Day 194

Becoming Earth

What You’ll Need:

• A 5–6 inch green taper candle

• Earth oil

• Earth incense

• Bowl of earth

To begin, light a green taper candle and sit down facing the north. Place the bowl of earth in front of you and the candle behind that. With your middle finger, dab a drop of earth oil at the base of your spine and at the crown of your head, at the levels of the root and crown chakras. Light the earth incense and gather some of the wafting smoke into your hands and bring your hands toward your face. Repeat this cleansing with earth energies twice more.

Focus your attention on the soil in the bowl before you. Allow your breathing to become deep and rhythmic. Continue to focus intently upon the earth, barring all other thoughts. Allow your mind to become the earth. Feel your body become the earth; it feels cold, moist, and heavy. Imagine that the place where you are sitting also becomes soil. Focus intently so that nothing exists but earth, clay, mud, stone, or however you experience the energies of earth. Stay focused, preferably for 20 to 30 minutes.

When you are done, take time to close your eyes and imagine that your earth-body becomes your usual natural self once again. Get down on your hands and knees and place your forehead to the floor to ground and center your personal energy.

When you are ready, open your eyes and stretch. Take time to journal about your experience or to discuss it with a friend.
