In light of what is going on in the world and closer to h(om)e, in our very own country, many of us warrior-healers are feeling beat up. Our own issues of exploitation, invasion and oppression are exacerbated by the current events in our society. So how does our healing collective create space within such a society that isnt created for our own best interest? My premise has always been: the most profound and lasting revolution is the up-rising of one's soul and the over throwing of the institution of one's mind. Our only recourse is the expansion of our spirits and the transcendence of this reality, one breath at a time. Lets use this Super Moon, and Jupiter energy, to regroup and harness the energy of the cosmos so that we can continue our ascension: We are the change we want to see in the world!
In yogic cosmology, Jupiter is associated with the index finger and is used most commonly used in Gyan Mudra, pressed against your thumb representing your ego. In Reflexology, the thumb is the acupressure point for the pineal gland. The Pineal Gland is said to be the highest gland and believed to be our connection to God. It is also said to be the “Angel” Gland that connects us to that realm. This super moon is a perigee full moon, which means the moons closest point to the earth for its monthly orbit. The moon is associated with our emotions, and symbolizes mother: woman and child. The moon is the nurturer and will help us use our past to clarify what we want.
"Jupiter is by far the largest of the visible planets. It has 13 moons that are attracted by its powerful magnetic field. Its energies are carried to the Earth by the solar wind. In contrast to the restrictive and inhibitory qualities of Saturn, Jupiter is expansive, generous, warm and jovial. Jupiter is the fire of nature, the warmth in all things" - Francis Melville
So lets release and expand to our prosperity!
TO BEGIN:
Sit in Easy Pose with the spine straight with chin in and chest out (Jalandhar Bandh). Rub your hands together and bring them to Prayer Pose. Inhale through the nose and chant ONG NA MO GURU DEV NAMO (I bow to the Divine Teacher within) on two breaths.
Listen to the Adi Mantra here:
LEFT HAND MUDRA: The Saturn (middle) finger crosses over the back of the Jupiter (index) finger. the other two fingers are locked down with the tumb. The back of the left hand rests on the knee.
RIGHT HAND MUDRA: The Jupiter (index) finger is straight up and the other fingers are closed and locked down with the thumb. Right elbow is bent and the right hand is about chin level. Move the finger around in a circle.
Listen to a recording of, or mentally project the mantra ANG SANG WAHE GURU which means "Infinite Being, God, is with me and vibrates in every cell of my Being."
For pronunciation of the mantra, watch this:
Concentrate on the spinning finger for 11 min.
