A
Visit
to Meet Merlin
....in
the rock amphitheatre by the stream....

Have
you ever done a meditation before? It’s easy! I'm going
to tell you a story and all I want you to do is just to
relax and 'see' it as clearly as you can... it being what I
type.. the story. Sometimes people find it hard to see some parts
of it... easiest way to 'see' it is... when you enter your bedroom... its
pitch-black... you 'know' where things are... do that... 'know'
its there
Take
a deep breath... slowly in and slowly out... another... I
want you to imagine as clearly as you can... roots coming from the
soles of your feet and entering the ground... deep... deep into
the earth until they find bedrock...
With a tingle... they bind on securely... as they do,
warm... gentle... velvety... earth energy flows back up your roots
and into your feet... up through your calves... your knees... thighs... feel
this warming... thick energy flow into your abdomen... your chest... flowing
down your arms to your fingertips.
It stops for a moment at your shoulders... and that bit at the
back of your neck that aches after a night on the computer... feel
it gently massaging the knots out... soothing... easing... warming... like
a gentle massage from a loved one...
It moves up your neck... across your head... your temples...
cheeks... and jaw... especially that bit where the lower jaw
joins on to the skull... the bit that tenses when we grind our
teeth... allow the earth energy just to ease and relax all those
muscles and areas... for a few moments, just enjoy this feeling...
of being relaxed... grounded... linked to Mother Earth.
ok... I
want you to imagine that we stand at the side of a stream... trees
beside us... the stream burbling and flowing beside us... its
a sunny day... warm... the birds sing and play in the trees
beside us... the stream is so clear... as it splashes against
rocks... rainbows dance... its so clear you can see the bottom
of the water... minnows and small fish dart... a family
of ducks swim to the far bank... their colours like oil on water... purple
and blue sheen on their sides
Around us... wildflowers... their heads raised to the sun... you
may even smell their scent... there is an animal trail alongside
the stream... we follow it... keeping pace with the water... our
aches and pains no longer trouble us here... we feel younger and fitter....
Notice
all you can... notice and remember what you are wearing... what
we wear... colours... type of clothing... as we walk...
overhead I can see a huge eagle... floating on air currents... his
massive wings outstretched
In the trees... beautifully clad birds flit from tree to tree... squirrels
run up to their dreys... their tails upright and stiff... a family
of deer... mottled with the beams of sunlight shining through the
tree canopy... I can see ahead that the stream bends round and
becomes hidden by an outcrop of massive stones
As we get closer... the rocks... massive and pale... jumbled and leaning
on each other... we stop just by them... they are huge....
but there is a path through and between them... we follow it and
come to a clearing ringed by these huge stones... I can still
hear the stream... but it is muffled by the wall of rock in this arena
place... sand under foot... golden... warmed by the sun... the
huge eagle still watches over us... high in the sky
I can
see that the rock formation provides us with seats... and
indicate to you to get comfortable... it’s so peaceful here...
calm... a haven...
As
we sit... recline in the sunshine... we become aware that footsteps
approach through the tunnel of rock we have just come through... an
old man comes... his steps are slow and aged... his hair
grey... and beard long... oh his eyes are so gentle and full
of wisdom... laughter lines crease the sides of them
He
walks with a staff of some dark wood... its knotted and carved...
well worn... with a large crystal at the top... the bottom of
it has a metal protected point... where his hands rest... its
bound with soft material... its a fabulous staff...
We all see him slightly different.... so I will describe
him as I see him... he’s about 5ft 8in. tall... medium
build... I can’t tell his age... but he is so old and wise... he
laughs at us staring at him... stands in the centre of the arena..
and just belly laughs at us... our impertinence... he’s
not an insect to be looked at under a microscope... he laughs... we
can’t help ourselves... we smile and laugh with him
As
we settle ... his silence draws our attention... he starts to
speak... its a language I nearly recognise... but I feel
he’s saying something different to us all... listen to what
he has to say to you... if you can’t hear it clearly...
just accept a word that has great meaning to your current situation...
As he finishes speaking like this to us... he welcomes us all... he
tells us his name is not important... to some he is Merlin... to others,
he has a different name... he tells us that we can meet him here any
time... and for the last few minutes he is going to give
us all some healing and energy... He tells us to settle... get
comfortable and feel the warmth of the healing he sends...
He
smiles as we thank him... says that anytime we need it... come here
and receive some more... or just come and sit in the calm...
but for now... this is enough... its time to come back... he
waves his staff and the light gradually fades... soon it
is pitch-black and with a deep shuddering breath... we
return..
Take a sip of water and allow yourself to gradually fade back
into the real world.
Thank
you all !
