Take several deep breaths, centering yourself. Allow your breath to open and expand yourself within. Let Love and Light follow the breath, breathing it deeply into your Heart, filling your entire BE-ing with every beat.

If you feel inspired to do so, you may at this time request the presence of a Master or Guide to accompany you on this journey.

Imagine you are standing on top of the Mother Earth, but from a different vantage. You are as large as your soul image allows you to be. Vast, tall and grand, you stand upon the Earth like an illuminated giant.

The Earth Mother rotates and spins before you, allowing you to view from all sides. Do you Love all that you see unconditionally? Are there parts of this Earth you condemn or judge? Are there places you perceive as more beautiful than another?

This vision of the Earth is a Mirror of you. As you continue gazing at the different parts of the Earth, allow Love to go before and after you, washing the Mother with divine grace. Allow yourself to forgive and Love those parts of the Earth you find challenging to Love.

Notice if you find yourself challenged to Love parts of the Earth because of the people and ideas that resonate there, not so much the Earth Herself. Allow yourself to go beneath the ideas of the people, to forgive them at this NOW moment, and focus on loving the Earth.

As you gaze upon the Mother, a large mountain range appears like a wound turned inside out. Effortlessly you simply peel it off like an old scab. Beside you a round glass ball appears, and you place this mountain range within the glass ball. You are surprised that it fits, for the glass ball is small enough to hold in your hand, and yet it contains the grandness of this mountain range.

As you hold this glass ball and gaze within, you are reminded of that which you are challenged to Love about yourself. Perhaps there is an old illness or wound; maybe you are suddenly thinking of someone you have resentments with; maybe there are childhood issues that have formed this scar. This mountain range has been formed from your experiences of transmuting Fears into Love, pushing up the issues into the Light, and letting them take on new form.

Allow your feelings to come forth as you gaze at the range of your experiences. All your pains, battles and triumphs are marked upon these hills. Hold this glass with both hands and allow the feeling of Forgiveness to flow through you into the ball.

Ask yourself if there is a place within your physical body that mirrors the wound within the glass at this NOW time. If so, place your hand upon your body and send it Love. Notice how the wound within the glass ripples with Light and color as you send yourself Love.

Our wounds are the experiences which have carved and polished the Jewel of Self into Who We Really Are. You may have been challenged to Love your wounds, or others may have put you down or misunderstood you for the wounds you have experienced. At this NOW moment, send Love to this wound within the glass, thanking it for all you have learned.

You are a BE-ing of supreme Love and Light. All that you ever really are is that spark of IS-ness created from the ignition of Mother-Father God. Within and without, you ARE the image and likeness of your Creator. You can release your woundedness now, because it no longer Mirrors Who You Really Are.

Send Forgiveness to any people you feel are connected or related to this woundedness. These connections to others are now released so that they may be transformed and uplifted. You release these connections so that you will not allow others to empower ideas of your woundedness. You release these connections in order to walk in loving balance and harmony with others.

You may have carried thoughts that suggest you should hold onto your woundedness. You may even have chosen to carry your wounds before you like a badge of honor, or a threat and a warning to anyone not to get close to you. But your wound is outside of you now, within this glass. You no longer have to carry your woundedness. It is safe to walk in wholeness.

Take a moment to imagine all the power, time, and breath you ever gave away to this idea of self woundedness. Visualize all the times you put yourself down for "not getting it", "being too slow", "not being enough", "too different", and any other thought that made you feel less than All You Are.

Now slowly take a big full breath, from your belly, breathing up all the power you ever gave away�?and on the out breath send these images and thoughts into the glass. If you need to take a few more deep full breaths to get it all out, do so.

Tears may come forth as you begin to feel a re-lease within yourself. You are re-leasing this space and place within you, letting the new tenant be a tenant of Self Love. Direct your tears into the glass ball as well, watching them turning into snowflakes like those miniature snow scene globes you find in the department stores.

Ask yourself at this time if there is anything else which keeps you holding onto ideas of woundedness within. Allow these ideas to be re-leased into the crystal globe. Continue breathing Love and Light into your BE-ing.

Take a moment now to look at this image of your woundedness. Thank this collection of ideas for all you have learned from the experiences you wove together. In Gratitude, you can release all connections to this thought form.

You gaze upon the Mother Earth now. Where once a great and vast mountain range stood, now a beautiful lush deep canyon holds home to bighorn, eagles, and clear running rivers with mossy banks. The Earth sparkles like the Jewel She really is.

The Heart of the Mother is grateful for Her wounds. They have made Her unique, able to have various landscapes and places for Her Children to roam. Like Her Children, She is ever changing, forming, growing, learning.

Imagine the Mother Earth standing before you now. Like the proud Warrior you are, you hand this crystal globe to Her, in honor of the Mirror You Are, and the Mirror She Is. Together You place this globe in the Hands of Creator, in honor of All That Is.

Because you have taken the time to go within so deeply at this NOW moment, in the days to come ideas and images of your woundedness may come forth. Simply direct them into the globe, sending Love and Light along with them, and allowing healing Love to form new ideas that honor and empower you.

Now you can begin new adventures in Unconditional Love, Forgiveness, Patience, Trust, Gentleness. Just like the Mother, you are a gracious Mirror of Beauty, Strength, and Fortitude.

Just like you, the Mother allows Herself to shape shift from tears of rain and winds of change. Just like you, She endeavors to persevere. Simply because She Loves, and because She can. And just like you, She is stronger than you know.

Welcome Home, and thank you for sharing.
