Candle Meditation, A top meditation especially for anyone having problems visualising. This meditation is a good tool for working your third eye, for learning to understand and intepret symbols given to you in meditations, which will in turn increase you development communicatively with your spirit guides and often gives amazing insight into our paths at present. Again as with any meditation you try on these pages if you have any problems please do tell us or if you have difficulty understanding what you got during the meditation, post it up and we will work through it with you. Make sure you have your candle! It doesnt matter what size it is or how fancy or not!! just the flame were interested here.

Firstly Ground and Protect before you do any meditation, this is very important and cannot be stressed enough! If for any reason you are not sure of Grounding/Protecting please do not attempt these meditations, untill you have read up on the grounding and protection forums.

Now once you have done this takes some deep breathes, breathing in love and light and positivity and breathing out any negativity or stress, do this for a few minutes and get yourself nicely relaxed and open. Now you can either Gently ask your spirit guides to come forward, to be with you during this meditation and to give you insights, thank them for being there with you through this process, or you can simply just go straight onto focusing on the flame of the candle, that choice is your to make personally, again this meditation is very adaptable, but ive found it is a very good tool for learning to see with your third eye and enhancing your visualisations.

Now look at the flame of the candle now, watch it flicker and waver, look at the colours in it, dont strain your eyes, just focus gently on this but keep doing it for around 1 minute the first time or just under.... as a side note dont be suprised if you see things within the flame start to form this is a good sign!!

Now close your eyes and allow the images to manifest in your mind space, at first you may just see the candle again, or you may see balls or something all together entirely different, the images may move from left to right, up and down, develop into other things, no matter how silly it seems, it will be relevant... keep your eyes closed untill the images fade away, then gently come back open your eyes and write down everything u got, everything !!

Now go back and once again stare into the flame, again if you didnt the first time you may begin to see forms take shape in the flame, its important to write these down also by the way!! do this for a few seconds less time, close your eyes after say 40 seconds, let the images flow open your eyes write down the details... you can do this a few times, but i usually only do 4 times maximum, youd be suprised how much you actually get!!

Now Once again take some deep breathes, thank spirit for allowing you this wonderful experience and thank them for there protection whilst you were doing it. Close yourself down , however ya do this wether by prayer or by just thanking spirit and asking them to close your channels.

Now look back on your meditation and try to interpret it, what colours you got, images, wether you saw people or places, what were they like? how do they feel to you? etc, now i know alot of people often find that its the case when looking back on past meditations they had logged, and only understood them some time later.

Please also if you are having any trouble with the interpretation, thats what this board is for, help with any meditaion problems, so write them up!

Much love Maia xxxxxxxxx
