SPIRAL PILLAR OF LIGHT
(Adapted from a meditation of author/channel Barbara Marciniak.)

Keyword: Centering
Description: This meditation activates the boundaries of the aura, creating a powerful circle of safety and healing. The pattern pulls energy in spirals from the heavens to the center of the Earth, creating a pillar of living light. This is the center of the storm: The winds are howling all around; within this space is calm and peace. It is sacred space, a place to go for connection, protection, renewal, and resolve. It is unconditional love.

Benefits:
1. Strengthens boundaries and promotes centering.
2. Harmonizes the aura and supports spiritual alignment.
3. Enhances inner strength and resolve.
4. Promotes calmness, inner peace, balance, clarity, and focus.
5. Provides protection from unwanted influences.

Use to:
1.  Create sacred space.
2. Cleanse rooms, buildings, gardens, and so on.
3. Enhance focus and clarity in times of mental exertion. Establish balance when feeling off center, overwhelmed, or in shock.
4. Establish safety. Maintain your boundaries during chaos, conflict, or draining situations.
5. Contain and transform your own destructive projections.

Flow Pattern:
1. Sit, stand, or recline.
2. Visualize yourself standing on the Earth.
3. Breathe in deeply and, with each inhalation, imagine cascading spirals of light descending into, through, and around you.
4. Visualize this energy filling and enveloping you as it descends into the Earth. See the light becoming a pillar of safety and healing.
5. Imagine this spiral pillar coming from a specific source in the sky, a star that represents your spiritual Source and connection.
6. While suspended within this spiraling energy, invite spiritual guidance to be present with you for the highest and best good. Let the source in the star be your spiritual Source-your star.
7. Breathe into this image; notice your feelings, sensations, emotions, and thoughts.
8. Expand your inner strength and calmness with peace, focus, and clarity.
9. Radiate your energy outward to meet the circumference of light.
10. Merge with the spiral pillar of light, coming into alignment with higher frequency.

Variations:
Eliminate the spiral; see the energy as a pillar of light; or eliminate the pillar and imagine a cone of spiraling energy. Does one feel more comfortable? Does one have more energy, strength, or flow? What is activated in you with each?

The descending energy can be any color you tune in to. Is there a color your body is craving, a specific emotion you want to radiate? Choose the color that magnifies this emotion and create the spiraling pillar of light in that color.

 When feeling internal negativity, activate the spiral pillar to avoid projecting your emotions onto others in a harmful way, or hooking into their energy field and draining them.

Let your projections of fear, pain, or anger extend outward to the edge of the pillar. Here they can be absorbed, transformed, and returned as loving self-acceptance and understanding.
