A Month For Mandalas – Week 1 – Balance & Remembering the Dreams of Your Soul

September 22nd, 2014

This is the first day of the first week for A Month For Mandalas.  Today is the day of balance of earth’s day and night, the equinox.  It is a day of remembering our balance, of light and dark. The theme of this Month for Mandalas is Remember. Remembering the dreams of your soul, remembering the whispers and shouts of your true self.

This session of A Month for Mandalas starts with a meditation about balance and remembering.  (If  you are new to mandala making there are links at the end with how-to instructions.)

BALANCE & REMEMBERING THE DREAMS OF YOUR SOUL MEDITATION –
MEDITATION – BALANCE – REMEMBERING

Remembering is about listening to the yearnings of your soul, your authentic self.  The mystery of who you truly are is in the darkness of your depths.  The womb of your soul.  Listen and remember. Bring the balance of light and dark into your life.

Go into yourself and see how deep the place from which your life flows – Rainer Maria Rilke

Let these words and the meditation be a prompt for wisdom from your depths.  Use these inspirations to bring images and words to the surface, to the light.

Let this time of balance be an inspiration for your mandala work.

Here is more from the book created by Karen Martinez at last night’s mandala get together, inspired by a yoga workshop she attended and the beginning of this time of balance.

The one page book began with the word balance. Mandalas, circles, words and images followed.

HOW – TO – MANDALAS, This link is to a three part mandala online instruction course I created a few years ago.  These have printable instructions and guided meditations.

Let this month be an inspiration for creativity,  balance and remembering.

Please share your mandalas.  I will add them to my blog for others to be inspired.  Take a photo and send by email to “CreativityForTheSoul(at)gmail.com.  Please use the @ instead of (a).
