Autumn Jones: slow down, ground and retrieve attention
Ideas hereAttention and resistanceChakrasGroundingNeutralityOwnership
Autumn Jones gives a Get Your Space meditation for daily use, before class or before reading time. The practice starts by making the room quiet, sitting with both feet flat and letting the eyes close. Feelings, thoughts, sensations, warmth, cold, pain and softness are noticed without needing to fix them.
The first shift is speed. Work, the previous night and the day can slow down. From that slower space, create a grounding cord from the first chakra to the center of the earth. Let it have the material, color and vibration that work for you. Its job is downward release.
When attention drifts, slide it back into the center of the head. This is the place of neutrality and charge. Each foot chakra then receives its own grounding line to the center of the earth, spins and opens 100 percent so pressure and foreign energy can release.
Earth through legs, cosmic through back, mixture through front
Ideas hereChakrasEarth and cosmic energyGroundingOwnership
Earth energy enters through the feet chakras and moves through the feet, ankles, calves, knees, leg channels and first chakra. It clears what is not yours and releases charge around safety down the grounding cord. The practice keeps returning attention to the center of the head while the body runs energy.
Cosmic energy comes from a new point in the cosmos. It enters through the crown, moves down the back of the head and back channels, and meets earth energy at the first chakra. The front-channel mixture is more cosmic than earth. It moves up through the body, throat and face, meets again at the seventh chakra and fountains into the space.
The hand chakras spin and open 100 percent, and cosmic energy runs through the arms and hands. The lower settings are first chakra 10 percent, second chakra 10 percent and third chakra 50 to 60 percent. Attention remains at the sixth chakra in the center of the head.
Room grounding is a separate preparation
Ideas hereEarth and cosmic energyGroundingOwnershipRoses
Room space is handled separately from body space. Notice the quality of the room and whether your energy likes being there. A gold bubble surrounds the room so it is distinct from everywhere else.
Blue lines run from each corner to the center of the room. That center point grounds downward. Earth energy moves through the walls, ceiling, floor, furniture and objects to uncrowd the room. Cosmic energy joins it so the room can hold your energy.
A protection rose goes at the edge of the gold bubble. The body stays grounded in the center of the head while the room is set. The room becomes yours without replacing the body as the place where practice happens.
Retrieve life force while remaining in one's own space
Ideas hereAura and layersChakrasGoldOwnershipRetrieving personal energyRoses
Create and destroy roses first. Then send a rose to collect the life force you have left elsewhere: with loved ones, at work, on the planet, off the planet, in the past or in the present. The important part is that you stay in your own space while the rose goes out.
When the rose returns, bring it near and notice how concentrated your own life force feels. It may feel normal, weird or uncomfortable. Move the rose above the gold sun and explode it so the life force goes into the sun.
The gold sun fills from the top down: seventh chakra, sixth, fifth, fourth, third, second and first. It also fills the leg channels, feet chakras, back channels, front channels, arm channels, skin, muscles, bones and aura. Tell the body the meditation is ending, open the eyes gently and stretch.
Retrieving attention and retrieving life force are related, but they are not the same. Attention is brought back to the center of the head. Life force is gathered into the gold sun and distributed through body and space.
Amber Kuba: body safety and cleaned attention precede flow
Ideas hereAura and layersChakrasGoldGroundingOwnershipRoses
Amber Kuba's version also begins as a daily, before-reading or before-class Get Your Space meditation. Sit in a private, comfortable chair with both feet flat. Notice whether breath is easy, tense or mixed. Let the chair support the body.
The first chakra begins to spin. A rose represents the vibration of safety the body wants today. The grounding cord is created from that rose, from the back of the first chakra to the center of the earth, and it includes the aura so the whole space can release.
A second rose collects attention from work, school, attraction or anywhere else it has been left. Neutral gold runs through the rose to clear what is not yours. Then the rose moves into the center of the head and explodes, filling that space with your attention. The center of the head receives its own grounding cord.
This version supplies specific mixing and distribution ratios
Ideas hereAura and layersChakrasEarth and cosmic energyGroundingNeutralityOwnershipTrance as a class setting
The feet chakras spin, open 100 percent and each get a grounding cord. Fresh earth rises from the core of the earth through the feet, legs, hips and first chakra, then helps release through grounding.
Neutral cosmic energy enters through the seventh chakra, moves through two neck channels and then through four channels down the back to the first chakra. Ten percent of the cosmic energy goes down the grounding. The remaining 90 percent moves up the front channels. Ten percent of the earth energy joins it there.
A third of the combined flow moves through the arms and hands into the aura. The remaining two thirds rises through the neck, face and crown and fountains into the aura. The aura layers clear with neutrality when they are ready to let go.
The trance settings are first chakra 10 percent, second chakra 10 percent and third chakra 50 to 60 percent. The seventh chakra becomes clean gold, and the day is unmatched. These ratios belong to this version. They are not merged with Autumn's more-cosmic-than-earth mixture.
Seniority gauges: survival, emotion, action and identity
Ideas hereAura and layersGoldGroundingOwnershipRosesSeniority
Each aura layer receives a rose for seniority and a percentage gauge. The rose is grounded. Neutral gold clears what is not yours. The gauge rises to 100 percent, then the rose and gauge are destroyed. If the first-layer gauge does not reach 100 percent, a psychic finger can move it there as an intentional image.
The first layer asks how senior you are in survival and body space. The second asks whether you own your emotions, feelings and sexuality, or whether someone else's emotions have taken precedence. Gold of transformation and forgiveness clears the second layer.
The third layer asks whether action is being created for you or for others, and whether that works. The fourth asks about identity and love, and how owning identity changes life. Grounding checks interrupt the sequence, and there is no need to judge if grounding has to be remade.
Communication, vision and knowing each receive a separate rose
Ideas hereAura and layersGoldGroundingKnowingnessOwnershipRosesSeniority
The fifth layer asks about communication and expressing truth. The sixth asks whether you own your vision, or whether someone else's perception of the world has taken precedence. The seventh asks whether knowledge and communication with higher self are senior in your life.
Each receives the same rose and gauge process: ground the rose, run neutral gold, let the gauge rise to 100 percent, observe the shift, then destroy what you are looking at. In the sixth-layer instruction, your vision being all that matters means seniority inside your own space. It does not make your perception the law for everyone else.
Between layers, return to grounding and the center of the head. Let the body adjust as each layer vibrates at your seniority.
Fill layers inward, fill body and define the edge before return
Ideas hereAura and layersChakrasGoldGroundingOwnershipRoses
The gold sun fills the seventh aura layer first, then moves inward through the sixth, fifth, fourth, third, second and first. It then fills the seventh chakra, back channels, feet, legs, front channels, arms, body and every chakra.
A protection rose marks the edge of the space. A final rose is moved out and destroyed. Tell the body the meditation is ending, open the eyes, stretch and enjoy being senior in your space.
This inward refill through the aura layers is different from Autumn's chakra-by-chakra refill. The two meditations share grounding, attention and gold-sun principles, but each has its own route.
