Here is a really powerful meditation.
It takes you to a different place and is an introduction to a series of meditations that are designed to give you Elemental contacts and acceptance.
Let me know if you try it.
I have put this on before but I just cannot remember when.
Take time over this one.........
MEDITATION
It is night.
You stand on open ground, and above your head is the glory of God.
A chill wind blows across the land, and it is that time just before the dawn breaks to start a new day and there is a sense of anticipation...
Slowly you become aware that in front of you are two ancient standing stones capped by a large lintel stone. This is in the East, and the direction of the rising Sun.
To your right are another two standing stones but these are without a lintel across the top.
To your left are two more standing stones again without a lintel
Behind you is a deep pool of dark blue water. The stones and the pool form a circle around you.
You announce your name either magical or earthly and state that you wish to gain acceptance from the Elemental kingdoms
You look through the Eastern capped standing stone that stands before you, and you become aware that the Sun is about to rise as there is a glimmer of light beginning to spread across the distant Eastern horizon.
Suddenly the Sun rises between the two capped stones and a blaze of brilliant golden light bursts across the land toward you through the stones and fills you with light. The light goes through you and you feel it filling your very being.
You raise both of your arms in the form of the letter Y in salutation to the Sun, and behold a new day is born
Behold the golden dawn.
Stand as long as you wish, and do not think of anything. Any impressions that you may have should be written down immediately.
This is a magical exercise so do remember to treat it with respect. _________________ Please visit our main site

Hi David perfect timing I was looking for some time to mediate and here this is
I did this myself and this is what I saw/felt..
I love working with the elements
Firstly as I stood looking at the stones the earth below me shook and opened up my feet could feel the dampness of soil and the smell of new earth slowly I became aware that the water from the pool was surrounding me and I was standing waist deep in it..
I named myself and a female appeared and motioned to wards the horizon I looked to see great swirls of golden light appearing to rush forward toward me (it looked as though huge Griffins or some other golden winged creatures were the golden wind) as the sun rose and this "fresh wind" soon encompassed me I stood firm but it did move me with its swirls.
I looked down at my feet the water was gone and the earth was once again green a deep sense of warmth filled me and I felt as though I was basked in the suns warmth.
I took some time for me to return to this place I felt a pull toward flight with the wind although I didn't fly....
very enjoyable
you know a part of me wanted to go into the pool David I think next time I have the feeling I shall do so
thanks for sharing _________________ as a babe drinks from its mothers breast so too does man milk mother earth

Nothing too private so here is a short summary.
Initially your feminine side, and your mind, wanted to take you elsewhere, but you stood firm, and were not distracted. This is very good because this type of meditation is to be followed to the letter until the end when you have a choice of returning of staying for further input. From experience I can tell you that often the most valuable input comes unexpectedly, and right at the end.
The reason for the discipline is that a mage is always in charge, They do not look, they grab the power and use it under will, and if that mage is distracted then they lose all power to something which they cannot control.
I type this as I am still feeling this meditation physically.
As I read the instructions, it felt familiar to me, although I have never done this meditation before.
As I stood facing the stones, I knew that through the centre of the dolmen arch I would SEE.
The wind chilled me, and so defined me, gave me shape, although I was not as I am, I felt more like a stone rooted within the landscape, part of everything.
When I named myself, there was no sound, but it echoed inside me, both my name, then Morag, then something I couldn't quite catch. There was no change to the scene, as I was already entirely a part of it.
The pool behind me reflected the scene, and whilst i couldn't see it, it reflected slightly ...umm....off, no not "off", more I guess, deeply, clearly, with difference in its depth. Dunno, hard to describe it.
as the sunrise approached, through the anticipation, I felt apprehension, but the sun would wait until i was ready to welcome it.
I have lost a point of time from when the light touched my feet, the next thing I can recall, I had my arms stretched out the the sides and upwards, catching and basking in the light.

Seems I have had enough time off!!
As we are all made up of elements it is right that you should feel this meditation physically. Feeling familiar is good, meant to be I suppose. You are right about seeing through the portal although that is not it's only function.
The wind giving you shape is interesting. Air is mind, and I know I am always banging on about mind but this one is for you to look at. Feeling like a stone in the centre of all stones or elemental portals speaks for itself really. You are centred.
Pleased you didn't get all of your name as you are supposed to keep it too yourself. My fault for not saying so. And being part of all is the long term objective (smart a**e)
The pool represents the feminine and you see things on different levels. That's you alright.
Loosing a point in time is OK. It could represent surrender or a quick nap. I think the former more likely
The important thing with these and I guess most meditations is how you feel during and afterwards.
An observation in words that make little sense to me but I need to say them.
You see on many levels from the feminine side but no signs of the masculine.
It would be interesting to see how you balance that out should you choose to try. _________________ Please visit our main site

David I have a simple and most likely stupid question .. what is a mage? thanks
Just another word for occultists who believes that they are magicians.
It comes from the word Magi as indeed does the word magic.
We may play any game we wish in this life either mage or witch or football fan, but in the final analysis, all is just a game.
Try reading this and watching the way your thoughts react to what you are reading. Observe those thoughts and slowly let them go.
What is left is the place or the thing that you really are.
Ask yourself where those random thoughts come from and notice that you are not always thinking them. Also notice that they are utter nonsense.
So what is thought and who's thought is popping into your head to distract you from that place of peace that we all have within us. _________________ as a babe drinks from its mothers breast so too does man milk mother earth
When I said my name, I felt echoes, but each echo was a different name, each intermingled so no-one was distinguishable, and none more dominant or relevant than any other.
When I stated my wish, I felt a laugh, like it was such a silly request because it was so unnecessary. Not mocking, just amused.
Everything was happenning at once, simultaneously, not rushed though, just as I turned my attention, it was already there. No progression, more like visiting somewhere that you know. You can be there at any time, because you knwo what it is to be there.
ooooh wow!
I have been to see my aunt today,a strict Baptist,and she gave me this literature on the standing stones at Calanais on the Isle Of Lewis.
There is a Christian legend connected to them, but I was quite shocked that she would show an interest in this. I was perusing the forum,when I came across this meditation,I nearly fell off my chair!
I shall try this med. later [I won't be telling auntie!]
tried it...........i have a stiff neck-a few years ago in meditation i felt a force moving my head in a healing way........in some quite unusual moves......
this occurred when i did this tonight.........and my neck feels better...
