Salt Water Purification Meditation
This is one of the basic meditations that should be practiced regularly, but especially during periods of high anxiety or depression or when undertaking heavy responsibilities.
Fill a cup with water. With your athame, add three mounds of salt, and stir widdershins. Sit with the cup in your lap. Let your fears, worries, doubts, hatreds, and disappointments surface in your mind. See them as a muddy stream which flows out of you as you breathe, and is dissolved by the salt water in the cup. Allow yourself time to feel fully cleansed.
Now hold up the cup. Breathe deeply, and feel yourself drawing up power. Let the power flow into the salt water until you can visualize it glowing with a blue light. Sip the water. As you feel it on your tongue, know that you have taken in the power of cleansing, of healing. Fear and unhappiness have become transformed into the power of change. Empty the leftover water into a running stream, or down the drain.
