Draw in a breath,

and as you exhale,

that single breath,

your whole body

warms and relaxes.

LONG PAUSE

You draw in another breath

feeling the perfection

of your bed, 

cozy and soft.

LONG PAUSE

And as you 

sink deeper, 

your body 

completely unwinds.

LONG PAUSE

And now take a moment

and just be in your body,

becoming aware

of your breath

rolling through 

your chest and abdomen.

LONG PAUSE

Now, imagine, if you can

standing on a rock

that juts into the cool air

of the deep night.

PAUSE

And from your rock,

you can see every

heavenly body

visible to man

shimmering in the sky.

PAUSE

And the tiny, dazzling lights

look as if they’re moving–

moving around the earth

like a wheel of diamonds.

PAUSE

As you continue to stargaze,

your eye catches

the three stars of Orion’s belt

twinkling brightly from east and west

PAUSE

From the belt,

you find the rest of 

the constellation of Orion,

including the stars 

that craft this hunter's bow.

PAUSE

The mesmerizing lights above

beckon you to stay with them.

so you decide to lie down on the rock

in a toasty, fleece blanket

that wraps around you perfectly.

PAUSE

Snuggled up in your blanket,

you look back to the sky

and notice something has changed.

PAUSE

Now, see if you can imagine

the hunter Orion

stepping down from the sky

and onto an adjacent rock.

PAUSE

And, as he steps

onto the rock,

you notice the stars

that make him

gather into a human shape

that glows translucent

in the night.

PAUSE

The hunter does not see you,

and instead, 

draws back his bow

and aims into the sky.

PAUSE

Orion spies something

and releases his bow

high into the sky of jewels.

PAUSE

You watch as a crystalline arrow

soars into the sky

and then dissolves

into a waterfall of silvery lights.

.

PAUSE

Now, imagine if you can,

that Orion leaps back 

into the sky

chasing his mysterious quarry.

PAUSE

After a few moments,

you glimpse another constellation

vibrating intensely in the sky

like it wants to break free.

PAUSE

The seven stars

of Virgo shine bright,

brighter than any other 

stars in the sky,

until they gather

into a beautiful maiden

who steps down 

onto the rock nearby.

PAUSE 

Like Orion, 

Virgo is translucent and

shimmering with light.

She pauses, gazing at the sky

and then toward you

with a smile. 

PAUSE

Now, see if you can imagine

sitting up and staring

at the wonder before you.

PAUSE

Virgo, the maiden,

the goddess of Justice

and the Harvest,

says not a word, 

but you hear her

every thought.

PAUSE

Virgo raises her hand

and, in just a second,

shows you

all of Earth’s nature 

like a movie 

with the sky as a screen.

 

PAUSE

And as you watch

all the animals,

flowers and trees,

waterfalls, oceans, and mountains

stream before you,

you feel Virgo’s love

for it all.

PAUSE

And now, see if you can imagine 

that Virgo lifts her hand again,

only this time,

it is to touch yours.

PAUSE

And the translucent hand

gently covers yours

sending a vibration

through it,

a vibration of 

love for the Earth.

PAUSE

Before Virgo leaves,

you breathe in the love

until you feel all the 

animals, flowers and trees,

waterfalls, oceans, and mountains

living in you.

PAUSE

After a few moments, 

Virgo dissolves 

into the night,

leaving you

with a deep love

of all that surrounds you.

PAUSE

And, as you stretch out again,

cuddled in your blanket,

the silent, starry night

comes alive. 

PAUSE
