Shiva Shakti Meditation
Throughout this exercise, join your hands in Namaste, the two thumbs meeting at the heart.
Gently let us turn our attention to Shiva and Shakti in the root chakra. Shiva is active here,
focusing outwards. If the world threatens you, if you feel overwhelmed by the world, the Shiva
energy is not strong in your root chakra. Choose, and choose by Divine Will that you, the Shiva
of the root chakra, will give support and strength to Shakti, so that Shakti can receive messages
from the inner and the outer world and instruct Shiva upon how to change the world around you
and within you.
OM Namah Shiva! (to be intoned thrice)
Within and between the palms of your hands that are joined in greeting and blessing, feel the
interplay and exchange of Shiva and Shakti from palm to palm. ‘I am safe! I am safe! I am safe!
I give full permission for Shiva and Shakti to be in union, in this zone of safety and security.’
Riding along the central column of light that comes into the human form from deep within the
Earth, the union of Shiva and Shakti energies moves upwards, to reach the sacred temple of the
Goddess Creator. This temple is flooded with the most radiant golden light. ‘I am alive! I am
alive! I am alive! Shakti is life! Shiva is the living! I welcome life, and living!’ Allow Shakti to
receive the energy from the axis of light that comes into us from the bosom of the Earth. Allow
Shakti to receive.
With the fullness of life strengthening the union of the Shiva and the Shakti, energy moves to the
throne of the supreme monarch, the throne of Divine Authority, Shiva; the solar plexus chakra,
throbbing with power. That which Shakti has created in her temple, Shiva now manifests into
reality. ‘I powerfully create my reality! I powerfully create my reality! I powerfully create my
reality! I choose to take on Divine Authority, to destroy all that lies in the path of my fulfilment.
I choose not to abuse. I choose not to assault or attack, in any form. I choose to create my reality
only by the will of Divine Authority. I chose to honour all created impulses released from Shakti
and by her.’
In the power of this union, the energy moves to the heart, the two strands, weaving themselves
into each other. ‘I am love! I am love! I am love!’ Shakti speaks and Shiva replies: ‘I am the
force of love! I am the force of love!’
‘I choose peace! I choose to be Shakti energy in motion. I choose to be Shiva energy in action!’
This love, and this force of love, is expressed by Shiva’s words and Shakti’s silence, in the throat
chakra. ‘I choose to selflessly share my creations of light with all the world! I choose to share my
creations of light with all the world! I choose to share my creations of light with all the world!’
And together, God and Goddess ascend their thrones in the 3rd eye chakra, neither throne
bigger than the other, neither more prominent. Shakti’s inner vision, Shiva takes responsibility
to manifest as outward sight. ‘I perceive divine guidance! I hear divine stillness! I perceive
divine guidance! I hear divine stillness! I perceive divine guidance! I hear divine stillness!’
Separation vanishes, Shiva becomes Shakti, Shakti becomes Shiva, genderless, formless, in
union. The kundalini has risen in union, from the root to the crown. And as we breathe slowly
and deeply, this energy of union slowly descends the axis of light and resides firmly in the root
again.
Now before us opens a magnificent Star of David, the 6-pointed star, the sacred symbol of
the Shiva/Shakti union, the upward pointing male energy triangle in perfect union with the
downward pointing female energy triangle. ‘I choose to enfold the Star of David into my auric
field! I choose to enfold the Star of David into my auric field! I choose to enfold the Star of
David into my auric field!’
At the end of this exercise, when union is attained, your energy is 3oo times more powerful than
it was before you started.
Namaste, beloved friends! Namaste!
