Throughout history, humankind has stood in awe of mountains. The strength and endurance embodied in the rocky crags and sweeping slopes have inspired creativity and kindled courage for centuries. Mountains have been venerated by many cultures, which worshipped great summits as gods and sacred beings. In their looming presence, humanity has seen power, steadfastness, and resolve. Yet you don’t have to live near a mountain to tap into this vast energy of commanding grandeur. Because mountains are as unique in form as human beings, you may live beneath the steady gaze of a small mountain without even knowing it.
If there are mountains in your area, even small ones, spend some time enjoying the peaceful embrace of Mother Nature, which can be a potent meditation aid. If you don’t have mountains near you, grasping a rock or stone in your hand will enable you to easily tap into Earth energy. Visualize yourself at the base of a towering summit, and while holding the rock, tune into mountain energy. When you feel tranquil, express your intention to commune with your mountain and ask to receive its energy. Project your consciousness onto the mountain’s peak, and look down upon the flatlands over which it stands guard. Send light to the flora and fauna that call the mountain home.
Finally, ask the mountain to serve as a guide and give it your sincerest gratitude. If you were able to visit the actual plateau or summit, pass time with the mountain by camping, hiking, or picnicking upon it. Or, if your journey has been a spiritual one, use your imagination to survey the sights, sounds, and scents of your mountain. As your explorations progress, you will become ever more grounded, growing gradually into your personal power. When you are finished meditating with mountain energy, give thanks to this strong and powerful energy for sharing time with you.
