Take a few deep breaths to centre and balance yourself, releasing all tensions as you breathe out. 

Allow the following images to unfold before your mind.  You find yourself in the centre of a beautiful garden, surrounded by wild flowers and stunning plants.  Before you is a small altar.  Take note of what you altar looks like and whether or not there is anything upon it. 

There are four paths leading away from this central space, each moving in different directions.  When you are ready we will take the path that leads straight ahead. 

Take note of the colours of the flowers and what else you can see as we move onwards.  Eventually we reach a large wooden gateway and standing before it is a magnificent Archangel, in robes of yellow shot with violet and is holding a wand in his right hand.  This is Archangel Raphael and he guards the entrance to the Element of Air.  Approach Raphael and ask him for permission to enter this element… he nods his assent and leads the way through the doorway. 

You find yourself on top of an immense mountain.  A gentle breeze is swirling all around you.  Allow yourself to connect with the element of air. 

Here we may ask for healing on a mental level.  Ask Raphael to remove worries, negative thought patterns and old ideas from you.  As you do the wind begins to swirl faster all around you.  You can feel it begin to gust all around, cleansing you on a mental level.  Feel the wind move through you, releasing. 

After a while the wind begins to die down and we feel refreshed and at ease.  Give thanks to this element and make your way back through the doorway. 

Thank Raphael.  He in turn gives you a gift – this is your key to the element of air.  Make your way back now to the central space and place your gift upon the altar.  Pause to consider this object and what it means to you.  Allow the answer to come to you from the depths of your unconsciousness. 

When you are ready take the next path moving to the left.  Before long we come before another doorway and standing before it is Archangel Michael, guardian of the element of Fire, dressed in robes of fiery red and emerald green.  Michael holds in his right hand a flaming sword.  Ask permission to enter into this element.  Michael nods his assent and we step through the gateway. 

We find ourselves in a barren desert.  Above us the sun is beating down strongly.  Here we may gain more motivation and access our Will.  We can also release old anger that is holding us back and burn away the dross from within us.  Ask Michael for the healing of fire.  As you do the Sun begins to burn stronger and stronger and small flames begin to dance all around us.  The fire cleanses and carries away all negativity – allow this to happen in perfect trust. 

Soon the fire dies down and we find ourselves refreshed and renewed.  Give thanks to the element of Fire and make your way back through the doorway.  Michael hands you a gift – your key to this element.  Thank Michael and make your way back to the centre and place your gift upon the altar.  Pause once again to consider this item. 

When you are ready take the next pathway.  Again take note of what you see along this route.  We find ourselves once more in front of another gate.  Before it stands Archangel Gabriel, robed in blue and orange, and holding aloft a magnificent chalice.  Gabriel guards the entrance to the element of Water.  Ask permission to enter, Gabriel nods his assent and we make our way through. 

You find yourself before a beautiful lake, at the back of which is a glorious waterfall.  Enter the water and allow yourself to connect with the element of Water…  Here we may ask for healing and purification.  We can release old emotions that are holding us back.  Ask Gabriel for the healing of the element of Water, then head towards the waterfall and cleanse yourself underneath it.  Allow yourself to be purified totally on all levels. 

When you are done come back to the land and give thanks to the element of Water.  Make your way back through the doorway.  Gabriel gives you another gift – your key to the element of Water.  Thank Gabriel, return to the central space and place this gift on the altar.  Pause once again to realise what this gift means to you. 

Then take the next and final pathway…  We once again come before another doorway and standing before it is Archangel Auriel, the guardian of the Element of Earth.  He is dressed in robes of citrine, olive, russet and black – all the colours of the Earth and is holding some wheat sheaves.  Ask permission to enter into the Earth element and make your way through the doorway. 

You find yourself in a lush green pasture of verdant grass.  In the centre is a magnificent tree – make note of what type it is.  Walk towards the tree and sit down under it with your back against the trunk.  Allow yourself to connect with the element of Earth.  Here we may ask for strength and stability, and to keep ourselves grounded.  The element of Earth collects all the other elements and causes an influence to flow from Spirit.  Ask Auriel for the strength of Earth and allow yourself to merge into the tree.  Feel yourself growing up into the tree and also be aware of the roots beneath sinking deep into the earth.  Connect to the spirit of the tree and ask if it has any words of wisdom to share with you at this point. 

When you are finished allow yourself to sink down into your normal self, give thanks to this mighty tree being and to the element of Earth.  Return through the doorway.  Auriel in turn gives you another gift – your key to the element of Earth.  Gives thanks to Auriel and return to the central space.  Place your gift upon the altar and pause to think on what it means to you. 

After some time you realise you are not alone.  Besides you stands a glorious Archangel dressed in robes of brilliant white light.  This is Metatron, Archangel of the Source.  This central space within the garden represents Spirit and represents the place of your Soul.  Here you may ask for all the elements to be balanced within.  As you do butterflies flock from all corners of the garden and begin to swirl around you.  All the colours of the rainbow are represented.  They begin to move faster and faster around you, cleansing and balancing you on all levels.  Soon there are only specks of lights swirling around and through you.  Give yourself to the healing of Spirit. 

Soon they begin to slow down and gradually move away.  Give thanks to the element of Spirit for this healing.  Metatron steps in front of you and gives you one final gift.  Place this on the centre of the altar.  The Archangel also whispers a word in your ear – something that you need to hear now……. 

Look at the gifts on the altar and see how they relate to you…..  You now have access to all of these elements and may seek their healing and strength at any time…. 

When you are ready allow the garden to dissolve around you and find yourself back in this time and space.  Fully back in your body and fully grounded.  Tap your feet on the floor, wiggle your fingers and very gently open your eyes.
