all right welcome to this dream space this dream Zone so just starting here by taking a moment to arrive fully to come into your body and to sort of Leave Behind for the moment any other distractions or concerns thoughts of other things you might close your eyes if that feels good and I invite you to breathe into the center of your being wherever that makes sense for you many people feel this in their chest or their solar plexus but everyone's different we'll just take three deep breaths here one two and three and now dropping your
awareness even deeper grounding down through your body feel your weight dropping all the way down like sand in a sand timer feel your whole body growing heavier and heavier down from your head through your throat and neck your shoulders chest down through your belly and abdomen feel it pooling into your pelvic Bowl and then down your legs your thighs your calves into your feet and then rooting into the ground beneath you and just seal this in with one great deep breath in through the nose inflating the belly and out through the mouth pulling your belly
button in towards your spine all right now if you've chosen to work with a candle or fire you can just open your eyes here and softly Focus your Gaze on the flame and now just let your imagination open up to you like a book or like a portal opening before you just letting the images and the vision arise naturally from your deep mind showing you what it wants to show you and first here maybe you just see Darkness or maybe a white mist and out of this emerges your character perhaps you already know who this
person is and perhaps this is someone just coming to you for the first time right now either way just take this moment to really see this person as if you're seeing them for the first time and maybe you are let the details rise up and just watch and notice what do you see maybe this character is human maybe not although my language will assume that they are but what does this character look like just watch let them show you what details emerge clothing their hair their face tall are they what's their body language and posture
how are they moving and what is your sense of how old this person is King Ark represents the final initiatory experience of the second act of life it's the bridge between all the power of midlife and the beginning exploration of the Elder years to come so this character is traditionally someone deep into middle age approaching the third Act of their life perhaps in their late 40s to Mid 60s but they don't have to be and they certainly don't have to be male so just notice what comes up for you what feels right for your story
now consider what is around this person
