Musickal Meditations - Channeling The Chariot

It’s been a while, but we are back at it and ready to share our 7th Musickal Meditation, designed in the essence of The Chariot!

As with all meditations, you may opt to simply enjoy the music on its own, or work with some of the suggestions provided to perform a fuller ritual. We do hope you enjoy the sounds! We will be updating the YouTube page regularly as we add more tracks as well as storing all links on a separate page of this site, so they are easy to find! Keep reading to learn more about connecting with The Chariot.

Meditation Package - The Chariot in D Sharp

Background: The purpose of these meditations is to allow you space to connect with the 22 Major Arcana, which are, in many ways, separated aspects of ourselves. Each element of this project has been carefully considered, from the note selection to the length of the track to the written piece which accompanies it. The intention is to supply the user of the track with the musical essence of the Major Arcana in question to help them get in touch with their own inner archetype of that nature. We envision that one may use this as part of a regular meditative practice, to open up a card reading session, before or during ritual, or as a way to simply connect more with their deck.

Description for The Chariot: The Chariot is a symbol of our physical vehicle or current embodiment. As such, it is a tool with which we may navigate the physical sphere, under the direction of the cosmos and universal Will. If we can tap into this energy, we may become equipped with the proper fuel, momentum, and motivation to direct our resources in the most productive and effective way possible. Allowing ourselves to come into union with this force will ensure safety and protection on our voyage, as well as the perfect journey to meet our soul’s unique needs. The Chariot is equal parts fate and force, as well as having faith that the greater part of us knows exactly how to command us forward steadily to powerful results.

Reflect on the following passage below, designed to further set the stage before you begin.

What is in a name?

To know me by name
Is to mistake the shadow
For that which casts it;

Am I then the Charioteer,
Crowned in my Victory...?
Am I the illuminating Light,
Which shineth upon him...?
Am I the sacred dance
Between these two forces...?

Or are all such words
But hollow sounds
Born of lifeless scribbles —

The pale reflection of
A Reality that speaks
Through its very Being?

To know me
By name, therefore,
Is to hear the word,
But miss the call;

To truly know me
Is to feel the life
Which moves thee —

& to know it as
The same Life that
Flows through All.
