November 2025: Clarity, Release, and Renewal

11/3/2025

This month invites us to come home to ourselves — to slow down, soften, and connect with the parts of ourselves that are asking for deeper care and acknowledgement. The Taurus Beaver Supermoon brings a longing for steadiness and comfort, while the Scorpio New Moon later this month stirs transformation in the more subtle layers of our hearts and bodies.

Lately, I’ve been noticing old patterns resurfacing — those familiar whispers of self-doubt and “not-enoughness,” mixed with frustration around how my body is changing through perimenopause. Instead of always resisting them, more often I’ve been asking: How might these stories be showing up for me? What if I could meet them with curiosity, compassion, and a little more trust in the wisdom unfolding through me?

As the holiday season nears, I’ve been reflecting on how I want this time to feel — more grounded, intentional, and aligned with who I am now.
This is the spirit behind this month’s practices: to help us pause, release what’s heavy, and renew our inspiration.

In this month’s blog, you’ll find the Exhale of Release & Inhale of Renewal Meditation Ritual, thoughts on the Metal Element’s wisdom of letting go, and gentle Akashic journaling prompts to release what's heavy and outdated and renew your mind, body, and spirit.

*May these practices help you create space for clarity, calm, and a deeper sense of peace this November.

Honoring the Pause: The Metal Element’s Call to Clarity and Care
As autumn settles in, nature teaches us the quiet beauty of release, of shedding, of setting down. The trees surrender their leaves with ease, and the crisp air reminds us that letting go is part of life’s natural rhythm. In the Five Element Theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine & Energy Medicine Yoga, this season aligns with the Metal element, which governs the lungs and large intestine—the organs of breath and release.
Metal energy invites us to exhale what we no longer need—old emotions, patterns, or grief—and open space for clarity, inspiration, and renewal. When we release gently, we restore flow to both body and spirit.

Mantra for November:
*With each exhale, I release what no longer serves me. With each inhale, I welcome clarity, courage, and renewal.*
Let this mantra move through you as a breath practice—softly repeating it with each inhale and exhale. Feel how your body responds to the rhythm of release and restoration.

Journaling Prompt
> What am I ready to release to feel lighter, clearer, and more aligned with who I’m becoming?
Notice what arises without judgment—old patterns, emotions, or ways of being—and gently thank them for what they taught you before letting them go.

> Try this Energy Medicine Yoga - Metal Element Hold to release excess grief, and support letting go with trust:

Place one hand on the crown of your head and the other over your forehead.
Inhale through the nose, slowly and deeply.
On each exhale, make a “Ssssss”sound through the mouth, imagining layers of tension or sadness melting away.

Continue until you feel a sense of spaciousness and ease.

This month, let the Metal element guide you to:
✨ Let Go with Grace — release what’s heavy or outdated.
✨ Find Clarity — discern what truly supports your well-being.
✨ Honor Your Energy — create space for rest, renewal, and inspiration.

Autumn isn’t an ending—it’s an invitation. As you breathe, release, and soften into the season, you make room for what’s ready to be renewed within you.

🌬️ Exhale Release & Inhale Renewal:
Meditation Ritual

A November Practice for Softening, Surrender, and Spacious Clarity

🌿 Setting the Space
Before you begin, choose a quiet and private space. Gather your crystal and plant allies (below), then settle in and get comfortable.
> Crystals:  Lepidolite for soothing emotional currents, Selenite for clearing, and White Howlite for peace and patience.
> Essential oils: Eucalyptus, Frankincense, and Cypress — together they open the lungs, center your spirit, and help release what’s ready to go.

> Diffuse a few drops of Eucalyptus and Cypress, or add them to a bowl of warm steaming water nearby. Let the scent gently rise and mingle with your breath — fresh, cleansing, and expansive.
> Place Lepidolite over your heart and White Howlite in your palm. Keep Selenite close, as a wand or stone to clear your field later.

🕊️ The Breath Offering Ritual
This meditation unfolds as a living ritual — a simple, sacred act of connection between your body, breath, and spirit. Step outside if you can, or open a window to invite fresh air. Feel the crispness of November — the way the air carries both endings and beginnings.

🌬️ 1. Begin with Awareness
Close or rest your eyes with a soft gaze.
Feel the rise and fall of your breath — without changing anything yet.
Notice how the air enters your body — cool, clear, alive.
Notice how it leaves — warm, carrying the imprint of what you no longer need.
Let this awareness be your first act of release: simply noticing what’s ready to go.

🌫️ 2. The Exhale of Release
Now, take a slow, deep inhale through the nose… and exhale through the mouth with a soft sigh — like the sound of leaves drifting gently to the ground.
As you exhale, imagine, sense, or feel the energies of tension, heaviness, or grief leaving your body and field. Let it dissolve into the air around you, offered back to the Earth for transformation.
Repeat this breath several times, feeling your chest grow lighter and more expansive with every exhale.
You might whisper softly:  I release what is complete. I exhale with love.
If emotion rises, allow it. Tears, sighs, or warmth are signs that energy is moving — that your lungs are doing their sacred work of letting go.

✨ 3. The Inhale of Renewal
After a few rounds of release, turn your attention to the inhale — a fresh current of clarity and light. Imagine, sense, or feel yourself drawing in soft, luminous energy — perhaps warm and golden, or silver-white in color.
Feel it as it fills your lungs, expands through your ribs, and spreads into your heart space.
As you inhale, silently affirm: I breathe in renewal. I receive ease, peace, and well-being.
If you wish, anoint your heart or throat with a touch of Frankincense — letting its sacred scent remind you that every breath is a prayer of rebirth.

🕯️ 4. Seal with Stillness
When you feel complete, hold the Selenite (or simply use your hands) and sweep it gently around your heart and shoulders — clearing away any remaining heaviness and sealing your aura with clarity and grace.
Place both hands over your heart. Feel the steady rhythm beneath your palms --
the meeting point of your inhale and exhale, your release and renewal.
Whisper to yourself: With each breath, I return to balance. With each exhale, I am lighter.  With each inhale, I am restored.

🌕 Optional Closing Gesture
If you’re outside, offer a gentle exhale toward the sky — a breath of gratitude for what has been released and what has been renewed. You might place your White Howlite stone on the ground or windowsill for a few hours, letting it absorb the calm of the earth as you integrate your own.

💫 Integration
Afterward, take a sip of warm water or herbal tea. You may wish to meditate or journal with the following reflections.
Akashic Reflections:

What did I notice myself releasing, shedding, setting down?
How does renewal feel in my body today?
What truth, clarity, or insight emerged as I softened into breath?
