Trataka is a yogic purification and a tantric method of meditation that involves looking into the heart of a candle flame and eventually holding the image of the flame in the mind’s eye when the eyes are closed. 
It is said to bring energy to the “third eye” to promote connection to the Highest Self, while also tapping us into various psychic abilities. 

Join us this month for a candle gazing ritual combined with a shamanic visioning meditation. Set intentions, clear unwanted energy, get grounded, explore the other realm, or just enjoy moving into a peaceful state. 
 

SELECTING A CANDLE FOR TRATAKA (WRITTEN BY AWAKE & MINDFUL) 

While you can meditate with any candle, selecting candles of specific colors can influence your meditation and influence the qualities of the self. Depending on your goals, you may find meditation with a candle of a specific color will increase the effectiveness of your meditation. When buying candles, pay attention to what the candles are made from and avoid any candles that contain toxic substances. Soy wax or beeswax candles are non-toxic and burn longer than other candle types.

Here are the qualities of different colors:

White – Purity, clarity, innocence, simplicity, completion
Gold – Abundance, prosperity, wealth, spirituality
Violet – Commitment, reverence, higher consciousness
Indigo – Imagination, insight, wisdom, clarity of thought
Blue – Creativity, self-expression, communication, relaxation, trust
Turquoise – Independence, protection, healing
Green – Forgiveness, compassion, inspiration, hope, love, freedom, healing
Yellow – Ambition, inner power, self-esteem, self-respect, self-discipline, confidence, courage, generosity
Orange – Sensuality and sexual energy, friendship, optimism, happiness
Red – Courage, strength, vitality, survival, family bonding
Pink – Empathy, loyalty
