01
Bring the challenge
Think of the most difficult situation in your life right now. Don't soften it, don't explain it away. Just recognize the point that feels dark, heavy, or separate from the Light.
In the month of Cancer, we meditate on the letters Chet and Tav. This page holds the practice Michael Berg shared for the Chet: placing the challenge inside the letter, touching the Source at the top of the structure, and letting the Light descend into what once looked like darkness.

How to do the meditation
02
Put it inside the Chet
Visualize the letter Chet as an ancient structure, with borders and a triangle on top. Put that whole challenge inside it, enclosed within the space of the letter.
03
Awaken the certainty
The reason something feels like a challenge is the lack of certainty that it comes directly from the Light of the Creator. If it comes from the Light, it also carries a possibility of benefit, correction, and blessing.
04
Bring the Light down
Raise your consciousness to the tip of the triangle, the Chai Ha'olamim. From there, see the Light descending into the darkness, connecting the Source to the challenge.
05
See it all filled with Light
Let the entire Chet fill with Light. The situation isn't outside of spirituality: it is reconnected to the Source and transformed into Light, into blessing, into joy.
Every challenge enters the Chet
Michael Berg almost promises: if, during this month, you take every challenge and every darkness and do this work inside the Chet, your vision begins to change. Fewer things seem disconnected from the Source. Fewer situations feel merely upsetting.
1
When something triggers pain, fear, or reactivity, pause for a few seconds before responding.
2
Visualize the situation inside the Chet, enclosed by the borders of the letter.
3
See the top tip radiating Light into the letter, until the entire situation is filled.
4
Say inwardly: this too comes from the Light of the Creator; this too can be for my benefit.
