We walk the center of the labyrinth, in this day of complete reflection, on the day of the full moon. The full moon is in Virgo, the hearth flame. The hearth flame of the reflective relationship of the feet is the balance each step provides – the energy exchange and the feedback loop for the base of balance energy exchange from earth.
We walk the center on February 28 by going into practice (students use the two places at once exercise, non students use your shadow) and working with our breath and feet chakras. As you inhale, let your foot chakras pulse out to meet earth. As you exhale, your foot chakras pulsate in, bringing in (with your breath) earth energy.
Imagine that you are in the center of your labyrinth. You walk and meet the rim of the center. Starting at the labyrinth center entrance, proceed clockwise while following the undulating rim of the center, as though you are walking up and down a series of gently rolling hills. As you walk up and down, work with your breath and with your foot chakras (as we did above), releasing and taking in all that is.
Interrelation of being
I stand, dancing around the center, pulsating with each step.
As I move to meet the earth, She meets me. When we meet, I fully take in.
I am one between earth and sky. Therefore, my moment fully is.
Empowered moment beckons me, like the dawn of emergence, where I experience the rhythm of walking.
- (Kiera Laike, 2006)
For March 1 and March 2: Continue to charge and walk the inner circle of interrelationship.

The Center of the Labyrinth
We enter the center of the labyrinth on February 26. On February 27, be with your reflective self. Sitting in the center of the labyrinth, the sacrum charges.

Continuing to walk the Labyrinth
February 18 - February 25:
For the rest of the cycle of the first labyrinth of reflection, walk it as it is meant to be walked. Each day, charge the opening (as you did on the 13th) and meditate on the path for the day. I will not confuse or aid by giving what information or experience may be there. Only that the human field is with you as you walk. Keep a journal of what comes up.

Entering the Labyrinth
February 15, 2010, if you feel you need to, you can repeat the 4 sets of 4 breaths from February 13.
For my students, use the “two places at once” technique to enter the labyrinth. Those not currently studying under me, allow your shadow to enter. We must never leave our bodies uninhabited.
When ready, enter and head straight west, one fourth of the way in. The energy, as you move straight west, is there to heal your feet chakras and (literal) footprint. How your foot meets the ground.
Walking the First Labyrinth
As you enter the labyrinth and walk to the west one-fourth of the way in, work on these specific directions below or just be in your practice. Let the energy of the labyrinth heal your feet chakras. The first disruption in our reflective relationship is the energy of pulse from our mother’s uterus. The energy flow through her uterus, as it contracts to meet the baby’s feet, her energy is transferred and becomes the base of the energy in our feet chakras from which we meet the earth (with every step).
Directions for those working with precision and intent: As you walk east, know that the pulse of the labyrinth, like a beacon to the center, is meeting your heel and swirling around your feet chakras. The meeting will clear fear, and turmoil, and non-welcoming or deadness if born by ceasarian section.
The path then will lead to the north. Some of you may want to fight the turning north – you will want to keep going straight. The illusion will be that it is more powerful. We must resist the illusion of “more power” and support ourselves in remembering that none of us can avoid the journey. The journey is as long as the universe is.
You turn north and head northwest. As you head northwest, allow your feet chakras to be fueled, with the pulse touching the outside line of the foot. The act of being met releases and heals the pain of aloneness, along with the fear of being met, i.e., when I am met, I am taken from not nurtured.
February 16:
If you feel you need to, you can repeat the 4 sets of 4 breaths from February 13. We head west again, moving so close to the center, yet not there – we are charging our energy. The heel and outside line of the foot (in Bio Self-Emergence theory) represent how we were met and how we meet.
A simple example: A mother is left alone in delivery, he father (in his own stuff) cannot be present. When the transition stage of labor begins – the male position of the east is not supported in physical form. The energetic gates of the west must be moved through alone – depending on the mother, her response will be varied – some.
Some examples:
Resentful of the baby – When meeting the energy in the feet chakras, this person will have anxiety or worry about whether, if they ask too much, will the person stay or resent them. No amount of insight therapy can clear these.
Some rage at the father – The energy meeting the baby is split. A longing will be there, yet a rage in meeting and being met - the not-so-good push-pull of intimacy.
February 17:
Breathe the 4x4 breath. Create the entrance vortex if wanted or needed. Use 2 places at once or have your shadow enter. Enter, walk, head east, turn north, head northeast, turn south, head southeast – being met. Head east, small turn north, curve around to head west.
As we walk this portion, in the year of the reflective self, we begin to heal the connection to self and movement. We are doing this so close to the center, yet a long journey away for becoming one with our reflective self of movement or pulse. All lines of energy connect through gapped junctions. As we walk the connections of self to sensing, to containment, the portal of connected movement is open and the gapped junctions begin to heal.

The Entrance to the Labyrinth
Begin on February 13, 2010, sometime after 9:50 pm EST, the beginning of the dark moon.
The journey to the reflective self is clear, yet never ending. The human relationship to the reflective self went off balance through many incidents over time. Here, it is not necessary for us to understand how our human reflective self waned (diminished), only that our reflective self is our ability to connect to, to see, and to be in proper relationship to the holographic aspects of the universe.
Each labyrinth we enter and walk this year will create a connection to our reflective self. Sit in Embodied Practice. Breathe in the breath of God. Allow the charge placed in your sacrum on January 3, 2010 to pulse - remember your connection between earth/sky and your soul essence.
Pause after exhale - hold pause for 5-10 seconds before inhaling. Using your right hand only, use your thumb to put pressure (only on the pause) on the inside line of your little finger nail. Do this 4 times. The entrance to the expanded self has come. Through water, I enter.
Inhale for 5-10 seconds. Using your right hand only, use your thumb to put pressure (only on the inhale) on the inside line of your little finger nail. Do this 4 times. The entrance of the center of self has come. Through earth, I enter.
Pause after inhale - hold pause for 5-10 seconds before exhaling. Using your right hand only, use your thumb to put pressure (only on the pause) on the inside line of your little finger nail. Do this 4 times. The entrance of "being with" has come. Through air, I enter.
Exhale for 5-10 seconds. Using your right hand only, use your thumb to put pressure (only on the exhale) on the inside line of your little finger nail. Do this 4 times. The entrance of expression has come. Through fire, I enter.
If you cannot see the 4 vortex rings that have come, it does not mean that they are not there. Allow them to merge and pulse.
Sit in the stillness and power of the dark moon, the time of greatest and clearest connection. Observe and be with the entrance in front of you. You have permission to allow the opening (and to be with it) to prepare you to enter on February 14.

Preparation
In our practice on February 11 and 12, when you bring in earth and cosmic energies, be with the energies. Know that the energies can begin to prepare your structure for entering and walking the emotional and physical path of balance. Allow the earth energy to nourish your bones and the cosmic energy to nourish the cell membranes. Release any fear of being cared for or not being cared for. You have permission to receive whatever is needed in whatever form is necessary to enter into the stillness (on February 13) which will allow the labyrinth to be revealed.

The Journey
The charging of the energy of the full moon has begun to move in from the aura and move into the cell membranes, where it will signal differently and ready your soul to begin a journey through the labyrinth.
For those of you following this blog who are not currently students of mine, I wanted to take a moment to explain the journey. Each of us long for the journey; it is one of the basic energetic principles of being. In our energetic longing, we must step carefully - it is easy to be seduced by the "story" of someone else's journey, to follow them, to then end up in the center of their labyrinth and receive a piece of their reflective being.
Each of our soul essences must make our own journey in and out of the labyrinth. For the most part, the journey, when walked, supported, and on the labyrinth (laid out by planetary rotation versus constructed by man) is beyond words. Each trip, for the most part, is beyond words. The labyrinth we will continue to prepare to enter is the labyrinth of balance. Balance in all phases and aspects, for most of us, is elusive. As we prepare to walk the cycle of balance, we will work on emotional balance. On 2/4, we prepare to enter the labyrinth on the dark moon.
Supported by the energy of the full moon and connected by the energy that is called alongside. From 2/4 through 2/12, we work with the inner layers of chakras. In Embodied Practice, we hold to the knowledge that the universe began from what I refer to as a sensing process, at the beginning of what currently is. The particles gathered closure and closure and as the gathered and compressed in on each other, they moved into a sensing relationship - the ability to transfer and share information about everything out of this relationship, they expanded out. From this, we know that sensing is the core of the living process.
The chakra rings we will work with for entrance to the labyrinth of balance on the dark moon of 2/13 (great date).
On 2/4 and 2/5, in your Embodied Practice, begin to work on emotional balance in the first chakra.
For those not currently my students, I see and understand the first chakra as the water chakra. All life on this planet came from water and continues to form from some relationship to water. When we bring this understanding, it allows things to line up with universal energetic principles.
Work with clearing, noticing, or having. Sometimes energy is ready to be cleared; sometimes it must first notice that it must be seen. Sometimes we must have the feeling or experience, because it is transformed in having.
Check the sensing core of your first chakra, fear of vulnerability of heart not supported (often a feeling of being hung out). Check in the body layer for fear of falling. Check neural layer for grief and lost neural connections. Check the soul layer, for fear of being without connection. Check for falsehood connected to what we use to orient ourselves in body, coming from loss of connection to the true reflection that orients our soul essence.
On 2/6 and 2/7, we work with emotional secrets that we think we keep from ourselves and from others. Check the sensing layers of the first chakra for secret feelings of disgust or anger at what happened to you or to others (continue to use the three: clear, notice, or have).Check the body layer of the chakra, looking for consumption energy, or right to have. Check the neural layer for dead feeling or craving for excitement (remember, we are checking for secret feelings and permission to know). Check in the soul layer for the need for justice or the need to control.
