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.
Awaiting the entrance of the labyrinth of balance, Kiera
Thanks for posting. It really helps reinforce and enhance what we have been introduced to in class.
ReplyDeleteFor much of the last two weeks I've been focused on settling and running wise water to deal with some stressful reactions to personal events. Now I can begin to see these in a larger context.
Do I ask for permission for emotional balance in my first chakra and then ask whether i need to clear,notice or have? Or, if you are already experiencing some emotional imbalance is it a good practice just to clear the 1st chakra with gold? Or is the wise water doing that when i run it?
Thanks?
During meditation this morning I realized I could not bring to mind the exact wording used in the clearing out of the 1st chakra. I gave the direction to clear as directed of what was read. I know that the written and read information is somewhere stored in my being.
ReplyDeleteMitchell, thanks for sharing. I often find myself trying to "get the instructions right" and forget about the overall aspect of surrendering and trust. Thanks for the reminder.
ReplyDeleteNote to readers just joining the blog: Know that, in some form, the energies have been with you. Read from the beginning of the year, then start the practice exercise for the day (don't do the previous ones).
