Eye of the Lotus
In my understanding, having been an energetic healer and counselor for over 10 years, I have found that 95% of all communication is not verbal, nor physical. It is energy on many levels. Certainly, you have walked into a room before and encountered someone you do not know, yet you’ve had a feeling about that person, good or otherwise. And whether you are sitting in a movie theater, a restaurant, or standing in an elevator, you emanate a quality of energy in all directions at all times that is the energetic unique signature of your being.
That same energy is the signature of you as an individuated spirit, a multidimensional being who is unique in the universe. It is that same 95% that creates the meetings with others, that creates the relationships in which you engage, that creates the possibility for you to learn a life’s lesson.. And at first, this presents us with an interesting puzzle of life. We live in a oneness with no separation, yet we are unique beings.
We use words like “I think,” and “I see,” and “I believe,” and yet there is no separation between us as we exist in this oneness of being. It is quite an enigma, for it is that very same oneness that allows an intuitive healer to tap into you, whether you are there in the same room or speaking on the telephone, separated by a great distance. In metaphysics, there is no space and no time. They are not limiting factors in the information, wisdom and healing that is available on all levels of our being.
So often this is difficult to embrace, because most of us in western society tend to only regard the physical being as viable, with little consideration for those parts of us that are non-physical, but every bit as viable to our existence. It is necessary to embrace that part of our nature that is not physically borne, not because it is on some other level, but because our metaphysical nature coexists seamlessly with our physical nature in a continual exchange of life energy.
It is that very same oneness where reality exists, where the boundaries between the physical and the non-physical evaporate in the light of greater understanding of our true nature. We are, as human beings, composed of four archetypal energies: mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual. Look at most tarot decks, and you’ll see the four minor arcana suits are divided into these same distinctions of human character. I
t is the congruence of these energies, flowing along together through time, that allows our lives to be productive and meaningful. If one or more are out of balance, suffering ensues as our illusions in life are challenged by the realities we encounter.
So as we go along through life, composed of these four components of being human, the energies exchange and intertwine with each other and among several dimensions in a dance of experiential existence. And through our experiences we garner the wisdom to push through our illusions, thus reducing suffering and hardship in our lives.
Your metaphysical nature is set, to a certain degree, in each lifetime by specific parameters of karma, mission statement, skill sets, and chakra disposition. That is, most of us are governed by one or more chakras that influence the psychology of our being through their respective attributes. One’s life and challenges become a stage, where the predominant chakric disposition orchestrates the life’s lessons in a way that the participant must experience.
Knowing your disposition, chakric strength and weaknesses helps you to gain understanding of why you may tend to live your life the way you do, and why certain repetitive patterns occur. It is in the understanding of our metaphysical nature through our given disposition that allows true self-empowerment to take place.
As you grow in consciousness, you begin to understand how and why situations are created for your learning, and how best to optimize your life’s path. Your weakness becomes your strength, and your strength your weakness. And by remembering within you are all answers, you self-empower through that same chakra by making conscious decisions, aware of your orientation towards this life time.
With the evolution of consciousness in our world of today, there is a growing portion of the population of people who are experiencing not only their own growing pains, but the growth of others as well. In this instance, consider the person who has incarnated with a heart chakra disposition.
In my opinion, an individual must have had several lifetimes of right action and behavior, or dharma, before that person could qualify. It is through the accrual of merit, an individual accomplishment of character, that one carries with them from incarnation to incarnation. Thus the person who incarnates in their heart carries an inherent experiential goodness, different from an inherent spiritual goodness that we all have.
It also means that the individual comes through in this lifetime, through that goodness, as psychically sensitive, through that 95% of all communication that is not physical, to all others around them. So not only is the heart-chakra individual faced with the living of their own life, they are sensitive to the energies of others around them, to the extent they become living sponges, soaking up emotional energies of other individuals.
In my experience, one in fourteen people are empaths. This “taking on” can create a negative compressive emotional energy in the emotional energy field of the individual. This can often create a problem, because most empaths do not know that they are in fact empaths.
Most empaths, not knowing that they are taking on this energy in a non-physical way, are unaware of the origin of their suffering, and the negative compressive emotional energy can have deleterious effects on the individual, because that person also would not know how to clear the energy, or dispose of it.
Many heart-chakra beings suffer continually, taking on the negative energies of humanity, through having had many good past lives. They often do not see their own goodness, but rather may sometimes take on suffering as a validation of their lives. This is done through love, not as a purposeful self-destruction, but because of the intense self-realized goodness that the empath has lived in their past reincarnations.
Many physiological and psychological issues can develop from a heart-chakra disposition, and with the heart chakra, issues can become systemic to the body, mind and emotions. Physical issues include problems with the heart itself, respiration, ribs, thymus, skin, joints, fibromyalgea, blood flow and blood quality, weight retention, and other issues systemic to the body.
Psychological issues include a loss of personal identity, depression, loss of the ability to think clearly, personal sabotage, and constant struggle to stay emotionally stable. Imagine your emotional energy field as a cup that holds water. If the cup is full, then any water (emotion) added to the cup causes it to overflow. This is the energetic equivalent of what happens to a heart chakra individual, who has taken on so much energy from the people around them that any added emotion is always too much, and causes suffering in some way.
Here are some exercises that the empath can do to help relieve the emotional body of negativity.
Exercise #1.
Whether you shower or bathe, imagine the water as magnetic. Knowing what a magnet does, imagine the magnetized water pulling out of you, as appropriate, any negative emotion, thought or feeling. You don’t even have to know what the negativity is, just think “Release, release, release,” to yourself as the negativity goes out into the water, the water goes down the drain, and you are clear.
The Earth transmutes the negative energy into neutral energy. If you cannot get to a shower or bath, hold your hands under running water and think “Release, release, release.” If you cannot get to water at all, just imagine it running over the back of your hand. The power of your will helps to clear you. You can do this exercise as often as you want every day. It will help to keep your emotional energy field clear. Water is a great conductor of emotional energy, and most empaths always live near water or love being in water.
Exercise #2.
“No-Stick Teflon” When in a situation as a party or gathering of people, an empath can often feel claustrophobic, as the press of many emotional energies can be very chaotic in mixed gatherings. Knowing what Teflon does for cookware, imagine “No-Stick Teflon” in your energy field.
Your field will not filter any goodness that comes through, but will tend to fend off any negative emotional energies, hooks or tubes from others. You may still take on certain things, as you must, if it is within your path’s learning. Remember, people will come into relationship with an empath to work out mutual life’s goals; the energies already being set up across space and time through that 95% that is not physical.
Most empaths find their lives as a hub of a many-spoked wheel. They usually will find themselves in the center of a soul-group to help anchor the groups karma and emotional workings. Therefore, it is imperative that they keep their fields clear with regular exercise, meditation, and with a sincere recognition of their inherent goodness for having incarnated in their heart.
Through the empath’s mere existence, the 95% of communication that is non-verbal will energetically cause others to tend to aspire to their own greatness, because of what the empath represents as a soul that has made diligent progress in past lives.
