On the 12th and 13th of April, 2010 we went through a significant transition in America through the I Ching Energy of Hexagram #2 NATURAL RESPONSE.

Since the 13th, we have gone through multiple Hexagrams, which is very unusual. We have just moved out of Hexagram #26 Potential Energy and are now in #9 RESTRAINED. What does that mean?

Kuan Yin has compared this period of time to a white water rafting trip and at this particular stage it feels as if some things that were moving quickly with a lot of potential energy have suddenly slowed way down.  The ancient Chinese described the Hexagram of RESTRAINED as “Dense clouds, no rain.”

I have promised to keep you informed as much as possible and Kuan Yin has some more advice to help us make the adjustments that are required to effectively handle this kind of change in momentum…

Feng Shui To Raise the Vibration

Here is a feng shui remedy that Kuan Yin shared with me to help raise the vibration in my home as these unpredictable energy shifts continue into May.

In times where there is a lot of instability in the general energy level, it’s good to apply remedies that will help to balance things out. I was guided to plant some yarrow in the front yard, which will bring increased emotional balance and to place a piece of selenium nearby which has the ability to repel negative energies.

As soon as I set them out properly, I felt a huge sigh of relief go through me and the vibration in my home returned to its normal level. If you are an emotional type, I highly recommend this remedy.

Kuan Yin’s I Ching Reading – Heading Into May

We are receiving help from Kuan Yin, the Goddess of Compassion, who is guiding us through the I Ching, an ancient Chinese text that follows and predicts movements and energy flow in the cosmos. Her advice as always, is direct and to the point.

“The text for the I Ching energy of Hexagram #9 RESTRAINED states:

“Nothing can be done externally…work on the Self. Refine your impulses and desires.”

~ The I Ching Workbook by R. L. Wing (Doubleday)

This is the unchanging line, so that means that there is an external blockage that will eventually move on it’s own accord. However, nothing that one might try to move it forcefully will work.

The Importance of Working with the Flow

Remember, there are certain activities that do better when the energy of the Cosmos is flowing in certain ways. In periods when the I Ching energy is RESTRAINED, grand schemes are out of the question. It is a good time to look very closely at any opinions of beliefs that you hold that might be causing trouble from behind the scenes. Look especially closely at conflicts that may surface during this time.

In general, it is to your best advantage to wait out what may seem like a very unfulfilling situation by going within and looking closely at your current projects and activities to review them and make adjustments if necessary.

How will you know if something needs to be adjusted? Here is one suggestion:

Make a list of important activities that you plan to achieve over the next week or so. Go through them one at a time while you check in with your Highest Guidance through the Circle below.

Ask these three simple questions about the activity and you will know if an adjustment is needed.

Question #1 ~
“What am I doing?”

Question #2 ~
“How will it help?”

Question #3 ~
“Am I pushing?”

If you are unclear or get an unfavorable answer, it is for either one of these two reasons:

1) This particular activity is being blocked externally and you would do better to wait for a more auspicious time.  To find out ask, “Is the problem the timing?” If the answer is ‘yes’, pull back. If you can RESTRAIN yourself from pushing forward, especially when the time isn’t right, you can avoid costly mistakes. Allow the Universe to work for you.

The other possibility is:

2) The activity needs an adjustment from within.
Ask,  ‘Is an adjustment needed from within?”

If that is the case, it would be wise to closely examine your opinions and beliefs with the help of your Inner Wisdom.”

On the 12th and 13th of this week we went through a significant transition in America  through the I Ching Energy of Hexagram #2 NATURAL RESPONSE.

Since Tuesday evening alone, we have already gone through two other hexagrams (#49 CHANGING and #18 REPAIR) and are briefly under the influence of Hexagram #42 BENEFIT. Kuan Yin likens this period to white water rafting and warns that there will continue to be frequent and unexpected shifts of energy. The shifts are furious and it’s a good thing she recommended that we remain calm and centered.

Here is another short message that she would like me to share…

How to Benefit from Mass Changes

We are receiving help from Kuan Yin, the Goddess of Compassion, who is guiding us through the I Ching, an ancient Chinese text that follows and predicts movements and energy flow in the cosmos. Her advice as always, is direct and to the point.

The text for the I Ching energy of Hexagram #42 BENEFIT states:

“Exceptional energy is being directed into the current situation. Many things will become possible, even very difficult undertakings. It is important to make the best use of your time now, as conditions will change… Because of the benevolent forces surrounding you, you are presented with an excellent opportunity for self-improvement.

The changing line states that:

“Success is yours if your goal is worthwhile and can BENEFIT others.”

If you can utilize this Hexagram properly, the flow of energy will move into Hexagram #20 CONTEMPLATING and this will be the energy available to be used for your highest BENEFIT:

“By CONTEMPLATING the cosmic laws and their effects on both your life and the lives of others, you can gain an insight into the unfolding pattern of events. This perspective is extremely powerful, and the gifted individual can use it to master him (her) self and his environment.”

~ The I Ching Workbook by R. L. Wing (Doubleday)

The Importance of Working Together With the Flow

Why is it important to be aware of the I Ching flow?

Because there are certain activities that do better when the energy of the Cosmos is flowing in certain ways.

For example, if the flow of the cosmos is in the Hexagram of RETREAT as it was two weeks ago, it would be a poor time to start a business, launch a campaign or announce an important event. A better choice of activity in that case would be cleaning out the garage or reviewing business plans to weed out ineffective activities.

In the current Hexagram BENEFIT, the energy supports activities that create positive seeds for the future. If after that, you have the advantage of Hexagram CONTEMPLATING, you will have an opportunity to CONTEMPLATE how you can best nourish those seeds and put them into action.

Use this Circle to BENEFIT You

So, in the spirit of working together to move effectively through this time, take just a few minutes to ask yourself:

‘What are some things I could plant the seeds for or send energy to that would really help me or others in the future?

Your answer(s) to that question cold mark the beginning of a progressive new era. Whether you decide to follow through, of course, is another question.
However, whatever you consciously create or nourish at this time will receive the extra boost of positive energy that comes from BENEFIT.”

Last week we dealt with many of the chaotic energies having to do with family, partnerships and other close relationships. We came to the conclusion that RETREATING by going within and accessing freedom was the best way to respond to some very difficult news and events.

On Monday, April 12th, the I Ching Energy moves into Hexagram #2 NATURAL RESPONSE for just two days. Kuan Yin will give us a short I Ching Reading for this energy and shares an healing meditation to help us to lovingly hand over the anxiety, grief and feelings of resentment that we may be feeling at this transitive time.

If you want to sign up for the Abundant Living newsletter, you can do it here!

We are receiving help from Kuan Yin, the Goddess of Compassion, who is guiding us through the I Ching, an ancient Chinese text that follows and predicts movements and energy flow in the cosmos. Her advice as always, is direct and to the point.

The I Ching energy for the United States through April 13th is Hexagram #2 NATURAL RESPONSE. The actual text states:

“The yielding and responsive quality of nature is the focus of this time. Nature follows with sensitivity the demands of the seasons, It reproduces, adapts, and evolves itself appropriately; it heals itself when injured and deftly maintains a balanced economy. Nature is the responsive, yielding background for all events on earth. The power of this time lies in reacting with a NATURAL RESPONSE to the myriad things around you, a response in keeping with the laws of nature.

At this time you are dealing with realities rather than potentials. You can know only the situation around you but not the forces behind it. Therefore you should not act independently or try to lead others. If you do, you will lose the way and become confused…you need friends and helpers to accomplish your aims. If you can accept this you will find guidance. Once you respond naturally and allow yourself to be led, even the greatest goals can be attained.”

~ The I Ching Workbook by R. L. Wing (Doubleday)

Kuan Yin’s Comments and a Healing Exercise

“There are times when the I Ching flow requires for humans to be as calm and still as possible. The NATURAL RESPONSE to this short influx of powerful energy is to remain centered within yourself and to refrain from taking aggressive action or pushing your own agenda.

The ideal of feminine receptivity is a good model to follow. There is much going on and it’s better to lay low. A time for renewed activity and advancement is coming soon, however, for now go within, meditate and pray for the end of fear.

To help you release the dominant pattern of fear that is still left over from the Old Paradigm, go through this short healing process.”

Pray for the End of Fear

Have you ever had an fight where you completely forgot what the argument was about?

The energy the first part of this month is very much like that – emotions are running high, but they don’t seem to have any substantial content. Some clients have described it as if they are feeling totally ungrounded and that everything is scattered and going every which way.

Not only that, but there are several short shifts in the I Ching flow this month and we will be doing our best to help keep you informed and going with the flow through Kuan Yin’s I Ching Readings and some important exercises that should help you get your bearings again.

The main areas that seem to be most affected right now are family, partnerships and other close relationships. As we move forward into the New Paradigm, it is very important that we regain control of how we are using our energy.

Feng Shui and Conflict

In this picture of windswept twigs and broken branches, we can see how sharp points and chaos create nothing but confusion. I learned a long time ago to beware of allowing debris like this to build up in my yard and this Spring is no exception. If you have this kind of buildup in your yard, especially in the front, you would be wise to clear it away.

Feng shui refers to sharp, pointy edges as “sha” or killing energy and a bunch of it all together like this indicates an abundance of indescriminant, negative energy. These days, a lot of people are having trouble because the feng shui in their homes or offices are not properly protecting them from these energies.

Find out how you can use feng shui to help you deflect conflict and disharmony…

Of course there is also such a thing as mental sha energy which takes the form of irrational and pointless arguing, abusive behaviors and confusion. This lack of clarity perfectly describes the collective energy of America at this time.

Access Peace From Within

The I Ching energy for the United States through April 11th is Hexagram #33 RETREAT. It seems that retreating from meaningless conflict is called for especially now. That means retreating from the conflict and coming back into your heart. The actual text states…

“It is of great importance that you do not confront or struggle with opposing forces and thereby become emotionally involved with what is, actually, a futile situation. Vengeance and hatred will cloud your judgment and prevent the necessary RETREAT…

Difficulties and hostilities are on the rise in matters of business or politics. Do not attempt to compete with these forces…The overall situation is inflexible at this time…withdraw intellectually and emotionally.”
~ The I Ching Workbook by R. L. Wing (Doubleday)

Let’s see what Kuan Yin has to add…

Kuan Yin’s I Ching Reading for April – Part 1

We are receiving help from Kuan Yin, the Goddess of Compassion, who is guiding us through the I Ching, an ancient Chinese text that follows and predicts movements and energy flow in the cosmos. Her advice as always, is direct and to the point.

“Most people in the United States are involved in multiple situations that are causing problems and preventing them from remaining focused on the most positive use of their energy.

Relationships, in particular, are the cause of a great deal of confusion, doubt and fear. This is due in part to past karmic entanglements and emotional reactions to conflict. It is futile to persist in these conflicts, yet, so many are having difficulty in letting go.

Success at this time requires courage and resolve to leave the collective cycle of abuse. If you are holding onto victimhood, it is time to RETREAT.

This is a dangerous time to be enmeshed in conflicts because they will cloud your judgment and draw you into painful cycles of abuse that have long been part of the Old Paradigm.

Play this game to peacefully RETREAT from any negative karmic ties that threaten to cause you harm.

Once you have effectively RETREATED from these negative situations, you will feel less guilt and doubt about moving forward.”

Cutting Negative Karmic Ties

The Role of Confusion

“Many of you are still caught up in a relationship or situation that is abusive and you aren’t clear about how it is affecting you because you are confused. If you could RETREAT from your confusion, you would know what to do. This situation is exacerbated because the confusion is being held on the collective level. The following short meditation is provided to assist you in RETREATING from a dynamic that you have no power to change.

Use this symbol to help you identify a situation that you need to RETREAT from.

Now go to this healing exercise to access peace again.”

The Energy Will Change Dramatically on April 12th

And it will be affecting America for only two days. Because the transition is so significant, we will be posting Part Two and a very special exercise this next Monday to help you make the most of it.

Also, if you are willing to share this information, please feel free.

is helping us through these difficult times with advice and energy readings based on the I Ching, an ancient Chinese text that follows and predicts movements and energy flow in the cosmos.

The I Ching energy for the United States through March 20th is Hexagram #27 NOURISHING. However, the advice that is given can be useful at any time, for anyone seeking to make positive improvements in their lives:
“Exercise unrelenting discipline over your thought patterns. Cultivate only productive productive opinions and attitudes in order to properly nourish your character. If you are engaged in activity at this time, keep your mind as calm and relaxed as possible.” ~ The I Ching Workbook by R. L. Wing (Doubleday)

Nourishing Your Journey Into the New Paradigm

“Unfortunately, it can be difficult to keep a calm and relaxed mind when ingrained behavior patterns from the past are still being held in the collective mindset of your culture. Most people will say that they want to move forward towards peaceful prosperity, yet there are so few models in your media and social systems, everyone wonders, “how is that going to happen”?

It was only a little over a year ago when the U.S. was unified by the desire for change. Now many are frustrated and disappointed. Others are turning back in droves, looking for the false security that was fostered by the Old Paradigm. This split is being NOURISHED by the status quo with a negative tendency that still pulls at you – impatience.

As consummate consumers, America has been taught to jump from one method to another. If results are not immediate, it’s time to drop it and go out shopping for another method. They are looking for a easy and fast fix for some very old problems and they want it now.

Let us help you clarify what is required to pull you out of the quagmire and get you back on the road to living in the New Paradigm.

Making Choices that Support Happiness

Choice # One: Be Willing to be Open to New Methods and Ways of Operating

This is the first step and an important one. What ever you are willing to NOURISH within yourself is going to determine where you are heading at this time. If you are searching for and finding new methods to develop your own good qualities and are sharing them with others, you are feeding a willingness to align with the New Paradigm. What you must remember about this is that it is far better to make small steps in the right direction than it is to make dramatic, ego gratifying steps in the wrong direction.

Use this symbol for integrating positive, healthy energy to help you determine where you are in regards to WILLINGNESS.

Ask yourself these questions while looking at the symbol:

“Am I willing to try something new in order to live a happier life? If not, why not?”

“Do I still believe that fighting and struggle is the only way to create what I want?”

“If so, am I WILLING to change my mind?”

Choice #2: Have the Courage to Stick with the New Methods You Choose Long Enough To See if They Are Working for You

Results don’t happen overnight and if you are constantly changing course – going from one method to the next – you are actually hampering your own progress.

Many people think that impatience is a good way to get things accomplished and unfortunately for them, the exact opposite is true. Patience is a great virtue to NOURISH in yourself. A change of this magnitude (our Paradigm Shift) has to be taken step by step to effectively monitor how things are coming together. Courage is the motivator for the greatest changes in your history, and now is no different.

Use this symbol for COURAGE to see what kind of energy you are using to motivate you.

“Am I utilizing courage or fear when I face my daily challenges?”

“Am I being patient or impatient?”

“Am I willing to NOURISH patience and courage?”

If you are utilizing fear and impatience, realize that you will most likely give up on the possibilities for the future and turn back to the past looking for a safe and seemingly easier way to cope. This is an illusion. You can use this affirmation to help you:

“I release my dependence on fear and recommit to following the guidance of my spirit.”

Imagine that your fear is like a heavy old piece of luggage that you are still carrying around. See yourself dropping it and let it dissolve into nothingness.

Choice #3: Keep Choosing the Light, Rather Than the Dark.

The New Paradigm is based on the pure light of love and connectedness. If you are NOURISHING feelings of isolation or thinking only about yourself, gently redirect your attention towards people, attitudes and behaviors that support your better qualities.

How can you do that?

Use this symbol to fill yourself with light. Imagine that with every breath you are filling up your body with pure, white light. Doing this exercise will do more than most anything to help you get back on track. Remember, like attracts like, so if you are being the light, you will attract more of it.

“I am filled with the pure light of creation.”

“I release and dissolve the karmic pattern of using anger to get what I want.”

“I release karmic patterns from my mental continuum that would create terror in my mind or in the mind of anyone else.”

“I recommit to nourishing compassion and kindness for all beings, including myself.”

If you like, you can contemplate more specific behavior patterns that are causing you problems and dissolve them from your mental continuum now.

Even though you may not consciously be aware of what karmic pattern you are operating out of, this process will help you to release its grip on how you are responding to things in your life.

The current energy is that of #10 CONDUCT, which to me has meant that how I conduct myself is especially important. There are time when taking chances or risks with your health and resources is okay. The time of CONDUCT, which should continue through 11/11/09 is not such a forgiving time. For example, if you are speeding while driving, you are much more likely to get pulled over and receive a ticket. If you feel inclined to buck the system, you will probably get bucked back pretty severely. Adhering to established customs and modes of behavior will bring the best results during this time.

Here is what Kuan Yin has to say about CONDUCT. Her advice, as always, is direct and to the point…

“There is too much time being spent on issues that have no bearing on your future prosperity. A misunderstanding regarding your purpose may be the culprit. Many people in American Society have the thought that one’s “purpose” has to do with achievements in the material world. They seek satisfaction in having things and achieving recognition. External manifestations of this kind have long been a source of confusion.

If you want to know your purpose, you must look beyond the promotion or the expectations of your family.

How you CONDUCT yourself between now and November 11th will have a profound effect on your health and well being for the next several years.

If you have been abusing your body or overextending your mind, the energy of CONDUCT will assist you in making new choices that support love and happiness.

Take the time now to weed out behaviors that are causing you harm and eliminate them. If you feel you have no willpower, now is the time to reclaim it. The next three years will be a time when “enlightenment” is within reach for many, yet how you CONDUCT yourself now will bring either blessings or misfortune, depending on the choices made during this foundational time.”

So the question becomes – “What Are You Choosing and will it hurt or hinder?

You can evaluate the choices you’ve been making during the I Ching energy of CONDUCT using this Intuitive Learning Meditation.

Virtuous Conduct Strengthens Your Character and Helps You to Transcend Dangerous Situations

Align yourself with people who conduct themselves with honesty and concern for the well being of others. If you feel that you don’t know people who conduct themselves in this way, the times call for you to be more discerning about the company you keep.

When you find yourself in the position of having to make a choice, let the Inner Guidance of your heart and spirit lead you into gentler circles.

If you would like to strengthen the connection you have with people who will help you through these difficult times, you can play Re-alignment for the New Paradigm.”

We are receiving help from Kuan Yin, the Goddess of Compassion, who is guiding us through the I Ching, an ancient Chinese text that follows and predicts movements and energy flow in the cosmos. Her advice as always, is direct and to the point.

Her I Ching Reading comes from the Fifth Line from HEXAGRAM 23 – DETERIORATION (Splitting Apart):

“An inferior situation is beginning to change for the better. Through co-operation, opposing forces can come together for mutual benefit. There is now a possibility for success in your endeavors.” ~ THE I CHING WORKBOOK by R. L. Wing

“A new energy of cooperation must be fostered in order for this change to come about. Look into your heart and see if you are willing to re-arrange your thinking a bit. The Old Paradigm was built on devision and separation. What is called for now is a WILLINGNESS to re-evaluate priorities and be open to new ideas. This is a gradual process – one that is considerate of others while remaining pragmatic and down to earth.

You are each contributing to the creation of a whole New Paradigm and what you do or don’t do has a significant impact on what is created next. Remember that the energy of SHOCKING is in effect for several more weeks.

Think of the time as if you were in a thunder storm, filled with lightening and great torrents of rain. If you are standing out in the middle of it, you must keep your wits about you in order to respond appropriately. If you shut down, you are in danger. If you panic, your decisions may lead you into even greater troubles. Many people are not used to listening to their hearts in situations like these. And yet, this is the best avenue you can take when dealing with SHOCKING times.

Use the Re-Alignment for the New Paradigm intuition exercise and this symbol to help you. Look at the Circle to below and think of a situation where you are struggling to find an appropriate response. You may feel stuck or shut down, or you may be emotionally driven to repeat an old behavior that you know from experience has not worked well.

Once you have the situation, go through the “Re-Alignment for the New Paradigm” exercise with the objective:

“I am open to new solutions when it comes to  ______________.” (fill in the blank with your situation)

The answers may not come to you immediately, yet if you stay centered, they will come.”

We are receiving help from Kuan Yin, the Goddess of Compassion, who is guiding us through the I Ching, an ancient Chinese text that follows and predicts movements and energy flow in the cosmos. Her advice as always, is direct and to the point.

Currently we are moving through Hexagram #51 SHOCKING.  This is what she recommends…

“It is important that you accept the changing times and change with them. This means that certain habits and negative behaviors are bound to come to the surface over the next month and if you choose to put your head in the sand, you will miss one of the largest opportunities to heal your heart in this time of SHOCKING change.

Now is an opportune time to clear out confusing ideas and societal prejudices by going within and examining what is most important to you and make a firm determination to stay centered, even as chaotic forces are at their strongest.

Know that those who choose to use force or aggression to further their agendas will experience serious backlashes and setbacks during SHOCKING times. This is not the time to push ahead rashly, rather it is a time to step back and clarify your principles. Be certain that you are coming from a place of love and that you are clear about where your actions will lead you.

Preparing For A New Way of Manifesting

The Heavens have created an awesome moment to facilitate transformation and if you are wise, you will utilize it to it’s fullest. Rarely has there been the opportunity to shift your perception so easily as in this time. Take stock of the persons, places and things that bring you joy and consciously connect them like a diligent spider weaving a web of love. This will assist you in staying centered in the storm.

If you willingly follow and adapt your life according to those things that are naturally good, you will find that you can rid yourself of ancient abuses that have long sucked the spirit of humanity dry. In the wake of SHOCKING times, there is much progress that can be made.”

Kuan Yin’s “Realignment for a New Paradigm” is this month’s  special meditation.

“I have a blackberry and am having a problem. You are interested in many things I need. I’m in co spgs, co how can I work with you? One question a sick friend has placed dream catchers many of them in her bathroom I had a weird feeling about that like somehow not contributing to her wellness
Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T”

Dear Paula,

I take it from what you’ve said that your blackberry limits what you can see on our website newsletters and the ebooks, etc. Is that correct?

If so, here is what comes to mind immediately. Can you download the pdf’s and take them (or email them) to a Staples or other printer/copy center and have them print them out for you? As a subscriber, I give permission for you to do that with our free downloads (Taming the Bear, 5 Lectures on Reincarnation and the Spiritual Attachment Assessment) if they have any copyright issues. One copy per subscriber, please.

Another option is to get an internet account through your local library. That should work well for the newsletters and Games for Change if you have signed up for them.

Another option is for you to tell me what you want and have me print them up and send them to you. We can do that for a small fee that covers the cost of printing and postage. For example, we have the “Creating a Tipping Point for Economic Prosperity” complied in ebook form and can send that to you.

If you want to purchase a Book or Game, I can print and mail them as well for the price listed, plus postage.

For personal work (energy work and feng shui)  – A lot of folks purchase the Soul Prayer Charts and Gifts from the Rainforest and then I work with them over the phone. The Intuitive Learning Circles transmit beautifully for long distance work.

The best way to proceed is for you to tell me what you’re interested in and then I can make more specific suggestions based on that.

*    *    *    *

As far as your friend goes, here is what I suggest: See if she’s willing to trade out her dream catchers in the bathroom for a hanging feng shui glass ball (you know the multi-faceted ones that look like they might be part of a chandelier) for a couple of weeks. See if she feels better and her energy improves. You can tell her that the glass ball sends away negative energy and brings more positive energy and light into her house.

Since there are so many factors that need to be taken into consideration with feng shui, and I’m not there to see what’s going on, the best thing is to try things out and see what effect they have.

I hope this is helpful. Contact me at contact@intuitivelearningcircle.com  if you have any more questions.

Blessings,

Rheanni Lightwater
