Living In the Light with Fish Medicine

Self-care and Personal Growth through Gifts from the Rainforest:

Fish Medicine from Gifts from the Rainforest

30. Fish Medicine – Fish embodies compassion and forgiveness. By living in the Light and letting others see our light, the world becomes a better place.

Are you hiding your light?

Is it being interfered with? 

Are you out of your depth?

If so, what would help?


Healing Action: Travel with others who have similar values. Radiate the best of who you are to attract them. Use your gifts to follow the Light. Let your Inner Light shine.


Fish School

Tropical fish bring light and color
into the depths of darkness.
Innocent and vulnerable,
they make their way through the water in groups.
The ego defines these qualities as weak and submissive
and so it seeks to hide our light.
But fish does not see it that way.
He knows that all things have their purpose, including him.
It is his purpose to defy danger by dazzling it with his beauty.
Learn from fish by filling your heart
with compassion and forgiveness.
Boldly shine your light and
display your gifts for all to see.
Delight in the abundance and beauty of fish medicine.

You’ve been wishing things were different, but the difficulty has more to do with the company you’ve been keeping. It’s time to ask for help in finding others who share your values and goals. This is how you will find the appropriate answers and encouragement. When you move in circles of like-minded people, the light of each individual is magnified and becomes a part of an enormous collective energy.

If you’re feeling alone and unsafe, it’s very possible that you haven’t chosen the best circles to travel in. Learn to choose friends and companions that know how to nourish themselves appropriately. That way, you’ll be able to give freely and be given to in return.

Be cautioned though, sometimes a group can get caught up in retrograde movements, pulling them downward into a spiraling cascade of illness and bad luck. The ocean depths are filled with predators who dangle bright lights and shiny objects to capture their dinner. Know when an innocent adventure has turned dangerous.

The natural environment for tropical fish is one of light, color and abundant life. Gaze softly at the Circle and ask your Soul, “Am I traveling out of my depth?” If the answer you get is “yes,”  it’s time to gather yourself up with all your natural gifts, talents and skills. Then, allow your Soul to lead you towards your natural and intended environment.

It may be that you’ve been expecting the worst in life and getting it. You could be participating in malicious gossip or allowing yourself to be bothered by the gossip of others. If so, you’re blocking the flow of prosperity and giving yourself an abundance of bad luck instead. The proper remedy is to compassionately forgive yourself and move into gentler waters.

If you have already thought any of the above or heard it from others whom you trust, it’s time to really stop and pay attention. You are doing yourself harm. Still the mind and listen to your heart.

Second Chakra Balancing in the New Paradigm

Improve Your Emotional and Immune Health with Second Chakra Balancing ~

This mind exercise has been developed to help us adapt to the change in environmental energies through Second Chakra balancing.

The second energy center is deeply connected to our emotions, digestion and immunity. Its color is orange and it’s located approximately 2 – 3 inches down from your navel. Free flowing energy in the 2nd Chakra is essential to physical and emotional health.

Second Chakra BalancingGaze softly at the Second Chakra Key, then ask yourself:

“Am I experiencing emotional turmoil? Is it my turmoil or does it come from somewhere else?” Can you identify where?

“Am I particularly susceptible to communicable illnesses, such as viruses, flus and colds?”

“Are blocked emotions or built up toxins exacerbating any chronic physical or emotional health conditions?”

It’s quite easy for toxic emotions and entanglements to build up and poison your entire system. Do you feel that you’re entangled with others? 

Does it feel like you’re out of balance because of changes in your environment? Or, are you being affected by negative energies? If so, you can go through this exercise for some re-organization and relief.


This Reiki Chakra Key can help you be more clear about what you would like to change so you can reduce confusion. Relax with it and start with how you’re seeing yourself in your current situation. Is there something about what you see that you’d like to change?

“When it comes to this particular situation, how am I seeing myself?”

“Can I tell how I might like to see myself differently?”

Note: The most effective self-healing will include a sense of empowerment and self-mastery.

 

Release Agreements That Compromise Your Immunity and  Emotional Health

Take a look at contracts or agreements that affect your emotional and immune system health. Consider the people, the places and organizations that could be affecting you in a negative way. Those relationships may not be over, but surely they are going to change! Free up your energy with this Circle by letting go of those agreements.

“I let go of all Soul Agreements that are complete – over and done with.
I establish a new agreement to be present and to create physical and emotional health  – regardless of what I’m doing.
I allow the necessary changes to take place.”

Release sub-conscious agreements to hold up emotional drama or chaotic frequencies. See completed debts, vows and resentments burn up like old contracts in a beautiful, violet flame.

You may want to surrender your involvement with a  project, a person, a social circle or organization or even a specific place that no longer serves your needs. Surrender it by releasing that Soul contract into the fire.

“I have completed my experience with you. It was an important experience and it’s time now to be done with it.”

 

Adapt to the Generative Life Energies Available in the New Paradigm

It helps to know that you can close down many harmful energies left over from those old experiences and relationships that may be running rampant through your body, mind and space.

“I have protection.”
“I close down all harmful energy channels.”

Once they’re closed, you’ll find that you’re much more receptive to the new generative life force (chi) that’s available in the New Paradigm. Use this symbol to help you “install” an adaptive filter for the lighter, quicker energy of Air in your chakras and throughout your system.

“My mind and body are clear to receive generative life force.”
“I can now connect with new channels of effective communication that support my wellbeing.” 

Release Attachments

Because of the sheer amount of tragic and heart breaking events we’re encountering everyday, we need to address the possibility that various chakras may be damaged or struggling with attachments.

Use this Soul Star Detachment Key to relax and meditate on for as long as you like. Like a healing balm, imagine that a loving coat of peace and comfort is pouring down over you.

“My energy system can easily and effectively neutralize harmful energies and detach from them.”

 

Correct Reversals and Blockages

When you’re experiencing stress, it’s not uncommon for the chakras and/or meridians to start running in reverse or shut down entirely. Relax and let this symbol help you make corrections to problems including deformations, reversals and misdirections.

“I repair any glitches, holes or blockages in my energy system.”

Take all the time you need with this until your energy smooths out and you can begin to feel the energy of your Soul coming through.

Connect the Hara Lines

Whenever working with chakras, you may need to repair and/or strengthen hara lines for improved communication and healing.
The hara lines are like tiny webs of light that connect the chakras throughout your body. Sometimes they’re broken or damaged because of trauma, illness, toxicity or sudden changes in the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight).
This Circle gives extra energy to the hara lines that surround and connect with your Second Chakra.

“I repair and strengthen my hara lines.”
“My chakras are connected with my Soul properly
through a golden web of light.”

This Circle also helps us navigate where we are and to organize our consciousness around being present. “I am inside of my body. Everything that doesn’t belong, is outside of me.”

 

Release Any Destructive Energies to the Light

This balancing exercise may have brought up negativity and harmful energies that need to be safely expelled. This symbol will help you dissolve destructive blueprints and release them to the Light. These positive affirmations will help you:

“I surrender my connection with harmful energies and let them go to the Light.”

I send the poisons of poor health and emotional stress to the Light to be transformed.”

Take your time and visualize them disappearing like dark clouds into the pure light of the Sun.

Please note: Never send destructive energies into the Earth, she already has too much to handle now. Use the Earth for planting seeds of happiness and life – not death!

 

Close the Doors to Suffering and Poor Health

It’s time to close the holes or pathways in your mind or energy field that lead back to suffering or harmful communications.
If those pathways remain open, all kinds of trouble (violent thought forms, karma, issues or emotions) can continue to pass back and forth through the opening without your awareness. This can manifest in sudden and mysterious illnesses, mental confusion, issues with prosperity or chronic states of overwhelm.
Take all the time you need. There are probably a lot of them.

“All holes, doors or passageways are sealed and healed.”
“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection and intended path.”


Close the doors both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body.

 

Check Back Into Your Self-perception Again ~

Relax first for a few minutes while your chakras unwind from personality traits that have been harming you.
Relax with this Key and allow the changes to take place. Wait until your energy calms down and stabilizes. It may take some time.

Personality Chakra Key

How are you seeing yourself now?
Is there anything you would change to improve it?
If so, make a note of it for future reference.

 

Empower Your Ability to Make the Necessary Changes Through Your Divine Connection to Your Soul.

 

Congratulations!

You are learning to manage your energy in a conscious, balanced and nourishing way!

Now would be an excellent time to go to make sure you’re grounded. Go out for a walk out in Nature or exercise.

Be sure to breathe deeply!

Armadillo Medicine

Darkness and confusion are lingering in the present situation. These energies take the form of hidden agendas, procrastination, fears of the future, distractions, hesitation in moving forward and unreasonable pressures that you put on yourself or others.

Examine your life, it may be that things are out of their proper order. You may be doing things only for others and not for yourself. Remove internal fears. Establish new boundaries and pull yourself back from harmful and co-dependent relationships.
Or
It’s possible that you may be suffering from nightmares, feelings of distrust, panic, impending doom or other symptoms associated with PTSD. It’s important to know that recovery is possible. Pull yourself out of the darkness by detaching from your attraction to it.

Perhaps you are feeling disconnected and alone. It’s time to reconnect with the light and strength of who you really are.

Clear the Throat Chakra

Improve Self-Perception by Having a Clear Throat Chakra ~

Clear Throat ChakraMany people don’t realize how important and inter-related the chakras are to our physical, mental and emotional health. Take, for example, having a clear Throat Chakra.

This energy center is about communication and is important to the function of our thyroid / parathyroid glands. Plus, it affects the respiratory system. It also influences our abilities of expression and creativity. The color vibration of a balanced and healthy throat chakra is blue – as in “true blue.”

If you’d like to experience greater confidence about how you’re communicating, this short Mind Exercise could help.


Let’s start out by using the Reiki Chakra Key to relax and tune into the fifth primary chakra found at the throat.

Ask yourself if there’s anything that you’re afraid to say or talk about. Are you having any communication issues?

 

The Challenge Chakra Key is located nearby just under the chin on the soft, fleshy part of your throat. It helps you to access your Free Will to choose and accept the challenges of life. Gaze softly at the Key using these affirmations:

 “My free will is intact. I am a priority. I invest in myself.
My highest good is a priority.”

Release agreements to keep holding onto grudges, energy drains and injustices. Then gaze at the Key and affirm:

“I have the Will to communicate clearly and _______.
I am free to choose ____________.”

Remember that the Key will may move, vibrate or change colors – that just means that the correction or clearing is happening. This may take some time because the Keys affect other subtle energy systems as well, like the meridians.

Once the Key calms down, continue with the next Key.

 

The Expression Chakra Key below can help you understand how this lack of clear expression or Free Will is affecting you. It can also help you identify what you would like to change so you can improve self confidence and be the person you want to be.

Relax with it and gently tune into how you are moving through your world. Is there something you’d like to change about how you’re communicating in your current situation?

“How am I communicating when it comes to this situation?”
“Can I tell how I might like to communicate differently?”

Expression Chakras

Note: The most effective healing will include a sense of empowerment and self-mastery.

 

 

Having Clear Chakras Works with Your Agreements to Help You Create Your Physical, Mental and Emotional Health.

That includes the contracts or agreements you hold around your self-image. For example; there could be people, places or organizations that affect how you express yourself in a negative way. Those relationships may not be over, but it might be a good idea for them to change! Free up your energy with this Soul Contract Circle by letting go of those agreements.

“I let go of all Soul Agreements that are complete – over and done with.  I allow the necessary changes to take place.”

Release sub-conscious agreements to hold onto old behaviors and emotional drama.

“I release agreements to express _______, ______ or communicate in a _______ way.”

See completed debts, vows and expectations burn up like old contracts in a beautiful, violet flame.

“My new agreement is to have self-mastery over my communications.”

You may want to surrender your involvement with a project, a person, an organization or a special place that’s no longer serving your needs. Surrender it by releasing that Soul contract into the fire.

“I have completed my experience with you. It was an important experience and it’s time now to be done with it.”

 

Make a new agreement to connect through Joy and Gratitude, rather than Greed and Revenge.

When your chakras can source from a positive life force, Divine Connection is possible and preferable.

“I decide to source my communications through Joy, rather than fear, greed or hatred.” 

 

Continue the clearing by accessing your Heart or Fourth Chakra, located in the middle of your chest. 

“Our heart chakra is the bridge between our bodies and the spiritual world. It is where our thoughts and beliefs about love meet the physical expression of it.” ~ Reiki Chakra Keys, Rheanni Lightwater 

Spend a few minutes with this Reiki Chakra Key and allow your Heart Chakra to open, relax and expand:

“My Heart Chakra is connected, open and balanced.”

Intend that all fourteen of your meridians are correctly nourishing your Fourth Chakra.

 

Clear Epigenetic Tags That May Impair Your Communication ~

Epigenetic Healing - Divine Nature activatedThe next sequence of symbols are from Divine Nature Activated which will help you release negative conditioning and detach from that frequency on an epigenetic level. The key is to relax as much as possible while looking at each symbol. It can help to imagine that an old, broken DNA strand is falling apart while a vibrant and cohesive DNA strand is relaxing, healing and filling up with light.

When using these symbols, it’s important to relax and breathe as you use each affirmation:

“I ask for assistance from the Divine in cutting through the smokescreen.”

“I clear the Throat Chakra so I can communicate clearly.”

 

“I ask the Divine to help me to reconnect my consciousness with Hope.” 

“My Soul want’s me to realize that I am ________ and __________.”

 

“I ask for assistance from my Soul to let go of outdated and dysfunctional forms of communication and send them to the Light.”

“I communicate directly and honestly in accordance with my highest good.”

 

Release Attachments ~

Because of the sheer amount of distress and tragic events we are exposed to everyday, we need to address the possibility that various parts of your subtle energy system may be damaged or struggling to let go of attachments.

Use this Key to relax and meditate on for as long as you like. Like a healing balm, imagine that a loving coat of peace and comfort is pouring down over you.

“My energy system can easily and effectively neutralize interfering energies and detach from them.”

 

Correct Reversals and Blockages ~

When we’re under extreme stress, it’s not uncommon for the chakras and/or meridians to start running in reverse or shut down entirely. Relax and let this symbol help you make corrections to problems including deformations, reversals and misdirections.

“I repair any glitches, holes or blockages in my energy system.”

Take all the time you need with this.

Repair the Hara Lines ~

Whenever working with chakras, you may need to repair and/or strengthen hara lines for improved communication and healing.
The hara lines are like tiny webs of light that connect the chakras throughout your body. Sometimes they’re broken or damaged because of trauma, illness, toxicity or sudden changes in the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight).
This Circle gives extra energy to the hara lines that surround and connect with your Throat Chakra.

“I repair and strengthen my hara lines.”
“My chakras are connected properly with my Soul
through a beautiful web of light.”

This Circle also helps us navigate where we are and to organize our consciousness around being present. “I am inside of my body. Everything else is outside.”

“I improve my communications about __________.”

 

Adapt to the Generative Life Energies Available in the New Paradigm ~

It helps to know that you can close down many harmful energies from the past that could still be causing trouble with how you are processing energy.

“I am in charge of how I’m using my energy. I have protection.”
“I close down all harmful energy channels.”

Once they’re closed, you’ll find that your chakra centers are more open and receptive to the generative life force (chi) that is available in the New Paradigm. You can “install” this symbol like an adaptive filter for the lighter, quicker energy of Air.

“My communication is facilitated through this beneficial energy.”

 

Dissolve Destructive Blueprints That May Have Come Up ~

Take your time and visualize toxins and dysfunctional communication patterns dissolving like dark clouds into the pure, light of the Sun.

Please note: Never send destructive energies into the Earth, she already has too much to handle now. Use the Earth for planting seeds of happiness and life – not death!

 

Take a Moment to Clear Your Auric Blueprint ~

In today’s toxic world, it’s important to make sure you’re communicating through your True Self, rather than a false imprint.

“I strengthen and enliven all that is true within me and send falsehood to the Light.”

 

Refocus and Repair Your Aura ~

Finish your corrections by refocusing and strengthening your auras using this Circle. Your auras protect you and are an important part of your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health. Take all the time you need using these affirmations:

“I decide to take good care of myself and ___________.”

“My auras are completely repaired and refocused. I strengthen my mental capacity for heartfelt communication.”

 

Check Back Into How You’re Expressing Yourself ~

Relax with the Expression Chakras Key again for a minute or so.

Does it feel like you can communicate clearly what you want and be who you are? Is there anything you would change to improve that?

Congratulations!

You are learning to clear the throat chakra and manage your communications in a conscious, balanced and nourishing way!

Clear the Throat Chakra

Now would be an excellent time to go for a walk out in Nature or exercise.

Be sure to breathe deeply!

Hummingbird Medicine

A Gift of Joy from Hummingbird Medicine

Self-care and Personal Growth through Gifts from the Rainforest:

Hummingbird Medicine from Gifts from the Rainforest27. Hummingbird –Hummingbird Medicine brings the gift of living joyfully. Raising ourselves out of ignorance, heavy thoughts, feelings and beliefs allows us to experience love and beauty.

Are you experiencing joy?

What would help?

Further Exploration into Hummingbird Medicine:

Hummingbird Medicine

It’s time to examine the true nature of joy and how you’re using it. In this particular situation, Hummingbird appears out of nowhere to ask you two simple questions:
“What are you finding joy in? and Is it life-affirming?”

You can take joy in many different things – the soft touch of a baby’s skin or a rough roller coaster ride. One is not better than the other and enjoying one does not preclude enjoyment of the other. It’s a matter of choice.

Your heart could be asking you to let go of the need for “perfection,” or having there be “only one right way.” What if you could lighten up and instead go for joy and follow it to its heights? 

Hummingbird could also be calling your attention to how easily joy can become twisted. Reconsider what you find joy in. Some people create competitive situations in their lives because they enjoy improving their performance. Some enjoy being right, solving problems and appearing intelligent, yet in order to have these experiences, someone else has to be wrong, or the situation has to be filled with problems and ignorance. Notice how people who love to complain seek out things to complain about. Look deeply into Hummingbird’s Circle and ask, “How might I be creating unhappiness for myself? Is this what I really want? Am I willing to let it go?”

Some people actually enjoy having problems because they enjoy getting the attention. Could you be indulging in this inadvertently? If you are, it might be useful to notice how this temptation sucks the joy out of everything around you. You can choose to focus your joy differently.

Sometimes, we humans turn things that could be joyful into conflicts because we over-complicate them. Following a path of pure joy is also a path of simplicity. Hummingbird says, “Keep it simple.” Gaze at her Circle once more and ask your Soul: “Am I over complicating this?” If you are, how can you simplify and make it joyful again?

Difficult Beginnings

Difficult Beginnings arise where there are a profusion of elements struggling to take form…

Transitioning Out of the Piscean Age (Water) Into the Aquarian Age (Air).

Guidance from Kuan Yin and the I Ching

“You can sense the difficulties that lie ahead on your path. If you nevertheless plunge into the forest of obstacles without an experienced guide, you will surely lose your way.” ~ Hexagram #3 DIFFICULT BEGINNINGS, The I Ching Workbook by R.L. Wing

Kuan Yin's Transformation Games - Difficult BeginningsEver since 2009, Kuan Yin has offered her assistance through the I Ching and specially chosen Transformation Games, Mind Exercises and Self-care Formulas to help us navigate whatever changes were required. As a time-honored and respected guide in the Healing Arts, her aim has always been to help us stay calm and navigate the chaotic transition from the old paradigm into the New Paradigm with clear minds and hearts.

Now, Kuan Yin wants to help us adjust to the changes that have taken place by exploring what we need to be aware of about the reality of living and navigating in the New Paradigm where the Tao (or gate through which all things move) is likely to flow in varying difficult and chaotic patterns for some time.

Crossing the Bridge Over Difficult Beginnings.

Difficult BeginningsRadical energy shifts that began during the Solstice season of 2020 have escalated since December 21st, 2021. A change in the Cosmos has occurred and any remaining energy coming from the old paradigm, i.e. the Messianic or Piscean Age has shut down completely. That means that the prevailing Water style of manifesting that we knew and used in the old paradigm is no longer available to us. 

As Kuan Yin has been warning us would happen since 2009 – the old way of manifesting and working with energy is officially done. Of course, water is always an element that’s essential to life, it’s just no longer the prevailing Elemental style.

I have been turning to her and other angelic guides to help me understand and adjust to the series of radical energy shifts that began on the Solstice of 2021. Her advice, as always, is direct and to the point…

“The Tao is now moving in the style of the lighter, quicker element of Air.

Think about the difference between Air and Water. Water is an element that is flowing, yet dense, moving down in the path of least resistance. Water is the Archetypal Element that governs intuitive, emotional activity. When too much Water gathers in excess and doesn’t move, it stagnates. When it’s gotten out of balance, humans tend to internalize overwhelming emotions and experience dramatic upheavals.

In the old paradigm, emotions lead and thoughts followed.

Difficult Beginnings Under the Influence of Air.

Air also moves, but in a much lighter and quicker way. This element governs mental activity; thoughts – words – decisions and understanding. Air can change its velocity and direction in the flash of an instant, which explains the uptick in explosive weather patterns, wildfires, war activity, misinformation, lies and social volatility.
In general, that means everything is moving much faster, lighter, quicker and more direct than you are used to. Think about the difference between swimming and flying. You can still get from Point A to Point B, however, the effort it’s going to be a very different experience.

Communications Also Need to Adapt.

Likewise with communications. Think about the difference between how sound travels under water and how it travels through the air.

Release your agreements to hold onto STAGNANT ENERGIES

Underwater, sounds are slow moving and muffled. They’re far more easily misconstrued, diverted, ambiguous, distorted and wishy-washy. If the water is heavy, it gets STAGNANT, apathetic and toxic.

This “stuck” condition relates to current social tendencies such as apathy, resistance, self-pity and laziness. You would be wise to release your agreements to utilize this very stagnant energy flow.

Instead, make a conscious choice to activate a new relationship with the Element of Water – fresh and purified to offset the imbalances and SHOCKING effects of past indifference and abuse.

Consciously go beyond thoughts and prayers and make an actual adjustment in how you relate to and utilize this precious resource.

Learning to Manifest Effectively In the New Influence of Air.

In addition, Air governs the Central Meridian, which fuels the brain and the Soul. This enhances rational thought, putting concepts into words, discernment, understanding and decision-making.

In the New Paradigm, thoughts lead and emotions follow.

Examples of successful manifesting includes these components:

  • Clear messaging (communication).
  • Clear intention (single-minded, simple, straightforward).
  • Motivation to cooperate.

Ask yourself how well you are using the mental aspect of Air with these questions:
“Are my thoughts positive?”
“Is my intention clear?”
“Are my motivations life affirming?”

As you consider those questions, make a new agreement with yourself to REFORM how you are interacting with the Elements that have shifted in the flow of energy. Release how you interacted with the Water dominated energy of Pisces and make new agreements to mindfully generate life with the Air energy of Aquarius.

“I REFORM how I utilize the Elements of Water and Air to create life in the New Paradigm.”

“I slow down, simplify and use less force to accomplish my aims.”

The out-dated communication system of the Patriarchy is attempting to maintain the position that only certain people should have power, be heard and respected.

Release your agreements with that system so that you can assume a new position in the New Paradigm, built on a foundation of accessibility, equality, balanced prosperity and willingness to co-operate for the Common Good.

Another agreement to change would be to come from a place of gratitude and joy, rather than from a grumpy, greedy or vengeful place.

“I release agreements to source from greed, dissatisfaction or revenge.”

“I now Source from Gratitude and Joy.”

 

The adjustments you need to take won’t just happen on their own. In this new environment, having integrity in thought, word and deed is the best way to manifest genuine happiness. Be proactive and intentional with what you want to set up for yourselves.”

Meditate for a few minutes on the new flow of chi’ that’s available through the Element of Air.

Creating in the New Paradigm: A Shift in Elemental Influence.

Kuan Yin advises us to study the text for Hexagram #57 PENETRATING INFLUENCE (the Gentle) to learn more about how to navigate under these new conditions:

“Chinese art often depicts the effects of the invisible wind as it influences the landscape. Mountains are shown eroded and sculpted into fascinating forms, trees bend and twist into exotic shapes, clouds roll dramatically across the sky, bringing life-giving rain. In contemplating the wind, the…mind is inspired by the profound effect of a PENETRATING INFLUENCE and how this effect might manifest itself in human affairs.

You are faced with a situation that can be influenced only by gradual efforts in a consistent direction. Gentleness is the key here. Violence and radical movement would only alarm and repel. To influence effectively, you must maintain clearly defined goals over a long period of time. Your efforts should be as inconspicuous as possible. Try to imagine and emulate the gentle, unceasing wind… The time requires patience, a long-term commitment, and a vision of what you ultimately wish to accomplish…

This type of PENETRATING INFLUENCE is not rousing and takes much time, but it makes a lasting and profound impression.” ~ Hexagram #57, The I Ching Workbook by R. L. Wing

In this new energy, cultivate the power of observation to help you adjust quickly to sudden shifts of energy, missteps or over reaching. Forcing things and sudden moves can easily create chaotic energy flow and erratic imbalances, which should be avoided whenever possible.

Part of what that means is we need to:

  • Slow down and take things one at a time
  • Have clear, unified intentions
  • Examine intentions for hidden contradictions and harmful assumptions
  • Pay attention to the results we’re getting for our efforts
  • Be flexible in case what we’re doing isn’t working
  • Patiently and gently let go of resistance to what’s genuinely beneficial.

Emulate the gentle and patient Tree Sloth. Slow down and follow your Soul’s intention:

Tree Sloth - Difficult Beginnings

“It’s time to slow down and focus your energies on what you want to accomplish. Turn your attention 100% toward a clear intention. This is not the time for multi-tasking. If you have too many things going on, you won’t be able to keep track of what’s really important, and something really important is happening in this situation. Save yourself future regrets and resentments by paying attention now.” ~ #23 Tree Sloth from Gifts from the Rainforest

She also advises us to look at Hexagram #34 GREAT POWER:

“Keep in mind that power is a means and not an end in itself. In applying the available forces to the situation at hand, be certain that your timing is exact and that your actions are correct — that is, in the best interest of all concerned. The Chinese point out that actions that combine both correctness and GREAT POWER represent the true character and tendencies in heaven and on earth. The responsibility of correctness in times of GREAT POWER is unparalleled in importance, for actions that are inappropriate or incorrect will pull you and others into chaos.

Although blessed with GREAT POWER, you would be wise to pause and be certain that your proposed objectives are honorable… Unorthodox actions can lead to downfall during powerful times. Be patient, too, and wait for the opportune moment before executing your plan…”

Be instructed by the Praying Mantis. Still your mind and center yourself. Observe what’s really happening before taking action:

Good questions to ask are: What are you paying attention to? Is this a productive use of your time and attention? What would your spirit guide you to focus on instead?

There are unique challenges for those who identify as healers.

Realize that current underlying assumptions about healing and how it works are going through radical upheaval, whether we know it or not. The age of healing through sacrifice is over. Your special gifts and healing powers will need to make adjustments to work well with the new Air/Aquarian energy.

Know what you want, know what makes you feel good about your Self, know what brings you into harmony with others. These are your guidelines and principles. Other factors that assume control of your behavior or your health or that create inner discord are the obstacles that must be overcome. Be firm, unemotional, gentle, and clear in annihilating them and thereby reforming your Self and your environment.” ~The I Ching Workbook, R.L Wing

Accepting the Challenge.

As you learn to navigate this new energy, you will need to adapt your mindset and decision making skills to the different influences of Air and Water. Use these Archetypal Charts to help you assess how you’re doing:

Kuan Yin leaves us with these words to the wise about how to handle difficult beginnings:

“You can sense the difficulties that lie ahead on your path. If you nevertheless plunge into the forest of obstacles without an experienced guide, you will surely lose your way.” ~ Hexagram #3 DIFFICULT BEGINNINGS, The I Ching Workbook by R.L. Wing
