Midwinter Transitions

Intuitive Reading from the I Ching or Book of Change – Midwinter Transition.

In this intuitive reading, Soul Resources offers guidance through the I Ching to support your midwinter transition in 2025.

Chinese Zodiac

There are 12 archetypal animal energies or zodiacal signs that govern each Chinese Lunar New Year. January 29th, 2025 marked the transition into the New Year of the Yin Wood Snake.

Finding Balance in Times of Transition ~

The Chinese usher in their New Year with over 15 days of carefully orchestrated celebrations. Our society doesn’t invest the same time or care in ceremony, however, I have found that it’s profoundly valuable to take a pause and acknowledge important rites of passage. Let’s take some time to respectfully acknowledge the transition of one archetypal energy to the other.

The Dragon’s energy is taking his leave and will be completely gone shortly after the Lunar New Year.

Just like this past year, the Dragon is quick to come and go. So, quickly take a moment to say goodbye and thank you. His intelligent and generous nature has helped us to rise above the many obstacles and dangers that bedeviled us in 2024. In addition, his endurance and ability to travel great distances in a short time motivated us to envision higher aspirations and exposed the folly of acting too quickly without forethought. If you ask respectfully, perhaps he will leave some final advice for this midwinter transition on his way out…

If the past year has exhausted you, Dragon recommends that you Exit Deteriorating Situations, then Reclaim and Ground in Your Power as quickly as possible.

Getting to Know the Energy of the Snake ~

Year of the Snake: 1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013, 2025, 2037…

The positive qualities of Snake are: Energetic, Sociable, Graceful, Wise, Perceptive and Determined. However, the negative qualities that you can encounter are: Jealousy. Unapproachable. Suspicious. Sly and Inconsistent.

Complimentary Zodiac Signs are Ox and Rooster.

The Snake’s Secret Friend is Monkey and she is decidedly repelled by Boar/Pig.

Important Note: Two 12 year cycles ago, the Year of the Snake was 2001, a time of huge transformation in the U.S. and throughout the World.

If the past is any indication, 2025 promises similar levels of change, whether we like them or not. However, the Snake isn’t all bad news. She holds the energy for greater wisdom and perceptive determination to take good care of herself and the Earth. After all, she is a mother too. Under her cool and watchful gaze we have the opportunity to shed any lies that we may have been telling ourselves, both individually and collectively.

Snake is a great advocate for the truth, being cautious and dealing with things as they really are, which makes it a good year for letting go of rash behaviors and extreme ideas.

At first glance, Snake confirms that we’re going to need plenty of help Setting Clear Boundaries to keep our minds quiet.

Obviously, there’s plenty of trouble afoot. She recommends Developing Precognition or “intuitive hits” to help you stay out of danger as much as possible.

You may be confronted with extreme situations that you need to drop quickly and distance yourself from. Find out what’s going on and shed those old skins with Stuck in the Past.

As soon as you can, turn your attention to how you can improve your sense of stability and safety in your personal space using Creating Internal Safety.

Guidance from Kuan Yin and the I Ching

Kuan Yin has been helping us to transition into a New Paradigm based on common ground for the common good since 2009 and has some direct words to share with us:

“When the foundation of a building is collapsing, it’s natural for the people caught up in it to go into emergency and cling to something they think will save them. However, those who grab onto a part of the old paradigm structure that’s already falling apart are putting themselves in danger and actually working against their own best interests.

You may not be aware of how you’re clinging to your own past. It may seem, in your mind, that because things used to work in a certain way, they still do. You may even insist that what you understood to be real then is true now. When strong mental connections are challenged, strong emotions rise up. You may even grip harder and search for others who share your point of view. This is a classic survival response and completely understandable.

You may feel safer initially, because the group gives energy to the old deteriorating structure and that helps you feel more secure. However, the underlying framework is still unstable.

This midwinter transition provides an important opportunity to build a new structure in the present that could actually support you and others going into the future. Once you let go of the fear and other things that keep pulling you into the past, you can open to something much more hopeful.”

The I Ching

The original intent of the I Ching was based on an Eastern philosophy of observation and marking changes in natural and human events. Through many centuries and contributions from shamans and master teachers, including Lau Tzu and Confucius, the Book of Change was developed into a full philosophy for applying beneficial human conduct to varying circumstances. The Art of Feng Shui is part of that philosophy.

Stay Calm and Steady Through MODERATION

The I Ching energy has been traveling in multiple highway patterns for some time and it’s likely to continue that way.

Following the Tao or “gate through which all things move”.

Whenever that happens, instability is exaggerated. The best way for you to find your own balance is to find and follow the flow of Hexagram #15 MODERATION or “the Middle Road.” The original text offers explicit warnings and advice for keeping your balance during this Midwinter Transition.

“In social relationships, avoid extremes. People who are overly intelligent or overly ignorant tend to extremes in their behavior and attitudes…

Your inner development now requires a modest and sincere attitude. Do not indulge in extremes of any sort, and instead strive for MODERATION in all that you do… In this way you use the balancing tendency of the current forces to center yourself. This inner equilibrium aligns you with the tao, thus bringing you into harmony with forces that can work for you…”

CH’IEN, firmness in the upper trigram of cosmic ideals is full of its own strength while the mountainous KEN, stillness, is immovable in the lower trigram of human affairs. Each is an extreme, yet the existence of each moderates the other. Without changing lines, the hexagram MODERATION reflects a need for temperance in dealing with the object of your inquiry. Carefully measure your reactions by disengaging from opinionated attitudes. Only in this way can you begin to make progress.” ~ Hexagram #15 MODERATION, The I Ching Workbook, R.L. Wing, Random House, NYC, NY, 1979

Another prominent Energy Highway is described in Hexagram #23 DETERIORATION.

” There is an impressive display of DETERIORATION in nearly every aspect of the current affair. These lesser elements and those who represent them have gained complete control over the situation…

In political affairs and matters of power the time may be thought of as a rapid DETERIORATION or overthrow. There exists now an abundance of incompetent persons in positions of authority to help bring this about…

The text continues to warn against forging ahead at this time. Your best course is to wait out the difficult times and protect yourself by generously providing for those close to you.“

There exists a brief time where the flow of Hexagram #49 CHANGING is available.

If, at all possible, you see an avenue open for positive change, take advantage of the opportunity.

“The forces at work in the situation are in conflict, leaving the path open to change. Yet the work of bringing about such a change is as difficult as it is important. People fear change because of its unknowable effect upon the future; so when a real need for CHANGING makes itself felt, it is a serious matter indeed. Clarity, forethought, and great devotion are now required to achieve your purpose. If correctly handled, however, the results can lead to a progressive new era.”

To clarify, Kuan Yin teaches that each of the Hexagrams has a distinct flow that you can come into sync with and use to your benefit.

When you don’t see any benefit in following a particular highway, the flow for MODERATION is always available, it just takes effort and experience to stay in balance with it.

“Your inner development now requires a modest and sincere attitude. Do not indulge in extremes of any sort, and instead strive for MODERATION in all that you do… In this way you use the balancing tendency of the current forces to center yourself. This inner equilibrium aligns you with the tao, thus bringing you into harmony with forces that can work for you…” MODERATION, The I Ching Workbook, R.L. Wing, Random House, NYC, NY, 1979

Numerology and the Tarot

The Tarot Major Arcana Card for 2025 is #IX The Hermit (2+ 0 + 2 + 5 = 9)

The Hermit represents the ONE IDENTITY, or IAM. Whether it be the consciousness of a man or a woman, the Soul who has attained enlightenment stands upon the mountain peaks as a light bearer for those below on the path. He or she is solitary, alone. This symbolism contradicts the fact that in reality, the central Self of every one of us, which seems to us to be separate from every other Self, is that same ONE IDENTITY.

The number 9 is about completion – the completion of a cycle. The neutral color of his robes suggests the ability to neutralize the opposites of black and white. Therefore, the Hermit is a guide for when one needs inner clarity and to shine light on the furthering of one’s Soul or Soul’s purpose. However, following just any light in the darkness can be hazardous. False lights and bedazzlements obstruct inner development and enlightenment.

When our actions are illuminated by the Soul, rather than the status quo, important information about timing, reversals or polarity are available and will serve us going forward.

Assistance for Those Experiencing Extreme Stress ~

As you can see, a decidedly different combination of energies are taking form that will require us to cross over into new territory. Hopefully, a place where we can find new resources for courage, endurance and faith in ourselves.

Soul Oriented Solutions offers assistance through Self-care Formulas and Mind Exercises that have been designed to help those who are exhausted, still in shock, overwhelmed or emotionally drained due to extreme weather events and socio-political change.

If you or someone you know is experiencing extreme stress and needs quick assistance for overwhelm and other symptoms of PTSD, this resource can help…

Resources for Healing Hate

Release the Binding Energy of Hate

Many people are having a difficult time healing hate and keeping their hearts open to hope and peaceful possibilities.

Since healing hate is a big topic of concern, let’s talk about the energy of hate and how it affects our energetic system.

I learned early on in my intuitive practice that hate is a binding energy. What I mean by that is when you “hate” something, your thoughts, your mindset and your energy gets very hard and constricted – not to mention your heart.

The same goes for anger, however, anger is more of an immediate reaction – it usually comes up to let you know that something is off – something is wrong that needs your attention right away. Anger is your friend when it’s telling you that there’s some aspect of a situation that’s isn’t good for you and is contributing to your experience of unhappiness.

Yes, you read that right! I’ll repeat it – anger is a very useful emotion when it motivates you to get centered and take productive action to change something that’s causing you harm. It gives you the energy to pull yourself out of complacency and disloyalty to your own highest good.

The I Ching talks about these kinds of situations in the text of Hexagram #36 Censorship:
“…in areas of personal and spiritual development, this situation can help you learn to accept times of evil. If one attempts to aggressively deny or ignore evil, then evil is often nurtured in one form or another. Good and evil are as much a part of the cosmos as night and day. It is much easier to develop a sound character once evil is acknowledged and accepted as part of the world. ~ The I Ching Workbook, R. L. Wing

The trick to navigating anger is what you do with it after the heat of the moment. Do you use that energy to go for the results you really want or do you get stuck in it? Does hate take control over you?

Hate is stuck anger hardened into a whole belief system and feedback loop.

People like to bond with each other through hate, because it’s easy to feel justified when we can get others to agree with us.

We fixate our attention on the object of our hate and send angry thoughts toward it, thinking that somehow doing so will make it go away and ease our suffering. We generalize about people and refuse to accept that there might possibly be anything good about the object of our hate. We revel in the energy boost that anger creates.

Unfortunately, narcissists are especially good at taking advantage of that group energy.

Simply put, when we let our anger harden into hate, we get caught in a powerful collective feedback loop and miss the opportunity to transform a harmful situation for the better.

There’s an old saying, “What I believe about you, I awaken within you.” To understand that better, compare the thought to “what I put out, comes back to me.”

These are the premises of the Law of Reciprocity, or Karma.

If I buy into the idea that what I put out comes back to me at all, it would be pretty hard on me if I were to put out that any particular group of people are only lying, cheating, dangerous predators!

This kind of all or nothing generalization is simply not helpful. Not only is it untrue, it would also cause me to:

Bind myself to the “lie” even more strongly
Cheat myself out of a lot of potential friends and relationships
Create dangerous situations for myself by feeding the seeds of violence in myself and others and,
Stamp out my own potential to be happy.

Yet returning hate for more hate is how the feedback loop gets maintained. The more we do it, the stronger it becomes. When will we decide to stop feeding this self-perpetuating trap and step out of it?

How can we turn a life destructive flow around?

Just to clarify what we mean by karma here –
Karma = Cause & Effect
i.e. I have a thought. I make a decision. I act on the decision.
Whatever I have followed through on has natural consequences.
Cause & Effect = Karma.

Rheanni Lightwater _ Resources for Healing Hate — Rheanni Lightwater, CHT, CKP, Reiki Master Teacher

Since 2001, I have been developing and using the Intuitive Learning Circles with Reiki, Energy Healing, Hypnotherapy and practical shamanic practices to optimize my own spiritual growth and assist others in finding their way through the maze of our collective dysfunction.

This collection of Mind Exercises and Transformation Games is devoted to helping us to find a way out of this karmic bind.

Healing the Emotional Roots of Hate ~

How can we transform the stress and suffering that comes with a hardened mindset of hate? I suggest that we start by enhancing our inner guidance. After all, we don’t want to run off in the heat of our anger and do something that’s actually hurtful to us!

Take a few minutes with this Circle to breathe and relax. Calm your senses and bring them into balance. Some may be turned up too high and some may be too low.

Take some deep breaths and let your shoulders drop. Adjust the volume to perceive your situation clearly. Notice how that calms you emotionally. Do that both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body to achieve greater mind body integration.

Mind Body Integration

The Intuitive Learning Circles work best when you look at each symbol both crossed over the midline of the body and uncrossed so that the correction is more complete.

Why? Because the brain and the body communicate with each other through one set of channels when you are uncrossed and another set when you are crossed. If you can’t get the information one way, you might be able to get it in the other. The same goes for making corrections – we want whatever correction is needed to be made all of the time, not just some of the time.

If you try this, and it still doesn’t work, you may have an internal conflict or fixation that’s interfering with cognitive function. Not to worry. If that happens, scroll back up to the Conflicts and Fixations image above and relax into it.

Healing Hate: Releasing Agreements and Social Contracts ~

Next, I suggest that we release our agreement to hold the energy of hate in our nervous systems, as if it’s helpful to us! Don’t forget that many agreements to hate are based on social contracts from our ancestral, cultural and religious lines. Look at the Soul Contract Circle and imagine that you can mindfully send the symbol all the way up and down your spine, unlocking harmful agreements as you go:

“I gently release my nervous system from the binding energy of hate.”

“I release any agreement I have to buy into the energy and mindset of extremism and hate. I unlock ancestral chains that bind me. I release any vow I’ve taken to keep the destructive fires burning.”

“I release any ancestral/societal agreement I have to plant the seeds of distress and hatred in the ground or in my own heart.
I let go of trying to fix other people’s hate and heal myself.
It’s time to stop perpetuating negativity in myself or Mother Earth.
I now choose to create peaceful prosperity and understanding.”

Then, be more specific. Use the same Circle in a different way to identify and release agreements to hold hatred towards different people, groups or organizations that you feel are wrong. There are far more productive energies to use that will be more helpful to you, like a gentle violet flame.

If you’re willing, go through each item on your list with these positive affirmations:

“I release all my agreements to hate __________________.” (how people act, how hard my job is, how stuck I feel, etc.)

“I pull my energy back and release my agreements to react out of violence, resentment or revenge.”

“I release all agreements to mobilize the destructive energies of hate. I utilize gentler and more productive energies to manifest my highest good.”

Don’t forget to release any agreement to hate yourself! It’s amazing how much energy you can free up by doing this.
“I free up the energy I waste on hate and redirect it towards supporting my highest good.”

There are other agreements we can change to help us navigate out of the maze.

The out-dated system of the Patriarchy currently affirms that only certain classes or sexes of people are heard and respected. Release your agreements with that system and set up new agreements to organize around healthy and cooperative dealings in the New Paradigm based on common ground for the common good. That includes equality, co-operation with Nature and balanced prosperity.

“I release agreements to stay grounded in the old paradigm of the status quo.”

“I release entanglements with herd mentalities of ______, ______, & ______.”

“I redirect my mindset & energy to the template of Common Ground for the Common Good.”

Another agreement to change would be to source your responses from a place of Gratitude and Joy, rather than from a fearful, greedy or vengeful place.

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

“I decide to source from Gratitude and Joy that springs from my own heart.”

This symbol from Soul Prayer Charts helps you to interface with your environment more efficiently. Most of us need assistance in making the transition from the old paradigm of Water (Piscean Age) to the New Paradigm of Air (Aquarian Age). Relax and close down all heavy or destructive energy channels that your mind or body may still be open and vulnerable to.

“I close down harsh and harmful energy channels from the past.”

“I adapt to the lighter, quicker flow of chi’ available in the New Paradigm
to the best of my ability.”

“I am open to generative Life Force to manifest improved health, happiness and relationships in the world.”

“I connect to the new, life affirming channels of communication.”

Healing hate requires a lot of change and in this new energy, it’s important that we be gentle with ourselves by slowing down and devoting our attention and intentions towards integrating safely

You’d be amazed at how much healing you’ve put into action with just this short introduction. Take a few minutes to contemplate the Master symbol for the Intuitive Learning Circles which puts you in touch with the deepest, wisest aspects of your being – Old Sol.

“I release any ancestral tendencies to perpetuate hate, war or self-destruction.”

“I make a conscious choice to release shame, blame, revenge, resentment and societal patterns of self-destruction and hate.”

How can we sort ourselves out of the roots of hate?

Especially if you’re a good Samaritan or employed in one of the helping professions, confusion around hateful attitudes can easily escalate into dramas of monumental proportions.

Without even realizing it, you can get seriously off track from priorities that are vital to your health and well-being. Plus, it can happen so quickly, you might not even notice it until you’re up to your eyeballs in confusing and toxic emotions!

Now that you have an idea of what’s involved with freeing your heart and mind from the grip of hatred, you may want to get some assistance from Kuan Yin and her selected offerings of Advanced Transformation Games.

REFORMING Your Life: What Did You Learn?

We are all being challenged to contemplate and REFORM certain aspects of our lives and create a new path forward.

Can we effectively let go of the old paradigm based on greed, fear and extremism while we intentionally move into a New Paradigm based on co-operation, equality and balanced prosperity?

Kuan Yin has been helping us to transition through a variety of readings, games and Power Circles since 2009. Her advice springs from the I Ching, an ancient book of divination that follows the flow of the cosmos.

The Great Conjunction on Winter Solstice 2020 marked the official start of what some call the Aquarian Age. Kuan Yin simply refers to it as a New Paradigm based on the Common Good. Her guidance for this game comes from Hexagram #21 REFORM:

“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

To help you better connect with her assistance, Kuan Yin uses the Intuitive Learning Circles to communicate through meditation, positive affirmations and visualization.

Mind Body Integration

For best results playing a Transformation Game, look at each Circle both crossed over the midline of the body and uncrossed so that the correction is more complete.

Kuan Yin’s I Ching Readings and Transformation Games can help you to identify problems, change your focus to positive solutions, ground yourself and get in the present. Simply relax and gaze at the Circles while CONTEMPLATING Kuan Yins words. Your intuition will come forward and give you the help that you seek.

What Did You Learn?

Often our need to be right keeps us from learning what we need to know about difficult situations. The intent of this game has two aspects:

How can we learn from our mistakes, missteps and miscommunications?
How can we be kind to ourselves and come up with real solutions to follow through on that will help things go better as we move forward?

First, get out some paper and something to write or draw with. Give yourself permission to draw or color during this exercise. Notes to yourself don’t have to be linear!

Next, choose an experience that you know you need help with and are willing to look at honestly. Examples might be: What did I learn in the decade between from 2012 and 2022? During the pandemic? In my previous relationship? In how I handle conflict at work? You can make your inquiry as specific or general as you like. Make a note or image of what this inquiry is about.

Then, let’s agree that your responses are for you and that you don’t have to share them with anyone else, unless you want to.

What Did You Learn is a self discovery game just for you!

Soul Guidance

Relax into this symbol and ask for general intuitive information about your situation from Old Sol with these questions.

“What do I need to know about this? What would be helpful?”

“Is something missing? Is something lost?
Do I need to let go of something?
Does something need to come into balance?

Quickly make a note of any answers that come up. You don’t need to understand at this point. Just write down any answers that come to you.

You may want to get additional help from Gifts from the Rainforest. If so, ask for a number between 1 and 58 and follow the instructions for accessing intuition.

Sometimes our experiences can be pretty rough, yet somehow we make it through. How do we know what worked and what didn’t?

This energy clearing is designed to help you relax and look back at what you’ve learned about a significant life event, now that you can be more objective…

1. Begin by taking a few deep breaths. It’s possible that your experience and the transition coming out of it has been stressful and you still may be feeling it. Use this Circle to help you relax and release some of that tension. Releasing tension can do a lot to prevent or relieve many symptoms of ptsd.

Did this experience contain a lot of conflict, anxiety or frustration for you? Did you feel a lot of judgement or fear? Are you concerned that you might return to certain energies and attitudes that were prevalent then?

If so, relax and imagine that the lines in this first Circle are softening and melting the tension away. Let your shoulders drop and your jaw unclench. Every time you take a deep breath, that feeling loosens up. Take all the time you need with this.

Mind Body Integration

For best results playing a Transformation Game, look at each Circle both crossed over the midline of the body and uncrossed so that the correction is more complete.

2. Imagine you can open the doors and windows and get a breath of fresh air. It’s been pretty musty in there!

Continue breathing and if you can, imagine you can actually relax the tension in the space around you. Go ahead and move around or stretch if you need to.

3. Let your senses come back into balance. Some of them may have gotten turned up too high. Some may have shut down completely. You can adjust the volume now.

You might imagine that you’re lying next to a beautiful lake or river, enjoying a gentle breeze, with the sunlight dancing on the water. How refreshing!

Once you’ve taken this time to refresh yourself, notice how different the energy feels now rather than how it did just a few minutes ago. You can let go of all that chaos now.

4. Okay. Now we’re ready to dive in with the main question:

What did you learn from _____________________?

Use this Circle to gather pertinent information from your unconscious mind about that experience.

5. What did you learn about yourself and how you react?

Bring your attention to your solar plexus area, the place where your instinctual awareness is centered and transmits important information about your needs and how you do your best to meet them.

Utilize this Soul Star Chakra Key to clear out and release toxic energies that may have accumulated in this energy center.

6. Kuan Yin wants to know: What do you still need to learn?

Is there anything unresolved? What would you like to have happen going forward?

Let this Reiki Chakra Key strengthen your Heart and bring truly beneficial lessons into greater awareness and balance.

Continue to breathe until you feel the energy there can radiate out, like a beautiful star!

7. Is there still a CONFLICT left over from that experience? If so, is it your conflict or someone else’s?

How might you handle conflict differently now?

Is there any DANGER left over from that experience? Is there something that needs to be handled around that?

What have you learned about safety, responsibility, boundaries, freedom, etc? Take each specific concern one at a time.

What do they mean to you now that’s different from what it was during that experience? Gather up all that unconscious information so that you can make appropriate changes!

8. What did you learned about fear or anxiety and how you handle it?

What did you learn about protecting yourself?

9. Did you internalize a lot of things? If so, how did you handle that? What did you learn about that?

If you didn’t take things too personally, what do you think was the secret to your success?

10. What did you learn about taking good care of yourself?
What became apparent?
What was the area of most personal growth for you?

Would you like to integrate any benefits you learned about those things?
What are your priorities after all of this? What matters the most?

11. Do you feel that any changes happened that affected your sense of identity and purpose?

What wisdom does your Soul want you to take with you about that?

12. What did you learn about nourishing yourself? What did you change in regard to that? Is it still serving you now? Do you need time to digest and integrate what you learned?

Are you tapping into beneficial nourishment now?

13. Are there parts of you that are still caught up in what happened?

If so, see if you can gently and patiently pull your energy back from that experience.

14. Do you have any objects in your environment that are keeping you unconsciously connected to that period of time?

Is there any room or part of the building(s) that feels blocked, dead or unable to ground in the New Paradigm?

15. Are there any new decisions you would like to make as a result of what you learned?

What would you like to decide differently about dealing with change? How about taking care of others? What have you decided about standing up for yourself and maintaining healthy boundaries? How will you now deal with deception, neglect or misuse of authority?

16. What new agreements or intentions do you need to make after that experience?

What new intentions do you want to make about dealing with change? How about taking care of others? What new intentions do you need to make about balanced prosperity? What about standing up for yourself and maintaining healthy boundaries? What are your intentions about dealing with deception, neglect or misuse of authority?

17. Let yourself relax for a few minutes while you get centered and find a strong connection in your heart center to empower the positive changes you would like to make.

Ask your Soul to help you integrate all that you’ve learned and use it to empower your highest good as you move into this next phase of your life.

“I empower the wisdom I’ve gained from this experience.”

18. What is the very best thing you can do to help yourself in the here and now?

19. Take a moment to close down any drains from that period of time that are affecting your energy, your business, your health and your happiness.

20. To finish this game, gaze at this last symbol and consciously close any harmful or chaotic energy channels that may still be open from your experience of that time.

“I close down all harmful energy channels.”

Be sure to do that both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body.

You’ll know that the harmful channels are closed when the emotional chaos and mental chatter stops. Once that happens, gently and patiently acknowledge your new relationship with generative life flow that exists now to support you.

“I allow myself to receive generative life force.”

Yes. Sometimes our experiences can be pretty rough. Congratulations on all that you’ve learned from it!

Are You Catastrophizing?

One of the biggest challenges we face is how to get past all the catastrophizing that’s going on and get to some real solutions.

When a person is CATASTROPHIZING, they are imagining the worst possible outcome of an action or event. It’s so easy to blow everything out of proportion, especially after all we’ve been through! Turn on any form of media and within minutes you’re hit with intense waves of anger, fear, outrage, even paranoia. Before you know it, your energy is scattered all over the place and you’re feeling hopeless.

Certainly, there are plenty of disastrous events that are actually happening. I’m not suggesting that we isolate, live in denial or surround ourselves with ‘nothing to see here’ apathy.

However, putting all that emotional energy into the drama while ignoring the solutions is like feeding a shark and then expecting it to just peacefully swim away. It ain’t gonna happen!

Our problems can’t be solved from the same mental position they were created from. The same is true for you. A positive balance can be struck by consciously pulling your attention and energy away from all those problems and redirecting them to genuinely helpful solutions.

It may sound hard to do, but learning to stop catastrophizing is possible.

With this sequence of Intuitive Learning Circles, you can easily refocus and let go of some of that fear you’ve been feeling. All you have to do is be open and follow the simple directions. Each Circle helps gather unconscious information, organize awareness and illuminate solutions that come directly from your Soul. You are in charge!

Start out by taking a moment to consider what situations are bothering you the most. What seems to be the most upsetting to you?

You could be catastrophizing about anything – environment, work, family, politics, AI technology, social media or even a personal relationship.

What upsetting event comes to mind first?

Where do you feel it in your body?

With that situation in mind, scroll down and gaze softly at the short sequence of Intuitive Learning Circles below. Let each Circle help you access intuitive answers to the questions that go along with them.

Step 1:

Take a moment to relax and take a few deep breaths. Let your shoulders drop and gently look at the Circle in whatever way that appeals to you. Once you feel pretty relaxed, ask yourself this question:

“What am I paying too much attention to that isn’t in my best interests?”

It’s important to accept whatever comes to you because that answer is your Inner Guidance sending a warning to you.

Step 2:

Gaze softly at this next Circle that helps you access your unconscious decisions:

“What decisions am I making about this situation? What have I decided about other people? What have I decided about myself? Are those productive thoughts?”

If they are productive, great! Bring them together and make them even stronger.

If they’re not productive, what kind of thoughts and decisions would be better for you to make? Would you be willing to give yourself and other people a break? Don’t judge, just keep a mental note. Oftentimes when we change our decisions, the situation begins to change too.

Step 3:

Use this Circle to help you connect with a more positive energy that lives within.

“I connect to the Source of Joy and Gratitude that lives in my heart center.”

“I decide to empower a healthy and hopeful frame of mind in regard to this situation.”

“I am empowered to ___________.”

This may take a few minutes, so take all the time you need. Move around and stretch if you like.

Step 4.

As you gaze at this Correction Key for repairing your energy field, ask yourself:

“Am I willing to heal the pathways in my energy that are jagged, torn, blocked or turned inside out?”

If you are, use your imagination with this Key to smooth the energy out.
If you’re not, can you tell what’s holding you up?

Step 5:

Bring yourself fully into the present. Open and close your hands. Take a look at the time… remember how old you are… find something in your space that you can really connect to.
These are all things that can help you get more centered.

What do you need to do to get grounded?

Step 6.

Put your hand on your heart and meditate on this symbol for a few minutes with this positive affirmation:

“I connect my consciousness with Hope.”

Make sure you’re relaxing as much as possible. Roll your shoulders if you need to. Adjust how you’re seated. Hope is a virtue that connects you with your Soul.

Step. 7

When you’re ready, check your progress…

“Does it feel like I’m moving in a better direction?”

Step 8.

If the answer you get is “no” or “I’m not sure,” use this Circle to imagine that your Soul can turn you towards the direction of your highest good and close the door completely on all that catastrophizing.

“The path in my mind that leads to disaster is sealing and healing.
I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”

Once you’re clear that you’re heading in a positive direction, you can thank your lucky stars that you have successfully pulled yourself out of emotional chaos.

Congratulations!

Now that you know what kind of issues are especially upsetting, you can make a plan to find some good solutions. For now, though, you probably need to rest or go do something entirely different. After all, catastrophizing is hard work!

Take a few minutes for yourself to walk, get out in nature or do something that will help you relax.
