Power Circle – Rabbit Tracks

Manifesting in 2023 with Kuan Yin’s Power Circle and Rabbit Tracks

Tuning in and going with the flow of nature is a difficult thing for most human beings. We’ve been trained since childhood to use force and effort to accomplish our aims. In fact, in many circles, it’s considered a weakness to behave in any other way.

Kuan Yin's Power Circles - Rabbit TracksSince 2009, Kuan Yin has been co-creating with us to find another, more peaceful way for you to manifest your goals called “The Power Circle of Life – Ten Stages of Natural Physical Manifestation.” This process has been inspired by Reiki, Tibetan Energy Work, Feng Shui and Hawaiian Huna, and has been developed for those who truly desire to create in alignment with Nature. In that way, they can experience the abundance and joy of surrendering to the flow of creativity or “happiness”.

The purpose of each Stage in the Power Circle of Life is to illuminate how you can be more in the flow in any situation and this year, Kuan Yin has partnered with the Rabbit Animal Totem to help us manifest more effectively in the New Paradigm…

Animal Totem Tracks with the Rabbit

It’s time to make friends with the positive Rabbit archetype and use her gentler energy to invite more peace and prosperity into your life. 

RabbitRabbit positive energy traits: Docile. Peaceful. Fertile. Tender. Quiet. Gentle. Cautious and Considerate.

Reversed energy traits: Irresolute. Skittish. Stubborn. Timid. Escapist and tending to Procrastination.

With this series of Ten Power Circles we will get to know the the gentle and considerate qualities of the Rabbit and utilize her quiet courage and quick response to danger.

Before you get started with the Power Circle, contemplate a few basic questions with the Rabbit Feng Shui Mandala.

If you’re tempted to go down a certain path, ask yourself, “Does this feel right? Could I be tricking myself?” The trickster aspect of Rabbit medicine knows better than to fight with things that are out of her league or to follow a path that has led to danger in the past.

If you’ve been down this road before, ask yourself, “What is the benefit of returning here? Has it yielded benefits in the past? How did they turn out? What, if anything, doesn’t smell right about this? What would be different this time?” Rabbit knows from experience that fear, malice and sabotage have a distinct smell. She knows when it’s wise to retreat and tend to the safety of her own burrow. In this set of games you will learn to recognize if something is off or out of sync. 

Not only that, Rabbit’s fertility and connection with family, community and prosperity is legendary. She lives in groups and has learned to be considerate of the neighbors living in her warren. Living in common ground is her home turf. What a lovely metaphor and teaching for us human beings at this time!

Rabbit Tracks in the New Paradigm

Invite the Rabbit’s quiet courage and cooperative nature to inspire new ways to communicate and relate with one another this Winter in the New Paradigm.

What Process Is Best for Me – Right Now?

There are 10 Stages of Physical Manifestation to choose from ~

Old Sol - Rabbit Tracks
Old Sol

 1. Inspiration
2. Attention
3. Intention
4. Adaptation
5. Perception
6. Organization
7. Decision
8. Determination
9. Celebration
10. Completion

Each Stage has a game that Rabbit and Kuan Yin recommends for successful manifesting in 2023. Please note: Many people are feeling completely stuck. If that’s happening for you, start with Blockages to Happiness.

The first step is to take a moment to look at Old Soul (your higher guidance) and think about what you’re hoping to create. Then, ask your heart:

“What Stage would be most useful for me to look at now?”
Or you could ask yourself:
“Which number between 1 and 10 represents the best self awareness process for me right now – or is the best place to start?”

Remember to take the very first number that comes to you, because that is your Inner Wisdom speaking or your intuition.
Once you have your number, scroll down the list and check out that process. You might be surprised at what you chose, because your Higher Self has access to information that you do not. Trust your first response and explore the exercise anyway. Rabbit is particularly good at sniffing out trouble that needs to be handled before you commit to jumping down that Rabbit Hole!

If you have a journal, make notes of important insights and ideas that come to you during the process, or use the back of the paper if you prefer. Feel free to sketch if you like. This is the intuitive way to determine which exercise is best for you right now!

Suggestion: Early on in your journey with Rabbit, go through Open Your Heart and Make Friends to develop a truly co-operative relationship!

Of course, if you want, you can always get help with Rheanni if you want more private coaching. Her contact info can be found at the bottom of this page…

1. Inspiration – Birthing a Heartfelt Desire

Power Circle - Rabbit Tracks InspirationRabbit says, “When you come upon tasty morsels and helpful resources, take full advantage of the opportunity.” Without a doubt, she recommends using prosperous energy to manifest prosperity. Enhance and refine your awareness of what is genuinely beneficial to your health, your projects and your relationships.

Confirm that What You Want to Nourish Will Nourish You. (Three Parts)

2.  Attention – Focusing the Desire

Rabbit Tracks Power CircleRabbit warns, “If you don’t feel it’s safe to go down a rabbit hole, don’t go down it! If you decide to travel  a path that doesn’t feel joyful, you probably won’t enjoy it once you get to your destination!” Find a way out of this no-win situation by taking some time in the beginning to examine what’s really going on and make joy your priority.

Get a New Perspective by Going For Joy, Rather than Perfection.

3. Intention – Voicing the Desire

Power Circle: Rabbit Tracks - IntentionRabbit is known as a trickster, but she also doesn’t want to get tricked herself! “Make sure your intentions don’t have hidden sabotage buried in them. Be sure to ask for help from those who are liable to give it.” Commune with your Soul to create an authentic request that will bring together the needed elements for attracting your highest good.

Ask for Healing from the Past and Set New Intentions for Peace and Prosperity. 

 4. Adaptation – Expanding an Awareness of the Possibilities

Power Circle: Rabbit Tracks - AdaptationWhen something has gone awry with your plans yet another time, Rabbit recommends digging down into the details. “Be careful whose garden you’re nibbling from. Meddling in other people’s business is always a dangerous proposition!” You may need to go back to where the misunderstanding began to find the right pieces to your puzzle.

Use the Power of Your Word to Let Go of Old Conflicts and Confusion.

5. Perception – Activating the Imagination 

Power Circle: Rabbit Tracks - PerceptionRabbit tells us not to get tricked by our own imaginations. “Don’t let old habits and limitations fool you! When making changes or starting something new – make sure your vision is uplifting, safe and prosperous.” Are you seeing it right? What criteria are you using? If you sincerely ask for the very best you’re liable to get it.

Use Your Imagination to Help You Visualize Success.

6. Organization – Refine and Prioritize

Power Circle: Rabbit Tracks - Organization“Before you jump into a rabbit hole – first of all – make sure it’s yours! Secondly, check that you’ve got what you need to be peaceful, prosperous and happy. Thirdly – in case your plan doesn’t work out – make sure you have a way out.” Your Soul has a distinct feel and its own ways of creating happiness. Make sure your energy, efforts and direction are organized around and guided by your Soul.

Following Your Path in the Year of The Chariot.

7. Decision – Conscious Alignment of Energy

Power Circle: Rabbit Tracks - DecisionRabbit medicine has good advice about making decisions in CHANGING conditions… “Keep alert and flexible. Take advantage when true opportunities present themselves. However, things could change quickly. If you find yourself in a dangerous place, get out of there, post haste! When escape is out of the question, patiently wait for an opening or solutions to present themselves. Then, once they do – take quick action.”

Use Intuitive Guidance for Decisions and Specific Actions to Take.

8. Determination – Follow Through 

Power Circle: Rabbit Tracks - DeterminationFollowing through effectively is the Art of making sure your actions are timed correctly and that you trust your instincts about what you’re getting into. Let Rabbit help you develop an extra-sensory awareness about avoiding DANGER and being in the right place at the right time. “Train yourself to refine your senses. Fear and malice have a distinct smell, learn to recognize them.”

Develop Precognition and Stay Out of Trouble. 

9. Celebration – Experience of Success and Satisfaction

Power Circle: Rabbit Tracks - CelebrationRabbit knows that loving and taking good care of herself is the essence of her well-being and prosperity. She wants you to know that whether or not you know it, you are loved! Your true guides and angelic guardians love and care about you. “We just want to be sure you’re showing up for yourself in the ways that you need to be truly successful.”

Take a Quiz to Know How Well You’re Showing Up for Yourself.

10. Completion – Acceptance of the Circle of Life

Power Circle: Rabbit Tracks - Completion“The end of a cycle is the very best time to rest. Make sure your past business is finished so that you can be rested and fully able to commit yourself to the next cycle of creation.” Accept the importance of your karmic lessons and recollect yourself. Finish up any kind of business that needs finishing so that you can be more successful with what you want to create next.

Gather Your Essence and Integrate What’s Happened.

Please note: Many people are feeling completely stuck because they have chronic UNFINISHED BUSINESS where the psyche is unable to move on. If that’s happening for you, start with going through Blockages to Happiness.

Reform Your Relationship with Your Environment

Reform and Liberate for the New Paradigm

First, a word about environmental changes and getting a grasp on the larger picture… Most people know on the unconscious level that a shift has occurred. However, the conscious mind may still be acting as if everything’s still the same. In order to REFORM and LIBERATE ourselves from the old paradigm appropriately, our minds will need signs and maps to assist us to navigate the new terrain. That is the reason and purpose for all the symbols and Intuitive Learning Circles on this website.

For example, If you meditate on the “map” available in this image, your mind can get a better grasp of what it can organize around in the New Paradigm we are in. This is the imprint of common ground based on cooperation, joy, equality and sustainable prosperity.

Reform and Recalibrate for the New Paradigm

Whenever conditions change, it follows that we’ll need to REFORM our intentions and LIBERATE our outmoded relationship with our environment.

For years, Kuan Yin has been saying that the way we humans have been living will have to radically change. Luckily, I was willing to listen and took some time every day to be sure I knew my relationship with my environment. Now that the flow of the Tao (the Gate of Life) is operating out of the influence of Air, rather than Water, many, many, many conditions have changed and are continuing to change at a far quicker pace than they ever have before.

This Transformation Game contains her latest advice after the “still point” of the Solstice season between 2022 and 2023.

As always, her advice is direct and to the point.

Kuan Yin's Transformation Games - Intentions and Feng Shui

REFORM and Recalibrate How You’re Interacting with the Flow of Life or Chi’ ~

The change in the quality of energy flow is significant when its dominant quality changes from Water to Air.

The Element of Air is about mental activity: Rational thought, putting concepts into words, discernment, understanding, decision. Successful projects include these components:

  • Clear messaging.
  • Clear intention (single-minded, straightforward, simple).
  • Motivation to cooperate.
  • Access to beneficial karma that will support the objective.

Intentions and Feng Shui - the Air Archetype

Therefore, unity of thought, simplicity, being straightforward and having the karma to follow through will effectively “cut through” any difficulties you’re having with your environment.

Check in with these questions:

Are my thoughts positive?
Is my intention clear?
Is my motivation life affirming?
Do I have the appropriate karma and reasoning to follow through successfully?

 

Reform Your Agreements

The energy of our agreements are important to release as part of this transformation because our agreements organize how we navigate through life. We each have agreements about ourselves, our relationships with others and our relationships with life and the environment. Some Soul Contracts are individual, while others are collective and tribal. You can keep them, you can break them or you can renegotiate them.

Your nervous system also holds the energy of those agreements. This Circle can help you to release or renegotiate any agreements that no longer serves you. To let go, start at the bottom of the line and the bottom of your spine.

As you move up, you can imagine a violet flame LIBERATING each vertebrae from the chains of outdated, oppressive agreements – all the way up to the top of your spine. Be sure to do that both crossed and uncrossed.

By doing so, you free up a lot of energy and effort that’s tangled up with the way things used to be which could be creating a lot of confusion or even health problems for you.

 

An environmental shift of this magnitude requires both internal and external changes.

Make new agreements with yourself to REFORM how you are interacting with the Elements of Water and Air so that you can work with them, rather than against them. Think about the difference between how you move when you’re wading through water as opposed to strolling down the street. It takes much less effort to move through Air.

Release how you interacted with the Water dominated, emotional 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.”

“It will help to slow down and use much less force for accomplishing my aims.”

 

In addition, the out-dated system of the Patriarchy currently affirms that you use and pollute the Land in whatever way you like. Rather than cultivating Mother Earth’s resources in a sustainable way, this system has aggressively extracted them and used her as a garbage dump for leftover trash and unwanted emotional garbage.

Release your agreement to use Earth in that way and set up new agreements for a healthy and equitable relationship with the Land.

“I release agreements to use Earth as a dumping ground.”

“I also release any agreement to be used as a dumping ground myself.”

“Instead, I choose to plant seeds of karma that will result in equitable co-operation, healthy balance, sustainable prosperity and personal responsibility.”

“I choose to respect myself and the Earth.”

 

Another agreement to change would be to SOURCE your intentions for life from a place of gratitude and joy, rather than from a grumpy, greedy or vengeful place.

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

“I now Source from Gratitude and Joy.”

If you have a copy of The Essential Human, ask if all aspects of your Essence are on board with making this change…

 

Another change that’s needed is in how we relate to and utilize the Element of Water.

Release your agreement with STAGNANT YIN ENERGY

Unfortunately, many people use toxic, stagnant yin water energy to process their feelings and to interact with others. This “stuck” energy relates to current social tendencies such as apathy, resistance, self-pity, co-dependence and laziness. Meditate on this symbol for a few minutes and then release any agreements you have to utilize it in your internal or external processes:

“I let go of old, heavy, stagnant or destructive flows of Water.”

Utilize pure Water to process and clear emotions.

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

This affirmation will help you make an actual adjustment in how you relate to and utilize this precious resource:

“I now make a conscious decision to use pure, life affirming Water to process my emotions and create vibrant  health.”

 

There are also changes around the archetypal Animal energy from the Chinese Zodiac: 

We have just left Year of the Black Yang Water TigerThe arrogant, grandiose and ferocious nature of the Tiger has left it’s mark in obvious ways throughout the past year.

The Year of the Yin Water Rabbit officially started on January 22nd, 2023.

Reform and Recalibrate with Rabbit

The beneficial qualities of the Rabbit are said to be: Docile. Peaceful. Fertile. Tender. Quiet. Gentle. Cautious and Considerate. Her fertility and connection with Family, Community and Prosperity is legendary.

Her more challenging qualities are liable to be: Irresolute. Skittish. Stubborn. Timid. Escapist and tending to Procrastination.

Rabbit is considered by many to be a trickster, however, if you are willing and able to make friends with her, she’s very good about warning you when somethings amiss. Because she’s so finely attuned to the passing scents of predators, she knows quick and clever ways to escape from any danger she may sense in her vicinity. If you ask nicely, she will help you to do the same: Does Rabbit sense any present danger for you? If so, is it near or far? Is there a place or activity that that would be better to avoid? What is her advice?

She’s also very good at sniffing out prosperity by finding the tastiest morsels, the coziest warrens and following the most profitable opportunities. Does she sense any valuable opportunities for you? What kind of activity would benefit you most right now?

 

Finally, the nature of chi’ or life force flowing through the Tao has changed to an Air based flow rather than the previous Water based flow.

Let this symbol help you make the adjustment needed.

“I close down all harmful energy channels from the old paradigm.”

Divine Protection for Difficult Beginnings
Divine Protection in the New Paradigm

“I allow my mind and body to acclimate to this lighter, quicker life force.”
“I learn to receive generative life force and use it in my relationship with my environment.”

Of course, this will all take some time to integrate. The adjustments needed 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. It’s worth it to take your time as you learn to navigate all these changes. Be proactive and intentional with what you want to set up for yourself.

‘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’.”

So that’s a lot of changes to adjust to. If you need to you can go through Future Pacing to clear up any harmful energy patterns.

Transmuting through Snake

“You’re ready to go beyond the extreme ‘either/or’ mentality and graduate to the ‘and’ consciousness of balance and unity… Like the snake, you have transcended the limitations of who you thought you were…

What Process Is Best for Me – Right Now?

Balancing with Plants SpiritsMany of you have asked,  “There’s so many Games and Exercises here in the Intuitive Learning Circle – how do I know which one is right for me?

Since we’re here to help you develop your intuition, it’s only natural that we would come up with a simple & fun way to decide – using your intuition!

First of all, it’s true that we have quite a few self-healing offerings, so below you’ll find a list of games that will help the Snake in you shed her old skins.

Snake Totem

There are 5 categories to choose from ~

I: Cosmos
II: Family
III: Environment
IV: Livelihood and
V: Self 

Each category has a selection of games listed underneath which are numbered 1, 2 and 3.

The first step is to take a moment and think about what’s going on for you and then look at the Snake Totem and ask your heart:

“What category would be most useful for me to look at now?”
Once you have the category number, ask yourself:
“Which number in that category represents the best self healing process for me right now – or is the best place to start?”

Remember to take the very first number that comes to you, because that is your Inner Wisdom speaking or your intuition. If more than one number comes up, write them all down in the order they came to you.
Once you have your number, scroll down the list and check out that process. You might be surprised at what you chose, because intuition doesn’t always makes sense at first. However, I suggest that you trust your first response and explore the exercise anyway. See if it pertains to your situation and feels right.
This is the intuitive way to determine which exercise is best for you right now!

Suggestion: Early on in your journey with Snake, go through Open Your Heart and Make Friends to develop a truly co-operative relationship!

Navigate Contradiction

Intuitive Reading from the I Ching or Book of Change: Navigate Contradiction through MODERATION.

Rheanni Lightwater - Navigate Confusion
Rheanni Lightwater, Reiki Master Teacher & Feng Shui Consultant

In this intuitive reading, Soul Resources offers a variety of SOS formulas and Transformation Games using the Intuitive Learning Circles and the I Ching to help us navigate contradiction and get on the path to a better world based on the Common Good. 

The I Ching

I Ching Workbook - R. L. WingThe 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.

Understanding the Larger Picture ~

When a roller coaster is being flung this way and that, it’s natural to grab onto something that you think will help to stabilize you. However, if you’re clinging to something that is itself unstable, you are actually making your situation worse, whether you’re aware of the mistake or not. It may seem, in the moment, that the larger the structure, the safer you’ll be and that encourages you to grip even harder. This is a classic survival response and completely understandable.

You may feel safer for a moment, yet once you’ve given over the weight of your body to a larger structure that is in DECLINE and falling down, the gravity and force of the fall is exponentially greater.

This is the reason that Kuan Yin encourages us to stay in the I Ching Flow of  MODERATION whenever possible.

Todays Intuitive Reading - Moderation

“The ancient Chinese text describes finding MODERATION as the best way to make progress amidst chaos. The suggestion is to disengage from confusing extremes or opinionated attitudes and instead, follow the guidance that comes from within. In almost any situation, if you are able to walk the middle road between extremes, there will be improvement in whatever you undertake.”

If you can pull back and come from a place of MODERATION, you might look at your situation from a more objective perspective and see the truly precarious situation that you’re in as a society.

Your levels of communication are an extreme example of how desperately people are clinging to the way things used to be. Structures of communication are falling down, tangled and filled with outages, glitches, hijacking of information – these are all signs of the general DECLINE that the old structures are going through.

This DECLINE is completely natural and cannot be stopped.

“Although DECLINE points to the beginning of a later flowering, the way you handle this current decrease in resources is of great importance. This decrease is in accordance with the forces in the cosmos and therefore perfectly natural and completely unavoidable… Accept the DECLINE and respond appropriately by simplifying your life.” – Hexagram #41 DECLINE, The I Ching Workbook, R.L. Wing

The text goes on to warn against extreme communications in particular:

“There may be less meaningful communication… and a frustrating lack of information. Don’t become angry or provocative… Instead, gear the relationship down to a simpler form more appropriate to the time of DECLINE.”  ~ Hexagram #41 DECLINE, The I Ching Workbook, R.L. Wing

The Chinese Zodiac 

The Year of the Yin Water Rabbit is approaching and officially starts on January 22nd, 2023.

Rabbit

The beneficial qualities of the Rabbit are said to be: Docile. Fertile. Tender. Quiet. Gentle. Cautious. Considerate. Her fertility and connection with women’s health is legendary, although whether you consider that beneficial or not is entirely up to you!

Her more challenging qualities are liable to be: Irresolute. Skittish. Stubborn. Timid. Escapist.  Plus, the rabbit is considered by many to be a trickster, although her tricks are more likely to be along the lines of prank and small irritations, rather than serious deceptions.

With these generalities in mind, what do you gather you need to do differently to prepare for and work with this energy? What is the message from this Archetypal Animal? Are there any warnings? Opportunities?
Is there something specific I could ask about that would be beneficial?
What would you need to do to make friends with her?

So,  that’s a lot of changes to adjust to.

To help you get a grasp on the larger picture, you may want to know about other important environmental changes before you continue with the game…

The I Ching: Navigate CONTRADICTION.

To navigate the CONTRADICTIONS ahead effectively will demand discipline, determination and courage.

“Business or social strategies may appear ineffective, as they are neutralized by equal but opposing forces. Ambitious goals must wait for a more supportive atmosphere. Your best course of action now is to affirm friendly relations. Avoid being drawn into any questionable schemes. Do not make a grab for position.”

Keep a steady eye on the activities you’re about to engage in. You don’t want to make a bad situation worse by being careless or indulgent. Making a careful and comprehensive examination regarding your decisions will yield the best results. Then, because you’ve consciously weeded out wishful thinking and ungrounded idealism, your actions will take on greater meaning.

“There is an estrangement present between elements that naturally belong together. Do not try to reunify the situation with force… If something inferior is being forced upon you, a cold shoulder will work wonders.” – Hexagram #38 CONTRADICTION, The I Ching Workbook, R.L. Wing

Are You Communicating Moderation?

Communicating With Moderation In the New Paradigm.

Transformation Games - Extremism and Cult BehaviorKuan Yin has been helping us to transition out of the old status quo into a new paradigm based on equity, co-operation and sustainable prosperity. Her advice about communicating through moderation springs from the I Ching, an ancient book of divination that follows the flow of the cosmos. Because of that, her insight comes from a different perspective than ours.

Kuan Yin’s Transformation Games 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 her words. Your intuition will come forward and give you the help that you seek.


First – Evaluate Your Situation for the Danger Signs of Shock ~

Communicating through Moderation
Are you reliving an old traumatic event? Are you experiencing one now?

Let’s face it. The past few years have been filled with one extreme and jarring piece of news after another. Shock is something that we deal with every day. It’s important to give yourself and others a break by realizing that you might be stuck in a survival pattern because you’ve been listening to so many shocking communications.

If you are overwhelmed by how someone is communicating, it’s very likely that you’re experiencing SHOCK from some past or present form of DANGER.

If you’ve been triggered by a traumatic event from the past, go to Healing Emotional Shock before going through this game.

If you’ve living through a shocking and traumatic event that’s happening right now, go to Resolving Shock from Traumatic Events first.

Once you’ve cleared up your experience of shock, this game will be much more effective for you.

Welcome to the I Ching Reading and Transformation Game for: Hexagram #29 Danger and #15 – Moderation

“In times of difficulty and danger, it’s usually best to move with the flow of MODERATION, Hexagram #15, where ‘The predominant forces … are in the process of balancing extremes and harmonizing interests.’

The second changing line from Hexagram #29 DANGER indicates that ‘The DANGER is great and cannot be surmounted with one single action…’ ~ The I Ching Workbook, R.L. Wing

Following the flow of MODERATION as the best way to make progress amidst great difficulty. The suggestion is to disengage from confusing extremes or opinionated attitudes and instead, follow the guidance that comes from within so that balance can be re-established. In almost any situation, if you are able to travel on the middle road between extremes, there will be improvement in whatever you undertake.”

Communicating Through Moderation Puts You In a Different Flow of Energy ~

As a general rule, MODERATION is the most sensible flow to follow, especially since so much karma is playing out in the wake of environmental, political and social change. Contradictory mindsets have been fully activated and must be dealt with in one way or the other.

Just to clarify what we mean by karma here –
Karma = Cause & Effect
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.

Most people are navigating through one or another of these general karmic patterns:

  1. Getting sucked into a negative malaise of mental, emotional, physical or spiritual decline.
  2. Stuck in a gridlock of hatred or rebellious refusal to change.
  3. Getting scattered or revisiting survival patterns from the past, or
  4. Pulling themselves together into a centered position of empowered authority.

Initial Evaluation: As you softly gaze at this Circle, see which of these patterns you are currently experiencing. Ask yourself:

“Am I generally experiencing pattern #1, 2, 3 or 4?”

It could easily be a mix, depending on your mindset and what stage of the karma you’re living through.

Continue to relax into yourself for a moment or two while you contemplate the answer you get.

Regardless of what’s happening, you can make your life easier by letting go of old patterns, agreements or communication karma that’s ready to be transmuted. This game will help you do that.

 


Mind Body Integration

Mind Body IntegrationFor best results, look at each symbol both crossed over the midline of the body and uncrossed so that the correction is more complete.

Feel free to move at any time in any way to help you embody your experience!


Let’s Begin By Calming the Stress in Your Nervous System.

Your nervous system and your ability to communicate are intricately interrelated. Use this Circle for homeostasis to gently collect information about your nervous system and what will help to calm you down.

“I calm down and relax into the rhythm of my Soul.”

Take another few minutes to breathe deeply with the intention of coming back into rhythm with your Soul. Listen to your heartbeat and slow down. Let all that external noise from the outside move out.

If you’ve been in traffic, shopping at the super market or watching television, know that your nervous system takes all that in – and often doesn’t know what to do with it.

It would probably help for you to move around, stretch – or make circular movements until you feel your tension releasing. Take all the time you need with this.

 

Restore your sense of Self with this Circle. Gaze at it softly and remember an activity that you’ve always liked – probably something creative that brings you joy. Relax into it or keep moving if you like.

Does a particular color come to mind?

If you can make it stronger, that’s the color that resonates with your Soul!

Soulful, creative activities help you to get back into your Center and being in your Center is a big help to communicating with moderation.

“I know who I am and I know what’s important to me.

I am learning to communicate through the energy of my Soul.”

If you like to sing, tone or hum, this would be a good time to enjoy them.

 

We have been going through an intense period of unstable and conflicting energies and you may be having quite a reaction to all the CHANGING that continues to play out. Bring your body back into balance by consciously breathing in on the count of three and slowly exhaling on the count of five. It’s helpful if you can breathe in through your nose.
Do that three or four times while you gaze softly at this Reiki Chakra Key that stabilizes the sacrum.

Release your attachment to extremism and cult behavior.
Continue breathing and bring your awareness to your tailbone.
What communication do you need to get in balance about?

 

Let Go of Harmful Karmic Agreements.

Now that you know what you really need to communicate about, Use this Soul Contract Circle to help you release social, familial or religious contracts that are harmful or would pull you out of integrity with your Soul.

Gaze softly at the Circle and imagine you can send a cleansing violet flame up and down your spine while you use the affirmations: 

“I release any agreement that says I’m powerless about what I communicate or how my Soul wants me to do it.”
“I free myself of other people’s expectations. What my Soul wants to communicate is important.”


“I communicate my needs and priorities clearly and calmly.”
“I am communicating with care, compassion and _____________.”

 

Don’t Forget to Let Go of Your Old Agreements with the Status Quo.

Status Quo of the Old ParadigmThe old paradigm was a system built on extreme greed and exploitation enforced through oppressive social, religious and moral contracts. Most of us are still operating out of them to one degree the other because they’ve been wired into how we go about doing our business.

It would be wise to release our agreements with that system and set up new agreements in the New Paradigm that are generative and life affirming. Especially agreements about how we communicate. This won’t just happen on its own. We need to be proactive and intentional if we want to move out of extreme communications and behavior.

“I uproot my agreements to stay stuck in or comply with harmful communication patterns from the status quo.” 

“I release agreements to communicate through manipulations of the old status quo.” 
(shame, blame, inequity, deceit, greed, prejudice, intimidation, hatred, contradictions, dishonesty, co-dependence, etc.)

Release agreements with extremism and cult behavior.

“I decide to reorganize my communications around simple principles of co-operation, equity and sustainable prosperity.”

Let Go of Agreements to Communicate Through Stagnant Yin Energy.

The flow of Water goes down and follows the path of least resistance. When it accumulates, it can easily get stuck and stagnate.

STAGNANT YIN ENERGY

Whenever this happens, communication becomes far more easily misconstrued, diverted, ambiguous, distorted and wishy-washy. This “stuck” condition relates to current social tendencies such as apathy, resistance, self-pity and laziness. Think about the difference between how sound travels under Water and how it travels through the Air. Underwater, sounds are slow moving and muffled. You would be wise to release your agreements to utilize this very stagnant energy flow.

“I release all agreements to be attracted to or utilize Stagnant Yin Energy to heal or process emotions.”

Utilize pure Water to process the emotional aspects of communication.

Instead, make a conscious choice to activate a new relationship with the Element of Water – fresh and purified to gently clear emotions, imbalances and muddy, murky communications.

This affirmation will help you make an actual adjustment in how you relate to and utilize this precious resource:

“I now make a conscious decision to use pure, life affirming Water to process my emotions for communicating MODERATION.”

 

Release Your Agreements to Get Pulled Back into the Past.

We need to be able to find new ways to communicate that aren’t just reruns of what has happened before.

“I release my agreements with contradictory, pushy behaviors
that pull me into chaos, violence or no-win situations.”

Extremism and Cult Behavior

“I choose to communicate in a positive way with the calm, generative flow of MODERATION and Divine Protection.”

 

Invoke Protection and Clarity of Mind:

“I close down all harmful energy channels from the old paradigm.”

“I connect with the center of this symbol to calibrate how I communicate through the new generative life force of the Aquarian Age (Air).”

 

Let Go of Intentions That You Don’t Need Anymore.

Check your old intentions with family, friends or business relationships that interfere with your ability to communicate more effectively. Release dishonest or extreme forms of communication like coercion, intimidation or hypocrisy. Think about old jobs or organizations you’ve been involved with – religious institutions, political agendas, educational systems, ways of doing business, etc. You don’t have to hold them up or support them anymore!

“I let go of out-dated or harmful intentions about ___________.”

“I let go of harmful intentions that other people may want me to fulfill.”

To replace them, consider carefully what new intentions would actually serve you now. Do they need to be clarified, simplified or re-organized? What do you need to have happen for yourself? “I need to ____________.”

 

Decide to Stop People Pleasing.

The desire to fit in at any cost is one of the most fundamental ways we do harm to ourselves. This desire can often be so extreme, we put ourselves at risk by leaving ourselves wide open to unscrupulous people who are willing to exploit us.

“I decide to respect and have faith in myself. My worth does not come from my family or other people’s opinions of me.”

“I decide to follow the middle road, based on inner guidance and self-worth.”

“I decide to __________ while I’m communicating with moderation.”

 

Stop Taking On Other People’s Karma.

In times of increased confusion and chaos, it’s common for people who want to avoid responsibility to systemically dump their problems and karma onto whoever will accept the blame.

If you’ve been trained to feel anxious when other people are unhappy, you might trap yourself by taking on more than your own karma. You can clarify this with the next Circle by asking these questions:

“What is my karma in this situation? What am I actually responsible for? How can I set things right in a way that’s actually helpful?”

“I let go of my karma to mistake other people’s karma for mine.
I am clear about what karma is mine and what karma belongs to others.
I let go of the temptation to repeat unpreferred karmic patterns.”

“I utilize my own karma to manifest _______________.”

 

When we try to handle other peoples karma for them, we are inadvertently complicating things by preventing things from working themselves out naturally.

To help you avoid this trap and set things right, use this symbol with the affirmations to release attachments to survival patterns from the past:

“I let go of attachments and obligations.”
“I detach from fearful, sticky or toxic energies.”

Like a healing balm, imagine that a loving coat of peace and comfort is pouring down over you!

 

You can also get some help smoothing out CONTRADICTIONS and other jarring energies with this Key:

“I remove reversals and jagged energies.”

“I have a clear and direct connection with my Soul,
my resources and my own karma.”

 

Get centered and reorient yourself appropriately. These positive affirmations will help:

“I am inside of me. Everything else is outside of me.”

“I am centered and aware of where I am.”

 

Dissolve the Blueprints of Harmful and Extreme Communications.

Use this symbol to identify any mental, emotional or spiritual patterns that are keeping you attached, pulling you back or holding you down. See them dissolve completely as you surrender them to the Light:

“I dissolve any miscommunications, misunderstandings, dogmatic assumptions or mistaken ideas that obscure clear communication.”

Dissolve Patterns of Extremism and Cult Behavior

“I let go of my angst and co-dependence and surrender them to the Light.
I dissolve my survival patterns and any connection I have ever had to them.”

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!

 

Relax and Take Your Time with These DNA Symbols.

“I gently take my self destructive tendencies apart and make a connection with my deepest, wisest Self.”

 

“I let go of harsh, judgmental communications …  

… and now focus on solutions that are respectful to all.” 

 

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

 

Allow the Auras Around Your Body to Repair and Refocus ~

“I refocus and repair my auras.”

“My auric field is strong and organized to protect my health and integrity.”

 

To finish, it’s important to completely close the door on all that suffering and miscommunications…

Close the door on holes or pathways that lead back to poor or extreme communications. Take all the time you need. There are probably a lot of them.

“All holes are sealed and healed.”
“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”

Close the door on extremism and cult behaviors

“I let go. I stop communicating through abuse, manipulation, cruelty or violence.”

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

 

Congratulations for Communicating with MODERATION on the Middle Road! You probably feel much more balance. Go back to the Initial Evaluation for the game and see what’s changed.

Now that you’ve made choices about the flow of moderation you can bring order and new happiness into your environment!

Escape Critical Mass

For many people, following MODERATION and the middle road signifies an opportunity to go within and expel deep patterns of fanaticism within their psyche so that they can evolve and arise from that pattern, much as a beautiful lotus arises from the muck and mire at the bottom of a pond.”

Navigate Decline Through Wisdom

Intuitive Reading from the I Ching or Book of Change – Navigate DECLINE.

Rheanni Lightwater - Resources for Liberation
Rheanni Lightwater, Reiki Master Teacher & Feng Shui Consultant

In this intuitive reading, Soul Resources offers a variety of SOS formulas and Transformation Games using the Intuitive Learning Circles and the I Ching to help us navigate DECLINE using wisdom and moderation. 

The I Ching

I Ching Workbook - R. L. WingThe 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.

The Chinese Zodiac 

Its the Chinese Year of the Black Yang Water Tiger.

2022 Year of the Tiger - Navigate Decline through StrengthThe Chinese Zodiac animal that has dominated the energy of 2022 is the ferocious TIGER. There is no ignoring the arrogance, sudden changes and contradictory behaviors that he’s so well known for.

If we’re not careful, he threatens to pull us into a whirlpool of resentments and past conflicts, clawing away at each other with no end in sight!

The Tiger comes around every twelve years and his more positive qualities are: Confident, Courageous, Steadfast and Strong. What might we do to call upon that kind of energy instead?

The Tarot Major Arcana Card for 2022 –

VI: The Lovers Suggest a Potential for Unity ~

In numerology, the year 2022 breaks down to the number 6.  2 +2 +2 = 6. The Number VI Card of the Tarot is THE LOVERS representing unity, consciousness and purification.

Perhaps we can tap into the positive aspects of this archetype and utilize it to create more harmonious relationships.

Exploring the I Ching Energy 

Ever 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. 

Todays Intuitive Reading

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 navigate DECLINE, which is the general trend in the Universe. *Caution! Her advice, as always, is direct and to the point!

The Availability of Life Force is in a General Trend of DECLINE – Hexagram #41. The original text states:

“The pendulum swings once again, this time moving into a general DECLINE. Although the DECLINE points to the beginning of a later flowering, the way you handle this current decrease in resources is of great importance. This decrease is in accordance with the forces in the cosmos and therefore perfectly natural and completely unavoidable. You will ultimately benefit, however, from any sacrifices you must now make.

Accept the DECLINE and respond appropriately by simplifying your life. A sincere and simplified approach to life will prevent you from making serious mistakes and will improve your sense of timing. If you find the DECLINE unacceptable and continue the pretense of more opulent times you will fall into error and out of touch with reality.

Simplicity at this time is genuinely good for your inner development. You must now alter certain attitudes by curbing your instincts and passionate drives. Even in your innermost Self you must economize in accordance with the current DECLINE of the life force. If you normally function with a great deal of tension, it is time to modify your behavior. Become conscious of any extravagant emotional reactions. By sacrificing any indulgences that occur at the instinct level, you can now benefit the higher aspects of your nature.”  ~ Hexagram #41 DECLINE, The I Ching Workbook by R. L. Wing

Navigate Decline Through Strength ~

“Since the arrival of the Aquarian Age (Air), and the decline in Piscean energies (Water), your bodies and psyches have been challenged to adjust to the transition. Human beings have no template for what’s happening, therefore, there’s much confusion and running around in circles.

When there’s a general DECLINE in available life force flowing through the Tao like this, it’s best to stop spending your energy and resources on no win situations or other wasteful, time-consuming projects. The time is ideal for letting go of mistaken ideas or other dilemmas that have been haunting you.

When What You’re Doing Isn’t Working, Stop and Find Another Way ~

The Element of Air - Todays Intuitive ReadingThe best way to approach any dilemma at any time is to find a completely new way of handling yourself. If you’re willing to lift your thinking up and out of the swamp you’ve been collectively stuck in, new solutions and answers to what ails you can emerge from the lighter, quicker energy channels that are available.

The new energy of Air (Aquarius) is the perfect medium for new thoughts, concepts and ideas to make their way into the collective.

The biggest obstacles seem to be:

  •  stubborn attachments to revenge,
  •  unreasonable expectations about wanting everything, whenever you want them without reasonable limitations, and
  • cynical refusal to cooperate with eachother for the common good.

These obstacles are buried deep within your collective psyches. The times are indeed difficult. Yet, if you are willing to be helped and have an open attitude, opportunities will begin to present themselves.”

Advice for Difficult Beginnings ~

Access good advice and helpful underlying principles for these difficult times from Kuan Yin. Reviewing her suggestions here will assist you if you’re particularly confused or if whatever you’re working on is just not working.

3. Resolve Shock and Confusion.

5. Be Open to Changing with the Changes.

In Hexagram #49 CHANGING, the ancient text states: “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. Stay open to the possibilities with this Transformation Game.

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 agreement with STAGNANT ENERGY FLOW

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, equity, sustainable 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 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
