Adapting to Success – Move Beyond Limitations
Are You Having Trouble Adapting to Success Because of Old Conditioning from Your Past?
You might be able to clear limitations faster and simpler than you think!
Kuan Yin has been helping us through these Transformation Games to transition from the old paradigm based on greed and fear to a New Paradigm of co-operation, equality and balanced prosperity. This game “Adapting to Success” springs from the I Ching, an ancient book of divination that follows the flow of the cosmos. Because of that, her advice and instruction comes from a different perspective than ours.
Kuan Yin’s 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.
Mind Body Integration
For best results, look at each Circle 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!
Welcome to the I Ching Reading and Transformation Game for Hexagram # 17: Adapting to Success
“If you sincerely insist upon the very best, the chances are that you will get it. Set your sights high. Good fortune.” ~ The I Ching Workbook, R.L. Wing
Experiences from your past or family of origin have shaped your imagination and fostered limiting beliefs about what is possible.
If you look around you right now, you may realize that most everything you see has been influenced by the tastes and tendencies that began in your childhood.
In your adult life, you will need to expand your imagination to find a new way to create the happiness you desire.
Check In: Are You Tuning Into the Kind of Emotional Energy That Will Take You Where You Really Want to Go?
Sometimes people have been conditioned so deeply to be afraid or negative, they aren’t really sure what to do when things are going well. The way you view yourself and what you think you’re capable of is colored by habitual behaviors learned in early love relationships as well as childhood experiences. You may simply be dealing with an old program or you could be struggling with more serious entanglements with hatred and other destructive tendencies.
Regardless of how it came to be, there is a simple way to change the emotional energy you’re tapping into using these Intuitive Learning Circles with your imagination!
Step One: Adapting to Success Begins with Awareness
Think about how things were communicated to you when you were little. Use this symbol to help you tap into the problem so that you can clear it out. Ask yourself:
“Is there a pattern of unhappiness or dysfunction that’s coming to the surface for me now? If so, is it related to family, society, career, religious upbringing or an old relationship?
The fact that it’s coming up could mean that you’re ready to ADAPT to a healthier mindset and REFORM how you’re doing things. Is that the case here? If you’re not ready, are you willing to respect your healing process and step back?
Step Two: Examine Fixated Thoughts and Beliefs
Childhood memories can often bring up a lot of confusing and conflicting information. That’s important because what you believe about life, you awaken around you. Let this symbol for clearing out shock and fixations help you sort things out a little. Relax and gaze softly at the symbol while you breath deeply both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body. Once the energy around the symbol calms down, you will find that you’ve calmed down as well!
Step Three: Slow Down and Clarify What Success Means For You Now
Even if you aren’t ready to clear the energy, you may be able to use your awareness in some other way to benefit you. For example, do you need to protect yourself in some way? Do you need a boost of self-confidence? Would it be good to take a few breaths and slow down? Would some movement be helpful? Gaze at the Circle from Tree Sloth with soft eyes and ask yourself:
“What does adapting to success mean to me in this situation?”
Notice how you’re reacting to that question, then continue your inquiry.
“What’s really important here? What will help me?
Am I just getting sucked into an old habit?”
Make notes. Your responses are important.
Step Four: Access Your Inner Wisdom
Empower yourself to follow your own advice. Let this Circle for Old Sol help you come up with the very best scenario that you can imagine.
“What is the very best thing I could ask for?”
Step Five: Recalibrate Your Energy for Empowerment
Let this symbol help you connect deeply with your heart center. While you contemplate it, affirm that you exist and that your spirit can empower your highest good.
Step Six: Clarify What Would Genuinely Be Helpful
In the New Paradigm, we are coming to the realization that many things we used to think of as “helpful” actually were not or would not be now. Use Mermaid Medicine to help you sort through any watery emotional confusion about what is actually needed. Ask this question for more clarification:
“How can I genuinely be of service to myself and others in this situation?”
Step Seven: Activate Your Heart Center
Tune into the wisdom of your heart. It will let you know whether you’re on track or not. When you’re ready, write down your intention or request, stated in the affirmative, in present tense and in your own words. Keep it simple and easy to remember…
Take all the time you need to really let those words resonate with your heart center.
Keep playing with it until it feels right and aligned.
Step Eight: Detach and Heal Old Patterns from the Past
Give yourself a moment to imagine a loving coat of peace and comfort is pouring down over you. This medicine is like a healing balm that melts away attachments to the past and mends all wounds.
Be sure to imagine that both crossed and uncrossed.
Step Nine: Raise Your Energy
Use the lighter, quicker generative life force of the New Paradigm to help you process your emotions and bring your request into being.
“I close down heavy, harmful energy channels from the Status Quo.”
“I am open and clear to utilize generative life force.”
“I adapt to the positive flow of chi’ available in the New Paradigm
to the best of my ability.”
“I connect to the new, life affirming channels of communication.”
Step Ten: Seal Energy Drains
Make sure your physical energy isn’t getting drained or that you aren’t getting sucked into a toxic habit or pattern from the past. Leave behind harmful habits and energy drains:
“I deconstruct old habits and close down toxic energy drains.”
“I shut them down completely.”
Once they’re closed down, use Fly to find where the voids are and fill them with loving, life affirming energy!
“I fill in the leftover void with healthy, life affirming energy.”
Note: If you’re a Reiki practitioner, this is a great time to beam Distant Healing into the Circle!
Step Eleven: Balance Your Perception
Relax some more and consciously bring your senses into balance. You don’t have to keep going back to any old, uncomfortable places any more. You are in the here and now.
Affirm to yourself:
“My senses are balanced.”
“My emotions are calm.”
“I’m perceiving my intention clearly, accurately and honestly.”
Then, imagine your intention as you requested it. See it, hear it, taste it, smell it and feel it as specifically as you can.
Step Twelve:
If you’re having trouble imagining anything or your mind is going blank, you have probably accessed an inner conflict. Gaze softly at this Circle, relax and let the lines get all wavey.
“I release all the conflicts I have around this.”
Continue to breathe while you gently release the conflict(s). Once the energy calms down, you will either know what you want or know what to do to help you get there.
What is the best thing to do next?
For example, you could go back to Step Four* and ask the question again until your request becomes clear or you could Retrain Your Mind To Go for Joy.
Congratulations! You now know what the pattern is and how you would like it to change. This is an important first step in the process of ADAPTING to success.”
If you are a Level Three student, there are several other steps you could take that would really improve how you handle success and empower your transition to the New Paradigm.

Adapting to Success should not be considered as an exclusive method of treatment. The appropriate medical or psychotherapeutic authorities should be consulted for the diagnosis and treatment if there is any medical or psychological condition.

Retrain Your Mind To Go For Joy
Why does joy elude us? Because the mind is busy going for other things. Like “winning,” being “right,” “desirable” or “perfect.”
Yet, when you retrain your mind to go for “joy” rather than “perfection,” amazing things start to happen…
For a lot of us, a tremendous amount of our energy has been focused on externally sourced goals. We try so hard to win, to look good, to escape punishment or to be “right.” Sadly, many of us are taught that we’re supposed to be perfect, so that’s what we’ve trained the mind to go for.
But what does “perfection” mean? Whose definition of being perfect are we using? Our parents? Mom? Dad? Our boss? Our family? Religion? The media? All of these definitions are externally sourced and full of contradictions.
More often than not, “perfection” simply means doing what somebody else wants us to do. No wonder so many of us are spinning around, chasing after a hundred different things! Going for perfection usually creates pressure, confusion and an overwhelmed mind!
0n the other hand, going for joy usually creates more joy – which connects us with our true creative spark, which seems as though it would be much better. You can use Hummingbird Medicine to help your mind tune into the energetics of Joy:
If you would like to experiment with this idea, go through Retrain Your Mind to Go for Joy and see what happens to your mood and point of view!
Welcome to Intuitive Learning in the New Paradigm – Mind Exercises to Retrain Your Mind to Go for Joy Rather than “Perfection.”
~ with Rheanni Lightwater, CHT, CKP
The Intuitive Learning Circles are a great tool to help you retrain your mind to successfully move away from the internal conflict that comes from having to be perfect. This short exercise will get you started. I’ve put it together to help you discover a way to refocus on internally sourced goals that are joyful and genuinely meaningful for you! All you have to do is relax and gaze softly at the Circles while you gently contemplate the affirmations or questions that go with them. Here’s an example:
“I reclaim and balance my five senses.”
“I fine tune them to be present and aware of my Soul and its purpose.”
“I use them to become aware of interference, obstacles and false ideas about perfection.”
“I am motivated to focus on beneficial solutions, opportunities and joy.”
An important note about Mind Body Integration ~
The brain and body communicate through different channels when a part of you is crossed over the center of your body. As you go through the steps, cross and uncross a hand or foot over the midline of your body when you gaze at each Circle. Use a soft focus and breathe patiently. This will help you integrate your thinking more fully so that you can be more creative. If you have any negative self-talk, let it go by breathing through it.
Feel free to move at anytime in any way to help you embody your experience!
Changes in the flow of your environment may cause the energy in your subtle energy field to start running in reverse or shut down entirely.
Take a few breaths and let this symbol help you make corrections. Relax and sense your overall energy. If it feels jagged or disjointed, stay with the Key until the energy smooths out and you can begin to feel the energy of your Soul coming through. Affirm this intention both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body:
“I repair the glitches, holes and blockages in my energy system.”
Please note: You may need to do this several times during the course of this exercise…
Okay, so let’s begin to retrain your mind…
Step One: In your current situation, who or what is defining “perfection” for you?
Perhaps it’s the media or something you learned at home or in school.
Wherever it came from, does that definition create joy for you? Is it creating more balanced prosperity? What about freedom or equality? Does it help you to find Common Ground with others?
So, what are you actually asking your mind to accomplish?
Step Two: How much of your energy have you been sending to this definition?
If it were a percentage, what might it be?
10%? 20%? 50% or more?
Would you like to send that energy to create more joy in this situation instead?
Step Three: Imagine you can retrain your mind to reorganize itself around “joy,” rather than “perfection.”
Place the word “Joy,” in the center, open space of the Circle and soften your gaze. Relax. While you’re doing this, the Circle may seem to rotate, spin or even change colors. If that happens – go with it. Release control of the experience and let your thoughts re-arrange themselves. Your new goal may turn into images, experiences, colors, sounds or movements. Let it happen! You will know that the process is complete when the energy subsides.
Try the same with “Balanced Prosperity,” “Freedom” and “Equality”.
You can get up and move around if you like. Take all the time that you need so you can align with the inner guidance system of your Soul!
Step Four: Think about your situation again and bring your senses into balance by focusing on the center open space of this Circle.
Ask your heart: “What do I really want to accomplish?”
Step Five: Take a moment to clarify your intention through your Third Eye Chakra. Focus inwardly on what’s most important for you.
Remember to keep breathing!
Step Six: Clear the energy in your Heart Chakra so you can connect your ideas about Joy with the true creative spark of your life force.
From there, connect with your other intentions for balanced prosperity, etc.
Keep directing the energy to the center open space of the Circle. Doing so will help you bring your true intentions more fully into the center of your life!
Step Seven: How might you approach your life situation differently now? What action can you take that will help you know you’re going for joy?
How is it different when you go for balanced prosperity, freedom and equality?
Step Eight: Confirm that you’re ready to move on rather than fall back into old mindsets about “perfection”.
Is there anything that you need to do to keep you from returning to past patterns that are harmful to you?
Step Ten: Clear destructive patterns out of your mind. Use this symbol for dissolving destructive blueprints to gather up all your connections to those old mindsets and send them to the Light.
“I dissolve the destructive mental and emotional blueprints from my mind.
All harmful patterns and my connections to them are transmuted by the Light.”
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!
Step Eleven: Now that you’ve cleared out the perfectionism, close the door on all that past suffering to complete the process.
“I close the door on all that confusion.”
“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”
It’s time to take a break and give your mind less to have to think about.
Congratulations! Going for joy rather than perfection is a central concept of the Intuitive Learning Circles that will help you to live and prosper in the New Paradigm of Common Ground based on co-operation, equality and balanced prosperity.

Creating Internal Safety
Learn How You Can Tap Into Your Second Chakra for Creating Internal Safety in Your Environment ~
The 2nd Chakra Is Deeply Connected with how well we Nurture and protect ourselves.
Your 2nd chakra is located approximately 2-3 inches directly down from your navel.
It’s the energy plexus where emotions, digestion and immunity all come together. When it gets out of balance or entangled with toxic pollutants, your physical, emotional and spiritual health can be impacted in very negative ways.
Gaze softly at the Reiki Chakra Key below to help you balance and gather up physiological information that will organize your space in a way that will promote your health and safety.
The environment in your second chakra is very important to your self-care and emotional healing. When it’s balanced and healthy, it transmits a vibrant orange energy that is hopeful and attracts belonging and support. It’s also your creative center, the place where you generate your personal mana or creative energy. If it becomes stagnant, goes into shock or gets caught up in emotional entanglements, your physical, emotional and spiritual health suffers. In today’s environment, that’s something many of us are experiencing. This simple feng shui exercise is designed to help you go within and come up with important resources for staying healthy.
When you’re ready, pull out a piece of paper and something to write with so you can make notes as we go along…
Creating Internal Safety is based on SOS Mind Exercise #8: Setting Up a Safe Space
In Creating Internal Safety, you’ll be utilizing your intuitive insight to implement very simple changes that can make a world of difference in how you’re creating stability and safety in your personal space. You’ll discover that your intuition and unconscious mind are much more aware of whats going on than you realize!
Go through this mind exercise by reading each step and then gazing softly at the Circle that goes with it to gain insight about what creative changes you can make in your internal and/or external environment that will help you.
Step One: The goal of Creating Internal Safety is for you to get clarity about how well your personal space is supporting you and what you can do to make improvements. You might get insights about your body or your external environment. After all, they are connected and this is an important time to become aware of them.
First, take some time to slow down while you gaze softly at the Circle. Breathe in and out several times. Drop your shoulders. Relax your jaw.
Move around and stretch if you need to.
Once you’re feeling relaxed, bring to mind the space that you’re inquiring about. Imagine that it’s moving in slow motion.
Step Two: Next, shift your attention to your own body, imagine you can see the space within your Second Chakra (remember, that’s located about 2″ below your navel).
Zoom in, like a camera. See or sense it moving in slow motion.
What do you notice? Go ahead and make notes about what you sense.
Step Three: In response to sudden challenges we’ve experienced in our environment, let’s use one of our Soul Star Keys to repair any damage due to pollutants, smoke, viral or destructive energies, which could cause reversals, allergic reactions, addictions, deformations, reversals and misdirections.
Let this symbol help you make corrections. Relax and sense your overall energy. If it feels jagged or disjointed, stay with the Key until your energy smooths out.
“I repair the glitches, holes and blockages in my chakra system.”
Do this both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body.
Step Four: Now that you’ve cleared your internal energy up a bit first, you can get a better awareness of your external environment.
Feeling safe is a major priority. Innocent happenings such as loud noises, flashing lights, repetitive motion or high frequencies can cause unpleasant reactions in you without your being consciously aware of them. Gaze at this Circle and ask for help so you can get more aware.
Gaze at this Soul Prayer Chart for Divine Grace and ask for help and advice.
Let’s start with very simple questions that we take one at a time…
Is there anything in your personal space or immediate environment that could be triggering an unsettling reaction in you? Is anything irritating?
- Is there a flashing light? Sudden movements?
- A sound? Are there disturbing frequencies?
- Are toxic influences present? Anything else?
Step Five: You could be preoccupied by other things that are causing you to be anxious. You may be reorganizing your work/living arrangements or in the middle of a move or repairs. Let this Circle help you relax and answer questions about how you need to nurture yourself now, under your current circumstances.
Is there any clutter or something to let go of that would help ease the situation? If so, what is it and where is it located? Does something need to be added?
Are you tapping into nurturing, beneficial energies? If not, take a few moments with this Circle to help you do that.
Is there anything else?
Step Six: Physical objects in your environment carry a lot of energy through them, especially if they have been gifted to you or are second hand pieces. These could be books, equipment, furniture, pictures and other objects of art. Are there any objects in your home or office that are having a sharp or negative effect on you? If so, can you identify them?
What would remedy the situation?
Does something need to be moved, rearranged, cleaned or removed completely? Can something be brought in that would remedy the situation?
When dealing with emotional challenges, it’s often a great help to rearrange or clean out certain areas of the home – and that includes cleaning crystals. Read more about that here…
Step Seven: Since our recent transition out of the Piscean Age of Water into the Aquarian Age of Air, a new, generative form of life energy (chi’) has become available for us to use. Take several moments now to meditate on this symbol for you and your environment. Do that as often as you need to.
These positive affirmations will help:
“I access Divine Protection and close down all harmful energy channels left over from the past.”
My mind is open and clear to receive generative life force in the New Paradigm.”
Step Eight: Now is a good time to check back in with your body. Take a minute and use this next Circle to tune into yourself: What emotion(s) are running through you? Does that throw you off balance?
Is that dynamic helpful or harmful to you?
Step Nine: If it’s harmful, you might be internalizing an emotional complex – a compulsion, attitude, obsession or phobia from the collective unconscious.
If that’s happening, go through this short sequence to let it go. First, release your agreement to carry it any longer.
Let the energetic structure for it collapse and then visualize expelling the negative thoughts and emotions up to the Light.
By the way, there could be more than one. Check both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body to get them all.
This symbol can help you clear any remaining toxins out of your second chakra. Focus in again on that area about 2″ down from your navel and repeat your visualization of sending the debris to the Light.
Continue until you feel quite clear.
Step Ten: Are there any other old habits that need to be deconstructed? If so, imagine taking them apart and then seal up any drains in your energy field before you move on.
Once they are closed down, use Fly Medicine to find where the voids are and fill them with loving, life affirming energy!
“I fill in the leftover void with healthy, life affirming energy.”
Step Eleven: Now you can turn your attention back to your external environment. Is there anything else about it that’s irritating you?
Identify it if you can. What will remedy the situation?
Do you need to pull your energy back from external situations and events?
Are you inadvertently tapping into harmful or distracting energies?
If so, use the Circle to pull your energy back and close off destructive energies.
Is there anything else about that?
Step Twelve: Is there anything that you could bring into your space that would help you be happier, more hopeful or more creative?
Would anything increase your good health, emotional stability or physical security?
Could anything be done to increase your experience of prosperity?
What might you add that would bring more beauty into your space?
What vision or experience would you like to project out into the world?
Is there anything else you need to know?
Step Thirteen: You can finish the game today by closing the doors that might keep you open to the suffering of the past and the old paradigm.
Remind yourself that your personal space belongs to you and how you take care of it has a profound effect on the rest of your life!
Congratulations! Thank yourself for taking the time to go through Creating Internal Safety – a gift that will make your life a whole lot better! Now is a good time to take a walk or go out into Nature to help this all integrate.

Developing Precognition
Could You Be Stepping Into Danger or Taking the Hit for Someone Else? Developing Precognition Will Help You to Stay Out of Trouble.
The Intuitive Learning Circles are great at developing precognition, bringing intuitive hits, hunches and other unconscious information up to the surface to be examined more closely. Especially if you have learning difficulties or your inner guidance is blocked for some reason. That’s why I’m sharing this Mind Exercise from Intuitive Learning in the New Paradigm. By playing, you’ll have the opportunity to engage your imagination and shed some light on potential situations where you might be better off staying out of the way!
If you’ve ever stepped into a compromising situation or gotten caught in the middle of a fight between people, you know what it feels like to suddenly find yourself caught in the middle of a “no-win” situation. It feels horrible! Especially for highly sensitive people, who often find themselves in the middle of highly charged, emotional conflicts.
“If only I knew beforehand or had some kind of “spidey sense” that there was going to be a problem, I wouldn’t have even shown up!”
But wait. That’s not really so far out of the realm of possibilities. It’s called developing precognition or as I like to say, listening to your intuitive hit.
Clearing the Way for Making Smart Decisions
Use Your Inner Guidance and Gut Instincts to Get Out of the Way and Learn How to Be in the Right Place at the Right Time.
You’ve probably had an experience of knowing that it just felt wrong to go to a certain place at a certain time. Then later, you find out that you were right. Something unfortunate happened in that very same place around that time! That’s your precognition at work and it’s a darn useful skill to have, especially now, when times are so unstable and chaotic.
In the old paradigm based on greed and elitism, it’s been commonplace for people to try to control things by invading other people’s space or interfering with important personal projects or relationships. This can happen on a physical level, but it can also happen on an emotional/mental level, which often causes emotional shock that sits frozen under the surface of our awareness. We have expressions for when these kinds of manipulations happen. “Get out of my space,” or “stop playing mind games with me,” are just a few. Unfortunately, when this happens, emotions can easily escalate out of control and our normal awareness of danger can get blocked!
Developing precognition through accurate intuition is one way to help you keep your mind on your own business and protect yourself from dangerous situations.
Preparations for Developing Precognition
Begin by activating your five senses so that your intuition can come forward and give you the help that you seek. You can use these affirmations:
“I reclaim and reconnect with my senses.”
“I clear them up so that I can accurately sense my environment.”
“I use them to sense what will keep me safe, productive and well.”
“I become aware if I’m intruding on other people’s business.”
“I can clearly sense what will help me to _______________.”
Next, gaze softly at this Circle to help you gently release any shock that might be under the surface for you. Imagine the lines are getting all wavy and loose.
Give yourself more help by making repairs to any chakras that might have been affected by all the chaotic energies in the environment.
“I smooth out any jagged energies, addictions, viruses, reversals or blockages in my field.”
Use this next Circle to help you develop precognition in your current situation by tapping into your unconscious mind. Gaze softly at this Circle and ask yourself:
“Is there a situation coming up where I need to get out of the way?”
“Is there a situation where someone is getting in my way or blocking what I need to do?”
Be patient and relax into your body. The Circle is helping you focus in on pertinent unconscious information. Your answer could come in the form of a feeling, an image, words or a combination of them all.
Let’s get some more information…
Sometimes we’re empathically picking up on someone else’s situation.
Could that be happening in this case?
If so, is there any shared karma? Have you let your protection down?
Do you need to pull your energy back and re-establish protection?
Is there an action you’re thinking about taking that isn’t in your best interests? Do you need increased awareness to take that action?
If the answer you get is “no”, count yourself lucky and keep up the good work staying out of trouble!
If the answer is “yes” or “maybe,” keep going with this exercise to find out more about what’s going on and what you can do about it.
Continue the Mind Exercise for Developing Precognition
1. Slow down and ask for more information about what’s really going on. Use your imagination and see the landscape of your mind slowing down too. Things may simply be moving too fast for you to get out of the way when trouble is about to happen.
2. When things are chaotic or moving too fast, it’s easy to get distracted and fall into scams, traps and deceptive mind games. Plus, people are more likely to be mixed up in situations where they really don’t belong. Use this Reiki Chakra Key to open your Third Eye to intuition and common sense. You can use these positive affirmations to help:
“I open my Third Eye and let it balance.
I use it to separate what’s true from what’s a distraction or all-out lie.”
Being in the Wrong Place at the Wrong Time
3. Remember the relationship or situation where you think there might be a problem. While you think about it, gaze at this Circle and ask your gut a couple of simple “yes” or “no” questions:
“What is the situation? Is there any danger in it?”
Once you find the situation, ask yourself:
“What is the danger here? Can I tell how I’m participating in the situation?
Is there an important reason why I’m participating or considering doing this? Is it worth it to put myself in this situation?”
“Am I placing my hopes into something that isn’t in my best interests?”
What does my inner guidance say about this?
4. Continue your self-inquiry:
“Would I be pulled off track or doing harm to myself? Would my projects be harmed? My loved ones? If so, what is the problem?”
It could be timing, placement, priorities, a belief, an agreement, a habit or something else…
Take your time to get as much information as you can.
5. Would being in this situation have a negative effect on your boundaries? Your prosperity? Your health or well-being? In what way?
6. Sometimes, how people see you can be a source of the problem. People often project what’s going on within themselves onto other people. Check in with this Circle to see if anything like that could be involved. Note – what’s being projected onto you could be either unflattering, flattering or both!
“In this situation, am I being projected on?”
So, now you have a lot more information to work with as you decide what to do!
7. What is the best thing to do in this case? If you need to move out of the way, see yourself doing that in your minds eye. If you need to let go or say “no”, see yourself doing that. Whatever message you get, see yourself taking your own advice.
“What do I need to do?”
Finish this part of Developing Precognition with these affirmations:
“I resolve to be in the right place at the right time for my highest good.”
“I stay out of trouble and follow through on my true priorities.”
“I close the doors on old habits, distractions or misconceptions.”
“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”

Navigate Your Karma
Navigate Your Karma: Understanding How the Root Cause is the Answer to Resolution ~ with Rheanni Lightwater
Your Root Chakra Is Deeply Connected to Personal and Collective Karma that Influences your Physical Conditions.
Your chakras are part of how you use your energy to manifest your goals and your root energy provides a foundation for your basic physiological and biological needs. This includes your needs for air, food (nourishment), water, shelter, warmth, sex, sleep and method(s) of communication. This exercise is designed to help you navigate your karma, especially around these basic needs by gently reprogramming your Root Chakra.
In these exercises, what is meant by “karma”?
Being human at this time and on this planet is your karma (as well as mine) and we share that karma collectively. In my experience, the most useful explanation of karma is simply the physical and spiritual law of cause and effect. “For every action, there is a reaction.” “What I put out comes back to me.”
Karma = thoughts, decisions and actions that you’ve followed through on.
Whenever you have a thought, decide to follow through on it and then take action, you have created karma. As far as the Cosmos is concerned, there is no judgement about it or suffering assigned to it, only consequences. In other words, for anything that’s put into motion, there will be some kind of effect.
Let’s use the example of your birth. Certain thoughts, decisions and actions your grandparents took caused them to create the circumstances for your parents to conceive you. Congratulations, you incarnated! Your karmic seeds for being a human have ripened, for better or for worse! That goes for me too, both good and bad, or as I like to put it – preferred and unpreferred.
There is always a mixture of preferred and unpreferred karma. It’s never all bad or all good. Even the terms “good” and “bad” are only relevant to your goals and point of view. You may say that your job situation is bad karma, yet to another person, having any job at all could be seen as good karma to them. The individual’s perspective makes all the difference.
Timing and circumstances are also important considerations. For example, you may see that new car as good karma today and tomorrow you get into a bad accident by driving too fast in it. Is it “good,” “bad,” a punishment? No, simply the natural consequences of actions you’ve taken. However, if you decide that it’s a punishment and then you act on that decision, you are technically creating the karma for “punishment.” The Cosmos is neutral, but you have condemned yourself.
Now, let’s say you decide to deny your responsibility for your part in that accident and continue to lie to yourself about it, a karmic pattern begins to form (or continues). Denial only plants the karmic seeds for more denial and lies which then leads to punishment, then more denial, which then creates more lies… and so it goes – on and on and on. In Buddhism, it’s called samsara – the cycle of suffering.
The Way Out – You Can Navigate Your Karma by Setting It Right.
Situations are neutral and more often than not, our unpreferred situations actually can help us to learn and propel us further on our spiritual journey.
Another more poignant example is our karma as it pertains to something collective, like the coronavirus. The overall atmosphere of the pandemic and its accompanying financial upheaval has undeniably been a group experience and therefore a clearcut example of collective cause and effect.
Yet the disruption provides valuable experience as it assists us in understanding why we need to deal with social injustice or climate change. We might also discover ways to create more preferred financial structures or ways to live and communicate more peacefully.
How can we navigate our karma as individuals in the midst of this collective karma?
There are many choices people made during the pandemic and subsequent consequences. Some people made a decision to ignore safety recommendations and follow through by going out without protection. “I went out. I got sick. I should have listened!” Some went out and had little or no immediately perceivable consequences. “I went out. I didn’t catch the virus. I’m all that.” Others might have done everything right and still have a terrible time. “I did everything right. I still got the virus. Why am being punished?”
The structures of the status quo tell us that we are “sinners” and that we need to be obedient to an angry, male god. However, the Cosmos is neutral. We are really our own judge and jury. Our perception and what ideas we buy into are the key factors for how we either resolve the karma or intensify it.
So here we all are, sitting in the middle of our collective karma. What’s the best thing to do? For me, the initial answer is to come clean with it. Accept my part in what’s happening and learn from it. Be open to more life-affirming thoughts and decisions and then take action on them.
Sounds simple, yet so very difficult. After all, there are those pesky consequences to consider!
Here’s what I do, and it seems to work pretty well. I offer it up for your consideration:
- I accept what’s happening and how I feel about it (personal responsibility).
- I become open to new thoughts about hope and forgiving myself.
- I gather my courage and awareness to make a new decision based on what I would now prefer to experience.
- I take action on steps 1, 2 and 3 with care and patient consideration.
If you find all this interesting and would like to explore it further, you’re invited to go this Mind Exercise using the Intuitive Learning Circles…
Navigate Your Karma by Taking Care of the Root Cause
Let’s begin by changing our agreements around punishment and being so very black and white, good and bad about everything. Your nervous system holds the energy of those agreements. To let go, start at the bottom of the line and the bottom of your spine. Imagine you can get to the root cause of the very first agreements you made about punishment. As you move up, you can imagine locks unlocking – each vertebrae is being freed from the chains of outdated, oppressive agreements. Go up all the way up to the top of your spine.
“I release my agreement with being a”bad” person. I forgive myself completely.”
“I let go of any agreements I have that karma is ‘bad’ or ‘good’.”
“I surrender other people’s decisions about what’s right or wrong.”
“I give up shame, blame and punishment.”
“I release the stress of all that judgement and let myself off the hook.”
“I decide that karma is neutral. It’s what I decide about it and do with it that matters.”
“I decide to accept what’s happening and learn more life-affirming ways of being, based on what’s needed now.”
“I decide that I’m safe and _____________.”
What other agreements would you like to change?
Consider a current experience you’re having that you would like to navigate differently. One experience might be your fears around astrological events such as Mercury in Retrograde. This regular occurrence is often collectively thought of as “bad” where negative experiences and breakdowns in communication happen more often.
Take a few minutes with this next Circle to turn down the volume and pay attention to how you’re perceiving your current situation.
Once you’ve calmed down, ask yourself:
What karmic experience is a concern to me right now? How am I perceiving the situation?
Is there any opportunity to perceive it differently?
What are my fears?
Am I present in my body?”
Note: You may want to go back and renegotiate some more agreements…
It’s important that you be fully present to make effective corrections.
Continue to relax and let your 3rd Chakra get connected, open and balanced at your solar plexus (the area where your ribs go up in the front).
Your Essential Self is the embodiment of your instinctual nature and the keeper of your personal energy. It’s most efficiently located in the 3rd Chakra to help you manifest, create happiness and maintain health.
In times when you’re experiencing unpreferred Karma, it’s pretty common for the Essential Self to go into a fight or flight response. It may get angry and resist or it could run away, go into hiding or even dissociate. Are you experiencing one of those responses now?
Remind your Essence that you have given up punishment, that it is safe and that you have completely forgiven yourself.
“I decide to stay present, in my body, even when I am afraid.”
Imagine that you can pull yourself back into your center. You can return from places where you are still stuck in fight or flight or “punishment.”
Next, decide to utilize life affirming ingredients to create more preferred life affirming experiences.
“I decide to utilize life affirming thoughts, words, decisions and actions to create my experience.”
“I decide that I will clear life destructive patterns of karma and set them right.”
“My actions are life affirming.”
Integrate Divine Protection into your Root Energy.
“I close down harmful energy channels.”
“My mind and body are open to receive generative life force.”
“I connect with life affirming communications.”
Now, turn your attention to your Root Chakra at the base of your pelvis to check out the energy there. It may feel stuck, detached, wobbly, reversed or clogged. If that’s the case, don’t worry! You can clear it through your intention and attention with the help of the next few Circles…
It helps to imagine the Root Chakra as a brilliant, red vibration swirling in a clockwise direction. Breathe deeply and let this Reiki Star raise your vibration there.
Feel free to move at any time in any way to embody your experience. Take all the time you need to do that.
Repair any damage or reversals in your Root Chakra.
Parts of your subtle energy system might be shut down entirely.
Allow this symbol help you make corrections. If your energy feels jagged or disjointed, stay with the Key until the energy smooths out.
“I repair the glitches, holes and blockages in my energy system.”
“All shut downs and reversals are gently corrected.”
If you need to, go back to the Red Reiki Star and raise your vibration some more. Continue until you can begin to feel the energy of your Soul coming through.
Make room for Joy
Visualize the energy of Joy being placed in the center of your Root Chakra.
Let a joyful, life affirming foundation replace the old, collective foundation of sin, punishment and burden!
This foundation is becoming a base for new preferred decisions and life affirming karmic flow.
Now meditate on the Earth Chakra located just below your feet.
Establish your personal healing connection with Mother Earth.
When you’re ready, visualize the energy of the Earth Chakra connecting with your Root Chakra. Let this connection bring strength, hope and positive grounding.
Note: You may need to return to the Root Chakra to strengthen your connection.
Clear a space for preferred karma to be planted within the Self.
Like clearing a field before planting, use this symbol to dissolve destructive mental and emotional patterns. Visualize letting go of all the punishment, guilt, shame and fight or flight responses you may be holding. See those karmic patterns like dark clouds that you can dissipate into sunlight and clear blue skies.
“I dissolve destructive patterns that interfere with my health and happiness
and send them to the Light to be purified.”
Notice how much more aware you are about how your health and happiness is deeply interconnected with the health and happiness of others.
Please note: Never send destructive energies into the Earth, she already has too much to handle now. Use the Earth for planting seeds of happiness and life – not death!
Take some time to close any pathways that lead back to punishment, suffering or other people’s karma.
All holes are sealed and healed.
I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”
“I’m learning to recognize how spirit guides me through events.
Finish by Checking Back Into How You’re Perceiving Your Situation.
Breathe and balance out your senses again. Once you’re ready, ask:
“What is the karmic experience I’m concerned about again?
How am I perceiving the situation now?
What are my fears?
Am I present in my body?”
Note: You may want to go back and renegotiate some more agreements…
Congratulations!
Now that you’ve opened up to more productive ways to navigate your karma, you have the opportunity to experience life in a whole, new way!
