Unearthing Emotional Conflict
A Transformation Game for Handling Emotional Conflict ~
Transformation Games help you to identify problems, navigate change and clarify what’s really important to you. Simply relax and gaze at the Intuitive Learning Circles while contemplating the accompanying positive affirmations that help you unearth emotional conflict using the I Ching and the Tarot.*
Relax and follow the directions… your intuition will come forward and give you the help that you seek!
Welcome to our Transformation Game about Hexagram #6 – Conflict
Sometimes the reason we’re experiencing emotional conflict is because we’re being dragged into unhealthy patterns from the past. These could be societal expectations, a family pattern or it could be an unhealthy, entangled relationship you have with your own self or another individual.
The I Ching says about CONFLICT:
“You may be facing a major disillusionment in your life as you begin to realize that what you believed to be a universal truth is only your subjective view of the situation. You will have to reconsider your premise more realistically. The need for an inner adjustment yielding a more harmonious outlook is indicated.” ~ Hexagram #6 CONFLICT, The I Ching Workbook, R. L Wing
Hexagram #52 MEDITATION has another caution about conflict, “If you attempt to force stillness upon restless desires you will only create inner conflict and resentment. This can be dangerous. Attempt internal composure through relaxation and MEDITATION.”
Quiz: Are You Experiencing Emotional Conflict?
To find out if either of these scenarios are happening for you, gaze softly at the Intuitive Learning Circle and ask yourself:
“Am I tangled up with someone else’s belief or desire?”
“Is an entanglement or misunderstanding threatening to pull me into an old mindset of greed and inequality?”
“Am I in danger of being dragged into an unhealthy trajectory that isn’t my Soul’s path?”
“Do I have a restless desire that’s coming to the surface at this time?”
If the answer you get is”no,” that’s great! Your Soul is in charge and you’re staying grounded in the New Paradigm of equality, personal responsibility and balanced prosperity!
However, if the answer you get is “yes,” “maybe,” or “sometimes,” you may be losing your footing, getting confused or even worse, weakening your connection with your Soul. What can you do?
You may feel a lot of conflict over this issue or you might even have experienced a recent shock that blocks your ability to perceive things clearly. Take several deep breaths and relax while you gaze softly at this Circle to release shock and inner conflict.
“I relax and allow any tense thoughts to melt away like an iceberg under the heat of the Sun.”
You can see that iceberg out there floating and the Sun is so bright that the iceberg starts to melt and you can see it breaking apart… until it’s completely melted away.
There could easily be more than one. See them all moving around and melting into different configurations until eventually, they disappear.
“I allow my energy to loosen up and let go until the tension is completely gone.”
Part I. Determine What’s Involved and How You Can Heal it.
1. Some Inner Conflicts Are Caused by Old Intentions that Need to be Released.
Living in the Aquarian Age is very different from the Piscean Age and you will have different priorities now. For example, sacrificing or taking on other people’s pain to heal it is no longer a viable pathway to healing. In the New Paradigm, you help to heal the world when you heal your Self.
If old intentions are not cleared out consciously, they can fester under the surface and interfere with what you really want to create. Help yourself now and prevent trouble later:
“I clear away unhealthy, outdated or compromising intentions.”
“I ask to become aware of intentions that are in CONFLICT with each other.”
Mind Body Integration
The Intuitive Learning Circles work best when you look at each symbol both crossed over the midline of the body and uncrossed so that the correction is more complete.
Why? Because the brain and the body communicate with each other through one set of channels when you are uncrossed and another set when you are crossed. If you can’t get the information one way, you might be able to get it in the other. The same goes for making corrections – we want whatever correction is needed to be made all of the time, not just some of the time.
2. Identify Delusions and Projections that Can Cause Emotional Conflict.
Take a few moments with this Circle to relax and contemplate your situation. How are you seeing your Self in it?
Whatever comes up, does it seem like an accurate reflection of what’s really happening? Ask yourself:
“Am I operating under a false idea that’s being projected onto me?”
“Am I being tempted by lies about who I am or what I really want?”
If you are, use this Circle to help you burst the bubble around whatever falsehood you’re dealing with. Note – There may be quite a few!
3. Identify Mistaken Ideas that Can Cause Emotional Conflict.
See if you can center yourself so you can find out exactly what’s causing problems for you right now. Gaze softly at the Circle below and imagine you’re looking at yourself objectively. Ask yourself these questions:
“What is the biggest challenge I’m facing right now?
What am I telling myself about it? Is that the truth?
“Am I sending energy to a mistaken idea or false premise that’s interfering with my truth or ability to succeed?”
4. Get Specifics About this Particular Emotional Conflict.
Ask yourself if your energy is actually tangled up with someone or a group of people around this issue. If so, can you tell who it is?
Are harmful or controlling thoughts being directed towards you?
Your Soul has a unique signature that identifies you. However, if you’ve been embroiled in a conflict for some time, you may actually have signatures of others obfuscating your Light and genuine intent.
As you gaze at this chart, can you see your own signature or is it unclear? Ask yourself:
“Are there any markings in my aura that are confusing me?”
If so, use this Soul Prayer Chart to help you clear away any false signatures – like erasing graffiti markings.
Are you giving yourself a hard time with your own thoughts or negative self-talk? If so, what is the nature of those thoughts?
If this was a book, what would it be called? Are you ready to be done with this story yet?
Is there an energy drain or harmful habit involved?
If so, close the drain down to the best of your ability.
Then, send loving, healing energy to where the drain was to seal it up completely.
Are you able to protect yourself and stay in control of your own space?
If not, release your agreement to hold space for others or their problems in your energy field.
“My space is my own and my Soul is in charge of it.”
“I allow others their own space.”
Is the conflict you’re concerned about affecting your health or safety? Is it affecting your ability to prosper?
If so, can you tell in what way?
5. Make a Decision to Detach From Harmful Influences.
If the answers you get are distressing to you, it’s time for your Soul to either: reclaim your personal authority and detach from the conflict. Or, RESOLVE your inner conflict so that your energy can stabilize and ground in the New Paradigm.
If you need to detach, choose aspects of your Essential Self from The Essential Human using the Medicine of Early Morning Storm. Ask for numbers between 1 and 42 that need to detach.
Note – Once you’ve detached, the conflict may still be there, but you’ll be relating to it differently.
Examples: Relax and use this suggested sequence of symbols and positive affirmations from The Essential Human to help you detach…
“I decide to detach from past resentments and the conflicts they create – in the past, now and in the future.”
“I let go of the confusion around this conflict. I now choose thoughts that support my freedom and happiness.”
“I stop focusing my mind on this conflict. I now turn my attention toward helpful and productive solutions.”
“I am able to let go of harmful influences from the past. I fully accept my ability to succeed in my true intentions for myself.”
6. Decide to Reconnect with your Soul.
“I decide that my Soul is now in charge. I let go of mistaken ideas, flattery, coercion, shame, blame, guilt and punishment.
I let go of the desire to take things personally or waste my energy on lies, no win situations or emotional conflicts.”
“I learn from past mistakes and they are forgiven.”
“I reclaim full connection with my Soul.”
“My Soul helps me detach from false, harmful influences and clears them away. I have full protection.”
“I follow the guidance and integrity of my Soul.”
7. Dissolve Destructive Mental and Emotional Patterns:
Imagine all those emotional conflicts and the ways you get caught up in them are like a huge storm cloud trying to surround and engulf you. This symbol for dissolving destructive blueprints will help your Soul clear the negative pattern. All you have to do is breathe and have the following intention as you gaze softly at the image:
“I surrender all the patterns of this emotional conflict and any ways that I attach to them. I send them to the Light with Compassion.”
“I release shame, blame, falsehood, entrapment, gullibility, guilt and ____________.”
Simply see the cloud ascending up to the Light until it has disappeared into it. Then, visualize yourself standing in the middle of your own personal garden, filled with beauty and brightly colored flowers.
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 or emotional conflict!
8. Say Good-bye to Old Pathways of Conflicts.
Before you go – close the doors to all that conflict so you don’t keep recycling finished business! Use these positive affirmations to help you:
“I seal and heal all pathways that lead back to conflicts, punishments and suffering.”
“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”
Part II: Reclaim Your Integrity and Sense of Inner Peace.
Confirm that You’re Utilizing Your Soul’s Unique Vibration.
Return to the clarity of your Soul and allow it to connect with your true Essence, especially in your solar plexus area.
To do that, gently look at the Chart and breathe deeply. Remember a time when you were very happy and had successfully manifested an important physical goal. Notice if a particular color or felt sense comes to mind. What color or felt sense will show you the way?
Relax into it and let it integrate into your solar plexus. See if you can make it stronger and more vibrant. If so, that is your Soul Color.
“I recognize my unique color vibration.”
“I utilize it to help me maintain my integrity and healthy boundaries.”
Return to Your Best Position.
Emotional conflict could cause trouble in your Third Chakra, located at the solar plexus (in the front where your ribs go up) where your Essential Self resides.
Built up emotional toxins can leave your Essence vulnerable to energetic attack, especially if you’ve been in the habit of taking on other people’s pain.
The Essential Self may even disassociate and move to some other location because it doesn’t feel safe.
Take a minute or so to handle this with kindness. Remember that when you heal yourself, you heal the world.
Gaze softly at the Soul Star Chakra Key for chakra healing so that your Essential Self can re-open the chakra, clear out the junk and get balance again. That way, your Essence (or Psyche) will feel safe to return and access its power effectively.
Use this Soul Star Chakra Key to help you clear out the gunk!
Make a Heart Centered Course Correction:
Imagine that your Soul is opening your Heart center and connecting with it. Feel the light within you getting stronger and allow your Soul to make the necessary changes. This is your garden. Your way. The way that your heart is guided to create – free of this emotional conflict.
“I allow the Light in my Heart to radiate out into the World.”
Connect the Hara Lines.
Whenever working with chakras, you may need to repair and strengthen hara lines for improved communication and healing. The hara lines are like tiny webs of light that connect the chakras throughout your body. Sometimes they’re broken or damaged because of trauma, illness, toxicity or sudden changes in the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight). These affirmations will help you:
“I repair and strengthen my hara lines.”
“My chakras are connecting with my Soul through a beautiful web of light.”
“I am inside of my body. Everything else is outside.”
“I reorganize my consciousness around inner peace and positive solutions.”
Repair and Refocus Your Auras.
At the end of any epigenetic clearing, your auras need to be refocused, repaired and strengthened. Ask your Soul and Guardian Angel to assist you in finding and healing the areas in need.
“I refocus and repair my auras.”
“My auric field is strong and organized to protect my health and spiritual autonomy.”
Let Yourself Get Grounded in the New Paradigm.
Finally, take a deep breath and place both feet on the ground. Feel the resonance in your body and energy field as you connect with the Earth.
“I relax and release discordant energies so that I can ground.”
Take note of where you feel this new awareness moving through your body. Allow yourself to enjoy it.
Congratulations!
Now is a good time to get out into nature. Go for a walk or do something you enjoy. The time you take for yourself now will help you move beyond emotional conflict and into fully embodied action.

Heartfelt Communication Using Your Intuition
Intuition is Learning to Listen with Your Heart
The goal of this exercise is to empower more confident, cooperative and heartfelt communication in the New Paradigm.
Heartfelt communication is something many people say they would like and wonder why it’s so difficult to achieve. In the best of times it happens naturally by opening your heart and listening to its promptings.
Unfortunately, when life takes a difficult turn or tragedy happens, as it has for many of us, the heart and throat centers can shut down, leading us to feel cut off and at a loss for words. Repeated trauma and other violations of the spirit take their toll. Perhaps it’s the shock of disappointment or the panic one feels when the world gets turned upside down.
Opening up again may take time and some extra encouragement, especially for introverted, shy or highly sensitive people. Yet, with a little help, your heart can heal and your throat can relax again.
By practicing heartfelt communication with yourself first, you strengthen your intuition, which is like having an inner guidance system. When you go one step further and act on your intuition, you can:
- Re-examine your relationship with yourself and the world
- Reclaim an inner peace that helps you remain objective
- Recalibrate your ability to express your truth
- Renew the connection between your throat and your heart.
- Resource new ways to nurture cooperation and appreciation
*If you often go blank or feel like you’re out of your body during conversations you may be dealing with unresolved shock or anxiety. If that happens during this exercise, or at any other time, you can go through Self-care Formula #1 Healing Emotional Shock to get grounded.
** If you’re having difficulty with boundaries, you may need to go through Mind Exercise #8 Developing Healthy Boundaries in conjunction with this exercise.
In the New Paradigm there are new channels of protection and communication that we can learn to utilize for our benefit.
The transition out of the Water based Piscean Age into the lighter, quicker energy of the Aquarian Age (Air) has contributed to quite a few challenges. Most people are experiencing including breakdowns in communication and a general atmosphere of instability.
As you go through the exercise, utilize the Divine Protection Chart to access the generative energy flow of the New Paradigm. Let it help you organize your communication and give it the lift and lightness needed to be successful.
By contemplating the symbol, you’ll be able to intentionally close down harmful channels and open up to the generative life force (chi) that is available through the Element of Air. Gaze softly at the symbol with these positive affirmations:
“Any stagnant, heavy or destructive energy flows from the past are closing down now – in my mind, my body and my communications.”
Integrating with this new channel will help us connect with each other in far more generative and life affirming ways.
“I am open to receiving generative life force through the Element of Air.”
“I pull together new lines of communication using the lighter, quicker energy of Air.”
Heartfelt Communication: A Mind Exercise using Animal Totems from the Intuitive Learning Circle method.
Many cultures claim that messages from the animal world inform and offer us guidance – a very special kind of “medicine.” The Intuitive Learning Circles use messages from animals and nature to facilitate your learning and access inner peace.
For example, Monkey Medicine is about calming angry or critical thoughts that are causing trouble in your communications and life. In today’s world, many conversations have no intention of creating any kind of common ground and are merely an opportunity to criticize or pick a fight. Monkey can warn you if you’re about to engage in a hostile or manipulative communication.
Gaze softly at Monkey’s Circle, and ask:
“Is there any real opportunity to make progress with this person or group?”
If the answer is “no,” you may need to go through this exercise just so you can say “no” effectively and still be as kind as possible.
If your answer is “yes, I can make progress here,” ask yourself honestly:
“Am I open to changing my perspective around this particular communication?”
If your answer is still “yes,” get out some paper and something to write with to make notes as you go through this exercise.
*For best results, place both feet on the ground and gaze gently at each Circle to receive your own message.
Let’s start by introducing you to the very first Intuitive Learning Circle from Gifts from the Rainforest.
Animal Spirits Medicine
- Animals are our partners in creating an abundant and peaceful life on our planet. By observing their behavior and the role they play in their environment, we can adapt to and make the most of the circumstances in our lives. This Intuitive Learning Circle helps us take ownership of how we use our energy to communicate. It also helps us to set things right by listening to the wisdom of our hearts.
Relax and breathe as you would in a state of meditation. Bring to mind the person or group you would like to improve your communications with. When you gaze gently at the Circle, you can tune in and receive your own answers to the question:
“What do I really want to communicate to this person or group?”
Take your time and write down what comes to you initially.
2. Because of the alarming amount of confusion and manipulative communications happening around us, we need to address the possibility that various aspects of your subtle energy system may be damaged by toxic attachments or karmic entanglements that would interfere with clear communication.
Use this Key to relax and meditate on for as long as you like. Like a healing balm, imagine that a loving coat of peace and comfort is pouring down over you.
“My energy system can effectively neutralize interfering energies and detach from them.”
“I easily let go of toxic attachments.”
3. In our current environment, it’s not uncommon for the chakras and/or meridians to start running in reverse or shut down entirely. Relax and let this symbol help you make corrections to problems including reversals, deformations and misdirections.
“I repair any glitches, holes or blockages in my energy system.”
Continue breathing until you begin to sense the calming energy of your Soul coming through.
Butterfly Medicine
4. It’s always helpful if you can tap into positive energy that will assist you. If you continue to relax with the medicine of Butterfly, you may be able to utilize beneficial energies from your environment to nourish a more successful and reciprocal outcome.
After all, what you put out comes back, so it’s worth it to take a few extra minutes to clarify what you really want to put out!
Once you’ve lightened up a bit, gently bring your attention back to who you’re communicating with, what you want to communicate and how you might do that more effectively.
Electric Eel Medicine
5. The message of Electric Eel is about being coherent and grounded in the way we’re communicating. Use this medicine to scan your body and energy. Pay attention to any areas that feel muddled, blank or void when it comes to communicating with this person or group. Once you feel the inconsistency, Electric Eel will help you clear up the confusion and fill in the blank with positive energy and purpose.
It can also help you change the polarity of your throat and heart chakras so that they can realign with each other.
Note: This would be a good time to scroll back to the symbol at the beginning for Divine Protection to close down old energy channels and integrate that new energy channel before you continue.
River Medicine
6. Now that you’ve done all that, River Medicine can help you settle into a clearer perception of what you can say honestly and without exaggeration. Use the Circle to bring your senses into balance like the volume control on a radio.
Not too high, not too low – just right!
Bringing them into balance will support clear intuition by helping you to remain calm and perceive your situation the way it really is.
Now you can be more objective. Adjust the volume on your proposed communication. Take time to consider what’s really needed.
Does the volume need to be turn up or down? Does it need repetition? Something else?
Of course, there’s what you’d like and what’s actually possible.
Create a positive affirmation to guide you:
“In this situation, my communications are _________ and __________.”
Divine Connection
7. The next step is to empower your ability to express your needs and create a clear intention that you can follow through on.
“I exist and am empowered through my heart and Soul.”
“I am empowered to take good care of myself and develop heartfelt communications that are life affirming, truthful and cooperative.”
“I am empowered to release harmful intentions or interference.”
“I’m able to express myself clearly and keep healthy boundaries.”
Continue by making your own affirmations that apply to your intention:
“I am empowered to _____________.”
Jaguar Medicine
8. An important part of this exercise is to improve your confidence. Bring in Jaguar Medicine to surround yourself with a sphere of protection made of Light, strength and determination.
Once you’ve visualized that both crossed and uncrossed, can you remember a time when you successfully communicated something similar, either through your words or your actions?
It was probably something you felt very confident about.
Take your time and remember what was important about it.
Is your current communication challenge also important to you? Do you care?
Why do you care? Why do you care about the person or group you’re communicating with now?
What is motivating you?
Is there something you’d like to change about that or add?
Hummingbird Medicine
9. Another reason to cultivate heartfelt communication is to increase your experience of joy, connection and positive service. Hummingbird is our guide for accessing harmony and joy. Use this medicine to help you remember more about your successful experience. What did you enjoy about it?
What was the most positive aspect?
Did you enjoy getting a positive response?
Would you enjoy getting a similar response with this communication?
Hummingbird also helps us distinguish the difference between cooperation and compromising one’s integrity. For example, people who enjoy being “nice” have problems with communications because that attitude often puts them in impossible positions. Another problem is trying to be everything to everyone.
Use the Circle to unwind yourself from agreements, attitudes or assumptions that cause problems in how you communicate.
Use these affirmations to help:
“I untangle myself from extremes, codependence and no win situations.”
“I am free to enjoy simple and cooperative communications.”
Soul Color
10. Whenever you’re very happy or have successfully manifested a goal, you’re naturally using your Soul’s unique vibration or color. Use this Soul Color chart to see if a particular color comes to mind for your successful communication. Relax for a minute or so to find it and strengthen your resonance with it.
“I recognize my Soul’s unique color vibration and strengthen it to enhance my confidence and communication.”
When you’re ready, ask what kind of message your Soul would like to give and receive in this case.
What would be your Soul’s purpose in having this communication?
Would you be happy with that message?
Take your time and sift through the pros and cons of your proposed communication. Continue to make notes.
Dissolving Destructive Blueprints
11. You’ve probably gathered up a lot of old mental, emotional or spiritual patterns that contributed to misguided, confusing or ineffective communication in the past. This would be a good time to let them go.
Use this symbol to help you find and Dissolve Destructive Blueprints. See them like dark clouds, dissipating into the pure light of the Sun.
“I dissolve destructive patterns for harmful communication
and any connection I have ever had to them.”
“I release any grief, loneliness, frustration, anxiety or __________
that would interfere with heartfelt communication.”
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!
Piranha Medicine
12. Piranha is about spiritual direction and protection. Use the Circle to close the doors to all the myriad pathways in your mind that would lead you back into dangerous, confusing or ineffective communications.
“I close the doors to any harmful, misleading or manipulative communications.”
“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”
Heart Chakra Key
Now it’s time to integrate your communication with the Heart Chakra Key. Bring your attention to your heart center and allow the energy there to gently connect and balance throughout your body. It might help to place your right hand on your heart center and your left hand on your throat center.
Soon, the energy of your heart will naturally shift and start radiating out, like a star!
Can you imagine incorporating kindness, compassion, caring, self-respect and respect for others into the essence of your communication? If so, you’re ready to refine your message.
If not, what do you think you need?
Make a note of what comes up so that you don’t forget.
Starlight Medicine
Starlight aligns our individual consciousness with Universal Truth to achieve clarity and order. This medicine integrates conscious awareness, compassionate action and alignment with “true north” – the direction of your spirit.
It also helps you get more present in your body. Imagine that you can bring your Soul’s energy into the center area of your heart and solar plexus.
Once you feel more present in your heart center, contemplate what you originally wrote down.
Is this really what you want to communicate?
Are you clear who you want to communicate this message to?
Do you think that this message, as it is, will evoke the response you’re really looking for?
Is there a more effective message to send?
Sky Medicine
Finish now with Sky Medicine and allow it to help confirm a joyful message that is heartfelt and you really want to communicate.
That way, your words are bound to have a more desirable impact.
“What I really want to say to ________ is ____________________________.”
Once you’ve got the main message, see if you can refine the details about who, what, how, when, where and why.
Congratulations!
You have taken the time to consider the true impact of your words and re-frame any confusion or negativity into more heartfelt communication. Be sure to take some time to relax. Take a walk and integrate what you’ve come up with.

How Well Are You Nourishing Yourself?
Evaluate How You’re Nourishing Yourself in the New Paradigm ~
Kuan Yin has been helping us through these I Ching Readings to transition from the old economic paradigm based on greed and fear to a new paradigm of co-operation and balanced prosperity. Today, her advice about NOURISHING comes 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.
To help you better connect with her assistance, she uses the Intuitive Learning Circles to communicate with you through meditation, positive affirmations and visualization. Here’s an example that could help you tune into how your nourishing yourself:
“I reclaim and balance my five senses.”
“I focus them to be aware of my own body and how I’m taking care of myself.”
“I gain clear awareness of what beneficial energies and actions could nourish me in present time.”
“I become aware of blockages and new ways to remedy them.”
MIND BODY INTEGRATION
For best results playing a Transformation Game, look at each Circle both crossed over the midline of the body and uncrossed so that the correction is more complete.
Kuan Yin’s I Ching Readings and Transformation Games can help you to identify problems, change your focus to positive solutions, ground yourself and get in the present. Simply relax and gaze at the Circles while contemplating Kuan Yins words. Your intuition will come forward and give you the help that you seek.
Welcome to the I Ching Reading and Transformation Game for: Hexagram # 27 – Nourishing
Did you know that your body knows a lot about what it needs and how well you’re nourishing yourself?
Part One: Physical and Emotional Nourishment
For example, your Second Chakra is deeply connected to your emotions, your digestion and immunity. It has a lot of information about how you’re NOURISHING yourself on these levels and what you might do to improve. However, during times of high stress or illness, communication can get blocked from your conscious awareness, making it hard to hear what your body is trying to tell you. Take a moment and relax with this Reiki Chakra Key for your Second Chakra to help you tune in and listen. Use the affirmations if they help or come up with one of your own.
“I allow free flowing, life affirming energy to nourish my Second Chakra.”
“I intend to get clear information about my health and how well I’m nourishing myself.”
There are several ways that the Second Chakra can get blocked. One is inappropriate nourishment. Perhaps you’re eating the wrong foods for you at this time or you could be taking in toxic elements from your environment, including pollution, chemicals, electro-magnetics, illness or other harmful energies.
See if this Circle can help you bring your awareness in to check for those energies. Yes or no, are you picking up:
Any foods that are causing problems?
A problem in the water you’re drinking?
Something in the air that you’re breathing?
Disturbing frequencies, electro-magnetics, chemicals, illness or
other harmful energies?
Make notes for yourself so that you don’t forget and can do some research.
You may need to clear your primary chakras of harmful electro-magnetic frequencies. If so, go here>
You may be having a problem because you’re not yet fully grounded in the New Paradigm based on Common Ground for the Common Good. Meditate gently on the template below to help yourself get acclimated and aligned with this new mindset. 
There might be some kind of karmic entanglement, an emotional conflict or outright danger in your environment. Could any of those issues be present for you right now?
Could you be trying to process somebody else’s emotions?
If so, ask yourself a few pertinent questions:
What would be the purpose in processing someone else’s emotions?
Is continuing to nourish yourself in this way a good idea?
How long has it been going on?
How much damage has been done?
Are you ready and willing to put a stop to it now?
Your Second Chakra could also get blocked if you’re over-indulging in something that’s generally good for you when taken in moderate amounts.
To better determine if something like that is happening with you, experiment with Sloth, one of our favorite Intuitive Learning Circles for slowing down and focusing on what’s really important. Use this medicine to focus in on how you are nourishing yourself.
“I slow down and turn my attention towards my basic needs.”
So, How Are You Currently Seeing Your Needs?
You can use Maslov’s Hierarchy of Needs as a model to help you assess your priorities. Are they in balance?
The triangle may be upside down, distorted or out of focus. The levels could be out of order or a level could be missing entirely. It might not even seem that it fits at all! Use the symbol to the upper right corner of the pyramid to help you set things right.
“I set things right so that how I nourish myself physically and emotionally actually fits my current needs.”
You may need to change some agreements about how you prioritize your needs. For example, you might have an unconscious agreement to sacrifice your health or wellbeing for others. Or, you may have a tendency to cut yourself off from genuinely helpful people and resources. Of course, you may choose to do that. However, it’s a different matter if you’re inadvertently harming yourself against your will! Visualize any agreements that contradict your highest good burning up in a beautiful violet flame.
“I release all agreements to revert back to the past or harmful ways of being.”
“I let go of martyrdom or sacrificing any part of my health or wellbeing.”
“I decide to connect with genuine help and find better ways to take care of myself.”
Make other new agreements that would be helpful to you now…
“It would benefit me to ______________.”
Please note: There have been a lot of changes in the general energy and in how we need to adapt to it. Old ways of functioning are passing out of existence and other, more beneficial ways need to be strengthened. This is a good time to release your agreements with those old ways as well…
“I release all agreements to nourish or support the patriarchal imprint of control, hatred, exploitation and inequality.”
“I decide to strengthen and nourish the Common Good based on Common Ground.”
“I close down harmful energy channels that drain my vitality, like no win situations, assumptions and diminishing returns.”
“My mind and body are open and clear to receive generative life force.”
“I release all agreements to source from or attach to the channel of fear, greed and revenge.”
“I now source from and integrate with Joy and Gratitude.”
Now that you’ve made those updates, you’re ready to continue…
Evaluate How You Are Nourishing Yourself.
Now that your priorities are clearer, you can get more accurate information about how to nourish yourself. If you follow the directions, you can get all kinds of answers that could really help out. All you have to do is relax and gaze softly at the center open space of this Circle while you ask yourself a few questions.
Use a scale of one to ten to evaluate what’s going on (one being lousy and ten being great!). Be sure to listen to your body and be receptive to the answers that come.
Use a scale of “One to Ten”:
“How am I nourishing myself nutritionally? Am I taking in too much of something? Is there something I’m not getting enough of? Is there something I need to put some LIMITATIONS on?
What about how I’m emotionally nourishing myself?
What about nourishing my spiritual connection?
Am I giving myself positive, helpful mental input?
How well am I taking care of my body’s needs for exercise, rest, fresh air?”
Use this Symbol to Consciously Bring in Your Soul’s Unique Energy Signature.
“I relax and align myself with the true signature and imprint of my Soul.”
“I clear away imprints that obscure who I really am, like old graffiti markings.”
“I recognize my true signature, just as I recognize my signature on a document.”
Continue Your Evaluation and Consciously Put Together a New Awareness.
Bring together the puzzle pieces that come directly from your Soul. For help, ask yourself:
“Am I missing anything? What could I really use?”
“What do I need to do to put this all together?”
“What is the best way to proceed?”
Keep crossing and uncrossing your arms or legs until some clear guidance comes. Also, make a note of it so that you don’t forget.
Complete Part One:
Energetically Clear Out Your 2nd Chakra.
Take all the time you need.
“I clear out any unwanted or harmful energies.”
“I give myself an energy boost!”
Connect with New, Life Affirming Channels of Communication.
Install this symbol like a sort of filter for the Second Chakra.
“I adapt to the generative flow of chi’ available
in the New Paradigm to the best of my ability.”
“I close down harmful energy channels from the past.”
“I connect to new, life affirming channels of communication.”
Congratulations! You’ve just set the stage to let go of harmful energies and emotions and begin moving in the direction of NOURISHING yourself appropriately. Be sure to take time to rest and integrate this process. Take a walk or get out into nature if you can!
In this first part, we’ve aimed to clear things up enough for you to get a general picture of how you’re nourishing yourself and what you need to do to improve your experience.
In the Part 2 we’re going to take a look at how some of your projects are nourishing you!

Resolving Shock and Confusion
This self-care formula from RESOLVE uses the Intuitive Learning Circle method for resolving shock.
Many people who are experiencing unresolved shock get confused or shut down and are unable to explain what’s happening to them. That’s because one of the main symptoms of being in shock is not being aware of being in shock.
Why is that? During a shock, the mind goes blank as a form of protection.
Resolving Shock can help if you’re experiencing any of these symptoms:
- Feeling stuck, immobilized, lost or helpless
- Unable to relax tension from a startle response
- Caught in a blank or confused state of mind
- Waking up at night worried, with obsessive thoughts
- Reliving painful experiences
- Alternately feeling trapped and shattered.
Note: If you are going through a serious physical disruption or environmental crisis, please go to Stabilize During a Shocking Event.
Any person involved in a traumatic event could experience disorientation, mental confusion or get lost in wishful thinking. They might fragment out of their body and then not remember what they did. These are all ways that the unconscious mind protects us during a traumatic event and that includes people who are witness to traumatic experiences in some way.
Contrary to popular opinion, having a shock response is not a sign of weakness or something to be ashamed of. It is a physiological event. Nevertheless, if the person doesn’t get a chance to get grounded in their body again – or if they’re not able to – serious problems may develop. Blocked energy and a constant state of fight or flight takes its toll over time. Statements like: “I can’t relax,” “I don’t know what to do,” “I feel disconnected” or “I just check out,” describe the experience of unresolved shock.
If any of the above seems like it may apply to you, go through this mind exercise to help you access your own innate healing abilities.
You can restore your wholeness and reunite with self-love. Simply follow the directions and see if you can free up some of the confusion and conflict that comes from shock.
Here’s an example of how it works.
Simply relax and gaze softly at the Circle while you contemplate each of these positive affirmations:
“I reclaim and balance my five senses.”
“I focus them to be present and aware of my body.”
“I use them to become aware of my environment and what’s important to me right now.”
“I focus on life affirming actions that benefit my well-being and happiness.”
Mind Body Integration
For best results, look at each symbol both crossed over the midline of the body and uncrossed so that the correction is more complete. The brain and body communicate through different channels when a part of you is crossed or uncrossed.
Use a soft focus and let yourself relax as much as possible. Don’t worry if the images move around or change in any way. That just means the Circles are working and that your mind and body are relaxing.
Be sure to go through the entire formula and at the end, give yourself time to rest and integrate.
Resolving Shock and Confusion
Step One:
Take several deep breaths and relax while you look at this Circle that releases shock and inner conflict.
Imagine you can use it to focus in on a conflict, a thought or a painful experience that’s blocking your way. If your mind is blank, relax into how “blank” it is. You may get a conscious image or message, or you may not.
Once you have a sense that your mind has found the blockage, sit back and take a couple more deep breaths. Imagine that the lines going into the center are relaxing and going soft, like cooked spaghetti noodles.
Or, you can visualize that the darkness or heaviness is like an iceberg and the Sun is melting it away with a beautiful beam of light. Stay relaxed with it until it’s completely gone.
Repeat the process with other blockages or conflicts that come up.
Step Two:
The next step for resolving shock is to bring your senses into balance so that you can see, feel and hear things without the distortion that often accompanies shock.
As you breathe deeply, let this Circle help you to adjust the volume and pitch of your senses to just the right level for you.
Soon you will be able to hear that calm, gentle voice inside that reminds you about what matters the most to you:
“I see things as they really are. My senses are balanced.”
“I can perceive clearly what matters the most.”
Step Three:
When a person is ready to pull themself out of a shocking event, their mind needs to have a safe idea of where to go.
This template for Common Ground will help you find a place to re-organize around that is aligned with your Soul, Nature and the Common Good.
If you gently meditate on this image you can begin to connect with a new environment that has room for equality, peaceful co-operation and balanced prosperity.
Step Four:
Relax with this symbol to connect with life affirming energy flow.
“I adapt to the positive flow of chi’ and protection available through the Element of Air to the best of my ability.”
“I close down harmful energy channels from the past.”
“I connect to helpful, life affirming channels of communication.”
Step Five:
It’s important that you pull your energy completely out of the past so you can get present and grounded again. Your well-being is important.
Use this Chart for the Earth Element to pull your roots out of old, stagnant, trapped or stuck places.
Once you’ve freed yourself, place both feet on the ground and your hands on each knee while you use these affirmations:
“I decide to get present and ground in Common Ground.”
“I am safe and the Earth supports me.”
Step Six:
If your gut feels tight or uncomfortable, use this Reiki Chakra Key for your solar plexus to help you relax and get back into balance there. Your solar plexus is that soft place in your belly where your ribs go up. Just take some nice breaths and feel it relax as you affirm to yourself:
“It’s safe. I feel safe and more relaxed with every breath.”
“I can reconnect with my resources again.”
Take your time and move around if you need to. Stay with it until you feel centered again.
Step Seven:
Take some more time and let your heart recover. This Key will help you to reconnect and balance your Heart Center so you can clear away any residual heaviness. Breathe deeply and be gentle.
“I take the time to reconnect with my heart.”
“I release any heaviness to the Light where it can be transformed.”
“I choose to reconnect with life and _________.”
Eventually, your Heart Center will be able to radiate out like a star.
“I integrate my true Self with a compassionate and radiant heart.”
Step Eight:
Sometimes a person who’s coming out of shock will have difficulty getting their bearings and feel a bit shaken or unstable. In case that’s happening with you, take a few minutes to consciously reorganize your awareness back into your body.
“I am at home in my center. I am inside my body.”
Close your hands into fists and then stretch them out wide several times. Wiggle your toes around. Move in whatever way helps you feel good and more present in your body.
Notice the time and where you are. These actions all help.
Step Nine:
Get back in touch with the familiar vibration of your Soul.
To do that, relax with this Circle. Remember a time when you were very happy or had successfully accomplished an important physical goal.
What color or felt sense relaxes you and feels good?
If you can increase the color to be stronger and more vibrant, you’ve found your Soul’s unique vibration. Now you can sync up with the Universe correctly, which puts you back in the flow.
Being in a balanced flow makes everything easier! Take a few minutes to relax and enjoy that feeling.
Step Ten:
Oftentimes, resolving shock and confusion requires a change in priorities. There may be certain intention or expectations that have contributed to your confusion.
Use this Circle to identify and remove old intentions that are no longer appropriate for you to hold or send energy to.
Imagine you can clear away any outdated intentions or societal motives that are harmful to your health, prosperity and happiness.
Now that they’re gone, what new intentions do you want to set or strengthen?
Step Eleven:
There may also be negative or outdated plans, blueprints and habitual patterns that are suddenly reversed. They may no longer be relevant or constructive and are now obstructing your way forward. You can use this symbol for dissolving destructive blueprints to help you identify them and dissolve whatever is confusing you.
Actively imagine that the negative patterns in your mind are like heavy clouds or a jumbled maze of fears, dead ends and nightmares.
Once you have the image, bring the pure light of the Sun in and dissolve the maze completely.
You’ll know that you’re done when you can see yourself standing in a beautiful open field with clear blue skies all around.
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 Twelve:
Be sure to include harmful karma that you may still be carrying.
Release any seeds of karma that could prolong or cause a recurrence of your suffering and send them to the Light.
Also, surrender any seeds that are not yours so they can return to wherever they belong and be healed!
“I surrender other people’s karma and take responsibility for my own.”
These steps are often overlooked when resolving shock, which causes a lot of repeat and unnecessary suffering.
Later, once the karma has been set right, consider planting new seeds for healthier and happier outcomes.
Step Thirteen:
When one door closes another can open, so be certain to seal and heal any holes, leaks or harmful pathways that may have come open in your energy field during this process. Open pathways can leave you vulnerable to danger by allowing harmful energies to pass back and forth between you and others.
As you gaze at the Circle, affirm that harmful leaks and open holes are closing up completely. See it happening in your mind’s eye.
“All holes are healed and sealed.”
“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”
Step Fourteen:
Finally, you’re in a place where you can successfully surround your Self with a sphere of courage, strength and protection. Shamans call this a “ring of fire”.
With it, you feel safer and more confident with every breath.
“I am surrounded and filled with strength, courage and determination.”
Give yourself permission to rest and restore your wholeness before you move on from this exercise. Then, in your own time and in your own way, you can gently return to conscious awareness.
Congratulations! Now is a good time to take a nice walk outside or do something completely different!
