You can improve your self confidence when you develop intuition. Confidence in yourself and in your own powers and abilities takes practice and requires a trust for your inner knowing, which is intuition.
Establish Personal Energy and Boundaries with Stingray Medicine
Self-care and Personal Growth through Gifts from the Rainforest
#13 Stingray Medicine – can detect and repel foreign energies that cause harm, conflict or confusion. Align your intentions with your energy to keep healthy boundaries.
Are you feeling victimized or under attack? If so, what would help?
Is there something you need to do to protect the integrity of your personal energy?
Healing Action: Access information about your personal space. Position yourself in relation to others correctly. Activate protection with a shamanic “Ring of Fire.”
Respecting the Stingray
The Stingray swiftly and surely repels its predators.
It is not malicious, yet it leaves no room for
error or indifference.
Those who are ignorant of its powerful presence
will promptly learn to be cautious and distance
themselves from his territory.
There are times on our spiritual journey when
nothing less than Stingray medicine is called for.
Separate yourself from error, ignorance,
doubt, and indifference in whatever form it takes.
There is no error in this.
Listen to Stingray when he says:
“Keep your eyes looking forward on all that is
good and true and repel the rest.”

Stingray Medicine
Stingray medicine is about protection and the importance of maintaining healthy boundaries if you want to live in wholeness and integrity. For example, if you’re a people pleaser, it may be that you’re so used to multiple energies hanging around that you don’t realize they’re not you! Regardless of why they’re there, it’s best to move them out of your field as soon as possible.
To solve your dilemma, return to the source of your true nature and connect with gratitude.
Ask yourself a few honest questions: Do you tend to take on other people’s energy in order to get along with them better? Do other people often take advantage of you? What would happen if you could say “no” without guilt or excuses? Do you feel pulled this way and that?
Examine your intentions and see if they line up with what’s actually happening. If you’re confused by what you see, that immediately explains why things have not been going the way you’ve wanted them to. Clear intentions get clear results.
Look into the middle of Stingray’s Circle and ask: “What is my intention?” Wait for a clear answer to come back. Then ask, “Is my energy matching up with that intention?”
If your intention is unclear, ask your heart, “How can I properly communicate what I want? Do I have my free will?”
To make a correction in your energy, keep affirming your intention in the present tense while gazing at the Circle. You may be guided to other Helpers or processes to shift your energy and ground firmly in your intention.
When you send a clear and unified message, there can be no confusion about what you intend to do. If someone is interfering with your intentions, visualize a Ring of Fire around you for protection and then suggest an alternate path for them to take.

Self-care and Personal Growth through Gifts from the Rainforest
#49 Old Sol – like the Sun, the Soul is ever present. When we allow Soul guidance and access the wisdom of our Higher Selves, we hold that same power of Light within.
What does your Soul want to communicate?
What guidance do you need?
Are you feeling disconnected? If so, what would help?
Healing Action: Breathe and open your heart. Calm, clear connection to our Higher Wisdom helps us access intuition and unconditional Love.
Old Sol
When we were children, there was a presence
that was with us always.
It knew who we were and what we came here to experience.
Some would call it the Soul.
As we grew up, we were taught about
losing and winning, bad and good, male and female.
Soon we forgot who we were and became “socialized” instead.
The mind became more and more important
and Soul faded further into the background.
Nevertheless, it is still there – just like the Sun,
emitting life, love, and joy
whether we can see it or not.
It is time to reclaim our connection with this inner knowing
and let it show us the way back to the garden.
Breathe deeply and listen to your heart.

Further Exploration into Soul Guidance from Old Sol:
Old Sol – The Sun
It’s time to get back in contact with your Soul. The ego has been telling you wild and complicated stories, complete with the good guys and the bad guys. This condition has prevented your freedom and kept you trapped in loneliness and isolation. Allow others to be close to you by dropping your defenses. You are not alone and you never have been. Unfortunately, the ego doesn’t understand the larger story about love and the decision about whether or not you want more of it in your life.
Learn to recognize the differences between the Soul and the small mind:
~ The critical ego doesn’t like to take chances; the heart and Soul thrive on them.
~ The critical ego idealizes the past; the heart and Soul live in the present.
~ The critical ego fears the future; the heart and Soul embrace it.
Gently meditate on Old Sol, open your heart and let love heal it. If you are confused, imagine you can bring your awareness and attention into the center, open space of the Circle. Once you have that focus, ask any question you like and allow the answer to come back through a clear channel between you and your Soul. When you really pay attention and make room for your Soul’s presence, you’ll quickly learn that you’re loved and accepted unconditionally.
This medicine can also alert you as to whether you’re being pushy, over active or running too hot. Ask: “What is really needed here?” Slow down and listen to what your Soul has to say.
Look past the superficial differences and conflicts in your life and get to the heart of who you really are, what you really want and how you want to be along your journey.
You are free to be yourself. This could be an excellent time to draw, paint or dance. The heart and Soul loves to express beauty through the creative arts. Open up and allow yourself this sweet experience!

#7 Snake Medicine announces transcendence and initiation into a new stage of life. By peeling away any “old skin”, we are able to move on freely.
Have you noticed a fundamental change in yourself or in a relationship that needs to be consciously attended to?
Is there some extreme behavior you have outgrown and need to let go of?
Healing Action: See yourself and your situation as they really are. Let go of old, negative habits. Shed old personalities and extreme behavior.
Snake Sheds its Skin
The snake renews itself periodically by shedding its skin,
revealing a new and more vibrant version of itself.
Like the snake, you have transcended
the limitations of who you thought you were.
Your appearance no longer suits you.
Peel away the mask that hides your beauty.
Honor the old.
Celebrate the new.

Further Exploration into Snake Medicine:
Snake Medicine
You have activated your spiritual will and are now moving toward a higher purpose for you and your world. You’re ready to go beyond the extreme “either/or” mentality and graduate to the “and” consciousness of balance and unity.
You’re beginning to understand that things are not either black or white, good or bad – swinging from one extreme to the other. They exist together in the vast continuum of all that exists between Heaven and Earth.
Let the dual aspects of Snake teach you how to strike a meaningful balance. She may advise you to expel extreme ideas that have been poisoning your hopes and dreams. She knows that ideas are like air – they are everywhere, traveling freely, belonging to no one. If you like an idea, apply it to your life and pass it on. If you don’t like it, just let it go.
With this new perspective, you may want to revisit lost hopes and see if you desire to incorporate them back into your life. The way to do this is to bring different levels of yourself into balance by addressing the following forms of extravagance and ignorance:
Complete unfinished business.
Clear up debts that you owe or are owed.
Speak up regarding issues that have been bothering you.
Be done with disloyalty towards your Soul’s purpose, such as petty dramas and ego games.
Come back into your power.
Doing these things will help you set yourself right with the natural flow of the Universe and give you new energy to accomplish your dreams. The critical mind may object, often very loudly, however you now recognize that the ego is not to be trusted when it comes to matters of integrity and/or personal power. These are significant blocks that have hindered inner transformation up until this point. If you ignore them, your energy will be drawn back into feeding negativity and fear.
If you are dealing with your shadow side and healing disloyalty, shed any lies that you may have been telling yourself. These lies come in the form of extremes, denial, jealousy, judgment or vengeance, which have created imbalance and illness within you.
Shamans often refer to this kind of healing as “uncrossing your path”, and the truth is, we always do it to ourselves, usually by following someone else’s path, rather than our own. Successfully making this transition into Unity and Love will expand the possibilities regarding where you can go.
See yourself and your situation as they really are. In that way you will rid yourself of indecision and move forward into your higher good.

Self-care and Personal Growth through Gifts from the Rainforest
#12 Rat energy warns us about the dangers of an untended, cluttered mind. When we cleanse our minds regularly, spiritual growth and happiness is affirmed.
Have you been physically, mentally, emotionally or spiritually polluted with some kind of garbage?
If so, what is your best response?
Healing Action: Clear the landscape of your mind regularly. Release mental and emotional garbage to the Light. Make it a space for blessings, rather than curses
The Hungry Rat
The rat feeds off of those things that have been discarded
and left to rot without thought.
When this condition is ignored,
dis-ease and pestilence is allowed to spread
throughout the entire community,
infecting even those on the periphery
who are innocent.
Do not leave your business unfinished
if you wish to be free of vermin.
Clean your house and learn from what has been wasted.
In that way, you may use your experiences to fuel
your spiritual growth and continued happiness.

Further Exploration into Rat Energy:
Rat medicine is about a necessary aspect of realizing inner peace. Disengage from negative mass consciousness with its messages of separation, inadequacy, paranoia, and fear. Imagine that the Circle can help you sweep them all up to the Light. Then, once your mind is clear, it’s much easier to align yourself with the mass consciousness of Love.
The personal ego supports the collective ego through denial and blocking energy, which allows toxic thoughts, emotions, attitudes and beliefs to flourish.
Rat Energy
When your mind starts racing and you’re too busy to stop and take a deep breath, you’re identifying with the herd mentality of the collective ego. Catch yourself before your ego runs away completely.
Stop to clear your mind by breathing deeply. You would do well to cleanse your inner landscape regularly, because there’s quite a bit of litter.
Ask Rat Energy about the current state of your mental and spiritual hygiene: “Are there any liars pulling at me? Am I leaving myself open to any untruths?”
If so, get quiet and close the doors on all that noise so you can get a better understanding of what’s happening.
If you have trouble meditating or being still, look at the Circle and tell yourself to stop focusing on what you’re trying to accomplish and relax. Let your mind calm down and notice how the body calms down as well.
Get peaceful and then send some of that peace out into the world. If you do this for yourself, activities and relationships will flow much easier.

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!
Rheanni Lightwater
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 equality, peaceful co-operation 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.

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
Memories from the past 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 gettingsucked into a toxic habit or pattern from the past.Close down 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.

Welcome to the I Ching Reading and Transformation Game for: Hexagram # 29 – Learning from Danger
“There are times when none of our efforts to solve a problem have been effective and the way out of DANGER is blocked. Often, all that you may do is wait. Yet, even when that is the case, there are still things that you can do to become more aware of yourself by learning from DANGER…
‘Frequent encounters with DANGER are a part of life. Beyond making you inwardly strong, familiarity with DANGER, like the near brush of death, can instill in you a profound awareness of the life force and the mysterious nature of the cosmos. Such heightened awareness can bring new meaning, determination and richness into your life.’ ~The I Ching Workbook, R.L Wing
Generally, the text from Hexagram #29 talks about DANGER that exists in your immediate environment. Responding correctly is really about Right Action – knowing when and how to take action with clarity of mind. Sometimes it’s best to take minimal action or do nothing at all. Awareness and keeping your wits about you are really the keys.”
Learning from Danger – A Transformation Game
This Game uses the Intuitive Learning Circles to help you gain a deeper understanding of the dangers facing you. You may know that something’s wrong and not be able to specify the details of what you need to be aware of. This game can help you identify it. Or, you may have awareness of the danger, but not know what to do about it. In addition, your desires could be leading you into danger time and time again and you’re not learning from it. You can use this game to explore what that’s about and see if there’s something you can do to transcend the habit.
Step One: Access Your Gut Instincts.
Simply relax and gaze softly at this Reiki Chakra Key to open and balance your Third Chakra located at your Solar Plexus (the soft area in the front where your ribs go up).
In times of danger, it’s not unusual for the chakra system to get pulled out of balance. Let this Soul Star Detachment Key help you clear your energy field of toxins. Relax and mend any energetic wounds that are associated with toxic materials such as smoke, chemicals, heavy energies or viruses.
Like a healing balm, imagine that a loving coat of peace and comfort is pouring down over you.
Step Two: Balance Your Senses.
When DANGER is present, It’s essential to see things as they really are. See if you can remedy any “blind spots” or confusion by gazing softly at this Reiki Chakra Key for the five senses, together with these positive affirmations:
“I reclaim and balance my five senses.”
“I use them to be present and make sense of my current conditions and environment.”
“They help me to clear blind spots and confusion.”
“I use them to be aware of DANGER and find helpful solutions.”
“I sense things as they are really happening.”
Note: You may want to go back up to the Chakra Key for Detachment to strengthen the clearing action.
Step Three: Connect with Your Instinctual Nature.
Tune into your psyche, your instincts and your connection to the natural world. Make a commitment to pay attention to signals from Nature and learn to respect the power of Mother Earth’s energies.
“I connect with my natural instincts, my timing and Soul resources.”
“I pay attention to my environment and allow it to inform me about elements of concern.”
Dragonfly Medicine
Step Four: Slow down.
Danger often comes from being in too much of a hurry and trying to push our way through. Sometimes, it’s the opposite – we’re not taking action when we know in our hearts that it’s in our best interest to do so!
Gaze softly at the Circle to help you slow down and unwind any confusion around what’s really important. Take several deep breaths. Keep inhaling and exhaling until you’ve relaxed and your mind has slowed down.
“I slow down and allow my true priorities to reveal themselves.”
Sloth Medicine
Step Five: Uncover Your Awareness of the Danger.
Gently contemplate this Circle that accesses your intuition and unconscious awareness of a danger you are facing now. Imagine that you can gather up that inner library of experience and see what kind of knowledge comes forward.
Take your time and let the information emerge. Ask yourself:
“What is the real danger about? Is something about to happen? Is there anything or anyone in my environment that is dangerous to me or others? If so, where are they and what affect are they having?”
Vulture Medicine
“How much harm is this situation causing for me and for others?”
“Are there any extreme or narcissistic behaviors that I need to be aware of?
Snake Medicine
“Am I returning to harmful energy patterns from the old paradigm that are interfering with my ability to handle this situation to my best ability?”
“Is anyone trying to exert control over me or my environment?”
Amazon Ant Medicine
“Is there some kind of negative influence hovering over one of my projects?”
“Am I allowing my emotional reactions to pull me out of balance?” “If so, how is that affecting me?” “Does that tendency put me in any DANGER?”
WATER – the Emotional Element
It can help to remember that emotions are merely energy in motion and they don’t belong to anyone. They just exist.
Whatever you decide about an emotion or group of emotions is what gives you agency over them. If you decide that you have authority over how you respond to emotions you also have power over your actions and the consequences of those actions.
If you decide that you are powerless over emotions, you are like a rudderless boat in a sea of chaos.
Six Six: Ask for Empowerment from Your Source.
Empower your ability to respond to emotional energy and the DANGER that may be present in an effective way.
Use Divine Connection from Soul Prayer Charts to tap into the personal power that comes from your Source.
“I exist and am empowered to control my actions for my protection and benefit.” “I come from a place of Gratitude and Joy, rather than fear or vengeance.”
Step Seven: See it Calmly and With Discernment.
First, let’s make a couple of corrections that will improve your awareness of your situation…
Is any part of you getting caught up in harmful power games? If so, breathe deeply and gaze at this DNA symbol from Kuan Yin. The more relaxed you are, the better these work. Use the positive affirmations to help:
“I let go of harmful manipulations and power ploys.”
“I decide to accept responsibility for my own decisions.”
If you’re having trouble seeing your way or understanding the DANGER, relax with this symbol.
“I cut through the smoke screen that blocks clear perception.”
Do you have a tendency to make things harder than they need to be? If so, imagine a wall of thorny tangles surrounding you and blocking you in.
Then, just imagine them dissolving or melting away..
Remember to relax and gaze at the symbol softly, both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body for best results. “I release thorny complications and conflicts.” “I stop trying to make things more complicated than they are.”
“I decide to allow simple solutions for my problems.” “I am open to and embrace simplicity.”
Imagine that you are surrounded with a soft blanket of protection.
“I receive a divine sense of safety from the Divine Masculine and Feminine In all aspects of my life.”
Imagine that a beautiful, golden DNA strand is connecting in with your heart, giving you strength and resilience. Keep relaxing with these affirmations:
“I ask the Divine Feminine and Masculine to assist me in times of fear and violence.”
“I hold the victory of Love in mind.”
Step Eight: Dissolve Destructive Blueprints.
Imagine that the symbol below can help you clear destructive patterns that may be blocking or threatening you. Lift them completely off of you and send them to the Light.
“I dissolve the dangerous imprints of ________ and any connection I have ever had to them. I clear my field of destructive habits and the mental / emotional patterns that cause them. I send them all to 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 Nine: Apply Clear Perception to What’s Happening Now.
The DANGER may be upsetting. Don’t get carried away (remember that viruses and other destructive energies feed off of strong emotions).
So, breathe with this Circle and let it help you adjust the volume and bring your senses back to a comfortable level. They could have bumped up too high, too loud or intense. If it helps, you can use these affirmations:
“I calm down and get back into balance. I connect with my common sense. I perceive things as they are.”
Step Ten: Adapt to the Changes In Your Environment.
This symbol provides an interface and filter to assist us in making the functional transition from the old paradigm of Water (Piscean Age) to the New Paradigm Air (Aquarian Age).
“I close down any harmful energies that I might still be open to. I have Divine Protection.”
Divine Protection
“I am open to receiving generative life force. I connect with new, improved
lines of communication. I am learning to apply this beneficial energy to my life.”
This would be a good time to take a break. Get some water. Walk around. Stretch. Let this integrate before you continue…
Step Eleven: Clarify the Right Action(s) to Take.
Use this Circle to help you identify possible solutions that you can honestly take upon yourself without placing yourself in further, unnecessary danger. Explore different scenarios until you find a response that makes sense.
“What is an action I could take that would be genuinely helpful to me?”
Seed Medicine
“Is there something in particular that I need to refrain from?”
“Is there something else I need to learn from danger in this situation?”
Wasp Medicine
“What else do I need to nourish myself appropriately?”
Butterfly Medicine
Make a note of the suggestions that come. Times of danger can be filled with distractions that make it easy to forget.
‘Am I centered and putting out the kind of intention that will bring the results I really want?”
River Otter Medicine
If not, use this affirmation with the Circle and see if you can change it:
“I put out __________ in alignment with my highest good and __________ is returned to me.”
Step Twelve: Repair and Refocus Your Auras.
At the end of a game like this, it’s important to make sure that any holes or tears in your auras are repaired and refocused, especially when there are so many chaotic toxins floating around!
“My auras are sealed, repaired and refocused.” “The healing protection for my body is strengthened.”
Gaze at this chart both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body to make sure they are completely repaired.
Step Thirteen: To manage yourself well in dangerous times, be sure that you are grounded and centered in the New Paradigm.
Get your feet on the ground and connect with the positive energy of Mother Earth.
Step Fourteen: Close the Doors to Actions that Would Invite Further Danger.
Your unconscious mind knows what’s helpful and what’s harmful to your body, mind and spirit. It’s time to close the door on any harmful pathways that are still open in your mind. See them disappear, as if they were never there.
“All harmful pathways are sealed and healed.”
“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”
Congratulations on your newfound awareness about learning from danger!
“The time ofDANGER can be especially good for inner development. By holding to fixed and virtuous ethics, by maintaining your inner vision and ideals, all things fall into a steady, tangible perspective. You will know your relationships to your environment, and in this way you can accomplish your aims. Although subjective, this perspective is now in accord with the problems facing you.” ~The I Ching Workbook, R.L Wing

SOS Self-care Formula #6: Develop Healthy Boundaries
Many people, especially those who are highly sensitive or empathic, want to learn how to develop healthy boundaries because they are so open to thoughts and energies coming from other people. Sometimes those thoughts get attached in their minds and spin around, causing a great deal of discomfort.
If the pathways remain open, all kinds of trouble (karma, issues, illness or confusion) can pass back and forth between people without their awareness. If left unchecked, this type of attachment can manifest in negativity, sudden and mysterious illnesses, mental confusion, issues with prosperity or chronic states of overwhelm.
It’s a valuable skill to know how to shift your energy and Develop Healthy Boundaries.
Mind Exercise #8 from SOS for Compassion Fatigueuses affirmations and the Intuitive Learning Circles to help you learn to consciously close off the pathways to intruding or negative thoughts establish healthy protection and shift into a more positive mindset. Here’s an example of how it works. Simply contemplate each step for clarity and better boundaries.
Use Develop Healthy Boundaries when you are:
Agitated or feeling out of sync
Distressed by recent news
Getting negative or anticipating hardship
Feeling claustrophobic
Unable to meditate or sit still
Obsessed with a particular person or situation.
Remember that the Circles will take you as light or deep as you want to go. As a result, it may take you 45 – 60 minutes or more to get through this version completely. If you need a simpler, change of perspective you can go to Clear Boundaries for A Busy Mind instead.
If you’re in the right place, here’s how it works:Find a quiet place if possible, where you won’t be disturbed. Follow the sequence of symbols while you read their accompanying instructions. Gaze gently at each Circle for about two minutes. A longer or shorter time may be necessary.
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.
Let yourself breathe and 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 rest as needed during the exercise and at the end, give yourself time to get away completely to integrate. In the long run, it’ll be worth it. Developing a quiet mind and light heart changes your perspective and makes it easier to follow through with your true priorities.
Developing a quiet mind and light heart changes your perspective and that makes it easier to follow through with your true priorities.
Step 1. Balance
Begin by consciously breathing in on the count of three and slowly exhaling on the count of five. It’s helpful if you can breathe in through your nose. Do that three or four times while you gaze softly at the Circle.
Continue breathing and bring your awareness to your tailbone.
What do you need to get in balance about?
Step 2: Decision
In order to develop healthy boundaries in this situation, there are decisions that you need to benefit you. Be clear about what you actually want for yourself and how you’d like to respond. Use the Circle to help you synchronize the decision making parts of your mind.
Note: Negative or wishy-washy requests get negative, wishy-washy results. Overly idealistic, ambitious or unrealistic requests tend to create chaos and overwhelm.
Think it through and write down a positive declaration for yourself.
What results do you actually want to experience?
Step 3. Letting Go
Your decision might bring up conflicts or you may have experienced a recent shock that’s blocking your ability to move forward. Use this Circle to relax and melt away any hard thoughts, feelings or resistance that blocks your ability to take affirmative action.
The key is to relax into whatever you’re experiencing and breathe. You can imagine that the lines in the Circle are going limp and moving around like wet noodles.
What tension or worry do you need to let go of?
Let go of inner conflicts like holding onto self-doubt or lacking self-respect, etc.
Step 4. Protection
This symbol encourages you to develop healthy boundaries by providing an improved interface with your environment. We all need assistance in making the transition from the old paradigm of Water (Piscean Age) to the new paradigm of Air (Aquarian Age). Relax and close down all heavy or destructive energy channels that your mind or body may be open and vulnerable to.
Do you feel a sense of protection?
Continue to contemplate the symbol both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body until you feel protection all around.
Imagine the lines coming together in the center for improved communication.
Step 5. Natural Instincts
Continue to relax. Use this Circle to gather up your natural gifts, talents and instincts so you can organize them in a way that will help you reclaim and strengthen your boundaries.
Make sure you’re relaxed and you’ve got your feet on the ground to help you get back in touch with the things that really matter. Activate your gut instincts, engage your Essence and the power that comes from your Soul.
What will help you connect with your instincts?
Step 6. Intention
Give yourself permission to slow down even more so you can effectively concentrate your energy on your new decision. Turn your awareness to what would really need to happen in order for you to follow through successfully.
For example, you’ll want to know if you’re distracted, internalizing something or trying to take care of something that isn’t yours to be concerned with.
What is the necessary information I need from my unconscious mind?
Don’t worry. You don’t need to have it all figured out. The issue may be too confusing to make sense of it yet. Just let the Circle help you percolate what’s involved with this boundary issue.
Step 7. Soul Color
You may be taking on unknown algorithm or vibration without being aware of it. Using your own Soul Color and vibration will strengthen your autonomy, integrity and good health. To help you find it, remember a time when you successfully manifested something physical. What color comes to mind?
“I recognize my Soul’s unique color vibration.” “I know who I am. I distinguish my energy from the energy of others.”
“All aspects of my Essence are willing to utilize my Soul Color for clarity and success.”
Step 8. Centering
Connect your new decision with the strength and integrity of your Soul. Bring in your Soul Color and conscious awareness to amplify this affirmation:
“I decide to connect with the truth of my Soul and take care of myself.”
When you’re ready, notice where you are in your room or environment. What is to the left of you and what is to the right of you?
Make sure that you’re centered in your own body. “I am inside of me. Everything else is outside.”
Step 9. Empowerment
Empower your ability to follow through with your decision.
“I exist and am empowered to the Source in my heart center.” “I nourish myself with courage, confidence and wisdom.” “I am empowered to take good care of myself and develop healthy boundaries.” “I am empowered to maintain my confidence, courage and Individual sense of self-respect, self worth, etc.”
Continue by making your own affirmations that apply to your decision: “I am empowered to _____________.”
Step 10. Calm
Now it’s time to clear out all that excess or negative energy.
Keep breathing with your belly soft and relaxed. Let your shoulders drop. Continue using your Soul Color with this Chart to expel excess energy from your nervous system. Slow down and clear away noise, clutter and static.
Come back into the calm and rhythm of your Soul.
What thoughts help to relax you?
Step 11. Repair
If you’re having trouble, this Correction Key can help you correct any blockages, rough static, glitches or reversals that might be causing trouble in your energy field.
Relax with it for a few minutes until things smooth out.
Be sure to do that both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body until you feel the energy of your Soul beginning to come through.
Is there anything else you need to do to repair your energy field?
Step 12. Perception
It helps to see things the way they really are.
Gaze softly at this Circle and imagine you can adjust the feelings or thoughts that are turned up too high or too low, just like the volume on a radio.
“I decide to perceive this situation clearly and calmly.”
What are you seeing differently about this situation?
Step 13. Change
In order to follow through with your new healthy boundaries, some things are going to have to change. Identify what needs to happen:
“Does something need to change?” “What do I need to do differently to develop healthy boundaries?” “What actions would help me?”
If you’re not clear yet, keep going with the exercise.
You may need a few more easy corrections before the truth emerges.
Step 14. Resolution
You probably need to change some agreements or do some things differently. To help you find out what they are, examine what causes anxiety or confusion for you when you consider these affirmations:
“I decide to stay centered and follow through on the highest good.” “My health and happiness are important.” “I easily deflect foreign energies and other people’s thoughts or expectations.”
There is always more than one way to approach a situation. What new approach do you need to take? What agreements need to change?
Step 15. Detachment
There may be attachments or karmic entanglements blocking your solution.
Use this Detachment Key to let go of them. Relax and meditate on it for several minutes. Like a healing balm, imagine that a loving coat of peace and comfort is pouring down over you.
Are you willing to neutralize interfering energies and detach from them?
If not, are you willing to back up and change the agreement that binds you to them?
Step 16. Freedom
Allow this symbol for dissolving destructive blueprints to clear underlying patterns of confusion, abuse and neglect out of your mind.
Let any remaining heaviness or karmic entanglements about this situation lift up and off of you.
Dark clouds are dissolving into blue skies and sunlight.
Please note: It’s time to stop sending painful emotions and 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 17. Closure
Use the Circle to help you close any harmful openings or pathways that would leave you open to the distractions and interference of the external world.
Close the doors and seal the leaks – as if they were never there.
You are calm and ready to follow through now. Your mind is able to rest.
How do you feel now? Are you heading in the right direction?
If not, imagine that your Soul is turning you to face the right direction.
Step 18. Clean Up
A necessary part of maintaining healthy boundaries to make sure that we don’t get sucked back into unhealthy dynamics again. Otherwise, we’ll just get entangled again!
Take the time now to deconstruct any harmful habits or leftover emotional dramas that have been draining your energy. Fill in any voids with loving gratitude.
Are you experiencing any more drains to your energy?
Step 17. Completion
Finally, allow this Circle to make sure you’ve let go of all harmful ties, cords or vows that you may have entered into that would cause you to unknowingly continue participating in neglect or abuse:
“I let go of all harmful vows or obligations to be connected to dangerous energies or abusive situations.”
Do you feel as though you have a healthy sense of completion?
If so, congratulations! Give yourself time to rest and integrate.
Take a walk or enjoy some time out in Nature.

Many people realize how important grounding in the truth is because external power struggles can so easily uproot us from the truth about what’s best for us.
Staying centered requires that you know how to use the power of your mind to control your own energy.
To find out if this Mind Exercise can help you, gaze at the symbol in this picture for a moment and ask:
Are you having difficulty getting and staying grounded?
Do you feel caught up in a power struggle?
Do you need to disconnect from a meddling or intrusive person?
Are you feeling trapped by other peoples agendas?
Have you been wasting energy on the past?
Are you worrying or fearful about the future?
Is it hard to think straight or get dependable guidance?
Here’s how Grounding in the Truth works:
Put both feet flat on the floor and start with your arms and legs uncrossed. Simply gaze softly at the images while you repeat the affirmations that go with them for several minutes. Relax and breathe. Here’s an example:
“I reclaim and balance my five senses.”
“I use them to be present and aware so that I can actualize my Soul’s purpose.”
“I use them to help me protect myself and resolve my concerns appropriately.”
“I am aware of what’s most important.”
In times of difficulty CONFLICT or CONTRADICTION, your energy might feel very jagged or erratic. Take a moment to smooth things out with this Correction Key.
You will probably feel a lot of energy moving – that’s all right. It just means that the Circles are working to focus your mind and clean up your energy.
You will know you’re done when the energy calms down and you can begin to feel the energy of your Soul coming through. Then you can move on to the remaining Circles with each of their affirmations to complete the process.
Once you’re done, remember to relax and allow your energy to settle.
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.
Feel free to move at anytime in any way to help you embody your experience!
Step One: Establish a strong intention stated in the positive.
You might want to write it down. Examples:
“I maintain my integrity and am true to myself.”
“I gather my resources to be successful in my current endeavors.”
“I disengage from this power struggle.” etc.
“I ________________.”
Step Two – Integrity
Strengthen your resolve by detaching from harmful sub-conscious distractions:
“I stop wasting my energy on lies, harmful agendas, mind games and no win situations.”
“I stop feeding unproductive projects and inappropriate people.”
“I let go of subconscious agreements to tap into other people’s energy or to allow them to tap into mine.”
Step Three ~ Self-determination
Engage with your potential and bring it into positive balance.Breathe deeply with these affirmations:
“I open up to my positive potential.”
“I follow my own life path.”
“I bring ease and flow into my true life’s path.”
Step Four – Soul Guidance
Continue to relax with your breath and affirm to yourself:
“I reclaim the energy, power and gifts of my Soul.”
“I use them to be present and alert.”
“I integrate them to create my Soul’s true purpose.”
Step Five – Centering
Bring your awareness and vibe to your heart center and keep breathing:
“I am centered and my energy radiates out.”
“I open to my inner guidance and am present with it.”
“I connect my heart center to Love, joy and gratitude.”
“My core is protected and my energy is my own.”
Step Six – Balance
Take all the time you need with the Earth Chakra Key until you feel stable and balanced. See if you can still feel your Soul Vibration.
“My feet are firmly planted on the Earth.”
“I slow down and step carefully.”
“I am present and grounding in the truth.”
Step Seven: Direction
As you move forward, what is the Truth about what’s next?
Are you positioned correctly?
Is something blocking you or are you blocking yourself?
Are you in someone else’s way?
Are you using the kind of emotions or energies that will take you where you want to go?
Step Eight – Truth
Empower yourself to make the necessary changes:
”I exist. What I say and do matters.”
“I am empowered to create and maintain healthy boundaries.”
“My life is my own.”
“I am empowered to maintain my own Soul’s purpose and path.”
Step Nine: Integration
To help you integrate, gaze softly at this symbol with these affirmations:
“I close down all harmful energy channels.”
You’ll know that the harmful channels are closed when the emotional chaos and mental chatter stops. Once that happens, confirm:
“I allow myself to receive generative life force and connect with life affirming channels of communication.”
Cross and uncross your hands over the midline of your body as many times as you like until the transformation feels complete.
Step Eight: To Each Their Own
Gracefully release all issues, karma and emotional baggage that don’t belong with you:
“I surrender other people’s issues, emotions and karma so I can uncross my own path.”
Once that feels complete, call back what genuinely belongs with you:
“I set things right so that I may move forward in peace.”
Step Ten: Completion
Close off the doors and pathways that lead you away from your Soul’s intended path.While gazing at the Circle, imagine any holes or pathways that might have come open during this meditation. They are the ones that are finished and you are done with.
“All completed holes and pathways are healed and sealed.”
“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”
Congratulations! Your energy is more your own and you’ll have a much easier time staying grounded now. Remember, a person whose energy is balanced and grounded benefits everyone. Be sure to take some time to relax and rest.

The energy continues to change! As we step more fully into the New Paradigm, the ability to ADAPT and Simplify Your Life promises to be more valuable than ever.
Transformation Games are inspired by Kuan Yin, a beloved and respected healing guide among natural health and energy medicine practitioners.
*Caution! Her advice, as always, is direct and to the point! You will want to get out something to take notes with.
Welcome to the I Ching Reading and Transformation Game for:
Hexagram # 17 – ADAPTING by Simplifying Your Life
“Simplicity is the path of inner direction and self worth. Examine your goals and the standards you have set for yourself. If they are unworthy, inefficient or nonexistent, it will be difficult to make significant progress in a productive direction. ADAPTING your mindset and how you’re using your energy is the appropriate response at this time. Use your inner wisdom to adjust to the realities of your new environment. See things through the lens of common sense and inner guidance. Dispense with ungrounded over-indulgences in whatever form they take.
To clear away complications and wasted effort, it may be necessary for you to refocus and look at your situation from a more objective perspective. You may even find that you need to get out of your own way! As you re-examine your efforts, remember the strength and power that lives within you. By ADAPTING to your new awareness and simplifying your life, you will find many unexpected rewards.”
This Game is made up ofIntuitive Learning Circles, pertinent questions and positive affirmations that will:
give you a new perspective
activate your heart wisdom and
help you ADAPT to a simpler mindset by clearing up mental and emotional clutter.
Some questions to consider as you play Simplify Your Life are:
“Am I making things more complicated than they need to be?”
“Am I wasting my time and energy chasing after too many things?” or
“How can I simplify the way I’m approaching certain projects or relationships?”
If you contemplate one or more of these questions for a few minutes and then go through the game, you’ll be able to shift your attitude and refocus your mind very quickly.
Why Simplify Your Life?
“The pressures of life seem to increase everyday so we need to find guidance that comes from a reliable source. Go through the sequence anytime you feel scattered or overwhelmed. By going within and allowing your Inner Guidance to show you the way, you can simplify your life, make productive decisions and move forward with greater self confidence while you let the chaos take a back seat.”
How to Play Simplify Your Life:
Simply look at the sequence of Circles below while you ponder the questions or positive affirmations that go with them.
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.
Take a few breaths and relax. Use a soft focus to help you go within and access new energy and clarity. What you do with the information you come up with is up to you!
Simplify Your Life:
1. To begin, look at this symbol with a soft, relaxed gaze. Repeat to yourself several times:
“I am ready, willing and able to shift my perception from scattered to focused – from complexity to simplicity – from ineffective to effective priorities.”
Imagine your life is like a movie and that your camera is filming it from a certain angle. Allow your Inner Guidance to pull the camera back and move it to an entirely different angle. Focus in on this new perspective like a close up in a movie.
2. While looking at this next Circle, think about the different activities you are engaged in. Ask yourself:
“Am I putting too much pressure on myself?”
“Am I spreading myself too thin?”
“Am I going after too many things?”
“Have I been seeing this situation honestly?”
3. Notice if the whole situation makes you feel anxious or uneasy. Breathe a few times and allow this Circle to help you to calm down and see more clearly.
Imagine you can adjust the settings on your senses – like brightness and color on a camera. “I see things calmly and with clear perception, through the lens of my Soul.”
4. Use this symbol from Reiki Chakra Keys to open and balance your Third Eye Chakra. You can do this by gently gazing into the Key while you relax and breathe for a minute or two. Use this positive affirmation to help:
“I open up to my intuition and common sense so that I can become aware of what I truly need.”
5. Use this Reiki Chakra Key to open and balance your Fourth Chakra located at the center of your chest.You can do this by focusing your attention on the Circle while you relax and breathe for a few moments.
Once you feel more open and at peace, ask for help from your Soul resources.
6. Now that you’ve cleared up some of your misperceptions, you can use these next few Circles to help you separate fact from fiction. Start by asking yourself:
“What percentage of the work that I’m doing is actually benefitting me?”
“Are there any dangerous assumptions I’m making that are actually a waste of my time and pulling me off track?”
If so, can you name what they are?
Does it seem as though you’re just circling around and around without getting what’s really important done? Are you being as direct and efficient as you could be? Are you exhausted and pushing too hard?
Describe what your experience has been like.
7. Visualize what you’re trying to accomplish:
“Is there clutter I could clear up that would help me get back on track?”
If so, is it your clutter or someone else’s? If it belongs to someone else, use the Circle to visualize sweeping it all up and sending it to the Light so that it can go to wherever it belongs.
8. Slow down and ask yourself for more clarity:
“What affect am I having on those around me?”
“Are there any activities I’m involved in that are counter productive or even obsolete?”
If so, can you name what they are?
Am I wasting energy and time due to lack of focus?”
“Is there some confusion that needs to be cleared up?
Are there other issues that I need to be aware of?”
Continue your inquiry until you’re pretty sure you know what’s happening.
9. Now it’s time to clear some epigenetic patterns. Relax for a minute and tune into your solar plexus area.
Is there something about the situation that reminds you of the way your family sometimes behaves?
How about someone else that you know? If so, are you willing to let it go?
Gently visualize letting that energy go to the Light and disappearing.
10. Take your time and use this Circle to clear confusion or complexities out of your mind. You may see them as a million details, numbers, calculations or just a bunch of heavy smoke.
“I clear away the smoke screen so I can see what would actually help me.”
11. Relax with this image and affirmation for a minute or two.
“I am willing and able to let go of complications and simplify my life.”
12. As you gaze softly at this symbol from Divine Nature Activated, imagine that you can clear up the communication lines between your mind and your body.
If communication lines seem tangled up, see them going to the Sun and disappearing.
If communication seems outdated, see your internal system upgrading.
If you seem disconnected, imagine your communication lines straightening out and connecting properly within yourself and the outside world.
(You’ll want to do this while you’re both crossed and uncrossed over the mid-line of your body).
13. Once you’re perceiving things more clearly, ask another question:
“What am I struggling with and am I willing to let it go?”
If you are willing, go ahead and send it to the Light as you did with the others.
If you’re not willing to let it go, at least you now know what’s really going on.
14. Once you’ve gone through the DNA clearing section of the game, see if you can use this Circle to focus on what’s really important.
Take your time and let everything come together in the center, blank space of the Circle. “I focus on what’s really important.”
You may want to write down what comes to you.
15. Now that you’ve gone through the Simplify Your Life Game, see if you can use the Throat Chakra Key to give voice to what’s really important.
“I access my true voice and can express what I truly need.
I need to _______________.”
16. Place your intention in the middle of this Circle and consciously send your energy towards it for improved manifesting. Just like aiming at a bull’s eye!
17. Help yourself to move forward in the right direction by using this Circle to seal and heal all the holes that may drain your energy or lead you back into distractions and complications.
“All holes are sealed and healed.”
“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”
18. Finish the game by making sure that your aura is repaired and strong – a finishing step that will improve your health and focus even more!
Congratulations!
Thank yourself for taking the time today to clarify between things that are helpful and those that aren’t. You’ve given voice to what’s important right now and as a result, saved yourself a lot of time and trouble. Not only that, you’ve let go of some epigenetic patterning that’s been cluttering up the situation. This is a positive step in the right direction!
Bring the energy of gratitude in and let it connect with an inner fountain of gratitude that lives in your heart.
“I am empowered to simplify my life. I am ready, willing and able to follow through on my true priorities.”
Now is a good time to take a walk or go out into Nature to help this all integrate. Be prepared for new ideas and solutions to make their way towards you.
