Jim, one of the things I've been noticing lately through Facebook posts
and emails from the people in our Mastering Alchemy community is a level
of discomfort in their guts, in their stomachs. And they're saying consistently
that there's also a level of resistance. Sometimes they don't call it that but
there's a clear connection between resisting the current events and what
they're feeling in their stomach. And so I want to talk about resistance and the Third Chakra.
Let's do this, look, but let me set this up. Let me see if I put it in
perspective that makes sense. Now let me also say that this is an area where
we're going to start to play in Mastering Alchemy Light because in
Mastering Alchemy Light gives me much more room to kind of explain this in
different detail. But let's talk about three Chakras: First, Second, Third Chakra.
And let me say it in a way that you don't normally hear this. The First
Chakra most people consider is about the survival of the body. That's how we
learned it over the last twenty, thirty, forty years-- survival of the body. What
most people don't understand is: the ego lives in the First Chakra. And the ego is
wounded. Now the ego is an absolutely essential part of you it's not something
you cut away or throw away. It would be like cutting off your arm or your leg.
The ego is a huge part of you that's wounded. Simple terms. Also the rational
mind doesn't live up here, it lives in that First Chakra. And so the rational
mind is all about keeping you safe and having you fit in. And so you've got a
wounded ego, you've got a mindset that sits in survival, and a rational mind
whose job is to keep you safe and fit you in, in society. So when you put those
three things together you begin to get this apprehension or this "pay attention
to," or "what's around the next corner?" sense of off-balance to start with.
You know, to put in perspective the First Chakra was never
about survival it was about well-being. So if you can live in well-being, which
is kind of where all the work we play in goes, you get a very different result
than if you live in survival. So the First Chakra basically has this
apprehension, "Be aware- pay attention- I'm not sure" experience. Second Chakra is all
about creative expression. It's this space where you say, "Wouldn't it be great
if--?" But when the First Chakra/rational mind/ego is saying "Beware," all of a
sudden you get this apprehension in the creative expression. And so the creative
expression is defensive, off balance, uncertain. It's in the Third Chakra that
in well-being... when you have well-being in the first and this excited creative
expression in the second, the Third Chakra is all about the propulsion, the explosion--
Making it happen.
Making it happen. The, "Yes, this is exciting." But when you
have apprehension and creative expression in doubt/uncertainty, then you begin to have
a number of factors that play out in the Third Chakra. So if you ever have Third Chakra
solar plexus right where the ribs come together-- here in the soft part of
the stomach-- whenever you have an experience of that hurting, if you ask
yourself, "Am I in power or control, judgement or resistance?" Four words.
And, "Am I pushing against? Am I being pushed against? Am I resisting it? Am I judging
something? Am I trying to control something?" 100% answer: yes. One of those
four factors or variation of those four factors are what we are experiencing.
So the resistance people are feeling really comes back down into the uncertainty of.
"What am i doing?" and then drops into the First Chakra "Am I safe?" And so what is
really important in this time and why I point to Mastering
Alchemy Light-- just as an expression for people have a place to go-- is how do you
understand that and then how do you begin to move around in a way to where
you can recognize that, reconfigure it, step out of it, not be engaged with it
but simply recognizing: "I'm worried about--" And most of what people are worried
about today have absolutely nothing to do with them. So one of the biggest
issues that I'm watching is everybody on the planet is feeling The Shift. Now
we're five years into The Shift and it's beginning to accelerate. It's beginning
to take turns and twists and presenting opportunities that are contrary to the
status quo. And so you begin to see things starting to happen or you have a
sense of things happening that are different than "What I know." And there you
go again, right back into the, "Oh what's happening?" So the world itself is in a
state of apprehension. Minus the wars and the geopolitics and the finances, people are
in this Shift of Consciousness. And in this Shift there's, "I'm not sure what's
going on" when the first three chakras are structured based on survival.
Well, and just knowing that that resistance and that pain in the body isn't theirs
can be helpful to begin the process to release it. If I know that my gut that
this is just energy in my gut that doesn't belong to me and I can put the
word resistance to it or power/control/ judgment, perhaps that's the first step
for people to know I can not go there I can release it.
So what you're doing
is you're becoming conscious of being unconscious. Now that sounds like a weird
thing in a way but you basically move through life not really paying attention,
just on some level of automatic. It's in that level of automatic that
this apprehension or resistance or concern is. So let me even point in
another direction here in terms of all those fundamental tools we have on the
website in Mastering Alchemy. They're free. They're "Do this-- what happens?"
They're, they're basically a whole construct of how do you observe, how do you get into
present time, how do you discern between what's mine and what's not mine, how do I
get very grounded and understand what grounded is? It's these tools that are
going to allow the apprehension to be observed, then chosen as to what to take
an action with regard. So observation/ choose an action is very different than
unconscious of being unconscious which often has "Shoot, ready, aim." And then have
to back up and apologize and figure out how to get out of it. So this resistance
is very real but it doesn't have to be yours, and this is why we keep pointing
to things like the free tools in Mastering Alchemy. Understand-- I'm kind of
talking to everybody-- understand there is some very significant changes that are
right in front of you and they're beginning to become conscious and those
changes are going to be very surprising to the bulk of the planet. And they
aren't things that are not... You're very much capable of dealing with them but if
you wait until they're in your face that's going to be an awkward place. And
so to a great extent these morning conversations and the fundamental tools
and Mastering Alchemy Light and the whole program of how do you really learn
to manage yourself and step into a multiple consciousness, dimensional
consciousness that provides so much more than the limited "unconscious of being
unconscious" that we walk around in.
So that was a bigger piece than just resistance.
Okay
But I think that it's getting important. I keep feeling
this urgency to say to people: Pay attention, there's some very exciting
things happening and some of them are going to interrupt your status quo.
Yeah
So until next time.
