DECLINATION

At what point in a process may you stop and say ‘no’? This, of course, depends on the process, why you accepted and why you now decline. A birthing mother may not stop in the process of delivery and say no. A trapeze acrobat, once launched into the air, cannot say no. Likewise, once you are seated as a passenger on a plane or a rocketship, you cannot say no.

Those circumstances are extreme. For most events, you retain the ability to say no up to, and including, the final moments of its playing out in your life. You may also decrease your involvement or exposure to a situation, or change how you expose or involve yourself in a situation. The latter would be more of a Declination, a turning aside or bending away from the straight line that is the original intention.

This is often used in matters of poor Self Will, Self Esteem, and bad follow through, but it can serve a Higher Purpose. If you have come to a new concept or idea and finding an initial thrall, have driven yourself towards it quickly, you might suddenly begin feeling that this new concept is not what it first seemed. Perhaps you believed that it was a silk purse, but on closer examination, you find that it is a sow’s ear.

Maybe the new concept is a dogma that will replace an arthritic old idea with a new idea just as finite and misleading. Perhaps the concepts are yet too complex for this moment in time. If you have turned by degree towards this new concept, you can now begin turning away, in a reverse Suppination, or Pronation, declining interaction with its precepts.

Declination can be a direct refusal, but think of it more as part of a dance—the glancing, angled backstep. Declination gives you time to study the aspects ahead from a safe distance.

Most of us have been wisely schooled to know our opposition. Be wise enough to study your allies as well.

Blessed Be
