 WINNOWING

   ~ refining resources

From ancient times on Earth, Winnowing has been used to Thresh the usable grain of a plant from its stalk. It was then thrown into the air, allowing the wind to carry away the lighter chaff as the heavier, edible portion fell back to the ground. In this way, the whole of the harvested plant was separated in order to collect the most valuable part.

This is your life. Over and over again you will plant and harvest; you will thresh and Winnow your resources and collect what is most valuable. Thus far, how are your farming skills? Are your stores fat and sleek and ready to utilize, or have you tucked away every part of a harvest and left it dirty and unclarified?

Holding onto the past does this. In order to store your memories in a healthy way, you must remove the chaff. You must cleave from the body of the nutritious grain, those parts that supported its growth and then died away. Once its job is done, the plant that produced the grain must be put aside, given back to the Great All to use again.

How many of your dearest memories are put away with unhealthy or dead support structures still attached? It does not matter how attached you are to these memories; know that they only truly shine once they are distilled. Do not worship something that is half-dead. Look for what is eternal and timeless. Apply your wisdom.

And if you cannot do this on your own, ask for High Help. Your Whole Self and your closest and Blessed Guides will help you, or even do this for you. Whether this be memories of a "lost" loved one, or actions, behaviors, and words you wish to retract, harboring what rots and spoils will never bring you comfort.

Allow for a Winnowing of those things that have passed. Stop consuming what is dead and non-nutritive. Allow your stores to distill into nuggets of Wisdom that when called upon, provide sustenance for your forward movement and growth.

FORBEARANCE

FORBEARANCE, 2020 MAY 27

FORBEARANCE

   ~becoming a steady caretaker

As you grow Wise, you develop higher self-control. Not only do you favor Responding over Reacting, you will operate using the restraint and tolerance of Forbearance. You will use Sight most prevalently and be more frequently seen by others with your Diadem in place.

Which conditions trigger your basest reactions? We do not speak of the flashpoint moments where anger and/or violence is intuitively used to defend life, but of anger, violence, judgment, and betrayal used in punitive ways.

Define one set of circumstances wherein you react in the least compassionate, most irrational and falsely judgmental way. Have you applied the age-old tenets in the questions: Is it True? Is it Fair? and Is it Helpful?

Forbearance allows you to step back and determine the conditions. How and why is it True? How and why is your conclusion Fair? And how might your actions be Helpful?

To "walk a mile" in someone's shoes, we must be able to approximate their conditions based on who they are and how they see the world. Can you punish the poor for your idea that they are lazy? Can you punish the ill because you believe they lack will power? Can you deride those persons who live opposite you on the social spectrum for having different ideas?

Most of us want peace. We are born with the need to survive and thrive. We need connection and community. Begin with our similarities and study with compassion our differences.

Use Forbearance to reach the wisest conclusions, and save for times of urgent action those ideas and behaviors that are relevant and yet noble. Do not be the little shepherd who calls "wolf," but the steady caretaker who determines when and where real action is needed before stepping into the fray.

DIADEM, 2020 MAY 26

 DIADEM

     ~ seat of the manifest Higher Self

When we speak of Diadem, we speak of noble authority, not as a socio-cultural construct, but of an aura that is visible to the trained Sight of the Seeker.

You have been in the presence of a person who carries a noble authority. Exuded through stately posture, wisely-considered speech, and elevated vitality, you can see, or at least sense, the white and gold auric field around them; you can feel the gems sparkling around their person.

This entity is in command of their Higher Self. They have given space and authority to Higher Ideas. Their hearts and minds are simpatico with their intentions and behavior. They are at peace in the world, playing their role as a manifestation of Great All. They are aware, using their Sight before using their judgment.

This is at work when we have a "Eureka!" moment, the sudden influx of complete and sometimes complex "Knowing" that solves a problem or inspires us towards a Higher endeavor. You will have seated your Diadem, and it will be glowing.

Seek out this experience. Place your self into conditions that allow for using your Sight and Intuition in having the Highest adventures of which you are capable. Don your Diadem and in so doing, inspire others to do the same.

WRINKLES AND WEBS

   ~shortening distances between your self and your goal

There is a richness to experiencing something perceived through the Sight, a wholeness than can form a Wrinkle or Web between you and what you want to achieve, allowing you to manipulate the distance between the point where you stand and the heart of the experience you desire. 

Even constructing with great care all of your Secondary Agendas to support the Primary Agenda, each experience shifts your understanding with gained knowledge, requiring that you continually re-create your Secondary, and even Tertiary Agendas. No new success is achieved in one step.

Wrinkling together the heart of something with the place where you now stand, constructing it like a Web--a strong, elegant link, forms a bridge. When this is done with intention, you may at any time, shorten the distance between the two points.

Identify one skill you would like to sharpen or acquire. Use your Sight to determine where the heart of this skill lies. This is your Primary Agenda. Using Secondary Agendas, actions that provide access to the Primary, fold the space, Wrinkling the fields between you until your Web is seated in the heart or center of the target desired, including its many nuances. 

Once connected, you will make a quantum leap, if not in physical expression, in spirit and emotion. You will See and Sense more of what is required to achieve your target.

Suppose you would like to become a portrait artist. You might develop a foundation that begins with pencil and paper, repeating basic methods for shape-making, or you could first study Masters, working backwards from the heart, and what you perceive to be success. Using your Sight, you could enter a Master's painting, and with all of your senses, feel your way deeply into that Master's creative process. Each nuance you Sight and understand creates more Wrinkling and Webbing.

We do not talk of these methods as short cuts, or as a means to skip over the sometimes mundane task of developing and perfecting skills, but to help you understand that beginning at the center or heart of a thing, allows you to better see how you may reach that heart and fully experience that desire. Let the ultimate goal inform your every task, even the most meager.

As a portrait artist, how do you see line and value, and the evocative, invisible allure of the chosen art when you begin at its center, versus seeing the superficial structure of what lies at the surface? The Mastery radiates, forming its own Webbing and Wrinkling, illuminating the inroads to its center.

The sculpture will show you preferred materials. It will show you tools, and how to feel the material that should be removed. The music will show you which instruments it requires; it teaches you how to weave. The book will show you its language. The meal will show you its ingredients. The machine, its parts. The system, its infrastructure.

Practice studying the heart of something you long to know and/or do. As you invite inside your self/Self the mystery of the core, you expand your ability to reach it, and to develop your own expression.

SIGHT

March 1, 2024|2020, ABILITY, INTERPRETATION, THE SIGHT

SIGHT, 2020 MAY 24

SIGHT

   ~More than the mere interaction of eye/brain, Sight is the ability to interpret what you see.

Having "The Sight" indicates that you are looking deeper than what is visually present, using your intuition and All World abilities to render the most complete picture possible.

When you buy a red car, you will begin to notice other red cars on the road. When you begin a family, you will notice other families. This is because you have focused your Sight, not through the physical eyes, but through the receptors that give your life purpose.

Your filters for this can work in your favor, or against it.

Let us say you want to embody more Peace. Will you Sight those who seem to exude Peace, or those who seem to entirely abjure it? Maybe you will do both, polarizing the phenomenon and comparing them. One set of indicators (such as dress, posture, and speech), will become an attractant, and one a repellent.

As you deepen your abilities, you will find that your filters become finer and more refined. You will penetrate the surface of things and become comfortable with the Shadow. And you will orchestrate your distilled wisdom, experience, and intuition into a guide book that lets you not only better study the world, but lets the world experience what you study.

YOU, AS MIRACLE

YOU, AS MIRACLE, 2020 MAY 23

 

YOU, AS MIRACLE

Do you believe that You --your self-- are a Miracle? 

What does this mean, and why does it matter?

Even if you do not believe your self a Miracle, do you believe that something Miraculous moves through you--that you have been created by an energy and intelligence higher than your own? It is not necessary to know what this is; you can feel it.

What if you could put aside your ego, your worries and false ideas, for moments enough to allow that Miracle to create? What if you could subvert what is mundane and temporal, allowing for what is eternal and brilliant?

You can, and you do. In moments between breaths, or upon catching the shock of sun on a rainbow, at an overlook, in the face of a newborn, you have subverted your self. You have connected at a level above your daily concerns.

Do this now. Do this every day. Look for the Miracles. In particular, release the Miracles that are you, that are inside you, waiting.

 CONTAINMENT

   ~locking away toxic conditions

Certain conditions are toxic, not only to your self, but to those with whom you interact. Whether this be emotions like rage, greed, grandiosity, or cruelty, until the conditions are controlled, they must be contained. What exists in your life that is locked away, or needs locking away?

We each see the world through a personal lens built on our socio-cultural programming, making it more difficult to accurately identify and assess certain toxic conditions. Perhaps your society favors aggression, dominance, greed, and cruelty. This is not to say that every member will embrace these ideals, but overall, as each person has a vibration, so does a culture.

Can you give a fairly accurate assessment of how your society ranks in the world, from toxic conditions to beneficial ones? Can you fairly identify your own beliefs, tenets, and normatives? And what can you do to change the story when you find your society is out of balance and harmful to harmonic interactions with other cultures?

Begin with the self. How far do your responsibilities extend, and where do they overlap with your personal freedoms? How do you define freedom? How do you define responsibility?

If we follow the Golden Rule --do no harm to others-- do your guidelines for living adhere? Can you treat persons of differing beliefs and behaviors as equals, sorting them only by how negatively or positively they contribute to life? To understand your self, you must understand how you assess and value other life forms, including the plants, animals, and energies that are necessary to maintain the cycle of continuation.

Today, identify and assess the toxic conditions you may falsely hold as beliefs. Follow the ripple effect out into the world. What needs to be shifted, and what is so toxic it must for the present, be locked away? 

Like a stone dropped into the water, you are a powerful force. Be awake to your own abilities.
