We all know the power of emotions in our lives. When we have our emotions in harmony and balance they can make life beautiful, and when we let our emotions get the better of us, they make our life a living hell. Our emotions play an important part of our aura. Everything we feel radiates a spiritual energy corresponding to the quality of our emotion. It is a sad fact that often the weakest part of a person’s aura is the emotional body.
The key thing to understand with emotions is that they do not think. The job of the emotional part of us is to feel, to give life to our thoughts. Our mental body is the director of our consciousness and emotions are meant to be the spiritual motor that puts ideas into action. Once an idea is wed with an emotion, it had tremendous power and will express itself in some way.
The emerald green ray is a wonderful energy to work with in the emotional body. It helps to keep balance and harmony between thoughts and feelings. We want to have a rich and expressive emotional life, so it’s important to nourish the emotions with spiritual energy and keep our emotions on a high a level as possible.
We all know how important a good upbringing is. In childhood, we form patterns of behavior that we carry for the rest of our lives. If we were fortunate to have been brought up in a loving and supportive environment, that will carry us a long way in life even if later on we meet with adversity. In the same way, if we were brought up in a difficult and unsupportive environment, we can carry the mark of those experiences into adulthood as well.
Metaphysics teaches us that regardless of the kind of childhood we had, we have the ability to surmount any challenge or obstacle of our young years. No matter what kind of life we were born into, it’s up to us as to what we make of ourselves.
From the point of view of the aura, the first seven years of life are especially crucial because it takes seven years for the basic auric power to become fully engaged. This means that before that time, the consciousness of the child is particularly adaptable. Patterns of behavior are not yet fixed. This is true for the subconscious mind as well. Although the subconscious mind of the child is being filled with the experiences around it, those experiences have not yet been firmly established as a basic pattern of behavior.
At around age seven, the child receives what is known as the mental etheric body. This is a protective body that surrounds the auric field. It performs key functions including helping to channel spiritual energy into the aura. The interesting thing is once we receive this supportive body, it solidifies the energies of the aura itself. This is necessary to stabilize the auric power and give the child a steady spiritual footing. It also solidifies patterns established in the subconscious mind. This can work in our favor with the many positive and essential things that have been established there. Yet it can also set the stage for some of our tests and challenges later in life as it also solidifies undesirable behavior patterns.
Of course, we develop patterns of behavior all through our life, good and bad. I’m talking about deep seated patterns that are established early. The philosopher tells us, “Give me the first seven years of a person’s life and you can have the rest.” And this is a direct reference to the tremendous impact this formative time in our life has on us.
After the age of seven, we can certainly change any bad habits we’ve acquired, but now more effort is required. We all know it’s not always easy to change a bad habit at any time, but the patterns from childhood can be among the most difficult to turn around.
Here again the Divine Light can be of tremendous assistance in rooting out any difficult or painful experiences from childhood that are adversely affecting us now. The great purifying energy of the orange-red flame and the healing power of the blue-white fire can do wonders to release any adverse patterns in the subconscious mind formed in those first seven years. It takes patience and determination to turn things around, but you will be amazed at how effective an ally the Divine Light is in this part of your life.
In Divine Light and love,
The subconscious is an amazing part of our mental apparatus. It’s far more encompassing and powerful than most people imagine. The subconscious is the seat of memory. It is a vast storehouse of thoughts, information, and experiences. If the brain is like a computer, then the subconscious is like the hard drive that stores all the information the computer has.
The subconscious records everything you say, think, feel, do verbatim and forgets nothing. You need the subconscious mind. You could simply not retain all that information in your conscious mind. The subconscious mind allows you to automatically perform everyday activities such as driving a car, brushing your teeth, eating, etc. It is said that 95% of bodily functions are regulated by the subconscious mind. The subconscious mind is essential in other areas such as building a healthy and dynamic character. The positive things we do are impressed upon the subconscious and form a positive pattern of behavior.
Problems come when negative experiences or destructive patterns of behavior are impressed upon the subconscious. Those negative thoughts or patterns are retrieved later to the conscious mind and this can wreak havoc in our lives. For example, if we are a smoker, we have generated not only a physical addiction, but we have programmed that behavior into our subconscious, which make the habit even harder to break.
By itself, the subconscious mind cannot change anything you send into it. It does not have free will as does the conscious mind. This is why you must be very careful how you program the subconscious mind.
The Divine Light is one of the most effective tools to help cleanse the subconscious mind of disturbing thoughts and mental patterns. Spiritual energy can also help rebuild and strengthen the subconscious with new spiritual power. What many people do not realize is that when a thought is impressed upon the subconscious, there is a spiritual energy associated with that thought that is impressed as well. This is why remembering an old, painful experience can be so disturbing. In retrieving the memory, you are also retrieving the destructive energy associated with that memory. By working with Divine Light, you can release that negative energy diffusing its power and disturbing effect. The thought itself is not erased, just the adverse effect.
In order to have success in your life, you must expect and nurture success. Then and only then can success manifest. It takes effort to turn around conditions like depression, sadness, frustration that have seeped into the subconscious mind. Those patterns were not generated overnight and it will take your dedicated attention to turn them around. The point is you can and are meant to turn them around. By working the spiritual energy, you can quicken the process of strengthen your subconscious mind.
With your subconscious as your ally, you can accomplish great things. You have unlocked a tremendous positive power in your life. On a daily basis, take time to cultivate positive patterns in your subconscious and nourish it with God’s light, and you will see your life blossom.
In Divine Light and love,
Forgiveness is one of the biggest parts of healing any relationship. In our life experiences, we’re all bound to step on each other’s toes at one point or another. As we spiritually mature, we’re inevitably going to make mistakes. So, there’ll be many times we’ll need to be forgiving or to ask forgiveness.
It’s not always easy to forgive. Our human ego gets involved and wants to hold on to grudges, angers, and so on. We may not recognize that we have injured someone or may find it hard to forgive a person who has done us a serious wrong.
What can make the act of forgiveness so hard is we think that if we forgive someone, we’re letting him or her off the hook. In truth, when we forgive, we’re letting ourselves off the hook. There’s a tremendous freedom in forgiveness.
In the aura, there’s a beautiful exchange of energy when people really forgive. This exchange of energy usually happens at the Higher Self point which tells us right away that by forgiving, we have taken the situation out of the human personality and are acting in a divine way. When someone forgives, I often see a beautiful pink light flowing from the person doing the forgiving to the person being forgiven. Both people are being blessed by such a spiritual exchange.
In the same way, when someone is genuinely asking for forgiveness, there is also a beautiful exchange of energy. I often see a purple light flowing from the Higher Self of the person asking forgiveness to the person who is being asked to forgive. In this case, there is a lot of peace being transmitted to help quiet things down so the person is in a more receptive place to accept the forgiveness. Sometimes, I see emerald green light flowing to bring in more harmony.
Forgiveness is the great healer of love. Regardless of what is going with you, make forgiveness an active part of your life. Do your best to make peace with your spiritual brothers and sisters. You cannot ascend into the higher dimensions of life holding on to old hatred and resentments.
The spiritual energy to work with when it comes to forgiveness is the deep rose-pink ray of spiritual love. Working with this energy helps lift your spirits and puts your relationships in God’s loving hands.
In Divine Light and love,
Barbara Y. Martin
