Use your feet! MAINTAIN AND RECOVER SANITY BY STAYING EARTHED. Your feet play a huge role in your connection to the earth and are your grounding connection…..we don’t usually honor this connection enough. Honor them and your connection to Mother Earth by giving your feet more attention physically and by using your intent to run more energy through them. Respect your feet and the Earth ; they are your primary connection to her. When you have your feet firmly on the ground and are consciously running energy through them, you can have your head in the clouds and still be a fully realized human being, because you will be balanced by your own earth connection. We are designed to pull the energy of Spirit through the top of our heads down into our bodies and then to draw the energy of the Earth up through our feet into our bodies, mixing the two energies in our heart and expressing them fully out through our hearts in our daily lives. People who lose awareness of our fundamental connection to the earth, tend to draw energy from others rather than source (Earth), losing proper sense of themselves as whole and holy and see themselves as much less than they are. Its kind of like a misplaced direction of energy. No bueno, man!
So, how to use your feet better. Physically, go barefoot or in socks as much as possible. Focus on your footsteps when you walk and bring the Earth energy consciously up through the soles of your feet. Set this intention a few times and it will begin to be enhanced naturally and easily. Walk in the dirt or sand and allow your feet to FEEL the earth, to feel the muck oozing up through your toes while in the mud. Your feet are much more powerful than you realize. Stroke your feet and massage them at the end of the day….you can use essential oils on the soles of your feet to receive their benefits in the rest of your body. Paint your toenails so they can greet you when you look at your feet-reminding you to keep them firmly on the ground. Foot baths using salt to draw off any unwanted energy will help keep your tootsies cleanly running as channels as your primary connection to the Earth.
A strong connection to the earth will help you greatly now to maintain and recover sanity by staying earthed. By paying attention to your feet your are respecting them and the earth. They are your primary connection to her! Use this mantra: I WALK THE EARTH WITH GRACE AND BEAUTY! YEAH!
Yeehaw! The elections are now over and its on to the task of reorganizing our world, moving from a consumer driven economy to a heart based economy. Just how will we take on this task? I feel this is all about our movement as a people energetically from the Divine Masculine to the Divine Feminine. Don’t get me wrong, here, guys, I see Masculine energy as a good thing, only we , as a society, have taken it to its extreme, and in doing so have created a good bit of dysfunction in our world. But, we had to take the Masculine to its extreme for us to have the full experience. So now we are swinging the pendulum back to heal ourselves and our Mother Earth by consciously retooling how we operate into exploring more of the Feminine aspect of ourselves.
Let’s look at defining these two energies. Divine Masculine in its balanced state reflects the active principle, that of doing and moving forward; paraphrased popularly as ” get ‘er done” in our society. This energy can also be protective in nature, sometimes aggressively so, exhibiting its power overtly to the world. At this point in our evolution, we have taken it to its extreme in the form of wars and violence, and oppression against women, due to it not having been properly balanced with the expression of the Divine Feminine. In our thinking, it is also the logical, rational “age of reason”, state of mind, and when allowed to run unchecked it becomes mind-dominated and ego driven. This Masculine thinking energy gone wild is the mind which tries to run us continually, and its expression is the confusion and mess of our outside world. Divine Feminine in its balanced state reflects the receptive principle, that of being and allowing, working with the energy fields to draw energy and form into itself, allowing what has been set into motion by the Masculine to be birthed. It manifests by magnetic pull rather than action. It is the gentle, intuitive side of the human experience, nurturing what has been created. In the past, the Feminine also dominated our societies and went out to its unhealthy extreme, and then the pendulum swung back to allow the Masculine to take precedence in our lives in order to balance us out, But now its time for us to explore more of the the Feminine again, to begin using both the Feminine and Masculine to create the perfect balance of being and doing in our lives.
We must focus on our own inner work to bring ourselves back into a truly balanced state with our Masculine and Feminine sides, so that we can begin to reform our outer world. Creating a daily life focused on a state of being more than doing and living a heart-centered philosophy will begin our transition into a more connected life, bringing our world into a balanced state using both the Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine energies. Any ideas on this?
