Soul Action
5 Rhythms & Program'd Trance
As the dance began and its first existence found its breath, there was momentum, a quickening, which once acknowledged found purpose and direction, impulses and creativity. There was knowledge that came out of the realms of the dark mysterious unknown when the light of the profound was experienced.
Flowing Momentum. The beginning.... where ideas are manifest. Where the seeds of our creations become rooted and grounded in the physical world. When a seed begins to grow it starts by putting down its roots. Only then when it is strongly related to the earth can it begin to extend itself to the outside world. It needs nourishment. Just like a relationship, if it is to grow, it needs attention and communication. Like a new baby needs love and caring to be able to grow healthily into the world, and trust his/her surroundings.
Our ideas, desires and dreams need attention and focus, if scattered and unfocused we will lose too easily the sense and importance of this beginning. The tree will topple and fall.
Staccato Action. Beginning to find form. Direction and clarity. Where the idea begins to grow, where we manifest our desires in the world around us. Action is needed. We cannot simply sit back and expect it to happen for us. We need to know the action that needs to be taken. We may need to learn or relearn how to do things that will help us achieve our goals. We may need to repeat over and over with trial and error, with out giving up until we get the results that we want. This is the dance of saying YES to Spirit, this is what I want. And then we must prove it with appropriate action.
Chaos & Creating the Abyss. The mind creates what it wants and what it does not want. It is necessary to let go of old patterns of behavior, habits and thoughts that serve no purpose. But we need to know what it is we are letting go of and what it is we want to draw to us. The whole body is mind, the cells and movements are mind. It is not simply an organ in our head. The body knows and remembers our thoughts, feelings and memories, so it makes sense to use the body in changing what no longer serves us. This means getting physical, surrendering the body and the cellular structure in order to open us up to letting go of past and inviting in something new, something we desire, something we wish to manifest in the world. Chaos has a great destructive energy which will dissolve past and help us to re-create our own futures. It will release us from the imprisoning patterns of the past. We learn that true growth requires passage through the often fearful realms of disintegration. We may be too attached to our ego's and habits to be ready to let them go. Addictions are strong. But it is not a time to simply give up.
Illusion and Transmutation. There is a greater possibility. We have released old skins. We cannot know for sure what will occur within the chaos, within the abyss, and we have to be open to surprises, we have to accept that Spirit ultimately will decide. We cannot take control of the greater plan of the mystery, that is constantly unfolding around us. All we can learn to do is accept the outcome of our letting go and trust we are being led in the right direction. It is no longer in our hands. If we try to force things to be the way we want them, then we are going against the will of Spirit.
Let go and let God !
We can put everything in place. This is our side of the bargain. This is our sacred contract with the higher good. We arrive at the doorway of our making but we do not break it down. In the place of illusion and transmutation the work is done and is coming to fruition, it is a time to give thanks, to feel the gratitude of this extraordinary life that the power of the dance has brought forth, and that together we are creating NOW. We give thanks for it being in our lives right NOW.
Stillness and Contemplation. The place of true knowing. We know deep inside what is right. When we seek our own guidance and listen deeply to our heart and soul, we can have no doubts of what is our truth. When we bring ourselves to this profound moment we can feel what our heart desires more intimately than at any other time. We begin to really know that we are aligned with Spirit and we are following our path simply because we have no doubts what so ever. We know in every cell of our body. We know what our next steps are. We know when to wait. We know when to act. It takes this deep meditation this emptiness and still point in time, where there is no distraction, to feel the power of our souls purpose. It may be just as we saw it, and it may have made changes along the way, but we will know.
This all takes practice. We can simply continue to do our own thing. Then that is exactly what we will do. Our own thing. Our own old patterns. Our own habits of movement. The body is locked in its own memory. Repeating over and over same old stuff till the day we die.
OR
We can learn a new form. A new way to move. A new way to be. It might just work for us ! It might even change our lives, for the better. It might even change the world !
Know and create your Dream and Dance for your Life !
