What Are You For?
“I know what you’re against. What are you for?” This line from South Pacific has been ringing in my mind since the Summer Solstice. As a result, I’ve come to realize, or maybe remember, that the best way to say NO to what I don’t want, is to say YES to what I do want.
For instance, instead of attending a protest to declare what you DON’T want, go to a march, a gathering, an assembly, a meeting, and commit your presence, mind, heart, and energy FOR something. Instead of holding a sign and chanting “No King,” hold a sign and chant “YES democracy,” or “YES DEI,” or “YES fair taxes for all,” or “YES women’s health rights.” You get the idea.
While it’s easier to stand up against something, and certainly easier to energize a crowd against something, the energy of NO is all too often based in fear, and certainly anger. The energy of YES is based in hope, visions, and possibilities for the future.
I was taught three basic maxims while I was training to be an energy healer, which I think can help make this change from no to yes make sense.
Maxim One: What you focus your attention (energy) on is what you manifest, create, or sustain. From a practical point of view, when you put your attention and energy on trying to eradicate what you do not want, you are, in fact, feeding that same situation or behavior. If you want to manifest or create something in your life, focus your attention and energy visualizing what you want, and, lo and behold, it actually manifests.
Maxim Two: The biggest aura wins. If you want to change, negate, or weaken an energy field, you must create a bigger field at a different vibration, and absorb the original, or smaller, field. You and I might think of changing an energy field as moving it to a higher vibration. However, we’re currently feeling and seeing the results of the bigger field being of a lower vibration, which is why so many basically caring and loving people are acting out rage and destruction.
Maxim Three: With the addition and inclusion of each individual, the combined energy field grows exponentially (1+1=2 to the 10th power). Gathering in groups to march, meditate, heal, etc. creates a huge wave or field of energy of the same color, or vibration, and a focused energy which feeds and impacts what it’s focused on. Those who do energy healing, or prayer work, use this energetic physics to heal, both in person and at a distance.
While I’m speaking of energy fields, we must realize that the policies and laws that are put in place ARE fields of energy. They are extensions of a huge field of energy, and manifestations of that field. They impact us simply because they are “law” and we continue to feed them by either fighting against or agreeing with them. To change them, we must work within a large community whose energies and visions are focused on what we wish to see come into play. Essentially, we must know what we stand for, hold that shining vision in our conscious minds, and lead with our hearts.
I hope you’ll join me as I make this transition from fighting against to standing for!
Blessings,
Charlotte
