The Color of Change
Wednesday, March 31st, 2010The world hates change, yet it is the only thing that has brought progress.
–Charles F. Kettering
The weathercock on the church spire though made of iron, would soon be broken by the storm wind if it did not understand the noble art of turning to every wind.
-Heinrich Heine
Welcome change as a friend; try to visualize new possibilities and the blessings it is bound to bring you…Never stop learning and never stop growing; that is the key to a rich and fascinating life.
–Alexander de Seversky
Change? Yes We Can! Well, maybe not…I have just got to write about change this week. I have put it off because it is so politically fueled with all the rhetoric about health care and the current administration’s dedication to change. In fact, the current administration was elected on the concept of change so what is all the fuss about?
It is about fear; fear is what the fuss is about.
Why would the “collective” consciousness be any different than an individual when it comes to change? I mentioned in my entry: “The Frequency of Thought” that individuals are afraid to change, which is one reason why I often use the word “shift” instead of “change”.
Just how is change manifested in your energetic system? The color that gets my attention in your energy field more than any is the color red. Red IS all about change. It is swift, fast, and often emotional depending on the temperature of the red. Warm red pushing toward orange and what I call “Chinese Red” is far more emotional and swift than the cooler reds pushing toward a brick or maroon. Red in your energetic system can also indicate pain, yet when you think about it, pain is there to 1) get our attention and 2) initiate change (usually immediate change).
The two areas in the energetic system that represent change and movement are feet and anywhere to your left side, which represents energy coming INTO your life. Feet represent moving forward and when there is red, particularly on the underside of your feet then it tells me you are ready to jump from the frying pan into the fire! It may or may not represent moving forward, as you may be jumping back and forth frantically or perhaps going around in a circle with one foot nailed to the floor. It is all about your attitude toward change that signifies the direction of the shift (or lack thereof). When you resist the change, then there is a good chance your body will react in some manner in order to coerce you into shifting.
On the left side there are several indicators of change, a thin red line in your field is more like a hiccup or a “ripple in the force” as I call it. It is often something or someone that you have attracted in order to get your attention or perhaps set your direction for the next few months. It is a shift more than a dramatic change. The band of colors that precede or follow the thin red band will give me a clue as to what instigates the change and what is to follow the change. For instance, if it is preceded by a band of blue, then yellow and then there is the thin red band, my perception is that you are going to be voicing your truth,(blue=communication and truth) your opinion and stand up for your beliefs (yellow is ego, self) and in doing so, you will create a shift in your current circumstances.
I would interpret this as a good thing to do, speak up for your self, because it will bring about the shift you desire…as that red is thin. If the band were wide and heavy moving into your field I would refer to it as a tidal wave of change. This would tell me that I need to prepare you for big changes, perhaps even letting you know that speaking your truth will have permanent and lasting ramifications…change in job or career, partner, spouse, money, house, whatever is needed to get you where you need to go! The abruptness of the wave signals a dramatic shift in circumstances. If I get the impression that you are ready for the shift, then I will work with that and help you prepare.
If I get the impression that you do not see it coming, rather than alarm you, we will focus on the benefits of change and the importance of setting intentions, dreams and goals. Intuitives or practitioners that would focus on the sense of loss or dramatic change are not working for the highest good of the client. (And there are plenty out there that do feed off a client’s fear). Instilling fear will establish fear in the client’s thought frequency, thus creating more chaos rather than offering direction. My job is to give you direction, not give you warnings and instill fear for my own validations.
Free will secures our ability to shift our thoughts
and shift what we attract into our lives.
For so many, change represents loss. We think in order to change we have to leave behind things we treasure and people we love. Change is not about loss, change is about new beginnings… change is a reset button. Chances are, somewhere in the past 3, 6, or 9 months YOU put it out there that you wanted change. So often we ask for it and don’t even realize that we have ordered it right off the menu!
Look at the negative scripting that brings on the swift changes in your energy and your life. I also have a few key phrases at my Frequency of Thought entry…and here I wanted to show you an actual e-mail I received, I will only pull out a few excerpts, but you will get the idea of how this type of mindset can bring in the tidal wave of red because it was INVITED in with ALL this NEGATIVE scripting…poverty consciousness is one thing, it is where we choose to reside vibrationally, yet asking for a huge shift often leads to one smack after another.
Keep in mind, this is just one person, one letter, but powerful in what it requesting from the Universe. Believe it or not, on down the road will be a request for a reading and probably a quip of “I didn’t see this coming…”
…If I had …I should have come close…I had …for over six months. I gave… I pay … I pay for … I took out the full amount … paid for….I may be losing my job … because of the lack of work. That would also mean the loss of the company car… I was able to take a new position…It did not come with a raise and I would lose the company car…I bought another car …was not able to withstand the daily commute. …helps offset the 2 to 3 thousand dollars loss in benefits to having the company car. I did get a raise the second week in January. realize that I do not have a pot of gold…I am close to foreclosure…threatening me. I guess I do not understand…
Do you recognize anyone you know in the above passage? What can you do to switch that around? The thoughts AND the language have to be shifted in order to stop attracting the same situations.
I talk about shifting language, shifting thoughts in several entries, (Sabotage and Self-Hypnosis) but if you really want to shift or know someone in need of help, recognizing the scripts are negative is the first step in recovery, then the hypnosis audio, Vibrating Whealthy! is a great support system.
Our collective conscious, our country, is in the midst of a tidal wave of red. Unfortunately, what is also influenced with this color of change, this wave of red, are fear and survival issues, anger, even rage, directed at our government, and our politicians. Red is about raw human emotions, so that coupled with the potential for change, which so many of you regard as loss, brings little surprise that the climate is as volatile and unreasonable as it is.
Red is about reaction, not action and many out there are using the actions of others to justify their emotional reactions. The irony in all of this from an energy standpoint, is that the anger, rage, and fear responses from individuals will create and bring in that same energy and perpetuate the emotions and the fear.
All of these issues and concerns are base energy issues about survival, physical as well as financial. Our collective environment is no different than the e-mail excerpt I posted above! You cannot solve an issue while you are in the same energy that created it. So unless we make the connection between our collective consciousness, our collective opinion and the anger, fear, and focus on survival issues within our own private life, we will continue to experience the chaos and rage that is encompassing our communities. Like attracts like, that is why there is a mob mentality regarding beliefs and the polarizing aspect of current events.
I am amazed at the division of the American people in regards to the health care bill, really I am. My job is to look at the energy on both sides of the coin, not to judge or decide which is best. The solution for this current state of affairs is to focus on where the benefits reside, what are the positive aspects of what is happening in our lives? in our government? in our leadership? That is where the energy and emotions need to be directed. It is not solely about directing our individual energy in order to benefit ourselves personally, it is just as important to focus on the positives of what creates our communities, our cities, our states, and our country. We can bring in positive waves of energy and color if we all begin to believe in the inherent goodness of our thoughts.
Fear, condemnation, and negativity will perpetuate circumstances to support those thought frequencies. How emotional are you about our current state of affairs? Take a breath and look at how those critical emotions are reflected in your life, your health, and your finances.Base tissue issues are all about foundation, and manifest in the tissues and organs that are related to solids: bones, teeth, joints, muscles, colon, bowel, nails, hair…any of these things ring a bell? If you said, “yes” then it is time to manage your energy.
Want things to shift?
Begin within.
Let’s change the big red tidal wave of rage, anger, and fear to the subtle and comfortable shift of green’s new beginnings. It is not about the revolution of red, it is about the evolution of green. I personally want to put my thoughts and my energy toward progress and peace. On that note, have a wonderful week, and blessings to you. Catherine
