Feeling Buried? Come Undone
Metaphysics is the
study of the nature of the world. It is a philosophy that looks at
the natural causes of reality. It seeks to enlighten by offering
another perspective on the possible root causes and effects found in
nature. In the world of metaphysics, there is no separation.
It is a gateway to a
greater understanding of self, self actualization, and the world we
live in. Because metaphysics dwells in a realm that is often unseen
and cannot be measured, (meta, meaning beyond), its observations have
often been rejected. But, they can not be ignored.
Metaphysics is a broad
subject. If you are looking at ailments or diseases in the body for
instance, Louise Hays has a phenomenal book, Heal Your Body which has
been a great resource for me. She shares her story of transformation
and lists from A-Z the mental causes for physical illness and the
metaphysical way to overcome them.
Having a problem with
addiction? A probable cause, according to Ms Louise, is running from
the self; fear; not knowing how to love the self. Hypertension? She
suggests a longstanding emotional problem not solved. Depression?
Perhaps the cause is anger you feel you do not have a right to have;
hopelessness.
Nature is a great tool
for studying metaphysics. I spend a lot of time with nature. I hug
trees. I even talk to trees. I meditate listening to the birds,
feeling the wind, embracing the sun.
I am a nut! And
whether you are ready to face it, heck, I think we are all nuts! Or,
seeds within a seed waiting to crack or to be cracked open. I think
the seed that lives within us is our heart. It is the symbol of the
seed that opens us to becoming that which we were born to be.
The shell protects the
young seed during its development. When it's ready, depending on the
life cycle, we are either planting the seed in preparation for
harvest or we are breaking the nut open during harvest.
I've seen over the
course of my life, the ebb and the flow of experiences that have
helped to both harden my heart and to open me to love by cracking me
wide open. I've seen that my hardening helped to soften someone
else. I've also noticed that some seeds- people- are harder to crack
than others. Some have grown old and are hard as rocks. Where love
may have been their nature, they chose the comfort of being in the
darkness of their shell.
Right now, there is so much love flowing in the Universe that some of these hard nuts- people- will become the rocks that we climb to get to the mountain top.
I like Brazilian nuts! They're hard, but they can be cracked open. To me, they are worth the trouble because I like the way they taste. I'm sure I've been a nut cracker, but I've needed some nut crackers to crack me open.
For all the times that I thought I was being buried only to realize that I was really being planted, I am grateful for
the relationships and for the situations that have shown up during
the changing seasons of my life. They have opened me up to myself.
Through
the relationship with my mother, I am connected the innocence of
being a child. I have learned that I am equipped with everything
that I need on this journey and I can chose to travel Light or carry
the pain of the past.
Through
the relationship with my children, I am connected to joy. I have
learned to detach myself from outcomes by allowing the lives that
have come through me to live their lives.
Through
the relationship with money, I am connected to the unlimited flow of energy circulating the Universe. Money has taught me to get still,
follow my passion, and know that all of my needs are met. “Seek
first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, then all these things
will be added unto you (me).” Matthew 6:33
Through
the relationship with relationships, I am connected to being a
woman. I have learned from the breakings of my heart how to comfort
myself; how to be with myself; how to love myself; how to look in the
mirror at myself; how to forgive myself; how to accept myself; how to
enjoy myself; how to give back to myself. I am a Queen awaiting my perfect for me, King.
Through the
relationship with food, I am connected to my emotions. I am what I
eat!
Through
the relationship with friends, I am connected to a circle of life. I have learned that I am the company that I keep and when people show
me who they are, I really owe it to myself to believe them.
Through
the relationship with myself, I am connected to Love! Love is the
seed that I am! It has- I have- the power to transform anything in my life. It is- I am- the vehicle that shapes my
reality.
Through
the relationship I have with God, I am connected to the oneness of life. With every
breath that I consciously or unconsciously take, I am connected to
the Mother, Father, and Universal Power of all there is and
Wherever I am God is and all is well!
This is the season of coming undone. Be encouraged!
