I lie in my bed the moon light and the procession of stars are shining in the night skies. I see a falling star sail by in its brilliance. The blackness soon turns to a velvet blue as the stars give way to the morning light. I love the moment between the closing of the veil of the dark of the night and the opening of the light. All I see now is Venus, the morning star and the fullness of the moon. As I arise in the morning I can hear the beautiful sounds of the birds outside waking to the morning sun, the cats purr and rub against me in their morning greeting. Walking outside with a cup of tea I sit down and watch a bird in the tree or a family of birds flittering around the ground. I see a bird or a flock fly by on their daily journey. Flying free in liberty. The colors and hues of the morning skies as the sun kisses all around. The spider in its dew laden web. The beauty of the landscape all around from the trees, to the shrubs, to the flowers to the moss on the ground. The smells, the sights, the delight of Nature in its elemental wonder and beauty to the senses, mind, body and spirit. I breathe in and absorb the elemental energies all around me.
To get energy one needs direct physical contact with a living energy source. The picture I have painted above is an example of all the various elemental energies we have around us that we can draw from both an energy level and use for creativity and motivation one. There are various ways of absorbing Elemental energies. Two examples are breathing in the energies thru the pores of the skin or the nose. The other is to utilize the senses by getting the energies through the use of sight, sound, smell, and touch.
Music of another kind floods my mind. As I move to sit in the middle of the floor from a long day, soft notes float through the room from a player on the desk. Each note that reaches my ears sends a message to my mind and I begin to quiet from the inside. Each note is like a key used to unlock a door. Each door brings a deeper breath, a slower breath, and I slowly relax and hear nothing but the notes. Now I can hear not just the notes but each beat of my heart as it pushes the blood through my system. I am now slowly becoming one with my inner self. I can feel the change in the air as you enter the room. The energy around me has changed and now there is another source for me to take advantage. As you sit next to me I reach out and take your hand in mine. You touch my shoulder with your other hand and now I am feeling myself come alive yet again. Focusing on one another, our touches, as simple as they may be, enable us to share our energies willingly with one another. Each breath, each thought takes in your essence. I feel warm at first then quickly anxious as I take it all in. Tingly, jittery, and very upbeat I continue to focus on you and all that is around you. I can smell your scent and it too is like a key to another door which has been locked.
From the sounds and touch to the smell itself, all these things allow us to draw energies directly from another. Although we may not always have a person so close to us to share energies with like described above, we can take little pieces of energy from the people with which we come into contact on a daily basis. It may not be as quickly fulfilling, but we choose to allow what we wish to affect us. We choose to focus on that which benefits us the most.
Below I will paint a picture of chaotic energies.
Inflaming our senses, we go out the door, saying hello to the people as they pass by. We open the door, get into the car, and travel down the silence of the street. All silent, except for the birds chirping in the trees. The sun is shining in the blues skies and the moon is perched in the blue. We turn on the CD player and put in some music, the sounds drift into the air. Onto the chaos of the freeway we go all the traffic and noise all around us. The rushing of the cars and trucks going by. The thunderous, wonderful sound of a motorbike zooming past the rider and passenger feeling the wind against their bodies, like a bird soaring in the skies in liberty. We then drive into the parking lot of the local town centre and see all the people rushing around, the noise and the sounds. All the active chaotic energetic sounds all around. We enter a marketplace and look at the various stalls with arts and crafts on them and the stalls selling the delights of food and drink. People rush by and people laughing and all sorts of emotions rushing thru us. As we exit, we go and do shopping and feel the chaotic energies all around. We then enter the opera house and see a matinee. The soaring voices, the people all around the joy, the delights the sorrows. The drums beat, the stings long twang. All the different energies converge into us. We then leave and out into the street and shop again. All the people rushing around, the noise from all around and the sounds of traffic. We get into the car and ride away from the chaos and arrive at a ranch and get on the horses and ride into the woods.
The above represents how the energies of chaos are all around us and how we can use them for our benefit.
Energy is all around us and in many forms and types. There are many techniques and methods in which we can put energy into us and many different energy signatures. Learning how to control the input and output of energy would be of great benefit as is focus and fine-tuning. For many life as well as energy is like a rollercoaster and things such as weather, stress and our surroundings play and part in energy input and output. I have found that learning about yourself, your needs, yourself and providing a balance is the key Looking at the big and the small things in our lives and all around us.. A simple way of doing this is observing and writing a record in a diary Even if it is just a few lines, I am sure it will help.
