World View Perspective: Until we resolve the past we can't evolve into the future

 Our human system holds a great deal of energy and information. Memories are held in our cells, in our minds, our hearts and our emotions.  We might think we have thought everything through from the past but it isn't just a mental exercise.  The saying, "We must feel in order to heal' is real.  If there has been abuse, major distrust, extreme betrayal or out and out attacks, we can harbor those negatives thoughts and feelings for years, bound up in our own system.  We might even attach, identify or constantly react/respond as if that is who we are.  In TRUTH, that is not WHO WE ARE!

The TRUE SELF that we are is not our accrued experiences. The TRUE SELF is the ONE THAT KNOWS.  To get to the HEART of the TRUE SELF, however, we must release through gratitude and forgiveness and emotion, like rage, what we have held into our system, unconsciously or consciously.  We all have darkness and Light within us.  To become aware of both aspects and elements, we need to aspire to know our Higher Self and begin to communicate with it. Our Higher Self will guide us correctly to clear what has been blocking us.

 As Carl Jung teaches us, 'Once that that has been unconscious becomes conscious, it cannot become unconscious again.'  That means once we can see it, see the effect it has had on us, emote the feelings it evoked, like screaming into a pillow, whatever it was will be released.  We can also release the chords between ourselves and other people and situations.  

Start by having a sense they represent different colored ribbons between you and the other person.  Red might mean the joint anger, green might mean jealousy, yellow might mean envy!  Work with what feels correct.  Imagine the other person, standing a few feet away.  See and feel the joint ribbon.  With clear determination, produce a pair of scissors and cut the ribbon between you.  Imagine that bond being released, as it falls off you, see it falling off the other person.  Do a brief blessing to you both, sending LOVE and LIGHT to both of you and say, 'PEACE, RELEASE"! Have a renewed sense it is now gone.

Even if what we held onto was not that major, it still might be holding us back in terns of our evolution and growth.  Being mindful of darkness and Light, we begin to realize we have a centered Self that is not either extreme but rather, exists clearly between the two.  Our True Self has the awareness it is not the past experiences or either extreme but the ONE WHO LIVES IN THE PRESENT WITH CLARITY, SELF-LOVE and SELF-ACCEPTANCE.

Unsolved energy we carry from the past acts as a heavy weight, weighing down our physical, mental, emotional, psychological and spiritual selves.  Keeping us stuck and bound up in the past until or unless, we consciously work to clear it.  When we have accessed OUR HIGHER SELF, to see things clearly, we can offer that old energy to it, requesting that it be removed and any and all old bondage to it be released for peace and resolve.  It may take up to three days to experience new, refreshed energy but, if we are sincere, it will clear!

Our ultimate goal is to experience being in a state of WHOLENESS, where we are conscious of the opposites of life and the extremes of life yet we are centered in our TRUE SELF, which is present in our human body but it needs to awaken.  Our aspiration to access our HIGHER UNDERSTANDING is so we can use our OWN INNER LIGHT to receive that connection in order to see in the dark what we have been unconsciously carrying.  Then our systems begin to heal.  As we heal, we can also evolve into the human being/BEING we were always meant to be.  Much less burdened from the past.  Be grateful for all the teachers and life experiences you've gained and forgive all that has been hurtful or harmful and continue on your most positive, healthy path forward.  Remember to forgive yourself as you forgive others and be grateful and value yourself, too. Trust you are being guided in this pursuit by your HIGHER SELF, who LOVES YOU! IT IS GOOD AND IT IS WHO WE ARE!
