A Play Between Light & Dark

Imagine yourself standing at the top of a mountain. It is still quite dark, but dawn is about to break.

At the distant edge of the horizon, the sun begins to rise. You raise your arms in greeting, as this powerful force emerges from the darkness of the night. Sunlight begins to flood the land, and you feel warmth on your body.

As you breathe in the golden light from the sun, it ignites the spark within your own fiery heart. You are now filled with this brilliant golden solar energy. Your power center is radiating with vital life force. Take this power into your life and move forwards with confidence, love and courage.

A delightful visualization that is available to you whenever you need to tap into that light, that solar love  force.

I  live a non- dual life, the nature of existence consisting of one interconnected whole.

It’s the concept of experiencing Fire, you don’t see the heat as separate from the flames, they are seen as one.

That is the same with our ‘dark’ and ‘light’ ways of being. I am touching base on the light and love within us and also the dark within us. In my lifetime, I have explored the depths of these and it has been a journey of deep realization, understanding, acceptance and  celebration for who I am and what I am choosing to be and to become. It is a beautiful unfolding of love and choosing to say yes to the experiences life offers me, to grow, to root and to have trust.  

As I am sharing a ‘Planck Distance’ of me. I have a loving invitation for YOU to IN-PLORE, in depth, into your light and darker sides. As you IN- PLORE, be gentle, soft and slow. 

Connect to the space in the heart where everything meets, enter the bowl of vastness, listen to your song, your rhythm, give yourself to it and breathe as deeply and as slowly as you can.

I have a few journal prompts for you to shed more light into the darker parts of you, an opportunity to dig a bit deeper, to understand yourself deeper and a space to say THANK YOU, I’M SORRY, I FORGIVE YOU, I LOVE YOU.

Here you go:

  1. Which quality within you do you have the most trouble accepting and why do you feel that is?
  2. What is the biggest lie you’ve ever told and why?
  3. Name an area in your life where you’re seeing in black and white (good/bad, wrong/right, nice/nasty) what shades of gray are you missing?
  4. In what areas of your life do you struggle to think for yourself?
  5. Reflect on any personal habits that make you feel guilty. Why do they stir this emotion within you?

Remember be gentle, soft and loving as you work through these.

Here is a few positive affirmations to let your light shine brighter:

– I belong here, I am at home.

– I matter and what I offer this world also matters.

– I trust myself.

– Everything works out for my highest good.

– I am happy in my own skin and in my own circumstances.

– I choose to see the light that I am to this world.

As you explore your light and darker parts, remember “As you dissolve into love, your ego fades. You’re not thinking about loving, you’re just being Love, radiating like the sun”.
