I’m a sungazer, and as such, I meditate with the sun at the dawn on sunny mornings.
The title of my last blog post was Eleven Illuminating Insights about Illumination.
Because I was bubbling with silliness, I decided to use that phrase as a mantra in my morning sungazing meditation on the second day of the New Year. Knowing that we were still in the midst of full moon energy, I knew it would be extremely powerful.
Every sungazing session is different as each day different energies are present on all levels. More on energetic influences and levels another time.
Sungazing is an intuitive practice for me, so I don’t prescribe any formal techniques. As I said in a previous post, sungazing is dangerous, so, if you are thinking of doing it, read my post about it and do diligent research before attempting it.
As I repeated the magic phrase that pays, eleven illuminating insights about illumination, I saw the sun with two large number ones in the center forming a gateway. In my mind’s eye, I felt myself pass through this gateway and into the sun.
My seven chakras were lit up with the energetic colors they represent: red base to violet crown. A curved rainbow ran through my body and into the ground behind me and connected me to the sun in front of me.
My Faerie feet lifted. I call them that because they remind me of Irish dancing and my maternal Celtic ancestry. You have Faerie feet if you walk or stand naturally on the tips of your toes. I’ve been doing that since I learned to walk. Maybe children outgrow it; I didn’t. I even got teased in sixth grade for walking on my tippy-toes.
Back to the meditation. I saw the chakra rainbow as a flattened lp album and I was part of it. Now, if I get to choose which album it is (which I do because I’m writing this) it would be the second record of Led Zeppelin‘s Physical Graffiti double album because I used to play the first track of side 3, In the Light, repeatedly over and over when I was 13. More on that another time.
Oh, my! So much to write. Sorry about the tangent. Back to the subject at hand.
In my meditation, I saw the Green Fire.
I have never heard talk of the Green Fire and I will not even do a Google search until after I complete this. I don’t want my awareness to be colored. Yes, pun intended, so make sure that you do that ba-dum-bum-tss drum sound in your head.
The green fire in my vision is the energy burning through my own heart. Green is the color of the heart chakra, the color we associate with the Earth, just as blue is to the sky.
My internal programming is high visionary functioning. I think I just made that phrase up but that’s how I would describe it. I have what others call mystical experiences on a regular basis when I am connected with my Source.
When I am in disconnect, I fall into depression. That might be the same for you. Your disconnect may be anger. Or greed. Or hatred. You can pick your own deadly sin or add a new one to the list.
Whenever you, me, or anyone else is out of harmony with our true selves, we react instead of responding rationally to any situation.
We go into the darkness that is our shadow. I’ll write on this topic another time.
Anyway, back to my vision in my morning sungazing meditation.
The green fire separated into as ones and zeros. I went into the Matrix, the binary code that runs computers.
I saw the Matrix completely for what it is, an elaborate program, that was created to connect our disconnect. It’s also its opposite: a system that sucks us into it and disconnects us from our true Source, which is within.
When we were ready for this insight, it became available to us.
It’s part of our collective imagination. I thought I made that term up but it’s an actual documented term.
This is what we create collectively. It’s been going on since our arrival on this planet.
Wait! Did I just say arrival? Did I mean to say that, you think?
Anyway, there’s more to the Matrix thing and collective imagination and I’ll write about them at other times.
In my vision, I left the Matrix and ended up back in my own heart.
In the Light played as music in my head. I felt peaceful.
After a while, I spontaneously started repeating the phrase: I Am the Light, the Light I Am. I learned this mantra from Matt Kahn, a spiritual teacher whose wisdom corresponds to my inner knowing. His talks are filled with humor and insight.
Because my mind is so enmeshed with the Led Zeppelin song, it was a natural progression from that to repeating I Am the Light, the Light I Am.
The meditation ended with my hands on my heart and a feeling of being pure light.
Always,
Alice Always
