| Meditation: Path to the Soul The Light Page | by Suzie Black During the recent Venus Transit, I sat down to listen to my guides speak on some of the upcoming issues affecting all of us. The heart opening is leading us onto a path of union with the higher levels of ourselves with more speed than is usual. There is almost a quickening effect going on right now. This quickening has a couple effects: It leads us onto a stronger path of the heart, and eventually into a greater expression of life purpose. In readings I've noticed MANY people just blasting through deep, old issues, often with a lovely grace. It seems this summer is a ripe time to prepare for the changes that are coming. Many of these shifts are bringing great peace. One of the easiest ways to facilitate change is by meditating. If we do not go within, and seek answers upward, we often run into a discord between the "smaller self" and the higher self. The energy streams may not be coherent. Taken far enough, that discord can create a more desperate need for change. Often the Soul will bring in a crisis or wake-up-call to bring attention back to the higher nature. In my observation, crisis is always a message from the Soul. In seeking to navigate this Venus energy and its resultant openings designed to bring us more firmly onto our Soul's path, some form of meditation circumvents a need for any crisis. Essentially, we are learning to listen to the inner stillness, the whisperings of truth within. In its intrinsic form, meditation is simply a listening, but it brings us into contact with a greater truth. The energy of the Soul comes in through stillness. When the mind is clear and calm, the light of the Soul can come in and be interpreted. That information may come as intuitive feelings, dreams, visions or even information. One of the biggest challenges is to try to "get" information the way you want it. In doing so, the mind is rigid and searching, not soft and flexible and receptive. That approach just doesn't work. So a basic meditation practice must begin with an open idea of what "flavor" of communication is coming. Remember: Truth feels like you already know it. Looking for incredible "revelation" is not the best way to achieve peace. Look for what is there, and take one more step into receptivity. Risk, play and be adventuresome. There are other indications that the Soul wishes to come in more strongly, other than through crisis. Some of those may be: -- A desire for more time alone. -- Inclinations to eat better, or eat a more organic diet. -- Changes in sleep patterns. Sleeping hard early one night, and sleeplessness the next. If the changes are around a full moon, it definitely indicates a receptivity to higher energy. -- Inner contemplation, which is often interpreted as depression. It may or may not be. -- Twitching of the eyes or limbs indicating an activation of the nervous system. -- Tears coming from closed eyes, not with any emotion such as traditional crying. Just a release of light and energy through the nervous system. -- There also will be a natural search for peace, an avoidance of heavy emotions and the drama generated by the lower aspects of the human nature. It is in the stillness that the Soul can be heard. Meditation gives us the time to tune in to the higher truth and then find the light and power to act upon what is right for us. As we free ourselves from the lower vibratory nature, we find a new clarity. Psychic senses open, and we "know" more. We become less judgmental of others and begin to see their internal struggles. Instead of supplying "answers," we radiate peace and extend a trust that others will find their own answers. Sometimes we're drawn to take action, but often there is no action. More often, we contemplate what is the highest and best, and gain a deeper trust that everyone is on a path that is right for them. Out of all these actions comes a higher level of evolution, an ability to see beyond the appearances into deeper truths. We take better care of ourselves, and our energy becomes clearer and clearer. That clarity is essential for the flow of information of life purpose to come. As we gain clarity, we begin to get the energy to create an intention of how to get our purpose out into the world. Over time that intention grows and eventually draws to us the forms and motivation to go onto our path much more directly -- and with an ease that can be astonishing. Clarity creates the power to coalesce the energy to serve, to bring our light to the world. But the beginning place is the understanding that the Soul is trying to serve and bring us into its clear, still light as fast as we can acknowledge it. Meditation is the process of looking into that stillness. The result is great peace! Suzie Black of Hawkwind teaches advanced processes for meditation that evolve all levels of our energy.
