I am writing this when December is already ending and Christmas lights will go off in a week. However, I feel this is the right time for me to write and call on everyone to light our inner Christmas Lights in gratitude.
Celebrating Christmas
Christmas means – celebration or gathering for Light. Esoterically, when we think about the birth of Christ, we are referring to the birth of Christ consciousness within us. The Christ consciousness is the consciousness that allows us to serve humanity and the earth, to live through unconditional love, and be connected to our Divine Creator and our True Essence.
Christ means Light and symbolically the Christmas lights and lanterns are meant to remind us of the Light within our Soul. So, much living for material survival for the year that we are asked to end the year by connecting to our Light – our Soul. Celebrate the Light comes with joy and gratitude. This is the season about merry-making.
Gratitude For the Light
While we can all be looking on the lights around us during Christmas, let us now look at the lights
within
us in gratitude.
The lights within us are in our chakras or energy centers. They are our Christmas lights when lit up and
activated. They all come with gifts. Let us now light these all up in gratitude.
Step One:
Think of the present moment.
Your first light is the Base Energy Center. This is about your life and the
strength to live here on earth. You are alive. You thrived through the
pandemic.
Touch your tailbone on your
lower back. Close your eyes and imagine a red color shining brightly on your
tailbone down towards your feet. Thank God for the present moment. Be grateful
for being on this earth. Thank the Divine God for your life. Continue to feel
the gratitude. When you feel satisfied, you may open your eyes.
Step Two:
Think about your gifts, your
talents, your work, and your sustenance. Your second light is the Sacral Energy
Center. This is about your sustenance – money, work, creation, and many others.
Place your hands on the lower
part of your abdomen, below the navel. Close your eyes and imagine an orange
aura shining on the lower part of your stomach. Thank God for all that you have
received to sustain your physical needs. Thank God for your talents and
wholeness as a person in the family and the community. When you feel satisfied,
you may open your eyes.
Step Three:
Think about your strengths.
How did they manifest in facing life this year? Your third light is the Solar
plexus, located two inches above your navel.
Place your hands on the upper
part of your stomach, above the navel. Close your eyes and imagine a yellow
aura shining on these area of your stomach. Thank God for your strength to face
challenges. Thank God for your determination to move forward in life. Thank God
for teaching you how to transform fear into courage and worries into
inspiration. When you feel satisfied, you may open your eyes.
Step Four:
some have hurt you but left you with lessons. Your fourth light is your Heart Chakra in the center of your chest.
Place your hand on heart. Close your eyes and imagine a pink aura shining in the center of your heart. Thank God for love and relationships. Thank God for the lessons of love and giving. Open yourself to give and receive. When you feel satisfied, you may open your eyes.
Step Five:
Think about your life path.
Life path is our expression. Your fifth light is our Throat Chakra. Your center
for communication.
Place your heart on your
throat. Close your eyes and imagine a blue aura shining on your throat. Thank
God for your spoken words. Thank God for the path of life that you are taking.
Thank God for words of love and encouragement. When you feel satisfied, you may
open your eyes.
Step Six:
Think about the vision that
you see about our life in general. Do you see the darkness and the light as
one? Do you receive inspiration? Do you believe in the seen and unseen
realities of life? Your sixth light is your Forehead Chakra, your center for
illumination and vision.
Place your hand on your
forehead. Close your eyes and imagine an indigo aura shining on your forehead.
Thank God for understanding. Thank God for seeing the light and beauty amidst
the darkness. Thank God for understanding life beyond the physical senses. When
you feel satisfied, you may open your eyes.
Step Seven:
Feel your connection to our
Divine Creator. Do you trust the unknown future? Do you feel supported by the
cosmos? Your seventh light is the crown center, the way to reclaim our Divinity
as a creation of God.
Place your hand on your crown.
Close your eyes and imagine a violet aura on your crown. Thank God for your
beingness. Thank God for the Divinity within you.
Last Step:
Feel the seven lights within you shining in gratitude.
Your Christ-mas lights are now shining.
Christ-mas is about gathering for Christ, the Light. Let our light shine in gratitude. Let is shine brightly welcoming the New Year!
