Human Elevation

There’s a time for healing and a time for renewal. There’s a time for safe expression and a time for grounding and re-centering in love and light. Elevation cannot be achieved without each and every one of these parts.

These are not steps to be followed in rational order—these are parts of a circle to be felt through and utilized with intuition and wisdom. Maybe not a circle, but that beautiful infinity loop I’ve brought up several times. A circle implies a cycle—something predictable, measurable, and never ending—while the infinity loop implies growth and mirrors space. It is space. It’s that giant breath of air and land that opens up creativity, offers magic, and allows without judgment. It’s that never ending sky that encompasses every religion and background, every spiritual piece of gold and open-ended sense of wonder that will forever take a person higher.

To strive for growth is the essence of life. To stop stubbornly and believe you have all the answers, or worse (much worse), to focus your loving attention on those who are set on descending is indeed to dull your own light. Truth must be brought to the surface, but then it is essential to align with those on higher planes and rising. There is no fight or pain on this path. Only fascinating communication, genuine care, and strengthening of both sets of wings.

There is power in the two sets. I’ve felt the power in both realms, one to ground, protect, and remain morally and awakely human, while the other set uplifts, carries magically, and connects to the most exciting feeling of creativity and endless possibilities. They mix, no doubt. There is no clear-cut outline to either set of wings. They take turns, as creative projects need to be grounded as well as flooded with light, and spirituality needs to be bright but also comfortingly dark like the moon. The wings glow no matter what. That is the embodiment of self-knowing, self-trust, self-love, and seeing the world not as your oyster, but as your home that you love with all your heart and desire every day to make safer and more beautiful for the deserving souls here: past, present, and beyond.

The beautiful quality of the infinity loop is that it carries forces toward, but also away. It has an intelligence of flow: smooth, non-violent, without blame, and entirely loving. Energies are recycled. Fear is replaced with safety, focus is shifted slightly, and suddenly, the world is beautiful again.

Let’s break down each part of the loop. They all serve a purpose and connect with each other:

Healing: Healing is a journey to self-love and self-knowing. It is a personal process that is different for everyone and does require tools. The preferred tools are unique to the individual. In healing, the insides need to be completely known, completely loved, and completely alchemized to work for the body, mind, and spirit, rather than against.

A healed person does not need and does not hurt. A healed person has the power to pick and choose, act consciously, and sense unhealed wounds in others. A healed person loves genuinely, both him/herself, as well as others. A healing person does not blame, but rather gains wisdom and strength from each mending wound, always with the intention of moving forward.

Renewal: Renewal is triumphant. Renewal is a flood of light poured forth, as one bursts free from all chains that previously were holding the spirit back from shining. Renewal is deep love and connection with nature, the universe, and God (source, light, highest self, whatever you want to call it). Renewal is seeing the shared light and love in everybody else, and realizing the bigger picture and the potential in everybody. Renewal is the ultimate cleanse.

Safe Expression: Safe expression is necessary. Safe expression is the release of what could have been a buried burden of trauma, and it is instead the emotional and spiritual alchemization of dark silence to clarity and relief. Safe expression needs to be done wisely, consciously, creatively, and always with the intention of gaining a strength, connecting with emotion and feeling, and ascending higher. Safe expression is life force energy that is essential for body, mind, and spirit connection.

Grounding and Re-centering in Love and Light: Grounding and re-centering brings the emotions back into the heart where they can be pumped through the blood stream, fully-oxygenated, and utilized for physical and internal nourishment and strength. Grounding makes all the spiritual human-accessible and practical again. Grounding is the steady point for re-centering in love and light. It is the tingly, free of thought, free of boundaries sensation that, without effort, reigns it all back in. Grounding gives the spirit a safe and secure home, and re-centering in love and light grants the spirit autonomy to walk in body, heart, and mind with all the best intentions, solid connection to self, and clearest focus.

These parts are all within you, as well as in the world. The more you connect to your own personal infinity loop, the more you become aware and connected to the infinity loop outside of yourself. Much like memories, experiences, places, and parts within that needed/need healing, so too does the world. The infinity loop is not about status quo. The infinity loop is all about steady and real positive change. Rushed, fast, and surface-level doesn’t work. The path to human elevation is slow and patiently loving, grateful, curious, fully-aware, and intrigued the whole way.
