I Gotta Feeling!

So consciousness unfolds and we become increasingly aware of ourselves in the workings of the physical world.  The Fourth Ray of Consciousness begins to reveal itself to us as Passion.  The person we have become finds a fire within that drives us and motivates us towards what would fulfill our purpose.  This powerful force, when focused and directed by an idea, goal or dream, can turn a thought into something solid and real.

You may begin to see that as these Five Rays of Consciousness are not only understood, but embraced and expressed clearly through us, that we truly are powerful beyond measure and anything we can dream is possible. The First Ray—Remembering, allows us to connect to the fabric of the universe, recall our past and see why it is exactly what we needed to develop the unique gifts that our soul was sent to Earth with.  The Second Ray—Trust, gives us the faith that all souls are good and everything is in fact perfect.  This ray, when unobstructed, shows us how we attract exactly who and what we need into our lives.  The Third Ray—Identity, brings the awareness that, while we fulfill many roles, they are not who we are.  We have the power to be whoever we must be to serve ourselves and our purpose here.  The Fourth Ray—Passion, gives us the emotional leverage to persevere and bring our purpose to life.  Which finally leads to the expression of the Fifth Ray—Prosperity, which is the enjoyment of the abundance we create in our lives through this powerful process of manifestation.

Returning to the Fourth Ray, our passion is the critical element which brings in the energy necessary to give life to a dream.  Without passion, dreams are just dreams, and thoughts are merely thoughts.  They simply swirl around in our mind to be dreamed and thought of, again and again.  But when we add passion to the equation and let the emotion surge through us, it disrupts all thoughts other than those that will bring us closer to our desire.

We constantly have feelings and they can run us if we let them.  Life is all about doing things that bring on the good feelings and avoiding the things that make us feel bad.  Our minds do a great job of helping us to pick actions and behaviours that will make us feel good and safe while avoiding those that bring us out of our comfort zone and make us scared and insecure.  At a subconscious level, if we simply believe our minds, we will think that we are so smart and that we know how everything works.  We have no doubt as to what we can and can’t do and that some things are utterly impossible.  These beliefs and presumptions keep our emotions in a range of safety and therefore our behaviours, thoughts and lives also stay in the same range.

Passion and the conscious mind can often find themselves at odds because passion is very dangerous to keeping things the same and secure.  Passion makes us want to do whatever it takes to get something.  We will change whatever we have to.  We tell our minds to take a hike and let our hearts lead us.  Your mind will tell you that this is very dangerous and you will get in trouble if you do that.  And it is right, because your life as you know it will have to fall apart if you follow your heart.  The beautiful thing is that as the new thoughts and behaviours emerge and the old ones fall away, the life you know gives way to the life you dreamed of.

Emotions are incredibly powerful.  They can build and topple nations.  They can build or crush your dreams.  If you put all your trust into your mind in order to keep yourself feeling safe, you will ultimately find yourself run by fear of the perceived dangers of changing anything.  However, if you trust that your heart knows your purpose, you will find a desire and passion that will overcome any obstacle.  This is the consciousness of the Fourth Ray and it is energetically supported by the Emotional Energetic Intelligence.

The most important thing to do when you’ve got a feeling is to feel it.  Feelings change your actions.  If the feeling scares you into being safe, it’s not passion.  If it makes you do things that you’ve never done to get the things you don’t yet have, then you have a good feeling!
