The idea of creating an energy template for my day really has me thinking. It's one of those back burner ideas that I find myself chewing on at the oddest times, like while fast forwarding through commercials, taking out the trash, and between bites of my dinner. It's an important idea, and I think it is the nexus of several things I've been thinking about or learning over several years.
A year ago, I retook the Reiki III (personal mastery) course because I realized I hadn't been using that level of it regularly. I was sitting there among new learners, people who were eager to learn it, and me having had it 10 years earlier only to let it slip away. It was an interesting day for me, and one where I was asking some big questions (ha, no surprise there).
The answer I got that day, the single thing I wrote on my notepad for the day, was that having a daily routine of working with energy grounded it. I realize that I'm a sort of nexus for the spiritual and physical worlds. I can use my daily living to ground the spiritual energy, imbuing matter with life, and at the same time, adding a sort of weight to the spiritual essence so it sticks close to the ground.
This idea of consciously living my life aware of my energy and driving my day by it is not a new one, but my understanding of why and what it is about is certainly greater than ever before.
I'm really glad that I haven't just drafted a mental plan for how to do this, you know, an hour at the computer writing up a document and then filling in a schedule. I do think there will be schedule made at some point, but after I feel my way through this a bit more. I need more discovery time, and I'm taking it.
In the meantime, I'm suddenly wondering if some of the stranger events of my last few days are a direct result of this intention. Walking through life passing forward in time, it seems as if puzzle pieces are floating around me, like I'm navigating shards of meaning that connect together like puzzle pieces, but I can't see it from this perspective. That's what my writing is for, right? To help me see things in a different context, and to let me sift back through the highlights when I know more and can see the build-up happening long after the crash has taken place.
