These are two impulses moving in opposite directions, yet balance comes in having both impulses operate simultaneously with equal strength.<\/p>\n<p>This equilibrium represented by the Star of David is in constance flux for all of us. It is a delicate balance for us to be grounded in our physical lives while also fully open to our identities as spiritual beings.<\/p>\n<p>We all know some who, for now, have shut the door on seeking upwards and outwards. \u00a0Perhaps at points in our lives, it has been us. We can&#8217;t always fully know what suffering has led us or others to dig in and close down to anything but life in a body. All we can do is send \u00a0love and compassion. What a sorrow that any of us have lost our \u00a0joy and the desire to embrace life&#8217;s great unfolding mysteries.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenhopeessences.com\/wordpress\/wp-contents\/upload\/2019\/12\/IMG_0149.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3549 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greenhopeessences.com\/wordpress\/wp-contents\/upload\/2019\/12\/IMG_0149-e1575298988576-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"474\" height=\"632\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.greenhopeessences.com\/wp-contents\/upload\/2019\/12\/IMG_0149-e1575298988576-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.greenhopeessences.com\/wp-contents\/upload\/2019\/12\/IMG_0149-e1575298988576-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Sometimes trials and tribulations can lead us in the other direction so we are not present in our physical bodies or physical lives. Sometimes it can feel safer to not be physically present down in the mud of the whole messy experience we call life on Earth..<\/p>\n<p>One thing that has been a constant in my guidance from Divinity is the encouragement to try and be as grounded to my physical life as possible versus pulling out of my physical life to leave \u00a0just a toe in the water.<\/p>\n<p>Since we are spiritual beings having a physical experience not visa versa, it makes sense that we might not always want to ground ourselves fully here. It makes sense that having just the toe in the water might feel more comfortable and safe. It can be painful to be grounded in a place that doesn&#8217;t hold the light and high vibrations we are used to from our existence off the planet.<\/p>\n<p>However&#8230;. one thing the Angels remind me is that it is much easier for us to move through painful events if we are fully in our bodies than if we are not. Why? Because when we are fully in our bodies we can fully move the healing light on offer from Divinity through our entire energy system so we can fully heal the situations we confront. When we are not fully in our bodies, we cannot do this.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, so I used fully about 80 times in that last paragraph.\u00a0 I guess the Angels want us to fully get this piece of guidance!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenhopeessences.com\/wordpress\/wp-contents\/upload\/2019\/12\/IMG_0256.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3550 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greenhopeessences.com\/wordpress\/wp-contents\/upload\/2019\/12\/IMG_0256-e1575299143719-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"474\" height=\"632\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.greenhopeessences.com\/wp-contents\/upload\/2019\/12\/IMG_0256-e1575299143719-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.greenhopeessences.com\/wp-contents\/upload\/2019\/12\/IMG_0256-e1575299143719-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This discomfort with being fully in our bodies is an issue especially for the children that are here or who are arriving right now.

Creative activities have this balance as well.<\/p>\n<p>It is helpful when we wear colors linked to the grounding energies of the lower chakras including red, brown, orange and yellow when we feel out of our bodies. Wearing pale pastels is helpful if we feel heavy with earthly sorrows and griefs.<\/p>\n<p>In meditation, the Star of David itself is a wonderful symbol to help you ground to the heart of the Earth while also opening to receive the love and light of source.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenhopeessences.com\/wordpress\/wp-contents\/upload\/2019\/12\/IMG_7645.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3548 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greenhopeessences.com\/wordpress\/wp-contents\/upload\/2019\/12\/IMG_7645-e1575299367266.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.greenhopeessences.com\/wp-contents\/upload\/2019\/12\/IMG_7645-e1575299367266.jpg 480w, https:\/\/blog.greenhopeessences.com\/wp-contents\/upload\/2019\/12\/IMG_7645-e1575299367266-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p>For more about this kind of energy work, see the blog called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenhopeessences.com\/wordpress\/?p=3250\">The Elementals Need You<\/a>\u00a0that talks about this energy balancing while also giving links to all the blogs I have written about energy balancing and clearing.<\/p>\n<p>The Elementals note here that any time you love the Earth, it helps birth the New Earth.<\/p>\n<p>Flower Essences are obviously a grounding tool I lean on.
