Earth energy: how to run it and stop

The idea at the heart of this classEarth and cosmic energy

Earth and cosmic energy A tall standing figure, split light and dark, stands on four horizontal strata of earth in green, ochre, terracotta and plum, under three hanging bands of sky in lilac, blue and pale rose. All the strata and bands breathe slowly in and out, the layers nearest the figure moving furthest and each a little behind the one before. First two green lines rise from a gold star at the earth's center into each foot and climb each leg to the base of the spine, a soft green glow rising from the strata behind them, and spill down a cord, while the strata drift sideways at different rates. Then the earth flow is stopped: the foot flowers shrink, light runs down the cord and out, the strata stand still, and a gold sun above the head drops light into the crown. Then the crown opens part way, inside a dotted ring that marks fully open, and two channels of pale blue pearls bring light down from a pale blue glow above the head, thinning to fine chains through the body to the base, while the sky bands drift. Then the strata and bands push outward and keep breathing, and both flows blend at a flower at the base, rise up the front, fountain out from the crown to the edge of the sky and branch to the hands. Last, the walls of every channel change color, twice, while the light inside them keeps its own.

This class’s practice

Run earth energy, then stop

6 steps, playing in turn. Choose a number to hold one.

Ground, then bring attention to the aura's edge, through the forehead into the head center, and ground your space.

00:34 to 02:07

Move attention to the arches of your feet. These chakras open and close all day; open them fully, like a camera lens.

02:07 to 03:23

Two lines of earth energy rise from the earth's center, one to each foot chakra, and spin there. It is heavy and nurturing.

04:00 to 05:12

Let it fill the feet and rise through calves, knees, thighs and first chakra, then fall down the grounding in one cycle.

05:12 to 07:28

To stop, tune the feet chakras down toward normal (about 20 to 25 percent) and ground the earth energy out.

08:00 to 08:32

Sit in the center of your head under a gold sun and let it fill face, body, legs and aura, noticing how you feel.

Basics 5.1, 02:07 to 09:07

Earth rises from the feet, cosmic descends from the crown, and the blend circulates.Earth channels, one up each leg Cosmic channels, pearls down the back The blend: up the front, a fountain, the hands The earth: strata drift while it runs The wall and core of each channel are drawn apart to show the straw-and-drink distinction. Every color only tells parts apart; the person's own channel color is theirs to choose.
Earth energyUp from the feetTwo lines from the earth's center climb the legs to the first chakra.
Cosmic energyDown from the crownTwo channels in the back, from a crown opened only as far as is comfortable.

Do not confuse channel color, guide gold or personal gold sun with the neutral flows themselves.

Open the foot chakras, run earth energy up the legs and down the grounding cord, then turn it down and refill with your own energy.

Prepare and locate the feet

Ideas hereAura and layersChakrasGrounding

Start with a grounding cord from the first chakra to the center of the earth. It gives safety, communication and a release route. If the cord feels wrong, destroy it and make another in a color, shape or image that works.

Bring attention back from wherever it has been. Place it at the edge of the aura, bring it through the forehead, and settle into the center of the head. From there, push the space around the body out a little behind, to each side, in front, above and below. Ground that space too.

Then move attention down through the torso, legs and feet. In the arches of the feet are minor chakras. They open and close throughout the day. Walking may open them more. Sitting at a desk may leave them less open. They can be adjusted by intention.

Open the feet chakras fully, like the inside of a camera lens opening to one hundred percent. Then return attention to the center of the head and notice how the body responds.

Receive and cycle

Ideas hereChakrasEarth and cosmic energyGrounding

Feet chakras receive earth energy. From the point where you ground at the center of the earth, draw two lines of earth energy upward, one to each foot chakra. Let the energy spin in the feet.

Earth energy is heavy in a nurturing, real and stabilizing way, not in a negative way. It helps the body feel more real. If you get spacey, breathe more or widen the grounding.

Run the lower circuit in order:

  1. Let earth energy fill the feet: toes, heels, arches, muscles and bones.
  2. Let it rise to the ankles.
  3. Draw it through the calves to the knees.
  4. Let it move through the upper legs and thighs.
  5. Bring it into the first chakra.
  6. Let it spin there.
  7. Let it fall down the grounding cord and return to the earth.

This is a cycle, not a storage tank. Fresh energy rises from the earth, moves through the lower body, reaches the first chakra and releases back down. The point is movement. Stuck or unmoving energy begins to shift.

Stopping belongs with learning to start

Ideas hereAura and layersChakrasEarth and cosmic energyGold

Learning to run earth energy includes learning to stop. Say hello to the feet chakras and turn them down from fully open to about seventy percent, then halfway, then toward a normal setting, around twenty to twenty-five percent. Any setting you choose is workable.

Stop drawing earth energy in and let what remains ground back out. Then sit in the center of the head under a gold sun. Fill the face, body, legs and aura with your own energy.

Earth energy can heal and move the body, but it is not the same as your personal life force. End by noticing how the body feels after the movement and after the gold refill.

The guided practice runs from 00:00:06 to 00:09:22. Do it whole, from the preparation through the return. It uses tools from earlier lessons.

No explicit eyes-open return. Percentages are imaginative operating settings in the teaching, not measured biological aperture.
