How is Your Enchanting Life Today?
Outside in
If you are one of
Every city has a flavour, a
mythology and a set of scripts. Each city creates its own particular Enchantment.
Your Life takes place within a
landscape and that landscape feeds you subliminally. Every city, every country,
has an all-pervasive quality that creates the background to your life. How can
that be? Well, when we are talking about communities on any scale from country
to village, we are of course talking about its people, and it really is true to say that ‘no man is an island’. Your
deep unconscious is the collective unconscious, as borne out by the universal interpretation
of our dream symbols and Jungian synchronicity.
Both the human environment and the
natural environment are being read and scanned by your pattern-making
subconscious mind, which limits and cajoles you into a certain neurological
zone, or state of mind. Think of the megabytes upon megabytes of information
that is encoded into your 3-dimensional world—sounds, smells, language, passing
conversation you barely hear, body language, advertising, styles of dress,
street markets, traffic, hills, water, birds, trees and, of course in Hong Kong,
the magnificent cityscape with its frenetic mix of multicultural corporate
sheen with the whiff of Ancient China, the temples, ancestors and tradition of
trading in this pivotal Asian port.
Inside out
Are you aware how your day is
created? When you wake up in the morning what pictures are on the walls of your
bedroom? Are there magazines on the floor? Do you keep books in your bedroom?
What colour are your walls? Is the room cluttered? Do you put the radio on, and
if so what is the first thing you heard today? What did the DJ say or what were
the lyrics of the song?
Your intelligence is vast—far more
than you realise. Your mind has absorbed it all and is creating patterns out of
the data you are feeding yourself.
What costume are you putting on? How
do your clothes define the role you will play today—starting with your
underwear? Do you feel good putting it on? Now, breakfast; what alchemy are you
creating within yourself with that breakfast cereal, what moods do your foods
create? How is your lover today; did she or he affirm your success?
Your life is an art form, an Enchantment.
Your internal world and your external world are in constant communication with
each other. If you put yourself in a room it will affect you—it will make you
see the world in a certain way. If you put yourself in the company of a
positive person, think how powerful that message is to who you are and what you
want to achieve. You are an information sponge and transmitter far more
sophisticated than any piece of technology yet created. How sexy is that and
how dare you sell yourself short?
What seeds have you planted in
your subconscious? These seeds will grow and become your conscious mind, your
attitudes and your feelings for the day. The 4th dimension is your inner world,
which controls the speed of your day, the speeding up and slowing down of time.
If you are having an exciting time, time runs away; if you are having an awful
time, time drags heavy. When you are feeling centred, calm and clear, notice
how you feel time-rich. A true master of time can write a good commentary on
the life around and within them. Be conscious in the whirlwind of modern life;
step into the still, calm eye of the storm; observe what is going on within and
around you; and create the life you want.
The world will look a certain way
today. Do you want to change your world? Do you want to change your life?
