Page 1 of 2 Do you find it as fascinating as I do; the fad nature of human consciousness? Some new idea comes sweeping in and the whole population becomes obsessed. Large numbers of people flock to the stores to get the latest gizmo. They run to the doctors to determine whether they have the latest disease and they sign up to the latest network event to get the latest cure-all product.
We are a creature of unconsciousness, most having no clue what causes in them these hidden desires and urges that seem to drift over the globe like emotional weather fronts. Suddenly emotional weather patterns, lows and highs, collide and every person and their dog (miniature peek-a-poo) must have the latest iphone, join Mona Vie and get a new set of drapes for the living room. Why is this? Is it possible that emotions do exist like weather patterns? It would seem they do and when they are uplifting, when we are under the influence of a field of joy filled emotions then everything is wonderful in our lives. Today as I look outside preparing to go to the Centre I see that it is cloudy and cool with a little drizzle coming down. I think I will wear a hat and raincoat as I head off to the Centre today, maybe an extra layer because the heating system has not been completed. It is important for me to take care of my comfort needs, if I don’t then I know my day will not be as enjoyable. So recognizing that I will likewise be going out into emotional weather, how will I choose to dress up my consciousness in order to be comfortable? Well I might choose to do a little spiritual reading, maybe some creative visualization and a centering meditation, these things will all help. Most of all I will ensure that I am bringing my consciousness with me because I am pretty sure that this atmosphere of emotion around me as I move through the many situations of my day will vary immensely. Even on an off sort of day different groups of people seem to be more buoyant than others and I, like all of us, am capable of sensing that. When I enter those stormy groups I generally check in with myself and ensure I am appropriately dressed with an extra layer of loving presence. One group of people who do this well are sales people, those ones who always know exactly what it is you are looking for, they are trained to be particularly sensitive to moods.
