The Space Within

I don’t know why directionality is important to me, but it is. The same is true of point of origin. Given that directionality follows point of origin, I suppose it makes sense. I wrote something about shielding a while back where I talked about spreading my energy apart, allowing vampiric energy to pass through, instead of latching on the way it tends to do. It’s too easy to absorb that energy if you don’t stay in some kind of control, and it’s pretty draining. There are various methods an empath uses to deal with invasive energy from others. This method is in lieu of putting up an energy barrier of sorts because most vampires are just needy people for one reason or another. They’re not all predatory, it’s mostly just boundary issues. This way felt more allowing and compassionate than some of the other more forceful ways of shielding. Of course, at the end of the day, do whatever it takes. You can’t help anyone if you’re soggy with their energy.

In a real sense, it’s moving into the observer role, stepping away from your physical presence and remaining at your still point, in alignment with Source. And maybe it’s not that the invasive or vampiric energy passes through us, but that we simply don’t feel it when we bring our awareness to the space within. Hearing terms like oversoul might create the impression that our nonphysical selves exist around or outside of us. But if you consider the force of creation, it seems to move from a central point outward. Directionality again. When we retreat, become quiet, I think we move to the space between the elements of form, where the present moment and the creative force reside. Or perhaps it’s even further inward, in the place before the present moment, where all creative possibility exists. In either case, it’s a place the ego cannot reach. It’s a place of perfect safety and love.

As we align with Source instead of our physical presence, our resonance remains high, and in so doing, the sticky vampiric energy finds no purchase. It takes someone to receive, i.e. absorb, that energy for it to be destructive. When aligned, it’s far easier to remain unaffected because there’s no room for judgment in that state. And engaging with a energy vampire takes a certain amount of judgment in order to figure out what they’re actually doing. It’s better to feel the change in energy, recognize the discomfort for what it is and move directly toward alignment because absorbing vampiric energy is exhausting. You don’t want to spend time analyzing any of it because it will suck the life out of you before you even realize it’s happening. Oh, you’ll think you can stay in control, but trust me, you’re only fooling yourself. Of course if you’re already in an aligned state, you won’t experience the disturbance at all. That really is your best protection from judging others anyway. In that resonance, you experience everyone as holy extensions of Source Energy, in perfect Oneness with all. What they happen to be doing at the time becomes irrelevant to the larger reality of who they truly are.

As you sit quietly, see yourself as a body of energy. Allow the form to relax and let go of its agreed upon shape. See the “energy cells” of your body move apart. Feel the clarity of the space between and within. Feel its resonance as the projected world falls away, replaced by the world seen through the loving eyes of Source. There is no judgment here in this space within. Everything simply is, neither right or wrong, good or bad. It simply is. Allow the resonance of Source Energy to emanate forth as you remember your reality as One with all expressions in physical form.

Bringing our focus to the space within also brings us to our most creative potential. Here, we’re unsullied by the ego’s perception of things. Instead we see through the loving eyes of Source, which typically turns out better for everyone concerned. We just have to remember to choose that option instead of the messier one. Shielding assumes there’s something to be shielded from and that involves judgment. In alignment, we stay out of that sticky energy and create the world around us as the extensions of Source Energy that we are. Create from the space within, instead of from the world without. Create from that perspective, instead of from the egoic one and see what happens.
