We all seem to dealing with a lot of tension these days. This year had a guarantee to be a spiritual test for everyone, and the Universe certainly delivered on that promise (tee hee)! Between the ridiculous, divisive election, the current earth-energy patterns, and the ongoing challenge for survival, we have all been tested on some level.
Merriam-Webster defines tension as the condition or degree of being stretched to stiffness. Oh, that is rich (lol)! Tension is either of two balancing forces causing, or tending to cause, extension or inner striving, unrest, or imbalance, often with physiological indication of emotion. That is a great explanation! Tension is a balance maintained in an artistic work between opposing forces, or a state of latent hostility or opposition between individuals or groups (uh huh).
In a recent reading, the angels were whispering that tension was a sign of a closed heart. They gave the client tools to use when facing that challenge. But what else can cause tension in the body, mind, or spirit? If we can recognize the source, does that provide a path toward peace? Questions are mounting. I can tell by the tension (tee hee), which most of you recognize as a sign that it is time for a whisper from the angelic realm:
Energetic blocks in any dimension of the human energy systems will ultimately form tension likely to collect around the heart. When this occurs, for many it shows up as back pain or transfers to the weakest location in the body. Stress, in its many forms, signals danger. The ego mechanism is called into service, and the heart responds by putting up a shield of protection. The result is a system that is on guard, unable to balance, and holding tension.
Tension is a sign of opposing forces that are meeting each other. When your core vibrations are chaotic and unable to flow smoothly, a reaction or response is created to oppose your real or imagined threat. Anxiety enters the equation due to the effect on the lower chakras, especially the root and sacral, and tension is formed due to static energy.
Chaotic and disorganized energy can be entrained through the environment or from people through the imprint of vibrations that hold negative emotions, such as fear, anger, hatred, disgust, and shame. The Earth can hold energies of stress that are felt by sensitive beings, but hard to interpret or identify as to the nature of the source. Humans are wired to take on energy in such a way that precludes the possibility of an external source as the culprit. This serves to further the tension through lack of discernment or disconnection from God or Source.
Whenever you feel tension, your body is sending a message that your help is needed, a signal of the need for self-care. Create a visual of the door to your heart opening and a rainbow of light coming out of that door and moving upward. This will lift the light of love inherent in all living beings, and lift your energy into the higher self where connection to Source is made. Meditate and visualize happiness, peace, abundance, safety, and wisdom. Exercise, get plenty of restorative rest, and eat healthy foods.
The energy of pure love moving through the human body relieves tension.
Bring joy, ease suffering and create beauty, then dance like you mean it!
Blessings, Russell
“How we present ourselves at any given time is dependent on the situation. We constantly balance the tension of high aspirations with the pragmatism of realistic expectations. The key is to represent ourselves in such a way that we can fulfill the expectations we create.”
