THE HOLOGRAPHIC RAINBOW, Part 3 … The Solar Plexus Chakra Vortex

The third chakra vortex (our solar plexus) is all about identity and power in one’s environment. The first chakra vortex provided the group environment of survival and cultural conditioning. The second chakra vortex started pulling away from safety in order to begin establishing one’s own identity … into a plethora of relationships which mirror back our actions for learning and growth.

Now we move into the third chakra vortex where relationships become more formalized and address again the group conditioning that we started with – this time not from helpless dependence but with a critical eye toward what serves us and what doesn’t. Our ego and will power are being developed, based on the emotional identity beginnings in the second chakra vortex.

The formal groups are further defined as birth family, marriage family, work family, community, etc.  These structures are very powerful and catalytic in our daily lives. Carla Rueckert puts it this way:  “When people live together or work together on a daily basis over a long period of time, the family acts like a house of mirrors. Family interaction can make us feel judgmental concerning another family member. This judgment shows us our own shadow side …  Familiarity can become over-familiarity. We can take each other for granted. We can sometimes descend into enjoying petty grievances and indulging in chronic sniping.” ¹

Families of all types often provide great challenges and are a great gift of reflection and evolution for balancing and integrating those issues we have chosen to address in this lifetime:  “We only get aggravated by the things others do to us when they are also issues we have not developed and redeemed within ourselves. Family members thusly offer us catalyst that allows us to face and resolve these issues. And we will not resolve them until we can love them, just as they are. Since we are one, such catalyst also asks us to acknowledge and work with those issues of our own dark side.”  ²

“We cannot change anything unless we accept it.

Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses.”  ³

Carl Jung

Master Charles Cannon’s explanation of the individuation process shows how we can develop our will power to address our mirrored beliefs for greater evolution: 

• “Our unconscious mind (and its unconscious distractions) must be made conscious because it is dictating, flavoring our experience. We have to make the unconscious conscious — the whole of our database.  We have to make it conscious so that we can dis-identify from illusory limiting data. Then, detached and wakeful, we can choose who to be, moment-by-moment. We can hold the reins of our experience rather than our unconscious database.” ⁴

There are two wings of the dove of peace … one is grace and the other is effort. When we take a positive step toward an awakened, holistic lifestyle, we are supported in our intention by the grace of the one source consciousness. More and more truthful choices appear and life becomes magical and miraculous.

Grace can also be seen in the quantum mechanics application of the “string theory,” which is the most convincing model yet that proves the oneness of all and everything. Just imagine the torus energy field that surrounds each of us as surging electromagnetic attraction and repulsion frequencies catalyzing our unconscious intentions and beliefs. Our responses then send information-laden frequencies back through the torus field, setting the stage for the next download of catalysts. If we’ve made the unconscious conscious, then the next download will be different than it would have been (and much easier).

We receive grace from universal consciousness in the form of life and opportunity but it’s also up to us to “grace ourselves.” So, the two wings in this balancing act are effort and grace.  Life is really so simple … “what goes around, comes around” or “what you give is what you get.”  All we ever see are holographic mirrors; all we ever experience is ourselves.

 “Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t–you’re right.” ⁵

Henry Ford

And, if you’re really serious about human mastery, you’ll find an authentic master spiritual teacher. They will facilitate even more grace appearing in your life due to their resonance with illuminating universal frequencies that empower everything in their extended and powerful torus energy field (including you).

Other issues in the third chakra include sexuality, always active in the first three chakras. It is first experienced as lust in the first chakra, then as diffusive personal relationships in the second chakra, and now as more formalized relationships in the third.  Sometimes the egoic power of dominance rears its ugly head. To possess or to be possessed is a major catalyst in the human journey and can result in much fear. Sometimes situations result in shame, which is “the demon of the third chakra ….. antithetical to self-esteem and personal power.” ⁶

Metabolism of the body is also ruled by the third chakra with its ever-present fiery nature. The digestive system is a major factor in the balance of energy (strength or weakness). Good intentions cannot be actualized when the energy isn’t there to support it. The basic right of the third chakra, according to Anodea Judith, is the “right to act” and balance in the body is needed to fulfill that right.

Thus, the third chakra is a center of profound power and can either be used to evolve to the transformative heart or block it and keep its power in density through story-telling, which maintains unrelenting cycles of unresolved issues and suffering. According to Carla Rueckert, “our primary job is to develop the lower three chakras with a fierce and ruthless will.” ⁷  Since will power is such a critical development, for good or ill, it’s important to recognize it in ourselves and steer the energy into a form of positive, “grace-full” determination to consciously evolve.

In our first three chakras, our polarized human nature fluctuates considerably more than the chakra vortexes from the heart upwards. Often there are wide swings here between over-stimulation and desire for avoidance. An under-active third chakra tends to manifest as:  “Passivity, lack of energy, poor digestion, tendency to be cold, tendency toward submission, blaming, low self-esteem/lack of confidence, weak will/ poor self-discipline, use of stimulants.” ⁸  The over-active traits are:  “dominating, controlling, competitive, arrogant, ambitious, hyperactive, stubborn, driven (compulsively focused toward goals), attracted to sedatives.” ⁹

It’s helpful to remember to keep a constant focus on keeping the energy flowing through our energy channels. This can be more easily remembered when that intent is attached to the intent to watch our breath—moment-to-moment— in the awareness of our oneness with all that we observe.

The Synchronicity Socratic Process of Inquiry has been created by Master Charles Cannon as a method for recognizing and disempowering the illusory “stories” in our lives. As he often says, “events happen and then there are the stories we tell about those events.” This explains how our stories – whether they are accurate recollections of something that happened in fact or not – are turned into illusions by our minds. The resulting reality is not real; it is virtual. Using the Socratic Process to dismantle our illusory stories (and the virtual reality they have fabricated) begins to create a truthful reality instead.

To help clear the third, solar plexus chakra vortex, it is helpful to ask the questions below and then do the Synchronicity Socratic Process on them … revealing their illusory beginnings and habitual maintenance. Once this awareness dawns, we see that we have co-created the movies of our lives, with all their harmony and conflict. This can leave us awestruck in the presence of one source consciousness. At that point, all that’s left is to ask: “What remains in the stillness of a mind?”
