Balancing the Light & Dark Within – Creator Consciousness
As human beings, we are comprised of Spirit, Heaven (Light) and Flesh, Earth (Dark). Light does not mean positive and dark does not mean negative, they simply represent opposites, or polarities. When we balance these polarities of both light and dark, we become “conscious” bringing more awareness to how we use our minds, to our behaviors and actions in the world and how our actions affect everything in the beautiful, intricate web of the world.
However, both the Light and the Dark aspects can become imbalanced, which leads to a negative expression of that nature. This will manifest as an external imbalance, in the larger world around us. The external world is a reflection of our internal world, which is why it’s so important for each of us to do our own work to be integrated and whole. There may be periods where we become imbalanced, where we live in this opposite for a while, so that we can move toward and learn what it truly means to be balanced, by first experiencing the imbalance.
A person who is imbalanced in their Light nature – too Light, is the Victim or the Bleeding Heart. They are needy, has constant guilt, is too meek, gets exploited/abused, feels helpless or hopeless and is too vulnerable. This is someone who has not realized their own power, value or worth. To balance this, a person must learn to stand up for themselves and come to understand their value and worth in order to harness and wield their power in a healthy way. They must learn not to become too self-sacrificing at their own expense. This individual needs to develop strong boundaries, not “leak” their energy and give their power away to others. They need to find their own “voice” and to exert their influence in the larger world around them, knowing that they are enough and that their voice matters. They must learn to use their new found power to transform the Victim into the Creator.
A person who is imbalanced in their dark nature and is too Dark, is The Abuser or Predator. One who is greedy, over-indulges in addictive behavior, is controlling, violent, overly-competitive, jealous, homophobic, racist, ruthless, and lacks an inner world. This is someone who misuses their power in order to get what they want at all costs and at the expense of others. They are disconnected from their own hearts and Spirit. To balance this, the individual must learn humility, compassion, respect, kindness, caring, seek to understand the other, assume responsibility for their own actions rather than blame, connect with their own hearts and connect with Mother Earth and the web of all life. They need to seek to become a Creator that loves life rather than a Destroyer, that annihilates everything in its path.
As you can see in the news in the U.S.A., some of the Abusers / Predators are being outed. However, the American government seems to be exempt from their predatorial behavior as they run rampant over the American people, enacting laws that serve the greedy few while the masses are left out in the cold. This cycle of Predator/Victim has been in place in the world for a very long time. Cast your mind back to the Kingdoms and the serfs in the Medieval era. It is really no different from those days. Remember, it is always darkest before the dawn. What is needed now, is for each individual to balance their dark and light nature, as well as their feminine and masculine energies, to overcome fear and to step into our Creator Consciousness. To honor the Divine Self within and use our free will to create something Beautiful from a place of love.
The Creator knows his/her power as a Master who walks on the earth, a Divine Being of Light in Human form. The Creator creates from a place of love, respect and compassion for all living beings, the environment and knows its connection to the great Spirit. The Creator works within the Laws of the Universe and is not victim to what is happening in the world, rather, they are harnessing their God-given power which was bestowed upon them, with intention, to create harmony and justice using free will.
To know balance, one can whole-heartedly ask the Universe this question, “What do I need to let go of to correct this imbalance?” In other words, “Where am I resisting? And what do I need to stop resisting for balance to be restored?” Resistance is fear, so whatever you fear you are resisting, which continues to draw that which you fear, toward you. For example, a person who is a victim is afraid of their own power, which they seek from others. The victim can let go of seeking power from outside of themselves. Once they cease to seek power from external sources, and look within themselves for the resources they seek, they will come to know the power that is within them, their own inner God-Self and the balance will be corrected.
God created the Universe and there are certain Spiritual Laws for us to abide by in order to live in harmony. When we understand, obey and respect these spiritual laws, we will know peace. That takes 7 billion souls doing this simultaneously. With this perspective, it becomes clear why we need to wake up, do the work and help each other. This subject is worthy of a book, which I’m planning on writing…
Once we become balanced and whole, and walk on the Earth as a Creator (not The Creator), it doesn’t matter what is happening around us, we can hold our center and make choices that support this balance. This is the goal… Balance and wholeness, love and harmony, creation and health. Balance equals harmony. Harmony equals Peace. And Peace is freedom. We all want to be free, liberated from that which binds us.
