Do you ever run into someone, do business with someone or have a fleeting friendship with someone that makes you wonder, “Why in the world have we been brought together?” Are they just random encounters? Meaningless contacts? For me, I personally don’t think so. I believe we are all here to clear the air with each other
Up close and personal with the warrior goddess within
As I’m painting, sometimes–okay a lot of times–I wonder what is the purpose of the connection between the recipient and I. What higher purpose is there that this person and I have been brought together to exchange energy? Ultimately, we will never know. Thankfully, we don’t need to know. All I am certain about is that I am doing my “cleaning” as I paint. Any memories that come up while I am painting, I offer them up to divinity to transmute with love so that the energy I am sending out is that of pure light. I do this by responding to the memories with “I love you. I’m sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you.” Not only am I saying those phrases, but I am admitting that I really don’t know what is going on in me or in the world. From each of our standpoints, we only have tiny pieces of the universal puzzle, and it seems absurd to me that we presume to “know” so many things based on the information passed on to us from others (who ultimately don’t “know” anything either!). Don’t get me wrong, while none of us ultimately “know” anything, as divine beings and physical representations of the spiritual whole, the oneness that we are, we also know everything there is for us to know on an intuitive level.
A closer look into expressing sensuality
So how does this relate to Aura Art, you may be wondering? Well for example, I did a painting recently for a woman. I did not know this woman (save for reading some of her posts on a forum) and I had only a few bits of information on what kind of colors and such she might like to see in her painting. I had a few images pop into my mind of what color combinations and possible patterns might appear on the canvas. As I started painting, I had a memory pop up in my mind. It involved a time and scenario when I felt violated and ashamed of my inner sensuality and sexuality. Negative emotions replayed in my mind for a second, and I did not enjoy the energy. I worried for a second that this energy was going into the painting, or maybe it was coming from the recipient, who knows? Either way, I appealed to divinity, asking “What is it in me that I am experiencing the replay of this memory? I am sorry for whatever I have done in part to create this, and thank you for the opportunity to clear it. I trust that divinity knows what needs healing, and will transmute this energy to pure light. I love you. Thank you.” I continued for awhile, and gradually felt the energy shift. It was not sudden, or like a huge “Aha!” moment, it was subtle. When I let go and let the universe be the one to handle it, then I began to feel relief. Insights slowly started flowing in. I knew what I needed to do in the moment, and I felt great healing in the areas of my sensuality and sexuality. I did not know what the recipient would take away from this, all I know is that I am doing my part, and that is the cleaning. Cleaning the memories that surface from the subconscious mind’s database.
Up close with enchantment
When the recipient received the details of the experience via email and glimpsed a photo of the painting before receiving it, she commented on how this all seemed to bring out a part of her that she’d buried for some time. I still do not know what she is ultimately receiving from the painting, but I am feeling good about the energy between us. I feel ‘clean and clear” so-to-speak! Like whatever past karma we may have had between us or our ancestors has been forgiven and we can simply move on with love for ourselves in a new light!
A piece of Rejuvenation
That is how I feel after I finish every painting! Refreshed, relieved, uplifted, renewed, and full of love and compassion for myself and the world. I am simply doing my part, by following my intuition, mind, heart and soul. By cleaning all the “stuff” that emerges in me as problems or challenges. By constantly renewing, refining, and restoring my passions and doing what I love to do. And most importantly (I feel), surrounding myself with pure divine light, offering this love to anyone in the universe who wishes to share it with me.
