The summertime’s seasonal qualities perfectly describe the “Fire” Element’s distinctive characteristics. Summer is an active time full of movement, warmth, growth and relationships. Society is typically outside, gathering, and enjoying each other’s company. Humans and plants flourish with the warmth of the sun. Nature itself is moving, the plants are now thriving, animals are getting ready to produce their young and things are busy. Find out what make a “Fire” type personality and why summer time is all about this type of energy.

The Liver is most affected by emotions and stress. It is commonly associated with anger when it’s out of balance, and expansion when in balance. When our liver energy is not flowing smoothly throughout our body it can lead to feelings of stress, frustration, and anger, as well as physical symptoms like a tight neck and shoulders, PMS, menstrual problems, and even digestive problems. The liver in balance brings about positive mental emotional attributes of compassion, patience, acceptance, benevolence and honesty.

Energy animates our lifeforce and is propelled through our bodies in intricate patterns, rhythms and channels. If we are alive, as electrical beings, we have a biofield. Our biofield is like our energetic skin and is our first line of sensing and defense to outside influences. This protective bubble is generated in part by our hearts and brains, the earth’s polarities and the grander universal energy field matrix we all belong to. Our personal energies are constantly intermingling with the energy of others and it’s not uncommon for us to take on some of the energy of other people.

Our biofields, called auras by Eastern traditions, are also capable of holding on to our unwanted thoughts, unprocessed emotions, negative self-images, and negative self-talk. Even drugs and food can muddy our biofields.

Winter is a time when nature is in hibernation guiding us to slow down and tune into our bodies’ need for stillness and rest.  In Energy Medicine we can look to the Chinese Five Element model to understand that we are entering into the energy of the Water Rhythm.  The essence of this element holds features of the cold, dark, deep, and mysterious. It symbolizes the embryo of potential and the seed of a new plan. When we are immersed in these energies, we are called to retreat within ourselves to percolate and birth new ideas for the new year ahead of us.  For me it is a magical time with its invitation to be mindful about life, nature and balance. 

“Different Modes of Sensing” is a multi part series teaching you about how different people receive information while Remote Viewing. Clairaudience comes from the French words clair (clear), and audience (the action of hearing). Put them together and you’ve got clear hearing. Clear hearing can be the ability to receive intuitive impressions through audible sounds. You can hear your own voice internally in your head along with sounds, words, music and tones.

In Traditional Chinese medicine “Fall time” is where we move into one of the rhythms of the 5 elements called “Metal”.  It’s a time of year where the Earths energies change, and we go into a season where we begin to shut down and store the energies that we will use to rebirth ourselves in spring.  It’s a time where we need to rebuild and regenerate from our expansive summer energies.  Metal time holds the energy systems of the Lung & Large Intestine, which are all about breathing out stale energy to allow for fresh energy and inspiration and letting go of what no longer serves us.
