2nd day--Elektra

[Guest guest]

Well, Elektra, Svadhisthana is talking to you because guilt is the demon of the

second chakra. Listen to it and try to acknowledge and release it. Here's what

Anodea Judith said about guilt and the second chakra in 'Eastern Body, Western

Mind:'

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Guilt curtails the free flow of movement, largely by taking the pleasure out

of it. If I feel guilty

about what I am doing, I do not fully enjoy it. I cannot fully sense the

experience as one part of me is frozen off, restricting or trying to control

what I am doing.

 

Guilt polarizes the personality. It divides light against dark, good against

bad. We are wonderful one day and horrible the next, all because of something

we did. The brighter the light, the darker the shadow. The greater the guilt,

the more we try to emancipate ourselves by flawless behavior. Flawless behavior

inhibits the natural flow of energy moving up from the lower chakras and tends

to polarize mind and body. A polarized personality is characterized by

either-or thinking. Without the multiplicity of the rainbow, we find ourselves

locked in black-and-white choices.

 

There is, or course, a healthy place for guilt: as a feeling that allows us

to examine our behavior before, during, or after our actions. When it’s not

distorted, guilt tells us where the boundaries are and where we need to make

change. In its appropriate place as feedback, guilt is not a demon but a guide.

It is only when guilt becomes excessive, habitual, internalized, and toxic that

it dominates the free flow of movement and the full sensate experience of life

that is so necessary to the second chakra. Guilt is a teacher when it guides

us, but a demon when it binds us.

Blessings & love to you, my friend,

Claudia

I've been feeling sh*t all day long, much guilt

inside, I can see that it is this guilt that has

closed down my sexual self.

 

Lots of releasing going on, I've done a small fire

ritual to burn some of my guilt and focused on

forgiveness of self and others.

Feeling weird, sore throat, edgyness.

 

Hope I've achieved some good stuff, this guilt really

needs to come out, it is also what causes my food

allergies.

I have been denying myself to feel pleasure, enjoy

food, sex, desire....

 

The guilt in me shut it all down. I've been made to

feel guilty my entire life by my family and teachers,

by myself and the people around me.

So much guilt, I think guilt is the thing I've felt

most in my life, especially as a youngster.

 

I'll keep on keeping on :-))

 

With all my love, have a wonderful day guys,

Elektra x x x not guilty as charged....
