The Dark

The Dark

I wrote in my last post about how the light works so it seemed that talking about some basic dark principles would be helpful as well. By understanding the principles of each, you can better navigate through life and make better life choices.

Win/Lose

One major difference about the light in the dark is the concept of the win/win versus the win/lose. Think of a traditional deal with the devil or a demon and in order to get what you want, you must always sacrifice something you really ideally would not want to lose like your soul, or your life. Sign on the dotted line to receive wealth, fame fortune, and the girl (or boy) and in exchange you relinquish your soul and die after ten years. Contrast that with the light principles which state that there doesn’t have to be a loser. Not only is there not a winning side but you don’t have to sacrifice something you want for something else you don’t want. When you work with the light, it is possible to achieve goals and help others in the process. As you do well you can help others more, plus you get to keep your soul – major bonus!

Illusion and Deception

The light is about illumination and the truth. The dark is about deception and illusion. As things are illuminated, whatever is being hidden is revealed. Whenever you are dealing with an individual that is deceptive or a situation where there is a lot of illusion, it is likely that there is a lot of darkness there. To hide or deceive is not light. Healing and releasing happens when we see the deception that is there and move forward. The dark wants you to be in the dark and not know what is really going on. In life there is much illusion and as we spiritually evolve, we learn to see past the illusion to the truth even in the darkness.

Destruction

Just as the light creates, the dark destroys. Notice I did not say good and evil. Sometimes in order to create, we need to have some destruction (an old building is torn down to make way for the new for example). That said, widespread destruction is not usually helpful. Often times, we are guided to release rather than destroy in order to make way for the new. It is possible for us to release with being destructive. For example, when a relationship has run its course, you may simply choose to let the relationship go rather than destroy it. Ask the angels for help clearing and releasing in a helpful way and creating the new.

Punishment Versus Healing and Understanding

The dark principles are punishment and suffering like the concept of “an eye for an eye” versus healing and understanding. There is a big difference between demanding that someone is punished for their actions rather than helping them understand why that action is not good. I prefer restorative justice which helps the perpetrators of crimes understand the damage they did. It is much more effective than simply punishing. When you punish without helping someone understand why it’s a bad idea to do that action, no healing happens. The energy of punishment is about spreading suffering rather than learning and healing. Do you prefer to spread the energy of love through healing or pain and suffering?

Of course this is all a simplification. In life there are many gray areas however hopefully these help you think about things in a different way. There are other light and dark principles but this is a great start. I’ll be talking about other principles in later articles. 

The Light

The Light

I am starting this new blog titled The Light and the Dark and thought an appropriate way to start it was to talk about the light, and what is, and the principles of the light. In the world there are two opposing forces, the light and the dark. The light is about love, light, joy, health passion, flow, ease, health, cooperation, and abundance. There are many more words I could use to describe the light but I am sure you get the idea. In very simple terms, the light is nice and this is important. Someone who is nice, operates very differently than someone who is not nice. A nice person cares how you feel. A nice person cares what you want and dark person doesn’t. This means that in order to participate fully in your life, the light needs an invitation. Think about it, would a nice person just waltz into your house and make themselves at home? Of course not! A nice person will wait to be asked and they won’t assume they can come again tomorrow, they will wait again. The light is like that. If you want light energy into your life, you have to invite it in and you have to do it regularly.

Your Garden

Another way to look at this is to think about a garden. Imagine you have been given a garden, imagine now that you have been given a plot of land and it hasn’t been maintained. How does the garden look? More likely than not, the garden would likely be filled with weeds or at the very least with plants that are not the plants that you want in there. In order to get a lovely garden or fruits and vegetables, you need to do some cultivation. You have to remove the weeds and plant flowers and then regularly water and weed to get the type of growth you want in your garden. The same principles apply to the spiritual world. The dark just shows up automatically but the light requires thought effort and at least a little work. Since light energy is so lovely to have in your life, asking the light in is in my opinion very worth the effort. Who doesn’t want a lovely garden?

Angels

Most people have heard of angels but a lot of people think of them as being religious beings since they are described in Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. I like to think of angels as beings of light that are here to help us. Essentially, that is what they are here to do, to support and assist us. If you work with the light, you are working in situations that are a win/win. This means that there is benefit to both sides. If you are working with angels, there will be benefits to you, to them, and to those that you work with! Love and wonderful things spread from their work. This is why I so recommend invitation the angels into your life and working with them regularly. Their influence has a wonderful ripple effect that will go out into the world and return back to you in wonderful, and incredible ways.

How to Plant the Flowers

You may be wondering, how do I plant the flowers in my garden? The truth is that it is very easy, all you have to do is ask the angels and beings of light in to assist you. You can think the invitation (the spiritual world is telepathic) or you can say or write it out. There is no right or wrong way to do this so long as you communicate your intent. You can ask for general help or specific help. Bear in mind that bigger requests take time though.

Pay Attention to Signs

Once you have asked for assistance, start paying to the world around you and through your own thoughts. It is through these avenues that the angels will start to give you messages. These messages are to comfort you as well as to give you guidance that will help you make changes to help answer your prayers. The angels communicate through overheard conversations, through numbers, through animals, through billboards and things you read and yes through your thoughts and feelings. Once we know this, we can start to pay attention and make even more positive changes.

Faith

One of the important light principles is that of faith. Once you have asked the angels for help, have faith that it is going to happen. Remember that doubt is based in fear and is really the opposite of love. If you are filled with doubt and fear, it will block the light. Imagine a cloud of ink obscuring the light in water. When the light is blocked by the dark, it become hard to navigate and see and hear the messages of love that the angels are giving us.

Learning about the light and inviting the light in are of extreme importance to make positive changes.

It is also very important to learn how the dark operates so you can steer clear of it. The dark is sneaky! I will write more about the principles of the dark in my next post.
