Good versus Bad Energy
I get asked often “do you see bad stuff?” “What if you see something bad, do you tell the person in a reading?” “You aren’t going to tell me anything bad, are you?”
When it comes to energy, there isn’t good or bad. Energy is energy. When it comes to reading energy, I have never read anything “bad” as information that is ours is usually helpful for us to know. When we can see our information and what is happening in our world, we can better prepare and understand what is unfolding. In seeing and intuiting what is manifesting in our lives, it isn’t about good or bad. It is about seeing it as it is.
Good and bad are how we in the body make sense of things. We are programmed to classify things as either good or bad. Get a raise, good. Lose your job, bad. Win a prize, good. Drop your ice cream cone, bad.
What if when we dropped our ice cream, the owner of the ice cream shop saw it, and without request, brought you a brand new one and this one with sprinkles? Was dropping your ice cream still bad?
What if that job you lost led you to move and in moving you met the love of your life. Was it still bad that you lost your job?
What if you got a raise and then your boss expected so much of you that you let all of your relationships go and ended up tired, depressed, and no fun to be around. Still a win to getting the raise?
You get the idea. We like to think that we know what is good and bad. We like to think we know how to correctly categorize the events that unfold each day for us.
When it comes to energy and working with/reading energy, neutrality is the true winner. When you come from neutrality, when you view things from a neutral lens, the question is no longer is this good or bad. The question becomes “what is the insight to gain here? what is the experience teaching me? what is the opportunity for growth here?”
The challenge for all of us is to move past the good versus bad energy question and see beyond the reaction from a place of neutrality and non-judgment, to be willing to allow the energy to unfold and trust our intuition to guide us.
As always, keep growing!
