Downward to Move Forward
“Downward is the only way forward.” Christopher Nolan
I saw Inception on Monday. Its layers were brilliant…and very familiar. We, as human and soul, live our lives in layers so complex and intricate, the definition of one’s reality is subjective and ever changing.
No two lives are the same. No few or many lifetimes can be placed one atop the other to know the fullness of a soul’s story. No reflection of what has truly happened in a circumstance reveals the whole story of the webs we weave in even one day. Yet, here we sit, reflecting, wondering and comparing ourselves to everything and everyone that surrounds us.
I felt pretty okay with my self when I left Nevada for Texas. External change was indeed overdue, but internally, I was strong and well. “Consider,” Michael said to me in the early stage of the game of change. “Consider what?” I asked. “Consider,” was his only reply. It was the first single word instruction he had uttered. I only considered he was being inconsiderate by not providing me with his full thought. Over the course of the weeks of decisions, I did not take the time to consider.
I have exchanged my beloved ground of crystals and gems beneath the earth for a foundational landscape of decaying dinosaur. The energy is vastly different here and the shift has surfaced all of my own deeply hidden decaying energies made of choices in the world of unawareness. Where was I in the choosing of the change? Where was I in the choosing of creation?
In a moment of hitting a gusher of internal self-disregard, Michael was ever so kind as to help me keep pumping the well until it was dry. This entailed moving into greater complexities of the internal worlds within worlds that we individually and collectively create. We are complex and we are living our every day lives of choice with so little recognition of what is true and what is not.
What is in front of us is not what it means and what it means is not in front of us.
In the simplicity of complexity, we create our days from three categorical levels: head, heart and core. Take a moment to center into each individually, beginning with the head (high mind) and end with the core (enteric mind). Ask, “What is present and ready to come to fruition through me today?” Unless you are a fully aligned individual, you will experience three very separate responses. Unconscious awareness creates your reality with more power than your conscious awareness. It is the unawareness that allows free reign for the unknowns to seed, root and grow with wild abandon.
Depending upon where you step within these three areas, you are walking in a grid with others also creating from that level. Considering there are layers upon layers within each category and you are creating with so many other co-creators, your every moment determines the worlds you create. Where is your I in the choosing of the creation? Become aware to become the chooser in the creation of your worlds.
Inception is a world of worlds. Its layers, depths and complexities mirror life. There are seeds that have taken root so deep within us that no longer serve our individual and collective desires for a greater world. Life itself is now digging deep to reprogram and plant anew.
We are all, as our greater selves, choosing a new inception that we may rise to our greater occasion. The choice is deep, it is hidden and life is changing whether we consciously desire it or not. Know what you have chosen and are choosing. Be part of the game of the emerging self of kindness, consideration and cooperative co-creation. Choose its possibility. Consider its probability. Know its inception.
