Ancient History-Chakra 5



by Shaun Brown
I believe that the throat chakra stores all of the history and information of past lives of that individual in the vibration of their vocal cords. When one speaks they are emitting their Ancient history and are able to attract others that resonate with the same vibration by using the spoken word. Also, color or colors are emitted with each word so if you can see auric colors this is especially helpful.


What importance is this? Well it becomes an important compass to me. The sound of ones familiar voice vibration, so to speak, is like music I have heard before. It helps me understand my attraction to a person, what I need to learn or can share and where we left off. It eliminates the extraneous conversation time so that we can get on with what we came here to do which being of Service. We like-mindeds attract each other and the contract is to support each other while raising the consciousness of the planet.


The spoken word is powerful, vulnerable and revealing all at once. Ever notice sometimes when you meet someone and start talking to him or her it feels like you have known them forever? Well you probably have.

…just an observation.



Quantum Prosperity

My work, as a holistic therapist, speaker, author, columnist and consultant in the field of Healing Arts, usually focuses on helping holistic professionals make a living, make a difference, and stay in balance.


The information in this article can be adapted to anyone’s lifestyle in general. I would like to share some of what I know being self employed most of my life. Here are some absolutes I have found that will lead you to Prosperity.


When I facilitate any class or workshop there is always a core credo to share with the students. These are the four essential tools to getting the flow going in any life. These four are not negotiable and when applied will always bring Prosperity into your Life.


In very brief they are:

1. Meditate daily-if we want to be guided by the Universe we must pick-up the phone. C. Myss

2. Affirm-The Universe is prosperous it only knows how to give. If your affirmations are: I’m broke, I can’t pay my bills, life sucks…That’s exactly what the Universe will continue to give you. Always think positive affirmations. My work is embraced by all, I am paid well, I am healthy, happy and able to humbly Serve. W. Dyer

3. Volunteer your time-not your occupation, just show up to a cause or charity you never know who you will connect with. S. Brown

4. Give-the first check you write every month to a Spiritual Path. It is a symbolic letting go of a prized possession and a gesture of Trust that given freely, the Universe will reciprocate 10 fold. S. Orman Infuse these tools into your life for three months and your life will change dramatically.


Power/Money/Needs

Having stated the four corners of your foundation let’s jump into some specifics. Prosperity: The state of being prosperous; advance or gain in anything good or desirable. Dictionary.com


Anything good or desirable what does that mean? What do we truly desire when we think about Prosperity? I will talk about money being a symbol of Energy and Power. I also discuss what your true needs are and how the Universe will orchestrate them if you let it.


When we talk about Prosperity, what is the first thing that usually comes to your mind? Is it Money? This is probably the usual perception. The reason we value money so much is that it lets us acquire third dimensional objects and lends support and comfort to our survival lifestyles. Money supplies our basic needs such as food and shelter and shopping. I say survival because this is the perception of the experience level that the general consensus of our species has reached. Money allows us to acquire the “outside” things. Things we think we need to keep us alive not realizing that our Life Force is not fed by this dynamic.


Most people are still living in the “survival” mode. Going through the zombotic motions, just existing, remaining alive. Even though we live in a fairly high-tech advanced society with most comforts at our grasp, there still exists that primordial urge to continue to acquire more from the outside. It is pretty easy to get along, especially if you live in America. Money is the driving force of most countries. We like to control and have power over what is going on outside of ourselves; it gives us the perception of safety. This is the definition of ‘survival’ mode.


Money has been given symbolic Power. Is it really money that we want? If you were to have all of the money from the planet Venus and tried to spend it here what would happen? It would have no societal value, because money is symbolic. Money will come to you like everything else, when you’re ready to do what it takes to receive it. After observing that we, as creative types, have become restless with the survival mode model and money has been demythologized, we step into the next phase of our development as cosmic beings, are called to become Spiritual Adults.

Spiritual Adults

Even though money seems like such a disconnected thing to your spiritual practice, it is directly connected. The definition of Power is: ability to do or act; a force or strength. We think we seek Power. What we really seek is Peace.


When you reach a stage of graduating out of the survival mode, you are ready to take responsibility for yourself and become a Spiritual Adult; the survival mode doesn’t fit you anymore. You want to do more with your Life than just survive. There is a Higher calling than just controlling the outside and buying material things.


One begins this new venture by following their passion. They are not paying so much attention trying to keep all of their survival stuff together anymore. Your Soul yearns to express your creativity so intensely that you don’t care that much about the outside stuff as much as you used to. You realize that this survival model doesn’t bring you Peace anyway.


The only way to petition change from the survival mode of power equals money, to the Prosperity mode of Power equals Peace is by being a Spiritual Adult. Through daily meditation and prayer we cross over into the Fourth Dimension. The dimension of Intuition, the dimension where your Teachers come to meet you, the dimension where you will eventually receive all of your Guidance.


“How do I do this?” you ask. First, by changing your thoughts to the possibility of a better, more Prosperous life as a Spiritual Adult. Meditation, prayer, affirmation, giving, volunteering your time, Self-Care-this is the formula my friends. As I stated in the beginning of this read all of these things are absolutes that raise your Consciousness. That in turn changes your perspective so that you can perceive your small personality as just a vehicle to sport your Soul and get on with your important mission. As you pursue this all of your needs will be met and more.


Once you have created a relationship with the Universe and yourself all of your needs will be met and your mission will become highly defined. Spiritual Adult perceptions are given when the student is ready to accept the new perception. That perception is only experienced AFTER the student trusts that they will be taken care of without any first guarantees. When jumping off of a Spiritual cliff you will always land in a safe nest or God is going to teach you to fly.


When I have a scary, daunting issue at hand I have learned that the only thing I can do is ask for Guidance and leap into the crevasse with reckless abandon. A leap of faith is all that can be done if I am to be free. What I am abandoning is my Ego, my fear that I won’t survive if I am not in control. To some extent the Ego always needs to die a little I think that is what an emotional bottom is. You will have more than one if you are evolving.


I have had to get used to faith without guarantees of what the outcome will look like. It’s called living in the leap, the leap of Faith. Having the Faith that my life is in good hands no matter what I think it is supposed to look like. When I stop questioning my direction and let go of outcomes new perceptions are presented to me. And this process will be ongoing for me because as soon as I think I understand I want to take control again. The Ego is such an odd mechanism. We need it to remind us to eat, sleep and survive with the basic needs. So it doesn’t feel natural to set it aside and ask for Abundance, Peace, Joy and Gratitude. These gifts are given to us at no charge, with no effort. A simple asking of Spirit for direction and your persona becomes nurtured and fed with these qualities. So simple.

Until next time, BeWell!
