Ruling Energies: Identifying the Powers that Shape Our Lives

Has your life ever seemed to just spiral out of control? One moment you have a simple thought; the next, your life has completely changed? You may have stepped into a Ruling Energy stream. For centuries the byproducts of emotional energy have been stored in streams which have grown in volume and power. Your thoughts, behaviors and emotions attach you to these streams, and before you know it, your wandering thought about how cute the new employee is turns into marital infidelity. How did that happen? You thought you were happy. You've just been swept into the Ruling Energy of Mistress. This first volume concentrates on identifying the Ruling Energies and the Tributaries that interconnect them (and you). Future volumes will explore each Ruling Energy indepth and provide archetype descriptions for personality behaviors within that Energy. A sample list of Ruling Energies includes: Mistress Energy; Righteous Anger; Addiction and Despair. This volume, Ruling Energies, identifies the energies and discusses Love- and Fear-based energies: Love is the strongest power in the Universe and its opposing energy is Fear. Whether you realize it or not every choice you make is based on whether you are chosing from a place of love or a place of fear. When choices are made from a place of fear you will continue to attract that kind of energy to you. For instance, you decide not to take a vacation because you are worried about spending too much money (on things you don't need). You stay home, but then the hot water heater goes out so you end up spending the money anyway. It can be argued that you have the money for the repair because you stayed home; but it can also be said that regardless of how you plan you never truly have control of the energy (money) you are blessed with--you are merely a stewart of that energy. When you make choices out of fear (that you won't have enough), then you attract that energy (lack) to you and the Universe has no choice but to bless you with lack. That doesn't mean that you had to take a vacation or lose the money. You could have made the same choice out of love: a vacation would be nice, but I really love the idea of saving up for a new car. I can see myself driving it and have already picked out the color and model. I love putting money in my car fund and can't wait until next payday so I can make another deposit. That choice is being made from a place of love and the Universe will help you realize your inner voices (of abundance).
