The Magic of Symbols Symbols are an important and very powerful visual aid to all of us as we each wander along on our own specific paths during our current Earthwalk. The reason symbols are so powerful and work so well is that they're visual, which is gibberish to the logical, reasoning, conscious part of the brain. That part of your brain, because it doesn't understand a symbol, will determine that it is of no importance and is meaningless... useless. Which is a good thing because your logical mind all too often and all too easily reasons itself into incorrect answers, solutions, definitions, determinations. It can easily be swayed into believing first this is true and then, after resorting the information, believing that the opposite is true. Luckily for us, we have a subconscious mind, because it's the subconscious mind that recognizes and understands symbols and their meaning. The power of visual symbology comes from the fact that your subconscious directs 90% of your conscious thought. So even though your conscious mind doesn't understand what a symbol means, it ends up being substantially influenced by your subconscious mind, which does understand the meaning of the symbol. Symbols influence us every day. Some are obvious, some are so subtle as to go unnoticed by the conscious mind. An example of a very subtle symbol is the FedEx logo, which has embedded in it's center an arrow pointing to the right - the direction we associate with action and movement. Besides being used in advertising, we use symbols in many diverse and creative ways, such as:
You encounter hundreds of symbols every day. Imagine the messages your subconscious is receiving, and how those messages are influencing your conscious thought via your subconscious. To counteract the many unwanted symbolic messages you're receiving, select symbols that speak of what you want and surround yourself with them. For example, on the walls in my office I have Reiki symbols, Zibu Angel symbols, my Treasure Map, a couple of beanies with propellers, and a pink sequined tiara. All of these are visuals that speak to my subconscious about gratitude and abundance (Zibu), creativity (Reiki), fun (beanies, tiara), and the things I want to manifest or attract (Treasure Map). I also have a little stand in which I place a Tarot card that visually symbolizes a quality I wish to focus on for a time. Look around the areas in which you spend extended periods of time, such as your work place, where you relax in the evening, your vehicle. What are the symbols you see and what do they mean to you? Are those the messages you want your subconscious to be sending to your consciousness? If not, select new symbols that do have the meanings you wish to incorporate into your life and surround yourself with them. Then pay attention to how you feel and how your thoughts are changing and shifting into those of better quality. Love,
Books have always been an important part of my life. Because I love books so much, I want to share with you those that especially excite me. Here is this month's selection...
Zibu: The Power of Angelic Symbology by Debbie Z. I met Debbie at a metaphysical bookstore where she was signing copies of her just-published book. We chatted for a while and she shared her path of how she went from being an executive secretary to channeling angelic symbols. She said that when she was beginning her secretarial career, she took some shorthand classes. She discovered a natural talent for that style of writing and was so good at it that she soon was assisting the teacher in class. Of course, her ability served her well as she advanced in her career. Years later, she became interested in calligraphy and began practicing it as a hobby. Like shorthand, it seemed to come naturally to her and she loved it. One day as she was writing her daily journal, an angelic being came to her and gave her the first of many symbols along with the interpretation. The angel explained that Zibu is an ancient healing language expressed as symbols. I found it fascinating how, on her path through life, she was being trained first through shorthand and then calligraphy in preparation for her most important work of drawing the Zibu Angel Symbols. These beautiful symbols can be used in many ways:
Zibu Symbol of the Month
Gratitude From the book Zibu, The Power of Angelic Symbology by Debbie Z. Follow the energy of this symbol, either with your eyes or by drawing it with pen or color crayon on paper. Although there are no directions on where to start, I like to begin at the center and follow the energy down, and as I do so I imagnine that it's the path of energy descending into matter. Then it changes direction and as it begins to change into a higher frequency, rising toward the heavens and then coming back down into my heart. I invite you to play with this beautiful symbol and discover what it has to offer you. |
