As we prepare to move up and out of Yesod, I have an obligation to prepare you to step into the void. The void is like nothing we have experienced yet, and yet, this is where our bodies will be as we stand on Yesod while reaching outwards to touch Hod and Netzach. The void is a place we will again visit after our time in Tipharet. And the void is a very powerful place to be.
Everything is created in the void.
Everything.
It is the womb of the mother, the silence before the blueprint. When stepping into the void, there is no room for any attachments, no room for any thoughts. it is the blank slate of creation where the energy gathers before it flows out. It is the moment between the in-breath and out-breath. It is the point of light between the yin and yang, it is the moment in the midst of polarization. If the law of the Universe is to create perfect balance, the void is the moment of balance.
The void is the law.
Who are you in the void? Who are you when everything else is gone? What is your truth?
1. What is the truth about your mother?
2. What is the truth about your father?
3. What is the truth about the relationship with yourself?
4. What is the truth about your relationship with the Universe/God/Energy/Ensof?
5. What is the truth about your career?
6. What is the truth about your finances?
7. What is the truth about your health?
8. What is the truth about the relationship with your spouse?
and on and on an on…. what are your truths? Where do you stand with yourself when you are naked to the rest of the world? Who are you when you stand naked in the void?
The void existed before anything and will exist after everything is gone. The void is everywhere and no where at the same time. When you touch it, you will know, yet it is hidden. It is nothing and everything, no time and all time, brilliant light and infinite darkness, silence and sound all at once. It is you. within you. and outside of you.
The void is real.
How do you know when you have touched it?
Parting thought: “Reverence is a more holy place than power.”
Why?
Power involves an act of the will, or the potential to use it. Reverence is in a place…of balance. Of adoration of the divine. It makes sense that reverence would be most holy, because power is wielding creation itself. Impersonating deity’s power, instead of sitting within it.
