🌿 Do you believe we are here to understand ourself?
Sharing some ramblings after investigating l understanding and knowing (self/others) recently through my work and the various projections within understanding via communication, control, and either gaining, maintaining or avoidance patterns.
I used to believe “why we are here” was about understanding - but when understanding arrives do we then really ever understand ourself, see ourself, know ourself? ** if understanding comes from mind…
Within Human Design I have the 43-23 and 2 x 21st gates (shadow control) and it’s interesting where this plays out personally… the 43-23 likes to think it knows and understands
“I know, I know”.
Collectively right now the 43-23 channel is active in ALL personality nodes until sometime in July…
So, I began mapping unconscious thought streams (limiting beliefs) around understanding and to be (feel) understood.
🌿 Bypassing conscious thought and tapping into bodymind awareness where test case studies for further validity
What followed are thought patterns and limiting streams in line with
“I have to make sense of (understand) everything to avoid feeling out of control”
Or
“I have to be (feel) in control (understand) to avoid not being (feeling) misunderstood or put of control”
This appears more Common in people with open Ajna or head centre…
To help drop out of mind we can ask quantum linguistic questions..
Q. What would happen if you didn’t understand yourself?
A. I wouldn’t understand myself
Ok then what would happen if you didn’t?
……
Then what would happen?
Usually an avoidance pop’s up or to gain, or maintain a certain state of being, the self we are identified as…
I continued… What wouldn’t happen if understanding yourself didn’t mean you are in control?
Or what would happen if understanding yourself did mean you’re in control?
For some not understanding brings up ‘fear of the void’ or “The Well”
A deep rooted Fear of not knowing…The unknown.
Q. What if you lowered the bucket into “The Well” and entered open, formless, spacious, timeless, expansiveness that is the void …. Aka YOU.
What if one of the greatest gifts is in not knowing?
I get that Collectively this comes as a struggle because we are raised to know.
Education based systems from an early age are set up to study, know, remember, and retain copious amounts of information.
A process that may relieve or create mental pressure 🤔 For some permanently and for others temporarily.
🌿 In Human Design my profile is a 5/1 Splenic Projector. I LOVE diving deep, investigating, exploring and reflecting through moment by moment intuitive awareness.
Using mind to bring awareness, observation, and witnessing rather than to know or understand…
Because I see what works and doesn’t work for us individually and as a collective.
Basically… when we stop trying to make sense of our sense making and stop reflecting that in trying to understand others, We free up ALOT of mental, physical and emotional energy in releasing need, want, desire to understand and/or be understood.
Enabling ‘inner authority’ and conscious awareness * the bodymind* to choose and thrive Vs mind based control and knowing
Cos’ we never really know!
And Hello True (inner) Authority uniting Vs inner/outer control.
I may explore this further and as always am open to hear your POV’s…
