SOLAR ECLIPSE ENERGETICS // Some old school classical med tips for solar eclipses warn pregnant women from going outside while sunlight is obscured and businesses should close. Daoist practices say to avoid practicing qigong, having sexual intercourse or performing strong energetic practices (like Astral Projection). Deep meditations should be avoided unless you are experienced as all of these lead to Qi deviations if practiced during the eclipse. • • Although I haven't found a definitive answer about what exactly happens (according to Qi Theory) during a Solar Eclipse, I have been contemplating the Yang aspect of the 🌞 and the Yin Aspect of the 🌚. Energetically, I believe it is the manifestation of Yin holding Yang or Yin obscuring Yang. It's a time when our inner world bubbles up to consciousness. All that is repressed in our collective unconscious is bursting into our conscious lives. (See: the News). These are our latent emotions front and center. Like most things we keep hidden, it is ugly and difficult to process, but it's still a part of us. How can we reconcile and integrate this? • • My suggestion: Take a few minutes of silence today and pay attention to what comes up for you. Each eclipse has massive amounts of manifestation energy. Use whatever insights come up to propel you to the next phase- whatever that may be. I'd love to hear your feedback about your insights and experience during this solar eclipse! #chinesemedicine #traditionalchinesemedicine #qigong #taiji #meditation #reiki #prana #qi #energetics #alchemy #inspiration #eclipse2017 #solareclipse #fengshui #classicalmedicine #health #wellbeing #holistic #neigong #dragon #sun #sf #sfacupuncture #sfsoma #houston #htx #houstonacupuncture (at Houston, Texas)
