Alaskan
Environmental Essences
Northern Lights
This environmental essence was prepared
on a windy, -30F arctic night under a magnificent swirling display of
green northern lights. This phenomenon of light, also called the aurora
borealis, has its origins on the sun. The sun is continuously sending
out a stream of charged particles of energy that travel through space
as solar wind. As this solar wind reaches the Earth’s magnetic
field these particles are drawn toward the north and south geomagnetic
poles. When these solar electrons meet the Earth’s upper atmosphere
they collide with gas molecules, causing those molecules to enter into
an excited state called ionization. The light displays we see are produced
when these ionized gas molecules return to their normal or “ground”
state.
Healing Qualities - These “rainbows of the night”
have the power to liberate us from a mundane and earthbound perspective
on life through the vehicle of our amazement. As we gaze at their wondrous
oscillations of light and energy, we are given the opportunity to expand
our senses beyond the physical and join in a dance with the source of
creation.
This essence is often indicated when we are poised on the edge of a
breakthrough in consciousness, but lack the energy to complete the process.
In this instance, Northern Lights can help us tap into the fundamental
creation forces of the Universal Field and gather the energy we need
to make the transition from the old to the new.
The essence of Northern Lights has the capacity to work with our energy
of deep transformation, especially when such an experience has broken
down the old energetic patterns of connection that we have used to relate
to others and to the outside world. This can leave us feeling disoriented,
and with our heart forces scattered. It is in this place of dissolution
and disintegration that the essence of Northern Lights does its work,
helping us create a new energetic matrix of connection in our hearts
based on Universal Love.
