In your name, there are likely to be one or two vowels missing.

Each vowel has a certain tone, carries a frequency when you say it aloud.

You can add color associations of Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, and Blue – creating a rainbow[1] in this case, with sounds of  A, E, I, O, U.

 or whatever your synesthetic mind sees readily.

*

With our tendencies to lean heavily on our few vowels, when there’s a world to draw from, if you’re feeling under the weather,

You might be lacking part of the AEIOU rainbow.

Just like our vitamin foods, this isn’t such a new idea!

*

Our earth with her four elements earth (grounding us), air (cooling and fanning), Fire (warming and singing), and water (connecting and filling) and space – between each, is

not just dirt,

but your friend- when you let her be.

*

So go lay on her (the earth I mean).

Tell her how you feel

when there’s no one

else around to listen.

******

An A is breath of air,

That you can trust ~unconditionally

Like breathing, for as long as you are living.

Right now you can inspire a big breath in.

“A” is All-ah, we all breath together

So you might want to pray then, as

Everything is a blessing,

Which from Him are given, and by Her filled out.

She, our earth vessel self, sometimes called “Gaia”,

is the “B” in the matter.

Gaia creates and contains the space for your dream’s spirit being. She does not create your spirit, but She maintains it.

When Her vessel is weak, your spirit dissipates.

Without one, there is not the other.

*

With Her support (or oppression – as She can do both), our spirit rises or falls, going up or down,

expands or contracts, brightens or dims, from inside and out.

Her vessel skews us left or right,

and towards front (into the seen) or back (into the unseen).

There is comfort in existing as we are, in our preferences.

And yet it is even more fun and happier when we are whole and centered!

When His force manifests our lust for a form, the invisible boson (also bosom) is summoned.

Like a tree lit by lightening, our path lays visible, even if for just a moment.

Together with our/your structures and limits, as we work with our heart – lead hands, we push matter and shift our world.

 

*

Please stop decrying them…your oppressors, they are there to squeeze you a little; so you get uncomfortable – and grow. By giving them attention, you make them stronger.

Find a way to laugh instead -they really hate that and l’ove it when you’re (over) serious!

‘She’ will always

offer something

different- what you may not like,

but will love.

(l’ove is supporting your individual Orphic egg of existence).

*****

E – is for change. Three horizontal bars connected by a spine.

One extension high, one low, and one in the middle.

Which will you choose; where will you go? Do something different, maybe take the high road. “E” is the fifth letter of the English alphabet; five happens when four’s foundations create and are testable. There is a rune that looks a bit like “E” called Fehu.

Fehu when upright means abundance, reward, and success; when upside down is bankruptcy.

This links “E” with “F”. While Hebrew has no “e” per se, the path of Peh (pronounced “fey” or “feh”) has resonance.

In Kabbalistic Tarot, Peh’s path is of the tower; it’s energy is like when our misconceptions about ‘what is l’ove’, crumble.

When Peh has a dot (first stirrings of Yod) in the middle, F turns to P and is strongly percussive.

*

With F, you might almost say a thing,

but then catch your tongue at the very last moment.

Sure, you might have thought it,

but saying it is worse.

*

When Netzach gets e-motional, glandular energy is set into motion, current flows, and her light is hurled, when a thing is spoken. [2]

Peh with or without the dot, has Beis inscribed in it-so our ‘house’ is at the root of sounds we utter.

Percussive sounds create karma in the body -for better or worse.

Quantifying is also naming. And as such adds

Extra fractals to Yesod’s treasure house of images.

*

Do we really need more entity(ies)?

Might we be better without adding more to a matter?

Once named, the thing is spelled.

Words can’t be unspoken.

Maybe we should silently hold hands instead.

*

Dealing with change can be hard.

Being dragged or run through, a thing can feel undoing.

Feeling uncertain we are vulnerable. Perhaps you fear you’re nearing reefs of destruction.

Why don’t you try some ease (“Ees”) for medicine?

*

If you need an E, for example, go have a new experiences and get some ideas. Add variance to your routine.

Try some gentle change to rock your boat and help you shift course.

Go visit a new vista and I don’t necessarily mean a movie.

*

Switch things up a bit.

Give yourself more time.

You never know what your eye will [3] see.

Though they may deceive you, trust your heart sees clearly.

*

Call a trusted one,

 touch your rocks of foundation, check them out .

Take some personal inventory.

Check for places cracked or cracking; add Spackle to repair them.

*

That will give your some piece of mind and maybe a new project.

Even if minute and tiny, creative projects and well-done chores are

essentially all we can control. 

is it time to get a hobby? Focus on what you’d like to see more of.

*

Maybe you hadn’t thought of a new experience

Quite that way.

E’s colors might be orange,

Put a bright orange card in your wallet this will cheer you up when it’s cold and gloomy outside.

*****

E paired with orange has both yellow and red.

How we are feeling lies in our Dantien, midway between our (red) root chakra and (yellow) organizing solar plexus.  

This  is where we ‘take’ what we are given and from what we parse, assimilate.

The Dantien is where digestion happens.

*

How connected are you to your Dantien’s power center?

Is your digestion overwhelmed- maybe there’s some looseness?

Or are your stools floating in nicely formed pieces?

(In Ayurveda a sign of good digestion is having your stools formed and floating.)

*

I know its gross,

But it’s wise to check occasionally.

If you make changes, be patient.

It takes time to adjust to them.

*

“E” is everything of the earth too. Add black to yellow and red – you get a version of brown hue.

Are you eating enough yellow things,

grains and starches-including parsnips and potatoes?

If lacking yellow, try purple too, even if its not your favorite.

****

I – is for Yod, the hand of G-d. That’s a big one or can be, if you’re not looking out.

I’d rather get it by a wise parent, than by His higher orders!

Yellow stands for wisdom-

Often from mistakes, which we get to learn from.

Wisdom gets jaded when we lose interest and curiosity.

Like caramels with too much heat (anger or passion) or watery air (emotionally laden changes), turns brittle or soggy.[4].

*

As purple is the complement of yellow- it’s opposite on the color wheel. You could say purple and yellow are two sides of a coin.

Yod is the light of the Blessing, carried to the heart.

Yod is signified by the Hermit in Tarot; silver is one of his colors; why not let Him be sun yellow. though he is ultraviolet too.

*

There are three parts to Yod, his “head”, the “body”, and “tail”.

His head, starts with the face of the idea; nothing quite conscious; it sort of presents itself, though, you have, at least subconsciously, been working on this for a long time.

How it flushes out, – which finger is behind the “head”, is on G-d’s time always.

So why fret about it; just keep working. Believe in yourself.

You are perfect and enough- but can always become excellent!

*

Yod’s  tail has no ending,  as we are always tethered to Him by ideas He emanates.

Yod’s tail connects us to our galaxy’s center and is maintained despite spirit’s intergalactic travels.

Never forget, each of us emanates from G.C. ultimately, though our spirit took different paths to get here- until we were finally spit out of the sun as a G-d fractal being at our birthing.

*

To remember my connection to G-d at all times, I put cut-out little rose-wheels- Hebrew letters arranged in accordance to their number and weight, and traced out Kabbalah’s angels’ names.

Now each wheel is a sigil with shape and attribution.

They hang around my office and surround me. Along with my cats, They are my little family.

*

“I” also sounds like “eye” and “aye”.

So honor what your eyes see.

Let your visions support your dreams-

Put up a vision board of all good things.

*

You don’t need anyone to question you about it;

keep it be cool

and private- undefined by verbiage,

until you’re more sure of yourself.

*

As “aye” means yes,

practice saying “yes” whenever possible.

This is a great syllable that lifts heart chakra’s energy.

Say it out loud, just for the hell of it.

*

Purple is both balanced blue and red- but has no yellow in it.

Put some amethyst in your wine glass, or tie a purple crystal to your running shoes,

to help you with your temperance.

Maybe then, you won’t overdo it!

******

O

Is healing spirit of green and heart in (intact) unity.

O is for all of us in ones locality and collective.

As a symbol, “O” embodies many principles – including

Samech and Vau together.

*

Both your being and your ideas, need room to breathe- like the open space in “our “O”‘s middle.

So if you’re lacking inspirations,

Get rid of clutter; take time for meditation. Clear your mind.

Earth needs space for the Chi to flow in- which “O” has automatically.

*

Try some tapping , skipping or jumping on the trampoline; get some grounding so you become more present.

If you don’t have much “O”, community is helpful.

With others, your moods will shift and stabilize from the serotonin

such gatherings induce.

*

(It might not just be the turkey on Thanksgiving that makes everyone so sleepy.  That’s a special feeling of safety the kicks in when everyone’s home and sated. You can call it tryptophan, I’ll call it L’ove.)

*

O is completion of great work and effort, as much as it is a circle with inside and out. The circle is a bubble from 3D vantage point.

(4D is adding the element of time to the thing; without either time or space to measure and delimit, we get the fifth dimension.)

Samech, mixes force and form together.

It’s “O” is alchemical master, who sees unity in l’ove’s story.

*

Wreaths can cheer you too.

Like a doughnut, wreaths have a space in the middle.

Even if you can’t quite see the center perfectly,

when there are overlapping boughs or branches,

you know it has one.

*

Wreaths are quite centering which is why it’s nice to hang them up- even in your bedroom.

Add anything else round or with circles that grabs your fancy, are a version of “eye candy” (along with pictures of rainbows, angels, and star-shapes).

Let your body guide you – this is Art and requires a healthy intuition. So practice listening to your inner small voice. Journal after you meditate.

****

“Science” is in the measuring of our waveform’s probabilistic cloud- which is not a constant; but changes with time’s passages. With clarity, intention, and practice, we can become anyone or thing.

While some approaches to life and happiness, seem more successful than others when you’re living on your emperor’s time, in the “patriarchy”, he wants you to appear or seem to be in his accordance, when you’re altogether different inside. Find your own groove.

***

There are cycles to everything, and rushing doesn’t hone our force effectively.

However negative pressure, like a vacuum, will move mountains.

So make some extra space in your house.

Leave an opening on each wall and you’ll open yourself to more of your potential.

*

Hints of reality’s perfection are real[5], but fleeting. When a thing feels perfect, made through and through, we get a buzz of dopamine.

Dopamine, like all aminos, is addictive. It feels good and we want more of it.

It’s better altogether, to cut out the extra – especially related adrenaline.  Adrenaline will save your loved one, but she fries your heart and leaves you in shock. Let go of intense exercise; stick to moderation.

*

To restore, your O for Ojas, your inner sweetness, go for a swim.

In the ocean is best, because you’re lighter and more bouyant. Water surrounding your skin, reminds soma of her in utero time. You don’t forget anything.

Or treat yourself to a Ferris wheel (iron wheel) riding excursion.

Savor the open sky and views.

Gain perspective, there is always someone worse off than you; and always someone better.

How you mark time is your choice, at least in your spirit’s ‘eyes’;

 To hell with your supervisor. [6]

You might try blowing bubbles. With bubbles you get to create little rainbows.

Or a warm bubble bath might be just the thing.

Yes, these are my brainstorms- what are your ideas?

*****

Teth is in Samech’s symbol of unity too, as unity takes the snake (sensation, feeling, emotion, thoughts (which is Kaph encapsulated)) to connect them.

As Teth ‘swims’, he negotiates lust’s boundaries. Being strong in both Ve-Gebvurah and Ve-Gedulah (another name for Chesed), is his healthy aim. [7].

*****

*

U is not “I” and yet we engage with it. The “U” (you) and I, from both parties, inscribes Vau’s corpus in the middle. When we engage with others as equals, neither bows their head.

*

U is the Blue and Purplish part of our Soul Song Rainbow.

And as such encompasses  ‘rare’ stuff.

*

“U” is  Kaph turned 90 degrees- clockwise in this case. 

Kaph is G-d’s palm- and a single-humans amount of something helpful.

When you are in need and receive from another, doesn’t that feel humbling?

When Kaph is rotated from either His world or man’s, as Kaph can be flipped around the horizontal and still appear unchanged, he becomes U. Once applied, Kaph’s rubber hits the road.

With Kaph turns the wheel (in the Tarot), what follows honors Newton’s second Law- a thing placed in motion remains in motion without changing direction, until an external force is applied to it.

When Kaph catches Vau’s cog (cognitive corpus) of self, Peh , our mouth clarifies.

*

“Success” measured by G-d, or man,  as Kaph’s palm-sized amounts can be measured,  is a passel of opportunity.

This is all encompassed in “U”; what we get from each other, is exactly the right medicine (even if it needs digesting.)

Now you can see why, patience is a virtue.

And sometimes the ‘wheel’ is quite large indeed.

*

U is also Vau, historically, or so I read this on Chabad.org.

Then “U”, your will and mine – are projections of self we each have.

Let both be honored between us.

This is hard when the jobs are so damn polarized…at least until now. And why off-the-cuff words, can be quite startling.

Your Dharma honors your strengths and tests your weaknesses.

An interesting thing – your weaknesses will never bore you.

So honor your strengths; you’ll always have weaknesses to heal. 

*

U is everything I receive from Him- the one with words for me.

U does looks a little like a pit or the rut that you can get into without e-motion or Air. Are you stuck in despondency or co-dependency?

Is it time to dump ‘U” out? Have you tried going solo; maybe an adventure’s just the thing you need?!

Tapping and laughter are also indispensable. Do those frequently!

*

Life will freshen when you get out of your comfort zone-

With that, you’re taking your first step towards change[8].

Even if it’s going to a different Starbucks, when one shifts in a relationship- the other responds.

May we both shift to an even healthier outlook!

Though, I could outgrow you; if you won’t play with me.

******

The following are “vowels” used rarely; especially by the Welsh, to whom I’m related in blood and apparently in spirit.

*

Y is symbolic for Ayin, he’s reviewed in detail, here. Ayin means “eye” in Hebrew and he directs our king of self.

He is essential, but in a word, he’s rare. When you see an “y” in a word, the person, place, or thing, and verb, can be witnessed and/or felt.

*

W- is it really a vowel?

Since the tongue hits the mouth’s hard palate saying it, isn’t that cheating? With that, “W” is more consonant, it forms a thing.

W, as 2 Vaus, is your choice doubly;

I’d mostly avoid using  my W unnecessarily, if I were you.

***

An excellent medicine is a prayer for all. To ask for a blessing for the ‘highest and greatest good of all beings’ (not just your own collective or nation) including you “down to your tiptoes”, is very powerful. You’ll feel more like you’re part of the earth’s collective – and not just of your family, tribe, and nation.

If you don’t know a prayer you l’ove, use your own alphabet in its entirety – that way you include all G-d (and Gaia’s) energy when you say it.

May G-d’s will, not thy will, be done for all and always your highest good!

---

[1]  A five-element idea is foundation (4) + insight (1); or creation with two (3+2). The pentangle can be written either right side-up or upside down; both invoke the other in their execution.  Whether your result be from man or G-d, will be easy see the difference. G-d works through the heart- man through the pocketbook. A homes may look similar, but in one the glow is missing.

[2] [2].(to Hod). “Refining”, necessary for metamorphosis and transformation, blasts and derails our spirit of pride. When Peh is invoked, especially with its percussive dot, our towers of ego crumble. This process is healthy. Ouch though.

Remember all is a gift.

[3] Ayin self

[4]Too much air-(wave) hogging. Please wear a mask and put your tongue into listening position- stick it up to your hard palate and please, just leave it there. 

[5] On the tree of life, Samech connects Tipherth (Beauty, Unity, and Love’s healing energies) with Yesod (treasure house of images, tides and cycle manifestations).

[6] If something is actually holding you back- that force is unsustainable. Look at the many examples of successful individuals who were told “no” or “not” about a thing.

[7] If anyone who knows me is reading this, know I’m trying to take my own advice too!

[8] Change is releasing what isn’t you; you can only be you, ultimately. When you as a vessel shifts, so does everything around you.
