What is the Inner Child?
Having already established the multi-dimensionality of existence and the Cosmos, we begin to explore a critical element of that dimensional awareness: the Inner Child.
The child self has been around for as long as humans have peppered the planet. Look at the fairy tales and the way the innocent one succeeds or overcomes the challenges, how the struggle of good and evil must be overcome, how journeys and adventures are taken, how little ones can communicate with the fairies, animals, and “imaginary beings”…
We all are aware that there is a part of us that feels vulnerable, a part that is filled with joy, a part that loves to play, a part that creates, a part that wants to be loved, a part that pushes the world away at times, a part that feels lost and lonely, a part that feels overwhelmed and out of control…
Hello, little precious one…let’s start seeing how we can re-educate, clarify, assist in releasing the wounds and misperceptions, nurture, protect, enjoy…and finally create that elusive happy childhood…
Some perspective on your inner child
- Though formal work regarding the inner child began in the late sixties, the presence of the precious one has been in and out of humanity since its first arrival here in the prehistoric times that recorded history refuses to acknowledge. Even Christ said, “Lest you become like a little child, you shall not enter the Kingdom of Heaven”
- Curious how the infant enters his incarnation, completely aware of who she is as an infinite expression of the Christ Essence vibrating uniquely as I Am, but supremely vulnerable, dependent, and relatively helpless to move about in his physical vehicle. It is as if it was set up for challenge and an adventure unlike any other in the Cosmos. The energy is raw and flowing, oscillating in the now moment in direct response to the events and influences of the environment. The infant is primarily still a spiritual being with a profound awareness that cannot be spoken…silenced, if you will, by the choice to return to the 3rd dimension and walk the walk of remembering and reclaiming full awareness in the flesh.
- The child has always been the bearer of change, bringing joy, chaos, challenge to the parents, shifting awareness and focus and purpose, restimulating the parent’s own unprocessed childhood memories. In some ways, it seems like a doomed prospect. But, honestly, having taken that journey countless times, I realize now that nothing could be more perfect…more revealing, more rewarding…than the winding way it has been laid out in this dimension.
- Everything that has occurred to the outer child impacts the inner child, especially in the years of pre birth to seven. At seven the body becomes fully incarnated as the veil of awareness slides over the child’s conscious self (though this is actually changing in these remarkable times of transition in Aquarian frequency). The maternal and familial influences are strong as they seed the energetic being with energy, emotion, patterns, ideas, beliefs, etc. All this aligns to create a frequency filled with energetic memory that does her best to follow his personal intention for incarnation. The big plan is so much larger than that, however. Multiple levels are simultaneously in action: the child’s intended purpose, the past life tendrils, the karmic infiltration and debts, the growing and evolving relationships with the family and other significant players, the current shifting natural environment, the cultural influences of the community, society, country, and world that the little one incarnates into, and even the greater celestial influences impacting all of humanity are swirling around and through this precious being seeking attention and focus and decisive action…
- The Inner Child holds the Divine Template of the I Am That I Am expressing as Me. She is the very essence that has transcended countless incarnations past and future. He has been called the Soul Essence and she lives in the Heart, dwelling expectedly in an expansive place of wonder.
- The inner child’s language is emotion and the physical body. She communicates through sensation and feeling. By design, emotion is a raw force entering through the back of the second chakra. It feed the organic response to the moments of living. The emotion rises and falls as it moves through the flow out of the being. The physical design of the human is to be self clearing. Through the incessant circle of the uninterrupted breath the energies elicited by experience are processed and released. Parental injunctions, interventions, behaviors, words, emotion interfere with the child’s natural cleansing process. The impact is that the perfect system is interrupted, which begins the storing of the unsaid and the raw intensity of the emotion unfelt. It stores primarily in the chakras in tissue and cells in all the energetic bodies. Continued storing through repetitive action creates dis-ease. The child’s role is to survive. So, given the circumstances, she makes quick decisions about how to do that, decisions often uninformed and lacking the big picture. These decisions soon become the very patterns, thoughts, and subconscious beliefs that determine how we show up in our world. They stay until they are cleared by re-education, energetic release, disease, shock, etc.
