Stillness 7-2: You don’t have to bedeck yourself in emerald bracelets or sparkling rings, or to wear rich green velvet, or even to walk under the shimmering green leaves in the heart of the forest, to feel your green ray. It shines from the inside out… it resides in your heart.
Green is the color of sympathy, courage, wisdom, and devotion. It’s the color of truth, hope, and love. We think of the planet Venus as the green planet of love, and Venus is also our green goddess of justice, harmony, compassion, and sacred relationships.
If you’re feeling conflicted or out of balance, try focusing on serenity, confidence, and your innate purity. Here’s a beautiful meditation for this: Focus on your heart chakra, which resides in the center of your chest. Imagine the great green glow of emerald green sparkling from deep within your heart chakra. Breathe the color even more deeply into your chest area. Deep—deep and as you exhale, imagine the green rays expanding out like a sphere all around you, out your sides, your back, your front, your feet, your head. As you do so, look into the future from all sides—trust your visions and heart’s desires.
Our green ray nourishes our aura with hope, encouragement, intelligence, and abundance. We remember to think and act from our heart rather than our heads. We remember the depth of unconditional love and compassion within ourselves, and we open ourselves to receive that from other people, angels, and nature. Alice Bailey calls the green ray “the Ray of Harmony,” and yet harmony can only occur through balancing and reconciling conflict. Only when conflict exhausts itself can we know what the mystic Juliana of Norwich meant when she stated many centuries ago: “All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of thing shall be well.”
