by Julie Redstone -
Many people who have been closed are now opening to a deeper sense of life and of themselves. The rational left brain is pondering its own experience and the limitations of that experience and beginning to reach for something else.
Often, what slows down this process and makes it more laborious is the way in which the intellect has been used to protect the self from feeling or knowing certain deeper levels of awareness.
This protection has worked well in many cases, since with a well-honed intellect one can operate very successfully in the world - at least outwardly.
And yet the intellect is not the soul.
Beneath the rational mind and the outer success is the awareness that something else is missing. Eventually, over time, a reaching for that something else takes place.
Help toward making the shift toward greater feeling, intuition, inspiration and softness in general can be had by making efforts in the direction of acknowledging whatever fear may be present toward doing so.
Sometimes, the intellect has done such a good job disguising this fear that it is invisible to the conscious self.
Nevertheless, the turning of the soul toward a deeper level of truth will produce the beginning changes that need to happen to open up a different level of awareness.
The principle of "ask and it shall be given" is true here, for those who desire to know the truth of their deeper nature will find it.
