REFLECTION A LA HERMETICA

Reviewing the most basic principles of optics, light rays incident on the horizontal interface between materials of different density (composition) are both reflected and refracted. The diagram above shows an incident light ray traveling through air, and striking a pane of glass. The reflected light ray is shown in the upper right quadrant of the diagram, and the refracted ray in the lower right.

Although adepts are able to visualize both reflection and refraction (the process of auric vision), human eyes have trained themselves to see only reflected light. What humans see is the color that is not absorbed. So, if you see blue, the color of the item is actually everything but blue, and is reflecting the blue. This is true of everything you see, no matter what color it may be.

We must recognize that auric vision is inclusive of all of your five senses. I have many students that have auric smell and taste, yet have trouble dealing with refracted light. For now we will discuss reflected light. The incident light that actually allows you to see the reflected light is invisible. We’ve all seen how prisms bend light passing through them to create the entire spectrum of visible light. Because the crystal has already bent the light, the colors reflect, but you do not see the incoming light. Much more about this will be coming in the post on refracted light.

One of the more common problems that people create for themselves is wearing reflective color that actually weakens chakra areas in parts of their bodies where they may be experiencing difficulties. For example, if someone suffers migraine headaches, we are dealing with the purple chakra, the 6th chakra. As higher self attempts to send energy to your physical vehicle to assist you in maintaining health, equilibrium, and happiness, if you wear your purple blouse, you are reflecting that particular light which would be most helpful away from you. As another example, if you had an abdominal problem, you obviously would not want to wear yellow. If you had a heart problem, you would not want to wear green..

In conjunction with this, it is important to realize that energy comes in on the left and out on the right. Theosophically, the strongest position of intake is the little finger of the left hand. If you wear a reflective ring, e.g., turquoise, lapis lazuli, chrysicolla, you will stop that energy from being absorbed in your body. So, for example if you had COPD, asthma, sinusitis, sore throat, or difficulty expressing yourself, even on a test at school, (all 5th/blue chakra issues) wearing this reflective blue stone would only impede higher self from supplying you with the necessary energy to heal or to improve your expressive ability. Conversely, that same stone or ring worn on the right would hold that energy in and promote healing. On the other hand, if you are going out for a job interview or taking a test, you certainly would not want that reflective blue stone on the right hand, because it would impede you from expressing outwardly.

Let’s take the case of a person with diabetes or a strong disposition to diabetes and apply the basic Hermetic and ayurvedic principles. What should we do? 1. Do not wear yellow. 2. A reflective yellow stone on the right would help hold in the energy from higher self and assist you in healing, or at least controlling this. 3. Of course, the wearing of a refractive yellow, whether it be citrine, yellow, chrysoberyl, heliodor, or yellow sapphire would greatly enhance your control and healing ability in this instance. Following these basic principles, you are certainly capable of reviewing self and things you wish to do, and applying them to any part of your vehicle.

IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO REALIZE THAT GOLD IS A STABILIZER. IF YOU ARE TRYING TO CURE OR CREATE SOMETHING, TO GET BETTER, OR TO ENHANCE SOMETHING, YOUR STONE SHOULD BE SET IN STERLING SILVER. HOWEVER, IF YOU ARE TRYING TO STABILIZE AN ISSUE, I.E., MAINTAIN IT THE WAY IT IS, YOU WOULD USE GOLD. THIS TYPE OF INFORMATION CAN BE VERY BENEFICIAL.
