The Mars Ray
The Mars Ray helps you to feel more grounded and at home in your physical body and it brings courage and strength. It lessens your worries and fears of what might be and helps you be more present in the now. It helps you feel safer in the face of aggression and is great for those who have a weak constitution. The Mars Ray is part of the Eternal Light Healing system.
The Base Chakra
The Mars Ray works to open and activate the base chakra to enable you to be fully grounded in your physical presence here on earth, enlivening your physical body and connecting you with the power and protection of Mother Earth.
When the base chakra is fully open and activated, you have more physical energy and you feel more comfortable in your physical body because you are more connected to the Love and protection of Mother Earth.
The feeling of greater physical safety has a stabilizing effect on the emotions and brings inner courage, helps with decision making, and helps maintain focus and strength of purpose. It is great for those who carry much fear and anxiety, or for those who have a lack of enthusiasm for life or who suffer from depression.
The Mars Ray carries the power, strength and courage we associate with the great warlords of old. When this fearless strength is used for the good of humankind, enormous progress can be made in civilization. This power and strength is there in all of us to use when we activate and energise our base chakra.
Kundalini
In working on the base chakra, the Mars Ray is also helping to activate the kundalini energy and encourage it to rise up the spine. As your kundalini energy moves up your spine, it releases fears and blocks in all the chakras it goes through, activating these chakras and bringing greater spiritual awareness.
Spleen Energy
The Mars Ray also works on the spleen, which is located on the left side, beneath the lower ribs. In traditional Chinese medicine, the spleen, stomach and pancreas are the digestive organs associated with the earth element. On a physical level these organs help digest our food, but on an emotional level they are responsible for ‘digesting’ life on a mental and emotional level.
The emotion associated with the spleen is worry. Too much pensiveness, worry and insecurity can weaken the spleen and hence your energy in general. The Mars Ray works on the spleen to relax and cleanse the energy around it bringing emotional and mental balance.
Opens the Heart Chakra
Feeling safe in your physical presence here on earth is a necessary part of opening the heart chakra. The Mars Ray helps with this as it opens and activates the base chakra.
Some people feel this ray working directly on their physical heart, strengthening and stabilizing it. It is also thought to strengthen the blood. When you see the healing energy clairvoyantly, it appears to be red, symbolizing its connection to the heart and the blood. This also shows its connection to the base chakra which when open radiates the red colour into one’s aura.
How I Experience the Mars Ray
The Mars Ray feels to me like a focused ray of energy that comes from above me on my left side, coming through my aura to my base chakra and spleen area. The symbol used to amplify this ray reminds me of the ray of energy I feel coming to my left when grounding this ray.
When this energy is coming through me, I feel a buzzing feeling in the soles of my feet as the energy is travelling down through my feet towards the earth to ground and stabilize me. It opens the chakras on my feet as it does so, and there is a similar effect in my hands.
In meditation this energy brings a silence to my mind which I love. When I have been working with it a lot I feel a deep silence around me, especially outside. I have a strong logical mind, and a tendency to worry, so this ray helps bring me a great feeling of calm. It makes me feel safe and my mind goes silent. I feel more still when I am filled with this Ray; I no longer feel the need to rush around to make things ok as I feel that all is well.
When I worry, I can often sense the fear coming from my spleen area. As mentioned above, in Traditional Chinese Medicine, the spleen is connected to our worry and over thinking. This ray completely calms my spleen area and releases me from worry and restores a natural calm.
