Ask Michael: January 2015

Ask Michael – January 4, 2015

Channel: Troy Tolley

 

ViP:
There seems to be an orderly progression of "body" vs Plane (of existence) in the 3 lower planes: starting with the physical plane (in a physical body, as Personality) to the astral plane (in an astral body, as the Role in Essence), to the causal plane (as a reunited causal body, or Entity.)

 

However, beyond the akashic plane, there are the Mental, Messianic, and Buddhaic planes. And, I don't know whether a reunited Cadre always "starts" on the Mental plane first, and then when its Energy Ring recombines, it does so on the Messianic plane, and so forth for Sphere and the Buddhaic plane, and so forth. How does the progression of reuniting go (from Cadre reuniting into Energy Ring and so forth), how do these correspond to the Mental/Messianic/Buddhaic bodies, and what Planes are they associated with?

 

MEntity: If we are understanding your question correctly: PHYSICAL - Fragment; ASTRAL - Fragments/Entities; CAUSAL - Entities/Cadres; MENTAL - Cadres/Energy Rings; MESSIANIC - Spheres/Arrangements; BUDDHIC - Composition/Design.

 

ViP: OK, thanks - I seem to remember reading though that Infinite Soul manifestations were those of Cadres and could occur from any of the 3 high planes, is that wrong?

 

MEntity: No, that is correct. But keep in mind that the Infinite Soul must "step down" in energy, so it first manifests through one kind of grouping, then another, and so on to the fragment.

 

ViP: OK, thank you. I can follow up more another time.

 

MEntity:
For instance, a fragment will channel the Entity of the Cadre of the Energy Ring of the Sphere through which Infinte Soul is manifesting.

 

So it is a process.

 

Brennetta: Hello Michael, I'd like elaboration of the Solar body type in a similar way to Kurtis's earlier question about the Jovial Body Appearance (including male and female celebrity examples of those close to 100%)

 

MEntity:
No Body Type is near 100% for anybody, but the Solar Body Type is rarely ever more than 25% of a Body Type. The Solar Body Type adds a kind of fuel, light, and radiance to any other Body Type it is mixed with, and allows for the mix of Body Types outside of linear progression. So a Venus with Solar would tend to be a "brighter" Venus than a Mars without Solar. By "brighter" we mean that there would tend to be more energy, more innocence, more of that radiance that is often quite attractive and magnetic or charismatic.

 

Because of its pivotal nature, Solar allows for such mixes as Lunar/Solar/Saturn, which is usually not possible, since the progression of Body Type mixes are locked into Lunar/Venus/Mercury/Saturn/Martial/Jovial

 

On its own, higher ranges of Solar can only be depicted in fictional portrayals, such body types as that of the fairies, "Tinkerbell," and some elven depictions are higher in Solar than is usually possible. Peter Pan is another example.

 

In "real life" the Solar is often hidden by the other planets in the mix. Even Snow White, who is a fictional portrayal of high Solar has Pluto and Lunar dominant.

 

In "real life" the higher the Solar, the more androgynous the effect. Angelina Jolie has high Solar with Saturn. Rupaul has high Solar with Saturn.

 

In short, the appearance is not always as obvious as the effect. Solar is either quite radiant, or can be quite hyper-charged and abrasive.

 

TyroneT: I'd also like to join in on the body type questions: Can you elaborate on the Saturnian Body Appearance, I'd also like celebrity examples of those close to 100% Saturnian if you could (male and female examples if possible)

 

MEntity:
Saturnian Body Types tend to be tall, but not always. However, even when not tall by literal standards, Saturnian Body Types can often SEEM even taller than they are. But their key consistency is in the durability. They can tend to endure extremes of temperature, environment, and threats more than most body types.

 

When literally tall, the Body Type tends to be lean, slow, and deliberate. When figuratively tall, the Body Type tends to fall into the Nature area.

 

In appearance, this Body Type can come across as either daunting or distanced, or come across as guiding and trustful.

 

One of the more famous examples would be Abraham Lincoln, but there is also Angelina Jolie and Rupaul that was just mentioned. In addition to these, there are Yao Ming, Brooke Shields, Taylor Swift, Tilda Swinton, Quentin Tarantino, Uma Thurman,...

 

Janet: Michael, last year at this time you gave us a list of the 7 elements that prompted learning in the year of the Priest, in the form of questions to ask ourselves. Can you provide the 7 elements that prompt our learning in this Scholar year?

 

MEntity:

 

1. What efforts did you make to validate your theories through experiences?
2. Were you willing to be wrong as a way to learn?
3. Are you telling the truth, or is your reality telling the truth? (if they are in conflict).
4. Are you participating in life, or presuming you are a separate thing from your life?
5. What conditions have you placed on receiving and giving Love in your life?
6. Is your past a "guidepost" or have you turned it into a "hitchpost?"
7. What do you find yourself distracted with in trying to get others to learn (about you, about themselves, about life)?

 

To elaborate upon 3) are you contributing to the creation of your life, or do you feel you are the created result of your life.

 

Is this a range of questions you were seeking?

 

Janet: Yes. Thank you Michael!

 

brian: Asking for Kurtis: Hi Michael, like last time with Jovial, I'd like an elaboration of the Martial Body Type Appearance, with some celebrities(male and female) that might show it off well. :)

 

MEntity:
The Martial Body Type in terms of Appearances will almost always have skin pigmentation in the form of freckles or similar. The more a body has freckles, the more it has Martial. The greater the combination that is red hair and light skin, the greater the Martial. Many "albino" individuals have high Martial, while mixed with Neptune or Uranus. Martial pigmentation is not limited to those with lighter skin, of course, but the key is in the differentiation between the base skin color and the pigmentation that are "freckles" or spots. Red undertones to skin color and hair is Martial, with the redder the more Martial.

 

Examples might be Mick Hucknall, Julianne Moore, Olivia Munn, Michael Fassbender, Amy Adams, Robert Redford, Seth Green, Debra Messing, and with Martial Appearance bleeding into Nature there is Russell Crowe.

 

JanaK:
Referring to the session on Living as Essence, and more specifically to the Artisan part, how can one more specifically determine if one's life is a true story?

 

I am talking about the part where you said “The Artisan who lives as Essence must then do the sometimes painful task of determining if the life is a true story, or if it is only based on a true story, or if it is a lie, altogether. Is this the story I meant to create? Or am I covering up my true story?"

 

MEntity: The key for the Artisan is in the intention. When there is a disconnect between what is created and what is intended to be created, this can result in lying or delusion. The issue is not in the distance between intent and result, but in how that distance is handled. The Artisan Essence who is not lying will own the distance and do the work to close that distance, if possible. If the distance between intent and result is not possible to close, then that is owned, as well, and there is no lying about this. For example, it may have been intended to create a life as a pop star singer and this never came to pass. To the Artisan Essence, that is okay. It is not failure, and there is no reason to lie about it. Lying might show up in blaming the life, blaming others, faulting a lack of skills, etc. but owning it means that it simply was not created. It might still be possible, but the distance between intent and result is allowed to be true.

 

JanaK: kind of taking responsibility for it then?

 

MEntity:
For the Artisan living a "true story," it means that not all intentions will have come to pass, but that this distance is allowed. Allowing that distance is not the same thing as conceding or resigning.

 

The further the life is from what one intended, the more easily it can come to be in denial or delusion.

 

However, the more that the distancing between intent and result is allowed and honored, the more focus the creative resources tend to be on closing that distance. When that distance is denied, creative resources are used to ignore that distance.

 

When an Artisan is awake, these questions and considerations tend to be enough. For the Artisan that is asleep, no amount of questioning can tend to break through. It usually takes a turning point, intervention, or a complete crash.

 

We must conclude here for today. Good day to each of you.
