“Life is without meaning. You bring the meaning to it. The meaning of life is whatever you ascribe it to be. Being alive is the meaning. Love is a friendship set to music.” ― Joseph Campbell
When we discover or give birth to our true Selves, the Creator also comes into our lives. When we become aware of our connection with the creative source of the universe, we also begin to become aware of our part in creation.
However unified our consciousness becomes, and however true we are to ourselves, most of us are still confined by our conditioning, by the social constraints of society, and by natural laws.
When the Creator Archetype begins to be active in our lives, we often alternate between exaltation and potentially paralyzing fear.
Creating a life means to honor our experience honestly, without denial, but also as worthy and valuable. This means accepting your life as the right life for you, your body and mind as the right ones for you, even your pathologies and bad habits (although in this case, it may be the process of overcoming or dealing with them that will teach you just the lesson you need). It means coming to recognize the form of your own beauty, whether it is the beauty of your body, your mind or your character.
There are five levels of the Creator:
Shadow - Creation of negative circumstances, limited opportunities; obsessive creation, workaholism
Call - Daydreams, fantasies, images or flashes of inspiration
Spiral One - Opening to receive visions, images, hunches, inspiration
Spiral Two - Allowing yourself to know what you really want to have, do or create
Spiral Three - Experiments with creating what you imagine – allowing yourself to let your dreams come true
Imagine you had a magic wand and could change anything in your world you wanted for yourself and others. Allow yourself to imagine what you would change, and staying in the dreamy state of mind, allow the drama to unfold in your mind so that you witness the effects of your work. Allow yourself some time to process the results – to enjoy your successes and to regret any miscreations.
