B98 is often known as Margaret’s bottle. In fact her aura bottle was B1. But when she saw B98 she loved it so much. She said it reminded her of her beloved Australia. I think it reminded her of the blossom of the jacaranda trees in the evening sunlight.

I have long felt this combination also reflects something of Margaret’s place in the Aura-Soma world. Through their working lives Margaret and Vicky worked side by side as equals- each had their own professional skills. However Aura-Soma was born through Vicky and that placed her in centre stage. Everyone wanted to hear what Vicky had to say, and that put Margaret into the background. She found herself playing a secondary, supportive role. In a way she could not be her natural number 1 energy!

The colours of B98 show both the challenges and gifts of Margaret’s new role. From the perspective of challenge we can see in the pale violet of the top fraction the theme of invisibility. Violet is opposite yellow - the colour that shines; yellow is the colour of Vicky’s B5 top fraction! Emotionally violet can also be sadness, in this case the sadness of not being seen, and this becomes especially poignant in when combined with the coral in the base fraction. The coral will resonate with any feelings of of unrequited love, where we feel our giving is greater than our receiving. Margaret was very much put in to this situation. People did not come to see her, instead she had to be the one who took Vicky away from her adoring fans.

There is another side to these colours though of course. Violet is transformative, healing. If we let go of being number 1 then service to something else can become fulfilling and nourishing - not to the ego but to a deeper level of being. Number wise i could say that 98 represents an inner flow 8 that nourishes itself within while the face to the world is that of the 9 - the awareness and completion of the Hermit, who asks nothing from the world as his attention remains focused inside.

The Aura-Soma years asked Margaret to give something up but in return she was able to be part of a much bigger picture and with that came many opportunities for insight, healing and nourishment at deeper levels of her being.

In a future post i will show how the very same violet / coral opportunity is at the heart of the Aura-Soma consultation and how my consultation skills course nourishes this gift.

I saw it was the 20th anniversary of the Berlin Wall coming down yesterday. I was surprised to note the date. 9th November 1989. According to the English way of writing dates that would be: 9.11.89 How strange both capitalism and communism should have suffered attacks on such important symbols on dates with the same number – 9.11 !!!

We all have walls

Speaking of walls I had a kind of “wall-coming-down moment” on a Rainbow Evolution course I presented this weekend in Switzerland. It was the last afternoon of the course and, as I collected the names for the student’s certificates, I had the idea to give one to myself too. Perhaps it was because I had enjoyed and learnt a lot from the course, perhaps it was because there was a collective, intimate feeling in the group, perhaps it was because we were exploring the coral energy just then in the course – and coral is a colour for being part of something …

Struggle

Anyway, whatever the reason that inspired me, I told the group I would make a certificate for myself too. But then while the students were working in pairs and I was filling in the certificates, I felt quite uncomfortable. How could I sign for myself? Was I being presumptuous, arrogant even? You see the coral master is Sanat Kumara and it is the last of the Cosmic Master Beings. After SK comes Maha Chohan, and this is the Greater Teacher. With the coral ray and Sanat Kumara we arrive at the point where we are ready for life itself to become our teacher. Could I really sign to that?

Relief

After tea break we had a feedback session and students shared their experience form the coral exercise. I also shared and told them about my process with the certificate. With a wave of enthusiasm they declared they would all sign it for me. And that’s what happened, I passed it around and they all signed it.

Wall coming down?

Well it is a vital part of coral that we help each other, we are interdependent. If I had stayed in my yellow-thinking-prison about whether I could sign for myself, the breakthrough would not have come. By opening the wall of my ego and sharing my situation with the group the perfect solution came. The gift of that experience was the reminder that i am just a human being, we are all part of the circle of humanity.
