CORRESPONDENCES TO PATH TWO

THE SPHERE OF INTENTION

AFFIRMATIONS - Today I intend to ________.

Fill in the blank with your intention for today. It can be anything you already intend to do or something you really want to do. You may use this same affirmation day after day for twenty-one days if you want to make it a permanent part of your daily consciousness. Or you may devise a new affirmation each day. When you have an affirmation that you really want to manifest in your life, it usually does take twenty-one days to make it a part of your consciousness.

Another way to use an Affirmation of Intention is to set an intention to do something you have been procrastinating about doing. Set your intention. Remind yourself several times during the day by repeating this intention. Then do it before you retire for the evening.

ALCHEMY - The second step in Spiritual Alchemy is to decide what you want to do to become the person you want to be. This step is called the Step of Intention. As you know, you can only accomplish what you intend to accomplish. Lacking an intention to change yourself only means that you will not change for the better. Not changing is to backslide as civilization passes you by.

We recommend you write this intention out word for word and repeat it as an affirmation daily for at least twenty-one days. Then we suggest you try the free lessons offered by The Alchemy Fellowship and the Path of the Healing Dragon.

ASTROLOGY - The Sphere of Intention is represented by the Planet Uranus. The planet Uranus is the only planet, asteroid or comet scientists have discovered in our solar system that rotates on it's side. One side of Uranus is in complete eternal darkness while the other side is completely in the light. Intentions bring us to the light (knowledge) and the lack of intentions keeps us in the dark (ignorance).

Scientists believe it was an sudden and abrupt cataclysm that caused this change. But long before scientists arrived at that conclusion, astrologers called Uranus the planet of sudden and abrupt change. Intentions can make you suddenly and abruptly change your life. Uranus is the planet of intentions that abruptly and suddenly change us into the person we want to become. If you don't have any conscious intentions, then your subconscious and unconscious intentions will decide your fate.

We will speak more of astrology toward the end of this course on the Tree of Life after all of the basic parts of astrology have been revealed.

OUR BODY - The Sphere of Intention is located on the left side of our head. It is that part of our mind controlling our left brain. It is also the left side of our face and it reflects our intentions and how we intend to live our lives. If you want to know another person's intentions, pay attention to the left side of their face. If you want to know your own intentions about a particular subject, concentrate on that subject and look at the left side of your own face in a mirror.

CONCENTRATION - Concentration is a focus or our attention on one thing for an extended period of time. The more we concentrate on that "thing," the more we more we learn about it and understand it. This is a function of our left brain. We learn by concentrating our attention on some "thing."

Whatever you want to bring into your life, take a few short breaks during the day and concentrate on it and you'll be surprised at what you can bring into your life.

CONTEMPLATION - Contemplation is concentration on "abstract things." For our purposes, we will define a "thing" as a person, place or object; and "abstract thing" as information, a thought, word, idea, attitude or feeling. We concentrate on things and we contemplate abstract things. Spiritual contemplation happens when we "daydream" about the Divine or the attributes of the Divine. We get into a comfortable position, close our eyes and concentrate on the Divine.

CREATION STEP - We can create, experience or become only that which we intend to create, experience or become. The second step in creating anything is to decide what you intend to create. We cannot create anything in our lives unless and until we intend to do so on some level of our being. You know what you consciously want to create in your life. But you do not know what you intend to create in your life unconsciously or subconsciously because that is hidden from your conscious mind.

The secret here is to make conscious decisions about every part of your life. That way you manifest your conscious intentions.

INTENTIONAL PRAYER - Intentional Prayer is based on the concept that if we change our intentions we can change anything. It's also based on the Principle of Prayer. This principle has actually been proven by scientific experiments. What this means is that we all benefit from the prayers others say for us. We recommend you investigate the Intentional Prayer Network concerning how a few minutes a day praying for others, and they for you, can change your life.

QUANTUM PHYSICS - The science of quantum physics has methodically been proving the existence of the Divine over the past fifty plus years. This proof follows a line of reasoning first postulated by ancient civilizations over 6500 years ago and described by the Tree of Life. To fully understand this process and appreciate the wisdom of our ancient forefathers and foremothers requires an understanding of the first ten paths on the Tree of Life. We will give you the necessary links when you reach that point in your studies.

TAROT - The Sphere of Intention is represented by the Deuces in the Tarot deck and divided into our memory of the physical, mental, emotional and intuitive or psychological areas of our life. A separate teaching on the Tarot is available for students who complete the Tree of Life teaching cycle.
