We can nourish positive karmic seeds by keeping our intentions and attention focused on the positive around us. Our environment also provides input that can affect what seeds come to maturity.

For example, during the first few months of 2010 (Dec. 2009 – March, 2010) our Pitta energy was strongly stimulated by planetary influences, not the least of which was Mars in retrograde. This set the stage for a lot of aggressive movement both within our own bodies and in the planet at large. In Ayurvedic medicine, pitta energy is the psychophysiological source of your personal fire, kept in balance and flow by water. You can have too much of one or too little of the other. The goal, of course is to live in balance.

Pitta energy in balance brings warmth, confidence and protection. Out of balance, pitta energy can easily become destructive. If the fire aspect is too weak or low, one can become ill, depressed, and fatigued. If it’s too strong the warmth becomes hot and acidic. The confidence goes critical and obsessive and protection becomes aggressive, irritable  and argumentative.

The planet Mars represents aggression, passion, anger and energy. Therefore, Mars in retrograde is liable to fuel the fire and nourish your karmic seeds related to aggression. However, the energy could also be used to strengthen your courage and confidence.

Fire is the one element that can, under the right conditions, transform all the other elements. Fire burns wood, evaporate water, consumes air and ether, and liquefies both metal and earth. Therefore those who use fire properly can manifest high levels of spiritual manifestation. That’s why every shamanic tradition has some reference to a “ring of fire.” Therefore, if we consciously nourish balanced protection and strengthen our confidence, these next twelve weeks or so could be very productive and positive.

To help us on the mental, emotional and spiritual levels, meditation is essential for protection. On the physical level, it’s our immune system that protects us from infection and disease (the physical manifestations of aggression), so it makes sense to care for it properly.

It’s the immune system’s job to correctly identify and destroy foreign or harmful material that will compromise the health of your body. So I have come up with the latest Intuitive Learning Game entitled:

Balancing Your Pitta Energy

Five Steps to Improve Your Immune Function

Step One:

Take a few moments to meditate on this Pitta Energy Symbol – Chili from our home state of New Mexico.
Relax and tap on your thymus (located on your upper chest – in the center where the “bump” is). Doing so will help you to activate information about the health of your immune system.

Now go through the remaining steps using Intuitive Learning Circles to help you find out more about your pitta energy and what you can do to improve your immune function.

Step Two:

Have you been ignoring subtle messages telling you that you are off track in some way?

Step Three:

Use this affirmation with the next circle to change subconscious attitudes and beliefs that may be causing some trouble.
“I abandon any tendency I have to trick or sabotage my highest good.”
“I adopt creative methods that will assist me in benefiting myself and others.”

Step Four:

Find out what’s wrong.
Look at this circle and ask yourself,
“What is irritating me in my diet?”
Make a list. These are the foods, spices, herbs, supplements, etc. that you might want to cut back on.

Step Five:

Find out what will help.

What foods would help you get back in or stay in balance?
Make another list to remind you what foods are helpful.

Congratulations!

You now have a list of do’s and don’t's to help you stay in balance. Keep this game handy, as things may change quickly.

Psychological stress is introduced into the mind/body system. Life events that cause stress includes the changing of roles change in environment or critical loss. The authors note that stress (or stresses) usually precedes the onset of cancer six to eighteen months prior to the cancer manifestation.
The reaction to the stress, and not the actually stressful event itself, causes the chain of events. Depression and despair sends it’s signals out to the limbic system causing the physical reactions that make people susceptible to cancer.
The limbic system (the visceral brain) “is integral to all those activities essential to the protection of the organism”. (p. 94) This system records information which is used to activate the body’s protective system. Since the fight or flight response is usually an inappropriate reaction, suppression of that response and the depression that results, causes this system to record the depression and it’s signals are sent into the body’s protective system.
These messages are recorded in the hypothalamus. This area of the brain controls the immune system and regulates the pituitary gland. It is from these recorded messages from the brain that these system take direction in function.
The immune system acts on the message of depression and despair by suppressing immune function. White blood cells and other functions that combat cancerous growth are limited, leaving the body susceptible to foreign invasion. In response to stress, the hypothalamus triggers the pituitary gland to change the hormonal balance of the body. This can cause a higher susceptibility to carcinogenic substances. Also, this hormonal imbalance can increase the production of the number of abnormal, cancerous cells.
With the suppression of the immune system, increased susceptibility to carcinogenic substances and the increase in the number of cancerous cells, the environment for cancerous growth is optimal.
Reversing this model the basis for the Simontons recovery program. Input of new and hopeful thinking as well as visualizations that strengthen the immune system change the recorded messages in the hypothalamus bringing the body back into hormonal balance and activating the immune system. In part two of their book, (“Pathways to Health”), the authors present the whole course of their therapy.

Similar Components and Psychological Characteristics in the Life History of Cancer Patients?

The Simontons found that many people who have developed cancer tend to have a belief that their life meaning equates with what they are doing for others. There seems to be identification with the outside world for their inner value. Many female cancer patients, who lost the ability to take care of the house, kids and husband, or find meaning as a caregiver for another, began to develop cancer. Men, on the other hand, found that when their careers ended or were drastically changed, their basic definitions of themselves changed. This stress contributed to the onset of cancer.
People who do not feel that they can meet their emotional needs without an excuse will also use cancer as a way to deal with emotional issues. Often times, people reward illness by giving attention, loving and nurturing because they feel sorry for the ill patient. It is this sympathy that drives people to become cancer patients. The description of the individuals above (care giving of everyone else) that brings about this situation. If one believes that other people cannot handle their lives, out of pity he often takes control of the situation for everyone around him. When the individual then has difficulty dealing with his own issues (which often happens if he has been ignoring them for a long time) the idea that people will now feel sorry for him may initiate the onset of illness. Sympathy is one of the most destructive emotions in man.
There are other ways of being that can also contribute to the onset of disease. People who tend to have a negative outlook in life send messages to the brain, which causes a suppression of immune system functions, and increase the production of cancer cells. Also, people who tend to get stressed out easily also (through suppression of immune system function) are prime targets in developing cancer.
It is important for the health of people that they develop their own identity, allow others to do the same for their own (and those of others) sake. Also, a positive, forward thinking attitude assists in an individual ability to remain healthy and cancer free.
