Shiva & shakti

9/22/2014

All this weeks classes, we will play and dance with the 2 opposite forces of gravity 'pulling' down, and the anti gravity rising up. 

Already since a long time the opposites of 'forces' or energies have inspired my classes. I feel them when I move; when I press down through my body, my body rises. When I exhale I feel the weight of my body sinking down, when I inhale I feel expansion going up. When I am in handstand I feel that only the press down through the hands will bring the rest of my body into more extension. When I am basing my partner, their weight helps me to be empowered and keep them balanced in the air.

More energetically I notice the inspiration of spirit, makes me manifest on this earth, it is the grace of God, of Shiva that is manifesting through mother earth, shakti. I feel in life sometimes I need to be strong, and make decisions, be clear and find direction. And sometimes I need to be soft, receptive and receiving, go with the flow.. all is there to find balance in opposites.

Look at the picture of the unification of Shiva and Shakti, in many pictures shown as the 2 energies united in one body. Shiva, spirit descending, Shakti earth rising, and both cannot be without the other. The dance of light and dark, feminine and masculine, yin and yang, giving and receiving, rising and falling. 

In this picture you also see how Shiva and Shakti represent both sides of the brain, and the crossway expression in the body, the kundalini rising expressed at the 3rd eye.. and much more symbolism of the dance of opposites, the dualism united in one. For this weeks classes we will just look at the rising and falling, up and down, inhale and exhale... ~

How do the opposite energies dance in your life? How do they express in your body?
