#WATER #SNAKE #AHIRBUDHNYA
The Water snake is known as Ahirbudhnya. His name can be broken in two Ahir means the upper celestial realm and Budhnya means the deep foundation.
The roots come from below but to rise they must have a foundation. The secret of polarities and exchange is implicit in his name.
The lunarly watery snake Ahirbudhnya relates to the downward circuitry and foundation of Kundakini Shakti.
This snake teaches us the way of sinking to the depths, going way down into the deep receptive waters of the soul.
The Moon serpent Ahirbudhnya is another form of the storm god Rudra, this time in his raining raging downpour.
This Moon serpent is full of the secrets of the ocean depths. To voyage with him is to go into places where one unknown, unseen and forgotten. The power is deep in the depths.
In this ritual of #UttaraBhadrapada we take a beautifully terrifying step into lunarly watery depth.
One attempts such a step by summoning the watery forces of emotion by accessing deeply underground currents of feeling.
To centralise the watery forces of emotion and feed them to the Kundalini Moon channel of the spinal serpent of water is the awakening g of the lunar channel.
The Water Door
When watery emotion and power is expressed haphazardly without foundation, then it floods and drowns out the potential that is inherent in the forces of feeling.
But when watery emotion is focussed and strategically applied to the centralised position of the Kundalini Moon serpent in the inner secret spinal channel, then it is nourished unto Kundalini Shakti Jagra. This translates as the awakening of the primal psycho/physical serpent power of the human energy system that the Tantrics refer to as Kundalini Shakti.
By working with the Moon serpent ritualistically, we awaken to the buried treasure of watery emotion.
Feeling
What is watery emotion?
It is emotion that is moist, emotion with juice and tears, potentially nourishing if brought to vision, or potentially drowning and smothering if in slumber.
In the ritual work of Uttara Bhadrapada, one work with the Tantric invocation of the star forces of lunarly watery power.
Uttara Bhadrapada translates as the mature beautifully terrifying steps.
Each heartbeat is such a step.
The Yogins listen to the heart on each step of this journey between life and death. This journey between death and life.
The Bhadrapada Nakshatra’s are bridges between the steps that join life and death and death and life.
We will indeed attempt to take a mature beautifully terrifying step.
The heart will not retreat.
