Ascension symptoms (see a list here>>) are typically symptoms that happen as our kundalini rises. But, these conditions shouldn’t need to become permanent fixtures in our lives, leading to diagnoses such as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, food and chemical sensitivities, ADHD and more. So, what else might we need to know if we find ourselves experiencing “ascension symptoms” over a long period of time? To answer this, we can begin to ask question such as;
1. How are we doing when it comes to balancing the yin with the yang?
Our lifestyles are very yang right now. Yang is represented by the “doer,” whereas yin is represented by the “feeler.” The yang energy is rooted in fire, activity, competition, drive and conquest, but this needs to be balanced by the gentler energies of the yin which is rooted in water, receptivity, gentleness, and emotions. Too much yang can “burn” us out. It is too much fire. When burnt out, we need to embrace the yin in order to heal ourselves. Some ascension symptoms can even be caused by low-grade dehydration (the need for more water).
Why do we do this to ourselves?
As a culture we are taught to strive. We are taught that to do more and have more is good, while simplicity and yielding corresponds with laziness or “lack.” We feel driven to keep up with the many expectations that collectively fall upon us, which the bar continually raises. Within these expectations, we are given definitions of “success,” “failure,” “abundance,” “positive” and “negative” that limit us in conscious and unconscious ways, and can lead to the repression or denial of what is considered “negative.” However, in order to balance this out, we can begin to allow ourselves to feel our feelings, let go of perfectionism and learn how to find worth internally, rather than excessively seeking it in the external world. We can also begin to think about ways we can become more loving and gentle towards life and our dreams and goals.
