Magenta…Love in Small Things.
There are many of us that sometimes experience the emptiness felt within as we experience the diversity of life challenges that come our way. When the comprehension of our human love doesn’t seem to be enough to deal with problems as we see them. There does not appear to be enough love, and often there is an emptiness that is mirrored up for us within the colour MAGENTA known on a Spiritual level as Divine Love.
A symbol of love that goes beyond human understanding. It is often experienced for people as they loose their sense of coping within a difficult situation or the traumatic loss of a loved one. It is the letting go that can sometimes happen and they open within themselves to experiencing a love that is profound. The external situation may not change but something changes in them as they experience this love, thus the ability to respond is somehow different. They experience strength from a deeper place within.
There will be others that may experience that inner emptiness if they have had a traumatic childhood or simply difficult childhood and aspects of self have been repressed. It is then in later life that the mind can become engaged in trying to fill that inner sense of emptiness to which, of course, is too no avail. Sometimes support is needed in the journey of re- owning the repressed self.
My mother taught me a lesson in life one that I remember well, though sometimes loose the capacity to carry out. It was to put love into little things. Her way of doing this was by putting flowers into her home arranging them with care in little nic-nac vases that cost very little. It was a simple act but a powerful one for as you start in little steps to put love into your life situation, it somehow grows, it expands in this magical way and you find that you have more love to give. Its almost like the doors open in life to you and the opportunity to give love grows.
It is interesting that my mother knew this spiritual lesson even though she was not aware that this is the lesson that lies in the colour Magenta. “Love in small things”
I remember the wisdom in a story of where a lady felt she had lost the love within her relationship with her husband. A minister told her to start doing small loving acts as if she did love him. The magic happened and the love returned to the relationship.
Sometimes these simple acts for some reason seem to be the hardest ones to carry out. Perhaps a little too simple for the mind which can get caught up in the intrigue of problems.
Time for a little reflection ….how does magenta or pink engage with you….does it engage……have you noticed it before……what does it feel like…. you love it…or maybe a little sense of dislike…or you may find a sense of nurture.
