The Law Of Polarity

The Law of Polarity is one of the universal laws that govern our existence. It is the principle that everything in the world exists on a continuum and has an opposite.

These polar opposites are necessary for balance in the universe. For example, there is summer and winter, day and night, good and evil, love and hate, and so on.

Think about this in your own life. Your body, for example, has a right side and a left side, and for every positive thought you have, there is a negative version. Sometimes we feel happy and sometimes we feel the opposite. We are all made up of opposites, just like everything else.

The spiritually most significant aspect of this polarity is that it is absolutely necessary and valuable. Yes, both the good and the bad! How can we rise higher if we have never been at the lower end of the spectrum?

How can we appreciate the abundance in our lives if we have never experienced any lack? We would not know the difference between good and bad. Without darkness there is no light.

The next important lesson from the Law of Polarity is how we choose to perceive life. If you measure your lower leg from the base of the knee to the floor, you will get the same number from the floor to the base of the knee. Nothing changes between the two measurements, just the wording is different. Is the cup ‘half empty’ or ‘half full’? It depends on our personal perception and the wording we choose.

Everything you see or hear or experience in any way at all is specific to you. You create a universe by perceiving it, so everything in the universe you perceive is specific to you ~ Douglas Adams

Are you the kind of person who sees the glass half full rather than half empty? Yes, it is basically the same thing, but the perception is different. A glass that’s half full means there’s room for more; there’s room for improvement or growth, instead of an opposite direction of loss or decline. There is always a good or a positive to every negative belief, thought or action.

When you look in the mirror, what do you see? Do you see a happy, joyful person or a sad, depressed person? Do you see beauty in what you might perceive as ugliness? Our perception is what matters in life. It is how you see life, others and yourself that really matters. Which end of the spectrum do you choose every day?

In a new relationship we often see the person as perfect in the beginning and later, when it falls apart, the person suddenly becomes completely imperfect. Has the person really changed? No, our perception of the person has changed.

The Law of Polarity teaches us to see both sides of every circumstance, event and person in our lives. When we see the negative in something or someone, we should take a moment to consider the opposite, the positive, and then our perception changes.

The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness ~ Matthew 6:22

Our free will choices create the life we live each day, and every thought is a choice. We choose the positive or we choose the negative, the good or the bad. We choose to laugh or to cry. We choose to love or to hate.

When I started doing psychic readings, I was taught from the beginning by spirit that all messages come from a place of love, and not fear. However, how it is received by the person I am reading for will depend on how they choose to perceive it. In a reading my clients only receive what I receive from spirit, but how they perceive it or take it to heart is their choice. They can choose love or they can choose fear. Spirit, however, always wants us to choose love.
