Our three bodies.
Most would agree that our existence goes deeper than what we see on the surface. We abhor the thought if being “shallow”, and rightly so, because we go so much deeper than that in truth.
For those who are new to this concept, I’m really excited to open the door here because it provides context to some of those “mysterious” things in life!
Please note, the following is a quick review of our three bodies and some people may refer to them with different names. But that’s neither here nor there – they exist – no matter what you call them 😉 Furthermore, whilst they do indeed exist, I’m not going to touch on Auras for this blog.
1. The Material body
Our Material (Physical) body doesn’t really need much introduction because it’s the one we’re most familiar with. But let’s touch on it so we’re all on the same page.
So the first body is, clearly, the physical one. It’s the one we all “see” with our eyes and can “touch’ each day. Even though it’s physical, it’s still just energy, albeit a more “dense” and “low” vibration energy.
This body understands and experiences life through a feedback loop of physical sensations. It requires a continuous flow intelligent energy to operate though and that leads us to the next body.
2. The Astral body
When we go a layer deeper, we find the Astral (Energetic) body. This body is a lighter vibration that lies within the Material body.
It’s this Astral energy body which makes our otherwise inert material body come to life. Ever wondered how your heart knows how and when to pump? How your lungs inhale and exhale without you thinking about it?
Well, we can thank the Astral body for this because one of the many roles it fulfils is fueling the material body with intelligent instruction. We don’t need to cognitively tell it to do every single thing across every cell because the Astral does this for us.
3. The Causal body
Also known as the “Universal” or “One Mind”, the Causal body is our highest vibration self which sits even deeper with us.
It transcends beyond intelligence because it is pure love and infinite wisdom.
It’s the intuitive part of us that knows because it’s already a part of everything. The Causal always knows the right answers, for those who take the time to maintain a connection with it and ask it. If you ever hear me refer to the “true you”, this is the “you” I’m referring to – your deepest yet highest vibrational Causal body. 🙏
Ever wondered how you “just knew” something before it happened? Or made an uncharacteristic decision which led you to some better pathway?
Those moments are often “glimmers” of your inner wisdom surfacing. This is one of the many reasons it’s so important to meditate on a regular basis. Tranquil meditation is one of the only ways (for most of us at least) to commune with our divine, infinite self.
How do they work together?
One might think we get a bit ‘crowded’ with three bodies squished together. If we were talking about nothing but Material bodies, I would agree. But remember, they’re each on a different vibratory frequency!
The Material is dense energy (exterior); the Astral is lighter energy (interior); and the Causal is the highest vibration of our bodies (infinitely deep). It’s like each one of us is a set of adorable little nesting dolls whereby one body sits inside the other – being of service to the next.
So how do they work together if they’re in the same spot but not in the same spot? 🙃
Well, our three bodies are “knitted together” by our seven main “personal” Chakras. Thus, when our Chakras well-balanced and flowing in harmony, our (3) Causal body quietly guides our (2) Astral body which fuels and directs our (1) Material body so it can experience the gift of life.
Help your entourage.
But for many, instead of working from the inside-out, this flow moves backward. The person makes decisions based on the outer world (material experiences) first and never listens to their inner intelligence. They can’t even comprehend the fact that there’s all-knowing ancient wisdom within them.
Let this be your moment to break from that backward flow. To choose something which makes your heart sing. To follow the path which leads to the release of your best and most truthful self.
Whether that’s through learning Chakra basics or Advanced Chakras with me – or through some other way – let this be your time to make that positive change in your life. As ever, big love to you 💫🤗💗
Love this Melissa. “Big Love” to the three of you also.
Thank you for stopping by Helene, I’m so happy you enjoyed this! And thank you for the big love — my 3 bodies return it in kind 🥰 Big love always!
