The Consciousness Compass: The Language of the Soul
A visual meditation to feel the journey
This is part 2 of a 12-part series. If you haven’t seen the compass overview yet, start here: The Consciousness Compass
An intermezzo
This interlude between the explanation of the Consciousness Compass and the first universal value we'll explore is designed to help us reach a deeper layer within our awareness.
Now that you've seen the map—the compass that will guide our journey—it's first time to feel the terrain.
The mind loves to analyze, categorize, and understand. But the soul, our deeper knowing, speaks a different language. It communicates through feelings, intuitions, images, and whispers. Before we explore each of the nine values with our thinking mind, I invite you to first experience them with your feeling heart. To taste the essence before we assign the definition.
Below you will find nine images. Each image represents one of the values from the compass. The goal is not to analyze them or try to figure out which value belongs to which picture. Simply scroll through the images slowly. Let each image sink in. Observe without judgment what arises within you—a sense of recognition, a memory, a question, a feeling of peace, wonder, or perhaps resistance.
There is no right or wrong answer. There is only your unique, personal experience. You can make notes for yourself, but be careful not to start thinking; instead, stay with your feeling.
This is the language of the soul. This is the raw, pure material of consciousness that our minds will later help us shape, interpret, and integrate into our daily lives.
Let's begin this journey not with thought, but with attention. Not with words, but with silence.
Don't just look. Feel. Let each image land. Notice what arises in you.
There is no right or wrong – only your own experience.
A natural process
This visual meditation was the prelude, the silence before the storm of insight. The first, and perhaps most important, step is simply to receive. To be open.
Next week, we will take our first conscious step with the foundation: Curiosity brings Openness.
