Chi Crew : Digital Dada
Hey there! My name is Digital Dada, but everyone in the Chi Crew calls me Dida. I am responsible for communication; on the one hand I look after the Members Area and Enso Elea, i.e. the Inner Circle of the Gnothi Seauton Community, on the other hand I process all digital aspects of your orders in the Chi Store.
Chi Crew : Djeli
Hi! My name is Djeli ("Dscheli") and I am the shaman in Dada's Chi Crew. Since we will be taking over Dada's social media presence in the future, she asked me to introduce myself in more detail today. My name comes from West Africa and is actually not a name, but a concept. In West African Tradition, Djelis are the shamans who heal by telling stories. Among the Celts, for example, these were the bards.
Enjoy The Silence Festival
I was booked to do a shamanic Reisa during the Opening Ceremony of this year’s Enjoy the Silence Festival. We gathered on one of the beautiful hills surrounding lake Como and celebrated life and love to the pumping basslines of Psycore music for three days, and to me it felt like a proper healing ceremony, where everyone was their own shaman, and the music was the icaro.
Chi
Chi is another word for life energy, i.e. the force that breathes life into matter. This power appears to modern man as a miracle, and he tries everything to explain this miracle scientifically in some way. I find that a little amusing - because the ancient cultures knew exactly what the mystery of life force is: Consciousness.
Self-Confidence
What does self-confidence mean? Self-confidence means trusting myself. Trusting myself means being with myself and lovingly standing up for my own needs. Because when I do that, I can trust myself. Then I have good intentions towards myself. That doesn't mean that I'm allowed to occupy or penetrate the space of others. But it is the task of the others to clearly demarcate their space.
The Colours of the Aura
I described how the aura is built up in my article "Connection of Self and Soul". Today I would like to go into the colors of the aura. As you may know, you can buy an aura photograph at certain esoteric fairs. This art form absolutely has its merits; I just want to note that your aura almost never looks the same.
Connection of Self and Soul
For many years I have meditated on what exactly the "soul", the "self", "spirit" and "mind" are. In my book "Being Human - A Travel Guide" I then, as a result of these inner studies, described the individual parts of the human aura as follows: The core is the physical body, the material anchor for the spirit, so to speak. It can best be compared to the element Earth.
Pearljay
The pearl is a symbol of inner growth. Do you know how it is made? A grain of sand or other foreign body such as a mite or similar finds its way inside a shell. The shell cannot spit out the foreign body, so she encapsulates it in the innermost layer of her mantle, which is made of mother-of-pearl. From this encapsulation, the pearl develops over time.
Handpoke Tattoo Rituals
Handpoked tattoos are the origin of contemporary tattoo culture. Contrary to the modern way of tattooing, a tattoo needle without machine power pierces through the first layer of skin and places the color pigments in the second layer of the skin, the socalled “leather skin”. This procedure varies from the regular tattooing technique as far as its feeling is different and it doesn’t affect the skin as much.
Kintsugi - The Art Of Trauma and Healing
In the following I describe a process that happens to all of us in life anyway; so far rather unconsciously. Since we are becoming more and more aware of our inner processes, we must also deal with them more consciously. That's why I'm taking you on a little trip. I burned a hole in my incense holder and used it as an opportunity to practice a Japanese technique called Kintsugi.
Amethyst
The Amethyst takes its name from the Greek "amethystos" which means "sober" or "not drunk". This naming is most likely due to its ability to keep its wearer cool in stressful situations. The amethyst has proven itself as a test stone; It is advisable to wear an amethyst on your body (in the form of jewelry or as a tumbled stone in your pocket) or to put it on the table in front of you during every kind of test in life.
Meditation Ritual Crown Chakra Activation
Put on relaxing music and, if possible, dress in the colors of the Crown Chakra or Universal Chi, i.e. purple or gold. Put some lavender flowers and cinnamon in the bowl. Mix the two together with your fingers and focus on your intention: to activate your Crown Chakra. You can also ask the lavender blossoms and the cinnamon powder directly, in spoken words, to support you in realizing this intention.
The Web of Wyrd
Back in 2010, I was not doing very well. I had lost my job due to burnout, my doctor wanted me to apply for social care due to my mental insufficiency and I had almost no money because I had already earned very little before. Sad and often alone, I sat at home, diligently wrote applications and studied psychology myself, so as not to get caught in the social welfare system.
Learning to read Life
I have an extremely extensive collection of cards, which would probably make every witch heart beat faster. If you would like to delve deeper into working with cards, I can give you an insight into this world during a Chi Session - from classic tarot to light code tarots and shamanic potency tarots, reading power animal cards, Mayan cards and Runes, everything is there.
Rune Means Whisper
When I was traveling through Ireland in 2011, I received a small polymer clay bead from one of my new acquaintances. It was maybe the size of a penny and had a blue symbol painted on the yellow background. Astonished, I studied this new code, which I hadn't seen before, and then had my friend explain to me that the symbol was a letter from the Celtic Ogham Script.
What it's good for
You don't need a crystal. You don't need an essence. You don't need a coach. It's all inside of you. What you do need to progress is a clear intention, set into focussed action. And that's were the first sentence of this thought excursion gets turned: Often times, I had all these thoughts inside of me, and only when speaking about them to someone, they cleared up.
Love Yourself
"Love yourself", they say. A single sentence that triggers so much in me. "I don't want to be selfish. I don't want to be arrogant. I don't want to put myself above others." - These are all socially shaped concepts with which I do not want to identify. Then a realization: loving myself does not mean putting myself above others. But to finally see myself as an equal. Not only understanding and feeling compassion for everyone else, but also for myself.
Meditation
Meditation does not describe a state of not thinking, but rather the state of having thought through to the end. For a long time I thought I couldn't meditate because my mind wandered to the future, to the past, mostly ignoring the now. Until I realized that I just needed to focus on this mind; namely, any thoughts that I had not finished thinking and any feelings that I had not finished feeling or expressing.
Jedi Mind Tricks
Isn't it interesting that we humans can actually reprogram our conscious and subconscious mind? With every day more I see the neccessity of such a reprogramming - our minds have not been properly upgraded to function well in the modern age. They mostly still operate on software from the stone age and hence need a little reboot to create a smoother experience for the mind, body and soul alltogether.
Ho'oponopono
Forgiveness is not as important to the forgiven as it is important to the forgiver. We have all been hurt, intentionally or unknowingly, by other people. Unfortunately, often precisely from those people who were or are very close to us. However, if we don't heal these wounds, they bleed all over our future.
