How Green is Your Life? 🍀
Dear Creatrix,
This past week, we finished the community chapter in the CREATRIX School (Öffnet in neuem Fenster), and it’s been a very interesting journey for me.
Somehow, to think about how we want to and can contribute to our communities and the world at large requires us to be at our best, more than anything else.
And the better we know ourselves, the more we know what we need and how to take care of our own needs first - the less harm we cause and the easier it becomes for us to interact with others.
Fortunately, we do have wonderful tools to help us, to get to know ourselves better, like the Wheel of Colours (Öffnet in neuem Fenster) - and I’ve been writing and thinking about the qualities of the colour green (Öffnet in neuem Fenster) and what it represents in the Wheel of Colours (Öffnet in neuem Fenster) this week - which seemed to go very well with the world around me turning green as well.
What I love so much about the Wheel of Colours (Öffnet in neuem Fenster) is how it shows us in quite simple terms what we all need in life, in general: love, trust, confidence, intuition, commitment and so on - and then shows us where each of us needs any of these qualities the most - because we are all unique and don’t all need the same things at the same time.
It also shows us how that may play out in our lives and what that may mean for us - and, my personal addition to this, with these articles and also in the description I write for people’s wheels - what we can do now, no matter what was in our past, to get our needs met and through that become able to live our lives to the fullest.
Traditionally, the first colour (Öffnet in neuem Fenster) on the Wheel is red (Öffnet in neuem Fenster), which stands for trust, passion and confidence, as everything in our life starts best when we enter into it with that.
The second colour (Öffnet in neuem Fenster) is yellow (Öffnet in neuem Fenster), which stands for love and support, again the best addition to the first colour to support us on our way.
Then, as the third colour (Öffnet in neuem Fenster), we bring in intuition (Öffnet in neuem Fenster), blue (Öffnet in neuem Fenster), to make sure we are also on our specific way, and make the best choices for our unique journey through life.
Then we bring in the real power, green (Öffnet in neuem Fenster), intention, inspiration and commitment (Öffnet in neuem Fenster) and begin to think about what we want to grow and create in life.
The sixth colour, pink, shows us how we create in the most unique and creative and new ways, and then we come to the sixth colour, white, which shows us how we build strong relationships, in the sixth field, which is also the field of our unique gift - because that is what we bring into our communities (Öffnet in neuem Fenster) to create strong relationships and so on.
This way, the Wheel of Colours (Öffnet in neuem Fenster) guides us through everything we may need and experience in life and helps us to see our unique abilities clearly and thus allows us to use them in the best possible way.
With the descriptions of the colours, you can now also learn a bit more about how to grow and cultivate these qualities, either by integrating the colours into your life visually, or by strengthening them through mental or practical exercises.
You can find an overview of all colour articleson my website (Öffnet in neuem Fenster).
(Öffnet in neuem Fenster)Here’s what we did in the CREATRIX School (Öffnet in neuem Fenster) last week:
(Öffnet in neuem Fenster)Let Your Heart be Your Guide
We end this chapter by thinking about forming temporary alliances, to help us come together for causes that affect us all – and how we can do that while also disagreeing on other things.

(Öffnet in neuem Fenster)What would your Qu_ing-Self do?
In our final lesson, we celebrate all we’ve learned in this chapter and see how we can take it even one step further by asking ourselves what our highest self, our qu_ing -self, would do.
