Understanding the Rays of Creation: Part 1

What if you could change your past?

Unraveling your past is not complicated, but it does require attention to the process. When you feel trapped by emotions such as shame, regret, or guilt from past situations, the Rays of Creation can help release the charged emotions tied to those events—literally changing your experience of them.

The Rays are applications used in the creation process. They serve as the building blocks of existence, shaping the world around us. They are actively engaged in everything we do. We use them every moment of the day, whether we consciously know it or not.  They’re how we create.  Every breath, thought, and action is intertwined with these Rays, even if we are unaware of their influence.

One of the challenges we face in life is our clumsiness in creation. In the busy motion, distractions and reactionary tendencies, we miss a lot of important details.  It’s like half-baking a cake or forgetting the baking powder.  We also make a lot of assumptions based on what someone said on how we ‘should’ bake the cake.

The first Ray of Creation

The energy of the first Ray is known as the “Will of the Creator.” It acts as an alignment, or a connection to merge the energy with the Creator’s Light.

How to call upon the first Ray of Creation

1. Take a moment to settle into your grounded, quiet space.
2. Enter your sacred heart space, also known as the Sanctuary of the Pink Diamond.
3. Intend to connect with Source, the Creator of all that is.
4. Imagine, feel or visualize any way you like of what it is you want, connecting in with Creator.
5. Allow the energy to adjust and align as you observe how this Ray influences, changes and fulfills your creation.  Maybe a new thought or idea will occur to you.
6. When you feel complete, that’s it!  You get to allow it to unfold.

TIP: It’s enjoyable to do without a project too, to just feel and be one with Creator.  This is a great one to rinse and repeat as often as you like.

The second Ray of Creation

This Ray assists us in stepping energy up or down. For example, do you have a lot to say but only have a few words to say it in? This is the Ray that would assist in taking a big or full message that would help condense it down into a smaller phrase that might be easier for someone to understand and still points to the bigger picture.

It similarly functions like a volume setting. This Ray can be used to calm uncomfortable situations or to generate more excitement for success.

Because of its function to step energy up and down, it is the origin of all colors, serving as a tool that offers expansive opportunities within the creative process.

TIP: You can try playing with this Ray and ask it to adjust the dial to what you need it set for your creation or intention to be successful.

The third Ray of Creation

The third Ray is the dynamic engine of creation. It brings together the building blocks of energy, electricity, magnetism, electromagnetism. It provides the adhesion that binds creations together.

There is much more to explore regarding the mechanics of this Ray, which you’ll find in the Core – Level 2, Alchemy Pathway courses. It’s way too much to fit here!

The fourth, fifth, and sixth Rays of Creation

Familiarizing yourself with these three Rays will help you recognize their unconscious influence in daily life, whether you’re planning a dinner party, making a purchase, or navigating relationships and achieving goals.

By consciously engaging with the fourth, fifth, and sixth Rays, you can loosen and dismantle challenging emotions, thoughts, and beliefs. These Rays work together to help you release limitations and create what it is you want.

give it a try

How to use the fourth, fifth, and sixth Rays to dismantle a personal limitation.

1. Think of an experience, pattern or limiting belief, identify a word or concept representing how you feel about it. For example, let’s use the word “Isolation.”
2. Visualize three tables; the fourth Ray is the lowest table, the fifth Ray is the middle table, and the sixth Ray is the tallest table. 
3. Place your experience or word on the lowest table (the fourth Ray) and allow it to loosen up energetically. This Ray binds things together or takes them apart.
4. With it ‘unlocked’, move it to the middle table (the fifth Ray), where you can remove or add what you do want.  Here, ask yourself, “Are there other words or aspects in this?” Associated terms such as “alone,” “lonely,” “silence,” “jealousy,” and “withdrawal” might arise. 
5. Determine which of these words or aspects do or don’t benefit you. There may be several or just one.
6. Move the aspects you wish to let go of to the tallest table (the sixth Ray) to dissipate and disappear.
7. Bring any new words you want down onto the middle table (the fifth Ray) to add into your creation.  Determine if the new combination of energies works for you.  If not, no problem—this is your workbench. Adjust it until you like the result.
8. Finally, bring it down onto the lowest table (the fourth Ray) to glue the energy all together, and you’re finished.

You can also use the same process to create. Start on the fifth Ray table to analyze and refine it, approaching it playfully and neutrally pulling down what you would like from the sixth Ray. Once ready, set it in the fourth Ray.

After some time, revisit your project to refine it based on new insights or changes in your life.

The Teachers of Light were very clear that using these Rays while maintaining a curious and playful mindset can significantly enhance your approach to dismantling and creating your experiences.

TIP: Start small to see and learn how it works, such as selecting a new restaurant or cleaning out a lower mood from your day.

TIP: Focus on feelings rather than thoughts.

TIP: Be as neutral as you can – adding in energy to prevent or ‘keep out’ others has a wobble of fear.
