Chakras & The Third Key to Ascension

Leslie Temple-Thurston is the author of a book called Keys to Ascension. These next chakra teachings were inspired by her work.

For the next few days, we are going on a different Chakra In-Between journey. Through her own deep chakra work, Ms. Temple-Thurston discovered beliefs to be adopted for the Chakra In-Betweens.

Let me remind you that the most important thing about the chakras is that they are a system. They’re meant to work together as a system.

One of the major areas of differing chakra theories, once we’ve divided and conquered them, so to speak, is what happens between each chakra.

Remember the color list? Here it is again:

Red>RedOrange>Orange>OrangeYellow>Yellow>YellowGreen>Green>GreenTurquoise>Turquoise>TurquoiseIndigo>Indigo>IndigoViolet>Violet>VioletRose>Rose>RoseRed

The keys will be addressed, first, in the order that their author maintains is the easiest to adopt them. Toward the end, I’ll revisit them in the order of the chakra system.

The Third Key is a belief meant to live between the Fourth Green Heart Chakra and the Fifth Turquoise Throat Chakra in GreenTurquoise.

The belief is: Not my will but Thine.

The positive spin on this is: Show me where to serve.

Sure, on the surface life can look like willfulness of all kinds happens all the time, and it’s true, that’s one way to tell the story. The other way is that if there is a seeming willfulness experience, at some level, conscious or unconscious, you participated in it.

How to work with this belief: The Graces inherent in the 4th and Fifth Chakras are Love and Creativity. Bring both to whatever willfulness you experience — yours or that of others, and focus instead on Willing Service.

Change, Belovèd, is the only constant.
