Here’s an unfiltered peek into what’s happening Behind Closed Auras. ColLaboratory’s four manifestors lovingly and unapologetically invite you into this conversation about the felt mechanics, psychological burden, peace, and rage they experience moving through the world with their weird auras and initiatory capacities.

Eréndira, Kelsey, Steph, and Quinn discuss:

• The tension between not wanting to pressure others, resistance to impact, and the burden of managing others’ responses to our initiations
• Energetic hygiene and the slippery slope from initiation to response
• The cancerous nature of obligation based communications and manifestor “ghosting” as a stop to it’s growth
• The mechanics of non-sacral bodies & sacral amplification: how manifestors can take in too much sacral energy and burn out, but also how this over-capacity is part of the initiatory mechanic itself.
• Closed-aura protection + psychological conditioning: The paradox of being energetically protected yet psychologically over-conditioned; the “slow-drip barrage” of response demands on a closed aura.
• Manifestation as initiation; the body leading, not the mind; being “at the mercy” of timing and urges.
• The importance of not taking our cyclical absence as manifestors personally
• Differentiated “urges” - how the process of feeling and acting on urge/initiation differs in every single individual manifestor
• Surrender to form & cosmic timing: Trusting the body’s timing, surrendering the mind’s expectations, and the spiritual dimension of manifestor initiation.
