Notes
Steering emotions can be positive or negative. Positive steering emotions are emotions like satisfaction, happiness, joy, rapture, and bliss. Negative steering emotions are emotions like guilt, shame, and regret.[3] Negative steering emotions help identify problem spots and can also help guide the individual towards Alignment, health, and stronger Connection.
Positive steering emotions help identify areas of strengths, things that you should be doing and that represent authentic moves towards Alignment and Connection
Steering emotions are primarily useful while the individual remains disconnected from Consciousness. When an individual is fully (or even partially connected), alignment is determined noetically, i.e. by a strong internal knowing.
Steering emotions work by encouraging and/or discouraging a physical unit from certain actions and behaviors. An individual who feels happiness when working a specific job, engaging a specific task, or existing in a certain way can feel confident their actions are aligned. An individual feeling guilt and shame may feel confident that they are doing or thinking something that is out of alignment with higher Monadic Consciousness.
Steering emotions only work if an individual physical unit is "listening" to their body's emotions. If an individual has been trained not to listen (for example by a toxic gender socialization process that discourages boys from having authentic emotions), or if they have been trained to misinterpret said emotions (perhaps because of Hollywood style manipulation and redefinition of emotions), steering does not work.
An 18th-century Christian mystic and scientist by the name of Emanuel Swedenborg noted the reality and significance of these “emotive communications.” He called them “signs” and said that he felt “assured his thoughts were on the right track when he experienced what he called “a sign’:’…a certain cheering light and joyful flash…that darts through some sacred temple of the brain” George F. Dole and Robert H. Kirven, A Scientist Explores Spirit: A Biography of Emanuel Swedenborg (Pennsylvania: Chrysalis books, 1997) p. 34.
Einstein has a dim awareness of steering emotions when he says "One never goes wrong following his feelings. I don't mean emotions, I mean feeling, for feeling and intuition are one." (Hermanns, 1983: np)
"You can understand steering emotions if you think about a typical paved road upon which you would drive a car. A paved road has smooth lanes where the car drives, and rough shoulders and centre line. When the car is lined up (aligned) and moving forward on the road, the drive is smooth and comfortable. However, if the car begins to drift off course, a rumble strip or a rough shoulder shakes the car and alerts the driver to pay more attention. Guilt and shame, like the rumbling of the road, alert you that you are steering off course. Guilt and shame is a message from your Spiritual Ego telling you to smarten up and act in a more aligned fashion. If you feel guilt, shame, or regret, that is a message to examine your behaviour and your life’s purpose. "
