Validating Roles Visually
Nov 6, 2003
SHEPHERD: Eyes can be a helpful if uncertain guide to many Michael teachings traits, especially if coupled with other indicators.
In my experience:
Emotionally centered people have watery eyes.
Priests have intense, fiery eyes.
Warriors have intense, metallic eyes.
Sages have mirthful, expressive eyes.
Artisans have soft, doe-like eyes.
Servers have warm, sincere eyes.
Kings have "pointy" eyes.
Scholars have neutral eyes (that may especially reveal their secondary traits).
Those with a goal of discrimination (a.k.a. rejection) often have somewhat squinty eyes, as if trying to make something out.
A manifested, positive-pole old soul has open, easy-going eyes.
An old, emotionally centered warrior in discrimination has crossed eyes (just kidding). Seriously, her eyes might have several qualities at once.
Sometimes it's hard to figure out just what trait you're picking up in someone's eyes. Is the warmth you see there the emotional center or an indication of a server or priest? It takes practice to discern, and cross-checking with other litmus tests can help. Does he thrive on inspiration? Does he easily cry?
From Messages from Michael:
REMEMBERING THAT THIS IS MOST SUPERFICIAL, AND EASILY COLORED BY OTHER FACTORS, WE WOULD SAY THAT INFANT SOULS MANIFEST FEAR. THIS CAN BE SEEN IN THEIR EYES. THIS FEAR IS OUT OF PROPORTION TO THE SITUATION. THE WHOLE BUSINESS OF LIVING IS FEARFUL TO THEM. BABY SOULS ARE GUILELESS AND THIS SHOWS IN THEIR EYES. YOUNG SOULS ARE IN A STATE OF UNREST. THIS OFTEN SHOWS IN ERRATIC EYE MOVEMENTS, THE INABILITY TO HOLD EYE CONTACT FOR LONG. BUT THEN, THE MATURE SOUL FINDS IT DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN EYE CONTACT BECAUSE OF DISCOMFORT. OLD SOULS HAVE A DIRECT, PENETRATING STARE ABSENT IN EARLIER CYCLES. WISDOM IS REFLECTED THERE.
Note Michael's caveat at the beginning that these concepts are not cut-and-dried, just tendencies. In my observation, people of any soul age who are conscious (present, self-aware, working on themselves) and in their positive poles are comfortable with eye contact and can have great eyes; we're all eternal beings, after all. The more "there" that's there, the more there is in the eyes. Anyone in fear will tend to avert his eyes; being agitated will show up in anyone's eyes darting around.
Athletes tend to have shiny eyes just from being so fit; in their case, the eyes reveal vitality. Sick people have cloudy eyes.
Yep, the eyes are windows of the soul. There are many other clues to one's traits, but eyes are especially revealing.
BODHI: Your take on eyes is interesting. It could be a chapter in your new Michael book:) It rings with some veracity. But how how would you classify the eyes, say, of Asians? Would they also fit your descriptions below? I find that Michael doesn't so much describe the expression or structure of eyes as they do the psychology manifested behind the eyes.
SHEPHERD: I would think that these tendencies would cross ethnic and cultural lines. It might be helpful, though, if one knew enough about the cultural tendencies to take them into account. For example, if a culture is especially emotionally expressive or repressive, that might have a bearing on how much emotion manifests in their eyes when its people are emotionally centered. Maybe, for example, all Italians would tend to look emotionally centered to the untrained eye. Comparing an Italian validated as being intellectually centered with one validated as being emotionally centered might help "calibrate" one's perceptive yardstick. I wouldn't think that the shape of the eyes would matter--this is about what's coming through the form.
LAUREL: Penetrating, bright, X-ray vision quality....Is that sort of what you mean, Shepherd, when you say intense and fiery???
SHEPHERD: Maybe. Inspiration axis roles' eyes are warm, expression axis medium, action axis cool, and assimilation axis neutral or clear. The cardinal roles' eyes are more focused, and ordinal are more diffuse. Even though warriors' eyes are very strong, there's a blunt quality to their look, as opposed to the "pointiness" of kings'.
The two most intense roles and eyes are warrior and priest. Warriors are the most earthy, and priests are the most astral or spiritual: lowest and highest in frequency, two ends of one stick.
This is different from most ordinal (server) to most cardinal (king), which is a different "stick": least to most concentrated energy, in the sense that kings have the most energy "packed" into their soul, so they're highly pressurized. Servers have the least pressurized, compelling feeling about them, making them easy to be around. Kings command just by their presence, and servers comfort. This characterizes all cardinality and ordinality to some extent.
I don't know about the x-ray vision: I suppose any intense gaze could be interpreted that way.
All the best, Shepherd
