SJ-10 Tianjing - Heavenly Well

This is God's supply house, where we can go to draw from an inexhaustible well; nothing negative ever comes out of it. It is the Earth aspect of the Fire: Fire as love, and the abundance of love, the sense that the world loves me. Being able to draw from Heavenly influence, as we draw from a well what we need to survive, it brings strength, peace, serenity and a stable mind, and helps people reach far down into themselves once they have lost touch with who they are, or with their Heavenly mother or father. It grounds the Fire and leaves a person feeling held and secure, giving security to every Official. Drawing on this well is like bringing food to someone lost in the desert; no one comes to it without receiving what they need. All the Elements arise from and are held within it, and it feeds the Earth that lives inside Fire, with a direct effect on all the other eleven Officials. As the Earth point it reaches far down into the Earth to meet the source of being, and Heaven here is a place anyone can return to when they need it. Bathe here to reconnect with mother and father and with essence.

Offers us a sip from Heaven, letting us dip into our divine core and bathe in the restorative power of celestial love.
