The Open Spleen
The Bitch of Irrational Fears
This is the seat of intuition, survival, and well-being. If your Splenic Center is open (uncolored) in your chart.
You are here to experience life without a consistent source of intuition.
Your true gift is a deep wisdom about the nature of health and well-being
But your mind, driven by the not-self, has a different idea. It believes it must constantly hold onto things that aren't good for it.
This conditioning creates a "silent promise" that you are healthy, even when you are not.
The mental chatter of the open Splenic Center is a master of disguise, constantly trying to convince you and others that you are well, even when you are not.
This manifests in a few key archetypes of behavior:
This is the constant need to hold onto things, people, or situations that are no longer healthy or beneficial.
The more this voice clings to the past, the more it is trying to fill a perceived void of security and well-being.
You are not listening to a person with security; you are hearing a conditioned mind trying to prove its health.
When an open Splenic Center encounters a defined Splenic Center, the not-self immediately goes into resistance mode.
It tries to resist change, resist letting go, or resist anything that threatens its sense of security because it feels a deep sense of pressure to maintain its current state.
This is the "parasite" of the not-self mind trying to feed off a consistent source of intuition.
The open Splenic Center is not designed to consistently maintain health, as it lacks a consistent source of intuition.
Yet, the not-self mind, in its desire to be seen as healthy, will make bold claims about its well-being, even when it is not.
This leads to a painful cycle of denial and more unhealthy choices, which ultimately erodes trust and causes significant problems.
This Law Key unlocks the experience of competition and courage.
The not-self mind here is driven by the pressure to be the healthiest, to be the strongest, and to "shock" others with its vitality.
It's the voice that says, "I can do that better than you can," all in a desperate attempt to prove its health and well-being.
This Law Key unlocks the experience of bargains and community. The not-self here feels the pressure to be a part of the tribe and will make promises to the community to feel a sense of belonging.
The not-self mind of this law key is also a master of denial. It will deny its own exhaustion or lack of well-being, making promises it cannot keep, and then deny the consequences.
This is the voice that says, "I'll do it for you," and then later pretends the promise was never made.
This Law Key unlocks the power of the intuition to sell and market.
The not-self here will use exaggerated stories and persuasive language—it will "bullshit you to the ends of the earth" if you let it.
To convince you and itself of its health. It's the voice that sells a fantasy, not because it's malicious, but because it feels a deep pressure to be seen as significant.
This Law Key unlocks the experience of control and material resources.
The not-self here feels the pressure to be in control and to gather resources. It's the voice that says, "I must control this situation," or "I need to collect more resources to feel safe."
This can lead to a controlling nature and an obsession with material possessions, all to prove its health and power.
The journey to de-conditioning from the open Splenic Center is about letting go of the need to prove anything to anyone.
It's about recognizing that your health is not something to be earned—it is an inherent part of your being, and you are already valuable, just as you are.
