Just stay sitting for a while while I show you two pictures when we go on now. And that's what we want to work with with part three now. And part three, we were working with Venus and the colors. And the connection is that the Venus qualities somehow stream to our nervous system, lower bodies in a way that they bring a light which creates harmony, which creates an interplay which makes things possible. It does not just support power but it's a sort of creativity out of interest. And this light, yeah, when it flows through the body it becomes color.

And creativity needs all shades of colors with being able to create the pictures the organs need to become productive. And in the beginning we were working forms which have to do with this and afterwards we did also gestures. And when you just recollect the gestures, then in the beginning we did it with heavy arms And then expressing this violet, deep, deep quality. And then we had this blue quality encompassing us. And then the green, this, yeah, just being interested on surfaces, on the surface up out there there's light but inside there's darkness and the green is where this meets and the yellow which is just streaming out this way and that way, the orange which wants to touch things to come in contact and the red which really out of going through something develops force.

And when we were walking these qualities, as forms which we moved in space, then in a way it was the steps of the fire led which made us walk a little bit forward and backwards, brought forward by this feeling of being so deep. Then combined with this feeling embraced, we were walking a spiral or a circle. And then this surfaceness, it was just walking left and right.

Yellow was just moving through space and I did not, you can see it here. And paint the next line from the point of that the other one has finished. But yellow becomes already interested in the new thing before it has reached its goal. It's just being attracted by something, yeah. What's important for yellow, not to arrive. And the orange really wants to arrive but still feels bound by these little knots. And the S is really working hard to get somewhere but then it really is not shy and really encounters also meeting contact with all consequences.

And these two things I would like to combine with the Venus gesture in a way which I want to show you now. Because colors can mean a lot and we want to bring it down to our nervous system. Okay, then let's start. May I invite you for part two? And breathe and arrive.

Maybe one foot is in front, the other one behind and create these little fists in a way as if they would carry something which is heavy, a bin with water in it, which is slowly moving forward and backwards. And you really use this imagination to feel into your own depth. When it's so deep, it can't move quickly.

Wait. Then allow yourself to let this go and to really feel this protection of the atmosphere surrounding you. Just not moving quickly but it's there and you use your arms to perceive there are spheres of protection around me. Down there maybe it's a darker blue. Up there it's a lighter blue.

And then just spread your hands out like on a plane and then move them. Just have interest in what's under your palms but also sense that on the outside of your hand, in the back, things are raining through and they want to go into the far distance. But what's under the palms of the hand, let's say no, let's stay inside, the roundish things are much more nice. And then follow again, let your hands, follow this raying out quality and ray a little bit that way and the hands ray that way. And you see my feet already followed but it's mainly through the arms. Come back to your heart and from out your heart really mean I want to touch you.

And it's so honest, I really reach you and I want to talk to you, it's so nice to meet and come back to yourself. But you know, you can't live from one meeting, you need many. So you have this many interests but your interest is honestly, oh and serious, the interest in making contact. And then come back to your center, push what's not meant to be yours a little bit away, keep it away and out of this gain strength. That this red color here supports in a way that you feel so much strength that you can open up without being in danger. Breathe and let go.

And it's all about can I sense my body in a way and the gesture that it makes sense to attribute it to a color quality? Pick out through it one more time. Lilac, violet, blue, green, yellow, orange, red, And just open up a little bit, spread your finger and have the feeling of just white, all colors are possible. But not so engaged.

And let go. Then you do the red, maybe one tip, you don't have to work to become red, but if you just have this gesture of the hand in orange, which you just move slightly forward with this interest, yeah. And then you increase the expression to red that you go out, but then you really make stop like this. And just try to make the stop gesture here in a way that you put pretty much effort into your hand to make it more or less vertical and strong, that by itself the strength starts to happen in your spine.

And then allow your body to really enter into this strength and return to yourself, that you do not have to be, I have to be wet, because then you always need a lot of energy to keep it alive, but you only do it here, you are here and you just put a little bit of effort into this, the speech, the expression of the hand and then you allow your body to pick it up. And only when you have this, you keep it alive and you allow your arms to enter what's already there by itself. So do not push your hands upwards to arrive in red, but just this little beginning creates everything. It's there. And then it's only to allow myself to feel it better and to enjoy it more, my reddish quality which everybody will respect because it's so natural. Okay, that's the scheme of colors. You can differentiate more if you want, but you don't have to.

And this we want to combine with the Venus quality because that's the quality which is weaving through our body. This being so deep connected with the life on earth and the receptiveness and openness for everything which wants to arrive, which wants to be given, which wants to be received. And now we try to do the Venus gesture in a way that we recollect the quality of the color as if we would stand or live in the color with the Venus quality. So just stand the way you like to do the violet gesture. Just go down, feel the weight and back.

Forward and back. And keep this sensation alive when you now do the Venus gesture, sensing towards the depth, returning from the depth, listening to what's behind you, having this giving and receiving gesture and all around of it, it's deep violet. Return to yourself, create the blue encompassing quality. It's different to how it was before. The lilac is still there but we let it go away and wake up for the blue.

We keep this alive and we try to sense into this blue. Can I sense the blue through my gesture? Can I keep it alive?

We turn to ourselves and we do the green opening up, returning to ourselves, sending the below and above, And then opening again, sending the green. We transform it into the Venus gesture without losing what if just tried to experience? How do I move now? And from here just start the stretching quality of the yellow in this direction. So light here and there and there. And I transform it into the Venus gesture again. And now, is it still green or can I now have this light yellow alive?

And how does this feel in my body? And from here I go back to myself and create this orange which wants to go there and there and discuss with this person and bake a cake with that person and washing a car, best friend. And all these nice encounters, can I keep them alive in my orange, and how do my muscles feel now?

And I return to myself, and I build from out my heart this stop gesture, creating this inward energy in my spine and then just sensing this power in myself. Self perception, my strength. How can I transform this or keep it alive in the Venus gesture? Then I let go, just by sensing into the surrounding, rich, less engaged but full of potential. Just let go. Arrive at yourself. Breathe and sit down.

What's the first perception coming to your inner awareness? Which parts of your body speak first? Are there also parts which speak but very silently? Where are they?

How do they enter your perception and what do they say? Just have a loving correspondence, also with your more silent voices. You don't have to understand what they say, you just have interest in what they bring. How colorful or not how colorful but what, what quality related to colors do you detect? What, how would you describe your inner richness now? Is it more static, painting or architecture or is it fluid, is it changing shape?

How to experience your inner uprightness? And is there still joy to again stand up and do something? Is there still a little bit of hunger in the cells of your body? What do they say?
