← CHAPTER OVERVIEW
What the Wheel of Colours can tell you about your needs when it comes to friendships
Dear Creatrix,
Which strategies have you used in the past to make new friends, and how can you use those now? And who would you like to be friends with and what would you like to do together?
Those are some of the questions we addressed in this chapter so far.
In the last lesson, we also looked at the friendship archetypes, the companion, competitor, mentor and mentee, to see how we wish to balance giving and receiving from now on.
And today we will take one last step to see what we, as the unique beings we are, need, to connect to people in the way that helps us to fully develop all that we are and to find soul-alignment.
For this, we will be looking at our Wheel of Colours.
In the Purpose // Believe! chapter, of the CREATRIX School, we looked at what Astrology, Numerology and the Wheel of Colours can tell us about ourselves and our unique gifts and abilities.
Today, we will only look at the Wheel of Colours and what it has to say about our relationship styles, but if you’d like to, you you are very much encouraged to look at your astrology chart as well, or your human design chart, or your numerology, as all of these modalities can help us to understand ourselves better and they can show us different aspects of what we need in terms of friendships as well.
For me, both, my birth chart and my Wheel of Colours say almost exactly the same, in one particular area, which is that I find myself and my inner voice through my relationships with other people. And I can see how true that is for me.
And while we will be looking at a few different aspects of the Wheel of Colour today, we will start by looking at the colour white. Because white is the colour in the Wheel of Colours for all kinds of relationships in our lives: with partners, friends, family or work colleagues.
It shows us how we interact with others and helps us to balance our needs for community, while also remaining true to ourselves. Depending on where we have the colour white in our wheel, we have different approaches to our friendships.
If the colour white is more at the beginning of your wheel, you might attract people easily, but you might also tend to stay on the surface with people and value more connections over deeper ones as your default setting, once you become aware of this, you can change it.
If white is more towards the end of the wheel, you might be more shy and conscious about your friendships, and you might withdraw rather than going out to be with people too much, but like to have a handful of very strong relations that you trust deeply and can rely on at all times, or have a preference for that. And again, once you become aware of your patterns, you can change them
What we all have in common, however, is that we need to find a balance between time alone and time in company, between getting on with all people in a more superficial way and creating close friendships.
Learning how you naturally connect to people through your Wheel of Colours will help you to understand yourself and your relationships and friendships better, and it may help you to grow in ways you haven’t considered yet, because they don’t come to you naturally yet, but are still there for you to explore.
And it might direct you to see your friendship patterns differently, simply because you haven’t been aware of them yet, fully.
My colour white is in field number 10, the field for recognizing my inner truth, and this is what I mentioned above, I learn about my inner truth through the interactions with others. For me, that looks like meeting someone and seeing how they interact with the world to then awaken new aspects within me so I can embrace them.
I feel that this is the reason why I’ve been so restless in a way, always wanting to go to different places and excited to meet new people. Because each interaction helps me to discover new aspects of myself. I can also see that from dating different people, which is an even more intimate way of connecting, I’ve learned a lot more about who I am.
This means, for me to keep growing and discovering new aspects of myself, I will also have to keep meeting different people and be in contact with different people, to be fully happy and aligned and to keep growing and expanding and understanding my inner truth.
How about you? Where’s your white, and what does it tell you?
I have a family member and also a friend who both have the colour white in the first field of their wheel, which means they need to feel supported by the people around them in a new situation, and it’s been really interesting to see them thrive in the company of others. The other people don’t even have to do anything special, they just have to show their presence.
And just a few weeks ago, I made a wheel for another person who has a white centre. He, like me, used to organize events in Berlin, and really loves to be around people. He really shines in the company of others, and yet also maybe struggles with deeper relationships at times, because the colour of our centre shows us the main question we chose to explore in this lifetime. So, he really seems to be exploring relationships in all their forms in profound ways in this lifetime.
And as always, there is no right or wrong way. We are all here to explore in our own ways, yet once we know this, once we become consciously aware of what we need when connecting with other people, we can make sure that we have that, so we can really thrive and have the experiences we choose to have.
So just check for yourself, what does the colour white tell you about your relationships and friendships? In which area of your life do you need friends and other people the most?
Because, now it’s time to get out your Wheel of Colours, and see where you have the colour white, and after that we will look at what else we can learn from the Wheel of Colours when it comes to friendships.
