OLIVE GREEN

KEY INSIGHTS
OLIVE GREEN speaks space and wisdom, feminine leadership qualities, and peace through compassion for humanity. OLIVE GREEN asks the questions: "Can I surrender to the new way of power and leadership? Can I embrace the ancient ways of honoring each individual for who they are? Can I radiate my feminine power so that others may learn?" Men may fear this new energy and its direction of feminine power.

OLIVE GREEN is the first possibility of new hope in the development of humankind. It is being the feminine archetype of compassion, wisdom, acceptance and understanding and modeling it to others. It is not power over others, but celebrating each individual for who they are and therefore empowering them. It is standing in someone's shoes so that you may understand more of the human journey toward peace and love. This can only happen when you merge with the heart of another.

METAPHORIC VIEW
The beginning ray of surrender. The yellow portion is the energy of individual mind and will merging with the heart and space of green. OLIVE GREEN forms the bridge between the will and the heart, which lends clarity. OLIVE GREEN can either bring out or repress the human spirit. If not addressed our little will becomes the authority. The clarity of yellow enables one to see the direction of the of the heart (green), and enables one to stand in their own power, yet allow others their space. When imbalanced: Transmutation of fear (yellow) and bitterness (green) is necessary to shift to the new energy of empowerment.

POSSIBLE OLIVE GREEN ISSUES
Inability to balance the female/male energy or yin and yang and therefore being unable to access the wisdom of OLIVE GREEN.
