Poem recited live at White Dragon Fall Equinox Ceremony, Sept. 21, 2021:
The Beauty of Yin & Yang
by Emerald Winn, age 7
Day and night,
Black and white,
Yin and Yang are not a fright.
Under water, in the air,
Yin and Yang are every where.
Looking for Tao,
Deep below and high above,
My pink dragon heart shines its love.

Emerald is working on a new poem about Love Dragons for Winter Solstice. Readers have suggested he write a children’s book. He’s thinking about it. Right now, he’s very busy running “super missions to block evil hackers from controlling Earth”.
Fish circling is symbol of yin-yang spinning of Tao micro-cosmic orbit.
In the Orbit, Fire Qi (spine) and water Qi (chest) encircle neutral space of Yuan Qi (Original Breath) in our central channel. There are dozens of orbit methods; most ignore the third force in the center. On the sacred Taoist Mt. Wudang, a superior spiritual technology evolved: the Red Dragon Spinning Pearl Orbit.
As we age, water Qi sinks, fire Qi rises. This separation of Yin-Yang dissipates our Life Force, causing organ exhaustion and disease, leading to premature death.
The Red Dragon Orbit is super effective in capturing “long life Qi” – a harmonious mix of Yin-Yang-Yuan Qi – within a spinning pearl. The Pearl is purely energetic, but functions like a master cell in our body.
It orchestrates vibrant good health in our body by communicating to the nucleus of each of our 80 trillion human cells and to all our stem cells. It’s also the foundation of a spiritual vessel that survives our physical death.
The Taoist tradition of Gold Elixir or Pearl (jindan) is discussed extensively in the inner alchemy (neidan, “inner elixir”) text Triplex Unity (2nd cen. CE). Modern teachers of neigong (quiet meditation, “inner skill”) will not know these methods, which go much deeper into the creative essence of wuji (Supreme Mystery) than emptiness-only teachings (similar to Chan Buddhism).
The leading scholar of this text, Fabrizio Pregadio, has an excellent translation (see GoldenElixir.com).
Below: SIX QUESTIONS about the Orbit are answered, and SEVEN TOP BENEFITS of the Red Dragon Spinning Pearl Orbit – why it is more effective than other methods. It may be time to upgrade or refresh your Orbit practice!

Dear Lovers of Natural Dragon Qi Orbiting Our Energy Body,
The Micro-cosmic Orbit is the most famous Taoist method of Inner Alchemy meditation. It is foundational, the first of Taoist Hermit One Cloud’s Nine Alchemy Formulas. The Chinese call it “the Small Heavenly Round” (xiao hou tian). It has other names, like Embryonic Breathing, and Warm Current.
The orbit was first written about over 2000 years ago to describe a way of bringing sexual essence up the spine to recharge the brain. My speculation is that method spontaneously evolved to recharging the whole body.
I have been testing various versions of the Orbit since 1980. You don’t need to spend 40 years replicating my research. I found one method to be 100x superior to all other methods. It’s a formerly secret (oral transmission only) method, called the Red Dragon Spinning Pearl Orbit.
SIX ORBIT QUESTIONS
Question #1:
Why do we need a “new model” Micro-cosmic Orbit ?
Answer #1:
I wrote the first book in the West on the Orbit for Mantak Chia in 1983. His written English is poor; so he depends on others to write his books. He’s actually what they call a “book packager”. I used his oral methods and wrote the entire book, based on my own practice.
This 1983 book Awaken Healing Energy Through the Tao started the revolution of Taoist inner alchemy unfolding in the West. It’s Orbit method became the standard orbit taught in the West. It took me a decade of teaching to realize its defect. It was like Henry Ford’s Model T buggy. It got you there much faster than walking or on a horse. But compared to modern day cars, the Model T is clunky, slow, and gets poor mileage.
The main problem with this “standard model Orbit” is that it uses breath, touch, and visualization to move our already-manifested energy, called Post-natal Qi. We use this same Qi to fuel our personality, which is run by our 12 meridians and organ spirits. Once our collective “driver” (called ego by Freud) shifts its attention away from the Orbit meditation to some other worldly activity, the Orbit suddenly “runs out of gas”.
The Orbit flow dissipates, because the Post-natal Qi of our personality requires constant “re-fueling”. So adepts are constantly having to “re-start” their Model T Orbit buggy to keep it flowing. I saw this in my own practice, and in my students. Everyone got benefits from it, sometimes very dramatic at first. But over time the effects diminished and the practice dried up.
1983 First Book on Orbit in English
Mantak begged me for years to write an “upgrade” to the 1983 orbit book, but I didn’t feel it was necessary. His motive was commercial – to gain control over the rights. I was concerned that he would make the orbit too complicated. He’s born in the Year of the Monkey, so risks being too clever for his own good. I have the same problem – double Monkey influencing my artistic Year of the Rabbit.
Mantak agreed to give me total editorial control, so I edited a 1993 Awaken Healing Light of the Tao. I kept the Orbit method very simple in my final draft. But Mantak broke his promise and turned my simple 3-step instructions into 15-step procedures. He did hte same with Fusion of Five elements book. That’s why I stopped writing books for him.
Tao is about simplicity. I don’t recommend the “how-to” portions of this 1993 book. But the background information and illustrations are very good reference material. Just ignore the complicated instructions. In 1995 I decided I had to move beyond and explore the higher alchemy formulas, which Mantak, a teenager in high school at the time, did not learn from One Cloud. I dropped him as my spiritual teacher, but stayed friends. I raised the money for the first condo built at Tao Garden in Thailand.
1993 Orbit book
Reading the two “standard model” orbit books I wrote for Mantak in 1983 and 1993 is useful as background information, but not ri4 the best method of practice.
I learned the Spinning Pearl Orbit in 1998 by private transmission. That person does not teach it publicly. The Mt. Wudang tradition prohibits the Red Dragon Orbit being written. That’s why I only make it available as audio in my Qigong Fundamentals #2 home study course. This orbit revolutionized and super-charged my process of hacking into One Cloud’s higher inner alchemy formulas.
I reluctantly taught the Wudang Orbit to Mantak in 2011. His Monkey promptly made it more complicated – spinning pearls in multiple directions from all three dantians, like a circus juggler.
The issue of simplicity is why I separated my teachings of One Cloud’s inner alchemy formulas from Mantak since 1995. It was a normal evolution that happens in many traditions. Kids grow up and find ways to improve on the life of their parents.
I am deeply grateful for Mantak’s tireless efforts to promote Taoist alchemy in the West. His greatest contribution was to spread One Cloud’s Inner Smile method. He deserves pioneer status. I support his overall mission, even though I see few of his students advancing past the Post-natal Qi stage of self-cultivation.
Harmonizing POST-natal Yin-Yang Qi is an important and foundational step. Then one has to couple PRE-natal Yin-Yang Qi forces to begin crystallizing a pearl with a higher percentage of Yuan Qi. That is Lao Tzu’s path of “Return to Origin”. Origin (or “Source”) is not above your head in the sky. You gradually track Original Breath deep within the core of your body. Every being is a portal to the heart of the Cosmos.
Question #2:
Are there other Orbit methods besides the “standard model Orbit” in the 1983 and 1993 books you wrote for Mantak Chia?
Answer #2:
There are many orbit methods. Some Taoists “sing” the orbit around the body. You can use qigong movement – I created a special form just to do this, and it is extremely effective in kick-starting the internal flow of Qi. Do the movements, then sit down and meditate immediately. Some martial artists claim standing for hours on end will activate the flow of Pre-natal Qi in the Orbit, but I have seen little evidence of this. For Westerners, the Qi that arises from standing does come from the earth (i..e. below your feet, beyond your personal body-mind).
But it mostly just goes up to the head, and does NOT descend downward to complete the orbit unless guided to do so. I’ve had a number of clients whose standing practice led to Qi getting stuck in their head, with insomnia resulting. It’s because the head is mostly where Westerners tend to live in this Information Age.
I’m certain it was different for Chinese farmers, who comprised the bulk of most traditional Taoists. They were not stuck in their head, they had a lifeii-long, natural deep connection to the earth. That is precisely why they developed so many body-centered practices.
For my Western students, the Model T Orbit helped them, just as it helped heal many clients with “kundalini syndrome” of too much Qi in their head. So the Post-natal Qi flowing in the orbit is useful. But the Taoist ideal model of super-efficiency is to imitate Nature. That’s because Nature’s Qi flow never gets tired, stays in Yin-Yang harmony with itself, and never runs out of fuel. Over the eons, over many geologic ages, the seasons just keep on rolling by in eternal cycles with overall undisturbed equilibrium. Nature’s flow of Qi does not need Humans to “push the river” to keep the seasonal Qi flowing. The Orbit should imitate this effortlessness.
Question #3:
What fuels Nature, and its effortless flow of POST-natal Qi into physical forms?
Answer #3:
PRE-natal Qi is the driver of POST-natal Qi. It’s also known as the subtle breath of Early Heaven. Everything we know as tangible Nature is birthed from it, and at death dissolves back into it. But it is not the ultimate destination (Origin). It is more like a formless mirror to Nature’s forms. All the patterns of Nature – Yin-Yang, Five Phases, 8 Cosmic Winds (trigrams) also exist in PRE-natal or Early Heaven.
Question #4:
What is PRE-natal Qi, and where does it come from?
Answer #4:
It is patterns of living energy, called “formless or subtle forms” stored in a vast dark ocean. The dimension holding this dark ocean is a “halfway heaven”, called Early Heaven. It mediates between Origin (Primordial Heaven) and physical plane (Later Heaven). These subtle forms of “dark light” flow into visible light shapes and colors which define the birth of all Post-natal forms we call Nature.
This ocean of Pre-natal Qi originates in an invisible, completely formless Primordial Heaven described by Lao Tzu as “The Mother of All Things”. Later it was called taiyi, lit. “Great Oneness”. Beyond (or within) taiyi is wuji, the Supreme Unknowable.
Chinese Buddhist-influenced academics often (wrongly, in my opinion) translate wuji as “emptiness”. If it is unknowable, we cannot know it is empty. A better Taoist translation would be “pure openness”. It is the cosmic womb (in religious terms, Goddess-head) that births the One ,which births the Many.
Question #5:
Will the Orbit hook me up to the cosmic fuel pump that delivers Pre-Natal Qi?
Answer #5:
No. The Orbit is only in-directly linked to Primordial or Source Yuan Qi. A spiritual technology upgrade is needed. You need the Red Dragon Spinning Pearl Orbit to first invoke the spinning force of Nature, seen dramatically in tornadoes and hurricanes. This natural spin was known to ancient Taoists as Dragon Qi.
There are dozens of different methods to move Qi in the Orbit that have been developed in the last 2000 years in China. I’ve tested many of them over the last 40 years, on myself and on my students.
The Spinning Pearl Orbit is the best foundation for those who deire to Return to Origin. It moves a deeper frequency of Qi + Jing (subtle breath + blood/sexual essence), and doesn’t dissipate like the widely taught POST-natal Qi models of the Orbit. The “spin” eventually concentrates Post-natal Qi until it is condensed, like a collapsing neutron star, into a tiny pearl.
This pearl, aka. the Elixir, has a higher vibration and can easily flow into higher dimensions. When you do this method for a long time within your own body, it causes your entire personal Energy Body to gain fluidity and the ability to shift into the Pre-natal dimension or Early Heaven.
The Pearl is “sparked” or “combusted” in higher alchemy formulas to birth your Inner Sage. Thus the pearl ultimately becomes your higher body. Higher neidan training is needed to navigate higher realms. The goal is learn how to harness higher levels of causality. It’s a natural process of “spiritual growing up”, just as physical children gradually grow up.
Question #6:
What exactly is Dragon Qi? Are there real dragons?
Answer #6:
Ignore Hollywood’s popularized dragons. These are the mythical archetype of Western dragons. These dragons have wings and swoop down from the sky, often representing dark forces. It’s part of the Western patriarchal “sky gods rule the earth” model, but with dark dragons hoarding gold under mountains. These are like Reptilian aliens seeking to control earth.
Chinese dragons occupy a different mythic space within the greater planetary psyche. They serve a nearly opposite cultural function. The Chinese dragon archetype, like Taoism, is matriarchal in origin and earth centered. Chinese dragons don’t have wings. They emerge twisting and spinning from the ocean at the spring equinox portal, circulate above for six months and then descend underground or undersea at Fall. Equinox.
When the spinning Dragon Qi is internalized through spiritual practice, it is a sign of Self-rulership over the external forces of Nature that shape human destiny and our personal body. Traditionally, there are five dragons, each a different color and arising in a different direction and season, representing control over the five elements or phases of Nature’s seasonal Qi flow.
While dragons abound in Chinese arts and literature, there are very few methods I’ve found for bridging the gap between one’s personal reality and the mythic or astral reality of dragons. I never really believed in dragons until I had the spontaneous experience of BECOMING a fire-breathing dragon.
By this I mean that my personal Energy Body (functional layers of the “soul”) morphed, in broad day light, into a dragon. I had just finished a round of spinning movements of Taoist Bagua Zhang, a circle-walking form that invokes the Eight Pre-Natal Trigram arrangement of the I Ching (Book of Changes).
It was a shock, in a full waking state with eyes open, to see flames and steam billowing from my mouth. I wasn’t sure how to get back into my human form, but eventually I did. After that, I never doubted the reality of Chinese dragons. But it’s taken me a while to evolve a reliable practice where I can invoke Dragon Qi. The Wudang Red Dragon Orbit I’ve evolved (over decades of practice) so that Dragons instantly arrive to work with me energetically to accomplish some spiritual task.
SEVEN TOP BENEFITS OF SPINNING PEARL ORBIT
OVER VIEW:
I have incorporated the Wudang Red DRagon Orbit into the Inner Alchemy Formulas of Wandering Taoist One Cloud. Over the past 40+ years I’ve evolved the formulas far beyond the seminal but limited transmission I received from Mantak Chia in the early 1980’s. This was a gradual process of expanding my personal Energy Body to embrace and merge, step by step, with the Cosmic Energy Body.
The Red Dragon Spinning Pearl Orbit, and a variation I created, called the Pre-natal Torus Orbit, have made it much easier to manage Dragon Qi. as a natural part of connecting more deeply to Nature, starting with the Energy Body of Planet Earth.
I spent decades studying the many Orbit variations in China. I am confident my evolution of a version from the famous Taoist Wudang Mountain is the most powerful orbit method available. One reason I am so confident is because I’ve not only tested dozens of different orbit methods on myself, but also on thousands of Western students, and observed their positive response. I’m a spiritual scientist, and favor “what works now” over “what worked for someone else in the past” – a trap that lineage chasers sometimes make.
When you do a practice long enough, it reveals deeper secrets to you. Experimentation is at the very heart of the alchemical process. Inner Alchemy is just a way of describing our human power to speed up our evolution. Alchemy keep things simple by working directly with the 3 streams of the Life Force. Negative, positive, and neutral; or yin, yang, and yuan Qi in Taoist language.
Two things are required to master this new orbit method: the mechanics of the method itself, and a transmission, which is essentially my guiding you to feel it. The transmission, which I give on the second day of my workshop on Medical and Spiritual Qigong Fundamentals 1 & 2, involves inviting in a dragon spirit to inhabit and spin inside one’s personal elixir, or Inner Pearl. So you first need to know how to form that Pearl, and make it real. I reveal those methods as well.
But inviting a dragon spirit inside one’s body? Dragons in Western mythology are generally regarded as extremely dangerous creatures. Most Western adults make them “safe” by not believing dragons are real. That is partly because their childhood power of imagination was beaten out of them by adults concerned for their ability to conform to social norms.. The culture does that in order to make kids grow up into well-behaved social and economic robots. Perversely, many in Western culture DO believe in the Devil, as it wants you to sell your soul in exchange for a few creature comforts.
Personally, I acknowledge that both dragons and demons have reality. But you won’t find them in the physical plane, by looking under a scientist’s microscope. They exist in the astral plane, the dream plane you fleetingly visit at night. If you want to deal with them consciously, you have to awaken your natural multi-dimensionality.
1. Everything in Our Universe is SPINNING
I know for myself that dragons are real; they just aren’t “physical”. Like most spiritual beings, they live in the astral planes, invisible to ordinary sight. But pretend for the moment that “dragon” is a metaphor for a “natural spinning force”. Even the most nerdy scientist can observe that the spinning force is the dominant power in this Cosmos.
Electrons and protons spin around neutrons. The earth spins on its axis. The planets spin around the sun, the sun spins around the zodiac, and the zodiac spins around some hidden super-galactic center, whose mega black hole spin is so powerful it swallows all gravity and light even as as it burps back out 100 trillion stars.
Electron microscope photo of egg & sperm. Photo fails to show the collective force of hundreds of sperm spinning the egg, readying it for implantation by the lucky sperm. There is a physically measurable burst of light emitted at the moment of fertilization.
Men and women spin around each other, in endless sexual play. When human sperm fertilize an egg, they must first gang up and get the giant (to them) egg spinning rapidly, so the incoming soul can “spin into matter”. So spin is the key to fertility (hint: if you’re having trouble getting pregnant, a spinning orbit may help).
Spinning is THE process necessary at the moment of conception, beyond all the egg-sperm chemistry. The vibratory spin of your soul is your signature, so Source can track you. “All the world’s a spinning theatre”, to paraphrase a famous bard.
But how many of us ever figure out where that spinning force comes from? Or why there has to be a still space of “no spin” in the center of it? If you did, you’d get the Nobel Prize for figuring out perpetual motion. Nature is not stupid; it spins for a good reason. Some meditators foolishly dream they can stop the spin, but Creation seems to keep on spinning despite their ambitions to achieve an Absolute Emptiness.
If you could capture the spinning force, you would have the greatest power in all Creation at your “psychic fingertips”. Hopefully you would apply this spiral power to spreading love, balance, and harmony.
For a lover of Tao, learning the Spinning Dragon Orbit simply means you are empowered to EFFORTLESSLY create deeper harmony and balance in your life. That’s my experience. You don’t need to effort with your everyday mind to cause the spin. The spinning Dragon force, once you get it going, is effortless, alive and intelligent. It naturally keeps spinning.
The Taoists call the deepest level of spin the True Qi, or Original Yin-Yang force. Its balanced spinning Qi silently overflows into your health, your relationships, your career. It deepens your spiritual path by internally grounding you. It guides your destiny like an internal spinning gyroscope.
The orbit supports your unique virtues and your soul’s natural loving presence to flow in graceful spirals out into your everyday life. It flows into your life via the 8 Extraordinary Vessels, which overflow into your 12 regular meridians.
Or consider the metaphor of a car. Once you get it started, it drives wherever you steer it, at whatever speed you choose. The difference between a car and the Orbit is that now you are driving the “car of your Energy Body”, and the fuel source, the Life Force, is free and infinite. Your rate of internal spin determines how much Qi you will draw in from the greater Qi field. You don’t need to pay for gas or new tires. The spinning Qi is a free gift from the Tao.
What could be more valuable than this? Do you treasure your personal Energy Body vehicle as much as you love your metal & plastic-molded automobile? Unfortunately, a lot of people treat their car better than they do their Energy Body.
But it’s never too late to wake up and enjoy a life of increased spiritual power. Are you open to receiving assistance from powerful, harmonious spinning dragon spirits, and to effortlessly spin your Way to health and happiness?
2. Orbit Harmonizes Above and Below.
Tao Cosmology holds as one of its primary principles the correspondence between Micro-cosmos and Macro-cosmos. There is a famous alchemical maxim that sums this up nicely: As Above, So Below. The orbit links Heaven and Earth within our personal Energy Body.
This means that if we can get our Qi flowing in an orbit pattern locally – IN OUR micro-cosmic BODY – that we will be in harmony with the flow of Qi in the larger macro-cosmic BODY OF NATURE.
Our body and nature’s body are mirror images of each other, a balanced micro-macro cosmic relationship. But if we are energetically asleep the forces in our subconscious can act out in wild and disturbing ways.
The Fire Path Orbit flows from our navel down into the perineum, the Yin Gate of Earth. Then it flows up the spine to the crown of the head, the Yang Gate of Heaven. On its continuous pathway between these portals to Heaven and Earth, Qi flows through key points that nourish our Human life – our sexual center, navel, solar plexus, heart, threat, third eye/pineal gland.
The Water Path Orbit runs the opposite direction – up the chest, over the head, down the spine and back to the navel.
Both the Fire and Water paths embody a model of INCLUSIVE-NESS within a process of continuous CHANGE. That is a pretty good summary of the essence of following the path of Tao. Heaven and Earth do not struggle for control over the other; they mirror each other, and learn from each other.
3. Orbit Circulates Sexual Energy, Enhances Creativity.
Historically, scholars believe the orbit may have originated over 2000 years ago in a sexual practice described in ancient texts. This method was to bring sexual essence from below to nourish and enliven the brain above. This Spinning Dragon Orbit method penetrates into the “jing” or substance level much more so than orbit methods that rely on breath or visualization only. The spinning pearl literally digs into deeper levels of our Energy Body, freeing trapped creativity.
If you do this method, at some point the “above” feels full and it spontaneousl overflows and intiates a downward flow. In Taoist alchemy, sexual energy is the secret alchemical agent that is needed to stimulate and raise our vibration to a higher level. This orbit version blends all the hormonal energies and concentrates our sexual essence and blood, making it possible to more quickly transform slower, more habitual organ pathways that can dominate our personality.
4. Orbit Balances 8 Extra-Ordinary Vessels to Control Deep Yin-Yang
The Orbit Meditation activates two primary deep channels in the body which help control the balance of yin and yang Qi flow. These two channels are part of the Eight Extraordinary Vessels, which is best understood as the SOUL CHANNELS that flow into the 12 BODY-MIND ORGAN CHANNELS.
The yang fire channel in the spine is known in Chinese medicine as the Governor Vessel, and the yin water channel up the center line of the torso & chest is called the Conception Vessel. Linking these two allow our personality to effortlessly shift from spirit into matter and back. The Spinning Pearl Dragon Orbit creates the ability to shift between Jing-Qi-Shen levels more quickly. Jing-Qi-Shen is the continuum of awareness from substance (Jing) to subtle breath t(Qi) o broad field of expanded awareness (aka spirit).
These “8 Extraordinary Vessels” control the yin-yang balance of the 12 meridians that regulate the 12 vital organs and bowels. So by opening and nourishing the flow in the orbit, we in effect leverage the harmony between the fire and water channels to influence simultaneously all 12 of the organ meridians that govern our health and personality. So instead of trying to “fix” things on the outer level, we balance the flow of yin-yang Qi from within, on a deeper level.
5. Unified Chakra Model: a Spinning Wheel
If you are into the yogic model, you know that “chakra” means “spinning wheel”. The Spinning Dragon Orbit method creates a Unified Super-Chakra whose spin embraces and balances all the other chakras simultaneously.
I taught kundalini yoga for many years, and loved it. But I find that opening a single whole-body orbit is far more efficient than trying to “open” each individual chakra.
If you are a student of yoga, you might re-frame this to say that the Orbit is adjusting the flow of prana through all the chakras. So instead of trying to “open” a particular chakra, you are opening the faucet so the Qi (prana) pressure is increased and flows like an unstoppable river activating the spin of ALL the chakras.
The Orbit thus creates a Unified Chakra that integrates all the other chakras into a single dynamic spinning wheel of life.
6. Spiral Orbit Helps Concentrate Original Breath
Our deepest human instinct is to search for our Source. The orbit open the inner space in which we cultivate Yuan Qi (Original Breath). It offers a stable yin-yang egg-shaped vessel, where our inner embryo of our immortal soul can safely gestate.
A lot of students think that it’s enough to just balance out the flow of yin-yang Qi. This is generally the viewpoint of our personality, which is controlled by the tension between our left and right brain hemispheres.
Many have not yet awakened to the reality of a third kind of Qi that is NOT yin-yang polarized. It links us to our soul and over soul. It is known as Original Breath, or Yuan Qi. It is the energy of the Primordial Tao, the source of all creation’s many forms that we call Nature. The orbit flows around the center line of our body, exactly in between our left and right brains. In short, inner alchemy grows our CORE SELF.
Once we have balanced the yin-yang or fire/water Qi flowing around our micro-orbit, we can take the next step and begin to cultivate and grow our Yuan Qi in the core channel. This is called the chongmai, or Penetrating Vessel. This Qi flows in the center of our body, running from perineum to crown. It’s also known as the taiji pole, the spiraling axis between heaven and earth.
The outer path of the micro-orbit around our torso creates the shape of an egg. When we cultivate our Yuan Qi, it’s like we are nourishing the yolk of the egg deep inside us. That is what Taoists call the Immortal Embryo. When we shift from the outer orbit pathway to the core channel, we graduate to a deeper level of internal alchemy, the science of re-birthing our soul and making it tangible.
7. Spinning Pearls Orbits Forever, Once Set in Motion
I’ve integrated the Dragon Orbit into One Cloud’s system of water & fire internal alchemy. This spinning orbit kick starts the alchemy process into super-high frequencies and speeds up one’s progress. It is like graduating from “dial-up” to “broad band” internet – easier, faster, and more fun.
The spinning pearl functions like a fly-wheel. You get it going strongly, and its momentum keeps it spinning for a long time. You need to refresh it periodically, not so much to keep it going, but to get spinning at a deeper frequency within your Personal Energy Body. Each of us is on a path of peeling back layers to reveal our Original Self. It just auqestion of whether we do this quickly using a spiritual technology, or slowly, wiating for life to deliver its next lesson to us.
Even if you’ve learned other versions of the orbit from other teachers, I encourage you to study this version live or by home study. Consider it a “spiritual technology upgrade” that will change the trajectory of your Qi cultivation path, which is Taoist “energy-talk” way of saying it will change your life on multiple levels.
ORBIT WORKSHOP DETAILS
Oct. 16 – 17, 2021: Asheville, N.C. 9 am-6 pm
Day 1: Inner Smile, Five Animals Qigong, Six Healing Sounds, Tao Cosmology & inner alchemy theory.
