What about hand-foot (or hand-nose) polarity?

(Reply) (Thread)

That one hasn't bit me nearly as hard, and it's never come up as part of my training. If enough people show interest, I can run a second poll on it.

My lack of observed polarity may have be:
- I am unobservant
- I am easily right/left balanced in general. I'm just learning Baseball on the wii and I naturally apply progress and learning from batting lefthanded to batting righthanded
- I am dyslexic
- Being dyslexic, naturally ambidexterous, and having a horror of losing the function of one hand and never being able to ooooh write again, I go out of my way to crosstrain left and right. (with exceptions. Western Calligraphy? right hand. Brush Calligraphy? left hand.)
- The center, ground and crown school of energy work, and high incidence of reiki users, in my group of friends has energy flow going up and down or backward and forward more often than left right. That said, when I try to remember being part of a circuit, it was left in, right out. But I didn't set the circuit.

Although I am a barely a beginer at such things I always thought of my polarity as starting at my base and headed upwards. But maybe I did not understand the question or my concept of polarity is not the same.

I would not be surprised if other willworkers have used the term to describe a different phenomenon. I'm just using "polarity" because I think it fits the situation, not because of any existing definition.

Are you saying that it makes no difference to you whether you go left-right or right-left, but it does make a difference whether you draw up from ground or push down to ground?

From the ground to the sky, no I don't have a left or right preference I am aware of.

Similar to others here, I don't have a left-right preference but I consider myself moderately polarized anyway. That's because my usual pattern is wings in, hands out, with the occasional bout of firebreathing-like throat out for good measure. Wings-in (and tail used to ground) is not the most practical polarization for group work, but in retrospect I should have called it slight polarity; it's what I usually do, but it's not a problem for me to reorganize it at all. (If I have to create a new shield quickly- something I haven't had to do for a while because I maintain it carefully, but it's happened before due to needing heavy empathic shielding in a stressful situation and not giving it enough energy- I usually build that out from my wings.)

For the record, I'm right-handed, but left-armed: my right hand has much more dexerity, but my left arm and hand are significantly stronger. This is probably because I usually try to leave my right hand free when carrying stuff, so it's my left arm that usually does any heavy lifting.

My answer is "sometimes-to-usually" - on some occasions (not sure what the triggering factor is), what feels "natural" or "best idea" switches, and I go in with the dominant and out with the off hand.

I had a dream last night that I was able to identify another dragon because she was drinking a beer called Baxil's Brew.
