How to Use the Law of Polarity To Stay Positive

The Law of Polarity states that everything has two polarities or extremes. Theses opposites are actually part of the same pole just situated at different ends. Everything in between are varying degrees of the same. This goes for happiness and sadness, hot or cold, rich or poor. This philosophy comes from the ancient Hermetic text called The Kybalion which says, "the difference between things diametically opposed to each other is merely a matter of degree". This could be called the Principle of Practicality since it offers a practical tool for living, healing and staying positive about any event in your life. It's just a matter of degree where you place yourself along the pole. Read on to learn more.

  Mentally picture the pole and slide a lever up or down the pole to your desired feeling. Think of it as a mixing board on a sound system or a pilot's control panel. By positive thoughts you can move the lever to a better place. If you are worried about money, place the lever towards prosperity not poverty. You can only push yourself as far as you allow your own thoughts so be realistic. If you can only move the lever one notch higher that's better than no movement at all. The goal is of course to see yourself totally prosperous.
