Thought
and emotion forms have energy, power, and a life of their own. They
stream out of every human being like a toy bubble blower. Those who are
sensitive can not only feel them, but can see and determine their
nature. Most call this "intuition"; the same mechanism is why some feel
lower vibrational thought/emotion forms as if something
foreboding/negative is about to happen. What happens is that this energy
hits your seven primary energy centers in varying degrees (aka
"chakras").
The way the body expresses love is also an interesting phenomenon. A person's pupils dilate when attraction is present. Pupil
dilation: To start off with pupil dilation can indicate liking, interest,
attraction or….. intense fear. (we’ll leave out intense fear for
another segment). This
is due to the sudden changes in body chemistry and blood circulation.
For example: some people experience cold fingers and some people get a
shaky hand. This is blood shifting to the parts of the body where it is
required and this causes various effects in the body not just pupil
dilation. Breasts expand and you produce more pheromones. etc.
I'll
elaborate. Pupillary dilation is called mydriasis and is mediated by
the sympathetic component of the nervous system. The sympathetic output
is elicited by anything that causes arousal -- fear, emotion, surprise,
etc. So, seeing someone you're attracted to clearly fits in this
category, and results in sympathetic activation, which causes mydriasis
of the pupils.
The sympathetic system is also responsible for the other physiological
manifestations of attraction, such as increased heart rate, nervousness,
increased respiratory rate, etc.
Our pupils dilate and grow when we see someone we are attracted to. Why?
Because our eyes enlarge to take more of this person in. This is an
unconscious occurrence which we cannot physiologically control. The fun
part about this is you are able to tell if someone is interested in you
by observing their pupils – do they expand or contract? Contracting
would not be good as it indicates intense dislike. Of course, you need
to take the environment into account as well. If you are standing in the
sun it may be difficult for the physiological response of pupil
dilation to occur. On the flip side, if you are standing in a dark area,
pupils will automatically contract, even if there is no liking
involved. In addition, remember that some people will have larger or
smaller pupils by nature.
Psychological
experiments have been conducted by touching (i.e. by drawing to make it
appear bigger/dilated) a persons pupils alone and presenting the photos
to people of the opposite sex. Consistently they had picked out those
whose pupils had been touched to appear dilated as more attractive
without knowing why. This is one of the subliminal responses that
attracts you to people (sometimes of the same sex also).
Dark restaurants induce romance because the dim lights encourage the larger pupils making people more attracted to one another.
The fun part about this is that most people do not consciously
understand pupil response so you are now one up on a great deal of the
population.
Studies done indicate as pupil size increases so does attractiveness.
For example: models on magazine covers normally have their pupils
doctored to give them larger pupils because advertisers know this sells
more magazines. Likewise, if pupils appear smaller, it decreases the
attractiveness.
Interesting tidbit: During the middle ages, women often used a plant
extract called Belladonna (Italian for "beautiful lady") To give
themselves bigger pupils. They would put drops of the extract into their
eyes in order to look more attractive to men - and it worked. The
problem was Belladonna was poisonous so the women used Belladonna to
look beautiful….. and they did….. and then they would die.
Okay, so important points to keep in mind, dilation works in an
"unconscious" fashion. Individuals with enlarged pupils are
subconsciously seen as attractive, warm, friendly, conscientious people.
