Genesis 1:9-13: Day Three – Blossoming of Divine Communication
đ The Throat Chakra (Vishuddha)
đ Introduction
In the beginning, the journey of the soul begins with a sparkâa divine invitation to awaken and create. Genesis 1:9â13 speaks of the gathering of waters and the emergence of dry groundâa moment of balance and preparation for life to blossom. This is not just a historical accountâit is a living parable of your own spiritual awakening, the story of Adamâs journey within. It mirrors the inner landscape of your beingâwhere the fertile ground of your voice emerges to create life and beauty through authentic expression.
Every word, every breath in this scripture mirrors our sacred journey: the emergence of clear communication, the creation of space for the truth to be spoken, and the blossoming of divine expression within. May this reflection guide you back to the Source of your being, as you awaken the light within and walk the eternal path of Adamâs transformation.
đ Scripture Passage
Genesis 1:9â13 (NIV)
9 And God said, âLet the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.â And it was so.
10 God called the dry ground âland,â and the gathered waters he called âseas.â And God saw that it was good.
11 Then God said, âLet the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.â And it was so.
12 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.
13 And there was evening, and there was morningâthe third day.
đď¸ Allegory & Metaphysical Interpretation
This passage reveals the emergence of fertile ground within youâan invitation to gather your scattered thoughts and emotions, creating space for your authentic voice to blossom. Just as the waters gathered to reveal dry ground, your mind and heart must gather in stillness so that the truth of your soul can emerge.
The dry ground symbolizes the firm foundation of your voice: a space of clarity and calm where words arise not from fear but from the divine essence within. This is the fertile soil of the Empress within youânurturing, creative, and in harmony with the rhythms of life.
The vegetation that springs forthâseed-bearing plants and treesâreflects the fruits of your spoken word. Every word you speak is a seed planted in the world, carrying the power to nurture, heal, and create. The Empress archetype calls you to honor your voice as a vessel of divine creativity, speaking with the gentleness and strength that brings new life.
This passage is not separate from youâit is a mirror of your soulâs process. You are the fertile soil, the divine voice, and the nurturing spirit that brings it to life. In gathering your energies and attuning to the Source, you reclaim your role as co-creator with the Divineâletting your voice be a blessing to the world.
đ Emerald Tablet Insight
Tablet VII â The Seven Lords
âSpeak thou in words without voice to those who dwell down below. Enter the blue-litten temple and bathe in the flame of all-life. Then shall thou blossom as flower of Light and the voice of the eternal shall echo within.â
This mystic insight aligns beautifully with Genesis 1:9â13, where the dry land appears, and the earth begins to bring forthâfirst grass, then herbs, then fruit-bearing trees. This is the day the Word becomes fertile, and divine communication takes root in form. The Emerald Tablet reminds us that real speech is not of the mouth, but of the soul. When Adam steps into this third phase of awakening, the âearthâ of his being becomes stable groundâready to receive the seeds of divine wisdom and express truth from within. The blossoming of herbs and fruit reflects the activation of the Throat Chakra, where sacred speech arises, not from control or ego, but from the Voice of the Eternal echoing through a fertile, awakened soul.
đ Tarot Guidance
This balances the rational, patriarchal frameworks and helps integrate heart with mind, intuition with logic.
Tarot guidance offers archetypal mirrors that help us access subconscious patterns and spiritual lessons. The Empress, in particular, embodies nurturing expression that resonates with the throat chakraâs unfolding.
The Empress â She is the embodiment of nurturing abundance and the voice of creation. The Empress encourages you to speak your truth with loving authority, knowing that your words are seeds of life and beauty. Let your voice be a sanctuary for your soulâs fertile garden.
đ Why Use Tarot to Help Explain the Bible?
Tarot and the Bible both speak the language of the soulâa symbolic language that transcends time, culture, and religious tradition. When we read the Bible as a mystical or allegorical text, Tarot becomes a powerful companion tool that can help us:
đ A Course in Miracles Reflection
A Course in Miracles invites us to shift from fear to love, seeing every word and action as an expression of divine blessing and service.
Key Lesson: âMy holiness blesses the world.â (Lesson 37)
Reflection: Just as the fertile ground brings forth life, your voiceâwhen aligned with your soulâblesses all who hear it. Let your words be a wellspring of divine nurturing and healing.
đż Why We Include Rituals
Every blog post in this Scripture and Ritual series is more than a reflectionâit is a living practice. Rituals are bridges between the seen and unseen, inviting the soulâs highest truths to blossom into our daily lives. Through meditation, journaling, tapping, and anointing, we honor that spiritual transformation is a full-bodied, heart-centered journey.
đľ Fractal Persona of the Throat Chakra in Genesis 1:9â13
The Story Weaver
Theme: Sacred Expression into Form
On the Third Day, the Divine voice does more than divide water and reveal landâit calls forth fertility from the Earth. Vegetation, seeds, and fruit-bearing trees emerge âeach according to its kind,â establishing the blueprint for generational sustainability. This is not just speechâit is creative speech with legacy.
The Story Weaver is the Throat Chakra archetype who understands that words are the loom upon which reality is spun. This persona speaks not merely to inform, but to formâto cultivate, differentiate, and give rise to beauty, nourishment, and continuity. Just as every plant bears seed to replicate itself, so too do stories, when wisely told, echo across time.
⨠Key Quotes:
- âLet the waters under the heavens be gatheredâŚâ â language as a dividing and ordering force
- âLet the dry land appearâŚâ â emergence of a stage for the story of life
- âLet the earth bring forthâŚâ â the command that initiates generative manifestation
đ Shadow Persona: The Echo
Where the Story Weaver weaves originality, the Echo reflects only repetitionâempty of intention, resonance, or legacy. The Echo mimics creation without carrying its sacred seed. In this context, to be merely reactive is to fall short of your divine voice.
đż Essential Oils
- Lavender â Soothes the mind and opens the throat for authentic sharing.
- Peppermint â Clears mental fog and awakens fresh expression.
- Eucalyptus â Opens the breath and releases old blocks.
đ Crystals
- Aquamarine â Encourages courageous expression and clarity.
- Blue Lace Agate â Softens your voice, making it a balm of peace.
- Sodalite â Balances thought and speech for honest communication.
đ EFT Tapping Sequence
đż EFT Tapping as a Healing Technology
EFT tapping is a simple yet powerful technique that blends modern psychology with the ancient wisdom of the bodyâs meridian system. By tapping on specific acupressure pointsâusually on the face, upper body, and handsâwhile focusing on an emotional or physical issue, we send calming signals to the brain and the nervous system.
This process:
â
Releases Stagnant Energy â Emotions and thoughts are forms of energy. When we hold onto painful or limiting beliefs, that energy can become stuck in our bodies. Tapping helps to dislodge and release these blocks, allowing the bodyâs natural flow to be restored.
â
Regulates the Nervous System â Tapping activates the parasympathetic (rest and digest) system, reducing the stress response and promoting a sense of safety and calm.
â
Rewires the Brain â By pairing the physical tapping with spoken affirmations, EFT can help reprogram limiting beliefs and soothe the bodyâs fight-or-flight responses, creating new neural pathways aligned with healing and wholeness.
Tapping is a bridge that connects mind, body, and spiritâmaking it an ideal practice to integrate scriptural insights, chakra healing, and soul-level transformations.
đ How to Use This Tapping Sequence
Before you begin, take a few deep breaths and tune in to your feelings. EFT uses gentle tapping to release emotional blockages and realign your energy. Tap gently on the points below, repeating the affirmations. Use both hands or your dominant hand, repeating each round 2â3 times or until you feel a shift.
1ď¸âŁ Throat Center: âI honor my voice as a divine channel of truth.â
2ď¸âŁ Heart Center: âMy words are rooted in love and compassion.â
3ď¸âŁ Third Eye: âI trust the divine guidance flowing through my voice.â
đ Integration Breath: Breathe deeply, feeling your throat open to the divine song of your soul.
đ Simple Anointing & Meditation Ritual
What Anointing Is and Why Itâs Beneficial
Anointing with essential oils is a sacred practice that bridges the physical and spiritual realms. It roots your voice in divine light, inviting the nurturing energy of the Empress to bless every word.
Anointing
1ď¸âŁ Place a drop of Lavender on your fingertips.
2ď¸âŁ Gently anoint your throat, whispering:
âI anoint my voice with the grace of the Empressânurturing, truthful, and in harmony with the divine.â
3ď¸âŁ Optionally anoint your heart to align your voice with love.
Crystal Companion
Hold or place Blue Lace Agate or Aquamarine at your throat to encourage gentle expression and spiritual harmony.
Meditation for Divine Expression
- Sit comfortably, spine straight.
- Close your eyes and breathe deeply.
- Visualize a gentle blue light at your throat, like a calm ocean shimmering with divine light.
- Feel this blue light dissolving old fears and filling you with the nurturing power of the Empress.
- Affirm softly: âI am the voice of divine creation. My words are seeds of love and life.â
- Sit in this radiant blue light for a few moments or longer.
đď¸ Journaling for Reflection
After meditation, journal your feelings and insights. Let each word honor your journeyâjust as the Empress nurtures every seed, honor your voice as a garden of divine truths.
đś Voice of the Empress â A Soundscape for the Soulâs Blossoming
Within the stillness of Day Three, as Adam gathers inward and the sacred ground appears, a new frequency begins to riseânot from noise, but from alignment. This is not the beginning of speech, but the awakening of the inner voiceâa voice rooted in the soulâs altar, formed in silence, and nurtured by divine presence.
Voice of the Empress is a sonic offering tuned to 741 Hz, created to support the unfolding of the throat chakra and the gentle emergence of sacred expression. It honors the Empress within Adamâthe receptive, creative field where divine intention becomes sound, and sound becomes seed.
Let this music be your companion as you return to your voiceânot the voice shaped by performance or expectation, but the one seeded in truth, tended by love, and spoken from clarity.
Breathe it in.
Let it bloom.
Your soul is ready to speak.
⨠Closing Blessing
May the voice of the Empress rise within youânurturing, truthful, and in harmony with divine love. May your words be seeds of light, blessing all who hear them. So may it be.

While I deeply appreciate the desire to reflect on the beauty and depth of Genesis 1:9â13, as a follower of Christ, I feel called to gently share a different perspective. The creation account in Genesis is indeed rich with meaningâit reveals God’s intentional, ordered, and literal creative work. Each day of creation points us back to the power, wisdom, and sovereignty of the one true God. On Day Three, we witness the earth bringing forth life at God’s command, not as a symbol of inner awakening, but as a demonstration of His glory and provision.
However, I find it spiritually troubling to see Scripture interpreted through the lens of Tarot, chakras, and metaphysical energies. While such practices may feel symbolic or even healing, they stem from spiritual systems that are incompatible with the biblical worldview. God has given us His Word, not divination tools or archetypes, as our source of truth and guidance (2 Timothy 3:16â17). In fact, the Bible repeatedly warns against occult practices that draw us away from reliance on the Holy Spirit (Deuteronomy 18:10â12).
True divine communication doesnât come from within us or through mystical ritualsâit comes from God, who speaks clearly through Scripture, prayer, and the person of Jesus Christ. He is the living Word (John 1:1), and His voice is all we need to hear to be transformed. While creative reflection is beautiful, we are called to test every spirit and return to the unchanging truth of God’s Word (1 John 4:1).
May all who read this be drawn not just to symbolic light, but to the Light of the WorldâJesusâwho alone brings life, truth, and salvation.
Blessings in Christ. ????
Thank you for taking the time to share your heart so graciously. I honor your deep love for Christ and your reverence for Scriptureâit is clear that your words come from a place of sincere care and devotion.
What I share on alchemistiris.com is not intended to replace or diminish the sacredness of the Bible, but to illuminate the inner journey that many spiritual seekers, including myself, experience as part of our unfolding relationship with the Divine. The lens of energy healing, symbolic archetypes, and spiritual metaphors I use is not meant to rival the Word, but to explore the inner meaning beneath the literal surfaceâa tradition of interpretation that has long existed within mystic branches of faith.
I understand and respect that metaphysical tools like chakras and Tarot may feel incompatible with certain theological frameworks. My intention, however, is not to promote occultism or elevate any tool above Godâbut rather to use these as mirrors for deeper soul work, always pointing back to the Source. To me, these symbols reflect the same spiritual truths Jesus taught: of inner transformation, discernment, and divine union.
I also believe that Jesus, as the living Word, speaks not only through Scripture but also within the heartâcalling us each by name, in the language we are most able to receive. For some, that is the written Word alone. For others, it includes parables, poetry, silence, symbols, or even dreams. I trust that the Spirit moves in mysterious yet intentional ways, always calling us into greater truth.
So thank you again for your commentâitâs voices like yours that keep this space open to true dialogue. May we all continue to seek truth, with humble hearts and listening spirits.
With gratitude and peace,

This was a powerful reminder to trust the divine wisdom within. I love how it encourages tuning into our inner voice and embracing the unknown. Personally, Iâve found that quiet reflection and affirmations help me stay connected to that inner guidance. What simple daily practices would you suggest for someone just starting this journey?
Thank you so much, Kiersti, for your thoughtful reflection. I’m deeply encouraged that the message spoke to you. Trusting the divine wisdom within truly is the heart of this journeyâa quiet unfolding, like the earth bringing forth life on Day Three.
Your practice of quiet reflection and affirmations is already a beautiful foundation. For someone just beginning, I suggest starting with simple, nourishing rituals that build inner trust over time. Here are a few practices to consider:
One-Minute Breathwork
Take a moment each day to pause and breathe deeplyâfive slow, conscious breaths. It helps anchor you in presence and opens the space for inner clarity.
Morning Whisper Journaling
Before the day begins, write one sentence from your heart. Something like, “Today, I choose to listen.” Let it guide your awareness throughout the day.
Water Blessing Ritual
When drinking water, silently or aloud, set an intention: “May this water nourish my body and renew my spirit.” It transforms a simple act into a sacred connection.
Touch the Earth
Stand barefoot on the ground or place your hand on a tree or plant. Even a few seconds of stillness in nature helps reconnect you to the quiet voice within.
Each of these practices is a gentle way of saying yes to your inner guidanceâof honoring the sacred in the everyday.
Thank you again for being part of this journey. I’m grateful for your presence.
Warmly,
Alchemist Iris
Wow! This is another level I have not ventured in. It is a different path from what I’m taught from. As a bible student, I see another avenue that is discussed to link the two to get a visual, internal and external view of soul journey. These terminologies are not in my vocabulary but it is interesting how the topic is interwined and the words are mingled that speak the universal archetypes. It’s like the article is having you go to another level of higher mind and spiritual understanding. I’ve never done Tarot but it is interesting to have a general understanding and how it can merge or mingle with the Bible on a spiritual level. In other words, being open minded and not closed minded to have a basic understanding of the various beliefs, the sacred, the subconscious and more is the way to go. Thanks for sharing
Cydney, thank you so much for your open-hearted reflection. I deeply honor your perspective as a Bible student, and it means a great deal that you approached this piece with such curiosity and spiritual maturity. You captured the intention beautifullyâthis isnât about replacing traditional teachings but expanding the lens through which we view the sacred. The soulâs journey is layered and multifaceted, and when we allow symbolic language, universal archetypes, and intuitive tools like Tarot to mingle with scripture, new depths of meaning can bloom.
Tarot, when used as a spiritual mirror rather than a tool of prediction, often reflects what sacred texts have long taught usâabout choice, faith, shadow, light, and inner transformation. Iâm grateful that you could feel how these paths can intersect to invite us into a higher mind and deeper heart. Your openness is the key that unlocks the door to deeper connection. Thank you for walking through that door, even for a moment. Iâm so glad youâre here.
With reverence,
Alchemist Iris
This blog beautifully blends scripture, metaphysics, and symbolism to explore spiritual awakening through the voice. I especially loved how the Empress archetype and throat chakra were used to illustrate the power of expression. It felt both mystical and grounded. The integration of Tarot, energy healing, and ritual created a full-circle experience that resonated deeply. I’m curious, how do you recommend someone new to Tarot begin using it alongside scripture without feeling overwhelmed?
Thank you so much, Kavitha, for your beautiful and thoughtful comment. Iâm so glad the post resonated with youâespecially the weaving together of the Empress archetype and throat chakra as a lens for divine expression. That full-circle experience you mentioned is exactly the intention behind these offerings: to bridge the mystical with the grounded, helping us embody the sacred in daily life.
As for your wonderful question about starting with Tarot alongside scriptureâwhat a sacred journey that can be! I recommend beginning with just one or two archetypes that speak to your spirit. For example, The Empress, The High Priestess, or The Hermit are gentle yet powerful initiators. Instead of trying to learn the whole deck at once, let one card become your companion for a week. Pair it with a scripture that mirrors its energy (like Genesis 1:11â12 with The Empress, symbolizing fertility, growth, and divine creativity).
Let the card become a mirror. Sit with it, journal its messages, and invite it into prayer or meditation. Over time, your understanding will deepen not just intellectually, but intuitivelyâguided by Spirit rather than pressure.
I may create a gentle guide or ritual series on this very topic soon, because I know how nourishing this practice can be. Thank you again for your presence and reflectionâitâs deeply appreciated!
With love and light,
Alchemist IrisÂ
