FES Quintessentials

Positive qualities: Childlike innocence and trust; feeling supported and loved, especially by male figures; faith in the providence of spiritual beings

Patterns of imbalance: Defensiveness, insecurity, mistrust of others; estrangement from higher spiritual authority; lack of support from the father or other masculine influences in childhood

Definition: Those who need Baby Blue Eyes feel unsure of themselves and are unable to trust in the goodness of others and of the world. Such individuals did not receive proper emotional support during childhood, and in particular may have lacked a healthy connection with the father or father-figure as a positive force of protection and guidance. If the father is absent, emotionally or physically, or if he is erratic and threatening (as with alcoholic violence), then the child is deprived of a basic sense of security and protection, and will grow up with a core belief that the world is an unsafe place in which to be. Such souls find it difficult to “let down their guard;” they tend to develop a protective shell of defensiveness, or intellectual cynicism. They especially find it difficult to be engaged in spiritual causes or pursuits, because they feel a lack of trust and support from the spiritual world. In extreme cases, this soul posture can lead not only to emotional isolation but also to antisocial or criminal tendencies, as the individual negates or reverses its positive spiritual connection. Baby Blue Eyes helps to restore the soul’s original innocence and childlike trust. The soul is helped in its healing by learning to recognize goodness in others and in the world, and thus to become more accepting, positive and open in its expressions and actions.
