Frosty the Snowman

I'm about to get all deep on you with Frosty the Snowman.  This seemingly simple children's tale about a snowman that comes to life has some very spiritual stuff going on.  I remember watching the show as a kid back in a time when shows were not on demand and seasonal Christmas shows like Rudolph the Reindeer and Frosty the Snowman only came on once a year.  Yes, I'm dating myself.

The story is about Frosty the Snowman coming to life when a magic hat was placed on his head.  When the hat is placed on his head, Frosty says, "Happy Birthday."

Let's dig deep with that.......and I mean DEEP.

Everything is energy.  Even seemingly solid objects are not solid.  Think atoms.  Let's think the life force.  Chakras are energy centers located in the human body.  There are many chakras, major and minor.  For simplicity sake, lets focus on the seven main chakras of the human body:

Base or Root Chakra:  Represents our foundation and feeling of being grounded.

• Location: Base of spine in tailbone area.
• Emotional issues: Survival issues such as financial independence, money and food.

Sacral Chakra:  Our connection and ability to accept others and new experiences.

• Location: Lower abdomen, about two inches below the navel and two inches in.
• Emotional issues: Sense of abundance, well-being, pleasure and sexuality.

Solar Plexus Chakra:  Our ability to be confident and in control of our lives.

• Location: Upper abdomen in the stomach area.
• Emotional issues: Self-worth, self-confidence and self-esteem.

Heart Chakra:  Our ability to love.

• Location: Center of chest just above the heart.
• Emotional issues: Love, joy and inner peace.

Throat Chakra:  Our ability to communicate.

• Location: Throat.
• Emotional issues: Communication, self-expression of feelings and the truth.

Third Eye:  Our ability to focus on and see the big picture.

• Location: Forehead between the eyes (also called the Brow Chakra).
• Emotional issues: Intuition, imagination, wisdom and the ability to think and make decisions.

Crown Chakra:  The highest chakra represents our ability to be fully connected spiritually.

• Location: The very top of the head.
• Emotional issues: Inner and outer beauty, our connection to spirituality and pure bliss.

I inserted a picture of the seven basic chakras and their location in the human body



What has this got to do with Frosty the Snowman you ask?  I'm getting to that.  If you study the function and purpose of the crown chakra, this is the connection to the spirit world.  Have you ever wondered why in some cultures it's so taboo to touch somebody on top of the head?  You're interfering with their connection to the spirit world with your energy which may be polluted.  It's sacred space, so to say.  The top of the head is where the soul enters and exits the body (birth, death).  The soul never dies, it just changes its manifestations. 

Now, getting to Frosty the Snowman.  Frosty comes to life when the "magic" hat is placed upon his HEAD and the first thing he says is, "Happy Birthday." (birth).  The soul has entered Frosty's body via the "magic" hat.

Just like humans, we all live for a while and death is inevitable.  Frosty knows this, too.  The temperature rises and frosty begins to melt, which can be compared to the process of death where the chakras begin to break away from the body.  Santa (God) comes to take Frosty away (back to the spirit world, heaven, or whatever you want to call it) and they take off in the sleigh with the reindeer (the team of spirit guardians we are all assigned when we are born). 

Frosty tells the children not to cry, as he will be back again someday (reincarnation).  Or, one could say that Frosty is the Christ Child as he says he will be back again on Christmas Day. 

So, there you have it.  Some deep stuff in what people write off as a silly children's cartoon.  And no, I was not drunk, high, nor under the influence of any drugs when I thought of this.  It came to me in a semi-sleep state.

Next blog:  HR Puffin' Stuff and Jimmy with his magic flute.  LOL.  Come on, you all remember the theme song if you grew up in the 70's.  "HR Puffin' Stuff - who's your friend when things get rough."

I'll leave you all with a little youtube video of Frosty coming to life with the magic hat and saying Happy Birthday.
