IFS Seven Rays Course

A luminous, contemplative arrangement representing the Seven Rays as integrated spiritual energies, symbolizing balance, harmony, and inner alignment through light and form.

A free course inside the Everything IFS Academy





The Seven Rays are an ancient framework for understanding how consciousness expresses itself through different qualities of energy, perception, and action. Rather than describing personality types or rigid categories, the Rays point to living currents that move through individuals, relationships, and inner systems shaping how will, love, intelligence, conflict, devotion, and form show up in real life.

Often, teachings on the Seven Rays become abstract, overly technical, or disconnected from lived experience. They can sound esoteric without being practical, symbolic without being embodied. This course takes a different approach.


This free course explores the Seven Rays through direct inner experience, thoughtfully informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS). It is not therapy, and it does not replace esoteric, theosophical, or spiritual traditions associated with the Rays. It is designed for people who want to understand how these energies actually operate inside a human system how they support growth, create distortion, and return to balance when held by Self.



What This Course Offers

This course invites you to encounter the Seven Rays as living forces within your inner world, not abstract spiritual concepts.

Inside the course, you’ll explore:

  • Will, power, and authority as inner alignment rather than force

  • Love, wisdom, and intelligence as relational energies within the system

  • Conflict and tension as catalysts for transformation

  • Devotion, idealism, and meaning-making in the inner life

  • Structure, ritual, and manifestation as expressions of coherence

Throughout the course, insights from Internal Family Systems (IFS) help illuminate how different parts relate to each Ray how protectors carry distorted versions, how exiles respond to imbalance, and how Self holds each Ray with clarity, steadiness, and compassion.

This approach does not replace esoteric tradition. It does not turn spiritual archetypes into psychology. It offers another lens for noticing what is already there

How This Course Is Different

You won’t find:

  • The Seven Rays reduced to personality typing

  • Abstract metaphysics disconnected from inner experience

  • Spiritual power framed as dominance, control, or bypassing

You will find:

  • Rays explored through embodied, relational awareness

  • Space for both distortion and balance without moralizing

  • An emphasis on Self-led integration rather than force or effort


Each lesson includes historical notes and optional reflective elements, encouraging slow, thoughtful engagement and allowing insight to emerge through lived understanding rather than conceptual mastery.
