If that is, then do emotions exist outside of consciousness (so as to be able to indicate what vibration the shape is putting out).

Do the emotions actually effect the shape or only the vibration of the shape?
Emotions are your visceral response to the thoughts (or shape of your awareness) you are offering at any given point int time. Whatever you place your attention on is the shape of your consciousness at any given time. In other words, it is what your attention is limited to, or focused upon.

Emotions, are also part of the shape of your awareness, but they are by and large, involuntary responses *TO* choice, not choices as such. When you focus on things you desire, positive emotion occurs as a reaction to that thought. As you ponder that emotion, it becomes a deliberate and creative thought as well. When the feeling is an involuntary response, it is an emotional reaction. When it is deliberate, it is thought. Deliberate or intentional implies the directional focus of energy, whereas emotions are merely responses to said deliberate energy.

One is projective and one is receptive. Does that help?
