Technicolor

So where do you go when it seems that you alone are able to see things clearly and even you have trouble seeing through the fog?  We might suggest that going within and surrendering to the voice of your soul is always a good place to start. But separating the voice of the ego from that of your own inner wisdom can be a tricky proposition. You might begin with meditation.  In order to hear clearly, it is always helpful to turn down the volume and distractions of the outside world. 

If one is to go within for answers, it also helps to know what are the questions.  Many are dissatisfied with the status quo but have not defined for themselves what about it they do not like.  Clear thinking is all about removing the things that do not represent the key issues and allow the underlying source of irritation to rise to the surface. 

Once you have identified your core issue, it would be helpful to slowly examine it for nuances that you have been too involved to notice before.  Slowly examine it from all sides, not just the fixed point that you usually see things from, and consciously begin to see how others might see things differently.  This is indeed a group process of discovery and those who are your partners in the drama of life are there to share their views in order that you might become less entrenched in your singular view and find a more universal vantage point.

Next we might recommend looking to see if there are any soft or tender points that need exploring. Many times what we believe to be true may only appear so because there is a weak structural element that has been covered up to appear whole. On closer examination, the underlying house of cards may fall when it is discovered that one of the supporting member lacked integrity. Begin to explore the possibilities. If this were not as it appears, how might this alter the situation and therefore reality?  Be open to all possibilities for in so doing you allow the ease and grace of higher purpose to flow unencumbered through the process.

Your world is filled with situations that are morphing from the known into a whole new definition of reality.  It behooves you to refrain from attachment to present constructs in order to allow for their transformation into different forms of expression. As the atmosphere realigns with a frequency of Loving awareness, it will necessitate that structures and beliefs that are not in alignment with this are either disintegrating from lack of substance or reforming in the new image.

Being in this world but not of it continues to redefine itself as more and more realize the temporary nature of existence on the earth plane and are willing to trade their present “reality” for something better and lasting. We do not mean that masses of souls are choosing to leave incarnation, though some are doing so, but that the firmament of the third-dimensional world is no longer the place where one feels at home and more and more are choosing to elevate their awareness and create a different reality while in form. 

This is the shift that is happening as we speak.  It is taking place in the minds and structures and institutions of the earth plane as more and more come into resonance and frequency of unconditional Love. Not there yet, but accelerating at a “mind-blowing” rate so that in the next year it will hardly be recognizable to that of your father’s generation.  This is the new world that is forming around you.  Will you be part of it or stuck in a “reality show” of the old and worn-out?  We invite you to switch the channel and become one with the new paradigm of Loving expression. Oh yeah, Technicolor…

Re-Formation

After all is said and done, what will be the reality of your world?  What do you intend to be the structure of a life lived in the new reality? Will life be just a refinement of business as usual or do you have other intentions? If the old reality is not good enough, what might your new world look like?  We have a few suggestions…

First, how might you make your living? Are you willing to surrender the means and how and trust in the universe to provide in harmony with your needs and intentions? If not what kind of leap of faith might be necessary to make this so? What is preventing you from following the directive of your higher self in doing the very thing that excited and energizes your soul and is your higher purpose that you can share with the world? What gift does the unique you have that you can place in the unfolding mosaic of God expressed in humanity? Only you know what this is. It is time to delve deep within in order to discover this treasure that only you can give.

And what about where and how to live… We might suggest that you contemplate deeply, asking to be shown where on Earth you can be of greatest service. The frequency of the earth is changing and many are being called to areas that resonate in closer alignment with their energetic vibration. This will determine not only where but how you relate to the earth mother on a daily basis. Certainly the experience of someone who lives in a penthouse is different from another that resides in a tipi. How close do you wish to be to the heart of the divine Earth Mother? Listen to you your heart as you explore the possibilities. What is to be sacrificed and what would be gained? Listen within to the voice of your soul.

And who do you wish to include in the next phase of life? Is this to be a solo journey? Unlike previous times all are being called together in mutual support for each other in order to pool resources and understanding of the tremendous shift that is taking place. Individual pursuits have been beneficial to the expansion of life on earth but now is time to begin to put together the pieces in order to form a new masterpiece. All of you have interlocking parts in the puzzle of life if only you will put aside the illusions of separateness and find the similarities that will enable the reformation of new structures from the rubble of the old. You will be shown how these fit if you are willing to set aside the blinders put in place by the ego and begin to work together in a unified effort to create the new reality.

And what about partnerships? The old illusion of separation that defined the essence of relationships as being comprised of God, self and others is slowly melting into the new vision of All or Oneness. Defining how all retain their uniqueness but integrate into a viable partnership will continue to define itself as aspects of the mosaic of God expressing in the fifth-dimensional universe. Acceptance and participation will be important as realities warp and reform in a holographic image on the time/space continuum.  The density of matter and form are morphing into new versions of the old, transformed into the “new and improved”. Do not be too rigid in your views and expectations of differing realities as all is being reformed in ways that coincide with this shift.

The only certainty in this time is change. The only thing real is Love. Allow the pieces to fall into place and enjoy the spectacle of creation forming in and through you in this new reality.  Sparkle on…

Peace


Peace

While life might be perceived by some as being chaotic, we might offer that in reality everything is going exactly according to plan. It requires the breaking of the external shell to allow the emerging magnificence to be born. It is all good. Soon the remnants of a life lived in pain, fear and suffering will be distant memories that were discarded in order to embrace the new reality. You are serving, in fact, as midwives to this emerging new world.

That said, we have a few suggestions that might ease the labor pains. First, do not attach yourself to anyone or anything. It is important to be as free as possible to move in your space in order to come into alignment with the new frequencies. Unless those to which you are tethered are of the same frequency, you will not be able to remain in equilibrium when moving through the dimensional portal.

Liquidize - the more “stuff” you try to bring along, the more difficult this passage will become. Allow the dramas in your life to take a backseat for now and concentrate on just being in your higher space while the background rearranges itself. It is almost like being in a state of suspended animation if you are whole, complete and operating in a state of peace.

Peace is the operative word right now. All is peaceful if you choose it to be so.  Many around the world are tuning into this frequency of Love made manifest. The more the global community is able to tune into this frequency of peace, the more this will become the reality. The efforts to make this so have not gone unnoticed on the higher realms.  There are  sparks of peace around the earth that are igniting fires of recognition everywhere.  While many have not entirely grasped the magnitude of what this really means once it is realized, it is a beginning and one that must be nurtured if it is to become a reality.

As it has been said, peace is really an inside job for this is where it must begin. That is the real “grass roots” level of experience. Until one has mastered some level of inner peace and be willing to embrace the concept of brotherhood of all – not just with those that come easy - there will be little chance of uniting a diverse world in this experience. You might begin by thinking of those with whom you have the greatest difficulty connecting. Of these, what areas of common agreement do you share? This must be where peace starts.

Begin to build a common foundation on which to build a sanctuary of peace. The more commonalities you can share with each other, the greater will be the opportunity to find new ones to replace the broken ones of suspicion, distrust and disagreement. Keep searching for there is a common bond that connects all pieces of humanity if only we are willing to dig deeper amongst the rubble of explosive interaction and resurrect the peaceful Home we all long for.

Peace in your world will only be achieved when brothers and sisters put aside the things that make us unique for now and start to bring together the things that unite us in the body of God. This is the core of our creation that is beckoning us all Home. Our differences are the accessories that decorate our lives with joy and wonder. These gifts will go unsung without the body of God that is forged from the Oneness. Be willing to become part of the essential body of creation and you will find ample opportunity to decorate the All with your unique gifts. Come Home in Peace…

Common Ground


If you believe that you are serving a higher purpose in all that you do, you will ultimately achieve that goal.  If you believe that all is in chaos and that you are at the mercy of the forces beyond your control, then this is what you will create. When all is transpiring in your world within the parameters of your belief system, doesn’t it make sense to create a world of greater potential and awareness?

As for how we might recommend that you go about this, we might suggest that you take some time to sit in your higher self and ruminate upon the things that are going well in your life and those that you would like to change. What might you do to perpetuate the positive energy that you feel from the things that you are creating that serve a higher purpose? What can you learn from these that will assist you in altering the outcome of those that do not seem to be going as well? If these are patterns of experience, what are the common patterns that help create the positive experiences? Is there a common theme such as compassion, connectedness, kindness or love that exemplifies the positive experiences? What about those that are not going so well? What can you borrow from the playbook of uplifting experiences that can help you redirect the events in your life in a more positive way?

Now undoubtedly the things that create conflict in your life are experienced in concert with others.  What lesson is calling to be mastered in this conflict? How is your attachment to a point of view or idea causing an impasse because neither is willing to see through the other’s eyes? If you pause a moment and suspend all judgment and try to see the situation as the other does, isn’t there a third path that honors the truth of each in more respectful ways? Just a suggestion…

Conflicts in the world frequently are the result of envisioning a situation through the blinders of limited vision. You only have to step into another’s shoes to see and feel the scope of the impasse due to differing perspectives.  If all are to come together as One, it will require us to dissolve the barriers to understanding. The more you are willing to find out about your partners in experience and find the common threads that bind you together, the more you will be able to find the common ground on which to walk together.

This all begins with suspending judgment long enough to see the face of God in your counterpart. If he/she also is God expressing in form, what is this mirroring to you to be revealed? If we are to move beyond the confines of our egoic perceptions, we will be able to see the light of common experience peeking out from under the obstacles/excuses we have placed in the way. There is a common thread that binds us all together. It is to be discovered when we accept our own divine abilities that allow us to see others as God does and to nurture those divine traits in ourselves and those we have chosen to share this journey with.  Be willing to move past these impasses in your life and find the higher path that you can walk together on the journey Home.  Come Home…

Starry Starry Night


Starry Starry Night

 

In the course of human events there are many shining examples that stand out as lights that are as stars in the background of a sky of mediocrity. Those that seem to shine brightest are when we interact with another on a deep soul level and there is a deep inner Knowing that we are indeed One. What if your whole life were sprinkled with such moments to the extent that this was all you could see? To create this reality, you must be able to give up that which calls you to the desires of the ego and be willing to risk all in search of this higher form of Love.

 

What would you be willing to risk to live a life filled with ecstatic pleasure, not just in the physical sense, but things that turn on and enliven all of the moments of your life in Joy and wonder? Since this requires an attitude of creativity as well as receptivity, what is preventing you from doing this?

 

Perhaps you do not feel that you deserve to be happy beyond measure –you get your wish! Perhaps you feel that joy is frivolous - guess what, no Joy. Perhaps you cannot see beyond the illusions of the present to even imagine a world without strife and pain. Guess what you will create. To be able to create a different future, you must be able to discard these images of past “failures” and envision a different play unfolding in your life.

 

Given a blank slate, what would you put on it that would give you true joy? Would it be more “things”? Would it be wealth? How about romance? Travel? Physical beauty? Given your experiences, what of these made you truly happy and has planted seeds for even greater experiences in the future?

 

What about power? What has made you feel truly powerful? Was this at the expense of others? How did that make you feel in the long run? Was it joyful? Is power over yourself or others a good thing or does it leave you feeling empty and betrayed? How might this cachet called power be redirected to serve yourself and others in a more meaningful way.” What do you do that makes you feel powerful in a positive way and how can you use this dynamic energy to elevate yourself and others in positive ways?

 

What about nurturance? On a feeling scale, is it more Joyful to nurture or be nurtured?  What can you do to bring more of this nurturing, caring energy into your life? Is caring and compassion a big part of your life and your daily practice or are you bound by perceived constraints that make this seem difficult? Perhaps it is time to sever these ties that bind you and prevent your giving and receiving the fullest expression of God’s Love in and through others.

 

The illusions of life are a cloud that prevents our seeing things around us in their natural state as God does. Suspend your judgment and expectations and you will enter a world where beauty is in the eye of the beholder and if you assume your God-vision-goggles, all will be revealed in the perfection of this divine vision.  Allow yourself to live amongst this image more and more each day until this becomes your reality.  The only things preventing us from ascending into our godhood are our limiting thoughts and beliefs. You are more than you can ever imagine and this divine image is being withheld because you are reluctant to open your inner awareness in order to embody the magnificence you are. What will it take to inspire you to get up and accept this mantle of divinity? God only knows…

Choosing Life

If you are in tune with the higher realms you have a direct connection to the up-to-the-minute news of what is happening in and through you.  We say that not as an “advertisement” of the higher frequency band but just as an acknowledgement of how important it is to connect with your own higher wisdom throughout the day.  Each of you has within you an inner Knowing of that which vibrates of Love and that which is merely useless chatter in the world of form.  What is meaningful discussion and what fails to measure up?

As part of the discernment process, we would suggest that you begin to evaluate that which is real and true and that which is not. While all are created in God’s image and therefore contain the God-spark of creation there is also the aspect of Free Will. Many do not choose to expand on their divine qualities and instead opt for the “easy way out” in resonating with the desires of the ego. It is all about choices that may prolong the ascension process if they are not willing to listen to the still, small voice within that Knows the path of Love.

Now none of this is new but we merely wish to remind you that you do have a choice as to how you perceive your life. Two may have the same experiences but perceive them differently and choose to react to them differently. Is something a “disaster” because it fails to live up to expectations or an opportunity for growth and understanding because it causes one to move out of the illusion and into higher awareness? It is all perception and we invite you to look beyond the obvious and search for the deeper meaning when dealing with life’s challenges and opportunities.

Now we say opportunities, for anything that takes us beyond the status quo is indeed an opportunity for growth and understanding. Stagnation results when one is content to remain motionless in the stream of life. Though it is frequently a necessity for stopping, reflecting and going within to access a clearer answer, this is never meant to be a permanent way of being. It is meant only as a steering mechanism in the course of life. Once stability is attained it is time to venture out once again on the homeward journey.

So presuming that you are in a state of clarity and preparation, where do you wish to guide your vehicle on the road of life?  What attracts you because you can see clearly opportunities for higher understanding and growth? What is merely tempting because it fulfills desires of the ego without compensating spiritual insights? Can you have both or are they mutually exclusive? Spiritual growth is meant to be joyful. When you can find true Joy, which is a clear indication of divine purpose, you  know you are on a higher spiritual path because it fills in this piece of the divine mosaic.

Remember that true Joy is never at the expense of others. It frequently results when two or more are connected in higher purpose. There is never a “downside” for there is an exhilaration when all “win” together. What situations in your life bring all together in higher purpose and feel Joyful in the execution? If this is the yardstick by which you would measure your life, what would measure up and what would fall short? Perhaps this is something to look at in evaluating what stay with and nurture and what to cut yourself free from so that you can move on.

 The road ahead is narrowing as we get closer to the destination. All are being encouraged to stop and consider the steps you consciously take each day lest they be unsure and cause you to trip and falter. The clearer you are in Knowing where you are headed and what you are willing and unwilling to do in order to get there, the easier will be the process. When the destination becomes the focus, all else will be drawn to you that fulfills that intention. Being unsure of your intent or desires merely allows things that do not support your murky intention to slip in unaware and cloud the path. Where are you going and what are you willing to do to get there? The choice is yours to make…Carry on…

Real Time

The time in which you live is morphing from a linear structure into a cosmic measurement which better reflects your place in the time/space continuum. It may feel as if time has speeded up and been compressed as you try to fit everything into a smaller box. What is calling for is for you to step back and assess what is important for your spiritual evolution and what are merely time fillers with no intrinsic value in the larger scheme of things. Certainly there are many things in your life that serve no real value and are wasteful of your most valuable asset which is time.

In evaluating what to keep and what to discard we might suggest that you look closer at the things that feed your soul and assist in your spiritual growth. How much time do you spend enhancing your higher understanding of your soul purpose and feeding and nurturing this process?  What importance do you place on this in the overall scheme of things in your life?

How much time do you spend in activities that merely maintain the status quo and fill time in which no real growth is taking place? Do you continue to feed and nourish the creative part of yourself and those around you or is it the same old patterns repeating over and over? Are you taking time to nourish and honor yourself and to delve deeper into your inner process in order to make the necessary course corrections? Time to come to grips with what is important and what is not in the overall scheme of things.

This goes for people as well. Who in your life energizes and contributes to your life in meaningful ways? Who is an energetic drain with no meaningful contribution to your life or theirs? Are you enabling them to continue their destructive or meaningless practices by your continued reinforcement or do you actually see growth taking place? It is time to look closely at the time we spend on all of the activities in our lives and the cost/benefit from each.

Given that time is an illusion, are there areas of your life that seem stuck in the past or playing out in future time? What can you do or shift in your understanding that would allow you to live only in the present moment? If the only time that matters is now, what do you have in your tool box of experience that is relevant to this moment that will allow you to make more loving, conscious choices? Do you see how worrying about all of the “what ifs” in life reduces the time and energy you have to devote to what really matters which is now? Begin to live in smaller chunks of time without regret, projections, or expectations and you will soon be able to master the momentary consciousness that transcends time and space.

If you could choose a moment in time to be at this very instant, how old would you be? What would you be doing? How would that feel? Try putting yourself in that moment, in that mindset and seeing how that feels given your current commitment and conscious understanding. Try behaving “as if” just for a moment, and another, and another… How does this change your perspective of life and how you have grown beyond those past experiences and no longer need to repeat them? Do you understand why these are no longer appropriate given the current you?

Now, projecting yourself into future time, how will the current you be able to use your new understanding to transcend past lessons and create a higher reality free from the ego-traps you have experienced in the past?  Good Job!

There are many cosmic forces that your solar system is experiencing that are altering the parameters of time and space. Be open to the blurring of lines of time and allow your experiences to flow freely between the lines even though they may seem disorienting at times. The only thing that is stationary is now so learn to be the best reflection of your divine self in this moment and time will flow freely in and through you in perfection. It is time…
