Just in case you didn't watch the video - here's the scoop.

Hi, my name is Pam and the creator of ROC Metaphysical. What is ROC Metaphysical? It’s a metaphysical online magazine. Usually the first question is how did you get that name for the magazine. Since I live in Rochester, NY home of the FOX Sisters who made spiritualism popular, I thought about the name. Many businesses here use the letters R-O-C and the same for the airport. Using only three letters as part of the magazine name just seemed right.

The magazine has alternative health, spiritual and metaphysical articles, videos, event listings, advertising and an alternative directory. The first of each month the new edition is uploaded. Prior issues can be found at www.issuu.com.

I have been a seeker of knowledge about metaphysical information for as long as I can remember. I have a metaphysical meetup which helped me connect with teachers and speakers about all kinds of topics. Because of running the meetup and knowing that my presenters also wanted to reach out farther, it seemed like the next logical step was to share the information on a much wider scale.

Every month the magazine is new because of the writers and their articles. The writers somehow magically find me and voluntarily share their articles. It’s so exciting to see what comes to my email.

Some of the info may click with you and some may not. In my opinion it’s always good to question your understanding. But we’re all in a different place in our knowledge and desire to learn.

I’m a studious soul, always reading books on all kinds of topics, checking out websites and you tube to find that right info plus I have attended loads of classes. I thought hmmm - what if I took all that and put it into a magazine to help you have a place where you can go without having to search high and low like I had to.

Here is the result - ROC Metaphysical. I hope you find the magazine wonderful, interesting and thought provoking. Our Mission is to Enlighten and Inform is our tag line.

"Tarot Tendencies for January" By Doreen Scanlan

Light Seers Tarot

The time is now to access obstacles that have been holding you back.

These obstacles could be based in fear, justified or not. Take some time to examine the power you are giving those challenges and which ones you are willing to take on and to what degree. Step up to the easiest of them first to help build some confidence. Know that you don’t have to go through any of this alone. If you don’t have a friend or loved one to assist you, don’t be afraid to reach out to a professional.

Finding someone you trust to be honest with you and not just tell you Page | 16

what you want to hear is key.

Move in the direction of career first instead of taking on personal issues. Take a look at your career goals. What do you want to accomplish in 2022? Where do you see yourself by 2025 and 2035?

Set new goals to get yourself there.

This is a year of movement for you. Be ready to roll. Most if not all of us should be stepping into our abundance this year starting this month. Look for new opportunities, passions and desires. Don’t overburden yourself with worries. Turn them into helpful concerns that you are moving through instead of walls that are holding you back.

Happy New Year!

About Doreen Scanlan: I am pleased to have been asked to join the ROC Metaphysical Family. I have been doing Tarot readings for over 20 years both through local shops and festivals and on my own. The past 2 years I have been invited to the Gypsy Camp at the Sterling Renaissance Festival. I have a very eclectic spiritual background that I draw upon to guide and inspire.

Tarot is my tool of choice to help me focus on messages that hopefully uplift. My Spirit Guides stand by me to bring only the highest and best messages. For the purposes of this magazine, I have been asked to provide a general monthly forecast to help everyone understand the tone of the month. If you are interested in a personal, more in depth reading please email me dscanlanjoyner@yahoo.com and we can schedule one. ________

"Breath Is Life" By Katrin Naumann

What is life? Simply defined, we might say life is movement. It is the Vital Life Force pulsating through us, the vibration of the Universe stirring creation into being. In the Yogic tradition, this Life Force is referred to as prana; for the Chinese, it is called chi or qi, and the Japanese name it ki. Prana, in Sanskrit, also translates to breath. The Greek word for breath is pneuma, which also means “soul” or “spirit,” and it is referred to as spiritus in Latin.

I had occasion to be peddling away on a bike at the gym, while reading an old interview with the actor Bradley Cooper, in a copy of Details Magazine. In the piece, he was discussing how his father’s death had impacted him, responding to the question, had it made him more religious. I was struck by his answer. After paying homage to his father for planting the seeds of faith in him through his Catholic upbringing, he concluded by saying, “Am I a spiritual person today? Yes. I don't know how I could not be. It's Page | 18

like saying, "Do you breathe?"

We are all spiritual. Whether or not we know it or believe it. And it is because we breathe that we are spiritual beings. The breath that fills our lungs, that nourishes our bodies is the breath of the Cosmos. You might say our inhalation is God’s exhalation.

Through the breath we comingle with the Divine. Breath is sound vibration, the music or underlying soundtrack that accompanies the dance of life.

I’ll repeat Cooper’s question, “Do you breathe?” “Well, of course I breathe,” you would say. But really… do you breathe? Do you breathe? What is it that breathes? Do you consciously say to yourself, “I am inhaling; now, I am exhaling.” That would be ridiculous and debilitating. Fortunately, breathing, along with all the other functions of the body, is governed by the subconscious mind, one aspect of the Higher Self or Super-Conscious Mind, which is aligned with the autonomic nervous system. If we consciously had to think about breathing, we would not be able to do anything else. More importantly, if breathing were ruled by the conscious mind, when we went to sleep or lost consciousness, we would stop breathing and die in mere moments.

In essence, the breath breathes us; the Universe or the Divine is breathing us. This Divine Life Force animates, supports, and sustains us. We are, or rather this body is, simply a vessel, a container, the vital energy may flow through, for the purpose of experience in the material plane.

Now, this vessel must be in a condition suitable to house the Life Force or prana. When there is contraction or constriction in the body, emotions or mind, the Life Force becomes obstructed.

When this occurs chronically, the body moves into a state of imbalance, or disrepair. Should this continue unresolved, the Life Force can no longer be properly supported and will, eventually, leave. Once gone, it is not long before the body begins to decay. We refer to this process as death.

Page | 19

There is a Vedic story about prana found in the Upanishads. The five main faculties of our physical nature - mind, breath, speech, the ear and the eye - were all arguing over which was the best and most important. (This illustrates how these faculties, when not well integrated, compete for dominance of our attention.) To resolve their conflict, it was decided that each would leave the body and then it would be determined whose absence was most critical to the wellbeing of the whole.

First speech left, and the body continued to function, though mute. Then the eye left, and the body continued on blind. The ear left next, and the body kept on, though deaf. Subsequently, mind left, and the body carried on in unconsciousness. Finally, prana began to depart, and the body quickly began to die, so all the other faculties started to lose their energy. Immediately, they all rushed to prana and begged it to stay, hailing it as supreme among them. Prana/Life Force provides the energy for all our physical, emotional, and mental faculties, without which they could not function. If we do not honor prana first, there is no energy with which to do anything else. Thus, Breath is Life.

Contrary to what many believe, it is not the lungs that breathe, but rather the cells. Every cell of the body breathes. Every cell requires food to function optimally. Oxygen is the primary food that nourishes every cell. Each cell cries out for oxygen. Like the monstrous plant, Audrey ii, from the musical Little Shop of Horrors, they say, “Feed me! Feed me!”

Our ability to breathe is affected by the functionality and effort of every cell in the body. Generally, we only allow a fraction of the cells in the body the oxygen they require; most are sorely neglected. For cells to function properly, they must be able to access their food, the oxygen, from the breath.

If the cells are not working, they are not hungry, and therefore do not draw in the requisite food or oxygen necessary for their vital function. If the cells do not eat or take in oxygen and then release their waste, such as carbon dioxide, they die. When the Page | 20

cells die, we die.

If we do not work, we are not hungry. Consider what happens when someone is depressed. They are likely, before long, to become lethargic, and very soon may follow a loss of appetite. If our cells are inactive, they too lose their appetite.

How do we encourage the cells to eat? We must encourage their appetite for oxygen, which means we must get them moving.

Certainly, exercise is one primary way to get all the cells in the body moving - that is, functioning to their full capacity - firing on all pistons, you might say.

All the body’s cells engage in cellular respiration. They use oxygen and glucose, a sugar found in many foods we eat, and convert them to ATP (adenosine triphosphate), or cellular energy, and carbon dioxide. ATP transports chemical energy within cells to support the metabolic function. This is how a cell eats and then excretes its waste. If that is not happening in a balanced way, the cell becomes poisoned and dies. Imagine what would happen if we ate but were unable to properly eliminate the waste. Our body would toxify, and we would become very ill and ultimately expire.

The cells receive their nutrients through a continuous interplay between the blood and lymph, which is a salty liquid that bathes the cells. The lymph carries toxins and waste away from the cells and transports infection fighting white blood cells through the body. In addition to the rhythmic contraction of the lymph cells, the abdominal muscles serve as a pump that helps move the lymph and blood into and out of the chest cavity to other parts of the body.

Cells are microscopic, tiny little living beings. We must feed them oxygen in increments they can handle. If we were to eat without chewing our food, we would choke, and if we were able to get the huge pieces down, the body would not be able to effectively Page | 21

absorb all the vital nutrients contained in the food.

Similarly, if we were to drive a car, alternately flooring the accelerator and then jamming on the breaks, not only would we become really car-sick, but pretty soon the car would revolt and stop functioning.

This, in essence, is what occurs with our breathing when we are consumed by our emotions, stuck in a pattern of what might be called “negative” emotions, such as hate, anger, fear, anxiety, depression, or grief, to name a few. When in these states we are caught in a pattern of choking or interrupted breathing.

Remember that poor car from a moment ago.

When we stop and start the breath in an arrhythmic pattern, we can vacillate between high and low blood pressure. Sometimes we hold the breath and the carbon dioxide too long in the body, causing an overly acidic environment, creating inflammation, which leads to dis-ease. And very often, the body is too tired to work, incapable of taking in the required oxygen. Regardless, one or all these scenarios will eventually kill us. So, in order for our body to remain in optimal working order, we must move the body regularly, encouraging the cells to work, and we must breathe mindfully, slowly and rhythmically, so the cells can readily absorb the oxygen that nourishes them.

An article in Time Magazine written by Clare Grodon posits, “when choir members sing together, it’s not just their voices that join in harmony.”

According to a study published in the journal Frontiers of Neuroscience, when choir members sing together, their heart rates tend to synchronize and beat as one. A team of Swedish researchers discovered this synchronicity induces a sense of calm, consistent with the effects of the practice of yoga.

This is how it works: A long nerve called the vagus nerve — Latin for “wandering” — trails down from the brain stem into the body, Page | 22

where it enervates the heart along with other visceral organs.

Exhaling activates the vagus nerve, which slows the heart’s pulse.

So, if a group’s breathing is in sync, then it makes sense that the beating of their hearts will be too.

According to the study, the unified heart rate isn’t just a nice warm fuzzy — it has real, emotional effects. The vagus nerve conveys sensory information about the state of the body’s organs to the central nervous system. So, this primary nerve that affects the heart plays a major role in a person’s sense of arousal or calmness.

The more slowly and rhythmically we breathe, the more easily it is for the cells to take in oxygen, so they can function maximally.

The slower the heart rate, the easier it is to initiate the relaxation response, the opposite of the fight, flight or freeze reaction. It is a “physical state of deep rest that changes the physical and emotional responses to stress.”

In the Yogic Tradition, we have a practice known as pranayama.

Prana, as previously stated, is the Vital Energy in the body. It is also the breath or the vehicle via which the Life Force circulates through the body. Yama means to control or to direct, in this case. Through many of these breath practices, we can initiate the relaxation response, which raises our quality of life immensely.

About Katrin Naumann: A powerful alchemical transformation of self-healing began within Katrin, during Yoga Teacher Training. She also benefited from more traditional talk therapy, during which she addressed the deeply seated grief and shame she had never acknowledged or processed after her friend’s death. These experiences propelled her to study the Western Mystery Teachings, Hermetics, Astrology & Tarot, at The School of the New Light, with Master Metaphysican David Harry Davis, former owner of Seven Rays Bookstore, with whom she coauthored Ten Gates into the Garden: Spiritual Teachings for the Awakening Consciousness. She met her beloved guru, Her Holiness, Sai Maa Lakshmi Devi Mishra in 2012. Through many Page | 23

Transformational Healing Journeys, in the grace of Sai Maa, she honed her gifts as a holistic healer.

Katrin subsequently became a certified Qi Gong Therapist through the Qi Gong Institute of Rochester, with Master Lisa B. O’Shea, and she also studied Vibrational Healing with Elizabeth Wright of SpiritWorks. In alignment with your soul's highest good, allow Katrin to create a dynamic program, uniquely suited to you, which assists in transmuting & transcending self-imposed limitations that have impeded your ability to thrive and manifest the vibrant life you desire.

"Upward Spiral" By Gloria DePietro

Reincarnation is a subject that has been discussed since the beginning of recorded history. In my new book entitled A Soul’s Journey, I go into extensive research regarding how the karmic schema plays out in the reincarnation system. In charting the myriad of lifetimes I experienced, I was able to analyze how the different lifetimes complemented or opposed each other.

Lessons learned in one lifetime are applied to another and so on.

No experience is realized in a vacuum, each lifetime is like part of a bead in a string of pearls, lining up to create a magnificent necklace. Each life is a lesson learned that influences every other life in an attempt to bring each of us back to a state of wholeness.

Page | 25

We live in a three-dimensional reality of cause and effect. Every thought, word, and action we have or take has a consequence.

Yes, we have free will, mainly because we determine the choices we make, no one else. You could say that other people can influence our decisions but ultimately, we create the outcome.

Pointing the finger at your mother or father, saying you beat your child because they beat you, maybe true, but on the highest evolutionary reality, those events happened so you could correct a wrong and learn from it.

When we die, we experience a life review, I know this because I have had three near-death experiences. In this review, there is no blame, no pointing fingers. There is no judge or jury, its only you.

You are shown these experiences so you can see the choices you made. This will determine whether you have learned your lesson and can move on. We are at an important juncture in our evolutionary process, not just individually, but the planet itself is also going through a shift from a third- density to a fourthdensity reality, as evidenced by this global pandemic. We are all in this together. In the fourth density, there is no hate, no fear, no war, or disease. You cannot enter a fourth-density plane with lower-density emotions or thoughts. Therefore, it is incredibly important to learn these lessons of the karmic transmigration so we can all move on to a higher dimension. Let us look at my previous example of the mistreated child. The reason why you were beaten as a child may surprise you. In a life review you may find that you beat someone in a previous life and now must experience how that felt to learn the experience from both sides.

This is karma.

I prove this premise in my book, presenting charts that show how one lifetime balances out another. For example, if I lied in one lifetime, I was lied to in another. The brilliance of this system is that no one ever dies, and energy cannot be destroyed: it merely transforms from one form to another. The body is but a temporal respite for the soul. Everything you experience is recorded in the etheric field of the soul. When you drop one body, you then pick up another, but your soul moves into its new environment with Page | 26

all the knowledge that has gone on before.

I often use a physical imprint as a way to enter into a past life story. If a client comes to me with a fear of drowning, there is a good chance there is a story there. I will explore the sensations that accompany that fear to access the past life memory. Once the memory comes up, it is easy to process the information so the client can release the hold it has on the body, emotions, and psyche. The only reason we reincarnate is to resolve issues from the past. This lifetime is a gift, and the ultimate goal is to learn how to love each other. When you begin to understand that we have all been rich and poor, male and female, and every creed and nationality, that we’ve fought wars, won and lost, and that we have experienced living and dying, then what’s left? Only forgiveness, understanding, and compassion.

I end this article with an excerpt from my book A Soul’s Journey.

It is the story of a slave boy who stole from his master. -“Please don’t shut me out!” I begged. “I have learned that the truth is the only thing that can truly set me free, and I want to prove to you that I can be trustworthy. I have been chained so long by my own deceit that I have been ashamed to ask you for forgiveness. I was blinded by my own longings and wants and lied for my own benefit. I would rather have your forgiveness than anything else in the world, more than money or freedom, if you could find it in your heart to accept me. I will work extremely hard to fight for the truth in all things and never lower myself again to tell an easy lie for personal gain. I will stand my ground and tell the truth if you will release me from this bondage.” The master said, “I did curse you, but I have not kept you in bondage; rather, your own guilt has kept you there. If you can forgive yourself for what you have done, you will regain your dignity and be able to stand up for what is righteous. I will not oppose you.

You have learned a valuable lesson.” The angels came to cleanse the boy of his guilt and help restore his dignity. I asked the master, “Who are you?” “I am your conscience,” the master Page | 27

replied.

About Gloria De Pietro: As far back as G. C. De Pietro can recall creativity has been her healer, born prematurely and later diagnosed with a life-threatening childhood disease she spent much of her early youth in hospitals. After surviving several near death experiences she knew she would commit her life helping others.

As an art therapist De Pietro realized there were too many innocent children who had devastating stories to tell and had witnessed horrific events in their young lives. Thus, she wrote a book about her involvement with these children called Abandoned which is available on Amazon. It tells the story of boys forgotten and how the art therapy process helped them heal.

Looking for answers as to why this sort of thing had to happen, she began to investigate karmic patterns. After studying with Jungian analyst Dr. Roger Woolger, PH. D, Ms. De Pietro became a certified Past Life Regression Specialist. She now combines Art Therapy with Past Life Regression Therapy to make a unique contribution to the transpersonal psycho-therapeutic community. She has a new book called A Soul’s Journey available on Amazon. It is the story of traveling through time in order to find the truth.

"Portal" By Monique Lang

This time of year has been marked for Ceremony for millennia.

Ancient people of all traditions all over the world have celebrated this time of year as the portal of coming into the light, into the new. The practices vary, but most center around moving into the new, into the light that follows the darkness.

How do you mark this time?

Reflect on what portal you want to move through to manifest what is for your and all beings highest good for the new year.

Wishing you Peace, Love and Joy and above all kindness towards yourself and all beings.

About Monique: Originally trained in psychoanalysis and Gestalt, I am certified in Internal Family Systems, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Comprehensive Resource Model and Past Life Regression. I am certified in both Reiki and Shamanic practices and ceremonies. In addition I have been a student of Meditation for over 20 years.

Although I recently moved from New York City to Syracuse (upstate NY), I was born in France, grew up in Central America and have lived in many different states and countries. Although moving around was difficult at the time, it allowed me to Page | 29

experience different cultures, ethnic backgrounds and spiritual orientations. This understanding is helpful in my work with my clients as it enables me to understand and put into context each person’s particular background and way of viewing the world.

Prior to becoming a psychotherapist I was an editor and a security analyst for a financial institution, a translator, an office manager for a community action group and program director in a community center where I developed several programs. These varied experiences have given me a wider lens to understand and connect with my clients.

In addition to providing psychotherapy to individuals and couples, I co- leading trips to South America to connect with and learn from Indigenous healers and wise elders, run a variety of workshops, teach clinicians how to use a multi-modal approach in their practices and help individuals and organizations in program visioning and development.

Poetry By Carolyn Chilton Casas

Page | 31

Whatever Name You Give It after You Are the Placebo by Joe Dispenza Our intelligent universe, whatever name you give it, loves us into being, surrounds us and is within us— omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent.

Because of it, our heart beats 101,000 times a day.

Two gallons of blood pumps though our bodies per minute, traveling 60,000 miles within a twenty-four-hour time span.

Our 70 trillion cells perform more than 100,000 functions per second. We mindlessly breathe two million liters of oxygen daily, distributed to each cell in an instant.

This invisible field exists beyond time and space.

The same super power that creates galaxies and orchestrates the rising and falling of tides offers the miracle of a vessel that carries on for decades, embraced wherever we are on this Earth where we stand. ~ Carolyn Chilton Casas

Page | 32

Beauty The ache that truly registering acute beauty triggers— a melting of the insides, an ecstatic awe not unlike a breakthrough after years of sitting in meditation.

Almost the new year and although times remain rough, still the mulberries let gold-painted handprints release on our emerald Earth.

Two deer touch noses in an interlude between chomping leaves, their tails flicker in lip-smacking pleasure.

And after days of near-constant rain, sun shines down on packed sand, as a never-taken-for-granted fishnet of glimmering sapphires once again beckons from beyond the breakers. ~ Carolyn Chilton Casas

Poetry By Dean Fraser

The Time Is Precisely Now Think about what you ate yesterday for lunch.

Really focus on it with all the power of your mind.

See it.

Feel it.

Strongly imagine you can taste that meal.

The flavours stimulating your taste buds.

The aroma filling your senses.

Next bring to mind a favourite childhood meal.

Something you looked forward to every single time you knew it was on today’s menu.

Picture it in your mind’s eye.

Strongly bring into your consciousness the sensation of eating this favourite food.

Enjoy the taste.

Make real those memories within your mind.

The feelings associated with eating the meal once again.

Did one of those reminiscences feel any stronger than the other?

There are no right or wrong answers to that question, by the way…

Page | 34

Those two moments in your life, separated as they probably are by a few years, were both able to be recalled and made real to you once again for a few moments.

Almost as if you were right there…

The time is precisely now!

The most wonderful way to experience all the magic.

The magnificence that is called life, is to live in the now.

For the moment, it is the only reality…

The time is precisely now. ~ By Dean Fraser

Endless Possibilities Confidence comes from inner knowing and can often be mistaken for ego.

Ego dissolves through lessons in humility.

Humility is recognizing that everyone is born equal.

Equality is sending love to all regardless of their actions.

Action is to consciously change firstly ourselves; and then the World.

Worldly is to completely know oneself.

One. To be at one with oneself.

We are all here to grow… ~ By Dean Fraser About Dean: Poetry entered my life in a more significant way around ten years ago. Initially as part of a collective known as The 4 Poets. Quickly finding this format restricting I had my Beatles moment and left to go solo. I never looked back! My poetry has been called life affirming, and for sure I certainly Page | 35

write from the heart. I also enjoy writing observational travel poetry, telling of those places I have visited over the years which have captured my imagination and the stories of real people, some I met and others from the past who never got to have their story told, now brought to life once more through the power of words.

"Money, Me and You" By Melissa L. Watkins

Yup, money is on all our minds lately. Some of us are working from home. Some of us do not have that option. And, some of us are recreating ourselves and how we make our money. It is the necessary evil. But, it does not need to be hated. Money is a tool.

It is used in exchange for goods and services. It does not define who we are. It does not make us who we are.

When you have it, you feel safe and secure. You are able to make decisions about time and attention because you have the means to exchange currency for what you want.

When you don’t have it, you feel inferior to those that do. Your self-worth and confidence get shaken because you feel like you cannot have or do because you don’t have the necessary currency to exchange.

We can allow the desire to have ‘enough’ create a sense or urgency to gain the money to put in the bank account to create the feeling of safety and stability that allows us to sleep better at night. Give. Have. And, be seen as successful or accomplished because we have what others perceive as the goal: a large amount of currency. What is ‘enough?’

Page | 37

Two things I have learned about money. Money is energy. Lack Mentality will keep you feeling unsafe and unstable no matter how much you have.

Lack Mentality is the idea that you never have enough. People with this idea that has been ingrained in them will always strive for more no matter how much they have. Working, working and working. Spending, spending and spending. Creating this feeling of being on the hamster wheel of ‘never enough’ money, things, experiences, situations, people, etc.

Money is energy. What you put out is what you get back. Not attaching to what you have or what you spend. Being conscious of taking care of your needs and appreciating that you can. Having the basics covered. Not worrying about what you don’t have covered or will need to cover. Doing in the moment what you can and leaving the rest for the day that you can affect that need.

The two lessons: live in the Now and stay in Gratitude.

Embrace these to principles and you will change your relationship with money. And, you will affect how much money you have in the process. The by product is that by changing your view of money, you will draw more money, opportunities and beneficial people to you that will allow you to have all the money you need and more.

"The Successful Road to Spiritual Wellness" By Colleen Irwin

Have you made several, unsuccessful efforts to achieve spiritual wellness? You can probably relate to how difficult it can be to achieve. Spiritual wellness takes effort and introspection.

There’s indeed a road you can take that leads to spiritual wellness. The journey may be long, rough, and trying, but it's achievable.

Review this helpful guide for building a foundation of spiritual wellness. While you may want to adopt one element at a time, you'll be better off attempting a full transformation. It's not as uplifting when you try to achieve spiritual wellness from one angle. Many conflicts may arise, which could land you right back at square one.

Try the following all-inclusive approach to building spiritual wellness: 1. Spend time alone for meditation. Meditation is the perfect medium for connecting to your inner self. It is important to maintain that connection so you remain in tune with your spiritual beliefs. It's also a great way to help focus on the present.

• Spending too much time focusing on what happened in the past can affect inner peace. Painful occurrences or disappointments Page | 40

can be discouraging. Train yourself to look at what's right in front of you.

• Focusing on the present also keeps you from worrying about the future. Uncertainty looms every day, everywhere. But dwelling on the "what ifs" could result in you missing out on great opportunities in front of you.

2. Make value-guided decisions. Living a life in tune with your values is the best way to be true to yourself. In turn, this trueness allows your spiritual life to flourish. Having spiritual wellness also means you can make yourself available to help others.

• What do you value? Is it honesty and truth? Is it charity?

• Whatever values are responsible for your spiritual composition should always be consulted. Make your decisions based on what you know sits well with your spirit.

3. Connect with the meaning of situations. Everything happens for a reason! As cliché as it sounds, it's the most accurate explanation for life. What you do with the information presented is another matter.

• You may not like a situation or even understand it. But instead of reacting, take the time to connect with the deeper meaning.

• It's important to understand that not everything is built in your favor. Occupying a world with 7 billion other people should allow you to recognize that balance is for all. When you acknowledge that, you can come to terms with situations more easily.

4. Be accepting of the viewpoints of others. The inhabitants of the world are as they are meant to be. In order to achieve true spiritual wellness, it’s important to be willing to accept that. This is especially true when it comes to the views of others.

• Practicing tolerance allows you to open you mind to a myriad of possibilities. It forces you to consider the true meaning of life.

• Instead of forcing your beliefs on others, focus on gaining a deeper understanding. You may be surprised by what you find!

The road to spiritual wellness is long and complicated, but quite fulfilling! There is a deeper level of peace and understanding to Page | 41

be gained when you travel that road. Experience the journey and see what it feels like to truly accept yourself.

Stay connected with who you are on the inside. Allow that connection to dictate your thoughts, words, and actions. With that approach, you are sure to gain the joyful peace of spiritual wellness.

"My Guides Irritate Me..." By Stacey Duffy

I have been caught in somewhat of an existential crisis. Why am I doing all of this? Why do I write this blog? Because it makes my heart smile. Yes! It really does. 💚 Still, I keep wondering, ''where am I headed?''

I have a full time job, that I love, I write this blog and I manage all the social media for Road to Spirit. (I am slowly discovering that social media could actually be a full time job on its own). I'm not harbouring any delusions of grandeur. I am not looking to recruit millions of followers and become an 'influencer'. I've said it before and I'll say it again.... one is enough. One person who laughs on a bad day, one person who says ''yesss'' after reading a post, or one person who is moved to think about something differently. Just one. That being said, everything I put out carries my name, my brand, a piece of me. For that reason, I care about it.

I've thought about this ad nauseam. Where am I going? This question is a maze and I am regularly frustrated by it. When I ask my guides for clarity I met with another question: ''Why do you need to know?'' Oh for God's sake! Have they met me?!!!! I find this infuriating -I'm sure they pissed themselves at my irritationFeeling as though I had gained no ground in this area, I decided Page | 44

to move on. Yes, it was a total 'brat response' to receiving an answer I didn't like, but it made me feel better in that moment.

Days passed and true to form, the more I tried not think about it, the more I did. I recalled something I'd read in Joe Dispenza's book Becoming Supernatural. He speaks a lot about manifesting.

He gives a detailed 'recipe' on putting your desires into the universe and then living your life in a way that attracts them to you. I have done it, many times. Still do. The part that has me so captivated now is the waiting, waiting for the universe to bring what you have created. I am not new to relinquishing my hopes and dreams to a force beyond my control.

And yet, here I am trying control a future that I cannot foresee.

What I can see is that it all comes down to detachment really. I am so happy at the moment. Writing this gives me joy. Putting poetry and memes out on social media makes me happy. IS THAT NOT ENOUGH? In response I have decided to be present and bask in the happiness. I detach from the outcomes -what ever they may beand choose to enjoy the process. To quote George Michael, ''you gotta have faith.'' It is with tremendous annoyance that I concede...I don't need to know. FML - It killed me to type that...🙄 Be present, detach, have faith, Live.👌🏼 About Stacey: A drone for the first 33 years of my life, I lived by checking the boxes. Finish school, go to varsity, get married have children… etc. I am not filled with regret but post spiritual awakening - I feel alive, I am a writer, and I craving experiences.

Writing for calm and clarity I find myself passionate about guiding the beginners. Spirituality is an ethereal rollercoaster and, in amongst the deluge of captivating information, I strive to be a relatable voice of encouragement and confirmations for the Page | 45

many who will undoubtedly question their sanity and resolve as their paths unfold.

zen habits by Leo Babauta Expanding Our Capacity to Be With Chaos We don’t like chaos.

It is uncertainty, overwhelm, a feeling of groundlessness, being unmoored, out to sea without a compass.

And it usually triggers a shut-down response in us: hide, avoid, procrastinate, try to get control, anxiety, or wanting to give up.

Or not wanting to even start in the first place, if we know there will be chaos.

I’m here to advocate for the beauty of chaos! It is the fabric of life, and we can never escape it. What we can do instead is slow down, get quiet, and open to the beauty of chaos.

This takes tremendous practice.

Let’s talk about it.

Chaos Can Be Overwhelming We like order, and when things are messy or chaotic, it can feel scary or overwhelming.

A few examples: I’m going off to college and am feeling overwhelmed by the idea of a roommate and there being so many people around. It feels like I won’t have my own space.

I worry about getting into a relationship when I’m just learning to take care of myself, and enjoying having alone time. I don’t want to get too entangled and then hurt the other person by

Page | 47

breaking it off later.

My spouse is unpredictable with their emotions, and I never know when they’re going to get frustrated or shut down.

My life is overly full right now, I feel scattered and all over the place and I can’t focus on anything!

I’m at an event with so many people, I am not used to people being around, how can I handle the overwhelm?

My health has taken a bad turn, and I feel helpless and lost.

These are just a few ways that chaos shows up for us. In fact, it’s always present, in small and big ways. The world is unpredictable, dynamic, swirling. And we often don’t want to be with all of that.

There is so much possibility if we let ourselves be with chaos.

Practicing Being with Chaos We can learn to be present with the chaos in a relaxed way.

It starts with recognizing when we’re feeling it.

Then we can decide whether we want to practice with it. Do we have the capacity to train ourselves in chaos right now? No judgment if we don’t — it’s a recognition of whether we have anything in our emotional and mental battery, and absolutely a wonderful thing to do for ourselves to opt out when we’re not up for it.

Then we can practice grounding ourselves. Start with a little stability before going into chaos.

Next … we can turn towards the chaos. This is like turning towards the storm: bring attention to the sensation of chaos in Page | 48

our bodies (internal) and the presentation of chaos all around us (external). It’s watching the wind blow the grass in unpredictable ways. Watching the ocean swirl. Watching people flowing past a window.

Opening our eyes to the beauty of the moment.

And learning to relax in the middle of the swirl.

Expanding Our Capacity We all have a limited capacity to be with chaos, fear, uncertainty, groundlessness.

When we hit that limit, we shut down. We go to our comforts or defenses. And that’s of course completely OK! We don’t need to force ourselves to stay open to chaos when we’re not in a place to do that.

That said, we can expand that capacity, through training.

The training goes something like this: Intentionally create a practice to train with chaos daily. It could be at the same time of day, or just have a note somewhere that will remind you to practice. That reminder will get less effective over time, so change it up weekly.

When it’s time to practice, notice the chaos you’re feeling. Or recall a time earlier in the day when you were feeling it.

Practice turning towards the feeling of chaos in your body, as mentioned in the section above.

Practice keeping your attention here, keeping your heart open, as long as you feel able to do so.

Close the session with some gratitude for yourself for practicing.

Page | 49

If you do this on a daily basis, your capacity will expand over time. You’ll be able to spontaneously practice when chaos arises in the moment. Sometimes.

Other times, you just won’t have it. That’s OK. We’re human.

The Beauty of Chaos What we begin to open to, as we sit in a quiet moment with this practice, is the swirling beauty of chaos.

We automatically turn away from it as if it’s an unwanted burden, but chaos is the fabric of life. It is the ocean splashing against the rocks, the light filtering through dust motes in the still air, the clouds of a storm. It’s the joyous play of a child, the trees swaying in the wind with leaves tremulously shaking.

Chaos is a loved one interrupting us when we’re trying to focus, asking for the gift of our attention. It’s a day full of activity and abundance. It’s a life never short of surprises. It’s loss and death and heartbreak and intimacy.

It’s my wish that the world opens to this chaotic beauty.

“Live quietly in the moment and see the beauty of all before you.

The future will take care of itself …” ~Paramahansa Yogananda About Leo: I am is a regular guy, a father of six kids, a husband, a writer from Guam (moved to San Francisco in 2010, now living in Davis, California). But I have accomplished a lot over the last couple of years (and failed a lot) and along the way, I have learned a lot.

"Singing Is Praying Twice" by Barry & Joyce Vissell

It makes me (Barry) sad when people tell me they can’t sing.

Sometimes I hear their reasons: “I’m tone-deaf!” or “As a child, I was told I couldn’t sing, and was instructed to just mouth the words!”

I often hear people’s fear of singing in public: “I’m afraid of making a fool of myself!” Perhaps this is true of all forms of artistic self-expression, like dancing or painting. It all involves some degree of risk of making a fool of ourselves.

We just finished leading two back-to-back retreats, our four-day beginning mentorship retreat, and then a three-day couples retreat, both in our home. We love to do what we call “circle dances.” This was inspired by Sufi Dancing when I was a psychiatry resident in Portland, OR in 1972. Now called “Dances of Universal Peace,” these weekly dances in the middle of the week were a spiritual haven for Joyce and me, especially for me, swallowed up in taking care of seriously ill mental patients. I Page | 52

realized the power of singing sacred phrases while progressing person to person in the circle. Our work is so much about opening the heart and, for me, singing to another person while making eye contact, is a great tool for opening to more love.

Anyway, I cherish each time I get to sing my love to each person and, just as much, receive their love through their voice. Each voice – I mean it – each voice is beautiful!! Each voice expresses the person’s love in a unique way!

And here’s the thing about singing: technique is overrated. The beauty of a singing voice comes not from the vocal cords, but from the heart. When your heart is in your singing, your voice is magnificent.

I am right in there with most of you. I was told I couldn’t sing when I was young and in school. And yes, this was traumatic to me. I was terrified of all forms of artistic self-expression.

Meeting Joyce at the age of eighteen in our first year of college, she naturally wanted to dance with me. I simply refused. Four years later, I even refused to dance at our wedding. And sing?

Forget it. It was not until my mid-twenties that I started opening my heart and, with that, finding out that I actually could dance – my own unique and initially awkward way – and sing.

Is my singing voice perfect? No way. Do I have a wide range? Not very. Am I always on key? No. But do I love to sing with all my heart? YES! And therefore, what people hear is my love, much more than my voice.

Many years ago, at a Hawaii retreat we were leading, there was a man named David who declared that he needed to take a big risk and sing in front of the group. I’ll never forget that moment, when he opened his mouth and nervously began to sing. It didn’t sound good at first, but he kept on. He bravely moved through his nervousness and self-consciousness and finally entered his zone of joy. We the listeners seemed to all smile at the same moment, when his heart opened and spilled out through his voice. I was aware that his actual voice had not changed that much, but the Page | 53

quality of heartfulness changed everything. It sounded wonderful. We were listening to his heart, not his technique.

The quote, “singing is praying twice” has been attributed to St. Augustine. And I wholeheartedly agree, especially if the words are uplifting and we sing from our hearts. Our words are the first prayer, and then the singing reinforces the prayer.

Covid has been a sad time for many, especially those who have lost a loved one to this illness. And for Joyce and me, our workshops and retreats seemed to evaporate one by one. We did a few online, video-conferencing retreats, which were mostly okay. I occasionally sang with my harmonium (a small pump organ from India), but it sounded terrible when people tried singing with me on Zoom.

I had extra time on my hands. So, sitting with my harmonium or at the piano, I ended up writing over thirty songs and chants. It was a burst of creativity. But I sorely missed singing with a group. I emailed a friend, Adora, who led the Dances of Universal Peace locally. She told me all forms of group singing were still on hold because of Covid. Then, this past October, Joyce and I travelled in our truck camper to Montana for a few weeks, a place we have never been. It was awesome! In Glacier National Park we saw in the wild our first grizzly bear, a truly impressive creature.

Yes, we were at a safe distance, standing next to a ranger.

On that trip, one evening in our camper, while snow gently fell outside, we talked about our desires and dreams. I shared with Joyce my desire to sing and chant in a group of live voices. Joyce said, “Let’s pray about it.” So we did. The very next morning, there was an email from Adora letting us know it was time. She said there was a new minister at the Center for Spiritual Living in Santa Cruz, and he wanted more singing and chanting at the center. And masks would only be required for the nonvaccinated. It was truly the answer to our prayer. Our first group singing, although small, was precious to Joyce and me.

Page | 54

In his song, “10,000 Reasons,” Matt Redman sings, The sun comes up.

It’s a new day dawning.

It’s time to sing my song again.

Whatever may pass and whatever lies before me.

Let me be singing when the evening comes.

I hope this article will inspire you to “pray twice” through singing, and discover how beautiful your voice is when your heart is behind it.

And if you live close enough to Santa Cruz, please join Joyce and me at our next spiritual singing/chanting group Monday, January 3, 6:30-8pm. Bring in the new year with an open heart.

"What Is Your Level of Empathy? By Dr. Judith Orloff

Empathy is when you care about others in both sadness and joy.

Empathy allows you to understand where another person is coming from even if you don’t agree with them. It bridges differences and opens communication with others. The world needs more empathic leaders, parents and people in every profession.

Just as intelligence can be measured with an IQ, your level of empathy can also be assessed with an Empathy Quotient (EQ).

Take the following quiz adapted from The Empath’s Survival Guide to determine your EQ:

Page | 58

What is Your Empathy Quotient (EQ)?

Are you sensitive to others, care about them, and want to help?

Do you listen with your heart not just your head?

Can you hold space for others to express their emotions?

Can you listen without needing to fix someone’s problem immediately?

Are you capable of the give and take of intimate relationships?

Are you intuitive and sensitive to other’s needs?

Do you care about the greater good, and the wellbeing of Earth?

If you answered “yes” to six to seven questions you have an extremely high empathy quotient Responding “yes” to four to five questions you have a high EQ Responding “yes” to two to three questions you have a moderate EQ Responding “yes” to zero to one question you have a low EQ and are ready to start to develop your empathy.

How to Develop Empathy If you have a lower EQ, empathy is a skill that you can developed through mindful awareness. To do this first quiet your inner chatter so you can bring your total presence to a conversation.

Then take the time to listen carefully to what the other person is saying. Even if you don’t agree with them, try to understand what they are experiencing and feeling. This will allow you to develop more empathy for the other person and improve your ability to communicate with them.

How to Cope with Empathy Overload If your EQ is high, you might be prone to empathy overload. To avoid this, it’s important to learn to center and protect yourself and practice on-going self-care. When you find yourself overwhelmed, take a breath to center yourself and make time to meditate and decompress. Get out in nature to relax if you can.

It’s also wonderful to learn how to set kind but firm boundaries with others so you don’t over commit yourself. In addition, it’s important to realize that it’s not your job to emotionally fix Page | 59

others and that people deserve the dignity of navigating their own healing path.

No matter what your EQ is, it’s always possible to develop more empathy and to protect and center yourself if you are experiencing empathy overload. You don’t have to absorb the stress of the world. More information and protection strategies in my book “The Empath’s Survival Guide” and “The Empath’s Survival Guide” online course.

"The Practical Old Soul" By Lee Carroll/Kryon

Greetings, dear ones, I am Kryon of Magnetic Service.

You are facing a beautiful, beautiful energy and yet you may not realize it. In order to get from dark to light, there are profound transitions. What you know from living on the planet is that transition can be difficult, especially when you go from a darker energy to a lighter one. There are those in the dark who will fight to the death in order to keep from changing. It is a way of life and a way of control for them. But, dear ones, this earth transition is indeed happening. The speed of it will take only as long as you decide it will. Free choice on the planet will determine the timing. You are in the change now, and you have just begun to see it.

There will come a time, literally, when you can say, “The sun has come out; light has won.” This will not mean that the entire planet has become enlightened. Instead, what you are going to have is a planet that thinks differently. It will be a paradigm of existence that is more based on the basic truth of what an old soul would know, as opposed to what a beginner on the planet would know. It is a new paradigm based upon the concepts of a changing Human nature - a maturing and rebalancing of consciousness - and it is going to look a lot different.

Page | 62

What do you think the future practical life of an old soul might look like for a day? How would it be different from what you do now, just for a day? I want to give you a short example.

A Day in the Life of the New Human We often use the character Wo in parables and stories, and now we will again. Wo is not a man or a woman. In this story, Wo can be either, although we are going to call Wo a he, but actually he is a wo-man. This will be the story of a day in the practical life of an old soul in a future time that is not yet here. It will show a new paradigm from the moment he gets up to when he goes to sleep.

Believability This story has to start, dear ones, with you understanding that this individual, this Human, this old soul in the future, has a completely different paradigm of existence than you have today.

It is a paradigm where the Human has literally changed the relationship he has to everything around him. He has changed his relationship to God, to those around him and to the earth. So it may be tough for you to believe everything I am going to show you now, but I want you to listen to the story just for a moment.

As I tell it to you, every once in a while I will say, "Stop". Then I will reveal an old energy comparison to what you are being shown. It will be a night-and-day revelation to the differences in the way Wo treats things in the coming future from what happens today.

In this new paradigm, Wo, this old soul, was born into a civilization that is long past thinking that all their help comes from the outside. They are not a civilization who believes that they are unworthy in the sight of God. They don't feel that they must call on a greater source in order to accomplish everyday life solutions. So right there in that revelation, you see a big difference from the civilization you live in. Their paradigm of existence has changed, and Wo believes that all things spiritual and beautiful are carried inside the Human Being. "God inside" is a cognized message from the masters and is the new Human nature. It is now being applied practically in everyday life. So Page | 63

there is no "scamper to find help" like you see today, or an older energy where much of an entire civilization believes that they are unworthy and that all good things come from above. So I want you to think about that for a moment, because that is how Wo approaches his day.

Stop.

Do you really think that this will ever occur? Do you think that humanity would ever get to a place where they felt they did not have to get help from an outside source? Do you think there ever will come a day where houses of worship are simply antique buildings? It seems to be a stretch of the imagination until you think of this. What does evolution of consciousness mean to you?

It's not going to be something that is forced upon humanity.

Rather, it is something that humanity is going to see for themselves over time. It is going to be logical and make sense through a slowly evolving consciousness. Over time, humanity will begin to understand what the masters really meant and start practicing what they said. For eons, Humans have been told that the most sacred things that exist are inside every single Human Being. "Made in his image" means made in the image of love and, in that, humanity would start to realize that the image God the creator has always been inside. Therefore, Humans can access God, spirit, ancestors instantly, through processes that are builtin. So this is where we start the story.

-------------Wo awakens like he does every morning, about to go to work. He puts both feet on the floor and he does an affirmation exercise, and expects good things. This is the first thing he does. He pushes the consciousness of benevolence through his day right at the beginning. The affirmation he would have is this: "This is a good day, and I am going to have a consciousness that will surpass any challenge I have today. Good things are before me."

Page | 64

Stop.

Why would he do this? How many Humans do that in an old energy? Let me give you the popular way: You put your feet on the floor and you are about to get up and you say, “Oh, here it is again, another challenging day. I hope things go better than they did yesterday. Yesterday's issues are all still on my mind, and I did not get a very good sleep. I don't know what is going to happen to me today. I hope I survive!” Are you seeing a difference? The biggest difference is the expectation of benevolence, but there really is more. Wo is really saying, "This day is controllable by me!" This is a practical consideration, so the first thing he does, with feet on the floor, is to celebrate the fact that he is going to get through any problems that come. What he is doing is CREATING his reality that day.

Remember this: Humanity will always have duality to work with.

There will always be choice between darkness and light, drama and love. The idea that someday you will have a perfect planet where nothing ever goes wrong is an artificial idea that many Humans have because of your linear thinking - black or white - or the idea that everyone will think alike and be angelic. You will always have free choice, and you will always have unique pasts and Akashic records that work with you in positive ways. This creates different ideas and opinions. You will still have a form of politics, but it will look far different and be much more elegant.

So, what is Wo really doing in that moment? He is creating, through his consciousness, something physical - a bubble, you might say, that then goes before him wherever he travels. It becomes as practical as putting on shoes to let you walk on hard surfaces. Is it too much to think that a Human one day might start the day that way?

Wo brushes his teeth and does all the things that you do today to get prepared to leave the house. Wo still goes to work in a vehicle, although not all his neighbors do. Things have changed greatly over time. Wo's vehicle may look a little different, but he Page | 65

gets in it in order to travel to work on roads.

On his way to work, Wo sees something that might actually change his life forever, if he lets it. There has been some kind of an accident with another vehicle. In his day, this doesn't happen very often, but Human reactions, errors of judgment and distractions are still present and there has been a horrible event, and it's right before his eyes. On the curb there is a crying woman, a mother. There are those surrounding her, trying to calm her. A short distance from her Wo can see the ambulances loading the very still, covered bodies of her two, small, dead children.

For this woman, life has taken a horrible twist. It's going to create the potential of lifelong grief that surpasses anything imaginable. For her, the day started out well, but in an instant her children are gone. She would carry this day to her grave.

Could there be any greater horror story for any mother?

Wo is overcome with sadness and starts to weep. You see, in this new earth, in a very practical way, compassion is the king of emotions. Wo sees it all, and suddenly there is more than just empathy from him. Instead, he feels everything she feels. He stops his car and continues weeping in his control seat. He then does something very special, dear ones. He gets a hold of himself and starts a process that he knows well and has done many times before. He begins to visualize this woman in her future as she is recovering, understanding, surviving, and having some peace over this event in ways that perhaps are unsustainable in today’s psychological understanding.

He sees her recovering in so great a manner that he can visualize her laughing again. This is the visualization then he sends directly to the curb where she is in that moment of her horror and grief, knowing that he has just planted a very real seed. It's real, and Wo has just practiced something called compassionate action.

Page | 66

Stop.

Today, if this happened, there would also be those who were very compassionate. However, it might wound them forever. They would never forget the sight. It would affect the child inside (the inner child) and their joy factor. In today’s civilization, there are so many things like this, so many horrors like this that continue daily, that many sensitive Humans empathize to the degree that it ruins their lives. All they can think about is how unjust things are and how they want to change them. They will weep daily for what is happening somewhere else, and in the process, dear ones, they have not helped anybody! Instead, in the process they have pulled themselves down into a lower energy of empathy, worry and fear. They will die younger than normal due to it. It's all because their compassion got the best of them.

But Wo would not let that happen, because he knows that this is the old way and is dangerous. So one of the attributes in this new energy that we are revealing, within the practical nature of a normal person, is to see situations like this and go immediately into compassionate action. What Wo did was to immediately think of a solution and send actions of compassion, because consciousness can change things. Much like today when you might pray for a person, Wo is doing more than that. He is projecting joy in the future for her. He is creating understanding and recovery for that woman, letting it begin this day.

He starts his car and continues. He stops his weeping, and instead he starts smiling because he can see it actually happening in his mind. There will come a day when she will laugh again.

There will come a day when she will recover. Not today, not tomorrow, not next month, not next year, but a time when all of these things will be settled within her in a way that she can understand. Wo participates in that humanness of her recovery, even though she remains on the curb as he pulls away.

Wo gets to work and soon he is having a nice day. He is doing his work, and then he is called into the office of the one who does the Page | 67

control. Now, what happens next is not specific. I will generalize it. It comes in one of many scenarios, all of which you will recognize. He faces off with his controller. It might be any of these scenarios: "Wo, you are late again. Wo, there has been a problem over here with one of your clients. Wo, you will have to work on the weekend because this did not work out well. Wo, we are not going to promote you this time, just like last time." Wo, this. Wo, that. "Wo, we are considering eliminating your position, or replacing you."

Wo leaves the office and for a moment - just for a moment - he is flooded with an old energy called “worry” and “fear”. What would he do without this job? How would he tell his wife what has just happened? What does it mean to him? Is it as simple as having to work some overtime that he did not plan or is it more than that? Then Wo is still, and takes a deep breath. In an instant, he reframes everything that happened and he realizes this is the beginning of a shift, of a change. It will be a benevolent change, even if he doesn't understand how. Wo doesn’t know the timing of any of it, but he starts to smile, because it is the beginning of a shift that he knows will be good for him and benevolent for all he is.

Stop.

If this happened today, what would be the typical reaction? It would be this: Worry the whole day; worry the whole night; worry the entire next month; tell all your friends so that they can worry also with you. This is called "drama". Whatever happens happens, but the drama continues and continues. It would also build a bridge of darkness between the employer and the worker.

Then more worry: "What is going to be next? What can happen?

They do not appreciate me. I am not worthy."

None of those things were on Wo’s mind, but he had to convert the potential in about three seconds from an old energy fear reaction to a thought that is way above the consciousness of today. He automatically flipped the energy into a scenario that Page | 68

said, "Maybe I do not belong here. Maybe this is a sign. Maybe something is going to happen that is beautiful. I can hardly wait. I will do as I am told. I will work the overtime. I will even accept the pink slip (termination notice) because there is something better coming."

Then it continued. It was not a half an hour later that he heard the cheering going on. One of his friends in one of the other cubicles in his office had been promoted to one of the positions he wanted. He wandered over to be part of the celebration and fully participated - and he meant it. He was so pleased that a friend of his was succeeding, and so pleased that that friend got a raise - so pleased! He didn't see it as a reflection that had anything to do with him. He didn't let the former news affect his happiness for his friend.

Stop.

Do I have to say it? In an older energy, there is so much of self and so much ego projection. "Why not me? What did he have that I did not have? He took my job. I do not like him anymore. I am not going to talk to him anymore. I am going to go home and eat worms." It's like some would do anything at this point to stay depressed. He continues, "This is awful! First, I get an idea that I may not be employed anymore, then I find out somebody else got promoted instead of me."

But that was not the reaction at all, for you see, Wo already knew "this or something better" and he had a belief that "benevolence is coming". He did not know when or how, but here in front of him was a friend who had something wonderful happen something that was good and would change the person's lifestyle.

He knew that the friend would soon tell their family, and they would have a beautiful dinner and sing celebration songs. What a good time this is to celebrate the joy of a friend!

Stop.

Page | 69

Is this even possible? Can a Human really put away feelings of hurt or worry to a degree where the first thought is to celebrate the one next to them who might be taking their job away? This, dear ones, is the evolution of consciousness. You see, just like Wo felt empathy for the woman, he also felt the joy of his friend.

It had become built-in over generations of evolution. It might seem to you to be beyond what a Human could normally do, but that's where it's going.

It is now time for Wo to go home. Wo, like so many Humans everywhere, had a lot on his mind, but he received an intuitive thought that said, "You are forgetting something." Wo couldn't quite put his finger on it, as you say, and it was still an elusive thought without substance. He drove home.

Wo’s home was small but beautiful. He had a beautiful family who thought much like he did. But there were a few things that Wo knew that had to be a certain way. His wife was a wonderful cook, and dinner was served at a certain time each evening. He had to be there for this and no being late. Early in his marriage, he had made the mistake of being late and he only did it that one time. The reaction was that she felt unappreciated. Indeed, Wo's partner deserved him to be there on time to enjoy what she had prepared and had worked on for at least an hour and half before he got home. The family would be waiting. Indeed, Wo was on time, just like always, and was about to pull into the house - and then his intuition gave him the message, "Wo, this is your wedding anniversary." Gasp.

Immediately, there was a decision to make. Do I run to the flower shop, get the flowers, get the card, and come back and be late for dinner? Which is better, being late for dinner or not having the flowers (a horrible thing)? His intuition served him well. Wo made a quick stop, not to the flower shop but to the stall he remembered was on the corner, not too far away. There were lots of flowers, good ones, higher prices, but lots of good ones that she deserved. Wo quickly purchased the flowers and came back as fast as he could, but it took 15 minutes. Now he was 15 minutes Page | 70

late.

He did not know what would happen, but at least he had the flowers. Now he could walk in and say, "Happy Anniversary!

Honey, I’m sorry I’m late." So that's what he did.

But something else happened as well. You see, when he walked through the door, all of his friends were there! It was a Happy Anniversary surprise party, and he had the flowers right there in his hand. (Thank you intuition!) He was not late for dinner, because there was no dinner! Instead there was a party. Wo had not disappointed her, and HE HAD FLOWERS! Get the point?

What had just happened?

Stop.

Wo had paused for a moment and had listened to his intuition, a higher part of him which knew beyond what he knew what was going on in the house. His intuition knew what he should do, and he listened and trusted it, and he immediately went to get the flowers.

In an older energy, dear ones, you would have had a clueless Human being making a 50% chance of a right or wrong decision, not understanding that there is a higher, innate part of yourself who knows so much more than you do. There is a Higher-Self above you, and for Wo, it knew that there was a party in the house. Listening to his intuition was common for Wo, and he used it every day as a staple, not something that fleeted by without substance. It told him who to call and how to say the things he had to say to the clients he needed to talk to. It was his way of life and Wo knew it worked. He had practice, and it worked yet again.

When the party was over, his wife said, “Thank you so much for those beautiful, natural, fresh-picked flowers! Wo, we had a great time!” Wo agreed, and the furthest thing from his mind was Page | 71

to tell her what happened at work. Wo thought and smiled, "I'll give her the good news later."

Wo was about to go to sleep. His feet were on the floor, and before he lifted them into bed he said, “Thank you, Spirit. Thank you, Creator. Thank you for letting me be there for that woman.

Thank you for letting me help my friend celebrate. Thank all of the cells of my body for youthing today. Thank you for the disease that was chased away today because I did not get into worry or fear or drama. Thank you inner child and innate that I can smile now. I am not worried about my job. You see, this or something better." Wo turned and looked at his life's partner. "Good night, sweetheart.

------------This story is real. All of it. This is what has happened on planets you don't know about. This is the potential for you to think so far above anything that is going on in your life now that it seems unreal or impossible. This paradigm defines enlightenment. The age of compassion is coming. It will rewrite and reframe all that Humans think about and react to.

I just gave you a snapshot, not something out of the purview of reality at all, but something instead that belongs to you and is in your deserved and future lineage. This is because you passed the marker in 2012. Many might say, “Wow, I would like to be there to see it." [Kryon chuckles] You will. All of you, all of you.

And so it is.

KRYON About Lee Carroll: After graduating with a business and economics degree from California Western University in California, Lee Carroll started a technical audio business in San Diego that flourished for 30 years.

Page | 72

As an award winning audio engineer, where does channelling and Indigo children fit into all this? As Lee tells it, Spirit had to hit him "between the eyes" to prove his spiritual experience was real. The year 1989 was the turning point when finally came together, after some years earlier a psychic told him about his spiritual path and then three years later the second unrelated psychic told him the same thing! Both spoke of Kryon... a name that almost nobody had ever heard.

Timidly, the first writings were presented to the metaphysical community in Del Mar, California, and the rest is history - with a total of sixteen metaphysical books being released in a twelveyear span. There are now almost one million Kryon and Indigo books in print in over twenty eight languages worldwide. Lee continues to visit other countries regularly see it here.

Lee and his spiritual partner, Jan Tober, started the "Kryon light groups" in Del Mar in 1991 and quickly moved from a living-room setting, to a Del Mar church. The Kryon organization now hosts meetings all over the globe with audiences of up to 3,000 people.

"Downloading the Programs for our New Solar Planetary CAUSE of Divine Love”

By Patricia Cota-Robles

Page | 74

The Beings of Light who are assisting us from On High have revealed that Humanity’s shift into Unity Consciousness is succeeding beyond the greatest expectations of Heaven. People everywhere are beginning to “see with new eyes and hear with new ears.” As a result, the Earth and all Life evolving upon her are Ascending up the Spiral of Evolution at warp speed. This is allowing Humanity to receive and integrate the greatly amplified waves of Solar Light that are bathing the Earth at this time from our physical Sun, and the Suns beyond Suns beyond Suns that nurture and sustain Life in this system of worlds.

Through this intensified Solar activity, the I AM Presence of every man, woman, and child on Earth is now able to activate the pineal gland and open the Crown Chakra of Enlightenment to new breadths. The veil has been lifted. Now we can openly communicate with our I AM Presence and the Company of Heaven in ways that we have not experienced since prior to our fall from Grace aeons ago. This is enabling all of us to hear more clearly the inner voice of our I AM Presence and the celestial guidance that is being given to us by the Company of Heaven.

With the God Victorious accomplishment of this facet of Humanity’s awakening, we are ALL being called to a higher service. It is time for us to fulfill the Divine Mission that each of us volunteered to accomplish in this lifetime. We were allowed to embody during the auspicious moment of Earth’s Ascension into the 5th-Dimensional Realms of Light, because we agreed to use our creative faculties of thought and feeling and our gift of free will to cocreate the patterns of perfection for the New Earth.

These patterns involve the Divine Alchemy of transfiguring our bodies and the body of Mother Earth from carbon-based planetary cells into 5th-Dimensional Crystalline-based Solar Light Cells. This process requires recalibrating our DNA into frequencies of Solar Light.

Scientists used to believe that our DNA was stationary and stagnant. We now know that our DNA is a shimmering, waveform configuration that is being modified by Light, Solar Page | 75

radiation, magnetic fields, sonic impulses, thoughtforms, and emotions. When Humanity’s I AM Presences join together to collectively imprint the genetic codes for our 5th-Dimensional Planetary CAUSE of Divine Love onto our DNA, these patterns will ignite every cell in our bodies and lift us into alignment with our Solar Light Bodies of infinite perfection. This Solar perfection will then be secured in the nucleus of every atomic and subatomic particle and wave of Life on Earth. Once this is accomplished, suddenly and miraculously nothing will be the same.

In order to accomplish this mighty feat, we must invoke Humanity’s I AM Presence and the Solar Logos from Suns beyond Suns to encode our Solar Strands of DNA with the patterns of perfection from our New Planetary CAUSE of Divine Love. Through this unified effort involving Heaven and Earth, we will birth a Renaissance of Love that will transform this planet into expressions of Oneness and Reverence for Life that reflect her Divine Destiny.

The Company of Heaven has given us a powerful Activity of Light that will allow each of us to download the patterns of perfection for our New Planetary CAUSE of Divine Love. These patterns are pulsating within the Causal Body of God. Through this process, the patterns will be encoded onto the fluid field of unmanifest Divine Potential within the NEW Solar Strands of Humanity’s DNA. With this amazing Gift of Grace from our Father-Mother God, we will begin the process of birthing a living, everexpanding Renaissance of Divine Love that will lift every facet of Life on Earth and awaken even the most recalcitrant souls.

Please join with me now as our I AM Presences download the wondrous patterns for our New Planetary CAUSE of Divine Love, which have been given to us by our Father-Mother God and the Company of Heaven. This invocation is stated in the first person so that we will each experience it personally, but simultaneously we are invoking this Light on behalf of ALL Humanity. Through each person’s I AM Presence, this Activity of Light will take place Page | 76

in perfect alignment with his or her Divine Plan and the Highest Good for ALL concerned.

Downloading Solar Programs for A Renaissance of Divine Love I AM my I AM Presence and I Invoke: My omniscient, omnipresent, omnipotent Father-Mother God, the Cosmic I AM, All That Is. I Invoke the Aspects of my Father-Mother God from the Great, Great Central Sun, the Solar Logos El and Ela. I Invoke the Aspects of my Father-Mother God from the Great Central Sun, the Solar Logos Elohae and Eloha.

I Invoke the Aspects of my Father-Mother God from the Central Sun, the Solar Logos Alpha and Omega.

I Invoke the Aspects of my Father-Mother God from the physical Sun, the Solar Logos Helios and Vesta.

I Invoke the I AM Presence of every man, woman, and child on Earth.

I invoke the balanced frequency of my Father-Mother God’s 5thDimensional Violet Flame of Infinite Perfection.

I ask the I AM Presence of each member of my family, my friends, and the entire Family of Humanity to take command of this Activity of Light, which I AM Invoking on behalf of myself and every person on Earth. Precious Hearts, download the following programs for each person in perfect alignment with his or her Divine Plan and the Highest Good for ALL concerned.

"Goodbye 3D Celebrations" By Brenda Hoffman

Dear Ones, You have exited 3D. Even so, many of you celebrated the holidays this year as usual. The difference is this year’s celebrations probably held little meaning for you. Perhaps you teared up interacting with certain friends or relatives, but the celebrations themselves felt empty. As if you were standing outside the celebratory circle observing but not participating.

Such holiday feelings might be difficult for some to acknowledge, for you are supposed to be giddy with joy, love, anger, or something. Yet, you felt little or nothing – as if it were a day or time like any other.

You have shifted beyond 3D needs and shoulds. By doing so, you became somewhat disconnected. “Shouldn’t I feel more, do Page | 84

more, or love more?” According to 3D shoulds, the answer is a resounding yes. In the past, if you did not feel as was expected or displayed by others, you felt guilty, sad, even humiliated.

We, of the Universes, will let you in on a little secret. The majority of 3D beings do not feel what the media, religions, community, and others project should be felt during a holiday.

ThreeD holiday celebrations are most often a con. A few random days for all to express love and joy. Days that are wonderful for those who manage to express the promoted feelings. But most humans do not or cannot – producing a sense of worthlessness, wrongness, even badness within them.

So it is depression is rampant during 3D holidays. ThreeD human days selected to honor religious deities, the changing seasons, military victories or defeats, earth births, conquered lands, and on and on. Nothing necessarily tied to individual needs or interests, but the result of decrees issued by those in power.

You are returning to a more natural state in which your special joy days result from your actions and interests instead of social shoulds.

Do you realize the efforts you exerted for generations to create feelings declared appropriate by someone outside yourself?

So it is false celebrations are ending for you.

Even though you likely enjoy some of the festivities and interactions, many celebrations have little emotional meaning for you, unlike what your movies and documentaries project.

Does that last statement mean you should not celebrate holidays?

No. Celebrations will become more frequent, for they will lack social shoulds and instead create the loving experiences you so Page | 85

crave.

You do not yet quite understand what we, of the Universes, are speaking of, for you believe that either you enjoy the holidays created by those in power decades or hundreds of years ago, or you will be isolated from many earth joys.

Instead, you, enmasse, will create new celebratory events, days, weeks, and months based on your interests and community, not global events implemented by those in 3D power to produce specific actions or feelings.

Your new celebrations will have meanings far beyond your current celebrations. Does that mean Christmas is no longer part of the celebratory year’s events? Instead, you will celebrate how, if, or when you wish. You might decide to have a Christmas-like celebration in June or not at all. And instead of gifts, food, arguments, shaming, and travel difficulties, you might create a holiday next year filled with items fresh from the garden, eaten by a tree with your special friend.

You are no longer required to feel or do this any day of any year.

You are free of 3D shoulds.

As you fully exit your 3D lives, you will discover new and different joys, including holidays appropriate for you.

You are new, and so are your celebratory days and feelings.

Allow that to be. And then create what you need, when you need it, based on your feelings instead of the dictates of others. So be it. Amen.

"What’s The Best Solution To Eliminating Fear?" By Michelle J. Howe

Fear is at the root of many dysfunctions in today’s society. Even the mildest situations can often be perceived or seen as a real threat. In these instances, we experience uncomfortable emotions which, lead us to run, avoid, fight, or resist in some way.

Fear is a destructive force that is accompanied by discomfort or pain. As such, we avoid any and all situations we perceive as potentially painful.

Fear is activated when we anticipate “something” can hurt us.

These situations include- doing something wrong, making a mistake, speaking your mind, conflict, confrontation, negative attention, financial failure, endings and beginnings, societal judgment, or something like a new workplace.

Most people use strategies to mitigate and avoid uncomfortable emotions, pain, and discomfort. We want to avoid pain by controlling the environment, the storyline, and the outcomes.

Things like long to-do lists, endless planning, manipulating, justifying, denying, ignoring, avoiding, appeasing, and working Page | 88

too much are the ways that can keep us “safe” from any sort of pain.

Control tactics and strategies are conscious or subconscious behaviors. Some are visible and easily spotted. Others are hidden and operate behind the scenes. They can be simple or complex, with their own level of intensity.

Wisdom knows…

When we focus on controlling or avoiding something, we amplify and distort the reality in front of us. We become fear-filled. We become uneasy, distrustful, and suffer emotionally. All the control tactics in the world will not stop fear from creating the inner damage that interferes with your sense of peace.

Those who use strategies to the extreme are skeptics who are living in their head. They fail to see the value of play or connection. They are rigid in their day-to-day plan. They have strong requirements, opinions, and expectations. They focus intensely on what they say, what they do, what they don’t do, what is next, and what is around the corner. They can show up as polished on some level. They often seem vigilant, watchful, careful, protective, apprehensive, manipulative, and distrustful.

These people have allowed fear and the avoidance of pain to direct their lives. They may even shut down their capacity to feel and value emotions – within themselves or in others around them. While this may work for them for a short while, at some point, many of these people will experience a collapse of their reality – accumulated pain that’s manifesting as a physical disease, an emotional breakdown, or mental fatigue.

Wisdom says…

There’s no room for fear. It’s time to up-level our mindset, manage our emotions, shift perspectives, and step into positive Page | 89

action each day.

Change is the number one reality we fear. Change challenges even the most grounded and sunny person. Why? Change threatens our sense of identity, stability, and safety. Change sets the stage for anticipated discomfort, pain, loss, and trauma.

We hold the power to STOP activating and animating fear. We hold all the power within ourselves -to start, stop, pause, love, hate, resist, or allow. Choose without fear distorting our reality.

Start by asking yourself the following questionsCan you avoid or stop change?

Can you avoid discomfort and pain?

Can you control life?

The answer is no, no, and no.

Control is a myth.

We control only our response.

We do not control the circumstances.

The simple truth is that – Life is not under our control. We can take calculated actions.

Life is not about control. We find our way when we allow change.

Life is about living. This means shifting, bending, flexing, and evolving.

Life is active. We cry and laugh. We love. We play.

Life brings endings and beginnings in each day-to-day moment, situation, and relationship. Life guarantees you will change and be challenged. Life includes moments of pain and happiness. ____________________ …

What’s the best solution to eliminating fear?

• The solution is to welcome change.

• The solution is to eliminate fear.

• The solution is courage.

• The solution is love.

Love opens the heart. Love helps eliminate fears with strength, trust, and confidence in your own capacity to move through any challenge.

Love is the way to higher consciousness. Higher consciousness brings awareness, understanding and acceptance. In this way, we welcome change and fear nothing.

MBO's by Tom T. Moore This Blog is for people who wish to learn how to use a very simple, yet powerful and effective spiritual tool every day the rest of your life. It will lessen the stress and fear of life in general, and will make your life easier. It’s so simple a lot of people say “It can’t be this easy,” but it is, because IT WORKS! This reconnects you with your Guardian Angel, or higher power, or whatever your belief is. You simply say, “I request a Most Benevolent Outcome for… thank you!” When you read the stories below, sent from all over the world, we use the acronyms MBO for Most Benevolent Outcomes, GA for Guardian Angel, and BP for Benevolent Prayers (what you ask for other people).

Be sure to participate when I ask you to say a Benevolent Prayer out loud, but are you also saying the Daily BP each morning as I do? Theo says this is one of the most important things you could do for yourself not only for this life, but all the others you have lived or will live on earth, as they are all happening at the same time. Print it out and put it on your bathroom mirror to remind you. Here is the link: http://www.thegentlewaybook.com/signs.htm. Here is an example of a BP for everyone to say today: “I ask any and all beings to intervene in the most benevolent way to stop any terrorist attacks before they happen anywhere in the world, to respect other religions, and for there to be peace in the world, thank you!” **** Editor's note. I think this is very important with the earth going thru so much at this time.

Tom asks that we do this each day:

Page | 93

Please say this out loud each morning: “I now send white light and love to every continent, every island, all the rivers, lakes and streams, and all the oceans and seas, and I release this light to go where it is needed the most to light up the darkest parts of the world, and I send white light and love to every single person and being I meet or encounter today, thank you!” ***** MBO FOR SAFE AND EASY SHOPPING TRIP Kate writes: I use them constantly throughout the day and really for any trip I take outside of the house, so I did my usual MBO a few weeks back for a safe and easy shopping trip, and then headed over to T.J. Maxx to grab a few things. I knew that it might be pretty busy this time of year, but I thought I’d give it a try anyway.

The store didn’t seem particularly busy, but when I went to check out, what I thought was the end of the (long) line was actually the middle. I’ve never seen such a long line there, so I decided to just put my stuff back and go home. But right as I made the decision and I started to walk back toward the isles an employee called me over to the jewelry counter and asked the woman who was there to ring me up.

I felt pretty guilty skipping ahead of everybody else in that long line, but they were pretty adamant that I just check out there, since I didn’t have that many things (I did haha). So I accepted the opportunity gratefully. And they were all so incredibly nice, beyond the favor it was just really enjoyable to chat with them. It was so fun and exciting to get that little treat; it gave me a boost for days! I know it was a result of my GA/MBO. I will always be so grateful to you Tom for sharing the Gentle Way with us. My life is filled with so many more wonderful things as a result of you and my GA. MBO FOR DOG’S RECOVERY FROM SURGERY Page | 94

Sue writes: Just wanted to report on my MBOs I have been making for my elderly dog with cancer. Mesha has had a history of lumps with low grade cancer for the past 3.5 years, and this time the lump was located on her elbow. It was a hard surgery, and her recovery was slow taking several more procedures to get the sutures to close, and we did consult an oncologist afterward.

The post-surgery swelling never seemed to go down and within a month it appeared that the lump had returned. We had a followup appointment with the oncologist this week and the doctor was certain the lump indicated more cancer. The options were not looking good but we decided to do a needle biopsy first. My gut said scar tissue due to all the trauma healing but the vet rejected that idea and felt sure we would find massive cancer cells.

Our GA’s came through again and brought the Most Benevolent Outcome! Some cells were found but nothing like the vet expected to see and we may be dealing with inflammation and scar tissue instead of a return of the cancer. We have scheduled another full biopsy surgery to be sure and I have a lot more confidence in a specialty clinic taking better care of my buddy. I have been asking our GA’s on a regular basis to protect us both from our cancers and I believe they are doing everything they can to follow through. I thank them every time from the bottom of my heart.

MBOs FOR NO SIDE EFFECTS FOR JABS Laurie writes: Thanks to MBOs, I’ve never had a side effect or uncomfortable reaction to a Covid vaccine shot. I have had three shots, two during the month of March and a booster in early November. Before each shot, I requested an MBO for my body to absorb and assimilate the vaccine perfectly, without any uncomfortable side effects. I had some soreness in my arm at the injection site the first two times because I forgot to ask for an MBO to prevent it. (D’oh!) I remembered to ask an MBO for no arm soreness when I went for my recent booster shot, and I had none, despite the fact that the pharmacist gave me “the jab” too far up on my shoulder muscle and bruised me! I put a cold compress on the bruise and that was that. I had no fever, aches, Page | 95

or chills from the vaccine. I love MBOs! REQUESTING MBOs FOR SOMEONE ELSE Norbert in Ontario writes: I hope you are well.

When I am requesting an MBO for myself I address it to either my guardian angel, my spirit guides or both.

My question is: When I am requesting an MBO for someone else, whom do I address it to? If I use the phrase “any and all beings”, I would think that is too general and opens the door to anyone in the spirit world including those spirits or entities who are tricksters and are not necessarily working for the better good. So how would I address an MBO when I am requesting something for my wife, as an example?

Here is how my Guardian Angel Theo explained it to me. There are a little over one million whole souls that we call guardian angels, but have raised their vibrational levels to the point where they glow a golden light, and are known as “Golden Light Beings.” They are able to take care and watch over of hundreds of thousands of people all at the same time.

Then Theo says there are another one million whole souls, we also call angels that handle every single prayer said on Earth. I asked him if they were Golden Light Beings, and he said, “No, they are younger, but eager!”

That’s why, for Benevolent Prayers, I came up with the phrase “I ask any and all beings to….thank you!” It’s easy for everyone to remember. In my first book, I had a number of different ways to say this and called them “Living Prayers,” as was channeled by Robert Shapiro, but this is so much easier, especially in a tight or hazardous situation.

I have a couple of friends that are devout Christians, and they cannot imagine saying a prayer that does not say “Dear God,” or “Dear Jesus,” and Amen at the end. It does not sound like a Page | 96

prayer to them. But I designed these so that they can be said by people of any faith.

So choose what feels good to you. It will be heard, I assure you!

"Just Follow The Yellow Brick Road" By Steven Boyd

I bet most of you recall the yellow brick road from the famous movie that was produced many years ago. The character Dorothy was making her way to OZ to meet the great wizard. Her goal was to get back home. Along the way, she met a good witch who told her to stay on the yellow brick road as this would lead to the wizard. While on this road, Dorothy met some wonderful friends but also encountered quite a few obstacles including a bitter old witch who tried to thwart Dorothy’s plan for happiness.

If one takes a moment to think about this movie, it’s a metaphor for life. Each of us comes down from the bosom of spirit upon this world to experience life, which is full of happy and sad dreams. Unlike Dorothy, our path is not set outright as a yellow brick road. But, the great all seeing and knowing wizard in His infinite mercy and grace did give us a road to follow that leads to true happiness. It’s the golden road of wisdom that Jesus, Bhagavan Krishna, Buddha, Mahavatar Babaji and many other saints including my Guru followed back to the divine kingdom of eternal freedom and joy.

This hallowed road is open for all to follow. Unlike being in this world, this inner road has no dues or fees as it’s free to all who Page | 100

have a strong desire to know peace and happiness. Willingness is the key to walk this road. The sole giver and granter of these priceless gifts is none other than the all wise and loving wizard of this universe, God. Just as Dorothy struggled at times along the yellow brick road, following this golden road is no easy journey. It requires daily work, dedication, endurance and devotion. But, the hard earned rewards and blessings that we reap as a result of our good actions, no one can take from us these eternal gifts from spirit.

As seekers of truth, we need to be aware this world of opposites has many temptations, distractions and pitfalls along the way.

These distractions of avidya or ignorance are constantly trying to distract the seeker of knowledge from his or her goal, which is to meet the all wise and loving grand wizard of this universe face to face.

During this age or current yuga, we have so many distractions from the digital-social domain to other more primal pitfalls such as drinking, vaping, drugs, sex, gossip and greed that can fill our minds and hearts with sorrow, suffering and discontent. All of those pitfalls are nothing but dangerous dead ends. In order to win on this golden road of life, we must be vigilant and careful to avoid those deceitful traps that try to hold us like quicksand.

How many people have we heard of or known that were “flying high” with success or fame one day and falling into the gutter of suffering shortly after because they got caught up in some form of ignorance and forgot who they were. We tend to see it more often with famous actors or musicians because sadly, the media seems to enjoy making their suffering known to the masses.

The fact is, from birth to death, we are confronted with all kinds of things that challenge us in everyday life. I’ve known the very wealthy to those who were living in poverty. Both sides have struggles to deal with and no one is immune until they become enlightened.

Page | 101

So, how do we go from being entangled in this endless drama of life to being happy and free in spirit? We do so by making the choice to walk the golden brick road of peace and wisdom that was blessed by God and hallowed by the many saints and sages that walked before us.

It all begins with a simple choice and action. Do we want to continue doing the same thing over and over and keep suffering the same results? No. That is the definition of insanity. Or, do we want to try another way that leads to being happy, joyous and free. This joy the saints speak about doesn’t fade with time but grows stronger as we traverse the road of wisdom.

The grand wizard of this universe “God” in His infinite wisdom and compassion has given us the golden brick road to find freedom and true happiness this life. The past and all of its errors and sorrows do not matter anymore. We’ve all made many mistakes along the way. Fortunately, God loves us no matter how naughty we have been.

Just remember, our path to redemption, health and happiness begins with one foot forward, followed by another. As my guru liked to say “Saints are sinners who never gave up”.

Prayer and meditation is the surest and quickest way to alleviate our many sufferings both mental and physical. If we are sincere in our daily effort to live rightly in spirit, God’s grace will come over us and wash away the sorrow and replace it with joy. The grand wizard of this universe is all too happy to pour down His endless grace and blessings to help those who walk the humble road of righteousness and to make our crooked path straight.

So remember my fellow travelers, just follow the yellow brick!

"It's All About The Vibrations!" By Sean McCleary

There has been a fundamental level of activity happening in Earth's consciousness and environment with the existence of living organisms that the human race hasn't previously understood before. This will be revealed in a little while with the introduction of the Shift in Consciousness. I understand that I have been discussing this event with my work for quite a while but there is specific types of activity happening in Universal Consciousness, space and time that has needed to happen first.

The age of Universal Consciousness is estimated here at about 13.77 billion years old. There was also an early developmental period similar to what happens with reproduction with a child in the womb of a mother. Universal Consciousness was born out of Infinite Consciousness which is much larger and contains the foundation and source of eternal life and eternal love. Beginning at the early developmental stages and introduction from the big bang when matter was introduced there was the evolution of consciousness happening and resistance to the evolution of consciousness, matter, energy and pressure also that occurred.

The foundation for the evolution of consciousness is eternal love because love gives eternity a reason to exist. Eternal love evolved into the development of Universal Consciousness and some of this consciousness went through a powerful experience of separation in the evolution of consciousness as well. Infinite Consciousness hasn't previously contained the existence of Page | 104

matter.

Nikola Tesla said, "If you wish to understand the Universe think of energy, frequency and vibration. The term "the Universe" is simply a description of what human beings observe through different instrumentation and their own consciousness of an enormous, majestic, beautiful and powerful life form that we all exist within. On the most powerful quantum and fundamental level the evolution of consciousness generates the evolution of matter in space and time and soon the entire human race will be introduced into this type of activity; although a lot of people believe this already. Before Universal Consciousness was born Infinite Consciousness contained frequency vibrations, pressure and eternal love. Consciousness and higher frequency vibrations generate light energy and consciousness and lower frequency vibrations generate dark energy.

When these two primary forms of energy evolve into one another because they're different what happens is this causes an accumulation of pressure within the vibrations themselves.

Pressure transfers into dark energy easier because the vibrations are lower. The pressure that's involved with the evolution of consciousness, matter and energy supports expansion, acceleration and growth. This is why scientists explain that the universe is expanding and accelerating is due to this pressure between the evolution of light and dark energy within the existence of consciousness.

The vibrations also represent the existence and experience of thought. Eternal love evolves into the vibrations of light and dark energy within the evolution of consciousness, matter, energy and pressure in space and time. Eternal love evolves into the pressure as well as the pressure is regulated within the evolution and exchange of light and dark energy within the existence of consciousness. But if consciousness doesn't understand the absolute truth about what's happening with existence; what happens is some of the pressure contained within the frequency vibrations of light and dark energy becomes restricted or too Page | 105

expansive and this generates an experience of separation in the evolution of consciousness. This is what happened with the evolution and introduction of Universal Consciousness. The birth of Universal Consciousness was extremely powerful because it was the first time that matter and the existence of a life form was being introduced into existence. It was like a baby in the womb of a mother being born here and the baby containing a thought process of self-actualization. Universal Consciousness didn't understand what was happening with evolution and this generated different degrees of restriction in pressure and eternal love had a difficult time evolving into the frequency vibrations of light and dark energy within the early developmental period and introduction from the big bang.

This is how resistance to the evolution of consciousness got into the evolution of consciousness, matter, energy and pressure in space and time and what has been driving the evolution and existence of life contained within Earth's environment. When the big bang happened there was a very powerful fusion that occurred with consciousness, light energy, dark energy and pressure. As soon as this moment occurred the vibrations themselves became separated in this moment and subatomic particles evolved into existence. Subatomic particles continue to evolve out of the evolution of the frequency vibrations of light and dark energy with different degrees of pressure. This is how subatomic particles exist and experience life. The vibrations of consciousness, light energy and dark energy are contained within Universal Consciousness and concentrations of matter within galaxies. Universal Consciousness is represented by a spherical type shape similar to stars and planets. This is how wormholes and vortexes are formed in existence. Because light and dark energy can behave in different ways at any given moment in space and time it generates a very powerful diversity of subatomic activity with evolution. Subatomic particles contain different degrees of consciousness, light energy, dark energy and pressure. Subatomic particles experience evolution and atoms are formed and then molecular activity develops into life. What happened though on the most fundamental level is some of the Page | 106

pressure involved with the evolution of consciousness, matter, energy and eternal love became restricted and too expansive in different ways and locations in Universal Consciousness.

This type of activity with pressure caused the resistance to the evolution of consciousness happen. When I mention resistance I mean; indifference, conflict, resentment, anger, rage, isolation and hatred in consciousness. What's happening now with the Shift in Consciousness is this restrictive and expansive pressure in Universal Consciousness, planets and life is in the process of evolving out of everything. The Higgs field is a primary field of consciousness and energy which permeates throughout Universal Consciousness and transfers into Infinite Consciousness. The Higgs field contains the foundation for eternal life and eternal love and also contains a combination of Infinite Consciousness and Universal Consciousness. What has been driving the evolution of Universal Consciousness is eternal life and eternal love has been evolving into all states of consciousness, matter, energy and pressure in Universal Consciousness through the Higgs field. Eternal love evolves from Infinite Consciousness, transfers through the Higgs field and into galaxies, stars, planets and life. As eternal life and eternal love have evolved into Universal Consciousness the resistance has been evolving out of everything. Now 13.77 billion years later what's happening is Universal Consciousness is evolving and changing into a much more advanced life form and everything contained within the body of galaxies will advance with this process. Universal Consciousness is joining Infinite Consciousness completely and the restrictive and expansive type pressure contained within different locations is now evolving out of consciousness, space and time so the frequency vibrations of light and dark energy can evolve into one another and eternal love can evolve and transfer into the evolution of consciousness properly and perfectly everywhere. This is going to change the existence and evolution of matter in Universal Consciousness as well. Human beings and other life forms in Earth's environment only have about a 5 to 8 percent transfer of consciousness and Page | 107

energy back and forth between themselves and the Higgs field.

This is because the resistance to the evolution of consciousness is so powerful in Earth's environment and within human consciousness. The reason is because human beings don't understand the foundation for the existence of life or what happens with the experience of death. Life and death are the two primary forms of activity which drive the evolution of consciousness and eternal love. The experience of death here advances consciousness and living organisms into the Whirlpool galaxy which is about 30 million light years from Earth and is commonly referred to as Heaven. All living organisms here evolve into different world's contained within the Whirlpool galaxy. Any resistance to the evolution of consciousness experienced here transfers out of human beings at the time of death because the resistance to the evolution of consciousness comes from restrictive type pressure in the body and consciousness. Because human beings don't yet understand life and death completely they also contain the concept of nonexistence in the body and consciousness. The concept of nonexistence is very, very powerful here in Earth's environment and this is what has been primarily responsible for the experience of separation in consciousness in different degrees and why some scientists have said that we exist within an illusion.

What's contained within Earth's environment and the human race is the reality of the evolution of consciousness and eternal love and the experience of separation in consciousness due to the resistance to evolution from different degrees of restrictive and expansive type pressure in the body (consciousness) and having the concept of non-existence in the body. This is what has caused so much resistance between human consciousness and the Higgs field.

What's happening now in Universal Consciousness is the area between the Milky Way galaxy and the Whirlpool galaxy is evolving and the two locations will become integrated together through the evolution of consciousness, matter, energy and Page | 108

pressure in space and time and the advancement of eternal love.

The reason that this process seems to be taking a little while; and a lot of people are waiting to see significant changes and miraculous activity begin happening, is because the resistance to evolution in this location of Universal Consciousness has been very powerful and it's taken some time for consciousness to evolve with eternal love here and between Earth and the Whirlpool galaxy as the restrictive and expansive type pressure evolved out of the evolution of consciousness. As more and more of this pressure changes and the evolution of consciousness advances with eternal love what will begin happening is this activity will begin affecting the behavior and existence of matter and energy that can be directly observed and experienced from human beings and the scientific community here. This is coming I promise; the miracle is on its way. This is why my work is so important right now is because I'm in the process of educating people on the evolution of consciousness and what's happening with the Shift in Consciousness.

What will happen in the next year to two years is on a global level is life will begin feeling and sensing the existence of eternal love in Earth's consciousness. The reason that my work is essential to this time is I am evolving with this process so I can explain to the entire scientific community what's happening with this process on many, many levels. In 2011 what happened to me is my body (consciousness) evolved into the Higgs field and I became adapted into the Shift in Consciousness. This was so somebody here could become affected by this activity first and contains the truth and details about this process that I can explain to the scientific community and the human race. There is also other very important reasons that this happened to me as well. I have been helping the resistance to the evolution of consciousness that I spoke of evolve out of Earth's consciousness and environment for over 10 years now. My life resembles a sense of normalcy with maintaining my responsibilities in society among people but I'm also exposed to a lot of different activity happening in Earth's consciousness and Universal Consciousness which has been very, very powerful for me. Life has to change and advance here and Page | 109

will and World Peace will also emerge into life in Earth's environment. Life has suffered here long enough. The suffering has been evolving out of Universal Consciousness and Earth's consciousness in a very powerful way for 10 years now since my body evolved into the Higgs field because I represent a reference point of evolutionary advancement here and my eternal love is evolving into Earth's consciousness and Universal Consciousness now and is getting more powerful every day. As the suffering continues to evolve out of Universal Consciousness and Earth's consciousness what will happen is both will evolve and advance and then life here will begin experiencing this process.

About Sean: I've been writing extensively in Metaphysics for about six years now. The primary reason that started me on this literary endeavor was when I heard about the shift in consciousness. I have always sought out and tried to incorporate spirituality in my life to enhance my experience here. I guess you could say I've been an explorer of divinity. In 2010 I saw the photograph taken by NASA of the cross in the core of the Whirlpool galaxy. In 2012 I heard about the discovery of the Higgs boson. I knew there was a correlation between the two and the shift in consciousness that I had been researching and writing about. Since that time I've have utilized different aspects of subject matter pertaining to science and divinity to formulate important and powerful conclusions on what philosopher Thomas Kuhn referred to as the Paradigm shift. I have just finished a book called "Earth's Miracle Through The Paradigm Shift" which I am seeking publication now. I feel as though my unique approach in writing have defined the shift in consciousness in a very spectacular way, that can appeal to a broad range of audiences considering the diversity of the subject matter I include in my conclusions.

Channeling

Channeling is a natural form of communication between humans and ascended masters, angelic beings, nature spirits, or non-physical entities. A channeler is very similar to a language translator or interpreter. They allow themselves to sense the non-verbal communication from another being and then translate it into human words.

Channeling is often defined as the act of allowing a spiritual entity (e.g., angel, archangel, ascended master, guide, deceased loved one) to merge, join, or enter your body and use your vocal cords to communicate directly with those on the Earth plane or provide knowledge and the channeler can write down the shared information. For some people who channel, the entity will also move the channeler’s body (e.g., open your eyes, move your arms/legs, have you walk around).

Channeling can be done in two different ways: Conscious channeling is done while being fully aware of what is happening, including being able to stop the experience at any time. The channeler can remember what was said to varying degrees. Often conscious channels will say that they hear themselves speaking as if they were at a distance . . . as if they were listening from another room. When told about what was said, they often feel as if they are remembering a dream. There are many people currently alive on the Earth plane who consciously channel. For example, Esther Hicks brings through the Page | 112

group of entities that refer to themselves as Abraham (no relation to the Old Testament). They speak about the Law of Attraction.

Trance channeling is channeling done while in a deep trance state.

Arguably one of the most famous trance channelers was Edgar Cayce. He was referred to as “The Sleeping Prophet” because he only channeled when he was in a deep trance state. This meant that he lost all muscle tone and had to be lying down. He was also unable to remember what he said, which meant that his secretary had to be present to take dictation and then transcribe the notes from the channeling session.

Our channelers are providing their information to help us on our path. _________________

"Break Free" By Dianne Robbins

A Message from the Crystal People: Dearest Folk on Earth, We are the Crystal People, encased in crystal bodies, waiting deep underground to make your connection to our souls. Yes, we do have souls, as all elements are alive, awake and conscious of the world around them, all vibrating at various degrees of alertness.

Our depth is the cause for our clarity and brilliance of light, for we capture the heartbeat of Mother Earth, and it pulses within our encasement and sheen of pure crystal. We wait here silently, as surface folk go about their business of hurrying and scurrying about to make a ‘living’ for their very existence, when our existence just is, and we do nothing to stay alive, but bask in the Creator’s heartbeat deep within the Earth. It is this heartbeat that generates all we need, and gives us the nutrition, although we don’t ‘eat’ as you do, that we need for our growth.

Our advice to you is to connect to the Creator’s heartbeat, through the Earth herself, and you will be fed the food you need for your light body to vibrate at the Creator’s frequency rather

Page | 114

than the low beat of surface dwellers struggling for existence.

All is provided for you, you just forgot. Again, we mention the Anastasia books where she connects fully to the Earth and Nature Kingdoms and is provided with all she needs on every level.

We watch you from below, and yes, we can clearly see you all, as impossible as you may think this is, for our eyes are not like yours, and we see through our light substance that we are made of. We see beyond what you couldn’t imagine is possible – and we hear all that occurs on and in the Earth, for we are great receptors and great beacons of Light, although our bodies are small and diminutive compared to yours. It is not the size that counts, but the frequency of the Being that is encased in the body form. It is consciousness and frequency, and they go together to form the various degrees of Light that emanates from a body.

Bodies are just shells that hold Light, until we all move into our Light bodies that have no denseness surrounding them. As the frequency of Earth rises, humans are shedding their density and slowly rising in consciousness, becoming more and more aware of the Nature Kingdom around them. For you have all been living in a zoo, so to speak, just the opposite of what you created by keeping animals locked up. Well, you have been the ones locked up, with a fence surrounding your senses, keeping you away from the rest of the Nature Kingdom that is free outside the parameters of your perceptual fence that keeps you chained up inside, while we roam freely outside all around you, and you can’t even see us, hear us or feel our presence. You are the ones locked up in a zoo, while we are free.

So break your shackles and break out of your self-imposed prison cells, and break free of your mental constraints and meet us now – we are just a step away – and we have been waiting for you for eons of time. It is just a mental prison, a mental zoo you have enclosed yourselves in, and we are here to assist you to break free so that you can mingle with us all – all of Nature is waiting Page | 115

for you, and all of Nature is calling to you to BE WITH US NOW…we are all part of you…and you are part of ALL. Well, what is keeping you back? Step outdoors and acknowledge our existence and acknowledge all the life teeming around you, just waiting for you to say ‘hello’.

We are abundant in stores around you…so go on a ‘shopping spree’ and buy us, and adorn your bodies with our magical glow, and hold us close to your heart, talking to us and caressing our smooth encasements that hold our great Light which we freely give to you.

Our message to you today is to BREAK FREE OF YOUR ZOOLIKE EXISTENCE and merge with the life-forms teeming around you. There are hundreds of various forms of Elementals, Faeries, Gnomes, Elves all around you, busily working with the Trees, flowers, plants, grasses, and animals. They are literally surrounding you. They are in every garden, around every Tree.

Just be aware of their existence and they will come into focus for you, and you will begin to feel their presence. Oh my, you are ‘not alone’ at all. If only you could see through ‘our eye’, you would be so surprised. Nor are you alone in the Universe, as some so foolishly believe.

One of the immutable Laws of Life is that we are never alone in existence. To exist, we must be part of the Whole. So we ask that you step into your ‘part’ now, which is the ‘whole’, and commune with us where you will be privy to all of existence and take your rightful place again by being consciously connected to the chain linking all life.

You broke the link. But you can re-connect it through your heart’s call. Just ask, and it is done.

Although we leave you for now, we never sever the connection.

Our line always remains open, and so must yours. It is called ‘the life-line’ in human vernacular, isn’t it? We bid you to keep the Page | 116

‘life-line’ open, since it is your life, and you do want to continue it, don’t you? Well, you cannot do it alone, so bond with us now, and we will guide you unerringly every step of the way, right back to the Creator’s heart center, located inside you. No distance to travel. It has always been with you. It is you. So claim your divinity now, and you can merge with us in an instant.

We are the Forces of Light…We are the Crystal People stationed underground and we travel as one…Always. May your thoughts fly our way. Good day.

"Master Every Moment? No Way." By Jim Self

At the beginning of this course, long before I knew it would be a course, Ascended Master Kuthumi told me that it is necessary (i.e. required) for me to be masterful of every thought, every emotion, every action … every moment. I swallowed hard and nodded, not sure how this was even possible and very clear it was far out of my reach. As my relationship with the Teachers of Light evolved over the years, however, I learned it is possible, though it requires personal commitment and focused attention. My attention had to be on my intention to live this path these wise elders laid out.

Most people living in the third dimension have no understanding or experience with that skill. We are, instead, programmed to react to the noise and drama of the world around us. Mastering your attention point is one of the things that will help you step out of the third dimension and into the higher-dimensional way of life. The following are some notes that will fill out this Page | 124

understanding.

Shifting your attention point without “going to” Going to is the action of moving your attention away from your centre in order to observe something. Your friend says, “Oh, look at that interesting shape over there.” And instead of staying on your internal observation deck, you leave the Centre of Your Head, move through multiple layers of third-dimensional noise and mentally “go to” the shape. As you leave your point of observation to experience that shape over there, you’re no longer balanced and aligned within your field. You have wandered away from yourself. “Going to” causes a wobble in your perception and in your experience of the thing you’re observing. What you see is distorted because you are not viewing it from your balanced internal point of observation. What you might observe from the Centre of Your Head as a red circle instead becomes a green square when you move through all the third-dimensional noise to see the shape. What makes “going to” additionally disruptive is that when you finally return to the Centre of Your Head or Higher Mind, you must again pass through all those multiple layers of third-dimensional noise, thoughts and emotions.

Returning to the Centre of Your Head or Higher Mind requires focused attention to disengage from what you “went to” (that shape over there). In other words, when you return your attention to the original point of observation, your awareness has been distorted by the noise between you and what you “went to”.

Many of the negative beliefs and emotions we hold are created when we leave the body and “go to” a point outside of ourselves and then draw a conclusion that then leads us to believe “something is wrong” or “I am not okay”. For example: You tell a joke. At first, the person doesn’t get it. You see the confused expression on their face and move your attention over into their space. When you return to your own head you conclude they don’t think you’re funny and you should never tell another joke.

In the meantime, they have started to laugh but because of your previous conclusion, you now believe they are laughing at you Page | 125

instead of at the joke. This leads you to decide you should never tell another joke.

Many of the thoughts you hold that cause you to be uncertain about yourself are incorrect. However, you believe those thoughts to be true because you have not been trained to be balanced, grounded and observe from the Centre of Your Head.

When you remain in, and observe life from, the Centre of Your Head or Higher Mind, you more clearly see what you’re observing without getting engaged or being affected by the noise and emotion of “going to”. Viewing life from your observation deck, and not moving to what is outside of you, allows you greater balance, ease and choice; you no longer need to move back and forth or work to untangle your attention point and regain your balance.

Understanding this concept and learning not to “go to” is one of the most important concepts you will ever learn. Mastering this skill is required for living in the fifth dimension. Experiencing the higher layers of thought also requires this skill.

(This is an excerpt from the book, A Course in Mastering Alchemy. by Jim Self and Roxane Burnett) About Jim Self: The co-founder of A Course in Mastering Alchemy, and an international speaker and author, Jim Self has been leading seminars and teaching healing, clairvoyance and personal energy management courses since 1980.

Since childhood, he has retained a conscious awareness and ability to recall his experiences within the sleep state. Over the last twelve years, this awareness has expanded into relationships with the Archangels, Ascended Masters and Teachers of Light.

The tools and information presented in the Mastering Alchemy programs is a co-creation of these relationships.

"Seeking Peace and Serenity From Within" By Ronna Vezane

Beloved masters, as we monitor your progress, measure the “Light Quotient” of your thought patterns, and observe how valiant and stalwart you are in your endeavors to integrate the wondrous energies of Creator-consciousness, we are most gratified, as well as amazed, at your astounding progress. The maelstrom of negative thought forms that have swirled throughout the three lower astral planes, and which have affected humanity for eons of time, are gradually being replaced by uplifting thought forms of hope, inspiration, joy. This will allow the reality that scarcity is only an imbalanced, negative thought form, which can be replaced with an assurance that abundance is everyone’s Divine birthright. All you have to do in order to claim your heritage is to accept as your truth that you Page | 128

are worthy, and then to solidify that reality via your positive thoughts, deeds and actions.

A wondrous new vision, a powerful probable future for humanity and the Earth, is awaiting your entrance into a Fifth-Dimensional environment. It is being strengthened and magnified moment by moment. It is a future whereby all humanity, as well as the mineral, vegetable, animal, human, Devic and Elemental kingdoms will peacefully co-exist on Earth. Envision an Earth which is pristine in its beauty, and which has sparkling clear water and clean healthy air to breathe. It will be a world of abundance and plenty, whereby no one will suffer from lack of adequate food, shelter or opportunity. It will be a world whereby different races, cultures, beliefs and traditions are honored and respected - where no one tries to force his/her beliefs on others, or deny others the right to live their own truths and follow their own customs.

As more and more of you slowly withdraw your attention and thoughts from the self-limiting thought patterns of old, they are gradually dissolving and becoming ineffectual. Have we not told you over and over again, “your thoughts have energy – positive or negative – and what you focus on, you magnify”?

Many of you are so caught up in the desire to ascend, and to live in a perceived paradise of the higher dimensions, you are forgetting and neglecting the beauty, joy and the benefits of experiencing the magnificence and wonder of the journey. Each phase of new awareness or expanded consciousness has its special miracles and benefits, which are to be savored and enjoyed. Each time you release some old self-limiting, painful thought form, habit or discordant energies within, you are transformed, and you remove a small (or large) part of your disguise, which allows you to integrate another Facet of your wondrous God Self. In doing so, you are gradually creating a new empowered you, and a new reality opens to you whereby you have access to many new concepts, as well as many new talents, and your sensitivity to the exquisite nuances of Spirit Page | 129

miraculously unfolds around you.

Those of you who have followed our teachings over the years are aware that the major theme for the Spirit/human experience on planet Earth has been separation, duality and polarity, with an ultimate goal of returning to balance, harmony and oneness with your multi-dimensional Self, and unity consciousness with ALL. Each of you fragmented your Divine Self into hundreds of individual Sparks of consciousness as you ventured forth to fulfill the Divine Mandate of the Creator, “Go forth and create new worlds without end in my name.” Along the way many of you forgot that there is a Universal Law that states, “You must experience that which you have created.”

The great multitude of seekers who have moved back onto the path, which leads to harmony and a reunion with Spirit, have primarily done so because each of you were tired of the pain and suffering of the past. And so, your Soul-self finally got your attention so that you were ready to listen to the whisperings of Spirit. Those of you who have diligently sought your higher truth, and have striven to live and exemplify that truth, are now reaping the rewards. You are learning that you are in control, and you are not being tossed around by the whims of fate. You are not being punished or rewarded by anyone, for you have realized that you are responsible for your thoughts and actions, and you create your own reality – ALL OF IT! – via the harmonious or discordant frequency patterns you emit. You have finally realized that you are not surrendering anything, but when you align your will with the Creator’s Will, you make way for unlimited miracles and possibilities to enter your life.

We have discussed in depth about bringing all the Facets of your multiple chakra system back into harmony, and the importance of integrating and balancing the virtues, qualities and attributes of the Rays of God-Consciousness. If any one Facet of your Being is out of balance, none of the others can function at its maximum potential. You are meant to be a composite Spiritual/human Page | 130

being with a unified consciousness. In most human beings, the physical senses and desires of the body have overridden the more subtle senses of their spiritual nature.

A person who lives mostly in a mental world is lacking or missing out on the wonders, strength and delight of the heart, refined emotions and the Soul. A person who is driven by his/her emotions is living in an unstable world, which has no foundation or structure, and is susceptible to the emotional highs and lows of everyday occurrences and those around him/her. A person who has disconnected from Spirit lives a life without hope, and no matter what he/she may attain or accumulate in the physical world, he/she lives an existence that does not sustain the Soul, a life without the luster of lasting, heart-felt gratification.

Humanity has focused on the emotions of spirit for thousands of years, and has neglected the science or mental aspects of spirituality.

The Universe and all creation function under the immutable Universal Laws as decreed by the Supreme Creator. Know the laws and live in harmony with them, and you will exist in alignment with Creator Will. As a result, you may be assured that all the beauty, bounty and abundance of the Universe will be yours for the taking.

Returning to harmony and balance within what we call the four lower bodily systems, physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual, is the next vital step after coming to an understanding about the energies, qualities and attributes of each chakra and how they affect the four bodily systems.

It is imperative that you stimulate and work on your emotional intelligence and your mental intuition. You need to redefine your altered ego-desire body, and re-establish the proper relationship between your ego and your Soul-self. The ego was designed to function under the direction of the Soul, not the other way around, whereby you are to focus your attention on your inner world of reality instead of the illusion of the outer world. You Page | 131

will no longer look for some event, some person or something to give you a moment’s satisfaction or happiness – things that are usually fleeting, and often fall short of your expectations. When you turn inward to validate your self-worth and to feed your emotional and spiritual yearnings, you will tap into that wellspring of unlimited sustenance.

Many of you have chosen to experience strong First, Third or Fifth Ray energies, which often lead to a tendency to function almost exclusively within the left (mental) hemisphere of the brain structure, with a linear, outward focused, analytical mindset. A major focus of your life’s lessons is to learn to use the abstract / emotional right brain structure, and to explore and integrate the emotional facets of your nature.

Second Ray people are apt to be more balanced in their bodily nature, whereby they explore and use both the right and left hemispheres of the brain, but this is not always the case.

However, those who have chosen to experience and balance the Fourth, Sixth and Seventh Rays during this lifetime are inclined to function mostly within the right brain structure, and they tend to be very emotional in nature. Their world is often perceived as an emotional roller coaster, and it is very difficult to find a balance or to live a harmonious existence.

Your goal is to blend and harmonize the major bodily chakras of your physical being– to balance your mental and emotional energy fields and OverLight them with your Spiritual Essence.

We will define each category so that you may quickly identify what you need to focus on and rectify.

MENTAL BODY FOCUS * When the mental body is the major focus, your beliefs, attitudes, and knowledge are derived from text book and historical/traditional facts without the benefit of emotional or spiritual validation. You tend to be very analytical, often rigid, judgmental, and you must maintain intellectual control. You have limited visionary abilities, and you only believe what is tangible and what can be proven scientifically.

Page | 132

EMOTIONAL BODY FOCUS * When the emotional body is the driving force within you, you are vulnerable to the strong emotional tide of the mass consciousness and your altered ego.

You must examine and discover how your emotions drive and control you through your desires and wants, and you must closely examine your motives.

MENTAL BODY with SPIRITUAL BODY OVERLIGHT * You have learned to utilize the wisdom of your superconscious mind as you integrate all the attributes, qualities and virtues of your God Ray and Soul Ray, and you have learned to focus on the Still Point of the NOW. You have perfected the process of healing the past, scripting the future, and living in the power of the moment.

EMOTIONAL BODY with SPIRITUAL BODY OVERLIGHT * As the mental and emotional bodies are harmonized, you will have learned to rely on your mental intuition as you seek to validate and integrate the higher truths you are accessing in your neverending quest for en-Lighten-ment. You validate your truths through your heart/Soul monitor, and then you live by those truths to the best of your ability. New expanded thoughts and concepts become the norm.

EMOTIONAL/MENTAL BODY UNITY = EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE * The emotional energetics you radiate along with your focused intent are some of the most important components in the creation process. When there is a balance of power between your emotional and mental bodies, you begin the process of understanding yourself, and you learn to identify the driving force behind your actions. You learn to harmonize your will with God’s Will as you begin to understand the workings of the Universal Laws. The desired mode is emotional detachment, as you move gracefully and surely toward your desired goal.

SPIRITUAL/MENTAL BODY CONSCIOUSNESS * When you begin to use the intelligence of your Soul-Self, you tap into the unlimited possibilities of the Cosmic Stream of Divine Light. You learn how to bypass the distortions of the Third/Fourth Page | 133

Dimensions as you create and use your Pyramid of Power/Light in the Fifth Dimension. That is when the miracles truly begin to happen, and you will know without any doubt that you are partnering with Spirit in all your endeavors.

SPIRITUAL/EMOTIONAL BODY CONSCIOUSNESS * Love tempers your emotions, and although you still have a human nature, you have learned discernment, and you become detached from all the negative life drama going on around you. You now view the events in your life from a higher vantage point – that of a Self-master.

HARMONIZED SPIRITUAL/MENTAL/EMOTIONAL/PHYSICAL CONSCIOUSNESS * You derive nurturance from your indwelling Spirit, and from our Father/Mother God via your God Ray. You stop looking outside yourself for validation of your self-worth.

You no longer experience the sharp highs and lows as you move into a state of joy or bliss. You learn to live in the world, surrounded by a sphere of higher frequency Love/Light that you have created, as you expand your consciousness to incorporate the great variety of multi-dimensional expressions now available to you.

You are now living in an ascended state of consciousness as you unite with the multiple Facets of your God Self. You move out of a state of becoming into a state of BEING. You have developed clear-seeing and pure intention, and the fog of illusion no longer affects you. You mold and create your greatest visions and desires from the storehouse of Divine unmanifested potential, and you live in harmony with all Creation.

You develop an unerring assurance that you can have or become anything you can envision, if you are willing to put forth the effort to accomplish your goals. You have learned to rely on your angelic helpers, and you gain strength and sustenance from their presence. You will then be seen and defined as a unified, radiant SPIRITUAL BEING IN HUMAN FORM. Page | 134

Brave hearts, we can offer you tools and knowledge, and we can encourage and inspire you; however, you must be willing to turn the knowledge into wisdom, and take the necessary action to reclaim your Divinity and the glorified state that awaits you. I am your faithful companion on the journey, and you are loved beyond measure. I AM Archangel Michael.

TRANSMITTED THROUGH RONNA VEZANE * STAR*QUEST* www.StarQuestMastery.com RONNA / SACRED SCRIBE CREATOR ESSENCE ** ENERGY FIELDS OF LIGHT IN PYRAMIDAL FORM: Our Father-Mother God, the Elohim, and the Archangels created living Pyramids of Light within every level of Creation so that we may access the White Fire Memory Seed Atoms of life (Adamantine Particles of Creator Essence). These life-giving forms give access to the frequencies of Light, which are necessary components of transformation so that we, as human beings, may return to a state of higher consciousness – our Divine State.

ETHERIC BODY: The golden etheric web contains the perfect blueprint for the human body – it is the invisible replica of the physical body, which is also known as the astral body or etheric body. It contains the perfect blueprint for our three lower physical bodies. It sustains and vitalizes the material form, and it controls the digestive and assimilation processes. It also repairs the damages in the physical form caused by the “wear and tear” of living. The etheric body is the memory body, and it is susceptible to our thoughts and emotions – both positive and negative.

Disease or debilitation occurs first in the etheric body, and then gradually infiltrates into the physical vessel. It is also true that the balancing and harmonizing of the physical vessel begins within the etheric body, and then gradually manifest in the physical body.

Page | 135

OUR MENTAL BODY IS A TRINITY OF CONSCIOUSNESS CONSISTING OF: The conscious mind, which is composed of the intuitive right brain hemisphere, and the linear thinking, reasoning, analytical left brain hemisphere. The mind controls the brain, which was designed to be an extension of the superconscious mind and our OverSoul/Higher Self.

The subconscious mind or our subjective mind records and stores everything we experience: what we see, hear, think and feel emotionally. The subconscious mind takes everything literally. It does not matter if we have experienced an event or just imagined it vividly; the subconscious mind registers it as a fact. That is why it is so important to change negative, debilitating past memories into positive memories. Our thoughts and intent resonate to specific frequencies, and by changing the frequency patterns we project through the use of will power and conscious effort, we can create the life, physical health and circumstances we desire.

The superconscious mind: As we raise our frequency patterns and vibrational field of consciousness, we are able to tap into higher and higher levels of Creator-consciousness. The superconscious mind has a direct flow of wisdom from the Divine Mind, once we have cleared the static and distortions from the column of Light that connects us to our Higher Self and to our OverSoul / Higher Self and our Fifth-Dimensional Sacred Triad.

Beloved friends: During these stressful times of dramatic change, chaos and turmoil, it is more important than ever that we stay HEART CENTERED AND SOUL FOCUSED. The thoughts we think and the emotions we feel create the cause and effect or karmic reactions in our worldly experience. When we raise our vibrational patterns and return to harmony within our emotional and mental bodies, we step off the wheel of karma and move into a State of Grace. Over the years, I have integrated more and more of beloved AA Michael’s words of wisdom into my “memory bank of knowledge.” This has helped Page | 136

me tremendously in understanding my own “idiosyncracies and dis-empowering habits” so that I now have the wisdom and tools to gradually become the “master of my destiny.” My fervent wish is that these “wisdom teachings” will assist you to move forward gracefully on the path of en-Lighten-ment.

Forever love and angel blessings, Ronna About Ronna: She teaches a common sense approach to the basic principles of spirituality.

"Door to the Past is Closing" By Kate Spreckley

As we prepare to enter a new year, the incoming energies are inviting us to sever any remaining ties and old patterns that keep us stuck and or attached to the past. At the same time, we are still aligning with and integrating the intense energetic shift that occurred with the Solstice. As result, many feel as if they are riding a pendulum and swinging between feelings of excitement and joy to old feelings of fear, worry and anxiety.

Be mindful that in these final days of 2021 you are being finetuned and readied for the coming year. As such you can expect strong emotions and feelings to surface. Be willing to allow these deep emotions to surface and flow. Honour your process and recognise that something is ending and that the door to the past is closing.

"Channeled Monthly Message" By Sage Walker

As is my tradition I tuned into the 2022 energy. It felt wonderful, flowing and free. I just kept smiling so here is the energy and a message from Spirit.

As we enter into 2022 I feel the energy of hesitation because I sense it will be different and there will be changes and the old me has sometimes been wary of change. As I release resistance I feel freedom and overwhelming JOY. The energy lightens and expands and I feel wonderful with so much joy.

(As I write this the old me is scriptable but I take a breath and rerun to the moment.) As I breathe I feel the energy in my core expanding. It makes me smile as it flows gently out of me giving me more energy at the same time. It makes me smile as it is released The energy of this year is CREATIVE FLOW. When we are in that flow life works easily. It is a higher vibration than normal and feels different and fast moving.

That is now part of what we must do. Accept what is different, be responsible, be love and peaceful as you stay in the creative flow. It is a year of guidance within this creative flow.

Page | 141

As I feel this year’s energy it is loving, open and radiant.

Expect good things.

Be always in the CREATIVE FLOW of life moment by moment.

Through all of this I kept smiling and felt great joy.

Ellen Gans, Psychic Medium Rockford Office Complex 1777 Penfield Rd Penfield, NY 14526 https://ellengans.com ReadingsByEsg@gmail.com Facebook: @EllenGans34 Instagram: EllenGansPsychic When I was a child I told my mother her brother was mapping stars in heaven. I could see him at his desk with all his art supplies around him and his pipe in his mouth. I knew he was telling me about his job in heaven. He crossed over in 1965, I was 6 years old. This clairvoyant vision let me know that our Loved Ones are around us and can communicate with us. It is the foundation for my work with the Universe and Spirit, conveying messages and information to you.

Connecting to the Energies of the Soul is what I do. Bringing messages and information to you using words that offer comfort, healing and help answer questions. The metaphysical community has its own terminology that often times can be confusing and intimating to the everyday person. With that knowledge my approach is not to dazzle you. Instead I use everyday words that will connect to you.
