Be thankful this day for the Importance of Self.

We all know and comprehend how important we are through our life role, yet it is our life defining our character. The character or person we choose to be in this life is to serve all of humanity, but we have to grow into the desired person. We are born ready to be this higher being, but what are the steps to getting there? The steps/choices are already made for us, yet there are some circle paths veering us off track, and leading us back on the main path. As our life progresses, we understand the choices made to be important to the whole of humanity. All of us at one point or another was or still is filled with ego, that we get caught in a trap of "no one is better than me". Humanity is one energetic force working in unison. No one is better than no one; it is the ego feeding the emotions of the moment signaling to the brain "I am the best!"  Yes we believe we are the best, because there is no current proof to show otherwise. As a sprinter in high school, I was always told by my coach, “there was always someone better than you.” In the world of competition, a Darwinian world, this is true, someone will always be better than you; this is a world we are moving away from. We are living in a world moving towards peace and harmony. The question now becomes how do we detach our ego and live in an internal place of true importance of self?
 

Where does our importance of self come from? Does it come from the desire for attention? Basically this is want the ego is, feeding the desire for attention in any form it can receive. The attention can be introverted or extroverted. We can be so shy as to those around us will pay us attention or so bold where people will gawk at us, in any case presented, we draw attention to us. That is how we feel self-important, by attaching a title or label to self or a situation. The importance of self is the awaking to knowing how important each individual is and humbly accept their role and who they are, with love. This is at times difficult to see or understand, because we become blind to what was asked for or given to us. This reason is why we are blind, because we have attached self to the "how our desire will appear to us". Our attention is so focused on what we desire to feel important, we miss what is truly there.  Our importance is not solely placed on who we are, but what we can contribute to world.
 
Our contribution is one of love. All we have to do is fill our hearts with love and acceptance. How can we perform such an action when we have been taught otherwise? This is where we have to deprogrammed all we learned and replace it new loving experiences. This is a process of "doing the work". We have to analyze our life to see how our life purpose/role fits into the quilt of humanity. We are much more than what we pretend to be. Even I had difficulties accepting my role in humanity as being a beacon of light for others. This was a role gradually stepped into. When there is a feeling of not being ready or prepared, we are more ready and prepared, than we truly know. We are more than we perceive. Our brain/ego gets in the way, tricking us; by saying we have more work to do. When we arrive at this point in our life, we have to live by faith and courage to know this is who are and this is what we are to do.
 
Who we are solely depends on our comment to live up to and honor the choices made in our life, with love. We must do the work! Our intuition guides us as to what we are to do. If we stand by the choices made, then we know we are honoring our comment. We are now more than ever being asked to make the choice and honor the role asked for in this life. Our life is one of transition and transformation. Each life moment transitions to the next seamlessly, while manifesting change within. It is when become consciously aware of the transformations, breakthroughs happens and living to our full potential. Remember we all have the choice to be stagnant or kinetic in the flow of life.

Our flow exist because, we are naturally flowing entities. We can be in the flow of giving and receiving, the flow of love, the flow of life itself. Our life consists of flows. When we are in the flow of life all is understood and nothing is taken for granted. In the flow, we know and humbly accept all transpiring acts. Most acts taking place are one of lessons, letting go, and of growth. The flow helps us to realize how important we are to the oneness of humanity, intuitively knowing we are all connected from one Source. When this understanding is reached as a whole, then we individually know how important we are to the rest of civilization and humanity as one.
 
Be thankful this day and everyday to define self through the role and work chosen to complete in this life.
Be thankful this day and everyday for the contributions made to civilization and humanity.
Be thankful this day and everyday for the transformations made to live and honor all comments. 
 
Confession

Feeling the emotional sting love more than admitted
the strength of face to save for others to see
having a desire
a longing to weep
 
Wanting to cry but unable
shed too many tears for lovely souls returning home
shed tears for hope
maybe my tear ducts is a desert
 
What is a soul to do when a sweet release of a tear can't run down to a frown
seeking outlets
seeking time
seeking peace
seeking me
 
My admition of wanting to feel in a world feeling nothing
compassion for the weak in one in the same for the strong who holds all eyes

I am afraid to be hurt again through emotional love
yet have courage to love self as intended
unconditionally
 
Delirium a temporary serum saving sanctity
a place where direction is lost
commune to the oneness that is
accepting the vibration
the frequency given and received
guiding the way back to the land of IS

All falling to the way side from the blind void
no longer full and realigned
this is me
 
A confession of the life living
fatigued
stressed
frustrated
renewed
released
focused
filled with vigor and purpose
my soul

I confess to self to honor self
love
courage
acceptance
this is my way
these are my words the vibration I speak
resonate and echoes to shatter the old to birth a new
I confess...

Channeler: Gaia's Daughter of Truth

Take the time to ground and center yourself. To clear and/or smudge yourself. To feel the peace. Feel your (inner) peace.

Mind you, it may be challenging for many of you to sense that peace. It seems a little restless or edgy. Barely there.

Still, peaces comes naturally to some of you, enveloping you fully.

The more you schedule quiet times for yourself during the day, the easier it becomes to shield yourself from any dense emotion coming from others (fear, anger, grief, anguish...). Maintaining your center as well as knowing what is yours (emotions, memories, thoughts), what belongs to others and what is a part of the collective (as in the entire human race and the culture, race, religion... you belong to) is also easier.

Often you forget that you are so much more than yourself. Your spirit or soul carries so much. You remember most of what happened to you in this life, but not not necessarily in others. And your family nucleus also holds many cycles and memories.

These are very active times. Clearing and shedding are happening at rapid rates, and tend to be quite intense. For some of you, this process started quite a few years ago, and you may (or may not) have been fully aware of what was going on. It is possible you are holding on to "things" that should have been released long ago.

If you have a daily practice of grounding and centering and your life remains off centre, it is very likely that all the dense emotions you are feeling are directly or indirectly yours. These can stem from your current life or your lives of long, long ago and need to be released.

Perhaps fear or anger is preventing you to release everything that has been coming up.

Something is making you hold on to parts of the old you or parts of previous yous (including collective events that were or are part of you). Mind you, this may very well be unconscious.

Even if it seems irrational, it is possible that at some level you fear you will no longer be yourself or that you will be a lesser you if you let these things go, for they somehow have been such an integral part of who you are, of your journey, even of your drive to bring about changes into this world.

Releasing often leads to all kinds of change, most usually for the better. Still, you may believe you need all these heavy memories to shine your light, even if they take a lot of room and energy.

We are not saying that your are refusing to change for yourself. Sometimes you see quite clearly what needs to be done, but you are afraid to leave loved ones behind as you evolve.

If any of these statements apply to you, take some time to reflect on what or who could be holding you back on a subconscious level.

For instance, are you unwilling to forgive past wrongs? (either done to you or that you did to others - forgiving others or yourself).

Do parts of you refuse to stop being angry towards someone for example? No matter how hurtful his or her actions may have been, it may not have been intentional. Sometimes people are so overwhelmed by their own pain and suffering that they are totally unaware of/blind to the impact of their actions on others. Never mind how much you suffered then, what good does holding on to that grief or anger do for you now?

You deserve some peace, joy and serenity. How about letting go what no longer serves you so you have room to bring the high vibration energies/emotions in? Yes, your spirit is immense, but you still need to make room for the new and beautiful. It is harder to find the beauty and the joy in yourself (and in others) when there is so much junk laying around.

Remember that lack of self-love manifests in a myriad of ways. We are not necessarily referring to you, but to those around you: friends, family, colleagues, strangers. So many acts are not "personally" aimed at you.

Everybody is reacting to their own releases and activations differently. If you think it is rough for you, have a thought for those whose eyes are closed, who have absolutely no clue that anything bigger than them is happening. How lost/scared do you think they feel? Especially if they are going through some of the physical symptoms of the "detoxification".

Letting go of all dense emotions and memories will not only help you, it will help others. They will see that there is light at the end of the tunnel. They will realize it gets better. And thanks to you, their eyes may open a little to the vastness of what is and find a way to embrace the occuring changes.

Another reason why it is important for you to be willing to let go of events/feelings/thoughts from the past Earthlings, is to allow the energy to move freely, to flow.

Another thing that could be happening is your ego has somehow found a way to run your show. Sending you all sorts of sabotaging thoughts and memories that will make you want to hold on to the dense emotions for dear life.

The ego has its purpose, We have touched upon this before - it is actually quite helpful as a very secondary role. In a way, your ego helps prevent people from stepping all over you.

Just remember that when the ego sneaks in from backstage and tricks you into becoming the star, then you are not really yourself.

Let us put it another way. your higher self wants you to be the best version of you that you can be. It wants you to shine your light bright because it knows the unique gifts you have to bring to this Earth.

The ego just wants more room for itself. It is like a child who refuses to share. The ego simply wants what is "best" for itself, even if it not in your best interest. It cares very little about you. But you need it. And you need to keep it in check.

Pain and suffering is normal as you grow and evolve. However, it should be minimal. Yes, it happens, for a few days in a row here and there, but it is not meant to be experienced for long periods of time. There is no gain to be made in constant, long-term suffering.

Yes, discomfort is part of the process, but it is more like a bump on the road, it is not the road itself.

Do you see what we mean?

If it persists, it should be checked and fixed, like a faulty suspension that makes your car travels unpleasant. And just like when you have car problems and you go to the garage to get it fixed, sometimes you need help to move things through. That is OK.

Yes, you need time alone. That does not mean you have to go through it alone. There is a big difference between the two. Being self-gentle and self-loving means getting support and guidance when you need it.

Suffering is not the end-goal, growth is. The quicker you move through the pain, the faster you will achieve the gain.

While it may be challenging for you to accept this right now, there will come a time where you will experience some discomfort, but no pain or suffering. Actually, you will feel peace, serenity and joy that will trump the discomfort. The Messenger can vouch for that.

So if you are deep in a dark tunnel, let that be your light that will help you find your way to get help and go beyond whatever it is you are going through.

As your release, detoxify or purge, whatever happens to you, just allow yourself to feel and release - provided that you are safe/in a safe environment - if you are in an unsafe or dangerous situation, please do what you must to take care of yourself and head to safety - that includes getting medical care if physical or mental/emotional ailments last too long.

Yes, physical symptoms accompany growth, but if they last too long or change (aggravate), something else could have happened along the way. Just be mindful that the traditional medical field may not fully be open to certain things and divulge what you feel is appropriate and necessary.

Assuming you are safe, if you are angry for instance, let the anger wash over you, feel the anger, then release it. If you need help getting it out of your system, drum, scream, punch a pillow, break some dishes, write everything down by hand on a piece of paper, then burn it.

The goal of "evolving" or growing is for you to free yourself, to feel free and be true: unconstricted, unrestricted. You are able to feel the energy and emotions flow through you seamlessly because you are open (free of any blockages or knots).

The dense emotions also flow through you provided you let them be without holding on to them. They are simply energy, just acknowledge them and let them go. Refusing to admit (if only to yourself) that you are disappointed, for instance, will harm you. The dense energy will stay stuck in you, and that will create further knots and blockages, like an inner dam or clogged pipes if you like.

Remember that it is OK to feel the entire range of emotions. You are allowed to be angry (or in joy) - use that energy for positive change, to make things right. Discard the emotion itself, the label it carries and just use that spark of energy the emotion holds to fuel you.

As long as you are human, you will experience all the human emotions. Mind you, the way in which you perceive these emotions will change.

Please be true to yourself, honour yourself. Nobody but you is allowed to tell you what you should or should not feel.

A lot of you experiencing grief/anger right now are simply remembering all the repressed emotions you have lived through in this life and others before that: either your own or ancestral (Almost all cultures, religions, races/people have experienced some sort of persecution or oppression at some time or another - now still - that is an extremely heavy load to carry. All of this is being released so you can get move towards better things.)

And since your society seems to accept some emotions more than others, and that acceptance is also gender-based, be aware that much of your release can manifest in the form least tolerated by your current gender.

For instance, it is acceptable for women to cry and "be emotional", so most repressed emotions or memories will often manifest through male-accepted emotions such as anger.

As for men, who have been shown it is OK to be mad or aggressive, then the "softer" emotions of hurt, sorrow... you know all the water based emotions that are easily/rapidly released with a good cry, well those emotions will surface more in males.

Call it balancing.

As We keep saying, be gentle to yourself. That includes feeling/ releasing emotions that society/ family/friends have denied you to feel. Allowing yourself to clear will help you lighten up. There is no need to feel so heavy. Shed all the extra invisible heaviness that weighs you down.

You are perfect as you are. What is imperfect is society's view of reality.

So please, take that quiet time for yourself. Give yourself permission to feel whatever it is you are feeling, acknowledge it, then RELEASE it to the Earth.

Prolonged pain or discomfort are not desired states. Such anguish dims your light. Be good to yourself. Ask for help if you have trouble getting rid of dense energies.

For it is only when you are experiencing peace and love that you are able to grow, evolve and make your world a better place. By that We mean bringing about positive change is almost impossible when you are feeling drained, ill, angry, frustrated... So lighten up your load and your mood.

Each and every one of you has something great to bring to this world.

Everything is always up to you. And that includes taking great care of yourself, of your needs first, and asking for help when you have trouble going over that bump on the road by yourself.

This is All

Much Light and Love to Everyone

a message from Stefanie Miller - A Magical World

Thursday, 29 September, 2011

So out of the blue a guy I had dated six months ago calls me yesterday to tell me how sorry he was for treating me poorly while we were seeing each other. Seems like a nice gesture, right? He goes on to say that now that he’s dating someone else and treats her so much better which made him realize how he could have done much better by me. He wasn’t sure why he behaved so badly toward me since he had really liked me and thought I was such a nice and wonderful person. It felt like a punch in the gut. Why didn’t he feel obliged at the time to treat me good if he had liked me so much?!

My ego said the problem is you’re just too nice! For now on don’t be so open! Once I got past that emotion my higher self said perhaps I don’t need to be so overly accommodating. My inner child craves attention and will accept whatever tidbits she gets. I didn’t grow up with my father and I have the typical “daddy issues” The fear of rejection, fear of abandonment and the tendency to attract men who are emotionally or physically unavailable, who undoubtedly live up to my self fulfilling prophecy! A perplexing cycle that I don’t care to repeat! I have worked diligently on releasing this pattern. I felt that phone call was a message from the Universe.
 

When I didn’t like the way this guy was treating me I got out of the relationship. We were only dating for a few months so I didn’t let it go on for too long. I know for next time to raise my standards even higher.  Experiencing self love and having self worth is a daily conscious practice. I’ve healed many dysfunctional family dynamics. There are many areas in my life that I am so grateful for, that are fulfilling and rich. Yet, there is this gaping, unhealed wound that I have to let go of and heal within myself.

In this lifetime I have not had the opportunity of experiencing a loving relationship with a man that treated me with love, respect and adoration. It’s something I have been praying for and affirming I will attract.  My dream is to be in a loving romantic relationship with a man that is kind and considerate. Someone I can trust and count on.

I am not going to stop being a nice and open person. That’s what makes me who I am. I enjoy nurturing and showing love to the people I care about. What I do realize is that I do not need to go overboard and be overly accommodating to the point of it not being reciprocal in nature or ignores my own needs. There is a part of me, that wounded inner child, who wants to prove to others that I am worthy and loveable. I go out of my way to win love and approval. I shouldn’t have to work that hard to show my good qualities! They are very evident… as my healthy, rational self can to attest to!

When I am feeling confident and in my divinity I know that I am all that and a bag of chips! Yet, when I am feeling needy of love and attention, the part of me that has unmet needs, allows the ego self to take over and she is hell bent on a quest to prove that she is loveable by bending over backwards and trying too hard to please. I avoid expressing my needs or speaking up until I am overly upset when I don’t like what someone is doing (or not doing!) rather than speaking up and not caring whether I’m rejected or not to get my needs met and be heard.

The message from the Universe came through loud and clear. I reaffirm that I am worthy of love, adoration, and respect. The energies we are in are intense. It’s time to lay claim to our divinity and squash out any lower vibrating aspects of ourselves that may remain. I have worked hard on myself for many years, as many of us on the spiritual path have done. As one layer comes up for healing, thus there is another   that needs tending to. We are entering a profound period where we must be operating from our divinity in order to hold the energy so those who are still battling with their egos can awaken through the major earth shifts and changes that are occurring and finally embrace their divinity. We must be the change we want to see!

It is time to completely let go of old patterns, negative thoughts, and lower vibrating energies that hold us down and hold us back. All the shackles, all the cobwebs, and all the old ways must once and for all be purged. We must know who we really are. We must hold the highest vibrations of self love, self confidence, and self esteem. Our guides and guardians are cheering us on as we anchor in this new energy and really own it, and lay claim to our magnificence.

We are always asking for signs on our path and they sometimes come in unexpected ways. They have a tendency to grab hold of us and shake us awake (into mindfulness). What we choose to do with the messages we receive are up to us. Do we ignore the phone call or use it as a wake up call?

Prayer

Dear God,

There was a time in my life that I undervalued my worth. I didn’t have confidence in myself and therefore I allowed others to treat me with disrespect. I didn’t know any better. Through the years I have learned to set higher standards for myself. I have grown to love and respect myself. Please show me how to stay in my divine power at all times and never give it away to others.

For all the growth I have achieved there are still times when my wounded inner child sabotages my best efforts. Shine your golden light on the places and spaces within me that need healing and fill me with the gentle rays of love and peace.

And so it is.

Amen.

a message from Jesus/Jeshua channeled by Judith Coates

Thursday, 1 September, 2011  (posted 13 September, 2011)

Beloved one, you are one of the ones who volunteered, a long time ago, to be incarnate at this time, to come ahead of time to pave the way and to be here now for what has been predicted and prophesied to be the great shift in collective consciousness. It is a shift that you have prayed for, that you have tried to envision, and that you have spoken about to the friends, the ones who would listen.

You have often been the masters, the ones who have been acknowledged as the wise woman of the village, the wise monk who knew how to access other dimensions. You have been the one who helped in birthing a new consciousness; not only birthing physical beings, but a new consciousness. And so once again you are here to lead the brothers and sisters into the preparation for the shift in consciousness.

As has been prophesied, in the next twelve to fifteen months of your timing there is going to be much of change, much that will look to you very different. You will look back upon this time and you will wonder, “How could such changes comes about?” As now you look back in the last decade, the last two decades, even four or five decades back, you can see the change in the collective consciousness thinking.
 

In your timing of the next twelve to fifteen months, there will be as much change happening as has happened in the last five decades. So hold on to your hats, as they say, because there are going to be day-by-day great leaps of understanding. Ones are ready to shed their heaviness. Ones are ready for peace. Ones are ready to know love, to know relationships that are uplifting. They have been calling out for healing. They have been calling out for answers to understand that life does not have to be as hard as the world has suggested to them and as hard as the peers and parents and even friends have said to them, “Well, that’s how life is.”

Now, regarding preparation for the shift: In truth, you have already been doing much preparation. You have been awakening in the mornings and you have been asking to see miracles in the day. You have been asking to know the positive of life and being grateful for what is in your life—all of nature, all of the friends, all of the books, all of the gatherings that you are called to go to. You are finding that you are grateful for everything that happens, even if at first it may seem a little bit strange.

But you find that you know that everything works together—as I have been saying to you for a long, long time—everything works together for the realization of at-One-ment. For truly, there is only One. Everything you perceive is you, because you are bringing it forth. Where does it exist?

Ask of yourself, where does everything truly exist? In your perception, in your mind, what you see. You are projecting what you believe is possible. You are projecting it out, and then you see it as it would be in a mirror coming back to you and you say, “Okay, that must be real, because I see it.” But, in truth, you have the idea first, and you are projecting it out.

So as you have been changing—and you have; in your mornings when you first wake up, throughout your day as you will acknowledge that perhaps you can see things differently—you are changing your perceptions. You are changing your world, the world around you, because you are projecting a different image of what can be.

Try it on for size on the morrow. Say, when you first wake up, “I am going to see miracles in this day. I am going to see happiness, lightness. I am going to see friends who want to be in the same light space.” You will notice as how you hold a certain idea, how things fall into place miraculously, how things just happen to time themselves perfectly, and you say, “Hey, that’s really cool. I like that,”—be aware that very often that which you have asked for comes to you.

Be aware of the little nuances of every day, because there are miracles every day that happen. They have to, because you have set your mind to see miracles, and they come because you expect them. That is the number one ingredient in preparation for this shift: expectancy. “I expect to see miracles in this day. I expect to see Light in this day. I expect to hear laughter and to feel joyful.”

Keep your expectancies positive, and that is what you will find in the day. Expectations, expectancy. That which you expect is what you are going to see. It is going to come to you. Now, I know for a long time you have been caught up in the morass of the world situation. Expect to see miracles happening there, as well. Expect to see other ones finding that they are truly able to change their lives.

I know the world has spoken that there are many who are suffering. You have projected that out because that has been old generational thinking of what you have been taught the world has to be. When it comes up for you — and it will — say, “No, that is not what I expect now. That is old generational thinking that I have subconsciously taken upon myself and expected to see, because the parents expected that.”

The brothers and sisters that you grew up with, your peers, this is what they have expected to see, as well. And so they see it. But you are moving into a new space, and the brothers and sisters that you interact with are also moving into a new space. Expect that they will move into a new space, because they truly are. They are waiting just for that little snap of the finger to make a change.

You may speak to them of the power of expecting the good. You have had a saying some decades ago. It even became a bumper sticker: Expect A Miracle. Well, take that as your motto every day. Expect a miracle. And you can be very specific about it if you want to. “I expect a miracle regarding the balance of the golden coins and the amount of work that I do. I expect a balance in my life.” And you will find that it will come, because you will be asking to see it, and it will happen because you expect it.

There is truly only One. You look out, and because you have been taught to see many, you see brothers and sisters. You project out this belief. But truly, you are the One expressing as the many, and that in itself is a miracle, that you can do such an expectation, that you are going to see hundreds, thousands or more individuals, seemingly individuals, upon the face of our holy Mother Earth.

But stop for a moment and ask yourself, “Where does that idea come from? Well, it comes from my belief that there are many people inhabiting the world. Maybe I can see this differently. Maybe there is only One of us. Maybe there is only the I, the We.” We; start working with the word We, because you are joined to all of the ones that you yet see because of the belief in the many.

So start working with “We.” We feel peace. We are happy. We are enlightened. And then you come to a place where you begin to understand that the mind is showing you many because you have been taught that there are many. But maybe it is all a projection of the One. Play with that idea for awhile and see how powerful you are.

I have spoken to you throughout the years about how powerful you are, how creative you are, how you create everything that is in your world, in your experience. You create everything. And if you create it, where does it start first? It starts with an idea in your mind. So you begin to expect that things are going to be different. Things are going to be easy. “I am going to have everything I need.”

You, as the One creative Mind that you are, will always take care of you. You can rely on that, even if you have to call on me and think that I will do miracles for you. I will, but it is truly your belief that does it. But if you want to call on me to do a few miracles for you, that is okay, too. I am happy to do that. It is easy.

Begin to understand your power. Begin to understand how Light you are, how Light everything in the world, in your world, can be as you project Light, as you feel Light. Physical lightness, yes; emotional lightness even more, and understanding that, “I expect to feel Light. I expect the brothers and sisters — as I still see the One expressing as the many — I expect to see them moving into Light.”

As you work with expectancy, as you work with changing belief, it is powerful. That is why I can say to you that in the next twelve to fifteen months you are going to be in a very different place. You are going to see your world in a very different dimension, because you are projecting what the world is.

Now, do not take, from what I have just said, guilt upon yourself and say, “People in other countries are suffering because it is my belief that they are suffering. I am guilty.” No, you are not. And they are not. In truth, they are not suffering. “Oh, my goodness, how can that be true. My news media tells me that there is chaos, there are uprisings, there is the military that is doing horrendous things. How can that be true?”

In truth, they are not suffering, except as how you believe they are suffering. What if you believed and expected that they are going to come to peace. It might happen; not only might happen, it will happen. It has to happen, because you are the extension—as we have said many times—of the one creative Principle. You create everything in your life. That is how powerful you are.

The mind cannot take that in. It can work with it, it can play with it, it can toss it around and find all sorts of objections to it. But when you work with the heart, with the feeling of the expectation, then you come to the truth. Work with loving everything that comes into your experience every day. Love it, thank it, and know that truly you have put it there as a gift.

I know many times separated ego has said, “Ha, big gift,” and has wondered, “What are you going to do with this gift?” But everything is a gift that has led you to this place now where you are ready to hear that there is truly only One expressing as the many, as there is yet that belief. And how you are changing that in your preparation for the shift is with expectancy and with love; expecting that things are going to be different; expecting that you are going to love everything in your life.

Wow, big order. It seems to be big, but you have already made great strides in moving into the space of saying, “I want to see the good in this. I am willing to see the good in this.” You have already made great progress. So when separated ego will speak to you that, “That’s too tall an order, I can’t do that, I can’t love everything and count everything as a blessing,” you just say back to separated ego, “Hey, I’ve been doing that. Where have you been? You didn’t notice. I’ve been moving into a space of great gratitude for everything I know that I am out-picturing.”

Work with loving everything that you see, everyone that you see. Work with, play with, experience loving yourself, because you are the one who is creating. You are the master, as we have spoken many times, and you have heard the words and you have said, “Oh, well, that sounds good, but how come I have all this manure in my life?” Well, it is because you want to grow, and so you do.

Work with gratitude for what you see in your life, and then bring that back home to yourself, to loving self, and say, “Hey, you know, I’ve really done a good job this lifetime. I’ve come through a lot of challenges, worldly challenges, and I’ve been able to see the good in it; maybe not right away, but later on I could see the good in it.” Because truly you have allowed healing in a lot of areas where at the time when you were in the middle of it you did not think there could be healing—relationships especially.

And so then you live in a place of gratitude. You live in a place of saying, “Wow, there must have been a divine plan. Hmm.” And then you move one step closer and you say, “I must have had an idea, a future self of me that was going to be able to look back on this and see the healing in it.” Because you have in every moment what you would understand as a concept, a future self.

Play with that for awhile. It is powerful. Play with being the future self of you. “What is the future self”—and it may be like the next day or the next year or ten years—“what is the future self of me going to be doing? Where am I going to be? What do I want to be doing? What can I create?”

That is powerful, and that is part of the preparation for the shift that you are bringing about. Loving self, being grateful for everything in your life, seeing everything as a miracle, being able to look forward to the future self and say, “Self, how do you see what I am going through now?”

Put it forward perhaps the twelve months. Where are you going to be in twelve months? Separated ego says, “Well, I don’t know.” Well, separated ego does not know. But the future self of you does know and does exist even in this moment, and you can access it by expecting to access it.

The understanding of expectancy transforms your life. It hastens the shift that has been prophesied. You believe in the prophecy and you know something big is going to happen because it has been prophesied by many, many people; therefore, it has to be true. Of course, the many, many people are projections of your belief, but it comes from the one divine Source of you that says, “It’s time. It’s time now to know the one Self, the one creative Energy, the One that is expressing yet as the many, the We of us.

“We are doing really well. We are bringing miracles into existence. Wow! Hey, you know, that’s really great. I can speak that to the friends. You know, we are really bringing about change”—and it is true. So you speak this to the friends. Some of them will understand and be happy about it. Other ones will say, “Hmm, that’s very strange.” But that is alright. You have created them in order to perhaps have a bit of feedback. And in time you are going to bring about only the ones who are in the same resonance with you, because your belief and your projection is going to show you only harmony.

You can feel that in the heart. The mind sometimes has a bit of a problem with it, but the heart knows. The heart feels love, Oneness. And then the heart instructs the mind to see things differently.

Those of you reading this have asked that you be the pivotal teachers, the ones who know that you are projecting that which you see in your life. It is what you expect to see. You are the ones who have agreed that you are going to take that power and you are going to spread it as seeds among the seeming many, and you are going to love them, because you have created them to be in your life.

You are going to say, “Wow.” Maybe not out loud. “I have created you. I see you as an extension of life. I see you with a body. I see you going through experiences of life. I am creating you moment by moment. In truth, there is no separation, and you really do not exist except as I see and expect you to exist.”

And that does not then cancel out their value. It only brings the belief system back to its origin, back to the one Mind that projects out. In Truth, you as individuals do not exist, except as there is belief in your mind that the other ones exist. So if you are creating them—and I say unto you truly, you are—then make them the way you want them to be. Make them as friends—happy, joyful, wanting to do things with you in a harmonious way to bring about peace, to bring about enlightenment in the world.

If, in Truth, the other ones do not exist except as you bring them into your reality – lower case “r” – then make them the beautiful beings that truly the extension of the one creative Principle would dictate that they are.  Hear that well. Go back and read that again. It went over the head, but it is true. You are creating everything you experience; you have heard that before.

You are creating all of the friends and not-so-friends in your life. In truth, they only exist as you believe them to exist; therefore, you can see them differently. You can expect to see them differently. Now, that takes a bit of playing with, until you practice, practice, practice. But it does not take too much practice before the penny drops in the slot, and you say, “Oh, okay, I understand; I get a glimpse of that. Okay, and that means then that I can expect to see harmony in my world, even love.” And you will.

Love is all around you all the time. It is what you truly are—love incarnate, expressing. And as you understand that about yourself, you begin to feel differently about yourself. You begin to know that truly it is the power of love that dictates to the mind what you are going to expect to see, and things change rapidly.

That is why I can make the prediction that within the next twelve to fifteen months you are going to see big changes. You are going to see big changes, because you are going to expect to see big changes. It has been prophesied. A master has spoken to you that it is going to happen; many masters, in truth. And you are going to project out the belief that changes are going to happen. And what will you see? Changes. The changes that you have prayed for many lifetimes.

Now you have moved to the place where you are willing to see changes. Other lifetimes you expected to live the human life with all of its challenges because you wanted to play in the sandbox; you wanted to know what that particular sandbox felt like. What color was the sand? Was it heavy, was it light, was it gray, was it pink, was it green sand? What happened when you threw it up in the air? Did it come back down on top of you, or did it fly away somewhere? You wanted to know the different sandboxes.

But in the back of your knowing, even in what you understand other lifetimes to be, there was a knowing, a hope that you would come to a place of understanding that the sandbox was just a sandbox, just a place to play; no judgment, but just a place to be creative. And so you have been very creative. And now you can look back and you can bless every creation.

Expect a miracle. Expect to change your mind. Expect to feel differently about yourself. Expect to take on the power of changing your beliefs, and then look for the miracles, because they will be there—little ones and big ones. And that which you have thought to be difficult will find an ease in manifesting the answer. It will flow.

Change your thoughts and you change your reality. It is as easy as that. Change your expectancy and you change your reality—lower case “r”. And the power for changing your reality—lower case “r”—comes from the Reality of the capital “R” because you are the extension of the one creative Principle. You are energy. You are Intelligence. You are the divine flow of Beingness from before time began.

You are the creators of time. And after the purpose of time has been fulfilled, and that may happen in the next twelve to fifteen months, you are always going to be that which you are right now—the one divine Self, the extension of the one divine Source. So if you are that—and I guarantee that you are—why not be happy? Expect to be happy, and you will be.

Understand the power of your creativity. Begin to grasp it. Begin to understand the one Mind that you are.

Do not take guilt, because nothing is judged; nothing is judged. Everything serves the realization of at-One-ment. Everything brings you to the place where you are right now, where you have grasped a new idea, an understanding of how powerful you are.

Expect to see me. Play with that one for awhile. Expect to see me in the light body, as a physical body glowing. Feel me. I will take your hand. Feel my hand taking yours. Reach out right now and feel my hand taking your hand. Feel the energy. Know that always that which I am, you are.

So be it.

God said:
 

You are growing in love and wisdom right and left. And the growing is not always easy. Your ego is being wracked right and left, and that is how you grow. Ego is forced to step aside, at least for a while, and you see yourself rising to the sun. You did not get burned. Your ego did.

Ego doesn't go up in flames without a fight. I talk about ego as though you have no responsibility for it. Never mind, you are learning to get along without it or without so much of it.

You are really beginning to learn that there are no affronts to you, only to your ego. Oh, beloveds, think of what it will be when ego no longer pesters you and gets the best of you and when you stand above it. Picture yourself standing tall, ego on the floor beneath, and with your foot on ego, you keep it down. Now ego submits to you, instead of your submitting to ego. Now you have risen, and you are vaulting across the Universe knowingly with Me.

Ego has cramped your style. You are just beginning to find out what your style is, your true style, your true way of being unshackled from ego and ego needs. When you don't have ego, what do you require? Without ego, you who are everything have everything you need. And, if there should be something you don't have, then you don't need it. You did very much need to be without commandeering ego, that selfish twit of an ego who got in your way. I say this as it is.

We do not make an ode to ego, nor do we hold animosity toward the now fallen ego. Although ego has been an opponent, it had its purpose for you. It brought you to where you are now. Now you are a hero to yourself. Without ego, you can truly love your God-given self. Ego was like a rash, hot and itchy, and now you are not inflamed. Now you are calm and cooled down. You have removed the hair shirt of ego. No longer do you bow to it. Now you bow to the sun and to the God in you.

Let Us thank ego for helping you and the world to see what ego really looks like, hardly the picture you had of it and the importance you held it in. Now you remove your foot from the prone ego and let it go off with its tail between its legs. Ego was all an illusion anyway. It never existed except as you gave homage to it. Ego had you twisted around its little finger. How presumptuous ego was.

Now you are free of ego. Even though it had you in its power, it had no power except as you granted it. You fed ego's ego. And now you are free. Or almost free. You certainly are getting there.

What is there to say about ego when it is gone or well on its way out? Ego really never had anything to do with you! It was your ego! Instead of your training this errant ego, you let it train you! And now you are getting out from under ego. You used to be prone on the floor of life, and ego had its foot on you. You let ego go. Avast, ego, avast. At last, you are releasing your hold on it.

Let's have a party. Let's have a Thanksgiving Day. Hurray, you are outliving ego and all the pictures of the past.

God said:

The threads of your life are coming together. Your heart is on the line. No longer can you portray yourself as you may have portrayed yourself in the past. You are coming to the plate. You are at bat. You cannot get away with what you once thought you got away with. Now you swing, and the ball is thrown back to you quickly and becomes a hot potato.

You never did get away with anything. You paid your price. You always did. It may have been an IOU. Your IOU always got picked up somewhere somehow.

Others may also have paid a price for your misdemeanors. They may have been innocent bystanders who happened to be in front of you. That is how it is. One who offends is a bystander. Most likely, you offended yourself. You offended yourself because you approve too little of yourself or not at all really. And so you have to be bolstered. How dare someone not value you enough to help you forget your disavowal of yourself?

You want utter approval from others to make up for your appraisal of yourself. You have to have it. If you don't have it, you are desolate. If you loved yourself, you would never take the offense you take now. Whenever you take offense, you yourself have taken it. You whisked it out of the ether. The expression is that you took offense. You took it as one might shoplift. You take offense on your own say-so.

You pay yourself back for taking offense. You don't let yourself get away with it. You slap your own hand. You punish yourself with anger and grudge. You still are convinced that someone has something to do with you. You have something to do with you. I would say that you have punished yourself enough. Of course, I mean your self-inflicted punishment is not necessary. It may seem necessary to you because your ego resents someone else's ego.

Only on the level of ego do you take the offense you have taken. Now the day of offense is at an end. It is not love to take offense. It is not love to let hurt and anger and bitterness become your masters. Now is when you learn to love, not as a sacrifice, but as the culmination of yourself, the rising of yourself, from ego to love.

No longer do you take offense. It is no longer possible for you to take offense. This is not quite the same as forgiving. It is pre-forgiving. It is not even that. It is seeing truth.

Truly, the person before you is yourself, and I mean that on the relative level as well. The person whom you take offense at is reflecting you. The person may be a mirror image of you. If the person is so greedy, so are you greedy. If the person before you is so needy, so are you needy. If the person before you always thinks of himself first, so is it with you. If the person before you wants to be first in line at your seeming expense, so do you want to be first in line regardless of expense to another. You will even pay the price of anger and hurt and blame someone else for extracting them from you.

I am not giving you instruction, beloveds. I am telling you that you are rising to a new level. This new level of rising consciousness allows you to be generous. No longer do you have to be first in line. You are becoming content to usher others to the front and be happy about it. You are not losing your integrity. You are growing in love and so you simply naturally give more love. The lesson may have been hard, and yet now the loving is easy. It is where you are.

Posted by Selene Aswell

I AM Ashtar of the Galactic Federation of Light,

You all are here, growing so beautifully. You are expanding into greater awareness of what and who you are. It is beautiful to watch, a blessing to my heart to serve you all on your waking up journey.

You have been encouraged to “wake up”. Some of you may wonder, “Now what? I have become more aware, I have learned things about myself I never would have dreamed, I have learned things about Creation I had not imagined before. But, now that I am awake…. now what?”

I would encourage you to understand those thoughts are of your egos. Your ego is a useful tool for living in the 3rd Dimension, as you all do. But, when it comes to the journey back into ascension, your ego may not be the most reliable friend.

Trust those whom you call, “Ascended Masters”. Their advice is most helpful because they have been exactly where you are, they can help you find your way.

When we suggest waking up, we suggest an ever deepening journey into yourself. The Kingdom of Heaven is Within, right? You will find all that you seek within yourself. When we tell you to wake up, we are giving advice ages old… “Know Thyself” would be another phrasing of the same suggestion.

Some of you have probably realized by now that ascension is like a spiral. There is no end. There is no one way. The deeper you dig into yourself, the more you find. You may have been frustrated with this experience, wondering, “When will I be done! When will there be no more pain or fear to process?” Again, these are the cries of your ego. Your ego has its own ideas of what you are doing, of who you are becoming. It has its own expectations of what the journey will look like, how you will get to become an Ascended Master. Those expectations and ideas are what most hinder you. How can you know what your journey will be? How can anyone?

Your ascension path unfolds as brilliant and unique as each snowflake, as each flower, as each print on each finger. If you hold so tightly to your hows and whys you will not allow yourself the grace to simply bloom as you cannot yet imagine.

Your egos are like the flower bud, holding itself together so tightly with the idea, “I must unfold each petal exactly so to be the most perfect flower there ever was.” Yet, when the sun comes out, in its radiant glory, each petal pops open to capture the warmth and love. It cannot be controlled. It cannot not be contained. You will become the most perfect flower there ever was simply by being. Every flower is most perfect.

The sun, your most radiant perfect expression of self, the rain, the love showered on you from Spirit, the Earth your home, your support and foundation, and you– your current expression of Self– the most perfect expression of everything in between.

I’m here to remind you that you are perfect, exactly as you are. Your wonderings, your wanderings, your pains and fears, your expectations, your hesitations and doubts, all are exactly perfect. Even if you never changed, if you stayed exactly as you are in this moment for all of eternity, you would be precisely perfect.

That idea you can hold on to. Try to remember this throughout your humdrum day, throughout the trials on your patience, throughout each moment of self-judgement. Say to yourself, “This too is perfect.” See how that changes your experience, your perspective. Everything is in fact perfect, try to allow yourself to experience it as such. Try to allow yourself to experience the fact that You are Perfect.

My friends, trust your journeys. Let them be the great adventure they are! Trust your guides and the messages coming forth which resonate with your experience of Truth. Allow your paths to twist and turn into the unknown. Allow your hearts and minds to unfold in ways you cannot imagine.

Step forward with Trust and Delight. You will know the Beauty of Who you Are.

I Am Ashtar Sheran.

Communiques is a channeled message from the One Mind and the One Thought, the only conscious that is the One. We would wish to be seen as you speaking to yourself. It is our hope and our intent that our words inspire and awaken that inner knowingness within oneself to awaken to the consciousness of All That Is.

When one thinks of the word surrender, one often feels that to surrender is to be defeated. One surrenders when they have become overpowered, no longer able to endure, incapable of victory. Within human society and military operations this definition is quite accurate. Surrender is synomous with defeat.

So, it is expected when one is asked to spiritually surrender that it could mean defeat. We have been powerless against our own demons and beleaguered and disheveled, fatigued and confused. We give up. And, indeed, this behavior is very much parallel to society's concept of surrender.

Nothing could be further from the truth. Spiritual surrender has nothing to do with giving up; it has nothing to do with defeat; it has nothing to do with going to battle. In fact, when one does not surrender, they are already defeated. With that in mind, let us explore the concept of surrender and how it pertains to the aspect of Consciousness which is the thought, the One Thought, encompassed within the mind of humanity.
 

One might question why we would say not to surrender is to be defeated. Surrender is a lack of participation in that which we do not wish to participate in. The only way something can affect you is if it is attached to your consciousness, and the degree to which it is attached to your consciousness is in direct proportion to how it affects your reality. Surrender is not to attach yourself to thoughts that are not beneficial. Surrender is a preemptive strike against the negative ego rather than a result of failure in battle with it. The preemptive strike is that surrender makes you impregnable to the negative because the negative ego has no place to attach itself to to create. Surrender is the choice not to do battle with that which you do not desire. Surrender never encounters the negative ego. As soon as a thought or a creation which perhaps you are even doing battle with comes to your awareness and you are emotionally attached, surrender is removing yourself from the battle. Surrender is also pure potentiality. That is why it is valuable and important to declare dominion over what you choose to participate in. Otherwise especially in the world you live in, there is a legion of other negative thoughts eager to take the place of the one you just surrendered to. Surrender is the most important position in the universe because it makes you completely free to create without exterior influences what you desire. That is why in the One Mind, the One Thought and the One Soul, the acknowledgment, the surrender and the dominion are without negativity; for, there is no place for negativity to hide. Therefore the mind of God is without negativity. Surrender is propelled by innocence, it feels much harder to surrender when you do not feel so innocent. Innocence is created by surrender; for, it is pure and unaware of that which falls outside the mind of God.
 

Individuality, the concept of separateness, creates the opportunity for defeat because it creates separation and embattlement. As we have spoken, when you incorporate anything into yourself, you cannot be at battle with it. Separation always creates conflict. There is a difference between self awareness and individuality or separateness. Individuality or separateness is a statement of attitude or your position. It must be in conflict; for, its goal is to keep you separate. Self awareness does not fear the other. Individuality must always fight for its existence because the laws of the universe are always seeking to draw it into the oneness of All That Is. Perhaps helpful to realize that the negative ego is not evil. It is the part of your fighting for your individualization, comparing, judging you--all things that create isolation.

So go forth and surrender, ignoring the thoughts that fall outside the mind of God. Remember, perhaps do you recall there was in the film "War Games" where the child was playing with the computer. and the computer decided the only way to win was not to play. Therein lies the secret of eliminating negativity in you life.
