June 2008

Right now, you are in the midst of a revolution in human consciousness. This involves such significant changes in how people live and view life that you don't yet have language for it. 

You are having some previews of coming attractions in those fleeting moments when you realize you know something there's "no way" you could have known. It happens when you lose track of time, and when you discover that some projects typically taking you an entire day are accomplished within a single hour. It occurs when you meet people for the first time and feel strangely comfortable with them, as though you had known them forever. It happens when you contemplate a troublesome issue before dreamtime, inviting a Divine resolution, and you awaken with fresh new insights that can help you turn things around. It occurs when you go beyond reason and discern a truth with your heart and intuitive knowing. It takes place in the moments when you let go and simply allow yourself to see what was there all along. 

Seeing What Was There All Along

What you find may astonish you! An example is your sensing the presence of a benevolent nonphysical spirit guide. This guide may have been around you for your entire life, yet perhaps now is the first time you have had the readiness and willingness to recognize its presence. 

Another example involves times when you are able to suddenly connect the dots involving a puzzle of pain you've been trying to heal for years. You may have had realizations about your issue many other times, yet none of them led you out of the maze that kept you hopelessly stuck. This time, though, you really get what the root of your problem is. A "flash" of insight and Divine grace, coming seemingly out of nowhere, helps you to illuminate the root of your pain, fully understand the connecting pieces with the "big view" spirit has, and then take actions leading to a final resolution. 

As you grow in awareness, the truth which was there all along comes to the surface and it becomes easier for you to recognize it as truth. This is happening, on a more conscious level, for light workers who are questioning what they were taught, questioning the media, and sincerely desiring to know what is real. Indeed, the more that you can recognize truth, the more quickly you can advance up and out of the dark rabbit hole of human ignorance. 

Reversing the Long Sleep of Human Ignorance

During this time of change, people from all walks of life are beginning to awaken from a very long sleep. On some days, it may not feel like it, yet this is what is occurring. The planet's evolution into a higher consciousness is indeed underway, and this movement will proceed even if the majority of people are not "ready" for the shift.   

This last point is something to remember on those days when you feel concern for the plight of fear-based masses of people in all corners of the world. On those days, you may question whether there is "time" and whether the majority of people really care about anything beyond mundane concerns. 

When you are feeling like that, rather than dwell on the negative, focus your energies in positive ways that can help yourself and others. Regardless of what others are doing, decide that you will be ready for the next stages of the shift. Remember, also, that upward spirals of growth can occur very slowly or seemingly in a "flash" of time. This applies to both individuals and the planet as a whole.

How quickly a person evolves is directly related to the level of willingness to change. There must be openness to seeing things differently, questioning one's own status quo, responding with radical new approaches, and fearlessly making different choices without a road map,  While this approach may sound like an impossible feat to someone mired in a life crisis, even the ordinary person can succeed if there is enough self-love.  

Self-love is the Key

Set your intention daily to develop even more self-love than you had yesterday. Decide that you will be willing to look closely at those patterns within you that prevent you from being unconditionally loving. When these patterns come into your awareness, be dedicated to rooting them out so that you can become free of them. Approach your inner work with fearlessness, kindness and patience. During this process of transformation, set your intent to nurture yourself just like a loving mother would do with her young child. 

It is not selfish to love yourself, and to create a lifestyle that allows you to transform and progress spiritually. In fact, you harm yourself and others when you neglect your own growth. Each time you choose thoughts and actions coming from love, you impact countless other sentient beings with a wave of uplifting energy! 

Ascension is a natural process, unfolding for the planet and its life forms. If you are here in a body right now, you have unprecedented opportunities to advance as a soul, in part because of incarnating on Earth at this auspicious time. These opportunities begin to present themselves as soon as you have a sincere desire for positive change and take actions on that desire. 

Unique Opportunities of This Life

If you have been on the path of expanded awareness for some time, you have had glimpses of just how precious this lifetime is for your own progress as a soul. Most likely, you have had experiential evidence of some key opportunities not available to you in previous lives. 

For example, to live today offers the opportunity to have real-time access to world events, providing learning about diverse cultures and ways of thinking and being. The ability to know about the sufferings and celebrations of people half-way across the world helps you to move into an expanded awareness of the interconnectedness of all life.   

Rather than simply focusing on your own problems of the moment, you learn that people everywhere are actually quite similar. Underneath their false egocentric exteriors, people on all continents want the same things-to love and be loved, to be happy, to feel secure, and to feel empowered.   

When you really get what this means in practice, beyond the words, it can begin to change your life. First, being exposed to humanity in this way and realizing these simple truths can help you to be more accepting of yourself. Developing more self-love is the first ingredient needed to advance spiritually. With more love and compassion for yourself, you can then extend that outward to others. Remembering that other people are also learning how to love, it is easier for you to be kind regardless of circumstances. This kindness is your love in action.  

Timing of the Shift

Many of the old paradigm structures of humanity's past-including fear-based institutions of control and hierarchical governments-could not change before now because the consensus reality did not support it. 

The consensus reality is formed by individuals over time, each person shaping it by how they view the world. A person's views include countless belief systems held within the DNA. These beliefs include those inherited from one's ancestors many generations back, those formed in past lives, those taken on from the mass consciousness, and those formed in the current life. All of these reside in the subconscious, out of ordinary awareness. 

To change the consensus reality, then, requires that sufficient people change their world view-from the inside out-and then apply that new view to actions in the world. This change is within one person at a time, and yet the inner change of even one person can impact many other people.   

On an individual level, the process of awakening into a higher consciousness is often accompanied by feelings of urgency and strong desires to change the status quo. The more that you see things as they really are, rather than the sugar-coated version of reality you previously embraced, it's natural to notice how out-of-balance things have become. 

A part of you knows that you will need to become more balanced, more whole, and more self-accepting before you can see your world clearly. The next big jump that you as a soul are preparing to make this incarnation can only be taken successfully when you have that clarity. 

For this reason, the force of spirit within you is guiding you into avenues of potential transformation and nudging you in the direction of positive change. It is in your highest good, therefore, to learn as much as you can about decoding the messages of spirit, and to develop a deeper and more tangible connection with your spiritual guidance. As part of that, it is essential to become practiced in acting on the intuitive guidance you receive. Know that even the seemingly trivial intuitive messages, when acted upon, can lead you to great leaps in personal growth. Therefore, as you become proficient in decoding the messages of spirit, and appropriately act upon them, you can greatly accelerate your personal shifting process. 

The Shift & Physical Symptoms

For those who tend to process energetic shifts physically, this current cycle of change is likely to catalyze physical symptoms. Examples include periodic aches and pains, sleep disturbances, headaches, lack of energy, feeling ungrounded or spacey, and unexplained sensitivities to foods and other things.  

All of a sudden, for example, you can have indigestion or another physical response after eating a food that's long been a part of your diet. Sometimes this will have to do with the food's preparation, or with how it's treated with chemicals. At other times, your food reaction will have nothing to do with these things, as your body is simply rejecting what you ate for a host of possible reasons. 

One explanation is this. On some days, as your body processes unseen energetic shifts, certain foods can set off a physical reaction within you. If what your body really needed was just a glass of water for hydration and you ate your favorite rice dish, you could have a reaction. Likewise, if you were starting to feel a bit spacey and ate a calorie-laden snack instead of grounding yourself with a walk barefoot on the grass, you could end up feeling tired instead of centered.  

Get in the habit, therefore, of learning to intuit what your body really needs and giving it that. Here's a brief checklist of questions to ask yourself to confirm what your body needs. To ask these, become still for a moment and invite your intuitively guided reason to show you what is most appropriate. Then listen with relaxed, focused attention to determine the optimal course of action.

1. Does my body need water or hydration?
2. Does my body need grounding and centering?
3. Does my body need sleep, more rest or to de-stress?
4. Would exercise help?
5. How about a process or physical movement encouraging deep breathing?
6. Does my body need food, and if so, what type is best?
7. Is the uncomfortable or other physical sensation I'm feeling due to what I recently ingested?
8. If so, what about the food or drink is impacting me (additives, method of preparation, how much I ate, the food combining, etc.)?
9. If my body is having a physical reaction, what is the optimal remedy (alter the diet, wait a while to eat or drink anything else, do a detoxification or juice fast, etc.)?
10. Is my reaction temporary only, or do I need to stop ingesting something in my usual diet?
11. What else would my body like right now?
12. How can I take better care of my body in general?

To be sure, as you progress on the path of personal transformation, you will find that your body requires adjustments in diet, rest and self-care. You will want to keep up-to-date with what you personally need at each stage. No outside authority can give you the real-time wisdom that your own body can!  

DNA Changes During the Shift

Your very DNA is changing during humanity's great shift. These DNA changes impact you on all levels--including physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. It's quite common, as this happens, for you to benefit from a higher vibrational diet that can optimally support the changes happening within you at a cellular level. Many of the things you enjoyed eating and drinking in the past will simply be out of harmony with your new energy. If you still eat some of these foods, your body may have difficulty processing them. Similarly, if you have grown accustomed to a very stress-filled life and don't give your body enough rest and quality sleep, you can slow down your own personal transformation process. 

As you evolve, you shed the density of your humanness, including patterns held within you on a physical level within the DNA. Many of your patterns shift as you do personal inner work. Sometimes your shifting is catalyzed when others around you with a similar pattern begin changing in significant ways, and your readiness to transform facilitates your own leap forward. 

One of the biggest changes on the planet today is how rapidly people are able to shed their long-held negative patterns. The releasing still happens in layers, for this is the natural way energy moves, yet the process is speedier and deeper than possible before now. Shedding these layers allows you to hold increasing amounts of Light and to greatly accelerate your progress as a soul this lifetime. 

If you were involved with personal transformational work a decade or so ago, and today approach your evolutionary process with the current energies, you will sense the difference. There are some "new" healing methods available, yet it's much more than method. It's really about the energy available to you during these times, and connected to the higher consciousness that is developing within people. Things are accelerated, with a lighter feel, and accomplished with greater ease. Even "old" methods, when applied today, can yield much faster results than were possible in earlier times. 

Change can be fast, yet keep in mind the importance of patience and Divine timing, developing a trust in the unseen mysteries of spirit working in your life. 

The more that you can approach your own shifting with loving kindness, the smoother your road of change will be. On some days it may still feel like a roller coaster ride, yet your self-love can help you to have the necessary steadiness within.    

As you continue the journey of rediscovering your Divine nature, we surround you with our love and blessings. We are The Council of 12.
