Since the news about Trump’s illness came out I have been uncharacteristically angry. Not at him for being ill, but by the heedless behavior of him and his cohorts. Throughout much of the weekend, I was consumed with anger at the people around us who deliberately put others at risk because of their jacked-up theories and beliefs about Covid 19. Watching this national debacle with Trump’s illness and the ongoing disregard of his administration toward the safety of others, and experiencing an extremely similar situation in my own personal life that has left people I care about deliberately exposed has affected me profoundly.
And yes, there is more to come and it has to be this way. We chose to be here for this, to be the Light, to Light the way. I know that a part of me continues this sacred work while the mother and human part of me right now has been filled up to the brim with frustration and fear and rage…
It ain’t pretty but it’s real. We have all struggled this year. We rely on our own inner strength and our support systems to get us through. Some days are easier than others and some not so much. Some are just plain horrid.
As I have said before, I live with a foot in two worlds. One, the mundane, illusory world we are all participating in to some degree or another. The other foot resides in a world of unity where all is well. That is my (our) true home but because we still “live” in a world of polarity, these worlds seem separate and distant when in fact they are not. One is the dream, the illusion, and it seems to me to lie on top of the true world. A window dressing, so to speak; a costume, a role.
The higher truths sustain and balance us when the illusion becomes too close for comfort. We are being asked who we are and our every hidden aspect is being paraded out in the world for all to see and experience. We have to choose our way forward with care and deliberation. Love is the only way forward. Our anger and frustration must be honored and released, not carried forward where it might lead to further division.
And so I am told:
Transformation comes to all, with all its aches and pains. The promise of rebirth is assured as is the dawning of the new age. In the darkest moments, deep reserves are discovered and courage is found. The Hero’s Journey continues as you are asked to face your deepest fears and hidden self. Those of you born to light the way know this, even as emotion threatens to overwhelm. One must never forget that emotion is energy in motion, designed to move you from one place to another. Emotion is not who you are; it is a process of informing your inner self. Allow emotion its voice without allowing it dominance. Take time to breathe, to step away into reflection and peace to recharge and refresh. Meditate. Honor the Light within for it is the true reflection of you. Remember who you are.
You may not see it yet, but the Dawn is coming.
The shadow must be honored if the light is to dawn. Ellias Lonsdale

The news continues to horrify, frighten, anger and mystify. Hidden within all the attention-grabbing disaster, are wonderful stories of inspiration and hope. Why are they so hidden? Why are they not the lead stories? Humans seem to be obsessed with darkness and fear, don’t they? We love our reality shows, the more outrageous the better, and certainly few if any of them actually celebrate the Light.
We can’t just blame our obsession on “scary stuff sells” or anything else. I think we have to face the possibility that we have allowed darkness to consume our focus. One could very easily make the argument that it is because our shadows are screaming for our attention. If we see darkness “out there”, then maybe we will recognize it in ourselves and make it conscious.
Doesn’t seem to be working very well, does it? Or is it working perfectly?? Shadow work has been front and center throughout this chaotic 2020. Many have embraced it as part of their spiritual path. Many struggle. And many remain asleep. Each has their own intended path.
The other night, I saw a preview for a new tv show and heard this old rubric: Darkness doesn’t really exist. Darkness is just the absence of light.
It struck powerfully me in that moment for much power we give to darkness. Darkness overwhelms and frightens and seems insurmountable. And yet I am reminded of Albus Dumbledore’s perfect quote: “Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.”
We forget that darkness can be dispelled with the application of light. So simple. Funny how we are sort of programmed to forget the simplest things.
Darkness and light exist side by side, reflecting and balancing each other. It is past time for us to embrace the idea and remember to turn on the light.   Especially when we are scared and feel threatened, like many of us are when we check out the current news. We know we are Light, so it is time to apply that knowledge.
A liberal application of Light might shift everything.
And so I am told:
Blessed ones, this is not a battle of good versus evil, or dark versus light. It is about embracing and accepting that both not only live within you but are the underpinnings of your very existence. Only when you can make room for both will they balance each other out. Only when you recognize your own balanced entirety will peace be achieved. This process begins with accepting yourself in all of your perceived positives and negatives. Do not waste your time wishing those you see would change and be better, kinder, whatever. Turn your focus inward and allow your Light to open doors to your most hidden self. Humans, in their effort to belittle others and themselves, have lost sight of who they truly are. We urge you to begin accepting the Divine nature of your existence. You are infinitely more than you can imagine, even with all of your perceived flaws and inadequacies. Allow your Light its full expression. You do not need to portion it out as if you might run out. Indeed, the more you shine, the brighter the Light. You are ready and that ordained moment in time/space has arrived. Allow your glorious Light to permeate you that you might fully give yourself into its loving embrace. As you do this, you will begin to see and feel the dissipation of the power that darkness has held over you. Darkness will not cease to exist but instead will achieve balance with Light, both within you and within what you see “out there”. The Rebalancing of your world begins and ends with each of you.

Throughout history, humankind has looked to a leader to light the way. We followed in their footsteps, allowing them to be the face of Light in the world. They were the One Who Knew The Way, and we looked to them to guide and inform us.
This changes with the passing of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. We are being asked to assume her Light and carry it forward. No longer can the one represent the many while the many stand by awaiting direction.
Now is the time for the Light to awaken in the hearts of everyone. This isn’t a matter of taking to the streets although you may choose that path. This is a matter of knowing what is right and what is wrong and how to work together for the betterment of our world. We serve the Light by being the Light.
It is the veracity of Light. Light and unity are not something that exist “out there”. They are something we carry within us and embody, a sacred endeavor, a choice, an obligation, an honor. A commitment.
And so this I ask you: are you willing to fully embody the Light? Let the light of Ruth Bader Ginsberg, let the Light of All There Is fill your body so fully that there will never be any question about how we take care of humanity, each other, our world and ourselves. We have historically held our own Lights at a distance. “I don’t deserve this.” “I’m not like him/her.” “I am just one person.” Have you said something like that to yourself before? I say to you now – Stop. Stop it. Light isn’t something that is based on merit. Light just simply IS and it is who we are.
In the world of division and polarization, we have lived as many individuals with the emphasis on the needs of the one, the self. In point of fact, we’ve been selfish and greedy. Certainly some of us have done lots of good things, some of us have done some good things and some of us are just struggling to get by. No judgment here – it’s a hard world. But now we have the opportunity to change it, to become more. If we can see the many as one, and one as many then we become unified.
When we see ourselves as part of the earth and that the earth is part of us, we become unified. When we find a way to work through something rather than roll over it, we become unified. When the needs of the smallest become as important as those of the loudest, we become unified. When your first thought is to reach your hand out to help and not strike out, we become unified. When unity becomes more important than political party, we become unified. Ruth Bader Ginsburg embodied Light, she embodied voice in action and she embodied truth. She was an exceptional human being because she accepted that she had a mission to carry her Light. She fully embodied her Light.
Find that Light within you, and begin to fully embody it. You see Ruth Bader Ginsberg’s Light? That Light is you. That Light is all of us.
Yes there are still hard days before us but we know the path forward is one of Light.
And with open hearts embracing unity and fully embodied Light, we can move mountains.
Message from the Mother:
Grieve not for she is Light now, a light you carry within your hearts. She came to open doors and this she has done, easing the way for those of you who will now step into her shoes. For this is her final gift: that her spirit, her sense of justice and desire for equal rights for women is set alight within the hearts of all who desire unity. There can be no unity without the Divine Feminine in her rightful place. Now each of you carry her torch. Where there was one, now are many.
I promise each of you this: she has not left the world; she has set hearts aflame, and these hearts will change the world. Today it begins. The Divine Feminine has risen.

This past week was one of eye-popping and eye-opening disclosures and heart-rending destruction of the Pacific Northwest. The days forward will continue to test our mettle and faith. The Change is truly upon us.   Our Lights, our faith and trust are more important than ever before. Now is the time to dig even deeper, awakening and knowing who you truly are – and believe me, we have barely begun to scratch the surface. We are so identified with the role we play in this one life that we cannot imagine being something more than that. In many cases, we are just beginning to recognize our shadow self and begin to welcome home those unloved parts of ourselves. This work is essential but we all must dig a little deeper, opening the door to our most Sacred Self.
I ask you to spend regular time in the coming days in meditation and hold both humanity and our world in Light and Love. See yourselves connected to all who came to Light the way forward in these dark days. Keep fear at bay, knowing that all is well, that all will be well.
Message from the Mother:
We are gathered here under my welcoming arms to change the world, stripping away all illusion and misconceptions. With alliances old and new working together with the Light of Love, we come as guardians must to clean away the toxic misalliances and abuses that have become so prevalent. As any loving parent would do, I have allowed time/space for mistakes to reveal themselves and corrective action to be taken.   Instead, the addictive love of power has has become the prevailing focus. Power’s heady appeal seduces but like any addictive substance, it becomes its own prison. I will clean house in my own way, assisted by my sisters and brothers.  
I speak to you, from the heart of Hearts. This wanton abuse and desecration of my Creation and my children will be addressed. The rage of the crumbling patriarchy will yet erupt and I implore you to remain in your hearts. Allow the Light of the One to fill your hearts and souls, trusting that all is well. His days are over and he knows it and hates it with all of his being. He has over-identified with the part he was to play and now resists its passing. The blinds are open, the doors thrown wide, and none can be closed again.
All is well, my children, the Awakening is here and the Truth will be delivered.   My Love knows no bounds.
