The world is changing rapidly and so are we. One can hardly miss the alarming changes occurring by the hour. Bit because the changes in the outside world are so very visible and visceral, it is easy to miss the many rapid changes that are occurring within each of us. After all, everything out there is a reflection of us, right?

Acknowledging the changes occurring within each of us is a very important component of our daily lives, and increasingly important during these dramatically changing days. I urge all of you to make time frequently to check in with yourself, particularly now as we prepare to leave this wormhole in another week and enter new ground. Never has it been more important to meditate! It doesn’t have to be a long complicated effort. Just take the time to sit with yourself in silence. See how you feel. Quiet extraneous thought. Find your heart and sit there. Allow yourself to simply be. Allow your heart to open. Listen.

Five minutes. Ten minutes. Just enough time to center yourself, ground and find your balance done regularly will help you navigate the many changes yet to come. And many more changes are coming!

And so I am told:

Meditation is a powerful tool both for balance and for understanding. Allowing yourselves the time to explore and become comfortable in your inner world will bring you peace and alignment. The inner world is a place to discover your true Be-ing, your true purpose while allowing yourself that moment of alignment and silence which can heal, open your hearts and minds, and change the direction of your lives.

As you observe the world around you, stay aware of your centers and your hearts. View all that you see as if through a television screen. While the outside world is a projection of your inner world, never lose sight of the reality of balance and harmony. Imbalance cannot sustain its self for long, for need to be at one is a primary directive.

The war of imbalance has been played out many times and the end result is always balance. Those who seek imbalance for their own personal gain are destined to fall, yet they continue to seek their own path.

Heal the areas of imbalance within yourselves. Disharmony which might exhibit itself as abusive behavior of any kind including rage, greed, jealousy, aggression against others and cruelty must be identifying and healed – even if they are only self directed.

Be gentle with yourselves as you heal those aspects of yourself. Be without judgment for these behaviors have been a part of the human condition for millennia. Be patient. Be open. Be willing.

Teachers and guides are available to all of you for help and assistance. You have only to ask and to listen.

Why do we say this? Because in healing yourselves you will heal all you see before you.

And the time is Now.

Life is short. We hear that all the time but I really understand it now, while our world has gone crazy. This weekend was chock full from beginning to end. My daughter’s birthday celebrated with friends and family, a show in Atalanta that was gifted to my daughter, granddaughter and me by my daughter’s dearest friend and the christening of my step grandson and his sweet wife’s baby girl. So much love everywhere. I was literally awash in love this weekend, and I am here to tell you that that hasn’t happened in a while. Mostly because I have been blind.

Our lives are inundated with change and transformation, and it doesn’t feel very good right now. We are used to having a plan and a focus and right now none of our coping skills are working very well. But here is what I do know.

Love heals us, love fixes us and love remind us who we are.  So I say to you reach out to each other, connect with those you haven’t spoken to in a while, and remind them that they are loved. Remind yourself that you are loved. 

We are all loved.

This is how we make it work. This is how we heal. This is how the new world is manifested.

Love.  Just love.

And so I am told:

Love is the gift. It is all as simple as that. Each kindness you extend, each hug you deliver, each smile to a stranger, each breath taken in release, each pause in your day, this is all love.  Hate was never designed to sustain or to last. Hate is its own worst enemy. Hate divides and separates.

Love unifies. When you reach out in love to connect, you and the person you connect with are healed. You are transformed. You are informed. 

Love is the creator. Love is where it all begins and ends. There IS nothing but Love.

Hate develops out of fear. Of not having enough. Of not being loved.. Of not believing yourself worthy but hate cannot stand stand on its own. 

The world around you would have you believe there isn’t enough to go around and we would tell you that love is infinite, that love exists in every breath you take, and every moment of every day.

We would tell you that you are love incarnate and your only purpose is to be that love every minute of every day. You are the healing you seek.

Just love.

We are miles into the most transformative time of our lives and we must do so with our eyes wide open. I think we can already see that it will not be easy or pleasant – though there will be easy moments and pleasant times – but it will require our complete attention on our Higher Selves and the path before us. Most of us have travelled this road for a very long time and understand that we are here to help usher in the New World. Indeed, the new world exists side by side with the dying old world. Those without eyes
to see and a heart to listen will blindly follow the path they have chosen. The path of Light calls to those of us who are awake and we must follow its beckoning.

There will be much to distract us and divert our attention away from the light but it is essential that we keep ourselves laser focused on the path before us. Do not allow yourSelves to be pulled back into that world of chaos and division. I understand that is a hard ask because all of us will be affected by the changes that come. However, if we look back and cling to the old way of being, we will miss the doorway to the New World. Don’t look back!

And so I am told:
One can decide to soar or fall when transformation comes to call. And this is a transformation on a global level. While the choice is yours, remember that choice is a gift and must be used utilized decisively and wisely. The heart at your center is your guiding light and must be heeded at each turn. What you do for one, you do for all.

The maelstrom within will only subside when you allow your self to surrender to it. You are not a visitor, therefore you cannot remain separate. Indeed, you are the maelstrom itself. Did you ever think you acted alone? Impossible. For as you are a spark of Light, so too are each of you the Light in its entirety. One cannot be one without the other. As creator, you must choose the position from which you create. Will you create your future from a place of fear and misgivings? Or will you create from with open heart and a trust in the rightness of the moment?

Pay attention to the energy of the earth as you traverse these difficult days. She speaks to all of you with ears and heart to hear. Her energy rises, as she moves to return to her sovereignty. You must work together in the coming days. This is non-negotiable. Hear her voice whispering in your ear.

Hear the song she hums quietly, bringing possibility and hope alive. Feel her strength and the truth she brings alive with every heart beat. Feel her pulse, slow and steady, and align yourself with it. She brings change and renewal, and change comes ready or not. Hold your heart steady and allow it to guide you.

Be not dismayed by what you see for most of it is illusion and designed to stimulate fear. Fear dismantles, it undermines and it destroys. When you feel fear, you must shut it down as quickly as possible. Fear is a weapon used against you and you must be stronger than the fear that plays with you and all those who allow it entry into their minds.

The time for playing safe has ended. You are not merely a person enjoying a life here on earth, you are a soul who chose to be here on earth for this massive change and transformation. You are guardians and teachers and healers and wisdom keepers. It is time to step into your role, your purpose without hesitation and with full commitment. You are each powerful beyond belief yet you act like children waiting for a parent to rescue you. You are the the rescue you have been waiting for. You are the dragon in the night. You are all the answers you need. You are the door that opens.

Take a deep breath and let go of the future you thought you were going to have and prepare for the future you create. If you want peace and harmony, create it. If you want unity and cooperation, embody it. If you want to live in the New World, become the New World in all ways.

When darkness seems all there is,
When fear leaches hope from hearts
Trust will find a way
Doors once unknown will open
Hearts closed will will once again allow light
Unexpected partners arise and offer support
But the answer will always be
You.

“Time moves forward and still stands still. Close your eyes and align. While time is ephemeral it still confounds those without eyes to see and ears to hear. All cycles converge in this now providing choices that must be made. Each age carries it own definition and weight, one humans must abide with.

When ages ages converge, all rules fall to the wayside, allowing chance and inspiration to arise. The coming year dances with the past eliminating outward appearances. Look beneath the surface for all is not what it seems. Those who sleep will continue to look for meaning. Those who have awakened/ are awake know to stand still and breathe the now in. The magic has returned and while it seems to distort “reality” it actually makes dreams real. Question everything; accept the truth your heart speaks. The comfort of like minded souls calls to those who are lonely, those who awaken. The awaken learn the true meaning of connection. It lies not in
conversation. It lies the depths of the heart, anchoring truth and light on the earth. Gather on the bridge of Oneness, all who awaken, your union divine and anticipated. You have done the hard work. Now you hold the heart of the world in your collective hands.” jbfinley

Once again, we find ourselves facing a doorway into a new year, an ending of the old year and a new beginning, which I would imagine carries some anxiety for many. Many feel adrift and alone right now and very little in the world as a whole makes less sense than ever before, with our national and global identities dominated by change and vastly different opinions of how to implement those changes.

We can’t seem agree on religion, on government, on sexual preference, on sexual identity, on political ideology, on pretty much anything it seems.  We have become very divided, much more “them and us” rather than just us, and yet we are all still people who are simply trying to make the best of our lives and our dreams.

What divides us seems to dominate our world rather than what unites us.  We have forgotten that we are far more alike that we are different.   

And while discord “seems” to underscore our reality,  the truth is vastly different. A revolution, an awakening is happening to all those with eyes to see and ears to hear. The New Age is here, birth pangs and all, and there is no going back. The old Patriarchy is falling, despite its protestations of power and control, and women are reclaiming their true place in the world. While progress may seem slow, its movement is immutable and unstoppable. 

Change will become even more familiar to us as old illusions continue to fall and the lies behind the curtain are exposed. What is certain is that we will begin to remember that we are stronger together, and we are much more alike than the media and the power-driven would like us to believe.  

I have become much more protective of what I feed myself via media outlets.  “They” (however you care to define that!) would have us stay afraid but I don’t want to live in that world any more. There is so much joy and opportunity and promise in the world than we currently remember. It is time for us to stop following blindly and remember that we are divine beings having a human experience. Let us reclaim joy and mystery, magic and love!

Allow the Light to lead the way.  In these confusing days, as the Old Earth passes away and the New Earth is made manifest, finding our way forward can seem uncertain. Have I done enough letting go of my old way of being, any inauthentic behaviors or beliefs? Have I begun embracing who I am in my entirety? Am I in communication with my Higher Self? Ask yourself these questions.

And so I am told:

Humans are an interesting species. They are capable of great emotional depth but often lack the wisdom to raise that depth to its highest good. They are easily influenced by those who seem to be in power.   We say “seem” because all power on Earth is illusory.  It exists only when you allow it to.  Humans have forgotten where they came from and who they are, so we would like to remind you.

You are each divine sparks of the blessed Light of Source who chose to manifest on Earth as She goes through this troubling, difficult time of Rebirth. And Rebirth it is, into a new age, one of healing and Wholing, one of unity without division. You each chose to be here at this exact moment to move everyone forward, toward unity. This is a sacred moment in Time and Space, one that should be experienced wholeheartedly, with reverence and with complete focus and attention.  

There are still many who would hold you back, whose fear of the unacknowledged future and their subsequent loss of personal power and overwhelming greed for “more” is greater than the possibility of union over division.  Their voice is loud and penetrating, hard to ignore, but ignore it you must. The louder they are, the more fear they are experiencing. Those in power thrive on domination and fear, greed and distrust. Do not allow yourself to be taken in by them. They are desperate people who fear losing their power and assets above all else and they remain in power by keeping people small and afraid. Despite the visible chaos in the world, do not be distracted. Chaos, whether real or manufactured, serves to interfere with the path toward unity, one all humans are actively engaged on, whether they are aware of it or not.  The only pathway forward is unity and it cannot be stopped now. 

You have always been so much more than you imagined, living as you do in a world of “them and us”, feeling disempowered at every turn.  In the coming days you will begin to realize how powerful you are, as you begin to actually create the world you live in. Each act of creation must be approached consciously and deliberately so that you do not recreate the life and past you are leaving. Learning to let the heart lead the way will quiet the incessant chatter of the lower mind.  

You are being meticulously guided through each step and doorway, both by your Higher Selves and by those who acts as your Guides. Conscious intention sets the course forward and the past you leave behind opens the doorway.

Make a conscious effort to listen to your Heart and the words of comfort and direction it whispers to you. This is Truth, not the nonsense being projected by those who seek to control.

Within each of your hearts is a brilliant light that holds the undeniable truth that all are one, despite color, race, income, religion or any other category of division. Fear will diminish the Light but nothing, we repeat, nothing can quench the Light within each of you.  

Seek for that Light for it will guide you to healing, to unity and to each other.  Silence the voice of fear, for it will lead you astray.  You are the offspring of Source, composed of Source and to Source you will return. Allowing yourselves to seek that Light in others serves as reminder of the Oneness, the Light, that connects all humans. 

In this Season of Light, a symbol of the perpetual Light of Source, from whence we come, we urge you to welcome the return of the awareness of the Light within each of you. As the Doorway to the new approaches, open your hearts fearlessly to all the possibility it brings your way.

Doors, he told her, are change, and change is a dangerous necessity. Doors are revolutions and upheavals, uncertainties and mysteries, axis points around which entire worlds can be turned. They are the beginnings and endings of every true story, the passages between that lead to adventures and madness and- here he smiled- even love. Without doors the worlds would grow stagnant, calcified, storyless.
