Ann and the Angels 1-04-2013

The excerpt from Ann’s message below, and the angel’s message are both so exactly perfect. I think a lot of us have been feeling a lot of confusion, discomfort etc instead of the expected bliss and resolution post 12-21.

Despite so much work on ourselves, at least for me, when I don’t fit the mold, meet the mark etc it is easy to forget that life is not a movie and everything doesn’t go according to script;-)

I love the way this message not only reminds us to be as gentle with ourselves as we would be with someone we love(!) it gives specific pointers on HOW to get our lives to move more where we want them to be. I love practical advice;-)

As always much gratitude and love to Laura for sharing such helpful stuff every day!

(excerpt from Ann’s message)
It is so easy to get down on yourself when life doesn’t look like you want. It is easy to feel bad when we aren’t our best. But it is imperative that we remember the truth of who we are, because if we don’t we’ll take out the lie of who we aren’t on life and the world around us. So next time you’re not feeling like sweet wonderful you, take some time to care for yourself, acknowledge yourself, and focus on what IS true within you. I was still a caring and compassionate soul even when frustrated beyond belief. I was still a good person when I was wishing my dog was on the other side during the worst of it. I was still an incarnation of God’s love when I was throwing a serious tantrum to heaven about my vacation being “messed up.” In truth as soon as I remembered who I was, I felt worthy of help, I remembered to ask for help, and I got help. Suddenly my vacation went back to God 🙂 And that is where I want my entire life to be rooted and reside… in the truth that we are all made of the same stuff… the light, love, and truth of God!

Message from the Angels
My dear friends, we love you so very much.Happy New Year and as we like to say Happy New You! Happy New, Wonderful, Magical, Creative, Abundant, Prosperous, Wise, Caring, Compassionate, Loving You! For that is how we see you! This is who you really are. This is what you want to bring to the surface this year! It is a year of loving the truth of yourself. It is a year of being authentic. It is a year of being committed to being “real” with everyone and everything around you.

Look around your homes. What gives you joy? What brings you down? Look at your lives? What situations uplift you? What no longer represent who you wish to be in this world? Look at your relationships. Are you relating from a place of loving truth? Are you really being the real you? Dear ones, if you can love all of who you are, in a given moment, you can change the course of your entire life. If you can say, “Here I am. This is who I am now, and I love me! I know I am God’s love incarnate, whether I feel it or not. I know I have a beautiful heart, whether or not I am choosing to bring it to the surface right now or not. I know I have wisdom within me, whether I feel it or not,” then dear ones you will start to experience a kinder reality almost immediately. For in choosing to love the truth of your spirit, dear ones, you focus upon it. And whatever you focus upon with love is coaxed to the surface, nurtured, and experienced more deeply.

Look at your complaints! So many on earth truly love to complain. And so you focus your love on your complaints and thus they are reinforced and magnified. What if, instead, you focused on what is good, true,and beautiful with such great energy and love, for indeed it takes less energy to focus on what is good. It simply takes a little willpower and the willingness to shift your attention. If you aren’t feeling abundant yet, look at the abundance of resourcefulness you have used thus far to get by. Focus on what is good within you. If you aren’t feeling loving yet, focus on the fact that you at least are trying and that in itself shows there are seeds of love attempting to sprout. If you are not feeling healthy and well yet, focus on any little part of your previous physical vehicle that is feeling well, or even better yet imagine what it might feel like, or did feel like, to feel well.

You have so much power within you! Your power is to focus your love on whatever it is you wish to bring to the surface, experience, and magnify. Sunlight is needed for seeds to sprout out of the darkened soul, and your love is needed to sprout the seeds of power, love, and goodness within you! They exist. They are present already. Water them with kindness to self. Shed the light of your love on what is good within you. Then stand back and watch with wonder as these beautiful seeds begin to grow.

Happy New Year! Happy New You… or shall we say, Happy More Truthful, Authentic, Already Beautiful You!.
God Bless you! We love you so very much.

The good news is the planning started long ago, and the actions have been ongoing for decades;-) It’s so beautiful to see more 1st world peoples joining in now. For a long time now the most innovation, the most beautiful changes and solutions have been coming from places like India (see Vandana Shiva’s writing for many wonderful examples and references), Argentina with Horizontalism(that led to Arab Spring and Occupy and now IdleNoMore), Kenya with Wangaari Maathai’s tree planting and community building. Another wonderful place to look for the planning and actions is Yes! magazine and their website which covers so much like the above in North America and elsewhere.
When Steve wrote that this was not his field and he was just starting the conversation I was very inspired to join in since this IS my field of study and what would have been my career had I not ended up becoming a human paperweight;-)
I’ve been trying to do exactly this for almost 30 years-and the best of what I discovered is that we don’t have to plan for the world, we only have to plan for our own towns(Transition Town movement is a great place to start that planning) because there are INCREDIBLE people all over this planet who have been planning and creating beautiful solutions and creative change in THEIR own hometowns for sooo long now. Many of us have been copying them and importing their ideas and plans to help improve the supposedly superior 1st world communities where we live-because in reality the more colonized the place where you live is-no matter how much “better off” it seems, the FARTHER you have to go to get to the real sustainable, mutual, systems based, truly alive and functional part of the planet community you want to co-create as part of the new world, the Golden Age of Gaia.
The good part is, there are lots of us waking up now and willing to do the work to get there, so we should be able to catch up;-) and by so doing make the job of those innovators in 3rd world communities SO much easier since then we won’t be living off their resources.
Please feel free to comment and share the innovations you have seen where you live, and the ones you have envisioned. I know even after decades of studying I only know the tiniest tip of the iceberg compared to those of you who actually live in the communities where creative and beautiful solutions have been made to so many of the problems created by colonization. I look forward to more of us coming together to co-create new cross border and multi-community solutions as well.
Much thanks to Wes for sharing this article!

Openhearted Rebellion

Written by Steve Beckow

“The next part of your Ascension is with Mother Earth, and with our help to create a new Earth that is befitting souls who are growing exponentially and becoming fully conscious Beings. You will then be able to call yourselves ‘Galactic Beings’ and the doors will open to even greater opportunities than you have ever experienced. Your rate of progress is entirely up to you, and once you have made your decision you will have plenty of help from us.” (SaLuSa, Jan. 4, 2013.)

I said earlier that I regard it as time to begin thinking in terms of beginning our world service. I suggested two organizing principles we might begin thinking in terms of, to start the whole process of creating the context of a New World, a world that works for everyone.

I now want to suggest four areas of the globe to begin…

Thanks to Jean for sharing this today! This is really important to pay attention to-don’t let the illusions of fear get you down! That is what they want, for us to doubt our own power, to doubt Creator and Goddess and Universe. Sometimes darkness really is just a cloak of night to allow some rest before a big day…..

Third Quarter Moon Phase – Moon in Libra/Scorpio
Mercury is still causing quite a stir, moving off of its square to Uranus and moving on to making a conjunction with Pluto through the weekend. To some degree, Mercury affects our thinking. When it contacts Pluto, our thoughts can go very deep because Pluto rules The Underworld. In addition to being deep, The Underworld is also dark. Over the last several days, the trend has been to beat up on ourselves or “go dark” as in pulling down a curtain. The Third Quarter Moon phase enters this weekend to affect all of that. In fact, it is here for us to analyze where we are now as “immigrants in a new country” as the Sabian symbol of the New Moon envisioned.

Over this weekend, while our thinking is already deep with Mercury conjunct Pluto, think back to all that has happened since December 13th. Be analytical. What happened this month? Was it like the New Moon report discussed – a massive paradigm shift? If the light changed on December 21, 2012 – if the Sun changed – wouldn’t we need time to adjust?

This is happening specifically with our brains and our eyes, which are an extension of our brains; they are symbiotic. We process light through our eyes and our brains read the information contained on the light. We now have different light, which means a different code. We are going to know (understand) more and are going to see (realize) more now. We’re talking about nothing less than an evolutionary leap that’s underway. That’s quite a statement to make. But the Sun and Gaia-Sophia orchestrated, in perfect timing, a responsive action to the state of the world, the collective, the grand visionary experiment. This is how the power and control mechanisms (archontic systems) that have been in place are going to begin crumbling. This also makes them desperate. Their own countermeasure is to begin instilling as much fear, sadness, hopelessness, and depression as possible into the mass consciousness. We are tricked if we think they are not losing their power. Gaia-Sophia has begun to deal with this situation and part of that plan involves changing humanity to suit her needs. This is, indeed, a joyous fact. Analyze this: what would it take for you to see that December 21st truly was a celebration? At the Balsamic Moon phase, we’ll be releasing whatever stands in the way of that.

It is so heartening to see so many articles on this on PressTV! Thank you again to Jean for sharing them here! I hope that people will read the linked stories about racism and start to create some change in that area as well-I have repeatedly been shocked by how the so called “multicultural paradise” of Canada hides so much blatant horrible racism. I grew up thinking Canadians were smarter, cooler, more peaceful and decent-they had such a better music tv channel when I was a kid!;-) but then I heard from Native friends in Canada and had my illusions firmly shattered. I guess in many ways we do still have a long way to go-but human emotions and worldviews can shift so quickly if conditions are right! I have also met a lot of really good hearted Canadian people of all races, who are not at all stuck in that, who live in love and spread it to all they encounter. I guess that is part of the whole lightworkers bring ourselves up and then share it with those around us, the light spreads one by one, a conversation here, a kind action seen there…..

None of the articles mention this, but those of us involved with Occupy know firsthand what really *stopped* these nefarious plotters from carrying out their creepy deeds-Occupy Marines! I think we should all give props and prayers and gratitude to the real heroes who stood up for us at great personal danger to themselves(including nearly being killed by a fractured skull from a tear gas canister fired directly at his head in one case!). There were heroes from all the branches-Occupy Marines, Navy, Army, Air Force,even Coasties got involved. Without them, we would very likely have been experiencing a lot worse than what we did(which in many cases like the Marine with the cracked skull, were more than bad enough!)
Veterans for Peace and Occupy Marines were there on the ground physically placing themselves in between teenagers and grandmothers and other basically physically helpless protesters and body armor wearing, often paid-off, riot police. These men and women are heroes and should be recognized for their courage and honour and for the very significant effect they had on the safety and the effectiveness of our Occupy groups and encampments.

I have always appreciated Inelia’s perspective. I think the time scale she gives is what she “sees’ right now, but she has often encouraged us to tinker, to “vote” with our own intentions and to shift the timelines to ones we like better. The significant thing to me is the waiting is over, time to roll up our sleeves and get to WORK making this world the way we know it can be, the way we would love for it to be-clean, healthy, safe, beautiful, filled with love and abundance and peace for all living beings. None of that is beyond our current abilities, it never really has been-we just gave away our power and our confidence in ourselves. We are ready to be Idle No More-to make things happen instead of waiting for someone else to do it.
