Dear Jeanne,
Do you have a message for us today?

Watch for signs of alignment. Be observant of how the signs in your own life correspond to what is happening outside of you, as progress continues to be made. Universally, is this a time of energetic convergence. The potential for continued strides to be made on many levels exists, is available, but awareness of this aspect is very important to maintain. In your daily lives now, My Dear Ones, notice and utilize what is being offered. Study your place now with an eye toward swift change, but make your moves in alignment with your inner knowing and your heart-centered place of calm.

In accordance with the wheels of progress, is it time for not only significant change, but truly meaningful change as well. This is what you must focus on in your own lives. Yes, it is universally a time of change, but in order for it to be lasting, and for it to aid you in your own evolutionary progress, do I suggest that your steps of daring be deeply significant and meaningful for you.

Just because this is a time of shift does not mean that every opportunity is the right opportunity. It does not mean that you should dare your self simply because daring is asked for. You must place your self in alignment, not only with the energy around you, but also in alignment with where you are in your life, with what is being offered and shown to you, and with what your heart knows is right. Do not leap simply because this is a time of leaping. Leap with daring awareness, not with abandonment. This is the sobering counterbalance to this energy that now pushes so forcefully for you to shift. In many aspects of life upon that earth is it so necessary for change to happen, but in order for it to be of lasting significance, so must you calm your self to a state of right knowing before you act.

So, take all of my messages of daring, place them around you, and sit in centered calmness around them, then find your inner direction and begin there. Often is such energy best utilized first innerly, rather than in some grand outer scheme that may change your life drastically, but perhaps not correctly for long term growth and gain. Where are you in your life at this very moment? On a roller coaster? On a precipice? On the brink of disaster, or the train of unending thoughts that do not subside? Are you in a whirlwind? Are you caught in a dark place, a hidden place, an exposed place?

None of that really matters, you know. The only thing that matters is that you remain connected to you, to your inner you, in alignment with your evolutionary goals. Keep in mind that you are seeking the truths of the self, that you are searching for answers, and for direction for your existence upon that earth in this lifetime. You are seeking a deeper spiritual connection, but this must first be a deeper connection to your own spirit before any other.

So although you may feel pressure, even from me, to leap about at one opportunity or another, so do I prefer that your leap be innerly, rather than outerly, if nothing outside of you truly resonates. That being said, if you are in just alignment with some outer aspect that is timely and right, so do I suggest that now is the time for such a leap if you have so determined that it is so.

You are in control. Keep that in mind. But your control must now be aligned with your spirit self, and not your mental self who simply repeats the rhetoric of old. Your control must be placed in the hands of your willing spirit self now. Ask that inner aspect of self to lead you to your proper place of daring. Push aside your old determinants and your old arguments now, creaky and dusty with usage and age, no longer appealing, but still powerfully present. It is time to hand over power to your knowing spirit, so eager for the opportunity to guide you. If you align your self with this aspect of self, trusting its decisions made in calm awareness, so will your leaps into change be leaps of daring coated with right knowing. That is what is most important now as you continue your journey.

Good Luck. Please retain your awareness of guidance, your openness to viewing your life as a journey unfolding and necessary, but also as meaningful, leading you to fulfillment. Your inner spirit self asks now for the opportunity to show you its purity and innocence, but it also asks you to totally trust it as well.

Dear Jeanne,
Do you have a message to guide us today, as we begin a new work week?

My Dearest Ones, this time now is one of continuing conflict of opposites, of pulling apart, but also of counteraction, required to bring together the disparate parts of the self, the society, and the world. Why is there so much conflict? Why is there so much still unresolved inside of you and outside of you? Why is there so much fighting? Why go to war against the self and others when it is far more acceptable to meet on common ground? For all are reflections of the self. All conflicting views, all uncomfortable suggestions and encounters, all differing thoughts, are but the grit that must be sorted through inside the self for true and lasting resolution to occur.

This is a time when each of you must remain focused on your own inner process, but do not dismiss or disregard what is happening outside of you. Continue to use your world to aid you as it points out to you your own difficulties and issues that need attention. If you tend to judge the decisions of others, the thoughts, the actions, the spoken words of others, so turn to your self and ask: Do I speak, think, act, and decide in much the same manner? Am I truly learning to forgive, to flow, to depart from the old rhetoric? Am I evolving?

These questions are the present questions for Now, for this time upon that earth, for this time of change to do more than simply blow over your heads and stir you with its sweet scent of things to come. You must take in that breath of fresh air, deeply into your gut, and allow it to shake you out of your slumber and your stagnancy. Your progress must now be granted the truth of the insights being shown, and they must be processed and accepted. Now must you ascertain that you will make the leap, taking in a full breath of fresh and invigorating change, allowing your self to make the leap forward now.

No matter where you are in life now, no matter who you are, no matter what place you find your self stuck in, so are you being shown the way out of your dilemma now. Look around you and you will see the signs. You will see the possibilities being offered. You will notice something is being pointed out to you that will shift you.

But you must make the move, the decision, the choice. You must dare your self; fully knowing that times will be hard; that yes, it is the way to go because otherwise I will remain unfulfilled. In this lifetime, are you all being offered a grand opportunity to change. This is not only so for your country, or your brother, or your children. This is also true for you.

So I leave you with the possibilities all around you. Today, turn your awareness to what is being offered to you. Look outside of you and reflect on the direction of growth being offered. Ask your self: Will this opportunity lead to change? Will this step show me a truth? Will this daring move get me beyond this place I have been stuck in? Question your existence, My Dears. But do so in the context of all the gifts being offered, the signs showing you the way, and the possibilities being presented to you. Then it’s up to you to choose what you will do next.

May you trust your journey. May you feel centered and aware of your inner calm self, even as you fear the daring self who pushes you forward, even as you know you must confront other fears before you will be free. But that is what life is about, you know. It is a long process of confronting your fears. No matter what shape they take, so must they be met, face to face, then investigated, dismantled, and accepted, before being crumbled to a fine powder and swept from you, shaken off, so that you may be free to walk on lightly, trusting your journey and your prowess, with humility, gaining awareness, and learning always what it means to truly love, and to truly give love, to self and others.
