#346 Your God Must Be a Total Package of You in Your Universe

Today, A Reader asks a question.

Dear Jeanne,
I belong to a church/organization with very strong ideals, most of which I believe in. And although the vast majority of what I am learning through this work (with you) resonates with those ideals, my faith is being challenged in some areas as well. Do you have any advice on this and on religion/faith in general?

Thanks,
Eva

My Dearest Eva, look not outside of your self for the answers to your inner questions, for in looking outward do you intercept only other outward seeking concepts and propositions. Faith and religion have been misconstrued as fact, and as God-proclaimed annunciations that may have little to do with inner truth and the inner reality of your own life.

I do not dismiss such attachments to religions as wholeheartedly distant or indistinct, for I know they do offer anchors to many who struggle greatly upon that Earth. These are struggles not only within the self, but also with the world at large. Religions offer a basis, a grounding in order to make sense of all that life upon that planet offers, giving anchoring ability to those who struggle. There is great force in such anchoring, great strengths and teachings offered as well. There is the possibility to connect to spirit, to experience God as one, revelations of the self as all-inclusive in the universe and connected to all things. But I do also instruct those of you who seek innerly, to ground your energy from being invaded by too much doctrine that may hold you back from such experiences of oneness and wholeness. For not all can travel the same path, for not all have thus far traveled the same path.

Your own path must direct you on your journey, no matter what religious or faith-based connection you now caress. There are many, many fabulous lessons to be learned among the religions of the world, just as there are many fabulous lessons to be learned among the humanitarian groups as well. I speak also of the creative spirits who live among you, who offer their own connections to the wholeness of the universe in their music, poetry, and artistic endeavors of all sorts.

Do not dismiss the teachings of one religion over another, nor the pursuits of one individual over another to achieve connection with spirit. For all are valid, and all are holding within many aspects of spiritual enlightenment that fully explore and offer guidance.

But not all guidance resonates. Not all guidance is truly meaningful. Not all guidance is individual enough for you, My Dear One, or any of you. You must be allowed to explore your own inner truths. You must be allowed to think and feel freely your own discoveries of what spirit means to you.

I prefer to call religion and faith the broader term of SPIRIT. Within the self is spirit defined as: resonance, knowing, clarity, and truth of awareness of place in the universe. Have you found your own place in the universe, My Dear One? I think not yet. I perceive your seeking self is pushing you to question and explore further not only your inner self, but your outer place that the inner self must one day enter and reside in. This is the ultimate test of spirit.

Where is your spirit? Is it emerging and seeking a place of residence in your life? If so, then must you discover how and where it will fit into the outer world. Perhaps your church is offering you a place to seek this inner/outer resolution, guiding you to find your inner/outer balance, in a place that truly resonates with you. But you are the ultimate captain of your ship, and you must know who you truly are, who you are fully capable of being, and then must you not be deterred from fully experiencing your self as captain and first mate combined.

Your God must come from within. Your God must be total resonance; resonant with who you are on your path already completed and on your path yet to come. Your God must be a total package of you in your universe, and that, My Dear, can only be achieved if you are allowed full exploration of what it means to be you.

If you are your own God, what does that pose in the context of your religion and your practices of worship? Who now directs your thoughts, your ponderings, and your experiences of God? Who now approaches you with questions and offers you explorations of the self? Do you give these things to your self? Do you dare guide your self through your own discoveries of who you truly are, as a spirit, based in that physical world?

You are but energy in a world of matter, there for a reason that may have much to do with religious faith, or may have little to do with such structural beliefs. You may find your resonance in what is outside of you first, and then be drawn to seek what is inside you as you see reflections of self in that mirror of faith-based ideas. Or you may be the kind of spirit energy that must turn only inward for resonance. Only you will know these things about the self.

There are so many options and means of seeking resonance. But ultimately, what I am teaching in my mission is for you to recognize and have experiences of self in that world. Only in experiences of self, of your own resonance, will you discover your perfect balance, your place in the universe, and your energetic potential. That is what you seek fulfillment of, you know. You seek fulfillment of your energetic potential. And if you break your struggles down to that simple statement, perhaps will you find your inner quiet self is perfectly contented to slow down the looking and simply BE.

To simply BE in your self, without attachment to anything, may at first seem impossible, or even quite a fearful prospect. But if you trust your inner self to the point where you know that it is all-encompassing; your friend; your guide; your companion; and your leader-self, so can you rest there a moment perhaps, and have experience of this calm inner self and learn to trust its desire for acknowledgment. With knowledge of self as whole, all-containing, and all-knowing can you then seek outer connection.

This is why I stress recapitulation, so that you may find your inner connection to self as wholeness. Then may you understand your place as spirit in the world of matter, and then is your job simply to discover what truly does matter outside of you. If you can achieve true knowing of self, then can you achieve true knowing of right resonance outside of you.

I hope this answers your question. I do not dismiss any thing that truly resonates as having importance. But in order to discover both resonance and importance of factors in the world of matter, must you first fully know the self. And that is what matters the most, no matter what you believe otherwise.

Continue seeking knowledge of the self. That is my best advice to all of you, My Dear Readers and Seekers. Question the self, but also ask the self to reveal what it knows as you struggle. You may be surprised to learn that the inner you is already quite connected, and fully aware of just what resonates and what is spiritually important to connect to in your outer lives.

Keep doing the work on the self. It is your greatest chore, but also your greatest joy. Do not hide from the challenges life offers; they are your guides, letting you know you are truly on the right track.

#345 Accept Your Appointment With the Desires For Drastic Change

Dear Jeanne,
Do you have any guidance for us today, or an assessment of the week’s energy?

Do not harbor old fears about the self or keep the self held back for reasons of old; for now is a time of progress and forward momentum, held up by the winds of energy and change. It is not a time to morosely ponder the self, in debate with your iniquities, your ancient selves long departed, or your troublesome youth. But now is a time to swiftly move on, move forward, without regret or denial of the old self, but in perfect acceptance and alignment. Accept the self you have been as perfectly necessary, but fully align with the new self now, so that further and lasting progress may be made.

This is a time of duality. For there remains that undercurrent, which I have spoken of, that still seeks to capture not only your attention, but your very being. Meanwhile is your head stretched far above it, in the energy of evolutionary change that swiftly urges you to hasten along now and abide by the new rules of life and change.

Do not dismiss the power and desires of the undercurrent. It is tricky and manipulative; a worthy opponent of such a traveler as you, My Dear Ones who seek growth and desire change. Stay aware, alert to the abilities of such dual energy to trick even the most aware of you. Do not ever relax your awareness, for then will the old ways wash over you and thwart your progress, even if but briefly. If this happens, as always, return to your path, and take up the energy of change once again, as your fuel and your sustenance.

I cannot urge you enough to stay alert now and cognizant of your own situations, so that growth may happen. You may get drawn, quite unmercifully, back to your old stomping ground where you muddle about in the mud, unable to fully grasp why you are there. If that happens, you must take your eyes off the ground, where nothing lies, except old thoughts, actions, and deeds, and lift them upward where the clear sky awaits discovery.

Now is this time of dual energy a grand time to remain aware, so that you can actually use the energy and your awareness to catapult you forward. It is good recapitulating energy. It is good for gaining clarity and remaining steady upon your focused path. But in order to do so, must you remind your self often that the hungry undercurrent still exists, and that it will not easily give up your luscious energy that it has feasted upon all these many years.

You seek to make some big changes now. I know you do. I know all of you seek change because that is what the energy of now seeks as well. And as long as you are alive upon that Earth during this time of great shift, so does your inner spirit align itself with this deep inner desire for change as well. It is inevitable, but perhaps you have not fully accepted or acknowledged that this is so. But all of you, My Dears, are feeling it in some way, and this you must allow your awareness to understand. Your restlessness is the energy pushing at you to accept your appointment with the desires of the century for drastic change, and alertness to the need for such change.

Within your own little world, is your alignment with the need for change being asked of you. You have two choices. You can either accept that this is so, and look upward to the energy that will aid you as you accept the inevitability of your destiny with change. Or you can continue to deny the inner feelings that have been picking at you to go in this direction, and instead remain caught in focusing on the undercurrent, which would just as soon keep you in its murky place of slowly sucking energy drain.

It’s up to you, as always, to choose. And although it may sound quite obvious and clear to some of you that, of course, you will choose to go for the sky above, so does the choice not appear as clearly to others; for there are so many reasons to remain in the stagnancy, just as many as you can think of to move forward now.

Do not judge others for the choices they make now. Do not ponder why they cannot see what you so clearly see. But allow them to fully experience their meeting with the aspects of the self that must still be encountered in the undercurrent. But do not keep your self there simply to accompany them on their journey. Do not stay behind out of fear that you will lose or need another who is not ready to move on; for in denial of the self and your own needs will you do no service to others.

State your intent, both to your selves and to your partners. For this time of dual energy is also a time of partner exchange and partner dispute, but also partnering progress as well. State your own mission; your own intent to grow, and to keep going; to discover not only your own truths, but the truths of the universe. State your intent to go for the experiences of energy that you feel tugging at you, which ask that you trust them and follow them to new life.

Do not toss aside your partners in disgust or weariness, but do state your claim to move onward, unwaveringly, because it is right for you to do so. Invite them to journey forward with you now, as you lead the way out of the undercurrent. But then must you allow them to take full responsibility for electing to go with you, totally accepting that they will do their own work. You will be one step ahead of them so that they may not lose the trail. But be fully aware that each of you must confront the barriers and the forces along the route that will challenge and confront you, as an adult, as a child, as a couple, and as evolving beings and partners, if you elect to travel forward together.

So when I speak of dual energies, so do I speak of more than just energy. I speak of pairs of energies, of pairs of concepts that are not only being presented, but also must be confronted and fully addressed, with absolute clarity of seeing, knowing, and speaking. I speak of couples being challenged now, as opposites, as two aspects of the energy pulling one in one direction, and the other in the opposite direction. I speak of couples, already in sync, being tugged at to regress, or to become caught in a trap that must be encountered and then released from. For a final battle of intent will be necessary to move forward now.

State your intent to grow more clearly, and fully utilize the energy that is in abundance. This is the time to take your partner’s hand, and speak truthfully about your soul’s intent to grow. Invite your partner to take the journey beside you, but fully aware that their own issues will seek to dissuade them and captivate their every intent, until they do the battling that is necessary to grow.

Not all partners are ready, and if that is true in your case do not fear your progress alone. For this is also a time when, no matter who you are, so will your way be clear and the energy available. But your challenge will be to accept the solo journey, as a solo warrior, fully ready to move on, no regrets, and seek fulfillment in the energy ahead of you.

I place upon you all the greatest challenge of all, and that is to leave room in your hearts for compassionate understanding of all you leave behind, for all you take with you, and for all who struggle to keep up with you. Love and aid those in your care. Place your self upon your firm path, but do not lose your humility, and your acknowledgment of the frailties of your human self, as you watch the struggles going on all around you. Guide your self forward because it is so right for you to do so. But pray a prayer of intent that others may be capable of making the choice that is so right for them to make now during this time of duality, of energy of intent to grow, in spite of the undercurrent.

The journey is being shown to you. Is it a partnership? Or is it a solo journey? Is it in the energy above or the energy below? Is it as a leader or a follower? Is it as a full-fledged seeker or is it as a struggling spirit? It does not matter what stage you are at. It only matters that you are aware of the energy, what it is proposing, and that yes, you do always have a choice about how you will use it for your self. Make the choice that is right for your self, even as you make the choice that is right for your partnership.

Oh, and one last clue to keep in mind: the energy above is so much easier to handle, easier to breathe, and easier to accept. But the ultimate challenge will be to overcome your fears that the undercurrent will continually remind you of. But once you pull your self up and out of the inner darkness will you find that those fears will dissipate in the freedom of the air above. Even though your feet may remain in the deep undercurrent, so will your head be swimming in the new energy of change.

Be as a giant now, able to walk the currents below, but tall and powerful enough to keep a good stride going, your head far above, breathing in the energy of change; of good; of openness to what lies ahead; for it is truly amazing. Have no doubt about it; it is truly amazing!

#344 It Is No Accident That You Have This Child

Today a Reader asks a question.

Dear Jeanne,
This time, I am asking a question about my youngest son. He and I have a very special bond. “He marches to the beat of a different drummer.” My sense is that he is an old soul. He has always been intuitive. He now seems ready to learn more. I want to gently encourage him to develop his intuition. Is now the time to give him the opportunity to ask for guidance from you, Jeanne?

My husband and I have been teaching him about the Universe, and God, and Spirituality. We are not involved in a church at the present time. We are Catholic, and we have exposed our children to the Catholic religion, but my husband and I prefer to look at God, Spirituality and the Universe in a different way.

I look forward to your guidance…Sincerely, D.A.D.

Children, My Dear Reader, have access to far greater than you imagine. To be in a state of pure innocence allows for a natural flow of intuition and spiritual connection, especially if given permission by the parents, or others in authority. To stifle or discourage spiritual connection, no matter what form it takes, is to cover over the natural aspects of youth. But one must also be aware that each young journeyer upon that planet Earth must make the journey firmly rooted in that world in order to evolve. But that being said, so is each person’s journey relative to their spiritual presence.

As you speak of, with this boy, so does he appear to you as an ancient soul, ready to explore the realms of knowing, seeing, and awareness of other worlds; and this you cannot stop, nor can you control it either. For his own spirit will pull and direct him either way. His own abilities do not seem to be in question by you, but he must find his own comfortable manner, in his own world, for dealing with what he has been entrusted with at such an early age. I speak of awareness, for that is what he holds most apparent, and that will also be his challenge, to continue holding on to it, in spite of the world around him and the confrontations to come, as he grows, matures and understands the world.

This is a grand time to be such a child, a child of intuition and awareness. It is not easily dismissed either, for there are many who have entered that realm lately, who carry such abilities. But he must not be signaled as special in any way, nor provided with separate attention, for his journey must be what it will be, for his own sake and his own growth.

Be aware that the ego must grow and develop, but he must not be burdened with ultra-ego for what he cannot help. He carries already the burden of awareness, and that is not an easy one to bear, or to produce before the world, as he must encounter it. His world is different from your own, yet must you be his guide, for you are in contact with and have knowledge about the greater unseen forces that do exist.

His own awareness is accepting of your perspective, for it gives him permission to be accepting of his own abilities. However, I do not encourage leading him in any direction, including to me, for in so doing will you interrupt his natural inclination to explore his own inner world. Allow him to explore, even as you now seek to explore.

Your own spiritual self was stifled and misdirected, yet have you now found your way back to Self. You explore your inner self in relationship to the misguided, misdirected, and perhaps mistaken perceptions that you encountered as a child. Your own journey now points you to reinvestigating your own life, so that you may find clarity and reason for your past, freeing you to find clarity and reason for your adult self in that world.

Your own journey must be your focus, for only in resolving the riddles of the self will you truly be available to guide your young child. Look upon him now as your mirror. Do you not see that his innocence, his clairvoyance, and his powers of spirit knowing are also deeply embedded in your self. It is no accident that you have this child in your presence. He offers you knowledge of your own truths.

Treat your self as lovingly and tenderly as you treat this child. Be as cautious and careful with your own inner child, wanting to encourage immersion in inner exploration, yet also cautious to not misdirect or offer too much. Allow your son to lead you now. Allow the utterances he speaks, to teach you what you need to know about your self, your inner child, and your direction now, as you explore who you are.

I do not think you need to worry about him. His journey must be supported, and he must be offered access to all that you, his parents, can offer him. But he will follow his own path, and you cannot sway him from what he must learn about life upon that Earth, just as you too had to learn about life upon that planet, as a young and tender child.

Do not direct his life, but do not misguide either. Allow him to find his ancient spirit within, by his own explorations. Do not thwart his grounding in that world either. Protect his innocence, his physical being, but do not protect his adventuresome spirit from being offered the opportunities to grow and to evolve. Know his spirit as fully capable of finding what it needs, both in the physical world and in the spirit-seeking world.

Do not burden him with your fears, or with your desires. But show him what you have discovered works for you; but also allow the truth of exploration to be known to him, and your other children as well. For his explorations should not be limited, nor yours either. For there is always more to discover and find resonance with as you change and do your own growing.

The souls of the young ones are not unevolved, but so have they turned to life upon that planet once again, for a reason. And this is also what you must keep in mind, that each one of them has returned to do life again, for their own evolutionary purposes. And that is what you, as parents, must remind your children, that they are there for evolutionary purposes, choosing to take the journey through life for growth, and for learning what they must learn, in order to evolve to a new stage of energetic life.

Do teach the laws of energy, and the rules of evolutionary growth. Do teach what man has not dared to speak of, except in hushed tones, and as alternative and esoteric thoughts of spirit centeredness, that all of you are energy beings, encompassed in human form for a reason that only you will know and must discover.

Life is more than a journey. It is a constant uncovering and revealing of purpose, both purpose for that life, but also purpose for evolution. Why is he here, and where is he going next? Those are his questions to seek and find the answers to, as all must.

Be his guide; be his companion; be his mirror, even as he must be all of these things for you and your husband. Teach your children, but allow them also to teach you. Guide, but do not attempt to constrain or hold back what the spirit in each child must do. Do not hold them back from encountering the world they live in, for that would be as damaging as holding them back from encountering their spirit selves.

Your jobs as parents are fraught with delicate situations, as you know so much, too much, about how the world works, yet do you not want to discourage growth and independence in any child. Allow your children, all of them, to know that there is no one right religion, nor any right path, but all must have the freedom to be guided by their own inner spirit knowing. Teach them to follow always their heart, their inner guide of resonance, combined with their knowledge of how the world works. For only with such balance will they make good choices, even as you must also function in a stable and pragmatic manner in order to grow.

Teach them responsibility for the choices they make. Teach them to fully embrace and own the mistakes and missteps they take. Allow them to discover the power they hold within, to be cognizant and aware that they are on a journey, that they are spirit seekers, and that they are charged with becoming mature adults, available to learning how energy works, and how it can be available for them as they grow and learn about life.

My Dearest Reader, you cannot overly protect this child, as you wish you had been. For in protection is there denial of life. Allow him, in his innocence, to lead you along your path. Allow his guidance to show you where he chooses to go. As for introducing him to the likes of me? Well, I think he already has found his own Jeanne, (Genie), and his connection is strong. That is not the world you need to instruct him in.

Find your peace in knowing that you are the right parents for him. Watch the wonder of him and your other children, as they grow away from you and become citizens of the world, with the viewpoint you provide them with. It is not so confusing a world if you comprehend at an early age that life is a journey, and that every one you meet is on a significant journey leading them and their soul to completion. That simplification can have great impact upon the choices one makes in life.

Watch the grand unfolding of life taking place all around you. Love your children. But also learn to love your self, as you take your own journey. Become as unafraid as you want your children to be in the outer world. For their own protection comes in nothing being hidden, denied; but straight talk about the realities of the world will prepare them well for life ahead. Do not deny your own straight talk either. That is what you all need, in order to mature and grow, accepting your own journeys for what they truly are, spiritual journeys in a changing, evolving world.

Stay connected. Find your center. Live lives of meaning. Find always the connection that will lead you forward, the resonances in your life that reverberate through your heart center. Guide your young ones to understand that their own heart center is their truth center, and your parenting will be well done.

#343 When a Parting of Paths is Encountered

PLEASE NOTE: Changes to the Channeling Schedule Have Taken Place.

We have instituted a new process on the channeling website, and in the use of Jan’s channeling ability in general, by leaving some time each week for private, in-person channeling sessions. The daily messages will now appear on the website three times a week, on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. These channeling times will be devoted to answering your questions, which we heartily encourage you to ask, or if no questions are posed Jan will ask for Jeanne’s guidance in general. One day of each week will, most likely, be allotted for a weekly interpretation and understanding of the energy, since it seems to be a good topic, one that Jeanne is in tune with, and is helpful to the majority of readers. For information about scheduling a private channeling session, now available in our office, click here.

Today a Reader asks a question.

Dear Jeanne,
As I am moving along on my journey, I am changing. However, some of my friends are not. I am not sure how to handle this. Could you please give me some advice on this?

Thanks,
Eva

My Dearest Eva, your journey must proceed in the direction you are pushed. You must pursue all avenues that open to guide, direct, and also lead you along your path. Doors will open, places will be revealed, recapitulation will be taking place everywhere you look, but do not fixate on the slowness of the world around you as you do your inner work.

For the outer world will appear to you in a different manner as you do your deepest work. It may slow down, disappear from view, become amorphous, and not as real as your inner world. The outer world may simply appear as less important too, and that is as it should be. As you resolve your innermost issues, as you take your own journey, do not be surprised at others who do not comprehend the need you have to do this inner work, for not everyone is prepared, or daring enough, to investigate their inner being.

As you progress along your chosen path, so must you confront what it means that friends become less friendly, less interesting, less inviting. You may tire of others who at one time meant much to you. You may find that others do not hold what you need in order to move along at your pace, but that they hold you back. You may get tired of the same mirrors being held up to you by them; for once you have investigated what that mirror holds, so do you no longer need to keep looking in to it.

Friends who remain friends will accept the new and changing you. They may not completely understand your journey, and that is not expected, but they will hold respect for your means of growth, and that is the important factor. Even as you fear you will lose friends, become bored by them, or dispute with them, so must you, in turn, respect them for the decisions they make, the paths they take, the conflicts and the choices they have. You expect to be respected, and so do they, even though you may look upon them and see stagnancy and missteps, not in alignment with your own choices.

To venture into the deepest realms of the self, must you be prepared for a solo journey, available to undertake your solo tasks and your solo issues that will require you to understand life as a solo journey. The people you meet along the way may venture forth beside you for a time, but then depart from your direction when a parting of paths is encountered. This is how journeys through that life are set up, so that companionship and company are enjoyed, but ultimately is the journey a solo one.

Maintain focus on respect for the self, as well as the journeys that others take. Utilize your deep feelings of love and compassion to send others off on their travels, and utilize the same attributes toward new faces that look to you, a mirror of themselves. Meeting people on your solo journey reflects your own passing phase, for separate reasons, but ultimately are the deepest reasons because you give and take something from each person you interact with on your journey, no matter how tiny or seemingly insignificant.

Discover what your friends offer you. Discover what the significance is of your journeying together. Discover where you are now, and discover where you are going next. See who is ready to flow with you a while longer, and discover who lifts a hand and waves now from a distance, your companionship meaningful for a time of importance and significance, but now done, completed for this journey.

Absolve your self of feeling responsible for others, for those you come in contact with who desire your energy. Be compassionate toward others; be loving and strong. But ultimately, must you decide how, where, and with whom you will spend your energy. You will discover that people will fade from your energy field when the time is right. Do not pull them back, or disrupt their need to move in a new direction, for even as they shift and change so are your own changes being noted and respected, even though closeness is no longer shared.

To miss the company of others one once held close is, of course, a tender area, where feelings may arise. But that is a signal of recapitulation, and it is in the act of resolution that closure comes. As you evolve, learn what it means to recapitulate, for that is what you speak of now, in this question. You attempt to understand the need to grow and evolve, juxtaposed with the need to maintain a semblance of connection that, in reality, is no longer alive.

Allow your heart to guide you, your spirit to direct you, and your evolving self to release you from your old ties that have already loosened and are flowing behind you in the wind. Your recapitulation is freeing you in so many ways. Do not doubt the rightness of your journey, or the confrontations with the realities of life that you must encounter. You do not lose friends as you travel. You take with you the gifts they give you, the experiences, and the participation in your journey. Your journey is one of learning to accept that a life truly lived is one of love, compassion, and openness to change, with the ability to flow, continually grow, and move onward, without regret, if your job is well done, your inner issues resolved, and your future allowed to remain an open door.

Your path is full of twists and turns, but your view from the path, if you care to look up and out, is quite magnificent. Lift your head from the stones at your feet, and look out at the wider picture more often, to give you incentive, eagerness, and the invitation to discover the possibilities that truly do lie ahead, as you do your inner work. Seek always balance, maintain awareness of future life, and you will do well, as you take your heart-centered journey.

#342 Overall Outlook on the Week Ahead

We have made some changes to the channeling schedule. See the news posted just below today’s message for information about this, as well as information about our new offering of private channeling sessions.

Dear Jeanne,
Would you please give us an idea of the energy outlook for the week ahead, your perspective on what is to come?

My Dear Ones, I do not like to present you with too much information, for I fear that too many Readers may attach to the prospect of good or bad energy, and become unable to flow, as a result of fixation upon the forecast. But, Yes, I will address the overall outlook in this week ahead.

It does bode well for your intent of purpose to remain innerly focused, for there will be a new culmination soon upon you, a shift, that will carry much light, much relief, and much power. But it will only be useful, deeply so, if you are focused on remaining stable and intent upon your deepest issues. To simply say, “Hurray, a new energy shift!” will just not cut it, for then do you risk allowing your self to fall into the trap of letting go, and seeking compensation for the past few weeks and months of turmoil and confusion.

This is not a celebratory energy, but it is a crucial energy that, if used correctly, will in fact lead you further toward good self image, good self inner work, and good prospects for the future. But it is not an energy that should be used to compensate the outer self, or the big baby, for the hard work already done. So I warn all of you, to not go overboard in celebration of any aspect of the self, either the inner or the outer self.

Maintain your pragmatic stability. Remind your self that such energy is recurring often, and that this coming week is bringing a blip of energetic profusion, propelling in its intensity. But you must steer your self properly; conduct your self as a master warrior; the captain of your ship, who knows that with such energy must your focus and your skills remain top notch, and as highly alert as when the energy is dark and brewing with the opposite kind of intent. Whether you are entering happier waters or not, must your awareness and clarity remain keen and alert, for below the surface do the dark places remain, awaiting slips in your awareness, ready to capsize you, even on the prettiest of days, and the calmest of waters.

So yes, do look ahead to enjoying a most flowing session now of lighter energy, as a new shift happens in a day or two. You may feel it; you may be attuned or not; it does not matter, specifically, if you notice a change, but what does, specifically, matter is that you remain alert to your own inner issues. For those are the things that will lead you into trouble or not, depending on how you elect to handle them, as they appear to sabotage your days. For your innermost issues will seek to sabotage your festivities and parties, your vacations, and your calmly flowing days; that is their job. But it is up to the mature, adult, cognizant self; intent upon growth; to remain present; electing to soberly, with knowledge of the trickery that lies in the energy outside of you and inside the self, maintain stability and keep on an even course.

So My Dears, I can forecast a wild ride ahead, to warn you to remain calm, innerly calm. Or I could just say, watch out, the week ahead will test you greatly. So as you can see, I said both because both are true! It is also true that each one of you have great ability to remain innerly focused, innerly questioning, and aware, so that you do not subject your self to extremes of temper, emotion, mood, or excesses of the body, or the mind. All of you have the ability to be the adults you truly are, to allow your selves to remain on your chosen path of growth, to flow calmly through the energy; alert captains, steady warriors, because that is who you truly are; and that is who you seek to remain, at all times, no matter what the energy outside or inside is trying to do.

This is a week of testing. It is a test of awareness of mind, spirit, and body. It is a time of balance, alignment, steadiness, and straightforward focus of intent on your true reason for living. Keep that in sight at all times, using it to pull you back again to your position of control and steady calm. When I speak of control, do I not speak of your old habits of control so that you lose touch with the present, and your progress, or your path. I speak specifically of your control of your awareness; your keen alertness to remain focused on your path, which you have now been training and tweaking into a fine attribute. That is what you must maintain control of, your awareness My Dears.

Good Luck! I look forward to your progress; your stable awareness of the energy; your clarity in perceiving your outer world and your inner world, and your keen abilities to maneuver the energy that now approaches. You can do it, that I have no doubt about!
