Chuck’s Place: What Is The Matter?

Reach out to Lady Wisdom…

Matter comes from the Latin word materia, which means the physical substance that is born of mater, who is mother. Our physical body, our physical lives, and the life of our times is the creation of the father-of-suggestion in union with mother, the material substance of the subconscious mind.

Mother brings forth all physical life. The state of that life reflects the quality of the suggestions it has been impregnated with; are they of wisdom or are they of error? Wisdom is infused with impartial truth, error is filled with one-sided opinion.

Our current world is largely defined by the instant reactions of social media, from the White House on down, where the play and battle of opposites vie for dominance of public opinion, which serves as the ruling suggestions to the matter of our time.

Prior generations have struggled to establish union in response to this volatile battle of opposite opinions, often resorting to suppression, or to passing on to the future the insolvency of unrealized truth.

The founding fathers of America knew very well that slavery was immoral, but did not address it in the Constitution, forcing the future America, some 75 years later, into Civil War to resolve the issue. And though the outcome of that war ended slavery, the North and the South never came into real union.

The discontent over this imposed solution was suppressed and housed in the body of America, giving rise to a diseased nation, at war with itself, once again seeking solution in one-sided rule.  Such is the karma of unsettled solutions, yet to be resolved into the peace of true Wisdom.

These unsolved issues—be they the equality of the sexes and races, an equitable outcome of Zionism, the divine might-makes-right of kings in imperialist acquisition, or the racist intent of Naziism that seeks its alchemical gold through the destruction of its projected shadow—have all broken through from the body of the world’s suppressed unconscious, once again begging completion, as we prepare to receive the advanced wisdom of the Aquarian age we are now physically living in.

The stupendous overarching truth of now is that human consciousness is on the cusp of a major evolutionary leap that requires a clearing of all the errors and opinions that have formed the ruling suggestions to our subconscious minds, and created our current reality. Take for instance the power of suggestion itself. Once an individual awakens to their personal power to create their physical life, the sky is the limit.

Donald Trump, a master hypnotist, astutely aware of the power of suggestion, recently offered this guidance when asked about the limits on his own global power: “Yeah, there is one thing. My own morality. My own mind. It’s the only thing that can stop me.”

This is indeed a fundamental truth for everyone in relation to their subconscious mind. The suggestions to the subconscious mind are all powerful. Mother subconscious will produce in matter that which is suggested to her. The question, as Donald Trump points out, is the state of one’s morality. Is it based on the wisdom of truth, or the error of opinion? Either way, those suggestions will be manifested.

The unsolved matters of prior times, currently living through us, cannot find peace until we face them squarely and submit to the truth of Wisdom. We cannot revert to old defenses or old beliefs. These unsolved matters demand truthful resolution before we can evolve.

Resolution requires that we suspend the judgment of blame. Full acceptance, of what was and what is, is the precursor to a morality that will produce suggestions to materialize our creative potential for the greater good of all.

Inwardly, we must face the isms that have ruled our sense of self and our sense of the world. Inwardly, we must ask: Is our morality narcissistically dominated by the desire of ego for its own aggrandizement, or is it serving the wisdom of what is truly right? Inwardly, we must free our beliefs from internalized false opinions about ourselves based upon the thoughts and actions of others.

I close with this matter, the guidance and support of Lady Wisdom from Proverbs 3:16-18:

“Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor.
Her ways are ways of pleasantness and all her paths are peace.
 She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.”

Reach out to Lady Wisdom,

Chuck’s Place: Temper The Invasion Of Spirit

In the Age of Aquarius…
-Illustration © 2023 Jan Ketchel

The wholistic movement of a herd of cows as they graze throughout the day is a clear display of interdependent unity. This positive side of the herd instinct is countered by the dangers of a group mind where the impulse of one member can become a contagion of lethal proportion. This was on tragic display in Memphis, with the brutal killing of Tyre Nichols.

We are solidly in the Age of Aquarius whose salient impulse is the herd instinct. At its highest level, this collective concern for all of the human race is the evolutionary path we will be on for the next 1000 years, as we wend our way through the Age of Aquarius. That collective intent will deliver our future world to solid footing, eventually.

Social media and political parties throughout the world have settled into large herds with lowered consciousness. These independent groups react with lightning speed, bereft of deep reflection and morality, which frequently eventuates in impulsive, aggressive, and, at times, lethal consequences.

Aquarius is an air sign whose spirit rises above the Earth on the mental plane. Its capacity for rational, civilized thinking to address the true needs of the whole is its modus operandi. The compensatory depths of the Earth, which harbor the deeply irrational forces of nature, which are part of our wholeness, may be devalued or completely underestimated from this view from above.

WWI and WWII were major eruptions of the irrational dimension of human nature, as science and technology jettisoned to become the superior function of humankind, supplanting God and religion, which once offered reconciliation for the rational and irrational sides of the psyche. War is the compensation when spirit negates the fullness of nature.

The war in Ukraine is actually WWIII being played out, with tenuous balance, by all the major powers in the world attempting to prevent its contagion beyond its local borders. Nonetheless, the irrational is bursting through all over the world in mass shootings and in conflicts in intimate family relationships. Though everyone must be accountable for their behavior, let us not be naive as to the power of the unconscious to take possession of ego sovereignty.

Channelings from Judge Hatch, Letters from The Afterlife, and Jeanne, through Jan and archived here on our website, have assured us that the Earth, though vastly changed, will endure and evolve beyond the next millennium.

Thus, we can trust in the ultimate success of our Aquarian ideal. However, we must face the likelihood that the next few centuries will be dominated by conflict. Our challenge is one of patience, a call to courage, and a reconciliation with the multi-dimensions of who we truly are, spirit in all of its many forms.

The Greek gods on Mount Olympus demonstrated the law that the gods must be propitiated, or else. Even the one God of modern Christianity has its shadow.  As individuals we can best propitiate the gods by finding them within, facing and reconciling with our own shadows.

The gods/spirits rouse us in dream, projection, thought, sensation, intuition and emotion. Listen to them, acknowledge them through interaction and action, which give expression to their messages. Stay true to the ideals they espouse, in alignment with our true potential as individuals and as a collective whole, despite the limitations of the real in everyday life. At all costs, keep ego deeply grounded in the truth of these numinous encounters and the truths they reveal, lest it get swept away in a contagion of volatile energy.

Don’t get ruffled. It’s our destiny, but approach it practically by practicing discipline in all things. Get into balance with all spirits, positive and negative, to balance wholeness and forestall the invasion of too much spirit of the wrong kind. Stay in the commonsense of the heart; think with the heart not the head.

Reconciliation with spirit requires ego to be at its scientific best, as it journeys to discover and reconcile with the depths of its fuller spirit self. First and foremost, steady the breath, calm the central nervous system, and acquiesce to the true journey of your own lifetime.

Steady,
Chuck

Soulbyte for Thursday October 18, 2018

At the dawning of every new age there is chaos and turmoil, there is darkness and even despair, and yet there is always light showing the way. Focus on the light. Though it may be far in the distance, hone in on it and draw yourself forward towards its tiny pinpoint in the distance. That tiny light is what you seek, the time of coming out of the darkness, the time when all will be different. Make the journey through the darkness an experience as rich as what you hope for when you reach the light. Savor its riches, for indeed it is the greatest time in any lifetime, the dark holding far more riches than imaginable. It is a time of learning about the powers within the self, about the mirror of light within the self reflecting outside of the self in that pinpoint of light in the darkness, for it is you that has placed that light in the distance. It is you that makes the journey. You are the journeyer, the journey, and the journey’s end too. You are all that you experience. You are the creator and the created, the light and the dark, the pain and the joy of this journey to the new age you seek. Keep going toward the light. Let the journey unfold. You’ve already dreamed it; you’re just remembering now.
