A true warrior always chooses a path with heart. A warrior chooses love over hate, kindness over malice, compassion over disregard. A warrior does not turn away from that which challenges but instead turns toward the strengths within, for a warrior knows that everything that is necessary to travel a path with heart lies waiting to be discovered within. A warrior knows what intent is, how to serve and conserve, how to be open and how to protect. All these things come naturally to a warrior on a path of heart because such a warrior is fueled by that which matters most, now and forever, and that is love. A warrior on a path of heart turns to love and love returns the favor.

Our audio channeling today, very specifically, advises us all to do our inner work as a means of navigating the world we live in now.
We all have inner work to do. It’s the work of the life we live, whether related to karma, to life choices, or to circumstances beyond our control. Inner work is a path of heart.
Do not be hindered from traveling your path of heart. Let neither fear nor the opinion of others keep you from that which is your truth. Stay upon your path of heart because it is your only choice, even though you may have to do so at your own expense, going silently forward in a world of your own making. For often a path of heart may not appeal to others, though those of like mind will understand your decision and support your choice to travel through life with your heart leading you to fulfillment. Your path of heart may be a simple life, a complicated life, a creative life, a giving life, a powerful life, a solitary life, but the main thing is that it totally be your choice, based on your heart’s intent, completed by your body and Soul wholeheartedly getting behind it and living it to the fullest. With joy, knowing that you are doing the only thing you can do, travel your path of heart. With love for all you have known and all you have yet to meet, travel on with joy in your heart.
What are you waiting for? How many times are you going to keep telling yourself the same old lies? When are you going to stand up to the old ways and say no? You make think you have things right, but that may not be true. Question your assumptions. Maybe you never got yourself right to begin with. Maybe the path you’ve been pursuing isn’t the right path after all. Take another look from a different perspective. Be vulnerable, and open yourself to another viewpoint, another possibility, another answer. There’s no time like now to make a change. Dare yourself to turn in a new direction, be open, and see what happens. Drop your fear, for that is your greatest crutch, and trust that something good will happen now, for there is plenty of good going around. Why not tap into it and allow yourself a taste of it? Let goodness reign within yourself, even as you wish it to be a fact of life outside of yourself. As you wish goodness for others, wish it for yourself. The idea is not that farfetched. Make a wish, set an intent, be open, and see what happens. Nothing is certain, but you can certainly give it a try!

As if regressing America to its glory days of industrial giants and fossil fuels weren’t enough, we now have England being spurred to reinstate the dominance of the British Empire. Thank you, Hindu science, for the framework of Kali Yuga as a rational framework with which to understand this fantastical end of an era.
Never underestimate the value of a psychological defense. Of course, defenses obscure reality, but they do provide a perch to rest some cohesion of self upon, especially as we absorb the impact of the meteor of now.
In shamanic nomenclature, we are all experiencing a blow to the world assemblage point, that collective agreement that has for so long provided us with the consensus reality we have known as our world. The impact, however, is not Armageddon, unless one chooses that interpretation. The alternative is to choose awe in the face of sheer magic.
Indeed, the fanciful tricksters in charge now are the circus sideshow performers that incite and attempt to fixate our attention with their boastful charades, but they are not the main event. True, they have some hypnotic powers to peddle their versions of a new assemblage of reality, but their efforts are really just fleeting distractions.
The main event is Nature herself, as she rapidly reshapes the face of the Earth. Denial is one masterful defense. Indulge it while you can, but its foothold is shaking in its boots. At its core, even the human animal senses the mighty changes afoot.
The gift of now is the opportunity for fulfillment in this time of completion, for that is what we are dealing with now, the completion of one cycle before the beginning of the next. As our illusions shatter, the shadow comes to light. Who really could deny that the dark side of the shadow is having its day? But enough of that, it’s actually becoming boring.
Indeed, all must face the suppressed, the repressed, and the fullness of the unknown and unloved self. Nature, in her fullness, demonstrates the way now: from the sunlight of the day to the darkness of the night, it’s time to accept and integrate the dark side of the moon. That which creates also destroys. Without destruction we’d be stuck, replaying Shangri-La forever.
On the other hand, can we face and realize the golden side of our own shadow? The energy of now, in this time of completion, is shattering the limiting beliefs that have held us back from truly growing into the fullness of our beautiful selves.
Fear, doubt, shame, and inertia have provided safe places in our old world habitat, but the new world we are entering is a world governed by the magic of intent. Intend it and it will be so. Intend to realize the fullness of you and allow the energy of now to shape and materialize that dream.
Don’t be fooled by the destruction of now. Without clay, the potter’s wheel cannot throw us a bowl. Our Earth is simply spinning and reformatting its clay. Our intent is the architectural blueprint for our place in the coming new world.
Do your part. Keep it simple. Take full advantage of the gift of now. Face and reconcile with your personal darkness, then allow yourself to become your golden loving self, fulfilled to the brim.
It truly is all about intent. Intend awe over Armageddon!
