Dear Jeanne,
What can you tell us about the energy today, and what can we expect from it?

My Dear Ones, your progress is rooted in your awareness. The process of opening the channel to your awareness is continual. Your keenness is growing each day as you pay attention to what is happening all around you. But do you get it? Do you get the bigger picture? Are you aware that you are significant? Are you aware that everything you do, think, and act upon is significant and as meaningful as what you expect in return? Are you aware that not only are you a player of importance in that great picture, that playing field of life, but every move you make affects the entire game of life?

Live your lives not only with awareness, but live your lives with knowledge that you do make an impact. Your presence upon that earth makes a difference and you are of significance. This greater awareness may appeal to you, as you go about your busy lives, for you sometimes forget that you are playing an important role. I know that it is so easy to fall into complacency and forgetfulness of the bigger picture, but I warn you, today, that there is no time to forget this. During this time upon that earth, there is a great need to be aware of your significance, and the need to take action, to remain an active participant in life upon that earth. As I have said, you are living in a time of great significance and of great proportions, when everything, even the tiniest, most insignificant aspect of life, has great meaning and potential. Do not dismiss your self so easily from the equation, as you may have done in the past, even for a second.

Look upon your selves, My Dear Ones, as most important for the future. For progress to continue on a positive, spirit driven level, must all of you wake up to the fact that you all play a role, now more than ever. The times call for polishing your uniforms, getting out onto the playing fields, and getting into shape to live life differently now.

Taking on the challenge of approaching life with new tactics is not a burden, but a gift. Do you see? It offers you the opportunity to shift, a reason to become who you truly are, for the times call for truth of spirit self to reign over the old means of expression and ego driven self. In the old ways, your spirit driven self was kept hidden, present, but left quietly sitting in the shadows, in the background. You went about your lives doing what was expected of you, fulfilling prophecies that had little to do with your truths, except that every move you made gave you the opportunity to discover those truths.

Now do I offer you these new means of living your lives with a new perspective. The times call for change and this is how to change your self-perspective, so that you may be an active player on the field of a changing world:

1. You are a being comprised of energy, an energy being.
2. You have an important role to play in life.
3. Your every move impacts the world.
4. You are truth driven, a seeker of truth, and
5. You are unafraid now, for there is no time for fear.

Give your self the permission you need to fulfill a new prophecy that is based on your spirit driven, truth seeking, and truth expressing self. Allow your self to accept the fact that the world expects and needs your participation. It needs your spirit driven energy in order for the energy of good to take over and sweep across the playing field of life, with everyone using their energy for purposes of spirit, truth, and positive impact.

The world will stay the same if you do not participate in changing it. The energy of change is being offered, but it requires participation for it to truly happen. Can you accept your own significant role in the game of changing the world? That is your challenge, but also your awakening duty, you know. You are beings of energy, placed upon that earth to evolve, but to evolve with meaning, with significance, and with impact. Every step of your journey has meaning, significance, and impact. Get it?

Your challenge is to truly accept what this means. Keep doing your inner work, for that is the self who knows what I am talking about, the one doing the evolutionary journey of significance and meaning, impacting the world, every step of the way.

Dear Jeanne,
I would like to ask you to offer us guidance for this week. What can we expect energy-wise for the week ahead?

Continue to focus your attention on maintaining balance in both your inner world and your outer world. This balance will become more important as the week goes on. There is energy now that wishes to stir, and to stir deeply, the insecurities of you as individuals and as a nation. In order to maintain sanity of mind during such times, it is wise to remind your self often that every step of your journey is necessary, whether it be your individual journey or your collective journey.

I do not like to predict. I wish instead to simply offer this reminder of keeping balance at all times, for it is the best training you can practice. It will aid you, no matter what comes to greet you. Practice inner calm and inner balance at all times, so that as life unfolds you will be well-versed in how to achieve a state of calm pragmatism, for that is what life calls for now, during this time on earth.

Await not disaster, but do await change. Go into your week fully expecting that some changes will take place; that situations will arise that need tending to; that your concepts of life may be shattered, broken, or forced into new perspectives. But keep always in mind that these shifts are necessary maneuvers on the part of universal desire for growth and change.

You are living in times of unusual proportions and circumstances. Nothing can compare to the amount of support being offered either, and this is greatly due to the fact that more and more of you are receptive to the ideas of collective and universal, support, guidance, and cooperation. These principles, though widely disputed, are known to those of you who have had experiences of such phenomena. I ask that you continue to trust your experiences and that you look forward to more of them, with an openness that defies reason, for that is the best method of connection. Use your heart rather than your head now. Use your inner knowing, your uncovering inner self, to lead you and guide you to this openness that is having effect all over the world you live in, and in other worlds as well.

Your time upon that earth holds so much potential. You are beginning to understand this and accept that you are there for many reasons. But the greatest reason for being there is to release your self from the bindings that have held you fast there in reincarnation after reincarnation.

Allow your knowing inner self to be freer now to accept your life as it has been unfolding. Be gentle and kind to your self as this opening and accepting process is unfolding too. As your life unfolds, as you allow your trust in your life to unfold, so do you allow your trust in that which is outside of you to unfold, as it will, too. Do you see that all you really need to do during such times is to trust what presents itself, what occurs, and what is shown inside and outside of you as all being part of the great unfolding, taking place all around you?

Solidify your place upon that earth today. Firmly plant your self in that life for reasons of evolutionary growth. Whether or not you grasp the full meaning of your existence, at this moment, is not important. But your continual openness, trust, and availability to the experiences of life are important. Accept your appointment with life as it continues to unfold. Trust your journey and the journeys being taken all around you. Use your new knowledge to guide those in your care, and in your nearness, with compassion and love. Allow your opening process to also be used outside of you, for greater good, for purposes of compassionate intent that all may resolve their issues, accepting their journeys without judgment, but with mature, balanced ownership of what life offers them. Be responsible citizens of your own lives, but also responsible citizens of the world you live in.

Your energy is given to you to advance from that world. But do not leave that world without leaving your mark. Make it a mark of meaning; a mark of truth; a mark of new openness, new perspective, and great change, so that others may learn from you.

Teach what you know. Follow the signs in your life as they come to show you what it means to live a life of fulfillment and significance. You are guided, but so must you also learn to guide others, with compassionate non-judgment. This is your challenge during the times you live in, for these are the things that will be tested. Your ability to pass beyond holding onto your judgments of life, and others, is being tested, as you learn what it means to develop a new perspective on life as it unfolds in unique and stirring ways.

Be prepared to be challenged. Be prepared to be tested. Be prepared to have your socks knocked off, in one way or another, as this time of unfolding continues to ask you to change your thoughts about every aspect of life as you have thus far lived it.

Look ahead now to universal change. Look ahead now to opening your hearts. Look ahead now to being asked to trust the journey you are on more deeply than ever before. And remember always, the original proposal I made, to stay in balance, but a balance of openness to all things, to all events, people, and ideas, for all are valid. All things will shift now, as change continues to open doors and ask you to participate in life upon that earth differently now.

As doors open before you, open your selves too. That is how you will flow with this new life that is already upon you in great force. And keep in mind that you are energy, first and foremost, and everything else is too.
