#213 A New World Has Arrived

Dear Jeanne,
Wow, the week has gone by quickly. It’s Friday again already and the holidays are soon upon us. Do you have a message for this weekend?

Abide by the new rules of demeanor, and guide your selves through the coming days with foresight and intent upon progress. Your path lies waiting your discovery. Do not hide from that which attempts to aid you in your growth. Do not block the steps that appear to lead you where you need to go. Do not thwart your own spirit as it requests your participation in continued growth. For even as this season does approach and does tease with habits of old, so is this a new year, and new directives have become your habit now.

To remain in true spirit balance now must “simplicity” be your main mantra. As the holidays seek your attention, allow for a shift as you remind your self often of the new simplicity that is required by your seeking spirit self and the world at large now. There is little room for indulgence, but utter clarity, in the fact that there remain many ideals as yet uncovered that need attention, is necessary. Offer gifts of knowledge to your self often now. Remind constantly that the path is different, the world is different, the expectations are different. Change your own world now during this great time of shift, and enable further growth to take place before the New Year arrives.

Guard your energy, but give of it as well. Hide your intent from prying eyes, but reveal it in your outer being. Do not fall into old habits, but do remain active in your daily rituals of this season. Remain steadily balanced and seeking correction if you falter or get drawn into old places. Aid your self by recalling the new words of guidance to remind you to remain bathed in simplicity, focused, with your spirit invited to participate as never before.

Do not be afraid by the frightening turn of events that may shake the world as a great shift now takes place. Do not succumb to thoughts of flight or frantic notions of devastation, but take in what you have been learning, and know that this is what life is needing now. A great shift is imminent. How you react, now, is important. Do you flow with your calm spirit, so ready for growth? Or do you choose to return to old habits of behavior? Even a reluctant spirit offers growth, and progress can be made as you attempt to decipher meaning in seemingly meaningless events. But always is there a message.

Everything is meaningful. Everything is possible, and everything is part of a process of evolution. Do not forget these things. Your days may be quiet, with little blips of disturbance, or they may be nervous and agitated, with a great shift to rock your boat. But no matter how you react to the consequences of this time of shift, so maintain, in your awareness, that all is necessary. Whether but a seemingly small blip or a loud and shattering BOOM, so will a great shift occur. This I have no doubt about. Will you notice it taking place if your interference is of the quieter sort? Or will you run and hide if your shift arrives in loud overhead interference? Either way, you may miss the message, but think on it later, and follow your inner knowing. It will guide you to understand what my messages have sought to teach, that a new world has arrived, and life must be lived differently now, with awareness, and with truth, and with spirit pointing the way. It is inevitable.

Keep your awareness always in your pocket. Even as you enjoy your holidays, or if you are not the celebrating sort maintain always your vigilance of spirit awareness. Life seeks to teach even greater awareness; and we seek to aid you in being available to that awareness at all times. As shift takes place in your life, remember to shift your own awareness to wondering where the lesson is. And what is the meaning? And what step comes next? And what does this mean in the larger context of my journey and my evolutionary growth? It’s all about growing, learning, and journeying ever onward.

#212 Ten Steps to Becoming a New Citizen of Change

Dear Jeanne,
What is your message for today?

I am certain that most of you now upon that earth, no matter where you live, what country you call home, are aware of the changes taking place in the world around you. You are also greatly aware of the need for change in your own life. My mission is to enact change, first in each of you, and then far out into the world around you. As you learn new rules of life, and as you become more aware, and more cognizant of your energetic environment, so do you offer your self the abilities and motivations to change. As each of you begin to shift your own world, so do you shift and nudge worlds adjacent to your own. In this manner is awareness spread.

There continues to exist a great need for awareness of dire circumstances. It is no longer fashionable to ignore what prosperity and globalization have done to upset the balances that so precariously exist in nature, and even inside each of you. Your own balances of the physical sort, mental, and spiritual sort, do all suffer as a consequence of the greater imbalance that has been created all around you. Do not deny your own doings, for all who reside upon that earth are responsible for what is happening around them and inside them. All of you owe yourselves, and the world at large, much compromising and contemplation in order to rectify the great changes that have been inculcated. This example of the possibility of change already exists, and though it is as example of change gone awry, so is it clearly also an example of the possibility of change. All it takes now is the reverse, the persuasion and suggestion from that of consumerism, and consumption, and greed to one of simplicity, peace, and compassion, with enough for all to live and prosper, with focus now shifting to purity, innocence, and truth in order to accomplish this so greatly needed shift.

Do I ask too much of you? I don’t think so, for all I ask is for your inner knowing to come out into the world now and become the new citizen of change. All of you have within you the ability to change, to simplify your lives, and be contented with life as a journey, not of material riches, but a journey of inner growth and evolution. You know I do not ask for you to go out of balance at all. You live in the world and are expected to fully embrace your life there, but you are also expected to give equal time and consideration to all else that exists and asks for your attention.

To live a simple life is the first step. To become totally responsible for your self is the second step. To accept that you are a spiritual being is the third step. To understand that the world exists as a learning ground for evolutionary purposes is the fourth. To behave as if you have little time to accomplish a great deal is the fifth. To hold on to your focus of intent is the sixth. To abide by the rules of behavior for an evolutionary being is the seventh.* To maintain, at all times, an outlook that is balanced, practical, and spiritual is the eighth. To understand, fully, your own life, your reason for coming into that life, why you must live it, and where you are going next is the ninth. And the tenth is to always, always stay in your truth. Truth matters above all else, for without truth will none of the others matter. For how can you exist in perfect balance with your self and your environment, if you hide from the truths of the self and the world around you?

You have all created a world for yourselves. This world belongs to you. No one else has created it, except you, by your choices, your actions, your decisions. So take full responsibility for it, and determine, right now, where you want to go next. What will your next step be on your journey? Are you unhappy? Do not blame others for your unhappiness, but instead understand your own actions already taken, and take responsibility for your journey that has unfolded to this point in your life. Once you own your own life, fully take it on, absolve all others, and your self too for where you are now, so do you free your self to truly move on.

Begin a great unburdening in order to achieve a new simplicity of spirit, and then tackle the other points of growth that will aid you on this amazing journey that you now take through this most consequential time upon that earth. All of you are living in great times of change. Do you not see that? Are you not thrilled to be available at such a moment in earth’s time of shift? Are you not able to allow your self the freedom to become a new person, who can take the journey now being offered?

Find your balance, your equilibrium of spirit and human form, and embrace your abilities to learn to function in a new manner as the great shift now begins its inevitable roll into the future. Grab onto your awareness, for you will need it. But go into the future with foresight, and knowledge, and alertness that this is your choice. Take responsibility for the change, and determine that it is desired and wanted, above all else, for it is the only way to learn and grow, and eventually evolve. Be a part of the change, by energetically and spiritually fully embracing it.

I urge change upon you, as do many others; our missions send messages through messengers of all variety. But most of all, we seek to incite awareness so that you have the opportunity to wake up and become part of the change, with this new awareness intact, rather than one day waking up in a daze wondering, “What happened?” The world is changing. Are you?

The Archives Have Been Updated

Dear Readers & Journeyers,

Please note that the Archives have been updated so that all of the original Messages to Humanity, previously circulated through an e-mail list beginning in December 2006, have now been transferred to the website. Today’s message refers to a breathing practice orginally described in a message from June 2007, available through the archives.

In addition, we continue to offer The Book of Us as a free download on the Store page of this website until January 8, 2008. Thereafter, it will continue to be available for a minimal fee.

Thank you so much for the feedback on the book, the messages, and the website in general. We offer all of this to you as our own contribution to promoting an evolutionary life.

With warmest regards,

Chuck and Jan

#211 Listen To Your Heart

Dear Jeanne,
Do you have any words of guidance for us today?

Absolutely! Listen to your heart as it tells you what to do. If you cannot hear its voice then slow down, get centered by doing heart-centered breathing, and then will you feel and hear your most inner voice speaking only truth to you. From this heart-centered place of truth must life now be lived, for there is no other way, as the world does not abide much longer in its current state, or with the sloppiness of denying long lost traditions. By this, I mean the current trend to overdo, to over-consume, and to deny that there is heart-centered truth.

Sloppiness hides truth. Laziness does not allow for much growth. On a national level and a worldwide level is there great need for shift, for change, and for a return to innocent wonderings. In order to turn the world upside down is it time now to turn your own world upside down. No longer deny that you do in fact have a very vibrant heart-center that speaks to you and guides you. Pay attention to it in order to impact your own life, those around you, and begin to change the world beyond your own small nucleus of living.

The world does revolve around each one of you. Each of you has impact and each of you has great potential to change the world. As each of you begins a concerted effort to change so do you bring awareness to others that change is possible. Do it without fear, and without denying your own inner voice telling you that it is high time to do life differently now. This may mean any number of things. To some it may mean beginning to discover what heart-centered truth means. To others it may mean finally listening and paying attention to truths that have long been speaking out. To others it may mean finally making the change they have planned for a long time.

Trust that now is the time when great change is energetically supported and aided, for this it true. This is what I have been speaking of now for many months. Even though there are ups and downs, so is it also apparent that the greater force of energy is positive, and with intent, awareness, and trust in the truth of the self is there potential for much success. I wish to urge change, decisions for change, but I also urge those changes to be heart-centered, healthy changes for the self and the world around you. In order for these changes to be long-lasting and viable in the future, must you consider that the world, as you know it, is rapidly deteriorating and will not sustain such frenzy for much longer.

Exhaustion does sabotage Mother Earth. Even as the energy does push for change, so do the rampant denials of the utter living organism of earth itself bring change. And this change may not be to the likings of the human population, but so is it just because of this denial that humanity has caused such a ruckus. Play a new part in the shift. Rather than denial of your own part in the demise, take responsibility for your place upon that earth, and shift, first to your own heart-center, and determine how you may have the greatest impact as the Grand Dame does roll askew now, and toss aside the parasites upon her back.

Switch now to a renewed interest in life as a multitude of journeys. Each journey leaves its traces upon the terra firma, yet is there still opportunity to shift to a new level of consciousness now, changing your individual path, so that you tread lightly, in balanced consideration of all that you do, and all that your own life impacts the earth, the energy, and the potential for continued life. Find your balance as a living being upon the living earth; breathe your heart-centered breath to discover who you really are in the context of the meaningfulness of everything and the long term effects of your life and your future life.

Evolutionary growth allows for great shift, and this is the message I ultimately bring forth with my mission. The world is asking for change, the energy is asking for change, the universe as an evolutionary prospect does also ask for change. To remain earthbound by the billions will no longer be feasible. The future does not bode well for sustainable life, yet are there many souls awaiting re-entry and re-birth of awareness upon that tired earth, great though she is. This mission is one of many to enlighten the now living to the facts of evolution so that there may be a great unburdening upon that earth over the next century.

Find your own path upon this evolutionary journey of change, and travel that evolutionary journey impeccably. Begin now to unburden the earth of your own demands, and take upon your self the responsibility that is required for one who treads lightly and travels with awareness. Leave little waste behind you. Take what you need, and give just a little more back. Treat the earth well. Treat your fellow travelers with love and compassion, and remind your self often that every step you take, every decision you make is meaningful for now, and for your evolutionary future.

Proceed now forward on your journey with a new idea of your self as a lightly-touching-down being, aware that this is the final journey to that plane. Intend now to unburden the earth of your soul’s continued journeying by focusing on continuing your journey in infinity, with a mission of service and continued growth. There are other worlds to explore, worlds of energy that do not utilize physical necessities, as is so upon that earth plane. There is much potential upon that earth now to understand and fathom that each are you responsible for your own evolution, and this is what our many missions seek to teach and guide you to accept.

There does exist an urgency upon that earth now to change. Look around you at all that no longer appears to function as it once did. There are many shake-ups being enacted, and many changes being presented on all levels of life, and in the energetic forces that utilize humanity for sustenance. Become part of the awareness that things must be done differently now. Do not fear your own truths. They seek only to enlighten you to the meaning of your own life, the truth of your evolutionary path; and fear but hides what you know is your future.

Open the door to your future by opening the door to your heart. From this place of inner knowing be guided, be calmed, and be daring. Change your own life and you change the world. But all of this talk of change must be from the heart, or it will not have the desired impact. Once heart-centered focus is adopted so will there begin to be a renewal of earth’s resources and potential. For though that great earth does suffer greatly now, so is her power of rejuvenation great beyond words, but she will recover only on her own terms, and that may not be to the liking of those who do not understand the truth of evolution.

Be an evolutionary being. Intend life from your heart-center now. Hear your truths, and your direction will become more apparent. Live life patiently, quietly; go lightly, and continue to be aware, alert to the signs around you; and please, be kind to your self as you go. Everything will happen as it should, but you, with your awareness, can be prepared for it, and for your own journey ahead, so that your choices may continually be for growth, evolutionary growth.

A Note Regarding Heart-centered Breathing: When Jeanne speaks of heart-centered breathing she is referring to an exercise outlined in message #77 Heart-centered Breathing from June 8, 2007. This message is available in the Archives.

#210 Acquiesce to the Power of Receptivity

Dear Jeanne,
Do you have guidance for us today?

Include in your holiday preparations, whether they be ritualistic, personal, or traditional, your new awareness in order to remain open to giving your self a true gift of growth. Only in remaining open to the offerings of our connection, with those of us who aid and assist you, will you be able to correctly interpret what you are given.

Be certain of your own place now, on your own path of growth. Find your equilibrium, your centered stillness, and remain aware of all that you have lately learned in order to receive the gift of guidance and knowing that awaits. The possibility of connection, and thus the possibility of guidance, remains in your hands. Are you not only receptive, but also open energetically? To be open in your mind is one thing, but to acquiesce to the power of receptivity is another.

Do not be afraid as I continue to invite your participation in this new worldwide phenomenon of receptivity and awareness that does sweep across your world with a great energetic push. For even as wind does blow, so does this energetic sweep ruffle through your energy field, seeking your notice. In order to intercept it, in order to gain inner awareness of it, must you become supremely aware of your own inner calm energy.

Seek today to feel your own energy. What does it feel like? What is your true energetic current really like? Find your self constantly reminding your physical body to go into a state of calm throughout the day. Just small reminders will be enough to invite calm into your physical body, and then, in that calmness, entice your mind to release all of its ideas and concepts of what energy is, and just feel it.

And as you feel your own pulsing energy, allow your self to feel the other energy outside of you, merging with yours. Invite the calmness of it to flow through you, and calm you further, as you go on an experiential adventure into the energetic universe. Carry with you this receptive quality now more often. Thwart your attempts to block it or dismiss it, but instead remind your self that you are seeing, and feeling, and experiencing life differently now. This you have already decided. Now make it happen. Make your body respond to your lessons of awareness by allowing it to open to the energetic flow of guided connection. We await your reception.

Is that all for today?

Yes. It is a good day to feel our energy as we nudge you to notice. Be open, receptive to us, keeping in mind that life is different now because you are viewing it with a new perspective, that energy is available, just waiting. And don’t forget: Everything is Possible!
