Dear Jeanne,
What is your message for today?

A committed approach to utilizing the energy for personal growth requires change. There can be no growth if you do not commit, wholeheartedly, to change. This requires that your physical body also commit to change and desire a transformation. In order for any progress to be made, must the physical body align with the spirit. When I speak of falling back into old habits, you must admit that most of those old habits have to do with the physical aspects of the self, including bodily comforts of pleasure, pain, emotions, and such factors as feelings, all within the context of your physical form. To truly advance now, must a certain amount of self-discipline be applied to the process. As always, must this curtailing of the physical habits be well balanced. I do not ever instruct that you become a dictator to the self. That would be absurd, and your progress delayed due to the inability to flow. But, I do ask that you take on the traits of a warrior, and this requires a discipline of conscious action leading to an impeccability of intent.

Impeccability requires conscious thought regarding the truth of every action taken and every decision made. To be a warrior spirit is to be aware of your own physical habits and behaviors, desires and traps, and to work hard at changing, so that you do not become slowed down in your growth by constantly having to deal with interruptions in your energy by that which seeks to over-consume. In over-consumption of your energy by the physical needs and desires do you lose valuable time, and progress is hampered.

Attach the word “warrior” to your daily intent regarding the growth and progress of the self. By taking on this intent of impeccability that is implied by a warrior spirit, your focus may begin to gain in sharpness. With your focus thus honed do you offer your self the gift of fewer distractions because you will be less drawn to giving away your energy, especially as you begin to experience it in new and useful ways, better suited to change. In order to transform must there be commitment to engage in such change, but this also requires focused intent in order for anything to really happen. You can construct a shiny new vehicle for your self, but it won’t go anywhere if you do not have the proper gas to feed it. That is intent, the new fuel that will send your vehicle out into new worlds of adventure.

Your warrior abilities are not in question. They lie waiting for your discovery of them. Find your focused path, clothe and feed your self with your intent, and then take action by doing all that is required, now, to enact change. Stop thinking and talking about it so much now, and do it! That’s all I have to say about it.

All right. Is there anything else you’d like to talk about today?

No. Stay focused on your path, adding intent, with conscious decision to change, to shift, to flow, to balance, and to become aligned with the energy as it disrupts life as you know it, urging change upon you all, and the planet earth as well. The energy seeks to wake you up. Don’t you feel it rattling you and shaking you out of your slumber? Time to get serious now. No more talking, just doing, with impeccability, with conscious focus, and with your inner warrior making your decisions now. Spirit + Warrior + Intent = Change. And change results in evolution, and this, in turn, opens the door to what lies all around you just waiting to be noticed. Aren’t you intrigued?

Dear Jeanne,
Do you have a message for us today?

Abide by the rules of behavior for a seeking life. Do not neglect the path so bravely sought and found. Do not fall to the wayside, or wallow in slovenly despair, but continually pick your self up. Continue on, in spite of what is taking place in the world around you. Remain aware, and urge awareness on others, teaching this new method of perceiving and taking guidance from the signs that are constantly offered to aid you.

For now, even as the entire world does suffer, as the energy turns the world akimbo, do not get thrown from your inner knowing of what is right. Even as you, as an individual, must be aware of energy, and act accordingly in order to have, not only safe passage through life, but also growth and evolutionary change, so must the world itself follow a similar principal and path. As the world, the very earth, does suffer from too many sitting beside their paths rather than doing the work of the self, so is it important that you do not contribute to such stagnancy.

Lift yourself daily from reverie of such stagnancy. Do not contemplate stopping or turning back. Do not become part of the problem, but remain focused on solving the riddles of your own life, and then proceeding onward and lifting your dilemmas from that of the earth you now reside upon. You are all responsible, and must remain so in order for true evolution to take place.

The earth cannot alone shift direction. Ironically, mankind is forcing a shift, and yet it may not be in the best interest of mankind, but rather a devastating clearing out, as Mother Nature turns beneath you, shaking you off as an animal does shake off a predator or a parasite. Do not waste your life wasting the life of the very earth who supports you on your journey. Do not waste your time needlessly upon that earth, but focus now more concisely on finding your true purpose.

Are you an earth watcher? Are you an energy seeker? Are you a seeker of your own truths? Are you really ready for change? Wake up now, and open your eyes, your ears, and your hearts to the truth of the energy that seeks now, constantly, to cause change. It is available to aid you, and to catapult you forward, but it is also constantly ready to grab you and take you back to old places no long habitable.

Find your balance in your life. Find your true purpose. Find your keen awareness awaiting your discovery, and make your way through the veils that hang across your path until you come to the wide open planes of no obstruction, no veils, where clarity is as crisp as fresh air, and your journey will become more focused. But this requires seeing now, even in the muck and mud of the energy that seeks your attention and your energy. Clear your eyes constantly, and use your intuitive heart-centered knowing to guide you.

Focus then on your place in the grand scheme of this great change. What is your role? Who are you really? Uncover your innocence. If you must go back to something, go back to that. Rediscover the innocent wanderer inside you, and invite that aspect of the self to join you. Reconnect with this important inner self, and then see what you see. Then will you understand clarity and awareness, and then will you be able to understand your mission in life. With your ego left behind, your purity in front, guiding you, may you rediscover all that you know, and all that you truly seek.

You have not lost anything; you just have not found it again. It does but hide inside you, waiting for the right moment to tap you on the shoulder and remind you that you are innocence, and you are pure, and you are energy just waiting to find resonance. Find resonance first within your self. Meet your desires within the context of your own energetic being, and then venture outward, finding your most suitable profession in a new, changed world. For as you change, so does the world change. This time of great upheaval is part of the energetic push for innocence to be born again, yours, the earth’s, and the innocence of knowing and understanding all worlds. Do not be part of the problem, but become the solution. Begin with your own life. This is my challenge to you today.

Dear Jeanne,
Another weekend is approaching. Do you have guidance to offer for the next few days? What will the energy be like?

The energy continues to ride roughshod if you are not alert and aware of the power punch that it packs. With awareness is it possible to hang on to the reins and ride it with perfection, enabling your journey to progress. With determination will you succeed while at the same time remain aware of the undercurrent that does attempt to unseat you. This duality of energetic flow will continue unabated now for a few weeks. The most engaging and apparent energy will be available for harnessing for your usage while the slithering undercurrent will seek to muddy your path so that you may slip and fall.

Watch out. Keep alert. Be aware of what comes at you to whip you from your saddle and unseat you from your steed. Be also aware of the back-wind that pushes you along, and may send you farther than you are prepared for at this time. Remain in command. Become the leader of your own energetic response to the energy above and below you. Do not get caught by either, but ride smoothly between the two, skimming above the slippery undercurrent, and keeping your head just touching the grand energy above that is so enticing. Utilize your skills of balance, of good sense of self, and of inner knowing to guide you through this time of voracious energy. It seeks your participation, but it is up to you to ascertain just how much you are ready for and capable of. Use common sense; use your awareness of your past, your present, and your future to guide you through this time of energetic trial. All time is now. All experience is meaningful for now. Do not dismiss your past as finished, but recall your lessons from the past in order to retain your firm seat upon your steed. Keep your head up, focused on reading the energy as it seeks to engage you. Turn your attention from allowing your self to be engaged, to systematically deciding when and where you choose to be engaged. By determining your engagement of it, do you offer your self the opportunity to grow with it, and in spite of it.

The energy has a dual intent. It seeks to test you, and it seeks to promote you on to a new level of awareness. If you fall off your steed, do not wallow in the mud at your feet, but simply climb back on, giving your self permission to go on. Ride a fine line between the energies of progress and deception, and you will do well. But remember, that one line is above, the other below, and this may make all the difference because when your head gets caught it leaves your feet unattended, and when your feet get caught may your head forget to partake in the freedom being offered by the energy above.

Be aware that a new kind of balance is called for now because you do want to engage in the goodness of this energy, affording your self the possibilities that are offered, but you do also need to remain grounded and focused on sensible living. It will be a challenge, but look forward to it with confidence. Remember, all time is now, so nothing is unimportant. Everything matters, but it is up to you to understand what this truly means in your own life. Be assured that lessons abound. But do you notice? And then, do you learn what you are meant to learn?

Stay alert and focused on your path, even as you bounce up and down upon your trusty steed and you touch a little too far into the heady energy above, and then down into the heavy draw below. Be aware, constantly, that this is the energy that exists now. Remain in balance. See what happens!

Here is the message for today:

Dear Jeanne,
Do you have guidance to offer today?

Find that equilibrium I so often speak of, and navigate from that calm place of centeredness. Use your awareness to guide you. These two processes cannot be stressed enough, for without such balance, and such awareness, will you remain lost in the veils of oblivion.

Seek clarity. Ask for clear seeing and clear insight, but do not force your self into a false sense of such abilities. Allow them to come to you. They will be revealed when you least expect them, and how they come to you will be not as expected either. “Seeing” is a gift that, if you are not aware, may pass by you if you are trying too hard to achieve what you may think is meant by “seeing”. Seeing is not only using the eyes, but also using your inner knowing to be your eyes now. Sit back from your intense and penetrating stare at life, and allow your calm centeredness, and your awareness to be the captain of your ship.

Be alert so that you do not miss the utter truths being revealed to you, for they hide in the veils, and you may be granted only glimpses of them. Will you notice? Will you be drawn to the flash of knowing that accompanies these glimpses of truth? Who are you really seeking in your life? Who do you really seek to find, to connect with, and to know? Who really hides in the veils, keeping hidden from you all that you yearn for?

It is only your self, and your own truths that beckon and play hide-and-seek with you. Sit back in calm centeredness and accept that now; with your awareness alert and ready, is it time to finally look clearly at the truths of the self. Who am I really? Allow your self to be found. Catch a glimpse of your self as you run around in the veils, the oblivion of life. Then catch your self by the hand, and part the veils, and take a good look at who you are. Allow your calmness to remain balanced as you shed all judgments, preconceived ideas, and all old thoughts that have controlled your ideas of the self. Defrock this captured spirit self who has been hiding from you for so long, and from your deep inner calm really see who you are. Then will come clarity. Clarity will come in a word, an utter truth that will be undeniable. Whatever it is, do not back away from it. Do not let go of the hand you have grasped. Do not run away from the truth of the self. Do not allow the veils to close back over this true self, and this clarity that has been revealed.

Hold your awareness steady in your gaze, and take with you your knowing, this insight you have learned about the self, back with you through the veils of your day, and keep it clearly in your thoughts, a new insight. Use these techniques to revisit your self often, to discover who you are. Take time daily to go on an excursion in your ship, as the navigator, seeing clarity among the veils, the fog of daily life. Gather your truths by the hand, put them safely upon your ship, and carry them now with you into your life, your future, and see what happens next as you discover who you really are.

You are waiting to be discovered. You are hiding from your self. You are available and desirous of being found. Go on a seeking journey. The energy is good for this. Stay calm, balanced, and focused on the intent of discovering your own truths and you will do well. Ask the energy to aid you.
