Changes are happening. And there are more changes coming. If you think the
Earth is in dire straits now--wait. For many, this seems to be a crazy,
chaotic, senseless time where we span the length and breadth from the
sublime to the ridiculous.
Globally, we can see that religions are at one another's throats again with
terrorists popping up on both sides and both are extremist in nature. How
they go about their extreme beliefs and actions may be base and savage or
more thoughtful, using group energy and the media instead. Either way, the
extremes are here and activated. Extremes can only survive and thrive on
FEAR. They are fear-based and fear-runned and this is an important concept
to grasp.
Mother Earth is hurting from us humans who have fouled her air, water and
soil. We need to take responsibility for this and our choices we've made.
There's an old saying that a dog never shits in his own back yard (even the
animals are smarter than we are....so much for human intelligence) and we
have shit in our own back yard--the Earth we live on. So, we have
collectively poisoned our planet on our every level. We have made it toxic.
It is a reflection of us at our most base, selfish, narcissistic and
uncaring.
With Pluto, the planet of ultimate transformation conjunct the Galactic
Center of our spiral arm galaxy where we live, there is good news. Add to
this potent mix is Hades, the planet of 'dust to dust' where we have an
opportunity to 'come clean' and wash all the dirtiness (our wounds, our
negative, selfish way of living presently) and turn it in for something new.
This is going on RIGHT NOW as of February/March/April 2006 for the first
time in over 265 years. Then, beginning in December, 2006, we start the next
stage/test/expansion and work to move into our heart and this goes into
early 2007. During this first pass of Pluto conjunct the Galactic Center of
our spiral armed place we live, is our chance, our Grace, to make another
choice and clean up our own act. Understand that we cannot make others do
what we want.
THE IMPORTANCE OF YOU AS AN INDIVIDUAL
Ultimately, the only person we can 'fix' or change is ourselves. But if
anyone reading this article decides to work with the information provided
herein, you can begin to make powerful, positive changes within yourself
that will turn you from a Dark person into a Warrior for the Light. We are
all light bulbs. Did you know that? If you could see a person's aura, it
shines. The more we are of the Light, the brighter it becomes. The more we
are of the Dark and caught up in our own web of selfishness and lack of
sensitivity or awareness of other or our planet, the dimmer our light in our
aura.
Quite literally, we are all light bulbs. Wouldn't you like to stop hiding
your light, your heart (which IS your light) under a bushel basket and shine
like a beacon to the world to change it to the LIGHT? To the positive? To
the Cosmos? To help bring Mother Earth and all her relations back into a
beautiful, peaceful, coexisting harmony with one another?
Of course you would! And I'm going to share with you how you can begin to
clean out your own closets of wounds, negative attitudes on the
mental/emotional and spiritual level. We are at the precipice of a time like
no other in Earth's history and you can choose to be a dimwit or a beacon.
And either choice is just fine. There is no judgment on this. Only where
your heart and spirit is calling for you to go. So, as always, choice is in
your hands.
I would like all of you to go to a website called
http://www.crosstheriver.com Down at the bottom of the front page you'll see
the word FREE. Just click on that. There is a free download by the author,
Petrus (James Copping), and I urge you to click on it and make a printed
copy of it and read it. You just may find yourself in those 23 pages that
he's so generously given to the world. Equally important, please read my
articles "Crack in the Cosmic Egg", and a follow up article. Lastly, read my
third article on this called "Initiation"
These three articles were written in 2005. Petrus, the author, has several
books that I feel also sound the alarm about the changes and has a wonderful
way of speaking to the changes that are occurring right now and will
continue to up through 2013. If you feel so moved, buy his books, absorb
them and become them. And I have a technique for you to reach this place
that he refers to as the "New World." Read on....
EARTH IS ABOUT TO EMERGE FROM DARKNESS...
We are coming out of eons of darkness and shortly, Earth will transit into
the light once more. The changes for this started with the Harmonic
Convergence in 1988. Did you notice that ever summer after that, for 9 more
years, usually between June and July that there was a release of MORE high
frequency energy sprinkled around our planet and us? Sensitive people felt
it keenly. Every year, the energy of Mother Earth's aura, the place where we
live, was heightened, increased and moved at a faster speed. She was
preparing for this coming out of darkness to move into the dawn of new
light, hope, and peace upon her wounded, ravaged body. And the good news is
that we, as travelers upon her body, have the same opportunities and choices
as she does.
There is no question Mother Earth has prepared herself for this "light leap"
or 'quantum leap' or "Cosmic shift' as I refer to it, into the higher realms
of energy which is nothing but pure love and compassion. She WANTS to go
there. She's suffered grievously for eons with humans upon her in wasting
wars and now, pollution at every level. She has gone through her "Dark Night
of the Soul" and because she has held the vision for peace and coexistence
upon her body, she is now going to receive a cosmic reward for her holding
the vision and bar to the positive and to the Light.
She is going to transit, make a quantum leap up to another entirely new
level as her gift, reward and Grace for hanging in there even though we were
doing major damage to her on every level. We were, in essence, her Dark
teachers who wounded her. She had a choice as to what to do with us and what
we were doing to her. She has loved us instead of destroying us. She has
been tolerant with us instead of turning to us in rage and loosing a storm
of epidemics that could wipe out the human species in one, fell swoop. She
had been patient with us instead of shaking us so hard that we would fall
through the cracks of her own skin and be destroyed. She persevered. She
held the faith that goodness would win over the Darkness and the deeds of
destruction that are sown from us. She held the compassion that we are her
children and she loves us, despite the savage damage we have done to her.
She has loved us, despite our childish, irresponsible, selfish actions
toward her.
Mom Earth deserves this coming Grace. But so do we fought peaceful battles
to try and keep her clean and unpolluted! Even though we have not been good
stewards to her, we can still aspire to the Grace because we CHOOSE to do
so. The coming energy that Mom Earth is going to move through is available
to anyone else here who lives on her, without judgment. What does it take to
want it? Simple. Free will choice. A desire to choose peace over war. A
desire to choose tolerance over hatred and prejudice. A desire to see all
living things coexist in harmony amongst one another instead of killing or
destroying them with wars of any kind. If you find yourself desiring these
things, then you're ready for a leap of consciousness that is coming
shortly! To say that we live in an 'interesting' time, according to the
Chinese proverb, is true. But more to the point, we live in a very exciting
time where there are boundless, positive qualities and gifts open to anyone
who CHOOSES to partake of them.
GETTING 'THERE' FROM HERE
I know many people are probably scratching their heads and saying, "Yes, I
want peace on Earth, not war." And, they agree that the pollution must stop.
But how do you lift a world consciousness with all our relations in tow? You
don't. What you do is lift your OWN consciousness. We can never affect
anyone else but ourselves. And if we focus on cleaning up the 'dirt' in our
own self, then the world is one drop closer to peace instead of ongoing wars
and terrorist of all kinds. God/Great Spirit/Buddha/Islam/Hinduism and all
the other great religions of the world--and whom you privately believe
in--are within us. The truth is, we were never separated but that is what
you were all led to believe. With God within, there is no duality, no
separation. So, the first awareness we must make is that God is within
us--not outside of us as we were taught. Although, God is there, too. God is
inside, outside and all around each of us all the time--nonstop, 24/7/365.
Focusing on yourself is the first tenant of changing world consciousness:
one person at a time. This may seem futile, but if you put a bucket under a
faucet that drips, over time, that bucket is overflowing with water. The
moral of this story is that EVERY person counts. You are ALL important to
the process for the quantum leap in consciousness that is coming by 2013. It
doesn't matter whether you are rich or poor, famous or unknown, have an IQ
over 200 or of 50. Everyone counts. Why? Because everyone has a heart and
this journey,this race for the dawn and the light of emerging consciousness
is a heart centered marathon.
THE Vesica Piscis SYMBOL AND ITS MANY MEANINGS OVER THE AGES...
There is an old symbol, much older than anyone can remember, beyond
Christianity, beyond Rome, Greece and Mesopotamia. It is known as the Vesica
Piscis symbol. Latin translation calls it the fish bladder. But don't be
detoured by this name. Looking like two circles overlapping one another, it
has been called the symbol of the 'fish' (because it is shaped like one
where the circles overlap) or 'the eye of God,' because it looks like the
shape of an eye, as well. I call it The Eye. Eye of Horus, for example.
There are many 'eye' motif's and myths/legends around the world.
The Vesica Piscis is easily one of the most profound geometrical images of
ancient and modern times. It is, for example, considered to be an integral
part of the Ark of the Covenant, as described and shown figuratively by
ka-gold's version of the Vesica Piscis. The latter article, in fact, ties in
rather nicely with the so-called Hourglass Nebula described at the end of
this Alexandrian webpage.
Essentially the intersection of two, overlapping spheres, the Vesica Piscis
(including the interior portion of it, and/or the more common two
dimensional version) represents, among other things:
1. The joining of God and Goddess to create an offspring.
2. A symbol for Jesus Christ.
3. In art a pointed oval used as an aureole in medieval sculpture and
painting.
4. The uterus of the female goddess (or Mother Mary's womb).
5. The basic motif in the Flower of Life.
6. An overlay of the Tree of Life.
7. The formative power of polygons in mathematics.
8. A geometrical description of square roots and harmonic proportions.
9. A source of immense power and energy.
10. As such, it is also a doorway or portal between worlds, and symbolizes
the intersection between the heaven and the material plane. The shape of
arches in gothic architecture is based on the vesica.
11. The shape of the Vesica Piscis is derived from the intersection of two
circles, the Pythagorean "measure of the fish" that was a mystical symbol of
the intersection of the world of the divine with the world of matter and the
beginning of creation. To the Pythagoreans, the whole of creation was based
on number, and by studying the properties of number, they believed one could
achieve spiritual liberation. The Vesica Piscis was the symbol of the first
manifestation, the dyad that gives birth to the entire manifest universe.
Within the Vesica can be found the triangle, the tetrad, the square, the
pentacle, and many more polygons, making the Vesica a true symbolic womb.
12. The shape of the Vesica Piscis is derived from the intersection of two
circles, the Pythagorean "measure of the fish" that was a mystical symbol of
the intersection of the world of the divine with the world of matter and the
beginning of creation. The Vesica Piscis is used in a wide range of
symbolism.
13. The Latin term Vesica Piscis, meaning "Vessel of the Fish" is the most
basic and important construction in Sacred Geometry. A Vesica is formed when
the circumference of two identical circles each pass through the center of
the other. When a Vesica Piscis is viewed horizontally, it looks like a
vagina or a womb which is why the Christ child was often pictured inside of
one. When the Vesica Piscis is viewed vertically it looks like the shape of
a fish. Amazingly, the above two Vesica Piscis each have a horizontal axis
equal in length to the gematria value of the Greek word for "fishes."
14. The Vesica Piscis is an ancient symbol used in Pagan culture, Christian
symbolism and sacred geometry, as well as various other belief systems. This
enduring symbol is so old that I would suggest it was 'born' during the age
of Lemuria, the first world upon Earth, eons ago.
15. The two overlapping circles represent the physical world on one side and
the causal or spiritual world on the other. The section where they intersect
is the akashic or etheric level and is the "bridge between heaven and
earth."
In the earliest traditions, the supreme being was represented by a sphere,
the symbol of a being with no beginning and no end, continually existing,
perfectly formed and profoundly symmetrical. The addition of a second sphere
represented the expansion of unity into the duality of male and female, god
and goddess. By overlapping, the two spheres, the god and goddess created a
divine offspring. It also shows the integration of the male/female that Carl
Jung has talked about and that is the path to the Individuation process. The
Vesica Piscis motif (and its derivatives, the Flower of Life, Tree of Life,
and fundamentals of geometry) has a history of thousands of years and easily
predates virtually all major religions of the current era.
The son or daughter of the god and goddess is associated with the
overlapping of the spheres -- the resulting three dimensional figure
somewhat like an American football. In the case of Jesus Christ, the two
dimensional figure has also served as a symbol for the miracle of the
fishes. (The "tail" also served to more easily identify the source of the
plane figure.) There is also conveyed the spiritual power originating from
the interior of this symbol.
Virtually every medieval church in Europe uses as a standard motif, the
Vesica Piscis in two dimensions. The fact many of these churches were
dedicated to the Virgin Mary or to Mary Madagalene (aka the goddess) is
simply part of the understanding. Several of the churches in northern France
are even located in such a manner that their points of light recreate the
"lights" of the constellation Virgo. In Glastonbury, England, the site
normally attributed to Avalon (the island of the Goddess), is also where the
Chapel of St. Mary is located -- the latter which is apparently patterned
with the use of the Vesica Piscis.
The goddess of any and all religions which recognize her power and
significance invariably use the Vesica Piscis to identify her. From the
overlapping pools of water and the chalice well cover in the goddess's
garden in Glastonbury (aka Avalon) to any number of representations of the
Tree of Life, the goddess and her ability to create and birth life are
celebrated.
Robert Lawlor, in one of the best books available on Sacred Geometry [Thames
and Hudson, 1982] notes that the Ö3 contained within the Vesica Piscis is
"the formative power giving rise to the polygonal 'world'."
In Mark Percy's Appendix to the unique book, Two Thirds, [Aulis Publishers,
London, 1993] the square roots of 2, 3, and 5 (three of the first digits in
the Fibonacci Numbers) can be geometrically calculated. This is just an
inkling of the possibilities. And, for those who are into mathematics, 3 -
Square Root of Three - 1.732 : 1 - Vesica Piscis.
In 1996, a Crop Circle in the shape of the Vesica Piscis appeared in
England. Anyone stepping into the inner portion of the two circles'
intersection could feel a sudden rush of energy. More dramatically, is the
Hubble Space Telescope photo of the ineptly named Hourglass Nebula
http://hubblesite.org, in the center of which is a dramatic, colorful
object, supposedly the remnants of a dying star (one about the size of our
Sun). The green spot, in fact, is larger than the size of our solar system!
The photograph is so dramatic, in fact, that it has appeared on the cover of
National Geographic [April 1997]. The fact that it is out in space, in our
spiral armed galaxy makes this a symbol of the Universe, not just on our
Earth.
Now that you have a better idea of the definitions of Vesica Piscis, we need
to explore why we want to utilize this symbol to help us leap into the New
World or be prepared to transcend into peace rather than war, peace rather
than chaos, peace rather than hatred and all the lower human emotions.
USING SOME STRING...
Sometimes, people like to make things complex when simple will do. And this
is basic and simple and anyone can do it. All you need is a ball of red yarn
(or your favorite color). Or, just plain string. I prefer yarn because it is
easier to handle and has some weight to it. But, if you're on a tight
budget, some plain old white string from any store will do. You need to cut
two sixteen feet (16') lengths of yarn/string. The reason is that each
string is going to make one circle large enough for you to stand within. And
you need two strings to make two circles that will overlap one another.
I know you probably think this sounds crazy but before you make a judgment,
test it out. Science was built upon trying something and then repeating the
experiment. And if you want to prove this doesn't work, you need to try it
to do that.
vesica piscis symbolMAKING TWO INTERLOCKING CIRCLES OUT OF STRING
I would try this inside a house or structure rather than out in Nature
(although if you don't have enough room inside, go out to your lawn,
instead). Take one piece of red yarn and create a circle out of it, making
sure the ends are touching and connecting.
Next, take the second string and create a second circle. But this time, make
sure that half (or less) of the second circle overlaps the first circle.
There should be a 'fish' or 'eye' that is created as this yarn intersects
one another. Congratulations! You have just created the Vesica Piscis
symbol!
TESTING THE Vesica Piscis
There are some rules to the road in utilizing the Vesica Piscis (VP). First,
step into one of the outer circles (either side) of the double circle, but
not into the 'fish' or 'eye' area. When you get into the single circle area,
ground yourself (see silver tree roots gently twining around your ankles and
the tip of the root going down through each of your feet and several hundred
feed down into Mother Earth), close your eyes and bend your knees slightly
(we call this 'soft knees'). Take two or three deep breaths down into your
abdomen and out your mouth. Stand there for a minute or two and see what
happens.
Next, open your eyes and step OUT of the single circle. Go to either end of
the 'lens/eye/fish' and step into it. Close your eyes, soften your knees,
take a couple of nice, deep breaths. Then, see what happens.
Many people experience many sensations in the eye . You can suddenly be
pulled forward until you feel like you're going to tip over your toes and
fall. Or, you can feel pulled backward to the point where you think you're
going to fall over. Or, you may feel a strong pull from your left or right
shoulder. It may seem that you're doing what I call, 'adjusting' by moving
one way or another. This adjustment is about getting your aura or energy
field, back into balance and harmony. Once that is accomplished in the eye,
you then can experience an incredible amount of things.
Some people see a color or two. Others see a person, sometimes, their Master
or spirit guide or a loved one that has passed over. Or, some will hear
music, or their hearing will be sharpened and accentuated. Words, sentences
or instructions may be given. Other times, places, incarnations or your home
planet may be shown to you. No two people will ever have the same experience
because they are uniquely different.
What is the point of working in the eye of the VP? This is a way to access
our own integration process, clean out our dirty laundry within us (our
wounds/negative emotions, ect.), and heal yourself. When you sit and
meditate in the eye, this is one of the most profound experiences you can
have.
The VP is about healing. And opening up. Don't be surprised if your heart
chakra flies open and you feel tremendous love pouring down through you. As
you are filled up with this love from the Universe, you, in turn, can give
to others. It is a win-win situation.
The VP can put you in touch with a special teacher in Spirit. You can
receive positive and reinforcing guidance as well. Past lifetimes may unroll
like film on a movie screen to you, too. The VP, in the finest sense of the
word, is a DOORWAY. To where? Well, you must sit in there and find out. The
VP is not only a doorway, but it is catalytic as well. You cannot sit in the
VP and not change for the better. It will accentuate your true, authentic
self and bring you to full bloom if you allow it to work with you.
Reports of going through a worm hole, a 'star gate', flying through the
galaxy or through the Universe have also been experienced. Even more
profound, going 'home' to your home place where your soul was birthed (and
we all have such a place where we have come from and return to between
incarnations).
The VP is a mystical opening into the other dimensions, a gate, a door or
whatever you want to call it. When you sit or lie down in the VP (make sure
your entire body is within the eye or lens/fish, no part of it outside it),
something will happen. First, your aura will adjusted and harmonized. Once
you are in harmony, then your healing begins.
I would suggest a twenty minute meditation daily in the eye of the VP. Be
sure to keep a journal or diary of what you feel, hear, see or experience.
Over time, you will see that each journey is like a piece to a greater motif
that is you.
OTHER HEALING USES OF THE Vesica Piscis
Feeling stressed out? Go sit or lie down in the The Eye of the symbol. If
you are upset, angry or losing patience, go sit in the eye for about five to
ten minutes. Amazingly, all the anger or impatience or feeling out of sorts,
will simply dissolve away and you'll feel strong, steady and in your 'core'
being where there is a sense of solidness and peacefulness.
Worried? Anxious? Panic attack? Want to get rid of these awful feelings? Go
sit or lie down in the lens/eye for ten to twenty minutes and feels all this
unwanted energy dissipate and dissolve. You'll come out of there feeling
like a new person.
Sick? Have a headache? Experiencing arthritis? Go sit or lay down in the
lens/eye for ten to twenty minutes and see what happens. You'll be feeling a
lot better when you leave the VP.
You see, the VP is our very own, private doorway to the Universe in every
possible and conceivable way. You can turn negative into positive.
Separation or duality into Oneness. ain into no pain. Sharp, hurtful
emotions move into a feeling of peace and harmony.
WARRIORS FOR THE LIGHT: Are You One?
So many of you are Warriors for the LIght and you don't know it, at least on
a conscious level. But on a subconscious level, you definitely are one! You
see, there is such a thing as a 'peaceful warrior.' It does not mean you are
out killing people or beings, are violent, are extreme in any way. Nope,
just the opposite. Let's look to see if you qualify to be a Warrior for the
light:
1. If you desire peace over war.
2. Believe that we can all live in coexistence on this planet with everyone
and everything without violence/fighting/killing.
3. Are trying not to pollute this planet in myriad ways from large to small.
4. Believe everyone is allowed to believe what they want and respect them
for their right to do this.
5. Does not allow FEAR to run/rule you. Understands that FEAR holds us a
prisoner not only of ourselves, but others as a group. FEAR keeps the Dark
in control.
6. Knows on some intuitive level that LOVE and compassion is the only way
out and up from this mess we've created on Earth.
7. Works daily to do at least one good thing for others.
8. Has healthy boundaries (or is working to have them) in place so that you
are not giving away your life energy to others beyond that line in the sand.
9. Is not a 'victim' mentality and knows that you are responsible to do the
hard work yourself (instead of whining that you're not getting a hand out
from someone else).
10. That you do not blame others for the choices you are making daily,
rather, take responsibility for all of them.
11. Understand that change can only come through you and changing yourself,
you can change this world and its vibration to a higher frequency and move
it into the Light.
12. Meditation, yoga or some other form of ancient tools are practiced by
you on a regular basis because it puts you in touch with the Cosmic love and
energy that is always there for us.
13. Understand that harmony and balance must first occur within you. And
once you are there, you can turn around and help others find this same
exquisite peace. This is a world changing knowing.
14. Do not attach into powerful emotional dramas; your own or others because
it is emotional drama that keeps us trapped. You know to detach and work at
this daily, but you are still connected--from a compassionate level,
instead. And even if you aren't there yet, you are TRYING and that is all
that is asked.
15. You do not practice pity or sympathy. Rather, you are learning to
practice compassion--daily--in large and small ways.
16. Visualizes daily, a world at peace, with people happy to be working with
one another toward a common, shared goal of harmony. To see poverty,
starvation and classism dissolve. This is done through meditation, quiet
moments, prayer work or any way that you connect with this desire. To see an
Earth that is no longer polluted, that all our relations work in tandem with
us, not against us, is part of this visualization. That we do not see "Man"
as the top of the pecking order; rather, a part of of it.
17. Practices humility and understands that we are part of a much greater
fabric of Being, and that humans are not the center of any Universe. That we
are all part of a greater cog and wheel and we're a mere part of this
incredible, miraculous and ongoing process.
18. That our best teachers are inside ourselves, not outside of us. Outside
teachers are necessary, but we SIFT or SIEVE through what they tell us and
keep what feel right and releases the rest. Teachers outside of us, well
intended that they may be, are flawed and human. We are not attracted to
Gurus or one leader who knows all (they don't). Rather, we honor our own
knowing. The guides within you are perfect and will never lie to you. To
listen to your own inner voice/heart/intuition is your best resource and
guide to the Light.
19. Respect for all life, no matter if human, animal, reptile, organic or
inorganic; everything has a spirit within it and energy around it. Treating
all life as if it was your relative. Treating all life as equal to your own.
20. Respect for all people, regardless of religion, race, nationality, skin
color or gender. You understand that if we don't share this respect that we
do not respect ourselves, either. What is reflected outside of us is a
reflection of who we are inside ourselves. Embrace the community of the
Earth for we are part and parcel of it, never disconnected from it and that
what is reflected is us. And that if we don't like the reflection we can
change it--within ourselves first--and then it will affect change globally.
21. That all things are made up of energy. That energy can be changed but
never destroyed. Understanding that energy can be moved from Dark to Light
by simply being in your heart and desiring it to be so, can make it so.
22. Knowing that Dark is as necessary as Light and that we, as a planet,
have gone through 13,000 years of Dark but that our DAWN and first LIGHT are
going to arrive shortly by 2013. And you want to prepare for this incredible
Grace and energy distribution that is free to all who desire it.
23. Do not practice Classism; that one group, gender or person is better
than another. We all have a heart, a mind and share the same red blood in
our veins; which makes us equal.
24. Stands up and is counted when the Dark descends upon you. It may mean
standing quietly in your core for small or large challenges that may arrive
in your life/career/family. You know the difference in when to fight, when
to retreat and to choose your battles wisely.
25. Understands the use of anger but uses/transforms it into a pro-active
energy and action to catapult Light, instead of sinking into the rage which
puts us into the firm clutches of the Darkness. Anger is a useful tool, but
never taken out to harm others. Ever.
26. Does not envy anyone, is not jealous of anyone and is learning to
respect your own inner qualities, skills and who and what you are, instead.
27. Does not lie; will always tell the Truth.
28. Does not tell half lies or half truths or some part of truth you feel
you want another to know--but not the WHOLE truth. Truth will out and you
know that. You are willing to tell the truth even if it does not get you
what you want, even if it humiliates you or shows you to be terribly human.
Truth is one of the core qualities of a Warrior for the Light.
29. To recognize and absorb and radiate the beauty that is all around you;
large and small. To acknowledge the beauty in others, in yourself, and in
'all your relations' that live with you on our planet.
30. To have FAITH when the darkness falls upon you. When you go through the
'gauntlet' or the Dark Night of the Soul, as all of us must and do, to know
that God or whomever you believe in, is there to hold and support you
through this transformative action.
31. To surrender over to a higher power only. You do not surrender to anyone
else, for that is giving your power away. Understanding that by surrender,
you are placing yourself in the hands of a compassionate energy (be it God
or whomever you believe in) who loves you and will take care of you no
matter how rough Life gets for you.
32. To understand that "this took, shall pass," and that whatever harsh Life
lessons you are learning now and in the future, that the cycle will stop and
complete itself. That you must just persevere, surrender to a higher power
and have faith and do the best you can with your test. That is all that is
required of you.
33. That you are a unique being here on this planet and that who you are,
what you are, is needed and necessary for the Light to dissolve the Dark.
Belief in yourself, respect of yourself, is essential as never before. Each
person is like a beautiful wildflower--different and yet beautiful in your
uniqueness.
34. Honoring your skills, your experiences in life that have shaped and
formed you. That what you know is unique and only you have this knowing.
These are tools you have developed that can be utilized not only by
yourself, but shared with others on a positive level.
35. You treat your body as a temple and as a partner. Giving it nourishing
food, healthy food and caring for it as a mother does her baby, comes
instinctively. Addictive foods, smoking, and alcohol may be your challenge
but you actively work to halt these and make your body an abode that
resonates with harmony.
36. Realizing that we are all here on this fragile planet called Earth and
that if we do not take care of it--or ourselves--that we will having nothing
in the future. And the desire to create a planet as a haven and a new Garden
of Eden is a quiet driving force within your heart and spirit.
