As I look back I realize it has been building for some time. There were doubts, physical problems, the inexorable passage of time with its inevitable aging process. All of which added to an increasing feeling of helplessness at times.
But that was not the end. I was experiencing a strange pull, like an outgoing tide that takes all resistance, all doubt, and leaves only a flawed reality -- reduced physical abilities and monetary uncertainties that bloom in the autumn of life.
Saturday all I wanted to do was sleep. There was no feeling left. No desire, no ambition, no expectation. It was not depression. I was suddenly totally neutral. And sleep gathered me in deeply, with heavy dream times not remembered. Clear maybe for a brief instant on waking -- enough to know that primarily it was positive in some way.
Sunday was the same. Both days I was free. No need to set the alarm to be ready for necessary activities. My daughter was busy with her real-estate clients. These two days were totally mine, and I gave myself over to them completely. I did not even turn back the bed covers but slept on top with a light throw over me. And sleep was instantaneous each time I stretched out, no medication needed.
My routine was simple. I woke about 7:00 a.m. took the required glucose reading and prescribed medications, a Glucerna shake, and went right back to sleep. Water was by my bedside and sipped frequently, but deep sleep was never broken for any length of time, only to allay thirst or attend to a bathroom call. Food was not desired. Only water. As if monitored, the phone did not ring, not even a telemarket call. For these two days the silence and solitude were complete. Drifting through was one paramount thought --- The Tonti Connection. Although years ago I briefly experienced this consciously, it had become just a memory, just a concept. The term "Connection" had never been added before. Now over and over the words "The Tonti Connection" kept repeating in my mind, as if branded on my forehead. And the one thought that occupied this entire time was that it is up to The Tonti Connection now. I release all to it. I have exhausted myself in living with a belief, a longing for its return, for its reality.
This concept is based entirely on the desperate need of this planet for polarity balance to help Woman overturn the dominance, degradation, and belittlement she has endured for centuries. But to bring about this balance Woman needs help she has not yet received. In spite of some progress, there are not enough women in power positions to create effective changes. Also, unfortunately, some who are in power positions that could make a diffreence have forgotten to express the true nature of woman. So the humanitarian changes that could help woman express all that she is consistently meet obstinate opposition from a patriarchial heritage -- even from her own sex. Each step toward her freedom to be has a high price. Much of the world still sees Woman as the inferior sex, to be exploited, controlled, and repressed.
But I wasn't thinking all of this over this weekend. These are thoughts I've had before. In fact, I wasn't thinking at all. A strange outgoing tide had stripped my emotional shoreline clean. In complete neutrality I was an observer. I saw how completely this connection had always unconsciously existed in my life. And there was always a longing I could not define or fill. I became more aware of times in my life when some unexplained power took over and arranged things for my benefit and protection in the past.
After my divorce in my early thirties I watched as a conscious telepathic connection gradually became a way of life, with wonderful results. Other people did not challenge me. Respect was automaticaly given, even if sometimes grudgingly.
Then I lost it. I know now that I was meant to experience both woman's ancient past connection and the great loss that occurred. I had a vision. A butcher's axe severed a tube of light connecting one soul to another in the solar plexus area, with beautiful, clear light constantly moving between them.
This forceful separation was reenacted within me when telelpathic communications was abruptly canceled. And without this wonderful help, lacking clear discernment of other people's motives and manipulative ways, I was a woman alone --- vulnerable and exposed. Efforts to protect myself only produced an emotional, defensive attitude that accomplished nothing and fostered more resistance.
Time inexorably moved on, and with it youthfulness and its accompanying good looks, both definite assets in a male-controlled society for man is a visual responder. And without an impressive amount of the world's other acceptable power base I was theoretically confined to a social ice floe to float to a lonely and unheralded death.
Then suddenly it became crystal clear. This information had to wait until woman was utterly weary of her ignorance and man's in the way they relate to each other. That now is the time to "speak" The Tonti Connection! The time for Woman to take back her power in a quiet, mystical way. To silently and wisely reconnect inwardly with her spiritual mate, the other half of her total being.
Then ---outwardly calm and completely fearless --- her very Presence will command instinctive respect, especially from men without them even knowing why they automatically respond this way. Is this what man unconsciously desires from woman and is waiting for?
I've seen it happen. It happened to me. I had this connection! I know it works! I also know what it is like to be without it. So now I reclaim it, not only for myself but for every woman, regardless of her present situation.
The rest of the week I moved through its requirements automatically. A strange neutrality stayed. The emotional ups and down I'd experienced before were gone. I released everything to The Tonti Connection. After so many years I finally understood. This powerful concept could not be revealed until women, myself included, reached the point where we are ready to once more honor ouselves; to express the creation we are and re-establish this ancient connection once more on earth.
The ancient Mayan culture gave us more than the Mayan cosmic cycles. They were an early test case for the process of physical ascension that the entire planet is about to experience in the near future.
Their cycles work made us aware that December 21st, 2012 is when several long-term cosmic cycles of influence upon human consciousness come to a close, all on the same date, and new cycles begin. There is a 5,125 year cycle, a longer 26,000-year cycle, and some even longer-term cycles as well, all converging on that one date.
The Mayan civilization existed up until 830 A.D, yet their astronomical knowledge exceeded today's level of knowledge in many ways. They not only knew the precise orbits of the planets in our solar system, but also the orbits of the stars in our galaxy. They even had cataloged information on major cosmic events going back more than 400 million years. The Mayan calendars are masterpieces which illustrate the repeating time-spirals of cosmic cycles within cycles within cycles.
Then, the Mayans suddenly disappeared from their cities, leaving no traces behind as to where they had moved and, yet, left their cooking pots and utensils behind. There is no sign that they suddenly died from some mysterious ailment and they did not move to another known location. That means they didn't relocate anywhere here on this physical earth. Instead, they moved up a level from our third-density level of existence into fourth density. They didn't move away; they moved up.
Fourth density is less dense than our world, but it is still physical. It is also home to the spirit realms or the afterlife. If you were a physical human living in fourth density, you would find it relatively easy to contact people in spirit bodies. They would live in a higher sub-realm of fourth density than you, but you'd both be in the overall fourth-density layer of existence on this planet.
The Mayans engaged in a prototype experiment to ascend from third density to fourth density. They weren't the only test group engaging in such experiments. In New Mexico, for example, the residents of Bandelier and Puye Cliff Dwellings successfully ascended, as did the residents of Machu Picchu in Peru. Those test groups moved from third density up into fourth density.
The ascension that is about to happen on Earth in the near future will be very similar and, yet, it will be different in one major respect. We won't be leaving our old world behind to move into a new one. Our world will ascend along with everything in it, including us.
Our entire realm of existence will increase in frequency and move up into a fourth-density frequency band. This time, the cooking pots and utensils won't get left behind; they'll come with us, as will everything else in our reality.
When this occurs, people who are alive in physical bodies will experience physical ascension, right after those in the afterlife experience their ascension to a higher sub-realm of fourth density. In fact, they'll vacate the sub-realm that we'll be moving into.
The nature of this global ascension was foreseen as long as two millennia ago by Jesus, who even foresaw the sequence of events. He said that, in the twinkling of an eye, the dead shall be raised and we shall be changed. But first, he said, the 'dead' shall rise and then we will be caught up together with them in the 'clouds' (i.e. higher realms.)
So, the 'dead' - the spirits residing in the afterlife - will first rise to a higher sub-realm of their fourth-density existence and then we will be moved up into fourth density.
This upcoming transformation of our world into fourth density is referred to as the Ascension, the Rapture, the Resurrection, or simply as The Shift. Today, we think of The Shift as the phenomenon where everything is changing very quickly. In the future, however, The Shift will be looked back upon as the day the world suddenly changed or 'rose in the heavens.'
The Shift will occur when the time is right for humanity to handle the experience. This means, when a critical mass is reached in the emerging New Reality consciousness. Fourth density is a heart-centered frequency band of consciousness.
When enough people operate in that level of consciousness, then humanity will be ready to make the mass shift into fourth density.
Percentage-wise, the number of people required to reach the tipping point is small because higher consciousness has proportionately more influence on the global mind atmosphere than the lower frequencies.
After 2012, promoting widespread New Reality consciousness will be a lot easier then before, as the old cycles will have finished and the positive influences of new cycles will be in effect. That means that your efforts to change the world through positive thought and action will be working in a positive environment instead of the old, decaying, end-of-cycle environment.
Every step that you take to foster heart-centered consciousness within yourself and others affects the global mind atmosphere profoundly as we work towards that tipping point.
When the global ascension of The Shift happens and the New Reality blooms, it will become the most wonderful transformation in recorded history.
It will be remembered as the time when humanity literally built heaven on earth!

KlaLa's dark eyes, lustrous in the soft light. mesmerized me by the inner force of her being. Her voice, soft but firm, repeated her statement.
"Woman must regain her own inner power if the world of mankind is to survive. There is no alternative. The imbalance between the poles of created life, human life, can no longer exist. The race of man on earth will not continue as long as one polarity dominates, degrades, and abuses another. It is against divine law; it is repugnant to any truly civilized race."
I stared at her, fascinated by the grace of her movements, the quiet authority emanating from her. Without effort, she commanded attention and instinctive respect.
At the same time I was painfully aware of the contrast between us. My shapeless muumuu covered a body that reflected the stress of time devoted to the welfare of others. I felt shame; the shame of my spirit that had resigned itself to being shunted off on a siding of life. Like the ancient passive acceptance of an old Eskimo woman who took her place on an ice floe to drift outward to a lonely, ignoble death.
She interrupted my thoughts, having read the images in my mind clearly. "In much of your world there is little difference in the attitude toward women today, for all the much touted liberation. Men also experience the rejecton of society unless they have acquired the coin of the realm and the power it can supply in your world.
"But for those who honor the message of the heart before the lure of acquisition, there is not even grudging respect. You are consigned to society's own brand of ice floe to drift silently, ignored and forgotten, toward a nameless death.
"Yet there are few in your world who could walk the road you and many of your sisters have walked. Without support, either financial or emotional, you still held to the integrity of the heart's wisdom."
Her lovely dark lashes lay against pale golden perfect skin as she glanced at something on the crystal table before her. Again those brilliant, commanding eyes met mine.
"And this is why this story must be told. Its time has come. It will be told first as fiction, for as one of your eminent journalists of the past once said: 'Truth can only be told as fiction.' It can only be introduced behind the protective mask that fiction provides.
"For those who are ready -- it becomes fact. They identify with and rcognize the truth behind the mask. They receive the message clearly. For those who are not ready, it presents only a harmless story, a moment's entertainment. And if it challenges their proud intellects and prejudices, it is easily dismissed as pure fantasy.
"Still, my Sister, the message will have gone forth into the ethers of the collective mind. The seed will have been sown. And one day it will blossom, even in the consciousness of those who at first ridicule its message."
I asked: "But who will tell such a story? One that you say will challenge the opinions and beliefs of mankind. It would have to be someone who has already received public acceptance, whose work is already known, wouldn't it?"
"No, my Sister. The tale will be spun from an ordinary life that is not so ordinary after all. You, my Sister, will tell our story. The story of Woman -- of her great and noble place and purpose in the Creator's plan."
I stared at her, momentarily struck dumb by the import of her words. "But," I stammered, "my life has been so ordinary, at least outwardly. Even my writing has always been more for my own pleasure and growth. So who would pay attention to any story I wrote, especially one such as you describe?"
He smile was warm and very gentle; it softened the strength of her face. Feminine, very feminine, but one sensed the controlled power that lay behind the beauty of face and form.
"That, my Sister, is where the Tonti comes in."
She saw my startled expression. "Yes, you know this word well, but do you know its actual meaning?"
I shook my head. "No, not actually."
"He is all things to Woman -- Counselor, Friend, Protector, Provider -- the Husband of her Spirit. Our Beloved. He is, in short, the fifth and final face of her god." She settled back in her comfortable chair.
"Man, you know, created his own god. First as Father, created in man's image, not the other way around. So the Father of your world's religions became a commanding, authoritative figure, subject to fits of wrath and capable of punishing his disobedient children. A vengeful, judgmental god who declared 'an eye for an eye!.'"
I nodded, remembering the God of Moses with his innumerable laws and his unmerciful judgments.
KlaLa smiled in agreememt. "But man does not remain a helpless child. Evolution exists in the unfoldment of consciousness, even as physical evolution ocurred in your world to refine a vehicle to house the Essence."
She rose and walked gracefully to a huge window, curved to conform to the ship. Outside, the blackness of space emphasized the lustrous whitenss of her gown, girdled with gold around her waist. The material, softer than silk, seemed to move with her, outlining the slender lines of her body.
I was silent, overwhelmed by my surroundings. The uncluttered atmosphere of the room did not give the feeling of sparseness. Instead, the effect was one of elegance reduced to perfect functional comfort.
She turned, smiling at my wide-eyed observation. "We follow one of your poet soul's advice: 'Simplify, simplify, simplify.' Yet, as you have already observed, we do not sacrifice comfort in any way."
She seated herself again across from me at the crystal table. Her slender, expressive hands rested on top of a crystal tablet in front of her.
"And now I would address you in a word from our language. . .Sulari. It means Sister of Light, and is not used lightly. It is a key to your awakening, to your memory, and it is right at this time that you should be so addressed."
I repeated the word as she had pronounced it. "Soo-la-ree." The sound was sibilant and pleasing. It struck a spark within.
KlaLa was watching my reaction intently, and seemed pleased at what she sensed; that the word had indeed touched a part of me, but she gave no further explanation.
She continiued: "The second face man created for his god added the softness, to a limited degree, of woman. Ancient religions addressed the truth in that there were gods and goddesses. Later, religions made woman a secondary figure, extolling primarily her biological function. But women instinctively sensed her true importance, and their prayers were often addressed to her rather than the patriarchial figure identified in most of earth's religions."
I murmured, "Mary. The mother of Jesus."
Again she nodded. "And through her, another, a third face of man's god, a Savior, came to man's mind. Someone to absolve man of his own ignorance and error. But the image and message of this Great One sent to your world was warped and twisted, again to man's expediency. Ceremony and myth were woven together to produce a concept of forgiveness by the mere act of acknowledging His presence on your world.
"Gone was the lesson He came to teach, to demonstrate. That the duality of mankind, expressed in his own life as Son of Man and Son of God, need not be a permanent state. That Oneness with the Creator of All could be achieved if man would surrender his ego, which carries the genetic aggressiveness and territorial instincts of the body, to the greater image placed within by the Creator.
"Instead, this One was deified into a glorified excuse for man to continue his own ignorance and his warlike tendencies, even in the name of the One, because all would be forgiven would it not? No great effort was demanded to emulate this One because he was accorded the distinction of being unique. Therefore, it was considered impossible to achieve his exalted state of consciousness. And thus mankind was robbed of the Call to unfold its own innate Christhood. Yet by the words attributed to this One in your religious writings, he denied his uniqueness. 'Ye are gods. That which I do, ye may do also, and greater.'" Her dark eyes met mine squarely. "Is this not so?"
I bowed my head, feeling the weight of the world's ignorance touch me. "Yes, perhaps we are still children who need someone to rescue us from our own ignorance. And another to blame as the cause in the first place."
KlaLa smiled tenderly. There was no judgment in those beautiful eyes. "Yes, mankind has covered its own actions, its own thoughts, very conveniently. It is true of all of earth's religions. Man has refused responsiblity for his own creative power by delegating responsibiity for both good and evil outside himself.
"It was only late in your last century that another face of your god could be introduced. The judgmentalism of the Father, the gentle but passive influence of the Mother, and the immaturity and fear that require a Savior have all prepared the way of a wider view for some -- to that of Elder Brother, One who walks beside man, who provides the loving guidance and protection that an older, wiser, and caring brother would provide for a much younger sibling."
I looked at her expectantly. "I can see our progression up to four. Do we move beyond Elder Brother in our understanding?
"Yes, for woman, to the Tonti. It is a word revered in our language. It has great meaning, but it is difficult to translate to your language. I will try." She hesitated. "It implies highest trust, deepest love, and a personal relationship that exceeds any so far assigned to any other face of your god. He is primarily Woman's avatar.
She was silent for a moment, then added: "Man has a similar companion, but we will deal with that later."
I was curious, eager to understand. To know more of the true meaning of this long familiar word. "Is this what we call a guardian angel?"
She smiled, clearly enjoying my curiosity. "In some respects, yes. But it is more, much more, as you my Sulari have already discovered."

The Nature of the Soul
by Owen Waters
Your soul is your immortal inner being. It existed before time began and it will always exist, even when you merge back in your ultimate spiritual home as a conscious aspect of Infinite Being.
Out of the 12 levels or density layers of existence, we, in this physical realm, are in 3rd density. The soul is in 5th density, and Infinite Being is beyond the 12th. Your soul is your individualized spiritual presence, operating in 5th density and it maintains communication with the souls of everyone with whom you interact in daily life.
The soul world of 5th density is non-physical, our dense physical world is in 3rd density, while 4th density – the afterlife or spirit world – is quasi-physical. The term quasi-physical means that the spirit world is solid to its residents, even though they are etheric or ghost-like when compared to our dense physical structures. Spirits can, and do, bump into each other in the spirit realms because they are solid relative to each other.
Life in the spirit world is much like life in our dense physical world, except that there are certain freedoms that come with having a less dense body. The ability to levitate is one such freedom and, better still, spirits can project themselves almost instantly to another location and suddenly appear there. It just takes mental focus and – whoosh – they appear at the target location.
You don’t see people wearing spectacles in the spirit world because their sense of sight works as a direct perception rather than through their eyes in the way that we use our eyes. They can focus telescopically on distant objects to make them appear near, and they can focus microscopically on a nearby object, right down to its atomic structure. Their sense of hearing, too, can be focused to pick up sounds at great distances.
When we in the physical world are able to replicate the principles behind ‘astral projection’, we, too, will have instant transportation to other locations. Then, it’ll be bye-bye to cars, trucks, trains, planes and rocket ships.
5th density is the start of non-physical existence, so your soul is a non-physical sphere of consciousness. It has the freedom to relocate both in time and space but it spends most of its time catering to the needs of its physical, incarnate self.
In 5th density, when one soul meets another they recognize each other, not from any physical appearance, but from their unique signature vibration. Each soul emits a unique signature tone which is a form of mental energy that is perceived as a subtle sound.
Your soul is the recorder and cataloger of all of your experiences as you add your contribution to the vast array of human experience on earth. A major portion of your soul consciousness lives right here in 3rd density with you, tending to your every spiritual need. As your inner self, your soul knows you better than anyone else in the world does, and it\'s available for consultation 24/7. The limiting factor is how much your physical mind will allow and accept intuitive, soul-originated thoughts.
In order to live a life inspired by intuitive, inner wisdom you need only make a decision to do just that. Open up your awareness to the whisperings of your intuitive nature. Practice following your innermost hunches. Make a note of them so that you can look back later and see how accurate they have become.
Most of all, don’t be deterred if your hunches seem inaccurate during your early attempts. It happens that way to most people. Just keep practicing and very soon your hunches will start turning into a resource so valuable that you’ll wonder what you did without it.

Remember the vastness of your Spirit. Become transmuted and awaken in God.
The Joy of a Soul Connection
by Owen Waters
When we tune into the soul level of consciousness, we find that there is much more to achieving personal happiness than to anything related to external events. Real joy comes from within, from an unending source which is divine in origin.
The creative will of the Divine Father aspect of God merged in perfect union with the everlasting love of the Divine Mother aspect of God together fill the universe with total, unadulterated, blissful joy!
The greatest discovery of a person who regularly practices meditation is that, one day, the door will open to this unending supply of blissful joy. On that day, the spiritual seeker knows, beyond all shadow of any doubt, that God lies silently within all things and all consciousness. We are a part of that Divine Oneness, and it is through the joy of soul consciousness that we realize this connection.
Remember that your soul consciousness is your complete, inner consciousness. Your daily, conscious awareness, on the other hand, is focused on the outside world for a purpose. The true purpose is so that we can find our way back to that from which we came, even though we are spiritually “blindfolded,” so to speak. The game of life on Earth is played so that we can experience the rediscovery of that joyous connection to the oneness from which we originally came.
All the happiness in the world pales in comparison with the supreme joy of that inner connection. Soul-inspired joy is lasting happiness. It has no beginning and no end because it is always there, just as God is always there, within each and every one of us.

Healing Polarity:
Weaving a new Tapestry of Emotional Resonance
Have you ever turned a tapestry over? On one side is a carefully woven picture. On the other, the side which is not meant to show, the threads jangle and jar and tangle into chaos.
We weave a tapestry in every moment. Each emotional resonance that arises within us carries a particular frequency, a particular color of thread. When we express emotion, these threads of energy move from us and create something in our world. Whenever we react to an emotion within us, we are not choosing the color of the thread, we create unconsciously. The threads we emanate tangle up with each other in chaos, like the underside of the tapestry. This unconscious energy of creation is the framework which holds the veil of separation in place. To believe that our emotions are a reality which is imposed upon us, a state of being over which we have no control, is what creates polarization in our experience.
Restoring our human emotions to their proper position within our frame of reference is the single greatest thing we can do to heal the polarity of our human experience. Mastering emotional resonance is the key to harnessing the limitless power of Love, the only truly renewable energy source.
This is not about clearing away emotions we do not want. It is about responding consciously to emotional frequencies and putting them in their proper perspective on behalf of the greater whole.
We are conditioned from birth to believe that we are our emotions. Even our language reinforces this as we say "I am angry" or "I am afraid" rather than saying "I feel anger" or "I feel fear". This mistaken belief is what keeps us in a cycle of reacting to every emotion which arises. We are not our emotions. We are the space in which they arise.
Only when we are in a place of Peace within ourselves, a place of emotional neutrality, may we create consciously. It is this stance of inner Peace and calm from which we are able to view the picture on the top side of the tapestry as well as the side we normally see. Not only that, but from this place, we have a myriad of perspectives available. We can look up close at the details, or stand back and take in the bigger picture with ease. This clarity of vision and diversity of possible perspectives offer us many different options from which to respond with ease and confidence to any given situation.
Trying to change situations by reacting emotionally is like trying to adjust the picture in a tapestry by sewing from the bottom. We can't even see what colors we are working with until we've taken a stitch. It just creates more chaos.
From the position of peaceful emotional neutrality, we are no longer bound by a dualistic polarized experience, but become the vastness in which all possibilities exist. From this position, we recognize that struggle only perpetuates struggle, and freedom is found in trusting the Divine Love in which we are held in all moments. ONLY from this perspective are we able to create consciously using our emotional resonance.
Fear begins in the mind, and it paralyzes the heart. When we feel fear and fail to return to our heart center, we give our power away, and become unable to hear the voice which speaks in silence. We perpetuate the resonance of chaos simply by resonating with it.
It is possible to stop this unconscious chain reaction by stopping- as soon as we become aware of our feelings- and returning consciously to that place of stillness within. This is possible even in the face of great terror, if we TRUST that what is within us is greater than that which is without. As soon as we step back into this place of Trust, our perspective shifts: The tapestry flips and we are able to transform any situation through aligning ourselves afresh with the inner Divine and create with colors of our choosing. This heals the polarity created by our emotional dissonance and resistance, and restores a flow of balanced unity.
One person choosing this course may influence an entire community. Many choosing this course together in untied intent influence the entire world.
Let us consciously join in this New Moon Transmission to move more deeply into personal responsibility for healing the polarization of our own emotional creations- and also hold and radiate this intent on behalf of those who cannot yet see the bigger picture.
Let us move forward together holding and radiating the vision of a human race which is no longer enslaved by emotion, but instead delights in the diversity of creative potential which emotional energy offers us. Picture our emotions no longer taking control, but instead being held like colors on a palette from which we create consciously.
These colors of emotional resonance weave the tapestry of life. Consciously yielded to the inner Divine, they will no longer tangle and clash, but weave in deepest harmony a new picture.
Divine Mother's creation is so great, so awesome, so transcendent, it is unfathomable. At the same time, perhaps it is so simple that there is nothing to explain. She just wills and it happens. That is creation, spontaneous. If you reach the consciousness where She resides, you will see that it is all very simple. It is not only play for Her - She Herself is the playmate.
There is no break in creation. Wherever and however your thoughts, feelings, emotions, ideas, intuition or gaze can reach, and beyond - to infinity - She is pervading. There is nothing, nowhere, no distance or time that She is not. She is ALL.
We are trying to understand Her with the mind, which is limited by its inherent dualistic nature, and therefore we perceive paradox. Intrinsically there is no paradox. Truth is simple, but it can only be realized by transcending the mind. You have to empty your mind in order to purify or clean it. You cannot do that by thinking. The more you think, the more the clutter increases.
Still and quiet the mind - then the Voice, the Vision, the Touch is possible. That is childlikeness. Let it happen rather than by your doing. This is the way your consciousness opens up. Be still and thou shalt know. After sufficient relaxation, wisdom or knowledge is born.
With simplicity, go as a child to Divine Mother. Don't ask Her to make you understand how She creates. You want to see Her, to touch Her, to feel Her. You want to be one with her. She will take care of everything else.
In each soul's experience, there are times of perfect calm. Such a time means that all is in order both within and without. Nothing pulls you towards something else nor pushes you away from a thing, but you remain in equanimity or harmony with the way things are at that moment.
The moment of perfect calm is both amazing and invisible. In its amazement, you may realize that all is perfect and that life is sweet for you just as it is, taking in everything and being content. But in its invisibility, there are countless such moments in every day, and they fleet by with nary a glance or recognition. That is because these are the moments between your thought-production. It is only when you return to thoughts that you become discontented once again, and lose the calm perfection.
Life, then, becomes a series of seeming struggles in which the perceived outer world does not offer what you crave or yearn for, and the perceived inner world is in disalignment with what you aspire to as your goal. Then you are in disharmony - a frequent state that is seen as the condition or average situation of everyone. Therefore, it behooves you to wake up to the fact that perfect calm is available 24/7, that it is in fact the default state, that one need only put aside thoughts for as long as possible, again and again throughout the day, to return over and over, and for longer and longer stretches, to this default position in which everything is in alignment and sweet.
That is all that needs be done, and rather quickly your soul becomes happier and more peaceful. Is this then a trick? No. But it is a universal secret. The time is ripe for this understanding to be discovered, for as outer circumstances seem to be building in consequence and pressurization, now is exactly the time to dwell within, in the place of respite and beauty... the place of you.
Cooperation and Encouragement
by Owen Waters
The biggest lie that your parents and teachers ever told you was one that they, too, had been raised to believe. It’s a lie that seemed to make sense to them and, at the time, it probably did to you as well.
We are emerging from the Old Reality, where abuse of power was rampant. If a person or an organization gained a power advantage over others, they would often use that to make gains for themselves at the expense of others. Now that we are entering the New Reality – one which is based upon heart-centered consciousness – people who abuse power will eventually be seen, not as winners in a competition, but as undesirables or even sociopaths.
The lie which now comes to light is this: That it’s ‘bad’ to have personal power.
However, we are here on earth in order to find our way back to that from which we originally came. In order to make the journey back to God consciousness, we have to keep adding to the power of our minds and our spirits until we reach our final destination. Personal and spiritual growth will continually add to our personal power.
There is nothing bigger or more powerful than Infinite Being, acting as the One Creator of the universe. One day, you will become one with that in your realization and your mind and spirit will, by definition, be bigger than the universe. Between now and that final stage in the evolution of your consciousness, you will experience continual, balanced growth in mind and spirit.
The truth that each of us now needs to face is this: You are here on earth for the purpose of spiritual growth so you will grow in mental and spiritual ability. That means more personal power and, with it, a greater ability to help others.
Your mind will grow in understanding, in intuitive wisdom, and in its ability to serve all forms of life in greater and more meaningful ways. Your spirit will grow as you help others to grow in their situations and their abilities.
The purpose of becoming a big-minded, big-spirited person is to be of big service to others.
Then, in the manner of the New Reality’s heart-centered consciousness, you improve the world for the benefit of everyone. Life is no longer about competition. There are no winners and losers any more, just people who grow by continually doing better than they did before and by encouraging others to do likewise.
Trying to pull a person down for doing a better job is no longer productive. In fact, in the New Reality, it is counter-productive. Everyone should encourage everyone to do everything as well as they possibly can. Genius should be accepted and encouraged, as it benefits everyone. When Mozart was just 5 years old and already composing, would it have been better to see him as a pretentious brat or as a genius to be encouraged? The answer is obvious and, to this day, the world enjoys the fruits of his creative efforts.
The Shift to heart-centered consciousness on planet Earth is not an option. It is happening regardless of anything anyone says or does. It’s a cosmic event that is bigger than the planet and bigger than our solar system. The Shift is happening and the New Reality will continue to emerge until it becomes simply, the Reality.
Heart-centered consciousness creates a movement away from the old attitude of competition. Tomorrow’s world will be built on the New Reality ethic of cooperation and mutual encouragement.
When the world becomes filled with mutual respect and support, you’ll be able to wake up every day knowing that each new day will be better than the one before.

Creating New Agreements
As awakening human beings at the leading edge of culture, we need to do a lot of thinking about what it means to live a purposeful and meaningful life, and what it would look like to deeply succeed in evolving, individually and together. There is not a shared agreement about these matters, even among those individuals who are committed to the evolution of consciousness and culture. So these questions are ones we need to contemplate and explore very carefully, very objectively, and with keen discernment, so that we can come to some agreements about what we are working toward. Culture is always based on shared agreements, and unless we create new ones, our efforts to evolve will inevitably remain rooted in shared values and perspectives that are probably historically outdated. When we become evolutionarily enlightened and begin to experience new and higher values that are not shared by many, it is critical that we make the effort to objectify them, to articulate them, and to agree upon them with others. This is the only way we will actually see where we are going.
....so let the moss grow on your rocking chair...you've got stuff to discover, explore and experience.
Spring is in full swing, and the Earth reminds us that life involves cycles of creating and transmuting energy into matter and then from matter back to energy again.
What old cycles are being completed in your life? What new projects are you starting?
The more we explore this amazing Universe through our other senses, our spiritual senses, the more vast it seems and the more endless our possibilities. The ability to see how much space there is in our world for our creations is something that we truly understand by experiencing the world through our spiritual abilities and perceptions.
How can we use our clairvoyance to help us create and manifest?
People think that clairvoyance is all about seeing energy.
They don't think about the aspect of clairvoyance that is so involved in spirit to spirit communication.
As spirit we communicate through energy, with energy, and with what we call energy pictures. When we are reading someones energy field we are picking up images (made of energy) and then translating them into words.
During an aura reading there is a dialogue happening between two spirits and energy pictures are flying back and fourth at an incredible speed. This energy communication happens whether we are aware of it or not. When you use your clairvoyant ability consciously, you can begin to be more aware of what communication pictures you are creating, and thus more in command of your communication space.
When you decide to create something, the first act of creation is not necessarily a thought or word, but an energy picture. When you want to manifest something, you start with a picture, and this is the energy picture you show to the Universe to communicate what you want. As a clairvoyant, you can look at this first creation and deliberately choose to make this image a clearer and clearer message --or communication-- to the Universe. This energy picture becomes the foundation of what you are creating, and you learn to take ownership of it and separate out all other energies in that creation, that energy image, that are not yours.
The next step is to realize that the Universe will now support your request by assisting you in discovering all the limits within that will impede you from having your creation. As a clairvoyant on a conscious path, you know than when you meet an obstacle on your path to manifesting something great, you can turn within, to focus that powerful ability of neutral observation inwards and discover the limits, fears and non-havingness within, in order to clear them out and be free of them.
Once you have healed yourself of any limits, you are then ready to bring fourth your creation without unconsciously resisting it. When your creations are in alignment with your Higher Self, creating becomes joyful as it is also an endless opportunity to become more and more free of limits and fears.
It is your spiritual birthright to be a creator, and to enjoy it.
So, nevermind spending another moment in that rocking chair or lazy boy lounger--life is for creating and experiencing yourself as a creative spirit. There are endless possibilities and infinite space for you to be yourself. When you become increasingly proficient in your clairvoyant ability, you become more in command of both your communication and creative capabilities.
Happy Spring. Here is hoping that you decide to spring fourth and let loose a few magnificent creations.
