@tesseract Thank you for the kind words and encouragement. Your posts are always comforting and reassuring and I look forward to reading them! ❤️
One thought that has helped me through this new election reality is that we came here at this time to work through this darkness.
We are capable of rising to new heights of internal strength. We have so many magnificent role models in human history to guide us! It is no accident that our country is honoring the work of Jimmy Carter at this very moment.
Everyone who comes to this community has great compassion, empathy, intelligence, kindness, and just so much light. Because we are human, we also have within us the darkness-- the anger, fear, and the need for revenge. We are each unique but we are also microcosms of the whole race. We must convert that darkness within ourselves.
And we must rise.
When we rise, we bring the rest of the human race with us.
Back in the mid 1990's I had a vision of the future that the seas were rising. I thought it took place off the shores of New York, but it could have been anywhere, because I began to see that the rising seas were not just about sea levels, but about stress. I saw untold numbers of people flailing in the water, which meant they were unable to handle the stress.
That is when you, this community, arrived.
I saw concerned people rushing to the shore and pulling out the ones who were flailing; flinging them onto solid ground. Spirit whispered to me that these rescuers were "the helpers".
In Circle of Light, as soon as we settle into our meditation, clearing our heads of the constant noise, I always see angels appearing high above us, like airplanes arriving, but high in the air above. Then as our meditation proceeds, they get closer. Last Friday, I saw a large wing so large it was life-size, right before me. They are coming closer now.
I feel them instructing me to tell the participants to prepare for an angel healing. They want us to become instruments of their love, but first they have to help us rise to their level, if only for the duration of our meditation.
So we hold hands in our minds, and open ourselves to receive their light. Their light pours into us, top down, and we fill up with angel light. Then we begin sending loving kindness to all of earth's beings. I feel the angels trying to help us rise to a higher level.
Everything that is happening right now, all that stress we are under, is human caused. Thus humans can turn it around. We can pray for rain for LA, but truly, it is our actions over the past few decades that have caused the weather we are getting. And it will be our actions that will reverse it. It will take a profound shift in the human race to bring our world back to the garden we were given. We will do it. And this community, and similar communities, are helping.
I have seen visions of a new more evolved human race over time. Caring about the earth rather than plundering it and dumping our waste upon it. The City of Angels has been one of the most beautiful places on earth because of its light. That light will still be there when they rebuild. And I pray that a greater reverence for that sacred place will ensue.
We in this community, along with many other similar communities, have come here to raise the light within our species. It is a great honor. And it begins with witnessing the darkness that has befallen us, and bringing back the light. It is this perspective on our situation that can help us cope with what has happened.
I have withdrawn into myself and my local situation. I have ignored anything and everything coming out of the right-wing mouthpiece that is the MSM and the administration because I don't have the mental/emotional/psychic/spiritual energy to deal with the firehose of 💩 coming from them. I openly admit to having enjoyed a great deal of schadenfreude at the "misfortune" of the ones on whose faces the leopards are currently feasting. That's how I've coped so far, and I don't see that changing anytime soon. Those who can resist, know that I support you, but I simply don't have anything left with which to fight those battles.
For the foreseeable future, I will not be as active here due to the above as well as several personal issues. I am still unemployed with no prospects, my mother has come down with some kind of respiratory thing and may have also had a recurrence of viral meningitis, and there have been some pressing financial setbacks of late.
I wish us all godspeed, patience, and whatever peace we can find for the next little while.
@tgraf66 Good luck to you and your mom. I hope we meet again (virtually) in better times, if not before.
How I've felt the last 2 weeks.
The “Empathic Me”.
So much to process, filter and wade through. The empathic me, she’s still learning how to navigate these times. How do I help? How do I steer the rudder of this lifeboat I am in through this stormy world. How can I find balance with all the swirling emotions. SO much suffering and loss felt in the collective.
The “American Woman” Me.
I’m gutted and dismayed. Realization washing over me that I am living during this critical time in our nation's history. So many thoughts, feelings and emotions. I grieve for my homeland which once was, and I hold hope in my heart for the homeland in which I yearn.
I am pondering, deeply reflecting upon, what living in this time means for the American woman that I am. Does anyone living during a critical time in history actually know what their role entails, especially in the early chapters of the story being written? I am pondering the path to take and am hopeful, wishing to make positive impacts during this upending time.
The “Human Me”.
So many questions. Who am I? What is my purpose in life right now?
“Human me” asks this question quite a bit. I believe each of us receives God-given gifts and talents when we come into the world. I feel an inner drive and push from the loving angelic realm to use and not waste them. I don’t know how exactly, but I feel an obligation to use them for as much good as possible.
I fully am aware that I am a flawed human yet I’m also aware that beauty can be created from imperfection. Shattered glass can become a stained-glass mosaic piece of inspirational art. Scientific failures can become life changing incredible new discoveries. From the ashes of despair, a firebird arises. I truly believe we are all imperfect and flawed humans who are being called to create in our own way, something positive and beautiful in this time. For some it will be with baby steps, for others it will be a marathon run. All light-filled and loving creations are important.
“Human Me” wants to live her highest possible purpose. This purpose is an unfolding mystery. One’s “life book” doesn’t begin with a birth in chapter one, it rather begins with the prequal, what came before the birth, the lives lived by the ancestors. My ancestors’ experiences, challenges, choices, fortunes and losses all helped set the stage for my arrival (along with my God given spiritual gifts) in chapter one of my life book. I don’t know what chapter my life is now living, but it appears to be one of great discovery and purpose.
I will not bow to darkness. I cannot remain silent. I will call it out for the evil that it is.
I will keep reaching higher, to love with all my heart and all my soul. To shine light during raging seas. To bend in the wind. To find fertile soil to plant my roots and sow a garden of love. To be present for my family, friends and others who need to be heard and understood.
I have no idea HOW this will all manifest, but this WILL fill the yet unwritten chapters of my life.
*Note to self. Don’t forget to include plenty of rest, exercise, healthy eating, laughter, family bonding, happy experiences with friends and family, dog loving and creative arts in those future chapters ahead. haha. In the current one too.
Am using the tools shared on this forum to resist and have been pondering how to manage negative emotions as they arise during this humanity reboot. Bad can bring about good. So perhaps gratitude and thanks for the bad would be an effective compliment to love and light in transmuting and releasing anger. Have started putting some version of this out there daily and using specific names to strengthen it energetically.
Such as, “Gratitude and thanks to all the hidden and public figures who have illuminated and motivated change individually and collectively. You each have activated the good in humanity. Your work here is complete.”
@theungamer
I really appreciate what you wrote. Transmuting the anger and fear is important and I like how you are approaching it. That is helpful advice.
I am sensing after reading some Bluesky posts that our federal workers feel people don't care in the U.S. about what is happening compared to people protesting in Europe like Germany against what is happening here. That saddens me.
I decided to join the official democratic group in my legislative district today. I hope to learn more about what I can do to help in my area.
Apologies for the delay in responding to your lovely post. It means a great deal to me that what I post, be it from me or from Spirit, is comforting. That is a marvelous compliment. Thank you. ❤️
@theungamer
Wow. What a great affirmation. I am incorporating it into my daily meditation as of Now. Thank you.
