When reading our world, where's the balance between hope and truth about what we see?

Jeanne Mayell · 2019-01-10T23:40:41Z

I used to just write down whatever visions I got when I did a timeline meditation. The visions of the future that came were grim and unnerving. A psychiatrist friend, a woman who has devoted her life to healing people's psyches, grimaced back in 2015 when she found my website, "Oh Jeanne, these are awful. Just awful!"I thought, well, that's what my students and I were seeing and we had the accuracy to back it up. But then a friend Brian who meditates two hours a day and has what I'd call is an emotionally-balanced view of the world, got me to focus some effort into looking for positive visions of the future. At the 2017 Solstice reading we did that as a group. We looked for positive views of the future.. Now I'm seeing that so many of these positive visions are coming true. We saw the "Me Too" movement before it took off, for example. So we now do both. We look for the positive in one meditation, then another meditation on whatever we see.Natalie has also been so helpful with her sobering view of you-know-who, when she feels that some predictions are too optimistic. Here's the thing: It's tricky when we are trying to find the future. The world you experience is the one you perceive, whether it's the world you are in now or the one in the future. Perceptions vary. So realities vary. We need a balance.When I read Natalie's recent two posts, I thought of Winston Churchill who early on saw Adolph Hitler as a threat to all of Europe, not just Germany. (If you haven't seen The Darkest Hour, it is a good movie about what happened, although with some Hollywood embellishments.)Churchill saw who Hitler was early on and did not pink cloud the prevailing hope that Hitler would confine his dictatorship to Germany. Later when Churchill proved right and Hitler had taken over Europe and was advancing towards Britain, it was Churchill who mustered the courage and the hope to stand up to the monster and defeat him. So any thoughts? This is tough stuff.

Natalie,

My heart and my thoughts go out to you. It's very challenging to live with painful thoughts and challenging experiences.

I send you much love and understanding.

May my higher collective self and power connect to yours with only love and acceptance of this journey.
