Message from Jen

Hello fellow Starseeds! A few of you are asking for clarification regarding the symbol you received from Peter to access the Web of Collective Unity Consciousness (WCUC). I knew questions would arise, so I asked Peter if I should share the symbol I received. He said no. Here is the reason: The symbol is different for each individual Starseed. I will let Peter explain the rest.

Message from Peter

Dearest Starseeds, we do apologize for any confusion regarding the access symbol. It will, indeed, be a different symbol for each individual starseed. The symbol was encoded into your DNA by your higher self for secure connection purposes. More than likely, your access symbol will be extremely familiar to you, and there is good reason for that. You have most likely found yourself attracted to this particular symbol since your awakening. The first time you ever noticed it, you were most likely fascinated by it, and began drawing it often or have purchased several items for yourself that have this symbol in it. The reason for your fixation on this particular symbol isn’t necessarily what you think it is. The reason is actually because your higher self encoded it into your DNA as your pass symbol to the Web.

SO… that mystery being solved… let’s try this again. When you are relaxed and heart centered, call on me, Peter, to telepathically flash your PERSONAL symbol to you. Once you have it, you can envision it in your mind’s eye anytime you would like to access the Web. Please do not share your symbol with others. Yes, you have backup symbols encoded in case you accidentally shared it in your excitement or anxiety about whether or not you saw the right symbol.

Again, please relax, Starseeds. We know you are all very anxious to connect with one another and to begin your personal and group missions. We are excited about this, too! This is why we ask you to become relaxed and heart centered, so that you can be absolutely certain in faith that you have the correct symbol and that yes, you have indeed made a clear connection.

As stated before, if you are unable to connect, simply work on raising your vibration.

We are currently working on some new information for you entitled Steps to Self Love that should be published this coming weekend that will help you work on raising your vibration if you continue to experience access issues.

Until then, all our love to you!

Being Sarah | An Introduction to the Web of Collective Consciousness

Message from Jen:

As promised in my November 14 video update, I am going to begin channeling messages from my higher self (Scarborough/Master Sarah) that focus on what our Masters, Teachers and Loved Ones of the Akashic Records want us to know regarding Collective Consciousness. Sarah’s mastery is in the area of Collective Unity Consciousness, so who better to teach us? That is my thought, anyway, so, in honoring my higher self and my own personal Divine Will, I hereby state that my code of intention is to relay to you the messages of Master Sarah as I receive them through my personal Akashic Records exactly as they are received without any egoic interpretation by my lower self. My personal disclaimer here is that I am JUST the messenger; don’t shoot me! My intention is to use my gift of telepathy to receive and record the clearest messages possible. I am asking Master Sarah to keep her messages simple, direct and to the point so that everyone can understand them. We will now begin.

Message from Master Sarah:

Greetings seekers and wayshowers of light. I am the one many of you refer to as Master Sarah there on Earth. Some do not believe I ever existed, but I assure you that I did. Although both my existence and my teachings in the mastery of Collective Consciousness were kept highly confidential and exclusive by a group many know as “The Keepers” or “The Illuminated Ones”* when I walked the Earth as Sarah, daughter of Jesus and Mary Magdalene, we now feel that it is time to bring these teachings into light. Now that there are so many “Illuminated Ones” walking Mother Earth today, we feel, in order to protect this planet and bring her back into natural order from all of the chaos, it is time to teach you, the seekers and wayshowers, how to use the very web of communication you created many ages ago.

Now, please understand, the WEB I refer to is not your Internet, although your Internet is a cumbersome computerized simulation of the web I am referring to. If currently you are a seeker, your ability to receive messages through this web of collective consciousness is most likely up and running, or, as you refer to it: “online.” Do know, however, that there are no physical “lines” in this particular web. It is all purely telepathic.

Seekers are those who are new to the web of collective consciousness. They are currently receiving messages, (either consciously or subconsciously) and they are driven to begin their spiritual quest. Wayshowers of light (also known as lightworkers) have been on the receiving end for quite some time now – perhaps all of their current conscious life on Earth. Wayshowers are capable of both sending and receiving messages through the web of collective consciousness. Some of them may be fully aware of this capability while others are still not quite sure.

Let us be clear: you ALL have these abilities.

If you are reading this message and doubting it, you are a seeker. If you are reading this message and fully accepting of it without any doubts or reservations about it, you are a wayshower. (Please watch your thoughts from here on out, wayshowers, for everything you think is sent out as vibration through this web of collective consciousness.)

Think of the Web of Collective Consciousness as a conference call where the leaders talk while several others listen in on the conversation. Wayshowers are currently the leaders, for they have done the work and raised their vibrations high enough that they are capable of sending strong messages with their thoughts alone into this web. Everyone is capable of receiving these messages if they are in tune. The strength of the sender OR the unity of the collective sending the thoughts and vibrations through the web is what determines what the collective (of both seekers and wayshowers) receives.

Again, we urge all of you to keep your thoughts and energy clean, clear, positive and full of the highest light and vibration, for this is what will completely change your world by your OWN doing. We have told you before that you have the power to change your world simply through your thoughts and vibrations. We do not quite understand why you are not yet taking full advantage of that.

Many of you are still fully engaged in the 3D happenings of your world, as if you are constantly checking to see if your energy is working yet. Dear ones, doing this is like the leader of the race continuously looking back to make sure he is still in first place. We ask you, what happens each time he does this? Does looking back make him physically run forward faster? No! It is a waste of energy that only interrupts his momentum! Not to mention that looking back is a bit egotistical, is it not? Or maybe it is a lack of trust? In one’s own abilities, perhaps? We are not sure why you do this, but, trust us when we say it is not necessary. It is only slowing your progress.

So often we hear so many of you wondering WHY are we not seeing any changes yet?

And that is exactly why – your inability to let go of the density! Even if you tell yourselves you are “just checking in order to see what more needs to be done.” Trust us when we say this… JUST LEAD.

Even if you are unsure of what you are receiving from the collective is “real” or “true,” we assure you, you will NOT find any evidence of it in the 3D world. Only wayshowers and seekers will come to know the truth through collective consciousness, and that is because they went looking for it; they never trusted in the first place that what they were experiencing in the third dimension was real or true.

Why do you think the web of collective consciousness is not a tangible thing, dear ones? Why is it invisible to the naked eye? Because it is not MEANT for those still vibrating in the lower frequencies. It is only meant for those who know they are much more than what they have been told. And it is through this knowing that the awakened seekers and wayshowers have access to this “secret” web of collective consciousness.

Think about it. Those who know what collective consciousness is only know because they went looking for it, correct? And only the truly awakened would know to look for it or be able to tap into it.

So you know about it. The web of collective consciousness. The transfer of thoughts and vibration through thin air. It exists. You can sense it. You can hear it and feel it, but you cannot touch it or see it. But you can trust that it is there for your use.

Now our question is… what will you do with it?

We do have suggestions, but we will save that for another day. Please stay tuned. And we do mean that in the most spiritual sense! Namaste, dear ones.

*The “Illuminated Ones” referred to here by Master Sarah are NOT to be confused with today’s “Illuminati.”

My Akashic Journey – Chapter Six – The Unexpected One

love vibrationsNot to be pious or anything, but I’m going to open this chapter with a quote. No, it’s not a Biblical quote, but as informal as my work has been up until now, this might feel a little… awkward. It came across my screen while I was pondering exactly how I was going to lay this out for you all, (and worrying about the ramifications) and it just felt like it was a bit of encouragement. So here it is…

“One of the most important of life´s lessons is to learn independence, to understand freedom. This means independence from attachments, from results, from opinions, and from expectations. Breaking attachments leads to freedom, but breaking attachments does not mean abandoning a loving and meaningful relationship, a relationship that nourishes your soul. It means ending dependency on any person or thing. Love is never a dependency.” ~ Brian L. Weiss

Breaking this down, the very first thing that stuck out as a message for me personally is the bit that says:

“This means independence from attachments, from results, from opinions, and from expectations.”

The first person I shared my 2006 DaVinci Code experience with was Ariel DeAngelis. I shared it with her on January 10th, 2013. Seven years later. Yes, for seven years I kept a secret about myself. I know that is hard to believe. Probably because it is still hard for me to believe, even thought I KNOW it to be true. This is a perfect example of the mind/ego ruling the heart and denying truth. We do this all the time, don’t we?

I can tell you right now why I never told a soul. Because NO ONE would believe me. Ever. And I figured if I told anyone, I’d find myself locked up in a padded cell for life. No need to sacrifice my “freedom” for truth. But this quote here reminded me that freedom is independence from results and opinions.

Now part of me is still wondering why it is even necessary to divulge this information. In service to self, it is small. There is nothing to gain from it personally. In service to others, it is huge. If only I could prove it, this information would free a LOT of people from the deception the church has held over them for the past 2013 years. (I don’t know why I was just prompted to write 2016, but I corrected it to 2013. I’m sure there is a reason.) If they wanted a reason to NOT believe anymore, that is. And that is where the rest of this quote really becomes powerful in persuading me to tell my truth…

“Breaking attachments leads to freedom, but breaking attachments does not mean abandoning a loving and meaningful relationship, a relationship that nourishes your soul. It means ending dependency on any person or thing. Love is never a dependency.”

This has SO MANY meanings, without a doubt. It is completely open for interpretation. But, because it rolled out in front of me on the screen of my laptop WHILE I was contemplating how… and why I should come out with this information, this is how I interpreted this particular message for myself…

So many people are attached to their religion. To the doctrine and the rhetoric of their religion. SO MANY people believe that Christ died for their sins. And that he resurrected. These people had a FIT when DaVinci Code came out and suggested that Christ was (ermagerd!!!) MARRIED and that his WIFE Mary Magdalene had a baby girl named Sarah. (Blasphemous!!!)

Is it, though? We can all agree that Jesus was born into Jewish culture, correct? And, in Jewish culture, it is pretty common for a man to have a wife (and sexual intercourse) and child, correct?

I’m not so sure why it is so unfathomable to some Christians that Jesus Christ possibly had sex with a woman he was married to and produced offspring, but it is perfectly okay to believe that he ran around in a robe and sandals with a bunch of dudes who professed their love for him, healed a blind man, walked on water and turned water into wine. Seriously???

Okay, it’s 2013… can we be a tiny bit realistic about this for once? Does having a wife really make Jesus less magical? Does it make him less likely to have been such a great teacher or prophet? What if he never really walked on water? Or turned water into wine? Or, how about this… what if he never resurrected? What if… he never even died on that cross? Does that negate the lessons he tried to teach us wayyyyy back then?

Isn’t it the message that’s important? That we’re ALL ONE? That we should love our neighbor and not judge others?

Ohh… THAT was the message?

You see, so many people are ATTACHED to the MAGIC and the GLORY. Especially the bit about him coming back to life for three days before ascending. Hmm. Really?

I was sort of digging the message much more. But, then again, most people remember Ozzy Osbourne more for biting the head off of a bat on stage than the lyrics to his music. Did he have anything profound to say? You see, I just don’t know, because the bat-beheading-with-teeth bit just turned me off so much I never bothered to listen. Now the guy is pretty much impossible to understand, anyway, so it just seems pointless to pay him any attention. And that’s probably not fair, given that it is an attachment opinion that I have to Ozzy, who I’m sure must be a decent guy if he could hook a woman as wonderful as Sharon. Just sayin’. Plus he has millions of fans who adore him. (In all fairness, the bat was thrown onstage by a fan who insisted it was dead. Ozzy thought it was a rubber bat, but when he bit it, the bat bit back, and Ozzy had to be treated for rabies. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozzy_Osbourne.)

So where am I going with all of this? Well, it has a bit to do with service to others, although I don’t really know exactly how reliable my information can possibly be given that I am currently incarnate as a simple spiritualist with absolutely zero credibility in the religious and even spiritualist sector. I read Akashic Records for people. Sometimes I am dead-on accurate. Other times… maybe not so much. I humbly channel the wisdom of a Pleiadian being who calls himself Peter on occasion. Although I have been told by my Akashic Records that my purpose in this life is to reunite with my twin-flame soul mate and become post 2012 healers through “the vision plus the word,” and that the work I will be most known for is “Unity Consciousness,” I still have no real concept for what it all means. I can’t even successfully reunite with my twin-flame soul mate, so… obviously there is still a LOT of work to be done. And I don’t even know where to begin. It feels like it is all out of my hands. Everything is. I have no job. No income, other than unemployment benefits which are due to decrease soon and eventually run out. I can’t pay my mortgage this month. I know I can OPPT in to OPPT out of that, but it still feels like a bit of a tightrope walk. I keep saying out loud several times a day, “I don’t know what to do.”

All this time on my hands with nowhere to go and hardly anyone to talk to has forced me to remember who I am. To rewind and replay all the memories that led up to the DaVinci Code moment in 2006 that may help some people detach from the deceptive power and control the “church” has had over them all their lives. (And I say “lives” meaning more than ONE, although I know many Christians do not believe in reincarnation. Most believe they live only once and then go to either Heaven or Hell based on how well they allowed the church to control them and shake out every loose bit of change they had tucked away before they died.)

I feel like the little drummer boy. With no gift fit for a king, all he could offer was the beat of his drum to honor the baby Jesus. Well, to honor Jesus, the man and the teacher, and all of his TRUE followers who offer love and compassion and service to others WITHOUT tithing to ANY church, I offer my truth.

Notice I did not say STORY. Because STORY would imply FICTION. This is NOT fiction. This is the truth. And I offer it without any attachment to results or the opinions of others. I do this out of love. Love for the man and teacher who tried to tell us so many years ago that God/Source is not found in a church… that God is everywhere, in everything: “I am the light that shines over all things. I am everything. From me all came forth, and to me all return. Split a piece of wood, and I am there. Lift a stone, and you will find me there.” (Lost Gospel of Thomas.) And I do this out of love for myself, so that I can be free and independent from attachment. For it is true that love is not attachment. Love is a vibration. And the only way we can raise our vibrations is to free ourselves by sharing our truth and love through service to others. I tell this truth so that you, too, can be free from all of the deception and power and control of the very religions that took the teachings of Jesus Christ and twisted them into a reversal that had you believing the opposite of what he taught in order to gain profit for themselves and their cults.

Rewind.

November 2006. DaVinci Code had just been released on DVD. At the time, I was living with my life partner of six years, a United Church of Christ pastor who had taught me more about religion, the Bible and Christianity than I ever cared to know.

I grew up unchurched. No one taught me anything about God or Jesus. I started reading Genesis in our family Bible at the age of eight. After reading three different creation stories I told my mom, “This book is too contradictory! I’m done reading this crap!”

Why I even picked it up to read it is beyond me. Maybe it was because a long-haired bearded man kept appearing to me when I was exploring the woods alone. I never told anyone about him because he was kind of huge and floated up near the tree tops and no one would believe me.

Anyway… DaVinci Code. Yeah. The book had caused a major uproar all across the country. My life-partner hosted a book study on it at our church, but those things always turned out to be a bunch of drama if I attended because I had some very stiff opinions about “The Bible” that I was not afraid to voice, and I always ended up getting lambasted for my “comments.” So, needless to say, I declined the invitation to attend. I also refused to read the book. We had already watched every docudrama produced about it. I really didn’t need to waste time reading it. So, when the life-partner brought home the DVD and asked if I would watch it with her I yawned and said “sure.” I could always accidentally fall asleep.

Surprisingly, that didn’t happen. Even more surprisingly, as the story came to a close at the Rosslyn Chapel in Scotland, I felt the presence of an enormous energy in the room. My own “keepers” had entered my space with a message delivered by a warm, gentle man’s voice who told me “Yes, Jesus really did have a wife named Mary Magdalene, and yes, they really had a baby named Sarah. And YOU were that baby, Jennifer.”

But, before he even said it, I already knew it. And, as quickly as I knew it, I shoved it all away and denied it. “That’s a bunch of shit,” I found myself telepathically telling this huge, loving energy that had entered my living room.

And I never thought about it again. Until 2008, when I watched the movie with my friend Alex. Again, I got the same feeling, although the energy present was nowhere near as enormous. It was just a “friendly reminder” presence. To which I just simply said, “No!”

Fast Forward.

I never thought about it again until January 10, 2013 when it popped up out of the blue as a possible topic to take up telepathically with Ariel DeAngelis. But I didn’t. Instead, I wrote to her about it. And, like I said before, she is the first person I ever told. Her response to me was:

“Well, Sarah 😉 (in case you hadn’t guessed I’m getting a VERY strong affirmative on that one too!!)”

After reading this, I felt as if my heart had leaped right out of my chest, I was so overjoyed with the affirmation. I felt a tremendous upsurge of energy that felt like I could almost fly. And then there was this enormous presence in the room. I mean, huger than huge. The largest, warmest, most loving presence I have ever felt in my entire life. My dogs began stirring and whining to go outside, so I got up from the couch and walked through the dark kitchen. The overhead lights and countertop outlets had mysteriously stopped working and had been dead for at least two weeks. My tenant John and I had checked all the breakers and reset every single one – three times – in effort to restore power, but to no avail. As I was walking through, I flipped the overhead switch out of habit, AND… the lights mysteriously came ON for the first time in two weeks. I was startled at first, and then elated. And then it came… as predictable and cliché as ever… the familiar male voice from my childhood woods stomping grounds… “Let there be light!” and then a warm chuckle.

I laughed. And laughed. And laughed some more. What else can you do in a moment like this? Okay, maybe I cried, too. A little. His energy was like nothing I have ever felt before in my life. It’s indescribable. It’s like being swaddled in the warmest, softest blanket imaginable and gently and lovingly rocked into your deepest relaxed state before sleep. Not that you’d want to sleep, of course, because his energy is just too cheerful and charming to snooze through.

We had a nice father/daughter chat. I asked him many, many questions. One of my most favorite things about him is his sense of humor. Yes. Jesus has an amazing sense of humor! I bet you didn’t know that. I bet you never even DREAMED that. Neither did I. Of course, I am sure that with me he feels he can be far more candid than he can with someone like John Smallman. Which was one of my questions.

“Are you really talking to Smallman?”

“Yes, dear. I am.”

Good. So there you go. Naysayers begone.

One of my favorite things that he said to me was, “So… how did you like me when I was John Lennon?”

I KNEW IT!!!

My other favorite was when I asked, “Soo… should I call you dad?”

“Nah. Too stuffy. How about Jesus Daddy-O? Far more hip, dontcha think?”

So Jesus Daddy-O it is. But that is just between me and him. I really probably shouldn’t be sharing this, but… after 2013 (16?) years… it’s about time you knew that he DOES have a lighter side.

Now, unless instructed, I am NOT going to start channeling Jesus. That is John Smallman’s gig. I am also not going to answer questions about Jesus. Or ask him questions for you. This is not why I am sharing any of this with you. I am sharing this simply to allow people to free themselves from the deception of the church.

I asked him if he died on the cross. He said no, he did not. I asked him if he was ever ON a cross. Again, NO, he was never nailed to a cross. He was exiled and moved with Mary Magdalene and a number of others (disciples – more than just the 12) to France where he lived another 30 years and died in his late 60s of natural causes. This is as detailed as I am going to get with this. That is all I feel (at this time) anyone needs to know.

I just asked him if there is anything he wants to say to the people in his own words in this chapter. He said no. I asked him if he wants people to be free from the church. He said yes. And I do believe that is the only message I am here to carry out, other than whatever it is I am supposed to do in the future with my post-2012 healing work with my twin-flame soul mate and Unity Consciousness. When I figure it out, hopefully with the help of my higher guidance, I will let you all know.

Until then, I wish all of you joy, love, freedom and independence from attachment!

As promised, here is my Akashic Reading on this subject:

In 2006, while watching the movie DaVinci Code, I felt a presence of several friendly beings fill the room. I was told that it is true that Jesus and Mary Magdalene were married and had a baby named Sarah and that I (my higher self) was that baby. What can you tell me about this?

Welcome, brave soul. We applaud and admire your courage. We thought this day would never come, but we are very happy that it has. Yes, it is true that Jesus and Mary Magdalene were married and that your higher self (soul/light being) incarnated as their daughter, Sarah. You grew up in France, surrounded by very highly spiritual people under very loving influences. It was a happy life, although very sheltered. Jesus had been exiled for his teachings, and there were some who truly did want to kill him. So you lived a very quiet life in France. As you grew older, Luke, your twin-flame soul mate (yes, the one in the Bible who wrote the letters to Paul) made you his wife, and you had two children. The history books tell many different tales about Luke, and, as you can research for yourself, the details are all over the map. He was an artist and a disciple (follower) and apostle (teacher) of Jesus, even though history writes him as an apostle of Paul. It’s all far more simple than “history” makes it out to be, you see. Yes, you had a sort of commune-type living in France, but for good reason. It was more about lying low for survival’s sake, but it was pleasant and serene.

I feel part of my purpose in this life is to share this truth – that Jesus and Mary Magdalene WERE married and did have a child and that Jesus was never crucified on the cross. I know this will cause me a great deal of trouble and more grief than I have already experienced, but I feel it is important to share this truth to help free those who have been taken advantage of by the church for so many centuries. I don’t wish to cause trouble. Only to help heal. How can I do this with the least amount of harm and harassment to myself?

You’re doing it. You’ve written your truth. Now you publish it, and you move on. The next big thing is around the corner. (Word count at the end of this sentence: 3,333.)

Collective Consciousness – A Call to Balance

FreerSpirit Collective Consciousness Tags: , , , 2 Comments

 

The Flower of Life symbol reminds us that we're all connected

I received the following in a spiritual newsletter on Saturday,
November 21, 2009:

The World of Now

“The reality earth plane on which you currently exist is a result of the energy of your participation. In the time line each generation has left an imprint of positive + negative that has tipped quite vigorously into the negative. This is a result of being unconsciously without the influence of the soul.

Most will reply to this vehemently that they have participated religiously within the parameters of their linear consciousness…the spiritual influences being regulated by a confined perspective that places all spiritual power + creation to an outside source.

Our position is that by bringing the soulful energy into the person [it] can alter the imbalance that is occurring.

Generations of incarnated souls have been aligned to place the power of thought outside of themselves. The idea of a god being the omnipotent energy that decides the path of the physical beings that worship him.

Now that the planet’s energy is dangerously askew we implore all souls incarnate to bring that omnipotent energy where it belongs, to the internal thought process by which all of you create reality (i.e. free will).

Your current linear is salvageable, however, the declaration of concentrated thought must be reclaimed so that the balance of energy can be regained. Free will is the claiming of the thought process that saves… so to speak…everything.

Do not feel the linear influence – “Oh I am but one.”

All of you come from unique entity sources designed to bring a balance of perspective to your linear creation.

Participate energetically. Your connection to others may + will influence the mass consciousness creation that has gone awry.

Seize each day and bring your energy to it. It will make a difference. Think.

Be persistent. Be linear while expressing your eternal soul. It is why you are here.

Become the energy of your soul and all will be well.

What if you were the one soul needed to tip the balance to the more positive participation?

–VERONICA

This is my response:

Collective consciousness is more powerful than any of us could have ever imagined.

What is collective consciousness, exactly? Basically it is the combined power of the mindset of every living human being on the planet.

You’ve probably heard the theory that you create your own reality with your thoughts – and that you can change your reality merely by changing your thought process. Negative Nellies will, of course, say “That’s bullshit.” And, of course, with this attitude, they will continue to experience more of the same negative results in their life.

It is true that some people fear change. Even if what they have experienced all their lives has been negative, they will resist changing their thinking because negativity is so familiar to them that it is almost a comfort…and it is definitely a habit.

The problem with this is that they are not just keeping themselves down; they are also affecting the balance of the collective consciousness web that controls the energy flow of our planet.

Think of every negative person you know – and include yourself if you know you have tendencies to swing to a negative mindset more often than not. Now visualize of each of these people as a sinker weight attached to the connecting strings within your social web. What’s happening to the web?

I watched the movie America last night. It’s a movie produced by Rosie O’Donnell that depicts the failing foster care system in the state of Michigan, and also in the United States. Many of these kids end up homeless, in prison, or dead after they age out of the foster care system when they become eighteen. These are sad statistics, indeed, and the movie left me feeling quite sad for these kids who have often been abused – physically and sexually – by either members of their own families or their foster families.

I have always wanted to foster adolescents. Of course, my sexual orientation makes that difficult for me to do in the state of Michigan. I also seem to be unemployed A LOT, which makes it even more difficult for me to support the kids I wish to help. As I thought about this after the movie last night, a commercial for antidepressants came on TV. You know the one where the woman winds up the pathetic-looking plastic replica of herself? It shows different clips of her coping with her life and then with her husband and two kids. They are white and appear to be a normal, middle-class family.

After seeing the movie America, all I could think was…what is her PROBLEM? What is OUR problem? Why are there SO MANY depressed people in the world? And why are we so damn UGLY to each other all the time?

I know a lot of it comes from the feeling of separateness. The feeling that we are all alone in this world. Many of us feel  this way because we are putting out negative vibes that drive others away – even if they are negative, too. Everyone has their own set of problems, and no one wants to take on more than their fair share.

Hey, I’ve been unemployed for almost eleven full months now. My parents are dead and most of my family no longer speaks to me. I’ve lost the majority of my friends over the past three years as well. People dislike me because I have written about how this feels – to feel alone, jobless, purposeless, scared, and hated. I focused so much on all that I had lost, that I just kept losing. It became a sickness – feeling sorry for myself and fearing life would never get better. I isolated myself with this attitude. I paralyzed myself with this attitude.

What I’ve discovered is that brooding and pouting about my misfortune is not going to get me anywhere. In fact, it’s only going to get me more of the same. If I keep thinking I’ll never get a job, I won’t. If I keep thinking “I have no friends,” that will always be true.

Whatever we focus on, we get more of that very thing. That is why negative thinking only breeds negative results.

Negativity is often a product of fear. Many times what we fear is what we manifest – because more often than not, we focus more on our fears than we do our hopes and dreams. This is a normal HUMAN thing to do. This is what Veronica means when she speaks of “the linear.” The linear is the physical realm in which we live – in human bodies. For some people, ONLY the linear exists because they do not believe in souls or reincarnation. They believe the life they are living is the ONLY life they will ever live. These are lower-self beliefs.

The higher self, however, knows all and remembers everything about its past lives and past lessons. The higher self is obtainable, but few people attempt to connect with it. The higher self IS the soul. The soul who has lived many lives and understands its purpose. The soul chose to participate as a physical body in the linear/physical world that we all know this dirty, gritty, unfriendly place we call “home.”

We all chose to be here at this time for one reason or another. We CHOSE to be born into the physical. We even chose our parents for a specific reason. We are born all knowing, but we are often nurtured into ignorance about where we came from and why we are here. More often than not, because of the current dark flow of energy in this physical world, we are nurtured into negativity and ruled by fear. It is very rare – especially in American culture – that we are raised knowing and feeling pure, unconditional love and trust.

So, if we chose to be here, why are we so negative?

Well, as we all know, nothing is perfect, and, even though the grass may be greener somewhere else, that “better place” will also have its drawbacks. And, just like medications that are supposed to clear up one health issue, the side effects may create another health risk altogether. Nothing is perfect. Especially human beings. Here’s why: that nasty thing all humans possess – the EGO.

Souls do not have egos. Souls are light beings with energetic chakras. These energetic chakras exist in the astral bodies of the auric field of every human being. Just as every human has a brain, esophagus, heart, stomach, lungs, and reproductive organs, every human also has energetic chakras. Think of the chakras as the “organs” of the soul.

The lower chakras – the base/root, sacral, and solar plexus chakras (red, orange and yellow, respectively) are all directly in tune with the ego and “the lower self.” These are the chakras that keep us grounded to the physical. Basic needs, feelings and emotions, pleasure, power, self-esteem, and a sense of belonging and security are the things these chakras are associated with in our energetic system. These are all the things the ego is attached to, and, when any of these things are taken from us or are threatened, the ego flares, along with adrenaline in the physical body. Fear and negative thinking (worry) can throw these chakras out of balance. When these chakras are out of balance, the rest of the chakras will close. Such imbalances impede the flow of energy and can even cause energy to “get stuck” and cause mental and emotional dis-ease which can, inevitably, lead to health issues or manifest into an actual disease such as cancer.

Yep. We create our own reality. Whether it’s a positive or negative reality is truly up to us. We CAN control our egos by simply living in the heart, rather than the mind. Stop thinking so much and start feeling. Once we start feeling and actually positively CARING, we will start thinking more positive thoughts for ourselves, one another, and our fragile planet.

If our negative conscious thoughts are powerful enough to create our own suffering and disease, just imagine what our positive conscious thoughts are capable of creating. What would happen if every living, breathing human being on this planet focused on global peace and harmony? What would happen if we all imagined clean air, lakes, and streams? A booming economy? Affordable health care for everyone? A loving family for every homeless child? Nutritious food for every hungry mouth? Rain for every drought? What if we focused harder on the solutions than we do on the problems?

Someone once said, “If you believe it, you can achieve it,” and it’s true, but I don’t think we should limit this to our own personal goals.

No matter how “separate” or “alone” we feel in this world, we really are all in this together. Collectively. Consciously. We would all be wise to journey deep within, find our higher selves (soul), live in our heart chakras, and start spreading love. God knows this planet needs it.

Besides…love never hurts anyone.
