A beginner's guide to Atlantis

Today I thought that I'd have a little fun and go out on a limb, so to speak, and talk about Atlantis.  It is not just some old myth but something that is quite real and directly relevant to what we're all doing Now!

Atlantis was an amazing society that reached heights we can now only dream of, yet we are re-creating it once again!  I'll explain this more in a minute.  First, Atlantis existed a long time ago, in linear terms.  It's final dissolution was approximately 13,000 years ago, and the world we're living in is the beginnings of the return to those great heights.  It had existed for 10's of thousands of years, developing from ages long gone by.  It came forth during the later years of the earlier Lemurian civilization, which is steeped in even greater mystery!  The current world we are now creating is going to be a combination of the best of both those experiences, and will reach even greater heights.
Now bear with me, much of what I'm going to relay to you has been gleaned from many sources, most of them not "scientifically" verifiable(yet) but it is likely that we'll see at least some of this evidence come forth in our lifetimes.  
Life is a process of constant evolution and it goes the same for each of us individually and collectively.  While Atlantis achieved tremendous heights, ultimately it was unbalanced at a deep level which led to its downfall and destruction. This is the way of the Universe/Creator/G-D/etc.  When things are built on a solid foundation of love and light-they prosper.  When this process is not honored it sows the seeds of its own undoing, and that's what happened. 
So where was Atlantis?  There's a lot of dispute about this and Atlantis is placed in many different locations.  I'll give you my intuitive description of where I think it was.  Atlantis - the main part of it was a series of large islands located in the mid-Atlantic region.  It connected in a southwesterly direction thru what is the United States in a land bridge that ran into what is now Central America/Mexico area.  There were also large separate populated areas in what is now Brazil and into the Andes mountains.  Remember now that the world map has changed since it's destruction, especially in N. America.  Most of the southeast US including Florida, Georgia, S. Carolina and the southern gulf states were underwater in shallow seas.  Ocean currents were obviously different then, and weather patterns were too.  The entire Atlantean area experienced very pleasant weather year-round.
How did they operate?  We tend to think that civilizations develop on a single-line path, but they don't.  Atlantis developed itself over thousands of years and with a lot of help into a society that didn't need fossil fuels.  They learned secrets of crystalline technology to the point that it was the basis for all of their needs to power their society.  They understood these things to such a level that we are now only beginning to understand. 
At the time of the height of Atlantis they were operating at a 4th and 5th dimensional level of expression, something that we are now only just returning to after all these thousands of years.  Much of what will come forth in technology, science and the healing arts are things that people are now beginning to remember from previous lifetimes in Atlantis and even Lemuria.
Each time a human expression arises in a civilization it has a theme.  In Atlantis the theme was "Knowledge is power".  Atlanteans focused their expression primarily from the mental planes and developed them to a very high degree and enjoyed the fruits of that expression for what we would consider to be an amazing amount of time.  But when it came time to measure their progress and move to an even higher level of life expression, they found themselves not in balance with Universal law and their civilization was destroyed, so that it could begin again.  This occurs in cycles as the planet moves on its great orbit through the galaxy about every 26,000 years.  Thankfully, we are now at the point of choice once again, and we will be returning and re-claiming the energies to be able to advance once again to a higher level.
Some other thoughts:  Most, if not all of us now living have had many lifetimes of experience in Atlantis and we hold the energies both good and not so good about those times.  Perhaps you can imagine if you lived in a place with so much light and knowledge for so long, then seeing it destroyed and then losing the high vibrational consciousness that created it, to begin the long journey of return for a 2nd chance.  This is what you and I are now doing.  The rememberance of the collapse of Atlantis and Lemuria are stored within the unconscious and the cellular memory of each of us.  This present time is learning to connect to ourselves in a new way, releasing the extreme traumas of those times and re-integrating parts of ourselves that have been long forgotten, sounds exciting eh?
Much of what we're seeing and experiencing on Earth today is a re-playing of these old dramas so that we can move past them.  Remember, although we see time as a straight line from past to future, it is really not that way.  Time can be more accurately described as non-linear and multi-dimensional with the movement being more like a spiral.  That's why there is such an attraction to books like "The Power of Now" by Eckhart Tolle and other similar concepts.  We are beginning to remember!  In remembering we now must move forward into the unknown and leave behind the ways of being and living that have served us in the old 3rd dimensional world that we are leaving.  Faith and trust are key to this process as we shed the old to make way for the new.  I expect that in the next 20 years we will begin to see that we've truly "turned the corner" into a creation of love and light that is our true birthright.  Let it begin with you and me as we trust what's in our heart's and bring it forth!

Blessings,

Fear is a 4 letter word

In response to my last blog post from Larry, I'd like to write something about fear and how it pertains to our lives in the present. 

Many have heard that the acronym for fear is False Evidence Appearing Real.  Now, it sure feels justified to be in fear, especially in challenging times like we are all in at present.  Many are faced with situations of losing what they thought was stable in their lives, jobs, homes, health, marriages, etc.  This of course is unsettling and can evoke strong feelings of fear.  "What am I going to do?  How will I take care of myself?  Will I be alright?"  The world "out there"  that we see in the media shows us that the world is uncertain and dangerous, and if we're not careful we'll be pulled under by it all.
     The first thing I say is be honest with yourself and ask "What's my worst case scenario?"  Realize that after you do that you will have focused your thoughts on the situation and begun the process of creating what you Do want.  Things have happened, yes they are uncomfortable and stressful and have caused your life to change.  So what?  Are you any less loveable?  Not likely!  Once you've looked at the situation you can now begin to formulate a plan of action to create what you do want in your life to feel better.
     It's up to each of us to begin to see that we create our reality from our thoughts and feelings.  Change your thoughts, change your life.  Easily said, hard to do.  Why is that?  We are creatures of habit.  We tend to have the same thoughts every day more or less and we keep ourselves in boxes of our own making.  Break out of the box!  Use fear as a tool to move into more love in your life.  When I speak of love, I don't limit it to just romantic notions, but instead to the greater idea that all we truly are is Love-yet it is hidden away from us by the world we were born into which has been based on a 3D concept.
In the 3rd dimension you had to choose between fear and love.  The 3rd dimension is about duality, a polarity of thought.   In the next phase, the 4th dimension love is the motivator and fear is to be used as a tool in order to assist one towards the path of love.  (Please see earlier postings for additional comments on this).  In the 5th dimension the only motivator is love. 
     What you focus on expands.  Most, if not all of what we experience as fear comes from being unaware, being unconscious.  We'd like to think that because we're awake we're conscious, but that's not the case, it takes effort!  We are meant to live in the joy of being here and creating, not suffering.  Our lives are temporary, even if you live 100 years its temporary.  At some point you will leave your body and return to the other side.  While you're here keep it simple!  Be in gratitude for the sunshine and warmth- spring is approaching.  Make a gratitude list for what you do have.  It will help to re-focus your mind on all that Is working.
One of the tricks of it all is to love yourself.  Yes, you may have made choices to be in a job or relationship that ended and now you're in fear.  Instead, realize that you did the best you could and made the best choices possible at the time, but now you've outgrown them and it's time to move on.  It is your soul pushing you to open up to a better situation where there is more love.  It is the nature of life to evolve!  We can get hung up because we tend to identify with our physical beings and think that's all there is, yet in truth we are powerful spiritual beings who volunteered to come here to live in forgetfulness of our true nature in order to grow back to our Source.  So today choose to love yourself, do something, even the smallest act to show yourself that you are your source and work to build that reality for yourself.  It will come back to you ten-fold. 
I could go on and on about fear.  I'd rather be in love with my life.  Wouldn't you? 
We are building a new world here right now, that's what the 5th dimension is all about.  What is not love Will fall away, and yes we may be frightened by what may occur in the coming years.  Let's instead work to focus our thoughts on loving ourselves first and then expanding that love like islands rising from the sea until we are all connected in a new space where we can each live from our heart's desire, knowing we are safe, loving and loved.  Because of the love we have already shown our world is being given the gift of rising back to a state, a vibration of love that hasn't been seen on this planet since before recorded history, and we get to be here to see it!  Give yourself a pat on the back and smile.  I'll leave you with this quote:

"Only love is real, nothing unreal exists.  Herein lies the peace of God."  -ACIM  

I want to be that peaceful!

Blessings,

Spring Equinox 2010-turning up the heat

As we move further into March and the Equinox on the 20th the amount of Light streaming onto the planet continues to increase.  This light is not in the normally visible spectrum, but just because you don't see it doesn't mean that it's not having an effect.  Quite the opposite!  These waves of light are continuing to refine and empower the movement of the planet(and us) into the 5th dimension.  Some now are entering that space, and many more are to follow.  The duality game is ending and it is now time to move to a higher space. 
     Now I must clarify that this is an internal process for each of us.  It is not related to things outer, but within us.  I know that this can be understood intellectually, yet it is often challenging to embrace.  Why is this so?  Often it is the emotional body, that energetic part of ourselves that gets side-tracked by fear.  And what do we seem to have in abundace?  FEAR...  Fear is an illusion that has been promoted in overtime in order to control people, allowing those that would benefit from the current situation to retain their power-and control.  How do we conquer fear?  With Awareness.  What is awareness?  It is being in the present moment.  Unless you are being threatened by something or someone now, whatever fear you may feel is a construct of your thoughts.  Change is movement and it can be into the unknown, and this will create an opportunity for fear.
    Back to the waves of light.  As we continue to move forward into this shift of consciousness we will continue to feel the effects of these waves of light which are restructuring the ground of our reality to a higher vibration.  As one of my teachers says:  "You can't take your baggage with you"  and that is definitely the case.  Anything which does not vibrate to the core truth of the love you are will be challenged by these waves of light.  You may have a loss of job, relationship, living situation, etc.  Try not to take it personally, we're each working out lifetimes of energies!  You are loved regardless of what has happened or may happen!  Stay in your Now moment, get grounded and breathe!  Believe in your life, believe that there's a reason for you being here at this time.  You are sacred!

Thank you for reading.  I welcome your comments and questions.
