As we move to the close of this year and the beginning of the next it is time to take a look at what is happening within and around us. So much is in flux that it can become confusing and frustrating to manage one's reality in the face of such change. If you are searching for your deeper purpose or a renewal of passion and are hearing an inner calling to take a look at your experience of life, then by all means read on.
It is time for each of us to claim our freedom, to step into the unknown boldly, knowing we will be supported. Look at the photo at the heading of this article. You see the open birdcage and the birds released to the larger world. This is a metaphor I will use to explain what is underway within each of us, and is subsequently altering our understanding of reality.
The world has moved into a higher frequency of energy, which I term the 5th dimension. This is represented as the birdcage door being opened and now having the ability to fly out of the constraints of one's cage. The cage itself represents the old paradigm, the known world, the world we each inherited and have been up to now navigating to the best of our ability. It is now a time to realize that we have metaphorical wings, and we were never meant to sit in a birdcage our whole lives. It is time to fly and interact with a larger reality that has been obscured from us for so long.
Humankind is at a critical juncture. Our perceptions of our world and how we interact with it has been based on a limited viewpoint that was supported by the structures we have built- the governments, religions, commerce and others. The energy pattern that we are in the process of shedding allowed for a world to come into existence based on a view of separation. We all have the experience of appearing to be separate beings in a capricious world full of dangers and we must do things to protect and build ourselves up. That has been history. Now we are on the verge of a major paradigm shift. It will arrive in different degrees and different ways depending on who you are and where you are in your life. It will be a challenge for most, maybe even a shock. For others it will be a welcome relief. No one is exempt. You cannot not attend to this shift so long as you are embodied on this planet at this time. The foundation has been laid, and now the building of the new commences. However what has been that no longer serves in this higher frequency will have to fall away to make space for the new.
" I know who you are in truth. I know what you are in truth. I know how you serve in truth. You are free. You are free. You are free." -1
Freedom
It is time to release what no longer serves. The above statement, while deceptively simple, hints at a much greater reality now beckoning us. It has been here for a while, that is the door of the birdcage has been open, but we have been reluctant to fly outside of our known worlds. What is occurring is the very real shaking of each of our birdcages to prompt us to fly into the unknown. You will still be who you are and you will be embracing a larger part of self. The cost will be letting go of fear as your main motivator of choice. Instead we are going to learn to rely on our inner resources to claim more of what we truly are. It is the beginning of the continuum of evolution, a blessed place, a gift we as a collective are giving ourselves and learning to embrace, and it is all about the vibration of love as one's primary motivator.
Truly we are a species with amnesia that is now regaining its awareness of a much larger and lighter sphere of activity and new creation. Gaia, the Earth herself, is also going through this change. What we now see as more extreme and frequent climate change is clearly part of her adjusting herself and we will have to also make changes to adapt to these new realities. The more that we each consciously choose to live from this higher frequency, the less likely we will be subject to more extreme events, either in our personal sphere or in the larger world. It will be vitally important not to go into fear if great change knocks at your door. In those moments it will be helpful to remember that you are a spiritual being having an physical experience and in the truth of who you are you are always safe and protected.
Freedom must be claimed by us, it will not be bestowed upon us without effort. It is part of the learning we have come to experience. Gradually, we come to know the Creator within each of us, loosening the grip of the ego to run our lives. Invite in that experience of the higher you, the Higher Self to assist in this. It is not just a mental process, it will be felt and experienced in a higher integration of the physical, mental and emotional parts of ourselves.
The question of time
The first thing I will say is that all are experiencing a quickening of the passing of time. Things will be transpiring quicker. Events will unfold in a more rapid succession than we've experienced before. This will continue on a yearly basis I feel for at least the next 5-7 years. Resisting this flow will cause you discomfort on one level or another. They way to avoid this is to go with your own personal flow. Find what gives you joy, what gets you excited, what you can see as your highest flow on all levels. Keep things in the material world as simple as you can.
This feeling of things speeding up is happening because we are adjusting within our bodies to a higher flow of energy that has always existed. Now we are much more empowered to connect with it because of this frequency increase. On the level of energetics we are processing more and new frequencies of energy/light through our bodies via the chakra system. Listen to you body's signals and your feelings about what is right for you in each day. These new frequencies are part of the unknown that is coming into each of our awareness. Use your breath and imagine yourself bathing your cells in this new light. It will assist to spend a few minutes a day doing this. There is no rush to do this, just allow what feels right for you. Remember that that speeding up really means we are stepping into more of who and what we are. Find excitement in the possibilities of this, avoid negative feelings. You are the one who will choose how you feel about this.
Consciousness and beliefs
Consciousness is changing rapidly on this planet and this will result in extensive changes to the world we see. The changes that you and I will see most directly will result from changes in our beliefs about ourselves and the world around us. Each of us holds beliefs about ourselves and the world around us. These beliefs for the most part originate from the small self (ego) to make sense of and navigate a world in a body. Being in a body gives us a feeling of separation from that which is "outside" of us. In reality this sense of separation is an illusion of the ego mind. What we are working towards in the realm of freedom is to open ourselves up to an expanded sense of self that we possess that is beyond the confines of being known only as a separate body with boundaries of what is yours and "not yours". It is easy to scoff at this claim, however there are hints that something more is happening. Have you experienced unexpected manifestation of something you desired and it came to you without effort? Have you experienced deja vu? Have you experienced uncanny coincidences in your life? Each of these is a manifestation of energy of your higher self or divine self acting in your consciousness without you following a set of steps for it to arrive as predicated by your beliefs. Instead what has happened is that a small opening was created by you in the reality box of beliefs created by the ego and resulted in a rapid manifestation of your pure intent. This intent is activated via your heart energy, which operates without words and only in the higher vibrations of love.
If you take some time to examine your beliefs you will see that they are rooted in your past, based on what you experienced yourself or what others told you that you needed to attend to, or those who wished to define who you are. These beliefs have created a bird cage or a metaphorical box that each of us has operated from for most of life. Know the challenge will be to practice knowing ourselves in a new way, setting aside the box, the bird cage and going into the unknown with the intent of finding something new, something joyful for you.
There is now the perfect moment to challenge ourselves in discovering more about our journey by being fully in the present moment and starting a conversation with our heart energy about what will bring to us the greatest purpose and passion. The ego or small self will do whatever it can to convince you that you are fine where you are, and you have every right to choose to remain within your known world. It is my understanding that choosing that path will lead to considerable discomfort and possibly distress because we are being called to move into exploration and claiming of something much better and much expanded. To stay contracted is to say yes to fear and get the same results one has gotten. Where's the fun in that? Humans, life, the known Universe all are in a state of expansion. That is where the flow resides. This is why it is so important to consider flying out of our birdcages into an expanded sense of self and new possibilities. Focus Energy to Alter the Results (FEAR). In order to bypass the web of fear based thinking we are going to have to claim the greater energy of who we are within our bodies and start to consciously work with it. As each of us does this it will build a momentum across the human collective and in time it will become accepted as truth by all.
2019-The momentum accelerates
If you look at your experience just over the last two years you will see how much has transpired. In the coming year you can count on this to accelerate events at an even faster rate, up to a ten-fold increase. This is why I am writing about this phenomenon and encouraging you to take hold of your conscious choice joined with your heart. I believe that it will serve us each very well to practice manifestation in this way instead of staying in our established belief patterns. They will still be there and now you will be adding a new way of consciously doing things with a stronger flow of energy that is connected to your higher self/divine self which is waiting for you to claim it. Humanity is at the precipice of a quantum leap in its expression on this planet, and each of us through our conscious actions and invitation to this higher energy will result in unexpected and wonderful change. Know that you are the source of your reality, not something external to you like the systems I mentioned at the beginning of this article.
Bypass fear by making conscious higher choices for yourself. You are in a learning and growing phase and it is difficult, especially since most of us have been steeped in the old all of our lives. Seek counsel from the wise, and don't be surprised if they are in a child's body. The new and recent generations of humans, especially those born since 2001 are naturally tuned to respond to the higher frequencies now available, that is why they came. While wisdom can come with age, when you encounter someone ask your intuition "Are they in their bird cage/box, or have they set themselves free?" You will receive you answer instantly. Those who are still tightly holding onto their boxes of belief will be quick to defend their understanding and their worldview, primarily because they believe it is what keeps them safe in the world. Now is the time to be flexible and open to the new and unknown. Perhaps imagine the bird cage or box instead as a bubble that can expand and yield to the new and incorporate it easily. This can be an intermediate step towards claiming more of who you are and the freedom that comes with it.
In closing, check yourself regularly to see if you are responding to fear or are claiming your life in the love that you deserve. This process of evolution at its core has a practice of increasing our self-love consciously. Consider doing something each month of 2019 to increase your love of yourself. Honor that in truth you are the source of what you see in your life, and you have immense barely tapped power to create what you want. Dip your toe into the unknown in your life. Know that you are safe as you challenge yourself to be a little more than you were in the last year. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain as you claim more of the love energy that you truly are.
A blessed and exciting 2019 awaits!
