LOOKING BACK ~ MOVING FORWARD

As the year comes to a close you may find yourself looking back at a lifetime of growth and development that has brought you to this point of attainment and awareness. This may feel different from years past as we have crossed the ending of one era and are now at the beginning of the next!
Looking back at your life and the realization of changes and opportunities that have formed who you have become will shed light on where you are today. The letting go of the past will open you to the possibility of the future being more authentic and feeling more empowered, rather than needy and weak. This threshold of empowerment will lead you to the awakening of your being with the energy of the past falling away. This choice to expand upon the goodness of your authentic self will give you a clarity of feeling the new beginning of this year.
Appending areas of your life where healing has occurred will impart your strength of character and open you to a new awareness within your heart to the connection of all things. This gives you the energetic stamina to continue the healing process and creates the strength within your heart to do, think, and feel the energetic quality of the new frequency of being that connects you with the flow of your life.
As this cleansing continues and your frequency of being increases the reaction from the world around you answers the call to rise and feel the love you are emitting. This clarity of being is felt by all around you and it feels as peace within.
Letting go of anything tied to the past life you are releasing will instantly change your energetic field. This systemic release of anything or anyone that no longer serves who you are will create a new world of opportunity and increase, meant to join you with those in the new age of awareness and connection. This is a beginning of an era meant for those of pure intention and consciousness.
With the old of your being falling away, you will feel the sparks of new beginnings within. With the layers of the past rescinding, the ego will recapitulate within attempting to hold its control over your mind. This will feel less intimidating as you continue releasing your past life, as the ego is very invested in what you have become. The ego will not know where it fits in the new paradigm of your life, so it will continue to attempt to draw you back to the past life you are leaving behind. The more resilient you become to the temptation of the ego and your past, the more strength and optimism you will gain. Refining your will and using affirmations beginning with ‘I AM’ will assist you with pressing forward to the new frequency of being you have laid out before you. Reminding yourself that the past is not who you truly are, but who you had become [until now], will assist with the release and strengthen your willingness to continue forward.
Bringing your conscious awareness into the present, and knowing this is where you exist right now, will open your life to new intention and dimensional thinking that will empower you to change your life. All is well in your world and you are the one that will make it so. Be Well, Be Love

Faith

December 29, 2014

The Season of Faith is upon you and knowing where faith comes from is important.

Faith is born from the ability to believe in something or someone, regardless of proof.  Faith coincides with trust, in that having faith means a trust is in place upon the person, concept, or idea to be what it is professed to be. This is not an easy thing, as this faith and trust must also reside for one’s self. These ideals can be present when a feeling of confidence lies within. Knowing the source of the object you have faith in is important and must be thoroughly believable. We have all experienced a letdown when faith was shattered, which means trust was not in place. Faith is also important to ones beliefs creating energetic responses that endorse your feelings. Whatever or whomever you believe in will sanctify your faith.

Having faith in yourself and believing in your process is imperative to the evolution of your being. Only then can you trust yourself to be a force for good in the world. We are all here to grow and maximize our potential for the evolution of our being. Having faith and believing in ourselves is a major step on our spiritual expansion and conscious awareness of being. Opening to the belief that all you think, say, and do has a purpose and will serve the highest good within, may find you more aware of your actions. This motivates life purpose and is the answer to the question ‘what is my life purpose’.

Faith in yourself creates a ripple effect as it animates your actions and frequency to the world. This is the unspoken part of your presence. This lasting impression of your way in the world draws matching frequencial expressions to you. It rarefies your being to a higher sense of clarity and vibration. These are the things that matter more than what we feel is needed in our lives. There is no greater sense of love than faith, trust, and belief in one’s self-expression in the world. Finding that level of awareness within cannot happen without clarity of thought and faith in one’s self. The world is made of distractions to keep you from discovering this truth. Once you decide to live your life with purpose and faith in yourself, you will find peace and a depth of love that emanates from you and to you. This frequency of being will be realized as grace to those in your life that need it most. Have faith in yourself and be on purpose with your presence.

The Shift

There was a major influx of energy last week that was initiated to purge all that is impermanent within your being.  You may have experienced thoughts, beliefs, or feelings (that are not part of your true and authentic being) that surfaced for purging and healing. This was explained in earlier messages; that the time has come for this part of your awakening to be completed! 

The reverence for all things including Mother Earth, is the next step in living from the heart. Once that is accomplished it does not mean that all growth will cease. It means that the way will be made clearer for your soul to expand and your heart to play a major part in that.

The evolution of your being will always require effort on your part. The struggle (resistance) that you have had to deal with will diminish with the healing and release of things internal that do not belong to you (programming).  In addition, there is another part of your internal issues have been created around the strife that you have been put through in dealing with the economic structures as they currently exist. These will shift, and you must be ready for this by doing your part!


Shifting is bridging from the old to the new. This is can be a gentle process that requires the willingness to shift that which must, for evolution to continue.  Allowing this change to happen within yourself and in others, is a necessary step toward growth and activation of abundance consciousness. You cannot experience and integrate something new when you are energetically stuck in old feelings, thoughts, and habits!


Opening to the changes that you are resisting within yourself will shift things for you, and allow the new frequencies of love, abundance, and prosperity to flow. This will create new paths of growth to come into your life to elevate your consciousness. This will then open new dimensional attributes within to bring new information and frequencial alignment to your life. There is a saying, ‘from within, so without’. Understanding this saying is the key to your awakening. There can be no change without this shift in consciousness. When you stop any resistance you might have and listen to your heart, you will find the way out of the quagmire of your life! There is a new consciousness on the other side of resistance; one of deliverance and expansion. This is the truest sense of thriving….. from within, and without.

Your Energetic Resonance

An elevated spiritual mindset is required during this time to open to the evolution of your being. There is much to be thankful for, and this creates an energetic expression of love!
It is important to have enough clarity of being to be able to express gratitude, appreciation, compassion, humility, and understanding. These virtues have an energetic expression that vibrates from your being. If you practice these virtues on a regular basis you will find more balance in your life as they will become the structure of your being.
You are an energetic being living within and energetic universe. There is an energy to everything and everyone that you attract to yourself, depending on the energetic frequency you are emitting, is drawn to you based from your vibration. The clarity of your being and the refinement of your energetic frequency creates your world. Change your frequency, and you change your life!
Love is a combination of these virtues sent from the heart to uplift and create beauty all around you. We are in the midst of the spiritual evolution of our beings, and it is essential to become consciously aware of this fact. The heart/mind connection is the most powerful of all. Becoming a force of good in the world will assist others in the evolution of their being through the light you emit. Maintaining this frequency attainment is the challenge, and this must be done consciously and sometimes with great effort!
Focusing on your inner state of being and questioning your intentions are key to your heart/mind connection. Choosing to step into this powerful state of being can be life changing, and anything or anyone that does not resonate with this frequencial alignment will fall away. There are some that find this vibration of light something they want to take from someone else rather than do the work to have it for themselves. Allowing this interaction is very exhausting, and not serving for their highest good. Consciously acknowledging this is key to letting them go. Allowing them to be who they are, and assisting them with finding this state of being for themselves, is you loving them.
Keeping your thoughts connected to the key virtues of forgiveness, understanding, patience, compassion, gratitude, appreciation, and humility will generate goodness in you and others. It is the spiritual resonance of the now!

The path of forgiveness

How do I forgive………..truly forgive?

Forgiveness is a path and a process. To truly forgive, one has to open themselves to all possibility and non-judgment. One cannot forgive while in judgment of another, or one’s self. Judgment stands between you and forgiveness. You are programmed to judge. When you judge someone you cut off all possibility for forgiveness. Judgment comes from the ego. Ego attachment is a powerful thing, and one cannot decompress the programming while the ego is running things. So, forgiveness is connected to all that you believe. The ego, as we have discussed before, doesn’t like peace. The ego thrives on crisis, chaos, and conflict. This keeps you distracted and keeps you from conscious awareness and love. Becoming aware of your thoughts is a first step to questioning yourself and your beliefs. When you have a judgmental thought ask where the thought comes from. How does the thought feel? Does this thought bring up other thoughts? Allow your thoughts to unfold back to their origination. Experience the feelings these thoughts generate. What do they feel like? At this point, you might have lost the original thought of judgment, and are into the place where the thought truly comes from. This is the place where healing begins.

Most of your beliefs are about yourself, as this is what you use for perception and comparison for judgmental thinking. This is a place of fear within your being. This is the seat of the ego. This is where all thoughts, feelings, judgments, and opinions come from. Why do you feel threatened? What is the basis of your fear? What if you didn’t believe what you are thinking? What if you believed the opposite, or just decided that this thought was not true for you at all? What would change? How would a new thought feel? Where did the original thought come from and who does it serve? Would there be utter chaos if you believed something different? How would that affect your life? At this point, notice how these questions, and the different thoughts they generate, feel within your heart. Your heart is the seat of your truth.

Thoughts are frequency. When you think certain thoughts, they generate a vibration that draws experience to you. The universe is interactive. You are the creator of your life. Whatever you think draws that experience to you, as you are creating by thinking. Your life emulates your thoughts. Your thoughts are generated by your beliefs. If you want to change your thoughts you must change your beliefs. Finding the answers about your beliefs lies within your programming. If your life is not working, it is because you believe something that is not true for you. This has nothing to do with religion or politics. It has to do with your inner relationship to your life, and those within it who have programmed you to believe what they thought was true for them. Most programming stems from lack. This sets up striving. Striving is unreachable. Striving makes you ignore the truth. Truth surfaces when you allow yourself to just be without believing anything your ego is telling you. You can distinguish the ego, as it comes in as thoughts that attack, judge, and create fear. These thoughts almost sound like a different person ‘selling’ you on its ‘product’, which is nothing more than its beliefs. It poses itself as defending you from an enemy. Do you see how this elaborate scheme is hooked into your being? You deserve the truth. The truth is that you are a loving and deserving being of light, and nothing but that truly matters. It doesn’t need to be complicated. If you were to stop enforcing someone else’s agenda, you could change your life. Most of what you believe is simply not true. If you were to change your beliefs, your thoughts would align with the truth, and forgiveness would flow. All would then be as it should be. When you allow yourself to find the truth it will set you free!

Whatever you believe, you can concieve

The mind is your connection between the world and your inner being. Thoughts are what is produced by this interaction creating feelings, and those feelings are your connection to the Universe. This is the energy of your being and your place in the world.
Your mind does not rest. It thinks thoughts all the time. Being aware of your thoughts creates conscious awareness which is where you want to be. When you are consciously aware you can change your world. This level of consciousness can be transforming as it gives you the awareness of what is going on within your being through feelings. When you allow yourself to think and feel consciously, you can become aware of things that no longer exist within your life and reconcile the misdeeds of the past. When you give yourself permission to heal through conscious awareness, asking the heart to assist will be instantaneous. You can let the feelings this brings up pass through you, then release it out to the ether with trust. Some thoughts may want to linger, and you can focus them on the feeling you have within your heart for cleansing.
Feelings energize thoughts and give them the ‘fuel’ they need to manifest. Thoughts with no feeling behind them are not powerful; they are random and without meaning. Using conscious awareness with thoughts and feelings connects to the heart creating emotion, and this is very powerful. This magnetizes whatever you’re focusing upon to be drawn to you. These are the steps for creation. Creation has three steps: thought, emotion, belief. When there is intention behind creation, the thought is carried forward and made manifest.
Belief is a part of you that links to your programming. Belief connects to value and worth, for what you believe you can conceive. If you have not done the healing work to clear out the fear and misconceptions that lie within, it will be difficult to believe. You are a perfect being that has been programmed by life to believe that things happen to you because you are not worthy. Worthiness is a tool the ego uses to control you, and at every turn the world will justify your beliefs. Believing that you were born as a perfect being into this life, to learn through adversity and acquire the skills and intelligence your soul needs for expansion and evolution, is the truth. It really is that simple. And if you lived your life simply knowing that truth, you could not be controlled. Believing that you are a perfect being that has been programmed, and having the desire to detox that belief, will begin a chain reaction of purging the mistruths within. Thoughts will begin to come into your awareness that will show you what you currently believe about yourself. This will give you the opportunity to change your beliefs about yourself, and heal the deepest parts of your inner being. The chain reaction will then begin, and your thoughts will change to truth, and align with your true intentions. This is the process of becoming authentic and being a force of good in the world. This conscious connection reverberates as the emotion of love. Love for yourself, the process, and the world.
When you join your thoughts with the emotion of love, and believe that you are a loving being and deserving of all good things, you will draw to yourself like minds and begin to change the world!
Be Well, Be Love

Love

What is love? The word itself invokes a feeling. Where does love come from? Is it generated from the mind or the heart? Does love exist and we tap into it at times or is it created? Are we in love all the time or does it come and go? Tell us about love……………..
Love is multifaceted in human terms but real love is constant. Love exists all around you and within you, however you need to tap into it. Love is pure and unchanging. Love is not generated; it is realized. Love is your authentic self and your natural state of being. Love is neutral; it is not emotional nor does it come and go. Understanding what love really is comes from deep within your being. It is all encompassing and you can stay within it with conscious awareness and intention.
Love consists of acceptance and allowing all to be as it is without the need or urge to change anything or anyone. Love is a state of being. Love is natural. Anything outside of unconditional acceptance and appreciation is not love. Love does not look outside of itself for approval, nor does it desire love back. Love generates love. This does not mean that emotional love is not love. It is a facet of human love. Pure love is everlasting. If you love someone without conditions of any kind, that is pure love. If you love someone only when they ‘love you back’ that is emotional love. Emotional love does not exist in the higher states of being. Emotional love is tied to the emotional body which is a part of your human state of being. If you feel unconditional love, it adds vibration to love and is felt by those in tuned to the same feeling of love. It enhances love and illuminates your being. There is no greater state of being than love. When you are in that state of being, you lift up all around you! You raise the vibration of all beings in your presence. You can give no greater gift than to be love.

Allow, accept, enlighten, and unite all in your world and your world will thrive and flow.

Acceptance

October 26, 2014

The healing continues with discovering pain [misunderstanding] within and turning it to understanding and then acceptance.

Once the mind connects with the heart there is a ‘spark’ of understanding that opens you to the healing process. The question is then asked

“do you want to heal your pain (misunderstandings)”? You are always giving yourself the choice to heal or not.

With some, there is a lot of personal identity that is wrapped up in their pain. Healing [understanding] will change their identity causing new aspects of their genuine self to awaken. It is the mind/heart connection that begins the process of transformative healing.

If you so choose to heal, it is at the moment of acceptance that the mind/heart connection is kicked into gear. This action draws to you the energy, grace and situations (people, ideas, and events) to assist you with healing and transforming your pain to ‘light’ [understanding] and acceptance. During the healing process the challenge you may face is keeping the mind/heart connection, for it is the intent of healing that must be upheld. If your intent remains solid, the healing will progress. This may not be as easy as it sounds, because many personal beliefs, people, and paradigms may be connected to your pain [misunderstanding].

As each aspect of healing surfaces, you will be given the chance to see things as they truly are [clarity] and a choice to heal that faucet of your pain. This intent to heal is an ongoing process, and might possibly create major changes in your life. You will find the process to be about allowing and acceptance of all that has happened and finding the understanding that it is about evolving out of the ‘fire’ of your life into the stream of higher states of being.

We are all here to evolve at our own pace within the atmosphere of free will. This is the power of being that we all possess as we are all powerful beings having a human experience! The path you take is up to you. Do you choose to play the victim or be the evolutionary being you are? Unite yourself within which will eradicate the power of the ego and give yourself permission to be who you really are; One that makes a difference instead of creating indifference. It always has been and always will be about you and what you do with the choices you are given. Be well, be love

Forgiveness & Patience ~ part 2

 

October 20, 2014

Sophia, I have been working very hard on forgiveness, for without it I feel I cannot evolve. Whenever I think that I have managed true forgiveness, something comes up to show me that I may have not completely forgiven. What is the work that needs to be done once the intention to forgive is in place?

Dearest One, forgiveness is a process and as such cannot be done in one ‘sitting’. Knowing that there are several layers on the path to forgiveness and patience with your process, is key.

Forgiveness is intertwined with time, others, and yourself. When one feels a need to forgive a deep injury, the past must be brought up which is the timeline associated with the situation. This incites the chain reaction of being pulled out of the now (where you have done some work on this issue), and into the hurtful situation as it happened. If you have done any work around forgiveness of the situation, recreating it should feel different, and another facet of the situation should be apparent. This would be the next layer to work with in your process.

It is easy to get ‘stuck’ in forgiving someone for a violation you feel is unforgivable to you. This then requires that you go deeper into where the belief of the violation comes from. Is there a programming issue at work? Another words, were you programmed to believe something that felt violated? If so, is this your belief or someone else’s that you acquired and were taught to make your own? If this feels right, it would be wise to consider the belief system you have around the issue. Sometimes it is easy to tell when the belief may come from another source by looking at how resistant you are to the defense of your beliefs. When one does not want to consider change, growth and evolution is stopped.

Sophia, I can see how forgiveness can involve more effort than just ‘talking’ yourself into it. I know personally that in the past I have made the decision to forgive through analyzing, which did not work.

You are correct! Forgiveness is not of the mind (ego). It is of the heart. This is why most cannot complete the process. Deep forgiveness delves underneath the ‘chain of pain’ within the heart. Each event, person, or situation is interlinked with one variable; and that is you. In some situations forgiveness of yourself for not being ‘loveable’ or ‘good enough’ is enough to heal. This could very well be the only act of forgiveness that may truly matter!

I understand that forgiving ourselves is very important, for without that we have not stopped the chain reaction of creating situations that require forgiveness. What about a true violation such as rape or murder?

Yes, this is the highest form of forgiveness and the most difficult. This requires you to ‘see’ with a higher mind/heart connection. This is a deep injury that has many facets to it, and in some cases cannot be undone due to the level of guilt intertwined within the injury. Guilt is the highest form of punishment that the ego generates to keep you ‘in line’. Guilt is the ‘hold card’ for the ego that can undermine anything in your life. In the case of an ‘unforgiveable’ situation, the first step must be the willingness to let go, forgive, and heal the pain that is caused by the situation. Pain is addicting, for it gives some ones a reason to be weak and feel victimized. Healing and forgiving lifts you out of the process of victimization, and allows you to see the bigger picture that involves all that we have discussed. Remembering that you are responsible only for yourself and your actions can help you see the event from a ‘third party’ viewpoint. You must be willing to step outside of the pain of the situation to see the larger picture and the part each one had within it. Only then can you find a speck of understanding within the event. Knowing that you cannot change anything that has happened helps to pull you out of the fog of the pain. Loss is a part of your evolution. Being able to understand this clarifies and refines your being. It lifts you to a higher place of understanding and love, for this is what your higher instinct knows you are working towards. You cannot have higher evolution of your being with lower level unresolved pain and guilt. This is your path to peace, joy, bliss and love for yourself and others.

Thank you, Sophia!

Judgment/Non-judgment

October 12, 2014

Dearest Ones, open your heart to the energy you have been experiencing and know that this is a frequencial alignment for your evolutionary expansion. It is all about clearing yourself of old energy and ego attachments. Everywhere you turn there is a ‘mirror’ for you to see yourself as you truly are. This is a gift from spirit, and a way to perceive yourself from the outside looking in. Do you like what you see? Paradigms are changing, and this is how it has to be done…..individually…from within.

As these energetic shifts are happening, it is part and parcel of a Divine plan to create spiritual evolution which takes you away from ego thinking, feeling, and living. The trap of the ego keeps you in judgment of yourselves and others. It is a good first step, to become consciously aware of your judgments. It is so engrained in us [to judge] that you judge without knowing that is what you are doing!

Some of your judgments come from defending yourselves by judging others back. That is, judging someone that has judged you. Do you see how this can keep you so occupied? What if you allowed the other person to be what and who they are without judging them? Does your judgment of them actually change anything? Does it make you feel better? Let’s look at where judgment comes from……

First, it does not come from you……the authentic and genuine you…..it comes from your ‘program’. This is a program everyone has. It is instilled by those that nurtured you first, which are the ones that gained your trust without earning it. These are the ones you turned to for approval, love, and acceptance. You believed everything they told you, including how to judge others including yourself. How can we not think then, that judging is not ok? Everywhere we turn there is a system set up for judging and if you don’t judge, you are not ‘normal’. Judging is not from the heart, it is from the ego, and it feeds upon itself.

You are hardest on yourselves as you are taught to police yourselves and others along the way. You were not taught to allow others to be who they are and love them anyway. You may be of the belief that you know ‘best’ and can help others by changing them to something better. Can you see how this can occupy most of your existence?

A big part of non-judgment is trust. Trusting that all will be ok without your judgments. Trying to change the outside world is not going to make you feel better. It is not possible anyway. You cannot change anyone or anything because the true change that you are seeking must come from within. That is where you can effectuate the transformation to who you really are. Accepting and allowing life to evolve without your judgments is a challenge and must be done consciously. If you have someone or something in your life that is not what you want, instead of judging them, look at what it is inside of you that doesn’t like what is happening and why. You might find that the very thing that bothers you has nothing to do with the other person and is something within that needs shifting, cleansing or healing.

Allowing yourselves to trust and love is one of the most difficult things you can do. With most of you, trust was broken early in our lives and we became leery of ever trusting again. Judgments seems to keep you feeling ‘safe’ because it keeps a wall between you and the other person. A wall is easy to build because in most cases it immobilizes love. Your judgments then are the bricks that add to the wall, strengthening it along the way. If you didn’t believe your judgments it would not be such a problem. But then, why have them if you don’t or won’t believe them?

When you can drop your judgments of others, and look within to the reason you are judging and work on that, then there is hope for change. Dropping your judgments will give you power within by transforming you into who you really are which is a powerful, spiritual being of light and love. This path, should you choose it, can lead you to living a peaceful and joyful life lifting others up and helping them along the way. This is the way of life that leads to living your bliss. Be well, be love
