Love and Fear

March 1, 2015

The choice is yours. The choice has always been yours. To live in love or to live in fear.

The first thoughts you have are fearful thoughts. Further contemplation will either exaggerate the fear or reveal the contrasting thought, which is loving. Your awareness of the feelings your thoughts generate guides you to choose which thoughts you support; fear or love. We have been taught to judge, so we judge our thoughts as good or bad, right or wrong. They are neither! It is up to you as to what you want to believe.

Fearful thoughts are generated by the well trained and well supported ego. Loving thoughts are mostly foreign to us. We are not taught how to have loving thoughts, and they are not supported. What is a loving thought? Yes, it is the opposite of fear, but what is it exactly? A loving thought is that which unites, allows, and invites acceptance. A loving thought does not incite resistance, crisis, chaos, or conflict. The ego wants to fight, it wants to separate, and find something wrong. Why is fear so much easier? Because the ego has been ‘wired’ to react first, and it wants to divide and conquer. Everything in our world supports the ego. More, different, and better are everywhere! Striving, not thriving is commonplace. We are not satisfied because everything we hear and read says we aren’t. The world creates fear. How do we turn this around?

A good first step is to choose the loving thought, be it about yourself or others. This is the thought that lacks judgment. It is a more neutral thought. It is the thought that does not feel like it needs to be justified in some way. There is no rhetoric with loving thoughts. Most of all loving thoughts are peaceful. Loving thoughts feel right and good. These thoughts raise your awareness and create contemplation that leads to a higher vibration that draws love to you.

There are all kinds of reasons to live in fear. It is not easy to live in a loving way when struggling. This is when gratitude and appreciation are important to focus upon. You will always find something to be thankful for or appreciate in your life. Taking time each morning to identify those things that are truly important and incite gratitude, will set the tone for your day, your life. This will raise your vibration and draw goodness to you. Choosing this for yourself takes conscious awareness of your thoughts and is ongoing work. Falling into fear is easy as the ego lies in wait for weakness. Practicing love will eventually lead to an expansion of your being that will move you past the ego, and when fear does arise it will feel very foreign to you. With fear now easily identifiable, you will be able to convert it to love quickly and easily. This is the way of the new and peaceful life you desire. With love you can change your world! Practice, and set yourself free. Be well, Be love ♥

Spiritual Evolution

February 22, 2015

Spiritual connection within is expanding to open you to new universal vistas of knowledge, experience, and alignment.

When clarity is achieved through healing and cleansing, there is more that can be accessed to enhance your evolution.  This is not something that you think, but rather something that you feel.  The evolution of your spiritual self does not permeate your consciousness alone, it affects all levels through your chakra system (which are your energy centers) and your etheric being.  Spiritual Evolution is something that you ask for, as it does not happen automatically.  This is a process beyond all others that requires conscious connection to all aspects of your being. Spiritual Evolution is achieved through your ability to absorb and maintain light and is guided by your higher self.

The conscious part of your evolution is achieved by your ability to maintain balance and focus through intention. This is primary to your process as all the dimensions of your being need to be in alignment with your intention. Evolution, primarily spiritual evolution, is guided by your intention and desire. Nothing happens without your permission, as this is a free will universe. Seeking to understand the different dimensions of your being and how they correlate with each other, is where the next stage begins after clearing and healing have taken place.  There will be an expansion of your being when you have asked with clear intention for further enlightenment.

You’re inner, outer, and Higher Self (supra consciousness) are the three dimensions of your physical being. There cannot be congruence without intention and conscious connection.  Finding your center, and setting your intention [to evolve] by maintaining clarity, focus, and balance will further enhance your evolution and connection with all the dimensions of your being. This energy signature (your intention) will attract light to assist you with your request. Once this happens, your frequency and vibration will align with the light, and on a conscious level new information and understanding will flow to you.  In addition, you will be drawn to people, circumstances, and experiences that will emulate your evolutionary process.  At the same time you will attract opportunity, experiences, and knowledge that will enhance your process exponentially. Nothing happens by accident. You are the creator of your expansion, intentionally or not. This is a place of miracles and higher understanding.  If you truly want this for yourself, you shall have it!   Be well, Be love ♥

Thoughts

January 18, 2015
The purest form of love is awareness. Finding your way into awareness is the key to awakening. This is a consciousness beyond all thoughts. This is knowing that nothing else matters except your connection to cosmic consciousness. Your alignment with the connection to your highest self, reveals truth and genuineness in all things. There is a knowing of this connection that resides within your thoughts when you tune into the feeling of the thought. Is the feeling peaceful or resistant? Does the thought incite love or fear? The most important path is the one you walk with an open heart. The heart cannot be open in the presence of fearful thoughts.

Your thoughts carry agendas. The agendas serve the ego. This is the subterfuge of the ego, to keep you in the world it has created, with the opinions it wants, for its sake and survival. This is not the real world. The real world involves acceptance, love, kindness, understanding, openness, tolerance, and compassion. Without agendas for anyone or anything, including yourself.

Alignment with your higher self is the path to awakening beyond the ego. This path lies in the second thought, not the first thought that you have about something. The first thought is the ego response, the second thought is the truth revealing thought. The immediate reaction is that of the ego. The true self, your highest self, reacts slower with more awareness. Acting with the first thought contains fear, acting with the second thought is love. The egos job is to act quickly to dispel the connection with highest self. This is why the ego has connected feeling to the first thought. It is the feeling that spurs action and belief. This causes more first thoughts and keeps you ‘dancing’ to the egos ‘tune’. Who you are up to this point is created from a lifelong succession of first thoughts. When you dismiss the first thought (initial reaction) and allow the second thought to surface, not only will it feel different but it will lead you in a different direction. This does not mean you must ponder on each situation that arises, but to think past the first thought that arises about the person, situation, or event. Truth and love lie within the second thought you have about the situation.

The world as we know it contains multitudes of information all connected to an agenda. It is the agenda you want to see within the information, and make your choices from there. Programming of these agendas appeals to the ego. The ego is the one that believes these agendas. The higher self being slower to react does not buy in to most things. It is wise to the ways of the agenda. It does not believe everything for face value and looks for the agenda first to determine its reaction. Your highest self only responds to truth. If there is no truth within the situation, it will not give credence to it.

Following this path is a detoxification of your thoughts which will lead to new reactions and beliefs within your being. This will establish a higher sense of knowing and believing. It will increase the awareness of your life and those within it. It will wake you up to new conscious awareness and give you a new sense of clarity and vision.

When you connect with your highest self, you will live in truth and authenticity. This genuine way of being in the world will assist others in finding this within themselves as it carries a specific frequency; the frequency and vibration of love. When you come from love it overcomes and dispels the darkness within others, when you are around them. It will draw those of like vibration to you, and may drive others away. Knowing this will assist you in understanding them and why they are reacting in such a way. Be Well, Be Love ♥

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. ♥

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 ♥

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!
