The Second Coming of the Christ Consciousness ∞The 9th Dimensional Arcturian Council

“Greetings. We are the Arcturian Council. We are pleased to connect with all of you.

We have the perspective on this time on planet Earth that is most beneficial to all of you, but we cannot make you take on our perspective. All we can do is share it with you as a gift, and then you will have the option of whether you want to receive the gift that we are giving you.

Our perspective is that you are awakening within you so much of the light that the world needs, and yet you often do not give yourselves credit for the fact that you are doing so much for the rest of humanity. Your consciousness there on Earth is bringing about the great changes that you want to see.

Those of you who are awakened want to experience a better world, and you want that world to be a better world for everyone. Just the fact that you hold that desire within you is a huge service to humanity. The big picture here is that you are breaking down barriers that have existed within each of you. You have been defragmenting yourselves and becoming whole.

That work alone is so significant that if it were all that you did, it would still be enough of a contribution. When you realize that the outside world must reflect what is going on inside of you, and you take note of all of the wonderful work that you have done, it should then be impossible for you all to not acknowledge yourselves. We want you to do just that on a regular basis so that you can take the pressure off of yourselves to do more or to be more than you are right now.

You are there on Earth leading by example, holding space for humanity, and wanting what is best for every single person on the planet. And that common desire that you have for a better life for all unites you as a collective of lightworkers. This is the gift that you are to humanity. This is the second coming of the Christ Consciousness that you are celebrating on your Earth.

We are the Arcturian Council, and we have enjoyed connecting with you.”

Choice As Life

Amora, April 24, 2020

There is always a point in one’s life where new vision is required, and where the “old” vision, what once supported, must be released in order to move forward.

Sometimes it is better to release something that requires a lot of work in alignment, than staying with something, energetically, because one is afraid to let go.

The act of letting go may come forth as a sincere declaration from the heart.  This is not the same as a declaration from the mind which may usurp energies of convenience and desire to control the outcome.

The heart only knows the truth and often will, if given the chance, create the conditions of ascended alignment with one’s higher beingness, the I AM Truth as it is called.  First and foremost, it is important to align with one’s heart.

Ascension Earth 20150430 Tamara Rant: 3 Steps to Inner Peace: Meditation Techniques to Quiet the Mind

TamaraRant-150x150

As I was having lunch with my Mom earlier this afternoon in one of our favorite Chicago hot-spots, I noticed just how everyone around us seemed to be rushing; moving in fast-forward as if no one had enough time in the day to just be in the moment, nonetheless enjoy it.

The restaurant was packed, which it normally is for being so deliciously awesome, so everyone preparing the food was frantically calling orders and running mini-marathons to ensure top service to their customers. And while I am one of those customers that greatly appreciates their hard work, I couldn’t help but notice how it set the energy for the whole place; a sort of “rushed” vibe that was so obvious and apparent in everyone from the guy restocking the plastic forks to the little kid who couldn’t wait to get his ice cream.

It seemed to spread throughout the place, like word of how good their cob salads are, and yet in the midst of all this chaos, a funny thing always seems to happen when my mother and I get together and talk about life. It’s as if the world around us stops and before we know it, we’ve laughed, we may have even shed a tear or two and at least two hours have passed.

How does this always happen with us? It’s quite simple, actually. It has everything to do with our focus; or rather lack thereof. When you surrender your grasp on the need to control the moment, it just flows and webs of emotion are free to crash like the tides.

In true connected, deep conversation with someone you love, expectations and insecurities can fall away like rain, and all you are left with is authentic sharing. A mutual commitment to the enveloping of time; the free passing of each moment without concern of what you feel or think needs to happen in the next one, but rather letting experience simply emerge and unfold as it will.

And the same goes for meditation. When you are willing to surrender to the moment, all things simply come to you. Your search is over…once you stop looking and just be. I find with talking to so many people about meditation that this is perhaps the hardest part for them when just getting started.

It’s the giving yourself that time to sit down and just BE that causes the most resistance. To stop the automation that is constantly running in the brain of what we need to do, where we need to be etc. and instead, for some precious slivers of time, doing nothing but simply being alive. How simple that sounds, yet so difficult for many of us to do.

I’ve come to understand that with meditation there are 3 main steps that go into getting the most benefit out of this practice of quieting and centering one’s mind. Some people believe that you have to light incense, or dim the lights, or put on a recording of chanting Zen Buddhist monks, but these are all simply “ways to the WAY”. Consider them tools to get you there, but they are in no way necessary to meditate.

So, I guess the first point to make is don’t worry so much about whether you’re doing it right or wrong, because there really is no wrong way. To put it simply, just being fully present in the moment (at ANY given time, no matter where you are or what you are doing, sitting or standing, eyes open or closed) IS meditating. Anytime you bring your full conscious awareness to the NOW, you are in a state of meditation.

Now, there are of course various types and techniques of meditation, some used for various purposes and some requiring certain states of consciousness to work on a subconscious level (using binaural beats for instance to help with concentration or curbing an addiction), but overall general meditation can be achieved anytime, anywhere, so before you begin, just know that your mere presence in this practice is what will ultimately provide you the most beneficial experiences.

Step #1: Focused Breath. The quickest way to quiet the subconscious mind is to treat it like a child. Give it something to play with, or in other words, something to focus on. Breath-work is a great tool to get you started with a meditation practice as it not only gets you centered, it gives you a focal point to come back to when your subconscious mind wants to wander and think about your business meeting tomorrow, what you want for dinner, or what often happens in my own subconscious mind, where does light really go when it enters a black hole? :) Learn the 100 breaths technique to get you started!

Step #2: Get Comfortable. If you plan on meditating for at least a few minutes or more and wish to do it privately, then it is most beneficial to find a nice, quiet space where you can sit comfortably. Again, there is no right or wrong way to sit, however lotus position is so popular because it literally has a calming effect on the body. It was adopted to allow the body to be held completely steady for long periods of time and also encourages deep breathing and proper body posture. The main focus here is that you are comfortable because if you are not, then your mind will of course be distracted by your discomfort. So choose to sit in a space and position that allows you to sit relaxed for an extended period of time. Learn how the healthcare industry is catching on to how meditation can reduce pain, blood pressure and stress and even induce new brain cell growth!

Step #3 Let Go. For many people this is the hardest step. The thoughts might continue, then we sit and judge ourselves for the fact we can’t stop thinking. Then we get angry and give up. But the key to developing a good meditation practice is well, to keep practicing! Instead of trying not to think, instead let the thoughts come (don’t judge them which only leads to more thoughts), and when they do, simply acknowledge them and bring your attention back to your breath. Think of it like a game you’re playing with your stubborn child of a subconscious mind. Eventually it will get tired and will go quiet, and then the magic happens. :)

In that inner space of quiet solitude and peace, is where you will find your true connection to your Higher-self (the link to your intuition) as well as Source. It is here you are open to receive guidance about yourself, your life and your path. It is here where fears can be faced with courage and obstacles can be looked at as opportunities. I like to call it my own personal well, where I go to literally refill my soul. Once you relinquish the need to control the process, the process willgift you with clarity, wisdom and most of all, inner peace. Learn how letting go is the key to opening doors to abundance!

Don’t Fall for the Destiny Trap ∞The 9D Arcturian Council, Channeled by Daniel Scranton

“Greetings. We are the Arcturian Council. We are pleased to connect with all of you.

We have been looking at all of the possibilities that exist at this time for humanity in the near future, and what we can see is that you are being very cautious about choosing where you will go next as a collective. You have seen yourselves and others being very cautious in the physical realm, washing your hands and wearing masks. You have been choosing not to touch things, not to go places, and you have been stocking up on supplies that you might need, all in order to be cautious, as you observe the different possibilities in your mind that keep coming up for you.

Now is a time when you must be willing to feel into these possibilities that we see in front of you, and you want to let go of the fear-based scenarios, which include the ones where individuals in positions of power attempt to take your free will away. If you have some issues with authority, they are coming up at this time, and they are coming up to serve you.

If you have been living your life very cautiously, you will want to examine how that has affected the creation of your reality now. And if you have been believing that someone or something has to come and rescue all of humanity, then that is something for you to examine. It’s a good idea to be taking stock at this time of what exactly you have been giving your power away to, especially if you don’t realize that you’ve been doing it.

Now, getting back to the potential timelines that you have in front of you. As you feel into the various future scenarios, do your best to stay out of your minds, and instead, feel into these different vibrational avenues with the idea that you may not be able to conjure up the best possible one with a limited physical mind. Take the energies coming in to support you and to heal you, and know that as you do, you also get closer to your intuitive knowing. You get more sensitive to your impulses, and you have a heightened awareness of that sensitivity that serves you so very well when you allow it to.

You are the sensitive ones, and you need to be leaning in to that gift at this time, because if you don’t, it will be much easier to fall into the trap of the timelines that others are telling you about, as if you have no choice, as if they are set in stone, as if all of humanity is destined to experience the same thing at the same time. You are not. You are there to choose, and we are here to help. Be proud of your sensitivity. It serves you very well, especially during these trying times.

We are the Arcturian Council, and we have enjoyed connecting with you.”

Mira of the Pleiadian High Council. Channelled by Valerie Donner, September 5, 2013. http://www.thegroundcrew.com/channeled_messages.htm

Greetings, I am Mira.

As most of you know I am still serving full time on the Earth Council as the Earth moves closer to her Ascension. There is much at stake these days and there are frayed nerves. The events that are occurring are monumental and we believe it is imperative that tensions not be provoked in the Middle East.

We can tell you that as we survey the pulse of the American people as well as the rest of the world there is a desire for peace. We call forth laying down of arms and a cessation of assaults against the people and life itself. It is truly a time to step up for what the people want, not what those with military might want to invoke upon the populace for their own benefit. People must speak up loudly and begin to re-create the world in which they are choosing to live. The empowerment of the people is what is most important.

I am not advocating any type of uprising or tyranny. I am simply stating that if enough people make their wants known, those who rule with might and armaments will find themselves disarmed. It is time that the people have their word.

There are numerous stressors and tensions within and upon the Earth that we are monitoring closely. We go to places where help is needed and watch over humanity and the Earth. We have the resources to assist with a myriad of things. Our Galactic forces are numerous. We have only the welfare of the Earth and life on the Earth in our hearts.

We suggest you lend your support to us by praying and meditating. Be the new leaders that you are intended to become. Hold in your hearts the energy of Peace and Love. This is partly how you will go about creating Heaven on Earth.

We must instill the importance of you working together as part of the forces of the Legions of Light. You are the ground crew and we count on you. Even if you are personally challenged for one reason or the other, we seek your assistance and your wise counsel that we glean from your consciousness and from working with you in the dream state. We need to know what is in your hearts and in your mind. Trust that what is in our mind is only for the highest universal good.

We have a lot to accomplish together in the next few years. We will stay with you as we begin to communicate more in our own ways and rekindle our old friendships. We love you and admire you for being a part of the ground crew. We will achieve our goals for the Earth’s Ascension as well as for yours.

I am Mira in loving service to the Earth.

Messages of Light 20150502 The Arcturian Group via Marilyn Raffaele: April 29, 2015.

Arcturian-Group-April-26-2015-e1430125231357

Greetings once again Dear Ones, in this time of new beginnings.

We come to bring encouragement and Love to the many of you who are experiencing seeming discord, both within and without. Old ideas are quickly becoming obsolete and dissolving, but the new ones are not yet fully able to manifest (personally and universally) leaving you confused.

It may appear as if the world is functioning as usual, and yet you are finding that much of it no longer resonates with you in the ways you have come to know and expect. This is the confusion which causes you to question yourselves.

Never doubt or believe that you are simply making things up, are over tired, or just plain going crazy as change begin to take place within your awareness. Change signifies a consciousness that is expanding – often away from what is familiar or known.

You are not consciously aware of how much is happening on other levels as you sleep, meditate, or simply go about your day. Human beings are programmed to analyze and mentally figure everything out, but this approach does not work with what is now taking place on deeper levels.

The sense of separation with which mankind has lived, lifetime after lifetime, has manifested a world of much unnecessary suffering for many. The few who recognized the error of this concept have always been harshly silenced by the un-awakened majority, and so the myth lived on.

Thus sincere seekers became used to looking outside of themselves to those deemed more knowledgeable and trained in Truth, but more often than not were, and still are, told that man is tarnished and must work his way back into the good graces of a God made in man’s image and likeness through suffering and great effort.

False teachings have never affected Truth, but through lifetimes did affect your acceptance of Truth. All experiences (many not so pleasant) resulting from this ignorance are important facets of your evolutionary journey and have brought you to where you are now.

There is no need for fear or doubt, Dear Ones, for you are on your way whether you think you are or not. Leave behind those teachings that tell you that you must believe a certain way, or undergo specific ceremonies in order to be “saved” or spiritual. It is time to understand that you are already saved and spiritual and at no time – ever – have you not been.

This is the sacred secret long hidden within each where it was never suspected of being – you have always been an expression of Source. Your real Self has never been – nor could it ever be – separate from the One Omnipresent Divine Consciousness, for that is all there is. Where else would you come from?

Evolution is simply the gradual process of remembering through lifetimes of stepping and falling, stepping and falling. Earth is a powerful and difficult school, but you will graduate very prepared as powerful Beings of Light. All is proceeding according to plan and you are now ready to move beyond the stepping and falling part and come into the Knowing.

Spiritual readiness is always known and directed by the Higher Self, and you are being guided to and through each necessary step of your journey. This knowledge will serve to remove from you the burdens of trying to figure everything out mentally and continuously seeking.

Many metaphysical books, written in the past, laid out definite practices necessary for spiritual growth. If you are drawn to certain practices then that is fine, for many of them were actually based in Truth, but if you are not drawn to them or if they feel “old” to you, then trust this and never think you have failed in some way because of it.

Most of you have evolved beyond needing a lot of outer tools. Many (not all) of the older books were written for beginners who needed specific practices in order to awaken to new levels of understanding and there are still many who equate being psychic with being spiritual.

Mankind’s shift into higher levels of awareness is manifesting outwardly as many new and very evolved teachers. You will recognize them by the energy of their words. Be open – for they may present ideas of Truth that at first seem strange. Many very evolved Beings of Light are now incarnating or choosing to be “walk ins” in order to help the many who are ready to move deeper and higher – beyond what up to now has been known and taught.

There is no need to figure everything out, just know that you are being guided. The “monkey mind” loves to dictate the spiritual journey with suggestions, ideas, and judgement, but remember the human mind can only access what is already out there in world consciousness, unless given more from deeper levels. You have moved beyond the mental stage – love it, thank it for its suggestions, and pay it no attention, instead choosing to listen and be guided from within.

Any unpleasant experiences you may be going through right now are simply old energies (concepts, beliefs, experiences) coming forth to be noticed, interpreted on a higher level, and released. These experiences are signs that you are ready for the deeper Truths that cannot integrate with the old still in place.

Karmic situations needing completion are coming to a head for many. Diseases, irrational fears, and all sorts of issues considered to be problems in the third dimension, are presenting themselves to many very evolved souls now spiritually able and ready to release them. Problems are never a sign of failure for a serious seeker of Truth.

When things seem to fall apart, recognize the experience as an indication of your readiness to look deeper and that you are now evolved enough to do the work. Never see yourselves or others as a failure based on outer appearances, for you may well be witnessing a very evolved soul who has chosen to work out profound levels of old energy in this lifetime.

There are some tempted to deny “problems” when they appear, believing that this is the more spiritual way (problems are not God ordained and therefore do not exist). This often becomes a trap for the serious student because in reality this is the absolute Truth, but the absolute cannot be lived and experienced fully until one has attained that state of consciousness. Know the Truth of the absolute, but live out from your highest attained state of consciousness.

Denial and resistance can solidify problems, for denial and resistance feeds them with energy. Never deny the discords in your life but know that they have no real power other than the power you give them. We do not say that if you have concern over some health issue you must not visit a doctor or that this indicates a backward step, for loving and dedicated help manifests and is available on all levels.

When problems hit;

  1. Drop the picture and know the absolute Truth (God never created this, so it was not made and has no law to support it.)

  2. Go within, asking for guidance and listening to your intuition. Answers may not come in that moment, but will manifest when you least expect and in a way you did not expect. Never request a specific outcome (concept) other than what is the highest and best for all.

  3. Take whatever human footsteps you are guided to take.

These steps help to remove the fear and resistance that gives so many “problems” the power they seem to have.

You are moving into a new paradigm of living, emerging into an awareness of yourselves as powerful Beings – butterflies emerging from lifetimes spent in heavy cocoons of duality and separation. The cocoon must be discarded, no matter how familiar or comfortable it may have become, reflecting change with what you eat, the way you play, your work, and all things in life.

You are experiencing a shift into the higher sense of ordinary things which does not mean you must leave behind everything that is important to you, but it means that you must be willing for some things to assume a new place, evolving into something new or perhaps being left behind.

This way of being becomes automatic as you begin to live attuned always to the within. Do you wish to stay in what is known and familiar no matter how uncomfortable, or do you wish to move on to something new?

Be not afraid, Dear Ones, for the spiritually new will always manifest in higher and better forms. You are not leaving anything real, you are coming to understand and experience these same things on higher levels.

We are the Arcturian Group

Your Evolution ∞The 9th Dimensional Arcturian Council

0

“Greetings. We are the Arcturian Council. We are pleased to connect with all of you.

You will continue to evolve, even after the shift is completed. You are not ever going to stop evolving and becoming, even when you return home to Source. There will be times when it seems as though you have to do a lot more work, and there will be other times when it seems that you are moving happily through your lives without much of anything to spur on your growth and evolution.

No matter where you are, no matter what you are doing, and no matter how much you are experiencing right now, you’re always in a growth cycle. The times when these experiences of growing and evolving hit you the hardest are the times you need the most support. They are the times that call for more support, and you have so much support that you don’t need to ask for it. But you do need to accept the support that is being offered.

You do need to let go of control so that you can let in all of the support and all of the love and compassion that is coming your way from your guides, your angels, and other high frequency beings of light and love. Your growth and evolution are inevitable. They will continue, regardless of what you do or do not do, but how you go about facing the hardest parts of your journey will be in large part determined by how much help you’re willing to accept, how much you’re willing to open yourselves up to receiving.

You are not giving up your power when you ask for help or when you receive it. You are demonstrating to yourselves how powerful you are in your ability to receive. You are demonstrating to yourselves that you are a collective. These guides and other beings, they are all other parts of you, and to draw upon the help and support that they offer is just a wise use of your own resources. Your evolution is a group effort.

We are the Arcturian Council, and we have enjoyed connecting with you.”

Time for Change 20130430 ~ Ten Responses to the Technological Unemployment Problem

0

Ten Responses to the Technological Unemployment Problem

On the internet and in the media there has been growing discussion of technological unemployment. People are increasingly concerned that automation will displace more and more workers—that in fact there might be no turning back at this point. We may be reaching the end of work as we know it.

What happens if vast numbers of people can no longer make money by selling their labor? How should society respond? What follows is a list of possible responses to technological unemployment. This list may not be complete. If I have missed anything, or misrepresented anyone’s views please say so in the comments below. Also these responses are not meant to be mutually exclusive; many of them can overlap with each other quite nicely.

(1) THERE IS NO PROBLEM; TECHNOLOGICAL UNEMPLOYMENT IS A MYTH There are many economists who still maintain that technological unemployment cannot happen, at least not on the large scale described above. The reasoning for this argument is called the luddite fallacy, which explains that although automation does displace workers, it simultaneously leads to lower prices. These lower prices in turn stimulate consumer demand and provide the basis for new industries, which in turn hire more workers. The luddite fallacy has more or less held true for two hundred years. The question is will it continue to hold true in the face of the computer revolution and accelerating technological progress? How can we be sure new jobs will arrive fast enough to offset the jobs lost?

(2) UNCONDITIONAL BASIC INCOME

This is a fairly straightforward solution. Since growing numbers of people won’t be able to earn money from their labor, it might make sense to just give everyone a guaranteed income whether or not they work. This would allow the market economy as we know it to continue, since putting money in people’s hands would prop up the cycle of consumer spending. Often this idea is characterized as socialist, and in some senses it is, but this characterization overlooks that the goal of a UBI is actually to save market capitalism. Moreover, with a guaranteed basic income many other socialist programs like social security, unemployment, and food stamps could be dismantled and replaced with this far more streamlined system. An obvious question is, where does the money come from? A variety of ideas have been suggested; Marshall Brain details several possibilities in his essay Robotic Freedom.

(3) OPT OUT OF CAPITALISM AND TAKE ADVANTAGE OF DECENTRALIZED TECHNOLOGIES This is a more individual approach that does not rely on government intervention. By taking advantage of new decentralized technologies and living as cheaply as possible, people might be able to increasingly just opt out of capitalism and consumerism entirely. This approach is advocated by Federico Pistono in his book Robots Will Steal Your Job But That’s Okay and could be facilitated by forward thinking engineering projects such as Open Source Ecology, as well as upcoming advances in technologies like solar panels and 3D printers.

(4) RESOURCE BASED ECONOMY (OR AUTOMATION SOCIALISM?)

This is an alternate economic system advocated by The Venus Project “in which all goods and services are available without the use of money, credits, barter or any other system of debt or servitude. All resources become the common heritage of all of the inhabitants, not just a select few.” This arrangement is made possible by aggressive use of advanced technologies to create an abundance of resources and thereby negate the need for any sort of rationing. Although Jacques Fresco, the founder of the Venus Project, claims his system is distinct from socialism, it appears to me to be fairly consistent with an extreme version of what has been called “automation socialism.” I believe the socialist comparison is apt since RBE implies the end of both private property and wealth concentration. In any event, this system sounds idyllic in principle but naturally raises the question “How could we get from here to there?”

(5) WEALTH REDISTRIBUTION ACCORDING TO AN INCENTIVE SYSTEM

This approach is advocated by Martin Ford in his book The Lights in the Tunnel.  His approach overlaps heavily with the unconditional basic income idea in that his goal is the same: put money directly in people’s hands so they can spend it and keep the market economy going. The main difference is that instead of making the income unconditional, Ford advocates doling out money according to an incentive scheme that encourages behavior society desires. Among the hypothetical examples Ford mentions is paying people to read books.

(6) WORK TOGETHER WITH THE MACHINES

In their book Race Against the Machine, Andrew McAfee and Erik Brynjolfsson suggest that we should try racing with machines. In addition, seminal futurist Ray Kurzweil has repeatedly expressed his view that we are destined to “merge with machines.” How might this resolve the technological unemployment problem? Well, technological unemployment ultimately stems from the fact that automation advances much faster than people can learn new skills. So if we can find a way to directly upgrade human minds—such as through the use of brain-computer interfaces—then workers would be able to keep pace with technological change and readily adapt to new jobs and industries as quickly as they crop up. Moreover, super intelligent humans might develop new desires which would in turn stimulate new industries. Alternately humans might become enlightened and decide they no longer need a market economy. Either way the problem would be solved.

(7) SMALL SCALE POLICY ADJUSTMENTS DESIGNED TO ENCOURAGE EDUCATION AND FOSTER INNOVATION

A lot of more traditional pundits admit there is a potential problem with technological unemployment (or at least technological inequality) but seem uninterested in any of the more drastic solutions mentioned above. Instead they push for a series of common sense policy fixes, such as fixing education to better prepare people for STEM fields or reforming the patent system to mitigate drags on innovation. These policy tweaks are designed to make the economy function incrementally better in this new technological era.

(8) GET THROUGH THIS TRANSITIONAL PERIOD AS FAST AS POSSIBLE One line of reasoning argues that technological unemployment can only ever be a temporary problem, since the day is approaching when we will literally print out all of our food and other necessities. Thus the problem only arises in the awkward transitional period: after we’ve automated large numbers of jobs, but before technology has lowered the cost of living to near zero. Therefore we should try to accelerate technological progress by whatever means necessary so that we can make the painful transition as short as possible—much like tearing off a bandaid.

(9) OPTIMISTIC LIBERTARIAN

This position argues that as long as government stays out of the way the transition will be relatively smooth and painless. Yes, there will be less jobs available, and certainly people’s incomes will suffer, but technology will simultaneously bring down the cost of living at a fast enough rate that people will survive just fine without the need for government invention or economic restructuring.

(10) ISSUES LIKE TECHNOLOGICAL UNEMPLOYMENT ARE DWARFED BY EXISTENTIAL RISK

It’s possible a technological unemployment crisis would simply be a pitstop on the way to a much more dangerous crisis involving artificial general intelligence.  Once AGI arrives we will have much bigger issues to contend with, such as will the human race survive being displaced as the most intelligent beings on planet Earth? So while technological unemployment might be worth worrying about at the margins, really the bulk of our energy ought to be devoted to this more substantial threat on the horizon. This position is advocated by the Machine Intelligence Research Institute and others.

Reminder 🌒eclipse cycle live event happening today

0
Hiii there! ~ Tonight at 11:18 pm pacific time, the a once-in-a-few-centuries partial lunar eclipse in the sky begins! To prepare for these energies our Eclipse Cycle Opening Event is happening today at 1:00 pm pacific time. This event is part of a special program that also includes an event after the Solar Eclipse on Dec. 4 and a guided series of inner sessions for Creating with the Infinite, in between. Tonight’s eclipse is a partial lunar eclipse and full moon. Full moons are always about endings. Most of us tend to avoid or dislike endings! But full moons and particularly a full moon with an Eclipse is a potent time to complete things in our lives. What is it time to end, that you’ve avoided ending, paying attention to, or even looking at? That question can serve us right now. And especially if we dare to put it into the context of the collective evolution of humanity. Think about your lineage, your ancestors, the habits, beliefs, issues that you’ve learned through these connections and through your life experiences, that are based on beliefs, ideas and patterns rooted in separation. Beliefs in lack. Ideas of unworthiness. Patterns of denying yourself true authentic expression and being who you really are. What could you stop doing, supported by your own Divine Self and the Infinite, at this time, that would allow you to be more true, see yourself with more self-compassion and generosity, and express yourself more freely? I encourage you to take some time over the next two days to consider these questions and to ask for whatever support or help you feel you need, to be courageous enough to END what’s limiting your divine true expression. And if you’d like the fun and support of a co-creative experience for working with these energies and more, please consider joining us for the Live Event today and the Creating with the Infinite program. (Note — the event and everything in this program can be done on your own preferred time line. The event is recorded and the materials delivered via email. So no matter where you live or what your schedule is like right now, you can participate.) Click here to learn more.  

Sending you love and blessings! Ailia

You Are Multi-Dimensional Beings ∞The 9D Arcturian Council, Channeled by Daniel Scranton

“Greetings. We are the Arcturian Council. We are pleased to connect with all of you. We have awakened within humanity a sense of who you are as ninth-dimensional beings, and we have done this through the sending of a particular frequency through these transmissions. You are capable of feeling the different dimensions inside of you. Dimensions are not places that you go. They are not different realities. You have terms for parallel universes, alternate realities, different timelines. Dimensions are not any of those things. You are multi-dimensional. You are multi-faceted. You are more than just your name, birthdate, social security number, body, income, political affiliation, and so on. You’re so much more than any of those things, and yet, when you get stuck in your third dimensional way of knowing yourself, all of those things become very important to you, as do other aspects of who you are. We don’t want to diminish the hardships faced by those who have a particular gender, skin color, ethnicity, or religious background, and so, we are not going to do that. But we will say that it is our aim to get you to see yourselves, and identify with, so much more than how others identify you. Just because someone else looks at you and thinks about who you are based on very superficial, exterior aspects of you, doesn’t mean that you have to identify with any of that. You don’t have to limit yourselves. You don’t have to believe any of what someone else says about you, and if you don’t, when someone else is saying something very limiting about who you are, then you know you have evolved beyond that identification, that need to know yourself as something other than unconditional love. And so, if you want to go beyond third-dimensional definitions, the path is to go within. If you want to feel your non-physical nature, you must go within…or die. But we are not recommending that. We recommend that you reach within yourself for the fifth dimension, the sixth, the seventh. We want you to feel your true nature as Source Energy Beings of unconditional love, and to do that, it is necessary to go beyond the ways that you have of traditionally identifying yourselves. We are here to invite you to a much bigger party, a party that is much more inclusive. And we want you to know that you have been all that you see outside of you in other lifetimes. So which ‘you’ is most important? The ‘you’ that you are now, the ‘you’ that you have been, or the ‘you’ that you are becoming. Once you become fifth dimensional, you will be able to try on so many different selves, and we are excited to witness you being exactly who you want to be in every moment. Start now, and start by reaching within yourselves for more than you can imagine. It’s all about feeling who you really are. Feel it first, and then be it whenever you desire. We are the Arcturian Council, and we have enjoyed connecting with you.”
