MATTHEW.......NOVEMBER 19

1. This is Matthew to extend loving greetings from all souls at this station and to share with you our observations. In this moment “anticipatory” may be the best word to describe the collective feelings of enlightened souls—not exclusively pertaining to an announcement of our universal family’s presence, but that is where a great deal of anticipation energy is being directed. Some of you are waiting calmly, yet with excited certainty; others who feel excitement also have a large measure of “get this show on the road” impatience; and in some of you the energy of eagerness is overshadowed by “show me” doubtfulness. Then there are the majority of peoples, those who have no idea whatsoever that official recognition of other civilizations is imminent. 2. Hatonn has agreed to speak about what is happening behind the scenes pertaining to the public announcement, and we turn over this forum to him. 3. HATONN: Thank you, Matthew, my friend. As an intergalactic fleet commander and director of multidimensional communication, I am knowledgeable about preparations for a globally televised program that will present evidence of extraterrestrial civilizations. 4. Official recognition can’t be further delayed because much has to be accomplished during this phase of universal activity. It’s essential to repair the severe damage that has been done to Earth so she can regain her health and restore well being to her inhabitants, and there’s no time to waste. We’re here by Earth’s request and God’s authorization because we have the capacity and desire to help you, but your representatives are responsible for making decisions because this is your world. 5. The program announcing our presence is a complex undertaking. The numbers of folks who are expecting us and will greet us wholeheartedly are very few, and the program is being designed for the multitudes. It has to be presented without creating fear or undue backlash. There’s formidable opposition to any recognition of our very existence, and the security of all persons involved in the program is a foremost consideration. When I say “security,” I also mean the emotional security of all witnesses and other participants and their families, not only their physical safety—we have that well in hand. 6. The program can’t be just film clips of spacecraft sightings. In some areas these are so numerous that it’s ho-hum, they’re back. There has to be solid evidence about our presence and that’s where personal accounts come in. Testifying before a panel that pledges witnesses to secrecy is quite different from letting the world know their identities, and the same goes for the people who have been working with us or at least know why we are here. Some have been blackballed in their professions or declared delusional or crazy. In some cases families have been threatened and individuals killed by factions that don’t want you to know we exist, especially not right here with you. Those in charge of the program want everyone who’s willing to speak about personal experiences to feel emotionally secure doing it. 7. This is an international action and it’s important that there is agreement among the governments involved. Major decisions have been made, but some details are still being discussed. Some of your representatives favor keeping the initial program brief and releasing information in increments so people won’t feel overwhelmed. They propose a brief statement that many spacecraft seen during the past several years are from other civilizations, there’s no reason to think any harm is intended, and more information will follow as it’s compiled. Others want the program to answer all logical questions and some of our representatives tell how they’ve been to helping the planet through what you call the shift or cleansing. Some think it would be frightening to see us as we appear in our native lands—not all of us look like you. Others say it’s necessary to show ourselves as we are to prove that we aren’t from your civilization. Some think including live coverage of a mother ship decloaking is a good idea, others think it could be more threatening than reassuring. 8. What kinds of information to present on the program and how much can be covered without overload is being debated. Would it be helpful or overkill to explain that Earth is moving out of her regular orbit by intention and needs our help off and on the planet? Would that involve explaining that Earth is a soul? How much can be said about our technologies without alarming folks about how we might use it? Would it be foolish or comforting to say that our presence has prevented other civilizations from trying to invade Earth? To what extent should the cover-up be disclosed? What about admitting that your governments refused our offers of technology in exchange for ending weaponry development and wars that could annihilate you all? How would it affect your population to know that both dark and light beings from other civilizations have been living among you and influencing your way of life? Should the program include personal accounts of both positive and negative abduction experiences? What to say about the “little grays” that have been living for many years in underground cities? What mixture of scientific, political and religious spokespersons should be in the program? 9. There are differing opinions about when to air it. The United States government, once the most vocal in denying our existence, now favors the most extensive disclosure with maximum speed. A few of your representatives want more polls and strategic interviews to determine how much information your world is ready for. Some in both camps want every national leader to be personally told what will be in the program prior to show time and others think sending each one the program outline is enough diplomatic courtesy. 10. This vital decision-making process that started off slowly a year ago has reached the point that within a couple of months at the outside, this “Earth-awakening” program will be on the air. The movers and shakers with integrity, wisdom and spiritual conviction will not be swayed by threats, bribes, even assassination attempts by the ones who oppose them. You can call them Illuminati or the Elite, the cabal, New World Government or Secret Government, New World Order or the darkness, it’s all the same. It’s the disparate groups that are operating under the heavy influence of the dark forces, that vast force field of negative thought forms. That is too esoteric to give out on the program, but the full truth about this vast populated universe will be revealed as Earth progresses into higher energy planes. I think that covers everything. Thank you, Matthew. 11. MATTHEW: Thank you, Hatonn. This is a good place for timely questions that are combined as, Will proof of extraterrestrial life make it easier for all of humanity to awaken spiritually to the Oneness of All with God? As greatly as we wish this for all Earth’s peoples, we have to say that it is not likely. Proof of intelligent life beyond Earth does not automatically impart spiritual clarity to a third density civilization, and the majority of your world’s population still is at that level. Of the many other long-hidden truths that will be revealed, the most difficult for many to accept is the origin and purpose of religions, and there will be strong resistance to accepting that truth regardless of how solid the evidence is. Without understanding that greedy, power-hungry individuals devised religious dogmas to control and divide the masses, to make God a fearful supreme being whose rules must be obeyed and that those self-serving individuals themselves made those rules, and that much of the information given by God’s true messengers was distorted or omitted in religious books, there can be no spiritual clarity or growth of the soul. 12. Hatonn spoke of the formidable opposition to acknowledging the existence of extraterrestrial life. This includes creating fear about the motives of other civilizations, and the dark ones have been doing that through entertainment venues. While it may appear that the television show “V” was strategically planned after initial discussions a year or so back about officially recognizing other civilizations, producing that kind of viewing is just another means whereby seeds of fear have been planted throughout the ages. The same is true of the movie “2012,” designed to evoke fearful thoughts that the world really may come to the kind of end that some fundamentalist religions are expecting. With “entertainment” catering to that belief and refreshing the fear about aliens, not to mention the many other popular entertainment forms based in violence, you can see why all aspects of the announcement program must be so carefully considered. 13. Fear is the dark ones’ most powerful weapon against the light because the energy of fear not only forms a barrier between the consciousness and the soul, it refuels the darkness to keep it thriving. Another means of achieving that two-way objective as well as reducing the world’s population was developing various strains of “flu” viruses. An important part of this diabolical scheme to create plagues, which during your history have caused massive fear and death tolls, was the conditioning of Earth’s peoples to regard death as the ultimate in fear. 14. The mysterious illness striking in the Ukraine and spreading beyond its borders is a continuation of the dark ones’ biowarfare. After failure to produce the intended global fear and death toll with the SARS, avian flu, and swine flu/N1H1 viruses, which were neutralized by our space family’s technology, the darkly-inclined ones developed a combination of strains whose virulence cannot be destroyed with the same high degree of success as with those three lesser toxic laboratory-designed viruses. 15. The intended pandemic and death toll will not happen, but not all who become sick will recover. While some souls are dying in accordance with the longevity part of pre-birth agreements, others are leaving prior to contract fulfillment. In Nirvana those souls will find that completing their chosen third density karmic lessons is easier than in a physical lifetime because all learning—it is not learning new information, it is remembering what you know at soul level—is facilitated by the powerful love energy in Earth’s spirit world. This is true of all souls who left or will leave prior to contract completion or whose petition to amend the original terms was or will be honored. 16. Another widespread fear is lack of the essentials that sustain life—clean air, food, and water—and the dark ones have been relentless in their efforts to befoul Earth’s natural elements as well as deny billions of her residents even subsistence living conditions. Through long ages of instilling fear through mental conditioning and devising circumstances that engender fright, illness, suffering and death, the darkness has controlled Earth’s peoples. 17. I want to address my statement in a previous message that several readers interpreted as my saying that genetically modified foods are not harmful. No, I was not saying that. I was giving those foods and one-season seeds as examples of the many ways the darkness conceives to adversely impact your lives and keep fear flourishing. Mother, please copy the part I am referring to. “Other information in circulation also is designed specifically to create fear. For example, grains, fruits and vegetables produced by grafting have been consumed for decades with no adverse health effects, so from whence came the idea that “genetically modified foods” are harmful? The more recent production of seeds that cannot produce future crops is another matter—like other developments devised with dark intent, it also will be short-lived. Time is fast running out for anything and everything born of darkness!”18. Thank you. In retrospect I see that my words did not clearly convey that genetically modified foods and non-reproductive seeds come from dark intent to create fear, but since my mother understood my meaning, neither of us realized that it should have been stated more clearly. I shall repeat that excerpt’s last sentence, which has no ambiguity whatsoever: Time is fast running out for anything and everything born of darkness! 19. What the darkness had not reckoned with was your reawakening and reclaiming your god and goddess powers that let you shake loose from its control. This triumph for you is doom for the darkness, but even with all the evidence that their end is inevitable, the puppets of the dark forces will not accept defeat as long as they can arouse fear and panic. We know that many enlightened souls often ponder how best to serve the light. We say, hold your light steady and send forth beams of unconditional love to Earth—the energy of love, which is the same energy as light expressed differently, is far more powerful than the energy of fear! 20. We understand that when you see your world in turmoil with so many enduring sorrow, hunger, disease and poverty—and those are the focus of news reports—it is difficult to always see the love, beauty and goodness that is even more prevalent in your world. It always is surrounding you in abundance, much of it unseen with your eyes, but so close to you in spirit. When headlines “are too much with you,” visualize the world of peace and love that you know awaits in your timing and already is manifested in universal timing. Allow feelings of joy and love to flow into and from your heart—love is inestimable in its capacity to uplift you and all who are around you, and this energy is so powerful that it radiates into distant lands. 21. Yet not everyone will choose to embrace this energy because it entails opening minds to many truths, and paramount among them is the Oneness of All, the inseparability of all souls with God and Creator. Please do not be saddened if persons very dear to you cannot “see the light,” and please do not feel it is your responsibility to urge them. Everyone will awaken in his or her own timing—if not in this lifetime, then in another with the same opportunities to grow spiritually. At whatever station you and souls you love may be, eternal love bonds forever unite you—life is eternal, the soul is immortal! 22. If I’m having trouble seeing myself or anyone else as a god or goddess, will this reduce my chances of ascending with Earth? Anyone whose self-identity is based on a perception of a “godly” appearance is looking outside instead of knowing inside. According to the gender each of you chose for this lifetime, you are designated as either a god or a goddess, but that differentiation is not important—knowing that every one of you is a part of God IS! God is androgynous, the balance of feminine and masculine energies, and those have nothing at all to do with gender, but rather soul essence. 23. It could be helpful and equally accurate to think of humanity as that essence instead of individual gods or goddesses, which only signifies the gender choice of each soul for this lifetime. Because this could give rise to questions about transsexual persons, I repeat that it is essence—not form and features or sexuality or gender—that constitutes a soul. It is the choices each of you makes in using that essence that constitutes living in “godly” ways or not. Everything in our universe is eternally interconnected with and inseparable from God, by whatever name, and every soul is a part of that Oneness. Knowing this, feeling this, is part of the spiritual growth that enables ascending into higher densities. 24. Will babies and children make the ascension journey with Earth? Unless these souls chose very short incarnations to benefit themselves and all others in the pre-birth agreement, yes, indeed they will go along with Earth. 25. What physical changes will children undergo as they shift into 4D bodies? Some souls who recently came in have bodies with crystalline cellular structure, and those who don’t will experience less upsetting physical and emotional symptoms than adults whose bodies also are changing from carbon-based to crystalline. Part of adults’ adjustment is the uprooting and discarding of thought patterns that form belief systems and behavior patterns burdened by cellular memory. Children simply have not lived long enough to be as heavily indoctrinated and they respond more quickly and positively to the higher vibrations than most adults. Many souls who embodied during the past few years consciously know their God connection and are aware of their rightful place in our universal family—that innate knowledge did not get “lost” in their third density bodies. It is devoutly hoped that the parents chosen by these infants and youngsters will preserve rather than thwart their children’s unusual degree of curiosity that is born of ancient wisdom. 26. How can we know what is intuition and what is our own thoughts? Intuition is an instantaneous reaction to a new situation or new information and is a sensation more than a “full blown” thought. What you call a “fleeting thought” may be intuition, but if your impression of the situation or information comes after a pause and has clear mental focus, then it is a thought. Pondering or analyzing any issue is your own thoughts about it. You could think of intuition as the signal that motivates you to take instant action in accordance with your spontaneous reaction or to seriously think about why you had that reaction—perhaps a lifesaving measure or a job change, respectively. 27. “We seem to be confronted more than ever with our ‘dark’ issues. Is there a 'deadline' on dealing with those feelings, attitudes, emotions, addictions, etc. or should we just acknowledge them and we will simply outgrow them as we evolve into 4D existence?” This contemplation goes directly to the core of third density’s duality—the spectrum of human emotions, characteristics and behavior—and souls’ multiple lifetimes to experience and overcome duality’s pitfalls. 28. Although you could say there is the deadline of mortality for completion of chosen experiencing in each incarnation, there is no such deadline within the timeless continuum where multiple lifetimes—the soul’s experiencing personages, each its own independent and inviolate self—are happening simultaneously. It is difficult to comprehend something that cannot be remembered as personally experienced and for which there is no conscious frame of reference, like life without linear time and a soul comprising many independent soul-personages, but we shall do our best to explain what you do know at soul level. 29. In your galaxy, Earth is one of the best schoolhouses for learning to deal with duality—that’s why you are there. Graduation, so to speak, is mastering duality’s many challenges and evolving into fourth density, where duality doesn’t exist. It may require only a few lifetimes or many hundreds for a soul’s personages to have thoughts, emotions, motives and activities with positive, or light, vibrations rather than those with negative, or dark, vibrations. 30. Each lifetime in Earth’s spirit world is in preparation for the next incarnation, the soul’s next personage. The soul reviews its most recent physical life and in the process, not only sees every moment throughout the lifetime, but feels all of its own emotions and the emotions of everyone with whom it interacted. Depending on how closely the soul adhered to its pre-birth agreement with the other souls who participated in the lifetime, you could say that this review process is the “heaven” and “hell” of religions. 31. However, the review, like karma, is neither reward nor punishment. It is evaluating the immediate past lifetime in the context of all personage lifetimes and determining what is needed to fill gaps or strengthen weaknesses in the collective experiencing. Because the goal of every soul is spiritual evolvement, one who is lagging may request advice from an “old soul” with advanced awareness, and a soul whose life review was lax will be guided by more experienced souls in selecting what it needs in its next personage life. 32. In spirit worlds the Oneness of All is known, and advice and guidance are given with unconditional love. That also is the basis on which souls agree to share a lifetime, including those who accept the “heavy” roles that give others the chance to experience what they need for spiritual growth. Because souls are inseparable yet function independently as personages, the evolution of one contributes to all. The reverse, devolvement, is just as true, so it is in all souls’ best interests to assist each other. That “motivation” explanation is only to show souls’ willing cooperation, because unconditional love is much more than the basis for pre-birth agreements and guidance, it is the very makeup of the soul. 33. With love abounding, it is logical to wonder how any soul can become dark. It is by being weak-willed and giving over godself’s powers to an entity that holds forth rewards of fortunes and control in return for greedy, ruthless, dishonorable, dictatorial actions. That entity is known as the dark forces, the vast force field of negative thought forms, and a soul who is lured by those rewards aligns itself and its actions with those thought forms, drops from its Beginnings in the light, and sinks into darkness. 34. Now then, a soul’s selection for each physical lifetime starts with parents for genetic, cultural and environmental reasons and it chooses specific skills, talents, interests, personality traits—everything that makes an individual unique. That composite along with intended interactions with all who will be sharing the lifetime becomes the new personage’s soul contract, its part of the pre-birth agreement. 35. A newborn has full awareness of the contract provisions, but they fade as the baby adjusts to the needs of a dense body and to parental conditioning. As the child grows, influence from peers, teachers and other authority figures comes into the lifetime. Not only has everything in the soul contract been forgotten, but there is pressure to conform to others’ standards and expectations. The soul keeps in touch with its personage through conscience, intuition, instinct, inspiration and aspirations to “nudge” the personage along the course of the contract. But the desire to express one’s free will is strong indeed and therein lie duality’s challenges: To which end of the spectrum are the personage’s interests, desires and goals heading, into the light or the darkness? 36. Now let us put all of you and all of that background into this moment that is unprecedented on Earth, indeed in the universe. In brief—because this has been extensively covered in various previous messages—Earth chose to leave third density, but because she was too weakened by negativity to do it alone, she asked for help. One form of assistance is the in-pouring of feminine, or goddess, energy to balance the long-dominant masculine energy that was the source of negativity. The “mingled” energy is magnifying all emotions and characteristics, and the differences between light and dark tendencies are increasingly noticeable. This “wheat and chaff” situation lets you more clearly see yourself –the conduct of others provides a mirror for you. 37. There is a universal “window” for Earth’s ascension and the linear clock is ticking. She is assured of reaching her destination in good time, but if you want to physically go along, you must wind up third density karmic lessons, just as you chose in your soul contract. Remembering that the soul nudges your consciousness in accordance with that contract, uncomfortable feelings about self are important messages. So far from this being a time of merely acknowledging discomfort with your attitudes or behavior, it is an opportunity with time limits to change them. 38. Evolving from third density into fourth does not happen simply because you’re on the planet and the planet is ascending. Your evolution comes with heeding conscience and intuition and the other wisdom your soul is giving to guide you in alignment with your contract. It comes with self-introspection, acting with honor, respecting all of Nature’s life forms, discerning truth from falsity, emulating but not copying persons whom you greatly respect, and not judging others. It comes with recognizing and feeling grateful for the blessings in your life, with forgiving yourself and others for perceived injustices. It comes with living from your heart, the seat of your soul.39. Never are you alone in your journey of self-discovery and evolution! Always the infinite arms of God—angels, spirit guides and free spirits, beloved souls in Nirvana, souls from spiritually advanced civilizations, and the energy of Christ consciousness manifested as love and light and unsurpassed in its powers—are with you. ______________________________________LOVE and PEACESuzanne WardWebsite: The Matthew Books

Thanksgiving....Gratitude!

There comes a time in your adventuring forth into the search for new ideas, new truths, or new manners of experiencing your own spiritual unfoldment; that you begin to realize the Truth of simplicity. What do we mean by those words? Concerning the month of November, you have several phrases which tend to place a meaning upon your experiences within the month. For some, this is a month of Thanksgiving, for others the month of November is simply called a gratitude month, and of course there is the time of harvesting and those reasons for gratitude. For some it is a time of gathering together with family and or friends and celebrating abundance by placing a feast upon the table; while others place bare plates and celebrate fasting. Yet we have begun with the phrase “truth of simplicity” and it is within this meaning that we would like to speak with you about gratitude and the vibrational frequencies experienced within such a manner of being. As you are most aware, there are different ways or manners of experiencing gratitude. One way is to force yourself to be grateful with the hopes that such forcing will change your manner of thinking and being. Another way of experiencing gratitude is to express great good thanks to another with the hopes that such expression will assist that being to be uplifted in spirit. Another manner of experiencing gratitude is to simply say “thank you” to the Universe or to Spirit for the occurrences within your day or for the very breath of life that continues to flow through your being. None of these ways are better or more spiritual than the other; in truth, there is no such thing as “more spiritual”, yet that is another topic of course. When we speak of gratitude, we are speaking of a manner of consciousness that resides most naturally within your being and flows forth within every breath. And it is when you are allowing the natural unfoldment of the cause and effect to occur that you are then able to perceive and perhaps to feel that vibration of gratitude. When you are efforting and trying to make things occur within your cause and effect – another most natural manner of residing within physicality – you are unable to recognize such vibration. Why? Is the reason that you are less than holy? That you are less than spiritual? That you have forgotten your correct – or right – manner of living? Of course not to all of those wonderings. We are not here to speak with you about what you are doing incorrectly. Remember, Beloved Ones, you are residing within a journey, a journey of your own unfoldement, a journey of discovery, the discovery of the more of who you are. You are unable to discern the vibration of gratitude when you are efforting because when you are efforting to make something occur, you have forgotten your own divine essence; you have forgotten that changes occur from within to without – that is, your external changes proceed according to your inner consciousness and focused emotional enjoyment in the knowing that your fulfillment is at hand. Yet the physical world and its challenges cause you to forget this truth, cause you to respond to the invitation to survive once again by trying to manipulate the world and its cause and effect, and cause you to become asleep to the most glorious natural manner of inner celebration: gratitude. What is gratitude? In this manner do we speak. If you would look to the trees as they bend to the wind, as they reach toward the sunlight, as their creative flowing causes leaves to form and grow… If you would look to the seas as the undulating waves celebrate the natural rhythm of her fullness of being… If you would look to the creatures as they reside within their own manner of being, birds flying, sheep bleating, horses kicking their heels in joy of entering the fields, turtles sunning upon warm rocks, fish swimming into depths and rising to the surface to catch a resting insect, crickets celebrating evening’s arrival, and so very much more. If you would look to the creatures and observe their natural manner of being, you would see the evidence of the vibration of gratitude – a celebration of what is. You see, Beloved Beings, as you are aware there is the breathing in and the breathing out of the universe, the forming and the unforming, the pulse beat of creation… and it is within this pulse beat that you do reside, that all does reside. Hear these words: when you reside within the conscious knowing of your own forming and unforming within the totality of all that resides within the pulse beat, you are then able to easily know within the fabric of your being that which is called the vibration of gratitude. When you pause within your busy day, pause to reflect upon the grandness of creation, pause to reflect upon the truth that you are residing within the most amazing breath of life, pause to reflect that your journey continues and will deliver to you the unknown-made-known, or pause to reflect that your awakening proceeds even against your refusal to recognize its gifts to you… when you pause in this manner, Beloved One, you are then able to recognize what is: the vibration of gratitude, the vibration of knowing that you are part of a grande whole, the thrill of receiving a hint of totality of being even whilst you cross the street, nod to an seeming stranger, dare to smile at the beggar, spill your coffee as you stare at the rainbow, weep at the loss of a friend, laugh at the hat the woman has dared to don, dare to place your bare feet upon the land, speak to a stray dog, hold your face upward to catch the kiss of the wind, dip your hand into cool waters, open your window to hear the rain’s dance upon the walk outside where many are running to escape its blessing, gaze upon the bear who visits your home more frequently than you dare admit, set your sails to capture the wind as it fills and breathes itself into your direction of journey, or when your refuse for one moment to hear your ringing telephone as your heart knows that there is so much more to life itself and that you are so much more within it. In these manners do you give to yourself the great good gift of knowing and experiencing that which always flows forth within in, through you: that called gratitude. And you might be asking, what about what we are trying to do upon earth? What about all the events that are held to assist the earth and its inhabitants to reside in peace? And we say to you, when you hear your own heart’s desires, you are then able to participate within such events without judgment against, but rather celebration for what is… and is becoming. You see, Beloved Ones, we have spoken of the grandeness of this time; yet know this to be true: as you view the future, you have forgotten to place your feet within the present. As you gather to activate energies that will breathe a breath of peace within the future, we ask you to hold peace within your being in every moment. As you gather to hold the oneness of all within your gathering, remember to hold the oneness of all within your knowing awareness… as you read these words, as you go forth within your day, and as you are tempted to view something as wrong and make yourself right. And each time that we say those words, there is no wrong or right, there is one being – or many beings – who ask, “What about…?” And we do love you when you ask such questions. Why? Because, Beloved One, in your asking, you are holding on to your need to be right. Isn’t that most curious? And why would you require yourself to be right? That answer is easy. The answer is that you have been living within survival for so long, for so very long. You have tried hard, you have perhaps succeeded and then failed, you have struggled, you have lost… lost much, and you have learned how to separate yourself from the difficulties by determining what is right and what is wrong. In your determining, you have judged others as wrong in order for your own rightness to place you above…above what? Above the struggle, above the horrors of survival. You have believed that you could find the portal or doorway to a better way, a way that would leave the struggle behind and give to you peace…inner peace at last. Beloved Ones, this has been your journey. You have been most brave. You have sacrificed much. And you have learned to be right, to do what you believe to be right, to take actions that will promote what you believe to be right. Survival has given all of this to you. And now there is a new way unfolding before you. You have already found the portal and walked through its inviting light. Now is the time to let go of the olde ways, the olde beliefs. Now is the time to let go of your need to be right and have others be wrong. It is not a crime, Beloved One, that you have lived in this manner, that you have developed this manner, a result of your journey within survival. Yet now you can let go of such needs. Here, in this new way of living, of being, there is no need to be right. If you reflect upon those words, perhaps you will take a deep breath and release such a need. Yes, such a releasing will take some practice. The olde ways will want you to continue within them… why? Because, Beloved One, your olde ways functioned upon the known, even if the known was a technique within survival, even if the known resided upon the foundation of the untruth of separation from the whole. Yet you are awake now. You are conscious to the truth that you are living in a new way. You have evidence of this living. What is the evidence? The olde ways no longer work for you. You can no longer effort to make things happen and then watch them happen. You can no longer practice the olde manifestation techniques and watch the results occur. And you have, of course, wondered what it is that you have been doing wrong. And we say to you, the answer is nothing. You have been doing nothing wrong. You are simply residing in a new way now. The new way asks you, invites you to let go of the olde manners of efforting. The new way asks you, invites you to become honest within your own inner reflecting. The new way asks you, invites you to dare to change. The new way asks you, invites you to dare to recognize what is your play. The new way asks you, invites you to dare to recognize that your own manner of play presents to you the avenue upon which your fulfillment is expressed in new and wondrous ways… within the physical. And you might be asking or wondering, how to begin… exactly. You might be asking for a practical way to begin this manner of residing within a new way… residing so that you can dare to change. And we speak in this manner for your asking. Your next phase of living asks something of you. What is it asking? It is asking you to become honest with yourself about something most important. What is it? Oh, Beloved One, you are going to love this! You are being asked to be still within your own self and ask yourself this question: What would I like to be happening in my life? Now such a question is an inner asking. And the answer is, as you might say, between you and your inner self. And such a questioning and answering might feel to be most familiar, as you say, almost like something of the past… yet we say to you, you have never truly participated in this manner. You have thought about this question, perhaps many times; yet you have not gone forth as we are suggesting. Why? How can we be certain of our words? Beloved One, never before have you participated in this manner whilst residing in your new life, within this new vibration. Then let us continue in this manner. Such an answer would necessarily continue to include the cause and effect within your life, would necessarily include your wants, wishes and dreams. Such an answer may be listed in as few as twenty or greater than one hundred. Yet, when you sit quietly and ask this question of your inner self, the answers will flow forth. Do not judge any of the answers as right or wrong. Simply begin to write down on paper you list in answer to that one question. Beloved One, as you proceed in this manner, you will discover after a while – so to speak – that you are answering with one word. Yet you cannot figure out that one word now… it seems to make its appearance when you have listed many many items… it seems to make its appearance at the conclusion of your listings. Then you will know that you are finished with this part of your participation within the beginnings of this next phase of your glorious living. Yet we say once again, do not judge any of your answers… simply allow them to flow forth! Then what is next? Next is the releasing of all of those wishes, hopes, and dreams; releasing them to the Universe. How do you do that? In any manner that you decide, or within this manner: wait until another day, a day after you have completed your list. Then, hold your list in your hands, hold it to your heart. Breathe in deeply and when you breathe outward, breathe upon your list, breathe as if you are breathing a wondrous blessing upon your list, as if you are breathing love into and upon your list. Then, Beloved One, breathe inward one more time and when you breathe outward, breathe upon your list and then say the words: I release you to the Universe and give great good thanks for my fulfillment. Then, Beloved One, sit quietly and rest. Allow the releasing. Later, place your list in a private place where no one will read it, as it is just for you. Do not destroy your list; simply put it away for a time. What is next? Practice paying attention. Attention to what? Practice paying attention to your inner urgings, to that little soft nudge to do something, to try something, to say yes or to say no, to have time to yourself. And when you have a tiny clue or hint, follow it and see where it leads you. For example, you might discover that there is to be a lecture or talk upon a topic about which you never thought you would be interested, yet you find yourself reading more and more about that talk or lecture. That is the hint. Follow your hint by going to that lecture. You do not have to take notes or memorize anything; simply go to that lecture. Remain objective and listen, observe. If anyone asks you why you are attending, simply say that you thought the lecture might be interesting. In this manner do you place yourself within those vibrations that will give to you the next and then the next step or participation in your wondrous journey. Remember, your journey is for yourself and not for saving humanity, though the truth is that you will – as will the others who are also participating in this manner – be assisting those patterns of wondrous living and journey to be activated and anchored in the living upon earth. You might call this anchoring and activation a by-product of your own decision to reside fully awake and participating within your glorious life. When you place yourself in this manner, within this practice, Beloved One, you are daring to choose the life that is really for you, you are daring to give up on survival, and you are daring to receive the mysteries-made-known… and so much more. This is the journey for which you have been waiting, the journey which you knew did exist… somewhere. It is here and it is now. You will proceed within your daily cause and effect, as you have in what you call the past. Yet something will be different. Your manner of paying attention will be different. You might call this “fun”, wouldn’t you, Beloved One? And as you go forth in this manner, it is the vibration of gratitude that moves your footsteps, that causes your awareness to expand, that brings spontaneous laughter from your heart, that causes you to fall in love with seemingly everyone, and that gives to you the knowing, the growing awareness, that you are and always will be fulfilled. This is the new way. It is called gratitude. Blessed are we in the speaking with you.

Oh Bravo, Dear One!

Once upon a time...............

There once was a being who walked the mountains and loved the mountains. One day he walked to the sea and therein found his soul.

Beloved One, each and every experience gives to you an opportunity to know yourself better, and it is within this knowing that you are able to choose which direction within which to journey… where will you walk within this day? What will your journey give to you in this day? And, what will you celebrate in this day? What will you recognize as the past and no longer required for your present journey?

Remember, Beloved One, that you are no longer a victim to life’s circumstances. Those days are over. When you change your manner of interpreting your cause and effect, when you find your own inner peace and love, and when you choose joy and delight… you are then the creator of your journey… you are then calling to you those experiences that will fulfill your hopes and dreams… those same hopes and dreams that are birthed within your inner peace and love for self.

Oh Bravo, Dear One! Bravo to you for residing upon earth!

Iris talks about crop circles

Dear Rainbow Scribe Family,First of all, I would like to say a warm welcome to all the newRainbow Scribe members. The Masters have been calling you and you haveresponded. You are Loved!Iris (my Higher Self for we are One) has declared to me in the pastfew days that I am being asked to choose a Crop Circle symbol I feeldrawn to and start writing about the meaning of it..since I (Marlene,outer Self) know nothing about Crop Circles and have only admired afew of them, relatively speaking, and all I can say about them is thatthey are beautifully executed in a precision of detail that would beimpossible for man on Earth to duplicate in a period of a few hours orovernight . I was flabbergasted and not just a little overwhelmed whenIris indicated that I am to write a screenplay, no less, about them!Now, this has really thrown me for a loop.and elicited a great feelingof stubbornness within me ("I won't do it! I won't do it! .how CAN Ido it?...") since it is well beyond my immediate comfort zone,knowledge and expertise. She indicated to me that I had the ability todo this.Hmmm..work with what you've got.After stewing over it for a few days,I picked one symbol that appealed to me that many people have taggedas the 'jellyfish'. I just decided to state to Iris the following andlet HER tell me:"Iris, please explain the meaning of the Crop Circle symbol above thatwas manifested on the Earth surface on May 29th, 2009."This was her reply:"The origin of this crop circle symbol is from the Pleiades. ThePleiades is the original home to much of Humanity. Those from thePlanets in this cluster are here at this time to help in re-awakeningas many as possible to their starry origins. Every one on Earth is apart of some or of many other Planets in this Solar System and beyondit. The purpose of these symbols is to awaken Humanity to reach beyondthe confines of the limited system of belief that have held thementrapped for far too long. When one views the symbols, oneunderstands at a much deeper level, that there is more that needs toawaken to greater awareness. The crop circle symbols have created muchquestioning and searching for the answers of what they mean and inthis way, Humanity as a whole is expanding beyond their limitations.Those who pay attention begin to discern the message held within eachsymbol.This particular crop circle symbol depicts the upcoming massdecloaking of all the Lightships in our vector of space that will makethemselves visible at the same time. This will be easily observed byevery human being upon the face of the Planet and those that might beflying through the air. This event is scheduled to begin in November2009. This event is ready to occur at any moment. Humanity will Awakenin the masses upon seeing these Lightships floating majestically andbeautifully all around them in the skies and in the Earth'satmosphere. No matter where on Earth you as a Human might be, you WILLsee this event.This message symbol was a harbinger of the events that are about totake place upon and around the Earth. Since Humans cannot see orbelieve anything unless it be of a physical nature, let it be knownthat this sighting by masses of Humanity will BE of a physical natureand will change the World forever. This crop circle symbol alsodepicts the raising of the vibrational levels of Humanity from thelower chakras to the Higher chakras in a way that will create ananswering downpouring so that the effect will be permanently anchoredwithin all who observe this event. When the majority of Humanityparticipates in this sighting, their raised vibrational frequency willuplift the vibrational levels of their Brothers and Sisters aroundthem that did not. In this way, all will be transformed. The eventitself will be magnificently displayed in beautiful crystalline colorsalong with sound vibrations that will create enormous feelings of loveand peace within all hearts, not just the Human hearts, but ALL heartsthat inhabit the Earth."©2009 Marlene Swetlishoff therainbowscribe@ gmail.com This Messagemay be shared with others provided that Scribe's name, copyright, andthis link is included: http://www.therainb owscribe. comThank you for including the website link when sharing this Messagewith others.

We are spiritual beings inhabiting bodies

Today's Reflection - Excerpt, Mystical Class with Merlin (Channeled October 31, 2009)

Merlin:
All right, I’ll say just a little bit more, then we’ll complete ourselves. On the very practical level… now even a phrase like that ...on a very practical level… what is that anyway? You see that, as human beings and as you are, you think that practical level has to do with physicality, and in some books it might. Practical tools for living. What’s the first tool? Give up thinking you know who you are. That’s a real practical tool. It doesn’t mean that you are going to float around and not have a name and be unsure of yourself and not know how to make decisions or choices that are real to you. It means that you recognize that you are spiritual, spirit beings and you are residing in humanness. A spirit being residing as a human. That’s a practical tool. You might think, “Well okaaay.” As you would say, “Okaaay.” Yes. “Okay, I’m a spirit being and I’m living in a human body.” But I’m telling you, that’s the first practical knowingness. Why? Because it leads you to the full recognition of more. It leads you to recognize that you are not just a human being fumbling around here on earth, trying to figure out how to live. Of course human beings are trying to figure out how to live on earth… until, until what? Until they awaken to the fact that they are not a human being. That they are a glorious, beautiful spirit that is living in a human vessel. So I guess that the first practical knowing is…Number One, I’m not really human. Now I know there are a lot of jokes about that… yes, you would come up with a lot of them; but the truth is, you’re not. You’re living in a human body. You are living in the cause and effect of human beings, but that doesn’t mean that you have to stumble around like human beings, trying to figure out how to live, how to make money, how to stay healthy, how to figure out what to do with today. Nothing wrong with all of that, to live in the turmoil. Aha! But you can begin to develop your relationship with who you really are, and when you do… you won’t be stumbling around out there in the world, you will know more your correct choices for your own self. You’ll know more. And for heaven’s sake, stop telling yourself that you can’t think of things, and don’t remember things, and you never make right decisions, that you’re stumbling around, you’re not coordinated. Stop telling yourself that. Your poor human nature is going to have to provide for you everything that you say! Second practical information: your human nature, in which you reside, will give you everything that you tell it to, tell yourself. It’ll be exactly as you tell yourself to be. When you say, “I’m stupid about this,” your human nature will say, “Oh, okay, I’ll be stupid about this.” If you tell your human nature, “I’m just uncoordinated. I trip over my own feet…” That’s a phrase that you all say once in a while… “I trip over my own feet.” And your human nature will say, “Ok, okay. I’ll do that.” Your human nature, your humanness, forms for you. And as you grow and develop, you learn how to live according to human nature. Until moments like this, when you discover, when you hear the truth being spoken that there’s more to this whole thing about living on earth, and you begin to say to yourself, “I am totally connected with the all knowing. I know how to make the right decisions for my own self. I know how to care for myself and care for others. I am totally coordinated. I’m healthy and whole. My body continues to regenerate itself just for me.” When you make statements like that, your body will then say, “What?” Your human nature will say, “What? You mean, I’m not ill-coordinated? I don’t trip over my own feet? Let me give that a try again, I’m not sure about this.” And so you might stumble. That’s your human nature saying to you, “Are you sure about this? You used to stumble around and you used to say ‘I trip over my own two feet’. I’ve been practicing that for twenty years, or not quite twenty years.” And so then, when that happens, you can say, “Now it’s not true anymore. I am really coordinated, well balanced.” And the human nature then says, “Oh. Okay.” Imagine that! If you say to yourself, your human nature, “Every time it gets cold, my body aches and it just hurts me,” your human nature says, “Oh, okay.” But when that occurs, you can say to your entire being, “I have the full capability of generating that temperature within and about my body that will support my wholeness of being and my perfect health. And that’s what I’m doing. That’s what I choose… because I’m capable of it.” Again, your body might say, “Are you sure? You’ve been telling me that this cold causes us to have pain and to double over.” And it may do that. But instead of saying the same message again, saying that, “All right, you’re right body, all right human nature, you’re getting older, you might as well get more decrepit….” Instead of saying that, you change. You say, “No.” If it’s what you choose, you say, “I am fully capable of generating by choice alone what is required of my body.” And then the human nature and the body say, “Oh. Let’s give that a try.” And when you continue to choose in this manner, your human nature will begin to provide for you the fulfillment of your choice. Say you have a program on language studies… now this wonderful being says, “I’m going to get an A in this because I’m really good at it.” And guess what, you’re whole system says, “OK, yes I will.” That’s how it works.And you might say, “Well, Merlin, what if I don’t have a knack for languages?” And I’m saying, “Says who? You just said it! You just said you don’t have a knack for languages, so your body and your entire human nature says, “Oh, okay.” So that’s a good step two, practical tool. Practical tool. And the third is… it’s going to sound like there’s nothing to it. It’s called Love. It’s called not only lov-ing. Love. What is love? It’s a vibration of wholeness inside of your own self that supports the totality of who you are. What does that mean? It’s a vibrational frequency, a pulse beat, within your own self that supports your knowing of the beauty of your spirit and its conforming human nature. That’s love. And the more that you open yourself to loving yourself, the more that you are able to be awake to all that you are. If you want to call it, the Third Practical Tool, it’s a certainty to unlock the all knowing, the truth of all there is… it all begins with opening to love of self. Love of self is not physical. It’s accepting. It’s accepting… and now here’s the trick to all of that, if you want to call it a trick… As a human being, there’s a yearning for perfection. What is that perfection really? What is that yearning? It’s really an interpretation. It’s really a yearning for the all that you are, that I’ve been telling you about, this beautiful spirit that you are. That’s your yearning for perfection, what the human nature wants. It’s natural for the human nature to make mistakes, to not be totally perfect according to the spirit. But you, as your spirit being, residing in your own human nature, can love the imperfection of your incarnating, of your human nature. And that’s love. To just love. For example, in human nature some beings can run like the speed of a bullet. They just have something in them that they can just be physically very fast. And you might say, “Well Merlin, what if I say I can be very fast?” I’m saying, in this instance that you discover what are your specialties that you are very capable of. If you see a being dancing the dervish, it doesn’t mean that you can’t learn to spin as they do. But to know that is that being’s specialty. If you try and you’re not quite as successful, but you are still participating in it; then love your human nature in the experience of trying something. Love yourself. Love your human nature. And when I’m saying that, I’m saying… here you are, this beautiful spirit being… you are living inside now this humanness, this human nature… love that human nature. It’s your birth right. It is your avenue to experience yourself while you are in physicality while you’re on earth. Love everything about yourself, and the more that you love yourself, the more that love will allow the fullness of what you are… to expand. It’s a very powerful tool. It’s a very powerful tool.What does it do and why is it powerful? It allows the fullness of who you are, this beautiful spirit, to be more and more incarnate. Yes. Remember, the spirit that you are is a glorious, glorious being capable of everything. Why everything? Because you are united with the whole, the wholeness of being. And here you are incarnate. Love yourself and embrace yourself, be good to yourself, say kind gentle things to yourself, about yourself… refuse to say the opposite ever… when you hear it [the opposite] being spoken by your mind or in your heart, just say, “That doesn’t apply to me.” It’s all inside. The more that you do this, the more that your spirit will be able to incarnate who you are. And then, you reside in what you call Paradise. You reside in the kind of living that creates for you fulfillment in all ways, fulfillment in health, fulfillment in love, fulfillment in monies, fulfillment in the love of your work, fulfillment… in whatever you choose. Why? Because you are then an irresistible magnet to all that that comes to you to fulfill that which you are. It’s a very powerful tool. I think three is a good number. I think we should stop at three. Maybe another time if you are sitting together like this, we can speak of other tools. Until we speak again then, I’m Merlin and I’ll be on my way… the earth is so very lucky to have you here. So very lucky.
