A NEW YEAR IS A TIME OF GRACE!

A NEW YEAR IS A TIME OF GRACE!

Nancy B. Detweiler

All of us greet each New Year with a sense of relief mixed with excitement over a clean slate for the coming year.   We anticipate a year that will be better … more personally fulfilling … a year filled with exciting new adventures.

Think about it … why do we celebrate? … why do we want to begin the New Year with those we love? … why is the ending of the old year and the dawning of a new one such a milestone?

Most, if not all, of us can relate to the above feelings; but, do we know why?  According to the Ascended Masters’ teachings, the beginning of a new year is a time of grace.   Archangel Michael presides over the Autumn Season, as evidenced by the deep blue of the skies.  Blue is the Father (or Source) Ray; it transmits power.  The inner color of Autumn is a soft, golden tone—the Christ (Love) Ray.  Both of these Rays are visible to our physical eyes during the Autumn Season.  Earth’s atmosphere is suffused with a shimmering blue-gold light.

Autumn is a time of cleansing … of transmuting … of purification.  Archangel Michael’s radiations are cleansing … they turn the spiritual seeker inward and urge him/her to cleanse the lower nature … to truthfully look at the unresolved issues that hold us to the present step on our spiritual path.  As hard as we may try, we cannot detour around our issues.  They will continue to trip us up until we place them on the table … look at them honestly … understand what they are attempting to teach us … and release them, giving thanks for the lessons learned.   Autumn is a time for deepening our commitment to the spiritual path.  It is a time of walking consciously in the Light of Divine Love.

The Winter Solstice begins on December 21 and reaches its climax of spiritual power at midnight of December 24.   This night is holy because it marks the birth of a new Sun … the birth of a new and higher degree of Divine Love within the spiritual seeker.   Christians call this season “Christmas;” however, it is a holy season for the entire planet—regardless of religion.   All of humanity is influenced by the change in seasons in ways that we have, heretofore, been largely unconscious.

At the stroke of midnight on December 24, a strange peace enfolds the planet … the Universal Christ Spirit (Divine Love) has entered the heart of the Earth.  Hosts of Angels & Archangels surround the Earth singing and sending forth their divine blessings upon all of humanity.  Every tree … every plant … all of creation blends with the ecstacy of music and Light.    Earth becomes a luminous ball of Light.  As year after year, this Divine Light and Angelic Music suffuse the Earth, humanity grows increasingly unable to hate, kill, or discriminate against another.

As we approach December 31, humanity enters a period of grace during which all “UN-intended” negative acts are erased from the Akashic Records.  The Universal Law “We reap what we sow” no longer applies to these “UN-intended” karmic acts.  This is an act of Divine Grace to assist humanity on its spiritual Path.   This lessening of our karmic load is exhilarating … our slate is truly lighter … we look forward to a New Beginning!

NOTE:  In writing the above, I referred to Corinne Heline’s book entited:  COLOR & MUSIC IN THE NEW AGE.

NOTE:  One of the most profitable methods for dealing with the issues we attempt to repress is to write your life story.  Beginning with the earliest year you can remember, list the following:

1.  For each year of your life, list the major events that occurred.

2.  Under each major event, list how you “immediately” reacted.  How did I feel?  How did I express or fail to express what I felt?

3.  Under each major event, list how you have continued through the years to respond to this event.

4.  Under each major event, answer this question:  “Have I been able to come to terms with the feelings I experienced?”  In other words, do I continue to attempt to repress those feelings – or – are these feelings now simply a part of my life story that no longer have the power to impact adversely my life?

5.  Under each major event, answer this question:  “What have I learned from this experience?”

REMEMBER:  The goal of all major events in our lives is soul growth.  ASK:  Have I used this event to help me become a better person?  Have I allowed the universal law “All things work together for good for those who love God” to manifest in my life?

6.  Consulting a professional counselor may be the climax to this exercise; however, if you are absolutely honest with yourself and take the time to think through your life story, you will most likely find that you are freed from the burden you have carried for years in the form of unresolved issues.

7.  Be sure to WRITE DOWN your life story.  The act of writing it down goes a long way toward cleansing your energy field.  Writing it down gets it outside of you, where you can look at it objectively and decide how to best deal with it.

8.  Don’t allow our busy world to make you think “I don’t have time to do this.”  In truth, YOU DO NOT HAVE THE TIME TO NOT DO IT.

Planet Earth is moving into the 5^th dimension in the very near future.  No unresolved issues can be carried with us.  It is imperative that we all cleanse our energy field of unresolved issues.  Using the remainder of this holiday week can be an excellent time to at least begin writing your life story.

Give yourself the gift of private time in which you can experience each major event and reconcile it in a way that adds positive energy to your life.

New Year’s weekend is the perfect time for personal reflection and transmutation!

FOR IT IS A TIME OF GRACE!

 

THE AWAKENED CHRISTIAN

THE AWAKENED CHRISTIAN Nancy B. Detweiler, M.Ed., M.Div. NOTE: For the purposes of this article, I use the term “Source of our being” to refer to the omnipresent energy of Divine Love in which we live and move and have our being—the Ultimate Source of all creation. I use the term “Awakened Christian” to mean the one who follows Jesus as A Wayshower on the pathway to individual ascension. Jesus, as a Wayshower, reveals the way; He cannot walk the path for us. The awakened Christian recognizes this fact and strives to tread his/her own pathway to ascension. *********************************** For seventeen hundred years, the Christian religion has abided by a set of doctrines created by men dedicated to standardizing the acceptable beliefs concerning the nature of the Source of our being and of Jesus. The resulting codified religion leaves little or no room for Christians to seek Truth on their own. Reprimands, accusations of heresy, excommunication, and loss of job, family, and/or friends hover in the shadows ready to pounce on anyone daring to explore our magnificent world by going outside the traditional Christian doctrines. Fear stifles our innate curiosity to learn more about the Source of our being and where we, as humans, fit into the divine scheme of cosmic life. Christians are taught to read the Bible as the Word of God and to interpret it in accordance with the codified church doctrines. A literal interpretation of the Scriptures results in a multitude of horrifying teachings concerning the nature of our Source and of human beings. Little do we realize that our concept of God and ourselves forms the philosophical foundation for our relationship to each other and to our planet. We have created a God in our own misguided image of self and it is not a pretty sight. This God is a warrior who fights on one side or the other, is bloodthirsty and without compassion when it comes to killing the enemy including women and children. We have created a God who is far less than the average human being. This God is unforgiving and plans eternal punishment for those who do not abide by the accepted doctrines of the Christian cult (a cult is defined as a system of beliefs to which its adherents cling out of fear and for a sense of security and assurance about the future life). Human beings created a God separate from self, a God to whom we pray and can only hope He hears. If He does hear, we never know how He will respond. We do not know the meaning of the Apostle Paul’s statement to the Greeks in Athens: “In him we live and move and have our being.” (Acts 17:28) The writer of I John reveals our Source of being: “God is love, and those who abide in love abide in God, and God abides in them…. There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts our fear; for fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not reached perfection in love. We love because he first loved us. The commandment we have from him is this: those who love God must love their brothers and sisters also.” (I John 4:16, 18-19, 21) These few verses of Scripture are the building blocks on which the Awakened Christian acquires Truth. We are to know the Truth: We live and move and have our being within the energy of Divine Love—the Source of our being. Neither exceptions nor middle ground are permitted when the Awakened Christian lives in love. Anything contrary to Love is not Truth. Fear is not possible when we live and move and have our being within the energy of Divine Love. Punishment is not of Love. Punishment must be distinguished from discipline in that the art of self-discipline is required in order to evolve spiritually. Discipline is written into the universal law “we reap what we sow.” (Galatians 6:7) A God of Love cannot and will not punish. God as Love allows us to develop the very advanced art of self-discipline by harvesting whatever type seeds we have planted and learning the lessons involved by means of the reaping process. With Divine Love as the foundation, the awakened Christian is set free of the chains of orthodoxy to explore Universal Truth. Gone is the fear that we might lose our faith if this or that is true; or, if I ask too many questions. Evaporated is the fear that God will sentence us to eternal punishment if we do not hold fast to church doctrines and to the literal interpretation of the Scriptures. The awakened Christian is no longer imprisoned by false teachings. Gone is the necessity to cling to the belief that Jesus’ crucifixion was the blood sacrifice God required in order to forgive humanity for its sins (mistakes). God is not impacted by our behavior, thus has nothing to forgive. The mistakes we make are a part of our own growth process—we reap what we sow. We do so while living and moving and having our being within the love energy of God. There is neither judgment nor sentencing. Our Source of being simply awaits our awakening. The awakened Christian recognizes that All of Creation lives and moves and has its meaning within the love energy of Source. Humanity is the microcosm of the macrocosm. The ingredients that make up our physical bodies are the same substances contained in all of creation. All is energy. All of creation sings to the sound of mathematics. Music is mathematics. There is no field of study that can be outside of omnipresent Source. Humanity can choose to misuse universal Truth; however, misuse does not mean Truth itself is outside of the loving energy of Source permeating All of Creation. The awakened Christian is aware that all attempts to categorize facets of creation as off-limits are operating outside of Truth. Example: In the late 15th century, the church condemned the study of astrology. In Truth, God created the stars, planets, and the qualitative influences they have upon human beings and the entire universe. Thus, the church condemned the study of a portion of God’s meaningful creation. As a result, orthodox Christians avoid the science of astrology and deprive themselves of the tremendous personal knowledge and guidance to be found therein. The configuration of stars on any given day of birth broadcasts the soul purpose and lessons to be learned for the souls reincarnating on that day. In truth, birthdays are celebrated as opportunities to re-affirm the soul’s intent for the coming year. (See Sun Signs on http://www.pathwaytoascension.com as an example of soul-centered astrology.) Soul-centered astrology is not the only avenue the universe offers in the form of extremely individualized guidance. The awakened Christian is familiar with the reason importance is placed on the names of the biblical characters. Names possess a numerical value that also proclaims our soul’s purpose for this incarnation. Our names depict who we are and were intuitively given to us by our parents. (See Your Destiny Number on http://www.pathwaytoascension.com to determine the meaning of your name.) The lines on the palm of our hands also reveal our potential personal story. Our handwriting shares the qualities of our personality with those who study it. Within the universe, we are an open, energetic book of life. We are known for who we really are—an indispensable part of the divine plan for the whole of creation. The planet on which we live is one of untold millions of inhabited planets throughout the cosmos. An awakened Christian is aware that all of creation is living and evolving—including the stars, planets, animals, rocks, and plants. Life never ends and is everywhere. No part of divine creation is non-essential; all of it is woven together to build the meaningful whole. Earth and the other planets are not simply round balls on which intelligent beings live; instead, they too are a form of intelligent being. There is a reason we call our planet Mother Earth, or Gaia. She is a living, intelligent, evolving spiritual being. As such, she has graciously consented to allow Earth humans to evolve along with her. All of creation is evolving into higher and higher planes of existence. Our Milky Way galaxy is one of many galaxies teeming with intelligent life and possessing technology so advanced as to render earthly technology infantile. A vast variety of beings exist within our galaxy—some appear very similar to Earth humans, others, very different. The awakened Christian is open to accepting our galactic family and working with them to restore Earth to its pristine purity and beauty. The Galactic Federation of Light will appear in visible form in the very near future. Our galactic brothers and sisters come in love to assist us in preparing Earth and ourselves for ascension into the 5th dimension of consciousness. No negativity may enter the 5th dimension; therefore, the awakened Christian accepts the divine call to purification. We acknowledge the fact that Earth has heretofore been our classroom; that we incarnated to learn lessons in soul growth. For this reason, we are all prone to make mistakes, some of which have been hurtful to others. As we achieve full consciousness of our eternal lifestream, we understand the reasons “why” for all of our difficulties and pain—they are the ways by which we learn. (See the 16 Lessons on the Metaphysical Interpretation of the Biblical Book of Job noted above.) With that understanding comes the knowledge that there is nothing to forgive, nothing about which to hold resentment. Just as Source has nothing to forgive in relationship to us, we have nothing to forgive concerning others. Once we understand the reasons “why,” we would not dream of punishing for eternity anyone who caused us pain by their mistakes. Instead, the spiritually advanced action is to thank others for assisting in our learning process. An awakened Christian is aware that eternal life has no beginning and no end. Eternal life for each of us involves a wide variety of experiences, both on planet Earth, on other planets throughout the universe, and within the realms of spirit. Most of us have chosen to incarnate on Earth numerous times because it offers the opportunity to learn—on the plane of duality—how to choose consistently good over evil. (The plane of duality is symbolized by the tree of good and evil in the biblical story of the Garden of Eden. Evil = live spelled backwards; in other words, evil is living with our backs turned away from our loving Source.) Now that the being we call Mother Earth, or Gaia, is preparing for ascension into the 5th dimension, we are given the choice to prepare for our own ascension into the 5th dimension or to go elsewhere within the universe to continue our spiritual evolution. Many of us originate from other planets and will have the opportunity to return to our home planet, which may already be functioning on the 5th dimension. Thus, the awakened Christian thinks in terms of a universe of planets and beings—all belonging to the family of God. The awakened Christian knows the Bible to be a book of narratives that reveal Truth through the medium of symbolism. An actual historical framework may or may not be present. The surface story serves as the skeleton housing a far deeper level of teaching. The metaphysical interpretation of the Biblical Book of Job, found at http://www.pathwaytoascension.com, offers a most vivid example of symbolic meaning within a biblical saga. We grew up being taught that Job depicts a righteous human being who suffered extreme loss, yet refused to curse God. Instead, the Book of Job reveals the process of individual ascension into higher levels of consciousness—a journey we must all undertake at some point in time. Likewise, the New Testament can be read as the account of embarking on intentional ascension into higher realms of awareness. Jesus—symbolizing the soul within each of us—shows us the way to achieve ascension through the five major events in his life: birth, baptism, transfiguration, crucifixion, and ascension. In summary, the awakened Christian thrills to the knowledge that the universe in which we live is alive and constantly evolving into higher manifestations of the Source of our being. There is no end to life, no reason to fear, no eternal punishment, no permanent state of being. There is only omnipresent Love in which we live and move and have our being. The awakened Christian is set free by seeking and knowing that the Holy Spirit within will guide everyone into all Truth.

KUCINICH PROPOSES LANDMARK REFORM OF MONETARY POLICY

Dennis Kucinich has proposed another Landmark Reform Bill that would render a much better life for ALL Americans.  As early as July 2001, he also presented a Bill that would create a cabinet level Department of Peace.  He has repeatedly re-introduced this bill which seems never to see the light of day.

I encourage Americans to get behind Kucinich and his efforts to assist “we the people.”  We must ask:  “Why do we ignore Kucinich–a rare politician who truly cares for the people and instead, support those who have their own self-serving agenda for seeking public office?”   Why do Americans support those politicians who can easily be “bought” instead of Kucinich, who will not be bought?  He stands tall in his own integrity–an integrity he does not compromise.

Kucinich Proposes Landmark Reform of Monetary Policy
Begins Discussion to Make Monetary Policy Work to Rebuild Economy

Washington, Dec 17 –

As the nation struggles with long-term unemployment at rates not seen in generations, contracted credit and the hoarding of public dollars by the banks, Congressman Kucinich (D-OH) today introduced a dramatic new proposal to establish fiscal integrity, reassert Congressional sovereignty and regain control of monetary policy from private banks.  The National Emergency Employment Defense Act of 2010 would allow the federal government to directly fund badly-needed infrastructure repairs and fund education systems nationwide by spending money into circulation without increasing the national debt.  The bill would end the current practice of fractional reserve lending, whereby the economy depends upon private financial institutions to lend money into circulation.

Congressman Kucinich stated, “The staggeringly bad employment and economic numbers represent a massive problem which cries out for bold action.  Rather than crossing our fingers and hoping that banks will finally lend some of the billions of public dollars they haven’t thus far seen fit to lend, we can take action. My bill would replace the Federal Reserve System’s dependence on private banks to create credit.  In its place, a Monetary Authority under the Treasury Department would directly inject liquidity into the economy by purchasing much needed public infrastructure repair. Today, we have idle capital, millions of able-bodied but unemployed workers, unused equipment, and record low interest rates. These conditions are the best possible time to make a long-term investment in our nation’s infrastructure. My bill would do exactly that.”

THE MIRACLE OF TAKING THE FIRST STEP!

THE MIRACLE OF TAKING THE FIRST STEP!

Nancy Detweiler

Responding to a friend who has just taken the first step into the seeming darkness of Divine Order unfolding, I am reminded of a time in my life when I did the same thing—quit my job because I knew intuitively that it was time.  I walked into the darkness, with only my intuition guiding me.

My college career is the story of one “miracle” after the other.  My parents had told me they could not afford to send me to college.  My response was to write the college (Mars Hill Junior College) and tell them that I had no money, but wanted to attend “on faith.”  I was accepted.  From then on, my every move was with the intention of attending college.  The financial aid office provided what was available to needy students in the form of scholarships, including a work scholarship.  I made it through my freshman year and went to my beloved Ridgecrest Baptist Assembly Grounds to work for the summer.  I had worked there the summer after high school graduation and former staffers in college had priority for future summers.  “Daddy” Weeks, the director, was truly our adoptive “Daddy.”

At the end of the summer, I returned home still needing more money for my sophomore year’s fall tuition.  I packed my luggage for school … got a job as a department store salesperson … and worked with the intention of returning to college that September.

Fall semester started … I still did not have the money to return.  I notified my college roommate, who offered to work my job and hers until I could get there.

Several days later, while at work, I knew.

It was time to return to school.  Not knowing how Divine Order was unfolding behind the scenes, I quit my job that day, telling them that I was returning to school.   I took the first step into the seeming darkness and a miracle happened!

When I got home, a check had arrived in the mail.  It was from an anonymous member of the church I attended for the amount I needed to pay fall semester’s tuition.

The next day I returned to college!  I still had a job, thanks to my roommate!  I had missed a week of classes.

What some would call a “struggle” continued throughout my college career—I went to school on faith.  I had asked to do so and I was granted that opportunity!  The miracles continued to happen!  One day, I was called to the Financial Aid Office and told that I would have to drop out if I did not pay 2^nd semester’s tuition.   I placed the task in God’s hands and returned to class.  A day or two later, a check arrived in the mail from my aunt—for the exact amount I needed to pay tuition.  I had spoken to no one but God!

I graduated from Mars Hill Junior College debt free.  My parents could not afford to attend my graduation, so a Mars Hill friend’s parents came in their place.  They gave me a pearl ring for graduation—I still wear this ring 42 years later.

Not having the money to continue college, I worked the summer at Ridgecrest, then went to Raleigh, North Carolina, and worked for a year.  Still, my every move was aimed toward returning to college.  A former suitemate’s father worked at the North Carolina Baptist Convention.  He helped me make contacts there; the result was that Wake Forest College in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, offered me a scholarship, grant, and work scholarship.  I returned to college after one year’s absence—still knowing the essential ingredient was maintaining faith that I could do it.

There were times at Wake Forest when I lived on boiled potatoes and tomato soup.  At one point, the boy I was dating offered to eat two meals a day, so I could have his meal ticket for one meal.  That lasted only a day or two, then the miracles began to happen.

In those days, the girls’ dormitory was secured.  All visitors could enter the lobby, but could go no farther without first checking in with the receptionist at the lobby desk, who called the student to come take the guest to her room.  If the student was not there, a record was kept of the visitors and the student was notified upon her return.

One day I returned to my dormitory.  When I unlocked the door to my room, I was greeted by a surprise!  My bed was covered with packages containing all kinds of essentials for college living, including checks signed by individuals I did not know.  A note was with the packages, stating they were sorry to have missed me and listing a Sunday School Class at a church in Raleigh.   I wrote a thank you note to the Sunday School Class.

Periodically, during the next two years at Wake Forest, I found my bed covered in gifts and checks at the very times I most needed it.  Always … the guests came while I was away from the dormitory and the lobby receptionist never had a record of anyone checking in with her. On top of that, we locked our rooms while away from the dormitory.  There was always a note:  “Sorry we missed you” and signed by the same Sunday School Class in Raleigh.  Each time, I sent a thank you note to that Class.

Once I graduated, had a job, and could purchase a car, I drove to Raleigh on a Sunday morning.  I wanted to thank the Class in person.  I attended the Class and during the announcement period asked to speak.  I thanked them for all the help they had extended to me during my years at Wake Forest.  They knew nothing of having done so, in fact, denied that the Class had adopted a college student.  I had no one to thank!

To this day, I do not know how my dormitory bed got covered with gifts and checks.  And no receptionist’s record of visitors!

All I know is:  Take the first step into the darkness of Divine Order unfolding and miracles begin to happen!

THE PURPLE TRANSMUTING FLAME – A MEANS OF GRACE FOR THE 21ST CENTURY

THE PURPLE TRANSMUTING FLAME

Nancy Detweiler

Quotes & references from Elizabeth Clare Prophet’s Climb the Highest Mountain: The Path of the Higher Self are made throughout this explanation.

“Our God is a consuming fire.”

Hebrews 12:29

As the New Aquarian Age appears, the Purple (or violet) Transmuting Flame has been revealed to humanity. Our lower bodies—physical, etheric, emotional, and lower mental—must be purified before we can re-unite with our higher bodies.

“Just as the discovery of physical fire drastically changed the course of Earth’s civilization, so the discovery of spiritual fire will abruptly alter [humanity’s] way of life as the Holy Spirit propels [our] consciousness from the depths of drudgery into the heights of joy in service and the instantaneous precipitation of abundance, health, happiness, and God-control.”

The electronic belt surrounding each individual, extending from the waist to beneath the feet, holds the accumulation of negative thoughts and feelings from this and eons of lifetimes. The electronic belt must be transmuted.  Why?

Spiritual energy is neutral … it magnifies whatever type energy it contacts.  Thus, if we choose to bring in spiritual energy through meditation, yoga, and other means of focusing on the spiritual, while not at the same time seeking to purify and release all negative energy within our lower bodies, that negative energy is intensified.  All energy seeks expression in whatever form is available.  Negative energy, especially if made stronger by the influx of spiritual energy, will express as physical ailments and pronounced characteristics matching the negative energy.  For example:  Repressed anger will become more pronounced and emerge in all sorts of “quirky” ways.

For this reason, holistic growth—physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual—is essential if we want to move forward on our spiritual journey.  Failure to grow holistically renders us chained in place.

Attempting to grow spiritually without transmuting our lower bodies.

By contrast, making the decision to engage in holistic growth and to transmute all negative energies within our lower bodies renders spiritual growth a very exciting adventure.

Holistic Growth allows us to move forward with great joy!

******************

During the 20^th Century, Ascended Master Saint Germain revealed the Purple Transmuting Flame to us in preparation for the end of a World Age in 2012 and the evolvement into the New Aquarian (or Golden) Age.

For this transmutation to take place, we must:

1. Invoke the transmuting flame.

2. Do so with the express desire to be rid of all negativity – we must make the conscious choice to awaken spiritually and to be healed. Universal Law decrees our freewill cannot be violated. When we fail to make the conscious choice to awaken, we have in actuality chosen to remain asleep spiritually.

3. Open our consciousness to the Light and allow the vacuum to be filled with that Light. We must choose the Light over darkness/negativity.

When we earnestly invoke the flame and open the floodgates of our consciousness to the Light, the negative energies that have been “imprisoned in matrices of imperfect thought and feeling are released.”  The transmuting flame envelopes individually every atom of our being, dislodging the untransmuted densities from the electrons within our electronic belt. “As this substance is loosed, the electrons begin to spin more rapidly in their orbits; and by centrifugal force it is thrown into the violet flame. On contact with this fiery essence of freedom’s flame, the misqualified energy is transmuted into its native purity” and returned to the Causal Body where all our positive thoughts, feelings, and actions are recorded. This energy can then be used in loving service.

“The violet transmuting flame enables [humanity] to win [its] freedom from every form of human bondage. Dubbed the violet singing flame by [Archangel] Zadkiel, it makes the very atoms of the four lower bodies sing in harmony with the divine blueprint and with the keynote of the [I AM PRESENCE] as the tiny electrons whirl in orbit at the perfect pitch of the pattern of soul-identity. The violet flame is the spiritual wine of forgiveness.”

The Apostle Paul describes this transmutation process in II Corinthians 15:42b-44, 49: “What is sown is perishable, what is raised is imperishable. It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power. It is sown a physical body, it is raised a spiritual body. Just as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we will also bear the image of the man of heaven.”

Through the use of the transmuting flame—the spiritual fire—we can return to the Edenic state, we can ascend. We must win our freedom while on the Earth, because earth plane is where we lost our way, where we became imprisoned with imperfect thoughts and emotions. In order to participate in the mystic marriage-the reunion of our lower with our higher selves, we must purify our wedding garments.

Remember that a part of the transmuting process is the opening of the floodgates of our consciousness for the influx of Light. Always allow the Light of God to fill the vacuum created by the removal of negative energy.

We defeat ourselves when we invoke the flame, then cling to our negative thoughts and feelings. We cannot place our negativity upon the altar of purification, then take it up again, and expect to achieve transmutation.

IT’S THE BANKERS OR US, Alex Jones

Alex Jones’ video is most important.  Please listen to it and share it with others.

You may read the BANKERS’ MANIFESTO at:  http://www.pathwaytoascension.com/manifesto.htm.

Our present world financial collapse has been planned for almost two hundred years.  Being in the know empowers you to take your life in your hands and be prepared.

Behind the scenes much good is taking place.  A new financial system is waiting; however the old must collapse first.  There may be some time during which many suffer deprivation.  It pays for all of us to be prepared for emergencies while anchoring our attention on the glorious future that is to be ours as the New Golden Age emerges.

MOVING INTO FULL CONSCIOUSNESS

MOVING INTO FULL CONSCIOUSNESS

Nancy Detweiler

 

Today an internet friend, Steve Beckow, and I unknowingly sat down simultaneously and wrote an article relating to how moving into full consciousness feels.  I will post the link to his article at the bottom of mine.

Earth humans are living through an event that has never happened in cosmic history—we have the opportunity to ascend with Planet Earth in our physical bodies to the 5^th dimension.  No one knows how this process will unfold.  All we know is what we are experiencing on an individual level.  One reason our planet is surrounded with our cosmic family is that they have come to observe this “never-before-happened” event.  No one can instruct us because no one has been here before.

What we do know is that multitudes of souls wanted to incarnate during this period … to participate in the events we are and will experience.  Those souls presently incarnated on Earth are the privileged ones—we have the opportunity to choose to ascend with Earth in our physical bodies!

If we choose to ascend, we have work to do involving our personal readiness.  I, and many others, have already found that we go through stages of self-discovery and release … of feeling one way, then feeling another way to a degree of variance not heretofore experienced … feeling our bodies change … feeling our emotions change … feeling the emptiness … feeling the fullness.  We are changing in a myriad ways.  One day we know who we are; the next we have no idea who we are or why we are here.

To make matters more intense, we are undergoing our personal ascension process while the world, as we have known it, is crumbling around us.  Nothing is the same … ALL things will be new.

NOW FOR THE ARTICLES

I.  My article:

One major way in which we are preparing for ascension involves meeting those persons with whom we have been associated in previous lifetimes.  These meetings are not chance—they carry a soul purpose for each individual involved.

One of the interesting facets to notice is how we reap in ways that help us correct or balance the karma.  Reaping is not punishment; reaping can become a tremendously beneficial process if both individuals consciously work to make it so.

Maybe I should first say that I am a former professional holistic counselor who used esoteric astrology as a tool for self-understanding. I have been privileged to walk around within the soul energy of many … to see how perfectly we plan an incarnation … how prior lifetime events are the basis for what happens in this incarnation.  The universal law “we reap what we sow” is widely accepted, but few of us think in terms of reaping in the present what we have sown hundreds or thousands of years earlier. We reap when our soul is mature enough to work out successfully the seeds sown. Why? Because we have played many roles and some have been mind boggling in their adverse impact. Thus, we save them until we are spiritually mature enough to work with them without being psychologically destroyed by being reminded of our past.

Although there have been many persons I’ve met and gotten to know with whom I’ve have shared lifetimes, three examples stand out.

1. Meeting a person with whom I had been married hundreds of years ago in China. This person was the husband and during our marriage had an affair. In retaliation, I killed him. In this lifetime, the attraction was powerful and the love deep. We worked closely together and could not professionally get away from each other. Because this person was already married, being together was not an option, so we were forced to work through/with the “reaping” situation. That lasted for seven years until I entered private practice.

This example offers a good illustration of how the reaping fits the seeds sown.

During this marriage in China, my husband was not faithful; I took revenge in the extreme.  We surely had lifetimes during the interval in which we developed deep love for one another.  This depth of love prepared and sustained us so that we could come together in the present incarnation and successfully reap the seeds sown hundreds of years ago in China.  My husband had sown seeds of unfaithfulness … I had gotten rid of him.  We severed the Chinese relationship using hurtful and destructive means.  In the present incarnation, the relationship could not exist.  Instead, we had to cooperate together in reaping what we had sown, and do so in a beneficial manner for both our souls’ growth.  We succeeded with what had to be done even though it was very painful to do so.  We met … loved deeply … but could not be together.  Luckily, we both accepted reincarnation and worked with the “reaping lifetime” in accordance with the seeds we had sown hundreds of years previously.

2. Meeting a person with whom I had shared several lifetimes in an Essene Community and in monasteries/convents. During one of the many times of cruel religious persecution, I stood by and allowed this person to be persecuted without the help I could have offered. I allowed fear to stand in the way of helping a close fellow worker. In the present lifetime, we voluntarily worked together on private projects, while attempting to ignore the friction between us. My guilt led me to be overly solicitous, while my friend reacted with anger. This relationship has yet to be resolved, partly out of lack of understanding the dynamics involved from previous incarnations.  Instead, we allowed it to blow up and have not seen each other in years.  At some point in time, we will have to resolve the issues involved.

3. Meeting a part of myself in the form of another student at college, and in a little girl. Each soul has 144 fragments (at this point I don’t know how to verify this, but have read it numerous times). I spent two years of college with this student “part of myself” and never spoke to her … would actually change my path in order to avoid having to speak. At the time I knew nothing of reincarnation or parallel lives and the feeling that a part of myself was walking around on campus was more than I knew how to handle.

Very recently, I stood in line at a cashier’s post and looked down to see a little girl standing close by, looking up at me. I knew in a glance that she was a part of me—a soul fragment.

As we prepare for ascension and full consciousness, we will be re-uniting with our 144 soul fragments in a form I do not yet understand. We also must work out at least 51% of our karma, so be assured, we will meet—or already have met—those persons with whom we have karma to be released.

As this process speeds up, I am feeling it get very intense. At the same time, I am finding that we are re-uniting with soul family members with whom we will move forward into the Golden Age. These reunions, so far anyway, have been very pleasant.

Simply stated: things are getting intense on a personal level as we move through the kaleidoscope of our eternal lives in preparation for greater things to come!

REASONABLE SOUNDING LAWS CAN HAVE DEVASTATING PERSONAL IMPACT

We live in extremely chaotic times during which our world is being transformed, even if that transformation is not evident within the news.  It is a time during which each one of us needs to discern how to walk the Way of Love.

We may get caught up in supporting one facet of the political arena that sounds reasonable on the surface, but forget to consider what happens to human beings when that policy is implemented..   If we choose to walk the Way of Love, we must also choose to think in terms of every member of our planetary society.  In Truth, we are One Planetary Family.

I share with you the following videos as illustrations.   Laws that sound practical on the written page can end up being extremely destructive when implemented in daily lives.

Living with a balanced budget is a good thing.  But how we go about balancing that budget determines whether or not we walk the Way of Love or the path of destruction.

AMERICA–HE’S YOUR PRESIDENT FOR GOODNESS SAKE! BY WILLIAM THOMAS

Bill Thomas: America – He’s Your President for Goodness Sake!

Not to be confused with Will Thomas, the investigative reporter. At last people are beginning to rally around Obama, even if Thomas is a Canadian – and from Vancouver too!  Thanks to Kasia. Taken from Steve Beckow’s Blog:  http://stevebeckow.com/2010/11/06/bill-thomas-america-hes-your-president-for-goodness-sake/

AMERICANS:  I am posting this article by William Thomas and following it with my blog entitled “America & The Power of Twelve Plus One.”  I ask that you compare the way we are seen by the world—as illustrated in William’s article—with the example we could present to the world IF we attuned to the divine plan for America—as illustrated in “America & The Power of Twelve Plus One.’  –Nancy Detweiler

America – He’s your President for Goodness Sake!

By William Thomas, October 1st, 2010, http://tinyurl.com/2u7jokf

There was a time not so long ago when Americans, regardless of their political stripes, rallied round their president. Once elected, the man who won the White House was no longer viewed as a Republican or Democrat, but the President of the United States. The oath of office was taken, the wagons were circled around the country’s borders and it was America versus the rest of the world with the president of all the people at the helm.

Suddenly President Barack Obama, with the potential to become an exceptional president has become the glaring exception to that unwritten, patriotic rule.

Four days before President Obama’s inauguration, before he officially took charge of the American government, Rush Limbaugh boasted publicly that he hoped the president would fail. Of course, when the president fails the country flounders. Wishing harm upon your country in order to further your own narrow political views is selfish, sinister and a tad treasonous as well.

Subsequently, during his State of the Union address, which is pretty much a pep rally for America, an unknown congressional representative from South Carolina, later identified as Joe Wilson, stopped the show when he called the President of the United States a liar. The president showed great restraint in ignoring this unprecedented insult and carried on with his speech. Speaker Nancy Pelosi was so stunned by the slur, she forgot to jump to her feet while clapping wildly, 30 or 40 times after that.

Last spring, President Obama took his wife Michelle to see a play in New York City and republicans attacked him over the cost of security for the excursion. The president can’t take his wife out to dinner and a show without being scrutinized by the political opposition? As history has proven, a president in a theatre without adequate security is a tragically bad idea.

Remember: “Apart from that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you enjoy the play?”

At some point, the treatment of President Obama went from offensive to ugly and then to downright dangerous.

The health-care debate, which looked more like extreme fighting in a mud pit than a national dialogue, revealed a very vulgar side of America. President Obama’s face appeared on protest signs white-faced and blood-mouthed in a satanic clown image. In other tasteless portrayals, people who disagreed with his position distorted his face to look like Hitler complete with mustache and swastika.

Odd, that burning the flag makes Americans crazy, but depicting the president as a clown and a maniacal fascist is accepted as part of the new rude America. Maligning the image of the leader of the free world is one thing, putting the president’s life in peril is quite another. More than once, men with guns were videotaped at the health-care rallies where the president spoke. Again, history shows that letting men with guns get within range of a president has not served America well in the past. And still the “birthers” are out there claiming Barack Obama was not born in the United States, although public documentation proves otherwise. Hawaii is definitely part of the United States, but the Panama Canal Zone where his electoral opponent Senator John McCain was born? Nobody’s sure.

Last month, a 44-year-old woman in Buffalo was quite taken by President Obama when she met him in a chicken wing restaurant called Duff’s. Did she say something about a pleasure and an honour to meet the man or utter encouraging words for the difficult job he is doing? No. Quote: “You’re a hottie with a smokin’ little body.” Lady, that was the President of the United States you were addressing, not one of the Jonas Brothers! He’s your president for goodness sake, not the guy driving the Zamboni at “Monster Trucks On Ice.” Maybe next it’ll be, “Take Your President To A Topless Bar Day.”

In President Barack Obama, Americans have a charismatic leader with a good and honest heart. Unlike his predecessor, he’s a very intelligent leader. And unlike that president’s predecessor, he’s a highly moral man.

In President Obama, Americans have the real deal, the whole package and a leader that citizens of almost every country around the world look to with great envy. Given the opportunity, Canadians would trade our leader, hell, most of our leaders for Obama in a heartbeat. What America has in Obama is a head of state with vitality and insight and youth. Think about it, Barack Obama is a young Nelson Mandela. Mandela was the face of change and charity for all of Africa but he was too old to make it happen. The great things Obama might do for America and the world could go on for decades after he’s out of office.

America, you know not what you have. The man is being challenged unfairly, characterized with vulgarity and treated with the kind of deep disrespect to which no previous president was subjected. It’s like the day after electing the first black man to be president, thereby electrifying the world with hope and joy, Americans sobered up and decided the bad old days were better.

President Obama may fail but it will not be a Richard Nixon default fraught with larceny and lies. President Obama, given a fair chance, will surely succeed but his triumph will never come with a Bill Clinton caveat – “if only he’d got control of that zipper.”

Please America, give the man a fair, fighting chance. This incivility toward the leader who won over Americans and gave hope to billions of people around the world that their lives could be enhanced by his example, just naturally has to stop.

Believe me, when Americans drive by the White House and see a sign on the lawn that reads: “No shirt. No shoes. No service,” they’ll realize this new national rudeness has gone way, way too far.

AMERICA & THE POWER OF TWELVE PLUS ONE

AMERICA & THE POWER OF TWELVE PLUS ONE

Nancy B. Detweiler, M.Ed., M.Div.

God Painting the Zodiac

http://www.drturi.com/vaticanzodiac.php

NOTE:  I wrote this article a few days after 9/11.  Now, a few days after the November 2010 mid-term elections, it is once again extremely relevant.

The twelve tribes of Israel … Jesus’ twelve disciples … the twelve powers of humanity … the twelve zodiac signs.  The significance of the number vibration “twelve” is evident throughout the Bible and cosmos.  It is indicative of the twelve avenues through which the Soul makes its pilgrimage and offers the service that leads to the birth of the Christ Consciousness within each of us—the consciousness anointed with the energy of Divine Love.  According to Corinne Heline, who based her teachings on those of Pythagoras, twelve forces encircling the One and thereby forming a Unity, vibrates to 13.  Within this formula of 13 lies the secret of plenty, peace, and empowerment for all of humankind.  Within this holy vibration of 13, all things are possible.

America stands within this vibration of 13.  According to Heline, in her “Sacred Science of Numbers,” America’s destiny is based on the number vibration of 13.  The Seal of the United States of America exhibits repeated use of 13.  The designers of the Seal were knowledgeable of cosmic law.

With a destiny number of 13, America’s mission is wrought with responsibility.  Resonating to the choices we make, the energies involved in the number 13 will manifest as “death through failure and degeneration”—or—the attainment of regeneration as a nation of enlightened democracy living in a world of peace and goodwill for all.  There are no halfway measures with the number 13.  The vibration of 13 demands all or nothing.

America was created by our Founding Fathers in response to a high calling—a call from the Ascended Masters in compliance with the overall Divine Plan for Earth humans.  The Ascended Master St. Germain worked closely with the Founding Fathers, assisting in the preparation of what was to be a shining example of an enlightened democracy.  America, under the vibration of 13, is to inaugurate fresh beginnings for all inhabitants on this planet.

On this 4^th day of November 2010 (as on the 15^th day of September 2001), America stands at a crossroads.  Once more, the entire world is watching … waiting.  Which way will we go?  Will we take the path of additional death and destruction—or—will we accept our destiny as a nation of 13 and set an example of enlightenment for our planet?

Every American represents 1 of the 12.  Will we together encircle the One God and create a Unity of 13, with the power to do all things, including re-creating our world into one of peace and justice for all?  Or, will we add to the destruction already rampant on our planet?

As 1 of the 12, every American has a role to play—a role that is unique and in accordance with the zodiac energy in which his/her Soul is incarnated.  Each of the zodiac energies signifies a major thread in the tapestry of our nation.  The zodiac energies do not differentiate between race, religion, political party, or economic status.  All parts are equally vital within the whole of the tapestry.  Even though all 12 zodiac energies seek to express according to their unique qualities, we are to come together as the 12 in Unity with the One.  In order to do so, we must know and appreciate the energies involved.  We must leave no one out.  We must remember that it is from the ashes of sorrow and pain that we may arise into newness of life.  America has an unprecedented opportunity to rise from the ashes and to transform our nation and world by the choices we make at this very moment.

As 1 of the 12, every American must re-evaluate our present cry for retaliation and punishment.  Presently, we are choosing the path of destruction.  Violence begets violence.  We must re-consider and notify our national leaders that we choose to be 1 of the 12 in the circle of Unity with the One God.

Let us rise from the ashes and assume our role in the re-creation of our nation and planet.  Let us understand and honor the unique qualities of each of the 12 zodiac energies.  Because we are a nation and planet of 12, our reactions will vary.  We feel the urge toward active, physical participation with varying degrees of intensity.  All of the 12 are needed.

I list below the characteristics of each zodiac sign that are most needed during this crucial point in the assumption of our national destiny of 13—to work as the 12 in unity with the One.  According to the extent the zodiac energy is represented in the natal chart, we may witness the strength and goodness of these characteristics within each of the 12.

ARIES:  although Aries will tend to react initially with the desire to “fight back,” this energy may be transformed by asserting self in positive ways that inspire and lead others to something better.  Aries can lead in ways that pioneer into new vistas of life and that lead us into an expansion of possibilities.

TAURUS:  although Taurus will resist change, its fixed quality and groundedness to the Earth play a positive role in the life of our nation.  Taurus offers the stability needed in the face of tremendous change.  Taurus can lead the way in adopting new values, especially as these values relate to money and material possessions.

GEMINI:  although Gemini can lack definitive direction, its conscious awareness of duality can offer valuable insights pertaining to all sides.  Gemini is a channel for the 2^nd Ray of Love/Wisdom.  Gemini can hold the energy of love and provide intuitive insights, while the more practical zodiac energies work to express this Love/Wisdom in concrete ways within our nation and world.

CANCER:  although Cancer will tend to be overly attached to the individual family unit, its urge toward nurturing others can manifest thru very creative avenues of expression.  Cancer can become the Universal Parent, with talent for bringing forth the creativity of others.  Cancer possesses an excellent sense of business and can easily discern the needs of the public.

It is important to know that America’s zodiac sign is Cancer.  Thus, its destiny reflects the characteristics of Cancer energy.  America’s destiny is to nurture every citizen into his/her unique avenue of creative expression.  America’s destiny is to be a Universal Parent.

LEO:  although Leo may view the world in terms of self, it is one of the political energies that also carries an outstanding talent for leadership.  As Leo learns to think of others, it can easily assume the leadership of service-oriented groups or organizations.  Leo’s optimism and flair for the dramatic can add spice to life.  Leo shares eagerly the Sun’s warmth and generosity.

VIRGO:  although Virgo will lean toward perfectionism and being overly critical, its talent for details serves well in organizing projects, documents, and research.  Virgo is the primary channel for the 2nd Ray of Love/Wisdom.  With its earthy practicality, Virgo is skilled in serving others via expressing Love/Wisdom in tangible forms.  Virgo will often be the follower who serves well the leader of an organization.

LIBRA:  although Libra will tend to hide its unique identity behind that of others, it is talented in diplomacy.  A Libra who also carries the Leo influence will possess excellent skills in politics.  Libra’s need for balance between opposites allows it to perceive the dynamics of all sides of an issue.  Libra is socially adept and can be counted on to add a sense of refinement and culture to any event.

SCORPIO:  although Scorpio’s initial reaction will be to fight and seek victory over all adversaries, it can be counted on for an in-depth perception into the behavior of others.  Scorpio’s energy is that of transformation and regeneration.  Scorpio is the primary channel of the highly artistic 4^th Ray of Harmony thru Conflict.  Scorpio is capable of tremendous self-sacrifice.  With the word “sacrifice” coming from the Latin root word meaning “to make holy,” Scorpio is capable of extraordinary transformation of the lower into the higher.

SAGITTARIUS:  although Sagittarius may procrastinate and want to be in control, it possesses an innate sense of the Spirit within all things.  Sagittarius aspires to lofty heights of pure ideas and wisdom.  It is the minister and teacher of humankind.  Sagittarius offers, to all nationalities, its optimism and its ability to inspire others to greater heights.  Once Sagittarius knows the Good, it can easily lead others into the Truth of All Good.

CAPRICORN:  although Capricorn may be overly concerned with personal prestige and gaining the respect of others, it is the Builder of Form.  Capricorn is at home with structuring building blocks or ideas into a meaningful whole.  It is a natural administrator of large corporations, with an innate sense of the type organization needed to stimulate the greatest benefits.  Capricorn can be the Universal Father, while its polarity (Cancer) can be the Universal Mother.  Capricorn can provide the structure needed; Cancer can provide the nurturance needed to allow all to unfold according to their fullest potential.

AQUARIUS:  although Aquarius can be overly persistent in propagating its own ideas, it is also a very intuitive, inventive energy.  Aquarius seeks to provide the water that quenches the thirst of humankind.  It is universally oriented, impersonal energy that seeks to provide on a large scale.  Its goal is a better world for all of humanity.  Aquarius thinks outside the box and can be counted on to provide innovative solutions to the problems of humanity.

PISCES:  although tempted to hide its talents in substance abuse, Pisces is extremely sensitive, creative energy with a love of drama.  Pisces is the energy of selfless service to others.  It is mystical, with a direct link to the invisible realms of existence.  Music and healing talents are usually present.  The high calling of Pisces is to be Servant Savior of the World.  Mother Theresa was Pisces.

**************************

As you study the 12 zodiac energies, visualize Americans—representing each sign—standing hand-in-hand in a circle, with the One standing in the center.  Note the 12 avenues of service, all focused upon serving the One God.  Feel the unity … the beauty … the variety … the peace of this Circle of 13 ……………

Would you not much rather experience the coming years within this Circle of 13 than within the destruction that responding to violence with violence will cause?

All that the world needs may be found within the planetary Circle of 13.  All of the talents and skills needed to re-create a world, without terrorists and political bickering, exists within this Planetary Circle of 13.  Violence will shatter this Circle of Unity.  Our beautiful planet will be marred with even more devastation.

****************************

America, the nation whose destiny vibration is 13, must choose.  Will we stand within a loving Circle of 13—or—will we wreak havoc on our planet?  Will America fulfill its role in the Divine Plan for Earth humans—or—will we choose death and destruction instead?

Please contact our president and congressional representatives and let them know you choose to stand within America’s highest destiny:  as a member of the loving Circle of 13 … as a member of an enlightened democracy … as a citizen of our world and galaxy, abiding in peace and justice for all.

Within the power of this sacred 13, all the forces for Good within the cosmos are available to America.

May God bless America with the courage to stand within the Circle of 13!
