AT PRESENT, WE FIND OURSELVES in deep in the
"Second Trimester" of Gestation for the Planetary
Oneself, as mentioned in part one of this series. This level
of process is called Recognition
of Shadow. And there is probably no better example of that
than what is happening to our Mass
Consensus in the United States at this time regarding the
Bush Administration.
For
many, George W. Bush has played out the role of "Devil"
since the beginning of his Presidency. For others, he started
out as an Avenging Angel, and then tripped up somewhere along
the way. And yes, there are also those who still hold him as
true and right - the one voice of reason and clarity in an ever-disintegrating
world. Which opinion is right? Which Bush is the "real"
Bush?
They all are. We are no longer living in a single universe,
trapped by adherence to linear continuity and flow. We are now
Citizens
of Multi-D (Multidimensionality).
Each face we look upon is a multi-faceted jewel, an angular
mirror, in which we can view many other faces. And you know
what? Every face we view is our own. This is the message of
our Second Trimester (2004-2008).
We don't see the world as it is. We see the world as we
are.
- Anais Nin
Since its birth, the United States of America has been all about
free speech and open protest against unworthy authority. We
didn't like the price of tea way back when, so we threw it in
Boston Harbor, giving Britain an unforgettable message. If we
don't like our current government, we have the right to "alter
or abolish it." So say the founding documents of this country.
Why, then, has all this (supposed) "corruption" been allowed
to continue? Why, in the presence of outrageous circumstances,
such as were present in the 1960s, have the American people
met the situation with such an appearance of ambivalence?
It is because the name of the game this time around is NOT revolution.
It's evolution. And even though our current Government Officials
are re-living many of their "foibles" of
days gone by (naughty rascals), we're not wasting much energy
marching about it or working overtime to "throw the Devils
out" (well, some are, but the numbers are comparatively
low this time around). Instead, a growing number of individuals
are choosing to go within, invoking a whole new technology
to invoke change. Let's discuss that Technology a little bit,
shall we?
The Basics of Oneness
In one of their opening
transmissions to us, the Reconnections
described, in detail, a shift of attitudes that has been happening
on our planet since the Harmonic Convergence, in 1987. It is
called The
Reconnection to Oneness. Here are some key ideas from that
early message (circa 1992):
Now is the time. Everything is in motion, and you are now
quite busy about the task of shaking off self-appointed shackles
of forgetfulness and limitation. As you work inwardly, you remember.
As you remember, you realize. And as you realize, you become.
It is just that simple. Many of you are deep in the throes of
eleventh hour consternation and despair, feeling that your time
of expansion to completion will never arrive. We absolutely
assure you that it will. You are so much more than you think
you are!
To fully comprehend what we are saying, it is most important
that you begin to look at everything you previously considered
"self" and
realize that the totality of that represents only a tiny portion
of you - a little piece of Infinity that was "chipped
off" to enter this World of Form. That "fragment"
was programmed and sealed tight against the knowledge of the
rest of who you are by what has been termed the "Veil
of Forgetfulness." However, this miniature replica still
retained all of the basic attributes of your essence as creator.
Like a monitored culture in a huge petrie dish, you grew and
multiplied as you always have and always will - but in a defined
and limited space. All the while, you remained unaware that
there existed anything more of self than could be seen around
you in the dish.
It
has been revealed that the Eternal Creator has fashioned the
work of His hands "in His own Image." Realize now
that the universe of your perception: the people, places,
objects, and interactive processes once thought of as "containing
you--but still essentially separate" is nothing more
than a gigantic self-portrait, painted in continually expanding,
repetitive patterns in every direction into infinity. This
is so because, in order to perceive something, a person has
to interpret the images that are being fed to his brain. With
that interpretation, the observer becomes the creator of his
personal reality. The grid through which all images and information
passes is made entirely of each individual's unique vibratory
essence. Therefore, his reality always "looks like him.
What
we might infer, reading the above passage, is simply this: Each
of us is creator of our own Universe. (Uni=One). In that perceptual
context, there is only ONE of us here. One,
who has been fragmented into however many "game pieces"
are needed to illustrate a point, or to comprehend a message
from within. In a sense, each person's perceived world is a
huge Rohrschach
Test. What you pass judgment upon here tells us more about
YOU than about the person you are describing. So come, friends
look deep into the mirror. Tell us what you see.
Shadow Dancing and World Politics
The Reconnections have made no bones about how they feel about
the subject of politics. They feel that it is contrived, unnatural,
and, ultimately, an enemy of all true expression and connection.
From:
The
Politics of Oneness
Through Politics, you create a space called "society,"
where you form an agreement with them - that you will all subjugate
your spontaneous, authentic, in-the-moment choices and behavior
to a pre-established protocol of expression (or repression)
- to the desired end that you may live (peacefully, if possible)
within a pre-fabricated, postured environment that looks good,
sounds good, but inevitably ends up feeling quite empty and
sad.
Yes,
indeed. Not a favorable impression, to be sure. And things get
really exciting when politicians and world leaders start projecting
shadows upon each other, demonizing their opposing forces so
that they can justify doing things that no sane person would
ever do, and still be able to sleep at night.
Remember
when George Bush, Sr., was referred to, by many Mullahs, as
"The Great Satan"? Shadows were certainly flying with
that one. Such a representation can recruit a whole carload
of suicide bombers! Actually, those shadows are still flying
today. The title has simply been transferred from father to
son. And not to be outdone, Bush, Jr. rang some bells when he
gave his famous "Axis
of Evil" speech, just before the Iraqi War. If you
call us names, we'll call you names.
There will always be "sides" and struggles. It
is the nature of things.
The Montagues have been warring with the Capulets all across
time.
Different names, different faces - the same numbed-out hearts.
Now is Mercutio slain. Tomorrow the sword will be chasing Tybalt.
And all have become "fortune's fool."
-
The Reconnections
What we dare not look at, within ourselves, we tend to project
out onto others. That's the nature of shadow. The light (of
awareness) shines from behind us, and seeks to project itself
on the wall. But something (solidified) stands between the light
and the wall. Its outline is what forms the shadow. What makes
things solidify is our resistance. And resistance plays a huge
role in the development of 3D reality. That concept is well-illustrated
in the Recon Transmission called How
Universes Are Formed.
The physical world is our mirror, showing us all those aspects
of character and spirit that we need to recognize and embrace
as viable parts of who we all are. The more divergent certain
elements appear to be, the more likely they are to dance with
each other in a state of conflict. We, as Bridge
People for the process of Ascension and Planetary Transformation,
have a unique opportunity. If we choose, we can become a matrix
for joining these divergent forces. We can take on both sides
of a conflict, and hold them in a space of Oneness until their
resistance stops. Can you imagine it? We're talking about holding
two cats in a bag. It takes a resilient soul to do this! And
our world is now filling with these types of souls.
Shadows in Everyday Life
Every person we see, every situation we encounter, every object
we touch can be metaphorically interpreted as a mirror for some
part of SELF. All
it takes is a little dab of Imagination, and a willingness to
stand in our expanded consciousness, rather than to hide in
a fragmented, encapsulated "miniature" of who we really
are. One clever Star Child in my world phrased it beautifully
this way: "The more an individual becomes collective, the
more his or her collective will present as ONE."
The Big Story exists to serve the small story (i.e. The One).
The more complex exists to serve the simpler - so long as the
"simple folk" are enlightened. In a sense, it could be said
that everything and everyone is bending over backwards to give
an accurate reflection of who you are, at all levels. Please
don't miss the message, or their whole existence (here, in your
universe) will have been wasted. In each of their own universes
they, too, have messages to integrate, and perhaps YOU will
wear the reflection there. It's an agreement. A Soul Contract.
A stage show, with many performers and many eyes to watch the
performance unfold. But there is still only ONE of us here.
Our small story relationships show us the specifics. And, our
cities, states, provinces, and countries fill in the Big Story
blanks. As humanity begins to integrate the wisdom of owning
the shadow, we will all learn how to read our physical "game
board" like a Tarot Deck. When
shadows are named and reclaimed, they become appendages for
the Expanded Self. Control becomes a moot point. But right now,
in this moment on Earth, control still seems like an option.
So people are clamoring to get it. Because a goodly amount of
humanity refuses to "wake up" and reconnect, there
are continued War Games going on, at every level of society.
And yet, even this has a degree of perfection to it. Though
our spoken intent is "control and conquer," what really
seems to be happening is a mass release of nervous energy and
anxiety. In one article I wrote, right after the beginning of
the Iraqi War, I used these words to describe the demeanor of
our world leaders:
What we are upset about is NOT what is bothering us! It is
only a mere shadow of what is going on. I am not suggesting
this in order to deny reality, per se. What I am denying is
this tiny "shell" of reality, stuffed with a lie,
being served to us as the cause for what we feel.
Our
planet teeters on the brink of a major paradigm shift. We're
not just talking about a crumbling of the American Dream,
or the collapse of financial markets, or even the start of
World War III. It's much bigger even than that. It borders
on a shift so profound, that we just might find Isaac Newton
dropping his famous apple, only to find that it "falls"
UP this time!
Such an "adjustment" in our reality is so unthinkable,
so unnerving, that most folks wish not to even address it.
We're talking about a total re-arrangement of religion as
we know it, the arrival of time/no-time (4D Access and Integration),
hard evidence about ETs, as
well as documented records of Earth's long-standing dealings
with them, instant cures for diseases we thought would dog
us for 20 or 30 more years, and Inter-Dimensional Communication
and Transport. And that is just the beginning. We are not
ready to hear it, and most of us are earnestly trying to close
our ears to what is coming in them.
But
even that isn't an option. The vibratory patterns of the planet
are so high, that any attempt at denial of the imminence of
change could produce the equivalent of a 'stroke' in the Mass
Mind.
Therefore, perhaps subconsciously, perhaps intuitively, to
let off steam the "controlling factors" of this
planet, have begun orchestrating a huge ruckus, a diversion
of sorts ... something that is fearsome and which seems futile,
yet which still resembles a category of experience that we
can comprehend and get fired up about. And, yes! Blood pressures
are rising! And yes, armies are gathering in many places of
the world. But then what?
This
is what we all have to work out. It's more a matter of personal
choice than many realize. We are all creating this from within.
This is the place where brilliant minds must begin to focus
'outside the box', and notice major forces for change that
are beginning to move into position. We're not just talking
about Weapons of Mass Destruction. We're talking about the
elimination of "mass" altogether in order to make
way for something else - some new way of being. I suspect
it shall be an abbreviation of sorts, which happens on a very
wide scale. Our Planetary Tale, which once took a whole book
to tell, is about to be reduced to 2500 words or less. Which
words would YOU choose to keep?
There
are a number of effective ways to recognize and reclaim shadow,
individually and collectively. Practicing these attitudes has
the potential of doing more to help "Global Warming" than all
the Eco-Projects ever imagined. And it will do more to resolve
"Global Terror" than any pre-emptive invasion we could ever
fund. We will deal more with that next article. Have a great
month.
