THERE WAS SO MUCH going on in March regarding shifts and planetary alignments, it was difficult to keep up! I felt as though I needed to write an energy alert every other day! Along with the energies and purposes that the eclipses and equinox brought us, we also experienced unusual and regular blasts of energy that kept us reeling.

March 16th brought in one of these monumental blasts of higher energy, and there will be many to follow before we reach the solstice on June 21. Here is what is occurring with these intermittent surges: we are bumping up in vibration most intensely from now until the summer months. With each surge of energy, the vibration of the planet - and ourselves - will be raised until the vibration culminates around July or so. June, July and August of last year were pivotal months, and these same months will be pivotal this year... for another reason and in another way.

The equinox and the solar eclipse in March ushered in more pieces for our individual clarity and more pieces to support the new beginning of our new purposes. The lunar eclipse brought us into our shadows for clearing and more clarity. You may have experienced a day of self-loathing or been smack in the middle of the energies of the parts of yourself that you aren't so wild about. "Everyone must hate me," you might have been feeling during this time. But, when we are "down" we are also offered the opportunity to really decide what is working for us and what is not. What needs to be cleared away in our lives?

Next, arrived one of the energy surges. Like a powerful laser beam, it hit the Earth and really rocked the energy. For me, I always experience extreme bloating, indigestion and a lot of intestinal activity as I am expanding and trying to integrate this energy. This was the most intense experience I have yet encountered. Then I lay awake all night. But these new surges that are occurring will be intermittent and brief... they are similar to supports arriving to hold up a new platform... and they are arriving one by one.

For some, the surges may leave you reeling. March 16th was one of these and the equinox was another. New alignments through energy shifts and celestial occurrences are magnifying at greater and greater levels as we vibrate higher and higher. You may feel like weeping all day at just about anything. When we feel like weeping, we are almost always experiencing an alignment process and a letting go. This is also because a stronger connection to Source is occurring. I am to the point, now, where I love the surges as I know something is happening. The lulls we experience where nothing is happening are my least favorite!

The first day or so that a new energy arrives always feels great. With these higher vibrating surges of energy that arrived in March, a greater clarity comes which is a wonderful opportunity to see what will be in store for each of us. They also bring in a unity and a feeling that things are being resolved. Then, immediately arrives the integration. The surges in March really pushed things around. You may have even felt traumatized for no apparent 3D reason.

If you are one of many who never felt they belonged here, or that nothing ever felt right or seemed to fit, you will really feel this now with the energy that these surges bring. Energy shifts nearly always bring in the old familiar "no sense of place" feeling. We are being knocked out of our grooves with these shifts. We don't want to get too comfortable in old energy or old ways or we will never make change! You may now feel like you don't belong anywhere, can't get comfortable anywhere, and feel generally out of sync. Mynon-physical star-being companion calls it "grossly out of sync with the outside reality." Notice he said "grossly!" So now we are vibrating much higher than our outside world.

This mismatch can create an intolerance to being in a store, for instance, and an inability to become involved in most conversations as they will make no sense to you. This is the store scenario: "Why are people blindly handing over money for services, like slaves to some monetary power? Have we forgotten how to create for ourselves instantly and in the palms of our hands?" Here is the conversation scenario: "Why are you all talking 'round and 'round and getting nowhere? Why aren't you being and doing in a straight shot of energy without the peripherals? Why are you discussing 'what is' and there-by creating much more of it? Why aren't you experiencing instead of discussing?"

Vibrating higher creates an intolerance and inability to be part of the old. At times this can create a hermit, but it is simply part of the process. The higher we vibrate, the more we will be forced to create on the outside what we are vibrating on the inside. The summer months will finally bring in all the changes in form. We are simply readying at this point.

During one of the energy surges on March 16th, I felt an immense magnetic pull from below my feet. Currently, we are basically spinning, as the Earth is experiencing a great shift and it is difficult to be on her. This can cause a scattered feeling and inability to concentrate and stay grounded. The magnetics are changing. I don't know much about the scientific aspects of this kind of thing, but this is what I am experiencing. A big shifting is occurring. The Earth is turning inside out, or basically beginning to vibrate rightside up in order to correct herself and maintain this alignment of a higher vibration.

As we have completed the last phase of detoxing and emptying out, we are now starting to fill up as well. Except for the days of the higher energy surges, I have been sleeping for 12 hours straight each night! Much is occurring in the night as we sleep in regard to a new integration and receiving of new information and new ways. We have arrived in a new place and are now "becoming" it.

For first wavers and the highly sensitive, these new changes are really rockin' and rollin' for us. First wavers have been at it the longest and are therefore more emptied out and ready to receive the new at higher levels. The new will be arriving for everyone, but it is relevant to where you are in your ascension process. First wavers are beyond tired and also, then, the most ready! Being tired and not caring is the perfect by-product that ascension produces to put us in an energy space of allowing, getting our egos out of the way, and receiving.

So here's the progression: solar eclipse and equinox energy will bring in more pieces to support our new roles. Mercury moving forward will assist. More energy surges will continue at various intervals providing rungs for the new palette. The summer will bring in the culmination of it all and we can begin creating in the physical a more higher vibrating reality.

Another important piece of news is relevant here as well... These energy shifts can really scatter everything, including friends, identities and our old roles and relationships with people and "things." Things will be coming back together again and this will begin at the end of March and especially in April. Gradually we will begin strengthening and connecting with "new" everything... people, places and projects. These new connections will perfectly match how we are now vibrating and what we will now be doing and creating. By the summer months, we will have unity with a whole new scenario.

So, what will April be about? April will be a breath of fresh air. Things will begin moving again, but gradually. From January until April, we were in a process of readying for a substantial amount of newer and highly vibrating reality to arrive. This was quite a process, and personally, I feel as though I have gone deeper than ever before. We are removing more and more ego.

Being at the depths of feeling like there was absolutely no energy around to support or move things for us, allowed us to really become clear about what was important in our lives. We needed to become clear about what we really wanted to create before the arrival of June. This was a very big step and process and an incredible time for true and higher alignment. Creating from the ego is not where it is at anymore - and we really don't know what it feels like to create from Source alone - but we are most certainly getting there. We need to be creating from our higher selves or from our souls. If we really, really want something, we are not there yet.

The ascension process creates such a feeling of not caring anymore as we are so weary... but this is right where we need to be. The process is perfection in that it gets us out of the way. We may not know how to leave our egos behind, but I love the ascension process as it does absolutely everything for us if only we go with it and allow it to work its magic.

April will bring in a new and shining light to a previously dark day. Small pieces will begin coming together to place us into positions so that we can be more ready for the big manifestations of the summer. I have to say - the summer will really be big. It will be a huge turning point, but we need to be a vibrating match for what we will receive before we receive it. If we are holding our breaths for the summer, this will not work. We need to be happy and contented right where we are. Waiting is never the answer. Being where we are, is!
