A gentle touch can do more to change things
than forceful thrashing at appearances. A
surgeon’s steady hand, loving care, and
peace will heal what violence has harmed.
Strive to understand the power inherent in
love as you incise the surface of reality
now. Cut through impressions, discard what
cannot stand the illumination of a formidable,
focused mind. What falls away uncovers the
path intent has followed when your feet went
astray. Now, open to the immeasurable force
available when you plug into the unmitigated
joy of essential being, and let love’s secret
power alchemize belief into a living reality.
Rather than try to be everything to everyone,
how about being fully present for yourself
for a change? You may have been diligently
pursuing doing just that, to your merit. Now,
stop and assess the situation you’re currently
in. Are you tired of pursuing yourself yet?
Have you realized that you are exactly where
you’re standing, or sitting, or perhaps
resting? We have been advising this latter
approach to dealing with reality, from a mindful
perspective. Resting is still doing. Being
is doing. To hold the awareness, the intent,
to be fully present is doing the highest and
most noble service to your soul in the face
of things. What you see in front of you is
what it is. What remains behind you yet to
do will sort itself out, if you will allow
it to. The energy of the moment cannot hold
forever. At some point, it will break. There
is no need for you to break along with it,
but if you sense something is about to give,
by all means give yourself over to the experience
of metamorphosis. Like situational dynamics,
what is in a holding pattern will naturally
seek to rearrange itself according to prevailing
intelligence. The unseen governs the seen.
When what has long been unseen, misunderstood,
hidden presents itself to the light of day,
what then? Expansion. A quantum leap in experiencing
what is. There’s no need for you to bash
through a shell that’s following a natural
course of disintegration. Easy does it, just
as well if not better than blunt force. That
is, love wins the day.
If you’re going to be fully present for
yourself, you will need to look at what’s
happening. Behind the surface-level maelstrom
of events and movements is the stuff of dreams.
Within the codes that lurk in that background
level is the instruction manual. If most of
it is irrelevant at this point, still something
is worth retrieving from it. You will find
as a caveat written in bold letters, “Nothing
is as it seems and all situations are subject
to change. This includes your own position
at any coordinate point in space and time.”
With that alert safely tucked in the hem of
your skirt, you can get to the business of
clearing out the irrelevancies. A few, you
can knock out right away. Anything that stands
between you and your truth is fair game in
the hunt for misconstructions of energy. What
does not hold the fundamental identification
with that goal you seek will simply cease
to be. What only partially aligns with where
you’re heading (assuming you are yourself
aligned with your soul’s goal and divine
intention) will yield. What appears after
all that is assessed will likely be the path
homeward, to a fully assembled and well-functioning
being. The gathering is underway and you are
called to remember who you are. All the aspects
of you are on alert. Celebrate what you’ve
managed to achieve so far in terms of your
selfhood, and set your sights on things coming
into order. What you’ve been waiting for
is on the cusp of emerging, as are you. Eyes
and heart open, you’ll get what you need.
With clarity comes power. All distractions
and internal mayhem discarded, you’re left
with the singularity of being. It’s yours
for the taking, with a full array of know-how
and implements for applying yourself to the
opportunity revealing itself. In fact, it’s
always been there, obscured by the stories
you’ve told yourself and the untruths given
as verifiable fact. Remember that you are
now where you have always been, that circumstance
merely casts the illusion of matrix-based
geometries upon your outlook and conditions
your mind to interpret input as unchanging
law. You can suss out the essential thing
from the infinite variations playing out.
You have that innate power of truth-knowing
fully activated. Take off the mask that hides
your true self from the world, and open wide
the cloaks by which you have hidden your magnificence.
This is the moment of your emergence into
ownership of that which you have always intended
to be. It is now that the various timelines
you play on merge into a moment of great significance.
Are you ready for that? Have you never not
been? You have been in miscellaneous states
of preparedness, yes, but ready you are. Stay
focused on the zero point between thoughts
divergent and attractive. Let unadulterated
joy be your beacon and the signature of your
choices. Know this, feel this, and reach through
it. Dare to poke at what looks like a dream.
The reality within it may be more real than
you dare believe.
This week's contemplation from the pages of
"Opalescence":
“Close to last on your list of love’s
attributes are darkness, fury, and violence.
But sadistic too are your carnal drives, operating
deep beneath calmer, more civilized masks
of clay. Choose to acknowledge your nasty
parts and you will see other beings with greater
compassion. Choose to forget them and you
will only bring them greater power to do creative
damage. What you choose determines what you
create with the energies at your command.”
