Information for a Time of Change.
The recent death of Princess Diana is an important signal
to all souls on the planet, which explains the amazing worldwide
outpouring of emotion. Much like the starting shot at the onset
of a race, this signifies many things: a transition point in planetary
energies, a cue for massive synchronized action from lightworkers,
a sign to initiate the next phase for many lifeplans. This is
the indication that the overture is now complete, the curtain
is raised and the show is underway!
Like an intricate puzzle, there are many tiers of meaning
layered within Diana's life which provide countless mirrors for
others to see themselves in her. Many archetypes from various
folk tales and mythologies were at work in her life. Her sudden
death is the harbinger of transformation, a trumpeted fanfare
alerting all to take their appointed places. For this reason,
many souls are making swift, drastic changes at this time - some
in a panic because they are not where they need to be - while
for others, this event was the cue to move into the next phase.
For instance, it was Mother Theresa's completion signal, a cue
for her to leave for some well-earned rest. Do not be shocked
by the changes of upcoming months. Your planet is the most fascinating
place to be in the entire Universe right now! Planetary energies
are primed like never before to facilitate powerful and smooth
manifestation of your desires. And so, let us delve deeper into
the process of manifesting:
Step 1: Desire something. By "desire" we mean
what your heart/soul wants to draw into your experience. The more
intensely your desire, the more "juice" you put into
your work order. Desire a final outcome without concern for how
it happens. Allay concerns about your desire coming through something
negative by adding the phrase "with harmony." TIP: The
deeper your desire, the easier to receive it.
Step 2: Visualize the outcome - particularly the sensation
of it. Vividly imagine your emotions when the desired outcome
arrives, and you create that outcome in your future reality. In
another sense, you are choosing the reality where that event occurs.
If you're unsure of precisely what you want, imagine yourself
in the future feeling the sensation you desire (joy, happiness,
fulfillment, etc.) without knowing the specific source of the
emotion. Emotion is the significant aspect of your visualization,
what you telegraph to the Universe as your desire. TIP: Emotion
is the fuel that speeds fulfilled creations to you.
Step 3: Release, detach from outcome, open your palm to
receive. Allow the Universe do its work without interference from
you - often the most difficult aspect of the manifesting process.
Specific action may be part of the process (just to help you believe!),
but effort and struggle are not required. The Universe does as
much of the work as you allow. Many of you are like small children
who want to "do it themselves," however. During this
stage, seek to be emotionally calm, mentally quiet, and alert
to flashes of intuition. At best, this can be a hushed and tranquil
time of serene expectancy, much like an enjoyable pregnancy. TIP:
It's easiest to place a gift in an open palm, so loosen your clenched
fists.
Step 4: Notice the onset of tension which heralds the creation's
arrival. Near the end of a pregnancy, expectant mothers often
begin to wonder if "this baby is ever going to arrive!"
Realize the onset of tension signals the end is near, but seek
a pleasant tension rather than a disagreeable state. To avoid
"uncreating" what you desire (by reacting negatively
to the tension), focus on the fertile space created for your creation
- much like standing in the decorated nursery all ready for the
baby you know is coming. Look at your life and notice what aspects
are empty spaces waiting to be filled by incoming manifested desires.
TIP: Use tension to monitor the proximity of an approaching "birth"
and transform the tension to happy anticipation.
Step 5: Watch and savor as your creation appears. Open
your eyes and emotions to the unfolding events that bring your
desire to you. Be alert and conscious of what swirls around you.
This is the arrival -- the big event. Enjoy it! TIP: After hours
of cooking, relish the textures, smells and taste of your work.
Sounds fairly easy, right? You may wonder how you've managed
to manifest less than your full wish list. The missing piece for
most people is belief (AKA: trust, faith, assurance, conviction,
certainty, expectation). Lack of belief can dissolve potentials
right before your very eyes! During Step 2, use any active manifesting
method that makes it vividly true for you: an energy circle, written
affirmations, any of a thousand ways. Choose any method that energizes
you, that makes your desired outcome feel tangible to you.
Please realize that you cannot fake this feeling. You must
take action, behaving in ways that lead to an honest sensation
of real-ness. Hopeful bravado will not do the trick. You must
believe down to your toes. BELIEVE, BELIEVE, BELIEVE! Why do you
not doubt that the sun will rise tomorrow? Or that your young
child will get taller over the next year? Find that level of belief
for your creations.
Another difficult area is timing. Getting what you want
is one thing, getting it quickly is something else. Earth's energy
includes a time-lag to protect you from instantly manifesting
what you fear. New planetary energies have greatly shortened this
time-lag; it can work almost instantaneously if you let it. Expect
things to take a long time, and they will! Move up those delivery
dates! Observe your tension levels to monitor progress, and allow
your inner guidance to give you some sense of the timing at work.
Manifesting is not something to learn, it is something
to practice with greater skill and precision. Realize that you
already know this. You have centuries of experience at manifesting.
Notice how well you are doing at it even if what you are manifesting
is what you fear rather than what you want. When you give up being
a victim and realize your life is what you created, you will suddenly
know the power of your consciousness; that the potency to create
is yours! You may choose to create solutions or problems! Your
choice, of course.
At this instant, the most powerful action you can take
is this: Decide what you want. Decide it today. Think it, write
it, pray it, draw it, visualize it - make it real in any way you
can. Diana has provided the signal, and NOW is the time!
