SPRING 2012: The Heart of 2012 Astrology

Late May/June 2012 is at the heart of the 2012 astrology with many powerful events. We have just experienced eclipses in Gemini and Sagittarius with the New Moon Solar Eclipse in 0 degrees Gemini on May 20. Venus is now retrograde and is actually retrograde the least of all the planets so this is special. Also, we’re building to the spectacular Venus transit on June 5/6. There won’t be another one of these Venus transits in our lifetime – until 2117 so that too is special.

This all leads up to the first exact square of Uranus and Pluto on June 24; the first of seven up to the year 2015 and part of the “cycle of revolution” I have written about previously. This cycle harks back in time to the mid 1960s which some of us remember as a time of global change and transformation. I say, we haven’t seen anything yet; this time 2012 is due to be even more transformational, difficult and exciting. It’s an exciting time; or a difficult one; or a transformative one – depending upon how each of us handles this. One thing is sure, in three years’ time we will not be the same people as we are today. And for most of us, this is a good thing.

When we have intense planetary events these reflect back and influence us intensely. It feels as if time is picking up speed and life is accelerating. We started to feel the beginnings of this time frame in 2008 when the Occupy movement first started and the global economy collapsed just as Pluto moved its slow journey into Capricorn. This is a long transit from 2008 right through 2024 and we’ve experienced only four years of it but already I think we can see some patterns emerging. Pluto has an intensity that works deeply yet inevitably, forcing us to change at the deepest level. Capricorn represents society and its structures – government, financial institutions, business and what we carry from the past. When Pluto enters Capricorn it seems transformation at a deep level and typically society’s structures resist this, entrenched as they are in the past patterns. One result of this clash we have seen is revolution – the individual (Uranus in Aries) versus the government (Pluto in Capricorn). Since these are both Cardinal signs – signs of action – there is also an urgency.

This can be a frightening time for those of us who are afraid to change; who prefer to hold on to rigid patterns of behavior and security. This is the time to let go of the past without forsaking the best of tradition. It’s time to attune to and go with this higher flow. The planets are there helping us in our evolution and growth if only we will make a certain surrender to their positive power in our lives.

Blessings,

So timely. Thank you Owen Waters of “Infinite Being” for this information.

Amma Magi

Left Behind
by Owen Waters

Last week, we asked the question, “What if some people simply don’t want to go through The Shift and leave their old lifestyle behind?” What if they prefer to stay immersed in “them against us” dramas or even “me against the world” dramas?

Humanity was created so that we can find our way back home to the source from which we originally came. God didn’t just create humanity and leave us to fend for ourselves. There is a cosmic plan for the enlightenment of humanity and, true to our gift of self-determination, no one is forced to progress any faster than they choose.

The Shift isn’t just about the planet Earth. Our planet, our solar system, and our section of the universe are about to make a quantum jump in frequency. There will come a mass ascension day when the Earth will rise in vibration and take with her all who are ready to function in heart-centered consciousness.

That is the requirement – ready for heart-centered consciousness – and, surprising to some, you don’t have to be religious or spiritual to make the grade! A caring person who supports others with little thought for themselves is a heart-centered person. A person who promotes ecology out of care for the Earth is also expressing unselfish, unconditional love when they don’t expect anything particular in return for their efforts and concerns.

On the scale of human consciousness, caring for others is so much bigger than working for personal gain.

There is no Judgment Day where God will look at you and make a decision. You make the decision and the process is automatic. If you’re ready when the big day comes, you will want to go with the inspiring, uplifting energies and nothing will hold you back.

Those, on the other hand, who prefer to stay in their present level of consciousness and decide against rising to the frequency of the ascended Earth will eventually need alternative accommodation. This section of the universe will no longer be available for the reincarnation of their frequency band of consciousness, so another world had to be found for their future use. This is not new information. In the early 1970’s, I became aware of information that came from the spiritual hierarchy about a new planet which, for that very purpose, was being prepared for human habitation.

The upcoming Shift of the ages was foreseen thousands of years ago by Jesus when he pointed out how it will be on that mass ascension day. When the time comes, he said, it will be as if two people are side-by-side and “one shall be taken and the other left behind.”

He actually saw people moving up into a higher realm of existence while those not ready would stay behind in their current realm of existence. The fishermen and farmers of his time weren’t ready to hear about how this would be practically achieved but, today, we are more able to wrap our heads around such concepts as parallel worlds.

You will exist in an ascended version of your physical world while those left behind will continue to exist in their version of the world. To them, their world will continue to be the same, but with a whole lot of people missing. To you, your world will be like it was, yet vibrating at a higher physical frequency; and, likewise, there’ll be a whole lot of people missing.

Consider this impending ascension to a lighter form as a major step in God’s cosmic plan for the enlightenment of humanity. Think of it as a harvest of souls, where everything you do to help others make it through The Shift will be forever enshrined in the records of life as golden acts of service to others.

This is the opportunity that spiritual souls have waited lifetimes to experience.

It doesn’t matter whether people shift into heart-centered consciousness while physically incarnate or, should they have passed on from this life, experience its parallel version in the afterlife. The point is to be ready and to help as many others as you can to make it through to the new heaven on earth.

Next week, we’ll see some glimpses into life on the ascended earth and on the new planet, as revealed by a research project where hundreds of people viewed their own future lives!

Feel free to forward this email to friends who will find it helpful and encourage them to sign up for the newsletter to hear more news about the upcoming mass ascension of The Shift.

AN EGYPTIAN LINK

Sunlight Network distributes information of interest. Here we share part of a message received on 27th April 2011: The Falcon and Crocodile Order for Healing Duality - Kom Ombo, Temple of Horus and Sobek, Egypt. Through Aluna Joy - March 16, 2011".

I also write a personal blog. Please click on "My Blog" for latest update.

Amma Magi

The following is the 6th message that we received in Egypt. You can find other messages on our website at www.alunajoy.com under the "Articles for Personal and Planetary Transformation" link. It might be a good idea to read them in order as each message builds upon the previous one. We are sharing this message here with you just as we received it, in present time, with very little editing. We do this for a very important reason. We know the messages that we receive are not just for our groups, but are for others as well. The Immortals, Horus, the Hathors, and other Star Masters and the Star Elders assure me that the message and the corresponding energy will be transmitted to you. So as you read this, you might want to imagine that you are with us. Also, always view the photos that we share, as photos also hold some energy of the sites.

(We arrived at Kom Ombo in the early morning. Once again, the site was empty with the exception of some local vendors. This Temple is dedicated to 2 deities/gods. The first is Horus (the falcon), the son of Isis and Osiris, and the supreme victor over darkness. The second is Sobek (the alligator God) who had the ability to undo evil and cure ills. There are 2 entrances and chambers in this Temple. Half of our group went into one chamber and the other half went in the other. In each chamber there is a seed / heart stone. Once entering the core section of the Temple, you can see a wall, separating the two chambers is a niche wide enough to stand in. From this niche to the rear of the Temple, there is an underground channel connecting the two chambers. On either side of this channel, there are two, large granite heart stones about chest high. Each person in our group followed their intuition and surrounded the stone that called to them. Several people also found the center section to be the place that resonated with them, and thus they held space there.)

The message begins . . .

This place is about honoring and healing the duality inside of us . . . The light and the dark . . . The good and the bad . . . All our opposite sides. We have two seed / heart stones in this Temple. It is the only place that I know that has two heart stones. This site honored duality, but it also was a site that helped to bring duality back into unity and harmony. The temple was built with a doorway that connected the two heart chambers. This way we can honor both sides of ourselves and bring them back into harmony. In the center, there is a tunnel that goes up in the wall between these two chambers. It is this center part that brings energy from the sky, down to earth, bringing this temple into perfect alignment. This energy circulates in an infinity pattern . . . like the number eight (8). So the Temple, all by itself, brings harmony to duality.

    ……………………

So we asked the guides, guardians and Angels of light that work with this temple, and the higher selves within us, to bring all things that are out of sync with nature and harmony inside of us back into balance. We ask that all the things that we struggle with, all the negative egos we wrestle with, to be brought back into alignment with our higher selves (with your permission as always). I can actually see energy coming from these two stones, coming up through the center and going up this tunnel of light up into the sky.

I was called to ask a question . . . "If we wanted to bring things back into balance, why wasn't there a way to touch both stones at the same time?" I thought that it was odd that they didn't do it that way, because in my mind, you would think that you would want to be able to touch both stones. But they said we needed to honor each side separately, because if we could touch both at the same time, we would probably ignore some of the things that we needed to heal on one side or the other. Does that make sense? It is really hard to face our dark sides. It is also hard to accept our light too. So the two heart stones represent the duality, and it does not matter which stone you work with . . . just use your heart. This site is about honoring and really facing the monsters inside of you, or the perceived illnesses and conflicts inside of you, and bringing them back into balance.

Now they are showing me that alchemists used to come here also and work on balancing the Earth and the heavens. In the past, there was a point in time where they had to work really hard to keep Earth alive as it was going through its dark cycles. They were keeping the planet alive until we could wake up in this new age that we are coming into. We have grown into the light and the power of who we are. Their work is done now. Now the work to be done is about working on holding the energy within ourselves . . . within our hearts. We do this because we are the cornerstones for a new world; our hearts are becoming cornerstones of light right now.

The alchemists, the ones that worked with balancing the light, had to keep planet alive. It was a big job. But now at this time it is about bringing this alignment . . . the two halves of the heart, the two lungs, the two ears, the two eyes, the two halves of the brain . . . down into the center of our hearts and holding this cornerstone within us. They say that we have moved beyond a small core of awakened beings that have been holding the light on the planet, and keeping the planet from total destruction. Now masses of light workers are holding this vision and balance. The weight is being lifted off of those that had to carry this heavy burden for so long. Now instead of a few hundred or maybe a few thousand holding the balance, there are millions on the planet holding the higher vision of unity for this planet. We are seeing Paradise returned. We are holding this vision.

    …………………………………..

It is our job, now as humanity is waking up, to just hold a higher vision, because when we hold the higher vision, the universe has to comply. The universe will only give us what we hold in our hearts and what we believe and what our belief system is. If our belief system is negative, we will create more of this negative. If we keep holding a higher vision in our hearts, this WILL come to pass. It has to. Example . . We are all here in Egypt. We held the higher vision to be here. The outer world made it look like we might not be able to come, but our inner world never gave up the vision. Every one of us held that vision. So you see anything is possible. We have already had a divine confirmation inside of our hearts. Our DNA is morphing around this new law of nature . . . that as long as we hold the vision, we can have paradise again. The universe is bound by natural law to morph around us. The universe is only acting upon our reaction and motivation. So the more we hold peace, joy, love and honor of our processes, it gives everybody on this planet permission to do exactly the same thing.

    …………………………………………  

This site honors the whole being; not just the spiritual side, but also the human side as well. So it is okay that you don't feel good, or that you are happy. It does not matter because we are neutral, unified and harmonized. This is the part that we tend to struggle with, because we have worked so hard to be connected, and are so attached to our spiritual side, that when the human side comes roaring up and does something ridiculous, we get critical of ourselves saying "We knew better . . . we could have done better." This site honors both of these sides. So what these messengers are telling us is to honor all the places inside of us. To honor the places where we don't feel so good about ourselves, and the places we feel absolutely brilliant about. Because when we honor and acknowledge all sides, it allows us to find our center. It brings us back into balance. This is a human journey of being from the sky, but being in a human body too. Living on the Earth at this time of great transformation is an honor and a gift. We are at the place where 10,000 years ago most of us had to escape or flee, or not make it altogether. We are going to have a different outcome this time. This time they say we are victorious. We are. We have learned. We have evolved.

SACRED SPACES NEWSLETTER – March 16, 2011

This time I share with you part of a weekly Newsletter from Toni Elizabeth Sar’h Petrinovich, my MetayoU Teacher. To subscribe please go to www.youaresacred.com

Amma Magi

You Are Incredibly Unique

Dear Amma,

I know the recent Japanese earthquake and its results have brought everyone to attention.  Not only does your animal instinct come to the fore, your inner knowing shifts and rearranges its perception dependent upon your belief system.  I am sending out this newsletter early this week to assist you with the links in the Personal Reflection portion at the bottom of this newsletter.

Much of the news is confusing causing your mind to race looking for logical answers and explanations.  In cases like these, it comes up empty.  Then it shifts to wanting to control the impact of effects upon you, your family and friends and then the environment.

Since transformation means change and it is to the transformative process you look as you learn to realign your beliefs and perceptions, it is wise to take a breath and return to the sense of congruity and coherence that is your natural state.  The earth is making a statement.  She says, "I am shifting.  I am changing.  The alterations to my body affect you because you live within my body."

If you allow yourself to remain at peace, calm and in harmony with the ebb and flow of the planet's natural forces, you will remain heart-centered within the profundity of this time in our continuum.  Birth is very messy.

Personal reflection:

While you are reading this newsletter, there is much news circling the globe regarding how much radiation is coming out of the nuclear reactors in Japan.  Physically, there are a couple of precautions you can take that assist your biology in working with nuclear radiation - potassium iodide and kelp.  Since potassium iodide does have some drawbacks, we are ingesting kelp powder as a precautionary measure.  There is a host of information on the Internet about both of these if you wish more details.

Two websites you will find helpful are:  Realtime Radiation Map and Black Cat Systems.  If you have not already found access to these two sites, a read of their descriptions is self-explanatory.

Having said that and leading you in a physiological direction, I would like to add that your coherent energy field is your most important tool in any moment of potential distress.  Practicing staying in your heart, breathing easily and staying focused in the present moment will do much to assist any anxiety you may feel.

I place great emphasis on remembering that I am God in form and that every experience in my life is Source sourcing Itself.  The significance placed upon events and the outcome of them is always subjective and strictly personal to each individual.  It is how Source experiences Its ever-expanding awareness of Itself.

Now is the time that has been spoken of and awaited.  It is a birthing of a new paradigm ~ an entirely new and (at this moment) incomprehensible way of living.  It is the time to breathe and ride the waves of the labor process.  It is not a time for fear.  Feel free to email me if you are having difficulty maintaining your heart and soul-centered Presence.  I am happy to remind you to take another breath.

You are loved in the One Heart,

Toni Elizabeth Sar'h

Here's another important message I wish to pass on. Owen Waters writes: "Your greatest opportunity for spiritual growth occurs, paradoxically, when catastrophe strikes." Now is the time for action!

Amma Magi

Today’s Key to Spiritual Growth

by Owen Waters

The heart-centered consciousness of the New Reality includes an expanded viewpoint of the world; one which encourages service to others.

The emerging theme today is about more than social responsibility or supporting the general good. It’s about how much you can help others through your efforts.

When it comes to spiritual growth, the same expanded viewpoint applies. The key to spiritual progress today is not retreating into a cave to find enlightenment, but giving active spiritual service. Today, spiritual progress is to be found in the noise and clatter of a world caught up in the turmoil of rapid change.

Your greatest opportunity for spiritual growth occurs, paradoxically, when catastrophe strikes. No matter where it strikes, you can send positive energy to change the energy of the situation and bring relief and healing.

If you are a spiritual healer, you already know how to do this. If you are a person who prays for others, you already know how to do this. If you are a person who creates better realities through the power of visualization, you already know how to do this. Sending healing energy to a world in crisis is something that every spiritual person can do.

You can make a difference. You can alleviate suffering. To do so is perfectly in keeping with the style of the New Reality. While general service to others is the key to general success in these days, service of a spiritual nature is the key to rapid and balanced spiritual growth.

You CAN heal the world, make it a better place, and, at the same time, advance your own spiritual growth. The massive earthquake in Japan provides an opportunity to bring desperately-needed healing energy into this, the darkest hour of those affected.

For this, I recommend using the World Healing Technique, which is based on a method I learned all the way back in 1972. I have never yet found a more powerful or effective way to bring healing to places in crisis: http://worldhealingnow.org/heal.htm

A CALL TO LOVE!
by Patricia Diane Cota-Robles
http://eraofpeace.org 

Precious Hearts, a monumental shift is taking place at this moment that transcends the perception of our conscious minds. Please go within to the deepest recesses of your heart and read these words from that sacred space where Divine Intelligence prevails. We are being called, on behalf of Humanity and all Life evolving on this sweet Earth, to release the greatest expression of Divine Love we have ever experienced. This very moment, focus your attention on the person you Love the most in this world. Tangibly feel your Love flowing through your Heart Flame into the Heart Flame of your Loved One. Now, feel your Love expanding and expanding until it envelops every particle of Life on Earth. Ask the Presence of God pulsating within your heart to increase this expression of Divine Love daily and hourly with every breath you take from this moment forth.

On Saturday, January 8, 2011, which numerically was an 11:11 day, we held a Celebration of Life Service for my beloved son Joao who passed away unexpectedly on December 29, 2010. The service was held at Saint Pius X Catholic Church in Tucson, Arizona at 10:00 a.m. There was an overflow crowd of over 700 people physically present and tens of thousands of people all over the world joining with us in consciousness to send their Love and support.

At 10:10 a.m., during the exact moment that Tucson was being flooded with Love and support from all over the world, an unprecedented act of violence took place which took the lives of six people and seriously wounded Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and eleven other people. Those who were killed included a Federal Judge and a nine year old girl who was born on September 11, 2001.

The focus of the world instantaneously turned to Tucson, and people everywhere began invoking the Light and praying for healing and comfort for the people involved. This outpouring of Love and Compassion created a powerful forcefield of Light that enveloped the planet and paved the way for a shift of consciousness that has the potential of lifting Humanity into a Higher Order of Unity Consciousness and Oneness than we have previously experienced. The success of this opportunity is up to us. Let’s all accept responsibility for being the Open Door for a perpetual influx of Divine Love. Let’s all hold the sacred space for Humanity to remember the Oneness of ALL Life.

The banner for the memorial service that was held in Tucson on January 12th in honor of those who lost their lives stated, “Together We Thrive.” During that event, President Obama and many other dignitaries who had come to Tucson for the service expressed the need for all of us to set aside our differences and for us to cocreate a new level of civil communication and interaction. It was expressed that it is time for us to reaffirm our commitment to each other and for us to build a more sensible and caring world. We were all asked to unite in a mission of recovery, and to honor the fallen by going forward in ways that heal and do not wound.

President Obama said, “What matters is not wealth, or status, or power, or fame, but how well we have Loved.”

We must all strive to be better people in our private lives, better friends, better coworkers, better neighbors. We cannot use this tragedy as one more excuse to tear each other down. Instead we must use this tragedy as a catalyst to catapult us into a Higher Order of Being. We must align our values with our actions. If we do this, the lives of those who died will not be in vain.

My Faith in your ability to accomplish this mighty feat is beyond measure. I Love you, and I Trust you. Listen to the Divinity within your heart and you will know how to God Victoriously accomplish your facet of this Divine Mission. Be at Peace. Know that when we work together, Victory is Ours!

OPEN HEART - INTEGRATION

Time never stands still. All is in constant movement. So it appears. But how do I relate to it? There are days when I wonder what I am doing. Am I wasting my time, waiting for better times or am I in the middle of a huge transformation without noticing it?

I remember the excitement over the promised cosmic events to take place this year from an astrological point of view and the speeding up of "spiritual opportunities" as from the Summer Solstice leading to the Conscious Convergence on 17th/18th July and the Harmonic Convergence on 17th August. The clarion call: "Open your Heart" is reverberating around the globe.

There has been a speeding up of opportunities for gatherings, meeting new people and movement through travel. Indeed an opening up to embrace life to the full. The Mother Earth is heightening Her frequencies and so should we.

I have come to realise the importance of spiritual education, to learn something new or rather "re-member" and then to integrate it into my life. In particular I have found much inspiring and thought-provoking material from the websites of Toni Elizabeth Sar'h www.youaresacred.com and Owen Waters www.infinitebeing.com  

The simple message this time is: Open your Heart, allow the energy of Love to integrate into all aspects of your life.

Don't forget the gathering at The Spirit of Life centre in Mani, Greece, on 3rd - 10th October 2010, where we can integrate our life experiences through creative writing, storytelling, meditation, yoga, country walks, swimming in the sea and enjoy delicious Greek food.

COURAGE

Welcome to our new web-design. We have completely changed our website to give it a more modern look. The front page photograph is taken from our Retreat Centre in Greece. What you see is the acropolis of Stoupa, Peloponnesos with the Mediterranean Sea in the background. It is a magnificent place for walking, swimming, meditating, healing, exploring ancient sites and recharging our batteries. Please check information on our “News” page for forthcoming retreats.

Like so many others I am always excited over the New Year, new promises, new intensions. As the months go by, I sit and wait for some miracle to happen, that extra something which will change the doldrums of my life. It is easy to forget that I am the one who has to bring that change about. I have to make the effort.

My office is filling up with files of diary notes, reflections, newspaper cuttings, print-outs from Internet, new and interesting books … My life is my work and my work is my life.

I have come to a point where my receptacle is becoming full. I am inspired by many contemporary creative artists and spiritual pioneers but at the end of the day I ask myself: Who Am I? What can I do for the world?

It takes courage to explore our individuality and stand on our own two feet. The ancient Greek saying “Know Thyself” is still relevant today. Within each soul lies the answer to the mysteries of the universe. When we come together as “awakened souls”, we truly become magnificent.

Don’t forget “the bigger picture”. What you are and what you do reflect on the whole. Each one of us has the potential to lift out of the mundane and into a life of intensity, passion and joy. Why limit ourselves?

THE “NOW” MOMENT

In a message from Diana Cooper dated 31st October 2009 (www.dianacooper.com), she writes: “In October we experienced the brightest full moon I have ever seen. It marks the time to finish with the old for there are great possibilities in the next few weeks to manifest the new. I have been uncording people and situations as I anticipate a flow of new energy and circumstances into my life and it has already started. This is such an exciting time to transform your life, so please back up new decisions with positive visualisations and you may be amazed at the wonderful changes presented to you.” 

During the last decade or so, we have gone through many astrological transformations that make me think we “have arrived”. Surely we must have reached the huge shift by now that people are talking about. But each day I wake up to the same old news stories about wars, political strife, financial chaos, mass unemployment … Are we lagging behind the evolutionary cycle which appears to be transforming the universe round us? Are we stuck, somehow? Or, are we still waiting for the magical date of December 2012, when we believe it is all going to happen?

The “Now” moment means that I stop dreaming and hoping for better times in the future. Instead I do a bit of practical Feng Shui, clearing out things that are not “my life” to make space for a new flow of energy. By making life simple, I create time to listen to my inner voice.

In the “Now” moment I shut out the world, the cares and concerns of other people, and concentrate on my own divinity, my own link with God. When I find my inner balance, I truly feel charged with energy and life becomes so much easier. The secret ingredient: to show GRATITUDE!

Through Sunlight Network I know there are many people all over the world connecting as Light Workers. Every Monday evening between 8-10 pm I set aside time for Healing and World Service. I know I am not alone. There are thousands, if not millions of us working for peace and enlightenment on Earth. Join us!

BRAVE NEW WORLD

One of the aphorisms of my Master, Dr George King, is “Miracles are not made by God for man, but by man for God”. It appears that this has been proven correct in recent days.

Since I was a child I have been in awe of people in high positions, admiring their competence while feeling myself unworthy. When will I ever grow up? Now at 60 years of age I have reached a turning point. I am starting to look back on my life. All my futile efforts, all my mistakes, all my disappointments have not been that at all. There is no failure, only experience which leads to better understanding and new insights. Am I really part of the huge shift in consciousness that has taken place and catapulted humanity toward a Higher Dimension? I need to pinch myself. Yes, I AM.

In amazement I read the latest information sent by Patricia Diane Cota-Robles of New Age Study of Humanity’s Purpose. Between 15-20 August 2009 the 23rd Annual World Congress on Illumination was held in Tucson, Arizona. The full report is posted under the heading “News” on this website and is worthy of study. She writes: “For clarity, the Company of Heaven asked me to reiterate a little of the information that they have shared with Humanity in the past. Their intent is to help all of us understand the groundwork that was laid in preparation for this moment. As you read these words, please ask your I AM Presence to help you “see with new eyes and hear with new ears.” This glorious occurrence has been a work in progress for millennia.”

In March this year I received a special edition of a newsletter: Take Charge of Your Life. Patricia Diane Cota-Robles writes “This Is Our Moment! In the deepest recesses of our hearts, we have always known that this time would come. World religions and prophecies throughout the Ages have all talked about these “end times”. What Humanity is experiencing now has been referred to time and again in various ancient scriptures as the “time of screaming and the gnashing of teeth.” Despite that ominous description, ALL of us volunteered to be here during this purging process. The question is, why would we subject ourselves to such pain and suffering? Why would we agree to be in physical embodiment during the most challenging time in the evolution of this planet? Well, the answer is clear. We volunteered to be on Earth at this time because we were shown the bigger picture.”

As I have often repeated: It is time to wake up!

PEACE AND JOY

“These are the Last Days of the Old Order. The New Order for you will be greater Peace, greater Joy. Conditions beyond your wild imaginings! Or, rebirth upon a younger World to relive the terrors of the history you have made upon this Planet. Choose – and Act!”               A Man from Mars

On 8th May 1954 a man in Maida Vale, London, received a Command which was to change the course of his life and awaken human minds to a cosmic perspective of huge proportions. During the following forty-three years Dr George King (1919-1997) pioneered a new culture to prepare mankind for entry into the Aquarian Age. The quotation above is taken from his book “You Are Responsible!” published in 1961, a real classic and must read for any serious metaphysical student (available from The Aetherius Society www.aetherius.org).

The words “peace” and “joy” are taken from the front cover of the book and the more I look at the world, I see peace and joy emerging out of chaos and confusion. My middle name is “Traveller on the Path” and recently I travelled down to my beloved Greece. I celebrated “western” Easter and the following week Greek orthodox Easter, mixing with the European community in southern Peloponnesos. New as well as old acquaintances enhanced my experiences and nurtured my faith in the goodness of people. Especially I wish to congratulate artist Ioannis Antoniadis at Rainbow’s End Art Gallery, Kardamili on his divinely inspiring paintings. Please check his website: www.ioannisantoniadis.com Also Carol and Peter at Mesogio Gallery in Stoupa, who incidentally also have exclusive rights to sell my book “Travels with Socrates – a modern diary from Greece”.

Another little joy this day is the celebration of my dog Julius Panayiotis’ first birthday. The sun is shining and spring is truly here with its green lush and longer daylight. It is play time!

Peace and Joy to all!

CULTURAL CENTRES

In my life I find a shift away from the popular concepts of abundance, finding a perfect life partner, seeking happiness to ultimately live in bliss. Even the concept of New Age seems out-moded as we are integrating into a new era of cultural awareness.

Mankind is heading somewhere and fast. It is time to wake up and prepare ourselves individually and collectively.

The word culture translates into civilisation, society, traditions, customs, way of life, etc. It is a foundation upon which we base our every day living. But things do not appear to be as they used to. Time to change.

Living in Greece a few years ago my partner Panos and I often reflected over sustainable life styles. We enjoyed a simplistic way of living. The elements of fire, water, earth and air were fundamental. Respect for Mother Nature and Her free gifts were also essential. We found that we needed very little in the way of materialistic means in order to enjoy a healthy and rich life style.
Also here in Sweden I have adapted a simple life style, growing my own vegetables during the summer months, taking care of fruit and berries as they ripen, making jams, etc.

Apart from the survival aspect of every day living, there is the human need for culture, nurturing and stimulating ourselves and each other. People need to meet, not just at cultural events where entertainment is laid on, but just to talk and exchange ideas. I have noticed many “organic” groups forming without dogmas or hidden agendas.

Sunlight Network has nurtured this concept over the years and arranged numerous events where people meet in a relaxed atmosphere, sharing information, our talents and gifts.

Unfortunately Panos is no longer with us as he passed on some twelve months ago but he helped me instigate the concept of “Logos on Earth”, a meeting space for philosophical and educational conversations. At the same time these will act as healing and nurturing retreats. We established one in Greece and I have also established one here in Sweden. I will continue to develop these, knowing that the spirit of Panos is with me.

Wishing you all a culturally fulfilling and nurturing 2009!

CHANGE IS IN THE AIR

Has anyone noticed? The word “change” played a prominent part in Barack Obama’s US presidential campaign and appealed to the voters. Neale Donald Walsch of “Conversations with God” fame is launching a new book: “When Everything Changes, Change Everything”. David Icke, author and lecturer of conspiracy fame, cautiously asks: “Hope for what? Change what? Believe in what?”

There is a wind of change blowing giving each one of us an opportunity to re-evaluate our lives, a wind of fear, uncertainty and turmoil if we don’t harness its positive effects. Thank God we are stopped in our tracks and given a chance to take stock. Where are we heading?

The greatest change causing domino effect across the world is the financial “crisis”. Is anyone surprised? The other day I stumbled upon an old issue of Caduceus magazine (issue 30 Winter 1995). On its front cover: Power and Money – Beyond money madness – Revolutions in business – Releasing guilt about money – Could business heal the planet? John Tomlinson, a former New York stock exchange broker and merchant banker, is featured: “The debt-based monetary system isn’t working. Do we have an alternative to economic turbulence?” He writes: “At the moment, western economies need to create new jobs to reduce the levels of unemployment. Within a debt-based monetary system, that means that interest rates must be reduced. People will then borrow money both to spend and to invest. That is the current wisdom about how to achieve a healthier economy. I question that wisdom which says that, in order for the economy to improve, either more people must get into debt or those who are already in debt must get deeper into debt.” Talking to a neighbour over a cup of coffee in the kitchen today he confirmed that very thing. “Just to buy another television set we get into debt. We take a loan. But now no-one will lend us money.” And Christmas is approaching, a time of spending.

Now is the time to apply our metaphysical and esoteric knowledge, test our belief systems, find out who we truly are, go within in meditation and come out in co-operation and service.

As I am writing this there is a violent storm spreading along the whole length of Sweden’s eastern shores, coming inland with ferocity. We are already experiencing snow chaos with more snow expected. In my worst imaginings fear is gripping my mind. But why, I ask myself? Welcome it instead. With hardships comes a sharpening of the mind, a survival instinct. Someone once said to me: “you cannot sharpen a knife on velvet”. Challenges, winds of change, chaos, turmoil … well, it is trying to tell us something. Maybe it’s about time we wake up?

MIDSUMMER GREETINGS FROM SUNLIGHT

The Summer Solstice beckons us. On Saturday June 21st we reach the zenith of Light in the Northern Hemisphere. It is a time to open our hearts in gratitude and joy.

At Sunlight Network Headquarters here in Sweden we continue to monitor the New Age movement but very little is passed on through our website. Why? Because there is an over-abundance of information available through the Internet. The sheer volume of teachings, guidance and channelling is enough to make anyone’s head spin. It is not our role to select what “people should know”. It is up to each and everyone to seek what we need for our spiritual growth and understanding. What we do provide is a forum, a meeting point of minds where we exchange ways to improve ourselves, our environment and the world.

In my personal life I have come to realise that I do not always need to know “the reason”. I used to analyse everything to bits and try to make sense of the world. Recently I have heard it repeated enough times to know that I should stop looking for a reason. There is a way to surrender with grace. To trust God.

A friend of mine recently said, as we were comparing our rough times: “we don’t know what we really volunteered for when we entered into incarnation.” It is true, as our memories are locked up and our purpose veiled. But we came here “for a reason”. A highly recommended book is entitled “Discover Your Purpose in Life” by Owen Waters. You can order an e-book through www.InfiniteBeing.com Owen and I used to work together in London under the same Yoga Master, Sir George King. We chose the best metaphysical training available.

In her book “The Age of Miracles – Embracing the New Midlife” Marianne Williamson writes: “It’s horrible to contemplate, but terrorists know what they’re doing. I can’t imagine a kind-of, sort-of, when-it’s-convenient, casually committed terrorist. Terrorists have an agenda, that’s for sure, and they’ll do whatever it takes to further it. Yet our biggest problem isn’t just that a relatively few people hate with conviction; it’s that not enough of us love with conviction. With every thought of love, we participate in the creation of a unified field of exponentially greater possibility for everyone.”

Now is the time to love with conviction. Happy Midsummer!

THE MYSTICAL MONTH OF MAY

We are being called to a higher service. Patricia Diane Cota-Robles appeals to us to “be the heart, head and hands of God” on this physical plane. The month of May is always a very spiritual and auspicious time, she writes, and the first of May is known as Saint Germain’s Ascension Day. The outpouring of Violet Flame is amplified as this day falls within the embrace of two very powerful Wesak Full Moons, on April 20th and May 19th. We are called to invoke these new frequencies of energy and serve as surrogates on behalf of mankind. For full details, please check out her website http://eraofpeace.org

From April 18th to May 23rd we enjoy an enhancement of all our spiritual efforts by a factor of 3,000 times through the orbit of Satellite No. 3 in our skies. For full details please check out website www.aetherius.org

Constantly we are being reminded, from many sources, of the urgency of our times and the leaps and bounds forward we are making as Lightworkers.

May is already proving an interesting month. A few days ago I visited Stockholm to attend an SRF meditation meeting (Self-Realization Fellowship). Two visiting monks from Los Angeles were present to share first-hand experience of life in one of the Temples founded by Paramahansa Yogananda. Their mission was also to strengthen the fellowship between students in small groups and isolated areas. A metaphor of burning logs in a fireplace was used to illustrate the importance of unity. Take one log out of the fire and what will eventually happen? I felt particularly touched as I have been working on my own in an isolated area for many years now but feel an urge to move closer to my spiritual associates.

Yesterday the funeral of a young girl was broadcast nationwide on TV in Sweden. She was a child molested victim and used as a symbol of innocence. The sun was shining, spring was at its most beautiful with white cherry blossoms. The heart chakra of Sweden opened.

Urgent message: Global Interlink Conference in Israel (December 2008) – Integrating the New Cosmic Energies into the Human Consciousness. Check out www.mph-group.com

Enjoy the mystical month of May!

A CHRISTMAS MESSAGE - PEACE AND HAPPINESS

As I was sitting down to write my Christmas message, I read through an article sent by a friend only yesterday. My heart lit up and I thought “Thank You! You have already written my message. Further words are superfluous.” Please feel free to take into your heart and mind the message which follows below. It pays tribute to The Sun, as in Sunlight, as the best model for unconditional love!

Have a safe and joyous Christmas and New Year! Go with God.

Peace and Happiness

Peace resides in the human heart. Inner peace creates outer peace in your relationships and in the effect that you have upon the global consciousness.

Peace is a choice. It respects your boundaries and it respects the boundaries of others. When you set your boundaries and stop others from intruding into your space, when you respect other people's boundaries and do not intrude into their personal space, then it is possible to move on to the next step, a state of mutual cooperation.

Mutual cooperation means that you support each other in ways that come from your heart. You help people because you love the spirit within them. Their outer personality is not the important focus here; it is their inner light, their inner spirit that you can always love, regardless of their outward actions. This, then, is the foundation for unconditional love.

The best model for unconditional love is right above you in the daytime sky. The Sun shines on everyone alike, without any judgment.

Love and support are the key requisites for lasting peace. The more people embrace peace in their own lives, the more they affect the global consciousness that we all share on this planet.

Happiness is the fruit of the tree of life. It is the needle in the compass that tells you that you are on track, that you are 'on purpose' in your journey through life.

True happiness is inner joy, that deep and genuine joy which lasts forever. It comes from being in resonance with your inner purpose, with your inner self.

Your inner self is your soul, the part of you which lives forever, the part of you that is always there to help, guide and protect you.

Within this inner soul burns the flame which connects you to the entire cosmos of Creation. It is your connection to Infinite Being, to the All That Is.

In this heart of your spiritual connection lies a wonderful essence. This is the essence of spirituality and joyful living.

As your conscious connection with this essence grows, so does your level of happiness.

A connected life is a purposeful and rewarding life. It is one where you spend your efforts exploring the exact situations that you came here on Earth to experience. With love and wisdom, you transform these situations into lasting success.

Through life, you experience the endless variety of Creation. Through life, you travel back to that source from which you came. Through life, you discover the inner flame which is the key to eternal joy and happiness.
