Every day I get calls asking, “What is going on? I thought I dealt with this!”

Yes, you have dealt with the this, and now we’re all going deeper. The Universal, Planetary and personal energies have aligned to support all of us in clearing patterns, beliefs and behaviors at a more finely tuned and expansive level. The first peak of the 2012 Shift in Consciousness actually happened last month, October 28. This shift has to do with all things physical. Physical translates to everything grounded in the 3D or Earth levels. This consists of, though is not limited to, our physical forms including all levels of health, home, cars, money (from the IRS to climbing the careers ladder), Mother Earth and all her beings, and ALL relationships (business, personal, family, friends, the clerk at the grocery - you get the picture). In other words, we are in the process of looking at, blessing and releasing our resistances to physical life.

The final peak, on December 21, 2012, will bring our Spirituality into focus. Somewhere between 10/28/11 and 12/21/12, we will have an emotional peak and a mental peak. Might I just say right here, do your work now as taking care of ourselves in the physical is, in and of itself, imperative as well as being the foundation for the rest of the journey, not the other way around (hence, it came first)! The best formula for dealing with the potentially overwhelming myriad of issues is consistency and gentleness with self and others. Judgment is counterproductive. Boundaries are essential. And, please remember that I refer to “peak” times, not ending times. Process continues until you, personally, are complete.

Back to the physical: Some people are dying and I expect this to continue being a time of great departure from the body. Some people are having their deepest fears manifested through their bodies in sickness, dis-ease and trauma. Many are experiencing financial challenges. No, organizations, including governments, are not exempt from the lessons and opportunities to clean up karma. There is a lot of change as we are seeking to be in alignment with our highest vibration (love and all its many aspects). Your experience and challenges are based in what you have chosen to learn and heal in this lifetime. Remember that our lessons are only as tough as they need to be to get our attention and bring healing.

All of our lessons are about progressing out of victim consciousness and into self empowerment. We are being given an opportunity to understand the conscious and unconscious patterns we hold and address them. It is mandatory that we forgive self first and then forgive others before the patterns will be released. Self forgiveness is the key to moving through these critical lessons. The question is often posed, “What do I have to forgive myself for?” You can start by forgiving yourself for attracting the lesson and then ignoring until it got this difficult. Nothing has happened to you. You have attracted it because of some belief that you hold or held. This is the challenging side of Law of Attraction. These old beliefs are the blocks to manifesting what you truly want in your life.

Included in moving from victim to empowerment is also clearing emotions, which is part of the next push in healing. Letting go of deep seated anger and need for revenge is a huge part of the transformation. You may not be conscious those patterns exist, but chances are they still lurk in the deep recesses of your Soul, Mind, Emotions and Body. You already know that everything is related. Beliefs hold emotions and emotions hold beliefs. In forgiving, you get a two-in-one healing. Don’t be afraid or embarrassed. We all have this stuff, from the greatest Spiritual leaders to the average human. Face it, embrace it, love it and leave it. In other words:

Face your fears, uncomfortable feelings, angst or anything else that stops you, even for a moment from moving forward with those things you want in your heart. This literally could be the hesitation you feel before you enter a building or the keen terror before you cross a bridge. It could be the sarcastic remark you make about the other team or the deprecation you give yourself.
Embrace the truth of those feelings. Is the fear you exhibit really because you like being taken care of instead of doing things for yourself? Are you controlling because you’re lonely? Are you over-achieving because you’re afraid of failing? Are you self-righteous because you’re afraid to be wrong? What is the truth of your feelings?
Love it means coming out of resistance. This is the self-forgiveness part! Only then can you move forward to forgiving others and, ultimately, releasing the block. If you are not ready to forgive yourself or others, remember that you can ask Spirit to forgive until you can stand in love. Note: lessons always come back around, ready or not. This is not a free pass. The work must be done and you will get help when you need it. Spirit never abandons us.
Leave it, meaning bless it and release it. You will bring in a new consciousness and a new appropriate pattern as you lovingly let go. As you do this, the old, negative energy is turned into healing energy and used where it is needed.

This is some pretty heady stuff for the season of love and sharing. And that is exactly why I wrote it, loving and sharing starts with Self. Filling the empty holes in Self through external giving brings only momentary relief if you, yourself, are not genuinely filled with love. The journey on our Spiritual paths doesn’t take a holiday. It is and always will be. You have an amazing opportunity to heal yourself so that you are living an authentic life and giving from the truth of your heart, not the fear in your heart.

So, take this opportunity and begin at the beginning. Dig a little deeper and walk the path of love every month, every year for the rest of your life.

Love and blessings,
