I’ve alluded many times to a splitting of realities/timelines and what I call the “Cosmic ‘Are You Sure?!'” but wanted to share today about how I see these two factors affecting relationships. Many clients and loved ones have experienced simultaneous breakthroughs in stuck areas of their lives, only to find breakdowns of long-term relationships. This pattern often occurs anyway, because as we shift our own restricted energies into new, expansive directions, those who felt comfortable with the lesser version of us can feel threatened by the change. That dynamic just seems majorly magnified right now, so I wanted to assure people that if you’re experiencing it, you’re not alone. Entire swaths of our culture are choosing either perpetual victimization, fear and ignorance or liberation, love and joy.
Fence sitting continues to become uncomfortable and borderline impossible, which can result in fence sitters lashing out at people who represent the side they’re afraid to leap into. Aggressive rejection or the icy shoulder and silent treatment seem to be the most common manifestations of these splits, although I prefer to recognize the concept of vibrational matching rather than flat out rejections. A split of energies doesn’t need to mean one person’s right and the other wrong, although there may, in fact, be quite moral grounds for the split. Practically, though, it doesn’t matter: for whatever reason, the two participants are simply “not a match.” Attempting to glue together radically incompatible energies strains both sides.
Multiply this dynamic exponentially, and we can see how recent relationship challenges really exist as a microcosm of what’s happening in our macro world. We shift as individuals, but with 7 billion individuals receiving a megaphoned, Cosmic “Are You Sure?!” that macro world feels disjointed, surreal and yes, sometimes painful.
In addition to their own bewildered hurt feelings after a preemptive rejection by people afraid to be left behind, I also hear people undergoing profound positive transformation express such heartfelt sorrow when someone close to them chooses to wallow in the same old dysfunctions and excuses. This grief isn’t some kind of condescending way to feel superior, but rather a recognition of what kinds of miraculous opportunities are being rejected and discarded. We cannot choose for others, though, especially not at this time. The Hopi prophecies make clear that every living being will need to decide for themselves. To do our part, we must live in our own integrity, listening to intuition, heart and soul, feeling our way through the maelstrom and allowing ourselves to experience the blessings that we ourselves have chosen. Refusing to honor the joy of our own choices alters our own chosen timeline.
Everyone is receiving ample opportunities to choose differently than they have before. The differences between realities have become so stark that no one can honestly claim they cannot tell the difference between options. Ultimately, those on a transmutation or ascension path need to live the commitment to be in the world but not of it. Our world is changing, and blessings abound for those with eyes to see and hearts to receive.
The following Chatauqua article provides more background on the current energies and choices. The greater our understanding of the timeline options, the more clearly we can respond to the Cosmic “Are You Sure?!” Thanks, G!
Chautauqua ~ Shifting Timelines, Free Will & The Power Of Choice
Have you been feeling of late that someone turned up the treadmill on the rat race? Perhaps the world has begun feeling a bit like an accelerating merry-go-round threatening to toss you off if your grip fails. Does it feel as if insanity gains more ground every day while decency and morality continue to be given the Rodney King treatment? Have ya noticed that we’re not in Kansasanymore? I don’t know what is worse; the fact that there are now school shootings nearly every week – or that we’re getting used to it; accepting it much as the slave endures yet another lash from the walking boss.
These are just a few of the symptoms of the spiritual evolution currently well underway; and although it gets very little mainstream news coverage it is an irresistible wave of change, happening all around us right now. We can try to surf the crest of these changes, or be pummeled £ed by them. The tired old paradigms of the Piscean age are crumbling now because they have to; they have no choice in the matter, their time on the stage is over, and thus we have the two opposite and divergent timelines separating from one another. One timeline remains in 4th dimensional frequency resonance, the other simply moves uphill an octave on the evolutionary scale, to 5th dimensional frequency resonance. This shifting of the timelines is rather like an election in the realm of spirit. Decide which frequency you wish to express in, and vote for it by giving it all your mental energy and focus…and it will become your reality.
Energy follows thought. If you focus primarily on the hateful and negative side of life, and always feel like a victim; that is what you will attract, and vice versa. Understanding this is key to resolving which timeline you will embrace. How much change are you willing to accept in order to raise your frequency resonance? We are witnessing the shifting of the timelines more every day now; as each day brings even more reports of high strangeness, crumbling paradigms, and a visible, growing rift throughout civilized society. Even as the warmongers are wringing their claws in glee at sending “Advisors” back into Iraqas if we’ve never heard the term and never lost a war there. You see it isn’t about changing the people in control, or “good” overcoming “evil” or even changing society: it’s not about that at all. It’s about individual transformation, and spiritual growth from childhood, into adolescence.
It’s about free will, and the power of choice. It’s about taking responsibility for our own spiritual destiny, before someone else does it for us by consensual proxy. It’s about taking our power back and consciously choosing the reality we wish to exist in. The 4th dimensional world will continue on as it is essentially unchanged, for those who are not yet ready to make the transition, and still need it. For others the way is now open to make that transition into higher vibration, and higher consciousness, but ya gotta leave the baggage behind, lighten the load. I know it is much harder than I make it sound; but then if it was easy, everyone would be doing it. You could say it’s kind of a rite of passage, I suppose. The key here is in your intention! Whatever your intention is, focus on that, because by so doing you are essentially programming your uplink to the Unified Quantum Field. If your heart’s desire is to stick around and see how this all plays out, then by all means, keep obsessing about the current state of world politics, wars, and rumors of wars; and your wish will be granted. If however you desire a more refined, more spiritual environment; now is the time to place your order, as the veils are lifting, the timelines are diverging. Wherever your thoughts & intent are focused the strongest & longest, that is where your energy will flow to. It has to. It doesn’t have a choice~but we do.
Free Will vs Fate
My personal belief is that this is not a dimension of pre-determined, immutable fate, but rather one where we have each been endowed by Source with free will, to choose our own path, and destiny. I have seen far too many people overcome having life stack the deck against them, and emerge whole, happy and successful people, to believe any other way. When life gets hard, and knocks people down time and again; it’s easy to take the view that it’s fate, and there is no escaping it no matter how hard you try. When ‘the rules’ change without notice and the futures of millions are decided by a select few behind locked doors; it’s only human to become discouraged, then jaded in one’s world view. But, there is always more to it than just that, of course, it goes much deeper and farther back than most people realize. All too often folks use the unfairness of life and the harshness of reality to kinda shut down, give in, and quit trying. It becomes just too hard to make sense of the madness, so we just work around it the best we can and try to find some meaningful happiness.
Peoples belief systems are a lot like setting a long string of dominoes on end, with each one representing a certain belief. Great care is then taken to ensure that nothing be allowed to topple this chain of beliefs, especially the first ones, the foundational beliefs upon which all subsequent beliefs are structured. If something is allowed to topple those first few beliefs, the entire system comes cascading down, one after another. Our ego’s cannot tolerate that, so we protect and defend our belief systems against all comers, including logic. Logic and facts are a dangerous threat to belief systems founded upon illogical presumption.
Belief systems are also a lot like a life preserver at sea. If the one you have barely keeps you afloat in calm waters, it is likely to fail you all together when the winds of change whip up a storm. Isn’t it more appealing to believe in the power of free will, which permits you to overcome nearly any obstacle, than to limp along with the crutch of “fate” being responsible for all your woes? I think so! Another nice aspect of free will is that it doesn’t require others to validate your belief system with their agreement. On the other hand, proponents of fate often feel they must insist on such agreement for their views to have merit; all the while rejecting all contrary views out of hand.
These diverging timelines are a great stressor on simply everything, especially us frail and flighty humans. We have moved out beyond the reach of history into uncharted waters with no landmarks to guide us onward. Our comfort zones are being squeezed & stretched with each new assault on our decency and dignity; and all we have to cling to are our belief systems, most of which are firmly rooted in the now-dying paradigm. Not such a great flotation device after all. As the dichotomy & duality of life we’ve always accepted become more distorted; and society seems to be leaning more each day toward Bat Shit Crazy, our souls become a bit restless as our egos try to maintain our outward composure. Pretending to those around us, and those who depend on us that we have it all figured out adds a tremendous amount of stress to everything else stressing us out.
Now the owners of this crumbling paradigm are frantically pulling out all the stops; in a desperate effort to prop up the facade a little longer so they can milk it for every last possible dollar. Unfortunately for us average folks, one of their nastiest tricks is to keep us distracted by setting us against each other with a mine field of controversial “hot button issues” which only serve to divide us further than we already are. They are succeeding. No matter what the issue, abortion, gay marriage, global warming, chemtrails or unicorns; these days nobody wants to debate the actual issue, instead they unleash a pack of feral ankle biters attacking the character of those who believe differently with a litany of subterfuge and linguistic tricks; and they fill up every “news cycle” with exactly that. Because a citizenry capable of critical thought is “their” worst threat, those in power are waging an astonishingly effective war against science; seeking to not just dumb us down but to drive us back into the dark ages. They know that energy follows thought, and that if they can keep our thoughts & minds focused here rather than on the 5th dimensional frequency resonance, our energy will trap us here as the timelines complete their separation, and the opportunity to choose is lost to us. Its working.
One good reason why it is working is because with the nature and pace of modern life, nobody makes the time to do the necessary reading & research to be well versed on so many different topics. They just repeat the last thing they heard that sounded intellectual, and once repeated a few times, it becomes belief. Even with the internet on your smart phone, who takes the time? Let’s walk thru this a minute: Today’s advanced state of technical, medical and computer wizardry with all the modern conveniences we depend upon and enjoy – is a product of science. Now suddenly this cult of science deniers has sprung up to dispute everything that is already established fact. It does no good to argue with these people because all they do is deny and attack. Anything they have no answer for is simply ignored, like the issues themselves. They’re like telemarketers, and have a snappy but hollow comeback for whatever you may say, and like telemarketers, they operate from a script. I cannot help but think of how very difficult it must be to believe in anythingwhen your knowledge is so very limited. The locked room.
The Power of Choice
I don’t think many of us could get thru the day, much less function efficiently without making choices; we make a multitude of them every day, many of them on the fly, so to speak: without having much time for analysis or contemplation. We make some choices so subconsciously as to be hardly aware of them until afterwards, in hind sight. Life is all about choices, because its about free will, the freedom to pick one thing or way over another, and we do it constantly.
There are basically three types, or levels of choice we humans make; and they follow along these lines: The first level of choice includes the multitude of relatively small decisions we tend to make on a daily, weekly and monthly basis, the stuff of everyday life. The second level of choice is represented by the fundamental choices we make around which our life will operate, and determines our comfort zone. The third level of choiceinvolves mid-to-long range plans and the decisions necessary to guide us there. Now, on the surface this all seems straight forward enough, but as life so often teaches us; there is a hitch, and its not small. The hitchis that no choice or decision can exceed the parameters of the second level of choice. By example, if one of your second level choices is to have only a minimum of responsibility in life; then your third level choice to become president will never become your reality. Energy follows thought!
The thing that makes this so critical is that the vast majority of us form the core of our second level choices while still adolescents…teenagers. Society places a tremendous amount of pressure upon teens to compete, do your best, beat the other guy and be a winner! Parents and peers are little help in this case, as they also encourage the same things in us, it’s even said to be a healthy thing. Well, maybe. Now factor in all the other pressures bearing down upon the average teenager in western culture, echoing the mantra of success thru competition; acceptance, rejection and beauty…and then try to relate! All too often this cumulative pressure becomes too overbearing; a nagging thing from which there seems no escape, and in an instant the choice is made. Being a winner is too much hard work, too much competition and way too much stress – and being a loser is unacceptable for a whole raft of reasons. The choice is then made to be neither a winner or a loser, but rather to seek the middle ground between those extremes, and it nearly always is made in the grips of pain, angst, confusion &low self esteem; during a dark night of the soul.
When you argue in favor of your limitations, you get to keep ‘em
This decision; this choice to be neither a winner or a loser in life becomes a core directive because in it there is safety, and insulation from the abuses of this world. Being a second level choice it automatically trumps any other or subsequent choices that would exceed the built in parameters, and limitations. Because life becomes somewhat easier after making the choice to not be a winner, it hangs around long enough to become habit; and long after that dark night of the soul, our tendency is to forget the pain that caused us to cripple our entire future with failure. We forget making the choice, but that does nothing to limit its powerful effect. Years later when full of potential and passion to achieve, we cannot understand why we just never seem able to grab the brass ring no matter how hard we try. We forget that night we chose not to be a winner because we simply cannot believe choices made by tormented teens can be so powerful, but indeed they are!
Now, if the choice made by a confused teenager in pain can be that powerful for that long a time: Imagine the power of a choice made by a spiritually conscious & aware soul with a focused intention! Just imagine that! Remember that hitch in the three levels of choice? I said that no subsequent choice can overturn a second level choice…but I never said you cannot go back into the system and update the firmware, because you can! If this scenario sounds familiar to you, and you now wish to break the cycle by changing that cornerstone choice to a better one, there’ll never be a better time than right now. The power to do this all rests within you. Indeed, avail yourself of whatever technique or tactic that will help; (as long as it harms no one) but the power is all within you. Once you understand that; and that energy follows thought, the rest is a piece of cake, or easy as pie if you’re a cake hater.
One thing is certain, those who keep on sleepwalking thru this life by refusing to face the harsher realities of it, are most likely destined to remain in 4D frequency resonance until they figure it out. Spiritual growth doesn’t arise from defending a belief system inconsistent with evidence to the contrary because one is too afraid of change, or truth. It, in fact is exactly oppositeof what most folks embrace. It isn’t about believing it after you see it. Its about seeing it when you believe it. When Columbus landed in the new world, those who were already here saw only white puffy clouds approaching just above the water because they had no concept of a “ship” in their belief system. Therefore they were unable to see the wooden ships, just the white canvas sails. Within a very short time those who greeted Columbus could all see the ships just fine, once they had a concept of it. In the exact same way, we are blind to those things we don’t make room for in our perceptions of this world.
It doesn’t help that we are programmed and conditioned from birth to conform, fit in, don’t rock the boat and most of all; to be good consumers who never question authority. As the old saying goes, “the nail that stands up gets hammered back down.” Generation after generation just keep accepting the imposed structure of the 40 hour work week (once upon a time) and whatever benefits the employer feels like giving. With things being as they are economically a great many people feel lucky to even have a job; so they silently endure whatever draconian measures the employer may now impose that allow him to exploit the situation for more loot. Once signed on to the grist mill of earning a living by building other peoples dreams; we automatically give up a whole lot of choice in the way our personal & collective futures will unfold. Slavery was never abolished, it was just expanded to include everyone; your smart phone & smart meter are your newest manacles.
Modern life and those who call the shots have an abrasive way of grinding the human spirit down gradually over time; to maximize productivity & minimize problems. They’ve been at it a very long time now and gotten it down to a real art form of sorts. We call it the Rat Race because there literally is no way out other than the grave. At least that’s what they want us to believe; that we have no options, when in fact we have several at any given time. We just don’t know how to recognize them anymore, being that we’re out here beyond the reach of history, in uncharted waters and all.
So, yeah, if your getting the feeling lately that the world is a runaway train headed for a washed-out bridge with no one at the controls; and everyone is fighting over seating arrangements; that’s actually fairly accurate, and if you aren’t concerned now, you really should be. Maybe it’s time to quietly get up, leave the baggage, and find your way to the nearest exit. This train is gonna crash whether you are on it or not, whether you believe it or not; so why stick around? There is still time to make a hasty transfer to that train on the next track over, headed for 5D, but at this late date you may have to jump for it.
May the Source be With You!
