Dear Reader,
I have not posted anything here in a while.
This has been intentional as I have come to learn, or rather experience, that the "new earth" is not something that can be easily written about...
This transition is so delicate and fresh that any attempt at communicating or physically expressing it may well be futile. Rather, we must follow our inner guidance; it is there and it is constantly working overtime with/for you.
We are so much more than can be possibly imagined.
We must let this energetic unfolding do its Divine work.
Release your grip dear brother/sister and know that all is well.
Expressing Love for the One and Many,
Jason

How The Shift Will Happen
by Owen Waters
The ancient Mayan culture gave us more than the Mayan cosmic
cycles. They were an early test case for the process of
physical ascension that the entire planet is about to
experience in the near future.
Their cycles work made us aware that December 21st, 2012 is
when several long-term cosmic cycles of influence upon human
consciousness come to a close, all on the same date, and new
cycles begin. There is a 5,125 year cycle, a longer 26,000-year
cycle, and some even longer-term cycles as well, all converging
on that one date.
The Mayan civilization existed up until 830 A.D, yet their
astronomical knowledge exceeded today's level of knowledge in
many ways. They not only knew the precise orbits of the planets
in our solar system, but also the orbits of the stars in our
galaxy. They even had cataloged information on major cosmic
events going back more than 400 million years. The Mayan
calendars are masterpieces which illustrate the repeating
time-spirals of cosmic cycles within cycles within cycles.
Then, the Mayans suddenly disappeared from their cities,
leaving no traces behind as to where they had moved and, yet,
left their cooking pots and utensils behind. There is no sign
that they suddenly died from some mysterious ailment and they
did not move to another known location. That means they didn't
relocate anywhere here on this physical earth. Instead, they
moved up a level from our third-density level of existence into
fourth density. They didn't move away; they moved up.
Fourth density is less dense than our world, but it is still
physical. It is also home to the spirit realms or the
afterlife. If you were a physical human living in fourth
density, you would find it relatively easy to contact people in
spirit bodies. They would live in a higher sub-realm of fourth
density than you, but you'd both be in the overall
fourth-density layer of existence on this planet.
The Mayans engaged in a prototype experiment to ascend from
third density to fourth density. They weren't the only test
group engaging in such experiments. In New Mexico, for example,
the residents of Bandelier and Puye Cliff Dwellings
successfully ascended, as did the residents of Machu Picchu in
Peru. Those test groups moved from third density up into fourth
density.
The ascension that is about to happen on Earth in the near
future will be very similar and, yet, it will be different in
one major respect. We won't be leaving our old world behind to
move into a new one. Our world will ascend along with
everything in it, including us.
Our entire realm of existence will increase in frequency and
move up into a fourth-density frequency band. This time, the
cooking pots and utensils won't get left behind; they'll come
with us, as will everything else in our reality.
When this occurs, people who are alive in physical bodies will
experience physical ascension, right after those in the
afterlife experience their ascension to a higher sub-realm of
fourth density. In fact, they'll vacate the sub-realm that
we'll be moving into.
The nature of this global ascension was foreseen as long as
two millennia ago by Jesus, who even foresaw the sequence of
events. He said that, in the twinkling of an eye, the dead
shall be raised and we shall be changed. But first, he said,
the 'dead' shall rise and then we will be caught up together
with them in the 'clouds' (i.e. higher realms.)
So, the 'dead' - the spirits residing in the afterlife - will
first rise to a higher sub-realm of their fourth-density
existence and then we will be moved up into fourth density.
This upcoming transformation of our world into fourth density
is referred to as the Ascension, the Rapture, the Resurrection,
or simply as The Shift. Today, we think of The Shift as the
phenomenon where everything is changing very quickly. In the
future, however, The Shift will be looked back upon as the day
the world suddenly changed or 'rose in the heavens.'
The Shift will occur when the time is right for humanity to
handle the experience. This means, when a critical mass is
reached in the emerging New Reality consciousness. Fourth
density is a heart-centered frequency band of consciousness.
When enough people operate in that level of consciousness, then
humanity will be ready to make the mass shift into fourth
density.
Percentage-wise, the number of people required to reach the
tipping point is small because higher consciousness has
proportionately more influence on the global mind atmosphere
than the lower frequencies.
After 2012, promoting widespread New Reality consciousness
will be a lot easier then before, as the old cycles will have
finished and the positive influences of new cycles will be in
effect. That means that your efforts to change the world
through positive thought and action will be working in a
positive environment instead of the old, decaying, end-of-cycle
environment.
Every step that you take to foster heart-centered
consciousness within yourself and others affects the global
mind atmosphere profoundly as we work towards that tipping
point.
When the global ascension of The Shift happens and the New
Reality blooms, it will become the most wonderful transformation
in recorded history.
It will be remembered as the time when humanity literally
built heaven on earth!

Be The Person You Are
Written by Jean Warner
You are a child of the Most High. The flame of your Source glows inside your heart. For most of Earth mankind it is but a flicker, as we see ourselves as separate from Source. It is impossible for us to be so, but it is our perception. As we change that perception, that flame will expand.
Everything that is, is simply energy. Energy is malleable and constantly changing. It responds to thought, and so as you think, so are you. You see energy in every form that you can imagine. As you imagine, you out-picture the form that your imagination perceives. But it, like us, is only energy in expression. It can be changed.
We are all connected, and every thought goes into the collective consciousness. Many like thoughts going into a group consciousness can help to produce what each person has pictured in his mind. As one person pictures a view of trees outside his window and holds that picture in mind, that thought will slowly permeate the thoughts of others in the area. As the thought spreads into the consciousness of others, it will sprout seeds and trees will start to grow, depending on the belief and strong intention of the ones who imagined that possibility.
Each of us has that creative energy within, but unless we have the faith to maintain the picture we want to manifest, our own uncertainty will thwart the process. A soul with strong intentions and focus may produce his dream on his own, but a multitude with that same intensity can produce miracles. (What is perceived as a miracle is simply the outcome of magnetic attraction, a natural law of nature.) When the power of one becomes the power of many, more miracles happen.
However, to facilitate those miracles, individuals need to realize their power. The flame within each of us is simply the energy of the God Force. We each carry our share of the energy of God, which is in all things. For all things, including humans, are the manifestations of the God Power. We each have that power within us. Each of us can expand that flame of power within our hearts by recognizing who we are. We are powerful beings who have convinced ourselves that we are powerless!
Look at the successful people around you, those who are perceived as successful in a good way or those who are considered bad. Both have recognized the power that lies within them. Those who have allowed others to use their power to dominate or intimidate them have failed to realize the power within themselves. Now is the time to realize that power. We have let ourselves be victimized, simply because we see ourselves as victims. We are not aware of the power within us.
However, people worldwide are waking up to this realization and are starting to take action against the controllers. The balance has begun to shift. It is most important at this time for us to become the powerful majority for good. This does not imply that we should fight violence with violence. It is the power of thought or mind power that can turn the tide. There is a truth to the notion that thoughts are things. For thought is creative energy. And our only foe is “negative” energy. If we can change “negative” energy into “positive” energy, we can change the world. (Actually, Energy is neither positive nor negative; it is simply energy. Yet it can be used in what we would consider a negative or positive way.)
Recognize the power of the mind, of intention, of focus, of direction. And know that the greatest power is love! Love is a misunderstood emotion. It is not an emotion at all. It is God energy. Love is energy in alignment with the God Force within us, and it is all powerful. It is an energy that will guide us in the right direction. Love energy will prevail against all evil, all adversity. Therein lies our strength, our guidance, our right decisions.
Lack of love is what has driven the so-called evil people in the world to make the choices they have made. When one has grown up feeling unloved, he spends his life trying to compensate for the lack of something he knows not of. He often relates power to whatever he feels is missing in his life. He does not know that the respect he tries to gain through control is a useless pursuit. It is kindness that he hungers for. It is understanding that he needs. It is recognition of his value as a person that he longs for. Yet he cannot see this when he has no memory of these things. His negative orientation may not have developed just in this lifetime. It may be the result of circumstances in past lifetimes as well. If these are not dealt with, he lets anger dominate his actions and reactions to a life or lives devoid of the goodness he knows not of.
This does not mean that his bad choices should be allowed by society when they are destructive to others. But society’s ignorance has allowed children to grow up in conditions that generate such troubled personalities. Some out-of-control personalities cannot be changed easily, probably not in one lifetime. And that’s what brought on the reincarnation pattern. But now is the time to make the choice to change ourselves, to change our own attitudes and patterns of living if we want to change the society in which we live. Change starts with us, individually.
We must realize that we can create a society in which children can grow in loving environments. We can change our thoughts and attitudes by asking ourselves what our thoughts and words are creating and whether they are creating a world we can enjoy living in. We must know that we have the power within us to make the choices that will benefit us and others as well. We have let our world get out of control, pointing our fingers at others for the blame. We are the only ones in control of our lives. We are the only ones who can make the changes. It has to start with us! By lifting our consciousness--each one of us--we can create the world we want.
We are all responsible for the chaos the world is in, if only because we have ignored the problems and allowed them to happen? Ask yourself: is my attitude contributing to the problems? If so, what can I do to correct it? Each of us has the power to change the world, one person at a time, until the collective consciousness uplifts and turns things around. Today is the day to start. Look within yourself and ask: Is my influence effecting a peaceful, harmonious environment? If not, start monitoring your thoughts, words, and actions. Purifying your thoughts will affect those around you. Their uplifting will affect those around each of them and will radiate out. Soon the effect will spread exponentially!
You, yes you, can begin to change the world! But together, we can change it faster! Let’s start now.

Destiny is Variable
By Owen Waters
In the Old Reality, things were seen as opposites - black or
white, hot or cold, good or bad, this way or that way. In the
expanded view of New Reality consciousness, life is seen in a
unified way. Opposite sides of the coin are viewed, not as
polar opposites, but rather as just being different aspects of
the one coin.
In the New Reality view of the world, the opposite extremes of
black and white become, instead, endless shades of gray. Hot
and cold become variable degrees of warmth. Good and bad become
different shades of human nature; free of the judgment, hate
and fear that comes with Old Reality, polarized thinking.
In the Old Reality, destiny and free will were seen as
mutually exclusive. The reasoning was that, if destiny exists,
then it controls everything and, therefore, free will does not
exist. On the other hand, you can prove that free will does
exist by making a choice. So, as the thinking goes, if free
will does exist, then there can be no destiny.
But, wait. Perhaps that choice of "free will" was really a
pre-destined one. Perhaps the person was destined to make that
choice all long, so the experience of choice was just an
illusion. At this point, people usually give up on the whole
question because it has turned into one of those brain teasers,
like asking which came first - the chicken or the egg.
Brain teasers keep your mind in an endless loop until you try
stepping back from the situation and seeing it in a wider
perspective. The new, wider perspective allows for the
inclusion of non-materialistic factors. In deciding whether the
chicken or the egg came first, for example, you just have to
step back and see that the Creator designed the chicken to be
self-perpetuating.
When you step back and see destiny and free will from a wider
perspective, you realize that nothing has to be absolute. If
every event in your life were pre-ordained, there would be no
such thing as free will or self-determination. As we do have
free will, destiny cannot be fixed.
Destiny is therefore variable, not fixed. Destiny and free
will both exist as interwoven facets of your life. Like threads
in a tapestry, they interact with each other and blend to form
the outcomes that are the events in your life.
Your destiny is created by plans that you made at a soul level
of consciousness. Before you were born, you made your main plan
for this life. Then, the minute you were born, the rules of the
game demanded that you also get a case of amnesia about the
whole arrangement. Such is the game of life in the physical
realm.
However, at night when you go to sleep, you have the chance to
visit the deepest levels of human consciousness and review how
the original plan is unfolding and make changes to your plan if
desired. When you return to your physical body and awake in the
morning, amnesia strikes again. Within seconds of your
conscious mind returning into your physical brain, you forget
both the surface dreams and the deep experiences of the night.
Amnesia may be a part of the game we are playing in this life,
but inner guidance is always is always available to anyone who
pays attention to it. Your intuition is your link to your soul,
or inner being, which is also linked to the rest of the
universe and all levels of Creation.
You are never left alone to fumble in the darkness of a purely
physical life. Your inner being is always there with you,
expressing itself through the quiet whisperings of intuitive
information. Thanks to this inner compass of knowing, you can
always sense which choice feels right. You can always tell when
your life is running on plan, and you can tell equally well if
you've become temporarily distracted from your plan. You always
have the means to be right on course, or get back on course,
and explore the fascinating themes that make up your life plan.
The most productive use of free will is to explore your true
potential within the themes of your life, thus gaining the
greatest possible experience from your life plan.
Destiny is an influence that comes from your inner plan. There
is nothing absolute about your destiny. It's a pressure which
constantly seeks the best route to unfold into manifestation.
Free will provides the means to manifest that destiny in a way
that provides the learning that you came here to acquire in
this life.
Destiny is variable. It adapts to the circumstances of your
life every second of the day. As destiny unfolds, you feel it
within as a sense of being a part of the flow of life, of
manifesting your potential in the way that you planned for this
day and that you planned for this life.
Destiny is the plan. Free will is the action. Experience is
the result.
That's what being human is all about.

for this life. Then, the minute you were born, the rules of the
game demanded that you also get a case of amnesia about the
whole arrangement. Such is the game of life in the physical
realm.
However, at night when you go to sleep, you have the chance to
visit the deepest levels of human consciousness and review how
the original plan is unfolding and make changes to your plan if
desired. When you return to your physical body and awake in the
morning, amnesia strikes again. Within seconds of your
conscious mind returning into your physical brain, you forget
both the surface dreams and the deep experiences of the night.
Amnesia may be a part of the game we are playing in this life,
but inner guidance is always is always available to anyone who
pays attention to it. Your intuition is your link to your soul,
or inner being, which is also linked to the rest of the
universe and all levels of Creation.
You are never left alone to fumble in the darkness of a purely
physical life. Your inner being is always there with you,
expressing itself through the quiet whisperings of intuitive
information. Thanks to this inner compass of knowing, you can
always sense which choice feels right. You can always tell when
your life is running on plan, and you can tell equally well if
you've become temporarily distracted from your plan. You always
have the means to be right on course, or get back on course,
and explore the fascinating themes that make up your life plan.
The most productive use of free will is to explore your true
potential within the themes of your life, thus gaining the
greatest possible experience from your life plan.
Destiny is an influence that comes from your inner plan. There
is nothing absolute about your destiny. It's a pressure which
constantly seeks the best route to unfold into manifestation.
Free will provides the means to manifest that destiny in a way
that provides the learning that you came here to acquire in
this life.
Destiny is variable. It adapts to the circumstances of your
life every second of the day. As destiny unfolds, you feel it
within as a sense of being a part of the flow of life, of
manifesting your potential in the way that you planned for this
day and that you planned for this life.
Destiny is the plan. Free will is the action. Experience is
the result.
That's what being human is all about.
