We're passing through a gateway now that will carry us further into the dawning of a new time in human consciousness. This new time begins with the recalibration of our lives and our world.
Past, present and future meet at the intersection of energetic events throughout the month of June. This evening’s lunar eclipse falls on the third of three consecutive “supermoons” when the moon is at its closest point to the earth. These powerful energies create shake- ups in any areas where we are stuck; likewise they will accelerate with light-speed the manifestation of our creative intentions.
Many felt the building energies of change throughout May, especially during the annular solar eclipse on May 20. The nature of the changes we experienced depended on where the solar eclipse fell in our personal astrology charts. The influences of the May 20 eclipse will last for days, weeks and months to come, triggering earth changes, sweeping social change and shifts in individual realities. All these are intricately interwoven in the fabric of the future that is just beginning to unfold. Adding to May’s winds of change, today’s lunar eclipse features a tense t-square with Mars and Chiron. This eclipse helps cleanse our emotions with emphasis on how we move forward in life and how we bridge our physical and spiritual landscapes. We will revisit these two questions time and again in coming weeks and months.
Traveling Back to the Future
The paradox of eclipses is that even as they shake us loose from habits and patterns, they have a way of bringing us face to face with the past. Because eclipses run in cycles, they unite us with life themes we initiated during earlier periods of our lives. Today's eclipse picks up with transitions we initiated in 1993. We are able to gain insight into past issues that are resurfacing now as we look back to the events of nearly two decades ago. An archaeological dig of the past is not required for once you recall the dominant themes of two decades ago you will likely see contemporary versions operating in the present moment.
Understanding the Transformative Power of Eclipses
Eclipses are alignments of the sun, moon and earth that happen in pairs and triads every six months. Where an eclipse falls astrologically speaking - its timing and location - determines how and when we feel its influences. Eclipses invariably signal change on the horizon. Most of us hold cellular memories of eclipses we have experienced throughout the history of our earthly incarnations. At times we may have difficulty discerning present-moment influences from those eclipses of long ago that spun out powerful events from their epicenters. These cellular memories ignite within us the fires of ancient evenings and bring us face to face with the journey of our soul - past, present and future.
June’s Transformation Crossroads is about Creativity
During moments when we join hands with our selves throughout time, we are more able to step free of old patterns that are holding us back in this lifetime. Within our own lives and across the globe, these energies are leading to the breakdown of old ways of being.
Without familiar touchstones, we find ourselves increasingly navigating with few points of reference. Such times call for (and support) creative thinking. Areas where we step into new and previously unknown realities receive strong support now. Every step we take in the direction of reinventing ourselves and embracing the new will take wing. As we welcome this new time into our hearts and minds, our manifesting ability is off the charts. This is a good time to examine the intentions and beliefs we hold; it is a good time to examine our highest visions and update them if necessary.
The idea of stepping boldly into an unknown and changeable future may prove a difficult proposition if you're feeling on edge now as layer after layer of the unknown filters in. This is a true rite of passage where we are called upon to strengthen our internal powers of knowing and build a belief in new potentials and capabilities.
Eclipses and Past Life Memories
Eclipses hold the power to awaken memories of other lifetimes. As they trigger the release of old energies, they reunite us with gifts and talents we honed throughout time. In the days and weeks following an eclipse, we may suddenly begin to practice a talent we weren't aware we had. Eclipses also have a way of activating soul contracts. It is possible to meet people who seem like longtime friends; often they are friends of past times returning for an encore to remind us of who we are at levels not readily accessible to our conscious mind.
Things to Look for in Coming Days and Weeks
Eclipses signal major endings and beginnings. These changes can affect many areas of our lives, including jobs, relationships, finances, living situations, health and literally every facet of our existence. How we experience these changes depends on our level of enmeshment in physical reality. If our present identity self resists, change will still happen. When we resist, change tends to erupt like boils on the surface of our present reality. If we welcome and flow with change, it integrates slowly until it seamlessly becomes part of our lives. As we embrace change, we open to many new opportunities and resources flow.
Venus Transit Emphasizes the Sacred Feminine
On June 5 Venus will transit the face of the sun. This is an event that won’t happen again until 2117. During this time, we may experience unparalleled opportunities mingled with moments of intense chaos and challenge. Turnarounds and reversals are possible at this time. We may feel ourselves at times undergoing change so intense it feels like it is akin to the process of death and rebirth. In a sense this is the case as the old within us dies to make way for the new.
During this time of the Venus transit, we are asked to honor the sacred feminine, which centers on love, beauty, values and prosperity. As we embrace these themes we find our lives flowing easily and effortlessly; synchronicities abound.
Identity Shifts and the Power of our Infinite Self
We are asked now to adopt a new identity forged from June's transformative fires. This new aspect of our consciousness holds the power to carry us through the new times ahead. It is important for us to adopt a new and infinitely empowered identity self in order to make the most of the energetic shifts on the horizon.
The Power of Self-Love, Clarity and Transparency
During this time, you may see others around you reacting as pressures mount. Each person will respond differently depending on where they are in their journey and what part of their life is feeling the brunt of the energies. Hold each person in a space of love regardless of what they are saying and doing. Remaining in a place of love with all that comes before you will allow you to move through this time with clarity of intent and transparency of emotions. It is the ego’s misinterpretation of prevailing energies that will place a bull’s eye on your back and make you magnetic to the energetic arrows flying in all directions during this time of intensity.
Be sure to extend this love and understanding to yourself during this time, for it is the nurturing warmth of self-love that will allow you to move through this time free of guilt or self-judgment. Self-love is the foundation that mastery is built upon. It is only by standing strong in your connection with spirit that you will be able to assist others during this passage.
The power of this time courses through your veins, enlivening and empowering you to reach for your highest and best visions. There's literally no time like the present moment.
We are always free to choose an identity self who is experiencing peace and joy -- regardless of the circumstances of our past. We are free to choose an identity aligned with our highest visions. In order to step fully into a positive and empowered identity self, you may need to experience the process of "releasing past negative and limiting identities."
As you undertake this transitional process of releasing past limiting or negative identities, you may find some or all of the following steps helpful:
One) Give yourself permission to withdraw from any realities or interactions associated with old, limiting or negative identities. Even if there are those close to you who are still "invested" in your old identity, you can choose new ways of interacting with them that are aligned with your new identity. It may be necessary for a time to limit your interaction until you are strongly aligned and centered in your new identity. In time, others will learn to interact with the perspective of your new identity.
Two) Allow and welcome the changes your new identity brings into your life. Understand that a change in identity often equals a change of vibration. In accordance with the Law of Attraction, a change of vibration effectively de-magnetizes some connections in your life while magnetizing new ones. If you shift to a new identity, you may find yourself drawn to a new career, a new course of study, new friends, activities, a new diet and exercise regimen, or other new ways of being.
Three) Open to explore new areas of experience and expression. When you undergo an "identity shift," you become more closely aligned with new and previously unknown aspects of yourself. This is why you choose to experience new identities in the first place -- to learn about yourself and access new realms of experience. It is likely your new identity self will bring you into resonance with talents and abilities you have acquired throughout your arc of lifetimes but have not yet discovered in your present lifetime. As these new talents reveal themselves, follow your excitement and passion to explore whatever realms of experience and expression you feel drawn to.
Four) Allow yourself to embrace and accept times of uncertainty. Times of transition and change don't have to be times of depression and anxiety. Instead, they can be times of great anticipation and joy, times filled with abundant opportunities for reshaping your reality and perceiving and adopting new ways of being.
Five) Affirm that as you open to and receive the abundance of the universe, you are infinitely more capable of assisting others, including those closest to you who may initially feel threatened or upset by the changes you are making.
Six) Build into your transitional bridging identity self (and all future identity selves) a wise, nurturing component that loves and knows how to nurture every aspect of your being into a place of healing. This nurturing presence may represent the essence of a wise and loving guide that is an aspect of your higher self. Whenever old voices tell you that you are doomed to repeat painful patterns of the past, invite this nurturing aspect of your consciousness to sit with the parts of your self that are still playing "old tapes." This nurturing aspect of your new identity self can dialogue with these older aspects of your consciousness, or simply sit with them, radiating love and understanding.
Seven) Expand your awareness and beliefs to embrace the idea that "identity selves" are designed to be changed, released and adopted in whatever way is necessary for you to grow and progress throughout your lifetime. Just as each generation that incarnates on the Earth plane adds to, improves upon and heals the consciousness and creations of the previous generation, each new identity self adds to, improves and heals the identity selves that came before it. Likewise, each identity self sets down a foundation and creates the causes of new identities that expand consciousness in new and exciting directions.
Eight) Learn to program desired characteristics into all your new identities through intention, will and desire. You may already have characteristics in mind that you would like to adopt. You may wish to be more intuitive, more creative, more compassionate, more giving, more discerning, etc. You may also choose to adopt characteristics of people you admire, or characteristics of those you have read about. Expand your repertoire of desired qualities by becoming an observer. Observe your world, find what feels peaceful and whole. Observe individuals who you admire, who radiate a peaceful, loving vibration. Study the identity selves of creative and expansive people you know, study biographies of those you admire and wish to emulate. What do these individuals believe about themselves? Find words to describe the characteristics of those you admire. Describe for yourself the nature of their identity self. How does it different from yours? How is it similar?
Nine) Refrain from judging past experiences you may consider "dark." Embrace all your experiences, keeping in mind that the extent of darkness always equals the extent of light. Learn to appreciate and express gratitude for all your experiences, for the depths of understanding they have given you. In this way, you are able to transform every circumstance into a joyful opportunity for growth and transformation.
Choosing an Identity Self aligned with Joy and Peace
Once you have released limiting and negative identities, you are free to align with the version of yourself that is living along a timeline of joy and peace. In much the same way that you may have previously seen yourself as "one who experiences pain and difficulty," you can now choose to see yourself as "one who experiences joy and peace." You can choose to adopt the identity of "one who loves and is loved," or "one who is abundant and giving," or even as one who is "ecstatically creative and giving birth to great works of art and other forms of expression that help enliven and liberate human consciousness."
Choosing an Identity Aligned with your Highest Visions
It is possible to hold a vision for your life year after year without seeing it manifest in your physical reality. Many people hold themselves in a place of judgment, feeling there must be something "wrong" when their dreams seem to elude them. There is nothing "wrong," though you may need to adjust your perspective to manifest your vision. We will offer here some insights into how you can transform this circumstance.
One of the most common reasons people fail to manifest their dreams is that their current "identity self" is not aligned with their highest vision. If the vision your higher self brings you is that you are an energy healer but your present identity is that you are a clerk at a fast food restaurant, you have some changes to make in your identity.
As long as the self with which you are strongly identified is vastly different from the self that is experiencing your highest vision, you will go through your days with a feeling of being "outside looking in," with your deepest desires perpetually beyond your reach This does not have to be the case. By making a simple adjustment in perspective, you can begin living your highest vision within your present moment. By identifying with anything you choose to bring into your reality, you make it "real" in your world.
We offer here a process for adopting a new identity self aligned with your highest vision.
One) Enter a quiet, meditative state. Allow the highest vision for your life to come into your mind. Hold this vision in a steady focus, seeing it in as much detail as possible. Feel what it is like to be experiencing this reality. What does it look like? How are you interacting with the people around you? What activities do you participate in?
Two) Ask yourself, who is the self experiencing this reality? How is this self different from your present-moment self? What would you have to believe to be this self who is experiencing your highest vision? How do these beliefs differ from your present-moment beliefs?
Three) Observe the differences between this self and your present-moment self. Move back and forth between the self experiencing your highest vision and your present-moment self. Step fully into the feeling state of each self, observing each in detail. Continue to work with the process of moving back and forth between the two until you have a clear understanding of their differences, their similarities or harmonizing points, and can move easily between the two.
Four) Set your intention to adopt the self who is experiencing your highest vision as your identity self. Allow this identity to become your focus self.
Five) As you move through your days, allow this new identity self to inform your actions. Observe your thoughts. Observe how you relate to the world from the perspective of this new identity.
This is a process you can use over and over again as your highest vision continues to grow and evolve in your journey of becoming.
The fires of transformation burn hot and bright as we enter a time of energetic shifts that will hasten sudden change, clearings, openings, reversals and much more.
This gateway is rife with the kind of opportunities that can only be forged by peeling away the ill-fitting veneers of the past, and cleansing, healing and loving ourselves at deepening levels. This combined with a willingness to face the dawning of a new time with unflinching honesty, clarity of vision and a detachment in outcomes that allows us to trust in the divine wisdom of the universe, will carry us seamlessly into the stratosphere of expanded consciousness.
Cosmic Influences Stoke the Fires of Transformation
New energies bouncing around the cosmos are accelerated now by the Beltaine/Samhain gateway, the Wesak full Moon May 5/6, the annular solar eclipse May 20/21, a partial lunar eclipse June 4 (which includes a Sagg/Gemini grand cross), a transit of Venus on June 5-6, the cancer solstice June 20/21 and Uranus squaring Pluto June 23-24.
The Wesak full Moon is the second of three consecutive super moons that began in April. These are truly potent emotional portals that hold the power to bring us into connection with our deepest emotions. This includes feelings of joy and bliss, the trauma of old emotional wounds - all our emotional highs and lows.
The Break-Down of Old Patterns of Being
Old ways of being and old patterns of energy will break down as we move through this time. We will alternately experience new levels of intensity that transport us into new and expansive timelines and times when we feel ourselves mired more deeply than ever in the past. This feeling of being more deeply entrenched in past energies is just the by-product of a new awareness that allows us to experience and perceive in new ways. In a sense, we enter this time reborn into our own lives as newly awakened empaths and psychics drawing our first breath in a searing light that burns through the past and turns it to ash in our gaze. The ashes of all that has been will fertilize new energetic fields.
Multi-Dimensional Dreams and ‘Image Maps’
It will not be uncommon at this time for us to awaken from dreams to find we have brought back with us questions that speak to the core of our being. The answers they bring will cast a wide sphere of influence on our future.
If we are in a relationship, we may ask ourselves if this is the person we want to spend our life with; if we are experiencing health issues, we may ask if we are ready to end our present lifetime or if we have more to contribute within this timeframe. We may find our attention drawn to crucial points in time where we chose one course over another and ask ourselves what if I'd chosen the other way? These questions are not meant to shadow us with self-doubt but rather to provide us with questions to help us awaken to previously overlooked potentials that will help us fashion the next phase of our spiritual quest.
Multi-dimensional or multilayered dreams hold messages for our daily lives but also speak to other levels of our being, offering glimpses of portals and gateways that contain "image maps" encoded with the symbols of our innermost being. By bringing our focus to these inner maps, we're able to step past the glue of everyday life that binds us to "karmic reruns" holding us in a cyclical and patterned existence.
Past Life Echoes and Meetings in Consciousness with 'Friends from other Times'
Meetings with others in consciousness is a signpost of this time. We might meet in dreams or waking consciousness with those who can help us complete unfinished business. Our higher self orchestrates these meetings so it can speak to us about aspects of our being we may be holding at bay or those aspects we may have simply lost touch with.
Also during this time we may receive visions of "memories" that are not from our current lifetime. We may meet others who are new to us but seem very familiar or we may look at a longtime friend and see their face transformed to the face of a friend from another time. Past life influences become strong as the veils between dimensions thin. We may feel drawn to take up a new art form or hone a skill we are not aware we had. The present gateway magnifies all that is within us and heightens our awareness of other timeframes in which we exist, allowing greater communication and sharing with our other "selves."
Welcome Change and Expect the Unexpected
The only thing for certain now is the unpredictable nature of this passage. Change, upheaval and sudden shifts will rule in coming weeks.
While rapid and constant change can be unsettling, it can also be counted on to offer us an initiation into new timelines that bring us into deeper communion with our higher selves. During this time, we will be presented with opportunities to choose love at a deeper level (starting with ourselves), to embrace our shadow, heal our physical body and our sacred wound and open to expansive timelines and their accompanying adventures and opportunities. Old energies that have held us back will crumble as we enter a new stratosphere within our own being.
Challenges Give Wings to our Journey of Becoming
We're more able to step into deeper places within ourselves during this time of transformation. Challenges loom on the horizon but rest assured whatever obstacles present themselves during this time will be encoded with instructions showing us how we can transform them into the wings of our becoming.
There are signposts that signal our arrival into fifth-dimensional consciousness. Love and kindness are two signposts upon which our foundation for inter-dimensional experience is based. Love is the highest vibration in the universe; kindness is a natural manifestation of love. Embracing and cultivating love and kindness carries us through the gates of higher dimensions.
We may have a sense of knowing and the ability to access certain forms of higher knowledge but without the ability to live from our heart, we are unable to realize this knowledge in our daily life. Without love, higher knowledge is stillborn and unrealized.
Healing Emotions Allows Communion with our Soul
Practicing love and kindness unites our conscious mind with our heart. When we allow ourselves to experience our feelings, we are able to sit with feelings that may not be comfortable at first. In time, we work through emotional baggage and are able to experience emotional communion with our soul. Our soul expresses itself in feeling states; our mind communicates in words. We need both working together to enter a state of oneness within ourselves.
Getting our conscious mind to embrace our soul may be difficult if we are overly identified with physical reality.
Releasing Physical-Based Identities
When our identity - who we believe ourselves to be – is solely derived from that which is measurable by the conscious mind, the tendency is to gaze with suspicion on anything we can't physically measure. Since the soul resides in the realm of the unseen and speaks to us in feelings through the doorway of the subconscious, a conscious mind entrenched solely in physical reality distrusts the feeling states transmitted via the soul. Without the soul’s loving and gentle guidance, the mind is able to rationalize most anything. This sometimes sends one’s life down paths that are further and further from its purpose.
An identity that embraces concepts such as meditation, natural healing, service, an active creative imagination and unseen realms is able to free itself of the shackles of physical reality. When we free ourselves from enslavement to the physical, we have much more to share with others. When we are free, we tend to act more from soul desires than from the struggle to survive. When we are free, we love more and treat others with kindness.
Asking for Assistance Opens the Door to Spiritual Wisdom
Identity is one window through which to understand how the soul and mind work together. The conscious mind in some individuals naturally opens to the soul due to spiritual understandings acquired over many lifetimes. Often a physical event inspires one to reach out and ask for assistance. When one reaches beyond the physical for help, they gain access to the rich storehouse of wisdom contained in their higher self. This knowledge and wisdom is held in escrow until they're ready to receive it.
This wisdom is accessed when the conscious mind “asks” for help through the heart feelings and opens to receive it. This is also a formula for manifesting desires into physical reality. The moment our identity shifts so we see ourselves as “one who asks for and receives divine guidance” we begin to access all that our soul holds in “escrow”.
Receiving and Right Use of Trust
The "opening to receive” part of this equation can pose a barrier if there are trust issues. Left to its own devices, the conscious mind places trust according to its own criteria. For example, we depend on another person so we must "love" them. And because we love them, we must "trust" them. If, at some point, a person proves unworthy of our trust, the conscious mind then computes that trust itself is not worthy. The fact is, each person can be trusted to act in accordance with their level of spiritual understanding within the moment. No more and no less. It may be difficult for the conscious mind to arrive at this conclusion without the loving guidance of the soul.
Misunderstandings around the issue of trust are one of the major reasons why some people distrust their soul and higher self. When we banish trust, our sole source of information and guidance is the conscious mind.
When a person misunderstands trust, this often triggers feelings of anger and betrayal. Anger bars access to the soul, the higher self, and the soul’s rich storehouse of wisdom and knowledge.
Discernment Teaches Right Use of Trust
Practicing discernment allows us to clear any misunderstandings we have around the issue of trust. Discernment is a province of the union of the mind and soul. When our mind practices the right use of trust, it understands that we can always trust the love and guidance of our soul and higher self. A conscious mind that opens to this source of loving guidance is able to enter feeling states that allow deepening spiritual communion. It is this communion that allows one to live a heartfelt existence. The natural outgrowth of a heartfelt life is the practice of love and kindness.
Love and Kindness Unite us with our Soul
When we unite our mind and our soul, we perceive how our words and actions affect others. We see how a leaf quivers at our touch, how the energy of our words affects all those we encounter. A conscious mind with this awareness chooses a path in life with the intent to harm none. This is the path of the heart and the path of the soul. When we see with our heart, we perceive our path and our truth within each moment. All that is not aligned with our path falls away. This is discernment.
Through the practice of discernment and right use of trust, we are able to develop a stronger communion with our soul and higher self. Love and kindness, as the outer manifestation of this communion, hold the power to carry us into the fifth-dimension and beyond.
We have much help here on Earth. Legions of guides, light beings and angel helpers inhabit the multi-dimensional realm of the unseen. Because they exist beyond the physical, they are able to guide us through times of spiritual transformation and to assist when our soul ventures into other realms. Much has been said of our otherworldly guides and we will not expand on that here for there is another type of helper that we wish to speak about.
Spirit Helpers as Aspects of our own Consciousness
For our purposes here we will draw a distinction between our otherworldly guides and those that are advanced facets of our own consciousness. In the course of our journey here, we are many – made up of many facets that sparkle and reflect light in various degrees and forms. Some aspects of our consciousness awaken and come online to enter a mastery phase quicker than others. Recognizing other aspects still in need of guidance and assistance, these spirit helpers set about guiding us through our needed understandings.
Spirit Helpers Accelerate Ascension
When one of our aspects awakens, the course of our ascension is accelerated and the path cleared for other parts of our consciousness to enter the awakening phase.
These spirit helpers are anchored to the physical through our own being yet they largely exist in other timeframe dimensions. These aspects serve the purpose of bridging us into greater communion with our soul and higher self. As a bridging entity, they exist in both realms and are accessible to us as we go about our daily lives.
Old Souls are Here to Anchor the New Time
Old souls especially have numerous spirit helpers. These souls are incarnated at this time to help bridge humanity into the new time. To assist with this transition, they arrived here with a full complement of spirit helpers that help bridge them to their higher self. As above, so below.
Our wise and knowing spirit helpers have understandings that are relevant to the world we currently inhabit by virtue of resonance and spiritual lessons. Some of these aspects are incarnated into other timeframes, while others are younger aspects from our current lifetime. Some are from our future both from within this lifetime and beyond.
Spirit Helpers bring Glimpses of other Timelines
It is easy to tell when our spirit helpers are speaking to us. These are times when we glimpse ourselves moving along an alternate timeline. The timelines revealed to us are realities compatible with our soul contract for this lifetime.
Spirit helpers also guide us to encounters or events that change the course of our life. They sometimes lead us on internet searches that bring us to a new idea, concept, or person. They drop books off shelves in our vicinity or bring us to notice symbols in our daily experience that hold special importance for us. Spirit helpers bring us into fields of resonance needed for specific types of healing. Some helpers teach us to use our light to facilitate healing for ourselves at all levels. They also direct us to knowledge and insight that assists us in healing our sacred wound.
Spirit Helpers Assist us with Artistic Creations
Our spirit helpers assist us with creative endeavors. This is their favorite venue – helping us to awaken latent and as yet undiscovered talents and abilities. Sometimes they show us how to link diverse abilities to synthesize a new talent. They teach us the words to songs drawn from the deep well of our soul. They teach us to create works of art encoded with our soul’s signature, and to create poetry and other writing we gift to the world. Sometimes they help us access “downloads” so profound it feels we are taking dictation from our soul. Spirit helpers teach us to shine our light on the path ahead so we can consciously choose the shape and course of our destiny.
Spirit Helpers Orient us to Dreamscapes of our Future
Our spirit helpers orient us in our sleep states to dreamscapes where we begin to inhabit the world that is the future of our own lifetime as well as future lifetimes. Some have begun to dream of seemingly idyllic settings that feel very different from past or present times. In these dream worlds, the realities we have known no longer exist and a new time has begun. One hallmark of this time is the instant manifestation of our thoughts, feelings and desires into physical form. Our dreams are a testing ground where we can learn to work with the instant realization of our intentions in a protected space before experiencing their rapid materialization into physical reality.
Without realizing it, we sometimes meet our spirit helpers in dream states. At times we may have the experience of blending with them and seeing the dream through their eyes. When we meet our spirit helpers in a dream state, we feel a sense of deep and profound love. Years of trauma and suffering can melt away during these encounters. A dream meeting with a spirit helper can be a precurser to meeting an incarnated being with whom we hold a powerful soul contract.
Telepathy with Spirit Helpers in Sleeping and Waking Dream States
Our spirit helpers are always with us, just as we are always with them – working with them in dream states at first until we sufficiently awaken to telepathically commune with them in conscious waking dream states and times of deep meditation. Our helpers are always speaking to us. They are always ready to play a greater role in our own lives if ask them to. When we reach a certain state of consciousness, our spirit helpers come more fully into play, speaking with us and offering the gift of their wisdom and guidance within each moment.
