Catastrophe or Rebirth?

In my recent newsletter I write about the increasing optimism I feel at this time of increasing chaos in our world. How can this be? How can I feel so good amidst news of economic collapse, political chaos and impending environmental disasters? Well, I don't feel good about these things happening ... but I do think that these signs of breakdown are actually the signs of a breakthrough.  I do not see it in terms of "things going terribly wrong": what I see is a world ready to shake off its old ways and a new world waiting in the wings to be born. I see this as a necessary part of our evolutionary growth, both as individuals and as a species. I see that it is time for the lies and illusions that have kept us asleep for millennia to crumble so that we can see the truth of who we are and what we are creating. 

Painful and disturbing as some of these changes are, it is our task to stay open amidst the transition to a new way of being. Many years ago I foresaw that the world would split in two, with one half falling into destruction and the other half reforming itself as the new paradise. I also saw that what defined which one of these two worlds we would experience was our own state of consciousness. Quantum physics tells us that everything is connected and that what we observe is dependent on the observer. It is how we perceive things that brings them into existence. If we choose to see with fear, we will create a world of darkness. But if we choose to see with an open heart, if we choose to stay open as love even amidst the horror, then we will bring light to dispel the shadows and the world will be illuminated by our love. It's as simple as that! 

If each of us has the courage to do this even when our own lives appear to be threatened in so many ways, then the collective vibration of humanity will be uplifted so that a shift in global consciousness can take place. And when we move into a higher state of consciousness, who knows what the outcome will be in terms of how the world functions? Could it be that humanity finally learns to live with each other in harmony and peace? Could it be that all our interactions become transparent and we all work towards the good of the greater whole? Could it be that unconditional love becomes the most important thing?

These are no new-age pipe dreams but a very real possibility for us all .. if we choose to believe it. More and more quantum scientists, spiritual teachers and consciousness researchers are all coming to the same conclusion ... that the world is as we choose to create it. And there is increasing evidence that we are moving into a grand re-visioning time for the whole of humanity and the earth, a time during which we truly do have the potential to transform our reality. It is an amazing time to be alive ... and we have each chosen to be here at this time! 

Let us not believe the fear-mongering of the politicians, the media and the unconscious thoughts of those who cannot see clearly. Yes, there are serious changes to the way things are ... but let us choose to celebrate these changes and to shine the light of our love in small and big ways wherever we are and wherever we go. Each of us can be an active agent of change! By choosing Love over Fear always and in all ways, we can play an active part in the rebirth of our beloved community of earth-dwellers. This is what we have come here for .. and we are truly the ones we have been waiting for!

You and I are here to remember who we truly are ... and to remind others. Let us do so with humility and grace, with certainty and courage ... we are here to remember our divinity and to celebrate our place in the grand scheme of Life! 

May the fire in your heart burn as bright as mine does in these changing times ...

I love you,
