The Only Thing Consistent Is Change

The only thing consistent in this great world of ours, is change. It is known in physics and in science, that nothing stays the same, that everything is in a state of flux, meaning moving from one energy state to another. This is also understood by philosophers who studied Plato as well as Hermes. And this is an important point to come to terms with in our own lives.

Everything in nature reflects into your life, for we are all reflections of one another, including that of nature. If everything is in a state of flux, that means it is either increasing in vibration, excitement or light…or decreasing in vibration. In life, this means you are either evolving into a better, more empowered state, or becoming more stagnant, more entrenched in your beliefs, and therefore cycles or actions. So, this brings about and interesting point.

Raising Your Vibration

If you are moving to a higher vibration, then you are connecting to a higher energy, and shifting yourself, and this is by your will and actions. If you do not do this, it means you are moving into a more dense or stagnant state, and implies that you are being acted upon by the forces of this world, instead of freeing yourself from the bonds that hold you.

You never stay in the same place. You are either becoming better, or more rigid. Those who know and understand this often seek out tools, advice, and activities to help overcome stagnation in life, so not only are you in greater control of your future, but you can help those that you care about as well. And in reality, this is a primal desire within every being. You are all filled with an innate desire to be better, to be more, to create more, and to be more effective. No one came into this world wishing to be mediocre or less. All of us, in our hearts strive to be better.

Practice Kindness

A great way to raise your vibration is to meditate. One of the most overlooked tools in your arsenal for creating positive change in life, is to just BE KIND TO YOURSELF! We often think of being kind to other people, and this is essential in your progression as a Light Worker and overcoming your own stagnation. For when you help others, you also see where you are getting in your own way. At the same time, it is easier to be kind and helpful to others than it is to be kind to yourself. Being nice to yourself, recharges your batteries, and gives you the fuel you need to increase your vibration and overcome the difficulties that can arise from life's experiences.

In my dedication to becoming better myself, and to helping others to do the same, we are offering a free gift. One of our more popular meditations. Please feel free to listen and use this and share it with your friends. And may your light shine!

Solar Eclipse

So, once again we are on the cusp of a solar eclipse, which will occur tomorrow, July 1st. As with all eclipses, it is a time of diminished light on the Earth.

Every solar eclipse has its own flavor and influence. This solar eclipse has a grand square with no supportive grand trine (a square is where planetary influences on our shadows are stronger, and the grand square is the harshest of all. Trines are where planetary influences support our strengths and virtues). As such, it is a time to continue the course, and not make big changes. This grand square can create sudden changes that can impact all aspects of your world. The planets involved include the Sun, the Moon, Saturn, Uranus and Pluto. These planets influence your sense of well-being, your emotions, your life lessons, sudden and rapid changes, and intensity of karmic cycles. All currently in unsupportive aspects, bringing in hard lessons from past karmic cycles.

With Mars also in the square to Neptune, action taken could easily get confused or slip into the realm of wishful thinking, with clarity of insight obscured. The Mercury, Jupiter square could easily trigger thoughts of not being supported by those closest to you. Simply put, the solar eclipse on July 1st is an inauspicious time. Try not to make any big decisions. There are several supportive aspects, but the difficult aspects far outweigh the supportive. This will pass quickly however, and within a week, you should find some relief. Spend the 4th of July weekend with family and good friends, sharing good times.

In all things, there are cycles of increase and decrease. And while we are in the time of the highest light, summer, the solar eclipse is a major shift from light for a few days. Use your protection rituals, stay focused on prayer and gratitude and joy!

More Gratitude

Gratitude is an interesting concept.

Gratitude is one of those things where we tend to make a list when we think of it. We focus on family, friends, things we've done. Just about everything we are grateful for is about a relationship. And when someone else is down, we tend to remind them of people that appreciate them, and this is powerful, because love flows on the wings of gratitude. And love is transformational.

But the essence of gratitude is a very deep concept, and its not as simple as we perceive it…as with all esoteric teachings. True gratitude has to go beyond external sources. It has to go beyond relationships with anything in the physical world. Defining your well being by anything in the physical world, including family and friends, is one of the greatest ways we limit ourselves in life. Just think about it, anytime we define our wellbeing on anything outside of us, our friends, our possessions, even our work, if we lose that thing, we are diminished. Instead of us being in control and empowered in our lives, we have given our power away. So while we have it, we are grateful, and in losing it, we are diminished.

The source of gratitude must be something greater, that all of these external expressions are a reflection of. These internal sources of gratitude are the true source of your well being. For example, when I wrestled with this question and I started to negate external sources as defining my well being, it became more and more difficult to find something to be grateful for, because we are so programmed by our senses and experiences and the world at large. I eventually moved to a place of deep meditation. And a line from the "Pattern on the Trestleboard" (I believe by Paul Foster Case), echoed in my consciousness. "I recognize the manifestation of the undeviating justice in all the circumstances of my life." I was reminded again that everything in my life was the result of all of my actions, thoughts and beliefs. That I had in essence, by default or by will, brought myself to this point in my life, whatever point, for good or for bad. And the more I recognize this truth, and accept the actions that have not supported me and the life I want to create, the more I can engage my will, and by this awareness, make better choices, take more supportive actions. This is an incredibly freeing and powerful place, because it means, I have full control over my life and my future. And this is something for which I can be truly grateful. I can choose to accept the guidance and support from God and my Guides, and act upon that guidance to create a better place.

I encourage you to accept the blessings of Light that are ever present. Take an honest introspection of your present circumstances, and actions you have taken that have hurt you and that have supported you. And accept the strength, courage, and inexhaustible Love of God. It is by your will, you transform your life.

You know you need a break when…

When you go shopping, and you leave the groceries in the car.

When you put the right sock on the left foot…

When you show up to work and someone tells you your shirt is on backwards and inside out.

When you get lost on your way home.

When you can't remember what you ordered at the restaurant.

When you start calling your family members by the wrong name.

When your dreams are more about work than fun.

When you don't realize you're thinking out loud.

When the kids homework is too difficult to figure out.

When your forehead bares imprint of your watch.

When you show up at a party and 2 other people are wearing the same top.

When you show up for "Wicked" the day after the show.

When you can't remember where you parked your car.




Remember to give yourself a break. Be kind to yourself. This world has become very fast, even stressful, with internal pressures, that most of us don't even begin to comprehend. Spiritual energies are higher than ever before, pushing us to make choices, to choose the light or to be aware of where we don't. It is getting harder and harder to deny where we need to grow.

But in this life, it is easy to focus on what's not working, or what's wrong. And this life is not about what's wrong. Its about the great things we are here to create. And we only create from our strength, intuition, and inspiration.

We all have a genius. We all have a greatness. May yours shine!

Love and Hugs,
John

Words

I want to share with you a concept, that is so powerful, every person who has understood its nature has had immediate and dramatic results.



Napolean Hill said, what you think is what you create. Jesus said, if you think of it, it’s as if you have already done it. Hermes said the same thing, using far more complicated and detailed explanations. Even quantum physicists talk about this, and I think this is a pretty well accepted concept; that what you think does impact your life.

Sooooo, to simplify the concept that your thoughts create your life, look at it this way. That which you are attached to, you are passionate about, and your thoughts are constantly flowing this energy, to the extent that they impact your actions and thus your life. But I’m sure you have already heard all of this.

What I would like to do is offer something more, which has it’s foundation in this concept and is something that will help you to take even greater control over your life and world.

Did you know that your WORDS create reality! This is a spiritual law, thus true for everyone: Creation is formed through RAYS. The first ray is Letters, in very simplistic terms these are shapes that are used to create forms. The second ray is Numbers, which define the frequency, or vibration of the forms. This defines the dimension, or density of creation. The third ray is Sound, which vibrates the letters and numbers into a cohesive structure. Look at it this way, every thought is defined in words, and these words create an image in your mind. This image is form and the basis for your actions.

The words spoken flow from you to the ears of those around and impact the thoughts of others, thus influencing their lives. And yes the words of others directly impact your thoughts as well. This is why the company you keep is so influential in your life. If you want to change your life, you must change the nature of the relationships and even eliminate the relationships that reinforce destructive patterns; at least until you have gained mastery over these patterns in your thoughts and deeds.

Secondly, the words you speak create forms which impact the energy surrounding your body, actually placing the images of your thoughts into your aura. This is how you create interactions with people in the world. This is how everyone knows if you are feeling bad or good, or how most psychics are able to read you and tell you what is happening in your life. They are able to sense your energy and thoughts picking up on the images you are sending out through your aura.

Thirdly, the words you speak actually vibrate your body. They shake the very muscle, flesh and bones of your physical body! In doing so, they transfer the vibration of the words you speak into your body. This changes the vibration of your form to match the frequency of the words you are using. The more you use words of a specific frequency, the more this impacts and changes your life. This is the foundation behind affirmations.

However, I would like to take this a step further and state that anything you say directly impacts you 10 times more than anyone else. So much so, that every criticism and judgment you express directly creates that energy in your life. Conversely every encouraging and empowering thing you express enhances your own ability to transform your life to something greater.

The vocalized word form itself is enough to impact the physical world. However, when it is compounded by the power of your emotions, which then greatly increase the density of the form, the impact on your actions become obvious. Emotions are the heaviest thing in the world; nothing is heavier. Nothing can stop you faster or more definitively than negative emotional desire or attachment. Nothing has greater influence in your life than your emotions, especially those of doubt, unworthiness, fear and rejection. Positive emotions, light and passion create strength, faith, love, joy and self-worth, and this directly fuels your thoughts and words in to actions. Therefore, positive emotions are the fire that fuels all creation. Combined with positive thoughts and words you will quickly open new doors for a better life.

It is because of this spiritual truth, that the ancients said “So it is said, so shall it be done!”

Speak only of things that are TRUE or that you want in your future.

Clearing Your Space

While the subject of prosperity and the tools necessary are many, a few tools are foundational. For example, being bold and taking immediate action on your desires. Indeed it is better to take quick action and make a mistake, than to take no action at all, for that guarantees failure. Positive mental attitude and good self image sustains mental health, which overrides fatigue and burnout, while it also opens doorways of opportunities. And probably a more subtle foundational piece, which is often disregarded, is organization and cleanliness.

Energy

Everything is energy. This is fairly common knowledge at this point. And everything is a reflection of everything else. Clutter, disorganization in your environment, is a reflection of the clutter and internal resistance to your natural flow. While physical abundance comes from interactions with other people, the energy of prosperity is a river which flows through the layers of our consciousness, which defines our actions. This, in turn, impacts how we interact with others.

A disorganized and chaotic environment is a symptom of internal blockage to your flow. And this has been taught by many, especially in the field of feng shui. But from an esoteric point of view, it is not enough to just clean and organize your space, you must clean and organize your own internal energy.
This can be done with meditation, proper eating, breathing, and taking days for play and joy. As we do our own internal spiritual work, we clear up our attachments and our frustrations, letting go of these distractions, and freeing us to create, according to our joys and passion, our true strength.

Home

In addition, I offer another piece of information. It is important to energetically clean your space. And so I present several methods that are highly effective. Cleaning and organizing your home and cleaning the energy of your space, will help to relieve pressure that will allow you to flow more effectively and consistently in life, while you are doing your internal work.

How to Clear Your Space

Courage

Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the Earth. And in so doing, through their lives here, they will eventually learn, that the only way to create change, and the life you deserve is to be bold. To be courageous. To go for your dreams!

Take a look at the life of any great person, and they dared to step out into the world and make a change. Many people confuse meekness with humility, and often confuse humility with simply being kind. Most people can agree that a humble person does not talk about himself or brag (this is false pride). But true humility is something far different. It is to accept your purpose and your mission in life as agreed to between you and God. In other words, being the absolute best that you can be, despite the fears and doubts of those around you. Gandhi is the most recent Master to live this example, as did Mother Theresa.

Most of us in this world focus on being kind, compassionate, having a good life, and caring for others. And this brings us much credit in the form of positive spiritual energy. Which then can be utilized in times of trouble and need, when we get help from unexpected sources. Indeed miracles can happen this way. However, to live the life of a Magus or Divinely empowered human being, is to create miracles and overcome seemingly insurmountable odds consistently. This is done by harnessing the power of Love and Grace and Kindness by the Strength of Faith and the Courage and Strength of God. In essence, the TRUTH about yourself, that you are a Divine Being, with all of the power and qualities thereof.

As practical application, courage and strength is best described as being bold, and is best harnessed by accepting your own greatness, your own qualities and virtues, and acting upon your dreams and desires that do not cause harm to anyone.

Remember, the very first commandment of God is to be fruitful and multiply. We are created in the image of God, and carry the strength, the love and power of God to create in harmony with all things.


“Fortune favors the bold” (Virgil)

It is far easier to discuss things and debate and contemplate, than it is to actually take action. These are the distractions that block us from our own true greatness. You came to this world as a Divine Being, with knowledge that only you have about a particular skill or quality. You are a unique and perfected expression of the Great Divine, and the more you awaken and express this quality, the better the world becomes. In these times of great change, those who dare to embrace their own greatness and share it with the world, can empower thousands.

I leave you with a quote, from perhaps the greatest philosopher of the 19th century, Eliphas Levi. “Nothing can resist the will of man when he knows the truth and wills the good.”
