The Courage to LOVE…no matter what!
Anyone who follows my work and messages has heard me speak frequently about stepping out of judgement, the importance of love, and the need to forgive. Now as we enter 2022 these messages are even more relevant. We have entered an unprecedented time of potential and it is up to each one of us to take this potential to its highest level. We are being invited to be the light and live in a state of love. While many of the things you are seeing around you may not suggest this outpouring of light, it is important to remember that things must be dismantled to be rebuilt and that shows up as the storm before the calm.
We have just been through two years of restrictions, separation, and segregation; many families have split apart, and many individuals are finding themselves more alone than ever before. It has become a world of us and them, regardless of which us and which them you fall into.
Yet these challenges are the very thing that allows us to take steps forward into a more loving state. It is easy to be loving when there is no challenge. Just as it is easy to be peaceful when there is no chaos. But each challenge gives us the opportunity to step up and practice being the light. And Mother Earth is encouraging us in this endeavour as she continues her own journey to ascension.
Below I have summarized some of the energetic themes for 2022:
Be the Lighthouse. It is time to stand strong in our love and light and shine that light upon others! There are many of you who have kept your light tightly under wraps in hopes no one will notice it. Now is the time to find the courage to allow it to shine. This year will continue to be challenging but also filled with opportunities to practice unconditional love. To have the courage to love regardless of a difference of opinion, on ANY subject, not just the ones that are easy to work through. This does not mean you must agree with everyone else’s opinion, that is part of the interesting experience of being human. Rather, it is remembering that your opinion is just that, an opinion. Look back through history and notice how many facts have evolved as more information becomes available, which in turn shifts opinions. So, when you are tempted to dismiss someone for a differing opinion, remind yourself that they have as much right to their opinion as you do to yours, and shine your love and light on the situation.
Listen to Nature. As I sat by the ocean watching the waves repeatedly crash against the rocks and recede again, I was nudged to speak to her and see what wisdom she could impart. Her message was clear that she simply did what she did without intent for the impact it had on others. She did not create waves with the intention to crash against the rocks, just as she did not blow up a storm intending to sink a ship. She simply did what she did, and if someone was looking for that experience, she welcomed them. All of nature operates from this principle of simplicity and integrity, simply doing what it does, inviting us into harmony, but not judging us for choosing something else. Nature does not spend her time in fear of what might happen, or in judgement of others for doing something different. Are you ready to listen to nature?
Nature is asking us to anchor love onto the planet as our contribution to the process of the Earth’s ascension. We cannot anchor love onto the planet if we are in constant judgement of our fellow citizens of Planet Earth.
Rapid and Significant Change will continue to shake things up. Sometimes that may seem scary even if it is filled with opportunity. A very important part of this process is to stay in your heart and continually intend the changes to be harmonious and beneficial. It is not so important if you agree or disagree with the way someone else is creating change, it is possible to disagree and still honour their journey. Change will come whether you actively take part, so your best option is to continually express your innermost desire from a place of harmony.
Let Go. Expect there may be the breaking up or letting go of things we treasure to create a space for something new to be created. Yet change is inevitable and the more we can embrace the flow of releasing and creating, the greater the peace that comes with that flow. Some wise words I heard many years ago still apply today ‘all change means loss and all loss must be mourned’. Allow yourself to mourn, when necessary, then pick up the pieces and create something even better. Just as a bone heals stronger at the exact location of a break, so too can we become stronger as we lose, mourn, and recreate.
Learn to Stand in Your Sovereignty. Sovereignty is the act of self-empowerment based upon your internal truth and knowing. When a person experiences everything from the external focus and blames others for their experience, they fall into victimization. This leads the individual to continually look outside of self for validation and the expectation that others must change to accommodate them. Learning to be a Sovereign individual is one of our most challenging lessons, as we live in a world well versed in external focus and victimization.
Being sovereign means that you are aligned with your truth which can then radiate out into the world. Sovereignty is the place where you can stand strong and come face-to-face with challenges and know that they will fade away because you are simply standing strong. Not because you must fight or attack them, rather, because you stand strong in your truth.
If we look at history, almost every big discovery has come about because the minority was unwilling to agree with the majority, simply because they were the majority. The minority, who looked at the world in a little different way, stood strong regardless of pressure and ridicule, willing to hold onto their truth and sovereignty. Are you ready to become sovereign?
Unity. An important aspect of sovereignty is the willingness to also allow others to have a different opinion than yours without making them wrong. The experience of division has exploded in popularity over the past few years, it originally gained popularity when people could hide behind a computer and make anonymous comments but has now grown into an acceptable way of being for many. 2022 is the year to let go of division and the need to discredit those you disagree with, a time to step into your sovereignty and find respect for yourself as well as those whose opinion differs from your own. This does not mean you must give up your opinion, rather it is time to respect others, even if you do not agree.
2020 and 2021 have provided many opportunities for growth into a state of love and unity. Many of those opportunities have created chaos and some are less comfortable than others, but still opportunities. And now it is time to make use of those challenges to find a way back into unity.
Question and Remember. Can you get past your own fears and biases to step into the courage to love others fully regardless of who they are and what they believe? Can you see past your own ego and desire to be right, to understand there is more than one truth and it is not up to you to decide what that truth should be for another? It is time to remember that others are also human and have equal rights to yours. Now is the time for us to rise above our own fears and see others in their truth.
The Courage to Love…no matter what. Our ultimate opportunity this year and for many years to come is choosing to have the courage to love, even if it is not popular or easy. Many profess to be loving and compassionate, yet still feel they have the right to condemn the actions or people they did not agree with. The statement usually goes something like this “Of course I am a loving and compassionate person, but that (fill in the blank) is unacceptable” or maybe “I don’t judge others for their opinion, but that (fill in the blank) is absolutely wrong”. Do you see what is happening here? People justify their judgement by suggesting the other person or action is unacceptable to everyone, so they are within their rights to judge it.
Choosing to love in the face of challenge takes more courage than submitting to fear, anger and hate, as it requires us to take a good look at what we are feeling and why. It often requires us to go against popular opinion, get ego out of the way, and forgive those we feel anger towards. How many times have you seen an angry mob portrayed in movies, where everyone becomes swept up in the moment and
Sovereignty to Equanimity. Your journey from head to heart! Equanimity is a state of mental calmness and composure, especially in difficult situations. All that has been unfolding has been a perfect backdrop to practice sovereignty and move into equanimity. What would it take to move into a state of mental calmness and composure? To move into your heart?
The heart is the place where stability occurs. External stability is an illusion; instability is also an illusion. Stability comes when you are rooted, anchored and sovereign in yourself, not because of someplace you live or something you have achieved. Sovereignty is when you become unstoppable because you know your own strength and trust what is within.
When you are fully in your heart, you are in a state of equanimity, and you can anchor your energy down into the earth no matter where you are or what you are doing. When you anchor into love, you can recognize more and more fully that the trappings around you are the illusion, and what is within is the truth.
Overall, it is shaping up to be a year of momentous change and potential, one in which we all have an important role to play. A role of shining our light into the world, of being our unshakable truth. Do you have the Courage to Love, no matter what?
If you feel the need for support on your journey into love, I would recommend you consider joining my membership Galactic Council Circle of Light or a one-time Benevolent Messages event.
