6 Men, 13 Tzotz, 11 Ik
Selamat Balik! We arrive! Our earthly associates continue to make progress to prepare for the dispersal of funds. These funds are to be given only to encourage a global prosperity as well as the end to poverty and all want in this reality. It is agreed by us and our various associates that the old ways of hoarding money and denying the masses their due can no longer be tolerated. Those in the various elements of the dark cabal are to be divested of their ill-gotten wealth. Further, governance, long the realm of these scalawags, needs a complete house cleaning. Those who serve in government have long been beholden to these fiscal rascals. Hence, a broad coalition between them made banks and investment houses largely exempt from the degree of full retribution they truly deserved. This is to change now, as new rules for financial discourse are to end this illegitimate behavior. Arrests are to punctuate this and set the stage for a fresh way of conducting these affairs. This is to usher in a new age of transparency, fairness and worldwide prosperity. This is just the beginning for what is planned!
You require some heavenly and galactic wisdom about your reality and your distant origins as a people. In this regard, we, and your Ascended Masters, are to offer some sound advice and truths about the nature of this realm and limited consciousness. The dark, prior to the end of Atlantis, carefully watched colonies throughout the Atlantean empire. These colonies were eventually meant to serve as the source of slaves. These slaves were to be the basis for the Atlanteans and their allies to drastically change this empire’s societies. This concept was fought by those who understood the special “deal” Heaven had given Atlantis at the time of the destruction of Mu (ancient Lemuria). This conflict was to lead to the destruction of Atlantis some 13,000 years ago. At that time, the Anunnaki emerged as the dark successors to this lost empire. Initially, the Anunnaki filled your ancestors with a great stream of mistruths. The purpose was to forge a mythology to control the survivors of this catastrophe.
The story of your ancient societies is a tale of a growing dichotomy between the technology available to the minions and that given to the masses. A secret science gradually grew up which permitted the Anunnaki’s minions to perform what at first seemed to your ancestors to be magic. The minions were as well taught a vast arcane history, which showed why they were the rulers and how best to stay in power. This relationship between the minions and the Anunnaki lasted until the decree of Anchara was announced in 1994. At that time, the Anunnaki deserted their minions and asked them to surrender to the Light. The minions refused and began a global conflict to determine which faction was now to rule. The dark’s continued quest to retain its power was not checked until we made a number of special agreements with our various Earth allies. They wished to have only our support and to finish off the dark themselves. This last stage began in earnest in late 2006.
Since that time, we have used our offices to ensure their success. The Agarthans committed even more of their personnel to live in your world and advise these special allies on the best strategies to favor. In addition, we obtained data vital for their several strategies. This data, along with our added personnel, greatly aided these brave and courageous souls in their endeavors. Our purpose was to help them in order to see NESARA proclaimed. The new governance was to recognize us and finally end a most malicious cover-up that has prevented us from engaging in a more overt policy of support. We have instead monitored your world and done what was available to us. Our liaisons have been ferrying between these friendly groups for decades. We intend to take a more active role since new heavenly decrees now infer this. Heaven implored us to interfere in a most positive way and ensure that the forces of the Light succeed. Thus, this is the time when the dark is to fade ungraciously from the scene.
Namaste! We are your Ascended Masters! We come today with more good news! The various allies from our secret sacred societies, as well as the various Ancient Families, are in the process of transferring monies to a number of distribution trust accounts. Those special groups are to pay out your global prosperity programs and foreign exchange accounts. The dark cabal has long used its positions of authority to prevent these payouts from happening. Agreements and the threat of force by the Ancient Families, as well as by us, finally liberated these accounts from their heinous grasp. Blessed be the ways of Heaven and the power of the Light! These funds are to be ready once a number of final steps are completed. Expect shortly to hear announcements on this very subject. We rejoice and prepare for a number of wondrous blessings for humanity. Hosanna! Hosanna! Hosanna!
In other news, those in charge of bringing down the old reality are ready to start a series of legal moves, to lead to the rise of the new GESARA governance. We bless these actions, as they are the final steps that are to lead to your freedom and to the true declaration of your individual sovereignty. As the old powers fade, the Light is to emerge triumphant. Be prepared, dear hearts, for some amazing events. Remember this time of your year is to celebrate the end of tyranny and the return of those abilities that were lost during the time of Atlantis. The coming great white month in ancient times was when Atlantis reached its conclusion by overstepping its power. The Light showed that agreements made with Heaven are to be obeyed in joy and in the Light of divine service. The days of darkness are over! The time of the divine Light is indeed here!
We bless these times and prepare, dear ones, for our coming lessons. These are to teach you about the spiritual essence within you and its effects on consciousness. As you rise in Spirit, you gain in consciousness. The spiritual and physical realms here are to merge and forge a new blessed reality. The task we are assigned is to watch over you and give you aid and comfort within the bounds of your individual life contracts. We do this in joy and administer you as is righteously given to us by Heaven. All the Beings of this realm are greatly loved and appreciated by Heaven. In Heaven’s Light, all works in joy to alleviate pain, remove sorrow and seek sustenance for everyone. This moment is thus a sacred one as the tide turns against the dark. The time for this reality’s salvation is at hand! In praise, we gladly state: Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Today, we continued our messages. Be in joy and prepare yourselves for the final steps of this part of your journey. Magnificent events are happening. We are close to the landings. Let these final steps be indeed true and swift. Know, dear Ones, that the countless Supply and never-ending Prosperity of Heaven are indeed Yours! So Be It! Selamat Gajun! Selamat Ja! (Sirian for Be One! and Be in Joy!)

Heavenletter #5066 Rising to Greater Heights , October 8, 2014

God said:

To live for yourself alone has gone out of style. It doesn’t satisfy. Oh, for a time, perhaps, and then you find out that what you at first found satisfying isn’t satisfying any longer. It doesn’t satisfy enough. It is far from enough.

For one thing, you are hard to please, and you change your mind. Another thing is that it becomes tiresome to please yourself.

It’s not that you are to forget yourself in the world, yet when you actually encompass the whole Universe, you understand that in service to others is how you do serve yourself.

By not always putting yourself first, it isn’t that you erase yourself, not by a long shot, yet you can no longer put yourself routinely before others. Your perceived needs just aren’t so important any longer. In any case, filling your needs to even the brim, does not satisfy, for I made you greater than that. You don’t have to come first. You have a greater Self. Nor are you to think that self-abasement is your choice. Self-abasement often includes putting yourself first in a more obsequious way. It is not that your consideration for the well-being of others makes you outstanding. It does not call attention to you. It does not make you noble. It makes you what I designed you to be.

Ultimately, you are to serve Me. You are not so exclusive that you can by-pass others without a thought. Serving the well-being of all is also serving Me. Just have the awareness lightly in your sight that your individual personage does not have to come first. You just aren’t so self-serving any longer. Now you have access to greater than your individual self.

Do not think for one moment that I ask you to be the patsy for the world. Ultimately, you are the stimulator of the world. You are on the forefront. Through your open heart, you open up the world, and love, which is the natural precursor of the world, soars and brings you to your senses. This is how you live love. You do not proclaim. You live love. There is no big arrow that points to you. The arrow of love goes out from you. Ultimately, the arrow reaches Me, and from Me, it rebounds, and love is on the move and a fact of life.

Love and its inherent caring for all is the rule of love. This is how love manifests, and you manifest it. There is no fanfare, yet there is a steadiness of intent and purpose. A sign flashes before you:

“To live for yourself alone is not living. It is self-serving. You are to uplift the world. This is how you uplift yourself. This is how you grow. This is realism. The world and everyone in it is entwined. You become real for this awareness moves you to greater heights in your life.”

You recognize that once you were self-directed. You were about yourself. Your vision of life was ego, and ego was natural to you. And then, you looked again, and you came to see ego in a different light. You came to see that ego is not you but a lesser representation of you. Less did not interest you as it once did. Your horizon widens, and you begin to grow.

Connecting only to your individual self keeps you stultified. You are to be viable in the world. You are to run through it with more than a nod to others. Others come with you, and you help to make their ride comfortable. You come to so-called others, not as a white knight, but as a simple human being who offers his hand and leaves inspiration in his wake. A little bit like a Superman out of uniform. You do not behave in a way that calls attention to a lesser you. Attention on yourself is not a main feature of your life any longer. Your loyalty to Me makes life a little better for everyone, and so you lift yourself. All this is your salute to Me.

Teacher Ophelius.
Subject: “From This Day Forward, You are a Student of Love.”

Received by Chris.

Teacher Ophelius: “The message for today is about self-worth, and self-love. One of the most limiting beliefs there are on your world today is the belief that you are somehow not worthy or not good enough to be accepted by God because of some failure in your past or because someone told you the lie that you weren’t good enough, or smart enough to achieve anything of importance in your life. How many of you as adults are ‘walking wounded’ and carrying around these huge burdens of guilt and hurt from your past or from childhood that has left a deep mark on your psyche that prevents you from moving forward toward some hidden desire to become your ‘ideal self?’

“Let us first put some things in perspective. You are a child of God. You were created to be a co-creative partner with God – to share your life experiences with God and you have been given the opportunity to live eternally if you so choose to continue in this co-creative partnership with God. You have been given free will to create the life you want to have while you are here in this world. This life is an ‘opportunity’ to explore and to learn how to love – to experience love in all the varying degrees as it is interpreted by the fallible human form – to seek for the understanding of higher more pure forms of love with less conditions and by doing so you can become more like your co-creative partner – God.

“Now, understanding what I just said, how is it that you are not good enough, or smart enough, or ‘holy’ enough to be accepted by God or to achieve anything in life you desire to be or do? Who told you this lie that you are not worthy? It is time to let go of those burdens you carry and to start anew. From this day forward you are a student of LOVE and you are enrolled in the University of Love and there are many classrooms in this school and many teachers. Look around the class you are in now – do you belong with the students there? Are they also on the path seeking these higher more pure forms of love? Are some of the students there disruptive to you? Perhaps you need to move your seat away from those who distract you, and prevent you from hearing the Teacher? Move to the front of the class where you can clearly see the chalk board and hear the Teacher’s instructions. Sit with those who can help you most.

“As a child, you quickly understood the classroom dynamics, yet as adults, some of you still sit in the back of the class with the disruptive, love starved, ego driven students who are intent on seeing you fail – those who are also stuck in the quagmires of doubt, hurt, pain, blame, and with twisted interpretations of what love is because they refuse to study. Move away from them and come into the light! Your time on earth is only a short season – make the most of it – raise your hand and ask the Teacher to explain the love lesson again, then go out into the world and apply it. God wants you to graduate with Highest Honors and the only prerequisite to this higher learning is to ‘allow’ His love to flow through you (as a co-creative partner).

“Within you lives the Greatest Teacher with the highest degree in Love – the Indwelling Spirit of God. With credentials like that, how can anyone tell you that you are not good enough? If you still hear this, it is probably coming from the back of the class.

“Peace to you,
“The Circle of Seven.”

Unconditional Love - Gabriella

The following is an article written for the Thought for Today Series as part of the Master Class at Healing for Ascension Tour on Facebook.

THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Tuesday, October 7, 2014 - Who Needs Light?
By Gabriella Brightlight

Unconditional Love

Today I want to talk about love; What does it mean? How does it feel?
How can we access it? Do we trade something of ourselves to get it?
What are we ready to do in the name of love?
From Wikipedia; "Unconditional love is known as affection without any
limitations. It can be also love without conditions." "...In conditional
love: love is 'earned' on the basis of conscious or unconscious
conditions being met by the lover, whereas in unconditional love, love
is "given freely" to the loved one "no matter what". Loving is primary.
Conditional love requires some kind of finite exchange, whereas
unconditional love is seen as infinite and measureless. "

Interesting definition. I did not learn unconditional love in my
childhood, either at school or with friends. Every situation I was in
was conditional. I was going into my teens with no understanding of
what love is all about. I completely shut down, to not feel anything
that could hurt me. It probably sounds familiar to you.

I remember clearly the feelings I had in my first loving relationship.
How can we forget the first love in our lives! It touched something I
never felt before. I felt alive for the first time. Something coming
from an external source made me feel alive. I was young and the
relationship was chaotic, but I felt passion, attraction, love from
someone else for the first time. I completely transformed from being
introverted and shy to an out-going, flamboyant character. I learned to
go outward instead of inward. What a trap that was.... I thought I was
being seen for the first time, but still felt empty.

In my outward life I was the cheerleader who brought the fun and friends
home with me for amazing diner parties. I was confident and always took
on new job opportunities even if I had to relocate far away and change
everything in my life. It was thrilling to me to always prove to myself
that I could achieve anything I wanted and overcome any fear. I was a
winner and ready to jump no matter what! I received promotion after
promotion and was making good money. I was strong, opinionated and
pretty. It was a very seductive composition. I attracted men in my
life with this "cocktail" of me.

I had created this "me" in my teens when I built myself up out of
nothing. When someone was looking at me with an intense burning desire,
I thought it was love. I confused physical attraction with love all
along. What a false idea. While this was going on, I felt very
disconnected, empty and continued to feel the childhood lack of love. I
was ambitious in my career, but settled for nothing in my love life. In
each love relationship, I traded who I thought I was to fill the void.
I was vulnerable to flattery and the seductive feeling that someone
wanted me. In exchange for so little, I was giving all of me.

18 months ago, everything I thought I had accomplished fell apart, but
in fact, everything was falling into place. It was very difficult and
confusing, all happening at once. I was such a mess, but what a
blessing! It was perfect and it shook every single part of me to the
core. I was ready to change my life but in a completely new way. It
was time to dive in and feel fulfilled for the first time, starting from
self-love then extending this love to others. In the process I learned
that love is not just about an intimate partner relationship. I have
learned the deep pleasure and fulfillment that comes with rich
friendships based in unconditional love.

To really look at all this, I had to take this on and look at every area
where I was not feeling comfortable, to understand and transcend it.
Sometimes I expressed, "Whew, not pretty. This is hard to look at. Not
too proud of this behaviour, but let's make sure we look at every
not-so-lovely part of this so I can leave it behind." I was seeing the
dark side of the puppet I had built to survive the jungle of lack I grew
up in. I had to see it clearly in order to leave it behind.

Once I accepted the puppet and the absolute necessity for creating her
in childhood, I saw that my emotional and psychological survival had
depended upon it. I could then congratulate myself for creating it, so
that I could have the chance to become the healthy, clear, authentic
adult I am now.

It was all perfect. I learned the lesson I came here to learn, which is
that true love belongs everywhere in my life. I am still learning since
I understood recently that there is no end to our growth and expansion.
We can always go deeper, learn more, and expand every day.
Unconditional love must live in my heart in every sphere of life.

To grasp what Unconditional love means I decided to start from the
beginning: the love between family members. I rewired the old childhood
feeling of lack and replaced it with loving and meaningful
relationships. By living with Kathryn for more than a year and raising
Noève together, we have created the dream family I wished for. It does
not matter if Kathryn and I are not related. We chose each other and
have a wonderful Mother-Daughter relationship that I didn't experience
before. They both love me no matter what and I love them no matter
what. For the first time, I know what a loving family means. I am
grateful for them both.

I have terrific coworkers and friends! The Healing for Ascension Team
is just pure love. Thank you for being there. Because of you, I now
know what it means to have unconditional loving friendships. We
extended this love on the group page and I am so proud to be part of
this. We have built group consciousness out of our loving
relationships. The unconditional love can be felt by everyone around
us. I am so grateful for all of you. Thank you for creating this Light
family with me, with us, with all.

Since I have discovered my spiritual identity and who my twin flame is,
I established strong contacts and relationships from the bottom of my
heart to the Higher Realms. I have been shown what a loving
relationship feels like. It is nothing like previous experiences with
love partners. At first, I thought I was experiencing a contact with my
twin flame. I was told that all along, but as I worked on myself the
truth came out. It was Father God on behalf of my twin flame, teaching
me unconditional love to help me learn. It was the most intense loving
relationship of my life. Thank you, Father God, for loving me
unconditionally. It helped me to restore and recover and be prepared
for what is next....

I will ask my twin flame to give a daily message to Kathryn to complete
this teaching about unconditional love. It will be posted before tomorrow.

With much love, Gabriella

Lucifer: Unconditional Love

Lucifer:

I have been asked by my beloved Gabriella to speak about Unconditional Love.

Unconditional Love is a large topic, a Universal one in fact. You have been told that all is love, and yet you live in a world where little unconditional love is present. You have suffered the lack in childhood and ever after, and it has required that you turn yourselves inside out to try to provide something for yourselves that was not available from others.

This love gymnastics program you all experienced - even in the best of families - encouraged you to learn two things: One, you can't trust anybody, and Two, you must trust yourself. It is a conundrum, isn't it? If you continue a life without trusting anyone, you close down your judgment, thereby guaranteeing that you will always make faulty choices and end up hurting yourself. If you trust everyone, as some of you say you should, you will also not make good choices because you have blinded yourselves to the truth that there are still some on the planet who are truly untrustworthy.

Now, where does that leave us if we wish to love unconditionally? How do you do it and still remain whole, in spite of the rough and tumble life you signed on for? There is an answer to this, Dear Ones. Love makes you stronger, so even if you chose badly in the past, you are not weakened by it; you are stronger and wiser. You are sturdy adults, so you have nothing to fear from loving wholeheartedly, regardless of the outcome.

Be generous in your gifts of love, but you must also be unwavering in your standards for the way you will be treated. If your loved one betrays you or abuses you even once, do not stay and try to change him/her; you are entitled to end the relationship immediately.

Do not wait until you have married the person, had children, or started a business together. The rule of thumb is this: If a person is willing to behave violently or dishonestly once, they will repeat that behavior. Character does not change in a moment. Although outward behavior might change for a while, it does not "hold" because it comes from ego, not inner guidance. Leave and find yourself someone with integrity - someone you don't have to change.

Of course I do not mean to say that people are not capable of change. Some are. You are, but why would you want to choose someone as your partner who will become a lifelong project in which you are in the position of correcting and admonishing them as if you were the parent and they the child? Or worse yet, you are suffering in silence, feeling hurt and confused? If the person in question is willing to change, they will do it of their own accord, without prodding, just as you have. Perhaps your leaving them will create impetus for them to change; perhaps not.

You see, the scenario I have described above would only continue for a second round if your ego is in charge, calling the shots. Egos love a challenge, even a deadly one. Your own ego (and his/hers) will lie to you, tell you that to "forgive and forget" and welcome them back is an honorable, superior way to live. Listening to Ego, you will want to be superior, above the one who has hurt you, and you will be tempted to prove it to yourself and everyone else over and over. Beware the seductive promise of Sainthood.

Now, take a deep breath and stay with me here. Resist the urge to deny any ego involvement until you look closely. Remember the earlier lessons you have learned in these messages. * If you find something in yourself you cannot bear to admit, be kind. Understand it is just a learned pattern, and you can change it. It is not YOU. It is just something you learned to do. Say your favorite "Oh, well" mantra and be ready to examine the specimen closely.

If you have remained in a relationship where you were frequently feeling hurt, frustrated or angry, there are three possibilities:

1. You are deluding yourself into thinking that your love will change the other person (bring out the best in them), and it is worth staying because there are good times as well as bad times.

2. Related to 1, above: You are taking the "I'm so forgiving" position, which means you    have not forgiven at all, but you are taking credit for it, by suppressing all feelings of anger. This is what we think of as the Lightworker analogue to "I'm too sexy for my shirt...too sexy for Milan, New York, Japan."    ** *** (see footnote below)

3. You are firmly ensconced in a child position (as described in Kathryn's book, Who Needs Light?) and you are either imagining insults that do not exist, or you are imagining you are a helpless prisoner in this relationship, or you believe you don't deserve better, or all of the above.

Beloved Ones, Love does not hurt. If you have loved with all your heart, you have fulfilled your promise to love unconditionally. There is nothing more you could do, and if the relationship ends, either by death or separation, there is no reason to be devastated or bereft. You have gained the experience of feeling great love, and you come away ready to express that love toward everyone you meet. This is not a loss or a failure; it is a triumph.

If you are feeling devastated, outraged and hurt, look closely at the thinking process you have applied to understanding the broken relationship. Are you blaming yourself for choosing badly or for not being able to "make it work"? Are you devastated that the other person doesn't want to be with you any longer? Are you outraged at a dishonest, deceitful or unfair action on the other's part? Let us look at these (Ego) responses.

We have already covered blaming yourself. It is unfair, unkind, and unrealistic - an old pattern put in place by Ego to protect you from pain at some early time in your life, when you needed to believe you were in control of everything that happened, because that is better than feeling helpless. This is an early childhood compromise: If I am to blame, then I can fix it, and they aren't as bad as they seem. They are exonerated, so I don't have to cry myself to sleep every night, realizing how awful they are. I am in control, so I will be okay. That works for a child who has no other option but to remain where s/he is and try to make the best of it, but it is simply not true, then or now.

If you are devastated about the break-up or loss, you are imagining you can't live happily without the person who has left. Assuming it is a break-up, then either the other wanted to leave, or you wanted to leave, or you both wanted out. From an adult perspective where you have free will and so do they, what is so terrible about that? Why would you even give a second of your precious life to longing for someone who doesn't want you? Would you really want someone to stay with you against their wishes? Why? If you were the one who needed to leave, then why look back with regret and try to convince yourself that you should have stayed? So that you both could suffer endlessly? Why not breathe a sigh or relief and move on? You are both free to find a more satisfying life. (If you find yourself resenting his new life, look to Ego for explanations.)

Now, let us look at the situation where you have been betrayed, snookered, hoodwinked, mislead, deceived, duped, cheated or skunked. You are probably trying to convince yourself you had no idea he or she could do such a thing, but deep down, you knew you were playing with fire. Think of the first time you met this person. What was your intuitive response? Did your heart go pitty-pat? That, Dear One, is fear. Did you feel the kind of attraction that made you want to melt? You were already giving up your good judgment.

Most people will acknowledge there was a moment when they felt a hesitation, a doubt, or even an outright knowing that this person was trouble. So, now you complain that you have been taken advantage of? That doesn't make sense, does it?

Instead of gnashing your teeth and beating your chest about the unfairness of it all, congratulate yourself for your good radar. It was working then and it is working now. You needn't fear that you will make the same mistake again. You only need to pay attention to your best faculties, and you will be safe and happy next time. That intuitive nudge came from your Higher Self and your Guides. They deserve a thank you, and now you can consciously connect with your Higher Self and have a good laugh together.   In fact, you can apologize for not listening!

Now that we have removed the booby traps, you are ready to move on to the real thing: Unconditional unconditional Love. Knowing that no one owes you anything, and that there is no outward reward to be expected for your acts of love, go ahead and have fun. Spread Light around you with a broad brush. Give what you can, graciously accept what is offered, and expect nothing more than to have a wonderful time. You will end each day exhilarated, fulfilled, and eager for another opportunity to be loving and kind.

This is the key to unconditional love, Beloved Friends: Anticipate fun and enormous blessings in your life when you live generously, but expect nothing in particular. It is the work of God and the angels to fill the lives of those who serve with pennies from Heaven, sunshine and flowers. This is not payment for your good acts, because there may not be a one-to-one correlation between your goodness and your rewards. Much depends upon your soul contract and your lessons still to be completed.

You might even cultivate a new attitude toward those lessons if you want to maintain your sense of humor. Here is my suggestion: Every time you suddenly find yourself face down in the mud - or one of life's equivalents - just pick yourself up, brush yourself off with a hearty laugh, and thank your guides for the clever fast one they just pulled on you. Then, look closely at what you can gain by thoroughly understanding the people, the conditions and requirements of this latest bump in the road. You will come away richer, smarter, and completely at peace, because you didn't feel you had to blame anybody or get upset. This is what we mean by "rolling with it," isn't it?

You see, Unconditional Love means you love yourself unconditionally first, and God is right up there too. When you cultivate that state of your heart where you are in love with yourself, with God and with Life, then you will be surrounded by Love of your own making, and you will never feel alone.

If it is in your contract to encounter an unconditionally loving partner, it will happen. When it does, you will simply be "hooking up" with someone who feels the same way about you that you do, so there won't be arguments or misunderstandings. You will love each other beautifully, with respect, admiration and wonder. There will be no need for bargains or deals or manipulations to get love. It is freely given, both ways.

So you see, Dear Ones, expressing Unconditional Love will never cost you a thing. It will fill you up, lift your vibrations and speed you toward your Ascension. It cannot exhaust you because you will be channeling the energy of the Universe, and you will be the recipient of it first. You will find yourself with a spring in your step and a laugh on your lips. When you are in Love, everything looks beautiful, even if it isn't.

So, go ahead. Hug a tree. Hug a child. Be a little silly, and laugh about it. It is contagious. If you don't know how to dance, take a lesson. Sing in the shower and admire the sound. Applaud others when they try something new. Notice the leaves changing, clouds floating by, and greet the rain with cheers and gratitude. Everywhere you look there is something to Love, to celebrate. Send out your Unconditional Love vibes to the sparrow in the tree, the bee on a flower and the dinner on your table. Don't hold back. Then send Unconditional Love to all those people who are destructive, evil, lost. You, My Dearest Ones, are changing the world.

I love you Unconditionally, always.
I am your Lucifer, in service to God.

Wednesday's early morning Full Moon eclipse in mid-Aries, opposite the Libra Sun, is influential, as eclipses are in general, since they represent extra-potent lunations, powerful cosmic reminders of the symbolic intensity of the Sun and Moon as masculine and feminine numinous powers in opposition across the sky. As the Sun, the earth and the Moon line up exactly, so that the shadow of the earth falls across the face of the Moon, turning her to a dusky shade of red, we can look to the heavens and imagine that we see, just beyond the Moon, the invisible placement of Uranus. The eclipse intensity is made much stronger by the fact that the Sun and Moon, aligned in their tight formation, also closely oppose and conjunct the trickster energy of Uranus, at 14 ½ degrees of Aries less than a degree away from the Moon.

Uranus is also participating in a grand trine in Fire signs, being in extremely close trine all this week with bothJupiter in Leo and Mars in Sagittarius, including the eclipse timing. There is also the Uranus-Pluto square, drawing ever closer, now less than 4 degrees from exact, and triggered at this time as well by Venus in square toPluto. This symbolism speaks of radical transformation. Then too, with Uranus so prominent in the Wednesday skies, we will get a powerful dose of his trickster energy, providing also the opportunity for deep intuitional epiphany and surprising happenings that rearrange your reality thinking to include a wider range of possibility. This is also, it is to be noted, quite an accident-prone time, which is one reading of the Mars-Uranus signature, as amplified by Jupiter in trine with both, and with on top of that the extra-special eclipse energy. There is thus an extreme emphasis on individual quirkiness and unexpected happenings, a uniqueness that is fully yours; your own and no one else's.

In contradistinction to this emphasis on Fire and individual, it is also useful to remember that this Full Moonrepresents a culminating phase of the lunation cycle that began slightly over two weeks ago, with September'sLibra New Moon. Libra represents balance and partnership, in contrast to the highly individual energy of Uranusin Aries trine Mars! We are therefore, as we go through the heart of a rather intense week, mediating between these two poles of individual versus partnership, and of unique personal contribution versus group participation.

We have also the contrast of inner and outer to consider. Mercury, having so recently stationed to retrograde motion, occupies the second degree of Scorpio, a Water sign of deep internal process, as is also represented by the retrograde energy itself. As you go through a peak experience of enthusiasm and passion, you might also want to go slowly, allowing the lessons of this important juncture to truly sink in. It is in this way that you can take the best possible advantage of what the universe has to offer.

The Sabian symbols for this eclipse Sun and Moon support this viewpoint. For the Sun, at the 15-plus, or sixteenth, degree of Libra, we find: "After a storm, a boat landing in need of reconstruction," which reminds us of the work that we yet must do to rebuild, as we struggle through the losses of this Pluto time. For the Moon, in the sixteenth degree of Aries, we have: "Nature spirits dancing in the light of the setting Sun." Marc Edmond Jones talks about "[the personal versus] the totally impersonal forces of nature," and of "a continual reversion to pure source." This is a potent time and we do well to remain as conscious as possible regarding the gifts it brings, and for whatever we can muster up to bring to it in return.

Essence of Vedanta
Vedanta is expressed in the mahavakhyas (great sentences) of the Upanishads as "Tat twam asi" - "Thou art That"; "Aham brahma asmi" - "I am the self". Vedanta says, "O little man! Do not identify yourself with this perishable body. Give up 'Iness' and 'mineness'! Do not hate your neighbour or brother. Do not try to exploit him he is your own self. There is a common Self or common consciousness in all. This is the same in a king and a peasant, in an ant and a dog, in a man and a woman, in a cobbler and a scavenger. This is the real immortal entity. Mind is the dividing principle. It tempts and deludes. Kill this mischievous mind. Control the indriyas (senses) which drag you out to the external objects. Fix the mind in the source. Rise above body and mind. Eradicate desires. Learn to discriminate the real from the unreal. Identify yourself with this immortal, nondual, self-existent, self-luminous essence. Behold the one Self in all. See the one in many. All miseries will come to an end."
Vedanta speaks of the one Atman or Brahman or Self who exists in the past, the present and the future, who has no beginning, middle and end, who is the support for everything, who is the embodiment of wisdom, peace and bliss. The seers of the Upanishads have expressed their realisation in glowing terms. They have given out their inner experiences after long research and mighty struggle. All these have been collected in the form of the Upanishads. This constitutes the subject of vedanta philosophy.
Although vedanta is the direct royal road that takes one to the goal, it should not be prescribed for all in a wholesale manner. There are four types of aspirants. They are the karmic (active) type, the bhakti (devotional) type, the mystic type and the rational type. Karma yoga should be prescribed for people of karmic tendencies for the busy and active men who have mala (impurities) in the mind; bhakti yoga for men of devotional temperament - in whom the emotional element predominates; raja yoga for men of mystic temperament; vedanta yoga for men of reason and will for people of intellectual temperament.
Vichara (enquiry, "Who am I?") can only benefit that aspirant who is free from impurity and tossing of the mind, who is endowed with bold understanding, gigantic and tremendous will, sharp, subtle intellect and the four means. It is certainly not meant for all it is meant for the select few only who can really understand and realise the full significance or import of vedanta and reap the fruits.
