MARY MAGDALENE: How To Best Help Children

Tarot Sun

Received by Mercedes Kirkel
On July 28, 2014

Question: I would like to know what your heart is for us, for the children of today. How can we help them?

Mary Magdalene: There are many ways. Of course, love them. But you must teach them, as well. And the ultimate way that you always teach children is through your own demonstration, which requires your own transformation. It always comes to that.

Teach them that they are manifestations of God, that you see God in, and as, and through them, and that they must do the same with others. This is the ultimate teaching.

Many blessings, one and all.
I AM Mary Magdalene

Sivananda Daily Reading

Time is a Trick 
Time is the mode of the mind. It is a mental creation. Time is a trick of the mind. It is an illusion. Brahman is beyond time. It is eternity. Go beyond time and rest in the timeless, eternal, imperishable Brahman.
'Up and down', 'within and without', 'high and low', 'big and small', 'thin and stout', 'virtue and vice', 'good and bad', 'pleasure and pain', 'here and there', are all relative terms. They are mental creations only. Up will become down and down will become up. This stick is small when compared to that big stick, but that big stick will become small when compared with an even bigger stick! Within will become without and without will become within.
What is good at one time is bad at another time. What is good for one man is bad for another man. What is dharma for one is adharma for another and, what is dharma at one time is not dharma at another time.
Brahman is neither thin nor stout, neither big nor small. In Brahman there is neither within nor without, neither virtue nor vice, neither pleasure nor pain, good nor bad. It is a homogeneous essence of bliss and knowledge where there is no play of the mind, neither time nor space, east nor west, past nor future, Thursday nor Friday.
Tomorrow becomes today and today becomes yesterday. Future becomes present and present becomes the past. What is all this? This is a creation or trick of the mind only. In God, everything is in the present only; it is here only.
There is neither night nor day, yesterday nor tomorrow in the sun. It is the mind that has created time and space. When you are happy, time passes quickly. When you are unhappy, time hangs heavily. All this is only a relative world.
- - -
Life is not a question of creeds but of deeds well done. No life is free from difficulties - it is a series of conflicts. Face them boldly through the grace of the Lord and the power of his Name. Change is the law of life. Truth is the law of life. Love is the fulfilling of the law of life. Death is the gate to another life. Life is endless.

An Important Transitional Month of November

The astrology of November features a recovering Mercury, along with Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. Although improving nicely, Mercury is still shaky from its recent retrograde that ended on the last full weekend of October, the final of 2014. These happen three times a year, usually in the same element.Mercury's next retrograde will be on January 21st in Aquarius, and all three 2015 occurrences will be in Air signs. On into the current month, Mercury leaves Libra behind, for the second time, on Saturday, November 8th, returning to the sign of Scorpio where it started its retrograde motion in early October, thereby escaping its "retrograde shadow." The last vestiges of this particular retrograde period will then be over. For the remainder of the month we will perhaps still be integrating the lessons learned during this introspective and revealing period of time. 

This month as well, Uranus and Pluto are drawing closer to the next hit of their storied square, perfecting in mid-December. They are separated by a mere 2 and 1/4 degrees as the month begins, still less by its close. The Scorpio New Moon eclipse from late October, when the New Moon and Jupiter made quintile aspects toPluto while retrograde Mercury opposed Uranus, triggered these two powerhouse planets. This month too, they draw nearer to their recurring square, a major theme lately. The final denouement has yet to take place, with the next year representing perhaps the most intense example of their transformative and revolutionary interaction, manifesting on both a collective and a personal level, as this decade of the turbulent teens continues to unfold.

Neptune is equally triggered during this rather intense month, which is actually a transitional time leading to the ending of the year. In addition to its prominence in the Scorpio New Moon configuration, being trined bySun, Moon and Venus, with a close parallel from Venus to Neptune, there is also the factor of its speed.Neptune stations to direct motion on Saturday, November 15th, standing dead still in the sky. Moving quite slowly now, Neptune is therefore greatly emphasized, changing its position by a matter of only a few minutes of Zodiacal longitude from November 1st through to the 30th. All month we will be enjoying an extra dose of his otherworldly and spacey energy. Idealism bordering on illusion, perhaps confusion, will be the rule rather than the exception.

Expansive Jupiter, traveling through Leo and having a similar spiritual meaning to Neptune, although more engaged in the here-and-now, is also highlighted in November's astrology, being powerfully configured in the recent Scorpio New Moon eclipse. When Jupiter moves into the 22nd degree of the sign of Leo, during the mid-month Last Quarter Moon, with the Moon in close conjunction, Jupiter makes an almost perfect trine with the new planet, Eris, in the 23rd degree of Aries. This recently discovered planetary archetype seems to be involved with a warrior-like stand for deep purpose. This mid-month period is therefore a powerful time, when you might expect to encounter further facets of your own internal fortitude. We all can use a dose of this expansive and visionary energy, along with an increased awareness of deeper process within us, in order that we attune more completely to our soul intention, as we head toward another year of intense and necessary change.

Heavenletter #5091 For Your Sake, November 2, 2014 

God said: 

You already know everything. How else would your heart know that something is true? I am talking not about facts which are small verifiable or unverifiable things. Facts are not in the league with Truth. Facts come and go, and what is made of facts changes.
 
Of course, your intellect can sway your heart. The intellect can usurp, for the intellect is certain that it knows, for the intellect loves to wrap itself around logic. Your mind may have heard a certain logic a thousand times in the world, and so you have allowed variable untruths to impress themselves upon you as if they were true.
 
When I speak of Truth, I speak of the Truths that do not change -- Infinity, Eternity, Oneness, Life of the Soul and Love Itself. Love may seem to fluctuate on Earth, yet the Oneness of Love I speak of is Eternal and clear and is not the up and down love you are familiar with on Earth, the love that is here today and gone tomorrow, transfigured into something else.
 
Truly it is the heart that knows what is true. Your learn-ed mind may well not. And, on some level, even your heart may have been suckered, even as you may ultimately recognize a vague feeling that tells you something isn’t true, and you disregard your heart. Perhaps someone in the world persuades. It’s not hard for you to be dissuaded.
 
When it comes to Eternal Truths in life, nothing knows better than your heart, for I hold your heart in My hand, and I never let go of it. Horses wouldn’t make Me. Nothing can make Me let go of your heart, for We are inseparable, not just sometimes, but always, whatever you may or may not make of Inseparability.
 
We are on the same wave-length. Your receiver can be turned off, of course. No matter what, My speaker and receiver cannot be interrupted for even a moment let alone disconnected. No absolutely not, there is not a moment’s disconnect between you and Me even if your receiver is turned off or disconnected. That you may not receive is probably not a surprise. You may not have been consciously receiving My messages much of your life because you doubted Me and held other gods before Me. It is for you to listen to My whispers and not so much to the rumors and reports of the world no matter how strongly the world shoots out its messages.  
 
As a matter of fact, you can compare all this other you purport to know like weather reports that do not come true as expected.
 
What are you going to bet on, beloveds? Reports or Me? If you and I do not agree, odds are that you misinterpret Me. Somewhere between Truth and your language and understanding, there may be an intercept. Admit that there can be vagaries of the human mind.
 
When you do hear Me and not a misinterpretation of what I say, there can be no doubt. Remind yourself that Truth as I know it, and what you know as Truth may or may not be the same. Even you must admit the accuracy of this. To whom would you give credence, a sundry fellow on Earth or the One in Heaven? It’s a no-brainer, isn’t it?
 
The thing is you are not sure that the One purported to be in Heaven is God Above or a fantasy or your mind or someone’s mind playing tricks. Yet, within all the confusion, you do know what is true and what is partly true. Partly true is not good enough. You don’t want partial Truth. You want the unwavering Truth that stands alone, the Truth That Is, and only the Truth and nothing less.
 
Lean towards Me, beloveds, not for My sake but for yours.
