A Plea for Compassion

My dear friends, we love you so very much.

There is a mistaken notion upon your planet that being a loving person means you will make everyone happy, meet everyone's needs, listen to everyone's desires, and be "nice" even if that means putting your own feelings aside, ignoring your own needs, or being completely inauthentic. In reality dear ones, being a loving person simply means acknowledging that everyone has a right to be, exactly as they are, right now, right here, upon your planet earth.

That includes you.

Being a loving person means you will first look inside yourself in any given interaction and say to yourself, "What is my honest response to this person in front of me, and what is the most loving way to communicate, or the most loving action I can take... that include me?" This is new thinking for most of you. Most of you become defensive when you move away from another because you do not feel ok doing so. Many of you will put up with all manner of ill behaviors because you were not taught it is ok to remove yourself from unkind conditions. So many of you, because you love so deeply, will sacrifice yourselves to the point of exhaustion and resentment in an attempt to save and fix others.

This martyrdom, dear ones, does indeed spring from love, but is not the highest form of it. God's love says, "I create you all as magnificent beings. I live and breathe within you. I gave you free will so you can know my love or you can, if you insist, feel separate from it. I will not force you. I will allow you to come to this understanding in your own time. I will exist in a state of love and joy and patiently wait for you to come to know my presence within you." If God, dear ones, who is the life and breath within you, allows beings on earth to continue in their illusions, so must you. God whispers words of love and encouragement in the hearts of all beings, and so can you, but if souls wish to continue in behaviors of misunderstanding and separation, grant them their journey, and simply withdraw your energies. Focus your sights instead upon the light.

You were meant to recognize the light within all beings. You were meant to allow others the dance they choose upon the earth. However, you were also meant to choose your own dance, your own dance partners, your own steps, and your own path. Rather than dancing to another's tune, falling into another's energy, or giving others the authority over your own life, dance to your own beat, stay in your own loving energy, give your own knowing the benefit of the doubt for your own life.

Being a loving person need not feel like martyrdom dear ones. If you are authentically including yourself in the equation of your own life, taking care of your own needs, listening to your own guidance, they you will become a beacon of light, and a soul who is naturally guided by God to assist those ready to receive the particular brand of love you have to offer. Bring your light into the darkness in others' lives when guided, or turn away from it. But in any case, dear ones, do not allow your light to be dimmed, for you are the lights here upon the world, and it is through your love, your joy, and your authentic expression here upon the earth that you do the most good.

God bless you! We love you so very much.

Oakbridge University - Jeshua - Message of the Day

Beloved one, you are most blessed in that you have bought a ticket and you sit in the front row and you watch the drama and you applaud how each one plays their part. Some of them play their part really, really well. They have the black cape and the mustache, or they have the white hat and they ride the white horse, and everything in between. So you watch it all as a drama.

Hilarion's Weekly Message: May 6-13, 2012
Received by Marlene Swetlishoff/Tsu-tana
====================================

Beloved Ones,

This is a very powerful time in the line up of planetary configurations and the energetic influence from the Spiritual realms. Many special dispensations of blessing and Love are being offered to Humanity, all that is required is being open to receive. Another passage of the Cosmic wheel has been made and we now embark on our new journey into unknown lands of new potential. As these time codes open up the portals, the influx of Cosmic Love and the waves of Light being sent to the Earth will activate the awakening of greater masses of Humanity.

These are the times you have been waiting for, for it means that you are all getting closer to the remembrance of your reason for being here in this Cosmic moment of the cyclic movement from one age to another. From this point onward, life will take on an impetus of one revelation after another coming into the Light of each person’s consciousness. Many of you will have your ‘aha!’ moments as the pieces of the puzzle start to fall into place and all the mysteries of your life become more clear. There is now an unstoppable awakening Light that is inundating this Planet and it is a peaceful, loving and powerful energy.

Be open to receiving more of all that is good in your daily existence. You have each been sorely tested and tried as you went through difficult initiations that have been preparing you to embody the greater Light that you truly are. The things of the Earth, although you will enjoy them, will no longer trap or distract you from your true purpose. You will have more time to explore the joys of embodiment in a form that is becoming multi-dimensional in its capacities. Being open to new experiences and moving beyond your previous boundaries will bring freedom to you on many levels of your Being.

Rejoice in this lightness of your Being, for it means you are moving forward on your Spiritual journey and that you have released the majority of all that is not Love of the things that no longer serve you in this new place you find yourselves in. Each person will blossom in a myriad of ways that create a new template that will be boundless in its possibilities. If you are reading this, then you are One who has qualified to serve the Divine Plan at a greater level. There are always other roads to travel and worlds to discover and conquer. We speak here of the growth of the Soul, Dear Ones.

Take note of happenings around you and learn to read the signs. Many things are changing, many things will be changing and you must adapt and change with them. The greatest changes that we see is that you will take back your power from all discordant and distracting energies and events that have kept you locked into situations not of your making. Enjoy the ride on the Cosmic roller coaster as it gathers speed towards Earth’s new beginning. The Ascension is ON, Beloved Ones, remember this each time you are tempted to resume the old ways of your former life. Going back is not an option, therefore take your next steps in surety and grace. We are with you always.

I AM Hilarion

Message from The Arcturians
Channeled by Marilyn Raffaelle
May 6, 2012
==========================

Dear ones, we are here to greet and welcome you all in this new era of energy. You are now feeling change within. Many are feeling disoriented and wonder if there are physical issues. No, what you are experiencing is simply the adjusting necessary as the body integrates the higher frequencies. Much is changing within the physical body as cells release that which is old, and integrate the new and higher. When you feel sick, or weak, or your ears are ringing etc., just remember that you are making huge changes within your physical, emotional, and mental systems. Rest more, allow yourselves to enjoy what you enjoy, drink and eat cleanly, and fill your consciousness with truth, while letting go of all that is old and finished. We are not saying that you should not consult a doctor if you are guided to do so, but be aware that the energy is affecting how you physically feel.

You are well on your way to a new and brighter world experience even though it often does not appear that way. Much is yet to be revealed and much is yet to be experienced by those of you choosing to ascend.

We would like to speak to you of ascension. This is a time of movement into the higher frequencies and is not a time to panic while trying to hold on to ways of doing things that have always worked for you. Many of these ways will either be lifted to a higher level, or will simply no longer work as they have in the past because those of you that have chosen ascension are now on your way out of the old energy.

However, many who are ready for the new energy, have not consciously chosen it because they do not know about it nor are they interested in it. These are the those who have over many lifetimes, attained a consciousness of oneness. Because of this, they are ready for ascension, but do not really know on a conscious level what is occurring. These are the dear ones that you will be helping and teaching. These are the ones who will be afraid and wondering what is happening at some point. You see, the criteria for ascension is having attained a consciousness of the oneness of all life. These dear souls live lives in whatever way they have chosen, often with no seeming interest in anything spiritual and yet living spiritually in every way. They are respectful of all life, live as kind and generous people, and often influence others in a positive way without even being aware of it. They are ready for the next step.

Every life time an individual has, adds to an accumulation of experiences which eventually lead to spiritual (not religious) evolution. In the process, many may appear to have wasted their opportunities for growth but it matters not, for all experience teaches, and every individual will eventually remember and unite with their true selves at some point. There is no time, and those not yet ready for ascension will have another time.

In lifetimes prior to this one, individuals incarnated having chosen one or two issues to be learned or resolved. However this time, because of the powerful shift taking place on earth, all who are serious about their spiritual growth and wishing to be a part of the new energy, came in with a much longer list of all needing to be finished, experienced, or learned quickly. Which is why so many of you have felt like your lives seem to be a series of moving from one issue to another.

Some of you brought lessons of karmic completion with either one or many. As a result, you have found yourselves in relationships that were often problematic from the beginning. As you were intuitively guided to lovingly work through the issues, the old energy was balanced, released, and finished. Others came in to experience and learn specific lessons of the third dimensional energy still needing to be learned.

The most powerful and the hardest lesson in this evolution is learning to look within instead of without. Learning through lifetimes of painful experiences and disappointment, that completeness and true happiness can never be found in person, place or thing. This is the barrier from third-dimensional energy in to the fifth. Many spiritually ready to make this jump in awareness have found themselves in relationships of all sorts that seem to have stopped working, leaving them heartbroken and wondering what happened. Or in another scenario, they may have fulfilled their material goals in every way but still feel empty and unhappy. Some may suddenly lose everything they have.

There are an infinite number of ways to learn that the "kingdom is within," and for the beginner soul, most of them are difficult and often very painful but at some point in the evolutionary journey, the lessons begin to come by grace and not through pain and suffering. It is important to state; "I choose to learn gently and easily," because out there in the human matrix of world beliefs is the belief that spiritual learning must be done through suffering. Much of mankind's' suffering is brought about through trying to hold on to something that is finished in the belief that it holds one's happiness.

Every soul chooses before incarnating into "earth school," those experiences that will eventually guide him into a state of consciousness that knows all reality is in and of the One omnipresent Consciousness. Because this Divine Consciousness is all there is, it must also be individual consciousness. Completeness , wholeness, intelligence, wisdom, abundance, and all the infinite qualities of Source lie sleeping within "Its" manifestation and gradually awakens onto conscious awareness over lifetimes. The Higher Self of each individual never sleeps and has never forgotten who it is, and so the journey must always move forward even if at times it is with baby steps.

We tell you these things because you are at a crucial point in your journey now. All that is left to be cleared and released is quickly coming to the surface. Do not fight it, but rejoice in the realization that what may look to the world as failure, is graduation dear ones, graduation.

We are the Arcturian Group

In Your Realization of Oneness
May 6, 2012
===========================

God said:

In Oneness, you let go of your old identity. Even wonderful identity, you let go of it. In Our Oneness, the Oneness of I, it is you and it is I, and that's it. Even the identity of family, you let go of. Good family, happy family, sad family, unhappy family, you let go of. Your profession, you let go of. Your wages, large or small, you let go of. Employment or unemployment, you let go of. Gender, you let go of. Age, you let go of. You might think you are being reduced to Oneness, yet all your ties on Earth assume a different position, and you are rising to Oneness. When it is you and I, it is you and I, and naught comes between the One of Us. Reuniting with Me in Oneness is not a social activity.

It is not that you throw away all the good in your life. It's that all your identities of the past are no longer first. You and I are first. You do not come to Me in a crowd, beloveds. Whatever has bolstered you in the past recedes now.

Your identity becomes greater, not less. Everyone in the world can come to Me at once. Nevertheless, each comes to Me with his or her heart, and that's it. Great numbers can become initiated all at once, yet you, who are Oneness, come to Me on your own. You have a new identity now. You cannot keep the old identities. If you were a football hero, no one is taking that away from you, but you leave the uniform behind. Any identity but the One of seeming you and I merged is too small. You are of a bigger family now, this Oneness with Me.

You come to Me on your own, as it were. You come to Me with all the love in your heart. There is no choosing of this and that when you come to Me. You do not keep your riches as primary when Oneness is primary. The Oneness of Us is primary. All the ties with the temporary world and its abundance recede into a backdrop of a stage. You are not a backdrop. You are not your history. You are not your childhood. You are not your past. When you become One with Me, you are greater than you ever knew, and no longer are you dependent upon all the beautiful things you were once dependent upon.

Do you understand Me? You can't claim both Oneness and multiplicity. You are not giving up anything, beloveds, but dependency and attachment. Whatever your identity has been, no matter how fine or marvelous, no matter how integrated or scattered, dear or not dear, the boundaries of your past identity no longer assume the importance they once did. They were of your mortal life. As you embrace Oneness, you kiss the temporary goodbye.

You are taking a voyage. For Our purposes here, you cannot stay home and take the voyage. You cannot stay close to your fireplace. When you venture, you have to venture. You leave where you are. You do not stay.

No longer is your identity American or European or indigenous. No longer is your identity your Earth father's son. No longer is your identity anything at all but with Me. Your reliance on world identity is past. You stay on Earth, and you live on Earth. All the wonderfulness remains, only you no longer own them. You do not keep them clutched in your hand. You enter a greater world where you and I become One. Oneness is all you ever wanted. Oneness with Me is what you have always wanted, and you will have it. You will arise to it without accumulation from the past. Of course, I am your True Past. I am where you came from. We reunite as One in your realization of Oneness.

Greetings, Beloveds, I am Sybra of Sirius; Elder of The Council of the Venus Ray and Messenger of Light, in service to the Divine Mother. Today, however, I step away from the ladies of The Council and speak with you in yet another of my roles – that of an officer and representative of The Galactic Federation of Light. The message I bring at the behest of my Brethren will be simple and to the point, as such is the preferred manner of those under whom I serve.

This day begins an era of unprecedented change. Yes, Dear Ones, this is the very change for which you have been working and praying for so tirelessly. Rest assured, your prayers have been heard. Observe the 5th of May and all that it signifies. There is the brilliant “Supermoon” and the rare transit of Venus as she passes gently between the Sun and the Earth. Then the eclipses, the solar, and then the lunar on the 4th of June. Think about it, truly do. Consider carefully the immensity of the changes such a close succession of significant events may make manifest! This is the Ascension. It is here and it is happening now.

Much has been written about the strength and beauty of the incoming energies. With them come a plethora of gifts for humanity. A further parting of the veil, DNA expansion, waves of nourishing light for the as yet unenlightened, the opening of the portals, The Mother’s love… All of this and so much more. You who read these words are the carriers out of The Mother’s mission. You already know what is occurring and that there is more yet to transpire. You are strong and resilient and you are aware of the armada of support that stands fast by your side. You do not fear the potency of these days. You relish the change. You draw it into your reality. For you know with quiet assurance that your success, and that of the Earth, are as good as done. You stand beneath a canopy of Truth, with your brother Michael’s sword and shield raised up in this Truth’s defense. Yet sadly, it is not so clear to all who dwell upon your planet. While you grow mighty in the coming days, so they shall become more fearful and confused and less sure of their place in this – the world they once found so safe and predictable, a world they believed they thrived within. Do you see where I go with this? This energy will not feel good to everyone. Consider a pair of shoes which are too tight or a mixture of foods that do not sit well in the stomach, fingers scratching on a chalkboard. They will recoil from these sweet energies as a thing to be feared, a defilement of their carefully constructed status quo. They shall feel cast adrift, poor souls, and shall need assistance – your assistance – to make it back to shore. I speak not only of the old forces, but of your friends and neighbors and members of your family. Fear must be contained, extinguished, at this crucial time. Rampant fear does nobody any good, and there will be much to trigger it in the coming months for those who have chosen to ignore the warning signs and hold fast to their outmoded ideals. Institutions shall crumble and new ways of living are set to be ushered in. You must take the hand of your brothers and sisters and show them the way. You must remain in a state of non-judgement and impartiality at all times. You must reach deep within yourselves and find your own vast stores of kindness and compassion, and when this runs dry, call to your Mother. She shall see to it that you have all the love that you need. You must be her shining example, the living embodiment of patience and compassion.

We of The Galactic Federation of Light, and The Councils, seek to make our presence known to you in the not so distant days to come. You who are our ground crews must assist us in this now, as this is a time when progress has the potential to be achieved. The proverbial floodgates are being thrown open. The light is blazing bright and it permeates all it touches, all who see it. The dark stands no chance to remain, as there is nowhere to run and no place to hide. Those in fear shall search to shelter themselves from it’s brilliance, but they shall search in vain. I watch your planet now, as I speak to you, from a place of comfort and softness. A place I dearly hope to share with each and every one of you in the days to come. High above, yet so surprisingly close. We are here. We praise your unselfishness, your goodness, as you extend a hand to those who are lost. May peace be with you.
