From the Rabbit Hole: 7/20/08

We wish to discuss several aspects of human psychological
response to the planetary and interdimensional changes that are
now taking place. Sensitive individuals are the most prone to
these types of responses, yet they are also showing up for those
who are spiritually unaware and primarily focused upon material reality.

What we are describing is a global sense of hopelessness,
bordering on despair for some individuals; a sense that there is
nothing that one can do to change the course of events. For some
this leads to a type of depression, a lack of motivation; and
that which gave life meaning, purpose and joy, now seems empty.

For others it is a sense of being extremely disconnected from
their lives, as if they are watching a movie. They go through
the motions of living a life, but their hearts are not in it.
For others who are consciously connected to the web of life, the
loss of species, the destruction of the eco-system is especially
difficult to contend with. For those who are focused primarily
upon their material reality, the 3-D life they live, these times
are increasingly anxiety provoking for the financial concerns
that we predicted some time ago are now upon you, and they will
only worsen.

In addition, the evolutionary and catalytic waves from deep
space that we have mentioned before continue to escalate. Those
who attempt to control you through economics, politics and
religion are finding it increasingly difficult, yet they are
strengthening their efforts, and some individuals aware of these
tensions feel caught in the middle.

For, indeed, from the standpoint of time and space, you are
caught in the middle. You are caught in the middle of the
tensions between evolution and devolution, spiritually speaking.
You are at the center-point of time and space. This is an
energetically intense place to be and from the standpoint of the
soul, or the spark of consciousness that you are — your
interdimensional reality, or however you wish to describe this
to yourself — these are potent, powerful times.

From our standpoint there is nothing that an individual can do
to prevent the dissolution of that which needs to be dissolved.
The planetary changes are upon you. If you are able to take
collective and individual action, some of the more intense forms
of destructive change can be mitigated or lessened. But some of
them cannot be stopped, or to be more accurate, we would say
that it is improbable.

Your opportunity as a soul — as a spiritual being living a
human life — is to navigate through these changes in ways
that strengthen you and lift you upward, even as those around
you seem to spiral into negativity, despair and acting out of
their self-destructiveness. As you look to the human collective
and see the self-destructiveness, the stubbornness to change,
the tendency to stupidity, look also to yourself for these seeds
are within you as well.

We have given previously our views of what your near future will
unfold, and we shall not describe them again. You can look to
the archives if you are interested. What we feel most important
to convey at this time is how you must find the spiritual
courage to rise up, as many around you seem to be falling. And
by falling we mean specifically moving into lower states of
spiritual quality.

How do you navigate your life through a sea that is filled with
fear, hostility, paranoia, constraint, lies, and manipulation?

The journey of an Initiate, which is the path of living upward
in consciousness, regardless of the spiritual lineage or ways of
describing it, is quite simply the passage through the eye of a
needle, or the eye of the storm.

Let us use the metaphor of hurricanes or cyclones — for
they shall be increasing in number and intensity. If you are at
the edge of the storm you are exposed to the destructive power
of the wind and water. But if you are in the eye of the storm,
it is, paradoxically, calm. You can see the edge of the storm in
a circle at the far horizon, but in the center, all is still and calm.

This center point of the storm is what you must find in
yourself, from our perspective. This is the path of the
Initiate, the spiritual master. There is no one who can teach
you this. There is no one who can save you from the storms that
are upon you, and by this we mean both the external storms of
your weather, your politics and your economics, as well as earth
changes, but we also mean the internal storms, your
psychological and emotional conflicts, as you live in the midst
of a world that is dissolving into a new world that has not yet
become. There is little solid ground here and such states of
recognition are anxiety provoking for most humans.

Most of you have not learned how to dance with chaos in a
gracious manner, but don't be concerned about this. For soon you
shall have many dance lessons and opportunities to be at peace
with the partner of chaos, the swirling uncertainty.

In these times it will be easier to surrender to the downward
spiral than live upward. And yet, living upward in consciousness
is why you are here in this time — from our perspective.

There is a battle taking place on earth for your very spirit,
your heart and mind. We have talked before about the nature of
this manipulation and so we need not discuss it here. Again, we
refer you to the archives if you are so interested. The
essential point we wish to make here is that this is a time to
rise upward in yourself, to take the high spiritual ground, to
find in yourself the spiritual courage to not succumb to the
downward spiral, to find a way to live upward in yourself even
in the midst of increasing chaos, difficulties and seeming disasters.

We say seeming disasters because interdimensionally the
events that take place in your life, such as catastrophes,
storms, famine, loss of jobs, and so on, are multi-dimensional
in nature. Certainly from the localized space of your being that
is locked into time and space, your embodied self, these events
are very difficult to deal with, and are catastrophes of varying
degrees. But from the standpoint of your interdimensional self
— your soul, the spark of consciousness, however you wish
to describe it — these events are opportunities for
immense growth and acceleration of spiritual evolution.

It is not the situation that you find yourself in that binds
you, it is how you view it that imprisons or frees you.

And so in whatever situations you may find yourself in the
coming years, we say to you there are many doorways to freedom
in consciousness. Some of these doorways will involve
interacting with those around you in new ways — stepping
out of the box of perception you have been sold.

Some of these doorways will be finding a common ground with
those whom you might call your enemies. Some of these doors are
personal and are simply the space of a new relationship between
you and your interdimensional realities. Some of these doors
will lead you into interaction with the problems of this earth,
of humanity, discovering new ways to solve problems that are
outside the constraints of your current thinking, and some of
these doors will lead you beyond earth, into other spiritual
realities. The doors you choose lead you into new destinies.

If you continue to use the doors that have been given to you by
your culture through their lies and manipulation, you will
participate in a vast catastrophe. But we wish you to understand
clearly a phenomenon of creation. The doors you open will lead
you to a destiny that is unique, even if many around you enter
through other doorways. In other words, do not buy into
the mass hypnosis of what door you should open and enter through.

What we mean by the door of mass hypnosis is that those who wish
to control you through economics, politics and religion, do so
through subtle and not so subtle suggestion. It is not for us to
say to you which doors you should open, for that is your task as
a spiritual master, but what we can say to you is the obvious.

Each door leads to a unique destination, or destiny, and you can
choose doors that lead you into joy and happiness, even as
others are choosing doors that lead them to despair and sadness.
Again, it is not the situation that binds you; it is your
perception of it.

Let us get a little more concrete here. Let us say that you have
lost your job, the source of your income. This is a very
challenging and anxiety-provoking situation. Panic is one of the
doors that are available to you. Blame is another door that is
always available. Curiosity as to what might open next is also a
door that is available to you. If you choose the door of
curiosity, you open yourself to new possibilities. You will then
have not shut your consciousness down into the lower vibrations
of panic, anger and blame. They may surface from time to time,
but if you keep your focus upon curiosity regarding what chaos
will bring you next, you can discover new solutions to your
problems in a much quicker way.

There is a tendency for human consciousness to repeat old
patterns; this is based upon expectation, which is a form of
memory rooted in the illusion of time, as you perceive it. It is
possible to cut through your perception of time and accelerate
to solutions to problems faster than would normally take place,
but this is done through the door of consciousness that only you
can open. It is done through both personal intent and action.

We realize that there are many levels of understanding on the
part of those who read these words. The challenge for us is to
communicate something that will be practical for all of those
reading this. Some of you already know exactly what we are
speaking to, and know that there are doors within you that you
can open that will lead you to higher destinies, fast
resolutions to problems without getting bogged down like many of
those around you. Some of you think and feel that you do not
have the right for happiness or freedom of mind and heart, while
others are suffering and imprisoned. But we say to you that the
greater service you can render to your follow humanity, is to
free yourself from the imprisonment of limited consciousness,
for then you can interact with others in new ways, and through
those interactions new doors can reveal themselves.

And so when you find yourself disheartened, disillusioned,
disconnected, and with no desire for your life, realize that you
have simply wandered through one of the doors of your own
consciousness, and that there are forces who celebrate your
apathy, for then you are more easily controlled. In these
moments of recognition that you are in a lower vibratory
expression of your potential, seize the moment, step out of that
doorway into another.

Now, the difficulties that some of you may be experiencing may
seemingly preclude any choice in your outer reality, but we say
to you that the power of choice resides within you, regardless
of the conditions you find yourself in. In the most difficult
moments, when all doors seem closed to you, when there are no
options seemingly available, we have a simple suggestion. It may
sound trite and too simple, but it is simply a leverage point.
For all that is required to change a situation is a small
movement in consciousness, and then as you build upon this
movement, vast powers within you are released. But until you
have movement within you, of some kind, nothing can change.

And so this is our suggestion for how to create a small movement
within you when everything else has failed. Even in the midst of
personal torment, external difficulties, whatever presents
itself to you as the difficulty, find something to appreciate.

It might be as simple as that you can breathe, or if your breath
is constrained, when you can take a breath, you appreciate the
breath. Or it could be appreciating a color in the sky or
something that made you laugh. What is important here is that
when all options are closed, if you find something to feel
appreciation for, no matter how small, you have created a small
movement in consciousness, and with that movement great things
can unfold.

We sense that some of you will ride through these storms that
are upon you, the winds of change, more gracefully than others.
But even you, who consider yourselves to be spiritually evolved,
may be challenged from time to time as the old world dissolves
into something new. And we sense that some of you will be caught
in the grips of the chaotic times, and it is our hope that you
will recall this simple suggestion, and remember to find
something to appreciate, and with that movement in consciousness
you will find new doors to open.

We hold in our hearts, our minds, a vision of great new
realities for you and your human family. May it be so. May you
make it so.
