Look and listen around - news of people dying suddenly have been in our lives for quite a while now. Sometimes, people die without apparent reason, they just don't wake up. A good way to go. Lately, these news seem to have increased, at least in my circles. Although each individual person who died had family, friends, mourning their passing, and each individual case was heart wrenching for those who are very close, it has struck me as a very natural part of life in these times. Yesterday, I talked about how it came to be that the vision, the blue print for earth's increase in frequency has changed from a 3D approach of division and separation to a 4D approach of inclusiveness and compassionate embrace for all involved. Still, people seem to literally just drop off the earth.
I mean no disrespect to anyone who has suffered a loss. I wish to emphasize and acknowledge, that each individual case is to be mourned, even if we accept the facts of life and death. I personally wish to express my heart felt sympathy to anyone who has lost dear friends, acquaintances or even family members.
Why does a life not continue, even if there is no apparent medical reason? Why is it that accidents have increased and claimed lives lately? Why is it that people just don't wake up one day, even though they are healthy ?
These deaths are the souls whose personal blueprints were based on the initial apocalyptic vision of "two thirds of everything will perish". Those personal blueprints were up for negotiation of course as the new more inclusive vision was created by mankind. Each soul had the option to go back to the drawing board and re-design their initial blueprint (contract) for this life time. For some the outcome of death before the shift remained. Those are the people who leave earth at this time, a lot of them with inexplicable causes, some through simple diseases that would be curable, some through accidents and some at the hand of another. Of course, there are those whose life span was meant to run out by this time anyways, they just simply decided that a new body would be preferable to be experiencing the shift, so they come very quickly again. Birth rates have not gone down.
As far as I can view it, these deaths are the very honorable decisions of many souls. These deaths are the assessments that need to be respected. To give a viewpoint like this may appear callous or even cold hearted, but if you truly engage and merge with the energy present here, you will find the sense of correctness in it all.
For some people, the experience of loss carries the teaching of recognition that all is one. Some folks go through this teaching without really losing anyone to death, but their loved ones just simply fade away, through circumstances that they may never have been willing to dream up in their waking state. I find these losses to be almost harder to bear, for they leave the ever so slight hope and potential for attachment, that these loved ones will re-join in the higher frequency at a later date.
I personally have experienced very closely this second kind of loss, where family members made the decision to stay where they were, whereas I moved along. Some did so consciously, which is almost preferable, and some did so unconsciously, meaning they just are where they are and experience what they experience. My love for all of them is everlasting, it does not matter what the earthly drama was, what made them decide to stay in 3D for a while longer - it is their blueprint and my stance is pretty much in line with Solomon... you gotta let them go/be, in order not to hurt them further. It is after all not in my power to decide for another.

Giving Birth
The waves of the birthing process from 3D into 4D are palpable these days. They come in quicker and quicker succession. If you have never even heard of any waves, try this to see whether you have been noticing them anyways: Some days you wake up refreshed and upbeat and others you wake up emotional, dead tired, exhausted, as if you had partied or rather worked your behinds off rather than gone to sleep. Except for those who actually did party and have a legitimate reason to feel beat the next morning, those who feel that way after nice 8-9 hourse of solid uninterrupted sleep have experienced a night of hard core work. Work on the energetic plane of this birthing process. I don't know what each one of you is doing in particular, I only know where my job lies.
Anyways - Sometimes you work, you know you work, you wake up and manage your normal day and then, you feel great, as the birthing wave (similar to contractions) is swinging into the good feeling part of the "meter". You may feel great momentum, a sense of anticipation and urge to move on, just to be disappointed again with a sense of let down. For those among you who have actually gone through childbirth, you may have a sense of what this urge, forward momentum followed by the let down is - yes, that's when the baby slips back a bit... until the next contraction.
A friend of mine said to that analogy: "yes, great, but sometimes it's a still birth " - or "the mother may die in the process." I believe what my friend wanted to express was that one can also hang too long in the throes of birth.
True, but i have a feeling, that it'll be a successful birth. That may be caused by an incorrigible sense of naivete or optimism perhaps - no, I think it's my child like state of naivete, or perhaps Neptune as the first planet in my natal chart, yes let's blame my visionary or dreamer qualities on Neptune, that'll do for today !
Anyways, I know from this ability to vision that my vision is still a good one, a positive one, the outcome is favorable, although, in the new experience, if there will be people alive then, who are now experiencing Earth in the time of the great shift, I fear they will be horribly bored by the absence of drama.
Yes, a birthing process is quite dramatic in nature, but there is also something organic, something rather pragmatic about it - if you let go of a need for control, if you let the process unfold as it is lined up to unfold. If you manage to trust that "everything is as it is supposed to be" (another term borrowed), you will navigate the energetic waves, the energetic contractions of this process with a sense of calm understanding. That will do the mother who does such an intense job a whole lot better than the stressed out drama that humans tend to create at any instance of anything halfway important. I guess what I am saying today is - remain true to your hearts, believe that the birth will be a successful one and perhaps find a stance of compassion for the mother - Earth that is...

Already There
I have written about the lofty goal of reaching critical mass regarding the belief system that we could create our own world, a better world. I have written this with my own belief that we as a human collective are not there yet, we need to get there first.
Now it's time to climb out onto another limb.
I am relaying the information that we are already there. There is nothing we have to achieve first. There is nothing we have to work towards. Critical mass has been reached as far as the belief goes that we can instantly create whatever we desire. Enough people believe this and repeatedly confirm their beliefs by actually actively and consciously creating their hearts' desires successfully. (Thanks go out to all those who have tirelessly spread the news !)
It is my hearts desire that critical mass would be reached for folks to know how to create a different world around themselves. The crystal grids are in place and functioning, we (humans) are all allowed to actively, consciously connect with that grid and get going with creations of our own. Consciousness levels still vary, if we took a cross section of people randomly, but the blueprint that we can create whatever we wish, is in place and the moment a person wakes up to this idea, it will instantly (and painlessly) activate within them and be fully functional.
The whole notion that everyone should be part of this scenario is such a noble one. It is a newer notion, born out of enough creative force, out of the voices who were loudly proclaiming that they are unable to fathom losing their families and friends to 3D whilst moving on to 5D. Those voices have pleaded, they have said: "I am increasing my frequency, if you give more time to my friends and family so they can too - I don't want to leave them behind!"
A prayer for someone else is one of the strongest energies in the universe and so humanity created that indeed, the main blueprint, the main plan for the shift into the 4th dimension would undergo a change - instead of apocalyptic changes which were prophesied by many different folks, sages, shamans etc. the vision has changed. It has become one of integration, rather than separation. (rather the inclusive 5D approach to the shift than the initially conceived 3D approach of separation, of weeding out, a change which reflects the increased frequency and consciousness of mankind and was very much applauded by our helpers) This is the exact result of what I am talking about above. Humankind has reached the understanding (at least in their energetic make up) that their wishes will be met. Their beliefs and wishes will create a different scenario, a different experience.
The power this revelation holds is quite immense if you take the time to think about it's implications. It takes great courage to step into this state actively in full consciousness. There will not be any more leeway to say: "Well, I didn't know!" - You do know! and you are responsible for what you create - always. The energy of the heart, the main drive that permeates the 4th dimension will be your very best guide in this new power. If you keep in mind that you are not your singular, separate body. If you keep in mind that you are but a droplet from a vast sea of consciousness, that you are in fact unified and directly connected with everyone else, that which ever creation you desire to bring forth does have an impact on the whole - it cannot be otherwise - then you will realize that at first you may be like me, sitting in your corner, like the legendary mesmerized bunny before the snake. Then, with some time to sit and contemplate the snake, that bunny can take a hop towards the snake and even see itself to be a part of the snake and know that there is nothing to fear. All it takes is the absolute understanding that we are all one and what I do in my life does affect others - everyone else really, even if they never know that it was my creation in particular that did cause a ripple in their life. It seems to be an unsurmountably great chunk of responsibility to carry. Well, ultimately, it is quite simple. Ensure that your wishes and desires never hold harm for anyone else - do not harm anyone ! ... that's it - as simple as that.
It can't be that simple ? - yes it can, for when you reside in your heart space, when your love for the whole, for all others and yourself is in place and active, then you cannot do harm. The creation of harm becomes a thing of the past, a faded memory of the 3rd dimension into which we were born so that we could be part of this shift.

My Higher Self and I
You may have heard it a number of time now - identify with your higher self!, let your higher self in!, connect to your higher self! - In the old paradigm, there was work to be done before the higher self could be "reached". This old paradigm had its purpose, but to keep it alive now can appear rather counter productive. Critical Mass has been reached on the belief that transformation and personal growth can be instantaneous now. To keep holding the belief that you have to meditate for hours every day, before you might, eventually, sometime down the road encounter a glimpse of a connection, is simply odd, given the information that you can have it all and have it now. I have come to know people to be rather attached to instant gratification, but also attached to the drama of a long and arduous process where a lot of suffering has to be done before being rewarded. Suffering, or penance perhaps ?...
Truth is, you can have it the way you like it - have it long and drawn out, arduous and then finally eventually get a glimpse of a "reward" (how linear !) or spiral freely into the flow of increasing your frequency along with the elevated frequencies permeating the planet at this time, at the mere pronouncement of your heart felt intention (desire) to become aware of your higher self on an ongoing basis, to finally identify with the higher self (how spiral !) The choice is yours, but you do have a choice in this, so I will not decide for you what your choice should be, for that would be indoctrination. I am here merely to speak of the availability of these choices (and many shades in between). It is with the power of your belief system that you create the reality you experience, every day anew. If things have been slow going, if transformation required huge amount of dedicated practice of some sort or another, then you can see that your belief system still holds to the old notions that were in fact true in the 1980s.... Let's face it, the 80s had great music, hideous glasses and the hair ! ??... I will not even try to mention the legwarmers ! Legwarmers!!...(yes, in a way I'm telling you: "C'mon, we're not in the 80s any longer !")
So how does one really go about getting in touch with one's higher self ? Well, you all have a heart, right? You know that pump in your chest, and that emotional heart that feels love and all the feelings? ...yeah - that is the heart I'm talking about. The closest you may have come into contact with universal love is when you lay eyes on your newborn baby for the first time (and then time and time again on your child). That is that deep love that connects us all, that we are in essence. The joy that one can derive from experiencing that love is unmistakable. When the heart is open, the intent to become aware of one's higher self can be given. With that intent, you will set things in motion that will comply with your wish. There will be a variety of scenarios that I don't know of, but they will be individual. At some point in the process there will be a flooding in your heart chakra (energy center on your chest), and the energy that floods your heart chakra is unconditional love. If you hit upon this feeling, you've hit jackpot - the motherload so to speak - the unending flow of unconditional love, the very essence, the stuff you're made of. Yes, that is YOU! - fun !... (hey, it's self-love!)
When you come across this moment, or have come across this moment before and are now refreshing the experience, know this: it is OK to identify with this energy as "I". It really is OK - well, it's not only ok, it's actually preferable in my point of view.
Once you experience this awareness of you, your life will change. Uh-oh! your life will change ! ... Scary, right? ... well, it may change, but it will only change for the better, for you have come to a place of greater understanding of who you are and therefore, you will create a different, greater experience, based on this understanding that you are this love energy. The change works as follows. Things, that have supported your old belief of yourself (the lower self = "I") will no longer be true, and thus no longer be required and eventually fall away (unless you re-create the old belief system). You will experience things in your life that are more supportive of your new belief of "This is who I am". The change from one state of identity to the next may be one of identity crisis for a short while, but relax in the simple knowledge, that to be this great amount of unconditional love has got to be preferable than what was before. (at least that is what I said at the time of my crisis).
Another bonus: Once you fully identify with your higher self and refer to it when you say "I", you will no longer be unaware of the interconnectedness of all that is - you will become aware of the oneness of everything and you will see yourself as a spark, a droplet which is part of the great sea of unified field consciousness. (term borrowed, but I like it).

Happy Halloween
Today, I'm tempted to just write: "Happy Halloween !" I'm entirely too busy crafting costumes to write anything of value, but I have the faint suspicion that I'm not gonig to get off the hook that easy.
Being Swiss, I'm too far removed from the Halloween craze, but ultimately, I know my kids just want to have fun and get lots of candy. I am not going to ponder any deeper notion than this today, others can do that. I do however feel a topic coming on and it's one of JOY !
If you are trick-or-treating with your kids tonight, you can derive joy by watching their happy faces. If you give out candy, you can derive joy by watching their happy faces ! - If you wish, you can decide to be susceptible to their joy and trust me, it may be contagious. I am one of the greatest organized-holiday-grinches but I try real hard to catch at least that glimpse of joy from their joy. So if you aren't deliriously happy today that Winter is upon us, you can possibly be at least grinning inwardly in the glow of the joy these little monsters bring to your doorstep.
Happy Halloween Everyone !

A Gift from Venus
I have written about a lot of things already. It's quite random, but in line with coincidence (i.e. directed by the unified field of consciousness) I realize that most of my posts are timely and "just right". I do get feedback about this curious little fact as well. Believe me, if I say that none of my topics are planned, none of the timing is worked out by my lower self.
This instills a great trust in the correctness of what is going on in this blogging process and hence I am trusting that which comes through today, as regards its timeliness and pertinence of content.
This weekend a lot of energetic influence from Venus is hitting Earth directly. Perhaps you have already emarked since the beginning of this week to reconnect with loves that you thought were lost in the depths of the past. Perhaps you have had an experience that instilled fear and reminded you that to say "I love you" before leaving your loved ones is a good idea. Perhaps you just found yourself in a soft glow of universal love for a bit now. Or, perhaps, (and there are many more possible scenarios) you find yourself lonely, abandoned and lacking that content, warm, cozy feeling in your heart we call love.
There is one sort of love that connects us all - no, in fact, it IS what we ARE - as a whole. Even in our little parts, we are love, the same way that a drop of water is the same as the whole body of water. This energy of universal consciousness that IS all that IS is in fact love. How can we possibly allow the thought and belief that we as individuals may even be part of the greater one, but not made of the very same stuff ? It simply makes no logical sense. So for me it holds true that if I love that greater one (whichever name you prefer to use for it), then you have to love yourself by proxy, for you are exactly made of the same stuff !
How come, self-love or the lack of ability to embrace that love for oneself whilst we fully feel the love for the greater whole is so rampant here on earth? It is at the core of things possibly the most important feature that we should be learning ! How to love oneself !...
There are many wisdom traditions that speak of the very same thing. It's not news, yet we have this tendency to forget, or at least at times disallow the love for ourselves. How can we reside in a more constant flow and awareness of this love ? There are tons of methods out there and no, I'm not proposing any of them nor am I endorsing a particular one - It's an individual journey for each one of you out there and it's most definitely not my job to suggest how you get there. All I am saying is: "You have a heart - use it!"
Use it for you the same as you would for whom you genuinely love. If you don't know how to use it, then intend to use it and things will ensue that bring forth the issues you need to look at in order for this natural state of self-love to kick back in. Yes I am saying "kick back in" because once, as a kid - we knew how !...(sound familiar ...the child thing?) It's a natural state of being, the awareness of love for the whole goes hand in hand with the awareness of love for oneself, for other creatures in our lives, the respect for others that ensues when we manage to find that state is easy and natural.
This weekend, the energies of Venus do facilitate this opening or widening of the heart's capacity to embrace this very important point. So with this I ask each of you to take your imagination and seek out the center of your chests - the heart center (chakra) - from there, feel ...feel deeply .... feel the energy that is naturally in that energetic center. Once you feel that energy, fill every cell of your body with this energy of love - you deserve it, for I am certain, most cells feel rather starved just about now. If this feels as good as a hot shower on a cold rainy day, then do it often - as often as you like, for truly, we have deprived ourselves of this love for so long, it's time to soak it all in again!

If you don't know how to use it, then intend to use it and things will ensue that bring forth the issues you need to look at in order for this natural state of self-love to kick back in. Yes I am saying "kick back in" because once, as a kid - we knew how !...(sound familiar ...the child thing?) It's a natural state of being, the awareness of love for the whole goes hand in hand with the awareness of love for oneself, for other creatures in our lives, the respect for others that ensues when we manage to find that state is easy and natural.
This weekend, the energies of Venus do facilitate this opening or widening of the heart's capacity to embrace this very important point. So with this I ask each of you to take your imagination and seek out the center of your chests - the heart center (chakra) - from there, feel ...feel deeply .... feel the energy that is naturally in that energetic center. Once you feel that energy, fill every cell of your body with this energy of love - you deserve it, for I am certain, most cells feel rather starved just about now. If this feels as good as a hot shower on a cold rainy day, then do it often - as often as you like, for truly, we have deprived ourselves of this love for so long, it's time to soak it all in again!

Authenticity
I would like to speak of "authenticity" today. What is authenticity and what implications does it have in my daily life? When am I truly authentic and when am I somewhat "fake", i.e. when am I removed from true authenticity?
A synonym of authenticity is genuineness. To be genuine. It's polar opposite would be counterfeit or imitative. Now that's a good word for me - imitative. I believe I have spent many years in this world imitating what others did, just to fit in. I have taken my time to get up the nerve to be bold enough to be who I truly am and even that may not always be in absolute alignment with my true essence, but reflect a daily "state" or "level" of authenticity, which can vary.
What does it mean to be in absolute alignment with my true essence? It's easy to spew words, it's rather more difficult to get an inner sense as to what they mean for each person. I can only divulge what it means for me, how it feels inside, not to suggest that it should feel like this for anyone else, but perhaps there are similarities ? For me, being in absolute alignment with my true essence means that I feel myself expand. The "thing" I call "I" being my energy, my essence at its center. With this expansion, I feel burdens and beliefs fall away, I see clarity come in as I experience a myriad of things all at once and have learned not to dabble in trying to understand what I see, for that brings the sensation of expansion to a halt, because I focus on something in particular. If I keep focusing on my essence, on that center point, which by the way is located in my heart area on my physical body, I can keep the exansion up for quite a long time. I have tried to do housework in that state and had to realize that I better not do that, nor operate any kind of heavy machinery ! This state is not really conducive for worldly things, it is a state of spirituality, of authenticity as to my inner nature. I do somewhat lose identification with my phyiscal body and faculties.
There are many states in between the physical identification and that of absolute authenticity. I am not suggesting that one goes about physical life and every day tasks in this expanded state. However, what I am suggesting is that the information, the certainty that we may glean of who we truly are, that this certainty of our absolute authenticity remains. With this certainty, we can channel our authentic self into the physical body, we can bring this awareness into how we execute our daily tasks. We can navigate emotional upsets by touching upon this certainty. Of course there's polarity here, so we will waver - but if we practice the meditative (centering) state and have awareness of who we are, how big and all knowing we truly are, then more mundane things will hardly cause the ripples they have caused in the past.
With the full awareness of our authentic selves comes the awareness of "all is one". It cannot be otherwise, for in the sense of expansion, one can observe how the parts become whole again (like water droplets forming a puddle). To fully understand that oneness with our physical mental capacity is at this time not easily possible, but what we can take from this is the awareness that on some level, we truly are but one energy - all of us humans, all of the animals, the minerals, the plants, all of the planets, all of the galaxies, the universes and all of creation. With this awareness we instantly fall into a place of heartfelt compassion and humility. The process of gaining the awareness of our authenticity brings so much more, it brings instant connection to our mission in life, it brings absolute certainty of our path, it brings understanding of greater plans and connections of why certain people do certain things.
Most of all, it brings peace.
