INSIGHTS
SEPTEMBER 2013

Dear Friend: 

As we enter the month of September, we finally get a respite from the extreme intensifications we've been experiencing most of this year. We need to take advantage of it because it only lasts through this month. (In fact, the month of October is going to be incredible.) Most of us will be feeling much calmer, less emotionally erratic, and people in general will be feeling a strong inner urging to get their lives in order. We'll be compelled to clean out our closets and drawers, to organize our files, to catch up on our correspondence, to deeply clean our houses, our garages and storage units - just generally wanting to get our lives in order. And because this is the last month this year where we have somewhat of a break in the action, so to speak, I recommend that if you celebrate the holidays, get your shopping preparations done now, because the rest of the year is going to fly by in an instant!

The inner urge to organize is typical for the months of September and October. I think it probably is genetically imprinted from all the generations of our ancestors who had to use these months to prepare for the change of seasons. It's a time of universal shifting. Those of us who live in the northern hemisphere feel a need to prepare for the winter - to put in our food storage and to make sure we have plenty of wood or coal for heat. (As a child, I remember we were harvesting our gardens and our orchards and canning, salting and drying foods for winter storage and getting our fuel supplies ready so we would be warm through the winter. My parents would make sure everyone had warm boots, coats and two quilts apiece.) Those in the southern hemisphere are compelled to do their spring cleaning, to air out their homes and clean out their closets and drawers in preparation for the summer months.

Regardless of where we live in the world, this is a time of change and there is within all of us a deep inner urging to prepare for the change that is soon to be upon us. We are feeling that urge for change even more strongly now as all of us have a powerful inner knowing that the entire world is soon going to be experiencing dramatic life-changing shifts. We feel a compelling urge to be prepared for that, even though we don't know exactly what those shifts are or exactly how to prepare for them. That's why I've been saying to you for the past several years to be prepared for all possibilities, because I feel that we're going to be experiencing many different kinds of changes through the next few years....and I mean changes in world financial markets, changes in the weather, changes of ongoing and escalating conflicts resulting from the polarization of religious and political ideologies that are already resulting in conflict. Every pre-cognitive person I know is in agreement that we have entered into a time of tremendous world change, and as we all know, change is born out of conflict.

So, we are feeling this urge to "get ready" for whatever it is that is going to happen. Most of us are taking precautions of one kind or another. There's even a very popular show on American television called Doomsday Preppers. This is a show about people who have many different beliefs about exactly what it is they're preparing for, but all of these people believe that some enormous event is getting ready to happen and that they must prepare a safe place with plenty of food, water and supplies stored so that they can survive whatever it is that is coming. They all believe that whatever is coming is going to be cataclysmic and world changing, and they believe only those who are prepared will survive.

I don't believe that the situation that we are soon to enter into is going to be as dire as many of these people fear, although I do have a very strong knowing that we have entered a time in which there are many different kinds of change that are taking place in the world, and one of those types of change is political and financial collapse of countries throughout the world. Whenever countries collapse politically and financially, they always fall into chaos. They always suffer from lack of food and water and become embattled simply because their people are struggling to survive. So I'm still urging everyone to be prepared for all things, for whatever may come to pass - to put in extra stores of food, water, medical supplies, etc. It's just good common sense to always be prepared for a potential event that might cause us to be without electricity and that might cause stores' shelves to empty out.

Actually, it's a strange phenomenon that in the midst of all this uncertainty that is in our world today, there is at the same time something happening that I can only call a Spiritual Awakening. A lot of people are experiencing/witnessing not just apparitions but what can only be defined as Angelic presences. During the past few months, many people have approached me because they have a deep need to tell someone about their "visitation". I know what they saw because their "visions" are very similar to ones that I have experienced.

I was perhaps twenty seven or twenty eight years old when I awakened one night with the realization that I was seeing a brilliant light. I reached up to touch my eyes to see if they were really closed, because it felt like they were wide open and indeed, they were closed. I opened my eyes and could see that the room was filled with a brilliant light. But most amazingly, floating just above me - so close that it seemed if I were to raise my hand, I could touch her, it was the most beautiful being I could ever imagine. I have to say that she was female because she had long flowing blondish-white hair and a very beautiful, feminine face. I want to say that she was dressed in white, but it could have been that she was surrounded by so much brilliance that the waves of light could have just appeared to be fabric. However, my sense of her was that she was dressed in a long diaphanous white gown, her hair flowing back behind her nearly to her waist, and her face was so beautiful that my eyes filled with tears as my being was filled with an incredibly powerful sense of love for her. It's hard to explain this - but I loved her deeply, and I felt an amazing sense of love flowing from her to me. It seemed to me that she remained above me for perhaps as long as thirty minutes, although it could have been only seconds - I don't know. The time that she remained there was perhaps elongated. At any rate, she remained above me with an expression of great compassion and a very small hint of a smile at the corner of her lips. But her eyes, as she looked at me, seemed to fill me with love.

Again, I have a hard time describing this and have told very few people about this experience, although the entire time she floated above me, I was shaking my husband as hard as I could, trying to wake him up so that he could see her. The very moment she disappeared from my view, he awakened. I tried to describe her to him as I'm trying to describe her to you now and found that I didn't have words then (just as I don't have words now) to adequately convey her absolutely profound beauty and the quality of her presence. It was overwhelming beyond words, and as I think about her, I can still feel the presence that is her in this moment although it has been perhaps forty-five years since that event.

I have been saying for some time now that we are experiencing what is called the Thinning of the Veil. I talked about it a bit in last month's newsletter. The thinning or lifting of the Veil (it's described in both terms) simply means that it is becoming possible, now, for us to see and hear those who exist in other dimensions. We've been having some of these experiences for many years, now, but during the past few years it has become more prevalent than ever before. We first experienced seeing a person standing just outside our peripheral view, yet when we turned to look at them, they disappeared....or we found ourselves hearing a person call our name, yet when we searched our environment, there was no one there. Many of us literally heard conversations between two or more people as clearly as if they were standing right beside us while talking with each other, but we couldn't quite make out what they were saying. It was as though their words were garbled.

But what seems to be happening the most now is that we've been having words or entire thoughts, images, complete Knowings impressed upon us; and we've had a feeling or knowing of a profoundly loving presence that is with us. Many of us have come to believe that that presence is with us with the intention of guiding us or helping us to live through the challenges of this earthly dimension. I have experienced what I call my Guidance, Samuel, since I was a very young child, but I wasn't completely aware of what I was experiencing or considered calling him my Guidance until I was in my early thirties. (One day soon I'll tell you the story about how that came to pass. My coming to know Samuel was quite an event for me.)

I think it's important for me to mention Samuel now because so many of you are having similar awarenesses and are knowing that you are being communicated with but don't know what it is that is striving to communicate with you....and perhaps are even fearful of it, especially if you have been strongly influenced by fundamentalist ideology to the extent that you might believe your Guidance could be something to be feared. What a sad thing that is, considering that the being that presents itself as Guidance offers itself fully to our welfare, to our growth in this dimension, and to aiding us in understanding the intent, cause and purpose of all of the events in our lives.

One of the things that I have been taught by Samuel is that every thing that happens in our lives is part of a greater plan and has purpose....has an intent that will become apparent to us as we move through the experience. Once we come to realize that all things are in purpose and that everything that happens in our lives (even the apparently most tragic event) is actually ultimately of benefit to us, it deepens our lives, it deepens us. It helps us to endure and in some cases, even to value some of our most difficult challenges. I have learned as I have moved through the many years of my life that the most difficult experiences of our lives are the ones that offer us the most in terms of growth and even the most profound blessings.

It is in times such as this that we are called upon to realize that it is the differences in us that attract us to each other....that one person's free-flowing thought process balances out the other person's rigid, straight-line thinking. If we can merge energies and harmonize, then we can accomplish greatly; we balance each other so that we each become more whole within ourselves. Do it together - use this time to harmonize - come together, agree upon what it is that the two of you want to accomplish, and then agree upon the way that you want to accomplish it. If you work together, you will discover that your energies unify and become a harmonious flow so that you will be able to accomplish all that you want to in a relaxed and joyful state of mind. The purpose of this time is for us to come together in harmony and to unify. I spoke of this at length in last month's newsletter. If you missed it, you can pull it up and read it at the bottom of this page.

So our task in this month is to practice patience, and I mean patience with others and patience with ourselves. In fact, we're even going to find ourselves needing to practice patience with inanimate objects. There will be times when we're absolutely certain that our car or television or toaster or some totally inanimate object is intentionally opposed to us and striving to thwart our every move!!! LOL....

It's quite a task I've put before you, and I'm going to ask you whenever you find yourself become frustrated and wanting to shout, cry or bite the dog, just pause, take a few deep breaths, and ask to be filled with patience. All we have to do is ask, and it is Given. Try it - it works!

Stay Focused on the Light...
