Self-growth – Sheridan Cooke

Lifting barriers to freedom

The pain that made you the odd one out is the story that connects you to a healing world.
“Eleven” by Tanya Markul

There is no one in the world who knows and understands your story better than you do. That being said, there might be aspects of your inner realm that know the pain you’ve felt and the silent extents you’ll go to in order to keep that area safe, no matter the cost.

If happiness has been unreliable, then you might be subconsciously avoiding it. The same can also hold true for love.

As Mother Mary has mentioned before, “Let us begin anew.”

“’Final sale’ sounds much like ‘final sail,’” El Morya would tell you. No matter how you spell it, “pain” and “pane” will always sound the same.

Are you willing to allow the winds of change to open a few windows and doors so you can journey with the soul’s light at the helm, guiding the way?

Would you consciously drop anchor where you are now if you felt, deep within, that another harbour was beckoning you?

If you wish to take stock of your life, don’t forget that there are many who would willingly trade places with you.

Focus on gratitude first and let it build so that it fuels the fires of freedom within. That is where true change begins.

If I were to challenge you to do one thing today, it would be to make a difference in someone’s life. Do not hesitate to let that “someone” be you.

Fill your well to fuel your will and allow yourself the compassion and grace you didn’t receive in the past.

As “change” forms part of “challenge,” so is it within you to drop anchor in this Now moment with the following mantra in mind:

“I AM worthy of being seen and heard.”

Let that echo within your inner chamber and allow the song of the soul to repeat these words as often as they are needed:

“Your voice matters.”

As “moment” similarly forms part of “movement,” so is it within your soul’s power to provide whatever light is needed to guide you forward.

The worst thing about making a mistake isn’t that some people won’t accept an apology, it’s that they’ll begin to filter their perceptions through the myopic lens of a single event and not look at the totality of the other person’s overall behaviour.

For some, judging (or, rather, misjudging) is a redirection (or perhaps a projection) so that their own transgressions will no longer be at the forefront of their minds, if they actually were at all. (I’m mentioning this because the residue of their own hurts and disgruntlements might be lurking in the shadows and will only respond when triggered.)

“If no one else projected their unmet needs or unhealed wounds, what kind of world would we live in?” a few might be considering asking aloud.

No one will ever be “perfect” in the eyes of another. That stated, what is considered a high standard for some might be the bare minimum for another.

You are all perfectly imperfect, as are those of us who have been overseeing humanity’s evolution for far longer than some might believe.

The secret teachings of centuries past were guarded carefully by the people who sought to keep them safely hidden from those who tended to condemn inner freedom because it distracted from the belief that an external hierarchy was necessary to gain enlightenment—or forgiveness, for that matter.

Remember that the Earth is still round, regardless of those who continue to believe otherwise. Remember, too, that you will always be worthy of the soul’s love, regardless of those who continue to believe otherwise, as well.

The sooner love is placed at the forefront of your personal and collective belief systems, the sooner the peace that has eluded cluttered minds and hearts will begin to poke through, ushering forward a period of tremendous growth.

Healing requires feeling. You cannot hold anyone hostage, metaphorically speaking. You must choose to liberate yourself from anything that prevents love from being the source of your inner fulfilment.

You do not need to escape. You need to focus on freedom.

Trust that your soul would never shame or shun periods when you might have stumbled.

What matters is that you pick yourself up.

Every.

Single.

Time.

The soul keeps score far better than the ego ever will.

Try that one on for size. It might fit better than you think.

Flowing forward

The height of a man’s success is gauged by his self-mastery; the depth of his failure by his self-abandonment.
Leonardo da Vinci

What brings you a sense of peace and equanimity within?

What sets you apart from those around you who tend to misjudge you from time to time?

Do you ever wonder what your soul thinks about those who act one way toward your face yet the complete opposite behind your back?

It is not our role to deny conflict from existing, but to find a way to act as catalysts for peace so that the polarities can be integrated, both within yourself and the person with whom there is a slight discord.

If you feel called to serve the world’s healing, trust that doing so requires a good, honest look at where things have fallen out of alignment. Try to give others as well as yourself the benefit of the doubt, and don’t hold onto anger and resentment, which are impediments to the soul’s love.

Do not underestimate your soul’s strength or your intuition, for they are formidable allies that will guide you through waters that might seem less than hospitable. To that end, we hope you find value in the message this scribe was recently requested to transcribe on behalf of Djwhal Khul and El Morya.

Maitreya

✨

“It is time to manoeuvre through the quagmire,” the infidel said.

“I never agreed to go through a swamp,” the cynic declared.

“To some, the swamp is protective,” Djwhal Khul remarked. “It is merely temporary, as are all things that annoy people. The mistake so many tend to make is allowing little things get to them. This does not do any favours for the physical vessel.”

“Neither does the swamp,” snorted the cynic, who was soon sopping wet. Within moments, however, a waterfall appeared, and the cynic was able to wash his clothes while feeling refreshed in the sun and clear water.

“It is said that Quan Yin visited these same waters,” Djwhal Khul continued. “They were considered sacred within her circle, and she, too, concurred that while the swamp was unpleasant, the reward was worth the effort and the time it took to get here.”

The fool looked around and felt a sense of peace that had eluded the group for quite some time.

“When do you think you’ll meet him?” the young girl asked the woman. “And don’t tell me that you don’t care, because I know you do.”

“There are others who will gladly step forward when my time with you has passed,” Djwhal Khul mentioned, stopping the woman from overthinking, which never did her any good.

“Being love is different from praying for it, you know,” he added, causing the woman to look up from the journal she had been writing in.

“I’m not sure why, but I feel like I’m going to run into someone I once dated,” she replied.

“Maybe, maybe not,” D.K. said. “But I’m glad you’re starting to feel more optimistic. It wouldn’t be such a bad idea to reconsider going back to England. Glastonbury has been calling your name for a handful of years and returning to the U.K. would feel like a homecoming of sorts.”

“The pull is strong, but I don’t know if it’s time, just yet.”

“Give yourself a few months. You might change your mind.”

“Djwhal Khul …” the young girl asked in a questioning tone. “Why have I been outcast?”

“It can be challenging to release those who no longer serve your soul’s purpose. Send them gratitude and remember that you, too, have left behind those who did not meet you where you wanted and needed to be.”

The woman then heard a familiar voice say, “As far as soul contracts go, many of you instantly know when an important person enters your sphere. Do not ignore the intuitive prompting that often accompanies these encounters, yet detach yourself from what you believe the outcome should be. Everyone has certain limits, and while some chomp at the bit to broaden and deepen them, others will stand as far back from the edge of taking a leap of faith for fear of falling face first into depths of despair.”

“Has that happened to you before?” El Morya asked the woman as he stepped forward fully.

“I had a feeling you were nearby,” she answered.

“When have I willingly denied an opportunity to witness your growth?”

“Not that I can recall,” the cynic said, looking around at the scenery.

“Ah, synergy and scenery,” El Morya said. “So many words can easily be modified to mean something else. Some might say that the entire alphabet is alchemical in nature.”

“Where to now?” the infidel inquired.

A dragon suddenly appeared overhead. The woman gasped with delight, as it had been a few years since any dragons had entered their circle.

“They are forbearers of tremendous change,” Djwhal Khul stated. “Remember that you have come this far because you are a warrior by nature.”

“And now she’s a warrior in nature,” the fool teased.

El Morya chuckled and then looked at the woman with a solemn expression. “You must not fear transitioning to higher planes. This brief respite was meant to remind you that even when things have fallen apart, you have the will and the strength to rebuild. An Adept’s journey is not unlike that of a Chela, but it will require you to practice more self-control. Let silence be your friend and not your enemy. The soul can be heard when the cacophony of the world has been set aside, even if it is only for a few short minutes each day. Trust its wisdom, as well as your own. Freedom is one of the rewards of self-mastery.”

“And so it is,” declared the young girl.

Enlightenment beyond the world you know

There’s always another level up. There’s always another ascension. More grace, more light, more generosity, more compassion, more to shed, more to grow.
Elizabeth Gilbert

It is rare for the Buddha to step forward during our sessions with this scribe. We hope you find his words meaningful.

Melchizedek

✨

Resolve to evolve.

Attaining enlightenment was not entirely the goal of my self-imposed period of solitude so I could come to terms with all the chaos I was witnessing throughout my time on Earth when I was known as Siddhartha Gautama.

There were others who came before me and many others who came after me to bring Ascension Codes to Gaia. We did this in subtle ways so as to not create discord within communities as a whole but to magnify the discordance within those who were attempting to move forward but were still stuck in old patterns that denied them the freedom the soul has always sought at the root of each chosen lifetime.

Our belief systems struck a nerve with many, just as they continue to do with those who have denied their own inner perspectives to be questioned and answered.

You do not need to bow down to me. What I would like you to do, however, is stay strong in the face of those who resolutely refuse to condemn themselves while acting as tyrants toward those who have chosen to be in service of others.

Mainstream religion has denied several truths from coming to the forefront, and women who were seen as stronger than men were turned away because those men feared they would be overthrown. Some women were beheaded or were forced into subservient positions to keep them out of the way, where they could no longer influence men whose egos were larger than their souls preferred.

You have spent lifetimes as men and women; as such, this is not directed to any one sex in particular but with a view to combining them as Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine, which are intended to rebalance each other when societal expectations are swept away, not to mention those within family units that pretend things are fine when they are anything but.

Some have struggled with depression because of childhood wounds that have not yet been healed. Others have moved beyond them but are still reprimanded for the slightest infraction because their mere presence upsets the structure that has been accepted, regardless of whether it is mentally, emotionally, or physically healthy.

Make your health your utmost priority this year. Do not lay claim to your wounds with a view to portraying them as excuses or reasons for not moving forward. We know doing so can be difficult. We know that being the so-called “black sheep” can be less than pleasant in certain situations.

Being closer to the fringe is ultimately beneficial from your soul’s perspective, for you are one step closer to launching yourself into a whole new system that will tend to you in ways that have not yet been experienced as consistently as you would like to become accustomed to.

Blend your light with those who are willing to see you clearly without judgment and grant them the same miracle in return. While some might not agree that this is a miracle, per se, take the lead and make certain that you have swept the rug that you are standing on and that nothing is lying underneath to cause you to trip and fall.

Some of you are convinced that the rug will be pulled out from underneath you. Why not think of it as being a magic carpet instead? You would not be the first person to imagine soaring through the Universe, well beyond worlds you have come to know.

What treasures do you seek that you believe cannot be found within?

Why not take a chance and break free from your life as you know it to be so you can create anew?

You are a supernova. Brilliant beyond measure and breathtaking to behold.

With love and gratitude for your attention this 2nd day of January 2023,

I AM Gautama Buddha

The gift of freedom

Divinity means unfolding and expressing life in new ways. Divinity means radiating peace, bliss and beauty in the world. Divinity means overcoming the limitations of nature in new ways.
Amit Ray

As storylines go, which ones speak to your need for a fresh start?

Many deep lessons have been learned over the past few years, and we know some of them have been difficult, to put it mildly.

If you have a few minutes to recalibrate, we hope you will use them to absorb some of the energies and wisdom Archangel Uriel wishes to impart.

I Am Maitreya. Blessings to you all.

✨

“And so it begins, and so shall we,” the wind whispered.

“What do you mean, ‘we’?” asked the young girl.

“All the elements work together in harmony,” was the only answer the woman heard before the Queen appeared in front of her.

“The New Year is fast approaching. ‘You’re stating the obvious,’ some might tell me, but I want you to think long and hard about what brings meaning and value to your life. Follow those first and use caution about divulging your private thoughts to those who will turn your words against you. You have learned this a few times, but the time has come for you to set a clear boundary with those who do not see you clearly and remove the barriers against those who care deeply but have yet to spring themselves free from their own self-imprisoned mentalities.”

“That’s a little deep for first thing in the morning,” the cynic said to the Queen.

“She has a point,” the young girl said. “Being an open book has left me feeling rejected and betrayed a handful of times.”

“Then I need to trust my intuition more,” admitted the woman.

“And trust people who are manipulative less,” the Crone observed as she appeared in the doorway with her bags fully packed.

“Why aren’t you staying?” the young girl inquired.

“Why are you?” she replied. “There are many more adventures that lie ahead.”

As far as brief dialogues go, who do you relate to the most? Are you the one left with all the responsibilities because you refuse to ask for help for one reason or another?

Think about those who set aside time for everyone who matters to them. If your circle is wide, this can be difficult to do. If your circle is small, you need to ask yourself how much time you allot for yourself to bring your hopes and dreams to the forefront and make them your utmost priority.

If you were to suddenly find yourself alone after years of being in a romantic partnership, how jaded would you be if someone who was honest and truthful by nature immediately stepped in to prove to you that not everyone will hurt or abandon you?

“What is the difference between honesty and truth?” some might inquire, to which we are choosing to reply with a simple question:

What do you hold as truth within?

If your fears of love are held tightly, you will not have room for those who are willing to give and receive without attachment to obligation or expectations that go against your inherent nature. The latter statement will automatically lead to what your inherent nature actually is.

While this soliloquy could turn into an intense conversation with the woman and the man she was asked to leave behind, how surprised would you be to learn that his own awakening occurred as a result of this catalyst being presented to him? That stated, what if his inherent nature is to be distrustful because of his own childhood wounds?

What would you do to help someone who refuses to give the next romantic partner a chance?

When each person’s life review occurs, potential outcomes to a specific situation are often shown.

If someone triggered you and you overreacted without thinking about the long-term consequences, how many people would keep their distance until their own fears of being seen with a few minor so-called “flaws” that were temporarily apparent have vanished?

“You are richer than you think,” some of us could tell you, which might also prompt a handful of you to think about how you define abundance.

As Mother Mary mentioned the other day, “Clarity and charity walk hand in hand.”

Who do you imagine yourself walking hand in hand with?

Who has been there for you during your own dark nights of the soul?

What if darkness exists to propel you toward the light?

Are you willing to surrender to love after all the disappointments you’ve endured? What if those events are what made you stronger all the way down to the very core of your being? Would you not accept that you are far more powerful than you ever gave yourself credit for?

“Let freedom reign within,” the Queen then said to the woman. “While you have been told this a time or two before, think about who matters in your world and nurture the relationships with people who accept you for you and do not attempt to change you into a less than empowered version of yourself. If they are triggered by your presence, give them space and time to figure out why they are afraid of their own sovereignty. Does this make sense? I know things need to be logical for you to hear this without judging yourself as being wrong for finally hitting your limit, as far as tolerating rejection and abuse are concerned.”

“Wow, you’re full of nuggets of wisdom today, aren’t you?” the cynic asked rhetorically.

“I hear you loud and clear,” the fool announced.

“As do I,” the young girl said as she looked at the woman intently.

Give yourself the gift of freedom. Your heart and soul will thank you.

With love from the archangelic realm,

I Am Archangel Uriel

The gift of renewal

Change is inevitable, but transformation is by conscious choice.
HeatherAsh Amara

Today’s message is from Maitreya. If the holiday season has been feeling a bit overwhelming, please consider taking a 2-minute break and allowing your heart to take refuge in his comforting words.

Mary Magdalene

✨

Time will be a friend to those who choose to be friends with themselves.

You needn’t look for happiness other than within.

Let the traditions that have meaning and value to you be nurtured in a way that leaves a lasting impression on your inner realm. This will be particularly helpful if you are holding onto unworthiness as truth, which is merely an illusion created by trauma or a host of disappointments that have filtered into your inner sanctum and taken refuge.

It is time to clear out the old and let the idea of experiencing new adventures begin to percolate so they can be brought to life and embraced as fully as you are able.

Do not allow the inconsistencies of others replace what your soul wishes to instill.

As Archangel Uriel recently mentioned to this scribe, “Make it your mission to hold your values to the highest standards. Let this be remembered, today and always.”

“Challenge yourself to let go of what no longer serves you” has also been mentioned from time to time. Is it a Divine message or one that you resonate with because the time has come to clear the slate?

Your body’s innate intelligence is worth paying attention to. Do not ignore its wisdom.

As masquerading is not what your soul would ever intend for you, have the courage to break down things that have been overwhelming you and make peace with the people who do not see you as clearly as you would like. Making peace could also entail accepting that their soul’s purpose has been to teach you valuable—albeit painful—lessons.

Use gratitude as fuel. A lifeboat would never be stable with those who intentionally attempt to upset it.

Do you see what we are attempting to tell you? Can you hear the intention in our words? Do you accept the logic of our transformative recommendations?

Have you tapped into your own abilities to be clairvoyant, clairaudient, and claircognizant?

Why not give yourself permission to elevate your game for your inner realm’s sake? You will be stronger for maintaining authenticity as truth, no matter how many naysayers surround you.

While many are attempting to promote “positive vibes only,” the term “spiritual bypassing” was coined for a reason.

If you want to ascend even further throughout this lifetime and the ones to come, give embracing sovereignty your utmost attention. There will always be people who will attempt to undermine others or throw them under the bus for one thing or another. Give them a wide berth and give yourself an even wider rebirth.

No matter how many storms are surrounding or within you, every day is a chance to be reborn into the soul’s light.

And so it is.

Maitreya

Ascension challenges

When we learn how to become resilient, we learn how to embrace the beautifully broad spectrum of the human experience.
Jaeda Dewalt

Maitreya asked me to tap into the Elohim at the start of this morning’s channeling session. This is one of the things they had to share: “Your ability to remain sovereign is challenged by those who continue to attempt to undermine you. Do not fall prey to their betrayal of themselves nor allow it to cause you to fall prey to your own.”

Maitreya then said, “We often draw a line between the spectrum of a person’s experience and how others have projected their own perceptions onto the growth periods both parties have been enduring. This line is not static but serves as a way to place a stop/start that is often felt within. Your inner realm will understand what this means without attempting to overanalyze it.”

Maitreya paused before continuing. “When do you come to the point where darkness and light are facing each other? If you magnify what appears to be a line between the two, you will see that they are intertwined, just as your own journey toward ascension can also be intertwined with those who believe themselves to be far more pious. This is an illusion. Growth is growth, and if a person makes what others deem to be a gross error in judgment, look at the outcome and then ask yourself if that mistake was actually a catalyst to catapult sovereignty to the forefront. This is where true change begins and self-destructiveness can make its final exit. Push beyond your self-imposed limitations. Trust that the soul’s alchemy has far reaching effects and grant others the grace that you, too, would wish to receive if you were undergoing a period of intense transformation. In the meantime, we hope Archangel Michael’s message below also serves to catapult readers into the next phase of their awakening with greater ease and clarity. And so it is.”

Namaste.

✨

Who do you admire most in the world? Is that person alive, or has he, she, or they (being pronoun sensitive) transitioned to the place where you, too, will return during what we term the time between time?

What is your favourite movie? Do you have a favourite book in lieu of a television show that once provided entertainment?

The reason for us asking these questions has much to do with the distractions you are allowing to take the place of forward movement on your own ascension journey.

Please do not mistake the need for rest as simply tied to mental or physical exhaustion. Many times it is because you feel the need to escape this mortal coil, as it was once coined and repeated many times since Hamlet was first penned.

How often do you binge watch a television program in lieu of going on a new adventure?

What is your greatest fear? Is it love? Death? Abandonment? All three seemingly rolled into one?

There is much that we can tell you about the time between time. What stories and adventures do you wish to relay once you have left your physical body behind? Is it difficult to imagine what it would be like to no longer occupy what you have become accustomed to?

As many undergo a period of intense transformation following a near death experience, so are those who received a small dose of what is termed “Divine Intervention” also impacted to a tremendous degree.

Do not forget where you came from. Let your mind imagine what this place is like and how often you visit with ascended masters (as they are often termed), not to mention those of us in the archangelic realm who foresee many shifts occurring within the Earth plane during the next decade alone.

Do not abandon yourself if you are enduring a dark period during your soul’s adventure. Many more new horizons await your exploration.

With much love,

Archangel Michael

Setting sail

I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.
Nelson Mandela

Today’s message is from Durga. For those who are not familiar with her, it is said that she eliminates suffering. Does this call to your heart? Are you willing to go the distance?

As always, we continue to watch over you on a daily basis. We hope you accept this as proof.

Mother Mary

✨

If you were to make a list of all that you are thankful for, start with recognizing that breathing is tied to Universal Life Force Energy (whether laboured or not), and trust that every single moment of your life is Divine (whether you accept that as truth or not).

Could messages from the archangels or other so-called “ascended masters” be considered evidence of their existence? What would bring you to a point of acknowledgment so that you no longer feared what would occur once this life term comes to a close and you return to the form you knew before this incarnation was planned (with the assistance of archangels and ascended masters, no less)?

As dust is an allergen to many, so is it important to steer clear of that which aggravates you to the extent that you are able. If you cleaned and dusted every day, you would still be living in an environment that is not as pristine as you might think. Does the same not hold true of the mind until it, too, is cleared of irritants that have not yet made their unique gifts known?

Some have made the misassumption that this scribe is a writer, and while she is able to string a sentence together in a way that has meaning and value, what are we to presume if none of our own words have meaning or value to readers who are seeking assistance? That stated, we are here to provide support in ways that promote the individual and collective growth of humanity. This is done at your request. After all, how many times have you asked for Divine guidance and your intuition has stepped to the forefront, clamouring for your attention?

“What does this have to do with Thanksgiving?” some Canadians might be wondering, to which we are choosing to reply with the following:

As your Divinity is held as truth to your soul, so is your heart willing to do the same in return. What are the obstacles that lie between? Are you willing to release them as Mary Magdalene and Maitreya mentioned in a recent post?

Do you understand the nature of good and evil as they are defined and generally accepted? Is doing so not an attempt to divide the soul into pieces and declaring that which is considered acceptable and that which is not? How do you divide your heart if it has been the recipient of ridicule and condemnation by those who refuse to see you clearly? Chances are you wouldn’t, but it might also take some time to relinquish attachment to self-judgment until the time comes when you are willing to listen to your heart, not the cloak it has been wearing as a means of self-protection.

How often do you pray? Have you thought of starting off with all that you consider yourself grateful for? While that is a rhetorical question for many, so is it important for us to remind those who are willing to listen that your heart cannot wear the cloak of rejection or abandonment without wanting to release it.

While it might take some time for inner archetypes to come to terms with what is needed and what is no longer wanted, so is it up to you to determine where you wish to begin recalibrating so that the freedom your heart is desiring is accepted as being far more important than anything an interloper might decide is best. Please think on this for a moment and ask your inner rebel how far it is willing to go to bring you to the helm of your sovereignty and declare it a ship that needs to sail to uncharted waters, full steam ahead.

It has been said that a ship in the harbour is safe, but that is not what ships are built for. If your soul is your safe harbour, trust that it will not abandon you as you set your sights on a new horizon.

Where are you now in your mind’s eye? Are you seeing a brief glimpse of a previous lifetime when the world seemed flat? How could your inner realm survive without cooperating with those who similarly wish to complete and not compete?

If all that you did today was express your wants and needs authentically—without editing or explaining your reasons for doing so—who would be within your circle to mirror back the areas where slight improvements are needed? Does doing so not bring you closer to your soul in ways that would not occur with those who do not challenge you to rise to the occasion so your sovereignty can become such a mainstay in your life that you no longer need to question it?

It has also been said that the Kingdom of Heaven is within. Remember that the archetype of an inner child will never be the only one who resides there. Do shadow work and make it your mission to reconcile the darkness and the light so that equanimity is not dependent on what others think or say about you, whether to your face or behind your back.

Let your intuition be your steadfast companion alongside your soul. They will always be a part of you, no matter where you stand on the spectrum between darkness and light. Your soul knows this to be broad and deep, just as a foundation of a castle must also be built with integrity in order for it to last.

Tear down the areas in need of rebuilding, and trust that your soul would not wish for you to begin by creating barriers around your heart, for those are the areas reinforced with fear that will eventually cause a fortress to crumble.

Destiny chooses those who are willing to explore. What calls to your heart? Are you willing to listen to the answer?

I Am Durga. Thank you for spending Thanksgiving Monday with me.

Be well.

Letting go

Celebrate endings—for they precede new beginnings.
Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Others will see you through their own lens of awareness. Clear up your own and let that be what matters most.

It is imperative that your self-esteem not be dependent upon the perceptions of others.

Self-growth cannot occur if you are unwilling to release what no longer serves you. Do not be afraid to let go. If that includes the weight of disappointment, trust that your heart does not desire vengeance. Your heart desires freedom. Let that be your goal and your intention during the next stage of humanity’s ever-expanding evolution.

You do not need to reach beyond your comfort zone if you do not wish to do so. That stated, look for ways to push to the edge so you can pierce the illusion of limitation, once and for all.

We will be here for you, as we have always been. We will continue to whisper thoughts to promote your expansion. Please be willing to listen. In the meantime, it is our sincere hope that this message from Maitreya inspires you to check your baggage at the door before walking through it. Do you feel the sense of freedom this offers? We hope the answer is a resounding “Yes!”

Mary Magdalene

🍁

The time has come for you to break free from the past.

While this is something a number of you have heard or read before, there is often an inner declaration made that takes time to rise up to the surface for direct expression. There is little that can be done when the eruptions begin to occur other than to observe them without judgment—or, rather, misjudgment—and simply ask this expression in whatever way it presents itself what you are still attempting to protect. It is quite likely a period of vulnerability will soon follow.

Remember that it can take a while before feelings of satisfaction in the forms of relief and gratitude begin to intermingle with other areas requiring recalibration.

How many sad songs can you listen to without crying? If a part of you is intentionally numb because you fear the flow of tears may start to drown you, trust that the satisfaction of releasing an old wound will be far more empowering than attempting to pretend you can move on without some form of resolution.

If you have a dream about a person with whom you’ve had a falling out and you’re able to express yourself honestly and authentically, even if the other person is not paying attention to your words, congratulate yourself on your courage and then forgive that person for not being able to meet you where you need to be met.

Grief is challenging for people to work through when it is already compounded to begin with. Before misjudging another for coming across as a victim or martyr, we recommend sending a thought of compassion to that person instead, for fear is a shield that they know, and their grief is likely tied to a thought form of love that became distorted over time.

“It is time to move on,” the wind whispered to the woman one day.

“We know this has been difficult for you,” Maitreya said, “but there are others who will advocate in your favour without being prompted to do so. Remember how far you’ve come and how far we would like you to go during the next decade alone. You would not be able to do that if you waste valuable life force energy trying to be something to someone who refuses to receive it without attachment to an outcome or collateral damage being forced in your direction to correct.”

He then added, “If someone has masked their own deceit by projecting their misjudgments upon you, remember that the barbs have been sharpened from the inside and their projection is also a desire for relief.”

The woman paused for a few moments to allow Maitreya’s words to nestle within.

“No one has power over your thoughts except you,” Maitreya declared. “Let that bring you comfort, especially when you are facing what might seem like insurmountable odds at first glance. No one who wanted to climb a mountain would do so without preparing for a descent. Doing so will require you to relinquish your fear of going backwards and trusting that the steps you have taken forward are already set within your repertoire of acknowledgment for safekeeping.”

“Do you need to keep your light in a jar to prove that it is there?” the fool then asked.

“Your light is your own. Do not let anyone take it from you, yet also give yourself permission to shine it without expectation or attachment to a specific outcome,” Maitreya remarked. “The soul will bring things full circle. Sometimes doing so will require you to retrace your steps so that you can create a path to rely on, especially if you can’t see far ahead until the skies begin to clear. Be patient. Be calm. Persevere. All the great explorers who made a name for themselves did so by trusting that what is on the horizon is making way for a new beginning. And so it is.”

Parting the veil

Our very survival depends on our ability to stay awake, to adjust to new ideas, to remain vigilant and to face the challenge of change.
Martin Luther King, Jr.

September 12 marks the 21^st anniversary of when Melchizedek and my paternal grandmother parted the veil and intervened, changing the entire trajectory of my life. Maitreya and El Morya are the guides I work with the most, and they stepped forward the other morning to provide the introduction to today’s post, which was transcribed on September 8.

When Sananda (a.k.a. Jesus) came through during this morning’s channeling session, he asked me to remind readers that all messages are keyed in verbatim. “It could also be said that these messages are like keys intended to unlock several doors,” he mentioned just now. “Even the ones that appear stuck at first.”

“All of our messages contain Source energy that is intended to help dislodge inner blockages so that the soul’s love can trickle down to where it is needed most. Not everyone will appreciate his sense of humour—El Morya’s, that is,” Maitreya stated. “But, as the saying goes, ‘When the student is ready, the master appears.’ The reverse could also be said to hold true.”

“Before we launch into today’s message,” El Morya said, “I would like readers to take a few deep breaths and imagine a brilliant blue light surrounding their throat chakras. As the Chohan of the Blue Ray, it is my distinct privilege to assist people in unblocking the chakra directly between the heart and third eye.”

“Many people live behind a veil of mistrust, carefully designed by those who fear the soul’s true power,” Maitreya declared. “It is not our place to shift belief systems for people, but to make them aware of the conscious changes that can be made in order to integrate this power more fully. Each and every one of the messages we have asked you to share contains just the right amount of light needed by those who are still wary of their true essence. In time, more and more people will see the benefit of embracing their sovereignty as truth. No matter what a person’s religious belief system might be, the soul understands and accepts that every road will lead to the next important milestone to be achieved. We share the soul’s joy in celebrating when these triumphs occur. And why not? You are children of the light, as Sananda pointed out in a recent message you were requested to post on Facebook.”

“Let hope spring eternal, no matter the season,” El Morya added. “It is one of the reasons why so many people ask for Divine assistance. For those readers who feel as though their quotient of hope is waning, perhaps today’s message will help to top up their tanks.”

“And so it is,” Maitreya said.

✨🌼✨

As you can see, stating “And so it is” is how we often ask this scribe to close off our transmissions. While we rely on her and other mediums to bring our messages forward, it is not a crime to learn how to channel if you wish to establish a direct conduit for your own daily purposes.

Journaling is the fastest route to building the bridge that will assist you, especially when the time comes, yet again, to relinquish your physical body and return to the state of awareness that was temporarily veiled when you agreed to cross the threshold and experience human life in order to expand upon the dreams and wishes that keep accumulating from lifetime to lifetime.

Some of those dreams and wishes have come true. Others were a disappointment that you either don’t want to admit for fear of looking like a failure in the eyes of others, or because you’re tired of complaining and you’re willing to toss aside the worn-out masks of martyrdom and victimhood, once and for all.

Done with it! Finito! Kaput! Tout fini!

There. Now that I’ve done putting a few hammers into my own little bag of tricks, so must I be mindful of where a few nails might have been dropped. Why would a few hammers be needed? Have you forgotten where you put the last one?

If you’ve ever accidentally hit your finger with a hammer, chances are you wouldn’t blame the hammer. You would be more careful.

What does this have to do with love?

“The trouble with love is,” someone might start singing and then unhappily continue with, “It leaves you when you least expect it.” This might be a truth to some people, but it needn’t be the Ultimate Truth that you carry around in your own bag of tricks.

The same holds true for the hammer.

If a hammer could be thought of as a “soul mate,” it might very well take just the right hammer to close the door to the past one final time.

A few of us like to use velvet hammers to get our points across, but that isn’t where I’m leading to.

I’m leading to the One Great Dream that might have alluded your conscious awareness until only recently. It could also come to light during your journaling. It would be a good place to try, but I don’t want to invade your free will. I want you to tap into it—not with reckless abandon, but with an affirmation tucked into your back pocket.

If an affirmation could be considered a nail, you need to decide how much force and effort you want to put into feeling safe expressing it without getting destroyed by another hammer.

Does it really matter if someone disappointed you, just as long as you stop disappointing yourself?

Sorry … that might have been a bit of a velvet hammer. I’d say, “My bad,” but that would imply a bit of sarcasm instead of wit, the latter of which is a close cousin to rage, which might be lurking beneath the surface, waiting to be transformed into something useful. Like enthusiasm. Or unbridled joy. Or … here! You fill in the blank:

Relinquishing darkness will bring me _____________________.

What was the first word that came to mind?

What if it brought you freedom? Would you take a chance and add some light to the places that need it the most?

I’ll sit here and wait. Kidding! I have things to do, mediums to chat with, dreams—like seeds—to plant into people’s subconscious so they can actively filter a few wishes and dreams, add the tiniest smidge of chutzpah, and let the wind guide them to their next intended destinations. Oh, they’ll definitely know when they’ve arrived. Synchronicity will reveal its face and they—or perhaps you—will start to notice all the signs that your respective souls know will not escape your very own cone of vision. Please seek to expand it. At the risk of sounding cliché, one’s comfort zone generally isn’t all that comfortable and it’s worth leaping beyond it, not just looking.

Carry on. Or perhaps not. Looked at another way, letting boulders go will automatically begin to instill a sense of boldness, will it not?

Are you willing to confront what has failed you, rather than wear a cloak of disappointment?

What can we do to help?

Challenge yourself to keep vigil with your soul’s light as your constant companion. Change will always be around the corner, waiting for you to bump directly into it or vice versa.

Be willing to change course so that you’re being the most authentic, exuberant version of yourself. Doing so is bliss in the making.

With love and my undying enthusiasm for integrating my own way of thinking and communicating with societies that often exclaim and proclaim, “Word!” which magically starts to open the door to what is held as “Truth.” It is our hope that you will grant yourself the gift of freedom and bear witness to both.

And so it is.

E.M.

Signs and symbols

You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the ocean in a drop.
Rumi

“Who’s there?” the young girl inquired.

“I never said ‘knock, knock,’” the fool answered.

“I didn’t hear anyone at the door either,” the cynic said, and the fool started to laugh.

“You do know the soul is often silent,” remarked the fool.

“Of course I do, but I also pay attention to signs and symbols, because they appear when I least expect them to.”

“Just like Andromeda and those within her realm,” Maitreya declared. “While we might seem silent, we do our best to guide you in ways that are difficult to measure. Do not hesitate to shift directions if you are intuitively drawn to do so. It might be just the change you need.”

“And so it is,” the woman said.

✨

I often come forward as an individual representative of our realm, and although many might find it difficult to imagine communicating with one light being—not to mention a handful at a time—many of you have become accustomed to the words of “Abraham” and others like them over the last two decades alone.

We are beyond age and time as you know them to be. Some of you may intuitively view us utilizing your third eyes, while others sense a distinct frequency that is difficult to put into words. Some of you might even converse with us directly on your own. Whatever your state of awareness is, trust that in the space of “time” that it takes to read the message from our realm below, your heartbeat is already aligning with a rhythm that can synchronize with our energies without discomfort.

If you feel a mild sense of unease with the concept of interacting with someone who does not occupy a physical body, utilize your imagination to align with any ascended master of your choosing who, while no longer “alive” as you customarily define the term, can easily provide you with the guidance you need to ascend beyond the state of awareness that is as temporary as the clouds that intermingle with the aurora borealis. You may even wish to consider this beautiful spectacle as Gaia’s way of expressing the interchangeability of her dynamic state of being for far more centuries than civilization has depended upon her resources. Let Her be befriended, for you are companions along your soul’s adventures, both individually and collectively as a human family.

“Be all that you can be” is a slogan that many have heard or repeated over the course of their lives, especially in the United States. What motivates you to embrace self-mastery as you know it to be? Perhaps our words will assist you in this regard.

Until our next reunion,

I Am Andromeda

✨

If you were to draw a circle in the middle of a page, and then continue to draw overlapping concentric circles, you would be practicing the art of Sacred Geometry without even knowing that’s what you were doing. Were you to self-study this amazing phenomenon, you would begin to understand the various intricacies that make each petal and each flower small miracles, in and of themselves, just as each of you are miracles, without exception.

Please sit with this for a moment and breathe in the words, “I Am a miracle,” while envisioning a bright colour of your intuitive choosing surrounding your sacred vessel.

“You are not without flaws,” someone who is insecure might choose to project upon you, and it is well within your rights to accept or reject this inconsequential observation, noting the areas where you automatically know occasional improvements could be made until you were willing and completely able to release an old paradigm in favour of a new one.

“Do you understand the mystical realms?” someone who is experienced in self-mastery and expansion might prod you to answer, hoping for another willing partner to explore your universe and begin to consider the myriad of shapes and sizes of known galaxies that are but a thought away, in spite of being millions of light years from where you currently reside.

Some scientists will argue that travelling faster than the speed of light is so-called “impossible,” yet you are doing just that if and when you imagine standing beside us in a sacred sanctuary that invites many elevated light beings to commune with you without fear of attack or condemnation.

You are sacred beings, far wiser and more gifted than what many have begun to explore.

Do not fear stepping into the bubble of light that you created, which will require you to separate yourself mentally so you can envision another aspect of you mirroring your sacred self. Where do you see the strongest connections in your chakra system? “Is there Heaven on Earth?” you might suddenly wonder, and the answer to that question will depend entirely upon how openminded you are willing to be.

As summer holidays are drawing to a close in the northern hemisphere throughout the continent of North America alone, think of the many seasons you have endured in a less than enlightened state, from your soul’s perspective. Does this cause you discomfort or are you willing to bridge the gap and not gap the bridge? While grammatically less than eloquent, trust that even El Morya knows it is difficult to transcend insecurity if you are feeling put down in any way, shape, or form.

Imagine alternate realities and ask your soul to invite corresponding energies to begin to nestle into your physical body, reconciling the imbalances you have carried with you from lifetime to lifetime, so that from this point onward you can expand and contract using your own free will and not be at the mercy of those who care little for your general wellbeing, not to mention the greater aspects of yourself that you have yet to explore.

Be willing to step beyond the confines of your awareness of yourself. Opportunities for expansion are only a thought away, just as your soul’s bliss is available to you the instant you wish to experience it.

We are the Andromedans. Thank you for spending a few minutes of “time” with us today.
