A Watershed Year

Many of you, like me, are hearing dire predictions from well intentioned individuals, news services, friends and others about 2009. I feel differently however. I feel 2009 will be a watershed year in the sense that there will be a great many wonderful things that happen.

I believe many of these things will happen inside of us - spiritual things allowing us to awaken to our natural abilities which I've been speaking about on these blogs for some time and also there are other aspects that cause me to have a more positive outlook for 2009. Some of these you might note in the material I've put out from Grandfather on my You Tube site of predictions for 2009 but something happened yesterday which caused me to feel that I am not alone in this belief that 2009 may be a good year - and of course I know many of you believe this as well.

I had a talk with my old friend A.H. We have these chats at various times of the year and usually we have one around the new years time. She is an astrologer and she has informed me that there are many very good aspects supporting this year and that's good to hear. She does not go into these details of the aspects because she knows that I need to stay focused on my own material but briefly mentioned something about Jupiter and I'm sure you can look this up or consult your favorite astrologer.

I have also heard that numerologists feel that this is an 11 year which has to do with spiritual mastery and is also a very good sign.

So I'm feeling very good about this year and I felt that since there were so many voices on TV, in the newspapers and us when we get worried and upset that suggest that 2009 is going to be a year of struggle that I feel differently. I feel 2009 will be a year that we will all recognize either during this year or looking back on it as that watershed year that changed the way we feel about ourselves and each other and as a result life took a turn for the better globally.

I am hopeful that you will discover that this is the case for this coming year. Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Our Own Value

Have you ever considered that in order to live our lives on Earth we must actually perform many many tasks for others. Even when we are inside mother we are performing a degree of fulfillment for mother and father and perhaps other family. All throughout our lives we continue to fulfill either expectations or needs of others.

Now needless to say others do this for us as well. However I'm bring this up because at this time of year many of you question your own value. I'm not saying that this doesn't come up as an issue at other times but at this time of year when we are very sensitive to things we have and things we don't have it's very typical to question our own value.

I'd like to say right now that aside from doing what you can to be kind and benevolent with others it's important to remember that we are all united at a deep level and very often we are doing something for someone else that we don't even know about.

So...I'll have more to say about these things in time but I'm just mentioning this now so that you can consider something - a little homework, not complicated.

I'd like you to write down a list. It might take you a day or a week to just notice okay...you can make notes, it doesn't have to be formal - I'm not going to come around and check your papers :-) Write down a list of something you felt you might have done for somebody that day. Something good.

Don't write down things like - I told him off or I put her in her place - not that. Write down things that you feel you might have done for somebody - you open a door for somebody - you don't often think about that or you help somebody carry something and then you forgot about it.

The reason I want you to do this is to remind yourself that you do good things for people.

Alright, that's all for now. Goodlife.

Helping To Resolve Regret

Someone has asked a question: what to do about that vague feeling of regret that you might have. Perhaps you have a quick image and then it's gone and you can't quite remember it.

This is possible because sometimes we imagine that what we regret is worse than it was in its impact on others. Other times we downplay its impact on others and still other times it is only a feeling because we are unable to tap into the pictures or anything else that reminds us of why we have this feeling.

I want to give you something you can do today about that. It is gentle and not demanding but it may be of some comfort.

First, this is something that can be done at night or day - it doesn't make any difference. If it is daytime then try to look towards the sun in the sky, always closing your eyes so that it is safe.

If it is nighttime then look towards the moon in the sky - and you can glance at the moon of course with your eyes open - but regardless of what time of day it is also connect to either the sun or the moon so that you connect to both of them you understand?

And thus you can ask - after you make that connection to the sun and the moon - ask for all the most benevolent energies to be all around and about you to support you that are available for you in that moment. Then pause with your eyes closed trying to picture nothing else than the sun and the moon.

Then say the following words, "I am asking that all I regret in thought and feeling be resolved now in the safest and most benevolent way for all beings and that as that resolution takes place benevolently that these feelings and thoughts fade from my mind and body so I can be reassured that all is well."

That's what I recommend. Goodlife.

My New Christmas Story

Greetings. Just a note to let you know that my new Christmas story is up on my Nice Little Stories blog.

I get asked every year when my new Christmas story will be ready and so I've taken to putting up this notice. I hope you enjoy it.

Goodlife to you all.

Contributing

Have you ever wanted to be able to help in a situation but there was just no way you could do so directly. There's any number of reasons why this might be the case but simply put - if such a situation does develop then this is what to do.

First ask that all the most benevolent energies available for you be all around and about you and then wait. Then if you can, also ask that the most benevolent energy of the sun and the moon also be with you and wait. Some of you might feel some energy during this time but if you don't just wait for about a half a minute or so but don't look at your watch or clock.

After that simply say, "I am asking that..." (then you list the names of the people or as briefly as possible the circumstance - if you don't know the names of the people then just list the circumstance or possibly even a news event) "...receive all the help, love and support they need now from all those beings who can help them in the most benevolent way for them."

Wait because there might be energy that comes through and always remember if at any time when you're going to begin - even before you say a word you feel a lot of energy just wait for that energy to pass. It's probably acting on this living prayer you will be saying and if it comes up during the time you say the words - again wait till it fades and then you can continue to the end.

After that there's another important thing to do and that's just let it go. If there is no way you can help directly you see, this is what you have done. This is what you can do. Let it go and go on with your life. That's just as important because it allows you to have your life and you've still contributed the best you have to offer to the situation. Goodlife.

More On Supporting Benevolent Change

This is a time now when you have the opportunity to incorporate all that you've learned here on these blogs and things you've learned other places and be able to create a movement within your self of your true desires that would be beneficial for all beings.

This is what I recommend. Find someplace out on the land. This is not exactly True Magic but is a blending of other things and when you find that place on the land* create a space for yourself on it and stand there.

Then begin to think and picture of all the changes the world would be in were your most benevolent desires for it fulfilled. Hold those pictures and those thoughts only. Try to focus only on that.

Then while you are standing in any direction that you choose to face to begin with, put your right arm straight down at your side with your palm facing the side of your body and take your left arm and bring it across your chest so that it is horizontal with your chest and turn your left wrist so that your palm is facing outward.

Take a deep breath and hold on to those thoughts and pictures and slowly turn to the left in that position as you move your palm forward in order to make 1 complete rotation slowly blow out that breath. After you've made the complete rotation stop and breathe naturally, take 3 sidesteps to the left and make a one quarter rotation to the left and then take 6 sidesteps to the left and go on with your life.

This is a modified form of True Magic that incorporates motion, breath and illustration within your mind and heart, you see, when you're picturing these things that you feel would be good for all beings to help to create a more benevolent world and a more benevolent society.

That's what I recommend you try. Try to do it some time before the end of the year. Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*It's important to care about that which you are performing. This way you do not have any inner conflicts or feelings in conflict in your body with that which you are attempting to do. This could not only cause you to feel uncomfortable but it would generally impact the best outcome of that which you are about to do.

This is what I recommend. Go outside if you can and as always try not to wear shoes that are insulating you - keeping your energy, you understand, from moving into the ground. If you need to wear shoes try to wear something that is made of a natural fiber - even leather, that's fine but not plastic or rubber - not an insulating material.

Then go out on the land someplace. And remember - always to go someplace where you feel safe including your own backyard if that is a place to feel safe but if you go out in the country or someplace else always do these things someplace where you have permission - that's important - so that you can feel safe and so that those who may have some claim to the land upon which you are standing will be comfortable with your presence.

It is good to do this in a place where there is no conflict - outer or inner. This way it is more likely to work in the most benevolent way. You can of course wear insulating shoes to get there if you have to drive there or have to go in a vehicle of some sort but once you get there put on non-insulating shoes or go barefoot if you feel comfortable there and then stand out on the land.

More On Creating Ease

In your lifetime you will find that a great many things will change. Sometimes these changes are welcome. Other times the changes are not so welcome.

I'm sure you know what I mean in both cases but there are other times when the changes that occur are uncertain. At moments you think that this could be a good thing and then at other moments you're not so sure.

I want to give you something brief today that you can use to temper that - meaning to moderate the impact of it so that while it may not be spectacularly good it won't be so terrible either. That's what I mean by tempering it. You will have to be specific so I will leave a gap in this Living Prayer.

If something comes up like that and you're not sure and it might take time to find out whether it's a good thing or a not so good thing then this is what I recommend.

Relax into that benevolent energy or ask for it to be all around and about you. Pause for a moment and then say, "I am asking that these..." (changes or circumstances that I'm going through right now - be specific but use as few words as possible) "...be accommodated into my life now in the most smooth and easy and benevolent way for me resulting in the most benevolent outcome for me."

Now if it's some kind of change that's going on for others you may or may not be able to have an influence but you can try. Do the same thing but change the words that refer to the specific situation and say, "I am asking that all those people or beings who are going through..." (state clearly with as few words as possible what they're going through) "...be able to move through this time of change in the most benevolent way for them resulting in the most benevolent outcome."

I know I've touched on these things before but I felt that given the swirling change moving around our planet and the move towards a greater homogenization of businesses, corporate lives and yes even countries that this might come to be a comfort for you as something else you can do to create as much ease as possible. Goodlife.

Inertia?

Have you noticed the inertia? I have. It's hard isn't it. It feels like - oh there's so much to do but it's so hard to do it and when you make the effort to do at least some of what you have to do, it's so tiring - like you're working uphill.

It will pass. This has happened before and it almost always takes place during a time when we are unconsciously involved in assisting people, places and things all over the world. We hear about some things going on here and there in this part of the world, in that part of the world and we are of course concerned and those of you who have been reading these blogs for a time might be saying living prayers or even benevolent magic or doing other things to help more directly if you can.

And yet it will pass. When these times of inertia happen it is almost always, not every time but almost always associated with our souls and spirits combining together in a greater sense than usual to support and sustain something somewhere involving people and others. It's happened many times and it will pass.

So...a living prayer you can say if you like to support in general. You might say, "I am asking that all those people, places and things that I have been supporting whether I am aware of it or not all receive now the most benevolent help, support and love that is available for them from all those beings who can provide that help, love and support. I am also asking that the sun, the moon, the stars and all beings everywhere help us and support us through these times towards a better life for all beings."

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Living Prayer for Transitions

Recently a regular reader of this blog mentioned that he was going through a transition that was particularly strenuous in some ways for him. I'd like to share some of my response to him for you here since you yourself may be experiencing such a transition or shift or change in your life.

Even without such intensity of experience I do recommend that if you are passing through such a time - especially now when the world around us is changing, perhaps in some ways for the better eh, and things are moving and may not be what they have been - then you could if you wished consider the following living prayer as something that might be a comfort.
----------------------------------------------------------

...I recommend you ask for the most benevolent energies available for you now to be all around and about you and then pause. After that I recommend you say, "I am asking that I be able in the most benevolent way for me to move through this time of transition in a way that is benevolent for all beings and that the result of this transition I am passing through result in the most benevolent outcome for me."

This is what I recommend you say now. You only need to say it once so pick your moment and say it when things are as calm and quiet as possible and you can relax into the good feeling that will follow. Goodlife.

A Special Clearing For Halloween

For those of you out there who feel a little bit overwhelmed by Halloween and some of the energies that circulate around that holiday time I'd like to suggest a clearing. I have put types of clearing up here before but this one's a little different.

It is something that you can do that engages with the sky and with the moon. It's not exactly a true magic but it's a form of purification that can be done quickly if needed. I do recommend that it is done however during the daytime ideally when it's clear and the sun is out but if it's cloudy and even rainy you can do it but please do it during the day for the best effect.

I recommend you go out and stand on the land someplace, not on pavement, and preferably without rubber soled shoes or plastic soled shoes. You can use leather soled shoes if you like. Then standing on the land look up towards where the sun would be but close your eyes alright, and glance in that direction. If it's very cloudy you can glance in the direction with your eyes partly open if you choose.

Then close your eyes and look down at the ground and picture the moon, even though the moon would not likely be out you can picture it in your imagination, and then while imagining the moon take a deep breath and blow firmly towards the ground where you are picturing the moon.

Make sure that when you blow you miss your feet and that your breath is not aimed towards anything but the ground and definitely not towards other people or animals. This is only to be done in this fashion if you are able to imagine the moon in your minds eye.

If you are unable to imagine the moon, as some people have a hard time picturing, then you can blow firmly towards the sun with your eyes closed.

This will help to clear some of those energies that are uncomfortable that may be associated with excesses or disagreeable energies from Halloween. Goodlife.

True Magic To Support The Sustenance Of All Beings

I know a great many of you are worried about the economy globally, however I feel that things will smooth out sooner than people expect. It is not my job to be the economist here nor do I claim to be one - I know you don't come here for that. I do recommend however that you consider the following true magic. It is meant to support and sustain but also meant to generate.

You'd be surprised how much magic is involved in maintaining, balancing and sustaining this planet as well as other planets. I'm not talking about slight of hand or "pulling a rabbit out of a hat." I'm talking about something that is real - not "pie in the sky,"...real. It's not my job to convince you, I - know - this - works.

This is what I recommend for now. Find that special place that works for you out on the land.* When you get there this is what to do. When you're standing on your spot face the north, then after about 20 seconds turn and face the west, then again after about 20 seconds (just your best guess) face the south and then after that time face the east - pause 20 seconds and then back to the north.

Then I'd like you to, if it's daytime, close your eyes and look to the sky where the sun is. If it's cloudy and overcast you can keep your eyes open but look generally where the sun may be. Then open your eyes and look down towards the ground in front of your feet. Then turn around a half a turn so you are facing the south. Again glance towards the sky using the same precautions if it's very bright out. Again glance towards the ground. Then turn towards the east and do the same thing again. Then towards the west and do the same thing again. Finish up - turn towards the north.

Then with your arms down at your sides, raise your arms slowly so that you end up having them out in front of you with both your palms up and say the following words. "I am asking that the Sun, the Earth, the directions and all beings support now the most benevolent life, love and sustenance for all beings on this planet forevermore."

Remain in that position for about a minute, just your best guess - what you feel is about a minute. Then return your arms to your sides with your palms facing your legs.

After that take 6 sidesteps to your left. You can look at the ground and make sure you're stepping someplace safe. Then make a quarter of a turn to your left and take 6 more sidesteps to the left. After you do that you can turn - try to turn towards the left even if you have to go right, you might have to make a partial rotation to do that, and go on with your life.

This request is a special prayer blessing as well to encourage the best from all beings and the best that can be given from all beings. This is what I recommend.

Know that the true magic I'm putting out here on this blog and on A Mystical Man's World and occasionally on Explorer Race is designed to train you for more advanced work but this is pretty advanced in its own right. I will give more as long as I am able. Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Know that as a general rule of thumb, as people say, it's important to care about that which you are performing true magic for. This way you do not have any inner conflicts or feelings in conflict in your body with that which you are attempting to do. This could not only cause you to feel uncomfortable but it would generally impact the true magic so much that it may not do any good.

This is what I recommend. Go outside if you can and as always try not to wear shoes that are insulating you - keeping your energy, you understand, from moving into the ground. If you need to wear shoes try to wear something that is made of a natural fiber - even leather, that's fine but not plastic or rubber - not an insulating material.

Then go out on the land someplace. And remember - always to go someplace where you feel safe including your own backyard if that is a place to feel safe but if you go out in the country or someplace else always do these things someplace where you have permission - that's important - so that you can feel safe and so that those who may have some claim to the land upon which you are standing will be comfortable with your presence.

It's always good to do true magic in a place where there is no conflict - outer or inner. This way it is more likely to work in the most benevolent way. You can of course wear insulating shoes to get there if you have to drive there or have to go in a vehicle of some sort but once you get there put on non-insulating shoes or go barefoot if you feel comfortable there and then stand out on the land.

Seeing Angels And Guides

Do you know that on our planet angels and guides will take forms that are comfortable to those who, on occasion here, perceive them. You might see someone who looks human but there is a great deal of white and gold light emanating from them almost like they're in a cloud of such light and it seemed to be flowing off of them but they do appear to be in human appearance.

Their actual appearance might simply be as a portion of light but when accommodating the needs of our fellow human beings on this planet they will be seen in the form in which we feel the most comfortable.

On other planets a similar situation occurs when an angel or a guide is needed - it's different you see when they're needed as compared to when they simply visit. When they're needed there's some urgency isn't there. Comforting, help with a transition and so on and then of course they take the form of what the beings look like there on that planet...but there is more.

We are not the only beings on this planet and I have been taught and I believe from my experience that we are all on this planet - all beings - ensouled by Creator which of course one would expect since one cannot imagine eh Creator creating anything that is not a portion of itself...therefore it is ensouled.

When other beings, other than humans, need or require the help of an angel or a guide of course the angel or guide will appear in the form of that being.

So if you should happen - out of the corner of your eye perhaps or more directly - happen to see even a beloved pet, perhaps not you own - maybe someone else's, passing over you will often see a light and light effects and if you are very fortunate you may just see angels and guides of light that look very much like the being who is passing over.

There are certain individuals who, because of the nature of their work or because of who they are, might see these things on a regular basis but nowadays I believe that we will all have the opportunity to see these things. Not because there's going to be so many deaths - not that but rather because our abilities to perceive are becoming stronger and more integrated with our daily lives.

So if you do see these loving light beings who almost always seem to be glowing with light coming off of them that is white and gold and occasionally even a little pink or a little light green then you will know that your abilities, which you naturally have off of this planet in other lives and in other forms, are integrating with you now to remind you that everywhere you go there is love, there is life, angels, guides and beloved teachers.

We, I believe, are being reminded of this continuity more and more these days. Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

A Request For Inner Calm And Strength

I know some of you are not feeling safe and secure so here's a short living prayer you can say to support your sense of personal security and inner calm especially.

You know...at times when the world changes, even what simply human beings do and how they do it, it can often feel very unsettled. I can understand this too.

So if you wish - you could first ask for all the most benevolent energies, angels and beings to be all around and about you in the most benevolent way for you. Remember to say this out loud and if there are others nearby you can whisper it if you like but it must be made physically since these requests are about ultimately - our physical experience in our physical world.

After you pause for a moment and perhaps even feel something that feels benevolent or a tingling perhaps then I recommend you say the following living prayer. "I am asking that I have the strength, calm and energy within my heart and body to feel safe and stable during these times of changes of perception and actions by the populations on Earth and that these shifts I am requesting within me will result in the most benevolent outcome for me."

Goodlife.

Lend A Hand Where You Can

Now I know you're all concerned about financial matters. Perhaps your concern is based on a personal situation but since I know a great many of you are compassionate it may also be based upon a broader situation - perhaps the global circumstances.

There are circumstances yes but there are solutions in progress not only by governments and business but by individuals. Still I know you don't come here for that so this is what I have to offer.

For those of you who do true magic and for those of you who have not really felt like you were ready for that but would like to try I'm going to offer some simple true magic today. It does involve standing up. It would be best to do this outdoors but if for any reason you need to do it indoors then simply find a place that is open enough so you are unlikely to bump into anything.

First ask for all those energies that are available for you in the most benevolent way and in ways that will enlighten and support to be all around and about you. Then wait for a moment or two.

Then stand and face the north. Make 1 slow complete rotation and finish up standing facing the north. Raise your arms up, straight up, so that your palms are facing up. Then relax your arms and lower them back down so they are by your sides.

Then say the following. I recommend you say, "I am asking that all those means available for all people and all beings work to support each others needs now in the most benevolent way and I also ask the Sun, the Moon and Earth to co-operate in this in the most benevolent way."

Then look down at your feet on the ground (if you're outside - or if you're inside just look down at your feet). Then look straight ahead.

Then make 1 more slow rotation to the left and stop while you are facing north. Then take 3 steps to the left, sidesteps you understand. Then turn left again and take 5 sidesteps. Then you may go on with your life.

You can see why this is best to be done outdoors so if you have a place to do it outdoors that you will not be disturbed that's the best way. You can if you like bring a friend to keep all well and safe and if you prefer you can do this at night but if you do make sure you bring a light so you can see where you're going.

So that's a more simple true magic you can try if you like to do what you can spiritually for the world situation. You notice in the words I did not actually mention money because money is a medium of exchange but as you know it is not necessarily the most direct medium of exchange. Barter precedes it but even before that people just did things for each other.

So do what you can in the most benevolent way, I have faith in you. Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Balance For Mother Earth Leads To Balance For Us, Part 2

How to encourage all peoples to move past such disparity as I referred to in my last post.

It's not about the people with more having less though it looks like that on the surface. Rather it is about the people with less having more and you might reasonably ask how is that possible.

There is only so much to have - and yet I beg to differ. There is so much more to have. Not to grab, to hold and to bind to you but rather to encourage, to welcome and to embrace heartily with all beings.

A second living prayer is called for and then there will be more. I recommend you say, "I am asking that I have the strength and courage now to receive all those things, all those friends, all those capacities I need now to generate and create the most benevolent outcome for all beings."

It's important to say that, first of course always asking for the most benevolent energies to be all around and about you - as always, because in order to have what you may be missing in your life - though you may be confusing who and what it is that you want - to replace that gap of what it is that's missing - in order to do that you will need to be open to receiving that which is available very specifically for you as an individual as well as for all yous as a group on this planet.

We must learn how to welcome, not just welcome to friends and family for we must learn how to feel welcome, how to know when we feel welcome as compared to when we simply feel shy when we are exposed to this or that situation and how to offer true welcome.

I recommend you begin in this way. Find something, or someone in the case of a beloved pet only - dog or cat - something like that - a horse perhaps, that you love very much and that you are reminded of by their reactions to you that they love you.

For those of you who do not have a pet perhaps you have a favorite tree or even a place where you like to go. If it is a place where there are no other peoples then you can use that.

If it is a feeling that you always welcome - not because it is of revenge for that always harms yourself as well as others - but if it is a feeling that is comfortable, happy, safe, calm or benevolent or all of those that's alright too.

Interact with that by going there or being with that in any way you can safely and tell it that you love it if it is a feeling, if it is a place.

If it is a pet then you can say their name. Most likely if you say it and feel it at the same time - it's not enough just to say it. Regardless of what you've been told, the mind is not the ruler of the planet nor is it the supreme being. Feel it first, that love. Then say it, and after you do that - you can whisper if you need to - after you do that feel it more for that love is the path to welcome. After you're feeling that love for a time, a minute or less is fine, then ask to feel welcome with that love. This will help you to prepare to welcome that which you may need to continue this process.

In time I will say more about these things but I'm bringing these reminders to your attention because in troubled times such as these we might react first out of fear rather than use what we know. Practice these things so that you will immediately automatically use what you know rather than adding to the fear energy.

I know you can help and many of you are. I am here just to remind you - no more than that.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Balance For Mother Earth Leads To Balance For Us, Part 1

Mother Earth has tension in her these days - you know this. Earthquakes, other expressions of her personality are happening. For the most part these earthquakes are small but there are the big ones, the destructive ones. What can we do directly about that. I want to make a suggestion that you might attempt to do.

Do you know one of the reasons Mother Earth gets tense is because of the disparity between people - and by that I mean that some people are in great comfort and other people are struggling or even suffering.

I am not saying that this or that politic should be followed. I am not saying that some people are to blame - none of that. Lets rather take a different approach. Lets see how we can help Mother Earth to be more relaxed while at the same time we may be able to do something towards supporting our fellow beings.

To begin with lets do a living prayer by asking first that all of those energies that are most benevolent for you to be all round and about you so that you can relax and that your living prayer can do the most good. Wait a minute or so after that - a little less is alright.

Some of you will feel that energy and for others you might just get a tingling or some such thing.

Then I recommend you say the following. You might say, "I am asking that all those inequities between people that cause us to be out of balance or discomforted with each other now move towards a greater sense of balance in the most benevolent way for all beings."

Now you noticed that I didn't actually say anything in the living prayer, that I recommend you say, about Mother Earth directly but what was said at the end was "...for all beings." Mother Earth is a being - you know this.

So that's what I recommend you do to start with. Of course you will be working to improve the conditions of all beings to the best of your ability - I know many of you do that but this is something you can also do for I feel that the energy and the co-operation of all beings at the soul level is much more enhanced these days. I'll try to say more about that particular aspect as time goes on.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Gently Moving Past Inertia, Part 2

Last time I talked about something that Patrice had asked. This time I want to give a little true magic to help to bring this about a little better.

First go out to someplace on the land if you possibly can. If you live in a city where there isn't much land see if you can go to a park.

Try to find a place where no one is within 10 feet of you if it is a busy crowded city. If it is not so busy then try to have people further away. You may not always be able to accomplish that. You could if you like bring a friend and ask the friend to stand 30 or 40 or better yet 50 feet away from you even if you're out on the land someplace and that's not a park to help to keep people away from you - not forcefully, just gently.

Someone might ask, "What is that person doing?" They can make up a little story that's innocent. It's not always good to say, "They're doing magic." That will just make the person more curious eh. It can be simply that - they are doing a form of prayer - because true magic really is a form of prayer but it's active prayer where you help to bring about what it is that you are requesting and you enlist the aid of others - not only souls as we do in the case of living prayer as mentioned last time - meaning the souls of all beings, everything is alive and it's all ensouled but also you can enlist the aid as I've done before with true magic of the sun, the moon, the stars, other planets for these "beings" all function as a portion of the natural world and they know you - your soul, your very essence as its natural self and they will work with that natural self to help bring about in the most benevolent way possible the results you are requesting.

So this is what to do when you get out to that land. If it's private land make sure you have permission. If it's possible take off your shoes or wear shoes that do not have artificial soles. If they have leather soles that's fine but that's important.

If it's possible to do this without shoes on that's even better. It makes a physical contact with you and the Earth. If it's not safe to do that then some kind of soles that are of natural material would be good for your shoes.

Orient yourself towards the north to start and find a place on the land where you feel physically comfortable. The more relaxed and comfortable you are the more likely this will work but do the best you can there.

After you have oriented yourself towards the north look up into the sky. If it is daytime glance, with your eyes closed, in the general direction or where the sun is. If it is a cloudy day and the sun is covered by clouds of course you can have your eyes open if you wish.

If it is the nighttime then you may glance to where the moon is with your eyes open of course. It's up to you whether you wish to do this at day or night - I recommend the day but if you need to do it at night that's alright too. It will work either way.

Then raise your arms up so that they are in front of you - meaning bring your arms out in front of you so they are straight in front of you and then move your hands together with your palms touching and your fingers touching together (see above).

Then raise your arms, with your palms touching like that if you can, over your head and while they are raised like that make one complete rotation so that you turn around and are then facing the north again.

After you have done that you may bring your arms down slowly - separating them above your head, bringing them down very slowly along your sides with your arms stretched out straight away from each side and finishing up with your arms straight down by both sides and your palms touching the sides of your body.

Then say these words, "I am asking that the sun, the moon and all the friendly stars who know me in my true natural self help to bring about a co-ordination now with my natural being and Earth's personality's natural being to co-operate and support my need for..." (then you mention with 1 word only that which you need as referred to last time in the last post - it must be only one word so you will have to be creative perhaps) "...in the most benevolent way for me and for all beings."

Then wait. Stay in that position if you can for about a half a minute or a minute - don't check your watch, just make your best guess.

Then make 1 step forward towards the north - and you understand all this time your arms are at your sides, your palms touching your sides straight down - make another complete rotation to the left finishing up facing towards the north as you have been. Then remain in that position for at least a couple of minutes. If it's a little longer that's okay. Try to make it at least a couple of minutes - meaning 2. Try not to think about anything.

If there are man-made objects in the distance, look towards the sky because man-made objects always contain the energy of those who built them to say nothing of those who may touch them or come in contact with them - this is good to remember in general when doing these things.

Then after you have waited that time look down towards the ground and see your feet on the ground. Try not to think. Then as you look down towards the ground you may look slightly to your left towards the ground and take 3 steps to the left.

Remember - do not turn and take three steps forward to the left. Remain in your position and take 3 steps, as you might say - side steps, to the left. You can look towards the ground.

If it is nighttime make sure that there is some form of illumination nearby so that you are safe where you are stepping.

Remain there facing towards the north for another minute or two - it's up to you but at least a minute. Then take another 3 steps, side steps again, to the left.

Then you may turn, always turning to the left, towards the direction where you need to go but don't take that exact direction. Walk straight to where you need to go in a way that curves around the land you were on - meaning if you need to go in that direction give a wide berth to the land you were standing on.

Don't worry about it if any animals or dogs or cats in the area or any other kind of animals happen to fly through that area or walk through that area - that's fine - they're natural beings - nothing to worry about there but wait in the general area for about 5 minutes to try to keep other human beings from walking in that area.

It will not disturb the magic that you have requested but it might cause them to get slightly dizzy - not so that they would fall down, not so that they would stumble into a tree or anything but they might lose their way a bit - forget something. Maybe they were going to the store for a quart of milk - they could forget something. They'll go to the store, they'll get other things, they'll forget the quart of milk - it's the energy you see.

The energy is focused on creating what you have requested. So try to keep people away for 5 minutes. That's a good thing to remember for the future though I will not always say this. It's a good thing to remember in case you get the feeling to do that.

Remember, don't be forceful about it. Say that - if someone comes up you can say, "Would you mind walking around me and this space for a moment. It has to do with a prayer I just said." And usually people will do that. If they brush you off and walk through the space then you've done what you can.

Most likely this will not come up but it's advice that I suggest to you so you can keep in mind that one attempts to honor all beings. You never know what soul will be helping you to bring about what you have requested. Very often they are people you don't know and have never met and occasionally it will involve people that you do know.

Remember - after you do these things, these true magic's, don't go around talking about it. You can talk about true magic in general if you feel like it but don't go around talking about what you have requested. It will tend to dilute the potential of it happening - something good for you knowing.

That's why people who do magic like this are often considered to be secretive. It's not that they're trying to prevent people from knowing how to do the true magic but rather they are trying to maximize the impact of the benevolent things they are asking for - you see. That is often a very reasonable explanation for things that seem to be mysterious.

After that 5 minutes or so you can continue on with your life and do what you wish. Try to - when you do true magic any day - try to do things that are comfortable, pleasant.

Go out to eat with friends, take your dog for a walk, something like that. It's not a good time to be watching scary movies or things like that because you will find that you are actually feeling very open and almost a little vulnerable. That will pass within 24 hours but it's something to keep in mind.

If you have a job that is intense or even, how can we say, demanding then try to do such a thing as this on a weekend or at a time when you know you'll have the next day off. That's what I suggest.

I wish you well in this endeavor and remember - this is not something you can do only once for something that you need. I am suggesting you do it once for the thing that you need that I have expanded on and discussed in the last post and this post to a degree but it is also something that can be easily adapted to requesting something for the general public or for all peoples or for all beings.

Use your imagination for that. Remember - imagination is the divine part of the mind but we must use it in benevolent ways and not only fantasize about things that can be. Let us begin to bring these benevolent things that can be into reality.

If you find that this request that you have made with this true magic begins to move off of that place of inertia and opportunities begin to show up then take the physical acts that are necessary to take. Move forward, speak, do and try to keep it benevolent - in other words - good for you and good for others.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Gently Moving Past Inertia, Part 1

Patrice has brought up an interesting question:


Yes Robert,
That is a big issue...I am having workshops about the use of imagination and too many students use imagination as a drug against action...and those who move to the action step get very good results...
but fear of failure is an important aspect...How to work on fears of action...? An important question I think.

Blessings

Patrice


This difficulty, defined by the word inertia, is actually reflective of a great deal going on in our times.

We know that we all have things we like to do - pleasures yes. We have to work, we have to do things we don't always like to do but there are pleasures and this often helps to sustain us through the difficult moments of life or even a long drawn out - things we must do that is more of a duty.

And so not unlike other situations where we might grow dependent upon this behavior or that behavior, perhaps even a food or possibly some other form of stimulant or relaxant, we become dependent on something that we were born with - some of us do eh - and that's our imaginations to fulfill those seemingly unreachable qualities of our lives that we so desire to have.

Sometimes these things are impossible to have and still have the good parts of our life and sometimes if we did act in the way we imagine we or others would be hurt - perhaps badly. And so we fulfill ourselves very often in these desires with imaginations or fantasies.

In some cases I say this is a good thing because those circumstances that might hurt others or hurt ourselves - that would not be something so desirable. Oh perhaps yes, a moment of happiness but I'm sure there are a great many people who can attest to the fact that that moment wasn't worth it in the long run and I'm sure you all either know someone like that or perhaps you can even attest to that yourself.

So what to do about the inertia that keeps us from acquiring something that is benevolent or even generating something that is benevolent for others or both.

Very often what is helpful is to make some kind of a record. You don't have to say - if you're shy about it - you can write down or make a statement of some sort, even speak out loud if nobody's around - you can whisper if there are people around. Say, "I would really like to do..." and then fill in the words.

Make sure it's something benevolent - meaning something that would be good for you and good for others - alright? So you might have to modify your desire so that it fits into that qualification and I'll tell you why I am stating that as a qualification.

It isn't strictly for morals and values though that be a valuable thing - it is also because if you want to have co-operation from other souls, other beings, all beings here on Earth and perhaps even beyond this must be something that is good for you and good for others.

So state it or write it down in some simple way. Don't justify it when you write it or say it out loud, don't justify it at all. Just say - I really need to (blank) and fill it in or if you're writing it down - I really feel such a desire to (then write it in). If you want to and you're not feeling comfortable about keeping such a written thing around then just say it out loud or whisper it - that's fine.

Then what I recommend is that you do some small step towards that. By saying it out loud you've already done a small step towards it. You've made it a portion of your physical life.

You see when you fantasize about something you might not actually be able to take it beyond that point because in a fantasy everything works out well you see - but in real life you know, fantasies do not always play out that way. Of course you know this - but when you state something out loud you see, even as a whisper it becomes a portion of your physical life because you're using your mouth, you're using the tones that you can make or in the case of someone who is writing you're moving your hand and arm - you're doing something physical.

You're taking it from within and you're bringing it out into your physical world in some way. When you do this then that's a good first step.

It's not enough but you'd be surprised how much giving yourself permission to make it a portion of your physical world will feel better. You'll actually physically feel better because it's a form of commitment you see. You're taking it from the fantasy world - alright - to the physical world as a first step.

Then consider as a second step - what can I do to actually bring this about - and it is up to you. Try to do something that would be the next preceding step by preceding something that you would do before you are able to do whatever it is you so desire.

It could be something simple such as if you have a very close friend or companion you could confide in them some portion or even all of your need and desire.

If you do so precede that by saying, "I am attempting to create a pathway to something I need so as my close friend I am asking you to allow me to speak that need to you. Please allow me to go through it all and be done with what I have to say before you say something and I also give you permission to do the same with me if you need something. Please know that this is a step along my process." That's what you could say if you wish.

Perhaps you go to church and pray. You can include it in your prayers but if you do, try to be sitting someplace where you are not near others. If they don't understand why tell them that you have to have a private conference with God - they'll understand and at the same time tell them that it's okay if they do that themselves when they feel the need. It's always good to give permission for something that you need permission for as well.

If you don't go to church then you could perhaps go out someplace on the land if you can, preferably not paved land, and again whisper quietly or say out loud if no ones around what it is you want and need. Put it as simply as possible.

I'd like to give you a living prayer for that and the living prayer might be just exactly this. I recommend you say, "I am asking that that which I hope for, wish for and have fantasized about materialize for me now with all of the co-operation and help that I need from others whether I know these beings or not to bring about the most benevolent outcome and form of this that I need so much."

If you wish you can add a couple of words if there's one or two words that define what it is you are requesting. You can add those one or two words but remember you must keep them benevolent.

It can't be revenge or something like that because you can be certain in the case of something like that that there will be souls that will object - and sometimes they are souls that you would never guess would object.

They could be angels, they could be guides, could be Creator, could also be other beings who might be effected by that revenge - plants, animals, other human beings, other souls in general. So...don't make it revenge.

Ask for what you want and need even if it seems to be impossible. Sometimes souls will do the most unusual things and create what amounts to an opening for you in order to have what you want and need.

Next time I'll give you a little true magic you can do to take it a step further but eventually you will have to do various steps that will help you along the way to achieve what you want.

Do talk to a councilor if you can or an advisor that you trust who is discreet and will not tell others. Perhaps they will have a suggestion as well.

Goodlife.

Creation Energy For You Is Very Strong Now

Have you noticed? There's a lot of energy around now supporting creation and by creation I mean creations that a human being might have. Thoughts, inspirations yes but also fears.

This is a time when it's particularly important to pay attention to what you are thinking because your thoughts sometimes play out in a format in your mind that are based on fears - and I'm not trying to tell you that your fears aren't warranted. What I am saying is that this is the best time now to focus on what you would like to happen.

Don't excessively fantasize because it can give you the rewards and happiness that you often need but in a fictional format. Rather just try to shift your energy into something that is benign and benevolent. Try to see the good in life around you.

It's alright to be discerning and know what is for you and what is for others and it's equally alright to not discard your street smarts but it is very important these days especially to maintain your balance in the benevolent.

Try to maintain that focus where you are feeling good about yourself and about your life - perhaps feeling optimistic about what could be in a rewarding and comfortable way for you and those you love and care about.

Right now for the next 3 to 5 weeks we'll be in an intense period where creation energy is very strong. It is an opportunity for those who are ready to have events, circumstances, people and other things fall into alignment with who you are, what you want, what you need and how you would like to contribute to a better society and world.

It is not a time of manipulation of people. These circumstances that could support what you want and need in a benevolent way will happen voluntarily by people. Most people will not have to make any great effort, it'll just be a minor thing that they will do but the cumulative effect - you understand the overall effect can be very good for you and many others.

So try to stay focused in a benevolent place during this time especially. It will help. Goodlife.
