The last four months of 2007 were an extremely difficult time for me (as well as everyone else on the planet). That year had been a time of major change and transformation for me. I underwent surgery, lost the job I'd held for 18 years, and had two 17-year-olds to raise on my own. The loss of the job was a blessing. I knew that when I was told I had to have the surgery. So I went forward, having faith that somehow the Universe would provide for all my needs.
I did pretty well until December. Kept my awareness on the larger picture and my attention on what I wanted to manifest now that I was free to do so. Even as I did all the "right things," however, it seemed like everything I tried to grasp slipped through my fingers. By December, I was quite discouraged and even shouted at the Universe, "Please just take me now!!!" Of course, I wasn't the only one shouting at the Universe at that time.
I wish I'd understood then the way energy works when it shifts. It wouldn't necessarily have changed my circumstances, but I would have at least known that my apparent failure wasn't my fault.
All of us have different ways of getting to where we want to go. Some of us take the interstate highways because they usually offer the fastest route. Others, preferring to stay away from the hectic pace of the interstates may take major arteries through the city that provide the most direct route. Then there's me. I like to take a more circuitous and scenic route that offers a more relaxed ride.
So we humans go about our everyday lives getting to our destinations in our own unique ways. But these are all linear routes that work very well for us until there is a shift in the energy. When energy shifts, we can't just change the route we take. We have to more or less jump the tracks to plug into the new energy.
In order for us to ascend, the energy has to shift. Of course, we're facing THE BIG ONE in 2012, so learning how to work with the smaller shifts from now until then will help us to prepare for what's coming.
From September through the end of 2007, the energy was getting ready to shift. When energy shifts, it changes form. The process it must go through to do this involves the energy actually pulling back from us to a kind of zero point before bursting forth again at a higher and more powerful vibration.
When the energy pulls back in this way, it can feel like we have been totally abandoned from all the loving support of the Universe-for me it's a painful experience. This is actually what happened with Christ on the cross when he asked, "Why have you forsaken me?" The energy he had relied upon during his life and ministry pulled away from him. But, as it does for all of us, it reconfigured so that he was able to plug into it at the higher vibration. This is how he was able to ascend. By the middle of January, 2008, the energy that had pulled away from us during the last months of 2007 had reconfigured and was available to us as we continued our own ascension process.
My understanding this process of the energy shifts doesn't change the way it works, nor does it make those times when the energy has pulled away from me any less uncomfortable. However, it does help me to continue to have faith that the Universe knows what it's doing. I have chosen this ascension process for myself and to benefit humanity. The truth is that this is what we all came here to do at this time.
For years we have been purging and releasing, purging and releasing, and when we thought there was nothing left, we purged and released some more. Purging and releasing are not always pleasant things to do. However, when the energy, in preparation for shifting, pulls back from us, the more we have released, the lighter we are and the better able we are to plug into the new reconfigured energy at a higher level.
As we purge and release more and more, the core of who we are appears. Thus we are able to find our unique gift and to offer it to the world in a way that raises the vibration of everything and everyone on the planet. It's important for me to remember especially when these shifts occur that I'm not alone. Everyone on the planet is going through this process even though we may be at different levels. Our light is needed now. May our light shine as brightly as possible as we offer our gifts to the world!
