Dear Ones,
Life on Planet Earth has changed much in the last few generations. If you can imagine what life was like in the 19th Century and then through the 20th Century you can see the amazing shifts that have occurred in the daily lives of individuals around the globe.
Now look around you at the 21st Century. During these days you have more contact with others around the globe instantaneously than your predecessors were able to create across months, years or even lifetimes. This gives you access to ideas and feelings and cultures that may differ from yours in significant ways and allows you to consider possibilities that previous generations would not have been exposed to.
What will you do with this? Will you continue to stay in the box that earlier people lived in because they could not see beyond that box or will you expand your thinking into new possibilities?
This expansion is what is called forth in the energy of the new Century and 2012 is a pivotal point in that energy shift.
No longer can provincialism live because people and cultures are no longer isolated. No longer can one country operate as if it were the only one in the world because all other countries have eyes trained on the rest of the world. Events happening on the other side of the globe are instantaneously reported and therefore become a part of the consciousness of all. Happenings cannot be ignored for months or years because they occur at a distance – they must be faced and dealt with immediately.
There are advantages to this aspect of life in the 21st Century. For example, weather issues and natural disasters can be predicted and warnings can save lives. Victims can receive aid [and you can assist from afar] because you learn about a situation while there is time to do something. Countries can cooperate to respond to a problem or to work together to advance the interests of all without having to handle issues in isolation. And people can travel across the globe with ease and regularity to extend human contact beyond what was possible even 100 years ago.
Friendships can now span the globe. Families can live at a distance from each other and yet technology allows members to ‘see’ each other and to stay connected in meaningful ways that do not rely on letters that might take months to travel between them.
Each individual on Planet Earth in the 21st Century is a member of this connected community. Each person is a part of every other person’s Earth Family. Each has the support of the global community to explore and expand awareness through global connections. Students can easily study subjects that were not available to them for study in earlier generations. And all human beings can be students of human nature and evolution.
Consciousness does not expand in total oblivion of what is going on around oneself. Conscious evolution requires each person to learn about the world and to explore it. You are inhabiting one of the planets of the Universe. Learn what you can about that planet and the other inhabitants while you are all members of the Earth Community!!
And so it is.

MUSE-INGS: Survival Depends on Living Your Purpose
April 18, 2012 — RosemaryThe idea of the Earth’s energy grid has been around for a long time. But we often forget how interconnected we are with this energy grid and how that connects us to all other human beings. How can some people think as if they live in isolation of all other people?
I think that there is a reason that this connectedness keeps being brought up for us to examine. We forget that both the connectedness and our uniqueness can co-exist. As individuals we don’t want to lose our individuality and focusing on our uniqueness helps us to feel ‘special.’ That’s true for everyone.
But the Planet can be inhabited by a whole bunch of ‘special’ people, can’t it?
If you are a parent, you probably want each of your children to feel special in some way and yet you love all of them equally. You want your special child to also care about others, though, because that compassion for others matters in life.
I believe we need to teach our children and grandchildren about the connectedness of all while still teaching them about their uniqueness. As I work with clients around finding their Purpose there is also the element of how to manifest that Purpose in the world. Your Purpose is a description of your node in that energy grid of the Earth-Life. You light up the world when you live your Purpose. Everyone living on the Planet with you has a connection with each other living human that is defined by their Purpose. This is how we keep the energy of the Earth-Life vibrant.
For some people, their Purpose is to be in the spotlight, to be out there as a teacher/artist/mentor, etc. For others, their Purpose is a quieter one – to place their energy in their family or their business or their creativity. Your Purpose is to make a difference on the Planet during your lifetime and that can be a quiet difference or a huge public impact.
The important thing about living your Purpose is that you are connected to all others who, at the soul level, are counting on you to live that Purpose as they are required to live theirs. This is 21st Century Earth Human expanding the consciousness that has been building since the Earth was first formed.
Past generations of humans spent their energy focused solely on survival. They weren’t spending much time on expanding consciousness unless they were the philosophers of their generation or culture. But times have changed and we now have lots of opportunities to distract ourselves from our evolutionary path, with TV, video games, sports, etc. Where are the philosophers? Are you one of them? And most people in recent times in Western Society have not had to focus so much on survival so there has been a relaxing of the energy of eking out a living but not a turning to personal growth instead of merely existing. The time for this to change is upon us.
I believe the recent economic situation has caused everyone to rethink who they are on the Planet. Some are once again focusing on survival in ways that they haven’t had to in the past. Some are expanding their awareness from a new place of understanding about the connectedness of human beings.
Survival in this new world will require us to learn new ways of thinking. This is why the new energy center is emerging in 21st Century human beings. This heart-mind center, located between the heart and the throat, brings in a fresh new way to think/feel/operate in the world. This will help us to make the changes that are necessary for both survival and the expansion of consciousness.
All Are One – we are all connected. You Are Unique – You are the one who can live your Purpose.
Maybe what is called for in these times is no longer ‘survival of the fittest’ but ‘survival of the Purpose-full.’
Think about that from the energy of your new heart-mind center!
