ROSEMARY’S EXPLORATION: The Success of Your Authentic Self

We forget, sometimes. We get caught up in images and activities and, horror of horrors, what other people think. We look in the mirror and see all the things that don’t match what we think we are supposed to look like. We envy the person who has the better partner, car, job, bank account.

And so we try. We follow a leader who says, ‘Just do what I do and you will have great success.’ We buy the clothes we think we should wear. We only date the folks we think our friends, parents, children will approve. We take a job that pays what someone says we should make, even if the job makes us feel miserable.

We forget.

We forget to reach inside ourselves for answers. We forget that we are ‘enough’ just as we are. We forget that no one else knows exactly what our Soul Contract with the Universe is and that we agreed to come into this world at this time.

We forget that we are a Child of the Universe with a unique reason for being on Planet Earth in the 21st Century. We forget that Mother Earth asked for us to come to her at this very moment in her history. We forget that we have a Purpose and that there is a reason we were born.

Our only work is to remember.

Remember that you are the only YOU the Universe will ever need. Remember that you are the Light of the World that only you can shine. Remember that your Purpose cannot be accomplished by any other Soul.

Remember that the Universe and Mother Earth conspired to bring you into human form to accomplish that Purpose and that they pledged to support you, with all the resources that you need to do that.

And all that you need to do is to Remember Who You Are.

Remember that all the circumstances around you have been brought to you by your ego/personality so that your Soul can learn the lessons it needs to learn. Remember that you are NOT your circumstances.

Remember that all the people around you are present to assist you in learning your lessons. Some of them drew the short straw and agreed to come into being so that they could represent the ‘jerk’ energy that you need to encounter to help you learn your lessons. Some people are here to help you remember that, while they may act as if they have something to say about you, you are not defined or confined or identified by anything that they say or think.

Your Authentic Self is the You who is the Light in the World that vibrates to your own unique frequency. Your success depends only on the extent to which you express your unique self in the world.

Be authentic. Be the real you. There is no one and nothing to hide behind. No one can judge you. No one can hold you back. Who can fight against the Universe and Mother Earth who are united to support you?

Get to know your Authentic Self. Get help to recognize yourself if you forget who you are. Present ONLY your Authentic Self to the world and allow others to learn their own lessons while you focus on yours.

And all you have to do is Remember.

MUSE-INGS: “Just BE Who You Are!”

Be true to who you are.  Be your authentic self.  Just be you.

Does that concept confuse you?  Who ARE you, really?  Do you know?

It seems that we are supposed to know easily just who we are.  We can define the roles that we play: wife, mother, sister, grandmother, teacher, student, friend, etc.  But, does that really address who we are inside?  Who we were born to be in the Universe’s great scheme of things?  I think not.

So how do you answer the question of ‘Who are you, really?’

Try right now, for a few minutes, to come up with a good answer for that.  Don’t answer with what your roles are, or what your job is, or what your task for the day is, but really examine your inner being for some guidance here.  You are, of course, all of those roles, and all of the jobs and tasks, but there is something behind all of that that is very important for you to discover.

Who are you, really?

If you play with that idea, and catch yourself defining yourself by external measurements, then you will, at some point, start to get deeper answers that become more meaningful to you.  Are you hearing something about being a Being of Light?  Are you a Beacon?  Are you a Touchstone for others?  Are you a Giver?  A Listener?  A Timeless Spirit with a Gift to Share?  Who are you, really?

The possibilities are endless but they are not the same as ‘wife, mother, teacher, sister, etc.’ are they?

Bring your attention to how it feels as you explore who you really are.  Are you feeling confused?  Frustrated?  Angry?  Elated?  What are you feeling?  This will give you a clue about how close you are coming to the true answer to the question.

For many people, the answer to ‘Who am I?’ brings with it a feeling of the immense size of that answer.  And with that feeling of immensity comes the doubting energy that says, ‘Who do you think you are to be something that big?’  Am I right?  Did you hear that voice or something like it?  Well, let me tell you that that is not the voice of your inner self assisting you in accessing your authenticity, for who are you NOT to be that big?

The Universe and Mother Earth conspired to have you exist on this Planet at this time for the purpose of assisting the unfolding of the Universe’s Grand Plan.  You must step into your power, be the ‘who’ that you were born to be, so that you can fulfill your part in this Plan.  Who do you think you are to deny the Universe and Mother Earth your participation in this unfolding Grand Plan?  Aha, we have you there, right?

Thinking small and playing small do not serve you or anyone else.  Be the person you were born to be.  And do not worry about what you are to do.  ‘Being’ is more important than ‘doing.’  The ‘doing’ must follow from the ‘being’ who you are.

And Joy, a deep, abiding, inner sense of Joy, is the promised reward.

MYSTIC MESSAGE: from The Divine Feminine: “Joy — the Reward for Being Who You Really Are!”

Dear Ones,

Joy is a gift that you give yourself when you do the inner work required to experience personal and spiritual growth.  Think about how important it is to do the work, constantly and devotedly, to live a Conscious Life.  You cannot take ‘time off’ from this work.  But it does not need to be tedious.

When you make the commitment to live consciously you open yourself to the awareness of Life that starts within you.  Everything you do or think is then focused through the lens of the greater picture of how you live, what you choose and how you fit into the fabric of the Universe in a given moment.  Once you have learned the importance of becoming awake and aware at all times, you cannot go back to sleep.  Oh, you can choose at times to act as if you are ignorant of what we are saying, but there will always be a part of you that is longing for that consciousness of the greater import of what you are choosing and how you are living your life.

And Joy is the reward for living the Conscious Life!  This Joy of which we speak is the Joy that resides deep within you, that cannot be shaken by outer circumstances.  You will feel this deep Joy when you are staying awake and aware of the choices you make in a given day.  Noticing what is required of you by the others around you gives you a hint of the consequences of choosing to go back to sleep. People need for you to stay awake.  People around you have a need for you to be who you are, at all times.  When you find yourself believing that you must put up a false front for someone, question whether that person really needs to be in your life at this time.

Think about that.  If you cannot be yourself, your true, authentic, self, at all times with a person, then why are you in relationship with that person?  Time is speeding up for humans on Planet Earth at this time and there is no time to waste playing the game of being a different person for each other person with whom you interact.  Do you feel that you are walking on eggshells around a certain person because you cannot relax and be who you are?  Are you concerned about losing the love or respect of someone because you do not have the energy to keep up the pretense of being what they want or expect instead of who you really are?

Own your very essence, the true being that you are at your core.  The time for pretense has long passed.  Now is the time for authenticity.  Do you struggle with knowing who you really are?  Are you concerned that you have lost touch with your authentic inner self?  Then get some help in that discovery.  Go inside.  Consult with a guide.  Meditate or journal or work with someone until you know, with certainty, who you are.

For you are very important to the Plan of the Universe as it is unfolding.  The 21st Century is a time where this Plan is developing and expanding and manifesting the reality of the rest of the Century and you play an integral part in that Plan.  But first you must be clear about who you are.  Then you must be that and only that.

And we promise you that Joy is the reward you will receive for committing to be your authentic self in the World!

And so it is.

MUSE-INGS: Empowerment and Change

Change.  The word keeps popping up, it seems.  And some of us really don’t want any changes while some of us want everything to change.  How do you feel at this moment?  Is there something you would really like to change but don’t know how?  Or do you feel that you can’t, for whatever reason, make the change you desire because of repercussions or what other people will do/say?

Let’s agree that if we want to change we will figure out a way to do so.  For example, if you are wanting to change the way you eat but you have a family with whom you eat meals at home, what are you doing about your desire to eat differently?  If you don’t do it, then ask yourself if you are giving your power away.  If you really want to change, you can find a way to modify the food served so that everyone can be happy.  What else do you want to change that would only require a small shift in your thinking in order to facilitate that change?  Maybe the only shift is from “I can’t” to ‘How can I?”

When we are told that there is energy of change around us and we will be supported, then this is a good time to examine our lives in depth and honesty to determine what we wish were different.  I know the things I would like to do differently but maybe I use the other members of the household as an excuse to avoid making changes.  Do I really want to change or do I think I ‘should’ change?  That’s a good question to ponder, for if I really wanted to change maybe I would have done so already.  And if there is something I want to change I can go ahead and do it, when I am feeling personally empowered.

It all comes down to where my personal power resides.  Do I reach inside and tap into my own inner power or am I /have I given away my power to someone external to myself and I am allowing that to determine my current direction?

Once I have examined these questions I can make a conscious decision about how to move forward.  It seems to me that the times are coming when each of us must stand on our own while remaining connected to all others.  This is a skill that too many of us have not yet developed.  What is in my own highest good while I am considering the highest good of all?  This represents a delicate balance but awareness starts with self-awareness.  And self-awareness starts with self-observation.  Until we can learn to become dispassionate, nonjudgmental observers of ourselves, we cannot claim our own power and change ourselves and our lives.  The first change we must make is to observe without judgment and make our choices in that context.

And we must also learn that introspection is a good practice to cultivate.  Go inside and become acquainted with your inner, authentic self.  Are you pleasing others by ignoring how you really feel?  Are you operating under the influence of decisions made in your childhood?  What motivates you?  Are you constantly aware of parts of yourself that you are denying or are you accepting of yourself in your totality?

Practice asking yourself if what you are observing is real.  Is this true?  You might surprise yourself with your answers.  Learn how to get in touch with what is real for you in any given moment.  If you need help doing this, then work with a nonjudgmental counselor who will help you find the ‘you’ behind the mask.

As we approach change, in our own lives and in the Planet, we must be careful to be authentic and honest with ourselves.  The time is now to do the inner work and to find our own inner power.  Empowered individuals can revolutionize the world.
