Dear Ones,
Time is speeding up for everyone on Earth and there is a certain level of panic about it in some people. For millennia human beings have lived with an unconscious understanding that time would pass at a certain rate and that there would always be time enough for anything they wanted to do. Lives were shorter for most humans in history and there was an understanding that one lived each day to its fullest potential because there were no guarantees about tomorrow. People lived in harmony with the seasons and the Sun because they measured time by the signals from them.
In the 21st Century, human beings are living in an artificially created concept of time, where everything is instantly available and changing so rapidly that change can barely be measured before the next change occurs. There is an underlying anxiety of ‘not enough time’ and this translates into a feeling of ‘not enough’ about everything in life. This sense of lack starts with time.
There is a certain peace available to those who live in harmony with Nature and her cycles and without the demands and stress of a timed schedule that requires humans to deny their natural rhythms and the rhythm of the spheres, of Nature. Waking with the Sun, choosing activities based on the season, eating the foods that are available during that season and storing those that can be stored for the times when no food is growing. Travel was slower and so adjusting the body to the new location was easier on the systems. Most people didn’t travel very far from home and so they learned to be in consonance with their usual surroundings. Time was not a pressure but something with which one learned to live as a part of natural life.
Today you are always worried about deadlines and schedules and the pressure of traffic and travel and the expectations that you put on yourselves is artificially created. Can you take some time today to slow your pace and breathe deeply of the atmosphere provided by Mother Earth? Can you look at your schedule and program into it some time for contemplation, peaceful existence rather than busy-ness? Can you reduce the ‘to-do’ list so that you are not feeling at the end of the day as if there is never enough time?
You create for yourself anxiety around a belief of ‘never enough’ when you make for yourself an expectation that you must accomplish more than you can reasonably expect to do in a particular day. Even if you do complete everything on your to-do list for today, will you feel at peace? Will you relax? Or will you be jumping ahead to worry about what is coming next?
In this time of great transition one of the first places that you must explore is your concept of time and your relationship to the time that you have. It is true that the Earth is experiencing some changes that are making this human idea of time as seconds ticking away on a clock seem to be moving at a faster pace than in the past. It is true that the day is no longer the same 24 hours that you used to feel that it was. And so being present to each moment as it presents itself to you becomes that much more important.
Take each moment and live it fully. Do not ask what you can do in that moment but, rather, ask who you will BE. Allow the ‘doing’ to flow from the ‘being’ and you will feel that there is plenty of time.
Work to overcome your sense of ‘not enough time’ and you will feel that there is enough of everything in your life!
And so it is.

MUSE-INGS: Shine the Light of the Real You
February 8, 2012 — RosemaryI have the privilege of working with the best clients in the world. They are each an amazing shining light, a beacon of hope and love to others. And yet I spend a lot of coaching time helping them to own their own brilliance, to ramp up that inner light and to show their inner splendor to the world. This is the essence of the coaching work that I do.
And I see how much energy there is in the world that is trying to hold people back from their own greatness! It is sad and frustrating and anger-provoking when I hear/see this happening. So what is going on?
We’re told by our educational systems that we must toe the line, behave as we’re told to, be good little soldiers and follow orders. We study as we’re directed and we regurgitate the information that we have memorized. Then we go out into the world and get a job where our role is to make the boss look good. Occasionally someone turns to us and lets us shine our light, but just a little, not enough to out-shine anyone above us in the chain.
Entrepreneurs create a business to reach out to others, to make money and, we hope, to shine their light into the world. But do they really understand the role they can play in the overall story that is unfolding?
Our granddaughter is doing an assignment for her English class which is studying Romeo and Juliet. She has to create a mask that displays various aspects of herself – symbols of who she is, what she likes, what she enjoys doing, how she sees herself, something she doesn’t particular like. It’s been fascinating watching her do the self-examination required to create this mask and to hear the reasons behind the symbols that she has chosen. I applaud the teacher of high school freshmen who has given them this assignment. Makayla is creating, quite consciously, a representation of her persona as she sees herself today, and it is beautiful.
Ask yourself who you really are. What symbols would you use to display yourself to the world? And what are the masks that you wear to hide the real you from the rest of us? Are you playing small because you don’t want to out-shine those you perceive as ‘above’ you? Are you trying to shine your light and feeling as if there is always someone with a bucket of water waiting to put out your candle?
The changes that are happening around us are calling us each to determine and to live the life purpose, the soul purpose, for which we incarnated at this time. We chose to be here to take part in the changes that are occurring. We signed up to be agents of change and carriers of the Light while the winds of change are blowing across this planet. But we must grow in our own consciousness if we are to hold the hands of others and to help them to grow as well.
The way to accomplish this is to be who you are, the very Being of Light who lives inside you, who chose this time and this body and these circumstances in which to shine that light out into the world.
Watch the people around you who are struggling with circumstances and listening to the words of an energy I call ‘the contraction of consciousness.’ People forget themselves in this miasma of fear and constriction and horror. They lose touch with their own inner light and they blindly follow someone who feeds their fear to the point where they cannot see their own power to change. They give away their power to someone who will take care of the perceived enemy. This is not expanding consciousness. It constricts the person into a pinpoint of fear until they cannot see beyond that point, cannot expand their awareness to the greater picture, and they become brittle and break.
Be the person who lives in expanded awareness of the bigger picture. Know that you are a Being of Light who is having this Earth experience so that you can grow in consciousness and contribute to the growth of human evolution. Be who you are. That is all that is asked of you and that can be a tall order.
Be the Light.
