Dear Ones,
It is time for each of you to decide what it is that you are going to do to assist Mother Earth in the coming transformations that she must undergo. Are you tuned into and aware of the shifts that are happening on Planet Earth at this time?
Many have asked about the energies of 2012, sometimes with fear and trepidation about what is coming. We would tell you that you have nothing to fear. The shifts that are about to happen have already begun in three-dimensional reality. People are starting to feel the shifts even if they don’t know how to talk about them or can’t quite describe what they are feeling. Many people are reacting to the shifts as if they are afraid of what is happening but what they are afraid of is change.
For some the changes coming will be changes in the amount of power they are able to exert over others. These changes require the toppling of some empires that have been built upon the backs of those who toil to support the structure but who are not able to be recompensed at a level commensurate with their contribution. Some structures that have endured for a long time will no longer be able to function as they have because there is more Light entering the world and they operate in darkness.
You will see throughout the times that people and organizations and, indeed, even cities, towns and government structures, will shift in big ways. Some will topple and some will morph into new forms. The cities that are clinging to the ways of darkness will no longer be able to operate. The government structures that do not support all of the people, especially those who have the least power, will become reversed as all people will be finding ’empowerment’ that comes from within, instead of giving over their power to someone external to them.
So what does this mean to you, Dear Ones? You must be the ones who find that your source of empowerment is the Light Within. Get in touch with your Soul’s purpose and live it – today! Ask yourself how your Life reflects the reason you incarnated on Planet Earth in these times.
Many of you are fretting about finances or jobs or relationships, but are you BEING in the fullness of your humanity? Some of you pay attention to the news and are disheartened or disturbed, but the news is the reporting of events with a commentary to try to get you to think a certain way about those events. This is not about YOU.
What is important to you? Have you done a values assessment lately? Do you know what your highest values are and are you prepared to live those? Or are you succumbing to worry about that which is not the most important part of your Life and allowing the important things to diminish in your attention?
Take some time to list the important values in your Life and then look at your schedule to see if you are devoting a proportional amount of time to those high values. Shifting your thinking about this will help you to understand that you are not a victim of events in the news. You are a person of the Light. Shine that Light in your Life on what really matters. The rest will sort itself out according to your personal value structure.
While other entities topple or restructure, the only one over which you have total control is your own Life. Make the choices that support your purpose. Listen to your inner guidance. And if some area of your Life is not what you desire, then make the changes that you can make, firstly in your thinking about where your empowerment is sourced and then in whatever external circumstances that you can change.
This is YOUR Life. Live it in the Light and be the shining Light that radiates from within you!
And So It Is!

MUSE-INGS: “Power is a loaded concept!” by Rosemary Bredeson
April 19, 2011 — RosemaryWe often think of power when we think of governments or titans of business or the power of the strong over the weak. But I like to think of power as electricity, the power that runs the computer or the dishwasher, the power that enhances the usefulness of an appliance or a person because they are plugged into the source.
Where does your power come from? Are you constantly looking outside yourself for validation or energy or acceptance? If so, are you giving away your power to others?
I know it is not easy to admit that we are giving away our power but it happens all the time, and often in subtle ways. If someone is really bugging you, do you let it eat away at you all day? That’s a form of giving away your power. How about a romantic partner? Are you holding in your feelings and going along with what they want instead of standing up for yourself or speaking your mind in the relationship? This is another way that it is easy to give away your power. How about at work or in your business – are you constantly deferring to others rather than standing up for your opinions and backing up your own suggestions? You give away your power at work, too.
There are times in every parent’s life when they choose to give power to the 2-year-old tyrant because the parent has become exhausted by the tantrum. Admit it, you’ve probably done this once or twice if you’re a parent. And if you have a pet, you have probably, once or twice, given them an extra treat when they whined or performed or begged, right?
What about when you didn’t vote in an election and were disappointed in the result – did you give away your power then? Have you stood by silently and allowed one person to tell a joke that offended someone else in the group? That’s another way of giving away your power.
There are so many situations in your life that give you an opportunity to claim your power as it comes from within you or to quietly allow that power to drift away from you. We do it with our parents, our kids, our bosses, our mates, even our pets. But the most insidious giving up of our powers comes when we fail to examine our beliefs, our own thoughts. Sometimes we give our power up to a belief that has been handed down to us for generations because we never stop to examine that belief and to question whether it is actually true for us today.
Have you ever seen a family of doctors where the family belief is that all the male children become doctors? Or ‘everyone in our family is a lawyer/farmer/accountant/teacher/whatever’? And how often is there a child in the family who has amazing talent as a dancer or a painter but they allow that to be a hobby because they feel compelled to become a doctor or a lawyer or a teacher? They give away their power to the belief that came from outside of them.
When I work with clients we often uncover beliefs that they aren’t even aware they are carrying but that cause them to give away their inner connection to their power because they’ve never examined that belief before. Ask yourself if there are any beliefs about power or your inner power that you can examine and maybe choose to change.
Beliefs are powerful things. Make sure you are choosing consciously to believe what you believe. Examine the source of your beliefs, especially around power. It is a good thing to be in touch with your inner power. This is not the same as exerting power over the powerless. See if you have any hidden beliefs around this issue that might be holding you back from manifesting your Life Purpose on the Planet. This exercise could turn your Life around!
