Doorways of Opportunity—Richard’s Commentary

May 30, 2013 — Richard

I always enjoy these messages from The Divine Feminine. I’ve heard and read many over the years I’ve spent at Rosemary’s side. They are always rich with wisdom yet well grounded and practical. And because I’ve heard so many I also know they are genuine. So I pay attention when they speak through Rosemary!

The key to this message is in the very first lines: The flames are licking at the Doors of Change.  Those who fear change are trying to engulf the opportunities in flames so that you and others will not walk through them.  Do not let these fear-mongers paralyze you.

Fear is one of the chief emotions that impacts our willingness, even our very ability to change. We fear change because we don’t know what is on the other side of that door. We know what is on this side and too often we are either too comfortable or too complacent with the status quo to consider what may be on the other side, even if it could be wonderful!

The trouble with comfort and complacency is the inevitability of change. The Divine Feminine say: The evolutionary forces of the Universe are not static.  They are always and forever moving forward, taking with them those who are connected to growth and leaving behind those who wish to go backward, which is the same as attempting to stand still.  There is no standing still.  There is only moving forward or being swamped by the Tides of Change.

Galaxy M106-no labelThe status quo cannot stand against these formidable tides. Consider some of the Hubble pictures Rosemary posts in her Ezine! I’ve included one here (Galaxy M106) to illustrate this point. Imagine the immensity and the enormous energy represented in this galactic “whirlpool.” This is the energy of change alive in the Universe! Yes, “resistance is futile”! We live in a dynamic Universe and The Divine Feminine are suggesting, warning, that if we try to stand still we will be inundated.

There is another force that works to keep us in fear of change; that force is greed. For many the status quo means continued profits; change may impact those profits. Again, the opportunity on the other side of the doorway is veiled; there may be risk involved. There is less risk in the status quo, right? Yes, if the only concern is for the short term; this quarter’s over last quarter’s and last year’s quarter returns. But can the forces of greed resist the coming changes any better than the forces of fear?

Just as change and opportunity are two sides of the same coin, we can look at fear and greed in the same way. Greed is a fear of not having enough; it is born from a sense of lack. Much is never enough. Too much is better but still not enough! There is a strong resemblance here among change, fear and greed.

We have to step through this doorway, even as the flames of fear and greed lick the frame and turn us away. Opportunity is the only way to approach change. Yes, there are unknowns beyond the doorway; yes, there are risks that must be faced. But the changes are coming, are here, whether we resist them or not. It is far better to ride the tide of this transformative time and rise with the opportunities that flow our way. Seize them, not as life lines, not out of greed or the need for gain, but for advancement, for the evolution of humanity, of the Universe. The force of evolution is here and will press on with us or without us.

Are you ready for the evolutionary ride of your life? Grab hold!

MUSE-INGS: “It’s Time to Shift for 2012!”

August 16, 2011 — Rosemary

Everyone seems to have questions about 2012 and there are confusing sources of answers about what is coming. Let’s talk about what our responsibility is in the coming days.

Each individual is being called to their higher purpose and it is time to lift our heads up out of the sand, metaphorically, or at least out of the confusion of our physical lives, and look to the horizon of Life on Planet Earth. We have been humans on Earth for millennia. We have been growing and learning with the passage of each year. Sometimes societies have dropped back a bit in their evolution of Consciousness [they were, after all, called ‘The Dark Ages’] but there have always been people who are exploring the boundaries, reaching beyond the limits as generally understood, and seeing into the possibilities that exist.

And there have always been those who hold back, who love the status quo or are so afraid of change that they prefer to stay stuck where they are even if it is uncomfortable. Some of these have created a deity of gold, money and power. Some others have given away their personal power and cower in their feelings of helplessness and victimhood. Some people have hidden behind religions or ideologies or politics or movements and choose not to examine their personal responsibility within the context of an organization to which they belong. And some people have decided that their primary motivation is greed and that this world is a dog-eat-dog world so they must amass what fortune they can so that whatever happens in the future the money in their mattress will lift them up above all the others on the Planet.

Guess what? What’s coming is a shift in Consciousness, a lifting of the vibrational frequency of our Mother, the Earth. Money in the mattress has no bearing on what is coming. But fear of lack will hold you back from the evolution that lifts you into higher Consciousness.

Are you listening to economic reports and getting fearful? Are you worrying about paying your bills? Are you despairing of attaining your dreams because you see money slipping away from you? Stop this!

Dream your dreams. My business card is really a quote card with this thought that I penned on the front of it: ‘Always reach beyond what you can see – your Big Dream is there!’ If your finances aren’t what you would wish, shift your thinking. Everything that is happening in your life began as a thought. That thought was processed through your belief system. And your actions follow that. Do you believe that you can achieve your dreams? Do you care?

So now move beyond the circumstances of today in your life and look at life around you. Notice the sentence in the Mystic Message about greed: ‘It is greed for what one desires that brings on worries.’ LOVE your dreams into existence. Do not try to grab what you can. ALLOW your desires to be fulfilled. Stay at the vibration of your dreams.

Does this mean you can just sit and visualize without taking action? No. Remember: your thoughts are processed through your belief system and your actions follow. Thoughts without actions do not materialize your dreams. Unconscious, unexamined belief structures within us can block the realization of our dreams. Work at all three levels of your existence.

What thoughts are you inserting into the Collective Consciousness? Are you aware of your thoughts? When you speak, are you conscious of the words, emotions, meaning of what you are saying? What are you putting out there for your grandchildren and great-grandchildren to access?

Have you worked to identify your belief structures, the system of beliefs under which you operate, consciously AND unconsciously? In my work with private clients we spend most of our time identifying what is going on unconsciously so that they can make conscious choices about the actions they will take. It is difficult to access what is going on at the unconscious level without a guide to help you. And this is very important work if you are going to lift your vibration to the level of your dreams from the physical problem level.

And then you must determine the actions that you will be taking. This is where learning to connect with your inner guidance and wisdom will help you to expand the possibilities for you to choose from when you decide on an action to take.

Alignment with your purpose, clearing away negative thoughts and limiting beliefs, and deciding on actions from an expanded source of possibilities – this is how the Conscious Human lives into 2012. There’s no other way to shift into that higher vibration.

from The Divine Feminine: “2012 and What You Are Putting into the Collective Consciousness”

August 15, 2011 — Rosemary

Dear Ones,

The world is a changing place. The coming energies of 2012 demand that each individual takes responsibility for his or her own life. No blaming others. No looking to others for rescue or salvation. No giving away of power. Each human being is called to claim their own inner power, no matter what the outside circumstances might indicate. Every individual must find their own voice.

But, and this is a big part of the coming times, each individual must also see that they are a part of a collective whole, that All Are One, for greed is the energetic force that convinces an individual that they are separate from the others. LOVE is the energetic force that calls forth compassion, an energy of compassion that is not born in pity but rather from an understanding that All are Connected in the Whole.

Isolationism will destroy the world if it is born out of greed and lack of compassion. Individuals need each other on a primal, survival level in the 21st Century. Very few people are totally self-sufficient, especially in the Western World, where people rely on methods of transportation that use fuels that deplete the health and vitality of Mother Earth. And yet many individuals are acting as if they are totally independent of all others. This is hypocrisy!

We are not just talking about having food, shelter, transportation and medical care here, but there is a societal factor to the interaction between and among human beings. People need other people. Conversation that uplifts and expands the individuals involved, or that brings nebulous ideas into clearer focus based on the synergy of the discussion is beneficial to all of humanity because of the resultant expansion of the Collective Consciousness.

Every person should see their thoughts, speech and actions as elements affecting the Collective Consciousness. Are you expanding that? Or are your thoughts, speech and actions having a deleterious effect on those around you and, thus, on the Collective Consciousness? What are you putting into this body of consciousness for your grandchildren and great-grandchildren to access in the future?

You have a responsibility to future generations to avoid polluting the Collective Consciousness with negative energy. You have a responsibility to future generations to expand the world view from the tiny perspective based on greed to the expanded one that flows from the energy of Love.

Love cares that other human beings are suffering. Love understands that those who have much are required to share so that all on the planet might live. Love dictates that wars and killing are not the answers that move humanity forward in the evolution of Consciousness. Love teaches that one person’s choice for greed over Love constricts the energy not only of that one person but of all around them. Love is generous in thought, accepting others as they are, sharing from the heart, supporting others along their journey. Love does not judge. Love does not hate. Love does not set oneself up as better than others but seeks to understand and accept differences. Love reaches out to serve not to grab what it can. Love connects one to Source Energy so that miserliness and greed do not resonate and are eliminated.

Each person must now seek this kind of Love, for all worries and concerns are dissipated in the energy of Love. It is greed for what one desires that brings on worries. Surrendering to the flow of Love expands one so much that one’s Life can then encompass that which one desires in one’s heart. This way of Living will shift the Conscious Ones into the next vibration.

And that is the task for every human being now inhabiting Planet Earth.

And So It Is.

MUSE-INGS: “Greedy Hermit or Compassionate Conscious Being” by Rosemary Bredeson

January 25, 2011 — Rosemary

Well, I, for one, do not want to be a ‘greedy hermit’!

And, yet, sometimes it feels greedy to just want a little time alone when there are so many demands being placed on our time and energy.  How to strike a balance?

The first way to do this is to get in touch with what is going on inside you in this present moment.  Asking yourself how you feel, what’s happening inside with relation to outside, is an important tool to cultivate.  Oftentimes we go through our days on a sort of autopilot that keeps us from being really aware of the energies within and around us.  We plow through our to-do lists, going from one project or activity to another.  How many times have you said to yourself or others, ‘In a minute…’?  Can you find a way to pause and be fully present to this moment NOW?

When we pause and take a breath into this moment we are connecting with our body and our own energy and there is a lot of information available to us through this connection.  When we are aware, we can sense our feelings and the energies of those around us.  The more you practice this skill the greater will be your awareness of these energies.

For example, if you are blithely going through your day and yet a co-worker or spouse or child is struggling with their day, do you take time to notice?  Or are you so wrapped up in your own stuff that you are oblivious to that struggle?  It is not a judgment against you if the answer is ‘yes’ but this could be your wake-up call that sometimes you need to come up for air and, like a submarine’s periscope, scan the horizon for what is going on around you.

Do you participate in conversations or discussions without really listening to what others are saying, verbally and non-verbally?  Maybe you can start checking on yourself every so often to see where your attention has been and bring it back to connecting with those around you.

Watching your language, your tone of voice, making eye contact, your body language – all of these awarenesses can lead you to improving the connections that you have with others.  With more information about what is going on with the other or others, compassion can rise up in your heart and you can offer that energy in response to what is going on.  If you are clueless to what is happening around you, then you cannot connect to compassion.  And you want to.

Compassion is a very high frequency energy that is important to the world today.  The more we can share that energy the more the Planet can benefit.  One compassionate act can also bring others along with it.  The compassionate one can bring awareness to the clueless, can move the ‘greedy hermit’ into consideration of others.  Compassion can be contagious!  Wouldn’t you like to be the Typhoid Mary of Compassion?

Make a commitment to yourself that you are going to spread compassion this week wherever you find yourself.  At a gathering, look around for the person who seems lonely or alone and chat with them.  At home, look at the others in your household and really see them.  Ask questions and stay interested in their answers.  On the street or at the mall, try walking around smiling at people, saying, ‘Excuse me’ if you bump into them, or even if they bump into you.  Ask the server at the restaurant how they are doing and listen to their answer.  Spread compliments [heart-felt, please!] everywhere you go.  If you are looking for something to compliment you will not be focused on finding fault.

Become more aware of others and of what is going on inside you.  Awareness brings consciousness and compassion can spring from that.  See what it feels like to keep yourself in this high frequency energy!

THIS WEEK’S MYSTIC MESSAGE from The Divine Feminine: “Are you a ‘greedy hermit’?”

January 24, 2011 — Rosemary

Dear Ones,

A Conscious Life demands that an individual be aware at all times of their thoughts, their feelings, the effect of what they are saying and doing on others, and the impact that every thought they hold has on the Universe at large.  One cannot live a Conscious Life while ignoring others around them nor can one choose to be a ‘greedy hermit,’ one who chooses to think only of themselves and to gather what they can to themselves without concern about the greater good of All or the impact to others.

This means that, if you wish to live a Conscious Life, then you must find compassion within your heart as you go about every decision in your day.

Compassion goes far beyond giving alms to the poor or volunteering at a homeless shelter.  Compassionate living requires constant attention to the people around you and those who will be impacted by your actions.  Are you throwing trash on the floor that someone later must bend over and pick up?  Are you expecting service from a restaurant worker and leaving a small tip or none at all?  Do you celebrate that a clerk in a store made an error in your favor on your bill, forgetting or ignoring the fact that that clerk must pay that difference out of their own pocket?

And how do you treat the people you live with?  Are you more courteous to your co-workers than to your family?  Do you excuse rude behavior at home because you are tired from working all day?  Do you have time for those who ask it of you, like a spouse or child or parent or friend?  Or are you constantly finding excuses to avoid giving your time to others who might want or need it?

What do your thoughts in a day say about your level of compassion?  When you pass someone in need, do you help or offer help or do you get angry at their being in your sphere?  What kind of energy are you sending out with your thoughts of and toward others?  How do you feel about debates in your society?  Do your decisions, about politics or contributions or choosing friends, come from a place of genuine compassion for others or do they stem from prejudices, fears, intolerances?

All of these questions can lead you to an understanding of how a person who is living consciously does not compartmentalize compassion.  When you choose a path in life that causes you to find fault with others, to criticize, to avoid interactions with those whom you deem unacceptable, according to some arbitrary criteria, then you are choosing a path away from the Path of Compassion.  You might not even realize that you are making this choice but moving through Life in an unconscious manner causes you to lack compassion because you are unaware of the needs of others.

Practice compassion in your Life.  Look around you with open eyes.  Evaluate what you are doing and thinking by expanding your awareness to all who will be affected by your actions and thoughts.  Really take the time to listen to others, to hear their hidden messages as they share with you.  Become aware of your voice, your tone, your look when you communicate with another.  Are you sending out the energy of caring and compassion or are you discounting that person?  Are you in a conversation listening to the other person or are you busy thinking about what you want to say, or what you think, or what all this means for you?

The ‘greedy hermit’ thinks only of what they want, what they think they need.  This kind of greed blocks the compassionate energy that all humans are born with.  Little toddlers will try to share or to comfort or to help.  When they learn to differentiate themselves from others they start to use the term ‘mine’ to try to define themselves and to learn where their boundaries are.  If raised in a compassionate environment, they will continue to share and to care about the feelings of others.  But if they are raised to grab all they can for themselves without regard to the consequences to others then they will learn to put on blinders and to shut down natural compassionate urges.

Model compassion for all around. Care.  Listen.  Share, especially yourself.  As you give this sharing energy into the Universe, the Universe will respond with the same kind of energy toward you.  Sharing keeps you from becoming a ‘greedy hermit’!

And so it is.

THIS WEEK’S MYSTIC MESSAGE from The Divine Feminine: Pay attention to the magic!

August 9, 2010 — Rosemary

Dear Ones,

Where is the magic in your life today?  Are you aware of magic at work around you all the time?  Or do you think of magic as something that a magician does in a show to fool your eyes?

When we speak of ‘magic’ here we mean the unexplainable that happens in your life with wondrous results.  A person you haven’t seen in a long time comes to mind and shortly thereafter you see them or receive a phone call from them.  You need to buy a pair of shoes and when you get to the store the exact shoes you were looking for appear and are on sale.  You need a doctor and your friend brings up the name of a specialist she thinks is an excellent doctor.  The list of possibilities goes on and on.

But do you think of these as ‘magic’ or do you still believe in coincidence?

Magic happens in your life because you project outward into the Universal Consciousness a thought that forms a picture that has an energy attached to it that creates magnetism.  This chain, from your thought to the magnetic energy associated with it, is the real magician in your life.  This process is at work in your life whether you are conscious of it or not.  How many times have you said, ‘See?  I told you this wouldn’t work out [or that bad thing would happen or I wouldn’t get what I wanted]!’  When you worried about something or thought that you wouldn’t get what you wanted you energized that picture of problems or lack and that is what materialized.

The Universe is not a magician trying to fool your eyes with complex tricks to make you feel bad.  The Universe is, instead, a kind and generous place, working to fulfill the requests that you energize from a place of purity, compassion [for self and others], and a desire for the highest good of all.  When you are focused on these things, you have much magic at your disposal.

So how will you use your powers of magic from this day forward?  Do you think you can separate yourself from greed and personal desires and lift your thoughts into the space of what is good for all?  Wanting something for yourself is not necessarily greed in a negative sense, but wanting something that is not in your highest good or in the highest good of all around you does not bring you the happiness that you are seeking.  Beware of the insidious nature of greed, for it manifests in cloaked ways, masquerading as being for the good of all.

For example, there are those who seek much money with the claim that ‘someday’ they will do something philanthropic with their millions.  They sound like compassionate souls but that ‘someday’ is not energizing the magic that comes into the life of someone who, without the millions today, is still helping the less fortunate.  Greed for power over others is damaging to the greedy person as well as the people who become subjugated to that greed.  It might not look like ‘greed’ as you would expect but condescension, arrogance, a ‘me first’ attitude, are all examples of greed for power over others.  This energetic does not create real magic.

We are not saying that there is anything wrong with money or power, per se.  They are both words that describe energies in the human world.  What one does with money, how one relates to money and how much power over the decisions of one’s life that money has – these are what define the energy of money.  Power, within oneself, becomes empowerment to fulfill one’s Soul Purpose on Planet Earth.  However, when one wishes to exert power over another, one is attempting to take away that other’s personal empowerment and replace it with complacence and submission to someone else’s will.  This destroys the magic in both people’s lives.

Strive to use magic in your own life as a way to make all of Life around you be a glorious expression of the power inherent in human beings to bring Light into the world.  Focus on the ways that you can feel more empowered in your life, even if at times it seems that your power has slipped away.  Find a single area in which you feel empowered and focus on that area.  Then notice other areas where magic has occurred and notice how empowering that can be.

Pay attention to the magic in your life and you will start to feel empowered in all areas.  The magic is there for you to find!

And so it is.
