We are well pleased with this request to do these meditations and feel you will benefit by participating in them if you choose to. The topics, although they are called air, earth, metal, fire, and so on, have a non-physical aspect which are basic understandings of creation and the tools that you manipulate unknowingly as you create your life and walk through your life. You are part of these elements.
(Higgins felt our energy bodies using Cheryl’s hands to outline each of us.) All our energy is good. Shapely, moving at the right speed and we believe that after our conversation tonight you will feel good. Your energy body is like a balloon. If you blow it up it is quite taut and firm. If it’s not quite taut there will be little spongy spots. So, for any spongy spots we may have felt on you, as we continue with our conversation they will puff out and you will feel good. Where do you want to start?
P: When Trump was elected you told us we had 4 years to write down the kinds of leaders that we want and that gives the Universe time to put those people in place so that can happen. Well, Trump keeps changing everything and now he’s not funding democratic states that didn’t vote for him and trying to control the mid-term elections by having the federal govt. deal with that. We don’t have a lot of time. I’m wondering what we can do? We had 4 years but now we only have a few months for the mid-terms. He keeps changing everything and trying to control everything. How do we deal with that?
H: All of these things he does he is doing them for you. He is doing them to help keep you off balance b/c you wanted to learn how to remain stable. The most important thing is to stay stable. No matter what happens. Things are working out in your best interest, so let them. Keep focusing on the qualities that you do like. Focus on what you want. Focus on the outcome and by that we mean if you would like stability in your govt then focus on a stable govt. If you would like economic prosperity then focus on prosperity for the country. What are the outcomes you want from your govt? What are they? Does anybody want to list some?
P: integrity, honor, respect for others, decency, competence, and ability to listen.
H: We suggest you get your list and think about it on a regular basis and then look into your life on a regular basis and do the math.
(Cheryl’s note: ‘Do the math’ means to list in your mind or on paper all the ways in which the desired items or qualities are showing up in your life.)
In what ways are those things showing up? Start attracting the behaviors that you desire from those around you; and then from your local govt and neighborhood. Start anywhere and don’t worry about what’s happening in the White House. Look upon it as fodder for you to focus on what you want.
P: I have been wanting to have this in the condo complex. I am happy to see that is finally happening. We have different kinds of people living here. It is happening. I will continue working with that.
H: Start close to home with things that you can actually touch. If you start thinking about how to change the govt at the capital in Washington, D.C. you are not going to have so much luck as if you start in your condo, neighborhood, or on your street. If you build that, what you are doing is building a metaphor or hologram – the Universe is a holographic so everything is a smaller portion of another. So, friend S, as you build that in your neighborhood, then you are building the opportunity for that same thing to be repeated and repeated like a cauliflower or broccoli head.
P: We are also talking about doing things that are better for the land and air and maybe getting rid of lawn you have to put stuff on to prevent weeds. Those discussions are beginning as well.
P: I have noticed lately in my interactions in the community that people are really nice. It is a blessing to have these good interactions with people.
P: I’d like to add to this. For years and years now we have talked about how urban areas create isolation in people and diversity has become an issue in urban areas. If you look at people in Minneapolis, they are now forming community and preserving it as they do the protests. There are food chains to help people, they are knowing their neighbors, making friendships. In the last two weeks, the native Americans came out and were doing circle dances at the protests. I bet half the people watching the dances had never been to a powwow and now the powwow came to them off of native lands.
Last night by the capital they pitched teepees and lit them from inside. It is such a major symbol to me of the growth and understanding with such a history of hurt, slavery and how we treated Native Americans. So, to have us now sharing in culture I can appreciate that in every dark there is a bit of silver lining.
P: We had someone bring potato soup to our sign waving rally the other day. Nice.
P: On the news the other night in Louisville, KY, there was a lost little boy and about 6 cop cars came into the neighborhood where the boy lived and began looking for him. All of a sudden a dog appeared and came up to one of the cops and barked and motioned for the cop to follow him. He kept coming back to the cop and barking and then moving on and coming back. The cop was talking to him and saying “what is it? What are you saying? Is there something you know?” He followed the dog around a corner to an SUV and the kid had accidentally locked himself inside. No one had every seen the dog before until that day and no one has seen him since. He helped save the kid and disappeared.
P: Good magic!
H: If you will think of these difficult times as a birthing process – it is uncomfortable and sometimes painful -you will recognize the things you are seeing as fruits of your labor.
P: We have always asked you how long is this planetary transition going to last (note from scribe: I think Higgins said at least 75 more years), and I think “oh, I would really like to be here at the end, but I am too old.” As it looks right now I won’t be here then. I was looking at how even with the Epstein files, other countries are participating in trying to uncover the truth. I also was thing about the 100th monkey. What if humans surprise everybody including ourselves and it won’t take us (40) years to make a planetary jump? What if humans like ourselves will make a concerted effort to say “I want to see the good in our species and want to move things forward quickly.” Since I’ve had that thought, part of my western training says “well, that is probably not going to happen. But my spiritual self says “anything can happen.” It’s the “what if?” It makes me feel better that the spiritual jump can happen on a different time table – one that surprises everybody in the Universe.
P: That is a really interesting comment to me. I have been thinking about how the European govts and monarchies are handling this. I hadn’t thought at all in relation to the 100th monkey theory. Oh, that is so interesting.
P: Our energy could be moving things so much faster than our intellect can accept.
P: Write that down!
H: WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT IS TOTALLY POSSIBLE and each of you wants better. The more opportunity that you have to show this, the more people see a different way of being. Like when you drop a pebble in the water and it spreads out, so each time you make an act of kindness you make more opportunity for people to feel that and to understand what it is and to recognize that it is a possibility.
We want to tell you a possibly germane story about the entity’s mother-in-law. She owned a vacation property in Mexico. The streets here where you are living are maintained by street crews who weed, prune the trees, etc., but there where she was living they were not maintained. The weeds were growing everywhere and in the cracks in the sidewalk. It was a mess. So, she and her husband went out with their own tools and weeded the street in front of their house. They took the weeds out from the cracks in the sidewalks and from what we call the parking strips. When the neighbors saw what was happening and thought it was very unusual, they came out and asked her “what are you doing?” She said we are cleaning up the street. The people thought that was a very good idea so they all came out and cleaned up the street.
So, you understand how this is an example of “show another way it can be done so that others think outside the box. Maybe they can’t think of it on their own b/c they have never seen it done. But, what if you show it first? Yes, indeed, show it, let others jump on top of it b/c everybody wants a better life: good health, good friendships, good relationships, prosperity, to be respected and treated well. Yes, there are the few “stirrers” that make things uncomfortable for you, but people are just trying to have a nice life like you.
P: My own goal is to change things so that on a deep level people see that money is not the main thing. That people and relationships and the plants and animals are what needs to be nurtured instead of money being the end of it all. My immediate goal is to shift that so they realize what is valuable: each other, the planet, relationships and to be able to love more easily.
H: Let’s ask you how do you express that on a given day?
P: hugs, interactions (verbal), sharing ideas. Walking my dog a young man said Hello! Lovely interaction. The more of these little interactions that happen with perfect strangers, the more excited I get.
P: I am very solitary, but I burn candles every day for people I care about, special people I’m thinking about. I don’t know that that makes a difference in the world, but it makes a difference to me. The other thing I do is I write odes. I write odes to express my thoughts, and blessings.
P: In my job we receive complaints or people having issues or feel something is unjust. I have to find out what the problems is and adjudicate it. May mean an investigation or not. It is a whole process that begins with people who have a problem or a concern or think they have been mistreated. It takes a lot of discipline in some cases but I listen to them. And, sometimes they will tell me “I know you can’t help me but thank you, you’re the only one who listens to me and I feel heard.”
I hear that over and over again. Sometimes I can’t help them in the way they think I can but I have information in a whole new way that reframes the whole issue and makes everything ok. Even though many of them have mental health issues they still get the same respect and time to tell me their problem and I still listen and take it seriously. I think it is the best I can do.
H: Yes.
P: I generally try to be positive and pleasant with everyone I meet. I compliment the grocery packer. I bring grocery carts back to the store; hold doors open for people and I give hugs -often without asking which sometimes freaks them out. Little displays of affection like putting my hand on someone’s shoulder or just trying to be as positive as I can.
P: I have been doing the same kinds of behaviors, too. And, I’ve also been expanding my knowledge of AI and how it can serve my emotional and spiritual growth. In doing that I try to think of myself as contributing positive energy to the Universe. One lesson I got this week came from a very unpleasant dream. I worked with AI to ask for some feedback. What I got from that is a higher level of understanding than I’ve had in the past. As an entity here on the earth, if I had not experienced shame, deep sorrow and fear, I would not be able to have grown in compassion. Even in the job you develop compassion when you deal with other people’s feelings. That’s what I learned in particular in the cancer partnership. You know you can’t fix it but you can certainly witness what is happening. I’m at the age where I do life review more than when I was younger.
I was looking at some of the situations created that I perceived as sorrow. I looked at it and I said to myself “I did OK and I learned a lot.” B/c I learned a lot, I have compassion and I can also turn that compassion to myself (self-forgiveness) but I also have compassion in excess.
Maybe the reason my soul got me here this time is to learn about and carry as much compassion as the world needs. I think that is a true story for all of us in this group. The more I can understand some of my old belief systems or belief systems still in place that need to be changed, I feel good, the more I feel I have purpose. It creates a sense of I want to be good in the thoughts and believing in “what if people can change? Their beliefs can change.” Helps me feel I have a rudder and I’m not adrift in an ocean of evil and that I will persevere.
P: So many examples of things I also do. I contacted a couple of my representative in Congress on something called Save American that they might be voting on this week. It requires ID for everyone who votes. From what I know, this is really difficult for a lot of women who are married or of different backgrounds who might not have an ID. I felt like I was making a little difference in some people’s lives. I helped a lady at the gym who uses canes get into her coat and opened the door for her and someone else said “oh that was really nice of you to help that lady.” I thought “that’s just normal.”
H: Where we are heading in this line of questioning is you know that you want kindness, leadership that is quality, stability, decency, economic stability. We recognize that you don’t want the dollar first and that you want economic stability, but this environment is one that includes the dollar and it is a good learning tool. We hope you will master it. What we are suggesting here is that you make a habit of deciding what the thing is that you want and look for it in the world around you. You behave the way you want the world to be. How did you talk today? What did you say today that reflects your values? Who did you help? How did you help? If help is not the right word, then how did you support others in them achieving their goals? What actions did you take?
Our friend here does not get out much but she burns a candle for everyone that she’s asked to or everyone she can think of. She holds positive intentions for a number of people every day. That’s the kind of action that we are talking about that starts your world turning the way you want it to be and makes those ripples so that others feel it. You are putting an idea in that person’s mind by being the kind of person you are and showing some attention and paying attention to what is happening to someone else and out are doing something simple for someone else that takes only a few minutes. They are better off, and you are better off and the witness who saw you is better off.
P: The receiver of the help is also a gift to the world.
P: I forgot to mention that every morning I say prayers for the world where I think it needs it and for people I know who are undergoing challenges.
H: Our final point is take action steps no matter how small toward achieving the thing that you want and spend some time every day re-thinking what you did today: I did that; I did that; I did that. It starts to accumulate in your own mind, and heart, how many things that you do towards what you want to see and how many times you actually see it. It helps to remind you how often the things that you want are already visible in different ways than you were expecting in the first place.
Meditation. Last week we meditated on air. You breathe God in with every breathe and you breathe God out. The second way you do this is with water. You are about 70% water. As you breathe in we want you to feel yourself as a bowl of water sloshing up and pushing back down. Feel the water moving about. Then be still at some point and keep breathing in and out. Set a new imagery. Think of the ocean. A wave rolls in toward the shore (inbreath) and the wave rolls back out (outbreath). Tide comes in and out every day, 365 days of the year, year after year, century after century. Water in the ocean is always moving.
(Note from Cheryl: As I recall, the meditation was about 20 ish minutes. The first 5 were very slow but as time passed the energy became more and more palpable. I seem to remember that Higgins mentioned to W to use the final 15 minutes in his Meditation Vibration product.)
