This is an excerpt of spiritual message which my sister, ahanna, passed along to me... Read just a little. And if you like it, a little more. And if it speaks to you, a little more yet. And if you find it addresses your innermost needs, read it all. And if you're like me, and it can possibly save your life, start memorizing its core truths.

FACING AND CLEARING YOUR FEARS AS WE BIRTH THE NEW AGE

Leslie Temple-Thurston

As the events of the past...weeks have unfolded, so too has our consciousness been initiated and begun unfolding into a new level of being. Vastly and often violently contrasting states have passed
through our awareness. We have been shattered, faced with intense states of tragedy seldom seen in recent years and which may be completely new to many of you. We have also been taken into new levels of spiritual vibration such as we have not seen before either....

So while we have much to be grateful for and celebrate I feel that I must address what is happening right now. At this point of the initiation the shadow is starting to come up. Everything too dense to be part of the New Paradigm is coming up to be looked at and let go of.

Fear seems to be the most abundant piece of shadow moving through us and through the collective unconscious right now, and it seems important that we address this issue so that our consciousness and thus our lives, stay stable and balanced.

Fear makes consciousness contract -- our muscles tense and our bodies contract, our heart rate speeds up, using more energy than usual; we don't sleep properly because we are processing our shadow while we sleep and we become easily and quickly fatigued. If we feel that we are in real or immediate danger we tend to draw on our supplies of adrenaline and our system becomes steadily weakened. Contracting consciousness also shuts down parts of the mind so that we can become slightly dysfunctional, leaving us to run our automatic patterns. Our spiritual awareness can also contract and diminish with the
contracting consciousness, since new information is the first to be forgotten and as we fall back on old and thus easy ways of being -- we are left to tread the old familiar pathways in the limited mind. All too often we return to old patterns to find comfort and support -- addictions may return and we further weaken ourselves.

As I write today I see that there is more fear and it is reaching deeper into our negative ego than I can remember seeing for a long time, maybe ever. Since you may not be as deeply aware of it as I am, this is a reminder to you to look inward and deal with it. Here is the reason.

When you have unconscious fears and they just sit there, your outer life will begin to suffer. Remember that everything in your world is a reflection of your inner state. This is because your outer life is a solidified version of your inner consciousness. This is something hardly anyone knows -- so those around you will be acting differently. Don't be tempted to "follow the crowd". If the inner is not clear and especially if it is contracting, in the way that fear does to awareness, then your world will contract too and you may be on a downhill slide -- especially spiritually, creatively and financially.

One of the most intense fears that I feel in the collective right now is the fear of scarcity and its side kicks, resource-less-ness, destitution and death. Believe it or not, this is the cause of the calamity we see around us, in the first place....

What is happening is that the shadow that caused the current situation in the first place, is now coming up to be cleared. And it needs to be nipped in the bud because if you don't get clear on it now you will find that the fear becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy again and again for you personally.... So, if this applies to you, (look deep) process the fear of scarcity and of destitution (opposites are abundance, prosperity and fullness) because that is what I'm feeling is really up right now.

There are two ways to stay out of the contraction. One is to work at holding a spiritually clear, upbeat state, which you do by being as fully spiritually impeccable as you know how to be, listening deeply within, and the other is by processing your shadow issues to clear them and let go.

Now more than at any other time you need to be vigilant about witnessing what is passing through your mind, saying "Neti, neti, tat twam asi", (I am not the mind, I am the Self, the One) processing it, taking care of your body so as not to stress it too much, and doing the non self-destructive things that uplift you.

....I suggest building your light and vitality with things like spending time in nature and gazing, or gazing with a yantra to increase your energy and quiet the mind. Also streamlining your routines, cleaning house -- physical and mental, writing in your journal and exercising -- stretching especially minimizes the contraction. Watching your awareness to see where you have contracting (limiting) thoughts and processing them. Also the practice of generosity and selflessness breaks the places in us where we contract in fear.

Meditation and prayer are a must, now more than ever. Remember to have faith in the support of the invisible realm -- call it in.

The mass mind is generating huge shadow right now. In the bid to be patriotic, positive and optimistic everyone is repressing the shadow hugely, plus, the initiation that happened is bringing up stuff. Those of you who are opened up to the unconscious will have to watch this so that you don't get caught on it and make it your own. If you have to process this stuff of the collective -- it is an act of love that
benefits everyone, so do it willingly. Knowing that will inspire you I'm sure.

Above all, stay in your heart and do whatever it takes for YOU to keep your heart open and flowing and your awareness of Truth at the surface. Don't judge, love all equally.
