Greetings, dear ones, from the Brotherhood of Light. We join you once again in print, this text being written for mid-2006. As always, whenever you read this text and share in its energies is appropriate for you, the reader. Each of you, dear snowflakes, are on your own path, and indeed, are creating quite a cumulative whirlwind of change upon your planet!

We congratulate you for getting this far into the Shift process. We assure you that it is almost over (chuckles). Look at how quickly time is flying - the faster it goes, the closer you get to simultaneous time, our time, Now time. As we have pointed out before, you are actually creatures of Now time, have always been, will always be (much laughter) caught in your present moment with no access to your past or future. Or do you? Yes, take that line of time and start bending it, dear ones, bend it at your own pace until the ends meet and merge. Then you will be in the circle of Now time. Take the time, every day, to meditate a bit, to walk a bit, to rest a bit, and allow for your internal changes to take place.

Yes, this planet is setting the stage, like a huge electromagnetic amphitheathre, for all of its players to move up to the next level of energetic accomplishment. In other words, the increasing energies radiating onto the planet, along with her agreement to rise up and change from within, all will affect your biological structure. Your very matter is changing, is clearing, is reforming and rebalancing at a level heretofore unseen by your human civilization. We say this specifically because other races have gone through the ascension process here before, with mixed results within the third dimension. But this time - ah, this time (chuckles) - the planet is shifting. Your collective consciousness, your higher global Human Awareness gave permission twenty-odd years ago for this collaboration between the earth and humanity to unfold.

So, your bodies are changing, with or without your conscious awareness of the process. The majority of populations are still unaware of the specifics of the Millennium Shift, yet all are feeling the pull towards leading more heart-centered, spiritually-balanced lives. Thanks to your global internet and media, much that has been dark and hidden is coming to light. People are starting to question, nay, critique the workings of their governments. More and more people are starting to really see what is going on, how unbalanced the earth's politics truly are. Accountability will become necessary, taking responsibility for what was done and where you are now, must also be embraced. The next most important step will be forgiving it all, cleaning the slate, and starting anew. Sound familiar? (Chuckles). Yes, circles upon circles, that is how we teach. Our last statement applies to politics, yes, but also to the individual, yes, also to the physical clearing process that each must undertake in order to gracefully, painlessly shift.

From our very first communication through this channel, we have spoken about releasing internal pressure from your bodies. We have taught you how to meditate with a loose jaw, to allow your meridians to open, clear pressure and refuel. We have given you a generic prayer to mold as you will, to give permission for Spirit to work with you and work on you in your own physical space. Every step of the Circle of Grace meditation applies to all PEMS levels of life, from the physical to the emotional, mental and spiritual. We ask that you clear your bodies so that you may carry a higher, faster, more brilliant vibration. We ask that you ground these energies above and below, and thus fulfill your highest potential - your collective goal is to spiritualize matter!

Many lightworkers are reaching the climax of their lessons. Abundance is not flowing, life is a huge, endless drag of work, work, work and not enough sleep, you ache all over. Some feel like they are dying, at all PEMS levels. Dear ones, when your energetic system is clogged down to its core (that core being your physical body), how can you make any real progress? How can you materialize and ground the new life, the new talents, the new goals that you seek? How many of you are saying, "I know all that, it's just not working!"

We feel your frustration and your pain. You are probably wrestling with the deepest layers of clearing - your belief systems. Ultimately, your beliefs rule your biology, and many are stuck in the process of replacing ego with humility. If anger, guilt, blame, shame and judgment lessons are still circling back to you, it is time to identify and take responsibility for that which you have created up until now. Lightworkers, it is now time to really get clear, to move past your lessons so that you may help others do the same. Help each other, mirror gently for each other, and work on each other at the physical level to get cleared, balanced and ready for when the masses begin to shift.

If you are still embroiled in drama and complaining that nothing is working, we gently ask, when are you going to DO something at the physical level? Are you listening to your body? Are you resting enough? Are you moving and exercising enough? Are you eating non-toxic food and water? Are you energetically clearing yourself daily? If the answer to any one of these questions is no, there lie your problems. That is what you need to fix, to change, to do in order to move gracefully through the deepening waters of the shift process.

Many people ask, "When is the next portal day? When is the next big influx of energy? When is the best window to meditate and get some healing done?" Dear ones, if you had a daily practice, you would automatically be taking advantage of every energy wave coming in! What are waves to the greater consciousness of the ocean? Superficial adjustments at one layer that reflect energy movement from below and movement from above (air and wind). But the waves themselves are only one small part of the vast depths of the planet's ocean body. You know that trying to control ocean waves is a futile endeavor, you just ride up and down as you encounter them. So, too, we ask you to look at the energetic shift taking place in the same way (of course, chuckles, as above so below!) Don't worry about the incoming waves. What you are learning to navigate are the vast, shifting currents beneath those waves.

Do you follow?
We hope you will.

As the shift draws to its peak, the pressures are growing wider, deeper, and higher. By that we mean that many of you are beginning to feel your auras. And what rises up to your awareness first? The broke parts! (Chuckles) The aches and pains are your energetic blockages, stress and strain trying to release down your meridian system. That system is comprised of your physical nervous system within the body, and the energetic meridians within your auric field. Together, they form the energetic framework of your multi-layered being. To rise from the denser 3D form to the lighter 5D form requires that you shed that 3D density. How? If you've identified your faith, dear ones, released faulty belief systems and absorbed broader mental concepts, worked on clearing and balancing your emotions, wonderful. Now you're down to the core work - clearing and balancing your physical core. Even if you haven't finished all the other work, it still must process though your meridian system, down through the physical core!

Would you cross the ocean in a leaky boat? No, you wouldn't get far. Your body is your Merkabah vehicle, your physicalized electromagnetic blueprint. Your blockages are just wear and tear from this life and past lives, which can be released by diligent meditation (with your jaw open, please!), exercise, sunshine, massage, etc... There are many paths to choose from in the variety of good holistic support available. Fully embracing the teachings and concepts is vital, yes, but will only get you part way up the path. That is why we have offered the Circle of Grace clearing process, to facilitate your ride and make it an easy glide (chuckles).

Remember, this ascension process is designed to bring in your higher self, to become Christ Consciousness in body upon the planet, to create Heaven on Earth. The best part of donning the cloak of mastery is the relief, the relaxing into Divine energy and allowing Spirit to support, guide and lead you in every moment. Dear ones, some of you are still meditating by going up and out of the body, trying to reach distant energies galaxies away, then coming back into your little selves and finding yourself separate again from all that is around you. We ask that you turn your focus within. To quote Lord Sananda in his earthly life as Yeshua ben Joseph, and later as Jesus Christ, "The Kingdom of God is within You." He meant that literally! Within your torso, within your heart, lies your divine spark and connection to Spirit. Within your head, within your brain, lies the potential to carry much more than just your current human awareness. Your connection to Spirit does not lie galaxies away, you carry it inside you!

We have said many times that you are an eternal being, a small part of which is temporarily wired into a carbon-based physical life form. Can you, in your mind's eye, envision an iceberg? The tip peeks out above the water, while its huge mass is hidden beneath. Now, invert that iceberg, see the visible tip projecting downward and its huge body hidden in the clouds. That is what you are, each and every one of you, the physical projection of a small portion of a much larger non-physical, energetic being. You are already eternal. You are already connected to Spirit, or your body would not be alive.

Your task now is to clear your vehicle, plain and simple. Going from denser to lighter form requires a re-wiring of your structure, yes, down to the DNA levels. Fortunately, your bodies are self-directed and don't need your participation in order to function. We are teaching you how to use a built-in function, your self-clearing meridian system, in order to augment your metaphysical progress. Why? The clearer the body, the higher you rise. That means reaching and blending with higher, faster energy waves, like tuning into a new radio station that was never available before. But, since you are going from linear to non-linear form, guess what? There are lots of new stations coming in all at once! Yes, another metaphor for Now time is a radio receiving simultaneous broadcasts, or many stations all at the same time. Information is bombarding this planet in new, heightened energy waves. You are expanding from a uni-dimensional life (sensing one consistent reality) into a multi-dimensional life (sensing many dimensions simultaneously.) What is the first thing you will encounter?

Sensory overload.

At first, the chaos will deepen, confusion will set in, your brain will feel fuzzy as it tries to sort out new sensory data and integrate it with your known concepts of reality. Yes, add to this your physical body changing, mutating within one lifetime down to its genetic structure - that's tiring work! Sleep more, rest more, and most important - don't feel guilty about it! If you can rest for an hour during the day, that will rejuvenate you greatly. If not, how about a half hour? Can you do a half hour in the morning, and again in the evening? You have discovered so many ways to support the physical body, your science has doubled the human life span. Yet that quality of life, dear ones, could be much better. Now that you are growing into your aura, you need to learn how to take care of your expanded body.

As we said earlier, as you start to become sensitized to the presence of your auric layers, the first thing you will encounter is probably pain. You will realize the levels of internal pressure that you are truly carrying, as the heightened planetary energies require that all PEMS body layers begin to lighten and brighten. Yes, the energies incoming will encounter those denser parts of you that need to be moved down and out. One of the most common threads of all contemporary metaphysical works is the exercises -; exercises to meditate, exercises to sense the body layers, exercises to clear dense energy from inside you and around you. How many books have you read, marked those instructional pages and then put away? How many of those methods actually proved comfortable and doable for you?

Our point is this: no matter what your daily practice is, if you have one, God bless. Just begin by saying your prayers out loud, to permit the connection to Spirit to fully, physically take place. Free will zone, dear ones, nobody can intrude upon your life path without permission. Secondly, whatever form of physical clearing you do, whether sedentary or moving, keep your jaw joints open to allow your meridians to release pressure and refuel with new universal energy. In the Circle of Grace work, we liken the clearing process to an oil change for your car. How long and well would your car run if you never, ever changed the oil? Yes, lack of energetic circulation causes your body to wear down, too. We remind you that your nervous system automatically clears internal pressure and renews its flow of fuel while you sleep, that is one of its self-maintaining functions.

But if you clench or grind your teeth while sleeping, your meridian system locks up and cannot flow. If you are carrying pockets of dense blockage from emotional, mental or physical illness, or injury or surgery, those areas have much less energy flowing through them and become difficult to clear. Hence, chronic pain spots develop (or dramas continue to repeat.) Because the rising energies are requiring you to clear, clear, clear, especially from the waist down right now, you will feel pressure backing up behind your chronic blockages. Many people are aching head to toe, and are being diagnosed with fibromyalgia. This illness includes chronic deep muscle and joint pain, chronic fatigue, interrupted sleep patterns, depression, digestive issues, increased sensitivity to stress, light, sound, smells, etc... Sound familiar? Yes, Pre-Ascensionitis! (ref. September 2003 Sedona Journal article, "Symptoms of Pre-Ascensionitis.")

Soaking in a hot bath is very soothing. Doing the Circle of Grace in a hot bath is as powerful as doing a session outdoors in the sun. Both the wet and dry heat help you to relax fully, from your outer skin to your innermost muscle layer. Yes, there are deeper and deeper layers that you can relax, and the more you "sink into yourself", the more effective is your meditation time in clearing and refueling the body.

Imagine with us, for a moment, that you are beginning to meditate. First, relax the jaw until you feel the joints open up. Then focus on your face. You can feel the difference when you relax your facial muscles. Then try relaxing your ears and neck. Yes, different muscles will release. Now try relaxing your eyeballs. Feel those sets of muscles release. Next, release the layer behind your eyes - yes, there is one! If you can't feel that layer, try relaxing your scalp, then go back to the inner layer behind the eyes. Allow your eyes to pulse if they begin to do so, and just be aware of the eye-movement patterns. At first, it may be hard to relax your eyes, but eventually you will be able to release those muscles, and the ones beneath.

The last layer to relax is deep within your head, near the top center of the brain. Imagine releasing all tension deep within your head, giving your pineal gland space and permission to grow. Getting familiar with the insides of your body, and learning what it is trying to tell you, will not only be your shortest path to healing, but a direct route to Spirit Within. Yes, the Kingdom of God is Inside You! (Chuckles.) Developing an understanding of your inner workings, and being able to consciously affect your internal systems, is the biggest tool we offer - a tool that you can pick up and use for yourself, on and within yourself, by yourself. To be able to clear pain and refuel your energetic body layers is simply common sense for an energetic being. Dear ones, universal energy does not come in pill form. In order to "drink in" and assimilate the higher energies, your bodies must be able to digest this new hi-test fuel!

Each person develops metaphysically at their own pace for many reasons. Everyone's electromagnetic system has its own wiring, its own history, its own blockage pattern, and its own potential. Some people are blocked at the physical core, and can progress only so far in their healing. Some are blocked at the emotional level, and though they may feel healthy, their emotional blockages keep them repeating the same dramas. Some are blocked at the mental level, and cannot integrate the larger concepts into their own personal framework of reference. Others are still questioning their faith, which impedes the development of self-love and self-worth. Each layer of your energetic body will display its blockages in different sets of behavior patterns, which attract specific life dramas to learn those lessons.

So here's the silver lining, for we don't mean to depress you with a long litany of things going wrong for people! (Chuckles.) The Circle of Grace clears all levels of the body simultaneously. We will broaden this statement by saying that any type of regular meditation done with full relaxation and open jaw joints will allow the body to repair itself. Our aim is not to impose our teachings upon you, or try to convince you that our way is better than another. By giving you the two key elements of verbalized prayer and open jaw joints, we offer you the main tools to heal yourselves.

Here's the other valuable gift that a daily practice carries for you, and we want you to understand this clearly. Your nervous system is your body's internal communication system, linking your brain to all your other parts, linking those parts to each other, as well as telling your conscious mind what's happening in the body. The health of your nervous system affects you at all levels, because it links all the levels together. We have stated before that every system within the body is mirrored by a complementary system in your aura. Your energetic meridians perform the same function as your nervous system, but while your nerves are your internal network, what do you think your auric meridians link you to?

Yes, the outer worlds! The planetary grids, the galactic grids, the cosmic grids. That is how you form the collective human consciousness. Did you ever wonder what that is, exactly? Where it is? How it functions? How it is formed and maintained? How it grows? The clearer each of you becomes, the higher the human awareness rises. When we stated that the Circle of Grace clearing process works on all levels simultaneously, we weren't kidding! That was a literal statement. And so is this - your energetic meridians are woven into the outer dimensions, and your nervous system is wired into your inner dimensions. This system, in its totality, connects your Spiritual parts to your physical parts. This connecting system is vital to clear, in order for you to bring your higher self presence down into your body. The physical body must be clear enough to vibrate at that higher level, or the full merge cannot take place.

The clearer you are, the more you expand into the higher dimensions.

Do you follow?
We so hope you will.

Our main message, as ever, is to remind you of your incredible potential. Be kind to yourself through this process, forgive yourself each time you stumble. Love yourself enough to try again. If you can't sleep at night and feel restless (chuckles, we so love puns), try cleaning out a drawer or sort though a pile of magazines. Tackle one small, physical thing that will lighten and brighten your surroundings. If you're too tired to move, simply roll onto your back, put a pillow beneath your knees, relax your jaw, and call us in for a healing session. You can also curl up on your side with three pillows - one beneath your head, one to hug to your chest, and one between your knees. That extra bolstering will allow you to fully relax your muscles, and go within.

Inside you is where you will find us, dear ones, waiting to drain your pain and fill you with grace. There you will find your proof that God truly exists, and exists within you. When you meet us within, you expand into All That Is.

All is One, remember? (Chuckles.) And so it is already done.
