Shadows are Rattling Loudly These Days ~ Rainy

Shadows are Rattling Loudly These Days ~ thoughts on polarity

As the Northern Hemisphere of Earth is cycling toward the darkest longest night people are preparing celebrations for the return cycle of the Sun’s light, a micro mirror of a larger cycle known as the Shift of the Ages. Cycles in cycles as Gregg Braden and others have said. Today many people are familiar with the 2012 galactic event and are lighting up the dark messages of fear offering messages of hope and casting off the misnomer the “end of the world” that some still hawk.
 
These sparkles of light are growing just like the strings of holiday lights in dwellings across the lands. They bring a message of potential good change. Perhaps you have observed for many years during the holy season, a huge increase in the display of holiday lights. One could say it is only due to the newer style of lights, much easier to handle, less cost in the purchase and more energy efficient. Lights are being used more and more all year too for other holidays and even just for making a place look inviting at anytime. Could there be another reason we see more lights?

I find it interesting that more and more man made light is used at this darkest time of the year. Humans light up the dark unknown not just for protection, but to show the way and light the path. As everything is reflections, I see a connection to the increasing abundance of sparkles flashing ~ lighting up the ethers ~ shining from human hearts ~ as the end of this Age comes closer.

You might question where are the counter parts of these twinkling specs of light in the realms of war, deceit, abuse, things that darken human souls?

They shine and sparkle in the eternal flame of human hearts.

We are in a cycle of mottled shadows now, perhaps a dark one has passed over you personally or the news has brought yet another message of hate attacking love and you feel hope dimming into apathy.

Maybe you cry what do I do about my hunger or my child killed at the hands of hate. These bad things are real in this earthly dimension, we can’t wish them away. These are the times when we most need to enter the flame of our heart, our divine sparkle and become the light of love. Action is needed to make change so these horrors cease, actions though that counter from and are born from the well of love, the well of hope. The flame of one’s spirit never goes out, form may change but the fire is always lit. Like all fire it needs tending. If we close off, close down our personal flame in the false sense of protection we allow the darker side of the human heart to prevail and then we are likely to act with the shadow entity retaliation, whose chant is – do harm – controlling what we do.

What makes the difference lies within each of us, it is the gift of choosing where to direct our attention. The antidote to the shadow entity apathy, is to turn your sensory attention to bathe in what is still good, turning away from pain. It’s a vibratory world, we absorb what we focus on. When tending sacred fire the fire keeper uses only wood in its natural state free of pollutants. What we put in the sacred fire of our hearts needs to be clear too. As a clear flame of love one is better able to help those in pain. Choosing not to absorb pain does not equate to not caring.

A wise elder said, “The real wars are being fought in the ethers”. The reality of that may be hard to fathom, the explanation cloaked in the languages of the mystery schools and yet it is simple too. Energy follows thought. We manifest nothing without it first being in the etheric form of an idea.

So what can individuals do about the hate flying around the planet? The answer lies inside the human heart. Dissolve the do harm chanter (within and without) with love.

Each human has dominion over their heart. We know when shadows of dismay and fear shroud it and minute to minute make the choice to burn it out with our heart flame or to let it fester. That might seem like a harsh statement, however I believe each person speaks the unwritten language of spirit and whether by sensation, intuition or actual thought knows when they are choosing the light or the dark, Eros or Thanatos, good or bad. When we choose to fight the seductive somnolence of fear with our own light we enter the etheric ranks of warriors for love. This etheric war is ancient, light against dark, love against hate, it’s a reflection of duality, a reflection we see manifested in peace or pain in our human life.

Sometimes I speak about Marshall Stewart Ball, a young man who is trapped in multiple layers of disability to the point he cannot move on his own yet he communicates messages of great love and peace.  Money and wealth are false treasures and only give the illusion of freedom; real freedom is how one chooses to live in their heart, Marshall embodies freedom. 

It is natural to become frightened of what we don’t know especially when it can be misinterpreted or manipulated. What to believe, how to know what is true? In the midst of wars, famines, diseases, a shifting economy, Earth changes, deceitful human practices it’s easy to believe humanity is declining or may even disappear. For many humans and I know for me it has been so ~ deep change hurts, it’s not welcome. We only choose it when there is no other choice. So it is no surprise that humans collectively need a big push to make change to turn the tide of domination, greed and ego, hence the cascade of global hardships. 

Somewhere, sometime, a disconnect from the great hoop of cosmic awareness happened and many humans lost the language of spirit, the light language of love, peace and harmony. It has though remained alive within the heart flame and whispers to us all the time. One just needs to listen with the ears of the heart to hear, to waken and to use the healing power of love.

As we approach the galactic gate more and more love and hate opportunities with starker contrast will present for choice. As we pass through the Gateway of 2012 it offers no magic transmission of love and peace. It is a marker that presents humans with choice, choice as a species of living from a loving stance. The great being Earth will continue to shake sense into us until then. Will we listen? Will humans change?

Feel for your heart flame, your own light, embrace it, nourish it until you feel it in every cell. This tending takes effort at first and sometimes a guide. Use your intuition, that shiver of knowing to discern the best teacher, guide, author, or practice for you to brighten your heart flame.

As we each expand our love light, promoters of unsavory actions will have less to interface with, less to engage with, balance can return and humans can make peace with the dark and dance without fear in the beauty aspect of shadows. Together we can create a better world.

Celebrate the 2012 galactic gateway as a portal of change for humanity.

  1. So eloquently spoken, Rainy. Thank you for this needed message. A welcome reminder that we DO
    have choices to make that can heal ourselves and the imbalance humankind has created. I don’t know that I have read this message more eloquently, succinctly and loving given. I hope it touches the hearts of many.
