I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Q’uo quote comes from February 11, 1996:

We have a two-part question. First, why Hatonn has been overshadowing our group and why Carla felt the need to challenge Hatonn a few sessions ago, and, secondly, could you give us the principle why the seniority of incarnation by vibration is in effect? It rewards those who have done spiritual work successfully but makes it more difficult for those who have not been successful. Even that which they have is taken away, and the lessons become more difficult. If you can’t do the first set of lessons well then it seems unlikely that more difficult lessons will be done well either. When we feel eager to grow and yet there are restrictions around us does that mean blockages from other lives or is that the nature of this illusion to have restrictions around one even when ready and eager to grow?

(Carla channeling)

We are those of the principle of Q’uo. We greet you in the love and in the light of the one infinite Creator. It is a privilege and a blessing, as always, to move among the harmonizing energies of your circle and to share with you in the desire to seek the truth. We happily share our opinions with you with the one request that each keep the powers of personal discrimination sharp and allow only those of our thoughts which find an answering recognition in your hearts to stay with you and to allow the rest to float away on the wind.

We shall deal with these several questions in part separately. We shall speak concerning the instrument’s question about those known to you as Hatonn. The principle which speaks through this instrument, as each knows, is a created collaboration between those of the social memory complex known to you as Ra and that known to you as Latwii. This combined fifth and sixth-density vibration was that which was called to your group at the time of this instrument’s reception of our signal. However, as the one known as B made a decision to establish the residence in order to be a part of this group, week by week, there was a call for the compassion and loving attention which the ones of Hatonn so beautifully personify.

This is the adjusted balance which we feel shall be the appropriate mixing of information and that which you have no real word for in your language that we can find, but that this instrument would call the emotional tone. The call for the one known as Hatonn had been such that it was always, shall we say, aware of these transmissions, for it has a long established contact with this group. However, we have been pleased with the way the new blending of energies matches the call of your particular group as it is made up at this time. The portion of this collaboration which speaks through this instrument is the voice of Latwii. However, both those of Hatonn and those of Ra are able to share in the process of creating that which we offer this instrument.

The perception that this instrument has had of the ones known as Hatonn is, in our opinion, a sign of this instrument’s fastidiousness. We are pleased that this instrument is careful and does challenge those energies and essences which she perceives, whether or not she grasps the reason for their approaching your circle of seeking. We would commend this instrument for its care in attempting to retain a precise tuning. This is greatly appreciated by us.

There were two questions for this session, and the first one was: “First, why Hatonn has been overshadowing our group and why Carla felt the need to challenge Hatonn a few sessions ago?” Q’uo began by saying that Hatonn was a contact that had been channeled by Carla for many years, but that it was those of the fifth density of Latwii that served as the voice for Q’uo and the sixth density of Ra that were the principle of Q’uo. They also said that when B moved to this area and became a member of this meditation group it was his appreciation of the loving nature of Hatonn that called for Hatonn to be present in these sessions. Then Q’uo said that they appreciated Carla’s challenging of the ones of Hatonn as they joined this group at this session, for such fastidiousness in sensing their presence was always helpful.

As an aside to this question and answer I would like to share my experience in working with the Q’uo channelings, that began in January of 1986, and so far I have gotten to the end of 1995, where there has never been a clear statement of which social memory complexes were part of the principle of Q’uo, and in this session all three social memory complexes of Hatonn, Latwii, and Ra are mentioned, but Hatonn is only referred to as an occasional portion of Q’uo. However, on November 28, 2004, Hatonn, Latwii, and Ra are all mentioned as the three social memory complexes that created the principle of Q’uo from Q’uo’s beginning:

T1: We know that Q’uo is composed of three entities in the Confederation, and I would like to know if there is a major speaker, speaking. Thank you.

We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query, my brother. We are composed, as you said, of three groups, one of fourth density, one of fifth density, and one of sixth density, in this instrument’s and our way of describing our relative position and experience. This particular principle was created because this particular instrument has a certain way of tuning and preparing for contact with the Confederation entities. She prays for contact with the highest and best contact that she may handle in a stable and conscious manner. It is a very precise request. The entity whom she tended to receive upon making this prayer, prior to her contact with those of the Ra group, was the Latwii group, and she had received those of Latwii fairly consistently for several years before experiencing the trance contact with those of the Ra group.

As each within this circle is aware, the contact with those of Ra was a very narrow-band contact which was only possible during that window of opportunity when the ones known as Don, Jim, and Carla were all in the circle, and when the one known as Don passed from this third-density experience, the possibility of further contact with this particular entity was ended.

However, this instrument continued to tune and pray in the same manner, and those of Latwii and others within the Confederation, including those of Hatonn, and those of Ra, felt that perhaps the creation of a principle would best respond to this instrument’s very real desire for the highest and best contact of which she was capable. Since those of Ra could not speak with this instrument in a conscious and stable manner, there was no possibility for that social memory complex being the speaker. However, both those of Hatonn and those of Latwii had previously enjoyed sharing the thoughts of those of Ra in a teach/learning circle, and the three groups decided that they would blend into one principle, with the ones known as Hatonn being responsible simply for projecting a vibration of love, of which I feel sure that each of you is aware as we speak. The ones known as Latwii took the responsibility for speaking to this instrument, and the ones known as Ra were part of the process of defining just how to respond to the question that was presented to the principle of Q’uo. So, as those of Q’uo speak, it is those of Latwii who are creating the concepts which this instrument receives and translates into words.

So, my best guess is that perhaps it took between 10 and 18 years for those of Hatonn, Latwii, and Ra to decide to work together as the principle of Q’uo, but that seems like much too long of a time for this kind of a decision to be made by these three social memory complexes.

This instrument requests that we move on to the other topics at this time, and so we shall. The subject of seniority by vibration is a concept which is easily misperceived by one who is attempting to think upon it in a logical manner. This is due to the improper emphasis which your culture places upon the direction of catalytic energy. The principle of seniority of incarnation by vibration is simply that as an entity takes hold of those gifts, talents, and resources with which it entered the incarnational experience and works to maximize the giving of those gifts through the manner of living the efforts and intentions to serve and to offer the perceived gifts as fully as possible, it creates a rhythm of learning, changing, consolidating, and preparing for more learning. This cycle, once perceived by an entity, can be cooperated with by that entity, thereby doubling and redoubling the polarity of the incarnational experience and the efficiency of processing the catalyst received.

This process has virtually nothing to do with the Earthly values. That is, the lessons given for which the gifts are prepared are lessons in loving, in becoming more able to accept love, in the patience that is love’s steely center, and so forth. These are Earthly gifts, but in spiritual terms they move towards the metaphysical processes of spiritual evolution so that the entity which gazes at the world scene and attempts to make sense of the gifts that it has been given with regard to the world scene will surely be confused and stymied, for those things which are accomplished in the career, the working of the daily job, and so forth, are those actions which take place upon the surface of the illusion, whereas the spiritual work is being done through these everyday experiences but tending towards the building not of a worldly success but of the what the one known as B called the discipline of the personality.

So, one who has gained seniority by vibration is one who has taken those gifts that it was given and has attempted wholeheartedly to use them in order to work upon those inner lessons of love, patience, mercy, and compassion. These are the actual riches to be gleaned from the Earthly illusion. The purifying of emotion, the cleansing of the processes of perception—these are the work that tends towards seniority by vibration. These gifts may seem to express in many manifestations, many fruits of labor, many accomplishments, yet the actual vibration of the entity experiencing these processes is the thing at question.

For instance, the one known as B pointed out that while inwardly this entity is experiencing a fairly rapid expansion of the array of tools consciously realized and recognized, its outer experience has been one of needing to be the youngest, the least experienced, and so forth. In Earthly terms the atmosphere of work conducted under these restrictions seems completely against the rhythm of the expansion of consciousness, and yet it is in working with the guise of humility while remaining able to keep the expanded viewpoint that shall make a difference in the entity’s vibration, not any success of an outer nature that could change that vibration, but rather the work done while the outer illusion dances merrily by. This is the heart of the work.

So, gazing upon the outer circumstances and making judgments is guaranteed to be an exercise in folly, metaphysically speaking, for the illusion is designed specifically to confuse and trap the intellect in such a way that eventually it must give up the attempt to make sense of the illusion. We are aware that this group is desirous of serving to the very, very best of its capacity, and we feel that this is the intention to be encouraged, that the attempt personally and the attempt as a group to share in love and service is the heart of that which shall indeed speed the processes of the spiritual evolution of each. For when there is the group that gathers together there is the additional energy generated by the combination of the entities which, as each in this group is already aware, is an energy that is doubled and redoubled far beyond simply the addition of one entity to another.

We are pleased with this group that offers itself in service at this time in terms of its sincere and honest attempt to be the best it can be. We can assure each that the world scene offers a story that has its most helpful points fairly well hidden in the folds of many and various details. It is almost impossible to dwell within the dream and know what lies beyond that dream. This is your situation at this time. This is not a situation we encourage you to escape. This is your appropriate position, not to know or to understand why destiny has offered this lesson or that but rather to gaze at that moment that is the present and to look with complete attention at the wonder, the depth, the infinity of that moment. Love lies within each and every moment of this infinite creation. If the seeking soul can keep its eyes upon that love, if the fainting heart and the overtired brain can remember that love, then the work which will encourage seniority is being done to the best of your capacity.

We encourage each to love, respect and enjoy the dream life that is the incarnation in the shadow world of Earthly life, yet not to expect it necessarily to make sense. We suggest that each not be fooled by what the world view may think in terms of the station you hold in life or what is actually going on. We encourage instead that living desire to seek, to love, to serve. Taste the keenness of hope. Rest in the fullness of faith, and keep the eyes upon the goal, and that goal is the realization of love.

Then Q’uo said that the incarnation by seniority of vibration was using the gifts of the pre-incarnative plan for learning lessons within the incarnation as a means of creating a rhythm of living and serving, that doubles and redoubles the polarizing of its consciousness by using its catalyst. Q’uo continued by saying that these lessons were focused on learning to give and receive love which aids spiritual evolution by using the daily catalyst in a deeper sense and is called the discipline of the personality. Then Q’uo said that the seniority by vibration is increased as one is able to purify their emotions and cleanse their experiences which allows the expanding of the viewpoint spiritually while remaining humble as the outer illusion dances merrily by, and this is the heart of the great work. Q’uo went on to say that attempting to make judgements by looking at the outer experiences was useless in the metaphysical sense because the illusion is designed to confuse the seeker, so they recommended that seekers join together in groups so that each could aid each other in a manner that doubles and redoubles the effectiveness of the seeking process. Q’uo said that it is necessary for us to accept the fact that we cannot know or understand why destiny has brought the variety of situations for us to learn from, so we need to look for love that rests in the infinity of the present moment and to keep the faith that finding that love and being of service to others is the goal of our spiritual journey. On March 7, 2020, Q’uo spoke of the value of faith in pursuing our spiritual journey:

The faith that all shall work out fine is that which is the foundation stone upon which each seeker may build the spiritual journey, for there are no mistakes for any spiritual seeker. Each seeker grows and changes according to an individual rhythm of expression of intelligent energy or the light of the One Creator. Each seeker has the opportunity and the ability to accelerate this path or type of movement along the spiritual journey as it becomes more aware of how faith and will can use the moment to grow. Each moment is pregnant with possibilities. Each moment has a variety of layers of opportunity that can be utilized, if the will of the seeker is strong enough to investigate beyond previous investigations.

If the desire, the will, and the faith are utilized by the seeker in a conscious fashion (so that there is the potential for greater growth, and is seen by the seeker to be a potential that resides within its own being), then the seeker can take this faith, this desire, this will, and apply it to any present moment. So, the fruits of the moment may be more evident to the seeker, and the seeker will not only be fed physically in a manner which propels the body forward, but can be fed spiritually, mentally, and emotionally in a similar fashion, so that there is food aplenty for each portion of the seeker’s spiritual anatomy, shall we say. Thus, the seeker itself can determine the rate of progress in its own spiritual journey, according to how it applies its desire and its will, encompassed within the larger facility of faith.

We would at this time continue this transmission through the one known as Jim. We leave this instrument with thanks in the love and the light. We are Q’uo.

(Jim channeling)

I am Q’uo, and greet each again in love and in light through this instrument. At this time, as is our custom with this group, we would offer ourselves to those who may yet have a query for us. Is there a query at this time?

Carla: At the meeting last week I experienced great flows of energy which just went storming up my spine and falling like cascades of water off my head, my fingers, and toes. It went on for most of the night, and it was delightful. I couldn’t actually do anything with it, and I felt it was coming from B. I feel better when he is around. Could you say anything about it? Is there something you can say as to why it occurs? How can we offer it in a balanced way?

I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my sister. We have some difficulty in speaking directly to this query, for there is the experience which is unusual that has a significance for the growth of at least one entity within this circle of seeking. The experience of the energy moving through your physical vehicle is the experience that has been made available both by the receptivity of your vehicle, its ability to respond to the desire you have shown for a new beginning, and the energies in this circle that have been opened to you through this desire.

There has been the choice upon your part to restrict certain activities and to adopt a new attitude. You, by this choice, have made available the opportunity for assistance, shall we say, from in your estimation any source which offers itself in service. Thus, the one known as B has been available for adding his own energies to this circle of seeking by his own choice, and, through this mutual making of choices, has come the opportunity for each to be available for the further energizing of this group’s seeking in these meditations, each choosing to give and receive that which is most appropriate for each at this time.

We find that beyond this point of our speaking lies information which must at this time remain unspoken due to our desire to maintain the free will of all.

Is there any further query to which we may speak, my sister?

Carla: Yes. I’ll ask Aaron about previous lifetimes, and I imagine that he will be glad to speak about that. I had some feelings that I probably, if this was a balanced energy exchange, then B was probably getting energy also, but it was of a different type, and this was probably the inspirational kind of energy—or “new motherboard,” as he called it—being set up. Am I thinking along balanced lines here?

I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my sister. As we spoke previously there is interesting information available which is of somewhat the nature you have mentioned and does include the feeling of the one known as B that there is a new foundation, shall we say, upon which to build the remaining incarnation, and this new beginning has aided in your own energizing as well. Beyond this point we find a difficulty in speaking further for the aforementioned reasons.

Carla: Yes, let me ask in a slightly different way and see if I can get an answer. Are we doing everything that we can to offer this energy clearly and in a balanced manner?

I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my sister. We feel that you have been most conscientious in attempting to balance and use these newfound energies, and will find further refinements available.

Is there any further query, my sister?

Carla: No, I am done. Thank you very much.

I am Q’uo, and again we thank you, my sister. Is there another query at this time?

B: I am curious about Hatonn’s calling to this particular group. I am curious as to the origination of the call. Was it a call resulting from the blending of the energies of this particular group?

I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my brother. The call was the addition of your presence to this circle in a more, shall we say, stabilized manner. It is those of Hatonn’s estimation that the compassion that they have to offer by their very nature is a quality which would be helpful to your own beingness. Thus, they have responded with their presence.

Is there any further query, my brother?

B: No, not at this time. Thank you.

I am Q’uo, and we thank you, my brother. Is there another query?

R: Was it the same when I joined the circle? I am curious.

I am Q’uo, and am aware of your query, my brother. It is the case, my brother, that when entities who seek the ability to give and receive that quality of love that is most closely aligned with compassion that the entities of Hatonn respond, for it is their hallmark that is able to meet most sufficiently the desire of a new member to feel the inspiration and the compassion together in the kind and quality of messages offered by Confederation contacts in this group, this call which was indeed offered by your presence in this circle some time previously and which those of Hatonn were happy to offer.

Is there a further query, my brother?

R: No. Thank you. I greet the brothers and sisters of Hatonn.

I am Q’uo, and we thank you as well, my brother. Is there another query at this time?

[Side one of tape ends.]

B: [Question not recorded.]

I am Q’uo, and we are gratified, my brother, that you have found a home within this circle of seeking, for we and those of Hatonn value beyond measure each entity which chooses to work in a conscious fashion in a group such as this one, for it is by such combined efforts that each progresses most rapidly in the gaining of the service-to-others polarity. Thus, we join you in the feeling of gratitude.

Is there any further query at this time?

B: No, not from me. Thank you.

I am Q’uo. In closing, then, we would thank each entity present for blending their vibrations into this circle of seeking, for the energies of each present, though at this circle somewhat lower than usual, are yet a glorious sight to behold from our point of view. Such energies may be seen for their variety, their intensity, and their brilliance.

At this time we shall take our leave of this instrument and this group, leaving each, as always, in the love and the light of the one infinite Creator. We are known to you as those of Q’uo. Adonai, my friends. Adonai.

This morning I went outside and spread the eight bales of pine straw on two sides of the Wuthering Heights Mound, the three Azalea bushes by the sidewalk in front of the house, around the Snowball Hydrangeas in front of the house, and around the azaleas that surround the back deck on two sides in back of the house.

This afternoon I blew the leaves from the Tulip Poplar tree behind the bird feeder and the Sycamore tree in the Moss Garden in the back yard into a pile and put them in five garbage cans for yard waste pickup.

From A Book of Days, channeled by Carla L. Rueckert:

September 4

The Deep Ache For Love

I am of the spirit of Jesus the Christ, and I greet you in the full consciousness of that divine Love.

The branches of intellect seem to many to be those holding the most fruit. And, indeed, that vine of connected thoughts grows sturdily and well in the environment of the everyday world. Yet the Spirit of Love is most often found within the homelier, seemingly mundane details of work and play.

How do you apprehend the Love of the living God? With your thoughts? With your heart? Or with an ache so profound that it can be said to come from the roots of being? In this deep ache lies the yearning of Love for Love, for each of you is divine, the son or daughter of the living God. May you seek well and without pride for words or deeds but with that divine growing hunger of Love for itself.

We leave you in changeless peace, now and ever. Amen.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

We come in the name of love and open our hearts, minds, and souls to send love, light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density. We ask that the infinite love, light, and healing energy of the One Infinite Creator heal the hearts of all souls in pain on Earth tonight. May all souls on Earth feel our love, light, and healing energy in their hearts, their minds, and their souls. Amen.
