I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the quote comes from November 28, 2004:

The question today has to do with the relationship between love and fear. We are told that there is a relationship, and that if we can learn how to find the balance in this relationship, that we can help love to overcome fear. Could Q’uo tell us the relationship between love and fear?

(Carla channeling)

We are those of the principle known to you as Q’uo, and we greet you in the love and in the light of the one infinite Creator, in Whose service we come to you this day. It is a privilege and a blessing for us to be called to your circle of seeking to offer our thoughts on the relationship between love and fear. We thank you for this privilege and would ask of you that you use your discrimination in listening to our thoughts, being sure not to take up any thought of ours with which you do not completely resonate. For not all of our thoughts will hit the mark. We ask you to be very careful to leave behind any thoughts that you do not particularly care for. This will enable us to share our thoughts freely without being concerned that we are infringing on your free will or disturbing the rhythm and rightness of your own process. We thank you for this consideration.

The query that you ask this day is at the heart of the movement from your present third-density world and experience to the fourth-density world of Love. You dwell at this time in a density that is attempting to learn what it is to love unconditionally. In the next density, the density of love and understanding, the atmosphere is one of unconditional love. It may seem to be paradise, standing in third density and thinking about living in unconditional Love. And certainly, relatively speaking, it is paradise to dwell consciously in the atmosphere of total acceptance. However, the interplay betwixt love and fear continues in fourth density as the shadows, those shadows that you now experience in third density, are penetrated. That dynamic continues because, as light is brought into the darkness, it reveals more subtle patterns of shadow and light, so that the dynamic continues and deepens. As you move forward in the process of spiritual evolution, you will find yourself continuing to uncover areas that were previously unknown to you within the very complex pattern of your total personality. So, this is not a question that will go away as you learn more. It is a question that will deepen and intensify, for there is no end to the mystery of this dynamic between love and fear.

In the world of ideas, qualities like love and fear are entities. To put a face and a body to love is perhaps to imagine a feminine figure, loving and maternal, with open arms and an open heart and a willingness to embrace. To put a face and a body to fear is perhaps to imagine a male figure clad in an enveloping cloak in which are gathered all of the treasures that this figure is attempting to hold tightly to himself. We describe them in this way for two reasons: firstly we wish to spark your own imagination, for it is instructive to think upon what love looks like to you and what fear looks like. But also we describe them in this fashion because there is a natural dynamic betwixt the feminine and the male principles and in the yin, or feminine, aspect, there is the expansiveness, the generosity, and that quality of unconditional love that is personified, say, in the image of Mother Mary, the Madonna, or Quan Yin, or Mother Earth, or mother nature. In the yang or male aspect of creation as a whole, there is the flexing of muscle and the contracting around ideals and ideas and those ideologies that give rise to action.

We have said before that your culture, as a whole, is overbalanced towards the male principle and has, as this instrument would put it, gotten stuck in a repetitive cycle of male energy that is aggressive and, in many ways, based upon fear and the determination to respond to that fear by acquiring and controlling resources and power. Those who are in power within your various nation-states have many good reasons for these aggressions, these acquisitions, and this use of power, saying that is for the benefit of all. And yet, if one examines the heart of such concepts, the energy is wrapped up in fear and in contraction. So, the surface of your culture is caught in that contracted state where there is a constant concern for safety and security and a constant quest for having sufficient resources to meet the future.

[The telephone answering machine is heard.]

We are those of Q’uo, and are again with this instrument. We apologize for this delay; however, this instrument was distracted by the telephone message.

The ways of fear are insidious, and they have become established within your culture to the point that the natural responses of most entities to the needs of the individual or the society are almost instinctively contracted and fear-based. There is little or no precedent within your leaders or within your role models for gazing at a situation in terms of trust, faith, or love but rather an almost inevitable bias towards gazing at a situation from the standpoint of concern, worry, projection into the future, and contraction around these concerns and worries and projections. It is a time for your peoples which expresses the energy of that stuck, male domination. And we do not mean this in terms of sexuality, for many are the men among your peoples who are very able to express feminine energy in their thinking and their actions and many are the female entities at this time who are experiencing their incarnations from the standpoint of fear and contraction. We speak instead of the dynamic betwixt yin and yang. The question then becomes how to free both men and women from the strictures and the limitations of the masculine viewpoint.

The group question for this session was: “The question today has to do with the relationship between love and fear. We are told that there is a relationship, and that if we can learn how to find the balance in this relationship, that we can help love to overcome fear. Could Q’uo tell us the relationship between love and fear?” Q’uo began their reply by saying that the query that we ask today is at the heart of the movement from our third-density world to the fourth-density world of love, and we dwell in a density that is attempting to learn what it is to love unconditionally, and in the density of love and understanding the atmosphere is one of unconditional love so that it may seem to be paradise as we stand in third density and think about living in unconditional Love, but the interplay between love and fear continues in fourth density as the shadows that we experience in third density are penetrated, and that dynamic continues because, as light is brought into the darkness, it reveals more subtle patterns of shadow and light, so as we move forward in the process of spiritual evolution, we will find ourself continuing to uncover areas that were previously unknown to us within the very complex pattern of our total personality, and this is not a question that will go away as we learn more since it is a question that will intensify, for there is no end to the mystery of this dynamic between love and fear. Then Q’uo said that in the world of ideas, qualities like love and fear are entities so that to put a face and a body to love is to imagine a feminine figure with open arms, an open heart, and a willingness to embrace, and to put a face and a body to fear is to imagine a male figure dressed in a cloak in which are gathered all of the treasures that this figure is attempting to hold tightly to himself, and Q’uo described them in this way for two reasons: firstly they wished to engage our imagination, for it is helpful to think upon what love looks like to us and what fear looks like, but also they described them in this way because there is a natural dynamic between the feminine and the male principles and in the feminine aspect there is the unconditional love that is personified in the image of Mother Mary or Mother Earth, and in the male aspect of creation as a whole there is the contracting around those ideologies that give rise to action. Q’uo went on to stay that our culture is overbalanced towards the male principle and has gotten stuck in a repetitive cycle of male energy that is aggressive and based upon fear and responding to fear by controlling resources and power, and those who are in power within our various nation-states have many good reasons for the gaining and use of power saying that it is for the benefit of all, but if we examine the heart of such concepts, the energy is wrapped up in fear and in contraction, so the surface of our culture is caught in that state where there is a constant concern for safety and a quest for having enough resources to meet the future. Q’uo continued by saying that the ways of fear have become established within our culture to the point that the natural responses of most of us to the needs of the individual or the society are contracted and fear-based, and there are few examples within our leaders for gazing at a situation in terms of faith or love but a bias towards gazing at a situation from the standpoint of worry about the future and contraction around these worries, and it is a time for our people which express the energy of male domination, but Q’uo did not mean this in terms of sexuality, for many men  in our culture are able to express feminine energy in their thinking and actions, and many women are experiencing their incarnations from the standpoint of fear and contraction, so Q’uo spoke of the dynamic between yin and yang, and the question then is how to free both men and women from the limitations of the masculine viewpoint. On April 11, 2009, Q’uo spoke of the feminine and male energies:

We would turn to the basic concept that the male energy is that which reaches, the feminine energy is that which awaits the reaching. The male energy is that which seeks to know, the feminine energy is that which, by direct insight and intuition, already knows.

It is as if the male principle hungers and thirsts for the direct awareness of the one infinite Creator, yet with all his heart, with all of his energy and strength, with every priestly attribute, the male principle is denied the Book of Life.

The feminine principle, on the other hand, dwells in a state of rest, aware in a direct way of the energies of infinity and eternity. The moon sings through the blood of the woman. The cycle of the seasons echoes in her and to the biological feminine is given intimate awareness of the ocean of life as she conceives and carries new life within her.

When you think about how it feels to be fearful, perhaps you may see that, involved in most experiences of fear-based thought, there is the habit of projection into the future. The one known as T2 and the one known as Jim were both speaking earlier of thinking ahead to jobs that need to be done or conversations that need to be held or situations that may arise. And the one known as Jim was speaking of the difference between positive projecting and negative projecting. In the sense of positive projection into the future, there is no projecting beyond what could be called architectural or structural projection. And we would offer the example that the one known as Jim has often given of how this entity would prepare for a pole vault during the field games of his school days by imagining and visualizing, with great integrity of detail, every step of running with the pole to the point where the pole was planted and the body weight was levered and lifted and the pole was allowed to lift the body up over the bar and then the rotation would be imagined and the successful dismount. And this entity would repeat this visualization, say, before going to bed and upon awakening, those times when he was most able to be in a very magical and focused frame of mind, so that by the time the one known as Jim came to the actual games and was ready to make his pole vault, he was relaxed and confident, having done this pole vault many times in his imagination. This is positive projection.

Negative projection, on the other hand, is far easier to describe because each of those in this circle of seeking has had the conversations in the mind that will be difficult or are expected to be difficult, and has experienced that repetition of thought where one begins to think, “Well, what if something happens, then what shall I say?” And then one continues thinking in a circular way again, “Well, what if this happens, then what shall I do?” simply riding that cycle around a circular course, again and again. In truth, such imaginings do not improve the way that such a conversation will actually go, because there is not simply the self involved in the equation but also the other self. And no matter how many imaginings one has done about what people will say, in the actual conversation, there is always a new and unique twist to how things turn out. And all of the vain imaginings fall away before the actual person and the actual conversation. Perhaps the most tragic outcome of such vain, circular imaginings would be that one renders oneself incapable of hearing the actual conversation because one has been deafened by one’s expectations.

We would not discourage entities from looking into the future when it seems appropriate. What we would encourage, however, is the choice of positive projection, of imaging the graceful and efficient way to do something that needs to be done, imagining only your own actions and seeing them as completely successful. This is an excellent way to create positive expectation and a sense of confidence within yourself. The one known as Carla, who is the instrument at this session, was speaking earlier of how she could not see a way to complete her tasks in the situation in which she finds herself. This is because she is not able to use positive visualization, since she does not know what she can expect from herself. When there is a vacuum in a positive situation, it is very tempting to substitute negative projection and simply worry and be concerned about how the future will pan out.

Wewould simply suggest that, unless the concern is turned from worry into a dispassionate and calm review of possibilities for solutions, innovations that may improve the picture and so forth, there is no positive or constructive use for the worry. It is difficult simply to take one’s worry and concern and lay it down. Yet, indeed, that would be our suggestion. Realize that fear has come to visit and has offered you a gift. Whether it is wrapped up in a plain brown paper bag or whether it is gift-wrapped and has a pretty ribbon, as concern sometimes has, it is, nevertheless, a package of fear. Such packages do not need to be opened. They can be laid aside and neglected while you, having rejected the fear, simply move onto other thoughts and concerns.

Then Q’uo said that when we think about how it feels to be fearful we may see that this involves the habit of projection into the future, and that T2 and Jim were speaking earlier of thinking ahead to jobs that need to be done in future situations, and Jim was speaking of the difference between positive projecting and negative projecting, and in the sense of positive projection into the future, there is no projecting beyond what could be called structural projection, so Q’uo gave the example that Jim has often given of how he would prepare for a pole vault during track and field games of his school days by visualizing every step of running with the pole to the point where the pole was planted, and the body weight was lifted, and the pole was allowed to lift the body up over the bar, and then the rotation would be imagined and the successful dismount, and he would repeat this visualization before going to bed and upon awakening, those times when he was most able to be in a very focused frame of mind, so that by the time he came to the actual games and was ready to make his pole vault, he was relaxed and confident, having done this pole vault many times in his imagination, so this is positive projection. Q’uo went on to say that negative projection is far easier to describe because each of us has had the conversations in our mind that are expected to be difficult where we begin to think, “Well, what if something happens, then what shall I say?” And then we continue thinking in a circular way again, “Well, what if this happens, then what shall I do?” and we continue cycling these thoughts again and again, but such imaginings do not improve the way that our conversation will go because there is not just ourself involved in the experience but also the other self, and no matter how many imaginings we have done about what people will say, there is always a unique twist to how things turn out so that all of the vain imaginings fall away before actual person and conversation occur, so perhaps the most tragic outcome of such circular imaginings would be that we render ourself incapable of hearing the actual conversation because we have been deafened by our expectations. Q’uo continued by saying that they would encourage our choice of positive projection, of imaging the graceful and efficient way to do something that needs to be done, imagining only our own actions and seeing them as completely successful because this is the way to create a sense of self confidence within ourself, and  Carla could not see a way to complete her tasks because she is not able to use positive visualization since she does not know what she can expect from herself, so when there is a vacuum in a positive situation, it is tempting for us to substitute negative projection and worry about how the future will play out. Now Q’uo said that they would suggest that there is no use for us to use worry unless our concern is turned from worry into a calm review of possibilities for solutions that may improve the outcome, but it is difficult to take our worry and lay it down because fear has come to visit and has offered us a gift, and such gifts do not need to be opened, so they can be laid aside while we can move onto other thoughts. On March 26, 1995, Q’uo spoke of the value of self-confidence:

When an entity is comfortable with the basic questions of who she is, what she basically believes in, and where she considers her mission to be leading her, then such a person comes to the task of communication with a feeling of self-confidence. This underlying feeling is that which is to be prized and that for which it is well to work, for pure truth lies always in the area between any two entities rather than in the one or in the other. Even if they agree, yet, still, the truth itself cannot be captured.

The one known as R was saying earlier that it is difficult to see how love and fear are two sides of the same coin. We began speaking of love and fear as entities, qualities in the Platonic sense, the world of ideas. And this is a very valid and real world where love and fear do indeed have infinite and ever-ongoing lives, as long as they are reflected in the hearts and the minds of those moving through the illusion of incarnation. However, it is easier to see the relationship between love and fear if we move from contemplating love and fear as pure entities and look at them as applied in the lives of each of you, so that they are not entities upon their own but they are rather a dynamic of choices between which you may choose as you encounter catalyst and find yourself making a choice. When you come to a cusp, and are looking at an issue that is yours to look at, whether it is the right use of time, the right use of resources such as money, or any other issue, you come to the issue in some state of imbalance or bias. This instrument was speaking of her own fears earlier when she said that she had, consciously, to choose to substitute faith for fear. She had, consciously, to realize that all is well and perfect and when she did that, she made a new reality in which fear had no part.

The coin itself, with love on one side and fear on the other, is you yourself and what you think is important. You are the treasure here. You are the coin of the realm, shall we say. You are a thing of infinite value, and when you have a concern, if you reach, with hope and trust and faith, you are reaching into the qualities of love. If instead you approach your issue by contracting into worry and projection, then your choice is fear. Shall you expand around an issue or shall you contract around an issue? That is your choice. Note that the energies of expansion are locked into the present moment. They do not drift into projections of the future or memories of the past. In the world of love, one begins with the knowledge that all is well. And this pulls one into focus in the center of the present moment. In truth, as we said earlier, it almost seems negligent or criminal within the society in which you find yourself to approach issues from a standpoint of love. It does not seem to be prudent or sensible to stay in the present moment, and yet anything but the present moment is an illusion of mind. All that is truly yours to do with, to exert control over, or to make choices within is this present moment.

So, if you take that image of the self in the present moment as the coin, and look to see what the heads and tails of that coin are, archetypically speaking it is very clear and shining in its simplicity. On one side is love, on the other side is fear. On the one side is expansion into an infinite present with infinite possibilities; on the other side is contraction into a knot and the determination that stems from that contraction to control, to be aggressive, and to make things safe. And this involves one in endless projections into the future and endless projections into the past in order to justify the projections into the future.

When one visits in a hospital, one may well be able to sense the presence of a kind of dark energy that seems somehow to be a part of the atmosphere of this place of supposed healing. This is because there are unseen entities from your inner planes that are negative in nature and that feed upon fear and pain. In any place where there is suffering, these entities will cluster and eat that energy that is coming off of the people that are suffering. When you yourself enter into the contraction around fear concerning an issue, you are, yourself, producing food that is very tasty for these unseen entities. And if your habit solidifies and deepens, so that you are constantly running fear-based thoughts and dwelling in the lands of worry and projection into an unsightly and worrisome future, you are solidifying a habit that will increasingly limit your ability to relax and enjoy the present moment.

Now Q’uo said that it is difficult to see how love and fear are two sides of the same coin, and in the world of ideas this is a world where love and fear have infinite and ever-ongoing lives, as long as they are reflected in our hearts and the minds as we are moving through the illusion of incarnation, but it is easier for us to see the relationship between love and fear if we move from contemplating love and fear as pure entities and look at them as applied to our lives so that they are not entities upon their own, but they are choices which we may choose between as we encounter catalyst so that we are making a choice, and we are looking at an issue that is in a state of imbalance we may need to do as Carla did and choose to use faith instead of fear because all is well, so we can create a new reality in which fear has no part. Q’uo went on to say that the coin itself, with love on one side and fear on the other, is what we think is important because we are of infinite value, and when we have a concern, and if we reach with trust and faith, we are reaching into the qualities of love, but if we approach our issue by contracting into worry, then our choice is fear, so our choice to expand around an issue, or to contract around an issue, and the energies of expansion are locked into the present moment because in the world of love, we begin with the knowledge that all is well, and this pulls us into focus of the present moment even though it seems criminal within our society to approach issues from the standpoint of love, and yet anything but the present moment is an illusion of our mind, and all that is truly ours is to make choices within is this present moment. Q’uo continued by saying that if we take that image of ourself in the present moment as the coin, and look to see what the heads and tails of that coin are, archetypically speaking, it is clear that on one side is love and the expansion into the infinite present moment of possibilities, and on the other side is fear of contraction into control and making things safe, and this involves us in endless projections into the future and into the past in order to justify the projections into the future. Then Q’uo said that when we visit a hospital, we may be able to sense the presence of dark energy that seems to be a part of the atmosphere of this place of  healing because there are unseen entities from our inner planes that are negative and that feed upon fear and pain, and these entities will eat that energy that is coming off of the people that are suffering, and when we contract around fear concerning an issue, we are producing food that is tasty for these unseen entities, and if our habit solidifies and deepens, so that we are running fear-based thoughts and dwelling in the lands of worry, we are solidifying a habit that will increasingly limit our ability to relax and enjoy the present moment. On March 20, 1991, Q’uo described the nature of the present moment:

Worry not about that which is projected from the present moment into that which shall be a future moment. Do and be in this moment and allow each succeeding moment to be created from the harmony of this moment. It is natural for entities within your third-density illusion to move from the present moment and to reminisce about those previous experiences and to project those that may occur in your future, for the present moment is that which is the most illusory and difficult to comfortably place oneself within, for all of one’s life, then, is contained within that immediacy of experience which the present moment surrounds. And for most entities who have not consciously considered the purpose of the life pattern, the present moment is that which shall be escaped from. Thus, we would recommend that you share your love at each present moment when it is felt and allow the moment to be enough unto itself.

Tomove away from these habits of contraction is to move from shadow into sunlight. We do not say that this journey from shadow to sunlight is going to be an easy one. It flies in the face of your cultural training to rely on trust and faith. There are many, many times in each day when you have the opportunity to move into worry. We can only encourage you to do as the known as T2 said, to remain somewhat centered and focused, more so than your everyday state; to be somewhat in a meditative state as you move through the moments of your day. For it is just in these tiny moments that the opportunities to make the choice between love and fear appear. The challenge is to be aware, when those moments arrive, so that you can stop yourself from being triggered into fear and the contraction around fear.

We are not encouraging you to lose all fear in dangerous situations. We are not encouraging you to stop steering your car away from an oncoming vehicle simply because you are not afraid. We would encourage you to avoid the oncoming vehicle, certainly. It is at the level of being concerned the next time you get in your vehicle that this will happen again, that we encourage you to choose to trust the moment and not to project into an uncertain future. At this moment all is well and if you must look into the future then look with hope. Think to yourself, I might be surprised at how well this will go. Visualize positively, if you must go into the future and whenever possible we encourage you to remain at peace and at rest and very alert and watchful for the universe is speaking to you.

One concept we would share with you in this regard is wrapped up in a phrase that this instrument knows from her study of the Holy Bible. It is a quote, “Be not afraid, for help is near.” Help is always very near. The Spirit is with you at all times and in all places, nearer to you than your breathing, closer to you than your eyes or your hands. You are truly cherished and loved…

[Side one of tape ends.]

…not because you have done something good, but because you are you, and you are precious to the Creator. Agents of spirit are in your heart and speaking within your mind but, more than that, all of creation is abuzz with awareness of you and your needs. Watch and see what images come to you; what animals, birds, and tiny creatures cross your path that may have meaning to you and may have a message for you. Begin asking the creation around you for hints and clues. Begin expecting them and the creation will speak to you in ever-increasing ways.

This instrument is informing us that we must leave this topic and ask for other queries at this time, and we shall leave you with just one more thought on this subject. The answer to this question is a part of your nature. The answer to what Love is lies within you, now. For your nature is Love. Love created you, and you are a spark of that infinite Love. In many ways, spiritual evolution is a process of allowing the real you to come out of all the wrappings and cultural training and old habit. How you have been beaten down by what others have told you, how others have seen you, and so forth! Casting aside assumed wisdom is sometimes a very difficult and lengthy process. But the truth is speaking within you now; love is powerful within you now. So, turn your ears inward to the silence of that heart within and listen for the footsteps of the One Who comes in Love.

Q’uo said that when we move away from habits of contraction we are moving from shadow into sunlight, and they said our journey is not going to be an easy one because it not a part of our cultural training to rely on trust and faith, and there are many times in each day when we may move into worry, so Q’uo encouraged us to remain centered so that in the meditative state as we move through our day, for it is in these tiny moments that our opportunities to make the choice between love and fear appear, and our challenge is to be aware when those moments arrive, so that we can stop ourself from being triggered into fear. Q’uo went on to say that they are not encouraging us to lose all fear in dangerous situations, but they did encourage us to trust the moment, and not to project into an uncertain future because at this moment all is well, and if we must look into the future, then we should look with hope and think how we may be surprised at how well this will go, and remain at peace and be alert, for the universe is speaking to us. Then Q’uo said that one concept they would share with us was that help is always very near because the Spirit is with us at all times, and we are truly loved…and we are precious to the Creator, and that agents of Spirit are in our heart and speaking within our mind, and all of creation is abuzz with awareness of us and our needs so that we should begin asking the creation around us for hints and clues in the form of animals, birds, and tiny creatures that cross our path that may have a message for us and begin expecting them, and the creation will speak to us in ever-increasing ways. Q’uo completed their reply by saying that the answer to what Love is lies within us, for Love created us, and we are a spark of that infinite Love, and spiritual evolution is a process of allowing our real nature to come out of all the cultural training and old habits of how we have been beaten down by what others have told us, and we should cast aside assumed wisdom which is sometimes a difficult and lengthy process, but the truth is speaking within us now, and love is powerful within us, so we should turn our ears inward to the silence of our heart, and listen for the footsteps of the One Who comes in Love. On June 5, 1983, Hatonn described what Love is:

The experience of finding that Love is rare. Even so, Love is so close, and so near, and so transparent, and so powerful that it will pick up your life and move it at an ever-increasing acceleration towards truth. The reason for this is that people expect Love to mean something, a physical thing, a mental experience, an emotional onslaught, a sweet peace, the great “Aha!” of philosophy. Whatever people expect, it is not what Love is, because Love is in this moment, and has been in every moment that you have experienced this day.

As we speak to you, the moments tumble by, numberless, limitless, thousands and thousands of moments. Can you reach out and grasp even the tiniest moment filled with Love? Ah, you can feel that about which we speak because you are becoming tuned to Love, you are resonating with Love, you are being filled with Love at this moment, and you become thereby a powerful person. But it is now another moment. And when you are not sitting in meditation, you are often in the situation of manifesting the Love that is in the moment. Now you know why we urge meditation. Now you can feel the Love of the moment, be taken by the rush of the wind of Love, be stormed and overcome and be in the moment. And there are those who are in that moment for a short period of your time, and there are those who find that moment and do not leave it for hours, or weeks, or years as you measure time. But you choose to come out of meditation and go about your daily life. Now you see how the choice of what you decide affects so many other choices in your life’s experience.

At this time we would open this meeting to further queries, if there are any. Is there a further question at this time?

T1: I have a question. May I speak?

We are those of Q’uo, and we encourage you to speak, my brother.

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.

May we answer you further, my brother?

T1: Thank you. A very detailed answer.

Q’uo: We thank you, my brother. Is there a question at this time?

T2: Yes, I had a question. Just before the other question I had again started to think as to this evening, dealing with folks that I have to deal with this evening, and immediately it popped into my head, “Please, don’t focus on negative, fearful aspects of anything involved with this situation. Strictly attempt to think of the other people and what I can do to make them more comfortable with the situation.” And I think my question to you is, does this thought come from you at that moment ,or is this a thought of my all-mind, or is it some combination of both?

We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query, my brother. We see no difficulty or infringement in stating that the impulse of that thought came from your personal guidance but was enabled and assisted by your very recent interaction with us in that you truly entered into that which we were offering and were truly working with these ideas so that you softened the ground and enabled your ears to hear your own guidance.

May we answer you further, my brother?

T2: No, thank you very much.

Q’uo: We thank you, my brother. May we ask if there is a final query at this time?

T1: May I speak?

Q’uo: Yes.

T1: In the Law of One books I remember Ra told us that there is a complete transition into the fourth density in 2012. When I think of the current, chaotic war situation I wonder if this stage is delayed. I know you cannot give us the detailed dates, but could you focus a little about the current situation? Thank you.

We are those of Q’uo, and we thank you, my brother, and are glad to attempt to speak to your query. Firstly, the dating of the transition into full fourth-density energy for your planet is fixed. It is a matter of your time moving forward. Just as summer gives way to fall and fall gives way to winter, so one age gives way to another, and one period of time is succeeded by another. For your particular planet and your particular solar system, there is a turning of energy, a rotation into new space/time as well as new time/space. That is inevitable and is as the ticking of the clock. This will have been accomplished just as it has been foreseen by many at the approximate date of late in the twelfth month of 2011.

So, roughly speaking, 2012 shall see the full realization, in terms of the inner planes of your planet and the time/space aspects of your planet. Fourth density, in 2012, will be your system of energy. Now, my brother, as you can well imagine, there is much energy upon your planet at this time embodied in the persons of the individuals living upon it and the societal groups and structures and governments that these people have created that will be quite inappropriately geared for welcoming fourth-density energy. As we have said, there is a habit of contraction and fear and attempt to control among your people which may well end in entities doing great damage to each other and to the planet because, faced with energies they cannot control, they may well contract themselves into the Armageddon that they so fear. We are very hopeful, however, that this will not occur. There is a growing groundswell among your peoples at the soul level of honest and deep revulsion and distaste for the energies of control and destruction.

There is a true hope among your people that is growing daily for the energies of love, and trust, and peace to come swelling up like buds opening into flowers in spring. When each of you chooses love over fear, you start something happening in the unseen worlds. You create an energy that is compatible with fourth density. Each time you choose to trust, to love, to have forbearance and compassion, to see the other person’s point of view and truly walk in his shoes instead of your own, you are expanding the kingdom of fourth density right where you are. And the more people that begin consciously to do this, the faster this kingdom will expand. We say to you plainly, fourth density is all but complete. As you walk about in third density, the fourth density energy is stronger every day upon your planet. The Earth itself is vibrating largely in fourth density now. That is why so many entities are sensing the need to become closer in contact to the Earth itself, touching the ground, working with the Earth, working with plants and animals and those things that abide in the creation of the Father and have nothing to do with the world of the mind of man.

Health is abundant in the Earth itself. Its labor is ongoing, but the birth is going well. Perhaps you have noticed many significant catastrophes occurring upon the Earth plane. This is the labor of Earth. It is attempting to move into fourth density without having to express, all at once, the incompatibility between third-density thought, as it exists upon the Earth at this time, and the fourth-density vibration that has been coming. It is attempting to vent the fear and the anger and the narrow-mindedness of humankind in little bits, in a volcano erupting but not so as to split the Earth, or a tsunami or a hurricane that destroys a good deal but does not destroy the globe, or an earthquake which expresses the distress of Mother Earth but not in such a way as to destroy the planet as a whole.

T1’s question was: “In the Law of One books I remember Ra told us that there is a complete transition into the fourth density in 2012. When I think of the current, chaotic war situation I wonder if this stage is delayed. I know you cannot give us the detailed dates, but could you focus a little about the current situation? Thank you.” Q’uo began their reply by saying that the dating of the transition into fourth-density energy for our planet is fixed, and for our planet and solar system there is a rotation into new space/time as well as new time/space that is as inevitable as the ticking of the clock, and this will have been accomplished late in the twelfth month of 2011. Q’uo went on to say that in 2012 fourth density shall be our system of energy, and now there is much energy upon our planet embodied in the individuals living upon our planet and the social groups, structures, and governments that these people have created that will be inappropriately geared for welcoming fourth-density energy, and as Q’uo has said, there is a habit of fear and the attempt to control among our people which may result in their doing great damage to each other and to the planet because when they are faced with energies they cannot control, they may well contract themselves into the Armageddon that they so fear, but Q’uo was hoping that this will not occur because there is a growing groundswell among our people at the soul level of honest distaste for the energies of control and destruction. Q’uo continued by saying that there is true hope among our people that is growing daily for the energies of love and peace to grow like buds opening into flowers in spring so that when each of us chooses love over fear, and see the other person’s point of view, and truly walk in their shoes instead of our own, we are expanding the kingdom of fourth density right where we are, and the more people that begin to do this, the faster this kingdom will expand, and the Earth is vibrating largely in fourth density now, so that is why so many entities are sensing the need work with the Earth, work with plants and animals and those things that abide in the creation of the Father and have nothing to do with the world of the mind of man. Q’uo said that Earth is healthy as its labor continues, and its birth is going well, but the catastrophes occurring upon the Earth plane are a sign of its attempt to move into fourth density without having to express–all at once–the incompatibility between third-density thought, as it exists upon the Earth at this time, and the fourth-density vibration that has been coming: “It is attempting to vent the fear and the anger and the narrow-mindedness of humankind in little bits, in a volcano erupting but not so as to split the Earth, or a tsunami or a hurricane that destroys a good deal but does not destroy the globe, or an earthquake which expresses the distress of Mother Earth but not in such a way as to destroy the planet as a whole.” On May 3, 1992, Q’uo described the reason for the catastrophes that are occurring upon Earth at this time:

Thus, the release in a controlled fashion of heat energy is achieved as those natural, shall we say, catastrophes, as you call them, are experienced in the form of eruptions of volcanoes, the earthquakes, the heating and cooling effects of your geothermal forces, and other forms of the release of energy that will allow for the continual harmonization of this planetary influence as it moves through this period of transition.

Thus, there is much of choice on that part of the populations of this planet that will determine the precise location, duration, intensity, and nature of heat release. As entities and groupings of entities are able to resolve difficulties and achieve a more harmonious perception of relationship, there will be less need for the drastic, in your terms, release of this heat of emotion energy. Thus, it can be said that these releases of energies shall continue. As to their location, etc., this is, as you would say, in the process of being determined by the movement of thought…

We feel very hopeful that this grass roots upswelling from the soul level, of yearning for a world of love and peace, is powerful enough to continue to create the atmosphere in which the Earth may continue its final process of labor by venting these incompatible energies. Meanwhile you may well have noticed that there is an almost runaway experience of many within your plane at this time, of conditions such as cancer which seem to take people from their lives before their time. In many cases, these are situations in which entities have become hardened and set in their habits of thinking these habits being habitual and repetitive in terms of there being anger, fear, and aggression. These entities are predisposing their physical vehicles to end the incarnation because the difficulties of dealing with such a mismatch in vibration between the third-density thought and the fourth-density incoming, unseen reality, is simply too great. You will find that there are many who depart their incarnations within the next few years because of their inability to welcome the expansive and healing vibrations of fourth density.

Contrarily, those coming into incarnation at this time are often very able to vibrate fourth-density values and ways of thinking so that as your children are growing up, they are representing individual cases where they have been more and more able to welcome fourth-density energies. They are seen by their own parents often as amazing beings and much has been spoken of these young entities, which are sometimes called Indigo Children or Crystal beings. There are many terms for them, but their difference is that they have come into incarnation with some features of their fourth-density inner bodies activated as well as being activated in third density.

We would encourage you to see yourself as a secret agent of fourth density at this time. Have you heard the phrase, “Perform random acts of kindness”? This is the very essence of being a secret agent for love. The ones known as Ra long ago channeled through this instrument, “When faced with a situation, ask yourself the question, “Where is the love in this moment?” And we say to you, be an agent of that love, and be an instrument of peace. In all situations, there is at least a tiny peephole, a tiny window that lets in the Light and the Love of the one infinite Creator. Do what you can to find it. Make this transition into fourth density personal.

If you think in terms of world powers and world wars, you have no control and you can do no useful thing. However, that is a mental projection. You are the center of your universe, and you have power. You are a magical being and you are the face of the Creator in the little place that you occupy in this vast creation. Be an agent. Be proud and happy to be an agent of the Creator and part of the creative principle. And let your light shine, let your love embrace.

Now Q’uo said that they feel hopeful that this grass roots growth from the soul level of yearning for a world of love and peace is powerful enough to continue to create the atmosphere in which the Earth may continue its final process of labor by venting these incompatible energies, and they said that we may have noticed that there is an experience of many within our planet at this time of cancer which seems to take people from their lives before their time, and these are situations in which entities have become set in their habits of thinking of anger, fear, and aggression because these entities are causing their bodies to end the incarnation due to the difficulties of dealing with a mismatch in vibration between third-density thought and the fourth-density unseen reality is too great, and we will find that there are many who depart their incarnations within the next few years because of their inability to welcome the healing vibrations of fourth density. Q’uo went on to say that those coming into incarnation at this time are often able to vibrate fourth-density values and ways of thinking so that as our children are growing up, they have been more able to welcome fourth-density energies, and they are seen by their parents as amazing beings called Indigo Children or Crystal beings, and they have come into incarnation with features of their fourth-density inner bodies activated as well as being activated in third density. Q’uo continued by saying that they would encourage us to see ourself as being secret agents of Love so that whatever situation we are in, we can ask ourself “Where is the love in this moment?” And Q’uo said that we should become an agent of that Love and an instrument of peace because in all situations there is a tiny window that lets in the Light and the Love of the one infinite Creator, so we should do whatever we can to find it and make this transition into fourth density personal. Q’uo completed their reply by saying that if we think in terms of world powers and world wars, we have no control, and we can do no useful thing, but we are the center of our universe, and we are the face of the Creator in the place that we occupy in this vast creation, so we should be happy to be an agent of the Creator, and let our light shine, and let our love embrace. On May 2, 2004, Q’uo spoke about the nature of Indigo Children:

From our standpoint there is virtually no difference in those called Indigo Children and those called Crystal Kids. The designations indicate a double-activated third-density/fourth-density body, which makes such children, as they grow up, more able to access fourth-density reality. Since fourth density is here, and since entities are living in a combined third-density/fourth-density atmosphere, there is an increasing ability for all people to work upon the, what this instrument would call, DNA; to work upon the self at the cellular level, lifting consciousness and asking it to take hold of the new reality that is interpenetrating third density.

These children are far more able to do this than those with only the yellow-ray body activated because their DNA is already altered to some extent. However, their purpose here is as pioneers. They come in, in terms of fourth density, within very basic and primitive conditions, and are giving their lives to help establish fourth density and to be bridges of light for those who would listen to that which they would have to say and to live in such a way as to follow such advice as they would give. To put it another way, they are here to radiate light and love, as are all entities. It is hoped by their higher selves that they will have more efficacy in doing so than those who have not the advantage of a double-activated body.

May we answer you further, my brother?

T1: No, thank you. I am grateful.

Q’uo: We also are grateful for your heart and your question, my brother. And we thank this group as a whole for its energy and its beauty and its gift to us. We thank you for being able to share our humble thoughts with you and again we remind you to leave all thoughts behind that do not seem right to you, for we would not be a stumbling block in front of you. We are always with you if you ask for us and we leave you as we found you, in the love and in the light of the one infinite Creator. Adonai. Adonai.

This morning I had an appointment with my rheumatologist for my six month checkup to see how my osteoarthritis is doing and to review recent fasting labs. She said that all is well, but she would like to have me take an MRI test next month to see how my bone density is doing.

This afternoon I went out to the pet cemetery and used a paint brush and some white paint to repaint Chloe’s and Dan D. Lion’s names on their grave stones as they had been a little chipped here and there.

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

March 11

Calming The Storms Of Change

I am the Spirit of the living Jesus, incorporate in the mystery of Love and the principle of the consciousness of Love. I greet you in the essence of divine Love.

It is not known how many shall be blown by the winds of change this day. What is well known to those who seek the Spirit of truth and Love is that the winds of change are favorable, however stiff the gale may seem to be.

For those who have the consciousness of Love and the deep inner knowledge of peace, those storms of the life experience are calmed without great conscious effort by the remembrance of that inner peace and the turning to faith in the ultimate harmony and propriety of the Creator’s plan.

Yes, each of you has an agenda. That agenda may be stable for a large portion of your life experience. Or you and the Creator together may have molded a life experience of much service and also much change. Let there be in your mind less and less difference between the status quo and that which is untried and perhaps seen to be lesser, for the soul which flows with the changes of circumstance, discovering in each circumstance the peace and Love therein, is free in the service of the Father through the grace of Jesus Christ.

May you be filled with peace, both now and evermore. 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.
