I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. Today the Q’uo quote comes from August 22, 2004:
Carla channeling)
We are those known to you as the principle of Q’uo, and we greet you in the love and in the light of the one infinite Creator, in Whose energy we come and in Whose service we are. It is our distinct privilege to be called to this circle of seeking, and we thank each entity here for taking the time away from a very busy and tension-ridden life to stop a minute and just ask for the truth, for those things to come in that you hope will be resources and assets as you face the present moment. It is truly a present moment that is fascinating and challenging in many ways. And we are most glad to be here with you.
In order for us to be able to speak freely, we would add our voice to the one known as “Joy of Life” and ask each to use your discrimination carefully. Do not assume that we or any other entity are authorities, for we are not. You are the authority over your own learning curve, over your own spiritual evolution. You have the right and the ownership of your truth. It is not like anyone else’s truth, and it is not the same truth for you from year to year and sometimes from moment to moment. Always listen with a new ear and see if you feel resonance with that which is being spoken. If so, take it in and work with it, make it your own. In the echoes of that resonance lie personal truth that is helpful for you now. If it does not resonate for you, drop it, leave it, walk away without a second thought. It is not your truth. It may be helpful to someone else, but it didn’t ring your bell, so let it be. This will enable us to speak freely without concern that we may be abridging your own free will for attempting to pretend that we can learn for you. We are only those who walk with you.
Before we take queries, we would simply suggest to each of you that you are the Light of the world. There is illumination coming into this room from several sources, and we would use some of these images to talk about how you are Light. If you gaze behind this instrument, there is a decoration made of a tree into which there are pinned Christmas lights. It is a beautiful, aesthetically pleasing decoration. But more than that, it is a beautiful image of your planet and its people. Each of you is a radiant source of energy. When you are plugged in, how you shine! And you are connected one to the other, not visibly. Visibly, each entity is separate, each entity has limits, places where flesh and clothing meet the air, feet meet the ground. It is obvious that in the physical illusion each is separate. And yet you have, common to this incarnation, families, not nuclear or physical families alone, but spiritual families, larger groups of entities than you might suspect, who have chosen to come into incarnation to work in tandem with those whom they meet and with whom they seem to feel kinship and affinity and much more than that. With the extended families of each of you, who in many cases share relatives, shall we say, on the unseen planes, you are connected in so many ways which you cannot see but can only feel. So, know that, as you look into the eyes of those whom you have not yet touched into in terms of energy, with whom you have not exchanged energy, yet you do not look into the eyes of strangers. For beneath the surface of this seeming separateness of the physicality, you are strongly and powerfully connected by those families from which you came and to which you shall return.
You have come here to be a Light, to lighten the planet known as Earth. Let us look at that Christmas lighting of the tree again, this image of all of you in incarnation being here and “holding the energy” or “holding the space.” Who are you linked into? Look about you to the ceiling and you will see constellations of lighting that seem to come down from above. These might represent sources of integration. As the physical illusion becomes ever more complicated, reassurance, and grounding, oddly enough, come from perceived sources of inspiration. One light may be a walk in the woods; another may be inspirational writings; and there are wonderful books offered in this very room that may be just what you might need at this time. Touch the books; touch the materials; see if there is energy there for you; and when you do perceive a source of energy, remember to use it. Open the book; take the walk; place yourself into engagement with the present moment. For you are a powerful and magical being. The Light within you is that energy that is infinite. What are you plugged into? What infinite source are you plugged into?
And now look out the window and see the sunlight that pours a wasteful amount of energy infinitely into your plane, far more than any entities may use. The Creator is incredibly generous. There is no end to consciousness, there is no end to Love, there is no end to that into which you are plugged. For you are as the vine branch; you are as the lamp that is lit. The vine branch moves down into the vine. The master known as Jesus said, “I am the true vine, and you are the branches.” And again, he said, “You are the Light of the world,” so do not hide your Light under the bushel, do not tuck it away inside your house, inside your being, inside your practice, but allow that energy into which you are plugged in your inner heart to move ever more freely through the open heart and into the world around you.
All things are one, and you are not only a personality shell, a being of a certain identified kind, living a certain kind of life. You are, as the one known as Father said, “a spark of the divine,” a sparkle in the eye of the Creator. And you have come at no small inconvenience to yourself into what seems to be a fairly darkened atmosphere. Do not be fooled. Do not be dismayed. The “ascension” of which many have spoken is not coming. It is here. The energy of fourth density lives, as it can, in the corners, cracks and crevices of third-density Earth. It is an overpowering energy, and it is moving far more energetically now than a year ago. Indeed, we may say that it is your choice as to which density in which you choose to live.
It is a delicate thing to change the point of view from third-density consensus reality to fourth-density perceived reality; to switch from living by fear into living by love; to move from a point of view in which one defends and guards into a point of view in which one sees oneself as a crystal being that is able to receive the Love and the Light of the one infinite Creator, bless it and allow it to go forth from the open heart without distortion. As you are able to express the unconditional Love that fuels your Light and that is the source of your Light, you become the Light of the world.
Q’uo began by saying that each of us is the Light of the world, and each of us is a radiant source of energy when we are connected to each other, but within the physical illusion each of us is separate with limits where our flesh and clothing meet the air, and our feet meet the ground, and in this incarnation we are members of nuclear families and also spiritual families who have chosen to come into incarnation to work with those with whom they feel affinity and much more than that so that each of us shares relatives on the unseen planes that we are connected with which we can only feel, so when we look into the eyes of those whom we have not exchanged energy, we do not look into the eyes of strangers, for beneath the surface of this seeming separateness of physicality, we are powerfully connected to those families from which we came and to which we shall return. Q’uo went on to say that we have come here to be a Light, to lighten the Earth, and all of us in incarnation are here to hold the energy, and we are linked into the constellations of lighting that seem to come down from above, and they represent sources of integration so that as the physical illusion becomes more complicated there is reassurance and grounding that come from sources of inspiration such as a walk in the woods, inspirational writings, and wonderful books that may be just what we might need at this time, so when we perceive a source of energy that we can use it to engage with the present moment because we are a powerful and magical being, and the Light within us is that energy that is infinite. Q’uo continued by saying that if we look out the window, we can see the sunlight that pours energy infinitely into our plane because the Creator is incredibly generous, and there is no end to consciousness or the Love that we are plugged into, for we are as the vine branch, and Jesus said: “I am the true vine, and you are the branches.” And again, he said, “You are the Light of the world,” so do not hide your Light under the bushel, do not tuck it away inside your house, inside your being, inside your practice, but allow that energy into which you are plugged in your inner heart to move ever more freely through the open heart and into the world around you.” Then Q’uo said that all things are one, and we are not only a being of a certain kind, living a certain kind of life, but we are a sparkle in the eye of the Creator, and we have come at no small inconvenience to ourself into what seems to be a darkened atmosphere, but we should not be dismayed because the “ascension” of which many have spoken is here, and the energy of fourth density lives in the cracks and crevices of third-density Earth, and it is an overpowering energy that is moving more energetically now than a year ago, and it is our choice as to which density we choose to live. Q’uo completed their reply by saying it is a delicate thing to change our point of view from third-density reality to fourth-density reality; from living by fear to living by love; to move from defending and guarding into a point of view where we see ourself as a: “crystal being that is able to receive the Love and the Light of the one infinite Creator, bless it and allow it to go forth from the open heart without distortion.” And as we are able to express the unconditional Love that fuels our Light and that is the source of our Light, we become the Light of the world. On April 7, 1996, Q’uo said that we all are the Light of the world:
My dear ones, you are the Light of the world. It is from hearts such as yours that the Light of your planet comes. It is from lives such as yours that the great procession of life and death is imbued in the passion play of life on Earth with honor, dignity, compassion, and deep caring. You have within you every force of death and every force of Light. Nothing has been left out of your makeup. It is the way of the spiritual sojourner to live that uncomfortable life that is aware of these matters, that is aware of the great wheel of evolution working through time and space to bring consciousness to that infinite present moment, where that great Love that created all that there is suddenly explodes into Light infinite and indivisible.
May I ask the one known as M at this time if there are queries for us?
M: Yes, Q’uo, there are. “What is the next step for me to take, both personally and spiritually?”
We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query. The present moment is perfect. And yet it is as a seed that is in a process of growth. When one considers the next step, either personally or spiritually, the question becomes, “Where is the love in this moment?” Your past has planted seeds in the work you have done, in the suffering you have undergone, the lessons you have learned. You have fertilized, watered, and developed those seeds, and they are what have bloomed into the present moment, but they are not the end of the process. They are an exquisitely poignant picture that does not last except to give you wings to see your way to that next step. As you ask, “Where is the Love?” you can begin to see into the relationships that you bring to this moment and the issues which you are pondering.
What help has been asked? If there is a request for service, that is always the next step. What are the energies surrounding this issue or this relationship? Where and how can the entity that you are and the gifts that you have be helpful? And do not forget yourself, for if you overwork yourself, if you exhaust your spiritual, your emotional, or your mental energies, not to mention your physical energies, how shall you serve at all? So, it is well to ask yourself, “What do I need to meet this moment?” It might be a very small thing that moves you from a feeling of being overworked, over-energized, exhausted, tense, and even depressed, to good cheer and good energy. It might be a cup of tea. It might be anything that you sense into and realize, “You know, I’ve been thinking about everyone else, but I really need to take a nap, take a bite, take a walk.”
Focus, when looking at taking the next step, on how you are feeling, how your attitude is, and how you perceive this present moment. How do you see the system, as a whole, that is your energy field? Are you in health? You need to be in order to serve. If the answer to that is no, stop and ask for balance. If you are feeling bewildered, stop, sit in silence, and let the universe pour in. It might be the call of a bird; it might be spirits speaking directly to you in a voice you can hear. It might be anything in between. It might be a street sign that pops out at you in synchronicity with the thought that you were having. There are many, many ways that Spirit connects with those who are listening, so listen, and listen to yourself, being sure, first, that the instrument is in good order, for you are instruments.
Q’uo was asked: “What is the next step for me to take, both personally and spiritually?” Q’uo began their reply by saying that the present moment is perfect, but it is like a seed that is in the process of growth, and when we consider our next step, either personally or spiritually, our question becomes, “Where is the love in this moment?” So our past has planted seeds in the lessons we have learned, and we have fertilized and watered those seeds so that they are what have bloomed into the present moment, but they are not the end of the process because they are a poignant picture that does not last except to give us wings to see our way to that next step, and as we ask, “Where is the Love?” we can begin to see into the relationships that we bring to this moment and the issues which we are pondering. Q’uo went on to say that if there is a request for service, that the next step is asking for the nature of the energies of this relationship, how we can help, and how do we serve if we have exhausted our spiritual, mental, emotional, or physical energies, so it is well to ask ourself, “What do I need to meet this moment?” Q’uo said it might be a small thing that moves us from a feeling of being overworked and tense, to good cheer and good energy, and: “it might be a cup of tea. It might be anything that you sense into and realize, “You know, I’ve been thinking about everyone else, but I really need to take a nap, take a bite, take a walk.” Q’uo completed their reply by saying that if the answer to that is no, that we should stop and ask for balance, or if we are feeling bewildered, stop, sit in meditation, and let the universe pour in to give us a message through the call of a bird, or spirits speaking to us in a voice we can hear because there are many ways that Spirit connects with those who are listening, so we should listen to ourself after we are sure that we are balanced because we are instruments. On December 12, 1976, Hatonn spoke of how we are instruments:
We say only to you that we are completely with you and send our light and our love to you. You must be aware that our basic desire is to tell this planet that Love is all that there is; to let this planet know that the creation is the Creator’s and that many, many within its infinity praise His name. An earlier voice than ours, that of the master known as Jesus, instructed his followers to go to the ends of the Earth and tell all that they met about the Truth. This is time honored, and we subscribe to it. We are instruments of the Creator, and so are you. We have our limitations, and so do you. But your limits are far, far more capacious than ours, for you have chosen to incarnate and this gives you greater scope and greater responsibilities.
M: “What is my forward movement?”
We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query. The question of forwardness is interesting. A third-density consensus-reality way of thinking is always designed with an arrow: first this, then this, then this, a sequence in a straight line. However, spiritually speaking, there is a circle, or perhaps more rightly, a sphere, and all movement is forward. Think of yourself not as this lumbering great ape that is walking step, by step, by step. Think of the energy body that you are, for you have wings, and you fly. This energy body, or torus of energy, that is your basic metaphysical nature or body, can roll in any direction, and move from level to level, density to density, picking up the information and the resources that it needs. Certainly, most of this is not done consciously.
So a lot of moving forward is getting your preconceptions of what forward movement is out of the way and then opening to the resources about you: your dream work, your synchronicities, your reading, that which you pick up from conversations and from the silence when you tabernacle with the one infinite Creator and your guidance. It is so important to touch in frequently to your guidance and then listen. If you can, when you get an impression, take it seriously, write it down, go back and look at it and see if you have followed your own guidance yet. If not, hit it with ever more energy and enthusiasm, for you are connected, you do know in your inner heart where that next forward movement is. But you shall not know as fully unless you allow the roundness and the freedom of the being that you truly are as a citizen of eternity to come out.
M: “Will my financial situation resolve?”
We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query. The issue of supply is a ticklish one and certainly this instrument experiences many times of wondering precisely how the bills shall be paid, precisely how supply will manifest itself and yet, indeed it always has, for this instrument. It has sometimes been mighty close, but somehow the wagon has continued to stay on the road in some way. And we would suggest that the visualizing of this state of perfection will encourage the richness of supply. We do not suggest a laundry list of needed things in your prayers to the Creator. When you think about the prayer that the master known as Jesus taught to his disciples, it only asked for today. Focus upon that which is needed this day and ask, without pride but also without shame, “May I have that which is needed in supply and in energy in all things this day, that I may serve?” Let that affirmation rest, knowing that, for this one day, you will be supplied with that which you truly need. We apologize for not being more specific but we find that in order to keep the tuning of what this instrument would call the highest and best that she requested, we need to stay at the level of spiritual principles.
M: “Is this a special group? What can you tell us about what brought us together today?”
We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query. Indeed, we have spoken to some extent upon this subject, and it is dear to our hearts. You are here this day because you are a family. You have not chosen each other in a conscious way. You do not have the entanglements with many of these here of family, previous friendships, and so forth. But there is a tabernacle in which all of you reside. It is that space or energy that is held together by those who seek the truth and who seek to serve at this time. You have come this day for reasons on the conscious level, but because of promptings also on the subconscious level.
So, we encourage you to see this event and this gathering as a family reunion of those who have not previously, perhaps, come into a gathering or re-united. Yet you are all called by Spirit to be witnesses to Light and Love. And each of you has worked, and played, and suffered, and laughed, and done the living that collects life experience. You have begun to gather about yourselves a kind of spiritual gravity, a weight, a density of being that holds the Light. You see, when entities begin to wake up to their spiritual nature, they are perfectly capable of grasping the ideas because the ideas which concern spiritual evolution are fairly simple. It has often been called the universal wisdom, or the eternal wisdom. What we have to say, and indeed what each has to say this day has been said before and will be said again, and yet, because of the nature of Spirit, it must be said in the present moment as a spark that can ignite or as a germ that can infect.
Perhaps that is what we would say to you: each of you is a carrier of unconditional Love. As one person becomes enlightened, awakened, and energized by the Spirit, unconditional Love pours through. Yet it cannot be held for long periods of time, at first. The tuning slips; the energy is exhausted; and rest must be taken. You are here to deepen your own spiritual density, to find those resources that work for you as you assume the discipline of your own personality and begin to learn how to persist in patience, in good humor, and in peace, and compassion for yourself as a bozo and a mistake-maker of the first order. All of us, all of you, every iota of the creation of the Father, makes mistakes. If we did not have distortion, we would be resting in the allness of the creative principle. We would not be working our way back to the Source. You are between alpha and omega, and you are here to learn how to accelerate your pace of evolution. Each entity whom you meet this day is your teacher. Each eye that you look into is the eye of the Creator. You live in a hall of mirrors and these mirrors are wonderfully clear. Come, meet yourself here.
Is this a special group? What can you tell us about what brought us together today?” Q’uo began their reply by saying that this subject is dear to their hearts because they are here this day because we are a family, but we have not chosen each other in a conscious way so that we do not have the complications with many of these here of family and previous friendships, and there is a tabernacle in which all of us reside, and it is that energy that is held together by those who seek the truth and seek to serve at this time, and we have come this day for reasons on the conscious level and also on the subconscious level. Q’uo encouraged us to see this gathering as a family reunion of those who have not come into a gathering before, yet we are all called by Spirit to be witnesses to Light and Love, and each of us has worked, suffered, laughed, and done the living that collects our life experience, and we have begun to create around ourselves a spiritual gravity and a density of being that holds the Light because when we begin to wake up to our spiritual nature, we are capable of grasping the ideas because the ideas which concern spiritual evolution are fairly simple, and they have been called the universal wisdom, and what Q’uo had to say had been said before and will be said again, and yet, because of the nature of Spirit, it must be said in the present moment as a spark that can ignite us. Q’uo completed their thoughts by saying that our tuning slips; our energy is exhausted; rest must be taken; and we are here to deepen our spiritual density to find those resources that work for us as we practice the disciplines of our personality and begin to learn patience in good humor and compassion for ourself as a mistake-maker because all of us in the creation of the Father makes mistakes, and if we did not have distortions we would be resting in the unity of the Creator, and Q’uo would not be working their way back to the Source, so we are between alpha and omega, and we are here to learn how to accelerate our pace of evolution, and: “Each entity whom you meet this day is your teacher. Each eye that you look into is the eye of the Creator. You live in a hall of mirrors and these mirrors are wonderfully clear. Come, meet yourself here.” On August 25, 2005, Q’uo spoke about how a hall of mirrors works:
The hidden benefit of such a group is the opportunity that the members of such a group offer to each other for learning about themselves. This instrument has spoken often about the mirroring effect of other people in her life. And certainly, this mirroring effect is greatly enhanced when a group which is conscious of wishing to be of service comes together in commonality of purpose and offers friendship and companionship, one to the other.
Each entity becomes a mirror that reflects back to the self what the self is creating and expressing within that group. Certainly, many of the reflections which one receives from such a hall of mirrors, as this instrument has called a spiritually-oriented group, may be warped or distorted in some way, therefore not offering a completely accurate image. However, the colorations and distortions offered by each entity within the group are in themselves interesting and offer in some cases that precious item which is so often under-appreciated by your peoples; that is catalyst. Even those who may see you in a critical or otherwise distorted fashion are of benefit to you in that they offer you material upon which to work both by using your powers of analysis and your powers of intuition and insight.
May we ask if there is another query at this time?
M: “Was Paladin a true energy encounter?”
We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query, my sister. Because of the degree of surety that you have at this time we would confirm that this is an helpful energy for you at this time. We thank each of you and we leave each of you in the love and in 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 used my seed spreader to spread grass seeds over my back yard as I have recently been told by two friends that this is the best time of spring to grow grass by simply sowing it on the ground with no mulch on top of it.
This afternoon I used my trimmer to weed the Moss Garden for the first time this year. Then I used my backpack blower to blow all of the leaves and small sticks into a pile, and then I put them into a garbage can. Then I went across the road to my neighbor’s yard and filled her bird feeders with bird seed and sprinkled some on the ground for the squirrels and deer.
From A Book of Days, channeled by Carla L. Rueckert:
March 6
Rest In Change
I am of the spirit of Jesus the Christ, and I greet you in the full consciousness of divine Love.
Change is a constant in nature and a necessity in God’s plan for the development of His people. As the seasons change, the eyes of your hearts do not perhaps notice nature’s economy in dealing with constant change. Perhaps it has not been seen that change can be graceful and beautiful.
The creation of the Father rests in change and is always at peace. Therefore, there is not more displacement than is necessary, not more travail than required. And though the Earth may heave with frost or fall into dust with drought, yet still it does not thrash about in fear.
Know that the seasons of the soul are sometimes short and sometimes very long. There is a constant movement or process of change, sometimes slow and sometimes quick. Instead of agitation and worry it is possible to meet these changes fearlessly, gracefully, and peacefully, resting in change, trusting in the goodness of the Father’s plan.
May each so rest, 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.
