Winter Solstice of 2011/ Harvest approaching?

[Tenet Nosce]

From the Aaron/Q'uo Dialogues, on the topic of "harvest".

Aaron: I want to speak to this term "harvest" and what it means. This is a word that is often used. Perhaps you flinch at the term and your energy quails because the word implies force to you, in that someone goes out into a field and harvests the grain and fruit to take it for its own, as if the grain or fruit were being used or manipulated. Think of the small energy than moved into that stalk of wheat and into that apple or bean. When energy moves into that which is used on this plane as food for others, its greatest will, at whatever level it is conscious, is to learn how to offer its energy to others in becoming part of the greatness that is universal consciousness. When you pick and apple from a tree and express gratitude for the nourishment and sweetness of that fruit, it honors the apple's greatest joy, which is to serve. Its free will is not being violated by being plucked to be eaten. If it did not want to be eaten it would have invented blemishes of one sort or another that would make it unappealing. The richer it appears and the more vibrant its energy fiels, the more it wishes to offer itself and to make itself attractive.

Just so, the evolving human that has become ready to move beyond this density becomes vibrant in its desire to be a tool of the Divine. It becomes radiant in its selflessness. Its greatest wish is to be of service and, as my brother/sister Q'uo just said, to allow its will to be offered to the greater will of the Infinite, as in saying, "Not my will, but thine be done; not for my glory, but for thine. It only comes through me. I am simply a channel."

Think you of this. Barbara, here, is a channel. She channels this energy that you have come to know as Aaron. Do you not think that I am also a channel? What I offer you does not originate with me. I offer you divine wisdom and tell you nothing that you do no t already know in the depths of your own divine wisdom. I am a channel. I am empty. When you come to what Q'uo has referred to as the harvest, it is not that your being is snatched up with no accord to your own will, but that the greatest gift that you can offer is to allow your energy and light to evolve to the point that you are ready to move beyond the limits that you have previously believed. From thence you may be harvested into the next step of your evolution.

It may help you to think of it with this image. WIthin each being is an intense light, unlimited in its power. Around each being are many layers of shielding, like and onion. Place that intense light in the center of the onion With each giving up of fear and with each bit of clarity of the truth of that inner light, layers of the so-called onion fall away. You become translucent. At a certain point you emit so much light that you are ready for the so-called harvest. You are ready to move into another plane where further layers may fall away. With higher densities, more and more layers of shielding and separation fall away until finally that brilliant and intense inner core is exposed and offered into the service of the Infinite, of God.

What is this harvest about on the earth plane? I spoke yesterday of the move of Earth from third to fourth density. In fourth density you are part of an energy group. You are not forced into that and not fixed in your placement, but desirous of that deepening contact. In a sense, the connection between you this weekend is rehearsal for fourth density. When you let your barriers down and allow yourself to be both more telepathic with each other and very open in your energy fields, with thinned shielding, you are practicing for fourth-density experience. The illusions of separation will fall away.

Fourth-density Earth may appear not much different in some outward aspects. There will be seas and mountains and forests. Yet, there will be a new understanding of the deepest interconnection of all that is, both upon the Earth and outward from the Earth. You will be co-creators with the soil in the creation of your crops. If you choose to eat solid food rather than to dwell simply on the light and energy, that which you eat will be thanked graciously. And as Q'uo thanked you for the opportunity you give him to serve, your food will thank you for its opportunity to serve by nourishing your body. You will understand your codependence on others in a positive sense. You will not be ashamed of that which arises in you. Since there will be no shame over the arisings of the emotional body nor any need to fling those emotions on others, you will deeply share your joys and sorrows, much as fourth-density energy does not.

Fourth-density energy now is fully telepathic within its group. The learning of compassion is so profound because you fully experience the unshielded emotions of another, as its pains, its sorrows, and its joys. You no longer are limited to learning from your own experience but become able to learn from everyone's experience. And because you no longer guard your own experience out of shame, you offer it to others for a source for their learning. This is what Earth is in the process of becoming.

People as me, "Is this really going to happen? What about the arising negativity I see on the earth plane?" My dear ones, if you fear and hate that negativity, you simply add to to it and it will become the source of your own stagnation. This process is much in the ways a child learns lessons in school and asks, "Am I ready to go on?" If he or she does not study for an examination and does not pass the test, he may not go on. The focus is not on progression but on understanding. The work must be reviewed until it is understood. There is no time pressure. If you continue to return fear to fear and hatred to hatred, you have not understood and the work will be repeated until it is understood. The Earth will continue to offer you catalyst. When enough of you understand the lessons and can return kindness and love to fear by allowing fear to become a catalyst for compassion rather than hate, then you will be ready to shed the illusion and move into fourth density.

Many of you will continue on to fourth-density Earth. Others will move back to nonmaterial planes from which you came and find whatever other ways you may choose to serve and to learn. The radiant fruit that you have become will find its next place int he universe, which is the next place to serve, to grow, and to love, I would like here to pass the microphone back to Q'uo. That is all.
