You Have the Power

2021 is the beginning of a new age,
It is the time when those with an awakened consciousness will thrive.
Those with an unawakened consciousness,
those who are slaves of their suffering minds will fail.
Only those who are rooted in the power of their true self will succeed.

In 2021 many will be the fears that society will spin,
many will be the fears the media will spin,
many will be the fears your own mind will spin
but don’t give in.

You have to shine brighter than you have ever done before. ….
Shine with the Light of the courage within.
Don’t imagine that the more awakened you become,
the more passive you will be
That is a wrong notion.
Be someone who is capable of taking fearless action.

First of all, I would like to wish you a very Happy New Year, and offer you the most sincerest of wishes that it is going to be a whole sight better than 2020 for us all.  

It is important to acknowledge that 2020 was frankly horrific for many people and the damage that was done to the health, wealth, emotional, mental and physical well-being of so many and to the collective was huge. Many people didn’t survive 2020; whether their businesses went under, whether they had a breakdown of some sort, whether they were one of the 60% increase in suicides in the UK last year or whatever else happened to them, a lot of people just didn’t make it.


We also lost a lot of freedoms; freedom of movement, the freedom to see some of our loved ones, the freedom to hug, the freedom to smile in public, the freedom to have Christmas, the freedom to put forward a different point of view in a public arena (I saw only this morning that @talkradio has now been banned on YouTube, apparently for publicly challenging lockdown policy) and many more freedoms besides. 
 
The nicer news is that YOU have the power to start changing 2021 for the better now.  We enter the start of this New Year in what frankly is a pretty dark place for humanity; in another lockdown if you are in the UK, a covid variant apparently on the loose and all of us on the proverbial precipice of an experimental “vaccine” being forced upon us. Many people are fearful about this situation, and many are angry about the way this is being handled, however it seems that way too many are either apathetic, or think that things will work themselves out (same thing as apathy). Someone said to me today that they saw this as all “just theatre being played out purely for our distraction” when they were talking about videos of people (including a 92 year old man) being arrested in London today!!  Pffft was all I could politely respond to that!

However, there is hope and there is always hope. The old ways do have to be dismantled before the new ways can be fully birthed, and before those old ways can be dismantled they have to be brought to Light. Astrologically and universally, there is certainly a definitive change of energy in the air that is facilitating that. It may not necessarily seem like it right now, nonetheless as we move further into the age of Aquarius it is natural that the energies of the old ways of fear (which is the biggest driving force on the planet right now) and control and apathy will start to have less of an impact on society and power will return to the people. However that doesn’t mean that the “inner work” will get done for you, for you alone have the power to do the work for you. That’s the Soul Journey


A large part of the Soul Journey for everybody at this moment in time is to take responsibility – primarily for individual thoughts and emotions and behaviours – though also for taking responsibility over how they (and thus you) influence the collective consciousness. What that means is however we are influencing the external reality happening in the world right now (however subconsciously). If you are reading this newsletter this far, then I am guessing that is a concept you either partially or wholly embrace.


Doing the “inner work” and taking responsibility is essential at this point in time for you on your Soul Journey. It can involve many variants however a few things that are important include:


Dealing with your fears – if you align to fear and let your actions be dictated by fear, then you get more fear. That’s what is happening to society as a whole for the past 12 months.

Finding truthfulness and stay anchored to it – this is so important right now as truth is a rare commodity to find these days. Strange as it might sound, your head might not know the truth; perhaps your subconscious has been programmed by years of TV watching ? Your heart however will know truth

Finding your voice and expressing your truth – even i that is to just one person 

Taking action (inaction is a weapon of destruction) – that action might be doing research, joining a support group or supporting others who are struggling in some way. 

Having compassion for others – whatever their choices 

Aligning your internal compass for the best outcome and greatest joy for you.

And as for hope, it plays such a potentially powerful role in life. It is much more than a rose-tinted view that “everything will turn out ok in the end”. It is more about believing that you that have the power to get where you need to go or accomplish whatever you need to in the right way and time for you.

Having hope means that one does not give in to overwhelming anxiety or seemingly insurmountable challenges or difficulties or other pressures of life and instead with hope we can self-reassure, allow our own inner resourcefulness to flow a little more, and move onwards in life at a pace that’s right for us.


For like the “Hope” sitting at the bottom of Pandora’s Box where it served as the antidote to all the afflictions of the world, hope is a healing and nurturing energy deep within us. Our Souls brought hope into this incarnation with us on our Journey of the Soul to help us and to guide us and to nurture us whenever we need it. 


So my hope Is that you have hope for you


2021 onwards is about moving to a place of letting go of fear (and whatever vehicle that fear drives), being in truth and fearlessness and generating deeper levels of compassion. Everything is in place for that, and you have the power to get there sooner than later…all you need to do the inner work though!! So, have hope and take action
