Once we no longer choose to accept that we are limited, powerless and helpless, all of the structures whose existence depends on those beliefs will crumble. Then we will create a new, more empowered world.

~Jennifer Hoffman, Enlightening Life

I woke up recently with images connected to freedom on my mind:

*a kite on a string straining to go higher with the wind

*an airplane ready to take off

*a seal and a penguin, awkward on land but so swift and graceful in the ocean

*birds who are slow on land but fast in flight

*an animal with the cage door open

So it was interesting to see the quote above in Jennifer Hoffman’s October energy report. It basically says it’s time to roll.  We have done so much work over the last few years.  Sometimes it felt like there would be no end to the endless cleanse as we cleared out old fears and limiting beliefs that no longer serve us.

Most of us have old ‘stuff’ that we will need to clear and release from time to time. But Jennifer says it’s time to move from being a wounded healer-trying to heal and fix everyone and everything around us-to living a healed, whole life.  Wow!  Sounds great but many of us are in new territory when we really focus on that.

We are so programmed to work, be productive, take care of others. Not everyone is, of course, but a lot of us are.  I know I tend to have a ‘to do’ list and one of the items isn’t ‘have fun’!  So for those of us steeped in the old Protestant work ethic, it’s time to seek balance with a bit, or maybe a lot, more emphasis on being rather than doing.  Being joyful rather than being busy.  Self-care balanced with caring for others.

The good news is that the energy is supporting our freedom in amazing ways. Jim Self of Mastering Alchemy says that the old 3D template has been removed from the earth.  All that is left of the old programming of domination, power over and limitations is our old beliefs.  When we clear that out, we can embrace the freedom that is abundantly available to us.  Perhaps we are a little like an animal who has lived in a cage for so long that when the door is opened we need a little time to stretch and believe that we are truly free.  But how incredibly wonderful it is when we taste and embrace that!!

My beloved ones,

Indeed the doors to freedom are opening at this time. It is a beautiful convergence of people who have reached a point where they are ready to cast off the shackles of servanthood and even slavery.  People are feeling freedom in their souls.  Yet they are realizing how little freedom they currently feel in their lives.

It isn’t easy to leave the familiar for the unknown. But there is no other way to reach new vistas.  Consider the seed.  It is small and safe inside its hard shell.  But in that form it is not free to be its true self-an oak tree, a flower or a blade of grass.  So the seed hides itself in fertile soil and when the time is right, it emerges and begins to stretch toward the sun and air and rain.  It is following the blueprint for its growth and so it grows.

No one would say to a seed, stay safe inside the husk. We are glad when seeds sprout and we know that it is how nature does things.  So, too, with humans, always expanding, casting off the barriers that limit growth.

Dear ones, this time is a ‘growth spurt’ in planetary evolution. I know that you can feel it more and more!  Breathe into it until you catch the excitement, the knowing that old limitations are giving way to new possibilities.  You have the blueprint in your soul!  Feel yourself emerging into the New.  You are creating the New!

The old systems and limitations are very visible. But they will vanish when we release the beliefs that hold them in place.  It is a natural progression so stay centered and in peace.  Do what the whispers of your spirit are encouraging you to do!  Then let the rest unfold in Divine timing and wisdom.

Feel the comfort and love of the Mother and all the beings of the Unseen Realm who are so near to you. Rest against my heart when you are troubled or afraid.  I never leave you and you are always in my heart.

I love you, my precious ones. I am Gaia, your Earth Mother, your friend.
