I feel that those humans who choose to be on a journey of awakening are at the unlocking stage. We can consciously breathe to unlock the potentials behind each door. Every room holds a gift if we are bold enough to unlock the door and pass through to the other side. Each door leads us closer and closer to that which is most unknown to us, the Undiscovered Country of our Soul. We are deeply afraid, some of us, of what lies behind each door.

Perhaps it is the fear of our Soul Selves that keeps us from turning the key to unlock the potentials…and the gifts. But what do we have to lose, really, if we discover who we are? What if we go beyond belief and platitudes about I AM into knowing all that I AM?

This is quite to be expected since your body is accustomed to operating in a certain way. When that routine is disrupted by something, say embodiment, the body has some resistance to the change. It is the resistance that uses the energy. The best thing to do is breathe gently though it.

Do whatever you can to nurture yourself. If you feel like taking a nap, take a nap.  Take a hot salt-bath (sea salt is best). Take a walk. Whatever you choose to nurture you. The nurturing is an important part of the process. Be kind, be gentle to you. No need to push, not need to force. Force will not work anyway, so don’t bother.

Now, we will just be still and breathe with you. You breath us, we breathe you.

In la’kech. I AM another You.

We like to think it is an open two-way communication instead of one-way messages from on high. In fact, we on this side find it very funny that you on that side place such a special value on our communications with you. Oh, we do love the communication but it is quite normal and natural for a human to actually talk to us, not as a form of meditation or prayer, but direct conversation. This is what we want the humans to understand. We want you to allow this communication with you.

But so many of the humans are afraid that they are doing wrong if they open up and talk with us. They have been taught about spirits and spooks to the point that they have come to believe that if the talk with “angels” they are committing a sin. They are afraid of evil spirits. Of course, you must use discretion and discernment. If something doesn’t feel right to you or for you, honor your feelings. you are not in danger; follow your instinct and feelings. If you feel like your energy is being depleted then don’t have contact and demand that the spirit be gone. (Yes, you have every right to do that.) No entity of love and compassion will ever ask you for adoration, worship, or otherwise ask you in any way for anything that serves to take energy away from you. No entity of love and compassion will tell you what to do.

In fact, the opposite will occur. Any being of love and compassion will honor your choices, including if you choose not to communicate. No matter how much we love speaking with you, we will never demand it of you. We continue to love you and honor you in compassion for you and your choices.

We love so much when humans allow us to come close enough to feel our love and hear our words. But it is not necessary and we do not need such communication for we know that sooner or later in one lifetime or another, or on this side, we will have communion with you once again. We have all the time in the universe—and so do you.

The joy we feel when a human opens up enough to feel us is strong, indeed. Maybe they never allow themselves to consciously talk with us, but eventually the trust will grow until it is commonplace for them to feel our presence.

As you know, they sometimes create all kinds of explanations but it actually comes down to feeling our energy of unconditional love and compassion. By “we” we mean all of us and that includes the Soul Self. Make no mistake that your Soul Self is with you and has so much love and compassion for you.

In truth, there really is no separation like there seems to be in your physical world. On this side, we see very clearly how the energetic expressions are merely that—expressions of the One Source. Even in your physical plane there is only a facade of separation. That is the duality at play with you. Each human is a divine expression of his or her Soul Self and the Soul Self is a divine expression of the Source of Life.

We are the Council of Light and we love you dearly.

It is a time of great movement and measure. Measurements are taking place of the movement of consciousness. Consciousness is indeed shifting and you can see the results all around you in Earth’s environment.

It is the change in temperature of the totality, not just ambient air temperature. Air temperature fluctuates as the overall temperature continues to rise. It is this rise in atmospheric temperature that you can notice. This temperature is what determines the weather conditions. It is as though the Earth has a fever, much in the same way a human has a fever. It is normal for the human body to have a temperature ranging from 97° to 100° Fahrenheit. On the skin surface the temperature will fluctuate, of course, but the overall temperature is what remains normally around 98.6°.

However, as you know all too well, it is the overall temperature that is critical. You might say the Earth’s body has a fever. As that temperature rises even 1 or 2 degrees, you see results even now. Tornadoes, earthquakes, hurricanes, cyclones, and other events are occurring in places and ways that are unusual. Even in Columbus a tornado developed under unusual cool weather conditions. We do not say it was a first, but it is unusual. Have you not noticed that your storms have greater intensity? Have you not noticed that everything is more intense?

We would suggest that you not get trapped in the arguments about who or what is responsible for these changes. In fact, you all are responsible but not necessarily in the way you think. Your consciousness is shifting. As human consciousness shifts, so does the planet. If you hold back this change in consciousness, a tension is created that makes it more difficult for the Earth to go through changes in a more graceful manner. If you allow your consciousness to shift, and indeed invite the shift or change, the changes occur more smoothly and with less disruption.

Even if you do not accept this explanation, or any other explanation, are not the effects the same regardless? So, if it is normal that every so many thousand years the Earth’s temperature rises or lowers, are you not effected just the same? Whether it is human pollution or just a natural course of events, the result is the same: humans have a choice whether or not to adapt to the changes. Fighting the changes will only deepen the intensity.

We do not desire to bring fear to you. There is enough of that already on your planet. Rather, we wish to have you consider the effects of humans on the planet, but not just in regards to pollution, but more importantly, regarding your consciousness, your awareness or sensitivity to changes around you. Whatever the cause, Earth is changing. How humans react to these changes it to be considered. Are you choosing to go into fear and panic or are you choosing to breathe and allow yourself to adjust to the changes?

Many of the humans who panic will turn to their scriptures for guidance. Most will only see what they fear: the end of time as illustrated in many prophecies. Those who go into that fear deeply will have opportunities to experience their worst fears.

Others will choose another way. They will choose to begin to breathe deeply of the breath of life, the breath of God, called in your Hebrew language, ruwach. It is through this breath, this deep breathing into your belly region that will bring a process of clearing the fear energies.

This divine breath is a gift from Spirit to all humans who choose to accept it. This is not a “saving” breath. There is nothing to be saved from, except, perhaps, your fears and doubts. This breath of love is for you to enable you to see that you are now the stewards of the Earth.

Can you assume your role as Earth steward? No, it does not mean you go out on a campaign to “save the Earth.” She needs no saving. But can you breathe and allow your consciousness to gracefully change? That is all you need do. Breathe so deep into the very core of you that you release your fears and begin to become the true human.

Can you love yourself so much that you allow the consciousness to expand? Do it for yourself. You do not have to do it for Earth or anyone else. If you take care for yourself, you effect everything else. You do so now even in your fear. Do you not know that as you live in fear, you are effecting every thing–and everyone–else, also?

So dear ones, you can choose a shallow breath of fear, or you can choose the deep breathe of life.

Which do you choose?

It is not like a battle between good and evil forces. Rather, it is a ripple effect ever widening but never diminishing. The effect is like a guitar string when strummed. The guitar string reverberates and creates sound waves or vibrations which interacts with other objects. For example, a glass of water will begin to ripple if it is in close proximity to the guitar string.

A singer can shatter a glass when a certain frequency is maintained for a length of time. In much the same way as you continue your/our breath, your frequency expands and interacts with all other frequencies. How these other frequencies react is out of your control… or concern. You may have friends who begin to respond differently to you. Family members can comment or even become irritated by your presence. You, we assure you, have done nothing wrong. Your consciousness offers all who encounter it a choice. They may not be aware enough to know it or they have no explanation at all. others will be able to “explain” it away or rationalize their response to you. Some might even blame you. However, others may very likely want to ask you about what you are doing. They see you untouched by events of the day such as politics, mortgage crises, war, and other circumstances.

As the Earth changes intensify, there will be other opportunities for you to share your story with anyone who comes to you. You are and will be ready.

“Ruakh” is an ancient word for wind and breath. It was used extensively in ancient scripts to describe and explain, time and again, the importance of the breath of life. The Mayan word is “ik” (pronounced eek).

[Well, that's simple enough.]

Yes, indeed. Simplicity is the best approach to things, including issues of your time. The environment issues have simple solutions if you only stop thinking and talking about how “complicated” these issues are. You call them complicated because you are still looking for solutions in the same old ways and places. This is another reason why it is important to expand consciousness.

As consciousness expands, the effect will be that the scientists and people working on the issues will be able to look past the old procedures and problem-solving methods to a clearer approach and understanding. As consciousness expands, new ideas and insights will just “pop in” and the scientists will be so surprised and amazed at how simple the solutions are–and they were there right in front of them all the while.

Expansion of consciousness is necessary for the planet to evolve gracefully and with a much smaller impact on your lives than otherwise. The gentle breath will smoothly allow for transition and transformation as more and more humans are introduced to and begin to practice simply breathing consciously.

Allow you to feel again. Allow you the joy of living. And invite us to join you. Allow the pleasure of life. It is this enjoyment without judgment that comes to you as you breathe deeply All That You Are.

And so as we close our conversation with you, we will remind you to breathe in All That You Are. We are you and you are We.

In La’kech. [Mayan for "I am you and you are me."]

As you probably know by now, when you consider it, that things usually don’t happen that way. Transitions are usually more fluid. And so as you work through this month of January past and February, you will discover that slowly you will see that the changes are occurring. It is appropriate at this time that you begin to share your experiences with the group. And we would point out that there are no bad experiences or one experience is no better than another. To consider another person’s experience and think it is better than yours is a habit. Many Shaumbra still continue to look at the experience of others and diminish their own.

And so we ask you: “Writing a book” is not a beautiful experience? “Being aware that you are truly magnificent and powerful and that you can create miracles whenever you want” is not a beautiful experience?

We ask you to consider your habits. It is time, dear beloved masters, that you consider your habits.

You are ascended masters but as a human you have developed habits and routines and traditions over your life times that are now coming forward for you to bless and release and transform. It is time for you to respect and honor your experiences. Your mind may tell you they are small. We ask you to consult your heart. We ask you to consult gnost. Does your heart, does gnost, does your Higher Self, consider your experiences to be less than anyone’s? We suggest the answer is, “No!” You are a Divine Human! Your experience is yours and yours alone and it is to be honored. No matter how small or insignificant your mind tells you it is, we ask you to see what it really is.

Beloved Masters, we do not remind as a way of scolding or to treat you as a child. We speak directly now because we know you can see it for yourselves! Open you eyes to see. Feel yourself now. Feel the energy of you now as we speak! It is not our energy. It is your energy that you feel coursing over your body in the form or goosebumps or whatever it is that you experience. It is your experience. Too often, beloved masters, you give your experience away to us, or to some other channeler, or to Shaumbra.

We ask you to claim who are now! Claim this experience! Claim the experience of All That You Are now! Let your self feel that. Let this course through your veins to every part of your human body. Feel to your core All That You Are. Breath with this. Breathe this in! Take a deep breath and say Yes!” Say, “Yes!” to all that you are. Allow yourself to feel the joy and the love of All That You Are!

Beloved Masters, we honor you. We hold you in our hearts.
