			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yesterday, I had a dream about unlocking and opening doors. I could look through the keyhole of each door but that only gave me a very narrow view of what was behind the door. Each room contained potentials and experiences I had hidden and locked away for many lifetimes including this one. I realized that in order to find out what was waiting behind each door I would have to unlock and open it.</p>
<p>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 <a title="The Undiscovered Country" href="http://www.thenewgnostic.com/2007/08/undiscovered-country/" target="_blank">Undiscovered Country</a> of our Soul. We are deeply afraid, some of us, of what lies behind each door.</p>
<p>Perhaps it is the fear of our Soul Selves that keeps us from turning the key to unlock the potentials&#8230;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 <em>knowing</em> all that I AM?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Greetings, dear ones. We are the Council of Light and we love you dearly.</p>
<p>You are embarked upon a voyage into the world of the unknown. Unknown potentials. Unknown Earth. Unknown lives. You are the bravest of souls because you have chosen to go before the others. You have been told of this before. You have felt it but you do not believe it. You doubt your bravery and courage even as you continue blazing the trails into the unknown world of your creations.</p>
<p><span id="more-50"></span></p>
<p>We tell you now that you are the great ones&#8212;your energies and essences expand outwardly and inwardly simultaneously at even greater depths and speed.</p>
<p>You choose ascension even when you have no clear understanding of what that means. You continue to say, &#8220;Yes!&#8221; to All That You are&#8212;even as the aches and pains rack your bodies, even as you adjust and acclimate to the new energies. You continue to say, &#8220;Yes!&#8221; to the new adventures and challenges of allowing All That You Are to manifest in physical form.</p>
<p>Your bodies are acclimating rapidly but sometimes they do not keep pace with the work you are doing. You do not need to fear that something is wrong if you have discomfort or pain. You have carried the load for others and your aspects for so long that your bodies are now reluctant to let go the burden. It is familiar to you to carry the weight of the world&#8212;to be the energy holders. You do so from habit.</p>
<p>We remind you  that you can let go of that responsibility. Your work is done. You are free to be the Creators in your fullness and limitlessness. You are free to be All That You Are. There is nothing that stands in your way except you for you have carried your beliefs about responsibility for so long it is hard to relinquish those aspects that cry out for freedom and integration.</p>
<p>You may wonder how freedom and integration can be. Freedom to integrate with All That You Are is what we mean. To hold your aspects even the dark ones at arm&#8217;s length keeps them in bondage. As long as you do not accept them, they are bound to you, but not free to come home. Your rejection of any one of your aspects does not allow that aspect to come home to You. Open your hearts, your Souls, to every aspect, every part of you, that you have ever been.</p>
<p>It is time, dear ones, to accept Your Selves as the Great Divine Ones you really are. You need not fear Your Selves for you are such Love and Compassion that you can never harm yourselves or any other being. It is impossible.</p>
<p>Oh, dear ones, we hear you cry out often in silence to us when you are in pain. We can only respond in love and compassion, just as your Soul Self responds to you with love and open arms. She is always ready to step close to you as close as you will allow.</p>
<p>It is your choice, dear ones. Yours and yours alone.</p>
<p>We invite you to breathe in your Soul Self. It is through the breath that you release your fears and doubts. It is the Breath of Love that brings you into the arms of All That You Are. You forget to breathe but we always remind you to breathe.</p>
<p>Yours is not an intellectual process. It is through breath that you discover the undiscovered country of You, the great country of All That You Are.</p>
<p>Allow yourselves to discover the Love and Compassion that is Who You Are.</p>
<p>We stand in awe of you and all that you continue to do.</p>
<p>We are the Council of Light and we love you dearly.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We are always pleased we are able to join you in this time on earth when you are indeed moving forward at an amazing pace.</p>
<p>We want you to know that you have achieved beyond our greatest expectation, beyond our greatest imagination. You have succeeded in raising the level of consciousness not only of yourselves but also of the Earth, the forms around the earth, the greater part of your solar system, and also of the cosmos in general.You have been steadfast in your work.</p>
<p>And we so honor your work for you have done what many of us chose not to do. You chose to allow your frequencies to slowly over time decrease and descend more deeply and more deeply into what you now call the physical realm. This was an experiment that you all agreed to. And this experiment, dear ones, has worked. You made it work.</p>
<p>There were those of us on this side of the veil who believed that it would not work. Indeed there are those who wished to prevent the experiment. Why they opposed this experiment we will share with you at another time, maybe at a more appropriate time. We will say that these energies continue to work with those on the planet who wish to prevent the changes from coming through. But we tell you now that you have succeeded. You, the God Seeds, the Star Seeds, who allowed yourselves to become physical, to become human, and then remember who you are. Dear ones, this was no small feat we assure you, and we honor you deeply for it.</p>
<p>And now we come to this theme that many of you have been discussing. The changes within your body, the aches and pains that you currently feel. We tell you this is normal for the process requires change. And within your very cells, within your DNA, are occurring remarkable awakenings and changes that if you could only see you would be amazed. It would make the aches and pains that you feel now seem so insignificant, so trivial. But we understand that in the physical they seem to be very real and they are in your awareness. And much of what you have said and written to each other is exactly true. Breathe it in, accept what is going on. Realize that nothing is wrong. Realize that everything if right. That everything is perfect.</p>
<p>Oh, dear ones, we want to share with you the energy. Feel the energy behind the words, feel what we feel. See what we see when we talk with you this way. The changes that are going on, are remarkable for you are indeed calling in your Soul Self to integrate and meld with your physical self. You are allowing your physical personality, your physical self, your ego, your mind, to become a co-creator with All You Are, with your Higher Self. Your Higher Self in turn is calling in the energies of all [That You Are] and integrating all the pieces and parts of you that were scattered when you agreed to go through this process.</p>
<p>We ask that you continue your work, that you continue to breathe in &#8220;Yes&#8221; to All That You Are.</p>
<p>Breathe in &#8220;Yes&#8221; continue to say &#8220;Yes.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Yes, I Am God Also.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Yes, I Am All That I Am.&#8221;</p>
<p>Dear ones, breathe with this now. Allow yourselves to feel our love for you. Allow us to touch you on the shoulder and energetically embrace you and hold you close to our hearts. For you are indeed honored and loved.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Greetings, dear ones. We are the Council of Light and we are here to help you realize who you really are, each and every one of you.</p>
<p>There is so much love for you and honor for what you have accomplished that there are many from all over your universe who have come. Some are here to pay their respects, others out of curiosity, for the word has spread that the Great Experiment didn&#8217;t fail this time. There were to be no more attempts for as was agreed there could only be so many. This was the last. But you did it! You changed all that. You are indeed grand beings of light.</p>
<p>What we wish to speak of today is a subject that has been little discussed. It is one that we feel you are ready to hear and one that you can hear.</p>
<p>Sometime in your past there was an event that shattered your world as you knew it. There was a time of great peace and harmony across your planet of Earth and there was tremendous progress being made. You were free to discover your Higher Selves and purposes. This was a time similar to your stories of Camelot but it wasn&#8217;t Camelot. This was a time before Camelot. There was great communication among the peoples of the land. It was thought by many of the guardians that this was the beginning of the success of the experiment. There was great rejoicing on this side of the veil.</p>
<p>There were in those days, as now, those entities who had opposed the experiment and had never really agreed to it, not even the smallest compromise. They felt that if the experiment were to actually succeed that their power and authority would be in question.</p>
<p>How could these ones (humans) who had taken on the task be worthy in a sense to be doing that work? These opposing entities wanted, as now, to keep things exactly as they were. Some of them began to take human form and began to infiltrate the societies that were flourishing in those days.</p>
<p>These &#8220;newcomers,&#8221; we will call them, began to spread discontent among the populations. They would tell of accomplishment by others and began to compare cultures. It seemed that some were more successful than others. Differences began to be noticed more and more. As this discontent grew, some of the newcomers began to explain to &#8220;their people&#8221; how they might be able to attain or in some instances obtain what others had.</p>
<p>Keep in mind that the newcomers infiltrated all cultures and worked with each other to develop the discontent. However, the Earth peoples did not know of the relationship among the newcomers, except a few of the wise ones who would warn of the problems with these destructive ideas being introduced by newcomers.</p>
<p>It is not that we say the newcomers were evil. They were attempting to keep things the way they had been. Who had every heard of Spirit descending into the density of physicality? It was beneath the dignity of such beings to so lower themselves. It was degrading in a way, from their point of view. Why not continue as before? Why pursue such imaginings?</p>
<p>And so it was that they set out to subvert the Experiment. What if these results would mean that somehow the volunteers would gain even greater significance and standing? Why they might become even as God. And no one was greater than that, so they reasoned.</p>
<p>And so it was that the ideas of ownership of things and who owned what and who didn&#8217;t and how they could begin to obtain their fair share were born. The eons old rivalries began anew, hearkening back to those times in the void when each entity sought what they thought they had to get what they needed.</p>
<p>The powers which the people had discovered began to be used against neighboring cultures. The advances in science and technologies began to be used in ways designed to weaken the perceived enemies.</p>
<p>As the struggles grew so did the weapons of destruction. There were a few voices raised in warning but so many had come to believe that they had to do what &#8220;needed to be done&#8221; to save themselves.</p>
<p>Escalation followed escalation until each side was weakened. Eventually, as always the ultimate weapon was designed as a deterrent to war. It was dubbed, &#8220;the Peacemaker.&#8221;</p>
<p>And make peace it did. After it was finally used by one of the factions, so total was the destruction that there was nothing left to fight for&#8230; or die for.</p>
<p>Peace returned to the land. But not in the way a few had envisioned.</p>
<p>We share this story with you in order to illustrate what you have done.</p>
<p>You were on the same path as the ancients in our story. But his time, unlike so man times before, you didn&#8217;t go along, you didn&#8217;t listen to those that recited the old beliefs and religions of difference and separation. You didn&#8217;t follow the teachings of old that were founded in fear and segregation.</p>
<p>You chose a different way.</p>
<p>At a cellular, core level you listened to your hearts, not your fears. Oh, it was not easy for you. So many of you chose to be born into fear-based families and beliefs. So many of you were frightened, so many times. For some, even your fathers, mothers, and brothers and sisters frightened, misused, and abused you. Yet, you chose a different way. The way of the heart for you know as the beloved Yeshua knew, &#8220;they know not what they do.&#8221; Through your struggles and through your pain, you chose to see things not as it was, but as it ought to be as your musical, &#8220;Man of La Mancha&#8221; has reminded you.</p>
<p>Dear ones, we want yo to know just how much you are honored and loved. Oh, if you could only see yourselves as we see you. The brilliance, the capacity of love that you have is truly awesome for us to behold. And we rejoice for we know that one day soon, you will be able to see what we see, to know what we know.</p>
<p>Someday you will know what you have done. You have changed the universe. <em>You have changed us.</em> Did you know that? You have freed us to become more and more of what we are. You have allowed us to move to other levels as well. And we so honor you and think you for it.</p>
<p>And now we wish to pause for a moment at this time. Just take a moment now and allow us to touch you. Allow yourselves to feel that touch on the shoulder, that wash of love around you, that wave of chills that has become so familiar to so many of you.</p>
<p>Yes, dear ones, it is true. We are here and we rejoice that you are able to once again recognize us, our energy that we have so often sent to you, even when we knew that you could not recognize the love.</p>
<p>We leave you now, but we don&#8217;t ever really leave. We just withdraw for a brief time until it is time to once again come to visit at your invitation, with your permission.</p>
<p>Dear ones, we are the Council of Light, and we love you so dearly.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the area of human growth, we would say that there has never been a time or opportunity like now on this planet. While there have been many advanced civilizations on this planet besides Atlantis and Lemuria, humans have surpassed any and all of those civilizations. In some ways, these societies developed amazing technologies but they never reached the heights that current humans have on a spiritual level.</p>
<p>Never before has there been the opportunity to expand consciousness throughout the universe. In fact there were many who thought this effort would fail also. Earth Experiment had virtually been dismissed as a failure. But you humans changed all that when you decided to move beyond war and destruction. Enough of you stopped believing in the old ways that were not working. You saw that the things that had been taught and tried for centuries were no longer valid. &#8220;What had changed?&#8221; you asked.<br />
<span id="more-13"></span><br />
You began to question the old ways and many were born who had no concept of those beliefs and values. Together you changed everything. Gone was global destruction and disease scenario. You began to believe there was another way. You weren&#8217;t sure what that would be but you knew that there could be a better world. You began to dream. You dreamed of a time when the Earth would be pristine once again. You dreamed of a time when humanity would look upon one another with deep love, respect and compassion. You dreamed of a time when your life would be free from disease, anger and pain. You dreamed that heaven had come to Earth. Home had come to you.</p>
<p>And so it is that you have created Heaven on Earth. Oh, the residue of the old way persists, but you changed the ending of the play. You dear Earth Angels have brought the love energies to Earth in such a way and with such force that all other vibrations will soon attune themselves with the new.</p>
<p>We will remind you at this time that the new energies are not static. They are continually shifting and changing along with human consciousness. Do not think that there is or will be a finite end to these changes. That can never be so. These changes are evolutionary. Your imaginations, while fertile, have not grasped the grandeur and promise of what you have accomplished. Instead of an end, there is a beginning. It is truly a never-ending story. For as you imagination expands and awakens further you will create what has never been dreamed. You are the dreamers the creators of the new worlds. If only you could see what you have done already, you would not believe it. You will see in time and your astonishment will be great indeed.</p>
<p>For now, the veil is still in place but we tell you that it is but for a very short time. You are awakening at such a pace that even we are astonished. We never thought you could go so far so fast. But you have. You are. We are so pleased. We bow to you for we are truly in awe of the human angels who sacrificed their memories of home to expand the consciousness of God. You volunteered time and time again. You are the explorers, the discoverers. And you have exceeded all expectations. This you will know soon. You will see. You will believe.</p>
<p>Dear human angels we want you to know how dearly you are loved. We are so honored to be part of the great experiment. We yearn for the time when the veil will be gone and we can once again commune with you as we do on the other side of the veil.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Now we will turn to another subject. This is of great interest to you because you have so many beliefs surrounding what you call &#8220;the afterlife.&#8221; We find this somewhat amusing since there is only life. We, of course, know you are referring to after physical life but we would remind you that there is no death. There is transition and change.</p>
<p>On of the great questions you have is regarding past lives or reincarnation. There is in some of your religions a rejection of the idea of post lives. We tell you now that in some respects that is truth from the stand point of there being no past really. But in the illusion you have created for yourselves, there is a past and past lives. You created this so that you could experience as many different aspects of physical life as possible.<br />
<span id="more-12"></span><br />
We will tell you now that the idea of karma as many of you see it is not accurate. Karma is not a form of justice. It is not a way of reward and punishment. While the idea of reaping what you sow is appealing to many, that is not the way things work. The idea is based on beliefs that the things people do are recorded and in one lifetime or another they will receive some reward or punishment of equal measure.</p>
<p>Another belief surrounding karma is that one must try in each lifetime to build up the good karma so that one receives the benefits in each succeeding lifetimes the rewards are greater and greater. This also has another aspect that one continues to grow spiritually through good works and deeds and then eventually one no longer &#8220;has&#8221; to come back to make corrections to previous mistakes.</p>
<p>We say again that these ideas are not accurate.</p>
<p>Each lifetime is pre-planned by your before you ever incarnate. This is not the same thing as predestination. You always have free will on your planet you can change the plan at any time, though most of you do not since you do not recall ever having planned the experience previously. What actually occurs is that you all plan the roles and experiences with each other in advance. Often these are role reversals in order to experience a variety of lives and to experiment with how these experiences might help each other to progress to the point of actually beginning to remember who you really are.</p>
<p>These experiences have nothing to do with rewards and punishments. They have to do with the experience of being in the physical world in order to raise the vibration to the point of being able to experience the Divine Self while still in physical form. This is actually ascension and that is the purpose which you created.</p>
<p>The experiment generally speaking was to descend into high density matter and then ascend to the point of &#8220;reuniting&#8221; with your Divine Spirit. It is an experiment to see if spirit and flesh could merge without necessitating the &#8220;elimination&#8221; of either. In other words, was it possible to move into another lifetime or lifetimes without going through physical death?</p>
<p>There were many &#8220;angels&#8221; who volunteered to participate in the experiment. A small planet was chosen for the experiment. It was in an out of the way location and it was under the protection of the Archangels. They were to insure that the &#8220;lab&#8221; would not be interfered with by entities who did not agree with the experiment. There were many guardians who were sent as well, many of whom are in human form. Others are here in spirit form.</p>
<p>These guardians you might wish to call them guardian angels, do not forget who they are and where then are from. They are here to &#8220;guard&#8221; against the darkness taking over. It is not necessarily so that these &#8220;demons&#8221; as you might call them are evil. It is just that they do not wish things to change because they have great powered in the old energy. They were given great power by humans who were fearful and, as humans become stronger, they begin to take back the power they have been giving away. Now it is the &#8220;dark ones&#8221; who are frightened of losing their power. They do not realize that the power can be transformed and can be used to move forward with the rest of the universe.</p>
<p>The energy, as you know, has shifted. The energy of light has expanded to such a an extant that the guardians purpose has shifted as well. This has and will cause pain for many of them as the purpose changes. Some will actually not be able to adjust to these changes and will return home. While there is no judgment about this, it a time of terrible adjustment for many of them will have a sense of failure and will undergo a period of intense self-examination to deal with this sense of failure. As we said this a very intense procedure and may continue for a long period of time from an Earth perspective.</p>
<p>The ones who are able to stay will and are suffering as well. They came to do a particular job and now that service is no longer needed and they now must shift to a different purpose. Many of them were dreadfully pained when the World Trade Center event occurred. They all knew they could have prevented the events and those in the Middle East if they had been allowed. They are in pain over this but they have a strong sense of duty and commitment to Divine Will.</p>
<p>They well stay as long as necessary to work with other humans and angels who are awakening. These guardians realize that the awakening ones will take over the tasks that are now being performed by the guardians. The Guardians wish to return home as soon as possible and so they are working continuously and tirelessly to continue the transformation to the new energies.</p>
<p>As this transformation continues, these guardians will slowly return to their places on the &#8220;other side of the veil.&#8221; Humans will take on more and more of the responsibility of Earth/Solar System stewardship. This transfer of power is happening very rapidly now. The tide has turned so to speak.</p>
<p>The energies are intensifying in your Middle East as the transfer continues. There are forces which are desperate to hold on to power and there are humans who are cooperating with those forces. These are not evil humans. They are out of touch with their Divine Selves and are turning to powers that they believe they can use for their own power on Earth.</p>
<p>This conflict will continue for some months perhaps years as the energy to destroy is depleted. They will eventually tire of the conflict when they see that neither side is gaining an advantage.</p>
