Personal Jail
I heard a quote recently: “Punishment always arrives when we seek it.”
If you have heard anything about the Lion’s Gate Portal lately, you know that it is a period of where energy is high for manifesting between July 28 and August 12, with the strongest day being 8/8. If you didn’t know, don’t worry. This energy is available to you all year round, it’s just that energy increases as more people tune into it, so it makes sense that when many people focus their energy at one time BIG things happen.
Do you see where this is going?
If we are manifesting punishment, individually or collectively, we surely will get it!
First on the individual level: If I am believing something I think is negative and acting like it’s a “done deal”, I am calling it to me. This can be anything – filing my taxes and believing the IRS is going to audit me, thinking bad thoughts about someone and believing I’m going to get hurt or ill because of my thoughts, having something really great happen (like winning a beach vacation) and believing it needs to be balanced out so I’ll probably crash my car or lose my job now.
What I’m doing through my joy in these situations is manifesting punishment.
The angels want us all to know that we can have joy without punishment. Joy is our birthright and it is important that we soak it up and are grateful for it in the moment. This brings us more joy! It is manifestation of personal joy.
For the collective level: When we believe that the damage that we have done to the planet means that we deserve mass destruction from fires, floods, and earthquakes, we are calling those to us in our energetic frequency. When we think that we deserve injustice, corruption, or war because of our failings (even in an us vs. them mentality), energetically we are calling more injustice, corruption, and war to our world.
In order to change the world we are living in, we need to change the frequency of our beliefs to the world we want to live in. No one deserves to live in fear. However, the only way to change the frequency is to believe in the energy of love. Act as if the world we want to live in is already here. It is the acting “as if” that it becomes reality – and the more of us that are acting “as if” the more energy there will be bringing this idyllic world into existence.
Our thoughts can be a jail, the ultimate punishment. As we marinate in fear our minds look for more things to be fearful of. When we do this collectively, the collective energy turns our fears into reality.
Changing our thoughts takes a bit of redirection, but sometimes it’s as simple as moving. Think about times when you walk into a room and forget why – it's the same concept. Get into a different room, face a different direction, or even stand up and spin in a circle. The very action creates a new perspective, and this new perspective allows us to leave the jail our mind created and manifest a new reality. This is our opportunity to focus on healing love.
I recently had the opportunity to watch Avatar again. The magic of the Mother Tree, or the Tree of Souls, is interconnection of all life. The recognition of this connection is sacred to the Na’vi people and in and of itself healing.
We, too, may suffer destruction from outside forces, especially if we allow them to destroy us from within. The way to combat the destruction is to remember we are all connected to each other. Healing comes from our ability to see our connectedness to all life.
