Preparing For and Working with the SHIFT
Preparing For and Working with the SHIFT

PART 1: Understanding the SHIFT
This world is a gloriously  mysterious place, of which we know just a little bit about!

We are currently in the midst of  undergoing a major planetary shift ...moving into a higher vibration,
exiting the paradigms of the Piscean  Age and entering into the Aquarian  Age.  I sort of liken it to the
following analogy...when I was a kid growing up in Philly, my parents would take us for trips into center
city.  On each visit there was always a construction site we would pass by. These sites would have
large wooden fences surrounding them, and at various points there would be these peep holes that
you could look through to see what was going on.  We would look through one hole and see a portion
of what was going on directly in front of that hole, with limited peripheral vision.  Then we would move
to the next hole and see another aspect.  This continued until we looked through all the holes, which
then gave us separate points of view of this much larger picture that was being explored. Now with the
current planetary SHIFT the size of these holes is enlarging, affording us a broader view, although still
limited. With this SHIFT will be much dissolving of the old ways of existing, to be replaced with the new
ways of  living.  

Some responses will be: 1)  to  resist it completely... 2) to be hesitant to move forward...3) to embrace
it with open arms....4) or to fall somewhere in between.  But the fact remains-- it is happening. How we
choose to respond will make the transition either very uncomfortable or somewhat easier to handle.  

What Will We be Likely  to See?

Dissolving/Ending of Relationships
that have reached their natural state of completion, which no
longer are serving the highest good of the individuals involved by staying together...have you noticed
in the last year or so, more couples you know splitting up? Ending long term relationships or
marriages?  In part, I feel this is occurring so that each person can move forward in their personal
spiritual evolution to complete the path they have set for themselves when entering into this world.
Hanging onto relationships that don't work, which lack the co-operative nature of enhancing and
supporting each other's development will be more uncomfortable to maintain in the new energies.

People Relocating...more and more individuals, couples, and families are relocating to other areas, at
far away distances...some are unable to explain why they are moving or how they selected the location,
it is almost like some homing device is in place to get them where they need to be during these
transitional times. Many I know personally, both relatives and friends have been going through this
process over the past year.

Breaking Down of the Old World Order...the falling apart of long traditional seats of power, where a
few control the masses.  People at grassroot  levels are awakening to the fact that being led down a
path which is controlled by the "power forces",  for the limited benefit of a few,  isn't going to continue to
be accepted. Cooperation for the betterment  of all humanity is the new energy.  There will be struggles
as the old resists loosening their grip on power, but united cooperation will prevail.  Often there is such
a great degree of chaos and upheaval, that people question that this is really occuring...but think about
it...does change emerge when things are going well and smoothly, or is change born in the bowels of
chaos which transforms that energy into order?

Increase in Natural Disasters...Mother Earth has been badly misaligned by us humans and she is
reaching her capacity of taking on this level of treatment.  Much of what we have destroyed and polluted
needs to be corrected, this will occur through a purification process that purges the toxicity we have
embedded on the earth. We are definitely going to see more of this.

Back to Nature...our sense of spirituality is intricately interwoven with all that surrounds us.  We are not
gods of this world who have a higher value than all other organisms and beings.  We will begin to
reconnect with nature, to learn many life lessons.  We will begin to recognize that we are all in this
together, in equal standing, each contributing in our own unique way to the betterment of life.  We all
come from the ALL THAT IS and we all contain the energetic seed of ALL THAT IS, therefore we will
begin to incorporate this awareness from our soul level into our daily living.  This will bring about a
respect and honoring of all that exists, as sacred and blessed.  When we spend our time in this state
of awareness, we accelerate change, our vibrational rate increases, and everyone and everything
benefits.  

Moving from Competition to Cooperation...the nature of competition naturally pits one against the
other...this has been an overall theme of the way we live...from our government, business, education,
etc. No realm of living has been exempt.  As souls we are evolving beyond this to the next higher step
which is cooperative living...again bringing in the idea of respecting and honoring all aspects, working
for the greater development of all. Think about the energy of the 3rd chakra--that of personal power,
and the 4th chakra--that of unconditional love...that is what it is symbolic of...moving from a 3rd
dimension state of living on this planet to the higher vibrational rate of the 4th dimension.

More Gifted Children Are Arriving...have you noticed the spiritual nature of the young children these
days?  Spend a few hours with any 2-6 year old and you will be blown away by the light energy they are
giving off.  I feel older, wiser souls are entering into the world at this time, in mass,  to bring their
wisdom and compassion to assist in the changes. It is a beautiful thing to observe.

Listening More to Our Inner Voice...so what is our Inner Voice? It is our soul self speaking to us. As
children we had the natural capacity to easily connect, which like muscles that are not used, began to
atrophy, as it was conditioned out of us,  replaced with the ever present voices of  outer authority.
Eventually many of us placed more value on things we were told outside of ourselves, and repeatedly
questioned the Inner Voice's wisdom.  This SHIFT will help us reconnect, to become more clearly
aligned with our soul self that has accumulated many, many lifetimes of wisdom and knowledge from
which we can draw.

Personal Releasing of the Old to Make Way for the New...in order to live within the newer, lighter,
higher vibrational patterns, we are required to let go of old patterns that are anchored in 3rd dimension
reality. So what exactly does this mean?  It has many implications...old belief systems that are not in
sync with the newer energies need to be let go of... Think about what happens when we place  the
north and south pole of two magnets toward each other.. they repel, are pushed apart... that is
somewhat like trying to take 3rd dimension beliefs into the 4th dimension, it simply will not come
together. It involves dissolving fears, letting go of all that does not serve the higher good.  This is a tall
order, not one that can be accomplished overnight, and one that will require our constant attention...to
monitoring thoughts, beliefs, actions, etc

This also requires strengthening our immune systems...what are we putting into our bodies?  What is
the foundational base of the foods we eat and the liquids we drink that are used to sustain the physical
body?  We need to be placing the highest vibrational quality food/liquids into our systems if we wish to
be free of the ties of the cycle of toxicity leading to illness leading to medications leading to more
illness followed by more medication, etc

The detoxification process of releasing will be challenging but is unavoidable and a necessary step in
our evolution.

Accessing the Healer Within...we were born with the capacity to self-heal. When we go exploring with
our Inner Voice, we learn so much that will help us with this process.  Information.. opportunities...
awarenss... all will be within reach as our eyes become unveiled and our ears unplugged...these are
exciting times!

There are many more things I know I'm leaving out, but it is a starting point of things to consider and to
be aware of.  As we do the work required, our bodies adjust to the new energy frequencies...this is not
an easy transition...this SHIFT can be downright painful and physically tiring at times, and can last for
several weeks to months.  Just be aware that if you start to enter into this phase that when you come
out the other end of the tunnel, it will have been well worth the ride. Our assistance is going to be
needed by many who start the process later and/or are really struggling with the challenges of the
transition. As we move more into this SHIFT some of the items listed above will greatly intensify...we
need to be prepared, we have an integral supporting role to play.
