CHAPTER 12

CHANGING REALITIES

The prophecies of old told a tale so sad

And many believed that our future was bad.

But if we look into ourselves fully now

To see beyond what was destined somehow

We’ll find new reality and a future of light

And know we can walk on this path, oh so bright.

The path to the future can go either way

Are you prepared to step into the New Day?

Throughout the ages, prophets have predicted dire consequences and a terrible war for these times we are now facing. Yet if we read into the predictions far enough we will see that there are alternative predictions where mankind can choose his own future depending on his readiness to change his reality. Either reality is valid. Those that cling to the old way will find that for them, chaos and devastation are indeed taking over the world. Yet for those who see hope and light in this world, they will find peace and a new future of hope.

We do have the power to change our reality through our thoughts, prayers and meditations. During the Israeli-Lebanese war of 1988, people all over the world meditated and prayed in a mass purpose to stop the impending war. Just moments before the US was to launch their bombs, an agreement was signed and sent to the president just in the nick of time following the mass meditationof people throughout the world. James Twyman also showed us that there is hope through prayers. When he when to the troubled countries on his mission, people all over the world prayed when he was singing his peace songs. It created a change in the reality of those countries he was in.

Many of us are facing a new reality. It is one that takes them out of their little 'safe' world into a reality that belongs in a different world. They are finding it difficult to let go of their many conditionings and judgments, as the reality they are finding is one which stretches them in all directions at once. They are also in the process of shifting vibrations, which often throws them out of balance as they try to re-adjust to this new and different type of reality. These changes are occurring to almost every soul on earth in one way or another. The Clarion call is out to all of the light workers to be fully aware of the battle which will split the solar system into two separate realities and the outcomes will be very real for all life forms in both systems. We can no longer afford to sit on the fence. We have to make our decision which side we want to be on.

There are many extraterrestrial souls from different worlds now here in human bodies. Many have not awoken to their true identity. Many could well be reading this book. There are many souls, both in and around this planet, who are also working to help the planet awaken. They are working towards the ultimate goal of lifting our reality into a wider scope so that we may see that we are not this small body in this little planet, but a part of a far greater scheme which the Creator has designed for all of us. We, and all those - both in spirit and in the realities of space, are all part of one great Creation. We have reached a point in our planet's history where all things will unfold as surely as the new day dawns. We are on a path moving into new realities that will encompass us in a great expansion of warmth. We may not see it at the time we face our struggles, as we are often so encumbered by our fears. Sometimes these can be so great that we can be blinded throughout the experience. Yet the ultimate goal is to expand our realities to become who we were always meant to be - a realisation of our part in the Universe.

For the last hundred or so years, and particularly throughout the past fifty years, people have been becoming exposed to interplanetary beings of many varieties.

They are working towards raising the consciousness of the planet and are contacting earth beings in an effort to achieve this. Some earth beings are actually from these higher dimensions, and have stepped down in an effort to assist in the planet's awakening. They are doing a great service, yet many do not even know of the other realities that they work in, while they are living a third-dimensional physical life.

According to Ronna Herman Archangel Michael tells us we are "left vulnerable without an identity we can relate to or parameters to guide us". We are releasing all we thought was important in our third dimensional reality - relationships, possessions and our perception of who we thought we were.

We will gradually take on higher frequencies and more refined energy and become more comfortable with our fourth dimensional realities. Our emotional energies are coming forth from our subconscious mind and cleaning out all the old outworn perceptions we have held. The pulsating light frequencies reverberating throughout our cellular structures are breaking loose all the impacted energies that accumulated down through the ages, stirring them up and moving them out to be released throughout our cellular structure. This allows our Christ-Self to take residency in our vessels.

We may feel we have taken a step backward when we suddenly manifest sudden dramatic illnesses but these things are being released from our bodies so we may move forward and give ourselves as gifts to humanity. When we feel a void or sense of loss, we are tapping into the higher frequencies of our being and allowing it to penetrate the very core of our physical and emotional part of ourselves, releasing any corresponding negative energies that resonate at a lower frequency. Because time is changing so rapidly, we are moving through these changes at an unprecedented rate, and we often feel giddy as we experience the shifting realities within our lives.

It is not that we are being forced to step out of the way of the life we have always known. It is that the way of life we have known is no longer there for us. We are shifting vibrations. We are moving into an age of enlightenment where the things we may judge as a negative experience, may not be as they seem. These incidents are an awakening to our soul in order for us to move forward through the experience into the path we had chosen before our birth, but had forgotten about. It is like these experiences are a trigger - a point of change, which we have been waiting for and one which has been on our soul's agenda. It is an experience, which is triggered by the catalyst of the experience, which often shocks us, or forces us into seeing things in a different light, in order to awaken us.

We have so much to learn, and once we can look at life from this higher perspective, we will be more able to see that it is our fears, our conditioning and our judgments, that have held us back. The greed of mankind in general has been one of the greatest drawbacks to achieving an enlightened race of beings. We have become obsessed with placing other races, other religions, and other creeds in boxes of their own, causing great separation, bitterness and hatred among mankind. If we had instead begun to embrace all of humanity as one, we would have come so much further towards reaching a point of Universal Consciousness. We would then have been more fully ready to join the Brotherhood of Light in the Galactic Federation.

Nothing is without consequence in the ever-changing vibrational shift of the planet. The space beings are helping to assist the planet as it moves through these changes. They are assisting us to face a new reality. Without their help, and those of all souls working in the etheric and higher dimensions, our earth would have seen far more loss of life. They are helping us achieve ascension in much less time than it would have taken, had it been left to the human race to evolve on its own. This, combined with the incarnation of so many advanced souls, has brought the planet to a higher vibration than had previously been thought possible. The last measurement of human consciousness was taken in 1987 at the Harmonic Convergence, and the next one is due in 2013. As more people's vibrations are raised, the loss of life is less. We are being prepared to live on a much higher vibrational level and this will occur possibly within the next twenty to fifty years of our lifetimes. Our bodies are actually being altered by our own Source, as a means of extending both longevity and quality of life. We are being assisted greatly by our space brothers.

Throughout the history of our planet there has always been interaction from the space brothers. They came originally and seeded our planet. So many variations of sentient beings have visited us since, that we now have one of the most diverse life forms of flora and fauna in our entire galaxy. The human form is the only one that, although different in skin colour and features, is basically the same genetically. This is why our planet holds so much interest to all those who have come, either out of the willingness to help, or from idle curiosity. It truly is a wonderful time for the planet and for the human race. It is through facing our fears, our difficulties and our challenges, that we grow. We are not only a spark of God-All-That-Is, but encompass the whole of Creator within ourselves. Our space brothers are showing us what we have only hitherto forgotten. We never learn anything we don't already know. We have so much knowledge within our own soul that it is just a matter of being awakened to this greater reality.

Reality is relevant to our time, our place and our connection to All-That-Is. We have reached a point in the history of mankind where we are ready to move on. It is time to let go of what we have been taught, and reach within to what we know. Are we ready to join the human race as it transitions into a greater reality?

We appear to be in a world of multi-dimensional realities. When the September 11, 2001, tragedy occurred, it split the way people saw life in the known world for so many. People’s vulnerability was heightened and what had always been a ‘normal’ reality appeared to be no more. A huge fissure had opened for them. Nothing was as it was before. For many it must have been a nightmare that didn’t end. The veil between the realities of light and dark, positive and negative, good and evil seems to have widened. We are sometimes partially in one world, and partially in another. We often don’t know which is the ‘real’ world.

As we enter this time of unchartered territory we will find our old illusions are shattered and we will be entering a time of great awakening. What we have trusted to be stable will no longer be able to stand in the new realities being thrust upon us. Our reality is an enigma. We do not know which, or what, reality is the real one. We want to believe everything is stable and solid, but as everything falls around us, we are finding out just how vulnerable we are. The openness and realness of this fragility are painfully uncomfortable to bear.

From the beginning of our recorded time, prophets from St John of Revelations to Nostradamus, and as recently as Edgar Cayce in the early half of the twentieth century, have told of dire consequences for the end of "the world". Cataclysms and chaos, war and pestilence were predicted…but there was also an underlying second prediction for those that followed the path of God. When St John asked the angel "Is there no hope?" the voice replied, "There is always hope, O thou for whom heaven and earth were created…"

We can walk the path with our higher consciousness knowing there is not only hope but a new reality, a new world and a new chance for mankind. It is up to us to decide which reality we want take. The gap between realities is widening and it will soon become obvious just how great a chasm exists between the two realities. We can no longer afford to sit on the fence. It is time to decide which side we want to go with. We can no longer straddle both worlds. We can overcome the old world ‘realities’ by refusing to be a victim and taking full responsibility for everything in our lives. This is hard for those who have always felt they were victimised. We must realise that we do create our own realities by our very thoughts and by our belief systems. When we have learned that we chose this path for a learning experience, then we have come far, and we can advance to the next stage of our awakening.

Part of our growth is to understand how gratitude works in our lives. We also need to learn to overcome our feeling of lack of abundance. It is gratitude that brings things into our lives as we accept we are worthy of them. It also lifts up our heavy load, and as we give, we in turn, receive from the Creator. We need compassion and love to overcome feelings of anger, as we need to see difficulties and struggle as gifts of lessons in themselves. Any resentment or envy we hold can be turned into something positive by being grateful for the lessons it has taught us.

Each time we are frustrated by delays or obstacles in our path, we can accept that Creator knows the best timing of all things for us. There is perfection in Creation and it is our chance to learn to trust in that perfection. Obstacles are just opportunities for further growth, as we accept them as a way of learning to overcome them.

Our loneliness is self-directed. We are never alone ­ we only think we are. As we express love for everything around us, be in animate or inanimate, we are making a conscious choice to allow everything in our lives to have a purpose. We create our own companionship by allowing all things to have their place.

We are told that spirit is always there just waiting for us to ask. All our problems and obstacles are only what we believe them to be. Even our work life which we often say we hate so much, is only so because we have perceived it that way. If we do want to create a new reality within our lives, the best way to do this is to focus on what we really want. Let our imagination do the work. Let our imagination be our guiding light as we imagine the world as we want it to be. This is the greatest way to bring our reality into the one we want it to be.

It is important in moving through to this new reality, to focus on giving to ourself also. When we have low self-esteem we are allowing our negative ego to be in charge and not letting our Higher Selves reside. It is important to find a balance of energies within ourselves, as we need to allow others their place also. As this new reality begins in our lives, we are waiting in great anticipation. We do not know the exact timing but we know that it will happen. For each, the timing will be perfect. Accepting that all is as it should be will accelerate the process in God’s good grace.

I have been told :

When man finds the peace within him he will see peace in the outer world. If man resists the coming changes, through his own refusal to accept that these changes are imminent ­ and by imminent we mean within the next generation or so ­ then he will find himself struggling more and more against the new energies and changes which are upon him.

Many are so entrenched in the way things "were" that they cannot conceive that the old ways and the old energies simply do not work any longer. They are expecting their comfortable way of life to continue. They are expecting money to be the god of their world, and so very many see this as the only way to the future, and their only future security and happiness. But therein lies a great untruth.Money will no longer be the ruling tie that has held man for so long. He is awakening to the fact that peace and fulfilment comes from within, and there is no greater peace, security, love and understanding, than the root of this feeling within.

When mankind has learned to share all he has, when mankind has learned to live for his brother, and give equally to all around him, in thought, word and deed and worldly goods, then he will be well on the path towards the enlightenment that the great seers spoke of.

The greatness of the human man on earth can be seen in his sharing on all fronts, the understanding of, and the oneness with his fellow man. For all those who seek, you are blessed, for your answers are soon to be found. You will find these answers within you as you listen to your heart and what it tells you.

As all realities around us alter and change, we will see business and politics as usual, but things will be gradually changing within these systems. Many companies will fall and many more will find themselves in scandal and strife, as keeping the lid on will become impossible, and nothing will be able to function very well.

We came here knowing it was a turning point in our time. We chose to go through a transformation at this time. Whether this transformation is that of transitioning through so called death, or through awakening through ascension is the individual choice each soul made. We are being prepared inwardly for the wondrous and amazing, or the frightening and awakening experiences we will each experience.

As we move beyond known human boundaries into the new reality, we enter a place of healing, nurturing and fulfilment. We look at the ‘old’ way, and we are in awe that we didn’t see sooner what lies ahead in the way of transformation. We can begin to see that death holds no boundaries for those who have accepted it as simply a ‘moving on’. Each death is a birth into spirit. How many are there to welcome a soul who has just crossed over? Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the world could accept this en mass? It could change the whole way of thinking of mankind and alter all the patterns of the dark side. Sometimes we may awaken from a dream where we have dreamt we were killed, and thought ‘thank goodness, it’s morning’. We then go about our day. How do those we left behind in the dream world feel? Their reality is just as real to them. Do they feel loss at our going and grieve for us?

We would find it very difficult defining what reality is. For each of us it is very different. I was watching A Beautiful Mind recently, and I realised that John Forbes Nash, Jr., the character played by Russell Crowe, gave one an insight into what reality is like for those who suffer schizophrenia. It is so hard to walk through daily life, seeing other realities and not knowing which one is the path that is ‘real’. Those people Nash was seeing as ‘unreal’ were ego-driven realities which seemed to give him an importance he otherwise lacked. It is human ego, which can split our reality into a schizophrenic personality. If we focus on having open hearts and giving love instead of seeing ourselves as we would like others to see us, it will prevent a lot of the suffering of tormented minds.

Sometimes we feel an emptiness with the change in realities occurs. This is not something to be frightened about. It is a good thing. When this happens it allows for new things to come into our lives. It allows for an opening that will enhance our chance to let light enter.

I myself have been feeling this emptiness lately. It is like the old feelings I had have deserted me and left me empty. I was told :

Let patience be your guide. By allowing peace to enter in and giving way to whatever comes, you are opening a part of yourself to receive the blessings that are waiting for you. Do not be afraid of this emptiness. It is but a passing moment of time. The new reality is already there - just waiting for you to be ready to accept it. It lies in another reality just waiting for you to step into. Go in peace.

As we move into a new reality, new energy, or new vibration there will be times we will find ourselves uneasy and unsure as we manoeuvre our way through the new course we have chartered. It is never easy. But this is one path that is essential if we are to leave behind the old and take on the new. This world will no longer be able to hold the old energy of the old reality, and if we wish to move with her, we have to raise our vibrations and step into the new reality through love, compassion and non-judgement.

On reality, Astara tells us :

I AM Astara.

I come with greetings this day. Your reality is changing and many are finding themselves slipping through the cracks. Those of us in spirit watch and wonder and wait for the penny to drop until you see yourselves as the children of light that you are. Walk in trust and do not fear.

The reality that you seek will be yours. Touch that which you crave in your heart and give it life through your imagination. These times are given to you to know that what you have believed as your reality is no longer. So much is hidden from you that the Masters of old only held the key to. Many others did not want mankind to know these truths, so the priests and the Pharaohs and the kings kept them from the populace.

Slipping between realities is no different from taking off one cloak and putting on another. There is no separation between life and death. Only a passing for a time which will surely reunite as you step into the new reality. Your old world is indeed crumbling…but it is crumbling to make way for the new. The new world of wonder and light is only just a step away. Have faith and trust in the goodness of the love of God. All is in perfect accord and all is as it should be. Be at peace. I leave you now. I AM Astara.

As our realities change and lift, we are preparing to move towards the higher consciousness, which will awaken us to the grandness of who we really are. We are seeing the shift in everything around us and it will become more obvious as the years progress. We are moving towards our destiny.
