transformation blues

For all who are feeling overwhelmed or confused by the state of turmoil or ennui that their lives seem to be in, I would like to share this message from Archangel Gabriel which was channeled through me recently.

I still pass my days feeling off-kilter and even woozy, but I know it's just a side-effect of the energy and vibrational changes that are simultaneously occurring in everyone (including me) and the planet -- whether or not you are conscious of it.

I hope the following message, which appears in the metaphysical ezine Cosmic Lighthouse's September issue, will give you the same comfort and strength that it has given me.


ARCHANGEL GABRIEL ON TRANSFORMATION

Dear ones,

So much has already been said about the ongoing energy changes and transformations that are taking place as Earth moves into the next dimension.

But what it seems to mean for so many of you right now is that you are simply caught up in a whirlwind where nothing is within your control. Your best laid plans do not work out, and sickness and financial problems are common for many.

Your emotions, too, are out of control. They swing from one extreme to another in a matter of seconds. Anger surges quickly to the surface, and unforgiveness lingers in your hearts.

Even those who are on their spiritual path are beset with these problems in one form or other. In truth, it is when you are on the path of light that you become more aware of the challenges that come your way.

So why is this happening, you ask.

Why must there be so much pain, sorrow and difficulty when this planet and all who are in it are supposed to be raising their vibration and moving into another dimension? Are we not moving towards a better world, one of light and joy and peace?

Indeed, you are, dear ones. But you must bear in mind that all that is happening to you and the world is part of the process of transformation.

So many think that transformation occurs in the blink of an eye.

But in reality, when transformation truly takes place, every aspect of you is involved – the physical, the mental, the emotional as well as the spiritual. And so it can get a little complicated and take time to fully occur.

What would be the point of transformation if it occurred instantly and so painlessly that you do not even realise it has occurred?

For your soul to advance and grow, it needs to be conscious of the lessons it learns, the unnecessary baggage it releases, and the choices it makes.

For you are all students of Earth, here on this planet to learn the lessons your souls came specifically to learn. And like students anywhere, you would not know how much you have learned or how well you have done unless you are tested.

But pass the test, you will.

The angels, archangels, ascended masters, divinities and other advanced light beings from other dimensions are here to make sure of that.

For do we all not come from God – the source of all creation, light and being?

So do not despair and allow your pain, your fear or your sense of lack to overcome you.

For all this will pass.

And all is as it should be. Look beyond the chaos and know that all that is happening is according to divine plan and timing.

You are not alone. You have never been alone.

We are with you always, and help is but a call away. You only have to ask, and help will be given -- even if you are not sure whom you are asking or what it is you are asking for.

In fact, help came some time ago, and is still being rendered to you. So many light beings and angels are already in the world, doing whatever they can to assist you in this time.

Release all fear. Do not hold on to despair or anger. Let go of the slights you feel you have received. Instead, unclench your fists and allow God and His helpers to pour the blessings that you deserve into your hands.

At the same time, beware those who come in the name of love and light but focus, instead, on making money from you by playing on your fears and lack of knowledge. Sadly, there are many of those today.

Yet there are also many genuine lightworkers, diligently working with the angels and light beings in helping to pull themselves and others out of the darkness and into the light.

Trust what your heart tells you, not what your head says. For divine guidance comes from the heart. We will help you to recognise the true lightworkers.

They are teachers and healers who speak with truth and wisdom. They act out of love and compassion. They, too, struggle with their own human tests yet steadfastly seek the highest good for their fellowmen.

They may rely on donations or charge a fee for their services. But that is as it should be, for they too need to put food on their table. The difference is they do not take advantage of others. For they trust in God’s provision and the premise that they are co-creators with God, able to reap the rewards that they richly deserve.

Keep to the path, dear ones. Do not give up. For we are here to light your way, to give you strength and love.

Always.
