The MESSAGE
About two years ago I found myself on the beach on New Years Day at 5 a.m. waiting for the sun to rise. There were 8 others as we were there to express our intentions for the new year to the universe. I had decided it was my intent to become a “lightworker.” I really did not have a complete idea of what form that would take exactly, yet I knew it was the direction of my heart. Also, this was a big change from the construction business I was in at the time. My life has changed so dramatically in the two years since then and now I find it changing even further. Some of the wonderful changes in my life include the channeling I have been doing from the entities that I have called “the Group.” This is a group of seven or eight entities that lovingly give me information of healing the inner self to help us find our self-empowerment. When I first started to channel these beings I was very concerned about who they were and where they are from. To this day they have refrained from telling me their names or origins because along with self-empowerment they are here to teach the practice of discernment. Their instructions are to listen to the message. “If it pulls at your heart strings and you feel the love then take it as your own. If you feel confusion, fear or anything less than this strong heart connection then leave the message without judgment as it was not meant for you.”
This is the art of discernment. It is a tool we can use in all areas of our lives. There are many people on the Earth at this time that are starting to channel entities from the other side. The Group suggests that we practice discernment in all areas even as you listen to the message from them. By learning to place these important filters over the information we can easily learn to take the best from everything.
Recently I found myself doing a private session with a woman who was distressed at having found a well-known spiritual teacher to be a fake. This was very difficult for her since she had helped to promote this person. Since I had also met and experienced this person I listened very carefully to what she had to say. The interesting part was that immediately I looked past the smoke and mirrors to use my tool of discernment on his message and could not even re-member what that message was. I re-member listening to what was said that day and thinking that I had no objection to the message yet it really did not grab me. It seems that even thought there was a lot said that day I could not pull up any specifics. After the smoke and mirrors left, the message seemed to leave with it. The Group says that this means that message was not for me at that time. To choose what I will be in any given moment is my only job here on Earth. I watched, I enjoyed the show yet I left it where it belonged in the field of entertainment.
I have recently found a lot of resistance to the fact that the Group will not disclose who they are. There have even been serious concerns expressed from people that I least expected. I have been asked what I consider to be fear-based questions like “does this ring of truth to you?” At first I didn’t believe this was happening, especially from these people, then I started to understand the deeper lessons here. Each one has their own path to enlightenment and it is my job to honor all paths without judgment while still standing firm in my own truth. I tend to think that since my use of discernment leads me to my truths that everyone who practices this will be led to the same truths. This is where the “without judgment” part comes in. Those on other paths will resonate to other messages and what I perceive as fear based may be someone else’s truth at that moment. It is important for me to re-member that there is more here than I will ever know. I have always known that there is only one truth and eight million ways to get there. As I discern the best way for me, it is important that I do not label the others as “Good” or “Bad.” I have often been told by the Group “this is the illusion of polarity on the game board and nothing more.”
The Group Speaks:
Your experiences on Earth at this time have far reaching vibrations. There is much going on around the shifts you are experiencing. You often read from your sacred books and think dearly of those times and the lasting impressions they had on humanity. What you do not see is that the times you are in will reach much farther and the effects of what you now do will be felt by much more than what you call humanity. You are dearly loved and highly honored for your path. As you move from one reality to another you will be co-creating new paradigms for yourself. Paradigms that work in all aspects of your existence including the higher self which you are now beginning to acknowledge. There is much excitement around this as much of what you do here now will be modeled in other places of the universe. Because of this there is much activity on this side of the veil. Many entities have come to observe the shift from a closer vantage point. There is so much positioning for this that what you refer to as parking is an issue. The attention to your actions is because many are preparing for the shifts they will soon experience as a result of what happens on Earth. There is much to do in preparation and that is the reason for the contact you are experiencing.
The entities on this side of the veil are much more varied than on your side of the veil. It would surprise even the most enlightened of you to see how many faces of God there really are. There are many here now to help with the evolution of humanity, and there are others here to simply observe. There are primary relatives who have birthrights that allow them to help at critical points of your development much the way parents would help their young even as they grow into adulthood. There are basically six species that are responsible for planting the seed of humanity. They are now in the overtone levels and are here primarily to give information to all that choose to listen. These are the races that were instrumental in the development of humanity and they are represented in your earliest writings. These beings are perhaps more similar to yourselves than you might at first think. You will know them as they reveal themselves to you in the near future. They are many of these entities that you now hear from. They approach you with love, respect and empowerment, yet never from control.
There are others here now who are in contact with you as well. Some of these have petitioned for this right and it has been determined that this is for the highest good and would be allowed. It is important to understand that we are all connected and therefore if one is raised, all are elevated. There are also those here now that are blind to this truth and are here for their own agenda. This is appropriate on the higher aspects yet it may not be visible from your perspective. The universe can only move as high as the lowest forms permit. Therefore it is in everyone’s best interest to help one another. This is the reason we always ask you to treat each other with respect and nurture one another. You are in effect helping yourself. It is also the reason we are here as we in effect are helping ourselves.
As stated before, the diversity
of people on your planet does not coincide with those on this side of the
veil. Parallel to that is the diversity of motivation.
Most that have access to you, are from higher vibrational dimensions and
are of true intent to help with information of empowerment. As with
your dimension there are also those who are here for their own advancement
that are oblivious of the thread that runs through all of life. These
are what you would term lower vibrational entities. They are here
for their own advancement and they do not hesitate to plant inappropriate
seeds through undiscerning channels.
It is because these beings appeared
to you as technologically advanced and you listened very closely to what
they are saying. Your preoccupation and reliance on technology is
a direct result of contact with these beings. They have been
planting seeds for a long time. These seeds have been planted with
the intent of furthering their development alone. They have
externalized much of the inner work and therefore have lost the connection
of the heart. The act of externalizing that connection to spirit
has stripped it of its true meaning and this is the reason these beings
are here trying to re-gain what they have lost. They are at a critical
juncture and their survival hangs in the balance. Without realizing
it, their self-centered intent has planted the seeds of their own destruction.
This is coming to fruition now. This was most prevalent of what you
would call the Greys.
A large segment of these beings have now left the planet as they finally understand that they have exceeded their understanding in their search for expansion. As it stands now there are some that may survive as in their retreat they have made an effort to correct some of the damage they have done. This single gesture was the flicker of light the universe was waiting to act on. There are still many Greys here that see themselves as threatened with their very survival and they will stop at nothing to attain it. Please know that they have no real power other than the illusion of fear. It will also help to know that many of you have offered your help at the higher levels of your existence although you may be unaware of this consciously. Listen to your heart and know that this is deeply honored. There are other beings here on a similar path as the Greys although not as desperate. These are part of a group that tried to take control of this experiment Earth. They still have the same vibration of control and fear as they have from the beginning so it is easy to identify them as they attempt to plant their seeds of control. They are on a direct collision course with the highest masters of light and they are not to be feared. It is fear itself that feeds them and keeps them here. They are not a threat, more of a nuisance and an example of where we can go wrong if our hearts are not in alignment with the highest good.
These later entities that are of lower vibration are well advanced in most aspects of technology. They would therefore have you believe that this qualifies them to give you information that will be used in all areas of your life. This is illusion. By learning to listen to your higher self all information will go through a filter of biology and therefore your higher self. If the information comes through the filter intact, then it was a vibratory match to who you are and you will feel the knowing in your biology. If it does not then simply discard it without judgment for it was not placed there for you and was most likely for another. It is important to re-member that what we are calling lower vibrational beings are more advanced in many areas than is humanity at this moment. Therefore one can see that even though there may be a motive that is not of the highest vibration, some of the information they give will be valuable to you. It is a master that can weed the flowers from the garden without disturbing any of the plants.
Please understand that all events originate because of motivation. Follow the energy to the original motivation to discover its true nature. It is also helpful to understand that there is great diversity of what you call personality on this side of the veil. The differences we experience are much greater than your biology would support and you are now existing within a much smaller bandwidth than do you when you are not on Earth. Therefore, it becomes important for you to understand the earlier channels that stated there are more things in Heaven and Earth than you can ever imagine.
See also that these personalities sometimes offer their version of ego as well. If this is felt in their message identify it quickly and follow the energy back to its source by asking what is it they have to gain by giving you this information. If the answer does not ring true to you and you can not clearly see the motive, adjust your tuning to another channel.
This group of nine is here to teach all who choose to move fully into their own empowerment. We are here to teach you to listen from within so that none have the need to go to another again for their own information. You are masters and we are here to help you re-member who you are and to help you take your power. These are the powers you elected to hide from yourself when you agreed to play this Grand Game of Hide and Seek. This re-membering is available to all when you learn the techniques and practice the art of listening. These techniques we will teach you. Along with the art of listening, will also be the art of discernment. This is the most important tool we will give you for it is a tool you may use in all areas of your being.
You are the link that allows us to bring the light to the Earth at this time. It is your physical connection that completes the circuit and grounds the light energy into the Earth. As this dynamic link, many of you have learned to listen to this energy as it passed through you into the Earth. This is what you are experiencing as channeling. As the veil thins and you begin to re-member, most of you will be able to hear this information for yourselves. This is one of the primary reasons we are here at this time.
The Game is ending as you know
it….In this Grand Game of Hide and Seek, you have found us, and in doing
so we can no longer deny that we are here. It is time for us to show
you where we have been hiding. This will happen soon.
You are not alone and you never have been. By your actions
at this time you are writing the rules for the next game that you are planing
now as the universe watches in expectation. The difference is that
now you have cleared the way for all others to easily move into this game
by creating a new paradigm. Once this paradigm is proven, it
will be adopted by your neighbors all around. It is the paradigm
of light.
We often sit before you as you
ask questions and it is humorous to us that you place such importance on
the identity of those who bring that message to you. Fear not.
Do you not understand that by guarding against dark forces you are actually
preparing a place for them and even extending them an invitation?
The vibrations you send to the universe for manifestation are what create
your world at any moment. We ask you to practice the art of discernment
by the content of the message itself and not by the name of any entities
that might carry that message. If you would believe that there are
dark forces that can channel through you if you are not protected, then
why would you not believe that they are capable of masquerading as higher
vibrational entities? Would beings capable of such deception
not also be capable of lying about their identity? We implore you
to practice the art of discernment of information and disregard the source
or name of the entity that is the messenger. This will become your
most important tool, as the days ahead will usher in more information than
ever before. We mentioned earlier the filter of biology.
It would help you to understand that biology has restrictions and is ever
changing, therefore it is possible for a channel to be quite clear at one
moment and at another the message may be grabbled and strained. Also,
it is often a challenge to get messages cleanly past the ego, for the ego
often taints even messages of pure intent. Therefore the discernment of
the information, as it is checked within your own biology, is the only
true act of discernment.
Here is the tool we offer to you. Re-member a time or situation in your past that is full of love. Be with that feeling and fully connect with all that it has to offer you. Now pay close attention to where in your biology that feeling occurs. Locate the source of the feeling in your biology and identify its placement. Now find a time in your life when you have lost your way and are confused. Locate this feeling in your biology. Now re-member a time when you felt fear. Once again locate where that feeling resides in your biology. Note that these are separate and distinct areas of your biology. The next time you hear a message, identify the area of your biology where it resonates. If you feel it in the area of love then take it as your own. If you feel it in the area of fear or confusion leave it without judgment, as it was not meant for you. These are now the steadfast tools for your inner discernment.
As you play this game with the polarity of the game board you look for the opposites in all areas. It is an effect of polarity that you do so. If you take a message that was not meant for you directly you will experience confusion yet you may not experience the full opposite of love which is fear. It is this same polarity that causes you to make judgments about those in your field. There are times when one may give you tainted or misdirected information and you therefore label them as always tainted, never to hear their words again. You miss much of the information we send in this manner. Listen with forgiveness and discernment and release the judgment, for it is only a reflection of judgment you have about yourself.
As your experience with discernment grows you will find it possible to use this tool in many other areas of your existence as well. Using discernment in the areas of what you place in your body, where you chose to spend your time, and where you focus all form of energy will help move you forward rapidly. This is a time when the information will be increasing at a rapidly, and the tool of discernment will be needed to allow each to step into their own empowerment.
Know that our motives are strictly selfish, as we have a fuller understanding of the true nature of the love energy. We know how we will gain by helping you find your way home. We have no desire to control, only to enable and we strongly encourage you to approach each other with that same ideal. You have so much to gain by helping one another find their way home as do we. You are inseparable from us as you are from each other. As you take your next step, it enables us to take our next step. This is the way of the universe. We have worked diligently to help you open this door before you. We are now encouraging you to walk though the door and we have offered to be here to help light your way. We are here to help as many open to the art of channeling and discernment as choose it. There are many techniques and exercises that we are bringing in now to help with this. It is your choice and we honor you for the path you choose. Your work on Earth is much greater than you could ever imagine. You are honored beyond your understanding for the work that you have already done, and still you continue to move forward at a accelerating pace.
Please know that here will come a time when you will no longer wish to channel entities from this side of the veil. As you move into empowerment and re-member your true nature, you will choose to channel only your higher selves. Past that, you will learn to channel the higher selves of those around you. At this time you may think it strange that there would come a time that you would find yourself freely accessing the innermost thoughts of another, yet we tell you in all love that this is your normal state to which you are simply returning. This is your true nature. It is time to start re-membering and we are here as a mirror for you to see yourself until you learn to do it without us. Practice discernment on all that comes into your field, including the messages from us. Ask and it shall be answered, always….then, listen to the answers with your biology. Take what pulls at your heartstrings and make it your own. Leave the rest without judgment for it was not meant for you at this time. Do this in all areas and know you are loved.
It is with the highest of honor and love that we sit before you and ask you to treat each other with respect, nurture one another and play well together………….The Group
Well I guess they corrected me about a few things huh? Looks like I’m going to start saying that this is a group of nine from now on. Actually they have told me that this changes from time to time as do some of the members of the Group as their individual tasks are fulfilled. Recently there was a very old man who’s job it was to hold one finger up when I asked a question that it was not yet time to answer. The time must now be right for all answers because he has left the Group. Often when I ask questions they just say to me that I should understand that I am not fully capable of understanding and let it go at that. I guess this is what they call faith.
I wrote most of this on a long plane ride going to and from New Hampshire from my home in San Diego. They love to talk on airplanes! During the entire time I was writing they kept showing me something that I was waiting for them to include here. They never did. Now they are telling me that this is my part in the deal and that I am to convey the rest of this story. So here goes.
A few weeks ago the Group took me on a journey I will never forget. They are very visual with me and I really enjoy these little excursions. This night they took me in my dreams to my special place. I know this place because I have been there many times before with them. It looks much like a restaurant with rectangular wooden tables and plain but comfortable wooden chairs. Very plain furnishings, yet there is a “safety” about this place that I recognize instantly. The moment I walk in I’m greeted by the warmth and love of the Group. There is no doubt…… I’m home. This time they took me as we all huddled around a table and they showed me these moving pictures much like a movie except they’re three dimensional, much like moving holograms. The Group had something they wanted me to know.
They showed me many scenes and events in history that all pointed to the same understanding. I have little recognition of the actual things I saw there except I kept seeing how perfect everything was. I kept thinking to myself that if only we knew how perfect everything was we could let go and enjoy the game a lot more. Because we think we need to be in such control, we miss a lot of the fun of this game. It doesn’t need to be this hard!
As usual there was one scene that they let me bring back with me to illustrate their point. I found myself looking at Mother Earth back about 50 years or so. She was looking ahead and visualizing the shift she was preparing to make. To increase her vibrations there was something she needed to do first. She needed to raise her physical temperature to a slightly higher level. The way she accomplished this was to manifest the vibration and then she simply stood back. I re-member thinking that this was much like us having a thought. If only we could stand back with confidence and know that it was coming, most of our co-creations would come true for us. Then I got to watch the events unfold as spirit fulfilled her co-creation. There were these little parts of her on the surface and several of them connected to the subconscious mind received the same idea all at once. As a result they produced these little things that they used to spray their underarms so they would not smell. They also used them to help them hold their hair in place and for many other uses. They all thought they were so advanced for devising an easy way to apply these messy things. Years passed, and as a result of these devices being used the ozone became thinned. Global warming was set in motion just enough to raise the Earth temperature slightly. As it neared the desired temperature, Mother Earth placed into the subconscious mind another vibration and us humans became aware of the “damage” we had done to the ozone and we stopped using spray cans. Despite our judgments about it, it was a perfect co-creation. It is very appropriate that we protect our environment and that we are now more ecologically aware, yet at the time, this mindset was perfect for what was needed.
What they showed me that night was that even events that we judge to be “Good” or “Bad” usually have a much higher meaning. We can now begin to understand that we don’t know it all…nor do we need to. We can know that we can never really hurt ourselves and we are very well protected. We are on the game board and it is a safe place. We can rest assured that everything up to this point has been perfect. From that we can take a lot of confidence that even though we may make what we call “mistakes” everything we do is appropriate as long as we enjoy the game.
As I left I said a tearful goodbye to the Group and awoke with a peaceful feeling that I still have today. We are going to be alright if we just trust ourselves. It really is perfect, and most of the time we take this thing called life way too seriously. Re-member, the only reason angels fly is because they take themselves so lightly. Here is to enjoying the game!

Time to Center
Create space for yourself now and get comfortable. Release your judgments for a time. Here is a box by the door for you to place them in. You can claim them on your way out later if you’d like. Right now we are here to enjoy the game!
The Beacons of Light Meditation
Relax now and release all the thoughts of the day as we journey together.
This is a time just for us. We are here tonight to help ourselves
re-member who we are. We are also here to re-member the others in
our spiritual families as we allow the space for us to come back together
once again.
With every breath feel the tension leaving your body as you fall into
the comfortable feeling of deep relaxation. Know that you are in
a safe place. Feel the safety all around you as you open your eyes
to your surroundings.
Focus your attention on these words now as you feel the rest of your surroundings change. Become aware of the bright colors as this new surrounding comes into focus. Feel the familiar feeling as you look at your feet. The flat surface you are standing on is no longer the ground. It feels somewhat like plastic or another man made surface. Look around the room and see that everything in your sight has a larger than life quality to it. See that everything is overstated and has a very unreal quality to it. Even with this unreal quality it still has the feeling of fun and excitement. “What is this strange place?” you ask out loud. The answer is placed within your own head all at one time as a complete thought group. You know you have just been given all the answers to this question yet you still have to unwrap the gift you have just been given. Then the answer surfaces and you come to the understanding that you are on the game board of life.
As you look around you notice that your vision seems to be affected by the gameboard. Somehow you are now seeing things in contrast. This is not your normal way of seeing things and it takes some getting used to. This is the reason things feel and look so strange. The polarity of the gameboard is tainting your vision. As you look at the whole all you can see is both of the opposite ends. The way it looks to you is that this is all there is. All the connections that link everything to each other are invisible. This is like looking through a pair of brightly colored glasses. You know in your heart of hearts that this is a game because everything seems so unreal and exaggerated. Here everything is seen in full contrast. Ask your guides to help you adjust to the polarity here.
Your excitement rises now as many others enter your area of the gameboard. They have come to play the game with you and this is exciting for it is why you came here. The game begins and everyone scatters as they run for a place to play the game of Hide and Seek. You are one who is seeking now and you dart off looking in all the obvious places for the others who are hiding. You move forward very slowly. Looking all around as you walk you feel something yet it does not register to your eyes. Retracing your steps you search for that feeling again. Notice how it feels in your biology and where in your body that feeling registers. It is now right in front of you and even though you can not see anything with your eyes you can feel that there is someone right in front of you. The place in your body where it registers is a place of love so you know this to be a true feeling. Speak out loud the call of the game with the words “I AM.” Suddenly the area directly in front of you becomes cloudy and then clears as a very tall man appears directly in front of you. The clothing of a beautiful white flowing robe with a golden trim easily tell you that he is of a higher vibration than you. Once again feel your biology and locate where those vibrations originate.
Feeling safe in your discernment you embrace this tall winged one. As you do, many others appear all at once. They are rejoicing that you have been so wise in your playing of the game. You have excelled at an important part of the game and by doing so you now have these loving entities to be with you for as long as you choose them. You have found your own discernment and used it effectively. What a gift to have connected with them. They bring you gifts of information and tools to work with. As the game progresses and you continue on the path before you, they begin to work with you to show you the tools and explain in detail how to use them. With the tools they are giving you it becomes obvious that all questions can easily be answered if you simply learn how to listen to yourself. In practicing with these new tools the need for the tools and the need for the others to follow you on the path slips quietly away.
You find yourself now walking alone once again, yet this time you there is no want or need for others. This time it is by choice. Feel the sureness of each step as you feel complete as the piece of God that you are. All things are possible to you and you walk with that truth. There is no need to add anything to you as you are whole unto yourself, and yet you feel the connection to all things around you. This is quite a different feeling than you had when you first started this game. This is the return home you have been looking for and it was right in front of you all along.
Connect once again with your biology as you search for the truth of the game you are in. As your body tells you its truth, watch as the plastic appearance as the gameboard slips away. In its place is the most beautiful natural garden imaginable. Walk upon the path that was prepared for you in this garden. Feel the strength that comes from knowing that you are whole and complete within yourself. There is nothing that needs to be added to you. You easily attract all things into your field by the vibrations you exude.
Feel the joy returning as the others that originated the game with you now join you in this garden. This part of the game is over and now it is time to share your stories with the others of the roles you acted out and the lessons you learned. Look around you now and see all those who played a part. Those you called “Good” and those you called “Bad” are all now sitting and laughing together as they share their stories of this grand game. In the end all truths were revealed. All were allowed to see their true natures and to reclaim their powers. It is a time to rejoice in the beauty and love of it all. What a Grand Game it was!
Now become aware of your breathing once again as you move back into the room where we started this journey. As your senses are returning look around and observe the place you are in. See that all is as you left it….but is it really? Walk now with the understanding that you have all the tools you need for this journey. The tool you return with now is that of discernment. This tool has many more uses than you may at first realize. Your inner truth may always be found through the use of the tool of discernment. These answers come from within………...they are a part of you………..you have only to re-member to listen.
And so it is………………………………………
