While many of you are in a position to tighten their belts - and should wisely do so to the best of your abilities, be mindful of how and where you spend your time and money - a vast number of you no longer have a belt at all to speak of.
It can be be quite challenging to live in the heart on an empty/hungry stomach or when financial uncertainties keep you up at night.
Still, in spite of all that or because of it, it is more important than ever to live fully grounded in the present. By that We mean avoid thinking or worrying too far ahead.
Take you day an hour at a time if you have to. Stop watching the news or reading the paper if what you see or hear makes the hamster in your head scarily run years into the future.
Do the same for the people in your life who create the same reaction (take a step back as much as you can, spend less time with them). Meditate, go for a walk (preferably in nature) or go within instead.
These are times to be resourceful, creative, original, inventive... and to embrace, celebrate these qualities in yourself and in others. Support and encourage one another. That "crazy" idea you (or a friend) had a few years back may be exactly what the world needs today.
If necessity is the mother of invention, well now is the perfect time to embody that saying. This is what the world, your world, truly needs at the moment.
All the quiet time, clearing/decluttering, meditation and inward going We have been advocating are not only instruments of growth and enlightenment, they are a powerful foundation to always remain lucid and deeply grounded and keep a clear head, mind and heart when the entire world seems to be freaking out because so many are up shit creek without a paddle. (Pardon our bluntness.)
You can create that paddle you see. All of you. Your own paddle for your own new world. Mind you it will look quite different than all the paddles that came before.
That is quite good really. It is excellent actually.
But remember that you have to be in the right frame of mind to see opportunity, light and hope when (almost) everybody from to the top of society all the way to the bottom is neck deep in fear (and denial for some).
Yes, grave mistakes have been made in the past. True, those who made these mistakes are not always the ones paying for them, suffering the consequences of all the wrongs of this world.
Still, finding someone to blame or coming up with the worst possible case scenario or outcome is not going to solve anything or help anybody. If anything, it will only make the world darker, colder.
While you may not have been the cause of the problem, you are part of the solution.
Another part of the solution is a re-emergence of community. A renewed sense of community. Knowing your neighbours, helping each other, bartering, exchanging services, pooling resources (brains, hearts, money, manpower...) together and so on.
Having more community-based services. For instance that means getting the healing or soul counseling right around the corner so to speak, and not travelling hours or days to get it. In some ways, the world will get smaller.
It may not look like it at all right now, but these are great times to experience life on this Earth.
So many systems/structures are so broken beyond repair that the only option, the only solution is to wipe the slate clean and start anew.
Of course, there will be some who attempt try to fix the unfixable - either because there is so much fear in their eyes that they have gone totally blind or that they belonged to the few whose lives were enriched by the old ways.
There is great power in numbers.
You are the change, you truly are.
Start with yourself. Your life. You situation. Then move to your social circle, your community... The World will follow in due time if each and every one of you changes your own personal world.
Find ways to not only survive in these trying times, but to thrive. Plan. Prepare. Think/Feel. Then act. Change your life so it aligns with your heart. Listen to what your heart/higher self has to say.
Draw on your soul's infinite wealth and knowingness.
Stay calm. Remain grounded and focused. Remember that governments and companies use fear as a weapon to keep you in check, so you follow their "guidance"/"wisdom" blindly. All the words they use (terror, crisis, recession, losses, "looming" anything...) are tools to trick you. You see you are useless, even dangerous to them if you think for yourself. Remember what all of that "thinking for you" has done for humanity as a whole in the past. They fear the oneness.
Still, be reminded that bringers of light also take the shape of politicans and executives, as you are needed everywhere.
Pay attention to your body - its reaction will tell you if the words of others can be trusted (heaviness in the pit of your stomach is always a "no-go" sign; on the other hand, feeling uplifted/energized means your soul agrees with theirs).
Yes, it's stormy outside. But this is the time you've been waiting for to truly start listening to the wisdom of you, and BE the change you want to see.
This is all.
Much Light and Love to Everyone
