Goddess Kali Takes America (4 Viewers)

[Lorna Wilson]

There is no intro that I can give this article except to say it's a fabulous thought provoking read.

"Donald Trump might already be picking his deplorable cabinet, but it is the Dark Mother, the destroyer of worlds, oracle of holy change, the tenderhearted be-header, that won this country. Kali has brought down our house in a shocking blow; all the illusions of America, stripped in a single night. We are not who we thought we were. Now we must get ready to stand in her fires of transmutation... this moment gives us an opportunity only if instead of running for the light, we let ourselves go fully into the dark. If instead of resolving our discomfort too quickly, we consider the possibility of staying in the uncomfortable, in the irreconcilable, in the unsettled. Before we rush in to reanimate the discourse of hope prematurely, we must yield to what is present...We must not send suffering into exile — the fear, the heartbreak, the anger, the helplessness all are appropriate, all are welcome...Cutting off the inconvenient is a form of spiritual fascism. By resolving to stay only in the light in times of immense crisis, we split life; engage in emotional deportation, rather than hosting the vulnerable..."

This is a most thoughtful and articulate piece. Yes, it is a painful time and those of us, not only in the US, but all over the world are wondering what will happen. To me, one of the important parts of the article was not to gloss over our issues and trundle along in some version of our old beliefs. Go ahead and look at them and ourselves and figure out something new. It is not unlike a puncture wound. It has to heal from the deepest point first.

This article is a great help in thinking and feeling our way through these times and worth the time to read. The author is a brilliant writer.

Thanks, Lorna, for sharing it with us.

It is indeed an amazing article. Kali energy entered my life four years ago and destroyed everything. Perhaps it takes longer to percolate to the top or perhaps there is a tipping point whereby a percentage is reached and then BOOM!

Now we must get ready to stand in her fires of transmutation... this moment gives us an opportunity only if instead of running for the light, we let ourselves go fully into the dark.

This is why I do not go with the "must keep my vibration high" brigade. The folk who are so terrified of their shadow it is rejected, abandoned, thrust back into the mass consciousness and never owned or healed.

Thank you Lorna. Respect for this posting.

 

[Vickie]

This article is very strong and honest. We, as the human race, need to look at what we have all created through mass consciousness before we can tear it down and start something new. There are so many people that choose to look away from negative events and pretend they don't exist. We live in duality and if we can't accept the dark within us and the world then we can't open the cracks so the light can come through. I believe that's what this incarnation is about this time on earth - change - in ourselves and the world but the only way to change is to face what we created and tear it down.

 

[Stargazer]

I agree that it's important to own and heal our individual and collective consciousness, but not everyone who chooses to focus on "the positive" or who chooses to be "high vibration" is in fear of, nor have they necessarily rejected or abandoned their so-called "dark" or "shadow" side. Frankly, mine has had its way for far too long and I respect it for being far too clever! It's taken me a very long time, but I feel I'm finally learning to face it, appreciate it, and accept it as a catalyst for growth. And it's definitely an ongoing process, as more and more catalysts seem to arise each and every day.

In the process, I've also learned that I don't need to dwell on my perceived limitations (whether individual or collective). I can choose instead to focus on something different...creating something new. My wife received a postcard in the mail awhile ago and she put it up on our refrigerator with a magnet. I love the quote on it. It says:

"The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new." (Socrates)​

Each "Now" moment presents a wonderful new opportunity for change...and as long as we can remember that, my feeling is that there is nothing we can't accomplish!

 

[KarlaSM]

I love this information. Here is something for you guys to ponder about very deeply:

We are always guided to work in the realms that help us grow, (I am one of those who works mostly in the lower realms, consciously) so independently of which realms or dimensions of consciousness we are guided to connect to, everything came from the original highest realm of Source, where infinite peace exists.

When we say that we want to avoid the darkness or the lower realms, we forget that all the energy that makes up those realms and dimensions are the very same energy that came from the highest possible realm and dimension.

What happens when you find the light in the darkness? You find the vulnerable child that wants to be hugged.

In my own experience, and that includes personal connection to the energy of Miss Kali and all forms of dark energy, many negative beings, in energy form and in physical teach me to find the right way to make peace with them. When your heart opens to the dark, then it will speak to you differently, it will treat you with love and with respect. It is your own shadow what demands that love and that respect and to be understood, and then it shows to you that child who is so vulnerable.

Then, the darkness asks you to remind it the way back to its origin in the highest realm of peace and infinite love.

A few years ago I had a session with a client who it turns our was connected to 'the Auditorium' where 'Project Earth' is being 'administered from. There is mention of this in another Transients post.

'The General' was/is the character that the client unconsciously works with as he oversees their group. His mannerisms where more military than 'spiritual' which is in line with the groups remit. This is what he had to say about the light and dark as being necessary.:

• 
  ‘The truth is that everything both light and dark but the world has become too obsessed with this whole light business so be warned that through the upcoming transition we will all know the power, beauty and perfection of the dark. All this positive thinking and ‘be happy’ BS is half of the story. You have been shown through nature and all of creation that light and dark are necessary but you seem to need a storm to change direction in your thinking and so this coming shift will be your storm. Some of you will learn to dance in the storm. The way to prep yourself is to learn to dance in the storm now and everyday, and to see the light in chaos everyday.The yin yang sign is the biggest joke. People have it on their bracelets, tattooed on their foreheads etc. but nobody really gets it. Because it is light and dark at the same time. Within dark there is light and within light there is dark. And that’s the truth. In the transition of realities you will have to embrace your dark as well.
• 
  With these earth changes people are going to freak out and there will be violence but violence has been a part of humanity for a long time and by now you should know how to handle violence. You just need to be strong very strong and know your truth….know this truth. Because with what’s coming, the people that will make it through will be the ones that can see past the illusion. And those people that won’t will be consumed by their illusion they will be consumed by their own fear.’
  ~The General

This link has other things he said in a follow-up session.

 

[Lorna Wilson]

All of our personal power resides in our 'shadow' side...

To be fair to yin/yang there is a spot of the opposite in each half. That spot firmly anchors the duality within the whole. Probably when The General meets his boss, Madam General, the full meaning of duality will dawn.

The author, Vera de Chalambert, shows a deep connection with heart, love and light when she offers up her prayer:

It is my prayer that our country sprouts. That this regression give rise to a counterculture of grassroots movements the likes of which we have never seen. And to a culture of love beyond measure.

In going through the dark night of the soul, in laying your head and heart close to the dark ground to feel the subtle pulse of life, Pay Attention. By paying attention, fear will retreat, as the inner workings of the process reveal themselves.

 

[KarlaSM]

Thank you for sharing more of the wisdom of the dark side my friends. Very interesting session with the general.

Many months ago I worked with a previous incarnation in Atlantis in the military, and some draconian aspects. The more they become integrated, the more I see positive changes. As long as there is more daily balance between wisdom of darkness and compassion of the light everything can go well in our lives and we can assist others. Here are the positive things that stem from this personal process:

-More energy to put things in my life in order after a very long period of depression and disease.
-The military aspect said precisely that she would help put order in the excessive chaos, because with a dose of her military discipline then the material resources can be handled more properly and time can be managed more wisely.
-Better understanding of imbalances between people and their authorities and why authorities cannot be fully blamed for everything.
-Repairing solar plexus issues.

When we work with our shadow we feel less victimized but in order to avoid becoming consumed by our own darkness we must, as the general says, understand the storms and next year we will have plenty of them. If we lean too much towards that inner darkness then it is that rage what will consume us. The violence happens because the inner fire is not controlled, and with a discipline we can reach the point of processing it internally in such a way that we no longer throw it out as that expression of violence that expands the darkness. We learn to react less while we embrace our pain more efficiently over time.

Another thing is that it is true that in this world we cannot be 100% happy all the time, but we can make more peace with our suffering, and over time the more we create that inner balance and give true meaning to yin yang then an inner happiness is born from that strength and ability to feed ourselves with our inner love, and then it becomes easier to share it.

 

[Stargazer]

The truth is that everything both light and dark but the world has become too obsessed with this whole light business so be warned that through the upcoming transition we will all know the power, beauty and perfection of the dark. All this positive thinking and ‘be happy’ BS is half of the story.

An interesting viewpoint to be sure, but many of us have become rather "weary" of the so-called dark (and I think many here might feel that's actually a gross understatement). Humanity has plumbed the depths of separation and darkness over and over, in the form of conflict, competition, war, slavery, consumerism, greed, and so many other ways. It's like the needle has been stuck in the same old groove of the record, playing the same song over and over for millennia. In my opinion, it's long past time for the needle to get back on track and start playing another song--and listening to the rest of the album!

Positive thinking and the wish or intention to be happy is far from being BS. I mean, seriously...who really wants to be in pain or misery all the time? In my experience, even those who seem to wallow in suffering want to find happiness. Many times, they just don't know how to climb out of their misery in order to find it (or perhaps they can't seem to find the motivation or energy to do so).

As this "general" says, if positive thinking and happiness are only half of the story, then negative thinking and misery would certainly be the other half. But instead of being judgmental about either side of the story, I feel the key is to find peace, understanding, and balance with the Whole. Once this is learned, then we are finally able to step into our own Power as Creators. We can then start consciously choosing our own path--and we are better able to create the kinds of adventures we want to experience. Dark or Light, there are plenty of opportunities for everyone to embrace either one. It's all a matter of choice--and the right for each to choose should be respected.

Some of you will learn to dance in the storm. The way to prep yourself is to learn to dance in the storm now and everyday, and to see the light in chaos everyday

I love this analogy...and I definitely agree.

Where personal power is concerned, unless I'm misunderstanding something, I feel I have to respectfully disagree with Lorna. I would submit that there is actually far more Power in the Light. My understanding of Light is that it is full, complete Knowledge, Truth, and Understanding. Dark is merely a lack of those things, or a situation where they have been hidden from us. I like the analogy that Light displaces Dark...when one turns on the Light in a room for example, we can see far more of what is there. Sure, there are shadows behind objects and the shadows provide us with a better sense of depth and definition, but Light is where the true Power is...the Power of Knowledge, Clarity, and Understanding.

Again, I feel it all boils down to choice...whether it's made at a "Higher" Soul level, or at a 3D Human level. Some appreciate and enjoy working their "Dark" sides while others appreciate and enjoy working with their "Light" sides. Once we learn to "dance" (as the general says), we learn to appreciate the contributions of both and have the freedom to embrace whichever Aspects of Self we choose.

It is only when we allow Other Selves to make that choice for us--or allow them to influence our choices, that we begin losing our own Power. And, in either case, the choice is always ours.

 

[Pucksterguy]

Hey Lorna, i Love that straight talk from the General. It's the most honest thing I've read in a while. I do have a dark side I try to keep tabs on and reign in from time to time. However while here it does have a pourpose to serve. It keeps ne grounded and alert. It helps me to ride out cirtain stuations with not so nice people and gives me a position of strength when needed. Life is not sugar and lolipops but dual. So I have a toolbox of mechanisms both good and bad to cope and deal with life in general. Yup my halo is somewhat tarnished but I never started a fight but I sure as heck can end one.

Stargazer, the point of the article and @Lorna's session is to help people to understand that both the light and the dark should be integrated into the whole. It's not to divide people on a path of dark or light or to say either is the right choice. The article is about duality and how instead of being made to feel guilty that we have a dark side, or on the flip side, closing our eyes to the dark and only embracing the light that neither is correct. We must embrace both.

Thanks Vicky as that is exactly what he was sharing with us. That to only focus on the 'light' is imbalanced as all of creation is light and 'dark'. I think the conscious mind judges and perceives things from a dual perspective rather than from a unified consciousness, which can be difficult with the programs that are running and filtering the CM.

 

[Lorna Wilson]

LOL you understand precisely what the General was trying to share with us. If one were to consider that when we reach for our 'higher self' we are reaching for light, then by default we pull up our shadow side as everything is connected, and cannot not be. Concepts and belief systems can hold us back more than we realize. The Generals session was pre- 2012.

 

[KarlaSM]

I so agree with your points my friends. What an awesome discussion.

I see that many people, when reading about the dark side, might feel that the intention is to keep exploring this path and to perpetuate pain. But it is precisely through polarity integration within that we ascend to more harmonious dimensions of consciousness and from there we manifest then positive things. The darkness within turns into positive attributes. Violence turns into virtues.

Where in the beginning there was light that did not know about wisdom, compassion, forgiveness, mutual understanding and acceptance, darkness was created and when it is internalized properly, such values not known before are born in our hearts.

I understand and definitely agree with the need to integrate both into the whole...and I thought I had expressed that. I guess I didn't do a very good job of it. My apologies.

All I was trying to say is that no matter what someone or anyone else tries to tell us, we always have a choice as to how we wish to interpret or react to something. No one else can tell us what is "right" or "wrong" for us, either. We all have the right to embrace what we wish and to create what we wish for ourselves...and whatever we may choose is exactly right for us.

I suppose my main objections were to the statements that "positive thinking" and "being happy" are "BS" and that "all our personal power resides in our 'shadow' side".

I merely intended to offer a different way of looking at it so that people could appreciate both sides of the issue and make up their own minds about it. I'm sorry if that was misinterpreted.

 

[KarlaSM]

Oh Stargazer I think it is wonderful that we all clarify some points even further, because this topic in itself can be so extensive.

One thing that I felt for a long time about positive thinking and mantras was that at some point in my own path those things would not work at all. Why? Because sometimes, when we carry certain wounds that are hidden deep in our subconscious, no matter how much you try on a mental level to reprogram, it will simply not work because it is like trying to brush on the surface a large chunk of mud.

If for example we carry lots of deep wounds of certain people treating us in a certain way, making us feel that you are ugly, then, no matter how much we repeat to ourselves "I am beautiful I am beautiful I am beautiful" that part of us will not accept the command, until the wounds are brought to the surface, understood their origins, make peace with them and then, only then, the positive command will be accepted.

 

[Lorna Wilson]

I suppose my main objections were to the statements that "positive thinking" and "being happy" are "BS" and that "all our personal power resides in our 'shadow' side".

Of course you must feel free to disagree with any and everything as we are all on our path and different places on them. I could have explained what I meant when I stated that our personal power resides in what we call our dark side had I been asked to. By now it must be obvious that I tend to use an economy of words.

'Darkness' as I can determine is what is identified as the Void. which is filled with all potential. We live in a time where things dark are looked at as negative. e.g Using the adjective 'black' generally denotes negative things, when in reality things are neither positive or negative, and that is both a paradox and a cosmic joke.

This is something I wrote a number of years ago which indirectly expresses what I saw at that time that instills within us a feeling of either 'dark' or 'negative' discomforts. It was about our fall in conscious awareness. http://www.esotericonline.net/profiles/blogs/falling-through-dimensions

I have found that everything is connected and to discover why we feel as you describe above its to find the connections and the original cause. Those can never be found primarily with or through the conscious mind, hence mantra's do not work in the short term and take discipline, and determination. One problem with them is that by default we are saying, knowing and subconsciously focused on the opposite of what the mantra states.

Very true. One of the advantages that we have now is the use of more efficient healing methods, that address then these problems.

That is what has underpinned the multi-billion self help industry where no one every really get's fixed but instead stay focused on what they believe about themselves. Imperfections have also been pushed by institution that seek to control, and primarily religions and the media push sin and self recriminations. We buy into them and belief them, especially when that premise is also spoon fed to incoming souls through family patterns.

To awaken from the dream/nightmare as far as I can see at this point is to realise that our programs are simply filters that color and manipulate our emotions for the soul purpose - pun intended - of providing us with opportunities to learn about the human condition. Now, depending on where we are incarnate within a planetary cycle, our perceptions of being human varies. In this time of toxic overload and mind viruses we are at a point in time/space that is particular , but not absolute or True in the long run.

 

[Lorna Wilson]

This may sound sacreligious to 'healers' but I don't believe that people need healing. They may believe it but I don't. What would happen if we all believed in ourselves and unconditionally accepted and embraced the impediments that we as soul has planned for oursleves. how then would we become? Of course when we want to reach for something 'higher' (more unified) in awareness then of course we can use various modalities to that aim.

Yes I agree with much being said. It is our experiences what shape our beliefs, and beliefs are then something personal. But when many people believe in one thing, then it turns into something collective. Control is also something that is seen everyday within households...the typical situation of a relative who is controlling so if at individual level we face this, then it is also seen at the macro level of institutions.

 

[KarlaSM]

The concept of healer depends on how it is defined and how it is perceived. Only we can know at individual level what we need, so you might not believe that others need healing, but that is something that only each one can know for sure. For me, healing is precisely related to those two concepts you mention about unification and seeking something higher.

In psychology the concept of healing is not mentioned but the psyche is cured by the integration of the disconnected parts of it, hence it is a form of unification of the traits that make up the individual personality.

In soul retrieval practices it is all about the integration of parts of the soul that are disconnected and brought back to harmony. For us who work consciously with energy and the psyche, we can see this process as something 100% tangible, when we see with our inner senses the energy that is floating outside of our auric field causing disharmony, or that is attached to other people (negative entities). So once we bring back and merge with our corresponding energies, then we become more whole or unified and our consciousness changes to reach a higher dimensional level.

Disease manifests precisely because of that disharmony and energetic brokenness that happened during traumatic experiences, affecting the mental, emotional and physical levels.

 

[Linda]

Ladies, thanks for sharing your ideas. I feel as though I've walked into a class in graduate school. I can feel these ideas rolling around, as I make sense of some recent events (spirit dog, and breaking up a fight). I will have more later.

 

[Lorna Wilson]

My understanding is that we preplan our experiences and time is not a factor in our pursuits. What would be the point of being born with a 'disablity' if we then spend our lives trying to get rid of it? There is so much growth that takes place from imperfections and vulnerabilities. Our society tends to think of them as something that is not 'good'.

 

[Stargazer]

If for example we carry lots of deep wounds of certain people treating us in a certain way, making us feel that you are ugly, then, no matter how much we repeat to ourselves "I am beautiful I am beautiful I am beautiful" that part of us will not accept the command, until the wounds are brought to the surface, understood their origins, make peace with them and then, only then, the positive command will be accepted.

Absolutely, Karla! AWESOME discussion!

For me, healing the old wounds is only a part of the process and that's why affirmations have been so helpful for my growth. Fortunately or unfortunately (depending upon the point of view) I've had over 50 years of "mental programming" that says I'm severely flawed, somehow "less than", or limited--and that negative message is continually reinforced by modern society countless times every day. Affirmations are just one of the ways I've found that I can "catch myself" and turn my thinking and my attitude around. Every time I notice a negative program running in my mind (one of limitation, lack, illness, separation, or the like) I find it no longer serves me--and I have to consciously "reprogram" myself to something more positive. That's where the affirmations come in. BTW, I call these negative thoughts and feelings "programs" because they're the way I've learned to think and feel from a very young age and I realize now that they're quite immature from a spiritual standpoint (but also quite human and perfectly OK).

'Darkness' as I can determine is what is identified as the Void. which is filled with all potential. We live in a time where things dark are looked at as negative. e.g Using the adjective 'black' generally denotes negative things, when in reality things are neither positive or negative, and that is both a paradox and a cosmic joke.

Thank you for clarifying that, Lorna. Now I better understand what you were saying...and I definitely agree. For me that's also the point of perfect balance...the point where we can choose that which we may wish to create or experience next.

This is something I wrote a number of years ago which indirectly expresses what I saw at that time that instills within us a feeling of either 'dark' or 'negative' discomforts. It was about our fall in conscious awareness. http://www.esotericonline.net/profiles/blogs/falling-through-dimensions

Great article! One thing I'm not sure about though is whether we were "pushed" away from Source or we actually "agreed" to do it at some level. A part of me really resonates with the idea that some insanely adventurous aspect of us may have volunteered for all this. I can almost see us as Spiritual Paratroopers, jumping out of the plane with gusto, then wondering what the hell we got ourselves into on the way down--and realizing it was much, much too late to do anything about it! LOL!

This may sound sacreligious to 'healers' but I don't believe that people need healing. They may believe it but I don't. What would happen if we all believed in ourselves and unconditionally accepted and embraced the impediments that we as soul has planned for oursleves. how then would we become? Of course when we want to reach for something 'higher' (more unified) in awareness then of course we can use various modalities to that aim.

My feeling is that (as you mention later, Lorna) our "Higher" Self or Soul does preplan many aspects of our life experiences...but therein lies the challenge AND the reward in the journey. It's all about how we deal with those challenges and, at the end of the day (or life, as it were) how we feel about the choices we've made and the experiences we've had along the way. If we've learned and grown from them, then I think we tend to feel at peace with things. If we've not taken advantage of or avoided these many opportunities, for whatever reason, perhaps we'll tend to feel much less so...and we may feel a need to repeat the class, so to speak.

Positive thinking and the wish or intention to be happy is far from being BS. I mean, seriously...who really wants to be in pain or misery all the time? In my experience, even those who seem to wallow in suffering want to find happiness. Many times, they just don't know how to climb out of their misery in order to find it (or perhaps they can't seem to find the motivation or energy to do so).

I am at the stage in my journey where if things are knocked off balance (due to my setting unconscious restrictions or harbouring expectations) I psychosomatically feel it in many places in my physical body. Which is damned annoying, but it just means I can't ignore the underlying root causes. And it is such a replay. It has gotten to the stage that when certain symptoms occur, I know how that is going to play out. But recently, during 2016, I have found that by being consciously aware of the track I have set out upon, I can stop going in that direction, and the health issues clear up, automatically.

The biggest things which start off this cycle of self-attack are perception of lack of appreciation, and also attachment to the thoughts and actions of others which I perceive to be jarring, or by judging them, throws me off balance.

I just have to get it, really GET IT, that I am not responsible for the train of consequence set off by the actions of others, even if they are in the small circle of my beloveds. By allowing myself to have a bad day because somebody else chooses to do or say a foolish thing, I am just perpetrating the dark side for myself. I suppose I just need to learn to sit back, and be there to help pick up the pieces, but not judge the person/s for creating the situation.

On the other hand, I just met with my ex-first husband, and he was saying that he, his current wife, his mother, and every friend of his that he has recounted his version of an old wound in our story, just can't understand me or my actions up to this current day. And I wished I could say, but didn't: "Well you wouldn't, because you don't realise you are a reptilian soul, my second husband is a Draco soul, and I am from Aldebaran!"

Great article! One thing I'm not sure about though is whether we were "pushed" away from Source or we actually "agreed" to do it at some level. A part of me really resonates with the idea that some insanely adventurous aspect of us may have volunteered for all this. I can almost see us as Spiritual Paratroopers, jumping out of the plane with gusto, then wondering what the hell we got ourselves into on the way down--and realizing it was much, much too late to do anything about it! LOL!

That was on the first trip, SG (LOL). Repetition brings it home. Scope of repeat is almost like 17,000.
