This was a tough weekend for all of us to process with the news of another mass shooting, this time at a movie theatre in Aurora, Colorado. I woke up Friday at 1:30AM, which was around the time the shootings occurred, very tense and agitated and could not go back to sleep. I also posted something on Facebook about courage at around 5AM, still unaware of what had happened.

Then I heard the news and knew why I was up all night. As empaths we feel these intense energies in a profound way, and we can wonder why this happens and whether it will ever end. But while it’s a dark moment, it is also an opportunity for profound awakening.

I have often written about compassion vortexes, which Uriel describes as energetic openings that allow the expansion of love as we respond to tragedy with compassion and open our hearts to those affected. In this case 12 people died and dozens were wounded in an act that affected hundreds of families and friends, a community, state, nation and the world.

Given how many people are new to Ascension, we repost this series from 2011 to introduce new readers to aspects of Ascension.

Increasing Light Causes Ascension

SaLuSa made a number of interesting comments recently that demonstrate that the Light forces who are working to bring Ascension to this planet are doing so by increasing the light quotients hitting the planet.

He made his comments specifically in light of the popular revolt that has hit North Africa at this time (Feb. 10, 2011) and explains that increasing light is behind the dissent. He said:

“With our presence even if you are not fully aware of what we are doing, the energies around Earth are playing upon the consciousness of many who see it is their duty to take action.” (1)

Blessed Beings of Light, I bring you this truth: You are NOT alone.

Tidings of love and compassion, encouragement and resonance with your ultimate intention radiate from us to you, meeting you with understanding, timeless appreciation and devotion.  We too are in this pressure-cooker of time and space as focus with you, awaiting the ripening of you true being, knowing this intensification serves your ultimate purpose and therefore encouraging you, cheering you on, reminding you of what is around the bend, and why you came here. 

Before you chose to incarnate from light into form as you now find yourself, you were quite decisive about doing so.  None of you here came without your own free choice to be here.  And many of you were rushing to get here–there would be no stopping you whatever.  {Smile!}  The reason we say this to you is to awaken that knowing within you that remains clear as to the amazing adventure and opportunities for evolution of soul, that precipitated your participation.

AngelicView:Grabbing my attention

I’ve had quite a few discussions with people since writing the article on peace descending. (1) And a common theme that’s emerging is that people are having difficulty adjusting to the lack of apparent action around us.

When Archangel Michael told us that the celestials preferred to use containment to mass arrests, a lot of us were irritated. It’s as if we wanted the ritual, drama, and completion that mass arrests might have brought us.

We didn’t seem to care much about the risks of loosing a genie that we might have difficulty putting back in the bottle. We seemed to want action.

The Twelfth Release:

Peace be with you this day. For, it is peace that you seek and it is peace that will visit you this day.

Doubts will cease and faith will arise within you. Faith in yourself and faith in God. A God that has never left you, but has waited patiently for your arrival.

Yes, your arrival. For, it is you who will decide and it is you that has willed this day to come.

So, now let Peace surround you and fill you with its' radiance.
