CHAPTER ONE
ANGELS: It is with great delight that we have this opportunity to speak with you, to work with you in this way and to share with you. As always, we introduce ourselves as Ariel, Michael and Gabriel and remind each and every one of you that all of the angels are available to each and every one of you, as we are not exclusive but come when called.
It is important that we begin today by stating and reminding each of you that you live in a benevolent universe. At this time in human history many of you are forgetting this, while simultaneously, many of you are also remembering the Truth of this statement. What we mean by the fact that you live in a benevolent universe is the idea that you create or co-create your own reality, and that you are not being given things to punish you, to harm you, or even, to harshly judge or teach you, but you are given things as a result of your own consciousness desiring and calling forth to you what it is that you believe on some level you either need, want, desire or at times fear.
Although it is hard to imagine that you call to you some of the events that you see around you or that you have experienced, you must understand that in order to step into a responsible or victimless attitude in it necessary to understand that many human beings, and that includes yourselves at times, are creating from past trauma. The human species is in fact a traumatized species. Once you have been traumatized and have awakened fear inside of your consciousness or your collective consciousness, it is easy to reawaken it, and in the reawakening of it, to re-attract the experiences that you fear most.
It is for this reason that those of you who are choosing to move ahead as spiritual beings and co-creating your reality must become aware of who you are on deeper and deeper levels. This awareness allows you to attract what you want and be aware when you are attracting to you things which you don't want. If you can root out and release old traumas or places of fear, whether from previous lives or the current lifetime, you are more likely to be manifesting from a cleared palette—a cleared energy field. Then you will know that the “magnet” you are—is creating and consciously drawing to you the experiences which support your soul’s growth and highest visioning.
We do not believe that it is necessary, in a sense, to always have what human beings think of as good or positive experiences to create growth, for humans have also been using experiences of pain and difficulty to bump themselves into a higher level of awareness or consciousness. Often times, however, you will find that your painful experiences, if they come too fast and too hard, become so overwhelming with darkness that you cannot release the pain or the darkness, you cannot transform or transmute the consciousness, and you become overwhelmed by the darkness. Thus, you create more darkness for the self and experiences that are painful for you.
This idea of moving into higher consciousness means increasing your own vibrational rate. Because your own vibrational rate is increasing, your ability to create and to draw and magnetize to you is also increasing. And because of that, it becomes ever more important that you become conscious; that you create and understand and align with the Bigger You: The you that is the Divine, that is Infinite, and that is expansive and knowing. As you become aware, root out the smaller self and replace it with your Higher Self.
This cannot always be done simply by saying, “I will it away.” Sometimes the wounding is so deep that it will take much time and many different methods of healing for you to release the wounding, to let it go, to clear out the puss, in a sense, from the wound, so that it becomes clean and you don't attract places and things to you that are magnetized by that wounding. The first step is always to understand and to recognize it. It is for that reason that you must be very brave to take a journey of higher awareness, a spiritual journey, and you must be willing to look at yourself with a very fine microscope, and be willing to be honest with yourself about what you are creating, about who you are, about where in fact you pass judgment on yourself, you pass judgment on others and to be willing to look at your fears. You must be willing to look at your limitations and to notice your self-conversation every day. Where is it that you say, “I'm no good?” Where is it that you say, “I can't do that; I can't have that; the world is a very bad place; the world is a dangerous place; I must always protect myself?” Where is it every day that you call those beliefs to you? You can be assured that if you are operating from those places that fear begins to arise. And where fear arises, energy is magnetized.
At this time, as many of you are aware, there is this thing going on that humans call the ascension of the earth. There seems to be an awakening and awareness and simultaneously many of you are seeing a microscope turned on to look into your own darkness and to the dankness or the shadow part of the human race. We like to let you know that it is because those places must be looked at, those places must be recognized, must be admitted to and must be transformed consciously, with knowledge. Something outside of yourselves is not going to just come in and wash it all away so you don't have to ever think about or deal with the things that are disturbing to you or that are blocking you.
But because you are, from our perspective, Masters, it is not our job here in the angelic realm to tell you what to do. It is not our job to live your lives for you, but it is our job to help you know and understand and recognize your Higher Self and to wed your Higher Self, your Mastery, with your human self. It is our job to help you root out those places where you still believe in your limited self, your limitations, where you might be still calling to you fear-based thoughts of illness, fear-based thoughts of poverty or loneliness, and help you to transmute and transform those places into something that makes you feel better. Not to just paint over those places and whitewash them and pretend, by putting some sugar coating over your wounds and let the wounding seep down inside of you; that is not what we're here to do and it is not what the energies of the ascension are here to do. The frequencies of the ascension are here to bring the wounding to the surface, to help transform it and transmute it, and then to call forth a higher frequency, which some of you have dubbed the fifth dimensional realm or fifth dimensional frequency.
We explain to many people that when we speak of dimensions, we are speaking of levels of consciousness. That is something that is very important for you all to understand, and perhaps you will ask a question about how to raise your consciousness and what consciousness is and how to live in a higher consciousness, so that you can be happy while on the earth and not feel fear or frightened about those things which you consider perhaps impending or a danger.
So, we welcome you here today and we understand that as each one of you transforms yourself and becomes your angelic self while in human body you assist all others to come closer to their angelic selves. And rather than thinking of that as being a fantasy or something unattainable, we ask each of you to be willing to make the step and a leap into your angelic selves and look at and recognize where it is that you might be holding yourself back from believing that it is indeed possible to be a human angel.
We invite your questions. We thank you so much because, as we like to explain to human beings, we learn and there is a realm here that is real and a realm here that is conscious, a realm here that is growing. And as we are given the opportunity, our task, which is to assist and to learn from the human race.
