Mother Mary:
The Turmoil Around You

Excerpt from a message channeled by Antera on 9/12/04.

The heart is the key. As the heart opens, all of your energy opens, until it is open and flowing and far beyond your normal waking consciousness. As you move into that beautiful altered space, you remember who you really are. This is where you know the Divine Plan and that you are right where you need to be. You can see your soul's plan and all that you have set up for yourself, from this vast perspective.

Expand even more into this space, where you are completely protected, where you are completely aligned with the Higher Will, with the Higher Mind, with your I AM Presence. Beam forth your love of yourself, the personality and the physical being. Beam forth your love for the life that you have, for all of humanity as well as all the other life forms, and for the planet itself. Feel this kind of love flowing forth.

When you can really feel that way all the time, then you know you are connected, that nothing can perturb you, that you can walk through the greatest turmoil without it affecting you. Because you know that you are aligned with the highest sources, with those sources that see the human turmoil and human experience as far removed, as minor, minor disturbances compared to the vastness of space, compared to the vastness of all the other dimensions where you exist.

All that goes on in the human plane is so small, so seemingly insignificant when you are aligned with all of your other bodies, all of your other expressions within the higher dimensions. You can see from the higher perspective that all of those little dramas taking place on the planet are so minor, and what is really important is the big picture, the outer layers, the higher vibratory layers.

But even though all the dramas and turmoil can seem minor from the higher perspective, they are taken seriously. Without getting entangled in them, they are nonetheless taken seriously, because all that happens on the planet affects the other dimensions--especially now, because the planet has grown so charged up through human emotion and thoughtforms. It is so charged up now that it affects much more than the physical plane.

The effect of this highly charged area of space extends into the other dimensions. The discord that comes off of this planet affects the songs of the other planets in this system, and of the sun, and extends out into other galaxies, and other dimensions that are nonphysical. This discord is heard throughout the universe and other universes. This is why so much attention has been drawn to this planet.

The disturbances and turmoil that occur around you, and will be increasingly occurring in the years to come, are easily "catching," so to speak. Even though it is not easy to rise above this, it can be done. You can walk the earth amid the turmoil and not let it make you full of turmoil. This is the goal--to be beacons of Light on the planet at this time of tremendous growth opportunity as well as opportunity to fail and fall miserably. There is this opportunity to maintain your center and become the beacon of Light that others can come to for stability, purpose, and hope--someone to look to, someone with experience, someone who can hold their center amid the chaos. This is the job of the lightbearers during this time.

And do not expect it to be easy! No one ever told you it would be easy. We have never said that. We have always said "Look out! It's coming!" And we have told you, "It is coming and we need you," and "Please come to the aid of the planet. Please do everything you can!" We need you to be strong. The planet needs you to be strong now.

None of the turmoil has to affect you. It doesn't mean that you do not understand the issues and have compassion, and take action where necessary, but it does mean that you do not get caught up in the anger, sadness, hopelessness, frustration, and all the other emotions that come up with people. Because if it can stick, it will. Emotions are so easily "caught." They are like illnesses. You can catch anger, and you can catch sadness. You can catch, so to speak, the emotional tone that is around you so easily--all humans do. But those of you who are clearing your emotional bodies out so that there is less "stickiness" to you, you can walk among the turmoil and hold your center.
