All Saints Transmissions: The Play of Shadows

All Saints Transmissions: Mother Mary
Light without shadows? Not possible.

ST: Today you bring up an interesting topic Mother Mary, and that is shadows.  We all know in theory that light casts shadows, but tell us how following shadows can heal our deepest wounds.

Mother Mary: Good morning, afternoon or evening, depending where you are in the world.  And speaking of where you are in the world, you are either under the influence of the moon or the sun's light, no? Or you seen the pinpoints of stars in the heavens, especially if you are in a place with less man made lighting.  Think of yourself walking down the sidewalk on a bright sunny day and look at your shadow. Which direction does it point? Are you afraid of your shadow? Do you try to play with it, chase it away, play hide and seek with it? Even if you try to ignore your shadow it doesn't hide from you or disappear until the light source dims its edges.

Now think about how this shadow work inhabits your life.  Let's look at shadows more as a symbol.  Let's call your shadows your deepest wounds or false beliefs about yourself, the place where you fall into denial and can't get back up.  (A little humor there).  Now, when you walk down the sidewalk and the sun is shining down on you, you might ignore your shadows as you go about your business, pretending as life expects you to do, as you play whatever role, but others see your shadows.  But the odd thing is they see your shadow, but not their own, and so it goes.

Now, your shadow could be false sincerity and false kindness as you try desperately to cover up your arrogance.  But instead of covering up your arrogance with a mask, why not heal it? In order to heal your arrogance, you need to dig for the root cause and this takes compassion as well as, detached observation.  So maybe you need some help with this in the form of a healer, teacher, or therapist.  So you start digging into this place we call shadow.  At first, you run and hide from the shadow, but it finds you every time. So you try to bury this shadow (wound) deeper hoping no one will notice the deep gash on your soul. But know this, you fool no one.  And when you fool no one, and you don't deal with the shadow proactively, then you attract pity and lots of it.

Some people actually enjoy attracting pity because that's better than attracting no attention at all, but when they live this way, nothing good comes their way, and if it does, the good fades quickly.  Pity is one of the lowest vibrations and it can only attract low vibrational situations.  So if you enjoy drama, pain, and suffering, by all means, keep the pity party going.  Otherwise, you need to acknowledge your shadows and heal them through love and compassion and forgiveness of yourself and others, but especially yourself.

So you ask, "How do I heal my shadows?"  Well, through other people, my dears.  Everyone and everything is a mirror to your soul, and both qualities that disturb and delight you in others, are your shadows or unclaimed parts of your soul.  It's not easy to reclaim yourself because you have been shamed, and blamed, controlled and manipulated by others, more fearful than you, who have forced their beliefs, patterns, and attitudes on you.  It's equivalent to rape or vampirism of the soul.  Not everyone intends to harm you in this way, in fact most souls you encounter mean no harm, but they have been harmed so they pass on the virus so to speak.  There are also people who do wish to harm you because they perceive you as an enemy.  These souls aren't so easy to spot.  Ask for protection from your Spirit Guides always for this reason.

But even with all of that, you are responsible for the well-being of your soul.  You can chase your shadows, and learn from them.  Reclaim those parts of yourself deemed shameful by others and realize that the God experience encompasses all emotions, all feelings, and everything you can imagine and everything beyond your imagination.  What you project, you protect and ensure its lifespan.  So if you project positive qualities like love, kindness, healthy power, etc...then wonderful, if you project self-righteousness, hatred, and low vibrations, then you have work to do.

Now, before you start feeling sorry for yourself again or fall into despair, remember that every soul has shadows and projections.  You're not alone.  But if you do the work and ask for appropriate help, you empower yourself while giving up some bad habits, and accepting less desirable parts of your soul that you transform into something useful.  The opposite of hatred is love so transform your hatred into powerful love.  It's not easy, but you are capable of this kind of work or you would not be reading my words.

So remember that light always casts a shadow and that a shadow leads you to your wounds.  Once you know about your wounds you can heal them.  Denial saved no one. Denial is a form of hell.  Acceptance and empowerment leads you to your heaven and true liberation. But you must wake up and do the work.  Remember that we always love you.


Blessings,

Mother Mary

All Saints Transmission: Message from Corinthians

I will not be posting transmissions for the next two weeks.  I'm in the process of relocating to a new apartment.  Here is a Hymn to Love from Letters to Corinthians by Saint Paul.  The theme fits in with this blog.



The Letters of Corinthians

I might speak with tongues of men and angels, but if I have not love, I am become no better than echoing brass or a clanging cymbal.  I may have the gift of prophecy, I may understand all sacred secrets and all knowledge, I may have faith enough to remove mountains, but if I have not love I am nothing. I may dole out all that I have, I may surrender my body that I may be burned, but if I have not love it is no good to me.

Love is patient; love is kind; love knows no envy; love is no braggart; it is not inflated with its own self-importance; it does not behave gracelessly; it does not insist on its rights; it never flies into a temper; it does not store up the memory of any wrong it has received; it finds no pleasure in evil-doing; it rejoices with the truth; it can endure anything; it is completely trusting; it never ceases to hope; it bears everything with triumphant fortitude.

Love never fails.  Whatever prophecies there are, they will cease. Whatever knowledge we have will pass away.  It is only part of the truth that we know now and only part of the truth that we can foretell to others.  But when that is complete shall come, that which is incomplete will vanish away.  When I was a child I used to speak like a child; I used to think like a child; I used to reason like a child.  When I became a man I put an end to childish things.  Now we see only reflections in a mirror which leaves us with nothing but riddles to solve, but then we shall see face to face.  Now I know in part; but then I’ll know even as I am known. Now faith; hope, love remain—these three; but the greatest of these is love.

All Saints Transmission: Saint Jude's Wisdom

Saints Transmissions: Saint Jude

When Someone is in Trouble Assume the Worst


ST: Dear Jude, what do you mean by when someone is in trouble to assume the worst? Isn’t this negative programming? Why should we assume the worst scenario?


Saint Jude: Good day to all. So many times we see a person or non-human in trouble and we walk away thinking someone else will solve the problem. But this isn’t always the case. Sometimes the saints and angels are calling on you to help this soul. But you might rationalize that the problem isn’t so big, or that someone else will come along with a solution so you do nothing when you should have done something. Do you see where I’m going?


You might also feel that there are too many people, organizations, animals, the environment etc in need and you can’t keep up with it all. This is understandable, but we’re not asking you to help every animal, every human or to solve all the environmental problems. But if someone or some problem comes to you, it needs your attention. You might not have money to hand out, but you might know of an organization that can help someone in need or you might just lend an ear to someone who needs some comfort and validation. Because you see what happens when a catastrophe or reversal of fortune happens to someone they blame themselves. They sink deeper and deeper into-a-hole thinking they are the worst person on the planet and deserve the punishment.


I’m not saying that karma and the law of cause and effect don’t exist. They are very much part of your reality. But as one of your psychic friends once pointed out, maybe it is your karma to help this person out in some way. How do you expect a person to get on the right path if everyone treats them cruelly? I’m not saying that there aren’t con artists and scams out there of people posing in need and begging for your mercy. Those people exist so use discernment. But if you know someone, a friend or a colleague in trouble and you don’t offer help, what kind of karma do you think you will accrue? When God calls on you to help someone and you ignore the call, what do you think happens to your luck? This is negative behavior—turning away from a friend in need. I’m not asking you to solve the person’s problems, but to at least give the person a leg up and help them get their thoughts in order. Offer words of encouragement and comfort.


There will be times when you will need those comforting words yourself, if not now. If you are the introverted type then at least pray for others, but don’t pray for them to change their lives, but to come up with solutions or to change their perceptions. Don’t pray for disasters not to occur because then you are disturbing the Divine Plan or Mother Earth’s need to purge. Some things you will have to endure as part of balancing the collective karma. Some of you will perish now. Many of you will perish now, but the After Life will bring peace to your soul if you allow it. Some of you will stay on the planet during a transition period and then return to the God Source. Others will stay on indefinitely and give birth to a new age, but about one third of the current earth’s inhabitants. Now, you might think this is a lottery of souls and wonder if you have the right numbers. I won’t tell you that. Allow the Great Mystery to unravel. And know that it is not shameful if you leave the planet now or in the near future. Only your soul and your Guardian Angels know your destiny.


And don’t imagine that the only people who stay upon the earth are practicing alternative spirituality and living a sustainable lifestyle. While we commend these behaviors, we’re not dealing with a reward and punishment situation. Although low-vibe people will not stay upon the earth unless they raise their vibration and balance their karma now. Some high vibration people have chosen to leave the planet now too. They feel that they have completed the work they came to do and their souls wish to return to the source. The high and low vibration souls will not go to the same realm. Low vibration souls will either be put to sleep for a 100+ years or they will be sent to a cosmic center for deep healing. Again, we can’t predict which souls go where.


So getting back to today’s theme, if a friend of yours is in trouble, do what you can to help them. I know it is easy to rationalize and make excuses. It is easy to focus on your own problems, but that friend is a mirror to your own behavior so by healing some part of their situation you also heal your own soul. When you please the angels and saints, you balance karma. When you balance karma you feel that your fortune changes from bad to good, relatively speaking. So that tornado that was supposed to kill you suddenly veers in the opposite direction. That car that was supposed to slam into your car causing a fatal accident misses your car.


I hope this clears up confusion regarding lending a helping hand during chaotic times. Remember that we always love and bless you especially when you stumble in the dark.


Blessings,


Saint Jude

All Saints Transmission: Saint Jude on the Power of Prayer

Saints Transmissions: Saint Jude

The Power of Prayer
ST: We hear a lot about the power of prayer. We also hear about the wrong and right way to pray to God, the saints or other messengers. So please tell us how to pray best and what to do if we don’t think that we are getting results.


Saint Jude: First of all, you cannot think of prayer as a business transaction, nor can you think of it as applying for a grant or assistance. In order for prayer to work you must realize that you are co-creators with God. You can pray to saints, angels, ancestors, and avatars if you will, but remember that we are merely post messengers and only deliver your prayers to God. We intercede on your behalf and even change the way you pray.


Now, if what you seek are solutions and sage wisdom then simply talk to us as friends and guidance counselors for that is what we are to you. We can give you advice for money, but we cannot bring you money, though it is different for angels who can. You can pray to us for miracles, knowing full well that the miracles come from your co-creation with God-Goddess, and not us saints. But what saints can teach is that total letting go, surrendering to the Higher Being and Higher Consciousness. We can lead the way to that. We can also help you endure suffering, see past illusions, and connect with God.


Is there a right or wrong way to pray? I don’t think so. There is only the consciousness of where you currently reside. So if you pray from what others might call a selfish place or a self-centered place without considering the bigger picture then that’s just where you are within the realms at this time, and I would say you reside in one of the lower realms. But if you pray in a Buddhist type way where you extend your prayer to include others suffering in the same boat, then I tell you, you are in a higher realm of being. You have envisioned the bigger picture, you can see that you are not alone in your suffering and in fact, have all of humanity as company.


Many of you pray for healing from various ailments and disease. Some of you pray for money so you can pay the rent and not end up on the streets of any given town or city. Some of you pray for a good harvest, some of you pray to be spared from disasters, and some of you pray for the well-being of others. And while that looks altruistic to pray for the well-being of others, remember that karma plays a role here so do not try to change the course of events for yourself or others. Do not try to control and manipulate the healing process of others or think that your prayers are so powerful that you can move mountains so to speak. This is just arrogance and you’re not praying to God at all. This is what we call a Neapoleon complex… and do not take on anyone else’s battles ever. Just pray for understanding, pray for compassion for others and pray for ways to help others in need. But don’t assume that you have the solution to your or other people’s problems and then tell God what needs to be done. Don’t you think that God already has the answer?


And let’s get into karma a bit here. You all have karma both good and bad whether you like this or not. Sure you can deny that karma exist—how convenient. But the fact is you have lived through many lifetimes and you weren’t a saint in most of them. Each of you has done your share of murder, rape, thievery and you name it, you’ve done it. You have also saved lives, rescued animals, prayed, chanted, meditated, and perhaps reached enlightenment in one or more lifetimes. Only God knows what your karmic record is, but healers have access to it. So in light of this, you cannot, unless you have been ordained in some way, release someone from their karmic path. You cannot stop disasters though you can pray that the victims get the help they need, or you can offer help yourself. You can be an answer to someone else’s prayer. And do that by following inner guidance or call it what you will, intuition. You do this by engaging in the flow of synchronicity and inspirations. You do this by paying attention to your dreams and the dreams of others when revealed. You give advice to others only when they ask and you say, this is my opinion, or this is what I would do in your situation. Then you let it go and let that person decide his or her fate for him or herself. Do you see where this is going?


Many of you don’t believe in God. You go to church, you pray and you hang out with religious people, but you don’t believe in God. You have an ideal of who God is and what God does, but this isn’t based on reality. You don’t take responsibility for co-creation and push your will onto the world and onto others. You tell people who God is and give them a bunch of rules to follow. But remember that you are God and God is you. I don’t mean this in the egotistical sense, but in the adult responsibility sense. You must take responsibility for your co-creation. What exactly are you contributing to the world with your thoughts, actions, and feelings? I know these are harsh words to your ears and eyes, but ask yourself this important and difficult question.


I am the saint of impossible causes, but what does this mean exactly? It means that I take on difficult people and circumstances. It means that I don’t deliver a message or a lesson in a pretty package tied with a pink ribbon. There are no cherubs hanging out around me and for good reason. I’m not a milk and cookies kind of saint, but one that comes along when you are set to meet your greatest challenges, learn from them, grow from them, and then teach those lessons to others through whatever means. You might teach through example like Joan of Arc (Jeanne d’Arc) or you might write and publish a book with seven easy steps to enlightenment. But either way, you have to learn your lessons first.

You ask me about the power of prayer and if you pray the right way then you see the answer to your prayers. The right way to pray is open-ended and is not about results. You cannot pray with a goal or mission in mind, but pray that what would suit you best for the Highest Good is already here. Pray in the present not the future or the past. You only live in the present and you know the rest of that is illusion. Don’t allow your memory or nostalgia to serve you. I would even go as far as to say forget the past. And don’t fret about the future. You create your future now in this moment with your thoughts, feelings, and actions. So when you pray, do so in the present. Pray to know forgiveness, compassion and the simple way. Then don’t look for results but go about living your life the best way that you can. Love everyone to the best of your abilities and Love always. Love is the answer. The Beatles knew and so do you.


Remember that we love you alway.

Blessings,

All Saints Transmission: Saint Jude (Be Mindful of Mindfulness)

Saints Transmissions: Saint Jude
The Game is Mindfulness

ST: Hello and good morning Saint Jude.  We hear a lot about mindfulness, but what does this mean and how do we walk our talk? How do we grow in consciousness while living and breathing each moment as it comes? It seems that we worry too much about the future so what advice do you have for us?

Saint Jude: Good precious day to each of you.  Mindfulness is a journey that begins one step at a time; one action at a time.  You don’t just get there by thinking about becoming more mindful.  You pray, you meditate, and you seek guidance from a higher self. You pay attention to your dreams, watch spiritual movies, hang around spiritual people, attend workshops, and read spiritual books.  You dance to high vibrational music and practice energy medicine.  Don’t forget to eat a healthy diet of organic and untainted foods.  The important first step is to raise your vibration/frequency.  By doing this it is easier to feel and express love and gratitude.

So you probably think about this catch-22 situation.  How do I attract high vibration food, music and other things if I’m at a low frequency? The first step is to express love and gratitude for what you currently have and where you currently are.  In the movie “The Celestine Prophecy” (I recommend that you all watch or re-watch this important metaphysical movie), Father Jose tells John W. that there are no errors of judgment, but that you are too quick to judge a situation as good or bad, without seeing the greater or higher meaning in the situation.  I would give this same advice and in fact, this is the advice of the saints.  Now, you must remember that saints did not live “heavenly” lives filled with pleasurable encounters and events.  We too experienced our share of toil and grief, especially the Franciscans.  They often were homeless, and didn’t know where their next meal was coming from.  Martyred saints spent time in prison, endured torture and hung onto their faith.  Penitent saints walked pilgrimages, thousands of miles in a lifetime with just the clothes on their backs and faith in their hearts.

Angels also place themselves in great danger to bring messages to humanity and other creatures.  They put themselves in great danger to protect you from wars or if you are especially a soldier in war.  If you have chosen the path of a light worker (and you have if you find yourself reading this blog), then expect calamity and catastrophe to visit you at some point in your life because you will be tested every step of the way.  You pass one initiation only to find yourself at the beginning of the next one.  You can complain all you want and we will listen to your laments, but we cannot remove these lessons from your life.  So let’s get back to your question of mindfulness.

Live and breathe deeply in each moment.  Practice gratitude for what you believe is working in your life and focus on the lessons currently presenting themselves to you.  Refrain from judging yourself or your circumstances and give up this idea that you actually have control over your life. Even those higher beings who know and serve their life paths realize that they have no control over the outcome of their actions.  You must act from your heart and intuition and engage in the flow.  You can also pray for the people and resources you need to fulfill your path/destiny.  All the saints did this.  The Buddhas have done this and Yeshua did this but always thanked God in advance, as so should you.  Remember Gratitude is a powerful tool and I ask you to use it often.

When you feel that you have been lead astray find your center.  Your center is always your heart and it is always love so get back in touch with that love.  In each moment as you make decisions for the next moment, get in touch with yourself and look at your choices.  Determine which choice comes from love and let go of the other.  Someone might hurt you and you want to respond in anger.  Now, I’m not telling you that anger is a bad thing because sometimes it can move mountains, shift energy, and create a new path by releasing the old way.  But anger finds its roots in fear and fear is not love.  So you have to decide in that moment if telling someone off is going to solve your problem.  Another thing I want you to remember is that every one of you is connected. Think of yourself in a circle or a wheel.  You send out a ripple of good or bad energy (relatively speaking) and that energy returns to you after it has passed through the other souls.  Now if that energy is angry and harmful do you want it returning to you a million fold or a billion fold? I would guess that the answer is no.  So if you choose to practice mindfulness then think about this rippling effect.  It is crucial that you do that.

The other thing I want to remind you of is that none of you are independent of another. We all depend on the entire human race to live, eat, walk and every other activity we do through the course of a day.  Someone grew your food, someone breathed in the air that you breathe in now, someone built the streets, your house, or supplied you with basic material or services.  So when you practice gratitude remember this Great Web of humanity and non-human creatures.  This is something Francesco and the Franciscans did well.  They would spend hours practicing gratitude and contemplating this web and how we are all connected.  You might not even like a certain person or kind of person, but that person is part of you.  You can’t avoid this.  If you want to practice Unity Consciousness then you must take what you believe is the good with the bad, and the ignorant with the wise.

Also stay open to the people you meet, even the annoying ones.  They all have something to teach you about yourself and about the world.  Stay open but don’t allow yourself to become hypnotized by other people’s dramas and energy.  Stay away from the media when possible and only listen to high vibrational music.  There was a good reason why Mozart and his colleagues visited the planet and left their signatures behind.  They spoke in the music of the spheres and this is heavenly music.  Some souls aren’t ready to hear it yet, but soon…. You must stay on your paths.

So in a nutshell this is what I can tell you about mindfulness.  If you are serious about growing in consciousness then take our advice.  I can’t swing a magic wand over you and transform your life, but I can lead you step by step on a horrendous path that eventually leads to enlightenment.  As I mentioned earlier those of you who chose the path of light workers, you will need to experience humility through trying circumstances.  These aren’t easy times for you and I advise you to find and connect with your brethren.  Find communities of like-minded individuals.  Then choose if your path is that of the spiritual warrior or the peacemaker.   Or are you a healer? These are actually separate paths and I advise you not to combine them or mix and match.  Buddha was a peacemaker, but Yeshua was a spiritual warrior if this gives you a clue.  Saints Clare and Hildegard von Bingen were healers and Francesco was an activist even though he saw himself as a peacemaker.    We all make mistakes, even saints. LOL

So onward you go and remember that we always love you and bless you.

Blessings,

Saint Jude

Saints Transmissions: Francesco of Assisi--To Be

Saints Transmissions: Saint Francesco of Assisi

Be Onto Others


ST: I find myself constantly judging others and many people have annoying habits that irritate me such as bragging about themselves, gossiping, or complaining about situations in which they don’t clearly have the facts. Name dropping bothers me too and I simply cannot stand hanging around people who feel that they are the center of the Universe and never practice any mindfulness. For example, men who don’t put the toilet seat down when they’re through using the toilet or people who leave the cap off of the toothpaste hoping someone else will put the cap on for them. This is okay for children, but I’m talking about adults.

Saint Francesco of Assisi: Yes, it is hard living among our brothers and sisters especially the less conscious ones. How do you feel compassion for someone wrapped up in them? How do you deal with people who spout off violent sentiments and words most of the time when they don’t even have the facts? How do you deal with people who gossip and judge others so that they can feel more righteous and lift them above the rest of humanity? These are ancient problems and the solutions are actually ancient too. Just look to the teachings of our Great Spiritual Mothers and Fathers.


Let’s look at Buddha for example. Buddha says that the path to enlightenment is to rise above ourselves and to connect with our higher self, that part of us that is connected to God or the Divine. Buddha would tell us to detach from our personal stories and practice non-attachment compassion. Still how do we do that? How do we detach from our emotions and still feel something as profound as compassion? This we struggle with and believe me the Buddhist path is no easier than a mystical Christian or mystical Jewish or mystical Muslim path. We can no longer allow others to push our buttons and the only way to reach that point is to deeply heal our wounds. In order to do that you have to admit that you have wounds and then allow those wounds to come up to the surface. You know a wound is most gruesome right before a true healing occurs.


I’ll give you an example. A soldier is injured in battle, a deep gashing wound. The wound is stitched and bandaged but without removing the bacteria that causes infection. So even though this wound is covered with a neat white bandage, it’s festering and can lead to gangrene. So a surgeon must remove the stitches and clean out the infection from the wound before it can heal. Now apply this same concept to stuck emotions and old wounds. You might cover up those wounds by pretending they don’t actually exist or rationalizing that you are silly to care about the hurt you feel. You might busy yourself or get involved in a relationship (that won’t work out unless you heal those wounds), or you might feed an addiction so you can avoid dealing with those wounds. But now they fester and only that you become emotionally numb which isn’t the same as emotionally detached. So you see where this is going. You cannot live a mindful life and not deal with these wounds. And dealing with emotional wounds means that you must revisit painful experiences, but this time from a place of deeper understanding—something we call compassion. Now do you see where this is going?


Now once you heal these wounds other people’s behavior won’t bother or irritate you. I guarantee this. The reason for this healing is that you are no longer providing a mirror for other people’s behavior. They are no longer providing a reflective surface to you to witness your shadow parts and patterns. Then my dear when you reach this point, you are enlightened. Only the thing about enlightenment is that you don’t realize you are enlightened or if you do you’re not going to brag about it. An enlightened person doesn’t walk up to you and point out the obvious simply because the enlightened person doesn’t care what anyone thinks of him or her. Ego has been squelched. When you finally reach that place of Unity Consciousness you know that to judge others is to judge yourself. But you’re healed by this point and whatever you see in others is their enlightened or higher selves. You have obtained the keys to Nirvana and you can choose to stay there or get involved in the cosmic cycle once again.


Now I mentioned Buddha, but you can apply these same teachings to any spiritual master because this is the only game in town so to speak. If you want to feel closer to God, and the God within you, you must clean out those wounds and endure the process or the journey that it involves. Think of yourself as a knight going into battle with a fierce dragon or use whatever symbolic story will guide you through this journey. Don’t allow complacency in the door. And watch for arrogance, greed, and hatred. Watch for fear and send it running. You only need to focus on love, kindness, and compassion. Live your life in simplicity and you will experience less distractions and more time with the Divine. When you have many things, you have many bills and many worries. There is too huge a price to pay for luxuries and success. The true success is Spiritual Enlightenment and everything else is hooked to a story (which you need to toss out) or an addiction of one kind or another. Of course you are the one who must decide if you want to obtain enlightenment in this lifetime. If the answer is yes, then I advise you to get to work and to unburden yourself before Mother Earth does that for you.


Remember that we love you.


Blessings,


Saint Francesco of Assisi

All Saints Transmission: Saint Jude

Saints Transmissions: Saint Jude



Leave the irrelevant behind/Visit the Inner Sanctum


ST: Dear Jude you tell me about leaving irrelevant stuff behind and focusing on the necessary only. You tell me to leave superficial concerns behind and toss out negative thoughts, beliefs and patterns. You also tell me to visit my inner sanctum often, but how do I achieve this in such a chaotic world with so much energy and information flying in my face?


Saint Jude: You are not the only person with these concerns. You are right to call your world chaotic, but there is stillness in each and every one of you that you must visit often. Still you ask, “How do we do this?” And there are steps you can take that have been with you since ancient times, in fact, since the beginning of time. You already know what they are. You can find a guru or teacher to set you on the right path or you can stumble in the dark learning how to find this place on your own. In either case you will find it eventually and once you do find it, spend as much time there as you can.


Some of you live near or in natural settings where you can retreat often. Some of you have quiet places to pray and to meditate, and some of you don’t. Some of you literally live in war zones or refugee camps. Some of you live in shelters for the homeless or victims of domestic violence and some of you live on dangerous streets and not in houses. But all of you can still find that inner sanctum, a place where God resides and a place that never leaves you. You might experience glimpses of it throughout the day, those moments of silence between silence or those moments of silence between chaotic moments. It might feel like a crack in time in which you can enter even if briefly.


All of you have God inside you no matter what those genetic specialists and scientists say about some of you possess a god gene and some of you not possessing one. That is nonsense and can destroy a person’s psyche or morale so I ask you not to believe any of this information. All it does is divide you once again into categories and it promotes dualistic thinking. Remember the Dr. Seuss stories in which cartoon-like characters learned these moral lessons? Well, don’t forget those stories. You truly are all equal in God’s eyes, only in the eyes of other humans are you demeaned to a category or asked to accept some distorted identification of you.


So I ask you to toss out all this nonsense and anything that defines you in such a way that you lose your way to God’s love. There are no right paths or wrong paths, but one road that leads to the same place and that place is called Divine Love. It will find you in your most pleasurable moments and your most painful ones. Divine Love and Divine Grace fly in through the windows, seep in through the cracks, and find you at your lowest point. You cannot know love or grace if you have nothing to contrasts and compare them to. You cannot have rain without clouds or light without luminaries floating across the sky. God created a perfect world if only you could view it without distortions.


And those distortions are represented by limiting thoughts and beliefs that you are not loveable and that you are not loved and that you cannot love others. Someone, maybe an authority figure or someone you placed too much trust in told you that you are limited in some way, that you can’t relate to others and that you will never succeed in life. Don’t believe any of it. A doctor or specialist might have diagnosed you with a disease of the body or mind. He or she might have dumped a bunch of labels and identifications on you, but this isn’t the REAL YOU. You are a divine creature created by a DIVINE BEING. You are just a much a part of this universe as a beautiful sunflower reaching for the sun, or a flock of geese flying beneath a full moon on a cloudless night. You are much a part of God’s Love as the most enlightened. You are part of the rainbow, and part of the Great Spectrum of life. No life is wasted here, and in order to find out your role on this earth you must seek healing if you need it. Swallow your pride so that you seek this healing. Allow others to help you, but only if these people don’t expect something in return. Don’t allow others to control or manipulate you, to call you names, or to dump labels on you.


Find your inner sanctum and there you will find the necessities and tools for living a rich life. And when I say rich, I’m not just talking monetary abundance, but a rich life for the soul. Many millionaires are bankrupt in this regard. They have everything material and nothing spiritual. They can wield power in the material world but are bankrupt in the spiritual teachers’ eyes. You know exactly what I’m talking about here. Saint Francesco and Chiara were right and righteous when they removed the distraction of materialism from their lives. They in turn made space for the Divine and in that space found their inner sanctum. Now, I keep coming back to this point because you might have to toss out a lot of nonsense and superficial goods in order to reach this place.


Keep what you need the most and give the rest away. Do not hoard anything not even as an earthquake kit. This only implies that you don’t trust in God to provide. Anytime you hoard or save a closet-full of material goods that you never use, you lack trust in the Divine. Now of course I ask you to discriminate and decide properly what is necessary for you to survive and to thrive in this world, just don’t go overboard say creating bunkers of stuff in case some big catastrophe arrives. This goes against your everyday logic. But bear with me.


So your lesson for this week is to take the first step on the path to your inner sanctum. Meditate for at least 15 minutes in a quiet space even if you need to go to a secluded park or erect a tent in your yard. You can all find a quiet place for this. And get in touch with your inner spiritual teachers. Then ask them about your next step in this process. Keep in contact with these guides and each day you will grow a bit like a plant germinating then sprouting out of the soil in the spring. Take small first steps and as you gain confidence and hear your inner guidance more clearly, you will keep walking closer to enlightenment.


Remember that we love you and will always love you. Keep in contact with us and we guide you.

All Saints Transmission: Protect Your Food Sources

Saints Transmissions: Saint Jude



What’s Eating You?




ST: Dear Jude, I’m concerned about the American food industry, GMO foods, and the high price the environment and non-humans pay so that Americans can consume cheap food. How can we practice compassion in regard to food and each other? I know that I feel so passionate about food security and nutrition that I sometimes stomp on people’s feelings in regard to their choice of food or food stuff, as Michael Pollan phrases it.


Saint Jude: Well, food is the stuff of life and it’s the stuff of your soul. When the soul feels empty so does the body and so the person seeks out some substance to fill them up, quench their desires, and really do a lot of different things. But beyond the psychological comfort eating and food provides, we must move past immediate gratification and gaze at the bigger picture which is telling us that the current food system is literally destroying the planet. So you feel angry, rightfully so, but you also must know about the darker forces at work who are in charge of destroying the planet.


ST: You mean transnational corporations controlling our seed and food supplies?


SJ: Yes, I mean that, but not only that. What is the larger force at work here? Why is it allowed to continue promoting such damage and why do few people question these dark forces, much less why don’t more people know about the dark forces pulling the strings behind the scenes? You have heard all sorts of theories and analysis. You have heard that aliens have come to the planet to destroy it and you have heard of shadow governments. But all you need to know is that you can rise above the powers of dark forces by making different choices. You can choose to wake up from the trance, not watch television, not take pharmaceuticals that numb your mind and body, and you can choose to eat food that is grown close by you either locally or in your own backyard.


It’s not about economics or money. Anyone, I’m going to repeat that, anyone can eat inexpensive organically grown food. Gather with neighbors and tear up a parking lot in a suburban or intercity lot and grow a community and vegetables. Plant fruit and nut trees in your yard or grow tomatoes on your balcony or lettuce on a windowsill. I’ll repeat this isn’t about money or social class. It’s about food justice, but the powers-that-be (in the physical realm) aren’t going to provide food justice for you. That’s not in their best interests as far as they’re concerned. You must remember that heads of many corporations, especially the biggest ones live in a trance. They’re bottom line is a greedy one and they’ll play any game to keep the public and mass majority under the power. They’ll lie, cheat, and steal, especially your health and well-being because they still believe in the illusion of separation.


So you must do two things. Stay on your spiritual path promoting the tenets of Unity Consciousness and dissolve the illusion of separation. And two, you must grow your own food organically or with biodynamic practices or support those that grow food that way. Look around you and see what projects exists in your neighborhood or community. Look for locavore forums and online chat groups and join them. Attend civic meetings and go to farmers markets where you get to know your local farmers. If you can grow organic food in your yard then donate extra to food banks. If you’re on food stamps or use the food bank take advantage of programs that provide organic food to you. Don’t be afraid to ask for healthier food choices and don’t refrain from educating yourself about mass consumed foods in your country. Sign petitions, and write letters to protect food security. Spiritual activism exists too you know.


So that is your assignment for the week. Find out where your food comes from and the situations surrounding your food source. If you don’t like what you see, hear, or feel, then make small changes today and bigger changes tomorrow. You’re not alone. If what you learn causes you to feel outraged, you’re not alone. If you think no one cares about where food comes from, you’re not alone. Find a community of like-minded individuals and share your concerns. Help each other. Talk to each other, and share what you have with others. Us-saints believe that we can turn the food situation around and quickly, but you must act now.


Remember that we love you.


Blessings,

FranAll Saints Transmissions: Saints Francesco and Chiara of Assisi

Saints Transmissions: Saint Francesco and Saint Chiara of Assisi
Focus on Beauty & Enchantment Only

ST: I watched the movie “The Celestine Prophecy” in a meditative state and you came up in the movie.  Actually, Francesco and Chiara, you have come up many times for me in the past few days.  But I’m thinking that your message is for all Humanity and not just me.  After all, we are talking Unity Consciousness here, no?

Saints Francesco and Chiara: Focus on beauty and enchantment of the planet and you see the Face of God-Goddess.  You see the creator which creates from gentleness, compassion and love.  If you focus on negative and destructive things or situations you feed them.  You spoon nourishment into the mouths of negative entities and energies when you focus on them.  Is this what you want to nourish and give growth to in the world? Ask yourself also what you would like to see in the world.  Is it peace, love, prosperity and abundance?

We realize that the planet feels chaotic at the moment.  Storms come out of nowhere and wipe out illusions of the material world.  But here’s what they don’t tell you on the daily news—they don’t tell you about the protectiveness and feelings of peace that victims of hurricanes, tornadoes and other disasters experience.  The reporters don’t ask questions of the spiritual nature.  They just focus on the negative when in actuality there are no victims and there are no accidents.

ST: So are you telling us to detach from outcomes and our beliefs about certain situations?

F & C: Yes, we are telling you exactly that.  You must remember that Chiara and I walked away from the material world.  We denounced all of it, but found that in fact we still lived in this material world.  At first this disturbed us and we felt disillusioned.  I personally fell into deep despair until I realized that it is all about balance.  We asked ourselves how can we love God and ignore the gifts God bestows upon us. We misunderstood Jesus’ message about walking out into the desert without shoes or anything to burden us.  He wasn’t telling us to literally walk naked into the unknown, but to surrender our egos and not allow the material world to control us.  The heart and soul never reside in the material world, but the body needs our attention too.  So for centuries people have misunderstood our teachings.

 Now, you might ask, what are those teachings? And I would tell you that you can find the answer in certain Buddhist practices.   You don’t need to denounce anything or anyone or any practice that actually serves your highest good and potential.  But you must get in touch with your hearts because your hearts and souls lead you to a better experience on the earth.  You need your minds too, but for too long the minds have ruled the roost and look where that has brought humanity—to the brink of possible extinction.


ST:  I know you love all creatures so how do you feel about climate change which is human-caused? And how can we focus on only positive things when we also need to fight for the planet on a daily if not an hourly basis? We can’t let the transnational corporations destroy this planet through greed and commerce.  I think this is where many of us lose sight of our spiritual paths.  I’ve heard of spiritual warriors and spiritual activism so how do these work?

F & C: Oh, very good questions.  As you know, Chiara and I experienced our angry moments too.  No one wants to see the destruction of the beautiful earth when they walk a spiritual path or feel even slightly awakened.  But you can’t go through your life burning from anger either.  By focusing on beauty and enchantment of the natural world you empower the elementals and protective auras of the creatures and their habitat.  Every time you chant, meditate, sing, dance or find some way to enjoy your life on the planet that isn’t destructive in the bigger sense, you heal the planet.  You know that if you all lift your vibration by focusing on natural beauty, ugliness cannot co-exist with it.  High vibrations repel low ones, but if you stoop to anger, outrage, judgment, etc…you greatly lower your vibration and so guess what you experience?


Now, I know exactly what you’re thinking ---that if you don’t notice the evils in the world (evil actually doesn’t exist), that you’re not acting like a responsible adult.  But look at who you’re speaking to—do I remind you of a responsible adult? Remember I walked away from “adult responsibilities” to live simply close the earth and see the world through the eyes of a child so to speak.  Chiara did the same thing.  We all did in our community of friars and nuns.  Oh, yes, the responsible adult types laughed at us and scoffed at our simple ways.  Are you crazy? They asked.   Perhaps we were crazy, but compared to what?

And now humanity as a whole stands on the proverbial crossroads between ugliness and beauty.  And I’m telling you if your goal is to save the planet, then angry words in the socio-political arena aren’t going to take you to your goal.  Ranting and raving keeps you in the lion’s den and you can only see evil and if you can only see evil you will feel despair and hopelessness.  Your vibration will decrease to the point where you feel like you have landed in hell.  And you have.  But in every single moment, you can choose differently and arrive in heaven.  It’s always your choice.  I know what we choose and we hope you choose the high road too.

Remember that we love you.

Love and Blessings,


Francesco and Chiara

All Saints Transmissions: Follow Your Nose

Saints Transmission: Mary Magdalene (Magdala) and Saint Jude
Follow Your Nose

ST: I remember the old Fruitloops commercial from my childhood where the toucan told us to follow our nose because it always knows.  Lately though I've also had to follow my gut even when someone is sneaky, clever and charming, especially then.  Could you advise us on what this entails? How do we know we are following our gut or just caving into irrational fear?

Saint Jude & Mary Magdalene:  Yes, my dears, very important question.  How do you tell the difference between ego and soul? That's what it comes down to.  The ego never ever feels loving.  It tells you how great you are, but wants you to stroke it like a cat instead.  And just like a cat, it purrs at you.  "Tell me more about myself...Please..." But the ego can also rip you and anyone around you apart.

So what is the difference between discrimination (following the nose or the gut) and following the twisted path of your egos?  One will cause you to act more loving towards those around you, one will lift you up and you'll feel centered.  The other one leaves you feeling oppressed, disenchanted with life and nitpicky.  If something doesn't smell right, it's wrong for you.  So really pay attention to smells, how people smell, how situations and atmospheres feel.  Do you feel goosebumps or chills in any part of your body? Do your ears start ringing? Do you feel a low energy hitting or pulling on your solar plexus?  Do you feel a heaviness or a lightness?

Yes, these are a lot of things to keep track but you have the skills within you to do this.  So you're talking to someone and something doesn't feel right, then it isn't.  What's the first thing you feel, is it uplifted or down-lifted? Pay attention because there are millions of souls here to trick you, steal energy from you, and do whatever they have to do to keep you beneath them.  There are millions of souls who get themselves into a powerful position through soul criminal activity--soul sucking, playing games, manipulation and control.

These people might have prestigious or important jobs.  They might look together on the outside or they might look disheveled.  They're wracked with insecurities and use charm to hide their flaws.  They dress the part, talk the walk, and generally have you doubting your own instincts.  You might ask yourself how can someone who has a good job, a beautiful home and a good standing in the community act like a viper on the sly? And it happens.  You only have your nose and your gut to follow.  If the situation doesn't feel right, it isn't.  I repeat this phrase because I want you to memorize it and take it to heart.  So when you find yourself in a situation that smells wrong, you'll walk the other way.  That you'll trust your instincts that God-Goddess gave you.

The world is full of darkness, but also light.  Your role is to distinguish between the two and the lines drawn aren't obvious.  There is a tendency in your American society especially to judge a book by its cover.  If someone isn't well-dressed they are less trusted than someone in a suit or it could but rarely go the other way.  People are more likely to smile at you if you wear designer clothing and have you hair done on a regular basis then if you happen to be a simple person with a bad hair day.

Yet, watch your posture.  Practice poise no matter how you dress or what money you have in the bank.  Never measure your success as a human being by the money in your bank account and don't allow anyone else to measure your success from that either.  Dignity folks. 

So back to following your instincts, the toucan was right, the nose always knows.  Sounds like a cute rhyme but is factual.  Learn the difference between ego and soul/heart. You must meditate to get to this point because the ego is a trickster, an angel and a devil in disguise.  Get to know your inner voice.  Get to know God.  Then you'll know the difference so you can discriminate what is highest and best for you.  Only you can decide that.  No one can really advise you so you must follow your own nose and your own gut.

Remember that we love and bless you.

All Saints Transmissions: Saint Jude--Shaking it Up

All Saints Transmission: Saint Jude
Shaking it Up

ST: Dear Jude, I'm concerned about this upcoming solar eclipse (June 1) because I'm making  a major change on that day.  I know others are too and I wonder how this eclipse will affect our efforts.

Saint Jude: No worries, my dear, I keep reminding you to give up this bad habit of worrying. You're not alone of course, humanity is rife with worries and fears, mostly the fear of the unknown.  And all of this stems from control issues.  You can't control or manipulate fate nor can you control the direction of the planets or eclipses.  You can endure them and even thrive from their effects, if you stop worrying.

What have I told you about negative thinking? I would include superstition along with that. Now what good is it for you to take every preconcievable caution? I know you fear the worst and I'm telling you to stop all of this.  Plenty of you, thousands of you will be making huge changes on June 1, June 15 and July 3 and 4.  The eclipse is shaking things up and releasing you from complacency.  Will it be easy to make changes on those days? No, and that's is because you will try to realign the planets with your thoughts that just go around in circles.

But what's worse negative thoughts or the actual eclipse? What do we now know about the power of thoughts and feelings? Plenty of successful events and relationships began on an eclipse.  I'm not saying that there won't be earth-shaking events on those days I mentioned.  But I will tell you that the last set of eclipses from 6 months ago is culminating at this time.  So the events that you experience were 6 months or more in the making.  You have zero control over them and must take the most positive and loving route available to you at this time.  You can also seek advice from experts, but you can't control others.

You might feel exhausted the next day but you're also going to feel relief.  Just know one thing, everything will turn out the way it was meant to turn out.  No need for guilt or shame over events that might occur, but mostly likely won't.  Just stay alert to the best of your ability, don't take any unnecessary risks and know that despite what the planets do, you will still find your happiness through the changes you make now. 

Know this also that you are not alone.  Practice meditation, yoga or what will keep you grounded and centered.  Remember to breathe and to think positive.  May your actions be positive and don't entertain those worries that dance around in your head.  That is just the control freak in each of you who believe that you can micromanage your life.  That's an illusion.  In the end only God decides your fate.  You simply work with the cards given to you.

Remember we love you and bless  you.

Blessings,

Dark Night of the Soul & Emergence
Into the Light

ST: Dearest Jude today we spoke about the dark night of the soul that I just emerged.  You mentioned that there are readers of this blog who have just emerged from this dark tunnel and embrace the light and so will you elaborate?

Saint Jude: My dear, of course I will elaborate on this important topic.  Some of you reading this blog post are either in the tunnel currently or you just passed another initiation--just in time for graduation season.  And speaking of graduation, you need to celebrate this achievement, if not with friends, then at least in the embrace of the natural world and with your Spirit Mothers and Fathers.  Know this, the Angels celebrate with you.  The saints, buddhas, masters of all kinds, light beings, all of them, celebrate with you.

Those of you still probing the darkness, it's time to surrender.  Allow others to pray for your safety and well-being. Don't be afraid to seek help, even counseling if you need it.  This is a time for humility, not arrogance and false pride.  The tunnel feels wicked, it's darkness never-ending it seems, but you must keep walking, stumbling, crawling or whatever it takes, you must move forward to you see that faint ray of light, even a pinhole of light.

As a saint, God has tested me many times.  All saints know this darkness and the temptations that lie within.  There's the temptation of giving up and acting like a victim (which you're not).  There's the temptation of acting spiteful towards others and calling upon the souls of enemies (which are helpful adversaries in disguise).  There are temptations to judge and blame others, to act superior to others, to divide the world into us verses them.  And I say refrain from all of the above.  There is the temptation to fight back viciously instead of with dignity. 

You must know and I will tell you that acting out of fear will only keep you stuck in the tunnel and the dark night of the soul longer.  Only you prolong your agony and suffering.  If you choose to think fearful and limiting thoughts then the Universe can only respond in kind.  If you choose to look in the mirror and not see what stares you in the face, then you lose sight of reality.  If you judge and blame yourself or others then you miss the point of Unity Consciousness.  So ask yourself if you can get used to navigating darkness or if you now have the courage to take that leap of faith, whatever that entails.

Some of you have been dreaming about other places you wish to live, but you don't take any steps to get there.  Some of you dream of quitting your secure job, selling your home, divorcing your spouse (even with a loving relationship), and you have an itch to do something different and to reinvent yourself.  Now is a good time to move in that direction.  Those dreams aren't accidental but truly and lovingly meaningful.  Those dreams come from the deepest part of your soul and now is the time to manifest them.

So if you find yourself stumbling, call on us for guidance.  If you don't see any way out of your current situation whatever it is, pray to us.  Suffering is an illusion.  Why bask in illusions when paradise waits at your feet.  And all you need to do is change your mind from negative to positive.

Remember we love you.

Blessings,

Saints Transmissions: Saint Jude & Saint Mary Magdalene

Saints Transmissions: Jude and Magdala
The Power of Love

ST: I keep hearing about the power of love, that if I feel enough love and gratitude I can manifest anything.  We've discussed this topic before, but now I'm at a crucial juncture in my life, as others are, and I need reassurance.  What can you tell me on this topic?

Saints Jude and Magdala: You came to the right place and the right people to advise you on this topic.  We knew one of the greatest lovers of all time, Magdala knew him more intimately than I.  Yeshua was all about love and gratitude.  We all were. This was our greatest teaching.  We understand too how hard it is to love in a world filled with fear, loathing, and hatred.  We know what it's like to walk into a dark space and light it with a single candle flame.  Yet, this is what we ask of you lovers and fools for love, also known as light workers.

You will lose faith from time to time.  You will see religions used to benefit some and manipulate others.  You will see mind games and all sorts of nonsense, which you shall play no part.  Walk away from it.  Don't spend your time arguing with fear, and don't spend your time convincing others that they are living their lives from fear.  Instead, look in the mirror and see where your heart is, and where it lies, and where it lies to you.  Are you coming from a place of love or fear? You know you are quite capable of both, so you must tune into your heart and see what lives in it.

Love is sometimes easy.  Some people, especially the kind and gentle ones are easy to love.  The ones who hurt the most, the deeply wounded, the ones that lash out in hostility or from food allergies and pollution, pose many challenges to experiencing love.  Yet, my light worker friends, you possess enough love in your hearts even for those you consider enemies.  And remember the mirror trick or trick of mirrors? What you perceive outside of yourself, is exactly what you are projecting.  There is only one of us here in the room, and it is YOU. So if you don't like what you sense in the world, then change the tune of the songs you are singing.

Many of you see world events for illusions.  I'll let you in on a secret, they are illusions.  I'm not saying that the people who experience these illusions don't feel them as real.  No, I'm not saying that at all, but deep in their subconscious minds, they know that they experience illusions.  Fear and darkness are illusions.  So-called evil is illusion.  Only love is real.  Yes, you have heard this before, but I like to repeat it like a mantra.  How else will you my human friends learn that only love is real.  You believe it now when I tell you.  You nod your heads, and say, "Yes, that's right, Jude.." But then you turn on the radio and listen to the negative reports, one after the other, like a bad string of pearls.  Then this belief that only love is real crumbles at your feet.

So why do you expose yourself to negative illusions? Why do you believe that they are real and that you need to prepare for your role as a fighter or a warrior versed in dualism? Oh, but you do.  Don't laugh or scoff at me as I tell you the truth.  Everytime you hear of an event you feel is unjust, you have an impulse to grab a sign and hit the streets.  "Yeah, I'll show those corporate...fill in the blank..." or whatever political party is on your hate agenda.  Then you too are caught in the illusion like a fish in the net.

You wonder how you can play a better role in the world.  After you meditate and do things you love, it's easier to love the world.  So start there.  Start right there with the things you love doing.  Ask yourself why you don't do more things that you love.  Is it some duty to the world, some responsibility to do things you despise? And maybe there are things you despise but you have to do them anyway.  Still can't you find something to love about those things? There is something to love in every event, every situation, every person, every being, etc...There are things to love about yourselves, lots of things we can see.

So yes, the Power of Love is real.  It can move mountains.  It can heal oceans. It can heal you, it can heal us, and it can build community where everyone prospers as it should be.  But to get there, you must focus on love and gratitude.  When you find yourself focusing on negative things, shift your consciousness.  You Can Do This.

Remember that we love you.

Blessings,

All Saints

Saints Tranmissions: Saint Jude--Show us the Light Switch

Saint Jude: Show us the Light Switch
Get us out of the tunnel of arrogance

ST: With all the planets in the sign of Aries, I've noticed more arrogance than usual coming from even usually generous and compassionate people.  I've had to watch my own behavior like a hawk.  And what I've seen especially with Uranus moving into Aries is a huge rebellion away from the Aquarian collective towards the childish and selfish Aries (dark side of Aries).  I have heard this with topics discussed on radio shows, and in my normal everyday relating to others. How do we move past this arrogance and fake independence in a time when collectives are so desperately needed to heal the planet?

Saint Jude: You put your finger right on the pulse, planets transiting in Aries.  Now with planets finally moving into Taurus (later this month), you will see a selfish robustness replaced with stubborness and the pursuit of easy pleasures.  You'll also see more women asserting themselves, but many pursue pleasures too and don't be fooled by their activism when it is focused on improving their own lot in life, financially and otherwise.  You'll also see a lot of articles and hear radio shows centered on the pleasures of sex and relationships.  But this for the most part is banal and not healthy for the planet.  It's going to feel like women shoppers at a meat market later this month so watch out.  Of course more evolved women won't be participating in this nonsense, or more evolved men.

Now you ask how does humanity move past its self-interests? Good question and one that the non-humans ask on a regular basis.  When will humans finally get this idea of  interdependence? If you're even a little awake, and you most likely are if you're reading this message, then practice love, gratitude, and compassion.  When you make small or large decisions, choose love, not fear.  How do you know the difference? Love has a higher vibration and fear feels like someone hit you in the gut, or it feels like you're carrying rocks around in your body.  I know you know the difference by now.

But as I've mentioned earlier some of you love cheap drama.  It's as if you can't get enough from novels and movies or the evening news.  Oh, no, you have to attract cheap drama into your life, that's right you attract it.  You say you don't want all the drama, but you actually do, otherwise, it would not come your way.  You wouldn't attract others who also enjoy cheap drama.  This doesn't imply by any means that there isn't real suffering in the world, because of course there is.  The earth is cleansing and purifying at the moment creating some real drama, but that doesn't mean humanity can shirk responsibility.  You are responsible for your part, large or small.  It's not just the rich corporations that harm the earth.  Each of you make choices, and many opportunities to do the right thing are staring you in the face.

But what happens is that you get caught up in your fear and limitations.  You have no faith.  you believe that angels, even Arcangels and holy saints are a bunch of wimps who can't take on darkness and win.  Oh, but you are so wrong to believe this.  That's not to say that we don't need your help or that we don't want it.  We need your cooperation if you want to see the earth survive this chaos and arrogance.  You must start to think outside of yourself. Look around with your eyes as far as you can see, and open your ears and heart.  Pay attention to those around you.  Is there someone you can help right now? Can you seek help for yourself right now to improve your circumstances or are you just going to throw in the towel?

Do you pray to angels and God for miracles then when the miracles show up, dismiss them because you fear them? The miracles won't show up the way you envision them exactly.  They will show up quickly in some cases and catch you off guard, but you must step back and make and take a bigger view of the situation.  You pray for a partner and one shows up, but he or she is not exactly what you had in mind.  But this person could be the highest and best partner for you regardless.  Saints and Angels know what's best for you.

So this week watch your ego.  Pay attention to when you sink into a dark place and ask to be uplifted out of that place.  Pray for miracles and express gratitude when your prayer is answered.  Try your best not to get caught up in the arrogance of the world.  Practice love, graditude and compassion, and that includes yourself. When you judge yourself this is not practicing compassion.  You can enjoy your time on the earth too, it's not all work and sacrifice.  But remember that all the good that comes to you came to you through the hands of many creatures.  Even that bowl of cereal took microbes, earthworms, bees, insects, soil, elementals, farm workers etc... to produce.  You didn't just buy it at the store, it came to you from many sources.

We love you and support you on your quest to enlightenment. We will get there.

Blessings,

Saint Jude
