So this took a bit of practice on my part. I would sit and meditate on simply being happy, no reason needed.  Again and again, my mind would search for a reason. I’m happy because I feel healthy. I am happy to live in this home. I am happy to have lost some weight.  On and on it would go.

But what happens when we reach a higher consciousness, when we are progressing from the 3rd dimension into the 4th (which is eternal), is that we start to experience being ‘happy for no reason.’

I can now go through the day without feeling that pressure to achieve, to do, to accomplish.  And yet things get done and accomplished.

SG keeps telling us to allow soul, not to surrender to the soul, as that word surrender has some negative vibrations to it because of its misuse over the years.

The more we embrace and allow the soul, the easier our lives become. We are then coming from soul and not ego.

Well, thank God for Netflix.  I recently finished watching the entire series from start to finish. I saw who all the characters were, how they developed and how they related to each other.

And quite honestly, anything with Michael Kitchen (Foyle) in it is just fine by me.

But perhaps this was just a bit too compulsive of me–watching episode after episode, anxiously awaiting the 2 days it takes for Netflix to send the next installment. Not having a life until it arrived.

It reminds me of my family photo albums from growing up. My dad was the family photographer. He had one of those great old cameras with bellows that opened up the camera that seemed quite exotic to me.

One year when my brother Mike was about 9, he had a birthday party with all his 9-year-old buddies at our house. Shot after shot in the album is of young boys grinning or stretching their faces into all sorts of shapes for the camera. The entire house behind them looked like a hurricane had hit it. It must have been hellish for both my parents. The very last photo is one of my father lying prone on the dining room floor, arms outstretched, mouth agape.

Underneath the photo he had written: “Daddy helped with the party, too.”

So I feel like lying on the floor, saying: “I survived.” Yet,  unlike my father,  I would like the party to go on.

There’s a feeling of satisfaction but also sadness that there are no more episodes limping their way to me through the postal system.

However, they have brought it back this year. Hurray!  I saw several episodes recently and watched Christopher Foyle (now post-war and trying hard to be retired but of course being brought back in to solve murders nonetheless) as he embarked for the United States. Will he get caught up in murders there, too? Of course.  Will he be the best one to solve them?  Silly question.

I was having some problems getting unstuck from relationship issues, old things that just kept cropping up no matter what I did.  These were issues that were in my DNA, the DNA I had been born with.

I had been feeling sluggish and then caught a nasty cold. But I figure that when I get sick, it means my soul wants me to slow down and do some processing.  “Stop running around and being so busy!”

Lying around the house sniffling wasn’t making me much better.

So I decided I needed a reading from Saint Germain and got one on Thursday. He told me exactly how to deal with 3 different very important relationships from this life and erase the DNA for good.

“Get on a magic carpet and fly to the Akashic Records. This is a big beautiful library. See your soul coming down the steps to greet you. It will show you the book where the records are kept for each of these important relationships. Take each relationship separately, see the lifetimes in which these agreements first took place and see the truth of them. This can clear the DNA forever.”

So I went out into the backyard and sat on the picnic table under the trees. I wasn’t quite sure I would get any information but I did right away.  I focused on the individual in question. My journey took only 10 minutes and completely cleared a problem I have had my entire life.  The second one was also short and quite graphically showed me a pattern of mine that was self-defeating.

The third one I left for the next day, as I knew it would take longer and was major. Luckily, the weather was just as nice and I was not interrupted by anything except the birds singing. That one was intense and I needed to connect with several lifetimes to get the whole picture.

Since I did these journeys, a mere few days ago, I have felt a tremendous sense of peace, empowerment and freedom. All my body problems have disappeared.

And this only took up an hour of my time, total.

So if you’re stuck and wondering how to get unstuck, follow SG’s advice,  get on the magic carpet and fly…………….

But I needed to find out who he is. So………..research on the internet!

It seems he lived a long time, was le conte de Saint Germain and an alchemist, could turn pebbles into precious metals with which he loved to adorn himself.  He was around a long time and yet never looked more than 40 (Voltaire called him ‘the man who doesn’t age’).  He could possibly have lived hundreds of years. It seems he drank an elixir that caused the not-aging.

Some years ago in a reading he was telling me the difference between him and Merlin.  “I was born, I did have a mommy, I had karma with Thomas Jefferson, I did die.”  So…he became an ascended master after he left his body.  On the other hand, what do we know of Merlin? Was he ever born?  Did he die? We don’t know, because, as SG said,  Merlin is ‘eternal in form.’

A few years ago we were all going through a phase that SG also had experienced while still in his body. He said he raged for 5 years and destroyed everything he had ever created. All those gems! I told his channel Maxine after the reading that I knew why he did that: he had discovered on his own spiritual journey that none of it had any value!

Saint Germain supposedly is the architect of the Aquarian Age we are coming into. I have heard that he is the lord of the 7th Ray, at least I think it’s the 7th.

The I Am Foundation is located in the Loop in downtown Chicago. This was created around the 1930’s and a few years ago a friend and I made a trek there. We were not allowed into the inner sanctum but hung out in the library for a time and bought some books, The I Am Discourses, which I recommend if you are at all spiritually-inclined. Published by The Saint Germain Press in Schaumburg, IL.

If SG fascinates you, there are many websites devoted to him.  All sorts of info, who knows if it’s all true. But interesting, nonetheless. You can even see some drawings of what he looked (looks) like.

If he’s the architect of the New Age we’re entering, you may want to learn more about him.

So what do we do when the abundance doesn’t seem to be coming our way just yet? I keep asking my Soul for money miracles and they are arriving in funny ways.

On Tuesday morning my friend Kiki (performance artist with a wonderful voice) was planning to come to my place to make a recording of the fairy tale book I have put together with another friend. The Marvelous Dog and The Wonderful Cat. But that morning I woke up with a stiff neck, so went off to the chiropractor. It pushed back the recording time to past noon.

When Kiki came to record, all the learning I had done at the Apple Store on how to use Garageband fled from my head and we only managed to squeak out 2 chapters. It was one of those ‘processing days’ for me and I was off on some other planet. Then Kiki’s throat started acting up and we couldn’t continue.

So…..when things aren’t working……go shopping!

I had received a coupon for a free pair of pearl earrings from a jewelry store, but hadn’t picked them up, as I already had a pair. But Kiki didn’t. So off we went to the mall.

We got the earrings then decided to use another coupon I had for Banana Republic. But because it was Tuesday, when this store has special discounts, we got even more surprises.

We found some things we liked then went to check out. I had forgotten a number of coupons that Banana Republic had sent me which were stuffed in my purse.  I got those out and even though some were expired, the manager overrode the expiration. The clerk started deducting all the coupons and special discounts.

All in all, I bought 2 gorgeous silk blouses, normally sold for $80 each (on sale for $54) for $4 each! And Kiki got a lovely summer T-shirt for 7 bucks!

How’s that for abundance?  Thank you, Soul.

I got a good lesson on this on Saturday.  I had been feeling wobbly the past week or so, wondering whether I was even in my body. I was signed up for a reading with SG for Saturday but called on Friday and said there was no way I could possibly drive there, as I was so out of it. I was encouraged to come anyway and that SG and Maxine would fix me up.

Maxine had a machine there that can show people their auras, chakras and soul imprints. I’m not sure whether it’s a Kirlian process or not. I put my hand on the contraption and my aura, chakras and soul imprints were visible on Maxine’s laptop. But they were all purple!

Now in spiritual circles, I had heard that this was good, that having one’s aura be violet or purple meant you were vibrating pretty darn high. That could be true but I learned that that is not the way of a grounded ascended being.  We need to be here and fully functioning in the body, which I wasn’t.

So SG did a balancing on me and within a few minutes I was energetic, centered and totally here. Then I put my hand on the machine again and the colors emanating through me were brilliant. Yellows, greens, blues, purples, reds, the whole shebang.

SG then told me that what people think ascension is, is not what it is.  It is a big deal and yet it’s only one small piece of what we are doing.  So I have graduated from 1st Grade and am now in 2nd. Ascension has been done before on Earth, many, many times.  This is nothing new.  Planet Earth and 3D human consciousness have evolved many times and will continue to.

He said that had he told me what I would be going through in my ascension process, I would not have agreed to do it. This has been intense!   That’s why Jesus said that to do this process, one must be innocent as a child, naive. I have ascended bit by bit, as to do it all in one big whoosh would have been way too much for me.

I encourage people to sign up for Maxine’s membership program. SG does a reading for the energies of each month, along with a guided meditation. You can listen to these anytime you like, whether on your computer or downloaded onto an iPod. Go here to learn more.

So there isn’t a lack of wealth, there’s plenty to go around. It’s just that the systems in place have controlled the distribution and sharing of the wealth. This is what Saint Germain says is changing now with the whole economic system crisis. We are going to a much more equitable system. Don’t ask me what that is, though, as I don’t understand finance at all.

So every day, in order to not get sucked into the poverty mentality that’s in the mass consciousness, I meditate on all the abundance of the universe being in my life.  Whatever I need is there when I need or want it.

So what we’re going through is a death of the old system, which was never fair to everyone anyway.  This is more than an economic issue.  It’s a freedom issue. It’s a whole consciousness change.

In our ascension process from the 3rd to 4th dimension, we have to let go of the rules and beliefs of the 3rd.  And one of those beliefs is that there’s not enough to go around for everyone. Simply not true.  It’s just being reorganized.

In the 4th dimension, we are in our eternal soul. There is no lack, no fear, no us against them. We have everything we need when we want it. Nice, huh?

To learn more about this consciousness, please read Karen Bishop’s website, Emerging Earth Angels. She has some wonderful books on this whole process. And she has helped to keep me sane.

But once I started on my healing path (healing me and nobody else), I recognized the importance of support.  I sought out and found the healing practitioners that were right for me and became much more a part of a healing community.  Some of these people were short-term in my life, they were perfect for what I needed at the time, but then it was time for us both to move on. There are others with whom I interact to this day.  They have become good friends.

How did I know with whom to stay?  What told me one healing or healer was enough and it was time for me to go on to the next? Usually it was a gut feeling, something hard to pin down or describe. But I knew there was truth to it.  My intuition.

I once heard a great description of intuition: “Intuition is God talking to us between our thoughts.” And if we could just shut up that mind a bit more, we could get even more information.

People who trust their intuition but cannot explain it logically are frequently dismissed or ridiculed. This happened to me. But thanks to my healers and my own soul, I got to the point where I trusted my intuition even more than the logic of my mind.

So if you are starting your healing process, please don’t shut yourself off and try to do it alone. Support is essential. And listen to your hunches, your inner voice.  It’s the voice of your soul.

One of those is that our bodies are changing and we will get to a place where we simply don’t age.  We are in a huge evolutionary time, we are ascending into the 4th dimension, which is the dimension of the soul. The rules of the 4th dimension are different from the 3rd. There is no polarity, no fighting, no-us-against-them, no aging and no dying. How long would you like to stay here in a healthy body that never ages and never dies?

We are going into Co-Creation, which you will be hearing a lot more of. Barbara Marx Hubbard, Andrew Cohen and other visionaries have been talking about it.  We are coming into a place of No Victim, No Blaming, No Self-Hatred and total personal empowerment, recognizing that we are (and have always been) co-creators of this experience. We are not at the mercy of some unseen force. We are the unseen force.

Having done past-life work, I believe in reincarnation.  But I realized some time ago that it bored me. Birth, life, death, another birth, another life, another death. Been there, done that. So when SG started talking about becoming eternal in form, I was excited. Ooohhh, something different!

Here’s what he says is happening: we all have a form underneath these bodies of ours.  We always have had this form, in whatever life we’ve been in. Holograms, which are 4th dimensional, are coming in one by one to support the various organs in this form. I have a hologram which is in the process of forming to support my heart. Once that’s done, another hologram will come in to support another of my organs, and so forth.

After all organs in my body have a hologram supporting them, the form I will be in will be a series of holograms. And as holograms are 4th dimensional, they don’t follow any rules of the 3rd dimension. So: no aging, no dying, etc.  We will be eternal in form.  Our old 3rd dimensional bodies will fall off but it’s all energetic. It won’t crack and fall on the ground. Saint Germain says we’ll wake up one day and just see ourselves differently.  We can also youthen if we like.

I realize that this kind of information is considered by many to be ‘out there.’ It takes a bit of digesting, I know. But don’t dismiss it out of hand. Our own souls are engineering this whole shift and the more we just let it happen and not allow the mind to interfere, the more fun the process.  I personally am looking forward to be 31 again!
