Invasion of Planet Earth
by Jason Dunlap

 

This is not intended to be fearful news. Over the last four years, I have reported on the hundreds of UFO sightings, sightings of ETs, strange animals, conversations with ETs and other spiritual entities, Native American prophesy, Biblical prophesy, secret government activities, discoveries of ancient civilizations including Atlantis, and Lemuria, as well as outrageously bizarre tales of sudden inter-dimensional shifts, encounters with fairies and devas and so on and so on. When you study what evidence there is, and compare the stories with the knowledgeable, and convincing testimony of experts in the fields of science and government, you have to admit that it often sounds like an entertaining hobby, perpetrated by a lonely, electronic engineers who finally blew too many fuses. Well, I've got news for you. I'm not lonely, I don't have time for frivolous hobbies, I'm not stupid, and it is obvious to me that if any real evidence exists, it is deliberately hidden from the questioning minds of the average citizen. Things, completely hidden from our awareness, are happening that are destined to change life as we know it, and until clandestine plans, of governments, ETs, and spiritual beings are executed, few us will know anything, for sure. At some point, even though you are not sure, you are going to have to make a decision which will prepare you for what, you BELIEVE, is going to happen. If you wait, until you know for sure, you will not take effective action and you will be among the herd of cattle being led to do the bidding of an unknown agenda. I know this is true because I, and most of you, are already a part of a herd, fulfilling the agenda of the power elite. I don't think it is time, to make all those decisions, just yet. Things are starting to become more and more apparent, however. And I, at least, am getting to the point where I can figure out what I must do. I hope I'm helping you do the same thing.

Look at what has been happening over the last few years. You DO look at it, so you must have seen it. It is on TV, every night, in a thousand different ways. Are you satisfied with programming on TV? No. Does the news cover and emphasize what you are most interested in? No. Do the polls reflect what viewers really want to focus on? YES! Yes, they do, but those who analyze and report on those polls to TV executives, and politicians jump to all the wrong conclusions. Did you notice that after the Olympics of 1990 or maybe it was before that, that the commercial breaks have gotten longer and longer? They used to be 2 1/2 minutes and now some commercial breaks are over 5 minutes! Did the polls show that people wanted longer commercials? No. From the polls they learned you would put up with longer commercials. Have you noticed, that ever since the Simpson trial, that most of the news is about the latest court case, legal scandals, court oriented crime dramas? Some idiots decided that the public was more interested in the judicial system than anything else. They've flooded the media with court drama. They take a poll to see if anybody is watching (the only thing on TV) and jump to the conclusion everybody wants more of it. We don't know what's going on in Bosnia, anymore. We don't learn about the plans to adopt a uniform world currency, or what is really being done about the destruction of the rain forests. This is all considered fringe information-reactionary, and nothing the average citizen should be involved in. Most of the real important stuff that is going on, is reported by unreliable, radical, malcontents....or so we are made to believe.

The truth is that those in control of the media are only interested in keeping the general population distracted from what is really going on. As ridiculous as it may sound, our world has been invaded by aliens, beings who have their own personal agendas and many, who have little or no interest in the highest good of humanity. For some of the invaders, humanity is just incidental to their real mission. Few of us can even understand those agendas, and if you think our political leaders, or our military, or elitist, kings, dictators, and industrialist know what is really going on, you better think again. Most of the people we revere, respect, and consider experts are no different than you and I. We're talking about "Aztec priests and tribal leaders" convincing you, that they are much more capable than you, at dealing with the "Spaniards", just before they are conquered. The worst part of it, is that they believe they know more about it, too. The secret government thinks they know what they are doing. The president thinks he knows what he's doing, and the power elite believe they are manipulating the whole thing and are the only ones that know what they are doing, and all of them are ready and willing to kill you if you try to get in their way. They even believe they would do it for the good of humanity. Advanced, alien civilizations are playing us like a fiddle, and we can't do anything about it, because we don't know enough..... YET.

The paradigm is shifting, however. Every day there is more and more new information being revealed, and more and more of it is reaching the general public. It has become obvious to me, that our government has been working with aliens for decades and so have other countries. There are not just one alien civilization, either. Some of the other civilizations are in competition and/or opposition to the other. Over the decades, aliens have become intimately involved in the planetary affairs, and no doubt have infiltrated, both openly and secretly our most secret organizations, and power base. There are aliens living among us, completely unnoticed, acting as if they are just regular citizens with jobs. We've already been invaded, but this is not necessarily bad or fearful news. I accept that there good guys and bad guys, and I believe the good guys have invaded, too. I believe, (I have no real proof, yet), unlike the Aztec's, the "Spaniards" are being interfered with by the "good guys". The good guys aren't going to let them blunder as they please, but the good guys also know that the "Aztec's" can't go unnoticed anymore. The question is, "What are we going to do about them.

What to do about Earth? We certainly aren't sure. We don't even know what our options are! We've been discovered. We are a low tech, primitive society by Galactic Federation standards. We are in possession of a beautiful planet with vast resources that are not being used to their full potential and the humans are making the living environment worse, every day. What do you do about something like that? You can't just turn it over to the Reptilians who would exterminate the humans and mine it for gold. This must be a big controversy among the aliens. Like anything else there extremes. One bunch want to completely isolate us from the rest of the galaxy, allowing us to evolve as we will and have total Free Will, and the other wants to land, present themselves, and actively get involved in helping us make the transition from a primitive society to an acceptable, Federation Delegate. Something in-between is likely to happen.

If we had it to do all over again, I don't think we would allow Cortez and his men to blunder Mexico. The U.N. would send in a bunch of anthropologist to discreetly infiltrate the Aztec society and study the matter. Then we'd send in technical people, medical people and sociologist to kinda bring the Aztec's up to speed. It wouldn't be long until "aliens" would be intimately involved in the affairs of the Aztecs and the average Aztec farmer would still think their King had everything under control. After awhile, the U.N. would move in, start loaning them money, and the power elite of the world would map out an agenda, designed to bring the Aztec Nation into the economic and political mechanisms of The World. This would not be as bad as being blundered by Cortez, but the result would be about the same. You see, if we did it our way, it wouldn't be a great plan. We do things like the "bad guys", because we are stupid. In order to avoid this humanity must be informed about what is happening.

UFO cover ups are becoming increasingly more difficult because they are more frequent, bolder, and the average person has better resources to gather evidence. Angels and benevolent beings, both extraterrestrial and other dimensional are making appearances, and giving valuable understanding and information to more people. Secret government activities are being exposed by leaks from "inside". Secrets, hidden for decades, even millennia, are surfacing from the most unlikely places. The forces that intend to dominate and control this planet are only able to do so by keeping us ignorant, and their plans secret. The forces of the Light, do not need to come down here and attack the dark forces head on. The forces of light intend to remove our veils of forgetfulness, reveal the secret plans of the manipulators, and give us back our personal, co-creative power. As we become more enlightened, we will know that benevolent forces are waiting to help, knowing we don't need it, but that it could make things a little easier.

It doesn't take a galactic anthropologist to figure out, that if humans are left completely to their own devices, things will get much worse before they get better. In order to reduce the inevitable collapse of our civilization and the ensuing pain and suffering, some form of intervention must take place. I believe it has been taking place for quite some time. Invaders from both sides have been infiltrating our societies, subtly passing on new technology, enlightening us and getting us over many of our primitive superstitions. They are bringing us to a point where we can handle being a part of a vast, galactic society, that we are not even aware of. It won't be long before the average citizen knows enough to be able to handle "the whole story". When the ships begin landing on our shores, it will be quite disruptive to our daily routines and the period of adjustment could be quite chaotic. Many people will think we should have been left alone and they will believe we have been sold out by our leaders. Others will think we should have been told a long time ago and that we should have had more say about it. They, too will believe we have been sold out by our leaders. The worst part of it is that humans tend to fight over stuff like that.

There is mounting evidence to support the notion we have reached the point where contact is necessary. Do not forget, that even though UFO sightings are increasing, there is also spiritual, or other dimensional civilizations that are involved in this. Sightings of Angels, spirit channeling, visitations, visions, and manner of such things are happening, too. There are good guys and bad guys in that bunch, too. The UFO stories that follow, point to the fact that every day, evidence is mounting that suggests something very important is about to happen.

From: skywatch_ok@msn.com Date: Fri, 27 Mar 1998 14:20:50 -0800 (PST) Subject: MINGGUAN MALAYSIA Sighting report

Notes: Thanks for the Malaysian UFO report. (This is report I translated from local news MINGGUAN, MALAYSIA ,Mar. 15th.

A group of students at TAMAN ORKID,SIMPANG EMPAT admit they saw an object like saucer, known as a UFO, nearby their house park last night. According to those who saw it, they saw, two objects the size of two cars. It hovered for a few minutes and focused beams of lights on the students. According to the students, the objects had four wings that produced lights from it and another light under it. MOHD FIRDAUS RASHID, AGED 12, said that the saucers seemed to want to land near a field. "Suddenly the objects appeared overhead before it went up and was lost in the sky. The saucers beamed lights at us a few times and then shut them off before they flew away." he told the reporter. According to them, he and 6 of his friends were playing when the sighting happened following magrib prayer, nearby the mosque. His friend, MOHD NAZRIN ROZALI, 11, said the objects produced sound like an aeroplane but not to noisy and the colour was nearly gray. "The saucer didn't rotate and we saw four wings and a light beam over the field", he said. According to him there was no vibration when the objects was there but they could feel the wind coming from the objects. Another student IHSAN IBRAHIM 12, said they thought the objects were stars when they arrived to the place, and they wave their hands to the objects, even though they felt afraid. UFO ROUNDUP Volume 3, Number 12, March 22, 1998 Editor: Joseph Trainor UFOs PROWL NIGHT SKIES OVER DEVON Two UFO incidents were reported recently in Devon, in the southwestern corner of the United Kingdom. On Monday, March 9, 1998, three people--M. Perst, D. Matthews and Mrs. J. York--were driving on motorway (highway) M5, heading for Exeter, a city 60 miles (100 kilometers) northwest of Plymouth. As they reached a point 39 miles from Exeter, Matthews "spotted what appeared to be a star in the south at a height (altitude) of almost 30,000 feet (9,090 meters)." Matthews alerted his companions, and they watched as the object "began to maneuver and descended about 3,000 feet and then disappeared in an array of bright white lights and a red light in the center, the total seven." As the trio watched, the UFO "descended from a height estimated at 25,000 feet (7,575 meters) to a height of 5,000 feet (1,515 meters) within a couple of seconds and executed a vertical left maneuver." At the lower altitude, the trio were able to get a better look at the object. They described "the shape of the object as triangular...The craft deployed three very bright white lights and in the center there appeared to be a large" circle of pulsating red light. The UFO then released "a small yellow or orange glowing ball that dropped from the reddish area of the craft. The gleaming ball of light shot off at high speed towards the south and was instantly followed by the triangular-shaped craft." On Sunday, March 15, 1998. at around 6 p.m., UFOs were reported from Yealmpton, Devon to the city of Plymouth, 160 miles (256 kilometers) southwest of London. LARGE V-SHAPED UFO FLIES OVER NARCOOSSEE, FLORIDA On Tuesday, March 17, 1998, Channel 9, an ABC affiliated TV station in Orlando reported that a large UFO "shaped like an L," i.e. a broad V or boomerang shape, "with bright white lights" had flown over the small town of Narcoossee, Florida. Located on the shores of East Lake Tohopekaliga, on Florida Highway 15, Narcoossee is about 20 miles (32 kilometers) southeast of Orlando. According to McEllis Winterfield, "many people" witnessed "the UFO seen in the shape of an L," and "one lady lost 11 chickens to unknown causes-- they just died on the spot--as the UFO flew over her house." (Many thanks to Steve Wilson Sr. for forwarding this report.) DIAMOND-SHAPED UFO SEEN IN SOUTH CAROLINA On Tuesday evening, March 10, 1998, Patricia B. and her two daughters, aged 17 and 11, were driving south on Interstate Highway 26 in South Carolina, heading to Florida for a vacation. As they approached Columbia (population 98,052), the state capital, the family spotted a UFO. They were traveling at about 65 miles per hour on I-26, just past the Broad River Road exit, north of Dutch Square Mall. "It seemed to be hovering over the highway," Patricia reported, "I got a very good look at it from underneath. It was rectangular, almost a diamond shape, with unusually bright lights on the bottom and more lights on the top...The lights shining up seemed equal to those shining below, and there were at least 12 or 13" lights. "When we first saw the object, it appeared to be a stationary light about 20 degrees above the horizon, about the size of a light on a radio tower. As we drove closer, we went directly under it...Directly overhead it was as big as a basketball held at arm's length." She estimated that she and her daughters had the UFO in view for "five minutes."

Times. The Contact Has Begun by Phillip H. Krapf Until he had the experience he recounts in his book, he was a very skeptical man who didn't believe in UFOs, abduction stories, or anything of the kind. This is the true story of his encounter with alien beings. "Up to now, I have ignored stories about UFOs because I knew in my heart that the information could not be correct. I believed that beings advanced enough to visit our planet would also be advanced enough to have left behind brutality, wars, and all forms of inhumanity. It is my belief, that we on planet Earth, need to learn how to come only from the loving space of in our hearts before we can truly explore the depths of outer space." Now the time has come. Those of us on the pathway of consciousness have increased so much that we have tipped the balance. We are now in a position to be allowed to join the Intergalactic Federation of Sovereign Planets. This will take place within the next 10 to 12 years. This is what this means for humanity: Soon there will be no more poverty, suffering, illness, child abuse, torture, or wars. We are now in a position to lovingly overcome all our limitations. Please read this book. See what will unfold for us in the next few years. "I awoke with a start and found the bedroom bathed in a bluish, iridescent light. At first, I thought that I had fallen asleep with the TV on, but the screen was dark. The lighted dial on the bedside digital clock radio read 2:32 a.m. It was Wednesday, June 11, 1997..." And so began the most astounding journey that former Los Angeles Times journalist Phillip H. Krapf had ever embarked on in the 62 years of his life. In those early-morning hours, Krapf found himself whisked aboard an alien spaceship where he spent the next three days being peacefully indoctrinated into a fascinating new world by extraterrestrials called "Verdants." What he learned there was that these alien beings, who have been observing the Earth for 1,000 years have decided that the time has come for mankind to be invited into the Intergalactic Federation of Sovereign Planets. Hundreds of prominent world citizens have been, and are still being, recruited to serve as emissaries to help smooth the way for the eventual extraterrestrial-terrestrial contact that is planned to occur by the end of the first decade of the 21st century. They pose no threat to Earth or its people and simply are here to help smooth the way for humankind to become space explorers and to welcome the species into the Intergalactic Federation of Sovereign Planets, a consortium of approximately 27,000 species on as many worlds scattered throughout the universe. Official contact, according to the established timetable, should occur within the first few years of the new millennium. Humankind should be exploring nearby stars as the newest member of the IFSP no later than the end of the first decade of the 21st Century. This is the story of one person's recruitment to serve as the official chronicler of the coming event. ------------------------- "Spread Your Wings" Seminar a Success by Jason Dunlap Last Saturday, COA sponsored Ronna Herman, a messenger of Archangel Michael, in the "Spread Your Wings" seminar, in Palo Alto, California. A month prior to the seminar, I really put Ronna on the "hot seat", challenging her and Michael to deliver what was expected. Now I'm going to tell you how it measured up, and the reasoning involved. First, let me tell you quite honestly, that if this seminar had lived up to the expectations I had it would have rivaled any event of the century. I couldn't help but have two different expectations. One set of expectations was from my years of experience related to events such as this one. Usually, events like these cost anywhere from $100 to $200 per day, involve learning various creative meditation techniques, a few channeled messages of a promising future, and the chance to have personal contact with someone who has an exceptional connection to spirit. I've been to dozens of such events, most bore me, few have taught me anything new, and most are over priced and over hyped. I'll tell right now, that Ronna Herman gave an excellent presentation, and more than once I was emotionally moved. You have no idea how hard that is to do in regard to me. I am often difficult to reach, emotionally. On a scale from 1 to 10, I'd rate Ronna's seminar about a 7. I value it at the $77 asking price. I've only attended one seminar I'd rate a 10, and that cost me $200 for 4 hours. That was a Tony Robbins seminar that was, indeed, an exceptional experience for me, lavish in it's presentation, and was hyped, and priced way out of proportion to the results. On the other hand, don't be too quick to give my opinion a lot of weight, because the other 32 participant probably got a lot more out of it than I did, and I want to stress that. I'm not lavish with my praise, very conservative, as a matter of fact. So far, only one person gets a 10, so a 7 is good, better than average, worth the money. That said, one should know that I believe Ronna delivers a message and instruction that is quite valuable, especially to neophytes on the path, and those souls looking for hope and good reason to believe the future is positive. For many in the audience, this seminar was, indeed, an initiation into the role of lightworker, and the introduction to adjusting your lifestyle to include meditation, and the pursuit of spirit. I've been on that path for along time, and I've learned these things already. For many, most of what was taught in this seminar and even what we discuss in Center of Attention newsletter is new, out of the ordinary, and a complete different way of looking at things, not to mention, confusing. This seminar had the potential to be a 10 for some, and Tony Robbins would simply seem like a madman to them. The reality of it is that if this seminar had reached my highest expectations we probably would have had to have ambulances standing by. What I wanted and tried to keep expectation of was inappropriate for the forum and audience we had to work with. The purpose of this article is to give you some criterion to choose an appropriate seminar for yourself, because I believe it is time more of you started getting involved in your spiritual growth. At the same time I want to have some fun with this at Ronna's and Michael's expense. First, how I judge the value of a seminar: A One Rating is very bad, and should have cost $10 or less. You should have stayed home and watched TV. The person didn't know what they were talking about and were very amateur. A Two is a professional who doesn't know what they are talking about and charges too much. A Three is presented by someone who has good information, knows what they are talking about, but aren't very good in their delivery, or presentation. A Four is a seminar that gives you new, desired information, the presenter is well organized and speaks well. Where they fall down is usually in the area of too much information, a lot of old, clich‚ information, basically kinda boring. A Five is average. For Four and Five's, I usually could have got just as much out of it from the book. A Six is a good seminar, one where you get more than you could from the book. The speaker is interesting and professional, the information is timely and needed, and the environment and the way things are set up are adequate. A Seven is a better than average event. Special attention is put on every detail, including the set up of the room, the atmosphere, and schedule of activities. In a Seven, all you have to do is show up and you walk away with an experience. Somewhere in the midst of things, you are thrilled from time to time. Ronna Herman's event was this good. An Eight is more thrilling, and you know everybody got a profound experience from it that they never expected. Greg Braden's presentations are somewhere between Eight and a Nine. A Nine exceeds the expectations of what you hoped to get from it. A Nine changes you. You gain unexpected knowledge and insight, you can't help but share your experience for weeks to come. A Ten is "wow!". A Ten is much more than you expected, you learn things you wouldn't have ever thought of, it is a life changing experience, one you'll never forget and will continue to use the principles in your daily life. Few measure up because a Ten requires exceptional ability on the part of the presenter, a profound environment, exceptional organization, and financing. So, now you know where I stand on the subject. I recommend Ronna Herman to anyone who wants to really get that they are capable of making their life work and the assurance that (usually) unseen forces are working to, help you do that. The thing she claimed in her advertisement that I think is a stretch was, "you will know, beyond a doubt, how much love there truly is in the hearts of the Beloved Beings waiting in the unseen realms....". I'm still expecting to one day have that experience of knowing. I still have my doubts. This event did not convince me that Archangel Michael was real, or that he was, indeed, present, but I have my suspicions. All of us need to have ways of dealing with emotional upsets, psychological problems, physical and mental problems. I've spent many years studying these things and have learned a lot. Most of you haven't. In Ronna's seminar, you will learn simple, easy to remember ways of handling the problems of life. I could tell that some of the participants heard something, or picked up on something that really helped them. For them it was at least a Nine seminar. You will learn the laws that govern manifestation, and it is possible to bring love, health, wealth and happiness into your life. It is easier than you think, and you'll have to confront the reality of where you are resistant, and how you cause many of your problems. I believe Ronna is gifted, and whether she has direct contact with Archangel Michael or not is unimportant. I had a personal reading the night before the seminar. I have to admit I felt a benevolent presence, and believe I am part of a group of lightworkers that are close to Michael, as I was told. I was able to gain new insight into a past life remembrance that I had thought was merely something I'd imagined. I even broke down emotionally during the session. Something was going on there, all right. If you have the opportunity, I recommend anyone to contact Ronna for a reading. This strikes me as funny. Barbara told me that Ronna was rather nervous about meeting me. I had no idea! I'm nobody special and often don't realize how intimidating I can be. I guess it could have been my remarks to Jeremiah after his predictions didn't measure up that could have done it. If you remember I told him he should get a new job. Ronna was somewhat concerned what I might write. I was only joking when I said the title of this article could be, "Ronna Herman Seeks New Employment". I forget people take me too seriously sometimes. Ronna, you did good. It all came together, it was an excellent presentation, and COA was proud to present your information to our readers. One thing I want you all to remember. Seminars like this take a lot more than you might think. Barbara is fantastic. I didn't have anything to with this event. She got it all together on her own and what an excellent job she did. Much thanks is due those she got to facilitate. You need several people to transform a sterile, plain hotel room into a suitable place to hang out with angels, and to do it in one hour! She went shopping and found all kinds of neat stuff like real looking roses to drape the backdrop, flowers, crystals, and all sorts of decorative stuff. I could never do that. I love her so much for filling that "dull spot" in me. Until it all came together, looking so beautiful, I'm sure Ronna was worried that she'd have to do the event in a rather dull environment. Once we unloaded a pile of boxes and paraphernalia it looked like a bunch of little elves in sweatshirts scurrying around for an hour or so, and then it was done! The elves disappeared and shortly returned outfitted in beautiful attire, as if nothing had happened. The event began and ran smoothly from beginning to end. Thank you everyone. So before you complain about what it costs, remember it takes weeks of planning, lots of help, and the person presenting has to make a living. How many of these things do you think a person can do a month? Probably two or three is the most you can do and you have to make at least a thousand bucks or you can't afford to do it. If you can make four or five thousand dollars, you can then use your resources to make more improvements and do more things. Ronna was willing to come here, stay at a strangers house, and do the seminar if only one person showed up. As it was, 32 attended and most were paying participants. I'm glad we could make it worth her while, and we made a little money, too. My rule of thumb is, $100 per person, per day is fair for a Five or better seminar. $150 is a bit much, it better be at least a Nine. Lee Carroll, the person who channels Kryon is giving a seminar in April. It costs $450 for 2 1/2 days (light meals included. Lodging & transportation not included). No offense Lee, but I think that is a bit too much. At some point the necessity to make a living takes away the point of the mission. I'm just being opinionated, and it is easy for me to talk, since I doubt I deliver a Ten seminar. In closing, I want to encourage you to attend some classes, seminars, or group meetings of some kind. You won't always get a Ten, but average is okay and will benefit you. You must invest your money and time in this. Books only go so far, you eventually have to get up close and personal in order to integrate all you've learned. You can't wait until somebody gives it to you for free. I know that a hundred dollars is a lot to many of you. All I can say is, let spirit guide you. Pay attention, look over the ads in the back of the newsletter, and other magazines. See if something doesn't strike you just right. If it does, plan on taking action. Get out there and do some event at least twice a year. ------------------------------ Barbara's Realm By Barbara Bane Thank You, Ronna Herman and all of the incarnated angels that helped put the "Fly Your Vision" seminar together. The angels are Massie, Anand SaRA, Cathy, Rosemary & my daughter Patty. A special thank you to Warren for all of the help he so freely gave. I also give thanks to Archangel Michael and all of the Angels that assisted me with the preparations. I hadn't forgotten the time and energy that went into the last event COA put on and I was kicking and screaming about putting this one on. Once I stopped resisting and started listening it became easier. All in all , the angelic realm did most of the work. And I am extremely glad that I agreed to participate. The seminar itself was very informative. The information given, was for some old, but it is always good to be reminded of the things that we take for granted and forget to use. The best part for me was the 'breathing' information. Since I am a person who forgets to breath, it was a great reminder just how important the breath of life is. The toning & POW sounds were also very useful to me. Connecting with the vibrations that are part of our everyday lives and actually using them to awaken the dormant memories and releasing old patterns was very beneficial to me. The meditations were very powerful, it was difficult for me to maintain a 3D consciousness. (I was at the back of the room and my job was to maintain the protective energy of the room). I did at one point take off and I do believe that I was in the 5th dimension. At the end of that meditation I had to go outside and hug a tree. Ronna's delivery of information is a pleasure to experience. She keeps the energy moving and you can feel it. I look forward to the next time Ronna and I can work together. I promise I won't kick and scream! LETTING GO OF OLD PATTERNS By Barbara Bane One of the things I got from the "Fly Your Vision" seminar was that letting go of the old patterns that have held us back for so long is very important. When you support someone who is stuck in the "Poor Me!", "My life is a mess", "You don't understand", "In the past I had ....", it is not helping them. It is time to let go of the past and get on with the NOW! For those of you out there who are miserable and still drawing on past energy, living with regrets, wondering why your family left you, why life just doesn't go the way you want it to, let it go! Look inside and find that spark of life that keeps you alive, and build on it, not the past. Sure you may have had a rotten time of it and maybe you were abused, it doesn't mean you have to live the rest of your life that way. Choose to let it go and start living in the NOW! Choose to Be Happy! Find the joy in being alive on planet earth NOW! Stop whining! Start laughing and singing! The next time you walk through my door, greet me with a smile and tell me how happy you are to be alive! And I will support you. Walk through my door and start 'whining' and I'll ask you to leave. Blessings to all! Ronna Herman's message Hello, Dear Friends - Here is the message for March. I just returned from a wonderful event in Palo Alto with Barbara Bane and Jason Dunlap of Center of Attention. Lord Michael gave me part of the message to present at that seminar and then finished it after I returned. I am in awe of what is happening these days, and the wonderful information he is giving us. I send you all my love and a big hug. Ronna -------------------------

 


Messages from Archangel Michael March 23, 1998

*** THE GOLDEN PROMISE ***

Beloved Masters, many facets of your belief structure, as well as much of the illusion on which you have built your world are crumbling and shifting at a faster pace each day. It is, indeed, a time of mass awakening, a time when every sentient being, no matter what level of consciousness, is beginning to question and feel an inner discontent.

As the Earth Mother becomes fully conscious she, too, is beginning to bring forth from her subconscious memory the devastation, pain and suffering she has experienced since she agreed to be your host mother for this grand experiment. She also yearns to reclaim and don her garments of Light and now that she realizes this is possible, nothing will stop her from moving forward to her destiny as a Star of Light. I have spoken before of the honeycomb of Light, the consciousness grids that are being reestablished around the Earth. These are now firmly in place and through the efforts of you, the faithful Light warriors around the world, they are slowly being filled with divine Light substance: The resonance or frequencies necessary to lift the Earth and humanity to the next level of consciousness.

Envision these grids as the bloodstream of the Earth and when the higher frequencies hit pockets of negative, impacted energy, or blockages, it creates stress and chaos. As a result, you might liken it to the Earth experiencing the effects of high blood pressure. Just as you are being bombarded with this refined cosmic energy from without and within, so it is with your Earth. As the stargates, or cosmic "freeways" are opened, the influx of energy from the Great Central Sun is allowed to flow freely through this quadrant of the galaxy and into your solar system. The deepest shadows within the Earth's subconscious mind, as well as humanity's are being infused with refined frequencies of Light.

All the ancient memories of your past experiences in the physical are surfacing, as are the memories within the Earth's consciousness. Many of you agreed to incarnate in this lifetime in areas where the worst destruction and negativity were experienced. You were there, my brave ones, and experienced all the pain and suffering along with many others. You hold within the memories which are waiting to be healed and balanced and, together, you will bring about that miracle for humanity and the Earth, as well. As I explained before, you agreed to assist in the healing and balancing of all that has occurred in the past, for this energy must be requalified and harmonized before you can move forward. The past is made up of energy and potential that has already been used. It is engraved within the memory of mass consciousness and woven into the cosmic tapestry. But the past is fluid and flexible, just like the future, and it can be requalified and rewoven, thereby eliminating the errors and imperfections.

The future is filled with unlimited promise, primal cosmic substance just waiting to be molded and used by you, the cocreators of the brave new world of tomorrow. But you must relearn and remember how to grasp and use this great gift, and it is the same with your Mother Earth. The Devic and Elemental Kingdoms, under the supreme direction of the Seven Elohim and the Builders of Form were commissioned to manifest and oversee the divine plan/blueprint for planet Earth. These magnificent Beings, from the greatest to the smallest, served unselfishly for aeons of time, until they could no longer stand the negativity and destructive forces in which they were constantly bombarded. They gradually began to withdraw their energy. Just as your soul-self gradually withdrew from your physical body, leaving only a thin silver cord to connect you with your Divine I Am Presence, so it was with the life force of the Earth, which is supplied through your Solar Logos to the Devic and Elemental Kingdoms. Barely enough primal life substance flowed into the Earth to keep her alive, and to keep her from self-destructing and she, too, went into slumber.

That time is coming to a close. The beautiful servants of the Creator, the Devic and Elemental Kingdoms have been given a new directive. Instructions to begin to infuse the Earth in full force with their Elements of Life. Cosmic Fire, the Life Force of Creation; the Breath of God, the Air Element; the cleansing and life-sustaining Element of Water; and the foundation of your existence on the material plane, the Element of Earth. You may see the changing and erratic weather patterns and shifting earth as destructive forces of nature, but we see it as a necessary process to bring your Earth back to health and balance. The elements are not your enemies, they are divine gifts from the Creator, but you have misused and abused the Earth and yourselves long enough. Just as with a wayward child, it is time for humanity to be taught accountability and responsibility for its actions.

It is quickly becoming evident which areas of the planet are most in need of cleansing and balancing. We are endeavoring to keep the level of pain and suffering at a minimum, and as you have been told, the mass destruction of your planet is no longer a possibility. However, as is the case when you allow your physical body to deteriorate to the point that your life force is threatened, so it is with the Earth. Drastic measures must be taken.

That is why we tell you that these times in which you are now living are so critical. Every opportunity must be taken to assist the Earth to birth and reclaim her Light body. That is why we have asked you to come together at the time of each full moon in meditation with the intent of allowing the influx of cosmic life force to flow through you and into the Earth. You must take advantage of each opportunity offered you within the grand design of Creation. We ask you to become aware of the wondrous opportunity to be a part of the transformation of the Earth and humanity. Join together at the Spring Equinox, and the time of the Wesak Festival during the full moon of Taurus. This is a most sacred event when the Blessed Buddha, representing the Wisdom of God, and the Christ Maitreya, representing the Love of God comes forth to allow the Divine Will and Spirit of God to flow through them to all humanity, from the lowest to the highest.

The Summer Solstice is a time when the creative life force available for the year reaches its peak. A time when you have the maximum potential to direct and mold your dreams and aspirations, and bring them to fruition. As you come together in common purpose with unselfish intent to assist in the transformation and restructuring of the Earth, you will have all the fuel and fire of Creation at your beck and call. It is powerful and wondrous to come together with others in the physical at such times, but if this is not possible, beloveds, know that your participation is still needed and important to the whole. At these sacred times, no matter where you are, alone, with only one other, or amongst thousands you will create a heartlink around the world and your blazing heart flame and sacred breath will capture, ignite and radiate the exquisite, precious gift being offered from the Most High around and through the Earth. Your contribution, no matter how small you may believe it to be, is of vital importance. Together, you can move mountains, calm the seas and soothe stormy elements of fire and wind. Call on the blessed Devas and precious Elementals. Solicit their cooperation and assistance, as you recreate a bond and working relationship, one with another. Just as you have reestablished a relationship with your body elemental and your Higher-Self it is time to, once again, begin to work in harmony with the elemental forces of Creation. You will be the winners, I assure you.

I ask you to set your analytical mind aside for a short time. See or sense your conscious mind shift to the side, as if it were perched on your shoulder. Give it a form or shape--make it real. This is advisable when you are in a meditative state or endeavoring to tap into your Higher or Causal Mind in order to access the wisdom of Spirit. You cannot live or function within just your emotional body, nor can you function within the mental body alone (the mind). Spirit is meant to inhabit the whole body, not just the heart (emotions) or the head (intellect). It is time you become aware of the science of Spirit and not just the emotions of Spirit. Most of your current religions are based on the emotions of Spirit, resulting in fear-based reactions of guild, shame, feelings of low self-esteem, sense of powerlessness, or of not being in control of your destiny.

Now with your inner vision, give your subconscious mind a form, as well. It might take the shape of a person with a body, or just a fluid shape or color, but we want you to know, without a doubt, that these elemental parts of yourself are real and have great influence over you. There is no right or wrong way to do this, it is your personal experience and valid for you alone. See your subconscious mind in a big room with many locked files and doors. Within these dark compartments are all the subjective, subconscious memories that have been stored there down through the ages: fear, sense of failure, unworthiness and being unloved. Here are the energies of rejection, abandonment, shame and guilt, the addictions and phobias that have kept you in bonds of pain and suffering for the many ages of your earthly experience.

Call upon your Divine I Am Presence to radiate a shaft of white, crystalline Light and the Violet Flame down through your crown chakra. See this purifying, transmuting energy filling this great room. As you fling open the doors and compartments, see this wondrous Light permeating every corner, as it begins the process of illuminating and balancing all the misqualified energy stored there. Any thought-forms or energies that are for your highest good remain intact and are enhanced, but those energies and thought-forms which no longer serve you gradually dissolve, making way for new empowering thoughts, urges and impulses.

As you place yourself in this receptive mode so that your Superconscious mind can begin to bring forth new, vital information, your conscious mind will not go into overload, shutdown or reject the input because of linear, conditioned thinking. The last component to this process is to monitor or filter any new information through your heart/thymus area, or your truth barometer. If it feels right, or expansive and is empowering, you may claim it as your truth. If it feels restrictive, there is a sense of dread, or if it is in anyway controlling, or fear-based, set it aside and do not claim it. However, if there is a feeling of neutrality and you are not sure, it could be that it is a new truth waiting to be incorporated into your belief system and it will take time for it to be validated. If you ask, it will be, through a dream, a book, an event or a person--give it time and you will know without a doubt.

Now that I have given you the ground rules, I will give you an example of expanded truth that is waiting to be incorporated into your belief system in order that you make take the maximum advantage of what is being offered. Since the time you and the Earth spiraled down into the frequencies of the third dimension, in each lifetime before you incarnated, under the guidance of your Divine Self, along with your guides and teachers, it was determined what would be the best circumstances for your spiritual growth. This you already know. But in addition, you were also given an assignment, an opportunity to serve and grow in consciousness. In many lifetimes it was a very simple assignment, but at times you were given a mission of greater importance which would take wisdom, commitment and courage. See yourself going before your Great I AM Presence and being infused with Divine Light Substance of, say, a one-hundred watt light bulb for an easy or non-challenging lifetime. But when you were asked or given the opportunity to make great strides in your spiritual growth, or to assist in the Divine Plan, you were allowed to draw, hypothetically, one-thousand watts of energy, or possibly even more. So goes the saying, " When much is given, much is required in return."

You have had lifetimes when you were given great gifts, just as those you may see and envy in others. Each of you has had an opportunity to forge ahead of the masses and make an impact on the future of humanity and the Earth. When you used those gifts for the good of all, more was added to, or made available in, your bank of Cosmic Life Substance, but you did not always bring it all into the physical experience with you. That is why we say, do not judge anyone by appearances. The homeless man on the street may have chosen to experience that facet of being, while he has great gifts and riches stored in the keeping of his Divine Self. Now this is a simplistic explanation of what actually occurs when you are between lives and before you take on another assignment on the physical plane. However, it will give you a general idea and an opportunity to expand your consciousness into a higher awareness of how Spirit moves and works within you and through you.

What I wish to instill within your consciousness is the golden promise we made to you before you came into the physical in this lifetime. We of the higher realms and you as well, knew that this was a "Make it or Break it" time in the evolution of the Earth and humanity. The promise was made that you would have an opportunity in this one lifetime to access and tap into the full force and measure of Cosmic Life Substance stored and waiting for you within the heart of your Divine I AM Presence. That is why so many of you are moving forward in leaps and bounds: Accessing, integrating, radiating ever-increasing wisdom, love and Light.

That is why it is so important that you diligently seek to balance and harmonize your four bodily systems and allow the radiance of Spirit to pour forth to and through you. As you honor and balance the body, through pure, loving thoughts and practice deep, vitalizing breathing and energizing motion and activity, you create a perfect environment for your Divine Essence, the Spark of the Creator, to take full dominion and residency within your physical vessel. The Golden Promise will then be fulfilled. Oh, what wonders are being wrought amongst you and on your blessed planet. See beyond the discomfort of the moment and cast your gaze upon the perfection of the future, my brave warriors. Victory is in sight, do not falter now, faithful ones. We are only a heartbeat away, surrounding, protection and loving you beyond measure. I AM Archangel Michael.
