Prayer For Victory Over Outer Conditions ~

In the name of Love, Wisdom and Power, by the authority and victory of my own Beloved I Am Presence, I demand and command every cell, atom and electron of my physical body, to blaze with the Sacred Fire of Invincible Love and Healing Flames from my Beloved I Am Presence and the Ascended Masters of Light.

I ask for the action of the Law of Forgiveness, for my every transgression of the Law of Love in my daily life, and the past.
I command the Invincible Flames of Purity, of Protection, of Resurrection, and Healing to blaze through my physical body, my emotional body, my mental body, my etheric body, my inner child, and my body elemental, daily and hourly.

In the name of Love, I command my full mastery and victory over all outer conditions in my life to be made manifest. I also ask for the opening and return of all my Spiritual gifts.
I call upon the Law of forgiveness for my errors of the past. I extend forgiveness to all souls I have ever hurt in any way, shape or form, in this lifetime and beyond.
I also extend my forgiveness to all souls that have ever hurt me. I call upon the eternal Flame of Cosmic Love, to seize these energies to be drenched in the fires of the Violet Flame, and Ascension Flame.

I give thanks for this Healing.

Beloved I Am! Beloved I Am! Beloved I Am!

( From “Prayers to the Seven Sacred Flames by Aurelia)

The alarm goes off. You press the snooze button and you lie there, listening to the seconds tick-tick-ticking in your head, knowing that they won't go away. 

The bright sunshine streams through your windows and across your face, nudging you to rise to the occasion. But you're struggling. You don't really want to awaken, you tell yourself. You enjoyed the comfort of the darkness, where you didn't have to come to action, or reaction. 

But the curtains are open, Lightworker, and it was you who opened them. It was you who felt the inner stirrings to help, to serve. It was you who finally found your purpose. So you can't shut out all the light, now that you're beaming with good intentions. 

Are you beginning to doubt yourself? Are you wondering how you got into all this Lightworker mess? After all, who are you to proclaim yourself a Lightworker? Who are you to say you are a healer? What makes you so special? 

Well, you can choose to pull the covers right over your head but eventually you will have to come out and greet the sunshine. And you will have to face a few more important facts about your Lightworker status, like how you're going to have to do a lot of forgiving. 

But let's not go there yet. 

I'm a Lightworker, too, and it took me over a half century to even say that out loud because I was afraid it would sound egotistical, almost as bad as proclaiming I was Mother Teresa. My own Lightworker story has been one long journey plagued with anger, fear, tears and doubt. Miraculously, all my traumatic experiences finally led me to becoming a color therapist, spiritual aromatherapist and teacher. I spent many years questioning my Catholicism, wondering why I never felt peace and joy when I came out of mass and believing there had to be something more. When I was a teenager in the early '70s, musicals like "Godspell" and "Jesus Christ Superstar" were popular and I found that they stirred something very strong within me--hope…and shame, mostly. 

At the time, my family life was very difficult and so I escaped the madness by hanging out at a coffee house for teenagers called "The Back Door", which was basically a large room connected to our Catholic church. This is where I played my guitar and sang "Day By Day" and it was dark and lit only with black-light posters and I felt safe there, like I was in a womb. This was also the time I began reading the Seth books and The Magic of Believing by Claude Bristol. That book made a great impact on me and was my introduction to creative visualization, although I now realize I had practiced it all my life. 

My "Jesus Loves You" period was short-lived after some family members ridiculed me, saying I was only pretending to be pious and so I spent the rest of my teens being angry at God and my agnosticism lasted throughout my twenties. Occasionally, there would be a friend who would try to get me involved in a bible study group--or even the Mormons or the Hari Krishnas--but I didn't want any part of it. I felt God had abandoned me--if He even existed at all--and I was so angry that I wouldn't listen to religious Christmas carols during the holidays or even allow a nativity scene or an angel ornament on my Christmas tree. 

I would love to tell you that one day a beautiful angel appeared to me and there was harp music as she told me I was loved and had to change my evil ways, and that's when I began my great spiritual journey. But my awakening was nothing that dramatic, although I do work with angels now. Actually, the most significant thing I can remember is the day I purchased You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay. I was about 30 then. Louise talked a lot about self-love and forgiveness, two things I desperately wanted--and sorely needed. Her book represented a turning point in my life, as did books by Sonia Choquette, Denise Linn and Doreen Virtue, which helped me improve my self-esteem and accept my healing and intuitive abilities. 

For the past 30 years, I have been working on the self-love and forgiveness. And how not to be a victim. Not the easiest things to learn, I can tell you. But I've read a lot, listened a lot and now I'm almost 60 and I feel happy because I know I am clearly on the right path. It's not the same path as yours, it's my path. And it feels right. It feels true. And I know that I am forgiven of all my sins (yes, all of them) and I am very loved. 

So now we get to the forgiveness part, and if this thought makes you cringe, I completely understand. Forgiving someone for doing you wrong is difficult. (After all, people write songs about it.) We get angry. We kick, we scream, we cry. We withdraw. And sometimes we just want to punch someone. Well, these are all natural emotions so you need to forgive yourself for thinking this way. But I guarantee that once you learn to forgive and fully accept your inner Lightworker, everything will soon fall into place. 

As you're growing accustomed to your Lightworker wings, you may find yourself turning to an "expert" for solace. That's fine. Whether a self-help author or spiritual guru, these people have inspired you and their truth may indeed seem like your truth. But please do not make the mistake in believing they are infallible. They are human, too, and they are experiencing their own personal journey. So yes, learn from them but refrain from worshipping them because here's the plain truth: you already have the answers within. 

Yes, you are a Lightworker. Yes, the time is now. So arise, you Sleepyhead--and awaken to your calling!

As we develop love within and learn the truly fine art of self forgiveness and self love, we glow with ever more Light. As our Light shines from within us, straight from the heart, we literally illuminate the space around us. On more subtle levels our high frequency vibrations extend their reach throughout the world, and out into the Universe. They affect, through resonance, all who encounter them. I am sure we would be truly astounded to learn just how far our personal reach of Light is.

With this in mind, it makes so perfect sense to embark on a personal healing pathway without delay, one which includes methods that support the release of our issues - no matter where or how deeply they are squirrelled away. It just makes absolutely no sense to hold onto anything which is of a lowered resonance, because this hampers our progress into other realms. Resonance with these realms allows us to have actual reality experiences, or lives, which are so much more pleasant than anything we have known, yet are everything we have ever dreamed about. 

In support of this process of healing, or maybe as a result of it, I would like to comment on something that made a profound impression on me. I (and others) heard some more truly amazing wisdom tonight - again - from ENKI. He discussed the concept of non-judgement (and other so-called negative tendencies such as anger and criticism) at length, and included in this discussion the reasons why it would be helpful for everybody to practice maintaining themselves in a state of balance, with love.

He basically reminded us that whenever we criticise, judge or get angry - and this includes directing these emotions, thoughts or behaviours towards ourselves - we lose a piece of ourself. When we stay balanced, we maintain our Wholeness.

Personally, that is enough to give me pause for thought.

Ideas about the lofty heights of Ascension are bandied around fairly easily in the various literature, blogs, seminars and websites. However, as much as we might know that humanity and Earth are moving forwards at a rapid rate and developing an awakened state of consciousness, many of our human issues still remain to plague us. The balancing act, therefore, revolves around managing the human emotional state and the ability to continue to work our way upwards in consciousness. Negative emotions, such as anger or fear, are defined as being fallen states, and so the existence of a negative emotion is clearly contrary to the Ascension process.

Understanding that Ascension means that we live our lives at the higher level – or heart-centred – of functioning, supports us to find tools to work out how to deal with negative emotions when they arise. This is important, because it is the lower types of emotion which create a lowered resonance state within us. Anything which is of a low resonance is, by definition, contrary to the raised resonance state of Ascension.

Ascension is defined as a shift into an alternative, higher and/or more expanded state of reality. When in this state of consciousness all of our abilities are enhanced. It is because of this that we become perceptually more competent so as to be referred to as psychic, and easily relate to each other telepathically. Ascension amounts to a dimensional shift, which we are able to do at this time while remaining physically alive on the planet. The big deal about the end of this Great Cycle of Time that is coming to an end on 21 December 2012, and which is detailed by the Mayan Calendar, is that we have the stellar opportunity to shift consciousness to such an significant extent that our experience of reality literally changes.

Achieving a dimension shift while alive on Earth, or Living in Ascension, is essentially related to raising our resonance. The ways that different people choose to do this are many and varied, but always revolve around a few essentials:

• Healing ourselves emotionally, physically and mentally to release whatever no longer serves us on our pathway forwards.
• Re-programming ourselves emotionally, physically and mentally so as to ensure we consciously decide what we want and how we feel and react.

Without the two aforementioned aspects of growth, we are unlikely to make the rapid progress that is required at this time in order to resonate with a higher dimension of reality, in Ascension. If we do choose to go through what are often the arduous processes of detoxification - which involve acknowledging our issues, feeling them and then releasing them - we progress in the following ways:

• The ability to forgive the self and others. It is impossible to forgive any other person until such time as we forgive ourselves.
• The development of self love. It is impossible to love the self until we forgive ourselves.
• The development of unconditional love for all in existence. This is a natural extension from forgiveness and self love.

In conjunction with these processes which help us to develop the ability for unconditional love, any positive shift within will create a shift in resonance, and this is what affects our DNA. Human beings all have dormant DNA. Although these parts of the DNA was de-activated so long ago, it still has the capacity to respond to the higher frequency vibrations which are responsible for raising resonance. Therefore, we re-activate our DNA by raising our resonance. Re-activated DNA results in an expanded, awakened and shifted state of consciousness.

Each and every single one of us is able to progressively enLighten ourselves and move towards the ultimate state of the expansion of consciousness, which is Omnipresence. Although we can certainly acknowledge that most people are a fairly long way off from being All-aware of All That Is, we are nevertheless genetically engineered to be able to be in this state, because Divinity resides within our DNA. Omnipresence is the consciousness of Bliss which is called Oneness. The most natural of all human drives supports progression is in this direction of expansion, and this is the reason why so many people seek the truth, yearn for meaning as to their Soul Purpose, and choose to develop themselves spiritually. We hanker after that which we know we lack, and that is the feeling and the experience of the state of Oneness.

With this in mind, we consider that the processes which are involved in continuously working on ourselves make perfect sense, because it is only by clearing and releasing our issues that we are able to find the peace, forgiveness and love within ourselves that enable us to live in Ascension. In turn, clearing and releasing our issues reduces the chances of falling into the low energy fields of negative emotional states. After working extensively on ourselves so as to raise our resonance, it becomes eminently easier to recover our position should we fall into feeling negative emotions, and/or acting out the associated behaviours. This is very different to what happens when living the reality experiences of a lower resonance. In lower dimensional states we tend to get stuck in the issues which are governed by emotions, and endlessly justify our behaviour in terms of the way other situations or people ‘make’ us feel.

We cannot ignore the fact that we, as human beings, remain susceptible to all sorts of emotions, regardless of our state of consciousness. However, when in a raised state of resonance we recover from them far quicker and, with continued practice, we may even avoid slipping into them for longer than a split instant. It is important to bear in mind that we cannot develop raised resonance, which is necessary prerequisite for the heart-centred Ascension experience of reality, if we continue to either suppress our issues or allow them to persist within us. Therefore, healing of all kinds should be attended to with the utmost urgency, if we want to continue to live on Earth in the future, in a higher dimension of reality.

Knowing that raising resonance is the key progress into the new and more pleasant realities of alternative dimensions, we more readily accept the fact that we are individually responsible for birthing the Golden Age on Earth, simply by doing whatever it takes to raise our resonance.
