The Drama Demon

Ch Ch Ch Changes – Turn and Face the Mirror

 
Who is responsible for this mess?  The government?  Past Presidents, current President, lobbyists, crooked politians.   I know, it is Wall Street and those bankers who only think about their own bottom line.  If I look real hard, dig down deep into my own thoughts I will discover that I am the one who is responsibility for all the changes in my life.  Our world is changing and it is mirroring back to me my thoughts, my desires and my fears.  I take full responsibility for my circumstances.  I acknowledge my role for the current state of affairs.  I know I cannot change what I will not acknowledge.  Facing the mirror can be hard but oh so rewarding.  Change happens with me first.
 
What do I see when I look into the mirror?  Acceptance, Abundance, Compassion, Connection, Laughter and Peace of Mind to name a few.  Every face and every connection you make will mirror back to you how you see yourself and the world.  What do you see when you look into the eyes of your brothers and sisters?
 
One of my biggest thrills at work is teaching others that all of their answers are inside of themselves.  To trust that knowing/intuition.
 
This is a reprint of an article I wrote back in April 2009.  My original piece was going to be about drama this month.  This seemed more appropriate for this time.  We are shifting quickly into the new energies of love and light.  Next step after following your intuition is finding your voice.  Standing in your truth and being able to speak from that platform will shift everything.

Energies for November
 
 By Daniele DeVoe, Channel and Healer
The Rune for November is: Teiwaz ~ Warrior Energy      
 
A good warrior is watchful, patient and action oriented. A good warrior knows what they are fighting for and whom they are fighting to protect. A good warrior even knows when it is wise to stop and save the fighting for another day. And a good warrior becomes a retired warrior when the battle is done and peace is declared.
 
In November we are all being encouraged to choose our battles well, and to look at our incomplete battles with discernment... Maybe they are over and we simply continue to battle them out of habit...
 
Teiwaz never runs from work that must be done, but Teiwaz knows when to stop. This Rune came up because there are battles happening all over our globe these days... And we are being encouraged to fight well, compassionately and to allow the battles to begin to dissolve.  In Blum’s book he says of this Rune: “Embodied [here] is the energy of true and valuable form of discrimination, the sword-like quality that enables us to cut away the old, the dead, the extraneous. [...] Look within to delve down to the foundations of your life itself.”
 
We are deep within the nanosecond and what we focus upon... The battles we choose...
 
Are creating the world which will exist next...
 
(Reference book: The Book of Runes, by Ralph Blum
 
The card from The Faerie's Oracle, by Brian Froud for November is:
The Topsie Turvets 
 
 
Things are seldom what they seem. Which is SO important to remember as we complete the battles that Teiwaz refers to above. So many people believe that the world... That humanity...  Is losing. The Topsie Turvets suggest that the truth is very different from that... Most of what we see and hear about is actually illusion. By changing your perspective, reviewing what you know from a reversed viewpoint, opening to new possibilities, you... We... Can have immense impact on our reality... Now...
 
Where to begin? Begin by taking action where it is needed and appropriate (For example, if you need to get a second job to pay your bills, do so!). As you do that, begin to make the changes which will support your long-term success... Such as: Stop judging yourself and start loving yourself instead. Or how about: Instead of thinking about the horrors of war, contemplate peace and harmony. How about: Rather than worrying about finances, health, weather and so many other issues, think long and often about what gives you joy and opens your heart...
 
We are all in this transitionary time together... And I, for one, am grateful for all the
 
Lightworkers working to help our world ascend... Thank you!!!
 
Namasté!

Message from The Arcturian Group
 
 
We are here dear ones, to again welcome you to a new day of change and transformation. Things on your beloved planet are heating up with regard to the old energy being transformed into new and better ways of serving the people;  by the people and for the people. This concept has been lost to many and is now returning as your growing light illumines its journey back into the human consciousness.  You have played the game long enough, it is time now to remember.  The journey of awakening while within the dark was a fine game--although often very traumatic and painful, but through its harsh lessons of separation you have journeyed to remembrance and to the recognition of what and who you are. The game was not meant to last forever. It is time now to let all that is old and finished release.  
 
Your words and thoughts are very powerful and have become even more powerful as your resonance has evolved.  Be careful what you wish for, say, or think, for as light beings you are creators. Not understanding this,  you wonder why certain events manifest into your lives.  Begin to think and live in truth at all times. When you do, karma is no longer valid.  At this point you begin to  meet your lessons with truth instead of karma.  Do not judge by appearances, but simply understand that appearances are the manifestation of the human belief system.  You will always see pairs of opposites in the third dimension, for it is an energy of duality and separation.  As you grow more into a consciousness of One, the outer will reflect this and  manifestations will be of a higher level.
 
Trust your intuition always, and because you are aware of what is happening, you can be of great help to those who as of yet do not understand.  You will become the teachers when  the revelations come to be.  That is why at this time you must work on your own journey, strengthening your inner awareness and growth through meditation and practice.  You will then have a full tool box  with which you can help those who come behind, ready for the shifting energies, but having no idea of what is taking place.  Those who have given their power to the government,  churches, and others, will find themselves floundering in confusion and that is when you will step in and say; "Be not afraid..."
 
We finish with telling you that you are doing a fine job of it.  Do not think you have to perform this or that, recite this mantra or that, stand this way, chant this chant, or do anything.  Stand in the light of truth, and rest in the realization that you are now, always have been, and always will be One with the Divine, and any teaching contrary to this is simply false.  This is Divine Law.
 
In love, we are the Arcturian Group.

Living Life From the Present Moment 
 
It doesn’t need to take this whole life, or many years, or even another breath to discover the fullness of the present moment. It is a sad and erroneous belief that it has to take a long time to find even a taste of living life from the present moment. It just isn’t true.
 
 
I grew tired of reading what it could be like from the perspective of others who seemed to have gotten “it.” And when I did, the path swiftly unfolded for me to discover that one’s true nature is firmly rooted always and forever in the present moment – there never was anywhere to go; nothing to get.
 
I just want you to know this because some of you out there are tired too. And you deserve to recognize your true nature, to rest in that. What’s more is that this path can be not only swift, but joyful. As always, don’t take my word for it. Check it out for yourself.
 
Namaste –   Amanda Rodasi Campbell

Hello Rocketes and Rockhounds 
  
Did you know that we (the rocks) work for you and watch over you, always?  Even if you don’t consciously pick one of us to work with, by passing one of us on the beach or shelf we instinctively pour our energy into you.  We love you greatly and see you as the most perfect and multi-talented jewel you are!!  
 
It confuses us greatly to see how you devalue and close your hearts and eyes to your very own perfection, always believing that you lack this or that.  You are each unique and valued for that which only you have been blessed with.  Your lack of belief in yourself robs us all. 
Inside of you may be the idea that halts global warming, that finds a more natural way to feed millions.  Your next song may be the song that moves hundreds of hearts into oneness.  Your words could pull one or hundreds of sad unhappy people back into the light.  Your paintings could make a blind man see.  Therefore we offer our beloved Citrine to help you grow into the mantle of greatness that is you. 
 
 
a.k.a...the giggle stone!
 
Citrine will help you gently over the hump of no esteem, while filling you with the passion and drive to create, create, create.  Citrine never has to be cleansed.  It will draw negative energy into itself, refreshing and recharging it to the positive. 
 
In these days of so much rapid change, it is the perfect stone to handle panic attacks.  If you are disturbed by bad dreams simply place it under your pillow and poof gone.  I will help you to fine tune your concentration and focus.  No more will you find yourself stuttering and digging for the right words.  We cannot stress enough how important this stone will be in these changing times.  AND if we make Kafi write everything that Citrine can do she will run screaming from the building (she hates typing). 
 
We urge you to look up our cousin Citrine in the “Crystal Bible” by Judy Hall for all the wonderful things it can help with.  This time on the planet is the jump off for wonderful, mystical, magical change for the entire earth.  ITS GOING TO BE GRAND.  Please let us help you through the tremors and after-shocks.  You’ll be so glad you did.  Be at peace, keep smiling and most of all LIVE YOUR JOY.
  
May love and light follow you, always.   Namasté
Kafi - The Rock Diva

The Drama Demon
  
 
 
Drama. We all get sucked into it at times if we aren’t awake and aware. I refer to awake and aware as being in my right mind. I am totally guilty of being asleep at the wheel, jerking awake to look around and say “What the hell just happened? How long have I been here?”
 
What gets me is that I know better. I have practiced standing in that neutral space, separating the facts from the stories and blocking the energies shot in my direction. Still, sometimes I’m caught unaware. I am grateful for the years of practice that help me “wake up!” much sooner than later.
 
This ever happen to you? You get wrapped up in your perceptions, or someone else’s perceptions, making up stories and proclaiming what is right and what is wrong - rather loudly! Then you proceed to bring others into your drama, convincing them that you are right and justice must be served! Well, maybe not to that extreme. Maybe you just start feeling bad, your vibration takes a dive, and you just want to feel better.
 
Is it possible to avoid the Drama Demon? Yes. Let me give you a couple examples.
