Harvesting Passion

October is the traditional time when we reap that which we have sown. We are 10 months into the “New Year” and many of our resolutions are nowhere near top of mind, let alone found in our daily experience. Another year has mostly passed where the bounty is seemingly “less than” that which we had hoped.

God, why are we so hard on ourselves?

Upon reflection, is that a prayer, or a statement of fact? Perhaps both, perhaps neither. It might be a measure of our PASSION!

Seems like a rite of passage…beating ourselves up due to some perceived shortcoming or failing…usually on a daily, hourly or minute basis. Unchecked, this exercise affects our immune system and everything we plan to accomplish today and tomorrow.

To further understand passion’s role in our lives, you must consider your path. What is it you are here to do? What unique skills and interests are you to bring to the world party? What fulfills you, challenges you, inspires you and yes, drives you to the highest state of accomplishment that you are capable of experiencing at that time?

Passion is what gets you up in the morning due to a sense of anticipation of the new skills and opportunities for learning that will be mandatory to grow today. Passion is any great, powerful emotion, especially love or hate that seemingly drives you to act.

So there’s the rub…love or hate…more of us are choosing hate, or fear, or shame, or guilt or apathy, or grief.

My observations lately have to do with the manner in which people are processing out the unwanted emotions that affect them greatly, and from that place, assume that they are their emotions. What a miracle to learn that they are purging from the past and not necessarily the person they are detoxing!

There are comments and beliefs and prophecies about the coming 2012 potentials for which I am skeptical to be sure. But, one key area of agreement is that the consciousness of the planet is being forced to rise. As I have said in countless seminars, we can all increase our consciousness incrementally or the lowest consciousness energetic forms will “leave.”

So, what does this mean?

Have you noticed that the largest areas of destruction on the planet are also in the areas where consciousness is lowest? Utilizing the Map of Consciousness in the book Power vs. Force by David Hawkins, MD, Ph.D. and in his follow-up books on consciousness research, the lowest areas of consciousness are seemingly being swept off the planet by tsunami’s, earthquakes, weather disasters, war and famine. Is this a unique occurrence or has this been happening all the time?

It seems that, at least outwardly, the places that have a passion for living are creating a vibrant situation where true living and experiencing is the norm. Areas where disease, famine and war are the norm are further re-creating this vibration by the challenges they continually deal with daily.

Perhaps Mother Earth has said “enough”.

A very smart and influential person in my life has referred to this period as a “thinning of the herd.” Stephen Lewis, founder of the AIM Energetic Balancing program, recently wrote an article and sat down for an interview with me (WWW.EMC2CONSCIOUSNESS.COM) entitled, Don’t Shoot the Messenger, where he explains his energetic perspective on what is happening now. (Listen to the podcast here.)

Stephen has been following this challenging situation for 15 years now, ever since he measured an aerosolized frequency that included HIV, Hepatitis D and Swine Herpes. Since that moment, he has been writing and speaking on the fall of Life Force via his technology. Even in the midst of this experience, Lewis has maintained his passion for excellence as many are assisted in their healing process via this method.

While hosting some of the key metaphysical teachers of our time on the show EVERYTHING IS ENERGY on www.isysiv.com along with Stephen, I am reminded of the key teachings of the Masters from our past. It is from this place that I once again find my passion and move forward on the path to accomplishment…to do my part well and to know that all is well, regardless of current observations from my level of consciousness.

When I look back over 2009, I see many area of accomplishment where gratitude has walked hand-in-hand with anticipation and potential. As well, I see many areas where I have missed my internal mark…for now…and know a higher or better process has replaced the initial goal set for myself some 10 months ago. Even in the midst of a goal that has gone unaccomplished, I can find areas where the changing of the seasons allowed a new and fresh perspective to be seen and thereby, shift happened!

Guidance comes from everywhere and with everything. The question is whether or not your vibration or frequency is at the level to “read” these signatures. Given our current world experience, it can be difficult to maintain a level where the signatures are easily recognizable. The collective unconscious surrounds us every instant…and with so much detox occurring, it can appear to be VERY challenging…because it is.

As we come closer to that time where the thinning of the herd is more apparent and easily recognized, mass consciousness will begin it’s downshifting into survival mode and things may seem even worse. But once there, we will see the answer as a mass consciousness experience that, I believe, will lead us all to the “promised land” which could seem like heaven on earth.

The passion we must harvest is already here. Instead of searching for it, we must instead remove everything that is hiding what is already present. Just as the “David” was already in the stone, so must we channel our inner Michelangelo to remove the chunks that no longer fit or that inhibit our destiny. The pursuit or recognition of our passion and our passionate pursuits will be the outcome once those activities, thoughtforms or karmic propensities have been balanced and removed from our consciousness.

I know it feels “heavy” out there right now and that it isn’t likely to get better soon…but this is where we get to build up our inner core and to remember who we are and why we are here. This is the work we stood in line to share and experience with each other. What do you say we all hold a grateful vibration for the next 30 days, 30 hours or 30 seconds, and see if things change? Once we have experienced that success, we can repeat it and share it with others looking for their path home and to celebrate with passion the harvest we have so definitely earned through our intention and our experience.
