As a Diver in the Depths

Channeled on September 6, 2017

In these times, in these “lighten-ing” times, we must go forth bravely into what we feared to face in the past. We must go forth bravely into the dreams and wishes we had let go of—meaning, the disappointments that we carry that they never came true. For if we can face, if we can go into this disappointment and let it dissolve around us, what is left is the wishes, and now they come true.
 
So do not be afraid to face what comes up, what you thought had been buried long ago—from the time of the child, from the time of the adult, from any places, corners within your soul where you have tucked away these little disappointments, regrets, fears and so forth. Now is the time to look at them so they may dissolve. If you insist on keeping these things hidden from yourself they might integrate into you. We do not wish for you to become stuck in any of your old concepts of yourself. Therefore we ask that you look into these things as they come up in order to let them go. It is not that you need to go into a psychotherapy session, or to sit for long hours mulling about your past. But like air bubbles rising up in a great sea, you might start to see these things come up before you. And as a diver in the depths, as someone curious, please look at them. Please do not try to anchor them down to stay hidden, but look at them and let them come fresh to life. And then the bubble will be popped and that issue will no longer exist for you.
 
So we say you are warriors in a sense, but more than that curiosity-seekers and voyagers within your own life. So just be open, be curious to what landscape you thought you knew so well. You might notice a few surprises here and there, and then let them go please. This is a time of adventuring, of exploring, in this next month or so particularly. We are looking into on a global scale what has held us back in terms of a concept of ourselves. These deep little fears and so forth which has kept us from growing into our fuller, more joyful existence. So let us look at all these things. If you like, think of it as a funeral process where you name the qualities of the person—in this case it might be a fear or a concept—name the qualities, bless and release, and let it go. These things are dying to us, if we will allow them to be seen and let go of.
 
The alternative is to face the other direction, like a child pouting, facing the wall and not allowing—out of petulance—not allowing things to be seen because the child does not want them to be there. So especially if you have this feeling arise in you: “I don’t want this.” Ah, that is the time! That is the clue to yourself: turn around and face this. It is ready to be let go.
 
This is not a battle in any traditional sense. You do not need to overpower any of these past fears and regrets and so forth. This is just a facing, an acknowledging and a letting go. The letting go will happen quite naturally, the peace that you have some self-effort in here is in seeing and acknowledging what was. That is all you need to do here. See and acknowledge, instead of have another few drinks and a bag of potato chips and pretend it is not there.
 
So we ask you to see and acknowledge what comes before you in this month or so. And do not worry so much please about what judgments you place on yourself about having so many fears and doubts. That is like watching the run-off water of the car wash and thinking: How could I have possibly let so much dirt accumulate? Instead of looking at what is becoming of the car, this beautiful shining thing. So the dirt has collected—the fears and so forth have collected—so what? Now is the time of letting them go. Without judgment on our selves. Without judgment on anyone else that we believe has placed them there for us. In truth these are just things to be let go of, and they want to be seen. So be that deep diver in your life and look at them. That is all that is asked of us in this brilliant changing time, to be a sort of voyeur for our own inner landscape.
