Ahoy there!

Last night was powerful.

Huge.

Magickal.

And I am feeling drawn this day to sharing with you what I wrote last night for my 750words.com words, just as it was written.

Very little editing.

Not ‘just the facts’, for this is a matter of the heart and soul as much as anything else, but as it flowed, from mind to heart to fingers.

So it rambles a bit in tone, but please bear with me, as I share this gift of my heart.

Excerpt from 750words.com words for 03-28-11

Wow.

So much has happened today.
And yet it’s been very quiet.

A fantastical post by Laura Espinosa today reminded us of how it is necessary not only to remember the past, but also to transcend it.

Us, you say?
Have you suddenly gone plural?

And the answer is both yes,… and no. (Love the original typo of ‘now’! :-D )

Yes, because it is only the second time I have felt this sense of ‘other’ noticing too, in this exact way.
No, because I have been plural forever.

So have you.

Let me explain. :>

The way that I’ve made sense of the world has been the learning given to us by the Guide Jacob, channelled by Judy Crookes. (There was a website until recently, but since Judy is taking a bit of a sabbatical to practice other work, it is not up right now.)

What he/they have taught us is that you can think of your soul as a pizza. (A multi-dimensional pizza, mind, but bear with me. It’s the first explanation of any of this that made sense to me, so it’s the one I use when explaining.)

  • You have the dough, which forms the exterior of the pizza.
  • You have the sauce, which represents the emotional body.
  • You have the various toppings (pepperoni was the first used, and thus amuses me) which represent the various soul selves that comprise this ground (?) group mind of sorts.

And then, in the line of that individual pepperoni, you (usually) have a series of lives.

And that’s where the ‘us’ comes in.

You see, as near as I have been able to determine it, my last life was as a gentleman who flew in WWII.

In Burma.

So, he also had a great deal of reason to hate the Japanese.

And I felt a distinct sense of ‘presence’ when I read, which is unusual, as I had always gotten that he was a very practical, this-world-based, show-me kind of a person, who was quite happy to leave it that way. (Understatement!)

Together we read, and understood, and thus, transcended.

Transcended the hate.
Transcended the  history.
Moved on into a brighter world.

Whoa! THAT was kyool.

And written essentially  by yours truly too. Not that sense of Gang direct participation as there frequently is.

So, anyhoo, I read that post, and then we went to J.A.C.O.B. tonight, and they talked about ‘Perspective’.

Very kyool.

Everything is connected.

And Laura gave us a spoken word version of her post as well.

“One 3 inch by 3 inch square at a time.”

Transcendence, sweetie. Perspective.

That’s how you can do it.
That’s why you do it.

1000 cranes.
1000 cranes.

Love.

Understanding that the hard times and those who rail against you are those who also can lead you home.

Lead you to glory.

Lead you to that white light that transcends all because it IS all.

(Mage our tuxedo-cat is joining in in the magick of this moment – there is burbulling in the hall.)

Thank YOU Laura.
Thank you for sharing your heart.
Thank you for baring your soul.
Thank you for learning and loving and folding.

It is an honor to know you.

And I salute you.
And so does the man I once was.

For teaching him a lesson he wasn’t prepared to learn in life.
For helping to set him free.

Thank you.

Bless you.

Love you.
