Loving Thanks to Phoenix for this.
A new world awaits and our next step in the journey to this beautiful realm is to say goodbye to the old one, the ways of pain, condemnation (negative judgement), bondage to systems, debt to others, dogma and so many things that control us whether we realise it or not. For instance; many of you may reject religion, yet it still dominates your attitudes of what is right and wrong. A complex subject which is another story, I would suggest you contemplate how the rules of society have been shaped by religious dogma, why is marriage a matter of law rather than simple a matter of love etc.
For our being to be unified as one harmonic, unified conscious self - 'your' soul, your astral body. YOUR etheric bodies, your this and that no more, just simply YOU, the 'I AM', the higher vibration selves need a vessel (your physical self) that is not essentially a slave to negative thoughts, emotions, memories and connections. This is the big 'let go' folks, you need to move on, unshackle those chains.
For the moment we cannot let go of many of life's dictates, however we can do a lot of work concerning the body of pain we carry - all those things people have done that resulted in your physical or emotional wounds. We may feel that 'they' are not worthy of forgiveness, so grave their harm to others, but in not forgiving their past actions still cause us pain. And what of you - who have you hurt in this life. So forgiving yourself is another vital aspect of purifying and freeing yourself - letting go of the past so that your future is not influenced by those negative vibrations.
The following is a suggested technique for achieving this:
Each day think of a person who has hurt you, been a negative influence in your life - the alcoholic father, the manager that ruined your career, the spouse that cheated, the Doctors mistakes, the brother that wasn't there for you, whatever and whoever it is, select one and visualise them. Try not to focus on a negative memory, just see the person standing before you in an unthreatening way that involves no power struggles etc. Say to them:
"I am going now, before I do I want you to know that I hold no grievances, what is done is done, I hope you will accept my love and that it will help you along your path."
Hug them or shake their hand, whatever feels right as a gesture of love, and feel love for them, rise above what happened, heal the moment, transform that circumstance, see a shroud of violet light about them. As a parting gesture smile, wish them well, see them as if they were standing on the other side of a river, or the street. There is a chord that flows from you to them, like an etheric telephone wire, take a knife, sword or scissors and cut that chord now. It falls away and you can see that person gradually fading from your vision. They no longer exist as part of your reality and part of your being.
You might feel a shift in energies, light headed afterwards. This is because you have been carrying a huge weight around, probably for years, its gone now. One by one, day by day heal another, release another chain. This ceremony is also important in existing relationships and for those acting as a carer for other people. You may not actually want to let go of that person, but what you should do is release the exchange of energy draining that may be occurring, cutting the chord allows you to establish a more positive connection with them.
Eventually there is you, what can you not forgive yourself for? What did you do wrong - the answer must be nothing. The ceremony in this case is different. Stand at a rivers edge, the river is shallow, you see water flowing swiftly over rocks and pebbles. Remove your clothes, there is no one around but if that makes you feel uncomfortable just stand bare footed and then walk into the river. Acknowledge the fact that you are human, at least in the incarnate state, and that we ALL make mistakes, that was the old you though, its done, past and must not prevent you from being what you want to be.
In the water you see a reflection of yourself, through that reflection say:
"I forgive you because I love you (your name), I love what you are becoming, it is a wonder, it is beautiful, I love you for this moment that at long last 'we' share. It's good to be back."
Now think of some moment, a memory of guilt or shame. Imagine it as being like a small brown or heavy energy cloud that you are too light now (in every sense of the word light) to hold anymore, gravity is pushing it down through you, into your feet, still it cannot hold and the water carries it away, you see it dispersing and flowing away with the river knowing that energy will soon be purified by minerals and crystals in the river, it will never exist again. If you find that it wont go away, again imagine there is a chord connecting you to it and cut that chord - whoosh its gone. Now say to your reflection:
"You are healed, healthy, happy, loved, I appreciate you so much."
Hold out your arms to the reflection, see it rise from the water like a translucent you and feel it merging with you until in peace you are no longer 'we', you are 'I'.
Now walk to the other side of the river where a white cloak has been waiting for you, resting in the grass. As you put it on it feels so incredible soft and warm, it is a gift to yourself because your worth it. As you relax there say:
"I am perfect as I AM"
Love and Light
