Finding the Path for Actualizing the One Foot In Atlantis Experience

 

As we get closer to the end of 2020, here are some thoughts...

The big story this year (besides the obvious one) has been and continues to be ENERGETIC CHANGES.

The much talked about shift supposedly began rolling in 2012, although many "First Wave Volunteers" such as myself felt the beginnings of awakening in 1999.

After nothing significant appeared to happen on the 2012 solstice, some of the ascension talk died down. However, sensitive people, especially the "volunteers" (as Dolores Cannon dubbed them) knew something was still changing from 2013 onward.

Whatever one's level of awareness, 2020 came in with a loud bang that got our attention. Energetically, the months from August onward into fall were particularly challenging. If any of the prophetic lore concerning global ascension into a higher dimension is true, it would follow that a great deal of chaotic disruption would be necessary, and that we have experienced. Many of us have felt it in our physical bodies, and continue to, although for myself the pace has slackened in December to a more manageable level.

Something relatively major is expected culminate on or around the December 21 solstice. I don't know what it will be, and the purpose of this article is not to speculate on that. Dolores Cannon foresaw a "New Earth" emerging at some point, and how that will come about is still a mystery to me.

What I am writing about here is the feeling that a path has emerged for myself that appears to take us toward a form of "New Earth". My term for this is "One Foot in Atlantis". It involves a gradual evolution of spiritual awareness, along with increasing ability to draw upon the resources of Spirit to solve problems on Earth. You can read details on this in my Facebook group One Foot In Atlantis

In this space, I simply wanted to mention some of the disparate authors and teachers that have contributed to pointing me down this path.

Dolores Cannon, Brian Weiss, and Michael Newton opened my eyes to spiritual reality. Carolyn Myss taught me about soul contracts and the energetic causes of disease. Kryon (as channeled by Lee Carroll) confirmed the key points that Carolyn Myss made concerning how our physical reality is determined by our etheric field, and how the epigenetics pioneered by Bruce Lipton and others is a real thing.

I should include mention of the Seth books, channeled by Jane Roberts, which contain endless discourse on the Nature of Reality and how physical reality is projected by our unconscious or subconscious minds.

Hypnotherapists such as Cannon, Weiss and Newton each had many clients that experienced sudden and profound healing from physical ailments by accessing the subconscious under hypnosis, although a comprehensive model of how this works seemed to elude them. Hypnosis seems to allow us to bump into things without really knowing how it's supposed to consistently work.

Carolyn Myss had a consistent model that appeared to work, but she gave up as a practicing medical intuitive out of frustration with many clients that refused to make the emotional and energetic changes required to heal their illnesses.

Recently, another form of teaching has crossed my path, that appears to correlate with all of the aforementioned approaches. This teaching is a type of Shamanic practice, drawn from indigenous peoples in South America. The core Shamanic belief and practice is really universal among most indigenous people around the world, but has died out and been mostly lost in many cultures due to assimilation with modern culture.

The common core principal, which I find in the many disparate teachings that I mentioned, is that physical reality is but a projection from a deeper, sponsoring level of reality. The term for this underlying, originating reality is Spirit or Consciousness. Humans are Spirit incarnated in physical bodies. Our ego-based minds are generally unaware of the higher levels of reality. We think everything happens based on things we interact with our 5 senses. The truth is, we are effect rather than cause. Ascending into 5D reality means dealing more with the cause than the effect.

Shamanic tradition teaches that our etheric field is the base structure from which everything physical is projected. Initiates learn to leave our ego-based perceptions behind and journey into the world of Spirit, where lasting changes can be made that affects our physical lives.

I don't know whether Dolores Cannon's description of the New Earth is going to come to fruition, but I am convinced that I can see a path that leads me in that general direction. This is really the point that I am trying to make here. I feel very good about following this path. The energetic changes going on around me and to me seem to make more sense now. Hopefully the reader will find this helpful as well.

ENTERING 5D REALITY

Mystics have been talking about the "shift" and ascension to a higher dimensional vibration for many years. The topic was popular during the 80's and 90's as we neared the millennial marker, and then really took off as we closed in on the supposed end-date of 2012.

2012 came and went without any fireworks, and some assumed it was all hype. Mystics that are sensitive to energy knew differently. First wave lightworkers, such as Denise Le Fay, wrote extensively about the various phases and levels of shifting that she experienced.

Hypnotherapist Dolores Cannon gathered a great deal of information about the plan to migrate Earth from 3D to 5D. She was told that Earth is destined to split into two paths, with a 3D version continuing on for the sake of the souls that are not ready to make the shift. Dolores agonized over the mechanics of how that could happen - would a sizable chunk of the population suddenly notice that many have vanished?

We are about to discover exactly how the mechanism works, for it appears we are in the midst of it now.

Personally, I feel that we won't be seeing anything as dramatic as large groups disappearing, at least not for a while. The fact is, 5D reality has been slowly taking form for several years, as sensitives are well aware.

The dramatic thing we are starting to see now is the collapse of the 3D energy grid, beginning almost like clockwork as Saturn and Pluto did their thing in Capricorn on January 12. The covid-19 virus pandemic is being employed as a trigger.

I won't pontificate at length on the energetic aspects of the virus; there will be time to analyze that in retrospect. I do suspect that the immediate crisis will begin to peak and ease sooner than official projections, but that's not the primary topic here.

What we need to discuss is the collapse of 3D energy grids that is being triggered by the virus. Even more importantly, we need to wrap our heads around the concept of the 5D reality that is emerging.

No matter how you slice it, life will never be the same as it was prior to January 2020. The effort to contain the virus also nuked the economy. Millions of jobs are virtually disappearing in a quick flash.

Our country has endured recessions and depressions, and recovered. The oncoming depression will sorely test the government's ability to meet the needs of the population.

It's a very grim and sad scenario, but it's important to remember that our system has become extremely corrupt. We have been experiencing "runaway inequality" that some economists foresaw as a surefire prescription for a crash and depression at some point. Being the epitome of decaying 3D reality, our political and economic structures have been ripe for replacement for a long time. It sure didn't take a simple virus long to begin the tear-down process.

So what does the future hold? I'm not making predictions, only stating that anyone who is spiritual and sensitive enough to perceive these things needs to start focusing on the creative 5D process. A new political and economic system is going to be birthed at some point, starting now.

How soon until we can see it with our eyes? What will it look like? This is what I am trying to wrap my head around.

I've been asking my own guides what 5D means, and was surprised to learn something new: 5D reality has been popping up in my own personal reality for around 10 years. My wife and I have come to accept strange things as routine, events that defy classical physics. Powerful magic seems to exist within several of our pets. I've written about some of these things, but never connected the dots before as to what it means.

It may take a long time to build a new, equitable economy, so I wonder how we are supposed to survive in the meantime if the economy totally craters. The answer appears to consist of several things; If enough people respond to the incredible positive energy sweeping in, we will start sharing and taking care of each other. As the central government becomes broken and obsolete, decentralized power structures will appear that are geared toward helping each other. Also, as I have seen in my own personal reality, physical resources can spontaneously appear when needed.

It's not so scary if we keep our focus on the wonderful energies pouring in. On April 3, Venus conjoins with Alcyone in the Pleiades cluster. This could open a portal to even more bountiful energies. There is a lot to be excited about.

Operation "Eliminate Fear"

When the reality began to sink in as to the gravity of the virus crisis, I'll admit to having my share of fear and panic. The thought of civilization breaking down into something unrecognizable flirted with me. As one that believes firmly that we all have profound purpose for being here, I found myself wondering how it could fit into anyone's life plan to face the dual threat of illness and economic collapse.

Then I was struck with the realization that fear was by far the biggest problem associated with this crisis. Fear is the force that strips store shelves of essentials, and it may have even caused the government to overreact in dealing with the virus.

In one moment, I decided that I had to find a way of eliminating my own fear, and not through playing mind games based on denial. As a spiritual person, I expect that the ascended guides and masters that watch over us are aware of the problems we are facing. We are not alone in our struggles.

I also don't find a general blind faith that "everything will work out" to be adequate. I decided that my approach would be to shift my focus from my ego mind to my Higher Self (soul) and try to obtain maximum information and guidance from spirit.

Fear is the natural result when the ego mind feels overwhelmed with problems that it feels powerless to deal with. The ego does a fine job of dealing with daily details and organizing our lives, and for that I am grateful. However, dealing with pandemics is not part of the skill set that most humans are born with.

I made the following assumptions: My Higher Self is a powerful being, connected to Source. My Higher Self was probably aware of the likelihood of a crisis occurring like the present one. My Higher Self is anticipating the unfolding Shift and stands ready to navigate through these turbulent waters.

There is the strong possibility that the virus crisis is actually part of the Shift, in the sense that the old 3D energy grid structure is decaying and needs to be replaced at some point with the new 5D grids. The virus itself could be the result of an underlying thought form, which personifies the collective fear that needs to be purged from humanity.

The part that really matters is the fact that intense, positive energy is streaming to earth right now in at least equal measure to the fear and chaos. While there are no guarantees that enlightened people can wave their collective magic wands and make the virus disappear, the fact is that something new and wonderful and positive is being built in our very midst.

I made the firm intention to replace all thoughts of fear with a sense of wonderment and adventure. There are many tools at our disposal to hear from Spirit, and by aligning our vibrations with the new energies, we stand an excellent chance of surviving and even thriving.

The virus essentially asks of us to make a choice of whether to align with the chaotic fear energy, or the higher consciousness that is streaming in. This isn't cover your eyes and plug your ears denial; it is only prudent to take whatever protective measures that you can. Focusing on worst case scenarios rather than optimistic outcomes does nothing to improve your safety, and may actually weaken your immune system.

On April 3rd, Venus conjoins with Alcyone in the Pleiades cluster. Mystics sense this is a very beneficent alignment, portending an even greater outpouring of positive energy. This could well mark the turning point of the pandemic, and chances seem reasonable that all the quarantines and lockdowns will have the intended effect of reducing the infection rate.

What lies beyond? The world economy has suffered the equivalent of a nuclear strike. Life will probably not be the same again, but perhaps that's a good thing. Greed and corruption have been a pandemic of their own, and it was only a matter of time before something triggered a reset.

Once I began this new train of thought, I felt immediately bathed with love and reassurance from above. It felt quite energizing, and I'm able to digest the daily news with much more detachment. As a veteran worry-wart, this is really an amazing development to behold.

If enough people respond to the new energies streaming in, we could reach a critical mass where positive changes begin to take hold. It's an exciting time to be alive.

One Foot In Atlantis - How The New Reality Works

One Foot Planted Firmly on the Ground...And One Foot in Atlantis

In the world as we have known it, most live out their lives and die without ever knowing why they were here.

Religions have arisen to attempt an explanation of life and to try giving it some meaning. While a few contemplative seers sometimes developed insight into the underlying reality, for the most part it has been the blind leading the blind.

Secular Humanism has made a valiant attempt to develop a philosophy of life that contains meaning and encourages humans to reach their highest potential. The Age of Enlightenment featured the best and brightest minds contributing to art, culture, science, and government. It has been a remarkable achievement, considering the depths of the preceding Dark Ages, and considering that the extent of human existence was thought to be limited to 5-sense physical reality.

Our civilization is not the first. Others have risen and fallen, leaving very little trace. The unfortunate fact appears to be that each civilization reached an apex and then declined until a "reset" was needed.

In trailblazing hypnotherapist Dolores Cannon's "Convoluted Universe" series, she includes a session with a client that recalled under hypnosis his role as a celestial being whose job it is to push the "reset" button when civilizations have decayed to the point of needing it. In the session with Dolores, he expressed anger that he finds himself incarnated here once again. He had thought we had collectively learned our lesson though the many times it had happened before. There was apparently strong expectation  on the part of the Ascended Masters that this time could be different.

Dolores Cannon collected information from sessions with thousands of clients. She often found that many of them were not coming to her simply to get answers about their own issues and past lives; some went into deeper trance where authoritative voices came through to deliver messages concerning events on Earth. A clear theme emerged that the Ascended Masters really wanted to have things turn out differently for Earth this time around. The plan is to avoid destruction by raising the collective consciousness of humanity. Dolores began referring to this as "The New Earth". She speculated as to how the actual logistics would be carried out, and what would happen to the "Old Earth" and the portion of humanity that is not ready for ascension.

I don't presume to have any clues as to the actual mechanics of ascension. Brighter minds than mine are grappling with the problem. What I have developed is a personal vision of how life can be approached if one assumes that the limitations we were previously governed by were removed.

My cosmology is based on the understanding that the universe consists of a singular consciousness, and that consciousness is the underlying cause and substance of everything. The physical universe was created by thought, and exists as only one layer among many other layers of existence.

We are all primarily souls, existing in a higher spiritual dimension. Incarnation as humans is done because spirit finds it to be a valuable experience. As humans, we forget our spiritual origins and buy into a physical reality that is quite limited in contrast to our true natures. It generally works out OK that way, as the soul is usually able to accomplish its lessons and goals for each life, and then return to spirit to consolidate and review the experiences. This is true regardless of the spiritual awareness achieved by the individual; whether saint or sinner, Muslim, Hindu or atheist - none of that has any bearing on how the soul measures its progress. Any presumptive beliefs we may have about our existence are irrelevant once we return to our home dimension.

Until now, we generally lived our lives as best as possible, while subject to many limitations. Our understanding of who we really are was limited, and since we didn't know why we are here, we couldn't see a "bigger picture" that could be helpful in charting our course.

From the moment a baby is born, the primary experience is one of fear and deprivation. The warm environment of the womb is replace with a cold world where we may or may not have  adequate resources. The parents try their best to surround baby with warmth and love, but the theme of life will soon be established as a struggle between love and fear. The developing human soon learns that lack and deprivation are the norm, and abundance is only gained through hard work, good luck, and sometimes coercion of others. The derivatives of fear become envy, hatred, dishonesty, violence and cruelty. On a larger scale, this leads to war and economic systems that exploit the majority for the benefit of the few.

The human living in the physical world has no tools to see things any differently or rise above limitations. But what if a greater understanding could be achieved? What if we could visualize a model of our reality where physicality exists as a substrate floating upon a sea of energy? What if we could become aware that everything about our physical existence is determined by sponsoring energetic thoughts?

I have painted a brief picture of the "One foot planted firmly on earth". Next we will examine the "One foot in Atlantis" aspect.

My vision is based on the assumption that limitations are arbitrary and can be pushed back a great deal. My approach is to visualize the energetic forces that form the backbone of our physical existence. By understanding how we got here, we can began to see how to change and redesign our reality.

As to why one foot needs to be on earth...as souls, we already know how to create anything we desire, instantly. It's an understatement to point out that souls generally are quite relieved to return to their spiritual roots after each life on earth ends. On that plane, there is no suffering or lack of any kind, and everything is bathed in unconditional love.

But...for now, we are here. My point is, that's a good thing. There is good purpose in our coming here. Some of us become very discouraged and are thoroughly miserable, but it's equally possible to remember the joy we naturally possess. It's important that we want to be here.

The premise is...life is unquestionably great if you are a spirit living on The Other Side...but what if we could transfer more of that love and joy down to earth while we are still here? What if we could become channels, and let the unlimited source of energy flow through us?

It seems to me that there must have been an original purpose in human existence that has been subsequently lost. Perhaps earlier civilizations embodied more of this. Perhaps Atlantis was one of them, although it eventually decayed in other ways that led to destruction.

This is my challenge: What if we pushed back our sense of limitations, and keep pushing until something convinces us to stop. What if we forged active connections with spirit, and channeled unconditional love and creative energy into our own lives and immediate surroundings? Who knows what we could create?
Later we'll get into more details of what this could look like.

Are you in?
