Dear Johanna

I was going to write about waves of energy, and how they ebb and flow in our lives….then I read your post. There are times as you say when we need to withdraw into our own silence.

The ebbs are when we need to retreat, and slow down. They allow us to reflect, and address those aspects of self that are in need of healing. This process can take days, weeks or even months to heal, but all the while we are in this quiet state it allows for stillness, and connection to our deeper truths…. our God.

The outward flow of energy (when we can move forward) is positive, and re- energising, and allows new to come into our lives. This is when we begin to feel uplifted, and full of enthusiasm. So, if we go with the flow of these inner and outer energies (and not resist), we will find that our inner pathway will unfold naturally.

Glad to see you back on the forum again Johanna.

Blessings Jeannie

Hello dear readers -

If you have been following my postings on Wednesdays with Johanna and Walking with Johanna, then you will be familiar with the journey I have been on to 'be' authentic and to live a life which reflects more of who I AM within me.

As a result, I no longer work a full time job and have made radical changes as to how I engage with time each day.

Living in each “Open Moment” takes some time to adjust to. The most challenging aspect is allowing my self to “be” in the moment without an agenda. No ‘to do’ lists, just waiting for God to direct my next move.

(How do I know it is my next move? Often I do not, I just follow my heart and then suddenly I am writing this post to you dear readers.)

The other challenging aspect of seeking to live authentically is to disengage from drama’s (conflict). How rare it is to find on my daily walk, human beings having spiritual experiences from their hearts. Now I can hear some readers of this entry thinking, “how judgmental!” Hmmm…. Am I? Or can you hold that I am making an observation about daily interactions many have with strangers and more often than not, in this techno age, with those we love.

Another challenging aspect of living in the “Open Moment” for me has to do with letting go of what I ‘should’ be doing rather than allowing my self to just be. However that looks. “Heresy!” I hear the voices clamour… “If you are silent, quiet, if you are not ‘doing’, if you are not productive, than you are , hmmm… slacker, lazy, sitting on your couch eating bonbons, a taker, et. al, ad nauseum.

As events are radically changing in our society and the ways in which we collectively care for one another are being dismantled, there will be many in my position, some are here now… not by choice like myself who had a “job” which I walked away from because of how it was affecting my life – these bredren and sistren mostly through no fault of their own, are being laid off and others, are watching their jobs being sent overseas.

This is what I can tell those who are going into a phase of their lives where they have experiences where there is no job, where they feel no hope, where there is no money nor food, experiences where there is a loss of housing, everything they thought they cherished is disappearing…

I have been were you are.

I have lived homeless. I have lived in my car, in a tent, in a van, in parking lots, libraries, during snowstorms, rainstorms, heat waves and all manner of climate and difficulty – and by the Grace of God, I survived. I know poverty, hunger, loneliness, depression, suicidal thoughts and hopelessness and the shame of being shamed by those who do not understand what it is like to be homeless and poor. These experiences did not just last for months, they went on for years. The experiences at times were psychologically devastating, and I went through the gamut of emotions such as depression, loneliness, hunger, shame, fear, and the trauma of being chased in the night by those who found me sleeping in my car amongst many other deeply emotional experiences.

Were it not for the love and kindness of my sistren and bredren, I would not have made it through. By making this choice to live in the moment and letting go of ‘job security’ I am once again allowing myself to open to any possibility which may come towards me.

What is different this time is that I know I will survive. I know that in the “Open Moment” – God will be there. God will find a way, if I open my heart and trust; God will be in that moment to guide me… in every open moment God will be there.

All Blessings to those who are hungry, lonely, depressed, mentally ill, homeless, suicidal and hopeless. You are seen. You are loved. You are not forgotten.

In solidarity and love,
your planetary sister.
Johanna

There are times when we, the energetically sensitive, are called upon to help in the process of the transmutation of dark energies releasing from individual and planetary consciousness'.

For those of us who have gone through this experience of planetary purification, there is a point in the process when all we can feel is the darkness we are "containing". (See link below).

I was in that place today. My mental and emotional bodies were so saturated with dense energies, the "I" in InI could not feel God for anything. All I could perceive and feel in my body and mind was the dark dense energies engulfing me.

I was blessed to be able to sit with Beloved Julie today (as I have been in the past when I went through this experience of energetic saturation), and she gave this Mantra to me: "Cling to the Presence of God within you."

This Teaching - Mantra, has struck a particular cord in me. For when I am doing this work there are times when I can no longer feel God in the presence of the engulfing darkness. All I can feel are all the other times I have been in this place - in the presence of the darkness - and the low vibrational repetitive messages I perceive which are: "This experience will never end, God is not with me".

As the hours passed this afternoon I began to have a vision of myself clinging to a piece of wood in a dark sea after a turbulent storm… I realized that the piece of wood keeping me afloat and alive, was indeed God.

I am sure in time this analogy will change and expand. Right now, I am grateful to be held and floating.

I share this with you dear readers, in the hopes that if you find your self in deep pain, despair, depression, shame, guilt, or any other low density energy, that you too will "Cling to the Presence of God within yourself" until the energies are released or pass through you.

with love,
Johanna

P.S. - I am aware of many the clearing techniques and aides available. The scope of my work makes them for me, ineffective.

Hello dear readers.

The energies of contraction have been at the core of my daily experiences lately.

Within my heart and my mind, there is so much I long to 'do' - and within the external reality in which I 'live' - I have been powerless to do much on a daily basis, except for feeling the energies of contraction - an experience I can only explain as feeling constricted within walls of darkness.

As this is a time of 'waiting' for the energies to shift and trusting in God's Timing, it can be at times, difficult to remember the truth of who I am and why I am going through this process. There are moments where the contraction is so painful it is easy for my mind to give in to the energies of negation, doubt, and when the enrages of contraction are at their most constrictive, anger.





Whilst I am aware of moments of complicity and alignment with the darkness in my mind, my heart continues to stay faithful. It seems the energies of negation are manifesting most easily in the places within me that wish after these many years of spiritual practice and Teachings, that I could engage with the purification symptoms of my spiritual choices in a more humble way, be it that, humility and perfect trust, but alas, I am not there and that is living authentically - the courage to accept who I am - where I am at.





And so, the journey continues with the energies of contraction seemingly sending perpetual messages of 'no'… I am, until the energies shift, sending you my love and best wishes until we meet again.

A BLESSED oneLOVE DAY

GOD'S TIMING:
http://lightomega.org/Ind/Pure/Gods-Timing.html

"God’s timing reveals perfection – the perfect unfoldment of the maximum forward movement of healing, expansion, love, relationship, financial stability, etc. - all areas of human experience and spiritual experience in which waiting may be necessary.

Yet, the task of learning to wait is a complex one for most embodied souls, for it involves a depth of trust in the reality of Divine perfection and Divine love which assures that the best possible outcome will occur if one does not rush things or take things into one’s own hands prematurely, but waits for Divine will to manifest."


ENERGIES OF NEGATION:


Energies of negation can cast doubt on the understanding and knowing and even on the experience that God is real. The experience, not emanating from the mind, but from the heart and from the spiritual senses, can be undermined by efforts of such energies to dismantle the credibility of spiritual senses. They seek to discredit these and to apply only the system of rational belief based on proof to the whole area of human experience. In this way, they seek to keep human consciousness within a closed circle of perception in which only what is visible and provable is perceived to be real, and all that falls outside of that is deemed to be unreal or at least to be severely in doubt. In this way has the interpretation of human experience moved from immersion in the sacred to a deterioration of sacred values and perceptions which has reduced human perception to but a fraction of what it could be.

Praying with you, Dearest Johanna.

All love and blessings,
Meg
