My Beloved Friends,

It's been a tough week, hasn't it? A tough week, with lots of highs and lows, especially in your physical and emotional bodies.

Many of you exerted yourselves physically, often to the point of exhaustion, or were already too tired to do much of anything. And following or accompanying your physical depletion, you may have felt the need to withdraw emotionally – feeling reclusive, dispassionate, depressed, or even on the verge of tears.

The immense amount of energy running through your emotional and physical bodies lately is related to many years of intense spiritual work you have been doing.

Specifically, I am referring to the work you call "shifting consciousness". This is what you've individually and collectively undertaken. And it has caused tremendous energetic changes in your body, mind, and emotional makeup.

The "felt" or perceived intensity of these changes has been building up steadily for you in the last few months, especially considering the stillness, low physical activity, and stagnation that many of you were experiencing near the end of last year.

The Energetic Tornado

So, what has happened in recent days?

The answer is that energy has moved. Stuck energy has been enabled to move.

For some of you, this experience was like popping the cork from a champagne bottle. Everything under pressure was suddenly released, and the contents of the bottle forcibly ejected.

Others might have felt a tornado ripping through their lives, dislodging everything in its path, violently sucking up debris and siphoning it away to some distant, unnamed place. It is exactly this intensity that you felt.

You might say that on an energetic level you've finished "cleaning house". This was a project you began about two months ago.

In the past two months, old energetic templates that no longer served you were given a final loosening, and then swept away by this typhoon. These included emotional patterns that chained you to cycles of drama, conflicting beliefs that confused your mind, and accumulated toxins that poisoned your body.

You perceived this energetic flushing or cleansing in variable ways. There may have been moments in which you felt a large increase in your energy and were able to do many things physically. But at other times you may have had little energetic support in the body, felt unexplainably tired, and hardly been able to move a muscle. Sleeping patterns were affected as well.

As you perceived this cleansing process in your energetic fields, you might have stopped and wondered:

"What's going on with me?"

"Am I losing the remaining energy I had to do anything?"

"Will I ever be able to enjoy my body like I once did?"

And finally, there may have been one other question you asked yourself, one that is seldom welcomed into the mind.

"Am I dying?"

Yes, in some cases, the purging of these old energetic templates was so intense that you may have questioned whether you were physically and emotionally approaching death. This may have worried you temporarily, but soon you realized what was happening, agreed to stop resisting, and allowed your experiences to unfold in their own way.

In summary, what you did in recent days was allow a Great Cleansing of your "denser" energy fields – the physical, emotional, and mental bodies. You permitted this in order to achieve a greater alignment with your subtle energy fields, the sources of your Higher Thoughts, Deeper Feelings, and Purposeful Knowing.

This most recent adjustment was needed to permit the New You – the Golden, Vibrant You – to freely emerge and begin expressing itself in your physicality.

After the Storm

What is happening now? Do you have words, images, or feelings that might describe it?

To understand what is going on now, ask yourself how it feels to successfully pass through an ordeal that challenges you physically, emotionally, mentally, and psychologically.

For some, there can be a mixture of sentiments – a sense of completion, an inability to fully grasp what has occurred, and exhaustion.

Imagine that you have just given birth to a child or scaled a lofty, mountain peak. The event has been consumed. However, you're so tired that you have no energy left in your body to fully express the joy, relief, happiness, or sense of accomplishment that you feel. The experience lies within you, of course, but it is latent – something to be actualized later.

On a psychological level your identity has also changed. Your consciousness has expanded. You are no longer the person you were before the ordeal began. You are now a mother, or a mountaineer. Given these considerations, it may take some hours, days, or even weeks to recover your strength and adjust to these realizations.

It is the same for many of you now in your spiritual evolution.

Convalescence

Please understand that you are birthing the New You, that you are scaling New Heights of Awareness.

The energetic alignments associated with expanding your consciousness in this way can leave you feeling quite depleted. Do not be discouraged when you alternate between heightened activity and subsequent fatigue – when you experience this energetic flux.

Does the expectant mother exert herself continually, throughout the delivery of her child?

No, she rides the waves of her uterine contractions. She pushes, when it is time to push – and rests, when her contractions subside.

The mountain climber does the same. He ascends for some distance when he feels his energy rising. But rests when his steps become heavy, and his breathing labored.

My friends, you have been through just such a period of energetic activity. You have accomplished much, but now you are tired. In a week or two, you will fully recognize what you have done.

You will recognize that you have been birthing the New You. That you have been scaling New Heights of Consciousness.

And soon you will begin to feel the joys of your labor.

For now, allow yourself rest. It's time to convalesce. Be active, only when you feel that you need to put your energies into something. Just don't overdo it.

Take time to breathe. Have simple experiences – a nice meal, a short walk, and good conversation with someone close. Do these things to the point of joy, but don't overdo them. Be aware when it is time for you to go within, and be in silence again.

Whether you birth a child or ascend a distant summit, it is a very intense experience. It changes you physically, emotionally, mentally, and psychologically.

It changes your whole life.

Remember that you find yourselves now in a similar position. You are embodying a New Life, birthing the New You.

And soon you will move on from the birth experience.

Know that you will create New Relationships, inaugurate New Societies, and establish New World Templates that are built upon your daily practice of personal sovereignty, loving kindness, will to goodness, and Unity Awareness.

Rest assured, you have chosen this. You have prepared the way, and this New Way will reveal itself to you soon.

Build Up to the March 21st Equinox

On March 21st, the vernal equinox in the Northern Hemisphere and the autumnal equinox in the Southern Hemisphere will coincide with the celebration of Easter in some parts of the world. This event is building a consciousness that is shifting the whole planet.

Energies entering the Earth at this time will be aligned with cosmic changes in the Universe. When you look at your own experiences, you can see the alignment of your personal energies with the events that are coming.

The period approximately two weeks before the March 21st equinox will allow you to anchor energies of Renewal and New Birth in your bodies.

At the same time, you will be ushering in major changes in the Old World you see around you. These alterations will be energized by the coming equinox. In the times following, you will see accelerated changes in national political situations, international foreign policy, global economics, education, psychotherapy, medicine, and the development of alternative sources of energy for the planet, just to name a few.

As this happens, as this quickening begins, stay grounded in what you know to be True.

When you see these changes occurring, remember to hold a Higher Vision for the New Earth you wish to inhabit.

Allow your consciousness to support a New Expression and Higher Resolution for everything you see taking place.

And please, don't lapse into fear, worry, or morbid curiosity about the things you see happening in the world around you! There is nothing to discuss. Stay focused.

Fascination with melodrama is so unbecoming of you – especially considering all you've done to advance yourselves in love, consciousness, and compassionate discernment.

It is important not to get agitated along with the masses. Just stay calm and centered.

Be a standard, not a stand-in. This offers the finest opportunity for good to manifest as these changes arrive. (A stand-in substitutes for a film actor during the preparation of lighting, cameras, audio, etc.)

Please remember that you are not here to change the world by judging or dramatizing events around you, but by expressing the Living Example of your life.

As you align your will, thoughts, feelings, and actions with the intention that the Highest Good Be Done For All, then you will assist many in bringing in the New World.

Therefore, stay centered in your own lives, and express – to the best of your ability – your Deeper Thoughts and Feelings. Know that by doing this you will help manifest a New Blueprint for Living.

In the coming days, you will see the Old World overwhelmed by its heavily laden consciousness. It is possible that many may panic or feel suffocated. In these moments your Presence – the brilliance of the New You – will be like a beacon of light for those who are willing to shift into the New Awareness.

Please remember that a sovereign being, like you, always recognizes the God in others, and only offers the Highest Good To All Concerned. You don't even have to know what this is in the moment it is asked of you. Your loving intention to do so will be enough. (As you probably already know, when you think about it too much or start theorizing about it, you only get in your own way.)

So, it's not about being superior in any way. It's not about knowing more than any one else. It's not about preaching. It's simply about being grounded and offering that support to others.

Remember to check yourself for integrity in all situations; and instruct others by the example of your life, not by idle words.

Own this, and begin your New Life.

I think that's it for now!

I Am, Saint-Germain
