Jennifer Channeling Lao Tzu, June 19th, 2026
Jennifer:
So, okay, I’m really intrigued with the application of Balance in everyday life, and I think I understand it, and I love it, and I use it, and sometimes stuff gets out of balance, but then I get back into balance.
So, what about a situation where you have a tendency to just plain carry too much, try to balance too much, try to juggle too much… Am I jumping ahead and trying to be multidimensional when in fact I’m just struggling and fearful of dropping? I’ve got all these eggs in there (let’s try another metaphor) and I’m afraid of dropping any of them! It’s really hard to even set them down. They all seem really important to me. I’m trying to keep them all in balance, but it’s honestly too much. It would be really good if I just went back to one, sometime, and I don’t know how to, how to do that. So there’s where I’m seeking some guidance from Master Lao Tzu, if you would like to channel with me?
…I’m getting an image of two chopsticks crossing a river… [thanks to AI for the digital image].
Master Lao Tzu
Lao Tzu: Greetings, this is Lao Tzu. I am pleased to be invited into your presence on this day. This is not completely unfamiliar to you, Jennifer, although you think it is. It is just that you have been for many years glued to your impression that the Masters of the West were the ones you were closest to. In the story of your many lives, there has been a balance between East and West, between North and South, between this world and other worlds.
You are well acquainted with the concept of balance. It always intrigued you as a child. You were interested in ballet which is greatly dependent on balance, and other forms of activity. This is the human challenge when in the body and you are, while a multi-dimensional being, definitely committed to your physical experience and expression at this time, for many reasons.
One of those is to to master balance in the physical, and part of that is what you are forgetting: emotional balance, mental balance, physical balance, of course, which is the literal level, and spiritual balance. You are, you are attempting to bring into your daily life an ascended perspective, which you are not practiced in, and you are also trying to control it.
So, what is happening is… you, ultimately, are balancing a multitude of things in any instant, and a part of you knows this, and you are seeking to align with that part of you, but the human part is going, “Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, that’s not going to work,” and you do not wish to embarrass yourself by falling flat on your face. Or -and this is another one of your terrors- letting anyone else down.
What you are sensing is the natural flow of things at a higher speed, and you are applying this seeing into a space where there is still a great deal of resistance, because all of the practical wisdom you’ve received in your life [says] that you have a tendency to do “too much”, you have a tendency to try to accomplish more than is comfortable, you have some beliefs around this, you have some experience around this, and certainly some wisdom. And so it continues to surface for you, to recur and to confront you.
What are you going to believe now, if you are interested in a path of ease, a path of balance? Because, being in a state of balance is most comfortable, truly. Then you will want to feel into each choice, into each day, and to also feel into the love that you have for yourself, which you would extend to another who lost their balance temporarily or many times in a day.
Would you be loving and understanding, or would you be critical and harsh? Think how you would practice this on yourself, would you be loving and understanding, or would you be harsh and critical? Which is the higher vibration? This is always your choice. You will realize there are times when you are playing in a lower vibration again. Would this be an opportunity to beat yourself? You see, it is clear.
This is just “what is,” this is just the momentary experience. This is just the contrast, because you do live in a physical world, and there is much contrast present to guide you, to show you the way forward.
You can always – and you have already begun to do this – you can always ask for greater ease, ask for greater comfort, ask for greater calm, whenever you notice that you’re in some discomfort, or you’re in some “choppy waters”, as you like to say,.
So this is Balance: to see yourself as a living being making choice, moment by moment, for the most graceful path forward.
And you are capable of this. You are each of you capable of this. You, Jennifer, are just apt to run along ahead and try to do it before anyone else, or to fuss about it if you deem yourself incapable yet.
Be kind to yourself, see yourself as that little child who wants the validation or… who wants the experience of being able to test your abilities and succeed. Realize that this can be done privately to great effect, though, of course, your brothers and sisters will often give you feedback, and that is especially true for your biological brothers and sisters! [LOL] Yes, they will often give you feedback for when you are out of balance. This is most useful.
All of this learning is most helpful. So proceed, proceed, be kind to yourself, be gentle, ask for the gentleness, ask for the reminder of how to balance in your kindness, how to carry kindness. Replace all of those sticks of sugar cane [the burden on the little burro] with gentle elements, lightweight elements. And when you notice things are a little harsh or a little difficult – you will notice – then shed a few of those, save them for later.
We’ve been most pleased to have these moments with you, and most grateful for your willingness to continue to grow. We will be watching and encouraging from our space of greater grace. With much love, I say farewell.
Jennifer: Thank you, Uncle Lao Lao (grin).

[This is the third in a series of six messages related to the Infinity Keys, the pairing of the Keys to Self with the Keys to Heaven, which will be the subject of a series of workshops to begin 29 Aug 2026. Stay tuned for upcoming announcements. — Rob]
Rob: So this is the continuation of the series of going through the pairings of the Infinity Keys. This one would be on Humility and Unity to overcome any sense of separation. I know it seems kind of obvious, but I think this has got to be Mother Mary.
So, Mary, do you have anything to share today with respect to the Infinity Keys?
Mother Mary: Greetings, all. Yes, this is your mother, Mare, come to talk to you ultimately about unity. If I had to put my finger on one concept that would have the greatest impact on humanity’s ability to make the shift to the next level, it would be to adopt, to accept the idea, the reality of Unity Consciousness, that we are all one. Yes, it seems in life these days, but it is true that it is actually the hallmark of virtually the entirety of human history, certainly so for the last couple thousand years.
The feelings of separation, it is a false belief, [where] people, one group, feeling that they are somehow different than another, that they are separate from another. And this, of course, gives rise to any number of expressions of negativity. It seems there is no consequences if somebody is other than you, separate from you, different than you, then it is okay to harbor feelings that are less than positive. You treat them as different, but the reality is there is no such thing. It cannot be.
You overcome this sense of separation, feeling that you are somehow separated from all that you see, [where] everything that you witness outside of you feels separate from you, [by realizing], in reality, it is simply an expression of what is within you. It is there because you have put it there, because you have designed your life to give you that experience of whatever it is that you see there.
So, the third dimensional system is set up to make you believe that you are separate from all, from THE ALL, and, in fact, that is the primary point of having the experiences in this physical realm, that you are somehow separated from your Source. As we have said, this is an impossibility. There is no such thing as being separated from Source.
Everything that you witness, everything that you see, all that you can touch and feel was manifest through the same energy that gave rise to you. You and that are the same energy, are the same expression of divine creation. You may have chosen what it is that you want to experience, but it is all the same, the same as you. You and it are of the same substance, therefore, as we expressed last time, you are connected to that.
You are the same as that, through the sense of humility within yourself, that is, that you are no better than anyone else, but by the same token, you are no less than anyone else or anything else. Given that you were created from THAT same power, the universal power that gives rise to ALL physical expression, you have the full power of the entirety of the universe within you at all times.
So through yourself, your own beliefs and that sense of humility, you find that expression of Unity Consciousness. You come to understand that you are the same as all other, therefore, any contention that you have with another is simply an expression of a contention within yourself.
Return that to balance, the balance of yourself and through your humility with the All, through that sense of Unity Consciousness, and all such conflicts begin to break down. They, in fact, go away, for there is no point of fighting, ultimately, with yourself. There is no winner there. There is no loser there. It is simply an experience you are choosing to have.
Note: lately I was told, in no uncertain terms, to take some time off (see AA Gabrielle’s message below)… that is very hard for me to do, but i took two nights and a day this week… went to the beach and lay down for a couple of hours… It was hugely restorative. I will be doing more of that this summer… and I hope you will, too.
Rest, recharge, restore your peace, your strength, your optimism and your ability to be so present for others & our beautiful planet… Love, Jen
Channeling AA Gabriel, June 5, 2026
Jen: I’m just sitting in my heart feeling the infinity loops twirling back and forth, side to side, up and down, in and out, hither and yon, just centering. I would ask Gabriel, beloved, to sit with me and ease my heart about the experiences I’ve been having lately ~ the difficulties or obstacles, choppiness, just turbulence… even meditation is really difficult lately. Doors keep banging. I want to sink into a submersion bathtub chamber with heavy walls, [where I would] hear nothing.
AAG: This is Gabriel. You are ripe for a retreat.
This is exactly the experience you will remember from now on that indicates to you that you are ready for some quiet, some downtime, some space, some rest. You have been going 100 miles an hour for a very long time. It is fine to have a half a day of rest, [but] this is not enough at this point.
You need to take a few days off, walk by the ocean, dip your toes in the water, go up to your knees, jump in all the way -it does not matter- but you need time alone and time in the peace and harmony that is given to you for this nurturing of the energies as they are experienced within you. Then you, of course, see them outside of you.
So, working again from the outside to the inside, if you change what it is you’re experiencing, seeing, in your daily life for a few days, you will find that there is greater harmony within you. It is possible to work the equation from both directions.
Certainly, it is a guide to you that what you see without and around you is a reflection of what is within you, but also it is a useful mechanism for you to understand that if you change what is outside of you, that will often bring about that shift that you are looking for within you.
There will always be the press of life upon life. There will always be shared experiences, some of which are pleasant and some of which are annoying or irritating. You live in a crowded world with one another, on top of one another, we would say. Certainly surrounded by and with all of your personal desires to be connected with so many, you are naturally going to feel the interruptions and …it’s not always going to come at the right time, so you will sometimes feel irritated, or you will feel overwhelmed. There may be many claims upon your attention at the same time. You will have various other kinds of challenges.
We can tell you that in fact your internet is being an enormous group reflection of the chaos within, within humanity. You are all seeking clarity. You are all seeking the calm in the eye of the storm. And yes, it is a storm, sometimes a sunny one, but energetically you are in the midst of the storm.
There is debris flying around you. There are those things which get lodged within your own personal energy field, which are unwelcome. It is going to assist you, behoove you, help you, and ultimately heal you to remember that you have choices.
And if the circumstances in any given day are difficult, take at least a moment and reconnect with Mother Earth, reconnect with the representation of Divine Mother, which is most closely available to you in your environment. Put your feet upon the grass, put your toes in the water, put your fingers in the air. Allow your eyes to be bathed in the beauty of natural wonder.
Does this feel that it will be assisting to you?
Jen: Indeed, for sure.
AAG: So, what would prevent you from choosing this so clearly and directly?
Jen: Well, it seems that each day has more in it than I can possibly accomplish, so I am caught on a hamster wheel of my own making.
AAG: Yes, and it can be your unmaking as well, and you can unmake it. So dismantle it little by little. See it as not being made of metal, not being made of wood, not being made of anything solid, but being made instead of grass, being made instead of cobwebs, being made instead of light beams. See this wheel that you are playing upon- rather insistently- as being gossamer, gentle, fun.
And if you will remember to envision it differently, you will find that indeed it is changing substance, it is rising in vibration, and it will no longer trouble you. It may recur again, in which case, you remember: re-envision what you are experiencing. Tell yourself a new story. Describe your current experience in a new way, and it will follow.
Life will follow your creation, because your life is what you have created for yourself, and, you collectively have created for yourselves. So to the degree that you wish to participate within the collective creation, enjoy! If it is no longer enjoyable, now you know what to do.
Go within the quiet temple within your own heart, where all is peaceful and all is sweet, and when you are refreshed, emerge again, and it will be a new day. Great blessings to you, my dear, and to each one in your team of friends, soul friends, heart friends. Farewell for now.
[This is the second in a series of six messages related to the Infinity Keys, the pairing of the Keys to Self with the Keys to Heaven, which will be the subject of a series of workshops to begin 29 Aug 2026. Stay tuned for upcoming announcements. — Rob]
Rob: Okay, so I said I would do each one of these key pairs in turn, all six of them. This week we’re on to Hope and Connectedness, overcoming feelings of isolation. And so, I invite in Archangel Gabrielle. I see myself in my inner, sacred temple, and as I often see her, she is coming down from above, descending down in the golden light, to stand before me.
Thank you, Gabrielle. [Do you have] any words of wisdom to share?
AA Gabrielle: Greetings, Rob. Greetings, all. This is Gabrielle (or Gabriel, if you prefer), the Lily of Love, the Messenger of One.
It’s interesting, your conversation about the hierarchy, or lack thereof, and yet you see me come to you, descending from above. As you said, that is simply your own mental image of how I should come to you. At the end of the day, it’s not necessary, but I am honored that you think of me in this way, to make such an entrance. But understand, you, too, are part of that oneness and everything that I do, everything that I am capable of, you, too, have your own abilities, perhaps not fully expressed yet, but that does not mean they are not there. You just have not discovered them yet.
So your question, ultimately stemming from feelings of how the keys overcome feelings in some way of some imbalance, we applaud you for thinking your way through these. This one, in particular, the feelings of isolation, I think you understand by now that there is no such thing. This is a false belief, for you are never isolated. You can never be isolated. You are, in fact, part and parcel, an integral part of the One. The One is incomplete without you, for you are part of that. So, therefore, any feelings that you may have of isolation is simply your own interpretation, your own perception. It cannot be true. It IS not true.
So as you have discerned within your own model of the Infinity Keys, you can use the Key of Hope, that is, actually the knowing that there is a divine plan, and you are part of it. You cannot be NOT part of it, being at one with the One. That hope, that sense of hope deep within you that you know you are part of One, and there is a divine plan for you, that you are an integral part of that plan, holding to that sense of hope is what will help you to overcome any feelings, any temporary feelings, of a sense of isolation, ultimately to realize that you are, in fact, connected to All-That-Is.
Everything that you see, all that you witness, is part of the One. It finds its origin in the One, therefore it is all of the same creation. Therefore, it is all connected. You are connected to all of that. How can one feel any sense of isolation in knowing the breadth, the depth, of the connection that you have with everything?
Mother, Mary is playing with me. She’s showing me that, last but not least, she’s this little mouse that would like to speak.
Mother Mary:
Greetings, my Daughters, I am so pleased to sit together in this circle on this day in your lives as human women, each in your own beautiful, unique way, your own way to express your perspective, your values, your joys and your sorrows.
Each of you are a treasure to me, precious in my sight. Having lived among you long, long ago, I do remember the enjoyment of laughter and community, the sweetness of companionship, the comfort of coming together, wherever you are in your emotional state at any time, having a joyful day or having a difficult one, feeling peaceful or feeling grief, wherever you are. Wherever we are, know that we are available to one another.
Still, I am represented with a blue robe as a young woman, a pretty one, usually, yes, often blonde, which surprises me, but you see, it is your tradition of artistry that admired the lighter hair, and so I came to be represented as the lighter-haired woman in my time. I truly was a dark haired, a brown haired woman with red highlights. Yes, I had some highlights. And in the sun, of course, even brown hair sparkles with light, with the gold.
I am seen with the gold around my head, but my daughters, I want you to know, you too carry that gold. You sometimes cover it up with your hoodies, or you cover it for many, many years, but essentially it is a representation, a symbol of your connectedness to your Divine nature. Do not be afraid to be who you truly are. Be your entire physical self, and be your entire spiritual self, to the degree that you have discovered so far. Enjoy both. They blend together beautifully, and this is the new human, yes, and you may tell your brothers sisters, this is the new human.
You are a blend of the physical and the spiritual. And the spiritual is so much more fun than you thought. You, I think many of you, felt that you would have to squeeze yourself into a package that would be unbearably restrained for you to allow yourself to become a full spiritual expression in the physical world. Not so. Take all the space you want, let your light dim and grow. You have a dimmer switch. Go up and down. Be a night light, be a flashlight, be a great big lighthouse beacon, as you please, as the joy fills you.
Now I will take questions, because I know that you do enjoy so much that kind of interaction, and so do I. Would anyone have a question at this point? I can speak for all three of us— I would say— all three levels [Mother Mary, Mother Earth & Divine Mother].
I have answered all your questions already. I wonder how I knew? Oh, we do respect your privacy, but because you have an energetic field, your thoughts are not contained within the skull. Your thoughts are actually floating around here outside of your body. You sense them here [in the head]. You think they are contained here, and there is a wonderful mechanism there for thinking, but they’re actually floating around here [out from the body].
And since we have this Bubble Universe where we touch one another, we can see and know that you have wonderings and you have hesitations and you have worries.
Let me say that, in addition to hoping that the bath of white light the Divine Mother gave you will ease your physical, and spiritual, sense of tiredness, or depletion, from your long winter. We would also say that we are activating your energies to step forward in the excitement of who you are, to have a fulfilling life from this moment on, whether we never spoke again or not. We may, we may well speak again, but if not, know that we have, by choosing to be together with energies of our – may I say, modestly – magnitude, because that is what happens with energy. It grows in love. And yours [energies] are not tiny. Do not for a moment think of yourselves as the mouse, the inconsequential human, one among billions. Each of you are amazing.
Question #1:
So may I ask you, Mother Mary, why did you refer to yourself as a mouse, then, if you don’t want us to think of ourselves [as mice].
Mother Mary:
I was playing with you. I do embrace the mouse, as I embrace the lion, as I embrace the eagle, as I embrace the mountain and the ocean. Do you see? All expressions of life are precious to me. You are small in size relative to Mother Earth, however, you are not inconsequential. You are powerful.
This is difficult for many to accept the idea that you are powerful. You are powerful in a benevolent way, and you are powerful to create the kind of world that you want. So, if what you see outside of you is not what you want, we invite you to begin to envision and move toward and communicate, share -whether you are an artist or you are a writer or you are just a cousin speaking to another cousin, you see?
Begin to speak of your vision of what we are moving toward, which is the planetary home in a higher vibration for humanity and all beings in physicality who wish to be here. And there are many who do. An extinction, for example, will be where a particular set of beings has decided that they want to go a little more quickly, and they have already moved into a higher vibration.
You are now beginning that journey yourselves, and some of you are already playing a little bit in the fourth and fifth dimensions, sometimes you zoom up to the seventh. When you feel a great rush of joy and love, you are in the seventh dimension. It may not last for more than 20 minutes or an hour or two, but that is where you are. You see and you are capable, actually, of traversing all of the dimensions through the 12th.
Question #2:
Mother Mary. I’m just curious about how lately I’ve been feeling slightly dizzy, and I’m just curious if that’s a health related issue, or if it has to do with Ascension.
Mother Mary:
Yes, if it is uncomfortable to you and becomes severe, then look into it on the physical level. There may be something involved. There may not. It may just put your mind at ease.
What I would say, though, is that it is also very likely that it is happening because of the rapidity of the ascension process on the planet. At this time, there are many who are ascending in vibration from the third to the fourth, from the fourth to the fifth, and you have been walking this pathway for nearly 20 years, yourself, Kate, but lately, just lately, it is speeding up.
It is speeding up quite significantly. And there are some who are running up the stairs quickly to catch up. And there are others who are saying, “Finally, finally! Let’s go!” And there are others who are completely aware of this, but on the level of their dreams, on the level of their sleep time and their time with the spiritual teachers.
During dream time, you get lots of free play, lots of recess, I would say, so do not feel you are working too hard, but you have opportunities during your dream time, of course, to help the planet in different ways and to continue to learn.
We are seeing the expression of great infusions of light coming to the planet through the solar flares, solar ejections of energy. We would not limit God to the sun, but there was a reason why people looked up to the sun and began to see the solar deity, because it is a source of life, and all of life on your planet is dependent upon the light of the sun. But behind that sun there are layers and layers and layers of Beingness and and light, levels of light.
So there’s a reason why you are affected by the increase in light on your planet and in your part of the world, you are being very gently shielded at this time through the additional cloud cover and the additional rain. This is news to Jennifer as well. Her ears are flapping. [LOL] (Note: It was a very cloudy Spring.)
It is a intentional calibration effect. Because the population is rather large along the east coast, the area is being protected and gently, more gently moved into a higher frequency at this time. This will not last all summer, yes? But it is current for now, and rather than be downcast by it, which is natural, and some of you are very sensitive to weather and to the amount of solar light that you are receiving. There are ways to compensate for yourself, but just know that there is greater light and it is penetrating the clouds. But there is a cloud cover to assist in the gentle absorption of these which have the potential, if not gently received, to alarm people, agitate people, cause great discomfort. Is there anything else that you would like to ask before we conclude today?
Question #3:
I’m trying to think about how to phrase it. But how do we know the difference between when we should accept something as it is because it’s divine, or when our purpose may be to help change it?
Mother Mary:
Yes, there is great wisdom in this discernment. We would say, be guided by your heart. This is familiar to you. This is a true steering in the right direction. Be guided by your heart. Hold what is in your heart and ask, “Is there any part of this that I can assist with, to bring it to the highest possible expression of itself, to the most conscious vibration, to that which will be for the greater good of all?” That is an expression again, that you hear, that is intended to guide you into the direction which is most helpful, when you say, “for the greatest good of all”.
Yes, there are those things which will be changed, and much will still change, but it is not yours to do. So again, ask in your heart, “Is this mine? Is there something I can do? Is there something I can offer, in the person that I am, to assist with this?” and then just sit with it. If you do not receive an immediate validation for any idea of -Should I do this? Should I do that?- if you do not receive an immediate validation for a particular inspiration to do this or that, just know it’ll come to you while you’re sleeping. And you’ll feel clearer in the next morning.
Or you can also say, “I know I’ll get clearer in the next day or two or three, and I’ll just continue going, and it’ll come to me,” and it will come to you. Either it’ll drop down gently into your mind, and you’ll go, “Uh huh, yeah, I was kind of getting that. I should do that, because that’ll feel like I’m participating in moving our world forward.”
This [guidance] will come that way, or it will come in the form of something in the mail, a communication from a friend, something. But always proceed in the direction that feels best. Your feelings and your sense of what will be more constructive, helpful, loving, joyful or fun- this Is your guidance system. All right?
If you really just want to go to the bowling alley and have an ice cream cone, do that, you do not need to suffer to bring forward a higher vibration. And in fact, that is not very helpful.
We do see your heart. We see your desire to bring forward a higher vibration. But if it causes you suffering… we are not blessed with your suffering. You see ? So it does not do the greater good.
So choose that which is easy for you, which is what you are willing to do. Not always deliriously silly or fun, but there is something you are willing to do that you can do, and if you will offer your energies in this way, whatever calls to you, then you will be assisting, and we are grateful.
Anything else?
Question #4:
Is there a connection [between] the chakra system and the dimensions?
Mother Mary:
Ah, yes, there is. Very astute of you. However you are working with a seven chakra system for the most part, and this is why it has been expanded to a 12 chakra system, even 13 if you visualize the space just above your head. It has been expanded because these do align directly with the dimensions and to the degree that they are clear and rotating- either way, rotating happily, spinning gently.
Some people more naturally do this, [rotate one way] and some do this [the other way]. Yes, sometimes it is masculine or feminine. Sometimes it is just what they are going through. There’s a building up, or, there’s a gentle releasing, releasing or bringing in. Each one is healthy, not blocked, and each one is open and willing to be activated.
You can use them as a portal to any dimension you desire to explore. We would invite you to do a meditation for each of your chakras and just ask us, “Is there another one in here [that] I didn’t know about?” You don’t have to know anything about it. Say, “If there’s another one, let’s go explore that.” You do not have to know a system. Not everyone does know an expanded system. But just know that there are 12 with a 13th above your head.
It is a crown of sorts, and very close to us, the humans are operating in those 12 dimensions. There are, however many, many more [dimensions]. Jeshua has told this one, Jennifer, and also Kate, that he is most often in the 27th dimension, and from that frequency, he is able to tune into, listen, to be aware of and assist in a vibrational, energetic way, even with words, certainly with presence, a sense of presence, certainly with an awareness of all of you in the 12 dimensions, but all of the rest of life in the other dimensions.
This, this knowledge about dimensions is quite interesting, and we invite you to learn more about that if you are drawn to it. Is this helpful to you? We are sensing that it is perhaps time to wrap up.
Kate: Yes.
Mother Mary: Thank you very much, Kate [for time-keeping].
We appreciate this time together, this life together, these moments of life, together, sharing breath, sharing awareness, sharing consciousness, sharing our hearts, sharing love, sharing respect.
It is quite wondrous for us. We are deeply grateful.
Be well, grow well, dance and sing.
Farewell for now.
Kate:
Oh, my God, that was pretty amazing. Jenny, I don’t think I’ve ever seen you bring three energies in at once. I mean, not at once. It was successfully. But you know, during one [session]. I don’t think I’ve ever seen them do that.
Jennifer:
But when you think how they’re nested, right? It’s a progression. It’s a natural progression. Yeah?
Kate: But still, that was amazing. Thank you.
Jennifer:
Yeah. Thank you. It continues to amaze, truly continues to amaze me. There’s nothing I love more.

Lao Tzu
Rob: Well, if we’re going to talk about balance, then Lao Tzu would be the right choice. So we’ll go meet him in our Zen garden, with a stone bench sitting by a pond and green grass and cherry blossoms.
Okay, Lao Tzu, thank you for receiving me today and starting this series of going through each of the Infinity Keys. So let’s start with balance. Any words of wisdom to share?
[Laughs] Sorry, he’s teasing me. He said, “Greetings, Grasshopper!”
Lao Tzu: Yes, hello Rob. Hello, all. It’s always good to start these sessions with a laugh. It keeps the vibration high [and] allows the connection to flow more smoothly, does it not?
So this idea of yours, having differentiated the Keys to Self from the Keys to Heaven, that balance comprises two parts: As Above-So Below and As Within-So Without, it is an interesting idea, an idea that has merit. But I think you probably would agree that As Above-So Below and As Within-So Without, they are the same. Same, same.
For what is within you IS the above, IS the below, IS the without. It all starts within you. This is where you find that Heaven on Earth that you are seeking.
So you witness the chaos around you — what you call chaos — and you understand that it is only chaotic when you interpret it that way. Everything happens for a reason. The universe is not in the business of creating chaos. Events are what they are. They transpire as they need to be. Whether it is chaotic or not is your interpretation of those events based on an imbalance within yourself, within your own belief system.
So if it feels chaotic to you, then, as was expressed several weeks ago, that emotion of feeling chaos is an indicator to you that there is an imbalance within you. There is a conflict. There is something happening in the world that is contrary to your belief about what should be there, what you expected to be there. This is the within and without. What you see without does not match what is within you, the deepest part of you, the part that knows the divinity within you.
And as soon as you restore that back to its state of balance, that you understand why it is the way it is, then you will find the As Above-So Below. And the As Above follows, in reality, the So Below. The below happens first, which means you reconcile that imbalance within yourself to find that state of heaven — as above.
So you have paired all the Keys to Self with the Keys to Heaven, and rightly so. This would be a valuable exercise to continue as you have for all of them, but for balance, they are the same. What is heaven? What is self? It is all the same. It all starts with balance within yourself, within your own belief system.
So you are also correct that this is the starting point for finding that Heaven on Earth. All of the keys — Keys to Self [and] Keys to Heaven — must be within balance. And if any of them are causing you any difficulties, then it is that indicator to you that you are out of balance, and there is something to address.
We’d like to offer the opportunity to Mother Earth, Gaia, to speak with you for a few moments, that which she would like to offer in this time. She is very busy with caring for all of you, but she also relishes the opportunity to find a human voice who will open to a message she might like to relay. We will change places. Just a moment.
Mother Earth:
A joyous, rainy day to you, I am buoyant, spinning with joy to bring forward a few words to welcome you as my Daughters of the Earth. I feel your love. I feel each footfall, you who have already grown so greatly in the light, so greatly in the love within your hearts.
Do not worry if you still have questions. Do not worry if you do not define yourselves as holy. You are by your very nature, defined “Daughters of the One” and in your feminine representation, you also carry the perfect balance of the masculine, capable and able to take action, to inspire others and to protect all that you love.
I am grateful for the moments when you notice beauty in the physical world. This is a representation of the Divine Beauty; it is a third dimensional representation. Divine Beauty occurs wherever there is imagination. And all that you see in this world has been created by Divinity, which you share. You do share divinity ~ we know this is a surprise for many.
I enjoy a physical level. I enjoy my oceans, my rocks, my lava, my rainstorms, my thunder. I enjoy all of the physical expressions, breath of wind, which circulates and imbues every living thing with oxygen. I enjoy everything from the molecular level, and tinier, to the great, big, huge, wondrous ball of Planet that I am. It is a great honor for me to host, hold, nurture, feed and love all of Life on my surface.
We know that many of you worry about Me, many of you fear that I will be overcome. How can I be overcome when I am surrounded with such Divinity? If it were to be that the course has been run and finished for my planetary life, I would accept this and Life would move into a new form. Life does not get extinguished, only the physical representation.
But I am happy to tell you, we are not choosing this. We are choosing instead, to trust the love in the hearts of humanity, to trust the Sacred Hearts of all living creatures, to trust the consciousness that holds all the minerals, the waters, the air, the atmosphere – all that desires to evolve into a brighter and faster and sweeter, more harmonious expression.
And we are doing this together. We are doing this whether you’re conscious of this or not conscious of this. Your heart longs for this. Is that not so? And we know your hearts. We know your hearts because we are connected through the spheres that Mother talked of. It is in the physical that you can forget that you are connected.
Remember each one of you, if you feel disconnected from each other, if you feel disconnected from the Father-expression, if you feel disconnected from this group or that group, remember, put your toe in my water, walk upon my paths, lie upon my grass, breathe my air.
You are connected to me, and since I am connected to all others, all will be well.
I will conclude my words at this time. But do remember, I will not conclude our connection, because that is not possible.

[Rather than a direct channeling, this week I’m posting an article I wrote, but the inspiration behind it is just another form of channeling. We all have the wisdom within us, if we would only stop to listen. — Rob]
While listening to the radio the other day, I heard one of my favorite Beatles songs, Let It Be [1], and it struck me how many meanings that simple phrase could have, all of which make it the perfect anthem to guide our way through this Ascension process.
While Paul McCartney wrote the song about a dream he had of his own mother, Mary, I (and likely many others) take the references to “Mother Mary” as the personification of the Divine Mother, making the references to her “speaking words of wisdom” ever more meaningful. In spite of listening to the song hundreds, perhaps thousands of times, this time, it occurred to me (or was given to me by the Divine Mother 😉) that “Let it be” has three distinct connotations, depending on how we define “it”:
1. The first connotation is to let go of “it,” where “it” is any internal struggles we may be holding onto. This one is especially important, certainly for me, at this time. I am realizing on a daily basis just how many old beliefs, ideas, and judgments I’m holding that are just not useful and, thus, not necessary anymore. We are meant to experience life in peace, so when that peace is disturbed, it’s an indication that we’re holding onto a belief that is no longer necessary.
2. The second connotation is allowing others to be as they are, where “it” is anyone who may be behaving in a way we don’t approve. So often, we attempt to place limits on other’s behavior to conform to our ideas of what is right and proper. When we sit in judgment about another’s behavior, we are really trying to control them, but, they are divine sovereign beings, allowed to act anyway they are moved. So, in reality, any upset we feel is simply a reflection of something we are judging within ourselves.
We’re here only to learn to control ourselves — our own thoughts, beliefs, and emotions. Taken from that perspective, this connotation is actually a specific case of the first connotation, since all judgments about others are really manifestations of our own beliefs and biases, which are in need of letting go.
3. The final connotation is a prayer to a higher force that “it” may be so, where “it” is something we desire, presumably something better than what exists now. This time of Ascension is certainly a time of pleading with the Divine Mother to bring into our reality a better world. In fact, I am currently focused on the portion of the song that says,
“And when the broken-hearted people living in the world agree, there will be an answer. Let it be.
For though they may be parted, there is still a chance that they will see. There will be an answer. Let it be.”
We are living in a time when all the broken-hearted people, who are so deeply divided, are waking up and coming to agreement that there must be a better way. There IS an answer, because the Divine Mother has a plan, but it is up to each of us to do our part to decide what we want. Of this, I am convinced … and it leaves me with feelings of tremendous hope and gratitude.
While contemplating this song, I was reminded that many years ago (I don’t recall exactly when), I was walking down the hall of a very large Government office building where I worked, and I spontaneously started to sing “And when I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me.” Immediately, I realized that Mother Mary was, in fact, with me … right there in the hallway. It was her way of making her presence known at a time and place not particularly spiritual. Of course, being in a public place, I then had to hide the flowing tears! 🤣
So, the next time you find yourself upset by anything in your life, whether internal or external, my advice to you is simply to let it be and know that everything is happening for a reason. Return to the hope of a better world and know that Mother Mary has ”it” under control. 👏😉

[1] Let It Be, written by Paul McCartney, John Lennon, title track on Let It Be album, released 1970.
Rob: I’m calling in the Ascended Masters, and it looks like this will be Yeshua (Yeshi). So I’ll meet him where I always do, sitting on top of the pyramid in front of my Sacred Temple, sitting on the top step overlooking the water, the landscape.
So, if we had to add a fourth element to the Edgar Cayce quote that “Spirit is the life, mind is the builder, and the physical is the result,” how would we add emotion to that?
Yeshua: Hello again, all. Yes, this is your brother, Yeshi, to continue the conversation. Wouldn’t it be fun to be able to do this all together, sitting in a room, but I digress. We always have fun in any form that we’re able to communicate in this way.
So to answer your question directly, up front — and you know this, Rob; you have already discerned this — I would suggest that emotion is the indicator, but it is also the activator. Let me explain.
So while Edgar Cayce was correct that mind is the builder, that is an indicator that what you think — your thoughts, your beliefs — is what builds your reality, builds your perception of reality. It colors your perception. And in some ways, it puts it into a box that you can understand, and therefore [you] can function within that reality. And your emotions, then, are the indicator to you, within the physical body, of what you are thinking and of what you believe.
You see some event happen, [and] you have an emotional reaction. That is an indicator to you that there is something in your belief system that causes that reaction. And in that sense, it is your guidance system that helps you understand what it is that you believe.
But I would suggest also, by the same token, because emotion is, in fact, energy in motion, and energy is of the Spirit, that it is an activator. When you want to manifest something, bring something into your life, you hold that intention. It is your emotions that activate that into existence, that bring that energy to manifest what it is that you are intending through the mind to be brought into your reality.
So it is both an indicator and an activator, and yes, it is present within the construct of spirit, mind, and body. It is present across all three. Emotion, as energy in motion, is of the spirit, that is the energy. And as we just said, it is an indicator of what is in your mental construct about your reality. And of course, as we all know in the physical, any emotional reaction has a physical component to it as well. You physically feel the result.
Note: One Sunday I gathered with several others locally who love channeled messages, and stepped into a miraculous Happening! Three aspect of The Great Mother were eager to speak to us: Divine Mother, Mother Earth and Mother Mary.
Part 1 (below) is Divine Mother’s part, giving us the big picture. I see Her as the counterpart to God The Father (my theology is still evolving, but balance has always felt important. I see now that churches also are beginning to add “Our Father & Mother” to the very ancient traditional Lord’s Prayer… wonders never cease!)
This session was several weeks ago, when Spring here in the north was just waking up. Now we can fully embrace the season and begin to play! Wild as the ride is right now, one of the ways that helps me is connecting to the higher energies, in whatever form they take, inter-personal, energetic infusions, mirth, sweetness, color, awe…. Take your pick and enjoy Life, please. The world needs your heart. Love, Jen
PART 1 of 3:
Jennifer:
Mama, we come to you today at the end of a long Maine winter and I know that you recognize that we could use your replenishing and your restorative energy boost. So we would appreciate any advice or encouragement about how to, how to proceed into the Spring with a spring in our step & more light in our hearts. Thank you.
Divine Mother:
Divinely human ones, I am grateful for this moment, this rare and precious moment, to speak with you face to face, wonder to wonder, curiosity to curiosity. I do see your energies. I know you. I know your core. I know your souls. But it is wonderful to peer through human eyes and peek at your physical expressions. Each of you have chosen beautifully for this life to learn what you desire to learn, to serve in the way that you desire to serve, to be present, to play with your brothers and sisters, your children, your families and friends in the physical world.
This is a great blessing for you, and we know that you appreciate it. Each of you have a strong sense of the beautiful & the blessing of being together, and yet, on your journey to full awareness, or “Home,” as we call it.
On your journey Home, each of you must make your own choices. You do not come as a group. It must be an individual maturation of the heart and spirit. So allow yourself to be where you are on your journey, and know that there is an enormous Welcome to each of you.
Every time you get a glimpse of where it is that you are longing to be and where it is you’re beginning to feel you are approaching, we are here to guide, to encourage, to fill you up when you’re feeling low.
As I speak, imagine that you each have a funnel in the top of your head, and I am pouring through that funnel into your chakra system, into your energy fields, through your beautiful physical bodies, I am pouring additional light, additional dancing energy, for you to use in any way that serves you, serves your individual form, in any way that you need, for healing or for sustenance.
Yes, think of it as a pearlescent white light. Just close your eyes and feel it soaking into you, nestling into the spots where you need additional help. Infusing your blood with sparkling, colorful energies, which then travel to all of the different organs and physical spaces ~ the bones, tissues and your sensory organs ~ we bathe them and light them up as well. We orient you toward your own divinity, the light that you are intrinsically, we are just adding a little bit to you. Know that you are filling up, taking in just exactly the right amount for you.
[The light] infuses, as well, your whole energetic sphere, your whole spiritual bubble, the bubble that lives unseen by your natural eyes. It is your bubble, your spiritual sphere, that touches all of ours at all times. In your world, when you have bubbles that touch each other, the soap bubbles that you love to play with, they form a contiguous wall, a single wall between the two bubbles, or many.
In our case with the spiritual bubbles, they actually intersect and penetrate slightly the other so that there is a shared shape, which you know as the Vesica Pisces. It is that beautiful shape which the human eye echoes, in a sideways form. It is that beautiful shape where two circles overlay one another, and within that shape, there is the shared experience, and it is most gratefully enjoyed by all of us in the non- physical realms – you call them the higher realms, the heavenly realms.
It does not matter exactly where you picture us. Just know that we are intersecting bubbles of energy, some of us greater, some of us smaller – that does not matter. Each one is a beautiful, beautiful
sphere, glistening with color, glistening with light, in relation with all other living beings, all other living souls, and that includes the souls of the mountains and the souls of the trees, the spirits of water, the spirits of mushrooms, all of the beautiful animal souls, we are all spiritual spheres together. It is all one big, wondrous field of sphere.
Next time, Part 2 with Mother Earth!!
