This week’s guest post is by Tam Randles, a very dear colleague and classmate with The Council of Love. We have taken many wonderful classes together from Linda Dillon and then became certified together in 2021. Tam has become a clear voice for unity & divine alignment, embodying the teachings of the Archangels and Ascended Masters who channel as the Council of Love in a lovely, gentle, sweet and balanced way. Tam is heading up a special free event on Saturday, Feb. 28th at 11 am EST (New York time) to share her vision & understanding of how we are the New Humans emerging on Nova Earth. Here is a little of her invitation, and a link. I hope you will join me and all the Lighthouse team on Saturday! Love, Jen
This is A New Beginning… an awakening into a Diamond Age of Miracles and Wonder — not as fantasy, but as embodied reality we are learning to live.
— a New Beginning… an awakening into a Diamond Age of Miracles and Wonder — not as fantasy, but as embodied reality we are learning to live.
This is where The Great Awakening matters: not as information, but as embodiment.
Archangel Jophiel reminds us: “The Future is Now.” It’s “Go Time.” And that familiar phrase from Conscious Creating with the Mother has re-emerged:
“Just Do It.”
We are in an alignment of timelines, dimensions, and frequencies — a convergence where past and future meet as Presence in the Now.
There’s a Native teaching that what we do now affects the past seven generations and the future seven generations. In this way, what we choose now heals what has been and creates what comes next.
The future we are returning to is the Original Plan: Gaia as a planet of Peace and Love — where we live as one family in the fullness of who we truly are.
So “Just Do It” — NOW — also means: Just BE it. The tide has turned — to BE a radiant NEW Wave of Love, Life, and Light, Peace for All in a world that works for everyone…
Can you feel the pulse of these past 13-year cycles with the Council of Love?
1987 — Harmonic Convergence (a new tone, a new vibration)
2000 — Victory 2000
2013 — The New You: Emerging into the Brilliance of Humanity’s Heart Consciousness
2013 — Mother’s Tsunami of Love: “Be the wave.”
2026 — A New Beginning, a new circle, a Diamond Age
I keep hearing this phrase:
“The tide is turning.”
So… let us be the wave — in unity, alignment, and embodied action.
You’re invited:
A Free Great Awakening Gathering — Saturday, February 28 (11:00am Eastern)
An overview of the foundational map (Linda Dillon’s book: The Great Awakening, 2012), what’s new now and an invitation into the deeper journey.
~ This is the last part of Jeshua’s visit on the Winter Solstice. There were seven of us present in person. As Jesus promised: “Where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I…” Matt:18:20 …What an amazing experience it was… I hope you have enjoyed the transcript. It is my great joy to channel in this way. Love, Jennifer

PART 5 of the Solstice Channeling Dec. 2025
#6: My question just has to do with the raising of the vibration of the world, or just what will that look like down the road?
Jeshua/Yeshua: This is of great interest to Jennifer as well. It will be as though you step out on the porch by the lake on the first morning of your summer vacation, and you are barefoot and you have very little on, and you say, I will just run across the path and jump into the water. There will be such an effervescent feeling in the air for you that you will be able to be spontaneous in your excitement, in your sense of renewal and joy.
You will feel like that child who has been let out of school at the end of the day, no more assignments, no more being pinned to the desk. You will experience a great sense of freedom and the bubbling up of joy. Your drink, the ginger ale, has a wonderful sense of sparkliness and bubbles rising.
You will notice that those around you are also lighter. They are joking. They are speaking kindly one to another in the grocery line. It is quite extraordinary. You are not all insulated completely, anymore, in your own individual baggies with the zipper. You are peeking at one another, going, “Hi.” Yes, there is an opening, a freedom, a naturalness.
You do not need to lose all your clothing if you do not desire so. However, think of the child that you were once when you were three, and you preferred just not to bother to get dressed that morning. You will feel more comfortable with that possibility. You may not choose it. That’s fine.
The thing to know about the higher dimensions is that each dimension has twelve steps, and you do not need to experience all of them at once. You will grow into comfort…Your ‘comfort zone’ will expand – that is the way I want to say it – if you will treat each new day as bringing you new insight, new potential for happiness, new moments of joy you did not expect. You cannot engineer joy. They have not figured this out. The ginger ale is pretty good, but they have not figured this out yet. It is something that opens when your heart opens.
Have you ever watched a bird sing, or watched a child play when no one’s- they think- no one’s looking? Have you seen the child pump on their swings higher and higher and higher? “Push me, push me.” Their joy has no bounds.
You will find more joy in your life, more freedom, more laughter, an easier way of disentangling yourself from a common social difficulty. You have a flat tire by the side of the road. You say to yourself, “Oh, I wonder how I can get out of this mess!” You may use a few choice words, and then you will say, “Okay, I’m in the flow. I can believe that something good will come, something will come to help me.” You can ask. You can say a prayer. We will always respond. We always respond to being asked. You know, such as today, I was invited, I came.
Now, to get back to our story. You are by the side of the road. You do not know how to get out of this mess, but you have asked for some help, or you are open to some help. Immediately, someone pulls up behind you, yes, and so they come along the side of the car, and you look up and there is a kind face there. You put your window down. They say, “Can we help you? I noticed that you might need a little help. I actually work at a garage, and I’m pretty good at this. Can I help you with your tire?” You see, the one who is ready to be there for you will be there very easily.
Everyone wants to serve, everyone wants to help one another. They may not realize it yet, but they are growing into it, and more and more people are ready to spring to attention to help each other. This is very visible in your world. Now we are most happy about this.
So I’ve given you a few illustrations. You will smile for no reason or little reasons, a caterpillar crosses your trail, a little tiny spider is being most successful in a corner of your house, and it is so tiny it is causing you no harm whatsoever, and you decide, much to your own surprise, not to vacuum it up. That little spider is quite grateful. The whole species is grateful.
You are not as afraid as you were. You are leaving behind your fears. You see, these are the signs that you will be growing and once there is no fear, oh, the fun is just beginning. There will be much rejoicing, many, many forms of rejoicing, much helping of one another in ways that are heartwarming. Is this an answer to you? Do you have a follow up question? [No] Okay. Play with this. It is like… taste it on your tongue. Your experiences are just beginning.
Yes, this is why we recommend journaling. Keep track of these wondrous things that you did not expect, that happened, that turned out better than you thought, where you were met with kindness or you were met with wisdom, you were met with surprises which made your heart sing. Synchronicities. We love to play synchronicities with you. Is this clear? Yes?
Hope this image doesn’t offend anyone… I love it. We all want to see him as our brother.
Well, we are feeling perhaps we have come to a place where we should say our farewells, our fond farewells, for tonight. Know that I am present with each one of you. I am willing to be present whenever invited. I am a breath away. All you have to say is “Yeshua, are you there?” You will feel a tap on your shoulder. You will feel a whisper in your ear. You will feel a finger on your cheek. You will feel something.
If you would like me to make myself known to you, you say, “Yeshua, are you there?” You will feel something. You may feel your stomach gurgle…(laughter!) That would not be my answer. I do so love to make you laugh! But you will have some sense of engagement with someone who loves you, who cares about you. You say, “Is that you, Yeshua?” Listen, you will hear a yes, “Yes, it is me. I am here with you. I’m here for you”.
I’m here when you need me. I’m here when you just want to play, to discover more about what we can learn from one another. And you do teach me. Each one of you teaches me through your courage, through your sensitivity, through your experiences. I can live millions of lives by those who will share with me and each life is so precious.
So we thank you. I, thank you. Mary Magdalene and I, thank you. Mother and Father, through me, thank you each one. We honor you, we bless you and we thank you.
All: Thank you. Thank you.
Jennifer: Oh, thanks, Jeshua…
Channeled by Jennifer Joy Donaldson, Portland, Maine 12/21/2025
I’m currently in the process of mourning the unexpected and sudden loss of a very close family member, and it’s serving as a very real reminder that everyone makes their own decisions about whether or not they stay in form during this on-going Ascension process. It also serves as a stark reminder that we must all make decisions about what we hold onto and what we let go. If it doesn’t fit the higher vibrations of the higher dimensions, then it cannot move into those realms.
All lightworkers know this, but the passing of a loved one brings the point out of the esoteric and into the practical. Of course, at the end of the day, we must honor everyone’s decision to transition now and accept that they have chosen to help more from the spirit side than from this side.
Thankfully, I have learned to channel, so I decided to ask the spirit of the family member who passed why he made the decision to go now and why so suddenly. He told me that it was, in fact, because he could more good to help with humanity’s ascension from that side. And regarding the decision to go so quickly, he pointed out that it is far more loving to get it over with quickly than to expect loved ones to endure a long, drawn-out decline. Being able to “speak” to him really did help me to accept and honor his decision that it was for the highest good of all.
Have you witnessed a similar experience in your own life? Are you accepting it with ease and grace, while honoring the Divine Plan? Please come to Saturday’s Spirit Cafe discussion and share your experience and wisdom.
Out There Somewhere… Photo by Andre Furtado on Pexels.com
Personal story: Lately our channeling group has been interested in exploring our connections to our star families and other civilizations “out there somewhere…” I once had a beautiful experience through a guided journey with Shikiah, when I met Lord Arcturus and established that I actually have an Arcturian part of me… I’ve never forgotten that meditation, and am still grateful to Shikiah.
At the same time I was deeply immersed in an apprenticeship with Jeshua through another channel (the late, incomparable Lesley Michaels). In one of my sessions I had a chance to confirm that I’d actually met with Lord Arcturus “Indeed you know him well.” (!) Then I asked if what we sense with our imagination in such a journey can be real. He answered “Completely real.” That adjusted my openness to subsequent intuitive experience. We just need to trust our hearts. We can sense Truth. Just last week I felt the desire to see if I could channel Lord Arcturus, now that I can channel directly. Thanks to my teammates, Rob Loveland and Rachel O’Gara, here’s the result. Love, Jennifer
Jennifer channeling Lord Arcturus, 1st time, Dec. 5th, 2025
Jen: All right, everybody. I’ll go into the channeling space and [please] support this, it’s out of my ordinary sphere.
So I’m going to ask my higher self, my whole self, to liaise with Lord Arcturus, or one of the others. We are friends already with Grener and Ashira, but I am curious about the presence of Arcturians, specifically, on the planet, and what they’re involved in and how they’re helping us.
So I felt a flash of purple, and then this kind of beautiful white horizon threaded through it. Lord Arcturus is a lot like Sanat Kumara. He is tall, very tall, and blue, a light blue, skin, not a dark blue. He says, This is why I like that color so much. He has a long robe and a very high collar going up like this around his neck. So Lord Arcturus, would you like to channel with our group today, speak with us and bring us some insights into the Arcturian presence with Earth in her ascension and our ascension as humanity.
Lord Arcturus: Indeed, I am most comfortable to do so. Greetings all. I am most interested in your devices, which allow you to see each other from your small boxes and to converse and indeed to exchange energy. You have all become very adept at being fully present within this mechanism. And I commend you on your learning to channel! You have certainly dedicated yourselves to a very high purpose, and this high purpose is one we share with you.
I am wanting to illuminate for you and for Jennifer — her curiosity is blossoming in this area — Illuminate for you the ways in which we are present with you. We are present more often telepathically than physically, but some of us do indeed transmit our energy to your planetary surface and take on a physical representation.
It is correct that we alter our physical representation to blend in, when we are in the physical. We would most dearly enjoy to appear in our natural state with you. But again, these would be small meetings of people who had become prepared in some way or who had specifically requested and the ability was already developed for the energy to match our energy. Now, of course, we are multi- dimensional also, and can lower our energy, for a particular circumstance, or help you rise to a higher energy by adding our energies together and basically dialing it up.
We are able to gather with people who are interested. Now, there are those on your planet who are consciously interested and who have made a choice out loud, so to speak, not always [literally] out loud, but a conscious choice, to meet with us, talk with us, and work with us. But for many of you, this is on a soul level. This is a choice you have made on a soul level, and you are meeting with us, spending time with us, and working with us in your dream time or unconsciously through meetings that you may have with other Arcturians now in your group.
If you are feeling that you particularly have an alliance with us, a history with us, a relationship with us, it is because you too have spent considerable time or had deep experiences and thorough experience with our civilization, our way of life, our way of being. We are not unfamiliar to you. It is just that many of you have not asked to specifically relate to us. You may enjoy some channelings from Arcturians, or you may have some curiosity, if you come across a reference in something written or seen on your television or your different devices.
We are indeed involved in the ascension process with you. We are supporting it on every level. We are whispering peace in your ears. We are supporting your choices to create a benign environment, one of great beauty and thriving for all, one which operates on a level in which there is no harm; there is no judgment; there is no competition.
You yourselves find great delight when you are involved in a co-creation project with friends and others, where you can feel the synthesis of your thoughts and your purpose creating, resulting, in something that gives you all a great deal of joy. This is very much a hallmark of our way of life.
On Arcturus, we are highly imaginative people, and we love to play individually and collectively. Individually, because it gives us a greater rein to spiral in our own energy, in a wondrous way. It is as though we all went to the beach and we all began to draw in the sand, each of us has our own visions, our own way to play with the material at hand. So it is fun to create individually.
It is also our great joy to combine together and to create in this way. So whether it is creating new modes of cooperation on your planet, whether it is helping to create a deeper sense of trust in the Star Families, as you call them, whether it is reflecting back to you your own curiosity and your own desire to evolve, we assist those who are involved in the arts, the creative arts, whether they are making the music or the art or the furniture for the next millennium.
You are beginning to conceive of a great many things which will bring your world forward. And many of us who are volunteering, and there are many, are each attaching to the particular type of interest that they have. So there are those working with diplomacy amongst the multi-nation configurations, the various cooperations among nations, various formations of different kinds, which have been collectively created to bring forward new answers and a deeper trust and sense of satisfaction and indeed affection for one another. So that your populations are crossing international lines much more often and beginning to see themselves as world citizens.
This also reflects our population. We have personal preferences for places that we enjoy settling and being on Arcturus, but we have very much a sense of global citizenship, global participation and membership in a whole. The whole idea of Whole is one which informs our society greatly. We are most interested in the Whole and yet we enjoy the small differences between us as to how each of us might make choices.
So we are what you would think of as an advanced civilization, very committed to answering your desire to continue to evolve consciously. As for being physically present with us, we are capable of formulating a physical form to be with you, but as I said, we are most often operating telepathically, where we will either work through a writer or a an artist or a channel, such as yourselves, to bring forward more information.
We feel that we have spoken enough as an initial introduction. If you would like to, at a later time, continue this, we would be happy to follow any direction of your own curious natures, to continue to illuminate what we can for you. Happy to be of service in this way.
Happy to see each of you again in your present physical form. It is a wonderful sight, and we feel your hearts. Thank you for inviting me today. Until the next time.
Jen: Thank you, Lord Arcturus! [To my team:] He felt really sweet.

Afterword: Synchronistically, our teammate Sue Scofield sent this article to me this morning, from Daniel Scranton, who channels the Arcturians often.
if you’re drawn also to Arcturian wisdom, another favorite channel of mine is Marilyn Raffaele, whose messages Oneness for All are found here. Have fun discovering All That YOU Are!! Bye for now….
Last Sunday, 23 Nov 2025, several Council of Love Teachers conducted an Open Channeling Session, allowing anyone who attended to channel an Ascended Master to hear how we are doing on our Ascension path. We will be posting the resulting four channelings, one at a time, over the next week or so. We hope you enjoy them as much as we enjoyed bringing them forward! — Jen& Rob
Part 2 (of 4)
Rob: I think it’s going to be Sanat Kumara, known to us as Raj, also known as the Ancient of Days. I just love that title!
Sanat Kumara: Greetings, all. Yes, this is Sanat Kumara, the Universal Logos, and I would simply like to extend a bit, perhaps expand on, what was just said.
We are coming to a time, all of us (and I include all of us on this side as well), the time of Ascension, the time of culmination of millennia of effort. And we are so thankful for all of you and your role that you have chosen to come here at this time, the role that you play in bringing humanity across the finish line, as it were. You will notice that there are many channels now posting messages, all about this being the time of completion, for it is. So take heart.
There may be a lot that comes out in the near future that many of you will find disturbing, but remember through all of that, remember who you are, why you are here. This is what you came for, and no matter how you feel about that, about the events that are occurring in the world, about the revelations that are coming to light, that it is simply that. It is simply shining the light on what has been seen as the darkness within the world.
But I would encourage you all at all times to stay within your own divine neutrality. That is the key for seeing your way through, and actually for transitioning to the New Earth, Nova Gaia. [It] is maintaining that sense of neutrality, of seeing all events in the world as part of the Divine Plan.
So any notions that this is the time where good will prevail over what some call evil is simply an extension, a continuation, of that sense of separation, of us against them. This is not the way forward. The way forward is to maintain that sense of neutrality. Step out of the fray, of the melee, as it were.
This one, this channel, Rob, and Jennifer and others have chosen for themselves the symbol of the lighthouse. The lighthouse derives its power from the light within its core and shines that out to all. Irrespective of what is happening on the outside, the light always shines. And in that regard, it is a symbol, a marker, a sign, for all others to see and to follow. It’s a sign of safety — come this way to safety, and therefore, return to peace.
The lighthouse does not care where the storm came from. It does not affect in any way the weather that is on the outside. Its job is simply to shine its light. The only decision is how brightly.
The lighthouse does not get involved in what occurs on the outside. Irrespective of whether that is seen by some as good or bad or right or wrong, it simply shines its light. This is the way forward for all of you, for all of humanity.
Step out of that sense of duality. Come together as one in the spirit of unity. Find that common ground. And you, just shine your light. Many are questioning, what is it that I need to do? What should I be doing? I would suggest it is simply that â shine your light!
When you find yourself affected by what you see in the outside world, return to your core. Find that light. It is always there, and turn it up. Not only will it return YOU to your own sense of peace, but again, it will be a symbol for all others to see and to follow. You have a much greater effect on all of those around you, far more than you know.
Again, we are so pleased at the progress you are all making. This is the time, the prophesied time. We are on the threshold. We are at the cusp. Events must unfold as they will. The Divine Plan is moving forward. So see all events as simply part of that Divine Plan, that these events must occur if humanity is to move forward. And that is the plan.
And again, you are fulfilling your role, and we are so grateful to you all. So with that, I will step aside for a moment. If there are any questions, as Yeshua said, we would be happy to entertain them at this time.
Last Sunday, 23 Nov 2025, several Council of Love Teachers conducted an Open Channeling Session, allowing anyone who attended to channel an Ascended Master to hear how we are doing on our Ascension path. We will be posting the resulting four channelings, one at a time, over the next week or so. We hope you enjoy them as much as we enjoyed bringing them forward! — Jen & Rob
Part 1 (of 4)
Jen: Getting a big squeeze from Yeshua.
Yeshua/Jeshua: Greetings, my beloved ones. This is Yeshua. I know you all. I know each of you, and I’m very, very glad to see your faces in this way. I see your energies at all times, but we in the Ascended realms who are aware of energy do not see your physical presence in this way, unless we are given this type of mirror or device, or if we were sitting together in a room.
So let us see ourselves as levitating, everyone in one circle and seated comfortably in one room. It is in a beautiful place. You can furnish it in your imagination.
Jennifer is seeing birch trees and rocks that are just the perfect height and shape and covered with soft woolen blankets. And there are wild flowers, and there is ocean in the distance. Our Mother is fully present. Our Father is fully present, symbolized by the blue sky and the brilliant sun. And let us just sit together and talk.
This is an opportunity for me to let you know that we are extremely pleased with the progress of your world in its Ascension path. Yes, indeed, we speak primarily of Humanity, because you often see troubles among yourselves, within your own community. The other kingdoms, the Plants and the Animals, the Birds, the Elementals, the Trees, the Insects, they are all ascending very, very gently and very, very happily. And besides, they do know how to stay in a higher vibration if they so choose. This is what the Elementals have done for a great long time.
But you see, it is Humanity that has contributed greatly with the creations of life on this planet, and indeed, with your expressions of life in all dimensions, in all places. Each of you contribute greatly to the whole! Divine Mother and Divine Father are very aware of your contributions, and that is partly why they treasure you dearly. Even if you were only to contribute an eyelash in 10,000 lives, you would be treasured. You would be precious. You are precious, and you are treasured.
But we know that many of this group — all of this group, I will say — have devoted their hearts — I will not say all your time, that is up to you, choose how you will — devoted your hearts to the well being of this world in its Ascension path.
And we will speak of Ascension because it is a question that many of you hold. How are we doing? Are we really ascending? Is this really happening, and how do we maintain our vibration? Call on us. Spend time with us. This is why Jennifer loves to channel; it is spending time with us. Let us be your very best friends, as often as you feel motivated to do so.
And if you want to play in a lower vibration for a little while, be my guest. We are done when we are done, and we are not done before we are done. Each of us progresses in our own perfect timing. Allow this to be so. Be comfortable with YOUR progress. Yes.
You do not have to struggle to maintain a higher vibration. You do not have to force yourself to be ascended. If you do not feel particularly ascended in that moment — you feel cranky, or you feel irritated at something, or you feel you are judging, and you catch yourself, because you all know, now, when you feel that — it is a disconnection, isn’t it, from feeling your unity with one another.
But more and more, you are feeling, in your energetic awareness, the coming together with one another, the sense of family, the sense of loving all other humans on the planet, even the ones that are most difficult to love. Yes, these are the ones who make the loudest noise, but each of you are treasures in the hearts of Mother and Father. Each of you shine in your own beautiful way in the crown of All That Is.
So allow this to be so. Relax in it. Choose your days, moment by moment. How do you want to feel? How would you like to play today? How would you like to create today? There is much that we are creating together.
Know that we meet in your dream time. We are involved in many, many activities, actions for the enlightenment, the betterment, the ease of the trajectory of Ascension for the entire planet, [for] each of you, and many, many, many more.
Some are just becoming aware that they are invited to the party, so reach out your hand to them. You do not need to say very much, unless they ask. But just with your loving smile, just with your energetic signature, you’re signaling to their energy that it’s happening.
This beautiful progress of Ascension is a most wondrous thing to behold. So yes, it is happening, and yes it is going well. And do not be too disturbed by the noise. We will be easing out of this.
We are moving forward at every moment, expanding. Lilies all over the giant pond of human consciousness are opening. Take it in and know this is the blossoming of love on the planet. This is the fulfillment of my message, the message that Mary Magdalene and I brought to the planet, Mother Mary and Father Joseph, all of the Essenes, all of those who collected around us, this is the fulfillment of our dream to lift humanity back into Oneness.
Jeshua: This is the fulfillment of our dream ~ to lift humanity back into Oneness
You can still be embodied. This is the miracle. You can still participate in human life. You can still get together in your committees and your dance circles and your artistic endeavors and all of the different things that you would like to be involved in. You can still do this. This will be your fun. Enjoy!!
~ channeled by Jennifer Joy Donaldson, 2025
The NEXT segment will be posted in a few days… it will be Rob Loveland channeling Sanat Kumara, with Q & A.
…..image compiled from our favorite images of the Ascended Masters
~Who will channel? Rob Loveland & I, Jennifer Donaldson. We will be joined by other COLTs who may feel willing to channel at the time. Anyone is welcome to join us, we’d love to see you and have you listen to as the messages come through. The Ascended Masters will also take questions from participants, as time allows, through Jennifer.
~Who are the COLTs? The COLTs are all Council Of Love Teachers & Coaches — and many of them channel beautifully!
~Who do we channel? We all channel Beings of Great Love and Light from the Higher Realms who are part of the Council of Love. Most of the Lighthouse for the Soul blog consists of the messages we have received from these Beings.
~What is the Council of Love? An umbrella group of Archangels, Ascended Masters, Saints, Enlightened Beings and Star Family who are dedicated to the Divine Mother’s Plan of Ascension on our beloved planet Earth.
~How did we learn? The CoLTs have been trained to teach & coach ~and to channel~ by the COL founder and original channel, Linda Dillon, herself an Earth Angel, deeply committed to the restoration of Nova Gaia. Linda is a superb channel, spiritual teacher, coach and author ~ and a wonderful friend to us all.
~What do we believe? We have been told through channeling that not only is Gaia ascending (healing, raising in vibration/frequency) with all lifeforms upon Her, but humanity is too!! (That’s why life got so weird… but don’t worry, it’s all going to turn out way better for everyone!) We are all spiritual, but we don’t have a creed, or anything formal, and this is definitely NOT a religion or cult of any kind… we live all over the world and were drawn together into an on-line community by our own guides and teachers.
~ What do we share? We share a common understanding, evolved over the last 30-40 years, from many sources, that life is evolving into a higher dimensional reality, a New Era of unity consciousness, where harmony and well-being prevail – the long heralded Thousand Years of Peace. We are all, each of us on the planet, contributing to bringing this about, though our choices, our hearts and our deepest longings. Bring it on!!
If you share this hope that we are evolving into higher consciousness and feel encouraged and uplifted by conversation with the Ascended Masters and others of the Council of Love, please join us on Sunday!November 23rd, 11 am Eastern Standard Time (US). If you miss it, you’ll get some extracts in our blog next week, so no worries!
Jen: My dear Lord Maitreya, would you like to comment on your generous role in my life and in all our lives and in this sense that we are living more and more now in the fifth dimension?
Lord Maitreya: This is Maitreya. I am very pleased to be invited to speak with you in this way, in this setting, at this time, and in answer to your questions. We see this breakthrough that you are feeling, and many will be feeling this, and many are feeling this. But if you are not yet feeling this, know that you will.
It comes at a time when there is a convergence of energies which have been preparing for a long time to lighten up, brighten up, lift up. This is ascension. You are all in an ascension process. Your elevators are moving. Some are moving quickly. Some are moving slowly, but eventually your doors open and you step out and it feels like life is a little more wonderful. Life is a little more amazing. Life is easier. Life is gentler.
It is because you are reflecting these things. You have learned to be gentle to yourself. You have learned to take things a little easier, and even if you have many plates in the air, as you like to visualize it, you are having fun with your plates. You are not feeling daunted. You are not feeling afraid that you will drop them. You know that they can, well, first of all, your plates are made of paper, so if they drop to the ground, it’s no big deal. You just pick it up, you see. So it is not the hardship that you have been committed to for so long.
This new space feels brighter, lighter, softer. I spoke of the gentle aspect of it. I would use the word sweeter, but I do not mean the sugary part which all of you struggle with from your experiences of the toxicity of it. I speak of the sweetness of Life itself, the unexpected bursting upon you, the pleasure that you anticipate with anything — going for a walk and seeing a beautiful bird, the pleasure bursting upon you, it is as though your palate becomes your entire experience, and the sweetness of Life bursts upon your view, your sensations, your vision, your hearing.
Now let us talk a little bit about this time of year. It can, as the leaves fall in your part of the world, go from being Technicolor gorgeous, to being a little dreary and drab. This has been your experience in all of the years on the planet in this part of the world. Ah. So how will this feel like a higher vibration to you? What will change in this next month and the month after that? This will be a fun thing for you to discover! Your technique of saying to the world every morning, saying to the universe, saying to your guides, angels, your higher self, “Surprise me. I’m open to surprises today. I’m trusting that the surprises that will come to me will be joyous!”
Surprises will be interesting. Surprises will be unexpected in a way that opens up new understanding, new pleasure, new experience. You can say to yourself every day, “Oh, I’ve done this before, but I’ve never experienced it that way before!” So, in your everyday occurrence, you are not suddenly transported to another universe. Your everyday experiences, that you are well familiar with, will become to you more rich in their offerings and in your ability to receive, to allow the wondrousness and to receive the new experiences.
Every experience has value for you. This is why you incarnate. This is why you play the game. This is why you run the movie. Every experience has value to you, and so you stop in each moment and you sniff the air, “Oh, that wonderful smell of Fall, of Earth. The leaves are falling now, and they create a wonderful, wonderful aroma.”
Okay, so you hear a sound that in the past, you would have said, “Oh, there’s that darn leaf blower again,” and I’m using gentle language. You will think instead, “Oh, I send ear protection to that young man carrying that monstrously noisy machine. I hope that his ears will be safe and that he will find fulfillment from his work. That, in this period in his life, running a leaf blower for a yard company be a good job for him, and one that helps him in many ways.”
So you see, your experience of the leaf blower is entirely different than it was a few years ago, when you would say a string of angry words and put some headphones on, or get in your car and drive away somewhere where you did not have to listen to that. You have asked for a gentler world, and it is moving in that direction. Yes, many people are converting to the quieter forms of leaf blowing.
And you say, “Why not get out your rake?” Well, there are people who are reviving this too. Yes, there is something calming and gentle about moving a rake slowly across your lawn to find all those lovely leaves. And did your friend not just send you a wonderful video of raking her lawn with her grandchildren? And them lining up and, at the count of three, running forward and leaping into the leaf pile with laughter and smiles? What a joyful moment, and your friend sent it to you in the mail. She enjoys a leaf rake. Yes, they will revive.
People will begin to realize that they have speeded up their lives to an uncomfortable degree, and they have a choice. They can move into something more comfortable, and step by step, they will do so. So we have elaborated a little bit on the qualities that you are beginning to notice, and we would take this moment indeed to affirm for you, to confirm for you entirely, that yes, indeed, you are moving into and living more in the higher dimension, of the fifth.
You do not need to know exactly what all of the steps are, but you do know that there are twelve steps in each dimension, and you will experience each of those before you are ready to open the door of that elevator. You see? And sometimes you stay in the elevator for a while, and it goes up and it goes down, and it goes up and it goes down, and you just enjoy watching the floors change. Yes, it is fun. Do you remember that story of the little girl in the big hotel in New York, Eloise? [by Kay Thompson & Hilary Knight]. She would ride the elevator up and down and up —and get off where she wanted and run along the hallway and find the the stairs, the physical stairs, and run up them and run down them. This is what is happening in your world right now, and there is a playfulness and a joyousness to it. All of the heavier energies are being left behind, when each of you is ready, and we honor the pace of every single one of you.
[part 2 on Abundance, next week! ]
Great love to each one of you. This is Maitreya. Until the next time. Farewell.

A Gathering of Hearts, Healing, and Higher Purpose – by Jennifer Donaldson
We warmly welcome you to this month’s SPIRIT CAFE—a sacred space for sharing, reflection, and soul-deep conversation. Join us for an hour Saturday, Oct. 18 at 11 AM EDT as we come together in community to explore the themes that are calling to us.
This month, our topic emerges from two meaningful currents in our collective journey:
Many of us are experiencing loss, grief, or inner crisis—the kind that asks us to stop, breathe, and feel deeply – and accept the love offered by our friends & family.
As we prepare for our upcoming webinar, The Bridge to Nova Earth — a gathering designed to guide us into the next chapter of co-creation and conscious living, often the grace we need to go through the changes can be elusive.
So we ask: How do we lovingly let go of the deepest attachments— people, roles, beliefs —not in despair, but in reverence? And can that emptiness that feels like loss become the still point, the fertile ground for a life more aligned with our soul’s promise?
Together– introduced in this week’s SPIRIT CAFE … and then developed fully in our upcomingBRIDGE to NOVA EARTH 2 hour webinar with charts, visuals, exercises, channeling and more —
we’ll explore how loss can be an invitation… An invitation to new beginnings, new relationships, and new dimensions of being — within ourselves and upon this blessed planet home.
Let us meet in the space between letting go and becoming. Let us build the bridge to Nova Earth -in unity-
hand in hand, step by step, eye to eye, one smile after another.
Thank You for visiting with us… <3 <3 <3 We really appreciate Your Light!
Rather than publishing a recent channeling, I’m choosing to reflect on a recurring theme that I’ve felt for a long time, specifically that this ascension journey can feel incredibly lonely! I see it in others as well, so it seems like an ironic thing to say, but I’m not alone in feeling lonely.
As always, the guidance I need to see me through the struggle comes from the Company of Heaven … which is a clue to where our focus should be. 😉
A guide named Ulai acknowledged to me in Dec 2022 that this Ascension journey is “difficult in the process. It does feel lonely. Band together with your team — not just this team, but all people of like mind that you come across, that you encounter. You are all one. The mission is one. Draw your strength from those around you. There is no greater strength than love, and that’s enough.”
In March of this year, Lao Tzu advocated that “even living in a place of higher vibration all the time, you will find it to be a lonely existence. There will not be very many people that you encounter who are at that same level. I’m not saying it is not possible, but you are not here to isolate yourself, not at this time. Now is the time for joining together with all others and sharing yourself for the brilliance that you are.”
Even though the advice is to band together with others of like mind, the steps we take to elevate our own vibration (and, thus, the vibration of the world) must be made by us alone — no one can take those steps for us. In this regard, the journey seems self-centered … and isn’t that the opposite of the promises of Nova Earth?!
In Jan 2024, Yeshua said to me that “while that might sound on the surface like it’s an act of selfishness to be focused on oneself only, that could not be further from the truth. It seems paradoxical, but it’s true. You find EVERYTHING within yourself, so the focus must be there. And at the same time, it might seem that it is a lonely journey, since it is centered on yourself, on yourself alone, but again, this could not be further from the truth. For as you venture inward, as you learn to connect from your heart, that really is where you discover the whole notion of unity consciousness, that you are, in fact, connected to all others.”
This point was just reiterated to me by Archangel Mikael this past week when he said, “as soon as you make that mental shift and start to connect to the Oneness of All and allow yourself to make that connection, you discover there is no such thing as being alone. You are, in fact, connected to all.”
This may seem obvious to you, so let me leave you with a beautiful thought — a revelation, really — that you may not have heard before. Yeshua said through one of my teammates (during the same conversation with Archangel Mikael) that my teammate pulls apart the word “alone” and sees the “all one” within it, as a reminder for her that she is not alone, that even though her mental body may at times be more disrupted or feels off, she always has the divine support. He summed it up beautifully: “Just as you’re talking with us, [through] the ‘All One’ Unity Consciousness, whether it be saying a prayer or meditating or being with friends or watching the laughter of a child, that brings you to yourself and, therefore, ALL in that moment.” Is that not awesome!
So, in the end, while the journey may seem lonely from the perspective of the physical, we are never alone from the perspective of spirit. But we can only realize that when we’re connected to our hearts, connected to love, and thereby connected to ALL. Godspeed, everyone!
