by Jennifer, posted in Channeling, Death, Spirit Cafe, Yeshua

Dear Friends, we are looking forward to another SPIRIT CAFE this Saturday, at 11 AM Eastern time, for our monthly conversation from the spiritual perspective. in our personal lives, there have been several deaths, real grieving, and much reflection on the larger aspects of transitioning from our old world, and ways of doing things, into Nova Earth, a collective experience we are creating. In other words, we are all experiencing a kind of death on some level, we are all in a stage of transition, so we will be exploring that this coming Saturday in our hour-long group conversation. You are very welcome to join us. Here’s

AND— Here is part of last week’s group channeling session in which Yeshua/Jeshua speaks on this topic.

” Jen: We are wanting to understand more about this grieving process and the value of grieving and the purpose of grieving to help us transition into Nova Gaia, in all her glory, into creating all that we’re going to be creating. Is grieving the first step?

Yeshua (via Jen): This is Yeshua. I am first to come forward to make a commentary on this. I am glad to be here tonight with all of you. It is our great pleasure to listen in and hear your musings and your wonderings and your Insights, and we are very pleased to be invited to elaborate, in brief.

My insight is that, yes, it is important to go through the grieving for there to be welcomed in a new life. When there has been a loss of the old, whether it was a relationship, a loved one, or a stage of your life, there is a period where there is grieving. There are tears, when you realize you will not see these ones again. There are tears and there is uncertainty and there is all manner of emotion: denial, irritation.

Anger does not have to be always full blown rage. Sometimes it is irritability, but it is an important stage when you have reached the end of one road, one path, one adventure, one stage of life, and you are moving into a new one.

And this is happening collectively. This is the first time in a very long time in which you as a humanity, as humanity, are stepping forward into the new, leaving the old behind. And it is a very important passageway. It is a ritual, a rite of passage. And it has its recurrences, and it has its experience, which is common to all of you, although you will not all feel it simultaneously.

All of you are feeling, consciously or unconsciously, levels of this grieving, and so it is a part of things. It is a root of the anger being shown on your planet at this time. It is certainly a root of the denial. It is the clinging to the past. It is the romanticizing how good the past was, when, in fact, continued life is full of promise, full of wonder and new, unimagined experience, which will be fantastic in many ways. You see? Why look backward and go, “Oh, but we are so close”?

Jennifer is continually being given this image of the graduation. When one is together with a small group of people, and one becomes very, very close, and you are nearing the final months of being together, you have been together for years, and you’re very bonded, and there is a form of grieving which is experienced. And there is the sense of lostness and not knowing what the new will be when you are then parted. You’ve had your hugs and your tears and all of this. It is very similar to what is happening now on the Earth.

And some of you are graduating, and some of you are just starting high school, but this is fine. There is a bit of a continuum, but you are all still embarking on this great adventure together, and it is definitely a part of it.

Thank you for letting me participate. Thank you for inviting me.”

SPIRIT CAFE ~ on Riding the Waves

The Lighthouse Team of Council Of Love Teachers, Sue, Adrienne, Rob, Roxanne, Martin and I, are all excited to announce that we’ll be holding the next SPIRIT CAFE conversation on Saturday, APRIL 12th at 11 am EDT (Eastern time)!!!  

We so look forward to these rich open conversations on relevant topics.  This month, all our chats have led to “Riding the Waves of Change”. How are we getting through the rough and tumble of this time of transformation, intact and with grace? So much seems to be coming at us, too fast!  

What we are learning in the melee is that everything seems to serve a purpose for good. Every day is full of miracles. Everything we experience can be seen as a challenge and a blessing.

But it often takes our friends to help us understand this alchemy of perspective, to see the hard and scary times as invitations to align. And what’s the quickest way to alignment? Let’s talk about it on Saturday! Join us? It’s free and you are most welcome to listen in or add your perspective.

The following is a related inner conversation with an Angel called Alashara. She speaks to our theme in a truly loving and helpful way, coaching us in how to ride these waves every day and reminding us of the power of our choice.

Your Joy is Innate, channeled by Jennifer Joy Donaldson April 4, 2025

Alashara: Yes, this is Alashara. I am here to remind you to be open to surprises.  You have -at your fingertips – any one of us to have a conversation with.

I step forward because I wanted to remind you that you have prepared for this time, that you have within you all knowledge. You can see what is before us. You can see your way through the tunnel. You know the shape and the beauty and the wonder of what is at the end of the tunnel. This has all been shown to you in preparation for this journey. It is there for you. There are occasions when you will shudder a little, a spider falls down from the top of the tunnel and you go, “Whoa!”

But you are very good at re-centering yourself.  And do not for a moment berate yourself for taking the time that it takes to recenter, to come back to your place of peace, your place of comfort, your place of wisdom, your inner strength. It is there, and this is the human journey.

These are the moments that knock you off your feet, the waves that knock you off your feet, and you are sitting in the midst of the swirl, and your feet are in the air and you’re laughing, but you find your balance. Do you come out a bit wet, and it takes a while to dry off?

You were wondering where and how to find your joy in the midst of the discomfort of change. Yes. Remember, your joy is innate. Your joy is a very deep part of you. It is the core of you. But allow yourself the entire journey. Allow yourself all of those sensations, all of those emotions. And you do know you can tug on us when you are feeling extreme discomfort.

As far as what to tell others at this time, do not hide the joy, if you need to make a headline: “sharing joy In the midst of misery, in the midst of fear, in the midst of doubt and worry”- share your joy.

You are wondering: How, in a time when so much creativity is surfacing, so many ideas are coming forward— “Oh, we could do this. Oh, we could do this, we could do this, we could do this,” and then you find that you are doing more and you find you are more exhausted. Yes, it is a time of adjustment in this way. 

You will find yourself burgeoning. This is an old word, burgeoning, such as, the Earth is now burgeoning. Much is growing, much is popping up, just springing forth, and it is greatly beautiful.

Allow yourself to be comfortable,  no matter what happens. Allow yourself to trust the pacing. Trust the flow to contain the best speed for each day. Do not distrust the flow. We have invited you over and over to allow the flow. So why distrust it? Why label it? Why? Why say it is too fast or there is not enough of it, or there is not enough time. Just know that what there is time for is in the perfect flow. What you feel like doing is in the perfect flow.

You do not need to commit yourself to everything way ahead of time. You can always be clear that you will choose what is in your highest alignment at the time. And it is not always possible to see this ahead of time. And others will wait. They will go about choosing their best flow.

You choose, and then it manifests. And then you ride the waves. But it begins with choice. The choice is the initiator. If you choose a peaceful day, choose a peaceful day. Watch it unfold. Begin your morning with your choice, your conscious choice. “Today, I choose a peaceful flow”, and even surprises will come to you as delightful rather than alarming.

And you, if you are being empathic, will pick up on everybody else’s feelings. But that does not need to swamp you, that does not need to upend you.  Just say, “I notice.  I notice there are strong feelings about this. We will be all right.”  Be there when you can for another’s feelings, just calmly, and trust them to handle it.

You have all been learning, some of you more consciously than others, but you have all been learning. … So trust this and know that you are doing very, very well, and not only that, we are very grateful for your sense of dedication and purpose, for your love you are bringing the planet. We are with you in that love. We will restore you. We will add our love to your love. We want to share our love, too, on the planet. Thank you for channeling. Thank you for being in relationship with all else.
