Trust, Surrender & Allow – Us Together!

In our practice group, recently, we all channeled our higher selves, or how we conceive our divine levels to be, to guide us on living the energies. We Trust this will be of interest to others as it is of value to us, and Surrender the need to control the outcomes and, yes, Allow the Great Blessings of the Universe to show up in our every days… Just like someone drowning fights their rescuer, so too, we make it harder on ourselves by our resistance – doubts, fears, exhaustion, stress…. Lighten up & brighten up, folks, a New Earth is Now. With Love & Compassion, Jennifer

Jen: All right, so taking the question: How am I Trusting, Surrendering and Allowing – in the sense of allowing myself to detach from my sense of accomplishment or my sense of goals, or [from] my sense of not trusting myself enough to choose my own path each day, for my own highest good. Instead, I question myself, and I doubt whether I am accomplishing enough, and I wonder if I’m proceeding without trying to control.  

Am I proceeding in grace and in fulfillment of the higher purpose, in fulfillment of the divine plan? And the divine plan “for me”-  as was channeled to Jo Ann [my teammate]? Not only the divine plan for Earth or for all of Life, but the divine plan for me, which is another way of saying my own sacred purpose. I think my tendency to want to accomplish gets in the way, or to feel that I must accomplish to be honoring my plan, when my plan might be just to relax and hang out for the day and play. 

So, a check-in, please, with my higher self, my Whole Self, whatever name comes forward for that, it tends to vary. For some reason, I use Whole Self. 

Whole Self: You may refer to us as Whole self. We are going to use the plural because we are Whole. You have enjoyed, in the past, exploring the identity of Whole Self, and have at times channeled an aspect of Whole Self. Felicity, one of your guides, is an aspect of Whole Self. Also you have played with various names for us, but we are you. You are the point person for the group; it is as though we had a committee, and we have put you into the role of Earth, Earth Explorer, Earth Experiencer. 

Yes, you carry with you, genetically, a drive to accomplish, a drive to be useful, to be helpful, a drive to be on task as often as possible. Some of this is rooted in the core issue of “not enough”, or worry that you are not enough, not “blank”____ enough, in any particular situation. It is also inherited from those in your family who were heroes in your mind, or who, by their life’s work, engendered your admiration for them and your respect for them. And you hope that when you have finished your earthly path, you will have some admiration, some respect for yourself. 

We would like to invite you to move this forward and to express to yourself gratitude for who you are now, what you have grown into, what you are growing- continuing to grow- into, which is the greatest expression of Whole Self that you can be within the physical realm, within the human body and within your life experiences every day.

Now.  We are not driven nor trying to excel, nor trying to perform, accomplish or become anything at any rate that is going to cause you discomfort. So use that as your benchmark, your guide post, your signal that you are straying from merely – interesting word, “merely,” there’s some judgment there – that you are straying from the simplicity of the intention to allow your Whole Self – Us – the greatest amount of property within your world. 

For you, Trust is strong, but you could elaborate. You could do a mini-seminar for yourself on how trust expresses for you every day. Are you trusting yourself to guide, choose, step forward, rest when you need to? Are you trusting yourself to surrender? Are you trusting yourself to allow? You see? Are you surrendering into the trust? Are you surrendering into allowing the flow of life to be itself? Are you allowing yourself to live a life of trust and surrender? 

Each of you is born new each morning that you awaken, each of you is a brand new human being, incarnated with the greatest possible amount of your higher self each day. But we will never push you. We will never shove, we will never say, “fit Me in”. 

It is only possible for you to live the greatest amount of your whole self, of your divine entire self, the greatest possible amount, in the physical, if you do relax, if you do release control, if you do know, deep in your heart, that trust is an intrinsic part of you —and you can align with it.  This will line up your flow with us in forming your expression of life, divinity within divinity. 

You are all divine, each one of you and you can allow more of yourselves to be present every day- but only through trusting, surrendering and allowing that flow of life. 

Remember that —without the despotic, royal “We”— we are plural, if it helps you to expand your sense of identity into: How can we live this day together? How can we walk this way together? How can we bring forward the flow of Divine Love, Divine Light, Divine Life together.

Allow your sense of you to become us, and this will assist you in relaxing into the greatest expression of All That Is within your own individual point of light —and we know this is your plan, because you chose it, and we are with you, 100% . 

if you are uncomfortable, you are pushing, or you are near tears or trying too hard or exasperated or impatient, know that this is coming from the human level. When you are in joy, when you are in laughter, when you are just peacefully pursuing whatever you are doing, whatever you are not doing, know that this is coming from all of us in concert together. 

We leave you, all three of you in this group today, with our blessings and our gratitude for this opportunity, which is so valuable for us, to speak as one together.

Allow the Energies to Serve You

Note: In our channeling group there was a lot of moaning about the “energies,” so we took it higher up… Mother never disappoints and things have been smoother since. 🙂 <3

Jen to Mother Mary: Please explain to me why things have been so chaotic lately, to where I’ve had trouble keeping my balance.

Mother Mary: Greetings to this group. This is Mary, the Mother Mary. I’m delighted to come to speak with you through this one. I am with you. Of course, I am with each of you. I am closer than you know, being part of Divine Mother and her energies imbuing you through the physical representation of the aspect of me that is Mother Earth. 

This has been a most challenging time, has it not? Yes, just as the events in your world are chaotic, in terms of what you see on headlines and in the news, so too are the energies on your world chaotic. It is attributable to solar flares, to some degree, it is also attributable to the unsettled and unpeaceful energies of all of humanity and you [Jennifer] being empathic, are noticing the agitation, noticing the difficulty people are having in elevating themselves and in maintaining a positive viewpoint.

It is also attributable to the fact that you are where you are in your cycle of the year. You are aware of this. It is wise to allow extra space in your daily life at this time to not over-schedule yourself. It will seem compelling to fit in one more thing, but it would be wiser for you if you had a period of activity for an hour or two, and then a period of inactivity for an hour or two. Or should we say, “Me” activity, the activity that you choose that is restorative to you, rather than the taking care of someone else or taking care of the goals that you have to be, well, let us just say goals.  Goals themselves can be terribly draining. 

You are ready to begin to allow us to move you through your days in alignment with the love that you yourself crave and wish to share. You are ready to allow us to fill the schedule rather than you attempting to remain on track, on task, in harness to your ideals—and we do not criticize your ideals. We understand perfectly, but we also do not want to witness you compelling yourself.  

Allow the energies to serve you, and many of the so called prickles – another allusion would be: the knap being rubbed the wrong way- a lot of this disturbance, this friction, as you pass along through your day, will dissipate greatly, and you will find yourself moving in greater comfort. 

In greater comfort, but this means being aware that you can’t be pushing, you can’t be trying, you can’t be working, and you cannot always meet another’s requests of you. So, you can find ways to decline gracefully. You can find ways to postpone. You can find ways to come up with a partial solution which is more honoring of yourself. 

And we would offer this to all of you, that you begin to allow the greater flow, the flow of the Tao, of Divine Energy to be what moves you through your day, and a little less of the efforting

To put it simply, try this. See how it feels. We think you will like it. Farewell for now and blessings to each of you.

Any topic is fair game, though we will often open with something that’s current. Lately the question of family contracts and soul contracts has come up… are they still valid, or have we moved into greater freedom to play it by ear, or even just to play? What do you think/sense/feel?

Join the Lighthouse team for a safe space to speak your heart. We get together at 11 am ET (New York) this Saturday, 18th of April and YOU are invited!! Just click this ZOOM LINK.

With Love, Sue, Jen, Rob, Adrienne, Martin, Roxanne and Paul

Maitreya: Focus On Your Heart’s Desire

A cluster of yellow and white flowers growing among dry leaves and pebbles.

Note: Lord Maitreya advises me personally in this message, and I thought it might be interesting to share with you as many of us have similar challenges. He has been very helpful in helping me to expand my practice locally, open an office, and meet lots of wonderful new people who share my curiosity and passion for spiritual growth. Another common theme he touches on here is exhaustion, which builds up, and then we need to slow down, or even, turn off and reboot. It’s all about balance: action & repose, care & self-care, pouring out & refilling… Spring is slow in my part of the world, but the cycle is surely turning: the first local flowers are blooming…so, Happy Spring everyone! Love, Jen

Jen: I guess I have a lot of questions about the best use of my time here [at my office] and the best use of my time in focusing for the next couple weeks while my son comes to visit, and the best use of my ability to channel, to reach out to Mom and to levels of her in ways that might be helpful to her at this stage [my husband’s Mom is 101 years old]. She has more and more confusion and makes less sense. But I know that that’s [on] the physical level, the personality level, and that on a spiritual level, she’s as whole as as any of us are. And so I want to speak to that level. 

So I don’t know whether Gabrielle, you’d like to speak through me now or Yeshua or Maitreya.  I’m just gonna go: “Eeny meeny, miny moe” or let you present yourself. 

Lord Maitreya: Yes, this is Maitreya. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to be a spokesperson for all three of us at this moment.  I have been close to you in these last few weeks as you have had some serious questioning about your role and your best use of focus and energy. This is a particularly sensitive time for you, as you do understand it, in a cycle of the depletions of winter, then coming into a more energetic space and not feeling necessarily filled-up or prepared or in the condition that you would like to be in to expand your work, your offering to the world. 

Let me be clear, what your heart desires to offer to the world is exactly where you need to focus. Because whether it is ultimately judged to be of value to someone else is not your concern. And this is true, whether it be for your mother-in-law or whether it be for a large audience somewhere scattered throughout the WordPress world—as you like to look at that map and see the different countries represented by readers.  

It is valuable for you to express from your heart that which is most dear to you, that which is welling up to be spoken, that which is helpful to you. 

If it is helpful to you to channel, then channel. If you sense that others may be interested in channeling by all means, invite them.  By all means, make this available to others. But it is not in any way meant to be an obligation or to be driven by the calendar. We know that you have had some doubts this month, particularly this month, especially, about the interest in your work, such that it be sustainable, to continue comfortably. 

This is just this bump that you yourself are finding yourself in. Shall we call it a little bit of a combination of a rut and a bump ? It is like your muddy roads in the Spring, in your part of the world, where you either sink into the rut or you are trying to drive on the high point in the middle of the road, so that you do not fall into the rut. 

It is a bumpy ride at this point, and you are very attuned to your seasons and to your brothers and sisters in your area, and to what they are feeling. Many feel the way you do— not a whole lot of energy left. 

Remember the image of the multiple candles reaching in all directions, each one of them lit through the fire of your passion, your dedication and your acknowledgement of the pure pleasure and fun of channeling. You have been burning all of these candles, and you are now down to the interior of the little nest of wicks, and it is one glowing and puddling and pooling “hot mess,” as you say… (laughter!). We are delighted this brings a laugh to you, to your heart. 

So. My encouragement to you would be to slow down, relax, enjoy each day, relieve yourself of any obligation whatsoever, reach for those things that give you the most sense of comfort and affection, support, alignment with those that you love. Certainly making time for your son is valuable to you. 

So slow down, relax, let the next month be another month, another way of looking at what you would like to bring forth.

This idea about [a weekly channeling for] your mother-in law is very, very generous given how depleted you’re feeling, but we were also feeling the words sweet and kind.  Your affection for your mother-in-law, in fact, your abiding love and commitment to her are precious to you. This would be an expression of this, but it would not serve you if it were a “should,” if it were an obligation, if it were a burden in any way. 

We suggest that you use your meditation time in the morning. Ask for a message. Begin speaking with [Archangel] Gabrielle, enjoy your connection, and then ask her. Ask her to speak a few words that you can share with your mother-in-law, Mary. She is a Mary too, just in a different stage of life. [Marys were priestesses in Biblical times.] [note: I asked Mom recently about her belief in angels and who she felt close to, and she said Archangel Gabriel, who is the Queen of the Angels]

Use your Otter [app]. It will make it more simple for you to type it up. We suggest, as you are seeing, just a paragraph, which, when you translate to a large enough print for her to read, you can see will fill most of a page. So a short message for her on a weekly basis would be a beautiful gift, a most beautiful gift, but it should not, as I said, be a burden to you, merely an offering from your heart, and it will be received with great love. 

You have often wondered about your connection to this one, and how you recognized her heart immediately in this life, and how valuable it was, and is, for you to spend this time in her later years, her last few years, together. There is a very strong heart connection, many different expressions of this in many different lives. You have often been connected through your spirituality, and these are the most precious of your connections. 

Sometime, if you wish to explore this in greater depth, again, use your meditation time. Focus and say, “I’d like to explore this,” and we will assist you in revealing the Akashic records that are relevant to your relationship —if this is of interest to you. Truly, what is most important is that you feel the connection. You know it is there, and you feel very happy when you have sincerely and cheerfully attended to this one, this very elderly one, who is most precious to you. 

Close-up of a sleeping cat, showing its nose and part of its face nestled in fur.
Repose… my cat teaches me balance.

So it is all about balance, the balance of your heart and its expression in the world, the balance of your desires and your energy. In every aspect of anything you choose there is the balance.  You cannot ride a bicycle without balance. You cannot do most things without balance. So it is the doing and the being. It is the feeling and the understanding. There are two wings to a bird, are there not?  This is balance. 

And it is not the duality of the third dimension which we are discussing. It is not the opposites. It is the balance within life expression, that there is an overarching connection between the inner and the outer, the above and the below, the within and the without —in each life expression. 

So thank you for allowing me to be the one to speak with you today, and we offer you the greatest love. 

Jen: Thank you, Maitreya. Thank you.

Spirit Cafe on Saturday! cU?

A steaming cup of coffee on a saucer, surrounded by coffee beans, with text that reads 'Spirit Cafe - A place to connect with spiritually minded friends.'

This from our host Sue Scofield ~

Recently, there was an algorithm on Facebook, which featured a series of interviews with people who had experienced a NDE, near death experience. How many times have we all thought, “I’m not worried about dying, it’s how I’m going to get there!”

After seeing the interviewees and hearing their stories of how beautiful and overwhelmingly love-filled it was while they were “dead,” it begs the question, “What are we afraid of?”

Perhaps you know someone who has been through a near death experience, or maybe you’ve had a NDE yourself and would like to share what it was like. We thought we would start off our next Spirit Cafe conversation with this fascinating topic, and we would love to have you join us! The doors to Spirit Cafe will open for an hour on Saturday, March 21st, at 11am EDT (New York time). Grab your favorite cuppa and let’s visit!

Dreaming the Beautiful Dream…

Here is Part 2 of the February Channeling Event with Yeshua & Mary Magdalen channeling as one voice. I mistakenly posted part 3 yesterday, and am now correcting the order. Enjoy the bonus read! Such a huge help to have their perspective in these topsy turvy times. Don’t give up hope! Love, Jen

There is much to know about what is going on now. We will give you a brief synopsis.

There is a quickening of vibration that is affecting all of the planet, and some are feeling this as excitement, and some are feeling this as as a swarm of bees within them, around them, in front of them, in their news, you see?  So each of you is responding differently to the higher vibrations, but the higher vibrations are a natural process in the choice of ascension, which was made by you as a human collective, by all of the kingdoms present on the planet and by the Mother Planet herself. All of you together have said “Enough.” 

Some of you are aware of this declaration of intention to evolve into greater peace, into greater joy, greater play, greater delight, greater contentment, greater awareness, greater commitment to the connection that you have to one another and to an honoring of your Source. Many of you are aware of this. Many of you are aware of it during your dream time, when you are sitting with your guides and your teachers, when you remember.  And many of you have not yet remembered this, or feel that it is quite new and alien and uncomfortable, because you have such a diversity of humanity, and you are, in many ways, the leaders of this civilization, because you have created it. 

And because you are carrying such beautiful diversity, it requires an enormous amount of patience to accept each person in their own place, in their own stage of growing, as perfect just as they are. You have each threaded your way through civilizations in many parts of the galaxies, and you have not always been the ones who were most aware. Sometimes you have been the ones who were least aware. But this is not to create a hierarchy. 

And as you know, if you offer your patience, your acceptance, your refusal to judge, you also can access your trust that each one of you, each one of you, will arrive in your own perfect timing into participating in this dream of Mother Earth to house you again, in your purity, in your innocence, in your glory. 

You are such creative minds and hearts; your intuition and your imagination are your treasures. So just keep on dreaming, keep on dreaming this beautiful dream, because it is creating it. What you hold dear in your heart is visible collectively to all of you. 

It is as though there were a sphere and it were completely hollow. And then there is a workshop [at the bottom] and [there] you are all busy making patches, beautiful patches, beautiful squares and triangles and hexagons and pieces of all sizes and colors, and you run up and you plant it somewhere on the inside of the sphere. Little by little, the colors are developing. Little by little, the ideas are coming together and the shapes are fitting together, and you are creating scenarios.

You are creating new ways of being together, of coming together, of interacting with one another. You are creating new ways to move about, to communicate, such as this one we are enjoying now. Some of these are things that you are already living with. Some of these are things you are still piecing together. But can you imagine that this is your creation together? When you are finished pasting all of these little bits of color all over the inside of the sphere, you will find yourselves in a new creation. That is what you are involved in now, a new creation, and we are here to assist you in any way we can. We are most excited for you.

You asked the Mother, “We have a dream. We have something we would like to go and do. Can we go and do this now?” And the Mother gathered you together, gave her blessing and said, “Of course, you are my children. I want you to be happy.”  And you all are creating a world where you can not only be happy yourselves, but you can create the circumstances whereby each one of you can step into a greater sense of well being, of ease, of abundance.

Yes, but before this can happen— you do know this, but we speak it for everyone— before this can happen, the thoughts and the fears that have suppressed this beautiful vision have to come to the surface for you to notice, and then you can say, “Ah, that’s what’s been holding me back. I was afraid. I carried this fear for many lifetimes: that I would be left behind, that I would be abandoned, that I would shrivel and die and no one would care. I carried this fear for a very long time, but I no longer believe this fear. 

No. I will write it on the tag on a tea bag, and I will compost it in my compost pile. I don’t want that thought anymore. I don’t want it to hold me back and I just don’t want to carry it anymore, so I’m going to compost it.” 

You can do this with any of your feelings, any of your fears, anything that you have outgrown and are no longer interested in supporting.

Now, we would like to turn the time over to questions. You may continue with a question that is related to what we have been discussing, or it may be a question that seems purely personal to you, but it is in some way niggling at you. It is something that you would like to settle within your mind.

Chaos or Peace? Part 3 of the February channeling event. Trying to make sense of it all… Yeshua and Mary channeled this answer together. I hope it helps…

Sue:  I guess I was wondering this: we so often see and hear and are exposed to all the chaos, as you mentioned, that circulates around the planet at this time. But it’s been my belief, and I was wondering if this is correct, but there is a much greater proportion of people who are seeking peace and whose intention is peace, much, much more so than those who are desiring to keep chaos alive and well on the planet. Is that correct? Is there a much greater percentage of people who are in a good place, as opposed to a chaotic place?

Yeshua & Mary Magdalen: Yes, you are all reacting at different levels, at different times, as well, but you are all reaching for a greater degree of harmony. The desire for peace is strong in a great majority of you. There are very few who you could actually say the desire is to continue the chaos, whether it be for profit or it be for merely to continue a downward spiral, which has been a habitual movement for quite a long time.

And as I said earlier, as we said, there is always the respect for the free will of each of you, even one who chooses to continue to spiral into a more fragmented place. Many of you are coming back into wholeness within yourselves, and you are also reaching out to one another. You are reaching your hands side-to-side, front and back, above and below. You are wishing to connect with all others on the planet in harmony, in a creation of a better world, a more joyful place for all the kingdoms of life. Yes, this is true. You are all deeply committed to this process. This is why it is moving forward so quickly.

However, consciously, there are still many who are clinging to habits of thought which include judgment, which include fear of their own survival, which include nostalgia for an earlier time which felt safer. You see, you have strong habits of thought and belief which will take some time to relax. And when enough of you — let us say, 63% — have created an alternative, which seems safe, which seems enjoyable, which seems exciting, then more of the others will let go of their too tight, still uncomfortable, but [committed] ways of thinking.

Many of you have learned to relax, away from doom-thinking or fear-based practices. You are beginning to become more proficient in spotting those thoughts that you have which are being manipulated, intentionally manipulated, by a few who enjoy it. It is like the one on the playground who loves to go and step in the puddle that the others are enjoying watching. You may be clustered around a beautiful little pool and watching some of the clarification happen and some reflection and some beauty, maybe some tiny life has caught in there, or is moving in an interesting way, and this one child will come up with his rubber boots and stick his foot right into the puddle. You see, it is not deliberate malice. It is merely immaturity.

You are coming to maturity as a group of souls, yes, but it is a continuum.

Sue: Thank you.

Y&MM:  You would not be succeeding as well as you were if there were not so many hearts joined together, truly, on this higher level, the level that you are capable of feeling now. When you are out on your boat, when you are walking through a meadow, when you are meditating, when you hear a songbird, when you pet your animal, when you make a new friend, when you do something kind for another person, your heart zings. You feel the joy!

This will become more and more contagious. Joy is contagious. And when you cannot find your joy, look for humor, look for paradox, look for soothing, look to your children, and you will realign with your joy.

Peace in The Tumult of the Waves

This is the first part of the transcript from the Peace & Love Channeling Event I held on the 22nd of last month. Enjoy! Love, Jen

Jennifer: 

I’ve invited Yeshua and Mary Magdalene today to speak with us, to give us some perspective on how to be the peace in this tumultuous world, and especially during the times when we ourselves have trouble finding our center, because it’s only by being in our own light, in our own centers, that we can be the light for others, and then we can show the way to peace. It’s not going to be “out there” until it’s “in here” for enough of us. 

This morning, while I was meditating, I got this beautiful image of the an orb like the sun, but it wasn’t huge like that, and it wasn’t hot, but it was beautiful like that, and it just fell right out of the sky and fell into the most beautiful, serene, glassy pond. This pond was in a place surrounded by trees and nature, kind of hidden in the woods. And this beautiful orb dropped into the pond, and the water splashed up around it in this corona of water. If you’ve ever seen a drop of water splash into a still plane of water, it makes this beautiful crown. Each tip of the crown forms a little drop, and then it all subsides.  And the orb fell into the water and went down into the depths, into the darkness, and it brought light there, and it glowed. 

A tarot card featuring a golden chalice held by a hand, with two pillars on either side and a dove above, set against a background of clouds and water.

And on the surface of the pond, the ripples were going out in concentric circles, first just a few feet, and then more and more and more, rippling slowly and gently toward the edges of the pond. And when it reached the edges of the pond, it leapt into the air and it moved through the grasses and through the trees, and it spread out everywhere, and it’s still spreading. Then up from the bottom of the pond emerged this hand, this great hand, and it was clutching a chalice, holding it, and the chalice was brimming over with the beautiful clear pond water. There was great abundance and great joy, and in the middle of the cup was the orb, the sun. And as the cup was lifted up high, the sun slipped out and moved back into the sky.

For me, this is a symbol of our wholeness and the ripples, a symbol of our connectedness, and the water, the medium that allows us to be connected to care for one another and to care for and love this Earth, our home, our Mother, So Father Sky and Mother Earth had this little dance. So feel, feel it now dropping into your heart and the waves rippling out, and you can hold that orb in the chalice of your heart as long as you want. When you’re ready, you can release it, so that the light of it glows upon all, All That Is. 

So I’ll be quiet for a moment until I feel Yeshua and Mary Magdalene, and then they will begin their message. Then after, we’ll have time for questions.

Yeshua/Jeshua:

Welcome. This is Yeshua. I’m most pleased to be present for you today. I am most grateful for this opportunity to be among you, to sit with you, and to be able to see each other’s faces in this wondrous way. It is not a technology you even dreamed of fifty years ago, and yet, here you are, able to see much more than you thought you could see, feel much more than you thought you could feel, expand your circles of friends, find your tribe around the world, feel your hearts beat together.

 It is my great pleasure to be present with you. Mary is here also. As many of you know, we are inseparable, and we often act as one. But I wished to come forward to say hello.  Now we will give Mary a turn.

Mary Magdalene: 

Greetings, my friends. I am so glad for this moment, this moment of joy, this moment of communion, this moment of love. We come to you on the vibration of love, and we settle into your hearts,  for those who wish to open the doors. Of course, we would not push our way in. We are committed to being a very gentle influence, and we will not go where we are not making someone more comfortable with themselves, more content with their life. Yes, it is always your choice. We like to remind you of your free will choice, because this sort of opportunity is a blessing that comes through your choice, your willingness to open and your willingness to play in this way. 

This was a way that we learned in ancient times. There were always those who were not in physical form who were teachers to us. This was true in Atlantis. This was true in Egypt. Of course, in Lemuria, you were closer to being able to slip in and out of form yourselves. But we did retain the technology, the inner alignments, so that we could pass this along to subsequent generations. And most of you were involved in such learnings in early times. There was a time when Yeshua and I visited the planet as teachers. We would be invited in a situation such as this, or even a larger circle, and we would appear. 

Now you do have your, known as, “psychics”, the ones who can see the energy. And then you have those who are able to sense the energies. And then you have those of you who are here purely in a state of trust and a knowing deep within you that we have been your teachers before, and we are happy to be so again, for a short while or a longer while, whatever you choose. 

Today, we are having tea together. We are having a little time to converse, to support one another, because you do support us. Your love is integral to the whole, your bit of love is an important piece of the puzzle. Your energy is shaped in such a way that when you are not present, there is a little hole there that is kept for you. You see, no one else is like you. Each of you has your own song to sing, your own expression of divine grace through the life that you are.

We are here together to support one another, as I was saying, to be together for the joy of being together. It is that simple.  But humans beings, in the state you are of remembering your sacred knowings of what is truth, what is enduring, what is everlasting, you are remembering and may not always have the answers. You are full of questions. 

Now you can find those answers when you meditate, when you write down your questions and sleep upon them, either literally or figuratively, you will find your guidance stronger and stronger as the years go by, but we are here to support you.

I am pausing because we have decided to present together as one voice, and it takes just a few moments for Jennifer to adjust to this.

Yeshua & MM Together: 

We may proceed. The theme for today being peace, how do you find your peace in the tumult of the waves that you find yourselves in on your planet?  It is as though the very earth is bouncing up and down, and so many are clamoring “Truth!” “Falsehood!”  “This one did this!” “This one did that!” It is a great clamor and can be very upsetting to your inner peace. 

So seek out your center. Seek out that little cave that Jennifer referred to that is within your heart. Turn your little flashlight on. You will find the answers painted on the walls. You will find the vibrations ready to ease whatever it is that is discomforting to you. There are many energies bouncing against each other.  

… Have you seen the parachute, where a group of people will stand around the edges of it and they will begin to rattle it up and down? All the way around, this enormous parachute is going like this (demonstrates with arms going up and down). This is your world at this time. If you can sit serenely in the middle of these waves, you are in a most helpful and wondrous place. 

It is a miracle that you have found yourself so strong and so bright, so full of essence. You have expanded yourselves to allow in the divine essence that you are, and that essence is expanding you. You did not know you were larger in diameter than you were ten years ago? But you are! Yes, we see you as much brighter and much more confident in your ability to walk this world with the purpose that you came for, the purpose of being one of the settled ones, one who could trust deeply in the progress of these times.

The Great Awakening Gathering

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.

An excerpt from Tam’s website Blue Diamond Tribe: https://bluediamondtribe.com/the-great-awakening/ Divine Mother and the Council of Love have been preparing us for this threshold:

— 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.

Channeling Love & Peace

On Sunday, I am going out on a limb, with trust, surrender and allowing… And I’m inviting anyone who might be interested to join me in the exquisite energy created by channeling.

It’s an amazing process, unfamiliar to many still, whereby the Channel — in this case me –centers, balances, opens and invites one or more of their guides, teachers & celestial friends to communicate. It’s as natural as calling someone on the phone. On Sunday, I am inviting Yeshua and Mary Magdalen to join their spirits, their energies, with mine. Within a few moments, I will feel them in my upper body – crown, mind, face, throat, high heart and heart centers – filling me with a peaceful, golden vitality that feels wondrous.

They come to visit — to hug, encourage, inspire, enlighten, take our questions, lift up our worries & fears, heal our suffering, fill us with hope, energize us with the higher perspective of our progress in human form and generally soak us in love.

If you’ve never been to a live channeling, it’s a lot like a combination of your first time falling in love, swimming in the ocean on a sunny summer day and climbing a mountain to look at the 360 degree views, only the experience is FELT emotionally and sustained through intuition, imagination, trust and, mostly, through love. I center in my heart, my love, my deep love for these two teachers and connect to their love for me, for all of us and for Mother Earth. From there we feel/know/remember our connection to Universal LOVE, All That Is, the LOVE that WE ARE.

After that, we can talk about anything!! One of the most amazing things I’ve learned from channeling is that they get us, they understand, they clearly have been observing us and they care!! Their assistance with our questions is thoughtful, profoundly kind and sublimely wise. It’s fascinating how they take our human tangles and gently, patiently comb them out and then braid us into a new level of knowing ourselves. After channeling, I just want to melt into my knees and jump for joy at the same time!!

Discussing this in public has not always been safe in our world, and some of you may stop reading now… but for me, there is no place safer. To know Divine Love is the goal of every spiritual path, but the path has been controlled by the Established Church for so long, we still tend to deny or hide this most precious part of ourselves. Why is this? As though anyone, by ridicule or unbelief or judgement, could steal it from us! It even sounds silly, and yet most people still avoid it or shy away. We can talk about everything else in this day and age, why not the wonder and pleasure of our own innate divinity?

All the spiritual masters of all time say we are Love, because there is nothing but Love —but it may take us a few thousand lifetimes to understand that. The mind may boggle to feel/know/remember ourselves as Divine Essence, but the body understands, the feelings dance and the heart sings.

So if you’d like to join us in person, or join our on-line room with my Zoom Brother – Rob, you can get the zoom link HERE, and more details on our Current Events page.

If not this week, then another time… I’m always open to one-one-one sessions.

Meanwhile… dream of All that you are, it’s the best dream there is.

With LOVE, Jennifer

Where is Your Peace? on the next Spirit Cafe ~

This article written by Rob Loveland recently appeared in the Council of Love’s newsletter. We have all been captivated by the 112 day walk of the Buddhist monks from TX to DC. Not just their powerful gesture and its inherent dedication but the response, the hunger for peace among all the ordinary people who witnessed this extraordinary act of love and endurance. Our team at A Lighthouse for the Soul is eager to get together and discuss this on Saturday Feb. 21- details below… please come!

Peace & Love,

Sue, Adrienne, Roxanne, Rob, Jen & Martin

Are You Following the Walk For Peace?

Since October 2025, a group of Buddhist monks have been walking 2300 miles across the United States, from Ft Worth, TX, to Annapolis, MD, to raise awareness of inner peace and mindfulness. The monks are on day 109 of the 120-day trek, currently visiting the monuments in Washington, D.C. They were even joined for a time by their loyal dog, Aloka! Many find their story very inspirational, especially given the unusually cold winter, so they are clearly achieving their intended purpose.

Regardless of whether you have been following the Walk For Peace journey (which can be done on-line at https://www.facebook.com/walkforpeaceusa), the question before you is, are you following your own path of peace? As the global political system continues to show itself to be so polarized, are you staying within that place of peace, that place beyond being sucked into the fray, where each side tries to convince the other that they are right. From the Divine Mother’s perspective, does it really matter?

This is what we would like to discuss at Saturday’s Spirit Cafe. We are sure you have valuable suggestions for how you’re dealing with the chaos to find that inner peace. Please join us to share your wisdom, to learn something, and to enjoy the company of like-minded souls.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 21st, 11 am – 12 pm EST (New York time)
