Who Wrote What?

Many readers want to know which one of us actually wrote each article.  Having experienced merging into Oneness with each other and All, we no longer have a desire or need to individually claim ownership to an article or posting.  The truth is, we are co-creators from the moment the article comes to our attention until it is in full form.  When you are in your full power you are no longer seeking acknowledging pats on the back, you're just speaking your truth.

Life Force Energy

 

 


Both of us learned a number of different healing modalities before our Higher Self drew us together.  No one modality, whether Angel Healing, Healing the Masters' Way, Reiki, Shamanism, Tantric or Taoist was 100% effective in itself for healing all the issues Spirit presented.  However, there was a common thread among all, using Life Force Energy to resolve them.  Some healing modalities channeled Life Force energy directly from outside Spiritual Forces or Beings.  In others we served as the conduit or channel for Life Force energy transmission.  Still others addressed both directly and indirectly the use of a client's life force experienced as sexual energy.  

Life Force is the key to healing and clearing anything in our physical, mental, emotional, spiritual and etheric bodies that block us from the experience of Paradise in New Earth.  Those blocks stem from attachments to people, places, things, old wounds, thought forms and belief systems.  By using our Life Force energy we can embrace and clear these blocks on our own.  Not needing another to heal us, means we can maintain constant healing for our selves.  This is how we increase and maximize the speed of our spiritual growth and enlightenment, which is the key to making New Earth our reality.  One crucial aspect to becoming our own efficient, thorough healer is to remember our Life Force is enhanced greatly when we experience ourselves as our own Source, and when we can Be One with All. 

We'll start by understanding the two basic energies that form our Life Force.  We refer to them as Divine Masculine energy and Divine Feminine energy, although others may know them as Yin and Yang.  Use whatever name feels right for you.  Every human is an embodied Soul that carries both of these energies.  Someone with a physical body that visually appears male does not need, or have, only Masculine energies.  Someone with a female body does not only have Feminine energies.  Each person has both energies.  We can express them in different ways depending on our Divine Plan and our chosen socialization, but we must learn to keep them in balance.  This is the first step in moving towards using our Life Force to clear and embrace all of us.

The entire universe is in balance between the Divine Masculine and the Divine Feminine.  We recognize that saying Feminine has many readers think of a woman and saying Masculine has many think of a man.  A similar thought thread has many equate the merging of these two energy forms as sexual.  In truth, the merged energy is Pure Life Force, and we experience it as a most Sacred and Primal Creative Energy.  Given how many social structures treat sex as base or wrong, and women as being of less value than men, we ask that you stay open to Life Force, the Divine Feminine and the Divine Masculine, being far more than your sexual energy. We will explore using Life Force as a tool for your own healing, and a vehicle for experiencing New Earth as paradise here and Now.

Please consider that planet Earth is now in full balance between its own Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine.  The same is true for the Sun, moon, other planets and stars.  Earth desires us to experience the True Reality of New Earth.  That begins when we experience the full balance of our own Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine energies, our healthy Life Force energy.

Our sense is that Earth chose to be the host for the experiment with Separation Consciousness.  Many brave souls chose to participate in the experiment but it will be coming to an end for those choosing New Earth.  The experiment with Separation Consciousness has allowed All That Is to experience trillions of different aspects of Its Self as All That IS.   All the physical Shifts, Creations and Endings we observe in the Universe are manifesting from a merging of the Divine Masculine energy with the Divine Feminine energy in a Sacred Union to form a new Life Force in other levels of reality.

For Jeremiah, Source, Spirit or God has long been experienced as the Mother Principle, the Father Principle and The Beginning.  Please notice how the use of languaging something that defies quantification introduces a sense of separation by speaking it to others.  Saying Mother, Father, Masculine or Feminine may spark a sense of separation to the energy of Life Force for you, yet this is not how it is experienced in Spirit.  There is no separation between the two, yet they are uniquely different.  Neither is more important than the other.  In Spirit, the Life Force energies merge and blend into Oneness.  This Oneness is our Divine essence.  For the purpose of understanding their unique differences we speak of them as Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine but please try not to create separation with them.

Our sense of the Mother Principle or the Divine Feminine Energy is that it is magnetic in its nature; thus IT swirls around, enveloping, holding, nurturing, intuiting.  IT also occurs as the Great Void of Nothingness, pregnant with all possibilities.  Our sense of the Father Principle or the Divine Masculine Energy is that it is primarily electric in nature which means it is directional, going out or coming in.  The Divine Masculine holds the space for the Divine Feminine, conferring with Her and The Beginning, developing joint plans and then going out to seed them as a new creation using Life Force.  These two energies are always in balance as Life Force in every level of Reality, except for humans on Earth.  We can become out of balance due to our environment and experiences. 

The mention of masculine energy merging with feminine energy brings to mind sex for many.  It may also sound as if it requires the coming together of a man and women in physical form.  The merging begins within our self.  The blending of a man and woman to create Life Force should be done after each are fully owning their own inner Divine Masculine and Feminine.  Even then, sex in our global society is full of distortions that have sexuality and individual beliefs distorted by religious and legal systems which hold that there is something wrong with sex, rather than it Being the Divine Energy it IS.  We see from our connection during Universal Sacred Service, that this energy is Pure Life Force which we experience as a most Sacred and Primal Creative Energy.    For us to work with and balance our life Force energies as ONE, we need to be fully connected with and consciously aware of our spiritually true self or our "I Am Self."  Next we'll explore the nature of our human bodies to include our I Am Self.

I Am Self

 
We've mentioned the I Am Self in our articles and suspect many have wondered what that means.   This article will address the question from our spiritual experience, and  explain our human relationship to the I Am Self and All That IS.  The phrase, "I Am Self" means 'our spiritually true self'.  Some of you may know the I Am Self as your Soul or your Higher Self.  The I AM Self is that aspect of each of us which is always connected to and part of All That Is.  All That IS may occur to you as God, Source, Spirit, Tao or The Beginning of All That IS. 

Saying "I AM" or "I Am Self" is claiming ownership to our spiritually true self.  Saying "I Am That I Am" additionally claims ownership of being fully part of "All That IS."  All That IS means, all that has ever been, is, or will ever, BE.  Essentially this is understanding our existence has no beginning or end, even though our physical body will expire some day.

As we humans connect with our spirituality, we start understanding our true self and the person we intended to be before we came into this body.  When we discover and connect to our true self beneath the shell of body, mind and emotions, we hold gratitude, peace, understanding, fulfillment and joy for every experience in life.  No longer will we feel hopeless, helpless, depressed, stagnant, lonely or abandoned.  God is the essence of All That IS and God is the life force within each of us. 

This is the point where we discover the importance of finding that place of truth and Light within ourselves. We must allow our inner truth to be the pilot instead of the passenger of our journey towards awakening and enlightenment.  It is through our true self that we begin to unravel the secrets of our life purpose and unfold the map of our life path.  This true self is what we call the I Am Self.

The I Am Self is that fullness of self which is always connected to All That Is.  It has always been, is and will forever BE connected.  We experience humans as having a five body system, physical, mental, emotional, spiritual and etheric.  The physical, mental and emotional bodies are those required to embody as human beings.  Those are the bodies we leave behind on transition or death.  The etheric body is always connected and fully empowered by All That Is.  The spiritual body, being closely entwined with our earthly bodies and experiences, can take on attachments and blocks.  The attachments and blocks associated with our earthly bodies are part of separation consciousness.  It is our understanding that the I Am Self does not take on attachments and blocks.  It is always aware of It's own Truth. 

Our Soul or I Am Self began as a spark of All That Is, as All That Is sought to know Its Self.  Before our birth into the human body we were a soul, an energy, an I AM Self.  We will be the I Am Self when we leave the body behind.  As an unborn I Am Self we made plans for our next embodiment.  These Divine Plans were for spiritual growth and included objectives for experiences and learning, as well as intentions for being of service.  Jody likes to think of our earthly visits as similar to attending college.  She sees it like this.  Plans are made by our soul prior to entrance into the body.  Our soul decides what it wants to learn, what 'courses' or experiences it will need to gain that wisdom, then it decides how long it will take to complete the required curriculum.  Just as the student chooses what campus, housing, books, and classes will be needed, we choose what body, sex, parents, siblings, and environment will best serve us.  Our life on earth is solely for our soul's education.

Our I AM Self is perfect in every way since it remains totally connected to All That Is or God, whether we are consciously aware or not.  It is only through our mind and ego that we feel less than perfect or separated from All That Is.  Our I Am Self knows nothing of fear, judgment, hatred, resentment, betrayal, or self ridicule.  These are acquired through the human mind and ego, even though our true self is perfect and One with All That IS.  Our true essence is our I AM Self or Soul.  The ego and human brain mind is like a barrier of amnesia to the beautiful truth of who we are and the purpose we embodied for. 

An essential part of our Sacred Service is holding our Light such that it assists others in awakening to the truth of their own true self.  The following affirmation speaks to this purpose.  To experience this, let your self move into your own meditative space within and then speak the words of the affirmation aloud, with as much emotion and intention in the words as you can bring.

Weekly Focus

In each newsletter we will provide a Weekly Focus for our readers.  Our intention is to help you incorporate the new information into your daily life and harmonize gracefully with the shifts in awareness that arise from it.   You may find it helpful to start a journal specifically for documenting these focal areas.  Often messages initially come through without all the details and specifics.  Keeping a journal of your messages, growth, and awareness can prove excellent for pulling all the pieces together in the future.  We both keep daily journals for this purpose and find ourselves referring back to them quite often.


This Week's Assignment

Consistent practice of connecting with activities that bring you passion and pleasure will increase your life force energy.  This is another secret to having conscious, consistent access to your life force.  You want to make time for these activities every day. If you only set aside a couple weeks a year to go on vacation in order to experience peace, balance, harmony and pleasure, you are not allowing it to be part of every day.    

Where do you find pleasure and passion?  Not just in the big things, but in the little moments of your life?  Think of activities that make you feel 'on top of the world' or 'excited and inspired'.  When you're in a state of passion and pleasure, your Life Force is flowing.  Make a personal "Pleasure List".  Write down at least 15 daily activities that bring you pleasure and be sure to do at least 3 every day.  They can be as simple as calling a friend, taking a warm bath, walking in nature, meditating, or working in your garden. 

Now, write about your experience in your journal.  Document how you felt during and after the activity, explain how you felt the shift in awareness of your life force.  The more you practice experiencing Life Force in general, the higher your frequency will become, and the more pure, balanced and pronounced the two energetic aspects of your Life Force will be. 



Questions & Answers

 

The following question came from a student in our telecourse after practicing a homework assignment.  The assignment asked them to practice running the Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine energies separately to get in touch with how each felt.

 

Q:       "I had big challenges with feeling the difference between magnetic (Divine Feminine) and electric (Divine Masculine) energies.  What I ended up doing is just focusing on people I knew and going from that.  Any insights or assistance I appreciate greatly."

A:        You are experiencing exactly what you need given the attachments, blocks and belief systems that need to be released.  It is part of the process of becoming more healthy in all of your bodies.   As we work towards experiencing Life Force energy in a fully balanced form you will become more adept at running the higher frequency energies.   This is because the more you clear blocks and attachments, the more pure and true to the "Divine" your energy will be.  For now you may still experience much distortion stemming from unreleased blocks and beliefs around personal experiences with what you considered healthy male and female energies in your lives.

Bringing up 'whatever' shows itself is perfect because it will illuminate what must be embraced and released.

This is why we place so much importance on the need to also follow an effective full body physical detoxification practice during this time.  When your physical body is cleared, it also eases the process of ascension.

There is nothing to worry about.  Consistent practice of connecting with the activities that bring you passion and pleasure will also increase your life force energy.  You should make sure you include such activities every day. This is another secret to having conscious, consistent access to your life force.  If we set aside a couple of weeks a year to go on vacation in order to experience peace, balance, harmony and pleasure, we are not allowing it to be part of every day.
