Blessings to you, my beloved friends. I am Orion. I think that there is a great challenge in shifting consciousness for each one of you. Indeed, you are well entrenched within the material condition, the state of your world, its vibrational condition, as you would call it. Therefore, all the elements that conspire to bring you into consciousness are directed toward material, toward the mindful and toward the sensations of the body. In this way, having true spiritual consciousness, that of the soul, is a very challenging thing indeed. You go along life with the ambition of shifting consciousness toward soul awareness. Indeed, at times, you are successful. Yet, generally, as you navigate the world, you do so in this more rudimentary consciousness of the mind and the body.
This is completely understandable, my friends. Yet, you have elected to be the harbingers of truth, the ones who will bring and usher in a new consciousness to the world. Thus, you cannot capitulate into the material to the point where you are like many others who are entrenched within this rudimentary consciousness. Yet, we encourage you to be out in the world as well, to be engaged with humanity. For how else can you teach, demonstrate and exhibit this new shift of consciousness but in your daily life? Yet, as you continue to engage the well-worn patterns of behaviour and thinking, then it is very difficult indeed to shift from that place to the place of soul, but you have the fuel to do so.
This great gift of Love from God, the Creator, it is empowering your soul and each day empowering it a little more. As you continue to allow your soul its place in your consciousness, as you continue to walk in the world motivated by that consciousness, so you will be embedded within the consciousness of soul. It may not feel that way now, as you travel back and forth between these two places, but it will indeed become more predominant, soul awareness being influential in your actions, thoughts, behaviours and perceptions. This is how it is with soul awakening. It does not come in a big onrush. It is not obvious. There is not a switch to flick into soul consciousness. It is a gradual transition to that place.
We are here to assist you, to encourage you toward that state of being, so that you are truly who you are meant to be, an example of what humanity is meant to be, without all the distractions and conditions that shroud and distort that expression of soul. The expression of soul requires purity, direction, clarity, purposefulness and dedication. These things come bit by bit as you confront the challenges in your life, as you begin to see the differences and discern those differences, so that you may walk in the world changed, truly changed and transformed by this Love, by soul consciousness.
This is why so many gather around you, your stellar friends, angel friends and bright spirits. For it is quite obvious to us that what you face, the challenges that are before you, are great and the impetus to draw you away from soul consciousness is great. The beautiful, caring spirit of God brings the support that you need, the help that is required. At times, you ignore this, at times, you embrace it. Because you are human there is no consistency. Each day is a different reality, a different challenge, a different opportunity. You bend with the wind of change within you and at times you resist it. At times, you are enthralled by it. Yet, as I have said, you continue on the journey, strengthening the consciousness of soul to the point where you will be integrated with that consciousness to the point that the material will not distract, the material will not dictate, but the spiritual will indeed be predominant. When that is so, then what can manifest through you, what can be your being expressed in the world, will be incredible, will be powerful and beautiful.
We make our way inch by inch toward that goal and you are continuing upon this path. None of you is shirking your responsibilities nor your dedications. How you approach this is unique to you. Indeed, there are quite a variety of perspectives here, but each of you knows that the key is receiving this great gift of Love from God. Each of you is applying this knowledge into your life and into your prayers. At times, the focus wanes, as I say, you are human, but primarily you are dedicated. You continue to do the work required and we continue with our work with you, in accordance to your desire and your efforts, so you reap the rewards and the support that is needed. You will continue to find your way, as your eyes open to the truth, as you continue to discover your true self, as you continue to discover true meaning in life and true purpose in the universe, finding that God is there for you, His Hand certainly is upon you, seeking to uphold you and uplift you.
My friends, it is the most magnificent journey you can take, not only in this world but in all worlds, including the spirit worlds. It is a magnificent journey, leading to the highest of outcomes and blessings. Possibilities and joy all come in the blessing Touch of this Divine Love. How wonderful it is! I urge you to be dedicated to receive this, for the shift of consciousness will come when the soul is empowered by Love, awakened by Love and that part of you that is of the human condition will stand defenceless to the impetus of this soul consciousness. Its shift inexorably toward awakening and transformation must come. For the laws are in place and you have enacted these laws through your efforts. The outcomes are inevitable, the timing of which is for you to decide.
For this is the way of the world and the universe. You choose every day. As you seek, as you seek to express yourself, you choose every day what that might be. From what source will come your words, your thoughts and your actions? For there are two distinct places, as we have said often. The goal is for both to merge into one. Yet, first, you must dedicate and shift toward that soulful place. That, in turn, will empower the union of your two centres of consciousness into one. It comes ever so slowly, but indeed, it must come and it will come. We are excited by the prospects, intrigued, of what may come of your true self expressed in truth. We continue to minister to you, as do many, in anticipation of the outcomes, the birthing of your new self into the world. It is coming. Oh, how beautiful that will be! How magnificent will you be, my beloved friends. We shall see. We shall see.
God bless you, my friends. I am Orion. My love is with you. I stand by you in anticipation, in love and acknowledgement. God bless you all, beloved souls. God bless you all.
