Akashic Records of July 2008

a message from Akashic Records channeled by Jen Eramith MA
Thursday, 26 June, 2008

What energy and experiences can we expect collectively in July 2008?

July 2008 contains the energy of dynamite as it expands into open space. The energy is like that of a super nova -- a star exploding. There is not a large, singular event in which this energy occurs; instead, the energy will feel like a series of explosions in your personal and collective lives over the course of the month. This expanding energy can create a great deal of clarity. It also can create a great deal of discomfort. The experiences that are likely to occur this month provide further evidence of the fact that limiting structures and beliefs will no longer work in an expanding and enlightening world. Belief systems and institutions that create limitations on individual freedom and expression will continue to be brought to light and dissolved more rapidly than ever during this month.

For some of you, particularly if you are attached to the limiting beliefs or the oppressive institutions that come to light during July, you may feel as though there has been an explosion. You might find yourselves feeling shocked, surprised, disheartened or afraid. But for those of you who have been continually looking for more expansion in your lives already -- for those of you who have been continually noticing oppressive forces and finding ways to work outside of the oppression, to work outside of the limitations imposed by your societies or institutions -- you are likely to find that you feel relieved, like pressure has been let off. In July, many of you may find yourselves thinking, "Finally people are noticing that things are not working!" You may find scandals, public conflicts, political battles, corruption coming to light; all of these things will continue to occur and even increase in July of 2008.

Just as with any experience, you have a choice. You always have a choice between love and fear. Even as your hearts break, even as you feel afraid, you can continue to choose love. Continue to look for the sparkle inside you that remains connected to your own humanity and that cares for the suffering of others. Look inside yourselves for that which wants to open. Yield and hold onto that which is precious in human life. As much as you can, move toward that sense of love for yourselves and love for your fellow human beings. It is your actual sensation of love that will help you navigate the explosive energy of July 2008. In fact, if you can stay with that heart energy, you will actually find a sense of freedom on the other side of the explosive energy -- a sense that after the dust has settled, there is more room for you to be your true self with a more open heart. There is more room for thinking together, for coming up with new solutions; there is a great deal of freedom available amidst this explosive energy.

How can we best work with the energy and experiences in July of 2008?

The best way to work with this is to try your best to stay connected. Stay connected to your feelings and to the people around you. You are likely to see collective events such as war, famine, political arguments and scandals that are hurtful. You will be tempted to close yourselves down, to try not to pay attention, to try not to think about it too much or try to limit your interactions with other people in order to protect yourselves. In the past it may have been useful for light workers to shield their energy from the heavier, denser energies in the world by closing off their attention to the world. It is not longer useful to do so. Because we are in the year 2008, when it is necessary to answer your calling of service to the world, the best way to work with this experience is to open your hearts and to look for a way to connect. Look for a way to engage. If it breaks your heart too much to see people suffering from famine, then turn to the people in your neighborhood and find someone who could use your help there, where it is not overwhelming for you but helps you open your hearts and become the softer, more connected version of yourself.

Let your hearts break open to a more tender connection. Do your best to avoid numbing your emotions or avoiding your emotions during the month of July. This will be a time when you can take whatever you have learned about yourself in therapy or counseling and take it out to the world. Find ways to deal with your emotions as they are happening rather than stuffing them inside. If you are angry, then go for a run or get in your car and yell or paint or write or talk with a friend; find something to help process your anger as it arises. If you are confused, find the courage to talk to someone, find the courage to ask people for the information that you need. If you are sad, let yourself cry. This is a month where any kind of withholding, any kind of pretending is only going to make the explosions feel bigger and more difficult. This is an excellent month to be incredibly genuine and gentle with yourselves and with others.

Are there any power days, or days that are important to look forward to, in July 2008?

July 5 through 7 are likely to feel intense. In the United States you will see literal fireworks on July 4. Take the image of those fireworks and assume that the energy is going to feel that way on July 5, 6, and 7. Those three days provide a time when things are likely to come to light and be seen -- when whatever you are intending or whatever you are engaged in is likely to have more energy behind it. It can be a very sparkly, playful energy, but just like with fireworks, there is a lot of heat involved. Be mindful about what you engage with on these days. Do not engage in activities that you did not intend. Be intentional with these days. You may find yourselves feeling accident prone, so it will serve you to plan ahead, know where you will be and when, and do your best to listen to your intuition.

We are not talking about avoiding danger here; we are talking about being sure that you are where you want to be so that your energy is placed where it needs to be. There will be an extra oomph of energy and you want it to be in the right place for you, rather than in a place you did not intend. For instance, if you do not really want to spend time with a certain person, make sure you do not spend time with them on those days because you may experience a conflict or feel overrun by that person. On the other hand, if there is someone you really want to connect with in your life, make sure to spend time with that person on these days because that extra energy can help you find the deeper connection. Be intentional about where and with whom you spend your time on July 5, 6 and 7.

July 14 is a day that will bring a softening. It is a day that acts as an anchor for the rest of the month. It is an excellent day to help reground yourselves, to turn your attention to the things in your life that are stable, steady, and that make sense to you. For some it might mean riding a bike, spending time with your children, working in your garden do something that is grounding -- something that feels normal and regular for you to help you feel like you have a routine.

July 27 is a turning point. During the month, you may feel like there is a merry-go-round swirling around you. During the month, there will be many events to keep track of in your personal lives and in the news. July 27 is the day on which you are likely to land in a steady position and to turn your attention to the places where your energy will likely be spent for the next several months. July 27 is a good day to sit and reflect on where you have been and where you want to go. It is an excellent day for goal setting and it will be an important day for restructuring, for looking back and determining what structures you have had in your life and then look forward and decide what structures will serve you best. Are there routines in your life that do not serve you anymore? Are there routines, disciplines or practices that you want to engage moving forward? Does it really help you to wake up at the same time every day or do you want to wake up earlier or later? Are you getting enough sleep? Do you eat at the times that work best for you? July 27 is an excellent time to renegotiate the structures that weave your life together. Things are going to change beginning on this day. We cannot say in advance what that will look like for you as individuals, but watch for change and know you have the power to make decisions about the nature of change in your lives. The changes that occur on this day or the changes that become evident to you or evident in your collective or in the news or media, are meaningful. They are semi-permanent. Pay attention to them and determine what they mean for you and what actions you want to take moving forward in your life given the events that occur on July 27.

July 30 is a day of softening. It is an important day to reach out and make amends. Apologize to anyone you feel you have wronged. Explain your position to anyone you feel does not understand you. It is a day when you will be able to speak and hear one another better than usual and it is important to remain heart-centered and move toward softening and tenderness on July 30th.

Do the events of July 4, 1776 in the United States, such as the signing of the Declaration of Independence, have any resonance or relevance for us in July of 2008?

Yes. The trajectory of the United States is particularly important in the year 2008 because this is the year to herald your calling, and the U. S. is working to realign itself with its true calling. The year 2008, for the trajectory of the U. S., provides a radical revolution. The direction in which the U. S. moved at the beginning of the year is likely to be 180 degrees from the direction it will be taking toward the end of the year. One of the reasons that you are likely to see this explosive energy in July is because the month of July is the birth month of the nation of the U. S. The energy is helping to clear the trajectory of the nation, and this is the reason that secrets cannot be swept under the rug -- they cannot be kept out of view as easily as they could have been before. You have seen throughout the world, particularly in the U. S., corruption come to light in the last five years.

As individual humans move through Enlightenment and become empowered, they are less likely to blindly believe the words of their government or blindly accept the direction of oppressive institutions. As the shift of individual Enlightenment occurs, it has made it not only possible but necessary for corruption or secrets to be unveiled and seen. As more and more people see what is true, fewer institutions can withhold their secrets. This is one of the reasons you have seen much corruption or scandalous news come to light in recent years. This leads us to July of 2008. The U. S. has a deep commitment, at a soul level, to come into integrity. Any parts of the U. S. government that have managed to hold secrets have managed to do so by holding them extra hard, which is the reason they have not come to light yet so far in the last five years. The explosive energy in July is due in part to the fact that the things that will come to light are things that have been held extra hard. When they come into visibility, they will come with a pop!

There is a likelihood that this will be a destabilizing force in terms of government and collective endeavors. This is one of the reasons that we encourage you to reach out to one another and stay connected to your fellow humans this month -- because in the U.S. the original calling was to empower individual humans to create a collective experience together. Over time, that power has been corrupted so that the institution is empowered to direct the lives of individuals. The original commitment of the U.S. as a soul is to return its roots -- not roots of independence, but the root of the power of individuals to create a collective experience.

The word "independence" no longer suits an Enlightened world. You are not returning to a sense of independence, you are returning to a knowledge of the power of the individual to enable and support a collective experience. It is actually not a deeper commitment to independence, but a deeper commitment to interdependence and the connections between you. When you are aware of the inherent connections between you and among you as individuals, then you recognize your interdependence. You also recognize the incredible power each one of you has to change the world.

The true nature of the soul path of the U.S. is to embrace the power of the individual. The thing that has changed since the year 1776 is that you now understand the incredible importance of connection and your interdependence on one another. The vital lesson that the U.S. has to add across the globe as you become a global culture is to remember the power of the individual; it is from your individual choices that you create collective reality; it is through the power of the individual to direct their own fate that you decide together the direction of the human race. The piece that the U.S. has been missing is the understanding that wisdom comes through embracing your interconnection, rather than imagining the individual empowerment leads to independence. That is the significance of those events in 1776 and the way they have an opportunity to come full circle in the year 2008.

What do we have to learn from the global food crisis which is being exacerbated in July of 2008?

The global food crisis is one in a series of phenomena that are making it abundantly clear that you are interconnected. It helps you see that when one person makes a choice, that choice actually does affect everyone else in the world; and while those individual choices and their individual outcomes are not easy to connect in a linear form, it is not easy to see exactly how the gallon of gas someone in Texas puts in their tank does lead to lack of food for a child in Malawi, that the connections exists. It has been too overwhelming to the human mind to comprehend all of those connections, the incredible complexity of the interdependence of human beings on Planet Earth and the connectivity between you. But as you move into Enlightenment, you are now able to comprehend it. The first step is comprehension. You are able to comprehend the complexities and therefore, as you become more enabled to comprehend it, you become more accountable for how you act with that information. The second step is accountability. Eventually you become more empowered to make choices that make a positive difference in the world that you can see. You can actually sense how your choices are making a difference and it is an incredible empowerment when you can come to that understanding. The third step is empowerment. For most of the planet, the global food crisis is providing the first step in this process, that of comprehension. You have been building up to this global food crisis collectively through countless choices made by individuals and institutions in the world. You have been heading toward this for hundreds of years. It is happening now. This is the year that the global food crisis is reaching a breaking point; is reaching a point at which it can no longer be ignored.

This is the year in which the human mind, as a collective entity is capable of comprehending how individual choices have led to this and how individual choices can lead you back out. Whether humanity comes to that comprehension and reaches the next stage of accountability is yet to be seen, but this is what you have been gearing up for. The food crisis is just the beginning. You will see a water crisis, you have already seen a fuel crisis. You will see more water shortages and you will see a shortage of aid when it is needed most. In the moments when natural disasters or war occur, you will see, there is always a shortage of aid, but you will see further development of what you saw in hurricane Katrina or the cyclone in Myanmar. You will find that there is an extreme shortage of emergency services. As you see these crises, the question then becomes -- What will you do for the person next to you? Rather than waiting for an institution to direct you, what will you as an individual do for the people around you who are suffering? It will become necessary for each of you to choose to act out of your own empowerment, rather than to wait for an institution to direct you. It is time to answer your calling to service.

The most likely outcome is that as you see your connections and you take accountability for what you can do with your life, then as a collective you eventually become empowered to care for one another -- to steward one another in a way that defies institutional control. This is where in religions you find the phrase to "do unto others as you would have done unto you" or the direction to "bear one another's burdens." These are not just religious idioms; they hold the keys to Enlightenment and your survival as a human race. It is not just an idea and it is not something that your institutions will do for you. It is something that you as individuals will choose to do, and that is the only thing that will resolve the food crisis. You are most likely, in July, to simply see further evidence of the food crisis, the water crisis and the crisis of emergency aid, and you will continue to see individuals answer the call to service.

What is the power of July as the seventh month? How can we use the power and magic of the number seven this month?

This is a perfect way to ask the question because the number 7 is magic. The word magic, we are going to use a particular definition of the word here, which is we are using it as a way to convey the fact that what exists energetically will create what exists physically. And, the inverse, that what exists physically does shift the energy surrounding it. This is the magic that makes your words so powerful. It makes your actions so powerful; it makes your intentions so powerful. When you hope for something, hope actually takes shape as an energy and that energy leads to actions, events and even eventually can lead to material change in the world. The power of the number 7 in July is very evident. Actually, if we were to give a number to this month, not only is it number 7 in order for the western calendar, 7 speaks to the power of the clarity that will be available for you.

The power of 7 tells you that nothing can be overlooked. If you are intending that someone be hurt but you are pretending to help them, that intention of hurtfulness will be evident. It will limit the way they receive the help you offer. If you are intending to help heal someone, even if you cannot decide what to do for them, that intention in the form of prayer is conveyed. It does make a difference; it does transmit and make the person more healable than they were without your prayer or your intention. The way to use the power of 7 is, first of all, do not pretend. Do not fake anything, and do not believe it when the people around you do. July is not a time for pretense. It is not a time to pull the wool over your own eyes or over the eyes of anyone else.

The second way to use the power of 7 is to engage in a practice such as prayer or sending positive, loving energy into the world from your heart using the truth of magic, which is that what you intend energetically, what you think about, actually does transmit and have an affect in the world and in your life. Number 7 is the number that directs the power of positive thinking, or mind over matter; and those ideas are more true than ever in July of 2008.

Is there anything else we should know about the energy of July 2008?

Yes. Do not be afraid. As long as you have a commitment to being honest, taking accountability for your life, keeping your heart open and choosing love over fear, this month does not need to be terribly uncomfortable. Yes you will find that your hearts break. Your hearts will break, you will feel sadness, anger and surprise; but all these things are meant to lead you to a deeper understanding of Love. They are meant to lead you to a deeper sense of connection with the people around you. This is the perfect month to remember and embrace all the ways that you have been hurt in your life and cradle them tenderly in your heart. Then go into the world, look at the people around you, and assume that they, too, have their pain; assume that they, too, have cried alone, and that they have felt as alone as you have in your life. Allow this perspective to direct your actions toward them. Offer them tenderness; there is literally no room for harsh judgments of yourself or others in July 2008. During July of 2008, there is enough pain, there is enough brightness glaring at people already. People do not need your opinion; they need your loving attention. This is a month for tenderness, this is a month for sweetness. Do not be afraid. Choose Love.

Is there any new information or are there updates to the information that was offered in the Looking Ahead channeling for July 2008?

Yes! Though there is not really any change in direction or fundamental shift in the energy, there is more specific information available now that the energy of the month is approaching. The energy of July 2008 continues to be an explosive, expansive energy - like a bright light flashing. The shift that has occurred in the weeks since the Looking Ahead channeling is there is more Light available in July 2008 than there would have been several weeks ago. This is completely a result of the thoughts and actions of human beings. You have made room for more Light to be available. When we say Light, we are talking about Divine Light -- that vibration or energy of Love that formulates everything in the Universe. We are also referring to the effects of that Light, which is when that Light is present, all of creation becomes visible. In other words, more information is available to you when you allow more Light to be present in your lives.

Through your actions, particularly through your embracing of compassion, you have opened a space for more Divine Light in your hearts. Also, this Divine Light is even more available due to your continued willingness to see what is. Your willingness to take into account all the information that you know -- your willingness to step out of denial in your personal lives, in your collective endeavors and to embrace the truth even though the truth can sometimes be difficult or hurtful, bring more Light into the world. So many of you, during the month of June, have bravely stepped into the truth in your lives, that you have opened up more potential for Light during the month of July. The energy remains as it was in the previously channeled message, but there is more Light available. This means that you have more resources available. You have more of that higher vibration to support you through the month of July.

The increased availability of Light also means that you are likely to see even more than you would have before in the month of July. Deception, lies, miscommunications, anything that was previously unseen or unknown to you becomes very obvious during the month of July 2008. This is not exactly a comfortable thing to have happen, but it is very useful and is only happening out of a response to all of your willingness to move into this visibility. There is a bit of irony here; with more of that vibrational resource and with more information at your fingertips, you all are likely to step forward even more than you originally planned. That means that you have essentially opened up space for the month of July to be even more explosive than was previously channeled. But this is not a punishment; it is a gift you have created for yourselves to propel you forward on your unique, divine paths.

Take note that this increase of explosive energy and expansion is occurring as a result of the greater resources you have available. It is not that you now need to scramble for energy and courage to deal with this -- you already have it. You are simply going to get bigger than you expected. Look for new information in your lives, be willing to see what really is rather than what you really hope to be. Be willing to grapple with any new information with your hearts as open as possible, remembering that you are completely supported from the other worlds and that you are completely supported in the human world.

All of our advice regarding July in the Looking Ahead channeling remains true. The best way to work with the energy of the month is to reach out and get connected to the people in your life. That includes people that you have not met yet, but pass you by on the street or who stand in line with you at the store. Be willing to reach out and connect with your fellow human beings. That is the one thing that will be most beneficial for you to do as you move into this new rapid expansion. Otherwise, the original message is perfectly accurate.

When you say "explosive", do you have a more everyday description for what "explosive" may be or what it may look like?

Yes. This is likely to mean that on an everyday basis in your personal lives, you will feel that you consistently have new revelations. You will find yourselves on certain days, in certain moments, suddenly seeing a situation with a whole new perspective. It is as though you will have a profound insight that makes everything clear to you all at once, but then this will occur on an ongoing basis. It is like an explosion of clarity in your minds - an "Aha!" moment. Then as soon as you see the new insights and integrate the new information, another one happens.

You may find through the month of July that you feel you cannot catch up with yourself, and that is okay. In August, the expansion will become more integrated, so let the clarity come during July. This may mean that you will miss some deadlines or you will feel pressed to get things done in time. It will feel like things are happening too fast around you. It may feel as if you were surrounded by bombs going off. Imagine that a big explosion occurs on one side, and as soon as you turn to deal with it, a second explosion occurs on the other side. You are likely to feel that everywhere you turn you find new information and new insights that are so profound that they genuinely change your perspective. You will have these kinds of jaw dropping moments, not of fear or of tragedy, but just the shock of insight like you will just be momentarily stunned throughout the month by new perspectives or new information. You may get news that surprises you. Depending on your life and your trajectory, it may be very positive, joyful news or it might be very distressing, disappointing news. Either way you are likely to have your jaws drop, so to speak.

Collectively, you are likely to see a more explosive version of events that are occurring already in your world. Scandals will seem more scandalous, corruption will be more devious, world events will take on a new sense of drama or a deeper, more permanent sense of meaning. During July, many people are likely to suddenly realize that all of the things that they suspected may be true, are actually true. For instance, the global food crisis is an example. People are aware that there are food shortages throughout the world and many people have been aware that mismanagement of resources occurs throughout the world. For years and years people could have anticipated a food shortage such as this, but now that it is actually happening, it seems surprising even if some part of you is aware that mismanagement would eventually lead to shortages.

During the month of July you will find that the information surrounding global events such as the global food shortage, natural disasters or political decisions, will cause you to pause with momentary shock. Your jaw will just drop, you will catch your breath, find yourself surprised and you will need to reevaluate everything that you assumed before. This is something that is not new; you have been doing this already, particularly in the last several months. It is just that the energy in July makes it feel bigger and more shocking. Do your best to remain calm. The fundamental direction that humanity has taken is not changing in July. You are changing individually -- your perspective is opening, you are seeing more and it is your work to adjust with an open heart and a willingness to see things as they are rather than as you wish them to be. You do not need to panic and suddenly be in fear that the whole world will fall apart at your feet. Parts of the world are unraveling and new parts of the world are building into a new, more enlightened foundation. Do your best not to panic in July. Do your best to take in the information and respond to it as well as you can knowing that more will keep coming and all you need to do is keep up with it. Do your best and trust that in August and September you will have the time you need to digest it all.

Is there some way we can use this explosive theme to put energies of healing into the explosive devices of the world or is there some way that we can do something explosive in Spirit work?

This explosive energy draws a closer connection between your intentions and the manifestations of your intentions into outcomes. Your intentions, prayers, hopes, wishes and thoughts always create a resonance in the world, they always have an outcome though you usually cannot see it very clearly. In July, the outcome gets closer to what you intended, and the outcome happens more readily. There is less distance -- a metaphorical distance because we are not talking about space here. There is nothing new you need to do, but it will help you to know that your intentions and your prayers have a greater effect, they have a more explosive or expanded effect in the world during July than they typically do. All the complex ripples between you and your intentions and what happens in the outer world have more clarity, like they move through a clearer radio signal through which to travel.

Because your intentions will lead more easily to manifestation, it is important to be very aware of what you intend in your personal lives because what you intend, fear or spend most of your time thinking about is likely to come into being in one way or another. This is why we continually give you the direction to choose Love over fear. Fear will arise, especially when things start to feel out of control and when things start moving really fast for you. Fear will arise and you can allow it to arise, but then make a choice about where to place your attention; you have the power to choose Love, even when you are experiencing the emotion of fear. You do not need to fight the fear; you do not need to ignore it. In fact if you ignore it, it becomes stronger. Instead, allow it to arise but then choose your behaviors to be based in Love. Choose your words based in Love. Choose words that heal people rather than words that hurt people. This includes words you use in regard to yourself. There is nothing new with this information - you have heard these things before -- but do know that you will have a greater effect in doing this.

It is almost like a faucet was turned on 100 times wider. If I am attempting to channel loving energy, now my intentions to send love out to the world will be 100 times stronger. There will be that much more Light to send out. Is that right?

Yes - this is an excellent way to describe how your intentions connect to the outer world; it is like the faucet got turned on wider or faster. The energy itself of July, itself, does not quite suit the image of a faucet. A faucet is too consistent. The explosive energy of July occurs more in fits and starts. That is why we say it is explosive rather than just big. It occurs like a series of explosions or a series of expansions rather than one long-term, consistent flow.

Someone once told me that on July 23 a Goddess window opens. I seem to remember something about a binary star or the Dog Star, but that window stays open through the September 23 and there is just a lot of divine feminine energy. Can speak to that in regard to July 2008?

This is an astrological energy -- an energy that is channeled to the world through an astrological alignment that occurs every year. It is not a traditional astrological alignment because it is not an alignment of planets. It is an alignment based where the earth is positioned it its revolution around the sun and what stellar energies you are exposed to through your position during this period. There is something like a Goddess energy. In the year 2008, that energy is part of what will make the expansion of July become more consistent in the month of August. In the month of August you will continue to have expansion, but it will become more consistent rather than explosive as a result of the Goddess positioning. Goddess energy and God energy is always available, but you have different configurations of it moving through the planet at different times based on astrological alignments. This particular alignment brings more consistency in August, but will not be a huge central factor of what is happening in July and August this year, but it does make a shift. It does make things softer in August.

Will this explosive energy also manifest as more explosive weather occurrences?

Yes. Several weeks in advance of the month, the potential was quite strong for physical explosions of weather, bombing devices, rising tempers, all of these kinds of things. Now that we are closer to the month's beginning, the explosive energy remains likely to happen physically through weather and human behavior, but with the tempering sense of Light coming from your compassion and your willingness to embrace the truth. It is less likely you will translate the energy of July into physically tangible explosions. It will still happen throughout the world, but it is not as strongly translated into physical matter. You will continue to see storms. In July you will begin to see the nature of the hurricane season because there is an intense hurricane season that will begin to arise in July. That is not to say there will be a massive hurricane in July, it is yet to be seen what kind of hurricane season it is. It is simply that there is a great deal of energetic potential rising in the season. You will continue to see attention-grabbing kinds of weather, but the potential is less than before based on the collective human embracing of the Light.

When it is referred to that we should stay connected, is that as simple as smiling at the person in front of us in line at the grocery store, the holding of a hand, picking something up for somebody who dropped it? Does this help to bring in more Light so that things can be soothed a bit more?

Yes, absolutely, though there is a little more specific information about this for you because it is very important; it is the most important direction to take out of these channelings for July. It will depend on who you are and how you have configured your life. For some of you, the most you can manage to do is to reach out to strangers in those simple little ways. Not for most of you; for some of you. For others of you, it will mean reconnecting with old friends or spending more time with the people in your life so that you have a deeper connection rather than a transitory or momentary "hello." For many of you during the month of July, the real, true direction for you is to not only connect with people but actually reach out for help. Whether that is help thinking through a problem you are having at work or whether it is calling a friend in the middle of the night when you cannot stop crying and actually asking them to come over and hold you. Each of you has your own threshold for ability to ask for help and your ability to risk or connect. Follow what makes sense in your lives, but extend yourselves further than usual in asking for and offering help.

Essentially anything you do that supports isolation in your life is going to make things a little more difficult in July. Anything you do to reach out and be in community or in a relationship is going to make this month really joyful and clear. This month has the potential to push you forward in the directions you want to go in your lives, and this potential is maximized in your willingness to engage more deeply in relationships of all kinds. It will depend on you, how your life is choreographed and what your thresholds are around these things. It would be important to do something out of the ordinary. This is not to say that there is anything wrong with being alone; it is fine to be alone. We are talking about isolation, which is different. Being alone is just part of existing. Sometimes you are alone and it is healthy, but when you could be with other people or when you are struggling with something and you do not tell anyone, then you are supporting your own isolation. This is the time to banish isolation and embrace interconnectedness. Each of you has entered a time and space in with true, human, heart-to-heart connection is more possible and more necessary than ever before. It rests with you to make these connections happen in your individual lives. Reach out, soften your hearts, smile and trust that you fellow humans are doing their best and they are on your side!

Akashic Records of May 2008

message from Akashic Records channeled by Jen Eramith MA
Thursday, 1 May, 2008 (posted 2 May, 2008)

What energy and experiences can we expect during May of 2008?

There is a rush of new energy in May 2008. You will find an enormous amount of life force energy available to anyone who wants to tap into and use it in May of 2008. Imagine the energy involved when flower bloom – that life force energy that is naturally directed where it needs to be. It creates a fullness. This is what is available to you in May. Everything is becoming fuller.

It is well known that most of you have had a pretty difficult or intense year so far. January, February, March and even April have not been the most comfortable period of time in your lives so far! May is finally the time when things can make sense to you again. It is as though you catch up with yourselves beginning in the last week of April. This kind of energy will likely continue on through May and even through June. While the challenges in your life will remain and you will need to tend to the challenges in your lives, you will find that things make more sense than they have before. The solutions that you try will work better than you expected, or finally something will work where nothing has worked before. This is a time when a lot of the questions that you have in your everyday lives, as well as questions that you have about all of humanity, start to get answered. May is a time when you are likely to find a reassuring sense of your own intuition. You are likely to find evidence that things are in alignment, and even the difficulties serve a useful purpose.

This is not to say that tragedies will not continue to occur. There is violence in the world, and there is always a potential for destruction, but for the most part in your individual lives, there is potential for things to finally start to come together. The primary experience of May 2008 is likely to be one of fullness, reenergizing and of a sense of reinvigoration; that is the primary energy of May 2008.

How can we best work with the energy of May 2008?

We say that things are going to feel better and things are going to start to work better, however the Keepers are not saying that things will necessarily be easy if you sit back and become passive. More than ever, it is important to remain awake, alive and accountable for what is happening in your lives. The best thing you can do is keep your eyes wide open and be willing to see whatever comes for what it is. Avoid denial. Then, make decisions about whatever comes. This process of seeing without denial and actively deciding what to do is likely to be easy and enjoyable! You can relax your worries, but you must remain engaged in life!

For those of you going through Enlightenment, there will never be a time in your lives again when you can stop thinking; when you can just check out and coast through life without being intentional. That way of being will probably not work for you ever again. Of course you will rest sometimes or sit back and relax. This is not a message about being “on guard,” it is a message about being accountable and alive. Imagine the way young children act when they wake up in the morning -- they jump out of bed and they are excited to see people, do something, and try new things. This way of being in Enlightenment brings you back to that way of being and that kind of joyful engagement with life.

In May, do not look for ways to check out or do not tell yourself, “Hey this should be easy. Why is this not easy all of the time?” Instead, whenever there is a challenge just rise to it; assume that everything, all of the energy that you will need to resolve it, is right there at hand. Look for it. Use it. You do not need to wait for it, search for it, jump through hoops or get it right in order to receive the energy you need -- it is just right here for you in May. Assume the people near you are here to help; assume the solution to a problem is available right in front of you. It is all around you!

Another important point in regard to the energy of May is based on your engagement with people. Most of you will find that it will be important to notice human interaction and your participation in groups. While there has been guidance from the Akashic Records, and from other spiritual leaders or self-help books, most of you have gotten the message over the last few years that you need to be mindful about whom you spend your time with. Most of you have had the experience of not always being very clear on what that means. You may think a friendship needs to end, then suddenly the friendship turns out to be exactly the thing that you needed. There are some relationships that have always been a little tricky for you; it is not always easy to see whether you should be moving toward it or away from it. In May of 2008, these things are going to become more clear. More than ever, your human interpersonal relationships must come into alignment with your highest good. In your relationships, whenever you are unsure if you have said the right thing, if you should act or not; whenever you are unsure about staying in any of your relationships during May 2008, essentially the thing that is available is absolute surety, absolute unquestioning knowing. Wait for it. Decide the next step, and keep watching the big picture. It will become clear.

Even those of you who are experts at second-guessing yourselves, you will find that if you are unsure of something in May 2008, if you will sit down and set all of your tasks aside for just a few moments, take a deep breath, close your eyes and meditate on the thing that is bothering you or you are unsure about, you will find a sense of surety. Try out different answers. Imagine that the answer is ‘yes’ to whatever your question is, then sit with that and feel what it is like to live with that answer. Be playful. The instant you try the solution that is best, you will know. It will click in that magical way that makes everything clear. In May, if you will be willing to sit down and listen to yourself and try different solutions in your mind, you will find that click any time you want it. The key is to be willing to sit down and wait for it. Do not distract yourself with unimportant tasks. Wait for your intuition to guide you.

This is an excellent time to practice your own expertise, practice standing in your own authority or turning to yourself for the answers rather than seeking them from somewhere else. You can always find more information from a book, in a speech, from a parent, friend or even an employer. But for this month, wait for your own authority. Wait for your own, deeper sense of knowing. It is right here with you now! It is a wonderful time for self empowerment if you will give yourself time to find it.

What days will be important in May of 2008?

The time period from the last week of April until May 5 is a time of transition; when you really start to get used to how much energy you have at your fingertips. You may find yourselves fumbling a bit, as someone who gets a new car with a far bigger engine than the one they had before -- they tap the gas gently and the car rushes forward faster than they expect. You may find yourselves feeling like you have a bigger engine for the first few days of May. This is a good opportunity for you to make small mistakes and practice living with more energy each day. The best thing you can do is take full accountability for the mistakes or fumbles that do occur. Any time you do something that you regret, or something that you wish you could do differently, stop and take accountability. During these days you have a free pass to revisit the situation and the person, say you are sorry and explain how you want to do it differently. Ask if you can start over again. This is the perfect time to practice!

On May 11, things get fuzzy. With the joy, expansion and energy in May, things get more clear. As much as you are able to know yourselves better this month, inevitably you and your lives get bigger, then it takes a little while for your life to come back into focus again. When a camera pans out to a larger landscape, the focus can deteriorate until you adjust it to the new, broader picture. In the same way, on May 11, you may find things have gotten a bit fuzzy for you. May 11 is a good day to sit down and get clear again with yourselves. Use the Truth List exercise from the Vernal Equinox Live Channeling, where you sit down and make a list of what is true for you every night. This exercise can continue to be helpful through the month of May, and particularly around May 11. Simply sit down and write a list of truths -- what is true for you in that moment. If you will do this regularly, you will find that your life becomes more focused very easily; things that start to feel a little unclear get clear for you again.

May 17 provides an experience that is the opposite of May 11. It is as if things are so clear that it may be painful; like looking directly at the sun. Sometimes too much light can hurt your eyes or disorient you. You may find that on May 17 you will feel like teenagers write in text messages when they say TMI – Too Much Information! Consider this possibility a few days in advance so that when it happens you do not need to be disoriented. Just as if you were planning to go out into the sun and you put on some sunglasses before you step outside. Knowing that May 17 may be a little startling or overwhelming in advance can help you deal with what comes, or at least help you not panic if you feel overwhelmed.

May 31 is an energetic gateway; it is a Star Gate. This is an energetic portal open to all of humanity to download information from the higher realms. Now, remember, all of you can do this any time you wish, but during a Star Gate, it occurs for each of you all at one time. It is a higher dimensional portal of energy. It is for your benefit. Every person reacts differently to a Star Gate. Some people find that it overwhelms them and they want to sleep the whole time, which is a very efficient way to download information. If you feel sleepy on or around May 31, sleep more to get the rest you need. Other people may feel activated by this Star Gate, and cannot sleep at all. Either way, take good care of yourselves; manage your bodies carefully in the days just before May 31 and especially on the day, itself. Depending on who you are and what your soul has agreed to do, you may be downloading a lot of energy from your Higher Self.

For those of you moving through Enlightenment, there are some days when you feel “spacey.” It may be that you cannot keep track of things, or that time seems to “slip away from you.” This occurs because, at a higher level, you are tuning into something higher than yourself -- usually some kind of healing energy. Often, people pray for healing and then they wonder why they feel so spacey or lost, when actually the feeling is the experience of receiving that healing energy. It will become important for you to give some time and space in your life for the energy that you ask for from Spirit. It takes you some time to integrate that energy. Give yourself that time, care, and attention around May 31. Be gentle, stay grounded, eat well, and sleep a lot!

It seems as though several of the past months have been characterized with upheaval in many different areas of the world, in particular Africa. Will this continue in May? Will May bring increased challenges with the world’s food supply and are there things that we can do to help?

Yes, yes and yes. Yes there will continue to be unrest in Africa, Middle Eastern Asia and in China. Yes there will continue to be food shortages in Africa and across the world. Yes there are things you can do to help. The way that this trajectory interacts or intersects with the energy of May is that the fullness in May brings a swelling of attention, things that could have been swept under the rug or hidden before are nearly impossible to hide at this point. In May you are likely to see more information come to the surface regarding food shortages and how they affect people. It is not necessarily that the food shortages are increasing, it is the consequences and awareness of food shortages that are increasing. Humanity is catching up with itself and, in doing so, you see more of the damage that has occurred. However, you also can see the growth that has occurred, particularly in your ability to come together and intentionally improve your collective experience. You are empowered to heal yourselves, as a human family, in a way you have never been empowered before. This is what you can begin to comprehend in May 2008.

There is a trajectory for the planet that is evident as you read the latest news. This trajectory continues. This month, you will see an upsurge in news about it. It will become even more widely covered by your media; it will become even more apparent to all of you so that even if you do not pay much attention to the news, you will find that your attention is drawn to this. Part of the fullness of energy means that everything becomes more visible. In the past, all of this information about what is happening in the world -- as well as information about what is happening in your individual lives, such as who is good for you and not good for you, what directions you should take or what the possibilities are in any given choice you might make -- all of that information in the past would have been completely overwhelming to you. Because of the Enlightenment process and the challenges you have faced in your own lives, you are now able to process this information and have it open your heart rather than overwhelm you and close you down.

The challenge in May of 2008, for every human being on the planet, is to pay attention and open your hearts at the same time. This may sound simple, but it is actually not common for people to do both at the same time. In the past when you would pay attention to suffering at a global level such as this, in order to save yourself, you had to close yourselves off; you have had to not pay attention or not really feel it. There are a few of you who have kept your hearts open and you have felt the weight of the world. You will be joined by others now. You will carry this together. There is an open invitation in the month of May and June when it is possible for you now to open your eyes and hearts at the same time, to really see and feel what is happening to many people on the planet and to actually let it soften you. Let it help you feel more connected to people.

For most of you, this will lead to some kind of action whether it is donating money, traveling to Africa, writing a letter or inviting refugees to your home; there are a million different possible actions you can take. For most of you there will be an action that best suits your journey, but from the perspective of the entire month, we cannot really prescribe what that will be for you as individuals. For some of you it will be in prayer, for others it will mean dropping everything and moving to Africa. It is up to you to ask yourself what is best for you to do; what action does your heart lead you to most readily? This is a perfect example of when to use the exercise in which you ask yourself what to do and then you wait for an answer and for that click of knowing something in your deepest heart.

You will see more hearts opening in May and you will find that on a political scale governments and other institutions of power will be less able to remain distant from the effects of their actions. They will be less able to say that they are trying their best when they are not, or to say that they never meant to hurt anyone when they really did. Watch for scandalous information in your news about the behaviors of governments and corporations. Do your best to continue to watch for the signs of how much people are healing in the world even as the suffering and the scandal is coming to light. Again, there is an enormous amount of life force energy available to each of you, so that you are finally safe to open your hearts and cry for the suffering that occurs in the world without getting lost or damaged in the process. Your hearts are safe – they can finally break open.

The Guides talked a little bit about Ascension and what would happen during the month of May for people who are going through Ascension. Do they have any other information about that?

Going through Ascension is essentially the same thing as Enlightenment. Ascension is the physical process by which people move into and through Enlightenment. Enlightenment is who you are and who you are becoming as you move into Light. Ascension is the process by which your physical, emotional, and mental fields change in accordance with your Enlightenment. You can assume that whatever you are experiencing in the process of Ascension is the same as in Enlightenment.

As you are moving through Enlightenment, otherwise known as the process of Ascension, the two primary points in regard to May are to turn to yourself as your own highest authority and to open your heart. Any time you feel yourself checking out and not paying attention to what is before you, stop and ask, “What am I afraid of?” Ask how you can connect to whatever it is that you are closing yourself off from.

For many of you going through Enlightenment (most of you listening or reading), you are likely to find an upswell of emotion during the month of May. Coming with the fullness of energy, if you are really taking advantage of this opportunity to look and see and keep your heart open, then you are likely to have a lot of feelings during the month. You are likely to find yourself crying or giggling often; do not shy away from expressing emotions. If you are a person who finds that it is not always easy to access your emotions, this would be an excellent time to go to therapy, talk deeply with a trusted friend, or even watch a movie or read a book that touches your heart. Only you will know what touches your heart. Some people say, “This book is so touching.” But you read it and it did not really do anything for you. Do not listen to other people as to what will touch your heart. You know when you feel that sweetness of your tender heart. Move toward that this month. There is no reason to avoid it. Find ways to feel your emotions. It will be vitally important for your psychological and physical health moving forward in the process of Enlightenment that you keep your emotions with you as you move through all of this energy in May. Do not leave them behind. It will be much harder to help your emotional self catch up with you later on. Keep your heart open; keep feeling things.

For people who have been having a difficult time with their romantic partners in April and the last few months, what will the platform be for romantic relationships? Will there still be this unrest and how can we create more harmony with our partners?

This is the reason that the Keepers have directed Jen to host a three-part series of Live Channelings regarding romantic love. This is such an important question at this time on Planet Earth. We will talk about this in regard to May, and you can find much more information regarding romantic love in the Live Channelings.

In regard to May, you are likely to find that things get easier in your life partnerships and also in your business partnerships or other kinds of partnerships you may have in your life. In your close committed relationships, best friendships, spouses -- in any version of a close commitment, you are likely to find that things just feel easier. A lot of the things that bothered you before are likely to not bother you so much even though they will still be there. The things that overwhelmed you before when you thought, “Oh gosh, he or she is just driving me crazy. I do not know if I can take this” -- now you will be able to see and relax. You are likely to see the things that were difficult for the last few months and you just laugh and laugh. This things become funny and the two of you can make jokes about how intense you have been with each other. You will have more energy to address your differences in May than you did earlier in the year.

The energy in May can provide a very welcome break from the turmoil and intensity of trying to work things out when they are not working very well. That being said, if you are in a partnership that does not serve your higher self or your best interest in your life, it is not going to get easier in May -- it is going to get harder. In May, with all that energy coming through, there is not much room for restriction; there is not much room for holding your breath and hoping nothing changes. Instead it is as if opening the doors wide when a strong breeze is blowing -- the wind is going to come through and invigorate and freshen the air. But if you are trying to hold on and not move, it is only going to get worse or more uncomfortable. If you find in May that your partnerships become more difficult than ever, you might consider ending the partnership or revising the contract between you.

If, on the other hand, you find that things get more intense but it becomes funny and you can make jokes about it, then keep trying. There is more for you to learn. If you have tried to talk something through with a partner and it has not worked so far this year, try it in May. You are likely to find that things are going to go better even if they did not go well before; there is just a different energy. If they continue to get more difficult then you might want to ask yourself if this is where you really want to be. Having a difficulty with a partnership is not unusual in the world and it is usually not necessarily a sign that you are not meant to be in the relationship. But at this time it may be a sign. The energy of May can be an amplifier and therefore it can be a clarifier; it can help you actually see if you should be in it or not based on if it gets easier or harder this month.

Is there anything else the Keepers wish for us to know about the month of May?

A final thing is that with all this energy coming through, it would serve all of you to look back at the monthly messages of April, March, February, January and December. Look at your journals and reflect on your personal life through the last five months. You have been called to focus on things, to figure out what you are really doing or to get rid of the things that are standing in your way. There are all kinds of ways you have been called to do that and you have done it whether you were trying to or not. It can be apparent to you, now more than ever, what is important in your life and what is not important.

In May, you will have more energy on a daily basis to get things done and to engage with life. If you have a sense of your focus, if you have a sense of the top five priorities in your life, you are going to use that energy far better. You will be happier with what you did looking back on the month if you develop that focus in advance. Look back on where you have been going, where you have been so far, what direction you have been trying to take in your life and see if you cannot harvest some of the energy that comes to you in May to really take some steps forward in the things that are most important to you. List the top five things in your life, the very most important things, post those things on your desk, by your bed or on your bathroom mirror so all month long you remind yourself where you want to put your energy. You will be so much more pleased with yourself in July if you do that. Otherwise, if ever there was a month to enjoy, this is it! Watch for opportunities to giggle, especially with other people. Watch for opportunities to invest your energy in something that excites you. Especially this month, there is no reason to hold yourselves back!

Akashic Records of April 2008

message from Akashic Records channeled by Jen Eramith MA
Wednesday, 2 April, 2008

What energy and experiences can we expect collectively in April 2008?

Two images will help describe the energy of this month. The first is the feeling of being jolted forward in the way that occurs on a train that suddenly started moving. There is a new acceleration available that is similar to the energy of last summer. It feels like the train is speeding up. Whatever you have in your life will start moving faster in April. This will be a huge relief for some of you and may be unnerving for others. Just as if you were rushing to board the train before you feel ready, if you do not have everything gathered together yet you may feel a little flustered when things start moving. Your response to the acceleration will depend on how centered you have been able to become during the course of March. The acceleration is not in any particular direction; your experience will be wholly dependent on the intentions you have set for your individual lives. Know that whatever you have begun will streamline itself in April. A lot of the work you have all done in the last four to six months to understand yourselves better, to take accountability for yourselves, and to let go of what stands in your way is now going to really begin to pay off. If you have not done this work, you will find a sense of a last minute scramble or last minute rush.

The second image to show you how the energy of April works is a woven basket. Imagine a straw basket -- how it can be woven into different patterns. If it is woven well, even though you have many different lines crossing over one another, there is a sense of harmony or a sense of flow. You can look at the basket and it seems to all be melded together; if it is not woven well, you might have all the same parts woven in the same pattern but the angles are slightly off -- every little straw has a slightly different angle giving an overall sense of chaos in the basket. It feels haphazard or incongruous. There is something about this sense of many little lines crossing over one another in a pattern that really reveals how the energy of April 2008 works.

April is going to involve many little things crossing over one another. Assume that you will have a lot of details to work through during this month. They may be details such as what was said in an interaction or how you arrange the furniture in your house. Whatever it is, details matter in April. Just as if you were weaving a basket, it is important to be mindful of details because every little angle will make a difference in how the overall flow occurs in the basket. Whether you are mindful of details or not, either way you will end up with a basket in the end. But you will be much happier with your life and with the way things are going for you if you will pay attention to details throughout the month of April.

To contextualize this image and energy, let us talk a little bit about what happened in the last four months or so. So much has come to the surface for you and so much has been either let go of or embraced through your choices, struggles and challenges. You now have are the raw materials for weaving the next phase of your life. It is like you have sifted out all the different straws that are of the best quality and color for your basket. You have all of these raw materials and now it is time to weave them together. However you have been thinking about your life for the last four months, this is the stage you are coming into -- it is time for reweaving. You have sifted out what you are going to sift out. Of course you will continue to drop any straws that are not working for you, but at this point it is time to draw your attention to the details of weaving together what remains in your life.

The images of accelerating on a train and weaving a basket give you the overall energy for the month of April 2008.

How can we best work with this energy?

Be prepared and then be prepared again and then be prepared again! Essentially, in advance of any event in your life, before every day, be prepared. Think ahead about what might happen in the day -- what materials you will want to have with you, who you need to call in advance to tell about the plans, and any other details that may arise. Do everything you can to prepare for every step that is coming in your life -- for every event that occurs, be it big or small. Then, once the event has begun, be prepared to change everything and then take care of all the details you can as you go. When the situation changes, adjust. Then, as soon as you get settled in it, be prepared to change it all again! This is part of the process of weaving your new lives together. If you are going through Enlightenment, your new way of being must include moving with change rather than stopping for change. The old human habits tell you change is dealt with by stopping and assessing, then getting your footing moving forward again.

You are now learning in your own individual ways how to keep moving as change occurs. This is the reason the acceleration in April may feel startling to some of you, but you will get the hang of it as you go through the first part of the month. Anything you can do to finalize things that you want to finish and leave behind will help you. If something has been bothering you, sit down and figure out what it is about it that is bothering you. If you have phone calls to return, sit down and make all those phone calls and get them out of the way. Just clear things out of the way as quickly as you can at the beginning of the month.

Then watch for how things are weaving together and what seems to work and not work in your life. You have to be more accountable for this than ever. The Keepers have said this often through the years, and will continue to remind you. It is that sense of acceleration that you do not have the luxury of a brake pedal anymore, but then you also do not have the limitations of the brake pedal either. The best way to work with the energy this month is to take each thing as it comes and pay attention to the details.

The second thing the Keepers can say about the energy of April is that throughout this month you do not need to concern yourselves with the big picture as much as you usually do. You have focused on the big picture enough in the first three months of this year. The big picture has presented itself and become more clear to you. Whether you understand it or not does not matter. You eventually will understand. The big things -- the big issues, challenges, and themes of your lives have been at the forefront in the last three months. During the month of April you can assume you have embraced the big picture -- you are already on the train. You do not need to decide what train to get on anymore. All you need to do is find your balance and work with whatever comes to you, but assume that the train, or your life, is moving in the direction it needs to already. The hard work most of you have done in the first three months of the year has landed you the perfect seat on the proper train. That is one thing you can let go of at least for the month of April and for May, too. The big picture is taking care of itself at this point and you will have a chance to make adjustments at the end of May and the first part of June. For now, just deal with the details.

What individual days will be important and how can we work with those important days in April?

Just as the month of April is filled with details, the days in April present themselves with minute information for each day. They are showing every single day because they are showing the whole month in extreme detail.

April 4 is like a sanctuary in the middle of what may be kind of a chaotic week for many of you. The first week of April, the last few days of March and the first week of April may seem a little chaotic, like there is a lot to keep track of. Watch for an opportunity to quiet your minds on the fourth. It is a sanctuary; particularly on April 4 the true sanctuary happens with Love. Spend time with people that you love on that day or spend time doing something that you love or that makes you feel loved. Anything you can do to remind yourself that you are a lovable person and that you are actually full of Love will serve you on this day. Anything that can help you really feel that, not just think it, but really experience it will go far for you on April 4. The energy of this day seems like a hug. It is like a Universal hug trying to envelope you and hold you. Find a way to make this feeling real for yourselves on April 4.

The second weekend of April, the twelfth and thirteenth, is a sparkly little light. It is like a diamond -- a gem sparkling with magical possibilities. This weekend may also feel like a sanctuary because things can get clear or feel lighter. This weekend is a good time relax and to spend time with friends to laugh or to play. Anything that gives you a lighter approach to things will serve you over this weekend. It is a good time to drop any plans that feel obligatory and instead leave room for spontaneity. Make sure you do something fun on this weekend. If you have something that you are obligated to do on this weekend, find a way to make it fun. Play music that you like, invite someone along who makes you laugh, or do other things to make it more fun.

April 17 is a day that has a box around it. It is a day when things must get done. If any of you are familiar with astrology, it is a day that seems to be ruled by Saturn. There is a list of tasks and you need to complete whether you like it or not, sort of like karma. On April 17, as with the rest of the month, be prepared. Set yourself up to be productive. Get a clear sense in advance of what you would like to get done that day depending on what is happening in your life at that point. Give yourself a list that you can check through. Some structure on this day will serve you really well.

All the things the Keepers have said about the month of April really apply most to the first three weeks of the month. The last week of the month begins to carry an energy that is more centralized in May. The last week of April is very fertile. It is very lush. Anything you have moving in your life is going to come into bloom. If you have a lot of fear, find a way to let it go or to work around it because anything that is happening in your life will get bigger. Not bigger in an overwhelming way, but bigger in a way where things get fleshed out more. Whatever exists in your life will become deeper in the last week of April. You will come to understand the details of it, the fullness of it, and you will come to see things from different angles in May. This will start for you in the last week of April, particularly April 27 through 30. Sit down and make a list for yourselves about what has been important for you so far, what seems most important to you now, and what intentions you want to set for the future. It is a good time for a checkpoint in the last few days of April.

What is the significance of the wet weather, especially rain, that April is so well-known for?

As with most things in nature, rain in April accomplishes many different things at once, the same way an earthquake accomplishes several different things at once. The rain in the northern hemisphere with the season of spring is a grounding force. Rain happens more in most places in April to help ground the energy of spring. In spring, energy and plants are moving upward, and people do things like spring cleaning and moving outdoors. Spring involves more change than any other season. Having water move downward as rain all around you grounds your energy. Having water in the air changes the ionic charge in the air around you. It literally calms electromagnetic energy and that is one of the functions of having rain occur more in April. It counterbalances the yang energy of spring.

The second significance of rain is its place in the cycle of death and rebirth. It provides the sacred rite of baptism. Through the downward motion of water around you, it becomes easier for you all to clear things that normally would create metaphorical static in your life. It gives you a chance for renewal. Water is always useful for creating renewal. Water in spring can best be used when it moves downward; flowing water is particularly useful in spring, regardless if you have rain in your microclimate or not. Taking a shower rather than a bath is useful in the springtime, as is standing under a hose or even having a water fountain near you with water trickling downward. Any downward moving water serves people well in the spring. You can create the equivalent of rain for yourselves in order to produce that sort of baptism even if it is not raining outside.

Is the intense energy that we have been feeling recently going to dissipate soon or carry into April?

The intense energy of the equinox does carry into April, but it boils itself down into detail more. Imagine the energy of the equinox is like a heavy rainstorm. In the week before the equinox, it began by drizzling a little bit and then became a little heavier as the equinox approached. The week of the equinox was like the kind of downpour that you have to stop and get under the eaves and just wait for. Buckets of energetic “rain” came down during the week of the equinox, and many of you felt this as intensity or extreme discomfort or disorientation.

In the weeks following the equinox, including the few three weeks of April, you can still feel this energy, but it is actively dissipating. You can listen to the Live Channeling of the Vernal Equinox any time in April and it will continue to be relevant. The things that were said in the Live Channeling will be relevant throughout April, including the importance of finding your truth and making a list of what is true for you everyday. The shift you will see is that after that downpour of equinox energy in the third week of March, the last week of March and the first three weeks of April, you will find that it stops pouring and becomes heavy rain. It is heavy enough that it still gets you really wet but you can go outside and it gets lighter and lighter, until by the end of the third week of April the rain has stopped and the world is dripping. Water is dripping off the trees and off of the rooftops but the sun is coming out, or you will still feel the energy but it will no longer distract you.

The metaphor of a storm is not meant to be dark; this is not a storm in the way that needs to be difficult, though it may feel difficult because of the intensity. In some ways, people are picking up on the sense that there is a last minute scramble to get things together before the train starts moving. How is that for mixing metaphors!? (Laughter) People are sensing the intensity and they are scrambling whether they need to or not. Most of you are served by scrambling briefly, but of course if you scramble too much you lose focus and you become inefficient. Remember what you learned in March about centering yourselves. Apply it in April by centering your attention on the details.

If you will listen to the Equinox Channeling, you will hear more about how to ground that energy and find yourself in the midst of joy in this energy. But yes, it will continue, it just will not be as chaotic in April. Just like the rain, when buckets and buckets are falling down, you cannot really tell which drop is which, but once it slows down to a little drizzle you can feel individual drops again. That is the feeling of detail that we talked about for April; the feeling that things just get really detailed. You have to pay attention to what happens in every moment but you do not have to deal with the big picture all the time anymore as you move through April. For most of you it will get easier. It is not meant to be hard; it just winds up being hard for some of you. It is part of being human to make things harder on yourselves, but you are learning to let that go.

Could we have a few more examples of the types of details that we could expect to have to focus more on in a general sense?

Absolutely. This can apply to any corner of your life. It depends on who you are and what you are doing, but we are going to give you some examples to illustrate how it works. Imagine that a friend called you on the phone, left a message and you are planning to call her back. Where normally you might just pick up the phone and call her, in April you will be well served to listen carefully to what she says in the message and to consider what you want to convey when you return the call. Sometimes people hear who is calling and they stop the message and call back right away. It would be better to listen to the whole message and pay attention to the exact words that are used, the exact tone that is used, and then call back and be mindful about what you say. Be mindful, prepare yourself, and decide what to say first before you move into the rest of the conversation. If you sense that she is lonely, you might plan right at the beginning to say, “I am so glad you called.”

It is in your attention to those little details that you make the shift so that you are doing the same things you always do, but with more attention to detail. Similarly if you are planting things in your garden, pay a little more attention to where you place things, or how deep you place them, or what day you are doing the planting on. Just think about the details a little bit more than you usually would. This guidance is not meant to overwhelm you with a whole new set of things you have to worry about; instead this energy is meant to be quite the opposite. It is meant to be a Zen practice in your lives where you can let go of the big picture, trust the picture is working itself out, and just take a breath and notice what is right in front of you. Then take another breath and notice what is in front of you next. The idea of thinking of all the details may seem overwhelming at the outset, but the energy of April is going to carry you into this simplicity of dealing with each detail one at a time. The Buddhist practice of mindfulness will serve you in April. Because the energy is pre-set to lead you to the details, you do not have to fight for this. You do not have to worry about things falling through the cracks as much as you just need to catch that sense of detail and move into it. The energy and your experiences want to happen that way.

Another example of the kind of detail we are talking about is to imagine you wake up in the morning and you are going to get dressed and begin your day. If you do not feel like worrying about what you are going to wear do not worry about it. But if you are thinking about what to wear, then think about the details. If you are just going for a jog, you can wear anything and it really does not matter; but if you are going to meet with someone and you find your attention is drawn to what you are going to wear, then do not only choose the shirt and pants you are going to wear, but also think about your socks. Even if you usually do not think about socks, think about what socks really feel right for this outfit or would it be better with this necklace or that necklace or this tie or that tie. If you are going to think about what you are wearing then think about the details, not just the basic fact of what you are wearing. You do not have to be mindful about what you wear everyday, but if you are being mindful about it, be mindful of the detail.

What we can look forward to in April as far as our grand schemes coming into form? Are they just taking the next stage?

You know, your grand schemes are your overall picture, and now is a time to trust. For some of you, you have already got it and it is coming into form now. It might be chaotic and hard to grasp but it is coming into form. For others of you it is not quite going to come into form until later in the year. But generally, the energy leads things to come into form more in May or toward the very end of April. Things are coming into form but you cannot quite see it yet. You will not quite experience it as a fullness because you will be so involved in the detail that you do not recognize how much it is coming into form until May when you sit back and look. This is just like weaving a basket or knitting. Imagine knitting a sweater or weaving a basket, you really have to focus on each straw, placing it well, getting it over and under and weaving it just right. Your mind is on each straw and how it interlaces together and at first it does not seem like a basket at all, it just seems like this odd sort of messy thing. But then after a while you sit back and look at it, and you recognize it is beginning to look like a basket -- maybe just a little bottom of a basket, but a basket nonetheless.

Toward the end of the month, if you are paying attention to each detail as it arises, you will find that your grand schemes have come into form more clearly. Many of you will be able to look back and see that your progress makes sense. In the first three weeks of April, you may not see the form very clearly, but it is coming into form behind the details. The form is taking shape but it may not be easy to see because it really does serve you better to look at the detail rather than the overall picture for now.

In response to the intention in your question, the Keepers say, “Yes.” Yes, it is something to look forward to. It is meant to feel easier this month. If you find it feels difficult, return to the metaphor of being on a train – specifically of being a traveler. For the past three months you have been planning out your itinerary, booking your flights, and making plans. You have seen some of your plans fall through and you have had surprises come up. You may have recognized how scared you are to fly or how afraid you feel about being in a different country. You have been dealing with all of your emotions about the big picture of your life.

In April, it is as if you finally board the train and now the driver is in charge of getting you there. Through your intentions and your work to clear yourselves, you have already made the decision about what your itinerary is, so there are few opportunities to choose new itineraries now that you are on the train. Just like when you are on an airplane or a train, your world gets smaller for a while. Your attention can only be on what is in front of you. It is easier to pay attention to exactly what you are eating, or a puzzle or book, because the space around you is limited. There is a beauty in this; things get much simpler and you can appreciate detail more. Details become more important. If you sit in an awkward position it will hurt later, so you pay more attention to how you are sitting. Remember the feeling that the train is already going so you can just deal with the details now.

And a final metaphor to help you work with the energy this month! Imagine that you have been working to open a store and set up a storefront. This month, you have already accomplished the big picture of deciding what to sell, getting funding, applying for a license, and creating a marketing plan. The big picture is in place. Now it is time to sit in the store and decide what to place in the storefront window or what music to play in the background. Now instead of dealing with the licensing, funding and all of the really big issues that are always important but can be very overwhelming, it is time to play with what to put on each table or what to wear to work each day. You can let April be less about the issues you have to go to therapy for and more about the issues that just make your day happy or sad; just the smaller things, the details. It is still important to go to therapy if you are going to therapy, but you do not have to worry so much about these big life scenes and challenges. The bigger issues of your life will move forward in April with or without your interference!

Is there anything else the Keepers want to say before we close?

The Keepers wonder, ‘How many more metaphors do you want?’ (Laughter) Remember that there is no guarantee that the month will be easier, but the energy is set up to be lighter and simpler if you will let it be. If you drop the details, things will probably remain pretty chaotic for you; just like that basket looking crooked. If you will just settle down and be mindful of each detail, you are going to find that a real harmony occurs and that a flow happens that allows you a lot of energy to just enjoy life. Watch for this and be attentive to details as you get there. Let it be joyful. Finding joy in the details of your everyday life is the highest, most brilliant way you can be this month!

Akashic Records of March 2008

a message from Akashic Records channeled by Jen Eramith MA
Saturday, 1 March, 2008

What energy and experiences can we expect in March of 2008?

March 2008 opens new energy. It is as if the month of March 2008 is bigger than the other months; as if it takes up more time than months. The energy of March has a lot of pressure in it because change is occurring. Change is occurring like waves on the open ocean. You can see undulations that reveal a great deal of energy under the surface, but not all the waves crest and create whitecaps. From above, there may appear to be very few whitecaps, but there is far more change going on than is readily apparent. You will likely find that small things seem big, or you have strong feelings about things that you know are relatively small. This is fine – there is nothing wrong with feeling strongly. Usually your strong feelings are pointing you to where you need to change personally. If you find yourself overreacting to things, do not try to talk yourself out of your feelings. Simply redirect them into something that can help you change yourself for the better. Avoid directing your feelings and your attention onto what is occurring around you. Usually the things happening around you are not as important and they feel. It is important to honor your feelings, but it is also important to not create drama just because you are having strong feelings. In March, watch your feelings, but wait to act until you have established a sense of calm.

For many of you, the month will feel as if it drags on forever. You may feel like a bubble is about to burst. Watch for feelings of tension, which is a result of your expansion. Some of you may find that your lives have a fullness to them; things may get richer, more interesting, and more fulfilling. The tension and change do not lead this to be a chaotic month. If you find that you are deeply uncomfortable with the tension inherent in the month you might accidentally create chaos to support your feelings, so watch for a tendency to make things more complicated or dramatic than they really are.

Whenever you find that your life is chaotic, sit back and recognize your ability to sit with the pressure you feel. It may be useful to explore how pressure can make some experiences delightful. Bubble gum is a good example. People can only blow bubbles with their bubble gum if they create pressure to blow the bubble. There has to be pressure inside the bubble to hold it open. It is the same with balloons. Play with things that require pressure to succeed. Watch how water pressure allows you to have water come out of the faucet in your kitchen. Look around you this month and notice how pressure can be a gift. It does not always need to be a cause of distress or concern. Notice all of the forms of pressure that exist around you that you are comfortable with, such as air pressure and gravity. Consider that the new pressures in your life can be equally comfortable if you will sit and be still. March is an excellent time for you to use any practices that encourage you to turn within and sit with stillness. For some of you that is meditation, prayer, or something like running or playing a game or solving a puzzle. Anything that helps you be still and quiet will serve you well in March 2008.

You will find that March is a good time to clean up what has come to the surface in the last two months. Again, there is an enormous sense of change under the surface. While there is always potential for collective change, in March there is not a strong potential for something to blow up or for a far-reaching disaster. Instead there is a paradoxical thing that might happen, which is some of you may yearn for things to blow up. It is not that you want something hurtful to happen, but this sense of pressure or tension will leave some of you yearning for something to burst the bubble. You may feel like you are a volcano, particularly for some of you who are sensitive to energy in the collective unconscious. It will serve you to find an outlet for this tension. Again, one that directs you toward positive change in your life rather than one that creates more drama in your social circles or personal life. March of 2008 can be relatively empty. It is like air pressure; there is nothing to grab onto, but you feel pressure nonetheless.

How can we best work with the energy of March 2008?

In addition to having a meditative or centering practice of your own, employ forgiveness this month. It may not be easy to enact discipline with this sense of pressure building. March 2008 is not a good time to start a new discipline. If you did not already meditate every day or every week, do not try to start it on a regular basis now. You will find yourself running up against a wall. Use the practices that you already have developed and that already come easily to you. Do not tell yourself that you will suddenly develop a firm, disciplined meditation practice or exercise regimen. This is not the time to start -- there is too much pressure and it is far too easy for you to be hard on yourselves this month. Instead, as you engage any centering practices, also give yourselves a great deal of forgiveness.

It is likely that many of you will make a lot of mistakes in March of 2008. Imagine a carpenter who has worked all day long and who is tired and hungry. This person has one final project to complete so she or he decides to ignore hunger and fatigue and finish the project. It is not surprising that this is when they are most likely to make a mistake. They might injure themselves or damage the project. March is like that last hour when you are trying to push through something but you feel unsupported and unfocused. Watch for mistakes, and try not to be surprised when you make them. Develop a habit of forgiveness. You may find yourself saying you are sorry a lot this month. Taking accountability for your mistakes and apologizing for them can diffuse them pretty quickly, so engage a sense of forgiveness for yourselves and offer an attitude of forgiveness for others. The perfect motto or mantra for the month is, “We are all human.” Assume goodwill on behalf of your fellow humans, because there may be a lot of bumbling around and apologizing this month!

Are there any days that are important for us to know about during the month of March 2008?

March 8th is like a bubble within a bubble. This day is a small, quiet space. There is hollow sense to the day, which can create something like an energetic echo. Whatever your intentions are this day will likely come to pass tenfold. If you plan something that you dread for this day, your dread will be experienced tenfold. If you think ahead and intentionally set yourselves up to get the support or to do something you enjoy on this day, you will experience that the love and tenfold as well. Mindfulness in planning for the 8th will serve you incredibly well. Anything you intend will be amplified.

March 19th is an important turning point associated with the Equinox. Use this day to release the old things in your life and embrace the new. It is a very useful sort of baptism -- a day when you can actively turn your life in a new direction.

March 17th through the 21st you will much shifting socially and collectively. You might see some changes in the election process in the U.S. You might see a change of heart from some of the leaders of the world. You might see a social group take on a new dimension. Watch for the changes that occur and items that are covered in your news during those days. These will be pointing you to see the directions that humanity is taking collectively. There is nothing to fear here. If something destructive occurs in those days, you can know that whatever has been destroyed is something that needs to be released. Whatever it represents is no longer serving humanity. If something is being built in those days, notice how it takes humanity in a new direction. It is a very enlightened window of time.

The energy of the month, as a whole, is so strong that there are not many days that have a particular energy. The whole month has a strong energy. Have faith that the purpose will emerge as you accept and care for yourself right where you are this month!
