A transmission from Archangel LORD MICHAEL through Rev. Christine Meleriessee Hayden.

I AM Lord Michael standing amongst each of you at these times of great change. As the influctuation of energies occur within the land of Gaia, the transition is not just of the Earth but each of you that inhabit the space of light which is being guided by your Angelic Self to become more of what you ever thought you could be.

As the changes have occurred within each of you, it is increasingly apparent that there is still so much work that needs to be done. We are only at the beginning stages of re-growth within the Earth. It almost feels like the rebirthing effect is more of a birth that has never occurred previously. There are new energies that are being sent into each of you that may seem uncertain; there are experiences to be felt that can be compelling within your consciousness to try and satisfy your mental minds of what it may be. There is an awakening within the planet that is being felt by many different levels of creation.

Yet, within yourself, the creative process can be misconstrued as something that only You are experiencing.

This is so very untrue in many ways. You have been here before. That is why so many of you want to exit the planet, move into the New Earth, and be taken away to another existence that does not hold so much negativity.

Each individual soul is going to perceive this time differently depending upon their circumstances in their lives and how they go about receiving the Divine Love that is being offered to them through the Source of Light, the Creation of All That Is.

Some individuals are going to be lost through this process as the lower forms of energy are arising into this light, but yet cannot be perceived as a healing process. Many souls will choose to experience death through this cycle as they are not ready to delve deeper within themselves.

These are all of the trials of being an Angelic Being in Human form upon this earth. The trials can be overwhelming. It can cause some souls to give up and wanting to perceive life in only their way of existence.

Change is inevitable at this time. Every individual soul is going to be experiencing it in different ways. It is what you do with what you are being given that makes the difference. Every individual person is evolving in a completely different way until they realize that their way may not be the way of Oneness or Wholeness of the Self. Until a person realizes the potential that they hold within themselves, then they are going to be lost by all of the changes that are occurring presently.

It is only when a soul wakes up to their Inner Light and sees that they are all part of a greater plan upon this earth that this soul will access the full potential of their greater form. It is not until an individual sees themselves as their own savior, their own angel of light, that the true awakening occurs within their physical essence.

This is exactly what each of you are going through presently. You are learning more about yourself every day and within each moment. You are realizing that what is beyond your comprehension is truly only an illusion and that the real truth must be revealed within yourself. It is an awakening of the Self that goes much deeper than Awakening the Physical Body to the Light. It is when you realize within yourself that you don’t know as much as you thought you did, but yet, there is something inside of yourself that tells you there is great wisdom by tapping into your inner knowledge within.

This year has brought forth this awareness into each of you whether you realize it or not. The doorways that you have stepped through are allowing you to know more about the TRUE YOU ~ The Spiritual You ~ not the Physical You. You are awakening unto your Angelic Self, the one that has broken down many barriers for others. It is a time for you to fully accept the Angel that you are becoming and listen deeply within yourself what needs to be addressed and acknowledged. There is great knowledge that is being revealed within you, right now.

Do you realize this is truly happening to you? Maybe you do not but hopefully you do.

11:11 represented an opportunity to walk through a doorway of time in which there is no time. Within this earth at this time, great changes are occurring inside the planet and within each of you. There are more occurrences than you realize. It is in preparation for the future and each of you stand at the threshold of your own awareness – realizing your potential as not only an Angelic Being but a Divine Being of Light.

Are you ready to step out of your own way?

This is extremely important to have the wisdom within yourself to know that ‘You Don’t Know Everything.’ It is a time to stand within your own four-body system and say unto yourself that you realize there is “more to experience, to understand, to comprehend and accept within the life that you have chosen.”

Now that is a huge order to accept within your physical existence. It is always important to understand that there is more to learn, more growth experiences to endure, and more joy to be received.

I know what you are going through. I remember at the times of the beginning of this race when we came to the planet in hopes of creating a beautiful essence of love and communion with others in a physical body. But yet, the planet was already encased with programming hidden in its deepest parts that kept all of you here.

I always vowed that I would assist each of you on a deeper level of understanding than I could bring forth within those days. It has burdened me deeply to see your pain, and to dry your tears when there seemed to be no end to the turmoil you would endure.

The time is coming when you have the ability to step out of the painful arena and embrace your joy of your Spirit within yourself. It takes great courage to do so. We all know this to be very true.

The processes that you have to go through are very important; you must acknowledge that the 5th dimensional energies will not just come to you because of whom you are, that you believe in your light, and are ready to face the darkness. It is something that must be earned through the trials and errors of being human, but yet remembering your Angelic Essence.

This is the greatest gift you can give to yourself as the Earth is changing but everyone must change with it. You must go through the levels of lessons from your first awakening into the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th to receive the 5th dimensional energies within your consciousness. And, that my friends, is only your greatest beginning.

Some may be overwhelmed to hear this information but yet I have great news for you. The Angelic Energies are now grounded within the planet, within Gaia since June of this year. Your Solar Angel which is the beginning essence of your angelic presence is working with you to help you walk through those doorways that may seem very challenging to the human spirit. But, yet, with the help of your angelic self, you then have the power of your Solar Angel to assist you. The frustration of the past is now behind you; it is more about what you desire and then you are able to achieve it easier through the remembrance of whom you are.

It is a great time of jubilation as so many more souls will be able to awaken to their higher essence. As the Solar Angel assists in bringing forth the Higher Self which truly does not awaken fully in physical form until the 5th dimensional essence of light. You can work with your Higher Self, but to have this essence fully incorporated within your physical consciousness in every moment it takes quite a bit of work within the human conditioning.

This 11:11 has now arrived and has allowed these essences to become more of your existence. It is important to connect daily with your Solar Angel ~ allow them to show you the way. They understand the Angelic essence and you understand the physical essence. As you combine your energies together, you will start to become One. The challenges that you experience will go easier than before although the lessons will be the same.

The changes that are happening now are a result of all of these elements coming through the angelic realm into the physical existence. It is a time of great transition that will allow for expedient results by becoming all parts of your-self.

December is a time of culmination as it represents the entire year into the movement of the doorway into the next year. It is a time to rejoice but also to understand the challenges you have gone through to get to your present consciousness that you are learning to inhabit. Take time this month to reflect every day on the changes you are experiencing. Utilize your breath to get to your Solar Angel; do not ignore this essence, as it is a major part of your existence.

The Re-Birthing cycle can be very challenging as when we step from the old into the new we sometimes fumble around until we are used to the new energies. Allow this month to be your bridge from the Old to the New for 2016. Be the Angel that You Are within the Physical Essence you Embody. Allow your gifts of the old self to come forward while the elements that you no longer need are purged. Be grateful for who you have become and don’t ignore the signs of healing that needs to occur. They are your greatest teachers as they will give you the knowledge of your past in order to receive the wisdom you desire to attain.

I am excited about this time on the Earth with Gaia and each of you. We truly are becoming an awakening planet little by little. Show your gifts of warriorship but turning the sword inside yourself and see what needs to be accepted. Don’t attack others; but attack the lower aspects that stop you from achieving your goals of stepping into the 5th Dimensional State of Consciousness.

With deep love,

I Am Lord Michael at your service. (Integrative Channel:  Rev. Christine Meleriessee Hayden.)

The Angels' Song

Deep inside you, a light shines, the light that

was born within you as you entered this life.

This light is the beacon in the darkness,

the warmth in the cold, the harbor and the refuge.

And this light is yours, always there, underneath

the emotions, underneath the fear and doubt,

always there, shining brightly.

Take a deep breath, now. And then another and

then another. Close your eyes and see within you

the light in your center. Watch it expand. Watch it

expand and expand until it fills your body completely.

And as it expands, feel how it contains love and only love.

Feel how that love is stronger than the fear and doubt.

Let it expand and fill you completely and then, let it expand

even further out, so that you are like a lantern that casts

i ts light far out into the night, glowing and bright, filled

with love, filled with light, a bright energetic presence.

And now, see that there is a ring of angels around you.

See them shining out in a bright, white light. They sing

of love. They sing of light. They sing of the wonder of this

life and send you the courage to live it and live it well.

Listen to their song. Listen as they sing of your soul's

intention for you, how you yearned for this gift of life and

received it, how you were given a spark of life, the same

spark that shines in your center now. How you were born

and how you have been loved and treasured ever since,

how helping hands have been right out before you to

encourage you to take those steps toward freedom, how

the angels have guarded you and protected you, even as

they allowed you to live your own life your own way. And

they are there for you now, singing this song, your song,

the song of your life, of all the wondrous love that is there

for you, now and always, if you will allow it to shine for you,

and all the guidance and wisdom that is flowing your way

each and every moment of every day.

Listen to this song and choose. Choose certainty and

belief over doubt. Choose courageous action over fear.

Choose to go deeply into your connection with your soul,

with these angels and with God, to find yourself and lift

yourself into wisdom and joy.

Choose to shine out with all that you are, in all of your

wonder, walking in deep faith like a lantern shining out

for yourself and others. Choose to love and embrace

this precious life and every blessing that it brings you,

every moment. Give thanks and be glad.

11:11 ACTIVATIONS ~ SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 11TH, 2012

We are the Elders that Surround the Throne of Grace in Group Consciousness.  We also comprise the Elohim Councils of God, along with the Angelic Councils which are 12 councils in all with 12 angels within each one.  As you know, we work directly with the Divine Mother and Father God to assist in regulating the frequencies through the Rays of God along with all of the principalities of Light.  It is our Divine Pleasure to assist you in this manner.

The activations that you want information about that will be occurring in November are going to regulate the frequencies for individuals to fully accept that there is something more to their lives than just what they are feeling. All of these activations are a step into the Gateway of 12-11-12 within a preparatory stage of development.

The essence of understanding about the Mayan Calendar encompasses more than many individuals realize.  It is a potential of understanding to allow the Christed Self to be born into each human being upon the planet.  The acceleration of the planet is taking effect deeply as we speak and will continue to do more through the process.  For those that have been on this awakened state of consciousness, these dates are only going to push them into deeper levels of understanding which is the same truth for all of humanity.  The point being is that the individuals who are working within a Pathway of Mastery will step ahead of everyone else.  This means that individuals that have a knowledge and expertise are being asked to go deeper to assist other individuals.  There are actually waves of consciousness occurring within an individual at this time, but it is up to their free will in how this consciousness will appear in their lives.

There is a deep knowledge that needs to be expressed in the type of individuals that awaken unto the planet and allow that vibrational level to flow within them.

[Please see the channeled message from Albert Einstein on the Theory of Ascension & What it Means for the Public Arena which will be posted on this blog shortly or within our newsletter.]

November 11, 2012 is a day when an opportunity will present itself to individuals that want to go further into the depths of their understanding.  As always the 11:11 activations are doorways for growth and opportunity.  It is important to realize that these doorways are activated through a person’s subconscious mind to allow the conscious mind to receive the message that an opportunity is presenting itself to them.  Not all individuals truly take advantage of this opening of frequencies in the way it should be done.  There seems to be a commonplace attitude that it is just another number. We believe that many people are receiving these messages through the clocks, on signs, within the media, etc to help them be aware that an opportunity is being presented to awaken them into a new reality.

This day on 11-11 is not different except on a much deeper level.  The degrees of acceleration are increasing through openings that are being guided from the God Force.  You see, humanity needs to wake up and what a perfect opportunity to allow this to happen through a time sequence.  11:11 actually means to come into Oneness as it is represented by the binary system of 4 digits being the same.  There actually occurs a time sequence of no time to occur so the frequency stops for one second of 11:11.  Each individual that stops for that moment within 11:11 will allow their Higher Essence to access their physical creation by acting upon the frequency of the ONE.  This is why so many individuals are feeling these frequencies within their lives.

The day of 11:11:12 represents the same no-time zone.  2012 is the year of the Golden Era when more people have awakened into a new reality than has ever occurred before.  This means that the percentage of individuals in this year will see 11:11 more often.  Since November 11^th is 30 days before the Gateway of the New World is opened, individuals will be prepared to awaken themselves into a deeper level of understanding than they have ever felt before.  Some may say it is a warning sign; but in actuality, it is a moment of pure acceptance that there is more to themselves than what their mind can understand.

This also is a time when each individual that chooses to have an awakening will remember the essence of their Angelic Self.  11:11 has always represented to the Angelic Presence and this day is a moment to allow that Angel That You Are to be fully activated within the body.  There will be a remembrance and allowing the thoughts and emotions of the Angel that You Are to fully embody your physical existence.  Your Angelic Timeline will then be fully activated.  It is going to be quite a very powerful moment for humanity.

It is essential for individuals to be prepared on this day to walk through another doorway of awareness by allowing their Higher Self/Highest Essence to walk with them side by side.  Now for individuals that are newly awakened, the Higher Self will present themselves in a different manner; i.e., dream states, showing the clock energies, feeling elation, joy is within them, etc.  For the other individuals that are working within their pathway of mastery, they will go deeper and will be guided not only by their Higher Self but their I AM Presence.  This is being engineered by the higher frequencies depending upon the person’s awareness.  The more that the individual has accepted their pathway and is working on their Inner self, the deeper the knowledge will come to them.  It is an appointed time of entry to prepare the physical body to receive more frequencies in preparation for the gateway December the 12^th.

This entryway is also going to assist individuals to walk through the following 30 days in the altered state that they achieved on the 11-11 date in November.  It is being geared by a person’s ability to be on the pathway of Light, to accept that Light within them, to work through their initiations, and move into the deeper realms for preparation into the New World.  The ones that are not on a mastery pathway will feel more elation and also have moments of realizing that more needs to be done.  It truly is an awakening day for everyone upon the planet.

We ask that you apprise all individuals awakened and unawakened that this is a day of awakening.  It is the first doorway to walk into the entryway of 12-12-12.  Preparations need to be done for each individual person.  There will be many that will not feel anything different as this is because their bodies are numb from the pain they have endured.  This is where we are going to be assisting within the planet to help the souls that are lost from themselves.

We suggest gathering with others whether long distance or in close groups to connect with the energies that occur at 11:11, 1:11, and again at 11:11.  All increments of “one” are very important.  The best time to connect is in your 11:11 time zone and the energy will run its course throughout the day.  Meditations should be done representing the ONENESS and connecting to the GRID of the planet to put everything into motion as we commune with every one of you through this day.

We must remind individuals that this is the first activation during a 30 day cycle and going about their business during the day will cause the deflection of energies within them.  This is not something that we want as the more energies that are involved, the merrier it will be.

The 11:11 day is a pre-requisite for the activation of 11:22:12.  Many of you realize that “22” is a master number and represents the initiation process of allowing the Gateway to be fully opened within an individual’s physical consciousness that relates to Mastery.  This means that each individual that fully activates the energies within themselves with the other activations of 11:11 and the Solar Eclipse of 11:13 representing the Feminine & Masculine Divine Energies being activated, will take them into the deeper initiation process that they have been undergoing.  It does not mean that each individual is going to jump initiation phases but there will be a quickening of energies that will occur.

We just uploaded a special video meditation for the11:11 Awakening.  You may utilize this video not only for 11:11 but all the activations that are occurring through December 21st, 2012.

11:11 Awakening Meditation

In addition we are holding a special tele-call on the 11th at 11 AM Pacific.  Details are available on Walking Terra Christa.  If you would like to receive our newsletter which shares our open calls for these events and more channeled writings, please do so on the website.

Expressions of the Oneness of the All,
- Elders from the Throne of Grace, Elohim Council of Light, & Angelic Councils of Oneness at your service.

We hope that you will connect with others on this day of awakening.

The angels in our life

Some people come into our lives through strange coincidences.

Their presence seems mysterious, but they are here for a reason.

We don't always understand where they come from or why they manifest in our life.

Usually they are compassionate individuals who we have attracted by something we have said or done.

But sometimes their light is so bright and their words are so kind and warm that we feel we are experiencing angels in the form of a human being.

After a while we can't stop thinking about them.

Sometimes they become our friends, companions, partners, mentors or guardians.

Their main purpose is to guide us and support us through difficult times.

They are here to help us discover our inner strenghts and our own beauty.
They give us hope and encouragement when we feel lonely or discouraged.
They make us believe in ourselves and trust our intuition.
They give us the inspiration we need to find our hidden creativity.
They show us new perspectives and help us fulfill our dreams.

They help us realize that when we feel happy or miserable, it is often a direct result of our ability to say no.
They help us realize how important it is to avoid pressures from other people and to trust our gut feeling.
They help us realize that if we listen to too much advice, we may wind up making other people's mistakes.
They help us realize that we often have to create the circumstances we need.

The angels in our life
http://youtu.be/yPvgg_6hGOU

by Sarah McKechnie

The mystery of the descent or "fall" to Earth of the rebellious angels—the solar angels or agnishvattas—is said to be the mystery hinted at in the Scriptures, and "the secret of the ages" (Esoteric Psychology II, p. 93). Thus it is not surprising that there is so much confusion and misunderstanding concerning the "fallen angels" of which Lucifer is the best known representative.

The secret of the "fallen angels" is essentially the mystery which lies behind the very Plan of evolution, for the solar angels' willingness to "fall", to sacrifice themselves in order to bring the light of the principle of mind to what was then animal man, marked the coming into action of the great Law of Duality by which matter, form—negative and passive—could be quickened by spirit. This act of sacrifice at the dawn of human history is a thread woven throughout the great scriptures and mythologies of the world, including the myth of Prometheus who stole fire (mind) for man, and the biblical story of the Prodigal Son, who left the Father’s home to embark upon the path of experience in the life of form and the senses—the journey to "the far country".

The role of the solar angels and their sacrifice on behalf of humanity is discussed at length in The Secret Doctrine by H.P. Blavatsky. In fact, in 1887 the magazine of the Theosophical Society took "Lucifer" as its name in an effort to bring clarity to what it regarded as an unfairly maligned sacrificing angel.

The name "Lucifer" comes from the Latin words, Lux or Lucis (light) and ferre (to bring); thus Lucifer literally means "light-bearer". It is linked with the planet Venus in Revelations XXII: 16 when Christ says "I am the bright morning star", which is Venus, heralding the coming into full light of the Sun—the Son, the Christ. Interestingly the role of "light-bearer" is linked with Mercury, or Hermes—the divine messenger for the Gods in Greek and Roman mythology. In Christianity Mercury’s function is served by St. Michael, "the Angel Guardian" of Christ, according to St. Thomas. The esoteric interrelationship of this Angel Guardian and Christ is further illumined in the statement by the Tibetan teacher with whom Alice Bailey collaborated to write a series of books on the Ageless Wisdom, that "Mercury and the Sun are one".

Esoterically, the role of Guardian Angel was made possible by the sacrifice of the solar angels in their preservation of the principle of mind or, occultly, fire, through persistent repeated incarnations in form until animal man became thinking man and, finally, began to awaken to his true spiritual heritage: human/divine man. Thus the solar angel creates the form for the incarnating soul principle—the causal body—and it also withdraws that body at the fourth initiation, when the link between form and spirit has been permanently fused and the causal body is shattered.

The notion of the "rebellious angel" seems to trace back to the poet John Milton in Paradise Lost, which seemed to anchor in human consciousness the idea of the descent of the solar angels as an act of rebellion and therefore a fall from grace. ("To reign is worth ambition, though in Hell: Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven.") Yet this spirit of rebellion and ensuing pain is not found on Venus, we are told by the Tibetan. The rebellious spirit appears to rest squarely on Earth, for the Tibetan suggests that this spirit of rebellion qualified the attitude of our planetary Logos himself, the "Divine Rebel". The Tibetan quotes the Old Commentary:

Evil of Separatism

Yet sin and evil do exist on Earth. We are told by the Tibetan that the only true evil is the sin of separatism. And in this sense we gain some understanding of how Lucifer became identified with evil, for the awakening mind which characterises the stage of advanced humanity today is, as we know all too well, our means both of liberation and of further separation and imprisonment. The mind, functioning and powerful but devoid of soul, can be the great crystallising factor which builds powerful barriers of separation. "The mind is the slayer of the Real. Slay thou the slayer", the disciple is commanded. In this sense the mind in its concrete and analytical element becomes the refuge (and the unrecognised prison) of the ideologue, and is indeed capable of the sin of separatism through prejudice and hate and the wiilingness to accept the distortions of half-truths.

Further clarification of the role of the solar angels is found in a consideration of the fourth Ray of Harmony through Conflict and the fifth Ray of Knowledge, and the planets Mercury and Venus, through which they respectively channel their energies. For Mercury is the "Messenger of the Gods" and the fourth ray is the fluid principle which links the Plan and Purpose of divinity, known on the level of buddhi or intuition, which is ruled by Mercury, with the mind or manas, ruled by Venus and the fifth ray. "Venus was the custodian of what we call the principle of Mind and brought it as a pure gift to embryonic humanity", we are told in The Rays and the Initiations. Or as the Buddha said, "Love is the deliverance of mind". And the fifth ray, channelled by Venus and mental in expression, "operates in connection with the Law of Cleavages", and "is also responsible for the rapid formation of great conditioning ideologies" (Ibid., p. 602). In this we are reminded that the solar angels who chose to descend to Earth submitted to the Law of Duality so that the evolution of the human being could be dependent upon the development of mental discrimination and free will, and thus upon the capacity to make choices and to choose the higher way. There is always a choice of two paths, and it is a choice which must, for the human being, be guided by free will.

The substance of the mental plane is fifth ray, channelled through Venus, and because the angel kingdom works with substance—with the form aspect—so the solar angels brought the substance of mentality to man by establishing the link of the causal body of the soul on the mental plane—a link preserved until the fourth initiation which shatters the no longer needed form of the causal body. Some idea of the magnitude of this act of the solar angels is suggested in the realisation that the fifth Ray of Knowledge "is the energy which admits humanity (and particularly the trained disciple or initiate) into the mysteries of the Mind of God Himself. It is the 'Substantial' key to the Universal Mind" (Ibid., p. 591).

Further, the link of the fifth Ray of Knowledge and the second Ray of Love-Wisdom is said to be exceedingly close, because the second ray rules this present solar system, and in the sacrifice of the "Light Bearing" solar angels on behalf of animal man, the second ray aspect of wisdom was awakened, for "wisdom is knowledge gained by experience [the journey of the Prodigal Son] and implemented by love". Thus the descent of the solar angels into substance brought the legacy of experience to the unfoldment of the divine Plan.

So, returning to the story of the Prodigal Son, to understand the deeper implications of the Prodigal Son’s experience, it is important to note that, upon his return to the Father’s home, the Father joyously rushed out to embrace him, leaving the elder son who had remained at home feeling jealous and unappreciated. That such a journey to "a far country" is part of God"s Plan seems to be verified by the following passage from the Tibetan:

Through the energy of the fifth ray, which is "essentially a light-bearer", the evolution of humanity is hastened, bringing about the descent of the Kingdom of God to Earth as a result of the ascent of so many taking initiation in this age. The fact that The Secret Doctrine equates Venus with Gaia (Earth), and the awakening consciousness of the Gaia theory recognises that Earth is a living and unified organism, suggests that humanity may now be beginning to awaken and cooperate somewhat with the reason for which the angels descended into matter: for the salvaging of substance and the awakening of mind in form so that the Purpose of Deity could be registered and expressed in substance. The solar angels "fell" as an act of choice and of supreme sacrifice on behalf of humanity. Those "Lords of Knowledge and Compassion and of ceaseless persevering Devotion" are ourselves, and we in turn must consciously choose to take control of our incarnation in form, seeking Purpose and thereby rendering life on Earth a gift of sacrifice to the lesser lives dependent on our care.

Christ said, "I am the bright morning star". His promise, and the legacy of the presence on Earth of all such "light bearers", may best be summarised in the following words: H. P. Blavatsky wrote that "in all the ancient cosmogonies light comes from darkness". And Alice Bailey expressed a similar recognition in the following words: "The Master M. . . adds darkness unto light so that the stars appear, for in the light the stars shine not, but in the darkness light diffused is not, but only focussed points of radiance." (The Rays and the Initiations, p. 170)
