I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. The Q’uo quote today comes from February 12, 2011:
Jim: The question this evening has to do with the concept of angels. We would like to ask just what angels are and how we can interact with them. Are they different from or similar to guides?
(Carla channeling)
We are known to you as the principle of Q’uo. We greet you in the love and in the light of the one infinite Creator, in whose service we come to you this evening. We are privileged indeed to have been called to your circle of seeking and are very happy to be a part of this working. It is our pleasure to speak with you concerning angels.
However, before we begin, as always, we would simply ask you to take responsibility for your responses to those things which we say. Be conscious of whether or not you find our thoughts interesting. If you do, then they are yours to work with as you will. If they do not cause resonance to start in your heart, then let them go, for they are not for you. If you will use your discernment in this way and pick and choose between thoughts according to how they strike you, how they seem useful to you or not, that will enable us to feel that we are not disturbing your free will, and it will allow us to feel freer to speak our thoughts to you. We thank you for this consideration.
In talking about angels, perhaps it is well to start talking about humans. We also talk about ourselves, for we also have been through third density. We also have been flung out by the Creator to skitter across the pond of the universe and move through many experiences and gather those pieces of information that interest us and seek what we desire. We and you together have had cause to feel the distance between ourselves and the one infinite Creator; not a physical distance but an emotional distance. Outer distances make far less of a difference to one’s feelings than the inner distances, and we often have felt very much apart from the Creator and from other selves. It is part of the challenge and part of the blessing of being a spark of the Creator.
You deal, my friends, with illusion with a thick veil, with chaos and seeming uncertainty, for your entire incarnation. In a way, your life is a race that goes not to the swift but to the perceiver of truth. You’re racing not towards an object, but towards the correct perception of objects. Occasionally, one thing will come clear to you. You will have a realization about yourself. And you are one quantum step beyond where you were before, in understanding who you are.
The group question for this session was: “We would like to ask just what angels are and how we can interact with them. Are they different from or similar to guides?” Q’uo began by saying in talking about angels it is well to start talking about humans, and Q’uo also talked about having been through third density and being flung out by the Creator to skitter across the pond of the universe and gather those pieces of information that interest them and seek what they desired, so together they and we have had cause to feel the distance between our selves and the one infinite Creator, not a physical distance but an emotional distance since outer distances make less of a difference to our feelings than the inner distances, and they often have felt apart from the Creator and from other selves, but that is part of the challenge and part of the blessing of being a spark of the Creator. Q’uo went on to say we deal with an illusion with a thick veil, with chaos and seeming uncertainty for our entire incarnation, and our life is a race that goes not to the swift but to the perceiver of truth because we are not racing towards an object, but towards the correct perception of objects, but occasionally, one thing will come clear to us, and we will have a realization about our self, so we are one quantum step beyond where we were before in understanding who we are. On January 30, 2010, Q’uo explained the reason for our having a thick veil in third density:
The purpose of there being such a thick veil between you as your physical body and you as a soul body is that your density is the Density of Choice. The choice that you have before you as a human being, once you realize that you are inevitably and most deeply an ethically orientated entity, it is to choose your manner of service.
Shall you be in service to others and achieve graduation from this density by polarizing towards service to others? That is the path of radiance. It is the path of Jesus the Christ, the path of the Buddha, the path of many and many of your world religions’ figures.
Or shall you choose the path of service to self, that path called the path of contraction or the path of that which is not. The service-to-self polarity is called the path of that which is not because in order to make the self the center of the universe and all others those whose job is to serve you, it is necessary to deny that you and your brothers and sisters are one.
However, as the one known as G said, it is very easy to become lost in the tangle of thoughts that clutter the mind. The mind is a complex thing because you are using both your intellect and your consciousness. Your consciousness takes its information from Love itself. Consciousness, by definition, is the consciousness of all that there is, that which holds all things together. Your mind, on the other hand, is like a library, with your information either filed fairly neatly or filed chaotically, so that you have to send one of the librarians scurrying after information: someone’s name, the proper word that means such-and-such. The gaps in memory are notorious among the old, but they exist for everyone. So that is what it is to be human, among other things. It is standing in two camps, one foot in each, on the one foot space/time, the everyday consensus reality, the matrix, call it what you will. Your other foot is in the inner world, in consciousness, in Love.
Furthermore, that is the point of your being who you are. You are a place where two lands come together. You are the bridge between finity and infinity, between limits and limitlessness. You bring, if you choose, limitless and infinite Love into a world that is starving for Love. You bring infinite and limitless Light through your energy body and ground it into Earth’s energy if you choose. You ask a great deal of yourself in third density in that you ask yourself to wake up from a very comfortable slumber and become aware of the limitless potential that you contain. You become aware of your power, and you seek its right use. You become aware that you do not know yourself very well and that you have been giving yourself a difficult time of it, looking with eyes of judgment rather than eyes of Love upon what you do, what you think and how you feel. You become aware that you have allowed a clutter of meaningless details to distract you from Love itself, from the devotion of your deepest heart, from the hopes and dreams that you carry like treasure within yourself. And you become aware that you have the choice of how you shall be, thought by thought by thought.
Then Q’uo said it is easy to become lost in the tangle of thoughts that clutter our mind which is a complex thing because we are using both our intellect and our consciousness that takes its information from Love itself, and consciousness is the consciousness of all that there is, but our mind, on the other hand, is like a library, with our information either filed fairly neatly or filed chaotically, so that we have to send one of our librarians scurrying after information: someone’s name, the proper word that means such-and-such, and the gaps in memory are notorious among the old, but they exist for everyone, so that is what it is for us to be human, and it is standing in two camps with one foot space/time and consensus reality, and our other foot is in the inner world of consciousness and Love. Q’uo continued by saying that is the point of our being who we are because we are a place where two lands come together, and we are the bridge between finity and infinity, so we bring infinite Love into a world that is starving for Love, and we bring infinite Light through our energy body and ground it into Earth’s energy, so we ask a great deal of our self in third density in that we ask our self to wake up from a slumber and become aware of the limitless potential that we contain, and we become aware of our power, and we seek its right use, so we become aware that we do not know our self very well, and we have been giving our self a difficult time of looking with eyes of judgment rather than eyes of Love upon what we do, what we think, and how we feel, and we become aware that we have allowed meaningless details to distract us from Love itself, from the hopes and dreams that we carry like treasure within our self, and we become aware that we have the choice of how we shall be, thought by thought. On May 27, 2008, Q’uo spoke of the nature of our energy body:
Firstly, the nature of the energy that is used to open the gateway of intelligent infinity consists of three basic components: the will of the seeker; the infinite Love/Light of the infinite Creator which, moving from the Logos to the heart, is then reflected up through the Earth into the soles of the feet and into the energy body in an infinite supply. And thirdly, there is that vast array of sources of aid and guidance that can be accessed for those who move through the gateway into intelligent infinity.
In the normal course of seeking, the work of the seeker is first to clear his chakras so that the energy from the Earth may flow in infinite supply into the opened heart and then springboard up through the higher chakras through the gateway of intelligent infinity and then, aimed with the clear and lucid intent of the seeker, attract the appropriate source of guidance.
The energy body is crystalline and delicate. Consequently, the energy of the infinite Creator that comes up from the Earth is geared to harmonize with the needs of the energy body. If this Love/Light encounters a hindrance, it does not push or press but merely awaits the clearing of whatever energy center or centers have been blocked or over-activated. This constitutes a built-in safety mechanism, if you will.
And so, you choose to take on the challenge of third density as a person who is awake, aware, and conscious, and attentive, and you make of your life a beautiful pattern, a pattern of learning and service, a pattern of responsibilities taken and manifested, and as you get to know yourself, you begin finally to forgive yourself for being human. And in the fullness of time, you fall in love with yourself. And from that point on, your incarnation is easier, for the harshest critic is always the self. Yet there is no end to the challenges of life behind the veil of forgetting.
This is not the case with the angels. You have observed, as students, the regularity and predictability and hierarchical nature of the world as scientists have come to know it. The elements of which you are familiar and many of which you are unfamiliar, make up, not simply a random collection of elements but elements that have an arrangement because of their nature. They fit together in a certain way. And there is a hierarchy of energies. You, yourself, are a perfect example of that hierarchy of energies—the energy field of the entire physical body holding within it the energy fields of each organ, each system of hormones, and so forth. Down to the cellular level, your body understands its own hierarchy and it functions well.
The hierarchy of the angels of which you have asked us is just as regular and predictable. You have angels at the level of Creator, and you have angels at the level of personal angels. You have everything in between. They carry responsibilities according to their hierarchy. What makes angels unique is that they have never left the vibration of the Creator. They have never departed from the one original Thought of unconditional Love. They have never incarnated, and they never will. While they have characteristics that can seem to be like a personality, to say that angels have a personality is to anthropomorphize incorrectly.
Now Q’uo said we choose to take on the challenge of third density as a person who is awake and conscious, and we make our life a beautiful pattern of learning and service, a pattern of responsibilities taken, and as we get to know our self, we begin to forgive our self for being human, so in the fullness of time, we fall in love with our self, and from that point on, our incarnation is easier, for the harshest critic is always our self, yet there is no end to the challenges of life behind the veil of forgetting. Q’uo went on to say this is not the case with angels, and we have observed the predictability and hierarchical nature of the world as scientists have come to know it, so the elements of which we are familiar, and many of which we are unfamiliar, make up, not simply a random collection of elements but elements that have an arrangement because of their nature, and they fit together in a certain way, and there is a hierarchy of energies, so we are an example of that hierarchy of energies—the energy field of the entire physical body holding within it the energy fields of each organ and each system of hormones, and down to the cellular level, our body understands its own hierarchy, and it functions well. Then Q’uo said the hierarchy of the angels of which we have asked is just as predictable, and we have angels at the level of Creator, and we have angels at the level of personal angels, and we have everything in between since they carry responsibilities according to their hierarchy, so what makes angels unique is that they have never left the vibration of the Creator, and they have never departed from the one original Thought of unconditional Love, and they have never incarnated, and they never will, so while they have characteristics that can seem to be like a personality, to say that angels have a personality is to see them as human incorrectly. On November 3, 1979, Latwii spoke of the nature of our relationship with angels:
It depends upon your state of belief as to whether angels can physically aid you. If you believe in their reality, they can do almost anything, for grace is given unto those who believe. And the angels are the ministers of that grace. They are people such as you, who had learned through many lifetimes to glorify and praise the Creator. Thus, having learned, the angel can pass on the power and the invocation of Light. There is nothing more powerful than the Light of the spirit. Thus, if you pray and hear the rustle of angels’ wings, so be it. You have made contact with a part of your personality that links you with the perfection of the Creator.
It is, however, incumbent upon the angel to know the limits of the laws of Creation and the will of the Father. Thus, the angels’ laws are not those of your illusion but those of reality, and so it may seem at times that your requests are not being met. And if this is so, it is because it is not the will of your higher self which shares the perfection of the Creator. For remember that you yourself are the co-Creator with the Creator and thus a perfect being, who in some part of yourself knows what you must learn, and how you must learn it in this particular experience. Those who make complete use of their meditation, their prayer, and their faith lead the life of harmony that you would expect of one who lives with the knowledge of the Love and the plan of the Creator. The angels are simply messengers of His Love, as are we.
Angels are Love. Angels are Love responsible for realms in a hierarchical manner. There are those which work with your sub-Logos, the sun, in creating the archetypal mind and the blueprint for the densities in this particular creation. There are angels who are attracted to vibrations and flock to those whose vibration are beautiful to them. You may not feel beautiful, dear ones, especially when you are struggling, yet to those who vibrate in unconditional Love, the qualities of one who is seeking to learn and to serve are irresistible. It takes a great deal of courage to persist in a spiritual preoccupation, and each of you is very beautiful to us and to the angels.
There are two basic energies which angels have to offer. One is the simple energy of Love itself and the other is a feeling of safety, which could be called a healing energy. Both of those aspects are the resources which angels have to offer. Angels also have connections with the four elements and the four directions so that as you become more and more aware of the correspondences between certain archangels and certain energies, certain powers and certain directions, you become more able to cleanse your habitation or the area around you with the help of the archangels.
Q’uo continued by saying angels are Love responsible for realms in an hierarchical manner, and there are those which work with our sub-Logos, the sun, in creating the archetypal mind and the blueprint for the densities in this creation, and there are angels who are attracted to vibrations and flock to those whose vibrations are beautiful to them, but we may not feel beautiful when we are struggling, yet to those who vibrate in unconditional Love, the qualities of one who is seeking to learn and to serve are irresistible, and it takes a great deal of courage to persist in a spiritual preoccupation, so each of us is beautiful to those of Q’uo and to the angels. Q’uo continued by saying there are two basic energies which angels have to offer, and one is the energy of Love itself, and the other is a feeling of safety, which could be called a healing energy, so both of those aspects are the resources which angels have to offer, but angels also have connections with the four elements and the four directions so that as we become more aware of the correspondences between certain archangels and certain energies and certain directions, we become more able to cleanse our home with the help of the archangels. On June 7, 1990, Meta spoke of how the archangels could be asked to cleanse a place of spiritual working:
This instrument does that which is optional, but which may be of help to each. It asks for the Archangels, which will be described by a quality, to guard the place of working. It says, “Before me, Rafael.” This Archangel is a principle of Light. It is somewhat cold, it is full of wisdom. It has a Love that is impartial and relentless and will stand your friend without judgment, and shall not be moved.
The instrument then says, “Behind me, Gabriel.” This principle is a principle of the polarity and the generosity of Love in its manifestation. It offers from a never-failing jar the waters of life, the waters of Love. It has a great and gentle humor and shall never leave the thirsty seeker without spiritual drink.
The instruments then asks, “On my right hand, Michael.” This is an instrument, an example, an exemplar and a principle of divine fire. It is not only the divine fire of creation but that which will dispatch any that is not complete, whole, and positive. It is a warrior figure. As you become able to visualize this energy you may perhaps see an entity in various configurations of stance, which will let you know as you become more experienced what the general milieu about the group may be. It is at attention, the sword drawn, then be doubly [inaudible] careful with the tuning and the challenging. It is kneeling, sword down and looking alertly about, then all is well. Nothing can move this principle from its vigil.
The instrument then asks, “On my left hand, Ariel.” This is the absolute principle of free will. It is that which suggests that that which is born will also die; that that which is planted is also to be harvested. It suggests many subtle rhythms, and it guards the freedom of each to draw within its own rhythms as it speaks the concepts of those who you have asked to share information.
There is another class of angels that is indeed angelic and yet these angels have had incarnations. Those are the entities who have chosen to be angels but were not angels from the Creator. Yet between incarnations it became apparent to these souls that the work that they wished to do was angelic. And so, these entities were incarnated and lived for a short time on this terrestrial ball you call Earth. And then, seemingly far before their time, they were taken. Instead of moving into the healing of the incarnation and the choosing of another incarnation, these particular entities move into the angelic realm. They are able to become angels because of their innocence within incarnation. These little ones are especially fond of those whose hearts are open and are very grateful to rest in that open heart that will accept them.
As this instrument mentioned before the meditation began, it is critical, if you wish to work with angels, to thank them, and to ask them to participate in your life, to be with you and to share their love and their healing and their feeling of safety. If you do not ask them, they cannot break free will. Therefore, it is important to remember each day to thank the angels that are around you and to ask them to continue helping you. One way that this instrument and the one known as Jim ask for the angels’ help is when they bathe, for angels are very good at magnetizing such substances as water or oil. And if asked, angels can place healing energy into the bathwater or shower so that the water carries the vibration of Love and of healing. This is also true of substances such as food. If you ask the angels to help with the preparation of a food, they are able to help you magnetize Love into the food. Homely chores such as chopping wood or cleaning house are ennobled by the angels as they aid you in magnetizing Love to the motions that you make with your body and the thoughts that you think with your mind. We find it stupendous to contemplate the generosity of the infinite Creator in enriching the experience of each of those it has sent out to gain experience by making sure that there is no corner of the Creation that is not full of Love, not only on a passive level, but on the active level of those who love, those who care.
Q’uo went on to say there is another class of angels that is angelic, and these angels have had incarnations, but these are entities who have chosen to be angels but were not angels from the Creator, yet between incarnations it became apparent to these souls that the work they wished to do was angelic, so these entities were incarnated and lived for a time on Earth, and then, before their time, they were taken, and instead of moving into the healing of the incarnation and the choosing of another incarnation, these entities moved into the angelic realm, and they are able to become angels because of their innocence within incarnation, so these little ones are fond of those whose hearts are open and are grateful to rest in that open heart that will accept them. Now Q’uo said as Carla mentioned before the meditation began, it is critical, if we wish to work with angels, to thank them, and to ask them to participate in our life, to be with us and to share their love and their feeling of safety, but if we do not ask them, they cannot break free will, so it is important to remember each day to thank the angels that are around us and to ask them to continue helping us, and one way that Carla and Jim ask for the angels’ help is when they bathe, for angels are very good at magnetizing such substances as water or oil, and if asked, angels can place healing energy into the bathwater or shower so that the water carries the vibration of Love and of healing, and this is true of substances such as food, so if we ask the angels to help with the preparation of a food, they are able to help us magnetize Love into the food, and chores such as chopping wood or cleaning house are ennobled by the angels as they aid us in magnetizing Love to the motions that we make with our body and thoughts that we think with our mind, so Q’uo found it stupendous to contemplate the generosity of the infinite Creator in enriching the experience of each of us It has sent out to gain experience by making sure that there is no corner of the Creation that is not full of Love, not only on a passive level, but on the active level of those of us who love. On February 23, 1997, Q’uo described how we may serve others by asking help from angelic presences:
If an entity asks you for your views or in some other mode of questioning indicates a desire of an alternate view, then certainly you may jump in and do your best to share your own vision. However, when an entity has a determined and anchored view, the only level of help available to one who wishes to observe the Law of Free Will is prayer. One may pray that the loved entity may be set free from limiting confusion. One may visualize the entity awakening to a higher way. And in this way, one may place about that entity the angelic aid that such prayer alerts. And again, prayer is a kind of ritual, and when prayer is given from the heart it does alert what this instrument would call the angelic host so that when this entity moves through the veil of death there is more angelic light or love around the entity and more opportunity to sense a fuller truth during this transition. We would say, my sister, that it is not a great difficulty in terms of the experience after incarnation for the expectation to be deliberate, codified, and incorrect, for the entity has an infinite amount of time to travel back to its source, so time considerations which seem drastic within incarnation become considerably less impressive when seen from the viewpoint of eternity.
We are those of Q’uo, and would ask if there is a follow-up to this query at this time.
[Pause]
We are those of Q’uo, and as there is no follow-up to this query, we would ask if there is another query at this time within the group.
Questioner: I have a question, Q’uo, but I would first like to thank you for sharing that and sharing your love with us. My question is about the substance of marijuana, the chemical THC, and what effect it has on seeking of any given seeker. My question comes from my experience, which is that it has an impact that seems to be negative on my seeking. It lowers my energy in days following exposure to it. But at the time of using the substance I do feel a certain inspiration and a sort of freedom, so that’s my question. What is the nature of this substance and its effect on seeking?
We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query, my brother. Each substance has complex characteristics. Each food that you eat, each liquid that you drink, has those characteristics which are generally considered positive and those characteristics which are considered undesirable and therefore called something like “side effects.” The substance, marijuana, is no exception. In general, my brother, if you want to obtain maximally useful results from your observations and your witness during incarnation, you are best served by a completely pure and this instrument would say “sober,” base. Every substance you ingest, every substance you drink, creates not just one, but several different effects within the body, and, as the one known as S has said, it is quite so that every seeker will have a different experience of apples, or asparagus, or marijuana. However, none of asparagus’s side effects impact the spiritual life whereas in the case of marijuana, its effect on the spiritual life is inconstant and untrustable.
Questioner asked: “My question is about the substance of marijuana, the chemical THC, and what effect it has on seeking of any given seeker. My question comes from my experience, which is that it has an impact that seems to be negative on my seeking. It lowers my energy in days following exposure to it. But at the time of using the substance I do feel a certain inspiration and a sort of freedom, so that’s my question. What is the nature of this substance and its effect on seeking?” Q’uo began by saying each substance has complex characteristics so that each food that we eat and each liquid that we drink has characteristics which are considered positive and those which are considered undesirable and called “side effects,” and marijuana is no exception, so if we want to obtain useful results from our observations during incarnation, we are best served by a pure and “sober,” base because every substance we ingest creates several different effects within our body, and it is so that every seeker will have a different experience of apples, asparagus, or marijuana, but none of asparagus’s side effects impact the spiritual life whereas in the case of marijuana, its effect on the spiritual life is untrustable. Then Q’uo said the basic principle involved in this opinion is that principle which suggests that we will be able to open our mind, our body, and our spirit more as we become kindled by that spirit that yearns for the perfect giving of our self to service, and as we persist along this line of seeking the veil thins for us in a way which is safe for us, so the difficulty that Q’uo saw with the use of marijuana in our spiritual seeking is that it enables us to experience an environment for which we are not naturally prepared. On January 21, 2017, Q’uo suggested a limited use of marijuana:
The use of substances such as the marijuana or the LSD or the mescaline, and so forth, can be considered useful to a certain extent. That is, that the eyes are opened to a certain amount of a larger reality in which the nature of Love, of Light, of joy, of unity, are appreciated by such an entity. However, we would recommend that as in all experience or processing of catalyst within the third-density illusion, there is the opportunity to learn these basic lessons, and then to move in a, shall we say, more natural fashion for the further expression and experience of the higher levels of consciousness that are resulting from the personal efforts in what we would call a more natural manifestation of the meditation, the contemplation, the prayer, the utilizing of the catalyst of the daily round of experience. It is easy for some entities to become so used to the ease with which an expanded vision may be obtained in the use of these so-called drugs that there is not the exercise of the internal powers of perception and apprehension of the greater reality that is a natural portion of each seeker’s beingness. It is important for each seeker to exercise this natural ability to pursue understanding, if we may use this misnomer, in the daily round of activities. Thus, our recommendation is a limited and introductory use of such substances for the serious seeker of truth.
Thusly, while the experience is a good one, perhaps, at the time, the side effects that come with the use of marijuana, mainly the damping of the energies that you would normally have in more abundance, create the sum total experience of a positive time that you could not fully use because it was artificially created, and the cumulative effects of the use of marijuana, which involve weariness and a lack of motivation. It is to be noted that all of these effects, both positive and seemingly negative, are temporary. The chemicals in marijuana are chemicals which have an effect, here and there and here and there, and then within a month’s time they are gone.
Q’uo went on to say while the experience is a good one at the time, the side effects that come with the use of marijuana, the damping of the energies that we would normally have in more abundance, create experience of a positive time that we could not fully use because it was artificially created, and the cumulative effects of the use of marijuana, which involve weariness and a lack of motivation, so it is to be noted that all of these effects, both positive and negative, are temporary, and the chemicals in marijuana are chemicals which have an effect, here and there, and then within a month’s time they are gone. Q’uo went on to say it is a recreational mood changer, and as Carla can attest, it has medicinal qualities that are very appreciated by those who have chronic pain and chronic nausea, so there would be no reason for people to think of marijuana as an agent that will lead us astray, but in terms of improving the spiritual life, its uses are limited, so when we wish to improve our spiritual life, turn within because there is no shortcut outside of the vast reaches of our heart, so we must go within, to cross the boundary between the ordinary reality of everyday life and the reality that is the environment of our open heart. On June 14, 2005, Q’uo spoke of the nature of our open heart:
It is the innermost part of that essence of yourself which does not experience much change within incarnation. It is the innermost part of the heart of your true self, which as you have said this day is a citizen of eternity, and to capitulate further things that were said earlier in a non-sacred environment, we would say within this sacred space that you live and move and have your being in the unity and in the love of your open heart.
In olden times and in some tribes of those who live in the indigenous way to your present day, there would be the time of dying to the self in one way or another, whether it was a case of physically being immured in a cave or whether it was being buried alive for a certain amount of time. There were rituals in which there was the experience of death. And when that individual arose from the sweat lodge or the shaman’s quest, for the first time there was the true appreciation of the gift of life. To have a keener, freer, wilder experience takes patience if it is done properly. Yet when you have come into states of mind that are altered, and you have moved into them naturally, you are ready for the wisdom of the experience to impress itself upon you, and you are ready for the responsibility of what you now know. As the one known as Ra said, “There are no mistakes but there are sometimes surprises.” To create an environment in which your surprises are likely to please you, we encourage you to seek within.
Now Q’uo said our people have ingested, drunk, and smoked in an amazing variety of natural and manmade substances through the years of our history, working with outer things to attempt to achieve a result, and no result was found that was satisfactory, so meanwhile, quietly and invisibly, person after person has gone within and walked through the deserts of the self, climbed the mountains of the self, sailed on the oceans of the self, and in every emotion and in every situation the limitless potential of our consciousness awaits, so the most effective spiritual practice is to believe in the spiritual practice and to seek it as does a lover its mate, but it may seem trivial to encourage us to have intimate feelings about our spiritual life, yet it is very healthy for our spirit to crave for the presence of the one Creator which we have within us, yet it is a journey over desert, mountain, and ocean to come to that magic island at the center of our heart where lives Love, wild and free, so Q’uo encouraged us to enjoy our selves as we will because they do not condemn marijuana, and they are saying that for the serious seeker, that which we manipulate shall be within our self. Then Q’uo said in olden times and in some tribes of those who live in the indigenous way to our present day, there would be the time of dying to the self in one way or another, whether it was a case of physically being confined in a cave, or whether it was being buried alive for a certain amount of time, there were rituals in which there was the experience of death, and when that individual arose from the sweat lodge or the shaman’s quest, for the first time there was the true appreciation of the gift of life, so to have a wilder experience takes patience if it is done properly, yet when we have come into states of mind that are altered, and we have moved into them naturally, we are ready for the wisdom of the experience to impress itself upon us, and we are ready for the responsibility of what we now know, so as Ra said, “There are no mistakes, but there are surprises,” and to create an environment in which our surprises are likely to please us, Q’uo encouraged us to seek within. On September 7, 1980, Q’uo spoke of the need for us to seek within:
My sister, we would say to you that, indeed, for all of the inhabitants of Earth such an opportunity is being held wide open, that the opportunity to advance in your manifestation and experiencing of the Love of the infinite Creator is within each of your beings. That is why we feel it is of utmost importance for each of your people to seek within for that spark of Love which shall Light the way on their journey. And their journey shall take them many places; and their journey shall indeed result in the reaping of a harvest for each. For it is the time upon your plane for the harvest of the crop. The seeds long have been sown, the seeds of the divine Creator, the seeds within all of Creation. Many have fallen on barren ground. Many have fallen on ground which has been tended somewhat, yet some weeds grow. Few have fallen on fertile ground, but we assure you that within each of your beings the fertile ground to sow such seeds exists and the opportunity to more fully and completely experience the Love of the Creator is available.
May we answer you further, my brother? We are those of Q’uo.
Questioner: No. I’m very satisfied. Thank you.
We thank you, my brother, for your query. We would ask if there is another query in the circle at this time. We are those of Q’uo.
[Side one of tape ends.]
G: Q’uo, M writes: “Can personal events be metaphysically manipulated by negatively-oriented entities in order to give the outer appearance of synchronicity? If so, how does this demonstrate the Law of One and how can one best discern between true and false synchronicity?”
We are those of Q’uo, and are aware of your query, my brother. My brother, we would say that it is entirely possible that negative entities might be interested in a certain entity and might find it useful to manipulate events so as to create synchronicity that would help to persuade a person to feel that certain thoughts were helpful. As always, those behind the veil, unable to see the true vibrations of unseen friends, must depend upon their powers of observation and discernment. If an unseen friend of the negative orientation were attempting to persuade you, for instance, that it was a good idea to break free of a relationship or otherwise destabilize your life, it would work only if the person being persuaded wanted that persuasion.
Consequently, we would encourage each seeker to look at synchronicities and rather than scooping them up wholesale without thought, look at and ponder the pattern being made by synchronicity. If the pattern is one which does not sit well with you for some reason, we would encourage you to trust that and to lift away from finding importance in such synchronicity. The principle of the Law of One which bears upon this question is the principle of free will. This instrument, for instance, was once given the negative impression that she could not breathe. Try as she might she could not bring air into her lungs. However, this psychic greeting was unable to be effective because its effect depended upon the instrument panicking and losing faith that all was well. As it happened, this instrument was well aware of the greeting, as it had been ongoing for some time, and simply walked on, thinking that, probably, eventually she would fall to the ground because there was no more air, and that when unconscious the psychic greeting would no longer have an effect and she would regain her ability to breathe. Consequently, there was no fear. And after perhaps a minute of this situation being ongoing it lifted away and was gone.
M’s question was: “Can personal events be metaphysically manipulated by negatively-oriented entities in order to give the outer appearance of synchronicity? If so, how does this demonstrate the Law of One, and how can one best discern between true and false synchronicity?” Q’uo began by saying that it is possible that negative entities might be interested in us and might find it useful to manipulate events so as to create synchronicity that would help to persuade us to feel that certain thoughts were helpful, and those of us behind the veil, unable to see the vibrations of unseen friends, must depend upon our powers of discernment, so if an unseen friend of the negative orientation were attempting to persuade us that it was a good idea to break free of a relationship or destabilize our life, it would work only if we wanted that persuasion. Then Q’uo encouraged us to look at synchronicities and ponder the pattern being made by synchronicity, and if the pattern is one which does not sit well with us Q’uo would encourage us to trust that and to lift away from finding importance in such synchronicity, so the principle of the Law of One which bears upon this question is the principle of free will, so Carla was once given the negative impression that she could not breathe, and try as she might she could not bring air into her lungs, but this psychic greeting was unable to be effective because its effect depended upon Carla panicking and losing faith that all was well, and she was aware of the greeting, as it had been ongoing for some time, and she walked on, thinking that she would fall to the ground because there was no more air, and that when she was unconscious the psychic greeting would no longer have an effect, and she would regain her ability to breathe, so there was no fear, and after a minute of this situation lifted away and was gone. On November 13, 2010, Q’uo said that if we have the faith that all is well that all will be well because we are part of the Creator’s Love:
Yet if you are thinking over and over again about the same thing without finding an answer, without finding comfort, then you may be sure that you are placing your mind in a precinct of fear. And if you live in fear, you shall draw to you what you fear. Resisting what is occurring at the moment is an exercise in fear.
This instrument was speaking earlier of not being content for hours with a certain situation and finally realizing that she did not need to carry this load. She then claimed by faith that all was well and felt the load slide off of her back, off of the wagon that she was pulling of this and that.
There is a reason to know and claim that all is well. It is a simple reason. The Creator is Love. You are part of the Creator. And you are part of that Love. Every humble task that you accomplish is also a spiritually vivid and living task. There is nothing so humble that it does not sing of the beauty of the Creator.
The one known as L spoke recently in a circle like this one of experiencing a concert, first as full of negativity where the words to the songs seemed to be violent and hurtful, and the energy of those in the audience seemed to be shallow and driven by substance abuse. Yet she persisted and moved to a level where she was able to see the love pouring out of every heart, every instrument, every note. And her environment changed from an environment of hell to one of heaven. You have this capacity within you to make heaven of hell or hell of heaven. We encourage you to believe in the truth, which is that heaven lies within you. It is accessible. It is as if you were looking at a closed door. The key to that door is silence. Open it. Walk into your own heart and fly away. There you are safe. There you are loved. There you shall become capable of loving. We are with you; the angels are with you.
Then Q’uo said there is a tremendous amount of play that we have with the steering of our mind, and there is a great deal to learn about the discipline that we can exercise over our thoughts, so it is the work of our incarnation to become an artist with perception working with thought in a creative way but not fooling our self, being insightful and moving into the verticality of a moment so that it opens up like a flower rather than moving horizontally past the moment in search of a distant goal, so the web of synchronicity is valid, and it is offered from all sides that are attracted to our situation, and it takes discernment to sort out the richness of information that is coming into us at all times because it is the work of a lifetime, and we need to remember that what we see often depends upon how we choose to perceive. Now Q’uo completed their reply by saying L spoke recently in a circle like this one of experiencing a concert, first as full of negativity where the words to the songs seemed to be violent and hurtful, and the energy of those in the audience seemed to be shallow and driven by substance abuse, yet she persisted and moved to a level where she was able to see the love pouring out of every heart, every instrument, every note, and her environment changed from an environment of hell to one of heaven, and we have this capacity within us to make heaven of hell or hell of heaven, so Q’uo encouraged us to believe in the truth that heaven lies within us, and it is as if we were looking at a closed door, and the key to that door is silence, so we can open it and walk into our own heart and fly away, and there we are loved, and we shall become capable of loving, so Q’uo and the angels are with us. On August 2, 1988, Q’uo said that the heaven is within us:
Yes, my friends, the Kingdom of Heaven lies within you. Offer yourself sacrificially when your time has come, and you will not feel the pain, but only the joy, a joy without end, for you dwell in eternity when you seek to serve. May you always be merry, my friends, for the seekers upon the path must laugh, must make the jokes, must have the light touch. Do not be solemn in your seeking, or flail yourself with the sackcloth and ashes, but keep yourself self-forgiven and open yourself to the utter redemptive perfection of the infinite Creator’s Love.
At this time we find that it is time to leave this group and this instrument, leaving each in the love and in the light of the one infinite Creator. We are known to you as those of Q’uo. Adonai. Adonai my friends.
This morning I went outside and used my trimmer to weed the cross in the back yard, the Sun Mandal Dahlia Garden behind the garage, and both sides of the Forsythia bushes on the south, west, and north sides in the back yard. Then I used my backpack blower to blow all of these areas clean.
This afternoon I visited my neighbor from across the street in her room in the Valhalla Care Home, and I gave her a chocolate milkshake, which is her favorite snack. Then I showed her some pictures and videos of my flower garden. On my way back home I stopped at Paul’s Fruit Market and bought another trayf Dahlias and some food for myself.
From A Book of Days, channeled by Carla L. Rueckert:

The Consciousness Of Love
I am the Holy Spirit to which this child prays; that principle of love which greets you in the name of Jesus the Christ.
We of the principle of the consciousness known as Love are many, for there are many perceptions of Love and each vibration requires its own Comforter. And so, we speak in many tongues, whether it be in language or in emotions.
Indeed, the consciousness of Love is a feeling more than a word, since feelings are pictures brought forth from deep places, their complex bouquet undisturbed by the prying fingers of small words. May that principle which you seek and which you offer be all in all to you as you extend your legs in running the race of life experience during this day.
May you turn not to the small and petty concerns which are so easily spelled out in words to the exclusion of the glorious remembrance of Love.
Peace be with you.
I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:
We come in the name of love and open our hearts, minds, and souls to send love, light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density. We ask that the infinite love, light, and healing energy of the One Infinite Creator heal the hearts of all souls in pain on Earth tonight. May all souls on Earth feel our love, light, and healing energy in their hearts, their minds, and their souls. Amen.
