Our sources tell us so much about our roles as Starseeds.

We come from higher dimensions. Many of us have light bodies. But many of us come from dimensions where we have no bodies.

Sue Lie was describing to me a meeting of the Arcturian High Council, whose participants are formless beings. I asked her how a formless being sits in a chair and she replied dryly: “There are no chairs.”

None of us, probably, has any conception of what that must be like and yet she is describing many of us, whether we know it or not. But this kind of newness is what we’ll encounter every day. It will only increase.

We’ve experienced Ascension many times already and consented to come to this planet to assist its inhabitants with theirs. As Archangel Michael put it to me, “you have agreed to be human.” I asked him what one gives up by having made that agreement? “Huge portions of memory,” he replied. (1)

According to the Arcturians, “the greatest trap of the third dimension … is the trap of forgetfulness.” None of us remembers who we are or where we came from and this binds us. Speaking of our situation, they said:

“It is the forgetfulness that traps those that have achieved great states of consciousness for they forget that they are not their body. They forget that they are wearing their body and then they begin to think that they are their body.

“And then they start listening to the primal urges of their body – the guilt, the fear, the anger and of course the most primitive and the most basic is the urge for procreation, sexuality.” (2)

Starseeds also give up what Archangel Michael called “the ability for instantaneous creation.” But the dearest sacrifice of all is “the deepest connection and knowing of the unification and the presence of all.” Without a sense of unity, there’s no unitive consciousness. “That is what you have forfeited as it were – sacrificed, put on hold,” Archangel Michael said. (3)

The Arcturians suggest that we “come to Earth … as a step-down transformer.” (4) “Whenever you raise your frequency into your true self,” the energy is transmitted into Gaia and back again and then “that shift of planetary energy … comes back into you, into your core and your kundalini.” This “greatly expands your experience of the flow of kundalini – and then [brings] … that nowness of the bliss and the nowness of the euphoria.” (5) I’m sure more and more of us each day are experiencing that bliss and euphoria.

The Pleiadians use the image of a bridge to describe the work of us Starseeds.

“Souls who’ve come from our collective and from various other collectives working with the Galactic Federation and the Light Forces overall, have incarnated on your world in a direct effort to become bridges between the higher dimensions and the Earthly realms they’ve funneled themselves down into.” (6)

Our climbing the stairs of self-knowledge offers an example to terrestrials that they can emulate. The Celestial White Beings (or angels) suggest how that works.

“You have been chosen to be upon the Earth at this time for a specific reason, which is [suggested by] the beautiful and powerful being that you are. Rediscovering yourself allows … all to rediscover the truth of the Creator.” (7)

Saan through Wes Annac reminds us that we knew the costs and benefits of coming to Earth.

“You knew that your perception of the realms of spirit from the lower-dimensional Earth would help uplift the collective enormously, and you knew that you’d enjoy the experiences you had immensely as you came to find enlightenment and came to enjoy your Earthly experiences.

“It was known by many of you that the struggles would be nearly endless and more difficult than could be perceived from the higher dimensions, but you knew that a silver lining was present; a grand Light at the end of the long, dark Earthly tunnel, so to speak.” (8)

And not all of us stayed the course, White Cloud reports:

“So, my friends, although at times so many of you feel like giving up, like giving in, like the feeling of, “I cannot do this anymore!” I say to you, go deep within your soul and recognize that you came down here because you were chosen, because you, each one of you, have with inside of you the strength of great warriors of light. It was that many of you volunteered to come. …

“There were others that volunteered, my friends. And yet they were not strong enough to see this through. So it is that my message to you this day is to understand that you are the ones that are changing your world. Because you have the knowing to do so.” (9)

Mother Mary knows our struggles. She says:

”For many it is bringing up doubts and resistance. For many it is still bringing up those parts of you that still cling to old beliefs of what you think you are, of who you think you are.” (10)

But we’re at last nearing the time when the veil is to be lifted and our self-knowledge restored, Saan tells us:

“The time has now come for you to accept your own divine nature. It will now become increasingly important, as well as easier, for you to do this.” (11)

In our march towards self-knowledge, Archangel Michael counsels us not to look outside, not to follow others, but to find our own light and lighten our own path.

Many of you are still seeking outside yourself, turning to those you think are more powerful or more knowledgeable than you, hoping they will lead the way so you will not have to step to the forefront into untested territory.

“We tell you, Beloved Ones, this will not work. You, as Wayshowers and Pathfinders, must Lighten your own path, draw on your own precious inner wisdom, which has been paid for and won through many long ages of experience, trials and suffering, and ultimately, success. (12)

He encourages us to keep moving forward until we find the self-worth that self-knowledge brings.

“Do not rest until you have found the feeling of self-worth that will arise when you understand at last who you truly are. You really did ask to come here. You truly did desire to witness and participate in this unfolding. You truly are the very best choices for this time.” (13)

As wayshowers, we need to let go of dysfunctional programs of rescuing others and instead come together, share, and help others to see their own authentic power. That’s how we’ll all rise together, Archangel Gabrielle says.

“We are asking you to not only lift yourself up but to lift others up, as well. That means letting go of fixing or rescuing others but rather encouraging them in their own authentic power. It is about sharing information, it is about sharing love, it is about sharing your advantage. It is about understanding that there is more than enough for everyone. It is about letting go of lack based consciousness.

“It is about seeing yourself as being healed and whole and divine, and seeing others as being healed and whole and divine, as well. You are the human beings of light on earth, that is who you are. Anything that suggests you are less than that is illusion and these new energies are stripping away those illusions.” (14)

Mother Mary encourages us to dive deep within ourselves.

“Deep down you know of your nature, your Divine Nature. Deep down you know of its possibilities and its consequences. Deep down you recognize yourself more and more, as the veils are lifted from your hearts and as you accept yourselves truly and absolutely.” (15)

Thus we Starseeds accepted the veil of forgetfulness. We’re now seeing, by the rise of love and bliss in us, the approaching end to our self-imposed condition of self-forgetfulness. Whether seen as wayshowers or pathfinders or bridges, we’re here to show the way to the higher dimensions by going through the same upliftment process that Third-Dimensional beings go through and sharing what we see and feel.

Having paid a price in forgetfulness, having endured loneliness, boredom, and lack, we now approach the time when the blissfulness of our inner state suggests that release is in the offing. While many around us will not know what’s occurring, we know that our mounting the staircase of consciousness is intended to show others who have not walked this way before how Ascension is accomplished.

Stephen: Interesting that this is ‘leaking’ out now…

By Nick Squires, The Telegraph UK – August 21, 2013

A “mystical experience” during a dialogue with God convinced Pope Emeritus Benedict to resign as head of the Roman Catholic Church earlier this year, he has said.

“God told me to do it,” the 86-year-old former pontiff told a friend, six months after his decision to step down shocked the world’s 1.2 billion Catholics.

God had implanted in his heart the “absolute desire” to resign and to devote himself to a life of prayer and reflection, Benedict told the anonymous confidante, according to Zenit, a Rome-based Catholic news agency.

“It was not because of any type of apparition or phenomenon of that sort,” he said, but instead the result of a “mystical experience” received during “a direct rapport with the Lord”.

He said the more he sees the “charisma” of Pope Francis, his successor, the more he is convinced that it was “the will of God” that he became the first pontiff in 600 years to resign.

Francis, the former archbishop of Buenos Aires, has won huge popularity with his down-to-earth and direct style, renouncing many of the trappings of office, visiting a favela slum during his week-long trip to Brazil last month and calling for a “poor Church”.

The conversation between Benedict and the confidante took place in Mater Ecclesiae, the former convent within the walls of the Vatican that has been converted into a retirement home for the German former pope.

Vatican sources confirmed the veracity of the report but declined to reveal the identity of the person that Benedict spoke to.

“The report is reliable, without a doubt, although this is not an official Vatican statement or position,” an insider told The Daily Telegraph.

Benedict surprised the world, including cardinals and close aides within the Vatican, when he unexpectedly announced his intention to resign on Feb 11.

He made the announcement during a gathering of cardinals in the Vatican, choosing to deliver the bombshell in Latin.

Many of the cardinals did not immediately understand what he had said, but the news was picked up by a sharp-eared correspondent from Ansa, the Italian news agency, who happened to be well versed in Latin and landed herself a worldwide scoop.

Benedict, the former Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, left the Vatican for the last time as Pope just over two weeks later, flying off in a white helicopter to Castel Gandolfo, a hilltop castle outside Rome used as a papal retreat during the hot summer months.

Pope Francis was elected as the first non-European pontiff in 1,300 years, and the first from the Americas, during a secret conclave of 115 cardinals in March.

Benedict returned to live in the Vatican in May, saying that he would remain “hidden from the world”, devoting the rest of his life to prayer and theological study.

His remarks will do little to dampen speculation about the more worldly reasons for his departure.

Although old and frail, he does not appear to be suffering from any specific illness, prompting speculation about his true motives.

His papacy, which began in 2005, was mired in controversy, including scandals over paedophile priests in Catholic dioceses around the world, allegations of money laundering by the Vatican bank, and intrigue within the Curia, the powerful but secretive Vatican administration.

It has been claimed that he was deeply hurt by the betrayal of his butler, Paolo Gabriele, who stole confidential Vatican documents and handed them to an Italian investigative journalist who published them in a bestselling book.

The move follows the Financial Conduct Authority’s crackdown on CPP, an insurer that specialises in ID and credit card theft protection Photo: Alamy

Stephen: Yet another case of the banking industry being held accountable for ripping people off. This time with misleading insurance policies. While the amount of compensation owed to individuals is minimal it’s the whopping overall total that shows just how lucrative such schemes have been to these greedy financial pilferers.

By Steve Hawkes, and Philip Aldrick, The Telegraph, UK – August 22, 2013

Seven million people are in line for compensation of up to £300 each after Britain’s biggest banks agreed to foot the bill for years of mis-selling credit card and ID theft insurance cover.

The City regulator confirmed that 13 banks and financial services companies had signed up to £1.3 billion scheme.

They referred customers applying for credit and debit cards to insurance specialist CPP, which sold them policies the regulator claims were never needed.

Customers who bought the cover as far back as 2000 could be in line for payouts. The Financial Conduct Authority today said that seven million customers, who either bought or renewed policies during 2005 and 2011 were in line for money.

Some 4.4 million policies were sold by CPP and the banks during the six years in question, but another 18 million were renewed.

If customers are due compensation, they will be entitled to the amount paid for their policy since January 14 2005, plus 8pc interest on any sum owed.

Barclays, Santander, Royal Bank of Scotland, HSBC, Tesco Personal Finance and MBNA are among the 13 banks and financial institutions that face a payout.

Sources last night claimed Barclays is likely to be facing the biggest hit, in a fresh blow for new chief executive Antony Jenkins. He was chief executive of Barclaycard while some of the mis-selling was taking place.

Martin Wheatley, FCA chief executive, said: “We believe this will be a good outcome for customers who may have been mis-sold the card and identity protection policies.

“Subject to CPP’s customers approving the scheme, these policy holders will be able to claim a full refind of premiums with interest.”

He added: “We have been encouraged that, working closely with the FCA and despite their different business needs, a large number of firms have voluntarily come together to create a redress scheme that wil provide a fair outcome for customers.

“This kind of collaborative and responsible approach is a good example of how firms are taking more responsibility and helping – step by step – to rebuild trust.”

CPP was fined £10.5 million by the FCA last year for its role in the mis-selling and has battled to stay in business ever since. Details of a new bank facility published on July 31 reveal that it will have to renegotiate the loan if more than 25 per cent of customers due compensation seek redress.

The FCA said that in most cases, the credit card and ID theft cover sold by CPP and the banks was not required, as it was already provided on the cards, or the risks and consequences of not taking the insurance out were overstated.

The compensation scheme is another body blow for a banking sector still reeling from the Payment Protection Insurance crisis.

Earlier this month the bill for PPI hit £18.4bn – double the cost of the London 2012 Olympics.

A number of banks have already make provision for the cost and will not make a statement today. Lloyds Banking Group is not involved as its card and identity theft insurance was provided by another company but Bank of Scotland does fall under the scheme.

Negotiations between the regulator, the banks and CPP have been going on for months as they sought to strike a deal to recompense customers without bankrupting CPP.

The specialist insurer was thrown a £36m lifeline by its banking syndicate of Santander, Barclays and Royal Bank of Scotland last month, saving 700 jobs, after new three-year facilities were agreed.

Under the terms of the agreement, the banks which sold CPP products will write to customers to inform them that they may be eligible for compensation. Alongside the banks, CPP will also have to provide compensation itself.

However, no payments are expected to be made until 2014 since the scheme must first be approved by the High Court.

Channeled Pleiadian Interview: Breaking Stereotype and Reaching Everyone

Montague Keen – August 18, 2013

What was shown to you this week proves conclusively that the Light of Truth will triumph. Preparations are well under way. Be prepared for the unexpected. The element of surprise is important. You have seen the evidence of this. There are people in key positions around your world who are aware of what is expected of them. They will not be found wanting.

My dear, all is in Divine Order. Our time has come to rescue humanity from the evil influences that took control of it, and from their plans to destroy all that was not required by them. We needed to place some of the greatest minds who ever walked the Earth in position, in order to lead humanity. They will be revealed when the timing is right. Some are now learning who they really are and why they are on Earth at this time. Their real identity had to be kept strictly secret, even from themselves. They have lived ordinary lives up until now, though occasionally, they were given hints as to the important roles they were expected to play in the Transition. Now they are having to take on board the enormity of the task they agreed to carry out before returning to Earth. They are finding each other and everything is falling into place. All the pieces of the puzzle are coming together, just as was planned.

My dear, it was no accident that Rupert Sheldrake could not accept the invitation to your dinner party discussion, suggesting instead that you invite me in his place, all those years ago. Spirit used Rupert so that I could get to you.

A problem was created with RYANAIR at Dublin Airport. This was used to bring another one to your attention. You are now realising the importance of that event. The World of Spirit will use whatever is necessary to get the right people together. Leave the worrying to us. We will get the right people in the right place at the right time.

I know, my dear, you sometimes look at the people who are around you and wonder how these people ever managed to get to you. Now, you know, nothing happens by chance! Our team on Earth is ready and willing to follow instructions at the appropriate time and that is something we will decide.

I know it is very distressing for you to see what is happening in Egypt and Iraq, etc. So many innocent people are being caught up in this mayhem. The take-over of these countries was planned by the Cabal many years ago and they are desperately clinging to that plan, even though they are now beginning to see that they will never be allowed to succeed. Their killing spree will be stopped. They are using individuals who are totally brainwashed, to go into these countries in order to divide and conquer, and to carry out orders without thought of the consequences.

People are waking up to the lies they are being told. You can see this for yourselves as the evidence of what is being done is clear. Ask yourselves why the “ruling countries” are preparing for WAR. What are they planning? Is this a last gasp attempt to hold on? Look at their eyes as they try to convince you that they really must “invade to protect” or that “there are weapons of mass destruction” etc. How can they possibly believe that they can deceive the people anymore? The TRUTH is out there. It can no longer be hidden.

Humanity will be helped to recover. The right help has been organised to step in and provide all that is necessary to recover from this onslaught. There are ships surrounding Planet Earth with everything that you could possibly need to rebuild and restore everything that was destroyed by the Cabal. This does not require money. All will be given and peace will be restored. You are in a war between good and evil: but good will win. Planet Earth will soon resume its rightful place in the universe and all channels of communication will be restored once again. It needed enough of you to wake up, in order to bring this about. Do continue to wake people up, so that they can enjoy the experience of taking part in the most important enterprise in the history of your world. It does not matter which country you belong to. You are all important, so do not accept what you are told about certain countries. Veronica has had contact with people in countries which you were told were closed to such information, such as China, Korea, and Russia, etc. They, too, are waking up and are most welcome to join this great family that knows no bounds or restrictions. All one, in the pursuit of truth and justice for all.

Do not allow anger or mistrust to colour your thoughts. Look on everything with a loving heart as this changes everything. You have all been imprisoned in the lower dimensions where fear is your jailer: fear of religion, fear of the law, no matter how unjust it is. Fear is instilled from birth. It is only when you see it for what it is, that you become free.

Send love to everyone, everywhere. You will be amazed at the results it will bring. LOVE can destroy the power of the Cabal. Love is pure and good. It enhances the lives of those who love and are loved. Write the word LOVE in big letters and hold it aloft. Come together in the name of love, and let love be your guiding light as you progress on the road to the Transition.

My dear, all is as it should be. Always, your adoring, Monty.
