The Federation of Light via Blossom Goodchild: October 19, 2013



Blossom Goodchild newAnthony: Blossom writes,,..”I loved their energy today … it put a real grin on my face”.

The Federation of Light, channeled by Blossom Goodchild: October 19, 2013 – http://www.blossomgoodchild.com/index.html?page=BG192oct19.html

Blossom: Welcome my friends. I have been wondering what today’s conversation shall entail. Although, if I may … there are a couple of things I would like to address on behalf of some readers who have asked me to ask you about Comet ISON. Now I personally really know nothing much at all regarding where it is heading, so therefore have no idea where this conversation is heading either … Is that ok? Over to you if I may?

Federation of Light: Firstly we welcome you also. There is much Love and excitement still within and around your planet … which we should also care to address. Yet to comment on the comet. You are quite correct Blossom in your replies to these souls who inquire. If indeed there was to be an up and coming ‘mishap’ with this travelling object … do you not think we would have addressed if before now?

For in this circumstance we can categorically state that there shall be no harm ‘sent’ toward your planet as it draws closer to your sacred sun. If one chooses to be of concern we ask them to let go of the fear around the matter. Again … what does one choose to focus upon? And we would care to comment also … that along with so many ‘proposals’ of Earth’s Eventualities … the idea that it shall cause a great deal of destruction to your Mother Earth is simply another fear mongering tactic.

Yet a certain gentleman that has written in and looked into the matter greatly would disagree as ‘signs show’ that this indeed could be the case according to certain astronomers etc. and that the Truth about it is once again being hidden and in fact there is every possibility that we are doomed. Please note … these are not my thoughts or feelings … I am just passing the message on from concerned souls.

Dearest souls … How one has so struggled with emotional upheaval concerning many, many matters as you walk ‘with Grace and ease’ into the NEW WORLD!

We have stated before and we shall continue to do so … in order to move into a NEW WORLD … the one that you upon Earth and all that are not … created long ago … would you not consider it to be a rather ‘ridiculous’ plan … to have the end of one age that is to be proceeded by a Golden One to finish in massive death … destruction and chaos?

We ask you to seriously THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT!!!

How much gloom and doom have you been fed for breakfast, lunch and dinner??

How much more do you choose to be fed?

Have you … our dearest friends … not had your fill?

Are you Beings of Light not sufficiently stuffed with that which goes totally against the grain?

When will you stop?

When, dearest souls of planet Earth, will you stop to consider that which you are considering?

YOU ARE LOVE … HAS THIS NOT SUNK IN BY NOW?

I have to stop you there as I have a huge grin on my face … for I really feel a different energy with you … one with so much humour.

We thought perhaps a different way of Lightness may assist one to ‘GET IT’!

We urge you … we implore you … STOP THE FEAR!

STOP THINKING ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF ANYTHING AT ALL THAT IS NOT OF LOVE.

TAKE NOT ONE JOT OF NOTICE OF WHAT IS BEING SAID … IF IT IS NOT BEING SAID IN/THROUGH/OF LOVE.

We are aware of comments that some have written to you Blossom … asking us to become more interesting for we ‘apparently’ are very boring when we continue to speak of this matter … This subject … LOVE .

Yet … we shall not stop. We shall never stop … until of course each one has ‘GOT IT ‘.

Until each one realises that when you soak up one iota of fear … you create the next iota of it!

The minute … the very minute … concerning ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING IN YOUR LIFE … that there is a suspect of uneasiness … STOP whatever it is that is causing that feeling and CHANGE it …

MOVE ON into the place of easiness … the place that makes you smile.

STOP … STOP … STOP … WORRYING about this and that and whether or not it will or will not happen.

LEARN … right now this minute … that ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS SMILE!

Not from your mouth … from your heart … When your heart is smiling because you FEEL of/in/as Love then you have ‘GOT IT’.

You will realise that there is nothing else to do!

How quickly would your world turn around when rid of the energy of worrying about this and that and the other and then some more of the same?

Say what do you want to say Blossom?

There’s no hiding from you is there? Well, OK then. In all TRUTH … sometimes ‘I worry’ that maybe there is no Event! What if … once again … we are all hyped up over the next few months and …. Nothing … Nada … I mean … where does that leave us?

We would imagine worrying? Are we correct?

Ha! Not if we heeded your words and were not of the worrying sort anymore.

What if … as of this moment … this very second … each one of you decided to stop worrying … about LIFE?

Do you think when you agreed to come down to Earth … TO BE HERE FOR THIS INCREDIBLE TRANSFERENCE, you all had a meeting and decided you would probably benefit if you spent your entire life worrying whether or not something was or wasn’t going to happen?

OF COURSE NOT!

Yet BEING THE INTELLIGENT BEINGS THAT YOU ARE … it is far more likely that you held a mass meeting and decided that, as volunteers that had been chosen … you might as well put your heads together and BRING ABOUT THIS CHANGE IN THE MOST GLORIOUS OF WAYS … THE MOST GLORIOUS OF SETTINGS.

You were the ones who decided about all this long ago … Let’s not forget that!

It would have been rather out of favour would it not … to have decided for it all to end really, really, REALLY disastrously and then those ‘left over’ would do the best they can to pick up the pieces and TRY and start all over again?

WAKE UP PEOPLE!

WAKE UP!

WAKE UP!

Remove this humdrum activity of your lives out of your mindsets.

SERIOUSLY! SERIOUSLY! SERIOUSLY think about this.

Why would you do such a thing? Why would you choose for it all to end badly?

WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY?

YOU WOULDN’T!

YOU DIDN’T!

Yet, you have fallen into the mire of despair and have chosen to believe that which the mire of despair offers … and cheap at half the price.

LISTEN TO WHAT YOU ARE ATTUNING TO … DOES IT MAKE ANY SENSE TO THE INTELLIGENT BEINGS THAT YOU ARE?

WE DON’T THINK SO!

So we say with such fun in our Beings … for we are so enjoying this banter …

Oh and so am I … I can’t write quick enough ….

Listen up … and listen up good!

STOP WORRYING about whether or not THE EVENT is going to happen!

Stop worrying about WHEN it is going to happen.

AMEN!

Why worry? Either way … whether it will or won’t take place … Do you think worrying will make the difference as to whether it does or it doesn’t?

BE FREE FROM IT ALL.

ALLOW YOUR HEARTS TO KNOW THAT IT WILL.

FOR YOUR HEARTS DO KNOW THIS … DO THEY NOT?

Well, as I have said many times before … yes, my heart knows it. It just doesn’t know when … and little point in ‘geeing us up’ once again … if the ‘when’ is not going to be for another 50 years or so!

Would that not be a little out of sorts for us to use the words ‘imminent” therefore?

Guess so! I know you can’t and won’t give dates which I am more than relieved about … or my head could be on the chopping block. Moving on then … A dear friend of mine has recently reviewed over a year of your messages and through all that he has only one question he has asked me to forward on to you. So … here it is:

When you say “All is well …” are we to assume that this also means for the masses of people who are not aware of the imminent Event? In other words, are you satisfied that only a miniscule number of people have been apprised worldwide? No religious body and very few spiritual sources speak of such a happening … Are we correct to conclude that the element of surprise in this case is not such a bad thing?

We would answer this by saying that although you are ‘assuming’ many are unaware of it … this is not necessarily the case, on a deeper level of the self.

The fact is … that every one of the souls on this planet KNOWS that The Event is to take place … for each one agreed to be here at this time. As to whether or not they choose to be aware of it on the human aspect of their soul self , that resides on Planet Earth at this time … is another matter.

Yet we express that WHEN THE EVENT OCCURS … Each one will have a recognition of TRUTH within the deepest place of their soul .

The recognition shall be felt for some as if they once dreamt it … or perhaps even a déjà vu … perhaps some will INSTANTANEOUSLY change from the ogre to the prince.

As we have said, and White Cloud has concurred … that it shall be too … that some souls shall leave their physicality … their human form … in that time … for the revelation shall cause their heart to stop beating … and some …. shall literally forget to breath. Yet NO-ONE shall miss out on the GLORY. Not one soul shall ‘miss the boat’.

Yet … many would ask at this point … ‘What about the dark souls of this planet and all the atrocities they have brought upon another human soul … thousands of human souls?’

And we should reply … ‘Like it or not … they are your sisters and your brothers‘.

A hard one to take is it not?

Well … to be honest … your answer didn’t surprise me … for in TRUTH … We are all One … The good … the bad … and the ugly!

Yet … this is not to say … that suddenly all misgivings shall be instantly removed from the souls ‘field’. There is still Divine Law in place … and we would say in a way of kindness … ‘YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW’. There is no escape from this.

Yet, as we have spoken of before … ALL IS NOT AS IT SEEMS … and we would add … in many, many cases.

So to sum it all up … your theme song for the day would be ‘Don’t worry … be happy’?

Not just for the day dearest friends … Always.

LET GO … AND KNOW!

Wow, that hour went so fast … as did my typing … a lot of typos to correct I expect!

Thoroughly enjoyable … Thank you so much … In Love Light … and as they here in Australia say … No worries mate!!

Jesus via John Smallman: Your Egos Are Like Teenagers.



Jesus postingJesus: Your Egos Are Like Teenagers. Channelled by John Smallman – October 19, 2013. http://wp.me/p1B8dY-gR

John’s reading of today’s post can be found here:http://johnsmallman2.files.wordpress.com/2013/10/2013-10-19-jesus-audio-blog-for-saturday-october-19th.mp3

All are One, and daily this Truth seeps into the conscious awareness of more and more of humanity, as you all – well the vast majority of you – move closer to your awakening. It is a done deal, you are going to awaken, it is inevitable and nothing can prevent it, so focus on the inner peace and joy that you encounter when you go quietly inwards in relaxation, prayer, or meditation knowing that this is the Divine Will for you all.

Doing just that is extremely healing for you and for all with whom you interact. It is what you came on Earth to do, you can do it beautifully, and that is all that you need to do. Truly it is very simple. Focusing on your anxieties and fears is very counter-productive, although they do often seem extremely important as they demand an enormous amount of your attention; just continue practicing letting go of them except when you are dealing directly in the now moment with issues that cause them.

You were created in joy for joy – that is your natural state – and when you focus on what disturbs you or makes you unhappy you are effectively withdrawing from that state. As you are well aware, worrying changes nothing – it just adds to your stress and unhappiness.

Be loving, of yourselves and of others, whatever the situation and refrain from judgment. If an error has been made, forgive it – correct it if possible – and then move back into your peaceful inner space where you allow the thoughts of worry, judgment, and fear that arise to flow past you like the weather, without engaging with them. It is a bit like going out in the rain, you dress appropriately, take an umbrella, and the rain ceases to be an issue.

Every day you are moving ever closer to the moment for which you have been praying and hoping, and your intent that it happen is bringing it towards you, and because you know that, it makes perfect sense to be joyful, cheerful, and upbeat.

Remind yourselves, when you observe the pain and suffering of others in the outside world, that this will pass. No one is undergoing something that at a deeper level of their being they did not agree to undergo. If possible offer physical assistance or comfort to any in your vicinity who are in need, hold them in your hearts compassionately while lovingly intending for them, and for every other human apparently caught in painful or catastrophic situations, to pass quickly and easily through their suffering, and onwards towards their awakening.

Awakening – as every channeled message is telling you – is your purpose, and not yours alone, but the purpose of every human everywhere on Earth. I cannot stress strongly enough that fact and the Divine Truth of the Oneness of all that exists.

The sense of separateness that you experience as humans is illusory, no matter how real it appears to you, and the more you involve yourselves daily in the mundane activities and thought processes that seem to be so essential for your Earthly well-being, the more difficult it is for you to access your quiet inner space where you are always connected to your Source.

It is from there that you can get a sense of that Oneness, of your connectedness to one another and to your Source that will uplift and inspire you, because that is how you access the field of Divine Love in which you are eternally enveloped, and by which you are embraced.

Taking time out daily to go within and welcome the Divine embrace in which you are enfolded is essential for your health, both physical and spiritual, because doing so brings into your conscious awareness the knowledge that you are spiritual beings whose real nature is Love. And by opening your hearts to accept what is always being offered to you, you will feel that Love.

When you make a point of keeping that knowledge consciously in your awareness as you go about your daily activities and chores it enables you to operate from your true nature in all situations, even when you are under attack, and to respond with love and compassion regardless of any provocations that you experience.

Yes, of course your egos will continue to look for and immediately sense any attacks or provocations, warranted or unwarranted, directed at you, and encourage you to react to them forcefully to establish your boundaries by defending yourselves against them – and they nearly always appear unwarranted, do they not?

But when you are making contact regularly with your true nature through your periods of rest, relaxation, and meditation or prayer, you are constantly intensifying the power of Love that flows through you at all times, by removing any obstructions or restrictions to Its onward flow, increasing your awareness of It, and thus enabling you to respond to any attack or provocation with Love, despite the calls from your egos to go to war!

As humans your egos are always with you, but as you focus more intently and consciously on the Love that is your nature, that is your Life, you become increasingly aware that your egos are not very wise, that they lead you into situations that are not conducive to peace, and you then find it easier to ignore or bypass their “guidance,” and their demands for knee-jerk reactions.

Your egos are like teenagers, always powerfully expressing their rights, their individuality, and demanding instant gratification and satisfaction, or else! That is rather a sweeping statement because obviously not all teenagers behave like that – in fact vast numbers do not – but it is a useful analogy to which most of you can relate, even the teenagers among you, and there are far more of those than you can imagine now that the New Age has arrived.

So once again the message is about Love, which is your eternal and Divine nature, and how to engage with it by bringing It into your conscious awareness so that the engagement becomes constant instead of sporadic, uncertain, or fitful. The point of life is to be fully aware at all times of your true nature, and when you are then that is what you will display and operate from, instead of from the confused and fearful mini-selves that your egos made for you and want you to believe in and spend your time protecting.

It does seem, when in your limited human state of consciousness, that to operate from Love instead of from your egos is to lay yourselves open to untold abuse and betrayal. That you are making yourselves utterly vulnerable, defenseless, weak. But, as you will find, that is not the case!

When you are vulnerable because you are engaging with and operating from and through Love, you are invincible! When you are attacked or betrayed it is your egos that are hurt, that suffer, not the real You, and as your hearts open in Love the true You becomes ever more present, the ego’s importance and influence declines, and what used to hurt or upset you no longer does, or only does so far less forcefully.

You are not your egos, you never have been, and you never will be. They are like auto-pilots, and their purpose is to bring your attention to issues that need physical resolution in the moment – the stove is hot, don’t touch it! This is your turning! The traffic lights are red! – things that can cause your own or someone else’s body harm, and that is all. But what has happened is that because of their efficiency at those tasks you have granted them autonomy over you, you have given your power to them, and they have neither the intelligence nor the wisdom to use it properly.

When you reclaim your power, by consciously taking it back from your egos and their knee-jerk responses, and then intend to live lovingly in every moment you will find peace and contentment such as you have never before experienced in your human lives. You can only be hurt or offended if you choose to be. The true You would never make that choice, and no more does God, because there is only eternal Unconditional Love and acceptance, anything else is unreal.

Attack and provocation are of the illusion, not of Reality, and it is in the illusion, in the pain, suffering, confusion, and betrayal that are almost constant there that the ego has its existence, and so it defends it viciously. Do not be deceived by this insane and almost imperceptible part of yourselves that appears totally real – and in others often seems large, powerful, and threatening to you – and which lives in constant fear while trying to convince you that its fears are real, even overwhelmingly real.

As you move more and more firmly, positively, and, of course, consciously into acceptance of the knowledge that you are pure Love and nothing else, that small terrified part of you, your ego, will be lovingly integrated and subsumed within You, and all fear will dissolve as You once more come to know Yourselves as One with each other and with God.

Your loving brother, Jesus.

Global Frackdown: World Prepares for Today’s Protest Against Fracking



no frackingFrom RT.com - October 19, 2013

http://rt.com/news/global-frackdown-gas-protest-391/

Thousands of people worldwide are expected to join the Global Frackdown protest on October 19. ‘Fracktivists’ from over 20 countries will gather to demand an end to fracking and “dangerous” shale gas drillings.

Numerous events are scheduled to take place mainly across the US and Europe. The global movement will be also joined by activists from Australia, New Zealand, Africa, and Indonesia. So far, a total 26 countries are listed to be taking part in the protest.

“Climate scientists warn that continued extraction and burning of fossil fuels will lead to catastrophic climate change,” the Global Frackdown protest organizers said in press release.

Fracking, or hydraulic fracturing, is the extraction of oil and gas by injecting water to break rock formations deep underground.

Fracking a single well can require between two and nine million gallons of water combined with sand and chemicals. Much of the used water returns to the earth’s surface, but contains radium and bromides – cancer-causing, radioactive substances. The toxic chemicals can then float into lakes and rivers or contaminate the ground.

On Saturday, Fracktivists in all participating countries will call on elected officials to open their eyes to the consequences of fracking, which they say is a risky technique. They will demand action to protect the public.

“It is critical that our elected officials hear the truth from their constituents,” the organizers said.

Police Arrest 40 as Canada Shale Gas Protest Turns Violent

By Julie Gordon, Reuters - October 18, 2013

http://tinyurl.com/m67xbtp

(Reuters) – Police in the eastern Canadian province of New Brunswick arrested about 40 people on Thursday after efforts to dismantle a highway barricade turned violent and protesters against shale gas exploration set several police vehicles on fire.

The incident came in response to a weeks-long protest by activists and local aboriginals, who blocked a road near the town of Rexton to try to slow work by SWN Resources Canada, a subsidiary of Southwestern Energy Co, which is exploring shale gas properties in the area.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) moved in early on Thursday to break up the blockade. They said officers were attacked with Molotov cocktails and at least one shot was fired, but not by them.

Susan Levi-Peters, the former chief of the nearby Elsipogtog aboriginal reserve, said the police had moved in aggressively on unarmed protesters.

“The RCMP is coming in here with their tear gas – they even had dogs on us,” she said. “They were acting like we’re standing there with weapons, while we are standing there, as women, with drums and eagle feathers. This is crazy. This is not Canada.”

Levi-Peters said six police vehicles were burning in the street and the Elsipogtog chief and some of the reserve’s council members had been arrested.

A police spokeswoman was not immediately available to confirm the arrests, but pictures of Elsipogtog chief Aaron Sock and two others being escorted away by police were posted on Twitter.

The RCMP said dozens of people were arrested on various charges, including weapons offences, mischief and refusing to abide by the court injunction.

“The RCMP has worked diligently with all parties involved in hopes for a peaceful resolution,” said Constable Jullie Rogers-Marsh. “Those efforts have not been successful. Tensions were rising and serious criminal acts are being committed.”

Members of the Elsipogtog reserve have long opposed SWN’s efforts to explore for gas in the region. They want a moratorium on shale gas exploration and say the company did not consult them before starting work.

Their efforts have been buoyed by the “Idle no More” movement, a grassroots effort to bring more attention to the poor living conditions on native reserves and to help aboriginal communities gain more control over natural resource projects.

Peruvian Air Force to Set Up Department to Research UFOs



Escudo_de_armas_FAPThanks to Lance.

Peruvian Air Force to Research Anomalous Aerial Phenomena

From Girogio Piacenza, Lima – October 14, 2013

http://exonews.org/peruvian-air-force-research-anomalous-aerial-phenomena/

Friday, October 18th, 2013 the Peruvian Air Force will launch a Department focused on researching the presence of anomalous aerial phenomena.

It will be called “DIFAA” which stands for the (Departamento de Investigación de Fenómenos Aéreos Anómalos or Anomalous Aerial Phenomena Research Department).

This department will be directly assisted by a Civilian Advisory Council which, as far as I know, is a unique arrangement in the world. This council is composed of researchers, scientists and intellectuals and it includes Commander Julio Cesar Chamorro Flores (ret) who a few years earlier (while still on duty) directed the Peruvian Air Force’s UFO research office called OIFAA. During that time I also acted as a civilian advisor.Currently, the Civilian Advisory Council also includes archeologist Manuel Aguirre Morales, research journalist Marco Barraza Camacho; the Director of the Peruvian Institute of astronomy Barthelemy d’Ans; Engineer and cultural events promoter Enrique Álvarez Vita; communications expert Patricia Meseth Petrucelli; philosopher Luis Enrique Alvizuri and I, Giorgio Piacenza Cabrera, sociologist and Exopolitics Institute advisor.

The prevalent attitude I surmise both in the Civilian Advisory Council and at the Peruvian Air Force is one of flexible, open-minded and also objective research and of considering the wide range of aspects which the UFO Phenomenon and the alleged or actual presence of extraterrestrial beings may entail.

There’s also a desire to educate the civilian population on a wide variety of scientific and culturally appropriate subjects through conferences and other outreach events. While we currently don’t operate with a substantial budget, I think that all parties involved display a sufficiently flexible attitude and an interest to develop a more integrative, sui generis and still objective approach to research.

On Friday, October 18th, 2013 the “Dirección Nacional de Intereses Aero Espaciales” (DINAE) of the Peruvian Air Force (under whose jurisdiction the DIFAA operates) will host the inaugural event at DINAE’s headquarters in Miraflores, Lima, Peru and it will be accompanied by a formal explanation, presentation and two brief conferences with a question and answers period. Due to the limited capacity of the venue, the event is for the most part by invitation only.

Archeologist Manuel Aguirre Morales will speak about the Nazca Lines from a more classical scientific perspective and I will speak about the possible presence of extraterrestrials and exopolitics. Distinguished academics, relevant political and military personalities plus the local and international press have been invited.

I believe this is an opportunity to bring exopolitical issues to the fore and to demonstrate that formal institutions can consider anomalous aerial phenomena and some of their possible implications as important, serious subjects worthy of scientific and cultural interest. As is well-known by UFO and exopolitical researchers, many countries in the Latin American region are actively pursuing a similar path to legitimate these issues and overcome the unnecessary stigma attached to reporting about UFOs and the possible or real extraterrestrial presence.

Facebook aids bullied teen

100 Facebook friends show up to defend bullied student -- and he even gets an apology


Halsey Parkerson stands in front of some of the 50 cars that showed up to his anti-bullying rally (KATU)


A high-school bully decided to apologize after 100 Facebook users showed up to rally behind a boy he had accused of having no friends.

South Salem High School Junior Halsey Parkerson got a huge surprise on Friday, when more than 50 cars showed up at his school to help him stand up to a local bully.

KATU reports that on Thursday, Parkerson’s aunt had stopped by his school to have lunch with him. That’s when a bully began taunting Parkerson and saying it didn’t matter because he “didn’t have any friends.”

Parkerson told his aunt that it happened “all the time.” In response, she reached out to an online car club she belongs to on Facebook and asked people to show up to the school for lunch on Friday.

In response, more than 50 cars showed up, carrying at least 100 people. And KATU's

"It's just unbelievable," Parkerson told KATU. "I now know whenever I get bullied I'll raise my head up and say, 'Sorry, I have too many friends to think I'm being bullied.'"

And the story just gets better from there. When Parkerson and his new friends approached the unnamed bully, he offered Parkerson a high-five and an apology.

“I apologize,” the student, whose identity is being withheld, told Parkerson. “I apologize and I take it back.”

When the mass of cars first showed up at South Salem High School on Friday, Principal David Phelps was immediately alerted of the unusual incident. However, once he learned why all of the visitors had showed up, he decided to let the event continue.

A study from the National Center for Education Statistics estimates that a third of all students have experienced bullying in some form. An even as awareness over school bullying has risen in recent years, the news continues to see tragic stories of children and teens who have been bullied by classmates and peers. CNN reported that a day after an Illinois high school showed students a video on bullying a student committed suicide. When his Brad Lewis found his 15-year-old son's suicide note, he said his son said bullying had pushed him over the edge.

Since Friday, Parkerson said he has received an outpouring of support. On his Facebook page, he wrote:

“Thanks to everyone who was there with me and my family thanks also to the ones who could not make it by all you making a difference,” he wrote. “I truly mean it I’m tearing up thanks guys for standing up with me and helping me make a difference!!”

Parkerson said that while he’s grateful for the incredible show up support, he realizes it was not about him specifically. Rather, it was a public display meant to encourage anyone who is being bullied to seek out support.

"If you're being bullied, stand up and express yourself," Parkerson said. "This is one glorious day."




When Halsey Parkerson is accused of having no friends, 100 new "friends" show up at his school to defend him.
