 Hello, welcome back to Art of Awakening. 2020 was supposed to be this year of great vision, but it's really turned into kind of a shit show, right? Distractions right and left. And even as I'm recording this video, there's dogs yapping in the neighbor's dogs. There is a circular saw or something going in the background. There is distractions around us, but it's not too late to take back that 2020 vision. And this indeed is what I believe. Lightworkers are really being called to do right now is to see past those distractions and really step forward as the divine creators we were meant to be. So my name is Ona. If you haven't met me before, please join me. We're going to discuss this in this video as well as I want to introduce to you one of the new little pets that we got. And also I have an upcoming event that I want to talk about. OK, so we are at this huge, huge tipping point, as we all know in humanity, where we're shifting from this old kind of matrix, 3D matrix mentality into a new reality. And it's actually a process that involves a lot, a lot of chaos. And we're all feeling it right now. So I just want to speak to that because we're actually more powerful than most of us believe than any of us really knows. And so this is really the time to step forward and to start stepping into our role as creators, as creator beings, human beings. I mean, I work a lot with spirit animals. Every spirit animal has their superpower. One of the immense, incredible superpowers of the human being is the creator, right? We are divine creators. We're meant to be that. And so this is really just a, it's a test, right? A test of our integrity as human beings, right? As a human species to step into that creator role in a way that's beautiful and harmonious and aligned with nature, OK? So right now, you've probably been feeling we've got these two energies going on. We've got this ascending spiral, right? The whole ascension thing and moving the planet up into this kind of 5D more flow sort of existence, one that's a lot more aligned where miracles do happen, right? And they really do. But we're also coming out of this descending spiral of more and more attention, anxiety, destruction, just all the stuff that has plagued humanity for thousands and thousands of years. So you're going to feel that there are certain aspects of being on Earth right now that are very life enhancing and within yourself as well. And there are certain things that are life degrading, OK? And so 2020 is this pivotal, pivotal year, OK? And we're, you know, everybody's going into 2020. We're all talking about, oh, the year of vision, right? All this stuff happened. And it's really taken our vision off of where we want to be and into disaster scenarios, into chaos, into conflict, OK? And there's a reason for that is because the forces that are wanting to take us down aren't going to go without a fight. And one of their biggest ways to fight is to distract us from our focus on the beautiful things that we want to create. Because what you focus on, that is what you will create, OK? And we're going to be creating all the time. We can't help it. We're creator beings, right? And so if they can get our focus onto something that is on that descending spiral, it's going to pull our energy down into that spiral. And guess what? That's what we're going to be creating, OK? And so the big, big challenge right now as light workers, as human beings, is to maintain that focus on a better world, OK? That's what we're here for, is to create this better world. And we're going to see this better world rising out of the ashes, OK? So there's going to be stuff falling down, dissolving all around us, OK? I think Phoenix, OK? Phoenix is the spirit animal of this age, right? It embodies this whole dynamic, right? And so we want to be the Phoenix part and not the ashes part, OK? We're part of this new Phoenix coming up, but it is one thing, right? So within each of us, we've got aspects of the old that are crumbling, that are starting disintegrating, coming apart of the seams, and that we've got aspects of the new that are coming together and rising up in strength. And that's why, depending on what part of your journey you're at, it may feel like everything is falling apart. So message number one is to embrace it. Just embrace everything that's happening, OK? And these messages may sound contradictory, but they're really not if you breathe into it, OK? So first of all, to embrace the chaos. It is what it is, and it's happening for a reason. It's happening because it's clearing the old matrix, the old mind sets, the old energetic patterning is being dissolved, OK? So that's number one. The more we can just relax and realize that this is happening for a reason, it's happening ultimately to support life on Earth here, because these things have to go, right? And there may be casualties along with it, OK? And that's part of the whole thing, right? So we need to just send blessings all around and just accept that there's going to be stuff that falls apart. And just know that for each and every individual, OK, we're all here as souls at this time right now to assist in this great awakening in whatever way. Whether you're awoken or not, we're all here as souls right now for this reason. And to accept that for every human experience is part of this whole big unfolding, big picture, OK? So while we do want to have compassion for everything that's going on around us, it's very important also that we don't let our sympathy pull us back down into trains of thought and into energetic patterns that are holding us down. Because when we're holding ourselves down, or when we're caught up in these patterns, right, then it's really, really hard for us to anchor in that light energy and the ascending energy that we're here to do, OK? So remember to mistake-passionate, but don't allow sympathy to pull you off track, right? It's so easy for empathic to start feeling for somebody who is probably way maybe caught up in all this stuff, right? Send them blessings, but hold yourself, right? You may need to do some boundary work, right? We all do right now. It's so important for all of us to work with that solar plexus and to hold our strong, strong, strong boundaries, right? We're here. At least I am. I hope that you will join me in this. We're here to uphold a higher resonance, OK? And that means that we need to step into and accept and receive the joy and the beauty that is in the world. Because as we start to focus on those things and to focus on this higher potential, that is what we start to create, OK? So right now, I'm feeling it's really time. And we're still in this year of 2020. It's not too late to take back that 2020 vision, right? And we can start directing our focus in ways, you know, in directions that are enhancing of life, OK? And so this is really, really an exercise in free will, OK? Free will is at the crux of all of this. What are you going to focus on? You know, are you going to focus where you're going to keep your focus aligned on the descending spiral, OK? The news, the chaos that may be happening and so forth. Or without, you know, without being naive, right? We want to be aware of what's going on around us. We can use our peripheral vision to be aware. But where are you going to actually focus on, right? Are you going to focus on this ascending energy? Are you going to focus on, you know, the beauty that you know is here for us, right, on the love, on the joy, right? Because there is joy. Even in the darkest night, there are stars, right? And even if there aren't stars, we can imagine the stars, right, because we know that they are there, even if there's clouds, OK? And so holding that focus is not only going to help us through it, but it's actually helping to rebirth and to shape the new reality that we want to bring in. And remember that every single human being on this planet, whatever they're focusing on, that's where they're feeding the energy to. And your focus is either going to be on something that's going to feed the upward spiral or feed the downward spiral, OK? So this is a call right now to really be aware of what you're focusing on. And so there's a word that has come into my consciousness and I'm being asked to relate. And it's called blessing wish, right? And so what is a blessing wish? And what I'm given to understand is that it's think of it as an intention. But rather than more an intention often is kind of more head oriented, right? Blessing wish comes from the heart. And this is something that there's an important distinction there, OK? Because as much of this descending spiral has originated from wanting to use the head and the mind to fix problems rather than a heart based approach. The head is really great at fixing problems. It's really great at fixing short term problems, right? But the long term, the sustainable solutions, they're going to be felt more from the heart because ultimately they come from source, right? So to allow the heart to, you know, if we get in the heart it helps to align our mind to where we can receive from source, OK? So as we start setting our intentions, my encouragement is to rather than thinking of it as an intention, think of it as a blessing wish, OK? So what's a blessing wish? It's your wish for something better and your blessing for that to be manifested, OK? So a blessing, what does a blessing do? It calls on the divine to bless because, you know, the divine blesses through us, OK? We set their attention for the blessing, but we're calling for the divine to actually do it, OK? So with this idea of blessing wish, how do we use this? So what is a blessing wish? It's like an intention from the heart, but it's for something greater than your own good, OK? So the story that comes to mind, if you're familiar with Buckminster Fuller, if you're not look him up because he was an amazing human being. But Buckminster Fuller, at one point when he was a young man he had failed in business, he had failed in several ways. He was about to actually just jump off a bridge, right? He didn't end it all, but he didn't. And what he did was he decided instead to devote his life to the betterment of humanity, OK? And he ended up inventing, he was an incredible inventor, and he ended up just devoting his gifts and talents to the betterment of humanity. And he was really, really a visionary. And a lot of his ideas are just starting to kind of be adapted or to show up as like he was really ahead of his time. But he created some amazing things. And his life was so inspiring, right? Because as soon as he made that little shift, things started happening in his life, right? He started getting opportunities. And it was really more about what could he do to serve humanity. And so if we can each create, and that was his blessing wish, you know, the betterment of humanity. Personally, my blessing wish, I'm seeing a healed earth, OK? A healed planet earth, you know, with everything on it, you know, with the earth itself enhancing life and humanity itself aligned with that, right? And so that's something that I've taken and I've placed it in my third eye, OK? And it helps me to align everything that I do. If I can align that through that vision of a healed earth, it helps me to stay personally in alignment, OK? And what seems to happen, no, it's always a journey, right? I'm not always in alignment. But what I've noticed is as those times, those days, those weeks, whatever, that I'm more in alignment, things just are starting to happen in miraculous ways. And that can happen for all of us, OK? This is the miracle zone. And I think the blessing wish is a very, very beautiful tool that we can all use to help to stay aligned and to anchor that vision of a beautiful earth. So I'm just going to ask you, what is your blessing wish? You want to consider spending a little time this week and finding what is your blessing wish? You want to get into the heart first, breathe in and out of the heart and really feel into the heart. And you will be given the answer. If for you, it may be the betterment of all humanity. It may be a healed earth. It might be something else. It may be that all children are loved, right? All children all over the world are loved or all children have enough to eat. It may be that there is harmony between all the races of humanity, OK? It could be that every woman on the world is loved and cherished and treated with respect. Perhaps every man is loved and cherished and treated with respect, right? Whatever it is for you, one suggestion is to make it a positive, right? So for instance, that all children are loved and healthy instead of to end child trafficking. Now, to end child trafficking is a great goal. But it's, again, it's focusing on that negative phenomenon that's happening, right? And so if we can take our focus completely off the negative, again, without being unaware of it, we want to keep that peripheral vision of awareness. But if we can keep our focus on the positive, so rather than, OK, let's end child trafficking, which again is a great goal. But as a blessing wish focus, if we can focus on healthy cherished children, OK, that's focusing on the positive, OK? So consider this week of finding your blessing wish because it's a life-changing thing, life-changing thing to do and it can be life-changing not just for yourself, but the whole world as well, OK? So thank you for joining me at just a moment here and I'm gonna introduce you to our new critters. So this is Apollo and he is a bull snake. He's a native North American snake, non-venomous. And I'm just gonna show you the one we've got a couple more. This is the male, got a couple of females. And we also have some hog note snakes that we just got in. And my partner actually used to breed snakes and my partner actually used to raise snakes and looks like we're starting on that adventure again. And so I just, it's very interesting actually to me to have these animals here in the home because a snake really embodies a lot of these energies that are going on right now in both ways, right? They, I've done a snake video, so I'm gonna link that, but isn't he pretty? He's just this beautiful kind of, he's an albino, so he's got this very light colored. And so handling a snake is interesting because they talk about reptilian energies and they've definitely got that, they've got feeding reflexes, some of them can be kind of aggressive or they can bite out of fear as well. But they've also got incredible healing capabilities snakes do. So they heal very, very quickly and they're just incredibly, incredibly fascinating creatures. They really do embody that life force, that Kundalini energy right in that animal right there. And so what he's kind of reminding is that each of us has within it the life force and with the life force, each of us has aggression within us and the capability for it. We each have the capability for reacting out of fear, right? Or striking when our needs aren't met, right? We've all got that. And so the call right now is first of all, when I was talking about acceptance, it's like you've got to be accepting and aware of this, to handle an animal, any animal. But a snake, it means that you always have to be aware of kind of what's going on with it, okay? You're not gonna domesticate an animal like this, right? It's always got a little bit of wildness in it. So do we, okay? So each of us and that's true. And when that happens in all of humanity, right? When you take seven billion of us and compound it, okay? It's just that energy that is reverberating around the world through all of us, right? All together. And so the greatest work we can do right now is to learn, kind of to control our reactions, right? This little buddy doesn't, he's never gonna learn to control his reactions. He's a snake, right? But we can learn to control our reactions. We're not gonna learn to control necessarily the reactions of the snake within, right? We each have a little snake within us. And that snake is both aligned with the life force energy and it is a potential to create destruction, right? And so the more we can calm ourselves and to call on the higher power to move through us and actually be able to handle the snake within us gently, compassionately, and yet not allowing it to get out of hand, right? Okay, so I also told you I have an event coming up and I would be delighted if you join me for that. It's a visionary art workshop and what we'll be doing, I'll do a video on that soon, but we're just gonna get together. I'm gonna do a guided meditation and help to hold the space for you to explore through art, the inner mind that comes through. And I think it's gonna be really fun. It'll be relaxing and it'll be a way to really start to access some of the inner guidance in just a different way than a lot of people do. And even if you are adept at visionary art, please join because it'll be just a different energy pulling into it. And I'm really, really excited. I've got a few people signed up already. I would love for you to join. It will be online on Zoom on Thursday, October 1st at 7 p.m. Eastern time and it is by donation. So if you are free at that time, please do join us.
