To me, this has got to be, by far, the Best writing in this whole thread. I keep re-reading and re-reading, and each time, come away with new insight. So, when Deb and I talked tonight, we had a great discussion about this latest post. As so often happens between us, when one of us shares an insight, it sparks another deeper insight in the other! And so, levels of meaning keep expanding and expanding. And we both want to share them with you…so here goes…

In the scope of multiple occurrences
“scope of multiple occurrences” - we perceive this on 3 different levels…
1-the planetary alignment 12/21/12
2-the events on our planet from wars to weather to corruption to compassion etc
3-our inner work to release what no longer serves our highest good
Within the Universe at this point
With many energies touching one another
all of these energies touching each of us in some way
There are semblances of types that are
“semblances of types” – a form or appearance that is deliberately misleading
ah, how often have we heard “nothing is as it appears” !

occurring.....

This issue seems not to come too often
We may be incorrect on this, but is the alignment every 26,000 years?
Yep, not too often! LOL
In this rotation of energies
Rotation of the energies – all the heavenly bodies spiraling thru the Cosmos
So, something of great import
Is purposed to occur

shortly.....
The Mayan predicted alignment for 2012?

There is likened to be a gathering of energies
That will put forth entities that encompass
“entities” – possible UFO disclosure?
A method that has gone before but will in the
‘method that has gone before” – much coming to light now about our
true origins (star) and previous visitations in ancient advanced civilizations
who left signs of their presence around the planet (pyramids, hieroglyphics,
writings, symbols, etc), so, visitation will be the same but not the same
Near future show itself under warded yet
“under warded” – meaning under protection, shielded from danger or harm

unfettered.....
(yet "unfettered", free to accomplish its purpose)
makes perfect sense in the scope of the dynamics occuring
in the bigger picture (2012 Ascension concepts)
It will come at a time of expecting with a show
many of us have a preconceived expectation of what will occur
Of the unexpected in a maze of events
That have to be noted, yes, but give less
Than what has been expected

unwarranted....
"unwarranted" (unexplainable) maze of events

And then as suddenly as all are disappointed
disappointing (at first),
Then comes a second breath that will take
2nd breath – can be either us going within (meditation), or another occurence
Forward that which has been disposed
that will take forward– magically giving birth to
that which has been “disposed” – two meanings here, both can
be appropriate depending on where we are at in awareness:
1-receptive and/or prepared
2-disregard or throw away
And now the presence owns itself with no definition
(presence owns itself) can be either the individual “we” take ownership without limits (no definition), or again another occurence

Deafening quiet....

With the spark of creation of the moment comes
An appealing warmth that chooses to embrace
The points of heaven that have been left abandoned
(points of heaven abandoned) - what we have 'forgotten'
And so, now there comes a new expression of that
creating a new expression of our Divine Selves in the Cosmos
here on Earth...the physical Light Being
Which owns itself in the Cosmos....

It is time to listen to this new voice that is heralded
Pinioned between points of residence and long occurenced
“pinioned” – bound
“between points of residence” – not only our current physical focus, but
our multi-dimensional selves
“long occuranced” - (all time as One)
Of which has never before been presented
A New Awakening coming from the distance

To embrace ITSELF...
(recognizing and acknowledging the I AM That I AM) 2012’s Ascension within!

Love, Deb

Am sure buzzed with this writing...can you tell? hahaha

Journey WITHIN The All That Is (Part 1)
by Peg 6-23-04

All appears silent …

then Suddenly – Awareness!! …

that ----- I AM !

I Am Aware of My Beingness

I sense a floatingness –
----A suspension within Allness

I open my proverbial “eyes”
----Smiling in discovery, the vastness within Me – that lies

A surreal feeling, almost dreamy

I breathe - in and out - gentle and slow,
I pulsate to the rhythm of the flow…

----In sync with the grand symphony –
----The sounds of silence – music of a different kind, to me

So much - sooo much - potential within this playground
----In joy, I burst myself out, by intense directive of thought
----And through a myriad of “ME’s” – I found
----The power and purpose – long sought

The expansive omnipotence of what Creation is

And have come to know – I AM … All That Is !

***

Journey WITHIN The All That Is (Part 2)
by Peg 7-19-11

(I had a dream a couple of weeks ago, and though I can’t recall the specific details of it, I awoke with the thought, or should I say question, what if we all represent a ‘memory’ in the Mind of “God” or All That Is? That root connection of One, uniquely expressed by the many, has always fascinated me. I have long felt that Source Creator experiences Itself through our individual experiences, and learns and grows along with us.)

Breathing in – deep and full
Breathing out – gentle and slow

Floating softly within the rhythmic wave of My Being
Moving with the graceful pattern of the Universal Symphony

I relax into the Concurrent memories of the myriads of “Me”
---Patiently awaiting the awakening of each
---To the sentient awareness that “we” are more than what appears to be

Existing far beyond just single physical points of expressions
Simultaneously playing in a vast array of realities, paradigms, and dimensions

For just a moment, My senses focus on the 3D world
And I marvel at how its theme of polarity makes for such perfect and divine partners

With each choice, a fresh canvas to create
---Each painting - a living work of art - continuously changing
---Against a backdrop of light and dark - in mirrored silhouette

A challenging playground, fueled by the imagination of master thinkers
---Whose thoughts and ideas have the potential to summon
---The best - or not - each chooses to be

Yet its ultimate purpose, to grow and evolve, no matter the choice
---Calls us to the ballroom floor…

And so, between the Light and Dark of the floodlights…

I gently smile and say…
Shall we dance?

Love...Peg

Bringing together the one word lines....

Occuring shortly, unfettered, unwarranted - deafening quiet - "That" which owns itself in the Cosmos to embrace ITSELF.

Suddenly, "THAT" becomes the definitive and the determiner. Hmmm, anybody have any thoughts of THAT?

Love, Deb

When Venus crosses the Sun
And interjects her energies into
The Heart of the Solar King
It is a time for a whole new
Awakening of the presence

Within...

For so long within this realm
A patriarchal principle has reined
And given the results of that reining
Now a new energy has been set forth
In an attempt to change that force to

Reception...

As the Venus crosses the face of the Sun
She wipes away all that was begun
And inserts a new way of being
That allows for the freeing
Of limitations that have deterred

New Visions...

New ways of being, unlimited
No longer are there any restraints
All is become to the fullness
Of the majesty of the being
Of One assisting Itself

To Emerge...

And in that, hands reach out
To assist one another across the land
And each one divining for themselves
Through the approach to another
In assistance in a way that is needed

In Giving...

As has been proclaimed before
And now repeated here again
The only thing we can take with us
Is what we have given
That is the substance

Within....

Love, Deb

Deb, BE and Boglivia

What wonderful writing. It seems to me to be about the sacred feminine that is now coming into the world, the gentle guiding hand, the principle of suggestion instead of coercion. Part of the beautiful writing of our beautiful new world....
Love, C.

Oh WOW, C., I witnessed this in motion today at my son's nursing/rehab facility. I came in and my son was sitting on the patio with others and I joined them. Now, one has to consider that among the "group" present, there were totally cognitive individuals as well as those who are experiencing what is traditionally called dimentia states. So, as we all were sitting there sharing, it was like we encompassed all who were there without negating anyone's current experience of the moment. As I suggested to Sean, there are some there who are living in their own dimension, which is just as real to them as our dimension is real to us. So, there tends to be a respect in that regard. What may be delusional to us, is another's current experience. So, that is what all of us at the table were respecting without any discussion. It was like a given. We respect this man's space in the way that he chooses to express whether it seems delusional to us or not. For him, it is his dimensional expression of the moment. WOW, and there never was a word said among us all, we all just did it automatically. Isn't that amazing?
Whew....

And you know what he ended up saying? He said, "Sean, I am so proud of you how you have come through this without any complaining at all, you just smile and carry on like nothing ever happened."

And of course, I observe all of this beautiful tender amongst these individuals who have been drawn together in this place and I am continually amazed at the caring that goes on amongst them and Sean and the little bit that I contribute. It is always truly beautiful, to say the least.

My son gave me the best compliment today as I sat and talked with the all of them on the patio. He said:

I saw your old spark again today, haven't had a chance to see you in a round table discuss in quite a while. You make everyone laugh
and you set the tone for conversation. They got a kick out of you today, I did too.

That made me feel so good. Anyway, I guess I'm done spouting. We are doing good here, thanks to all of you and your continued prayers and intentions.

Love you, Deb

I now have tangled quotes
Sitting beneath my tongue
Harboring there, for a chance
To express that which so deeply
Furnishes me with a passion to be.

And now, I so listlessly present
Yet another portion of myself
That seems to be in need to
Venture forth in a means of timeliness.
Savoring every moment, holding still.

I shake my head in an attempt
To draw myself into the margin
Of gathering of the thoughts that
Wish to present themselves
On this day of rendering.

Shaking my head still, I step up to the plate
And center myself in a way for presentation
That will ultimately give note to the degree
Of matter/manner that wishes to be expressed
So, here I am exposed expressing....

There are many continuities that are pressing forward
At this time, many coming forward to say their peace
And many others, listening and wondering from whence
They stand and where forward they should come.
Now is the time of reckoning for all it seems.

Choices, choices, now is the time for choices to be made
And for each to realize the consequences of each choice
That is made. Yes, a time of reckoning, surrender and
A deliverance of what the soul has made to be complete
Within that which is to be offered for the sustenance.

As one gives, so is one given and obtained and received
So is all comprehended, acknowledged and accepted
In the conception of the idea of one created for the benefit
Of all experiencing this moment with an open mind of conception
And fruition coming to be. No longer statutes addressed or expected.
Only true virtue of the moment received.

Now, what do we derive from this movement?
Ah, it is all a shaking away from that which no longer serves us
And a deliverance it seems to carry on in the way that feels
Total abundance wrapping itself around in accordance
With that which was equated to the intention set forth.

And now here we sit in abundance....

Love, Deb

It is amazing, isn’t it, to realize and experience that as we become more connected within ourselves, we can witness not only the affect of our choices for us, but their effect on others around us. The connection between us all, vibrationally, is profound…and as we continue to recognize this, our intentional choices for us provide us an opportunity to serve all in some way. More and more at this time, whatever we consciously choose for ourselves, rapidly teaches us something. The choice is, do we want to learn in a loving joyous way, or a harsh and difficult way. As you say, there are consequences to all we choose, both for us and those around us. Sounds crazy, but there it is!

I like your phrase “tangled quotes sitting beneath your tongue”. It really does feel like that sometimes…”knowing” what you want to say, and wanting to find the pertinent words in how to say it!

Another excellent rendering….thanks….

Love...Peg
