There is never a time when you are without Me,
beloved one,
For I am in you, as near to you as your own breath.
All that you do is known to Me.
All that you feel is known to Me.
I Am the consciousness that holds all,
and in holding all I hold you as well.

To feel God’s presence in each and every moment –
this is an anchorpoint that can hold one
through everything,
through the pain in one’s heart and the pain
in the world.

The Rose And The Thorn
by Julie


The history of man's spiritual evolution can be depicted as a relationship of rose and thorn, traversing a line between sweetness, beauty, and love, and the pangs of hardship and unexpected loss and pain that always seem to counterbalance the sweet fragrance of the rose.

Never understanding why the thorns of life had to accompany life's beauty, mankind has always had to find ways of dealing with its heavy burden of suffering, both individually and collectively, trying always to focus on the smell of the roses and to minimize the sharp stabbing intrusion of that which was unwanted or unexpected.

Had we but known that the thorns were necessary in order for the roses to exist at all, it may not have made a difference. For the human heart, though it may justify suffering on the level of principle or purpose, nevertheless seeks always for an end to suffering, and a day in which only flowers will grace the vistas of what lies before us. For this is the nature of what it means to be human to seek love and peace and yet to have to abide with the sharp edges of life that are often piercing in their effects.

The thorns of life have been necessary because of the degree of separation of human consciousness from the truth of its own being and from the truth of the Divine nature of all of life a gift from the one Creator of all Had there not been such a separation in awareness, it would not have required the sudden stabbing pain of reality to wake one up to something. For this has always been the service of pain that it awakens within consciousness something that has been asleep, and yet that has been necessary for the further development of wholeness of the self. It does not come into being gratuitously, but rather as a force for healing, to bring the self back to the path of truth and growth and toward the light of wholeness.

Even though the meaning of pain may not be conscious and even though in many instances it seems unjustified, punitive, cruel, haphazard, indifferent, or meaningless, nevertheless, its purpose in manifesting the thorns of life has been to create movement sometimes gentle, sometimes sharp into a different way of looking at things.

Imagine, now, a world in which roses exist without thorns. This is the world of the future. A world in which spiritual growth and the movement toward wholeness no longer needs the kind of prodding that has existed before a world in which the separation of consciousness from the light of sacred reality no longer requires the vast leap over mistaken ideas and notions of reality which create a chasm to be bridged in order to institute a path of return. Under these circumstances, the thorns would no longer be necessary. Painful prodding would no longer be necessary, for the path of growth could be held in light and the corrections that might be needed would be small corrections, ones that could be instituted gently and progressively without a sharp blow to one's awareness.

This is what lies before us in the unfolding evolution of the earth's story and of the story of her inhabitants as we move into the next level of spiritual understanding and evolution. This next level has been called many things, but by whatever name one conceives of it, it is a place and time in which roses shall bloom without the necessity for thorns, and in which the human soul shall experience its own beauty and fragrance without the cloud of self-doubt or mistaken perception that has existed thus far.

Before this time comes, there shall still be thorns that pierce the heart and soul thorns that result from mankind's indifference to man, thorns of mankind's indifference to the sacred life of the earth, thorns that come from cruelty and disdain, from pettiness and greed, from fear and from the desire to seek advantage over others. These are the thorns that human beings create through their own misguided actions, and before they leave the landscape of human consciousness entirely, they will make their presence known.

But in the end, those aberrations of consciousness which lessen the humanity of one to another, which lessen the caring of the human heart of one to another, will progressively disappear. And in its place, will be the awareness of oneness that allows all to answer the question: "Am I my brother's keeper?", with a full and unequivocal "yes."


Blessed be this time of transition and of the earth's flowering into a new day.

The Open Path


The journey of each soul is unique and open.
Each life offers a bridge to awakening through the choices that arise which naturally unfold the potential that lies within.

Throw wide your arms to life, for God exists
within all things.
Even the painful circumstances of life
bring treasures of healing.

" How to Ask for Inner Guidance"
by Julie


"The Divine lives within you and therefore when in doubt you have a place to turn to that can show you the way, that can represent the path of light and truth to you, that can lead you home. Call upon it, ask for it. Ask to be shown how to live.

In each moment this asking to be shown the way can become the spiritual practice that embraces all decisions, all choices, and all actions that you take. It is the way of leading a life that joins the human and the Divine within you and that allows your deepest being to guide you home."

THE PRACTICE OF ALIGNMENT
with Julie


The Practice of Alignment is a way of bringing the higher frequencies of light into body and consciousness for purposes of healing, and also in order to more fully become a vessel of light. This capacity that each human being has, allows each one to become an instrument for the healing and transformation of the self and of the Earth.

This practice is also useful in developing and maintaining a sacred consciousness on a daily basis, anchoring this awareness
not only in the thoughts one thinks, but in the body itself.

Your body is meant to help you learn what you
came here to learn about life.

You may wish you had a different body, but it is
precisely this body that will bring you closest to the
truths that you seek.

The pain you have endured through others
has been part of a path of healing.
Now, this path can be replaced by a new way
of learning as life becomes more sacred.

Your body is a creation of your soul, designed
before you were born.
Whether it works perfectly or has many limitations,
it is exactly what is needed to accomplish
your highest goals in life.

“The arrival of a new level of spiritual awareness can be as gentle as a slight breeze, in fact, almost beneath the level of our noticing. It can come as a perception of what is not, rather than what is.

For example, a pain in the heart that has been there for a long time can suddenly feel like it is off in the distance. Or a sense of anxiety that has traveled with us for a long time can suddenly be missing. The absence of what has been can be a signal, as much as anything else, that a new energy has entered the picture that is creating changed inner conditions, and this can be true even though its source is unknown and even though nothing special may have happened to bring it about.

Similarly, there may be subtle, unexplainable feelings of well-being - a noticeable absence of irritability concerning things that would have been distressing to us just a short while ago. Or, the presence of humor over things that previously did not at all seem funny. Or moments of unexplainable joy that have no external basis. These things, too, can signal the presence of a new vibration having entered the heart.

No one characteristic describes what an experience of spiritual reality is like since it is different for each person. Yet what happens, optimally, in each case, is a validation of the experience so that it can receive a place within our awareness that is hospitable, rather than being treated like an intruder or as a stranger who has come to the wrong house.

Behind the subtle movements of energy that can produce the effects which alter and transform us inside is God's light and love. The power of this love is such that it can penetrate even the most difficult and entrenched systems of belief or habit, and, when invited into an open heart, can create softness where there was only hardness before.”
