2008: Stepping Into The Role Of Magician
by Frank Hoogerbeets ................................
January 10, 2008
Each year we find predictions and statements about the qualities of the particular energies being manifested. And today we are much more aware of a number’s quality than ten or twenty years ago, even though there are still many who do not believe in it. This growing awareness goes hand in hand with the continuous raising of frequencies on our planet; we become more and more sensible to the subtle energies around us and what influence they have on our being in the physical. That’s why we find so many articles, lectures and discussions at the beginning of a new year.
2008, as we read and probably feel is a 1-vibration, as 2+0+0+8=10 and 1+0=1. So we find many descriptions stating the qualities of number 1 like “new beginning”, “the creation of a new world”, “great changes”, etc.. Indeed, these words reflect some of the qualities of number 1, however, WE are here on this planet to DO something with these energies, in other words, if we WANT a new world, we HAVE TO step into the role of Magician and let the energies flow through us so we can direct them and manifest them into the forms we envision. There is NO ONE who will do this job for us! For many of us this is a new concept, since for so long we have been used to observe and let our leaders take decisions for us. For so long we have given away our responsibilities as co-creators, our creative powers, expecting others to do the job for us. If we were to keep that passive attitude, the new world and promised golden age we envision would NOT arrive!
So please let us DO and CREATE instead of wait for heaven on earth to arrive. We are co-creators, we can manifest whatever we want, whatever we envision in our dreams, but we MUST be decisive as the times of “sitting and thinking: I’ll have to see” are over. If you believe and feel that you are a creator in your own image you will be able to act accordingly, but only then, for not believing will immediately block the flow of creative energy. Also, in order to become a magician and use the flow of creative energy flowing through you, you HAVE TO BE GROUNDED! And I say and repeat this to all lightworkers around the world: YOU HAVE TO BE GROUNDED for without the connection with Mother Earth the energy will not flow! If you find it difficult to be grounded, you might want to do dancing rituals like Indians, Negro’s and other cultures around the world (used to) do, for these “primitive” people knew and still know very well how important it is to be connected with Mother Earth in order to be a co-creator in God’s Universe.
Creator Source holds an infinite reservoir of creative energy, ready for us to receive and use to create a new reality, and the energies being manifested this year are more creative and encourage us as never before to reclaim our divine heritage and become co-creators in the Cosmic Plan once more as it was intended from the beginning. We receive all the power and help from Light Beings from different realities and they support us in any way they can, but we must be READY AND WILLING TO RECEIVE this power to empower ourselves and allow these creative energies to flow through our hands and use them as the magician we once were and will be again IF WE SO CHOOSE, for everything we do this year is a matter of conscious choosing, whether or not we allow magic do its work, and take action if we feel the nudge to do so.....> Cont'd
