A Grand Symphony
Today, we are encouraged to step back and see that we are part of something bigger than we ever imagined, and we are invited to let go of the illusion of separation.
Indeed, it is the illusion of separation that is the root of all distortion. In fact, this particular illusion could be considered “the root of all evil.” Because it is from the illusion of separation that fear arises.
As we have said before, while there is a spectrum between them, in essence, there are only two emotions - love and fear. When we experience the illusion of separation, we feel alone, anxious, forgotten, unworthy, terrified, and all manner of variations. This illusion leads to distorted beliefs and actions that snowball into all kinds of behavior, including manipulation, control, and the desire for power and power over. This may become self-reinforcing.
We often struggle with our identity and trying to figure out how we fit in the world. Separation and “disconnection” aggravates this challenge, leaving us in a state of survival and limitation. We create obstacles without even knowing it. And, we create even more separation from self and other without realizing it.
Notably, the illusion of separation is intended to allow us to embrace and experience being divine creators and to exercise our free will as we do so. Combined with duality that we experience here on earth, this gives us the opportunity to integrate polarity and become the divine creator from a place of love.
However, to truly participate in this as an active creator, we must first go inside and find ourselves and, as part of that quest, discover that we are part of Source energy. As part of Source energy, we are interconnected with all things. When we have a felt-sense of this interconnection, we are also able to sense and feel that we are love and that we are loved.
Separation falls away and the illusion evaporates.
As we practice this and experience that we are part of the consciousness that unifies all, we begin to drop bias, judgment, and division. We perceive more of the whole and the consequences of perpetuating separation. We begin to use our five senses to navigate the physical world in a different way and, additionally, to embrace and develop our intuition - our sixth sense - that allows us to navigate what is currently invisible - the realms of energy and dimensionality.
In this process, we realize that we are each unique and play a special role in the evolution of consciousness and life on this planet. We often do not recognize that all that we do has an effect upon the whole in ways in which we cannot even fathom. Taking the time to connect and go within our hearts, we begin to see how the notes we each contribute all come together in a harmonic symphony. And, we begin to see how one can contribute to the whole and we can be of service as we express our unique gifts and skills. We also then become more willing to learn from another and to share our experiences as all parts come together to make the “sound” come alive.
Take the time to meditate with this card today. Are you aware of your relationship to the illusion of separation? Where is it triggering or active in your life? How do you experience fear and what is your relationship with fear?
Are you seeing connection with others? If it is challenging to feel greater unity or oneness, take time in nature and watch the beautiful dance that is choreographed effortlessly before you. Do you see the flowers, bees, birds, insects, trees, grass, animals, etc., all participating in this harmonic rhythm?
Are you willing and prepared to be part of something bigger than yourself? What is holding you back?
Allow yourself to drop into your heart space. Connect with Gaia. Quiet the mind and listen for Gaia’s heartbeat. Do you hear it? What else do you hear? Do you hear the symphony we are all creating? What does it sound like? Ask Gaia to share these songs with you.
You may also wish to take the time to connect with the Angelic Realm as you do this last portion of the meditation and ask to hear the songs of the Angels that it may open your heart and your perceptions so that you may see, hear, feel, and know the interconnectedness of all things as the Angels experience it. They are happy to bless you with their powerful song and their love.
