as we shift – poised at the edge of history
by Sophia Love, published on November 7, 2016
It’s Election Eve in the USA. My friends from several other countries have said to “expect a disruption of power”. I would rephrase that to “expect a disruption in perceived power.” The power is us. I’d add “embrace the emergence of real power.”
You see, we are poised, right now, on the edge and looking down at the focal point of what a major portion of our species is focused on. This is unprecedented.
The Rally in Chicago last Friday for the Cubs (celebrating their World Series Victory after 108 years) drew 5 million people. It is being reported as the 7th largest gathering in human history. And that’s not counting those watching from their homes and phones. That was just a baseball game; this election will have global repercussions.
Studies in global consciousness use Random Event Generators to mark changes in the field. These Random Number Generators run for years and establish a baseline. Then, when an event of importance to many of us shows up, their output changes significantly.
These changes have been noted during events like Princess Diana’s funeral, Mother Theresa’s memorial or a global meditation. Our collective focus is the only thing that differs at these times and our combined energy has an effect on the physical Random Event Generators, along with the field itself.
If there was ever a time to infuse your intent into the collective, it is right now.
There is such anxiety with this election and it is felt across the ages. Six year olds to 80+ year olds are asking the same question – “What’s going to happen if ___ gets elected?” People are angry and confused and frightened. People are feeling powerless.
With each day bringing us closer to 11/8/16, I find myself becoming quieter, meditating more, and contemplating what matters. I realized in the middle of the Cubs craziness (I live in Chicago) that we are at a unique moment. A moment we are all in agreement about on some level.
We agree that something different is needed now. We see (in these characters running for the office of President), the absurdity and corruption of cartoon personalities – only they are real and we put them there.
Perhaps in hindsight we’ll see the wisdom in their candidacy. We’ll look back from some day in 2017 and say “You know, if those two candidates hadn’t been running last year – nothing would have changed.” Because change is upon us and it’s coming fast.
I choose to believe we’ll create the outcome that benefits the most of us; and that an election of such divisive and explosive emotions will yield its opposite – a powerful, collaborative and restorative peace.
We sure could use it.
Most of the predictions you’ll read now say massive upheaval is what’s coming next. A change of such proportions demands first a breakdown of what exists now.
We have the power to ignite and fuel the world we want to thrive in. Go within. Reach for your truth, and then hold on to it. Your light is needed and it’s needed now, regardless of your current homeland or favorite candidate. This shift begins in your heart and shows up as your deepest held truth.
These candidates for US President are very loud expressions of what used to be labeled “important” attributes for success. For most of us today they are instead hollow caricatures of humans & what they are shouting about matters little.
What’s ultimately important is what’s in your heart. For there you will define how you love.
As the Random Event Generators illustrate, we don’t all have to agree to effect change in the world. We actually do live in unity – let’s utilize that real power and do what we came to do. Demonstrate love at every opportunity.
We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.
In gratitude, peace and so much love,
