I am so guided by Spirit right now to write about this that I know there must be some big collective shift going on in the realm of NO LONGER seeing ourselves as victims. I have seen this theme in a lot of Akashic Records readings over the past 2 weeks and so that always clues me in to trends--firsthand collective shifts being witnessed.

And also, I just heard a voice lovingly say to me: "Without all of the drama....Who Am I?"

This is significant because I've spent my entire last decade or more puzzling out why all of the terrible things that happened to me kept happening, from the first moments that my marriage fell apart, to years spent healing breast cancer, and to more years healing inordinate childhood trauma.

And over the past year, my guides and mentors have continued to show me that I have to be absolutely diligent and NOT create drama in my life. This is because since I was tiny, I lived with trauma and fear raging but didn't know it, and so, it became absolutely normal to live with what I would just call immense anxiety.

There is a change afoot and the Guides are adamant that we pay attention.

You know the quote by Marianne Williamson that says that our biggest fear is our own greatness and our own light?

Is this fear actually keeping many of us in a victim vortex? I'm going to posit this is true.

Every day I work with amazingly powerful people who are not afraid to face their deepest fears to be happy, bright, sovereign ones. But I'm suddenly having this whole paradigm shift in front of my eyes:

Instead of constantly investigating why something is going wrong....we need to be focusing on how the heck to be the most badass version of hipster cool people we could possibly want to be! 

Does it freak you out to think about throwing in the towel on fear? To think of living without constantly thinking something is wrong? To say goodbye to constant pain or illness? Because we really are powerful enough to live without all of that, if we will only clue into it through our soul work.

We know this is a new golden age. We know it is a time where miracles are returning. What are we so afraid of? Is it because it's unknown? Or because we could actually be happier than we could possibly imagine? Have we been so deeply programmed by something else that we don't even know what this kind of freedom really could be like?

I am suddenly feeling like the answer is yes.

Over the past years, I have spent my fair share of time in the throes of downward-plummeting spirals of self hatred, self defeat, self pity, blame, shame....you name it. 

What causes all of that? Is the cause actually something in us that is so afraid to be real? To be seen? To be loved? Is it programming that we are finally ready to walk away from? 

The Council of Mothers--a large group of 2,000+ beings I channel, have now moved into this space and they relay this message:

"No matter how many times you try to hide in your own shadow selves and diminish your self worth out of self pity because it starts to actually feel good (like a 'hit' of endorphins actually)...the truth of who you are is always going to want to be known and so your higher self is always going to continue to try to bring you examples that trigger your memories. Until one day, you confide in your trust and your truth, and set yourself free."

"For millennia it has been humanity's trademark to belittle itself, treat itself poorly, deal itself a pauper's salary. Aren't you so very tired of this? Well you have to notice that you are doing it first, and then reach for the stars and grab your own sense of worthiness, and then, things begin to change."

"You can play in the garden of good and evil if you want. Or, you can dwell in the garden of Eden where the abundant you knows only self-loving, self-actualized mannerisms and beliefs. It is always your choice, dear ones. We are merely suggesting that perhaps you've chosen far too many times where you wanted to be subservient to the negative and passee thoughts that are of the old world. Do you crave real and lasting change?" 

"Look in the mirror. Tell yourself, 'I love you!' And get on with it. Move into your own space inside of you and take it over. Make the old thoughts vacate. You can do that. You know how to do that. Tell them to bugger off."

"Come out and play in the light of creation. Choose life. Choose your Self Worth. Stop thinking you could possibly be a victim to ANYONE or ANYTHING and start loving yourself completely and unconditionally. THAT will be your greatest freedom, yet."

"We love you so very much."
