If each human being felt empowered in his or her connection with him/herself and the living Earth (and all her inhabitants, of all species) the natural desire to create in harmony and cooperation with such a magnificent macrocosm would be naturally expressed.   It is true that each being, human or otherwise, always feels best and most joyously fulfilled when expressing in harmony and partnership with the whole.

What seems to be "hidden" is the way to free the mass population from the hypnotic belief that they need the "protection", services and resources of what is commonly referred to as the 1%*.  Once the masses no longer are under this hyponotic spell, the 1% are disempowered and they cannot sustain their exclusive wealth and control. Their "empires" collapse and symbiotic harmony is reestablished between the planet and her human inhabitants just as it was always intended to be.  It is only a flimsy illusion that holds the human masses in the spell of the 1% power holders.  As each individual and subsequently each community is empowered to live in harmony with the planet, the illusion will be revealed for what it is and the game is up. 

I can hear you asking, so HOW do we do that Amy?   How do I live in an empowered way, in harmony with all? 

My reply would be to do whatever way feels authentic and true to YOU once you step out of the shadow of fear that gives your power over to the 1%.  The 1% has NO power but compliance and the energy of the 99% to do it's bidding.  It's not money that has the power over us, it's our BELIEF in money that allows us to create it's power over us.  Power is in numbers.  WE are the the true power.  The many are always more powerful than the few.  The 99% is much more powerful than the 1%, we have just been brainwashed to believe we are not through the marketing of fear.**  This is the one thing the 1% never wants us to figure out and see, the illusion they have spun and the spell we have fallen under.  There is a reason it is called waking up. 

You cannot choose your actions based upon what another finds right for him/her to do.  He or she may have 10 acres of land to farm, while you may have a rooftop garden or a tiny window sill.  This is an individual choice of action made by each individual in each moment what is the truest expression of your relaxing into the harmonious flow.  There is no one way.  There are 7 billion ways.  But the wonderful thing is, the sum of all 7 billion ways equals a magnificent new world. 


* What I am calling the 1% is what is viewed as the seat of power and wealth in our world who are commonly and collectively referred to as the 1% while everyone else is called the 99%.  The 1% calls the shots, the 99% jumps to the call.

 

** All successful marketing is the selling of fear and scarcity; it is the exploitation of lack consciousness.  Consider commercials on TV or ads in magazines, they always show you 'how much better you and your life would be with ___.  In other words, you need ___ to be enough.  You are not enough as you are, you are lacking if you don't have or use ____.   Self realization is the realization that you are already filled up, that you are enough and that there is not one other thing you need to complete you.   You can then radiate and sparkle in the moment and interact with life in a magical way.  You can desire the experience of 'more' and seek to experience it from the perspective of being whole and complete.  Experiencing 'more' from a state of 'filled up' is pure bliss.  Chasing after 'more' because you feel you need it to be acceptable or ok, is pure horror.

 

 

 

 

Consider each quote. Just BE with it.  See what comes up for you as you feel (with your heart) it's message.  Each is a meditation disguised as a quote.

How do these geese know when to fly to the sun?  Who tells them the seasons?  How do we, humans, know when it is time to move on?  How do we know when to go?  As with the migrant birds, so surely with us, there is a voice within, if only we would listen to it, that tells us so certainly when to go forth into the unknown.
- Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, M.D.

"So then, when you're in the way of waking up, and finding out who you really are, what you do is what the whole universe is doing a the place you call here and now. You are something that the whole universe is doing in the same way that a wave is something that the whole ocean is doing... The real you is not a puppet which life pushes around; the real, deep down you is the whole universe.
