Becoming Conscious Newsletter (August 2010) Collapsing old timelines It seems that everybody is talking about timelines at the moment. Certainly in my life I am seeing timelines and synchronicities all over the place. If your eyes are open you will see the synchronicities all around you too. I was always told that when you see these synchronicities you are on track and that is your confirmation of where you are in your awakening process. I’ve observed though that there are synchronicities and there are synchronicities… some show up to tell you that you are being guided and are heading in the right direction and some show up to tell you that you are about to repeat a pattern or cycle all over again – a bit like a glitch in the matrix. So how does one tell the difference? Well as with many things in this feeling/sensing world that we are moving towards, the “difference” is both subtle and enormous at the same time and as with everything now, we have to go into our hearts to discern the difference. If you are new to working in this way, it can be a bit tricky at first but at some point you will find yourself so competent that your inner knowing takes over and gives you “the answer” almost even before you have realised there is a question to be asked. So how can you tell if you’re on track or repeating a pattern or cycle? Well firstly let us look at what a pattern actually is. For me in this context, I also refer to a pattern as a cycle, timeline or time loop. It’s like a behaviour pattern that we repeat again and again and a good example is in relationships (because they are such a great arena for growth and learning) where we would be saying to ourselves “why is this happening to me again? Why do I always end up with the same type of man/woman? “. Perhaps you are wondering why as soon as you are in a relationship you wish you were out of it, or starting a new job and realising it is just the same as the last one etc - you can get my meaning… that feeling of going round and round in circles and getting nowhere fast – like a hamster in a wheel and for some people their whole life appears to be like that, not just parts of it… Often these patterns or cycles are not really comfortable for us. They generally only make us happy for a short time before that old familiar feeling of something being “not quite right” sets in. But when you find yourself in the wrong place in your life it’s usually because something inside of you is not feeling quite right. Your external is a reflection of your internal so to see what’s “not quite right” you will have to sit with yourself and be brutally honest about what the “what” is. That can be hard… perhaps admitting that you don’t love your partner anymore, that you’re pretending to be somebody that you’re not, that you begrudge going out to work because you think you are entitled to stay at home and be supported by your partner! Its things like these that we are not willing to face and admit even to ourselves, that can cause us to stay in our repeating time loops and cycles. But when we see them, we can change them if we choose to… We have all had these patterns – (well maybe not the exact examples that I gave but similar) and to a degree, we feel quite safe with them. We have replayed them so many times (even in parallel/simultaneous lifetimes) that they feel completely familiar and that is why they are so difficult to spot at first… they have a particular magnetic pull to them and they sort of draw us in without us realising sometimes. For me personally, when I have noticed that I am about to step back into one of my old patterns I get a really odd feeling inside, its one of sick and fear all at the same time and it’s really not a good feeling because when I have seen the pattern, and know that I am not willing to step into that time loop again, then it means I am going to have to do something or say something that is going to change the course of my life – it’s going to change a timeline and that can be a really big deal sometimes. However, the more I’ve done it (even though there have been tears at times as I’ve had to leave behind things that I loved once…) the more exciting it becomes and the joy and happiness at having collapsed an old timeline quickly follows. (In the collapsing of an old timeline you release density from your body and can take in more light – if you are choosing to ride on the ascension timeline you want to take in more light – that’s the positive side of what may at first have appeared to be a “negative” experience). By contrast, when I see synchronicities that show me that I am on track, the feeling I get is straight off, one of joy, openness and lightness – it’s like a little bubble of excitement lifts off from somewhere deep inside of me and there is a feeling of anticipation and forward motion. It’s a beautiful feeling and it’s one I love experiencing. Thankfully, part of being awake is that we get to see these patterns and synchronicities and from there we can make conscious choices about what we want to experience next and in those choices we are creating our reality and choosing which timeline to ride on. I’ve noticed though that in recognising a time cycle about to repeat itself, there is often a moment of hesitation just before the choice is made – I call that the choice point and I’ve written about that before. In that choice point moment the conditions are right for that subtle yet enormous shift to take place. That subtle feeling that says “I won’t go down that road again” opens up to the ENORMOUS potential and power that you have just taken into your own hands, to ABSOLUTELY create your own reality. That power within you, within all of us is so ENORMOUS that the very size of it often shuts us right back down into fear and instead we choose to repeat the cycle because “we feel safe”. We have given our power away to fear and we have dropped from what was a higher consciousness moment of awareness into a lower consciousness need to feel safe and secure. Ghandi’s famous speech, written by Marianne Williamson is one of my favourites for that very reason… “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us…” In our choosing to stay small, we are choosing to stay on the same timeline - the outcome will be the same as before – different characters and venue perhaps but the same as before… We’ve talked many times before about the great shift and 2012 and it can’t be denied that the world is changing; the frequency of this planet is changing etc. We are at a time when our physical bodies are raising their frequency and in that we get to raise our consciousness and activate strands of DNA that have been unplugged by controlling forces and forgotten for eons of time. Most importantly we are at a time when we get to choose which timeline we create for our beautiful planet. Albert Einstein said “No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it” and thankfully as we continue to move forward and raise our consciousness more and more, we are able to see what we need to see from those time cycles and we don’t have to repeat them again. As the veils are lifted and we break through more illusions, we can see that there are many things happening on our planet that are not OK. But seeing them is one thing – doing something about them is another and we now find ourselves at a time of a planetary choice point, an enormous shift is taking place and all the ascension frequencies are here for the shift into the New Earth. Should this shift into a new level of consciousness not take place we will step back into a repeating time cycle on a planetary level. We will have given our power away again and we will be controlled and manipulated again. Our DNA this time will be unplugged through chemicals, vaccinations and mind controlling frequencies and we will enter another 26,000 year planetary cycle before we have another major planetary choice point opportunity. We are talking about a global shift of consciousness here but THANKFULLY as we’ve seen through with our personal choice point opportunities we are ENORMOUSLY powerful beings and we have the ability to create our reality. Admittedly it takes more than just a few of us but together we can create the New Earth Timeline in fact we are creating it already but we need to all stand up and be counted now and say “No we are not going down that road again”. We need to make conscious choices and remove the things that are not quite right in our lives (thereby bringing in more light to our bodies and the planet at the same time) and it’s in the KNOWING that we are POWERFUL God Beings, truly capable of creating Heaven on Earth and KNOWING AND DECLARING that it is our divine birthright to be able to make conscious choices that we will bring this energetic possibility into physical reality. To that end the veils must be lifted so that we can see through the illusions that have been presented to us – and in this most wonderful of times to be upon this planet all of our Universe is moving to bring us into alignment with the Galactic Core so that this can be achieved through the pulses of stellar frequencies and galactivations that help to shift density and raise our consciousness. What is revealed is not going to be pretty – things will seem pretty dark – they already do – but it is in the darkest of times that we are never closer to the light AND WE ARE SO CLOSE NOW!!! So much light is coming on to the planet now and that is exactly why we are seeing the things that have been covered up. Congratulate yourself that you are light enough now to begin to see into the dark!! We have come from all over the Galaxy and the Cosmos to be here for this moment and to assist in the shifting of mass consciousness and we are encouraging you to join with us now in this Wave of Love. As we open our hearts together and bring through all the love that is within us we jump timelines and ride the timeline of the New Earth and we create Heaven on Earth. Will you join us…? With hearts set on truth and love we invite you to leave behind your repetitive cycling and ride the upward spiral of light. Collapse the old timelines that no longer serve you and ride with us on the Ascension Wave… Blessings, Karen AnTara © 2010, Karen AnTara All rights reserved Please note in order to distribute this Newsletter in other forums please do so with the following guidelines: Include author's credit, copyright and include the Becoming Conscious website url. http://www.becomingconscious.com
Becoming Conscious newsletter - July 2010 (4/2010)
Choice Point
We are once again at a time of Choice Point in our evolution. We've been here before in this constructed time loop that we just don't see.
In this constructed false reality that we live in certain trigger events have been put in place. Depending on how we respond to the trigger event, a particular pathway is then followed leading us to a specific event horizon. 9/11 was one of these trigger events - it certainly changed people's lives… Many people went into fear over the perceived "terrorist threat" - everything changed in terms of air travel and the extra security precautions put in place etc, etc - but was the "terrorist threat" even real or was it designed to put people into fear, create suspicion and distrust of others, cause separation and a "kill or be killed" mentality. Was it designed actually to lower the frequency of the masses and keep them in density, thereby securing the intended 9/11 event horizon.
Thankfully we have been able to avert a WWIII event horizon but the controlling forces have been able to complete their dark agenda to some degree as we did experience the war with Iraq and tighter controls on travel - including microchipping our passports (we're next on their list if we are not vigilant against it), introducing full body scanners into airports (not as harmless as they at first appear) and mass vaccinations to name just a few. We are told that these things will keep us safe, therefore the subliminal message is that "we are not safe". Through keeping us in fear they are trying to prevent us from accessing higher states of consciousness that would enable us to see right through their games. There is much information available on the internet about how this whole 9/11 event was created at home and was not an invasion at all. Thankfully we were able to find enough love and compassion in our hearts for our fellow humans and we brought enough light into the situation that the darkness was lifted. Observe this, see it for what it is and then choose love over fear.
Over the last few months we have begun to see that we are once again looking at the potential of a cataclysmic event on our planet - that being the situation in the Gulf of Mexico. Once again, much information is out there on the internet about how this event has occurred, the cover ups, the "mistakes" etc, and I have shared some of the information that I felt to be important on my Facebook page Becoming Conscious - Karen AnTara and on my personal page too. As with everything, it is really for your personal discernment - what do you believe? what feels right for you? At times, what has been reported has felt shocking and sickening - I have been aware that my body has wanted to go into fear over what is happening to our beautiful planet, but yet at the same time holding myself in higher consciousness I can see that perhaps this is just what is needed to create a mass awakening. As more and more of us demand truth, we begin to carry the Truth Vibration which aligns with our hearts and the vibration of Love can then be carried out into the collective. All is in Divine Order.
This situation in the Gulf represents a trigger event for us - how we choose to respond and whether we allow it to impact us positively or negatively will create the pathway to the next event horizon. Will you go into fear? Or will you choose love? What vibration do you want to feel in your body…?
With that said - is it useful to bury your head in the sand and pretend that nothing is happening to prevent feeling the fear? - probably not - I for one would rather see the truth of the situation, though it may be hard to face. What I am promoting is informed awareness, seeing the truth of the situation but from a vantage point of higher consciousness. If we can stay in our heart and feel love we can access higher consciousness, experience multi dimensional reality and ultimately Unity Consciousness. If we go into our head (through fear) we can only access the mind controlled matrix of this 3D planet. You create your reality - energy follows thought - What do you want to create as your reality?
We've been talking about earth changes for a long time - we knew things were going to get tough in our ascension process and the birthing of a new earth… all we have to do is be conscious and hold the vibration of truth and love. Stand up for what you believe in - do you want freedom or tighter controls? Focus on the giving and sharing of love and light and you will create more of that in your reality - though sometimes it can take a while for us to see the results and that is often when we give up and slip back into the old habits of closing our hearts to protect ourselves from hurt. In fact when we do this we are causing ourselves more suffering. It's a time to keep vigilant now though and keep choosing love.
At any time when enormous numbers of people on the planet are being affected by an event - whether that be a man made event or a natural disaster - huge amounts of fear and grief are released into the collective unconscious mind grids of the planet. We are all affected by these grids to some degree - that is why we cried when Princess Diana or Michael Jackson passed away (even though we didn't know them personally - but they were holding a huge energetic template on this planet ), or why we cry and feel pain when we see the distress of the people experiencing an earthquake or tidal wave. We ARE all one. We are connected - these are our brothers and sisters and we feel compassion in our hearts for what we/they experience. We feel the emotion being released into the grid and we respond. By the same token if many people are experiencing fear of survival (as is the case in the Gulf right now) we can feel that too. Fear of survival is generally seen as one of our core fears. Fear is a low vibration and prevents us from connecting to higher consciousness. To be free and to be all that we truly are we must connect to higher consciousness - to God Consciousness. And we must do everything in our power to find and maintain that connection within us. We are all connected, all the time - its just hard to remember that, when you are continually worried about your survival. This continual worry activates the reptilian brain and we forget to love one another - this holds us and the whole planet in a lower vibrational reality. It's what the controlling forces want.
To add another layer of understanding to these challenging times, this time on the subject of cellular memory and what is stored in our DNA. As we face the potential cataclysmic events of the Gulf and the fear of survival via the collective unconscious we are also triggering a remembering from within our cells and DNA. (Don't forget - we're on a time loop until we clear and upgrade the DNA and activate the Lightbody). To prevent a "shut down" when we feel this much fear, our bodies search for a coping mechanism (we go back into our patterning) - has this feeling been experienced before? what was the outcome? Remember too, that we are doing this ascension process in human bodies for the first time - this hasn't been experienced before - we are creating a new template for this. It is our job to take in light, release density and fear and shift ourselves into a higher vibrational reality and yet when our bodies automatically search our databanks for past experience of this feeling, what do we come up with? The memory of Atlantis!!! That in itself, can promote fear within us. The outcome of Atlantis was major destruction for the people, planet and the planetary grids. It's almost like a double whammy of fear is being realised at this time for some people - not that they are necessarily consciously "in fear", but that their body on some level is experiencing a "fight or flight" reaction with all the hormonal, stress related affects of that in order to clear it from the DNA of the physical body and the planet.
When we are clearing cellular memory and DNA it's a really physical experience for some of us and can cause us to feel: very tired and heavy, lethargic and nauseous, aching body and back ache, particularly lower back, pelvis and hips (which represents our security, foundations and grounding), headaches (toxins are clearing from the body). All of these symptoms are very prevalent right now and some people are also experiencing flu like symptoms - the proverbial "ascension flu" or "kundalini flu" if you choose to see that your body and your chakras are a clearing house not only for your DNA and energy field but that of the planet also.
So, once again, its important to not go into fear. If you are one of the people whose body is clearing planetary memory of trauma - Thank You for your service to the planet and humanity!! Breathe - Hold your Light. Observe the process from Higher Conscious and keep your heart open. It will pass.
And for the rest of us… Breathe - Hold your Light. Observe the process from Higher Conscious and keep your heart open… we are serving the planet and humanity too - holding the Light for those who are in pain.
We came here at this time to hold light and love - to clear lower vibrations from our bodies and ascend them into Light and we WILL see this job done so that we can all move into a higher expression of love.
Until next time…
Love and Blessings…

Becoming Conscious Newsletter - May 2010 (3/2010)
Cycles of Change
A change in the weather here in
This cycle of life and death has also been extremely active in my life in recent weeks both with the ending of my teaching of meditation classes and also in making the decision to no longer share a stand at the Mind Body and Spirit Exhibition but to have my own independent stand from here on in - these two things are for me representing Autumn, letting go, the falling of the leaves…
I am in a stillness and resting stage now as I recover my strength after a very busy MBS Exhibition last weekend and prepare for the two great Workshops that I am teaching on the 5th and 6th June here in Sydney - which represent for me my Springtime as I optimistically emerge with the first two Workshops or Levels of my Training Course for Healers, of which I spoke of briefly in my last newsletter. Another level of my Springtime will reveal itself in Perth in September at the Conscious Living Expo and Sydney in November at the MBS with a new look to my Stand - new fresh blooms on my Tree of Life!
As I continue to prepare the first two Workshops I am really excited about the vision I see for the Training Course for Healers as a further more advanced level has revealed itself to me also - to be called Becoming Conscious Healing Frequencies. As a whole, what I am teaching in these two Courses pretty much includes everything I use myself in my healing work, thus creating a really broad spectrum of skills for you to call upon as and when guided to do so by Spirit.
I must admit to a tinge of sadness on the last day of teaching of the meditation classes - but it was followed very quickly by excitement as the new opportunities and potentials began to flow in. For some time I had been feeling a bit limited as to what I was able to bring into the classes in the two short hours that we had together each week but with the creation of the Training Course for Healers and the different Workshops contained therein I will have one whole day of teaching, and later, two full days of teaching and I am absolutely buzzing with excitement - there will be no limits now and I can bring through some of the more advanced work I've wanted to share for so long. As one door closes, another opens and the doors are wide open now!!
The Self Healing for Ascension Workshop teaches a series of techniques which can be used on yourself or others to clear and balance the emotional body, assist with raising the frequency of the body, energy awareness and clearing of stagnant energies within the energy field and techniques to integrate higher frequencies more comfortably. It offers a daily practice of energetic spiritual housekeeping and energetic first aid techniques.
The Shamanic Workshop helps to connect us more to the earth through the use of ceremony and connecting with power animals. Many people would rather connect with their guides and angels or feel more drawn to connect with the stars, however, we are here on this earth and by connecting more deeply with Gaia, we are actually able to connect upwards higher too - the deeper you go the higher you go in a sense and one has only to look at the powerful shaman and medicine men and women of indigenous cultures to see the power that can be obtained through that connection with Mother Earth. In this workshop we will connect with the power and strength of the animals as totems, blending with their energy to feel and sense that power for healing and divination. Through the
If you would like further information about these workshops, please contact me on 0413753086 or mail@becomingconscious.com I'm sure you can already see the absolute potential of these Workshops to make a change in your life and shift your consciousness to a whole new level!
I'm also really excited to announce that my first professionally produced Meditation CD is now available - Meditations for Spiritual Awareness - far surpassing the quality and vibration of my previous "homemade" versions. Contained on this CD are two meditations - a basic Awareness Meditation suitable for beginners or those days when you have difficulty quietening the mind chatter and Sitting in Stillness Meditation for more experienced meditators. The music has been channelled specifically for this CD by Mark Thomas, an experienced musician, healer and meditator who works with sound and light frequencies for activation of the DNA codes for ascension. The CD is available through the online shop on my website or you can contact me direct through the details give above.
Current planetary energies
The cycle of life through the Autumn, Winter and Spring, that I have shared with you above, represents my personal experience of what is happening on a global level at this time - you can probably see much of it playing out in your life too. (It's always good to be able to see things symbolically - it aids our understanding).
Almost as each day goes by I am hearing of people and animals who have chosen to leave the planet and also of people who have begun to manifest physical disease within the body that has the potential to take them through a shift of consciousness into a new way of being on this planet (living through a major health crisis) or alternatively a transition into another state of consciousness in another dimension of space and time (death of the physical body).
Without doubt, these are challenging times that we live in… some people have been able to hold it all together through times of economic crises just to find that their health or that of a loved one is now being challenged. These challenging situations have always been here - in a way that is why we chose to come to this most densest of environments, for this very opportunity to grow and evolve the soul. What we probably didn't realise though is just how tough it would be when we got here and particularly during this Ascension Cycle or the 2012 Ascension Timeline when time seems to be speeding up and timelines are collapsing one on top of the other at such speed that there is no reprieve from one set of challenging circumstances to the next. Balancing the emotional body, being involved in relationships, trying to keep our minds clear and free from programming, putting a roof over our head and food on our tables - all at the same time as trying to remember that we are not separate individual beings but part of the collective that came here at this time to ascend our bodies into light - and that we chose this because we knew we could do it! If we could remember our contact - what we came here to do - we might just be able to get through this "Shift of Ages", but the problem is, try as we might many of us just can't remember most, if not all, of the time. Here comes the need for self responsibility, focus and commitment to our own personal evolution, through meditation, self healing techniques, and connection with nature, forgiveness and compassion. There is guidance and support out there if we need it, but the basic groundwork is ours alone.
I have seen that keeping a positive attitude by avoiding or removing ourselves from negative environments, situations or people helps and sometimes we have to be really strong to put those changes in place in our lives. Sometimes the people around us don't like the changes we've made, but that might be just too bad for them! We have to put ourselves first - our Soul depends on it!!
As I've said before the level of intensity will increase more and more until everything is in place and in alignment with our choices. If you are consciously choosing ascension and actively working towards that Higher Self connection and surrendering to Divine Will then that is what you will experience. However, if you are unsure if you really want that, if it all seems too hard, if you are consciously making bad choices or overriding the messages of your heart for the logical control of your mind, then it's completely possibly that you will experience more challenging situations in your life. Again these can be viewed negatively, perhaps putting you into a state of victim consciousness (why is this happening to me? why do they keep doing this to me?) or it can be viewed positively as another opportunity to revisit your choices - perhaps you need to change direction, let go of something or follow your heart and be in truth. Every situation holds a possibility for growth. You wanted to come here and do this - the Universe is actually trying to support you…
Sometimes situations, relationships or people can come into a time of Autumn - when the leaves fall. They will move forwards into a state of Winter with life feeling pretty cold and harsh and seemingly offering no potential for growth or indeed for life. Some people remain in that stagnant state for many years as they are not able to make the necessary changes within themselves and their lives to move into a more creative cycle of existence. (These people may be feeling the intensity very strongly right now). Indeed sometimes over the (symbolic) Winter, relationships or people will die and others will bloom again come the Spring. This is the natural cycle of life and providing a shift of consciousness has been achieved the Winter can be very short indeed and one moves into Spring very quickly. (Spring being a time of new creation and Summer of full bloom).
Shortly after Spring comes Summer when once again we feel the warmth of the sunshine upon our face, the joy of a new relationship or the resurrection of an old one, the return to good health - symbolic here of being bathed in the light, feeling peace in our hearts, the connection with all that is and being in alignment with our true self and divine will. The symbolic awareness of these natural cycles will assist you in understanding what is going on for you personally - through awareness you can create the shift within yourself to move quickly into Spring and Summer, rather than to remain stuck in Winter…
As you look at the world around consciously and symbolically, you can see the cycles that many people are in. You can see their health, relationships or jobs beginning to enter the cycle of Autumn - it is their choice whether they move quickly into Spring. Be conscious to hold a space of neutrality as you observe - don't go into judgement or gossip about the situations you observe as that will divert you from seeing the natural flow within all things. Most importantly, take quiet time and observe your own life. It's better to become an expert at observing the natural cycles of flow within your own life than to be an expert on someone else's. Perhaps there is something to be learned though - are they holding up a mirror for you to look into…? Evolve your awareness and take a look…
Blessings to you

Are you feeling the Intensity yet?
Have you noticed that the ascension waves are increasing in intensity? Many months ago now I wrote about this and indeed it is the case, that we are being pushed more and more as the months lead us towards December 2012.
The 2012 discussion is becoming very popular it seems with Hollywood, the media and even documentaries (or should I say "programmes") on the Discovery Science channels joining in with their little bits of information. Unfortunately whenever I am unlucky enough to come into contact with this type of information what strikes me immediately is how fear based and negative its vibration is. Whilst I would say that I definitely do not go into fear over it, I am very aware that if I did not have the knowledge that I have around the 2012 timeline, fear would be a possibility for me and therefore I feel that the majority of the people watching and listening to these types of "programmes" are experiencing that fear or some level of it anyway. I do feel that much of the information given is "a programme" - we are being programmed to go into fear - fear of survival, pain, loss, suffering - it's a pretty dismal picture that is being painted, don't you think? If you constantly think of these things, you could probably draw them into your reality if you choose however I choose to see things very differently and continue to focus on creating a beautiful outcome for our planet and our people. We are at a time of great opportunity - a time to absolutely create our own reality and I am actively focusing on a positive and enlightened outcome through this process of change. Wouldn't it be fantastic if
In discussion with people recently, I've noticed that there seems to be a sort of "well if its all going to end in 2012, lets all do whatever the heck we want to now because it doesn't matter anyway" type of attitude… people are still not really willing to take responsibility for their actions or face up to what they've done and be honest - even with themselves. Cleaning up the mess we've made is not really an exciting job but I do feel that we are being supported at this time to clean up the mess, be in truth and clear our karma. Sometimes there is a price to pay for "coming clean" (but then again there's also a price to pay for living in fear and denial) and at least one can live in truth and face themselves after everything has been addressed.
2012, for me, represents the truth vibration- a very clear and pure vibration - we all want peace and harmony in our lives, but how can we obtain that when we are holding the vibrations within us of anger, hostility, resentment or hate? These waves of ascension that wash over us and through us have a habit of bringing up all the old feelings that we thought we had dealt with, only right now they seem to be dredging from even deeper within us. As Gregg Braden said in a recent interview "it's almost like all the fluffy easy lessons are gone, and whatever we are going through right now it's the big stuff, the core issues, that although they may have been healed in the past, they're asking for a greater healing and by virtue of that, they are preparing us, training us, if you will, so that we may better accommodate the changes in the world around us, although we may not know that on a conscious level". Make no mistake - this is deep intense work we are doing here now… We've known for some time that it's going to get tough and boy is it just!!!
As Lightworkers and WayShowers, we will be required more and more as time goes by, to be able to weather this storm by maintaining our centre and holding strong to our truth. We KNOW what's going on in this ascension/clearing process but the masses don't and they're having to do it anyway - it's a scary place for many of them - no wonder so many are spiralling out of control right now. The more of our personal work that we can get done now though the easier it will be for us later - get used to going into your own personal process, through meditation, contemplation or journaling… learn some breathwork techniques or clearing exercises and really get used to using them now so that when a process comes up, you know immediately what to do about it. Get comfortable with sitting quietly just with yourself, get to KNOW yourself so that you can see your triggers and deal with them quickly and completely as soon as they make themselves known, rather than denying they exist.
Through my own personal processes I've noticed that the same emotions come up for me again and again, I've learnt to recognise them quicker now though. They seem to hurt more and feel deeper, each time they're not as raw but somehow they are deeper within - they are absolutely in the core of my being. I am really pushing into the depths of myself to pull them up and to clear them - it feels like some of them rooted lifetimes ago. I've seen that emotions that once had control of me - that once sent me spiralling, I am now able to witness from outside of myself… I can see how destructive and paralysing they could be to the lower self and can observe them from the higher self. When I am able to be in higher self there is no emotional attachment and when I drop in to lower self I feel huge waves of pain and grief as all of what I experienced comes up again to be healed. By holding my centre and being in higher consciousness the process becomes quite interesting to observe… though as it is necessary to experience it, again I drop right in it and have to feel it. Perhaps our self mastery is just that in fact - being able to pull out of it and not get swept away in the spiralling emotions of the lower self - not get swept away in the illusion… So I wanted to share that part of my process with you as a way for you to perhaps begin to understand how your process might look also - and certainly it's taken me a while to get to this place of witnessing rather than spiralling.
I'm thinking that we'll always have work to do - I don't know if our processing ever really ends but I do know the benefits of getting each process done and dealt with rather than allowing it to sit uncomfortably inside through our own state of denial. When the ego comes up and smacks you in the face, do you want to be held its prisoner in fear, a victim of your own ego and self doubt? Or do you want to be the person that you really are - strong, powerful, confident, observer, Creator…
So I've been given the heads up to a period of three months of intensity in the lead up to the full moon lunar eclipse and summer solstice in June. Use this period as a time to do some groundwork and clearing - don't hold on to stuff that is coming up for you as if you do you will eventually hit overload! Process now, so that you can take advantage of a fast flow of energy that will come in after June and, if you're ready, could propel you forwards with the creation that you have been working on for some time…
Stay centred and in the Light…
Namaste and Blessing to you,
Karen AnTara

January 2010 Newsletter
Realise your creative potential!
Well there's excitement in the air - can you feel it??? People all around are saying that this is going to be a really good year! Do people always say that at the start of a new year? Or are we saying it more this year?
December 31st kicked us into 2010 with a Full (Blue) Moon in the emotional planet of Cancer, plus a Lunar Eclipse - that's some pretty powerful energy going on up there - which of course affects us down here… so the start of 2010 may have been an emotional one for some of us. Perhaps you were assessing 2009; its pluses and minuses, its challenges and its achievements or perhaps you were feeling that you were just in the wrong place or with the wrong people - that something just wasn't quite right. For those of us sensitive to planetary energies it's possible too that you were just feeling emotional even though everything is actually happy in your world… just allow the energies to pass through you and observe them without attachment.
Mercury was in retrograde until 15th January - so again this may have brought technological breakdown - phones, computers etc and not really a great time to be starting new projects or trying to move things forward either. Instead this start to 2010 has been better used by clearing clutter and tidying up. As you are clearing clutter, be conscious also that you are releasing emotional ties to those objects too, so you are doing an emotional clearing at the same time. When you are emptying cupboards and boxes of items that you no longer need, acknowledge that those items belonged to another timeline that may or may not be relevant to you now. I have been doing a major de-cluttering of my home and discovered a book that I loved as a child, that I have carried around the world with me each time I moved countries because I wanted to share it with my children… it's a book that each time I tried to read it with them/to them they just were not interested in hearing it - finally, it's taken me all this time to release it - I have no intention of reading it again, they don't want to read it - why am on holding on to it so tightly??? The book was all about a little girl called Heidi and what I remember of the book was that she had freedom to explore and be who she truly was. Of course, that may be the story or not, but it is what it represented to me. I don't need to hold on to that book anymore…
So the energy has been quite intense so far this year - much needed of course as once again we are being pushed to reach our maximum potential and clear up old stuff so that we can move ahead again. Thank you Mercury!
With Mercury direct once again, the energies are starting to move forward now with some of us excited at the new projects we see on the horizon, and others of us looking out across the horizon with dismay - we are not seeing anything coming, perhaps all we see are problems and more of the same stuck feeling that we have been experiencing for what feels like such a long time…
If you are a person who is feeling stuck, in a sense, this is a make or break year for you… you really are at a choice point now. With the energies set to intensify as we move through the year any uncomfortable feelings you have right now are likely to intensify also. Deep down, you know if there are things that you are not dealing with or things you have tried to cover up - I would encourage you to begin to allow yourself to look at these things you are denying within yourself. When we have this type of so called "baggage" that we are holding on to, it really slows down the flow of energy within your body (leading to stress or possible illness) and also your life in general as you are unable to allow your own personal creativity to come through and be expressed in the beautiful life that you have the potential to create. We all have the potential to create a beautiful life and part of the reason we are here, perhaps, is to allow the true expression of all that we are to come through and be seen. We ARE infinite potential and it is only that we think ourselves so small and insignificant that we allow ourselves to be stuck and limited in our creativity. To "be creative" is not necessarily to be a "painter" or a "musician" in the archetypal sense of the word but to "paint the picture of what you want your life to look like" - "to sing the song of your heart". You are the creator of what your life looks like - do you like how it looks? You create your own reality - if you don't like what you see begin to change it - change the landscape, change the person you have become and become the person you came here to be…
This year is a very supportive year for change… on all levels. Take personal time through journaling and meditation and begin to make a list of all the things that you feel are no longer in alignment for you. Be sure to add a list of things that you wish to draw towards you, for example, better health and fitness, mutually honest and supportive relationships, positive thinking, time for meditation or reflection. By writing the things down on paper that you want to attract in to your life you are solidifying your intent so much more than by just having wafting thoughts that go in and out of your mind. You are setting your intent in a much more positive way. Place your list somewhere where you can look at it often to activate it energetically with your intent.
So for those of you already seeing the creative potential in this year… move forward positively step by step - there's no need to rush… as you align yourself more and more to your truth and true expression so the divine clicks in place and things get down in a divinely orchestrated way. Things that could almost seem impossible suddenly slip into place if they are in alignment. That's the magic that could be our lives if we give up our need to control the outcome of every single thing.
Surrendering our need to control doesn't mean giving up and being swept along out of control, it means surrendering our need to make things happen the way we think they should. It means being open to what might come through as a potential way to get things done. It means being open to something that you might not have thought of as being the absolutely best and most perfect outcome for this project or situation. It might be that several different options are presented to you all at the same time. Some of the options might be the ones you strived for, some might be opportunities that have dropped in "out of the blue" - the process of consciously co-creating your life and having "free will and choice" is then right there staring you in the face… will you choose the option that your mind tells you is the best choice for logical reasons of x, y and z, or will you choose the option that makes your heart sing like never before and you have an absolute knowing around (even if your logical mind can't understand why!) This is conscious co-creation… from this choice you create the next steps in your life and how your life looks. It's best that you do it consciously through your heart, not through your head.
Conscious co-creation then is accepting responsibility for the choices that you made and possibly admitting to yourself that some were not heart choices. It may be uncomfortable looking back at some of your "mistakes", but really there are none - they are just opportunities for learning. There are some things you would never do again - you have that as a knowingness now - that's the lesson learnt and that's how we do it down here on earth! If you take the time you can also find some of your best choices - those will be the ones that make your heart leap or bring a smile to your face - you also have an absolute knowingness about those too and those are the ones I would encourage you to remember more - say to yourself "what a good choice that was!" and feel how it feels as a type of template of a feeling that you need to be feeling for every choice that you make from now onwards. If it doesn't have that feeling, will you still choose it?
So, leaving you with your warm and fuzzy feelings to consciously co-create a beautiful life, until next time…
Blessings,
Karen AnTara
