Q: How are love and 2012 related?
A: Given that fear is the dominant emotion associated with such a earth-shaking event as 2012, it is understandable that the message of love gets lost. But 2012 is simply the universe’s method for getting our attention—and then turning that attention to the importance of unconditional love. Becoming more loving is a necessary step if we wish to move up the ladder of consciousness and expand our awareness to embrace all life in a loving manner, without judgment or separation.
It may seem harsh—2012 is likely to bring disruption and pain—but the more quickly we learn to love unconditionally, and collectively, the easier and faster will be the transition to the next level of consciousness: the fourth and fifth dimension. At this level, we gain vital powers over ourselves and our environment. To exercise those powers responsibly, we need a good attitude. 2012 is designed to teach us this fact. Read more below above love:
[from the Introduction, Welcoming 2012]
Two important pieces of information will help you understand the collective power we hold over the future of Earth. First, simple physics is at work, not God’s wrath. Thought has consequences. The energy fields of Earth react like a tuning fork to our collective emotions. Loving thoughts soothe the new Earth, while fear, broadcasted across the globe, has the opposite effect. Fear creates waves of discordant energies that heighten social disruption, institutional and economic breakdowns, and geological tantrums.
Second, the more skilled we become at how to love, the greater our power. Love with judgments and conditions attached—the kind we generally practice—has limited power. But love that embraces strangers and every other aspect of creation resonates with the deepest truths of a loving universe. The events of 2012 are designed to remind us of this important lesson, for solid reasons. Before offering up the use of its most potent force—the infinite and creative use of consciousness—the universe is pressuring us to abandon old habits and beliefs, and, through tough love, is teaching us to pull together for a common purpose. With the future of the planet in our hands, mastering unconditional love becomes an imperative for survival. We’ll learn quickly.
Our challenge is to live fearlessly and hold the future in love, not an easy task when your world appears to dissolve. But here’s the real point of the book: you know how to do this. Within each of us is a deeply-held ability to use love’s energies for our personal safety, and on behalf of our planet. Held in your cellular memories is a distant, unknown past, when you created reality. You can do that again.
The heart is your primary tool. Many people today feel vague, disquieting energies coursing through their bodies. But the heart can calm and direct these new energies. In fact, a potential hidden in the heart hidden for 10,000 years has been activated by the Shift. Science, quite recently, has begun to accumulate evidence for this power. Neurocardiologists have discovered that a network of up to 40,000 neurons function as a brain in the heart, receiving and sending hormonal, nervous, and energetic messages to the body and brain.
This connection affects cognition and the stress response in the body. But a metaphysical function has been verified as well. When tuned to intentional feelings of compassion, gratitude, forgiveness, and acceptance, the heart’s ‘intelligence’ responds with an exceptional wave of energies that radiates into the cells of the body and outward into space. The heart’s power includes the ability to send and receive information beyond the bounds of time and space. This key fact can help you tap the energies of The Shift, as well as broadcast stabilizing energies of love into the field of the planet. If enough of us do this, it will smooth the ride through the turbulence of 2012.

What is the science behind 2012?
The process of transition from one level of consciousness to the next is neither a miracle nor magic; it’s just science we have not yet discovered. The governing force behind the science is energy and vibration. During the transition, the universe has a system for pumping high level, fast frequency energies into earth’s systems, including us. That system begins with increasing the core vibration of the earth, which in turn affects the frequencies of consciousness that govern our thinking and awareness. As the vibrations increase, we are ‘aware’ of more.
One key aspect of the shift is our discovery of a universal field of consciousness through which energy travels and which connects us into one whole. This is the basis for telepathy, psychic occurrences, and inspiration—in fact, it’s presence explains all of the phenomena which presently mystify us. Discovering this field and the tools associated with it is a key outcome of 2012.
The field also tells us how—and why—we are responsible for creating our own reality. Rather than isolated beings lost in a random universe, we operate as co-owners and co-creators of the universe. God is us. An excerpt from the book will help you understand this.
[from Chapter One, Welcoming 2012]
The notion that we create our circumstances, or fashion events, or can mold energy into form is the stuff of fantasy movies or pop culture. But it happens to be true. The Shift is designed to unveil the most powerful truth the universe can offer us: we create our reality. Reality is a co-product of the partnership between us and the whole, and the Messengers show us the exact mechanism through which the process of co-creation occurs.
The primal pulse provides the key clue to co-creation. Like water pumped from a hand pump, the energies of love and light gush forth into space in increments and produce the familiar ‘river of consciousness’ metaphor present in many Eastern teachings. In Ramtha’s language:
Consciousness is like a river, and your whole self—including every cell of your body—is continuously fed by it, for thought supports and gives credence to your life. You live by thought from consciousness flow.
But the flow is not consistent. At rates beyond our comprehension, consciousness pulses outward with a rush of information, punctuated by a pause and a moment of utter stillness, the essence of the original creation. But the river of consciousness flows both ways. Ramtha tells us: “…you must first understand that not only does everything exist from thought, which is the Mind of God, but every thing emanates the thought of its being back to the Mind of God.”
And:
You are continuously taking thought from the river of thought, feeling it in your soul, feeding and expanding your entire being through that emotion, and putting the thought of your expanded self back out into the river, which expands the consciousness of all life.
By knowing this detail, we can now see how intention can be seeded into the pulse of creation. Our thoughts, fueled by emotion, flow continuously back to the Source. During the moment of stillness, we seed the primal pulse with fresh intention; in the outward movement, the universe now reflects our intention. In a very real sense, the world is created anew with each pulse. Between every pulse, the opportunity awaits to recreate reality, to bring new events into our life by laying the template of thought—of energies—that can coalesce into third-dimensional reality. Alexander states: “All events of your life, of your world, spring from realms beyond the primal pulse…It is only later, in your time, terms, that the events created in such realms find expression in the Earth’s flow of moments.”
...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
What is the primal pulse?
A key fact is unknown to our present astrophysicists: The universe blinks off and on in rapid succession, creating a set of waves that radiate outward from the source of the universe. The waves are composed of two elements, love and light. Both love and light are energies that vibrate at rates too high for us measure. Love provides the core energy that ‘glues’ the universe into a whole; understanding love in its highest form is the ultimate aim of evolution. Once you see love at this level, you become love. You reach the state of enlightenment.
Light is the building block energy of the universe. Through extremely intricate geometrics, light interlocks in various waveforms to form visible reality. Some of this visible reality vibrates at levels too high for our senses; hence, those energies stay ‘invisible’ to us. Nonetheless, they exist, and after 2012 we will begin to notice more of them as our vibration rises to a more compatible level with previously invisible realities.
Understanding the primal pulse allows us to explain the science behind intention and affirmation—or even the broader concept that we create our own reality. As we project our own creative thought outward, our thought is inserted in the ‘off’ moment before the next blink of the primal pulse. Our thoughts are now included in the outward waves.

Is earth an experiment?
Yes, strangely enough it is an experiment—an experiment in love in which we are the original experimenters. At the beginning, many of us were part of the star civilizations that seeded earth. These civilizations originally practiced unconditional love, which gave them free access to the powers we associate with divinity. Through a long and difficult history, those powers declined. We forgot the power of love, and over time began to see ourselves as separate from the universe, rather than a part of it. That is the Fall referred to in Biblical literature.
2012 is the culminating point of the experiement, the point at which we regain our understanding of love and our universal connection. It will not happen all at once, but the process will begin in earnest, and the course of history, in which we grew apart from the universe, will be reversed. This is the reason that 2012 is an important event, not just for our planet, but throughout the universe. If we succeed, the universe wins.

Who are the ‘new children’ and what do they bring to 2012?
Known by terms such as the Indigos or Crystal Children, the New Children are a diverse group of souls who have incarnated in the last 20 years or so, and who enter in an earthly life with a highly developed consciousness. Many come from other star systems with advanced knowledge; some are highly creative or psychic; others come with a rebellious spirit, determined to break up existing patterns of thought on the planet. Because the vibrations of earth have shifted into faster frequencies, they now have a ‘window’ of opportunity and can be born on this planet.
The New Children are a form of assistance to us. Without advanced souls, we might not make it through 2012. But if you’re a parent, you know it’s not easy to raise one of these advanced souls. They know how to argue, and they’re strong-willed.

Does Jesus know about 2012?
He not only knows about 2012, he leads the pack. Using the name Sananda or Yeshua, Jesus is said to lead the Confederation of Light’s efforts to coordinate the forces that are helping us through the 2012 transition. Material from Welcoming 2012 sheds more light on Jesus and 2012.
[from Chapter Eleven, Welcoming 2012]
…according to the Messengers, Jesus is not the Son of God. Neither is Jesus associated with original sin, which the Messengers regard as among the most limited of Earth’s dogmas, nor is he especially partial to Western Christianity. And, Jesus is ‘Christ’ only in the sense that he attained Christ Consciousness, a universal term for enlightenment.
This viewpoint may horrify strict adherents to Christian doctrine. But to his fellow Messengers, Jesus is honored primarily as a master human being who opened the door to Earth’s future spiritual understanding. In various lifetimes, Jesus volunteered to take on the confinement of an earthly body and become an avatar who shared cosmic truths about humankind’s innate ability to attain enlightenment. Because of his intimate association with Earth’s unfoldment, he occupies a position as the highest authority in the hierarchy of beings who shepherd Earth, and his mission at present is to coordinate the galactic effort to oversee Earth through 2012. In this role, he presents himself by the name Yeshua or Sananda.
For three hundred years after the death of Jesus, a fierce debate took place over a crucial question: Can we discover God on our own, or does enlightenment require the services of a church? The Gnostics represented the power of individual faith, but the Bishops of Rome won the debate, eventually replacing the inner quest for truth with strict guidelines for believers on using the teachings in the Bible to find salvation.
During 2012, this same question will be revisited—and the example of Jesus is designed to help us answer the question differently from Biblical times. The power and beauty of fourth-dimensional love must be discovered through experience and self-discovery, not doctrine, and the practice of unconditional love is incompatible with a priesthood which controls beliefs or limits free will. Separation and submission must be replaced by wholeness and connection. This is the lesson Jesus left us to contemplate—and it is the exact lesson of 2012. The Arcturians confirm that Jesus had a special, and secret, mission that would be revealed at the time of the Shift:

Is 2012 Armageddon?
If 2012 proves to be a difficult passage, with large scale geological disruption or major loss of life, many millions of people will believe that Armageddon has arrived. In one way, they will be right: 2012 is a culminating moment for humankind. But it need not be the disaster predicted by the prophets of doom. 2012 is simply a passage from one level of consciousness to the next. Every planet goes through a similar process of evolution. On most planets, the population is aware of the transition and can smooth the process through becoming more unified and loving. On earth, for many reasons, this is less true. There is a division in the population, with a segment of humanity operating under fear and dogma, and a growing segment drawn to love and unity. These contending forces will be the energetic driver of 2012—and determine whether 2012 is more Armageddon –like or less.
Armageddon derives from religious teachings about the End Times. But these are not the End Times. In fact, it is much better to regard 2012 as the beginning of a new leg of the journey for the human soul. The excerpt below gives you an idea of the importance of 2012 to the soul’s progress through the universe.
[from Chapter Two, Welcoming 2012]
The path through 2012 and beyond is a voyage of recovery as well as discovery. The true scope of human history will become known, along with the eventual realization that the story of Earth is a record of souls embarked together on a journey far lengthier than described by the scholars of our present day. I call this story the lost history of Terra, Earth’s original name as supplied by the Messengers.
Understanding this history will turn on how quickly we leave behind our misconception that we are simple creatures of flesh and blood. The Messengers urge us to see ourselves much differently—as beings of light, each inhabited by a soul with a long history and immortal future. For them, the soul—a sustained spark of individuality from the cosmos—is immortal in exactly the sense that we think of that term. In existence since the beginning of the universe, the soul lives forever, grows through choice and experience, faces consequences for its decisions, and carries with it the unique stamp of memories, purposes, desires, and experiences that we call consciousness.
In the Messengers’ view, accepting the reality of the soul is the principle step in recognizing the core purpose of human experience: to learn and evolve. The soul originated in the universal field of love and light, and encoded in its memory is a deep necessity to return to its previous enlightened state. The energies beamed during 2012 help decode those memories and release them into conscious awareness. The soul, far more than our bodies, will be impacted by the forces of the Shift.

What happens after 2012?
First, it is helpful to understand that 2012 is not a ‘one-off’ event. 2012 represents the crossing over point from one set of energies to another, but the process of change has been underway in earnest for over fifty years, and will continue far beyond 2012. This means that 2012 may be noticeable, a kind of high water mark, but change will continue well beyond 2012. You will not awake in January, 2013, and see an entirely different world. It will look the same, and life will, in many respects, seem normal. What will not be normal is the noticeable uptick in the evolutionary impulse and the very apparent desire of the world to unify and address its problems. The problems may be severe—in that sense, you may find life different—but the greatest shift will in consciousness and desire.
The following passages from Welcoming 2012 can help you anticipate the changes ahead.
[from Chapter Three, Welcoming 2012]
Speculating about grand cycles of change that will alter reality and propel us into the ‘fourth dimension’ resembles pop mythology, but the Messengers assure us that scientific processes lie behind the Shift. The new energies change our conscious awareness. Old assumptions fade, a new perspective on life takes hold, and truths long considered unreal, impossible or mystical are revealed.
This does not mean that the world disappears into a fog of nothingness after 2012. Material objects stay visible and solid. Skyscrapers, rivers, and cars inhabit the landscape. Your family will appear no different than at present. But just as the human body replaces its cells every seven years, the energy that underlies the realness of the world will be new, vibrating at a higher frequency and manifesting in novel ways.
The result is that the visible structure of life—in the form of accepted thought or ‘real’ institutions or existing land masses—turns invisible, as the faster vibrations alter the electromagnetic properties of the geometries of thought that bind cellular processes, Earth formations, belief systems, and even personality. Explosive change—physical, mental, and emotional — takes place, allowing the structures that have supported humanity in the third dimension to break apart and be reformed in alignment with the accelerated energies of the next dimension, where love and unity are the primary impulses...

Is the Mayan Calendar accurate?
The Mayans have a history far more ancient than known to modern archaeologists. Evidence indicates that they were originally part of the diaspora that occurred during the destruction of Atlantis. As such, the early Mayan priests carried with them hidden information about the cycles of evolution and planetary changes likely to occur in the future. This knowledge resulted in the Mayan Calendar, which predicts the transformation of consciousness in 2012. The Mayans, however, did not literally predict the end of the world; they predicted the end of the current state of consciousness. And, because the shift in 2012 takes us into a new dimension of thought and awareness, they could not foresee the outline of this new world. The same phenomenon, by the way, has been noted by practitioners of remote viewing, who find the future past 2012 to be quite hazy or black. The world will exist; we just can’t see into the new dimension.
Excerpts from Welcoming 2012 contain more information on prophecy in general, showing how the world’s major religions and native traditions all predict 2012.
[from Chapter Three, Welcoming 2012]
Christianity is steeped with prophecy. In addition to Moses, to whom prophecies were transmitted and recorded in the Torah and interpreted through the Kabbalah, the tradition of Jewish mysticism, those chosen by God to speak for Him included David, Solomon, Samuel, Daniel, Elijah, Elisha, Ezekiel, Jeremiah, Isaiah, and John the Baptist. Jesus himself was a prophet. But for many Christians he is not a channel for God—he is the Son of God or God in human form. In Christianity, prophecy was assigned to the Old Testament, and further revelations were usually forbidden as the work of Satan. This odd demarcation that calls to mind the comment by Ruth Montgomery, herself a well-known, contemporary psychic, who wrote in The World to Come that, “It is helpful to realize that Jesus did not found a religion—that was done by the Bishops.” As you will read later in the book, disbanding these institutional barriers to enlightenment is another keynote sounded by the Messengers.
Other world religions have similar relationships to prophecy, including Islam. In 610 A.D., the Angel Gabriel appeared to Mohammed during a retreat in a cave near Mecca, in Saudi Arabia. Over a period of 23 years, most of the time spent in a trance state, he received the entire works of the Koran, the holy book of the Islamic faith, including a prophecy called “The Final Signs of Islam,” a version of the apocalypse. As quoted by Sylvia Browne, it reads, in part:
The ground will cave in
One in the east,
One in the west, and one in Hejaz, Saudi Arabia.
Fog or smoke will cover the skies for forty days.
The nonbelievers will fall conscious,
While Muslims will be ill…
After a night of three nights,
The following morning the sun will rise in the east.
Hinduism, the third largest religion in the world, is in part based on the Vedas, the channeled poetic hymns from the gods that have become part of the scripture of Hinduism. And before becoming the Buddha, Prince Siddartha sat beneath the Bodhi Tree—the Tree of Enlightenment—asking Mother Earth to confirm the worth of his seeking, until finally the ground quaked and spoke back to him, saying loudly, “I, Earth, bear you witness.” Thus began Buddhism, which itself teaches that another Buddha, Maitreya, “the Best of Men,” will come and explain the Four Truths, the four principles that underlie the Buddhist faith.
The predictions of the Messengers also fit well with native prophecies. Like the Messengers, the assumption that life results from a series of fortuitous accidents is not a point of view that native peoples or pre-scientific civilizations thought very sensible—mainly because they share with the Messengers another pre-scientific assumption: that time is cyclic rather than linear. To the ancients, events moved in a rise and fall, a predictable in-breath and out-breath, the movement of time shaped like a cosine wave of light or sound energy, and closely related to the cycles of the planets and stars. The cycles of time predicted inevitable cycles of human experience—and the predictions sound identical to those of the voices from the stars.

Is our DNA changing?
Yes. 2012 requires activation of more of our DNA. According to present science, we use only three percent of our DNA. That means that thousands of miles of strands of DNA sit silent in our body, doing nothing. Science refers to this as ‘junk’ DNA, but this coded material will one day come alive and activate the full power of the brain and a broader, deeper range of emotions that will combine to turn us into powerful creators of reality.
A short passage from Welcoming 2012 underscores this.
[from Chapter Eleven, Welcoming 2012]
The Messengers point out a crucial difference between 2012 and previous periods of history: The influx of planetary energies is reformulating the core nature of human cellular structure. This is new for the Earth. In the past, enlightenment took place through an act of individual will. This remains true, but as an ultimate act of divine grace, the universe has now beamed toward us the exact frequencies necessary to recode our DNA and accelerate our telepathic and co-creative powers. The short story is that, if we wish to walk the path of Christhood, the universe will help now more than at any time in Earth’s history.
As we know from the Messengers, receptivity to the universe depends on our emotional choices and belief structures, which regulate the impact of the energies flowing into us. By embracing the positive energies of love and higher impulses, we create a more harmonically attuned force-field that attracts higher vibrations and regulates the quality and speed of changes within the cells.
...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Why is there so much disruption and chaos on earth today?
As the intense frequencies of new vibrations stream into earth, every quantum particle begins to take on a higher frequency. That shifts the vibrational quality of every atom and molecule in the body, or in the air and earth. The entire field of consciousness also vibrates at a higher rate. The result: Everything changes, including our thoughts and the terrain under our feet. New awareness leads to fresh desires and political and social unrest; the earth’s urge to realign with the energies of the fourth dimension leads to rumblings and earthquakes. In addition, the natural process of polarization—the divide between those who want to move forward into the next dimension and those who cling to the past—intensifies, setting off philosophical, political, and military battles.
These changes are to be expected during the approach to 2012 and in the years beyond. Until the earth settles into its new status, divisions will continue. The goal for each of us is to remain not just calm, but loving and appreciative of the deep changes around us. They connote growth and advancement, even though earth and its society appear to be crumbling. This is winter; there will be regrowth.
Understanding polarity is crucial to riding out the currents of 2012 without succumbing to fear or despair. Plus, polarity helps us become more loving, in ways that align us with the future of earth. This excerpt from the book explains:
[from Chapter Four, Welcoming 2012]
The power of the two kinds of love is critical to Earth’s future. At the brink of 2012, the two great poles of love are, in a sense, arrayed against one another across the planet. The polarization of our planet is visible in the form of war-like behavior, religious fanaticism, or governmental control, versus those who approach others with compassion, service, understanding, and a loving spirituality. This is the visible aspect of the Choice before us. In metaphysical literature, this fork in the road is referred to as the Dividing of the Way or the Dark Night of the Soul. We have arrived at the fork, and understanding how the intense polarity sets up a stark choice for both sides can help you remain calm and insightful as the two forces face each other.
The Messengers urge us to understand two key points about love and polarity. First, polarization—the impulse toward a new way of living and thinking at precisely the time when fear and control reach the zenith of possibility on our planet—is an intentional act on the part of the universe. Polarity forces us onward to discover love at the higher frequencies. Ra explains:
The purpose of polarity is to develop the potential do to work. This the great characteristic of those, shall we say, experiments which have evolved since the concept of The Choice was appreciated. Work is done far more efficiently and with greater purity, intensity, and variety by a voluntary searching of mind/body/spirit/complexes for the lessons of third and fourth densities.
Second, polarity helps us discover compassion by helping us see that evil does not exist. In a free will universe, no one makes the wrong choice. A service-to-self orientation does not elicit judgment from the Messengers. Such judgment violates the premise of unconditional love. To serve the purposes of the universe, unconditional love must overcome self-centered love. But anger or judgment do not transmute self-centered love. Only a deep orientation toward compassion and acceptance of all voices in the universe, even negative, eventually overcomes the orientation to self.

Are UFO’s and 2012 related?
UFO’s are simply the partially visible evidence that we are not alone in the universe—and that many civilizations from other planets in the galaxy regularly do fly-overs of earth. Some do so out of curiosity or to conduct probes; others work full-time at helping us transition through 2012. All of the other civilizations are well aware of 2012 and our current transformation. Every planet, in fact, goes through a similar transition when it reaches the end of its third dimensional experience.
Whether UFO’s will become more prominent or visible close to 2012 is unknown, but it is certain that in the next several decades we can expect an open, publicized, irrefutable visit from someone from the stars. It will happen when they deem us ready to accept their presence and reality.
It may be comforting to know that earth’s shift into advanced status is of interest throughout the galaxy. For that reason, we are—and have been since the beginning—receiving help from many sources. In Welcoming 2012, I use over 40 sources of information that identifies the civilizations and entities working for our success in 2012.
Below is an excerpt about our helpers. I call it a pep talk.
[from Chapter Nine, Welcoming 2012]
Given the looming challenges of 2012, a pep talk may be timely. Managing our personal and collective evolution over the next few years requires change on a scale unprecedented in the last 75,000 years. Completing the task without help is difficult. Fortunately, the Messengers don’t expect us to act alone. Vast forces—a great army of light workers and a gathering of royals wielding powers much greater than the Dark Lords—have assembled on our behalf. The numbers of beings dwarf any gathering on Earth, and their sole mission is to bring more love to the planet. Without this collective effort, we could not succeed. According to the Arcturians:
The gigantic problem with which you are faced in making the transition into the New Age indeed is underestimated by most souls in embodiment on Earth. There is no way that you could do this yourselves, in the present situation and state of mind that the planet is experiencing. There is no way that you could survive and bring the beloved Terra to her destiny in the dignity that she so deserves.
The cast of helpers comes from far-flung regions of the Milky Way galaxy, including beings from various planetary civilizations who voluntarily settled Terra and became part of Earth’s grand experiment, then departed at some point back to their home planets. Along with this group, another army of wandering souls committed to love and light has reincarnated onto Earth to join the effort to shift the energies of Earth. You may be one of them.
...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Are there evil aliens?
This question relates to the question above about earth as an experiment. The unfoldment of earth was hampered by alien civilizations who were not committed to unconditional love. In that sense, yes, ‘evil’ aliens. Even today, some of the UFO activity is not friendly. But this is offset by a much great force of extra-terrestrials who protect and support earth. Known as the Confederation in Service to Love and Light (or similar terminology), they counter efforts by others to control our thinking or shape our consciousness in the direction of separateness. Also, there is nothing in this universe that is truly evil; it is entirely a matter of separation between those who love unconditionally or those who love themselves for their own advancement. It’s that simple and clear—and the whole dispute is eventually resolved in favor of unconditional love. For full evolutionary advancement to the highest ranks, you need to be a loving being.
...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Does 2012 relate to Atlantis?
Atlantis was an advanced civilization destroyed by greed, lust for power, and destructive weapons. Sound familiar? It should, because 2012 is another choice-point for humanity, in which earth’s population has the opportunity to choose unconditional love rather than separation. This is the core decision that will affect our collective future.
On a personal level, this also affects each of us in terms of our own soul growth and evolution. Many of us lived during Atlantean times, and fought and died on one side or the other. The choices we made then still resonate with us today—and it was our intention during this incarnation to choose love rather than fear.
The excerpt below will tell you more about the critical choice each of us faces in 2012—and why it matters to you:
[from Chapter Ten, Welcoming 2012]
The great question, as the Shift culminates, is whether a critical mass of humanity will move in the direction of less judgment, greater tolerance, more self-awareness, a passionate desire to serve, and the intentional practice of love—or allow certain upheaval to go forward. Every tool necessary for success is at our disposal. But each of us, on our own, must decide how to ready ourselves for the fourth dimension.
Practicing a fourth-dimensional way of life begins with rethinking your beliefs to match the ways of the future. The Messengers tell us all the conditions necessary to seize the power of consciousness have been put in place by the Shift, giving you the capability to manipulate energy for healing, learning, and spiritual advancement. Picturing yourself as a co-creator living in an intelligent universe will empower you to function as part of the field of consciousness of the universe.
This is how the Messengers view us. Ra refers to humans as indistinguishable from the divine essence of the waves of energy washing through us, telling us: “The mind/body/spirit complex is not a machine. It is rather what you call a tone poem.”
Faith depends on recognizing that you are on a journey that will not end at death. At your core, an underlying, indestructible field of energy, the soul, carries your memories and awareness from body to body, through many lives, tying you to the Source and providing a timeless vehicle for evolution. Drawn by the sheer power of love, the soul moves irresistibly back toward the Source, until its energies harmonize with the ultimate compassion at the center of creation, completing the journey through the lessons of this universe.
...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
How do I face 2012 with love instead of fear?
For all of us, this is the most difficult challenge. Even if you understand 2012 and its positive outcome, the path forward is certain to bring worry and fear. There is good reason for this: As humans, we are programmed to defend ourselves against the elements and forces of destruction. But 2012 asks us to rise above these fears and ride the currents of transformation with equanimity and poise.
There is only one avenue to mustering the necessary courage to face 2012: The path through the heart. The heart is designed to guide you through the shift by helping you stabilize your energies and engage the world with as much love as possible. Recent research on the heart gives you the exact method for this. The heart responds positively to gratitude and appreciation. The more you stay within this realm, and share it through close, caring relationships, joyful laughter, and a deep appreciation for the universe’s ways, you will be fine.
The deep appreciation of the process of releasing fear and embracing love can be seen in the passage below from Welcoming 2012.
[from Chapter Seven, Welcoming 2012]
…Stretching the capacities of Earth’s population for love and compassion is designed to be a painful process, much like limbering up unused muscles. Our present world is destined—designed, really—to fall apart. Neither religion nor inspirational quotes, not even the words of the Messengers, will calm us completely and relieve our fears during the stormy seas of the Shift. Simple methods, such as attaching ourselves to new beliefs, or practicing the power of positive thought, or being a ‘loving’ person, will not make us feel safe.
We must make the inner journey. The Shift is the ultimate intervention to alter us at a visceral, energetic level. As the foundations of life tremble with greater intensity and promise to fail altogether, concerns for our safety and security, along with other emotions—grief, anger, despair, and doubt—will upend our psyches, surfacing both negative and positive energies. The Messengers help us understand that the duality between love and fear has been designed into our evolutionary process exactly for this reason: To drive us in the direction of unity and the Law of One.
…Because Earth energies created a duality between the realm of spirit and the immediate reality of the body, Earth evolved into a highly polarized planet. For each pole of emotion and thought, we see its vibratory twin, and thus experience deeply the negative and positive aspects of each. Since Earth operated through the principle of polarity from the beginning, our path through the third-dimensional experience has been one of believing in opposites, unable see the oneness behind the energies of a universe based on unity.
This was our intended path, designed as an experiment to determine if we could overcome polarity and discover love—a great accomplishment in the eyes of the universe. But surmounting the polarity of love and fear is an enormous challenge. Now hardwired into us, we are not sure whether our deepest impulses make us good or evil, blessed or doomed…With the Shift, however, comes resolution of polarities and opposites. In essence, the Shift forces us to focus on our shadow side and allow love to scour negative emotions from our being. ..Think of each negative or positive e-motion as having two different geometrical structures. Put together, they will form a new structure, a new and higher form of e-motions that resonate with wholeness. This is a process of acceptance. Once accepted, the polarities fade.

How can I help create a positive future for earth?
Evolution takes place both on an individual and a collective level. On the collective level, our cumulative consciousness—the sum of the seven billion residents of earth—is registered in the electromagnetic grid that surrounds and permeates the planet. Think of the gird as the aura of the planet. It’s shade, hue, and vibratory level reflects our state of consciousness. Our goal is fuel the grid with love and help it vibrate at the high level necessary for the planet to accommodate the incoming energies of the shift.
The grid responds to unconditional love; the more each of us individually commits to unconditional love, the higher the rate of vibration. It becomes the barometer of our progress through the days of 2012.
Currently, there are initial efforts to describe and measure the grid (see the Resources page of the website). If you can accept the existence of the gird and intentionally beam the energies of love into it, you will help—dramatically—to make earth’s passage into the next dimension as swift and easy as possible.
Several passages from Welcoming 2012 explain the significance of the grid.
[from Chapter Twelve, Welcoming 2012]
Foremost, the Messengers advise that we take stands on matters crucial to Earth’s well-being without adding to the negativity of the planet. The familiar pattern of hypercritical, ego-driven opposition, threats of reprisal, and the ultimate weapon — justifiable warfare — disappears in the fourth dimension. In today’s world, it is usual to generate strong emotions in support or opposition to policies or people as we engage the issues of the day. These e-motions, because they invoke the energies of judgment, negatively impact the planetary grid. As satisfying as righteousness feels, it does not serve Earth’s cause any longer. To escape any further infusion of negative energies into our world, our conduct needs to be impeccable.
This is the model of personal action bestowed to us by Gandhi, Martin Luther King, and other non-violent leaders—and the reason non-violence is a prominent thread in our collective consciousness. Non-violence is a fourth-dimensional tool that takes into account the emotions behind our statements and views—and it is a tool we will need to master in the next few decades. This is a challenge. Taking action in defense of the planet while remaining committed to unconditional love will test our ability to act with love and maintain our spiritual integrity.
From the viewpoint of the Messengers, human consciousness and Earth’s magnetics are inseparable. Moreover, since our creative energies co-mingle with the grid, we, in essence, determine the state of the grid. Always, we retain the choice of energizing the grid with the vibration of love—or with vibrations linked to fear, division, and stasis. The more love injected into the grid, however, the more it will mirror our advancing state of consciousness and attract information appropriate for our evolution…
…During a dimensional Shift, the grid takes on crucial significance. Increasingly, it absorbs the incoming flux of new galactic vibrations beamed from the Great Central Sun and Milky Way. The faster pulses of the incoming dimension destabilize the existing grid, activating a phase shift so that the grid will eventually rebalance itself at a higher octave. Throughout this process of realignment, every species, as well as the atomic structures of landmasses, oceans, and all other objects considered inanimate, is impacted.
Into this unstable process is added the vibrations from the race inhabiting the planet. In our case, humans, as the chief species on Earth (along with the whales and dolphins, our ancient cousins) are most attuned to the leap in the resonant frequencies of the planet. Along with this gift comes the prime responsibility for helping rebalance the planetary grid.
