THE NEW BEGINNINGS OF AUGUST...THE LIGHT RETURNS
Karen Bishop
August 1, 2008

Greetings!

There is wonderful news to report regarding the total solar eclipse and new moon. I believe that it will have a positive and important impact on many of us on the planet who are here to serve, assist in the spiritual evolution of the planet, and thus result in a great support for continuing on with all of our special contributions, gifts, and talents. And on August 16th (or 17th) a partial lunar eclipse and full moon will occur. I will be writing more about the lunar significance when it draws nearer.

A full solar eclipse (and new moon) will occur on August 1, 2008, and although it will not be visible to experience in every geographical area, it will affect us all none-the-less. The solar eclipse occurring at this juncture in our spiritual evolutionary path will highlight and support a new beginning with the end of a certain amount of resistance from opposing forces.

Meaning what exactly? If you have been trying to move forward with your purpose, project, or much of anything else for that matter, the advent of the total solar eclipse will assist you in paving a much more clear and uncluttered path.

The sun will be blocked for a short while. As strange as this may sound, energetically it means that this will stop the flow of energy to those facets that have been allowed to run rampant of late, creating unpleasant feelings and experiences for many of us while we try to make progress, or create our dreams, desires, projects, and next phases near and dear to us. It will mark the end of “the old.”

The solar eclipse and new moon will mark an important turning point. The energies which have been in the fore-front of late, or the lower vibrating and denser energies, will now have a “cease” to their power or in other words to their ability to be able to run loose with attempts at bringing down the light through their old ways, at best.

With the new moon and the sun now starting anew after this blockage, it will mean a new beginning for most of us. And this new beginning will be fresh and clear, just like a new start without all the resistance energy of late.

Before new and supporting energies arrive, we usually feel a “pull out” of supports or of light. When this phase occurs, the darker or denser energies really run rampant. It is as if the teacher has left the classroom and the class is really taking advantage. Well, the “teacher” has now returned and things will now begin to change. The higher ways and the light will now be able to take charge and make their presence known and respected.

As always, we needed to give enough time for things to adjust, come into place, and into alignment. These waiting or aligning periods can be challenging at times. If you are one who has felt that you were being ignored, disrespected, taken advantage of, road-blocked, boxed in with seemingly nowhere to go, having things taken over by a lower vibrating element that seemed to know far less than you, then get ready for a change.

The advent of the new moon and solar eclipse will change all of this.

For those especially tapped in or highly sensitive, physical manifestations could be felt of late as a build-up of pressure, abdominal bloating and a feeling of expansion, short fuses and an inability to tolerate lower vibrating energies which seemed to be so ever present everywhere, intestinal pressure and cramping with a need to relieve one-self often, restless sleeping, and even feelings of futility.

You may have felt as though there was nowhere remotely comfortable left to connect to, that everything around you was from a very old reality and making no sense to you now (or ever!), that what was in charge or at the fore-front did not know what in the world it was doing, that things had gone as far as they could go and then some, or perhaps even as though you could not take part in any way with much of anything. Totally stuck. And perhaps even repulsed by those lower vibrating energies surrounding you, as this is what the ascension process continues to create...higher vibrating energies with an inability to tolerate lower vibrating ones.

There needed to be enough time for things to find their new and better aligned energetic homes. And when we experience suffering, we really become clear about what it is that is the most important to us. The solstice of June knocked much out of its groove, much then needed to find a new energetic home, and even much within us which vibrated lower was released to some other home, far, far away from where we are now vibrating. And in this way, we might have wondered who we were and what we were now supposed to be doing.

Rock bottoms needed to be reached in order for many to finally be willing to make a change. And for many of those bearing much light, it could be challenging to be prohibited from helping. We had to be blocked from saving others and holding up the light as much needed to fall…..to fall into its new and rightful place. And even if you were one who was not personally affected by the bulldozing energies of the summer solstice, their effects could still be felt as so many of our loved ones were indeed affected. Just standing out in a vast expanse of nature could result in feeling these intense and unnerving energies!

In this way, lightbearers were almost stripped of their power and along with this, much of who they thought they were. But we decided on this course of action, as it would create the most change, and great change was now needed as things were finally right for moving forward….and we wanted to take as many with us as possible!

New connections needed to be made before we could progress further. And when we realize what is dear to us and means the most, we are then able to connect to the purer and simpler things which will always remain.

The door has now opened to more new beginnings. Many of the steps have been fulfilled, although creating great challenges for many. But in the end, we will find ourselves ever so much closer to our Heaven on Earth.

With the advent of the solar eclipse and new moon, a new chapter will be opened and much of the old will cease to hold any of its old power. We will again feel support, we will have more to connect to and hold onto, and the road before us will be much clearer.

1. Her ascension primer was good as well - Thanks!

I agree with and resonate with this portion in spades. I see this happening on many fronts to many people and have felt it was a positive thing even though it may create some negatives between people it's an important part of integrating being a human being on a spiritual path.

"Letting Go Through Intolerance And Apathy

One thing I have said over and over for several years is that
the higher realms are not what you might think. Much of what
we have been taught or read about is highly inaccurate.
Although this is not a simple process, basically it all boils down
to simplicity and how energy responds and interacts with itself.
There are higher and lower forms of vibrating energy creating
things that feel good and things that do not. So then, there is
no meaning to anything. Meaning is simply what we choose to
place on any particular manifestation. Some things may feel
good to one person according to how they interpret them, and
may feel very unpleasant to another. A rule of thumb, then,
might be that things either feel good or they feel bad. It's that
simple.

As we begin to vibrate higher and higher we become less and
less of a match to what has been created so far on this planet
and also to any lower vibrating aspects of other human
behaviors and realities. One might think that as we become
more spiritual we embody a great compassion, understanding,
and tolerance at higher levels than we ever have before. But
this is not the case. As we progress through ascension and
begin to vibrate higher and higher, we find ourselves becoming
highly intolerant of any lower vibrating energies. We simply
cannot be in their presence for very long and we may even
become angry and frustrated with them as well.

There is a method to this madness. As mentioned in earlier
sections of this book, there is a hierarchy to energetic levels
and dimensions. When we reach higher realities, it is very
difficult to reside or spend time in the lower realities. We are
simply not a match to them anymore. This response also has
other benefits. The intolerance greatly encourages us to create
more on the outside that matches how we are vibrating,
feeling and being on the inside. If our outside reality feels
downright awful, we will most assuredly be inspired to save
ourselves through our need to feel better by creating higher
ways of living and being. And by not tolerating and refusing to
be a part of the old reality, as we literally cannot stomach it
anymore, it makes us literally refuse to participate, therefore
withdrawing any energy of support. If we do not become
involved in something and negate it, it cannot survive because
there is no energy to make it real and alive. It will simply
cease to be as it will not be residing in anyone's consciousness.

Through this intolerance we are also being very direct. As we
progress into higher vibrating human beings, we find that we
can no longer beat around the bush, sit by and watch, or take
a long winding road to get anywhere. Higher energy moves in
a straight shot. It does not go here and there, make excuses
and support friends and family even though they are in
unhealthy situations, or sit blindly by. It is simple and direct.
No wishy washy uncertainty and passivity. The time is up for
tolerating the old and for waiting. It's the higher way or no
way. At some level we know this, and at times can find
ourselves addressing the lower vibrations very directly. In this
way, this is a higher form of love. It involves an inability to
support the lower vibrations in anything. We are actually being
supportive and loving in that we are now supporting the
highest ways through this intolerance. We are actually being
spiritual warriors of higher truth and greatly helping others.

In the higher realms we create through a partnership with
Source and as we are becoming more and more of Source
ourselves, we must connect much more deeply now in order to
create the higher ways. During these years of ascension, it can
appear that we are getting absolutely nowhere. It may seem
that nothing ever goes our way or that we are receiving very
little support for getting what we want.

This is really not the case. We do not want to create things
that are not of a higher vibration or that will no longer fit in the
near future. In other ways, we cannot create from ego in the
higher realms. When we are not getting what we want, it is
usually because we won't be in that situation or reality very
soon, or that we are not yet ready. If there is something that
you really feel you must have, then you are not ready to
receive it. It is ironic that we always get what we want when
we no longer want it. What is happening here is that we have
lost our attachment, which places us in a position for perfect
creating. In addition, we are not then, creating from our ego.
This is all part of the ascension process.

Through it all, we can get pretty discouraged at times. When
we get discouraged and let down over and over again, and feel
that all our dreams have shattered, we become apathetic. This
is perfect. It puts us into a space of letting go. We simply do
not care anymore. This makes us let go and release the
energy of attachment. We are then residing in neutral energy
with no agendas and this allows much more of Source to enter.
And of course, allows us to let go of many of the illusions."

2. Thank you so much for posting this, OB. It was late by the time that I...

got the E-mail, and I really had to get to bed. I hoped that I'd remember to post the primer part today; now I don't have to! :)

4. Even MORE Wow!!! A lesson for me to learn, too.

Okay, I gotta go buy the primer now..I haven't as of yet.
Thank you SO MUCH for posting this!!! I just learned a very valuable lesson. I'm the one always pushing him to be more tolerant. Seems he's been guided correctly all along, and I need to listen more and talk less.
Meow!! Shhhhhhhhhhh.........
*collapses in more giggles*

3. OH MY LIGHT. Wow.

That is *EX-AC-TLY* what husband has been going through, down to the cramps! Wow wow wow.
Just when I think what she is saying is not really applying to me & us, she hits me over the head..or the universe does,one.
I can't stop giggling.

5. OMG finally an answer!

MG Jr. has complained of stomach aches ever since he had the stomach virus that laid him flat at the end of MAY. After a couple of useless visits to the pediatrician and two weeks on low-dose Prevacid that did nothing, I finally tweaked to the idea that maybe he can't tell the difference between stomach aches from illness and stomach cramps from intestinal...urges, let's say. NOW I get it. Poor little booger's been a victim of our shifting times. He's always had a problem with constipation--it's a family thing--but he's never complained about stomach "owwies" before, so he's getting a hefty dose of whatever-it-is. Now, hopefully, his body will start to right itself.

Solar eclipse and new moon on Lammas. Ahhhh life is good.

On edit: Just want to be clear that I'm not leaving his tummy troubles to chance--I'm also making sure he's getting more high-fiber foods and plenty of water. :hi:
