Intuitive Thinking: Pattern Within
by Karen Johnson
Inside us there is a deep fear that may have us grasping with an imaginary or illusionary opponent that doesn’t exist except within the battlefields of our own mind.


We begin by taking small, sure steps moving us forward beyond the barriers of our own self-imposed fear.


This can short circuit our ability to manifest the kind of present and future that we want to exist in. Instead, we end up clawing our way around this non-existent drama that we continually, inadvertently perhaps, breathe life into.


As fast as we begin to change and modify our behaviours, new behaviours and thought patterns open us to a whole different layer of consciousness. What once dictated our movements on all levels has now been peeled away, and we find ourselves standing within a brand new world.


The funny thing is it’s not like we can just simply rest on our laurels and experience this new way of being because as soon as we acclimatize we find ourselves being pulled towards another level. Once we reach one peak there is the stage of celebration in reaching this goal but once that has set in there is something that keeps moving us forward toward higher and higher levels of consciousness.



STAGES

Drawing on our repository of experiences we soon discover that what is unfolding around us is the dawning of a new stage in our own experience. We are in agreement that we have consciously chosen to be here at this point in time. We have constructed certain circumstances that will either help us self-destruct or build us up so that we can reach the next stage of our continual evolvement.


As with everything, we have the ability to exercise free choice and that is what is steering our course. We are no longer merely elementary students looking up with shiny faces for rudimentary pieces from our teachers. We are full fledged beings who are in allegiance with a force that is greater than us.


We are here to partake in a banquet with the planets and stars and all the beings that inhabit this planet to create and converse in some very specific energetic dialogues. Much of what is transpiring is happening in very subtle ways. There are energetic patterns at play that will modify the behaviour and actions of specific individuals and the entire stratosphere.


Some of what we are talking about today is really utilizing the principles and forces of molecular science and others are embracing the teachings of higher knowledge. Some of this higher knowledge is being handed down in almost a package to certain individuals and groups that are emerging on the planet today.


There is a new way of learning and taking in information and we need to encourage individuals to keep enhancing and deepening these functions that already exist within them. There is a big fear of the unknown and sometimes the unexplored. Although many say they want to be a pioneer, there is a fear deep within that causes them to withdraw and almost banish themselves from this group.



Unfolding Dramas

The commonality here is for people to remember the call. The call is a coming together of soul forces to meet a need and a niche that our current level of consciousness has created.


There is a fear of pushing the envelope too far and perhaps creating a spotlight on oneself. What if others do not know how to meet me at this juncture? What if others choose to see what I am bringing with indifference or rejection? That might mean my way of thinking is unseemly or at the very least unpopular. What if others cannot see my vision? Does that make my vision invalid? What if others don’t agree with me or ridicule me, can I bear that? All of this can create a story, a barrier to moving forward out of a fear of not being accepted by others, because of this we sometimes put our dreams on hold.


We create the drama. To keep this almost play-like theatrical drama alive we are given many opportunities to simply cut the cord and walk away. Instead, many of us continually choose to live this lower ego existence and keep pushing it forward so that we begin to experience a total loss of reality and the knowledge of a better way of living in a better world.


There is a simplicity to living but we get bogged down in layers that no longer really fit who we are. We have forgotten who we are and how to live honestly with integrity and discernment. We’ve become players in our own psychological and metaphysical drama and it’s like we continually keep living these dramas and have lost the thread to a very key part of the story and that key element I am referring to is ourselves.


We no longer know who we are or where we are going. We have forgotten that what is going on around us is just a piece of the story. Losing sight of the treasure within we have lost the vision of ourselves and the greater aspects of who we really are.



Inside Out

The devil is among us. He is not some evil looking being. He comes dressed in many different ways. A common approach to denoting his presence is to feel our own inner landscape. The devil that we are putting the spotlight on is not some foreign perpetrator but an aspect of who you are. It can bring with it temptation, hardship and almost an abrasive way of living life.


What you like least about yourself or others gives you a hint to what is happening on your internal levels. If you find it difficult to trust, forgive, to just let go and live in a free way, more than likely if you put the focus inside you will hear or experience the same things going on. If you find it difficult to communicate with others and express how you feel, to express love and kindness towards others more than likely this is a deficiency within you and more than likely you are unable to do so with yourself.


We can also inadvertently draw certain energetic forces towards ourselves. These forces can simply be entities or energies that are parasitic in nature and feed upon these aspects which have a tendency to leave us in a vulnerable position and allow this type of energy access to our energetic bodies. This can create a gateway that opens us to an invasion of unwanted energies.



New Dimensions

There can be some very rigid and strict disciplines that unconsciously exist within you and you need to discover a way or a key that allows you to unlock the mystery of who you are and how you negotiate and operate in these inner climates. This will begin the process of advancing knowledge that needs to come to the surface and be a much more conscious resource for you to call upon.


We may have an internal loop going on that sometimes prevents us from exercising the ‘simple love humanity and the world around you’ guidelines that have been handed down. What we don’t understand is if we’re unable to love others, ourselves and the natural world we are somehow creating and propelling a different force out into the cosmos that will have repercussions for our generation and the generations to come.


It is a simple movement, yet for some it feels an unattainable goal. There are so many barricades in place that they have somehow removed themselves from this special state of being. If you are able to access this state of being so many riches are handed to you. A wellness of being that you may never have experienced yet, a way of connecting with individuals and the population at large. There are no barriers here. There is simplicity a certain state of symmetry and a certain state of alertness and being-ness on a deep soul level.


No more need be said other than we create who we are and what we experience. And this is being said in a metaphysical fashion and needs to be pondered on in a metaphysical way. What opens up to you is a full scope and breadth of the world that will take your breath away.

Author

Karen Johnson, CHt. MHt. founder of Awakening Heart & Soul is an internationally renowned and respected expert in the field of Human Potential Development an area where she has been a leader for the past decade.


A well known Spiritual Teacher, Certified Master Hypnotherapist, Past Life Regression Therapist, Specialized Kinesiologist, Energy Medicine Practitioner and Metaphysical Healer. Balancing her private practice with teaching, research and writing, she has published numerous articles and is in the process of writing her first book.


Karen believes and teaches that intuition or psychic abilities are inherent within us all. This sixth sense or creative spirit can be used as a source of power. Karen guides her clients towards opening up and accessing this wisdom: expanding their lives and realizing long lost goals.


Also running an international Intuition Consultant business, she consults and mentors individuals and small businesses. Her mandate is to empower and enlighten the individual.


Diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 1987, she overcame MS and discovered her own innate healing abilities. Throughout her healing journey, she encountered many profound spiritual experiences propelling her to look at the widely accepted belief that healing takes a long time.

She firmly believes that healing can be immediate, if we are willing for it to happen. She has chosen to concentrate her work on helping others heal: spiritually, emotionally and physically.


A guiding principle of her work is recognizing that we are governed by universal law. These are the basic tenets that we all follow and are the foundation of life.

Continually challenging the boundaries and moving beyond the status quo...


Remember, any journey always begins with that first step. We have all the tools we need, the answers are always within us; we simply need to relearn what we've always known but somehow forgotten...
