the fire at Notre Dame in Paris caused a lot of emotions, identifications and projections. Now the tumult and overwhelm are over, movements are slowing down, what is dense and heavy is settling
back to ourselves

to make a herbal tea
we throw a handful of plants in water at room temperature and we heat the water to the required temperature (it depends on the plants we use). The active components of the plants are released progressively as the heat increases and they add gradually their specific qualities to the complex mixture. Once the desired temperature is reached, we let steep and flavours intensify and harmonise with one another until perfect balance, then the beverage is ready to be enjoyed. We don’t keep the plants (unless a second infusion is possible), once their function is accomplished, they are composted and return to the Earth

in the case of Notre Dame, the element of surprise, the intensity of the show and the powerful symbol generated huge empathy and an abundance of generosity (one can question their purpose though). The dreadful fire brought to light beautiful human qualities and prove that we are capable of true solidarity. A sign of awakening consciousnesses !

what if the purpose of the fire was awakening (personal and global) ?

a disruption, reminding me that the fire that doesn’t burn, my consciousness, lives in the heart of my inner city, and that remembering who I AM, implies that is up to me to burn all that clutter in me which veils the essence of my BEING

if the splendour of my inner building, my HUMAN BEING, is restored, the cathedral can be rebuilt (or not !)

to make a floral essence
we are in presence of several pure consciousnesses: the ones of the flower and of the alchemist, of the Sun and of water. Encounter, communion. The alchemist puts the flowers in a big transparent bowl filled with spring water, the Sun does the rest. Silence, void-fullness, synergy. The quality of the essence extracted reflects the level of consciousness and state of being of the alchemist, the consciousness of the rest of the team is stable by nature

everything hinges, therefore, on how I contribute to the global balance

a higher level of consciousness requires a higher level of consistency
my negligence, my avoidance impact on any situation and the global picture of the planet, this is my part

following the powerful reminder of Notre Dame, to replicate the shape without transforming the substance would creating a (spiritual, aesthetic, historic…) veneer and perpetuate a world that non longer exists (due to my identification and attachment)

unless my BEING is really truthful and attests its essence in its relationships with all that is, the rebuilt nave will be an empty shell, because hatching as already taken place

may what happens through me testify to who I AM

in memory of Notre Dame of Paris
15 April 2019

the movement of fire is ascending
it consumes what it touches
and lifts it to the next state of being

transcendance

fire operates transmutation, the alchemical process
that marks the end of a cycle and the beginning of another one

death and rebirth (on another plane)

what was there is no longer and won’t be there again
no replica can bring back the past, the treasure in within

experience

the old is gone, the new is appearing
the urge to restore form, beauty, to preserve history, to honour tradition, spirituality masks (eludes ?) the power of a global initiation

the forest of the nave is gone
but the crown of thorns is rescued (symbol of the passion of Christ)

irony ? attachment to suffering ?

the return of Light, resurrection (Easter) in the opencast cross of Notre Dame
opening

a vision and a choice (personal and collective)

• embrace the new, transmute the old, navigate new realities and acknowledge who you are and what life on Earth is about
  
• or click the repeat button

first spring day today 
why don’t you go idle ?

allowing space

being

inner and outer reality mirror each other 

your inner weather (moods, state of body-heart-mind) alters your vision of reality
like when you are worried and our inner movie feeds any worst case scenario you can think of 
like when you are short fused, due to rubbing irritation, internalised anger or else, and anything vaguely resembling fire or the colour red triggers you
like when you are stuck and the entire world should be put on hold, because you can’t move on

perception is projection, by default

even when you are completely present and focused, what you perceive of reality is a projection of your inner world

you see what you expect to see, consciously or not
like when you read reality through your favourite grid and see an evidence or bad omen in everything

you don’t get a full picture, but only what you are aware of
like when you overlook big chunks of reality, which don’t fit in your box or could question it

your vision goes through the funnel of your limiting belief system, which shrinks and colours anything you get in touch with
like when based on your own feelings, you assume what someone else is going through must be tough

living in the now is not enough

it doesn’t stop you from projecting your reality into your world, unless you take off your sunglasses, aka the layers of stuff that darken your perception

living in the now doesn’t save you the trouble of sorting out your own issues, on the contrary, the necessity of inner work becomes so obvious

as long as you hold on to your projections (remaining attachment to old paradigm)
your perception is altered
your understanding is programmed
your creation is fake

what if we faced reality through void and stillness ?

practically, nothing,    n.o.t.h.i.n.g                           pure awareness and consciousness
like the empty space within and in-between things where anything is possible

in a human shape we are not pure undefined all encompassing consciousness, we are defined and equipped specifically for the tasks at hand, instead

pure awareness and consciousness, then

this quality and this level allow us to touch pure consciousness (within and around), letting our instrument resonate with it and express itself in its unique way

great transformation

big changes happen in small steps, some of them hardly noticeable
shaking, a crack                    or is it the other way around ?
a crack, shaking
yet shapes tend to perpetuate themselves and regenerate
again and again

an inner urge more and more disruptive
frictions, tensions, frustrations           burst !
release, things settle down, dead calm or not, maturation           patience, resilience
etc.
until what cannot continue gives in, breakup

twilight, for a long time

some light at last, zero point !

an impulse, light and joyful, obvious
another phase begins, momentum
nomadic life, inconsistant, following the wind, without a goal or destination
completely open, undefined

some more light, there it is !

drop-off point, a whole other life, complete reboot, change of plane
start over
infinite possibilities
dreaming
discovering
creating
manifesting
here now, every moment

that’s how Marcus and I have split up, I left my paradise in Jouanvins, Ardèche, and after a few months of wanderings around the world, I have now settled in Paris, at the Butte aux Cailles

my new address is at rue de l’Espérance, in Paris, France
espérance means hope, aptly named, isn’t ?

… and stars in your eyes

an insistent inner demand, as we continue to unwrap the tremendous package received on 21 December at the winter solstice

access the bigger picture
embrace further
until you can feel great peace

be totally still in the now
truly there
and feel the joy

happy new year 2019 !

you can allow your grey matter to relax, give it a chance to let go
put it to complete rest
the benefit will be immediate 

rather than the mind, the matter of the brain itself can become loose

mental activity is put on hold, of course
alertness and inner awareness as well

with the grey matter, your entire body can rest and reset
it’s such a treat !

listening to the recording won’t be difficult
but letting physical stillness settle down may be more of a challenge
sometimes you will catch yourself daydreaming, like we do on a beach

sounds of the waves, to be listened to again and again

of unity and wholeness
you leave nothing aside
you remove nothing

you take it all instead, you are all that

you dare being different
ambivalent
multiple

without complying or bending
you stand there
you let your essence and the unspeakable
your vulnerability
your power
shine through

early this morning, in the oblique light of the first sun rays I could feel
the peaceful enthusiasm of the particles in the unified field of consciousnsss
random-non random mouvements
singular and united

enthusiasm, literally in presence of God, inspired by God, then ONE and WHOLE

outburst of joy, infinite gratitude
galvanised !

welcome in wonderland !

Alice stands in a circular antechamber with many doors, there are doors all around her, and she wonders

          which one shall I open ?
          how do I know that it is the right one for me ?

depending on her mood and state of mind she may
hang out there for days on end and go on saying

           if I do this, it will result in that… and inevitably cause that … which will …
           but I can’t possibly not do it, because if I don’t, it will …

covering the open field of possibilities in layers of dust, called projections, patterns, habits and beliefs  which she perpetuates out of loyalty to ordinary programming

alternatively she may open a door randomly and jump into anything, only to end the torment of having to make that crucial and seemingly final choice and after short lived relief feel unsure again and rely on the divine providence or the universe to deliver against all odds what she hasn’t really opted for

or else she could just gaze or procrastinate or meditate and wait until something happens, which she will deliberately interpret as a clear sign that the universe wants (or doesn’t want) her to experience something
nonsense!

in reality, when Alice stands in the antechamber she can open any door at all, even randomly, all she needs to do is make up her mind
and each time she opens a door and crosses the threshold, an entire world pops open out of the blue, packed with wonders and countless possibilities

as she walks in, she goes on an adventure in this open space and if it is not fun or if it doesn’t suit her, she can change her mind any moment and end the game immediately

all she needs to do then is return to the antechamber
and with the door closing the world that had manifested will collapse instantly and she is back to the realm of pure potential, symbolised by the many doors

this is 5D magic!

all doors take Alice to her Self, no matter which route she takes, every single situation, event or encounter is a face to face with herself, whether she is aware of it or not

the evolutionary journey is hers, it is up to her to play the games she likes and drop those the doesn’t likeat any point in time and space, she can take another route, start anew, make other choices, again and again
she can even embark on a complex journey with several doors opening and intricately intertwined stories evolving simultaneously (that’s what she does most of the time)

the antechamber is her core, the hub of her multi-dimensional inter-galactic being
she can always come back to that neutral space and regroup before going out on one or more journeys

she gets lost  and stuck sometimes though
it happens when she can’t help anticipating what she will discover
or when she tries to play other people’s games or to please them

then the realm of infinite possibilities gets limited to a single tunnel ending with(out) a dot of light
the pain caused by shrinking her vision is hardly bearable, all her bodies suffer indescribable stress and if she ignores the signals she may fall ill or even die

she does ignore them occasionally, when she numbs herself to avoid feeling the pain and keeps going on loops like a hamster in a wheel
the way out is to choose to get out of the trap (it won’t happen on its own !)

so to recap

as long as Alice makes one of more choices, she is safe, nothing can go wrong and she can’t get things wrong. Every cell of her body holds the imprint of her Self and keeps reminding her of it. The better she can feel her body and intuit, the easier the journey

what really matters is that she indulges in the evidently contradictory creative chaos of adventures which will allow her to fully realise who she is. There is no set plan nor compulsory steps to take, her unique path of evolution is accomplished when she has become ALICE  !

there are as many antechambers as human beings, they are all unique and interconnected with one another
each time somebody opens a door and goes on an adventure it activates the energy field of those potentially or actually engaged in similar games. Sometimes it invites joyful emulation and sharing sparkling light, other times it can trigger defence and creates dark spots of greater density in the areas that are closing

each one of us is currently a smaller version of him/herself in the process of becoming SELF

although choices, games and journeys are ours, we have set appointments (karmic contracts) with other people who are involved in their own adventures 
most  games are more fun when played together and since we keep playing our own games in parallel , shared games give us a chance to see ourselves in someone else’s mirror

it’s not about making the right choice, there is no such thing, choices as such are neutral (i.e. neither good nor bad), it’s about having the gut to engage with reality and find out what kind off experience we would like to have on Earth
