Collective Reading September 29-October 5: Healthy Boundaries

For so long, you have felt like you were locked out in the cold, looking in on the abundance of others. This week we are finding our empowerment and claiming our abundance. Be firm in your belief in your worth.

The beginning of knowledge is understanding that you don’t know something. The beginning of abundance is realizing that you want something you don’t have.

Before you experienced lack, you experienced undifferentiated wholeness. There was no lack, and there was no abundance. There simply WAS.

Then, the question was asked, “What is this thing that I have, and what does it do for my experience?” Like a science experiment, this idea piqued your interest.

And so, you agreed to experience existence without that thing. You learned that not having it created problems, but the plan was always to attain it again. You enjoyed the idea of coming to appreciate that thing more. You decided that you would choose kindness when you felt badly, as well. You would be the good. In experiencing an abundance of lack, you felt the energies of sadness, jealousy, and competition. You felt fear and guilt, as well. Nevertheless, you knew that taking abundance from others would not fix your feelings, and so you chose poverty and self-denial until you could find your own abundance again.

At the same time, others also incarnated to experience lack, and their reaction to it created an insatiable hunger. They turned the energies of sadness, jealousy, and competition into justification for taking from others. They forgot that we are all part of the whole, and that hurting one hurts all. They chose not to care, deadening their feelings and separating themselves from the pain of the whole so that they could continue to inflict it. They shoved their guilt off onto their victims. You saw this and started to believe that poverty was the best way forward. You may have taken an actual vow of poverty at one point, as well. Betrayal got involved, causing community wounding. The social system skewed in favor of those with insatiable hunger to take for themselves.

This game is ending, and it’s ending now. In bringing the world back to wholeness, balance must be restored. We can no longer live in a world with such drastic imbalance, because the effect of it is pulling the collective Universe off balance. What began as a smaller game has spiraled into a disaster.

The higher powers of the Universe are stepping in to break up the game, and have been doing so for a while. The solution must match the problem, and that is why it has taken this long. If you feel big shifts, or feel you are part of these big shifts, you are correct. Keep balancing service to others with service to self inside yourself.

No light is ever wasted, and no true love goes unrewarded, in the long run. It is not your job to punish selfish people. It is your job to reclaim what is rightfully yours and be compassionate. That claiming is not punishment. Remember that self-compassion is as important as compassion for others. You cannot give to others if you have nothing to give. You cannot endlessly break your cup to fill someone else’s. Drop the guilt over feeding yourself.

The biggest factor in your success now will be your ability to hold healthy boundaries. Take time and energy to rest and refill your cup as needed (and give when you feel like it!). You are looking for reciprocal energy from others who believe in service to others in balance with service to self. A kind no is better than a dishonest yes.

The key is to start valuing balance above self-sacrifice. This will allow you to finally drop these negative emotions and ideas that held you back. Be gentle with yourself in this process. Creating safe space within you is the most effective way to heal the collective.

What is Authentic Self Realignment?

Backstory

I was talking with a friend recently and realized that when I channel something, it’s useful and meant to be what it is.

Surprising, I know. I had to laugh at how complicated I had made yet another aspect of my life. Honestly, though, I was relieved by the answer.

When I first channeled the Authentic Self Realignment Protocol, I was not nervous about unveiling it. Everything in it made sense. I used it on myself with great results. I even found other people to test it on, and it worked for them.

And then I got into worry. My abundance blocks prevented me from sharing it. And because I didn’t share it, no one else scheduled it. My fear became a self-fulfilling prophecy and I focused on something I felt more comfortable doing. I dove back into doing general energy sessions, massage, and just living life. I wasn’t ready for this then. But the Universe knew that I would be ready later. I spent months working through the things that were holding me back, allowing the answers to come in due time when it wasn’t so scary.

Fast forward to last week, and I again asked for guidance on my offerings. Authenticity as a theme came up, and I immediately thought of my original channeled protocol.

So what is Authentic Self Realignment?

ASR is an energy session designed to clear out expectations, identities, contracts, entities, and other blocks that overshadow or prevent us from truly living the life we are here to live.

Using several accumulated tools to address each aspect as needed, we peel away the layers of a life that is not meant for you and allow you to come back to your innate truth.

The inner world is what manifests the outer world, so clearing energetic clutter is essential to taking the actions needed to change your life.

How to determine whether this is for you:

->You aren’t seeing the path forward, or opportunities just aren’t showing up when you ask for them

->You feel like you’re “stuck”

->You realize there is a different way of living, and you’re motivated to get there

If this sounds like what you’re experiencing, book a session and let’s get started.

Fair Warning

Like with my journey of channeling this service, as things are uncovered, you will be called upon to do your inner work. You may need several sessions to uncover all the layers, or you may need other supports as you are called to develop your gifts. You will absolutely need to be gentle with yourself through your process. Your life may shift in big ways.

Big shifts deserve the patience and dedication required to get to big results. You’re worth the time and energy you need to transform your life into something you feel good about.

Collective Reading September 8-14: Balance in Changing Times

The Magus, or Magician, takes center stage this week for the theme of self-empowerment through change, as seen in the guiding card, The Universe.

Maybe you never believed you create your own reality because you couldn’t imagine signing up for the things you’ve experienced.

Not everything you experienced was of your making, granted, but your perception of and response to it is something you can control.

Given the proper tools, you have the ability to shape your path and walk it, too. Some such tools are discernment, patience, connection to Source, knowing what questions to ask when. Sometimes the next move is to continue walking forward, and sometimes the next move is to pause.

If you are firmly grounded in the belief, or vibration, of success, you will identify and be drawn to success. The exact steps don’t matter nearly as much as planting your feet on the surface that feels the most right. You aren’t going to stay there forever. Something else will come along, seemingly out of nowhere, and then you will have another opportunity to let your imagination build on your positive dreams.

Keep your balance in the shifts by balancing determination with curiosity and humor. Just because you are mighty does not mean you cannot be silly, too. The Universe thrives on fun and chaos just as much as it does diligence and honor. When the going gets tough, make light of it. Then continue to the next step with the lightness you’ve gained. A spring in your step helps you reach higher places, after all.

There will be opportunities to burn away the dross this week. For some that may mean getting rid of clutter, for others it may mean letting go of identities and history that does not serve your highest good. You get to rewrite the story of who you are because no one story could ever cover all there is to you. Make a new choice and practice that choice consistently, and you will get different results. Rather like listening for echoes in a cave, your actions will bounce results back to you in a delayed fashion, so give your new actions time to bounce back, and give the old echoes time to die away. You’re doing the right things, so keep at it.

Ultimately, the entirety of this phase in your life is one of growth, purification, and creation, and that is what you came for. It wouldn’t be fun to get to the end of it without having experienced the joy and excitement of the journey. Enjoy it by trusting that everything works out perfectly according to your true, deep desires. If you knew the end result were good, you would walk with more confidence. Start walking with that confidence as soon as you can, and watch how it changes your perceptions.

You truly do have everything you need, so dream big and live well.

Collective Reading September 1-7: Run the Gauntlet

This week we have the opportunity to find out.

I hear the words, “Run the gauntlet.” A traditional running of the gauntlet was a ritualistic offering rather like releasing the over-abundance of a catch. The image I am getting with the phrase is of throwing back the fish that are too small, or releasing prisoners who had enough courage to dare to be free–or die trying.

We are the ones who survived and are now given the chance to escape. Will survivor guilt hold you back from claiming the opportunity that is yours?

There is no fairness in this predicament, when seen from this vantage point. You demand justice and equity for all. But if you don’t get out of harm’s way and return home to regain your strength (and reinforcements), who will come back to jailbreak those who can’t leave? Can you lift others to higher ground when you are not strong?

Survivor guilt robs you of the drive to succeed. And the irony is that you don’t need to see others with this lens of pity. We are each runners of our own gauntlet. This chance you have has nothing to do with anyone else, and vice versa. You manifested an opportunity for a better way of being, which was the whole point of your journey anyway. Trust that they have every opportunity to do the same.

You do not know what is behind the failures and successes of others. Pity robs them of their resilience and honor. Allow for things to be unfair now, and know that you have great ability to offer a helping hand when the timing is right, but the timing isn’t always right. You are not less good or less worthy when you are unable to be of use. This is a time for you to receive and still be worthy.

Four of Earth cautions you to first turn the key in the lock, and then try the handle. You can open the door easily if you open it the right way. You don’t need to turn yourself into a battering ram.

Remember that your abundance feels like coming home. Your harvest is the fruit of your labors, and you have earned it. Even if you are tired or lacking drive now, your past efforts still have value. You will be able to give again when you have accumulated the strength and wisdom to do so.

Believe in your worthiness to receive good things and you will find the easy path through the gauntlet. It will work out the way you are ready for.

Live long and well,

Elihu John

Collective Reading August 18-24: Forward to Victory

When you know more, you can act from a place of more wisdom.

This week is about that balance between gaining knowledge and reaching into the unknown. It’s like you’ve learned how to use math formulas to calculate the outcome rather than just guessing. There will be new variables, but your formulas are more accurate now. Your past experiences have percolated into clarity.

20/20 hindsight is not the same as seeing everything ahead. At some point, you have to learn how to trust your own calculations and take the unknowns in stride. Your cause-and-effect brain is reorganizing through this shift, so if you’re acting in a more aligned way despite the unknowns, it’s because you’re using a better internal guidance system. It’s not a fluke.

Much of what has been happening on Earth in the last few weeks (years, if we’re being accurate) has been a recalibration of human software. We are shifting to higher timelines, upgrading anti-virus software, and expanding consciousness. This is all necessary.

What we don’t often see is the work being done behind the scenes. Trust that as you move forward, doors will open before you and close behind you. Your job is to just do what you’re supposed to do. You don’t have to carry the responsibility of anyone else.

Speaking of which, if you feel over-burdened, you may be carrying something that isn’t yours. Let that go in gratitude. If you feel overwhelmed, ask your inner guidance if the action you’re trying to complete is in divine timing. It’s okay to change your scope. Better to carry a load to the destination than spill what you’re carrying before getting to the end.

Even if you do spill, it’s going to be okay. You can recover.

The Chariot card reminds you that a step forward in any direction is still going to drive the mission forward. Someone else on your team may need to course correct, and you may receive some coaching, but that next step in an even better direction will never happen if you don’t take the one before it.

You’ve got this. The Universe has your back. Be optimistic and curious about how to move forward, and your energy will align with your beautiful future.

With love,

Elihu John

Collective Reading August 11-17: Paths Diverge

You have reached the apex of this cycle of change, and are now ready to pick up momentum in your new direction. Expect things to improve and get easier quickly. You are no longer pushing your bike up the hill.

Everything that is coming to the surface is an image of what has already manifested. Sometimes we as humans don’t see just how bad it was until we get some distance from it. Now that you have that distance, you are invited to accept and recognize the experience for what it is. Be ruthless in your quest for truth, and fierce in your commitment to love.

Acceptance is the first step in changing what happens next. Acceptance involves believing what you perceive, and separating it from the assumptions you previously accepted as truth. An example of this would be realizing that you and someone you love do not agree on what movie to watch, and rather than continuing to believe someone is at fault and should change, you realize that you simply have different interests. If you don’t have to change your preferences to be loved, and they can keep theirs intact with dignity, you can come up with a compromise that allows each person to watch their own movie and spend time together doing something else.

When people can play together without having to play the same note, there is harmony. When realities diverge to the point of having no overlapping truths, the natural effect is separation. Let go of what does not serve you, and you will find more space for what does. It is okay to acknowledge that someone else is having a different experience of reality without you having to change yours, and vice versa.

In order to manifest the life you want, you must be unyielding in your dedication to your truth. You must set your sights on the beauty you wish to experience and act in a way that allows for it to show up.

Call a spade a spade, and then pick it up and use it to dig your garden. Everything that you experience is useful to identify what you do and do not want, so you know what direction to pursue. And when you know better, do better. Don’t worry about fault.

You are doing good work and it is paying off, even if you’re not seeing it yet. This divergence from what you knew will lead you to convergence with your beautiful new life and community. Keep going.

With love,

Elihu John

Collective Reading July 28-August 3: Power in the Higher Self

This week we renegotiate our relationship with our own empowerment. From our Higher Self comes the call to remember who we are, and remember how powerful we are.

One of Fire/Wands is supported by One of Earth/Pentacles. This means potential for material gain as we continue exercising our personal power in the way that is aligned with our Highest Self.

Be aware that your intention energy is the key to really settling into your success. Your manifestations, or the things that show up in response to your energy output, are tools to purify your intentions.

If nothing that happened in this world mattered in the long term, what kinds of mistakes would you make as you fail forward?

I know that you are trying to make every effort a well thought out and successful one, but the truth is that perfect is the enemy of done, and getting feedback is the single fastest way to have the knowledge you need. There is a solution built in to every problem, and mistakes aren’t going to last the same way they did before.

Call upon your Higher Self, your guides, the Universe of Light, or whatever higher power you feel trust in this week. Ask for them to smooth the path before you, resolve things you cannot fix, correct you gently when you are wrong, and otherwise support you.

The Emperor is all about personal empowerment, so start naming the ways in which you are empowered. This brings your attention to a productive line of thought and calls more of it to you.

You’re going to want to rethink what you can give and receive. Are you feeling generous or people-pleasing? Are you feeling stingy or scared of running out? Identify fear-based decisions and step into courageous amd logical decisions. Be solution-oriented, affirming of your efforts and successes (and those of others), and keep moving forward in enjoyment and gratitude.

Obviously, this isn’t a time to throw wisdom away. 5 of Earth reminds you that wise generosity will put everything into order, whereas impulsivity causes stressful moments afterward which then block the flow of abundance. You have to keep pedaling the bike in order for the momentum to keep building, so if the answer is “not yet,” honor that. The pieces of the puzzle are more moveable than you can see at first. Connect them clearly, like the lines between the stars in the rectangle, and you will find that they make a thorough and easy to follow path.

Remember that there are helpful elements you cannot see, as the fifth star above the other four shows in Five of Earth. As above, so below. Do your own work, and ask for and allow your community to do theirs. It all adds up. Two of Water emphasizes the give and take of reciprocal relationships built on good will and generosity. Don’t write negative scripts for people that gunk up their ability to show up, just because you’ve been burned before. The people who are your people just want to show up and do their thing in peace. Let them, and then identify and express gratitude for it. Doing so will confirm your hunches about people, or give you new info that you can use going forward. There is no loss in this.

Lastly, have a great week, trusting that everything is working out for you in exactly the way you need, even if you can’t see how yet.

With love,

-Elihu John

Collective Reading July 21-27: Stubborn Love

There is an energy of plunging ahead into the unknown this week. We may feel like we as a world are repeating history. We may feel like it just gets worse. In reality, the intensity is rising, but not just one way: light and dark are polarizing.

If you just realize how the pieces fit together, you will see the way you can unlock your bright future. It is time to let go of the past, let go of fears and worries. They will be there, stronger than ever, if you choose to tune into them. This opposition is a programmed response to you rising into your power. Ignore it when possible. Holding your vision of a better way will draw that way to you until you merge with it in every aspect.

There is so much you are ready for. The belief that you aren’t ready is simply your reaction to not seeing the whole picture yet. If the road seems steep, take it one step at a time. You are not just climbing mountains; you are moving them.

It really cannot get worse, because of how you have grown to match the dilemmas you face. You have reached the apex of this experience, and any further worsening is basically threats to make you give up. This feels like a staring contest. Keep staring it down, and wait for it to back down. You have a great deal of stubbornness, stupidity, and tunnel vision at your disposal, so use it appropriately.

The end result of holding your optimism and acting on it is that you will be the dominant energy. You will create your garden of peace and prosperity because you didn’t stop nurturing it. Others may ridicule your growth, but what they call weeds are actually the medicine that the world needs. Keep embracing your wild beauty, and your thorns.

This week feels like finally being able to drop the weight of caring what other people think, so that you more fully embrace and use your power. Carry on, beautiful warrior soul. We need you just the way you are.

Collective Reading July 14-20: Shifting Higher

What a week! First, congratulations on all you have accomplished to get here. Your impact and power are bigger than you can see right now.

There are repeating symbols in this reading, which I will go into.

The first is the Sun. This is confirmation that you are on the right path. The Sun is often referred to as the ultimate “yes” card in Tarot. Even when reversed, or buried within another card, the Sun is a harbinger of success and joy. This symbol shows up in the actual Sun card, as well as in the card on the top and the card below it. You are finding multiple opportunities that feel right to some degree. Keep sifting through them to find the one you like the most. It’s okay to “date around.”

The second is the infinity symbol. Remember who you are. Remember that you are an integral part of this Universe, and that no matter what happens, your efforts matter. Always.

The Universe is watching your journey unfold, and it is pleased. There is nothing you need to do to gain love. You are doing enough, just as you are. Take the pressure off yourself to be perfect, to be better, or to be further along. You are doing enough because you are enough.

There is a lot of heaviness that you are processing through, which is why it feels so hard. Know that as you work through the darkness that seems to rise up to meet you, you are hacking away a thicket of thorns to get to where you want to be. As you work, stay in your peace. Stay in your positivity. The calm inside you will create calm outside you as you continue to choose it, so allow yourself to be well inside yourself regardless of what you see or hear.

Collectively, we are in transition from a darker paradigm to a lighter one. In these changing times, we are invited to become a vibrational match to the highest light we can reach. Once we have purged all darkness from ourselves, we will have no need to call lower vibrations home. That’s not to say it will go away completely. But it will cease to be the place you naturally go to when you’re not putting in effort.

Your home is the place where you feel the most comfortable and authentic, most allowed to just exist as you. You are able to interact with other places, people, and things, and will continue to do so. But these will not be as comfortable or familiar. At the end of the day, it’s nice to just come home and rest.

Your relationships will continue to need work this week. Make and keep healthy lines of communication, prune the ones that aren’t helpful, and remember that healthy relationships fill both people’s cups. There is no room for one-sidedness or martyrdom when we all have such a big purpose in life, so be sure everyone is benefitting from the relationship.

Fire is the suit of empowerment, and Fire Sister reminds you that you have more power to create the life you want than you realize. You also have many supporters. Keep going. You’re doing well.

-Elihu John

Collective Reading July 7-13: Positive Karma

This week, we are breaking out of old patterns and seizing new opportunities. In the process of active change, your desires are more potent than you realize. The process of manifestation is depicted here.

In order to understand what you’re working towards, you must understand some key truths about your purpose here:

You were made for joy.

Your life is the solution.

Your perspective and journey in this plane of existence are necessary to completing the whole picture.

These truths have been described in previous readings, and will help you to recognize the next steps.

8 of Fire, the central card, is about multiple opportunities opening up for you, seemingly out of the blue. Choose the ones that excite you and align with your purpose. You have been asking for this and preparing your mind, heart, and body to be ready to leap up and grab what comes.

Remember that all must be done in unconditional love. Don’t let fear cloud your vision; allow it to give you insight into why you’re scared of something so you can judge what to do with it.

1 of Fire reminds you that when you are breaking out of a pattern that is toxic or no longer aligns with you, there may be some chaos until you set things in an order that works better. You may find that people who were comfortable to be around before simply aren’t matching up to your new vibration, and that’s okay. Honor their journey, and let them go. Everyone is on their own path. Sometimes these paths line up, and sometimes they diverge. If they cross paths with you again, it will happen naturally and can give insight into where you’re at–and why. The best action is to allow things to go their own way and focus on your own work.

Separation is an illusion. The fact is that we as a Universe are always, always connected to everyone and everything. You can never permanently lose what is truly yours, and you can never keep something you take from others. There is a part of you at a healed and whole level who has resolved every issue you face now. This is your Higher Self. Your Higher Self is a valuable resource to ask for help and guidance. Your Higher Self is part of your Soul Council and is in communication with your Soul Guides, who are present with you specifically so they can help you when you ask.

That being said, you do experience a very real separation, lack, grief, and hunger in this life. This is the contrast that teaches you what you do and don’t like. Once you have identified it, you can clear, retrieve, and heal it. This work is an important part of the cycle of life, and is the answer to the problems that brought you out of the experience of Oneness.

Your life is the solution to the problems of this world. All of us have come here to solve the part we can solve, and we are doing it by healing ourselves. One life at a time, one person at a time, one community of aligned individuals at a time. Our journeys are the harmony that make the music of the world, and if you listen, you can hear it resonating through you. What a gift you give to All That Is.

I love you. You got this. Keep going.

-Elihu John
