Astoriel Speaks

    "Good Evening to all of you. This is Astoriel now speaking through this channeler. I am an angel, a Seraphic angel and one who has existed for an eternity of time and space and dimension. We of the angelic realm have the privilege and the opportunity to ascertain the various comings and goings of the planet as a whole for we are given the opportunity to take responsible management for the comings and goings of the earth plane itself. There is a great hierarchy of being that is involved in the domain and the placement of the earth itself in terms of maintaining the energies both within and without the planet. And there is a great effort on the part of many Angels and Light Beings to monitor and maintain, to balance and restructure or even transmute the energy expressions found on various levels of the planet. This is a great task that many angels find interesting and challenging to work with.

    I, Astoriel, have been in charge and in this capacity to work with these energies for many, many years such that I am familiar with the comings and goings of energy expressions found on the earth and around the earth and for the earth from various levels. So that the time of the New Age is a time when we are introducing new energy frequency patterns literally into and onto the planet itself. So that there is concomitant reaction on the part of all humanity, on the part of all consciousness itself, to these energies. And of course, we want to stir things up. We want to trigger things, we want to catalyze things, we want growth to occur in your consciousness and awareness!

    What better way to do so than to stimulate your consciousness just as one would electrically stimulate the growth of a plant or stimulate the growth of any living thing by introducing light or sound energy into its energy field. Just so, we stimulate your consciousness through the introduction of these new energies. These energies are the energies of Love, they are sub-frequencies of the general energy we call Love, such that they produce within your consciousness, ultimately, an experience of joy, bliss and ecstasy. These energies are frequencies that will generate within your consciousness an expansion of awareness of the emotion of joy, the emotion of ecstasy and the emotion of bliss. But in order for this to occur, you may have to feel some discomfort at first. For these emotional capacities that are lying within you are dormant; they are not yet fully realized. They have to be triggered into an awakening. And in order for these capacities to "trigger", various layers of emotional blocks have to be released from their realm in order for you to directly experience this triggering and catalytic effect.

    Many people, now, are beginning to feel the blocks the repressions, the denials, the distortions and the perversions of emotion that are covering up, clouding or surrounding these dormant capacities. So that what is appearing in your media now, within the news and on the television and what you may be experiencing privately within yourself and perhaps within your family and friends are all the chaotic emotional and social disruptions that are occurring due to the fact that these blocks are now being released in an awkward (or non-awkward) fashion. These repressions, distortions and denials are coming to the surface and are being expressed literally and figuratively amongst you now, so that you are thinking to yourself "My goodness, what is going on in the earth today? What is happening to everyone? Has everyone gone mad?

    What is really happening is that these blocks, denials and repressions and what we'll say historically the "karmic garbage" of your history is being released literally into the atmosphere and is being verbally communicated at physical, mental, social and even political levels. This is being done now to such an extant that you may feel as if this is a process that will never end. It seems as if issues and feelings, old memories and attitudes keep coming up and coming up to be released and coming up again and are continually being expressed in so many ways by so many people, all the time!

    People are so "trigger happy" these days, or on "pins and needles" or on a hair trigger level that they seem to be triggered so easily by things. This is all due to the fact that these energies are doing this to them and to you! Many people who are not prepared for this occurrence, who have not been spiritually advanced or have acknowledged themselves as spiritual beings will have a great deal of difficulty assimilating these energies and allowing themselves to release their blocks in an easy and graceful manner.

    For those who are aware, however, of their spiritual selves and purpose, who are aware of the changes that are occurring, who are being told by myself and by other beings that there are new energies coming onto the planet that will create a great spiritual awakening, they will take these changes "into stride". They will take these changes more philosophically, if they cannot take them so emotionally or in an emotionally balanced way. So that all of you are here, in a sense, to emotionally help each other out in these times of change in order to stay balanced! It is important, now, that all of you come together in groups, come together in workshops, come together in sessions like this so that you can compare notes, so to speak, so that you can ask each other "What is happening to me/ to you? Are you feeling" crazy" or out of sorts the way I'm feeling?

    As you experience these changes, you will need emotional feedback from other people around you who are also undergoing the same processes in order to feel emotionally better about your personal situation. I wanted to speak about this topic for I felt it was important for you to get a re-confirmation of your own perceptions about what is going on in your own life at this time. You may have thought that something was going on because the influx of energies felt as if they were accelerating, (and they are!) and that you were feeling a little more jittery than usual. You may have been looking for new and different ways to calm yourself down so as to stay balanced and to maintain a sense of 'normalcy'.

    Experience the 'jittery ness', shall we say it, and do not be afraid of it! Do not be afraid of the energy that you are experiencing! For this energy experience gives you an opportunity to master, control and utilize this energy for constructive purpose! You can constructively work with this energy by learning how to ground this energy, to ground this energy (as best as you can!) through your body and into the earth. For the earth needs this energy as much as you do! We are, now, sending a lot of this energy to specific individuals who in their fashion will ground the energy into the earth for us. So that many of you have been deemed transmitters or human 'beamers' of this energy (not only to other people), but to the planet itself. So understand that you have a responsibility or an opportunity, now to ground this energy into the earth and you can do this through the various grounding processes that you have already learned through your spiritual practices such as meditation, visualization, dancing, drumming or even walking.

    I suggest that you come together to do this as a group, now, to meditate together and to visualize together and to ground your energies, as a whole, into the earth. (And this will also help relieve the "jitteriness" that you are feeling!) This will also help increase the amount of love energy being sent to the earth itself, so that it may not have to undergo so many changes," earth changes" if you will, in order to reconcile its own releasing of negativity from its past and from its depths. For the earth has been pulling in energies from all sources, all peoples and all dimensions for eons! This grounding process will prove to be inspirational and visionary, for by literally grounding these new (Love) energies into the earth itself, you will be healing the entire planet! So now, I will suggest a visualization for you to do in order to accomplish this task....

Grounding Love Into the Earth Meditation

    "First, visualize yourself as a group together inside a bubble of white light (as if you are floating in a cloud/ bubble of light.) Sense the white light all around you and inside you as well. Sense the peace and contentment you feel. Visualize a golden cord coming down from the top of the cloud bubble of light and attaching itself to the top of your head. (You are now connected to the Angelic dimension by this connecting cord.)

    Then, visualize a peachy pink and gold energy pouring down from the Angelic dimension, down through this golden cord into the top of your heads and down through the rest of your bodies. See it continuing down through your bodies and pouring out through the bottoms of your feet, which in turn are (astrally ) extending down through the earth through long threads or astral cords.

    See this energy being sent down through these cords into the center of the earth in which there lies within the center a literal (and symbolic) (iron) crystal of which then, these energies can be absorbed and then re-transmitted, accordingly.  Visualize then, these energies as being absorbed by the crystal and then, transformed by the crystal, into frequencies that can be re-transmitted through the earth and/or back up through the astral cords and back up through your bodies and, finally, back up into the atmosphere once again.

    Repeat this visualization several times. This is a visualization that you could and should do as a group on a weekly or monthly basis, so that you can begin to express and release these energies in a purposeful and constructive fashion."
