Channelled message from the Andromedans 5/8/13, Channelled by Rebecca Brown, Soul to Soul
This is the time no doubt when you seek the answers of your purpose and in fact the higher purpose of humanity at this time. There are so many of you asking questions of why does this happen, why is this happening to me? This consciousness is in fact of a very low vibration and is a direct indication of your lack of faith. Those in complete connection, those who have mastered the earth plane, allow themselves complete surrender to the oneness of All That Is.
The strong energies of control, judgment and fear are the primary motivators on your earth at this time but we can tell you that we can see EVERYONE contributing to these energies even your spiritual leaders.
So the answer is simple. Stop asking why and accept your circumstances …..let go of control. This will allow unnecessary pain and fear to be vanquished from your reality.
Stop trying to figure it all out and just allow LIFE to flow through you and around you . You are in the ultimate experience, living in a physical reality.
How much do you realize how amazing an opportunity this is? How much are you thankful for the opportunity you have created to live this life? How much are you thankful for all the souls that have helped you create the reality in which you live?
We in the higher realms support you greatly but see such resistance to the sources of light that are surrounding you.
Stop to breathe in all of life through you and simply be. Even your so called harsh experiences are needed for the evolution of the soul and all of consciousness. By letting go of the judgment, control and fear you diminish much of the unnecessary pain.
It is time to restore your faith. Your world is going through a wake up and there will be events coming soon that will trigger deep awakenings within mass consciousness through the awakening of the pineal gland.
The earth will be receiving many frequencies. Be prepared, especially light workers, as many will be seeking healing and guidance. For too long, you have held yourselves back but now is the time to step forward as people are looking for you. Every experience you have had has prepared you for this. The human energy field is requiring change to a crystalline nature to withstand the frequency shifts and the magnetic shifts in the earth’s grid. That is why many human’s nervous systems are overwhelmed right now as the physical mainframe makes this transition. With this shift, it will herald an awakening of consciousness and the system will be maintained from an internal light source. Your sun will also serve as an important cellular energy source. Your cells are being purified so that this light source can fully function to sustain LIFE in the new world.
So, Humans, we urge you to stop asking why and hold the light in trust and faith. Take steps to connect with your faith? What does faith mean to you? How can you make efforts each day to connect in your faith? Look to those around you who have faith and ask them for guidance. All you need is within and around you. Simply surrender to it.
We bring you much love and hold a supportive embrace for you.
Blessings Be

THOUGHT OF THE DAY
No matter what happens to your body – meditate. Never go to sleep at night until you have communed with God. Your body will remind you that you have worked hard and need rest but the more you ignore its demands and concentrate on the Lord, the more you will burn with joyous life, like a globe afire. Then you will know you are not the body.
….Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda.

In and Around the Academy
With Rosemary Butterworth
An evening with Tim Noonan was a little bit mind blowing. His knowledge of the voice took us to a new understanding of our own voice. What is hiding behind the layers of sound we have put there since childhood. Being blind since birth has given him exceptional tools – exceptional hearing ability to hear the nuances, the pain we are each hiding behind our smiling sounds. He explained what happens in a voice reading session and gave us a demonstration. Having fallen in love with his work, John and I are taking Tim and his lovely partner, Alan up to Jacaranda Haven on the long weekend in October.
TAKE TIME OUT and come to JACARANDA HAVEN’S OPEN DAY.
5th October. 10.00am – 4.00pm.
Special Guest Speaker – TIM NOONAN – “Your Unique Sound”.
Tim was born blind and this has given him greater ability to hear the nuances in your voice. Tim’s talks about his Voice Readings: “You will be heard compassionately, at a heart and soul level. I attentively listen to your voice, your words and your totally unique sound. I then explain to you in words and ways that make sense to you, what your voice says about you. For example, I can explain what other people unconsciously hear and feel when they hear you speak, and I will also remind you about some of your unique qualities, values and talents which I hear in your voice.”
PLUS A GONG BATH, and WALKING THE LABYRINTH.
VENUE: Jacaranda Haven, 407 Avalon Road, Dyer’s Crossing.

Affirmation – say daily… I AM MASTER OF MY CELLS.
My inner child copies my behaviour. I now work with my inner child, allowing it to develop and grow up. Now I will be an adult with my inner child, and then it will not be childish and needy. The lost child inside asking for help and direction is me. Let me create light and move from the past into a new future. I have greater things to learn when I allow myself to grow up and take responsibility for my own failings. Let all emotions now flow as though I have found the answers to all my questions.
This I have done by myself, therefore everyone around me will know I have grown up and matured.

HEALTH- Practical Meditation
As stress is growing in the community there is a need, more than ever, for you to take time out for yourself even a few minutes each day connecting to the sunshine, your angels, your guides is important. Your group is important too so do endeavour to make going to your spiritual meetings a top priority. Meditation is important. Meditiation is a lifeline.
Julia Griffin of One True Self says “Meditation is a way of staying on the path. It can be a practice of developing stillness, co-creating dreams, or receiving divine guidance. On the highest level, it’s a combination of all three. Part of the fulfillment comes from learning to hold a higher frequency. When you see your life from a more positive point of view, you hold a higher frequency. (It’s not just about creating your dreams; it’s about staying connected.)”

‘YOU ARE MORE THAN YOU CAN SEE’
Julia Smith
• AuraEnergy Photography of your energy field and chakras. This is a fun way to interact with your energy field and can really help you understand where you are at.
• Come along and be one or more of those present to experience photographs of the real you and how ‘Sound and Colour’ as pure energy directly impact your energy field.
• AuraEnergy Photos show you are more than you can see as they capture an’ in the moment image’ of your whole self – the visible physical and invisible energy field that surrounds you and that you emit like a beacon.
The colours in these photos provide interesting and valuable information about the current operation status of your chakras and the vibration in your energy field.
We are both an energy being and a physical being, so by actively working to cleanse, open and balance your chakras and energy field you allow the optimal amount of ‘chi’ or’ pranic’ energy to enter your being. This sets a platform of better health, vitality, creativity, implementation and assists to raise the vibrational rate of your energy field.
Along with positive thinking and a higher vibrational rate you will increase your Law of Attraction, attracting optimal experiences into your life.
By working with sound and colour, as pure sources of chi energy, these vibrational energies easily are absorbed into our bodies and greatly assist in cleansing, opening and balancing our energy field and chakras.
A few willing people from the audience will have the chance to receive ‘before and after’ AuraEnergy photos 
, after experiencing a short session on the Sound Massage table and Colour Therapy.
