Buzzing Bluebottles

I can remember back in the day when I used fly spray and would watch the bluebottles buzz around in fury as they battled to shake off the insecticide that had covered them. It reminded me of the way I used to feel when my head would be filled with a stream of incessant thoughts buzzing around in my mind, which stirred up worries, fears and inadequacies which then played out in my life. The thoughts that I battled with, the fears I generated and the outcomes that were not pleasing to me were all part of the battle of the ego, which is one we all have to face while in human form. At the moment we see it playing out very strongly in the world today, as we witness the results of toxic thinking which has led to inappropriate decisions and actions, destructive behaviour and catastrophic events.

Everything that appears or happens in our world stems from our thoughts, whether we are aware of this or not. We create at whatever level of consciousness we are at and the resulting effects go on to reverberate throughout our personal and collective world. As we watch conflict and destruction play out on our tv screens, we have a sacred duty to resist contributing to the negativity by judging and condemning. However much we disapprove, allowing our ego self to take over in this way will only serve to keep us in a dark place. We can help others as well as ourselves by starting to use our thoughts constructively to bring positivity, and peace and calm to our own lives and the lives of others.

We all have a decision now and that is to choose our preferred vibratory energetic alignment, because that will determine our individual and collective life experience.

Over the many centuries, in times of great trouble, religions have taken on the leadership role by offering prayers and redemption, while placing their ideologies and institutions between mankind and God. This has not worked as their actions have restricted their relationship and taken away the individual’s power of the true realisation that all human kind is the God essence and does not need anyone or any organisation, to come between them and their maker.

You may wonder what you can do as you sit in the comfort of your own home and watch events unravelling on your TV screens. Agonising, worrying and blaming will only add to the negativity. Instead you might like to consider how you can avoid being dragged down into the blackness of it all.

Our individual and collective world are all vibrating at different frequencies. We all have free will and that gives us the option to decide on what level of dimensional consciousness we want to live in as individuals? If we wish to spread peace throughout the world we must first come from a peaceful place inside ourselves because before we can begin to be of use in any way, we must first take control of ourselves and our own thinking.

Understanding this concept and claiming our individual energetic vibration is the most important concept to grasp and work with at this time in earth’s history. It will be our saving grace and is the way forward through this troubled time on our planet. Vibratory energy aligns with itself so it makes sense to avoid negativity and focus on positivity.

A good place to start is to have discernment and limit the news coverage we watch and the social media we engage in. Watch just enough to keep up with the essentials of what is happening. Do not get drawn into the negativity and do not feel bad about turning off a negative piece of TV reporting. By doing this we will give ourself the space to focus on the incident in a more constructive way by holding a thought of people being at peace and happy and imagine how pleased you will feel once you hear that there is a breakthrough in areas of conflict. Metaphorically light a candle and see the light moving out into the world.

As the outside world is fighting you will have your own battle going on within. Taking control of a mind that is forever busy chewing things over, judging and condemning is not an easy task, especially when, like my bluebottles buzzing around, it is fighting for its life! However, this is a fight that you should engage in and one that everyone on this planet will inevitably have to face - the battle of controlling the ego mind, which only feeds on the negativity of duality - despair versus hope, hate versus love and war versus peace.

It will fight like hell to keep you in service to its needs by whispering at first, then gradually getting louder until it is shouting in your ears that all the positive versus negative talk is rubbish! How can sending a thought or lighting a candle help? What makes you think you have the answer?

Every journey starts with a small step. The power and influence of our TV screens and the internet is massive, it is a main driver of influence in the western world today but it is a double edged sword which can increase negativity or drive positivity. Do not let it decide your future, take back your personal internal mastery. Instead of constantly reaching for your electronic zapper why not consider accessing your own internal remote control and that means making the choice to become more aware of your thoughts and actively change them into more positive ones. The more you do this the more control you will have and as a consequence you will be more able to embrace a higher dimension of life expression which will attract similar vibrational experiences into your personal world.

The only thing constant is change and we are all experiencing this now with greater momentum than ever before as our planet and every living thing upon it moves up and around the energetic spiral of life and as this happens we are individually and collectively aligning with those vibrations that are compatible within ourselves. It is a ‘time’ for the separation of the wheat from the chaff, as we align ourselves with the harmonious aspects of life and move through the rising vibrations. Life is constantly changing and we will never return to what has been.

I don’t spray the flies now, instead I open the windows and let them out so that they can fly away and die naturally when their time is due. That is what we must do with our ego thoughts too. Don’t allow them to buzz around in our heads like before, instead release them and replace the void with positivity, leaving no space for them to return. That is truly what taking back our personal control is all about.
