Comments on the North Illinois University shooting
I have asked Many of One to comment on the recent shooting at North Illinois University. I was touched deeply by this tragedy and began to wonder what’s up with all the school shootings?
We wish for you to know that all people have a free will choice. The availability of guns is not the issue, it is the humanity that holds the gun.
There are those who, out of pain, ignorance and fear choose a path of darkness and feel power in that choice. When they engage an act such as this shooting in the school, they feel a surge of power and know it can only be topped by shooting themselves in the ultimate explosion of power. Even though there is free will choice, individuals who choose the dark path give up their choice. The dark force has its tentacles deep in such individuals. It is as if this force is guiding them – they are no longer in control and the force is sucking in this powerful energy. The fear, grief and despair that follows is also food for this force. We do not wish to frighten anyone by this information – we are illustrating an aspect of the nature of energy. This dark force is being shaken off, as you all take in the higher energies that are pulsing through the Universe from Creator. The parasitic force of dark energy is activating such situations for its own fuel, as it were.
This is difficult information.
Most of the ones who were killed in this incident were not prepared to die. They were not prepared at a soul level. It was not ordained from ‘on high’ “today you will die.” Although leaving the physical body could happen to anyone at any time, usually, the soul has a determination of experience in a chosen lifestream. In a situation like this, death is random. Death is random and it is a momentary… split second moment of truth for each individual.
What happens to the ones who died so suddenly?
Many of them stayed, hovering around, they are shocked and do not know – some do not know they have left their physical body. The truth is that no spirit actually dies or ceases to exist in any way. When the physical body has been rendered uninhabitable, the spirit essence continues to exist. We see that there is one individual in this situation that is cognizant of what has happened to him and he is helping the others to gather together and open to the next experience of non physical being. This is his soul purpose at this time – he was prepared at a soul level for this probability. At first, those who were struck down in this tragedy were in disbelief, then as realization comes, they, too are in grief and are saying goodbye to their loved ones who are still in the physical. Now this is important for you all to hear – your prayers have value. Your prayers, your thoughts of mercy and grace go out to those who have left – your prayers that they be ‘rescued’ by their team of spirit guides and angels – do help immensely. And then you can extend your prayers for softness, grace and comfort to their families and friends. A great pool of grief is churning for those immediately touched by this tragedy. Your prayers are real – just like all your thoughts. All those sending energy through prayer to all those involved – all that loving energy comes together and is a powerful comfort for all. Perhaps this is one saving grace in a situation such as this – as human beings take on their power at an individual level and join together in the non physical realms to generate light, love and truth. People, we tell you, you are powerful and you have a responsibility at the soul level to create a beautiful world of joy. You can be of assistance in these times as you hear the news of the world and send energy of love to the people that are in need. For now, just as you feel the past coming up in your life to be released – or any negative energy you have that is coming up to be released – you can understand that on a larger scale this is happening in the world and even to the Earth herself. Do not use this information to be worried that there may be dark energy in you. Know that you have chosen the path of light. There may be fogs of grayness that are coming up for healing and release and this is being cleansed out of you, as it is your intention. There will always exist the Light and the Dark, the yin and the yang. There is a flowing balance between the two that is part of physical life on Earth. The scales tipped many centuries ago with the Dark prevailing. The Light has gotten stronger and stronger and a fluid balance is being formed. This can only be done with your awareness and intention, and it begins on a personal level in your individual lives.
You have a choice as to what path you choose, trust yourself. And know the power of prayer. Just as you send help through prayer to those in need, you can ask for help for yourself when you are in need. And for good measure, on a daily basis in your meditation, you can send love, light, truth and comfort out to whomever in the world needs assistance on their light path. You have the power. And know this above all else, that Light is stronger than dark, because light is its own energy. The dark needs something to feed off of. Love is stronger than fear. There are legions of light workers in the non physical realm ready to assist you all on your journeys but the most important thing is that you have all the power you need and when you gather with others in the physical or non physical to generate love and send it out around the world, the power expands and grows. Believe in your true nature, your true gifts. Fear not, love is at hand.
We send blessings to all, we are part of the legion of light here to assist when called upon.

The Purge February 14, 2008
Posted by Nancy in Spiritual Development.1 comment so far
For the last few years, upon awakening in the morning I’d either feel panic or depression. First feeling of the day. I would do what I could to shift it, through meditation and prayer or just getting busy with the tasks of life that needed doing. Often, the energy didn’t shift and so I went on with my daily life within that vibration, but usually with a center of light and acceptance (which sometimes felt like resignation) within myself. If I fought the feeling, it would become amplified. Part of the lesson in this was to love myself within every feeling. To love and accept myself even in the midst of depression has been a powerful healing tool. Judging myself for being depressed or afraid only added to the feeling of malaise that surrounded me and then the shoulds would start (as in I shouldn’t be feeling this way).
We’ve all been going through a cleansing as part of receiving the high vibrational energies that are being sent throughout the Universe from Source (substitute God, Creator, All That Is, The Big IT, whatever). These feelings of fear, depression, even despair are energies that are literally being flushed out of us.
The depression, fear and panic have been part of this cleansing, or purging. As the purge continues, it’s important not to attach to the memories and feelings that come up. They are coming up and releasing into the ethers. Recently I was doing a series of yoga asanas and at the end when I was laying in shivasana, memories from years ago were coming up – painful memories where I held judgment against myself – the kind of memories that made me squirm and think, “I can’t believe I did that…” As I lay there, I decided to simply observe and not get attached to the memories or the pain associated with them. As I did this, I saw each memory as if it were inside a bubble and they were just floating up out of my energy field. I placed violet light around my aura and saw the memories floating into the violet light for transformation. I felt compassion for myself and it was very freeing. I keep finding myself focusing on who I am now. Like, “Yes, I’ve been through all that, but who am I now? That’s where my truth is. And all of what I’ve experienced has brought me here.”
Spirit tells us that we are the only ones who judge ourselves. We need to let the judgment go so we can be free. Witnessing our feelings is how we do this. My friend Kelly Beard, a wonderful intuitive astrologer (www.karmictools.com) likens it to cleaning out a closet or going through old stuff to throw things away. You might look at something and say, “Yes, I remember that… I remember when I got this…” but don’t spend the next hour thinking about it and re-living every memory that comes up. Instead, acknowledge and release it. Acknowledge and release.
Another aspect of this purging that you might feel is a cold chill deep inside of you. This is a good sign that you have released some energy and created a space to fill with source energy, which is the vibration of love. So when that happens, breathe in the energy from Spirit – fill the void with love and you will feel the nectar of warmth spreading out inside of you.
Lately, I have been awakening with a feeling of well-being, with a soft feeling of love inside. Slightly surprised, I lay there and feel this good feeling and soak that energy into me. I realize now that I’ve cleared a lot of the old stuff I’d been holding onto. I’ve cleared it, and now the good feeling has a place to land inside of me. As we cleanse emotionally and physically, and open to listening to our hearts and finding our purpose in life (as opposed to a job), we rise higher into the energies of love and joy. There is an end to this purging tunnel!
Wishing you peace,
Nancy Leilah Ward

Soul Transitions
Greetings!
It is with gentle respect that we greet you this day. We wish for you to find comfort and inspiration from these words.
The high vibrational frequency has pulled many of you up and as you integrate the energies you may feel disoriented. The familiar is no longer comfortable, or familiar. If there is a feeling of disorientation, be patient as so much is changing, shifting and reorganizing. We see some of you as sitting on top of a spiraling force of energy – like a geyser. Sitting on top of this energy waiting for a connection to be made that will present a pathway for you to step out upon. Many have already made the commitment to their pathways of Light and are now sitting in a place of suspension. Please know this will shift. Trust and patience are called for. You have taken in the high vibrational energies, made a commitment to your path, intend your service to the One and are now waiting for the vibrations to rise to meet where you are, creating new pathways and connections so you can step into your role in service. Perhaps you have simply arrived early for the party! What you can do is align with your heart and reach up to find the connection with your soul. This will bring about a further alignment to your soul purpose. There also may be one last thing you need to do – some shift, something you need to release before stepping onto the pathway.
If you find there is something that is haunting you, something you did in the past that you feel is wrong, the first step to freedom is to acknowledge the feeling and allow humility to burn away the shame. This will open your compassionate heart which can lead to forgiveness and acceptance. The next step to freedom is to make amends to those involved. The most powerful way is to speak to the person or persons involved. How they respond isn’t your business. As long as you are coming from your compassionate heart, from a place of truth and love, you will be taking a step towards freedom from the past. Sometimes the only way to do so is through prayer and through sending love out from your heart to whomever is involved in the story. Just as it is impossible to stay in jobs and relationships that no longer (or perhaps never did) harmonize with your soul, it is impossible for you to deny actions that you feel unrest about. You cannot sweep anything under the rug anymore.
The energy is gathering and expanding. All is opening into a new alignment. The old is still falling away—attachments to the old, the past, are being released and feelings of disconnection, unrest and disorientation are a result of the release. You are beginning to truly know yourself as multidimensional beings as you realize you are more than the stories you have told yourself, you are more than your remembered life experiences. Let go of what you think of as yourself and your stories and open to receive further information. This is a time of trust and inner knowing. Trust and connect to your soul.
Some people are feeling like they’re on the edge – they can no longer tolerate the discordant energies that they’ve been ignoring for years. They feel poised for a great change. Trust, you are ready for that change. So many people are realigning with new ventures and taking off on their new pathways.
As we begin to follow our hearts and our purpose instead of staying in survival mode, depression will begin to lift. Be patient if this isn’t happening to you yet. It is now virtually impossible to stay in work situations and relationships that make us feel miserable – that are not aligned with our highest, truest path and purpose. As you begin to follow the energy as to what your purpose is – what brings you excitement, energy, happiness and a feeling of contributing something valuable to humanity – you will become busy with this new energy – one thing will lead to another – the pathway will unfold – synchronicity will be all around you – you won’t have time for anxiety or depression. You will come to a point and suddenly look back and realize that you feel different.
As we continue advancing into higher vibrating energies, it is vitally important not to listen to the negative inner voice that comes up with reasons why you can’t do what you want to do. Banish that voice! It is a lie, and it is also an empty, old habit. It is time to let it go.
The Creator is sending waves of love throughout this Universe. You may feel the surges especially at night or in the morning when you’re laying in your beds. It may feel like shaking inside of you – as if there’s an earth tremor, but it is within you. This is the quickening. This is the energy rising. Enjoy it! Breathe it in. Your body is taking on a higher vibration and you can help it, accelerate it by really feeling it, breathing into it and smiling. Allow it in. It feels delicious. You may also feel physically cold inside, or extreme warmth. Both are related to incorporating the higher energies.
At times, this process may result in aches and pains, headaches, nausea, digestive or sinus issues. The energy of spirit is amping up and will affect the physical until we adjust. Then there is a pause before another surge of energy comes forth. The in-breath and the out-breath. It’s as if each time a great wave comes and raises you higher. Then it recedes and then another great wave rolls in and takes you higher again.
You receive this energy and transmit it out through your heart centers.
We say this to you – to all who read these words – you have a purpose here – believe in your light and your connection to the Divine! Find what brings you happiness – it is right in front of you. Ask your guides to help you open up to the energetic frequency that is your signature – like a fingerprint – your unique expression. Ask for help in clearing whatever is restricting you from embodying your true nature.
We are growing into Oneness. This means that we are collaborating consciously on our reality. It is no longer about competition – you fellow Lightworkers are not in competition with one another, doing your work of teaching, sharing information and healing. It is now about cooperation. It is about knowing that you are working together – walking similar paths that are in alignment and advancing towards the Center. So walk the path of light, love and truth… share your wisdom, learn from each other, support each other when the going gets tough.
And… listen to the children, for they carry much wisdom, truth and inner knowing…
Peace,
Nancy Leilah Ward
