On the path, you'll have to get used to going into 'the desert' - an inner landscape that will call you at times; it's where there's some inner convolution of consciousness that needs to be unravelled. Be prepared for it to feel harsh. There will be no immediate answers, no soft shoulder to cry on. Yes, the Gods will be with you, and they'll be smiling, but not answering your longing, which can make it feel all the more challenging. Yet going into the desert is necessary, and your apparent aloneness essential.

Here's what the purpose is, and encouragement for dealing with it...

The Shift accelerates right across our planet; the patterns are falling clearer into view now, and it's essential ascending people equalise with what's going on, because that's how you find the path of light through it. Here are the developing patterns: (1) There remains the zombified denial of society, desperately clinging to 'business as usual'; (2) Gaia is responding predominantly through the Pole Shift, which is accelerating earthquake and volcanic activity, lowering her magnetic shield, progressively opening the biosphere to transformative cosmic cleansing; (3) Meanwhile plenty in the Spiritual Mainstream are still languishing behind blinkers - thinking there's a sustainable 3D solution.

The unwinding cleansing through the 4D and into 5D IS the solution. Let's get real folks!

I've been touching on the subject of responsibility with many of my clients recently. Many people see the pain of those around them, and feel a certain sense of responsibility for it. Particularly when they judge what they've said, or the actions they have taken, has led to pain in another. Its one theme I'll be touching on in my book 'Awakening into Change' coming out in autumn (fall) of 2018. And because it's such a sensitive subject I thought I would go deeper here into exactly why I say you are NOT responsible for other people's suffering.

I just came across this awesome video, put to the music track, "Are we Human or are we Dancers?" Check it out, it has some amazingly inspirational clips celebrating just what it means to be "human". But then also, you get a great sense of something beyond. And that's what I often feel about this curious experience of 'being human'. It feels, at times, very dense and physical, hence we can dance!

In case you weren't aware, one of the biggest synchronicities that times exactly with accelerating climate change, is the accelerating pole shift. As this unfolds, the earth's magnetic shield lowers, which increases the transformation effect on our biosphere from cosmic radiation. That's clearly now on the increase. It's why volcanic and earthquake activity are also escalating. Personally I find it amazing that society continues with 'business as usual', in the wake of the gathering 'perfect storm'. It's time to reappraise how we spend our lives and what are the true priorities?

Hey spiritual folk! Have you got your head around "cryptocurrency" yet? I wouldn't blame you for a minute if you hadn't - all that techno jargon could be enough to put any sensitive soul off. But hang in there just a minute, if you can, because I feel given to represent a view that cryptocurrency is certainly one signal, that reflects a mobile shift of resources and energy from the old world, 3D consciousness, and towards more 5D consciousness. Why do I say that? Let me put it as simply as possible, with minimal techno jargon.

Update note: Since I wrote this article back in 2018, the revelance of cryptocurrency and the blockchain tecnology has greatly enhanced, especially in light of fiat money deflation effects due to government bailouts in wake of the virus pandemic. Although it does offer the possibility to escape onto decentralised trading platforms with more empowerment for the individual, institutions are getting involved. I still believe however the blockchain technology signals a movement towards general decentralisation, personal fluidity and sovereignty. So I would encourage an exploration, especially in light of recent pandemic developments.

I think one of the biggest challenges in living the awakened state, is how you bring the expansiveness of the divine into the old world reality?

When you get into the practice, it's not hard to let go...in meditation for example. And when you're skilled in a 3D sense, it's not that hard to create. But how about bringing the expansiveness into creativity, into daily awakened living? That's not always easy - people tend to bounce from one state to the other. The real awakened skill, is to integrate one INTO the other...

Every day is a new moment, a new possibility. What will you create and how will you create it? If we can find the most aligned way of living and being, then we'll progressively surrender into the divine flow, which will speak magically through us. You'll get the most sublime reflections that will sing you alive. The key is to always begin with what you're creating now. Why did you create it? You'll witness the shadow and the light. Explore what 'skin' you now need to shed - what new aspect of beingness can it make way for?

In November of 2017 whilst on Openhand's 5D Shift World Tour, Katie, one of the Openhand Facilitators experienced a deep internal process. We were in a very sacred area of Australia, near Byron Bay, close to the crystalline Mount Warning. In brief, she felt the activation of the "Rainbow Serpent" through her being. Intuitively, I instantly knew what that meant. To me, it represents the reactivation of all the colours of the human sister/brotherhood - the "Original" human soul energy - that has been so distorted and suppressed through history. The conditions are ripe, it's time to reactivate the Rainbow Serpent in all of us...

In 1973 the psychic Ingo Swan traveled to Jupiter and reported it had wrings around it like Saturn. He was roundly laughed at! That is until the space probe Voyager traveled there several years later and actually photographed what he'd seen. They laughed no more! Interdimensional travel becomes possible when we get out of the 3D box. Doing so has widely profound benefits to our lives, because the Universe is influencing us through the dimensions. Better to be understanding and aligned with the flow. Mulit-dimensionality is now encroaching into mainstream thinking. Let's begin to live the dream now, that our minds may soften, and open to enormous possibility...

Hi Everyone, greetings newbies and old hands. The field called me to have a brief, but meaningful, exploration of authenticity and personal sovereignty at this time. It's fundamental to the Openhand philosophy to encourage and help build these qualities. It's all about reflecting frequencies of being that people might resonate with, and feeling those for themselves inside. Be aware, that a good reflection is going to do one of two things, and ideally both...

The 5D Shift rolls on. And even though the greater picture might not be recognised or understood by the masses, nevertheless, it continues to influence us all, impacting every single aspect of our lives. Everything is consciousness. Everything is connected to the torsional flow which, no matter what density we find ourselves buried in, wants to compel our souls back to the source. For Gaia, the current transition means a massive shift of consciousness into the Fifth Density, which will leave no stone unturned.
Right now, I perceive we've entered what's called the "Inflexion Point" in the shift.
What is that and how might it be affecting you?...
