Open,
this last post of yours is especially powerful.
Beyond personal honesty, which touches my heart always (and i feel it as one potent factor in the personal side of these changes), also the energy you evoked has a special "bouquet", fragile but strong, at the same time.
(Not to mention the ideas).

We all need some firing up, inspiration, sharing. And then we all need to go out and do our humble share.

-------------------------------

There were other very dark times, like Nazi Germany, or Ruanda, you name it... and so is the present moment... Our World has become a Hungry Ghost. Self-Devouring. And people (sorry, i reword: WE ALL) get caught up in a collective that makes us regress. If not inspired, not aware, sooner or later it will make us start to kill their neigbours, start to do things we shouldn't do. In fact we are doing it already! We are killing our plant and animal neighbours, and just how cruelly, and in what dark, indignant ignorance!

But here is another thought - to get us inspired, maybe?

There are these two seemingly opposing ideas about us humans here on Earth... According to one we are like a curse, locusts, or some Pathological Sickness; according to the other native and ancient teachings we are in fact (among other highly intelligent species) the Guardians of the Planet.

It was said that with the appearance of the kind of consciousness that humankind (too) has, Gaia herself has awoken to a level of consciousness. And as all these species, and Gaia, we are all interconnected, if the light of the soul of one dims, the light of all other species and Gaia dims as well.

So I do believe that human consciousness has a p.a.r.t.i.c.u.l.a.r. way to contribute. It's not more important than others, but it's unique. Collectively as humans to find our own special gift to this place, the one that we only as humans can deliver, is crucial now.

And on the personal level (too): we have to find our own unique gifts to be offered. On a daily basis. For this of course, the soul must be inspired, the spark of the soul needs to be alive else evolution stops, and regression begins. We need to inspire ourselves dutifully, day after day, moment to moment. It should be seen as spiritual muscle training. Strength won't just happen to us... We have to do it, work for it.

I do believe in the downgrading of humanity, but also that we are able to act against this. That we are not victims, or victims only. But one must see how there is a continuous pull toward regression, and entropy.

It is our spiritual duty to be inspired as much of the time as possible and not to give in to the darkening of the light here on Earth. Even in face of changes, even in face of our own death.

Because at the beginning of the millennia there was a Great Enlightenment (all those wonderful spiritual teachings suddenly become available, etc.), to me it seems it's petering out now.

Now is the time for personal input.

We can't just rely on "angelic forces" or "multidimensional energies" helping us on the way anymore. And what I see is that without the support of the incredible light infused into this world in the past 1-2 decades, too many people just go on consuming, and get sucked in, ignorant, unaware and helpless. OR: they keep looking for an illusionary, synthetic bliss and love and light, cutting themselves off the "sensual" (often meaning: painful) side of the state of things here and now.

This is a danger of the Now that I've noticed. Big words but humble acts!

And yes, as Open says, all this input might be to guide this world into dissolution, seemingly an end and the arising of another one (not seen clearly by all as yet).

thank you!
blessings,
R
