March Energy Update from Newsletter.


America and the world continue to adjust to Obama at the helm. Watch for ongoing resistance by Baby and Young souls, who are completely confused by Obama’s charisma and ability to move energy through perseverance. In other words, most Republicans will continue to polarize, desperately trying to hold on to their power base and the old paradigm. Obama will set a new standard for business in the U.S over the next four years.

March energies start out slow, sometimes seemingly at a standstill, and then picks up with an energetic surge. The power of the Spring Equinox and the New Moon in Aires on March 26th will be revitalizing, infusing us with the courage to move in the direction of our desires. Take advantage of this boost of energy. Expect surges and slumps all year long.

The emphasis for March is Perseverance, which is the mode for 2009. Create a schedule for projects you want to accomplish, get them on your calendar and stick to the plan. Watch that apathy and depression don’t take hold and collapse your resolve. Don’t give up; we will get through this. This year's energy may be particularly hard for those individuals with a high frequency, mode of passion or chief feature of impatience.

"With ordinary talent and extraordinary perseverance, all things are attainable." -
Thomas Foxwell Buxton

If you are feeling down, make sure to get some support from your friends and family. The Full Moon in Virgo on March 10 supports collaboration and affiliation. It is essential to stay connected to your support group. Enjoy the Spring Equinox with an earthly celebration!

Who is Barack Obama?

Any soul who is willing to show up at this time in history and take responsibility for heralding in a whole new paradigm is an exceptional spirit indeed. So who is Barack Obama, what is his mission, why is he here now, and who was he in the past? As we have mentioned in earlier newsletters, Obama is a 7th level mature Priest with a Scholar essence twin in a King casting position. Priests tend to be ungrounded, however, Obama’s Scholar ET anchors the inspirational Priest energy with facts and structure. In fact, Obama’s essence has great passion for the data that he uses to inspire others.
Priests are natural leaders who are meant to inspire humanity to grow and evolve spiritually. As younger souls, Priests tend to carry out massive karmas, such as Hitler, who was a baby soul. These younger Priests tend to use their inspirational qualities to control the masses destructively.
As Priests grow in soul age, they mellow and create a higher octave of inspirational support. Princess Diana was a 2nd level mature Priest who inspired the world with her desire to help HIV patients and stop the use of landmines. Older soul Priests are beyond using their powers to karmically control others. The challenge Old Priests have is an expectation by people to save them, especially from their self-created problems. It goes something like, “Help me, Obama-wan, your our only hope.” Obama doesn’t allow this projected expectation, and instead makes reference for the need for everyone to take responsibility and do their part to make our current situation better.


Hawaiian born, Obama carries within his soul the “Spirit of Aloha.” While the word “aloha” is used for saying “hello” and “goodbye” and as an expression of love, it really describes a deep spiritual belief of the Hawaiian people. David Bray, a famous teacher and author of Hawaiian beliefs, interprets the Spirit of Aloha as, “Come forward, be in unity and harmony with your real self, God, and mankind. Be honest, truthful, patient, kind to all life forms, and humble.” This is something Obama demonstrates in all areas of his life.

Obama’s current life platform is Justice/Fairness/Equity. A platform is a principal that an essence chooses in a lifetime, which becomes the oundation of the life purpose. His declaration of fairness and justice for the middle class, his emphatic decree there will be no torture, his assertion that due process will be followed all reflect his platform. The Constitution of the U.S. is based on this same platform, which is why Obama’s spirit was attracted to becoming a Constitutional lawyer. Part of his current mission is to protect the Constitution from being eroded away.


People often ask if Obama was Abraham Lincoln since he refers to him repeatedly. We believe Lincoln was a 7th level old Sage, not a Priest. However, Obama was in a body at the time Lincoln lived, and even knew him and was considered Lincoln’s conscious because he initially criticized Lincoln for his views on slavery. That person was Frederick Douglass. Lincoln and Douglass shared the same Fairness platform in that life.
Douglass was born a slave, escaped to the North where he championed civil and women’s rights, and worked to abolish slavery. Even though it was illegal for slaves to be educated, he spent time with the slave owners’ kids and learned how to read and write. (His Scholar side!) The Equal Rights Party nominated Douglass as the Vice Presidential candidate along with Victoria Woodhull, the first woman to run for President. Douglass was considered a powerful orator and inspired nations and politicians with his speeches.

Obama’s current life is a completion of what he started then, which is common for souls to have a succession of lives to complete grand projects. Douglass was the first African-American to be invited to the White House as a guest, and Obama becomes the first African-American to become President of the U.S. Obama’s mission as a soul to break through the barriers of inequality for people with color in America is finally complete.



Another major past life for Obama was as Constantine I. Constantine I is attributed with the unification of the Roman Empire. He also became the first Roman Emperor to become a Christian, and under his rule stopped the persecution of Christians, allowing them to practice their religion and even restoring their property after it was confiscated. He was said to have felt responsible to God for the spiritual wellbeing of his people, leaving the Church in charge of how it was to be carried out.

Obama was a ruthless young soul in that life and created considerable karma during his military campaigns and as a leader. In that life, Obama demonstrated his natural ability to unite people, and he is currently putting those skills to use in unifying the globe, as much as humanly possible, as we go through this powerful shift in consciousness. He is also paying karma back to many people around the world by his international policies. We believe that his essence is looking to move to 1st level old by the end of this life.


These two past lives are foundational for Obama’s current mission. His essence is uniquely designed is to show up at various times in history to create equality and unification, moving humanity to the next level. Being part black, part white, a Christian with a Muslim background, Obama can have a unifying effect on nationally and internationally. Someone has to do it, and Priests are the powerhouses that can advance us forward.

2009 Overleaves

Overleaves


Role: Server
Secondary Role: Sage
Goal: Submission
Attitude: Spiritualist
Mode: Perseverance
Chief Feature: Martyrdom
Center: Intellectual Center / Moving Part
Frequency: 75 / 35


Role of Server
The Server is a solid, inspirational role in the Michael Teaching, whose primary focus is to serve. In a Server year, you may find yourself wanting to be of service to others, the earth or your favorite passion. Server energy is resourceful and willing to do whatever is necessary to get the job done. Because it is ordinal, you may find yourself humbly taking on tasks behind the scenes without need for recognition. This is a good year to reflect upon how your conduct impacts others and the earth. Headline in local Walnut Creek, California, newspaper: Join Celebration of Historic Inauguration and Get Involved in ‘Day of Service.’


Secondary Role of Sage
With Sage energy, everybody and their cousin will want to get their opinions heard this year. America shifted from 7th young to 1st mature, which will produce a lot of fear in the younger souls. Be prepared for lots of complaining, arguing and verbal attacks
We are in the midst of
a powerful transformation, which creates a high level of fear.
This fear will be the driving force behind peoples’ need to complain and argue about what to do with resources power.


Goal of Submission
This is also called Devotion, because it is the need to be devoted to something -- a cause, mission, situation, calling -- to feel satisfied. You may feel the need to dedicate or devote yourself to your marriage, ending world hunger, helping homeless in your community, getting healthy or paying off your debts. Princess Diana had the Goal of Devotion, which was reflected in her genuine desire to help HIV patients and end the use of land mines. Whatever you feel driven to do, take action. This is not the time to procrastinate.


Attitude of Spiritualist
Visionary and open to possibilities, this attitude can help you to see new avenues and paths to your life choices. Because it supports a strong connection to spirituality or religion, it assists one to be able to connect to Source and transcend the physical illusion. Spiritualist attitude is uplifting and creates hope. Spiritualist slides to Stoic in the Michael Teaching. If you aren’t anchored in spirit and a vision for yourself this year, you may slide to the negative pole of Stoic, which is resignation, and generally numb out. What is your vision in 2009?


Mode of Perseverance
This mode matches the energy of the Ox Year in Chinese Astrology. The ox just walks along at a plodding pace, one hoof at a time, until the job gets done. And that’s how we get through the year, with persistence and self-discipline, plodding along, until we achieve what we desire. Perseverance slides to Aggression, so at the beginning of 2009 we will see aggressive behavior, but by the Spring Equinox we definitely settle in to persevering.


Chief Feature of Martyrdom
Be prepared for people feeling sorry for themselves and claiming someone or something else is responsible for their hardships. The martyred individual is one who claims their situation is beyond their control and that they have no responsibility for their current problems. Blagojevich and Palin are demonstrating martyrdom, claiming
unfair treatment without taking any responsibility for their own behavior. Be on the lookout for corporations asking for handouts because, after all, it wasn’t their fault they are in dire straits currently. Individuals who feel wronged by another may seek retribution.


Intellectual Center / Moving Part
The Michael Teaching describes the intellectual center, moving part, as a year where we take action on our thoughts. Make a list of what needs to get done and then take action. The challenge is to follow through and complete what needs to be done without getting caught up in a nervous frenzy of ideas. Use the mode of perseverance to help you with completion.


Frequency of 75 initially, then lowering to 35
Frequency is measured from 0-100, and defines how fast a pace the energy moves. (100 being extremely fast paced) In the beginning of 2009, the pace surges to 75, but by the Spring Equinox the pace slows down to 35. For those high frequency individuals, the low pace may feel uncomfortable, as things may not being going fast enough for you. Wear some amethyst gemstones, as they will connect you to spirit, allowing you to let go of impatience.
