We are living magic... yet is so easy to get hypnotized out of knowing that by society.

I have 3 coins that I had made long ago that I sometimes wear around my neck. They remind me of who & what I am and they can 'refocus' me if a get a little figutzisplattled.

On the left coin, facing front is the Egyptian ankh, reminding me that I am an eternal being. On the flip side of that coin is an image of the archangel Michael. I am not religious, but it reminds me that I am also forever protected by righteousness when I follow my heart (and being that my name is Michael.. being the cool bad ass angel with the blurple sword does kind of appeal to me.. wink). On the right coin, is my birth sign, Gemini, which reminds me of my yin and yang, my light and dark, my amazing goodness but also accepting my shadow self as well without condemnation. On the reverse of that coin is the sun, reminding me to always be guided towards light (my birthday is the summer solstice June 21st).

The most important coin, hanging in the center of the three, and which bares most mention in this group, is of course the fool, and he is juggling the three coins I wear. On the flip side of this central coin is a wizard.

And so I consider myself a fool, guided by magic through eternity, forever seeking more creativity in the light, yet accepting all sides of myself both light and dark, and knowing I am forever protected by even higher forces in this never ending process of eternal creativity.

Love, Light, LAUGHTER, Kindness & Creativity ALL-ways,

- Michael - or the Low High Magi Trickster Blackout Master Mosquito & Master Swatter.

You are not your job, your titles, your possessions, your degrees, your lovers, your relationships, your place of residence, your social security number, your ID, your bills, your worries, your bank account, your age or your body. You are the timeless being that created & perceives itself through those things, and you have the power to play or not play that game. When someone asks me "what do you do?" looking for some title to pin me down, I laugh and say "EVERYTHING!" - Blackout

This states the shadow side becomes irrelevant so you no longer have to analyze aspects of yourself. Do you agree?, and how do you know when you have accepted this shadow? I believe you are pure illumination, your shadow can't even be pure dark, it must be blurple.

The Light With No Shadow
It sounds like a contradiction. How can one possibly have a light that does not create a shadow when it touches something physical? But it is the fundamental underlying principle of the soul’s wisdom and its purpose.

The soul is the conduit from the Source to the world of our physical reality. Everything that has been created and everything that will be created comes from the Source. This energy of creation is the light with no shadow.

When your soul is able to bring forth the creative energy of the Source, it brings light to people. It gives them energy and vitality to move forward in life. Everything that it touches is illuminated. This illumination is the raw material for growth.

There is never any worry that this energy is going to be used for evil purposes. If people embrace it, then they will take an active part in the growth and evolution of humanity. If people turn away from it, it is not available for them to use in a selfish or self-serving way.

You need only to direct your intention toward aligning yourself with your own soul to begin the process of allowing the light to shine forth. This also means that you no longer need to analyze the things you want to change about yourself. Once the light shines through you, the often called 'shadow side' becomes irrelevant as it is replaced by all the aspects of you that work well. The strong parts of you grow and become strengthened by the light.

I actually kind of agree with this. Before one can agree with this though, one needs to accept and embrace one's flaws, mistakes, shadows, dark sides, and such as wonderful learning tools. Basically you have to love and forgive yourself, cause you can't really do that very well to others before you 'get' it yourself.

The only issue I might take with this - is the thought that once you 'embrace the light' that there will 'never be anymore dark'. I'm not so sure of this... but it may just be interpretation of the specific wording.

In a sense, maybe it is accurate... perhaps so, because it does seem that once you come to a certain spiritual understanding of yourself and your eternal nature and connection to 'all that is', then, it isn't as though darkness or evil or manipulation or corruption or deception or things such as that just 'vanish', but the power they had over YOU does. When one truly embraces one's own self and opens up the heart and lives in joy and illumination of following one's inner creative bliss, then the 'terror' of life that many carry with them just sort of disappears. You just don't really 'worry' about evil so you don't focus on it or on stamping it out. You focus on the things you love, and should some 'evil' come again along the way after your illumination, you brush it away like you might an annoying mosquito. No biggie. Some people get bit by a lot of mosquitoes, and then some people you'll notice mosquitoes pretty much leave alone, but every once in a while, one bugger will still get in there.

In either case, both parties would be well advised to swipe the mosquito away and move themselves to an area where there are less of them. This is a far better thing to do then deciding that one must wipe out or eliminate all the mosquitoes in the world because they are annoying and they bite people. Guess what, it's just not gonna happen. mosquitoes are part of the world and no one can kill all of them but you can live in a nice place that is free of them and let them be where they are gonna be and you be where you are gonna be and just forget about it and get over it already.

Supposed 'evil' is the same way. It's part of the world and free will and experience and contrast in general and you don't have to 'stamp it out or beat it'. It will do what it does, you have to focus on what you want to do and move to that area.

Various individuals and groups of people on earth throughout time have thought that 'they' were the light and that they had absolutely identified other people who were the 'evil useless annoying mosquitoes' that had to be swatted and totally eliminated. Hitler thought the Jews were the mosquitoes, the klu klux clan thinks that black people are the mosquitoes, plenty of black people have thought that white people were the mosquitoes, plenty of conquesting white people thought that everyone else but them must surely be the mosquitoes. Some poor people think all rich people are the mosquitoes, and some rich people think all poor people are the mosquitoes. Let's not even GET into how many religions think that people of other religions are the mosquitoes and are going to the raid motel in the afterlife while they are getting mosquito free paradise because THEIR God is the only one true God and has the ultimate swatter.

I can go on with this for this for days naming the groups, and their version of the mosquitoes and there attempts to swat them out completely...but i think you get the point.

We have all been the mosquito and we have all been the person with the swatter.

Once you get that, or you get that idea in whatever way works for you, you kind of just chuckle and step out of the room filled with various types of mosquitoes and various people running around trying to swat them. You take a breath of fresh air and wonder why you waisted so much time trying to swat these silly mosquitoes in the first place when you could have just moved away from them and hung out with a bunch of great other people who have no interest, nor pay any attention to mosquitoes other than being smart enough to brush one away if it should happen to appear, but that's it.. just brush it away, you don't need to HATE it.

Then you are illuminated, then you can just focus on what you love, and you are in the light, the love, the creative heart space of your true self meeting others doing the same and living miracles in every moment...and spiraling each other's creativity infinitely faster in the ever lasting present because you now have so much more fun time available to you that you used to take up worrying about mosquitoes.

Let us not get too snug though.

Some would think that that's the end of it.. you're just gonna die and be part of God again in some glowy white light of everlasting bliss sugar smacks.

I doubt God's that boring.

Hey guys, I know there's no mosquitoes in the room, and we're all in heaven now... but what is that 17 headed durephuud colored turatobeastascorpabugtillian in the corner doing?

Guys...? Guys!!?

uh oh.
