I’ve been taking a closer look at how I choose to use my energy.  I have a tendency to spread myself too thin, and then I’m tired.  Of course, there is a real limit to anyone’s energy. How do we decide what to do and not do?

I’d like to think that I choose based on Life Force value—does the activity feel like a core engagement? But there is also the equation of investment: what I am putting into something and what am I getting out of it? How much of myself do I pour into other people/groups/activities? I can’t just give without refilling.

That leads me to ask, “Why am I doing this?” I tend to think I’m doing something because it interests me, because I’m engaged and learning. That is probably true, but who am I doing this for?  For someone else? For me? For both? Am I fulfilling a role? What is my underlying motivation?

A’riquea:  We have talked about this before, about the roles that people fill.* You are asking about something deeper, which is how the imprint that you come in with interacts in the world. This is a fairly complex arrangement because, as you know, there are so many levels of vibration in play. There is your own vibration, right now, in this place on your own journey. There is all of the vibration that you have absorbed throughout your life and that has modified your response up until now. There is all of the vibration created that brought the world to the place where you entered into it. 

And there is something else, which we have not really talked about before. There is also the vibration of where the Earth plane is located. The Earth is traveling. It is not a stationary object. It is a mass of collected vibration spinning through space, moving through other energy zones and influences. You can begin to imagine this but you can never comprehend it, because you are limited by the vibration of the Earth plane where you now exist. But this movement through space is creating the future. And that future also exists in the now. 

There are skills and manifestations you will need to exist in the future. The future is available to you now, but the manifestations are not. This is what makes this complex—that something can both exist and not exist at the same time. It is not something to be concerned about. You will want to continue your work on the Earth plane because this is where you are most effective right now. It is good to be aware of these other opportunities, beyond the present and beyond the Earth plane, because that is what will bring you into the future that is being created.

You are tired because you are draining your energy into pursuits that do not fit your cosmic mandate. Yes, you need to create space in your calendar, and that is because you need to be creating space in general. What you want to create are energetic openings that will be available for other things to come in and come through you. The type of activities you choose are important and so are the number of them, but what is most important is the space available in anything you do. This is the space you want to create.

Anything that locks you down into ego function will reduce the opportunity for space. You want to step out of ego, out of time, out of expectation, and into space. You need to inhabit space, expand into it and expand it into you. Become One with the energy of the Universe. Consciously become One. Consciously move with it. 

Stand in the echo.

Move in the echo. You are feeling it right now. Embody this feeling and you will know the way.

Beautiful. Thank you.

We acknowledge you. Always. And when you acknowledge us you are moving with the Universe. We are One.
