This is Part 2 of a transmission responding to the fear and fatigue I feel around socio-political change.

A’riquea:  This is a difficult time for empaths, because you are the heart of humanity. You feel the pain of all losses. You understand how things could be better through Love and compassion. It is not in your personal power, however, to change any of these shifts in societal power. Your work is more at ground level, person to person, and that is where you need to focus. When you allow your attention to rest on the macro level, you are not seeing the many many people who are also working on all the levels in between. Recall the millions of people in the streets to protest this month. A major shift is afoot. Like climate, society will not come to rest in a state that resembles its previous arrangement. And, as you know, these are all long term processes. 

Life will continue on, in some way or another, shifting and changing, which is its definition. How much you will witness in your lifetime is not something you can know. What you can know is whether you are making the differences that you are able on your own personal level. Are you functioning with Love and compassion? Are you creating harmony and community wherever possible? The connections are person-to-person. 

And now you are asking how this applies to your fatigue, and I think you already know the answer.

It’s related to where I place my attention.

This is true. If a significant amount of your energy is going into tracking and fretting over bigger environments, you will not have enough left to nurture yourself or the person-to-person relationships that are required in this time. Come Home. Come home to your body, and the present moment. Be where your feet are. Enjoy nature. Practice gratitude. Embody Love. Create inner space in your own energy field. 

It is one way to cope with the Shift, this level of change which is so destabilizing. It is also an evolutionary tool which humans will need, to navigate the next frontier in spirituality. Focus every day on expanding your own inner space, so that you are embodying that which you wish to see in the world. This is what we wish to see in the world. Let your attention rest in expanded space. 

A’riquea is encouraging us to expand our inner space. This means moving our focus away from intellect, time, and multi-tasking. It means moving our attention toward intuition, not-time, and presence. I will be providing more examples and practice exercises in future posts.
