Before the meeting of 2-18-09 three interesting things occurred:
1. I forgot to plug in the laptop, so we don’t have video of the first 30 minutes or so. Managing electronics while in an altered state is a tricky proposition!
2. I requested that Eloheim summarize their teachings about fear.
3. I told a story.

The story was about my recent encounter with a police officer. I have been driving for about 26 years and had never been pulled over for a moving violation.

Recently, on my way through the Sonoma Plaza after dropping off some promotional materials for the Well Being Expo I am producing, I was pulled over for running a stop sign.

The experience continues to teach me quite a lot!

The officer was tucked in at a four-way stop keeping an eye out for folks running the sign. I saw the officer and actually thought, “Wow, he is looking for people to pull over for running the stop sign.” When he quickly pulled in behind me I thought, “He must have somewhere to go.” When he put on his red light I thought, “He must need me to get out of his way!”

He didn’t.

By this time my heart was racing and my body felt so strange. I didn’t have a clue what he wanted or why he had pulled me over. I didn’t know what one does in this situation AND, I kept remembering that Eloheim had used the example of getting pulled over as an example of how to deal with fear.

So, I watched my fear as best I could. It was on the brink of being emotionally overwhelming. However, I really knew that this feeling had a lot to do with my core emotion (everyone has one and mine is ‘fear of being kicked out of the tribe’). I kept watching it and tried to also keep my wits about me.

The conversation with the officer seemed to go on forever, but it was probably only a few minutes. He said that I ran the stop sign. I said that I knew the stop sign was there, felt that I had stopped, and that I had seen him watching the intersection so it is unlikely I would have ran a monitored stop sign.

Then he said the first very interesting thing (I am paraphrasing), “it is strange that we could have such different views on the same event.” Ah, I loved that comment! That put me into a more conscious place immediately. I didn’t find it strange at all. I thought that was the bit that made more sense then anything else that was happening!

You see, I was talking on my cell phone while I was driving. It is legal to talk on your cell hands free in California, but I still felt strange about doing it. Plus, I was leaving a message for a friend who I was ‘worried’ about. I WAS IN LOW VIBRATION.

I feel that I attracted the officer’s attention with my low vibrational state. He saw it as running the stop sign. I saw it as being less than fully conscious of what I was doing.

Once I got that big Aha, things shifted somewhat. I could feel the fear voice saying things like, “this is going to cost you money, you are going to have to go to a class, etc.” But, I knew that it wasn’t about money or time, it was about this moment. So, I focused on what what actually happening right now.

I was able to keep money/time fears at a minimum. The overwhelming adrenaline is another story completely though. Wow, the body response in this situation was so intense!

At some point during our conversation, I heard the small voice say, ‘make the request.’ I asked the officer if he could give me a warning. He then said the second most interesting thing of the conversation, he said, ‘How can I give you a warning for something you don’t think you did?’ I LOVED THAT RESPONSE! It was so conscious.

I replied that I would consider this driver’s training 25 years later and I promised to be more conscious about stopping fully at stop signs.

He said, OK, and let me go with a warning.

Whew! Shortly thereafter my cell phone rang. After stopping the car (!) I answered. It was a good friend saying, “My husband just saw you get pulled over on the plaza and I want to make sure you are ok. I am hosting a meeting at my house in five minutes, but I knew I had to call right away!”

Which goes to show:
1. Sonoma is a small town.
2. I have great friends.
3. I didn’t get kicked out of the tribe! (ah, the healing of the core emotion, such a powerful process)

The residual processing of the body’s reaction to this was much more difficult to process than the actual experience. I was in a lot of discomfort for the remainder of the evening. It has taught me so much that I am actually grateful for it now, but WOW was it hard at the time.

I share this story as it informs the meeting of 2-18-09 and the transcription I am including in this message. It is a very powerful summary of their teachings on fear and includes their take on my experience with the officer.

Eloheim 2/18/09

Hello everyone. There are many, many things that we can talk about tonight but let’s just briefly address the story Veronica told about the policeman. It’s very interesting to us that she told this to you all because a part of her sees you as the “tribe.” In the past, telling a story like that would have made her feel very vulnerable. So there’s progress happening, we want to acknowledge that to her because we know that even telling you what happened would have brought up a sense of jeopardy in the past.

So we understand that you have an interest in the idea of adrenaline, the feeling you get when something’s going in a direction that feels scary or dangerous or even life threatening. And, Donna, you asked how that fits in with an athlete getting a hole in one or shooting a three-point basket, so let’s look a quick look at that before we get into what we had planned to talk about.

When you find yourself in a situation that feels threatening, whatever you regard as threatening, the body goes into survival mode. When you find yourself elated, the body’s not in survival mode. That’s the big difference. So what Veronica was labeling adrenaline — and of course adrenaline has a function in that process — it’s really not an accurate description. What she was really experiencing was a threat to survival and the body’s flight or fight response, which of course is fueled by adrenaline. But let’s not blame the adrenaline for this because as Donna pointed out adrenaline shows up in other ways which you probably enjoy or wouldn’t want to miss.

So the correct languaging here would be to say that the fight or flight response kicked in and part of the issue is confusion around what to do. Remember she said, “I have no experience in this situation; I don’t know what to do.” And the answer is, be conscious — because you’re not the person you used to be, and so even if you’ve had the experience of being pulled over before or whatever else might be going on in your life, and you’re dealing with the resultant energy rush, don’t assume out of habit that you know what to do. You need to ask in that moment, just like any other moment, “What is this teaching me? How can I be more conscious? What am I learning? What is the aha here?”

For Veronica the aha was to make the request for the officer to give her a warning. “ Make the request.” That was the aha. It was a very quiet voice in the back of her head saying, “make the request”. She wouldn’t have had access to that information a year ago. She didn’t have the guts to ask a year ago. And the belief that this was a possible outcome wasn’t there a year ago. In our example of the box of 64 crayons which we’ve been using continuously since we first brought it up, those crayons weren’t in the box then. The only crayons in the box before were responses like breaking down and crying, feeling like a victim, giving up. Some of that was still in there of course. Those three colors were there but there were other colors too and she was able to use them.

So when the body starts screaming, “we’re gonna die! we’re gonna die! we’re gonna die!” — and it does to some degree or other depending on the situation — the response is to ask, “What am I learning? What is this teaching me? What is this showing me? What can I learn from this? Where’s the aha?” Sometimes you can just skip the first ones and go right to where’s the aha? Because that question is addressed to your Soul.

Remember, you have to be in the moment and you have to be wondering what you’re learning in order to request an aha, because aha’s come in the moment and the aha says “teach or show me something new here please.”

So the immediate response to fear can be a request for an aha. “How can I see this differently please?” Just remember those other crayons, because when you’re caught up in the fear response you’re only are coloring with a couple of crayons and really there are 64 in a box. In every moment there are more crayons you could use than you are currently aware of and you get to use them by requesting the aha. That’s really the most concise way we can put what we’ve been talking about for weeks. You can be conscious that you’re in a fear response rather than letting fear run away with you and take you into habit, take you into the way you used to do it, take you into the cascading fear response — where one fear leads to a more primal fear and you’re suddenly being five years old and hear some authority figure telling you you’re bad, bad, bad.

Or fear can make you jump from one fear to the next, to the next, from money worries, to housing worries, to no one loves me and how will I ever get my car fixed? Concurrent fears. You can realize that you’re in one of those patterns and catch yourself. You can watch the fear and recognize that it’s only an option rather than a mandate, and then request to connect with your Soul through the aha. That little scenario we just described, which we’ve been working with you on over the last few weeks, is the absolute key to the lock in the door of ascension at this time. From our perspective, there’s a non-negotiable need for you to grasp and start processing with that kind of understanding, because fears take you out of the moment. Almost all fears, when you step back, are based in the past or they’re based on expectations of the future, or on judgments, beliefs about what it should be like; fears are very rarely if ever actually based on the moment.

Veronica’s experience with the police officer was based on the fact that she had been pulled over but her reactions to the situation — the things that were asking for her attention — were not based in that moment. They were based on, “oh God, what’s going to happen? I’m going to have to take driver classes, pay a big fine, or my insurance will go up.” Or they were based on core emotions saying that the authority figure dictates my survival or parental issues feeling as though she were being lectured by a father figure. These fears had nothing to do with the moment. The only thing that was in the moment was her spiritual choice to be conscious about what was going on and to continually invite more consciousness in. When the officer said “I saw it this way” and she said “I saw it a completely different way,” that fact became the interesting thing in the moment. That was sort of the mini aha. And then consciousness built around that. Do you see how that works?

You can be aware of the fear driving the situation but the moment is around consciousness, what’s really happening here: “I want to be conscious of what’s happening here.” It’s sort of like while you’re lining up a golf shot you hear the birds chirping and you hear somebody laughing and you hear the plane going overhead and you see your fellow golfers out of the corner of your eye. All those other things are calling for your attention and maybe if you weren’t lining up a golf shot all those things would be fascinating. But you’re choosing to focus about what’s happening right in the moment with your golf shot. It’s a very similar process with fear. When the fears are saying, “hey, hey, hey, hey!” you’re saying, “I’m going to focus on this moment. In this moment my father is not here yelling at me; in this moment no one’s trying to put me to death; in this moment I’m not having to pay a fine; in this moment I’m not having to go to driver education class. In this moment I am having a conversation and I want to be as conscious as possible while this occurs.”

This is an evolving thing. You have a little exchange and you bring consciousness to that, and then the other person says something else so you bring more attention and more attention. As the conversation goes along different fears pop up. And just like during the golf shot you keep choosing to focus. We really want to make sure you’re all getting this, understanding that fears are simply one of the options. For a long time you haven’t been aware that there was any other options than that. We want to help you open your eyes and your senses to the other options that exist, to the other crayons in the box. You’re driving your physical form so passionately toward transformation. You’re constantly getting fears thrown up in your face to be evaluated because the body resists change and spiritually you are demanding change.

That place of conflict is going to be alive in you probably until around June, but you will be called upon over and over to learn to process fears in a new way. It will feel intense. Around June there’s another big energetic shift that’s waiting to come in and you won’t get the benefit of that new energetic shift if you’re still dallying with fears in the way you’ve always dallied with them in the past. So we’re in a cram course here to observe, be conscious and experience fears in a new way. It doesn’t mean they go away, just like the birds don’t stop chirping and the planes don’t stop flying overhead just because you decided to focus on hitting that golf ball. The fears are there for a reason; biologically there’s a perfectly good reason for fear to show up. It keeps your body going.

But the quantity of fears that the body throws up are not needed for survival. They just habitually show up in order to keep you in an old pattern that’s felt safe because it’s familiar. There’s a huge number of habitual fears that you deal with every day and the challenge in front of you is to retrain yourself to let some of those habits go. That’s the training period you’re in right now. That’s why we spent four weeks talking about fear. You’ve got the ability, the consciousness level and the vibrational level, the energy on the planet is supporting this. Because of what’s going on politically and economically you’ve got every opportunity on the planet to see fear all around you. That’s one of the reasons there’s such a crisis of fear in your communities right now. The lightworkers are healing the relationship to fear and transforming the energetic in support of the quantum leap that’s possible in 2009 not only for the lightworkers but for society in general.

That’s a long introduction but we wanted to address some of the things that came up during Veronica’s sharing and also give you a summary of where we’ve been in the last three weeks and where we’re headed. That way we can help you frame your questions and support you in where you’re finding challenges around this new way of being.
