Q. Spiritually speaking, is our collective cup half full or half empty?

A. recession is quite natural immediately following a heart & mind expansion such as you have received in the early part of September. Remember this because you are all working with the Christ/Buddha integrated energies and will experience this expansion as many times as it takes for your transformation and integration with the divine light that is your self and all that is. We are not saying that there will be a repeat of the same events that hurled the consciousness of the planet to another level, a new life, but there will be a repeat of the expansion of the heart and mind you are individually and as groups, exploring, in these areas at this time.

As far as the cup being half full or half empty, there is a period of calm and bliss after every experience. And there is a period of calm and bliss before every experience. This is a divine paradox and to stand in the center of any paradox is to see both sides. To know, both sides. There is a third side working as an anchor but we address the paradox proper.

Actions of anger create shadows and a shadow for one side is to stand and believe on one side and off your center. It is a shadow of your self. The point of all of this is to collectively experience equality and to consciously create ‘no’ shadow. You have come a long way and you have a long way to go, by your clock. Time is an illusion of tremendous convenience.

You are here because you volunteered to experience every angle and to do this you create multiple simultaneous selves in order to engage as much of your soul fragments experiences, as many as it takes, for this exploration. The thoughts you have do not belong to you exclusively neither do they belong exclusively to a self in a parallel. They are very astral plane by nature and are influenced by spirit first, family, community, groupings, country, global universal and so on.

Discovering a paradox can be quite exciting for everyone. Especially when you discover that there was nothing to discover.
