ENERGY REPORT
AUGUST 2010
( note: Remember to examine July's Report for validation or insight in retrospect, and to learn more background about the Attitude that is in effect for this period of time. )
( note: Go here to learn more about basic terminology and a basic introduction to the michael teachings! )
As July shifts into August, an interesting, pivotal window is in place for many who have been examining their perspectives and philosophies about "what is possible" in terms of original intentions vs current assessments. It could be said this pivotal window is the meeting ground between the tangible and intangible, or a realization or breakthrough of sorts that would allow for focus on fully implementing ideas.
This kind of pivotal window is known as a Nexus in our teachings. A Nexus is a crossroads of various versions of reality on literal levels known as "parallel realities," but also on symbolic levels that could be seen as various philosophical interpretations of reality. At these crossroads the realities either Converge, or Diverge.
A Nexus can happen on Personal, Community, and Global levels, and in this particular report we speak of a Global Level. When a Nexus is experienced Globally, it usually means there is some kind of representation in the media that has the world's eyes, so to speak, focused on it. In this case, there is quite a bit of focus on the British Petroleum Oil Geyser, and the management of that event.
When a Convergence happens, there is a kind of cohesiveness and wholeness that comes during that shift, interlacing various perspectives, interpretations, and stances about reality into one. This happens on a literal, Quantum level, but can also be seen as a symbolic Convergence of shared attitudes. When a Divergence happens, there is a kind of fragmenting and division that comes during that shift, delineating and clarifying the more incompatible versions of reality so that they can go on in separate directions to be explored. Again, this happens on a literal, Quantum level, but can also be seen as symbolic. A Convergence or a Divergence, both, tend to have a theme about which the merging or diverging happens.
In looking at the upcoming shift occurring between the 27th and the 30th of July, we had anticipated a Convergence, a merging of realities that might feel as if they have come back together in a way that might translate into feeling "back on track," bringing a sense of focus, direction, and solid footing to most of our students. However, in the weeks since we have looked at this, we now see that while this is still technically a Nexus we would call a "Convergence," it does appear that a kind of conclusive Divergence is involved. In other words, rather than a branching out of parallels, some will simply end.
In this case, it appears that this Nexus will focus on a profound awareness of what needs to be stripped from your investments you may have been inclined to hang on to as a form of false security, rather than as a form of possibility. In general, what can be stripped away would be those perceptions and efforts in your reality that represent your loss of creativity, your disheartened paths, your sense that nothing matters, and your general jadedness.
This Nexus is a kind of rejuvenation of your Overleaves in a way that might be said to bring an exciting re-emphasis on a sense of risk, awe, and inspiration to the Personality. To fully embrace this, and to fully experience the merging of inner perspectives and realities that represent your willingness and want to get back on track, it would require that a realization take place. This realization would be about the recognition of what you have done to anchor yourself to old, outdated reasons for Not Doing, Not Being, Not Having. Those old, outdated ideas are up for conclusive release (again) during this Nexus.
When there are parallel versions of reality that will come to an end, some may experience a low-grade, or even an obvious, agitation and anxiousness over the few weeks prior to the shift. It appears that many of our students may have been experiencing this over these past weeks. This might have felt like a strange mix of forcing oneself to be present for the demands of life around you while also feeling terribly disconnected from the moment. Some have reported this as being like an anticipation of hopeful possibilities, but while having no control over immediate focus; a feeling of short-circuiting, but continuing onward. This is because there was a partitioning happening during those weeks as you almost-literally moved "what you wish to release" over to "one side of you," and "what you wish to keep" has been moved to the "another side" of you. We would suggest that this not be taken literally, of course, but the description is quite apt for the kind of subtle division that some may have felt within. Another way to understand the past few weeks might be that a kind of defragmentation has occurred, moving blocks of energy around within you in ways that, when defragmenting is complete, will allow the body and Personality to function even more effectively.
With a realization that one must truly END the possibilities (parallels) tied up in energies anchored to false securities, disheartening disappointments, and jadedness, as a means to make room and focus for new possibilities and updated potentials, then the Nexus might be experienced as both a freeing and a dying.
Some may find themselves particularly emotional or sporadic over those dates, while others may slip easily into a sense of solid confidence. However it is experienced, most of our students might find that there is a definitive shift in awareness toward what is inspiring and possible, rather than toward what is disappointing and distracting.
Because this is a shift that includes the ending of realities on such a mass scale, we would not be surprised if this is represented by a pocket of population exiting in a noticeable quantity, particularly those who simply cannot fathom possibility beyond the outdated anchors that have left life with little sense of potential. This is not to say that all who die within that time frame did so because of such an assessment, but that it is worth examining for validation if a large number exit. This wave of exiting appears to be, in part, because "reality" is suddenly, surprisingly leaning toward potential and possibility, and those who cannot or will not contribute to that will find their own versions of life that will remove them from the momentum of collective creation, or simply opt out altogether for now. And to expand upon this, we do not mean that some "utopian" future is now in alignment; we simply mean what we say: the emphasis is turning toward possibility, rather than overwhelm.
With all of this being said, we can say that August might be a month tentative with experimentation, cautious anticipation, and some focus on the tangible elements that give the Personality a sense that its desires are possible. It would be a gentle, sensitive step forward into what has been sensed as exciting and inspiring, while keeping the Personality feeling safe and present.
To help Personality and Body to feel safe and present over August, we think it would be helpful to bring more awareness to the process of bathing, swimming, or any activity that submerges the body, or parts of the body, in water. Even in the process of washing hands, bringing an awareness to that moment can help. What we mean by bringing an awareness to the moment is to simply know that you are doing what you are doing. Feel the water, know the intentions of the moment, and acknowledge the benefit for the body in some way, such as in the pleasure, the relief, the satisfaction. While taking a shower, give special attention to your skin, to the soap that moves across your body, to the scents involved, to the temperature, etc. This practice may seem unrelated to any larger patterns, but they are directly related. The more one includes his or her body in moments when nurturing is in effect, the more present and alive the body will be when your attention is elsewhere. Many of you carry your body around as if it is, at best, an inconvenience, and at worst, your enemy. Bringing active cohesion between your Personality and Body helps to bring cohesion between you and your life, your soul, and your higher patterns of intent.
Helpful thoughts over August might be:
1) IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO START (AGAIN.)
2) I AM HERE, NOW.
We realize these may sound cliche, but those phrases might be helpful for bringing one back to the present so that one can feel safe and full of potential. Those phrase might help to remind you that you do not have to be fragmented and distributed through Time to such an extent that you feel that what you Do, Feel, or Have is moot. Those things are far from moot.
August does not have any particular dates of concern, but we will remind you that KEY DATES over JULY are July 27-30 as a Nexus that is a Convergence focuses on Breakthroughs, Solutions, and implementing long-term plans related to those breakthroughs. It is a Nexus that essentially focuses on "Keep Trying until you feel you are Doing, Being, Having as you intended."

Energy Report: July 2010
Reading time: 8 - 14 minutes
ENERGY REPORT
JULY 2010
July marks the shift of emphasis from the MODE of the year to the ATTITUDE for the year. We remind you that the energy represented by the GOAL and MODE does not dissipate, but that it is built upon. In this case, the Attitude of Spiritualist is building upon the Goal of Dominance, and the Mode of Power, and of course, the Role of Sage for this year.
July through September tends to be a "season" that explores the collective philosophies and general filter of perception that most are using in terms of looking at, and interpreting, the world and world events. Though everyone will have their own filter of interpretation, personal philosophies, Attitudes, etc, there is still a general perception that is generated from the masses, often reflected in world events, news, politics, and other shared phenomena.
The Attitude is the "hub" of every Personality. The entire Personality is affected by the Attitude. The Attitude is central to the Personality in the same way that a hub is central to a wheel; the Personality is only ever as strong and capable of movement as the strength of that hub. The Attitude is like the hub in that if it is weak, bent, or heavy, it can throw off the movement of the wheel in ways that range from complete lack of navigation, to a crippling roll. It could be said, then, that these months of July through September are kind of opportunity for tuning up the personal Attitude by examining the collective Attitude.
For 2010, we see the collective Attitude best described as SPIRITUALIST.
Each of the Attitudes describes one of 7 basic philosophies that have come to be described and studied through history. Spiritualism could be described as the philosophy of the immaterial, intangible, and non-physical as potential forces to consider. This philosophy can range from the more obvious spirituality that is often contained in religion, and personal values that include the concept of a soul with realms beyond the physical, to the intangibilities, hypotheses, and theories of science, along with thought, emotion, and anticipated long-term consequences. The Spiritualist philosophy does not always manifest as stereotypical religious, pagan, new age, or other metaphysical spirituality, but can manifest as a consideration of possibilities, long-term consequences, and the factor of thought and emotion as it plays in the world of action and result. For the most part, we see the latter as how Spiritualist is manifesting in 2010 among people.
Regardless of your personal philosophies, or your Personality's Attitude Overleaf, the world is "looking through" the lens of the Spiritualist at this point, with an emphasis on the more mundane aspects of this philosophy. The British Petroleum oil geyser has helped to bring this Spiritualistic Attitude into focus for many people across your species. Many "lessons" are being learned on many levels among people because of this event. This is not to say that the British Petroleum accident was part of any plan to "teach a lesson," because that is simply not the case, and in fact, is never the case with disasters or catastrophes on any level. Personalities and Souls often seek to extract lessons from painful or tragic experiences that are part of the nature of the Physical Plane, but these tragedies are not imposed upon the animals, plants, and people simply for the sake of "learning." They are things that "just happened," and one can learn from, or ignore, these events, and one can learn with or without tragedy and harm.
An aside: True "accidents" are rare, and have quite traceable patterns of cause and effect, but this ability to trace the patterns does not mean that such accidental events are generated from some conscious or unconscious intent to learn from them. Often what are deemed "accidents" are merely results that are unwanted, unexpected, and unintended, but still a result of patterns that can be traced back through choices and actions. Keep in mind that we do not consider anything an accident that was anticipated by Essence or Personality, which gives one a wide sphere of vision. A True Accident is one that is not anticipated by Essence or Personality. Learning occurs after-the-fact of any event, whether that event was controlled and anticipated, or chaotic and a complete surprise.
The Spiritualist Attitude has the greatest capacity for True Intelligence as it has the natural inclination for grasping the long-term consequences of thought, feeling, and action. It may be thought that those who are professional scientists and researchers are those who would not have Spiritualist as an Attitude, but something more along the lines of Skeptic or Realist, but that is not the case. Truly scientific thought comes from the imagination, visions, and the by-passing of logic that is necessary for breakthroughs.
All Attitudes have the capacity for True Intelligence, but Spiritualist defaults to embracing the emotional, intuitive, perceptive forms of navigation, which are important elements of True Intelligence that other Attitudes can tend to reject, resist, or limit to specific contexts. The Spiritualist does not restrict intelligence to logic, and embraces the perceptive and intuitive, and this can be its strength or its weakness. The Positive Pole of Spiritualist is Verification, which allows for possibility, anticipation, and potential, but elaborates upon those qualities and validates them through the combined use of logic, intuition, and feeling. Validation for the Spiritualist is done through a loop of awareness that seeks to match possibility, pattern, and probability against actuality. The Negative Pole is Belief, which throws out all logic, intuition, and feeling and simply decides what is valid, or accepts what has been deemed as valid by others.
What we have seen since the blunder that released the oil geyser is a rather somber Spiritualistic look at the far-reaching consequences of this event, and even a look back at the choices that have been made as a species that may have led to this event.
For those in the Positive Pole of Verification, this may have provoked a soft look at how one is living, how one's choices add to the collective choices that can build and prompt, even if indirectly, larger events in the personal live, and world events on larger scales, such as the oil geyser. Consequences can become clear to those in Verification, not because there is an obvious, linear track between cause and effect, but that the cause and the effect are obvious, and that is enough. The questions and concerns that have crossed the minds of those interpreting this BP event through the Positive Pole are asking how, if at all, they can break their personal part in that chain of events. The Positive Pole brings a strong, collective sense about this event, with very little sense of blame for its manifestation, but more of a sense of awakening to the critical mass that has led to this kind of event. There may be strong feelings and thoughts about how the situation is being managed in the current state, but that is different from the examination of the patterns that have created the potential for this scenario in the first place. In other words, even the oldest, wisest, and enlightened of souls on the planet participate in daily conveniences that use resources that are drawn from the planet in less-than-savory ways. This may seem daunting to the older soul as a concern, but with some examination, and some embrace of the larger, long-term consequences of smaller, short-term choices and actions, considerations can come into focus that are meaningful. This applies to the personal life and its own "disasters" that can seem overwhelming. As you may see in the review from our last few reports through this channel, this Spiritualism is building upon the examination of Power Mode from the last "season."
Those in the Negative Pole of Belief may manifest as having fallen prey to the belief in easy blame, anger, rejecting his or her part in the collective patterns that lead to consequences such as these. This inclination toward Belief is often couched in tones of indignation, dismay, disheartenment, self-righteousness, and of course, blame. This is not to say that those involved with the BP incident are not to be held accountable, if those who can do so will choose to do so, but to presume that one is not a part of the pattern that has led to this event is to cut out a vital part of the equation that could lead to alternatives and solutions. If you are reading this, you are more than likely a part of the pattern that led to the possibility and eventual manifestation of this event.
Some fragments may stay away from blame, not because they grasp that it is useless, but because the Negative Pole also leans toward more immediate, self-gratifying Beliefs that avoid feeling, thinking, and acting. Such concepts as "positive energy," "healing light," and "sending good thoughts," etc., while having some validity, do not have validity for most, and certainly do not generate valid solutions for the problem that has prompted these kinds of responses. These concepts are often used as a means to opt out of utilizing perception, using any real thought, and act as an avoidance, suppression, or dismissal of feeling. There is a lack of any overview of consequences, emphasizing making oneself feel better as the priority in the guise of helpful intentions that require little beyond a few quick phrases. All "positive thought," "good intention," or "healing," when valid, must not only be a sustained state that is emphasized, but it must include Physical Plane follow-up and participation in some form. We can say that very little, if anything, happens when a simple "positive" glance of thought, feeling, or gesture in the general direction of an illness, catastrophe, or accident is offered up. This kind of problem-solving and life management is a symptom of Belief, the Negative Pole of Spiritualist. All that we have described here in the context of the BP Oil geyser can be applied on personal scales, as well.
As July unfolds, so will the questions and examinations of the larger patterns of the life, and the look at the thoughts, feelings, and actions that contribute to those larger patterns. As that examination and questioning becomes more obvious, we would think that our students might begin to feel uneasy, slightly anxious, and begin a revisiting of some of the original ideas that had been intended for this year to manifest. To the extent that one begins to feel "back on track" before September ends, is the extent to which one would be free of the October through December "season" that examines the collective Chief Negative Features (fears).
In light of what we have shared here, we can say that, in short, it can be helpful to understand:
1) A SINGLE CHOICE/DECISION DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN MY WORLD, EVEN IF THAT DIFFERENCE IS NOT IMMEDIATELY DISCERNIBLE OR TANGIBLE, AND IT CAN MAKE ALL OF THE DIFFERENCE.
2) UNWANTED, UNEXPECTED, ACCIDENTAL, and PAINFUL PERSONAL AND WORLD EVENTS CAN BE MANAGED, REDIRECTED, TRANSFORMED, or SOLVED THROUGH THE REQUIRED MIX OF THINKING, FEELING, and DOING.
Those phrases might be helpful for bridging and building upon the explorations and experiences gathered over the first part of your year.
KEY DATES over JULY:
July 27-30 is a Nexus that is a Convergence of parallels focused on Breakthroughs, Solutions, and implementing long-term plans related to those.
KEY PHRASE over JULY: "EVERYTHING I DO, FEEL, or THINK MAKES A DIFFERENCE." We realize we have extended upon the theme from our last report, but this is intentional and relevant as the transition into the Attitude takes root.

ENERGY REPORT
JUNE 2010
April marked the shift of emphasis from the GOAL of the year to the MODE for the year. We remind you that it is not that the energy represented by the GOAL dissipates, but that it is built upon. In this case, the Mode of Power is building upon the Goal of Dominance.
What we have seen over May among our students has been an interesting display of exploration of Power Mode in that our students have truly exemplified the range between AUTHORITY and OPPRESSION, the positive and negative poles.
For those who have resisted their personal sense of right to express themselves, and to be present in their lives, the emphasis over May would have been on those factors within and without that contribute to the sense of Oppression. This appears to have shown up for many as symbolic on levels that go beyond the obvious. What we have seen is that, rather than seek to transform the more intimate elements of oppression that may contribute to the sense of lacking presence, importance, meaning, effectiveness, expression, etc., this was explored in terms of global events symbolizing the same. Because the vision of the Older Soul can sometimes be far-sighted in emphasis, missing what is "right in front" of them, the symbols that are necessary for transforming personal challenges can show up externally, and in impersonal ways. This can then show up in politics, natural disasters, major headlines, etc.
For instance, the recent blunders of British Petroleum have helped to accommodate many in terms of exploring Power, as this is directly rooted across political, disaster, environmental, climate, major headlines, etc. Some of our students may have become depressed, angry, or deeply affected by this recent event, and for those students we would suggest that your challenges with personal expression are related to how you view yourself in relation to "The World." Your personal sense of expression, authority, meaning, effectiveness, etc, are challenged by the question of how much of a difference one person can make on such large scales. For those students, we would suggest that this is your chance to embrace two Universal Truths that exist, with or without your acceptance, approval, or comprehension:
1) A SINGLE FRAGMENT DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE WORLD, EVEN IF THAT DIFFERENCE IS NOT IMMEDIATELY DISCERNIBLE OR TANGIBLE, AND CAN MAKE ALL OF THE DIFFERENCE.
2) EVERY CHOICE in THOUGHT, FEELING, and/or ACTION MAKES A DIFFERENCE IMMEDIATELY WITHIN THE PERSONAL LIFE, AND THAT CHOICE CAN MAKE ALL OF THE DIFFERENCE, EVEN IF THIS IS NOT IMMEDIATELY DISCERNIBLE or TANGIBLE WITHIN OTHER FRAGMENTS' LIVES.
For other fragments, the month of May revealed the challenges of Oppression more intimately within one's relationship to career, other individuals, to dreams, to animal companions, etc. Those relationships are far less symbolic, and specific to the dynamics of that relationship. In those cases, we would suggest keeping in mind the question of how PRESENT one has been in those relationships, and the degree to which one has been Present is the degree to which one has been Honest. The degree to which one is Honest and Present is the degree to which one is in Authority of one's own Expression. Being Honest and Present does not mean that one has to put oneself in danger, if being more restricted in expression is necessary for "keeping the peace," or not provoking danger, but then for one to make that choice it is an act of Authority, and is not a matter of Oppression; this is simply a smart choice that takes into account the impact of expression in that relationship. When one makes the choice to withhold expression for the sake of navigating real danger, it does not feel in any way Oppressive, but feels intelligent, temporary, and within context. For those relationships where fear is dominant in an unnecessary way, then it is usually a matter of dishonesty and lack of presence, particularly if one feels Oppressed.
The key to moving from Oppression to Authority within your relationship to anyone or anything is to rekindle your power of choice. In terms of your relationship to the world, your power of choice would have to undergo a redefinition that is not dependent on immediate gratification, but upon the honesty and presence of your expression as you deem necessary. In terms of relationship to others, and to more specific situations, your power of choice would have to undergo a redefinition that is not dependent upon convenience, comfort, or the approval of others, but upon your sense of honesty and presence as is necessary for your well-being.
In addition to our review of May, we will also note that a drop in energy for most has occurred, and by this we simply mean that a momentum that was in place from January has now come to a pivotal period of evaluation. One's sense of effectiveness, presence, personal expression, etc. is being explored, and while this is being done in relation to the world and others, it is quite a personal evaluation. This will continue through June.
As June unfolds, we would say that this month is the month TO TALK IT OUT. June is pivotal in terms of one's evaluation of personal Power, expression, and presence, in that it may require you to confide in someone, openly or privately. These talks can be with others who will help you to find your blind spots, or with those with whom you have any challenges related to lack of presence, stifled expression, or dishonesty in your self-representation. These talks can be for the point of finding solutions, or for the point of venting so that a clearer space can be made in the psyche for alternative perspectives and insights. However one might feel he or she is challenged in terms of relationship to the world or to others, June has revealed a pattern that is supportive of TALKING IT OUT, which means speaking or writing words that best convey your more intangible feelings and thoughts.
For those who have moved through May into the more Authoritative end of the poles of POWER, it may have been experienced as revelations within current relationships, or as the emphasis on new relationships that embody a long-term ideal of honesty, presence, and expression. This does not mean those who have moved through these months in the positive pole of the Power Mode energy do not have feelings about the blunder of British Petroleum, or that there are not other areas of the life that may need addressing, but that there is at least one example of how Power Mode can play out when in the Positive Pole of Authority within a relationship.
June appears to bring with it one of the more recent, impressive displays of Power Mode in the media and politics, so we do expect to find many students finding insight and inspiration from that symbolism in terms of how that may work on a more personal scale. We do not know if this display is in terms of Positive or Negative expression, but we suspect that this would be determined on a relative level. This is not a prediction, but merely an observation of momentum.
KEY DATES over JUNE: no specific dates
KEY PHRASE over JUNE: "I CHOOSE TO BE PRESENT and HONEST IN MY EXPRESSION" We suggest this as a key phrase for any moment one feels frustrated by any limitations upon personal expression, in relation to the world, or to another. This would allow for a quick assessment of whether the moment is appropriate for personal expression, or whether it is in fact your authority that is choosing to limit expression. It is also a phrase that would help to remind one that Power is not always an immediately tangible, gratifying energy, but one that plants seeds, weaves within and among other choices, and accumulates into pivotal moments of change.

Energy Report: April 2010
Reading time: 11 - 18 minutes
ENERGY REPORT
April 2010
April marks the shift of emphasis from the GOAL of the year to the MODE for the year. It is not that the energy represented by the GOAL dissipates, but that it is built upon. In this case, the Mode of Power is building upon the Goal of Dominance.
This is a year that many of our students have earmarked for that year where things "have to change." Many patterns have come to an end, come to a transition, come to a need for redirection, and this is part of why this year is showing up as having such highly-tangible overleaves as Dominance and Power.
We've discussed how Dominance shows up for many people in our previous Energy Reports for this year, and it would be helpful to review those as you choose to do so.
With the emphasis now shifting toward the Mode, it means that the season of RELATIONSHIPS is now beginning, and with the Mode being Power, it means that the key to the exploration of your relationships will be in your sense of PRESENCE.
Power Mode is not about Action, but about Expression. Expression is the capacity to translate intangible patterns into something meaningful and recognizable, not only for yourself, but for those with whom you wish to relate. Power Mode, then, is the capacity to communicate in a way that conveys your Presence. It is the shift from invisible to visible. It is the shift from watching to exchanging. In short, it is Confidence.
What this means to us is that April through June may find that our students move into a boldness of expression that will either show up as liberating exhilaration for breaking out of old patterns that compromised the sense of Presence, or it may show up as at least a keen awareness of just how much of your invisibility is from your own lack of Confidence, or both.
As April unfolds, that with which you are most importantly RELATING at this time will most likely become a keen focus. This might be people, career, goals, or anything. The key here is in that it is a prominent relationship of some sort. "Relationship" would be defined by us in this context as that with which you seek mutual exchange; it is the nurturing of reciprocity as a basic foundation.
Our first suggestion, then, would be for our students to take a clear look at what is extremely magnetic right now. For some this is going to show up as enthusiastic focus on the obvious, and everything about it will simply feel "right," like a revelation. For some this is going to show up as a daunting, but strong impulse to focus on what has been either avoided, or missing for a long time in terms of a fulfilling relationship, even if that is with yourself. Again, this impulse to focus may be on creative projects, new people, new layers within current relationships, or anything toward which you seek a mutual exchange.
We would not be surprised to find that many of our students are suddenly afire with eagerness to reach out, to touch, to be touched, to speak up, to be heard, to listen, to take risks, to exchange in ways that clearly display Presence. In the Positive Pole, this Power/Presence would show up as Authority, which simply means Confidence, or that your presence conveys full self-responsibility. In the Negative Pole, this would show up as Oppression, which is when your presence imposes responsibility upon others, or at least conveys that someone else, or something else is responsible for you. This why the Chief Negative Feature of Greed is on the same axis, because Greed compulsively compensates for lack, and when one is lacking Confidence, one will "take it" from those around him or her. When one feels invisible, one might steal focus for himself in unhealthy ways as a means to compensate. When one is in the negative pole, it is most obvious by the way others relate to that person, either in fearful obligation, or in keeping a distance. When one is in the positive pole, it is most obvious by the way others eagerly and freely offer support, kindness, information, compassionate ear, insightful observations, etc. The key being in the difference between fearfully or resentfully provided vs freely, enthusiastically provided.
Activation of Agreements is an all-time high for many of our students, so we would also expect to find a surge of new faces showing up for many of you, and even within the community over the next few months. These Agreements are specific to you and your relationships, but also with us. What some of you may find intriguing about this is that these Agreements may find you suddenly stumbling upon "new" Michael Students who are either quite familiar with, or eagerly resonant with, what you share about the teachings.
Most of the months across 2010 seem to have an initial impact of springing enthusiasm and energy back for the individual, regardless of how the previous month ended. This year seems to have each month starting with a sort of built-in reset button for moods, energy, ideas, etc. Sometimes this mood is lost as soon as the work of the month starts to come in, and then the rest of the month "goes downhill," in that the effort is not as interesting as the initial excitement. In that regard, April is important because it is the pivotal month for you to begin recognizing just who you think is responsible for you and your presence. Someone else? Some higher force? Time? Elements? Resources? or You. If you come to the conclusion that you are responsible for you, then the work that is necessary for fulfilling ideals, visions, creativity, relationships, etc. will come as rather exciting, rather than exhausting. In fact, if you experience exhaustion, and you do not have a physically active life, and despite the fact that you are really not doing much to fulfill your ideals, wishes, and visions, then you may be looking at someone who feels that his or her well-being and fulfillment is dependent on other forces. This is your chance to change that pattern.
KEY DATES over APRIL: 18th - 20th NEXUS - emphasizing realizations of who and what might become a key presence this year. This is mostly on a personal level, a minor Convergence of parallels that appears to either be a pleasant embrace of what you may have suspected, or a surprise realization that what you suspected can now be expected when it may not have seemed possible or potential before.
KEY PHRASE over April: "I MIGHT BE WORTH IT" We suggest this as a key phrase because much of what is avoided, dismissed, or craved is due to the gap between the sense of personal value vs the value of something else. Often Time is more valuable than yourself. Someone else is more valuable than you. Your routines are more important than you. Your comfort and security are more valuable than you. When we say "more valuable than you," we mean that in terms of what you feel has more authority over you than you do. In other words, Time has more authority over you than you do over time. Comfort and Security have more authority over you than your choice to take risks. The obligations of your Routines have more authority over you than you have in altering them. Reminding yourself that you "might be worth it" is a gentle invitation to bring yourself back into a position of self-responsibility so that your choices can be ones that keep you in the picture. Otherwise, you may find that you feel you must have outbursts, demands, loud or silent tantrums, or crafty ways of stealing or taking in order to feel your sense of worth.

Energy Report: March 2010
Reading time: 4 - 6 minutes
ENERGY REPORT
March 2010
March continues the emphasis on the energy of the Goal of Dominance for the year. This describes how many of our students have moved into a sense of direction, awareness of choice, and active participation in building their lives in ways that are felt to be more in alignment with their intentions and desires. The Positive Pole of this energy, Leadership, describes those who are looking at all of the factors that need to come together for fulfillment of a specific intention or direction, while the Negative Pole of this energy, Dictatorship, describes those who are simply demanding or expecting a direction or intention to come together without the work necessary for fulfillment, and with a complete lack of regard for appropriate resources.
Over February, we have seen many of our students fall into patterns described the Negative Pole, and this has left many of our students frustrated with themselves, and on the verge of resigning from any effort that was originally inspired within them at the beginning of the year.
What we would say to this is a suggestion to remember that every quality that has a spectrum, such as a Goal with a Positive and Negative Pole, will have that entire spectrum explored before choosing or settling on a place within that spectrum. You are never condemned to a Negative Pole, nor are you intended to exist solely in the Positive Pole. For those who have experienced a “hiccup” or frustration in their efforts over February, we would simply point out that you may have moved into the Negative Pole as an experiment, and that you now know that it simply does not work to just “want” things to change, or “wish” for things to be better, or for you to simply decide something; you must DO SOMETHING. Not only must you participate in that process, but you must also be your own Leader in that process, meaning that it is also your responsibility to provide the lenience, the enthusiasm, the redirections, the corrections, the anticipations, the structure, the kindness, etc. In terms of this year and this type of energy, you are exploring your position in your life as a LEADER, not as a follower waiting for something to change. It will be of your own strength and creativity that you take the steps in the direction that you would like this year to go.
Over March, we see a pattern of return to Leadership for those who may have slipped in their process of taking charge of their lives. March may come to be a rather full and active month for those returning from Dictatorship, as the ideas, inspiration, enthusiasm, invigoration wells up again and draws in Agreements, Tools, and activates patterns for fulfillment of your intentions and desires.
What we would suggest for those who are regaining their footing, so to speak, is to gently take your time in that regaining of your footing. If you think in terms of needing to make up for lost time, or if you spend your time reprimanding yourself for what you could have, or should have, done differently, you will have lost the point. The point being that this pattern is most likely not new to you. It is probably familiar to you in the sense that you talk yourself out of your progress, find reasons for how it should be different, halt your direction because it is leading into unknown territory, or you may think it is moot to go forward because you should have been where you want to go already. All of these variations are distortions from the Chief Negative Features stepping in to protect you from what you fear. You do not necessarily have to figure out what it is that you fear, but if you choose to do so, there may be great insight for future endeavors. But more importantly, in terms of your moving forward, is merely to choose to move forward; return to your sense of progress and direction. That return is as simple as A CHOICE.
In short, we would describe March as being a month that appears to emphasize a glaringly obvious look at how you tend to make choices, and how you tend to use that power. This awareness may be very helpful for you and your year ahead as April comes around with its emphasis on Power Mode.
For those who have stayed leaning toward Leadership over February, we simply see a pleasant momentum over March.
KEY DATES over MARCH: 14th – 20th NEXUS – emphasizing relationships and Agreements that have lain dormant or dismissed. This is a Convergence of parallels that appears to be bringing people back into many of our students’ lives. We do not see the actual reunions necessarily happening during that time frame, but the patterns activated for those reunions to manifest and/or stabilize over April.
KEY PHRASE over March: “WHY NOT?” We suggest this as a key phrase because it may gently and kindly remind you to take the chances that you may not have taken otherwise in moving forward with your choices. It is also helpful for those who are presented with opportunities that may have otherwise been dismissed. Of course, this can be a helpful phrase at any point within a lifetime, but we choose it for March because it seems to have the most meaning for the most students over the month ahead.
