As Above, So Below

I had a dream in which I saw a pair of legs and feet upside down, as if someone was doing a handstand in front of a stone wall, with a beautiful full tree not too far in the distance. I’ve tried to unpack this for a few years to discover it’s meaning and the best I can get from it is As Above, So Below.  Perhaps the wall was something blocking the connection, but the wall was low enough that anyone could get over it. That may be a far-reaching explanation but for me, today, it fits. 

The actual origin of the statement As Above, So Below, has been credited to the Emerald Tablet of Hermes Trismegistus. It was often used in the teachings from Edgar Cayce, whose work has been well documented and studied. It’s a primary concept of the Tree of Life in the Kabbalistic teachings. There’s much more to reference about the statement, and much philosophy around it, but I’m going with what I know and have experienced.

I watched Rich Martini’s Hacking the Afterlife and Backstage Pass to the Afterlife. He was told (I’m paraphrasing) by someone on the other side that all you have to do is think something that you desire, and you create it instantaneously. It’s a mathematical equation, they said, but you don’t have to understand it to do it. The essence of everything over there is love, of the unconditional kind. God, or whatever you want to call All That Is, The Great Architect, Source, Yahweh, whatever, is pure unconditional love. We are God’s children, spiritual beings having a physical experience in the earth plane. Made in God’s image, which I believe to be spirit, or higher consciousness. In that regard, we can do the same things here that we could do back home, in heaven, with a slight caveat; we have time and space to contend with, and we don’t remember who we are. Sounds like a fun game, right?  It’s turned out to be quite complicated for us.

In our purest form, we would have a really good time here were it not for the negativity. I imagine how civilizations were in the very beginning. When my husband, David, was channeling, Holy Spirit told us that about six and a half billion years ago, the children just appeared. We were all human, fully formed and enlightened, always connected to God. We were so closely connected that there was no awareness of God as separate from us, we were fully tuned in with no interference. They described life at that time to us, and it was wonderful! After a couple billion years, negativity took hold, and we were off to the races.  I believe after a few self-inflicted cataclysms we got so wrapped up in the negative energy that we really got ourselves into trouble. God doesn’t cause tragedy; we do that on our own. Things may feel really messed up for some during our present time, far from being heaven-like. In that mess is creation. We are going through the dark tunnel of our own manifestation to get back to the light of higher conscious awareness and creation. We have in many regards become slaves to our own creation, unaware that help is all around us to snap out of it. Sometimes things have to get really ugly before someone says “enough!”.

If we are creating things in heaven, we can create the same way here, by thought. This has been proven in many genres of study, which I won’t go into here other than mentioning a few names; Dr. Joe Dispenza, Dr. Bruce Lipton, Edgar Cayce, Jon Gabriel, Napoleon Hill, Wayne Dyer, Louise Hay, Abraham Hicks, and many others. This has also been experienced by many NDE’ers, not to mention the field of quantum physics/mechanics. With all the evidence out there, circumstantial or scientific, we can create from thought alone. I want to add, from thought and love alone.

If we can develop coherence between the heart and mind through deliberate thinking and feeling, we’ve got it nailed. Our feelings are our guidance and can tell us if we’re on the right track or not, kind of like the game of Hot and Cold. If we feel negativity or resistance (cold) to something we are thinking about, we might want to refocus our attention onto the things that make us feel better (warmer). In other words, the negative feelings tell us we’re mucking things up and when we feel good, happy, safe, satisfied, we are heading in the right direction.  Seems simple enough, but people tend to not be consciously aware of what they’re thinking about, or if they might be overthinking. We tend to get steeped in the negative energy and then spend our time searching for something to take our minds off our troubles, rather than to simply acknowledge them and let them go. (If you really struggle with this, the Twelve Step program can be a life-changer!)

Once we get a handle on moving away from negativity, we can start speeding along toward this creation thing, like in Heaven.  Using a daily meditation practice will help in turning negative thought patterns to more positive and creative streams of thought. It takes time and practice, and a lot of self-awareness, but we can all get there. While we’re doing that, we’re raising the vibration of the earth and creating, individually, a much more heaven-like experience for ourselves here. It’s already happening for many. It doesn’t take a majority for the planetary shift to occur. It only takes about one percent, and there are many people on the job around the globe. It’s going to get easier for all of us if we just pay attention.

Imagine a world where things come easily to us, we’re not working nearly as hard to get thing things we desire, everyone is doing what they love, creating from the heart, keeping the world clean and beautiful because they care for the earth and each other, and amazing new technologies and advances in the evolution of mankind are happening all around us. Every day is a magnificent miracle of creation, and we wake up eager each day for a new discovery, or an encounter with a higher vibrational being, or simply admiring a beautiful tree or person or animal. Every day wonderful. Like a flower growing through a crack in the sidewalk. It seemed impossible, and yet there it is.  Many are waking up to the possibilities and creating new perspectives and higher vibrations as they’re sharing the message and their experiences with others. They are creating and sharing from love. We can all do this.  As above, so below.
