For this Sunday, September 26th, the focus for our meditation will be on Optimism. In Dion Fortune's work during World War II, described in the book, "The Magical Battle of Britain," she discusses the importance of realizing the impact we have on those around us. At a time when the periodic bombings of London resulted in prolonged moments of terror and chaos she noted how the atmosphere at the headquarters for their spiritual society instead resonated with a sense of peace. She exhorted her members to "act 'as if' what we want to believe is true, and we shall find that we have very likely brought it into manifestation." More importantly, she realized that their group served as a nucleus for the nation in maintaining a spirit of stability and serenity. This notion goes far beyond mere "positive thinking" but is firmly rooted in an awareness of the Divine assistance and protection that is always available to us. As our nation readies itself for another season of elections there are those who would like to broadcast a message of pessimism. There is nothing at all that pessimism contributes in trying to improve a situation. To help restore some balance in the nation we want to use ourselves as beacons of light to manifest light and Optimism. As we move through our world let us remember that in subtle ways we alter those whom we encounter. This week we ask that we focus on broadcasting a sense of Optimism that will ultimately inspire others to seek to effect progress rather than place blame.
Please follow the same practice as before: Get centered in your body, ask to bring in your guides and others who are there to assist us, connect to the circle of others participating in this project, and create the brilliant star-like light over the nation. Extend blue rays from the center of this light to the nation's four borders and then connect to the grid or matrix that extends from the circle.
Ask yourself how does it feel in my body when I am filled with a sense of Optimism about the future and my life? How does it feel when I recognize all the good reasons I have to hold true Optimism for the future? Then send the energy and intention of that feeling to the grid for the nation.
Be sure to disconnect from the circle at the end and express thanks for those who have helped us in this effort.
