Karma, Loved Ones, Do We Have A Life Plan?

The Council

Through Heather Scavetta

February 7, 2012

Welcome. We are The Council. A long and winding road - there are those journeys that seem to never end, who take on twists and turns and these seem like detours from the perceived goal and yet, we have offered you a time of reflection and respite; time of personal healing and understanding, and so even though you may not feel that your journey is continuing, we say that not all is linear and different experiences bring about different knowledge and understanding and so know that all is valuable to this experience whether you feel that it is or not.

Go deeper into the moment and experience it fully to grasp what opportunities have been laid out for you and how you can quickly learn and expand your knowledge in the process before you take up your pack and start on the road again. You can also take this time during each day where you somewhat step off the path to allow yourself time to sit, to go within, to reflect, to contemplate. Allow yourself an opportunity to absorb what has been presented to you. Without assimilation of the knowledge, you may find yourself repeating experiences and so it best to take in all that that is being offered to you so that you can move on into new experiences instead of recycling the old.

There are those who are on a perpetual cycle of being presented with the same data and yet fail to make the connections and so it is presented once again. For some it will take a lifetime to understand the curriculum and for others they will quickly grasp and this may serve them into the future where they are able to help others go through the same process they did. 

Are there any questions this evening?

Do we have a life plan before we are birthed into this world?

Within each of you there lies an energy that longs to be played out, experienced and fulfilled. You may label this as desires, wishes, inclinations, abilities and such. There is a  greater purpose at play where it is true that the individual is just as important as the whole. And so, even though, you play out your desires, wishes, inclinations, and different experiences, so too these are joined together for the collective. And so, we often say, “This is the big picture”; how these energies interplay with each other and also come together in new and different ways. And so to answer your question, yes there is a plan. Yes you are responsible for your part in it, and yes, you have much assistance in this as you may strive to understand something and because you do not yet understand it fully, you can take knowledge and advice from others who have walked that path before and in this way, we offer assistance as there are many experts who understand the many paths that can be taken to understand many different aspects of life.

Is there another question?

When we leave this earthly plane, are we rejoined by our loved ones on the other side?

We understand that we are bound by language here and that there are too few words that are known to explain the truth of reality, but to say that you are rejoined, yes we understand what your intent is, but understand that you are always joined. There is no separation. You may be conscious of this current timeline and are unable to put together the information that has come to you about your concurrent experiences elsewhere and so it feels to you that you have lost loved ones here, and yet they and so do you exist fully in other experiences and timelines. Part of this connection can be experienced in dreams and other times there can be bleed throughs where you can experience each other in this current reality for you. This takes much energy on the part of another to be able to accomplish this and so you may not be able to perceive them as often as you would like to, in the way that you would like it to be. But know that, you are able to be connected with them through your thoughts as there are no barriers to this energy. Let go of your expectations on how you desire it to be and instead allow it to be what it is.

Is there another question?

Should we be losing karma?

Some energies are more apparent, but all energy is sustained and so you may be aware of energy in this timeline and other energies may appear absent - although they are still very much present also.

Different people use the word karma to mean different things and it is apparent to us that we could explain different energetic formulas, but it will fail to satisfy your query, so instead we offer you another opportunity to rephrase your question please.

As I understand it, we are bound by what they call “karma” in our physical reality and it holds us from awakening or going further. Is that so called “energy” that prevents us from awakening...can we get rid of that?

There are those who are bound to the physical earthly experience and they continue to repeat the cycle over and over for they have failed to perceive another reality at play and so, they continue to see the earthly experience as the only one and so they choose to relive it over and over again.

For those who have taken the challenge and opportunity to see beyond the obvious, to expand their awareness to other realms and other energetic beings in existence who can only be perceived when there is an open mind, when you decide to choose a different experience, so one will come to you and so can we say that this may break the karmic cycle. 

There is no right or wrong as each individual plays their part and can only understand when they choose to and when the time is right for them to, and so this process can not be hurried and can only play itself out, but you can assist those who are deep in their karmic physical cycles by presenting to them an opportunity to see life in a broader perspective. And so, this may create an exegetic opening of understanding and if they so choose may experience life differently and so when they choose again, they may choose differently as they now understand more. We cannot bring understanding to those who do not wish to learn, but give us a small opening and we can present all different types of opportunities to understand their existence and life itself. So you may notice people in your circle who do not understand different concepts of life and they may be deep in their karmic cycle, and so you may be their opportunity to create a crack where light can enter and they may start to expand beyond what they currently know to be true for them.

Can you see many more expanding beyond their previous understanding? You will see a collective agreement build and this will in turn provide more opportunities for others to understand. This will bring about much change and revitalization to the planet, but this cannot be rushed as it is an individual choice.

Thank you for listening to us tonight.

Each Moment Is A New Start

The Council

Through Heather Scavetta

January 10, 2012

Welcome. We are The Council. You may think that there is one direction to take and that you are unable to return to where you have been and that you can only stand where you are and gaze ahead to possibilities within your own expression and you may be aware of others who perpetually look behind them and those who remain firm on one spot and others who gaze ahead of them only. It is a valid response to look in all directions, for there are aspects of yourself in each point in your awareness. When you are unsure of which direction to take, it is common to look behind you to remember where you have been and what has served you and what did not. And often times, this is the barometer from which you start.

We say to you that each moment in time is a new start - a fresh beginning and you need not be delayed by your past experiences and your perception of them, instead be wide open to new ways of thinking and see each moment as brand new and let the old perceptions fall away as they do not serve you where you are going.

There are many who remain in the past and their lives are going in the same circle over and over and they are unable to break free of how they see themselves and others and their circumstances. Although there may be many around you who have lost their way, you are to remain steadfast and sure of where you are going. Others may not be able to follow you. Perhaps you are the first to walk this road. Others will follow you once you have completed your task, looking for their way, and hoping that your way is also theirs.

This may help some to a point and then they will find that they must make their own choices as to where their path is going, for each of you is unique and so you may not see each opportunity the same or want the same outcome. Be sure that you have prepared well for what is coming. It may be a surprise for many, but to those who are prepared, they know the way.

There is a knowing that we share and words need not accompany this, as it is felt in the heart and in the soul. Be sure of yourself and help those along the way who are lost or unsure and they will support you in those times where you yourself may doubt, but know what it is the appropriate time to let go and to let yourselves fly as we will be there to uplift and support you and join in with you. And so although you may feel your path is walked alone, know that we are there in each step. You may wish to know us better and you may wish to call on us to assist you. When you feel strong, we are there. When you feel sure, we also too are there. Walk forth with certainty and you will find much joy and peace in the days to come.

Your Treasurers

The Council

Through Heather Scavetta

February 21, 2012

We see that life can carry you in many directions. Some are of your own choosing and then there are items to be crossed off the list. How this is done is an attempt to control your life to make sure that outcomes that you desire occur in the timeframe you have set out. Make room for surprises! Make room for miracles! Allow spontaneity and the “out of the ordinary” to occur. Not all can be planned by you, even though you desire it to be so. For there are other energies at play; forces of good and evil, perceptions, judgements, beliefs. Treasure what you know to be true. What you know for sure. As these are hard won realities and it is an example and indication of battles won, for you hold these ideals and beliefs close to your heart.

Even though, an open mind is also a treasure, you do not need to change your core beliefs in order to have an open mind - both can work together. Don’t discard what you have accomplished so far. Lay aside your doubts and fears and allow what resonates deep within you to be expressed. For these desires are hard won and they are your treasures.

There are those who may have had similar life experiences as you and yet they fail to express their inner most thoughts and desires for they doubt themselves. Do not doubt yourselves. Trust the knowing that you have. You need not reinvent yourselves at each step. Use what you have accumulated so far and use it as a stepping stone for further learning and experiences, you need not start again. This is your life. Treasure it and hold it dear. For you have fought hard for it and deserve to see it run its course - to see it  be fulfilled. All this has been prepared for you. Allow joy to come your way. Allow it to fulfill you and lift you up. Each step you take a flower is laid out for you - honoring you and celebrating each moment until you reach that point where you have a bouquet filled with celebrations. Celebrate your life in each moment. We are The Council.

The Core of Who You Are

The Council

Through Heather Scavetta

March 27, 2012

You have noticed lately the fluctuations in weather patterns. One day it is cool and another warm and this can feel confusing, not knowing which garment to wear and how to prepare for the day. 

The earth is much like you for there are times where you may feel swept away with a strong wind and at times more firmly planted on the ground when the wind is not perceivable. You can always be in the calm of the storm. You can always be in the eye where much is going on around you and this can feel like chaos as objects will move in and out of your perception. One moment you are seeing a truck, and the next a flower, a shovel, a broom and none of it follows a logical pattern. You can learn to be in the centre and let all this go on around you and it will not affect you. You will be able to keep your equilibrium and to understand that these objects may come in to your view and out and yet you are the same.

You need not attach to what you see. This is not your true nature. Too often there are those who look at their surroundings to try to grasp meaning from it, to help them understand their own thought processes and feelings, to look for direction, to look for a reason and make judgements and yet the core of who you are remains unchanged, unaffected by these goings on.

This is not to say that you cannot take enjoyment from it, but try not to place too much meaning on what you observe for in and of itself it has no meaning, but the meaning that you give it, so if you choose to see it as transient, as temporary, then it will prove ineffective; it will not cause you distress or worry or anxiety.

It is true that the moment is all you have. Enjoy these moments for indeed these exact circumstances will not appear again. Take from it its true meaning. Remain centered and unaffected by what goes on around you and you will be able to see a clearer perspective of what is closest to your heart and what holds meaning.  

Each of you hold within you the same power. Being able to know yourselves without external validation, without need, without expectation. Be comfortable that you possess all that is necessary for your happiness, for your fulfillment, for your purpose. Lessen the distractions around you. Provide opportunities to dwell in those moments of solitude to be close to yourself and to be honest of what is most important to you and what brings meaning and purpose to your life. Know that there is no one who can do this for you. There is no one who can tell you where you are going and what is required, but instead trust in yourself.

Spring, Judgement and Time

The Council

Through Heather Scavetta

March 19, 2012

Seasons come and go. It is true that you are in a time of renewal. A time to spring forth. There is much that has gone on in preparation for this time. Perhaps many seasons have passed, many times of growth and reabsorption and renewal. And so, do not think that all is accomplished in a calendar year, but perhaps lifetimes have been in progress. 

There has been times of loss and joy, and times where the foundation has been laid and so you cannot know for sure why it is you have come, what it is need to know, what information you need to gather and so do not try and  figure it all out for you cannot know where you have come and where you are going and where you have been and where you have gone. Rejoice in the moment at hand for each moment contains its own seed and it can be planted and nurtured for all the potential it contains or it can be discarded and left at the side of the road where it will not take root or ever bloom.

You must consider the soil you are planting your seed in and how much attention you are giving it. For if you want a healthy plant then care must be taken. So to, it needs sunshine to flourish and so even though you may enjoy activities that seem unproductive, there is a greater plan and purpose at work. It is best to follow your inclinations and trust yourself, but know yourself too and be aware of those times where you push away opportunities and doubt yourself.

Not all will give you a yes and perhaps this is not what you need and so, do not try to evaluate each opportunity or event. It is best to leave judgement aside.

Time moves slowly. Time is for you to use at your leisure. Do not feel rushed or pressed upon as this will inhibit your growth. Pick up where you left off and proceed - perhaps the continuing of the journey is as important as its conclusion. So, do not judge your progress. There are those who travel with you - fellow comrades and soldiers - know that this journey is not taken alone . There is much support for you, but there will come a time to stand alone to hear words of praise and love.

Life Is Not Static

The Council

Through Heather Scavetta

For the Channelling Circle

February 1, 2012

Welcome. We are The Council. We want you to know life is not static. That waves of energy move throughout your physical being as well as your consciousness and that there is no separation from the two. You must have a consciousness to be in physical form and all physical form is a manifestation of consciousness. And so, do not feel that you are alone here for all that you see is derived from the same process; energy that moves in waves and indeed light particles that join together with one another to form what is seen and unseen.

There is no rigidity in life, but movement and thoughts themselves are movement and energy and waves moving, sometimes lengthening out and at other times tightening together, quickening and slowing down. You feel these energies and waves and movement when you are near us and sometimes we understand that the energies that come forward are overwhelming for some and for others feel more seamless. This is not indicative of what is to come for you and so do not place your judgement of how this energy plays out to you. Together you form an energy that is unique and so you will find that in the weeks to come that the energy will shift and modify itself depending on who is present. 

For some of you, you are the anchor and may feel more rooted to the ground while in channel for you are the one who is holding the energy. You are indeed assisting those around you to assimilate to the energy. That is why it can be an optimal experience to be with one another as you are achieving new heights by combining the energies present. Also, you are learning from one another and sharing words of acceptance and experience. 

Enjoy this experience for you are participating in an experiment and you will take from it what you are ready to take. Hear the words that have been spoken here tonight for they are not a mistake. Take our words of encouragement for they are given to those who can hear. Not all will feel our hands upon your hearts, but know that we support you and are here for you so know that there is a reason for our presence and for all of you here tonight. Thank you and rejoice for each of you has expanded in new ways and this will serve you.

You Are Unique

The Council

Through Heather Scavetta

For the Wednesday night class

Last class of the winter session

March 28, 2012

YOU ARE UNIQUE

Welcome. We are The Council.

Each of you has a unique aspect to yourself. This can be seen in a fingerprint - how no two are alike. So to this can be extended to you and how you love, think, feel and be.

We are here to love and support you. Our hearts are full with joy and admiration. Proud we are of you all. We hope that you extend this to yourselves as we know there are some of you who are very hard on yourselves. You fail to see the big picture and focus instead on minute details which you place much more importance on than is deemed necessary.

We understand that we have a unique perspective and are able to see your growth and how you affect one another and you may not be able to see the ripple affect that your energy causes. You are all born of the light and carry within you the ability to spread love and nurture the planet as well as yourself and one another and to all that inhabit the earth.

Do not take lightly these gestures of caring as they are fundamental to life and without them you would see very quickly parts of your reality collapsing and turning to dust. It is your emotions and ability to connect with one another that sustains the fabric of existence.

It is true that there are those life experiences where you may feel alone and yet each life experience bears its own merits, it does not operate alone. What you accomplish here is felt throughout each time zone and so you affect not only those around you, but yourself.

Are there any questions?

I am at a crossroads and don’t know which way to turn. Can you help me make decisions on which way to go in my development?

There is a logical sequence and you cannot skip steps. It is best to focus on the next building block and do not jump too far ahead. This may cause you frustration and you will find you will be pushed back to the proper level. Sometimes, learning will come quickly and you will move along and accomplish many steps at once and so this is not to say you are developing slowly, we just say there is a logical sequence. Make sure you have learned the foundation well and if this is so, you will find that each modality will come with a better understanding and you will move through the process quicker. If you are able to use cards effectively and find this process easy, than this will be a good indication to move to another area. It is best to master one discipline before you move on. This information is for you and may not be applicable to others here for each path is unique and special. Knowing yourself you have implemented these steps to bring about the utmost joy and understanding so trust what you have laid before you.

Thank you for your question. Is there another question?

Do have a message for me?

Your load is light and so you are able to keep your spirits high and encourage those around you to be lifted up and so even though you may not have many trials or limitations, know that your affect on those around you are appropriate to assist those with their journey if everyone was sad and down then there would be little understanding as they need one like you around them to encourage them and to lift up their spirits. Most of you fail to recognize these attributes of yourselves and all too often can become too interested in the self instead of understanding that their are many reasons why you have taken this journey.

If there another question?

Are there messages for me?

You walk alone and even though you are a part of a family this does not mean that you carry within you those attributes of those that raised you and bore you. You are unique and stand as an individual. Do not think that because another was inflicted with health concerns that they will be yours. We understand there is much information about this, but don’t always believe what you read. Understand you have your own journey to take and your mind is strong. Be determined and find that strength within to move forward with confidence and surety and leave presumptions and associations behind you.

Is there another question?

Do you have a message for me?

Remember who you are. Surround yourself with those who support you and see you as you truly are. Do not let others pull you back or prevent you from moving forward. Stay true to yourself.

The Truth Within

The Council

Through Heather Scavetta

April 4, 2012 for the Wednesday night class.

Welcome. We are The Council.

We have come tonight to show you what it is to be human and a part of this earthly realm. It is true that your life is unique and yet there is a blending of different energies while you are here that forms a unique environment to each person. This includes the animals in your life as well as friends and family. Those outside of that realm, play a different role in how they affect you.

Often times they represent the group as a whole (aka collective consciousness) and may reflect group energies. This may include: anger, judgement, impatience, apathy and you may take from those experiences away with you feelings of being either connected or detached from the group.

In your life there will be times where you seek out others and want to feel that connectedness and there are other times where you want to withdrawal - all are appropriate. You must find within yourself that place where you can go to where you can find the truth. So often there are those who are experts at covering up the truth about themselves and fail to see what it is they put in their path to distract them and that creates barriers to their happiness and progression and so we say to you, can you find that place where you can go to find the truth about yourself? In that place you will also find us, for we are there. We surround you always for we are linked to one another and we understand about your fears and what motivates you to try a little harder.

It is also our job or role that we take, to offer to you feelings of love, to remind you that there is more than earthly goals and aspirations. And so we strive to give you a balanced perspective for we understand that you are cloaked in a veil of forgetfulness and are unaware of where you come from and who you are.

Allow us to come close and touch your heart. You are safe with us. 

As you come together and in the times to follow, remember that we are here and you may call on us for assistance. We know you are on a (? not clear) journey and so there may be times where you are unable to ask for assistance as there are deep-rooted beliefs within you. But if you could open up that part of you to possibilities and to the unknown then you allow us to reach through and assist you in your knowledge and be a part of those experiences.

Be kind to one another, support one another.

(Words in brackets are mine and are for clarity.)

Chakras

Chakras are energy centres of the body and we have hundreds of them.

The main chakras run up and down the spine and if all are wide open can

facilitate the kundalini experience.

Our chakras are open because we are alive.

You cannot completely close them.

You can open them further through relaxation and intention.

We can hold on to negative energy in the associating chakra

ie. grief in the heart centre

We can work on how we hold on to energy by recognizing our past traumas,

fears , etc.

Sometimes illness results from blocked energy which show up in the corresponding energy centres.

Through meditation we can travel to each of the chakras and ask for information about them.

Are we holding on to stuff? and a favourite of mine is to ask "What does this area of the body want

to tell me?". Be open to amazing information that you wouldn't expect to get. I feel the body is a communication

tool to ourselves and if we ask and listen we can know more about ourselves and what we can do to help ourselves and heal.

We can consciously "close down" our chakras by intention and pulling our energy towards us.

We can do this to "protect" our energy when we are in the company of negative energy, etc.

We can also do this by refocusing our perspective from the spirit world to the physical world where we use these energy centres less.

On the eve of my father-in-law's transition to spirit

April 3, 2012

Channelled by Heather Scavetta

On the eve of my father-in-law’s transition to spirit

Welcome, We are The Council. According to the laws there are many approaches to situations. You will not find two approaches that are the same. For each of you have your own set of desires. As you approach a situation you bring forth what it is you wish to see and in so doing, you can cloud or colour the situation as you desire. And so, each of you brings your own set of crayons and in the moment are able to mold and suit what you see, feel and hear to what you are able to absorb and understand.

And so, in witnessing an event, you will notice that there are those who are able to take in much more meaning as well as those who take very little meaning away. This is not to say that one is better than another for each of you are on your own path of discovery.

Understand, that there are extenuating circumstances that you cannot see for it is true that you are here in disguise and are unable to see fully who you are. You have chosen this for it is in your best interest to lay aside misconceptions so that you may approach situations in a way that is new to you for you lack the ability to see your past experiences with clarity.

Forget what you have known and allow fresh ideas to surface and expand your perceptions beyond the ordinary. Be sure that you have come fully equipped to do this. (Tony, my husband enters the room) We know there are those here who have many questions and are eager to hear from us.

In those times where circumstances are at the same time grander and intimate, (as in death) we all strive to absorb what it is we need to understand in that moment. If we choose to let all distractions fall away and focus on the heart of the matter, we can follow a thread of energy that will lead us to a positive revelation and one where we can absorb the meaning for us. We say, Us, as we too are learning, for we can see the choices made, the promises and the heart-felt gestures and we learn from you also. Each soul is at its own trajectory and there will be times (like after death) where they may venture off on a far away journey where they are isolated and away from friends where they can understand more deeply what has occurred.

Just as here (on the earth), you too may find there are times, in your life, where you need to withdraw to minimize the distractions so that you are able to go deeper within yourself so that you can understand what has happened, and what is happening and what may happen. So too those souls who have travelled to the other side, may do the same. They may go into a period of respite where they gather their experiences and reflect on what has occurred, so that they may grasp the true meaning of their life. This can only be done through the soul for another cannot tell another what it is they have learnt; it must come from within - a deep understanding of the processes and so each soul has its own timeline and one cannot hurry the process. 

...The energy changes and I am flooded with pink light and an incredible warmth comes over me. I am overwhelmed and have a deep pressure on my heart and my voice slows as the energy is so thick that each word comes out by itself...

We understand this and know that each soul needs to be respectful of their own way and know that we are there to record what has occurred and we shall lay our hand upon them with love so that they may feel our love for them in its entirety for they may be unable to give this to themselves.

We know it can be difficult in these moments to find compassion for oneself and so we surround them and allow them to feel what it is like to receive love in its entirety where there is compassion and unboundless eternity of Light. 

Know too that we shall do the same for you when it is time for you to shed this earthly form, for we strive to accept and allow each soul its moment in rapture and to allow the floodgates to open where all memory is restored and you will see where you have been and where you are.

**words in brackets are mine and are added for extra clarity

Ask

Your journey starts when you can admit you need help.  There is no where you can look on the earth for answers as to why your loved one has left this world before you or why you are going through hard times. The truth lies beyond earthly perceptions.  If you ask, the door will be opened to you.  From beyond lies all the answers to all the questions about life and death and how to connect the two.  All knowledge is accessible to you if you ask for guidance and help.  This is a difficult concept as the world teaches you that you are weak to ask for help.  The spirit world recognizes your strength in the ability of you knowing you need help.  Sincerely, ask from the heart and all the angels in heaven and earth will rush to your side.  Expand your awareness that this guidance may come in different forms.  It may be a book that catches your eye, or a stranger saying something to you, or a TV show you are watching.  Keep your mind open to any possibility because the spirit world uses all these modalities and more.
