Inner strength is not judged by outward appearances. The weakest person may have the greatest inner strength of all. They will battle all odds to overcome any adversary. They do not use physical strength as in the strength of a weight lifter, or a person of outer strength, but they show an inner strength, unsurpassed by any that show only brawn.

We have the power to create anything we desire. Even in our weakest moments, we can find this strength within. I have often felt incapable of finding any strength to overcome the all-powerful feeling of defeat, and entrapment. But I was told that we have the strength within us to overcome anything. Even in our weakest moments, we have more strength than we can possibly imagine. We have great power within our inner souls, as we are one with the Divine Source itself.

So often we do not acknowledge this, as we are afraid of what others will think if we show our inner strength. We are afraid they will think we are too bold, or too outspoken, or too proud. But this hidden power is within each of us. When Jesus spoke to the wind and the waves, he was showing us that when we command the Higher Powers within us, we too, can speak to the elements of nature and command them in our power.

I often do not feel like I am powerful. I often feel like I have no control of a certain situation. I feel helpless. Yet I have been told:

It is I Astara. We are One. Your strength within comes from being who you really are, not by listening to others. Be charitable to others and listen quietly to their advice, but then go within to your own feelings and abide by what you feel. Trust in your own inner knowledge.

Many before you have fallen through trying to please another and not listening to their inner voice. Hold to your own, and you will never be disappointed. You have far more strength within than you realise. I leave you now. Another comes to talk with you.

It is I, Michael. You know me as Archangel. My full essence could never be fully experienced through any human vehicle, but you are experiencing a part of my essence. You are one of my own. You have yet to recognise this and remember. We have been connected for aeons and I will never desert you.

There is much power within you, but you have hidden this power for fear of it being known to others. You have been afraid of your power, because you have mis-used it in times past. Now is the time for this power and your brightness, to shine for all to see. The world has a great need of it. Many of my legions are now upon the earth plane, and many are being awakened now. This reminder is for all who feel the tug of compassion in their heart. Your time is NOW.

Do not fear for your future. You write your own future. You write it with fear or with love. Let not others persuade you away from your true lesson the calling which you feel in your hearts. The purpose you came here to do is now being called upon. Rise up and claim your power your birthright your light. You are my children. You are stars of the Creator. And your time for revealing this has now come.

Stand in your power. Be who you ARE. I bless you and give you courage in this time of need.

I am Archangel Michael.

So be it.

It appears we are being told that it is now our time to stand up and be counted. Our time for holding back has passed. It is now time to release all past that does not serve us, and move forward.

The world is waiting for us. It is waiting for us to emerge into our true selves, and be who we were always meant to be. It is time now for us to stand in our power and face the world the way we were always meant to face it.

We feel powerless so often, when we become sick. Yet we do not realise at the time that we do have the power to overcome sickness of any kind. We often choose a certain condition to learn a particular lesson.

We must realise also that everything is alive. Even inanimate objects, from computers to cars, have living elementals within them. We have the power to create anything we desire. We can ask the little beings in our car to look after it, and they will. We can send love to our computers and they will respond by not crashing on us. We can focus thoughts of love on anything around us, and it will respond in kind.

We are also told that Earth is a living body, alive like us, and deep within Earth’s core is the Flower of Life, the source of the Spirit that binds all in its form. It is the same Spirit that holds the heart flame within us that gives life to Earth.

We have the power to prevent our own death, if we but knew the wisdom of the gods. We could become deathless, living from age to age as a Light among men, just as those in Lumeria and Atlantis have done before us. We have the power to free our soul from bondage of darkness and let it take wing in its flight to the stars.

We are also told by Thoth, “Here ye and listen, O my children. Magic is knowledge and only is Law. Be not afraid of the power within thee for it follows Law as the stars in the sky.

Even death cannot harm us. It is but the passing through into another dimension, and back again to experience life, until we eventually attain the higher dimensions of such great light that we no longer need to incarnate again in physical form. We can take with us whatever we desire for our own potential and our own growth. We do choose however what we take with us in each lifetime, and that which is intended for our highest purpose.

We have the power to create our own future. We need not be afraid of what our future will hold. We write our future each moment of our life. We must not let fear overtake us and bring us down.

I received the following:

It is I Astara. We are One.

I come to remind you to lift your energies. Do not let feelings of despair, fear or gloom overtake you. These vibrations do not lift the earth. They hold her down like a chain net, which cannot be broken. Lighten your thoughts - do not let fear enter your mind and heart.

By allowing all, you are accepting all into your heart, and not restricting your movements by fear-driven feelings and thoughts. These feelings place a lock, or blockage, on your emotions, which stop the Love from flowing through your veins.

When you relax you will be surprised at the difference it makes to your vibration. You actually slow right down and become one with the things around you. As you do this, if you could see into the etheric world, you would see streams of coloured lights spinning off you and onto every item that catches your vision. It is a most beautiful sight from where we sit in the spiritual realm. The colours that radiate from you are most magnificant.

As you travel through your day, be in tune with the inner feelings you have about things that come into your day. As you experience each feeling, let it pass through you, and observe how you feel. Do not try to take this feeling to your heart. Rather let it pass through you and watch it travel on its way. You are beyond these feelings and far more than you could possibly realise.

If you look around you at the presence of others, you will see their angelic presences and know that they reflect your angelic presence also. Everything you see and feel has a connection to you in some way. By living and allowing all to pass without judgement of it, you are becoming a lighter person, and raising your consciousness towards a heightened vibration. As you raise your vibrations, you also lift the vibrations of the planet you walk upon, and each time you do this, you are assisting in her birth towards her new consciousness.

Remember these words as you carry on into your day. They are for all people. I bid you adieu. I AM Astara.

If we can use our problems and illnesses as opportunities to think about how to change our lives, we have power. Taking responsibility for ourselves is one of the greatest powers we have. Many people come through catastrophic illness saying it was the most wonderful thing that ever happened to them because it gave them a chance to go about their lives differently. If, on the other hand, we feel we are victims, we will find it hard to find our power within.

So often we feel intimidated by others, or we feel that we just can’t do what we know we ought to do. It is not an easy thing to face the strength within us and move forward. But in order to break our pattern of powerlessness, we must accept the responsibility of our own power.

Nelson Mandala, the African leader, wrote in his inaugural speech in 1994 : “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not in some of us, it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically literates others.

We serve nothing in the plan of ascension and if we hide who we are. We have lived so long as victims and as underlings that we are now afraid to own who we are. We have power within us beyond our wildest dreams. Our power is to be used for the good of all. Often in the past, in previous lifetimes we have had this power and mis-used it, and it has caused disastrous consequences to all concerned. We may have been given much authority, and abused it, and this is the reason why we now hide the power that is within us because we are afraid of repeating a past mistake. Our souls know the reason we have hidden it for so long. But we have learnt from our past, and it is now the time to allow it to come into its own.

Those who use power for selfish purposes will not survive in the New World. Those who use sexual prowess, for example, to keep another in abeyance or servitude will no longer be able to use this as a means of power over others. Each person, knowing who he or she is, will be master of himself, and there will be no more victim-hood among mankind. We will not be allowed to claim our power upon this planet any longer if we are intending to use it for ill purposes. The God-Creator/Source/All-that-Is has seen it all happen before. He/She/It will not allow another catastrophe to occur upon this planet because of power abuses.

Mankind will no longer be allowed to use these powers unless they are for the highest good of all. It is time to acknowledge our own powerful energies, and to use them for the good of the whole. Our power can be used in the most positive ways to help others to see themselves for who they really are, to help others fight their depression, their lack of self-worth, their illnesses and their fears. So many souls are in need of hearing this at this time.

The Power of Emotions

We find our emotions rocketing to and fro so often these days. We are always fighting them, trying to stay centred. These emotions, and the strength of them, can be frightening.

I have been finding lately that I have anger coming to the surface. It has been rising to the surface so frequently of late. Simple things seem to cause me to become irrationally angry. My husband braking his car when I was reversing behind him, and not giving me warning, caused me to go into work fuming one morning. Yet there is no logical reason why this should be so. The anger just wells up so unexpectedly, without rational cause. By releasing this anger, it has evaporated and is no longer within me. If we hold the anger in, it is more likely to cause us harm further down the track. It is anger, frustration, resentment, etc. that are the causes of most of the diseases of mankind that develop in old age.

The strength within us may be staying hidden because we don’t want to acknowledge it for fear of its power. We know, deep down at a soul level, that we have allowed our power to cause harm upon the planet before. We know its potential, and we are afraid to unleash it.

If we allow it to be released by sending it love, accepting it, and acknowledging it, telling ourselves that it is okay to be angry, that it is okay to be emotional as long as it doesn’t hurt another, then it will cease to be a problem for us. We can unleash our anger by hitting a pillow, or even walking the dog. Any feelings that we lock up inside us will inevitably come to light again as a physical disease at some stage further down the track. But if we allow it release, then the earth will transmute our anger and our other emotions, and we will find them being replaced by feelings of pure love.

The greatest power of all is that of self-love. This love will give us everything that we have ever needed. The power is within us.

The earth is now raising it’s own vibrations, and unless we do the same, along with the planet, we will no longer incarnate upon the earth when our time is over. There have been other planets prepared for those who still wish to focus in third dimensional energies. Our planet will no longer be in a vibration to sustain the lower energies and must move on in its own evolution.

As the time of the earth’s final transition, it will just seem to those who are still in the old energy that others have just disappeared. Those who will be living on a higher level of vibration will no longer be visible to those in the lower dimensions. Those newly living in the higher dimensions will be able to see and communicate with those on the higher spiritual levels of life, and those in the spirit world who have finished their life on earth and moved on. They will also be able to lower their vibrations at any time to help those who are still struggling. There will be no longer any separation, as all things will be as one.

Those who have lost a loved one through so-called death will no longer be separated from them. And as the dimensions thin, there will be more and more contact with those in the spirit world. We will be able to feel them close to us at all times if we wish it. Separation will be a thing of the past.
