Archangel Metatron: Greetings little one. As we connect our energies once more, we notice your energies are much softer today and less stressed; and this is good. You’re in a reflective mood and reflection is good for the soul; for it allows you to look inside yourself and connect with your inner divinity. It is sad that so many people do not make time to commune with themselves, for they would find life so much more easier.

Jill: Why would they find it easier? Sometimes it can be more confusing as we go around in circles questioning and searching for answers that don’t always seem to come to the forefront of you mind.

Archangel Metatron: By reflecting, you connect with your heart; and your heart will never lie to you. Your heart tells you when something isn’t right. It is the mind that, at times, chooses to ignore the direction of the soul. This happens when we allow our ego to take over from our inner guidance.

Jill: Although at times I know my heart tells me something, it doesn’t always make it easy, especially if it may mean upsetting or conflicting with someone else.

Archangel Metatron: By being honest with yourself and choosing a direction others may disagree with, is not always easy, but through the experience you grow and learn to stand upon your own two feet. It is this that makes you connect with your inner power and become strong.

Many people will force their opinions upon someone else without any regard for whether or not it is in that person’s best interests. Many people will use anger or guilt to try and dissuade someone from following a particular path, but one must realise that the real reason others try to persuade you to not follow a particular path, is usually through fear. They fear that it will affect their relationship with you. It could be they fear you will change; that you may no longer need them; or you may view them differently. The one constant in life is that you will only find happiness when you follow your heart and listen to your inner voice.

Jill: Sometimes when I watch the world, I feel powerless to change the things that I see; then life seems very sad, and perhaps at times, a very unpleasant experience that I think, “Who in the world would really want to experience this?”

Archangel Metatron: You can allow yourself the luxury of this negative thought, but let us look a little more closer, for you represent so many others who often feel like you do. You only have to look at your world to see the unrest and unhappiness that is there. On the other hand, there is also much beauty and wonderful experiences too. Remember child; duality in everything.

Your world is a reflection of the collective consciousness. The decay you see; the fighting, is not the work of evil, but the situation has come about because collectively no one is bothered enough to say, “STOP! This is not acceptable”.

Everyone is doing their best, according to their own level of consciousness. It is neither right nor wrong. It just is. You were extremely upset by the plight of the animals that if not taken care of, will become extinct.

(Glenn: Jill was disturbed this morning watching a news programme about the number of species of animals on our plant that are nearing extinction.)

How did we know? We feel your pain.We hear your heart. But unless one thought becomes two thoughts, becomes three thoughts; nothing will be done; and life will cease to exist for those wonderful animals.

You may feel upset. But what have you done, or are you going to do; that will make a difference. Feeling sorry and upset for these animals will not bring about change. Only when you think seriously about the effect you are having on your planet and change your ways, will you give these creatures a chance of survival. The effects of your living choices doesn’t only affect the planet earth, the animals and the humans on the planet, it also affects the universes.

(Glenn: This is not a spelling error. Metatron has already explained that we are in one of 12 universes in the shape of a dodecahedron; and that there are 12 dodecahedron universes.)

So many people around the world are starving and dying from the lack of clean water, food, medicine and lack of hygiene; and yet you all choose to remain blind to their plight. Your collective consciousness is allowing this to unfold and continue.

Jill: This all costs money; and money is the one thing a lot of people don’t have. Also; if you do give money, you can’t always be sure it gets there, due to the amount of corrupt politicians and people in those countries that are affected.

Archangel Metatron: Who says you have to give money? If you all collectively choose to stop these atrocities happening, they would stop. You can choose not to keep tearing trees down. You can choose to stop allowing chemicals to be thrust upon the earth and the foods you eat. You can choose to be more economical with your fuel and water. Very few will do something about it, but when the world is near extinction, then those same people who didn’t do anything about the problems you faced, will call out to us; to God; to come and help them. When you all learn respect for life and each other; only then will the world you live in change.

Jill: This is really depressing.

Archangel Metatron: No, it just ‘is’ what it ‘is’; life on planet earth. It doesn’t have to be depressing. You can ensure that you choose to only purchase organic foods. You can choose to be more economical with your water and fuel. You can stop using plastic carrier bags and replace them with shopping bags. You can take an active part in recycling your waste. You can choose to help a beggar in the street by offering to buy them a sandwich or piece of fruit. By doing your part, you are making a difference. Teaching this to others, particularly children; is vital, if you want you and your children to survive.

Raising people’s consciousness is necessary if you are to continue. We have spoken on this, many times. We cannot express enough how important the mind (consciousness) is, when it comes to affecting your physical body and world you live in.

The vast majority of your illness’s are created by the mind. Your anxiety and stress is brought about because your thought process is one whereby you have no trust in the process of life. You do not allow life to flow around you. You’re well aware that where ever there is an emotional block, it manifests also as a physical block.

Let us look at your family. Arthritis is brought about through a lack of feeling unloved. The person who has arthritis tends to harbour resentment and be critical of others. These feelings of wanting to attack others brings about duality, therefore the immune system begins to attack itself, for the mind is saying to the body, I don’t love or like me.

Multiple Sclerosis is caused through a person projecting hardness. This causes inflexibility. People who appear hard-hearted, are acting through a façade to ensure their fears are not shown to the world. They block emotionally any feeling they may have that may cause heartache. This tells the body’s nervous system to stop sending signals between the brain and the body, so that they won’t experience pain. This then affects the person’s ability to use their limbs.

Jill: What about cancer?

Archangel Metatron: Cancer is brought about in two different ways. Some cancers are caused by the chemicals you allow into the body by way of food, drink or inhalation. Cancer can also be brought about because of deep emotions that eat away at you through worry, resentment, guilt or fear.

Joint problems are brought about through not being able to change direction in life; being inflexible. Shoulder problems represent the inability to shoulder responsibility for your own experiences. Tonsillitis is brought through choking back on your own words, not being able to express the self.

You will recognise these traits, I’m sure, if you look at those people in your family who have these medical conditions.

Jill: Well you’ve pointed out the cause but what about the cure.

Archangel Metatron: Aaaahhhh. That is a good question. Learning to love the self is the main prevention; along with being able to relinquish resentment and hurt. Learning the art of communication and being able to express ones self is also paramount. By going within (reflection, meditation), you take time to acknowledge your emotions. Teach your children to listen to their emotions and express them. Don’t tell a child to stop crying, ask a child what is it they’re feeling that is making them cry. Allow each other to say I feel… angry, jealous, hurt, frightened, happy, sad. Learn not to censor your feelings. When you learn to release your emotions in a calm and loving manner, most illnesses will disappear, if combined with a healthy nutritional diet for the body.

I will leave you for now. Perhaps a bit of healing is in order for Glenn. We will address his issues shortly. He would also find life more beneficial if he resumed his meditations, until then….

Blessed be, Metatron

Glenn: I recently wrote in 'Glenn's diary', at a low ebb, that I was lost and losing faith because of all the negativity that we are having in our life right now. I wrote that although this contact with the angelic realm is overwhelming, intriguing and very interesting; nothing changes; and I wonder if there is any benefit (not necessarily personal) in acquiring all this knowledge? Time will tell as I continue to see this through.
