The Free Radical

“I’m not a tube of toothpaste!” But sometimes it sure feels like it!

Let this serve as a brief commiseration. The reports are coming in, and it’s clear that we’re in the thick of things right now. Like aspiring diamonds, we’re being compressed… and all that is not of glitter and shine is being squeezed from our bodies.

For the past two weeks, the most common description I’m receiving is that many of us are feeling simultaneously restless and exhausted. Part of us wants to get up and run while the rest of us wants to go back to sleep. Unplanned naps are insinuating themselves into our busy schedules, and yet as night falls we can’t find rest in our beds.

Additionally, our dreams are presenting new situations and challenges. Many are indeed reporting new dreaming identities being discovered, but sometimes those identities don’t even have our familiar human construction. There’s at least two things going on here. Some of us, at a soul level, are not predominantly human, so alternative body constructs are now entering our remembrance. And secondly, even our fully human attributes are undergoing radical recalibration and reconfiguration.

The parts of the body currently being targeted all reside in the upper half. There may be a few minor lingering issues in the lower back, but mostly the reconfiguration has moved upward. Last week especially there was restlessness and tension centred in the mid-back to shoulder region. The physical sensations of stiffness, stagnation, and pain often alternated with a need for vigorous movement to dispel a strange muscular irritability, mostly characterized as restlessness. Some felt odd sensations centred directly within the heart. The reconfiguration does involve the interaction between the spiritual heart and the physical appendages of acting and doing– our arms. Our primary means for manipulating the world around us in physicality is expressed through our arms and hands. Historically, our actions have been centred about our heads– our thinking. Etherically it is as though our arms grew from our ears (which might also account for our listening problems!). The current energetic recalibration has our actions returning to a heart-centred orientation. Many of us are not used to this, having learned to be predominantly cerebral in order to survive in Earth’s former density. It can be somewhat uncomfortable having our arms reattached again at the heart level.

And now this week, the endless tinkering has moved to the tops of the shoulders, into the neck and out through the head. Old thought patterns and attitudes are finding their way out. Physically, this is manifesting as all sorts of maladies involving stiff and cramping necks, tense shoulders, sinus or ear problems and even eruptions on the scalp. That which is no longer useful is making its way out one way or another.

Do whatever you can to ease the discomfort as it arises. The key is simply to remember that the overall process involved is one of purging. It is a flow from within unclogging the channels to the external expression in physicality. Except in rare cases, it is not an affliction coming from the outside as an invader; it is what is already there, and has likely been there for a very long time, that is making its final exit.

This process is happening to all of us in some way or another. The ways in which such an occurrence can express itself are literally endless. Highly inexplicable behaviour in individuals refusing to cooperate with the process is being witnessed individually and collectively. Two such manifestations upon the world stage centred around individuals are the bizarre and incomprehensible actions of the South Korean ferry captain, and the accused in the quintuple homicide in Calgary last week (Matthew de Grood). For some, the intensity is just too much… and they’re blowing their circuits! To a lesser degree, many in our everyday lives are behaving uncharacteristically. We’ll have to cut each other some slack, but also remain vigilant for further “volcanoes” about to erupt.

The psycho-spiritual virus known as wetiko (Paul Levy; Dispelling Wetiko) is being forced into the light. It is the source of transpersonal evil… and it’s fighting for its very life, so we can well expect some extreme manifestations. Stay centred; stay grounded; remain vigilant. Hopefully, we can work through this quickly now.

There will be another TOURS update in a few days.
