Trusting The Opening Of Insight And Intuition

By: Julie Redstone

There are many souls who are opening now to a deeper level of knowing and
perceiving than generally occurs through the physical senses. Sometimes this
knowing comes in the form of internal messages of a verbal kind. Sometimes
it comes in the form of wordless insights about others, about oneself, about
the future, or about any other meta-perception that exceeds ordinary
knowledge. These insights are occurring in an accelerated way, now, due to
the presence of greater light on the earth. This light, absorbed by both body
and consciousness, advances the state of spiritual knowing and
understanding, producing a wealth of new experiences depending upon what
a soul is open to.

In the face of these greater openings, doubt can also arise concerning the
validity of the new, and especially in the beginning, a fear of taking them
seriously or of being wrong about them can occur. For some, there may also
be a fear of knowing more or sensing more because of previous feelings of
not trusting the self or of feeling the self to be unworthy.

All doubt arises from an absence of light of sufficient strength to create clarity
and a sureness about what one is feeling and sensing. In the presence of light
and while immersed in it, doubt is replaced by clear-thinking and clear-seeing
and at least for the moment, it becomes possible to know what is true and
what is not true. Yet for many, the experience of clarity is not constant, and
so when the moment of greater clarity passes, the self returns to lower level
personality concerns and starts worrying again that its perceptions and
intuitions are not real.

Stabilizing light in one's body and consciousness is of great importance when

one is beset by doubt, since the constancy and continuity of a vibrational
atmosphere in which one lives, breathes, and conducts all the activities of the
day, seals out the forces creating doubt and allows the vibration of the
mental and emotional bodies to remain relatively constant. While all doubt
will only be removed when a sufficiently high vibration of light enters the
picture, lower levels of doubt can be eliminated even now, and the psyche
can become significantly less troubled by concerns of being wrong or
misguided.

The problem of learning to see clearly applies not only to the phenomenon of
developing extraordinary or intuitive perception, but also to the phenomenon
of seeing oneself clearly and others clearly. Here, too, perception has often
been governed by personality factors that have created emotional filtering
and a skewed view of others. When insight occurs, this generally takes the
form of seeing one's own motivations and attitudes more clearly as well as
seeing the other more clearly, and so there are greater opportunities now, in
the presence of increased light, for the healing of relationships to take place.

Another area in which illuminated insight can have a healing effect is in the
area of intuiting things about the future. One can have an inner perception of
what is to come based entirely on an inner knowing, because the soul can
communicate such knowledge to the conscious mind which may carry it with
varying degrees of confidence. Though the future cannot be fully known
because it is in a continual process of unfoldment, there are many primary
currents related to planetary transformation which remain stable and can be
seen, felt, and sensed, based on the increased infusion of soul-knowledge
into the personal self.

Such soul-knowledge is always positive, because the outlook for the future
that is transmitted from the soul does not contain fear but only hope, and
because God's plan for the earth is one of great promise and of the fulfillment
of promises made in the beginning. However, where fearful elements are
added to this perception, it is generally because the personal or smaller self
is viewing the original intuitive perception from its own standpoint of
observation, and is feeling unready to meet the future portrayed, or afraid of
the changes that lie ahead.

The capacity for increased insight, today, occurs because of the accelerated
movement between dimensions of consciousness. This brings knowings of the
higher self or soul into the sphere of conscious mental activity in increasing
amounts. This phenomenon, a gift of the time we are in, asks of those who
are experiencing intuitive openings to seek an inner way of validating and
becoming comfortable with these through stabilizing one's awareness in the
higher vibrations of light. In this way the higher elements of knowledge and
intuition will continue to have clear access to the conscious self, and the
conscious self will gain a greater measure of certainty about its new
perceptions and insights.
