The Journal of a Spiritual Seeker, Light Protects and Guides
Hello Seekers,
I love this message, and messages like this I’ve received through the years. They clarify something for me energetically and remind me that there is nothing here that is aspirational. It all simply is, and in accepting the Flow of Light, we can be present for what is. There is nothing to work on or labor toward, we just recognize that we are. And that is the flow.
So much of the connection to oneness that I’ve experienced has come when those I’ve loved have died, and yet I can still feel them with me and hear their guidance. These messages promised that, but even still I was a bit shocked and amazed at how much I could feel that reality once those I loved had passed. Nothing has taught me more about the interconnectedness and the everlasting energy that is unconditional love than death.
There have been a variety of experiences in my life that have been quite painful, when relationships I thought were one thing turned out to be something else and they ended. Questioning who I am through the lenses of how other people see me has been a real issue, and one I’ve had a lot of opportunities to confront through my life. So when this work began, and it seemed a bit out there and I wondered how I’d ever be able to tell my friends and family what it was I was actually doing, I worried a lot. And a lot of my resistance was born from the unfounded fear that they wouldn’t love me anymore. Slowly, I unwound that fear, had interesting conversations with many of those people, and realized that what the Light said to me all along was true. People already knew and loved me. And that what my therapist always says is true too. That people want to know each other, and until we give others the opportunity to know us for who we really are, we’re blocking the flow of love. We’re the ones making it all conditional, and it doesn’t have to be.
As with everything, this is a work in progress!
As the Light says here: you’re going to be okay, friends.
Lots of love,
Jodie

Message from the Light, Oct. 24, 2017
You are going to be okay. You need to hear and believe that today, because it’s imperative you step into the stream of Light and you can’t do so unless and until you feel safe. So feel safe, because you are. The Light protects you and guides you. The Light is the stream and you are the stream and you are the Light and we are asking you to join this universal oneness.
In this place, you are connected to all things and that connection is light and it is beautiful.
“We’re made of star stuff,” Carl Sagan said, and star stuff is light and we are all a part of this universal light.
The things you are being asked to shed and leave behind are pain, anxiety, depression, anguish, fear, paranoia, untruths and misunderstandings. These are the torture devices people use against themselves when they are not connected to the light of their soul. (Note from my teacher: veils of illusion appear to part us from the light of our soul, but we’re always connected.)
Step into the stream and allow it to wash away any and all energies that are not of light, harmonize any and all discordant frequencies and allow yourself to be in union with your soul in its deepest purpose as a channel of light.
You feel pain now — not just physically, but in your heart chakra. This is a part of what you are processing. Allow it to expand and dissolve. Allow it too transmute.
Be present in your pain. Allow it to be an indicator of energetic imbalances. Call attention to it, ask the Light to move around it and though it and transmute it and release it.
Step into the stream.
Stay open to the Light. Allow yourself to exist permanently in this place of connection to the Light.
Be grounded in Light.
Be connected to Light.
Feel safety in Light and your connection to Light, for it protects you.
Me: I ask the Light, why am I feeling so much resistance to this right now?
Because you are still afraid and fear is driving you away from your true calling.
Me: Why am I so worried about what other people will think?
Because you are afraid of losing their love. You believe love is conditional, and in order to be worthy of love, you must be all things to all people, leaving little room to be you for yourself. Let these things go — they are constructs you use to limit your own power, for that is what you are truly afraid of. Be who you are. This is not a stretch — it’s not aspirational or something you have to work for or reach for. It simply is and you simply are. So be. And allow. And the flow of light and love will come. Regardless of what other people think. Once you are fully committed, these things will be insignificant.

Exercise: Begin each exercise by grounding and protecting. For more information on how, see this post.
Visualize yourself standing in a stream. Check in with your surroundings as you stand in this stream — however you experience your senses: what can you see, hear, smell, taste or touch? How is the stream moving around you? Can you feel the pull of the current against your legs? As you continue to experience this scene, notice how you connect to what the Light said here: “The Light is the stream and you are the stream and you are the Light and we are asking you to join this universal oneness.” How does that affect how you feel? Once you’re ready, let go and come back to your 3-D location, knowing that you are guided and protected in Light and by Light. Feel free to write down or record some notes on your experience with the visualization, and see where the process of recording the experience takes you.

A brief note: This journal and its exercises are simply a means to help you find your own flow. There is no pressure to follow them exactly or read each and every one. It does not need to be read in order either, so if you miss one, don’t feel like you’ve failed or fallen behind. These messages are here to hold space for you as you discover and evolve within your spiritual practice.
This is the first volume of The Journal of the Spiritual Seeker, and I’m presenting it here on The Devic Connection website, serialized over the last 10 weeks of 2020, with weekly roundups via email (you can sign up in the box at the bottom of this page if you’d like to receive these.) If you’ve just arrived here and would like to start from the beginning, here’s the link to the first post.

We all need help with clarity …
Sometimes, things come up in the healing journey that we can’t quite manage by ourselves. I’m fortunate to have people I can call on to help me gain that clarity. And I’m also in therapy, which helps immensely with processing the psychological and mental health issues. If you find yourself getting stuck on this journey or having something come up that you need some guidance on, please do seek help. An internet search can help you find a qualified mental health practitioner for those psychological issues. And if you’re looking for help from the Light on the spiritual questions, I have some availability for readings. (Read more about that here.)
