In our channeling group, we were wondering about the practice of forgiveness…and that sparked a really good answer channeled from one of our Council of Love Ascended Masters, my beloved Mary Magdalen. She is so smart about feelings. As we approach the New Year, and leave 2024 behind, it seems like a valuable spiritual practice to forgive ourselves and each other, to live and let live, to let go and bless. Even more so, it feels like the only path to Unity. Enjoy the message… Happy New Year! Love to all, Jennifer
Jennifer: I’m just aligning and receiving: opening my heart and crown… giving my ego some toys to play with, maybe some candy. Get him all sugared up. For some reason, my ego is a he– it’s very funny! …. Ah, so Maggie is here.
Mary Magdalen: Dear ones, I’m grateful for your presence. I’m grateful for your loving circle. I’m grateful for the opportunity to speak with you after my beloved Yeshua spoke with you at the Fall class [Who’s Yeshua? at OLLI, with Linda Dillon channeling Yeshua on forgiving]. I would be happy to elaborate on both of these topics.
Let us begin with forgiveness. Yes, it is extremely important in these times, because it is difficult to hold your divine neutrality without it, whereas if you can say to yourself that you forgive yourself —for your humanity and for everything you didn’t understand that was less than love or that led to an expression of less than the love that you are— you will be elevating yourself to a place where you can observe and offer love both ways, within and without. You see? And forward and backward.
Think also about loving your self of 40 years ago, 50, 60, years ago, 10 years ago, love yourself for the mistakes you made. You are human. Life is about mistakes. The human life is a wonderful arena, a playground, in which to make mistakes. And some of you have become so afraid of making a mistake and so punishing to yourselves when you do so. And this is not helpful. This carries a residue of heaviness within you.
First of all, you will feel some anger, because no one should have to carry this heaviness for so long. And secondly, you will carry some shame, because you think that others will judge you, or have judged you, or you have somehow created a mess in a way that is not forgivable. It is all forgivable. It is all forgivable.
As Yeshua said, forgiving is a way to wipe the slate clean, and you do have with your sovereignty, your divine sovereignty, the supreme ability, the divine ability to forgive and to wipe the slate clean. So allow yourself that. Clarity leads to clarity. Allow yourself that purity, which you essentially are, to be the spokesperson for your being, to be the presence, to be your Divine Presence.
So, the forgiving within, and the forgiving without, and the forgiving without works in the same way. You allow others that same tender understanding that they are human. They do not know what they are doing, they do not understand what they are doing, and those few who may understand and still prefer to stir the pot, so to speak, will be forgiven as well, because anyone in the fullness of their own divinity would not choose to create chaos of this type.
And so they are not in the fullness of their own being. They have perhaps forgotten. They have, perhaps at some point, denied themselves the ability to be fully good, to be fully love. They are, in many cases, punishing themselves so harshly that they believe they are only capable of evil, of ill, of mis-creation, you see, so… it’s, well, “If I am not going to love and I’m not going to be loved, then I’m just going to create as much trouble as I can.”
You understand this, you have all had twinges of this, perhaps in a situation in which you were held unjustly apart from the love of those who you love. Yes, this is part of the human experience, all aspects of separation. But is it ultimately truethat we are separate from one another? No. This is the illusion. This is the illusion, the illusion of separation, you see. So all are, all are forgivable, and you are capable of forgiving all, as you give them the same loving tenderness that you can offer to your own dear self. And you know your own ability to love and your own desire and longing to be understood and accepted and loved, despite your faults, despite your choices, which at times have caused some harm.
….. I so enjoy our coming together in this way. It is a great pleasure for me, and thank you for all that you are contributing to the world at this time by your being you, in the many ways that that expresses.
Blessings on each of you.
