During times such as these, we often hear folks expressing fear about the economy, the housing market, unemployment and Wall Street. Some folks have lost a considerable amount of money in their investments, others have lost their homes. But all of these seeming losses pale in the light of global transformation. Crisis often precedes transformation.

As we reach the end of an age, old systems break down. The negative energy that has been present in race consciousness comes forward to be expressed, released and healed. Our monetary systems are the outward symbols of shared agreements in consciousness. These agreements are always based on assumptions about the nature of reality.

Many of these assumptions are the result of Darwinian thinking, such as survival of the fittest, and competition for resources. More and more, we are realizing the flaws in these assumptions. The future of the human race, and of our planet, depends on cooperation among the life forms, not competition. There is enough to go around—there always has been. It’s a matter of distribution.

As long as we believe that we must hoard our resources, as long as we believe that it is acceptable for the majority of people to live in deprivation, as long as we believe that it is ethical to make a profit by exploiting other people, we are stuck in old age fearful thinking.

We are approaching the tipping point; when enough people share the consciousness of the New Age, the old institutions and mores will automatically crumble.

We’ve seen it before. We saw the Berlin Wall come down. We saw the end of the Cold War. We are seeing this now in the collapse of our financial systems. Just as Feudal Europe gave way to the Renaissance, we are experiencing the birth of a new era—a leap forward in the evolution of human consciousness.
The prophets of our age have been speaking of these times for many years now: Barbara Marx Hubbard, Jean Houston, Eckhart Tolle and many others tell us that we are at the dawn of the New Heaven and the New Earth.

When we read the Book of Revelation, we find 20 chapters of fire, monsters, devils and suffering. The last two chapters are totally different. They are, in fact, the most beautiful in the entire Bible. We read from Chapter 21:

 

“Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying,

 

‘See, the home of God is among mortals.
He will dwell with them;
they will be his peoples,
and God himself will be with them;
he will wipe every tear from their eyes.
Death will be no more;
mourning and crying and pain will be no more,
for the first things have passed away.’”

It is thought that the reason the Bible has two distinctly different endings is that humankind had a choice to make. For centuries, we were headed straight for an Armageddon of consciousness that would have resulted in the doom and disaster portrayed in the first part of Revelation.

But at some point, perhaps at the Harmonic Convergence in 1987, we changed our course. The great gatherings of light workers at sacred sites all over the planet resulted in the awakening of our awareness of our inner divinity. We began to heal the belief in separation—separation from God, separation from nature, separation from each other. In the process of this healing, we diverted our future course into that described in the last two chapters of Revelation. We chose the New Heaven and the New Earth.

There has never been a more exciting time to be alive. There has never been more meaningful work to be done. Those of us born in the latter part of the 20th century came to midwife the New Age. We stand with one foot in old age traditions and the other foot in the freedom and celebration of the New Age. We are the bridge in consciousness that is allowing the human race to evolve.

Now is the time. This is the place. And we are the ones that we’ve been waiting for. Fear not! All is well!
