How to Spend (or not spend) Your Holiday Dollars


 
Most of you will be spending extra money on the holidays as spending has trumped the message. Be that as it may, where and on what you spend can be used as a social, environmental, political, and economic statement.

Here's my list on how to spend your hard earned money:

-Don't buy junk. If you know it will hit the landfills in a few short weeks, don't buy it.
-Buy quality and not quantity.
-Buy local. Avoid the chain stores if at all possible. If you must buy from the chains, buy only what you really need and what will last. Avoid trends and what's hot as they will be quickly tossed. Local may well be more expensive for the same item, so search for unique local items of high quality. Who wants to receive what every one else gets.
-Buy green. Yes, it's hard to tell these days what that means. Read labels carefully and pass on those that are a clear environmental threat. Beware of the "all natural" label. Mercury and lead are all natural. There are gifts that can be had from environmental organizations. Buy things of lasting value that won't soon hit the trash bins.

As a consumer, you have the power to determine what products will be offered in the future. Buy crap, and crap is what you'll continue to get. Use your dollars to help protect the environment; to tell businesses that you no longer buy all the hype of useless products; that you'll no longer support products built by child labor or workers subject to intolerable conditions; that quality, durable and useful items will attract your attention, not the junk.

You have the power, use it.

The Myth/Meme, Dilemma of Scarcity


Have you ever seen the phrase, "Hurry while supplies last"? Have you read headlines about food shortages, oil depletion, the water crisis, lack of land? Is the notion of scarcity, real, or fabricated?

Perhaps with respect to a specific consumer item, say an iPhone, it is easy to understand that if only so many are made, then supply is limited. Regarding oil, if they only pump X barrels, then we can see that there will be only so much to go around. If we pollute the water, then there is only so much drinking water that can be consumed. It is easy to understand that there is only so many acres of agricultural land and therefore, only so much food can be produced.

If we view the world parochially, then the notion of scarcity may make sense. Of course, it is also easy to understand that supplies can be manipulated and shortages artificially created. A company make make only so many phones, computers, cars, etc. in order to keep supply low and prices high. In fact, this tends to be the rule, not the exception.

But suppose we take a more worldly and even universal view. There is no shortage of energy on the planet or in the universe. In fact, everything is made of energy. So is it really a question of is there enough oil, or is it simply a matter or trying to determine how to utilize all of the free/abundant energy that exists everywhere? Recent articles in the Huffington Post about teens that invented a flashlight that runs on body heat and on using ambient energy (from radio waves, satellite transmissions, TV, etc) to power small electronic devices are but  small examples of the limitless potential of energy that exists. Of course, we have all heard of Tesla and his free energy devices that have remained hidden. The earth herself is a giant electric generator who is also bathed in electromagnetic energy from the sun and the cosmos. Energy shortage, really?

Okay, but there must be a shortage of food. Well, if you mean cows, corn and rice, you could make the case that there's only so much or that only so much could be produced. However, if we think in terms of sustenance and not pigs, sheep, or grain, it should be a bit clearer that there are limitless ways to sustain life. Science is constantly discovering new super foods, and I don't mean the fake crap they produce in factories using nano-technology, that, while not pizza, they are life sustaining.

Land shortage? Okay, but is there a space shortage? New futuristic building designs are not only energy self-sufficient, but also food self-sufficient; using roof tops, terraces and aqua-culture to grow food. Possibilities are endless.

There is no scarcity other than those self-created or imposed for the purpose of keeping profits high. So what's the dilemma? The concept of limitless supply only works IF you take the universal view. Yes, there is only so much iron on the planet. If it's used up, it's gone. But, it can be forever recycled. There are only so many diamonds. If they're hoarded, they're gone. But so what? We can value something else. There is only so much MONEY? Not true, the Fed has been printing all kinds of money to bailout/give to the banks. We can print all the money we want. It has no intrinsic value other than what we say it has. Water? If all the water is polluted, you will die. But we can stop polluting and we can clean up the water. It is even possible to extract water from desert air and companies have devices that can now do that. Ever hear of 'star water?' It's worth looking up.

The dilemma is just that with a parochial and selfish world view, there are limits, there is lack, and some will have and some will not. But, if humanity as a whole takes a broader view of life, its resources its functions and its requirements, then we discover that we live in an infinite and limitless world in which all things are possible.

Through her advanced spiritual work with Thoth, Danielle Rama Hoffman was introduced to the Council of Light--an intergalactic group of thousands of light beings from across the Multiverse. Their purpose is to support individuals as they shift into Unity Consciousness and return to their natural state of joy. The Council transmitted the teachings in this book for those seeking to accelerate their journey toward health, wealth, happiness, and their soul's deepest desires.

The Council's teachings reveal that by shifting your consciousness and raising your inner vibration, you can change your daily life experience and manifest the life you want. These direct transmissions of spiritual technology from the Council include activations for the 11 Rays of Light, guided journeys and meditations, and written, spoken, energetic, and breathwork exercises to creatively turn your debt into wealth, transfigure your food into light for better health and well-being, enhance your abilities for interdimensional travel, and return to your natural inner state of joy. The Council explains how each Ray of Light has a specific vibration and application and can assist in removing any blocks to achieving your soul's purpose. The Emerald Ray, for example, activates the signature energy of your authentic and full self, and the Venus Ray, the Ray of Opulence, supports alignment with abundance and prosperity.

Offering an opportunity to form a direct connection with the Council of Light, this book provides practical tools to move from a life of worry, debt, exhaustion, and isolation to one of joy, abundance, purpose, ease, and connectedness, with a team of Divine supporters to assist you along the way.

Working with the Council of Light to Manifest the Deepest Desires of Your Soul
by Danielle Rama Hoffman
Through my years working as a spiritual teacher I’ve seen how so many of us are exhausted, stressed, struggling to make money, and bogged down in deep feelings of shame, terror, and fear related to sharing our soul’s purpose. I was once there too. My work with the Council of Light has shown me how to overcome these challenges and consciously shift from fear, separation, and lack to joy, oneness, and abundance.
The first lesson the Council taught me was how our outer experience follows our inner experience. If you make internal shifts in consciousness and vibration, then your outer experience has to follow. You are also a divine transmitter and receiver, constantly transmitting what you need, what would be beneficial for you, and what isn’t quite clicking. This divine transmission allows you to manifest the deepest desires of your soul because all of that is happening on a vibrational level and in that space in the universe everything is vibration.
Let me share with you a simple exercise transmitted by the Council of Light to illustrate this. This exercise offers the perfect starting point to begin your conscious shift to your authentic self.
Working with the Energy of Polarity
Begin to flip and flop between the polarity of these experiences: healthy, unhealthy; wealthy, unwealthy; happy, unhappy; connected, disconnected; happy, unhappy; wealthy, unwealthy; healthy, unhealthy; happy, unhappy; connected, disconnected; and go back and forth fast, fast, fast, fast. It is like you are flipping a coin back and forth until the polarities speed up so much that it creates a hologram of wholeness. Rather than seeing a coin of heads and tails, healthy and unhealthy, as you flip back and forth it creates a hologram—a multidimensional aspect of the coin of healthy.
To clarify this further, let’s identify one aspect. You have this multidimensional coin of healthy that happened because you flip-flopped back and forth through your intention until it sped up so quickly that you created the hologram. Is all contained in the hologram? Yes. Is there the healthy and the unhealthy? Yes, it all exists within the hologram; however, it is the wholeness that is expressed. It is not the imbalance or the unhealthy that is manifest. It is not the healthy that is manifest. It is the wholeness, the beyond, the ascended aspect that is manifest. We could speak of this as neutral; there is positive and there is negative—neutral holds the positive and the negative. They become equal and then they are neutral.
As you are having a negative moment, consciously bring your awareness to a memory of something that you have experienced that was positive—in particular around one subject like health, wealth, happiness, or feeling connected to the Divine—and in your mind switch back and forth. You have a cold, for instance, and you acknowledge, “I have a cold.” Then the next second you say, “Last week I felt vital. I have a cold. When I was a kid I had energy. I have a cold. I’ve been well. I have a cold. I have been well. I have a cold. I have been well. . . .” You say it so fast back and forth and back and forth again that the negative and the positive poles can no longer be distinguished; they merge into unity, into oneness.
The Council would say that when the negative and positive become one then you will have an experience that you would actually call positive. Inherent in the neutral, inherent in the wholeness, inherent in the unity is what you notice or call the positive aspects. As you go back and forth between the positive and negative you create the hologram of neutrality and then you experience health.
There’s a greater enlightenment or detachment that happens where you can still see that healthy and unhealthy are the same thing, it’s just one is manifest and the other is unmanifest. When the duality comes back into unity then you have the experience of something that is far greater than a momentary state of health and a momentary state of unhealth. There is the eternal nature, the broader perspective, the knowingness that all that exists is well-being, all that exists is health, all that exists is unity, and all that exists is joy.
Danielle Rama Hoffman is a spiritual teacher, divine transmitter, and a leader in the shift into Unity Consciousness. The author of The Council of Light and The Temples of Light, she leads tours to Egypt and hosts retreats in southern France. She lives in Seattle.

THE JOY RAY
The Portal to Greater Health, Wealth, and Happiness
TUNING IN
The Willingness to Live an Exquisite Life

Allow yourself to feel, hear, know, see, taste, and sense the energy transfer that is happening in this moment. This is a free will universe so you are in charge of your experience. You are in charge of how much benefit you get from our interaction.

With your free will ask yourself this very important question, “Are you willing to experience more joy in your life?” This seems like the simplest of questions and you may rush to answer “Yes.” You may desire to be happier, to have more joy, and to have more fun. These things may be what you have been longing for. On the surface it is easy to answer, “Yes,” and that is actually all that is necessary. Yet on a deeper level are you really willing to be happy, to be at peace, to see life as a joyous and fun experience? Are you willing to move beyond what you know of separation consciousness or the lack of health, money, time, peace, vitality, and energy? Are you willing to own that you know everything that there is to know about not having enough, about not being enough, and are you willing to step into the unknown of consistent moment-to-moment joy, bliss, and unity?

From our perspective we feel that you have learned everything there is to learn from your repetitive patterns, from your sense of feeling unfulfilled, and that there actually would be more to learn from living an exquisite life.
THE VIBRATION OF JOY

You may think about joy as an emotion. This is partially true. In actuality it is a vibration; it is energy. In its purest form it elicits a harmonic resonance and a peaceful state. As you are connecting to this energy, to this frequency of joy, it encourages your body, mind, emotions, and spirit to align with oneness; to come into a state of unity, into a state of harmony. From this state of harmony you are able to connect to the deepest parts of you: to your spirit, your soul, and your heart’s desire. All of you functions as one unit.

One of the main reasons that you may feel discontent in your life is the splitting of your energy. Your mind thinks one thing, your emotions feel another, your body is in tune with something else, your spirit is singing an entirely different tune--and you may feel confused, scattered, or not present. By introducing the Joy Ray, the energy of joy, into this incoherent vibration there is a unifying effect that happens. You are so much more than you can see, touch, and feel. Your essence is actually timeless; it is eternal.
CHOOSING JOY

You may have a habit of putting most of your attention on what you can think about and what you can see. Yet our hope for you is that you begin to put more attention on your essence, on your eternal nature, and on your multi-dimensional self. As your body, mind, emotions, and spirit come into resonance your eternal nature, your divine nature, your essence is able to communicate with you more fully.

There is also the thought that your external environment is what is dictating your feeling of happiness in life. If there is something in your life that is not to your liking then you feel negative, unhappy, or discontent. If there is something that is to your liking you feel happy and at peace. From our perspective this is one of the main reasons why people feel unhappy. It is a no win situation to allow your inner state and your inner feelings to be dictated by your external environment. The amount of time that you are perfectly the right temperature, have the perfect amount of rest, the perfect amount of nourishment, and all of your conditions are perfect is a small window. Your environment is always changing. If you shift your focus from allowing your external environment to elicit a state of joy or a feeling of joy and you consciously decide to be joyous regardless of any situation then you will have a joyful life. If you choose joy moment to moment then you will have a life of joy.

When you are connected to your expanded self you are in tune with the larger picture of your life--of your soul’s evolution, of your past experiences, of having purpose, and of everything that has happened in your life being the best thing that could have ever happened. It is this expanded state that allows you to be neutral enough to decide that everything in your life is good and is a reason for joy.
SUPPORT EXERCISE
Create a Joy List and Connect Daily to the Joy Ray


We invite you to create a joy list: a list of activities in which you feel joyous when you do them. You may even contemplate putting on your list activities that you have never done but the idea of them brings joy. Place this list close to you where you can see it.

Try to call upon the Joy Ray for five minutes each day. You can begin this segment of your day by stating out loud, “I am willing to have an exquisite life. I call upon the Joy Ray.” Then focus on a joyful symbol, word, or memory to activate this ray. During this time you can also imagine that you are doing the activities on your list. Spending five minutes a day consciously connecting to the energy of joy in its purest state will increase the joy in your life.
