Greetings in Gratitude!

Becoming System is not for the faint of heart. I'll explain "becoming System" in a moment, but just let me say first what so many have said when finding themselves in the middle of a new creation; a creation intended, with results unexpected: If I'd known what I was getting myself into, I wouldn't have.

Now, truly, even in the middle of this I know I would have begun anyway. Why? Because I am so awfully (insert any cuss word you like) curious. And being curious has its huge rewards, and even though the price can be high, I'm willing to pay it. I do really know this is my path. As if I never had a choice. But that is part of the Mystery; I simply accept some things I know are true.

About 20 years ago what I then called, "Spirit," said to me, "Humanity is on the brink of the greatest leap in consciousness it will ever know; the leap from believing itself to be part of - and subject to - many systems, to knowing itself to BE SYSTEM.

And so we are in such a process. Whether it be spiritual, governmental, economic, medical, educational, systems have evolved with us as such powerful forces that we have believed they have the power, not us. Yes, we rail against them, we object, we reclaim our power from time to time, but reacting against a thing gives it power. We have a conditioned reaction to being part of systems over which we believe we have no say, no latitude. Spirit said that day, "This is the biggest lie." Each person is System, with all its attributes, all of its power and responsibility, with limitless energy to create.

So we are evolving into, recalling gradually, that we are System. We are born of, therefore have all the genetically generated qualities of, the System that created us. Whether you call it System or call it Creator or God is your choice. You are it, so call it whatever suits you.

We are recalling that we are System. We are reclaiming our birthright, and it does not require a protest, a revolutionary war or a letter to our congressman to achieve it. It requires surrender, and it means surrendering many of the ways in which we have known ourselves. I should interject here that you are not required to intentionally hoist your sail to journey in this direction. Many will do so and will do so for the many, just as it has always been. But if you intend yourself to join the movement, then know the journey has its ups and downs.

One thing in my current journey is coffee. I have been a dedicated and addicted coffee drinker, one might say aficionado, most of my adult life. My sister, Judith, and I have said that we could handle any change except, "Please don't take away our coffee!" And here I am, not drinking coffee. Just woke up one morning a few weeks ago and forgot to make coffee. Oh, the ritual, the fragrance, the satisfying first sips of a mug of really good, dark coffee. Gone. This past weekend with Anita here, I made coffee for her and had a few sips to see if I might simply have been in some strange slump, but, no, its magic seems to have evaporated.

An interesting correlation seems to be that when System guided me to re-mineralize my drinking water with sea salt a couple of months ago, I seem to have corrected something in my physical system that has released my craving for coffee. My Vitamin Bible says that coffee leaches essential minerals out of our systems, so it seems I was guided to replenish those minerals and the result is this shift in my habits.

While on the subject, our friend Nancy has been gleaning information about the changes in Earth's magnetics, and System has been directing me to explore similar patterns. My own magnetics have apparently changed as I have replenished minerals lost through years of drinking coffee. And, yesterday I realized that this is all a part of my becoming System.

Just to clarify. We are all System. So when I refer to System leading me, I am saying that I have not yet recalled myself as System. I am in the evolution of recalling myself as system and while doing so still refer to System as a guiding force; me, but not yet fully realized.

I have shared with you who read this blog and with many clients and friends that my energy has fluctuated over the past couple of years. There have been times when just returning a phone call has been too much; when making a meal was an effort. I've been in a state of learning to receive through surrender, and it has been a most unique experience. I am grateful to say that I have made much progress. Retrieving myself is a relief, and the journey continues.

Continuing to realize new levels of surrender and releasing old patterns are parts of recalling myself as System. Another condition of this journey is standing as the observer, watching my self and my life. I actually saw another me walking alongside me one day. Same person, same clothing, another me walking beside me. Waking to the true observer self, more objective, more dispassionate, is a part of recalling System as Self/Self as System.

I've wrung as much out of this as I can right now. Wherever you are, whatever you are doing or intend to do, I know change is a theme for most of you. And it will come with greater ease as we breathe and surrender - together.

Until next time,
I AM Phyllis, Still Becoming
