Good morning! What a ride we have been on these last months! The world is crying out for help and we feel so helpless! Our somewhat re-elected President is now determined to rule the world, if I read him right – never mind that his own country needs help and protection from those who are being turned into our enemies because of his
arrogance in spreading our armies into other countries and trying to make them take on our way of government. At no other time in our history have we needed our connection to the infinite spiritual realm so much.
It is hard to look at the arrogant, ruthless, greedy, leaders of the world and not shoot our feelings of hate and resentment at them and wish them dead. We need to accept that we do feel that way, but hate and
resentment accomplish nothing but create more of the same – we know that. Now is the time to accept that we are spiritual beings who are connected with the Lord and Creator of all things and have the ability
to create strong vibrations of the Love Frequency that this world was created from in the first place!

Watch the leaders of our country on television and consciously, with all the power and determination we can bring up from within our minds and hearts, set their images in our minds and send strong thoughts of their
minds opening to their own inner guidance and conscience that will start to make them think and realize what they are doing wrong. Send thoughts of honesty, fairness, compassion, and the great power of Love
surrounding them completely, leaving them unable to listen to the enticements of the big companies to do their bidding for money and power. Send them courage and thoughts of helping the people who put them
in offices of responsibility. Many of our representatives in government start out trying to do this, but are under tremendous pressure to do otherwise. They need our help. Do not send thoughts that are for our own
personal needs, but for the needs of all. Pick on just one person, if you wish, and pray them right down to their toes with positive, creative, and loving thoughts! If you think this is foolishness, I have a challenge for you. Think of a person in your life who dislikes and gives you grief. Turn your thoughts and prayers to him/her with all the
unconditional love you can muster. Talk about that person to others with glowing words of praise – there is always something to praise in anyone. Turn your resentment of that person to unadulterated Love, and keep it
cooking. You will see in a short time a complete change of their attitude and perhaps even find a new friend. This works! And if this works for one person, it will work for all.

Mass creative thought, or prayer if you prefer, is a powerful way to help our planet with the transformation that is already happening at the physical level. It is up to us to create a world where all people can live without fear, without hunger, and without the pressures from negative forces. This is beginning to happen, believe it or not – just
look around you, listen to those who are waking to these possibilities. The internet is bulging with groups who are working and summoning awakened soul beings to join with them, in mass prayer sessions, in working together in many ways. We are not helpless!! We have the power to bring into being the new world the spiritual beings have been telling us is there waiting for us. It is up to us as to how soon it can happen! We have all decided to be in this fix before we came here, and our mission is to learn how to make it better! Let’s do it!

We, here in the Payson area, have been having wonderful rains, swelling our mountain steams and rivers, soaking into the long-parched land and forest. This was not supposed to happen – but it has. We are very grateful and don’t mind the mud at all! We do not have areas where mudslides are a problem, just hard to get into town sometimes over the flooded river crossings – so what! We are being mightily blessed.

Our daughter and husband are settling in to our basement apartment, getting their things and ours into complimentary positions. It is so good to have them here. We do thank you for all the grand notes, wishes,
and prayers – they have made a difference. Thanks also for the deluge of New Year’s notes, gifts, and donations!
It was just overwhelming. AND, before I forget it (again), thanks to many of you who have been forwarding on this newsletter to friends and relatives. Many new requests to be put on our email list have been
coming in – rah!! May you all also find something wonderful in your lives in this coming
month.

The Valentine tradition is a nice old one, sending loving thoughts and cards to those whom you care about, and
I hope it continues for a long time. It does grate on me though, to see the cards that hurt or use sex as an
excuse for love to talk about. Hurting someone’s feelings in a “funny card” is not a loving thing to do. I won’t be sending cards this year, just too much here to take care of. I do send to all of our readers my deepest Love and appreciation for your kindnesses over the years and to those who are new to this Letter! As they say, HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!

Instead of concentrating on earth change predictions, etc., this month (since there is already so much of this kind of thing on the internet), I am giving you an article from the Masters regarding universal energy that I hope will help all of us realize the magnitude of the living forces all around and within us.

UNIVERSAL ENERGY

“Pulsing through the universe is the heartbeat of life itself. It is not something that can be seen or heard, even by the finest instruments, but is the reality of creative energies, ever being activated by the Father of All Things.

In the lives that you lead on your small speck of matter orbiting around your energizing star, there is also that pulsing within your very beings that determines your effective life force during the lifetime in matter. No matter how strong or determined you are or how strong your own life force is physically, without that hidden pulsing beat of the universe,
you could not exist at all. The energy that you are as a spiritual beings is extremely strong, as you know by now, but the force that activated you at your original inception from the Supreme intelligence streams out from the Mind of God constantly and is that which supports life in all the created universes of the past, present, and future.

Let us try to explain this force. It is electromagnetic in nature to begin with, but includes within it all DNA patterns, all patterns of cellular structures, all of the minute bits and pieces which make up all life (and this includes all inert matter) that has been and is being created constantly. This is the basic energy of life. The pulsing nature
of this force sets it into constant motion throughout all time and space, spreading what is needed for each universe, each galaxy and each planetary entity at specific times. It is from this Force that the intense energy fields now surrounding your planet have sprung.

Universal energy, the energy that fuels the life force of creation, is a constant. It moves about, to be sure, but it moves with the motion of the winds and the energy currents of all nature. You feel it more when there is a violent storm; energy races through the area like a tidal wave. It is always present around each living entity to continually
renew cellular structure, invigorating the living being in every way, especially when the skin areas are exposed entirely, even for short periods of time. Universal energy enters your bodies through the skin, the breath and the eyes. Those who wear dark glasses almost all of their waking hours deprive themselves of needed energy and tend to have to push themselves ever harder as time goes along. Realizing this and concentrating on this movement of energy occasionally will result in heightened awareness and creative abilities.

This pulsing of basic energy is the creative tool of the Master Builder. Whether a new universe or a baby squirrel, without this pulsing energy, there would be no everlasting creation. It is that power that brings together all the elements necessary for each creation; it acts as an adhesive to combine those elements into the form envisioned by the Creator.

The emotion you know as “Love” is the energetic expression of this Creator that fills a space so vast you cannot even imagine Its limits, for It has none. A mother who lives with a tiny being growing within her body cannot help but feel a strong emotion of love, for it is the energy of creation, of which she is then an important part. This mother love
never dies. no matter what the circumstances later on in the lives of both mother and child; it lies in a protected place in the heart. If such a love is so strong in such an infinitesimal being as a human female, multiply that millions and trillions of times to try and understand the Supreme love of the Creator for Its creations, all of them.

The electrical power that fuels your world with all of its myriad societies, is the same energy, no different, nor more, no less. Energy, as you see it, gives out power to bring light, warmth, cooling, communications, and manufacturing, almost everything you do or use in this age. Electric power has been discovered in the roaring of waterfalls, in black chunks of coal that has been storing it for centuries, in the releasing of power from universal atoms. Humanity
cannot create this kind of energy, only release it from storage. Many thinkers and inventors have been learning how to harness universal energy with what are being called “free energy generators”, realizing the power that is there for humanity to utilize for our every need. In the months and years to come the powerful electric companies will be
changing over to this kind of electric power, a little at a time. It is possible, even now, for private parties to find these generators and use them for homes, farms, and businesses. This will be the power you use completely in the future.

Vast amounts of additional energy are being beamed into your Solar System now, to such an extent that it is becoming impossible not to realize the power of energy in the very atmosphere around you, as its effects upon the world’s weather patterns becomes headline news. Your Sun is being energized by this energy to the extent that it is
practically exploding from the shear volume of the inflow, resulting in huge explosions and what you call sun flares, shooting this energy into space. As this energy flows on the Solar Winds in all directions around it, the planets in your solar system are being affected and changed, just as your planet is being changed. Science does not see this as a
repeatable pattern, so they are still mystified as to its cosmic cause. The truth is quite simple. Everything created is growing, changing, dying, and being re-created constantly, as has been acknowledged by your constant exploration of your own universe with the big telescopes and space vehicles. Earth is no different. It is time for the planet to
stretch and perform its scheduled re-creation into a more settled, civilized, abundant, and beautiful world for the Creator’s children to live upon. The earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, storms, etc., etc., are all a part of this, as we have been telling you for years.

The physical and mental changes you have all been observing within yourselves are a part of this just as everything around you seems to take on different aspects over days, weeks or months. When the Solar Wind is disturbing the atmosphere above and around the part of the world where you reside, your nervous system and inner sensitivity becomes tangled and unhinged at times. We don’t tell you to ignore these uncomfortable feelings, for they are real and they are there. Do recognize them for what they are and work around them. The earth is uncomfortable too, as the inner fires produce steam and pressures that crack the crust of the planet and force its plates to heave and collide. Yes, this will continue for a year or so, and that should not be a surprise, nor any consolation for those who live in areas near volcanic vents, earthquake zones, or rivers prone to flooding. You have made your decisions to be there for your own reasons, and we do not argue with that. Do listen to your inner warnings (and the warnings on TV and radio) and move out of harms way when it becomes necessary. Those of you who do this are meant to stay in this lifetime to aid in the reconstruction of your world and humanity. We are with you – listen to your inner voices.

More about all this in coming months.”
