Where will you live in 2025?
I recently had someone tell me that if the 2024 US Presidential election was won by a particular person, they would probably move to Europe. We already know a couple who have moved to Europe because the atmosphere in the United States has become unwelcoming to this couple. The friend looked at me to see if I would move outside of the US if the election did not go the way my Lower Self Ego might want it to. I mentioned that I would check with guidance to see what the highest plan is for me, but I doubted I would be guided to live outside the country.
Knowing my path might be different than for my friend, I did a quick check-in with my soul. For 2025, as well as for the rest of this year and every subsequent year, I am being guided by my soul not so much where I should live physically but where I should live consciously. I am guided to live in peace and without fear regardless at which latitude and longitude I rest every night. I was pretty sure this was the answer I would receive from my soul because my number one priority, as the Christ tells us, is for my spiritual evolution. Trying to find a different place to live in order for me to feel more at ease won’t be fruitful until I simply feel more at ease within myself.
Knowing I haven’t fully mastered this yet, I asked my soul for some wisdom to help me manifest the highest plan for me.
I was guided to open my notes from a Mastery Group class channeled by Kris Duffy in October 2008. “Disconnecting from Mass Consciousness” is the title of this Mastery Group class.
To refresh our memories regarding what was happening in the outer world in October 2008, the United States financial systems, as well as most of the rest of the world’s financial systems, were reeling from the Subprime Mortgage Crisis. Many countries were passing bail out plans for banks, institutions and depositors. The United States was coming to the end of a presidential election year where the two major party tickets were led by Barack Obama/Joe Biden and John McCain/Sarah Palin. (Beyonce’ released Single Ladies that month, just to give you a time cue for the music of the day.)
Spirit would like us to revisit some of the wisdom Kris channeled for us then.
In the mass consciousness, money is source. If we believe money is source, then the mass consciousness doesn’t want the old paradigm to change. Or it is possible that those of us in the mass consciousness believe that the changes are temporary, and we will be able to ride out the storm.
Based on my consciousness level 16 years ago and where we were as a society on the “break down for breakthrough” spectrum, I probably believed I could ride out the storm. Or that the storm would not affect me if I planned well enough. (I was a project manager at the time.) But if, as Kris channeled, the old paradigm was built on the Mass Consciousness of limitation and the belief that we need to get our fill prior to everything running out, then there is no way to ride out the storm. It isn’t about husbanding our resources for a few years of draught; it is about changing our belief in limitation. And that means disconnecting from mass consciousness. If Kris was channeling this information now, she might even have been guided to include a subtitle, “Disconnecting from Mass Consciousness: Disconnecting from Mass Hysteria.”
Most humans in the world are in fear and in separation, which means we are coming from a victim mentality. Kris gave us this explanation. Let’s use the pyramid pointing up like we do in Standing in the Light® representing the third dimension.
We are looking at how the unhealed mass consciousness creates the fear. The top third of the pyramid is the consciousness representing thought. The middle third is the subconscious representing emotions. The lower third is the unconscious representing raw energy.  The raw energy comes up through the subconscious layer and we feel fear in the mass consciousness.
 
For the unhealed mass consciousness, thoughts and energies existing in the subconscious are created and sustained by fear which manifests as a subconscious need for a system of beliefs to protect oneself from perceived harm.
 
We then create whole belief systems to try to not ever feel the fear again, vs. clearing the fear, or seeing that there was nothing to fear at all in the first place.
If we are allowing ourselves to be controlled by what everyone else believes, then we are going to be coming from fear and see ourselves as victims. We have discussed in SITL classes about the Karpman Drama triangle. This is a psychological model that states that while we are still in the consciousness level of drama, we will be playing one or more of the roles in this triangle. We will be acting from the energy of the victim, the rescuer or the persecutor. It is possible to roll through all three of these energies in rapid fashion. We believe we are the victim, so we start to persecute others for putting us in this position and we may be looking for a rescuer or think our ideas are the only way society can be saved.
We create governments, alliances, tribes, parties, friends and family in order to feel powerful, to overcome feeling powerless, to help us sleep easy at night without fear. Until those groups, divisions and separate identities no longer work. Maybe we are now on the outside of the powerful group. Maybe our alliance partners no longer have the same world view we have. We no longer feel powerful and safe because power coming from the outside is temporary. Only power from within is permanent. Divine power is from within.
The mass consciousness on earth believes we are separate from source. It is time to disconnect from this mass consciousness.
Sixteen years ago, Kris recommended seven steps for disconnecting from mass consciousness. These have been updated for 2024 energies but are very similar. Check with your own guidance to see which of these are part of your path.
First, acknowledge there is a mass consciousness. Then allow yourself to go through the 5 stages of grief to disconnect from it.
- Denial – “I am not at the effect of mass consciousness thought.” “The news doesn’t bother me.” “I don’t watch the news, so the news doesn’t bother me.” “I limit my social media interactions…”
 
- Anger – “If the XXXX and the XXXX would just talk to each other, the XXXX would be in a better position.” This could be world powers, your siblings or your lower self ego interacting with your soul. If we leave our own experience to the outcome of someone else’s actions, then we are still in victim mode.
 
- Bargaining – “I just need to make it through the next election/ the next layoff at work / the next winter, etc.” This is trying to bargain to ride out the storm, whatever the storm is to you. Move through this step because it won’t work in the long-term.
 
- Depression – Clear through the energy that nothing I do matters. “We are all just moving chairs around the deck of the Titanic.”
 
- Acceptance – This is knowing and feeling divine acceptance of the universal truth that we are not separate from source so we don’t need to be at the same energy level or at the effect of the mass consciousness.
 
Second, work with your soul to clear the fear and ask for recommended resonances. Clear the false beliefs, discordant emotions and old patterns of behaviors. Ask your soul to help you move from reactions based on fear to proactive actions specifically beneficial to your spiritual growth.
 
Third, ask your soul to help you be your true self in every moment. We are unique expressions of source, so be unique. Allow your light to shine through. Expressing your uniqueness will help transmute mass consciousness. Be fearless and resolute in your uniqueness. Ask if your soul has a specific message for you regarding your uniqueness.
 
Fourth, stand in your truth and your power. Ask your soul when to stand in your power by speaking your truth and when to stand in your power simply with your energy vs. with your words.
 
Fifth, cultivate a community that is trying to disconnect from mass consciousness, also. Attend healing circles and dance groups that are likeminded. Ask your soul if it is time to reconsider your relationship with social media. Is it the highest plan to disconnect electronically for a certain number of hours a day? This is definitely an individual plan. Ask what yours is.
 
Sixth, love yourself at all times. Clear any doubts or judgment of self. The Christ tells us that judgment is the number one block to knowing ourselves as Source. Work with the energy of divine Non-Judgment of Self. Love yourself unconditionally.
 
Seventh, remember who you are. You are Source. You are the creator of your experiences. You can choose to give your power away to unhealed mass consciousness. Or you can choose to step further and further into knowing and experiencing yourself as Source.
It is time to redouble our intention to disconnect from mass consciousness, mass hysteria and drama. It is time to actively follow guidance further into the fourth and fifth dimensions. Move further into the consciousness levels of a master instead of the third dimensional mass consciousness. Living in the fourth and fifth dimensions is more determinative of our experiences than whether we live in the United States, Europe or on a remote Pacific Island. Where do you want to live and how soon are you ready to move?

In downtown Fort Collins the other day, I saw a driving school car with a sign that said, “Patient Driver Please Be Student.” I laughed out loud. Obviously, you normally would see a sign on a driving school car say something like “Student Driver: Please Be Patient.” I don’t think the author of the sign put the words in the wrong order by accident. I think the author of the sign was being funny, saying something different to catch our attention or deliberately asking us to be thoughtful.
I like any of these options. The world needs more laughter, so if the goal was just to be funny, I am happy for the chuckle it gave me.
If it was to catch our attention to be more mindful with a student driver, then mission accomplished.
If, however, the author was hoping that we would dig into our own psyche to figure out what “Patient Driver Please Be Student” meant to us, well I like that too. For me, the saying reminded me that, in life, I am a student, regardless of my age, degrees or careers. There may be some things that I am an expert in but there are plenty of situations where I will learn best by allowing myself to be in student mode. I will learn more by not judging myself when it takes me a few tries or even when I fail at first to accomplish the desired outcome.
Recently, Ginger Withee lead a healing circle for embracing our inner child of the God/Goddess. The energy we focused on was the trust, surrender and innocence of being a child of the God/Goddess. Whether the author of the sign was asking us to embrace the trust, surrender and innocence, I don’t know. But, it feels like this is a message for me to ponder. I need to embrace this innocence, this child energy, this student energy. It will help me heal cynicism and other energies that we take on in our “adult” roles.
Finally, the sign also reminded me that being patient as a driver and as a human, with others and myself, is in the highest good of all. By holding divine patience, I will serve mother earth and humanity positively and more consciously. As suggested by Gandhi, if I hold divine patience, I will be the change that I want to see in the world.

Earlier this month, Ginger Withee lead the Standing in the Light® Gathering with her channeled teaching called “Healing 3D Reality: It is all about the Energy.” One of the suggestions in the teaching is that it is time for us to let go of our stories.
Ginger explains what she means by stories. “In the third dimension, our situations and experiences can only be explained by our stories, our history, in this lifetime.  We can become invested in our stories as our identity: ‘I’m this way because my mother is this way. I have that issue because that event happened to me.’ The lower self can become attached to certain stories to justify holding onto our unhealed aspects or to reinforce a certain reality that feels comfortable.”
What are the old stories in our lives or in our culture that we hold onto that no longer serve us? Ginger asked us to take a couple minutes to determine what stories we need to let go of in order to no longer be in the drama of the 3D Reality.
I immediately heard that I allow myself to be sucked back into the drama of 3D Reality when other people have a different understanding of the 3D Reality facts than I do or don’t remember the facts as I remember them.
I realized that just the evening before the Gathering, I went to a dinner party at a friend’s house. After dinner, I walked into the kitchen where two other dinner guests were discussing current news events. One friend was stating his opinion that some of the government activities we see in the outer world right now are the worst, most violent government activities ever. Without being invited into the conversation, I said, “What about Genghis Khan?” My friend said, “He isn’t alive right now.” To which I replied, “Neither are the 40 million people he killed.” Yep, there’s me not being pulled into, but jumping with both feet into the drama of the 3D Reality…and, if we are honest about it, a pretty low frequency of 3D drama.
You can fact check me if you want. Forty million is the number bandied about by most resources as the number of people who died under the leadership of Genghis Khan. Most of these people were from China and modern-day Iran. At the turn of the thirteenth century, that is approximately 10% of the world population. And, as Kris Duffy use to say, “that and 25 cents will buy you a cup of coffee.”
What was gained by my interruption and my 3D facts? Did it change my friend’s mind regarding the horrors he is seeing currently? No. Did it raise my vibration so that I can help with the conflicts my friend is seeing currently? No.
What it allowed me to do is to worry about the situation for the rest of the evening and into the next day until Ginger prompted us to figure out what keeps bringing us back into the drama of 3D Reality. As soon as I checked with guidance and heard that 3D facts are keeping my frequency low, I laughed and knew that I needed to clear on “being right.” Do I want to be “right” in the 3D Reality? Or do I want to be detached and at peace in the 4D/ 5D realities?
Do I want to postulate that there were people and times equally or more violent in the history of Mother Earth and her humans than now? How is that conversation helping me or Mother Earth or her humans, now? I don’t think it is. If it is, if I was guided that somehow these facts would help bring humans together, to know ourselves a One, to know ourselves as Source, I believe I would be guided to mention it. But, somehow, I don’t think that will be the piece of information that helps move humanity to Heaven on Earth.
Having the 3D Reality facts, histories and stories, whether they are from previous centuries and other peoples’ experiences, or whether they are from my own incarnation at this time, if they are keeping my frequency low, then they no longer serve me. Time to let them go.

Boston Legal is a television series that ran from 2004 to 2008 which, as the name implies, is about a law firm in Boston. There are many stars on the show but three of the main characters are played by James Spader, Candace Bergen and William Shatner. I enjoyed the show back in the day and, again, when I rewatched it earlier this year on Amazon Prime.
I was thinking about the 2005 Halloween episode the other day; “Witches of Mass Destruction”. In one of the storylines in this episode, Candace Bergen’s character represents a Christian couple and a Wiccan couple in suing their children’s elementary school. Both couples want to cancel the Halloween parade that the school always holds. The Christian couple want to stop the parade because they believe it encourages occult ideas and lifestyle. The Wiccan couple want to stop it because they feel that the representation of witches stereotypes them as evil.
Spoiler Alert: In the end, the judge rules in favor of the school saying that neither group, the Christians nor the Wiccans, are harmed by the parade because Halloween “is all about the candy”.
Normally, this is how I feel about Halloween. It is all about the candy, the costumes, the joy, and the parties.
However, this year, I heard to scratch the surface a little bit more to see if I still have some fears and beliefs that need to be healed. I heard to look at the times I might have played on the dark side to bring these actions to light so I can heal them.
On the other side of the pendulum, I am being guided to look at the times when I was accused of being on the dark side, when I wasn’t. I need to be willing to forgive others and to stand in my light and in my power, no matter how others might have interpreted my actions.
Also, I am guided to look at when I was the one persecuting others for their actions whether they were playing on the dark side or being accused of being on the dark side.
There are many aspects to all the lifetimes I had regarding the characters we usually only think about around Halloween. I need to reveal and heal them all. Whether I was the victim, the rescuer or the persecutor I need to heal these situations. I use Reiki, other energy modalities or the resonances of Light and Love to clear the dense energy I am still holding. This allows me to heal all the situations and bring myself into Light without judgment, without fear and without regret. No matter which character I played in any given lifetime, it is time to heal and remember myself as Light, as Source.
That is the sweetest candy of all.
May you know yourself as Light, as Source.
Namaste. Lori

The other day, I started a meditation with the intention to end my participation in the experiment in duality. Many of you have probably sat in your meditation chair for the same reason. This is a valid reason for meditating. Some might even say it is THE reason to meditate – End the Experiment in Duality and become a Full Living Master.
However, I realized my urgency to finally end my participation in the experiment was because I didn’t want to listen to and become frustrated with the next election cycle in the United States. As Kris Duffy, a great master said, “It’s not the What. It’s the Why.”
My “why” for wanting to end my participation in the experiment wasn’t because I have truly given myself over to the higher frequencies of Love, Wisdom and Power. It wasn’t because I wanted to be of service to others from the higher frequency of a Full Living Master. It was because I didn’t want to hear anyone else’s take on love, wisdom and power. I didn’t want to listen to others tell me they are being of service and acting for the benefit of the country, when all I see is divisiveness.
As soon as I realized what I was doing – that I was masking a negative spiral down in energy with the rhetoric of meditating my way to a higher frequency – I stopped. I laughed at myself. And I saw the mirrors of the outer world for what they are.  Mirrors of me working on my own ability to hold Divine Love, Wisdom and Power. Mirrors of my own divisiveness between my lower-self ego and my true self as Source.
Now that I am not trying to end the experiment as a form of highly effective noise canceling headphones, here are a few of the recommendations I heard from guidance.
- Clear judgment of any and all humans and artificial intelligence creations – politicians, reporters, online bots, citizens, non-citizens and foreign interests.
 
- Allow others to be who and what they are no matter where they might be in their process. Clear judgment of where they might be in their process.
 
- Detach from what others feel, think, say and do. Everyone is allowed their own opinion even if it appears to me that the opinion is based on fear, group think, misinformation or manipulative actions. See the mirrors for when I act from fear, group think, misinformation or manipulative actions. Trust in guidance as my source of truth. Trust guidance for my action steps in alignment with the highest good of all.
 
- Clear giving my power and my physical, mental and emotional well-being to the Constitution of the United States and to those people and institutions who tell me what my relationship with the Constitution should be.
 
- Clear blocks to divine communication with all aspects of myself. Take steps to heal any separation between all aspects of myself.
 
- Be open to more recommendations.
 
- Clear self-judgment when I fall short on implementing these recommendations.
 
- Lather, rinse, repeat.
 
That is my list of recommendations. Sit with your soul to determine what recommendations will help you end your participation in the experiment of duality.
Namaste.
I AM Lori
