Consciousness Shift

For some years now, I have been educating young people about the consciousness shift.

Through art and meditation we can come to a place of high vibration when we are working with passion; In the no mind state / the daydream we access the super conscious mind - the microcosm of universal consciousness.

We are all individual 'cosms.'

The super consciousness contains information that our conscious mind does not know what to do with.
It is rather like the branches of a tree. The deeper we go into our super consciousness the further we can travel in our knowing of the universe and multiverse.

Understanding of our universe and our full place in it, as well our understanding of other universes is an inward journey.

We are a microcosm of the universal macrocosm. All information can be inspired in the no mind state.
Drawn through the artist and onto canvas, knowledge evolves through the painted journey.

We are infinite, and live lifetime after lifetime experiencing relationship after relationship, in order that we come to know ourselves. So that we can return to our innate energy, which is love.
Once we have found our true nature, our consciousness expands, as we now have the ability to see more, feel more, comprehend more. Working with spirit, Ascended Masters and Archangels, becomes a way of life.
Walking between the worlds becomes the norm, and this process leaves an energy signature.

By being a channel for free creative expression, on a regular basis, a student forms an energy pathway that becomes so strong that a person can be here and there simultaneously. ie here and in spirit at the same time.
This process, as it is accompanied with a state of high vibration, brings this link to earth, and anchors it here.
The more people on earth that learn to do this, the higher the planetary energy. The higher the planetary energy, the more people will shift their consciousness.

Before such a high vibration is reached, we must focus on ourselves and begin to practice self love.
Our general demeanour throughout our lives needs to be bought into balance.
One where we are in control of our moods and are in charge of how we choose to feel and to re act.

When we can finally learn to maintain a clear head, without clamouring thoughts, we can truly say that we have lived. In this state a life presents itself that is in the flow of synchronistic unfolding, without strain.

Lessons still show up that need to be learned, but we have the tools and the knowledge that we have help from the other side of the veil, and we know to listen to internal guidance to find solutions to find ease on our path.

Awakening and ART

Awakening to new 5th dimensional energies occurs when there is a shift in perception.

A raise in consciousness from lower energies that bind us to a lower vibration or samsara.

Awakening means that we completely remember who we are as a spiritual being.
For a while as you are breaking free from the OLD WAY, you will find yourself perpetually forgetting and in that state you will be completely oblivious to another level, or world of experience.

But it's okay, it isn't a race!

The problem is in the initial remembering, with your mind battling a new perception and saying


'This isn't real, this is delusional.'

The laugh comes when you finally break free, and you make out that you always new it anyway....which of course you did, before your memory was erased as you came up the birth canal.

Art is an amazing way to awaken.

Because this state is who we fully are, it can be reached when we completely let go of all 3d control. Put another way - when we conquer our ego, which is by no means easy.
One large problem is distinguishing your id / spirit from your ego. One right brain, one left.
Basically the chatty, noisy, know-it-all, bossy one, is the ego, and the very quiet one that always gets over ruled is the id.
I found that I was sent many lessons adhering to this, until I could ignore it no more. Lessons would follow the same pattern, where I heard something so quietly - almost inaudibly, then my loud voice trumpeted in and I went straight with it's view point.
Basically the lessons were set up that something always went horribly wrong so that I could replay the scenario in my head and remember the quiet voice.
By acknowledging my right brain in this way, the voice slowly became louder.

Luckily age also helps. Each spiritual year is 7 years. We are born very clear and aware and many of us have childhood friends or can see or sense spirit, but the world soon deadens us.
Through puberty the veil is at it's thickest because it is important that mankind populate the earth, but after this the veil becomes progressively thinner so it is far easier to hear.

It is also easier if you have less testosterone for you to hear, which is why women generally have a clearer link.


When you are in a blissed state, as in meditation, or when you lose yourself in art, your vibration raises, and you are able to be fully yourself, as you reach your higher self....the full self, your genius.

I always feel that the 3d energy - heavy, upset, angry, fearful, busy-minded, controlling, dominating is like only having half your head, and awareness.

Breaking free comes when you finally vow to yourself that you will never forget who you really are.  You have a team talk with yourself or put post it notes around your house reminding you to never forget. Unfortunately despite this you still forget frequently until you remember better, and so well in fact that you break free. For me the impetus was getting sick of repeating the same tiresome lessons.

The incredible thing that then transpires is that you realize that you have spent your whole life thus far, living only half a life, an illusion - with things totally upside down. You get cross with yourself for having gripped on to your stupidity for what seems like eons - and is in fact many, many life times.

You start to remember other lifetimes, the pre- life state. You start to communicate with spirit, your guides, friends and family the other side of the veil and to work with angels.

You shift your consciousness because you understand microcosm and macrocosm. You understand that universal consciousness is within us all, and we can access it by going within -
Through meditation, art or music.
In the quiet times or when we remove our minds from our heads.
Then in our right mind, day dreamy state we can finally HEAR and finally KNOW who we are and why we came here.

Because we remember, we awaken.

About 10% of the worlds population is currently awakening. That is such a good thing, as we need to pave the way for the Indigo, Crystal and Rainbow children who are far more evolved than us, and are somewhat exasperated at the state of the world.

Their clarity is mind blowing. Spirit communication is so obvious for them they assume that we are ALL doing it.

A New Way

One of the key things to accomplish in life is to work out who and what you ARE NOT, and what you don't want and are not willing to put up with.
Everything else that is left is where you start from.

I am that I am.

My higher self, Monad, helped by guides, a channel.
Who does speak? Who am I, and who are we?

Remembering that we are not just the body and mind that we see is huge, and I believe pivotal in all crisis of mental health.
Maybe it is the purpose of mental ill health - so that we begin the journey of searching for who we truly are.

First of all you read about it, then maybe accept it as a concept. You fight against it, forget it, until, after numerous situations of being at rock bottom, you suddenly see a chink of light and you remember that the realm of spirit is your home, and that you are merely here as a visitor.

Life as you knew it completely changes because you understand that your key purpose for being here is to learn. You weren't a mishap or born by mistake. You chose to come here, and you chose your parents.

I remember wrestling with my ego for ages. I just couldn't rationalise Archangels, and yet I'd seen one clearly in my bedroom one morning, sat beautifully on my windowsill.
The idea that I had lived other lifetimes also seemed crazy until I had a past life regression and then learned how to regress myself.

Clearing out all old energies, and cleansing the environment with crystals and smudging is very important.
Energy needs space to move and flow around your home.


My awareness of the energy that is in objects was a gradual one. I use to own my own shop - Christmas Cottage and along with my artwork I had the shop stacked with stock displayed in every available space.
Then I noticed something. If I had just done a display and laid everything out beautifully and stood back thinking how beautiful everything looked, stuff from this display would start to sell immediately.
I slowly came to realise that too much stuff meant that I couldn't energise it all properly, and so things wouldn't sell and there would be a stuck energy.

I then learned about crystals and smudging with Californian white sage. The crystals are important for gridding a space - one in each corner, so that your boundaries are protected. Both the smudge stick and crystals are important to cleanse the space of any negative or toxic energy from yourself or from anyone else. They keep the energy clear so that you can have a quieter mind and a higher energy.

When I need an area cleansing with a smudge stick I always hand it over to the archangels to cleanse the space in the highest possible Divine Light, as they will do a far better job than I.

Crystals need to be regularly put outside under the full moon. I lay mine out on the soil and let them get rained on a few nights before I bring them back in when they are pinging with energy.

Chanting helps reset the mental pathways. Perfect before meditation as it sandpapers the mind of all  thoughts.

I've always loved Aum mani padme hum or the Gayatri Mantra.
In 1999, when working on an art project with friend and composer Sarah Class, I played one track of her music on repeat for several months. At this time I had no idea about mantra and no understanding of spirit. Little did I know the effects of high vibration music on repeat.

The result was an ability to channel art. I had no more thoughts left. I just was - a vessel / tube for energy to flow through me onto a canvas. I was merely the observer.

You find your true self once you have stripped away the chatter. It is a band of energy.

What is this energy like?

It is so subtle and ebbs and slips away without you even being aware.
A vigilant practice is important - especially in the early days. I was painting for most of the day for fifteen years. I found it the only way that I could stay on top of the voices that I could hear form inside.

Having been a trained nurse and worked at St Pancras Hospital as part of my psychiatric nursing experience, I would say that I definitely am not mental, and yet I can hear voices - both good and bad.

How I understand it now is - I am a clear channel, and so I can hear helpful guidance. When I am not a clear channel - through drink or drugs or toxic living, I hear voices that are not pleasant and they come from inside me, but are not mine.
The last time that I had an imposter within, it gave me enough of a sensation as I observed it, that I could clearly realise that I was totally separate from it and that it had come in through my crown chakra.


Work towards positivity in everything as negativity and gossip are of a lower vibration and only serve to lead you further away from yourself.

Be filled with joy and love, because you can.

Breathe in light and anchor it into the earth.
Draw down the light through art, or meditation, music or contemplation.

Work with the light to heal the planet and the people, to raise consciousness . To en light en.
