Volume One
Chapter Eight — The Gift of Wisdom

April: Awareness

1. Awareness is knowledge of all things, seen and unseen. It is the ability to sense the underbelly, to smell content that your senses are not alerting you to. Awareness is commonly known as the sixth sense. When yours has developed enough that you have become aware of it, you can thank your soul. Awareness from a mature soul is awareness from God. It will notify, alert, suggest, remind, and guide you towards or away from events, characters, or situations that may be helpful, or should be avoided at all cost. The resistance to God or love is very strong here and is potentially dangerous. Awareness always leads to the sixth sense of knowing and being able to discern between what is love and what isn't. Oftentimes the five senses fail to do this.

2. The resistance to love is volatile. Awareness helps characters to navigate the often-choppy waters of living on the planet earth as a human. If love is not flowing in an individual or community the results are combustible. Steering clear of these situations helps souls to focus the character on opening up to love, without buying into the fear narrative in the collective. Souls do not need to be protected from anything, but characters do need to be protected from outside influences. The body itself is a huge investment for a soul. Awareness is a gift that guarantees that the investment will remain as a container for soul growth and not get shut down by the world's negativity.

3. Guidelines:
Readers should delve directly into the "Gift of Wisdom" after completing all of the "Steps to Authenticity." Simply find the appropriate starting date on the calendar and begin there. Each month of affirmations centers around the theme and each theme is an aspect of wisdom. At the conclusion of this second year, the gift of wisdom will be yours. These exercises will facilitate soul growth by quieting the mind and retraining it to be in service to the soul and not strictly to the ego. Godspeed to all those who tread these waters to refine their authentic selves into shimmering gems.
