Bashar:  How do you say, good day to you this day of your time, how are
you?

Q:  Great!

B:  Alright. First of all, once again we thank you very much for this
interaction, for this bridge, for this interface. For your willingness to
allow our world to experience an expansion of a perception of All That Is,
through these interactions with each and every single one of you. We thank
you. We would like to begin this exchange by saying, things change. We have
talked about the fourth law  -- Change is the only constant. Everything
changes, except the first three laws of course, but we won't go into that
right now. Things change. You have noticed more and more changes taking
place within yourselves, within your community, in your reality, as we have
discussed these past fifteen orbits. That there would be more acceleration
of change in certain directions and many of these you have begun to see.
     We would want to at this time express upon you that as you change so
does your experience. As you change your relationship with All That Is so
then does your experience of All That Is. Many people upon your planet have
and still are allowing themselves to lock into the idea of fear with regard
to changes, and expressing these ideas as catastrophe, upheaval, calamity.
However, many people are now also realizing that as you change so does the
way in which you experience transformation, and while you can still observe
that many places upon   your planet may be experiencing certain kinds of
stresses, certain kinds of upheaval, certain kinds of difficulties --  you
are, perhaps...some of you...beginning , just beginning to get an inkling
that some of the great, sweeping, world- transforming changes that have
been predicted for a long time  --  you are beginning to get an inkling
that either some of these may no longer happen in the way they were
originally predicted, or, may simply be more gradual than you first
thought.
     For as you smooth out your ability to change, as you get used to the
idea that change is your friend, as you are more willing to use change in a
positive, constructive way, as you are more willing to invite change
without fear then the changes that are reflected in your outer reality  can
also be, likewise, smoother, more gradual, more handable. As an example of
this, many of you will recall that one  of your strong, famous, seers,
visionaries, or what you may like to term, psychics  --  that individual
you knew as Edgar Cayce  -- many of you have read what you term his
prophecies, his predictions as he gave them from his sleep-like state, or
his trance-like state and many discussions have been had and many remarks
have been made upon his prophecies and predictions of, catastrophic change,
global  change, earthquakes, weather, pole-shifts...so forth. It is now
interesting, very interesting to note that there is a new book that has now
emerged about many of these prophecies from Edgar Cayce being discussed in
a new light by individuals who have gone back through the archives of his
predictions  --  examined them in more detail   --  and it is now beginning
to be discovered , or perhaps more precisely, it is  now beginning to be
discussed  that some of these prophecies and predictions actually said that
many of these changes that were first thought to be taking place in abrupt
and catastrophic ways could in fact actually be, gradual.
     It is interesting to note that it took more than fifty of your years
to somehow put this into print . That many of his predictions said that the
changes could be gradual, instead of catastrophic and instantaneous. But
this is of course nothing but a reflection of your willingness now to
believe that it is possible to experience the transformation going on in a
different way. And so of course now you get the reflection that says, "Oh
well, yes, he said this", even though you could have found that  out fifty
years ago. But it didn't get printed that way. Only the ideas of the
instantaneous catastrophes were printed. No discussion was had about the
gradualness that was possible but now, now, now those re-examinations are
beginning to understand that he did say, close to the end of his life that
many such things were possible to be experienced in a gradual way, over
long periods of time. Based on the changes taking place within the
consciousness of the world.
      This is, now that it is in print, a good sign that you yourselves
have changed.  That you yourselves are more ready and more willing to
accept responsibility, relationship with All That Is, in such a manner as
to know that reality happens through you not to you. And your eyes are
opening wider and you are once again reclaiming your childhood, your
children, inside your energy, playful, imaginative energy - to know that
the world is what you make of it , reality is what you make of it , based
on how you value yourself. And, based on your willingness to accept All
That Is in all its forms and in so doing, to then have more of a co-
creatorship with the form that it then will take from that point forward.
     And so, in noting this, we extend to each of you our congratulations
--  and to all those in your world, our congratulations, for being willing
to begin to accept more of yourself. For being willing to begin to love
more of yourself. For being willing to be more of yourself. For this, as we
have always said, makes all the difference in your world. And so we thank
you.
     We may, if you now so desire, begin with sharing. What is it your
imagination would like to discuss this day?
