Choose Joy, Hope, Love, and Peace

The Archangels Explain Why This is So Important

I was saddened the other day after reading a comment on an article written by another author on Medium who had shared a message from the Archangels that was supportive and hopeful and meant to be comforting.  Most people received it that way, but when I opened a comment made by one man, I was instantly hit with a barrage of anger, fear, and resentment, and what he had to say made me so sad, I can’t get it out of my mind.

He said he was sick and tired of channels and psychics delivering messages of hope, telling him things were going to get better, when things were getting worse every day.  He was so angry and felt so frustrated and hopeless.  It wasn’t my article, but I responded to his comment and agreed that things looked pretty bleak at times, but there was a reason why so many of us are getting the same messages, that I believed things would eventually get better, and the best thing we can all do to facilitate that was to work on ourselves, bringing more joy, hope, love, and peace into our lives, because in doing so, we had a positive effect on other people and the situation.  It’s an energetic thing.

I asked the Archangels to expand on this idea, and their response follows.

Question:  For the past year, you’ve included in just about all of your messages the importance of the Big 4 – joy, hope, love, and peace – and making this the center of your life and the basis for all decisions.  People are tired.  We see so many negative things happening in the world.  Can you please explain in more detail why the Big 4 is so important, and how it can improve the chaos around us?

Answer:

We know you are tired and at times shocked, fearful, angry, and unsure of the future.  There are many things happening to account for these feelings, but we do not want you to get stuck there.  When you feel the fear and anger closing in, remember what we have been telling you for quite some time.  Let us review.

First of all, we have been saying that things are going to get more difficult before they get better.  You are in a transition period on Earth.  The energy has transitioned to a higher frequency, and the people are absorbing it and adjusting to it.  You are all affected by it in various ways.  Most of you have been prompted to remember past trauma, so that you may work on healing from it.  The energy and your Guides support this, but it is still difficult to remember hardships and struggles from the past and reexperience the emotions attached to it, so that you may set them aside and leave them in the past, where they belong, so that you may heal. 

In addition, most of you are bothered by the injustice in the world more than ever before, and this can also be very disconcerting, especially when you do not believe you can do anything to change it or make it better, not just for you, but for others.  In the past, you might have noticed when terrible or unfair things happened, but you were able to dismiss it fairly quickly, again thinking there was nothing you could do to improve things.  Now, it is not so easy to dismiss the travesty and tyranny of what is going on around you, even if it does not affect you directly.  In truth, as you feel more connected with other people, which is another symptom of the higher frequency of energy around you now, you are affected whenever you see others suffering.  This is going to bother you more and more.

The reason we recommend that you focus on joy, hope, love, and peace so much is twofold.  First, when you make an effort to bring more of these things into your life, you are better able to navigate through the chaos, and although it still affects you, it does not defeat you when you counterbalance it with the Big 4.  So, it helps you on a personal level.

Second, when your energetic frequency rises, it has a positive effect on others around you, as well as situations around you.  This is a difficult concept to explain, because most of you have very limited experience with the energy that is part of you, that you can generate, raise, and actually direct once you learn how to do so.  Everything has energy, from the physical, such as people, places, and things like crystals, plants, and actions, to the more abstract, including feelings, thoughts, ideas, prayers, and words. 

Energy is fluid, and it fluctuates.  When you learn to increase the frequency, which is what happens when you bring more of the Big 4 into your life, it in turn can help raise the frequency of other people, places, and things.  Energy interacts with other energy, and while it is attracted more to like energy, it can also affect energy of different frequencies, including helping to raise lower vibrational energy.  On the other side, lower vibrational energy can negatively affect higher vibrational energy if you allow it to do so, such as when you join in with the anger, fear, and resentment that often surrounds you.

When you turn your back on the hatred and fear in the world and make a choice to bring more joy, hope, love, and peace into your life instead, you generate high frequency energy that can have a positive effect on you and everything around you.  This requires intent and effort, especially considering everything the media reports and all the negativity that is designed to keep you feeling defeated and insignificant, not to mention separated from others.  When you reject the notions that other people are your enemies and there is nothing you can do to make a positive difference in the world, the people who are working against you cannot take your power, and their power weakens.  If you want to have a positive effect on your life and the world around you, it is essential that you stop giving away your power by buying into what they are telling you.

We knew this would be a difficult year for you on Earth, which is why we begin to talk about the Big 4 and centering your life around it.  We cannot emphasize enough how important this is for you and the world.  You must focus on raising your own frequency and concentrating on your power and stop giving it away by embracing the fear, anger, and separation that is being pushed upon you.  By returning fear, anger, blame, accusation, resentment, judgment, condemnation, persecution and the like on others who are practicing and indulging in these things, you strengthen their position, even if you vehemently disagree with what they advocate.  You may not join forces with them, but you are joining energy with them.  They gain power, and you lose it. 

You cannot imagine what a difference it makes to quietly create your own haven that is free of the vitriol and intense negativity that surrounds you.  You can accomplish more than you think by simply refusing to participate in it.  This means making an active choice to release those negative feelings and embrace the Big 4.  You cannot be at peace if you are angry and hateful.  Choose to release and replenish yourself instead.  If you do this, unity will evolve along with you, and when the opportunities to peacefully unite against those in power begin to present themselves, you can set aside the differences you have with other people and focus instead on the commonalities you share, so you can advocate for change. 

This is exactly what those in power are working against.  They know that if the masses unite, they will no longer be able to maintain their power and influence, so they work diligently against it, creating situations that cause separation and anxiety.  You must disregard the things they continue to incite and instead focus on yourself and finding enough of the Big 4 that you can pursue building unity with those around you when the time comes.  When you have joy, hope, love, and peace at the center of your life, you can open the door to exploring options with other people, even when their ideas differ from yours.  The Big 4 leads to acceptance of others, even when you cannot agree with them.  You become confident in your own beliefs and do not feel the need to defend them or argue with others who disagree.  This leads to more harmony.

You must work on breaking the control that has reigned over people for so long on Earth.  You do this by refusing to accept and believe everything you are told and thinking for yourself from a place of peace and love, rather than from fear and anger.  This is why we advocate for building your life around the Big 4 and refusing to allow the control and manipulation of the past to guide you as you move forward.  Improving your own life in this way will also improve other things, and change and unity will follow.

Final Thoughts

It’s not always easy to choose hope over fear and compassion over anger, especially when you see what’s going on all over the world, but I don’t like how fear and anger feel, so I don’t want to indulge in them, and indulging is exactly what we do when we get swept away by the news and current events.  It’s hard to grasp that centering our lives in the Big 4 can have such a powerful effect on the future, but it’s easy to see that joining in with the fear, anger, blame, accusation, etc. isn’t helping anything.  Time to try something new.

If you’re interested and available at any time today, from wherever you are, you’re invited to join the Archangels for Friday meditation.  The intent for December is Renewal.  I think we can all use a little renewal, don’t you?  Just call on the Angels, and they’ll join your energy with ours and theirs and distribute it to where it’s most needed. 

Also, if you need a little guidance on how to reevaluate your life and center it based on the Big 4, you can go to my website, www.asktheangels222.com and find a guide sheet under free resources to help you do that. 

I hope you have a wonderful weekend and relax a bit after a busy holiday season.  Spend some time in reflection, why don’t you, and figure out what’s working and not working in your life, so you can consider making some changes.  Doing so won’t just help yourself, it has the capacity to help the world around you, as well.

Many blessings, all.
