The Sunlit Zone
To help us understand the current collective energies, I was shown an
image in my mind's eye. Pictures tell a thousand words as they say so I
searched online until I found the closest match:
From this space, we can smile at someone who looks different, or dresses
differently, or has different lifestyle choices, instead of hurling
abuse. We can switch off from news that 'feels' like blatant
disinformation or fear-mongering. We can do as much good as we can, in
any way we can, when we can.
Think from the Sunlit Zone. Act from the Sunlit Zone. Visualise from the Sunlit Zone.
Onward!
Love Dana

I found the above pic and thought bingo! Not only is it a visual match,
but the words and meaning are perfect. This image shows the five zones
of ocean water, depicting the different layers according to how much
sunlight each layer receives. The top layer is the Sunlit Zone which
gets the most sunlight. The Twilight Zone gets very little sunlight,
while the Dark Zone at the bottom of the ocean receives no sunlight
although there is some light from the creatures that swim there - and many surprisingly do!.
The Abyss is the very bottom - no light, and a lot of water pressure.
The Trenches refer to the cracks in the Earth's crust - trenches and
canyons. Despite the total lack of light, life including starfish can be
found there.
This very basic description of the different layers of the ocean, feels
to most adequately describe the strong, contrasting energetic layers
playing out globally and personally right now. Just as all of these
layers exist in the ocean, so too they exist on the world stage, and
within us. They exist as non-visible, non-physical vibrational waves
around us. They exist on the levels of our thoughts and emotions.
In each moment, we choose which layer of the waves to swim in. We make
our choice via every thought we think. We make our choice via the daily
decisions we make: the relationships we engage in, the news sources we
reach and watch, the activities we participate in, the foods we eat, the
work we do, the environment we spend our time in and so on.
Just as we choose which layer of the waves to spend most of our time in,
that wave layer influences us the more time we spend there. This is
common logic: Spend time with happy people, you're going to feel happy.
Spend time with fearful people you're going to feel more fearful. If
your current overall vibration is a match to that frequency layer, then
that layer will heighten, intensify and expand whatever emotional
story/belief/vibration you are holding. If your overall vibration isn't
in alignment with a particular frequency layer, you will find it very
hard to be in that particular layer and will swim like a fish up or down
to some other layer where you feel more comfortable.
Right now, all these layers within us, and on the collective stage, are
being lit up like a Christmas tree. Every layer is wanting our
attention, and has an almost magnetic pull, drawing 'like' energies
toward it. Down in the Dark Zone and the Abyss, fear is triggering
fear, violence is triggering violence, and ancient wounds are triggering
ancient wounds. In those zones it feels like the end of the world is
here swirling around in a whirlpool of chaos, control and madness.
On the other end of the spectrum, up in the Sunlit zone, there is a
feeling of something new emerging. There is a deeper richness and more
emotional connection in relationships - be they family, friends,
partners, colleagues or people you barely know or don't even know. There
is a deeper sense of connection with your own self. At the same time
that there is a lot of density playing out on the world stage, there is
simultaneously an increased feeling of lightness and consciousness being
experienced all over the world that is undeniable.
The majority of people feel to be in the Twilight Zone most of the time.
We divide our time between feeling good and feeling bad. We have hope
then we sink into fear. We strive for the light, then get pulled down
into the murky depths by some inner doubt or external event.
It seems that the darker and denser the layer, the more power it
seemingly has to determine the collective focus and conversation. Yet,
we can't possibly have come here to get sucked into that vortex. Nor
have we come here to live in the yo-yo roller-coaster of the Twilight
Zone. For life to continue and not just continue but to evolve and
thrive, we need to lift our game and swim on up to the Sunlit Zone. This
isn't an indulgence to feel guilty about when so many are suffering. It
is our sacred duty and responsibility to live in the Sunlit Zone
whenever possible.
Now, I am the first to say that I love scuba-diving into the Abyss to
collect energetic information. Just like the Ocean, there is value to be
found there. Our shadow, and all that we have swept under the carpets,
is in these bottom layers. There is so much strength and healing gained
from exploring these layers, yet it naturally brings up our fears. The
chaos we are seeing globally is in part our collective shadow being
revealed.
A scuba diver gets their deep water gear on, explores a canyon, then
heads up to the surface. The archeological excavations you encounter on
deep sea dives are profound, but - for humanity anyway - it is not a
place to live or swim in for too long. It is unsustainable. Just as
plants grow toward the light, so too humanity's growth is geared to
heading toward the light. As much as many fear we are heading into a
dark future, it is not possible at this stage of our evolution. We are
seeing the darkness and violence clearer because of our light. We are
experiencing our feelings more intensely, because of the light. We are
experiencing uncomfortable emotional responses to the discord because of
our light. The 'darkness' is thick like tar, and loud, and so it feels
like it is the majority energy on the planet. However, it is not. The
light that exists on this planet, and within us all, is now the
predominant energy and it will prevail. In the meantime it will also
continue to expose and reveal all that lies in the bottom shadow layers,
and thus continue to challenge us with how confronting that looks and
feels.
If we have one fault, it is our tendency to so easily get sucked down
into the bottom layers and live from those spaces as if they are our
'real' and ruling reality. This not only does not serve us, but we do
not serve those layers by living down there. I am not advocating to
stick our heads in the sand. If anything, being in the Twilight Zone and
Dark Zone of focusing so much on the 'darkness' and the 'fear'
(consciously speaking, not referring to our beautiful ocean), is akin to
sticking our heads in the sand. We cannot see clearly from those layers
where fear, doubt, worry, violence, chaos and control rule the roost.
From the Sunlit Zone we can see and listen clearly, we can act ethically
and powerfully.
Think from the Sunlit Zone. Act from the Sunlit Zone. Visualise from the Sunlit Zone.
Onward!
Love Dana
