Suzan Carroll’s current channeled message (Channelings), is excellent information about our energies & ascension.

Several notable excerpts were:

*********** “Fortunately, Gaia, as well as a great many other humans, cetaceans, animals and plants, is also expanding Her consciousness. Even the mineral kingdom is raising its consciousness. Due to this vibrational shift of the planet, you all have the opportunity to "ascend" into the higher dimensions without "dying." ***********

“Once you have completed your process of integration, remember to daily recalibrate. Just as a musician must tune the instrument before playing it, it is important that you tune your instrument, your earth vessel, before you begin your day.”

“We recommend that you then ground these high frequencies in Gaia so that they can be accessed and used without harm to your physical vessel. Until you have completely merged with Gaia, do not attempt to open the messages that come in on these higher dimensional frequencies. Your earth vessel is accustomed to functioning at a very low vibration. Hence, you will have to retrofit it before you call upon it to make such a huge leap in resonance.” *

“Realize that any yearnings you have for Home are beacons of light that your energy can track to return Home in your consciousness. You "Home-sickness" is not your enemy.” **

Namaste

* In asking for energy downloads we can ask HS for those such are safe for our physical & nonphysical body. This is particularly important to allow our physical body to metabolize toxins & unfriendly organisms it must discard. This can minimize physical ascension symptoms considerably. If these are pronounced internal cleanses can be of tremendous assistance.

** This is the first explanation of this energetic mechanism I recall reading.
