How Do I Want to Be Right Now?
Angel Raphael through conscious channel Adria Estribou
This is Angel Raphael. So to jump right in here with Angel Update, mostly we want to tell you to be how you are. Be how you are. What does this mean? Many of you are still imprinted on how are others expecting me to be? And how did I even envision myself to be when I was starting out on my conscious journey? Very important to update.
You update many things—your software, your home, maybe the roof on your home. Many things you don't expect to be evergreen, live forever. But for your expectations of self, many of you are running on outmoded realities. So it's very important to come into "how do I want to be now, right now?" And come into that almost instant synchronization with that.
So not waiting around for permission or acceptance from others or for the universe to catch up. There's this feeling: "I have to be polite and wait my turn. It's okay to work hard. In fact, it's best if I do." We're not telling everyone to come into an extreme sense of: "I don't do anything, the world just brings it." And yet that would be closer to the truth, we would say, the truth of now.
So, yes, engage actively with the world, but ask yourself: "How do I want to be now? Do I love to work? Do I love to socialize? Do I love to make art? Do I love to rest? Do I love to play? How do I want to be?" Just declaring that. Noticing and declaring. Not to anyone in particular, you can certainly declare it to the angelic, to your highest sense of knowing, to your guidance team, to the universe or God, generally speaking. That's up to you who you want to declare it with. But you don't have to take out a newspaper ad or anything public, in the human view. But be strong. "This is how I want to be. I love it how I am when I'm on vacation. I get up and write for a few hours, and I go swim, and then I share with friends, and then I go volunteer at the soup kitchen..." Whatever is your most glamorous idea of life that's unfettered. It's time to come into that directly now. At the very least, to the acknowledgement in your heart space: "this is how I want to be. This is how I want daily life to be for me."
We're not talking so much about fame or recognition from the outside or intangible things, but the tangible sense of: "How am I right now in the world? How does the world meet me? What does it feel like to be alive? How do I want to be?" This is the question for this next month or less: "How do I want to be?" And just declaring it very forcefully: "Okay, this is what I want." Because if you are too polite and sit around and wait for "Well, I'll see if this is reasonable, or if it doesn't impinge on what anyone else wants, or if it's in flow with the universe . . ." You can trust if you're coming from a pure, good heart, if you declare, "this is how I want to be, I want this much of my life in service, this much in art, this much in play, this much in work..." Whatever is the balance for you, how you want to be, that if that is not in alignment with others, you can just add that to your wish "and universe let me know if I'm railroading something or being too strong." But we would suggest that for the most part, humankind is in the habit of being too weak, being told what to do and when and how.
And so now, in your glory, it's not just about the more outer signs of ascended masters. It's about daily life. "How do I want to be? How do I want to express? If I were living my best, absolute best life right now, what would it be?" Write that down for yourself, please. Or have it so clear in your heart space that the universe can't help but deliver that to you now.
This is not a time for waiting around. And it's not a time about being shy about "Oh, I should be patient. I should wish for a little less. I don't want to be greedy." Listen, if your wishes aren't about stealing from the impoverished or taking so that someone else has less, you're not being too greedy. Doesn't the universe have enough resources for you? If you were to look per capita, person by person, there's more than enough for everyone to have a mansion and a rich life. So why it is divided unequally in part is because what people believe is right that it be theirs. We're not saying that's true in every circumstance, but for you right now, that's true.
So what do you believe is right in your heart for you? How do you want to be? When you wake up and face the universe, the people in it, your guidance, your sense of knowing, your sense of greater light, how do you want to be? Write that down, please. Right now, this month, today is best. It's a very, very potent time for wishes. How do I want it to be? And expect that to come fast. And then it's up to you. The second decision point always comes when your gift comes around. "Oh, I asked for this. Do I still want it?" And it's fine to change your mind. But please don't say "No, I don't think I deserve this. Or no, it's best if I wait, because I'm used to waiting. Things should take a long time." When you wish for it and it comes in, you can trust it's coming from your light, no one else. So you can absolutely ask the angels to join with you in strengthening your belief, that you can have how you want to be now.
