"In days past, your explorations into the above two topics
have usually seemed quite separate in their nature and essence. In
other words, a person is either inquiring into "Spirit" or he is
exploring "Sex." Bringing the two together, within the prevailing
political climate, has either felt quite risky, or it has tended
to be interminably dull."
 For
those of you who haven't encountered
verbal channeling
before, my process involves a translation of energetic
tones, coming onto the
planet from beyond this current physical reality, and down-stepping
them into words and phrases that can be easily absorbed and
understood by those who are in a process of spiritual awakening. I
do the work now, so that others can witness the process, and be
encouraged to utilize it themselves, in whatever way seems
appropriate and comfortable.
From previous
transmissions, the Guides went on to recall these words for us:
"Granted, there has always been strong religious emphases
placed upon the holiness and beauty of sex in marriage, and the
blessing that comes with a house that is filled with children. But
the rest of the energy, sourced within your sexual nature (the
sensorial and erotic aspects) has oft been relegated either to the
subconscious, or to houses of "ill repute" - presided over by
those who are openly reviled by members of "decent society" in the
light of day - yet earnestly sought after when sunlight fades into
a twilight of secret desire.What people are saying
they've been doing, sexually, does not always match what they are
doing. And even when it does, there is often a divergence between
what folks are experiencing and what they long to be experiencing.
The evidence for this is everywhere - in your television, movies,
print media, and even in lively conversations at the office or
factory. You are fixated.... OBSEX-ED (if you will), and many of
you do not even realize it, or acknowledge it. Therefore, nature
must sometimes take up that task, bringing forth rumblings from
the Earth that correspond to dark rumblings going on inside many
of you."
Humankind now stands at a crossroads. We can either look inside
ourselves, honestly - taking a healthy inventory at what is actually
there - or we can continue to project our "demons" outside
ourselves, to be picked up by forces of nature or the innocent minds
and hearts of our awakening children. Many young people have come to
Earth at this time
to be
mirrors for humanity, and teachers of a New Paradigm¹ that is
unfolding all around us.
As Indigo Healer Jason Andrews puts it:
"Star Kids or Indigos are here to teach, not to save. I am not
here to change the course of your history but purely to help, and
only if that help is asked for. The Star Kids are a reality. Get
used to it. Yet you still judge them by your standards. You don't
understand yet that just because some of them are extremely young
- like three or four of your years - and have no schooling and
can't read or write, they can still teach you. They are not coming
from the standpoint of a mere child. They are much more."
The willingness of young people to explore Spirituality and
Sexuality with great passion and fervor, was made quite apparent in
the 1960s, beginning with a "Free Love" Movement, that was followed
by a "Saturday Night Fever" in the 1970s (Studio 54 and the Disco
Craze), which was suppressed again by a conservative backlash in the
1980s. That era also signaled a time of great remembrance, when
various individuals began to recall buried memories of childhood
abuse, especially sexual abuse, and initiated self-help groups to
deal with the feelings that arose from those memories.
The gathering momentum of the
A.I.D.S. Epidemic
suddenly put a whole new face on human sexuality at this time in
history. Whereas our former experience with
STD's (Sexually
Transmitted Diseases) involved discomfort and inconvenience, but
little more, the arrival of A.I.D.S. introduced the concept that
indiscriminate or careless sexual union could actually kill a
person. That was a shock for humanity, indeed! Many there were who
tried to download the subject with religious bias and moral
manipulation (claiming that A.I.D.S. was a punishment from God, a
penalty incurred for indulging in promiscuous and/or homosexual
activity). Of course, this argument quickly fell apart when women
and newborn children began dying from the disease as well.
To
be sure, Sex is freeing. But it is not free. As we will see, later
in this series, there are forms of sexuality which are intended to
open a person up, and there are forms of expression that are meant
to bind souls together, so that certain alchemical changes can be
accomplished. The idea that wearing a little piece of latex during
intercourse can protect a person from the intensity and far-reaching
implications of sexual union is as absurd as the belief that
abstinence is the best cure for dealing with the unfoldment of
adolescent urges.
We'll speak more about all this in due time. An unbiased
spiritual perspective, which is not bogged down in
masculine-dominant
religious or social agenda, can give incredible insight to the study
of Venereal Disease and its effects on the future of humankind. For
now, though, it seems fitting to explore in more depth the topic of
Childhood Sexuality, since it is very much in the news today.
Children and Sexuality
Earlier in these writings, the Reconnections began commenting on the
innate sexual nature of children, including infants and
pre-adolescents. This brought up a huge reaction from many readers
who wrote in to condemn the pandemic of molestation of children by
adults - most recently brought to the public eye by charges brought
against people such as Michael Jackson. The original tones of the
Reconnections message, which caused the reaction, involved
statements such as this:
"The appearance of a 'Child Icon,' within a physical
Game Format, signifies
a return of INNOCENCE for whatever Game is already in motion.
Innocence (as a symbol) signifies an attempt by one or more
participants to build an atmosphere of openness with each other,
and the rest of life. It is not always synonymous with naivety,
however. Innocence, as we apply the word here, speaks more to the
idea of living life in an unforced, natural, and unfeigned way."
They went on to speak about the innately "sexual nature" of an
infant's first relationship interactions with parents and siblings.
When they use the term "sex", the Reconnections speak in the most
basic way, referring to the dance between masculine energy (active,
initiative, mental) and feminine energy
(passive/responsive/emotional). In other words, they are speaking
about the "give and take" that is inherent in all life. As we said
in article one of this series, Sexuality is far more than just a
physical act. Therefore, people can be (and often are) sexual with
each other and never once remove an article of clothing or ponder
the idea of putting tab "a" into slot "b" at all.
The Guides' discussions continued:
"You will notice that we place a lot of emphasis on children
as we are creating the link between spirituality and sexuality.
That is because children do "sex" better than anybody! They are a
product of sex, one of its major purposes! Children are always
toggling between the two poles of "action and passivity." They are
always ready to receive, but they frequently enjoy giving as well.
When they give, it is usually because they want to, not because it
is expected of them.
Perhaps the answer to the age-old debate on Child Sexuality is
found in the meaning that sex carries at each stage of life. We
have pointed out that a child's first sexual experience is formed
and fashioned in the dance of energies between himself and his
family. Even his relationship to siblings plays a part in that.
When infancy turns to childhood, each child's focus of sexual
exploration shifts right along with it. Usually, by the time each
stage of growth is completed, a child has discovered genitals and
other interesting body parts, and has learned the joys of
self-exploration and stimulation.
Because some parents hold fast to the idea that their
little cherubs are sexless, siblings are often bathed together and
allowed to sleep in the same space. Self-stimulation can expand to
experiences of mutual exploration and masturbation, bringing a
whole new spectrum of awareness to the fore. This awareness
doesn't just play itself out with touching or caressing. It also
affects issues involving sibling rivalry, personality variance,
and the sharing of toys.
The very heart of our conversation here is focused on
inviting adults to be more like children in their experience of
sexuality, rather than enlisting children to be more like adults."
 With
the inclusion of the last sentence, one might expect to be able to
diffuse any implication that the Guides are encouraging adults to
sexually initiate or molest young children, but that did not turn
out to be the case. It seems that this topic is so hot right now
that the mere mention of children and sexuality is enough to send
some people into orbit - in many cases, to bring forward a full-on
abreaction² of their own childhood sexual traumas. This resulted in
some powerful e-mails, some of which hammered me personally, because
I consented to give voice to these offensive ideas.
In Part 3 of the Series [coming next month] the Guides addressed
this issue further. After all, we never know what's needed to
adequately cover a subject until we get into it, do we? They shared:
"If any of you are feeling disturbed about the connection we
are building, between children and sex, it is probably because
humanity has placed a corona of honor around that time in your
lives when things were simple, and everything was about laughter,
play, and sweet innocence. Some of you may feel that those times
were all too short in duration (so do we!), or worse, they never
really came around for you at all.
Our purpose for offering this series of transmissions is
not to encourage adults to have sex with children. Rather,
we are suggesting that you return to the beauty of having sex AS
children... and see where that takes you. It is possible,
you know, regardless of age. Being an adult seems very much the
art of putting on masks and facades, convincing yourself and
society that you are: (a) worthy of their trust, and (b) able to
live among them in a thoughtful and responsible way. All the
while, you are still grappling with the same fears, dreams, and
repressed desires - left over from when you stood, steadying
yourself at your father's knee."
It was just the other day that the Reconnections came through to add
yet another key insight to the picture. This return to child-like
sensitivity, this renewal of love for our own bodies (just as they
are) restores our sense of awe and curiosity about what things feel
like, taste like, smell like, etc. This attitude helps many adults
get beyond their guilt and shame issues, and break free from
self-made prisons of doubt and loneliness.
With our continued expansion into the Aquarian Age, we understand
that the art of lovemaking is ALL about children. Either we use our
sexual powers to create them, physically, or we learn to BECOME a
child again, nestled safely in a lover's arms. The over-emphasis on
sexual ACTS and moral restraints must surely diminish, as personal
authenticity and love increases. It is impossible to fall into "sin"
(or obsession about same) when one comes from a place of genuine
love. Love is the antidote for sin and suffering.
As always, I am very interested in hearing your views on these
subjects. I may not be able to respond to everyone, in detail--but I
read every concept, and they do help us greatly in our research, as
this fascinating topic continues to unfold.
Next segment, we'll be talking about the The Reconnections'
perspective on how to release the emotional scarring that many
people continue to carry about sex, long after chronological
childhood is over. Until then, have a great month!
¹New Paradigm: A worldwide
infusion of energy essence which grows out two primary concepts:
Universal Oneness
and
Multidimensionality. It is a movement from the Piscean Age
(where we became fishers of men) to the Aquarian Age, which
emphasizes freeing up of that which has been contained or held
captive (i.e. by rules, laws, or traditions). It is the advent of
true FREEDOM and the
Age of Conscious
Choice.
²Abreaction: A sensory review (a
reliving) of past experience, causing a spontaneous release of
pent-up emotion.
