In October, 1995, the Ascended Master Saint Germain gave a dictation through the Messenger Elizabeth Clare Prophet entitled, We Must Have Change, How Shall It Be Done? Even though twenty-six years have passed, his advice and direction could not be more timely or more relevant, especially to those who are students of the Ascended Masters anywhere in the world, yet most importantly, to those in the United States of America in 2021:
"Yes, beloved, unconscious, subconscious life at all levels is feeling the change. And there is a patine, an overlay of fear and anxiety throughout the planet. I want to see to it that my Keepers of the Flame have no conscious or unconscious anxiety. Remember the chapter in Intermediate Studies in Alchemy, “Anxiety and the Anxiety Syndrome.”<1> It is a syndrome. And if you allow yourself to enter into areas of anxiety (and these may be triggered by an even greater unconscious fear) and out of fear you go into a frenzy and then a fanaticism, then soon you are leaning heavily toward the left or heavily toward the right. Is this not so, beloved? Have we not seen it?
Well, beloved, you must look in yourselves. The messenger has given a lecture on imperil.<2> Imperil is anxiety to the extreme. When people carry that, they are not productive. They cannot bring forth fruit from the tree of life. Their anxiety continually hinders them from transcending the self. When they are caught in this extreme fanaticism that becomes radicalism that becomes a hatred so powerful that they are willing to kill human life to make their point, such as you have seen in Oklahoma and now in Arizona<3>—understand this, beloved, when you see this, it is almost as if that lifestream is so caught and so caught up in the extremist view that they cannot return to the heart of the Holy Christ Self."
Anyone who has ever been on the receiving end of fear-inducing emails sent out by well-meaning friends, neighbors and community and church leaders can appreciate Saint Germain's admonishment and plea to his students. Hopefully, those who are burdened by chronic anxiety might consider getting counseling for it, because it is a very common disorder, which can really take you and your family and friends---even an entire community or population---so far off track, you forget who you are and what you are here for.
We have all been warned about "those well-meaning individuals who do not tidy up their own conscious, subconscious and unconscious domains and therefore do not realize that they are unknowingly leaking the imperil of their irritability into subterranean pockets that are filled with darkness rather than light." We may even be one of them at various times in our lives, but, there comes a time and a day of reckoning when we are on a spiritual path, to recognize that we have a responsibility to clean up our acts and stop contributing to world angst.
While it is best to follow the advice of professionals regarding diagnosis and treatment for chronic anxiety and anxiety disorders, it is also helpful to know that there are natural remedies, such as essential oils, to help alleviate daily stress and, perhaps, nip anxiety in the bud. One such remedy was shared by a psychologist, the late Dr. Marilyn C, Barrick during The Guru-Chela Relationship Darshan, where she stated that "roses are an antidote to imperil," when sharing part of her own story of life on the spiritual path.
Most importantly, we have the opporunity to use the violet flame for the transmutation of fear and anxiety and to learn about and say the prayer that Jesus gave us for the binding of the "Dweller on the Threshold" of all the substance of our lower self that is dragging us down and out and off the spiritual path and putting us in karma-making situations where we burden others, including elemental life, with our unresolved fears and anxieties.
We have plenty of options to help ourselves, our friends and loved ones and our country and planet overcome what seems to be an epidemic of anxiety--these are just a few that some may find helpful.
For more information about imperil, there is a CD available with teachings from the Ascendedd Masters and the Messenger Elizabeth Clare Prophet, "Imperil A Commanding Danger!"
