We were asked,"When do you know to take action versus when to just do nothing and allow?"We would like to address this today.

My dear friends, we love you so very much,

Shelley's note：I have heard from so many of you who seem to be in the in-between phase where you are feeling done with where you have been but don't quite know where you are going. It is common to experience the pregnant pause when you have completed one timeline and haven't yet shifted onto a new one yet. You have gone through these phases before and they do come to an end, just like you eventually land at your destination even if it has felt like a particularly long flight. If there's one thing we can be sure of, it is that our expansion is a constant. Message 189 from my book, Healing Balm for the Enlightening Soul addresses the pregnant pause, so I thought I would share it as today's daily message.

Dear Ones, if you understand gratitude is sending love to the universe, and that love is the greatest expander and magnifier of all, you can see why gratitude is a powerful manifestation tool.

親愛的大師們，一切造物都是由最高造物主的心之核心延伸出來的。你越被吸引到創造的核心，你就擁有越多神的力量和光芒。當你作為一個閃亮的"光之存有"在更高自我覺知的道路上成長時，你將會體現出更多的"神聖之愛"，喜悅和安詳的舉止也會隨著強烈服務於他人的願望一起呈現出來。

There is a tendency in human beings to make declarations that they will never do something again if they have tried something and it hasn't worked out. You do this in your desire to take back control in an area where you are feeling powerless. What you may not realize is such declarations can be detrimental to you.

Gratitude is sending a love letter to the universe.

We have spoken extensively about the fact that you are completing the first phase of your incarnation and stepping forward into a brand new phase. You are wrapping things up much like you would do a life review at the end of a lifetime. For many of you what you have lived through and have been working on healing and releasing will start to feel very far removed, much like a pastlife.

As you continue your enlightenment journey, you understand that it is all about growth and expansion. It is because you have become aware of the importance of that expansion you will become more aware of freedom and how essential it is for all beings.

As you continue along your healing journey, many old patterns and habits will be up for review and for change. What often accompanies this is a need for the readjustment of boundaries.

Dear Ones, you are ever shifting beings of flow. What that means is that your needs are ever changing. There may be times of release, or times of integration. There will be times of giving, and times of receiving. Times of connection and times of solitude. Times of activity and times of rest. Times of being love and times of being loved.

The more self aware and self loving you become, the more you allow yourself to move with what the flow is supporting on any given day. That may not seem like much to you but it is a profound shift, for not only does it create more freedom and assistance in your life, it also allows you to be far more efficient in all you do.

The more you can embrace being you – beautifully, unapologetically, authentically you – the more you honour your service contract to the world.

If you would consciously choose to find something to appreciate in every person or situation you come across, you would shift from the wariness you have been conditioned to approach life from that perpetuates resistance and separation, to a positive focus that nurtures acceptance and inclusion. If you understand that your focus is your blessing of continuation, you can see how this approach has the ability to create a profound shift in your life.

Do you find yourself secretly wishing to be rescued in some way?  The desire to be rescued from yourself is letting you know two things. First, that is an area of your life that is inviting you to step into your authentic power. It is also a cry from your inner child for healing, safety, reassurance, and guidance from you in that area. (The desire to be rescued in some way is what makes people seek authoritarian leaders. Authoritarian leaders know this, so they will often feed fear or people's illusion of powerlessness in order to maintain their position. As people shift into being willing to embrace their own authentic power, you will see your world leaders change as a reflection of this change in consciousness.)

There is incredible power in declaring,"Today I choose a different way"if you become aware you are replaying an old pattern. It does not matter if you do not know what the new way is, it is your choice to try something new that will open up new avenues. It is never too late to change even the oldest habits, Dear Ones, in fact, that is exactly what leads to your healing, expansion, and wonderful new discoveries.

If you wish to manifest something in your life, what is the essence of what it will offer you? For example, if you would like to manifest money, why?  The real reason for the money might be to experience more freedom, ease, or fun.

What if you replaced the old, very common vow,"I will never trust again"with a new declaration like"I trust wisely and with discernment"? The replacement would feel much more comfortable to you because it aligns with what you truly wish to create, which is not separation but rather safe connection.

The energies are continuing to bring up opportunities to examine and release old relationship habits and patterns that are not supportive or empowering. If this happens, take a moment and ask,"How can I shift this relationship into a new place of balance that better serves everyone involved?"Then imagine a beautiful, healing blanket of love enveloping you all. Transformation is possible, in fact, it is supported in these energies.

If there is a problem, there is also a solution. If there is a dream, it or an even better outcome, can become a reality. This is so because the universe contains all that is. If you cannot find your way to the end result you wish to experience, it doesn't mean it doesn't exist, it simply means you don't know the steps to get there from where  you are.
