Spiritual Reflections
Happiness Is Where the Heart Is...Or Is It?
On a scale of one to ten, how happy are you? It actually
might not be a question you have asked yourself lately and, in my work, I see a
lot of people trudging through life, finding some kind of acceptance but never
truly happy.
In his book, “The Essence of Happiness: A Guidebook for
Living” (2000), the Dalai Lama says, “I believe that the very purpose of
our life is to seek happiness.”
Ok, let’s think about that for a while. How do we seek
happiness. Is that something that we purposefully do, or something we start to
look for if we find ourselves unhappy? Also, if we are happy in most aspects of
our life, yet drastically unhappy in a relationship, work, in a family situation or whatever else it may
be, does that mean we are happy overall or basically unhappy?
So, there could be many definitions of happiness, shown
through laughter, smiles, feelings and demonstrations. But how can a person
find happiness if they are in a situation that makes them unhappy in some way?
Is it possible to be happy, even when life is hard?
That’s a lot of questions, I know, but I have considered
whether I am happy with my life and within myself and I am happy say that I am!
Going deeper into why I am happy, despite the odd stressful situation, my list
of reasons would include:
· I feel loved and valued by my
husband and children,
· I feel loved by my family and
friends,
· I love where I live,
· I love my work,
· I believe in myself (most of
the time)
· I am grateful for what I have
and the experiences that have led me to be the person that I am.
· I feel connected and supported.
· I feel lucky.
It’s a pretty good list. Does it mean that I am sparkly and
bright all the time or that things don’t get me down? Absolutely not. Would it
be harder without the love and support of my family and friends? 100% yes it
would. So, perhaps it is my purpose in life to be happy, because it would be a
whole lot harder if I wasn’t!
The Dalai Lama
finishes his book with the quote, “Now the secret of my own happiness, my own
good future, is within my own hands. I must not miss the opportunity!”
Please don’t continue on through life in a state of
unhappiness. Life is far too short.

Your Destiny Can’t Be Changed,
But It Can Be Challenged
The concept of destiny and the role it plays in our lives has
been a subject of debate and discussion for centuries. While some believe that
our destiny is predetermined and that we are merely following a pre-written
script, others believe that we have the power to shape our own futures. German
philosopher Martin Heidegger’s statement, “Your destiny can’t be changed but,
it can be challenged,” sheds light on this topic and offers an interesting
perspective.
Heidegger’s quote suggests that while our destiny may be set
in stone, we have the power to question it and challenge it. This means that we
have the ability to take control of our lives and influence the outcome of
events, even if our ultimate destiny remains unchanged. In other words, we can
change the way we experience our destiny, and how we approach it, by making
conscious choices and taking control of our own lives.
This idea aligns with the concept of free will, which
suggests that we have the power to make choices and that our actions can have a
significant impact on our lives and the lives of those around us. It also
acknowledges the importance of self-reflection and introspection in our lives,
as challenging our destiny requires us to examine our thoughts, beliefs, and
actions.
In order to challenge our destiny, we must have a clear
understanding of what it is that we want to achieve and what we believe our
destiny to be. We must also be willing to take risks and step outside of
our comfort zones, embracing new experiences and opportunities as they arise.
This may mean making difficult decisions and taking bold steps, but the rewards
of challenging our destiny can be significant.
In conclusion, Martin Heidegger’s statement offers a unique
perspective on the role of destiny in our lives. It suggests that while our
destiny may be predetermined, we have the power to challenge it and shape our
own experiences. By taking control of our lives and embracing change, we can
make the most of our destiny and create a fulfilling and meaningful life for
ourselves.

The Story of Your Life
If your life was written, how would it read? Would it be
predictable and boring, or would it keep you reading to the last page? Would
your story be full of surprising twists and turns or sadness and tragedy? Would
it be full of family, love, laughter and happiness, or one of endless hardship
and struggle? Would the story flow like a river, strong and steady, or be
bumpy, windy and hard to follow?
As difficult as it may be to believe, most of your life has
already been written by you before you were born! You have designed this
journey on Earth to live out lessons, resolve karma and to strengthen your
spiritual connection to the All. If your life is extremely hard, it maybe that
you have left all of your lessons until this lifetime. If, on the other hand,
you feel blessed and lucky, you may be reaching mastery and find yourself
teaching and leading others. The life you are living is, then, by design but
not out of your control. You must consider whether you are happy with the décor
or not and start to take charge of any necessary renovation. If you feel stuck
or hard done by, I urge you to reflect on how your mindset has been, what
trauma or resentment you have been holding onto and what limiting belief sets
you are holding.
No matter how hard, sad or calamitous your story has been up
until now, the next page is new, fresh and alive with possibilities! Avoid
getting stuck in the story, Dear Hearts, because that may keep you stuck in a
lesson that you have already learned and begin a new, unnecessary cycle of
hardship. Even if you have to cut your losses to move on, isn’t it better to do
that so that you can change direction and focus, beginning the next chapter
with positivity and the benefit of hindsight?
Personal and spiritual growth are built on experience, but
they are also reliant on learning. If you have made a mistake and learnt from
it, your ongoing passage will be paved with deeper understanding of how your
thought processes and decision making create opportunities and consequences in
your life. There is no choice without a consequence, but taking responsibility
for one’s actions takes courage. If you are facing hardships but blaming
others, you may still have lessons to learn!
Life is like a stage play – all of the characters have
lessons to learn and need to act out their part to learn them. They may help
each other to do this, but quite often their journeys are completely different
or misaligned to each other’s, resulting in arguments and conflict,
misunderstandings, unfair judgements and disconnection. The only solution is
for each actor to stay true to their own script and to allow the other actors
to do the same.
You only live once in this lifetime! Set your own course and
take charge of your journey. Take responsibility for your decisions and actions
and allow yourself to learn. When the final curtain comes and you take your
final bow, make sure that you can look back on the story of your life with
pride and certainty that you did the best you could with the script you were
given, and took charge of the moments when life went off-script.
The only one who can change the course of your life for the
better is you.
Make this life count.
I AM Yeshua ben Yoseph, the one you know as Jesus.

Fear is the Greatest Blocker
Fear is the greatest blockage of your energy fields of all.
It stops you from reaching your potential, and it changes the balance of power
between you and what is blocking you. When you allow fear to take over, you
give your power away. To do this is the greatest sacrifice; it could change
your path from the one that is intended and right to one of compromise and loss
of opportunity.
Do not allow fear to stop you from achieving what you have
set out to do. Do not allow others to manipulate you through fear either. When
you stand in your power you have access to your higher self, and that will
bring you to a place of faith, trust and acceptance of self.
Beliefs based on fear will only generate more fear which will
generate the emotions of hatred and intolerance. In turn, these emotions will
produce atrocities and injustices. Fear is the greatest blocker but it is also
the greatest manipulator. It is widely used as a tool by those who would wish
to keep the world and its population under control for financial gain. Much
propaganda is fed to all of you in order to keep you in fear. Fear causes the
illusion of separation and the belief that any decision you make only affects
you. This is a dangerous fallacy.
When you believe in something or someone, you trust in its or
their worth and you hold them in good faith. Faith and trust allow you to relax
your judgement and discernment and to perhaps stop asking questions when it is
not always safe not to. There are many occurrences around the world, now and in
the past, whose explanations have, in the most part, been accepted by the
masses. Many of the ‘truths’ are, in fact, lies to cover more sinister plans.
Propaganda is a widespread practice to ensure people are kept in their comfort
zones with the wool kept firmly over their eyes. It is time to stop being a
sheep and to begin to practice discernment! It is unwise to practice blind
faith or trust in matters of global importance, for those who appear most
concerned may, in truth, be the perpetrators and be protecting their own
interests.
Fear divides and love unites. Love is all there is! There is
nothing that cannot be overcome when one is working from the heart with loving
intention without hidden agendas. Do not allow yourself to lose sight of who
you are in spirit or of your connection to the powers of the universe that are
your tools to overcome the hardships, injustices or dilemmas you are
facing. All else is illusion and will
only become reality if you believe it to be so. When you create with intention
and belief that you and your loved ones are protected, it will be so.
In the energy of love, everyone is a warrior of the light.
There is no fear, only the strong belief in self and in the Universe/source of
creation that provides on demand and when needed. The worries of the physical
world are present but not all consuming, because the person living in
connection with the All has tools to assist them to stay above the shadows that
lurk in every corner. They become wayshowers and leaders, teachers and guides
to assist others to learn how to protect themselves from attack and to project
love out to the world.
Love is the greatest unblocker. When you come from a place of
love you set yourself free. Freedom will set you onto your path; the one you
chose in communion with me. Ask me for guidance and you will move forward with
grace and fulfilment.
I AM Creator of All That Is."
Victoria Cochrane 2014
A Quick Grounding
Sitting or standing, take a breath in and envision a ball of light on your crown at the top of your head.
Now, breathing out, bring the light in a straight line down
through the middle of our body, holding the intention of aligning your chakras.
Bring the light back up and send it down again, this time
holding the intention of balancing your chakras. Bring it back up and send it
back down, this time to clear the day and all energies no longer serving you
from your chakras.
Now we will clear our auras, breathing in to bring the light
up to our crown and then breathing light into our auras, washing all the way
down your body to the ground.
Bring it back up and breathe light into your aura again,
holding the intention of repairing any tears or holes.
Hold it there without breathing for three seconds, then,
taking another breath in, breathe out and send the light down your body again
and send it into the ground.
Hold it there for three seconds then breathe normally. You
are now grounded and your aura is protected for the day.

The Last Word
Thinking About Thought
There is a popular saying that goes, “Thoughts become things.
Choose the good ones.”
What we think we are. We are what we believe.
Every single thought that comes into your head has an impact
on you. When you change those thoughts and think positive, happy, sparkly
thoughts, they become things too. This won’t happen overnight — or maybe it
will. We’re all different. Start with the one-pound positivity thought weight
and build from there. When a negative thought comes into your head, thank it
for showing up and dismiss it.
The more you do this, the more positive thinking will become
natural.
Louise Hay said, ”Every thought we think is creating our
future.”
Archangel Michael says, “Thoughts create form.” (Herman,
2002, Star*Quest Publishing).
It takes time and effort to change negative thought patterns
and beliefs, so being vigilant in changing negatives to positives and reframing
self-derogatory statements is so important if you are to change your reality
for the better.
Try reframing thoughts such as “I’m hopeless at that” to I’m
getting better at…”
Positivity creates more positivity, so try it and create a
better opportunity for change in your life!

A Spectrum of Consciousness
Conspiracy!
Dark versus light,
Fear and anger.
Terror unleashed,
Rumours abound.
Pandemic is rife
Media sensationalises.
We are divided in fear
With no way out.
Truth!
Lifting the veil,
Illusions unmasked.
Centre and breathe,
Connect only to love.
Bring in the angels
To keep you in balance
And raise your vibrations,
Above all the fear.
Love!
Breathe it and send it
Out to the world.
Stay on the path
That leads to your light.
Connect to the consciousness
That says we are One.
There’s no separation
So bridge the illusion
That you have no say.
Create!
Love is the question
And you are the answer.
You create your reality
With the thoughts that you think.
Bring in the hope
With positive intention.
Believe in the Universe
That answers your call.

Testimonials for Victoria Cochrane
Hi Victoria,
I came upon
your website today through the website Medium. I've read a number of your
channeled messages today and have found all to be resonant with what I've been
told, in addition to much that I knew immediately to be true when
reading it. Thank you for the work that you're doing.
I am in a
transformational time in my life (isn't everyone on Earth at this time?)
and started consistently channeling about 8-9 months ago. At first it
was only during medicine work, but now I can pretty reliably make that
connection without it. Initially, it was my guides, then occasionally a
group called "the council", and recently I received a
powerful message from Archangel Michael. I have been told many times
recently that I am meant to be a channel. And I have been struggling to
get my head around it. I've thought why me? This isn't a job. Etc, etc. I read
this on your website today and I really felt the Truth in it -
All angelic
and higher realm frequencies MUST be grounded through a human body in order to
make a positive impact on Earth. Accordingly, only those people who have begun
the process of awakening or whose soul has achieved a level of mastery in a
previous lifetime (and agreed to assist humanity as part of their soul
evolvement) can withstand the energy of etheric beings without becoming
frightened, unwell or misled.
I felt
something shift energetically in me. There was more of an acceptance of what
is, what I am. So I thought I would reach out and see what comes of that
