Depression, Contrast, and Guidance from Abraham

Depression.

What a deep dark word that can be. When a deep depression sets in, it affects everyone who interacts with the depressed person. For me, it is probably the biggest contrasting situation I have had to deal with in a very long time. It has rocked my world and my husband’s world dramatically. My kids bounce back relatively quickly from everything. The depression has affected them to a small extent, they seem to be happily bopping along with very little notice to what is going on around them.

When my husband’s depression got really bad in February, I sort of lost my connection with source due to how I was focusing on everything. I would let my focus go to more negative feelings and travel down the emotional scale to meet my husband in his depression. That really wasn’t a pretty picture because we both were going back and forth between depression and anger. Icky, icky, icky.

I have finally come to a place where I am truly appreciating the contrast of the situation. The depression, our declining relationship, and my choice of emotions have really helped me to focus on what I really want. It is so easy to focus on the negative of an unwanted situation. For every “not wanted” circumstance or object, there is a positive “what is wanted” circumstance or object. I have, over time, chosen to focus on “what is wanted” based on the contrast that I am experiencing. I shoot off those rockets of desire for better circumstances and focus on what I want coming back to me when I am able to come into alignment. It makes me feel so much more powerful in controlling my reality.

Your Rockets of Desire

All of your power is in the now, because all of your vibration is in the now. So when contrast gives birth to desire, bless that desire. Feel the power of the passion of that desire, because the Universe is hearing your rocket. And when you relax, the Universe will answer your rocket of desire. Esther saw a documentary where they were tapping into thunderstorms to find lightening bolts. They were sending a rocket up which was hooked with a wire to their equipment, and they wanted the lightening to strike the rocket because they were wanting to measure the current. And Esther said, “Abraham, is this like that rocket of desire that you are talking about?” And we said, “It is very much like that.” The contrast gives birth to your desire and then the Universe matches your rocket and brings it right back down to you. And so, as you are moving through the contrast of your physical experience, bless the contrast that gives you the desire. In that desire, you are summoning Life Force, and if you can learn to relax in the midst of that desire, more good than you have ever imagined will begin to flow into your experience. Feel the power and the freshness of your now: You decipher the contrast. You know what you don’t want. You send out your rocket of desire of what you do want, and now you stand in a fresh new place; you want in a fresh way that you have never wanted before. And that’s what life is. In that fresh wanting, you summon another dose of Energy. If you can begin to savor the mere fact that you have desire right now, and you would stop trying so hard to have that desire be fulfilled and manifested in some physical format, then you would have it.

Back in May, I went to see Abraham-Hicks in Asheville. I focused my way right on into the hotseat to ask a question. The funny thing is that the question that I had formulated wasn’t really what was answered. My vibration was very much on my relationship with my depressed husband, and THAT is what I received guidance about. My interaction with Abraham did not make the Weekly or Monthly CD, so after much thought, I have decided to share our interaction here with you. I KNOW that what was said will be of immense value to many and that Abraham would be okay with the sharing of it.

There are 3 tracks which are about 5 minutes long a piece. The question actually starts a bit in on the first track.

Track 1
Track 2
Track 3

After my interaction with Abraham, I couldn’t remember much of what was said. I knew it FELT good but what was actually said totally escaped me. When my CDs from the workshop arrived, I was a little hesitant to listen to our interaction. I am not quite sure why that was, but, now, I am so glad I overcame that and listened to it. I was listening on the way home from work and by the end, I had tears of joy. That interaction raised my vibration about what is going on in my life immensely. Thank you Esther and Abraham. I can honestly say that our time together has changed my life for the better and I hold it very dear to me. We WILL meet and talk again. I am sure of it!

My husband is moving in the right direction. He does want to feel better and is doing what he needs to in order to get there. I am choosing to look for the good in it all. I choose to see in him that which I want and not focus on that which is unwanted. I choose to be that beacon for him and call him forward to better and better feeling places.

I know life is good and that this contrast will help form our better future together. These things I KNOW (now ). It took me a bit of travelling the emotional scale to get here but it was well worth the journey to me.
