The industrialized nations are in a state of turmoil due to the unsustainable debts that some have accrued and that others have enabled.  Your currency markets are confused and are unable to decide which currency, if any, is sound.  The turmoil will continue for some months, leading to further economic crises before the final collapse of world financial markets later in 2010.

There will be much anger, fear, blame, and general confusion before stability and soundness return to the markets early in 2011, when a new monetary and financial system, which has been carefully designed to provide long-term stability instead of short-term distortion, will come into operation.

Do not become upset as the markets flounder and then founder, as this will only be a temporary destabilization which is a necessary precursor to the establishment of the new worldwide monetary and financial system.  The new system will enable the distortions and errors — which the inadequacies of your present system allowed and encouraged — to be set to rights.  Then, true global cooperation of a completely harmonious nature, and that is good for all and good for the planet, will be possible and will come into operation.

As economic stability returns, safety valves will be installed to ensure that the liquidity of the financial system can no longer be threatened or drained away by unseen or unexpected leaks.  Investment in necessary, environmentally sound industries will grow, while unsustainable and damaging industries will wind down and then cease operations.

With abundant free energy readily available wherever needed, coal mining and oil “harvesting” and exploration will first be greatly reduced and then finally cease, as the industries that require that kind of energy become obsolescent.  Cleaning up and repairing the damage that those basically barbaric industrial conglomerates have caused will be a major task in the next few years, and much, in your terms, technologically very advanced assistance will be provided to ensure that this is done cleanly and efficiently.

World poverty will be completely alleviated as everyone’s energy and food needs become available in abundance locally, removing the need for much of the major freight transportation worldwide.  The speed with which your damaged environment will be restored and healed will amaze you.

As peaceful, intelligent, and harmonious cooperation in all areas of your lives replace the stressful, competitive, and confrontational disharmony that has been standard on the planet for so long, personal stress and anxiety will dissolve, leading to an enormous reduction in sickness and ill health.  Unhealthy life styles will fall away as you all start to find joy, peace, and love in every moment of your existence, and this will remove the need for escape from the constant pressure of survival issues with which so many of you are presently struggling.  One of the results of these life style changes will be an astonishing falloff in addictive behavior of every kind — drugs, alcohol, food, anger, abuse, and all other forms of depraved behavior such as manipulation, control, blame, shame, and bullying of others — to be replaced by large-scale acceptance of one another as beings to be honored, respected, and cherished.

The need for enforcement agencies will be gone, because when people respect and accept one another as equally valid and worthwhile members of society, the misbehavior that enforcement agencies have been used to stop and prevent will no longer be a major issue.  Peaceful, friendly, and enthusiastic cooperation will replace the legally enforced organization, manipulation, and control of people everywhere.

This sea change in the attitudes and beliefs that humanity holds and expresses is the guiding wisdom that will bring you firmly, positively, and excitedly into the Golden Age for which you have been hoping for so long.  Its arrival is imminent.  So start to adjust your attitudes in preparation for your move into full consciousness — by not taking things personally, and by refusing to be offended by the behavior of others.  If others behave badly or thoughtlessly, understand that they are distracted by their own pain, and rather than reacting in a similar manner, offer instead compassion and assistance.  Indeed, many of you already do this — you have all experienced people responding peacefully and kindly in confrontational situations, and you all have within you the loving wisdom to enable you to do likewise.  Allow that wisdom to direct your responses in every situation, and delight in the peace and joy it brings into your lives.

It is time to end the blame game!  It is very painful, has been going on for far too long, and totally fails to resolve the issues that it is supposed to solve.  When you make mistakes admit them, apologize, and cooporate in correcting them.  When others make mistakes, instead of blaming and judging them, offer to help correct the ensuing state of affairs.

Loving thoughtful cooperation is the healing salve that enables every mistake to be rectified with the minimum amount of collateral damage.  You all have the strength, the wisdom, and the love to behave like that; so do it, and watch in amazement as the world responds in kind.  Love is the answer in every situation.

With so very much love, Saul.

[P.S. FYI I just last month came across a wonderful book that was published in 1994 -- so quite possibly many of you already know of it or have read it --It is a joy to read, beautifully written, and incredibly wise. I cannot recommend it highly enough. It is by Paul Ferrini, and is called "Love Without Conditions". It is readily available on line (bookfinder dot com), and if any of you choose to buy it, get a new highlighter as well!!!]
