5D Light Tones,
A 5D Christmas Carol Dear Starseed,
Today I want to talk about a much beloved story for this festive time of year,
A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens.
Though naturally I have my own 5D spin on the story.
This story was published way back in 1843 during a time when us Brits were embracing a few new Christmas ideas and traditions such as Christmas cards and Christmas trees.
Actually Christmas trees only became part of Christmas here in Britain soon after Queen Victoria married German born Prince Albert in 1841.
And this tradition was brought here by Prince Albert since it was already a well established part of Christmas in Germany.
A Christmas Carol was published on the 19th of December 1843,
The first edition sold out by Christmas Eve.
The book was so popular that a few years later Dickens began giving public readings of the story which proved so successful that he gave over 100 performances that continued until 1870 the year of his death.
Before diving into the beloved story it's worth noting that Dickens was born to a middle class family that got into financial difficulties as a result of his spent thrift father.
The young Dickens aged 12 was forced to leave school and work in a dirty shoe factory.
This experience left a deep mark on his psyche and later heavily influenced the style and focus of his work.
So back to our beloved story that begins on a bleak cold Christmas Eve in London.
The central character is Ebenezer Scrooge whose name has become synonymous with miserliness and poverty consciousness.
The story begins seven years after the death of his business partner Jacob Marley.
As the story begins Scrooge refuses a dinner invitation from his nephew Fred.
He turns away two men seeking a donation to provide food and heating for the poor.
And only grudgingly allows his overworked and underpaid clerk Bob Cratchit Christmas day off with pay only to conform to the social custom.
So do I hear some boos from the audience at this point?
Okay let's continue.
That night Scrooge is visited at home by the ghost of his deceased business partner Jacob Marley.
The ghost comes visiting entwined with heavy chains which were forged because he spent his entire lifetime devoted to greed and selfishness.
Marley tells Scrooge that he has a chance to avoid the same fate.
He will be visited by three spirits that will offer him the chance to change his destiny.
The first spirit takes Scrooge to Christmas scenes of his childhood,
A time of innocence.
He is shown loved ones including his first employer Mr.
Fezziwig who treated him like a son.
Then he is shown his neglected fiancee Belle who ends their relationship because she realises Ebenezer is more in love with money than with her.
And here we go to the heart of scarcity as it existed in Victorian Britain.
Let's continue.
The second spirit takes Scrooge to a market where people are preparing for Christmas.
Scrooge and the ghost visit his nephew Fred celebrating Christmas.
Later they visit his employee Bob Cratchit's home and Ebenezer is told his youngest son Tiny Tim is seriously ill and will die unless certain events change.
And here again we are introduced to a strong theme running through the story,
The power of consequences,
That we have the power to change how we are in the world.
As we change then the timeline we are helping to create also changes.
The third spirit reveals a Christmas day in the future where a funeral is underway.
No one cares for the deceased and some are even celebrating his death.
The ghost then shows Scrooge a neglected rave.
With a tombstone bearing Scrooge's name and this was enough,
Sobbing Scrooge promises to change his ways.
And this is the way of growth where we can learn the easy magical way or in Scrooge's case we can take the path of rough love and rough consequences.
Karma is a goddess that will give us a loving hug when we are moving through the world with a heart dedicated to making the world a better place.
Or a harsh slap when we are acting from a place of selfish self-serving.
The final part of the book is where Scrooge awakens on Christmas morning a changed man.
He begins to treat everyone with a greater kindness,
Generosity and compassion.
He makes a generous donation to a charity he rejected the previous day.
He arranges to send a large turkey to his employees home.
Then he spends the afternoon at his nephew's Christmas party.
The true spirit of Christmas is the archetypal reformed Scrooge where goodwill and benevolence ripple across the planet.
This is the Christ energy anchored on the earth plane.
This is the destiny of this planet as we bury the old 3D matrix of greed and suffering and celebrate the birth of the 5D matrix where humanity truly becomes a supportive family of light.
My wish for you dear listener is that your Christmas is filled with the true magic of this time.
Beyond all the commercialism there runs a thread of golden light.
A golden thread of love.
A golden thread of hope for a reformed world.
Many blessings.
