(This excerpt from Matthew’s August 9, 2004 message was edited to include only information about Earth’s new Golden Age)

S: Matthew, why is the year 2012 so important? Why can’t the Golden Age begin in 2005, for instance?

MATTHEW: I’m glad to see you smiling, dear soul! Well, when you’re speaking hypothetically, why not start with 2011 in your mind and quickly slide down to 2005 for typing? Very well—the year 2012 has historic significance universally. It involves celestial orbiting cycles and their influences on your planet as well as life designs made in total clarity by highly evolved beings who planned Higher Universal-MAN with attributes of spirituality and intelligence that far exceeded today’s Earth population. Opportunities to return to higher densities have been offered in prior cycles and missed, and this time when the energetic alignment is again optimal, advanced civilizations are assisting so Earth’s desire to rise to her former vibrational level is assured. What happens on Earth affects the universe, so it is of utmost significance to those advanced civilizations that the dark ages on your home planet be reconciled within the light and you knowledgeably take your rightful place among your universal family.

But again, a date is not the issue—it is the incoming vibrations that are increasing the pace of Earth’s ascension into the fullness of fourth density that is of consummate interest and significance. If Earth were still struggling today as she was 50 years ago, even though your calendar would indicate the year 2004, the "time" of passage of the next eight years would seem an eternity in those lower frequencies. It would be somewhat like a child whose third birthday has just passed and she impatiently is waiting for her eleventh birthday to come because she has been promised a puppy then. Furthermore, the time of preparation for the Golden Age will become more and more light-filled and joyous for you!

S: Are obvious changes going to start now?

MATTHEW: Well, Mother, it’s the start of MORE changes, perhaps more obvious changes, because it’s not that nothing in vital areas has been improving! If you could see in motion the pace of the past many centuries with the dominance of darkness and only intermittent flickers of light, alongside the speed of the past several decades of growing light abundance, you would marvel at the swiftness of the changes. Just 60 or so years ago your planet was close to annihilation—Earth was so weak that she needed massive assistance from advanced civilizations’ technology simply to remain in orbit. We devoutly wish that everyone could know how much healthier Earth is now—you would be thankful for her renewed strength rather than feeling discouraged because the light hasn’t totally overcome the darkness.

S: Considering where Earth was, current environmental conditions really are not as precarious as they seem. With this greater light intensity, will everything automatically improve from now on?

MATTHEW: Mother dear soul, I don’t mean to confuse the issue here. Indeed, the greater the light intensity, the healthier your planet’s condition will continue to be, but this doesn’t mean that lands once forested and now are barren automatically will have trees, or that stopping the activities that have so adversely affected marine life automatically will reverse the damage and loss, or that relieving the negativity that has caused frozen vastness and deserts will automatically make them flourish. I am not saying that this could NOT happen in the twinkling of an eye, but rather that it is not what is going to happen, because you are there to assist in the restoration of Earth.

Everything is energy vibrating at one or another frequency, and when Earth was in prime health, in eras you don’t remember, all of her life forms were vibrating harmoniously. When she was near death six decades or so back, there was no harmony whatsoever, no balance of nature—there was hardly sufficient light to sustain any kind of life, including hers. What is happening now in her journey toward total rejuvenation is that other life forms are coming more strongly into the stabilizing forces to achieve balance once again. The devic kingdom, which is little known there, will have an essential and recognized role in restoration, including the changing weather patterns so there will be far greater equanimity of temperatures than currently. The second edition of the Garden of Eden will be bountiful in beauty and resources albeit with different allocations of energy from what is familiar to you generating the reciprocity needed for balance. Within that ideal sensation are the love, harmony, serenity and beauty of spirit that you, in your remembered awareness of being godselves, will be emanating to achieve it.

Yes, as we often have assured you, you will continue to have the aid of your space family in Earth’s return to her Eden self, but you are in charge of the restoration because it is your homeland and you chose to be there specifically to participate in this process. There’s a need to reduce toxic pollution in the atmosphere, soil and water, for example. There is a need for massive planting to restore forests to the levels required for the balance of nature, and to preserve and expand habitats where animals have been reduced to countable numbers. The oceans must be restored to health so marine life can flourish instead of disappear, and it is necessary to keep pristine land areas free of concrete incursions and to find alternative building materials and power sources. Indeed all of these areas and others as well call for the help of willing and able extraterrestrials, but your own efforts are essential too—that’s why millions of you are being inspired to actively participate or monetarily support environmental movements.

The point I was making, Mother, is that even with all these areas where specific efforts are needed, Earth is in far sounder condition now than she was when her life force had been diminished to her spark connection with Creator. It would be much more beneficial if the energy in fearful thoughts about Earth’s future were directed toward the positive results of your and your space family’s collaborative efforts. This again is in line with our repeated urgings: Focus on the positive, on what you WANT your world to be!

S: Matthew, that’s all well and good, but what about situations like the whales that are being killed or dying and they’re needed for anchoring the light? And other life forms that are seriously dwindling, like the seafood that is becoming scarce? Will deserts become arable lands again so food can be grown for the people there? And what about the relentless land development that’s continuing to upset the balance of nature? We know oil isn’t in infinite quantities and its extraction is harmful to Earth anyway, but transportation is dependent on it and we’re dependent on transportation. How quickly can Earth overcome all the domino effects of global warming and everything humans have destroyed? Even when wars end, how many people will die from disease and starvation before the Golden Age is here? I’m not thinking negatively, dear, just asking realistic questions.

MATTHEW: I do understand, Mother. There will be many changes. A world of peace, love and harmony demands more changes than only the absence of war and other dire circumstances that cause fear, grief and suffering. Yes, many, many people will die before the Golden Age arrives. As sorrowful as these deaths may appear to you, what these souls endure beyond their pre-birth agreements gives them leaps forward in soul growth, and the vital importance of any incarnation notwithstanding, this one is but a fleeting moment of their eternal life. They will greet their return to Nirvana knowing that if they choose another Earth lifetime, it will be in the splendor and glory of a revitalized world and the abiding love among its inhabitants.

About the cetaceans, yes, their spiritual mission is to embody in huge bulk and inhabit the seas to absorb and anchor the light being beamed to the planet from distant civilizations. That purpose soon will have been fulfilled and these souls, which species-wide are the highest evolved spiritually and intellectually on your planet, will soar to their original light stations when they make transition. Those who are leaving physically continue to grace your planet with their love energy.

As Earth continues her ascension into the higher vibrations, eating habits will change as people learn to respect and honor all animal life, so the reduction in food sources from the seas will not be a concern. The herds of food animals will decrease through the cessation of breeding and natural transition, and as plants become diet staples, those that are harmfully genetically engineered will lose their health risk elements. The allocation of food and other basic life essentials available in the richer countries will be shared on an equitable basis with the poorer countries until a global production order is achieved. Carnivorous animals will exit their food chain and turn to the plant kingdom for sustenance as they evolve into peaceable companions once again, and animal reproduction will be naturally slowed so they will not overpopulate the planet. The balance of nature no longer will require pestilence, so no disease causing or transmitting factors will be present and the use of toxic chemicals and prescription drugs will cease.

Current and imminent technologies will be used for improving all conditions of life, but here, too, there will be changes from what you are accustomed to, primarily in transportation, power sources and construction materials. Medical treatments will drastically change until there no longer is any need for that because bodies, which will have a greatly longer lifetime, will become free of all forms of dis-ease. Educational systems and resource materials will change to reflect the truth of universal and planetary history, and religions also will change in accordance with the truth that will be revealed.

Those are some of the most significant changes, and all will have trickle-down effects that ultimately will permeate and uplift every facet of life on Earth. You can see that changes in employment will be considerable, but your greater spiritual clarity and greater usage of brain capacity in the higher frequencies will enable the transition into fields supporting cooperation and harmony to come joyously.

Blue Star’s Perspectives on the "timing" year of 2012."

Cyclic momentum and cyclic synchronicity are not understood by the masses. It is the cyclic momentum which is the result of the vibrations and frequencies occurring not only within the Higher Dimensions, but on the earth star planet as well, which give rise to a sympathetic event of heretofore unseen proportions. The cyclic synchronicity of the event, is dependent upon all the key factors being in proper alignment in order to usher in the desired outcome. Now, just as a cycle is but a cycle within a cycle, each mote of the cyclic faction, contains all the "momentum" energies which have been housed within a portion of the cycle that is rebirthing.

As in the timeline of 2012, the frequencies and vibrations which are the Light incurred energies pass along a type of "musical scale," so to speak, so that each of the amassed and incoming energies meld in a harmonious union, a rapture of synthesized imprints of electrified conduits. As this unfolds, beams of light energy that were once but mere pinpricks, will be seen as huge and powerful energetic light forms which shall intersect with a particular planetary alignment at that time, as well as function as a "bridge," swiftly connecting with the spheres of ancient civilizations among the Star Worlds. It shall be as this event occurs, that a grand shuddering of the earth star mother shall be felt. The coalescence of light strengthening light matter is a cooperative venture. It is the earth star herself who has long awaited this "show of shows." Many, many universes little known by the human race, have been anxiously awaiting thus fortuitous conjunction. It is the beginning of the beginning of the healing of this planet. So much was necessary to occur here before fall of 2011, to ensure the success of this juxtaposition. Countless numbers of Souls are even now being forced to look into the mirror of life to better determine their roles in the "upcoming time." I have stated to you ones before, 2005 is a year of great change.

How you define change is up to your individual perspectives. This year shall being forth many "challenges," many tests of your strengths and weaknesses. Without the tests, how would you know if there is something wrong? Without the challenges, how would you know what may be lacking in yourself? Change is Constant. Those that refute this shall be those that refuse any needed changes. If you but remember that "the dark" simply means "the un-illuminated ones," then you shall know to call a spade a spade. If instead, you be of the Light, then let there BE Light. If you be of the dark, then perhaps it is time for you to pick up your marbles and go home. For the dark shall not be able to tolerate the Light. And THAT is the way it is!

I do indeed agree with Matthew, it is not the linear date that is the main issue. Those vibrations, of which we speak to you about, are crucial and this time they shall not be denied entrance by the human race. As linear time continues to accelerate at an astonishing rate, know within your hearts and your Souls that this is a good thing! So many of us and of you, have "set the dinner table," and are now awaiting all the guests to arrive to partake in the sumptuous feast of life. Be a gracious host and hostess, allow only those who truly are of the Light and intend to remain that way, to share all which is prepared. Send each one now an RSVP-"Respond to Spiritual Vacancy Please." Please to remember you are part of the beginning of the beginning and that there shall be no end. It was never "build it and they will come," it was "always" BE IT and they will come."

Now, when using the term "change," please to remember that change is a MUST. Changes do indeed occur in every nano second of your lives. Just because you cannot always see them does not mean that they are not present. Have you ever stopped to consider that perhaps you are not always meant to see the obvious changes? Do you ones not think that there are still far too many who would then decide to leave the good works to others to continue, while they themselves cavort in the ale houses, or the betting parlors, or in lust? Changes cannot be contingent upon each and every person willing to create changes only if they are offered something in return. Change must first originate within the heart, with no conditions attached. It is each good heart that is the first contact, the initial sequential step in Creating good and transmuting "good" to "great." THAT is change! For centuries millions of you ones have reincarnated repeatedly, determined to one day take part in the upcoming time. From your heart to God’s ear. Many of you will be active participants, "on the front line." Many more shall be the ones to encourage you to take heart, not to ever give up. Yet, when all is said and done, you shall all realize…"you are here to observe and bear witness."

Now, insomuch as light begets light, but of course the more light that continues to encompass the earth star planet, the more she will regain her once pristine beauty and fruitfulness. As with all things that are not manmade, this shall take time, there are many, many countless numbers of "new" organisms birthing now. These that have been absent on the earth plane for millennia have returned. Insects, birds, marine life and so forth, shall all be playing their roles in the re-establishment of a healthy New World. Areas that are still conduits of negative energy shall begin the transmutation into the positive, positive energy streams. Countries that project density and barrenness shall too regain that which was once theirs. In time some continents will disappear beneath the seas while others continue to rise. This is evolution. Orbs and Energy Streamers shall right now hasten their pace of descent to this planet.

They are invaluable Creators of all that is INFINITE. Those Orbs and Energy Streamers that house Souls shall carry their precious cargo to the destined point of debarkation. Each Orb and Streamer is on a specified timeline that was prearranged long, long ago, it was essential that these ones arrive here and there on this world at the time directly before The Great Awakening. Their life force is astonishing in their ability to repel opposing energies and dispel the lack of negative ions on this planet. These are but a few of their "charms."

It is now in this 2005 year that you ones shall witness the acceleration of the highly charged positive positive energy "Inflowing" to this planet. You shall also witness the collision of the positive positive forces and the negative negative forces. As these two forces impact against the other, the negative negative forces shall begin a more hasty retreat than you are used to seeing. There is a cyclonic effect at work here, once begun it cannot be stopped, for indeed it is unstoppable. The Gaia Spirit who lives within the bowels of the earth mother shall settle for no less than the best. The earth mother herself shall no longer accept the dastardly vehemence of the truncating forms of negative negative energy, nor of the walking dead. It is written in stone, therefore IT IS. Humanity as a whole, shall once again ally with the Fairy Spirits, the "little people," The wolf, the lion and the lamb. Each day shall bring the wonders of God back to the people who have long shunned them. That which has been shattered shall be made whole yet again.

As the vibrations and frequencies increase to a crescendo, those that cannot tolerate the music of the spheres shall leave. The augmentation of this part of the Divine Plan shall not cease, shall not become muted, and shall not waver.

We who are the benevolent brotherhoods shall continue to be of aid to you. We shall be there to guide and support you in your rebuilding efforts. We have many of our bases beneath the seas, strategically placed for quick maneuvering. We are also in continuous contact with the peoples of the middle earth who are delighted that the time draws near for you ones. Please to remember though, there is still much time between now and 2012. Much that needs to be done by you, not by us. A Call to Arms has been sounded, not of war but far greater, a call to PEACE. Do what you can to teach others. Teach them to do what they can to teach still more others. In the end, it will be fine.

Now, just as death is but a miniscule part of life, so it will be that many, many people shall be called home. Please to remember that not all Souls want to remain here for the upcoming experiences. That is fine too. Each Soul must follow it’s destiny. There is no right or wrong in this matter, it is what it is. In time, many millions of the current and former inhabitants of the earth star planet, shall all reconnoiter here yet again, until such time there is no need, on an individual basis, for the Souls to return here. Although none shall have conscious memory, it is when each passes over that they will KNOW a sense of anticipation, one they will experience when considering another return to earth. They will understand that it was well worth all their previous efforts. Many ancient aquatic life forms are returning while other are leaving. All life forms, whether animal, vegetable or mineral must continue to evolve as a species. Therefore, when they have each given as much as they can to this planet, it is but natural that they should leave. There are many, many other planes of dimension that also require the Wisdom of the Ancient Ones.

As the times change, many will grow hydrophyte foodstuffs, but it is not time yet to do so. The physical vehicles must slowly be permitted the options of altering eating habits. Too quickly would cause the body to experience great distress. Many shall return to the old way of using natural herbs for minor illnesses until such time illnesses cease to plague the human race. An occurrence of tremendous proportions shall take place when the Akashic Library becomes "open to the public." Religions shall be unmasked, so to speak. The people will be able to readily see the myths form the truths. Do NOT mistake my meaning here, religions have served a great purpose. It is the experience of exploring religions by choosing them as rules to live by that can assist people in using discernment; to not simply accept man’s word over God’s. So many of those who have faithfully worked within religious institutions, for all the right reasons, have bettered themselves through the experience. I said MANY not ALL! In these upcoming times, humans will see and understand the difference between religion and Spirituality.

Now, before I take my leave, please to remember, you have much work to do as individuals and as like-minded groups. If there are those among you ones, and I know there are, who will choose to merely sit back and wait for the good times to rock and roll, then you are not, and have not, paid correct attention to all that Matthew and I are saying. There is no free ride here. All that you do, all that you fail to do is known by the Creator Force. "You can RUN, but you can’t HIDE!"

"There is a valley where the Spiritual stands on one side and the Religious stands on the other side. In the middle walks the Creator and the Creation. In time, ALL shall be as ONE. I shall meet you there."
