Rules of Creation: Expectancy vs Expectation

While we often experience success in our conscious creations, we also get frustrated from time to time with our seeming inability to create things the way we want them to be, whether that is financial abundance, loving and supportive relationships, physical energy and health, or world peace.

Sal Rachele, who channels entities like a group of 7th dimensional Arcturans, The Founders, Sananda, and Leah, provides us with information about consciousness expansion. This channel from Leah brings forth an interesting distinction between expectation and expectancy that helps illustrate why our conscious creations don't always manifest as we intend.

The following is a message received by Sal entitled "Leah on the flow of abundance":
Questioner:  I’ve been on a conscious path for many years. Every area of my life has improved with the exception of finances. It seems the techniques that work for other things fail to work when it comes to prosperity. Leah, why am I having so much trouble?

Leah:  I love these questions. I’ll bet there are a lot of people asking the same question as we speak.

There are a few subtle concepts that I think will help tremendously here. Beloved one, I will not repeat what others have said and I will not tread on the same tired ground you’ve come to know in your metaphysical journeys. That said, let’s begin with something that will at first appear circumstantial but will later fall into place. I’m going to mention the difference between expectation and expectancy.

Let’s not be concerned regarding what Mr. Webster has to say regarding these words. We will refine our definitions as follows: Expectation is when the ego takes a desired outcome, puts it in a box, and then bases its happiness on achieving the desired outcome. Having expectations sets one up for disappointment. As the channel has so eloquently written in his book, “Life On the Cutting Edge,” there is a vicious cycle of expectation-attachment-disappointment, because no matter how hard to ego tries to create like God, it always falls short. We expect certain results, we become attached to certain results and we become disappointed when those results do not materialize. I say “we” as a courtesy because from my vantage point, all is God and there is no such dynamic in the sixth density. So I feel qualified as your loving guide to point out the pitfalls in this approach. This is the closest thing to an ego you can expect from dear Leah.

Expectancy, on the other hand, means an inner knowing that by following universal principles there is a certain progression of creative results the follow. It appears we are splitting straws, but there is a vast difference, because expectancy, as used here, is a function of Spirit and not of ego. We expect that as we enter the flow of higher-dimensional consciousness, there will be certain outcomes based on the laws of creativity. We are not emotionally attached to these outcomes, and our happiness does not depend on them, but we know we are co-creators with God and we live our lives as co-creators.

...

In order to create abundantly and manifest easily in the physical realm, it is necessary to enter a critical shift in the subconscious mind. In other words, the subconscious mind of an individual soul must have a positive momentum of creative and life-affirming thoughts to counterbalance the negativity taken on as a result of incarnation into the 3rd dimension. Many souls think that all they need to do is say enough affirmations and eventually that balance point will be reached. This is an arduous task because you, beloveds, are multidimensional and very little can be solved strictly at the mental level. You must be passionate about what you want to create, but at the same time, unattached emotionally to the results. This is why I spent time above on expectation and expectancy. Expectancy is based on the inner knowing that we are created in an abundant universe. It involves the feeling and experiencing of that abundance on many levels of being simultaneously.

So the most powerful step in the process of realizing your abundance is knowing that you can step into the “flow of abundance”, much like stepping into a moving river. “How do I do this, Leah?” I can hear you asking. That brings me to the next step. In your meditations, it is important to consciously visualize yourself in this flow. Think back to a time when you felt safe and protected, when everything seemed to be flowing. You can do it – I know there’s been a time. Now re-experience that feeling in your body. At the same time, go into your inner-most chamber of mind and imagine, for now, that you have everything you could possibly need. The truth is, you DO have everything you need, right now, right here. What does that feel like? Go ahead and pretend, if that’s what you think you are doing. You’re not pretending, but it may feel like it because you are not used to simply being in the flow of abundance.

In truth, it is impossible NOT to be in the flow of abundance because that is where God placed you forever and ever. But you can certainly imagine you are not in the flow, and your life will reflect what you imagine to be truth. Go ahead now and imagine you have more abundance than you can possibly use, in this lifetime or any other. Imagining is how you create, beloveds. You were given an imagination, or “image-making faculty” for that express purpose. You were created in the image and likeness of God, and God imagined everything into existence. Now you are learning to create like God, for that is your inheritance.

... Put away your ego, precious ones, and step up to your rightful place in Creation. You deserve to have the power of creation. You will not misuse your power this time. Corruption is long gone from your consciousness. You would not be listening to my voice or reading these words if corruption were still an option for you. No, this time the purity of your eternal innocence shines through the ego’s thin veil of ignorance. Today abundance is your reality. All levels and dimensions of your being are becoming aligned to your natural state of abundance.

Any specific messages, instructions or actions necessary to increase your worldly abundance will be communicated to you by your own God Presence. All you need to is listen and gratefully follow through with the guidance you receive. Ask sincerely that today will be the day you will follow Spirit “without hesitation” as some teachers have put it. If doubt tries to creep in, put it aside and reaffirm that today only the voice of Spirit will be your guide. I am here to gently guide you as you awaken the creative potential within you. I am here as you put aside the last of the thoughts, feelings and beliefs in scarcity, lack and limitation. I am here as you claim your place in the cosmic symphony of life and joyfully begin creating as you were meant to create. I am humbled to be in your presence, dear ones. I am Leah.

A Note About Sal Rachele

Sal Rachele is a versatile, and I believe, clear channel (by 'clear' channel I mean I believe his messages generally come through with minimal distortion). He channels a number of different entities, each with their own style of presentation and target audience, yet all giving the same basic information. I have found this to be true of all the channeled entities that I follow and trust. Geoff Hoppe of Crimson Circle is similarly skilled, in that he channels several entities with completely different personalities, yet the messages all agree in context.

If you take the opportunity to read Sal's books or the multitude of free information on his web site, be aware that some of the messages may not 'resontate' with you for whatever reason. For example, I have the most difficulty following channels from Sananda. Sananda is the group energy incarnated on Earth as Jeshua ben Joseph (Jesus). The presentation is more religion-based than I find comfortable, but many will resonate with that presentation more than, say, Jane Robert's Seth, who was my first spiritual teacher.

Steve Rother's The group continually reminds us to be discerning when listening to any information, no matter who it comes from. They also remind us to be wary of judging information even if we don't agree with it, and instead simply allow it to be. As they often say:
If any information doesn’t resonate with you, let it be, for it was simply put there for another.
