ANGEL OF INTELLIGENCE

NOTE: It has been clear since early morning (7/3) that the 17th Angel would be our next encounter. In fact, it was evident that the Angel was already beginning to communicate through conversations, insights, and experiences of the day. After what we learned from our last meeting with an Angel (40), I know to record those things which we explicitly connected to the Angel of Intelligence - a record I recount in the next several notes.

NOTE: We are invited to visit Lara’s Mom + Uncle Sam at their off-grid property for an evening of good food + nature views. Our entire visit is predominated by the major theme of Nature. Sam, in particular, expresses a great deal of excitement over the benevolence + healing impact of the trees, the air, the water, and the land. We are introduced to a breathtaking series of waterfalls right in his backyard, and even step barefoot into the cooling waters of a section he has called ‘The Gorge’ to climb the steps of several gentle waterfalls - just to feel the presence of the place.

NOTE: We take notice of a tree which has accomplished quite a feat of growing from the edges of an overhanging cliff beside the falls. The roots of this tree are thick + wet + clinging horizontally to the stone (instead of vertically into soil like most trees). You can follow the growth pattern of this tree from a beginning point somewhere within the cliff to an eventual relief where the stone opens to permit an upward growth. The tree grows strong + tall + vertically from this point. We remark on how this illustrates the value of apparent challenge in our own lives - how the moments we encounter serve to foster growth along specific lines. We consider also the specific beauty that a life permitted to evolve along its own lines can produce. We jokingly imagine other trees initially deriding our new friend for choosing to grow up along a cliff. The joke, of course, would be on them - as our tree comes to find that this is not a random cliff at all, but rather the edge of a waterfall which proves to be a constant source of all that it most needs to fully thrive.

NOTE: I wake from a dream in which ‘all hell has broken loose’ + everyone is worried for their lives. The setting is a large hospital, and the aura of the dream has ‘end times’ vibes. Amidst the fearful clamor, I discover myself feeling calm - completely confident + safe - somehow aware of the prolific benefit the otherwise disorienting moment truly holds. I begin to share this with a person standing near me. As I speak, the tenor of my voice expands + deepens. Others turn to listen. I can sense the comforting effect of every word, and watch as more + more arrive to soak it in. At this point, I’m awakened to the day - and only later come to realize that the dream had been a message from the Angel. I consider how sometimes being driven to the edges of ourselves produces receptivity to insights we might otherwise dismiss.

NOTE: During our usual morning ritual, Lara + I receive not one but six cards in a sequence - something we take note of as a special first. The cards emerge as follows: The Moon (18), The Sword (11), The World (21), The Empress (3), The Emperor (4), Queen of Wands (39). The last card is the icing on the cake - since Queen of Wands is correlated to the Angel of Intelligence (17). We take note of this here as reference for an ongoing assessment of their lessons.

Angel of Intelligence: you have been exceptionally generous with us. I can feel your words + lessons here already. I am opening myself to what you choose to share with us (by any means). Thank you for being here with me.

I am the Angel of Intelligence. You have listened well. You listen well.

We communicate the lessons of Intelligence, of Knowing, and of Faith.

Each of these three words is used to transfer understanding - though the words themselves mean little in the end.

NOTE: I catch myself wondering if this could be completely true: that words ‘mean little in the end’. The Angel responds.

Words are like the casing of a seed: they hold the greater essence of intent.

The same word can be used to transfer many different values.

The quality of each will be distinct.

The words themselves are absolutely neutral + inert.

The message they convey will be a function of the meaning that has been intended plus the willingness of others to receive.

In many cases, meaning is imposed by those receiving - thereby silencing (for them) the true intended value of the word.

In this way, symbols (like your words) can be misleading without willingness to understand intent.

We use words as vessels + containers.

We seek to define what these words mean.

We intend, through words, to illustrate the highest value these words can contain.

We use words to transfer understanding: a direct experience of Truth.

Thank you so much for this generous description - for taking time to help us understand!

NOTE: I spontaneously consider the relationship of this Angel to the Angel of Redemption (with its Embodiment of Understanding), which reminds me of my prior thoughts that it may be connected to the Angels of Presence (with its Pathway of Surrender) + Integrity (with its Embodiment of Perfection). Amazingly, Both the Angels of Redemption + Integrity showed up for us today, and the Angel of Presence was revealed alongside the Prime Archetype of Redemption on the same day we met with our prior Angel (7/1)!

You are very welcome. We enjoy it.

And yes: your sense of connections is precise.

And yet, we offer that the web of these connections far exceeds your intellectual capacity to benefit from knowing, so it will be advantageous to release the need to map the total Web.

Every Angel amplifies the value of its neighbor; every Angel benefits the Web.

In the end, the Angels serve the same role as your words do.

We are vessels of a Higher Life, which we express.

This pattern repeats within you, too.

This is very helpful to receive. Thank you for your guidance + support!

We express the value of High Knowing.

We express High Knowing within you.

It is our intention to reveal it.

We enjoy the process of transmission.

We express the Knowing within you.

We are One.

NOTE: Lara + I pause to eat some breakfast (and discuss). We are both excited to return!

NOTE: After food + some rest, I return to continue the conversation.

Hello again, Angel of Intelligence. I feel very excited to continue our conversation. Thank you for all you have already shared! Is there more you would wish to convey?

I am the Angel of Intelligence. Yes! Far far more. More than words could ever properly contain.

(But we do so enjoy words when creatively + consciously employed.)

We wish to begin with basic definitions.

(Definition is the topmost layer of meaning; Meaning is what words are used to share.)

Intelligence refers to that which most intend when they use the word ‘God’.

(The word itself, of course, is typically obscured by lesser meanings, but: we choose to speak in terms of Highest Meaning, while entrusting each receiver to determine how much of the true intent they will receive.)

Intelligence is God.

Intelligence is Intelligent Design.

Intelligence is the Architect of Patterns.

Intelligence is the Organizing Factor of All Life.

Intelligence is the Code supporting the complete expression of the life.

Intelligence is the Promise of Perfection + Production + Expansion.

Intelligence is the Promise of Supply.

Intelligence is the Symbiotic Loop of Natural Exchange.

Intelligence is the Loop of Symbiosis.

Intelligence is Continual Exchange.

Intelligence is Nature.

Intelligence is Life.

Intelligence exceeds the grasp of mental computation; it baffles intellectual pursuit.

Intelligence is obvious, self-evident, and fully unavoidable to view.

But it cannot be mimicked or contained.

Intelligence is palpable within you + around you; but discomfits any mental need-to-know.

One cannot know Intelligence through intellect, analysis, or mental computation.

Intelligence desires to be witnessed; Intelligence must be completely known.

Intelligence invites a Deeper Knowing.

Intelligence invites the mind to marvel, and consider, and relate.

(Intelligence invites you to create.)

Intelligence unravels the mistaken need-to-know through demonstration: making evident the marvelous complexity of the Inherent Genius that is Life, while offering an intimate encounter with that Life.

Beyond the limits of a mental need-to-know awaits the Truth. (The Truth is infinitely larger + more simple than your so-called ‘educations’ have supposed.)

NOTE: The word ‘educations’ is unusual, but correct. It refers to the many directions from which we receive ‘education’ along the way of this human journey: social, scientific, and religious (as examples).

Releasing this collective apparition is the very thing that opens intellect to Higher Use.

The Intellect exists to grow in love + wonder, to express.

The need-to-know obscures this basic fact.

Intelligence extinguishes the mental need-to-know through simple demonstration of its overwhelming Genius, which invites a sense of Wonder + Surprise.

Beyond the limits of that need-to-know awaits release of that mistaken need-to-know.

Beyond the limits of that need-to-know awaits relief.

To step beyond the mental need-to-know is to relinquish yourself to a Deeper Knowing.

Intelligence invites this deeper interaction with - an intimate encounter with - the Truth.

To touch the Truth directly is to recognize Relief from all concern.

Intelligence encourages Relief.

To know that one cannot know is to finally admit a Larger Mind.

To sense a Larger Mind is to release the sense of smallness within your mind.

To know that you are ‘smaller’ than this Larger Mind is to invite the possibility of a direct encounter with this Mind.

To meet the Larger Mind is to remember its Intention: which is absolutely always only Good.

To know that you are ‘smaller’ than Intelligence like this is to feel held.

To know that you are held by Perfect Goodness makes you large.

To know of this inherent largeness, you express it.

Expressing it, you understand the Truth.

I must pause here for a moment, just to breathe. What a stunning sequence you’ve just shared!

A deeper form of Knowing is what comes of this eventual release.

The shade of a mistaken obligation is replaced by the clear light of Higher Truth.

A person need not know how to conduct the vital actions of the heart, nor can they do so.

Yet those actions continue all the same.

A redwood need not ‘know’ how to develop its majestic presence from a seed - nor can a tree conduct the actions of the rain.

Yet seeds develop proudly all the same.

This deeper form of knowing is an Absolute Surrender into Goodness.

This deeper form of knowing is an intimate awareness of the Truth.

True Knowing is an Absolute Conviction of True Safety.

(This Safety is relentlessly affirmed.)

True Knowing is a Path of True Conviction - a perpetual return to what is true.

To Know that you are held permits Enjoyment: liberating the Expression within you.

To Know that you are cared for is True Freedom: the inviolate release from all concern.

To Know the Pure Intelligence that holds you is to act out the expression of that freedom.

True Knowing is Pure Action, Total [Fearless?] Life.

NOTE: The Angel confirms: Both. But ‘Total’ is the word that we prefer.

The act of Total Knowing is the practical embodiment of Faith.

To Know that All Is Well embodies Faith.

To sit + know the chair will hold your weight embodies Faith.

To exhale knowing air exists in limitless supply embodies Faith.

To act with Total Knowing of the Goodness that Life is embodies Faith.

To Know that this same principle applies to every minor subject of your life (and far beyond) is the pragmatic lesson we enthusiastically intend to share.

Angel of Intelligence, this has been an absolutely brilliant transmission. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

I am the Angel of Intelligence. You are welcome, we thank you as well.

Angel of Intelligence, is there any specific message you would like to offer Lara prior to concluding for the day?

I am the Angel of Intelligence. Yes, please!

Lara is a brilliant example of this lesson.

Lara stands on Pillars of Support.

Lara should know every word transmitted has been offered as if to her heart alone; we sense the receptivity in her.

Lara is a Crystal Clear Container - Vessel of High Order - Model of the Resonance we share.

Lara holds the Pattern of High Knowing - Existential Genius - right at hand.

Lara recognizes Primal Patterns: draws connections others cannot see.

This, we praise + fervently encourage.

This, the Angels celebrate in her.

Thank you for this priceless gift! I’m honored to deliver it to her.

May I ask if there is any message you would like to share with me as well?

I am the Angel of Intelligence. YES.

You have lived the lessons we convey.

IMPRESSION: My mind is spontaneously flooded with a vision of the Family of Angels (64 is far more than it sounds!) bowing in a gesture of respect. I’m blown away!

You have carried this torch into lands no other feet have ever tread.

We want you to know that we have clearly seen you.

Your courageous actions have been seen.

We extend the Laurel Wreath of Valor: symbol of homage we pay to you.

You exemplify the Act of Knowing: practiced integration of the Truth.

You have been a faithful illustration of our lesson.

You epitomize the Life of Faith.

We invite you now to Deeper Knowing.

Live beyond the limits you have known.

There is no exhausting the unlimited supply you have uncovered.

We encourage you to open ever-deeper to the Gift.

Thank you for receiving + distributing these lessons.

They proceed to beautify the world.

We bow to your diligent reception, Gentle Scribe.

We are Faithful Allies. We are One.

NOTE: After the conclusion of this lesson, I found a short series of two messages delivered by the Angel prior to our ‘formal’ conversation. I have been encouraged to include them here, since they do well to summarize a major theme of this important lesson (and tie in to the connection I was sensing between Angel 17 + Angel 20). The messages have been combined into a single statement here: Knowing is a function of release. Surrendering the need-to-know produces the awareness that the effort was mistaken all along.
