I live in the Sierra Foothills at a place I call Hummingbird House, because of the small contingent of “hummers” that visit our feeders. They daily perform a passion play for me where the actors may improvise their parts, but the theme of the story is always the same. It is a theme of cooperation through contest: confrontation for the sake of demonstrating the urgency of one’s need.
Aloha! Welcome to my BLOG! This site is my perspective on and understanding of The Michael Teaching™. It serves as the philosophical frame-of-reference and lens through which I view my life and collective reality. As the title states, I am a Citizen of Earth and thus all my spiritual learning, musings, postulates and services are geared for us to live with more love, truth, health, creativity, and potency…in this lifetime! The afterlife will take care of itself! If you are a thinking, compassionate, active, and concerned human being, who seeks out diverse viewpoints to inform, stimulate, and enlighten yourself; then I believe what you find here will do that for you. Join the VIP conversation! And, ask Michael a question using The Michael Tarot Divination Cards which are integrated into this site. This site is an ongoing work in progress. So come back often!
Enjoy your tour… Stephen Cocconi
In case it hasn’t dawned on you or if it had it wasn’t of high priority, tomorrow Friday, is 11-11-11.
Inspiration and Education about Soul SatisfactionCould you imagine Abraham Lincoln deciding to let the South secede? How about not proposing and signing the 13th Amendment abolishing slavery? What would America look like now? Famous cases such as these bear witness and provide illustration to the notion and practice of Life Task and how it is facilitated by what Michael calls True Work.

This question was put to the Consortium and me by a student. Here is the response. (Italics below indicate channeled responses.)
“Why does birth constitute the only way in which a Soul may be housed in a body? It doesn’t! The credo involved here, is why waste a perfectly good body with an already developed personality? The answer is simply: do not waste it! Recycle.” Continue reading »
After years of living and seeing what people do in the name of God or the Spiritual Life, I’ve come to a simple conclusion: We are already Spirit! Whether that is defined merely as the atoms that comprise our bodies, or a more metaphysical belief that we are “children of God.” Our journey here on Earth as living beings is the only certainty that we can know. The why of existence, whether projected from religious doctrine or scientific speculation, is still no more than glorified or generalized opinion. Continue reading »
Some of you know the Michael Teachings. For those who don’t let me say that the central premise is related to how and why we as people and spirits evolve. Michael too evolves! Michael themselves have channeled that all things evolve, thus isn’t it completely consistent within their own maxims that after 30 years, they could be moving to the Mental plane?

1. Humans are stewards of the earth, not its master.
2 God grants neither salvation’s, redemption, nor rescue. We are all in this together. We all collude and co-create the world and our situations on earth. God is waiting for use to decide what we will do with the Earth and each other.
3. Children must be honored, not reproduced for status, labor, or saving marriages.
4. People must take power for their own lives regardless of their income level or social status.
5. Relationships must be chosen for compatibility and honest similarity in interests, and not based upon simplistic notions that love should bear all.
6. Punishment model of behavioral modification, which means notions of abuse, brutality, retribution, must be replaced by making amends, accountability, retraining and genuine empowerment of personal responsibility. (Not blame as it now masquerades.)
7. Ethical standards are more important than civil law or religious dogma.
8. “Either/or” categories must go! We must begin to think in terms of both/and/in-addition to, designations.
9. We must begin to see emotions, especially those that arise within us, as having been inside us in the first place. We do trigger each other, true enough. Yet “getting our buttons pushed” regardless if the person does do with deliberate malice, they are still our buttons.
10. Emotions are energy, not the enemy. All actions on the physical plane are designed to help us learn about our emotions. Fear, is one emotion, that will tell the mind to “stuff it” or “up level it” “develop a strategy to divert the energy” but do anything but face it.
