Lion Love

Most of us have seen the movie and/or read The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis and many are aware of the biblical messages that the story is based on.  What is not commonly known is that the last book of the series is about choosing between fear and love.

 ***If you have been living in a cave for last decade or two and don't know the story, don't worry, you will still get the message of this blog.***

The lion is Narnia's version of Jesus.  False prophets comprise much of the story and manage to cause chaos, tension, and near warfare with power-hungry, talking animals.  They go unchallenged by the large amount of animals who follow too easily and question nothing. When everything appears dismal and on the brink of catastrophe, the lion appears.  The ending is the greatest part: the lion stands in front of the door of a plain dull shed and all of the Narnians line up in front of him.  No one can see what is inside the shed. As they come toward him and take in his awesomeness, some see beauty and feel peace, love and harmony. These beings go into the shed and find themselves in heaven.

Others see the lion and experience fear. These animals/people shy past the shed and lion and stay in Narnia.  Their lives continue as it was before. No changes are made.

In the story, Heaven is a brightening of existence, bliss, and joy. Everything and everyone now recognize the world as love.  This is what the Narnians learned when they recognized the Lion as a loving being.


With the frequency of the earth getting higher, we will be offered more choices of love and fear. Meditation will help you to be in the moment so that you can be present and more readily recognize when these choices are being offered. Listen to your heart and know for yourself if you are hearing a false prophet, or the real lion of love.
