You are more than pathology – Craig Childress PsyD

Don’t let the pathology consume you.

You are more than the pathology. You had a life. You have a life. You have a lifetime to come.

You are faced with a challenge. The other parent is pathological – problematic. The other parent is creating attachment pathology in the child toward you for advantages and secondary gain to the pathological parent.

You will need to lead your family into a post-divorce solution of a healthy and successful separated family structure. The child is giving you a problem because the child knows you can solve it. You’re the healthier parent.

The other parent is collapsing into their pathology. It is up to you to lead the family into a solution. You just need support. You want a written treatment plan to fix things.

The pathology wants to drive this into the legal system and make it about custody. You want to move this into the healthcare system and make it about treatment.

Then you must become an informed consumer of mental health services to effectively advocate for yourself and your child. Be kind, always be kind. Be relentless in protecting your child.

The pathogen will try everything it can to destabilize you. Remain in your center-place of confidence. Don’t trigger into your fears. Use your executive functions of linear-logical reasoning and planning ahead.

Shift the focus from custody to treatment, make the pathogen argue against treatment – this will expose it. You want a written treatment plan, for that you’ll need a diagnosis.

Understand the approach. Understand the diagnosis.

In all cases of severe attachment pathology surrounding court-involved custody conflict, a proper risk assessment for possible child abuse needs to be conducted to the appropriate differential diagnosis for each parent.

Patients should NEVER have to explain the pathology to the doctor… but you do. That is a highly concerning professional problem. We will be working to fix it.

The doctors should know as least as much as you do – more. They should know all about cross-generational coalitions and shared persecutory delusions, and they should be explaining the child abuse and spousal abuse pathology to you.

They’re not. You will need to navigate their ignorance.

You remain stable. You remain in your authenticity. You did nothing wrong. It’s not your fault. Bad people are doing bad things, we are going to make them stop.

Don’t let the pathology (problem) consume who you are. You have a challenge, there is a pathology in your family. It’s an attachment pathology, a problem in the love-and-bonding system of the brain. The source of the problem (pathology) is in the unresolved childhood trauma of the pathological (problematic) parent.

This is a pathology of lies. Everything about the pathology is a lie. It is a delusion – a false belief – a delusion is a fixed and false belief maintained despite contrary evidence. No amount of contrary evidence will ever change a delusion because that’s the definition of delusional.

The type of delusion (created in unresolved childhood trauma) is called a “persecutory delusion” – it is a fixed and false belief in supposed victimization.

The American Psychiatric Association provides the following definition of a persecutory delusion:

From the APA: “Persecutory Type: delusions that the person (or someone to whom the person is close) is being malevolently treated in some way.”

The differential diagnosis for severe attachment pathology is child abuse by one parent or the other;

Either the targeted parent is abusing the child, thereby creating the child’s attachment pathology toward that parent,

Or the allied parent is psychologically abusing the child by creating a shared persecutory delusion and false attachment pathology in the child.

One way or the other, the differential diagnosis for severe attachment pathology (i.e., a child rejecting a parent) is child abuse. The only question is, which parent?

In all cases of severe attachment pathology surrounding court-involved custody conflict, a proper risk assessment for possible child abuse needs to be conducted to the appropriate differential diagnosis for each parent.

You have a problem. You need to fix the problem. You need a written treatment plan to fix your problem. That requires a diagnosis. Diagnosis guides treatment. The treatment for cancer is different than the treatment for diabetes.

The treatment for child abuse by the targeted parent is different than the treatment of psychological child abuse by the allied parent. Is there a persecutory delusion present?

Does the child have a fixed and false belief that the child is being “malevolently treated in some way” by the parenting of the targeted parent? Does the allied parent share the child’s fixed and false belief that the child is being malevolently treated in some way by the parenting of the targeted parent?

Is there a shared persecutory delusion?

You don’t want an assessment (you do, but don’t start there). You want a treatment plan (google WikiHow mental health treatment plans). For a treatment plan you will need a diagnosis (diagnosis guides treatment). For a diagnosis, you will need a proper clinical diagnostic risk assessment for possible child abuse to the appropriate differential diagnosis for each parent.

Start with the written treatment plan and don’t let go of that. Hang on and don’t let them shake you loose from treatment – you want things fixed.

That ends with obtaining a proper risk assessment for the proper diagnostic issues of concern. Are you abusing your child? Is the other parent psychologically abusing the child? We need an accurate diagnosis to guide the development of an effective treatment plan.

If we treat cancer with insulin, the patient dies from the misdiagnosed and mistreated cancer.

You need support. You are the protective parent. The mental health professionals should be accurately diagnosing the pathology (problem). They should be providing you with support. They should be your allies in generating a solution – i.e., the successful treatment of the child’s attachment pathology toward a parent.

Diagnosis = identify
Pathology = problem
Treatment = fix it

You have a problem. There is a pathology in your family. It is an attachment pathology, a problem in love-and-bonding. You need to fix it. You want a written treatment plan to fix the problem (pathology) in your family.

The differential diagnoses of concern are:

1) Possible Child Psychological Abuse (DSM-5 V995,51) by the allied parent who is creating a shared persecutory delusion and false attachment pathology in the child,

2) Possible Spouse or Partner Abuse, Psychological (DSM-5 V995.82) of the targeted parent by the allied parent using the child as the weapon.

In all cases of severe attachment pathology surrounding court-involved custody conflict, a proper risk assessment for possible child abuse and possible spousal abuse using the child as the weapon needs to be conducted.

They have duty to protect obligations. They have competence requirements – Standards 2.01, 2.03, 2.04.

Don’t destabilize, don’t trigger into your fears and insecurities. You’re fine, you did nothing wrong. There is a pathology (problem) in your family surrounding love-and-bonding. You’ll need to fix it.

You’ll need help from the mental health professionals in fixing your problem. Be kind. Be resolute. Become an informed consumer of mental health services and the pathology in your family.

It is NOT your obligation to educate the doctor about the pathology they are treating – they should already know. Unfortunately, you do have to educate the forensic psychology people in the family courts.

That speaks to the immensely low quality of professional services in the family courts when the patients are educating the doctors about the nature and treatment of the pathology.

The other parent creates chaos. You remain grounded. You remain authentic to what you know. Develop a plan. Execute the plan. You are the protective parent.

You are the healthier parent. The task ahead is for you to lead your family into a successful post-divorce separated family structure. You just need support.

Not listening to people / psychiatry – Mad in America

Psychiatry exists in a perpetual state of distrust and disbelief of everything their patients say, including the harmful effects of drugs.

Sun & Ancestors

“My ancestors experienced the Spirit through their contact with the sun.

Like all natural phenomena you have to catch it just right. Not too intense.

A healing moment when the sun touches your skin, with such warmth, it seems the sun has gone inside you. You are warm from the inside out. My ancestors knew that is what being with the Spirit feels like.”

Mother’s Wound

Some of us were blessed with wonderful mothers. Some of us were blessed with challenging mothers. For some of us it’s a mix of both. Sometimes the best thing they could do for us was to show us all the examples of what kind of person we don’t want to be. Guidance can come in many different forms. But the important thing to remember is that you picked your parents for a very good reason. ❤️ – admin Lara

Our Unique Journey

Notice as we shift from a physical to deep energetic awareness, the nature of our existence is changing dramatically. Increasing stress, energy or incompatible life situations reflect we are adjusting to a higher vibration. Old patterns, behaviors and beliefs are surfacing for release. Feeling disoriented, “out of place” in the familiar, the acceptable is suddenly unacceptable and beckons action. This tells us we are no longer focused only in 3-D, we are shifting into higher realms, or. conscious of and integrating multiple realms already.

Unusual aches and pains through the body are purifying and releasing blocked energy vibrating at 3D, while we are vibrating in a higher dimension simultaneously. Recalibration is underway.

Rest assured, its common to awaken during the night between 1 and 4 a.m. or even multiple times. The dream state is not what we are taught. We can’t all yet handle intensifying energy for long periods, must break it up. ‘Cleansing and releasing’ is going on, allowing insights into the interdimensional nature of night dreams. Short-term memory loss, sporadic recall of the past are common. We are growing aware of existing in more than one dimension at once, and flip-flopping back and forth as part of the transition like chnging stations on a cosmic radio dial. Hence, symptoms of ‘disconnect’ with different people and situations. Also, our past is linked to the Old world, and the Old is gone. Being in the Now is the way of the New World.

Know ‘seeing’ and ‘hearing’ things is a symptom of experiencing different dimensions as we transition fully. Our range of sensory perception, what we register with familiar and subtler senses, is based on our sensitivity, how we are wired and which dormant systems are coming on line or already activated.

Life may feel topsy-turvey. We are forgetting what we no longer require. Loss of identity means the “Old you” grows quietly inaccessible, like it no longer exists. Clearing old patterns allows us to embody far more light. Rest assured, all is in order.

Another thing: ‘out of body’ (OBE) experiences are increasing. We may feel as though someone is talking, but it is not us. This is our natural defense mechanism of survival when we are under acute stress, trauma or out of control. Easing the transition process, may include tuning out or dissociating from the body. This only short term. It passes. Deep sleep is par for the course. You are resting from all the acclimating and are integrating, as well as building up for the next phase.

As energies shift within, we grow more sensitive to surroundings. Crowds, noise, foods, tech, other human voices and various other stimulations are barely tolerable. Overwhelm happens very easily with overstimulation. We are tuning up. Know this too will pass.

Come what may, rest periods and ‘rebooting’ are required. Each body knows what it needs. Awakening more fully is realizing that as our vibes heighten, reaching the higher realms, ‘doing’ and ‘making things happen’ is obsolete. New energies support the feminine of receiving, creating, self-care and nurturing. Ask the Universe to ‘bring’ it on while savouring life. Alignment happens in heartfelt energies.

Certain intolerances also present for lower vibrational things, reflected in conversation topics, attitudes, societal structures, healing modalities, etc. We may feel ‘sick’ inside, feel alienated. When our vibration is no longer in alignment, we are literally ‘pushed, to move in new directions, to ‘be’ and create the New. All-the while, our appetite for food and other old consumption diminishes. The body is lightening and changing biochemically.

Suddenly, friends, activities, habits, jobs, life situations fall away. We are evolving beyond the fromer version of us, and what disappears no longer matches our vibration. The New arrives in parallel with our changing vibes.

Curiously, we absolutely cannot do certain things anymore. Some activities evoke dizziness, queasiness and worse. Fatigue hits. Our body is losing density, going through intense restructuring that physical senses cannot begin to register or understand. The periodic blurring or pixellating of vision is part of this process. Some frequencies leave from scope of consciousness. The range of sound-light received, decoded and transmitted is shifting.

Some people feel urges to to eat often along with what feels like attacks of low blood sugar or know weight gain, especially in the abdominal area. Cravings for protein happen. Weight gain with an inability to loose it no matter what you do is one of the most typical experiences. Trust that your body knows what it is doing. Its another exercise of accepting oneself fully without judgement.

This comes with emotional ups and downs, unexpected tears. Our emotions are our outlet for release, and this happens a lot.

That nagging desire to go “Home,” as if everything is over and we don’t belong here anymore is part of the process of returning to Source. Everything is over, the process is done, but many of us are staying to experience and create the New World. Also, our old plans for coming have been completed.

Your ego is losing much of itself and is afraid. Your system is also on overload. Things are happening to you that you may not understand. You are also losing behaviour patterns of a lower vibration that you developed for survival in 3D. This may make you feel vulnerable and powerless. The patterns and behaviours we are losing are not needed in the higher realms. This passes into a sense of love, safety and unity.

It may suprise some, but vivid, wild and even violent dreams may stand out. We are releasing many lifetimes of lower vibrational energy. Many are now reporting beautiful blissful dreams too. Our dream state will eventually improve and dreams will be consciously used for new kinds of conscious creation such as interdimensional travel and interactions if this is not a facit of reality already. Some experience deep releasing and travel while awake.

Do not be surprised as plans suddenly change in mid-stream and go in a totally new direction. Soul is balancing out our energy. It usually feels great in this new direction, as our soul knows more than we do.

Some of us feel we created very difficult situations, with many ‘worst nightmare’ aspects to it. Soul is guiding us to ‘stretch’ into aspects of self where we were imbalanced, or into ‘toning down’ aspects where we were a bit over-the-top. Our energy is re-balancing itself. Finding our way to peace through this situation is the test we have set up for ourselves.

Come what may, each of us has created our unique journey, and our soul would not have set it up if we could not handle it. We are the one who finds our way out and so it is already done. Looking back, we are grateful and appreciate every twist and turn, emerging as the best version of ourselves, a very different being. ~ Liara Covert ❤️

Empty Nest

I experienced this in house , which was torture way to early due to the distortions of ex and psychiatrist and the effects of this and trauma on our children

The empty nest was barren energy , as I was removed from home and hearts prematurely; and other ” mothers” took over the character assignations

THE EMPTY NEST

My nest is as it should be now, empty.

Tidy, ordered, calm.

My babies have grown, beautifully, and flown.

Just the way I taught them to.

And my heart is full of pride, and love, still so full of love.

But oh there is an ache there, a throb, a pang.

I have given of myself in a way that only a mother can.

So consuming is that gift,

there is scarce room for much else to thrive.

So what now?

My empty nest feels hollow,

the echo of my own breath rings in my ears.

My worries have not flown with the fledglings,

they linger still,

but now without the comfort of a slumbering head on a pillow up-stairs.

My imagination tells the tales I don’t want to see,

and my spare time,

once so coveted,

is now my enemy.

My nest is as it should be now, empty.

But I will not be empty little one.

I will fly, just like you, find my new place in this story.

Play music, bring friends, make noise and laughter and fill the house with life,

so that when you come home, you see nothing to worry about here, for that will clip your beautiful little wings.

And you will remember how nurturing your nest once was.

And you will crave the feeling of it, just once in a while.

This nest will never close and nor will I let it lose its love.

Fly, my loves, fly.

And remember the way back home.

Empathy & Lack of Empathy- Craig Childress PsyD

Empathy.

Narcissistic personality pathology is the absence of empathy. The absence of empathy is the capacity for human cruelty.

Narcissistic personality pathology is the abuse pathology because of its capacity for cruelty. Narcissistic personality pathology is responsible for child abuse and spousal abuse.

Writing in the Journal of Emotional Abuse, Moor & Silvern describe the association of narcissistic personality pathology and the failure of parental empathy with child abuse.

From Moor & Silvern: “The act of child abuse by parents is viewed in itself as an outgrowth of parental failure of empathy and a narcissistic stance towards one’s own children. Deficiency of empathic responsiveness prevents such self-centered parents from comprehending the impact of their acts, and in combination with their fragility and need for self-stabilization, predisposes them to exploit children in this way.” (Moor & Silvern, 2006, p. 95)

From Moor & Silvern: “Only insofar as parents fail in their capacity for empathic attunement and responsiveness can they objectify their children, consider them narcissistic extensions of themselves, and abuse them. It is the parents’ view of their children as vehicles for satisfaction of their own needs, accompanied by the simultaneous disregard for those of the child, that make the victimization possible.” (Moor & Silvern, 2006, p. 104)

In their study of child abuse survivors and the failure of parental empathy, Moor & Silvern found that the narcissistic pathology of the parent was itself a traumatic experience.

There is no difference between the trauma of child abuse and the failure of parental empathy that caused it – they are the same thing – just flip sides of the same trauma of child abuse by a parent.

From Moor & Silvern: “The indication that posttraumatic symptoms were no longer associated with child abuse, across all categories, after statistically controlling for the effect of perceived parental empathy might appear surprising at first, as trauma symptoms are commonly conceived of as connected to specifically terrorizing aspects of maltreatment (e.g., Wind & Silvern, 1994). However, this finding is, in fact, entirely consistent with both Kohut’s (1977) and Winnicott’s (1988) conception of the traumatic nature of parental empathic failure. In this view, parental failure of empathy is predicted to amount to a traumatic experience in itself over time, and subsequently to result in trauma-related stress. Interestingly, even though this theoretical conceptualization of trauma differs in substantial ways from the modern use of the term, it was still nonetheless captured by the present measures.” (p. 197)

Moor, A. and Silvern, L. (2006). Identifying pathways linking child abuse to psychological outcome: The mediating role of perceived parental failure of empathy. Journal of Emotional Abuse, 6, 91-112.

The trauma is the parental failure of empathy. The treatment for the trauma is abundant empathy – authentic empathy. Through our “eyes of the other” of compassion and empathy we bring our intent to understand to their self-experience, and we help the child discover their authenticity.

Whenever we are asking the child to understand us or something we are saying, empathy is flowing in the wrong direction.

“Tell me more about that” is always an appropriate response to a child in all situations.

The ADHD child is frustrated with doing homework, “It’s too hard, I can’t do it.”

Tell me more about that.

Don’t give encouragement. Don’t try to solve the problem. It’s their problem, they’ll be able to solve it once they have the support they need. What do they need for support?

Let’s find out. Provide genuine caring and genuine curiosity for “What is it like to be you?”

Her boyfriend just broke up with her and she is despondent over the lost love.

Tell me more about that.

Don’t give encouragement, don’t try to solve her problems. They’re her problems, she’ll be able to solve them with the proper support.

What support does she need? Let’s find out, with genuine caring, genuine empathy, and a genuine intent to understand “What’s it like to be you?”

Tell me more about that.

That is of benefit for all children in all circumstances. Empathy is always a good thing. Caring is always a good thing. Listening with an intent to understand always helps.

Complex trauma is the failure of parental empathy, and the failure of parental empathy is complex trauma – Moor & Silvern; Journal of Emotional Abuse.

The treatment for the failure of empathy is abundant empathy – all the time – provide authentic empathy for the authentic child – the person they are, the person they are becoming.

The child’s feelings are authentic. The child’s attribution of causality for WHY they feel the way they do is typically in error – all the time – with all children. Childhood is the time of figuring out how the machinery works.

They start as toddlers in the high-chair performing scientific experiments on cause-and-effect. Oooo, if I push my plate of food off the table it falls – cool – oh – and when I push my plate off the table mom gets loud… cool.

The child is a mini-scientist performing experiments to learn about the world, things like cause and effect, and how to deal with emotions… whooo, that’s tough.

In childhood, all of childhood, they learn about their feelings and how to express them for maximum gain, and how not to express them to remain out of trouble… hopefully. Emotions grab them, “How do you ride these things?”

They learn about relationships and love. It’s on-the-job training with only one set of instructors. They have to figure everything out, or try to. They have complex feelings and they try to figure out why, and what to do about it.

Feelings are such complicated things. Not like thoughts. Thoughts are precise. Feelings are so vague yet so captivating. I know what I feel, it’s figuring out the why that’s the hard part.

Not just for your kids in the courts, all kids everywhere. I worked with them – school behavior problems – ADHD – family conflict problems and oppositional-defiant anger in the family. The kids are just trying to figure things out.

They can do it, they just need the proper support. What support do they need? Let’s find out… tell me more about that so I understand your reality better. What’s the situation we’re dealing with inside you? What’s it like to be you?

Not to change it. Not to make things better. Just… empathy. I want to understand what it’s like to be you? The problems you’re facing. Tell me more about that. I want to understand.

Feelings come when we need them, they go when we don’t, once they’ve done what they came here to do.

Anxiety makes us alert – watch out, pay attention, something might be dangerous. Anxiety wants to be safe, anxiety seeks protection. When we’re safe, anxiety goes away.

Sadness says we’re losing something of value – that we need to attend to the things that are valuable to us. Sadness draws nurture, sadness draws love from others. Once love is there, sadness leaves.

Anger says we’ve been hurt (or we’re scared and trying not to be). Anger turns off the ‘weak’ emotions of sadness and fear. Anger protects us. We don’t feel sad or afraid when we’re angry. We just feel angry. But angry is sadness and hurt underneath – when empathy for the sadness and hurt arrives, anger leaves.

Happy is the social bonding emotion. It’s great and its easy. There’s a brain-hack you can do. You can add happy brain chemicals to any other emotion and change that emotion. It’s a back-channel brain chemical hack of the machinery of us.

Just smile. It fools your brain into thinking you’re happy, just a little bit but enough. If you smile your brain responds to the muscles and it thinks you’re happy, so it doses you with a little happy brain chemical… which gets added to the existing brain chemicals for whatever emotion is there.

If you’re anxious and you add happy to anxiety, you get excitement. That’s the roller-coaster – wheee, this is scary and fun at the same time. It’s not a fake thing, you’re actually changing the emotion. You’re changing the brain chemical composition when you smile.

Better living through neuro-chemistry.

If you add happy to anger, you get leadership. Anger is power, assertion, and voice, happy is social bonding. Together, power and social bonding is leadership – come on, we can do this.

Oh my goodness, happy is such a good emotion to add to anger. Smile when you’re angry. Just do it. DO IT. Smile. You can still say everything else, just do it with a smile too – angry with a smile. It softens the aggression. We need to soften our aggression with children.

When you’re angry… smile… add a dose of neuro-chemistry to your daily living.

If you add happy to sad, you get compassion. When those we love are sad, it makes us sad too, and that feels good somehow, to be sad with them together. They’re not alone. That’s compassion.

When you’re sad, if you can smile onto your sadness you’ll have the emotion of compassion for yourself. It’s hard to do, to smile when you’re sad. But that’s what the neuro-chemistry of your emotions will create if you add happy to sad – that’s compassion.

All you need to do on the brain-hack side is smile. The biology of your brain takes care of the rest. It adds a dose of happy chemical to your brain, just a tad, but enough.

Hey, and the more you practice the back-channel brain-hack on your emotional networks, the better you get at it and the more happy chemical your brain releases each time.

You get better at adding happy the more you add happy. Smile. Right now. Just try it. Smile. Now do it again. Go ahead. I don’t care if you don’t feel like it – just do it. Smile.

More. All the time more. It’ll make you a better person. I don’t care who you are, if you smile more you will become a better person.

Betcha. Try it. Think of it as an experiment. Smile all the time and see if your life doesn’t get better. It will. You know it’s true. Smile more – a lot more. It’ll make the world a better place by adding more happiness to it.

The problem with the world is not that there’s too little suffering in our world and we need to add more. The solution to our problems is NOT to add more suffering because we think people aren’t suffering enough.

The problem with the world is that there is too much suffering. Any chance we can take to remove some pain, we should take it.

Nor is the problem with the world that there’s too much happiness in it – “No, no, no, don’t add any more happiness to the world, there’s already way too much.”

That’s not the problem. The problem is that there is too little happiness in the world – we need to add more. Smile. Go ahead. See? Isn’t the world just a little bit better from just one little smile?

Oh my goodness, think if you smiled again. Try it. See? It makes the world a better place.

Carl Rogers said we only need three things for growth and healing of everything within us, that these three qualities were both “necessary and sufficient” conditions for change and growth – unconditional positive regard – authentic empathy – genuineness in the relationship.

He’s right. Do you know how Rogers developed his Person-Centered Therapy approach? From working with children. He started by trying to use a psychoanalytic model with children and it was a complete failure.

So he tried something different. He tried listening to the child. Not to change them – just to understand – empathy and caring, unconditional positive regard (those are each three interesting words in a row).

Complex trauma is the failure of empathy. The treatment for complex trauma is abundant empathy.

Highest Destiny

Synchronized numbers are a rite of passage. No matter what form they take they are being directed by the formless. Significant dates or numbers you keep seeing are a code that signals your ancient DNA, your cellular memory, and your higher consciousness to awaken. To awaken to a phase, a more spiritual space in your heart, mind, and within your life. Dates such as today are usually attributed to powerful creative gateways geared towards upgrading your conscious awareness and when you see number sequences, either through intuitive knowing or numbers that are similar and reoccurring, the important thing to do is to connect to your higher self and ask what it means for you. If nothing else, just take a moment, breathe in deeply, and say “I am open to receive.”

Here is an excerpt from Karen Neverland on 222 ✨

When we activate the Thymus Chakra, a whole set of “super powers” opens for us. This is sometimes called “Galactivation,” since our consciousness opens up to the entire Universe. Awareness expands from just the physical reality in front of us to include the mass consciousness and awareness of the whole Existence. Gaia, Star Family, and Planetary Consciousness all become available.

We do not get these abilities until we activate the High Heart/Thymus, because this is when we have embodied Unconditional Love and the Law of One–the understanding that we are all One Being.

The Thymus is a golden chakra that opens on top of the emerald heart to activate its full potential. It is also a marker that the Alchemical Purification of the body has been completed and the Light Body is in place (alchemical gold and the philosopher’s stone). When a being reaches this point, after intense initiations and purification, they are trusted to enter the realm of the Universal Consciousness and to interact with Galactics.

The Thymus Chakra also brings the interesting phenomena of transcending Time. We start to gain awareness of the Timelines as they solidify and collapse. At first, this can be confusing, so here are a few things to be aware of:

• Merging: When life suddenly gets the particular feeling of “overwhelm” it means that timelines are merging. Suddenly, everything happens at once. We feel as if we cannot possibly do all the things we need to do. This is because we are “sewing up” the threads of multiple timelines into one. We are gathering all the fragments we need and pulling them into one timeline, while letting the others fall away. When going through this, just maintain a steady pace. We are not expected to do more than we can do. It is exhausting. Just keep moving forward and know that your guides are AWESOME at this process and will only give you as much as you can handle, as long as you keep working. Look into the Mandela Effect for a deeper understanding of Merging. When timelines of alternate realities combine, sometimes little details are different in one person’s reality versus another. There is a lot of information out there on this.

• Collapsing: When everything starts to break down in our lives and we cannot seem to fix it, this is a sign of collapse. We are not meant to fix it. When the Timeline we are on is collapsing, it gets really chaotic. A part of us is literally dying off and the threads that hold that reality together are being pulled out like a sweater with a loose strand. Soon the whole thing will be gone. You will either have the opportunity to “hop” to another timeline, or you are already on a new one and just need to let this one go. Stay as grounded and centered as possible. Don’t fall into fear. This is the most common “mistake” (there are no mistakes, but you get me). If we fall into fear, we will remain on collapsing timeline until we are forced to leave it. Regardless, your guides will masterfully pull you through. You can make this transition easier by staying in Love and Trust in the face of collapses. Synchronicities with 222 sometimes crop up to warn of a timeline collapse, so we can choose the higher timeline. Nothing bad will happen to you if you don’t. This is just a Choice Point to take an accelerated ascension path. If you are not ready, you will continue on your current timeline. If you are conscious in the moment, it can be a powerful exit point from your current reality.

• Running Parallel: Sometimes it is necessary to collapse a timeline, but a new one is not presented, so we cannot “hop”. This means that the timeline you need is already running parallel to your current field. You have only to release any emotional connection to the one you are on and release expectations for what will occur. It’s like a Trust Jump. Just let the reality play out and collapse as it will. Meditate and stay in your center.

• Split: When a Living Timeline is split into two alternate realities, there is a feeling of disturbance. As Star Wars says: “I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.” This feeling means the timeline you were on has been split, and the disturbance is the understanding that not everyone has made it. A split is to assure that beings on one timeline are able to continue in their paradigm, while beings in a drastically different paradigm can continue theirs. We are all Creators of our realities and these splits are forced when beings in close proximity create opposing realities. Often, there is little that changes in our tangible life, but we sense the loss as a heaviness. Continue on your path. Trust that others are on theirs. We all have a Higher Self and Divine Team. The feeling fades quickly, usually a couple of days.

I give all of this information to assist you in configuring your own Thymus into the realm of Space and Time. Once you set up your own system of symbols, you’ll get the hang of this. We’re in an intense period of collapses and merges, so we have plenty of opportunities to practice. Do not be afraid. You are always cared for and always on the path to your Highest Destiny.

Follow your own inner guidance.

Love, Wisdom, and Power ✨

Your circle

YOUR CIRCLE

Your circle should have no edges,

your circle should continuously flow,

as circles do.

Passing energy to one another.

Taking when needed and giving when abundant.

Your circle should want you to win.

Your circle should want to see you shine,

and when you don’t,

your circle should direct the light flow,

a little more your way.

Your circle should have no edges my friend

because circles must be round.

So, smooth out any edges in your circle

and watch that flow

do wonderful things for you all.
