Authentic Self Discovery

I knew much fear , guilt , shame and so much more but for me it was life or death 🥲

The notion that true spirituality might lead to being misunderstood or unaccepted by society is both profound and transformative. It implies that the journey toward spiritual awakening is inherently challenging but ultimately rewarding. Let’s delve deeper into the meaning behind this idea and offer encouragement to those on this path, emphasizing that for those with awakened souls, there is no alternative but to embrace this journey.

1. The Essence of True Spirituality

Authentic Self-Discovery:

Peeling Away Layers: True spirituality involves peeling away the layers of societal conditioning to discover one’s authentic self. This process can be disorienting, as it often reveals truths that challenge conventional wisdom.

Deep Connection with the Divine: It fosters a profound connection with the divine, the universe, or a higher power, transcending the material and superficial aspects of life.

2. The Courage to Be Different

Breaking Free from Conformity:

Embracing Uniqueness: Spiritual seekers must embrace their unique path, even when it diverges sharply from societal norms. This requires immense courage and conviction.

Facing Resistance: Society often resists change and nonconformity. Those on a spiritual path might face skepticism, criticism, or even ostracism, but this resistance is a testament to their authenticity.

3. Inner Transformation and Growth

Prioritizing Inner Peace:

Cultivating Inner Peace: True spirituality prioritizes inner peace and harmony over external success. This inner transformation brings lasting fulfillment and joy that external achievements cannot provide.

Living Authentically: By aligning actions with inner values, spiritual individuals live more authentically, leading to a deeper sense of satisfaction and purpose.

4. Embracing Solitude and Contemplation

The Power of Solitude:

Time for Reflection: Solitude provides the necessary space for reflection, self-discovery, and spiritual growth. It is in these quiet moments that profound insights often arise.

Strength in Solitude: Solitude is not loneliness but a state of being with oneself. Embracing it strengthens the soul and deepens the connection with the inner self and the divine.

5. Redefining Success

Inner Fulfillment Over Material Gain:

New Measures of Success: For the spiritually awakened, success is measured by inner fulfillment, peace, and alignment with one’s higher purpose rather than by wealth, status, or popularity.

Living with Purpose: This redefined success leads to living a life of purpose and meaning, contributing positively to the world in ways that resonate deeply with one’s soul.

6. Encouragement for the Journey

Embrace the Journey:

Trust the Process: Trust that the spiritual journey, though challenging, is leading to a deeper truth and a more authentic existence. The difficulties faced are part of the growth process.

Find Your Tribe: Seek out like-minded individuals or communities who understand and support your journey. They can provide valuable companionship and encouragement.

No Other Way for Awakened Souls:

Inevitability of the Path: For those with awakened souls, there is no other way but to follow this path. The calling of the soul is too strong to ignore, and any attempt to conform to societal expectations at the expense of inner truth leads to inner conflict and dissatisfaction.

Inner Guidance: Trust your inner guidance. It is a compass that directs you toward your true purpose and fulfillment, even when the external world does not understand.

True spirituality is a courageous journey of self-discovery, inner transformation, and living authentically. It often leads to being misunderstood or unaccepted by society, but this is a sign of genuine spiritual growth. For those with awakened souls, there is no alternative but to embrace this path. The ultimate reward is a life of inner peace, authenticity, and profound connection with the divine. Embrace the journey with courage, trust in your inner guidance, and remember that true success lies in the fulfillment of your soul’s purpose.

The value of having nothing on your mind

The Misconception of “Thinking of Nothing”

Common Misunderstanding:

Many believe that “thinking of nothing” means literally having no thoughts at all. This idea often leads to frustration because it’s virtually impossible for the brain to be completely empty of thoughts for an extended period.

What It Really Means:

Instead, “thinking of nothing” in meditation refers to calming the mind and reducing the constant chatter, especially thoughts related to external concerns like stress, work, or daily problems. The aim is to achieve a state where the mind is not preoccupied with external distractions.

The Practice of Focusing on One Thing

Focus on the Breath:

One common technique is to focus on the breath. Observing the inhale and exhale can anchor the mind and reduce wandering thoughts. Each time the mind strays, gently guiding it back to the breath helps build concentration.

Concentration on Internal Sensations:

Some may focus on their heartbeat or any other bodily sensation. This internal focus is not considered “thinking” in the traditional sense but rather being present with what is happening inside the body.

Mantras and Repetition:

Repeating a word, phrase, or sound (known as a mantra) can also help in maintaining focus. This practice diverts attention from external thoughts and helps in sustaining a meditative state.

Managing Wandering Thoughts

Natural Tendency: It’s natural for the mind to wander during meditation. The key is not to forcefully block out these thoughts but to gently return to the chosen focus (breath, heartbeat, mantra) each time distraction occurs.

Building Mental Strength: Each time you catch your mind wandering and bring it back, you’re strengthening your ability to focus. Over time, this practice can lead to deeper meditative states.

The Ultimate Goal

Transcendence: Occasionally, meditation can lead to transcendent experiences where thoughts truly cease, and one experiences a state of profound stillness and unity. However, this is not the immediate goal but rather a possible outcome of consistent practice.

Integration of Conscious and Subconscious: Regular meditation practice fosters a harmonious relationship between the conscious mind (active thinking) and the subconscious mind (deep-seated beliefs and emotions). This integration can lead to a deeper sense of self-awareness and inner peace.

Conclusion

Meditation is about shifting focus from external distractions to internal awareness, using techniques like breath observation, focusing on bodily sensations, or repeating a mantra. This practice helps calm the mind, reduce stress, and gradually strengthen the connection between the conscious and subconscious, ultimately leading to deeper states of awareness and tranquility.

It’s a journey, not a destination, and every effort to bring the mind back to focus is a step towards greater mental and emotional balance. Keep practicing, and you’ll find your own rhythm and depth in meditation.

12:12

Seeing 12:12 and the Merkaba Field ☆

Number patterns carry their own unique meaning and while there are some classic interpretations, I also think that number patterns can be unique to the person and their own journey.

So, when I started seeing 12:12 I tried to tap into my own intuition to see what this may mean for me. Perhaps it was a sign of something new coming into my life? While this resonated with me, I also wanted to investigate further.

The first bit of information I found came from the website Willow Soul–

“According to Merkabah mysticism, 12:12 is a code portal that, when you enter in resonance with it, activates your Merkabic field. When this happens, you are in alignment with the human heart connecting to the Unity Consciousness.”

Now, this really caught my attention, so I did some further research.

Merkaba (also spelled Merkabah) is our “light spirit body” and is an energetic field that surrounds us when we are tapped in to a higher state of consciousness. This energetic field forms the shape of a star tetrahedron and it is believed that this formation of energy allows our light body to travel to higher dimensions.

The star tetrahedron is made from two pyramids, one pointing up and one pointing down. The pyramid pointing up helps to connect you to the heavens, whereas the pyramid pointing down helps you to stay grounded in the physical. These pyramid shapes also vibrate and move in opposite directions.

When this spinning Merkaba force field is observed around a person, it is believed that they have activated the ability to travel across different dimensions. This is why the shape of the Merkaba has been referred to as a chariot or mode of transport for our light body.

1212 is believed to be the code that can help to activate this energy, so if you are seeing 1212 it could very well be a sign that your light body is developing and you are raising your level of consciousness to a point where you can perceive outside of the physical reality.

Even though 1212 has come into my consciousness I can’t say that I feel any different! Maybe not yet anyway. But seeing this number pattern has unlocked a lot of new insights.

Even though it appears we live in a 3D world, when we awaken, we actually begin to see that life is simply a reflection of the thought energy of every conscious being on the planet.

Collectively, all of our thoughts shape the world and reality that we live in. But, we each have a responsibility over our own thoughts, for it is our own thoughts that will shape our experience of what reality is.

If our thoughts are shaping our experience of reality, it also means that we can use our thoughts to access other realities and unlock other states of being.

It’s almost similar to dreaming. Every night when we are in a deep state of sleep, part of us “travels” and visits certain people and places and experiences certain things. While we are dreaming, everything feels real.

In the same way that we travel in our dreams, our light bodies can also travel to higher states of consciousness in order to see the world differently and to experience a different type of reality.

The fact that our thoughts create reality is nothing new, however there seems to be a lot of ego mixed up in this idea, which is why this idea has lost some of its power.

It is not about wishing for a car and then seeing it manifest. Instead, it is about aligning our thoughts with our inner self, our higher self, our true self.

When we can align our thoughts with our own personal truth, that is when we can raise our level of consciousness and feel on track with the destiny of our soul.

This state of being can be accessed by those who have awakened, but it can be tricky to stay in this state all the time. This is why the Merkaba is made of up two pyramids pointing in opposite directions. Part of our duty here on earth is to say grounded and connected, but of course, we don’t want to get stuck here.

Because 1212 is believed to be the code that activates the Merkaba, on 12/12 every year, it is believed that a portal opens to help accelerate the formation of this energy field.

Once this energy field exists around you, it is able to lift your light body to higher levels of consciousness, so you can align with unity and oneness, and see that we are all connected.

Matriarchal society of Native Americans ❤️💯

NURTURING:When Europeans first arrived in North America, they were amazed by the Indigenous People and their culture and how it differed from their own. Children appeared to be indulged and lavished with affection more than European children, who were often disciplined by force. This tenderness instilled in them a sense of honor and respect through example. Native appearance and dress were understandably different, but strangely, native infants at birth were as light of skin as any from Europe. As they aged, their skins took on the hues of adults.��The women of these strange new people were esteemed and honored by society, unlike European women. American tribes had a matriarchal society in which children “belonged” to their mothers and were raised by them. The words of these women held sway. It was often their voices that ended conflicts or chose a direction for the entire clan or tribe.��In this painting, the Clan Mothers welcome new additions to the village. They will be raised in the old ways and and someday may become leaders of their people. (written with the help of Beth Kennedy — author and Clan Mother)Courtesy ~ JohnBuxton

Do not underestimate

“Do not underestimate someone who has lost everything and is still here to tell the story.

Do not underestimate someone who has fought dearly for sobriety. Peace. Forgiveness. Self-love. Freedom. Authenticity. Truth.

Do not underestimate the lonely. They have braved wars that only those who understand the absence of human connection can do. Even now. They are holding it all together while coming so wildly undone. And sometimes we may see them unravel ever so softly. Or loudly. Or however their soul unties its cage the best.

Do not underestimate the ones who have suffered the kind of grief that does not seem to end. Who have been broken in places you did not even know existed. The ones who fell into silence because their lungs had no words left to speak.

We will not always be strong.

No.

But we are enduring.”✨♥️
