I shared this comment for the creator—Image by Sarah Richter from Pixabay— of this image (on right), as well as other gratitude comments to other creators:
Thank you Sarah for sharing this creative, colorful, and fun image that also reminded me of the tiger and parrot spirit guides/animal totems/power animals. I used it for post: [this one]
I shared the following comment for the video, “7 Signs You’re In The “DEEPENING Phase” Of Your Spiritual Awakening“:
Thank you so much Victor for this very helpful video message, especially the last part about sharing full presence, Unconditional Love, deep understanding, compassion, empathy, and like energies with interconnected others.
Though I’ve been exploring my mystical inner world and the broad spectrum of Spirituality of outer world for over a decade, I, too, often wondered what other Life lessons I need to learn in order to be able to fully and truly help others.
But thanks to you, I’m reminded that I have been this way many times throughout my life, where I’ve effortlessly connected with people throughout this world, and sometimes, so-called others (often times strangers) get teary-eyed or even deeply cry after our conversations.
I’ve also been asked if I’m a healer, manager or owner at spiritual work places within Sedona, though I’ve moved on from those phases.
However, I still often meet and interact with my husband’s clients, and recently, I found out that the wife (of a couple) is also an empath, and she wept a little as well while we were talking, and I gently held her hand and encouraged her to cry since it’s healing.
Even when I went through a couple years of individual therapy, therapists, psychologists, doctors, nurses, would at some point share their personal problems and/or secrets with me; and I trust that it stems from a Soul-level intuitive trust that I don’t judge them, and that I have profound wisdom to offer if they’re receptive to it.
And during group therapies, certain others would share more deeply with me one-on-one what they didn’t share with the group.
I intend to fully and confidently OWN all that I AM—full-potential, Multidimensional, WHOLE self (earthly and otherworldly physical selves, to include human)/Self (Source/Higher Self/Universe: Spirit/Goddess & Soul/God within)—to include Being more confident about my gifts/abilities/skills/talents/etc. that I have to offer to humanity and beyond.
Because recently, an EMF14 member (Elite Mentorship Forum)—whom I butted heads with due to her vague comment about people who see and hear things are more than likely not telling the truth, and are mentally ill according to her and her staff—lashed out at me, after I called her out for exasperating a judgmental, discriminating and separating stigma about mental illness that has been hurting many people (and even causing some to take their lives).

I had strongly sensed she knew what she publicly shared would trigger someone, since there have been members within this 114 member fb forum who have shared personal experiences (to include psychic abilities), and there was a small group of us who had shared our metaphysical experiences during a Community call; but she adamantly claimed that she was just curious and was referring to her clients.
But then she aggressively asked if I had been labeled crazy and mentally ill in the past, since my fearful ego was triggered, and I wasn’t able to fully embrace, integrate, and OWN those two aspects at the time.
Well, now I would like to. I can be crazy, and even mentally ill, at at times according to the following definitions:
crazy: out of one’s mind [due to mind following Heart and Being in alignment] (Oxford Languages); an unpredictable, nonconforming person; oddball (dictionary.com); not sensible or logical (merriam-webster.com); very strange [due to re-membering and Being more of mystical/spiritual/metaphysical, full-potential, Multidimensional, WHOLE Higher Self/Soul/Spirit/ essence] or not sensible (Idoceonline.com); intensely enthusiastic about or preoccupied with. (shabdkosh.com); (urbandictionary.com => ): Doing something different from what people agree on. Being distinctive. ; Someone who is wild and fun. Someone who will go against the rules. Someone who does that they want no matter the consequences. Someone who will do anything especially for love.; A person who acts in a manner that the normal society does not approve of. Often misinterpreted as a bad characteristic, crazy is used to describe people that are random, hyper, creative, and flat out fun to hang with.(adj.)

mental illness: (psychiatry.org =>) Mental illnesses are health conditions involving changes in emotion, thinking or behavior (or a combination of these). ; Mental illnesses take many forms. Some are mild and only interfere in limited ways with daily life, such as certain phobias (abnormal fears [that we all have to whatever degree]). Other mental health conditions are so severe that a person may need care in a hospital.
[I forgot to mention this within this comment—though I’ve shared detailed stories within this blog—but it disappeared for whatever reason that I trust is perfect => I’ve also had many earthly and otherworldly Life experiences that have been labeled by general society in very negative ways––due to ignorance of The Unknown that have often been frowned by throughout the ages, rather than the so-called “experts” simply admitting not understanding—to include but not limited to (completely understandable reasons) for various degrees of: anxiety, depression (to include major depression), attempted suicide in my early twenties, various symptoms on all energetic levels—mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual—aka ascension symptoms, and metaphysical/psychic, mystical, and/or spiritual experiences. I’ve even experienced a year or so of taking various depression medications; but most of our military women’s PTSD group agreed that they had severe, negative side effects that we didn’t care for; so I decided to discontinue them, and I’ve felt much better since. Plus, I haven’t experienced extended periods of depression (to include major depression) for almost a decade since.]
Regarding the last definition of mental illness right above: I’ve briefly experienced staying at a military mental health facility, after having a flashback of a rape I had experienced almost a decade prior to that, from a Platoon Sergeant at my first unit.
The flashback was triggered when another older male “leader” (at my last Army unit) rubbed my knee (while we were talking in his office), and said something to the effect of, “We can be really good friends, you know.”
Since I wouldn’t have proof again, it would be my word against his (and he, too, was buddy-buddy with many of the higher leadership).
I ended up going AWOL because I couldn’t bare the thought of deploying with him to Afghanistan and possibly going through a similar experience again.
I made this abrupt, emotionless decision—which I strongly sensed came from my Higher Self taking over (which I referred to as Soul at the time) due to the absence of emotions during those brief moments—despite my logical and very analytical self (as a former Cryptologic Analyst turned HUMINT Collector Analyst) telling me that it was an extremely stupid idea since I’d be throwing away my fast-track Army career (and high clearance) that I’ve been working so hard for and excelled at for a decade.

When I returned later that evening (from AWOL)––after a long, yet, peaceful bus ride that felt like the HEAVY WEIGHT of this world had been lifted off my shoulders—I agreed with my leadership to be admitted to a mental health facility.
And I’m very grateful that happened. Because I had been stubborn about receiving professional therapy before that, due to the strong stigma associated with mental health, especially in the military where it was frowned up behind closed doors.

But it started my journey of receiving professional therapy for not only this particular trauma, but for childhood related traumas as well (to include sexual abuse).
By the way, I was allowed to keep my rank and position (Operations Manger) during my remaining time in the Army (about a years or so), and I was also able to keep my clearance for even two years after I got out.
However, I had no desire to use it since I had started another extended, mystical journey of further exploring inner and outer worlds of Spirituality for over a decade since 2011.
I now intuitively trust that I’ve fully released any remnants of guilt and shame regarding these “taboo” experiences.
Thank you again Victor for inspiring me to further deeply heal; I really needed to face these fears (that I didn’t realize was still lingering within), unconditionally embrace them, and integrate them into WHOLE self/Self. I FEEL much lighter now.
