The following is a comment that I shared for the helpful video, “Full Moon July 23rd! 5 Things to Know 🔮✨,” that includes personal stories within this physical reality and dream state, along with profound insights:
Wow, you did the braids yourself? You look gorgeous (with or without braids btw)! ^_^ Thank you so much Alina for this informative, uplifting, empowering, and inspiring video.
I appreciate you sharing some profound wisdom, to include your soul-igniting and heartfelt, personal story of how you chose to maintain healthy boundaries, responded to a resurfacing trigger from an aware state, and how you were proud of yourself (something I was able to relate to).
You also shined Light on how to unconditionally and gracefully embrace a situation, if another continues to be unaware, since we can only control what we say and do, and not others.
I also love the great reminder that triggers can be a catalyst for change and growth.
I’m also grateful that you mentioned the importance of shadow work, as well as the non-beneficial practice of spiritual bypassing, since light (known) and dark (unknown)—aka male & female energies, mind & heart, yang & yin, sun & moon, God & Goddess, hot & cold, etc.—are simply two sides of the same coin.
And we can only UNconditionally embrace/love ourselves/others when we’re able to Be WHOLE (and not just what our individual and Collective EGO considers to be positive, right, and good).
Thank you for introducing the Law of Assumption; though I haven’t heard of this phrase before, I’ve been practicing it (at times) after I learned about this method via other explanations of the same concept.
In addition, though I’m familiar with Chiron, the Wounded Healer, I’ve never heard of the ancient Egyptians referring to this same energy essence as Anubis (Intriguing! ^_^), though I’ve had “past” life dreams of being in ancient Egypt (and toning, probably due to being a Priestess).
By the way, so glad you were able to be fully present during your well-deserved vacation, so that you could truly enJOY it! ^_^ Way to lead by example Alina. 😉
Since you generously shared very helpful information, I, too, would like to share with you—and whoever else happens to cross paths with this space—just in case it’s helpful.
[I was only able to share up to this message because =>] : I received a red “Returned error” message when I tried to submit this comment, more than likely because it’s understandably too long.
So I will share the remaining comment (of stories and insights) in upcoming post, “Expanded Perspectives of Various Triggers, Such as Negative People and Nightmares ” in case you’d like to explore.
Let’s pretend that I left water drops emojis here since I don’t feel like looking up how to do this right now.
The Remaining Comment of Stories & Insights
About two months ago, a former employer—a female co-owner of several boutiques in Sedona—used to go off on me (and other employees) whenever I saw her, for reasons that baffled all of us (to include asking a simple question, or even offering assistance).
Since we didn’t see her often, and she didn’t seem approachable, I wrote her an honest and tactful letter expressing my inner-truths, which I felt proud of myself for doing, since I wasn’t able to stand up for myself with my habitually yelling mother during childhood (and even adulthood until my late thirties).
This letter to the female owner—mirroring the same aggressive energy as my past version of my mother—included:
how I didn’t feel like I deserved such treatment, how a new employee should be able to ask simple questions without getting yelled at like a child, and the fact that I’ve been going above and beyond at work, and that I’m starting to feel like a deserve an employer who actually appreciates me.
She briefly apologized in a reply email—to include how that letter was a lot to process—and stated that she does appreciate me, that she believes I have a lot to offer to her company, and that she would like to meet up in person and talk.
Almost a week later, our General Manager suddenly requested that I stop by the office without an explanation.
At that meeting was the female owner as well; and to my great surprise, she basically stated the opposite of her email reply, and said that I made her feel bad in the letter.
At that point, I felt grateful to realize that I had the choice to participate in this BLAME GAME (that could go on and on and on), OR I could end it there.
Granted, I did reiterate certain points, so that our GM could be aware, and be a witness to the truths.
And to my great surprise, at one point, the female owner confessed (on her own) that she’s aware that she’s known to her employees as unapproachable (I had also mentioned in the letter that a leader needs to be approachable; otherwise, it can prevent things like: effective communication, an overall positive morale of a work environment, the creating of solutions to problems, etc.).
She continued that whenever she’s in her creative zone (i.e., organizing, rearranging, and decorating the boutiques), she doesn’t like to be bothered, so she has a tendency to become very irritated when someone interrupts her.
I was going to share this insight with her: that whenever we’re in the creative state, we’re tuned into our intuitive, spiritual, and fully present side, hence, pausing to interact with another wouldn’t trigger anger; so perhaps she was mostly in a logical state (at least with organizing and rearranging).
But I didn’t share that, and I wondered why later on. But now I realize another expanded perspective, after further opening my mind and heart.
And that is the fact that there are even artists who paint while feeling intense, negative emotions (to include anger).
So just because we’re in a creative state, doesn’t necessarily mean that we’re only suppose to be in a positive state (with our thoughts and emotions).
Why? Because, Spirit within interconnected Life within this world and beyond is NEUTRAL (as The Observer), not judging anything as right vs wrong, good vs bad, light vs dark, etc. (within the CONTRAST/DUALITY/POLARITY of physical Life).
Plus, I also had to be transparently honest with self, that there have been times where my husband interrupted me while I was in the creative mode, and I became irritated by it (though I didn’t have a need to raise my voice at him).
So I trust that this particular Life Lesson is about recognizing that the same, “negative” energy aspect that I noticed within another (i.e., the female owner) also exists within me, just different in the degree of anger energy (since feeling irritated is a milder version of yelling).
This expanded awareness helps me to unconditionally forgive this female owner, as well as unconditionally forgive myself (for possibly hurting another’s feelings, like my husband’s, since we can do that without raising our voice; I’m going to share this insight with him as well).
In addition, it also helps me to unconditionally embrace and integrate more and more NEUTRAL aspects of our individual and Collective WHOLE self/Self.
By the way, I’ve been emphasizing “female” owner (throughout this long@$$ comment) since her husband (the male owner) was habitually respectful, kind, and supportive of his employees; and he even shared uplifting feedback whenever he stopped by the boutiques.
This is why there’s a part of self that wishes I was able to handle this particular situation (out of various ones) in such a graceful manner at the time; but another part of me understands that everything happens in Divine perfect timing and order for our highest benefit (so perhaps I wasn’t ready to learn this lesson at that time).
So, to meet both parts halfway (and for the fun of it), I choose to visualize having done so during that moment, since the past, present, and future are, ultimately, happening simultaneously in the NOW from a Multidimensional perspective.
I also had a related nightmare this morning, of being in a dark environment, and interacting with a small group of unknown guys (probably young adults).
I used to think that whenever I experienced earthly and otherworldly, parallel or alternate reality dreams, the observing self was the same me/person within this particular, physical reality.
But one day, I realized that I could actually be another being/Being in these dreams–examples: another human, E.T., alien, animal, insect, Light Being, a God, etc., and even a different a gender, or no gender (since I had a male voice a few times [example dream recorded in post “Dream of Shouting to Goddess While Flying Through Wormhole“]); and since I wasn’t able to see my reflection at times, I didn’t truly know who I was.
Granted, I trust that, ultimately, from the highest, expanded Multidimensional perspective, we are ALL interconnected parts (neutral aspects and extensions) of the greatest WHOLE/THE ONE; there is “other” from a state of separation consciousness, and there is NO “other” from a state of Unity Consciousness.
And I trust that The Observer (Spirit within ALL/Unconditional Love essence) simultaneously (past, present, and future all at once) experiences interconnected Life via same, similar and/or different points (within space), CONTRAST/DUALITY/POLARITY, spiritual levels (Soul & Spirit growth and evolution), physical vehicles/bodies, light, beliefs, behaviors, emotions, feelings, perspectives, perceptions, desires, preferences, states of awareness/individual and Collective Consciousness, creativity, sound, expressions, actions (and no actions), densities, dimensions, realms, realities, worlds, Solar Systems, Galaxies, Universes (to include parallel and alternate), Multiverse, Omniverse, ETC.
Anyhoo, in this seemingly disturbing dream, I heard someone making sounds of quietly suffering in the night; and when I woke up (within the dream), I noticed in the shadows next to me, that these somewhat muffled sounds were coming from under a bulky blanket.
And at one point, additional sounds of painful suffering and aggressiveness thrusting amplified and pierced through the darkness, and I couldn’t take it anymore; so I interrupted what I intuitively knew was going on, by shaking the top of the blanket.
And sure enough, as the blanket opened up, I noticed one male get off the back of another (who appeared devastated); and when I confronted him, he reacted in an arrogant, insensitive, and aggressive manner, stating something to the effect that it wasn’t a big deal.
I also saw another younger, appearing male next to the passive male, who also looked afraid; I wondered if he, too, had been hurt by this asshole.
I became so filled with rage, that I went off on the arrogant guy shouting, “Reverse the roles!!!”; but then I woke up.
While still lying in bed, I initially felt so drained from having these unpleasant dreams, and asked Spirit within to reveal what needs to be known.
I also invited all the unknown/dark aspects within WHOLE self/Self to show themselves to me, rather than through so-called others.
I then closed my eyes and meditated in silence, darkness, and stillness, until I started astral traveling—seemingly flying through dark space with rays of light rapidly passing by—something I did more often and effortlessly years ago (immediately after closing my eyes), but experienced less often, ever since I lost interest after a while (since I didn’t seem to be getting anywhere).
But I’m reminded, as I’m typing this, that it’s not about the destination, but about the journey, something that Alina also shared within the above mentioned video.
So rather than be bored with astral traveling—though I used to be a bit fearful at first, and then super excited for a while—I just allowed myself to flow.
And shortly afterwards, I not only saw glimpses of what appeared to be a single eye looking at me, I also received an insight from within. [Side Note: I had a very vivid experience of seeing a single eye during a meditation (while lying in bed), recorded in post, “A Vision of One Eye in Center of Squares Within Squares Wormhole“]
Regarding this (and similar) “nightmares”: I could prolong the individual and Collective EGO’s BLAME GAME—that’s been going on throughout our Galactic and Universal history (due to forgetting, via separation consciousness, about our core essence of Unity Consciousness)—OR, I have the choice to end the blame game.
It’s WAY too easy to judge ANOTHER for doing what we perceive as wrong, bad, and even evil (within the CONTRAST/DUALITY/POLARITY of physical Life).
However, WHAT IF we did the exact same, hurtful thing (or worse) to another, whether in this lifetime or any another earthly and/or otherworldly lifetime(s)?
Well, being more aware of this high probability, we could continue to blame self/others and suffer, OR…
we can unconditionally forgive ourselves/others from acting in ways that stemmed from fear—not remembering our full-potential, Multidimensional, WHOLE self/Self.
I’m further realizing that when we become LOST within the BLAME GAME, nobody wins in the end; and many of our Galactic and Universal Soul Families have learned this the hard way, and I trust that they wish for humanity (and beyond) to fully wake up and remember our interconnected ONE essence.
So even though there have been times that I dreaded going to sleep again, due to certain nightmares—especially recently, probably due to the powerful moon energies resurfacing the DEEP old to be healed—I now fully embrace and welcome ALL of them (as well as physical reality experiences).After all, I’ve had much “worst” dreams (and real life experiences) than this, and I’ve learned many Life Lessons from them (and even gained profound wisdom).
I’m reminded that Life truly is about obvious blessings or blessings in disguise.
