You know who you are...

You've known even as a child. That somehow you were not like all the others. Like a mockingbird who lays its eggs in other nests to be raised by strangers, even family, though loved, felt somehow distant. You communicated easily with nature. Maybe wondered why you couldn't fly….or walk through things…or touch a friend and make their cut heal. It felt so natural. Now here we are…questioning our place in life…working to understand and support all who pass our way. Waiting for a time encoded in our cells.  But who are we? How many? What are our similarities and differences. Who can we share our thoughts with. Well, this is one place….I'd like to know my clan better. We are Starseeds. What will than mean?

Re: You know who you are...

I am definitely a Starseed. I have always felt different, I always wondered if others felt the same way I did when I was younger. I wondered if they saw that animals also had their own lives to live and that they too could feel emotions. I have wondered why I didn't have wings, couldn't walk through things, or heal others instantaneously when those all felt like natural things to do. I also feel that somehow I am in the wrong body, I feel stronger than my body, smarter than my body, more aware than my body… yet I am in my this body… and I wonder why? Why do I have this body when I feel distant from it?

Re: You know who you are...

That's what we're here to try and figure out, Mike. There's a reason why so many of us..though not enough, have shared these same experiences and feelings. Why we sometimes feel so alone even though we are loved and surrounded by friends. There's an aching to remember. It transcends age, sex, race, religion and culture. Sometimes I feel so sure and other times I feel like I'm crazy. That's why it helps to connect with others who have walked the same path…..

Re: You know who you are...

I see. Great… good… can't wait!!!

Re: You know who you are...

I can relate to the body thing. When I was a kid, I would sit for long periods and look at my hands, turning them over and looking at them again. It was amazing to be contained like this! It seemed so odd that I could fit in here! Well, the other kids never understood what I was talking about most of the time.

Hey! This pod makes me think of something in a new light just now! I've been drawing since I was 3 years old and the first thing I drew were canines (not people) and I have this serious affinity for canines (around 12 years old, I saw a documentary of wolves being hunted by heliocopter and you would have thought someone had shot me in the leg…I was wailing and crying. I was shocked at my behavior). There's no particular explanation for it (I'm from the woods, so we were in daily contact with cats, dogs, roosters, snakes, deer, spiders, bats, etc, but my connection seems to be innately to the canines…my little wolf brothers).

Hmmmm….I've also known & been fascinated for many moons by the Dogon Tribal story about Sirius B (the hidden sun in Canis Major, of course! I never thought about it being the Dog Star constellation before. HA!). The Dogon knew about Sirius B, but Western science didn't (…until the 1970s, I think).

Ok, before my epiphany, I was going to say that , as a kid, I feverishly drew this series of comics strips (books, I called them) about traveling through this space temper (time portal) and I was one of the few kids that was interested in time-space theory (still am).

gee…didn't know I was going to say that much. So, yeah, Mike…the body is…strange….

Re: You know who you are...

connected to the earth and shamanism as well,. sounds like Wolf might be one of your animal totems. Have you read anything about the wolf totem….could hold some info for you…

Re: You know who you are...

Wolf is the totem animal of the medicine of the north and Wind Clan according to Elder Garrett (Medicine of the Tsalagi/Cherokee). My sister says I'm an owl…I'd say a spider; but, there's no denying the call…

Re: You know who you are...

We all have different totems who are there for different things but there's usually one that follows us through life. Mine is a dragonfly though I know the eagle is pretty close too….I'm currently taking a bat essence..yes bat, though I don't think it's real bat, t(a friend sent it to me), to help the death/rebirth process I'm going through…..

Re: You know who you are...

Hello scribe sky, thank you for your interesting personal sharings. I can think of two possibilities about why you might have gotten so upset about the wolves. One is some past-life incident, in which you WERE one (and got shot in the leg, that stuff is often specific, those seemingly-casual metaphors.) 

The other is that  perhaps you identify on the Spirit level with a life-form that is wolf-like. I have a long-time beloved nonphysical friend whose body form I don't recall, but the head is a great golden CAT, like a housecat, but much bigger, and he is an upright form. There are many many life-forms represented by Starseeds, that we identify with from incarnations on other planets, nonphysical planets.

Re: You know who you are...

Thanks for the feedback, Bastet (is that like the cat?). I just saw the post today.

 ps. why 1Vector3, if I may ask?

Re: You know who you are...

…I've always felt different too…for the longest time I assumed everyone felt this way…then I realised most were *muggles*…

Re: You know who you are...

what's a muggie?

Re: You know who you are...

'Muggle' is from Harry Potter. A 'Muggle' is someone who doesn't have any magical powers.

Re: You know who you are...

Ever notice how the word “Muggle” resembles “smug?”  I just noticed that. 

Hmm.  We know who we are?  If we did, would we really be having this discussion?  We are seeking to know why we're different, perhaps?  Seeking others like ourselves?

Thanks so much for the invitation, Glynnda!  As I mentioned in my message to you, I'm not sure I'm a starchild, although I do believe that life on this planet came from someplace else.  I also believe it's happened many times over.  It ends and a new cycle begins.  There are some conifer seeds that require high heat to germinate.  Forest fires actually free them from their dormant state.  So, perhaps the various cycles of destructive behavior here create new life later.  Perhaps, in a way, global warming will give birth to a new creation as this evolution dies?  Just a thought.

I do know without a doubt that my niece is a starchild.  I knew it the moment my sister told me she was pregnant about 11 years ago.  Most of my family accepts that about her, too.  Even though they're firmly Lutheran.  There's just something about her…..

For me, I have always been different and rarely fit in.  I've learned to adapt and pretend to fit in.  Perhaps that's why I like to spend so much time alone.  It's hard to keep that face going.

I do believe somethin' is goin' on.  As I shed the skin my parents gave me, I morph into something/someone else.   I can touch a cut and it heals.  I am aware of things others don't seem to understand.  Am I really different?  Or do I simply finally accept the abilities that others haven't accepted in themselves?

Re: You know who you are...

Am I really different?  Or do I simply finally accept the abilities that others haven't accepted in themselves?

I struggle with this al the time. How different am I really? Am I just more in touch with my essential self than others….or am I essentially different because I'm carrying cosmic travelers with me?

Re: You know who you are...

…Karen…when I first met you here at gaia …I got star seed vibes…

  …some of us came in first to *cut a path* for those like your neice…kind of first wave…
…my 2 daughters and son are definitly…even before I awakened and knew of star seed I could see a difference in the kids that drew themselves to my daughters circles…

Re: You know who you are...

… yes, not like the others… exactly! or spending time as a kid staring in the mirror… not narcissisticly, just trying to figure something out… not getting it…

The starseed people?

Glynnda, awsome job creating this post! yes, let’s work…

so that’s a way one feels one is a starseed intrinsically, but I wonder what starseed does?

I guess the simple answer is “grow a star.” and I guess this pod is to help us do that together, and/or figure out how to do that seperately.

happy goings! happy comings!

Re: You know who you are...

Personally, I have always had a great calling to channel information….teachings….I have always “known” things and passed them along to family, friends and strangers. I've had visions and visitations throughout my life. Often felt as if “others” were with me, using my eyes to see…my vision changes when “the observers” step in to see what I am seeing. I have sometimes seen them, other times felt their energy within me. I have always felt a strong sense of destiny…of waiting for a train to arrive..that nothing really mattered until that time s I should do whaever I wanted, prepare and experience life. Now I'm sensing urgency. Both a compressing and expanding of time.

Re: You know who you are...

Ohhh, yeah!  But does that make us starseed?  Or as spiritual beings are we simply coming into our quickening and awakening to the awareness of our gifts and callings?

Re: You know who you are...

I didnt know until a few years ago but understand the reason for that. We are all starseed from the beginning! Some are called early for their gifts are needed and some are called when the time is right. Not long now until the matrix evolves and we are all needed now.

Re: You know who you are...

I believe that most of us are needed now. Not all of us but enough to possibly stop the self destruction of this planet, enough of us to show this world's society their flaws… we are probably from older generations of other planets who may have been sent to keep this world from being destroyed by the mistakes that the other generations failed to stop themselves.

Re: You know who you are...

yup! that could be it too. and I also wonder that just because I felt so different as I child, did I make up these stories to myself about being “”special” to bandage the pain of separatenness. Yet, I've had real experiences that would confirm we are not alone here…I guess only time will tell….

Re: You know who you are...

((Hugs Everyone!))

Thank You for the invitation, Glynnda!

Hmm…it's always a “hint” at what we are…I've come to think that The Plan, The Mission is not to be revealed until the time is right…not even to ourselves. The Call is going out, however…and I've noticed particularly since Fire The Grid event in July 2007 that soooo many of us are stepping forward and becoming visible…this includes Indigos and Rainbow Children and the like. Yes, the time is near…and like this pod, we are being gently pushed to join forces and unite with each other. (Get to know our team, lol)

As far as what we're doing in these bodies, and the weirdness we feel…LOL, we are Light beings and we know this! Yes, we always find it peculiar to be in such limited physical bodies.
BUT how else can we bring what we know to the rest of the Earth? We had to incarnate in bodies familiar to them, so that we can be heard.

And hahaha…wasn't too long ago, that deep in meditation that I was still trying to walk through walls, LOL!

Re: You know who you are...

i certainly hope you're right. I've spent my entire life waiting….for what I didn't know. Every job I had, every place I lived felt so temporary, like some day none of it would really matter….it was always about the experience….what did that do for me…how did it nest in me, what did I learn. And I always felt that I wasn't the only one owning my experiences. I even heard inner voices edging me towards experiences that I myself might not have he courage or inclination for…and I have certainly had incredible experiences…some good and some bad but never dull….I think they kinda like that! And we are definitely Lightbodies. I can't tell you how often strangers come up to me on the street, in a restaurant, at the gym and tell me I have a light around me and they felt they had to meet me….

Re: You know who you are...

Siiiiiiigh!
This sounds sooo familiar!!!
I can so relate to everything you've said. Right up till now…the same instincts…I've been living in this place for 2 years and still have stuff in boxes. It's like that wherever I go.
And a lot of people will look around and lock into my eyes when their backs are turned, and have told me when I questioned them…that they “felt me or sensed me” or that I'm really “bright” ;-)
Oh yes…all that STUFF doesn't really matter…The Experience does, Yes!!!
…ahh…so much I've learned too. Even more than this is all that we Instinctively KNOW.

I also am a Cancerian Sun with Pisces/Aries Moon (but Sag. Rising)…so I'm finding a lot of resonance with you =)

Re: You know who you are...

yes, and how many people stare at you when you pass…or respond to your presence in such a familiar way that they think they know you…or “you look really familiar.” I get that all the time. Strangers always think they know me.  It used to freak me out and when I would tell friends about it they thought I was nuts until they walked down the street with me and half the people would smile big and say hello (this is NY) and one might even just stop me to say hello.

Re: You know who you are...

LOL, I'm in NY too and I've gotten the stares since I was born…but many people have said that I “just don't look real”…like, wtf is that supposed to mean? Some “strangers” have actually reached out to touch me to see if I was really here. What is that all about? =)

I don't get the “you look familiar” thing because my looks make me stand out, not blend in. What I DO get is people congregating around me without knowing why. LOL…I already know that if I walk into ANY empty store, within a minute that store will be full of people. (had a few shop owners who begged me to just stand around, hahaha)

Re: You know who you are...

yup. same thing with me. people have both a “you look familiar” and “I look completely distinct” response to me..if that makes any sense. And yes, people always want to be near me and find ways to touch me. funny. and also, whenever I'm engaged in something other people are drawn to it. I was in Chinatown one time, buying little healing magnets on the street. He put them on me and a huge crowd gathered and wanted to buy them too. It was very freaky. I always wondered why this never happened to any of my friends.

Re: You know who you are...

HA! I wonder what THAT's about (I keep stuff in boxes, too when I move…feeling the temporary-ness of it all).

Re: You know who you are...

It seems the challenge in being “different” is overcoming the challenges presented by the physical world. It is such a dense place that we often forget our individual paths and our collective goal.I think one of our largest problems is that as a whole we lack the knowledge to teach our youth how to love and be emotionally stable. It is easy to lecture on financial success, but we all too often place emphasis on the outer, the financial. This law of greed has the power to throw us off track However, now more than ever we are starting to unite. I think we all feel something big coming. We all have bee presented with extreme life situations to speed up the process of growth. The question is, why the hurry?

Re: You know who you are...

i know who i am , no doubt about it , i am a light being , a soul , in a physical body , just see my blog and you will understand what i am saying , my question is , what to do in this world ? and how to do it ? and a lot more pratical questions in my daily life .

Re: You know who you are...

I myself have a slight idea who I am but I'm not sure yet. I constantly feel like I belong to a different body. I also believe that we have all been led here in one way or another to discover oursleves and others like us. To bring together our ideas and find out things about ourselves that we were unsure about.

Re: You know who you are...

well, I guess we're all about to find out one way or the other because it sure feels like we're coming up the appointed time….

Re: You know who you are...

Hi Everyone!

Beauuutiful energy in this pod… oh yes… drinking it like ambrosia… mmmmmm : D

er anyway, this bit about what we are to do– understanding, elevating understanding is of course step one. but to understand what to DO, for me, a good place is understanding what’s been DONE. we’ve reached the endstage, but how does a planet reach an endstage, without passing the middle-stage?

I think when history unfolds for us, we’ll have a better idea.

And whoever suggested that we, the ones who feel this energy are to play a role, because really who else could: You’re my hero. : D

Re: You know who you are...

I have experienced a lot of these things I know I am a starseed I plant seeds and reach ffor the stars i have a lot to learn so im dwelling here on earth until I find out hoe to get back there

Re: You know who you are...

I know the feeling…home doesn't feel like anywhere I've been yet….

Re: You know who you are...

Home… an odd word… it is defined in many ways… it could mean shelter… a place to stay for a night… a place to sleep… a place you constantly go… a place where you are most comfortable… a place for you and your stuff… a place where you belong, whether you feel that you belong or others feel you belong… maybe the reason we don't feel at home anywhere is because everywhere is our home… our bodies belong here and our minds belong everywhere… because… because we feel that we do not belong in one place, we feel that we belong everywhere… where we are needed and that is every place on this planet… but to be able to sense where you are most urgemtly needed is what we need to know… home… a place where we are needed, that is it's meaning to me.

Re: You know who you are...

I've written a novel, soul seeds. Actually, it was channeled to me (that's a whole 'nother story), though my agent isn't telling publishers that. In it, Addie Mae, the narrator of the story says at one point in the book: “I tried to figure if home belonged to a location or to certain people, or if I carried it around inside me like a full meal.”

So, which is it?

Re: You know who you are...

LOL…could also be that as Cancerians…the Crab…that we feel at home wherever we are, since we carry our homes with us on our backs ;-)

I think there's a paradox in feeling at home everywhere, and yet feeling as if we're not really home…or that we have Another Home. We're so weird. But I love you guys! =)

Re: You know who you are...

Exactly! That's why one doesn't “unpack” ~

Re: You know who you are...

Hello Gang!

It is great to see this group gathering…I am still “shy” about sharing anything on a forum of a personal nature, but I am glad to see the response.

I recognize some of you from being on my friends list and look forward to getting to know others of you…

I am listening to Gwen Steffani sing “Wonderful LIfe”and indeed it is!

Thanks, Glynnda, for the invitation…I was not aware until just now (Tuesday night) that the pod had been started…cool!!!

Hi, Will!!!

Love, Light and Laughter,
Starseed

Re: You know who you are...

I just started it yesterday. I just figured it was time to come out of the closet and see who else was in there with me. We have similiar experiences and feelings and I'm sure most of us struggle with what is true or not, the balance between our lives and what it means, if anything. So, it was time to turn on a light and start a dialogue and see where it leads us…..

Re: You know who you are...

Hello everyone!
I'm so happy to join this pod! I felt so drawn to it. You know, as a kid, I used to grocery shop with my mom and say hello to everyone… just walk around and say “hello”, every time I passed them. I felt such joy in seeing them and love towards them. Some people ignored me. Some people said hello back, some people gave me mean looks and acted annoyed. I did the same thing everywhere I went. My mom NEVER told me to not do it. I'm very grateful for that. However, the negative reactions I got from some people, got to me, and I eventually stopped reaching out, and became rather withdrawn. As time passed, I became more and more withdrawn, shy, reserved, not open, affected by other people very much in a very negative way, separate from everyone, etc… very insecure, depressed. My life experiences over the past several years have opened me up again to the the truth and I feel so grateful for that. I'm back to my true nature. I have no fears. I feel such love for everyone and everything, and for myself again,and feel so connected with the world. I hadn't felt that for a long time, and I hadn't even realized it. I'm very thankful for this pod. Thank you Glynnda so much for starting it!
With love,
Shell

Re: You know who you are...

I'm just happy I'm not alone out there and that so many of you share my joy in connecting. I believe we can do something wonderful together in time. We're here to build the energy and prepare.

Re: You know who you are...

Welcome, Shell. I'm glad to offer a place for us to congregate and share. I know my entire life I flet odd, and much of it was because of the extraordinary way people responded to me.

Re: You know who you are...

I guess home could be where one feels most comfortable… where they can go to meditate… go to rest or sleep… without being afraid of others… a place where one feels safe… many call a certain place as their home while others call a general area , such as the sea, their home… others don't feel comfortable anywhere or not for very long… maybe because they feel needed in a certain place for only so long before they are needed somewhere else, or they are searching for where they are most comfortable… home is a place where one is most comfortable because it is familiar to them… where one knows that nothing can hurt them… either psychologically or physically… this is another look at what home could be.

Maybe this helps… maybe it doesn't… home is what you make it to be… whether a place or everywhere… whether here or there… whether you are comfortable or not… whether you are needed or not… home is what you make it to be.

Re: You know who you are...

I just wanted the group to have access to a link to a blog I just posted on What Are Starseeds?  And also to The Starseed Quiz. Will suggested that I post this here.

What Are Starseeds?

http://starseed.gaia.com/blog

The Starseed Quiz

http://home.earthlink.net/%7Epleiadesx/starquiz.htm

Re: You know who you are...

Hi All…I can't remember where I found this but thought I'd share it.

For those who know they are starseeds, this is a ONE TIME ONLY activation process. For those who are not sure, this process will allow them to activate themselves. At this time, a lot of starseeds are not activated. Their energies are necessary to help anchor love and light to Mother Earth.

         This is a 12-minute process:

       1. Sit down, close your eyes, and start a series of three inhalations and exhalations. Inhale Light through the top of your head and down into your body. Exhale all of the stress and worries you have, down through your feet and on down to the earth for about one minute.

       2. Place your left hand, palm up, on your left thigh. Your right hand should touch the area one or two inches below your navel. (This is an energy vortex.)

       3. Ask the Earth Angels to come to activate this vortex center for you. Stay in this area for about four minutes.

       4. Move your right hand up one or two inches above the navel (another energy vortex) and ask the Earth Angels to activate that area for you. Keep your hand there for about five minutes.

       5. Now place a hand, palm up, on each thigh and ask the Earth Angels to send a confirmation that you have been activated. Wait about two minutes to receive it.

Now that you have been activated, you are ready to actively participate with the rest of the starseeds in doing rituals and in clearing and balancing your chakra systems. You are asked to stay attuned to learn other ways to help Mother Earth and the population, before the earth changes occur. Love and light,
Bil El Masri

Self Multi-dimensional Energy Alignment

    As has been explained in Sheldan Nidle’s recent updates, we, the Starseeds, and the rest of Earth’s population, have been aligned energetically through our multidimensional chakra system. However, due to Mother Earth's precarious situation as she labors to give birth to an ascending fourth-dimensional planet, the Galactic Federation scientists, the Angelic Hierarchies, the Elohim and Time Lords have had to prevent Mother Earth from birthing prematurely. To slow her down, they have used new energy grid patterns and a different time frequency hologram. The direct result is that our multidimensional chakra alignment was disrupted. Consequently, many starseeds experienced physical, emotional and mental blocks that have caused pain and discomfort. To help us to realign and facilitate the work of the Earth’s Angelic realm, a self-healing technique was channeled through my healing guides. It is a simple method that anyone can do to help realign their energies.

    The following is the self-healing method, which you can do while seated anywhere:

       1. Sit down. Slowly inhale and exhale three times and wait until you feel quiet inside. Then proceed to ask the Earth Angels of Mother Earth to help you realign your chakra energies.

       2. Put your right hand two inches below your navel (over an energy vortex) and open your left palm up over your left thigh. You will start to feel energy running through your right hand. Wait until you cannot feel the energy anymore, then remove your right hand, while keeping your left hand as is for the entire process.

       3. Move right hand two inches above the navel over another energy vortex and repeat above steps. Remove right hand.

       4. Place right hand over the energy vortex above heart. Repeat above steps. Remove right hand.

       5. Place right hand over throat, where another energy vortex exists. Repeat above steps.

       6. Place right hand over the energy vortex between eyebrows. Repeat above steps. Thank the Earth Angels for their help.

    You will experience a release of energy from every energy vortex (chakra) and, when you finish, you will feel clearer, lighter and more balanced. Repeat this simple self-healing exercise every time you feel any kind of discomfort.

    Love and light,
    Bil El Masri

Re: You know who you are...I'm a work in progress

Hi loves, I've absolutely enjoyed every one of these posts, I'm home! Don't we love feeling one and relating to so well, I absolutely do.
For me, being brought up as a Catholic (not full on) helped me to become aware of 'other', I remember being in a play as an angel at about 8 or so and feeling one with everything walking outside feeling I could talk to animals and it felt incredible.  I then became so aligned with St Francis of Assisi and the archangels, thought JC was pretty cool as well, the rest of it did not vibe with me at all.
I relate to many of the starseed 'symptoms' and even without that I've always felt left of centre, from the time I got a telescope at 7 or 8 looking for UFOs, memories now from a very young age of living in worlds where you could see other planets on the horizon and dreams of looking at the stars and seeing pictures as in the constellations, fear of the moon being so big, asking all the questions that no one could answer: why am I here, why don't people ask those sort of questions, are we alone, all before high school. 
Mum died when I was 18 and that really started my need to know in a huge way.  I'd learned astrology in a basic 'star sign' way at school, plus palmistry and then I took on astrology by learning it, reading Seth Speaks at 19 blew the lid off my psyche, I was never the same again after reading that book, it totally changed the way I saw everything.  Its only now with law of attraction becoming the next big thing (yay that people should desire a better life and make it so, struggle sucks!) that much of what Seth spoke about (creation of reality, quantum stuff) that it all makes more sense. 
I have a hunger to know that is insatiable.  I feel so old and yet so young.  I don't look my age at all and constantly get people saying “Do I know you?” and I say “Yes I'm on the cover of Vogue!”.  Passionate about animals, plants, bugs, always have been.  Healing hands even before I did reiki.  The list goes on but I know most of you relate.
It is so gorgeous to be amongst kindred spirit, so glad I found this sanctuary!
Hugs
Lise xx

PS. I have a question for you all: I still don't know what I want to do with my life, nothing seems to fit, I feel like I have something to do and yet I drag along doing mundane medical secretarial work.  Its been great lately as I've seen everything from 180 degrees and love it, but ultimately I so yearn to be in something I am passionate about with beauty, creativity, contribution, travel.  Just wondering what vocations/careers you are in and has it been easy?

Re: You know who you are...I'm a work in progress

Hi Lise–

Yes, it is all too familiar. And though I spent a large part of my career in advertising, I'm back to square one, trying to decide what to do with my life. I stumbled through a successful career but never had a goal or objective. My abilitiy to connect with people, my intuition and creative nature was really my success…but the more I followed my heart, the less I was able to work in a usual biz environment. I straddle the fence now, working with companies committed to making a positive impact on the planet, writing, but basically it all still feels somewhat empty as I just don't resonate with anything except something on the horizon. This is course, makes me crazy as I have felt like a bird flying over the ocean looking for a place to land my entire life….I always envied my friends who know what they wanted to do and liked their job….but the idea of a job just always felt so contrived….and I never fit anywhere…always the oddball….a beloved oddball able to make people feel good and bring light but never one whoh could stay anywhere too long…

Re: You know who you are...I'm a work in progress

Hello Lise, thank you for your wonderful sharings. I am responding to your P.S. about your work. This is the “song of the Starseeds.” I hear it ALL THE TIME from folks I encounter: “I know I have something important to do, I feel a strong sense of dedication and mission, but I have no idea who what why when and where!” One of my friends describes it as “I been sitting ready on this bus a loooooong time. WHEN IN HECK IS IT GOING TO LEAVE?”  My own description is “I agreed long ago to be in a play. NOW WHEN IS SOMEONE GOING TO GIVE ME THE bleeping SCRIPT!!!”

Well, the good news is that 2008 is bus-departure/script-arriving-in-the-mail time. I know some that have been “launched” already. Others are juuuuuust getting their true work, for which their whole lives have been preparation. By the end of the year, your work, your Divine Work, will be clear, and I feel confident this will be true for just about all of us.
 
But we have not been just “marking time.” It has not been wasted time. We have been in the final preparations, becoming as physically and emotionally healthy as possible.

I said more about this matter in another post here.

 Please read that!!

Your post is in the middle of a long thread and I am doing a Reply to Post and sometimes those get overlooked, so please let me know you got this, OK?

Here's to our synergy, everyone here!

Namaste, Rev. O.M. Bastet

Re: You know who you are...I'm a work in progress

Thanks, OM for reminding us we have not been wasting time. Sometimes it feels that way to me….it's true I've learned a lot and the person I am now is ready for a lot more than the person I was ten years ago….and I've had wonderful life experiences…..and some not so wonderful…but sometimes the craving to “get there”, wherever that is, blinds me to the truth of the moment I am living in and could be learning from. I need a kick in the pants every once in a while to be reminded what a great journey it is in itself…..

Re: You know who you are...I'm a work in progress

Vector,

Thanks for your post…that “song of the Starseeds” I have been singing for a very long time and am still in a holding pattern…

…I have Tsalagi blood…my totems are Red Hawk by day…White Owl by night…

Re: You know who you are...

My great, great, great, great grandmother (on my Mom's side of the family) was an Ojibway (a part of the Huron tribe), I think, who lived in the southern-most part of Canada on the shores just below where the Detroit River meets Lake Erie.  Her father was Chief and Medicine Man of the tribe.  Her husband (who smuggled her out of the community in a canoe under furs) was a man by the name of McCormick, who had been commissioned by the British Monarch to set up treaties and trade with the Indians back in the 1770's.  For many years the old chief was on the war-path with this McCormick fellow - because he 'stole' his daughter.  Even burned them out a few times.

As a child my “Indian” ties were very strong - most of my invisible playmates were Indians, and long before I ever had TV to watch (to actually know anything about Indians), I was building tepee's and lodges from long dried reeds and old blankets.  I have no idea what my totem would be, though.  I've always been fascinated by White Owls, but I have an almost insatiable affinity to Unicorns - (I collect them) and an alternate nick I use in other places is UnicornLady. I think perhaps when they actually roamed the Earth, I may have had something to do with them at the time. :)  It possibly might have been on a different planet, because I've always felt we all had the ability to fly and somehow lost it, although even now I have the occasional glorious flying dream.

Re: You know who you are...

Ooooh Unicorns…me too GemStar…
But this was when I was growing up (I was sooooo much more psychic then)…my walls in my room were covered with beautiful pictures of Unicorns and other far-away worlds…mostly I was attracted to lavender and purple skies (classic Starseed according to the checklist, lol)

My stab at my genealogy pointed at being descended from Carib Indians…though I denied that heritage when I read that they were cannibals, LOL =)

Re: You know who you are...

my entire room was lavender as a child…though instead of unicorns, I had and still have a powerful connection to of all things insects..primarily dragonflies and beetles….

Re: the lavender connection...

I have had several bedrooms painted lavender, as well as once my entire apartment was painted lavender, except for kitchen and bathroom.

I love the fragrance as well - wear it all the time - and spray it on my pillows at night - it works magic to relax and have pleasant dreams.  ~ :-) ~

Re: the lavender connection...

Oh of course! I forgot about that! Yes!
I love to burn lavender oil….mmmm…

And I love dragonflies!
I think as Starseeds and such that we tend to like Sparkly thinks that twinkle like the stars ;-)

Re: You know who you are...

It's cool, Resurrected ~

I think the “integral” approach (very popular on this board; I had to download a white paper to see what everybody was talking about) would have you mindfully embrace your full cultural components.

I have embraced the incongruent nature of being Angolan & Portuguese and Tsalagi/Piscataway & Irish (hmmm….people defined my mother as “exotic”) and the Gaelic name of my Irish ancestors means “slaughterer.”

Lessons and keys and everywhere….

Re: You know who you are...

Scribe Sky,
I'm still not sure…this is how I ended up here at Zaadz/Gaia! Doing genealogy research! Still unsure of my true roots, but I am having fun along the way, exploring each possible root…and most certainly integrating each one! =)

We make a good team…cannibals and slaughterers, LMAO. Hehhee, I'm sure each had their good points and assets!

Re: You know who you are...

Pretty interesting Starseed blog and quiz. Thank you. I scored 75. Some of the questions I was unfamiliar with though, left them at “no's”- I may have received a little higher score…this whole Starseed concept is new to me; however, I very much believe in reincarnation, and don't believe in death as an end, instead as a transition, and feel connected with everyone and everything, including the universe/stars/planets. I believe we are all one, we are all divine parts of the divine whole, and what's most important is love and kindness and awareness.

Re: You know who you are...

Greetings, Glynnda, I am responding to your post of thurday at 7:13 AM (time as displayed to me) and the link to that post is http://pods.gaia.com/starseeds/discussions/view/236586#237985 in case anyone wants to save scrolling time!! :)

Re the ONE TIME ONLY Activation Technique. I am not sure whether you meant this requires only one repetition, or it is a person's one and only chance to get activated. I don't believe the system can possibly be set up with only one chance. Each of us is too precious for that. I blieve our Larger Self, for each of us, is in charge of activation, and will do so in the right way at the right time, from an external resource or simply from internal timing. You have called attention to one such external possible resource, but many exist. Many NEED to exist, as we are so diverse in lifestyles and cultures and geographical locations!!!!

One activation technique used en masse in the mid-80's was simply the words, read or heard, WAKE UP THE TIME IS NOW. That might still work.

Also would like to mention that if there were mass disruption of chakras as per the scenario described, IMHO the fix would not depend on one bit of info channeled by one person's guides, as far as I can tell. Doesn't make sense to me. And I don't resonate with the rest of that story, either. Just my personal response.

Blessings and thanks!
OM Bastet

Re: You know who you are...

I have to strongly agree with what you said here, OM:  “Also would like to mention that if there were mass disruption of chakras as per the scenario described, IMHO the fix would not depend on one bit of info channeled by one person's guides, as far as I can tell. Doesn't make sense to me. And I don't resonate with the rest of that story, either.”

I think there is a very real psychologically damaging danger here when people begin to lean on specific “energies”, be they with regard to alignment of chakra's, or for the alignment of their ideologies.  I remember reading in some of the Alice Bailey books, what the Master D.K. had provided, that even those who are not aware, and may never be aware, that they are ”Masters” are still very effective in their aligning with the over-all “Plan” for the planet, and this galaxy.  While some of these individuals would have been, or are still, working in the “religious” or “spiritual” fields, many others are working in business, creating situations for business to evolve into what will be required as all of the other changes occur.  No particular area of concern has been, or will be, left out, right down to the guy who collects our garbage.

There is no guarantee, regardless of how good the channel may be, that the words coming through from “spirit” are exactly what was meant to be conveyed, and much of this is, or can be, coloured by the previous religious upbringing, experiences, readings, etc. of the person channeling the information.  Any channeler worth their salt will always provide that your “will” is your's, to do as you see fit, and further to be lead by your own Soul in the end, to create your own reality.  Those that dictate certain things must be done in a certain way for the correct outcome are creating exactly what so many in mainline religious organizations fear - a cult.  Most of what is going on will remain “occult”, meaning hidden, and probably for very good reasons.  That is quite a bit different from “a cult”, where the main focus is to create a “following”.

Certainly, we need leaders.  In that sense though, true leaders are generally chosen by those individuals, collectively, who resonate with that persons vibration.  True, some leaders push their way forward, breaking trust with the natural process of leadership:  the end products of that type of leadership generally are much different than the leadership that is heart-centered, and powered by higher vibrational yearnings.  This applies whether the leadership is for a country or a spiritual movement, or anything between.

So, if the instructions resonate, and you can see that the individual providing this is coming from a place of heart-centered, clear-headed thinking, and lives that in their life, and it's working for them, then certainly move forward - but only at a pace that fits into YOUR life.  Don't be pressured into thinking that there is such a strict deadline (2012 comes to mind here) that we all must have all of our “I's” and “T's” crossed or we will be left behind.  That is falling into the same trap or pressure that many organized (especially Fundamentalist) religions use, with regard to the urgency to be “saved” lest you miss out on the “rapture”.

I guess, in a way, this is the reason that I have stayed in the background (out there) for so long.  I believe that working quietly and consistently will create more than enough momentum toward the changes that are, inevitably, coming.  Consciousness creates, and as it creates, things evolve - we cannot help but move forward.

Blessings,

Re: You know who you are...

I agree with you. I will read everything and listen to everyone but it's most important we listen to our own intuition about everything here. We are all in very uncharted territory and I think it's important  to stay open, grounded and well….happy. Everyone channels information differently and needs different vibrations and frequencies. It's only by really grounding yourself and having a clear sense of self that I think you can take on the more cosmic energies. I have to work really hard to stay grounded as I naturally like being up with my friends but the more time I spend with their energy, the harder it is for me to live in this world and do what I have to do…uh.. like make a living.  I was born and I am human (part of me anyway) and that has certain responsibilites. So, balance is key. If what we are tapped into is real, I want to be as sane as possible when it comes to taking action…and in the meantime, i”m happy to find others that have shared my journey and am grateful for the opportunity to express what I want to and keep to myself what's not ready to hit the spotlight…

Re: You know who you are...

Wow. I scored an 89. I'm a bit unnerved…

I think I'll re-test…


Oh shit!!!

I went into it with the intention of creating the most genuine, pure result and I got a 96!!

Re: You know who you are...

Re: You know who you are...

Well…this, combined with several other factors in my life, has me feeling like I want to jump out of my skin.

Anyone else living in this very uncomfortable condition?

Plus, this all sounds like yoga, and since I already have my pre-concieved ideas of what yoga means to me, I'm having difficulty following …

Re: You know who you are...

you're too much in your head. happens to me all the time. do something to shift your consiousness….best to walk in nature. take a swim, go somewhere you've never been before…anything to get you out of your head and back into your spirit….even smell something new and pleasant…it all helps…..

Re: You know who you are...

Hi Michele!

You are definitely not alone…welcome!!!  I will not add anything as you have already received some feedback…

Just breathe and be…would be all that I will add.

Love, Light and Laughter,
Starseed

Re: You know who you are...

Michele, metaphors like that are actually literal. So – and of course you don't have to share this here– what does it feel like, literally? Possibly moving into a different life-form body? MOST OF US HERE HAVE ANOTHER LIFE-FORM BODY WE RELATE STRONGLY TO, whether it be anything recognizable, or not, and most of them are NOT related to earth life-forms. This is, of course, IMHO, and I have not looked at the quiz, but if I were designing a quiz I would put on it Have you ever felt that your human shape is not your “natural” shape? – or Do you sometimes imagine having another kind of body –not necessarily any earth life-form–that feels natural and beautiful to you?

And, again, I'm with Will, and would say mebbe you are the only one suprised by your results….

And why “jump” out of your skin? What's the significance of that particular verb?

And, it sounds as if you are in some fear? If so, this might be an excellent time to learn about that fear, look at it, decide whether you would like to keep it or not, maybe it will prompt you to seek more information of some kind.

Suggesting some topics for introspection for you, not necessarily to share.

Trying to be helpful, respectful, and caring, my Friend,

Re: You know who you are...

Hello All

I guess I am a starseed and didn't know it! First I had to do a little research and find out what a starseed is. Starseed's blog was very helpful. Thank you Starseed.

I originated in the Pleiades where my Teacher was given to me. This was reveled to me in a vision. At the time I didn't know what the Pleiades was. In the vision we were singing a beautiful song about it- our home. Later I found it in the book of Job and could look it up only to find its a star system, and then I realized I already knew that.

Any way in the vision I saw many of the places we had incarnated together. It was like watching a movie on fast forward. They were all other planets than Earth. There was much more in this vision which perhaps I'll share later. I've been on Earth for at least the past 2 incarnations. Beyond that I don't know.

My Teacher is guiding me now in a more overt way because I have come to recognize his existance. But what the grand plan is I have no idea.

Thank you Glynnda for inviting me to this pod. How did you know?

Blessings to All

Re: You know who you are...

Frequencies attract each other. I'm holding a frequency and seeing who hears it….

Re: You know who you are...

I do, Glynnda.

Quietly joining this circle. Listening, hearing what you all have said is…

indescribable.

Too full to speak,

Re: You know who you are...

take your time…and welcome…thank you for your presence…

Re: You know who you are...

Greetings joy,
This is a Reply to Post in a long thread, so please let me know you got it.

In my experience, there are more Starseeds here from the Pleiades than anywhere else. There are a fair number of Arcturians, and a sprinkling of folks from Orion. My current characterization of the Orion folks is they are the Relationship experts. That was my experience from a “trip” “out there” TO Orion one time, also. Orion folks often end up being relationship counselors, Tantra teachers, etc. they are awesome; I have the utmost respect for their wisdom and expertise on that subject of relationships.

I know there are also plenty of Starseeds from places that we don't have names for, and from places I am forgetting at the moment, Oh, I think Polaris is one place. Maybe others can contribute to this list; a fascinating list it would be!!

Myself, I know I have Pleiadian experiences, but I have been told by several perceptive folks over the years that I am primarily from “very very far away,” someplace I have not remembered yet. I “remember” several different bodies/lifeforms I have been, and several different planets, but none are the ET PHONE HOME place for me.

Thanks for sharing your experiences and about your vision. Waycool.

Blessings,
Rev. O.M. Bastet

Re: You know who you are...

Yeah I have always known I was different. Im an intersteller earthdweller starseed traveler. Except I havent traveled anywhere. Im focused on the dwelling on earth  and trying to just create a beautiful world around me and since we are silling Im a little scared of the energy and I feel like if I meditate long I am going to exit my body and that is scary being it will be my first time since coming here. we are One. The light surrounds us, heals us and allows us to heal others.

Re: You know who you are...

all of us Starseeds need the earth. its energies ground us, feed us, support us, love us. Living in NY, I have to leave and get deep into a wilderness experience every once in a while so to reconnect with the earth and both release energy and be given more fuel for my journey. Since you have such a strong connection to the earth, maybe you should meditate with earth energies first and then allow them to take you where your energy naturally wants to go. All at your own pace.  I love earth energies and am happiest to be with them. It's a great balance…

Re: You know who you are...

…I am from outside this local universe…and I came through the Arctuian stargate…

   …it's true the are many *donor* worlds that are not named in books on the subject…

  …Andromeda is a sister galaxy to the Milky Way and is involved with the ascesion also…

Re: You know who you are...

I agree with Glynnda about staying 'grounded” and how important that is to maintain our balance. 
Only in the last year have I realized that I have had other earth incarnations. Prior to that I had thought that this was my first.

I agree with Will and Vector that there are many from many different regions.  I posted a blog today with an article by James Gilliland. I know that we each have our own “info” and perceptions.  James ascribes that earth was seeded by 12 different tribes (not sure where he gets that or if he is taking that from the OT or what…)

I definitely believe that no one group or individual has the entire blueprint or all the puzzle pieces…at least not in 3rd or 4th dimension anyway.

Just my thoughts.

I love this little pod…it is the first time that I have really felt comfortable sharing on this level.

Re: You know who you are...

just back from a meditation and feeling the energy of this pod. rolling around in it so it wil rub off on me and venture into my dreamstate this evening. sweet dreams, Starseeds.

Re: You know who you are...

thanks will for inviting me here… as a child, i would often attribute not fitting in to the fact that I was always changing school, and that I wasn't white like most of the others… but these were not the only factors which kept me feeling like i was in a bubble, apart from everyone else… as i grew i learned to “pass” as those who fit in, but i never could. it's good to be at peace with that,

Re: You know who you are...

Hey everyone,

I was just catching up on some old emails today and came across this newsletter that was sent to me a couple of weeks ago. This is only a portion of the newsletter but I just had to share this part as it seemed to coincide with this topic so well so I hope everyone enjoys it. Contact info to sign up for the newsletter is included at the bottom if anyone feels interested in subscribing. I hope this answers some questions about what our missions are. It seems pretty clear that we are here as Ambassadors/Emissaries of Love.

Pathway of Peace Global Messenger - March 17, 2008

COSMIC CATARACTS

As received by Gillian MacBeth-Louthan

When we were in spirit all of our choices seemed so easy, so effortless.  We knew we would make the highest choice with no problem - we knew that every choice had a divine counterpart.  When we came into this solid aspect of earthen divinity, we all forgot we got 3-D planetary amnesia.  We became holographiclly challenged, limited, and fearful.  We took baby steps, not the giant steps we had promised the Creator. 

On the bus to Earth, the driver spoke of ice cream, chocolate, sex, and all the tangible tasty goodies we would experience.  The driver told us ‘you will forget from where you have just come, you will forget how to just be, you will get  tangled up in the earthen web of forgetfulness and you will feel abandoned, hopeless and alone'.  He then said with a smile, ‘there will come a day when all of Heaven will sing with a great joy as you remember once again who you are and why you are on Earth'. 

We were all so excited about coming to Earth, feeling emotions, feeling love, kissing and tasting all that Earth had to offer we did not hear the driver with our hearts, we did not listen.  Therefore, we all got off the beautiful yellow bus and came into this world screaming and kicking naked and vulnerable.  Some of us stayed, for the duration some said heck no and went back home right away. 

we could still remember pretty good until we were about five or six years old.  We could still see our angels and guardian, they were our invisible friends and we played with them and talked with them and made mom set a place for them at the dinner table.  Very soon cosmic cataracts began to form.  Daily life demanded more and more from us slowing down our memory showing us the so-called limitations of this planet.  Our heart grew sadder as we began to forget who we were and our promise to earth and the creator.

Those of us that volunteered to come to earth were the masters, the light ones. the ones who volunteered to usher Earth into the next step of her journey toward stardom.  Some of us held tightly to the little remembrances, the little pieces of Heaven that still lived in our heart.  Our visions were so strong and such a priceless treasure no one could take them from us.  We held them silently knowing that one day they would be birthed in fullness. 

We were coached and taught by nature and Mother Earth her self.  We talked to the animals; they listened and heard our cry.  The flowers knew our very thoughts, the wind held us like a loving mother.  The stars would send down reminders of who we were as they fell from the heavens for our eyes only. We knew to wish upon them with all of our heart and soul.  The other children of Earth knew that we were different.  They hurt us with their words and their sticks and their stones pushing us further into ourselves, pushing us further away from the real reason we incarnated.  People of earth did not seem to want us here and made no qualms about letting us know. We would lock ourselves in the bathroom and look deep into the mirror looking beyond the flesh into our soul eyes asking the reflection that stood in front of us ‘who are you and where am I ?'

the body seemed as a burden and not as a temple and a sacred place of light.  Many of us felt like a stranger in a strange land - we just wanted to go home.  We didn't want to play this game of being human any more - it hurt to be human.  It hurt to feel all the sadness and all the pain of everything and everyone around you.  We all had been born as empaths - we felt to the very core of our being.  Our parents and our peers just saw it as moodiness and thought we would outgrow it but we never did.  So we went deeper and deeper into ourselves, hiding from our feelings, hiding from our humanness and hiding from what made us special.

 For years we did everything we could to forget - we just wanted to forget that we were different.  No matter how we tried to drown the light within us the flame never died.  In fact the older we got, the more our light shone through all cloaking devices.  We couldn't hide from who we were any longer.  We were beginning to remember again.  We were remembering that we had a very important mission, a promise and an assignment to do.  Over and over and over again we heard these words echo in our head and heart - Just love, just love these people.  Show them love.  Remember to love.  Once in a while we would venture out in the real world.  We would try so hard to show others what was truth, what was light, what was love as we knew it, as we remembered it.  Our words and actions would fall upon deaf ears and a blind heart.  They were not ready to hear truth - to see light - to embrace love.  And they let us know it very loud and very clear. 

Along our way the Universe would send signs in the form of angels and beautiful visions to ease the pain of humanness.  As we got older our gifts began to amplify.  No matter how hard we worked to push them away they would break through the crystalline stage of dormancy and demand more and more from us pushing us closer to the light. 

The visions would tell us that we were not alone on earth, the visions would tell us about truths that would be unveiled and revealed.  The visions would speak of a time that we would be the light leaders and lead the people of earth back to first light.  A time when every face we look at would reflect the light that lived in their hearts.  A time when our heart would become a catalyst and ignite the dormant spotlight in everyone we met. 

We held tightly to these visions knowing they were true.  They were given to us to nurture, to love and hold us, until it was time for them to be birthed in the now.  In that time of waiting we reunited with our own divinity, we cultivated our own light and we learned how to love this human body.  Day by day we get a glimpse of what is to come.  We sit anxiously awaiting the promises of a loving Creator.  We know now that none of our journey was in vain because it was all part of the sentence of light.  We were the nouns, the pronouns, the verbs and the adjectives.  We know now that we really never forgot, that all was an illusion.  We know now that light lives in every molecule of existence always.

Let's just say , I really am not sure who I am.
I know that I am me , and I was give a gift called love , many years ago.
I know that everything I touch , I make it radiate , with my love.
Nature , is my true love , this is were , I belong.
When I get mad , or when I stop or cut myself off with natue. Things happen.
Storms , accedents , I could not even begin to tell you what happens.
When I am calm , when I am Just being me , and doing what I love to do.
The heavens are happy.
Lets' just say , I am me , and I listen to the earth , and I have an old elm tree , that is there to listen , and guide me everyday.
I am me .

LoriAnn,

I know exactly what you mean =)
Whenever I'm upset, there are thunderstorms and rain.

The most pissed I have ever been in my Life…was when Hurricane Katrina hit.

Though I wonder if it's just us feeling Nature's Fury…not that we're causing it.

Re: You know who you are...

…calm down Res !…
   …don't get excited …think happy thoughts…

 …it's not nice to mess with Mother Nature !…



  …my *memories* of who I Am are not linear but come come in clumps or clusters like a bunch of balloons …or block  flashes of light that filter down later  and are not visual memories but more like frequencies and vibrations…

Re: You know who you are...

LOL. I DO think happy thoughts!
I get Moody…like my Cancerian planet The Moon…changeable ;-)

I experience in my own little corner of Reality the Microcosm of the Macrocosm.
There was Hurricane Katrina, and I had my own Hurricane within my household…at that time, my home was burglarized and I was hit in the back of the head by the coward.

I knew something was going to rock my world and braced myself as well as I could.

As far as past lives, I only know of being a Scribe, etching in clay…and a warrior…these skills have stayed with me, is how I know.

“im me”

Re: You know who you are...

Hi,

It is interesting to read about the others experiences…

I was always different…I always knew it in my heart…and some of it  may sound like I was a prodegy, but there was more than that…I was excelent at everything I would start without even trying…and most of the time I felt like I wasn't even there, I would sit in the class bored to death, whishing I coud stay in the sun and hug the trees, I would read once the material and I could remeber it for the tests…I could paint, play music, sing, being  a gymanst without any effort…but there was more…

At night I would dream that I died all kinds of death or that I fly and see the world and no pain, just peacefull hapiness would surround me. As a child I was certain I was caught between 2 worlds and I always wanted out, but there was always something that kept calling me back…I had several near death experiences and once I was able to fly out of my body while walking down the street. I tried to tell people, but I could see, no one would listen or understand…

Since then, I became an ordinary person that has to forgive what it was lost and go back to where it started…this is my misssion…

Re: You know who you are...

…welcome to the sanctuary Oris…

…sounds like you are a typical starseed…

…what other inclinations do you have ?…you can learn much of yourself by looking inward…simple things like …what attracts you…what intrigues you…what jumps out and Grabs your attention…

…you will find many others like yourself here…and many that are willing to help you…

Re: You know who you are...

Hi oris,

Re: You know who you are...

Hi,

I am not sure I understood  everything you said, but clarify a few things for me. How you were as a normal human being…Are you on a mission? The arrivers are they humans or something else? So, what are you? Your profile doesn't reveal much…so its hard to say…

Yes, you're right I am aware that Spirituality and especially Religion are directly influenced by the level of understanding and knowledge of that group at that point in time. I am also aware that the lack of understanding of the religious practices has condoned those religions to slow death.

On your last point, no I don't feel on vacation at all..like I said I lost the clarity and now I am fighting to get it back.

Re: You know who you are...

Re: You know who you are...

Hi BP,

I understand to some degree what you're saying, but I can tell that you're very vague also.

There is a lot of controversy recently about the Crystal generation, as they are supposed to be a lot closer to the awareness/awakening stage as you called it. Are you referring to them?

On the matter of religion, I was a little vague…I believe that we define Religion differently…I refer to the practice itself, the gestures, the songs, every little detail that actually goes into a sermon…if you want.

As these practices are handed down from one generation to the next I believe they lost their spirit, as their meaning got lost…I'll try to explain…some laws are not explained thoroughly, but the principle is that you have to apply the spirit of the law and not try to find a loophole. The same applies here…the meaning of the details of a sermon got lost, because their meaning was not grasped by the next generation.

The way you explained your own experience and I might be wrong on this… sounds like Matrix deja vu….in case you're not familiar, it is a movie…

On you last point, I agree 100%, in hindsight, I already feel that way…but also, while on vacation, if it doesn't go your way you have 2 choices, enjoy what you have and make lemonade from lemons, or sit down and cry and blame the travel agent…

One personal question, I believe I got a better hang of the way you express yourself, it is somehow like a code…is there a reason why you talk like that?

Re: You know who you are...

One short clarification…your observation about the Buddhist vs Christian religion is very accurate…and I believe the reason for it is that the Asian race has understood and incorporated in their culture the beauty of expanding the awareness in a form of practical meditation, by improving one step at the time each detail, each movement. The Christian or western world took a different approach, they have expanded their knowledge and understanding in many disciplines…Kinda of the outward vs inward development of the human psyche.

Too wrap this comment with my previous one about Religion…the Christian religion has lost the reverence during the centuries, that the Buddhist conserved.

Re: You know who you are...

Hi oris,

Re: You know who you are...

Hi BP,

Today, I am not in a very spiritual mood…I am in a cynical/sarcastic mood…so stay away…But I had an epiphany and the part about mistakes resonated with me…But, I'll get back to you…

Re: You know who you are...

Thank you Will…for making me feel special…haha…just joking.

On a more serious note, I am not sure what you mean by looking inward…what attracts you? you mean from memories?

I was taught to be a perfectionist, so it's a hard habit to get rid off, it comes with  a lot of mental noise. Currently, I am trying to drawn the noise and enjoy the silence…hard to do…the emotional drain from the negativity that the human race spreads around, its hard to ignore…

I am learning when I bounce ideas by others, only because I believe that my ideas are limited by what I have been trained to see…

I have this theory…very similar to how blind people or bats see in the dark…I am getting closer to the truth by emiting ideas, which get corected by feedback from others.

Re: You know who you are...

I wouldn't quite say, “Get corrected by feedback from others.”, dear Oris…

More like…Getting More Balanced….Being Attuned To YOUR Own Particular Frequency =)

Like playing with the changing radio stations…searching….for the right tune, a song you like and feeeel =)

Re: You know who you are...

It's funny to say dear Resurected…but hear it goes….

I had this mental picture of the sound being similar to a torpedo…so, that's why I refered to the traectory of the sound or torpedo being corrected, until it reaches the target…but using frequencies works too…

I realize that mostly I think in images and then I have to find the words to describe what I see…That is why I found dear Resurected funny…I imagined a corpse…I am sure you get the picture…

Re: You know who you are...

Dear Resurrected :-P

I getcha Oris :-D

I think in pictures too and find words limiting…hard to find words to go with a zillion multi-aspected images :-D

I'm a pretty good looking reanimated corpse :-D
But you can call me Ariela so you don't feel morbid, LOL.

Re: You know who you are...

…hello BP and friends…

…I'm not exactly sure what you meant when you stated “minority”…
…excuse me ,but WE Are the Magority !…


     …and I agree…this is a vacation…

         …but kinda like a working vacation…

Re: You know who you are...

Hi Will,

Re: You know who you are...

Reading this thread had the hairs on the back of my neck and arms raise on end.
I've always wondered why people didn't see things the way I did. A few of my past friends who were considered “sensitives” used to look at me and squint, saying that I was too bright, or they'd think of me, and they'd see a ball of light. I get along with animals better than I do people, but people have always been drawn to me, saying that being around me sooths them for some reason.
My friends have always seen me as a “mother” figure, even though I'm usually the youngest of all of us.
As a child, the family pets would stay with me as often as they could, sneaking into my room at night to lay on my bed, or beside my bed.
I seem to draw other people who are “sensitives”, to me. Actually, my husband and I both do it appears. We've both been described as pillars of light, to which people flock, like moths to a flame.
I'm glad I found this community!

Re: You know who you are...

Hi Liz,

I can see from your little picture that your picture is overexposed…so being of light…welcome to our picnic…

Re: You know who you are...

In a group meditation some years ago I found myself in the company of an American Indian Chief, who appeared blind in both eyes, we talked and smoked - I looked upwards, saw the stars and rose towards them feeling a great sense of freedom.  I was aware then as something seemed to say “you are from the stars”.  I believe we are all from the stars and made from whatever stars are made from.
This brings a great sense of connection for me….

Re: You know who you are...

I think many of us Starseeds feel a strong connection to Native Americans. I've spent a lot of time out in the Southwest and always felt most at home there on the land.

Recently, I had a dream that there was some kind of attack on New York City where I live. I passed over the river with many others to escape. Suddenly an Native American fell from the sky and landed not far from where I stood. I recognized him as a friend and ran to him asking why he had jumped. I felt like he had committed suicide. As his body lay there, it began to disppear and in its place was a small bronze plaque that read Cifero, Star Elder. I called to him and heard his voice making chanting calls back to me. I asked him if he was now my guide and he chanted back to me again. I felt comforted knowing that he was now with me as a guide. Then I woke up.

Re: You know who you are...

My mother felt a strong connection to Native Americans.  We're from Connecticut, and she visited the Mashpee on Cape Cod and when we vacationed in Florida we visited the Seminole.  After I was grown she took a trip out west and visited Native Americans in many states out there.  I've never been out west.  I never understood these to be spiritual quests until some time after she died, when I discovered her books on Native American spirituality.  After I read your post it occurred to me that perhaps she was a starseed who never got a chance to do what she came here for.  I don't know if that is a ridiculous idea or not, this is all very new to me.

Your dream was so vivid!

Have you seen the movie Mongol?  Different culture but I think the wolf was portrayed as an animal spirit guide.

Re: You know who you are...

I think many Starseeds come here and never fully realize their truth. It's only because our culture is waking up that we ourselves have the twinkling of these considerations. And because we have been able through technology to span the globe and come together to share our distinct lives and epxeriences. But that does not mean those who never know their truth do not fulfill their purpose. Their mere existence holds a high frequency for new thought and energy to come into the planet and transform it's inhabitants. Your mother accomplished what she came here for. She held a space for the rest of us to enter. And she planted that seed in you. Pretty great!

I haven't seen Mongol yet but I've had many experiences with animal guides. If you're mother had these connections, you probably do too if you want to open to them.

Re: You know who you are...

Thank you, Glynnda, your kind words are very comforting to me.  Losing my mother before I ever had a chance to know her intimately as a spiritual person has been a deep sadness, a regret, that I carry pretty close to my heart.  But because of what you and others at Gaia have said, including that beautiful doe last week, I'm feeling less lost and definitely not as out of place as I felt before.  It's thrilling to think that she may be helping me now to find my way.  Helping me to figure things out.  She didn't take kindly to dying at age 59, but I'm starting to believe that she may have found some peace after all and perhaps she is enjoying watching her seed start to sprout!

I know this has probably been asked elsewhere, but is there a book you would recommend that can tell me a bit more about starseeds?  Thank you so much!
Blessing and best wishes,
Barbara

…Mongol…was great !…

…I didn't mind the subtitles …

…interesting fact…that something like 15% of the worlds poulation has genetic markers that trace with Gengis Khan…he was a hero to his people…

Re: You know who you are...

I had to turn away for the battle scenes but I loved the rest of the movie, with all the mystical undertones.  The people were so in tune with the earth.  And what an extraordinary man and thoughtful leader Genghis Khan was!  Temudjin.  He seemed to be intuitive about the motives of others and knew how to use them to good purpose.  The movie is supposed to be the first in a trilogy about Khan's life.  Looking forward to the next one!

My father is the son of Ukrainian immigrants.  He said his parents believed that they were invaded by the Mongols and had some of their blood.  I guess they were probably right!

Genetics (and genealogy) are areas of passionate interest to me.  Have you been to the American Anthropological Association's website about race?  The section on human variation is fascinating!

Re: You know who you are...

Hi everyone sharing here in the Starseed Sanctuary,

Re: You know who you are...

hmm….

Re: You know who you are...

BP

I've been busy lately, and haven't had a chance to comment much on your posts lately.  So, onward!

 you said: ”I have been maintaining what I'm describing here as a manner of doing my best to bring about what I feel is necessary, which is simply because it would allow Peace on Earth, as I understand, as a result of cooperations, of which I'm doing my best to orchestrate.”

Well, you certainly are in good company there! Trying to Harmonize and build bridges of cooperation and understanding sounds *easy* but I know from experience that it can requre a great deal of bravery, and stamina, and a real committment to Service. A true committment to Peace is a badge of sorts that others can recognize you by. Beings who do not Love Harmony like the air that they breathe have little need for peace, and little Love or concern for their fellows.

A life without striving for Harmony would be “death” indeed.

“I'm not the best communicator and really, how would you go about gaining such consideration if you felt yourself in a similar position. ”

My spiritual journey has swallowed up my whole life..(not to mention the lives it has “sucked into” like pursuits)..and I am grateful every minute for the chaotic, tenuous, scary, beautiful, and organized  dance of forces that interplay in my life! The beauty to be experienced along the way is more than  sufficient to offset the “costs” of my committments.

you also said: “To change the topic some, so as to describe some other things in reference to the posts including mention of “Native American” manners of Existence.  About 3 years ago, based on me being what might be described as a Conduit, and in consideration of it being possible concerning what was happening, I was central to a Being of “Native American” Orientation, that I understood to be 7 million years old, in terms of having maintaining His identity concurrently with Creation on Earth, for about that long, and He was Exhumed from the Earth, as I was informed.”

Very interesting -not just this but all of the Native American experiences / thoughts being shared here. I find the starseed / native american connection very resonant. As I've stated before, I was visited at a very early age by a “past” aspect of my Self who was a native american chief / medicine man and who “reminded me” that I knew how to heal myself so there was no use weeping over small hurts, and giving me the hints and quiet support that allowed me to “fall right back into” my “old” practice.

“I'm not the best communicator and really, how would you go about gaining such consideration if you felt yourself in a similar position.”
 
Sometimes it is difficult to translate experiences on the “edge” of humanity's “expanding” consciousness (or its consciousness of its consciousness anyway) into something other people are able to consider in a meaningful way. I think any person who has ever expereinced any degree of difficulty in relating an extremely “outside of the box” experience understands this completely.  We simply at this point lack some necessary language/experience to correclty convey, for example, 5D experiences into 3D language.

“So, it's up too people now, basically.  Please know, efforts, hopes, prayers and so on are appreciated, while such things aren't going to get done what needs to get done if you don't recycle more, if you don't stop driving cars everywhere, if you don't create a Earth friendly transportation system, if you don't establish alternate uses of power, such as solar, wind and so on.”

I couldn't agree more. This is so important. We talk a lot about the environment at our house, and just the other day, my youngest daughter helped me set up the new (larger) worm composting bin. Which I was pleased to see she really enjoyed immensely. She told each and every worm she moved, how cute they were, and assured them that they were safe.  : )   It is also this belief (coupled with a Divine directive) that led me to start an annual Green Gathering festival in my hometown, where we showcase green technologies, ways of living, etc. As well as promote Peace and Religious Harmony (!) as it has evolved over the years to include this element.

So people, recycle, compost what you can (worm bins are easy, convienent, and kind of neat if you can't compost outdoors), invest in greener technologies and cleaning products. They're worth it in SOO many ways! We do pretty well, but I know I have lots of ways I can improve my practice of living in Harmony with my envorionment that I have yet to put into practice. There's still so much room to explore and grow in these areas. The promise of impending breakthroughs in these areas is certain, and VERY exciting to me.

 You said to yourself, “I'm going to save the world where Jesus Christ failed”

I said to myself (feeling an upwelling of a Deep desire to do so) when I preformed a ceremony to consciously begin my spiritual awakening “I cleanse and consecreate this body, this Spirit, in strength and service to the Light. Please place me where You have need of me so that I may Work to fulfill Your ultimate Purpose.”  Please note that by “You” and “Your” I meant the ultimate consciousness of all creation.

I suspect we each have our own statements we have made, and are now fulfilling. At least many of us do.

I am reminded of the Pledge of Kwan Yin, which I also resonate very strongly with:
 

Never will I seek nor receive private, individual salvation; never will I enter into final peace alone; but forever and everywhere will I live and strive for the redemption of every creature throughout the world from the bonds of conditioned existence.

Love, Light, and Laughter to you,
Mercale

Re: You know who you are...

HI Mercale,

Re: You know who you are...

…thank you Friends of BP…

…your words of counsil are always welcome here…

…please stay…

…or at least drop back by frequently…



…these times are very fluid right now…and things might get a little hit and miss…

…but the tapestry weaves back onto itself…

Re: You know who you are...

…Very Cool site !…

…we ARE one race !…in our differences we are like 99.9% the same…that is amazing !…that points to a single common ancester…


…we have the 6 superficial colored races as part of our schooling…so that we are prepared when we step out of our small world and meet other actual races…

Re: You know who you are...

We aren't going to meet other “races,” Will. Other LIFE-FORMS. I am grateful for all the movies that are preparing us !!!

Barbara, some books and other orienting resources ABOUT Starseeds are in our Resources Board. Especially in those top two posts with the little orange light bulb beside them, and some of the older threads further down in the list on the Board. But perhaps Glynnda will suggest one for you specifically.

Barbara, I don't want to seem to be hopping over your note to Glynnda about your mother; please know I am glad you shared that, and that our beloved Glynnda was helpful (but of course !!)

Good thing I have this thread viewed as Newest First or I would have missed your post until the Notification came through !

I noticed the movie Mongol and was attracted to it but parking is awful at the only theatre it showed at here. Perhaps I will take the time to see it on DVD. (Unlikely, I almost never watch things, I am too busy living….) Interesting to hear what others said about it.  I too would have to close my eyes and hopefully my ears, at the violence. That's also a reason I didn't see it……

Blessings to all,
OM

Re: You know who you are...

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to mention for some of the new people on the site that a good book to read is Return of the Bird Tribes by Ken Carey.

He speaks a lot about the Native American/Starseed connection.

Re: You know who you are... -- coming "Golden Age"

I never got around to reading that, didn't resonate, but his book Vision has been very important in my development (and his original books, Starseed Transmissions and I forget the other(s). Plus I heard him in a weekend workshop and an evening lecture and loved his story and his energy.

Vision has aspects I find almost barfy in their oversimplifcations and other characteristics I don't resonate with, but it is the best description of the coming Golden Age I ever saw, and has sung in my heart ever since I read it years ago.

That would be a nice and rawther timely conversation. What other descriptions, really good specific descriptions. of the so-called Golden Age, have others here discovered????

Let's continue that in another thread if you want to. I'll start it on Musings Board.

Blessings, OM Bastet

Re: You know who you are... -- coming "Golden Age"

This thread is already long enough, haha. Let's continue this sub-topic on this new thread.

Blessings, OM Bastet

Re: You know who you are...

I agree with everything you told. The question is thios. Wfat further development can we expect?

Re: You know who you are...

Not quite tracking which “you” you are meaning, sanmugan, and developments about what??

Blissings, OM

Re: You know who you are...

I have always known that I could see and talk to the dead and that I loved to write, but it seems that so many other unusual things have come to the forefront lately like the opening up of my throat, heart, and 3rd eye chakras.  These have been so painful in all the areas of physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual.

Re: You know who you are...

It's a difficult time for sensitives in the world. But there's also a lot of support. I find it's important to keep moving through all these experiences. Opening of the chakras is not always easy, particularly now that many people are experiencing them opening quickly. Hang in there…..

Re: You know who you are...

This is very interesting. I relate to a LOT of what's being said here.

I took that test here http://groups.gaia.com/starseeds/conversations/view/393178

Unfortunately, this explanation how to figure out the score confuses me: The qualifier is 4+ ‘yes’ answers to any set of 6 questions.

Maybe because I suck at math, but I dunno. Anyways, I answered “yes” to 16 of the questions. Can somebody tell me what my score is?

Anyways, I relate to a lot of things being said here. I also feel distant from my body; in fact I feel very uncomfortable in it. In psychological terms I have the symptoms of someone with gender dysphoria or gender identity disorder. Except that I don't have any desire to be the opposite sex. I don't feel like the opposite sex…I don't know WHAT I feel like…I just know this horrible discomfort that's always been with me…I dunno if that means I'm a starseed or an elemental or what….

I've also always had an uncanny connection with nature; particularly in the summer. Everything hums and vibrates in the summer. When I was 9 I started seeing this white mustang spirit hanging around me. This is also when I started lucid dreaming. My dreams (both the lucid and non-lucid) weren't Freud-type dreams that were bogged down with psychological symbolism; I always felt like they were coming from somewhere bigger than myself. They had eagles, monkeys, spiders, dinosaurs, lobsters, mice….

I recently decided to get back into lucid dreaming. I kind of lost the ease I had for it after I had an emergency surgery when I was 12. They gave me morphine…I have to wonder if it messed with my ability to remember my dreams and lucid dream…. Since I started trying again I've had a couple lucid dreams but they were very shaky and I expect I need more practice at them to gain the control I used to have. It's proving difficult to become lucid every night like I used to, though….

Also, I dunno if this means anything, but about a year ago (January 2009) I developed exercise-induced athsma due to a combination of extreme anxiety and cold weather…. I'm noticing it flaring up more often now that it's getting cold again; also when I'm under pressure though (even when it's warm). It was actually bothering me a minute ago, but when I came to 1Vector3's post alllll the way from Feburary 2008 about “activating”…. I wasn't really sure I understood…but when I read the part that said “WAKE UP THE TIME IS NOW” I felt something quite literally MOVE in my chest…? Like it almost felt like my rib cage came open a little bit, or something. It felt like something literally opened up though…I dunno if it was a coincidence…. Anyways the athsma backed off right then, I stopped wheezing…

I dunno, coincidence maybe. I mean I'm a very spiritual person and I've had some odd experiences in my life, but I never really thought anything special could happen while sitting at the computer…I dunno, the scenario just feels a bit cold to me, like it wouldn't even be possible…. Heck, I guess anything's possible but…and I don't wanna jump to conclusions either and start shouting “omg I'm a starseed I felt something open up when I read those words”. lol

peace

Re: You know who you are...

…I think I recall that one of the tributes of an elemental was to “suck at math”… just kidding…

I can relate to what you said about OM's posts… they can have that affect on people… especially if it is their time to be *triggered*…

…don't let not knowing bother you… the important thing is to keep thinking… keep asking… keep yourself moving upwards… on of the biggest things is Intention… the Universe is geared to give you what you ask for… the trick can sometimes be the framing of the question…

…Will…

Re: You know who you are...

Yes, thanks Will, so true, excellent advice. Intention is maybe the main thing. (Well, perhaps next to what I call “surrender” and others might call “trusting.”) Knowing and understanding are actually “the booby prize.” Experiencing, embodying – that's what it's all about. 

Love your little joke, Will, probably true!!!! I suspect Brownies might be good at math, because they are into being helpful and math is often necessary for that, haha, but yeah, I can imagine most of the others not having much resonance with math!!!

Cicada, remember these not just squiggles on an electronic page. They are energies which are independent of space and time. So yes, lots of special things can happen while sitting at a computer, haha!! The scenario is cold only if you are unaware of the energies which transcend physical reality. 

I am thrilled you felt that opening upon the trigger words  being read. Those are not my words, they were given to me by ET spiritual teachers, as universal triggers to start the self-remembering, self-awakening process for starseeds.

Excellent description of your discomfort about your body. I'm curious whether it is more general than just your sexuality. Are you uncomfortable with the height, size, shape of your body, too? That is VERY COMMON among Starseeds, as many of us remember (subconsciously, usually) the kind of body we had wherever we regard ourselves as “from.” These human bodies are kinda like “WTF is THIS shape all about????”

I can imagine this might be true of Elementals also, but not so radically, as most of them are depicted as humanoid, same general shape, but differing in size from humans, and in some particulars (for example, wings, etc.)

I dunno about exercise-induced asthma, but asthma in general is regarded by some psychologists (spiritually oriented) as the manifestation of GRIEF or sadness. I can make up a plausible story that when you read those words and you started to “wake up,” grief about your separation from yourself and your life context, separation from your folks, dropped away considerably. (Hmm, I am getting insistence to use the metaphor “took a nose-dive.”)

You might check inside and see whether grief and the separation-healing resonate for you. And how's the anxiety been since then?

Blessings, 
OM (my name, 1Vector3 is kinda just a title or nickname I don't use in personal interactions.)

Re: You know who you are...

Hm, so I was supposed to feel that? That's kind of amazing, lol….

And at some times I've felt slightly uncomfortable with size…I'm very thin as it is but I've felt like I'm big-boned…I'm not really though…. I dunno if that's just psychological though…. And if being uncomfortable with general female shape counts as being “uncomfortable with shape”, then yeah, definitely…. But yeah my discomfort is mostly in regards to that…that I don't feel comfortable in a female body and I know I wouldn't feel comfortable in a male one either…. I'm looking for answers…. It's a psychological issue as well as a spiritual one….

And that is interesting about the interpretation of athsma…. I did develop it during a time of extreme grief; I have never felt grief on that level before, and that's when I developed it…and I expect it's one of the reasons WHY I developed it too…. So I think it might just be in relation to my present life, not a life I had somewhere else or in a different time….

Though thanks for asking the anxiety/grief is gone for that…. Although whenever I feel stressed about something else the athsma symptoms kick in again…. I just lost my life's work from my Mac last night, the hard drive was fried…2000 pages of 12-point font…. I'm very stupid for not backing it up (although to be fair I THOUGHT I had it backed up), and now the pain/grief is suffocating…almost literally…I've been drinking tea to try to calm myself down and stop the athsma symptoms….

Thanks :)
Cicada

Re: You know who you are... -- body image

Oh, no, I meant resonate as being true descriptions.

So sorry to hear about your loss of your work!!!! And the backup that wasn't. I don't know what to say. Can you at all access a perspective in which something good can come from this situation? Can you at all trust that this serves some Divine Purpose of benefit for yourself and the world? If you can get into either of those, some miracle might happen, like the backup becomes accessible, or you discover another backup you didn't even know existed, or a way of retrieving the data which you didn't even know was technologically possible becomes clear. None of these can happen if you insist on the reality “It's all gone forever.” Just some suggestions.

If you want answers about the body shape thing, you might try going into a meditative state and “asking” for an impression – visual or kinesthetic or both – of the body which feels natural to you. And ALLOW the impression, don't judge whether it is good/bad, pleasing/ugly, true/not true. 

Another possibility which occurs to me is you might be used to regarding your aura as part of your body, in previous embodiments perhaps elsewhere, and you could check to see whether letting your body-image expand to include your auric field feels more natural. Just a hunch on my part, probably the first exercise will give the answer. Maybe not the first attempt, but you can persist in wanting to know!

Blessings, OM 

Re: You know who you are... -- body image

Well, yes, even though I'm really worried about my data being in such a fragile state, I did manage to tell myself to stay as positive as I could…I did some searching and found that there ARE ways to recover it. It will cost a LOT of money, but I really don't care at this point, I just cannot lose that data.

This meditation exercise you've suggested is interesting to me, because I've done this spontaneously with a few animals I've been in contact with. I was told (by some kind of spirit I think; I had the impression it was some kind of important VIP spirit or something, lol) that my guinea pig has (or HAD…she's much better now) behavior issues because in her last life she was also a small rodent, and when she died she was excited because she thought she'd be born as a dog…but for some reason they told her she had to go back and be a rodent again. So, she doesn't like being a guinea pig….

I also had a rabbit (he died last May), and I had the overwhelming impression that he had CHOSEN to stay behind as a small animal, even though if he WANTED to, he could have graduated to a higher-ranking one like a dog or something. He was very mature for a rabbit, had an impressive aura….

I suppose I just have to practice directing this towards myself…? I have actually tried to at times but it's rather confusing because it seems like I come up with something different every time.

Your other suggestion resonates with me more, I think…that I might be used to regarding my aura as part of my body…. I'm very new at these kinds of things but that suggestion seems to mean something….
