The Difference Between Soul and Spirit
As I mentioned in the Soul post, we tend to see soul and spirit as the same thing, but this isn’t the case. It might not seem important, but if you get them mixed up, it can cause confusion and problems in your spiritual practice. So in this post, we’ll explore these differences and why soul and spirit need to be kept in right relationship to each other.
The ancient metaphysical view of reality sees mankind as having three aspects: Spirit, Psyche, and Body. In Greece this was pneuma, psyche, and soma, where pneuma means breath or spirit, and psyche means soul or life. And in Christianity it was Spiritus (or Animus), Anima, and Corpus.
Some of the blame for our conflation of spirit and soul can be laid at the feet of Jung. He took the word animus and applied it to the idea of the soul-image in women, as opposed to the animaas the soul-image in men. However, the original meaning of animus connects it to spirit – the foundation of our being – while anima is the soul in both men and women.
Jung aside, the main cause can be found in the development of Western ideas about the soul, which can be traced back to the Greeks, via Egypt, and beyond to the ancient shamanic cultures that grew out of the Palaeolithic.
The Greeks had various theories about what the psyche, or soul, was and where it lived and what happened to it after death. Originally, it was identified with the body, distributed in various organs. But under Egyptian influence, it became more ephemeral and was eventually seen as a separate entity that could leave the body and travel to the Otherworld.
Christianity was heavily influenced by Greek thought, but the idea of the soul was gradually demoted – some would say suppressed. This made it easier for the soul to be killed off during the Enlightenment and replaced with the idea of Reason and rational thought. Ironically, this move led to the downfall of Church.
The idea of the soul survived in other traditions in Western culture, such as Gnosticism and Neoplatonism. In the Renaissance there was a huge flowering of soul-based traditions, like alchemy, Hermeticism, and the Kabbalah. However, these were then squished by the scientific revolution and the soul went underground again to re-emerge in depth psychology and Romanticism.
To understand how the soul and spirit relate to each other and the body, we need to delve deeper into the metaphysics. It’s a vast subject, so what follows is a very simple overview…
The Soul of the World mediates between heaven and earth
The Western tradition has its roots in Plato’s theory of an ideal world made of eternal Forms, called the nous, which means mind or intellect. Forms are the blueprint for everything that exists, including abstract concepts, like goodness and truth. Plato believed the world of matter was made by a creator god called the Demiurge who copied the Forms to create everything that exists. So the world was seen as a shadow or copy of the true reality, or nous.
The Demiurge then brought the world to life by adding a soul, called the psyche tou kosmou – the psyche of the cosmos – also known as the Anima Mundi, the Soul of the World. This is a dualistic view of reality with two worlds: one ideal or perfect (spirit, nous), and the other an imperfect copy (matter). The two worlds are linked by the soul which organizes matter using the Forms and mediates between the worlds.
Plato’s ideas were adapted by various Neoplatonists, such as Plotinus, who tweaked the metaphysics so that each level of reality emanates from the one above. In this version, the Forms, or nous, create the soul, and then soul creates matter. Plotinus also believed that the nous emanates from what he called the One – i.e. God.
This series of emanations is called the Great Chain of Being and it gives a hierarchical structure to reality. But whether it works like that is an open question. It may appear this way to us, but our perception is limited by our position at the ‘bottom’ of the chain. Reality is actually more fluid and dynamic because it’s happening in consciousness – or nous – so it depends on your perspective.
Perhaps each aspect of reality (spirit, soul, matter) are different frequencies or dimensions or perspectives of One Reality. Look at it from our perspective and you see the world of matter, while from the faerie perspective you see soul, and from God’s perspective, it’s all spirit.
Soul then is how spirit experiences itself at different levels of being. As Patrick Harpur suggests in A Complete Guide to the Soul:
“…it is as if the whole cosmos is a single oceanic flow composed of soul-stuff. It is no longer seen as having four levels, each transcending the next, but as different images enfolded or immanent in each other, like a set of Russian dolls.”
Except that Russian dolls can be taken apart and separated, and that’s not possible with reality, so it’s not a great metaphor, but it gives you an idea of how it might work.
I’d also suggest that the cosmos isn’t made of ‘soul-stuff,’ but of spirit. The Forms aren’t off somewhere else in a transcendent world. The nous is right here and we interact with it via the soul, and sometimes directly in a mystical illumination of the Intellect. For how this works, see Wayne Teasdale’s vision of the structure of Being here.
Hildegard von Bingen’s vision of the cosmos as an egg
As we saw in the Soul post, you are Spirit and you have a Soul. You have access to all levels of being via the soul and the spirit, but in different ways. From one perspective, you’re an individual manifestation of the collective Soul of the World in which all life has its existence and all are interconnected. Your soul is a microcosm that reflects the macrocosm – as above, so below.
This is also reflected at the level of spirit, but here, all is one because the spirit can’t be divided – it’s a unity. So my spirit is essentially the same as yours. Namaste! 🙏
At the level of the body, the soul is experienced through feelings, imagination and intuition, while the spirit is reflected in the intellect. But the Intellect of spirit isn’t the same as the puny intellect of your normal thinking mind for obvious reasons. Your thinking mind is based in duality, but the Intellect transcends duality.
Here are some basic keywords for the soul and spirit:
- Soul – Immanent, Multiplicity, Many, Changeable, Yin, Feminine, Luna, Darkness, Descent, Depth, Dionysus, Imagination
- Spirit – Transcendent, Unity, One, Eternal, Yang, Masculine, Sol, Light, Ascent, Height, Apollo, Intellect
Remember: none of this is meant to be taken literally. In reality, soul and spirit are two aspects of one being and the edges are always blurred. They’re not really opposed to each other. It’s our clunky language that makes it seem that way, and our tendency to polarise everything – an artefact of Christianity and the quickly unravelling Age of Pisces.
Soul and spirit can only be understood in relationship to each other. They complement and need each other, like Shiva and Shakti embracing, or the sacred marriage of alchemy.
In The Unknown She, Andrew Harvey speaks of how Ramakrishna described Brahman (the masculine) and Shakti (the feminine) as two aspects of one reality beyond name. He used the metaphor of the masculine as a diamond and the feminine as the radiance of the light shining from it. And – brilliantly – Brahman as the serpent and Shakti as its wriggle.
In other words, the feminine (soul) is how the masculine (spirit) takes form and experiences physical existence.
And before your politically correct spleen explodes (!), this has nothing to do with the sexes. This is obvious, but in today’s climate it’s become necessary to make these things explicit. Men and women have both a masculine and feminine side. So forget Jung, because your soul is feminine and your spirit is masculine, whether you’re a man or a woman.
The Great Work of Alchemy
The problem we have with gender has deep roots, but the male and female sides of life weren’t always so polarized.
Ancient cultures described their cosmologies using pairs of gods and goddesses, like Isis and Osiris, or Gaia and Ouranos. Even monotheism started this way and Yahweh had a wife called Asherah. But over time she was written out of the story and the goddess was suppressed. This happened in Christianity too, leaving the feminine, and the soul, homeless.
The world of the psyche and the feminine became conflated with the physical world of the body. In this way, it was linked to the Platonic idea of the world as an imperfect copy of the real world of spirit. The feminine was then rebranded as fallen – and women by association.
However, the problem with women predates Christianity and Judaism so it’s not entirely their fault. The teachings were used to justify prejudice that had been around for thousands of years.
Western Christianity in particular has a problem with the body and female sexuality, and the metaphysics was used to reinforce the neurotic obsessions of the early Church Fathers, aided by the fact that many of them couldn’t read Greek. Mistranslations of words crept in and the teachings became distorted and literalised. For example, in Corinthians 11, Paul is talking about the importance of head coverings for women, and in verse 3 says:
“…the head of every man is Christ, the head of a wife is her husband, and the head of Christ is God.”
This verse, along with many others, has been used to claim women should submit to their husbands, but that’s a misinterpretation. It’s actually a metaphysical statement, as explained by the 9th century Irish scholar, John Scotus Eriugena in The Voice of the Eagle, translated by Christopher Bamford:
“The woman is the rational soul (anima), whose husband…is understood to be the animus, which is variously named now intellect, now mind,…and often even spirit. This is the husband of whom the Apostle says, “the head of the woman is the man, the head of the man is Christ, the head of Christ is God.” In other words, the head of the anima is the intellectus, and the head of the intellectus is Christ. Such is the natural order of the human creature.”
You can see how easy it would be to misinterpret these verses and claim that women are incapable of understanding spiritual truths or of becoming priests, and so on. But Eriugena makes it clear that this is an inner process of alignment. The soul and spirit must be joined together in sacred marriage before you can receive eternal life.
Sol and Luna combine to produce wisdom as Sophia
The history of Western Christianity reveals why this inner marriage between the soul and the spirit is so important. When you reduce the human being to just spirit and body, it creates a polarisation of opposites. Without the soul, you lose access to the imaginal realm which allows you to interpret reality by imagining alternative perspectives. You’re then stuck with only the senses and matter on the one hand, and an abstract spiritual realm on the other.
Without imagination, the body and matter are reified and become too solid, and you’re reduced to literalism. And the intellect disappears off into abstraction. The psyche polarises and splits in two and your thinking becomes distorted. Without the soul, you have no way to discern when your mind has become clouded by shadow material and unconscious fears.
This is why fundamentalists and literalists are obsessed with the devil and his hordes of demons. For them, it’s all too real and they’re effectively possessed by their own shadow. But perhaps the soul is just trying to get their attention.
When the soul was cast out, the beings who appear in the psyche – nature spirits, faeries, and so on – were re-classified as demons. These beings, or daimons, are shape-shifters and tricky to pin down, and they may not be entirely trustworthy, but that doesn’t necessarily make them evil, as Patrick Harpur explains:
“Christianity, unhappy as it is with ambiguity, divided and polarised the daimons into angels and devils. The act of polarising made them literal beings, which daimons are not. They are real, and even, at times, physical – but, like soul itself, cannot be taken literally.”
This egalitarian approach underpins Eriugena’s work and proves that Christianity doesn’t need to be so divisive and literal-minded. It’s a pity the wider Church couldn’t learn from his example, but in 1225 his work was condemned by the Pope – a sign that he must’ve been doing something right!
The deepest depths of the psyche or soul are impersonal, with physical instincts at one end of the spectrum, and spirit and God at the other. But it’s all held within the Clear Light of consciousness, or Intellect, nous, spirit. God is immanent in all things, but when experienced through the soul, it feels like the Goddess, or Goddesses.
This multiplicity of experience is what characterises the soul. She expresses herself through persons, human and non-human, physical and non-physical, and these are experienced as stories. Myths are the stories of the daimons and gods, and these are personifications of archetypes – or Forms – which give structure to the psyche.
We only see the gods through the appearances they take on and we experience their stories as narrative patterns in our lives. One god can have multiple images or personifications, like different faces of a crystal. This is a big clue to how astrology works. To explore each sign and the gods associated with them read the Zodiac Myths series here.
In spiritual practice, we often talk about letting go of our stories. Superficially, that sounds like a call to reject the soul and embrace spirit, but that’s an example of literal thinking. You don’t have to get rid of your stories or forget them – just don’t take them literally. Let them go but hold them lightly in open hands.
You need the soul and its imagination to interpret the subjective world in which you live. But you can also become lost in its hall of mirrors. That’s why the changeable world of soul needs to be balanced by the eternal world of spirit. This doesn’t mean floating off into transcendent bliss, away from the body and soul. It means recognising the presence of spirit right where you are.
The point of spiritual practice is to bring your whole being into alignment – spirit, soul and body – so that your ego, or personal self is aligned, via the soul, with the spirit, or higher Self. This is the process of atonement – at-one-ment – and it depends on you having the right relationship between the various levels.
To do this you need to centre yourself in spirit, rather than either the body or the soul, because spirit is the ground of your being. Everything is embedded in spirit and emanates from it.
It’s spirit that infuses the stories of your soul with the light of awareness. You wouldn’t know your stories without spirit. But without soul, spirit would have nothing to experience.
This is the meaning of the sacred marriage of soul and spirit.

THE SOUL’S CHOICE TO SPIRITUALLY AWAKEN
A THREE-PHASE PROCESS
“There is a candle in your heart, ready to be kindled. There is a void in your soul, ready to be filled. You feel it, don’t you?” – Rumi
Only by synchronicity and divine timing would anyone find themselves reading this Spiritual Practice of Awakening report, meaning it’s Your Time and Soul’s Choice to Spiritually Awaken. Then moving on from your 3D movie-like matrix of incarnate lessons and experiences. Your transition into higher dimensions, densities, and vibrational frequencies is the beginning of your journey home and your reunification with Source. There are no shortcuts to discovering and maintaining your spiritual path or journey. One must choose to continuously engage and clear the subconscious mind of negative thoughts, emotional & verbal reactions, and physical impressions of fear and past traumas through the art and practice of digging into them, getting comfortable with their roots, and gaining gratitude for what they gave you. To simplify the often-overwhelming work required, we have created a three-phase process; acquiring spiritual knowledge from established and reliable sources, obtaining inner wisdom and understanding, adopting a daily routine of practice and habits, and then discovering a new reality of 5D experiences. The Spiritual Practice Report is based on three phases, with seven steps or seven topics per phase. The Great Awakening Report will research and update articles and video content for each new Spiritual Practice of Awakening Report.
PHASE I: Spiritual Knowledge, Wisdom & Understanding
Ancient Text / Spiritual Teachings / Free Will Universe / Law of One / Ascension
“Spirituality cannot be Defined but can be Described as a Journey to the Center of the Soul.”
In Phase 1, we seek to explore ancient spiritual texts, spiritual teachings, and concepts of thought leaders. By engaging these historical documents, we are connecting the dots on your path of spiritual awakening. First is to understand the Free Will Universe, otherwise known as The Grand Experiment, and how it applies to your soul’s journey into the 3D holographic movie-like matrix of lessons and experiences. Next, we examine your journey of incarnations into what is described as The Game or Games within the Grand Experiment. All Games have an ending or completion of cycles, defined as The Event, End of Times, or The Ascension. The most accurate and thorough spiritual text we have come across thus far is The Law of One, which we use as a foundation for our research and a basis of reference for spiritual writings and documents. Knowing what resonates within you and your inner intuitive awareness is the key to applying any spiritual truth. Each individual’s journey is unique, giving these texts a true living quality. The lessons, how you interpret, what resonates, and what you carry keep changing as you gain more life and spiritual lessons and entanglement of the two; your perspective shifts, and a whole new layer appears. This is an ongoing process and will require continued study, personal evaluation, and enlightened thought. Most of all, enjoy this inward journey through the heart; it will be the most challenging and rewarding of your life’s endeavors.

Ancient Spiritual Text | Ancient Chinese Alchemy
Ancient records and text provide the basic framework and architectural foundations for our human understanding of Spirituality. This is where you find the basis for all spiritual teachings and will become your foundation of learning.
Ancient Chinese alchemy, a profound and intricate tradition rooted in Taoist philosophy, encompasses both physical and spiritual practices aimed at achieving immortality and inner transformation. Unlike Western alchemy’s focus on the transmutation of metals, Chinese alchemy emphasizes the cultivation of qi (vital energy) and the harmonization of yin and yang. Central to this practice are concepts such as Neidan (internal alchemy), which seeks spiritual enlightenment and personal transcendence, and Waidan (external alchemy), which involves the preparation of elixirs and medicinal substances. Through a blend of meditation, visualization, and ritual, practitioners aimed to unlock the secrets of the universe, enhance longevity, and ultimately attain a state of immortality. As a reflection of broader philosophical ideas in Chinese culture, ancient alchemy not only highlights the quest for eternal life but also serves as a pathway to self-discovery and spiritual awakening.
“To translate meaning into life.. is to realize the Tao.” – Carl Jung: Commentary to The Secret of the Golden Flower”

Spiritual Teachings & Thought Leaders | Dr. Wayne Dyer
We explore the writing and teachings of some of the worlds leading spiritual teachers and thought leaders. Inspired, intuitive and channeled writings all contribute to our collective knowledge of the nature of spirituality.
Dr. Wayne Dyer was a renowned spiritual teacher, self-help author, and motivational speaker whose work has profoundly influenced millions worldwide. Often referred to as the “Father of Motivation,” Dyer combined psychology, spirituality, and self-empowerment in his teachings, encouraging individuals to take control of their thoughts and live purpose-driven lives. His best-selling books, including The Power of Intention and Your Erroneous Zones, emphasized the transformative power of positive thinking, self-awareness, and aligning with the universal energy of intention.
In addition to his own teachings, Dyer was deeply influenced by ancient wisdom texts such as the Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu. He devoted considerable time to studying and sharing its insights, emphasizing the importance of living in harmony with the natural flow of life and surrendering to the Tao, or the way of the universe. His book, Change Your Thoughts – Change Your Life, is a modern interpretation of the Tao Te Ching, guiding readers on how to incorporate its timeless wisdom into their lives.
Dyer also drew from the I Am Discourses, a series of spiritual teachings focusing on the power of affirming “I Am” as a statement of divinity and creative force. He frequently referenced these discourses to remind people of their innate divinity and the need to be mindful of how they use their thoughts and words. By understanding the power of “I Am,” individuals can transcend limitations and tap into a higher level of consciousness, embodying their full potential.
“Freedom means you are unobstructed in living your life as you choose. Anything less is a form of slavery.” – Dr. Wayne Dyer
Thirty spokes converge upon a single hub; it is on the hole in the center that the use of cart hinges. – 11th Verse – Tao Te Ching
“Everything in the universe has a purpose. Indeed, the invisible intelligence that flows through everything in a purposeful fashion is also flowing through you.” – Wayne Dyer
Here’s a rewritten version of the sentence:
Wayne was profoundly impactful, as anyone familiar with his work would know. He had a candid, no-nonsense approach. Today, I’d like to share with you the six most powerful teachings this brilliantly insightful and inspiring man imparted to so many.

Free Will Universe
Understanding the dynamics of our Free Will Universe is a key to unlocking all spiritual challenges and mysteries. Simplifying our knowledge of Polarity and Duality, Good vs. Evil, and Lessons / Experiences creates a compelling perspective for spiritual growth. The first distortion is free will, or finity, or the limit of the viewpoint. The created universe we experience is the Creator’s exploration of Itself through the first distortion, which Ra also calls the Law of Confusion. Ra defines free will as the recognition “that the Creator will know Itself” The Logos (The Second Distortion) The second distortion is Love, or the Logos, or the Creative Principle. It is “the focus, the choice of attack, the type of energy of an extremely, shall we say, high order which causes intelligent energy to be formed from the potential of intelligent infinity in just such and such a way.”. A Logos can create a single star system or it can create a galaxy with billions of star systems. Each galaxy has its own system of natural laws and, I believe, its own “cosmic mind”. Ra says that some of its members have wandered to the creations of other Logoi, and that the “experience has been one which staggers the intellectual and intuitive capacities.” In the case of galactic systems, the first physical manifestation of a Logos is a cluster of central systems.

The Grand Experiment | The Game
Infinite Creators desire for companionship and experience. The Laws of the Universe, Creation, and Human DNA. The Game or A Series of Incarnations within the Games inside the Grand Experiment. Descending and Ascending through dimensions and densities of vibrational frequencies. Illusion; since all is one, all manifestation, or appearance of many-ness, is an illusion. According to Ra, it is an illusion carefully engineered in order to give the Creator the opportunity to know Itself. The Veil; our Logos wanted to give the Creator the highest quality experience of Itself possible. It and other Logoi therefore carefully veiled the subconscious and deep minds from the conscious mind in third density. This precipitated a movement towards seeking and away from the condition of Edenic contentment that existed in the creations of earlier Logoi. The result of this experiment has been a more vivid, varied, and intense experience of the Creator by the Creator.

The Event
We analyze the end times destabilization of geopolitical, geophysical and human psychic evidence for competing timelines in order to map or guide us into the Event. Compression Breakthrough of cascading event; global economic, mass shortages, etc… Humanity requires the threat of total annihilation or precipice of destruction to change or spiritually evolve.
Densities last for pre-determined lengths of time. At the end of the allotted time, there is a “harvest,” in which those who have learned the lessons of the density graduate to the following density. Those who have not learned the lessons repeat the density. The requirement for graduation from third density is having chosen a path of service (to self or to others).
The 75,000-year time period for Earth’s third density is at an end. According to Ra, the year 2011 was “an appropriate probable/possible time/space nexus for harvest.” However, Ra has difficulty calculating time and is not confident making predictions. Nonetheless, the “cycles move as precisely as a clock strikes your hour. Thus, the gateway from intelligent energy to intelligent infinity opens regardless of circumstance on the striking of the hour.” The “possibility/probability vortices” indicate that the transition to fourth density will take from 100 to 700 years. However, this “cannot be accurate due to the volatility of your peoples at this space/time.”
-
Ascension Cycles, Timelines & Evidence
Ascension is the ending of cycles that brings about planetary movement through a higher density and expansion of consciousness. We analyze the geophysical evidence and competing timelines that map or guide us into The Event that influences the Ascension Timeline. This evidence is readily available if you know what to look for and are willing to look in order to be informed.
Just as a magnet has two poles, the positive and the negative, so does consciousness. In consciousness, the poles are the paths of service to others and service to self. The goal of third density is to choose a path of service. In order to choose the positive path, at least 51 percent of our thoughts and actions must be dedicated to the service of others. For the negative path, we must be at least 95% self-serving. Between the two lies “the sinkhole of indifference.”. Most people are far along their path before they realize that they have made a choice.
-
Law of One
The One Infinite Creator; the Law of One states that there is only one, and that one is the Infinite Creator, which Ra also calls “Infinite Intelligence” and “Intelligent Infinity.” It is impossible to describe the “one undifferentiated intelligent infinity, unpolarized, full and whole” but It can be activated or potentiated. Each portion of the creation contains, paradoxically, the whole. Law of One Link
As you go through this Practice Report, take your time to study and review each month’s new articles and videos. To begin this process, one must have a foundation or historical perspective to comprehend how all the pieces of the ascension process fit together. This journey requires you to review a considerable amount of information so you are able to comprehend and discern the information. This allows you to more fully understand your personal path of Spiritual Practice and Awakening. Recap/Summary of Action Steps / Daily Journaling / Meditation / 5D Awareness & Vibrational Frequency

Daily Practice Guidelines
The Observer / Forgiveness / Releasing / Breathing Meditation / Heart Conscious
The Art of Forgiveness has been reduced to little more than a passing acknowledgment. We have little understanding of the sub-unconscious mind and its ego-resistant programming. A high vibrational frequency is key to stepping out of the matrix, manifesting a positive timeline, and achieving ascension. A daily practice of being the observer, utilizing releasing tools, and incorporating forgiveness will help you achieve and maintain this frequency. We recognize the human experience is an arduous, challenging journey and not for the faint of heart. Finding and staying on one’s path is an elusive proposition at best. Then compiling layers of karma (accumulation of poor choices) requires ongoing observation of one’s negative thoughts and repeated efforts/work to depolarize one’s negative mental atmosphere. The mastery of any practice is in the daily use and development of reliable tools that create lasting and effective results. We describe Phase II practice as a full Emotional Reset.
-
The Observer
Step 1: is becoming aware of your mental thought atmosphere by tracking your emotions, most notably your negative thoughts attached to said negative emotions. Once you’ve identified the negative emotions tied to a negative thought then you can backtrack that thought to its origin. This could include a past traumatic event, or dramatic experience tied to fear. Most all negative experiences include another human being or a primary family member. The more you practice being the observer of your thoughts the more you can set your intention to release these negative experiences.
The 7 Observer Senses: 1. Touch, 2. Smell, 3. Sight, 4. Hearing, 5. Taste, 6. Intuition, 7. Feelings
SELF LOVE PRACTICE; The primary lesson we’re here to learn is how to “Love Ourselves”. This begins with moving our awareness down to our heart space, then consciously resting that awareness on our chest. Be the Observer and see yourself holding that space for a few minutes at a time. This space allows acceptance of ourselves just the way we are, without judgment. See what arises out of being in your heart space, especially in regard to your inner voice. Talking or having a conversation with the universe starts with our listening first.
SELF-TALK OBSERVATION & PRACTICE; The primary purpose and lesson of our journey is to learn how to communicate authentically with ourselves. Are we Responding instead of Reacting to events and emotions in our everyday lives. Do we treat ourselves with kindness and respect? Are our observations coming from our heart space and not our ego? Do we trust in ourselves completely? These are a few questions that allows you to put into “Practice” Self-Talk Observation.
-
Ego-Conscious Monkey Mind vs. Heart-Conscious Mind
Step 2: moving out of your Ego $ Conscious Monkey Mind and into your Heart Conscious Mind. Simply practice placing your consciousness over your heart. Using active thought, move your awareness from your mind space down into your heart space. Acknowledge this feeling and become in tune with what heart consciousness feels like when you are in this space. There is no tougher task than taming the wild uncontrollable beast, the ego $ conscious monkey mind.
-
Transformational Breathing Meditation
Step 3: once you’ve identified the source of any negative emotions, event, and relationship, and successfully moved the the thought into your heart space, begin your Transformational Breathing breath work now. This is one of the primary core tools or disciplines to set the mind/body/spirit complex up for internal spiritual work.
VIOLET FLAME OF LIGHT PRACTICE; Violet flame meditation is a visualization meditation technique that harnesses the power of the violet flame. Violet flame has various other names, including the “Flame of Transmutation,” “Flame of Mercy,” “Flame of Freedom,” and “Flame of Forgiveness. The Violet flame is the powerful symbol of the spiritual fire of self-transformation. It is a sacred fire with transformative spiritual energy that can help us move through many obstacles and challenges. It is believed that violet flame can heal many issues, including physical ailments, strong negative emotions, negative thoughts, and even relationship problems.

Forgiveness Practice Tools
BEGIN EACH FORGIVENESS PRACTICE SESSION WITH A STATEMENT OF LOVE: As you identify the person or situation you desire to forgive, start first with the intention of love for the other person or situation you are focusing on. Then, focus your intention on yourself and begin the process of loving yourself. This can also be done to clear any issues with your inner child. By sending love to others, yourself, and your inner child, you change the energy and frequency of your thoughts and heart.
Step 4: forgiveness involves changing your perception of what happened. We suggest using the Sedona Method technique; Use the statements of “Could I FORGIVE ________ / Would I FORGIVE ______ / WHEN!”. We recommend using this tool three times on each negative emotion, event, or person. We can also recommend using the tapping method for releasing. One must differentiate between forgiveness of Others and forgiveness of Self, with both being necessary.
– Mahatma Gandhi This feeling state of choosing to love, rather than being resentful, takes you to a higher vibrational level of the Law of Attraction to attract good things to you. It’s a win-win for YOU. As regards the other person, that is not your business.
Cobra Forgiveness Protocol:
This protocol will help you releasing past grudges and resentments. Please repeat the following mantra three times:
“I decree and command to release all my conflicts with myself, with my parents, with my children (if you have them), with my partner (if you have one), with my friends, with Lightworkers, and with all other people. I decide forgiveness”
Then, close your eyes. Visualize the Violet flame coming from the sky, going through you, releasing all the conflicts. Throw every conflict into the Violet flame and let it go. Whenever you are ready, open your eyes.

Releasing Practice Tools
Step 5: we suggest using the Sedona Method technique; Use the statements of “Could I RELEASE ________ / Would I RELEASE ______ / WHEN!”. We recommend using this tool three times on each negative emotion, event, or person. We can also recommend using the tapping method for releasing. Combine all three practice tools; Transformational Breathing, Focus on inhale, then use the Forgiveness & Releasing tools on the exhale.
The QIGONG PRACTICE: We suggest the practice habit of Qigong, taken from the 3,000 yr Taoist Energy Teachings. This clears all energy blocks and helps focus your intentions.. A Key practice habit to elevating your vibrational frequency

Look for synchronicities, healings, spiritual gift activations, expansion of intuition, telepathy, telekinesis, new conscious downloads and uploads of new information.
VOLUNTEERING; There is no better Positive Mental Atmosphere Practice than giving back through volunteering. In fact, research has consistently shown that volunteering can have a multitude of benefits for mental health and overall well-being. Not only does volunteering provide a sense of purpose and fulfillment, but it also allows individuals to connect with others and develop meaningful relationships. The act of helping others can also give people a sense of control and positively impact feelings of self-worth. In addition to the personal benefits, volunteering can also have a ripple effect on society as a whole. By giving back to the community and supporting important causes, volunteers can help to create a stronger, more connected community and promote positive change. When it comes to volunteering, there are countless opportunities available. Whether it’s helping out at a local food bank, volunteering at a shelter, or even just lending a helping hand to a neighbor in need, every act of kindness and generosity can make a real difference. So if you’re looking to boost your mood, improve your mental health, and make a positive impact on your community, consider volunteering your time and skills. Not only will you be making a difference in the lives of others, but you’ll also be reaping the many personal benefits that come with giving back.

“Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift of God, which is why we call it the present.” ― Bill Keane
Our 3D experiences are the primary tools used in aiding us as we move through our incarnations in 3rd Density lessons. The souls choice and decision to ascend is based on that soul’s completion of its 100s of 1000s of lessons and experiences. The Games represent unique lifetimes tailored to each set of experiences lived in The Grand Experiment. At the end of each 26,000-year cycle of incarnations, it is the soul’s opportunity to advance into a higher range in frequencies and vibrations. Once the collective awareness of one’s soul, spirit, and higher self has exhausted, self-examined and mastered a satisfactory number of lessons, then and only then, does the soul choose to move on. Following is a series of 7 unique experience that verify and emphasize the soul’s choice to ascend.

Exiting 3D Movie Matrix
Your awakening experience will expose the 3D movie-matrix lies and false constructs. Once the hologram is exposed and the true reality is discovered, there is no turning back. Known as “crossing the truth bridge of no return”.

Synchronicities
Random connections or crossing paths with like-minded individuals. Creating in-the-moment learning experiences that change the course or direction of your life. Being “Present” is communicating with the Universe. There is no such thing as coincidence, everything is connected. Take note of signs / numbers. 11:11, 2:22, 3:33, 4:44

Living from Your Heart | Heart Expansion & Awareness;
Living and experiencing from the heart is a challenge or better yet a mystery. We are taught from childhood that everything inside relates to our brain, mind, or on the outside. The heart space is connected to the universe, the infinite creator, and all consciousness life. Live from your heart instead of your mind/ego. (conversations with the universe)
How to be of Service to Others. “The best way of service to others is the constant attempt to seek to share the love of the Creator as it is known to the inner self. This involves self knowledge and the ability to open the self to the other-self without hesitation. This involves, shall we say, radiating that which is the essence or the heart of the mind/body/spirit complex.”
Conversations With the Universe; The key to engaging the Universe is the “Art of Observing” and synchronistic listening. One method is to ask three questions before falling asleep, then holding those as an intention over the next few days while looking for responses from the Universe. This is where synchronicities and “Being the Observer” come into play. Responses from the Universe could be in the form of a conversation, article, video, email and/or downloads as your heart space and awareness expands.

Finding Your Tribe
The last step in the Awakening Practice is finding your way to your true home or your tribe. Any 3D tribe represents a gathering of Souls transitioning to the new earth. This requires relocation and moving to safe zones, especially during coming times of isolation and challenging times for humanity.
Experiencing Levels of Realization
Realizing who we are and what our essence is can help us live the lives we were created to enjoy and participate in. Creator consciousness constantly expands and enhances all beings. We have forgotten this to the extent that we have eliminated our innate creator consciousness from our awareness. We must live in ego-consciousness in the awareness of duality and degradation through entropy.
We can learn to read the energy of everything in any situation. We can learn to transform negative energy to its positive counterpart or resolve it into another dimension. Our situation can consist of grateful and joyous experiences in interaction with all that comes into our awareness. We can direct these feelings to our awareness, establishing a high-vibration state of being. In any situation we can intentionally interact in alignment with our heart-consciousness, knowing that we have infinite creative power.
Threats to our well-being or so-called accidents do not exist in the heart-consciousness dimension. We can be completely and intentionally creative in all aspects of life. We can learn to direct our attention entirely to the kinds of situations that we love. As we pay attention to how we want to imagine everything that we are aware of, we can intentionally modulate the energetic patterns around us into alignment with our intuitive knowing. We can be affected only by energies that we accept into our awareness and pay attention to. We are energy modulators and experience creators. This is what we do all the time, whether we are aware of it or not. We are constantly creating the qualities of our experiences by how we choose to be in every moment.
Where we are and what we are doing matters on an energetic level, but not necessarily on a physical level. It is our vibratory level that determines how smoothly our life goes. It is not important if we have a job or a business or any socially-acceptable style of life. What matters is the vibratory spectrum of our energetic signature. Our sustenance comes to us naturally at the level of our vibrations. This level is completely subject to our personal direction and choice. How we choose to feel in any moment is important for our creative direction.
When we are Self-Realized, we are infinitely powerful creators with our intentional visionary and emotional abilities. We can realize that the experiences that we love the most are the ones in alignment with our heart-consciousness. With all of our needs fulfilled, we are free to create a world of experiences that express the energy of our heart. Since these vibrations are unknown to ego-consciousness, we must open our awareness to heart-felt feelings and thoughts about everything and everyone. Heart-felt energy is life-enhancing in every way. It is true creative energy that we can be aware of within our greater consciousness.

My awakening was abrupt, as if a light turned on. Granted, I needed a slight nudge but the peace I have in reconnecting to my soul is indescribable. I’ve been on this journey since spring of 2022 and I can definitely say my life my life has changed in such a positive way. There have been great days and many challenging days as well, but through it all, there is an inner peace and knowing that this is the correct path in my soul’s journey. Having a strong framework of tools with the Great Awakening Report has truly been invaluable. I began with the 12-part series, The Awakening Journey, which allowed me the structure to decide where I wanted to go – based on what resonated with me. Honestly, the areas that didn’t resonate with me initially are now areas of focus. “Connecting the Dots” is an ongoing process and doing the “Work” (being the observer, heart-consciousness, forgiveness, releasing, meditation) is now a part of my daily life. I’m grateful to be on this journey and I hope to be a positive force through the Work. The “Bridge” (to truth and awareness) was crossed and there’s no turning back. – Lorie

I cannot pinpoint what exactly sparked my awakening, but the seed was planted when I was young.
My creativity confirmed the existence of another ‘aspect’ of myself that was guiding me. I trusted that voice.
I saw the world differently from the people around me. I was surprised that they had no questions about life. I always wanted to know Why?
Living in the energy of that question kept me curious for richer experiences and set me on my quest for truth, which over my lifetime has exposed me to a wealth of modalities.
A personal awakening journey is as fascinating as it is frustrating. It’s often 2 steps forward and ten steps back, yet my resolve will never die.
For so long I could not understand why I always felt like an outsider however at this point in time I see every event in my life was necessary and perfectly timed.Awakening is more than being red-pilled to the machinations of the control grid in this world. That is the first base.
Once you start to see what the world is and is not, you will realise that the change you desire in the world can only be created from a change within yourself.And then the endless work begins.
