15 “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 “For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. 17 “And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.” –1 John 2:15-17 (KJV, public domain)
Dear Ones,
In the below passage, Madame Blavatsky speaks about the perils of practicing the occult arts for selfish reasons, such as sensual gratification, lust, or for egoic reasons. I noticed these statements in particular …
“… although it is the intention that decides primarily whether white or black magic is exercised, yet the results even of involuntary, unconscious sorcery cannot fail to be productive of bad Karma. Enough has been said to show that sorcery is any kind of evil influence exercised upon other persons, who suffer, or make other persons suffer, in consequence.”
Note how she says that a person’s intention determines whether white or black magic is being practiced. By that she no doubt means that the intention of black magic is to make other people suffer. My understanding is that white magic, in contrast, is practiced to help people feel better; to relieve them of suffering.
Note how she speaks of involuntary, or unconscious sorcery, and how it results in bad karma. To her statement I would like to add, that when we set out to learn sorcery, whether white or black, we convey this learning about manipulating the Plane of Forces to our own subconscious mind, our own Inner Child, what is sometimes called our Lower Mental Body.
What our Inner Child does with this powerful art at moments when we lapse into a subconscious state, such as …
when we watch television,
or lapse into reverie or a daydreaming state,
or have even tiny taste of the mildest mind-altering drug,
or begin to doze off,
and also during our nightly dreamtime life
… is willy nilly and without any doubt, unconscious black magic sorcery. The karmic effect can be excruciating. For instance,
It can result in the death of a dear friend, or of a spouse, without our knowing our own subconscious mind is the cause.
It can result in the degradation of the astral matter of our friends and associates, through our own repressed emotions of anger, fear, or desire for vengeance.
It can result in our own body falling ill, or even succumbing to a fatal illness.
There is, in fact, no knowing to what results this knowledge will lead, in those moments when the subconscious mind gains the upper hand in our moments of momentary weakness.
Dear Ones, I am not just idly speculating on these outcomes. I am not being sensationalistic. Rather, in the past few decades, through clair hearing and clair vision, I have seen these outcomes happening to a broad range of people, over and over again. It is just as likely to happen among those who pursue the spiritual path, as with those who are content with a family and work-a-day life.
The solution, I feel, is to leave the occult arts alone, and to turn instead to a life of devotion. Let it be the very highest form of devotion of which we, in this lifetime, are capable. Let us place God first in our lives, and through Him, may we love and serve all humankind. May we ask God to bless our friends and family with unconditional love. May we live to our highest ideals of peace and truth, courage and wisdom, rejoicing in the beauty of Creation.

ON THE PERILS OF PRACTICING THE OCCULT ARTS FOR SELFISH REASONS
by Madame Blavatsky (1)
“… whoever indulges, after having pledged himself tooccultism, in the gratification of a terrestrial love or lust, must feel an almost immediate result; that of being irresistibly dragged from the impersonal divine state down to the lower plane of matter.
“Sensual, or even mental self-gratification, involves the immediate loss of the powers of spiritual discernment; the voice of the master can no longer be distinguished from that of one’s passions or even that of a Dugpa; the right from wrong; sound morality from mere casuistry. The Dead Sea fruit assumes the most glorious mystic appearance, only to turn to ashes on the lips, and to gall in the heart, resulting in:—
“Depth ever deepening, darkness
“darkening still; “Folly for wisdom, guilt for innocence; “Anguish for rapture, and for hope despair.” (2)
“And once being mistaken and having acted on their mistakes, most men shrink from realizing their error, and thus descend deeper and deeper into the mire. And, although it is the intention that decides primarily whether white or black magic is exercised, yet the results even of involuntary, unconscious sorcery cannot fail to be productive of bad Karma.
“Enough has been said to show that sorcery is any kind of evil influence exercised upon other persons, who suffer, or make other persons suffer, in consequence. Karma is a heavy stone splashed in the quiet waters of Life; and it must produce ever widening circles of ripples, carried wider and wider, almost ad infinitum. Such causes produced have to call forth effects, and these are evidenced in the just laws of Retribution.
“Much of this may be avoided if people will only abstain from rushing into practices neither the nature nor importance of which they understand. No one is expected to carry a burden beyond his strength and powers.
“There are ‘natural-born magicians’; Mystics and Occultists by birth, and by right of direct inheritance from a series of incarnations and aeons of suffering and failures. These are passion-proof, so to say. No fires of earthly origin can fan into a flame any of their senses or desires; no human voice can find response in their souls, except the great cry of Humanity. These only may be certain of success. But they can be met only far and wide, and they pass through the narrow gates of Occultism because they carry no personal luggage of human transitory sentiments along with them. They have got rid of the feeling of the lower personality, paralysed thereby the ‘astral’ animal, and the golden, but narrow gate is thrown open before them.
“Not so with those who have to carry yet for several incarnations the burden of sins committed in previous lives, and even in their present existence. For such, unless they proceed with great caution, the golden gate of Wisdom may get transformed into the wide gate and the broad way ‘that leadeth unto destruction,’ and therefore ‘many be they that enter in thereby.’ This is the Gate of the Occult arts, practised for selfish motives and in the absence of the restraining and beneficent influence of Âtma-Vidyâ.
“We are in the Kali Yuga and its fatal influence is a thousand-fold more powerful in the West than it is in the East; hence the easy preys made by the Powers of the Age of Darkness in this cyclic struggle, and the many delusions under which the world is now laboring.
“One of these is the relative facility with which men fancy they can get at the ‘Gate’ and cross the threshold of Occultism without any great sacrifice. It is the dream of most Theosophists, one inspired by desire for Power and personal selfishness, and it is not such feelings that can ever lead them to the coveted goal. For, as well said by one believed to have sacrificed himself for Humanity—’Strait is the gate and narrow is the way which leadeth unto life’ eternal, and therefore ‘few there be that find it.’ (Matt. vii, 14) So strait indeed, that at the bare mention of some of the preliminary difficulties the affrighted Western candidates turn back and retreat with a shudder….
“Let them stop here and attempt no more in their great weakness. For if, while turning their backs on the narrow gate, they are dragged by their desire for the Occult one step in the direction of the broad and more inviting gates of that golden mystery which glitters in the light of illusion, woe to them! It can lead only to Dugpa-ship, and they will be sure to find themselves very soon landed on that Via Fatale of the Inferno, over whose portal Dante read the words:—
“Per me si va nella citta dolente “Per me si va nell’ eterno dolore “Per me si va tra la perduta gente….”
[“Through me you go to the grief wracked city;
“Through me you go to everlasting pain;
“Through me you go a pass among lost souls.”] (3)

SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO
Dear Ones,
When we get familiar with our Inner Child (our Lower Mental Body), then we can unite the desires of the child with the wisdom of our adult years (our Higher Mental Body), and our behavior, as views from a neutral standpoint, will become much more consistent.
This video has a technique for getting familiar with our Inner Child. There is an edited Summary after the video …

SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO
Hello, Dear Ones, It’s Alice. I Am of the Stars.
I have a supplemental technique for uniting the Lower Mental Body with the Higher Mental Body. As you may recall, another name for the Lower Mental Body (which is a term of the School of Theosophy) is the ‘inner child’ or the ‘lost child of the Soul’, which is a term from psychology and family counseling.
The idea is to become one. The reason for that is that, unless we are one, we will go through life with inconsistency in our behavior. Our Lower Mental Body, our inner child, will be asking us to behave in one way, and the rational mind … the Higher Mental Body … will demand that we act in another way.
The result will be inconsistent behavior. There will be times when our Lower Mental Body gets the upper hand and acts on its own desires, and other times when the rational mind takes over, like Spock in Star Trek.
When the two are united, the heart center … the center between the two … will become the governing force. The heat will act as one; and we will be able to consistently follow the heart. The heart has the strength of electromagnetic field energy to unite these two, the Lower and the Higher Mental Body.
So that is logic behind the dictum to ‘follow the heart’: It allows us to lead a consistent life, a united and harmonious life.
I thought of another technique to make this happen. This will work if you remember how you looked at the age of one year, two years, five years, eight years … or if you have pictures of that. It is better if you have photos; you can put the photos on your bedroom mirror or on your bathroom mirror and look at them every day; just gaze at the pictures of how you looked at those different ages.
If you do not have photographs you can draw pictures of how you looked, or you can find pictures on the internet that look like that, if they remind you of that at that age. You can put those up on your bedroom mirror or your bathroom mirror, and look at them every day. Maybe every night when you go to sleep would be good; or every morning when you get up.
Sooner or later what that will do is, it will start the remembering of how it was at those different ages, and the remembering of all the unsolved problems and dilemmas of those times. That will come up for solution through the feeling realm. Through the heart, you will come to an understanding of how that was, and how it is today, and how it can all be better.
I hope you like this idea. It is another technique that works very well, I feel.

SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO
Hello, Dear Ones, It’s Alice. I Am of the Stars.
I just wanted to clarify a little about what it is that is meant by the Lower Mental Body. What we have in our Lower Mental Body is actually the sum total of all our memories and emotions that we had as children before we attained the Age of Reason … the Age of Reason being the age at which the logical left brain starts entering that mental picture.
What we have in the inner child … the Lower Mental Body … is actually a person. It is the person that we were for those many years, including all our infancy experiences, toddler experiences, and young child experiences; all of them. There is an actual, separate person there … as it were … that became caged up … or silenced … or pinned down … or bottled up by our logical brain when that took over our understanding …

So there is a vast richness of childhood experiences waiting to be discovered by us and set free and integrated with the rest of our memories. Lots of times people wait … and do not even bother for decades … I have heard this so many times, because clairaudiently I hear the Lower Mental Body chatter as well as the Higher Mental Body chatter.
So many times I hear this plaintive cry … something like: He forgot all about me! He won’t talk to me! He doesn’t love me! … and all this. It is really heartbreaking to hear what these inner children are thinking … set aside, as they are, for all these years of our adulthood.
And then sometimes people wait until their Higher Mental Bodies start to falter … until, in old age … for instance, they have Alzheimer’s, or whatever it is … And at that point the memories of their childhood flood back in, and the Lower Mental Body takes over again, and they become like children.
It is not that they have lost their sense of history. It is not like they have lost their sense of all the memories in adulthood. But rather, they have regained the richness and joy and spontaneity of early childhood.
We can do that; we can regain that. And we can keep what we have. And we can attain what is called Unified Mind. It is really such a cool prospect, and one that more and more people are deciding to undertake. What an amazing prospect!

More on the Inner Child
On the bright side of the personality, these terms relate to the Inner Child: Lower Mental Body, gut brain, lower triangle, vital body, and desire elemental.
And on the shadow side of the personality, these terms relate to the Inner Child: lost children of the Soul, repressed childhood memories, and Soul wounding.
Here are pictures of a mother relating to her daughter, and a man relating to his son, in the same way that a relationship can be consciously developed between our Higher Mental Body and our Inner Child. After childhood wounding is healed, the love that develops between the two, the grown-up person and the Inner Child, creates a state of Unified Mind in which emotions are more easily acknowledged and expressed, and a person is able to ‘go with the flow’, coursing through the hours, whether waking or sleeping, like a river of joyful Awareness.

SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO
Hello, Dear Ones, It’s Alice. I Am of the Stars.
I thought I would go into a little more detail about the nature of the relationship between the Lower Mental Body and the Higher Mental Body. It goes like this …
Characteristics and Limitations of the Mind of the Small Child The Lower Mental Body is like a child before it reaches the age of reason.
When we are small, before we reach the age of reason … when we are little children; toddlers, say … there is a type of intelligence we have, that everybody loves. If you think back to relationship we have with children of that age … to the way that they feel and think and respond to our talking to them and our holding them and feeding them, and so forth, you will begin to understand the nature of the Lower Mental Body.
You may recall that a child of that age needs to be told things again and again, because its memory is not very great. It has some memory of things, especially things like sleeping and eating and walking and so forth; but not so much of a memory of the type of facts that grownups cotton to … things like dates and schedules and calendars … things like timelines, for instance.
It knows about Christmas, because of the feelings associated with Christmas; but typically does not know when Christmas will be … how long from now that might be. So it has no notion of timelines and historical perspective … although it likes to hear stories about that. It likes to hear about how things were, long ago, and so forth.
Also, it does not have much of an ability to reason things through … to work with logic. The left brain, I guess, is not very developed. But intuition is there; that is the right brain, right? And so very young children generally cannot work out problems of math, and usually cannot do geometry. They can play music, because music is kind of a bridge between left-brain mathematics and the intuitive, feeling world.
They also do not have a strong grasp of what is socially acceptable, and what is not; although, from an early age, parents take pains to help them to understand what will help them to get along in society, and what behaviors will not.
So that time before the age of reason … which is maybe eight or nine years of age; maybe a little different … before the age of reason, a child can be instructed in what I would call character or morality … the social niceties. And then after that age begins the formal education in things like mathematics and science, and so forth.
You will also recall how spontaneously the toddler laughs, and how infectious that is; if the toddler laughs, everyone in the room might start laughing too. And how lovable they are … incredibly lovable. And how sweet; how they reflect their moods without a social mask. So for instance, if they get very angry, everyone in the room knows about it.
It takes love and hugs and that kind of thing to calm them down and to bring them back from tears to laughter. So … physical contact … tactile contact … physical stimulation … are extremely important to the toddler’s development. Let’s see what else …
The tone of voice that we use to the toddler is also very important. Moms often have this down. They know exactly which tone of voice to use, to make the child understand that it is deeply loved, so that it can get over its fears … to admonish the child, in case they need to do that, in such a way that it is not destructive to the child’s self-esteem, but still prevents the behavior that must stop from occurring. Yes? So moms have a well modulated way of inculcating social values and morals and so forth. They do it in such a way that the child is not Soul-wounded by the experience.
Now there is always room, in every child’s young life, for a slip-up on the part of the parents, is there not? And parents, without a doubt … down here in this realm of Duality … are bound to slip up occasionally. And so the minor instances, where a parent well meaning and certainly well intended, slips up during a child’s very early youth … those are what we call Soul wounding that the child carries.
So that is what I have to say on the Lower Mental Body, which we all experience in the first few years of our life.
Qualities of the Left Brain, Which Takes Over When the Age of Reason Is Attained
Then when the age of reason is reached, the left brain kicks in; and the left brain typically … because of social approval … peer approval … and especially parental authority, school authority, school teacher approval … the left brain has a tendency to take over, and leave behind the feeling world of childhood.
The truth of the matter is, as the age of reason hits us we become much less lovable. [laughs] And that is because we are hiding behind a social mask. We are calculating what might happen in the future, and figuring out what happened in the past, instead of living in the moment. And we tend to delay our joys, and not follow our heart, because of our notion of timelines.
The Faultiness of the Typical Social Construct Is the Presumption That a Person Has Only One Timeline This is the notion upon which the left brain bases its decisions on actions in the world.
Timelines are a very interesting and helpful concept for humankind; but not the kind of timeline that we employ after we reach the age of reason. This is because the social construct of timelines is faulty. And I have discussed this in other blogs.
But basically, we can pick whatever timeline we want. We can jump timelines, into any time that we want. We can merge old timelines that are of no value to us, with Awareness timelines that we really like.
So the concept of a static timeline with karmic implications is not very useful now, after the 2012 Shift. Now we have the realm of all possibilities, and we have the ability to jump to any alternate timeline that we wish.
The Further Left Brain Notion That the Child Must Take the Consequences of His Actions for the Rest of His Life
To get back to the poor child, after the age of reason, stuck in the notion that there is only one timeline, and that here he or she has to take the consequences of his or her actions for the rest of his or her life … that they can come to decisions in the world that are incontrovertibly detrimental to them … that they can make fatal mistakes, and that they had better watch out, or else!
Some say: Or else they will go to hell! And others say: Or else they will go to prison! And others say: Or else they will be sent to a mental institution! Or else that they had better see a psychologist or psychiatrist! Or else that they will be sent to detention hall! Or else that they will be flunked out of school! Or else that all kinds of terrible things can happen to a child that does not do what he or she is supposed to do! Right?
These two faulty notions: that of the timeline ‘graven in stone’ and that of the karmic trap we create through our actions, take much of the joy out of our existence, and prevent us from following the heart … for there is that fear; that constant fear of acting in the world in conflict with societal expectations.
On Rediscovering the Inner Child After decades, when one remembers one’s childhood, one may begin to heal childhood upsets, befriend the inner child, and accept the spontaneity, joy, and laughter of the Lower Mental Body.
The years go on, for this young person who has reached the age of reason. Then … they might be in their twenties or thirties, or much later … they may remember their childhood way of being, and begin to realize that all the neuronal learning … all the wiring for the type of behavior and the ability to receive and project joy, that they experienced in their early years, still exists … basically in the lower intestine, in that area of the body, as the Lower Mental Body.
Some call this ‘getting in touch with the inner child’; it is the same thing. We begin to remember how we were; and we begin to accept all the spontaneity, all the joy and laughter and happiness … just the total joie de vivre of that child … and incorporate it in our own essence.
Unified Mind The left and right brain, the voluntary and involuntary nervous system … all the neurons of the body, can become one Unified Mind.
In this way the left brain and the right brain join through the corpus callosum. And the neurons of those areas of the head and of the spinal column join with the ‘outer’ neurons … the neurons of the intestine and the other internal organs, and so forth. It all becomes Awareness. We become aware of all these portions of our nervous system … the autonomic nervous system, the involuntary nervous system, the voluntary nervous system … We have a lot of ways of describing all this; but basically, all the nervous system becomes one.
The Boundary Area Between the ‘Child Within’ and the Higher Mind: Where Astral Chatter Arises Prior to Attaining Unified Mind We may hear this in our own energy field, or in that of a friend or family member, and mistakenly think it is the voice of a stranger.
Sometimes, people become aware of the ‘child within’ … the Lower Mental Body … first, on the clair plane … in themselves. Or more likely, they will clair hear the ‘child within’ their significant other. They may think that their significant other is actually talking to a third party, when in fact, in a pretty much subconscious way … at the borderline between consciousness (which is the Higher Mental Body) and unconsciousness (which is the repressed area of the Lower Mental Body), that ‘astral chatter’ arises in the significant other.
There, in that borderline area of communication … through your own tutelage, or through their own leap into Awareness of Unified Mind … they can become aware of what is going on in the Lower Mental Body.
Do not make the mistake of thinking that they are talking to someone else. They are just coming to consciousness of their own second self … their own ‘better half’, as it were.
As the Boundary Area Begins to Break Down, We Begin to Hear the Voice of the Inner Child It is not a stranger to be put off, ridiculed, or ignored. The way to get rid of the voice is to offer the inner child unconditional love, and an open astral ear.
I hope this helps in an understanding of what many people are now going through; coming into contact with maybe the ‘sulky’ child, or the child throwing a tantrum, or the little child hiding away and certain that he or she will never be loved. I hope it helps in speaking to that child; reassuring it that it that that child will always be loved … more than anything! … better than anything! … unconditionally loved.
I hope in helps in just listening to that child … as was not done very often, in early childhood. Mom just does not have time to listen to all that prattle, you know? There is a very great deal of talking that needs to be heard from the Lower Mental Body, by the Higher Mental Body. So … with patience … with love … we can come to the fullness of understanding of who we are, in the mental realms.
Tiny Electric Charges Going Off In Abdomen After the inner child’s voice is heard, and after it becomes certain that it is loved, that small voice within becomes quiet. Then when one calls the inner child, the energy of the Lower Mental Body may be felt as pinpoints of light or tiny electric charges, that surge upward to the heart.
I ought to talk for a minute or two about what happened to me after I became more familiar with my Lower Mental Body, my ‘inner child’. We had a few talks, over a few days, and then a week or so later. And then after that it seemed like the emotional affect that had been left over from childhood mellowed out … as if the personality of the inner child changed, and became more trusting and loving and open.
I began to sense tiny electric charges going off in my colon and then my other internal organs. When I called the inner child, I could feel the electric energy … I could pinpoint sensations of electric energy coursing up, to meet in and meld with my heart.
It became less of an experience of a personality there (as in the beginning), than of a unifying of a field of energy that had to do with the electrical operation of the neurons in my body … both in my head and in my spine, and in various places elsewhere. This sensation of all that becoming united, I call the experience of Unified Mind.
The Sound of the Voice and the Emotion Conveyed Are of Paramount Importance When Talking to the Inner Child
One thing that I have found out about my inner child, is that the sound of my voice, and the emotion I am conveying, are the most important thing. When I speak to my inner child, what I am trying to convey a feeling of enthusiastic love … the kind of love that lasts forever … the kind of love that no circumstance will ever contravene … the kind of love that a mom has while playing with her young child. It is this, the sound of the voice, and the emotion conveyed, that heal the inner child.
Here are an image and a video of a mom talking to her young child … just to give a notion of the way that the voice sounds, and the types of words that are used, which are so effective in healing the inner child, the child within …
Video: Mom talking to baby, by Danielle Lowe, 19 July 2015 … https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdLKpxktJB4... Notice the eye contact, the emotional content, and the way the voices sound. Notice the mom’s repetitive phrases, and the baby’s very simple replies.
I call them the ‘lost children of the Soul,’ as we may have more than one … a couple … or one that keeps changing, expressing childhood wounding situations.

On Reading or Singing to Our Inner Child. There may be those who just do not like that idea of talking baby talk like that, or just do not have the experience. And so I have another idea for developing a friendship with the inner child … one that anybody in the whole, wide world can do …
When we were young, most of us enjoyed hearing nursery rhymes and the golden books … the children’s stories … that our parents read to us. And that inner child that is within our gut … down in our ‘lower triangle’ … still remembers those stories. So a fail-safe way of developing this relationship … this unified mind … is to find some children’s books … some nursery rhymes and children’s stories … and then just read them ourselves, maybe right before bedtime. Guaranteed to work, over time!
This is the last thing along those lines; and that lullabies and songs from childhood … to buy some of those old CDs with the lullabies and songs on them, and play them right before bedtime.
These are some of the many ways to befriend the Lower Mental Body: Enthusiastic, motherly ‘baby talk’; singing it little made-up songs; reciting nursery rhymes and children’s stories; or playing lullabies and songs from childhood. I believe, amongst all those tools, there will be something that is bound to work for you.
On Visualizing a Little Child Sitting on Our Lap. As you employ these techniques, imagine and visualize that you actually have a little child sitting on your lap. Imagine it is smiling and laughing happily as you talk to it or sing to it. This act of visualization is very important to the technique, as it brings forth the wholeness of feeling from your energy field that will be needed for the transformation and unification process to take place.
In love, light and joy

The phrase ‘inner child’, I feel, is itself an ‘image word’ that deeply affects the subconscious mind, whose language consists of image words. For more on the language of the inner mind, see …

Dear Ones,
MY RECENT OBSERVATIONS OF MOMENTARY SUBCONSCIOUS TRANCE IN OTHER PEOPLE
Here in Los Angeles, on the physical plane as well as through clair hearing, I have noticed in recent days, during this great upwelling or groundswell of energy anticipatory of the Incoming Light of September, several cases of momentary subconscious trance in people. During these moments, in the physical instances, where I have been in the same room with the people I have observed, I have noticed that …
The person’s eyes are closed or their gaze is fixed, and
I clairly hear their subconscious mind play out a scenario or subroutine that has been stored as repressed energy that does not conform to societal expectations.
Sometimes this is a short story in good English (rather than the young-child English formerly characteristic of the subconscious stories I have clair heard).
Sometimes it is a short clairly spoken phrase that carries negative energy, and is repeated in the person’s subconscious mind over and over again, gathering intensity of emotional volume.
In the case of a short, clairly spoken phrase, sometimes the phrase is caught up and repeated by other people in a group … they also appear to fall into a trance state as the chorus is repeated. In the instances of physical groups that I have noticed so far, there will generally be a few people in the group who are consciously aware of the subconscious chorus, and who are able to turn the clair tide to a more positive note.
Most recently (and I would also say, most propitiously), after events, I have noticed these clair aware people clair talking about their experiences with the repeating subconscious phrases. So there is an aspect of analysis and conscious group leadership evolving in regard to group clair experiences.
In the astral cases, I have noticed that …
The person’s conscious mind ‘blinks out’ into a subconscious place filled with negative emotion and dark imagery, as, for example, of violence or unusual sexual scenarios that symbolically express repressed Soul wounding.
These momentary transmissions carry strong emotional impact, and do not conform to societal expectations.
When I hear a name I know associated with these stories, I check by phoning, and invariably there is no carry-over of emotional energy or memory of the scene to the waking state of the person.
IS THIS A FUGUE STATE THAT IS BEING EXPERIENCED BY MANY PEOPLE?
I have read in Wikipedia about a psychological condition called ‘fugue state’ …
“Dissociative fugue, formerly fugue state or psychogenic fugue, is a DSM-5 dissociative disorder … It is a rare psychiatric disorder characterized by reversible amnesia for personal identity, including the memories, personality, and other identifying characteristics of individuality.” from … Link: “Fugue State” … https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fugue_state … CC BY-SA
I feel this may be approximately what I have been observing, both on the physical plane and through clair hearing that occurs. I feel it has to do with the process of Awakening and the upwelling of Light right now. This groundswell of Light is causing repressed subconscious audiovisual (AV) records to momentarily short circuit the conscious mind.
Most recently this seemed to be happening when Solar activity was nearly completely quiet, and when ‘protonfall’ (solar wind speed times solar wind density) was about 3,500. Whether this is relevant or coincidental, remains to be seen.
In general, these fugue states are nothing more than a slight nuisance, as the people’s conscious minds seem to pick up right where they left off as soon as the fugue state ends. However, as others clair hear these socially unacceptable stories, there can be upset repercussions clair heard from other people.
ON GETTING OFF THE ROAD WHEN SUCH A STATE IS COMING ON
If you feel suddenly, dramatically drowsy while driving, please take immediate note, and then take immediate measures to get off a freeway or busy street. Park on a residential street, and doze if you must, and for as long as you must. Precipitate states of drowsiness are well known as Ascension symptoms, and I expect they may precede, and be the only early warning of, these fugue states I have been observing in other people for the past few weeks and months.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU OBSERVE A PERSON IN A DEEPER FUGUE STATE
I feel it may also be possible, in the rare instance, for a person to fall into a deeper fugue, and stay in that state for some length of time: all night, all day, or for a few days.
In this case, try asking specifically physical questions: What is your name? … How are you feeling right now? … Are you hungry? … Would you like to get up and stretch? … Would you like to go for a walk? … and so forth. In other words, try questions that will anchor the person to the physical plane.
AVOIDING ACTING OUT DURING A FUGUE STATE
It is possible, in rare instances, for a person to fall into a fugue state that expresses such an explosive content of Soul wounding that this Soul wounding is acted out in a sort of ‘sleep-walking’ state in real life. If the Soul wounding is very dramatic, and if a weapon is at hand, then in this rare instance, needless loss of life can occur.
This possibility is especially poignant, considering that the moment the person swims back up out of the subconscious state, they are perfectly ok. So I would like to suggest: Just to be on the safe side for the time being, put all weapons or potential weapons, of any sort, whether they be guns, knives, or anything else, out of the way and lock them up for the time being. Put the key in a self-addressed envelope, and mail it to yourself. Or even, may I suggest putting the weapons in a storage shed.
MEANING OF THIS UNUSUAL TRANCE STATE
I do observe that these unusual states are a symptom of the Awakening process. At this time, many, many people on Earth have begun to awaken, and thus, many, many people are experiencing Ascension symptoms, extreme fatigue being one of them.
It is through clair hearing that I have begun to understand the deeper meaning of the sudden-onset extreme fatigue experiences so often noted in the Ascension symptom literature …
I am not certain what the meaning of these fugue states is, in terms of the Divine plan for the unfolding of this great process of Awakening of humankind. However, I propose two possibilities …
It could be that protonfall and Solar activity are twanging the imperfections in our personal electromagnetic fields, but that the twanging has not reached lift-off capacity. This lift-off I expect to occur for many people, with concomitant EMF field clearing … also termed clearing of samskaras, of karmic miasmic patterning, or of morphogenetic field distortions … during the coming months, as Solar activity picks up.
It could be that alternate timelines (‘alt-T‘) are stepping into our Awareness timelines (‘aware-T’), like this, rendered in our stream of consciousness like this …
In this case, as we begin to notice the slight lapse of consciousness, if we fight very hard, and with total concentration, we can bring the subconscious AV file to conscious Awareness, and merge the timelines, rendered in our stream of consciousness like this …
When that is done, there will be a spectacular flash of Light, and the repressed AV file will be gone from our personal electromagnetic field (our ‘body of Light’) forever.
In love, light and joy
