SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO
Sometimes people feel that they have a Soul, but they just do not relate to their Soul, or they do not have a relationship with their Soul. I hear that most often from scientific people, because they are working mostly with their left brain … their logical brain … in their scientific work.
I think it takes the right side of the brain … the intuitive side … to begin to develop a relationship with the Soul. So it has to do with lack of whole brain function … lack of Cosmic Mind … lack of connection with Universal Mind … without the sensitivity, the intuitive feeling, that we do have a Soul, and that it is vitally important to talk to our Soul.
The connection of the body and the mind and the emotions with the Soul is strengthened by thoughts of the Soul and speech with the Soul … by our petitioning the Soul for help.
Petitioning the Soul for help … aligning with the purpose and the mission of the Soul … those things strengthen our Soul connection.
Ignoring the Soul has the opposite effect. Going against the purpose and mission of the Soul has an even stronger effect of attenuating the thread, or cord, connecting our subtle bodies with the Soul. This thread or cord is variously termed the silver cord, the silver thread, the antahkarana, the kundalini, the central vertical power current, the pranic column, and the pranic tube …

Constantly acting against the hopes of the Soul … or against the very nature of the Soul … eventually causes the cord that connects our subtle bodies, our ego, and our Awareness with the Soul to snap. And that results in the state we call Soullessness: The Soulless man, or the Soulless woman.
In church terms this kind of person is sometimes called the ‘Irredeemable Reprobate’, or the person of ‘utmost depravity’. In psychology or psychiatry the terms used are antisocial personality, sociopath, and psychopath. In law enforcement the term might be something colorful, such as ‘scum of the Earth’.
Conversely, if we find ourselves in a state of attenuated connection with the Soul, then paying more and more attention to alignment with the Soul purpose and mission, to conversations with the Soul, to respect for and Awareness of the Soul, will make that connection stronger and stronger, and us into healthier and more vibrant, and more complete human beings.
In love, light and joy,
I Am of the Stars

Dear Ones,
Can psychic crime be addressed through the legal system? Here is a video on the topics of psychic crime, Controllers, and mastery of mind. There is an edited Summary after the video …

SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO
Hello, Dear Ones, It’s Alice. I Am of the Stars.
I thought I would talk a little bit today about good luck and bad luck in organizations, and whether these assertions people have about some groups practicing Psychic Crime can be proven in the physical realm, in the law court. I have a few things to say about this.
CAN THE ASTRAL REALM BE REGULATED THROUGH LEGAL RECOURSE?
First, I would like to say that problems in one dimension must be solved in that dimension. So we cannot anticipate legal decisions in the physical realm, regarding psychic reality. Rather, the place to address those issues is the psychic realm.
BY WHAT MEANS WILL THE ASTRAL REALM BE REGULATED?
The great sages, the Enlightened Ones, the Lightworkers and wayshowers, the Ascensioneers … all the people that have a very positive attitude towards the evolution of humankind … can make a great difference in the astral realm; mainly, by passing through that realm, and on, to the Fifth Dimension, where the Beings of Light are … and higher, where the Angelic Realms are.
They can bring in the Light that will transform the reality; that will change the astral realm and the astral wildlife that is there. That will affect the noosphere … the thoughts of the people. That is my first and greatest hope with regard to the astral plane.
And greater than that is the Light of God coming in to Earth, which is just a natural phenomenon … the Will of God, coming in. So we have the Lightworkers, who wish to bring in God’s grace. We have God Himself, who wishes humankind to benefit from that grace, and we have the changeup that allows the greater Light to be coming in; the Great Age of Light that is dawning.
Also, we have all the Angelic Beings, the Beings of Light. The wonderful beings that care for the natural order, and for the Universe, are happy to help us any time we ask, along with God … along with Source.
So we have all these helping qualities of God’s creation. And we have God Himself.
KARMA OF AN ORGANIZATION, IN A LEGAL CONTEXT
People talk about the karma of an organization, and the luck of the people that are in it. The issue of the karma of an organization, as a legal argument, I would say, cannot exist … because, above the Law of Karma that governs the members of a group, is the Law of Dharma … the Law of Grace … the Law of the Incoming Light … and the Law of God’s love and Light and joy.
So the karma of a group, and the karma of an individual … the karma of all life everywhere … the karma of the Universe, is an insignificant factor, beside the blessing of God: the Dharma.
The Dharma does consist in living a good life: I say that from the perspective of my personal life. But Dharma transpires because I align my will with that of God, and I ask God for his blessing. It is not because of what I do, but because of what God does, in response to the asking. Dharma covers everything, everywhere, with Love and Light and Joy. That I feel.
We cannot speak of the karma of an organization, in the legal sense, as the thing that causes Psychic Crime events for individuals that they may target (were such to be true).
For instance, in the case of an organization that practiced mind control, the person targeted has the power to align his heart and mind and will with those of God, and in that manner summon the superior firepower to overcome the psychic crime tendencies of the targeting group. How can the psychic crime group, then, be held responsible for the outcome, when the remedy lies in the free will decision-making process of their intended victim?
LUCK OF A GROUP AS A LEGAL ARGUMENT
There is a commonly accepted concept that some things are lucky and some things are not. And the question came up, on the psychic plane, just now: Would it be possible to argue, in a court of law, in regard to an organization or group being lucky or unlucky? And to use that as the basis for a legal effort with regard to psychic crime?
This is quite an interesting question, because people think of Luck as something tangible and real … something like a gold coin that you have; that is Luck. [laughs] And in this regard there is some truth, because the atmosphere of an organization or group has to do with its beliefs. And the beliefs of the organization are like a giant group of thoughts … big thought forms, small thought forms … that adhere to the people, as an overall umbrella around all the people, because of the teachings of the group.
Each group has its own ‘cloud’ of thought forms, no matter how geographically scattered the group is. The Christians have theirs. The Buddhists have theirs. The Islamic peoples have theirs. The Hindus have theirs. And then there are regional and intergroup differences.
Thought forms are very fluid … They flow around everywhere. And people who associate together in a group tend to exchange thought forms at a very fast clip. Thus there is a homogeneous umbrella of thought forms that everyone in the group has. So the question is: Are these thought forms lucky or unlucky?
Is Luck a physical sort of event that can cause people to fall upon hard times … to experience bad things in life? And could this be pursued in a court of law? My feeling about that is, that we can judge an organization by its beliefs, by first attempting to discover what God’s will, God’s heart, and God’s mind have in store as the skein of the Universe … and then comparing God’s plan with the plan of the group or organization.
The farther God’s plan is from that of the group or organization, it seems to me we could argue in a court of law, or anywhere, the less lucky its members will be … because its members will all be bathed in a relatively untrue sea of thought forms.
Could we take that to court? I do not think so. But what we can do, in a place like the United States, is decide which groups we really want to belong to. Do we want to belong to what we perceive to be a lucky group? … or to what we perceive to be an unlucky group?
Are the people in the group happy? Do they feel love? Do they feel joy? Or are they miserable for some reason? Are they unhappy? Are they grumpy? Are they sad? Are they angry? In preponderance, what is the tenor of the noosphere of the group? In that way we can choose where we want to be. And then we can determine our own Luck.
We have free will, here in the United States. In other countries, such as dictatorial countries or totalitarian countries, where it is impossible to alter the form of government … government being quite a large noospheric entity … then you may find that there is Bad Luck for everyone; and that they may have to leave the country in order to experience Good Luck, unless they are the type of person who flourishes in a government that has a relative lack of expression of free will.
MIND CONTROL AND LEGAL RECOURSE
Now, on to the issue of mind control. People talk about being hapless victims of mind control, and of groups that they say practice mind control. Is this really true, or is it not?
The pressure of thought forms in the world is not subject to staying within a group or within a country or within a hemisphere at all. The pressure of thought forms flows throughout the world all the time. It is always circulating throughout the world. It is one world, really, and one noospheric content.
In this great noospheric climate of Earth, there are always thoughts of controlling other people. We talk about grabbing someone, and putting them in a room, and locking them up, and forcing them to be mind controlled. That is a special situation, because their mind is constantly being targeted by unwholesome thoughts.
But in the world at large, there are many thoughts about controlling other people. We want to control our own lives; we want to stay alive, we want to pursue our own happiness, and so forth. How, then, can we escape other people’s thoughts about controlling us?
My feeling is that thoughts of being mind controlled come to us because we want to control our own circumstances. The only way I have found to eliminate these mind control thoughts from my life, is to be happy, to be joyful in the pursuit of my Soul mission, my Soul purpose. If I am pursuing these in such a way that I am unhappy, then I need to switch tracks.
I must develop the ability to switch tracks immediately, not some other time. The minute that I do that, everything changes. Other people’s thoughts to do with mind control are no longer attracted to me. Control and joy are two exact opposites, in the noospheric realm. Thoughts of joy do not attract thoughts of control. And thoughts of control do not bring happiness.
The issue is that of emotional change-up achieved in and of itself, or else through change of activities. A change of emotion will change the noosphere in the wink of an eye.
THE LEFT BRAIN VERSUS THE WHOLE HUMAN BEING
One thing it is important to keep in mind is that mind control experts are using the left side of their brains in order to influence what they consider to be the thoughts inside somebody else’s brain. But that person has two hemispheres in their brain: left and right. That person has a Lower Mental Body, a Higher Mental Body, and a Superconscious Mind, all in the realm of the subtle body known as Mind. (1)
Then it has other subtle bodies. The count of these varies: Some say seven, some say more. In addition there is the physical body, which has its own wants and needs and prerogatives.
So the mind control expert may be spending his time with his left brain, trying to influence one of the many mental centers of another person; but leaving out, for instance … and most importantly … the body of Light, through which all the other realms are influenced; the subtle bodies, each of which has its own manifestation in reality; and the joy of the cells of the physical body, none of which can be impinged upon through any method of mind control.
The notion that we can mind control other people has to do with a world view that holds the Higher Mental Body as the king of the bodies that the Soul manifests in an incarnation. Yet this is not so: It is a cooperation of physical body and subtle bodies that creates this hologrammatic experience for us.
And it is also a cooperation of our Soul with the physical and astral expressions of many other forms of life. We human beings are like a Tree of Life, here on Earth. We have many, many micro-organisms inside us, that call us their home. We have many, many astral beings that help to form our many bodies, and that call our many bodies their home as well.
So, it is not just one person here, with a physical body and, say, seven subtle bodies. No. It is a person with a physical body, seven subtle bodies, and trillions and trillions of beings, including all the body cells, each of which has its own expression and purpose in the physical realm.
What will the Mind Control expert control in us? Which portion of us will it control? Will it control our left brain? Our right brain? Our gut brain? Our superconscious mind? Will it control our astral expression … our emotions? Will it change our body of Light? Will it inflict harm on our etheric template?
Will it cause a change in the Martian Bacterial Colonists of our large intestine?
Will it change the health of our physical form? Can it influence the body cells of a particular organ, or of all the organs?
Can it change our Soul mission or our Soul purpose?
What will be the intention of the mind controller? He is working with a causal network in the left brain. And yet, our existence is as a holistic experience of joyful expression of the lives of many beings.
Were he to attempt mind control in the arena of the mental field, we could always switch our Awareness to one of the other realms of which we are the master, and in that way evade his intention. Mastery of Mind allows us to do that. All effort needs to be bent, I feel, by the avid spiritual student, on the issue of Mastery of Mind … mastery of one’s personal mind; and not on the issue of whether someone else can control us.
HOW POWERFUL ARE THE CONTROLLERS?
People talk about the Controllers, and with a great deal of trepidation. They talk about the Controllers of Earth, who are in charge of everything.
In a similar vein, the Bible talks about Satan. It says mammon owns the Earth (2 Corinthians 4:4) … or words to that effect, does it not? Earth is in the charge of Satan, it implies. But what does it mean by that?
Does it mean that our Soul experience, in embodied form, depends on what Satan manifests in the hologram around us? Or does it merely mean that Satan provides a hologram through which we can experience choices that allow us to grow in Soul wisdom?
This is what I feel the Bible really means when it says that mammon owns the Earth: Mammon owns the hologram. Satan is in charge of the Duality Play that allows us Soul learning experiences.
People do talk about Controllers. I would like to call for a discussion of the Controllers in the context of what they are unable to do. What can they do, and what can they not do?
My first guess would be that the Controllers are unable to feel their hearts.
And what do they lose by that? They lose integration, through joy, and through love, and through faith, of their entire energy field.
So, in their attempt to control us, they lose control of themselves. And in this way we can consider that the Controllers are expressing a weakness that they have, rather than a strength.
EGO AND SPIRIT: MIND AND AWARENESS
Last night, or the night before, I had an interesting experience. I have been listening to one of the Ascensioneer’s language of Light offerings on physical regeneration. There is one that I listen to every day now …
Link: “Ascension Library” … https://www.ascensionlibrary.org/ … Search the word: regenesis ... Judy Satori’s website has seen quite a changeup; I am not sure whether this information still might be found there, but if not, maybe you could contact her to find out if it is available.
Then I retired for the evening, and then things started happening in my energy field … in my body of Light. And most amazing things they were! For instance, a vortex of clearing energy came down from the sky, down through my head, and down into my neck.
After the clearing process from my head down, another clearing process started; that was from my lower quadrant of Light up, through my large intestine, here and there. It was also a vortical clearing process. This type of vortical clearing is, I feel, less the product of language of Light than the product of the Ascension clearing process as a whole; it is one of the features of that process.
It is what you might call an Ascension symptom, but not really, because it is an event that causes a clearing. Thus it seemed to me that my central vertical power current was getting a change-up; and that my Body of Light was clearing. And so I was not concerned about it; in fact, I felt pretty good about it.
But one of the qualities that it had, was to remove all thought forms from my Higher Mental Body and my Lower Mental Body … which can be frightening, I feel, if a person does not place their identity in their pure Awareness, rather than in their thought forms. And it does take some special experience, in order for that special understanding to take place.
For instance, some people get it by fainting; they faint, and their Awareness is still hovering over their bodies. They can see their bodies; they can see the people around their bodies; but they realize they are not their bodies … They are someplace else. Their Awareness, and not their brain, is the thing that they identify with after that.
In the same way, some people have near-death experiences, and come to that conclusion. Or it could be an operation: People have an operation, go under anesthesia, and, from a far corner of the room, they are observing everything that is going on.
Then when they come back in body after they are awakened from the anesthesia, they think: You know, there is more to existence than this physical form, for sure. Awareness is the key; nothing physical is. The mind is not. And the emotions are not. It is a pure Point of Light within the Mind of God, that I am.
A person can also get that kind of Awareness of who they are, through the vortical clearing process. The first time that it happens, during the Ascension process, they may say to themselves: Oh, my Lord, I am done for! I am for sure dying now! And then they survive!
And the next day they wake up, and they say: No, that was not it! You know, I am something beyond what my mind says.
ALICE’S PERILOUS TALES: ON BEING ‘SKINNY-DIPPED’ BY A CONTROLLER DURING AN ASCENSION CLEARING PROCESS [re ‘Heart Vampire’]
A Controller, who watches; who has, say, astral traveling ability, or ubiquitous ability … omnipresent ability … for whatever reason, watches this process going on, will have an ideology … a concept, a set of notions about what is going on … based on his desire to control other people.
He may say, for instance, that he is causing the vortex to take place, because he wants to place his mind inside of my mind. And this kind of astral chatter was going on the other night. I was hearing this chatter, but from prior experiences with Point of Light Awareness, I knew it was not true. So I was not concerned about it.
I was somewhat concerned about the followers of that person, who were also gathered around, and thought that he was doing that to me, because I felt that they were misled by the concept that the group held.
So then it got down to the vortical, clearing motion that came up the torso from beneath the lower quadrant of Light. When that process was finished, they said: He has finished clearing her out.
After that, I was in a state of very clear body of Light, but because of his concept, he attempted to send his energy down through my central vertical power current. When he did that … what they call ‘skinny dipping’ in the astral lore … when he did that, the samskaras in his own etheric net started making astral chatter inside of my central vertical power current.
I did my best to explain to the group that was watching, that they had heard those words with every clearing that he had done.As time went on, it had become clear to me that those mischievous sayings that I had cancer, or that a sexual event was occurring that he was doing to me … things of that nature … those samskaras were most likely his own.
Because of the group’s concept that he was doing a master job of clearing other people’s bodies of Light … because they felt absolute loyalty to him as their guru … they would not stop him from flowing through other people’s central vertical power currents. They felt that he had no faults; and so it had never occurred to them he was infecting people with his own samskaras with as he passed through, in that ‘skinny dipping’ escapade that he did.
On the astral plane, I tried to explain that to his followers, and I think I succeeded to some extent. I feel his followers are now going to work with him to clarify his own body of Light, so that the work he does, does not present any difficulties for the people that he is attempting to heal.
For ourselves … for the Lightworkers … I say: Should such a psychic event occur, there would be a reason for it. A clearing of the body of Light has nevertheless taken place for us; all we have to do is wait until the Controller’s unwanted presence is no longer within our energy field … or else bid God send it away … and then we will find that, through God’s grace, our own body of Light is returns to a pristine state, as it was before the ‘pass through’ (aka ‘flow through’ or ‘skinny dipping’) attempt.
ON THWARTING CONTROLLERS WHO ATTEMPT TO TAKE OVER OUR KARMIC META-PROGRAM IN THE EIGHTH CHAKRA [re ‘Heart Vampire’]
The weakness of the Controllers is the concept that they must control.
There are even Controllers that have decided that they need to be ‘on top of everything’ … controlling everything with regard to the Ascension process. And so they and their group go up to the transpersonal chakras … to the eighth chakra, for instance, above the head … and insert thought forms above people’s heads, with the intention of being their teachers.
The eighth chakra, above our heads, consists of the karmic meta-program that allows us to change up the karmic play within our astral field whenever we want to. So the presence of Controllers as intruders there is an undesirable experience.
There are various ways to clear this energy through God’s help, the simplest, in all instances, being to align one’s mind and heart and will with the Great Mind, the Great Heart, and the Great Will of God. That will take care of everything for us.
QUALITIES OF GOD EXPRESSED THROUGH CREATION
Another way to hold such an event as I experienced a couple of nights ago, is to consider the different qualities of the power of God in creation. These qualities are: The act of creation, sustaining the creation, and destroying the creation. The powers of the Trimurti … the power of Lord Brahma, the power of Lord Vishnu, and the power of Lord Shiva … are all manifestations of the power of God in creation.
The beings that were created by God naturally have a tendency towards, or an affinity for, one of those powers of God. There are beings that are intent upon the creative process. There are beings whose greatest desire is to preserve creation as it is. And there are beings whose greatest joy is the destruction of what has been created.
Each of these beings has a purpose in God’s plan; for creation cannot be constantly changing, without the constant implementation of each of these powers of God, in many different combinations.
It seems to me that the Controllers would favor, first of all, Lord Vishnu, the preserver of things as they are, because, in the current context of the Duality Play, the Controllers can preserve the illusion that they are in control of others.
Those Controllers who know that things are changing … that the Ascension process is creating change on Earth, for instance … may wish to shift to the energies of Lord Shiva, utilized against the Lightworkers and the Ascensioneers and those who are enlightened, because they may feel that those other beings are creating the New.
For those of us who hold the energy of creating the New here on Earth, the Lord Shiva energy of the destroyers is very important: First of all, it balances the Dark against the Light, as the change-up process … the stepping up of the Light … occurs. (2) Always as the Light steps up, the Dark steps in to create a balance between Dark and Light.
It might seem like a Dark Attack, but actually it is just the leveling up of the Dark and the Light.
Always, as the Lightworkers bring in Light and grace and love, the Dark steps up to the plate with a renewed Darkness. And Controllers will step in and attempt to stop the Lightworkers from doing their work.
In fact, it could be that for every Lightworker on Earth, there is a Darkworker who worships Lord Shiva and who is assigned by God to plague that person, because in that way, the balance of the stepping up of the Light … that process … can occur flawlessly, and with least trouble for everyone.
So we Lightworkers can appreciate the importance of the Dark. We can appreciate the importance of the Controllers. And we can appreciate the importance of those who worship Lord Shiva, in this beautiful Light show that is taking place here on Earth right now.
In love, light and joy,
I Am of the Stars
P.S. I have included this blog in the categories Hinduism and Neo-Hinduism – Neo-Vedanta, as the Indian Saint the Vallalar, and Sri Aurobindo of Integral Yoga are often connected to the concepts of omnipresence, omniscience, and omnipotence, and to the terms used by ‘the Vallalar’ and/or Sri Aurobindo: ‘gracelight’ … ‘grace light’ … ‘divine light’ ..

Sometimes I feel like some men walk about saying that all women are illogical, emotional, not spiffed up left-brain thinkers like themselves. And they try to corral us and put baskets over our heads, so we can’t remember how to use that whole brain way of thinking anymore …
Then when those men pass on, and, through God’s mercy and wisdom, reincarnate as women, and once again have the use of both sides of their brain, they say: Aha!
And some men hear them, and try to corral them and put baskets over their heads, so they cannot remember how to use that whole brain way of thinking anymore …
For myself, I would like to see all humankind set aside those baskets, and fall into the New!

Hello, Dear Ones, It’s Alice. I Am of the Stars.
Kanji or Pictographs in the Sky
Here we have an amazing signal in the sky. It is almost like kanji, or the characters that are used in China for words. Or drawings, pictographs, or like that …

Contrails and the Art of Prophecy
And then we have, [showing] this is probably contrails here, but going up to the side like that [from lower left to top right on the screen]. But I do not have the opinion that other people have about contrails. I think of contrails as signs in the sky that tell stories that predict the future. [that is, random contrails, not sky writing].
Conspiracy Theory and the Physical World
I think of contrails as a positive thing, a helpful thing for prophecy. And I do not really believe in conspiracy theory on the physical level. I believe it happens on the astral level, in the fourth dimension. But that’s another story, for another day.
Left Brain, Right Brain, and the Body of Light
So here we have maybe contrails going up like that, [on the diagonal] do you not think? But the way that they go, it is like they are leading up to heaven, in a straight and direct route. It is almost like, through our development of our left brain, we are proceeding onward to a higher level, where the Ascension is …

Introduction
This is the first of a two-blog series on Enlightenment. I start off with an explanation of the Incoming Light at times of High Light on Earth. This High Light can cause a person to take more Light into their personal energy field, or to flee from the Light and to acquire more Darkness in their personal energy field.
Why is that? The answer has to do with the way that we react to threat energy. The way that we react often has to do with automatic conditioning … habit … rather than conscious thinking.
How we react to the novel condition of greater Incoming Light … especially during annual equinoxes and solstices, during astronomical gateways, during geostorms, during Earth-directed solar wind gusts, and during intervals of Solar Maximums … has a very great deal to do with whether we continue on the path to Enlightenment, or whether we retreat to Dark ground perceived as more safe.
My feeling is, the more we bring our subconscious responses to threat energy to the Light of our Awareness, the more likely it is that we will be able to react to threat energy in the way most helpful to our survival. Will it be fight or flight? Will it be freeze, fawn, or flop?
Do we have the tools at hand to avoid using any of these defense mechanisms? Can we find a way to settle our minds, bodies, and emotions so that we can seek the life-preserving and lifeline-extending benefits of a higher wattage personal energy field? Will we clam up, or will we seek Enlightenment during times of High Light? The next section will explore these questions.
Human Responses to the Prospect of Change: Fight, Flight, Freeze, Fawn, or Flop?

DESCRIPTION: The image contains these words: Responses to the Prospect of Change: Fight, Flight, Freeze, Fawn, Flop, Fall over dead.
In the past, I have put forth that solar events such as geostorms can cause the fight response (which I term ‘acting out’) or the flight response (generalized anxiety or panic attack, since the threat is not physical). Later I read, and immediately saw the truth of, the notion that there is another possible response to a perceived threat … that is the freeze-and-dissociate response (which, for the sake of simplicity, I term the freeze response) …
Later on I found there are three more possible responses to the prospect of change; these are the fawn response, the flop response … and in the most desperate instance, falling over dead due to shock.
When I read about these bodily responses to perceived threats, I was immediately taken back to my youth, out in the countryside, where I saw our family German Shepherd enthusiastically digging up a rabbit burrow, and uncovering a little rabbit inside the burrow. Clearly the rabbit was frozen with fear … It ‘shrank into itself’ … With great concern, I picked it up. It looked to me like the rabbit was paralyzed, unseeing, unfeeling … completely unresponsive.
Looking back to those days, when I found a little wild animal ‘frozen in fear’ back then, in the countryside, I feel it must have been exhibiting the freezeresponse …
Then sometimes a wild animal would come to its senses, and run away. That was the flightresponse …
I remember a wounded chipmunk once came back to its senses and bit me. That was the fightresponse …

Clagett
Sometimes a little wild animal would act friendly towards me. This is known as the fawnresponse.
And sometimes a small wild animal, especially a baby animal, would simply die in my hand. I guess their hearts just stopped beating out of fear. That is an extreme version of response to a perceived threat … one that I have not seen in human beings.
So then, these are the possible physical responses that wild animals may employ when faced with danger: To fight, to flee, to freeze, to act in a fawning manner, to flop (or faint), or simply to lie down and die. I have seen human beings exhibit all but the last response when faced with great stress.
We Humans Are Beginning to Sense the Angst of Our Body Cells During the Ascension Process
Earth’s Ascension is posited to be happening because of our Solar System’s entry into the Photon Belt … the greater Light of the Pleiades … during the 2012 Shift.

It is also known as ‘The Seven Sisters’, or the astronomical designations NGC 1432/35 and M45.”

. . . . .
When the 2012 Shift occurred and the greater Light of the Pleiades began to bless our planet, the Ascension process began on our beloved planet Earth. That is the lore that we Lightworkers, pathfinders, wayshowers and healers have to provide regarding the many changes that are taking place on Earth today.
Our Body Cells and Their Electrical Phone Lines

. . . . .
Since 2012, every being on Earth has changed. Not the least of these are the tiny beings we think of as our body cells. Each of us human beings has about 30 trillion of these tiny, helpful beings in our care as we live out our lives on Earth.
Our body cells sing ‘the body electric’ even more clearly than we human beings do. They are intimately attuned to changes in their own electric fields. They communicate with each other with ‘electrical phone lines’. This intercellular ‘Light speak’ is, I feel, essential to their coordination of human bodily function.
The body cells are very, very conservative. Any little prospect of change throws them into a tizzy. Being flooded with ramped-up photonic Light during a Solar Event is one such stimulus, and one that humankind is beginning to be aware of due to the fact that we are slowly but surely becoming clairly EMF-sensitive because of the changes in the Incoming Light since the 2012 Shift.
As we humans become more gifted with clair abilities such as clairaudience, clairvoyance, and EMF sensitivity (which is to say, Light sensitivity), we begin to notice the angst felt by our trillions of body cells when changes occur in Earth’s magnetosphere.
Changes in Earth’s magnetosphere are, in the main, the result of Solar events such as geostorms and solar winds. These events occur most frequently during Solar Maximums such as that which we are now experiencing here on Earth.
As the Solar activity during Solar Maximums …

… engulf and transform our planet, often without our conscious Awareness, our bodies will go into fight, flight, freeze, fawn or flop mode. Why is that?
Here is one reason that is often overlooked: Our body cells sense these Solar events as disruptions in their mutual ‘Light speak’. It is their feeling that all is not right in their world during magnetospheric fluctuations that greatly amps up our human fight, flight, freeze, fawn or flop response during post-Shift Solar events.
Now that humankind is clairly gifted, our sense of our body cells’ angst at these times can make our own response to these events 30 trillion times more intense – or thereabouts!
More Information
I looked up online the difference between Light and electricity and read that Light is just electricity that goes along a line or wire.
If body cells can communicate despite a glass barrier, as described in the below-cited scientific article, then that must be cellular language of Light, I suppose.
Then if Light is travelling along the ‘axon’ or ‘arm’ of a cell, maybe it had best be termed ‘electricity’.

Solar Maximums and Solar Events Bless Us with Many Ascension Gifts
Here in this earthly realm of Duality, Solar Maximums and Solar events have their pluses as well as their minuses. We may be feeling stressed out during these times, without being able to put a finger on the why and wherefore of it. But the temporary changes in our electric fields during these events herald our transformation to a state of being that we Lightworkers term the New Human. Here is just a little about how this transformation is taking place …
One of our subtle bodies is the body of Light …

. . . . .
Saturation of this subtle body with the Incoming Light is all for the good, as the amped up Light is said to instruct our DNA on how to unfold from the 2-strand ramped-down mode that keeps our physical bodies functional during the Great Ages of Darkness to the full 12-strand state we can enjoy during the current Age of Light. That is the Lightworker lore.
The Great Ages of Darkness are said to last 10,500 very long years; and the Ages of Light are said to last 2,000 years …
The most recent Great Age of Darkness is said to have ended in December 2012, and so now our DNA is thought to be unfurling once again …

. . . . .
Expansion of our DNA is, I feel, a great gift to humankind. It is a gift that is sought after by many during the Great Ages of Darkness, with nearly no success. But during this Great Age of Light, this gift is available to everyone on Earth. I speak with confidence, even though science has not yet stepped up to the plate in this regard. That is because I myself have felt, within my own energy field, the miracles that occur during Light upgrades.

Summary
To be concise, our wonderful new Ascension gifts depend upon expansion of our DNA during post-Shift Solar events, especially during Solar Maximums such as that which we are now experiencing here on Earth.
However, the kicking in of the fight, flight, freeze, fawn or flopresponses, which are based on animal survival mechanisms, is causing some uncomfortable effects during the DNA amp-up process.
I have noticed a few more drawbacks to the process of change upon which humankind has so recently embarked. These will be discussed in the next subsection.

Introduction
This section describes some of the drawbacks of the Ascension process. For instance …
During the Ascension process, people may experience what Lightworkers term ‘Ascension symptoms’.
During periods of noospheric dissonance, those among us who are now clairvoyant are likely to hear what I term negatively aspected ‘astral chatter’.
This astral chatter can goad people to acts of violence. This is not just something for telepaths to look out for and to avoid, but also it is a concern for people who only subconsciously sense the circulating thought forms of this world. I term this ‘acting out’.
Because of what I have dubbed the ‘glom effect’, astral stories well up in the collective subconscious and find expression as collectively experienced violent daydreams and night dreams.
The glom effect can lead … and in fact has led … to incidents of mass hysteria or ‘mass psychogenic illness’, often on a small scale, but sometimes on a scale that is grand indeed. Perusal of the newspaper headlines since the 2012 Shift provides a ‘heads up’ as to the mass hysterical incidents we need to sidestep in order to be safe during these times of change.
There is more on each of these drawbacks of the Ascension process below …
Ascension Symptoms
Discerning people have noted a host of physical, mental and emotional ‘Ascension symptoms’ …

… including, among others, a stressed-out feeling; insomnia, or else sleeping for a long time; vivid or violent dreams; loss of appetite, or else greater desire to eat; aches and pains; ultra-heightened physical senses; emotional ups and downs; memory loss; intolerance for the ordinary; a feeling of not belonging; the experience of being outcast; wanting to ‘go home’; and time and space ‘skips and skids’.
Most of the items on the list are from a wonderful blog put together by Cedar Rivers in the early days of the Shift, and still available online today …
At this moment it might be good to highlight the last four items on the Ascension symptoms list. These are intolerance for the ordinary, a feeling of not belonging, the experience of being outcast, wanting to ‘go home’, and the temporal and dimensional ‘skips and skids’ that occur as we begin to wield our mighty new multidimensional and multitemporal Ascensioneer skills.
This image, I feel, provides a clue about how to hold these feelings in a context that is uplifting and which offers a way out of feelings of social isolation during these difficult times. My thoughts on the relevance of the painting are in the Comments below …

Unlike the eunuch in the painting, we may still have our Earth families, or we may have the prospect of having a real-life Earth family. But the love that we feel for them flows, with the help of the Angelic Realm, through our Spirits to that vast realm of God consciousness, and back again into those we love. –Alice B. Clagett.

I have found that there are post-Shift issues with astral chatter (super-sensitization to telepathy, both human and non-human). Some people are aware of these issues; others are just awakening to Awareness of these issues; and quite a few people are experiencing the symptoms, but as yet only on a subconscious level.

Acting Out
Because for many people on Earth today there is subconscious turmoil going on, there can be a feeling of being ‘goaded’ into ‘acting out’ of astral stories and of collectively subconsciously produced vivid waking dreams. To find out more about this, see my blog category: Acting out …

The Glom Effect
There is a phenomenon that I term the ‘glom effect’ …

. . . . .
Briefly, it seems to me that the glom effect takes place when groups of people daydream together, or when they have dreams together while sleeping. I say this because, as a telepath, on the astral plane I often hear people glomming together in their daydreams and in their nightly dreams.
This glomming of thought forms seems to be a unique feature of Earth life. It appears to me, from my telepathic observations of gloms, that these gloms help communities of human beings adhere together and resolve problems that arise in the communities …

How this may occur appears to me to be through the action of the people’s superconscious minds on their subconscious and unconscious minds while the people are in a dream state.
Most people are as yet unable to take it on faith that they have a superconscious mind, but the healing and restorative effect of people daydreaming and night-dreaming together implies that such a mind exists …

The combined efforts of the superconscious minds of many people as they glom together on the astral plane while dreaming, I feel, result in ‘smoothing of troubled waters’ and restoration of tribal consciousness in groups of people. –Alice B.

In a famous quote in his play “Macbeth,” Shakespeare referred to “Sleep that knits up the raveled sleeve of care, / The death of each day’s life, sore labor’s bath, / Balm of hurt minds, great nature’s second course, / Chief nourisher in life’s feast.”
If the meter or rhythm of the passage were to have allowed it, I feel he might have substituted ‘the superconscious mind’ for the word ‘sleep’. Then I would have completely agreed with him. It is, I feel, the superconscious mind, acting upon our energy fields while we sleep, that directs our life’s play, healing the wounds of yesterday, and readying us for each new day.
For the psychiatrists and psychologists among my readers, here is a thought: Might it not be that Jung’s concept of self-actualization presupposes the existence of a superconscious mind in each of us? I feel this to be true, and my telepathic observations of the glom effect that occurs in other people while they dream together support my understanding that all people’s minds include a guiding, healing, and restorative superconscious mind as well … though, truth to tell, it seems that very few people are aware of this …

As many have said, Earth is the school of Duality. Where great benefits are to be had, there may be great drawbacks as well. I have described above these post-Shift phenomena: What is termed by others ‘noospheric dissonance’ and what I term ‘astral chatter’; ‘acting out’; and the ‘glom effect’.
These are factors in what might be termed ‘shared vivid waking dreams’ that seem to have been rising to the Awareness of many people since the 2012 Shift. It seems to me that these ‘shared vivid waking dreams’ might be akin to what psychologists and psychiatrists term ‘mass hysteria’ or ‘mass psychogenic illness’. Sometimes these shared vivid waking dreams are simply suffered through on the astral plane by a group of people. Other times emotional momentum builds up on the astral plane, and one or two people … or maybe many people … ‘act out’ on the physical plane some aspect of the ‘shared vivid waking dreams’ …
For those of my readers who are clairaudient, this hypothesis of mine can be validated (or invalidated, as the case may be) by journaling what seem to be ‘shared vivid waking dreams’ rampaging about through the noosphere, and then by checking the newspaper headlines to find out if the dreams have been ‘acted out’.
Government-Localized Mass Hysteria – Russian Invasion of the Ukraine.One such instance of mass hysteria, I feel, is Russia’s incursion into the Ukraine in February 2022. I feel certain that this incursion had to do with Ascension symptoms experienced by Russian leaders, who, by God’s grace, seem to me now, as of this writing in September 2022, to be stepping back from that aggressive stance.
What a price has been paid, in terms of human suffering, in this instance of a ‘shared vivid waking dream’ to do with soldierly honor and willingness to suffer for one’s country! Is it not so?
Global Mass Hysteria – Panic Response to the COVID Pandemic.Here is what I feel to be another instance of mass hysteria: I feel certain that my discerning readers have noticed great masses of people … including those who make the laws in government … exhibiting this or that stress response to the COVID pandemic of March 2020. Like all the people on Earth today, some of our lawmakers responded to the COVID pandemic by fighting, or by fleeing, or through the freeze, fawn, or flop responses.
I noticed only the other day, in mid-September 2022, that those who make the laws for my California county have finally snapped out of the freeze response and repealed a clearly illegal tenant eviction protection law that has been in place since near the beginning of the COVID pandemic.
I also feel a case could be made for the COVID pandemic globally as an instance of mass hysteria egged on by catastrophic media reports …

In the instance of the Western town, I was able to change locations and escape the mass hysteria. But in the current Solar Maximum, and what with the goading of mass media, the COVID mass hysteria has been a global event.
To what destination may an awakened human being flee, in such an instance? How can the awakened human being fight everyone on the globe? What good are the freeze, fawn or flop responses to the awakened human during such a global catastrophe? They are very little use at all, I feel.
During instances of mass hysteria to do with the Ascension process … during Solar events post-Shift, such as the solstices, equinoxes and gateways … and especially now, during the geostorms and solar wind gusts of the Solar Maximum … I feel it would be good to avoid the fight or flight and freeze, fawn or flop responses.
If we become aware that we are responding aggressively to everyday situations, or if we are overly anxious, or if we just feel like withdrawing and hiding from it all, there are very simple remedies, which have to do with the breath and the ancient science of yoga (which is to say, the yoking of our energy fields with the Universe and with God). The why, the ‘wherefore’, and the ‘how-to’ are coming up next …
The Human Personal Energy Field: Power Currents and Energy Centers
In this section I have picked and chosen those yogic and Lightworker techniques that help me to attain ‘neutral mind’. I have added an overlay of understanding that I feel helps synthesize the teachings of those who channel Ascension lore with the ancient esoteric teachings. Insofar as possible, I have dovetailed in what information I could glean from psychology, psychiatry, and human biology. Then where it seems the Creative Commons and public domain images available online might be more simply depicted, I have devised and added new images for my readers’ perusal.
Let’s begin at the beginning: The human personal energy field has within it power currents (‘nerve currents’ or ‘nadis’) and energy centers (chakras).
There are three main power currents in the human personal energy field. Depicted below is the first of these, the sushumna, through which flows the central vertical power current or ‘kundalini’ of the human energy field. The sushumna is shown as a column of white Light that runs vertically along the spine …

About the Sushumna
As mentioned above, the sushumna is the central channel through which the central vertical power current (the ‘kundalini’ energy) is able to rise after the energies of the ida and the pingala are evenly balanced.
Entwined with the energy of the sushumna are the power currents termed the ida and the pingala. These two energies have qualities very different, each from the other.
Qualities of the Ida
The energy of the ida, which is stimulated by left-nostril breathing, is associated with …
the moon, the feminine side of our personalities
the color white
comfort, coolness, and nurturing
control of mental processes
the right side of the brain, and intuitive, imaginative, and creative thought
the parasympathetic nervous system, which relaxes the body; this relaxing quality may, I feel, be a factor in manifestation of the freeze, fawn, and flop responses
Qualities of the Pingala
The energy of the pingala, which is stimulated by right-nostril breathing, is associated with …
the sun, the masculine side of our personalities
the color red
tawniness, warmth, stimulation
control of vital somatic processes
the left side of the brain, and analytical, logical, and scientific thought
and the sympathetic nervous system, which activates the fight-or-flight response
How the Subconscious Mind and the Autonomic Nervous System Relate to the Ida and the Pingala
Here is an image of the autonomic nervous system (the ANS) …

The autonomic nervous system, I feel, is associated with the subconscious mind, known in esoteric lore as the lower mental body and sometimes referred to in my work as the ‘gut brain’ …
According to modern medical lore, the autonomic nervous system has two branches; these are the parasympathetic nervous system and the sympathetic nervous system.
The action of the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems is ‘opposite’ or ‘antagonistic’. That is to say, they have opposing effects. These effects may be likened, respectively, to the qualities of the ida and the pingala power currents that entwine along the sushumna.
The parasympathetic nervous system is said to be associated with the ‘freeze-and-dissociate’, ‘rest and digest’ and ‘feed and breed’ functions of the subconscious mind. Thus, I feel, it is related to the ida energy of yogic lore.
The sympathetic nervous system is said to be associated with the fight-or-flight response of the subconscious mind. Thus, I feel, it is related to the pingala energy of yogic lore.
As mentioned earlier, the ida is associated with breathing through the left nostril; and the pingala is associated with breathing through the right nostril. Thus I find, in my personal yogic practice, that stimulation of the ida through left-nostril breathing will stimulate the freeze response of the parasympathetic nervous system. I feel it may also factor into the fawn response and the flop response to a perceived threat.
Contrarily, stimulation of the pingala through right-nostril breathing, I find, will stimulate the fight-or-flight response of the sympathetic nervous system.
If you find this to be true (as did I), then you will have at hand a means of changing up your response to solstice and equinoctial energies, gateway events, and geostorms: By consciously breathing through the left nostril only, you can move out of the fight-or-flight response, and into the freeze response. (There will be more on left-nostril breathing and right-nostril breathing below.)
Our human breath naturally alternates between the left nostril and the right nostril during the day. A small scientific study has reported the interval for coursing of the breath through one nostril as being about 2 hours while waking and about 4 and a half hours while sleeping …

The alternation of the breath from nostril to nostril is nature’s way of balancing the energies of the ida and the pingala as they course along the spine.
Rather than wait that long to attain a balance of ida and pingala, we can consciously switch from left nostril breathing to right nostril breathing, and back again. This technique, which is called ‘alternate nostril breathing’, I find to be a sure way to deal with solstice and equinoctial energies, gateway events, and geostorms. More on alternate nostril breathing (and the companion technique known as ‘Long Deep Breathing’) below.
How to Inhibit the Fight-or-Flight and Freeze-Fawn-or-Flop Responses Through Yogic Breath
Putting it all together, we can consciously change the operation of the autonomic nervous system … and the subconscious mind … by practicing left-nostril or right-nostril breathing.
Left-Nostril Breathing inhibits the Fight-or-Flight Response
Left-nostril breathing has a calming, relaxing effect. It is easily practiced, even by a novice to the science of yoga.
While first learning left-nostril breathing, use the thumb of the right hand to close off the right nostril. The mouth is also closed. This forces the breath through the left nostril. The other fingers of the right hand are pointed up, like antennae.

After awhile, I found it was possible to switch to left-nostril breathing by simply placing my Awareness on the left nostril, and feeling the breath there … the hand pose was no longer needed.
Right-Nostril Breathing inhibits the Freeze, Fawn, and Flop Responses
Right-nostril breathing has an energizing effect. Thus it inhibits the freeze response, and also, I feel, the fawn response and the flop response. It is practiced like this …
While first learning right-nostril breathing, use the thumb of the left hand to close off the left nostril. The mouth is also closed. This forces the breath through the right nostril. The other fingers of the left hand are pointed up, like antennae.

. . . . .
The fight-or-flight response and the freeze, fawn, or flop responses can be suppressed through the yogic technique known as Long Deep Breathing. When the breath becomes long and deep, the feeling of the person facing stressful events becomes less involved in the outcome. The person becomes the neutral witness of the events that are unfolding. This is the yogic state known as ‘neutral mind’.

We human beings have several different nervous systems. As mentioned above, we have the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems, which are branches of the autonomic nervous system.
And we have another nervous system that is under voluntary control, and which allows us to consciously control our body movements. This is the somatic nervous system (the SNS) …
Just as the autonomic nervous system is associated with what is known in esoteric lore as the lower mental body, the somatic nervous system is associated with what is known in esoteric lore as the higher mental body. In my own work, I term these the subconscious mind or ‘gut brain’ and the conscious mind, respectively.
We can use the bodily movements under our conscious control … those innervated by the somatic nervous system … to influence the nerves of the autonomic nervous system, which control the fight-or-flight response and the freeze-fawn-or-flop responses.
This voluntary control of our involuntary muscles is set forth in ancient yogic lore. Another way to look at the yogic breathing techniques, otherwise known as pranayam … is this: We can use yogic breathing to bring the subconscious mind under the influence of the conscious mind.
The next few subsections offer simple, time-honored yogic breathing techniques that allow us to yoke the subconscious mind to the conscious mind.
Alternate Nostril Breathing Links the Subconscious Mind to the Conscious Mind
Alternate nostril breathing is a yogic technique that brings the ida and the pingala to the Light of Awareness. In terms of physiology, alternate nostril breathing links or hooks the autonomic nervous system to the somatic nervous system. In terms of esoteric lore, alternate nostril breathing unites the subtle bodies termed the lower mental body and the higher mental body. In my own parlance, alternate nostril breathing brings the subconscious mind under the control of the conscious mind.
Here are the steps to take in order to practice alternate nostril breathing …
First, use the right hand to block off the right nostril. The fingers of the right hand are held up, like antennae. (See the image “Alternate Nostril Breathing: Step 1” below.) Inhale long and deep through the left nostril.

Release the block on the right nostril, Use the ring finger or index finger of the right hand to block the left nostril. (See the image ‘”Alternate Nostril Breathing: Step 2″ below.) Exhale long and deep through the right nostril.

Keeping the same finger and hand position, inhale long and deep through the right nostril.
Then switch back to the finger position shown in step 1, and exhale long and deep through the left nostril.
Begin again at Step 1, and continue with this alternate nostril breath for a few minutes, but stop at any time if you begin to feel uncomfortable; and of course, only try the practice on your medical doctor’s advice.

Even Nostril Breathing Unites the Brain Hemispheres So That We Can Experience Cosmic Mind
‘Even nostril breathing’ is a state where the breath flows evenly through both nostrils, uniting the ida and pingala, and uniting the right and left hemispheres of the brain. The result is what has been called ‘Cosmic Mind’ or ‘Universal Mind’. This was a form of Enlightenment available to human beings before the Ascension process that began on Earth in the year 2012.
All the yogic breathing techniques or pranayama, as they were called in ancient India, are described in this article by Swami Jnaneshvara Bharati, who is a master of the Himalayan tradition …

These breathing practices or pranayama help establish evenness of breath, and also to establish unification of the subconscious and the conscious mind. Yoga poses, mudras and mantras, and yoga sets or kriyas that combine these techniques can be practiced to achieve the same effect, but with somewhat more difficulty in terms of technique.
A kriya that I like because of its effectiveness and simplicity is ‘Sat Kriya’. It was my first 90-day kriya assignment by my yoga teacher when I began to learn kundalini yoga many years ago. More about Sat Kriya will be coming up in this blog …

Some sources suggest that a person visualize energy flowing up the spine while imagining the sound Sooooooo and inhaling; and then that a person visualize energy flowing down the spine while imagining the sound Hummmmmm and exhaling.
I like this idea very much, as it seems to me that it will even out the ascending and descending forces in the spine.
According to my teachings, the subconscious mind is situated in the lower half of the human torso; and the conscious mind is situated in the upper half of the human torso. Thus a person may sense both the subconscious and the conscious minds and their related chakras with each act of inhaling and exhaling.

……………….. Sidebar: How to Modify the So Hum Meditation During Times of High Light So As to Unite All Four Minds
I feel it might be possible, now that the Ascension process is taking place, to change the So Hum meditation a little so as to unite all four minds.
According to my teachings, the unconscious mind is situated below the human torso, and the superconscious mind is situated above the human torso. I find I am more likely to sense these two extremes of my energy field during times that we Lightworkers term ‘High Light’. I think of ‘High Light’ as the type of Light in which Earth is bathed during Solar events such as solstices, equinoxes and gateways, and during geostorms and influxes of Solar winds to Earth, which are most likely to occur during Solar Maximums.
When the Earth’s magnetosphere is excited and expanded, then my personal energy field is also excited and expanded. This state of energetic expansion offers me a chance to unite all four minds and to clear and transform their related energies. In the case of the unconscious mind, the related energies are very, very dense. In the case of the superconscious mind, the energies are very, very refined.
So then, putting it all together, during these special times of energetic influx to our planet, I might change up the So Hum Meditation like this …
I might visualize energy welling up from a place far, far below my feet, then coursing up my spine and far up into the sky as I imagine the sound Sooooooo and as I inhale …
