*Light encoded for your awakening journey.*
Ok, I am going to try to not get sidetracked today (good luck to us all!). Like I said last time, I have been experiencing Ascension symptoms for years. Since before I even knew what Ascension was or even heard of it. I am going to go through the list and share my symptoms, some I have had in the past, some I am having now. It is a much longer gestation than nine months to get this process done. Sometimes I think that it may never be done.
–Activity at the crown of the head—this one has been going on for years and I still feel it on pretty much a daily basis now. I often feel it while meditating, but in the last year or two, I have been feeling at random times during the day or night at work, while driving, while watching TV, any time really. Mostly tingling, sometimes pressure. Every once in a while, a brief flash of pain. I associate this with the presence of a higher energy being (I am feeling their energy as tingling due to their proximity). I also associate it (or some slight pressure) as the downloading of information, gifts, and/or upgrades to my energy self.
–Old “stuff” seems to be coming up—see the last installment.
–Food intolerances—I actually read about this and thought, “Oh, this will never happen to me.” Ha, think again, Sister! I started eating more healthy food. Mostly organic, much less processed stuff. I still fall into the old habits of eating crap when I am with my family (when in Rome?). I recently got back from a week away visiting family and they have terrible eating habits. Lots of processed foods, junk, sugar, soda, fast food. I gained five pounds and my body and I are now in recovery. I will probably not eat meat for the next week at least. I drink much less alcohol than I used to and eat much less red meat. I actually gave up caffeinated coffee (WTF?!?!). I NEVER thought that would happen in a million years. I love coffee, but I mostly drink mint tea now. I do fall off that wagon every time I work lots of overtime at work. I work night shift and usually, I don’t drink coffee anymore. However, the other week, I finished a pay period with 113 hours. I most certainly had regular coffee that couple of weeks! However, in the past, I would have been carrying in two double shot cappuccinos for the shift. Not now.
–Amplification of the senses—this is by far my most favorite symptom!! I am totally cultivating this one. I changed my diet for this one. I don’t do this all the time yet, but I would not mind if I did. I now sometimes see the energy around my cats (mostly while meditating when my vibration is highest). I also have seen energy around people. This has happened twice so far. Both times I was outside at a picnic. Being out in nature helps your vibration. I can’t say that I have had changes to my senses of hearing, touch or smell, but I do have that enhanced sense of taste. I also actually taste the chemicals in junk I used to love like some snack pies I used to eat. Now I find them gross and disgusting. Blech.
–Power surges—most definitely. For the last year or two, I have been feeling heat surges that last maybe thirty seconds to a minute. I don’t sweat, I just get hot from the inside out. The outside or room temperature do not matter. Being the scientist that I am, I actually measured my temperature with a thermometer during and after these surges. My temperature was raised anywhere from 0.5 to 1degree F. One reading was actually raised two degrees! The other thing I have felt is energy surges. I can only describe these as orgasms without the muscle contractions. They run through my heart and upper torso. Obviously, I do not find these unpleasant. (hee hee) They are totally separate from the heat surges and last no more than 5 seconds. I have no problems with them when I am sitting. I did have one the other day while I was walking. The wave of energy did knock me slightly off course and I had to take a side step. Neither of these things happens with any warning. Neither has been an issue of concern.
–A range of physical manifestations—Yes, some achiness, but mostly digestive problems. Namely diarrhea. Gross but true. Years ago, in my late twenties and early thirties, I was clearing a lot of stuff emotionally—crying, depression, anger. Now, I am clearing mostly through this physical symptom. It was part of the reason that I changed my diet and gave up coffee, but it still happens sometimes. Mostly coinciding with astronomical events like solstices, equinoxes, and eclipses. These are associated with lots of energy moving around. They are times of much clearing and/or much new energy moving into our bodies. A few years ago, I took an intensive three-day class on Integrative Energy Therapy (IET). It is energy healing with archangels. It was Friday evening and all-day long Saturday and Sunday. These classes had attunements like Reiki, so lots of energy was being downloaded into me with each attunement. By late Sunday morning, I was on the toilet, holding the trash can on my lap for fear of vomiting and in a cold sweat. I was being over whelmed with the energy exchange. I asked Archangel Raphael to make it go away and he did. That weekend was the start of my relationship with my bud, Raphi. That is a short but interesting story. Maybe one day I will write about my experiences with some of the Archangels. Onward ho!
–Vivid dreams—there have been some doozies. See “Increased intuitive abilities and altered states of consciousness” below.
–A desire to break free from restrictive pattern, life-draining jobs, consumptive lifestyles and toxic people or situations—yes, absolutely. I gave up my supervisor position three years ago for a less stressful job. I then gave up that job because my boss was horrible and made a stressful job more stressful. I moved from day shift to night shift. I have moved around within my four-hospital system to do this. I would love to get out of healthcare altogether and make a full time living with my spiritual pursuits. That is my goal. I AM putting that out to the Universe right now.
–A sense of impending-ness—I personally do not find this to be anxiety-ridden. I find it to be more of a sense of anticipation and excitement like something wonderful is coming. This feeling was particularly strong for me this past June.
–A feeling you are somehow different—just ask my mom, she’ll tell you. 😉 She cannot quite believe that I came out of her some days. I just tell her, “This apple fell from the tree and rolled away a little bit, but I am still an apple, my mommy.” I do not talk to her about much of this. Past conversations about some of the not-quite-so-weird stuff have involved several oh-my-Gods from her. I told her that I was writing this blog. She asked if she would want to read it. I said, “You probably should not read it.” Her reply was, “You’re probably right. Good luck with it.”
–You find a spiritual track that makes sense to you and “speaks to you” at the most profound levels—this is totally my discovery of “Ascension.” It explains so much to me and makes complete sense to me. It gave birth to this blog.
–Invisible presences—I mentioned above the tingling sensations I get while meditating. I feel that this is sometimes the higher vibrational energy of another being (angel, guide, or other higher dimensional being) whose presence I am feeling. Other times I feel it is just increased energy from Gaia or the Central Sun that I am pulling through during the meditation. Once, several years ago while I was in counseling for my childhood abuse, I was lying on my side in bed crying, I had the distinct impression that my hair was smoothed back from my face by what felt like feathers. I believe I was being comforted by one of my guardian angels.
–Portents, visions, “illusions,” numbers and symbols—I see so many number combinations now that I no longer “count” 11, 22, 33, etc. I usually only smile and say thank you for triplets or quads or such combos as 2526, 139139, etc. These are messages from above. There are several websites that can be Googled to find number meanings/messages. I usually say to my phone, “Angel number ____.” I get a list of sites with meanings. Lately, I have been getting repeated 888 (abundance), 555 (change is coming), and 999 (end of a cycle). All great messages as far as I am concerned. I also find feathers and coins. These meanings can also be Googled. When I was contemplating leaving my dayshift job for a nightshift job, I was not sure if it was the right idea or if I was supposed to stay and learn a lesson. After I decided to apply for the change and then accepted the new position, I found a couple of pennies, and 3 feathers in a week’s time. I took this as confirmation that I was on the right track. I always appreciate these signs/messages and say, “Thank you.”.
–Increased synchronicity and many small miracles–I really love when this happens. Case in point: Melchizedek is my higher guide on this journey. My work schedule is such that I work on Friday night one weekend. I then work Saturday night the next weekend. On the third weekend I have a three-day weekend. A local Spiritual Expo has an all-day program for Initiation into the Order of Melchizedek in a couple of weeks. I saw it last spring (on a weekend I worked) and was very interested in attending. Guess who’s three-day weekend falls on the three days of the spiritual expo? I AM signed up for the workshop and looking forward to attending the expo all three days for different lectures and exploring the vendors. Yahoo! Or, I will do something big such as move and everything just lines up so well and goes so smoothly that I know it is what I Am supposed to be doing. These things don’t have to be big. They can be small little fun things that happen too.
–Increased intuitive abilities and altered states of consciousness—this is the one my mother doesn’t want to know about. I have had some out of body experiences. I remember as a small child once that I woke up my mother and because I was afraid and crying. I had the sensation of my bed moving up and down. Not sure what that was. I also remember the strangest feeling of being in a cold black void like space. I was all alone and naked, but I felt like I was swathed in puffy sheets of cotton balls. This is what I remember. It was very scary at the time, but I wonder now if it was an out-of-body experience. I have not had it again. I did have the most vivid dream of my life in May of 2017. It seemed so real, but I was asleep. Shortly thereafter, I was at a retreat where I had a chance to have a reading with this wonderful and gifted woman who could speak to my guides. I described this dream to her. She asked my guides about it and I was informed that it was no dream. That was definitely an out-of-body experience. I sometimes wonder if I physically went somewhere during that dream. My pillow was with me and it is very distinctive. Not sure how my pillow got there.
–Communication with Spirit–I do this now. It is a relatively recent development since the dream from May 2017. I am able to communicate telepathically with higher dimensional beings. Thus far it has included multiple archangels and multiple extraterrestrials. You may have read previous entries that included this communication. The postings from Archangels Michael and Azrael on God and Ascension, respectively, were from this communication. I will definitely be posting much more of that.
–Feeling closer to animals and plants—I used to think that I was taking my cats along with me on my Ascension journey. I now think they are taking me along with them. Especially my white cat, Eddie, whom I often refer to as “Bae Bae.” There will be a blog post about how I found her too.
–Seeing beings of other dimensions—also another blog post, but yep. Not whole beings like you might think, but just an eye.
–Dizziness—yes, I had lots of this in August from all the eclipses and the Lion’s Gate on 8/8. This August was very busy energetically.
–Memories surface—see Ascension Symptoms Part II post.
–Decluttering—an urge to purge. I started going through my closets, my books, my DVDs, my kitchen cabinets, everything in the last couple of years. I threw some stuff away and made several trips to Goodwill. I got rid of things that I had had for years. I got rid of so much stuff that when I got a larger apartment (not by choice, I wanted a one bedroom apartment and only a two bedroom was available in the complex that I wanted to live in at the time), I had to buy a couple of bookcases because there was an echo! I am still clearing out stuff a little bit at a time.
–Cyclic hair loss—I first noticed this in February of 2017 and it freaked me out so much that I went to the doctor for it. This is the only symptom that really caused me any stress. I showed up with a “before” picture from Christmas and the “after” picture of me with a friend that was taken in February. After several blood tests and finding nothing wrong with me except a low Vitamin D level, I was given a thirty-day prescription of a supplement and told to find an over-the-counter supplement with 2000 IU of D thereafter. The doctor did not think that was causing my hair loss, but gave no other explanation. I Googled low D and found that it caused hair loss anecdotally. So, I thought that might be it, except, it didn’t stop with my supplement use. I started paying attention to when it occurred and noticed it would come and go. It seemed to really thin out during high energy times like solstices, eclipses, attunements or other upgrades, and this past August was pretty bad. I first noticed it in February after I had completed Essential Energy Balancing I on January 7th and got my Reiki Master attunement on January 14th. In between there are days when my hair seems thicker like it is back to its old self, not that my hair was ever that thick, but I always had a lot of it. Now I just take hair vitamins and try not to wash my hair too often. I just want to say that I am thankful for the halo of little hairs around my head and I don’t even mind that some are gray.
–An increase in Spiritual Discernment—this one is also very handy! This is my own personal built-in bullshit meter. I often just know when something is off, when someone is lying. I have read conflicting information on the internet (can you believe it???!!) and I use my discernment to decide whether or not I believe it. Often times discernment helps me to decide what resonates with me and what does not. Once, I read an article on the web and I actually had voices screaming in my head, “NNNOOOO!!!!” It is usually not that blatant, but that was loud and clear. It is not fool-proof, but it works pretty well.
–Burping—this one is a little funny. I will sometimes wake up and meditate before I eat. I will occasionally burp during my meditation and then stop when I am done meditating. The woman who gave me my Reiki II attunement used to burp so much giving Reiki that she kept a giant bowl of individually wrapped mint LifeSavers in her room.
That’s a total of twenty-four symptoms over the years. Most have been pretty painless. All the changes have been interesting. I cannot wait to see what else happens. If you have experienced any of these things and think you are going crazy, you are not. You are also not alone. Please feel free to comment below and share any symptoms you may have had or are currently experiencing.
Just a little addendum, I went to the holistic expo and got another attunement the last weekend in September for my initiation into the Order of Melchizedek. I AM now an ordained minister who can perform weddings, funerals and baptisms! A week later, I am experiencing periodic “Ascension flu” symptoms of sneezing, runny nose, congestion and scratchy throat. First time I got these symptoms. Things keep moving along.
Thanks for reading!
Peace, Love and Light,
Aunt Jeannie
