MARY MAGDALENE: The Unique Role of the Feminine at This Time
By Mercedes Kirkel
Question: How would Yeshua and Mary Magdalene wish that we would continue the work in the time we find ourselves in?
Mary Magdalene: Time is not an issue for us.
The work is always the same. It is the work of love. Yet at different times that shows up and manifests in different ways.
There is a particular way that the work of love is manifesting at this particular time. It has especially to do with the love between the Masculine and the Feminine. This is the great healing in your world at this time.
Many have been aware that this is a time of the Feminine becoming stronger and moving more into the forefront, even taking a kind of a leadership role. This is true, but it is far from the whole picture.
The Feminine path is always the path of love. Many at this time have a misunderstanding about the role of the Feminine becoming strong. They are confusing the Feminine and the Masculine. They envision the Feminine becoming strong in a way that is more of a Masculine way. But this is not what is being called for. It is not what has been empowered for this time.
What has been empowered is for the Feminine to become strong, so that she may become strong in her loving, and in particular her loving of the Masculine. That love will heal the Masculine and allow the Masculine to open in love to the Feminine. This is the great gateway or doorway that human beings are moving into and through altogether at this time. It requires this uniting of the Masculine and Feminine.
This is much more than just having a love relationship with a partner—although that is obviously a most wonderful thing and a most wonderful form of blessing and practice for yourself and for all beings. But that is only a part of the picture. The bigger picture is this love within your selves of the Masculine and Feminine.
For many, there is still a great deal of work to do relative to loving the Feminine—loving your bodies, loving your sexuality, loving your emotions, and really embracing these fully to receive their gifts. Many people have used these aspects of their being in certain ways, but not necessarily for the highest ways.
Your body is a temple. It is to be used and cared for as a temple. It is a temple of God. It is ultimately your manifestation of God. As with all temples, each one is unique and each one is perfect in its own way.
Your sexuality is a practice for transformation. It is a practice for bringing forth new life, new light into the world. It is also a practice for transforming your life and ultimately your world. That is the function of sexuality, which has barely been understood by most people. It does not even require a partner to engage that. All have sexual energy. It is the life force within. It can always be used for transformation.
Your emotions are one of the greatest gifts for powerful, deep connection to God. Most of you do not understand this relative to the painful emotions. Most of you carry great fear relative to the painful emotions. That is ultimately fear of the Feminine.
There is great healing to do for your relationship to your body, sexuality, and emotions to become strong and full, and to become a manifestation of your love of the Feminine within yourself, for both men and women. Women will most likely lead the way in these arenas—in love of the body, sexuality, and emotions. Through that they become the vessel of love that lights up the Masculine.
This is what will bring your world out of the place it is now—a place of tremendous darkness in many ways. It is the darkness of the Masculine not accompanied by the Feminine, the darkness of the mind realms lost and adrift from the heart. The uniting of the Masculine and Feminine through the Feminine’s love will change that, through the energy of the Feminine drawing the Masculine into a state of love and union.
The Masculine also brings gifts. More than anything else, the Masculine brings the gift of consciousness, the light of consciousness, which the Feminine so needs, always.
This is the most beautiful union, of which I know a great deal, and which I have had the great joy to experience in its fullness. This is your destiny, what is before all of you. This is what you are moving into and what you are here to share with the world, as well.
It is a magnificent time. Do not be fooled by the media. Do not be fooled by the bad news. There are many forces trying to hold back the gates of change. They will not be successful. Do not let them be successful within your own mind and heart. Your love is much stronger and that is what will prevail.
Does this answer your question?
Questioner: Oh yes. Thank you.

5 Ascension Insights Most People Aren’t Talking About: Insight #5
By Mercedes Kirkel
INSIGHT #5: BECOMING YOUR OWN GUIDE
One of the most important signs of going through the ascension process is that more and more, you begin to trust your own process. Even more importantly, you start to trust yourself as the guide of that process.
You shift from feeling worried about what’s happening to trusting what’s happening.
You notice that even though you’ve gone through difficult times, you’re still here.
You realize that even though you’re not functioning in ways you’re used to or familiar with, nonetheless all the things that need to get done somehow seem to get done.
In fact, you may even be doing a whole lot better than you expected!
You start to see that you’re being guided and it’s an inside job. You begin to “read” what’s happening in your body, energy, and emotions as part of your guidance. You begin to be directed by your higher self, if you haven’t previously, and to follow that guidance.
You begin to have a deep sense of OK-ness. In the midst of the chaos and upheaval, there’s a deep knowing that everything is really OK.
You start to lose interest in being led or validated by others. You’re less drawn to others who are teaching, because your guidance is coming to you directly, tailored perfectly for you. You’re still open to learning things from others. But you feel acutely sensitive when that crosses over into any kind of authoritarian dynamic, which you may feel slightly (or perhaps, more than slightly) allergic to.
Welcome to your ascension process! It’s uniquely yours, while simultaneously being woven into the greater tapestry of the collective upleveling of humanity.
Thank you for doing your part. It matters. We all matter.

5 Ascension Insights Most People Aren’t Talking About: Insight #4
By Mercedes Kirkel
INSIGHT #4: THIS IS A DEATH PROCESS
We’re dying to the third dimension.
We’re dying to our old way of being. We’re dying to our previous beliefs of what our life would consist of.
Some of what people are experiencing seems remarkably similar to what people go through who are physically dying. There can be a sense of loneliness. There can be increasing ambivalence about things that used to seem important. There can be increasing difficulty functioning in the old ways that seemed necessary to survive. Things you used to enjoy socially don’t seem attractive or important anymore.
You don’t seem able to “do your work” anymore. You may feel anxiety about covering your physical and financial needs, perhaps alternating with apathy about your old life and/or increasing acceptance of the changes occurring.
There may be an intensified longing to go “home.” You may sense a need to finish some soul-work, as part of completing your soul contract for this lifetime.
When I told one of my friends about what was happening to me, he said, “You’re not going to die on me, are you?” My response was that I didn’t know what was going to happen.
Physical-death may be one of the avenues this transition could take. It certainly seems to be a kind of spiritual death.
I believe one of the main things holding us to the third dimension is the belief in death as the opposite, or end, of life. This is possibly the most fundamental form that duality takes in this dimension—perceiving death as the enemy or opposer of life. A great deal of our energy in 3D is spent “fighting” to survive and live. This consciousness is reflected in what doctors sometimes say—that they “won” or “lost” the battle, when referring to a patient living or dying.
Through the ascension process, we move into a whole different relationship with life and death. We come to understand death as part of life, a continuation of the process of our soul in another form. As Mary Magdalene said in Mary Magdalene Beckons:
There is a veil over your remembering of all the lifetimes you have lived and of all the other realms you have been in between your lifetimes. There is a veil over your remembering of your greater self, which is so much larger than the part of you that you’re aware of in this third-dimensional reality. And there is a veil over your absolute connection to, your absolute inherence in, God. If you could remember all that and know it as your present-time and never-changing reality, you wouldn’t have the idea of death that so many of you have. You would see death as a change of clothes, like a snake shedding its skin. When you die, you’ve outgrown your physical circumstances and you’re ready to move on to something that’s going to serve your next phase of your soul’s journey. You might think of it as being something like getting a new car.
For the ascension process to occur, we must stop fighting death—be it physical or spiritual death. Instead, we allow our relationship to reality to transform. Then we begin to experience what is being born anew, in and through and as us.

MARY MAGDALENE: Receiving the Divine Feminine
An Excerpt From
MARY MAGDALENE BECKONS: JOIN THE RIVER OF LOVE
by Mercedes Kirkel
[Note from Mercedes: This is the first message I ever received from Mary Magdalene, and it remains as true and timely now as when it originally came through. I offer it once again, in honor of Mary’s feast day.]
Greetings, beloved ~
I am here. Do not doubt my presence. Doubt is part of your mind. I am here to help free you from your doubting mind.
I have waited two thousand years to come forth, for the turning of the ages when the Divine Feminine can be received, honored, and reinstated in her rightful place as the equal partner and lover of the Divine Masculine. There is much to be done for this to be accomplished, for the Divine Feminine has suffered much repression and denial so that most are afraid of her and no longer know her. I am here to help change that. This is the time for the Feminine to come to the front, to lead in this progression into the new age. It is the time of love and honoring of the Feminine, listening to the Feminine, and allowing the Feminine to lead so that balance may be reestablished and we may become whole.
And what does this mean for all of you? You are in the process of learning to reconnect with, trust, and open to the Feminine within yourself—as your body, your sexuality, your emotions. You are learning to surrender your thinking to pure presence, to surrender your lower mind to the heart. In doing this, the veils surrounding your sacred mind can be lifted, and the marriage of the sacred heart and sacred mind can occur. You are to celebrate that marriage through the ongoing joy of bringing the light into your body, merging it with love, and sending this empowered love-light out into the world.
Many of you have become alienated from the Feminine within yourself. You’ve become afraid and cut off from your body and your emotions and your sexuality and your feeling heart. It will take practice and engagement of these sacred parts of yourself to reopen to these pathways of the Divine within you.
It is not enough to think about this change. It is not enough to gather knowledge. You are tending to be unbalanced with your collecting knowledge about the world, yourself, and what is happening. It can be helpful to understand, but that will not make a difference if it is not balanced with practice and action. It is like raising a child. If you are a parent and are raising a child, it can be helpful to read books, go to classes, and talk with others about raising children. But if that is all you do, you will not serve the children. Most important is what you actually do with the children that will make a difference for them, your engagement with them every day.
Right now, you are in a grand process of transformation and growth, and you are the parent to yourself. The most important thing is your engagement, your practice with yourself on a daily basis. The Feminine parts of yourself have suffered and are shut down, atrophied, from not being embraced and engaged for so long. So now it will take practice and engagement to change that.
There are some who understand this, who have engaged this practice themselves, and who can help you to learn these practices. This one who channels this message is such a one. Now is the time to learn these practices and engage them continually. It will take time, but such a short time compared to the eons of time that these parts of you have been shut down.
Your body is beautiful. Your sexuality is sacred. Your emotions are pathways to God. Your presence is a blessed gift. Your open heart is the most powerful vessel of transformation, of receiving divine light and empowering it with love. Understand this, but do not stop there. Learn the practices for receiving and transmitting love-light through all these channels, and practice this until it becomes a dance, a joy, a beautiful part of who you are and what you bring to all.
I love you most dearly. I champion your transformation, and through that the transformation of your world.
In love and light,
I AM Mary Magdalene

5 Ascension Insights Most People Aren’t Talking About: Insight #3
Image by I Jonathan Zander
By Mercedes Kirkel
INSIGHT #3: DON’T ASSUME YOUR PROCESS WILL LOOK LIKE ANYONE ELSE’S
Most, if not all, of the difficult symptoms people experience in the ascension process are signs of purification. As our energy system opens to stronger and higher frequencies, any blocks we have in our energy circuits are getting blasted with new levels of energy and “worked on.” It’s like a hose with a kink in it. The water pressure (energy) is building until the kinks (our blocks) release or burst.
That mounting pressure and release of blockages can be experienced in all kinds of ways:
- physically—exhaustion, changes in sleep, changes relative to food and diet, nausea, decrease in motor control, rashes, back ache, changes in vision, old or chronic disease symptoms reappearing, etc.
- energetically—lethargy, feeling amped-up, energy roller-coaster, hypersensitivity, kundalini symptoms, feeling fed by nature and drained by unnatural environments, etc.
- emotionally—mood swings, anxiety, depression, doubt, apathy, joy, etc.
- mentally—confusion, mind fog, forgetting, difficulty focusing, etc.
- socially—not tolerating being in groups, feeling invisible, not enjoying mind-based interactions, repulsion to authoritarianism and rules, not enjoying people or activities we used to enjoy, etc.
Being aware of the kinds of symptoms other people are experiencing can be reassuring. It can also give some sense of what the process might look like.
But everyone’s blocks are different. And the way people release energy is different. So there will inevitably be variations.
We’re all unique and our paths are unique.

5 Ascension Insights Most People Aren’t Talking About: Insight #2

By Mercedes Kirkel
INSIGHT #2: IT’S OK TO EXPERIENCE DOUBT
Many people experience doubt as part of the ascension process. It can even be seen as one of the signs that it’s happening. We’re detaching from being mind-based in the familiar 3D way and morphing into something new and unfamiliar. Doubt seems to be one of the frequent byproducts.
I strongly believe it’s 100% OK to feel doubt about the ascension process and your experiences in relation to it. It doesn’t mean you’re doing something wrong. It doesn’t mean you’re un-spiritual. And it doesn’t mean your experiences aren’t real.
Doubt is simply a feeling that may accompany our experiences. Like all feelings, it’s pointing to something in ourselves we need to attend to. It’s showing us a part of our own divinity we’ve disconnected from and need to reconnect with. Mary Magdalene’s recommendation relative to doubt, or any other feeling, is to make use of it to guide you back to your own wholeness in God.
What aspect of our inner divinity is doubt pointing to in these circumstances? I think it’s pointing to our need to balance our beliefs and experiences about the ascension process with the honesty that we don’t yet have the bigger picture of what’s fully happening and where it’s leading. It’s like a picture that’s still coming in and we don’t yet have the whole vision and understanding. I feel acceptance in this, a letting go in God, and a deeper trust of the process. Through that, I come to peace and my doubt dissolves.
I find Mary’s process extremely helpful for dealing with doubt. Instead of discounting either my experiences or my doubt, I make use of the doubt to open me to a deeper level of connection with God. Then I’ve really gotten the gold.
I teach Mary Magdalene’s process of relating to feelings in this different way in THE MAGDALENE HEART PATH Online Course. I think it’s an essential part of the ascension process that most people haven’t yet realized. People who’ve taken the course have found the process deeply valuable, even life-changing.

5 Ascension Insights Most People Aren’t Talking About: Insight #1
By Mercedes Kirkel
INSIGHT #1: NO ONE KNOWS WHAT’S HAPPENING
I certainly don’t “know” what’s happening. All I have are my experiences and beliefs.
What I trust are actual experiences—my own experiences and the experiences of others.
I hold beliefs much more lightly. I evaluate beliefs to see if they match my experiences and intuition. I see if the beliefs support me in being the kind of person I want to be. If they do, I make space for them as possibilities, perhaps even likely possibilities. If not, I let them go.
But even if I resonate with a belief and choose to keep it in my collection, that still doesn’t mean I “know” that thing to be true. It remains a belief until it’s my actual experience.
I haven’t met anyone in the third dimension who I believe “knows” what this ascension process is all about or where it’s leading. Many of us have ideas, including things we’ve heard from others. But that hasn’t convinced me that those things are facts. They might be possible. They also may not be what is happening or is going to happen.
I think it’s critical to differentiate beliefs from experience. If we’re aware that what we’re thinking is a belief, rather than something that’s been experienced, we tend to be much more balanced in how we hold that idea.
Having that kind of relationship to our own beliefs leads to being aware when others are expressing beliefs—even if those others think the things they’re expressing are “THE truth.” We can see those others as equals with their own beliefs, just like us. Doing so, we can stay in our own power, rather than giving our power away to them (through submission or rebellion).
We can also be respectful of others’ beliefs, even if they don’t match ours. Respect and agreement are two different things.
I believe that kind of balance, awareness, equality, empowerment, and respect are all signs of the ascension process being underway. They’re also some of the inner divine qualities that Mary Magdalene talks about as being bridges to our own divinity.
One way of seeing the ascension process is that we’re shifting from being mind-and knowledge-based to being based in our own divinity, which we connect to through our heart. That inner divinity is something we can experience.
That deeply resonates with me and calls to my soul.

MARY MAGDALENE: Feminine Energy of Fullness
By Mercedes Kirkel
Question: Can you talk about the Feminine energy of fullness? Like being full?
Mary Magdalene: Most definitely, this is one of the essential forms of the Feminine. The Masculine is emptiness; the Feminine is fullness.
You have spiritual traditions in your world where emptiness is espoused as the path. An example of this is Zen Buddhism. Even in the forms of meditation practice that most people have learned, the practice is to empty oneself, to clear oneself, to clear the mind, to clear your thoughts, to clear whatever’s arising, and to find God through that. So meditation is viewed as a process of emptying. This is a Masculine orientation.
The Masculine orientation is an effective process for reaching the Masculine aspect of God. This is the aspect of God that most spiritual teachers have told you is “the way.” It is one approach.
The Feminine is most definitely about fullness. In some of your older cultures that were very Feminine-based, you would see images of the Feminine with huge bellies, very round and full, because that was the force of life and birth. A woman who is pregnant and about to give birth is the icon of the Feminine in fullness. You have images of the Feminine as your Earth in its fullness. Truly, all of manifestation is the Feminine.
The Feminine and the Masculine are two faces of God. The Masculine is what is beyond manifestation, beyond form and incarnation. It is what transcends, what goes beyond. You have the Buddhist teaching of “gate, gate, para gate, parasam gate, bodhi svaha,” which translates as “Beyond, beyond. Beyond the beyond. Hail the goer.” This is a reference to going beyond form to the transcendent, which is without form. This can be seen as emptiness.
What is form? Form is the Feminine. All of manifestation and physicality is one way that manifestation occurs. But there are many other ways. Your thoughts, your feelings, your energy—you experience lots of different kinds of manifestation.
Each being is a universe of fullness unto themself. Then you have all your beings, just in this world. Then there are worlds upon worlds upon worlds, just in the physical. Then there are dimensions upon dimensions upon dimensions. This is the great arena of the Feminine of all form, all arising—from the most dense form (some say denser than physicality) to the most light-based forms of light beings, angels, subtle sounds, lights. All of that is the Feminine. It is the tremendous fullness.
And the Feminine is in union with the Masculine.
These are the two paths that most beings in your world have known. The path of the Masculine is the path of transcendence—going beyond form, going beyond the Feminine—to know God. The path of the Feminine is the path of knowing God as all forms—every aspect of manifestation, all of it is God. Both paths lead to God.
The most direct path, for most people, is the path of union. It is the path of embracing all form, manifestation, and arising as God, and simultaneously knowing that God is beyond all of it. You can say it is a dream or an illusion, and it is also God. It is both.
This knowingness of the union of these two seeming opposites is a path of realization. It is not something to be believed or thought into reality. It is to be known and realized.
For most beings, there are stages of embracing the Masculine. This is why people do practices such as meditation, because it is valuable to develop one’s Masculine and to more and more connect with the transcendental aspect of God, which goes beyond all form.
It is also valuable to know the Feminine as God. That begins with knowing yourself as God—knowing your body, your energy, your sexuality, your emotions, as God.
This ultimately leads to the essence of the union of the Masculine and Feminine, which is the union of Divine Masculine as consciousness, which has no form, and Divine Feminine as love, which is embracing EVERYTHING that is. This union of love and consciousness is the highest form of knowingness of God.
Is that helpful?

My Ascension Breakthrough
By Mercedes Kirkel
Thank you to everyone who responded to my last blog post (MY ASCENSION REPORT—PART 2). I felt hugely supported, just by hearing from so many of you who are involved in the ascension process and learning about your experiences. (To see some of the responses, scroll down to the RESPONSES section at the bottom of that post.)
I want to share what’s happened for me since I wrote that post, because the process has continued and I’ve had a big breakthrough—YAY!!!!!
I also want to share what I learned from hearing so many people’s responses and seeing how it did or didn’t match my experience. I’ve actually distilled what I’ve learned into FIVE KEY INSIGHTS INTO THE ASCENSION PROCESS THAT MOST PEOPLE AREN’T TALKING ABOUT. These are:
- No one knows what’s happening.
- Our experiences are real.
- Don’t assume your process will look like anyone else’s.
- This is a death process.
- We’re becoming our own guides.
I have A LOT to say about each one of these insights and will be sharing more over the next few weeks in this blog.
But for now I want to share my breakthrough with you. Earlier this week, in the midst of reading the responses from so many of you (thank you all, again!) and feeling into what it all means, I went through a shift. It happened within about an hour-long period and had certain steps and connections that I went through.
While I can’t recall the details of the process any longer, the essence of what happened is that I went from confusion, doubt, and concern into trust.
I wasn’t trying to get to trust. That never works for me. My process is the very Feminine process Mary Magdalene describes of surrendering to painful feelings and allowing God to direct me from that place. But seemingly in an instant, I went from confusion, doubt, and concern into trust.
It was as though I’d crossed a fundamental divide and suddenly I was experiencing everything from a whole new perspective. I would describe that new “place” as being united with God.
From this place, I knew that whatever I experienced was fine—including confusion, doubt, concern, or anything else. It wasn’t my preference to experience those things, but it wasn’t going to shake my trust. That trust was coming from being unwaveringly connected to God.
From this place, I realized that I could bring discipline to my experience—not as a means to get to God, because I was already there. But discipline could make the process a whole lot easier. Suddenly, it just made sense to do it. I realized that I had lots of spiritual practices in my “bag of tricks” that I hadn’t been making use of.
A few hours later, one of my friends sent me a link to a video of Victor Oddo talking about what’s happening this month in the ascension process. I don’t know who Victor Oddo is or where he’s sourcing his information from, but he was exactly describing what I had just gone through. And I really enjoyed his “non-typical” spiritual presence—that he’s young, high-energy, no-nonsense, and not assuming any kind of spiritual “posturing.”
Anyway, I felt delighted. I took it as the universe (read: my personal guidance) affirming that I was completely on track.
That night, I started applying my spiritual disciplines. Before I went to bed, I engaged some of the practices from SUBLIME UNION for circulating energy through the chakras. In the morning, I meditated longer than usual, spending extra time resting in my heart and using my 4D manifestation process for strengthening myself.
Lo and behold, I felt a lot better the rest of the day. My energy was strong and I was able to get a lot done, which was reassuring since I feel like I’ve fallen behind and have been barely covering the essentials during the last few ascension waves.
Since then I’ve continued doing the practices and my energy has continued to be strong. I’m being productive and enjoying my life again. That feels great!
Will this last? I certainly hope so, and only time will tell. But even if my energy takes a dip, or even a dive, I don’t think I’ll lose my new center of experiencing whatever happens from the place of being united with God. I don’t think I’m going to lose that, any more than I’m going to forget how to walk or ride a bicycle. It’s there. And I sense that will make all the difference.
I have one last thought. I don’t think it’s any accident that all this is coming up for me right now. The YESHUA AND MARY MAGDALENE CHANNELINGS I’ve been receiving over the past weeks as part of the current series has been off-the-charts powerful and profound. And the topic for the next one is “What Is the Ascension Process.” If you haven’t been participating in this series, I strongly encourage you to join in. The series will be continuing until the end of August and you can listen to the recordings of the previous channelings. To learn more, CLICK HERE.

My Ascension Report—Part 2
Image by Adityamadhav83 (Own work)
By Mercedes Kirkel
In early May, I wrote a blog post titled AM I ASCENDING OR AM I DYING? In it I described some very dramatic experiences I was having. At the time, I wasn’t sure what had caused them, but my guess was that it was part of the ascension process.
It’s now about a month later and I’m a month further into the continuation of those experiences. I had no idea this would last so long, but it has. I’m now realizing this may not be a temporary state.
For those of you who aren’t sure what I’m referring to as “the ascension process,” it’s the process I believe is underway for all of us of transitioning from the third dimension into higher dimensions of reality. It’s what Mary Magdalene and Yeshua are most focused on in their communications to me and what they want to help all of us with. And it’s the focus of the new spirituality of COMMUNION™ and the channeling series I’m currently receiving from Yeshua and Mary Magdalene.
My symptoms over the past month have seemed to come in waves, lasting from a few days to over a week, and then receding until the next wave. During the wave, my energy body feels like it’s vibrating at a very high frequency and I have the sense that a very big energy is moving through me and altering me. I’ve likened it to high voltage surging through a wire. During those times, I feel confused and fuzzy mentally, and have a hard time focusing. My connection to my physical body feels rather distant. My coordination is off, food doesn’t agree with me, and I feel lightly nauseous much of the time. I feel weak but not sleepy.
On top of all that, during these waves I feel extremely sensitive. I’m feeling things much more deeply and they’re affecting me much more than usual—especially emotionally and energetically. Now I’ve always been a very sensitive person. Ask anyone who knows me and I think they’ll agree. But this is taking it to a whole new level, and it’s been quite challenging to integrate.
In fact, all of these symptoms have been super challenging. Over the last month, I feel like I’ve been “riding the waves,” doing my best to stay functional in the midst of it, and basically just get through. It hasn’t been easy. Many times I’ve had to let go of functioning in the way I was planning or thought I needed to be doing. It’s requiring a whole new level of surrender and trust—trust that every thing necessary will get handled, even if I can’t do it in the ways I’m used to or thought it was going to happen.
For a very functional person (me), that’s hard!
Part of what motivated me to write this post is to let everyone know that I’m not fully functioning in the third dimension anymore. I’m giving my official notice. I’m doing my best to honor agreements—especially my soul agreements to bring this work through from Mary Magdalene and now Yeshua. But I’m not “all here” anymore.
For example, I’ve noticed that I’m not keeping up with email correspondence the way I have in the past. I’m doing my best, but I’m noticing gaps where I’ve missed something or failed to respond to something. I hugely apologize if you’re one of the people who haven’t heard back from me. If that’s the case, please write again and let me know that I didn’t respond.
This is just one example, but it’s part of a bigger pattern. It’s part of why I’ve been asking for help recently. I just can’t do things like I have in the past. I hugely appreciate all the people who’ve responded to my requests for help. It’s part of what I see as Spirit showing me it’s OK to let go and that things that need to happen will get taken care of in different ways. Fortunately, it seems to be happening.
This reminds me of what I hear people tell those who are dying. They help them to let go and trust that everything will be handled after they leave. I think a part of me is dying. My 3D-self is dying, or perhaps more accurately metamorphosing into something else. Is this what the caterpillar feels like when it’s inside the cocoon?
The other reason that motivated me to write this post is because I don’t actually know “for sure” why this is happening. I don’t personally know anyone else who has gone through this and heard the results. I’m not in contact with others who are experiencing it right now. So I feel doubt about my own conclusion that this must be part of the ascension process.
I’m fundamentally a skeptic. I don’t generally believe things until I experience them, or at least know others—who I trust—who’ve experienced them. While there’s a lot of general talk about ascension symptoms among certain groups of spiritually oriented people, I often wonder if if what they’re attributing to ascension or calling ascension symptoms is really what’s happening, or if it’s something else.
However, my current experiences are reminding me of something else that I do trust. They’re reminding me of what’s called “kundalini awakening” in the Indian tradition. I trust that kundalini energy is real and that people can have very powerful experiences when it’s stimulated or “awakened.” This is because of my own kundalini experiences in the past, as well as reports of others.
If I relate to my present experiences as a kundalini process, then I feel more trusting of what I’m experiencing. While this may seem like mere semantics to some, to me it offers reassurance from a long-standing tradition based on many people’s experience.
It also makes sense to me that “kundalini rising” may be another way of describing or explaining the ascension process. My understanding is that the ascension process is shifting us from being primarily physically-based to primarily energy-based. I see kundalini as a highly potentized form of life-force energy that moves in a specific current or channel in our nervous system. When that happens, people experience profound transformations in their physical, energetic, emotional, mental, and spiritual bodies.
That sure sounds like ascension to me.
So perhaps ascension and kundalini awakening are very related. Perhaps the kundalini awakening is the process and ascension is the outcome.
Somehow I feel relieved and reassured holding it in that context. I think it’s because there is a precedent for what I’m experiencing that’s associated with spiritual development and evolution.
I would love to hear from others who are having similar experiences to mine. I have hope that hearing others’ experiences would give me more information about what’s really going on, and offer support and companionship in the process.
Are you having “symptoms” or shifts that you attribute to ascension? What are they? When did they occur?
I look forward to hearing your responses.
