love and authenticity are the highest frequencies of all

"I will meet you in your here—mind, body, soul, but I will not lose myself to stay. However, my essence will linger within you forevermore.” ~ M, on interconnectedness and self-love


the silent journey of the soul

An awakened divine feminine is a powerful mirror for souls who are open to the idea of spirituality and healing through presence. She has been enlightened through many trials and tribulations and has mastered herself both emotionally and mentally. She’s found a deeper sense of belonging within herself by balancing her inner dualities, alchemizing pain into wholeness through isolation, faith, and trust. She embodies the dark and light polarity and carries a balanced feminine and masculine energy, a conduit between the spiritual and the physical realms. She is an embodiment of unconditional love and authenticity — a lover of humanity and a protector in the spiritual plane.

SHE IS THE EMBODIMENT OF THESE ELEMENTS:

Fire | Air | Water | Earth

Passion | Independence | Peace | Compassion | Generosity | Intuition | Empathy

JOURNEY IN RESONANCE WITH:

The Black Madonna, Our Lady of the Hermits

“I transform pain and suffering into a greater capacity to love.”


The Great Divide

Duality is a natural, harmonious flow between energetic polarities. Dichotomy, by contrast, requires a stopping point between two opposing ends, mechanically decided by the ego mind. Society teaches dichotomy, and the divine encourages consciousness. The divide we are witnessing in our world is between the whole and the divided, the conscious and the unconscious, the seeker and the non-seeker.

Let’s have some fun with this, shall we?

To Love or Not to Love

Hmm. Love. Why is it such an obsession? Well, maybe because it does not exist. It’s a mystery, and mystery creates obsession. Do not freak out just yet; let me explain. Love is like a butterfly; the more you chase it, the more it flies away. And why would anyone chase it, and why would it fly away? Ah. The million-dollar question indeed. Here’s a short story to get us started: Once upon a time in a far-away land, love was found in the purity of a child until his mother and father convinced him otherwise. The evil king and queen stole the child’s light by busying him with useless activities because of the hollowness they felt inside. Since then, the child became divided inside, seeing love as this unattainable thing that he must suffer in order to have, that he must loudly prove to the world he is deserving of it. He figured out that if he attached the word to a thing or a person, then love would always be his. In a nutshell, this is how love became this grand obsession like a limited Ben & Jerry ice cream flavor. Mmm. Ice cream. This is just one example, as I am certain there are a million other reasons why the word love gets such a bad rap—gladly and sadly, I believe I’ve experienced them all. Gladly because I became a certified lover, and sadly because it was no easy path, okay?

Maybe it is time to get serious before you have a heart attack thinking I have taken love away from you for good. Relax. Love is a beautiful thing indeed; it is what glues humanity together. Actually. Wrong. What glues humanity together is the inner wounds mistaken for the idea of love. The wounds become the deciding factor in “to love or not to love” when it comes to human relationships: familial, platonic, and romantic. On an unconscious level, humans love based on these assumptions: to add, to reduce, to even out, to produce, to remain the same. The lack of convergence between the lower self and the higher self is the internal divide that gets projected outward, causing one to see the world as a divided world. Many walk around fragmented, unconsciously looking for parts of themselves that are missing when what they are truly looking for is a mirror reflection of the inner wounds their souls want to heal; some find those fragments and others stare at their phone, or end up crying on social media. Things are about to get heated here, so try not to get your panties in a bunch if you find yourself in one of the categories—unless, of course, it’s a good category, then you can give me a giant hug. Firstly, love is notorious for receiving unfair judgment from those who have been wronged by it; on the contrary, many overidealize the mystery of it, again, because it’s that exciting or it wouldn’t be such a big deal like an old dirty sock. In the realm of love, humans either become the seeker or the non-seeker of love. We have two types of seekers: (1) the seeker of love who seeks with the intention to love and be loved, but ends up with an a**hole instead. However, this seeker uses each encounter and hurt as an initiation to a better version of themselves; (2) the seeker of love who seeks for the pleasure of hurting themselves and others—the masochists, the jerks of the universe, the ones who refuse to learn the lessons, the non-feelers. They attach themselves to superficial connections that do not require evolution, and so to help inflate their massive ego, too. Yep! I said it. That’s right! Go tell your mother! The non-seekers are those who have completely closed themselves off to the whole thing, surrendering to the comfort of loneliness, wrapping themselves in bubble wrap to be protected against the cruelty of love, a.k.a. avoiding healing: yes, the cowards. Actually, they are all cowards except for number one. Oooh, but wait, another type of non-seeker is the ones who surrender to a love that hurts loudly or silently, but are too afraid to leave (terminated soul contract). Geez, why would anyone do that? I wonder. Oh, right…society, traditions, your best friend, your mother, fear of judgment, lack of self-love, religion, your father, etcetera. The good news is you aren’t locked up in Alcatraz, but the bad news is, Sean Connery’s ghost is not coming to save you out of your self-imposed prison wearing a wetsuit (movie reference: The Rock). Rest in peace, sir. You are still my favorite James Bond.

Intrinsically, the perception and interpretation of love depends on a person’s stage of internal evolution and external circumstances—it is highly interchangeable. It is the magic of fate dancing with destiny for the purpose of healing. In childhood, love is viewed as innocent, pure, and free, and the need to express is almost unnecessary because loving from a state of pureness means presence, but as time passes and one becomes engulfed with the material and the heaviness of the world, love becomes a material idea itself or an obligation. But hooray to the ten percent who have earned that love from within, where love is quite simple: it is an inherent decision based on the requited love for the self because that inner divide is non-existent; to enter a relationship becomes an effortless flow between two sovereign energies unbound by wounds and unfazed by external circumstances, but are magnetized by closely matching scars that have healed separately in their own time and space (frequency match, a cosmic relationship, or a divine love). There is no part of them that wants to modify the other externally or internally because a relationship like this is transcending, where their energies work in tandem: when one rises, the other rises energetically, and the physicality follows. There’s no yelling or blaming like toxic people do. The ego has been neutralized through the healing process so that it cannot survive in the presence of authenticity. I am not saying there will never be arguments, but a deep foundation will easily outweigh them. So you see, love is just a word created for this thing called presence. There is no separation between you and love; you breathe it in like the air, and you feel it in your entire being like the wind. However, without healing, it is impossible to enter this inner state of nirvana.

Okay. Time to pull you out of love and light stuff just for a minute. Let me point out a scary truth that is scarier than Christmas items on store shelves just right after the 4th of July: recognize that the number of individuals who have achieved this level of love for the self is rather small; now imagine how this amount affects the authentic love the children receive in their reality. It’s like a 24-inch puddle of mud in a 25-acre land where the kids have to fight one another to play in it. The hard truth is that as long as one denies the inner wounds, a parent, or anyone, for that matter, is merely loving a child through a wounded lens; that loving a child is an emotional reaction rather than presence. But to become love is agreeing to always be broken, willing to rise from it time and time again until love is embodied. It is a kind of self-devotion incomprehensible to humans living unconsciously. The idea might very well sound like insanity, but it is only insanity when one is not learning the lessons, holding on to the past hurt like it’s gold. Since love is so diverse, maybe love needs a new name — perhaps your name, my beautiful butterfly. So when you’re being a jerk and you end up hurting another because you’re unhealed, then there is no one to blame but your own definition of love, and not your neighbor’s, Frank. And if you end up surrendering to the beauty of true love just like Mr. Darcy, then it might be time that we have a nice chat (singles only, please). Trust that you will be bewitched—body and soul.

Woman or Man — Man or Woman

There is no other way of starting this than with a poem:

“She is a lovely woman, but walks like a man. He’s a man, but he makes her do everything. Where did it all go horribly wrong? Men acting like women and women acting like men; the whole world is lost in this madness.” —m

Yes, I know it’s not the best poem I’ve written, but you get the point—I hope—or we are in trouble. Actually, it is too late; we are already in trouble when our children are experiencing confusion at such an early age. We carry within us both masculine and feminine energy. We were led to believe that we are only one or the other, which is true by God’s definition in regard to the physical vessels, but the long-standing egoic concept of man and woman has created this great divide within each of us. It is because once upon a time, this hyper masculine named, Tony, once told his son, Roberto, that men do not cry. And then, Roberto’s ten sons went out to the world to tell other boys that men are tough and that they are not supposed to cry even if their toes get run over by a bicycle or a tractor. At the same time, Lucy, Tony’s cousin, got tired of waiting alone at home for her husband, so she went out to get a job to prove to the world that she, too, can do things. What she did not know was that she was slowly killing her soft feminine essence by pushing herself too hard; she started operating like a man internally—her nervous system was out of whack. Meanwhile, Roberto’s ten sons and the other boys succeeded in life, but became angrier and more hostile. Oh gee, I wonder why. The boys’ emotions have been suppressed like a lost, rusty coin under a dirty rug. Lucy enjoyed financial independence so much and proving to the world that she can do what men can, so she told all of her female friends about it. Then one day, a group of them huddled over pints and pints of ice cream, complaining about why men want them to plan the dates, and why there are no more flowers arriving. The men, on the other hand, started eating fast-food meals in front of a television watching sports, spitting food out of their mouths while yelling at some poor fellow who dropped the almond-shaped ball because the women are busy lifting weights at the gym or shopping for a Fendi bag and beauty products they cannot afford. Nothing wrong with being physically fit or looking pretty, ladies; my point is, why are you doing it? What unseen forces are making you deadlift 350 pounds of weight and putting on tons of makeup?

The truth is, anyone who carries a pretty messed-up masculine and feminine energy within them can easily get lost in our world of confusion. This inner divide creates so much uncertainty and chaos in the physical reality, and it gets even crazier when the ego gets into the mix along with the external influences, either physically or energetically. Let me explain, and be sure to buckle up as we ride the Ferris wheel from hell: a distorted feminine energy in a man as the physical vessel tends to view women with jealousy and hate, even if he does not admit to it. A man as the physical vessel with a distorted masculine energy generally is controlling of the externalities, especially of the female counterpart, and typically threatened by her success. A distorted feminine energy in a woman vessel naturally depletes their counterpart’s resources and energy. A distorted masculine energy in a woman vessel generally is controlling and wears the pants in any relationship. A man as the physical vessel who is weak in their masculine energy then surrenders to the female counterpart’s authority and silently resents her for it. A man as the physical vessel who is heavily in his feminine energy and distorted masculine energy will emotionally deplete his female counterpart. An unhealed woman who has been mistreated by too many of her male counterparts only wants to side with women and potentially hold a long-standing hate for men, consciously or subconsciously, and vice versa for the unhealed men who have been with too many distorted women vessels. This is why we have groups and organizations predominantly focused on only one or the other gender. I think that it’s a little weird when an organization wants to only help women, for example, but accepts financial support from the male counterpart. It makes no sense to me. If your inner masculine and feminine energy are in shambles, the need to be validated by the world for this inner divide is inevitable. We experience the same hurt regardless of gender; the only difference is how we choose to heal or not heal. Maybe a weighted blanket with arms that pop out of it for hugs might just be the solution. Now, you see how complex this can get? I am getting a headache just talking about it.

There is no denying that you will get confused at one point or another by the simple fact that most of our choices are not only driven by past wounds, but by unseen influences, which is why it is essential to be aware of yourself and your family history. Who was the biggest jerk in your family line? Did your mom show you how to cook, or did she only show you how to spend money? Did your father make you watch sports against your will? Whoever they are, STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR THEM. But let’s be clear here: I said stop making excuses, not be mean to them. Capisce? This segment is actually very convoluted and complex because there is so much distorted subconscious programming that contributes to the disharmonization of our inner masculine and feminine energy. We can blame the old people all we want, but ultimately, if something does not feel good, the responsibility to fix us is on us. There is no outer compass for this, so I can’t give you a step-by-step guide, but being aware of what the body is saying when relating to the opposite sex, or the same sex for that matter, is very helpful. For example… okay, wait, I am sharing this because I’ve dealt with every kind of distorted masculine energy available to humans, so I have some experiences. Yes. I’ve been a busy love seeker number one. As I was saying, an example: since I’ve integrated both my masculine and feminine energy, my bodily reaction to distorted energy is quite strong. If I meet a man who is operating more in his feminine energy, my masculine energy will automatically take over, and I will notice this inner shift instantaneously, which is why I can revert to my centered state. But if I were unhealed, I would chase this man to the ends of the earth while he runs away. And the sad part about it is, he would let me chase him and bring him flowers. There. That’s the only advice you’ll get from me—you’re on your own now, pal. Whatever you do, please do not get another pet because that pet becomes your emotional sponge, hence the term “emotional support.” Whatever you’re not healing emotionally, the pet receives it, so they get sick and die—and the health insurance community hears—eyes wide with dollar signs. It’s best to heal first, then get a pet; same idea with humans essentially. If you’re not aware of your own emotional trauma, the person next to you suffers. And if both of you suck, then you both suffer. It is as simple as that.

Phew! That was painful. Can we please move on to something more encouraging? The polarity we have been discussing is part of our natural state. With the harmonization of our inner feminine and masculine energy, we are able to understand the external and internal workings of each gender more naturally rather than rely on statistics and logic. A healed feminine energy is more likely to bravely speak for herself without being overly emotional, and exude sensuality at the same time. She will be nurturing and gentle toward her male counterpart. She will guide him to his ascension with her energy. A healed masculine energy is more likely to honor his female counterpart in her femininity without judgment and lead as a man, minus the superiority complex. He will honor her boundaries and standards. He will know how to step into his masculine energy organically to support and protect. Wow. This feels good already. When two integrated souls carrying harmonized feminine and masculine energy come together, it is so freaking sexy because there is this healthy energetic flow between them that requires very little talking due to their innate sensitivity and awareness. Ahhh…peace. This is what the Creator strives for: a coming together of the divine feminine and divine masculine counterparts; it’s no easy task to reharmonize this polarity, so sacrifices have to be made, but when the impossible happens, these two souls can help raise the vibration through the energy they exude. Hail to the emperor and empress!

The Black and White World

Let’s say we are all chocolates covered in a wide variety of wrappings. Some are wrapped in gold, red with gold, a simple brown, and so on. We are a total deliciousness designed and created by the divine to be enjoyed and experienced. Well, that was that—until some chocolate got angry at the other chocolate because the angry chocolate had an awful history with the other chocolate. And this, my friend, was the beginning of humanity's distorted view of our colorful world. Thank you, bitter chocolates, for creating this global divide within humanity. Yes, I know, it is more complex than that, but come on, I thought that was pretty good. I want to share a little secret with you: we are all souls in human bodies. If you unzip your humanity, you will see that your soul is not even Chinese; your human may have been born there, but your soul could potentially be more Irish than the Irish people from Ireland. Ever wonder why you are magically drawn to particular places? For me, I was born in the Philippines, but I am almost certain that I am more European than Asian. I mean, I moved so far away from my country of origin, but it doesn’t mean that I have forgotten the memories of growing up there. Furthermore, I want to live in a castle and eat pasta all day long; how much more European can I be? However, I am here living in Indiana. Confusing. I know. My journey is a little bit more complex, so let’s just leave it at that. Though, I want to give credit to my parents who made the material transition possible, and to my grandmother’s early journey to Hawaii that created the opportunity.

From a human perspective, it is valid to feel slightly off around other humans who do not have the same chocolate wrapping as you. I mean, that’s like a lion trying to befriend a panda; the lens would have to be readjusted somehow, so take it easy on yourself. After all, you were told that there was only one kind of human in the world, right? If you were one of the unfortunate ones who were kept in the dark about the beauty of our colorful world—that’s a pity. But as you evolve, the goal is to open your eyes wider and release the veil so that you can see its beauty for yourself, and for others, perhaps to have enough courage to venture where your soul has been leading you since you were a pudgy little toddler. And trust me, your soul will get you there if you are willing to do the hard work. But that is the thing, though—the hard work; by hard work, I mean the inner work. Many humans have been given opportunities to start over somewhere away from the impoverished place they may have started from. But because they surrender to the scarcity wounds that they carried within them from the place they came from, they choose the easy way out, which truly is the harder way out in the long run. Furthermore, the scarcity mindset weakens self-acceptance, where the desire to be validated by the new environment that may or may not accept the cultural differences falls onto the world. The disappointments that come with not being accepted become suppressed anger and hurt, which creates an even greater inner divide. In the physical, this can manifest as defensiveness and oversensitivity towards direct or indirect racial commentary, which then creates the external divide. To prove they are worthy of taking space in the new environment, the ego overcompensates by collecting wealth, titles, and accolades, but still feels somewhat denied. Some seek the same community with the same mentality in order to feel connected, not allowing the soul to expand. When I first arrived in Texas many years ago, I noticed attention that came with an unspoken prejudice—I mean, I was the only Asian in town at the time, but instead of taking offense to it, I observed and transmuted the negative judgment. And as I said, my soul is more Caucasian; it knows where it belongs, so I allowed it to take space even if the environment was not ready to receive the change that was coming. My soul knew that I needed to overcome this inner divide—and with baby steps, I did. In retrospect, it would’ve been awkward to ask the president of the United States to etch the Philippine flag on the U.S. flag just so I’d feel more welcomed and did not have to face my own fear of breaking the inner barrier—and protested if they didn’t. My ancestors would have probably spanked me, and I would have retaliated by thrusting my tongue in the air.

Many people hold on to resentment, and as long as they carry that fear of being judged for their skin color subconsciously, they will always attract the same judgment. The universe will continue to mirror that fear back until that fear dissolves. Once the inner divide dissolves, the perspective of the world being divided also dissolves because the energetic and emotional attachment to its cultural origin neutralizes. At this point, a silent surrender is embodied with great apathy to the idea of changing other people’s discriminating point of view through violence or loud efforts because their own point of view has transformed to self-acceptance instead: the light within has been realized. It requires great strength to energetically detach from a culture that does not suit the soul without completely denying it. In essence, the old and the new must first learn to coexist internally before the external catches up. In this way of living, the world becomes whole, and the cultural offerings are to be experienced and enjoyed, not to be worn as a badge of honor or an egoic identity. The ancient honoraries have fought the battles and crossed the threshold, and to take credit for what they’ve done without fighting your own inner battle is a little bit embarrassing. You are technically undoing all of their past efforts without even realizing it. Bravo, my friend, bravo! But if you are one of the brave ones who are here to break those ancestral barriers, by all means, grasshopper. The world needs you!

To Acquire or Not to Acquire

We are not at all separated from the material realm or anything in the universe, for that matter, but the divide within the self creates the divide outside of us that makes us want to attach to all things and people in an unhealthy way. It seems counterintuitive, but the truth of the matter is, the more we are separated from the true self, the more we want to hold on to the external, creating a push and pull effect. Another truth: there is nothing wrong with wealth; in fact, it is our birthright to have access to it. However, the severely fragmented, with no spiritual basis whatsoever, take acquisition to a level that is detrimental not only to their mental health, but to the well-being of those around them. Even Machiavelli, the acquisition theorist, went home after a long day of strategizing with the executives to sit in silence and speak with a bunch of dead philosophers. Although I agree with a few of his leadership tactics, such as being “good,” it is simply not enough; I do feel that he had predominantly gone through his career journey driven by his ego, which led to an exhausting chase that ultimately ended his career. There is something to be said about being ruthless in life, but being ruthless without embodied morality and God is a recipe for disaster: idolatry. And ruthlessness is not a malicious act of stepping on anyone standing in its way, but it is speaking of energetic sovereignty: surrender. Acquisition is our birthright, but the spiritual reasoning behind it should be the driving force, not the material wealth alone. It is the embodiment of the spiritual authority (trust) that enables one to place authority over mammona rather than the other way around, to help multiply and steward accordingly. By the way, mammona is not your neighborhood baker who bakes delicious warm bread. Go ahead. Look it up. Acquisitions under the will of the Creator can help balance the equilibrium by creating something that largely benefits soul evolution: less ego-validating efforts and more authentic frequency that creates change from the inside out.

Fragmented souls tend to feel unworthy of acquiring, and they do not feel safe to hold wealth, but want it in their lives. This internal divide between what is possible and the limited self is a dangerous one because the blame typically falls onto the world when the physical desires do not manifest. They see the wealthy through a wounded lens, placing judgment on them without holding the proper information about how they arrive at such acquisitions. I gather some of the world’s wealthiest are complete jerks and solely governed by the spirit of wealth, lacking empathy and morality, but rather than looking within and recognizing the inner divide, they view the world as unfair and feel victimized by this distortion. These individuals grind day and night, and when something massive arrives, it is managed based on a scarcity mindset. It matters not what opportunities are presented to them because they are somehow sabotaged before they even flourish. The lack of self-worth and spiritual authority creates the great divide between the rich and the poor, and the rich and the spiritually rich. On a soul level, no one is poor because the soul is rich and expansive; it is merely a matter of embodying the soul to see its limitless potential. From there, the soul can decide its own definition of wealth. The deeper the descent, the larger the expansion, the grander the vision; and the longer the drought season, the larger the capacity to hold the responsibility associated with the vision, where the formation of a strong spiritual foundation becomes the power of the materialized vision to benefit humanity. But please understand that the power will always belong to the true Creator Himself; forgetting this important detail is a big no-no, so it’s best to continue to tame that ego (God complex) so that the spiritual authority and protection you worked so bloody hard for does not get taken away. Geez. Do you not remember the relentless spiritual attacks that almost put you out before you even got started? The mere thought of this should be reason enough.

Alas, the system we inhabit isn’t really conducive to this encouraging point of view because, as humans, we are categorized by titles, grades, credit scores, and tax brackets, a system that further confirms its construction was developed by divided individuals, handing out cracker crumbs to the Pollies. It is the system that breaks you down first and asks you to build on a faulty foundation. This not only encourages the existing fear within those who are under its spell, but pushes them further to suffer on a mental level by the system’s controlling paws regardless of one’s intention to live freely. With that said, humans are responsible for breaking free from these inflicted mental barriers and overcoming them to overrule the false construct, not to cause physical chaos, but to strategically utilize the system that is available to benefit their own internal and external growth in accordance with their own inner truth, and simply spit out what does not work. As a pledged citizen of our “one Nation, under God, indivisible,” I understand that human order had to be created to survive in a civilized manner, but do we need to apply the same order to the children? It just feels so wrong to go against their nature as imaginative beings. It’s not very Godly, is it? So now, anything that is being offered to the children is a performative distraction to cover the tracks. On a positive note, the inventions created solely from a logical standpoint can be helpful tools. This is the great thing about living in a world of possibilities: so many innovative products are created almost daily, and we are fortunate enough to have them available to us. However, too much of a good thing is not a good thing, as many would say, but whoever utters these words usually does not take them seriously and still indulges anyway—which means, if one is fragmented, the possibility of incorrectly applying these modern tools can be detrimental. The options aren’t the problem; it’s the chooser. An integrated soul does not deny the constant external change; it welcomes it, but it knows how to choose the appropriate tools intelligently; it is not pressured by the externalities as it stands firmly on its sovereign truth. An integrated soul does not create propaganda against material creations; it simply chooses against what does not serve, because any material creation that causes a universal disharmony eventually loses its grip and falls away anyway: bad things usually ruin their own. This is how it’s always been, and this is how it will always be. The question that many should be asking themselves when it comes to acquisitions is: who am I doing it for, and why am I doing it? More importantly, who powers the vision? To acquire so much but lack spirituality, wisdom, and love is merely a heavy weight to carry to the grave, not to mention the eye bags that come with it. I mean, who wants that?

The Possible End to the Divide

The interior architecture of the soul comprises many inner dualities, no matter the vessel: man or woman. These are the core structure of the soul, like the ribs in your chest, or the flying buttresses that are pressed against either side of a beautiful historic architecture; one cannot exist without the other. The way inner dualities become unharmonized is by denying these aspects of ourselves; this happens unconsciously through our human experiences in a heavily illusioned world and through the cultivated inner wounds. The wounds create the gap: thoughts. Thoughts separate us from the subject and ourselves. To heal the wounds is to be free of negative thoughts of the self and others. Selective thoughts mean freedom; freedom is to have the capacity to receive knowledge in resonance with the soul. Knowledge is external, and knowledge is essential. To be separated from knowledge is simply knowledge, not embodiment. Embodied knowledge becomes truth, and truth is what we teach. If truth is aligned with the divine consciousness, then it’s universal. In essence, all must be embodied to become whole: God, beauty, love, truth, nature, morality, duality, abundance, knowledge. Equality is not the same as wholeness. Equality is an external requirement that involves self-sacrifice, validation, enablement, and compromise. The desire for equality that is being asked of the world by every race, every culture, every religion, every age, every gender, every minority, every income level, every emotional outburst, every personal belief based on wounds is the same inequality that lies within each divided individual, screaming to be mended and validated. Wholeness is living in a peaceful acceptance of the self and its entirety, with strong discernment against what is not aligned with its embodied truth, accepting resources for its highest good without attachment.

Funny enough, to become whole, one must first separate the self from all things and people, which seems counterintuitive. The reason for this is that it is almost impossible to find the true self in a vast pool of consciousness. One must walk the path alone in order to separate from the collective unconscious and enter into a journey of self-realization or individuation. In the mystical world, this part can confuse many people and become stuck in a realm of false spirituality because spirituality is intangible and imperfect—a mystery—and again, mystery creates obsession; and obsession is often used to replace trust and faith. This is when facing the shadow aspect of oneself can become overwhelming to the point where holding on to a belief that is not yet in resonance with its truth becomes its saving grace in the journey of the unknown that continues to push one’s limit. On the contrary, there is also this thing called spiritual ego, where after one reaches a high level of spiritual ascension, it creates its own barrier against the low vibrational beings, avoiding further shadow triggers by committing to extreme isolation: a renunciation. In other cases, many women and men fear loneliness and end up in relationships before they have integrated their masculine and feminine energy, or they start a career that is not yet aligned to that higher version of self. This is why we see so many of the same creations that only reach the surface because the creation is congruent with one’s limited ability to delve deep within themselves. To many, this becomes the stopping point of the journey, quitting before the true self emerges in its wholeness, not fully reaching the milestone the soul desires to reach, which is self-actualization. Self-actualization is where one realizes their limitless personal potential, creativity, and talents in complete pursuit of soul fulfillment, not validation. This is where the true visionaries rise to follow through with their gifted vision that emerged from the darkness. It is a silent but grand moment after being refined through the pressure of collapsing old beliefs and many false realities associated with those beliefs, not only from this lifetime, but from the lifetimes that came before. At this point, there is no longer a separation—there is only wholeness to be compassionate, inner strength to continue, and resilience to fight off the naysayers in order to carve a new path for the greater good of humanity.

With love, Maricel

These thoughts, at most times, become independent of any external sources and are developed into a broader idea that may or may not resonate with everyone. Nonetheless, these are messages created and shared to remind humanity of its own ability to transform pain into light. Please only take what resonates with your soul and your journey.
