When you Google ‘awakening’ you are
quickly taken down the rabbit hole of signs and symptoms, spiritual
ideology and karmic teachings. Topics covering everything from the bible
to quantum mechanics come up. What does awakening really mean?
The word ‘awakening’ is contentious. To
some, it represents a language of separation perceived in spiritualism.
Awake infers asleep. Awake as a term, infers ego, and assumes
superiority. This is misleading. There is no judgement. There is only
frequencies, the rate at which our cells are vibrating. An organic
process of evolution that everyone and everything is experiencing — at
their own pace.
A popular image comes to mind, when Ray
and Winston are talking about religion, in the original Ghostbusters
movie, white ethereal ghostly figures rise into the night sky around
them… judgement day. This is the mainstream media machine —
this is not what awakening is. There is no judgement, only individuals
on their own karmic path. This imagery also infers separation,
polarisation. The good rise to the heavens. So what happens to the bad?
Twisted through the lens of the
Abrahamic religions and the mainstream media, language like awakening
and ascension has over time become contextualised as judgement. But
in true awakening, there is no judgement, only an organic process of
evolution that happens on a cellular level, quantum vibrations leading
to dimensional frequency alignment.
It’s all about frequencies, the
frequency the cells in your body are vibrating at. From the tiniest
particles, quarks, the vibration passes from cell to cell, rolling out
through our system, microcosm to macrocosm. Connecting to the
frequencies around us. This determines our perception of reality through
manifestation. Planet Earth has been in the third dimension for a long
tIme, this is a denser frequency weighed down by greed, fear, and anger.
Humanity has lost its moral compass, as a species a profound
disconnection to the frequency of love, which is the frequency of nature
has caused destruction on a micro (individual) and macro (planetary)
level. This is all changing. And 2016 is an accelerated year for these
vibrational frequencies changing.
Gaia, planet Earth, is also ascending.
She, too, is a vibrational, organic being. Her time has come. This is a
rare celestial event and has drawn quite a crowd; it is rumoured every
soul that has ever existed on planet Earth is here to ride the vast
karmic wave of release. Our skies are buzzing with activity. This is
because the planet, Gaia, is accelerating her vibrational frequency.
Huge cosmic shifts of energy have been flowing through Gaia for some
years now, propelling her to higher dimensions.
The time is now.
As predicted by many others, the Mayan
belief that 2012 marked the kickstart of the Awakening. The media had us
expecting planes falling out the sky. Not so. Neither do we expect to
see ghostly figures rising to the heavens. This is way more convoluted
than that. We are deep in it, all of us, right now, many of us unable to
name it but know there’s something we can’t quite put our finger on,
something hovering just out of sight, something’s not right. But as with
all polarised thinking, this is not about what is right or wrong, this
is about the same and changed, with no fear attached. A spectrum of
frequencies, multi dimensions, infinite moments and choices. Connected.
Our emotions determine our state
of being which determines, through manifestation, our reality. We take
responsibility for what we allow into our space.
Our frequency is almost entirely
directed by our thought processes, in turn affecting our emotional
responses which dictate the vibration of our beings at a cellular level.
If we are calm our vibrational frequency will be higher. When we feel
anger, pain, fear, jealousy our vibrations lower. these emotions are
dense, the thought processes causing synaptic firing is anxious,
erratic, intense and lowers our vibration. Depression and despair are
often experienced at the beginning of the awakening process. This has to
be shed like a snake sheds its skin, releasing old, stuck emotions.
By letting go of these heavy vibrations
we literally ‘lighten the load’. We have been in an intense period of
karmic release, a global purge, accelerating through 2015 into 2016.
Politically the veils are being lifted, dirty laundry needing aired. On
an individual level we have been releasing old traumas, stuck energy,
played out through our relationships.
The calmer and more content we are, the
higher our frequency the more connected we are to the multi verse. The
planet, the universe, the world and all life therein are connected by
frequencies. Different dimensions, if you like, exist on different
frequencies. When we raise our frequency we connect to higher
dimensions. In these higher dimensions, because there is less density,
less or no lower vibrations, we are able to manifest, uncluttered by
fear, anxiety or anger.
Manifestation means our reality reflects our state of being.
When we are transitioning we can
experience dimensional slippage, moving from one to the other, this is
happening daily for mechanics is oneness. As we shed these
layers of negative programming, lower density emotional energy, we align
and connect. Buckle up people, the ride is going to be bumpy. As long
as we live, see and feel harmonisation, this is what we will get. It’s
all about peace and love maaaaan!
How do I know if it’s happening to me?
Symptoms of awakening include:
- heaviness in your limbs, low energy
- fluctuations in appetite
- blurry vision
- disrupted sleep and/or sleep patterns
- feelings of disconnection, spaciness (poor short term memory)
- awareness of speeding up of time
- lack of focus and/or bouts of intense focus
- sensitivity to temperature
- skin irritations or unusual allergies
- engaging, feeling, empathising more with the world around you
- changes in your friendship and family relationships
- changes in food and drink intake
- vivid dreams
- synchronicity
- numbers – seeing sequences of numbers everywhere
- being drawn to creative hobbies, loss of ambition, remembering passions from childhood, wanting to create
- feeling drawn to nature
- being drawn to meditation, yoga, healing therapies.
If some of these symptoms resonate with
you then it’s likely you have begun or are some way to raising your
frequencies, awakening. As waves of cosmic light flow into our galaxy,
in and through Gaia, she and us are being propelled to higher
dimensions. This is not an ordinary time.
The karmic polarisation of humanity,
largely caused by the ruling elite cabal, has held humanity back from
its natural cycle of evolution. A soul cannot grow and evolve if in each
lifetime it is oppressed. The human karmic wheel on this planet has
been like a hamster wheel, going round and round, trapped, unable to
organically progress.
Globally we are being supported through this chaotic, confusing, crazy time, as individuals we are also being guided through this process. There is a lot of love out there for this bright jewel in the Milky Way galaxy and her trapped, upset, passionate, creative, graceful and humble passengers.
Body aches, over sleeping, under sleeping, over eating, under eating. The body is responding to a rise in frequency, it’s bound to ache a bit. Pain is grounding, we are pulled back into the body, held by it, this makes for a safer transition and lessens the chance of total disconnection from the body and the matrix. Many people also experience popping and low buzzing in one or both ears, as the frequencies change.
Some dizziness and nausea, changes in tolerance to food and drink, can be very obvious symptoms. We may quite suddenly go off foods we used to love, many people stop eating or cut down their consumption of meat, milk and processed foods. Avoiding synthetic food, preservatives and GMO food; dense, plastic food weighs heavy on our vibrations, lighten your load with food you recognise as having come from Gaia.
This is about aspiration. The
body-mind-soul system responds quickly to these changes and, helpfully,
our tolerance to these fake food and drinks drops quickly and we simply can’t eat them anymore, without suffering tummy aches and discomfort.
Depression and despair can also be
experienced at the beginning of the awakening process, manifesting as a
feeling that ignorance is bliss. Described as Shadow
Work, like a snake shedding its skin, the phoenix rising from the
flames, the Tower card in tarot, we need to shed those lower
frequencies, these stuck, emotionally charged energies will need to be
released.
Synchronicity,
especially in threes, for example the same subject being mentioned to
you from three different sources over a short space of time. Symbols
reappearing, words being repeated. When you say ‘beautiful’ the guy on
the tv says it at the same time. Synchronicity is a wonderful part of
the waking up process, it is the start of feeling connected, an integral
part of the universe.
Recognizing number sequences are also a clear sign of awakening. There is no shortage of reading material on the significance of 11:11.
Angel numbers, symbolic sequences, it’s all about numbers. Tom Daly
winning the bronze at the Olympics, Rio 2016, with a score of 444.4 was a
wake up upgrade code, for the millions of people watching. The universe
is mysterious in her ways, numbers are a language we all speak.
Animals, fish and birds are also part of
this universal language. Seeing a grasshopper three times in a short
space of time (when you don’t usually see them) can signify a ‘leap of
faith’ is required, maybe with a job or relationship.
The key to recognising symptoms and messages of guidance as we navigate this awakening process is that the signs will be unusual. The
universe is speaking to you directly, communicating with you. It’s
hugely reassuring and can be thrilling and funny. This is the beginning
of Oneness, of understanding everything is connected by a flow, an
energetic groove through space time, it’s the awareness of quantum —
nothing is 2D or 3D, it’s multiple D!
We should seek balance with our body,
mind and soul. Easy if you’re a monk on a Tibetan hillside (we would all
be levitating by now!), but down here on planet earth, ground zero it
is hard. Polarisation of our world, speeding up of time, destruction,
rape, fear, war, injustice, poverty, racism… shall I go on? So if you
reach for those Oreos, pass on that early morning swim, collapse in
front of a glass of wine don’t beat yourself up! This is the matrix, the
third dimension and we are here through choice, destiny, it is our soul
purpose to be here, so we ride these waves as well we can, accepting
imperfection as natural and organic whilst aspiring to a higher
vibrational way of life.
What do I do about it?
As our systems adjust to these higher
frequencies we are literally becoming lighter. To make this transition,
this shift in consciousness, our mind-body-soul upgrade needs to shake
off denser lower frequencies. The key to raising our cellular
frequencies and not getting ill, checking out or giving up is to seek
balance between the Mind, Body and Soul.
Talk therapy, holistic therapies like
cranial sacral therapy, neural realignment therapy, meditation, shamanic
healing, past life or QHHT hypnotherapy can help balance our mind body
soul. Meeting other people who are also feeling confused or seeking
deeper spiritual practise is a great way to navigate the trickier
aspects to awakening.
The following are also helpful:
Water is very cleansing,
whether its a cool shower, a warm bath or a swim all can help clear our
ethereal bodies of unwanted stuck energy. Gong or sound baths raise our
frequencies, help us release blockages.
Crying, as hard as it is, is very good for us.
We can trigger emotional release, watching a sad film, listening to a
moving piece of music, looking through old photo albums… each time we
sit in an uncomfortable emotion (shame, guilt, grief, pain, hurt,
sadness) we are essentially lancing that bubble of pain. Feeling it,
looking it in the eye, allowing it, WILL release it. When it’s over, it
will be gone, dissipated as energy into the universe. This is a very
hard process. The only thing I ever read about Shadow Work that has
helped me has been to repeat three words over and over: “This will pass”. And it always does.
Seek stillness in nature:
Step into nature as often as possible. Walk through the park rather
then up the High St, even if its a longer route. Nature helps us to be
more mindful, engaging all our senses in the present. Nature realigns
us, like plugging a phone into a charger, the mind-body-spirit frequency
is cleared and powered up.
Reiki, spiritual kundilini or breathwork
yoga, acupuncture, herbal remedies, hiking, colouring in, spending time
engaging with children. All holistic therapies can help calm and
nourish our fragile egos and open our hearts to a more heart led
existence. Energy work like reiki can shift blockages, reduce stress and
lighten the (emotional) load. Meditation will still the ego, open the
heart and encourage the flow of energies through our ethereal bodies, as
Gaia shifts.
Learn about the Chakras: What
they are, what they do, and how to maintain them is hugely beneficial
to understanding this awakening process. Many yoga, meditation and
breathwork classes will teach you about chakras, as will research. They
are essentially the ‘power points’ of our systems. The portals that draw
energy in and release energy. The more you know the more you can look
after them the calmer and more connected you will be as a mind-body-soul
being.
Be with tribal soul mates whenever possible (you know… the one’s who make you feel good about yourself): Avoid drama — other people’s control dramas,
global political dramas and your own ego’s dramas. Drama drains energy,
literally. Avoid the mainstream media in all its guises, reading,
watching and listening to hate, fear and fascism will program you to
feel and display these emotions. Value your space, protect it, filter
closely what or who you allow in. If you cannot avoid any of the above
then take measures to protect yourself, crystals, meditations and
mantras are good for this as is asking for protection from our guides.
Rebalance yourself after exposure using water, crystals, meditation,
sound baths, holistic therapies, seeking rest and stillness and
realignment.
It is about aspiration and free will. We
can change anything anytime: The way to raise the vibrational frequency
of those teeny tiny quarks (smallest particles in our bodies) is to
transmute all energy, all emotion through the heart chakra. Like a
washing machine, if we put all those low vibrations, fear and greed into
the wash, our heart will clean it, the dirt comes out, released. The
heart is compassion, kindness, humility and love. Higher frequencies are
higher for a reason. This is about aspiration to love, to release fear.
When we shake off those denser, stickier, darker emotional energies we
allow space for gentler, calmer vibrations to flow. This in turn
connects us to those frequencies around us of similar nature. Love is
the cosmic energetic flow, the ‘dark matter’, the language of the
multiverse. Let it flow!

experience the present and the past and future will learn their place.
Believe in a peaceful future on Gaia and it will happen. And when the
shadow work gets to much reach out for help, there are many, many
avenues available. Hug a tree!
About the author:
Morag O’Brien: By
my teens I was researching anything that was out of the ordinary UFO,
parapsychology, ancient cultures, conspiracies. I understood the world
was being ‘run’ by a small group of men. I have a karmic view of the
world paralleled with a deep cynicism about who or what is running the
world.
I graduated with an MA in English and
Politics, with sociology, film and TV studies, psychology and
philosophy, from Glasgow University, then lived and worked in Melbourne
and spent time in Byron Bay and Sydney. I came home to do an MSc in
business marketing management at Strathclyde Business School, graduated,
but realised quickly this was not a good career for me. I graduated the
following year with a PGCE in English teaching and moved to London
where I taught English and was a Head of Year in a large comprehensive
high school for 15 years.
I left teaching after my second daughter
was born and have been a stay at home mum for three years. During this
time I have run guided meditation groups and done several pop up Healing
events in London. I have been reading tarot for over 25 years and now
read Starseed Sirius Tarot Cards by Patricia Cori. I also see clients in
my home or on skype for psychic tarot readings, reiki and crystal
healing. I have a psychic mentor in the United States and regularly
collaborate with a local group Cosmic Connections at healing festivals
in East London.
