Reclaiming lost innocense


           Over the course of my life, few things have remained constant or true. I was never main stream or “normal”. I barely even know what that is. Instead, I live in an ocean of constantly churning energetic change. That’s the unfortunate part of being so connected to source. I feel its energy everywhere. It’s unending. Independent points of chaos swarm within crowds. It feels like walking into an operatic collection of voices that are in no way singing in the same key. Disturbing vibes abound.

            One thing that has never changed is the understanding that I am not alone. From imagined playmates (as a child) to real ones as an adult; this fact has never deviated. I’ve had moments of profound isolation like everyone does. The difference revolves to a point of insight. For whatever reason, I seem to have a unique connection to the world beyond “life”. The dead don’t talk in words, so it’s hard to explain. Instead, I mostly feel answers through emotions and a strange inner knowing. In meditation, I catch glimpses of what life is like within the light. People who’ve crossed become friendly points of routine focus. It’s really quite bizarre (my normal).

            When I talk to my dead people, it’s not a two way communication. It’s more like connections with an operator who relays info from a second party’s line. I can see through the “light” but there’s no audio. My guides act as a conduit instead. I meet with my team of guides in meditative moments. They meet with the person I’m trying to contact. A translated dialog follows. The dead can hear me just fine. I hear my guide’s relayed words. Answers flow from this process.

            As a child, I thought this was normal. I fully believed that life was everywhere (even apologizing to gravel for kicking it). The force created in dislodging those tiny stones was felt deep within to be alive (same as me). It just seemed right to ask forgiveness. When weeds were pulled and grass was cut, I hid. It felt violent. I had no idea this wasn’t normal. Of course, I also thought the entire world was catholic because no one told me differently. No one told me much of anything really. I just assumed a lot.

            Without much guidance from parents, I got my truths from within. My outer world was full of abuse and neglect. The inner one was far more magical. I don’t know when I first learned to astral project, but I did it a lot as a child. Outside my body, I didn’t feel so thrashed from other people’s energy. It just seemed safer to detach. Once again, this was perceived as normal and continued until someone told me differently. I’ve spent a good deal of my adult life trying to recapture that past bit of normality and reclaim the magic I lost to conforming ideals.

            I’m writing this blog as a personal effort to understand the premise of that lost innocence. My guides have told me so much more than even I have dared to dream. I want other people to understand that mine is not a unique experience. I believe we all began life with that same perceived magic. Mine just took longer to chase away. On some level, I fully believe we are all pining to chasing down those lost moments that lead us back to the source we embraced as toddlers. The ego is all about fighting to claim material goods and services. The outside world prizes status and fame. I’m pretty sure that’s not why we’re here. The one thing I’m certain of is that the real goal is within and waiting patiently for the chaos to dim. You only need to understand the influence of the past energies swirling about you and forgive yourself for letting them dictate so much. Experiencing that lost magic boils down to the belief that it was ever real.
