[Mystory] My awakening in this lifetime.

Hugs, everyone. Reposting what I shared about mystory in response to our brother 777's question in one of the forums. I've added or modified the bits in indigo to reflect new insights I've recently had about my mission. Will post other blogs about mystory in the course of the next few days as I continue to understand why I'm here.

Had my first awakening through this wonderful "dream" of being visited by beings of beautiful Light in their ship when I was 7 years old. They came to explain that I was not of this earth, and they gave me a choice to remain or to go home. I knew I had a job to do here, though, so I chose to stay. As a birthday treat for my 7th human year, they let me fly in the air with them, surveying the little valley where I lived before returning me to my bed. I still vaguely remember the feeling of the ground giving way to empty air beneath me and the soaring feeling in my heart as I flew. What joy that was!

Around that age, I also found myself communicating with nature. I had probably inadvertently opened my chakras once to converse with the earth one day--I was sitting in our guava tree when I looked up into the sky and began to sense its vastness, and feeling a similar vastness beneath me. I became dizzy and felt so small and so huge at the same time. Being a little girl, I cried to feel so alone and yet so important and connected to earth and sky.

I had many beautiful moments like these in solitude when I was younger, which made me feel very different from my peers, and then came adolescence, and it felt like I went crazy, more alone, more misunderstood.

I, too, was brought up as a Catholic. Stayed out of organized religion for a long time, though, after learning of the faery and magical realms. Read Wiccan books off and on, though I practiced divination skills and candle magic through the years, too. Have always been in touch with this inner knowing, though, and sensitivity to spirit, especially talking to trees.

On my 30th birthday, reached a turning point and went looking for my mission. Manifested a variety of painful but very instructive experiences that turned out to have been unblocking my chakras (the lower 3 all last year, in fact). It was only this year that everything finally fell into place. The bond between me and Spirit grew stronger after my 3rd Kundalini Reiki attunement in March and my Inner Child and I got closer.

Now I embrace Wicca and Oriental medicine as a way of integrating needed energies into my earthly system. I realized I was being called to my own full healing only in July and am now manifesting the formal training I would like to receive in order to fulfill my mission of becoming my best, whole self.

Hurrah for the beautiful journeys we have chosen in which we've learned to return to Love and Light.
