Ascension 101 ∞The Creators
“Before you can become that which you are ascending into, you may have some experiences that you would rather not have. However, you will find that there is a certain necessity for you to create scenarios for yourselves that will get you in touch with very specific stored emotions. These may not look like the emotions that you are accustomed to feeling. They may have an intensity to them that is unknown to you.
But they will not be just for the sake of your suffering. They will be experiences that you have decided to take on because you wanted to be of service and because you wanted to have a full spectrum of emotions and experiences, so that you would be able to hold a level of compassion for your fellow beings that you have been unable to access up until now.
So you see there are very specific experiences that you simply signed up for in this lifetime, and if you are willing to accept that, and if you are willing to experience whatever comes your way without resistance and without self-judgment, you will feel a cleansing of yourself through the experience. You will know yourselves as lighter beings because you will have let go of the stored traumas that are inactive currently but still running beneath the surface.
We tell you this not to scare you, not to put you on high alert, and not to create within you the expectation that you have a hard road ahead of you. We just want you to understand that when you find yourselves in the midst of a very challenging situation in your lives, and you find yourselves at your knees, crumbling and in a pile on the floor, that you have not done something wrong to put yourself in that place. You are not being punished because you were bad in another lifetime. And you are certainly not being tested by the Almighty.
Instead, you have decided from the broader perspective that you really are that you wanted to show yourselves your strength and you wanted to know yourselves as powerful beings who could take on extreme challenges and know yourselves as the creators of those experiences. Nothing is ever your fault, but everything is your creation. And the sooner you accept your lives as your creations and your emotions as yours to feel, the sooner you can get on to a time when everything that you create will be from your current conscious self, and everything that you feel will be a choice that you make in the moment.
And when you get to that place, you will look back at this time and you will appreciate what it was that you decided to put yourselves through, because having had those experiences you will most certainly be able to choose for your highest good and you will also be much more compassionate to your fellow beings, no matter what it is that they are deciding to create.”
