I am glad you have the courage to say it. I wonder how many people really understand what you are saying in spite of saying that they do. I find more often than not people around me to be energy vampires. I also find that if I don't speak to them they usually don't speak to me, cool. I am really glad you did this topic it helped me to rerecognize a thing that I had forgotten that I knew, thank you.
For me there have been two levels of separation from "lower" energies, one conscious, a one initiated by source/my guidance. Years ago I certainly started to distant myself from certain environments that where not a vibrational match, but in the past couple of years it felt almost pre-destined, as in you wanted to follow a higher path, so you will be isolated until you have the energetic strength to be "released back into the wild".
Nicely expressed!!! Thank you! 🙏 I went through a period for the last few months where I really had to lay low. I also came to realize that not everything should be displayed publicly if you know what I mean. Some things need to be honored and protected. Between us and Spirit. Not everything should be said just because we can. There's a tendency for people to rush to social media with everything. No thanks.
I definitely needed to hear this today. I've been sort of pushing myself to be more social this year because I 100% am able to isolate for years with no big issue. Covid quarantine was heaven for me. Not saying I'm an 'advanced' seeker at all, I definitely think I'd be in that middle layer of the pyramid, but yeah... I'm getting there. Unfortunately it can be lonely. Especially when you desperately want a friend that you can just... go on mental explorations with. Sometimes I want to just ponder the universe with a companion, but often people aren't interested, or if they are they're either reeeeally into conspiracies or sci-fi fantasies or they aren't sober. Its a strange place to occupy being somebody into spirituality and the esoteric but still staying relatively grounded. I'll say it again... it can get lonely. I make up for it by seeking things like this youtube channel...
It is possible to attract an appropriate partner. Maybe I should talk about that? I don't like to hear about nice and good people being lonely. It bothers me.
As an introvert who spent most of my childhood among books and with a few elderly neighbors who indulged my love of cats, stories, gardening, etc but has struggled as I've gotten older I definitely empathize. Also got called an old soul a lot and while it was said as a compliment, in some ways it made me feel like I was supposed to maintain a certain way of being much like when I once got scolded in kindergarten for checking out picture books instead of novels lol at some point I also started using solitude and spirituality itself as a way to spiritually/emotionally bypass working through trauma and tension, especially because when I did form a friendship I had little to no boundaries when it came to being available or willing to help I have come to think of one of my personal goals/challenges for spiritual growth as an invitation to find the balance of my natural tendency and ability to optimize solitude with developing more connections and being proactive about fostering community and fellowship. Also to allow myself to feel and pursue the joy that my child self found in those pictures books or in "normal" kid stuff just as much as I found it in reading about other people and places both real and in fantasy. It's a bit extra challenging right now as I'm in my early 30s and most of my peers have their own social groups and for those who are older or younger it's hard to meet new people in general but remaining open to it and curious seems to be half the challenge.
@@AquarianDiary I always appreciate your view on things and will always listen to what you have to say. I'm attempting to do things to get myself out of the comfort zone and find somebody, I think right now it might be just the need to come out of my hermetic cave so the right people even have the chance to find me. 😅
Thanks for this video. I require alone time and once again, have been allowing myself to be drawn into uncomfortable things. I have been alone since Monday and am feeling better but others tug at me to fit in. I thought it was just my high IQ but realize it's more along the lines you discussed. I'm hoping a move to a better (quieter) environment will come soon.. Your video felt like a pat on the back. Thank you!
So true. For the record, the place where I have caused myself alot of pain and anger in the past, is when I expected people to be or chose better than what they are capable of at that time. Hindsight, if one dares to look it will show you a version of yourself, included. I say the "past", but the challenge continues with less frequency. I am learning..... and practicing sitting the the "I still know nothing chair." It has taken me a while, but I am beginning to understand the magnitude of what this planet can hold, express, and dish out in terms of spiritual lessons. How fortunate you are to have met even 1 enlightened being. Most of us would not recognize one if we saw one.......bumped into one, stepped on one, or walked by one holding a cup out to us. How do we "measure" such a thing when.......we can only see as far as we can see. As an example our ability to measure “parts per million” has increased dramatically over the past 50 years. Is this a fair example? I am not sure, but imagine the person who we consider enlightened (if they are walking around) still cuts wood and carries water 😊 Regarding taking care of our energy and such, I am in Hermit mode and have been for a while. Would this communication be considered Hermit mode? I have entertained no one for quite some time. In a couple weeks I will be looking after the neighbors dog in my home for a week and a half. I like her, she likes me. I'll start with 4 legs and see how it goes before I decide to move on to 2. Thank you for the thought provoking 11 minutes. Peace and be well. 💜
Pets are great company! So innocent. I don't know Marian. Seems like the options get fewer the further we go. Not sure what else to say about that lol! A Spiritual teacher of mine once said: "Christ could be standing next to most people and they wouldn't even know it." Seems apt to share that here. Great comment, thank you for sharing it!!! ♥
@@AquarianDiary LOL...Thank you! I want you to know I appreciate you taking time, your time, to respond to my posts. They are usually lengthy. I am certain others feel the same way about you and theirs. The fireworks have just started. Have a great week. 🙏
Not sure if you included "self-evident" intentionally but appreciated it, especially as I just did my regular reading of the Declaration 😊 appreciate the well wishes for us 🇺🇸 Will soon be booking a reading with you. Transits and aspects (both natal and current) from Pluto, Saturn, my moon, etc are really causing some...excitement is the best word 😆 a look from someone who both shares many of my values/views on astrology & metaphysics as well as understands the dynamics of Libra and Sagittarius in a way that i don't see from many other astrologers would be super helpful and appreciated Such an intense time individually and collectively!
It has been a real pleasure and honor to read for many truly fascinating and inspiring people from around the word. Not doubt you would be one such person yourself as well. I look forward to hearing from you and thank you very much! 🙏
Enlightenment is a way of understanding something / by experiencing something. Knowing something exists by means of experience only. If you don't experience it, I personally think you will never believe it.
I agree but trying to define or describe enlightenment in human language or words alone is almost, if not completely, impossible. So yes it's an experience, one that can only be experienced. It cannot be explained or understood by those who have not experienced it. It's simply not possible. Thank you for commenting! I really appreciate and respect the qualities of your readings. Your sincerity, authenticity and high ethics shine through! Sorry for not responding last night. I haven't slept well the last two nights. Energetic disruptions or interference.

Aww, I’m with you here. It’s a very strange place to occupy at times. Rewarding and authentic, but strange and lonely for sure… ❤️
