Simply stated, we ascend by clearing our emotional blocks, integrating the fears that are the basis of those blocks, and transmuting the anger, hatred, guilt, blame and shame in those blocks into compassion. In each of our emotional blocks there is judgment of the dark emotions (those already stated above). As we learn to accept, value and use those emotions in a balanced manner, we balance the Dark side of ourselves.

On the outside, as we learn to value and appreciate those who express those dark emotions in their roles as our teachers (i.e., those who play dark roles because they have spiritual contracts with us to do so), we balance the Light and Dark in our reality.

As we clear our blocks we shift our consciousness. We become less judgmental, thus more compassionate. So our consciousness shifts first and our physical body follows suit. Thirdly, our external reality begins to reflect back the new consciousness that we are expressing. Thus, the physical reality slowly shifts also. So every day, as we allow our guides to bring our lessons forward so that we can clear them, we are ascending. Each time we clear a block and experience the joy of gratitude and appreciation and compassion, we are ascending. Let’s recap this one. Ascension occurs when you:

1. Are willing to clear your blocks.

2. Clear a block, integrate a fear by experiencing it and achieve compassion, thus creating a shift in your consciousness.

What are the mechanics of ascension?

Ascension is a process that has spiritual, emotional, mental and physical components. This process is multi-layered and interconnected, meaning that an action taken on one level affects the other levels (think of it as a domino effect). The mechanics of the ascension process go something like this:

1. You ask for your fears to be made known to you.

2. A fear manifests in your life packaged as a lesson that has come forward.

3. You move through the fear, being willing to experience it as completely as necessary in order to integrate it.

4. You integrate the fear, thus learning the lesson. In this part you feel the fear feelings associated with this fear/lesson. They can be feelings such as guilt, shame, hatred, anger, resentment, etc. (Yes, we do fear feeling these emotions because we have been taught that they are bad and if we experience them, we are bad.)

5. You experience release as the fear is integrated and the lesson is learned. In this release you experience emotions such as joy, bliss, gratitude (for the person who played the Dark role) and compassion (for the pain the Dark role person had to experience in order to play their part). As you feel the compassion, there is a tingling sensation in your body and in many cases an orgasmic explosion of energy in your high heart chakra (this is the anger, shame, etc., being transmuted into compassion) as you release the people involved in your lesson from blame.

6. The compassion you feel transmutes a bit more of your DNA from carbon-based to crystal or silica-based, thus allowing more light into your body. At the same time, any implants (also known as behavior patterns) associated with that fear/lesson are changed (balanced). If you have been working on this fear in all its various aspects for a while, those newly changed implants then release their bit of your dormant 10 strands of your DNA so that they can be realigned.

The more we move through these steps, the more we recode our DNA, this shifting our consciousness closer and closer to the integration point between Light and Dark. Compassion is the unconditional and equal acceptance of all things (Light and Dark) regardless of who or what they are. Now let’s look at some of the misconceptions about ascension.

Misconceptions of Ascension

There are many misconceptions about ascension going around these days. Most of this seems to come from a lack of basic information and trying to formulate our concept of ascension on what we have been taught in the past. Once we are given the higher perspective regarding some of these concepts we can see where just having another level of knowledge makes it all make sense. Let’s look a few of the more prevalent ones.

We can ascend without experiencing pain or fear.

As I said earlier, I wish this was true but as we have seen from the information above, we must have something that we can use to achieve compassion. We must have some form of fuel. We don’t transmute love or joy into compassion, do we? Both love and joy are higher frequency emotions, like compassion, aren’t they? It is my understanding that we use the energy of the lower frequency emotions of anger, shame, guilt, resentment, etc. to transmute into compassion. So, if this is true, then we must be able to access these emotions to be able to transmute them, right? And in order to access them we must feel them in some way because that is what is meant by accessing, is that not true? And isn’t experiencing them the same as feeling them?

Going further, don’t lower frequency emotions create emotional and, sometimes, physical pain? For example, doesn’t anger create emotional pain, or guilt or shame? So to wrap this up, if we need transmutable emotions for fuel to ascend, then we must access them. This means feeling the pain of those emotions, and if we feel the pain of our emotions, then I suppose that means that we don’t ascend without experiencing pain. Does that make sense? And keep in mind that pain is a catalyst for change. We don’t change until we realize that we need to…pain is the indicator that it is time for change. From the higher perspective, as I understand it, pain is a most valuable tool because without it we have no catalyst to move us to do the work that is necessary in order to grow spiritually.

We can recode our DNA just through intent or by having someone else do it for us.

Well, think about this. If you are doing emotional clearing and that changes your DNA, isn’t that the same as DNA Recoding? And, if you need fuel (fears and lower frequency emotions) to transmute into compassion to recode your DNA…and to experience that whole process of transmutation for it to work then how can you do it merely by intent? Also, how can someone else do that for you? How can they experience your fears, integrate them and learn your lessons for you? I don’t see how they can. It would be the same as having someone else live your life for you while you sit on the sidelines and observe. But if they could, I would certainly be the first in line! I don’t want to experience any more pain and discomfort than I have to.

Through the ascension process we will gain the ability to bi-locate, levitate and move objects with our minds.

It was a real letdown for me when I found out that these abilities were not part of Earth’s planetary ascension process and plan. I so wanted to learn how to do them and found that in the beginning they were one of the reasons I kept going. But on the other hand, we are not required to attain them in order to ascend and that is a big relief! Think of how much time and energy it would take to be able to acquire these abilities. This is mystery school stuff that takes years to master. So, no, these abilities are not part of the ascension process. The abilities that are required are:

1. The ability to achieve compassion by transmuting emotional blocks

2. The ability to value the Dark in all ways

3. The ability to live in harmony with all other species in the universe regardless of differences

When we ascend we will be on a different planet.

Actually in one sense it will be like being on a different planet, but in reality we will be on a different plane of this one. Just as radio stations exist on different frequencies but you can still access them from the same radio, 3D, 4D and 5D will be different dimensions/frequencies/states of consciousness that can be accessed on the same planet, Earth. At least that is my understanding at this time.

When we ascend we will live to total unity and oneness… there will be no Dark or negativity…it will be all love and light.

Whoa! Won’t people be surprised when they see that there is still Light and Dark in 5D? Once again, as I understand it, we will have a more united society but not at the expense of individuality. Having only Light/Unity means, in it’s extreme, a hive mentality like bees or ants. Do we really want that? As I understand it, we want to live in the knowing that we are all connected so that we can stop all the warring and fighting that is caused by “we are separate” thinking. But we don’t want to give up our individuality and free will to become part of a unity consciousness where everyone thinks the same, do we? Well if that is the case, count me out. I like having free will and free thinking.

As we ascend we will be able to physically see and hear our guides.

Perhaps further down the road in the ascension process this will occur as 4D and 5D become stronger but for now it is through the inner eye and the inner ear that we see and hear our guides. There are those who already do see and hear with their 3D eyes and ears but that is not because of DNA Recoding or ascension, I am told. It is because they were born with endocrine glands fully functioning as part of their earth mission.

As we ascend we should leave our 3D lives behind and move into the Light.

Well, that’s also not part of the plan this time. As I understand it, we are to live in the world and be part of it but live in it with a multidimensional consciousness. This was a difficult one for me to figure out. At the beginning of my path, I wanted to separate from the world, go live in a closed community of like-minded people, give up my credit cards and bank accounts and live on love. I soon found out, just by doing part of that, that it didn’t work. We are to stay grounded and in the world because the world is the place from where our lessons will come. It is the place where we can access our fears and integrate them, access our lower frequency emotions and transmute them within our 3D physical bodies.

If we separate from the world and spend our time hanging out in other dimensions or the Astral plane, we will lose out on the experiences that cause us to grow. Remember, without the lessons coming forward, we cannot spiritually grow. We grow out of imbalance into balance. If we try to live in a perfect world, we become spiritually stagnant, don’t we? Think about it.

How can I tell if I am ascending?

You have mentally made the decision to go through the ascension process. This is different than being on the spiritual path. Ascension is a choice to move to the 5 th dimension. The spiritual path is a choice to open up to what is beyond 3D and to access your spiritual side.

Your fears are manifesting in your life as lessons Your physical body begins to react to the ascension process through new aches and pains. This is your inner child being triggered by the fears coming up to be integrated. These fears are stored in your physical body in different locations. Example: A fear of money is stored in your lower back and you experience that fear as lower back pain. You begin to be consciously aware of the synchronicities and unusual occurrences in your life versus being unaware of them. (Synchronicities are your guides and your work bringing forth the events on your Life Blueprint that you had chosen during your time in the Interlife, the life between lives.)

What do we mean when we say that the 3rd, 4th, and 5th dimensions are merging?

This is an interesting tidbit that I couldn’t resist sharing with you. As many of you know, there is a lot of talk about the dimensions merging, and the physical/mental/emotional effects we are experiencing because of it.
