You may or may not have heard about “Lemuria”. More than likely, you are more familiar with the place once called, “Atlantis” which was an ancient city where the people had a luxurious and convenient lifestyle. Both Atlantis and Lemuria were continents that were engulfed by the Indian Ocean between one and nine million years ago. These places are founded on many a myth or legend. Why do we feel so connected to This place that society will have you believe does not exist? And what was so different about their society, and the norms they lived by, from ours?

My Experience As A Lemurian

Of the many lives I have experienced, my main earthly existence was based in Atlantis. I’ve had more lives there than I have after civilization changed to what we know it as now. Before that, I was brought into Lemuria as a sort of anchoring point into Atlantis to catch a glimpse of the direction that Atlantis could go. I say this because I knew full well in-between my lives that I’d be participating in the experience of Atlantis moving forward. With the concept in mind that it would be a destructive experience for civilization. There were highs and lows – amazing things happening. But, the endpoint was inevitable.

I ended up leaving that life due to the flooding which was one of the many things that led to the collapse of that society. The part of the experiences in those lives before in Lemuria paved the way to serve a glimpse of what Atlantis could be. The sort of purity that could be within Atlantis and future humanity, to allow it to potentially go to different timelines to have a different endpoint – being that there were two different directions that Atlantis could’ve gone.

How Was the Lemurian Society Different to Ours?

In modern days we live according to our egos. We are so concerned with the opinions of others that we forget our true selves. We tend to live unauthentically all the while pleasing others and entertaining this idea they have of us.  It’s the exact opposite of what it was back in Lemuria. With these sorts of free-flowing concepts and acceptance, they had a where each individual was accepted to express themselves in whatever way.  Imagine the world if we went through life accepting people without the intention to change them, or judge them. If We could completely accept and allow them to pursue their life in every way that they want. Their differences were engaged and welcomed, and there was love, harmony, and nourishment –  instead of defense.

These are the parallelisms between Lemurian culture and our culture. If you look at the way money is being spent, especially in the United States, a huge chunk is going towards defense and nuclear weapons and all these sorts of things. But, you can imagine if all that money shifted into the well-being of the world, and the well-being of the body, and the nurturing of the individuals? That is the possibility of the kind of world we can develop instead of a world that has to defend its territory. We could all work together, and support one another – as the Lemurians did.

The Lemurians Connection to Animals

Lemurians also had a relationship with animals which is only dreamed of in most of our modern culture. In Lemurian society, they didn’t feel that they were above any creature, not even an ant. And there was this beautiful homeostasis between the baseline of how these Lemurians also had a relationship with animals which is only dreamed of in most of our modern culture. In Lemurian society, they didn’t feel that they were above any creature, not even an ant. And there was this beautiful homeostasis between the baseline of how these beings intersect on Earth. The good news is that,  as we progress further towards the 5D reality, we are learning and how to become a more aware and communal society.

How Did Lemurians Perceive People?

If I think of my QHHT sessions of my experience as a Lemurian, In that time, the body that I had could feel ahead and when I looked at others, there was a little bit of resonance or a visible connection between the people.  Our bodies’ auras emanated and we glowed –  it was reflective of their high vibrational way of being.

They weren’t so focused on holding on to their egos, thus creating a more physical form. Our physical bodies are like the encasing or protection of the ego. This detachment from our egos, as Lemurians and Atlanteans, allowed our aura, or light to shine which was their attractive quality. Unlike us, who fixate on our physical form like the shape of our bodies or curves of our smiles. Back in the time of Lemurian, it was about your glow, and your energy and eminence, which was the attractive part of meeting new people.

Lemurians had Open Relationships

Lemurians were all about free-loving and less one-to-be focused. This concept is growing in the modern days yet there is still struggle and heartbreak. In Lemurian times it worked because they did not hold on to their ego. For us, it is a little bit harder to grasp because of the general reaction when the concept of open and free love is brought up – people roll their eyes and mutter: “Ahhh, the hippie stuff,”. Lemurians found it highly acceptable to go from one partner to the next and not be offended if your partner goes to spend time with other people.

What Nutrients Did the Lemurians Survive On?

They were unequivocally attracted to sunlight and sun energy was there, their primary directive of what they wanted to consume. So some Lemurians were getting their food completely from the sun. They were able to be at such a high vibrational place that the energy of the sun could be absorbed by the cells and the skin and actually converted into nutrient energy to allow them to live a very healthy and pure life. They also had a diet of plants but selective plants that they knew would give off more energy than others. There was not really much animal eating, and there wasn’t any need for that, because they were getting it in the most direct route possible – the sun.

What Have We Brought From Our Lemurian Roots?

We have had some characteristics that were transferred down through Lemurians that now have reached human beings and human beings, like singing and dancing. Singing and dancing are very sacred to the Lemurians. They managed to routinely perform them on a day-to-day basis – as a way to bring themselves together harmoniously.

They used the notes of the music to get on the same wavelength with one another, criss-cross energies, and feeling the heartbeat of the community. This was practiced as a community, collectively. Not because it was mandatory but it would almost be like happy hour. They would align their crystals in certain patterns whilst they sang and danced to work in harmony with them. These are some of the familiar aspects of our societies, ranging across cultures.

Do You Feel Connected to the Lemurians?

If you find yourself inexplicably attracted to the stories of Lemuria – that they just make sense to you, that is your connection to Lemurians. It’s a validation that you have had these other lives, and you’re here now for a reason. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be reading this. In the vast majority, there is more of a profound curiosity in discovering who you’ve been and who you really are.

If that’s the case, I believe it means you have come from those places. That connection that you feel now means that you are able to access that past self at any moment in time. With a little bit of practice, you can have a conversation with your past self to gain some insight and wisdom from that life. So if you feel like you have an interest in this legendary place you probably lived as a Lemurian yourself and you are now starting to realize that.

What Can We Learn From Lemurians?

There’s parallelism where the leaders placed themselves in the position as the “saviors” claiming to be the solution, to guide you through turmoil. But they actually set you on a path of fear. Throughout human civilization that that model has recreated itself and ultimately led to crazy situations like Nazi Germany, apartheid, and anything of that nature.

You still see remnants of this in different societies, you find percolations of this still, here in America. What I think needs to happen is a changing of the idea that we need a messiah who has all the answers. Just the idea that leadership does not need to come from a dominant figure who thinks they know what we need. It is about generating a spark of change that other people can follow and do the same for others – we can lead together. It is to not care so much for your connection to money or the physical idea of wealth.

Final Notes

Lemurians were a highly intelligent, free-loving culture of people who lived in harmony with each other and all living things on Earth. There are stories of a great flood which was the demise of the ancient civilization. But where did they go? Some migrated to Mount Shasta, in India, some were said to go into the oceans and evolved or transformed into sea creatures – possibly mermaids!

It is said that some of them disappeared into the intricate tunnel system deep under the Earth’s surface. This whole topic is just too fascinating for me and I urge you to share your experiences of remembering lives that might possibly be from the time of Lemuria. If this story strikes a keen interest, you probably have.

FAQ

Did Lemurians like animals?

Their relationship with animals was extremely trusting. And there was communication with the animals too, because of the high resonance and not just pets. It was really any animal that was out there in nature, there was the connection with Lemurians to be able to have a relationship with animals other than just a dog and a cat, maybe a bird.

How long ago did the Lemurians live?

The Lemurians were living and thriving in ancient civilizations. It is said that a great flood made them migrate underground and into the ocean. This was said to have happened between one and nine million years ago.

Are Lemurians still living?

There are rumors about the Legendary Lemurians living in Mount Shasta. There are those who believe they evolved into sea creatures similar to that of the mermaids.

Were There Dragons In Lemuria?

I have come across some who have reported seeing dragons in their QHHT sessions where the life they are revisiting is in Lemuria. According to the mythology of Lemuria, there were 5th-dimensional dragons but they were not the typical dragons that come to mind like from Dragon Heart or Game of Thrones. There was a capability to interact with them, and other beings, inter-dimensionally. This may have suggested that these beings were much like holograms and they were almost transparent. This could have lead to the idea of the physical dragons from mythology. The Lemurians had connections to higher realms and light beings which could’ve been perceived as dragon-like-energy.

What is a shadow self? First, we’ll discuss the literal meaning. When we look at a shadow, without trying to make something spiritual out of it, what do you think of?

A shadow is a part of something, light creates shadow. We notice that the shadow is not static, it’s in motion. It moves as you move, as the sun moves, it can grow bigger or smaller, longer or wider, it just depends upon illumination.

Shadow Self Meaning

The history of this term is with Carl Jung, from the psychological perspective he came up with the term, shadow self, being that part of the individual’s construct which the ego wishes to repress, degrade or try to hide with a cloak as if it’s not there, or not part of the consciousness of that person. Therefore, having it be a reflection of a person that is concealed behind a person.

Why we must reveal, and not conceal our Shadow Self

The point made by a lot of psychologists in this, by hiding this part of us is not healthy – that we’re not living an authentic life if we are not coming to grips with what our shadow selves really are. With plant medicine, I have heard and personally experienced in my one ayahuasca journey, that these things come up a lot of the time, the analogies of the shadow self and working through parts of yourself that wish to come up so that you’re aware of them is a part of that process to set yourself free so that subconsciously you’re doing anything to sabotage yourself. You’re at least doing it consciously – which is a big step. What I’ve noticed is that in our lives we keep making the same mistakes and we’re sort of oblivious not knowing what they don’t know. So, how do we handle this?

How do Shadow Selves Form?

A heavy contributor to shadows ae a result of relationships. Relationships give us the ability to sense that greater part of ourselves and expand and allow that true self to really shine and be authentic. Or, there are options. You can potentially become something else that’s not your authentic self just to please someone, to feel that sense of acceptance, receiving attention, and feel loved by someone. These are all very normal human qualities that we’re searching for.

Where might these relationships begin developing that shadow self? In our childhoods, we think of the people who mean everything to us like our parents or immediate family. As children, we want to please them and we learn quickly how to adapt to please them. If our parent’s behavior is not in line with our authentic self, that we decided to come into this world to be and a big theme of our life is unwinding that energy and rewinding it up into an authentic self. So, you could be a playful spirit entering this world and perhaps you’re meant to be an actor or a performer of some kind.

Understanding your Shadow Self

Sometimes, it can be challenging if we’re born to parents who believe we should be seen and not hard and this part of us is repressed. It’s not the fault of the parents – there is no training manual before we embark on this journey of parenthood. Especially if we go back historically, they just didn’t know better and we’re working with very 3D elements in the world of how a child should behave and they should have manners and discipline so that means that they’ll do well in this world. While, at the same time, the child’s heart is being broken by being compressed. We tend to hold on to these childhood experiences and a lot of times still into adulthood and the old age we still hold on to these shadow selves.

Live Authentically and embrace your Shadow Self

Practically speaking, I could go through everyone in my life –  if I wished to do a bit of an exercise with this shadow work. I could simply ask the question; how do I wish to perceive them? And, how do I wish for them to perceive me? It’s a little bit different with every single person in your life because there’s a certain energy that mixes with each individual where the two of you form your own being, so to speak – your energies mix. When you’re with your friends you merge your worlds and your energies’ make something special. At some point, if they’re your good friends, hopefully, that part of you that is showing is a very excited and passionate part of you to share which should be reciprocated. You can see from your experiences that when you’re with certain people you like to share different aspects of yourself with them because they resonate with it. You can take stock, honestly, with yourself and ask, where is my relationship with this person now, and what’s my preference? Is there a gap between them and where I am now? What is my preference is? That’s bringing this analogy of this shadow to the surface in a super practical way that’s 5D.

The second part of it is realizing that I am that and that I wish to be seen as that right now. There is nothing holding you back from being that right now with every relationship and the world shifts when you decide that – period. You just have to hold fast onto who you wish to be. You always have this “tool” of preference at your disposal and it doesn’t have to be this sinister, dark thing that’s plaguing you, and you can’t figure it out and you’re trying to do different things to bring it out because it’s not that complicated. Here’s a tip, rather focus on getting in touch with how you feel as opposed to how you think you should be. That is applying expectation on yourself and others and that is leading you to disappointment and you are not living your authentic self.

Your shadow self is part of you

Staying true to who you really are and not conforming for whatever reason, or giving in to temptation, is such a human thing to do – to please others. How many of you are people pleasers? It seems to be a natural suppression of your heart to please others. The challenge that we get into in this human experience is we put ourselves into these environments where we’re pleasing others and that energy isn’t productive in what it’s doing and the energy is not an even exchange. When we get energetic imbalances that’s when we go a little awry with our spiritual circuitry. One vibration is faster than the other and when they come together, they will collide.

Living in 5D

I want to be able to create my life in a very 5D way and I want to be very conscious of old ways of thinking that I have individually, or that the institutions or the collective have. I want to be able to see it and I don’t want it to disappear. I want to know it’s there and I want to be able to select the parallel version of that that is the 5D version. I want that to manifest isn’t the way that I eat, the way that I exercise, the way that I interact with people or concepts, the way that I listen to my higher self, and how it enables me to contribute to the collective. Those are just a few ways by which I want to live. There might be some parts of me that are in the 3D world that I need to figure out and work through and that is called our shadow self.

I often find myself resisting that temptation to just agree and conform to 3D standards just because that’s how it’s done. Being a complimentary being to where when I see something about someone, and I admire an action that they took. I feel confident to complement their action, to make sure that they notice what they’ve done so that there’s a feedback loop, a 5D feedback loop, that reinforces the positive, healthy behavior of a fellow earth being, so that they’re more in line with their feedback loop and that positive energy reverberates with them and they continue to do more. In this 3D world, criticism is readily available. We go on to Twitter or Instagram and we put up opinions and then boom! Criticism. Or as we walk down the street people give criticism. But, more often than not, people are expressing this criticism and not the compliments. We as human beings are almost losing the art of compliments.

Things to remember about your shadow self

The rule for me when I’m observing something and I hear the voice inside saying, wow! That was impressive. I have made my feedback loop automatic and complementary. There isn’t a decision of authenticity. There is also peril in this in the way that you can question yourself and your own authenticity and you can repress yourself by doing so. This is something we need to watch or pay attention to. I would rather air on the side of overextending than under-extending. There are very few people who are very complimentary.

People are more in their own worlds, grounded in their heads not being observant of others and that’s part of the society that we’re undergoing right now and they’re questioning other people to see if they share the same belief systems and views and they’re not ready to give out compliments right away because they want to suss those people out, to see if they’re on the same team. When you are helping someone with their positive feedback loop, complimenting and acknowledging something you appreciate of them that you have observed, you’re also getting back a vibration escrow. What you give out into the universe you get back. The positive energy that you’re getting you might not feel right away. Therefore, don’t expect a secondary compliment from the person you are dealing with right away – don’t go fishing for compliments.

Key Takeaways

So how do you embrace your shadow? The least shadow is when the sun is over-head and at its brightest. So, you must let your light shine brighter so your shadows can’t be present. Letting your light shine also means working on yourself, those negative aspects our ego likes to hide away – bring them to the light so the shadow dissipates. Be real with yourself, because everyone has a shadow self.

FAQs

What is your shadow self?

A shadow self is the version of you which our ego likes to hide away or disguise with a mask. It is the less desirable side that contradicts the idea of our perfect self who has no issues seemingly. It is a term created by Carl Jung, as a way to describe the face people use in the outside world and our true face introspectively.

Why must we deal with our shadow self?

By hiding certain aspects of ourselves we are suppressing our authentic self. This will fester and negative behaviors will arise from us. If we deny ourselves our true interests in this earthly world, the interests which we chose to bring into this life with us, our energy will not flow beneficially.

How do we bring our Shadow Selves to the Light?

Our Shadow selves are only hidden because our ego, which is created according to societal norms, deems those aspects of ourselves less desirable. If we choose to live a life that is authentic without judging ourselves and rather spending time with people who resonate positively with us, we will be less afraid to face our so-called demons. By simply looking at our negative qualities and seeing them for what they are – a part of you – and not this terrible thing, your shadows start to seem less intimidating and more acceptable. Eventually, they will cease to be.

Myers Briggs sensing vs intuition: What is the difference?

The difference between sensing and intuition is that sensing is physical because you rely on your five physical senses like your sight, sense of touch, taste, hearing, or smell. Your intuition is spiritual because it is based on the interpretation of your thoughts and feelings. the sensing type makes up three-quarters of the world’s population, making the intuitive type far rarer.

The Myers-Briggs type indicator, also known as MBTI (and will be referred to as such), was created by Carl Jung. It is a great tool with which we can understand our loved ones. Comprised of four sectors; extroversion or introversion; sensing vs intuition, thinking vs feeling, and judging vs perceiving, but we will focus on intuitive vs sensing.

The benefits of sensing over intuition

Below are some benefits in Myers Brigg’s personality traits of sensing people experience over the intuitive type.

• Can make quick decisions and take action on something they have similar past experiences.
• Great observation powers attention to detail.
• Lives in the here-and-now and focus on their physical reality.
• Makes sure they understand the whole situation before taking action.
• Down-to-earth, practical, logical, and pragmatic.

The benefits of intuition over sensing

n in Myers Briggs personality trait advantages of the intuitive person.

• Theories and philosophers who appreciate all possibilities.
• Able to focus and appreciate the bigger picture.
• Have strength in their abstract thought and imagination.
• Loves coming up with new concepts and solutions.
• Ability to empathise easily, or see things from someone else’s perspective.
• Can predict or jump to conclusions with only a fraction of the information.

Sensing vs intuition examples

Even though it can be easy to read in black and white, noticing these different personality type’s methods can be harder in person. In order to bring clarity to this, we have come up with some real-life examples of the perceptions of an intuitive vs sensor personality.

Music

If you were to gaze upon Stary Night by Van Gogh, do you see just the intricate swirls and blends of colors as a sensing person might, or does it inspire deeper thoughts and emotions as it would with an intuitive person?

At work

If you are given a problem to solve at work, do you scrutinize the details of the issue so you can execute the most efficient strategy as a sensing person would? Or, do you come up with a new plan to ensure this problem does not repeat itself in the future.

Sense of direction

A sensing person would be able to tell you in extreme detail how to find a certain shop on a particular road as they take in their physical world very well. An intuitive person might not be aware of that shop, even if they travel on the same road every day on their way home from work.

In artwork

If asked to describe a picture or a painting, a sensing person will talk about the shapes or the colors used whereas an intuitive person will perceive a theme, and speak about its deeper meaning.

MBTI sensing vs intuition: Key takeaways

With all of the world’s abundance and beauty, we need a  wide variety of perceptions in order to understand fully. Therefore, not one personality is better than the other. The sensors balance out the intuition and vice versa. All of the aspects that make up a personality are important and necessary for harmony, including judging vs perceiving, and extraversion vs introversion.
