It's all New Age baloney! Here's some giveaways for the unfamiliar:

The site talks about ascension to 5D (that's one of the central things of New Age right now)

The whole Cosmic Christ/Christ Consciousness thing (New Age concepts)

Christianity is presented as a conspiracy created to suppress the Divine Feminine (typical New Age conspirituality).

Mention of Lemuria (New Agers hang onto the idea of Lemuria despite it being debunked as hell).

Mention of Unity Consciousness (New Age term meaning people thinking/believing alike).

Mention of Annunaki hybrids (New Age belief that Sumerian gods were actually extraterrestrials).

Templar Knight conspiracy theories (not unique or original to New Age, but New Age is all about those conspiracy theories in general).

Recent posts have info on a Lion's Gate and a 777 portal - more New Age stuff.

Your friend might wanna check out something like It's Probably (not!) Aliens or Miniminuteman, because if they're getting into that stuff, they're definitely at risk of sliding down the New Age to Alt Right pipeline.

Really wish ppl would stop calling me a star child/indigo child or saying that I'm a seed from another planet or whatever new age autism denial when I talk about being autistic.

May I have a dream interpretation please? I just woke up and I forgot pretty much everything else except for the part that bothers me. Recently I disconnected from a very toxic friend that threw me into the thralls of spiritual psychosis and really had me convinced that this celebrity was my twin flame and was going to save me from my problems. It’s been months but I’ve been making good progress going back to normal however last night I had a dream with that celebrity again.

I don’t remember much but all I remember is climbing this tower to help save this woman’s brother from an oppressive government. We ended up getting caught and had to sit in these stadium seats. The woman and some helpers got handcuffed whereas I and two other people weren’t. Yeh woman and the helpers began talking about the brother really liking the celebrities band and cracking jokes. In between the other people sitting was the celebrity. Every time I turned my head to laugh at a joke the celebrity would be trying to get me to pay attention to him by making comments on the joke. The last joke I turned my head and kept it turn. There was a girl with long hair and an empty seat. The guards for some reason handed everyone a test to take. The celebrity switched seats and sat between me and this girl. I turned my head again trying to ignore him and worry about the test and then he said “what’s wrong? Don’t good people usually help others?” And he whispered it in my ear while playing with my hair and as I was waking up I gave in and said fine and then I felt and saw him begin to put his hands on my hips but then retract them in an effort to be respectful? And then began helping me with the test. One thing I noticed is that as soon as the people started talking about the band he showed up and it kinda seemed like no one else saw him. I had another dream with him in it and I honestly don’t want to be dealing with this psychosis again so what May my guides be trying to tell me?

Hello,

Yeah, "twin flame" shit is new-age nonsense. Some of the "indicators" that new-agers like to use, as examples of "recognizing" your "twin flame", are actually red-flags for toxic relationships. And, according to Medical News Today, people can use 'twin flames' to keep people, or themselves, in toxic relationships. The thing that's really bizarre (and that's saying something) about what this person told you is that, even by the harmful new-age standard where this nonsense came from, you still have to know your twin flame. Personally.

So, yeah. I'm happy you've distanced yourself from this person. They sound manipulative and gross, and it seems like they are in the habit of taking already shitty ideologies and using them to suit their needs.

I'm going to give you my thoughts on this dream but- tbh. I do think that this may be a matter for a support group or a therapist to help you with, as I am not a mental health professional.

With that said, I think it's interesting that you said this dream came to you just as things, as you stated, were "getting back to normal"- and I think that's just it. This dream may be a reminder that it's not going to be easy. Most of the details you have listed make me believe that this dream is more about you still trying to work though your experiences.

For instance, trying to rescue and save someone from an oppressive government, then getting caught by said government could be a symbol of trying to escape from an oppressive part of your life and feeling like you can't fully leave it behind. That it has a hold on you. Meanwhile, the test in the dream could, very simply, indicate a feeling that the growth you've achieved is being tested.

I hope you have a good support group, anon. And I hope you're doing better than since you've sent this ask.

How To Dissolve Your Ego

How To Dissolve Your Ego

I often meet people on the spiritual path who are working very hard to “dissolve their ego”. In this video, you’ll learn exactly how to do it:

Grab a glass, a heaped tablespoon of ego, add some hot water and stir briskly for 30 seconds.

That’s how to dissolve your ego.

Look people, you don’t need to “dissolve your ego” in order to be happy, to feel less anxious, or to maintain your sense of peace and calm in stressful situations.

What you need to do is release the emotional charge attached to painful memories from your past so that you don’t get triggered when similar situations arise in your future.

And the way you do that is by feeling and expressing emotions that used to overwhelm you, in a safe place created by a conscious non-judgmental witness.

If that’s of interest to you, drop me a line so we can arrange a Skype session and get some healing happening for you.

Some days I feel so disconnected from the witch community because the amount of hokey bullshit that goes around is just. Overwhelming.

No, there isn't a secret group of Very Tall White People who can Raise Your Vibrations, and yes going to therapy is good for you actually.

Ill be performing solo as dog nonsense at a studio show this Saturday on march 9th. Doors at 8pm, music at 8:30pm. Door is $20, but its a pay what you can venue so no one is turned away. It's in downtown Vancouver if youre lucky enough to be in the area :3 dm me for the specifics of the address if youre interested in coming since its a private studio. I'll probably sell some patches at the show too!

The other performers are awesome too! goats & lasers is an improv music performer i adore, my awesome producer eric is drumming in his band new age doom, and my epic friend theos performing too! A hype line up for sure :)

hi spoiler embargo ended. get rejuv blasted

@stupidrant this is the official, SMS approved (hopefully) gif everyone should use whenever they encounter a fandom troll.

the only thing that irritates me as badly as new agers is western christians trying to explain away the spiritual with pseudoscience

could i get a number one please? i don't think i've seen that xover before.

Yes, you can. I've actually been doing a lot of work on this one recently so it shooooould hopefully have enough momentum to post soon on Ao3? Anyway this one will cover a lot of fun tropes I haven't gotten to play with yet, and it'll star Danny and Dani/Ellie.

* High School Undercover/Transfer Student Danny Fenton * Fake/Undercover Family * Chaos Phantom Siblings * Danny is way overpowered and is *horrendously bad* at hiding it * Ghost Prince Danny trying to do Ghost Prince things * (Intentional) Dimensional Travel

“Hi!” Ellie said, with what he was sure was a blinding smile.

“Sister,” Danny got out before he was being choked, grasping at her arms.

“Uh,” His classmates sat or stood as if waiting for an attack, eyes wide and jaws tight. Iida, as Danny had learned in the period following his quirk assessment, was first to recover. Pushing his glasses up with one hand, the other flew into a chopping rage, “You are not to supposed to be on school grounds! Fenton, this is a heinous disregard of UA’s very explicit rules on visitations! Do you at least have a pass?”

“Oh, he’s angry,” Ellie said. She loosed one arm to make grabby hands for Danny’s lunch. Danny swatted it away with a vengeance, “what’d you do this time, Danny?”

“He’s not wrong,” Danny huffed, smacking the other hand before it closed on his drink, “Ellie, what the hell. You’re not supposed to be here! If someone catches you-”

“If you can’t catch me, nobody can,” She said proudly, sliding down from Danny’s back and plopping back into the space between him and one of the other kids. Todoroki? Todoroki was looking on, completely unbothered, like this was just another Tuesday for him.

“How did you even get in?” Midoriya asked, relaxing enough to continue eating, but now looking frequently around the cafeteria. He looked a little pale in the face. Well, paler.

“I snuck in, duh.” Ellie made another stab for his tray. Danny slid it expertly out of her way with a flick of his hand. She stopped to squint at him, as if daring him to interfere again. “This school is a lot bigger than the old one. Talk about an upgrade. You get yelled at by any teachers yet? Shoved into any lockers? Gotten any swirlies? Any new stupid puns on your name? ‘Fenturd’ is in desperate need of competition.”

“I swear on the Ancients,” Danny hissed under his breath. Once again his stolen fork angled down, and once again it clinked on the table, “One week. I asked for one week!” Clink. “You couldn’t even give me-” Clink, “-one day!” Clink.

“Sounds like you got shoved into a locker,” Ellie said mercilessly, “you’re grumpy today. What for? Did you make any friends yet? What about bullies? It’s just day one, Danny. If you’re getting bullied on day one, there’s just no hope for you.”

“Did you just call me a shark?” Foggy asks, struggling with the fact that the morning light is cutting directly across his right eye in a way he finds profoundly unpleasant and the fact that he would also rather die than move right now. It’s a tough spot to be in. Matt makes an inarticulate noise against his shoulder and buries his face further into the pillow, not enjoying being woken up for conversation at this hour one bit, by the looks of things. Foggy nudges him gently. “Matt?” “I’m awake,” he says, in a way that directly contradicts his own assertion. “Wha—what’s it?” “I asked you a question…” “Yeah,” Matt says, fairly confidently for someone who definitely does not know what’s happening. “I heard you.” “So…?” “Yes.” “Yes, you did call me a shark?” Foggy asks, alarmed. “What?” Matt asks, equally alarmed and finally, mercifully awake enough for this conversation. “Why would I call you a shark?” “That’s what I’m trying to ascertain,” Foggy replies. “I don’t think you were fully awake yet and you said something that sounded like ‘room shark’ and it was right after I kissed you, so I assumed it was directed at me.” “Oh.” Foggy does his best not to sigh in frustration at that very Matt response, which tells him precisely nothing. “So, was it? Directed at me?” “It’s not ‘room shark’. It’s,” Matt says, before repeating the word from before, which still sounds suspiciously like ‘room shark’ to Foggy’s ears. This probably means he’s being made fun of, but, if so, Matt’s doing a good job of hiding it. Looking embarrassed, though, he adds, “It’s Gaeilge, Foggy. Irish?” “Oh.” He’s heard Matt speak Irish before, his heart doesn’t have to get fluttery about it every time. It’s getting more than a little pathetic. “Well, what does it mean?” “It’s not—it’s hard to translate exactly—I wasn’t really awake, so…” Foggy does let himself sigh this time, in case it wears Matt down at all. “Is that code for you’re not going to tell me?” Matt just buries his face in Foggy’s shoulder again, immune to any attempts to influence him by virtue of his sheer shamelessness. “I can’t have you knowing all my secrets,” he says, with a cryptic smile. “I have a reputation as a mysterious gentleman to maintain, you know.”
