Understanding feelings

Tuesday, September 18th, 2018

QUESTION: Masters, I’m writing you because ever since my brother took his own life (at fourteen), two years ago, I’ve been having severe social anxiety. I’m too conscious of my surroundings, all my actions are based on fear of rejection. I have this deep feeling I’m different than most people, that I’m not supposed to be here. There is a lot of love in me. I try to never have any cruel intentions towards anyone. Yet no matter how hard I try, I can’t comfort or reassure myself this anxiety is coming from my own creation. I’m 18 now but have gone through the most dark and horrible emotions towards myself and my life. My brother and I had a strong connection and I feel like he is the only one who would understand me through this. Could you please tell me, is there anything I’m doing wrong? ~Fanny, The Netherlands

ANSWER: You sense that your brother’s departure originated from his sense of being rejected and hated by those around him. Your closeness to him makes you wonder why you didn’t see his decision before he acted upon it. You also wonder if you are headed in the same direction.

You are extremely sensitive and have sensed that your friends don’t know how to treat you anymore after your brother’s suicide. This is the cause of your anxiety in social situations. The most prominent difference is your feeling of not belonging because others, not having gone through the death of a sibling, just don’t understand your loss.

You are present in this world by choice. You decided you wanted to enter this life, and as horrible as it may seem, you wished to experience the tragedies that have surrounded you. It is possible to connect to your brother on the Other Side. Let him help you understand why these things appeared in your life and how you can live with them and learn from them.

The only thing you are doing that you can change is your attitude about the current events in your life. First remember that you are a soul who is having a human experience to learn how to deal with negativity, and draw as close as possible to a life of complete, unconditional love. The essence of your soul is the Source energy from which you came. That means you have all the powers and abilities of which Source is composed. Use those to work through your sorrow, anxiety, and aloneness.

Find a peer group of others who have experienced this same horrid life lesson. Share your feelings with them and hear the difficulties they are having and how they have been able to deal with them. You are not alone in this. There are those in human form who understand and those in spirit form who will help if asked.

Rejection in many forms

Tuesday, September 11th, 2018

QUESTION: Masters why has my relationship with my mother been difficult from my birth? I know I annoyed her as a baby because I cried an abnormally amount, so we never bonded. I tried to bond with her during childhood, but she constantly sent me away from her presence and physically beat me practically daily. Is her rejection of me the foundational reason I can’t move on from constantly thinking about this guy with whom I became intimate who lied by omission about having a girlfriend? (I.e. I don’t deal with rejection well.) We were friends first and he never mentioned her. Does he care about me as a friend? Will I ever experience love and security? ~Reece, USA

ANSWER: Your chosen major lesson is all about rejection and how far you allow it to impact the rest of your existence. Your mother never really wanted to have a child, and when you arrived colicky, she had a reason to reject you. When you wished to bond at a later age, she was afraid you would take too much time and make too many demands of her, so she physically forced you away. Her rejection turned into a sense of abandonment.

You choose to carry a stigma of rejection, which all are able to sense. It’s as if you are announcing: “It is my lot in life to be rejected, particularly by those I desperately need to love me.” Your friend picked up on this vibe and subconsciously thought: “Hey, I can have some fun with no repercussions because this is what she feels she needs.” His not being honest with you only added to his dose of rejection and deception.

Until you understand your lesson and remove the impression you project of your desires, nothing is going to change. More people will appear to treat you in the same fashion. As a soul you do not have any negative energies, so it is time to let your human self also shed them.

You must first accept that this path was a chosen one made by your fantastic and all-loving soul. Your essence is nothing but unconditional love that all seek to share with you, but it has been hidden behind the lesson you allowed to cover your magnificence.

You must understand that everyone creates their own reality and their own definition and illusion of their world. It is time to erase the negatively accepted picture you project of yourself and let others see you.

See yourself as the most desirable, loving person in the world, who is ready and willing to share that love. Envision a relationship based upon shared love and truthfulness. Open yourself up to a partnership where you don’t anticipate rejection. Let rejection, abandonment, and deception become a thing of the past. Manifest that vision and enjoy your true happiness.

Planning for the next life

Tuesday, August 28th, 2018

QUESTION: Masters, when does a soul choose whether it wants to be reborn or not? Can I start planning my next life from now on or do I need to wait until I reach the spirit world? How do I know if what my soul decides for my next life is in line with my desire during this life time? And how can I wish to be taken and then reborn at the same time with my beloved cat, as I love her so and I want our soul to be together for every journey? ~Asa, Southeast Asia

ANSWER: The planning for an incarnation on Earth is accomplished while in spirit form at Home with the advice of your council of twelve advisors. All details of what you seek to experience, and the means necessary to set it all up, are discussed. You may find when you return Home that you have learned more about an Earth lesson than you thought and don’t want to spend additional time repeating it.

There is nothing that says you can’t start your planning now, but it may be like the child who sees themselves as a fireman, lawyer, doctor, or dancer as a career in their future. You may find those professions don’t draw you to them when you are mature. Or you may find you don’t have the physical or mental capacity to be successful in one or more of them. So, it can be a lot of time wasted with no substantial benefit.

You came to Earth to learn lessons and to understand who you are as a soul and what powers and abilities that gives you. You must be present in the moment to learn and take full advantage of the situations you have drawn to yourself. If you are day dreaming about an imagined future, which may never come, you are wasting time and missing what will help you in this life.

Your cat is one of the 1 to 2 per cent of animals with a soul. The two of you have been together before and switch roles in each life. You have been the animal and it your human, you have both been animals, and you have both been human – both friends and enemies. Each incarnation brings different plans for learning something new without needlessly repeating the same events. It is also up to that soul if they wish to be with you again.
