Connecting to Soul

by Sherry Stapleton

 

 

 

 

When I divorced my first husband, my mother came to stay with me for a while and encouraged me to get out and socialize.  I had taken ballroom dancing lessons for several years as a child, and so I decided to join ballroom dancing classes for singles.  I had been quite shy throughout my life, and so I felt pleased when I swallowed my fear one evening and went solo to one of the school’s dances.

 

I had always enjoyed dancing this type of dance.  I found it graceful and easy if you knew the steps.  It had a continuous flow to it.  At the school dance, the couples moved in rhythm, working their way around the dance floor.  And, I found I was kept busy throughout the evening by the gentlemen who asked me to dance.

 

There was one particular gentleman that I danced with for quite a while.  At one point, he gently said to me that it was OK to look him in the eyes as we danced.  My shy nature caused me to look away from most people most of the time.  And so I did my best to smile and him and to look at him directly…and I though about how much the dance classes had taught me about life.

 

Throughout my adult life, I had been required to take the lead.  My first husband had been working toward a doctoral degree.  So, I went to work to finance the family.  I was an engineer, a female in a male’s world, so to speak.  And I had learned to spin my energy in the same way as my male colleagues.  I found it necessary to do so in order to be understood and viewed as an equal. 

 

But when dancing ballroom style, spinning masculine energy did not create a graceful flow.  Ballroom dancing consists of a male and female partnership, moving in synchronized rhythm.  One has to lead, one has to follow.  The male must lead and make the decisions about where to move on the dance floor and what type of dance step to use.  Whenever I had a partner who was new to ballroom or who could not stay in time to the music, I would try to take over the job of leading the dance.  When I did, we would end up tripping on each other’s feet or bumping into other couples.  It never was a pleasant experience for me or my partner.  And so I learned, no matter what, I had to allow my partner to lead…even if he could not find the rhythm or did not know all the steps.

 

In ascension, a relationship with soul (i.e., soul/oversoul/source) is essential to continued evolution.  Soul needs the physical to ascend and the physical needs soul.  Our physical selves are collecting up those lost conscious and unconscious pieces of our ancestors, and soul is collecting those pieces of soul that became shattered through eons of time.  Our dream for our life expression is co-created with earth such that both form and soul may evolve.  The physical form needs opportunities to transcend oppressive thought forms and soul needs opportunities to learn through the experience of the physical.  Ascension is a dance of soul and form.

 

Whenever one is moving through a difficult life circumstance, soul can provide a view “from above,” so to speak.  A good conversation with soul can allow for a deeper understanding of the lessons being learned.  In seeing the bigger picture we are able to understand how we are benefiting from the difficult life circumstance.

 

So, how does one develop a relationship with soul?  As with everything, it is through intention.  We want to intend to embody soul that supports our ascension and the ascension of the whole.  Any other nonphysical force, we can command out of our field.  We also want to intend to commune and communicate only with soul which is supportive of our ascension and the ascension of the whole.  And we must learn to discern when forces wish to “put thoughts in our head” that are contrary to our best possible ascension dream.  I have found that I am less apt to connect with destructive forces if I turn off the voices in my head and communicate only through my heart, in both speaking to and listening to soul.

 

There are several parts of the energetic field that I have found are important to synchronize when attempting to converse with soul.  So, whenever I feel I am not hearing soul clearly or that something is getting in the way of pure communications with my soul, I go through the following checklist:

 

  1. Is my communication with soul distorted or compromised?  If it is, then I intend to release all karma related as I understand and transcend the underlying thought form.  I highlight all others involved and pull their tapestries of ancestry in front of me, place my tapestry of ancestry on top of theirs, and run the pale pink and pale violet tones of forgiveness and understanding through and between the lineages.  I intend to bathe the situation in absolute forgiveness and absolute love, asking the rose quartz and amethyst kingdoms for assistance.

 

  1. Have my guardians been manipulated?  If so, I intend to retrieve, resurrect, and reconstitute my guardians as necessary.  Then I intend to recast my guardians with a full new set, working through the healing temples to accomplish it. 

 

  1. Have my angels been manipulated?  If so, I intend to retrieve, resurrect, and reconstitute my angels.  Then I push all angels down my grounding, asking earth to assist in casting a new set of angels from my source.  Any angels that will not leave, I intend to freeze, shatter, and release to the aurora.

 

  1. Is my crown chakra shattered or otherwise compromised?  Sometimes, destructive forces like to take over the crown chakra so that confusing or wrong messages are received by the physical.  I have found that my crown chakra can be manipulated by being shattered, being replaced by someone else’s, or being pulled into someone else’s dream.  So, I determine the manipulation and intend to undo it. 

 

  1. Are my oversouls compromised?  In my experience, my oversouls are the ones that have a good overall view of what is happening to my field.  They often sound matter-of-fact and are helpful when I’m needing to piece myself back together after a major manipulation.  When I begin to hear things that do not feel supportive or true to who I am, I often find my oversouls have become shattered and some destructive force has come in and is trying to interfere with my own guidance from soul.  In this case, I intend to shatter the destructive forces, resurrect and reconstitute my oversouls, and then recast them through the healing temples in the aurora.

 

  1. Have my source connection chakras become compromised?  The source connection chakras are those chakras that are above the head between the oversouls and source.  They are like the telephone wire that connect us to source and allow for communication.  I have found that the source connection chakras are often manipulated in order to disrupt our connection to source.  Often the space between my source connection chakras is enlarged and false guidance stuffed in.  In this case, I intend to collapse the space between back to its appropriate level and uncast all machines and entities attempting to inflate the space between in this region.  Other times, my source connection chakras become connected to someone else’s source or someone else’s source connection chakras become intertwined in mine.  When this occurs, I intend to disentwine my source connection from all others, creating my own sovereign connection to my own true soul/oversoul/source.  When I find this does not work, then I intend to recast my source connection chakras in full through the healing temples in the aurora.

 

  1. Is my dreamtime self missing or compromised?  I have found that my dreamtime self is an important part of my connection to source.  My dreamtime self feels like the “big me”.  When I don’t feel “big Sherry” around me, then I know that I have become disconnected from my dreamtime self.  When this occurs, I intend to retrieve it and recast it.  My dreamtime self is often manipulated by being replaced with the dreamtime self of another.  When this occurs, I intend to retrieve my dreamtime self and return theirs.  Very rarely, I find that my silver cord connecting me to my dreamtime self has become damaged.  When this happens, I repair or replace it as necessary.  Whenever my dreamtime self has been manipulated, I check to see if I have missed any trips to the healing temples or if I missing any healings that my dreamtime self received at the healing temples.  If so, I intend to retrieve any healings missed.

 

  1. Is my digestive system compromised.  The upper part of the digestive system includes magnetics that assists in pulling down the next lessons from source.  I find that when my digestive system is compromised it is difficult for me to understand the lessons surrounding the karma I am working on transcending.  I also find that a conscious understanding of my lessons is sometimes necessary before I am able to release the karma.  Usually when my digestive system is compromised it is because I have given it away to another.  So, I intend to retrieve it, returning whatever I accepted in the exchange. 

 

  1. Is my source compromised?   My source feels like the “all loving” me.  I used to find that my source would become compromised every so often.  However, earth has become so adept at managing her consensus and the kingdoms therein; that I have not experienced this is more than two years.  Before that, I would sometimes find that my source had become shattered or that my source was not able to support my continued ascension.  On the rare occasion that I find this to be true, I work with the healing temples and ask earth to assist in casting a new source for me.  Once I am connected to my new source I intend to cast new angels, souls, and oversouls through the healing temples. 

 

Way back when, twenty years ago or more, we used to call our inner guidance our “guides.”  I remember going to a psychic and asking her how to connect to my guides.  I remember her saying, “My dear, it’s like picking up the phone.  You just begin talking.”  I found this advice to be very helpful.  And as I have matured and evolved I have also learned that supportive ongoing communication with soul/oversoul/source means that I must continue to develop and maintain a close relationship with soul.  This requires discerning when my guidance becomes to judgmental of those around me or otherwise non-supportive to my intention to ascend.  When this occurs I know that my connection to soul has probably become compromised.  And then I move through my checklist in order to reconnect with my true guidance.

 

I hope that you have found this information helpful to you in your continued ascension.  And I hope that my experiences may help you in developing and maintaining your own supportive relationship with soul.
