using your Truth Love Energy to learn how to choose, and to choose how to learn
BEYOND YOU: a look at who “you” are beyond this lifetime, including comments about your Essence Twin, your Casting within your Entity, your Frequency, and your Focused/Creative Energy Ratio.
FROM MICHAEL:
Your Essence appears to have chosen the Role of Artisan approximately 6 million years ago by standards of measurement currently used on Earth, and did so after 9 previous Grand Cycles as Sage, Priest, Artisan, Sage, Priest, Scholar, Scholar, Priest, Sage. It appears to us that the pattern is now a retracing of Roles already having been experienced. We think this is because there is a fascination with the creativity, observations, and visions that can be inherent in these Roles, and to utilize these through various species has come to be a pattern of interest. There is a rather weak, but distinct, thread of consciousness for you that extends across your Grand Cycles, which is not usual. There is always a thread of resonance that exists because the Essence is “the same” across all Grand Cycles, regardless of Role and lifetimes, and this does play into the choices being made by Essence and Personality to some extent, but it is not conscious. In your case, there is a consciousness there, which means that your imagination is probably extreme, vivid, and active to such an extent that it must be managed. By now, in your older Soul Age, this is an asset, or a novelty, but it has been troublesome to some of your younger Personalities. The greater the consciousness, the greater the imagination, and your starting point for consciousness is rather raw, compared to others. Keep in mind that “imagination” is not the same thing as “delusion.” Imagination is a frequency, or a field, and it can be used to support delusions, but it is not the same thing. When a person is delusional or deranged, the food that fuels that person may be a part of the whole that is that person and his delusions, but it is not the source or cause of the delusion, and so should Imagination be seen as such. It is a tool, not a cause. We clarify this because as part of your journey over this Grand Cycle, it may have come to be a beloved burden to have such imagination and consciousness, knowing that there are benefits and value, but also that it is often shunned and frowned upon by those less-interested in the products of such. The more you embrace the value, the more stable that access is, and that is what is important, if it is important to you at all.
Your Casting and Essence Twin reflect your Essence’s resonance to these other Roles explored by your Essence, as you have Sage Casting and a Priest Essence Twin.
The Artisan Role is going to be how your Essence “shines” in the lifetimes, as it can fulfil its creativity, but the Sage-Casting is how you would find you “function” or live on the day-to-day basis, as you fulfill the playfulness of the child within, and the sharing of its growing wisdom. The Sage-Casting will tend to funnel all creativity of the Artisan through the Sage tendency toward play, fun, and bringing a light-heartedness to even the most profound of creativity from the Artisan. The higher Creative Energy ratio, and higher Frequency are in support of this spectrum of Expression, and because of those, the creative expression and the disseminated expression are going to be “all over the place,” and prefer a kind of free-flow, untamed, and untidy general atmosphere that is then honed when necessary or appropriate. Because of the thread of raw consciousness, the imagination, and these energy dynamics supporting expression, we would think any hampering or shaming of your expression on any level is disturbing and painful, if taken seriously and imposed upon the self.
Your Essence Twin is a Guide in this life, and helps to support more visionary aims for all of this imagination and creativity, and may be felt as a kind of private or unspoken pressure to bring more meaning to expression, or to “do something” with it.
UBER-PATTERNS: a look at how some of the key dynamics of your Essence Design have shown up across lifetimes, including the overall arcing theme that contributes to the experience and knowledge of your Entity.
FROM MICHAEL:
We might describe the theme across all of this Grand Cycle as being TO BE FREE. This is a broad statement, but captures the explorations that have included fights for freedom, definitions of freedom, unbridled freedoms and restricted freedoms, and ultimately the infrastructure of freedom. You are currently exploring the infrastructure of Freedom, which is Discipline. There is no True Freedom without structure, without discipline, without accountability and responsibility, etc. It is not simply about having no restrictions, but about how consciousness moves within that freedom. And so this Grand Cycle has been, in general, about an emphasis on how your Essence experiences, defines, and ultimately IS free. With such fluidity and expression at your access, this has been quite a useful theme that contributes greatly to how you would exist now as an Old Soul.
THE CURRENT YOU: a look at current lifetime themes, status of your Essence Twin, how your positive and negative poles show up, and any obstacles and solutions to fully manifesting Essence through this Personality.
FROM MICHAEL:
The current lifetime does not steer much from the overall arc of the Grand Cycle theme, but with an emphasis on the Moving aspects of creativity and freedom so that there may be more emphasis on the tangibility of creativity. An emphasis on something being shaped from the creativity and freedom, to follow lines from idea to form, and all that this entails. We might then describe this lifetime’s theme as CREATING FORM. This is akin to giving homes to various pockets and packages of creativity that is brought forth, so that those can “live on” in ways that can be shared, received, etc. The Life Task, then, helps to support this.
When your Essence is embraced, and True Personality is manifested, we might describe this as being most obvious by your SOCIALIZING. When you are at your best, there is an interest and gracefulness in your moving about with other people, motivated by a sense of exchange and meaning.
When your Essence is rejected, and False Personality is in control, we might describe this as being most obvious in ISOLATION. This does not mean you are alone, nor lonely, but isolated. There is a block on any exchanges of value and meaning, and a depletion of inspiration and creativity, or these are manifested in outbursts and pointlessness just for the sake of getting it up and out of you.
When you find that you are isolating yourself, even if in the midst of interactions, it may be because you have forgotten your own value, your own meaning, and importance. This can be returned by moving toward more expression, more vocalizing, more form given to your creativity that can be shared. If you find that you are sharing again, it is often a symptom of your returning back to an embrace of Essence, and exchanges become meaningful again.
Often, all that is necessary for you to move out of Isolation and back into Socializing is paying attention the form your expression takes, and if you find meaning in this, then you know that others can, too.

Comment by James D. on February 22, 2012 at 3:42pm Wow. Thanks, Astra. I think I got two other thumbs up on it. I take a photo, do some basic enhancements (light/contrast ; saturation ; tone, sharpen) and then use the liquify and smudge tools to make incremental changes, saving a new file each time. After I've done 20 or 30 I import them into iMovie. I think I saved the files in that one as .tif, as the resolution's a bit better. After I've three or four hundred (or eight hundred) frames, I convert the video into Quicktime format (.mov) and import it into a new project and speed it up (sometimes a few speed-ups are needed). I recorded the music w/ electric guitar, a drum pad and added some effects). I did another one late last year but it kinda sucks. I'll send you a link anyway. Thank so much for your kind words.

Comment by James D. on February 22, 2012 at 3:11pm It sounds like you have an advanced skill set for PsCS2, which undoubtedly provides a wide palette of tools to serve your imagination. I've been working w/ the rudiments of Ps for years, mostly using the 'liquify' tool. I'm more of a neanderthal spreading pigments on a cave wall. I fully appreciate your perseverance and recurring frustration. Your work has clearly been worth the effort. I turned nearly 800 frames into a video a few years ago. The piece of full of color and fury, signifying nothing, but I had fun doing it:

I may be generalizing inaccurately here, but it seems like some of the most prolific and high-impact art is produced by higher level mature souls. You have already established a distinctive style. I tip my hat to you. :)

Comment by James D. on February 22, 2012 at 12:50pm I can relate to all of that, Astra. When I've worked with people in an office, it usually takes them 3-6 months to 'get' my brand of humor - thankfully, most people have, but it's like they have to grow a new receptor site. I generally don't care much how people view me, but only if I've tried to embrace them first and shared all than I can to make a connection. Of course I want to be liked, but that's not always going to happen.
Thank you for sharing. Welcome to the TLE community - great to have you. Your artwork is striking and beautiful. At some point I'd love to find out more about which media you use, and your process.
