The problem maybe that you were a Dolphin the last time

You're here for a reason. Feel the ache, deeply, integrate it into your being, it is your path. It will liberate you and you'll be more able to help those of a similar vibration.

Hi Katie,

I have had relatively few incarnations here and whilst I may not have all the answers for you but I truly empathise.

At times I slip into a transcended state and remember myself as if I am made entirely of a translucent substance (similar to water). It actually happened last night, as if I was water, flowing like an ocean, making up my whole body and field. Swimming dolphins also formed of the glistening 'water' through me. There was no difference between I and they. This is much closer to a state that I can recognise as 'home' Until recently memories like this made me feel incredibly home sick.

The only way I have ever eased the pain was to accepted my current humanness. It's difficult when you don't feel as if you belong here. But when I did, I felt a much greater infusion of that which truly inspires me into my experience here. Accepting our humanness, all of our frailties as well as our gifts, allows our purpose to come into being. Then we can find alignment. Then the ache lessens.

The ache is there to make sure you don't fall into complacency. It is there to remind you who you truly are. It's not about escaping this reality but rather trusting that you have exactly the right circumstances in order to be exactly who you need to be.

Hi ,
I can completely resonate with your sense of not belonging here and feeling a kind of cosmic ache.I can also relate to the dolphin energy. I am sure I was once a dolphin and a cat. To me being human is something I am learning to be and it is not easy by any means or familiar!!!
For me on my diverging journey of discovering wholeness (and acceptance of my humanness,if it is of any help) is about choosing to look into my humaness and what we are reflecting with the world and what the world is reflecting back and uncloaking the truth of who we truly are.
Whatever that may be.....

For me it has been about fear of seeing what we truly are in our polarity of opposites. We are here it seems to experience the balance between the polarity of opposites,of polaric energies,earth, sky,sun/moon,dark/light soul/body, female /male and the challenge as humans I think is to have a core balance between the spirit and ego.....
and refrain from judgemnent and allow authentic beigness to come into being for growth and expansion outwards.....

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

I can empathise with what you describe. It feels like it will maybe get 'easier' and less of a focus in our awareness after a time. I'm not sure that feeling will necessarily vanish though, because there's a reason for it at this time, but perhaps an identification with it will.

It made me contemplate what it is about and that perhaps there's an attuning to a higher paradigm/potential and then, having a sense of that, a sort of holding that up as a comparison to the world at this time. So understandably the 3d world may feel/appear challenging to be in after that, especially if one hasn't 'been here' very often. And naturally you may not feel it so strongly in meditative states or higher vibrational environments. It feels like there's an authenticity in attuning to the sense of lightness/higher paradigm, but at the same time to hold it lightly - so not be too attached to it, or trying to create it. and at the same time in a sense 'finding' that quality through the denser (3d) world. As the others have expressed in different ways.

I feel a connected thread through these responses which feels very peaceful - thank you

I re-read these pointers a few times and Trinity what a wonderful transcended experience - that relates.

Also Teresa 'to experience the polarity of opposites' makes sense to me, probably a very unique and potent universal experience.

and Ben attuning to the higher paradigm and holding it lightly feels important to grasp, kind of like letting it infuse and then letting it go/keep it light and don't let the mind play with it?

Something that comes up is - The ache which feels like it's from the deepest depths of my core (the only thing i know to be real/true sometimes) yearns for me to be somewhere else - another atmosphere/form - an alternative dimension. But it seems that the parallel experiences within are just as they are and really it's expanding beyond any notion of home and belonging - maybe the ache sincerely guides us within, through and back to centre...source. Oh which looking back is just what Chris and Trinity said
