One of my beloved clients told me this week, with both curiosity and trepidation, about how there is going to be all this light coming onto the planet in October. A dear friend of mine has also sent me a video about a big cosmic light event coming later this month. The overlap of these two events inspired me to write this blog.

Despite all the rah-rah that goes on collectively and the repetitive excitement about such cosmic light events, I have an additional, alternative, and perhaps conflicting perspective that comes as a kind of warning to those of you on the path. This is specifically aimed at those of you who value the stability of your awakening, your Sensitivity, and those who prioritise their Sovereignty.

If you scroll through the internet or social media feeds about these cosmic light events, it sounds something like this:

“BIG LIGHT IS COMING! Wave your Dazzling Pom Poms!”
“Quick! Open your crown chakra to it!”
“Don’t miss out! This is ascension magic! You could accelerate!”

I am sure you know what I mean. On and on it goes….

It is exciting, yes, but note that it is exceedingly and one-sidedly positive. 

There is no mention of potential side effects. If you were to take this advice unheeded and unquestioned, you might find yourself in trouble. 

So after that conversation with my client, I thought I would like to share some tips with you, too, because nothing is ever only positive. Remember: Anything that comes into our system has to be digested, has to be aligned and has to be meaningful for us. 

Let’s start with  —

❇️ What is a Cosmic/Galactic Light Event?

According to some, these are “joyously celebrative times” when enormous amounts of energy, light, and consciousness flow onto the planet, triggered by astrological events, seasonal changes, or what are called portal days, such as Lionsgate on August 8th (8/8), and any days when there is a repetition of numbers.

On these particular days, the doorways between realms can be thinner or consciously more open for a variety of reasons, and large amounts of light from galaxies or other dimensions can flow onto the planet. This light can carry programming, instructions, codes, conditioning, healing, and/or expansion. This light can be elevating. It can be all the concentrated positivity that these promoters highlight.

However, what I have noticed on Social Media is the general implication that you should guzzle it all up — put your mouth close to the cosmic-light hydrant and receive it all into your expanding sensitive system, making sure to take in every drop. FOMO all ’round.

This becomes a contradiction as the tendency to guzzle overrides the reasons for the abundance of light. Like true capitalists in the West, we encourage each other to “Go for it!” or “Take it all!” without focusing on gentle reflection on the following questions:

• Do I need any more energy in my system right now? Is that right or healthy for me?
• Am I, in fact, going OK, and don’t need any extra external assistance, no matter how available it is? There is often a lack of encouragement to invite you to see that you are already progressing quite nicely, thank you very much. And progressing well all on your own steam. (If this is you, then – Well done! Keep going, you do not need “more input” or more pressure.)
• Am I having a hard time managing the amount of energy already in my system, and allowing more energy might actually make things worse? 
• If I do open to this energy, how can I manage it and make sure I am not overwhelmed by it?

Another way to be aware is by tuning into your warning signs. Be alert to these responses:

Are you buzzing, unable to sleep, or feeling like a pressure cooker?
Are you feeling pushed out of your body? Or going into trauma responses because you are in your nature, sensitive to intensity?

These are strong clues that you are not aligned with what is arriving. 

What bamboozles me all the time, because they are overlooked, are actually the most important issues to investigate. The practical and essential questions that anyone going through Awakening and Ascension should be curious about or be encouraged to ask are: 

Is this energy aligned FOR me? Is this energy aligned TO ME?
Is it aligned with my path?
Is it necessary at this time for me to take this in? 

Not Every Light Is Yours to Receive

Remember, when you are on an awakening and ascension path, or even simply sensitive, every day the way you live your life, and in order to live it well while evolving, is to ask yourself the question for everything you do: Is this aligned for me?

You may find that frequently the answer is No. The things that are aligned are fewer and fewer, but the things that are aligned are exquisitely aligned, and deeply beneficial.

As we awaken, we are tasked to make sure we make good choices, so the question “Is this aligned for me?” is incredibly important.

None of the rah-rah about Cosmic Light invites you to ask this question.

So, my dear friends who are bravely and valiantly on an awakening path in this complicated time on the planet, I encourage you to ask these questions: Is it aligned? Do I need it?

And if you get the answer, “No”, then please heed it!

It is vital to know that much of this light that floods onto the planet often comes with preprogramming or coding that is not aligned with you. This kind of ascension energy programming is generalized. It means it’s not necessarily specifically or gently tailored to you. Such generalized energy may put demands on your systems to follow it. It may bring pressure, alternative directions, and coded instructions that you do not need. Maybe you have even surpassed those coded instructions, and therefore, you are repeating something you have already done on your growth path.

⚠️ Cosmic Light Events: Handle with Care

Currently, there is a lot of energy coming to this planet because we are in an urgent situation, which suggests that you need to have even more caution. Ask yourself: Do I need to take more in right now? Do I need more demands on my system right now? Do I need to be pressured to accomplish more? Can I sit this one out, knowing that there will be more opportunities ahead? 

It is important to remember you are here to be a sovereign being and that taking in light and energy which has been guided by and is full of collective intentions – with seemingly abundant opportunities – may not be aligned with your sovereignty and may therefore interfere with it. In sessions, I have had to remove this energy, light and coding from people’s systems because it is overworking them, cooking their energy, or agitating their Kundalini. It is overwhelming their functionality and leaving them feeling unable to cope. Or even worse, it has pushed them off their path and burdened them.

Finally, on a seriously cautious note: in the background of all the abundant light flowing onto the planet, remember it is also good timing for dark energy to find its way onto the planet, concealed in this. It is a time where the general public and especially light workers, healers, and those going through Awakening, and Sensitive ones, can experience serious and sometimes life-shaping attacks. Darkness can be hidden in the brightness of light. If you are deeply open and wildly receiving or even receiving with unawareness, please know that you may take in more than you bargained for. 

There is also something I call “fake light” that can arrive with the Cosmic light. It can give you the sense of ascension while in fact, you are really going in circles. It gives you a sense of growth with endless “processing,” but in fact, you are not progressing. It is a diversion path from your true awakening.

Call me an anti-capitalist, at the moment, I can take it (!), but keep in mind that sometimes the abundance is meant for the larger field, not only the individual. Honor that, too, as these energies bless us with their presence here on earth. And err on the side of caution. You and your Awakening are precious! 

Ask some serious questions. Take your wellbeing seriously. Remember, you can tune down and turn off your receptivity to the Cosmic Light using the power of your own clear intention, asking for protection and even shielding yourself.

Know that it is always okay to turn off your availability to excessive Cosmic Light.
