Episode 452: Navigating the Collective Void
09/04/2025 Duración: 16minLink to iBooks http://books.apple.com/us/book/id6744105194I realise the part that is causing me extreme pain is that I am experiencing what the collective is doing - and it's a massive death - a much more painful journey than the one of simply not fitting in ... I guess it's harder for parts of yourself for die than it is to have never signed up ... I have done this journey for 3 months before a massive shift that has taken place in the collective ... I haven't found anywhere I have the desire to speak ... my wish list is to know someone to speak with who can reflect to me where I begin and end so I suffer less in these collective experiences .... I have yet to find anyone who actually takes impressions through their body ... Some of these have helped me to be unfragmented myself in what people experiencehttps://www.youtube.com/@spiritualodyssey-01https://www.youtube.com/@spiritualfrequency001?si=NyjqF2LAUuvq8zb_
