Sometimes when we experience a rapid higher energy influx, our bodies can experience tingling or even nausea. And often sleeplessness or a miriad of other symptoms as well.

At one of my earliest power journeys in 1993 I was in a circle of some 20 amazing women in Vermont. While performing a deep humanity healing ritual for the native americans who lost their land at that spot  I suddenly felt this incredibly powerful, strong and literal energy coming over and up into my left foot from the Earth.

Strong. Vibrating, pulsing and dense, it buzzed and poured into my foot, not a tingling at all, but a very dense, buzzing energy that slowly, slowly surrounded and filled my foot, then slowly, slowly travelled up through my ankle and up my left shin to envelop the whole of my lower left leg including my knee. Then it just vibrated the whole of my lower leg for several minutes… while I felt pleasantly stunned.

Then I felt it slowly, slowly travel back down through my knee, shin, ankle and foot, and gently back into the Earth. There was a brief pause. A few moments. And then the buzzing began around my right foot. And the same thing happened on my right side.

These unusual moments I rarely discuss. But I am sharing them here today as many of us have also been experiencing a rapid shifting in our own healings and consciousness processes.

I am also recalling an experience I had in 1995 while meeting AmmaJi for the first time. The Divine Mother now also known as the hugging Saint. She was giving Darshan to hundreds of people in Santa Fe. I went to “hug” her for the Darshan, (she rocks you in her big generous arms and gently chants “ma-ma, ma-ma” to you, at least she did to me) and later that day, I began to vomit. It was somehow wonderful! I remember a friend coming by and bringing me some divine miso soup. I threw up for the next 3 days as I purged.  I had run into some friends later that first night, the night of the darshan… they had also been throwing up! (we were laughing and crying at the same time.)

Ascension symptoms, or periods of rapid energy shifting, are a combination of purging the old and attenuating our physical bodies to the new, higher energies or consciousness.

Are you experiencing symptoms of your vibration rising rapidly? With the countdown to 2012 upon us, many people are.

Karen Bishop writes extensively on this subject. Here is an excerpt from her work:

The Grander Plan, and How Are We Connected and Affected?

The end of 2008 marked a very pivotal point in the ascension process. Up until that time, we evolved in small and continual steps, although at times it did not feel like it! In this way, we completed one chapter of a new book, or rather released much our old lives and old selves, and always moved into another chapter. The end of 2008 marked the completion of an entire book…not just a chapter. This was a monumental time in our spiritual evolutionary process. Enough of the masses had reached a point of critical mass, were then embodying or residing in the space that those who had gone first had been holding, and it was then time for an entirely new book or dimensional residency to occur.

This new book was most certainly new for each and every rung on the ascension ladder…meaning that everyone moved up into a higher level according to where they had been residing before. The ascension process involves many periods of “waiting” for the masses to catch up until we can ourselves progress onto another rung. So then, you may be one who has progressed far and was very tired of waiting! When we are waiting, it can feel that we are trapped, boxed in, or perhaps surrounded by darker and denser energies knocking on our door. But with the advent of the end of 2008, the waiting is now over. Those who had gone before had been waiting for a very long time indeed!

Where are we now?

Where are they now? Where have those who had been holding the space for the masses gone? We have gone to a very new space and new reality of becoming Earth Angels. We have stretched, moaned and groaned, complained, and become weary of it all until the very end…and the very end of this massive first phase has brought us to a new beginning which is now here.

Our New Symptoms and How We have Evolved

Have you lost your desire to be a healer?

Have you felt in recent months that the energy you used to embody is no longer there?

Do you wonder what you are now supposed to connect to and wonder how to connect as well?

Do you suddenly feel that your life is “here” and not back “home” somewhere?

Have you given up any desires to save anyone or anything and only simply desire to stay put without extending?

Have you given up belonging to groups and continually discussing spiritual matters?

Have you discontinued meditating, “clearing,” and intentional actions involving creating, moving energy, or consulting divination sources?

Have you lost the desire to bring up the energy of the planet, heal it, or the like?

Do you no longer have the urge to make anything happen by yourself?

Are you tired of being alone when it never bothered you before, and now crave the companionship of another or others?

Is your own personal energy more “subtle” than it used to be?

Do you often feel invisible when you go out in public?

Are your needs frequently met with ease, with no real effort on your part? Or rather, are you rarely lacking anything?

Have you begun setting strong boundaries and find that you are not as “open” to everything and everyone as you used to be?

Have you grown to appreciate the small things and find that you are not so interested in material possessions, getting what you want, or having to have things a certain way?

Have you come to realize that everything is not about you, that the behavior of others has nothing to do with you, and thus, you no longer take things personally?

Do you put yourself first in regard to your health and happiness?

Are you now comfortable refusing to participate in things that feel very “wrong” to you?

Is it easy for you to close the door on others, knowing that you need not be “nice” and accommodating when interacting with them was not your idea in the first place?

Do you feel a peace and tranquility that you had rarely experienced in the past, and do you now feel safe and protected?

Are you ready to retire?

Do you notice much more of what is around you, instead of what is going on within you?

Do you easily and clearly see others and what they are here to contribute? Do you acknowledge them and connect to them easily when appropriate?

Are you aware of the whole, can you interact in groups without taking over or discounting the contribution and gifts of others, and can you allow others to become involved without having a “don’t tell me what to do” or controlling attitude?

Have you come to realize than nothing needs to be “fixed” and never did? Have you dis-continued offering your services when you were not even asked (and this includes being asked by nature and the planet herself as well)?

Do you find the answers within yourself now, rarely consulting any outside sources?

Do you know that you are not perfect and never will be?

Do you possess a great gift or ability, are frequently told about this by others, but have no idea what they are talking about?

Are you comfortable watching another suffer, knowing that this is their path and that it has a higher purpose?

Are you able to make decisions from your gut, your intuition, or rather what simply “feels” right without any rational explanation?

Do you know what is yours to do, and realize that much
everything else is someone else’s passion or purpose, there-by staying in your own role and not taking over someone else’s?

Have you found that you spend more of your time and focus simply on one of your passions or talents, and not on a variety of interests as you may have done in the past?

If you can relate any of the above, you are most certainly on your way to becoming an Earth Angel. But know as well, that these transitions come to us step by step. This is what evolution is all about. So then, you may be experiencing some of the above, but not all. In time, you will eventually experience most all of the above, and then find that you need to “wait” for others to catch up, as we are all part of one beloved whole. In addition, we will begin having exciting and new experiences as well!

If you are one who has not felt a big connection to Source or a higher vibration in ways that you had in the past, know that there is a good explanation. We have reached a place in our spiritual evolutionary process where we are embodying enough light now within ourselves. We have graduated. Thus, we are now ready to connect to each other. We are holding a very new space of light, through a grid-work of brothers and sisters, and our new connections are with our own souls and with each other now.

Welcome Earth Angels, to the next phase of our journey home….
