English is not my native language. I write simple, but I try to share important thing. Please be patient with my grammar.

This is from shamanic session I did with subject I call Omar. He is adult man from Houston area. During healing soul journey, he dropped into theta brainwave trance. Past childhood. Past trauma. All way to before he was born.

What he found there was not what anyone expect.

Before incarnation, Omar and his mother were together. No bodies. No space between them. Just consciousness. He describe it like this: "Like there's no separation and there's no space. I feel more like a blob than anything else." She was close, another node of awareness next to him.

Then he saw something like checklist. Experiences this life would bring. Weakness. Helplessness. Hard things. And he did not want to go.

He said: "I don't think I want to go." It will be difficult.

But then he undrestood that this is how light expands into darkness and help others. "It feels like it's a required experience." His Higher Self showed him why. The point was not to fix anything. The point was to understand. "It's not for changing. It's for understanding." You can study suffering from outside. But you only know it by living it.

His mother agreed on soul level to play the harsh role. Her mission was to make him tough enough for this world. She did it. But there was cost. Some beings volunteer for dark roles. Not because they are evil. Because the plan requires it.

When we finished, Higher Self had simple message. "Love everyone. Let go. Learn to forgive."

The Lesson

You chose this life. Even the painful parts. Not because you deserve suffering, but because before incarnating you wanted to understand something that can only be learned through direct experience. The people who hurt you may have been volunteers too. This does not excuse what happened. But it can change how you carry it.

Practical Exercise

Find quiet place where nobody will disturb you for twenty minutes. Sit or lie down, whatever is comfortable. Close eyes.

Take five slow breaths. On each exhale, let your body get heavier. Feel the weight of your arms, your legs, your head sinking into whatever supports you.

Now imagine you are standing at the edge of a vast, dark space. Not scary dark. More like the dark before stars were born. Warm. Infinite. This is the space before incarnation. Before body. Before name.

Step into it. Let yourself float. There is no ground, no direction. Just awareness.

Ask silently: "Show me the moment before I came here."

Do not force anything. Let image, feeling, or knowing come on its own. Maybe you see light. Maybe you feel presence of other beings near you. Maybe you sense a decision being made. Maybe you feel reluctance, like something inside you did not want to go. That is okay. Just observe.

If you see or feel something, stay with it. Do not analyze. Do not judge. Just be there, like you are watching a memory that is older than your body.

When you feel ready, take three slow breaths and come back. Open eyes slowly. Write down whatever you got, even if it make no sense. Especially if it make no sense. The logical mind will try to explain it away. Let it be strange.

Do this for seven days in row. First time you may see nothing. That is normal. The door opens when you stop knocking so hard. By day three or four, something usually surface. A feeling, a image, a knowing that was not there before. Trust it.

English not my native, so I write simple. Sorry if something wrong.

I do soul journey sessions where people go deep and meet Higher Self. And I see this pattern very often - someone comes with anxiety, depression, feeling of never belonging. They have good life on paper. But inside is empty and scared. They not know why.

What I found is - the reasons are not always from this life.

I had session recently with woman. Lets call her Helen. She came because she felt anxious all the time. Depressed. Afraid of being alone. She felt she never belongs anywhere.

When she went deep, she found herself as a little girl. But not in this life. She was in a past life, maybe 200 years ago. Her name was Malayla. She was around five years old, barefoot in green grass, wearing a green skirt, carrying a leather bag with pebbles. She was lost in a forest near her village.

The forest had wolves. She was scared. She had run away from home because she was upset.

As the session unfolded, we saw her whole life. At 23 she married a good man - but she did not love him. She went through with it because it was tradition. At 35 her mother died. The man left her later. She raised children alone. At 93 she died poor and skinny.

in the afterlife, her husband appeared and said he loved her. He forgave her. He told her she was okay as she was. The guilt she carried was not about leaving him. It was about marrying him without real love. He wanted her to know she was forgiven. Her mother came too. Malayla told her mother she loved her - something she never said in life.

So what does this have to do with anxiety and depression now?

Higher Self explained that Helen carries the memory of all those separations. Leaving the village as a child. Losing father early. Marriage without love. Mother dying. Husband leaving. Dying alone. Each separation created a wound in her energy system.

When she came into this life, those wounds made her afraid. Afraid to be alone. Afraid to trust. Afraid to belong - because every time she belonged in that past life, she lost it.

The depression was linked to stopping the things she loves. In the past life, she stopped doing what made her alive. In this life, she stopped surfing, stopped being outside, stopped connecting with nature. Same pattern repeating.

The hip pain she had? It was not the hip. Higher Self said it was a broken heart wound from the past life manifesting as this pain.

Healing was not instant. Higher Self used white light to reprogram the anxiety. Golden light for the hip and heart. But the main instruction was simple: return to what restores the heart. Nature. Water. Warmth. Doing what she loves. Letting people in slowly.

The lesson here is - if you feel anxious or depressed and you not know why, maybe the reason is not from today. Maybe it is from another life or your childhood events you forgot. The feeling of never belonging, the fear of being alone, the sadness that has no cause in this life - it can be a memory your body carries from somewhere else.

The healing is not to fight the feeling. Is to feel it and understand where it comes from. And then to show your body that now is different. Now you are safe. Now you can trust.

If this resonates, try this simple exercise:

Sit somewhere quiet. Close your eyes. Take three deep breaths.

Imagine you are standing in a misty forest, like Malayla did. You feel lost and scared. But now you are not a child. You are adult and you have light in your hands.

Look down at your heart. See if there is a cord or chain attached to it - something old, maybe from another time. Do not pull it. Just place your hand over it. Say out loud or inside: "I see you. I am not there anymore. I am here now, and I am safe."

Then imagine golden light coming from the sky into your heart. Let it fill the old wound. Stay like this for 5-10 minutes.

Do this every night before sleep for 2 weeks. The body needs time to learn that the old story is over.

Hope it helps. Take care.

You have been told that the imagination is a faculty for making things up. This is a lie.

The imagination is not just fantasy. The imagination is a perceptual organ.

Henry Corbin, the great scholar of Islamic theosophy, recovered a lost term: the mundus imaginalis, the imaginal world. Not the imaginary (unreal), not the intellectual (abstract), but a real intermediate realm, as real as the physical world, accessible only through active imagination.

In the traditions of Iran, this realm is called Nâ-Kojâ-Abâd, the “country of nowhere.” It is a place with extension, color, and form, yet not located in physical space. The prophets and sages traveled there. The mystics and theurgists still do.

Giordano Bruno understood this. For him, the imagination was not a passive mirror of the senses; it was a magical engine. To imagine was to act. To form an image in the mind was to shape the cosmos.

The artist knows this instinctively. When you draw, you do not “make up” a figure; you bring forth a form that was already present in the imaginal. Your hand merely traces what your inner eye has seen.

The theurgist goes further. He learns to incubate images, to invite them, to purify the vessel so that the imaginal can descend. This is ontological engineering.

The dream is the gateway. In sleep, the pneuma loosens from the body and walks the imaginal world. The symbols you see are not random; they are the language of that world, so pay attention...

The gatekeepers of modern thought have told you that the imagination is unreal. They did this because the imaginal world cannot be controlled by priests, politicians, or scientists. It is the realm of direct revelation. It renders intermediaries obsolete, it totally depends on the strength of the practitioner and their own creativity.

Magic is not about commanding spirits. It is about aligning with the imaginal. The purified soul becomes a mirror, and the imaginal reflects itself in that mirror.

The image becomes a telesma. The telesma becomes a door.
