I'm Annie Breglia and I'm on a mission to help heal the planet one soul at a time. The ancient way. The way of the shaman.

Dark Night?

by 8hummingbirdway

Recently I wrote about Arcturus, the sun of the Arcturian people.

Currently I have been reading The Hidden Keys of Arcturian Awakening. It’s written for people who are on a path of understanding more about the culture, knowledge, orientation and practices of this species, who perhaps I originated with – or spent time with during other lifetimes.

This week I read the following about an aspect of the spiritual journey called “The Dark Night of the Soul,” a human concept that is shared by extra-terrestrial species.

During this time or stage, individuals often experience:


-A sense of emptiness or loss of meaning.
-Intense questioning of long-held beliefs.
-Emotional turbulence: grief, fear, or loneliness.
-A longing for “something more,” though undefined.

Just as a seed must crack open before the
sprout can grow, the human soul must often pass
through darkness before it remembers its light.

The dark night strips away what is false so that what is real can finally be seen.

I previously mentioned the dark night of the soul. Comparing that experience to where I currently stand, I must rescind the label of my brief experience in May. Perhaps it was a harbinger of what was to come.

More recently, I have been confronted with several challenges of a personal nature.

  • My very way of being was challenged. I was forced to reconsider my priorities, my goals, my established situation in this life I live.
  • I faced an adversary of an uncaring nature who held power over me briefly.
  • I was able to move past paralysis and discomfort and trust myself to respond in a way that was true to myself and my path.
  • Close family members took a stand together against a choice I made. I was pushed away and distanced, then was censored …not allowed to speak about it.
  • I didn’t respond well, felt disoriented. I alienated someone I love significantly.
  • I was brought by life to question myself, prior choices that landed me where I am. Can I trust life to hold me despite a significant upset?
  • I found myself mired in sorrow and self-questioning.
  • Can I trust myself? Where does my balance reside? How do I recover? What is truly at stake and what is truly important?

I have been struggling to regain wellbeing and balance, to trust myself to navigate through these experiences, through a significant feeling of loss.

I am feeling a deep sadness.

I am struggling to feel supported by life during this time of uncertainty.

Here is a continuation of what I am reading:

Though painful, the dark night is ultimately a gift. It teaches surrender. It invites humility.
And most importantly, it opens the heart to the presence of guidance — whether through dreams, synchronicities, or subtle impressions of spiritual support.
In many accounts, those who endure this stage emerge with greater clarity, compassion, and resilience. They realize that the darkness was not an enemy but a teacher, preparing them for the path of awakening ahead.

I do feel a greater humility …but I have not fully surrendered. I feel a fight within me, resisting the full surrender to the spiritual support that I know is all around me.

What more is at risk?

I am willing to continue the walk of awakening …as the path is shown to me.

I am open to surrender, but do not know the steps.

Bereft

by 8hummingbirdway

Last week I saw a young man a few feet away from me just getting off his bike when I came out of the supermarket. He was wearing a black t-shirt with a very angry and profane message in large white letters. I felt compelled to talk with him.

I went to my car to drop my groceries and returned to ask him why he was angry.

He answered me in a very polite way. He explained that he was homeless, had just reached the end of his time at a shelter, and hadn’t been aware of having to leave before this day.

I talked to him more and learned that he is 21, had spent time in jail and was a recovering addict.

I realized that monetary assistance was not a good idea.

With his permission, I took a photo of him and he gave me a beautiful smile.

I have experience with addicts …and I have compassion for this life experience, especially in the young.

After saying goodbye and driving off, I realized I could have offered him a meal, talked with him more. I circled back a few minutes later, but he was gone.

I felt remorse for not having thought of offering some food.

This encounter unsettled me quite a bit. I prayed for him.

I was glad I had at least spoken to him with concern and respect.

Arcturus and Arcturians; what we know …and more

by 8hummingbirdway

Arcturus is the 4th brightest star in our galaxy. This giant star, part of the constellation of Boötes, outshines our sun 100 times.

The handle of The Big Dipper points to Arcturus.

Arcturus is 36.7 light years away from Earth.

The Inuit people know Arcturus by two names, Uttuqalualuk (“old man”) and Sivulliik (“the first ones”).

I have read publications that claim Arcturian origins. They mention planets of Arcturus, and a single culture of beings that reside throughout these planets.

Planets that orbit Arcturus have not as yet been detected by humanity.

From Wikipedia: By 1928, Arcturus had become part of the teachings of  Edgar Cayce, an American  psychic. The star Arcturus was mentioned by Cayce in more than 30 of his psychic readings. He described Arcturus as a “gateway” to higher realms of consciousness that can have a profound effect on people’s lives. Cayce called the Arcturians the most advanced community in the universe, the community most similar to the divine.

I have been exploring concepts, ideas, meditations and practices from materials that claim to have origins in Arcturian wisdom, as well as other extra-terrestrial origins. I have found them to be helpful and compelling. They bring forth thought-provoking and expansive concepts and understandings about the time we are living in, about the wisdom of the human body, about our human ancestry, about the human heart, about healing, frequency and much more.

I have been deeply impacted by what I’ve read and considered. I am experiencing personal growth as a result of my exposure to new concepts and partaking in the expansive and healing exercises offered.

I expect to share specifics about what I am learning in future posts.

It is my understanding that Arcturians are significantly “less dense” than humans, meaning that they do not have a physical body in the way that we do. It has taken me some time to come to terms with this possibility.

Many of us have no problem with an invisible God, invisible angels …and also less elevated beings of invisibility, such as beings of malevolence.

But we are stop there. It is a big adjustment to accept the possibility of extra-terrestrials at all, let alone those of less density.

Have you ever met people who saw ghosts … or fairies as a child …or had invisible friends?

I have come to believe that the human visual spectrum will naturally expand in the future …to allow for the perception of those who are less dense.

Just one of many changes as we move forward.

Presence

by 8hummingbirdway

I recently learned that the highest gift I can provide to each day, each moment, each person is simply to be my truest self … in presence.

I am not a showy or dazzling person. I never have been.

Some people are, and I have sometimes felt less because I don’t have that fun quality, that pizazz, that quality of noticeableness that is socially engaging …makes others aware of me …want to engage or find out about me.

I tend to blend in, to simply be.

I used to be uncomfortable at gatherings because I tended to stand or sit alone.

I’m not a brilliant conversationalist, nor can I remember the punchline of a joke.

But I can be – simply, honestly, humbly, and loyally …myself.

My stepson once told me I was “genuine.” I knew it was a high honor …coming from him.

The words I do offer are honest.

I can listen, hear another, understand their story or message. I can receive what they are saying and respond in a down-to-earth way. Sometimes a touch …a nod …or simply a presence that I can provide.

Recently I have come to be increasingly grateful to be simply myself.

Billie Jean (not her name)

by 8hummingbirdway

I had a house cleaning business for 10 years, back in CT – over 25 years ago, after a 5 year stint at being a programmer/analyst. (Not my world.)

I started out cleaning on my own and then slowly hired others to work for me. I paid them well and gave them raises when they were fully trained. They came and went. I loved them all in various ways, except maybe Trudy (not her name) who didn’t clean well – always failed the house checks. No idea why I couldn’t bring myself to fire her. I generally only fired people who were horrible – or who stole from clients as Lana did. It was a bummer to fire her. I fired another woman who looked through clients’ drawers during training. And a man who didn’t work out due to attitude and ability/willingness.

I was good at cleaning, hiring, and training. Iris, Eleanor, Billie Jean, Lana and Leigh Ann were the best cleaners – as good as or better than me. I really enjoyed Iris and I think of her from time to time …wish we were still in touch. She was a bright light. She recommended her friend, M (I can never remember her name) – who was very distant, but I had a good feeling about her. I think she was wary of employers, or maybe white people – probably for good reason. M didn’t last long. She got pregnant and invited me to her baby shower. It felt awkward but felt I should go. I realize now that she probably hoped for a substantial gift. I wasn’t loaded, we didn’t own our home, pretty much lived hand to mouth, no savings. I should have had savings by the standards of others, but I never learned to focus on money. (My dad was well-to do, but not happy.) Anyway, she probably thought we were rich, as bosses tend to be (maybe). The baby shower was very awkward. Very proper, and staid – good manners for my benefit. I knew it would have been a lot more fun without my presence and I never did understand until today why I had been invited. (Sorry, M.)

Last night I dreamed of Billie Jean, and everyone else flowed in. An abundance of warm memories.

In the dream I visited her. I was in her kitchen. I was glad to see her. (I do think about her from time to time.) She offered me guidance – several bits of advice about how to manage life – I’m not sure why. I thanked her for her advice and caring.

Her daughter came into the kitchen, still a child. She said (or I knew somehow) that she had always looked up to and admired me, though I think I met her only once or twice – and we just said hi.

In life, I had never been to Billie Jean’s home. I was not opposed to friendships with the cleaners (Eleanor was a friend) but I had 2 young children who kept me busy. [For the last 5 years of the cleaning, I could afford to stay home with them for the most part.]

The story of Billie Jean is that she was low key, humble, and a great cleaner. I paid a few of the women a bit more and she was one of them. She ran the business for me when I was away – washed and dried the cleaning rags, opened/locked my house if I wasn’t there, dealt with any issues, called me if needed. I would pay her additionally during those times.

At one point my family went on a one-month road trip, and I left Billie Jean at the helm. She learned the combination to the safe that cleaners dropped the day’s payments into, and she made the deposits into my bank account. I will forever be grateful to her. I had a wonderful trip and no concerns on the home/business front.

Later on, I found money missing once. Then again. After the 2nd time, I called Billie Jean into a private room when she returned from her day’s work …and confronted her. I had racked my brain and there was no other explanation. She admitted taking the money. She cried, and said she was in a terrible financial situation, explained it to me. She was behind on several bills and didn’t know what to do.

I was able to help her. Happily, I sat on a committee in our small city that granted funds to individuals or families who had a one-time financial crisis. I advised her to go a few months without paying and then apply to this organization for help. And she did. And she got the help.

This the only time I used the committee to get help for someone I knew, and I’m glad I did. She deserved help, and in truth, not many people knew about the available funds.

When I decided to move to NY, I foolishly left my 16-year-old in charge of my business. (She refused to leave CT, and the laws there allow 16-year-olds to get legally emancipated.) Long story short, it didn’t work out.

Clients started falling away, and I asked Billie Jean if she would take ownership of all the equipment, the remaining clients, etc. We agreed that she would pay me $50/month for some amount of time, but after a year she stopped paying me.

I wasn’t angry. I was surviving. I was glad for any service she could provide the clients who had trusted me with their homes.

I wasn’t able to reach her and tell her that. I didn’t know her address. (My daughter had brought the equipment to her.) I felt she carried guilt about this. It bothered me.

More than 10 years later, I finally was able to message her on Facebook. I learned that she had a surprise late-in-life pregnancy and stopped or slowed cleaning houses, worked as a janitor somewhere. It would have been nice if she had communicated with me, but she was never big on words.

And I have to trust life. Perhaps I wouldn’t have responded well. I wasn’t thrilled initially.

It was nice to see her in the dream. I tried today to check in but wasn’t able to send another message to her. I did send prayers of wellbeing and love and hope.

I am coming to understand some things

by 8hummingbirdway

1) The knowledge developed by one extra-terrestrial species is often utilized by many. There are a variety of types of beings in our greater reality, and they cooperate, respect each other, share technology, wisdom, healing modalities and techniques, and probably much more. Rather than fighting and competing, they share and assists others …expanding and growing together in harmony.

These beings are joining forces to help us and our planet. It is a very complex operation and has taken many years to bring forth.

2) It has become clear to me that some individuals have expansive histories. The souls of some beings, including some of those living on Earth now, have spent lifetimes as a variety of beings …their souls entering specific various beings within specific civilizations …lifetime after lifetime.

3) Some species do not experience death. They simply continue on. The healing technology available is phenomenal.

4) Some species do not have physical bodies in the way we do.

5) There are galactic rules that all beings in this galaxy honor and abide by.

The more I come to understand, the more questions arise:

  • What about beyond our galaxy?
  • What about the “bad guys?” (I don’t hear about them often in my studies, but I sense that some species don’t always follow the rules and do not share the values of #1 above)
  • What about accidental death?
  • If death is rare, how does one fully experience being another species?
  • How did the soul of starseeds become available to incarnate on Earth?
  • How do beings “hold together” or experience the beingness of themselves without a physical body?

There are more points of discussion – information, questions.

I have come to understand that most everything has consciousness – a blade of grass, our sun, each planet. How are we to understand this?

I have experienced the love of the Earth. Love coming FROM the Earth. You can experience it too – in the Unity Breath meditation by Drunvalo Melchizedek. https://youtu.be/CKy_uEj0mPY?si=xVPLJoywA5irkrEj

I have journeyed to the Sun, the Earth, and other beings in my shamanic practice, and have communicated with them. It didn’t seem strange in the shamanic context (no stranger than anything else I was learning) …but now …coming to understand that everything has a consciousness …it’s a lot to absorb.

I will leave you to ponder…
