    As a young child I remember thinking that people were immature, although I don't believe I new that word, just understood the concept in my mind. I new I was to help humanity and mother earth. Nothing has changed over the years, I'm still persevering. Once while in deep meditation I decided to try and go back to my beginning . I found I was a misty orange cloud in the universe and felt very at peace there.
    I have come a long way since then. The journey is never over for us. Yes I fit your criteria as I'm sure many here at Project
    Avalon do also. Thanks for asking and for this thread. with love, Desire

    Labels ... Pffft! That said, I'm pretty sure I'm "not from around here" though ... We don't need to define ourselves; we are what we are, often showing in how we do things. "how we do" is infinitely more important than any labeled definition.
    When you are one step ahead of the crowd, you are a genius.
    Two steps ahead, and you are deemed a crackpot.

    Yes labels are divisive, they separate.
    Specialness is the last resort of the ego according to A Course in Miracles.

    The best definition of spirituality that I have read is "Find out who you are"
    That is your essential nature free of concepts, labels, self Identification----ie I am this or that.

    I am not a musician --thats a function--If I never played a musical instrument, at core --my true self would be just the same--persona is not what I am., body is not what I am.
    my name is not what I am.

    Thats just an opinion--smiling.

    Be kind to all life, including your own, no matter what!!

    For someone who is labeled weirdo as a child, i find it funny to label myself starseed, indigo, or else. Cos either way it separates people from other people while the true tasks of people is to live amongst people altogether. Meanwhile isolation and exclusivity is merely the same. As for me, it is better to think that you and me are the same, the difference is you walk on that side of the road and i am walking on this side, but we can still hold hands cos its still the same road we're walking on.
    Anyway, being a little OOT here, my cousin aged 7, is having interdimensional child criteria, she sees the unseen, creatures, people that have passed away, she could see people or situation that happens from miles away, if she wants something that her parents refused to give her she can send message to others and whoever catch the message will suddenly has the urge to bought her whatever she might want at the time (it happens within minutes and hours, not even a day pass) and after she woke up from sleep, she can tell us the situation that happened when she was asleep, cos she said she was watching from above like floating up on the ceiling, she also told her mom that every night when her mom thinks she was sleeping, she is not. She was wondering outside without her body. Her mom freaked out and brought her to a child pschycologist and they said that she is a right brain dominant child. Do you think it is a cause and effect? Which one is cause which one is effect? Thanks.

    Thank you, Anjani , for sharing with us. My eldest dau., now in her 50's, remembers "floating above" & looking down at the rest of us while we were living in an Aztec Indian village in Mexico. She would have been about 4 at the time. Many of us have been raised to pooh-pooh such ideas or just say they were "of the devil"! It is SO awesome to learn that we are already immortal spiritual beings with infinite power; a fact that has been kept from us by the "controllers".

    Thank you for sharing Foxie Loxie. Lucky my parents were experiencing pretty much the same thing so they were very open about it and accepting, they just dont realy want me to share about it to random people for my own protection because the society will not be as accepting as they are (it was late 80's when it started happening to me at age 4 or 5). And i agree with you, we are lucky in a way that we are easier to see the truth that some others. But it is a shame that those kind of power decrease as we grow older, as we become more matrealistic, i think (it happens to me every now and then, sometimes i thougt was gone already but whenever i was back on my spiritual track and became less materialistic, it came back).
    I hope you dont mind my asking but who are these controllers are you talking about? I am so clueless, im sorry.

    This article was quite helpful:

    http://www.reincarnatietherapie.com/...rnated-angels/

    One thing I often think to myself is that I kept my unity consciousness longer than most people. This can make it quite difficult in childhood/teenage years, if you keep your innocence for longer and you're not really fit for the survival games in this world.

    And I definitely found it hard to set limits for how other people could treat me, but that is one thing I've had to learn to do, and I'm quite good at self-defence now. I don't go in for attack, but at least I can defend myself.

    Anjani.....sorry to be vague....but it seems there has been a controlling influence on the human race for eons. You might look into the work of Zacariah Sitchen for a starter. There has been more going on on the earth than we can even imagine, but those who control us do not want us to know our real history. I like what Napoleon Bonaparte is purported to have said, "History is an agreed upon set of lies!" If you have never watched the videos from when Bill & Kerry first started covering whistleblowers, about 10 years ago, that is a good foundation upon which to start building your knowledge. Enjoy your voyage here on Avalon; it is a great place to learn what is REALLY going on in the Universe!

    Just thought I would share,

    There is a clinic here in my hometown, specialize in alternative healing and for indigo children treatment. They consult the child and mostly the parent on how to nurture and educate the child. In order for the child to not feel weird or be weirded with themselves. The consultant is a pschycology professor from one of the best university here.

    Anyway, one time I asked my aunt to go there with my niece so at least she will get thorough explanation from the expert about her child's condition, but she refuses (sometimes parents Just too afraid to the truth about their children, I don't know why). Skip to the future this aunt of mine caught a rare illness of suicidal headache, where there is no cure yet cos they haven't found the cause of it. The husband company doctor suggest her to go to this clinic I mentioned before to get alternative healing and after one time, she stopped coming cos she said that the treatment is funny and she thought that the clinic was fraud. They teaches her to meditate and focus is absorbing the positive energy and shoo away the negative (in her own words she said they asked me to sat down criscrossing my legs, close my eyes, breathe and focusing in embracing the positive energy with the hand movement and shooing the negative also with the hand movement). And she thought they are fraud. Lol. If only she knew, if only most people knew. I hinestly find it funny and sad at the same time.

    I disagree about labels being solely divisive. While they definitely can be divisive, I believe they have the potential to help you find your place in the universe. Since joining this community, I've learned more about myself than I have in many years. For years I felt lost and alien and didn't understand why I was so different to everybody. With the help of people in this community and talking with people like Mary Rodwell, I started to remember past lives (only very brief memories) and discovered I could heal people. Without these labels that contain characteristics, I wouldn't have even got in touch with Mary and learned about what I am (and what we all are).

    While I do feel special after all that I've learned, it isn't a feeling that I believe is an individual one. I feel special because I now know we are all equally special as we are part of/exist in a reality that is truly awesome to behold in its entirety. Is it not a special feeling to know we are all infinite as is all of existence? Understanding the connectedness is a truly wholesome and fear-liberating feeling.

    If there are such things as star-seeds-why would they be here, what use would they be?

    I am wondering if a higher soul connection assists one to see through the deceptions here, to imagine or manifest a better future, to have a stronger resistance to certain psychic forces, to anchor certain perceptions or vibrations into the human collective consciousness, that will assist all Humans.

    If it's true- then it's a privilege, but also an obligation and a work-sheet. OBLIGATION to the soul's intention for coming here, now...(and tools to explore that)
    Perhaps their purpose is to ask the questions that make others think; to introduce new, sometimes uncomfortable, ideas; to assist others along on their spiritual journey; and/or to help with the healing of spirit.

    We all have useful labels, a/k/a names for what we do. If you wanted medical advice, someone with the label of Doctor would be pretty handy. Likewise, if one is trying to connect with others who share a particular experience, how are they to find that group without a label? If a person feels excluded because they do not have the same experience as a particular group, then their focus is on the wrong thing. They should be looking for the group they do fit into so they can share information and grow with the support of others who can empathize.

    I think the problem with labels is that people sometimes use them when they don't want to face their true selves. Or, they forget the impermanence a label can have and then suffer an identity crisis if that label is removed, all because they have lost touch with the core of their being.

    Are you a starseed? Why some people believe they're aliens living on earth

    https://www.rte.ie/brainstorm/2023/0...s-space-earth/

    Opinion: what makes some people think they are starseeds and experiencing a sense that they must be from another planet?

    By Ken Drinkwater, Manchester Metropolitan University; Andrew Denovan, University of Huddersfield, and Neil Dagnall, Manchester Metropolitan University

    There's a new group of people on Earth who believe they're aliens. Star people, or starseeds, are individuals who believe they have come to Earth from other dimensions to help heal the planet and guide humanity into the "golden age" – a period of great happiness, prosperity and achievement.

    It might sound a little crazy but an internet search for the term brings up over four million results and there are scores of people posting videos on TikTok, Instagram and Facebook who believe they originate from another world. Indeed, content with the term #starseed has over 1 billion views on TikTok.

    Unlike "Earth souls", who are said to reincarnate on Earth, starseeds believe they have reawakened from another planet to be born here. Starseeds believe they are conduits between divine realms and the Earth and that they can transport between galaxies via meditation. Starseeds also believe they can communicate in "light language" – a form of communication that is said to bypass human limitations and be the language of the soul.

    From RTÉ Radio 1 Extra's Signs of Life, what would finding an advance alien civilisation could mean for us?

    The idea is widely credited to the author Brad Steiger who wrote prolifically about the unknown and was keenly interested in alien life and extraterrestrials. In his 1976 book, Gods of Aquarius, Steiger introduced his notion that some people originate from other dimensions.

    Believers claim there are several ways to tell if you are a starseed. These include searching for meaning in life and feeling a lack of belonging. Being spiritual and possessing a strong sense of intuition (knowing) are also qualities of a starseed.

    They are also said to be empathetic, sensitive and have more physical and mental health issues as their souls aren't used to having a human body. Starseeds want to help humanity. But they get overwhelmed by life on Earth and so recharge by spending time alone.

    From The Alchemist, are you a starseed?

    Believers also say that starseeds have the desire to explore and experience new cultures and spheres, which help star people to then provide novel insights into existence. Examples include new (conspiracy) theories about society, holistic health interventions along with thoughts on ancient aliens and civilisations.

    Choose your reality
    You might recognise some aspects of yourself in the above description. Many people, for example, report searching for meaning in life along with feeling displaced or like they don't belong at times.

    Indeed, research shows that a low sense of belonging is often linked to depression. But what makes some people who are experiencing such feelings jump to the conclusion that they must be from another planet? Particularly given that no life beyond Earth has ever been found and there is no evidence that alien life has ever visited Earth.

    From RTÉ Radio 1's Today With Claire Byrne, physicist Dr Shane Bergin from UCD on signs of alien life

    Welcome to the Forer effect. Named after Bertram Forer, the psychologist who first figured out that it was pretty easy to get people to agree with vague descriptions about themselves – see horoscopes. The concept of starseeds is a form of new age belief. The term refers to alternative spiritual practices that developed during the 1970s.

    Although each new age belief is different, philosophies share common features: they view existence in terms of the universe and focus on spirituality as well as the self. Think crystals, energy healing and psychic abilities. Other features include reincarnation, karma and the possibility of reaching a higher level of consciousness.

    Support for new age beliefs – such as starseeds – is on the rise. It comes from a distrust of science and doubts about conventional perceptions of reality. Particularly, cynicism about modern society and an attempt to find meaning in life.

    Fantasy v fiction
    Certain personality characteristics may also incline some people to believe in the notion of starseeds. For instance, if you are fantasy prone and often confuse imaginary and real events you may see the theory of alien consciousness as profound and desirable.

    In psychological terms, this is known as a source monitoring error, which is a type of unconscious memory error whereby a person gets confused between what's real and accurate and what's unreal and imagined.

    It's commonly seen in schizophrenia and research has found links between schizotypal personality disorder – a common disorder considered to be a mild form of schizophrenia – and belief in conspiracy theories.

    The concept of starseeds is a form of new age belief and the term refers to alternative spiritual practices developed during the 1970s

    A further effect that can encourage such beliefs is what's known as ontological confusion. This occurs when people cannot discriminate between metaphorical and factual statements such as: "Old furniture knows things about the past." These may be interpreted more literally than metaphorically and so make it more likely that people then endorse pseudoscientific, transcendental theories.

    This is especially true when the source of the information is perceived to be trustworthy and knowledgeable. Dubbed the Einstein effect, this is where trusted sources of information are given more credence because of the social credibility they possess.

    In the case of starseeds, several books published by big publishing houses may provide a sense of authenticity and so too does the fact that a number of them are bestsellers. Indeed, it seems life as we know it, may not be as straightforward as we once imagined.

    I know this will seem flippant and perhaps non apologetic, but I find that in mankind, we seem to grow as one unit.. Many traits tend to surface around the same time, and titles like "Starseeds", or more "Ascended Beings" really are nothing more than either a stroke of ego, or worse, nonsense. There are very few "real spectacular individuals" born in each generation in my opinion... But on the whole we are getting wiser as we progress as a species.

    If you were to sample the population at large, I would venture to bet that the majority of the population would suggest that they can identify with many, if not all, of the questions outlined above in the OP.. As many of those things can easily fit into the minds of nearly everyone on this planet... Our minds are mostly wired the same, which means we mostly experience at some point, the same thoughts, opinions, feelings, and reasonings ... So we could all relate to the possibilities that we have "Felt" or behaved in a certain way at some point...Reactions are emotional states that are "Situational"..

    To me it is reflective of a seeming need to feel "Superior", or a means to explain away behavioral traits that are otherwise deemed "Superior", in a society that judges individuals based upon behaviors. For example, " I didn't do well in school, because my intelligence is too high, that the material bored me"... Which could easily also be translated into
    "They must have a medical condition such as ADD, or they would have studied more"... And anything in between.... Only this new arena focuses on "HOPE". Sometimes the indivdual themselves do not even do this, their peers will!


    Titles, labels, for the most part in my opinion, are fully nonsense, as we are all just unique. Our brains are unique, etc..

    This takes me to the 100 monkey observation... Perhaps we are just seeing an outpouring of the "monkeys" who finally learned to wash dirt off of their bananas, by dunking them into water prior to eating them, and nothing more... Their parents giving them a few of the newly learned information, to give them a "jump start" on the others... I suppose to those who have never submerged their bananas, those whom did, would seem "Special or gifted" in the eyes of those still eating bananas with sand or dirt on them. Eventually, dunking bananas will seem obvious, and be used on the next fruit...

    As technology advances, science advances, and we learn more about ourselves, it would seem most obvious that each new generation, by a means of merely being born in their time, would seem more advanced, as each new thing is passed along as we progress as a species...

    I believe what we are seeing is a focus on one area, rather than a birthing of someone "Special"... Someone (At whatever age), determines they wish to be sensitive in life to a certain thing... In some cases, it is the sadness of the population, in others the greed factor, etc...

    Perhaps we as a species are becoming more telepathic, more sensitive to the emotions of others, or more aware that the way in which we treat the differences of those in our own species, reflects on our species as a whole, and we are trying to right that wrong... But this is at a species level in my opinion... And some of this can be measured... But we have yet to develop a tool that suggests where ur actual soul originates from, as far as I know, and we are left to only "Believe" what others suggest in this area...

    Perhaps it is as simple as children being more aware or sensitive of our plight, as their parents have perhaps been sensitive to such things...

    I do apologize if this sounds negative, but I have yet to see any of these "Starseeds" just "doing good", without trying to capitalize off of it in some way. But I DO see many common "everyday" men and women making a difference, just because it is the right thing to do... Once we remove the thrones and just DO... Perhaps humanity will get somewhere as a whole... One can only hope. Why however elevate anyone above another inn this regard?

    We can believe we know something.. Such as where souls originate from... And where they go after we die, and certainly we can pay others or allow others to convince us we are "Special" reincarnated beings... (Or energies)... But speaking aloud of such things, without any way to prove it, is just about as solid a science as "guessing..." Of course a reincarnation specialist will tell you that you had a past life. Just as an auto mechanic will tell you what your vehicle needs...

    The only difference is you do not need to "believe" a mechanic can fix your vehicle as you drive it away fully repaired... But with a reincarnation specialist, he must "Convince you" that what he says is true.. And if you want to believe you will...

    Unless you see or live the process in a way that can be documented, examined and studied, any who believe that "Starseeds" are any different than you or I? Are putting their beliefs in the hands of hope. We ALL live among the stars, which makes us ALL "Starseeds".... (if you wish to catagorize us as such...) And certainly everyone's personal choice to make.. But I believe all of humanity is special, and none deserve special titles, no matter what their special offerings to humanity.

    (In my opinion), what is happening here? Is nno different than the rest of the "Dividing" of a species, by status, career, wealth, color, nationality, etc. And this is in no way, bringing humanity up "Together" as a whole... Nor is it something a more intelligent and wise individuals would do.. The "Titling" alone, is a sign of a less advanced way of thinking in itself... Selfish if you will... Or shallow...

    Putting these individuals on a pedestal, makes it worse. Setting us up for false prophets, or leaders... When we are all the same... We have many of these individuals who have "Falling outs" in our community who quickly will begin to ostracize others in the same community, when their "Material" no longer aligns with what they are selling... Which leads them to then attack the character of another.

    I usually avoid this topic for just this reason, it is an energy draw that leads nowhere.

    You are ALL UNIQUE and SPECIAL!!! Don't let Gaia's 'Questions" let you feel "Less than"... Or anyone else's questions or statements...
