The afterlife. Getting there.
At the moment of death, the soul rises from the body and is guided by someone (or some energy) we trust, so that we are not afraid. Then, we create whatever we think the afterlife is.
We experience what we think will happen. If we think we are going to meet G-d, G-d will be there. If we think we are going to party with our friends, they will greet us. If we think we are going to Hell, we will have a darker experience. If we don’t think anything happens after death, nothing will happen. The idea is that we are not to be frightened by dying. Getting what we expect, makes the transition easier than being surprised by events we did not expect.
For those who were enlightened in life, crossing to the other side can be quite easy. They slip over, reunite with friends and relatives, and move on to do whatever it is they wish to do.
For those who were not so enlightened, crossing can be uneasy. Still, they can be greeted by friends, relax, adjust, have a life review, and move forward to work with their Guides.
For those who had traumatic deaths, like plane crashes or prolonged illnesses, there may be a period of healing and adjustment.
For those who don’t think anything will happen, nothing happens. They may be in a state we would liken to “suspended animation.” They can relax. They can heal. They can get over the surprise that they are not “dead.” If they choose to, they can glimpse their former life. Or they can wait. What are they waiting for? Only they know. How long will they wait? Could be a short time, could be forever. Their choice.
Entities may come and ask if they need help moving forward and the soul can say, “yes” or “no.” Some souls will accept assistance and move forward towards the kind of afterlife we call “heaven.” Others will rebuff the offers of assistance for any number of reasons. Maybe they don’t think the offers are real. Maybe they don’t trust the energy which is approaching them. Maybe they are waiting for something to happen. What are they waiting for? Who knows.
If someone who has crossed wants to stay in this state of non-reflection, they can choose to do so. They can blame other people for things which happened in their life. They can be pissy. Or they can be calm and take time to rest. There is no hurry. No need to move forward. They have forever. They can stay in that state of cocooning for as long as they desire.
At some point, they may become curious about other options and look outside of themself. They may decide to accept assistance from an angel or another soul who can help them “open their eyes” and see more of what is available on the other side.
Eventually, souls move forward. They begin to see that there are opportunities for growth on the other side. They can meet other souls, play card games, take classes, or research areas of interest. If they so choose, they can plan a future life, then reincarnate on earth or somewhere else in the universe. Many choices.
People who have led lives of introspection on earth, often breeze through their life review on the other side. People who have not thought about their life on earth, may take longer to review their experiences, lessons, and interactions with others. A soul who doesn’t want to review their life because they know they will see things they don’t want to see, or who doesn’t want to take responsibility for things they did in life, doesn’t have to have a life review. They can remain oblivious. It’s all individual choice and creation (are you seeing a pattern here?).
Even a soul who is not interested in introspection can decide to reincarnate. However, if they are still working on lessons and experiences which they didn’t complete in a previous life, they may set up scenarios where they work through those challenges again. They will continue to experiences similar adversities from life to life, until they figure out whatever they came to earth to figure out.
It’s all individual. We have many more choices than we know.
Let me know what you think.
