Oh my, this is just too perfect and timely!

Here’s how inner gaps quietly reveal themselves...
🔍 If they lack accountability
They will never own their mistakes. Everything is someone else’s fault — circumstances, timing, you. Admitting wrongdoing feels like an attack to them, so blame becomes their shield.

🗣️ If they lack communication skills
They’ll say “you’re arguing” when you’re simply expressing a concern. Healthy dialogue feels threatening because they don’t know how to listen without defending.

🧠 If they lack emotional intelligence
They’ll call you “too sensitive.” Instead of recognizing emotions as valid information, they dismiss them — because acknowledging feelings requires awareness they haven’t developed.

🪞 If they lack self-awareness
They’ll criticize others for the exact traits they refuse to see in themselves. Projection becomes their way of avoiding inner work.

🎭 If they lack honesty
They’ll bend facts, twist stories, and rewrite events to protect their image. Truth becomes flexible when integrity is missing.

🚧 If they lack boundaries
They’ll overstep yours and call it closeness, care, or concern. When you speak up, they’ll accuse you of being cold — because they don’t understand respect without control.

⚖️ If they lack integrity
They’ll always find a reason to justify harmful actions. Wrong becomes necessary, betrayal becomes circumstance, and harm becomes misunderstanding.

🌱 The lesson isn’t to judge — it’s to observe.
People reveal who they are through patterns, not promises.

Wisdom is learning when to explain…
and when to simply step back.

Not everyone is meant to grow with you.
Some are meant to teach you what to walk away from.

This is just lovely! ❤️

Message from White Eagle, Hopi:

“This moment humanity is going through can now be seen as a portal and as a hole.

The decision to fall into the hole or go through the portal is up to you.

If you repent of the problem and consume the news 24 hours a day, with little energy, nervous all the time, with pessimism, you will fall into the hole. But if you take this opportunity to look at yourself, rethink life and death, take care of yourself and others, you will cross the portal.

Take care of your homes, take care of your body. Connect with your spiritual House.

When you are taking care of yourselves, you are taking care of everything else. Do not lose the spiritual dimension of this crisis, have the eagle aspect, that from above, and see the whole; see more broadly.

There is a social demand in this crisis, but there is also a spiritual demand. The two go hand in hand. Without the social dimension, we fall into fanaticism. But without the spiritual dimension, we fall into pessimism and lack of meaning.

You were prepared to go through this crisis. Take your toolbox and use all the tools available to you.

Learn about resistance of the indigenous and African peoples: we have always been and continue to be exterminated. But we still haven't stopped singing, dancing, lighting a fire and having fun. Don't feel guilty about being happy during this difficult time.
You do not help at all being sad and without energy. You help if good things emanate from the Universe now. It is through joy that one resists. Also, when the storm passes, each of you will be very important in the reconstruction of this new world.

You need to be well and strong. And, for that, there is no other way than to maintain a beautiful, happy and bright vibration. This has nothing to do with alienation.

This is a resistance strategy. In shamanism, there is a rite of passage called the quest for vision. You spend a few days alone in the forest, without water, without food, without protection. When you cross this portal, you get a new vision of the world, because you have faced your fears, your difficulties ...

This is what is asked of you:

Allow yourself to take advantage of this time to perform your vision seeking rituals. What world do you want to build for you? For now, this is what you can do: serenity in the storm. Calm down, pray every day. Establish a routine to meet the sacred every day.
Good things emanate; what you emanate now is the most important thing. And sing, dance, resist through art, joy, faith and love. "

Resist - Be reborn

I found this list very interesting!

I found this list very interesting!

I hate to tell you this, but what if you’re not diseased
What if you’re just depleted

That may sound radical, but when you look closely at most chronic conditions, a clear pattern appears

DEPLETION

Not deficiency
Depletion

A depletion of critical minerals and nutrients the body needs just to function, let alone heal

WHY THIS IS HAPPENING 🧠

➤ Food is nutrient poor, even organic, because soils are depleted
➤ Toxins and pathogens constantly drain minerals
➤ Chronic stress, poor sleep, circadian disruption, screens, and overwork burn nutrients faster than they can be replaced

WHAT DEPLETION FEELS LIKE ⚡

➤ Chronic fatigue, even at rest
➤ Trouble sleeping or staying asleep
➤ Anxiety, brain fog, poor focus
➤ Nervous system dysregulation
➤ Low resilience to stress or illness

Not because your body is broken
But because it does not have the raw materials to run basic systems

FROM SYMPTOMS TO DISEASE

➤ Minor symptoms become louder
➤ Infections linger
➤ Inflammation persists
➤ Chronic conditions take hold

Many so called diseases sit on a foundation of long term depletion

WHAT DISEASE REALLY IS

Disease is not failure
It is the body struggling to heal with insufficient resources

When you were younger and well nourished, your body handled stress, toxins, and infections quietly
Now it’s louder, not because it’s weaker, but because it’s under supplied

HOW TO USE THIS LIST 📋

This list is not meant to overwhelm you
It’s meant to reveal a pattern

Different symptoms
Same root issue

START HERE FIRST

Before complex protocols
Before chasing supplements
Before advanced interventions

➤ Build a foundation
➤ Restore minerals and nutrients
➤ Support the body’s ability to function daily

Especially in a world that constantly demands more from it

This is long, and to some will be too “out there.” But if you are interested in Ascension topics, this is one of the best things I’ve listened to lately.

I find this scale very interesting, and I can see deficits and excesses in myself. What do you think? Is it a good tool for reflection?

👀COMMENTARY: In times when virtue is obscure, here is a 2007 illustration by graphic designer Jim Lancet depicting Aristotle’s ethical framework from the Nicomachean Ethics called the "Golden Mean." The infographic below depicts the “golden mean” principle, where virtue is the balanced midpoint between two extremes of vice—one of deficiency and one of excess.

The virtuous action or character trait, relative to the individual and the circumstance, is the appropriate "balanced midpoint" that fits a specific situation, determined by practical reason and applies primarily to emotions and actions.

I love this message! Stop caring about other people’s judgments. Do what makes you happy. Be who you truly are. Forget the critics. Their unhappiness is their problem to resolve.
