Ascension seems to be a buzzword right now, but what exactly is it, and what happens when you begin your ascension journey? In this post, we’ll dive into what spiritual ascension is and explore some of the common symptoms you might experience along the way. Let’s get started.
Spiritual ascension refers to the awakening of spiritual energy within your body and energy field. We often go through life as if we’re in a dream, filtering everything through our ego—focusing on the past, obsessing over the future, and letting old programs run the show. But once you ascend, you gain a simultaneous awareness of your individual self and its connection to everything around you. This awareness is our ultimate goal.
When life force energy awakens within you, significant changes can occur on physical, emotional, and spiritual levels. Ancient practices like Tai Chi, Qigong, Aikido, yoga, and meditation are known to awaken this energy. However, sometimes this life force energy awakens spontaneously, leading to what is known as a kundalini awakening.
Maybe you’ve had a spiritual awakening before—perhaps during a retreat, in the middle of a yoga class, or even while dancing the night away. Whatever triggered your awakening isn’t the focus here; instead, we’re exploring what happens after that flood of high-frequency light enters your dense physical body. This awakening of your spiritual energy can range from mild to intensely overwhelming. And when I say intense, I mean intense.
Common signs of spiritual energy awakening include energy rushes, tingling sensations throughout your body, changes in sexual libido, heightened awareness, and a deep sense of cosmic interconnectedness. On the flip side, more challenging symptoms can also arise, especially if ascension wasn’t something you intentionally sought out. You might experience mood swings, mania, physical hypersensitivity, or even altered states of consciousness.
Don’t get me wrong—ascension is a powerful and positive experience. But it’s important to remember that while it may feel good initially, there will be times when you need to navigate the challenges that come up. This is just part of the process—the natural ebbs and flows of life.
Let’s take a more scientific approach to understanding this. As you begin to raise your vibration and activate your consciousness, you’ll start attracting and pulling in more light from the cosmos. This high-frequency energy is rich with knowledge and connection. It helps transmute your physical body into a light body, which simply means becoming more present in your physical form.
Let me walk you through what often happens, starting with your first energetic layer—the physical level. As this high-frequency light interacts with your body, it stirs up old programs and dense energy stored within. This light slowly heats up and burns away all that old, stagnant energy.
For me, this process made me feel really unstable at first. I became hyper-aware of how tense my body was, as if I was subconsciously trying to hold onto my old programs and identities. But as those toxins began to flush out of my system, I started feeling lighter. It was a rollercoaster of emotions—feeling great one moment and overwhelmed the next. It’s important to drink lots of water to help move these toxins out of your body.
Next, let’s talk about the emotional level. When ascension shakes up this layer, it activates all those old feelings we’ve buried deep inside for years. It can feel overwhelming emotionally, but this is normal. My advice is to give yourself the space to fully experience any emotions that come up, without judgment or fear. Allow yourself to release these feelings, knowing that you are no longer trapped by them.
In the mental, energetic level, ascension brings old thoughts and beliefs into our awareness. The key here is to notice them without judgment. Instead of being harsh on yourself, ask: Does this belief resonate with me? Is this story helping me move forward in life? Do I really need to attract all this drama?
This is where you can really start to listen and become aware of your belief systems. It’s a powerful moment because you can begin to question these beliefs and make new choices that better serve you. For me, this space feels like freezing time. I can slow everything down in the moment and consciously choose a better path instead of just reacting on autopilot like I used to.
I hope this post helps you realize that you are not alone in your ascension journey. Many people on the planet are going through similar experiences right now.
