NDE and Angels

My Awakening With The Angels – Kimberlee’s story

Ed note: This, NDE and Angels story, is an extract of from IANDS [the International Association for Near-Death Studies]. They have kindly allowed me to reprint here. The Web address for the full story is at the end of the post.

… Months after my recovery from surgery, I was re-admitted to the hospital on an emergency basis, fighting severe pain and an infection. When I arrived, my doctor told me she did not know what was going on, but they would work until they found the source. I could see the look of concern on her face.

I found myself slipping in and out of consciousness. I signed the forms needed to perform the necessary tests, saw my daughter, son and my boyfriend in the room, and then I lost consciousness. The pain became too much for my body, and it began to shut down.

Beings of light

I could feel myself leaving, and in an instant the most beautiful beings-of-light surrounded me. The pain was gone. One stood out among the others and stayed close to me. I realized these were my angels and I knew right away my physical condition was grave.

We talked telepathically – no words were needed. I heard the words in my mind. The light I had seen with my mother at her death showered me with the most incredible amount of love in, through, and around me. It was more love than I had ever experienced, filling every cell of my body. It had a radiance like a warm fire on a cold winter’s day. I asked if my mom and brother were here and was told that they were. I could see them if I wanted, but I refused. Something inside me knew if I saw them I would not want to leave.

I heard them say they were not sure I’d make it

I had no awareness of my physical body. I could see they had me on oxygen. My respiration was low and my heart rate was high. I heard the nurses say they were not sure that I would make it through the night. I viewed my experience like a movie playing out before me. I could hear everything being said, but had no physical attachment to any of it. I only felt an incredible sense of love, peace and warmth. The same feeling I had when I attended church, only amplified.

I was surrounded by the most beautiful colours of light; in every shade and hue with rich tapestry. In this space there was no sense of time. Every now and then, I was pulled back into my body. As soon as I opened my eyes I felt all the physical pain once more. Each time I awakened, I saw one of my children or my boyfriend sitting by my side and I knew I was still a part of this world.

Back with the Angels

As soon as I closed my eyes, I would be back with my angels and feeling the warmth of their love. For four days, doctors and specialists ran test after test. I had CAT scans and X-Rays to determine what was wrong with me. Over the course of those four days, I spent my time between two worlds.

I was aware of the physical, but also aware of my non-physical self. When I spent time with my angels, I looked down at my non-physical arms and body. I saw an outline of form filled with golden white Light that radiated past the faint lines. As if I was a star shining brightly in the heavens. The light was fluid, iridescent and connected with ease to the angels near or beside me. I connected with the stars and the vastness of the Universe. I was a part of everything in existence all at the same time.

Important message…

I took the time to ask questions, and I heard the message loud and clear…

Our purpose here is to discover unconditional love within ourselves and then offer it to others.

We are all on the path.

What differs between us is the road we take, the experience we choose, and how much we have learned about love. No one road is better or more important than another. It is all a matter of what speaks to your heart and feels like home within.

We are here to explore, experience and find joy in the process of living an earthly existence.

Our evolution and ascension as a spiritual being happens organically at a time when we are ready to receive it. We are all constantly growing, evolving and changing.

But, this is not anything we have to force or for which we need a certain skill set. We are all spiritual beings having the human experience. All those experiences are a little different than the person standing next to us.

My turn to go?

‘Is it my turn to go?’ I asked. ‘That is your choice. Right now, whether you live or go is up to you.

You are given several opportunities in your life to choose to stay on the earth or go Home. So I ask you, Kimberlee, what do you choose?’ I began to think of my answer.

Being here with all of them, I felt so much love and peace. I would have a hard time leaving. Then I thought of my children. They had already been through so much. To lose their mother would be more than they could handle. I could not do that to them right now.

I knew in my heart that all of this as I experienced it is timeless. One day I could choose to be here once again. I looked around at all the angels, the heavens and stars then finally looked back at my angel. ‘I choose to keep living my life on earth.’

As soon as I made my choice I…

Do astrologers go through an astronomical report about where the concerned planets are in which positions in a day for doing predictions that day?

“Do astrologers go through an astronomical report about where the concerned planets are in which positions in a day for doing predictions that day?” is a question I answered on Quora.

Homepage Topic 1 image Probably most astrologers will use software to calculate the positions of planets, stars or asteroids as needed on a daily basis.

Manually astrologers can use what is called an “ephemeris” (tables) to know the position of planets **in relation to the Earth**, on a daily basis. This can be found in book form or online.

The American Ephemeris | cover image The movement of planets in our solar system are so well recorded, and predictable, that one can either go back in time or forward in time and know precisely where they will be. It means, for example, that The American Ephemeris for the 21st Century provides me with reliable tables of planetary movements running up 2050.

I use both software and manual approaches by the way. Also I do look up at the sky on a regular basis – but more out of wonder than need.

Why does the same natal chart play differently?

“Why does the same natal chart play differently?” was a question I answered on Quora.

Homepage Topic 1 image Well (if I have understood your question properly) you could, in theory, have the birth of a child, the beginning of a business and the launch of a ship, all happening at the same time (give or take a minute or two – and let’s not quibble) in a town, let’s say on the edge of the ocean.

These events would all have the same natal or birth-chart.

An astrologer dealing with all three would apply the same chart to each situation at hand; and interpret it accordingly. In their evaluation, of the potential of each, there would of course be overlap and some obvious differences/emphasis on each of the three events.

Symbolical representation

What you need to bear in mind from this is that the natal chart is a symbolical representation of an event in Time, space and place – no matter what that event is.

Also, with so many variables represented in the chart, outcomes are not always as black or white as might be expected. Just like Mars, coming to oppose Uranus in Scorpio, does not mean you are going to break a leg riding a motorcycle. You might, or you might have a break-through in discovery of something unsettling previously hidden from you.

Correspondencies

If the astrologer, in our example, could continue to chart all three they would anticipate correspondences (synchronicities) between them to be found through their life journeys – notably the peaks and troughs of experience.

But, as you can anticipate, the outcomes are very likely to be different in nature for each. Let’s say a successful exam outcome for the child, corresponds with a successful contract for the business, and a successful safety inspection for the ship. And so it goes…

Indentical twins

But let’s also look at identical twins. How “does the same natal chart play differently” here?

Identical twins are often said to have strong correspondences with each other throughout their lives. And this has been notable with twins that have been separated in their early years, or at birth. But does it always happen? No, I doubt it! Does it need to for astrology to have value? No!

Like our three events above, here the birth of twins might be so close to each other that really the one natal chart, as good as damn it, applies to both. I know there are astrologers who will say the gap in minutes will make the difference in their respective behaviour – and yes it will contribute. But there are bigger things that need to be understood in this situation.

My argument is that we are not each a tabula rasa when we arrive here. We enter life with an intention that is personal to ourselves. Each child is a soul in a temporary time situation – with something to experience and learn.

How one child handles life and makes use of their potential (as symbolised in this chart for both), does not have to follow the other. And likewise, in the way the other responds to and uses the same symbolical potential.

In other words, identical twins yes, identical souls, not necessarily.

I hope this helps.

What does it mean if a person’s zodiac sign is Libra and they are a lawyer?

“What does it mean if a person’s zodiac sign is Libra and they are a lawyer?” A question I answered on Quora.

Let me rephrase your question: What does it mean if a person has their Sun in Libra and they are a lawyer?

Homepage Topic 1 image Well, there are numerous expressions of Sun in Libra. One of them can be an interest in law and order, even as a career.

Afterall Libra is represented by the Scales – balancing values and judgement. It’s a very judicial symbol.

But to understand why this person has become a lawyer (and has not gone into fashion or art let’s say – I haven’t done any of these by the way and I also have Sun in Libra) you would need to see their birth-chart.

You’d need to see what sign their Moon is in for instance. What signs their Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are in – and so much more.

The version of astrology, implied by your question, is too simplistic. No one is just a “zodiac sign.”

I’m sorry to say you are not alone in this misunderstanding of astrology. I reckon most astrology questions on Quora are at the level of newspaper astrology – or pop astrology as I call it. Any wonder therefore that a lot of the questions on astrology don’t get answered.

Does Saturn in Aries affect a Libra ascendant?

“Does Saturn in Aries affect a Libra ascendant?” a question I answered on Quora.

Homepage Topic 1 image Well, in general, all planets and angles are in relationship with each other. So yes Saturn in Aries will of course “affect a Libra ascendant” particularly such a sensitive area.

Without seeing a whole birth-chart this is going to be somewhat generalised – in isolation. And “isolation” being the operative word in my comments.

With a Libra ascendant and Saturn in Aries (descendant) you will have Saturn in the 6th or 7th house.

Take a look at the dynamics

Libra is seeking to get on with people, come across as an alround good egg, be nice and friendly, and good at weighting up the pros and cons in making life choices and decisions.

Across the divide, the Aries theme is a do it now, take action and go it alone theme – act now and ask questions later. With Aries on the descendant however your inclination will be towards getting your steer, for what to do, through others, in context with others or against others.

Saturn in Aries, meanwhile, will tend to put the brakes on and further hinder the Aries sense of urgency, and need for momentum. If Saturn is in the 7th house too it can add to feelings of a disconnect, a sense of isolation – relationships not working. It suggests an inability to attract people, or the right sort of people, into your life.

Bottom line you can get to feel you are stuck, not knowing which way to turn for sure.

The themes here suggest you need to develop patience and be prepared to go it alone. Once you can do that (with kindness to yourself and others) everthing will work out of its own accord. Think of Saturn as brokering healthy long term partnership/s.

I hope this helps.

What are the consequences of Mars and Saturn conjunction in general?

“What are the consequences of Mars and Saturn conjunction in general?” is a question I answered on Quora.

The person most in control is the person who can give up control.

Don’t push the river, it flows by itself.

Fritz Perls

More haste less speed…

Mars and Saturn in any challenging aspect as the conjunction, square, quincunx and opposition, is an opportunity and recipe for maturity and awakening.

Mars Conjunct Saturn image Mars wants to act and go forward with energy and drive. Saturn will go forward but only in a measured and secure way – which amounts to slowing down, resisting or blocking the drive of Mars.

The tendency will be to either drive with the brakes on – requiring a lot of energy spent going against the tide. Or a tendency to be forceful and reckless – finding oneself making mistakes, being impatient, riding rough-shod over others – and probably having to start projects from scratch again.

One learns to think things through before acting, to manage things better and develop patience, be less stressed. One learns, usually the hard way, to be kinder to oneself and others. One learns to go forward at a steady and measured pace with improved timing. And/or indeed develop the instinct to know when not to take action at all.

It can be a lonely journey (feeling up against it at times) but when the two themes are working together in harmony there can be real long-term success in the making. One is wiser through the experience.
_______
By the way I have Mars (Scorpio/8th house) squaring Saturn in Leo/5th. Mars is also my chart ruler. I still get it wrong.
