Body mysteries

In late 2020 I noticed the beginning of what seemed to be swelling or possibly weight gain (weirdly less likely, which I’ll cover). I was definitely thin until December of that year. I’d gained some muscle during that time, and was overall eating rather sparsely (sensitive stomach). At around that time, I’d been having strange medical episodes that had a lot of features in common with dying. My organs would go cold, for instance, or an organ would feel especially light inside my body somehow.

In late 2020 and early 2021 I realize that there were signs that I had extra air accumulating in my body, under the skin. My thyroid numbers appeared normal when this started happening. By March of 2021 I was looking quite large, up from being a noticeably small-bodied person two or three months before.

When my neck started looking larger than it ever had before (very strange for me, as I generally do not gain much weight in my neck) with my body seemingly bloated but not very much bigger yet, I started thinking it was very unlikely I was dealing with normal weight gain. It was very rapid, and each enlargement coincided with the episodes that seemed to have strange things in common with dying (these having started after a violent attack). I’d been quite lean when the episodes started happening, and I was having trouble off and on keeping up with eating.

Now it’s early 2022. I am still very bloated and swollen to a much larger size than I’m used to. I weigh less than I look. There is strange distortion in some of the lines my body makes. It’s been going down slowly, but there’s a weird pattern where I bloat up and then go down noticeably while staying about the same size. It’s easiest to see the change in my face, perhaps. It is fair to wonder whether I’ve gained extra fat, yes, but I definitely don’t think I ate so much in the span of six months or so (I was probably at my biggest point six months in) that I’d end up twice my size or more in such a short time (which is what I looked like at my most swollen), and certainly not during the two months when I went from normal to unrealistically larger and odd looking.

There are telltale signs that I might have actually lost both some muscle and some of what fat I had on me in the last year, and am much, much leaner than I appear: I can easily feel the sharp edge of my radius bone in my arm through the swelling, and my shoulder feels delicate inside a swollen shell. My fingers have those bony bumps that very thin people sometimes get above their knuckles; they look a little like mosquito bites, and they indicate low overall body fat. So do the tendons visible just under a thin layer of skin on both my thumb knuckles.

Extreme amounts of air sometimes issue from my pores, and I can feel the air rushing out in a stream. At many times it’s whooshed out my eyes and ears, poured from my palms, etc. I do look strange and uncanny this way. I persist in thinking this is temporary.

It’s okay if I think I’m pretty either way, right?

On vaccines

Vaccines in general are designed to do only two beneficial things:

  1. Teach a person’s immune system how to produce antibodies against one or more specific pathogen. Antibodies are like an immune system’s messaging system, which can be used to chemically signal to pathogens. Antibodies are reputed in medical science to be an effective way to kill pathogens because sometimes those signals can tell the pathogens to die or to leave a person alone.
  2. Teach a person’s immune system how to kill one or more specific pathogen. This is often done variously with pretty close to a full range of vitamins. For instance, some pathogens die more easily with vitamin A methods, others with vitamin C methods or vitamin E methods, etc., or by combination of methods.

Vaccines can be preventative of disease when developed and manufactured correctly, but do not work instantly. They are supposed to deliver a version of a virus or bacteria that is reduced in vigor: deactivated or killed. You can perhaps think of vaccines as something like a mother predator giving a small specimen of wounded prey to her offspring to teach them to hunt. The methodology is similar.

Vaccines in general cannot reduce a viral nor bacterial load in and of themselves, but they can provide an immune system with an opportunity to learn how to eliminate a virus or bacteria. Vaccines in general cannot prevent nor reduce transmission of a virus in and of themselves, but that can of course be a fortunate byproduct of an immune system systematically eliminating a virus from the body. Theoretically, vaccines in general do not provide any further benefits beyond what one gains by contracting and successfully fighting off an illness, thereby training the immune system through urgent necessity how to produce antibodies and kill the pathogen in question.

Astral hearts guide

Hearts have an astral element that has a lot to do with emotions, bonding, how we treat people, and how people have been treating us. As a shaman with clairvoyant second sight (etheric sight), I can observe a certain kind of heart health that is not physical, and says more about how someone is doing in those other elements of life. Many people with or without second sight can observe the differences between astral hearts in various ways, sometimes by feel, sometimes by impression. Features of your astral heart can often tell you a lot about what direction you’re taking in life, and how it’s affecting essential parts of your nature and being.

Please note that these are not symbolic hearts. I absolutely do not mean to get in anyone’s way of expressing themselves via colorful heart symbols, which I know is very common. In my experience, astral hearts are not shaped like a heart symbol. Heart symbols look great and can mean positive things in all colors.

The meanings of these colors observed in astral hearts do not indicate that there’s any problem with any of the colors themselves, it’s just that some of them are not good colors for an astral heart to be, sort of like how you don’t want the inside of your throat to look very red, but it’s nice for a strawberry or your physical heart to look that way.

Here are some astral heart characteristics that I have seen and/or heard about, and what they mean:

Colors:
Green: A green astral heart is a healthy, loving heart. It feels good. The person currently has enough love from others that they can be optimistic, and they themselves are well intentioned enough that they have not significantly damaged their own heart. Green astral hearts used to be the most common to see, and that was a good thing compared to now.

Blue: A blue astral heart is very capable of healthy love, but appears slightly damaged by cynicism, grief, pain, or past bad decisions. The person is usually feeling that their heart is somewhat battered or bruised in general (not always from just one event or loss), or they may be withdrawing from others (which can be healthy if they can’t find the right company). A blue astral heart may also be healing, and on its way to green. If your heart is blue, it’s best to focus on good, pure motives, and spend your time with and invest your energy in good people with good hearts, if you can find them.

Black: Sometimes, when a heart has been repeatedly broken by victimization and abuse, the astral heart will appear black, like it’s been burned and scorched. This is the look of a devastated heart, and does not indicate that the person has done anything wrong. The true color of the heart (which can be green or blue) will sometimes glint through the painful blackened crust. The person is probably afraid to trust those around them, but fantasizes about finding someone to trust.

Pink: A pink astral heart indicates that an astral heart is in a healing mode, and it’s a good sign that the heart will turn blue or green before too long. It’s usually the result of someone trying to be a better person, and can also happen spontaneously from spending time and paying attention to people who are good influences.

Purple: A purple astral heart is a sign that a person feeling remorseful, and probably finds it difficult to pull their attention away from the guilt they’re feeling. This heart is still very alive, and indicates that someone still knows right from wrong. Taking steps to atone for what they’ve done wrong can help the person start to heal.

Red: An astral heart that’s red usually indicates that a person is feeling angry, and it’s usually a fairly clean anger, which is to say that there is often little else complicating it, emotionally speaking.

White: When an astral heart pales to white, the person is beginning to become too indifferent, often from boredom or other indulgences. This is a crisis in the heart. An astral heart is being allowed to become sick if it starts getting to where it cannot care as it reasonably should.

Orange: A prolonged period of selfish and callous behaviors and attitudes can turn an astral heart orange. It is beginning to become something like rotten. This is a crisis. It’s a sign that the selfishness really has to stop, or at least start lessening considerably.

Yellow: Weakness in the face of corruption or temptation to be corrupt can turn an astral heart yellow. It is not a bright, beautiful shade of yellow; it’s a sickly shade. The person has been doing the wrong things. A yellow heart has been allowed to become sick, and is at high risk for becoming brown or grey. This is a crisis. Good choices, including good boundaries against corruption and corrupt actions, can set a yellow heart on the path to healing.

Brown: A brown astral heart will look like there’s something about it that’s shredded somehow, resembling dried tobacco. This heart is very distorted, and results from someone being too mean for too long. This is a crisis. It’s very important for the person to reevaluate many of their actions, habits, and choices and show more kindness and integrity to allow the astral heart to heal and become functional.

Grey: A grey astral heart looks cold and anemic, like a barely living, slimy thing. It is the result of someone choosing to do cruel things too many times. This astral heart is in extreme crisis, and the person is very likely causing serious crises in the real world. It can still feel, and it’s absolutely critical for the person to pay attention to what they’ve really been doing, and become compassionate and caring to the right uncorrupted people in the right ways. There is very little room for error here, if the person does not want their nonphysical heart to shrink and die.

Features:
Glowing: A glowing astral heart usually glows either green or blue, and can sometimes glow through a black heart injury in bright green or blue patches. A glowing heart is a great heart, one that is very strong, very pure, and provides a lot of beautiful energy that’s often apparent to the people in the person’s life.

Rainbows: An astral heart that exhibits rainbows will have another dominant color, but iridescent rainbows will sometimes glint in and out when the heart is observed, especially in certain moods. This is a sign that there is a high capacity in the person for universal, transcendental love.

Experiences: It is not uncommon for an astral heart to do something while it’s being observed, especially if an interaction is occurring at the same time. They can talk, move, turn into things that look like animals, vehicles, landscapes, and more. Large, vital, healthy, happy, and peaceful experiences are all good signs. Sometimes astral hearts can communicate what they want to be like soon.

Gold sheen: An astral heart that is burnished gold in color or sheen indicates someone who is basically nice to everyone all the time. Note that this doesn’t mean they’re going to be pushovers; setting and maintaining boundaries is an important aspect of astral heart health, and they’re likely to have some skills along those lines. These are people who really do have a “heart of gold”. They’re rare, and very special to know. They look very different from yellow hearts.

Silver sheen: A shiny silver element to the astral heart indicates the heart of someone who is never mean, and who tries hard to be good. They look very different from grey hearts.

Crystal: A transparent looking faceted crystal astral heart indicates someone who is whimsical and kindly. They look very different from white hearts.

Shrinking: As a general rule, bigger than average astral hearts are better, smaller than average astral hearts are worse. When an astral heart is grey for too long without any genuine improvement in the person’s behaviors and attitudes, the astral heart may start to shrink, possibly permanently. It sometimes flops, like spasms. The emotional and loving aspects of the heart have been ignored by the person for too long. This is a dying astral heart, and the person may feel very dangerous or toxic in others’ estimation. Fear in these cases is the result of instinct.

There is a global heart crisis at this time, starting around five years ago. It’s been noticeable to many, in energy and through observing people’s actions. A lot of people have downgraded their astral hearts by doing the wrong things, things that they knew were wrong. Most damage to an astral heart is reversible under the right motives and improvements.
