Choosing words carefully because they are capable of setting impressions, and yet, acknowledging all that you explore here, I hasten to express my personal lack of faith in the many to correctly discern. This may well include me; because while no one with any sense if the metaphysical could deny it, the deeper fundamental of living, does.

It seems at the same time important, and also, dangerous, because discernment is flawed and imperfect exactly like every other human trait. That could be a good stopping point but I ask you: How can a member of a species that fails to understand the individual next to it, discern and act on a spiritual level? It seems to me, one does not base higher math on flawed axioms, one does not share from bounty before said bounty has been achieved, and dabbling with the metaphysical remains just a tad beyond a distinctly limited reach. And, in the end it may prove to be mental exercise from a human-created spirituality, after all.

Thanks for this post! Here are some of my thoughts and comments:

1. Your callout about us being influenced, bypassing conscious thought is profound impactful! Thank you for that insight!

2. Unsure if you're familiar with the older work, "The Kyballion," however it's an ancient text that deals with the "laws of the universe." One of the laws are the laws of vibration. This sounds like string theory:

3. A lot of the topics you mentioned, I'm very familiar with. From Jung to Archons, thank you for this work. I write about the Gnostics and archons here (https://unorthodoxy.substack.com/p/the-religious-tenants-of-scientism) and I argue that we need to simply accept this as reality because the sooner we do, we have a more accurate view of reality.

4. I'm very fond of what I've been exposed to w/ Gnosticism and I see in the comments you mention "discernment." Of all the ancient religions I've been exposed too, I think Gnosticism presents the most accurate (as evidenced by my article). The story from Sophia to the Nomad describers our reality the best. That being said, while yes there are "evil archons," we need to also focus on the "Divine Spark" that they ultimately want.

5. I agree with your point: "the need for awakened awareness and collective action." 1000%

6. Fun fact: I was going to write an article that is VERY SIMILAR to what you named this article (difference topics, but somewhat similar). I would say that this is an example of synchronicity (manifesting itself along the string/vibration/etc.)

7. I'm getting ready to release my book on our reality! You mention there's been a plan in the last 50 years, I would argue and say it's been the last 200 years. That's what my book focuses on - how the last 200 years have changed our view of reality.
