Awakening, Ascension, and Psychic Awareness
“There will come a time when you believe everything is finished. That will be the beginning.” – Louis L’Amour
“We are not human beings having a spiritual experience; we are spiritual beings having a human experience.” – Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
The earth is experiencing a period of intense growth and change. There are multiple, layered, and complex events happening globally. Many people currently feel pushed to the brink, stressed, and spun out of the usual ways of living. During turbulent times, whether it be on a personal or more global scale, it is possible for many to experience what is called ascension or a spiritual awakening. That may be accompanied by an increased level of psychic awareness.
The term awakening is used to describe spiritual, and energetic shifts in perception and conscious awareness. This shift is often accompanied by psychic abilities and phenomena. Individuals may experience increased intuition, energy surges, and other forms of extrasensory perception (ESP).
Awakening
Awakening is when one undergoes a shedding and a form of rebirth. It may feel as if they are getting and ‘upgrade’ or ‘reset’ in ways of being in the world. This may include transcending limiting beliefs, habits, thought patterns, and behaviors. It may also feel as if one is moving into a new vibrational frequency.
A person may experience certain side effects, such as heightened awareness, visions, abilities, and dream states. This may also be accompanied by difficult moments or a ‘dark night of the soul’ where the ego is pushed to the brink, undergoing a form of ‘ego death’ and transformation.
Ascension
Ascension has several meanings rooted in religious, mystic, and new age spiritual traditions. The topic is generating a lot of interest at the moment. The pressure cooker of current global tensions is catalyzing major shifts in awareness and people are looking for answers and choosing to explore their intuition and awareness more than ever before. Ascension is when one transcends to a new level of awareness and undergoes shifts in reality which is often accompanied by shifts in awareness and increased psychic abilities.
Ascension is believed to be a process of moving from everyday 3-D reality to new 4-D and 5-D reality states. This move includes shifting across parallel realities that exist simultaneously, in relation to energetic shifts around the globe There is a lot of confusing information around this topic and some criticism that this is an elaborate form of escapism from the harsh realities that are present in current times.

A Psychic Perspective
During a time of great global shifts and unrest, many are experiencing awakening symptoms. The notion of ascension timelines coming to pass is hot topics of discussions in spiritual development circles. However, the reasons for believing in ascension and awakening can also be an ego fix used to escape the stark realities of life and a way of avoiding hard personal truths.
It is possible to engage with major changes and pivot in a healthy manner through consistent practices. The awakening process can be intense and cause major shifts in relationships, lifestyle, career, and an overall understanding of oneself. However, it is possible to gain an understanding and learn to ease off symptoms and feel a greater sense of empowerment.
There are many paths to psychic development, one being through meditation, and the use of psychic tools. Having a clear and consistent practice with regular support and an understanding community can make one feel less alone in a time of powerful transformation and change. Ultimately you are the captain of your own ship and what answers you seek are within you. The outcome may be scary but also exciting and full of possibility and wonder.
