How My Spiritual Awakening Began: A Journey That Changed Everything

I started meditating about ten years ago. Something in me felt called to sit in stillness, even though I had no idea what meditation really was.

I didn’t grow up around spirituality or energy work. I was raised Catholic, and later my mom switched to a Pentecostal church — so anything outside of traditional religion felt unfamiliar to me.

Still, I followed my intuition, and it led me exactly where I needed to be.

Like most people, I went online looking for guidance and found Mind valley. They featured all these incredible teachers, and one woman in particular guided a meditation about connecting to the Universe. I followed her voice, not expecting much… but I connected instantly.

Within minutes I felt euphoric — like I was floating in space, weightless and peaceful in a way I had never felt in my life. That moment opened something in me.

Around that time, I also began spending long periods in Hawai‘i. I would meditate there almost daily, barefoot on the sand or sitting near the water. Something about that land amplified everything. My abilities began to awaken. My third eye became active. I started getting visions. I could feel and pick up frequencies from people around me. I also learned that Hawaii is special place energetically - It’s an energetic portal. That explains why I was so drawn to Lahaina.

There’s no handbook for an awakening like that.
No clear instructions.
No one to tell you what you’re seeing.

I felt isolated because I didn’t understand any of it. At the time, I called the visuals in my mind “kaleidoscopes” — but later I learned they were fractals. Energetic geometry. Patterns from the quantum field. Even now, I’m still learning the vocabulary to describe what I experience.

Then, a couple of years ago, everything changed again.

I got into a terrible car accident and totaled my car. It happened so fast, but my intuition warned me beforehand. Something felt wrong — deeply wrong — but I couldn’t put my finger on it. I remember saying, “God, please take care of me,” and then everything went black.

I remember thinking, “Is this how I’m going to die? I can’t breathe.” I was floating in the dark.

When I woke up, I felt like my life had shifted timelines. It sounds unbelievable, but that’s truly how it felt — like I wasn’t in the same version of reality anymore. And even though I had no guidance, I somehow managed to navigate the emotional and energetic aftermath on my own. It was hard on so many levels.

Two weeks later, everything opened even more.

It was a bright Saturday morning. I was asleep when I heard a soft whisper — a gentle nudge telling me to wake up. I opened my eyes and saw it was 6:00 AM. Then I heard a voice say, “Say Baba.” It repeated it again.

So, I sat up, closed my eyes, and whispered, “Baba…”

Three hours later, I was downloading light language for the very first time. Remember The Matrix? Neo plugged himself and he started downloading. Except I wasn’t downloading martial arts, lol. I was downloading light codes - Lemurian Light Language. It’s a multidimensional form of communication said to originate from the ancient civilization of Lemuria — a highly evolved, heart-centered society known for their deep connection to Source energy.

My entire head was vibrating, and my HEART chakra burst open — the only way I can describe it is like a Care Bear shooting light from its chest. It felt like pure, divine instructions were flowing into me: what this language was, what it was for, and how to use it.

I was also guided to send light codes to someone I knew. It’s similar to distance healing in Reiki except it was light language quantum healing codes. I sat there and allowed the energy to flow. It was nothing but unconditional love pouring through me — a kind of love I had never felt in my life. Bigger than human love. Deeper than anything I had ever experienced.

It was God. Pure, Radiant, Infinite.

Even today, my heart is filled with so much gratitude and love. It’s the kind of love that no one can give you except for God / Universe. I finally felt love and compassion for myself. That moment changed me forever. I knew my life would never be the same, and it hasn’t been.

Since then, different guides and higher beings step forward when I’m open and ready. I continue to learn how to channel, how to listen, and how to communicate with angels and other beings of light. There is so much more to existence than what we see in this 3D reality.

As my experiences deepened, I realized I couldn’t navigate this alone. I started searching for teachers because there are no manuals for what was happening to me. I needed someone who understood — someone who could guide me or at least reassure me that I wasn’t losing my mind.

When you go through an awakening like this, it can feel isolating. You can’t talk to “normal” people about visions, energies, or frequencies without worrying they’ll think you’re crazy. And yes — I’ve accepted that I’m not “normal.” My life was shifting in ways most people never experience.

I also went through a Kundalini awakening a year ago, and that experience alone changed everything. It was powerful, intense, and completely life-altering. Once Kundalini rises, you can’t go back to who you were before. Life will never be the same afterward — it opens you in ways you can’t undo.

Around this time, I also started seeing auras, hearing entities from inside other people, downloading messages and visions….

I remember one day meditating at Griffith Park. I sat under a tree and connected with the Universe so deeply that two hours vanished. Time didn’t exist — I was completely gone in the energy.

When I opened my eyes, the world looked different.

The sun was bright, the day was beautiful, families were walking, people were laughing… but every single person around me was glowing in color. Vibrant, pastel colors surrounding their bodies. I genuinely thought I had died for a moment.

My intuition told me, “Place your hands on the ground.”
So, I did.

As soon as my palms touched the earth, the colors softened and faded, and everyone shifted back to how they normally looked.

That was the first time I saw auras — not just on one person, but on everyone.

My journey is still unfolding — and I’m eternally grateful for every step.

I love you.
