The Expansion: Roslyn’s Unfolding – part 1 of 3.

In the early days of my own awakening, I made many trips into my own HSR and had no problem meeting with the aspects of myself that came forward. However, in the beginning my daughter, Roslyn, seemed to find it impossible to go into her own HSR by herself. So, she came to me to ask me to guide her through a visualisation, which I did, and it was so successful, we did it many times more over the coming weeks and months.

We now realise that this was, of course, to give me experience in using the tool with someone else, so I could develop my intuition and the process, and it has since become the basis of many of my healing sessions with clients.

It also gave me the gift of allowing me to witness Roslyn’s unfolding and see how her gifts developed in the physical world after being through the energetic shifting that took place in the HSR.

Roslyn’s visualisations are always spectacular, and use a lot of the same metaphorical symbolism and dream imagery that I’ve studied for years, so I was also able to help her to interpret their symbolism.

Simply because the visualisations were so interesting, I typed up transcripts of my notes and recordings of the sessions at the time. I now have her permission to share some of these transcribed HSR visualisations, which show how her gifts unfolded.

I have selected a series of three related ones that occurred within a short space of time back in 2017, and present them in a series of 3 'Awakening Chronicles’ blog posts.

Each post explores a different aspect of awakening. This first one is about Expansion, the second one about Connection and the third one about Grounding.

Background context

To be able to understand some of what is mentioned in the three related visualisations I’ll share, I will have to fill you in with a bit of background of what had happened previously. In the earliest HSR sessions I did with her (but unfortunately did not record), certain things were uncovered that are mentioned that will make more sense if I explain them now.

 

 

For example, her HSR is not exactly a room but a large clearing in a forest, with a spiritual mountain on the horizon. There is a marble table and a door frame that stands in the clearing that connects with her unconscious mind. There is also a totem pole in the clearing, which has carved sections, representing different sections of her life.

This chronicle also mentions a Phoenix, a shark, and a tiger. To explain these, as they are of key importance, let me briefly outline the first three sessions we did together, where she started to uncover her psychic gifts.

Over the course of these first 3 sessions, we saw how she had been born with a strong psychic ability but had come to close down her gifts when she was very young.

In one session, we met a baby version of herself who had felt herself connected with oneness and the Universe but found it overwhelming because she hadn’t known how to handle it.

In a second session, she had met a toddler version of herself, who was not coping with handling her empathic abilities and was constantly being swamped by other people’s emotions.

As we (her parents), at the time, were completely unaware of what empaths were, we had not known that she had needed help in how to manage these gifts. So by the time she was three, she had obviously found it all too difficult to deal with on her own.

In this early visualisation, Roslyn had just met a version of herself aged about 3 years old, when suddenly a tiger emerged through the door, and also a shark turned up shortly afterwards. At first, both versions of herself were frightened, but during the course of the session, as an adult, she was able to realise that these creatures represented her power, and that, because she had come to fear it and be scared of it, she had locked it down for all her life until now.

Through the process of this visualisation, she was able to encourage her 3 year old self to make friends with the tiger and embrace the power. In the physical world, very shortly after this, she found her psychic gifts began to open up.

Finally, I want to mention that in these early HSR sessions, Roslyn also first met her Higher Self, which appears to her in the guise of a brilliant-white light Phoenix, but also can appear as a lady that looks like her, but is illuminated white and has wings.

So with that background context, let me take you into the Chronicles extract and watch it unfold, as I did.

Journal Entry: 13 August 2017

What prompted Roslyn to want to go into the heart space room was a dream that had arisen. Here is my summary and interpretation, taken from my journal at the time.

Roslyn’s Dream 13 August 2017

In her dream, Roslyn was in her old bedroom from when she was young (which had a low and sloping ceiling). It was full of people she knew from childhood but who are now grown up. They were shifting furniture – her bed – around the room to various places. There was a drip from the ceiling onto the bed. Like a water stain mark in the ceiling with a bulge, like it was going to break through. It wasn’t water but a thick slimy goo that trickled down. No matter where they moved the bed to, the drip landed on the bed and then started coming down in a steady stream.

My (Shuna’s) interpretation:

The bed = self and security. Shifting furniture = shifting perceptions. The ceiling = spirituality and a limit to your beliefs. The dripping = something affecting your psyche and well-being and the slime = lack of trust.

That the setting is in your old house from childhood, with friends from school indicates that this concerns long held beliefs that you have grown up with. These dripping and streaming spiritual thoughts are changing your perceptions and no matter how you try to fit them into your existing small structure, with the low ceiling, these thoughts keep affecting your sense of self and security. You aren’t sure whether or not to trust it and are feeling a bit threatened by it.

So, to understand what this is that is coming up, we did a HSR visualisation a couple of days later. I took her down, got her to feel into the emotion and draw it out into the bubble.

Roslyn’s Guided Heart Space Room 15 August 2017

Shuna: What do you see Roslyn (Roz)?

Roz: A big sword, like Excalibur. A big broadsword, with a big hilt, bronzy-coloured handle. No jewels but something carved into it – into the hilt and blade.

The blade says ‘protection’, the handle says ‘peace’ on one side and ‘war’ on the other. Hilt says ‘temperance’ (later looked that up – it means restraint from violence, from anger. Calm and self control)

S: Whose sword is it?

S: What is its purpose?

S: Protection of whom?

S: Is it your job to protect everyone?

It has now changed shape. It is unfolding out, in lots of layers of sword attached at the hilt – like a picket fence. It has unfolded to the horizon.

It is protecting – connecting the whole planet – everything to everything else.

S: What is your vantage point, where are you?

S: Does it have any more messages for you?

S: What’s happening to the planet?

S: Anything else?

S: When is this happening? When is the ‘now’?

Now I see light rolling off of me in waves. There are other people with light rolling off of them in waves too and they are meeting and overlapping, criss-crossing.

I’m standing between the totem pole and the table.

S: Which feels right to look at first?

I’m now sitting on the edge of the dais with my marble table. On it are the chalice and spinner where I left them last time (these are objects from an earlier vision).

S: Do these objects have any new message for you?

S: Does this make the chalice useless now, or does it have another purpose?

S: Have you uncovered anything?

The totem pole is still there, but it is further away than it used to be. And the table used to be marble and is now very white, like a pure white. It is still marble, but a very bright white marble. The dais is a little bit higher and the table is bigger.

S: Does it still feel like your heart space room?

S: Does it still have a door? Is there something else you need to do, or is there someone you need to invite in?

S: Remember nothing can harm you in your Heart Space room. Send it love and ask for the message it brings.  

R: They have all come together all tangled up, like they are making the shape of a person. It is starting to become someone.

S: How do you feel?

S: What are you resistant to?

S: Why?

S: Does the future feel familiar? Does it look like that past? How is it different?

S: You and the Phoenix are joined?

S: All parts of this are in the light of the Phoenix?

S: What are you doing?

S: Facing you?

S: Does it feel safe to hold them?

(Shuna feels an energy shift from Roslyn, like a calm wave and ‘thrumming’ wash through her at this point)

R: I stepped forward and took her hand and she took a zip and pulled it all down one side of me and then another zip all down the other side of me and a fabric costume peeled down and fell to the floor and I stepped out of it. I don’t look like me anymore.

S: How do you look different?

S: Do you look like an alien? Is it scary?

S: How is it making you feel?

R: Anxious

S: Why?

S: The person in the light, who looks like your higher self, ask her if she’s a part of you.

S: What do you see?

Now she’s zipping back up into the human body – the core back into its vessel. Now it looks like me again, but instead of irises and pupils in my eyes, the light is just beaming from the inside.

My perspective has swung round to be back in my normal body. My first thought was ‘thank you’ for the body and the connection she was creating. The Phoenix me is smiling, she looks positively gleeful.

S: Does it feel right now?

But I feel different, the way my heart space room is different. I feel broader here (indicates solar plexus region). There’s more space inside me, more room – like I’ve expanded somehow.

S: Anything else you need to do in the room?

My heart space room is about twice the size it used to be, and my perspective in it has changed. The mountains are not where I usually see them.

Journal Entry Ends

Back to today. This extract was pretty cool, huh? It showed how Roslyn’s higher self had set up the important aspect of expansion that needed to occur to allow her to move into a new stage of existence. Roslyn was being too contained within her existing reality at that time, and things had to shift energetically to enable her to expand and grow into a new reality, more in alignment with whom she was growing into.

Everyone going through their awakening will have their own unique way of going through this expansion stage.

Roslyn’s expansion occurred, as we have seen, in a Heart Space Room meditation and shown through symbolism and ceremony.

For me, my soul organised that I’d go through an expansion in a ceremony within a Reiki course. In my initiation ceremony, during the time when the empowerments were being seeded in me by the teacher, the teacher’s hands, held either side of my head, were suddenly thrown wide and she was told that I was going through a mind expansion.

I must admit that it felt like my head exploded. A searing white light rose from my tummy, up through my throat and into my head and exploded sideways. It was very different to Roslyn’s, but every bit as spectacular. Being spectacular isn’t a necessary requirement of an expansion, of course, but expansions will happen when you reach a new phase of your awakening and take a step closer to oneness.

How was your initial expansion? I’d love for you to let me know - you can email me at [email protected] 

In part 2 of this series, we will take another trip through the Heart Space Room to see how Roslyn connected to an energy portal and received a BIG download.

If you would like to be personally led through a HSR meditation by me, then you may be interested to know that this is included in a couple of our services. One is The Heart Space Room Deep Dive Session and the other is in our Holistic Healing Spiritual Spa
