Deeper Perception Made Practical

That Enlightenment Prophecy Starts Coming True

Decide for yourself, Blog-Buddies. Regarding the Enlightenment Prophecy in Bigger than All the Night Sky  -- is it starting to come true?

Decide for yourself, Blog-Buddies. Regarding the Enlightenment Prophecy in Bigger than All the Night Sky  — is it starting to come true?

WHICH Enlightenment Prophecy, exactly, may be coming true? Some of you already are familiar with this prophecy.

But whether or not you already know about it, keep reading. Since this article will bring you spiritual news, inspiring news. If you like, skip all the way down to this heading in today’s blogpost: HOW an Enlightenment Prophecy Starts to Come True.

Nonetheless, when designing today’s blogpost, I’ve chosen to bury the lede — as journalists call it. This founder of Energy Spirituality® believes that you readers will gain most from today’s article if . . . .

If you let me build up to the major, major discovery here. So I’ll share with you something that surprised me in real life. When I first-drafted this article! Also I’ll recount my discoveries during the following days while I worked on this article. For that reason, in this blogpost, THE BEST COMES LAST.

Rest assured, I’ll tell you everything, going step by step. Beginning with what is human and practical. Shortly before the end of this article, I’ll remind you of a prophecy about Enlightenment on Earth, a prophecy that many of you may have personally received yourself. Back when you had your own Planning Meeting for this lifetime.

If, like me, you did receive this knowedge before this current lifetime began, guess what? That prophecy is detailed in my recently published memoir (the improved second edition of), Bigger than All the Night Sky. Which is why many readers have told me, they have a sense of deja vu, reading what’s there about The Awakening Project.

So let’s go step by step then. This blogger will start by sharing with you . . .

Important News from the Harris-Walz Convention

Yes, let’s start with political news that you may — or may not — already know.

Hey, I’m doing my part to help them win, along with helping the Democrats take the House and the Senate. By a landslide. For sure, if you know the stakes of this election, you know how important it is to do your share. May I ask: Blog-Buddies, are you doing anything to help? And did any of you watch the Democratic National Convention (DNC) this year?

COMMENT below and let all of us know about your contributions, big and small. Maybe you’d like to share highlights of conversations you’ve had directly with people, engaging with one voter at a time

Talking to folks in energetic real time? There’s no substitute. By all means, COMMENT below and tell us what you’ve accomplished so far. When you’ve been doing your part.

Never before this year had I watched even one of this country’s televised pre-election political conventions. No surprise there! Until Trump took power in 2016, did I even follow the news?

Not much. Casually I would read The Washington Post. Mostly, I’d read the Style section. Although I’d vote in every election and primary, I was hardly “a political person.” In the same way . . . .

Usually My Blog Is Not Political

As the founder of Energy Spirituality®, this blogger presents information to help each of you to have a better life. That’s the purpose of this blog, not politics.

Energy Spirituality helps people like you with emotional growth and spiritual awakening. Using skills that work NOW, in the Age of Awakening. Most of our articles  —  and our 140,000 published comments so far  at my personal blog —  aim to help you use your full potential in life.

However, the stakes for this election are so high. Could anything be more frightening than Trump’s Project 2025?

Yet today, on the bright side, I have something spiritually-and-politically inspiring to share with you. To be precise, 42 somethings: Inspiration that comes from watching the recent national convention which culminated in choosing the Harris-Walz ticket.

This particular convention watcher uses skills for discerning a person’s consciousness lifestyle: How that person is aware. This is a process you can research in detail, provided that your skills are precise enough.

To my dawning amazement, I discovered something starting about about consciousness lifestyles of 42 speakers at the recent convention in Chicago. Totally without public fanfare, yes! These 42 leaders in particular, outwardly indistinguishable from all who spoke at that convention . . . These ones are living in Spiritual Enlightenment.

How Did I Discover this News?

Fortunately, I had recorded all four evenings of the Democratic National Convention for this current election cycle. Unsuspectingly, I did the usual watching of my recordings, hearing and watching a little each day. However, by the time I was watching the final recorded convention video, yikes! I realized something. Something big . . .

Hello! People’s auras show in videos, if you have good skills of energetic literacy. Well, guess what I learned!

Using my everyday perception, it seemed to me that many of those speakers looked “so bright.” Unusually bright! Finally, I asked myself the question: What does it mean, how so many of these speakers look so bright?

Intrigued, I started to do some research, using good skills of energetic literacy. Reading one speaker’s aura after another. Until the unexpected truth became crystal clear.

Omigod, So Many of These Speakers Are in Enlightenment

Who wouldha thunk it?

I began to pause my recording and do a bit of Enlightenment Validation. Then I fast-forwarded and researched the next speaker.

Over the next five days, I researched every speaker who was televised at the DNC. To begin, I’d research one chakra databank or two. Then, if warranted, I would add enough research to find out for sure: What WAS that person’s consciousness lifestyle?

Surprisingly often, I discovered that the featured speaker was living in Enlightenment. To be precise, living in Age of Awakening Enlightenment. Rather than Traditional Enlightenment.

Did you know? Two different types of Enlightenment are happening these days, either one kind or another becoming that person’s way of life. At this blog, starting in 2010, I’ve been researching auras of public figures. Seeking to learn who was in Enlightenment. Throughout history, that has been pretty rare.

Then, in 2012, I moved into Enlightenment.

Hello, to my surprise I moved into Enlightenment, Age of Awakening Enlightenment

Yes, to my surprise I moved into Spiritual Enlightenment — Age of Awakening Enlightenment.

Soon after, I expanded my professional work to include the specialty of Enlightenment Coaching.

Even then, I was never expecting what I discovered. Little did I think that my skills for consciousness lifestyle research could come in handy while watching a political convention! Let alone, that I’d find what you’ll read below about 42 current political leaders!

Speaking of Little-Known News about Spiritual Enlightenment

Did you know? In general, these days, many more people are moving into Age of Awakening Enlightenment. Versus moving into Traditional Enlightenment. 

Our souls make the choice for us, of course. Rather than our consciously choosing a favorite Enlightenment Teaching, as if shopping for back-to-school clothes. (The latest news about somebody new moving into Enlightenment was published just last week. At our Monday blogpost, Enlightenment Coaching Live for LUCY.)

Below you’ll find out what I learned about so many many speakers at the Democratic National Convention in 2024. Most speakers weren’t yet using their full potential, they were just fabulous speakers. But then 42 of these speakers had the most wonderful chakra databanks!

Incidentally, “Using your full potential in life” is the simplest way to think about what it means to live in Spiritual Enlightenment.

Inspiring, Don’t You Think?

People among us, in every walk of life, have moved into Enlightenment. Even if they never received official Enlightenment Validation. Even if they have no clue what Spiritual Enlightenment even means. Very likely, most these folks neither know nor care!

May the inspiration in today’s article help you keep accelerating your spiritual evolution by doing 20 Daily Minutes of Technique Time. Also inspire you to volunteer for this election. Help you to find the time to talk to undecideds, to donate and, of course, to vote for Democrats all the way downballot.

Also, maybe you’re wondering . . .

How about All the Republican Politicians in Enlightenment?

That amounted to  NOBODY at the Republican National Convention in 2024. Basically, I haven’t found a Republican in Enlightenment since I researched First Lady Betty Ford. (She moved into Enlightement by the end of her husband’s term as president.)

Zero Republicans. Unless you count the more recent consciousness lifestyle of the formerly Republican, former Rep in Congress, Adam Kinzinger. (See below.)

By contrast, many Democrats are in Enlightenment, whether on America’s Supreme Court or as political broadcasters. If you’re curious about that, COMMENT below and ask.

So Many of DNC Political Speakers Are in Enlightenment!

Accordingly, I’ll break up this huge roster into chunks, up to 10 per chunk. Supplying clickable links that you can use to start reading their auras. At least, you can read these auras assuming that you have:

  1. Taken our online workshop, Aura Reading 101, so you have begun to read chakra databanks. (Or learned the equivalent. Taught elsewhere?)
  2. Plus, you have completed the more advanced online workshop on the system of Aura Reading Through All Your Senses®. So you took Aura Reading 102. Accordingly you’ve developed the life skill known as: How to Read Auras from Regular Photos. (Or learned the equivalent. Taught elsewhere?)
  3. Having progressed that far, you can book one or more mentoring sessions with me. So I can teach you the more advanced skill required to research all of person’s chakra databanks, even if you only have a headshot to work with.

Hey, what if you’ve been toying with the idea of finally learning these skills? Maybe this article can tip you into actively participating.

Another option? You might like to click on the Free Intro to my Aura Reading Collection of Online Workshops. Others have gone from this Free Intro to taking the full online Aura Reading 101 Workshop. Why not you?

Now, moving forward into my aura reading research of all the DNC speakers: Many are NOT in Enlightenment, of course. But the wonder of it is, how many actually are. You’ll read their names below

Hey, How about Some Music as You Read those Names?

The DNC had a ton of musical performances. My favorite was when The Chicks (formerly The Dixie Chicks) sang The Star-Spangled Banner.

Incidentally, you’ll learn something wonderful about all three of these performers if you keep on reading this article.

Meanwhile, I propose a different musical soundtrack for today’s amazing research. Maybe some of you are familiar with a certain song, one of my favorite “spirituals” that came out of America’s shameful era of slavery. Listen to the first verse of the spiritual that I’ve chosen for this occasion. Or hear the whole thing. Then you’ll know why I chose it for us. (Granted, this particular YouTube video is a little dopey. Why choose it? Because this recording was the only one I found that includes the full set of words.)

HOW An Enlightenment Prophecy Starts to Come True

Summing up: Day after day, Blog-Buddies, I was watching my recordings of the DNC 2024. Last, I thought to add some Technique Time to how I was watching these recordings. I began to research chakra databanks of every convention speaker. Aiming to find out if anybody besides Kamala Harris and Tim Walz might be living in Spiritual Enlightenment.

  • Then I began writing down the names on a pad of paper. So many names.
  • Five days ago I began to first-draft this blogpost.

How helpful that I had recorded all four days of the evening Convention broadcast! As I watched and researched, I was writing so many names on that pad. Then, the morning I first drafted this article, the truth dawned on me. I remembered a certain Enlightenment Prophecy.

Which Enlightenment Prophecy?

Bigger than All the Night Sky was published last month. Published in a revised edition on August 1, 2o24. If you’ve read it, you may have noticed that this book is structured for spiritual impact.

Certain central moments of spiritual inspiration are the real plot of this memoir. Cocreating this autobiography with the Divine, the narrative built slowly toward each of these moments. For example, there’s the chapter on Smoke Damage. This you can read for yourself at the link just provided.

Unlike that sample chapter, most of the spiritual stories take several chapters to unfold. Definitely this is true of what readers learn about The Awakening Project. That theme builds, starting in Chapter 4 and continuing all the way through Chapter 7.

Look, I’m not going to give you a spoiler about any of these spiritual Aha!s. What will I say? For those of you who read, or reread, those chapters . . . You will remember the part about all the pushpins on a map of the world, and when enough people could take the great leap into Spiritual Enlightenment, what then? All those pushpins turned from black to gold.

Imagine: If You Learn about that Goal Before Birth,

And Later, When You’re 76 Years Old, this Very Thing Begins to Happen.

Wouldn’t You Count These 42 Folks as a Spiritual Prophecy,

A Spiritual Prophecy Starting to Come True?

Yes!

For me, definitely, yes.

Blog-Buddies, that answer dawned upon me one morning. Though I didn’t realize it immediately. You see, I wasn’t thinking about any prophecy in some heavenly realm.

Instead, as the very human woman who writes this blog, what did happen to me?

One minute I’d be jotting a new name on my pad, the name of somebody else in Age of Awakening Enlightenment. The next minute, I’d be wiping my eyes. Blog-Buddies, I think most of you will understand why I kept tearing up. Although personally it took a while before I had the Aha!

  • When a prophecy I learned about in a celestial realm
  • A prophecy which was part of what I was told (and warned about) when accepting this Life Contract
  • When I realized that this prophecy was starting to come true in my lifetime, happening NOW
  • How Enlightenment was not just happening to the Energy Spirituality clients I have helped
  • Here were these politicians, giving important speeches. And these folks weren’t spiritual seekers but high-level politicial leaders in Spiritual Enlightenment, at my country’s more popular of our two national conventions in 2024!
Thanks to you, 40 courageous political leaders -- in Spiritual Enlightenment!

My deep thanks to you, 42 courageous political leaders — all of you living in Spiritual Enlightenment!

An immense thank you began to chime within me. I wonder, Blog-Buddies, can you feel that too? Hear that ineffable thank you?

In Conclusion

As always, your reactions and questions are welcome. Probably you know, that’s the point of our COMMENT boxes below.

I think it’s safe to say this: Never before in recorded history have so many people in Spiritual Enlightenment gathered for a political convention. You can use the links provided above, plus your good skills for energetic literacy, and check out those Auras in Enlightenment for yourself.

Here are some ideas to get our comment conversation started.  Whether you wish to ask me a question of your own. Or you’d rather give an answer of your own. Whether there’s anything at all you’d like to say here, on this spiritually historic occasion.

  1. Did you learn anything about leadership from the names and video clips on our lists today?
  2. Which of these leaders was your personal favorite at this convention?
  3. Maybe check out the video with Nancy Pelosi, that same link provided above. When you’re 82 years old, would you like to be that strong as a leader still?
  4. Who was the first president or first lady to move into Spiritual Enlightenment?
  5. And who was the first American president to move into Age of Awakening Enlightenment?
  6. Which president followed in those very graced footsteps?
  7. Are those presidents still in Enlightenment?
  8. How does this Enlightenment Coach make her peace with people who attain Spiritual Enlightenment but, afterward, lose it?
  9. Is it really possible to do Enlightenment Validation from regular photos? Or screenshots? Or paused moments in a video?
  10. When we learn good skills of aura reading, such as Stage 3 Energetic Literacy, can we automatically tell if our “Discovery Person” is in Enlightenment?

Thanks for reading, everybody.

  50. 450

    Yes, Blog-Buddies, I’ve just made a journey through a List of Current U.S. Senators.

    What an odyssey it is. I don’t think I’ve shared much about what it has been like for me, doing research of current U.S. Governors and now U.S. Senators.

  51. 451

    For one thing, not a single Republican has been anywhere close to Spiritual Enlightenment.

    To research even a small number of chakra databanks is quite a fascinating experience. People show up in their auras as they are, you know?

  52. 452

    Some struggle with lying or sex. Or booze! And big-deal hiding is a part of what I find, even doing a brief aura reading.

  53. 453

    Given the vast range on display in these senators, I can only imagine how much courage it takes to step into the Senate as one of these glorious politicians in Spiritual Enlightenment, walking past cliques of other American Senators with low integrity, high cockiness, greasy moneygrubbing, and more.

    And do I even have a word to describe Senator McConnell . . . . other than the very lowest of the low???

  54. 454

    Do any of these politicians have well developed skills of energetic literacy? Not that I know of. I’ve never taught a one, not yet.

    I sure could name ones I would LOVE to teach, but my role is to wait for the students to come to me. ;-)

  55. 455

    Even without doing official Technique Time to use skills of Stage 3 Energetic Literacy, auric modeling shows.

    It shows subconsciously, anyway. Also, people reveal so much about themselves through what they say and do, and also through their body language — as explored in a sophisticated way in “Read People Deeper.”

  56. 456

    Finally for tonight, I’ll note something that may be obvious to you Blog-Buddies. Some, not listed here, are senators who live in Age of Awakening Enlightenment. Why aren’t they listed here?

    Like dazzling Amy Klobuchar and the personification of mench, Chuck Schumer! That’s because I listed them previously at “That Enlightenment Prophecy Starts Coming True.”

  57. 457

    Hey, Blog-Buddies, I just watched Kamala Harris and Maya Rudolph in a clip from last night’s cold open on “Saturday Night Live.” I laughed, and I cried a little too.

    Two women who are living in Age of Awakening Enlightenment!

  58. 458

    Jim Wallis is a writer, teacher, preacher and justice advocate who believes the gospel of Jesus must be emancipated from its cultural and political captivities. He is a New York Times bestselling author, public theologian, preacher and commentator on ethics and public life.

    I just researched him at our “EXvangelical Chakra Databanks Flash Contest.” First one I’ve researched there who is in Enlightenment. To put it mildly.

  59. 459

    At that Exvangelical thread, many of the submissions have actually been for active Evangelicals. Kind of funny, but I have no problem with aura-researching every nominee for that Flash Contest.

    So far, every one of the active Evangelicals nominated there has been doing disappointingly, aura-wise.

  60. 460

    But then so have big celebrities who are considered “spiritual” and have been nominated for that Flash Contest.

    Two contrasting celebs, doing not so hot — though in very different ways — are Beyonce and Brene Brown.

    Janice Hooper says:

    Hi, Rose. Responding to your Comment #419.

    As I remember it, I pulled up a good aura reading photo of Jelani Cobb. I’ve learned from you how to read auras from regular photos.

  62. 462
    Janice Hooper says:

    Using the aura reading procedure steps that I’ve learned, I chose and read several of his chakra databanks.

    After that, I used a different skill set for doing a Skilled Empath Merge with him from the same photo. Hope that makes sense and is an okay use of my skills.

  63. 463

    Well done, JANICE HOOPER. What you described is ideal.

    This blog is for all readers, not just experts like you. I’m glad to have clarification that you understand that one does not make a kind of mush.

  64. 464

    Before, in Comment #418, you described this:

    “I chose to read Jelani Cobb’s aura today, and do a Skilled Empath Merge with him.”

  65. 465

    For any Blog-Buddies who are not as knowledgeable as JANICE HOOPER:

    1. What does it mean, doing an aura reading with the system of Aura Reading Through All Your Senses® ?

  66. 466

    You set up your aura reading procedure with a Discovery Person, either live with you in the room, or else you have located a suitable photo, front-facing.

    Then you use the Preparation Process from this skill set. This is always required before you start an aura reading, no matter how experienced you may be.

  67. 467

    After you have researched all the chakra databanks you have chosen for this time of aura reading, then you end the aura reading.

  68. 468

    2. What does it mean, doing a Skilled Empath Merge with the system of Empath Empowerment® ?

    You set up your procedure for using one of the techniques for Skilled Empath Merge from “The Master Empath.”

  69. 469

    That means choosing one of many skill sets that you might select for doing that Skilled Empath Merge.

  70. 470

    Then you choose your Discovery Person, either live with you in the room, or else you have located a suitable photo, front-facing.

    (Probably what you just used to do an aura reading, if you are doing the sequence described by JANICE HOOPER.)

  71. 471

    Then let the discovery process begin. You follow the precise sequence of steps for doing that Skilled Empath Merge. All nicely set out for you in that practical how-to book, “The Master Empath.”

    Of course, that includes concluding that procedure. You’re done! Now you can look over your notes and celebrate what you have learned. Which could be quite astounding. And also personally helpful to you.

  72. 472

    So, that’s what you were referring to, quickly, JANICE HOOPER.

    And now readers of this blog can know it too. Again, thanks for bringing the clarity.

  73. 473

    Incidentally, Blog-Buddies, just in case you are wondering . . . .

    Does any other book offer you clear, systematic instructions for doing Skilled Empath Merge?

  74. 474

    Only “The Master Empath” does that.

    In “Empath Empowerment in 30 Days,” there is a quick introduction to doing Skilled Empath Merge. But that’s just a short intro. All Skilled Empaths can do better.

  75. 475

    Incidentally, imitators can bandy about terms that I’ve cocreated for the system of Empath Empowerment — such Empath Empowerment and “The Empowered Empath,” but let’s get real.

    How many of these writers of books and articles for empaths . . . manage to write about their own experiences of Skilled Empath Merge? This teacher has done it, of course? Others — have they even tried.

  76. 476

    So many eager “experts” who are stepping up to help empaths. Yet, evidently, they don’t know something that you know, JANICE HOOPER:

    Doing Skilled Empath Merge is the spiritual purpose of being born an empath.

  77. 477
    Janice Hooper says:

    Thank you, Rose. Gosh, it’s easy to rush these days. I won’t pretend I didn’t need the reminder to slow down and do things right.

    That is my preference and how I do things, mostly, despite pressure to rush, rush, rush, skip, hop, jump over important steps and information. Rushing to ruin, is how I see it.

  78. 478

    Beautiful, gracious, wise, response there, JANICE HOOPER.

    Once again, thank you.

  79. 479
    Tommy says:

    I’ve been reading the auras of some of these inspiring leaders for Technique Time lately. Definitely a good reminder that there’s opportunity for leadership in today’s world.

    But, I feel a bit sad about Kamala’s loss still. I hope this spiritual leadership isn’t wasted on a world that would vote in a sycophant instead.

  80. 480

    TOMMY, it’s good to read any comment from you. Thanks for contributing.

    Are you serious, though? You “feel a bit sad” about the presidential loss of the Harris-Walz ticket? You feel a bit sad that MAGA politicans took the Senate? And the House, too.

  81. 481

    You “still” feel a bit sad about all this? Check back to your insouciant Comment #479 ONE year from now. Then FOUR years from now.

  82. 482

    Look, I lived through America’s horrifying assasinations of President Kennedy; Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.; and Bobby Kennedy.

    The majority of caring Americans felt very sad — and felt other awful emotions too. Many of us never got over these murders.

  83. 483

    Yet those assassinations were done by madmen, not the majority of our country’s citizens.

    By contrast, who was responsible for the outcome of Election 2024? Our citizens, including our potential voters — who acted imo with all the political sophistication of 12-year-olds.

  84. 484

    Among those directly responsible for the outcome of Election 2024 are the 10 million voters who did vote for Biden in the previous presidential election, but chose to do nothing to help our nation this time.

    Besides that, did you know? Altogether 90 million eligible Americans did not vote in this election.

  85. 485

    I wonder, do any of them “feel a bit sad” about the consequences of their political inaction?

    As the consequences of nonvoting bite them in the butt, personally, during the trump administration, will they remain so indifferent?

  86. 486
  87. 487

    One last point. Some of you readers may be shocked at my outspoken comments about indifference to Election 2024, knowing as you do that I am an Enlightenment Teacher.

    Well, I’m an Enlightenment Teacher for the Age of Awakening. Most of the folks moving into Spiritual Enlightenment now are moving into Age of Awakening Enlightenment, not Traditional Enlightenment.

  88. 488

    We don’t witness human life with detachment, feeling disconnected from all the “illusions” of human life. In Age of Awakening Enlightenment, we can care very much. Many of us are doing all we can to contribute actively to improving life.

    I know I speak for countless folks in Enlightenment — as well as the rest of us — when I say this: I stand believing in the power of taking constructive, effective action. And I follow through
    with my speech and actions.

  89. 489
    Tommy says:

    Thanks for the comments Rose! You made me reconsider what I wrote. When I wrote “a little sad” I think I was trying to minimize my sadness actually, as if admitting that it feels like something catastrophically bad happened is weak or loserish behavior or something.

    As if admitting that I’m still devastated will keep me from moving forward with my life. Maybe not being totally honest with how bad it felt (and still feels) is not the best idea? But I don’t want to a big moper for the next 4 years …

  90. 490

    TOMMY, bravo! Feeling devastated about Election 2024 need not keep you from moving forward with your life.

    While imo the cool approach of your earlier comment can be a way to fib to yourself — and to others. Lessening your authenticity and effectiveness in making the positive difference that you could make.

  91. 491
    Violet says:

    Back in the summer, I joined my local chapter of the League of Women Voters, BTW despite the name, all are welcomed to join the League, not just women.

    This is a nonpartisan group that helps educate people about voting.

  92. 492
    Violet says:

    Working to help people register to vote and doing post election review observation helped me feel like I was doing something to contribute to the good of our community.

    I met a lot of like minded people. These people are also horrified at the caliber of people being elected to federal offices.

  93. 493
    Violet says:

    The president of my local chapter recently asked me to serve on a committee to help form the League’s policy position on the judiciary.

    Now I have another way to contribute.

  94. 494
    Violet says:

    My point is, join something.

    Meet real people. There are many opportunities to contribute to your community in real ways.

  95. 495
    Violet says:

    Much of government is local.

    Citizens can be very active in local government and better their communities in that way.

  96. 496
    Violet says:

    The more we can connect with people outside of our current social circle, the better we can understand the kinds of problems that our society faces now and find our own way to contribute to it’s improvement.

  97. 497

    VIOLET, important and true. Plus, beautifully put.

    Thanks so much.
