Part 1: What is Ascension, Really? (And Why Does It Matter?)

Ascension. It’s a word that carries weight. For some, it conjures images of climbing spiritual ladders, leaving behind a flawed version of oneself, and striving toward a better, higher state of being. For others, it’s a vague concept, something you’re told you should want but aren’t quite sure why.

What if ascension isn’t about climbing, striving, or leaving anything behind? What if it’s simply about becoming aware of something that’s always been true: that you are whole, connected, and an essential part of something infinite?

 

Not Reconnecting, Just Remembering

The idea of ascension often implies that something is missing—like we’ve fallen, forgotten, or been separated from Source. But what if that’s not the case? What if the connection to Source has never left us?

This is where ascension becomes less about “reconnecting” and more about remembering. The connection has always been there, like a radio signal humming in the background, waiting for us to tune in. In the process of coming into the 3D, it’s easy to forget this truth. Life’s challenges, the noise of the world, and the stories we’ve been told can drown it out. But forgetting doesn’t mean the connection is gone—it simply means our awareness of it has shifted.

 

The Role of Awareness in Ascension

If the connection is already there, then ascension is about awareness. It’s realizing that the spark of the Monad—the infinite source of all creation—lives within you. This spark isn’t diminished by low points, mistakes, or setbacks. It’s constant, unchanging, and always available.

Awareness helps us remember who we are:

• A spark of the Monad. Not separate from it, but a unique expression of it.
• Whole and complete. Not flawed, broken, or “less than.”
• A part of the infinite. Living a human experience while still connected to something far greater.

 

Why Ascension Matters

If the connection is always there, you might ask: why does ascension even matter? Why not just live life as it comes?

The answer lies in the possibilities that open up when we shift our awareness. Without this remembering, it’s easy to feel small, limited, or disconnected. But when we awaken to the truth of who we are, we align with a higher perspective that transforms how we experience life.

From this place of awareness:

• Challenges become opportunities. Instead of feeling weighed down, we see struggles as part of the journey.
• Life feels expansive. We’re no longer bound by fear or lack, but open to the abundance of possibilities.
• We live authentically. Aligned with our heart, higher self, and unique purpose.

 

Ascension as a Process of Realization

So, what is ascension? It’s not about fixing or improving yourself. It’s not about earning your way back to something you’ve lost. It’s a process of realization—becoming aware of the truth that’s been within you all along.

Imagine waking up from a dream where you believed you were lost, only to realize you’ve been home the entire time. Ascension is that awakening. It’s not about striving for connection; it’s about realizing the connection has always been there.

 

Final Thoughts

Ascension isn’t something to fear or strive for. It’s not a mark of perfection or a reward for being “good enough.” It’s a remembering, a return to awareness, and a stepping into the fullness of who you already are.

When you embrace this truth, life begins to feel less like a puzzle to solve and more like a song you already know the words to. The connection is there, steady and constant. All you have to do is notice it.
