S: Okay.
What about Soul Assignments?
MELORA: All right. Give us a moment. We brought
this term up in this discussion of religion, in this discussion
of aligning yourself with the appropriate, highest Divine aspect
of you because we wanted to distinguish between this sense of
aligning and that of worshipping some Earth-based god or gods
of your understanding. Soul
Assignments are group shared, are Soul Group shared, and
they originate with the Being most highly evolved of that Soul
Group. If we use Athena as an example, who she is in her most
exalted and most evolved expression, we can explain that Soul
Assignments have to do with your resonance, which we have explained
before--what issues or aspects of [3rd-dimensional] Reality that
the group wishes to explore in its many expressions, whether
that's physical, just energy, or whatever that is. Whatever dimensions,
whatever universes. ("Issues" would be the Earth term,
meaning that in Earth embodiment that would be an issue or a
challenge. "Aspects of Reality" would be the Soul-level
term.)
And those qualities are
what enable Ascended Beings to distinguish each other from each
other, even though they are in Oneness consciousness. So someone
of the Order of Melchizedek would be able to recognize a Christed
Being because of that, even in the Oneness consciousness. Because
there is not any evolved being or god, no matter how evolved,
that is totally whole. That's what creates Infinity. That movement
toward wholeness creates and moves into Infinity. This is a very
important understanding. Therefore, one of the first clues on
Earth that a person is not enlightened is when they say: "I
am enlightened."
[laughs] Do you see?
S: [laughs]
Yes because a kahuna I
was working with said, "Kahunas don't call themselves "kahuna";
other people do." Do soul groups vary in size?
MELORA:
Oh, of course. And that would range according to
not even time. It would vary according to that seeding--that
concept of seeding consciousness, as in Starseed. There are "older"
or more ancient (and we're not talking millennia [laughs]; we're
talking trillions of years) groups. You could conceivably talk
about a core group of beings that existed--not one, but at least
two. Not ever one. You could probably get to that point, but
their evolution from where they started has so many permutations,
it's like fractiles. That's why there can't be One God--ever.
That's why Yahweh of Genesis is not the same Yahweh of
Ecclesiastes, because Yahweh keeps evolving.
S: Yes. Like
we do. Of course.
MELORA: That's why in our Jyoti put her question in parentheses
("The Yahweh of the Old Testament?") Continuing
to impose those static structures of Yahweh on Earth is holding
people back from their own evolution.
S:
I thought that was so
interesting when you said that was the bondage of the
Jews [in Part I]. Those words are just marvelous.
I requested another session with
S. to get more specific information about several topics Melora
discussed in the 3-part "For Star Children" series.
Here is more clarification about "Soul Assignments"
from a session on 2/9/02. -- Jyoti Alla-An
S:
. . . After reading the
transcript [of the "For Star Children Series"]
I was wondering: "Who is in charge of our lives?
MELORA:
Yes. That is an excellent
question. This also came through with a client yesterday, and
that is: What does it mean when you say, "For one's highest
good." This is related to what you were saying. This would
be from what you would consider a Universal, Divine perspective--not
even from your High Self level. Not even from your OverSoul level,
and most certainly not just from your consciousness level in
this current embodiment. So it would be your highest Divine Guide,
as we mentioned this term before, as it is true and as it resonates
with the true Creator Source--meaning, All That Is Good, All
That Is. "All That Is Good" is important to say.
S:
. . . Yes, and part of
the question was: "As I get older, and I want to stay on
the Earth as I know it, who decides when I leave?"
MELORA:
We're hearing that
your Core Soul decides.
S:
. . . This is for everybody?
The Core Soul decides when enough's enough, and it's time to
move onward?
MELORA:
Right, and the Core Soul is NOT synonymous with
the High Self. Your High Self is part of what you would consider
the Core Soul, because the Core Soul is the collective, including
OverSoul, Higher Self, all of the embodiments (past, present
& future), and to the highest level of what we were calling
the integral part of the Soul Group that can be identified as
your specific "vertical soul hierarchy." All of that,
collectively, is the Core Soul. For most (or many) people, that
is still in a fragmented state.
S:
. . . Thank you. And Jyoti's
next question is: "Could you provide more specific information
about Soul Assignments?"
MELORA:
Yes, and we will begin
by reiterating that Soul
Assignments are properly assignments WITH--not TO. That includes not being assigned
TO a specific god. You're assigned here WITH
Yahweh, or you're assigned here WITH some other god, or whatever--not
TO.
And so when one part of a vertical soul hierarchy, a Soul Group,
or whatever, "gets too big for its britches," then
we have the Yahweh phenomenon. The Yahweh phenomenon is that
one part feels that it is above the others and makes the others
subservient to it--for its own pleasure, for its own sense of
power, or whatever other issues there are. The reality is that
Beings are on assignment WITH other parts of their vertical soul
hierarchy and that they are all interdependent.
When we gave as an example
that our Jyoti is on assignment on the Earth with Pallas
Athena, in that lineage, we were saying that Athena properly,
in understanding the relationship of the parts to the Whole,
can be no greater than the part that is struggling the most.
She can be no greater than the fragment that still hasn't come
back to the Whole. Athena, as a Being, understands that. Yahweh,
as a Being, in the past did not.
This is why, people are told
again and again by the Ascended Masters tht they consider you
heroes and that you are actually standing beside St. Germain,
for example, laughing affectionately as you, down here, have
no clue that you are standing with St. Germain as another aspect
of yourself. That is an example of the appropriate understanding
of your relationship to those Beings whom you assume are higher
than you are.
You had asked what the appropriate Divine
Guide for you would be. We don't believe we told you that the
word "God" just means "good" in Anglo-Saxon,
which is where the word came from [in the English language].
It just means "good." That's it--not male, not female.
It doesn't mean that there's only ONE. It just means "good"--"the
greatest Good."
S:
One of the things that's
coming up now as you discuss Soul Assignments is, for me, something
that I've been working on: pre-embodiment agreements. I'm assuming
that Soul Assignment has entered into pre-embodiment agreement
with others to work out or to be or to do something. Is
that correct?
MELORA:
Well, simplestically
yes. But understand that when you say "pre-embodiment"
what we would say is "between embodiments" because
there are many more
than one aspect of you between incarnations. Reincarnation is
not successive; it's simultaneous. There are a bunch of aspects of you that are between
lives and then deciding what their next embodiments are going
to be--all simultaneously. So it's more complex because reincarnation
is not linear--it's simultaneous. Everything that happens to
one of you happens to all of you at the same time.
S: Okay. And Soul Assignments would be the mass of all
that I am?
MELORA:
Um hmm.
S:
. . . and all tha Jyoti
is?
MELORA:
And the resonance
of the entire existences of what our Jyoti has called "vertical
soul lineage."
S:
So I'm finding that it's
more complex than the two simple words: Soul Assignment.
MELORA:
Yes. It's not just
you , singularly, here on Earth in this embodiment. All of the
aspects of you --past, present & future or Earth, 3rd-dimensional,
other-dimensional, other-planes, higher- dimensional versions
of you (which oftentimes, but not always, can be considered future
versions of you)--all of those together have a certain resonance
and a certain assignment with the highest member of that group.
It goes on, "up and up and up."
S:
Is the highest the "Divine
Guide?"
MELORA:
The highest member of
your Soul Assignment group would be your highest Divine Guide.
Then, at the really high levels, all are related to Source Creator,
but Source Creator does not have the ability directly to communicate
with people at this level in 3rd-dimensional embodiment.
S:
Well, this is like the
last time we talked about "the chain of command" and
you said it's more a "chain of communication." So is
that what you're talking about?
MELORA:
Yes. That's right.
Your highest Divine Guide (being the highest member of your Soul
Assignment group), can communicate with you . . . we won't even
say "directly." It can communicate with you energetically
in a general sort of way, because it's communicating to every
aspect of that Soul Assignment "mass," as you put it,
at one time: sending love, sending almost like energies of questions
(question energies, like "How are you doing?") [laughs]
"How are you all doing?" But very generically--not
specifically, as in the conversation we're having with you. So,
depending on the "expertise" or the absorption of energetic
values that you call wisdom gained in the many lifetimes (past,
present and future), according to that expertise, members "just
above" you [laughs] . . . this is hard to describe because
it's not literal . . . their expertise is going to determine
whether you get your Divine Guide's messages clearly, directly
and specifically. They're the translators down the chain
of communication. But it's like the telephone game: People are
sitting in a line, and the first person whispers something very
fast into the ear of the next person, and the next, and so on
[laughs], and by the time it gets to the last person it doesn't
resemble at all what was said to the first person! That's oftentimes
what happens.
S: [laughs]
I don't know why, but
this isn't real confidence-building in me. It makes me wonder,
again, who the heck's in charge?
MELORA:
Well, here's the good news: The communication
is bi-directional. The clearer you are at this end as the anchor
in 3rd Dimension--the consciousness anchoring being, the anchor
in 3rd-dimensional consciousness--the clearer you get in your
understanding, the more clearly you can send back questions about
what you need, the reality of your Soul Assignment and whatever.
When you have these questions that are not just intellectual
but they're from your Spirit (they're from your Spiritual Body,
your heart chakra), the integrated consciousness, then you're
apt to get more of what you need "down here" that will
help all aspects of you come into more wholeness.
You can actually teach
your Higher Self to be a better communicator, and this is exactly
what our Jyoti does with us! Our work with her is just as much for our benefit
as it is for hers. Her being our anchor in 3rd Dimension and
the highest consciousness and such a great communicator, she
teaches us how to communicate better with her and to communicate
what she needs "higher" than we are.
S:
And then you would pass
on the request higher than you are?
MELORA:
Exactly. And then
all connect more clearly and more fully. This is the mechanism
and why we desire it. We are not trying to pat ourselves on the
back at how great we are, better than other Higher Selves at
doing this, but you can probably see from the people in your
environment how well their Higher Selves are doing, or not, in
communicating with them.
S:
Well, yes. There's a lot
of people walking around in a fog. I mean, not that I'm not.
But they just seem to be absolutely lost.
MELORA:
But, again, we have said that this is bi-directional,
so it also depends on the consciousness embodied how much it
desires to go the other direction and communicate because the
"High Self" and the embodied consciousness teach each
other. This is the appropriate relationship--not that the Higher
Self is telling the embodied entity what to do all the time.
S:
Right, which is what you
said being in a free-will state.
MELORA:
Right. So in the ideal
situation, the Higher Self is listening and learning from the
various incarnational expressions that it is responsible for.

(1/6/02 session, continued)
S:
So Jyoti's Soul Group
is huge?
MELORA: Yes--
S: . . . because
I was wondering if you could measure it on one hand or two. [laughs]
MELORA: [laughs]
This is very brilliant
on the part of the guide of one of the two members of our Jyoti's
Soul Group, meaning this wing of her Soul Group. He said
that we could be termed as residing in Classical Greek times
in the body as females, as priestesses, and so forth. That wing
of the Soul Group is what we termed as Melora. (Ora
means "gold" in Greek.)
S: Right.
So you are a grouping--
MELORA: We are a wing of the much, much larger
Soul Group, so our group consciousness could be considered one
wing, if you will, of the much larger Soul Assignment group.
S: Are
you in contact with the other wing?
MELORA: At the Athena level, yes.
S: So Athena
really can access the other wing?
MELORA: Yes. Exactly.
S: And
then she could pass that information to Jyoti?
MELORA: Yes.
S:
Would that be helpful
or would it be overwhelming?
MELORA: We wouldn't be able to do that right
now, but we will be able to do that, yes. So we are our Jyoti's
point of access, if you will, to that source, Athena, as the
highest member of that Soul Assignment that can contact our Jyoti
through us.
S: But
there are things out there, just like the writing on the mountain
for the Jews--there are things out there that [Jyoti] would not
be able to comprehend at this time?
MELORA: . . . because that is not her lineage. She is not
of the Yahweh lineage, so she wouldn't be able to access that
because that is not encoded in the etheric DNA of any members
of her Soul Assignments or lineage.
S:
No, I mean from you.
The wing that you are . . . there would be other wings, but if
Athena has access to them, it's possible that the information
would not be appropriate for Jyoti at this time.
MELORA:
Yes.
That is true, but she will be given higher and higher access
to that information as she allows that merging that we were describing.
And do you have questions for yourself?
S:
I wondered about something
I saw regarding the Jews in concentration camps and the Nazis.
And then there was a sort of flash and a shimmering, and I saw
them all laughing. I got that same feeling with Mohammed Atta,
one of those pilots who hit the Twin Towers. Again, like that
whole group, they got to laughing at the whole "game."
I wondered if that's a cosmic joke.
MELORA:
If you see Mohammed Atta
laughing, it is more that . . . you know how you laugh when you
go, "Gosh! I should have seen this all along"?--not
laughing as in joking but more like, "I can't believe that
I fell for that" or "I can't believe that I did this."
But at the level out of embodiment, where you come to terms with
your incarnational "mistakes" . . .your soul education.
In that sense.
S:
Is there any thing else
that you would like to say to Jyoti?
MELORA:
Yes. There was this unfortunate
soul who e-mailed her and claimed to be the embodiment of "The
Mother" on the Earth. When we told our Jyoti that this was
not true, and our Jyoti did a soul clearance on her, our Jyoti
made the mistake of telling her that she did a soul clearance,
and this person e-mailed back and said that our Jyoti was going
to be damned to hell for having the gall to clear The Mother.
Our Jyoti e-mailed back and said, "The intensity of your
rage exposes you as an imposter."
There was one thing that this
person said to our Jyoti in a phone conversation that was frustrating
to our Jyoti because she could never get this person to get to
the point. The statement that this person made that has haunted
our Jyoti is that in working with us, Melora, our Jyoti has forced
us to descend and is holding us back from our Ascension or our
evolution. This is preposterous.
S:
[laughs]
MELORA:
We, as Melora, make our
own choices according to our free will and our love of our Jyoti
and our desire to retrieve lost soul aspects . . . what would
be our version of soul retrieval: our desire to come into alignment
with Athena in totality, our desire to help our Jyoti in coming
to Oneness consciousness, and so forth. We are not limited by
some person's deluded notions, or jelousy or envy of what our
Jyoti is able to accomplish. That is our answer.
S:
That's very good. Um,
who is above Athena? Is it a name we would recognize?
MELORA:
Give us a moment. Athena
came from another universe . It is not in your lexicon what Being
would be above her.
S:
And so she was really
the representative of that universe on this Earth?
MELORA:
We would say the only
representative of that Universe who was embodied on your Earth.
S:
The only one?
MELORA:
Yes.
S:
How lonely that must have
been.
MELORA:
Exactly, and why it is
so difficult for Athena, in coming into incarnation and creating
fragments, and so forth, who are separate in consciousness and
seek reunion, as our Jyoti does. This has been a very difficult
dilemma and challenge for the Athena Being, in choosing to come
here. This is the very heart, the very core, of what we're trying
to resolve not only for our Jyoti but with our Jyoti's help,
as an embodied "anchor" in this work. We need her as
a conscious, embodied anchor to help us to complete this process
with her and for her and for us. Do you understand?
S:
I understand, and it struck
me . . . almost feeling that I am in the same lonely position.
It may not be; it may have to do with all sorts of things.
MELORA:
Yes, and this is true.
We'll use this as an example: Athena's being the only Being from
that universe to embody on Earth would make it understandable,
would it not, that we would need the physical embodiment most
highly attuned to this truth, to this Soul Group, to this alignment,
and the embodiment that has the highest probability of anchoring
this process. That would be our Jyoti. There were other embodiments,
and there will be future embodiments that may not even have this
consciousness. And so what happens is that as our Jyoti is "successful"
in this process, then that affects her future embodiments and
the probabilities for this retrieval "back" to the
Athena Being of the aspects that became separated through karmic
embodiment on this Earth. The loneliest of all, in that sense,
is Athena herself.
That would be the same for
you and for whoever is your highest being in your Soul Assignment,
in your lineage, who can still communicate with you through intercessory
beings. So if you're feeling lonely, you can imagine the vastness
of loneliness for the many lost aspects that your Highest Being
of you--your exalted you--must feel.
S:
Do you know who that is?
MELORA:
Give us a moment. The
closest that we can come to (and, again, do not take this literally)
relates to your interest in shamanism. Whatever original, but
now evolved, notion of Great Spirit that Native American people
held and experienced and interacted with, that would be the closest.
S:
Oh, okay.
MELORA:
Is that helpful?
S:
Well, it is, and I know
I have a real connection with the feline races and the dolphins
and bears. But I wondered why, in what we're doing here today,
I was chosen to help Jyoti.
MELORA:
Give us a moment. There
is a relationship of resonance that has to do with being willing
to come to Earth and embody to help people. But this takes many
forms. The Christos Consciousness, as an example, is to sacrifice--to
make great, sweeping changes in consciousness on Earth. This
is not necessarily the same Soul lineage as another group that
came to help people. There are certain specialties, if you will.
If you examine Native American races incarnationally or energetically--not
just what you look like or whether you were born of a tribe but
what you carry energetically because of previous incarnations--there
is a resonance with Great Spirit. The connection with the Earth
and with Earth creatures and the notion of guardianship of the
Earth--that would be your more specific resonance issue
or expression. Do you see?
S:
I do. I get the word "stewardship"
of the Earth, and I like that. It feels very good. Again, I was
wondering about the context of working with you and Jyoti, but
we're not necessarily of the same Soul Group?
MELORA:
Yes. That's correct. You
could say that you have come together almost as a committee does,
so that when you work together you're able to do more than if
you work alone, as we believe this session has proved. [laughs]
S:
Yes. It's been very nice.
MELORA:
We thank you so much for
giving your time and energy to our Jyoti in this process.
S:
Is there anything else
you can think of that you would like on this tape?
MELORA:
Give us a moment. Yes.
We would encourage our Jyoti to remember (as she made a mental
note this morning) of the miracle of answers that can occur when
she asks very clear questions. In the process of e-mailing you
and in the process of detailing the questions on paper first,
then typing them in an e-mail message to you, she solidified
in her consciousness those questions, and the answers came flooding
in. If she wishes to have answers that she might not necessarily
wish to put up on the website (but we're saying we want people
to see this information that we have brought forth today), for
her personally in her process of merging with us and contacting
the Athena Divinity as she so intensely desires--the very personal
relationship--she can still do it in this way. It helps to set
down the questions the way she did, so that they're not just
nebulously flying around, so that they're set down in her consciousness
this clearly.
S:
That's good advice for
everybody.
MELORA:
Yes, it is.
S:
Thank you, because I think
that applies to me also.
MELORA:
Of course.
S:
Well, thank you, Melora.
MELORA:
We need to withdraw because
of our Jyoti's getting over this upper-respiratory thing, and
we wish not to tax her body further. We thank you again, [S.],
and you are most blessed. We are most blessed by our work
with you today, and we are Melora.
