Hello everyone, I hope you’ve had a beautiful week. For those of you who know my teachings, have read my book, or follow me on YouTube, you already know that I coined the term Ego Degradation to explain the physicality of what occurs when we begin to awaken. Awakening does not have physical symptoms, but Ego Degradation does, and it’s the cause of the Ego breaking down in order to remember that you are not separate from everything else; you are not alone; you are, in fact, the universe manifested in physical form, and it’s only the Ego that makes you feel differently. Utilizing a metaphor for this, we can say the glass is half empty, which is spiritually asleep, or we can say the glass is half full, which would be spiritually awake. You are instead the glass, the water, the emptiness, and the fullness all simultaneously, and an Ego Degradation is a remembrance of this.
There are many things that can cause an Ego Degradation, and in my book being released next year, called “Ego Degradation,” I go through all of this in great detail. However, for those of you who are new to this concept, Ego Degradation symptoms may begin to show up when you are either at your Ego’s perceived rock bottom, or when you are at your literal rock bottom and the Ego has no choice but to reevaluate everything it has previously perceived. Ego Degradation does not last a short amount of time, such as a few days or a week. It lasts for months, and when we come out of it, the mind is completely changed, and most likely, our personalities as well.
I’m going to speak about 5 Ego Degradation symptoms, and this is nowhere near the full extent of the symptoms possible. They are not in chronological order, and if you’re only experiencing one or two, chances are you’re not having an Ego Degradation. Please let me remind you to always check with a doctor before self-diagnosing with Ego Degradation, when it instead could be something physical.
First is a sensitivity to sound and/or light. Everything gets heightened and overwhelming auditorily and possibly visually. You may find yourself not being able to listen to music or watch TV. Sirens and alarms are piercing. People talking at a normal volume sound like they’re yelling in your ear. Beeps from your phone, messenger apps, timers, make you want to put a pillow over your head. The sound of laughter, computer keys clicking, placing things down on a hard surface, and even water running are painful to hear. Alongside this, you could also experience pain in the eyes, blurriness, eye ticks and twitches, and peripheral auras. You may sit in a dark room all day because you’re not able to go outside during the day due to the light being too blinding.
Second, is the inability to understand words anymore. If you have spoken to multiple people and legitimately do not understand what they’re talking about; you cannot grasp what they are saying; and you keep asking “what?”, this could be a sign of this symptom. It also works the other way around, where you cannot explain anything you’re feeling, thinking, or doing, and cannot have basic, surface conversations with people because the words literally won’t come out. This can also show up as not understanding anything you read, going over and over it, but your brain won’t process the information.
Third is loss of memory, which is quite common when the Ego is degrading. You’re no longer experiencing the world via the Ego, so it becomes difficult to remember things people tell you regarding anything egoic. You may not be able to remember where you put things or what you were talking about a minute ago. You may not be able to recall what you did a week ago, or remember movies you’ve watched, books you’ve read, people you’ve seen, appointments you went to. It’s best to not stress and put more pressure on yourself or chastise yourself. Give your Ego the room it needs to continue it’s journey of remembering that it’s not in control.
Fourth is increased clair senses OR a loss of clair senses. If you have not generally been prominent in clair senses or you’ve suppressed them, chances are your clair senses will increase during an Ego Degradation to the point that you will not be able to ignore them. This can come in the form of dreams; premonitions; knowing things before they happen; hearing things; seeing things out of the corner of your eye that aren’t there; seeing smoky figures; seeing orbs; connecting with people you haven’t seen in a while in your dreams; seeing Spirit; feeling other people’s emotions who aren’t around you; knowing when the phone is going to ring & knowing who it is before looking at it; accurately predicting outcomes of things as soon as you hear about them; randomly smelling the perfume of someone who has changed manifestations; chills all over your body consistently or the hairs on your body sticking up all at once multiple times a day; knowing what people are going to say before they respond; hearing songs or pieces of songs in your head that have an important message; seeing auras; feeling overwhelmed by the energy of others; channeling; the ability to more accurately Divine or Divine in a new way you haven’t studied, such as scrying or automatic writing; and the list goes on and on. If you have been very trusting of your clair senses in the past and have utilized them to guide your path, chances are you will lose your clair senses or not be able to understand them correctly whilst you are in Ego Degradation. They will come back, don’t worry, and they will come back with a vengeance once you are out of your Ego Degradation. Just give it time and don’t panic. Clair senses are the bridge between the Higher Self and the Ego, so if the Ego is breaking, it’s like trying to play a game of telephone with a can and a string, but no can on the other end.
And fifth is gastrointestinal issues out of the blue, as if overnight your digestive system decided to give up. This may show up as food intolerances out of nowhere, a new allergy to foods, or differences in bowel movements. It can appear as consistent bloating for no reason, hormonal menstrual changes, and unexplained weight gain or loss. As the gut is the second brain and also in charge of clairsentience, the difference in new frequencies vs old can throw the solar plexus chakra off and cause physical issues.
If you are having these symptoms, please know that you are okay, and the Higher Self is giving you a gift of remembering who and what you are: the universe manifested in physical form. Try to submit as much as possible, and give yourself the room you need to get through your Ego Degradation in as little pain as possible. You’re doing great. Until next week, all my best and highest vibrations to you.
