Animating Energy

What animates the body? If you are a person that believes that a body is a body and there is nothing more to us, then that I am about to suggest will not be relevant. But if you are a person that knows you are part of something more then your body, part of a complex system of awareness, then this might be interesting.

CS Lewis quote fits nicely here: “You do not have a soul, you are soul, you have a body.” The animating energy is that which allows the body to exist on Earth, in the form you see in the mirror.

Most people believe that every “Soul” is the same. They figure that if a body is walking around on the planet, the energy that animates it is just like all the other bodies. Sadly this isn’t true. Before we get into that, we first have to establish what is going on with a body.

A body is a temporary condition as many of you know. You are born, you live, then you die – we all do it. Prior to arriving on Earth you agree to terms with Earthly parents, some folks who agree to do the biological deed needed to create an Earth body for you. One conception has happened, the body is created for you by mom, taking some nine months to happen.

There are two things to note about this experience. The first, the body isn’t yours until you occupy it, and that does not happen until you are actually born onto the Earth-plane, the moment of birth. Prior to that you are not fully present in the gestating body – why would you, as nothing is really going on? It might be interesting to note that Astrology takes into account the day or birth, not the day of conception, yet, your body’s life starts on the day of conception – at least mine did. This distinction is important, as landing on the Earth is the start date, the day you commit.


The energy of the gestation is being recorded in the body’s energy field, but you are not sitting in the womb for nine months just hanging out. This means, until the body is in the hand of mom, as opposed to the womb of mom, anything can happen. One can choose to not inhabit a the body and option it to another. One can choose to make sure no one takes the body – stillbirth. Or one can inhabit the body just like agreed. Think about what I just said, especially in light of many hotbed topics in the modern age. Ponder the idea that an animating energy can, on its own, decide not to inhabit a body, or, that same animating energy can get together with the parents – at deeper levels of course, and change the plan.

On to the animation of a body. There are quite a variety of awareness energies in all of consciousness. Here we will be focusing on the Human Souled Being. This is a non-physical awareness, whose ability to project its energy into various scenarios for experience is unparalleled. The Human Souled Being can place a little, or a lot, of its awareness in any realm it chooses. It will do so by using the particular vehicle needed to experience that realm. On Earth we use bodies, on the Gumdolly Planet they use ethereal forms without a tangible, measurable structure.

A Human Souled Being may decide that it wishes to incarnate on Earth! That Being may decide it wants to experience the Earth’s frequencies from within, instead of observing from afar. So, that Being gets together with two others who have bodies on Earth and makes an agreement in principal. A bit of an oversimplification here, but you get the idea. Then the two folks have a shag with their incarnations and a body is conceived.

During that time things may change, circumstances may change within all three that may alter the agreement. Up until the day or birth, onto the Earth-plane itself, things can change.

From 1750 the estimated population went from 1 billion bodies to 7 billion bodies today. From 1.6 billion in 1900 to 7 billion today. So what happened? You should be asking yourself why the sudden increase in bodies? With such a huge increase in bodies, there must be a huge increase in the need for animating energies – where do they come from come from.

Really think about that. The population of the planet was pretty stead for a long time, then, rather quickly it exploded. Are there an infinite number of Human’s looking to inhabit a body? No. Are there 7 Billion Human’s who want to inhabit a body? No. Are Human’s inhabiting more then one body on Earth at a time? No, while it may happen, it is exceedingly rare as there is little reason to do it.

So what then? There are a wide variety of things going on. If you are reading this, and you are a Human Being, just know, many of the bodies on the planet are do not have the same animating energy as you, despite what you see. Faking a Human animating energy is pretty easy and most people are easily fooled, even those who can see energy.
