How the Dark Side has Manipulated the placement of souls on Earth (Page 2 of 2)

Thanks Silverfox for the protection ritual!  I've had numerous attacks at night in the dreamscape while going thru tough spots in my life and this will definitely help me in the future.   I believe that our lessons/battles get greater the more "enlightened" we become and our armour is simply past lessons learned.   I still am undecided on family members being OPs, but there were times I felt sure of it.  I only know that without going through those experiences I would not be the person I am today.   I think the key is allowance and extrication and protection of yourself from their life lessons.

I have no idea because this isn't my theory, I'm just reposting it here.

It's well known that the elite send us hidden messages through the media and I've seen hidden messages in "The Simpsons" discussed on this board. I've been thinking recently about how there may be a major "hidden message" on the show that is so obvious everyone misses it: Bart and Lisa are almost exact opposites of each other. Could there be a more obvious illustration of this "family arrangement" than the one on the Simpsons? Going by the scale in the original post, I'd say Lisa would get a +1000 and Bart would get a -1000, perfectly proportional, IMHO.

My sister was born second too, and while she's not a demon, she is one of the most selfish people I've ever met. I'm of the belief that selfishness is the fundamental cause of all worldly evil. If she's extremely selfish, does that mean that she's a "dark soul"? I don't know.

That's possible, Risen. I am firstborn, and do find my sister to be a bit selfish and dysfunctional at times. My sister, second in the family, fits the pattern others have described on this thread, but my two brothers - third and fourth - are not selfish at all. They are even younger than her, but have not followed the same pattern. So in my case, it is strictly limited to the second.

Some other possibilities come to mind... the second receives lots of attention even while there is already another sibling present (due to being younger and needing more care), therefore this might create a perception of "I must be more special than the other" which turns into a sense of selfishness later on. Or maybe the second child is a chance for the parents to "do things right" after all the errors and regrets from raising the first, which swings too far the other way and creates a spoiled child instead.

But that's assuming environmental factors are the only ones. Metaphysical factors may also play a role, which is what some of the discussion above is implying. Even among infants and toddlers, some have more of a spark behind their eyes while others have far less. Even within the same family sometimes. I knew several examples of both during the early 90s while living in Iowa... recently I took a trip back and got to see what became of them. What I saw didn't surprise me. The ones with sparks became individualistic and sensitive pre-teens, while the others became neither. I think that whether someone has that 'something' determines whether they become molded by their environment or catalyzed by it.

Something rather pleasing to me is that, although my brother has always seemed more self-centered and "plugged in" than myself, lately he has began to "wake up"!  I've been shocked recently to have him come and tell me things that I remember myself trying to tell him years ago.  Alternative health issues, Big Brother/IRS, and a lot of other stuff.  And while the stuff he brings me isnt quite as deep as some of the stuff we talk about here, its a good feeling to see him finally start to crack his eyes a bit and see the reality that isnt.

Actually its not a good feeling, its a great one.  Because I thought for sure he was hopelessly plugged in.

This is just a reflection of the media stereotype of men=dumb and rude, girls=smart and responsible.

I know some families where everyone seems on top of things spiritually and in harmony with each other. It's one of several different family "templates." Maybe the pattern of "second born is trouble" is specific to just one of those templates. Maybe we incarnate into a template that best fits our needs. You know, like warrior souls needing lots of adversity while healer souls may need more spiritual nurturing and tenderness (hypothetical reasons off the top of my head). But yeah, the complexity of interactions between karma, destiny, freewill, genetics, matrix, and divine intervention within the family boggle my mind.
