It often seems that your present point of focus on the Earth plane is the entire sum of your personal reality, but this seemingly fixed focus is an illusion. A true singular focus is the byproduct of being fully aware in the present moment. This presence of mind is only possible after a person has learned to expand their consciousness to gain awareness of all the realities in which they exist. This is to say, all the moments residing within the time frames they feed with their life force energy.
There are two different ways your energy and consciousness interacts with these “parallel” realities. It often happens within the past of the present lifetime that there are unresolved emotional issues or other situations left incomplete. At the core, these are situations created for specific learning experiences. If an understanding being sought through the creation of these experiences was left incomplete, the situation continues to reside within the energy field until it is revisited and released either directly or indirectly. We will explain later in more depth about direct and indirect releases, but for now we will say that once the understanding that was being sought is gained either through directly revisiting the past situation or creating a new, similar situation, the energy is released and the consciousness freed so the life force energy need no longer feed this parallel reality. It may also be that attempts to gain needed understandings are also carried forth from lifetime to lifetime, so the present life force energy may be feeding "energetic incompletions" from other lifetimes. What we are describing here is a complex system of evolutionary efforts that in your world fall under the label of "karma." Too often in your world this term is used without full understanding of its meaning. It is sometimes linked with connotations of judgment, or the retributive forces of a punitive universe, though it is in fact just part of an agenda set forth by the soul for learning.
While we have placed emphasis on parallel realities that are created within the scope of past lives or the past within this lifetime, parallel realities also exist within the future of this lifetime or within future lifetimes. Since all-time is one, the subconscious of the human mind is free to travel to any point in time, past or future. It is in this way through dream states, astral travel, and psychic skills of future perception, remote viewing and other advanced skills that the consciousness is able to "set up" learning structures and parallel realities that exist within the realm of future time -- the future of this lifetime or the next. Such realities are created for specific purposes. We will visit this topic in more depth during a future discussion.
The second way parts of your consciousness exist within parallel realities is through creating fields of intention that can extend into the future of your present lifetime and beyond.
Before we proceed further, we want to explain here that it is possible for a person to travel into future realities without a conscious or direct intention to do so. By whatever circumstances, it does sometimes occur that a person travels to a future reality and through that occurrence, begins to reside to an extent inside that reality. There are many reasons why such precognitive journeys are undertaken, all under the auspices of the soul’s design for a given lifetime. Because these designs are unique to each individual experiencing them, we will take you into a more generic example of parallel future realities created through intention by a person operating in conjunction with advanced soul capabilities. (If you are reading this, you have such capabilities).
Imagine your consciousness assuming the identity of "cosmic explorer" traveling into the future of the present lifetime to set down energetic markers. This is much in the same way that the first astronaut set foot on the then-unexplored territory of the moon and proceeded to set down footprints on the surface and even mark the expedition with a flag. In this way, your consciousness is able to travel into the future and explore alternate future realities.
To take this a step further, as you explore alternate future realities, you can choose to set down a footprint or marker. Understand that inside your future, numerous alternate potential realities exist side by side. As you explore these various realities, you're able to create a reality in which you wish to focus your earthly presence at a point in the future. This is in much the same way that a person scouts about for a new structure that will become their home at some point in the future.
Once you've chosen a preferred potential reality, you can then set about creating the circumstances that will lead you to eventually reside in that reality. Once you have set down your marker inside the space, a portion of your consciousness begins to exist there. You “move” your point of focus by setting up "intermediate outposts" of consciousness that serve as stepping stones guiding you to the future reality you've chosen. The number of outposts required depends upon the span of time and energy required for the creation. This is how you create the circumstances for different aspects of yourself over time to collaborate in creating a new future reality. These different aspects are your own consciousness operating day by day to carry out the steps of creating and energizing a new reality. The creation of some realities, such as mastery in a field of endeavor, is created within the collaboration of “selves” across several lifetimes, often in a relatively consecutive pattern. For instance, you can be certain a Picasso or a Proust does not manifest through the momentum of a singular lifetime. Such manifestations derive their strength of force and mastery over an arc of lifetimes, each successively serving as an outpost marker for the next phase of evolutionary development.
By entering the Portal of Parallel Realities, it is possible to gain awareness of all the places past and future where your consciousness resides. Within this portal, you can gain awareness of those areas where you can complete understandings and release energetic bookmarks across time, even across lifetimes. At the same time, you can enter the Portal of Parallel Realities to travel into potential future alternate realities to make conscious choices about future creations in this lifetime and beyond, and begin setting up stepping stone "outposts" in consciousness that will take you into new realities you wish to create. In this way, you begin to write the script for the movie of each life in which you play a starring role, culminating finally into a moment when you awaken to find yourself consciously serving as author, actor, supporting cast and audience on the universal stage of cosmic consciousness.
