Welcome to Gaia! ::

Personally, I don't think anyone ever really "finishes" their awakening. IT's really about learning about yourself and the world (tangible and intangible). So I don't think it's possible to finish.

i'm trying to awaken but i'm not getting very far. any tips?

I just "awakened" as an angelkin. I've always felt the wings, but it's only now that I'm not denying what I am anymore and choosing to accept and embrace this. It's a lot like finding out I'm a lesbian all over again ^^;;.

I don't know much right now. I can't wait to find out more, though. I had a dream the night before last night about a spirit who had been dead for four years and was showing me how spirits walk among the living, and that some beings (both living and dead) have wings, and some don't. Most of the humans don't realize it, and therefore their wings are small and weak. Then she pointed to mine and said they're stronger than normal, and that I am a celestial being of some sort. She said that without words, though. It was the thought before the after thought, if that makes any sense.

Unfortunately, that's all the experience I can tell you. I've known about the wings for about a year, and I had questioned it but then denied it. I did a tarot reading and got a confirmation, and it helped me pull a lot of information together to reach this point.

Heh.

I saw the words "Wood Elf" and all I could think of was EverCrack.
>.<

I think I started awakening a year and a half ago, when I moved.
But at the same time, I'm still not sure if I'm crazy.
D:

I actually got scared and thought I was crazy in my first awakening...

It was scary for me. I mean... I had my one dream, and I think that the dream affected me in some way. Then, later it was "little" things. I don't say that I do things because I'm dragon... but... it's almost like I just... reflected it about myself in my mind as I think back, and I am sure I knew then that I was somehow distant from other people.

But... when I realized in my mind, and fathomed the sentence "I believe I'm a dragon", a few days later I tried to just... forget about everything. You know, think of other things and tried to not even look at dragon pictures or anything.

I had a second awakening that... made me afraid again, and all I could think is "oh god not again" on that day... until a friend of mine talked about reincarnation...

It's a funny thing. When I first awakened, I reasoned in my mind I couldn't be dragon because I was... human. Different but human, and yet there was the nagging feeling, and I would kick it back.
It was after I sort of realized the concept of souls and of the term "reincarnation". Sort of too late...
But the timing of my friend couldn't have been more spot on. She was talking to me about how she and a boy friend were reincarnated lovers, and the dragon dream and the memories of middle school were sort of edging in continuously from that previous class.

So... I had asked her up front if a dragon could be reincarnated as a human... she saw what I meant.

She and a few other friends of mine have had such great advice and views. It really did help. It's been about three years since that date... still trying to figure everything out, and sometimes still get a surprise. 3nodding
