Out of the Shadows (eBook)

Foreword:
Allow Me to Introduce Myself

My given name is Audrey Yagalla, and I live in Pennsylvania, USA, the state in which my story begins. I was born the youngest of seven surviving children into a second-generation Polish immigrant working-class family but one with royal bloodlines. In addition to my earthly genetic background, I also know that I am one of many beings who volunteered to come here and help transform this planet’s consciousness, to herald a new era of joyfulness and love with Mother Gaia.

The life journey I will share with you has often been grueling, and I have at times cried out for it to end, and yet I persisted and pushed forward. My roles on this planet are as a healer, helper, guide, and keeper of souls for those who have been looking for answers. I am a divine child of light, but I have known pain, great hardship, and brokenness. Mine has not been a path for the weak of heart, and there were often times when I thought my heart would break into a million pieces. But it did not, and I continue to rise. I rise knowing deep inside that I have a purpose, a purpose all mine and mine alone, just as you, too, have a purpose that is yours and yours alone.

Although my purpose is now so clear to me, and I shall share the specifics of it in these pages, a great deal of development was necessary before I could recognize it. Some of this development came in the form of highly supportive places and entities in my youth. For example, as a young child, I loved the solitude of walking in the woods and crossing streams to reach a special place in the forest. That forest was often my refuge, both in times of gentle growth as well as times of great stress. The earth angels and faeries there sat beside me as I sought a place to fit into the world.

There was also much other development – of a decidedly troubling nature – required in my life before I would even glimpse my purpose, and perhaps I can best describe this process overall as lessons gleaned from the school of hard knocks. I had few friends as a young child, and there was much loss in my childhood involving people that I loved. But then, capping those losses, my life took a horrifying traumatic dive that indelibly stamped not just my childhood but also the whole of my life, as well as the lives of so many others in my orbit. This plunge into horrifying trauma dominates the early chapters of this book, but it is ultimately not the defining theme of my life. Far from it, I am glad to say.

Studies of the human mind continue to show that the brain is one amazing computer, able to store memories, emotions, and experiences all neatly tucked away for later recall. In confronting extreme trauma, the brain is capable of compartmentalizing memories to an even greater degree, and it seems that the psyche under such duress sometimes fragments as a protective measure, whether the stress stems from an accident or an argument, from some great shock or a sellout of one’s soul, no matter whether that stress is physical, emotional, or spiritual in nature. And sometimes the psyche or soul recuperates, sometimes it does not.

There are healing methods that I have used throughout the years to mend from the traumatic events that beset me as a youngster, and one modality in particular named Neuro-Linguistic Programming (aka NLP) provided me with significant healing. I shall describe this method in some detail after sharing my account of having come to need its benefits so desperately.

Throughout this book there is reference to a person named Father Skotek/Skotek, also known as Father Sko, Sko. To clarify, using the full name or nickname tended to be a trigger as I wrote and read the combination. It is not uncommon for re-traumatization to occur when seeing a title in front of the name for those who have been abused.

Within these pages, I will use the terms God, Universe, Universal Life Force, Creator of All That Is, and the One, all with the same reference to unlimited love, unlimited compassion, unlimited energy, and unlimited abundance of health, grace, and blessings. This is my higher power, one that we all have, and one from which no one is ever actually disconnected. That may not immediately resonate with some readers, but the reality is that we are all connected to something far greater than ourselves. And, we are connected to one another, so that if I were to deem some other person bad or negative, then I would effectively deem myself as such, too, because we are all connected to Christ Consciousness, or as it is also called, light consciousness. Each of us is his or her own universe. Each, one’s own healer. Each, one’s own spiritual counsel. Each, one’s own master. When one begins to realize this, one no longer needs any intermediary connection to the higher powers of the Creator. It is inside us. It is through us. It is around us. It is us.

Furthermore, the incredibly supportive galactic beings known as Pleiadians have been with us for a very long time on this planet, carrying forth messages, codes, and activations that are needed to initiate a utopian matrix of harmony, love, and peace.

So what does all of this intriguing material have to do with my life story? It is directly related to the crushing darkness that engulfed my being and tried to quash my very soul, but a darkness that I have largely overcome. This, then, is my honest account of having fallen and arisen too many times to quit now.

I should like to conclude this introduction by sharing a message that I channeled from the beneficent Pleiadians while drawing up this account:

So little in nature can be accurately expressed in terms of black and white. Most everything contains a variety of gray shadings. Nonetheless, humanity has persisted in looking upon the natural cycles in an oversimplified manner as life or death, ebb or flow, light or dark, good or evil, all to its practical and spiritual detriment. Everything just simply is, and no amount of philosophical wrangling changes that.

As you ponder this, consider that the One, the Creator, God created everything. With this understanding and knowing, the aspects of life represent where an individual is in his/her connection to that one Source. It is not how good or evil someone is, but rather how closely that person is connected to God, and the degree of closeness reveals the gray shadings between white and black. So, if one is in total harmony with oneself in unconditional love, it can be said that the connection to the I Am is both strong and vibrant, causing that person’s light to shine brightly for all others to see. Such a person becomes a beacon of hope to others who are finding their way back to the Source, to the All That Is. In this view of humanity, struggles present themselves in order to validate the paths being walked, and all life’s experiences lead to a personal crescendo. Therefore, what you could have deemed positive or negative experiences are actually steppingstones for each of us, steppingstones that illustrate the true strength lying at the core of every human walking this Earth.

Harmony with oneself is of utmost importance when shining light to others. Harmony comes from making peace with what presents itself in order to arrive at newer, higher places. When one creates harmony and peace within self, the entire world changes, because a positive ripple has been created in the cosmic energy flow.

It is peace, harmony, and love that humanity seeks upon this planet, even though it often appears otherwise. What must be realized is that these precious things do not come from others, nor are they the responsibility of others to provide. These things are the responsibility of each individual soul, and when anyone looks to others to stop the fighting or to right a wrong, he or she misses the point of why they are here upon this planet. Every person is capable of being the proverbial lone butterfly that alters everything else in the world for the better. Every person can bring about resounding improvements to this planet.

But, is not up to others to make this happen. It is up to each individual. By making the choice to rise above the pain, the loss, the anger, any one person can create a ripple leading out to all else. And when a relatively small percentage of humanity (some say as little as 10 percent) begin to evolve individual conscious streams, it leads to a so-called tipping point, bringing about a tremendous positive shift in the consciousness of all humanity.

This is occurring now. Many are coming into awareness that what you call higher vibration is necessary for things to change on the planet. This higher vibration can be equated to one’s deeper connection with the Source, the internal I Am. This is the path of light, if you need to understand it in those terms. Those who teach of the light versus dark, good versus evil are feeling the shifts that are occurring, and those shifts in human consciousness have been creating a genuine dichotomy, a more purely black-and-white view that actually does reflect the situation. One large group of humans is ascending to higher vibrations of love, harmony, and peace, while simultaneously, another group that aspires to attain enlightenment unfortunately continues to lead fear-based lives with old beliefs that have been handed down through generations and have mutated into areas you call darkness or evil. Fear is what binds a soul to the heaviness in and on your planet, so it is time for those of you who are ready...
