Commentary on “The Fallen Angel”

Lucifer: A Story of Light, Darkness, and Redemption

When you hear the name “Lucifer,” what comes to mind? Most of us think of the classic “fallen angel” story—a tale of rebellion, darkness, and evil. But what if there’s more to it than that? What if Lucifer isn’t the villain we’ve been led to believe, but rather a misunderstood figure playing an important role in our spiritual journey?

Some years ago, I came across an article entitled, The Fallen Angel: A True Story About Lucif er, that completely shifted how I view Lucifer. It painted a picture of Lucifer not as the embodiment of evil, but as a being who chose to descend into darkness to hold space for humanity’s evolution. It’s a story that asks us to look beyond judgment and fear and see Lucifer in a whole new light—quite literally.

Understanding “Aspects”: Receiving All Parts of Ourselves

In our journey of awakening, we encounter a concept known as “aspects.” These are fragments of ourselves—versions of “you” that were created through various life experiences, emotions, and roles across many lifetimes, including the one we’re living now. Some aspects hold memories of joy and strength, while others carry old wounds, limiting beliefs, or patterns.

Discovering the Power of Awareness and Sovereignty

As we deepen our awareness, we begin to notice the dance of energies around us—how they move, interact, and impact our sense of self. This is what Tobias refers to as the “sexual energy dynamics,” a profound teaching about energetic boundaries and sovereignty. And while it’s not about physical sexuality, it’s all about the exchange of energy: how we give it away, how we take it in, and how we can become more sovereign.

One of the most eye-opening realizations on this journey is recognizing when and how we’ve been giving our energy away. It often happens subtly and when we least expect it, leaving us feeling drained or disoriented. But this isn’t about blame or victimhood. In fact, the concept of victimhood is one we release as we become more aware.

You see, in our old, unconscious state, we’re easily swayed by every wind of doctrine, as if we’re at the mercy of forces beyond our control. Yet in this new consciousness, we understand there are no victims. We see clearly how old energies operate, and in this clarity, we step into our true power.

Breaking the Hypnosis of Belief Systems: A Call to Awaken

Belief systems hold humanity in a trance. How can we break free and awaken to new possibilities?

The Comfort of Belief Systems

Belief systems are intricate constructs, carefully designed to offer the illusion of comfort and stability. They provide humanity with a way to resist change and hold tight to the status quo. The so-called universal truths they establish create a sense of certainty. But this certainty often comes at a cost: complacency and an unwillingness to evolve.

The Atrophy of Truth

When humans cling to a specific truth, it begins to atrophy. For eons, grand institutions have been built to protect and preserve these beliefs. Christianity, Judaism, Islam, and other religions have all set their foundations on specific truths, turning them into immutable laws. Yet, this preservation has often led to conflict, with people dying or even killing in the name of their God—whether that be God, Allah, or Yahweh.

The Influence of Religious Overlays

Over time, belief systems have become the bedrock of societies. They inform not only spiritual practices but also governance, education, and cultural norms. Western cultures are primarily influenced by Christianity, while Middle Eastern societies are shaped by the overlays of Islam and Judaism. Eastern cultures, meanwhile, carry the influence of Hinduism, Buddhism, and even newer ideologies like Communism in places like China and Vietnam.

The Hypnotic Effect of Belief Systems

These religious and philosophical overlays create a sense of cultural superiority, often leading to division and conflict. Mass consciousness is deeply influenced by these beliefs, with modern media acting as both a tool for enlightenment and an instrument of continued hypnosis.

No Judgment, Only Awareness

Our intent is not to judge or instill fear. Humanity already faces enough fear, and our goal is not to add to that burden. Instead, we aim to raise awareness and encourage reflection. How do these entrenched beliefs impact our journey as a species? Are they holding us back from evolving into something greater?

Humanity’s State of Deep Hypnosis

The believers in these systems are not deficient in intelligence or insight. They are simply in a state of deep hypnosis, cultivated over centuries. This state of being is not irreversible. There is hope, and there is a way out.

The Possibility of Awakening

Emerging from this hypnotic state is possible. It starts with awareness—recognizing the systems that hold us and understanding their impact. Questioning these belief systems does not mean abandoning faith; it means being open to new perspectives that inspire growth rather than limit it.

A Choice to Awaken

The choice to awaken lies within each of us. It’s about breaking free from the hypnosis of past beliefs and stepping into the realization of our true potential. Humanity’s evolution depends on our willingness to question, to grow, and to be conscious creators of a new reality.

You Are a Sacred Site: The Truth of Your Own Divinity

We’ve all heard it before—people talk about traveling to sacred places like Sedona or Machu Picchu to have a spiritual experience, to “find themselves” or tap into something greater. And while those places are undeniably beautiful and energetically vibrant, here’s something important to consider: you don’t need to be in a special place or under specific conditions to be in your center.

The truth is, you are a sacred site—yes, you! It’s a pretty powerful realization when it finally clicks. You carry all the wisdom, truth, and divinity you’ve been searching for right inside of you. Going to those beautiful places might be a nice boost, but they won’t get you any closer to your own enlightenment. That’s because everything you’re looking for is already within you.

Sometimes, we can get so caught up in the idea that spiritual growth happens out there—that certain places hold the key to unlocking something magical within us. But the deeper truth is that focusing too much on external energies can actually take us off course. When we put all of our attention on these external experiences, we forget to go inward.

Now, don’t get me wrong—places like Sedona or Mesa Verde are amazing, and their energies are very real. But here’s the thing: they are not more sacred than you are. Yes, you read that right! You, in your beautiful human form, are just as sacred—if not more so. Why? Because you are conscious. You can be aware of your divinity.

You don’t need to be anywhere special to discover this. You are already a Divine Sacred Site. The journey of realizing who you are doesn’t require a plane ticket or a mystical aura—it’s about uncovering the deep wisdom within yourself.

And let me say it again, because it’s important: you are God also. That spark of divinity you might be seeking out there? It’s already within you. Every single moment of your life, whether you’re sitting at home or standing in the middle of the Grand Canyon, you are just as connected to your God-Self. You are a divine being, and it’s time to fully recognize that.

So, if you’ve been searching for answers outside yourself, maybe take a breath. Allow yourself to settle into the truth that you are the sacred site. You don’t need to chase after something you already have. You’re it. You’ve always been it.

The more you hear these words, the more natural they’ll feel. The more you’ll recognize their power. You are a Divine and Sacred Site.
