Soul VS Higher Self

I received a comment/question in the last post on “Listening to Guidance”.  The reader asked if the soul and the Higher Self were the same.  My response is too long to answer as a comment, so here is my explanation.  Some of you may use different terminology for what I am about to explain, but the basic premise is still the same.

What is soul?  Soul is strictly a 4^th dimensional construct.  It carries all of the patterning for our DNA, past lives, inherited diseases and physical difficulties, present life trauma, in addition to the map of our physical bodies.  The etheric body, or the blueprint for the physical, is generated out of the soul. 

When one experiences a trauma in early life, the soul is capable of absorbing that trauma into a part of itself and splitting that part off.  This is called soul loss.  Thus, the soul is capable of fracturing since it exists in the 4^th dimensional realms of polarity.  Once the trauma is healed, that exiled soul part can come back and merge with the rest of the soul.  Because we exist in a 3D/4D world, we are all fractured to some extent.  Children can fracture very easily since they are so open and malleable until they get older.

When one is born, the soul enters the physical form of the baby just before, during or after birth.  While the fetus is in the womb, the soul can pop in and out occasionally and is always around observing.  Because the soul can absorb traumas, it can do so if the fetus experiences some difficulty, and quite often if the mother is experiencing a trauma, too.  That is why trauma while one is in the womb can affect one’s whole lifetime. 

If the soul does not enter the newborn baby at the right time, there is a still birth.  The soul can also decide that they have had enough of the whole experience, and leave before the baby is born.  Then one can have a miscarriage.  Either way, it is all part of the predetermined contract! 

The Higher Self exists in the lower bandwidth of the 5^th dimension.  It is a unified field of energy that is non-polarized.  The HS orchestrates the incarnation of the soul from a higher level.  When one leaves the body for the last time and is able to pierce the Great Void between the 4^th dimension and the 5^th dimension, one’s Higher Self is there waiting on the other side to welcome you.  It is a graduation of sorts, and you no longer need to engage with the inherited and past life patterns that the soul was carrying. 

There is a hierarchy of sorts as one works their way up the dimensional levels back to the exit point of our universe.  Higher Self deals with just one soul unit.  The next level is the Oversoul, which manages several Higher Selves.  Above that is the Monad, which manages several Oversouls. And on and on.  If you picture your palm as an Oversoul, each finger would be a Higher Self, and the tip of each finger would be the individual soul that is generate by the Higher Self. 

So you can see that we as human incarnations are the end point of a process that comes from Source, into our universe, and all the way down through densities to where you are right now.  We are the end product, but at the same time, we are the summary of all of our experiences all the way back to Source.  One can also on some level connect with their Oversoul and then gather experiences from one of its other Higher Self and soul experiences.  This might explain how people can recall an incarnation as an extraterrestrial from another planetary system. 

So there it is in a nutshell.  Below are some photos from today’s hike.
