Dimensions of Genesis (24 page)

A depression overwhelmed him. Sensing David
was uneasy, Michael stopped to allow him to rest and assimilate to
his changing density.

Dizzy, David asked, “What's wrong with
me?”

“As we move down through the dimensions, your
vibration adjusts. The lower the dimension you travel to, the lower
your frequency will become.” Michael explained gently. “You will
become more accustomed to the vibration in time, but that's also
where you have to be careful.” The large angel warned.

“Careful...why?” wondered David as his head
began to feel better, more focused.

“If you stay too long in the lower
vibrations...while trying to help the lost souls...you may become a
lost soul.” Michael said seriously. “You good to go?”

David nodded.

Slower now, they continued their movement
down the tunnel. The tunnel itself, David noticed, was dimmer.
While still a dazzling brilliance, it had diminished since they'd
left Heaven. It had also become more transparent. David could see
people, places, shadows and shapes outside the walls.

On Earth, the visual world was horizontal,
whereas these worlds were vertical. Driving in a car, the towns and
rolling hills streamed past, parallel with the car. In the tunnel,
however, David watched worlds shimmer past his sight as though he
were moving down in a glass elevator.

The lower they went, the dimmer the lands
became. The glorious colors of the higher levels had now faded to a
mundane and dull shade. On the other side of the tunnel lie dark
cities of souls, worlds of the dead, dwelling within the layers of
creation.

“All these people...are they lost?” David
asked, a sad tone seeping into his voice, something he'd not
experienced in the fifth dimension. Only now, that he was
descending in frequency was he experiencing more unpleasant
emotions.

“Some are lost, some are trapped and some are
simply punishing themselves. These people are trapped in the fourth
dimension, limbo.” the angel replied, a sad look upon his face as
he scanned the barren landscape of the lost. “Others are stuck
within Earth's atmosphere. There are many layers to both Heaven and
Hell.” Michael added.

“Hell?” Inquired David, a bit shocked. He
hadn't really thought about the alternative to Heaven since he'd
arrived.

“Yes, but it's not how they depict it on
Earth. There's no horned creature, no Satan...per say.” the large
angel explained. “Heaven and Hell are a choice, a state of mind,
chosen by the soul.”

David looked confused.

“When Zophial came to you after your physical
death, she asked you whether or not you wanted to go home.
Correct?” Michael asked, his silver eyes looking at David.

“Yes.”

“You obviously chose to go with her into the
light or you would not be here. Some choose to go home...others do
not.” The angel elaborated, a look of despair crossing his chiseled
face.

“Why would they choose not to go to such a
wonderful place?” It simply didn't make sense to David why a soul
would chose to suffer in a lower frequency, than go to a place of
pure ecstasy.

Sighing, Michael stared out at the souls
stuck within the abyss of dark dreams and replied. “They simply do
not believe they’re worthy of coming home. The dark energies
succeeded in making these beautiful beings believe they were
worthless, guilty of sin or worse...” Michael's deep voice trailed
off as he watched one of the wandering spirits lay upon the ground
and wail. “Free will David, that's what the universe is all about.
A soul only grows if it chooses to. It only gets nourishment if it
drinks the water. It will only go home if it truly believes it is
worthy. You must help them David, help them see what they really
are, help them know what glorious beings they truly are...”

Michael then spoke cryptically, his face
stony. “Only you can do this David...there aren't many souls like
you left.”

David wondered, as he had from the beginning
of this journey, why he'd been chosen for this mission.

He now avoided glancing outside the
transparent walls. It was too disturbing to see the darkness that
pervaded the souls of the lost. He couldn't watch the pain and
suffering any longer.

Following Michael, David felt his body
getting heavier and heavier. It was very uncomfortable. Depression
settled into his aura, his inner light felt dimmer. He didn't like
it one bit.

Looking up, he could now see the end of the
tunnel emerging. The end was completely black as they approached. A
vaguely familiar feeling crept into his senses as they
progressed—anxiety.

Upon reaching the dark threshold, David was
suddenly disorientated. The pitch blackness that had engulfed him
was so foreign compared to the fifth dimension's blanket of
illumination.

Michael steadied David mentally, sending him
a wave of positive energy. David focused his energy for a moment,
and then looked around.

David gasped as his senses took it all
in.

The tunnel had ended many millions of miles
from the Earth. Now floating deep in the fathoms of space, David
observed the Earth in all its magnificence, from a cosmic
perspective.

The Earth, surrounded by an enormous aura,
was teaming with energy. Flowing in and out like an ocean.
Lavender, blue and luminescent white danced around the planet like
a wave of Northern Lights.

Millions of white tunnels, like the one David
and Michael had arrived in, extended from the Earth into the far
reaches of space. Tiny sources of light, souls could be seen
traveling within the wormholes, some ascending and some
descending.

The entire scene reminded David of one of
those static balls he'd played with in science class. The probing
sparks of miniature purple and white lightning extending from a
central orb. Tapping the glass from the outside, the static
electricity would be magnetically drawn to his finger, sending a
painless charge through him and making his hair stand on end.

The energy, spirit and magnetism the Earth
radiated was so immense, it brought tears to David's eyes. Had he
known while he was alive, what a beautiful, glorious being this
creature was, he never would've allowed it to be treated the way it
was.

It was alive. It emanated an ancient wisdom.
Being in its very presence filled you with a sense of awe and
respect. David could feel the millenniums it had lived.

“Pretty cool, huh?” Michael said his voice
reverent with respect for the blue planet.

David nodded, unable to fathom any
description worthy of this ancient entity.

“She is Gaia.” Michael explained quietly,
“Think of her as...God's wife.” He chuckled as he ushered David
forward.

“She's...beautiful.” David finally said as
they approached her.

“Yes, but...she's dying.” Michael said his
silver eyes sad.

“Dying?!” David suddenly felt panicked.

“Yes. The dark energies of the Earth are
succeeding. She is directly affected by the energy imbalance.” The
large angel explained his voice thick with building contempt for
the evil energies that were harming Gaia. “She can only fend them
off for so long, she is tired.”

David felt an immense sadness sweep through
his body as he gazed at the planet.

“Can she be...healed?” David inquired, a
spark of hope building in his chest.

“Yes.” Michael answered, a smile forming on
his handsome lips. “She needs to give birth.”

“Birth? How the heck does a planet give
birth?” David asked, puzzled.

Pausing at the outskirts of the atmosphere,
Michael explained.

“The universe is always growing, expanding
outwards.” he said, waving his large arms open in the air. “It's
like a giant rubber band, stretching in all directions.” He looked
at David to see if he was following.

Satisfied, he continued. “For the Earth to
continue living in a growing universe, it must evolve. Now, think
of the rubber band stretching and stretching, it's eventually going
to get a little thin, right?” He paused for moment, knowing this
was deep information.

“At the peak of the expansion, two things can
happen...one, the universe could keep stretching until the elastic
band snaps. This means a dimension has collapsed...” Michael said
solemnly. “Or, the universe can add another elastic band, or
dimension, strengthening it and allowing it to continue growing.
Does that make sense?”

“I think so...” David paused, trying to
imagine an enormous elastic band expanding as far as the universe
could reach. “How does this relate to the energies? How can the
negative energy prevent the birth of a new dimension?”

Michael stared off into the distance as he
compiled his thoughts.

“All evolution is based on raising the
vibration of matter. Raising the vibration creates light. In a
matter of speaking, lightening. It's all based on physics, quantum
theories, and string theories...you name it, gets pretty
complicated after a while.” Michael looked at David with a
lighthearted roll of his eyes. “But basically, when the negative
energies are dominant, like they are now, the state of the universe
is denser, volatile and out of balance. When the universe is
balanced, it’s lighter and flows better.”

David nodded in understanding.

“Now,” Michael continued, “when the elastic
band has reached its maximum, the universe sends an energy wave
through space, signaling that it's ready to grow. The wave washes
over galaxies, planets, moons, stars...everything.”

“Where does the wave begin?” David wondered
as he pictured a huge tidal wave of energy rippling through
space.

“Where the wave begins is a mystery...even to
me. It is the essence of creation, the Source itself.” Michael said
with respect in his voice.

David was shocked there were things even
Michael, the Archangel Michael, didn't know about the universe.

Michael continued. “The wave will wash over
everything, spreading the seed of genesis. Earth, is like a mother
preparing herself for gestation. When the wave arrives, her
energies must be balanced or she may perish in the wake of the
tides.”

“So, how exactly does the Earth...give
birth?” David asked, sincerely curious.

“Ah, but that is where the miracle of
creation comes in! Faith, David, we can't know everything all of
the time.” Michael commented with a grin.

“What will happen to the humans if the Earth
gives birth?”

“Their vibration will increase, just as yours
did when you ascended.” he explained, “The most incredible part
is—they’ll be reunited with the dead!” Excitement twinkled in the
angel's silver eyes.

“What?” David exclaimed in disbelief.

“Yah, as the Earth creates a new dimension,
every living being on the planet will simply...fall asleep. When
they wake up,” Michael added, giddy, “the veil that kept the living
from seeing the dead, will evaporate. They'll literally wake up to
their deceased loved ones!”

David contemplated this deeply. At first, it
seemed, well, creepy. He imagined how freaked out he'd be to wake
up to his dead mother or grandparents. Could be startling, to say
the least.

“So...the dead...they're not going to be
all...gross or anything, will they?” David asked, thinking about
stories he'd heard of ghosts, like Anne Boleyn, walking around with
their heads cut off or something.

Michael laughed, he laughed really hard.

“No! They'll have ascended as well, so
they'll look just like you, a fifth dimensional citizen.”

“Oh!” he comprehended.

“Don't worry so much David! Have faith! Let's
get going! I'm excited to show you the surface!” Michael took off
and soared ahead of David, his vast wings extending to their
fullest as he swooped downwards, spiraling and spinning as he
descended.

“Show off.” David muttered with a smile as he
followed the impetuous angel.

Baffled

With tears streaming down her translucent
face, Lily ran from her childhood room and down the stairs to the
living room. Sitting in her father's armchair, she wept as she
struggled to understand.

She felt so betrayed. How could they? How
could they live with themselves? Why were her parents condoning
this?!

None of it made sense.

What am I going to do? Lily thought as her
soul ached. I can't stay here and watch Gabe and my sister live out
the life that was meant for me.

Tormented, she stared at a family photo for
what felt like hours. Examining Quinn's face, Lily wondered how her
own sister could do this. It was no secret Quinn had always
harbored a crush on Gabe, but that gave her no right to act on her
feelings. And Gabe! That shocked her even more. He'd never shown
any romantic interest for Quinn.

Finally, Lily decided it must have been the
only way Gabe could bear to be away from Lily. Maybe he needed
Quinn to fill that gap in his heart. She did resemble Lily.

But it was Quinn who baffled her. How could
she? What was her excuse? It was just plain—rude.

In that moment, Lily laughed out loud and
decided she was going to haunt the hell out of her sister.

Yah! That's what she needs! A good,
old-fashioned haunting. I'll scare the crap out of her! Lily
thought maniacally. Smiling with self-satisfaction, she started
thinking of all the ways she could antagonize Quinn.

That's when she heard a car pull up
outside.

Curious, Lily walked to the porch to look out
the front door. Peeking through the window, she was shocked to see
a couple making out in a car at the end of the driveway. The man
groped the woman as she kissed his neck. The windows even steamed
up as they fraternized.

Squinting, she was unable to see exactly who
was in the car. She finally resolved to pass through the door and
investigate. Careful to watch for any shadow snakes, Lily made her
way across the driveway. Approaching the car, she peered through
the passenger side window.
