Archetypal Stages of Spiritual Evolution

I’ve been reflecting on a message from Gregg Braden about the ancient scroll that speaks of the seven great battles between the Sons of Light and the Sons of Darkness. As I let the imagery move through me, I began to feel it weaving itself into the language of my own Living Attributes Codex.

What once appeared as an external conflict now feels like a map of the inner landscape, where each so-called battle is really a moment of initiation. The Sons of Light and the Sons of Darkness become archetypal forces—my Higher Purpose Archetypes calling me toward coherence and the Flawed Character Archetypes tugging at old wounds, habits, and patterns that obscure clarity. When I view it through the spiral lens of my practice, it becomes impossibly clear. This ancient story describes the internal spiritual evolution every human is being summoned into now.

As I listened to Greg’s interpretation, I felt the familiar stirrings of my own Animal Wisdom: the Lioness reminding me to stand in my sovereign strength, and the Hawk calling me back to perspective when my mind becomes crowded with shadows. Each battle described in the scroll mirrors these instinctive movements—light meeting the unlit, wisdom meeting distortion, presence meeting the remnants of my conditioned self.

Gregg Braden says the final battle is not won by force but by divine intervention—and I hear this not as an external deliverance, but as the moment the Legions of the Heart begin to speak louder than the unhealed narrative. It is the moment when my Radiant Self, that Living Goddess within, steps forward and reminds me: You are not bound by the limitations you inherited.

Whenever I try to overpower my inner darkness, I only make the shadows sharper. But when I return to the 12 Light Centres, a spiral of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet, pink, magenta, silver, cyan and gold, I soften. I expand. I remember what the ancient ones were trying to say. The “battle” dissolves into understanding. This is the divine intervention: the movement from fragmentation back into coherence.

True divinity, he says, is the capacity to rise above perceived limits. For me, that is the entire purpose of the Living Attributes Codex. Each Primary Light Attribute, each Archetypal Gateway, each breath into the spiral is a way of reclaiming the soul’s original architecture.  When I engage these practices of the breath, the heart and the spiral, I feel the old programming loosen. I feel myself stepping into a wider field, one where I am not fighting for my light but allowing it to lead.

There are still days when the inner conflict feels vivid, almost mythic. Days when my Flawed Character Archetypes tug at old threads, and the mind tries to predict outcomes from past wounds. But in those moments, I return to my Quest Gateways. I listen. I breathe. I let the Angel Songs rise within me. And slowly, my inner world softens. I remember that the darkness is not an adversary but rather a dormant chamber in the temple of my psyche, waiting to be illuminated.

In this way, the message from the ancient scroll becomes a living text, not a story of war but a story of awakening. A reminder that humanity’s evolution will not be achieved by force, but by coherence. Not by conquering but by re-membering my divinity. Not by dividing, but by returning to the radiant wholeness that lives beneath every archetype, every flaw, every breath.

As I walk this path, I feel the vibration of the Living Attributes Codex. And I know the ancient wisdom aligns with my Harmonic Seed and Blueprint Spiral, and I arrive at a place that is both familiar and new. An alignment that reminds me that I am a living spiral of consciousness and that I have within me the original spark of divinity, which gives me the ability to transcend. 

Heart to Heart, Elizabeth 

The Seven Battles: Overview

In the War Scroll, the final apocalyptic conflict is described as a series of battles between the forces of light (the Sons of Light) and the forces of darkness (the Sons of Darkness). These battles are both literal and symbolic, representing the struggle between divine order and chaos, truth and deception, consciousness and ignorance.

1. The First Battle: The Battle of Awareness

  • Symbolic Meaning: The awakening of consciousness. The Sons of Light begin to recognise the presence of darkness within and around them.
  • Modern Interpretation: This battle is about becoming aware of the illusions and deceptions in the world and within oneself. It is the first step in spiritual awakening.

2. The Second Battle: The Battle of Identity

  • Symbolic Meaning: The struggle to remember one’s true self. The Sons of Light must reclaim their divine identity.
  • Modern Interpretation: This is the battle against false identities imposed by society, ego, and trauma. It involves remembering one’s soul purpose and divine origin.

3. The Third Battle: The Battle of Will

  • Symbolic Meaning: The test of resolve. The Sons of Light must choose to align their will with divine will.
  • Modern Interpretation: This battle is about overcoming doubt, fear, and temptation. It requires the courage to act in alignment with truth, even when it is difficult.

4. The Fourth Battle: The Battle of the Heart

  • Symbolic Meaning: The purification of the heart. The Sons of Light must cultivate love, compassion, and forgiveness.
  • Modern Interpretation: This is the battle against hatred, resentment, and division. It involves opening the heart and healing emotional wounds.

5. The Fifth Battle: The Battle of the Mind

  • Symbolic Meaning: The mastery of thought. The Sons of Light must overcome deception and confusion.
  • Modern Interpretation: This battle is about discerning truth from falsehood, breaking free from mental conditioning, and cultivating clarity and wisdom.

6. The Sixth Battle: The Battle of the Body

  • Symbolic Meaning: The embodiment of light. The Sons of Light must anchor divine energy into their physical form.
  • Modern Interpretation: This is the battle against addiction, disease, and disconnection from the body. It involves living in harmony with nature and honouring the body as a temple.

7. The Seventh Battle: The Battle of Unity

  • Symbolic Meaning: The integration of all aspects of being. The Sons of Light must unite within themselves and with each other.
  • Modern Interpretation: This is the final battle of separation versus oneness. It involves transcending duality and realising the interconnectedness of all life.

Gregg Braden emphasises that these battles are not just external but internal. The real war is for our humanness and divinity. He speaks of a message encoded in our DNA, “God eternal within the body”, suggesting that our divinity is the source of our power in this ancient struggle.

I also see the Seven Battles of the Sons of Light and the Sons of Darkness are archetypal stages of spiritual evolution. They represent the journey from ignorance to enlightenment, from fragmentation to wholeness. Each battle is a test of consciousness, calling us to align with truth, love, and unity.

The Separate Self Is Not The Truth

One of the most fundamental teachings in Vedanta and in the awakened heart of Buddhism is this: all human suffering arises from the hallucination of a separate self.

The separate self is the great untruth. It whispers of “I” and “mine,” erecting walls where none exist, and writing stories upon the infinite chapters of our Being. From this arises fear, grasping, and despair—because if one is apart, one must defend, compare, protect, and eventually mourn the inevitable dissolving of that which was never real.

The truth is luminous in its simplicity: the separate self does not exist. What we call “I” is a fleeting pattern, a story woven by the mind, and a mask worn by the Eternal for the play of experience. Beneath it, only wholeness exists.

We are one breath, passing through countless lungs.
We are one body, clothed in many forms.
We are one mind, dreaming through infinite imaginations.
We are one consciousness—an ocean appearing as waves, yet never ceasing to be the ocean.

When this recognition awakens in us, suffering begins to unravel, not because life becomes easier, but because the false centre around which pain gathered has vanished. The wound was never real—only the forgetting of wholeness made it ache. Thus, awakening is not the attainment of something new, but the remembrance of what has always been. We return to our natural state: vast, radiant, indivisible.

And it’s the belief in competition and scarcity that acts as the insidious culprit in our decline. These are the beliefs that are born from the hallucination of separation. When we imagine ourselves cut off from the Whole, we begin to fear there is not enough—enough love, enough beauty, enough life to go around. We begin to measure, compare, and grasp, forgetting that abundance is the very nature of existence.

Competition emerges as a false law, urging us to prove our worth by rising above another, when in truth, we can only rise together. Scarcity becomes the shadowed story of a world that has forgotten its Source, when in reality, the Source is inexhaustible, overflowing, and ever-giving. These illusions—of “not enough” and “not worthy”—erode our joy and fracture our collective spirit. They turn sisters into rivals, brothers into adversaries, and nations into warring factions. Yet all the while, the truth waits patiently: there is no lack in the heart of Oneness. In the eternal breath, nothing is withheld.

To awaken is to remember this—competition can dissolve into cooperation, scarcity can dissolve into sufficiency, and the myth of separation can dissolve into the living reality of unity. Imagine a world where the illusion of competition and separation has lifted, and humanity remembers its unity and belonging.

  • Without the shadow of scarcity, generosity becomes our natural way of being. We share not out of duty, but out of joy, knowing that to give is to circulate the life-force we all partake in. The myth of “not enough” dissolves, revealing the truth: there is always enough when life is honoured as sacred and held in balance.
  • Without the burden of competition, collaboration flourishes. No longer trapped in the illusion of climbing over one another, we discover the deeper rhythm of rising with one another. Innovation, art, and wisdom bloom—not as trophies to be hoarded, but as gifts to be offered to the Whole.

In this awakened world, leadership is no longer a grasp for power but a genuine desire to be of service. Success is no longer measured in accumulation, but in the depth of connection, coherence, and contribution. Communities become circles instead of hierarchies, woven together in mutual care and recognition.

Here, the body of humanity beats as one great heart.
The mind of humanity shines as one great clarity.
The spirit of humanity awakens as one great flame.

This is not fantasy—it is remembrance. The seeds of such a world already live within us, waiting for the soil of our willingness and the sunlight of our faith. When we choose unity over division, sufficiency over scarcity, and cooperation over competition, we step across the threshold into the radiant future that has been calling us all along.

The Seven Sisters

Guardians of Benevolence

Yesterday, as I sat with my canvas, I felt a quiet but insistent call — an invitation to paint with the intention of Benevolence.

I didn’t know what would emerge; it was only that this piece needed to hold the vibration of love in its most generous and unconditional form.

As the layers built — red, gold, and soft blue — seven figures began to reveal themselves. They appeared not through conscious design but as if they had been waiting beneath the surface, ready to be seen. When I stepped back, I felt an almost electric knowing:

These were the Seven Sisters.

A Celestial Memory

The Seven Sisters have appeared in countless stories across cultures — as the Pleiades, guardians, mothers, guides of light and wisdom. Seeing them take form on my canvas stirred a deep remembrance in me. I recalled my dream many years ago, where a rather large John Lennon was stretched out like the reclining Vishnu. 

It was a succinct dream that had a clear message. He turned his head, looked me straight in the eye, and said, “You are one of the Seven Sisters”, so when they appear in my painting, a quiet grace, a sense that they are not distant beings but kin, intimately connected to the awakening of the sacred feminine on Earth.

Their energy felt maternal, but not in the limited sense of human mothering. This was Mothering as a divine archetype — expansive, protective, and benevolent. They reminded me of the Holy Mothers, the Marys, and the Queens of Benevolence I write about in The Living Goddess Code.

The Holy Mothers and the Mary Lineage

As I painted, I felt the presence of the Marys — Mary the Mother, Mary Magdalene, and the holy feminine lineage that holds the codes of sovereignty, compassion, and restoration. These archetypes are not bound by history or dogma; they are living frequencies that flow through time, calling us back to our original wholeness.

The reds in the painting speak of the sacred womb, the place of creation and transformation. The golds glow with divine light and the holy. The blue veils feel like the etheric bridge between the earthly and the celestial — a reminder that we are always held, always guided.

Benevolence as a Living Code

Benevolence is more than kindness. It is an active, strengthening energy that heals, restores, and harmonises. It asks nothing in return because its wholeness is made visible.

As the painting was completed, I understood that these Seven Sisters — these guardians, these mothers, these holy queens — had offered themselves as an invocation of benevolence for all who encounter them. Their presence feels like a sacred vigil for humanity, holding space as we collectively remember our light.

A Sacred Month

We are in the Month of the Sacred Mother — a time to honour the holy feminine, listen for her whispers, and notice where she asks to be embodied in our lives. That timing was no accident. This painting, this transmission, belongs to this moment of awakening.

I share this now because I feel these Seven Sisters, these Holy Mothers, are not just for me — they are a reminder for all of us:

That we are loved beyond measure.
That we are guided, even when we feel lost.
That benevolence is our birthright, and our gift to the world.

May their presence bless you as they have blessed me.

Becoming Your Own Authority

Expression of Your Higher Purpose

There is an energy beneath all things — the Unified Field, the divine intelligence that is connected to every star, every cell, every soul. It doesn’t choose sides or judge; it simply reflects and magnifies the frequency you are holding. What you embody becomes the vibration that the universe responds to, amplifies, and mirrors back to you.

This is why the path of a Living Avatar — the path of coherence and embodiment — is both powerful and liberating. It calls us to step into sacred discipline: not the striving of an enslaved mindset, but the steady devotion of alignment.

Only the disciplined are truly free.

Not disciplined in the sense of busyness or endless self-improvement, but disciplined in presence — in choosing, moment by moment, to return to wholeness.

When your body, mind, and spirit move in harmony, you step into the frequency of your Higher Purpose Avatars — the archetypal expressions of your divine potential. And from this space of coherence, the Unified Field begins to meet you with clarity, guidance, and grace.

Embodiment Over Information

The Living Avatar Code teaches that wisdom is not meant to remain an idea; it is meant to be lived.

In a world saturated with information, it’s tempting to mistake knowing about something for becoming it. But only embodiment transforms frequency. Only embodiment shifts your field so the universe can magnify your truth instead of your wounds. When you embody your Higher Purpose Avatars, you are no longer seeking validation outside of yourself. You are standing in the living memory of who you have always been — radiant, free, and whole.

Interrupting the Old Cycle

Here’s what I know for sure: when you are experiencing resistance or a reaction, the best thing to do is quickly and quietly switch it to a revelation. What it’s showing you is the depth of the emotional and hormonal addiction — an old pattern, and addiction of how deeply it has been entwined into your life.

When you step into a new timeline and begin to embody your Higher Purpose Avatars as a whole, these old patterns may rise to the surface at first. Not to shame or blame you, but to offer you choice and your freedom.

You may have done some inner work to dissolve a karmic imprint that caused the emotional addiction, but the body — with its chemical and hormonal wiring — may still echo the old cycle.

And so, like with any addiction, awareness becomes the key. In each moment, you are offered the sacred invitation to choose again and again—until the new path becomes your truth, and the old path dissolves into nothingness.

Living as a Conscious Creator

This is the essence of the Living Avatar Code:

  • To embody your Higher Purpose Avatars, not just understand them.
  • To choose resonance over reaction, even in moments of challenge.
  • To release what you cannot control, and to focus on the vibration you wish to magnify.

This is how you move from information to transformation and from seeking to seeing.

Wholeness Is Your Freedom

When you are whole — when the body, mind, and spirit move as one — you become your own authority. You no longer seek permission from the world outside you. You no longer chase, strive, or compete.

And in that space of radiant coherence, the Unified Field responds. It reflects your wholeness back to you, magnifying it in ways both subtle and miraculous. Opportunities open. Relationships align. Life begins to flow with the quiet certainty that you are exactly where you are meant to be.

This is the living expression of Karma, to your Path of Dharma. This is the frequency of your Living Avatar: not a future state, but a present embodiment.

The Angels of the Heart: A New Story and Song for Humanity

Hello, beautiful Souls, 

Today, I am filled with awe and gratitude as I share the profound messages from the Angels of the Heart that have recently graced my life.

It’s a journey that spans time and space, revealing connections from five past lives—A Nobleman in Salzburg practising illuminism, a young Temple Priestess in the Pantheon in Rome, a young women in Prague, a child in France who to went to Canada and a healer scribe in Egypt . Exploring these other realms of my life has truly inspired me, where threads of my past selves weave seamlessly into the present. The Angels of the Heart are beings I recall having had glimpses and contact with during these past lifetimes; they, curiously, have guided my path and shaped my destiny.

In 2006, the creation of my Living Attributes System and practice took an unexpected turn when I received a powerful message about the summoning of an Army of Angels. Even as I write, I am reminded of my visitation from Archangel Michael, who asked me, in my own way, to aid humanity’s spiritual evolution. I now see that Michael’s Message and the message from the collective legions of Angels of the Heart are connected and I believe are from the same source.

Little did I know then that this celestial alliance would play a pivotal role in my journey of self-discovery and transformative work with my clients at this current time. With utmost clarity, the Angels of the Heart have conveyed that sacred beauty possesses profound power. They express that this divine force must be reinstated in the minds and hearts of humanity for its evolution.

As we delve into the majesty of these celestial beings, it becomes evident that the Angels of the Heart are intricately linked to our Higher Self lineage. The journey to connect with these benevolent entities requires past life integration and the creation of our mythos; understanding our story reveals the sacred beauty that connects us to higher realms.

At the core of this celestial connection lies our spiritual Heart—the conduit through which we can truly feel the presence of the Angels of the Heart. It calls us to embark on the path of a pure heart and humble spirit, a transformative journey that transcends the mundane and opens the gateway to the divine.

I hear a message from my past urging us to release our grip on the need to orchestrate every aspect of our lives. 

“Simply let it all happen, and when it does, be with it all.” 

In the language of the Angels of the Heart, this translates into a call for faith and alliance, a vibrant acknowledgment that our connection with these celestial beings thrives on the vitality of our belief.

The heartening of our words and actions becomes an act of participation and obedience—paying homage to our true Self, Spirit, and Soul. In the presence of the Angels of the Heart, we unearth the true power embedded in this statement. And through the Holy Spirit within us, a divine force that invites us to immerse ourselves in the sacred beauty of our celestial power and surrender our pure hearts to the divine light of creation.

Where galaxies swirl, and stars weave tales of wisdom old and new; there exists an army of benevolent beings known as the Angels of the Heart.

A celestial army numbering 12 legions, these collectives have 6000 or more Angels that embody divine versions of unity, integrity, sanctity and purity for the purpose of restoring and maintaining Sacred Beauty. The number 12, a sacred symbol in various cultures, takes on a profound significance within the legions of the Angels of the Heart. Each legion contributes a unique hue to the cosmic palette, creating a harmonious balance that mirrors the universal truth—love and beauty is the language that binds all of creation.

In their presence, every breath becomes a silent prayer and every step a sacred blessing.

The EUDAIMONIA nurture the seeds of well-being within every being, urging them to reach their highest potential. In its care, individuals find the strength to pursue lives rich in purpose and meaning, guided by the unwavering belief that true fulfilment lies in realising one’s flourishing.

Their presence and influence fosters rekindled bonds and guides individuals to the warmth of shared memories. Through the cosmic dance of The RETROUVAILLE, beings find solace in the joyous reunions that breathe life into the eternal cycle of connection and love.

Embracing the reality that you have these generous guardians within and around you is the key. The Angels of the Heart tirelessly uplift your spirit and guide you towards higher vibrational states. Their presence becomes pronounced when you consciously choose attributes like love over meanness, admiration over judgment, and understanding over insensitivity.

The interplay of past lives, personal mythos, and the guidance of the Angels of the Heart has, once again, unveiled a deeper understanding of the archetypal and angelic forces that shape our destiny—a dance between our history and the potential for transformative growth, a delicate balance that requires acknowledgment and intentional engagement.

As we embark on this journey, let us embrace the love and light the Angels of the Heart have bestowed on us. May we recognize the sacred beauty woven into the fabric of our lives and strive to restore its power in our hearts and minds. In doing so, we align ourselves with the cosmic beauty of evolution and open the gates to a higher state of being.

Heart to Heart and Blessings Abound, Elizabeth —And thank you for reading my blog.

The following Prayer is for the purpose of aiding you as you move beyond the veils of your fear and into the realm of the Angels Of The Heart.

Young Eva and the Model Maker

The following is a new extended narrative and timeline that I have crafted into my past life as a young woman in Prague and Paris. – I share this version with you, as it provides a clear example of what’s possible when creating an extended story for a past life that needs some tender loving care and a new timeline.

It was a world where unrest hung heavy in the air, A train journey marked a change, a path we’d share. Engaged for six months, my Beloved and I, Dreaming of a life in Prague or town nearby.

Closer to the station, the crowds began to swarm, Fearing for their future, in the chaos and storm. We stepped off the train, a sea of people deep, Contemplating our next steps, a promise to keep.

An older woman, draped in black taffeta and lace bonnet, Approached with urgency, a mission upon it. A wallet, notes neatly placed, she handed with care, “Give this to Rebecca,” her plea filled the air.

“See the child with blonde curls, the blue coat so fine, Give this to the woman, named Rebecca, in line.” My Beloved dashed away, a promise to fulfill, As the crowd surged forward, a chaotic, wild shrill.

“Go, I’ll wait here,” I said with despair, As the next train loomed, more people to bear. He ran down the platform, a figure in the tide, Then, a wave of chaos, and he was taken, no place to hide.

His head and arms above the crowd, a final wave, Frozen, overwhelmed, alone, his absence to crave. The train departed, hope dwindling with its steam, Alone in a troubled land, with a shattered dream.

Unable to return, a country in disarray, A decision made, a new life to convey. With a purse and a secret compartment concealed, To Paris, I journeyed, my fate to be revealed.

Jewels from my mother, my grandmother’s grace, Guiding me in this uncertain, uncharted space. A pouch held a locket, our love sealed in gold, A memory to cherish, a story to unfold.

Paris, a city of possibilities and dreams, A haven for artists, or so it seems. Guided by Domitelli, a woman so wise, Connections and pathways to artistic highs.

I painted, sewed, wrote, and styled, A metamorphosis in a city beguiled. Greta’s lessons, skills from a childhood past, Prepared me for a life that would forever last.

From a life of privilege to one of participation, I embraced change, a new determination. In a morning arrival, Paris embraced my soul, A new chapter unfolding, making me whole.

Roger and Domitelli, anchors in my storm, Guided me to trust, to a place that felt warm. A community of creatives, a family found, In the heart of Paris, my roots were bound.

Days turned to years, contentment in my heart, In Savoir Faire, a hat shop, my creative start. Dressing hair, crafting hats so fine, A paid endeavor, and a life to design.

Parisian streets, a canvas within my stride, With friends so dear, in joy, we’d confide. Trips into the countryside, champagne and delight, A new life blossoming in the City of Light.

In Pierre’s studio, a sanctuary to paint, A refuge from the world, a haven quaint. Embracing art, my soul set free, In my cathedral of creativity.

Days off were my canvas of my Parisian delight, The Ritz, and the Hôtel de la Païva, both in my sight. In my summer lounge, where thoughts could linger, I saw a familiar face, and memories trigger.

A man who resembled my Beloved so, I followed, with silent steps to know. As he spoke to a close friend, a truth was revealed, A reunion in Paris, a love to be healed.

“Eva?” he stammered, his face filled with surprise, Tears welled up as I met his eyes. Against all odds, we found each other anew, Embraced in the Hôtel de la Païva, love’s rendezvous.

Stories shared, of journeys and quests, Separated by fate, reunited, our love’s bequests. Triumphs and challenges, as time passed by, In a small Parisian chapel we did fly.

A life woven together, threads of truth and loves heart. Married in joy, a future to chart. In later years, a cottage in LaPounche’s embrace, Nature’s serenity, our lasting grace.

Wrinkled hands, hearts content, Reflecting on a life so well spent. Adversity faced, resilience found, joy lost and rediscovered, and love profound.

In the quiet of old age, under wisteria and bees, We closed our eyes, hearts forever at ease. Souls entwined, a story complete, A bouquet of joy, love’s victory sweet.

Heart to Heart, Elizabeth
