I can't remember exactly where I came across this topic, but I think it was on this site somewhere. When I read the word "starseed" I was immediately intrigued and went to a bunch more sites. Most of the sites describe starseeds as people that originate in another realm, dimention, planet or what have you, and incarnate on Earth for the purpose of raising the energetic level of those around them. Among other things.

When I read that my heart skipped a beat, because I've been told in the past that I'm not "of this world" but my skepticism is kicking in- it seems very REAL to me, these people existing, and the more I read the more it clicks, but I want some confirmation from others- suggestions of books to read? Experiences or stories?

Thanks for reading and responding!

Just teasing you, I couldn't resist! I'm not making fun of something important to you...

Personally I have no knowledge about the subject but given time I'm sure others will have something less irreverent to offer to you!

*sigh* well... this is an excellent thread. first time ive read it, i dont know why... i just saw it there and didnt read it, till now.

eightdegrees, i can relate. i was sort of telling juni in the higher self thread how i feel... basically the same as you. i honestly dont feel i am part of this world, or at least meant for it. i am NOT suggesting i am 'special' or magical or anything, its just that the truth is, im very faery. see that other thread, we talked about it there and within context i dont think i come off as such a weirdo

my nickname faery is my real nickname. i feel very much like i just... dont get this world. im not overcomfortable in it either. i never have been. when i was a kid i was much different than any other kids, argh i dont want to bore you all with moi. i am uncomfortable talking about myself like im something great too, and id be the last to suggest that i was special. indeed, if am AM not quite of this world, i see it as a curse more than something to be proud of.

ive had a lot of strange things happen to me too... even here in this forum. ive had a lot of interesting things said about my chart, from someone who really knows the intricate points of astro. if astro had degrees, hed have a PhD.

its a lonely life, being different.

i understand completely. perhaps we can help each other in some ways.

i have always felt like i never fit in anywhere. i have usually felt misunderstood. when ive let certain aspects of my personality out, i have been looked at like i was a freak. i never thought i was a 'freak', it was just me being really me. to 'survive' in this world i have coping skills. ive built a wall around myself of normalcy so to speak. i just dont get into any deep spiritual discussions with people, or let them into my secret self. 'when in rome...'

i would love to talk with you and anyone else who has felt 'different'. we should compare notes, i feel this is a safe place. besides, if people think we are crazy, hell with em, we have each other jk jk i doubt anyone would think we are crazy.

i have had many strange things happen to me in my life that ive never really understood. might be fun to let em out, after all this time.

i am 33 and i have been through a lot... and feel i am able to deal with the world now,a at least at arms length. i still dont like it its all about having grace under pressure (and im not referring to the description in lindas numerology analysis, but simply the actual phrase). we have to learn to *be* us but also *protect* us. we also have to have a stable ground to stand on, because otherwise we might find ourselves adrift. i have an earth grand trine in my astrological chart, so luckily i have that strength to use.

to be honest i never really talked about it before because i didnt want to further set myself apart from others, but i didnt start the thread... so its ok :P and theres others too! so its all ok

do you ever find that you have to keep people at a polite distance, because otherwise you get extremely drained? i have that. i withdraw a lot because of it. having a shower helps too, like in star signs, because i believe that, that it cleanses our aura. i should have a shower now... because-

i am extremely tired right now and off to bed but i cant wait till we can talk more!

take care and hugs!

There are many people that feel just like you do and I think that is why we have found each other here at Lindaland.

It's not that I feel special in any sort of way. It's just that ever since I was a child I never felt like I belonged here at all.

When I read Star Signs, it was the first time I ever felt like there was someone out there who thought like me. Finding Linda was like "coming home".

Love and Light,

Hope you have a good sleep! Here...it is party time. It is a town's feast all weekend so we're about to go out and eat and meet our friends.

Oh and,,,I too am a lot by myself. In fact going to the movies or city is a whole lot of people to me! I find it difficult to cope with in life. The sounds, the smells etc..I just talked about it to my love last night. People quickly find you boring because you're not one of them and you don't join! They simply don't understand ya, and it is a simply don't want to be understood. Or isn't it? Well....hahahaha I will probably never be even if I wanted to! Then let me be boring and go home to be by myself. I love everyone anyway!! Thats why my mingling with people always goes shallowish, because of that. But when I wanna go, I wanna go.

I completely understand what anafaery and mercy were saying- I don't in any way want to appear to be setting myself in a higher class by saying I feel different, and that could be why I'm hesitating to attach to this starseed thing, because I don't want it to just make me feel special and not be true. But my instincts tell me it is true, and that it will become clearer to me when it has to.

Specifically, as a kid I think I struggled with a lot of those "games" kids play that are mostly meant to just torment one another, and are not really games at all. Don't know if anyone can relate, but I'm sure there are a few. I remember being young and just being completely baffled by WHY anyone would treat anyone they were?? And now, on a national scale, I am baffled and appalled at the way our government treats its citizens- WHY would they not want what is best for everyone? why is it this way? why does it have to be all about money??? why why why? don't they see that they're killing everyone and everything?? dont they CARE? In any case, I wonder if in my heart I remember a place where people care about each other more than they do here.

Right, so websites...
www.spiritsource.org/starseeds.htm is a good one for basic info. There is one other really good site that now I can't find but I'll keep looking. Search for starseeds on Yahoo, there's a bunch. OK I gotta go for now, but let's keep this thread going!

hmm... so what now? i ABSOLUTELY CANNOT just start believing in space aliens. ANYTHING i believe has GOT to be tested and researched to an absolute logical conclusion. i do NOT believe anything untangible without putting it through a rigorous testing period. that said, i dont throw this stuff out of hand simply because its a little strange either. so i guess the next thing to do is read all that i can about it. i am going to do some self introspection too... see if i can find some answers. i have always known that my aims were above and beyond this worlds, where society in general seems to just do whatever they can to get money money money even if it hurts someone else, ive always been one of the ones who has had a more communal attitude. we should all be sharing!

with the wealth that this earth has, NO one should go without the basics in life, whether they are able to work and contribute or not. so a person cant or wont work, they are still a human!!! thats always been my belief. it wouldnt change were i an 'oprah' or a 'rockefeller'. its such an integral part of my being... money wouldnt change it. as long as ive got *my* basic needs taken care of i would give until i bleed. i actually already do. i certainly give of my time, if i see someone lonely and hurting i usually take them under my wing, unless i feel any sense of threat from them. i HAVE to protect myself in this life, as i have been used a *lot*. that had to stop. luckily getting older has helped there.

just to throw something into the mix... i have long wondered if this was a hallucination of mine, or misinterpretation, or if there was anything to it.

when i was a kid, i dont remember now how old, but i believe it was around the time when i started getting my menses... *ahem* anyway i was driving somewhere with my aunt uncle and cousin. i think they were driving me home from spending some time with them. as we were driving home, it was dark, and there were a lot of huge trees. i live in the lower mainland of british columbia, near vancouver. im in a suburb of it. at that time things werent developed like they are now, and it was like a road through a forest, really. in this region it is coniferous? the evergreens? anyway i was sleeping or something for awhile, and i woke up and looked at the sky. i swear that i saw a ufo. it was like a bright light in the sky. that memory i have had for a long time, although i had totally forgotten it the past few years. it came back to me as i have been thinking about this stuff. it didnt scare me either, back then. nor does it now. i would be perfectly willing to accept if it was indeed a ufo or something. id like to believe that i was fortunate to get a glimpse of a far off star. that would be very special to me. i like the idea of planets much more than space aliens. aliens kind of scare me... when i read whitley streibers books a few years ago they TERRIFIED me. that bright light didnt. it seemed magical almost, not something to be feared. it was SO bright and i had this instinctual knowledge that it wasnt supposed to be there. it was there for only brief moments, then it disappeared. maybe it was a comet? i dont know. spose theres no way to know, now. i do know that i was the only one that saw it.

something else to mention... in the movie 'the matrix' i always felt a kinship with the lady who tells neo his destiny. hehe. youd think id want to 'be' like trinity, as shes hot and she ends up with neo who is also hot but no, i just really felt drawn to her. heck im just like her, cept im this stupid white colour. a little younger too ^_^

You might want to check out a few books by a woman named Doreen Virtue. I must admit, I'm not sure what to think about incarnated elementals, starseeds, etc, but I find it all interesting. She has a website at http://www.angeltherapy.com and a message board linked from there (she doesn't post though). She goes into the basics in Healing with the Angels, and apparently goes further into the subject in Earth Angels.

Which path is easier, though, I wonder

indeed. i thought i was gay (lesbian) at one point. i have had a couple of relationships with women... i came to the conclusion that i was bi. i really dont see any difference between a relationship or sex between a male or a female, with me. they are both just loving a person, and having a physical expression of that love. if i were single, i wouldnt be looking for one of either sex. if i was attracted to a man or a woman, it wouldnt make a difference to me personally. its the person that counts to me, and both forms of making love are also beautiful if indeed there is love involved. if there isnt? its none of my business

word. i can relate to all of that.

i have been thinking about this for awhile now. you know what? if we are space aliens, fine. if we are merely just really sensitive imaginative people, thats really fine too. im not afraid of anything about who i really am. ill be proud of who i am in any regard.

please though, yes, lets keep this thread going!

*omg, lol!!! i tried to respond to this thread, so i typed all that, and hit enter. then i come back to the pc (threw some food in the toaster oven) and it says 'no one is registered with the username you provided'. i hit back and i had entered my other name that i sometimes use, abstractica! haha how very abstractifaery of me :blush:
