Title: Insects and Dancing in the Afterlife? Post by Violet Sky on Jun 22nd, 2010 at 2:40am
Hi all, I have 2 questions I’m curious about and I wondered if anyone had any experiences on their non-physical travels that tied in with these questions.
1. Does anyone know where insects go when they die on Earth? In Gordon Phinn’s book it says they go to a sphere of their own, has anyone seen, heard or experienced insects in the nonphysical world? 2. Have you seen people dancing in the non-physical world? If so would you share your experiences. What type of dancing was it? What music were they dancing to? Was it something you have never seen the likes of before or was it very familiar? I’d be grateful of your input into these questions and very interested to hear what you have to say. Thank you, sending love, Violet Sky :) |

Hi Violet Sky,
I've learned that insects are in this physical realm to gather experience/information which is sent to another sphere to beings that cannot tolerate Earth's conditions. We happen to be here also but do not interact with the insects in non-physical spheres. Regarding dancing, it's a favorite activity of many humans when they go out of body to move in the non-physical realms! In Partnered Exporations a group of humans go OB (out of body) and will meet somewhere and celebrate. Group circle dances like folk dancing are often chosen but partnered dancing is fun too. Also while OB it's possible to meet those already crossed over into the afterlife and sky-dance with them. In my experience their style has been sort of a swish and sway / float, nothing too quick or jerky since non-physical forms are less rigid, more like a fluid or gas and also feel the magnetism of others more than in physical life. They don't have emotions as we do in the physical so their attitude toward dancing can be different than ours. Are you comparing answers here to an experience you've had? :) Bets |

Hi Bets, Thank you for your reply, it's very interesting.
No, I haven't had the experience of these questions, and haven't read much about it in the many metaphysical books I've read that’s why I’m curious to find out. Another reason is that, being a novice gardener; I have been ‘disposing of’ many insects recently (which I absolutely hate doing and seeming to be asking forgiveness for it constantly!) I wondered where there souls (if they have them) traveled to in their transition. I’ve heard about plants and animals being in the afterlife but not insects. Also I absolutely love to dance, and I was so hoping that there would be dancing in other realms, I understand what you mean about the difference in attitude towards dancing, seeing as there is no negativity in the afterlife and there only is love, beings won’t need the emotional release that it gives us when we dance here on physical earth. I wondered Bets if you remember where you read your information about insects, I would be intrigued to learn more. And the dancing there sounds wonderful! Thank you so much for your information Bets, sending love, Violet Sky. :) |

Hi Violet Sky,
Recently there was a discussion here about insects and there were a variety of comments. I hope those posters will post again here because you deserve to hear the others' ideas. My information came from a meditation session I had when I asked questions of my Guidance about insects. I've not seen it written anywhere. If insects do have souls you'd think that would be discussed. I was told they were somewhat like a robot. Yes, you make a good point about dancing in the non-physical. It's not emotional, except that there is a steady magnetism-like energy between entities. Bets |

Hi Bets
I've just worked out how to do an extensive search on here, and searched the word ‘insects’ it came up with some interesting posts! Some time ago I read ‘Discover Atlantis’ by Diana Cooper and I have managed to find some relevant paragraphs again. This is what she said about two what I believe to be extremely undesirable insects: Mosquitoes: Mosquitoes are not divine creatures, they are astral entities. People send out thoughts all the time. In low frequency times, when humans were intensely irritated they projected their anger and frustration powerfully into the ethers. This eventually became a thought form, which materialized into matter and the mosquito was born. Like all dark forces, mosquitoes continue to serve us by rousing our irritation or by being attracted to us when we are annoyed. Flies: Flies are also astral entities, created by the buzzing, angry thought forms of humans. They are the downside of a human’s power to co-create with the Divine. Once Atlantis fell, the world started opening up and people traveled. The ecological issues that had been developed in pure Atlantis were no longer followed. Waste became a problem and with it flies spread and proliferated. I’m not sure of how much of this I actually believe, but there is one thing I do know, those squash bugs are still sucking all the best sweet juices out of my squash! >:( I would be very grateful if someone could maybe ask for more guidance on insects, I’m unable to do that myself at the moment. I’d love to learn more, seems a strange subject I know, but I’m intrigued and more information would be greatly appreciated. ;D Thank you again Bets for your reply :) VS |

I find those explanations really hard to believe. :-?

Hi, Violet Sky. I think there are some insects in the afterlife, if you can see them. I think there are bees, in particular, but I haven't yet seen any others. I would hope there would be a few magnificent beetles. However, I don't believe the 'dog eat dog' world exists in the 'nicer' places. What I mean is, I'm not sure the nature of the reality there supports that. Not for me, anyway.
Dancing, assuredly. I suspect existence itself is a dance there, that the fluidity of the 'way of being' feels like a dance, because there are no restrictions there, through gravity, or time, like there are here. You can fly as fast as you want, even 'materialize' in a completely different place, stop in your tracks, and certainly dance in many ways. Your appearance can change because you exist as a kind of energy in the afterlife, and you can take on the characteristics of what you are imagining. For those who want to experience love, dancing in the afterlife is something you can definitely do. There are circle dances and gatherings of all kinds. You may have a sense of only one other 'being' with you, or many, sometimes an infinitely large number of beings. For me, I find that there is no actual 'boredom' there, because things change after a while, of their own accord. |

Me too!! In fact the whole book is pretty far fetched!

Title: Re: Insects and Dancing in the Afterlife? Post by Violet Sky on Jun 23rd, 2010 at 1:35am
Thanks B2, although I haven't actually experienced it myself, from what I've read in the past, your comments seem to be a common theme. I seem to have concluded that as there is no need to eat or fight for survival, ‘dog eat dog’ as you say does not exist.
Most insects must just go somewhere else!? I guess with the dancing I'm still hoping there will be the enjoyment that I get when dancing in the physical world, I agree with you B2, when you are in the afterlife the whole thing will, I assume, be one long wondrous dance! VS |

A friend of mine had an ant infestation in her foyer and another friend told her she needed to "Honor them and ask them to leave...nicely". The next morning she did a meditation in the foyer, and stated clearly and "nicely" that she "honored them" , but they must now leave. She didn't see anything change so she thought it was time to go call the exterminator. Less than 20 minutes later the ants had diminished and within an hour they were gone and haven't come back. Sounds good to me.

I'm going to try and honor the squash bugs I have in my garden and ask them to leave...i'll keep you posted.
Thanks usetawuz |

Hi
;) I agree that's a good and wondrous method, but it has to be repeated, i find, when some new colony moves in. Bets |
Title: Re: Insects and Dancing in the Afterlife? Post by goobygirl on Jun 24th, 2010 at 12:07am
I suggest Captain Jack's Dead Bug Brew. It's organic and only targets those insects that eat the leaves. I'm starting to see japanese beetles around and I have an investment in my vegetable garden. I am very loving to animals and life, but I have a vegetable garden for financial purposes (the more I homegrow, the less I have to buy, and I'm a vegan and go through lots of veggies). Thus, these leaf chewing bugs are going to have to "bite it." LOL
I also made up a batch of homemade insect spray, but I'm not so sure it's that effective. Basically take 4 cups boiling water, about 1 Tbl of red pepper flakes, fresh or dried, one head of garlic, and one onion. Mince and stew overnight in the water. Strain and spray. It does stink, but like I said, not so sure of the efficacy. I only made it once and kinda gave up. Now I'm going for the captain jack's which is made from a bacteria. |
Title: Re: Insects and Dancing in the Afterlife? Post by Violet Sky on Jun 24th, 2010 at 12:24am
Thank you all for your information. I do believe that the honoring method will take some time as there are a lot of bugs, but I’ll be persistent as you say Bets.
Can you get the Captain Jack's Dead Bug Brew from any garden center? I too am growing a lot of vegetables, and like you goobygirl it is to save a little money, and also to try minimize the chemicals I would poison my body with every day with processed food. My tomatoes and squash seem to be the main attraction for bugs. I hate to kill them, but I do grow the food for us to eat, not for the bug population! ::) I think a few methods at once will do the trick, I’ll talk to the insects again tomorrow. |

Greetings.
I don't have any knowledge about insects and dancing in the Afterlife, but I do believe that insects have souls of their own, or are inhabited by beings that use them as vehicles of perception into the physical world. One time about a decade ago, I rescued a honeybee from drowning in my swimming pool. Later on while I was meditating on my raft, a honeybee came and landed on my belly. I strongly felt that it was the same bee that I saved; and that it came back to thank me. I sent it a mental message of "your welcome" and then it took off. I've had dreams sometimes with insects in them; some of which I communicated with telepathically. Rarely has dream communication happened with insects, but more often with cats, dogs, and other mammals. I think I'll investigate what happens to other animals and insects when I cross over. It could be very enlightening. Ralph |
Title: Re: Insects and Dancing in the Afterlife? Post by Violet Sky on Jun 24th, 2010 at 12:45am
Hi Ralph
Your post struck a chord with me straight away, as I had a similar experience. I was walking by the lakeshore with a friend, I saw a butterfly struggling in the water, It was far from reach but I managed to ease it out with a long stick. Moments later a butterfly hovered right in front of my face for a while then fluttered off, both my friend and I believed that it was the same butterfly that came to thank me, which made me smile. I often save beetles and other insects that land in the animals water troughs, and I always sense that they are so grateful. It would be intriguing to know more about insects in other realms. |
Title: Re: Insects and Dancing in the Afterlife? Post by usetawuz on Jun 24th, 2010 at 8:54am
I am reminded of the scene in Men In Black II where Tommy Lee Jones goes out of his way not to step on a beetle and it turns around and says "Thanks, man." It has changed me from an indiscriminate stomper into a more attentive walker.
And while I hope the honoring of the squash bugs works, there is another line of thought that says "a squash bug eats squash...they are your competition"...along the same lines that crab grass's role is to invade lawns and you must kill it to make it go away...I guess just honor it prior to spraying? My job is to find silver bullets to resolve issues between people...I do not have one for an insect issue as evidenced by my competing theories of bug eradication, but I look forward to hearing what works for you. Love and light, y'all. |
Title: Re: Insects and Dancing in the Afterlife? Post by Violet Sky on Jul 2nd, 2010 at 12:15am
Just and insect update...
I went outside and talked nicely to the squash bugs, this was nearly a week ago. Unfortunately I haven't seen much of my garden as it's just too hot for me outside (I'm originally from England and I have been in the US a year, the Mississippi heat doesn't agree with me!), so it's left up to my husband to collect the veg and deal with the bugs until it cools down a little, so for the time being the squash bugs have been following their name sakes! I suppose I’ll share the squash with the bugs for now (well the bugs that get away from my husband that is!) ::) VS |
Title: Re: Insects and Dancing in the Afterlife? Post by usetawuz on Jul 2nd, 2010 at 11:35pm
Violet...I lived three years in Jackson and its heat does not compare to that of ne Florida...while you may get the heat and stillness, you still do not get the daily deluges of two inches of rain that make everything moldy inside a few days, or the lawns turn from a nice bright green to a strange brown of fungus...Mississippi was a wonderful alternative to ne fla, and I've made a life in both. If you are running out of new people to meet pm me and I will send you to some interesting folks in Jackson, if that is convenient.

Title: Re: Insects and Dancing in the Afterlife? Post by Jehovah on Jul 3rd, 2010 at 7:58am
This is only sort of on topic but I wanted to share the sad experience...
I try to hold all life as sacred, including parasites like tape worms. (Note that if I or a pet had tapeworms I would of course kill them dead regardless of my personal feelings.) However, the story I wanted to share is that I was opening my book to read some and a tiny little ant had wandered in between the pages because of the book mark. I did not want to accidentally squish the ant between the pages so I decided to give him a little flick with my finger to get him out of harms way. Unfortunately, this tiny microscopic ant was actually not as strong as I thought and instead of flicking him away he was obliterated completely. I can't help but think of myself as an all powerful hand of God that attempted to reach in and help but instead I was too powerful and so I destroyed instead of letting things run they're natural course. |
Title: Re: Insects and Dancing in the Afterlife? Post by Violet Sky on Jul 3rd, 2010 at 2:35pm
Hi usetawuz
Yes it's very true, the heat in Florida is much worse, I visited some of my husbands relatives there and I couldn't bear it (the heat that is - not the relatives ;)). I'm just not used to the heat. Thanks for the offer to meet new people, I may take you up on that some time. |
Title: Re: Insects and Dancing in the Afterlife? Post by Violet Sky on Jul 3rd, 2010 at 2:43pm
Hi Jehovah
I have done the very same thing, I have felt the guilt and the power over those tiny living creatures. I often apologize too when squashing the bugs, this makes me wonder what happens to them after that. Although sometimes fear takes over (e.g. mosquitoes/wasps) but even then I feel guilt. It would be nice to know they went some place glorious after I had put them to there death, don't you think?! |
