My ultimate goal is ascension, or illuminaton. From my experience in the few true astral projections, that is also an acceptable goal, until and unless I obtain the Ascension which many people are talking about. I am convinced that New Earth already exists in Eternity, and we can go now to escape this world of Illusion, the Matrix, if you will.It is a matter of raising your vibrations to the level of the fifth dimension, having New Earth as an intention, and holding that vibration, once you get there. I love Suzanne Lie's books that follow a Pleiadian couple from their time in our future, when their planet is ascending. Because of some castrastrophy on Earth, in which they did not deliver aid that would have helped us, they have come back from their future to help us in our Ascension. I am now on the last book of the series, called The Journal, which is a story of a human woman who realizes that she and her husband are star beings, and he has to leave her to go back to his Star Ship, leaving her to raise their daughter. Her daughter Liza feels neglected and unloved, because her mother is always focusing on how to release herself from her human body, and does not give her daughter the love she needs. Liza grows up, marries, and begins having problems with husband, and is at the point of leaving him, when she learns he has had an affair. In distress, she leaves him with their two children, and travels to visit her mother at the house that she grew up in, but finds that her mother is missing. While searching the house for any clues, she comes across her mother's journal, and begins reading it. After a few days, she begins to see that her mother believes she is a star seed, and that she longs to join her husband on the Ship, and that she has many issues because she realizes that she has been a failure at being a human being and a mother. Then her husband comes looking for her, and together, they began reading the Journal, and as they read it, they heal their own relationship, and eventually their whole family. All the books in this series are so illuminating about how we humans can begin healing our wounds, and contains many insights into the Ascension process. I highly recommend this series. The name of the first book is A New Home,
