What's with the Starseed name?

I've been on many of Paul McCarthy's workshops learning a whole heap of stuff and I realised that no-where in my blog did I mentioned or make reference to the Starseed bit in my blog title....and I am sure you will say You are totally not from this planet mate!  (and I say...Neither are you, dude!)

So below is Paul McCarthy's definition: (see my useful links page for his website)

Starseeds are beings that have experienced life elsewhere in the Universe on other planets and in non-physical dimensions.  Some of the time their motivations to come to earth are to help and serve others as well as the planet herself. Sometimes the reasons are more to do with learning about such things that are not present where such the unique growth opportunities here on earth experienced through the human condition.  These beings very often have gifts to share with others such as in the areas of healing, channeling and spiritual education. For starseeds it is important that they reconnect to their star origins and star connections and fulfil their life missions.  These are the shared and common desires of starseeds. In addition they may have some of the following characteristics:

• A deep interest in spirituality
• The ability to spiritually grow rapidly when needed as if they have done this before
• A realisation that earth is not their true home
• They feel drawn to outer space, the stars and science fiction
• Attributes such as being artistic, sensitive and possessing higher consciousness
• Starseeds can have difficult and challenging lives
• Dreams or memories of places not on earth
• Experiences of physical and non-physical encounters with star guides

Some starseeds choose only to incarnate on earth in periods of more enlightenment and expansion such as in Atlantis, Ancient Egypt and now. This is because their skills and gifts are only of use when consciousness is raising. As such these starseeds are less tied to the earth and retain some memories and abilities that come from their extraterrestrial lifetimes. For these “new age” starseeds their roles as spiritual teachers, channels and healers require them to remember their star origins and purpose on earth. This becomes a strong motivation to seek information about who they are and why they are here. They are supported by their star guides in opening up to this information.  These motivations are not typically shared with most people who do not yet feel these strong stirrings to grow and become self realised.

In addition the term “seed” implies that the starseeds are contributing something that will grow and assist others here on earth.  Indeed many starseeds carry high spiritual energies and consciousness which are contributing to the ascension of consciousness in individuals and in humanity as a whole.  

You what Lily? (I hear you laugh)

I went on a Starseed workshop a few weeks back which was a great intro (or re-introduction) to what Starseeds are all about.  We ALL originate from 'out-there' somewhere and earth is seen as the 'kool' school for learning all about life stuff, where many lessons can be learnt through different lifetimes.  This includes bad and good stuff as well as the middle of the road experiences.

The majority of us are here to have these earth experiences to develop and grow and there are those of us that are "Starseeds" who have come back for specific 'period of more enlightenment and expansion' as Paul says above.  This is me apparently, here to help in seeing others through to the 'Golden Age' that is being talked about.  I know that is quite difficult to imagine a better way of life with all that's going on at the moment, but I do feel that things will ultimately be for the highest and greatest good and that we will learn about the truth soon.

I had confirmation about where I originated from and a reading on what my soul purpose is here on earth this time which was not only mind boggling trying to explain this to someone (I can hear you say 'wahhh, really?') but the message was spot on in terms of what whats going on in my life! I seem to be on track as it were... I just did not realise that I had been fulfilling my soul purpose already in some form or another for quite some time!  And what is my soul purpose?...well that will spoil the fun if I told you :-p  I am sure the people in my life will know the way of the Lilstar.

The Lil*star bit? Well, that's just developed from people calling me Lils then Lilster then my Reiki Master started calling me Lil-star and so it stuck! 

So what about you? Do you want to know where you are from or what this is all about?  Maybe not, I have no idea what 'school modules' you have signed up for! Or maybe you just want few more 'qualifications' under your belt! All I can say is enjoy the 'school of life' and don't be so hard on yourself, there are no failures!
