Live and Lived Supersitions

Words

Coded Words

First off, this may freak you out. There are so many things we can learn from our words. You know where that word scapegoat comes from? In ancient times they put all the sins on one goat and they took it out into the wilderness. And they thought if they sent the goat away with it came their guilt as well. This means, there are things you did not do have been blamed on you. I always find it is about making sure you don't carry weight that wasn't yours. 

What do coded words mean spiritually?

  • L-I-V-E spelt backwards is Evil
  • L-I-V-E-D spelt backwards is Devil
  • H-E-A-R-T If you put the H first is Earth

This is like a reverse spell, whereby it means that maybe something negative occurs when energy goes the opposite direction: life was supposed to be outwardly expressive, expansive and happy, what happens when timelines are reversed, energy is reversed? Our words in supersition terms are coded, everything to some degree in inverted. When that same 3D energy returns into itself and is driven by fear and ego, then that becomes negative. 

This parallels the description of an ancient Jewish mystical teaching (Sefer Yetzirah) an early text of Jewish mysticism, which says: The Hebrew word delight (oneg) becomes plague (nega) if the letters are reversed. It is from the Greek diabolos (meaning "slanderer, accuser, one who throws blame against another person"). This is the clearest concept of 3D consciousness.

The 3D mind cannot at times, hold its own pain so it projects it. It needs a scapegoat to carry what it cannot face. In fact, families, workplaces, and societies sometimes, in general will pick a human to absorb the collective shadow. When the accuser feels relief from a burden, nothing is repaired, because the cause of the pain was always inside. And so this too is symbolized by "Lived", spelled backwards, which reads "devil", for a life lived backwards is a life of the accuser.

Inversion has long meant darkness.

Throughout history, people have recognized that evil is the reverse side. The medieval person was aware that witches read words backward, and upside-down crosses became the profane symbol. In the 1980s, many believed that in music played in reverse, evil messages would be lurking, remember the film by Tom Cruise where the song played backwards, I can't remember the scene but it was about secret societies and a ritual type scene (eyes wide shut).

In 3D and 5D terms this indicated a Real Spiritual Truth: low consciousness cannot create anything original; It can only reflect or copy, and distort what is Sacred. Early twentieth century occultist Aleister Crowley had students reverse their thinking and walking in order to break conditioned patterns of the mind. You see how automatically conditioned your thinking was and choose otherwise.

That's what the switch from 3D to 5D is all about. When you notice your energy is working against you instead of with you (to blame, to resent, to fear) and turn your energy around to life, and don't fling accusations anymore, to take responsibility for your energy.

One Who Was Blamed.

For those who are scapegoats, this gives another kind of freedom. In 3D, it is that blame is evidence of guilt; however, in 5D, that's someone else's unhealed energy that's getting projected out. You do not have to carry it. You do not have to argue your innocence to people who want to try and pin it on you. It was a projection of what they needed you to be, not a true statement of who you are. In not accepting that which never was yours, you cease working completely in 3D.

Conclusion

The association of "live" and "evil" have nothing to do with ancient design. Their reverse spelling is an English spelling and this is not what I will call massively ancient. As a symbol, however, it points directly at the difference between 3D and 5D consciousness: On the 3D side of life, what goes backwards is fear, accusation, and blame; on the 5D side, what moves forwards is awareness, unity, and love.

And here is what they are not going to tell you. You were set free because they pushed you out. They are no longer carrying their sins. Turn your life right around, your wilderness is not your punishment. It's your freedom.
