Creator was asked about the book, Thirty Years Among the Dead, by Psychiatrist Dr. Carl Wickland, published in 1934. Creator said, “This, indeed, is a valid and accurate reporting …” In the book, a discarnate spirit spoke about conditions in the spirit world surrounding Earth through Mrs. Anna Wickland (Dr. Wickland’s wife and trance medium). The spirit reported, “The Earth is a little globe. The globe has a sphere around it. The distance between the world of spirit and the world of matter is about sixty miles. This sphere is the world of the spirits in darkness. … Conditions that cannot be described, the most hideous, the most fiendish, so ugly that I cannot describe them.” On October 13, 2021, legendary 90-year-old actor William Shatner traveled into orbit on the privately built and operated Blue Origin suborbital rocket. Shatner wrote in his recent book: “… All I saw was death. I saw a cold, dark, black emptiness. It was unlike any blackness you can see or feel on Earth. It was deep, enveloping, all-encompassing. … It was among the strongest feelings of grief I have ever encountered. The contrast between the vicious coldness of space and the warm nurturing of Earth below filled me with overwhelming sadness. … It filled me with dread. My trip to space was supposed to be a celebration; instead, it felt like a funeral. I learned later that I was not alone in this feeling. It is called the ‘Overview Effect’ and is not uncommon among astronauts.” Is this common ‘Overview Effect’ a result of entering the sphere of ‘outer darkness?’ That by being in literal proximity physically to this realm of extreme spiritual suffering, do the astronauts involuntarily ‘tune in’ and feel directly this unseen collective anguish? What can Creator tell us?

This question, and the phenomenon it is describing, is being interpreted correctly here. There, indeed, is much sadness in outer space. That is quite real and it is being expressed by millions of the lost and the demonic who struggle in spirit form and have no idea what to do to save themselves. So this is a completely understandable perception from being in a zone of sorrow and intense grief, and that is a feeling that people are sensitive to, for the most part, from personal experience. Keep in mind there is a collective unconscious. This has been described by human philosophers and psychologists who astutely recognize there is some unconscious process working to link up with the tribe, so to speak, the greater human family. That sense of belonging is innate in the human spirit and is designed in. After all, you are members of a human family from the creation onwards, and while you have differing schedules, timetables, and destinies, coming and going as you do, for the most part, incarnating into the physical realm to do your duty, you nonetheless take the pulse of the collective unconscious that is a part of the human family as a whole and individually as contributed by each member. That body of consciousness is a kind of reflection of ongoing angst as well as moments of joy, but if you think about the totality of humanity, on average, there are as many sufferers as happy human beings given the variability of life and all it brings, times of happiness and joy and times of sorrow, not to mention those culturally deprived and financially limited, and perhaps suffering the consequences of that poverty in lacking healthcare support or even basic hygiene in primitive living conditions, or being homeless altogether, wandering about with nowhere to go to be safe or even protected from the elements. So there is much darkness to be seen whenever tapping into the collective consciousness that is unconsciously observed, meaning it is not an activity of the conscious mind directly but something that goes on with lower levels of the mind and then seeps into conscious awareness, as an emotion, without knowing the precise mechanism for that sensing. So we have discussed many, many times the fact that differing levels of the mind exist. The deep subconscious, discovered by your channel to be the largest part of the mind but unable to communicate directly with the conscious self, suffers alone in recognizing many, many difficulties from the past, especially having access, as it does, to the akashic records to see individual prior lifetimes of challenge and suffering, more commonly than not, for everyone. So life is inherently a burden to the largest part of the mind and there are many emotional consequences of that reality. It explains a lot about angst, the puzzling state of background anxiety believed to be normal and a sort of ground state of human experiencing, that even when there is nothing tangible that threatens, people have uncertainty and unease without apparent explanation—that angst does have a cause. When people, on a conscious level, tune in to get a sense of deeper states of being, the collective unconscious serves as a kind of weather vane, so to speak, and will reflect the collective mood of humanity and, particularly, in seeking a weather report from a point of unease, the power of intuition is such it will seek and successfully find something that matches. It is much like doing a search on Google; those keywords you have in mind in doing the search are what determines the output that appears on your computer screen. So the intuitive inspection will bring up, in all likelihood, something matching an inner doubt more so than something positive. Having done this again and again and again, everyone has much time spent getting in touch with the darker side of human emotion as a kind of aggregate human construction and output of consciousness at work. That creates a kind of habit, a reflex activity, through endless repetition in the course of a lifetime. So when one is journeying into space there will be moments of reflection and, in going to the collective unconscious, will also be in close proximity to the darker collective of input from consciousness trapped in limbo—the millions of beings who are truly lost in space, in between realms, not in the physical but not in the heavenly realm either, and literally lost in space, in a zone of misery and despair from the many who suffer endless torment. Humans have a feel for what loneliness is like, if only experienced fleetingly. The many who languish in endless torment from loneliness are the closest in resembling the despair of the lost human souls, those spirits in limbo who need outside help in order to progress at this point because they cannot do it on their own.
