What Every Spiritual Warrior Needs to Know Right Now

If you haven’t noticed, we are living in unprecedented times. We are standing at a critical crossroads in the evolution of humanity.

The world appears increasingly polarized and divided. However, beneath the surface, this is not just a political or cultural crisis; it is a battle for consciousness, and ultimately, a spiritual war.

This is the time when each soul is asked to choose what it aligns with.

So, what is a spiritual warrior?

A spiritual warrior is someone who accepts any challenge and meets this moment in time willingly, not with blame or complaint, but with purpose, focus, and the commitment to do the inner and outer work required to stand for something greater than themselves.

A spiritual warrior shines Light into Darkness as a servant of the Divine, however it may express itself through their unique purpose and dharma.

To support those of you who feel this calling, I’ve created a live Masterclass on Saturday, October 11th, where I’ll be diving into the deeper spiritual context of what we are facing and what is required of us now.

In this masterclass, we’ll explore:

- What the Time of Transition truly means from an esoteric perspective
- Why this is the lowest point of the Kali Yuga
- Why we may see increasingly cataclysmic changes as part of a collective purification
- How to mitigate these upheavals and help make it a successful transition
- Why the splitting of humanity is inevitable

I’ll share insights into the hidden architecture of spiritual warfare, how hostile forces operate in and around us, why their interference is increasing, and the three key insights that must be understood in order to break free from the Matrix and align with the next cycle.

You’ll also be introduced to the 5 Core Pillars of Psycho-Spiritual Work, the foundation for the inner transformation required in these times.

This is not about spiritual bypassing, doom and gloom, chasing conspiracies, or relying on external activism or saviors.

It’s about confronting the unconscious within, discerning the forces that move through you, reclaiming your inner power, engaging in conscious soul evolution, and allowing the Divine to express itself through your life.

This Masterclass serves as a wake-up call, a compass, and an invitation into your own process of spiritual discernment, purification, and alignment.

As I often say, these are intense yet exciting times to be alive. So rejoice with a smile, and remember, on the deepest level, your true Self chose to be here right now.

Godspeed.
Bernhard Guenther

“The creativity you don’t express consciously will act as a demon in your life. Instead of creating, it will turn against you and destroy things in your life, like relationships and yourself.

Unexpressed creativity doesn’t die; it will get buried deep in the unconscious. On the surface of your life, it could show up in various compulsions and addictions. It can show up in love addiction, especially.

Creativity expressed becomes a channel for God’s higher wisdom and knowledge, it’s a way your higher self and angels can speak to you and guide you through inspiration, while creativity suppressed becomes a portal for demons.

This is why so many deeply creative people suffer sometimes, even to the point of suicide. Their daimon (creative guiding force) has become a demon (destructive force).

To create is to allow yourself to be a channel for the divine’s infinite creative wisdom. To suppress your creative potential to create is to invite its shadow. The choice is yours: Will you let your creativity be your salvation, or will you suppress it until it becomes your undoing?”

“I’ve seen a shift happening in the truther movement since 2020 with the plandemic. And it’s very understandable because for the first time we saw, almost on a mass level, how much we’re being lied to.

But with that “awakening” in the truth movement came an explosion of claims like, “Everything is fake, everything’s a psy-op, this person is a shill,” and extreme psychological splitting and black-and-white thinking.

And now we see truthers are projecting all kinds of stuff onto Erica Kirk. For example, how she’s supposed to grieve, why it’s odd, and this and that.

What I’ve also noticed over the past five years, with the rise of social media, is that so many people have suddenly become forensic experts just by watching a 10-second clip of something on social media and analyzing it.

Everybody is an “expert” now, providing their analysis and not realizing how their analysis may be overlaid with their own projections or assumptions and not actually be the truth. What I see is almost a parody version of a truth seeker emerging.

We’ve become so unconsciously traumatized with everything that has happened, that the psyche automatically shuts certain perspectives out and distorts our thinking to protect us from facing the immensity and the horror.”

New Substack Article. Read here: https://bernhardguenther.substack.com/p/charlie-kirk-cointelpro-and-the-hyperdimensional

“The people-pleaser program can be a tough one to break (it certainly was for me). It often stems from childhood wounds, being shamed for “not listening,” having love and attention withdrawn when we didn’t behave, or being left to “cry it out,” which was a common parenting approach when I was growing up.

As a result, the child learns that certain emotions and needs are “bad.” This internalizes into the belief: “I’m a bad boy/girl,” or “I’m not good enough.” To cope, the child begins to repress their needs and “unacceptable” emotions. They learn that love and affection are only given when they please others.

This dynamic is often compounded when one or both parents are narcissistic, projecting their unmet needs onto the child because they haven’t healed their own inner wounds. Over time, the child creates a false persona, a mask, to gain approval, while the authentic self gets locked away in the unconscious, like a prisoner in a castle.

This pattern can persist well into adulthood, touching every area of life. It prevents us from fully living our own lives and blocks our true potential.

You can see it in co-dependent relationships, or even in the development of narcissistic traits driven by a deep wound and the need to receive love, attention, and validation from the outside. This often feeds the false self, which gets mistaken for the true self.

It also plays out by repeatedly attracting the “wrong” partners, often narcissists, recreating childhood dynamics through repetition compulsion. It manifests in not knowing what one needs or wants, being cut off from one's deeper purpose and having no inner direction or guidance in life.”

“Pluto in Aquarius relates to the theme of mass trauma. There are dark and light sides of Pluto in Aquarius. When I saw [the shooting of Charlie Kirk], I was like, “Well, there you go, there’s a Pluto in Aquarius mass trauma.”

Over the next 20 years, with Pluto in Aquarius, it could intensify this disembodiment, psychological fragmentation, and collective psychosis. Pluto in Aquarius historically correlates with the collapse of old regimes, political revolutions, cultural revolutions, technological revolutions, and the emergence of radical new ideas.

Especially when it comes to freedom, equality, collective ideals, transformation, and technology that is going to reshape our daily lives. We see this with the whole AI revolution and also with battles of power within groups and individuals.

The last time Pluto was in Aquarius was the Revolutionary War in America, and war is a trauma. Pluto entered Aquarius in 1777 at the war’s midpoint, and many people endured displacement, disease, destruction, and famine with families and communities torn apart because of different loyalties to the British or the revolutionaries.

At the same time in France, they had the French Revolution, probably the most dramatic trauma under Pluto in Aquarius, with public executions, mass hysteria, famine, and the Reign of Terror, which created a collective wound and mass trauma. The old order was literally decapitated, which left society in a state of shock, psychically.

So we have this overall archetype or pattern of Pluto in Aquarius, with mass trauma fueled by a collapse of structures, which leads to a sense of traumatic uncertainty, fear, and mass violence, that we’ve seen in the past with public executions, uprising, and bloodshed.

There can be an ongoing sense of alienation, where individuals feel very powerless inside new, dehumanizing collective systems. And there also tends to be revolutions and uprisings born out of this trauma, with the opportunity for collective healing or collective trauma that can span across generations.

What is critical right now is that we have to find a way to get back into our bodies, to heal ourselves in mind, body, and spirit, and to recognize signs of dissociation and PTSD, to find safe people that we can talk to and process with, find ways that we can connect to our body and bring ourselves back to center again, because traumatized people are easier to control.”

THE ILLUSION OF AWAKENING: WHY EXPOSING CONSPIRACIES ISN’T ENOUGH

People have been trying to expose conspiracies for decades (myself included), and even more so over the past 5 years.

However, have you noticed that nothing truly changes in the long run?

No one is ever really revealed or arrested, and the conspiracies, evil, psy-ops, and wrongdoing continue, even as the ego believes it has achieved something by chasing the dangling carrot of “conspiracy revelation.”

The 9/11 conspiracy is still entrenched, and no major public revelation, let alone arrests, has ever taken place.

There will always be more to hook you in and “figure out.”

Why? Because there is no shift in consciousness and no inner transformation to positively impact the world.

It all remains a mental and external exercise and often creates more paranoia and mental loops that may satisfy the conspiracy egoic intellect, which believes it is “solving a puzzle” (while receiving some dopamine hits from it) in the search for the boogeyman.

“Awakening” does not happen by trying to resolve or expose endless conspiracy theories.

I am not implying that we should simply look away and ignore it all.

However, without inner alignment, sincere psycho-spiritual work, and a fundamental shift in consciousness, people can fall into the illusion of being awake while actually lost in a mental rabbit hole.

They become subjected to psychic, archetypal, Wetiko, and occult forces, along with manifestations of the collective and their own personal shadow, which they remain unaware of.

This is a crisis of consciousness and a war on consciousness. It is a spiritual war that works through us.

Hence, the solution must be spiritual in nature if it is to effect a change in consciousness.

We are functioning at a very low level of consciousness, deeply disconnected from our spiritual nature and from the Divine, lost in the depths of the Kali Yuga.

The distraction and illusion of external technological advancement convince us that we are more “evolved,” but in truth, we are like children in kindergarten pretending to be adults.

We still have a long way to go during what the esoteric traditions call the Time of Transition, if we want it to be a successful one.

I’m not trying to sound pessimistic, but many people are traumatized without realizing it, convinced they are “awake” while actually trapped in unconscious defense mechanisms that keep them disembodied and imprisoned in the mental labyrinth of the “second” matrix.

As a result, we will see more psychosis and collective insanity in the years ahead.

This will be intensified by occult hostile forces and entities feeding the already fragmented mind with thought injections, hardening false beliefs, nonsense conspiracies, and feeding off the grandiosity, anxiety, projections, frenzy, and delusion.

It brings spiritual warfare to a whole new level.

Soul embodiment and the ability to discern within yourself what is a shadow part, a wounded sub-personality, an inner child part, a defense mechanism, a shadow projection, an entity interference, a thought injection, an egregore, or your true Self in alignment with the Divine have never been more important.

Without that inner discernment, you risk losing yourself over the next twenty years, as Pluto in Aquarius will only intensify mental instability in those who are already ungrounded.

In short: Know Thyself.

Without it, your outer “discernment” will always be limited and compromised. ...

- from my latest article, "Charlie Kirk, COINTELPRO, and the Hyperdimensional War on Consciousness"

READ THE FULL ARTICLE HERE: https://veilofreality.com/2025/10/03/charlie-kirk-cointelpro-and-the-hyperdimensional-war-on-consciousness/

“Demonic entities are attracted to the “spiritual vacuum” we currently live in, caused by the dominant materialistic worldview which denies the spiritual realities. It is reinforced by passive living and over-identification with the physical body.

In today's materialistic world, most people seek comfort and convenience without spiritual growth, leading to a loss of deeper connection to their true selves. This lifestyle keeps people disconnected from their souls, creating a “spiritual vacuum” that serves as an entry point for hostile spirits.

Excessive media consumption, disembodiment, head-centric living, and dissociation weaken the soul connection, making individuals susceptible to external occult influences without their awareness.

As people withdraw from Divine aspiration and inspiration, their physical bodies become exposed to control by non-human occult hostile forces.

Rudolf Steiner warned that future generations would have weakened or absent souls because of this “spiritual vacuum”, making their bodies vulnerable to occupation by demonic entities.

He also emphasized the importance of learning how to deal with evil, which will inevitably lead to encountering one’s own inner shadow and evil within. It is the cure to eventually transmute and dissolve all evil.”

“Looking at the definition of integrity, which comes from the Latin word for wholeness, is something we strive for. It’s hard to remain undivided all the time. We can have moments where we feel a sense of union and meaning with everything, but we are still dealing with basic traps from the matrix and temptations that surround us all the time.

The point of the spiritual experience and journey is to be constantly tested, over and over, until it is airtight and you have fully mastered that experience, which is what builds your spiritual strength.

As my own soul and being developed, it was harder for me not to be in integrity because I couldn’t lie to myself. I’m an emotionally sensitive person, and I could see if I was coming from my own wounding, and I could see the kind of energy it was attracting when I was spreading my own self-deception to the world.

I’m sure there will be things that come along, and I will realize where I am out of integrity, because it’s a constant honing process where you use these external lessons and tests to become more whole, and also to develop a sense of what is important and valuable to you.”

“Some of the core beliefs we have cannot be explained by our own personal upbringing or through our childhood wounding. In some cases, we have taken on ancestral core beliefs from our parents, our grandparents, and other ancestors.

I can also see from a metaphysical perspective that these beliefs continue down through a family line. These beliefs can even jump a generation through the morphogenetic field and epigenetics.

And this is why it’s so powerful that what we work on ourselves, because we can take on that trauma from a past generation of ancestors that we have, that is not our “own”, but it is embedded in our body and our DNA.

If we are aware and work on these ancestral traumas and core beliefs, we can heal generational trauma in our family line, [healing ourselves, and the generations that come before and after us].”

“You need time alone to clear the psychic debris in your mind and the thoughts and ideas you pick up from others. You need silence and boredom to tap into your creativity.

Most people are terrified of being alone with their thoughts, never mind plumbing into the depths of their psyche and all the memories and images that reside there, so they fill their lives with noise, information, social media, YouTube, and podcasts, constantly keeping themselves busy. They are often running away from themselves and their feelings.

Yet it is only through quiet moments of self-reflection, where you are willing to explore your deepest fears and confront yourself, that you also discover your deepest gifts. It is in this silence that you can begin to hear the voice of your soul again.

You need silence and solitude to remember who you are. When you take time to change your inner being, your whole life changes afterwards.”

There is no political solution.
There is no ideological solution—whether left, right, center, or anarchist.
There is no social justice solution.
There is no “law and order” solution of simply arresting or killing off the “bad guys.”
There is no social media solution: outrage posts and prayer memes won’t cut it.
There is no “expose all the conspiracies” solution.
There is no bypass solution: ignoring it all to focus only on “positive vibes.”
There is no “Love and Light” New Age solution.
There is no religious solution.
There is no external revolution solution.
There is no savior solution.
Bitcoin won’t fix it either, nor will technology, AI, or transhumanism.

None of it will work long-term.
This is a crisis of consciousness and a war on consciousness.

The solution must be psycho-spiritual in nature to change consciousness.

It is a spiritual war that works through us.

Once you realize this, not just intellectually, philosophically, or theoretically, but through direct experience, something shifts deeply within you.

You cross a threshold that points to the real exit from the matrix and the positive transformation of the world.

You begin to see how all kinds of forces, beings, entities, thought-forms, elementals, and egregores move through you, shaping your thoughts, actions, and desires, which you often mistake as your own, and the whole game changes.

Then the real work can begin: to differentiate within yourself what is truly yours and what is not, and to consciously choose what to align with.

As part of spiritual warfare, you must learn to discern:

What to integrate and heal
What to accept and align with
What to reject, clear, or resist

This process and awareness are necessary to purify your vessel, develop your spiritual organs, anchor the Divine Force, and become a seed for the next cycle of the new spiritualized human.

It also helps to mitigate the catalytic changes likely to intensify at the end of this Kali Yuga and throughout the 1200-year transitional phase, which the Greeks called Ekpyrosis, and that we are now entering. This phase leads into the next upward cycle of the Dwapara Yuga.

The Time of Transition is not an overnight event, nor will it be over in your lifetime.

Remember:
It is the soul that matters.
This is about soul evolution and aligning with Dharma and Divine Will to be the seed for the next cycle.

Godspeed.
Bernhard Guenther

“We want to be discerning and to be able to separate truth from lies. But real discernment requires inner alignment, not just surface-level intellectual informational discernment, which is externally oriented. Which means we need to turn inward and differentiate within ourselves.

Gurdjieff talked about this, if you’re not able to discern the truth and lies within yourself, you’re not able to discern truth and lies in the world. And what does he mean by that?

He means we have all these different parts within ourselves. From an esoteric or psychological perspective, these parts can filter and cloud our perception or pollute our perception.

And what are the parts? Well, we can easily have a trauma response, thinking this is our true self coming through, or it could be sub-personalities coming through, an inner child we identify with, which we mistake for the true self.

Our shadow gets triggered, and we project it externally into the world. And many other forces can influence us, which ties into spiritual warfare.

A lot of people acknowledge the idea of spiritual warfare, especially nowadays, but people are still externally oriented, not understanding that the number one task to face in spiritual warfare is understanding what is affecting you and what forces are working through you.

Because our mind is porous, we are constantly influenced by all kinds of thought forms, entities, beings, our inner parts, shadow parts, and sub-personalities. So we need to be able to differentiate within ourselves what is what. This is the task of the great work.

And only until you have a better grasp on that can you then have a better grasp on “outside events,” so your perception and discernment don’t get polluted unconsciously or distorted through your own stuff or things that you’re not even aware of.”

“What people don’t talk about as much is that to heal trauma, you have to grieve - a lot. You need to grieve the life you didn’t have, the love you didn’t get, the years lost, the way you treated yourself and others…

We don’t like to feel this way, so most people avoid it. Suppress it. Dissociate. They will stay frozen in their grief for years. And it will show up as depression, stagnancy, and disconnection from their emotions and relationships.

It’s some of the most arduous emotional work that a person can ever do, but it’s the only way through because without that grieving, without that letting go, the trauma stays with you. It poisons your body, your mind, and your spirit and makes you keep reliving and recreating the past as if it’s still present.

The only way out of this is by going into the emotions that weren’t safe for you to feel when the trauma happened. If you can feel those emotions, it is a sign that you are already healing.

“You can’t heal what you don’t feel” has a profound truth in it. When we feel, we remember our souls again. We regain our connection to life and all that is.

When we grieve, we heal our hearts and our connection to God and every other living being. Underneath all the feelings you don’t want to feel is your aliveness, your vitality, your laughter, your love for life and others, and your soul.”

“In shamanic cultures, they see that a [mental] breakdown is an initiation into the spiritual world. In mainstream psychology, they lack the metaphysical and esoteric understanding of multi-dimensional reality.

And this can leave people vulnerable to real spiritual attacks, because of ignorance or claiming that these spirits or hostile forces are just hallucinations.

For example, a person experiencing chronic suicidal thought injections may be told it’s purely biochemical or trauma-based, which, of course, in some cases may be the truth. But another cause could be that there’s an entity feeding off the despair and pushing the individual towards self-destruction.

So ultimately, without an understanding of occult forces, multi-dimensionality, and the architecture of the soul, even well-intentioned healing modalities simply fall short.

These therapists or practitioners are unaware of the astral realm, of thought forms, soul fragmentation, and all kinds of interdimensional parasites, which they dismiss as part of the person’s psychosis.

On the other side of the coin, there are people who are aware of entities and try to remove them for you, which can come with its own issues. If the person trying to remove entities has no psychological knowledge, they could be removing a shadow part or a traumatized inner child which can result in further fragmentation and psychosis.”

“To individuate is to discover and embody the unique essence that exists at the core of our being, that which is wholly ours. But this uniqueness can’t emerge as long as we’re identified with our roles, the masks we wear, or certain inherited beliefs and expectations that we’ve picked up that do not belong to our true nature.

This is why it requires first a process of purification, purifying ourselves of our wounds, of the persona, of the parts of ourselves that we picked up from family and culture. And then differentiation, which is peeling away all that is not authentically us, so that what is innate and essential to our soul can unfold.

Jung described individuation as the unfolding of two interrelated movements, what alchemy called Separatio and Coniunctio. Separatio is when we begin to separate mixed elements.

In this first phase, we begin to examine the subpersonalities and psychic energies that make up our inner world. We might have a wounded child, an inner critic, a people pleaser, and through self-awareness and self-observation, we begin to disidentify from these parts, seeing them as aspects of the psyche, rather than the whole of who we are.

Over time, we tend to blend with these inner voices, parts, and subpersonalities, and we start to think they are who we are. We may have, what they call in Internal Family Systems, very strong manager parts that tell us what we should do in the world, and what we need to do to be productive.

We can blend with these subpersonalities to the point where we can completely forget the true self. The point is not to reject these parts, but to differentiate from them, which means learning to hold them consciously, rather than being unconsciously possessed by them.

In Jungian language, this is when the ego becomes a stable and observing center, capable of relating to these parts within the unconscious rather than being identified with them.”

“Many people want healthy and deeply loving relationships as it is a fundamental necessity for being human; we are inherently connected with one another and need outlets and the freedom to express that intimately and platonically.

But from what I have seen, most people do not have the will to evolve themselves to a state of being where they can provide the proper container in order for these loving relationships to happen.

Are you ready to take full responsibility for your life and all the patterns that happen in it? Are you ready to stop justifying why you have a certain habit that seems to have affected all of your relationships?

Are you willing to sort out your destructive thoughts and emotions, questioning them tirelessly, to find out what is really true and what is your perception being clouded by past relationship trauma and experiences?

Are you willing to face your shadow so you don't project it on everyone around you? Are you able to look yourself in the mirror and say: I am worthy, and feel it in every cell of your being so that you will not retreat, shy away, or have your attachment issues get triggered when someone loves you?”
