God Posse Parenting

Since my experiences with the incarnating soul Laura, I have become convinced that pregnant women can talk to the Higher Selves of their developing babies and through this process learn about the new soul entering their lives. I believe that creating an awakened bond between the Higher Selves of parents and their children will play a vital role in the evolving consciousness of the planet. Having accomplished this connection with an incarnating soul, I went about the business of using these techniques to open a direct line in-between myself and my six and three year olds, who are of course, no longer pre-natal

Even though I consider myself to be a spiritual person…I would be lying if I said it is never difficult to confront the developing ego of a three year old and think Higher Self in the same instance. To do this requires a great shift in perspective, which for me really grew with the realization that while I can not always reason with my three year old’s ego…I can certainly learn a lot from her spirit guides, Higher Self and angels. This process helps me to remember (even in the midst of a full out tantrum on the floor) that there is a fully developed soul in there with whom I can communicate…someone who is wise, who understands her path and has all the perfect answers.

I became attracted to a concept that I will refer to as God Posse Parenting (or parenting from directives given to you by your child’s Higher Self, angels and spirit guides). John Edward refers to his group as ‘the boys’, and my friend Christine calls her connections ‘the committee’, but for this article I felt that Slade Roberson’s clever ‘God Posse’ fit well.

In order to experiment with this I had to dig deeper into my own spiritual process. This involved a great deal of healing. I had to recognize any fears, worries or doubts that were lurking…I had to release any hurt, anger or pain spawned by my earliest religious experiences and interpretations of God and allow myself to make direct contact with my Higher Self instead of using go-betweens. As usual…it all began with me.

When I felt that I was ready I entered a meditation in which I sought communication with my three year old’s guides. I called out to her circle of representatives that I am her mother and I want to know how I can best help her soul’s development at this time. After a brief moment a girl stepped forward to meet me and introduced herself as Anne. She excused herself for a brief huddle with the others in the crowd and then emerged with her answer.

She advised me to actively involve my daughter with water activities. Anne said that water will play a significant factor in her life and that she needs to understand it and be comfortable in it. Moreover, she also said that it connects my child with a state of mind in that no other experience has yet been able to achieve. They want her familiar with that place in her mind and how it feels and they felt her best access to it at this age is through water.

Being able to contact my daughter’s guides for advice has given me a lot more peace as a parent, has allowed me to develop a new relationship with my child (she is no longer seen as just a child but as a source of wisdom and someone with a very distinct purpose) and it has also had the advantage of placing my focus on what’s most important…instead of the occasional smearing of staining substances in places inappropriate I rely on this new relationship with her to counterbalance our daily mother/daughter interactions. Her God Posse delivers an interaction that her physical body and current development can not provide but I know that as she grows…our physical relationship will mirror our spiritual one.

Paula,

Thanks for adopting, using, spreading, and sharing my concept of a “god posse.”

For so many years, this was a private, “silly little” phrase that I used by myself (or once in awhile with close friends). It was a pleasant shock to see it move outside me — like I’ve been awarded some addition to a dictionary or something, you know?

Wow, what a compliment!

Hi Slade,

I think one of the coolest things that happens is the allowing of ’small’ but ‘deep’ parts of ourselves to the surface…even more affirming is when these parts hit an unexpected cord with others
