This question is inspired by one of my clients who wrote in and asked, and I love it for so many reasons. The first being that it reminded me how we all use similar vocabulary and can mean very different things. This is a big issue in our world today. So, today, I'm going to explain ascension from the bigger and broader perspective—through my framework.
When we speak about ascension, we are speaking about the raising of our spiritual vibration. You’ve probably had the experience of having a spiritual practice, and you know that when your practice is on point, you feel better. You feel more connected, and are able to rise above the drama. You're practicing what it is that gives you strength from the inside and feeling the connectedness of everything. Your vibration is higher, and then what happens it raises your frequency.

There are clairaudient people who can hear spiritual frequency. They report hearing a high pitch when they're around spiritual relics or people who are of an excessively high vibration.
And as an angelic channel, I can tell you that when the angels speak it's a very high frequency. So those of us who really are in tune with the Angels have a hard time with loud noises and often get overstimulated by sounds that we don't choose. Our ears become very sensitive.
So when we speak of ascension, we're talking about raising our vibration (and in turn, our frequency.)
This needs to happen incrementally. It’s much like climbing Mount Everest. If we don't take breaks to acclimate to the altitude, we feel sick and it becomes dangerous to our health. It's the same way with ascension. We need to take those breaks to allow the integration, to allow the new vibration to settle in so that our physical system can actually catch up to our spiritual system.
This is why we have plateaus in our spiritual development. A lot of people get frustrated by them, but they are just times of integration and adjustment so that we can keep climbing. Through this lens, we can actually be grateful for these times and relax into them.
I have noticed that there seem to be some places in this world that exist specifically to show us where we are in terms of our vibration or frequency. I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt that L.A. is one of these places. Every time I am there, I have such a great experience meeting incredible like-minded, like-hearted people who are working to make this world a better place.
That's my experience.
I know someone who went to L.A. earlier this year and had a completely different experience. He got approached by many people who were seeking to manipulate, who were looking for those seeking to fill a void in some way. His experience was with people in survival mode. He met some very low frequency people where people are just seeking to survive—seeking to fill the needs of the moment in ways that just got them to the next moment. He came home with so many stories of narrow escapes and odd interactions.
Yet, I guarantee you that if we were standing right next to each other on the same street at the same time, we still would still have had experiences that seemed diametrically opposed. We both carry our own vibrations and would be approached by very different people. This doesn't make either experience better or worse. It just means is that we attract people and experiences based on what we are putting out to the world, and we do this through our vibration and frequency. These are the factors that dictate what we will attract—the kind of experiences and the kind of people.
This is such an amusing experiment. I am always about playing with these things. Test them out for yourself, don't just take my word for it. Look at what you are pulling toward you to see where your vibration is. See who is in your life, and you will know exactly where you stand.
Everybody is on the same path, going to the same place. We are each in our own ascension process.
You'll see, as you look out into the world, people who are digging their heels in, refusing to go with the flow, refusing to change with the times, refusing to open to what is possible if things move forward. That's their choice, and it's perfectly fine. But know, that they also are on their own path of ascension and they will get there someday.
We are here to lead the way so that others can see there's really nothing to be afraid of. They can learn by our example, without us even saying a word, what is possible for them and everyone else.
