I can deeply understand your feelings of loneliness.
I know the kind of loneliness you are referring to.
I hope the Cassiopaea Forum is helping you not to be so lonely.
Maybe the family you feel close to you is closer than you think, and networking.
The fact that my comments in this thread promote the idea of not exposing yourself too much or not giving yourself completely to “mystical experiences”, at least not doing so in the ways that are so highly promoted and so enthusiastic to the general public, may seem that I have no idea what those things are, and that I am only speaking from fear of the unknown, but in reality that is not so.
Moreover, the fact that many here have certain psychic abilities, myself included, and yet we see networking as the best path, is based on experience, on facts, and not on assumptions.
“Knowledge protects, ignorance endangers.”
I second your words. I found this part relevant to this discussion:
"Another thing that occurs to me as I examine the relationships is that from any of the lateral axes, by accessing nature/knowledge one is also aligning with the vertical axis of Being which could be defined as the axis of gravity within each of us. Perhaps by aligning with this axis, one could theoretically open a doorway into this axis. Once one was in this axis, one could then open a doorway into any of the other positions of either the lateral or vertical axes. Of course, talking about it and doing it are two different things! Apparently this is one of the aspects of the great Work of alchemy. And in studying alchemy we find some warnings that would do us well to heed.
The alchemists wrote that the study and contemplation of the metaphorical philosopher’s stone along with the chemical work was a necessary component to elevate the mind and prepare the soul for transmutation".
"By invigorating the Organs the Soul uses for communicating with exterior objects, the Soul must acquire greater powers not only for conception but also for retention, and therefore if we wish to obtain still more knowledge, the organs and secret springs of physical life must be wonderfully strengthened and invigorated. The Soul must acquire new powers for conceiving and retaining. … That this has not been the case with all possessors was their own fault. … Those who study only the material elements can at best discover only half the mystery… alchemy is a mystery in three worlds — the divine, the human and the elemental… alchemy in the hands of the profane becomes perverted…
Man’s quest for gold is often his undoing, for he mistakes the alchemical processes, believing them to be purely material. He does not realize that the Philosopher’s Gold, the Philosopher’s Stone, and the Philosopher’s Medicine exist in each of the four worlds and that the consummation of the experiment cannot be realized until it is successfully carried on in four worlds simultaneously according to one formula.
Furthermore, one of the constituents of the alchemical formula exists only within the nature of man himself, without which his chemicals will not combine, and though he spend his life and fortune in chemical experimentation, he will not produce the desired end [which is] the subtle element which comes out of the nature of the illuminated and regenerated alchemist. He must have the magnetic power to attract and coagulate invisible astral elements". (Eugenius Philalethes, quoted in Hall, 1988; emphasis added)
"The alchemical literature includes stories of alchemists who blew themselves up, who suffered horrible diseases, who came under the power of demonic influences because their technical abilities surpassed their spiritual development, or who shot to stardom like a meteor, and then crashed and burned in ignominy.
But, we are gathering more clues here. We have a remark that “alchemy is a mystery in
three worlds”, and that the work takes place in
four worlds simultaneously. The three worlds are defined as “divine, human and elemental”. The Cassiopaeans have also talked about these three worlds:

A: Each soul has its own patterning, which is held in place by the three bodies of existence “thought center, spirit center and physical center”. There are specific methodologies for adjusting these, and traveling into or out of other planes of existence. When one does not properly utilize these, one tears the fabric of their trilateral continuum when they seek to travel. This can be very problematic, and may lead to the soul being unable to reconnect with the body, thus causing the physical center to perish!!!
They have also spoken of the “four worlds”.
October 10, 1998
A: And remember, your consciousness operates on four levels, not just one! [They are] Physical body, genetic body, spirit-etheric body, and consciousness. [These are] the four composites of the human manifestation in 3rd and 4th densities.
"Now, as I pondered these things, it occurred to me that this modified Tree of Life could be used to represent each individual human being since, as the Cassiopaeans have pointed out, all of creation exists within each and every one of us. When we align with the central axis, we are aligned with seventh density, which is the origin of all other engendered beings, and we thereby have access to all of Creation in very literal terms.
However, since man is a mirror image of God, we now need to reverse the image as the Cabalists constructed it with, again, my little modifications".
The Tree of Life “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God Himself. He was present originally with God. All things were made and came into existence through Hi…

Below, I share a video (in Spanish) where the theme of how to approach spiritual work is developed. You can activate the subtitles. If I can, I will transcribe it. At the end, I copy the commentary I made after watching the video in question. The creators of this material are members of the community and the forum.
"As with all work, starting from the “bottom”, so to speak, is the best approach. Seeking spiritual experience without first doing a “cleansing of the machine” is taking a shortcut and, at worst, counterproductive. I remember reading something about artificially opening the higher centers by taking substances. The person is not prepared to understand what is unfolding in front of his consciousness and may even be exposed to unimaginable dangers. Also, it is like a way of rejecting life here on earth, as if it were less spiritual. Plants grow from their roots, buildings from their foundations, etc. Our earthly experience is highly spiritual. Thank you again for sharing the knowledge and I look forward to the next installment".
