Channeling Different Michael Fragments
From New Age Village
By Shepherd Hoodwin
One of the reasons for the different styles and information coming through various Michael channels is that different Michael fragments (or essences) among the one thousand fifty warriors and kings are being channeled. Each fragment may identify itself as “we,” like a spokesperson representing a company, but the entire entity doesn’t have one voice.
We often think of oneness as being like drops of water blending in an ocean, losing all sense of individual identity. What actually happens as we ascend to higher planes that we work together in our larger groupings much more cohesively. Individuality becomes less important, but it is not lost. Paradoxically, the more unified we become, the more our uniqueness is developed. This is illustrated by the way an organism evolves: each part becomes more specialized, yet the whole works together more effectively.
Michael is a name for a group of souls who are working together for specific purposes, one of which is called the Michael teachings. Each individual soul has its own slant on them. In Michael’s People, when asked about “a day in the life of Michael,” Michael mentioned the various Michael fragments conferring with one another. If they were in total oneness, that obviously would not be necessary. Furthermore, in Messages from Michael, they said, “We are integrated fragments of a larger entity,” rather than saying that they are the whole entity.
Early on, Michael told me that I worked with a pool of around a dozen Michael fragments, mostly kings in cadence positions two, five, and six, which resonate with the roles of artisan, sage, and priest, respectively. It makes sense that I would work with Michael fragments in these positions, since I am a creatively oriented sage with an inspirational life task. Later, they said that that pool had grown to over sixty, including those who speak, those who research, and those who do energy work. Over the years, I have opened “wider” to be able to handle more energy. When I am channeling for a large, receptive group, or for an individual who is especially open to energy and capable of receiving a large amount of it, that might call for a sizable number of Michael fragments to come forth. Also, the specific expertise of particular fragments can affect which ones are “on duty” to handle the unique needs of an individual or group. In addition, fragments who have past-life or other connections with those for whom I am channeling might be drawn in. In a gestalt of group consensus and individual “volunteering,” Michael tunes in to the situation when I am going to channel and senses which of its fragments are most appropriate.
However, I am not usually aware of any difference among the fragments I channel (or of how many are coming through), except an occasionally strong warrior presence. I seem more likely to channel warrior fragments for warrior clients. I imagine that a warrior channel is more likely to channel warrior fragments of Michael, and that a king is more likely to channel king fragments. Perhaps sages and priests, being cardinal or “exalted“ roles, are also more likely to channel king fragments, since kings are cardinal as well. Although there are no rules about this, it is true that “birds of a feather flock together.” Another example of this principle is that a channel who is higher in male energy is more likely to channel the male energy aspect of Michael, because that is what the channel is familiar with.
When I am channeling a large number of fragments at once, only one (or two) is the “mouthpiece,” choosing words. This fragment(s) is drawn from a pool of about five or six “regulars” and four or five “part-timers” who work with me (out of about a hundred members of the 1050 in the Michael entity who routinely speak through all their various channels). A couple others might “research.” The rest work with energy. I draw from a pool of about fifty fragments for the energy work, with as many as ten coming through at once. However, since there is a high level of unity among the various fragments, such divisions are not cut-and-dried; the various Michael fragments form an organic whole.
A few years ago, I channeled that the Yarbro group was also working mostly with kings especially in positions one and two. The channels represented in the various non-Yarbro books each had their own agreements with Michael and drew from all cadence positions, but at the time I channeled the information, at least, there was a predominance of warriors in positions one and seven. These things might have changed or may change in the future.
