Good to hear your experiences Thomas - there are for sure plenty out there with catalytic configurations.

What I feel to focus on in the thread now, is how you combine BOTH empathic and catalytic qualities. As we've intimated plenty of times, it can be highly limiting to attach to either identity. I would say the quality that brings them both together is the "ray 4 diplomat". It's about respecting and honouring the reality in which a person or situation is. For someone being purely catalytic, the challenge is you know the higher reality, the higher vibration is possible and you can see the distortion in the old, so your consciousness wants to break the old down and move swiftly to the new. But then there's the invitation to realise that ALL realities contain some degree of distortion, they are each a karmic construct. What is it then that you can respect and admire about the reality construct you're given to work with?

To give an example, in this reality I witness how limiting and challenging technology is being, especially now Smart, 5D and AI. But then I'm connecting with people on a computer, across the internet. And one of the things I enjoy most is listening to music on an ipod. Likewise with social media, it often seems light and trite, yet recently I've experienced great connective value from live streaming for example. I'm reminded that even the matrix is founded on 'ancient light'.

So having respect for the reality you're working with helps you bridge into it, no matter how distorted it might be - it serves a purpose. The bridging aspect would be enhanced by ones empathic traits. But also recognising that there are higher harmonies to be attained. So I would say when you can effectively combine both, you become more of a catalytic bridge - bridging into higher dimensions of reality and progressively realising them.
