The Weavers of Shared Dreams

By Anelly Aya Anelly Aya

The first light of morning creeps through the slits in the curtains, painting pale, uncertain lines across the floor. I sit with my cup, which still warms my palms, watching the steam curl and vanish into the cool air of the room—just like the images from my dream that still weigh heavy on my eyelids, refusing to dissolve fully into wakefulness. There is something strange about this state between two worlds, a sense of the soul's permeability that is strongest in the early hours. I have always known that the night is not merely a time for rest, but a stage for deep, invisible work. But today I feel it with particular clarity: a dream is not just a personal archive; it is not merely a drawer for my own tidy or cluttered memories. It is a wide-open space in which I cease to be only "I" and become part of a vast, breathing network. As I watch the world outside slowly awaken, I realize how egocentric it is to believe that everything happening in our dreams refers solely to ou...

Birth as a Prototype of Anxiety - Karma, Spiritual Paths, and Psychoanalytic Theories

By Anelly Aya Anelly Aya

 

The birth of every individual is one of the deepest and most important moments in human life. It is an act that not only physically creates a new being, but also carries significant psychological and spiritual consequences. Birth is like the beginning of a journey filled with inner conflicts and opportunities for growth, and the way it unfolds can have a profound impact on a person’s life. According to various theories—from psychoanalysis to spiritual teachings such as Christianity and karmic doctrines—birth can be viewed as a prototype of later anxieties and fears in life.

Birth and Perinatal Matrices

The concept of perinatal matrices, introduced by psychoanalysis, sees birth as a process that not only initiates a person's life but also shapes their mental world and capacity to adapt to the world. Depending on how the birth occurs—whether it is easy or difficult, traumatic or not—the individual begins life with certain psycho-emotional imprints that will accompany them throughout their life.

Perinatal matrices also include the different phases and stages of birth—from intrauterine development to the actual birth. Each stage can leave deep marks on the individual's psyche and create adaptation patterns that determine how they will respond to future traumas and challenges. These patterns serve as initial prototypes of later psychological reactions and defense mechanisms that manifest as anxiety, fears, depression, and inner conflicts.

Personal and Collective Karma: How Birth Influences the Spiritual Path

In both psychoanalysis and spiritual teachings such as karma, birth is viewed as part of a larger process of spiritual growth and the pursuit of inner liberation. Karma is a concept that explains how the soul carries lessons from past lives and how those lessons influence its current incarnation. According to this philosophy, birth is not merely a physical beginning, but a spiritual moment in which the soul enters a new embodiment, carrying with it specific karmic burdens.

There are two main ways to examine the impact of karma on the process of birth:

  • Personal Karma: The soul may carry burdens from previous lives, such as fears and unresolved conflicts. These karmic imprints can affect how a person experiences the process of birth. For example, if the soul carries a sense of separation or guilt (often linked to the original feeling of separation from God), these feelings will manifest as anxiety and fears throughout life. The individual's life will resemble a homeopathic process, in which they encounter situations and trials that provide opportunities to purify this karma and heal their inner conflicts.

  • Collective and Ancestral Karma: In other cases, the soul may be sent with a specific spiritual task connected to collective or family karma. Birth in this context involves going through ancestral and familial conflicts and traumas that need to be resolved. These inherited burdens are passed on to the new generation, manifesting in the child’s life and shaping their reactions and coping mechanisms.

Christian Teaching and Overcoming Trauma

It is interesting to connect these ideas with Christian teachings, which view birth as an act of divine beginning and a new opportunity for the soul. In Christianity, human birth is a metaphor for a new beginning and the possibility of salvation and purification. From a Christian perspective, every human being carries within themselves not only the inherited marks of the Fall, but also the potential for inner healing through faith and repentance. Just as birth can carry karmic burdens, the Christian understanding of salvation implies a process of purification and release from these burdens.

Christian faith sees the innate alienation of man from God as the root of many of our inner conflicts and anxieties. Birth becomes a new opportunity to be freed from this fear and to overcome inner blockages through repentance and spiritual growth.

How Does Birth Shape a Person’s Life?

Ultimately, the process of birth—within the context of perinatal matrices and karma—is the initial moment that sets the direction of a person’s life. Psychoanalysis shows that patterns of adaptation and internal fears begin forming within the first minutes after birth, while karma and spiritual teachings give profound meaning to this process as part of a larger universal plan for growth and healing.

An individual’s life path is shaped by how they deal with these inner conflicts and fears. Whether these difficulties are tied to personal karma or ancestral traumas, each challenge offers an opportunity for spiritual growth and the overcoming of the soul’s inherited wounds. Thus, birth can be seen not only as the beginning of physical life, but as the foundation for the soul’s spiritual journey in this world.

Conclusion

Birth is much more than a physical act. It is a spiritual process that combines deep psychoanalytic and spiritual beliefs, such as karma and the Christian concept of salvation. Each birth carries the potential for overcoming inner conflicts and releasing anxiety as part of a greater process of healing and spiritual growth. Understanding birth as a prototype of anxiety opens new perspectives on how we can heal our inner wounds and move forward on the path of spiritual renewal.

The Gardener’s Lesson - The Power of Slow, Steady Dedication and Patience

By Anelly Aya Anelly Aya
 In life, we often seek quick results, immediate successes, and visible changes. But true magic, real achievement comes from another quality — patience and the persistence of the gardener. The gardener is a teacher who shows us the lesson of slow and systematic dedication — of committing to a cause with daily work, love, and care. He knows that not every seed sown will sprout immediately, that growth is a process requiring time and attention. This lesson is about that perseverance which remains invisible at first but forms the foundation of every true accomplishment. It is a lesson about overcoming the "lack of immediate effect" — when there is no result, but despite that, a person continues doing what they feel is their calling, their gift. Because a true calling is not measured by the speed of success but by the depth of dedication. The world around us often emits confusion, fear, uncertainty that can distract us from our path. But the gardener is not influenced by the m...

Herbs for Baby - Natural Care and Gentle Support

By Anelly Aya Anelly Aya
When it comes to protecting and strengthening your baby’s health, many parents are turning to homeopathy — a gentle, natural form of medicine that supports the body’s ability to heal itself. Our book “Homeopathy for Babies: A Practical Guide for Parents and Professionals” explores how this approach can help infants navigate health issues safely and effectively. Why Homeopathy? Homeopathy is based on the principle of “like cures like”— a tiny amount of a natural substance, which in large amounts would cause symptoms, can help ease those same symptoms when properly prepared. Homeopathic medicines are highly dilute, making them non-toxic and free from side effects, which makes them a popular choice for delicate infants. What Conditions Could Benefit? The book covers a range of health issues that frequently affect infants and young children. Some of these include: Colic and Digestive Discomfort: Homeopathy can ease symptoms of colic, constipation, and reflux by addressing the root ...

Are You Ready?

By Anelly Aya Anelly Aya

   Are You Ready? To receive abundance, love, and your own greatness? I sit in the stillness of the morning. I feel something rising from within—like a tide I cannot stop. A thought, a feeling, a realization. I hear it again and again: “Are you ready?” This question doesn’t come from the outside. It is born from the depths of the soul—that quiet yet powerful part of us that knows far more than the mind. Am I ready for the abundance that is already approaching? Am I ready for True Love , the one I’ve long prayed for and yearned for? Am I ready to receive that which I’ve asked for... even when it comes in a way I never expected? Receiving is also a choice Many people believe the spiritual path is only about giving up—desires, attachments, the material world. But there is another phase—perhaps even harder: Being ready to receive. To allow abundance into your life, without sabotaging it. To accept love, without hiding behind the fear of getting hurt. To live joyfully...
