Greetings, friends! My name is Aloel Cristal, and I am, tentatively speaking, a healer and creator, focusing at present on visual arts with the intention of evolving my artistic potential to its fullest.
I have been born into my family as a 3d generation of medical doctors on my maternal side, and later, after relocating to Canada became a naturopathic doctor, focusing on vibrational healing.
I have been drawing and painting since early childhood, sometimes using doors or walls as drawing surfaces and my fingers as brushes for oil paints :). I have been aware of seeing different faces or other shapes in random patterns everywhere, which as I was told recently, is very characteristic for artists.
When I was 4 years old my family moved from Latvia, where I was born, to Moscow, where I was growing up and basically surviving on a daily basis in a rather harsh societal environment, never feeling like I belonged, on many levels. I tried to adapt unconsciously, like children do, and at times it felt like I was being accepted by other children or later on, the society in general, but eventually it became clear that trying to conform does not work for me. I refused to continue moulding myself into the “standard”, “acceptable” or “normal”.
When great societal shifts began and so much hidden came to the surface and to my awareness, I felt totally clear that I simply cannot continue living this common lie, pretending, playing a required role in this destructive mass theatrical show…
I left the country where I was growing up in the midst of a huge political turmoil with my little daughter and my parents and we settled in Toronto, Canada. There I became a Naturopathic Doctor, having discovered a totally new universe of medical knowledge, completely different from the medicine I knew and practiced, and which made so much more sense! Learning it was like coming home, remembering a long forgotten knowledge.
Around the time I was admitted into the Naturopathic College I became severely ill as the result of all previous stresses, including immigration and all the “fun” associated with it. The timing was absolutely perfect, and I avoided potential disability by learning all I could about healing on many levels and applying this knowledge to my own process. In my naturopathic practice I concentrated on addressing the true causality of dis-ease in my patients, helping them see how they inadvertently created their own problems with health or life in general. As I was working on myself, cleansing, meditating, doing energy work, journalling etc., my clairvoyant and other abilities became more evident, assisting me tremendously in my work with the patients.
Since studying at the Naturopathic College and especially when my awareness began to increase more and more as I began to practice, I remember being preoccupied with two questions: why people get ill; and how to protect myself from other people’s energies, as I acutely sensed their disbalances and always felt drained and unwell after seeing patients. The first theme remained for years to be answered multiple times, each time at a new level of understanding.
The second theme served as a beautiful incentive for inner searching and eventually led me to esoterica and metaphysics, studying as much as I could ancient esoteric religions, theosophical knowledge, modern spiritual teachings, energy medicine, vibrational healing, alternative diagnostic techniques etc. Eventually I left it all behind and realised that all these teachings served simply as remembrance points and in truth all the knowledge exists eternally within me. All I need to do is to create optimal conditions for this knowledge to come to my awareness. Thus I gradually created my own understanding and ways for continuous expansion of my consciousness.
At the same time I continued being creative - painting, drawing, working with fibres and clay making pottery. I seemed to be going through cycles where I would feel like painting and I would create a few works in a short period of time working very fast, as if exhaling something from the depth of my being. Most of these paintings live now in the homes of my friends and family as well as some people who felt connected to them. Then I would concentrate on sewing or felting, or making beautiful pottery. If for some reason I could not be creative for a while I would feel suffocated. Creativity to me is an expression and a manifestation of my connection to the Soul. Without this connection life would be unbearable…
My life has been quite challenging in many aspects, but one main thing remained unscattered - this deep inner knowing of which direction to choose next, grounded in the deepest Trust for support and guidance that come from within. I never truly connected with the way humans live here on this planet, it never made sense to me. I always felt like an outsider, a true foreigner, observing surroundings with detached amusement or, more often, annoyance.
After I began truly awakening after the age of 30 it all gradually became clear. I have realized that I am an eternal light being going through this particular human experience here on this holographic planet in this particular holographic body writing just another story for the Creation in general. I have recollected a lot of my previous experiences and reconnected with some of my Star families. I received my true ("spiritual") name around the age of 45. This is the name I have now, slightly adapted for the human ear. I chose to stay unseen to the Socium in general, quietly going through my own transformational processes and preferring to work one on one with those few humans who are brought into my awareness for assistance, mostly healing, inner growth and expansion of consciousness.
After retiring from my practice I moved to Bulgaria to live in a remote tiny ecovillage. Being surrounded with Nature helps to reconnect within on even deeper levels. Almost every drawing or painting is a meditation practice in a way, - me flowing intuitively in the mystical flow of creativity. I know that this creative impulse comes from the Soul, and I see my main task in not standing in its way but rather assisting it in expressing its potential. In order to do that I need to be in a very balanced, harmonious and happy state when I approach a painting or drawing. Every time I pick up a brush or some other tool I feel like stepping onto a magical path, leading indefinitely deeper and deeper, into a multidimensional realm of my True Being. In that realm there is no separation, no division, no polarity games, no drama, - just wholeness, unity, harmony and peace representative of the new incoming high frequency energies. These are all aspects of the beginning of a new Cosmic cycle, a new era…
