How does you anglelic/fallen/dark nature affect you on a daily basis? Is it more of a burden than a blessing? Does it play a large roll in your daily routine or very little?
I have to say my spiritual life and my "real life" are very seperate things unless I spend time with a small group of very trusted friends. We chat about it, exchange ideas, and bake cookies (no joke, I make mean oatmeal rasin cookies). But my kinness only serves to enhance the way I view the world, really. How about you?

spiritual life and physical life are one entity for me. I am Terro, I just happen to be in a Human body right now. I'm on vacation... mid-life crisis... aimed for Aruba... wound up in Jersey

Doesn't really effect my life at all... Though my mother has gotten rather...wierd...since finding out what I am... She tried to bind me to her and failed miserably...
My boyfriend was extremely pissed at first, but he didn't understand at that time what I meant. Then we started talking and found out some rather interesting things...

Haahaa Terro, don't we all end up in Jersey. (by the way, do you not capitalize your name on purpose? Like does it hole a specific meaning with your name?) To be honest sometimes I need to take a break from astral things and just focus on what's going on in the physical, rarely vice versa. I feel as if I was put here to enjoy and endure the human experience, and how can I do that if I'm being my Seraphy self all the time? I think its a tad counter productive xD.

To me there is only me, there is only who I am, I react as I would, I act as I would.
I can barely astral project so it may not hold a major meaning. I find that thinking as the Angel is quite productive, if I could awaken even more of myself it might be furthermore very productive.
As far as the capitalization of "Terro," I most often capitalize it, for some reason it didn't in my name here on this forum, and I'm far too lazy to go about changing it. I am given to understand that the meaning of this name has to do write something about dominion over mountains. I've had many names over the years.

I have a trusted friend who shares similar conflicts with me, though not of the same spiritual "quality," that is, he is not an incarnated angel. Friendly conversations are good for me; it's nice to have a second or third opinion on things. My "nature" weighs on my mind all of the time, and ignoring it drives me to madness (sometimes, quite literally). I take more stock in the spiritual than the physical, naturally. This life, is just a passing time, and whatever happens here, it will be gone all too soon.

Terro, it takes 2 seconds to change it . For me thinking as the angel is only to be used at certain times. The most frequent instances of "thinking angel" come when I'm helping others, but I'm not allowed to have that wisdom for myself (it seems...but do I need it) but that's where other angelic types come in, so I'm covered. I'm not sure what exactly "Helena Prince" means as a descriptor for me, all I know is in my pen name which combines my name in this life and my astral name prince, the prince part overwhelms it, or so I'm told. The fact that I think my name has changed over time also may signify something. Ohhh this would make a great new topic *makes*

It affects my daily life in subtle ways that are actually hard to separate, due to everything seeming innate. I agree with terro in the idea that the spiritual and physical life are integrated. Moreover, I believe that the separation between mundane and etheric is one of perspective, not state. Well that sounds stuffy lol...on to answering the question (i'm roundabout)
It's in how I view people and objects. I look at people as wholistically as I am able, superficial interactions don't interest me...so I like to believe i'm rather perceptive of others, as I spend a good deal of time receiving and offering repose. I believe I may have mentioned that I practice reiki and other forms of spiritual healing. I notice that people tend to be very honest and open with me (the 'I feel I can talk to you' feeling lol). It's also as simple as when I see a tree I don't just see a tree....it's a spire of life jutting from the earth and blooming into a serene illustration and transubstantiation of the energies about us....it's beautiful lol. When I look upwards, though I acknowledge the spirit as being around us as opposed to above...it still gives me an inner peace and sense of being that others may ignore. When I view people my first consideration is what I can do for them or what I may have to offer them...whereas it seems many take the converse. So there's really not much to separate my 'everyday' with any other 'type' of spiritualist...my kin-ness (if you will), allows me to be in a more constant contact with that which is intrinsically about everyone.
(if you're not used to my posts, i apologize for being long winded lol)

(if you're not used to my posts, i apologize for being long winded lol) No, dude, really its a good thing . I always feel guilty when my posts are less than three sentences. Three LONG sentences. But back to what you were saying, it does make sense. Maybe I'm just dense to how it affects me. Actually come to think of it, I'm really lucky. Like when it counts, not like winning the lottery. Like getting out of a car accident, that was my fault completely with only a small fine of 45.00$ and no points. I'm actually friends with the guy I rear ended too. He works at my grocery story and we always say hello and joke about it. That kinda thing happens all the time.

It affects things like religion, obviously, but otherwise I've got the human act down to a pretty nifty art, and I enjoy being as abnormally normal as possible.
As for religion... well, let's just say that I can't really take it seriously, knowing what I know. I love all the trappings of it, but when you get down to it I don't really go in for any of it.

Does it play a large roll in your daily routine or very little? it actually doesnt. my daily routine is darker than my spiritual self. who i am is just me. i see nor feel a burden about it. being kin doesent really play part in my life, unless i am summoned or something. but that doesnt happen often

It doesn't really effect my life much at all.
When I first found out and got over the mental hurdle that came with the word "angel" at first, then I just sort of... shrugged. It made sense, and helped explain away some of the why's that had come up in my life, such as "why do people always say they feel so comfortable/safe/open around me" etc. etc. etc.
Since then, I've talked about it openly to anyone who'll listen. I'm not really worried about what others think about it, or of me, for what I believe.
I have to agree with Kaoine, more or less; I can't take it seriously. Not because I have any "special" knowledge of it or anything; I just don't feel seriously about it. I just can't do more than shake my head and smile a little.

I'm just too damn busy with my kids to think about it much during the day. The rest of the time its an internal argument, "is it real or am i totally cuckoo".

It affects me that I know who I am now and I have learned to come to terms with me. I like who I am now.
And to the outside world I do show a different side to me a side that they want to see. where as sprirtually and on the inside and to my close friends who know who I really am. I can be my true self.
