What does Ascension really mean? I don't think one answer can fully justify this topic. In order for Earth to Ascend WE, as a whole species have to Ascend. There are many advanced beings guiding us toward this possible future. There are also advanced beings out there who do not wish for Earth to Ascend, and become part of the galactic family. I think it is ultimately up to us, as far as how far we wish to progress, as species. The dark entities have been corrupting us by offering positions of power over others, and every type of instant gratification imaginable. If Earth is to rise up vibrationally, and join the interstellar community, we ALL must grow up, and do the right thing all the time, no matter what.

The benevolent higher beings, I think can only guide us there, and show us the way. Such is the nature of total free will. If we choose, we could end hunger, poverty war and most other sufferings that plague us now. Or If we choose, those that are in control, refuse to loosen their grip on the established 3D control grid, they could start the next war that annihilates the rest of us, along with Mother Earth and all her creatures that live on her. I wonder what will happen? The universe is patiently waiting for us to make the right decisions.
