This is a message of homecoming for the trailblazers who have felt alone their entire lives.  It's time to understand your journey and embrace your new role as a guide for the waves that follow.

For your entire life, have you carried a secret, silent feeling?  A feeling that you are a stranger in a strange land.  You look at the world, at its ambitions, its conflicts, its desires, and a quiet voice inside you whispers, "This is not my home."  You have played the game.  You've built a career, raised a family, followed the rules, but underneath it all, there has been a persistent sense of dissonance, a feeling that you are somehow older than your years, that you remember a place of profound peace, a place where things simply made more sense.  You have felt a cosmic homesickness for a home you cannot name.  If these words resonate in the deepest chambers of your heart, then this message is for you; it is a message of confirmation, a message that says you are not crazy, you are not broken, you are simply one of the first wavers.

In her decades of research into the subconscious mind, Dolores Cannon made one of her most profound discoveries; the existence of three waves of volunteer souls who came to Earth to help with the current planetary shift, and the first wave, she explained, had the most difficult mission of all.  They were the pioneers, the way showers, the ones who had to jump into the densest, darkest part of the timeline to anchor the light first.  Tonight, we will move beyond the general descriptions, we will dive deep into Dolores's transcripts to uncover five forgotten, subtle, and often misunderstood signs that identify a true first-wave soul.  These are not the signs you will find in a typical spiritual checklist, they are the deep, quiet truths that first-wavers have carried in silence their entire lives.  As we go through these five signs, I invite you to not just listen with your mind, but to feel with your soul.  This is not an intellectual exercise, this is a homecoming.

Before we examine the signs, we must understand the mission.  Why was the first-wave journey so uniquely challenging?  According to the subconscious, the first wavers began incarnating in large numbers from the late 1940s through the 1960s.  They were jumping into a post-war world, a reality defined by rigid conformity, deep materialism, and a profound spiritual amnesia.  The frequency of the planet was at its densest.  Their mission was not to build organizations, write books, or lead movements, their mission was simply to survive and exist.  By incarnating with their higher vibrational blueprint and simply living on Earth, they acted as energetic step-down transformers, they slowly, painstakingly, and often painfully began to raise the base frequency of the collective consciousness, making it possible for the second and third waves to incarnate later without being completely crushed by the density.  But what is that force?

What is the fundamental difference in their energetic signature?  The subconscious explained that first wavers are high frequency souls in low frequency environments.  Imagine trying to run a supercomputer on the electrical grid of a 1950s farmhouse, the system is constantly under stress, prone to brownouts, depression and power surges, anxiety.  Their core challenge was vibrational dissonance; their very being was in a state of constant low-level conflict with the collective consciousness around them.  This is why many first wavers have struggled with mysterious chronic health issues, autoimmune disorders, chronic fatigue, environmental sensitivities.  Their physical bodies were struggling to reconcile the immense gap between their soul's native frequency and the dense frequency of 3D Earth.  They were, in essence, living with a permanent case of spiritual jet lag.  They were the spiritual commandos dropped behind enemy lines with no map, no radio, and no memory of the mission.  Their only guide was that persistent quiet feeling that there had to be something more.  Many of them have lived their entire lives without ever knowing the true heroic nature of their sacrifice.  Understanding this energetic reality is the key to unlocking the five signs, which are not just psychological quirks, but direct symptoms of this foundational dissonance.

The five forgotten signs:

Sign number one: Aversion to irrational conflict.  It's not that you are a pushover, you can be incredibly strong when defending a principle you believe in, but you have a deep, almost physical aversion to petty, ego driven conflict.  When you see people arguing over trivial matters, when you witness drama fuelled by jealousy, gossip, or a need to be right, it doesn't just annoy you, it exhausts you; it feels profoundly illogical.  In one session when asked about this trait, the subconscious replied their template is one of logic and unity.  Conflict for the sake of ego is a corrupted file in their programming, they do not compute it, it creates an error state in their energy field.  Think about that, an error state in their energy field.  This explains why you feel physically drained after being around arguments.  Your system is literally struggling to process corrupted data, it's not that you are weak, it's that you are finely tuned, you are a high precision instrument being forced to listen to static and it throws your entire being out of calibration.  This is not a weakness, it is a sign of your soul's high frequency origin.

Sign number two: A solitary nature-based spirituality.  Throughout your life, you have felt a deep spiritual pull, but you have never felt at home in organized religion.  The dogma, the rituals, the hierarchy, it all felt like a distorted echo of a truth you knew more simply and directly.  Your true church has always been nature, you have found more divinity in a quiet forest, by a flowing river, or under a starry night sky than in any man-made temple.  The subconscious explained this by saying, "They come from worlds where the source is not an external entity to be worshipped, but the very life force that animates all things.  They do not need a building to find God; they are used to walking within God every day.”  This is why you feel a sense of homecoming when you are alone in nature, you are reconnecting with a familiar environment, your soul instinctively knows that the trees, the animals, and the stars are all aspects of the same universal intelligence.  Your solitary walks in nature have not been an escape from the world, but a pilgrimage back to the only temple your soul has ever truly known.

Sign number three: The observer syndrome.  Since you were a child, you have often felt like you are an anthropologist studying a strange foreign tribe.  You participate in society, but a part of you is always standing back, observing, trying to understand its bizarre customs.  You watch people chase after fame, wealth, and power, and you feel a sense of detached curiosity rather than desire.  This can lead to a feeling of deep loneliness, but it is a hallmark of the first waver.  Dolores's work revealed the reason; they are observers because on a soul level they are.  They are outsiders who volunteered to come inside, their mission required them to retain a degree of non-attachment to the 3D game, lest they become fully hypnotized by it and forget their purpose.  This perspective gives you a unique wisdom and an ability to see the matrix for what it is.  The feeling of being an outsider was a necessary component of your mission's design, it was a fail-safe to ensure you never completely lost yourself in the illusion.

Sign number four: A resistance to labels and groups.  You are a deeply compassionate person, but you have always resisted being put into a box.  You shy away from political parties, nationalistic pride, and even spiritual labels.  This isn't because you don't have beliefs, it's because your soul operates from a place of unity consciousness.  It instinctively knows that all labels are instruments of separation.  The subconscious put it beautifully: “How can a drop of water that remembers being the ocean be content with being called salty or wet?  It knows its true identity is the entire ocean.”  These souls resist labels because they are an affront to their memory of oneness.  While others find comfort and identity in their groups, you have always found your truest identity in the quiet label-less space of your own being.  This resistance to being defined is not a fear of commitment, it is an allegiance to a higher, more unified reality that you remember in your very core.

Sign number five: A profound existential weariness.  This is the final most misunderstood sign.  Throughout your life, you have experienced waves of a deep, profound weariness.  It is not the normal tiredness from a hard day's work.  It is a soul level fatigue, it is a feeling of being done, a sense that you have seen this movie before, countless times.  This is not depression, although it is often misdiagnosed as such, depression is a sense of hopelessness.  This weariness is different.  Dolores was once told by the subconscious, "The pioneers are the oldest, most experienced souls.  They have done it all.  They have seen empires rise and fall a hundred times.  They volunteered for this mission as their final tour of duty in a dense dualistic reality.  The weariness they feel is the honourable fatigue of an ancient soldier who knows the war is almost over.”  This is the ultimate sign of a first waver.  The exhaustion you feel is the fatigue of a marathon runner in the final mile, it is not a sign that you are broken, it is the ultimate confirmation that your grand long journey is finally nearing its completion.

So, we have identified the signs.  These symptoms of a high frequency soul in a dense world, but they were not random, they were all part of a forgotten passive, yet profoundly important mission.  The subconscious called this mission being a frequency anchor.  Unlike the later waves who came to build and create, the first waver's primary mission was simply to hold a frequency.  Imagine a dark room, the first wavers were the first few candles lit in that vast darkness, they didn't need to do anything, their mere existence, their very light began to change the ambient nature of the room.  Your aversion to conflict; that was you anchoring the frequency of peace.  Your solitary spirituality in nature; that was you anchoring the frequency of planetary consciousness.  Your observer syndrome; that was you anchoring the frequency of objective, non-judgmental awareness.  Your resistance to labels; you were anchoring unity and your profound weariness.  That was the energetic cost of being a living, breathing anchor in a stormy sea.  You were not here to fight the darkness; you were here to outshine it simply by being yourself.  You were a living, walking tuning fork, constantly broadcasting a higher vibration into the collective, even when you felt lost, alone, and purposeless.  Every moment you chose kindness in a world of cruelty, every time you sought beauty in a world of ugliness, you were fulfilling your primary directive.  This is the heroic truth of your life.  You have been on a mission from the very first breath you took.

If you have recognized yourself in these signs, then let this be a moment of profound validation.  Let the weight of a lifetime of feeling wrong or different fall from your shoulders.  You are a pioneer; you are a first waver.  Your sensitivity was your superpower, your solitude was your training, your weariness is your badge of honour.  You have successfully completed the most difficult part of your mission; you held the light.  You anchored the frequency, you survived, and now your mission is entering a new phase.  You are no longer here just to survive; you are here to guide the second and third waves.  Your younger soul siblings are now waking up.  They are feeling the confusion and the energetic symptoms that you have been navigating your entire life.  They need your wisdom, they need your calm, they need the quiet strength of someone who has already walked the path.  Your new mission is to simply be a lighthouse.  You don't need to preach, you don't need to convince, you simply need to stand in your truth to embody the peace you have fought so hard to find and to be a stable loving presence for those who are just beginning their journey.
