Our Nearest Great Neighbor

The Andromeda Galaxy, also known as Messier 31, M31, or NGC 224, is a spiral galaxy approximately 2.5 million light-years from Earth, and is the nearest major galaxy to the Milky Way.

The galaxy's name stems from the area of the Earth's sky in which it appears, within the constellation of Andromeda. Despite the shared name, the Andromeda Galaxy and the Andromeda constellation are two different things in two completely different locations — the constellation is simply the patch of our sky through which the far more distant galaxy happens to shine.

A Giant Among the Local Group

The size of the Andromeda Galaxy is within the same order of magnitude as that of the Milky Way, at a trillion solar masses. The size of either galaxy is difficult to estimate with any accuracy, but it was long thought that Andromeda is more massive than the Milky Way.

With a diameter of about 220,000 light-years, Andromeda is the largest member of the Local Group — at least in terms of extension, if not mass. The number of stars it contains is estimated at one trillion, roughly twice the number estimated for the Milky Way.

Visible to the Naked Eye

With an apparent magnitude of 3.4, the Andromeda Galaxy is among the brightest of the Messier objects, making it visible to the naked eye from Earth on moonless nights — even when viewed from areas with moderate light pollution. It is the most distant object most people will ever see without a telescope.

A Destined Reunion

The Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies are expected to collide in around 4.5 billion years, merging to form a giant elliptical galaxy. What began as two great spirals will, in the deep future, become one.

The Mother Galaxy

According to my observations in the Akashic Records, the Milky Way Galaxy was actually birthed from the Andromeda Galaxy many millions of years ago, as part of splitting off into a duality consciousness by Source.

“For this reason, I call the Andromeda Galaxy the mother galaxy.”

The Antares stargate was created to be a star portal connecting the Andromeda Galaxy to the Milky Way Galaxy. Through this portal, many etheric (non-physical) beings from Andromeda arrived in the new Milky Way Galaxy to begin the new cosmic experimentation into a more physical reality.

Andromedan Starseeds on Earth

An Andromedan starseed — an illustrated reimagining

Occasionally I do Akashic readings for a few starseeds here on Earth who originated from the Andromeda Galaxy — not from the Andromeda constellation.

These individuals understandably have a difficult time acclimating to the denser frequencies of planet Earth, but they are here out of dedication to assisting with the ascension of Earth to the 5th dimension.

The perspectives in these two sections reflect the author's Akashic Records readings and spiritual observations, offered alongside the astronomical record above.
