Heaven's Rainbow

The following is a description of each of the main "color" levels of Heaven. The levels of Heaven are broad bands, with some room to maneuver up and down within the band, before changing levels. The colors of the soul's auras gradually change, so at a glance you can see which souls are about to move up, or down a level.

Red

The outermost level of Heaven is red. This is the only level where the other souls are not just as "good" (or "bad") as you are. There is a larger variation here than in other levels. This level is composed of souls that have turned away from God's concept of goodness. They lose their ability to share thoughts with other souls, and become trapped in their own minds. Their world can become a living nightmare. This level can seem like Hell. They are not condemned to this level for eternity. They are free to change and progress to higher levels. The souls that are closest to the Orange level can sometime visit it, during periods when they wake up from their dreams. In fact, some of them would be at the Orange level, except that they chose to shun other souls, or are punishing themselves. The souls in the lower sections of the Red level are trapped, not by God, but by themselves. If they ask God for help, He will help them. If they choose instead, to part from God entirely, they lose God's protection, and they can be absorbed by Evil. To be lost forever to Evil, is the true Hell.

Orange

The souls of the orange level are not quite as limited as those down at the red level. They are mostly souls that have made mistakes, sometimes terrible mistakes that hurt others deeply. Many of the souls here are punishing themselves. Unlike the red level, however, they can communicate with other souls, and are not necessarily alone with their thoughts, unless they wish to be. The orange level is a kind of wake up call for souls that have gone astray. Souls don't usually stay at this level for very long. They either end up falling all the way to the red level, or manage to return to yellow. Although they could visit the red level, souls usually don't choose to do so.

Yellow

Newly formed souls, and most of the younger souls are found in the yellow band. They can share thoughts with other souls, but have little personal experience to share. Many of them are eager to share thoughts with souls that have experienced a life, or several lives, first hand. Souls that have only experienced one life, often stay at the yellow level. The yellow level is the transition point between mostly good and mostly bad, in Heaven. Some souls are first formed at the yellow level, and never leave it. They never experience a life directly, and they never visit other levels. Souls that take a chance with a life experience, and those that visit other levels, are most likely to want to advance, and to succeed. Souls at the yellow level have the ability to visit both the orange and green levels.

Green

In Heaven, all the souls at your level are just as good as you are. At the green level, and above, that means they are very good indeed. At the green level are the majority of basically good souls. They are beginning to think more about the needs of other souls, rather than themselves. In a way, they really don't have to worry about themselves, because everywhere they turn, there are souls that care about them and want to help them. Most souls that experience multiple lives eventually progress to the green level. Sometimes, after a bad life experience, they regress a level or two, but they usually manage to return to green again. Most souls are happy at this level, and only a small portion of them seek to advance to the violet level. They visit other levels, but it is usually so they can be with souls of friends and family from their life experiences. They can visit up one, or down two levels.

Blue

The blue level is filled with the teachers in Heaven. They have usually experienced many lives. Most of them are the "older" souls. They routinely visit lower levels to teach, and to serve as good examples. They can visit up one, or down two levels. They visit the level above them, to learn. They are still likely to pursue additional life experiences, but often with long periods of time between lives. It is common for souls to reach the blue level, and then sink back to the green level, perhaps more than once. It is unusual for a soul that has reached the blue level to sink below green.

Violet

The souls in the violet level are at the transition point between the outer and inner circles. They teach the teachers from the blue level. They are far less likely to seek additional life experiences. They can form a small group consciousness. They begin to assist more with the duties in Heaven. They act as guardians, they help with the reconciliation process, and they help other souls form the connection necessary for them to have another life experience. They counsel souls that have had bad experiences, and try to set them on the correct path again. They can visit up one level, and down three levels. Some of them can visit down four levels, but it is unusual for them to visit down more than two levels. The transition from violet to the inner circle is greater than the difference between any two of the lower levels.
