I’ve spoken a few times on the process of emergence that I believe all lightworkers – and perhaps everyone on the planet – is going through. (1)
I’ve never really examined it from the standpoint of being called forth and calling myself forth.
Let me bank on a familiarity with the process of emergence and start from where that leaves off.
When I looked at my process some time ago, I saw a pattern that led me to ask Michael if he was “calling me forth.” This was after a strong disagreement I had with a colleague. I didn’t feel guilty and I was wondering if I “should.”
AAM commented:
Archangel Michael: It is time for that assumption of leadership responsibility to be front and center. So the avoidance due to prior injuries – terrible injury, particularly to one that has been in a leadership or cutting-edge position not only upon Gaia but elsewhere – that was deep devastation.
Now, I am very busy healing the wounds of war and who do you think I am starting with?
My inner cadre, and, dear heart, that includes you. I need you as you need me.
Steve: You are calling me forth, right?
AAM: That is exactly what is happening. That is why this line in the sand is being created [an incident in which I felt I needed to assert my authority].
It is not about the old realm of control or greed, or anything like that. It is, in order for the plan to be unfolding, in order for the practical building blocks (which is what you’re asking for – money) to be in place, there has need to be a very strong re-assumption of leadership. …
You are getting there. Simply bring [leadership] back up, dear heart, and let it flow. It is dormant. You haven’t been attending to it as vigilantly as you might because you have been worried and in fear around finances. Be re-assured and go forth. (2)
What is the “me” he’s calling forth? Well, as you know, I had an experience of that “me” on June 12, 2023. (3) I used to call that “me” the “Commander” and “Big Steve.” Psychologist Eric Berne (Games People Play) called it an “Adult” ego state. (4)
Werner Erhard used to speak about “presencing” the Self. For me, that covers the same territory as what I term “calling myself forth.”
I can tell you how I pick up a glass. Ride a bike. Drive a car. But I can’t tell you how I or anyone else presences the Self. It’s something we don’t usually do unless needing to lift a car off our child.
The philosophy that has programmed out of us that we have a Self to presence is called empirical materialism, the belief that only what we can see, hear, and touch (i.e., sense) is real. Most people get how to presence the self or call ourselves forth, I think, as a realization or a revelation or guidance – an “Aha!” moment.
Calling myself forth, presencing myself we often called “arriving.” It’s something I’ll have to practice and process again. It’ll be required in any of our dealings with our star family, I imagine, and in any of our leadership initiatives.

(4) Mike Quinsey may be referring to it when he speaks of his “Higher Self.” (I don’t know.) Use of the term “Higher Self” usually refers to the Oversoul, which is a Seventh-Dimensional version of ourselves.
I experienced my Oversoul at a 2011 meditation retreat and discussed it with Michael at my next reading:
Steve Beckow: I had an experience at a meditation workshop in which I felt regal. It was a partial experience. Can you tell me what that part of me was that I accessed.
Archangel Michael: … Your Highest Self, your Oversoul, is very regal.
SB: So that was an experience of the Oversoul.
AAM: Yes. (Archangel Michael in a personal reading with Steve Beckow through Linda Dillon, Sept. 13, 2011.)

Based on that experience, I don’t consider my “Commander” to be my Oversoul. He’s the same dimension as me, but … Adult, as Eric Berne says. (See also “Me and My Higher Self,”
