Family of Light: Pleiadian Tales and Lessons in Living

by Barbara Marciniak

With compassion and compelling insight, the Pleiadians, those system-busting time-travelers from the future, take us on a journey through the unchartered lands of The Book of Earth , which comprises all human experience. While “our world goes belly-up in these most absurd of times,” they offer us “tools for survival.” During the crucial period between 1987 and 2012--a nanosecond in the annals of existence where secrets and solutions are stored--we have the unique opportunity to move from the deepest of density to the highest of frequencies--where we shift from linear to multi-dimensional living. To make this transition, we must face not only the limitations of our 3-D world with its electronic manipulation and mind control, we must embrace our own wounds, and those of our ancestors and our leaders. To heal ourselves, to raise our frequency from one of despair and fear to one of great inspiration and love, the Pleiadians urge us to rethink and reevaluate our “ You shall change, you will change, you must change, because this is the season of change.”

I would first gave to say, one may wish to read the first book "Bringers of the Dawn" before this book to gain a better understanding of the terms, concepts, and vibes of what this is all about.

I was pretty shocked at how accurate some of these, I guess you could call "predictions", have come to pass, especially with the current gender debates, upcoming 5G, pedophiles and corruption being uncovered faster than ever in church and politics, and the mind control/frequency control on our planet in what's seen (media, television, AI "technological advancements") and unseen (other dimensional entities, shadow government, emotional manipulation). This book is definitely relevant in today's world. There is a call being sent out for us to WAKE UP, but what does that really mean?

It means unlearning what we have been taught, seeing how we've been programmed into a plethora of beLIEf systems, made to give our power of thinking of living of behaving to others outside if us. We do not need leaders we need to develop the inner tools so that we become leaders of ourselves. We are here to save ourselves, to claim back our SOVEREIGNTY.

We are the angel and the demon, the light and the dark, the yin and the yang, and it is ultimately a CHOICE what we choose to manifest.

I personally cannot give it 5 stars because it becomes your typical "love is the answer" bit... Just like "blind hatred", love is also blind. Love and hate are ultimately man-made words and concepts. We ARE Consciousness itself. Consciousness is aware. The greater your awareness, the more expanded your Consciousness. The only real difference between a "loving act" or a "hateful act" is a person's level of awareness.

One with an extremely high level of awareness is automatically in alignment with "best interests" and the "greater good" and doesn't need to entertain labels such as "love" or "hate" which are divisive, same as light or dark or republican or democrat... when all are parts of the whole and these are just labeled aspects of the whole, and as you can see, do nothing but cause arguments and disagreements...

But we can easily all agree to awareness because THAT is ALL of our natural states underneath all of these personal identifications and distractions and preoccupations with sides and labels. Awareness transcends sides and labels and you very simply embody the best version of yourself...

"Self-love" is really just awareness of self value and self worth. Kindness is really the awareness of one's own empathy and awareness of one's ability to help others. And Spirituality is just the awareness of the unseen, innate, and sovereign aspects of your very being and existence...

The heaviness of hate and the fluffiness of love cannot compare to the strength, stability, and power of pure awareness itself and the natural discernment that comes with it. No labels or sides required.

Again, anything she wrotes will awaken you in some way

Okay, this is kind of an oddball book, channeled from beings from the Pleiadies (like the star system), but I LOVE its insights, and am reading it for a second time.

This is the fourth book I've read by Barbara Marciniak about the family of light. Barbara Marciniak's books have helped me a lot in understanding, what I'm going through right now.

[Dina · Rating 3 out of 5]

I was surprised at actually liking this book. It tends to repeat itself throughout, and is written from a second person but i like the overall message of good, light vibrations, time jumping, and that light and dark are the two sides of the same coin.

[Alessandra Dorante · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is an eye opening revelation to our origins, role in this planet and possible futures for humanity. It leaves you off with a sense of hope and a mission to fulfill.

Emotions

Of this book doesn't bring thoughts forward then nothing will..great read,much food for thought,and it will take allot of thought to get through this book..enjoy

[Amanda · Rating 3 out of 5]

There were some insights I gained from this book, though I found it hard to understand at times. The prose was somewhat circular and repetitive, and there were some paragraphs I repeatedly read but was unable to absorb. Some concepts, like the World Management Team, gave me pause and served as a jumping point to form my own conclusions about those in positions of power. The most valuable thing the book gave me was a means to open a dialogue with myself about important things that my culture and education has never suggested I question (in itself suspicious).

My disappointment came from the fact that I thought the book was about the Pleiadians themselves from the title. However, there is almost no information about the Pleiadians in the book.

A case of diminishing Pleiadian returns.

I loved "Bringers of the Dawn," that book felt special, unfortunately the follow up "Earth" was nowhere near as good and the difference is even more stark for this third book of channelling from Barbara Marciniak.

Put simply, this book is dated, promises much, and doesn't deliver. It keeps offering glimpses of fascinating stories about reptilians that are never properly expanded on, and not-quite profound insights. It is also very repetitive. The writing style also seems totally different from Bringers of Dawn, I wouldn't be surprised if this book was ghostwritten or if the "channelling" was more of a collaboration between a publishing team.

Sadly, a disappointment and the end of my Pleiadian readings.

The third book I've read about Pleiadians! Amazing messages in this book!

Just what the doctor ordered for these trying times.

[Brieanna · Rating 4 out of 5]

I am someone who doesn’t prescribe to the notion that I have any idea what’s really going on with anything. I love reading books that require me question reality or my beliefs. This book was fun in that way.

I have never read “Keepers of the Dawn” - but did recently watch “Unacknowledged” and its subsequent sister documentary, “Close Encounters of the 5th Kind” - which states a lot of the same information found in this book.

The stuff the Pleadians claim will begin to happen is supposed to begin happening in 2012 - which was 10 years ago at the time of writing this. However, they discuss a lot of things that are relevant and have been going on. So, interesting read to make you go, “hmm…”

[Victor Rouă · Rating 5 out of 5]

An extremely useful read for any Pleiadian starseed out there! You will definitely enjoy each and every page of this channeled novel as it provides exquisite wisdom from your very own star family, more specifically the Pleiadians. With a fine sense of humour, empathy, compassion, and insight, the Pleiadians make it easier to the reader through Barbara to understand the tangled up tapestry of human life. In so doing, the game of life, which according to the same Pleiadians, must be played with gusto, is therefore more clear. Thus, a must read for any ascending starseed on his/her journey. :)

[Jordan Smith · Rating 2 out of 5]

This was needlessly vague and I found it a chore to read. The dialogue seems to go in circles and repeat the same vague statements about how humans are so misled and yet practical solutions are not offered. If they are, it is not in any great detail. We are told to make changes but not what to change or how. The tone of this book is very “we know better than you, how silly you all are for doing what you do”. There is a lot in here that sounds borderline conspiracy theorist-y. It becomes annoying after it’s apparent that the entire book is written this way. Maybe it just wasn’t for me.

Amazing words

I was drawn to Bringers of the Dawn in 2020, and it became a bible/oracle of sorts for me. Every word felt as if it was speaking to my soul. After reading that book, I wanted to read everything channeled from the Pleiadians! Family of Light was the next on my list, and I loved it just as much. These are books of comfort, wisdom and purpose. If you feel even slightly drawn to them, read them! You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. With love.

[Cordelia Starnes · Rating 5 out of 5]

Enlightening and a fun read!

Once again Barbara and the P's around us with their knowledge and wisdom in a fun and exciting tale of the Book of Earth, our ancient ancestors, and our potential to transcend and to create. I very much enjoyed reading this book. It is one of my favorites! Highly recommend for anyone looking to expand their consciousness!

[Stella Taubenheim · Rating 5 out of 5]

Reading this book unlocked a new level of remembering in me. As it mentioned, this wisdom can only be experienced, and I believe that reading it at the right time can launch you into that journey. I will return to it again and again to remind myself of my innate power and the responsibility that comes with it.

saya membaca edisi bahasa indonesia. meskipun menurut saya penerbit memerlukan editor untuk membuat kata-katanya mudah dipahami, tapi secara keseluruhan buku ini memberikan beberapa pencerahan dan inspirasi.

[Linda Schroyer · Rating 5 out of 5]

Challenges, Mysteries, History and Legends.

All of these are laid out for the reader to decode ... Time-jumpers searching for that specific unique second where the legends were born and the frequencies created to change all time. This is a fascinating book indeed!

An artistic expression of multi dimensional evolution

This book resonates with a frequency that elevates the reader to their vast potential to carry themselves forward in their earth mission. As light workers, we each feel the transcendence of dimensions occurring and the rush of the planetary shift. Our quest as so eloquently expressed in family of light is to hold steadfast to our blueprint of unfolding a new reality individually so the collective will follow. Our time is now, our history is Destiny the time for the restoration of Earth is our mission. ThAnk you for this treasure Pleadians and thank you for your love and support.

[Maryann Rada · Rating 5 out of 5]

As with the other books by Barbara, this one is full of great fireside-talk sort of writings, and imparts an understanding of our place within a galactic family beyond the confines of Earth... which leads to a sense of tribe among those of us here who resonate with the idea of "family of light". Like the phrase "systems buster" from her earlier writings, "family of light" has become part of the language of starseeds and awakened Earth dwellers resonating to a more stellar connection and sense of home.

I don't ever have a finish date nore do I read it cover to cover I Simply stick my finger in a page and bam exactly what needs to b read ! it's a reference guide .I found in a tiny mission town in northern California. in a cozy little book store. simply said "which one of you books wants to go home with me "n here we r 6th.copy later still learning new tools so read with a very opened frequency! :-)

[Mark Mosher · Rating 5 out of 5]

Inspiring book with mind bending insights. Its my third book by Marciniak and I'm equally amazed each time by its powerful message for humanity. The season of change is among us all, whether we're ready or not.

[carlyle g · Rating 1 out of 5]

edit: after growing a lot spiritually and just as a person in general I do think it’s very possible this book is just a bunch of new age bs unfortunately. but, it did help me get through a hard time and I think there are some nice messages if you can get past all the loads and loads of new age bs.
