Internal monads (or milestones) are seven transitions that people may experience in a full lifetime from birth to death. They are essential physical plane experiences.

Similar to the 7 levels of a particular soul age, the Monads can be considered sub-levels of each level within a soul age. It may take several lifetimes to complete each monad, and successful graduation to the next soul age level is often contingent upon the completion of the 7 Monads.

All Internal Monads begin in the negative pole, which explains the inner turmoil that often occurs. A Monad is finished when the problems have been addressed, and the issues properly resolved in the positive pole. Leaving a Monad from the negative pole can result in staying there in all subsequent monads, or not completing them in that lifetime.

The internal monads are like two sides of the coin, and known for their duality. They are almost Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in nature, where the positive pole represents the true personality of the soul, and the negative pole reveals a shadowy side that lives in fear and illusion. Much anxiety and internal warfare is created by this tug-of-war, and it is not resolved until the lessons of that transition are accepted and peace is made with them.

The external monads are arranged between two people in order to have a specific learning experience. There are many different kinds of monads, some created specifically for unique circumstances.

Common experiences are husband/wife, parent/child, sibling monad, teacher/student, attacker/victim, leader/follower,healer/healed, hopelessly loving/hopelessly loved, pivotal/facilitator, and etc..
