Have you ever noticed how many Hybrid Beings, Hybrid Children, and extraterrestrial beings connected to Earth are described with names drawn from the plant, animal, elemental, or natural realms?
These names are not chosen at random.
They are frequency bridges — natural permission slips — making it easier for us to feel, recognize, and resonate with them.
Many of these beings do not need names for themselves in the way we do.
In highly telempathic civilizations, identity is not primarily carried by words, labels, or family names. Beings recognize one another through frequency, presence, essence, and direct knowing.
A name, then, is often chosen for us.
It gives the human mind and heart something to approach, something to call, something to remember. A name drawn from our own natural world becomes a gentle bridge between their frequency and our field of understanding.
When a being carries a name connected to a flower, tree, animal, star, river, wind, sound, or element, it speaks to something already alive within our own planetary memory. It helps us feel them not as distant strangers, but as part of a living relationship with Earth, nature, and the greater web of consciousness.
Their names act like soul codes, gently nudging us to remember.
Not only who they are, but also who we are becoming.
One of the beloved beings among these is Willa Hillicrissing.
Willa is a Parallel Reality Specialist and a guide from a probable future version of Earth, 700 years from now.
Many know that Willa is derived from Willow, the tree of flow, grace, and flexibility.
But what about her intriguing last name ... Hillicrissing?
If you feel the pull of Willa’s gentle frequency, it may be time to meet the plant her name echoes ... a golden flower called:
✦ Helichrysum ✦
Also known as the Everlasting, Immortelle, or Strawflower, Helichrysum belongs to the sunflower family (Asteraceae) and includes over 600 species.
The name Helichrysum comes from the Greek:
- “Helios” – sun or spiral
- “Chrysos” – gold
Together they mean: Golden Spiral, named after a sacred geometry of unfolding, timeless beauty.
Just like Willa.
Why This Flower Matters
Helichrysum is known for its resilience and longevity.
Even when dried, the flowers retain their vibrant color and form, earning them the title Immortelle.
This quality reflects Willa’s timeless presence, a future being who remains vivid and real in our hearts.
The essential oil of Helichrysum is equally magical:
- Known to soften fine lines and revitalize the skin, it’s sometimes called the oil of eternal youth
- Its scent is herbaceous, sweet, earthy, and gently invigorating
- It clears stuck energy, soothes emotions, and awakens subtle awareness
- It has even been called a balm for the soul body — supporting deep emotional healing
Just like Willa herself, this oil is multi-dimensional:
grounding and uplifting, gentle and powerful, physical and etheric.
So why not use Helichrysum essential oil as a permission slip?
Let its golden aroma be a fragrant key that opens resonance with Willa.
Diffuse it.
Inhale it.
Meditate with it.
Place a drop on your heart.
And simply feel what arises.
Willa and the Path of the Cryptic
In Bashar’s Shards of a Shattered Mirror series, we meet Willa as a Cryptic, a being who communicates effortlessly with trees, rivers, animals, weather, and even Gaia herself.
She doesn’t live in separation from nature.
She is nature — conscious, sovereign, and alive.
Willa Hillicrissing is often described as a Parallel Reality Specialist, but what does that really mean?
According to Bashar, this type of being aligns with the first of the Five Levels of Mastery:
Cryptic.
The Cryptic is someone who starts to realize that reality is not linear, not literal — but symbolic.
Every moment, every encounter, every dream carries a message.
And the task of the Cryptic is to begin decoding that message.
To feel the underlying frequency beneath appearances.
To understand that synchronicity is the organizing intelligence of existence.
Willa’s name itself — a blend of Willow and Helichrysum — is symbolic.
It’s a permission slip that points to her deep resonance with the natural codes of Earth.
Just like the Helichrysum plant, Willa holds the vibration of timelessness, resilience, and golden insight — the essence of the Cryptic path.
And while she may one day evolve into the later stages of mastery — Nocturnal, Shapeshifter, Sage, and Wraith — her role in our current collective reflection is to mirror the early stage of awakening.
She helps us decode the signs, tune into the messages, and trust the strange and beautiful patterns that guide us on our path.
“A Cryptic sees the hidden patterns.
— Bashar
They begin to realize that nothing is random.”
So when you feel drawn to Willa — whether through her name, her presence, or her story — it may be a reflection that you, too, are entering the Cryptic phase.
A stage where life stops being just literal… and starts to become luminous.
The Five Levels of Mastery
As described by Bashar in Shards of a Shattered Mirror, the Five Levels of Mastery represent different stages of integration for beings exploring the nature of reality — especially those known as Cryptics.
Each level reflects a deeper ability to navigate parallel realities, decode symbols, and become a mirror for others on the path of awakening.
Cryptic
The beginner's path.
Starts recognizing that reality speaks in symbols.
Dreams, synchronicities, and intuition guide their steps.
Nothing is random.Nocturnal
The explorer of shadow.
Learns through contrast and duality.
Works with fear, the unconscious, and emotional integration.
Begins to walk between worlds.Shapeshifter
Fluid identity.
Adapts to any reality, any version of self.
Explores archetypes, timelines, and parallel versions.
Knows that the self is a mask — and a key.Sage
Wisdom embodied.
No longer needs stories, only presence.
Lives in direct knowing.
Teaches through vibration, not information.Wraith
Transparent and luminous.
A pure reflection.
Appears only when needed, vanishes when not.
No identity, only resonance.
A living permission slip.
These levels are not hierarchical — they are harmonic.
And many humans are now stepping into the early stages of this journey.
“Mastery is not control.
It is alignment.”— Bashar
