The oldest lineage

In starseed teachings, Lyran energy is often described as the oldest of the star lineages, tied to a homeland that was lost. Whether or not you take that literally, the felt experience clients describe is consistent: a deep, almost cellular memory of loss, paired with fierce independence and an instinct to lead rather than follow. Lyrans are said to be archetypally pioneers: stubborn, courageous and loyal.

Lyran is one Star Lineage connection among several. Most people carry more than one, and Jason does not tell anyone which lineage they are. His core work is tuning into your Galactic Self, the essence that travels with you across lifetimes, and a Lyran thread can come through there, or in any other session, without being named in advance.

Why leadership and loss travel together here

It sounds contradictory. Grief and leadership aren't usually the same story. But Jason's work with clients carrying this pattern points to something specific: people who lead not because they crave the spotlight, but because they remember what happens when there's no one steady in the room. That memory, real or symbolic, shapes how they show up.

Signs you may feel a Lyran connection

You feel most alive when you're building or protecting something, not managing someone else's vision.

Authority figures who lead badly frustrate you more than most people. You notice it, and it costs you something.

You've been called stubborn your whole life, and you've mostly made peace with that.

There's a grief in you that doesn't trace to any single event in this life. It's older than your biography.

You'd rather start over from nothing than stay somewhere that's compromised.

The independence, unpacked

Fierce independence can look prickly from the outside, and Lyran-resonant clients often hear that feedback their whole lives before they ever hear the word Lyran. What's underneath it usually isn't a rejection of people. It's a refusal to depend on structures that can't be trusted to hold. Once someone with this pattern trusts a person or a group, the loyalty runs deep and lasts. Getting there is the hard part, and it's rarely fast.

This shows up in how Lyran-leaning clients approach spiritual work too. They tend to test a practitioner before they open up, asking harder questions, watching for inconsistency, less willing to simply accept a claim on faith. Jason has found this pattern responds best to being met directly rather than softened. Straight answers, no over-promising, room to walk away if it isn't landing.

The grief, unpacked

The grief that shows up with Lyran lineage in starseed teachings doesn't behave like ordinary grief. It doesn't have a clear cause, a funeral, a breakup, a loss anyone else can point to. It surfaces at strange times: during a sunset, in an empty house, listening to a piece of music that shouldn't mean anything. Clients often describe feeling embarrassed by it, since there's nothing in their current life to explain the depth of the feeling.

Jason doesn't treat this grief as a problem to solve. In his framing, not everything is meant to be removed, because the healing is sometimes the path itself. The goal isn't to make the grief disappear. It's to give it a place to exist that doesn't require justifying itself to anyone.

A different way in: through Sekhem

Lyran energy connects to Sekhem through Sekhmet, the lion. Where Sirian, Pleiadian, and Orion energy show up in his sessions as the archetypal forces behind Horus, Sekhmet, Thoth, and Anubis, the lion carries the Lyran thread: the pioneer, stubborn, courageous and loyal. Jason's Sekhem energy healing sessions include more than Egyptian energies, so a Lyran connection can also come through in other forms. It can surface in tarot work and in Spirit Guidance Mentoring too, where the felt sense of that old loss and that leadership instinct gets named and worked with directly, one week at a time.

Frequently asked questions

Why is Lyran called the oldest lineage?

In starseed teachings, Lyran history is often placed before the other commonly named lineages, tied to an ancient homeland. This is a teaching within the tradition, not a historical or scientific claim, and Jason presents it that way.

Is the grief associated with Lyran energy something to fix?

No. Jason's approach treats it as something to understand and integrate, not eliminate. Not everything is meant to be removed. Sometimes the healing is the path itself.

Does leadership have to mean a formal role?

Not at all. Plenty of Lyran-resonant clients lead a household, a friend group, or a single project quietly, with no title attached.

How would I find out if I have a Lyran connection?

A Tarot and Energy Signature Reading is the direct route. Jason tunes into your Galactic Self first, before the cards, and shares whatever comes through for you specifically. Star Lineage is an optional add-on, offered only if you ask, and it is best explored through an experience like meditation or tarot. Jason does not tell people what lineage they are.

I relate to both Lyran and Sirian. Is that possible?

Yes. People usually have several star lineage connections, and any of them can come through in any type of session. A reading works with whatever actually shows up rather than forcing a single label.

Does Lyran energy connect to the Neteru?

Yes, through Sekhmet, the lion. Jason names Sirian, Pleiadian, and Orion energy as the star family behind the Neteru in his Sekhem practice, and Lyrans are said to be archetypally pioneers, which fits the lion: stubborn, courageous and loyal. His Sekhem sessions include more than Egyptian energies. Lyran themes of leadership and old grief also get worked with directly in tarot readings and Spirit Guidance Mentoring.

What does it mean if I don't feel any grief at all, just the independence?

Not every Lyran-resonant client carries the grief piece strongly. The lineage describes a range of traits, and people connect with different parts of it to different degrees. Independence and leadership on their own are enough to place someone in this pattern.

Is there anything I can do on my own before booking a session?

Simply naming the grief, in a journal or out loud to someone you trust, without needing it to make sense, is often the first real step. You don't need a session to start that. What a reading or mentoring adds is a second perspective on what the grief and the independence are actually pointing you toward next.
