Stepping into being

One of the many things I learnt on my journey has been that we all must choose our place, take up a stand and make informed decisions about what we want from ourselves and our life.  We are all going through a major change, an evolutionary jump into who we are becoming, the Homoluminous, no longer will we be tied to the “we’re only human” mentality  when things “go wrong” or we make the “wrong choices”,  we will start to see that neither of these are actually true, everything is perfect just the way it is, and the choices we make are correct at the time we made them (based on the knowledge we have, and circumstances of that time)  The time is now that we drop all the stories of who we have been, and who we think we are, honour them as these were the times when we grew into who we are today.  And who we are today is changing.  We have been here for millions of years (linear time anyway!) we, our consciousness/spirit has been here since the dawn of time, or maybe before, now we are taking the next leap, the next step up into our evolution, but this time we are stepping off out into the unknown.  We have never done this before. 
Apart from staying connected to the earth, and not taking life personally, what do we need to do? How do we step into our becoming?   I didn’t quite know what “stepping into” meant, We were told to ”step into Daykeeper” “Step into Earthkeeper mode” I had no idea what this meant until the time I went to a fire ceremony some time after my rites’.
During a fire ceremony once you have called the four winds, you say your prayers to the flames, during this time, if there is more than one of you, someone stands behind you arms out to protect that person from anything behind them, so they can concentrate on what they are doing and not have to worry about what’s going on behind their back. I saw someone go to the fire so as I was nearest I stood behind them, opened up my arms and closed my eyes, I had no idea what I was supposed to do or think, I just stood there, then I remembered the Earthkeepers, standing just like this, arms and wings out stretched holding sacred space for us, as I thought of them I was suddenly there with them, holding space high up around the earth, I remembered what it is to step into Earthkeeper, I remembered I was joined to this lineage and I become Earthkeeper, just for that moment, holding sacred space for this being.  A little while after the fire a friend of mine rather shocked asked me “What on earth did you do? You totally disappeared at the fire! All I could see was the horizon and fireflies!”  I was there but holding space…in space….I had stepped into timelessness and stepped into Earthkeeper.  You simply be what you are destined to be, be who you want to be, be who you are becoming………simply be…..

Awakening

Our final rite was the Spirit rites’ where we ask the presence of Great Spirit (God) to be with us.  Before we entered the room where the ceremony was to be held we first waited outside the door, there was expectancy and excitement in the air, we were each smudged before we entered into the sacred space and the presence of Great Spirit.  As we quietly entered in to the room I saw a beautiful alter of candles, and two circles of chairs facing each other, I sat down feeling quite nervous, this was the big one! Was I going to “meet my maker”? The last rites had steadily gotten stronger and stronger and more and more powerful “what’s this one going to be like!?” Sacred space was opened and already you could feel the tingle of power in the room, then a small ceremony was performed by four people who had already received these rites. In a circle they stood, arms raised up to heaven calling Great Spirits’ presence, all four of them did a group hug so all four foreheads touched and that was it…….the air became thick with electricity, the nervousness rose within me more……..It was my turn to receive the rites………….I didn’t feel much, not at first, in fact I was almost a little disappointed, I didn’t expect to levitate off the chair while beams of light shine from my palms, but I thought there must be more to this, then I was aware I didn’t feel much at all, nothing, I was at peace, such a beautiful peace, almost alien to me I didn’t recognise it, yet around me I saw in my head the biggest storm all around us, I could feel it, a storm so big it filled the sky for hundreds of miles, and we were right in its centre, calm and still, timeless.  The energy became so thick the IPod blew up!

Giving the rite felt again quiet and still, almost like I no longer existed, I did not matter, insignificant, yet I was a part of something so great and wonderful that it was more important than anything else. I had a feeling, Like a quiet and gentle realisation, I remembered I was god.
These rites gave me grace, the understanding that I like everyone else, is a co-creator of the infinite, Spirit gave us this garden, it’s our job to finish it.  Spirit is everything; us, the trees, the whales, the ants, the IPods…..there is only Spirit/God…..therefore that is what we are…spirit….you and I are god, masquerading as you and I.  This rite gave me the consciousness of this realisation, and looking around me at all the other faces I saw the many faces of the One.
It got a bit too heavy, or light? So we ended this rite by dancing wildly to hard core drum and base music! Which was ecstatic! We pounded our feet into the earth, anchoring this light into our reality, bringing heaven down to earth….

Let the sun shine!

The Starkeepers rite was wonderful and quite electric!
We started our spirit journey on a beautiful summer day, blue sky and warm sunshine, I walked around a green pasture and watched a beautiful eagle swoop and circle around my head, and as I watch it swoop down towards me, I took the opportunity and jumped on its back…up and up we went, I looked down and I was no longer sitting on its back, I was the eagle! I flew higher and higher up into space up to the sun, and I watch the fires of the surface of the sun burn and dance, I knew I would not be burnt, so I dived down into the molten lava, I flew past a liquid light waterfall and saw a doorway, a wormhole like in “Stargate” the movie, and through the reflection I saw people, golden people, men women children all beautiful, golden, working and playing, singing and dancing, celebrating life, these were us, our future selves 10’000 years from now……..the waterfall fell back down and looked around me, there were golden people here too with me! I flew to them and said my greetings; these people had always lived here on the sun, beings of light, the Starkeepers.
I was shone a pool where some of this liquid light had fell and rested, I flew over to it and dipped my beak into it, and took a beak full….I flew up and up and out of the suns atmosphere and a great burst of light erupted from a part of the sun, I flew back and saw all the planets all aligned up, the most beautiful was my home……as I flew over houses and cities I dropped a drop of this light at as many homes and faces as I could, until I finally slid off the back of the eagle and she flew up out into the universe.
The rites were powerful, what do you expect downloading the sun! Receiving this energy was electrifying, my body jumped and jerked I became so hot I actually thought the sun was directly on me! My spine tingled and became increasingly warm and in my head all I could see was light.
When I was giving these rites the feeling was very different, I felt like I had the most beautiful gift that the more I gave it away the more it increased, I felt like a giant, so tall that sitting down I could reach up and touch the sun itself, my hands tingled as I let the light of the sun shine through me into the protégé.  I felt like a surgeon grafting a new body of light onto a human body, it felt wonderful…..awe inspiring………that evening I sat on a hill and watched the sun go down over the old Abbey ruins, the Shaman came over and gently drummed a song to the sun and the earth….I closed my eyes and saw distant memories of dances to the sun….when the last spark of light had finally left and darkness wrapped its wings around us, I look up and saw that many other people were all sat around us watching the decent of the sun.

A Celestial Message

One sunny afternoon we went on a spirit journey to the Upperworld.  W e sat outside under a huge evergreen tree, with eyes closed we sat or laid down under it waiting for our journey to begin.  Huge dragonflies came to great us each individually, giving its blessings that we may enter the Upperworld. 
My journey took high up into the world tree, up through its sap and into its branches higher and higher until I met with Patchakuti, the keeper of this realm.  The place was beautiful, an iridescent garden of colours, rainbows, crystal flowers and glass-like trees blowing in a shimmering wind…..WE spoke of meeting my celestial parents, the parents who created me, the soul me.  In the distance I saw two shimmering golden lights walking towards me, as they got closer they slowly morphed into images, two people, a masculine figure and feminine figure, though whether they were male and female I was not sure…they raised their arms around me encircling me in their light, I felt such warm affection, I didn’t know them but part of me knew that I did, and I knew it would be a beautiful reunion once I had passed over, again… they spoke to me in images and thoughts, showing me two streams of liquid, one crystalline one golden, they poured down and formed a double helix like a DNA strand, they explained to me that once upon a time we were given the other strand but kept it hidden and shrouded, and now is the time to uncover it and switch it on, we are part golden light and part crystalline beings…the image poured into a bubble of light and was given to me….
We all descended up a ladder to the higher planes….this place was golden, I could hardly see anything as all I could see was gold, and as we entered I saw many being there, like children all really excited to see us, all stepping on each other’s toes to get a better view! I walked over to a group of people and they circled around me I felt such affection and love as I had never experienced before. 
They gave me a message….We must all find our soul group, the group of being who you came down to earth with, not our “soul mate” our soul group…the crystalline energy will be switched on within us soon, it has always been in the plan, we need not worry about a thing, they are doing all the work for us…..we will all be illuminated, the choice is yours if you want to do it consciously or not…..we don’t have to do anything, we don’t have to be anything…Just exist….just be…while these simple beautiful messages were given to me, there were thousands of images flashing in my brain, information, science, chemistry, sciences that I do not know even exists in this world…so much information! Matrix downloads?!!
I brought back with me a crystal, which I hope to find in this world soon!  I said my goodbyes and went back down the ladder, I said my goodbyes to my celestial parents and to Patchakuti and back down the tree.
I awoke and watched to dragonflies buzzing around our heads and listened to the wind in the trees and basked in the slight of the sun…..we all congregated around in a circle to discuss what messages we received.  In life we are all a piece of the puzzle, we each hold that piece ready to share it, just like the Wisdomkeepers, and together we can the bigger picture…..the messages we all received were very similar, ‘just be’ ‘crystalline energy’ ‘Honey bee’ (the hexagonal shape is the shape of quartz crystals crystalline structure…) ‘gold’ ‘community spirit’ ‘how can we best serve?’ ‘Groups’ ‘gathering’ ‘be, who you are supposed to be’….The puzzle is starting to emerge.

Up the Mountain and Down Again

The Wisdomkeepers are the keepers of the sacred mountains, they hold the stories and the secrets of the universe and of life, until the time comes to share it with humanity.  Even though this wisdom flows down like silver streams of crystal water, it is so great that it has to be held for us, and given to us at the right time....imagine giving a 3 year old a book on physics, it’s not the right time. (Though I am sure they probably would get it more than we think they would!)  The path of the Wisdomkeeper is a solitary path of greatness, and great responsibility.
This night we were told we are going on a spirit journey, but this one is in the physical realm.
I am told….(and this is not a quote!) This is a solitary path, a journey we must make on our own, do not talk to each other, or to anyone who will try to talk to you, do not be tempted by them, do not make eye contact…. You may see people who will want you to talk to them; they will want you to interact with them they may ask for your help or assistance. Do not. We may find archetypes of the wounded king on the mountain, do not talk to them. Keep silent, keep focussed, and think of what you want Great Spirit to grant you. Be careful of what you ask, because it will come true. And be sure that you ask that it comes with ease and grace……
There was a real sense of nervousness in the air, especially from me!! “What am I going to say? What do I want?” We are told we may see things, there are doorways on the way up, sense them… ask permission to go through them, ask the gatekeepers….the Tor at the top used to be a part of a great castle, possibly the great kingdom of Camelot, Isle of Avalon, Kingdom of King Arthur.  Some people claim to have seen it, the castle is still there, shifting in and out of focus, in and out of time and space…..
We left the confines of our bubble like home, in silence.  We walked up the road, in my head thinking, what am I going to say? I just wish to be  a great vessel for healing and light to flow, whatever that may be, and to be a part of the changes, to help with the transition for all people and the earth, and to help bring back the divine feminine to our consciousness.  We walked to the sacred springs, two beautiful springs, one masculine, one feminine, and in the darkness of the night, we saw two drunken guys sat in-between the springs, I do not know what we must have looked like, I stifled a laugh as they called out to us;
“Oi! Wha you lot doing?......talk then!…...” 
“Ah they don’t wana talk to you mate, hahaha!” 
“Go on… talk to us….. We won’t bite, hahahaa!….whats goin on??”
We waited in line to drink from the springs, all I wanted to do was laugh! It was so funny! Laughing not only from a comedy view point, but laughing because they were the wounded kings! This can’t be happening!  A bit further down, very strange witchy characters walked past us, from where I do not know, smiling secret smiles at us, one caught my eye and I looked down very quickly, I heard someone walk past and say something to one of the group as if they knew them, the group member walked past in silence, spooky! We stopped for a moment and our guide spoke to the gatekeepers of the other realms to let us pass and be in the presence of the great king…we kept going up the dark hill, every now and then something caught my eye, fairies? Wouldn’t be shocked if it was!! I looked up and saw a huge wall, white and beautiful, I thought, “Oh, I didn’t know the Tor was quite so big…” I kept going, and looking up again, the wall was nowhere to be seen!  Did I just see a part of the Castle of Avalon?
 As I got to where I saw the wall, there was a line of rocks in the grass in the same position a wall would have been.  In my head I could almost see the walls and sense the guardians there, we stopped a few more times asking for permission to pass, we were inside the castle walls...I sensed we were in a great courtroom.  We went inside the actual Tor, and we opened sacred space……in silence and in turn we each held up our swords (rattle) and made our dedication and vows to Great Spirit, and asked for what we wanted with ease and grace, each member spoke in their own language, it was beautiful.  I felt it was my turn, and after reciting it over and over in my head, I spoke…………….but I forgot to ask that it came with ease and grace! Oh rubbish!  I whispered over and over under my breath, may it come with ease and grace, ease and grace, ease and grace.. We then toned for a while… I toned the words ease and grace!! I think it worked…after a while an eerie silence fell upon us, we closed the space down and walked outside.
As I looked up, it was as if Spirit had opened up the night sky especially for us, or opened our eyes to it, on top of the world looking out into the distance I saw my future, my responsibility, the moon glowed a beautiful orange and the star………I have never seen so many stars, like the whole sky was filled with them, beautiful and breathtaking!
The whole world was around us….I felt such humility, such honour to be a part of this....we went back to our bubble to perform a fire ceremony, we each took our bundles which we had been using throughout the week (I will explain another time) and placed them on a the fire while each of us sat in front and fed our rites with the flames.  As the Dispacho was placed in the fire we all turned around with our backs to the fire, all I could see were stars and all of our shadows as tall as trees, just like the Earthkeepers!
