My Journey to the East


The end of the Medicine wheel is an ending and also a beginning.  I finished my journey at the east which also ended at the time of the end of the Mayan calendar, a great death…. But it is also the beginning of my path of Shamanhood, a great rebirth…and the wheel continues.
The East is all about endings, and beginnings, death and rebirth, and the work I have done so far was in preparation to this time, the death of Me, the death of I…and the rebirth of who I am becoming.
I have had so many shifts this year, I am not the same person I was a year ago, I have witnessed that my internal world reflects the external world, what rhythm my heart beats to ripples out into the world around me, as I change, the universe changes too. All is, and Is not.
I became joined to the Kurak Akulliq the Earthkeepers, the Starkeepers, those who mulch the wisdom and light of the stars and feed it to their communities.
I have received my final stones, my mesa is full, complete and yet still only at the beginning.  The east, place of the rising sun, the direction some of us will go when we are ready to leave this place.

  I spent some time in the upper worlds, the Bardo plains of Buddhism, I have visited the stone world, a place of cold darkness, a place before the coming of the light, I glimpsed this world when the only light from lightning flashed across the skies, lost souls walked this place. I found solace in the green lights of the plant kingdom, warmth of the sun shone down finally, the plants were so full of peace and light and gentleness, they caressed my skin. The land of the animals, all the creatures that ever were are here, totems, spirit guides, familiars. The Ancestral realm is beautiful, our soul groups, our soul village, our loved ones….the whales and orca live here too, who’s souls have individuated..Wise old beings…Further still we meet with Pachakuti, a being of great light, higher still we fly to the crystal gardens, the rainbow fields, the city of gold…here we meet the children of our future, and our celestial parents who birthed our souls into being.

I got to experience what it’s like to sit with someone while they are dying…its beautiful…a real genuine privilege, an honour to be the souls midwife as it leaves this place and journeys home, I also got to experience what it’s like to leave this place also, to say goodbye to those you love, and recapitulate your life, telling your story….and then the spirit flight home….I couldn’t go though, I didn’t experience the flight, many others did, I didn’t, I had unfinished business, things I hadn’t said, promises I couldn’t keep, things I hadn’t done…This wasn’t the way I wanted to go.  I know how I want to go now, and I know what I must do to enable me to do this, I learnt a very important lesson that day; while we are here in our bodies, say what you mean to say, finish unfinished business, keep your promises or un-promise them, do what you came here to do….tell your loved ones you love them, forgive, accept, thank….otherwise you will not be able to fly when the time comes, you will have a bumpy ride, and that is not something anyone would want.
 
Death is such a taboo subject, whenever I have spoken about it to anyone, about the east work, I experience similar reaction; nervous fidgeting, strange screwed up faces, ‘deathly’ silence, subject change, awkwardness, yet if I mention a birth of a child everyone is animated, smiles and rosy cheeks all around, so many questions, so many squeals of joy….A Death is the Birth back to Source.  The soul becomes an innocent child again, a child of light, and is brought back into the arms of loved ones the same way it came into this world, full of love and joy and squeals of happiness. Yet we cannot talk about it, kids are hidden from it…the elderly or infirm sit silently while others creep around on egg shells “Don’t say the D word…Ssshhhh..” I have seen great beauty and joy in death.
Personally I have seen death, I have walked with death, I have looked at death in the face, it wasn’t horrifying or traumatic, it just was…an experience, like any other. 
Honouring the deaths in our own lives is important too, the end of a relationship, the end of a career, the end of an experience, and all of them teach us how to die when the time comes for us to truly leave, with our eyes closed and our hearts open.

One Giant Leap For humankind


 
I sat, one of eight million people who watched Austrian born Felix Baumgartner jump from a height of 128’100ft above New Mexico.  Felix was born on 20.04.1969 which in the Mayan calendar means ‘Muluk’. ‘Water’. Deep torrents of emotions, and mysterious undercurrents mix with playful adventure… that sounds like someone who would jump off a space shuttle! The day he jumped was 14.10.2012 the Mayan day sign of ‘Eb’. ‘Road’ which means community, future generation and taking a Giant Step… guess you could say he did that… As I have written before, the Mayan calendar is a map of consciousness,  split into nine levels of consciousness, we are currently at the end of the final level… ready to jump. What I find interesting is it took Felix 9 minutes to fall back down to earth. I watched as Felix went up, he was sat in a tiny specially made space shuttle attached to a giant helium balloon, I had images of Icarus rising towards the sun. As he went up I could sense the whole world in trepidation of the jump.  All people, the earth herself, the land, the trees… all waiting with baited breath, watching him climb higher.

What struck me as I watched the door fly open and Felix manoeuvre himself to the edge was how frightened I was feeling, I could barely watch! In an interview Felix said “On the step, I felt the whole world was watching. I wish they could see what I saw, it was amazing”

His skydive for me symbolises the jump we as evolving humans must all make, as we ascend to a higher frequency level of consciousness we are Now at that point where we veer nearer to the edge and take that step onto the platform, ready to jump.  The fear that we all felt as he looked over the edge of the platform is how we are all generally feeling in our day to day lives; fear, dread, terror, excitement, awe, wonder, humility...

Standing on the edge of the shuttle, Felix said “Sometimes you have to go up really high to realise how small you are”.  I know this feeling, I feel it... I re-member it in the dream. During spirit flight, during that moment of infinity you see how small and insignificant you are and yet how significant and precious we All are honoured and humble.

Just before he jumped Felix saluted to the Earth, it felt like a great honouring to watch this. An honour to the Earth Herself, to our brothers and sisters, to our ancestry... Col Kittinger, who with Red Bulls help, co-ordinated the space dive, said “Our guardian angel will take care of you”. What a wonderful gift to See the Earthkeepers around him, around us... as he stood on that platform he stood shoulder to shoulder with them, holding space for us, with his fellow Earthkeepers, the Angels of the Earth.

The whole world held its breath... the stillness of space mirrored the stillness on Earth as we watched him stand on the edge of the space shuttle. Infinity touched us all in that moment. Then with the greatest of ease and grace he took that courageous step into the unknown... towards home.  Nine minutes later he was home. He broke three world records, and no bones!

I believe this jump is a poignant symbol for us today, honouring and saluting where we have come from, not just our place of birth, but humanities story, our ancestry, our linage, saying thank you and letting it go. The time is NOW that we take that giant leap with courage in our hearts into the unknown, into who we are becoming... on the edge, our hearts will beat faster, beating together, we will feel scared and confused, we already are feeling those things... and excitement, and wonder.... we will each of us have as moment in our lives where we will find that infinite place.... a stillness inside where nothing makes sense and yet everything becomes so clear...and we jump...we may freefall for a moment in the ‘not knowing’ trust it. The world will reveal itself in time as we hurtle at the speed of sound! A sonic hand pulls us forward from our future so we can be informed by who we are becoming and Not by our pasts, our history, our DNA. When we land, we celebrate, and the world celebrates with us!

When we go to that place of infinity, during spirit flight or during a shamanic healing for example, often we come back with a message, a new map, When Felix came back from infinite space and landed he brought back with him a message

“Let me tell you. When I was standing there on top of the world, you become so humble, you don’t think about breaking records anymore, you don’t think about gaining scientific data. The only thing you want is to come back alive!”

At this moment of human consciousness, we learn that nothing matters apart from Being, being Alive, Awake, living the life You chose, a life you deserve... destiny.

Take that jump...
The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.
Don’t go back to sleep.
You must ask for what you really want.
Don’t go back to sleep.
People are going back and forth across the doorsill,
Where the two worlds touch, the door is round and open,
Don’t go back to sleep...

My Journey to the North

My Journey has continued through the Wild West, where I faced my shadow parts and extracted old wounds and lost souls, and now I journey up to the North…..
I started my journey in the South with Great Serpent, Sachamama, through the vast swamps and great lakes of the world, while basking in the sun I learnt how to bring down the Sun to illuminate all of life, I was shown how to remove hucha, heavy energies, in the luminous energy field, allowing us to grow, shedding our past the way a serpent sheds her skin…in this process my wounds were opened up and transformed into three gifts….ecstatic laughter….non-judgment accepting life as it is….and the responsibility of healing my own heart first allowing life to be. 

On this journey I received new eyes to see…I received woven bands of power around me, like garments of elementals providing power and protection…I called back my lost archetypes, ancient and powerful allies within my luminous energy field; a serpent, a jaguar, a hummingbird, a condor…and three Archangels of the Inca people…Huascar Inca…Quetzelcoatl and Pachacuti Inca who now inform me and help me in my life and my practises…

As I said my goodbyes to Serpent I was greeted by a female Jaguar, Otorangol, she came over the rainbow bridge to take me to back with her to her lair where we went back through time, looking through a pool of remembrance, to bare witness to our past lives, enabling us to learn and to heal….I met with my ancestors, who gave me three gifts; the permission to smile, sing and dance…contentment with what is, and peace in my garden…and shine, shining and sharing my talents…..

I travelled through the dark wet tangled forests to meet with the Jaguar people who taught me about spirits and discarnate souls who inhabit the places they shouldn’t, inside us!  I was taught to send them home, and the process of extracting weapons and objects that have festered within us over years, decades even lifetimes, allowing our energy to move, our rivers too become clear once again….On the lowland plains I was greeted by the tribe of the Pampamesayoc, those who built and are the caretakers and gatekeepers of the sacred places.  They welcomed me as their brother and tied me to their tribe….I am now Pampamesayoc, a keeper of the plains and sacred sites….


Jaguar took us back through the chaotic tangled web of life unhooking me along the way, back over the rainbow bridge…to the foot of a beautiful mountain….the North….Apu Ausangate…Hummingbirds greeted me here, Siwakenti Royal Hummingbird…I went upward through the mountains, a solitary journey to take a stand in who I am..My authentic self…..from this high place I could see my life through the eyes of the mythic, from this place I learnt to journey deep in the underworld to reclaim my graces and lost soul parts, missing pieces of myself I have longed for, for eons of time, I reclaimed my ‘elfin’ self, a luminous being of great strength and grace…I found my ‘young prince’ a being of dignity elegance and mature youthfulness….I received my ‘Hunter’ self, the man I am supposed to be, hunter, warrior, provider, and the part of me that is energetic yet  still and graceful, with them came creatures of great power and tools and gifts of wonder and inspiration for me to use.
I journeyed still, higher and higher until I reached the outer atmosphere and journeyed still to the dark and stormy land of the stone people….and met with my Kuyas, and received four more stones….I ventured still until I reached the forest that never was and the plant kingdom…..further on  I reached the land of our ancestors and spoke with the Whales and Orca…..further still to that golden place where dreams are formed, to greet my mother and father of the celestial places, those who birthed my soul into being….and I spoke to our children, the children of the future…..

Amongst the mountains I met an Altomesayoc. A keeper of the high plains, a keeper of secrets...in solitude around a quiet and beautiful fire, I was told a great and powerful secret…I gave my word that I would keep this secret until the time was right to share it, and to keep it still…in sharing this secret with me I was joined to the lineage of the Altomesayoc, Wisdomkeeper.

I stepped into my Shamanhood on this journey….sharing with others my wisdom….My head held high, I spoke my truth…holding sacred space for others…stepping outside of time into infinity, to bring back grace…My new stones contain powerful yet, still illusive to me, medicines…..mastery of time….keeper of secrets…invisibility…lineage of the first peoples….I still need to build my relationship with these…a fire will be created for each…

As I go back down the mountain my Mesa full and pulsing, hummingbirds fluttering and buzzing around…I unhook myself from my place of origin in this life…..free now as a hummingbird I settle, ready to journey on……..

So....What is Shamanism?

Many people ask me “What is a shaman?” or “What is Shamanism?”
A Shaman is a type of priest, a healer, a psychiatrist, they were the first medicine people…they are a conduits between heaven and earth, walkers between the worlds….one foot in the here and now with all its beauty and pain….and one foot in the otherworld, a world of potential, of grace, of spirit, of energy.
A shaman sees the world with different eyes.
We can only see a tiny fraction of the light available to us, all the colours we can see, all the lights and images we know is miniscule compaired to what Is.  Just look at this picture below…

98% of our DNA, scientists claim, is just ‘Junk’
99.9999999% of all solid matter is empty space.
1% of this world we live in is solid matter, its heavy, present, full of joy, pleasure, pain and suffering.
99% of life here is energetic, space, spirit, light…A shaman works in this 99% world, affecting the 1% world we live in.
 The 99% of our body is energy, light, luminous energy, this is what the shaman works with.

Everything you see in front of you is a result of your thoughts and beliefs, everything you can see, feel, touch, smell, taste, is a dream You created, therefore all of the events you see, the life circumstances your experience, and the people in your life who push your buttons are a part of your inner landscape… So if your landscape is full of scare-city, pain, suffering, grief, then that is what you will see, experience and know….but if you heal these wounds within you….you will know the gifts inside them, instead you will experience abundance, pleasure, joy, happiness…...
During my training on the medicine wheel to become a shaman of the Inca tradition, I got to meet my ancestors, they were called through us to speak to us, I met an ancestor who lived in the early 1900s in New York, called Kenny, he was a fun loving kinda guy, an entrepreneur, dreamer, no one took him seriously, he turned to drink and gambling and eventually died of a heart attack..he said he felt like he was one of life’s losers…when we said goodbye he left me a gift “keep shining your gifts, your talents....and keep em laughing, people need to laugh, even if they think they don’t…”
During my interview process, to start my healing journey, I said I felt like a loser.
I felt didn’t seem to be getting anywhere in life, each time I tried to do something I seemed to sabotage it. I started to cry tears of grief, sadness and anger, where did all this come from?  I was tested to see if I had an  entity within my luminous energy feild, I tested positive. You see spirits can live within your luminous energy field, they feel just like your own energy so you wouldn’t know it was there, living through you…the entity was Kenny.  We were connected because we both felt like losers, that was the hook, together we attracted situations in our life that made us feel like losers, opportunities would slip through our fingers, fear would grasp us…..he was honoured, thanked and sent on his way home.
During the illumination process lots of hucha came out, thick dark smog, my luminous energy field was opened up and crystallised energy that became stuck was extracted, this blocked my own energy flow, heavy lumps over my chest and throat were removed, the hook, the 'Loser' part of me was removed….then light was poured all through me, filling up all the gaps that were left in its place, I felt peaceful, still, sacred, I reached infinity.

My fight or flight pattern was switched off allowing me to rest in peace.
When I came back into the room I felt silly, I laughed a little, I brought back joy and something else….”Who cares?!” “Who cares if I’m a loser!?” ha! I laughed more, I felt free, I felt love…I raised up my arms…”SO WHAT!?” I laughed out more..”SO WHAT?!”…“So what?!” I felt free to be me.  I feel that if I fall or fail, I can laugh and get back up and carry on with joy in my heart!
Shamanic healing is a transformational tool, a blessing, a gift, its like coming home, its like finding your family, its like falling in love....to experience it you must be ready to give all of yourself, to open up fully and embrace all of who you are, the good and the bad….Miracles do happen, it’s totally up to you if you want them to......
So shamanism?….its miracle making…

The Journey Begins...

I have stepped into my destiny….I committed to the first step and took it…I said yes…I stepped out of the chaos just for a moment, out of the confusion and uncertainty… through the soft veil of time into connection…munay…infinity…Since I was a kid I wanted to ‘help heal the world of pain and suffering’ now I know that is not what is required of me, it’s not my place or responsibility….My responsibility is to heal myself, to eek out all the painful hooks and let go of all the suffering I chose to hold on to, so I can shine like the sun without casting any shadows on the world, so I can walk hand in hand with others as they embark on their own journey of healing and transformation.
You see I am training to become a shaman…a shaman of the Inca tradition, medicine man, energy worker, conduit between heaven and earth….I started my journey in the south, place of the serpent, place of illumination, place of fire, light, combustion….
To walk hand in hand with someone as you take your step from pain to pleasure is a tremendous experience, more than any other healing experience I have been through…wounds….deep…powerful…unconscious…hidden….all drawn up and combusted…I found it difficult at first to show my vulnerability, to show my dark frightened side, my soft belly, and to bring it up and present abandonment, hurt, self doubt…..then within minutes see it transform into peace, acceptance, joy and laughter….miracles do happen…
I had doubts about myself as a shaman, doubts that I could do it, doubts that I would be any good…fire combusted it…..I stepped into the role of shaman and I realised that the thinking mind has no place in that moment…when you cradle someone’s head in your hands, searching their soul for the vulnerability and pain, and giving it permission to surface…..no mind is required….only presence…..intent…munay….infinity
When the healing happens infinity takes over….it seeps into every part of your being, it seeps into the room and the person you are holding, they have called, its theirs, and all of ours…the world stops…just for a while…but it feels like forever.
The body calls you back, a deep gasp of life and breath, like the first breath of a newborn, and there glowing in the corners of the mouth is a smile.
The illumination process takes that which you no longer need, that which stops you saying yes to life, that causes pain, suffering, illness, and it combusts it with light, the transformational power of fire…serpent, and brings it to infinity…and when you come back, it starts to transform…into love, peace, acceptance, laughter…..enabling you to take a step towards life to pleasure…
Hatun Amaru, great serpent, Sachamama….Thank you thank you, thank you for helping us shed our past the way you so beautifully shed your skin, thank you for your coils of light you so gently and powerfully wrap around us, thank you for helping us feel and sense the deep recesses of the soul to find that which no longer serves us, thank you for helping us to grow and shine so beautifully as you do….Ho…

Serpent Walker
Coils of light wrap around me, as I call serpent to me
Hatun Amaru, Hatun Amaru…
Soft scales gently and slowly enfold me, squeezing the spaces in my mind and soul
“I see you lurking there, un-named shadow….let me feel you, know you, remember you”
Coils of light wrap around me, my breath quickens…my throat cramps up
Hatun Amaru, Hatun Amaru…
No where left to hide, shadows run…pouring the ache all through me…shadow hiding in a Kuya
“Don’t be afraid, you will be my medicine”
Coils of light wrap around me, and like its prey before the kill, I surrender with love and relief
Hatun Amaru, Hatun Amaru…
A little death touches me as the last of my breath is squeezed out
I melt into infinity…..
Coils of light wrap around me, and I am floating on an ocean of light
Hatun Amaru, Hatun Amaru…
My body calls me back…coils of light unravel…leaving me to bask in the warmth of the sun….naked…innocent, I lay like a serpent on a rock…tears rolling down my cheek…
I take a breath…joy fills my lungs…and laughter bursts out!!
All is full of love, and it is glorious…
Hatun Amaru, Hatun Amaru, Sachamama

The Edge of Glory

There is electricity in the air……like a youth’s first kiss, our hearts are a flutter with excitement of what’s to come.  Some people may be feeling fear, nervousness, apprehension; this is quite normal and understandable. 
There is so much noise…noise from consumerism, noise from the media, news, documentaries….noise from the spidery web of YouTube and Facebook, noise in our heads, noise in our words…conspiracies are rife on what will be……”The end of the world as we know it” Elenin, Nibiru, Planet X, red dwarf stars, Blue star Kachina….are the Hopi prophecies about to come true?  The list goes on……earthquakes, tsunamis, solar flares, solar storms, are we about to be thrown into 3 days of darkness? And then into the Stone Age with no electricity?  Planet flips and polar shifts, the earth is turning right way up, what does this mean for us?  Aliens, multidimensional beings, angels, whoever they are they are due for a comeback, who are they? Where will they come from? Are they coming to enslave us and steal our gold like pirates in the night sky? Or are they benign friendly beings, coming at humanities most poignant time in history to help us repair our planet and teach us to live in harmony with each other? To teach us new technologies and sciences? 
We are expected to free ourselves of earthly bonds, abandon the eating of meat and dairy, NO GM FOODS! No to Nuclear power! Recycle! Recycle! Recycle! Pull all our money out of the claws of our friendly banks….Then there is the spiritual side of these changes, we are to become enlightened….ascend…where too?
“We should all be able to see spirit now, glowing orbs and fairy lights….what do you mean you can’t? What’s wrong with you? Clearly you are not enlightened….If you’re happy and you know it clap your hands!....”
Apparently we are asleep, some are awake, and claim to know all your secrets….maybe we are just dozing? Enjoying the lay in before a busy day ahead?
There are more people on this earth than at any other time in our human history.  We are at a climactic point in our beautiful history, on the brink of something extraordinary, somewhere we have never been before, how could we possibly know what is to happen now?  If you follow the Mayan calendar you will know we are at the end of a calendar that spans back to the big bang, a crescendo of energy and time is bouncing back to us, a wave of energy from the beginning of time is pulling back, like a giant elastic band and flipping back to us, transforming everything in its path to the next level of evolution, every spark of light, every molecule, every atom, every cell, every strand of DNA, every soul, even the spirits and ascended ones…..
We are on the brink of something beautiful, profoundly illuminating.
We are all in this together.
No one is excluded, through choice or through decision, unified we are about to step into the unknown, off the edge of glory. 
The River of Change has caught everyone in its watery waves…..no one has been left out.  The Great River…..a river of time….14 billion years of energy is behind us excelling us forward into evolution….the power of Great spirit Unified.
We have rode the waves, been knocked on the rapids and rocks….each of us is learning to push off to the centre of the river, to float along the current with the waves over the rapids, feet first into the new, looking for who is in the river with you, laughing and celebrating this time.
Some are still trying to carry who they think they are, slowly going under the water, chocking and spluttering…some are still trying to swim away from the future and uncertainty, exhaustion setting in from swimming against the current, clinging desperately to whatever or whoever is in the water with them….some are still clinging to the side, fingers torn and arms aching unable to step into life….some are even swimming with the current, getting to the future quicker, but missing who is in the water with them, unable to see where they are going….
All of us will get to he end of the river….What happens to someone actually falling over the edge of a waterfall? Excitement? Fear? Terror? Then you are unable to see, chaos, deafening noise, then as you enter the pool below… silence…..calm, then you find yourself in another river, calmly bobbing about, exhilarated from the ride, listening to the birds singing and the lapping of the river gently taking you home, the thunder of the waterfall behind you.
This great River of Time will fall over the edge into timelessness, into the calm, the peace, the harmony, into the river of life. 
A new world awaits us, it doesn’t matter what is going to happen, what matters is who you are with, how many hearts have you touched? How many souls have you made feel whole and beautiful? How many children have you encouraged? How many elders have you stopped and listened to? How many sick or wounded have you held in your heart safe and healed?
We do not Need to do anything, or be anything, we do not have to buy or collect or own anything to be able to be a part of this.


Spirit has told me…….
“We are all awakening, we are all evolving, we are all remembering who we are, we had forgotten, now we are remembering……..Be…..Just be…….we are taking care of you, holding you and all that you are…..”
I know this to be my truth……We are on the edge of glory.
“I’m gonna run right to, to the edge with you, where we can both fall over in love, I’m on the edge of glory….and I’m hanging on a moment with you…..” Lady GaGa - Edge of Glory

The Lake

Once upon a timeless time, there was a beautiful clear lake.  For all of time birds and animals have bathed and drank from its banks, children have played and dived into its depths, mothers have washed the family’s clothes and washed themselves during their moon time.  There are so many stories about this lake, strange creatures that may have lived in it, Gods who have stepped into it or drank from its cool depths…..mermaids, pirates, unicorns……Children still swim there and babies are still washed there. The village was going through a difficult time, a twisting and turning of life…Kings became slaves, barbarians became rulers, lovers fought, children acted like adults while adults acted like children, the medicine people worked in the mines and the fields…..The world was upside-down.
During one particularly dark night, the earth shook to its core….Storms ravaged the skies, and water spilled everywhere.  As the dawn began to break there was calm for a while, and as the sun broke over the mountains early in the morning a small child stuck his little nose out of the door, and took a peak out.  He stepped outside and took a deep breath in, he walked gently down to the lake, his eyes were still half shut from sleep as he screwed his eyes up with his hands, he scooped up some water and took a sip, then stopped, and stared deep into the clear depths of the lake.

The morning carried on, people tidied up the mess of the night, people yawning, washing, scratching, eating…The boys mum look up to see where her son had got too, she walked towards him sat by the lake and asked what he was doing…he said ”look mama” and pointed to the lake, she peered into the deep water and tears filled her eyes as she gazed, her heart swam in the deep lake.
More people came over to see what they were looking at and all of them stopped and stared at the scene before them with wonder and awe.  By mid morning, everyone in the village was looking into the lake, by mid day all of the neighbouring villages were staring longingly into the lake, all smiling, some laughing, tears rolling down some of the others cheeks, a beautiful glow came about..Like the glow of a woman with child…
Behind them stood dark shadowy figures, consumed with anger and fear, strong and powerful souls who lost their light a long time ago.  A small girl turned around to see who was standing there and not looking at the prettiness before her, she saw a shadowy figure lurking behind her, she knew who he was, he took from her something no one should ever take.  She stood for a moment….Thought for a minute, then walked towards him….”come on” she said quietly, “It’s ok now, come and look” the shadowy figure shuffled his feet, looking very awkward he took a step forward…gingerly he walked towards the lake with the little girl, grief filled his heart and he began to cry, he didn't think his heart could bare it anymore, filled with anger despair, sadness, and the light and innocence of the little girl he stole from…his was took a long time ago too…as he reached the lake he looked around him, all around the lake people were crying, holding each other, smiling, they looked beautiful!
He looked down, his eyes blinded by the tears burning his eyes, he wiped them with the back of his sleeve and looked into the lake…his eyes widened, breath caught in his throat….and he glowed.
More shadowy figures came to see what was happening…a widower turned around to see who was behind her and a sudden recognition of one of the young girls hit her…she lost her husband to a violent mugging that went terribly wrong….part of the widow wanted to push her away and scream and shout...WHY!! She looked back to the lake….then back to the girl…..”You stole time with my husband away from me, something I will never get back……..but now is the time to forgive…….come…” she stepped aside and let the girl in….her heart was pounding, she had often seen the woman about the village, and always she hide in the shadows away from the guilt…she looked into the water and fell to her knees…she searched frantically for something in the water, then she saw him…and she smiled, she stood up and put her arm around the widow and they cried together.
By the late afternoon, nearly the whole world was looking into the waters
A glow was noticed, from behind them, some people started to shuffle and turn around, from the mountain tops came a troop of glowing people! These Elders had been living in these mountains for over 500 years.....one of them stepped forward and walked in-between the people, as they moved aside to let the elder in he stopped, he looked at the man next to him, saw the dried tears on his cheeks, then looked knowingly into the lake, “oh.....I see...” he said, and stepped back, and calmly walked back to his group.......
The elders spoke;

”What you are looking at is a vision of our world that we have been holding for you....”

“A world of great wisdom and grace, where all people live in harmony with each other and the rest of creation, and all of Great Spirit’s creatures.  A world of love and joy....a world where we take care of the Great Mother as we live in peace on her belly”

“It has been said that there will be a time when everybody will be able to see this vision, and hold it for themselves......that time has come”

“We ask that each of you look deep into the lake and watch your own vision manifest, dream, visualize....then kneel down and drink some of the water, let it permeate your body, let it be a part of you, let it manifest in your life”

An ancient and sacred tree lived near the lake, children called it the Tree House, the elders called it The Tree of Life.  Deep within its roots a rumble emerged....deep within its cracks a light shone....there was a deep earthly sigh and out stepped a foot, then a leg, then a body...”Look!” shouted a small boy.....a figure dressed in dark clothes and furs stood shielding his eyes from the evening sky, black feathers hung around his shoulders and back, he jumped up on a huge boulder and spoke...
“Greetings!”

There was a wave of murmurs in the crowd.

“I am the keeper of the Underworld” his voice was of gravel and soil..Rough like the earth itself....

"I come bearing news from my kingdom, there is chaos.....there is pain.....there is fear....we are all moving into the vision you see before you...a great light....a light so bright we have never seen before, the darkest hour is before dawn, and as we move closer to the light, the shadows become darker and so we are a part of this chaos....We need to hold the visions the elders spoke of, the shadow will get darker, but it will also shrink! and soon it will be gone, and end to chaos...hold your vision and bare witness to the receding of the shadow”

“Hold every moment in your life as sacred....let love be your ritual....let nature be your teacher...listen to your children and your elders...and shine as bright as the sun”

And with his last words echoing in the air, the last beams of the setting sun shone down, temporarily blinding the people, when the people could see once more the elders and the strange exotic man were gone.
The people turned back to the lake...held their visions....scooped up water to drink....and got on with their lives...carrying their light within them.

Unity Consciousness and our Responsibility

What does this mean? On the 9th March 2011 we entered into the last Xibalba, the ninth level of the Mayan calendar, this is not a calendar of time, but rather a map of consciousness.

This level of consciousness is the state of acknowledgement of a simple truth....That we are One.

One mind......One consciousness......One heart......One Spirit.
 
Unity

We are re-membering this fact, we are entering into a phase of life that we have never been before.
The unconscious is coming up to become conscious. Causing all sorts of havoc!
The upper conscious is coming down to become conscious, bringing with it new possibilities....
The underworld, upperworld and middleworld are coming together as one, unity.
What we believe becomes our reality.
We are co-creators of this universe.
Therefore what we believe, envision, share with the world.........will be so.......it will manifest itself.

So what do you bring to this world? What do you believe, say, post on facebook pages and twitter?
Is your wisdom easy to understand by all? Is it positive, inspiring, new, profound, different?



Or is it fear-full, a warning, a vision based on what may or may not happen in the future? Is it re-membering the past, believing it will somehow re-occur itself?



What we say and present to the world has a massive influence on those around us, those we connect with, everyone.....

If we all feared the same thing.......heeding all the warnings......do you not think that just maybe what you fear will come true due to the fact so many people are believing it?



We need the Lightworkers and Wisdomkeepers, the Daykeepers and Earthkeepers and the Starkeepers of this world to share inspiring stories, profound heart warming wisdom, and a vision of a beautiful world.....share your passions and your joy.

We all know what could be, what may happen, we have all read the warnings of this and that, lets honour it and let them go. (If any of these big things actually happen, we have no control over them anyway...surely?)



Focussing on the ‘what if’s’ and the ‘maybe’s’ of these global catastrophy scenarios’ will only bring them to us, and in the end 'Unity consciousness' would be the very thing that became our demise.

We cannot afford now to be reckless with our thoughts and words.
We all hold great power.....co-creators of the universe.....maybe it is time now to stand up & take responsibility?


Lets instead celebrate life; laugh, play, be silly and stupid and immature....be innocent...unload your wear souls of the burdens you chose to carry.........shed your past and your view of yourself....who else can you be?


Let’s bring joy to people’s lives, so the 'here and now' is a wonderful place to be!
Let’s bring heaven down to earth!


What would it be like to live in the Great Garden of Eden?


What would it be like to live as one of Heavens Children?


I leave you with my own joy.......

.......So I followed the black rabbit down the deep dark hole in the ground,

Not knowing where it will lead, on my way down I saw comets flying towards me, solar flares bathing everything in the brightest of lights, I saw strange spirals in the night sky, and even stranger Beings leaving beautiful patterns in our crops....seeing these strange things I feel somehow drawn to them and fascinated..........
My Fourth Night there seemed chaotic, sad, a little depressing, what does all this mean?
Words rang in my ear;
“fear will draw itself to it....”
“What you believe will be...”
"Light will shine on all, and show All...”

The new Fifth Day dawned and I was glad...the day ruled by the Lord of Light? This must be a good time!?

But the light shined, and what was seen, cannot be unseen.....

Among the sights of joy, celebration and inspiring stories of change and evolution I saw sadness, despair, rage, horror....riots, people starving, the suffering of children and animals everywhere, abuse, hurt, our beautiful garden covered in poison and concrete, baked earth, stripped forests, economies falling......fire...tears....so many tears.

What I did not Really See...I saw.

I saw our old consciousness decaying, and all the social, political and economic pillars, which we created, falling.

Our relationships with these things seemed to reflect our inner turmoil.  We identify with these things, and seeing them fall and collapse causes us pain and suffering, which we then share with each other. 

Instead of being rooted in Spirit, Unity, the here and now....we are rooted to the fallen pillars.

 I felt fear. Rage at the world and all who defied her.

My heart became black....a void.....I wallowed in this feeling.............................

 And out of the dark, a tiny sparkle of light shined forth....In my knowing of this fear, this rage, feeling it fully, embracing it fully, I had held it tenderly....and it transformed into peace, and love.

 This great light shined through the darkest part of my soul, I embraced the sadness, the pain, I held the suffering, cradling it like a newborn child, holding it ready to transform, I am still holding it now, dreaming it into joy, love and peace.

 It is still the Fifth Day and I am returning from the deep dark hole in the ground which the dark rabbit took me, as I leave I touch the spirals in the sky with my fingertips, I wave to the Beings who just want to say hello, I toast marshmallows on the fires in the streets and chip ice from the comet for my drink, a drink I raise up in celebration to this wonderful day!

 Let’s celebrate together! Let’s dream!

 The moon is waxing, (full this Saturday on the 13th Aug) a day ruled by the Seeds, lets plant a seed of a new world of light, and dream a new world into being......

 And when the darkest of nights come (18th Aug-5th Sept) Lets shine bright together....

On the darkest of the darkest nights on the day of the new moon (29th Aug) Know in your heart that this evening is ruled by the Sun. 

Shine your inner lights as bright as you can!

More than you have even shined your lights before!

And allow the decay and destruction of the old and corrupt to happen, keep shining as this happens.....

Create spirals in your homes and gardens, and shine, wear your crystals, shine, drink pure waters, shine, eat fresh foods,  shine, pray, shine, create, shine, dream , shine, work on your internal world, shine.....shine......shine......

Wherever you are…..BE there totally….

Everything that is happening right now is of great significance…….In these; the end of times as we know it…..the edge of glory, the cusp of something new and profound, we must BE there totally…
We are waking up.
To those that are still awake….it is time to wake up now sleepy one!……To those of you who are awake, it is your responsibility to stay awake and see beyond the dramas, see beyond the drudgery of news and media, see beyond the wars and cruelty and see beyond the dark cloudy skies.
Know that above the dark clouds is a sky of azure blue, and the most beautiful star, our star, our sun.
Know also that you are not alone, as alone as you may feel know that you are special, loved, cherished and never alone.
Look around you at the beauty of nature…………..the diversity, the complexity, the wonder and awe……Know that you are a part of this, you are diverse, complex, simple, wonderful and awesome.
What are your gifts?
What did you bring with you when you came down to this earth?
What do you love to do?
Take your gifts, bring your talents and skills and go do what you love to do, and think, how can you use this for the service of others?
Be the best at what you are, after all, you are unique. Only you can do what you do the way you do it, we were born this way!
So shine like the sun, who does not cast a shadow, shine so bright you too do not cast a shadow upon the world.
Shine like he brightest star, our star.
