Don’t expect to see surfboards – or snowboards – on these majestic frozen outcroppings near the Dumont D’Urville research station in Antarctica. (Photo by Tony Travouillon)

Although the waves appear as if they’ve been instantly frozen as they broke from the ocean surface, they’re actually a natural phenomenon of blue ice, according to a report by the Daily Mail. As outer layers of ice melt during the summer months, new layers of ice compress to form the top of the waves. (Photo by Tony Travouillon)...

Astrophysicist Tony Travouillon took the pictures in 2002. While studying for his doctorate, he spent summers from 2000 to 2004 in Antarctica. Although the frozen monstrosities look quite chilly, he says it wasn’t so bad near the South Pole. (Photo by Tony Travouillon)

 
“The temperature was actually quite pleasant since it was summer – around zero Celsius,” recalls Travoullion in an email to Yahoo! “I was passing through Dumont D'urville, which is a compulsory stop on my way to Dome C, where I did some astronomical research.” (Photo by Tony Travouillon)

 
“I walked to these blue icebergs with a group made up of transitioning scientists like me and winter-overs [people who winter in the area] who knew of the location of these beauties,” Travoullion says. “It was just one of the many amazing sights that you can find on the coast of Antarctica.” (Photo by Tony Travouillon)

 
The giant waves covered in a brilliant blue sheen are actually giant icicles, according to rumor-busting website Snopes.com. “The beautiful smoothly polished surfaces are again the result of melting,” it notes. “The transparent ice … has been created in a glacier or ice cap by the slow annealing of ice as it is buried under each year's successive accumulation of snow.” (Photo by Tony Travouillon)...

 
The blue coloring of the ice comes from tiny bubbles in the ice, which diffuse the red light in color spectrum, and leave only blue light to reflect to the human eye. (Photo by Tony Travouillon)

Travouillen no longer spends his days in the frosty climates. Nowadays, he can be found in the much warmer Hawaiian Islands, where he works on the Thirty Meter Telescope project, a giant telescope planned to open in 2021. (Photo by Tony Travouillon)

Nama sika; venia benya I AM the one, I AM the whole

I greet you beloved family. I reach out to each one of you with a flow of energy, with a flow of intention so that we may have this time of gathering together. I know that each one of you is very busy within your life. I know there are days in which you feel distracted. Sometimes as if you are in limbo and other times as if you are spinning your wheels and can barely keep up.

Allow yourself to take this moment to really connect within. Take another deep breath in so that as you breathe in you can feel yourself as you are right now in this moment. Sometimes as people are living their lives they get distracted by all the things that are going on and they forget that connection that they have within themselves. They forget that first and foremost, when they are in alignment within, then they have the greatest potential of balance and awareness for how they may be living their lives.

Is this you in your daily life? Do you feel distracted as if you don’t have the answers that you are seeking or perhaps as if you are wondering, just what am I seeking to have within my life? Feel that as it moves through you. Feel your energy as everything lines up to support and reconnect you within.

Every single day you awaken to new potentials and new opportunities. Every day is an opportunity for you to let go whatever may have been hanging over you in the past and then opening up to whatever may be coming new to you in this moment. If you could live your life with the excitement or the anticipation of a new beginning what would that mean to you? So think about that, as you are here present in this moment and as you are considering your life.

I invite you to focus upon your breathing and take in a deep breath. Allow that breath to move through you. You allow it to anchor within, so that you may then as you breathe out have a sense of letting go of your physical reality. As you release that awareness feel yourself as you link with the magnetic grid.

As you find yourself within this space feel the energy, feel the flow, allowing that you may align with your higher self. You may have a sense of those interlocking pathways. You may also already begin to feel the merging with the crystalline grid. This is but one of the changes that will be taking place with this completion of the Ascension of the earth plane.

There will be less distinction between Earth and the Universe. There will be less distinction between the magnetic and the crystalline grid. You may already be feeling this and may have done so for several months. Tonight, in particular as we merged with the magnetic grid there was an immediate sense of the flow of the crystalline side by side in alignment. Take a moment and really feel what it is to you as your energies move back and forth. From here I invite you to have a sense of letting go of this space, allowing your focus to move into the soul plane.

As you arrive within the soul plane, you can feel that essence or feel that energy. You reach out for your divinity. As you feel yourself align with your I Am presence, you may have that sense that you are even bigger than what you think you may be. Allow yourself to link with this energy, feeling yourself as you connect within this alignment.

I the Goddess, move in and amongst all of you. I reach out to embrace each one. As I do so, you may feel yourself shifting into the space of the All That Is. As you find yourself expanding even further take in what this is.

As you look around with your inner eyes, you may have a sense of the changes taking place in the All That Is. In part this is a reflection of everything that you are doing. In part it’s the way that the universe is balancing what’s taking place on the earth. But also what you are seeing here are the aspects of the All That Is that are now coming available to you because of the shift in dimensions and the shift within and around the earth.

Look, at what you have created. You may use that screen, if you’d like, that we’ve used many, many times before. This time, I invite you to have a sense of bringing up to your awareness your life upon the earth.

Whenever I ask a question like that there are only certain things that are right here at the forefront of your awareness that are in your thoughts when it comes to your everyday life.

I invite you to now take that to the next level. Ask yourself the question, if because we are here and we’re in a space in which you work with energies, you work with change, you work with perception, are the things that came up to you all that you are thinking about but not present within your life?

Human nature is such, that in most cases that is the first thing that will come to someone’s mind whenever we ask you, what’s happening in your life? What are you thinking about? So let’s put that aside for the moment. And now look at your life and consider the success that you have had within your life.

I hear from some of you an immediate list of the things that you have accomplished within your life; a very valid way in which to have that perception of some of the things that you have accomplished. I hear others saying, “I haven’t accomplished anything”, because in your mind that which is most important has not yet happened. So for those people, think again. Think of perhaps the little things. Think of what happens in your everyday life.

There were others that as I asked that question we saw immerse, what I guess you would call an infrastructure of what you are seeking to manifest, your focus being upon what you seek to have. Now then, at any given point within your day you probably varies somewhere between all three of these perceptions or something even more.

If you were to put all of these things that you are thinking about, over in one corner of this screen or off to the side a bit, let’s start as if with a clean slate. I invite you to once more, consider your life as if you had no concerns, as if there was nothing at all holding you back but instead, you would have the opportunity to truly express yourself in a limitless way.

Now, by that I mean, let’s talk about your daydreams for your life. I see that with some of you there is a variation of what you already had been putting forth for yourself. But I see a number of other people have something completely different than what your focus is usually upon.

If you allow yourself to be in this space of the experience of having your daydreams come to fruition, how exciting that would be! And as I’m beginning to speak about it, I can feel the energies shifting. There are those that are stepping into excitement or perhaps anticipation and then there are others who are stepping into fear. It is this fear that I would like to talk about for a moment.

We have in the past brought up the question of; can you be everything that you would like to be? Can you be as big as you think you might be? Can you truly have what you would like to have within your life, moving on and on and on?

Fear can manifest in a number of different ways. It is based most often in your mental body, but it is aligned with your emotions. When you feel anxiety, perhaps about a situation or a potential, your mind begins to give it a lot of energy. You begin to imagine what could happen. You begin to imagine what others may be saying or thinking. You begin to imagine things that may or may not have any validity in a situation. And now as soon as I say that, what comes along on the heels, is that if you give it energy then it is valid. So again, consider your life, consider fears and consider all the thoughts, beliefs that go along with that. So as if you are bringing down the structure of your mental body, have that conscious intention to do so.

Think about your thoughts and fears, about those things that are the dreams in your life. When you consider a dream, chances are you’ve given it form. It looks like this, it will have, you can fill in the blank…XYZ that will enhance it. You may have certain people around you; you may have things that are happening in your life about that. Take it in and see what you think.

So, your dream and the distance between where you are and manifesting it, perhaps is filled with these things that are aligned with fear or perhaps these expectations. No matter what it is, I invite you to reach out and pull it down as if you are clearing out your thoughts, as if you are clearing out your mental body, as if you are clearing out whatever that preconceived notion may be. You clear and clear and clear and clear bring it up — whew– and you let that go.

Again, you allow yourself to feel up with the energies of your divinity that gives you that sense of peace, that sense of recognition and of awareness. Allow that to come up and be at the forefront of what this is.

If you stand in this place of the All That Is, you consider your dreams, you consider yourself. The more that you feel your divinity and you feel the strength and balance of whatever that may be to you, allow that to anchor in within your thoughts, your beliefs, your mental body; from their allow it to move through your emotions, and then it may move through your physical until it aligns with everything within you.

Now here we are in the All That Is and we’re working through your expanded consciousness, but there is still that direct alignment with your everyday physical reality. Take a moment and just breathe down everything that may be going through you right now. Feel those energies as they move through you.

Consider your dream once more. This time really look. You may have a sense of walking around, lifting it up. I invite you though, to look at it with inner eyes and see what may have been unavailable to you before.

You get into a habit, as you do so; you see only what you anticipate seeing. Your mental body especially creates what it’s done in the past and it therefore becomes a challenge sometimes to move towards something more unique and different.

Your world is right in the myths of something similar. As you move through this winter solstice and the completion of the Mayan calendar it is also an indicator of the completion of the Earth ascending into the fourth dimension. Now, the actual shift took place several years ago and it did so as a means of creating a movement very much in part, associated or assisted by all of you and your own process of expansion.

With this completion it’s opening up the door for the billions of people that never give a conscious thought to their lives, to their dreams, to be in balance with their divinity or even what their divinity may be. Some may call this an awakening. I call it an opening to awareness.

Everybody has the potential to continue on living their lives exactly as they have been. You wake up and go about your business, perhaps continuing to have certain dreams and ideas in the back of your mind. Just as I have been working with you right now in the All That Is, you can see that pattern that you already have so solidly in place. It’s what came up to you as you very first asked yourself the question of what your dream may be. We then invited you to just consciously push it aside, let that go. Dream without structure, dream without restriction and there may have been a variation. And then now as I speak of this ascension process you can see how the pattern is there that in so many ways it’s all going to be just exactly like what it has been.

There are going to be two significant changes. You’ll be living your life exactly as you always have been, but first of all your flow between dimensions is going to be easier. Therefore you’re opening up to awareness, is going to be easier. Secondly, the flow of time to the continuum of what you consider time upon earth is changing. It may feel even faster than what it is now, but most importantly, there will be much more fluid.

Consider what we’ve been speaking about this evening. As you consider your everyday life, which for so many of you may be something completely separate from your dreams, have a sense of superimposing your dreams upon or within your everyday life.

Put forth the intention that you allow the flow between the dimensions to now have an impression upon your perception. Another way to look at this is to infuse that crystalline energy or perhaps you’re light body energy into your perception.

Again you look at it. There is a difference. There are other ways in which you will manifest what you seek to have. There is so much more within and around you that you can possibly comprehend. I say that not as a means of putting down anybody, but more so as a means of letting you know, that potentials truly are limitless, and to remind you that when you are and not alignment with your divinity you are much more so in alignment with those limitless potentials. Look around once more. Open to new ways in which you may manifest what you seek to have within your life.

I now pose another question to you. Is what you’ve been seeking to have what you truly want? It makes me smile because I hear so many of you saying, “Well of course it is I’ve wanted it for all these years”. “Well of course it’s what I want because that’s what I want”.

Indeed, this is so. What I posed to you with that question is, how much of what you desire to have within your life is there as that desire because it’s a habit, because it’s what you’ve been used to looking for or seeking. But truthfully there is a part of you that really doesn’t necessarily want that, or if you did manifest it maybe you would have other things that would be a hassle or perhaps get in the way. Maybe it would take you in a direction that truly you don’t want to go. Now then, as I speak of this, there may be a part of you responding and it’s responding from a place of fear. If there’s any resonance to fear take a deep breath in – whew- and blow it out letting it go. Look again with clear eyes, with open awareness and open perception. Be honest with yourself.

As you allow yourself this honesty, feel the embrace from your divinity as it flows even more fully within and around you. As you continue to feel whatever that may be, open to acknowledge that you have the answers within yourself; that you are in the flow of light and in the flow of your divinity. That you can step off of that path that you have found yourself upon and step into, whatever it is that you truly seek to have.

I invite you to all come with me for a moment and have this sense of looking out over the universe. As you look through the Universe may see the stars, the planets that you normally see when you look to the sky. Have a sense of looking towards the earth recognizing where the earth is within this flow of the energy.

As you open up your awareness or your focus, I invite you to have a sense of looking at what is taking place upon the earth, especially as it relates to the rest of the universe. We will speed it up for you so that it will become more visible. But let’s say the past. The first level we want to say is the past 2000 years and it is as if you see the evolution of the earth that’s taking place and then you see what’s happening in the universe. Sometimes there will be a change in the universe that’s affecting the Earth and sometimes it’s the reverse.

This may be very subtle, or you may see actual strains of energy. And now as if you are zooming in, look at your earth as it is. Say perhaps 1987 with the harmonic convergence. And since that particular time, as you continue to look at it with this zoomed in energy, you may follow it down through the years. And as you continue to look you see where it gets to the point, a particular point, and it’s like a switch gets flipped and –whew– that new level of awareness has occurred.

And as this is completed, look out at the universe and see those ripples of effect and then watch as all of that comes back into the earth. This may seem random to you as if there’s no direct correlation with your personal lifetime. But this was to give you an illustration of what’s taking place as the earth ascends into the next level.

Everyone has the ability to tap into those energies. You have the ability to harness that flow of the Universal light and energy so that as you are living your life you will find the greater knowledge that’s available to you. You will find the path of least resistance. You will find the clarity that you are seeking to have as you manifest your dreams.

As I spoke those words I could see how each one of you was thinking about or feeling and experiencing that moment in which you truly manifest your dreams. Look out at the universe; stand in that flow of movement. Let go a feeling of control or making an effort. Receive all that is here for you. Receive the potential for who you are.

As you gather together, you are already looking at the earth and the universe. Have a sense of that subtle shift that allows for the hologram to come up within and amongst you. There is the potential that you will no longer need to work directly with this hologram but for now it’s a means of giving your thoughts and your mental body a process that will help to anchor these energies. So as you see this hologram, you may have a sense of becoming aware of the levels of perception that are spinning in and around all that’s here.

As you infuse within this hologram the essence of your experience, put forth that intention of being fearless, of truly accepting who you are and allowing yourself to be open to receive the energies or the essence of your dreams. And as that flows within the hologram you let go that energy and this time as you have a sense of following it, it is as if there is that pathway of the crystalline grid and you can see how there is an aspect of the hologram that goes out into the universe. It does align with the new earth and then the rest of it goes down within your current physical earth. It moves through the magnetic grid. It moves down inside your physical earth and as it does so it anchors within those crystals, it anchors within the core essence of the earth itself.

And as it’s moving within and anchoring, it’s creating an alignment that will allow you to step into whatever this may be. Once it has become anchored it moves up through all the layers or levels of the earth. It comes up within and around you, wherever your physical body may be. It moves through the physical structure of your body, the biology; it moves through the mental, the emotional, the spiritual aspects of you and into your light body so that you have that direct link from all that you did in the All That Is to all that you can do within your everyday life, and it is there through your light body. It creates a balance and an expansion within you and you let that go allowing your focus to once more come back here within this space so that you may gather up all that you wish to take with you.

If you have a sense of forgetting or not really knowing what to take with you; be not concerned. It’s always there and available for you, should you seek the answer.

Feel your consciousness as it comes back down within you. You may have a sense of letting go part of your divinity within the soul plane. You then allow yourself to move back to the crystalline and the magnetic grid. Even also feel your energies as you begin to stream back within and around your physical body. You find yourself grounding once more. Even the grounding process will be slightly different in the future because your biology is changing. Your energy bodies are changing, and it will be reflected within these crystalline energies. Be open to receive that right now.

As you continue to move through this time upon the earth be open to howsoever your days may change. Be open to the awareness that energy will flow with greater ease. Be open to the greater amount of the light body and crystalline energies that will be a part of your physical makeup. And as you are open to this, allow it to reflect your dreams.

Know that I am ever with you and within you.

Dear Ones,

You are fast approaching the date you have declared as the end point of many aspects of your world. Earth is not going to explode or implode. Nor are you donning white gowns and floating into the ethers. You have selected this date to expedite your movement into the New Age.

What does that mean for you? The New Age is available for all who wish to partake. But part of the New Age being that is you includes selecting the dimension that feels most comfortable. Some of you are comfortable in the 4th dimension. Others will wish to transition into the 5th dimension and beyond.

For the first time in eons, it is acceptable to be different. You have the freedom to be – as does everyone else on earth. Given that freedom, you will select your lifestyle, skill sets and being on the basis of what feels most comfortable. And that comfort zone is created by the role you are playing in this New Age.

Perhaps some of you advanced Lightworkers are disturbed because you have opted for a 4th dimensional life. Others of you are smugly satisfied that you have selected a 7th dimension or higher life. Such feelings are Old Age remnants and have little to do with this New Age. There is no better or worse in your selection process. All roles and all dimensions are equally important. Perhaps you wish to be a star instead of a bit player. You are a star in your role – whatever that role is.

Do you understand the confusion and complexities of everyone shifting from the third to the 7th dimension at the same time? There have to be gradients of development and creation. You selected your dimension comfort zone on the basis of what is required during this transition instead of your ego.

Can you shift to a higher dimension after you have completed the projects you designated for yourself before entering earth in this lifetime? Most certainly. After you have completed your key role, you are free to explore and live within any dimension you wish.

Will those of the 7th or higher dimensions be stars in this transition? Not at all. They will merely have different roles or tasks. Similar to a plumber and engineer. Both use similar problem solving skills – but one has more advanced tools to solve more advanced problems. Perhaps in your 3rd dimension eyes, an engineer is more important than a plumber – that is, until your toilet overflows and your engineer spouse does not know how to repair it.

Is there some quantifiable means to determine how many Lightworkers will be most comfortable in each of the dimensions beyond the 3rd? Not at all. For indeed, you have the freedom to move up or down as you wish. And you will wish to do so once you have completed your core tasks. Please understand that up and down are not necessarily correct terms, but the best descriptors we have to explain the location of the various dimensions at this time.

Some of you are concerned that you will never complete your core tasks and so will be “stuck” in one dimension for the duration of your time on earth. That, of course, is your decision. Some of you will race through your tasks and gleefully move to many dimension comfort zones. Others of you will stay in your current comfort zone. That is your choice and your freedom.

You may even choose to shift from the 6th to the 4th dimension once you have completed your self-assigned tasks. The dimensions are not linear, but somewhat circular. Perhaps you wish to explore a certain feeling only available in the 4th dimension or decide to jump to the 8th dimension – just for the experience – and then return to your comfort zone.

Other than the 1st, 2nd and 3rd dimensions, no dimension is “off-limits” for you Lightworkers. You would not be a Lightworker if you had not completed all the experiences in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd dimensions. There is so much to explore in the dimensions beyond the 3rd, that none of you will wish to return to those experiences. Just as you have no need to return to kindergarten – even though you loved the experience – once you completed your high school education.

You will not leave earth. You will merely expand earth and the experiences of all entities on earth. And so it will be for you who will live forevermore beyond the 3rd dimension; and those who opt to hold some 3rd dimension energies on earth.

Why would the Universes help beings program a 3rd dimension life in this New Age? Just think of the excitement and emotional range required of those who cannot relate to or interact well with those beyond the 3rd dimension. Those who remain of the 3rd dimension are extremely courageous beings. As you are all. This lifetime is not for the meek of heart.

You finally have your full range of dimensional choices – from the 4th to the highest possible. Each of you has elected a comfort zone because of your role in this wondrous transition. Once you have completed that role – and you decide when you have done so – you are free to play in all dimensions from the 4th and beyond.

Such freedom is exciting in terms of exploring various dimensions – and being exposed to the skill sets and appearances of those who are exploring different dimensions.

Determine your comfort dimension by asking yourself what it is. Explore that dimension with joy and freedom. And when you are tired of that dimension – which will happen once you have completed your transition role – explore another and another and another. Play to your heart’s content with freedom and joy. So be it. Amen.

We often come across all kinds of spiritual expressions denoting soul connections, twin souls, complementary souls, soul mates… There are thousands of explanations out there; so let's have a look at what it all means.

The spiritual world has a specifically determined spiritual hierarchy, which can roughly be divided into three levels. The first level is the astral world, which is the lowest level in the spiritual hierarchy and is intended for emotional transformation. The second is the mental level, which is intended for mental transformation, and the third and highest level is the causal level, which is intended for spiritual transformation. All souls based in the three levels can be referred to as earthly souls, because they are the souls which incarnate in our physical bodies. The souls exist within their own spiritual hierarchies in large groups of several thousand or ten thousand souls, which together form an integral whole. All souls complement each other in all areas of their existence and activity.

When it is time for a soul from a certain group to incarnate in a human body, its incarnation takes place during childbirth when the soul enters the body of a newborn baby at its first breath, thus creating a new beginning of the body-spirit symbiosis. The rest of the souls in the group of the newly incarnated soul will form the spiritual guidance of that person, and in that way the friendship, cooperation and complementation between the souls from the group will continue. This means that when we want to connect with the spiritual world, we should turn to our spiritual guidance which consists of souls in our related group, who will do everything in their power to make our lives on Earth easier.

When two people with souls from the same spiritual group meet in the physical life, they are called soul mates, because the two souls are friends from the spiritual world. When two such persons meet in this life as partners, it is highly likely that they will cooperate and complement each other their whole lives. These connections enable strong foundations for coexistence, because such souls strive for common evolution, complementing, cooperation… And the two persons are constantly drawn together, to a common path, towards common goals. So these are soul mates.

Complementary souls are something different. This is an expression describing the encounter, existence, coexistence… of two people with souls which don’t originate in the same spiritual group, but carry such energy that they can give each other everything they need, cooperate with and complement each other, either for a certain period of time or their whole lives. So these souls are not related by origin, but complement each other in the purpose of their activity.

Every soul has an inner core. It is a very important part of a soul, physically it is located in the lower part of a soul, and when a soul is in a body, the core is located in the heart chakra. When a person dies, the soul passes from the physical body home into the spiritual world with the person’s last breath, and that is when our inner consciousness turns inwards, into the awareness of our soul, and as such presents the basis for the following lives. All inner consciousness of each life represents part of our soul’s core, where all records connected to us and our soul are stored. The inner core is therefore the record of our existence which also personifies all spiritual hierarchy within ourselves. Since all lives complement, upgrade and cooperate with one another, the inner core represents the record according to which God determines the next life of a soul, and defines the place and form of the next incarnation. A soul cannot choose its next life itself, because it doesn’t have the insight into the overall strategy for the evolution of life on Earth. God takes care of the balance and perfection of the whole universe, and as a small part of this perfection, we influence with our lives on our own micro-level the evolution of the whole humanity, and with our inner core we contribute to the system of energy balancing in all the areas where we fill in a missing piece in our self-evolution.

It happens, however, that during the personal development of souls many lives overlap. If, for example, two persons with souls from different spiritual levels live together as partners for three to four consecutive lives, they eventually form a common inner core, because after death their consciousness will have turned into the souls’ core, which will continue to connect them in the following lives. The records of their souls contain many common records, and from one life to the next, the number of common records keeps increasing, making the two souls more and more connected in each life. This means that when two people who have souls with a common core meet, the inner core literally draws them together, and they become inseparable partners.

When two soul mates form a common core and live at least a few consecutive lives together as partners, their common inner core becomes the base for their next life, because it receives God’s dedication. From the common core a new soul is born, which is then incarnated in two bodies, meaning that the soul is split into two parts, representing a twin soul in all following incarnations. The soul enters the bodies of two people; when the first person is born, the whole soul enters into their body, and when the second person is born, a part of the soul transfers from the first person into the body of the second one, thus representing an inseparable connection in life itself. A twin soul has a consciousness of oneness, and strives for coexistence and oneness in the physical life as well.

High Council of Orion Ascension Channeling MOVING INTO YOUR HEART “Greetings Dear Ones. We are the High Council of Orion. Today we continue our journey towards the date, December 21, 2012. And what we want to ask you is, “What you doing on December 22nd? and 23rd? and 27th? and how about January 10, 2013?” For there are many of you out there who are waiting for this date as if your whole life is riding on the date, as if from one moment to the next your life will change in all the ways you’d wildly dreamed of. Again we say, as we’ve said before, this is still looking for an external solution to your human condition. Again we say, that regardless of what's going on on the outside, even if it's a huge spiritual event such as Ascension, it's all about you on the inside. What we ask you to do is look beyond the magical date that’s been dangling out there in front of you all. Look at December 22. Look at your New Year's Eve celebration between 2012 & 2013. What is March of 2013 look like for you? Plan ahead and as you do so ask yourself · What you can do for yourself? · What can you do to bring yourself closer to that space where Oneness reigns on the planet? · What can you do to heal your wounds, to open your heart to allow the expansion of your experience to go beyond your five-sensory, third-dimensional experience? Look within for the answers. All the answers are there and the beautiful thing is they're guided by your Soul on your journey. There's no better place to get information, answers and solutions than within yourself. For you are the unique being of light, who is you in this lifetime. As you are out there listening to who is currently saying what about “What might happen to the planet”, “What might happen to the people!” Use your inner discernment to decide if you feel in alignment with that or not. For the truth is that there is no “ultimate truth” in this that applies to everyone. Everyone’s Soul is on their unique path and so a perfect solution for one person, guided by their Soul, is not necessarily the same perfect solution or point of view for you. We are going to ask you something wildly crazy now, not from a dispassionate point of view, not from an uncaring point of view. What we ask you to do is be in your heart and not worry about everyone else! Let us explain what that means. There are many on the planet right now who say: “What about my husband? What about my wife and my children? What about my brother or sister? Wow, they don't believe in Ascension. They don't even know anything about it and they’re going to be left behind! Is my dog coming with me? Will my cats be with me? I can't Ascend without them!” What we would like to point out is, those comments and thoughts, while they come from a loving place that you want your loved ones to move along with you, (assuming you're Ascending, whatever Ascending means) It is casting lots of judgment, isn’t it? In a sense, it's saying, “Well, I know I'm going and they’re not”. What it's doing is not allowing their Soul at that beautiful core level to move them through their human experience exactly the way it has designed it to. As we’ve said previously, what we ask you to do is instead of worrying about those around you who you have decided are not in the “right place or space” for this process of ascension, please hold the space of the beauty and intelligence of their Soul to be guiding and directing them from a place of their inner truth. The best place you can hold for anyone in your life is non-judgment and heart-centered peace and trust. Trusting their soul to be guiding their lives as you are learning to trust your Soul to guide your life. In the meantime not holding that judgmental place, as if you have the crystal ball into their Soul, knowing that they're making the wrong decisions. Because what we put forth is that all of their decisions are right and perfect for them in their uniqueness, as the beautiful being of light whose chosen to have the human experience they’re having. What we would like to offer up to you is by you moving into that heart-centered space of trusting their Soul to guide their life, trusting your Soul to guide your life, there’s less constriction, there’s more openness, and it allows greater potential and possibility for all involved. For when there is judgment there is construction, and construction limits the expansion of energies. So if you can find that place in your heart to trust your Soul, and find a space in your heart also to lovingly look at those around you, and trusting their Soul, you create an openness of energy that allows for more for everyone in that situation. The energies of expansion and openness come from this place of Soul-centered and Heart-Centered allowing. We ask you today to bless those around you. Stay heart-centered, as much as you can. If you find yourself not experiencing life from your heart, take that moment to breathe and drop your energies down into your heart. If you find yourself judging somebody else's behavior and thinking “Oh, they’re not ascending! That's not Ascension behavior!” Take yourself back down into your heart instead of your head, and even say out loud to yourself, “I trust their Soul to be guiding them in just the right way that my Soul is guiding me.” And breathe into that and feel the release of any constriction, and know that as you do that you are easing the energetic flow around you, and you are allowing more for them as well. Isn’t that beautiful? The greatest way you can assist those around you is to loosen the constriction of your judgment and your need for them to be at a certain place, in a certain way, as you feel is appropriate. Be blessed Beautiful Beings of Light. We are the High Council

The 5th Dimension is not a location, it’s a Creation.

By Inelia Benz – November 26, 2012

http://ascension101.com/

We create our own reality. This is something that has been taught for thousands of years, and a well-kept secret in Western society for as many years. It is also the one biggest piece of information that the “powers that were” are trying to stop from reaching the sleeping masses.

The reason that this knowledge is being kept secret is that when a person is asleep (spiritually unawakened), they can be lead to create someone else’s reality by the use of fear, persuasion, and created illusions of reality that are sold so hard, it’s hard to think they are not real.

But when we think about the 5th Dimension, or any other higher dimension, we often forget that the same applies.

In more subtle dimensions, core material is there as a more subtle physicality, but what happens there, what we experience, or even entering that less dense reality, is our own creation. In order to enter a more subtle and pliable dimension, we need the awareness and capacity to allow ourselves to be and create that less dense reality. We do that by becoming less “dense” ourselves (no pun intended).

Due to the lesser solidity of the 5th Dimension (or 4th, or 12th and everything in between), those who make it part of their environment are more aware of their own nature, and the nature of their reality. We are “able to do” much better than on the 3D solidity.

In the more subtle dimensions, in order to “use” another person’s power, we need their conscious agreement. The reason is that in those dimensions there is very little unconsciousness left. And what is left is not easily used by others.
We create the 5th Dimension.

Yes, all physical reality is multidimensional and an illusion, but we create them to have an experience of singular individuality. They exist in the same “location”, which is infinite. But at the same time, we choose to be aware of only a tiny little spectrum of that all encompassing “reality”. That tiny spectrum dictates what we experience as “real”.

The difference between the 3rd, 4th and 5th dimensions are ones of empowerment, subtlety of solid matter, and capacity to do.

Therefore, what we experience in the subtler dimensions is what we choose to experience there. They don’t “exist” until we create and move our awareness into that space.

There are no dimensions in Oneness, because there is no singular construct of individuality with “other”, whether “other person” or “environment”.

From a standpoint of Oneness, the difference between the 3rd and the 5th dimensions are infinitely small and insignificant. But from our standpoint, and awareness, there could not be two more different experiences of physical existence.

And, the most important point, these are not dimensions we move into, but actively create moment by moment by our raising of our personal vibration, raising the vibration of the planet, and being fully aware of our intention and energy behind all our communications with other and self. It’s a personal process of creation.

How do we get to that point of conscious creation? We raise our personal vibration, we raise our environmental vibration, we embody the new Paradigm. How do we do it? Find the tools that resonate with you. There are thousands of them out there.

If what I am saying resonates with you, see what you can use at the Ascension101.com Tools section. There are tools for you, the planet, the human collective and the entire matrix. The free content at our website has been accessed by over 1,600,000 individuals, who have accessed the pages 3,362,410 times. These individuals will often learn the tools, then teach them to others.

Word of mouth is the number one path with which these individuals have found the ascension101 website. A person will share what works for him or her.

The site will be around until 2017, at which point it will no longer be necessary (if we do this right) because we will have reached a critical mass of empowered individuals, shifting the entire species into knowing all these tools and capacities without having to do a course, using tools, listening to an interview, or reading an article whether in ascension101 or other location.

What is left to do after we raise our own vibration, the planet’s vibration and create the 5th dimension?

Well, that is up to you. My role is not that of creator, it is of inspiring you to be self-empowered, taking back your own authority, being the sovereign of your personal reality, showing you that you have the tools, capacity and abilities at your disposal, so that no one else can ever take away your power without your conscious consent again. It is your role to create the new Paradigm, the 5th Dimension, or whatever other name you might know that experience in subtle physical reality as. When do you start it? I say, start NOW!

YOU are the creator. Start creating that new reality right now. It is not a location to arrive at, it is something YOU create today by raising your own vibration and deciding what you want to create.

My name is Inelia Benz, and I am here to raise the vibrational level of the planet. What are you here for?

So, beloved ones, let us now gather our energies as we guide you through the dimensional portals, through the energy and into the center of this Ascension Wave therefore, please straighten your spine, draw your shoulders slightly backwards opening your heart chakra. Take a deep breath in through your nose, exhaling through your mouth, take another deep breath in exhaling through your mouth and relaxing your body.

Imagine a powerful gold and red flame of energy running up and down your spinal column. This is your life-force; the empowering energy that has always existed within you. This energy becomes more tangible now and you become more conscious of it because many veils have fallen and many outdated beliefs, attitudes and perceptions have been released. You have already acknowledged aspects of yourself that you never knew existed, and this was not such a long time ago.

I want you now to take a moment to give thanks for every challenge you have experienced, for every tear you have shed, for every moment of woe, of grief and sadness. Give thanks for every dark night of the soul you have endured, for it is all of these experiences that have made the cracks in the walls of defense and burnt through the veils of illusion and broken down the constructs of ignorance and revealed to you your inner wisdom, revealed to you your inner tutor and shown you the higher intelligence of the advanced aspects of your divine self that have guided you, guarded you and gifted you.

The "Earth Walk" is one of the most challenging any soul can choose to undertake. It is the most stringent school of learning and is a place where the soul is stripped bare, left with nothing but the potential to gain everything. Your journey into reclaiming the treasures that exist within love and wisdom and empower you as a spirit and as a being of light is now before you.

Feel your energy as it moves from the dams, along the streams and the rivers and into the lakes, and feel your energy moving into the great oceans, becoming one with the vast body of divine wisdom and love represented by the seas and oceans of your Planet.

Breathe in deeply as these Beings connect their energy field to yours. These marine creatures hold within their energy signatures a vibration so pure, so pristine, that it is able to penetrate the densest human ego motivated and base, ignorant and dark part of self. Feel these energies penetrating this part of you, and you find now that you become suspended within the water surrounded by these energies, which amplify the presence of light existing within you.

These energy pulsations penetrate all the alternate and parallel aspects of yourself, the most dark part of yourself, and the most evil deed you have ever committed in any of your life experiences is now penetrated by this pristine energy of pure unconditional love, light, wisdom and intelligence.

Lord Poseidon enters this field of energy and hovers in front of you and twelve Mermaids
accompany him. These beings also begin to emanate sound vibrations that can only be perceived through the body of water, which opens the emotional body inside of you and allows the dark aspects of yourself to be touched and penetrated by this love.

One hundred and eleven Seahorses begin dancing around you. Their dance creates another beautiful energy pattern, which is a system of communication being given to them by your Monad.

This is the first time this pattern is being encoded into your energy field and allows your emotional body to move beyond the paradigms of the old world; specifically the Piscean Age, and as this fluid body of yours steps into this safe place of knowing that you are being motivated by this part of you that is one with God/Goddess, a wall of defense falls away. As this wall drops you are not left fragile and vulnerable, you are left strong, empowered, revitalized, re-energized and reconnected with this powerful part of you -- your Monad.

Take a deep breath in exhaling fully.
Now notice that deep in the depths of this water a light begins to emerge; a golden light, and the marine creatures around you begin to energetically pull you into the depths of the water, Lord Poseidon and the Mermaids following you and the Seahorses still moving around you. As you are taken into the depths you move deeper and deeper into the realms of your most intelligent self, into the depths of love that exist beyond the human lower-ego, beyond the human personality and identity, beyond the human nature and into the sacred energy of you; that which exists beyond human form. You now enter a world of exquisite light, a world so filled with the most profound......

This is the first of them all, it’s taking me a long time to write, as the research to it is rather a lot.  I hope you all enjoy this.  This is just how I look at the deeper meaning of many things.  Always look further than what is seen.

Although the Zodiac is an unending wheel, Aries is often referred to as first in line in this herd of astrological creatures.  As a fire sign, it is one of the four cardinal signs representing action (Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn) and is ruled by the planet Mars. This is because the sign is associated with the vernal equinox and the seasonal start of the year when everything begins to grow again.  Aries represents the seed of life, potential and possibilities.

Mars

It is the Ruling planet of Aries, before the discovery of Pluto; Mars was also considered the ruler of Scorpio.  Mars was the violent Roman God of War.  The planet Mars orbits the sun in 687 days.  Astrologically, it is associated with masculinity, confidence, ego, energy, passion, drive, aggression, sexuality, strength, ambition and competition.  Its energy can be constructive or destructive so it is important to harness its forces for good.  Stamina, ambition and achievement can be its positive expressions.

The Magic Square of Mars

Magic squares work by enclosing or trapping an entity or power, by surrounding it with a collection of numbers in a particular relationship.  Some magic squares are made up of symbols of planets, metals or magic words.  The numerals and numbers that make up the name of God are believed to be especially powerful.  One Magic square is made up of the Latin sentence Sator arepo Tenet opera rotas, meaning “The sower at his plough controls the work”.  In magical squares where the number on vertical and horizontal lines always adds up to the same number, the result is called a “constant”.

Fire

Fire is known as light, it illuminates the darkness, it is a symbol of Hope, yet it also is a destructive force.  Dragons breathe fire, their fire is very destructive, yet they use it very sparingly.   Fire is one of the four main elements in elemental magic, fire, air, water, earth.  Fire is always used on the altar, for rituals and offerings, making it a very powerful symbol.  In Alchemy Fire is the substance that is used in near all processes, to purify, boil, fuse, distil or melt.  For the Alchemist and others, the four aspects of man is, Fire – is the spirit, water – is the soul, Air – is the soul, and earth is the mind.   In Sacred Geometry, fire is also seen as a six-edged Tetrahedron, its pyramid shape appropriately flame-like.

“Just as a candle can’t burn without fire, men cannot live without a spiritual life.”  The Buddha.

Fire like more of the other four-basic elements, has the power to create and the power to destroy.  Symbolically, fire is represented by the upright triangle, the most basic man made representation of which is, the pyramid, whose name comes from the Greek word for fire.  In the natural world, the most obvious form is of the Holy Mountain, the mound of earth that rose up out of the primal waters.  Fire is symbolic, of the spirit and of life itself.  We speak of the “Spark of Life” as though it were a form of fire.  Eternal flames used in temples and churches of all denominations, as well the Olympic torch, symbolize eternal life.  In the Acts of Apostles the Holy Spirit is described as coming down among Christ’s disciples in the form of tongues like flames of fire.”  The Phoenix a fire bird is born again from the ashes of its own fire.  As a purifying force, fire is the preferred method of disposal of bodies in many religions.  Flames and Smoke not only carry the spirit towards the Heavens, but cleanse the body, like that of a Phoenix, by destruction.  For the same reason, fires were used as a form of sacrifice and were a perfect way to make an offering to the Gods.  The ashes or residue from that fire, are rich in symbolic as well.  They signify man’s return to the dust from which his material body is made.   The vibhit, the ashes made from cow dung burned in the sacred fire (or homa), they are used to smear tilaka (sacred symbols of Godly allegiance) onto the forehead and bodies of Hindu ascetics to show that they have renounced the attractions of the material world in favour of the spiritual world.

The purifying mature of fire was used as a sort of magical charm by the Celts during the time of Beltane – the “Beltane fires” – on May 1.  On this day, the cattle were driven between 2 huge bonfires in the hope that this would protect them from disease.  Later, the Great Fire of London not only destroyed much of the city, but at the same time purged it of the horrors of the plague.  We may be baptized in water, but we also speak of a “baptism of fire.”  This implies a difficult ordeal of initiation that happens speedily and effectively, leading to enlightenment after purification.  In Sanskrit, the word for “pure” and “fire” are the same.

There’s a Fulani saying about fire and water that neatly encompasses their relationship one to another.  “Fire comes from Heaven, because it goes up.  Water comes from Earth, because it comes down as rain.”  Whereas water is as still and clear as a mirror, the nature of fires lies in its constant movement, never stopping for a moment until it runs out of fuel.

Fire is also closely linked to passion and sexual energy.  When man first discovered how to make fire, he achieved this using an up and down rubbing motion whose friction made the first spark.  The sexual symbolism of this practice is obvious.  Flames made in this way are seen as either demonic or divine, and there’s primitive belief that fire is somehow gathered inside the genitals of a sorceress.  The erect phallus is a symbol of fire.

The unpredictable nature of the active volcano makes it particularly alive and spirited.  Although the volcano share much of the symbolism of the mountain, the crater in the centre vomit forth its bubbling rivers of fire and molten lava, which lend it further dimension, that of the Goddess who regenerates the souls of the dead in her magical cauldron.  Pele the Polynesian/Hawaiian Fire Goddess, is still worshiped at the Kilaurea volcano in Hawaii.

Head and face

The Head and heart operate in tandem as the logical and the emotional aspects of the body as a sacred map.  The head is symbolic of the intellect, the mind, wisdom, reasoned thought, and of a ruling power or the “top” of something – for example, the Head of State.  Because of its spherical shape the head is also linked to the Universe.  To bow the head before someone is to submit to them, to nod the head indicates assent (at least in the West)

The Head and the face are the most easily identifiable parts of the body, and so were considered to be a great trophy in more war-like times.  The head, removed from the body, means instant death.  For a warrior to return with the actual head of his enemy meant that he also somehow acquired the potency of that enemy, the head was a status symbol of war and would sometimes be preserved in oil so that there would be no doubt as to both the identity of its owner and the certainty that he was dead.  In the same way, the head of an animal is considered to the most valuable trophy for a hunter, a gross display of man’s domination over the animal kingdom, and the more savage the animal the more kudos is accorded its killer.

However in myth, not all decapitated heads were rendered lifeless.  This is in accord with the ancient notion that the head contains the real seat of the soul, the essence of the person and of life itself.  It follows, then, that these disembodied heads carried great wisdom and therefore could act as oracles.  In the Celtic tale of Bran the Blessed, Bran is decapitated but his head continues to be able to talk lucidly, and tells his people that he needs to be buried at the White Hill in London, so long as the head remains there then Britain will be protected from invasions.  The White Hill is now called Tower Hill.  The Norse God Odin is said to have derived much of his wisdom from the oracle head of an earlier deity called Mimir.

To sever the Head from the body was to separate the physical from the spiritual, which also bring death.  At knighting ceremonies the sword blade touching each shoulder is a reminder of this idea, and also a show of great honour.  The Hindu Goddess Kali is easily identified by her necklace of several heads, which are said to be source of her wisdom.  They also represent the letters of the alphabet and comprise the “heads” of her sacred rosary or “japamala”.

In the midst of battle it was the best strategy always to aim attack to the head of the army or leader you are facing, as usually when the head is “cut off” the body of the resisting army quickly crumbles under the pressure of the enemy.  This is why geishas in the Japanese culture were so affective, as many times, they were used to take out the head, in order for the enemy to defeat the clan they wanted to.

Red

It symbolises Vitality and life-force; fire, the Sun, the South; blood; good luck and prosperity; power and authority; masculine energy; war and anger; passion, energy, sexuality.   Red is the sign of a warrior or martyr, indicating courage, military strength and generosity.

It is one of the 3 primary colours, bright red pops out of whatever environment it happens to be in and grabs the attention more than any other colour.  It is also the first actual colour that is seen by babies, because of its lower vibrational frequency, than the other colours in the visible spectrum, it is associated with the base chakra and symbolizes passion, sexuality, fertility and animal urges.  Red-light districts are so called because of the dim red shades of the prostitute’s quarters.

Red is also the colour of blood, which means that it is associated with the life-force and vitality.  Hunters that make their first kill are smeared with the blood of their kill, which show empathy towards the spirit of the animal and also initiated the hunter into the act of becoming a man.  It is also the colour of the sun and the Southern direction.  The word “magic” in German, is directly linked to the word “red ochre”.  A recent archaeological discovery provided evidence of their reverence in which the colour was held by early man.  Lumps of red ochre, as well as tools stained with the substance were found in early graves in an Israeli cave, indicating its importance as a symbol of vitality, life and resurrection.  They also wore it around their necks in leather pouches to ward off evil spirits.

Pure colours used to be very difficult and expensive to produce and so red cloth was used by people in positions of power, such as monarch and the clergy.  Byzantine emperors were dressed from head to foot in red.  In Rome, red was the colour of the nobles and generals, and the Holy Roman Church still dresses in cardinals in pure, bright cardinal red/  To roll out the red carpet for someone is to honour their presence.

Red is the colour of protection and had been viewed as such for at least the last 2000 years Amulets made of rubies or garnets were far more valuable than any other kind, able to make the wearer invincible.  Mars is also known as the red planet due to its Iron Oxide in the soil that gives it a red appearance that is clearly visible to the naked eye.  This colour is partially responsible for its association with War and warriors.  In India and China, red is the traditional colour of weddings.  Indian brides wear saris of red or pink.  In China the happy couple will be surrounded by a sea of red, clothing, souvenirs and gifts.  Even the home of the bride and the groom are decorated with red banners and ribbons, Roman brides, too favoured red for weddings, which was called “flammeum”.  This tradition is shared by Modern Greek brides.

In Ancient Egypt red was synonymous with evil, because it was the colour of the God Seth, who haunted the arid desert places, the personification of destruction, Seth was called the “Red God”, and an Egyptian charm of the goes like this”

“O Isis, deliver me from the hands of bad, evil, red things!”

In Christian symbolism the Devil is sometimes depicted as a red creature.  Like Seth, he also has a liking for scorched placed.  In alchemy the Red Stone is mercuric sulphide, a component of sulphur and mercury that is also called vermilion.  The creation of Vermilion was a very important primary stage in the process of making the Philosophers Stone, which in itself disguised as the Red Lion, since this elusive substance was characterized by turning red in its final stage.

Diamond

The Diamond is the hardest known natural occurring mineral.  The name derives from the ancient Creek Adamas, meaning “invincible’, Untameable” and “hard”.  It gives us the word “adamant” or “adamantine”, which is also used as a term of reference to describe the brilliance of the stone.   Its hardness and ability to cut are important to Tibetan Buddhists.  These Attributes are given to the vajra, or “diamond thunderbolt”, the symbol of immutable and all-conquering spiritual enlightenment.  During the Renaissance, it represented equanimity, courage, freedom from fear, integrity and faith.  The bright light of the diamond exposes anything negative in need of transformation.  One of the stones on the breastplate of the High Priest of the Temple in Jerusalem was said to shine brilliantly in the presence of truth and innocence, the diamond is not only tough, but extremely beautiful and relatively rare, qualities which make it one of the most costly precious stones.  Traditionally it is the stone used in engagement rings as a symbol of betrothal, although the notion that an eager suitor should be obligated to spend a month’s salary on the ring for his future wife is nothing more than a cynical ruse, invented relatively recently by a leading diamond house to persuade people to spend their money.

Diamond became the symbol of love and commitment, although its use in rings was originally protective talisman.  Knights and warriors like to set diamonds into their sword hilts and shields for this reason, but these diamonds did not sparkle in the way we recognise them today, they remained un-polished.  During the time of Queen Elizabeth I “scribing rings” were in fashion.  These rings with sharp pointed diamonds were used to scribe messages on windows, usually little love letters or secret messages (I don’t know how writing on a window keep that message secret, but hey that’s royalty for you).  Diamonds come in different shades of subtitle colour, like yellow, blue, pink, white, green orange and even black.  However, the rare red diamond which has a red flash within it is held by Indians to be symbolic of disaster, and signified a swift death for its wearer, because of the fire that flashes inside a well cut and polished diamond, the stone is associated with thunder and lightning.  Diamonds are believed to absorb both good and bad energy and people who use gemstones for healing purposes need to be very careful not to upset the delicate balance of the stone.  In Persia, diamonds were viewed as suspicious stones, probably for this reason.  Some notorious diamonds – no doubt the object of much envy, greed and sometimes even bloodshed (where the term blood diamonds originate from) – have curses attached to them and believed to be “unlucky” in the hands of their owners.

One of the most notorious cursed gems is the Hope Diamond.  The stone seems to have left a trail of ruined lives and devastation in its wake.  The bad fortune surrounding the stone started when it was stolen from the forehead of the statue of the Goddess Sita in India.  Some believe that the malice surrounding the stone is because the Goddess cursed everyone who touched it.  The original thief was reputed to have been torn apart by wild dogs.  The diamond passed through the hands of Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI, both of whom were beheaded.  It was eventually purchased by a wealthy banker, Philip Hop, and then inherited by his nephew Thomas, who lost his entire fortune shortly thereafter.  Next it was bought by Ambul Hamid, a Sultan of Turkey, who lost his title and was forced to sell the diamond.  It was bought by Mrs Edward Maclean, wife of an American newspaper magnate.  She lost both her fortune and her only son, who was killed in an accident.

The Koh-i-Noor diamond – whose name means “mountain of light” at one time, belonged to Shah Jahan, who built the Taj Mahal for his wife, Mumtaz.  It was believed that whoever owned the diamond would rule the world.  By the time it was presented to Queen Victoria in 1850 it had a reputation of bringing ill luck to any male owner.  Queen Victoria took this superstition very seriously and decreed that ladies alone should wear the diamond, since then it has only been set into crowns of female members of the royal family.

Bloodstone

Bloodstone is a green Jasper dotted with bright red spots of iron oxide.  Medieval Christians carved scenes of the lives of the martyrs in bloodstone, which they called the “martyrs stone”.  According to the Christian legend, the bloodstone was first formed then drops of Christ’s blood fell and stained the Jasper stones at the foot of the cross.  In ancient times it was used as an oracle stone, providing guidance to those who could hear its message.  It is said to calm the heart and reduce irritability and aggressiveness.  Bloodstones also heighten intuition and creativity.

Also called the Heliotrope, from the Greek words of “Sun” and “to turn”, the blood stone can refer to many reddish stones but generally refers to green Jasper with red markings or flecks.  Ancient Egyptians believed that the stone would help with menstrual problems and called it the “blood of Isis”.  Christian statuary often features bloodstone carved into the shape of the head of Christ, artfully making the red flecks appear to be the blood pouring form the wounds made by the crown of thorns.

Healers and physicians called the stone lapis sanguinities and it was used primarily to alleviate any blood-related illness.  It was used to stance bleeding, to clean the blood, and to clear bloodshot eyes.  It aided circulation when dipped in cold water and placed on the body, and it could cure haemorrhoids too.  The bloodstone’s connection with the sun made it the subject of a form of scrying, whereby the stone was placed in a bowl of water, where it served as a symbolic representation of a solar eclipse, the passage of the Moon across the face of the sun showed up on the immense stone.

One of the more curious myths about the bloodstone is that, like its namesake the heliotrope flower, it was said to confer invisibility to anyone lucky enough to own it.  This was achieved by the bloodstone dazzling the eyes of the beholder, in which case, it is presumed, they would be able to see nothing at all.  Blood stones were often folded into sword blades when the metal was still red hot.  It was said to give the sword the power to always find its mark. And protect the wielder from any harm during battle.

Iron

It may be one of the cheapest and most abundant of all metals, but iron has great relevance in both symbolism and the practical application of magic.  Iron is one of the primary constituents of Blood and the metal and the liquid smell similar, therefor iron has been perceived to be the blood or life force of the earth itself, but it is not only the Earth which has a high iron content, since early iron that was used by man originated largely from meteors. 

Iron is represented by the letters Fe, and is represented by the planet Mars, not only because of its colour, but because of the strength and hardness, and the fire needed to alter its shape.  The most abundant element on earth, it makes up about 5% of the earth’s crust and 35 % of its core.  It symbolizes brute-like strength, as well as durability, hardness and flexibility.  For the Greek poet Hesiod, writing C700BCE, iron stood for materialism, force and the primitive and unconscious mind.  According to Plato (c. 428 – 348 BCE), iron came from the underworld and needed to be contained and kept separate from everyday life.  The Druids avoided the use of iron implements in their sacred rituals and ceremonies.  In the culture iron is considered a dark, base metal, in comparison to the bright metals of copper and bronze that are thought to be noble.  The Dogon people of Mali, iron represents the Lord of Darkness, the evil demiurge Yurugu, the jackal god who rules divination, barrenness, drought and death.  However, the all-powerful Lord of Heaven, the Demiurge Nommo, created the blacksmith who could make Yuruhu’s iron his servant, by fashioning it into farm tools and hunting weapons.  In Mali, the blacksmith is often also the village fortune teller.  The gift of the blacksmithing – working with iron – was said to have been given by the Gods themselves.

In Tibet this “sky iron” is used for making the singing bowls, the vibrational frequency of which is believed to attract good spirits and heal both body and soul.  It had a reputation of being a repellent to witches and ghosts and other malevolent entities.  Numerous folktales have the supernatural creatures being rendered powerless by being struck by iron.  When Iron appears in the form of the horseshoe, its power is increased, because the horseshoe is a symbol of the protective Goddess, the Crescent moon, the chalice or the yoni.

Anything which grows in the earth must therefore by default contain some of this spirit, especially corn, since it was such an important crop.  To appease the spirit, people would take a bite at a piece of iron, thereby rendering the spirit harmless.  For Australian Aborigines, iron is also considered a magical, sacred material, and is used in rites and ceremonies along with blood, the two are interchangeable. 

Thistle

The Scottish thistle, a thorny beautiful flowering plant, is an ancient Celtic symbol of pain and suffering, as well as of noble character and birth.  King James V of Scotland *1512 – 1542) instituted the order of the Thistle, one of the most ancient British orders, in 1540.  The motto of the order was Nemo me impune lacessit (‘No one provokes me with impunity)  In 1262, when the Danes tried to attack Scotland at night, one of the barefoot soldiers yelled in pain as he stepped on a prickly thistle, thus alerting the Scots to the Danish invasion.  The spikiness of the thistle gives it a warlike symbolism and this also makes it an emblem of protection.  The power of the thistle breaks curses and malevolent spells.  It has long had a reputation of being able to banish melancholy, perhaps because of its sweet scent, perhaps because of the wine with which the thistle flowers were blended to make the required medicine.  Despite all these positive associations, in the bible the thistle are a symbol of man’s fall from grace.  When Adam and Eve are cast out from the Garden of Eden, they enter a wilderness wherein grow “thorns and thistle”.  However many thistle hold a delicious hidden secret that Adam and Eve might have discovered: the spiny flowers can be cut open to reveal a tasty and nutritious nut.

Acanthus is a thistle like shrub with long flower spikes, generally preferring warm and dry climates.  The large leaf of the acanthus (often up to 12 inches long and just as wide) has been stylized and adapted as a symbol, often appearing as a carving at the tops of architectural columns (the Corinthian style).  The Acanthus is a very resilient plant, and is a symbol of immortality.  Where it is seen on gravestones, this is its secret meaning.

Blackthorn

It is a small, gnarly tree, often grown in hedgerows where its vicious thorns make it a good stock-proof barrier.  These thorns carry a dual symbolism since they can both attack and defend.  The small, bitter fruits, sloes, are inedible but commonly used to flavour gin.  One of the folk names of the blackthorn is the “wishing thorn” The branches were once used as divining rods, although negotiating the thorns must have been a tricky business.  As “wishing rods” the branches were made into wands for ritual use.

The Blackthorn and the hawthorn often appear together and are considered “sisters” the blackthorn providing the “dark” counterpart to the “light” of the other tree.  Its blossoms appear very early, often in early April, before the leaves are on the tree, making it a symbol of fertility.  Despite this, it has a dark reputation, because the spines often poison anyone they touch.  This meant that they can be dangerous weapons in the wrong hands, used negatively by malicious entities, such as witches.  Blackthorn spines were supposed to be used by these malicious women to pierce manikins used in a nasty form of sympathetic magic.  In common with other thorn trees, it has been conjectured that the blackthorn tree was used to make Christ’s crown of thorns.

Hawthorn

The hawthorn, or May tree, is a particularly sacred and holy tree wherever it is found.  In the Celtic Ogham tree alphabet, it represents the letter H, or Huath.  As well as having magical properties, the hawthorn is an incredible useful tree.  When it is cut back to make hedgerows, its thorns become sharp, providing an excellent barrier for sheep and other livestock.  The berries provide food for birds and can be made into syrups, reserves, and wines.  The leaves are nutritious, giving it the nickname of the “bread and cheese” tree.

It is particularly tolerant of other plants growing close to it and so its presence encourages biodiversity.  It is a symbol of protection, not only because of its thorns.  There’s an ancient belief that the tree will protect from fire, too.  Every year a hawthorn “globe” would be woven and brought into the house as insurance against fire damage of any kind.  The following year the globe would be replaced, the old one being burned and scattered on the fields to ensure a healthy harvest.

The white flowers of the hawthorn, which blossom in the late spring (hence name May blossom) have five petals, with the matching sepals looking exactly like a star.  Consequently, as with all members of the rose family to which it belongs, the flower is a natural example of the pentagram.  The hawthorn is symbolic of fertility and sensuality, underlined by the heady, strong almost narcotic scent of its flowers that bloom during the time of Beltane, when the sap rises in both plant and animal life, a natural time for fertility and sexual congress.

Although the hawthorn is symbolic of frivolity and mirth, there’s a legend which provides contrasting imagery for tree.  Joseph of Arimethea, resting on Wearyal Hill in Glastonbury, leant on his staff and in doing so pushed it into the ground.  The staff sprouted into a thorn tree, and a Christian chapel was built at the site.  Traditionally, this magical and holy tree, the “Glastonbury Thorn” blossoms at Christmas time and a sprig is sent to the Queen every year.  The current tree is a very distant relative of its legendary parent.

Jujube

A tropical tree native to the Sudan, the Jujube grow all over Israel and the middle east, and is one of the most significant sacred trees in this area.  It is also known as the “Christ’s thorn Jujube” because it’s one of the trees that may have provided the crown of thorns worn by Christ.  The tree also holds profound meaning for Muslims since Mohammed had a vision when he was resting close to one.  Often standing in remote places in the desert, the jujube is symbolic of the point beyond which no person may proceed, and even the Angel Gabriel left Mohammed to continue his journey past the Jujube on his own.  As a tree that survives well in arid conditions, the lone Jujube could indeed appear to be standing at the edge of another, unknown world.  Consequently, the tree has a practical use as a border marker.

A muslin story holds that the tree grows in paradise, with each of its leaves bearing the name of as many people who exist on the planet.  This heavenly tree is shaken once a year at sunset, after Ramadan, the leaves that fall signifies those who will die in the coming year.  In Israel, it’s said that when the Jujube is 40 years old, the saints come to sit under it, so anyone cutting down a tree or chopping away branches is destined to be killed by these same saints.  The tree is further sanctified as being chosen by the saints, it’s considered good luck for more ordinary human beings to sit beneath it.  Traditionally lamps are lit in the branches of the tree to signify the brightness brought by the Prophet Mohammed.  Baby boys are given Jujube twigs to hold, so that they may absorb the symbolic sanctity and strength of the tree.

Mustard

The Buddha instructed a woman who came to him distraught at the death of her child to bring him a white mustard seed from every home that had not experienced a death.  Although mustard seed was common in every household, she returned empty-handed.  In this way the Buddha showed her that she was not alone in experiencing death and that it is an inescapable part of life.  The mustard seed therefore symbolises right view, the first element of the eightfold path.

Onion

The Onion is considered to be powerful, both as a symbol and as a useful plant, that there are a cult in Egypt dedicated to its worship and cultivation.  The Onion represents eternity, because of its circle-within-a circle structure.  In the Dharmic religions such as Hundu and Budism, the fact that the layers of the onion can be peeled away, and that it has no central core, makes it similar to the ego.  Eventually there is no barrier to the spirit world and all is One.  The first line of the Onion song by Marvin Gaye reflects this sentiment: “The world is just a great big onion…”

Roman soldiers carried onions, believing that they had the power to ward off diseases.  They were a symbol of protection in another way.  An onion held in the hand, for example, was meant to ward of snakes.  Apparently witches do not like onions.  Keeping onions in the house deter malicious spirits; the onion could be word as a protective charm by those who were unconcerned about their appearance.

Onions roughly chopped and let in a bucket of water to draw makes a great pest repellent.  Spraying the leaves of other plants, to ward of slugs, many beetles and worms.  Sprinkling the left over onion, used for making the tea around the base of the plants also help with the repellent of worm’s, slugs and snails.

There is also a joke that is told: “all men are like onions, you peel them layer by layer and what is left is to cry about…”

Garlic

Garlic was placed by Ancient Greeks on piles of stones at crossroads, as a food offering to the Goddess of the crossroads, Hecate.  A Christian legend relates that when Satan stepped out from the Garden of Eden after the fall of man, garlic sprang up from the spot where he placed his left foot, and an onion from where he placed his right.  In many cultures throughout time, garlic was praised for its medicinal uses – especially in warding off infections and in strengthening immunity.  It is also thought to be a vampire-repellent.

If you cut a whole garlic house in half and look at it, you see that the structure is held together by a core, with many little cloves of garlic attached to it.  This is a powerful representation of unity, of how out system also function in this way.  We are all growing from the chore (source) each our own individual, yet we all are a unity conscious system that functions as one.

The Ram

In Mythology Aries is associated with Theseus and the Minotaur. To the Greeks, Aries was a ram called Krios, Indians called it Mesha, the ram, or Aja, the goat.  For the Persians, it was a lamb called Varak.  To the Babylonians, however, it was Zappu, meaning hair, or Hunga, the worker.  The Golden Fleece that Jason and the Argonauts stole, was said to hold incredible power.  The head was that of a ram, with the spiral like horns.  Also when Abraham was about to sacrifice his son, Izak, God showed him a Ram to replace the sacrifice of his son.  His loyalty to God was rewarded by God sparing his sons life as reward.

The Sheep

The Female sheep was associated with Celtic Goddess Brigit or Brighid and her spring festival Imbolic, meaning ewe’s milk.  Christ carrying a lamb or a sheep on his shoulders symbolizes the soul of the deceased being borne by him into Heaven.  Sheep represent the flock or congregation of Christ, who is known as the Good Shepard.  Christ is also portrayed as the Sacrificial Lamb of God or Agnus Dei.  In the Abrahamic faiths, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses and King David were all shepherds.  In Chinese folklore, because of the way a lamb dances around its mother, it is a symbol of respect and love for parents.  Sheep are key symbols in Fables and Nursery rhymes such as “The Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing” and “Baa Baa Black Sheep”.  In Europa, a black sheep is considered a sign of good luck.  In the English language, calling someone a sheep suggested that they are timid and easily led.

Agnes Dei / Lamb of God are one of the names given to Jesus in the New Testament and used in the Christian tradition to refer to the role of Jesus as a sacrificial lamb atoning for the sins of the world.  The idea of the Lamb of God may have its origins in ancient sacrifices that were constructed during Pass over at the Jewish Temple, in which a pure unblemished lamb was sacrificed, its blood poured out and offered as atonement for sins.  In the same way Christians believe that they can be freed from sin by the blood of Jesus, as the unblemished Lamb of God.

A litany beginning with the words “Lamb of God” is used in the Roman Catholic Mass: Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi miserere nobis… (‘O Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world, has mercy upon us…)  The Lamb of God is a symbol of purity, innocence and renewal.  It is depicted with a halo and a banner with a red cross on a white background, symbolizing resurrection.

Gull /Albatross

For sailors these huge sea birds is said to be reincarnated souls of the dead sailors that has come to give the ship safe passage.  It was also seen as a warning of rough weather ahead.  Killing or harming one of these birds was very bad luck.  Coleridge’s poem “The Ancient Mariner” reinforced this superstition so successfully that even landlubbers know about it.  In the Pacific islands, these birds are commonly believed to be a messenger from the Gods, able to sleep on the wing.  These birds are revered because of their close connection to the Divine, and on Easter Island one of the statues has the beak of an Albatross.

Hawk

The Hawk is known as the messenger from the Gods.  The Hawk is said to be one of the Great Solar Birds that are able to stare directly at the sun without having to squint their eyes to lessen the glare.  To be able to look directly into the sun and not have to look away is symbolic of being able to look directly at an issue and to see what needs to be acknowledged and addresses, for the self and others.

To witness a Hawk in flight, to hear its cry, or to find one of its feathers suggests you are about to receive a sign or a gift from spirit.  Hawk’s cry may indicate a bountiful harvest or an impending time of abundance, while the finding of a feather sometimes portends the birth of a child or a spiritual gift about to awaken.

Hawks are the messengers and always precede some large event either in spiritual or physical life.  It is a guide that will lead you to the next phase of your path.  In the native American culture and in Africa the hawk is seen as a very powerful omen.

The Glyph

The symbol of Aries represents the head and horns of a ram and originates from a cluster of stars that make up the head of the Aries constellation.  This is the kind of short hand symbol that belongs to each of the signs, used by astrologers, for example, when compiling astrological charts.  These squiggles can be interpreted in a number of different ways.  The glyph of Aries distinctly resembles the horns of the ram; horns themselves stand alone as a synonym for lust and sexuality.  However, they can also represent an upward-shooting fountain of energy or even a flame.  Because Aries rules over the face and the head, sometimes the glyph is superimposed over the face of a human figure to show Aries influence.  Again, because it governs the head and the mind, the horns are interpreted as reaching towards the spiritual world, other quality ascribed to Aries.  It is interesting to see how the glyph, a simple sign, can start to qualify many different aspects of the sign itself.

Qualities

Those born under Aries take the initiative in business and in life and perform courageous acts. As we’ve seen, the stellar circle of animals as it exists today was slightly different and the sign that used to occupy the place now taken by Aries was Taurus, and there is a residue of the “bull in a china shop” notion about this position.  The spring equinox is a time when new growth is prodigious, everything fighting to burst out of the ground after the barren winter months.  The unharnessed energy and vitality of the ram or the bull is appropriate.

Ruled by the planet Mars which also rules the God of War, Aries qualities include energy and vitality, determination, stubbornness, impulsiveness.  Aries can also be quick-tempered and aggressively ambitious.  The fire element of Aries is the fire of creation, burning erratically in all directions, and an explosion of flame that can be creative or destructive, depending on how it is applied.  The brute force and impulsion of the Ram epitomizes this sign of the Zodiac.  It has a childlike bluntness, and an honest straightforward approach of life.

YOUR LIGHT IS NEEDED NOW!
by Patricia Cota-Robles

www.eraofpeace.org

Hi Precious Heart,

Your time is at hand! We are in the midst of a momentous event on this planet that each and every one of us have been preparing to participate in for aeons of time. I AM delighted that you are awake, and that you have volunteered to help lift Humanity and all Life evolving on this sweet Earth up the Spiral of Evolution to the next octave of our learning experience.

You may not know on a conscious level all of the details of your lifetimes worth of preparation, but I assure you, your God Self, your I AM Presence, knows exactly how you can be the most effective instrument of God during the unprecedented shift of energy, vibration, and consciousness at hand. You have an important part to play or you would not be in embodiment and receiving this information during this critical time.

Ask your I AM Presence for guidance, then remain in a state of Listening Grace. Respond according to the inner promptings of your heart to the opportunities that are being magnetized into your sphere of awareness. There are myriad events taking place all over the planet during the month of December 2012. See which events resonate in your heart, then make the choice to join physically by attending the events or to join in consciousness by adding your Light from wherever you are on the planet.

When we join together physically or in consciousness, the Company of Heaven has been granted a Cosmic Dispensation to amplify our efforts a thousand times a thousandfold. This gift of Divine Grace will exponentially expand the Light we are capable of adding to the world during this Cosmic Moment. Please do not let this opportunity pass you by.

I AM going to be participating in three events that I would like to invite you to participate in. Please read the following information carefully and see how these events resonate in your heart.

Tomorrow, November 28th, we will experience a very powerful Lunar Eclipse that will expand the Open Heart energy of both Humanity and Mother Earth. This will allow the I AM Presence of every person on Earth to magnetize the patterns of perfection from our newly birthed Renaissance of Divine Love more effectively from the Realms of Cause. This will pave the way for the powerful activities of Light that will occur in December.

For the December 12, 2012 events, 12:12:12, I have the honor of participating in the STAR KNOWLEDGE CONFERENCE at the Carefree Resort in Phoenix, Arizona. That event will take place December 10-13, 2012. For details please click on this link and go directly to the website:

http://www.starknowledgeconference.com

On December 12, 2012, 12:12:12, our Mother God—the Holy Spirit, and the Feminine Aspects of Deity throughout all Creation, will breathe into the Earth’s Crystal Grid System the highest frequencies of God’s Transfiguring Divine Love that Life on this planet is capable of withstanding. Due to the monumental influxes of Light that have occurred over the past several decades, and especially since the Dawn of the New Millennium, this will be the greatest influx of Divine Love Humanity has ever experienced.

For over 500 years, December 12th has been celebrated in Mexico and throughout Central and South America as the Feast Day of the Virgin of Guadalupe. For millions of people this aspect of Mother Mary has symbolized the return of the Divine Feminine, our Mother God. On 12-12-12 our Mother God, and Her exponents representing the Divine Feminine throughout all Creation, will cocreate a Forcefield of Divine Love that will envelop every atomic and subatomic particle and wave of Life on Earth, and all of the spaces in-between the particles and waves of Life. This forcefield will reinforce a multidimensional and multifaceted Womb of Divine Love and a Birth Canal of Divine Love that will assure Earth’s safe passage up the Spiral of Evolution, and the Birth of the New Earth in the Realms of Cause.

The Beings of Light are aware that in most instances this information is beyond the comprehension of our finite minds. But they assure us that the I AM Presence of each and every one of us clearly understands the bigger picture of what is happening on this planet. They said that adding to the Light of the world during this miracle of the Shift of the Ages and the Birth of the New Earth in all her splendor is exactly why we volunteered to embody on Earth at this time.

The events of 12-12-2012 will be the final steps of preparation leading up to the December Solstice and the Birth of the New Earth on 12-21-2012. These two dates reverberate with the master number 11, 1+2+1+2+2+0+1+2=11 and 1+2+2+1+2+0+1+2=11, the numerical frequency of the transformation of the physical into the Divine. Isn’t God fun?

On December 20th, from 7:00-9:00 p.m., we at the New Age Study of Humanity’s Purpose have organized an event that will take place in Tucson, Arizona at Loew’s Ventana Canyon Resort. During this Activity of Light, THE SHIFT OF THE AGES, we will create the safety net for the Cosmic Events that will take place during the December Solstice. This event is FREE and open to the public.

During the Activity of Light on December 20th, we will unite with the Company of Heaven and Lightworkers around the world. Together we will cocreate the sacred space for the greatest influx of Light Humanity and the Earth have ever experienced. We will form a Chalice of Light that will cradle the Earth and serve as a particle accelerator to prepare every man, woman, and child to safely receive the monumental influx of Light that will occur on Earth when we align with the Galactic Core of the Milky Way during the December Solstice.

On December 21-22, 2012, I have been invited to participate in a very powerful event that will take place in Sedona, Arizona. Sedona is a power point along Earth’s Crystal Grid System through which the 5th-Dimensional Crystalline Solar Light from Suns beyond Suns beyond Suns will flow during the December Solstice and the Galactic Alignment. This event is called SEDONA 2012 FESTIVAL. For details please click on this link and go directly to the website:
http://www.thesedonanowagefestival.com

On December 21-22, 2012, the Earth will align with the Galactic Core of the Milky Way. This will open a portal of Light that will extend from the very Heart of our omniscient, omnipresent, omnipotent Father-Mother God—the Cosmic I AM—All That Is, into the Divine Momentum pulsating in the center of the Earth. This influx of Light will flow through God’s all-encompassing Divine Matrix to bless every particle of Life on this planet. This Divine Matrix is the Body of our Father-Mother God within which all Creation lives, moves, breathes, and has its Being. This influx of Light will begin the process that will Birth the New Earth in the Realms of Cause. This will be Earth’s New Beginning. From that moment forth, the patterns of our Planetary Cause of Divine Love and our Renaissance of Divine Love will easily flow into the mental and emotional strata of Earth. Humanity will be able to easily tap into these patterns of perfection and through our thoughts, words, feelings, actions and beliefs we will bring them into manifest form. These patterns contain the viable solutions to every humanly-created malady existing on Earth.

The Birth of the New Earth will accelerate the awakening of even the most recalcitrant souls, thus causing a shift that will take place in the energy, vibration, and consciousness of each and every one of us. This shift will reflect a new level of understanding that all Life is interconnected, interrelated, and interdependent. Humanity en mass will begin to realize that what affects one part of Life affects all Life. From this new awareness people will be inspired to work together to find win-win solutions that will benefit every person and enhance the existence of every facet of Life on Earth. This is monumental! Please be the instrument of God you volunteered to be prior to this embodiment.

Dratzo! We return! At present, we continue in blackout mode. We are busy establishing oversight committees to guide our Earth allies’ organizations that are responsible for promulgating the new financial and monetary systems for your new realm. These committees will remain active only for the first six to nine months after the new systems come into force. The fiat financial systems still holding sway around your world are getting closer to collapse. The overwhelming debt accrued by your dark cabal is impinging more and more on the system’s day-to-day operations. An enormous charade is being perpetrated for public consumption, by referencing only the amount of debt legally allowed to be carried on the books; in fact, this stated amount is about one quarter of the actual total debt. Your global economy is sliding quickly into the next series of crises that are to unravel it forever. Our earthly allies have wisely slid the new system into a position where it can take over when the ‘death fall’ happens. This death fall of your financial system will propel the cabal-controlled governments out of power.

Our primary responsibility is to shepherd all of this toward disclosure and first contact. Our liaison personnel have formulated a complex set of agreements that fits into the basic tenets set up by the nations that signed the Monaco and Paris accords in the spring of 2011. These nations uphold the termination of the Dumbarton Oaks monetary and financial agreements as well as the subsequent pacts established at various conferences since the end of World War II. These latter documents have now been replaced by those drawn up in the last two years by our sacred societies and a number of nations of the world. Several court cases and the existence of gold, silver, and platinum depositories, sufficient to cover the move to a new global hard-currency system, further legitimize these agreements. The primary stumbling block continues to be the major cabal-backed governments. However, these governments are being de-legitimized by a number of international court rulings.

As we mentioned before, your world’s governmental system of nation states is in reality an illegal perpetuation of the illegal modus operandi of the Roman Empire. All the present governments of your world owe their original sovereignty to ‘permission’ granted by the Pope, acting as stand-in for the Emperor of Rome. This de facto form of Roman governance is now ready to accede to a more legitimate, common-law version, in which sovereignty is truly returned to the people (its citizens). This change is already being proclaimed by means of a series of agreements that were recently signed off on by a group consisting of the original chieftains and shamans of your world. These registered changes to your legal governance are now ready to shift the governance of your planet to a whole new level. Many newly appointed officials authorized by these ancestral groups are to take the helm in this new governance and ensure the instituting of the new financial system and the formal disclosure of our benevolent presence in your skies.

Disclosure is vital to what we consider as the best way to introduce ourselves to you. The dark cabal has long portrayed us as some sort of ‘dark invader with a nefarious agenda.’ This is far from the truth! We are here under the auspices of Heaven on a sacred mission of first contact. According to galactic protocol, as we have often told you, you are a society that our Science and Exploration teams deem ‘not yet ready for contact.’ As a result, this mission has presented us with many unique situations which required Heaven to grant us formal dispensations to enable us to push forward. Using these decrees as a guide, we reorganized this mission’s priorities on many occasions but our objectives remained the same. Another non-standard aspect of this mission is the way these goals were to be achieved. Now, finally, we are getting to the point where the fruits of these labors are to manifest. First contact will bring you the means to return you to full consciousness and permit you to reunite with your spiritual and space families, with all the wonders of new knowledge and new adventures that that entails.

Namaste! We are your Ascended Masters! Many events continue to make good progress. We are in constant contact with our Agarthan brothers as they coordinate the changes which are scheduled to take place shortly. Our Inner Earth brethren inform us that the many complex moves required to complete the formal alteration of your reality are still on schedule. We are watching as your present governmental systems begin an operation that is the forerunner of the official transfer of governance. These preliminary moves are taking place according to a series of international legal decisions governing the reasons for the changes. On the financial front, your present systems are in the process of a systemic failure, which for some time now has been quite evident to the experts who follow these trends closely. We are excited that the precursors of your new reality are manifesting, bearing in mind that these initial changes are merely the beginnings of what is, quite soon, to transform this dark realm.

Everywhere the Light is working miracles on our behalf and we graciously give blessings for this each day! Nevertheless, the dark is maintaining the illusion that nothing is changing, which is how they have operated for the past 13 millennia. We understand the way that change comes suddenly into being, and the alterations just ahead will happen in this manner. Our associates report that the dark is grudgingly permitting the prerequisites of this reality shift to go forward, thus precipitating the key moment when this multitude of changes actually happens. We are in joy that our space and spiritual families are overseeing these changes, with groups specifically assigned to manifest the changes regardless of what final shenanigans are attempted by the dark! The Creator and the divine plan have decreed this move to the Light and it shall indeed come to pass. Each of you has been blessed and is on a divine highway to full consciousness.

As the Light increases in intensity across your world, so the presence of our space brethren can become more marked. The craft you see in the night and daytime skies are here to be the heralds of this divine change. We too are ready to introduce ourselves to you, and our sacred associates are prepared to make their broadcasts, concerning specific sacred truths you need to know, shortly after the governmental and financial changes formally happen. In this way the Galactic Federation and your Light families can present themselves and explain the grand gift of Spirit which will soon transform you into fully conscious Beings of Light. This sacred transformation will reunify your physical, spiritual, and higher mental and emotional bodies. Then you will become able to create your auspicious new star-nation and be welcomed back with open arms into the galactic community which awaits you with joyous anticipation!

Today we reviewed the conditions that are shaping up rapidly to present you with an exciting transformation. The divine plan and the decrees of the Creator have brought us to the brink of this wondrous new realm. It is time to rejoice and prepare to welcome these events as they manifest before your eyes! Know, dear Ones, that the countless Supply and never-ending Prosperity of Heaven are indeed Yours! So Be It! Selamat Gajun! Selamat Ja! (Sirian for Be One! and Be in Joy!)

We perceive at this time your beautiful anticipation and your efforts to ready yourselves for the twelve-twelve gateway. Please do not allow yourselves to go into the energy of stress over this, dear ones. Your course has been set by your desire and intentions. We are working with you every moment, especially during your cycles of sleep. You are in the flow so firmly now that you should be able to just allow yourselves to be carried along with the current. We would ask you to use three images for the next few days. First, please be sure that, as often as you can think of it, you ground yourselves firmly into the energies of your dear mother earth. Our channel uses the image of a vast system of roots, as those of a great tree. This will work nicely indeed if you have not an image of your own. Next, as you feel the wonderful flow of unconditional love surrounding you, please see yourselves sharing it with the entire network of lightworkers on and around the planet. And finally, breathe into your heart, find your love and gratitude for all that is transpiring, and send that gratitude to the source of your life. Be thankful for all that you are and all that you are becoming. What you feel in those moments, allow yourselves to sit in, float in, absorb into every cell of your being. Some of you, most of you, are getting momentary glimpses, hints, moments of insight, into what may be approaching for you. These will expand, slowly for some, explosively for others. Savor them, rejoice in them, but perhaps hold them for now quietly in your hearts. Let their energies grow within you. You will know when to share them. Meantime, as the tsunami of internal change approaches, please await it with joy and love. It is, after all, the answer to your collective prayers and the hopes of billions over vast stretches of your cycles of time. See the first trickles of wondrous change and know in your hearts the vast floods are following. Hold our hands tightly now and prepare to step into your future. Hold us in your hearts as we hold you in ours. Good day. Copyright © Ronald Head. All Rights Reserved.

Hi Precious Heart,

Your time is at hand! We are in the midst of a momentous event on this planet that each and every one of us have been preparing to participate in for aeons of time.  I AM delighted that you are awake, and that you have volunteered to help lift Humanity and all Life evolving on this sweet Earth up the Spiral of Evolution to the next octave of our learning experience.

You may not know on a conscious level all of the details of your lifetimes worth of preparation, but I assure you, your God Self, your I AM Presence, knows exactly how you can be the most effective instrument of God during the unprecedented shift of energy, vibration, and consciousness at hand. You have an important part to play or you would not be in embodiment and receiving this information during this critical time.

Ask your I AM Presence for guidance, then remain in a state of Listening Grace. Respond according to the inner promptings of your heart to the opportunities that are being magnetized into your sphere of awareness. There are myriad events taking place all over the planet during the month of December 2012. See which events resonate in your heart, then make the choice to join physically by attending the events or to join in consciousness by adding your Light from wherever you are on the planet.

When we join together physically or in consciousness, the Company of Heaven has been granted a Cosmic Dispensation to amplify our efforts a thousand times a thousandfold. This gift of Divine Grace will exponentially expand the Light we are capable of adding to the world during this Cosmic Moment. Please do not let this opportunity pass you by.

I AM going to be participating in three events that I would like to invite you to participate in. Please read the following information carefully and see how these events resonate in your heart.

Tomorrow, November 28th, we will experience a very powerful Lunar Eclipse that will expand the Open Heart energy of both Humanity and Mother Earth. This will allow the I AM Presence of every person on Earth to magnetize the patterns of perfection from our newly birthed Renaissance of Divine Love more effectively from the Realms of Cause. This will pave the way for the powerful activities of Light that will occur in December.

For the December 12, 2012 events, 12:12:12, I have the honor of participating in the STAR KNOWLEDGE CONFERENCE at the Carefree Resort in Phoenix, Arizona. That event will take place December 10-13, 2012. For details please click on this link and go directly to the website:

http://www.starknowledgeconference.com 

On December 12, 2012, 12:12:12, our Mother God—the Holy Spirit, and the Feminine Aspects of Deity throughout all Creation, will breathe into the Earth’s Crystal Grid System the highest frequencies of God’s Transfiguring Divine Love that Life on this planet is capable of withstanding. Due to the monumental influxes of Light that have occurred over the past several decades, and especially since the Dawn of the New Millennium, this will be the greatest influx of Divine Love Humanity has ever experienced.

For over 500 years, December 12th has been celebrated in Mexico and throughout Central and South America as the Feast Day of the Virgin of Guadalupe. For millions of people this aspect of Mother Mary has symbolized the return of the Divine Feminine, our Mother God. On 12-12-12 our Mother God, and Her exponents representing the Divine Feminine throughout all Creation, will cocreate a Forcefield of Divine Love that will envelop every atomic and subatomic particle and wave of Life on Earth, and all of the spaces in-between the particles and waves of Life. This forcefield will reinforce a multidimensional and multifaceted Womb of Divine Love and a Birth Canal of Divine Love that will assure Earth’s safe passage up the Spiral of Evolution, and the Birth of the New Earth in the Realms of Cause.

The Beings of Light are aware that in most instances this information is beyond the comprehension of our finite minds. But they assure us that the I AM Presence of each and every one of us clearly understands the bigger picture of what is happening on this planet. They said that adding to the Light of the world during this miracle of the Shift of the Ages and the Birth of the New Earth in all her splendor is exactly why we volunteered to embody on Earth at this time.

The events of 12-12-2012 will be the final steps of preparation leading up to the December Solstice and the Birth of the New Earth on 12-21-2012. These two dates reverberate with the master number 11, 1+2+1+2+2+0+1+2=11 and 1+2+2+1+2+0+1+2=11, the numerical frequency of the transformation of the physical into the Divine. Isn’t God fun?

On December 20th, from 7:00-9:00 p.m., we at the New Age Study of Humanity’s Purpose have organized an event that will take place in Tucson, Arizona at Loew’s Ventana Canyon Resort. During this Activity of Light, THE SHIFT OF THE AGES, we will create the safety net for the Cosmic Events that will take place during the December Solstice. This event is FREE and open to the public.

During the Activity of Light on December 20th, we will unite with the Company of Heaven and Lightworkers around the world. Together we will cocreate the sacred space for the greatest influx of Light Humanity and the Earth have ever experienced. We will form a Chalice of Light that will cradle the Earth and serve as a particle accelerator to prepare every man, woman, and child to safely receive the monumental influx of Light that will occur on Earth when we align with the Galactic Core of the Milky Way during the December Solstice.

On December 21-22, 2012, I have been invited to participate in a very powerful event that will take place in Sedona, Arizona. Sedona is a power point along Earth’s Crystal Grid System through which the 5th-Dimensional Crystalline Solar Light from Suns beyond Suns beyond Suns will flow during the December Solstice and the Galactic Alignment. This event is called SEDONA 2012 FESTIVAL. For details please click on this link and go directly to the website:

On December 21-22, 2012, the Earth will align with the Galactic Core of the Milky Way. This will open a portal of Light that will extend from the very Heart of our omniscient, omnipresent, omnipotent Father-Mother God—the Cosmic I AM—All That Is, into the Divine Momentum pulsating in the center of the Earth. This influx of Light will flow through God’s all-encompassing Divine Matrix to bless every particle of Life on this planet. This Divine Matrix is the Body of our Father-Mother God within which all Creation lives, moves, breathes, and has its Being. This influx of Light will begin the process that will Birth the New Earth in the Realms of Cause. This will be Earth’s New Beginning. From that moment forth, the patterns of our Planetary Cause of Divine Love and our Renaissance of Divine Love will easily flow into the mental and emotional strata of Earth.

From this new awareness people will be inspired to work together to find win-win solutions that will benefit every person and enhance the existence of every facet of Life on Earth. This is monumental! Please be the instrument of God you volunteered to be prior to this embodiment.

I Come From A Thousand Life Times And More,

Shared Through The Ages And Cycles Of Time:

Channelled through Pat Grabham.

I come from a thousand life times and more, shared through the Ages And Cycles of Time, since we left our Home in the Divine Spheres.

Many life times, especially during those early Ages, we travelled  together; great was our joy at this, as we made innumerable journeys down to Planet Earth, from our Home in the Spheres Above.

That one-ness was separated to all intents and purposes, one of us remaining in the Plane of our Birth, whilst the other took on yet another incarnation on Earth.

Great was our joy when the beloved on earth’s duration ceased, and returned to our Celestial Home, when together we became once more whole; that Dual Ray of One-Ness, Separating at Will, so we each had our Own Identity, but were One Eternally Entwined, Since We Were Created From The Very Breath Of The Godhead.

Whilst away, dearest beloved, nothing is forgotten, but joy comes from knowing – We Will Soon Be As One, Upon Your Return Back Home To The Celestial Realms.

Your Earth journeys have been mine, as mine yours, just as my experiences in the Divine Spheres now, are yours, beloved, to access and remember, able to tune into our Heritage, Divine Love for all, As We Await The Call From Our God, to put into Action those next stepping stones, planned so long ago in Ages Past.

As I, as I always have, walk beside you, enfold you in my Ray of Love and Protection, Speak to you, as I have, time and time again.

You have heard my voice innumerable times, in different life times, and as your soul recognises this, it brings joy to me, knowing we are yet again in unison.

The Light Of Our Father Blesses us both, as we Transcend Time and Space, Travel Through The Ether, And Different Spheres of Being, which in reality is but a thought away.

I can be with you, and am, in but a heartbeat, as you can me, your beloved, as we Journey Into And Through God’s Future Planes Of Being.

My attributes and qualities blend beautifully with yours, dearest beloved, we are but the left and right of each other, two sides of the same coin. Our Dual Ray knows no separation, as we remain one.

Sun-Ray.

The Pyramids and the Constellation of Orion

According to the accepted version of history, the three massive Pyramids on the Giza Plateau in Egypt were built by armies of Hebrew slaves for the glory of the Pharaohs of Egypt. This idea was introduced to the world by the visit to Egypt of the 5th century Greek historian Herodotus. He claimed that the Pyramids were built by teams of 100,000 men, changed every few months, over a period of 20 years. The fact that this meant that one block of stone had to be laid exactly in place every 3 1/2 minutes 24 hours a day seems to have been overlooked by recent Egyptologists! The fact that there wasn't this kind of manpower in 4th Dynasty Egypt for almost 5000 miles around is equally ignored! Not to mention the ludicrous theories about the stones being rolled on logs – when the only trees endemic to Ancient Egypt were date palms (a valuable food source, so unlikely to be cut down, and far too soft a wood to withstand the weight of such stones for more than a few feet!) – or pushed up a ramp (a ramp which would have entailed more work than the construction of the Pyramid itself, and would have left behind around 6 billions pounds of construction garbage, none of which has ever been found!)

The Pyramids are supposed to be monuments to the Pharaohs, tombs to preserve the royal bodies for a continued existence in the afterlife, and yet no bodies have ever been found inside them. This misconception of history has led to some very basic misunderstandings about Egyptian culture and history, and has led to perhaps the greatest conspiracy of all time: who built the Pyramids?

Let me start by examining some hard facts which nobody can dispute, and looking in turn at what these facts might represent or mean:

1. The Great Pyramid (known as that of Khufu/Cheops) contains no Pharaoh's body, no treasure chamber, and no treasures. There is no indication that it ever has contained these things. The popular myth of the Pyramids being royal tombs is clearly nonsense. The tombs archaeology has accepted – those in the Valleys of the Kings and Queens – are obviously tombs, storehouses of the Pharaoh's earthly riches, intricately prepared to ensure his survival in the next world. The Great Pyramid contains none of the obvious trappings of a tomb.

2. The only reason it is known as the Khufu/Cheops Pyramid at all is due to some Victorian graffiti! When Colonel Howard Vyse blasted his way into the Great Pyramid he was determined to make his name as an Egyptologist. He longed for nothing more than to make some monumental discovery which would make him famous. His disappointment at finding the Pyramid empty was too much for him to bear – it was his last season in Egypt – and in the dead of night it is said that he crept up into the 'air shafts' (known as 'spirit stones' to the Egyptians) above the King's Chamber and daubed some hieroglyphs in red paint. The following morning he made his 'discovery' and subsequently earned his place in the history books as being the man who discovered the identity of the owner of the Great Pyramid!

It is worth mentioning in addition that the symbols he painted were not even accurate ones for the period in which the Pyramid was then believed to have been built. The symbol for 'Ra' – chief amongst the Egyptian gods at that time – was depicted wrongly. Now surely if an Egyptian had painted that symbol he would have got it right! Not to do so would have been a grave insult to the most highly respected and feared of the Egyptian pantheon.

3. The stone sarcophagus which is contained within the Great Pyramid is too large to have been brought into the chamber in which it stands. Many books on the subject of this particular anomaly either point-blank ignore the question or state rather bizarrely that the sarcophagus must have been installed during the building process. Now, surely, to a civilisation as advanced as that of the Ancient Egyptians, this solution would have made no sense whatsoever. If the reason for making the sarcophagus – which incidentally shows no indication of ever having been occupied – larger than the doorway was to put off thieves, surely the subsequent sealing of the chamber with huge stone portcullis blocks, and the thorough blocking off of the Ascending Corridor which leads to the King's Chamber by three enormous granite plugs, would have been sufficient. It is highly unlikely that the opportunistic thieves of Ancient Egypt would have taken the time to plough through that much solid rock just to get into a chamber which they must have known was empty of all riches. And if the chamber was completely barren and empty, why go to such great lengths to ensure that it wasn't opened up ever again? What secrets does the so-called King's Chamber hold?

4. Some visitors, including the great and fearless Emperor Napoleon himself, have experienced strange visions and environmental distortions whilst inside the Great Pyramid, particularly the King's Chamber. In the 1930s, author Paul Brunton spent a night there and was assailed by visions of "a circle of hostile creatures" which he likened to "elemental creations, grotesque shapes, madmen, hulking and devilish apparitions". Was this mere hallucination? In more recent times such ideas have been put down to the background radiation given off by the black granite of the chamber, but surely if it was that simple then everyone who visited the chamber would experience a similar thing, wouldn't they?

Early experiments indicated that the King's Chamber 'spirit stones' did seem to generate an electrical field which caused minor shock to at least one poor visitor drinking from a metal hip flask! It has been suggested that the Pyramid, because of its granite blocks, could transmit and receive radio and even microwave signals very well, and some believe that it gives off energy in an 'emanating apex' – this means that energy spirals off the top of the structure in a circle which widens as it permeates the atmosphere. Whilst some have seen this as mere New Age hokum, others have said this confirms their suspicions that the Pyramid is some kind of beacon intended for use from space.

More recently, ex-NASA consultant Richard Hoagland has stated that radioactive sand was found in a chamber behind the Queen's Chamber, which might explain both the weird experiences of Napoleon et al and the anomalous radioactive date readings given by the Pyramid, in which it appears that the top of the structure is 1000 years older than the bottom! This has led some people to speculate that the Pyramid was constructed upside down in mid air by alien technology and then swung over into place on the Giza Plateau. I could not possible comment.

5. A road eight feet wide and four inches thick could be built from San Francisco to New York and put inside the Great Pyramid. It has also been speculated that a wall three feet high and one foot thick could be built all the way around France with the amount of stone it took to build the Great Pyramid. Its perimeter is almost 1 kilometre, and the inside area – a massive 53,000 square metres – would be able to incorporate the cathedrals of Florence, Milan and St Peter's (The Vatican), as well as Westminster Abbey and St Paul's. And this was accomplished by people of the Stone Age, yes?

6. They are the sole remnant of the Seven Wonders of the World. The Pyramids are also, apart from the Great Wall of China, the oldest surviving artificial structures on Earth.

7. There are no true hieroglyphic markings inside the Pyramids – remarkable for a nation which carved them into just about every available surface they had. Nor are there any real clues from hieroglyphs elsewhere as to how the Pyramids were built. The only hieroglyphs inside the Great Pyramid are the red paint daubings of Howard Vyse and are not genuine Ancient Egyptian carvings. Although Pyramids elsewhere in Egypt, most notably those of a much later date than the Pyramids at Giza, do contain hieroglyphs – the derivation of the so-called 'Pyramid Texts'! – the Great Pyramid and its two companions of the Giza Plateau are untouched by the scribe's knife.

8. As Giza Pyramid investigator August Tornquist states: "The Great Pyramid was the greatest single undertaking in the whole history of mankind. And yet there is not one picture or drawing, not one artefact, not one inventory or tally sheet to tell of its construction. The Egyptians left us some 3000 years of written and pictorial history covering virtually everything that happened in their culture. From babies being born, to ploughing and harvesting, building, weaving, sacrificing, praying, embalming... but nothing about the Pyramids of Giza. Why?"

For a nation that loved to boast, they seem strangely reticent to tell us anything about the Pyramids at Giza. Perhaps the reason was simply because they were as much a mystery to the Ancient

Egyptians as they are to us.
There is in fact documentary evidence – from Sumerian clay tablets unearthed in the great historical library of Nineveh – that the Great Pyramid was known to the Sumerians of 10,000 years ago, 6000 years before the first Pharaoh of Egypt was even born!

9. It is built to face true North, supposedly at a time when such computations could not have been possible. Are we to believe that the Ancient Egyptians – on top of all their other wonders – were also the first civilisation to possess knowledge of mathematics so precise that they could determine true North from magnetic North? Come to that, are we to believe that they could even find magnetic North, or know what its significance was? Tied in with this idea of being able to locate true North is the notion that the Earth is round, a fact not generally accepted until the last few centuries. Some still dispute it even today!

10. The Great Pyramid is located at the exact centre of the Earth's land mass. That is, its East-West axis corresponds to the longest land parallel across the Earth, passing through Africa, Asia, and America. Similarly, the longest land meridian on Earth, through Asia, Africa, Europe, and Antarctica, also passes right through the Pyramid. Since the Earth has enough land area to provide 3 billion possible building sites for the Pyramid, the odds of its having been built where it is are 1:3 billion. As previously discussed in my article on Anomalous Maps, the ability to compute longitude was not supposedly available to cartographers or anybody else until the 18th century. Without an understanding of longitude it would be exceptionally difficult to be able to pinpoint the size, shape, and relative mappings of the Earth's land masses and seas. Without longitude it would have been near impossible to undertake major sea journeys, and yet if the evidence (such as Egyptian mummies containing cocaine traces) is reliable, the Egyptians did actually undertake such exploratory missions, even as far as South America (the only place the cocaine could have come from). (All this despite their apparent hatred of sailing on the open seas!) And even if we accept that the Egyptians of thousands of years ago were competent navigators, how could they have known about the exact interrelation of the rest of the Earth's land mass? And then there are the statistics...

11. Like 20th century bridge designs, the Great Pyramid's cornerstones have balls and sockets built into them. Several football fields long, the Pyramid is subject to movements of expansion and contraction from heat and cold, as well as earthquakes, settling, and other such phenomena. After 4,600 years its structure would have been significantly damaged without such construction. Recent construction experts called in to offer suggestions as to how the Pyramid could have been built make reference to the 'settle factor' of any large building. They have publicly stated that while the acceptable settle factor of a modern skyscraper is 6" per hundred years, the simple fact is that the Pyramid – using more construction material than 35 Empire State Buildings – has settled less than 1/2" in 5000 years! Modern construction has also averred that although for a large modern tower block the acceptable variance from complete alignment of all four sides is 6", the four sides of the Pyramid are out of perfect alignment by less than 1/4"!

The casing stones, 144,000 in all, were so brilliant that they could literally be seen from the mountains of Israel hundreds of miles away. For those interested in possible symbolic significance, in Bible prophecy 144,000 is the number of people – 12,000 from each of the 12 tribes of Israel – who are supposed to evangelise the world in the days before the Apocalypse. The outside surface stones are cut within 0.01" of perfectly straight and at nearly perfect right angles for all six sides. And they were placed together with a gap between them of only 0.02". Modern technology cannot place such 20-ton stones with greater accuracy than those in the Pyramid. As already noted above, the variance from perfect alignment seen in the Pyramid is still something which is unattainable today.

What can we deduce from these facts? That whoever built the Pyramids used a technology that we still do not possess today to cut, move, and cement stones. Whoever built it also had some considerable knowledge of the Earth, because they were built in one of the few locations with a strong enough bedrock to support the great weight. The builders also knew where the greatest land mass of the Earth was in both the North-South and East-West directions. After studying the detailed measurements made by the investigators before him, Sir Isaac Newton (who was fascinated by the Pyramids) recognised that many key measurements would be in round numbers if the standard unit of measure was just 0.001" (1/1,000) larger than the British inch – which just happens to be the Sacred Jewish Inch. (The Sacred Jewish Inch, 1/25 of a cubit, equals 1.00106 British inches.) This discovery allowed the secrets of the Pyramid to be unlocked and revealed unmistakable and mathematical relationships.

For instance: A – We know from geometry that there is a universal relationship between the diameter of a circle and its circumference. Consider this: The height of the Pyramid's apex is 5,812.98", and each side is 9,131" from corner to corner (in a straight line). If the circumference of the Pyramid is divided by twice its height (the diameter of a circle is twice the radius), the result is 3.14159, which just happens to be pi. Incredibly, this calculation is accurate to six digits. So the Pyramid is a square circle, and thus pi was designed into it 4,600 years ago. Pi is demonstrated many times throughout the Pyramid.

B – Other numbers are also repeated throughout. Each of the Great Pyramid's four walls, when measured as a straight line, are 9,131", for a total of 36,524". At first glance, this number may not seem significant, but move the decimal point over and you get 365.24. Modern science has shown us that the exact length of the solar year is 365.24 days.

C – The average height of land above sea level (Miami being low and the Himalayas being high), as can be measured only by modern-day satellites and computers, happens to be 5,449". That is the exact height of the Pyramid.

D – All four sides of the Pyramid are very slightly and evenly bowed in, or concave. This effect, which cannot be detected by looking at the Pyramid from the ground, was discovered around 1940 by a pilot taking aerial photos to check certain measurements. As measured by today's laser instruments, all of these perfectly cut and intentionally bowed stone blocks duplicate exactly the curvature of the earth. The radius of this bow is equal to the radius of the Earth. This radius of curvature is what Newton had long been seeking.

All this has led many to see the Pyramids (particularly the Great Pyramid) as being built by visitors from another planet, since the technology was obviously not such as would have been available to Stone Age Man. The theorists speculate that the Pyramid is a message, a symbol of knowledge which we as early humans learnt to decipher, and hence built our own versions of the Pyramid, examples of which litter the Egyptian desert plateaux in crumbling ruins. This message indicates that whoever built the Pyramid knew the Earth well: the length of the year, the radius of curvature, the standard measurement techniques, the average height of the continents, and the centre of the land mass. They were able to construct something that we still cannot construct today, and they were able to tie all these things together in this single structure. Were they extraterrestrial, or perhaps even supernatural? Some people think so. You be the Judge.

The 12:12:12 celebration is linked to Alchemy Consciousness, as well as the Alchemy of
Consciousness. The days of “blindly” living your life have long ago ceased. You are living in a state
of higher awareness within a world embodying great potential. I, Kuthumi, stand in front of you
today, my energy graces the presence of your planet and I challenge you to stand up and say “no”
to the old ways of reacting to life and the old ways of creating the limitations of your past.
The 12:12 vibration is one of the most powerful in existence relating specifically to human
consciousness.

The reason why I say this is because on the 12 th of December every year the
attention of the entire universe is turned to Mother Earth, it is the Universal Solstice; the
celebration of the light soul that exists within every soul currently inhabiting earth.

You inhabit earth for a purpose. The purpose is not to be, or remain inhibited. The lessons that
have presented themselves to you on your earth journey have inhibited certain aspects of yourself.
That time of inhibition is now ending. You have entered a world where you have to truly
understand what it means for light to reflect light. If you have been one of those who have bought
into the idea that light and dark need to stand in equal amounts in order for one to truly learn and
master the lessons of light and balance, then I must ask you now to immediately erase that from
your consciousness. The choices that you have made are presenting you with this opportunity; the
opportunity to live your life expressing and reflecting light, and in so doing, attracting every aspect
of light that exists within you into your physical reality, and having it reflected back at you. This
may challenge many of your belief systems, especially when there are so many people out there
telling you that if you do not experience darkness you cannot continue to grow. Although that has
been the case in the past, it is now changing. Now you are facing the pain and suffering of YOUR
PAST so that you can live within the realms of light NOW, without having to constantly create
drama and suffering in order to feel you have earned your right to experience peace and
happiness.
