After Glow

 

Last night here was the evening of the Winter Solstice.  It was cloudy all day, and I was not sure if there would be a good viewing of the sunset out at the Parowan Gap, but I decided to take a chance and drive there anyway.  The temps were in the low 50's with some wind.  Actually very nice.

I was greeted by 2 ravens up on a tall rock near where I parked.  An omen perhaps?

There were several cars already parked there, so I knew I would have company.  It turned out that these were families with a bunch of little kids.  So nice that children were being exposed to this kind of activity!  So I proceeded to climb up the fairly steep hill to just below the viewing location and waited.  This is what it looked like at first.

As the sun started to set down through the gap, things lightened up.

Finally, I could see just a peek of the sun down in the bottom of the V.

The hills and flat areas to my north were lit up, too.

We had been having some beautiful sunrises and sunsets here in the last few days, so I waited until after the sun went down to see what would transpire.  Here is the afterglow

Even though it was getting dark and I still had to find my way down the hill, it was well worth it to linger a bit and enjoy the after glow of the solstice.  

One last gift awaited me.  When I drove back through the gap heading west and back to town, this is what I saw.  A brilliant red sunset right over Cedar City.  

So Happy Winter Solstice to all.  Here's wishing you a New Year full of magic!  

Winter Solstice-Ignite Your Fire

Sunday the 21^st is the Winter Solstice here in the Northern hemisphere.  This is just a quick reminder to do some sort of ceremony to ignite the fire of your intent for the coming year.  2026 is numerologically a number 1 year for our planet, signifying the start of a cycle and the beginning of the new.  Take advantage of the dynamic forward motion of the solstice to set a strong intent for yourself. 

I will be going out into my yard in a bit to do a bowl burning.  Letting go of the old and outdated and welcoming in the new potential.  Happy Solstice to all of you!  May 2026 bring you good health, prosperity and never ending joy.

A Big Shift

Yesterday morning started in an unusual way.  I am usually a morning person, but on this day I felt kind of floaty and not quite in my body.  Perhaps it was because later in the day I was participating in 2 interesting events.

The first one was a 2 hour workshop with Ken Lloyd entitled “The Big Miracle Event”.  That was to take place from 4-6 PM Mountain Time.  The second one was a live event with Rupert Guy down in St George from 7-9 PM.  This event involved walking out into the local desert, laying on the ground and calling in Extraterrestrials. 

So one of the first things that I did in the morning was to pull 2 tarot cards.  The first one was from my favorite deck, the Osho Zen Tarot.  The second was from a deck that I rarely use from Uri Gellar called the Extraterrestrial Oracle.  A photo of the 2 cards is above.  Wow!  See the synchronicity?  So I know that something monumental was going to happen later in the day.

I was feeling the ET energy all throughout the day, but as the afternoon wore on, I decided not to do the drive all the way down and back to St George in the dark. 

Ken’s event was really nice.  Since he gave a holiday discount for the 2 hour workshop, he had over 350 people in attendance.  This number did not include the people who signed up and were going to listen on line later.  I do not know if it was his light language transmissions that were so powerful, or the fact that he had a large group attending, but it really packed a punch energy wise.  When he was finished, I had some dinner, and sat down to meditate and tune into the ET group in St George. 

It was at that point that I noticed my body vibrating, almost like shivering.  I was experiencing a massive cellular and DNA upgrade.  It felt as if my body was becoming crystal clear, and some aspects were becoming transparent.  That continued throughout the night and I got up several times just to walk around the house. 

Things have calmed down quite a bit this morning, but I am still feeling a bit floaty.  I pulled another Zen Tarot card, and got the same one labeled “The Source”.  Getting the same card 2 days in a row rarely happens, so I am assuming that the shifting and integration is still happening. 

Today, I am hosting a ladies lunch for our subdivision, with 10 people attending.  Who knows how that will go!  On the other hand, no accident that we will be having a big group.  My intent is to expand my new energy around the group and see what happens.  It could be very interesting.  Then I will take a much needed walk in the afternoon. 

An Amazing Discovery

I live about 1 1/3 mile from a major shopping area here in Cedar City.  If I need to shop there, I normally drive.  Yesterday, since it was a beautiful day weather wise, and I only needed to buy one thing, I decided to walk down the hill to the Walmart.  On my way back, I took a short cut which led me around the back of the Walgreens drug store.  I had never been back there before, and what I saw really threw me!

What I encountered was a huge basalt monolith in a somewhat park like setting. The small area had been landscaped with trees and grass, and the grass around the stone had been tended and mowed.  What? 

I do not know when the Walgreens was built, but it had to be many years ago.  I can only assume that the construction company created the lovely spot for the monolith.  There are lava fields all over this area, and perhaps this huge stone rolled down the hill at some point.  One side of it has a lot of caliche, which indicates that it was laid flat on the ground for years.  The construction company had to use a big piece of heavy equipment to prop it up. Another possibility is that it was dug up during the construction and placed there.  

Here are some photos from different angles. 

In this photo, you can see the edge of the ancient lava flow at the top of the nearby hill. 

So what to do with this discovery?  When I visited Americas Stonehenge last May, we learned how to dowse the energy of the monoliths that were found there.  Any huge stone like this that is anchored into the earth draws up energy in a spiral formation around that stone.  This energy can be used for healing and raising one’s vibration.  I am assuming that this one is no different. 

I leaned my whole body back on it and stayed like that for a while.  It was a very serene and grounding feeling.  My sense is that no one has worked with the monolith in this way, and that its powers need to be re-activated.  The next time I visit it, I will take my pendulum and check it out.  Also leave some kind of offering.  

What a gift!  It goes to show you that nature holds all sorts of surprises, and you just have to look for them.. It could be a monolith like this, or a special grandfather tree, or a message from a particular animal.  Even urban locations like this can hold surprises.  You just have to be open and observant to find them. 

DNA Strand Number Three

 

Lately, I have become interested in the topic of junk DNA, and more specifically, our potential third DNA strand.  I am approaching this from strictly a spiritual/energetic viewpoint, and not a scientific one. 

I did a little research on junk DNA, and in broad and loose scientific terms, it is the 90% of what I would call DNA fragments that do not make up the double helix of the 2 strand DNA.  These fragments are found in a variety of places in and around our 2 strand DNA, and science now thinks that they perform certain functions.  The remaining 10% makes up the double helix. 

Energetically, the double helix creates the patterning for the physical, etheric, emotional and mental bodies of the human energy field.  There is a theory that the third strand, once assembled from our “junk” DNA and activated, will greatly accelerate humanity’s spiritual evolution.  We will experience a massive leap in consciousness. 

Evolution on this planet goes in cycles, a variety of cycles that go up and down.  We are currently pulling out of a down cycle.  So that must mean that we have been at the peak of up cycles in times past, right?  Is it possible that we had many more strands of DNA in the past, and that those extra strands were somehow disassembled for some reason, the result being the junk DNA? 

As many of you know, I am intensely interested in the very ancient sacred archaeological sites around the world, and have visited many of them.  In Peru in particular, how were those multi ton stones carved so finely and put into place without the use of mortar to fill in the cracks.  I am convinced that a more advance version of human knew how to do that.  I doubt that it was ET technology.  Did those ancient humans have a full complement of working DNA, perhaps 12 strands?  Did they loose those abilities when their civilizations dropped down in vibration because of a variety of reasons? 

Yesterday, I did my “last Saturday of the month” walking of our local labyrinth.  If you walk a labyrinth, you let go of what no longer serves on the way in, and embrace the new positive on the way out, and going slowly as it is an exercise in mindfulness and intention. 

On the way in, I asked to be shown my junk DNA, and anything that would prevent it from reassembling.  The bits and pieces looked transparent but with the edges clearly visible.  There were what looked like scabs on many of the edges, and also dark and thin barriers between the pieces.  All of this would have prevented the pieces from sticking together and reassembling.  So on the way in, I asked my higher aspects to start dissolving the barriers and removing the scabs. 

Then, in the center of the labyrinth, I connected to the highest divine vibration that I could, and asked for a template for the 3^rd strand to be created.  It showed up as a very thin strand of light.  On the way out, I asked for the appropriate junk DNA to magnetize to the template.  I could see the pieces starting to move and come together. 

This is of course a work in progress.  Remember that one should make every effort to keep their energy field clean and clear, and of a high vibration to facilitate this process.  BTW—I will be doing my usual New Year workshop for Angela Zabel entitled “Setting Your Energetic Template for 2026” on January 7^th.  You will learn how to call in a template and flesh it out and energize it.  This process can also be used for your 3^rd strand of DNA.

So there you have it.  I do not know where all of this will lead!  Please remember that what I have written here does not necessarily relate to any scientific explanation.  I am just reporting my experiences and some interpretations.  Fortunately, I have several trips planned this next year to highly energized ancient sites.  Perhaps more will be revealed at those places.

The Dark Days

Here it is, that time of year again.  The shortest days and longest nights of the year (Northern Hemisphere).  For me, the Dark Days always went from Thanksgiving week until Christmas, and sometimes up until New Years. 

Way back when I was married, holiday obligations ranged from family get togethers to work parties to getting together with friends.  It all became way too much, and it wasn’t until I got divorced and discovered the book “The Highly Sensitive Person” by Elaine Aron that I realized why the holidays were so unpleasant for me.  The hallmark of a highly sensitive person is that we tend to get easily overstimulated by what is happening around us.  Combine that with a marriage that was not quite working out, and I just wanted to stay home. 

Of course, holidays as a child were perfectly fine, except for the usual on going family drama that was bound to occur.  That was nothing new.  As children, all we had to do was open presents, enjoy Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner, and hang out with relatives.  There were no obligations. 

Once I was single, I could pick and choose what holiday activities I wanted to engage in, in addition to being able to leave an event when it became too much.  I do have to say however, that I am able to tolerate much more craziness now than in years past. 

Now for the flip side of this yearly situation.  This is the dark time of the year in the Northern Hemisphere.  Days are short and nights are long.  What a perfect time to hunker down and go within.  Of course, that is easy for me to say as I am in a living situation where I can do that.   If you are not, I encourage you to create some down time for yourself.  Meditation, introspection, and contemplation are enhanced during this time of year.  I recommend finding a quiet place where you will not be disturbed.  Even in your car will do if you need to get out of the house!  Close your eyes, and quiet your mind.  Do your best to sink into that dark void space and just be.  Calm and relaxed.  Even a few minutes of this is better than nothing.  You can even set your intent ahead of time for some sort of outcome or information.  By finding your quiet place, you will be resetting your energy field to zero to get ready for the start of the Winter Solstice, New Year.   

The end of the Dark Days is the Winter Solstice, when the days start to get longer.  For me, this is my organic New Year, and I always do some sort of ceremony on that date.  When I lived in Colorado, I would have a pot luck dinner and outdoor fire ceremony to commemorate the occasion.   The photo at the top of the page is of the Winter Solstice sunset from last year.   That was the first time I was able to go out to the Parowan Gap for the event, as the weather was dry and balmy. 

Winter Solstice is also a very important occasion for the Native American people.  Energetic seeds of intent are planted for the organic New Year, and the Sun is called upon to help germinate those seeds.  On that very important day, I can just feel the darkness starting to lift.  My holiday season is finished at that point, as I do not celebrate Christmas.  What a relief! 

So please take some time off for yourself in the weeks coming up, and take advantage of the dark womb of the void for your healing, peace and calmness.  That can be your holiday gift to yourself!
