Equinox

 

Overnight today and into tomorrow is the Vernal Equinox here in the northern hemisphere, and the Autumnal Equinox for the southern hemisphere.  Either way, it is a time of year for ceremony, introspection and intending.  The equinoxes are all about balance in one's life.  Your imbalance  might be physical, as in a health issue, emotional, or in the way of lifestyle issues.  It's time to do some sort of ceremony.  I like to do a burning bowl, but you can simply write your release and positive outcome on a piece of paper and set a match to it outside.  Your higher aspects will get your message and hopefully present you with some life changes.  

I have been watching our weather here in SW Utah, and tonight looks like it will be the best for going out to the Parowan Gap  to enjoy the sunset.  It will be chilly with possibly some snow on the ground, so I will bundle up.  If all goes well, I will post again tomorrow about that.  There is a several day window for the equinox, so you have enough time for your own ceremony.  

Have a good one!

Nighttime Messages

For some time now, I have been aware that we each have a “team” that exists in the unseen realms. They are here to assist and guide us.  Through my work with Angela Zabel and Ken Lloyd, that reality has become more concrete for me.  I am not talking about channeling them, as many people do, but I do occasionally call on them for assistance, assuming that my requests are heard and acted upon.  During my recent trip to Hawaii, some of the hiking was pretty tough.  I asked my team for help in hiking out of the very deep volcanic calderas, and also used Ken Lloyd’s self healing techniques on my sore muscles later in the evenings.

I also go through a process when I lay down to go to sleep at night to clear out any heavy energy that I might have picked up during the day.  After that I ask my team to do any additional healing work on me that I may need, and download any needed information.  Sometimes that can lead to a pretty sleepless night!  Not that I am conscious of what is going on, just that something is happening.

Last night was unusual.  I woke up around 2:30 AM.  The key to getting back to sleep involves quieting my mind as best as I can.  Before I could do that, some messages came through.

Now, I have been divorced for many years, and hardly give it a thought anymore.  I do however occasionally think about the big choice points I have had in my life, and where I would be now if I had chosen something different.   Leaving my husband was a huge choice point that I can see in retrospect.

A calm female voice started speaking to me as I tried to get back to sleep.  She told me when I had decided to leave the marriage, I was at a point in my spiritual evolution where if I stayed in the marriage, I would have majorly derailed my path and purpose for this lifetime.  I was so exhausted back then, that all I could think about was to get out and take care of myself.  I started my shamanic training shortly after that, and in spite of that healing work, it took several years to get back to my “real” self. 

My ex husband died suddenly 17 years after the divorce.  What would my life have been if I had stayed through to his death?  The soothing voice told me that it would have been extremely difficult if not impossible to get back on my path at that point.  Wow!! 

My decision to leave the marriage must have seemed like a snap decision to others at that time, but I would like to believe that some higher aspect of myself had somehow and in some way urged me to take that step.  Where would I be if I hadn’t done that?  There is no way to know for sure.  I do know that in retrospect, it was the right thing to do at the time. 

In conclusion, we all have higher aspects and a team that are here to guide us through life.  The trick is to listen to the subtle nudgings that come from these wise ones.  Take plenty of quiet time for yourself, treat yourself humanely, and listen!  Don't be afraid to act on your intuition.

Chakras Revisited

Last week I had an opportunity to watch George Kavassilas being interviewed by Alex Collier on Alex’s website, alexcollier.org.  I am sure that I got the announcement from George’s mailing list, as I do not follow Alex. 

I have been aware of the following information for some time, but hadn’t been guided to delve into it until now.  In his interview, George said that the chakra system was created by the Atlanteans, and the kundalini and the mysterious pineal gland were created by the Anunnaki.  I have known for some time that these “artificial” energy structures were created by off planet beings and installed into the original humanoids that inhabited this planet long ago.

As coincidence (ha!) would have it, I had just finished reading a book entitled “The Epic of Humanity” by Billy Carson and Matthew LaCroix.  In this book, they address the very subject of humanity’s origins going back 200,000 years.  To do this, they analyzed many ancient texts that talk about the Anunnaki, who were off planet creator gods, and how they were terra forming our planet to create a place for a new and advanced civilization.  The end result was the creation of today’s version of human to do that work.  Of course, it is much more complicated than that, but you will have to read the book to get the full picture.      

Now, the Anunnaki predate the Atlanteans by many thousands of years, and there may be a question as to whether they are related.  I believe they may be, and I am sure that there have been many authors and researchers that can verify that fact.  I also am not sure if the Anunnaki had chakras or a kundalini, or if they created these just to entrap humans and harvest their energy.  Same for the reincarnational cycle.  I think it is clear that these ancient creator gods could come and go at will without being trapped here to reincarnate again and again.

Getting back to the chakras, I have written extensively about these.  I am in alignment with George on this subject.  Years ago I tracked the chakras, and found that they do not leave the 4tth dimension, thus working with them will never lead to enlightenment, ascension, or escape from the reincarnational cycle.   Since they are polarized, they will take in positive energy as well as negative energy.  They are portals.  Removing them will eliminate the intake of negative energy, and will also necessitate taking in positive energy in other ways, which is easily doable. 

So we can see that by installing chakras, the original humanoids could be controlled by their “gods” who could pump in negative energy any time they wanted.  For those who know how to do this, it is still happening today!  This could be a friend or relative, a spiritual leader, or the news media.  By not having chakras, the intake portals would be gone. 

There are also stories about newly created humans possibly being able to surpass the creator gods, so those off planet beings had to install energetic protocols to prevent us from doing that.  It is time for us to remove those now!

On the other hand, again since the chakras are polarized, they can take in positive energy as well.  Many healers work on this basis.  But is the positive enough to outweigh the negative?  And why do some people clear their chakras on a daily basis only to have to do this continuously?

I have worked with Dr Darren Weissman who created the Lifeline Technique.  This is strictly a chakra based modality, but he focuses on clearing the heavy energy that the chakra has taken in according to the age when the particular trauma occurred.  Ken Lloyd does chakra clearing as part of his protocol, but not much of that.  If that shows up as part of a session, I just intend that any heavy energy that a chakra took in in the past be cleared.

R J Spina is another matter altogether.  He has created a 12 chakra system and insists that we need these for our physical health.  He extensively uses chakras in his healing protocols. I am wondering if he has harkened back to the Anunnaki for his system.  I can vouch for the fact that not only do we not need chakras for our physical health, but we also do not need a 3rd Eye chakra for our inner vision.  Ha!

So there you have my short version of the matter.  In these times of acceleration and evolution, all sorts of old and even ancient energetic patterns are being stirred up for us to see and hopefully transcend within ourselves.    Do we really want to go back to the era when humans were genetically manipulated to be worker bees?  Don’t we have enough of that already? 

For anyone interested in removing their chakras, here is the link to that process.

Sacred Places

 

(For those of you, who weren’t able to access the volcano videos in the last post, scroll down to the bottom of that page and click on “Read in Browser”.)

This post is the only other one that I will be doing on my recent trip, as my intent is not to do a travelogue!  In general, there was a lot of hiking involved in addition to identifying plants and birds that were new to me.  We went from the ocean on all sides of the Big Island, to our highest elevation of 4091 feet at the top of the Kilauea volcano, and through several ecosystems.  Miles and miles of old lava flows were seen everywhere we went.

Our local group leader, Kaika Nihipali-Wailani, was an award winning Hawaiian dancer and ceremonialist.  He came from a long lineage of native Hawaiians.  We visited 3 places in particular where he brought an offering for the spirits of those locations, and chanted in Hawaiian a prayer and asking permission for our group to enter. 

The first was at the bottom of the Halema’uma’u trail where it ends on the floor of Kaluapele, in the Kilauea caldera.   You can see that other offerings were left there in addition to the wreath of leaves that Kaika brought.  Fortunately, we were not near where the volcano would be erupting the next day.  (If you look carefully, you can see the steam coming up from the volcano above the top of the cairn and just below the horizon.)

The second location was the next day when we hiked down to the floor of the Kilauea Iki crater.  It was from here that we observed the great plume of smoke that signaled the start of the eruption.
There are many sacred sites throughout all of the Hawaiian Islands that were established and used by the original Polynesian inhabitants.  The forces of nature were revered as their gods.  Many of these have been lost to time, many carefully hidden and guarded, and others desecrated.   Many others have been preserved as National Historical Parks, and we had the honor of visiting one of these. 

Once we crossed over to the Kona side of the island, we were able to visit one of the most sacred locations on the western coast of the Big Island.  This was the Pu’uhonua o Honaunau (Place of Refuge) National Historical Park.  This 180 acre park was once the home of the royal grounds and a place of refuge for Hawaiian lawbreakers.  It was established about 450 years ago.  Captain cook, the first European to visit the islands, landed just north of there in 1779.

I could feel the spiritual energy and elevated life force, or mana, as soon as I started walking around.  We first walked down the coast a bit through what would have been a former residential area.  There were also numerous burials there in lava caves that had been documented but were off limits to the general public.  Waves were crashing onto the lava cliffs.  I can tell that I am in a special place when everything starts to slow down, as if I am walking through pudding.  I was feeling that there.

We turned back to go to the entryway to the royal grounds.   Kaika did another prayer and left an offering before we went in.   We were walking past what would have been ceremonial altars and platforms and royal residences.


After walking along the beach we encountered a magnificent megalithic wall that separated the royal grounds from the Place of Refuge.  The wall is up to 12 feet tall, 18 feet wide and 950 feet long and was constructed over a 400 year period.  It separated the Place of Refuge from the royal grounds.  The masonry was done in a way so that it could withstand earthquakes. 



The Place of Refuge was from an ancient Hawaiian tradition that would allow lawbreakers to avoid prosecution (death) if they could swim around the rough lava rocks to get there, being chased along the way.  Their crime would then be absolved by the resident priest.  Back then, there were many of these in existence in Hawaii, not only this one.

What interested me the most was the Hale o Keawe, which was a royal mausoleum that housed the bones of 23 Hawaiian rulers, including King Kamehameha’s great grandfather.  It is said that the mana exuded by these bones also gave power to the Place of Refuge.  Below is the reconstruction of the original temple on its original site.  Offerings are still left there on occasion.  All of the wooden figures are of Hawaiian gods and guardians of the site.  The bones of the rulers have long since been removed for safe keeping. 

I have to say that I could strongly feel the sacred energy of this particular place, even though many years have passed since the Hawaiian royals did ceremony here.   I hung out there for a bit just soaking in the mana. 

So this National Historical Park and the time spent with Pele and the erupting Kilauea volcano were the highlights of my trip.  Of course, there were hikes in the jungle, a visit to a Cloud Forest Preserve, and many new birds and wildflowers to photograph along the way.  Below is a very common orchid that was seen all over in the higher elevations.

And, good food and good company.  All in all, a great trip.

Kilauea Volcano

I just got back from a fabulous hiking trip to the Big Island of Hawaii.  What an adventure!  When I travel, I prefer physically active trips, as I have a hard time just standing there and listening to a lecture on some cultural site like a castle or museum.  I’ll do that for a little bit, but not for the whole trip.

This trip started out with a 3 flight itinerary to Hilo, Hawaii.  When I got there, I was pretty excited to see several of the astronomical observatories on the top of Mauna Kea from our hotel.  There was also snow on the top, which was an unexpected sight for sure.

While in Hilo, I found out that the Kilauea Volcano, which had been erupting off and on since December 23 of 2024, was currently taking a break.  I was bummed, although my reason for taking the trip was not to see an erupting volcano.  I had booked way before this current eruption cycle started. 

I had visited the Big Island twice in the mid-90’s for spiritual conferences, and was very connected to Pele, the Goddess of Hawaii’s Volcanoes.  So I started talking to her the next day on our way up to the Kilauea Military Camp, which was to be our group’s lodging for the next 3 nights, inside of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park.  I explained that I really wanted to see the eruption and experience her power. 

The next morning, we did a long hike along the Kilauea caldera rim and then down into the caldera and back up to the opposite side. The one way elevation change was 425 feet, and it was fairly steep both ways.  The cinder cone from the latest eruption was a little over a mile away.  It was smoking pretty heavily.  To our amazement, brief flashes of lava could be seen coming out of its right side.  Wow!  Another eruption was starting!  I have often written about the magic of nature, and we were about to experience it firsthand.  I thanked Pele profusely. 

At lunch time, we ate at the Volcano National Park Hotel, a perfect spot to observe the volcano.  At that time the cinder cone was still smoking heavily and spitting out some lava.  This was not actually considered an official eruption at that point.

There was also an excellent overlook at the edge of the caldera a short distance from the KMC, so we trekked out there in the dark after dinner, and that’s when the real action started.
The next morning, we did another long hike to the bottom of the Kilauea Iki crater, which takes you along a different edge of the Kilauea caldera and down 450 feet into the crater next to the main one where the eruption was happening.  All we could see from there was a huge smoke plume, which was pretty exciting.
 
We sped up our pace so that we could get back to the Volcano Hotel observation area to see the progress of the eruption.  It was going full force now.  It was estimated that the height of the eruption at this point was about 330 feet.   Here are some photos and a video.  To view the videos, go to your browser.

The rest of the afternoon was spent driving down to the coast to see the extensive lava flows and hike out to the Pu’uloa Petroglyphs.   They are located in a very isolated location, and it is not known why this spot was chosen for the over 25,000 rock carvings that are found there.

By the time we got back to the Volcano Hotel for dinner, bedlam had erupted along with the volcano!  There were cars parked all over the place along the roads, and the park police were directing the backed up traffic.  Apparently, once an eruption starts, word spreads down in Hilo, and people jump into their cars to drive up and look. 

The overlook of the hotel was packed with people.  Many were having cocktails, and it was quite the party atmosphere.  It was just getting dark at that time.  As we were eating dinner, I popped out several times to take photos.


Once we got back to the Kilauea Military Camp lodging, several of us walked out to that overlook to get a different angle on the eruption. 

Almost at the exact time when we left the area the next day, episode 9 of the eruption had stopped.  Talk about being in the right place at the right time!  I like to think that my inner conversation with Pele got her to show herself to us. 

Remember that the magic of nature is all around us all the time.  It may be a small thing like a butterfly drinking nectar from a flower, or a big thing like an erupting volcano.  Be observant  and allow that magic to speak to you!
