Port of Morrow is The Shins’ fourth album and the first on leading man James Mercer’s own label, Aural Apothecary, after satisfying their three-album Sub Pop quota.  I gave numerous listens to their first two albums Oh, Inverted World and Chutes Too Narrow including but not limited to: rides to school, proper party soundtracks and one-man party soundtracks.  After high school I weathered the overplayed Garden State storm and remained a Shins fan.

Aside: I probably saw Garden State five or more times from 2004-05 and all I can remember about the movie to this day is The Shins being on the OST more than once, Zach Braff being annoying (but not nearly as annoying as I found him to be in Scrubs) and Natlalie Portman being gorgeous.  Years later I’m still listening to The Shins, Zach Braff might as well have his face on milk cartons and Natalie Portman is still gorgeous (and sans helmet).

After Chutes to Narrow, Mercer separated from his original bandmates (Dave Hernandez had replaced bassist Neal Lanford by this point) citing an aesthetic rift.  Original drummer, Jesse Sandoval, insisted in an interview that he was “fired.”  Some fans weren’t aware.  Others were, and they were underwhelmed when The Shins (Mercer) released Wincing the Night Away in 2007.

Wincing the Night Away was a point of contention that created two types of Shins fans.  There are the conservative Shins purists who miss Mercer’s original bandmembers (Jesse Sandoval, Marty Crandall and Neal Langford) and their “indie” appeal.  These fans, who I will refer to from now on as Shinnites (not to be confused the Shiite Muslim sect), refuse to believe that “The Shins” as we know “them” today will ever reproduce anything as good as Oh, Inverted World or Chutes to Narrow.

There are also progressive Shins fans who are not turned off by big league production or “the mainstream” and view The Shins as singer/songwriter James Mercer and everyone else.  These fans, who I will refer to as Mercerites, did not dismiss Wincing the Night Away as mediocre at best (or lose interest) and remain Shins enthusiasts.  Shinnites are typically more pretentious and clearly the bitterer of the two, but until Port of Morrow, I was a practicing Shinnite.

The Shins today is comprised of Mercer, Modest Mouse’s drummer Joe Plumber, Crystal Skulls’ Yuuki Matthews, Richard Swift and Jessica Dobson (at least while touring).  A band, or perhaps musical “artist” is more applicable in this case, must continue to evolve.  If an artist sounds the same as they did a decade ago, they are doing something wrong.  James Mercer is a more than competent songwriter as evidenced by his earlier works.  Wincing the Night Away bored and explored.  It didn’t have the first listen grabbers of the first two albums (think “New Slang” and “Mine’s Not a High Horse”).  With his latest release he chose, like some of his more successful contemporaries (The Black Keys, Girls), to revisit/spin the past four decades of pop/rock and explore production.

The album’s opener, “The Rifle’s Spiral,” has a traditional Shins sound with darker, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club overtones.  ”Simple Song,” the first single released, is as if Echo & the Bunnymen tried their hands at power pop.  ”Bait and Switch” recalls mid-80′s XTC.  Mercer’s delivery on “No Way Down” is rather Bono-ish.  The horns on “Fall of ’82″ recall Chicago…except Chicago pisses me off.

With regard to production, Mercer co-produced Port of Morrow with Greg Kurstin, production veteran, and each track (like it or not) is packaged with appropriate instrumentation and a glossy, but fitting bow.  Despite the fact that tracks like “Bait and Switch” and “No Way Down” scream “put me on the radio!” each song maintains a compositional sincerity.  Diehard Shinnites are probably clenching their teeth by this point, but they can sit and spin.  “September” is a pretty recollection of The Shins early success.

I still think that The Shins’ freshman album, Oh, Inverted World, is their best record to date, but Port of Morrow pushed a barely ajar fan door open once again.

Noteworthy Tracks: “The Rifle’s Spiral,” “September,” and “For A Fool.”

Rainbow Bridge Mother Crystal Skull is one of the 72 Dweller Crystal Skulls. Her physical Abode is in a cave high upon Mount Wai’ale’ale on the Hawaiian Island of Kaua’i.

She has informed me that it is HER time now to become active in the Earth. She links us to the activational codes  of the 13^th Living Crystal Skull (a Being not yet on this planet – at least in our current time line).

The Rainbow Bridge Mother forms that bridging to the 13^th who is the ultimate Awakener. “Rainbow” also will unite many in the world to prepare for the Heart Ascension and to actualize it – not only in their own beings but through transferring these “codes” to others who are ready to receive.

“Rainbow” also shall lead the Star Tribes forth from the land, the air and the sea. This shall be done in various ways. SHE will call them to unite the Star Codes in the DNA. The Humans, the Cetaceans, and several other more highly evolved mammals. This stage of unity is absolutely essential for the Earth’s full Ascension in becoming the “New Earth Star.”

Understand that the Dweller Crystal Skulls and their Seed Children (crystal skulls seeded with their codes) are receptors for multi-dimensional beings who have guided this planet and its inhabitants from the Earth’s inception.

Rainbow Bridge Mother informs me that the window between the 2012 Venus Transit of June 5-6^th through July 23-25 when the Nova cosmic event of  Sha’alura will strike the planet – is the time when the Star Tribes will begin to unite in the Light Language matrix of the DNA. Of course all is ALREADY united – all that is – is ONE. When I speak of “uniting” in this context it is a return to Awareness that actually triggers both etheric and physical wave-forms in the body and the planet which have lain dormant due to not being “recognized” or called forth.

I wrote  a previous blog article about this skull on Kauai in which Se’RA’fana told me the original Earth identity of the skull…

Atu’La Hunuapepe – High Priestess of the last Goddess Temple to stand on MU (Lemuria – the Hawaiian Islands are remnants of this Motherland). Her skull was changed to crystal ( a process of alchemy). With the breaking up of MU, so it was taken to the highest place of the Mother (MU) and there placed into Her mouth (cavern). It survives there to this day.

Now I am shown that the skull is becoming the Rainbow Bridge Mother in her current activational state.

Rainbow Bridge Mother (RBM) works most especially with the Cetaceans to translate the higher stellar Light Language into the human wave-forms so that humanity can once again come “home” to their true Light DNA vibration.

The specific Light Language which RBM and the Cetaceans are encoding come from the O’PAH the Sphere or Circle of Light that calls new creations into existence.

Much will come together to co-ordinate a birthing from the Maiden Grid on the planet – the Mother’s Womb. This “Golden Dolphin Child” shall come forth as a composite Being of our new Breath and Pure Gem Body. It will be “born” on July 25^th, 2012. RBM will be the mid-wife to this event. The “Child” will appear (to those who see him) as a human-sometimes-dolphin being. He is in effect, a composite “Sun King” set upon the “Throne” of Spiritual Power in the world by the Divine Feminine.

I was given…

O’pah Annutei

New Language of Light forming in the window of the Venus transit June 6th, 20120 and the cosmic Shanlura event of July 23rd.

Created from the 3rd Sacred Tone as it moves through the “Eye of the Needle” – from the center of the Earth up through Haleakala. The Dragon Beings supply the “whirlwind” or energy vortex with their O’pah “breath” for the new Language to arise from the Mouth of Gaia. The Dolphin Masters form the geometries of the holographic structure of the O’pah Annutei Language in the brain-mind complex.

More to come on this in the near future.

You  may have heard about Double Fine’s recent Kickstarter success.  They have raised over $2 million in donations to help create a point-and-click adventure in the classic style.  After falling out of favor in the 1990s, point-and-click adventure games have seen a resurgence in recent years due to the increases in casual gaming and episodic games.  Given how well the genre lends itself to touchscreens, I expect the growth of point-and-click games to continue.  LucasArts has re-released two Money Island games and created ones.   Telltale Games has even go so far as to take over and resurrect classic franchises, turning them in to episodic point-and-click adventures.

Here are some of the best point-and-click adventure games of the 90s. 

Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (1992)

Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis is a must-play for any fan of the point-and-click adventure genre.  It offers a great puzzles, a wide variety of locations, two playable characters and very well done voice acting.  Beyond being a great game on it’s own, it’s wonderfully true to the Indiana Jones franchise (pre-Crystal Skull).

Today you can get Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis by downloading it from Steam or by unlocking it on Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings on the Wii.

Day of the Tentacle (1993)

Day of the Tentacle follows three characters in the same place at different times after a time machine malfunctions.  You use them to both solve puzzles in their respective times and make changes that affect things in the time of another character.  In makes for some fun and interesting gameplay, and the madcap cast of characters and great art keep you laughing.

Unfortunately, it’s hard to find and play a legal copy of Day of the Tentacle, but with a little research you might find a method.  Your best bet might be eBay for this one.

Sam & Max Hit the Road (1993)

Everyone’s favorite freelance police take on the case of a carnival’s missing frozen bigfoot.  The search leads Sam and Max on a wild trip through tourist traps, to fights with country stars and to a an ending that you have to see to believe.

The downside is that you’ll probably have to head to eBay to find a legal copy of this too.  However, you can lead Sam and Max through other adventures in the new games by Telltale.

The Monkey Island Series (1990-)

The series takes place on and around a fictional Caribbean archipelago following the hapless pirate Guybrush Threepwood as he tries to win the heart of governess Elaine Marley and defeat the evil undead pirate LeChuck.  The game is known for its humor and for gameplay that almost never locks out the player after a mistake or allows you to kill the main character.  Instead the challenge comes from the puzzles and a method of dueling that involves a system of insults and comebacks.

The Secret of Monkey Island (1990)

As part of a special edition re-release, Guybrush’s first fight with LeChuck has received voice actors and a fresh new coat of HD paint.  It is currently available on iOS, Steam, XBLA, PSN and Mac OS X.  This is a great jumping off point for your first point-and-click adventure.

Monkey Island 2: LeChuck’s Revenge (1991)

This game has also been redone in HD and is available on the same platforms.  It follows Guybrush in his quest to win back Elaine’s love and defeat LeChuck with the treasure of Big Whoop.

The Curse of Monkey Island (1997)

Third third game in the Monkey Island series has not been redone in HD.  However, it’s my understanding that the game should still work on current computers with the right compatibility settings.  This is actually my favorite game from the series.  The stories in all of the games are good.  What sets this one apart is the art style.  Aside from looking great, their cartoon looks are perfect for the story.

And yeah, this one is about saving Elaine and beating LeChuck, too.

Escape from Monkey Island (2000)

Skip it.  The fun and humorous story is there, but it controls game-breakingly terribly.  Plus, it’s not eve a point-and-click and instead depends on keyboard or joystick controls.  The best way to play might be PS2.

Tales from Monkey Island (2009)

In Telltale’s episodes Guybrush works to save Elaine from LeChuck after the undead pirate is made human and the “Pox of LeChuck” are transmitted to Guybrush.  These are fun games and can be found on the same platforms as the special edition re-releases of the first two games.

Full Throttle (1995)

Full Throttle followed leader of the Polecat biker gang Ben as he fights to save his gang and stop a corporate goon from turning motorcycle producer Corley Motors in to a maker of minivans.  It features the voice of everyone’s favorite Joker: Mark Hamill.

Much like the Curse of Monkey Island, it has not been re-released but can still be found for sale online.

Blade Runner (1997)

The only game on here that isn’t a LucasArts game is Blade Runner.  It borrows heavily from the movie, allowing the player’s character to visit locations and characters from the movie as you search for a group of replicants that landed in LA. The game was billed as the first real-time 3D adventure because as the player investigates and gathers clues, the computer controlled AI characters complete their own tasks.  The player to decide how the main character will react in different situations.  Your decisions lead to one of 13 possible endings.

If you like the Blade Runner movie, the game Blade Runner is a must play.  This game, too, is out of production but can still be found online.

Awakening the Rainbow Serpent

8 Years ago phenomenal experiences led me to produce a filmed documentation of a journey called Awakening the Rainbow Serpent inspired by the Rainbow Serpent Festival. As the trip unfolded we did not enter the site of the festival, instead synchronisation occurred in Melbourne on the Australia day weekend and later around Valentine’s Day in … Sydney.

Venus Transit

I’ve had all these 8 years time to wonder what it may all mean, where does this lead? Subsequently in 2004 the Venus Transit occurred that guided me to return to the United Kingdom, to Glastonbury.

One Rainbow Bridge

You see it was on my 25th birthday I received the funds from my mother’s estate and initiated a global filmnomena called One Rainbow Bridge designed to assist us realising ‘unity consciousness’. I had been inspired to be at Stonehenge in the United Kingdom in order to activate the intention from where I was originally invited to Glastonbury by Daniel Hurring who went on to co-create the Sunrise Celebration.

Crystal Skulls

A year later in 2004 I returned feeling the mystery of the Mists of Avalon guiding me to return for the Venus Transit to discover a destiny with Crystal Skulls …

… long story short, this led me to the Rainbow Serpent Festival 2012

Via the Market Stage … to the Crystal Mandala.

I have collated some moments from the stage filmed by others, we must wait for resources to align to share more comprehensively and cohesively … this is a step toward including some other moments from the Extradimensional Space Agency.

Here are some other examples of environments created by the Extra Dimensional Space Agency …

If you are already on a crystal skulls journey, please take advantage of our meeting opportunities.

As soon as a quartz crystal has been carved into a skull shape, it becomes conscious and sentient.  At the same time it becomes functional as a new node of the earth’s crystalline grid.

Each crystal skull has its personalities and purposes. However, all crystal skulls have a common characteristic – they tend to enjoy meet and communicate with other crystal skulls.

Although other than the Piezoelectric effect, the actual mechanism is little known to human, such interactions between crystal skulls are being described as downloading, uploading or transmitting information.

The purpose of this group is to facilitate this form of communication.

Join us at: and RSVP for the next Event.

Check out People In Her Mind, taken from the forthcoming EP, below.

by White Elk Woman

White Elk Woman is a well-known and loved figure in crystal skull circles, so when I learned that she had produced a CD I was instantly smitten with the desire to own it. I attended a crystal skull conference she organised in 2010 and had the most amazing experiences there, and my hope was that some of this had been ‘bottled’ and served up in this CD. I was not disappointed.

The track titles are a mixture of self-explanatory and intriguing – Ancestors, Obelisk, Sacred Space, Abundance Island, Voyage of Discovery, 11:11 Transformation, Lotus Flower and The Blue Skull – and there is a mixture of styles as you listen to the album, too. The first track is a weighty amalgam of deep resonance and low-voiced non-verbal vocals to help get you into a contemplative mood. The second continues with the deep resonating sounds that get to work right in the centre of your chest, but add toning at a feminine level of pitch, albeit still not high. If you sat with your eyes closed and just listened to these tracks, you would be in the right place for the next one which, along with the addition of gong sounds and a sort of spacey, almost underwater echo, invites you to ‘release, allow, trust, power’.

You could listen to this album in a number of ways. You could sit and listen to a couple of tracks to help you unwind after a stressful day. You could use it as a meditation practice and listen to it all the way through or just pick a number of tracks to the required amount of time. You could put it on the iPod and listen to tracks at random, interspersed with other music. You could even play it while giving a Reiki session. In any of these contexts, you would receive a certain amount of benefit. The music enters not just through your ears but via your entire vibrational field, and I would not be surprised to learn that it has effects at levels you would barely be aware of.

This is the year, 2012, Mayan predictions, Long Count, Mass Solar Coronal Ejections, O Eh! those Cosmic Rays!!!!, End of Day……fret not, come to this event, The Mystery of the Bosnian Pyramids, to be enlightened……

Do these skulls hold the secret to survival in our new age of enlightenment?

Here we are, about to face our first Friday the 13th of the New Year so what better time to talk about the end of the world? That sure would be unlucky now, wouldn’t it?

The Mayan calendar comes to a close on December 21, 2012. According to some people, that marks the turning point for the world or at least mankind as we know it. Some funky things will be happening on that day. The sun will be aligned with the center of the Milky Way for the first time in about 26,000 years. Somehow that may trigger massive flooding or perhaps will steer an asteroid our way. If any of those major events happen, we are doomed. Just look what 3/4″ of an inch of snow did to St. Louis today.

And if you thought the presidential election was going to get milked by the media, just wait until that’s over with and they’re looking for something new to glom onto. End of the world? Hey, that’ll get some attention. Let’s send a crew off to the land of the Mayans – uh, where is that, exactly? (Guatemala, El Salvador, Belize, Honduras and parts of the Yucatan peninsula for those who were wondering.)

Or perhaps they’ll consider doing a feature on many of the survival groups throughout Europe, the U.S. and Canada who have been preparing for this day for years. Inquiring (and Enquiring) minds want to know: how exactly do you prepare for something like the end of the world? Store lots of bottled water and batteries?

I know some people have built bunkers, looking to hunker down and emerge on December 22 when civilization as we know it, no longer exists and they can emerge victorious, ready to carry on the human race and bring in a new era of consciousness. Their theme song, by R.E.M., with the refrain of “It’s the end of the world as we know it” will be blaring on their battery-powered devices as they venture forth into this strange new world.

Hopefully, they will have in their possession a few Mayan crystal skulls – believed to house a wealth of information about this new age. These skulls are believed to be that time’s equivalent of today’s modern day supercomputers. I don’t know if someone will be able to figure out how to make Facebook work on them, though. Of course, that will be the least of everyone’s worries. I just don’t know if the Mayans left enough info in those crystal skulls to guide us into our new, enlightened age.

We all are pretty reliant on air conditioning, electricity, modern transportation, microwaves and a host of other things we take for granted that may not be around 343 days from now. Of course, it could be that the Mayans just ran out of papyrus when they were making their calendar and didn’t get around to getting in a new shipment in order  to keep it going.

So I guess we need to continue on with our normal lives as if this year will be like any other. Still, if you’ve been thinking about that dream vacation, you might want to book your reservation and get ‘er done. And if your 401K has been tanking, reassure yourself – you probably won’t need it after all.

Have a great Friday!

Do these skulls hold the secret to survival in our new age of enlightenment?

On Januray 8, 2012 Mark Gerardi will appear at Leapin’ Lizards, 123 Main Street, in Freeport Maine, to offer a class on how to “Tune your Crystal Skull for Manifestation” from 2:00PM to 4:00PM. The workshop will consist of instruction in tuning your own Crystal Skull, activating and charging your Crystal Skull, scrying reflections, and using light, color, sound, and water immersion. He will also discuss the Legend of the 13 Crystal Skulls, and lead a powerful Crystal Skull Halo Meditation.
Mark has been working with the energy of Crystal skulls for a number of years. At the Legend of the 13 Crystal Skulls gathering on 10.10.10 in New York City his own skulls were charged in the presence of an amazing group of powerful ancient skulls including; Sha Na Ra, Synergy, Pancho, Amar, Madre, Zar, Rainbow and Einstein.
The cost for this amazing two-hour event is only $40.00 and you may register in advance online at http://www.LeapinLizards.biz or by calling them at (207) 865-0900.

SerRA’fana speaks to a gathering in the Chamber of the Crystal Skulls above the New EarthStar Island in Second Life

SerRA’fana Adu’RA (seraphina.kaur) :  I greet all of your gathered here today tenderly…extending to you my heart-light and offering a blessing that each one of you may find this day to be a treasure unfolding…for so is every day in LIFE…it is the coin under the pillow when you awake, left by the “Tooth Fairy” – often a blessing in disguise.

There is much attention in the metaphysical community on the “Crystal Skulls”…they enchant and draw many people for they represent…the hidden qualities of MIND…crystallized for all to see what may be more powerful to the Human SPIRIT but to peer inside the human skull and find LIGHT therein!  Understand that the SOURCE is a great Accommodation…Spirit will speak to you in whatever language you may best understand.

The Crystal Skulls of the Dwellers were left by the Star Beings – most eons ago on this Earth…they chose  this mean to most directly SPEAK to humans…through the form of the human skull. For these particular Star Beings are of the same ancestry…the Unimanity…they are part of your genetic gene pool…they are here to help you reach the new DNA vibration which they dwell within…yet also…they are preparing to go WITH YOU where neither you nor THEY have gone before!

And so the Dweller Skulls – 72 in all…and the many “seed skulls” on the Earth…which are those that mirror the Dwellers in some way…are liken unto living computers through which the Star Family may bring unity here on this earth and prepare all of its humanity for the NEXT stage…the NEW EARTH in World System II. Remember, World System I…where you now are aware of existing…is a base level for many dimensions of “earth”. When humanity and the planet “ascends” the base level will shift and become something very different in that…no longer will you have to age, die, feel pain, fuel the body…etc…it will be much more like the other dimensions of earth are now…yet much different also in that…IT WILL BE THE BASE LEVEL…this means no soul in the New Earth will have to experience reincarnating in order to progress on the path…they will simply shift frequency.

So now let us look again to the Dweller Crystal Skulls. Understand that all living things seek to be SEEN and KNOWN in their existence…that is to say…even the rose seeks to be known by the sun. The Star Beings who left their Skulls in crystal here as transducers and receptors and healers….they are saying to you…WE SHARE THE HUMAN FORM…the HUMAN SKULL…I SEE YOU AND SO YOU MAY SEE (and recognize) ME. Earth’s kind is still in the process of accepting their form, the nature, their experience as HUMAN beings. This process is important…it reveals the understanding of how you BECAME and what you will BECOME…for you will not be ready to leave this template behind (the human form) until a much higher stage within the New Earth. This means that you will carry the template of what it means to be “human” WITH you into the New Earth. This is why we refer to it as “Ascension” although  other words could also be applied.  Prior to the Grand Ascension…which will be the final movement of this on-going process…all 72 Dweller Crystal Skulls (and thus Illumined Beings) will inscribe their data (contained with the crystal skulls) into the New Earth frequency. They will do this through you…all of humanity…as that humanity reaches a certain critical point in self recognition of their TRUE Human Nature. It is this that will be the trigger, the impetus for the Dwellers who so long ago pledged to stay present with the Earth’s evolution. They will duplicate each of the Skulls into the New Earth and then…those upon this current realm will implode in light…this implosion will be part of the energy of Ascension.

Now if you feel that what I say here is too fanciful, remember that even a grain of sand is a might empire with amazing marvels with it! Humanity has largely been lulled to sleep by repetition of thought processes…I wake, I eat, I work, I love, I sleep…I wake again…even “love” is often a part of this role playing…it is only when a major event of emotional presence occurs in one’s life that LOVE comes out and reveals itself! Then one truly begins to live…and put away the love toys of childhood…for they pale by comparison. People who interact with crystal skulls (both the Dwellers and the seed skulls) often have deep experiences of Spirit…meaning LOVE comes out and says to them through those sockets of crystal…I SEE YOU…I AM ANOTHER YOU. Any yet one does not need to commune with a Crystal Skull to find LOVE unadorned before them…they simply need to open themselves and be willing to set aside all fear and sense of limitation…for the truest presence of love cannot come forth in fear or boundaries set by the mind. When you see a crystal skull refracting LIGHT like a living flame…you are intrinsically reminded that your skull does the same! It is filled with Light…your entire body is a cup of LIGHT.

It is important to take time each day to set aside even just a few moments to reflect on the LIGHT that you are. Especially when you are feeling limited, afraid or alone. LIGHT is never in fear…it is never in limitation and certainly it does not abide in loneliness.  It is EVERYWHERE and in EVERYONE and EVERYTHING and it is not neutral…yet it does not take sides…it is REFLECTIVE…it mirrors your TRUTH…what your soul REALLY knows…not what your emotions tell you it knows.  Emotions will always play their game…who is in power at the moment, speaks your emotions…what is the safest place to be or the safest thought to think??? Well that is where I will be…until something safer and more powerful comes along…and that I will move over THERE.  But the soul speaks to your heart and LIGHTS THE FIRE THEREIN…and that Flame is steady and sure and loving…it never strays from the greatest power…that of Spirit.

I will suggest an exercise…take some time each day to place your hands on your head…gently and with love….and move them over the outline of your entire skull…as you do so…feel the PRESENCE of the LIGHT therein…the sacred mergence of Higher Mind and biological brain working together…to recognize the beauty of the human body…its organization and complexity…carrying forth to take you where you need to go in the moment…the natural  soul or “Nephesh” will respond for it has been SEEN…it is the Natural soul or energy organizer of your “nature” that will stay behind when the body dies…and be here when your soul returns…having a “memory” of “you” to rebuild you a new body…but…when the body is Ascended into the New Earth, so the Natural Soul WILL be taken up as well…and transformed into a living state beyond the grave so to speak…it is then that “you” will never need to experience the casting off of a body…for the body will be super-luminal and close to the font…! Until that time my Dear Kindred know that even now…who you are in this moment and the sacred flesh you dwell within…it is HOLY and of divine origin…treat it with recognition and respect…and it will respond in kind. All of earth’s humanity share “body commonality”…you are one family in the DNA…and further every creature and microbe is the outer family to you…more kindred…not a thing apart.

I conclude today in requesting that you consider what I have spoken here in its most utter simplicity…that we are all ONE with every living thing….that LOVE  will never be contained by thought or emotion…and that your human experience is never alone…it is always shared on deep levels of commonality.

AND SO IT IS!

ANU KA ~ to all !

To experience a journey of Spirit with the Crystal Skulls: The 11th Gate of the Star video

As time went on I never thought about it. I knew there were times we would be studying things in school and I already knew about it or felt like I should know about it, but didn’t know why. It wasn’t until recently I started having dreams and visions about certain things. One of the ones that stands out the most is the fact that I started getting years stuck in my head and images of this building in my head, as well as started having dreams about being caught in a newspaper room while it burned. After doing some research I found that one of the years stuck in my head was the year of the Great Chicago fire, the other year was the year the newspaper building had been built. I also found the building I kept dreaming of was the newspaper building which had burned to the ground. The odd thing, ever since I was a child I have had an abnormal fear of fire. There’s been several more instances, but that’s the one that stands out.

That’s one thing about past lives… it is said that abnormal fears you may have or chronic ailments that are basically unexplained, may have something to do with a past life. For example, someone who has had a lot of neck problems over the years may have been beheaded in a past life. However, I believe that no matter how many past lives we have had, we only are supposed to realize the ones that there are still issues with. Kind of like past baggage we need to get rid of. While most never realize their past lives, it can be done through past life regression. However, I have been warned against this and that this is only good to do if you MUST know what a past life was and it is used for healing. I have not experienced past life regression, so I have no basis on how true that claim is.

My past lives started coming back to me after I got a crystal skull. Now, crystal skulls may seem creepy and unusual, but they are really quite interesting. However, that is a topic for a totally different post!

My interest went as far as wondering about the placid listener. Next I stood behind the women in a queue, waiting to pay. There had been a commotion. A crystal (glass) skull had broken into myriads of bits. Surreal, I thought, and became attentive to the scene.

This Crystal Skull can be found in the British Museum, apparent source: Mexico. It’s a fake, though the myth about Crystal Skulls is well alive, with some pertaining they were intended as a form of computer that records energy and vibration that occur around them …

A sales girl vacumed the carpet before the cashpoint. The delay seemed stressful to the classy woman. Her monologue stopped. Instead, she scrutinised the girl doing her cleaning dance, looking her up and down, eyes frequently coming to rest at her bottom, followed by a mien of displeasure and subtle head-shaking as if her sense of aesthetics was offended.

My interest increased. I had disliked my bottom when I was a teen. It turned pear-shaped whereas I wished it to be, oh I don’t know, apple-shaped. My parents didn’t give me this complex. I reasoned later the sudden break in my intensive sport activities eventuated the phase. So I stood there thinking, heck, there is nothing wrong with the girl’s bottom. The classy woman seemed to have very high standards of style, or irrational fears of imperfection. Modern dress sense being what it is I, too, catch myself gasping at wobbly bottoms revealed by leggings. But the bottom of the young woman was firm and unique.

The sales girl went about her job in a graceful and efficient manner. She seemed oblivious to the disapproving stares, though something must have registered, her movements became slightly awkward. And then it happened … she toppled a wire stand and hundreds of cellophane wrapped greeting cards slithered all over the floor. Dissonance – go figure.

Why am I sharing this incident? Apart from the cultural imperative of a perfect shape imposed on women, and perpetuated by women, involuntary labelling tends to shoot down everything that falls short of ideal means we hold up for ourselves, personally or socially. Unconscious mirroring, as useful as it is to the evolution of culture, also fixes attitudes and beliefs, disabling and limiting us.

Without the ability to self-reflect and challenge habitually thoughts, committed brain cells run the show below our awareness, especially when we feel stressed. The term, ‘mirror neurons’ may be new but the concept of reflection is well known, in that we are connected through what we hold in the mirror of our heart. I know, I know, it’s my pet subject. You find it hinted at throughout my site here.

Within the last decades technology produced a global mirror, you are looking into it now. And what a teaching it offers … every thought gains speed in a play of probabilities. Attitudes and beliefs lift beyond our backyard, they go viral at the push of a button, and, significantly, become visible. With awareness, we are not automatically compelled to react. We have a choice not to be hooked into projections, and a choice how to respond. It becomes clear that each one of us has an influence …
