TAKING TIME<br />
OUT<br />
Sue Penney<br />
In these times of mobile phones, emails, social media and<br />
the like, could the feeling of permanent availability actually<br />
harm us?<br />
Do you find it difficult to 'switch off'? Do you feel guilty<br />
for not getting back to people instantly or for limiting your<br />
availability? Does saying the word “No” fill you with<br />
anxiety or dread? Does it sometimes feel as if everyone<br />
wants a piece of you until you feel drained and exhausted?<br />
Feeling like this for a sustained period of time will fuel<br />
overwhelm and eventually lead to burnout.<br />
Remember that you are a<br />
human being and not a machine<br />
Just because someone else feels that their problem or<br />
need is urgent consider whether their issue is urgent to<br />
you at this moment in time before you leap into action?<br />
You deserve to be able to switch off and take time out and<br />
away from the constant demand on your time and energy.<br />
Whether work or family demands, everyone needs to have<br />
downtime, me time, where they unplug themselves from<br />
the chaos of this modern-day world to re-charge and heal<br />
themselves. Just because something is urgent to someone<br />
else, they also need to respect that unless you get your<br />
rest and relaxation you may not be there to sort out their<br />
next problem or issue. Remember that being kind and<br />
treating others as you would like to be treated also applies<br />
to how you treat yourself. So be kind to yourself.<br />
Here are some ideas for ‘me-time’:<br />
have a scented bubble bath<br />
go for a walk,<br />
listen to some music, or<br />
read a book,<br />
and do not feel guilty for giving something to yourself.<br />
By giving yourself this time, you are honouring yourself<br />
and allowing your body and mind to rest to become the<br />
very best version of yourself so that you are in a better<br />
position to take your place back in the chaotic modern<br />
world that we seem to have created.<br />

CELTIC MUSINGS<br />
Sue Penney<br />
This year Ostara is celebrated on 20th <strong>March</strong>. Spring is<br />
a time to set things in motion, to plan for the future. We<br />
sow in spring to reap later in the year. It is a time of<br />
fertility and new beginnings. Lambs are born and birds<br />
are building their nests and laying their eggs.<br />
Without looking after ourselves, by eating<br />
properly, getting enough rest and exercise<br />
we will end up being unable to carry out the<br />
duties and tasks that we are driven to<br />
undertake.<br />
Ostara is a sun festival. It is a time to honour the<br />
renewed warmth of the sun and the increased light that<br />
longer days bring us. It is also a celebration that the<br />
earth is awakening again. The themes of this festival are<br />
based on renewal, rebirth, and balance.<br />
Is your life balanced or does this need to be realigned?<br />
With our busy lives we often lose sight of what is<br />
actually important to us and the balance can swing in<br />
favour of duty and tasks rather than what feeds our<br />
souls.<br />
So, stop.<br />
1. If you just have five minutes take some<br />
time to list some of the things that you<br />
want to do, just for you.<br />
2. Get up and make yourself a drink.<br />
Keeping hydrated will help keep your<br />
head clear too. Your brain needs water.<br />
3. If you have 10 minutes, then why not do<br />
a short meditation if you have a quiet<br />
place to do this or wear some<br />
headphones. If there is no noise-free<br />
private space, take some time out to do<br />
some colouring in of a mandala. You can<br />
buy adult colouring books or even print<br />
images off the internet. This is<br />
wonderfully relaxing.<br />
4. Tidy your workspace. It is amazing just<br />
how much difference it makes working in<br />
a tidy space. Cleaning is always a great<br />
occupation for stilling your mind too.<br />
5. If you have 15 minutes, go for a walk,<br />
even if it is just around the block. The<br />
change of scenery and fresh air will help<br />
to switch off your mind for a while.<br />
6. If you have half an hour or longer, run<br />
yourself a bath, just simply relax with<br />
your eyes closed. You could make it a<br />
special ritual, by lighting a lovely candle<br />
or two, lighting an incense stick, setting<br />
an intention to renew your energy and<br />
perhaps even listening to a meditation.<br />
6
Seed Magic<br />
Planting seeds is a lovely way to celebrate the earths<br />
abundance and fertility. Watching the little seedlings<br />
grow is rewarding too. You can also incorporate your<br />
own personalised seed magic as you do so.<br />
Remember, just visualising on its own will<br />
not make your goal happen. You have to take<br />
action towards achieving your goal too.<br />
1. Before you plant your seeds, hold them in your hand<br />
and think clearly about a goal that you want to<br />
achieve this year. Visualise it clearly in your mind<br />
looking at it through your own eyes as if you had<br />
already achieved it. Say it out loud in the positive<br />
present tense, as if you had achieved it already. For<br />
example: I am so happy that I have my new job<br />
earning £x a year.<br />
2. Plant the seeds carefully, visualising the flowers<br />
growing as you make the steps towards achieving<br />
your goal. For example, filling out the job application,<br />
attending the interview, getting the letter offering<br />
you the job etc.<br />
3. Whenever you water the seeds, imagine yourself<br />
achieving your goal.<br />
4. By the time your flowers are fully grown you should<br />
have achieved your goal.<br />

MEMORIES OF SOUND<br />
John Sjovik<br />
A friend of mine was born in 1928. She grew up in a<br />
seaside town on the south coast of Sweden. She often<br />
tells me about memories from her childhood in the<br />
1930s. One particular memory is related to sound.<br />
At the time, there was traditional fishing of eel in the<br />
waters along the coastline. The fishermen would drive<br />
wooden poles into the shallow seabed near the beach<br />
and fix platforms to them. Fishermen would stand on<br />
the platforms and shine a light to attract eels and then<br />
use a fish-fork to stab them and pull them up. In later<br />
years, that fishing method was deemed unethical and<br />
was duly banned. However, in the 1930s the tradition<br />
was still very much alive and the steady sound of the<br />
wooden poles being pounded into the seabed travelled<br />
wide and far. My friend clearly remembers the boom,<br />
boom, boom noise that advised her young ears that eel<br />
fishing was about to begin. It meant that the weather<br />
was expected to be calm for the next few days since<br />
that fishing method could not be practised in rough<br />
winds. That particular sound is not only archaic but<br />
completely extinct since 1954, when that fishing<br />
practice was banned. It will soon be completely<br />
forgotten when my friend’s life comes to an end and she<br />
and other people of her generation will no longer be<br />
around to tell us about it.<br />
As for me, I have a very dear and iconic<br />
memory from the 1960s. At the time,<br />
Gothenburg was still an important port, with<br />
lots of cargo ships arriving with goods from<br />
all over the world. By the turn of each year,<br />
there were always ships staying in port for a<br />
few days. On New Year’s Eve, many of those<br />
ships would sound their fog horns when the<br />
clock struck midnight and a new year was<br />
born. My father always opened the window<br />
in our living room and we stood together,<br />
listening to the wall of sound from a great<br />
number of powerful foghorns celebrating the<br />
arrival of the New Year.<br />
There is energy in memories. There is energy<br />
in sound. I fully believe that the sound of eel<br />
fishing lingers by the south coast and the<br />
echo of ships’ fog horns still echo in<br />
Gothenburg. You just need to know how to<br />
listen. A memory of a sound that you loved<br />
and cherished can be very soothing. You can<br />
use it as a trigger to bring back a feeling of<br />
joy from happy times in the past. When my<br />
elderly friend tells me about the sound of<br />
preparation for fishing eel, she always smiles.<br />
Every New Year, I think of the fog horns<br />
sounding all over Gothenburg more than fifty<br />
years ago and my father telling me about his<br />
adventures at sea as a young sailor.<br />
Do you have any memories of sound? Think<br />
about it.<br />

DAYDREAMING<br />
Nasreen Pritchard<br />
Bring back the daydreamer!<br />
I often think of the young me, who daydreamed on the bus to<br />
and from school. Who loved the GCSE Art room for its time<br />
warp effect that lent its hand to creativity. Oh, the hours spent,<br />
lovingly lost in an A3 art book.<br />
I remember the girl who long before she began a Meditation<br />
journey, simply closed her eyes, and just wandered…<br />
Of course, there is a lot to be seen when we close our eyes. It<br />
can be WONDERfull!<br />
I am still that girl really. I often dream awake.<br />
Nowadays it may look a little different. Its sitting in the garden<br />
with the sun on my face. It’s my walk to work or just lying on the<br />
sofa staring at the ceiling with the dog by my side.<br />
Daydream,<br />
imagine, and<br />
reflect. It’s the<br />
source of infinite<br />
creativity.<br />
~ Deepak Chopra<br />

<strong>Alchemical</strong> <strong>Voice</strong> - L2M Issue 19<br />
I am not talking about reliving events or getting trapped in a<br />
worry loop. If this happens then we should bring ourselves back<br />
to a positive image and feel into that.<br />
It is also not to ‘get away’ from things. If anything, it is to<br />
connect us to ourselves more and maybe to what we’d like our<br />
reality to look and feel like.<br />
True Daydreaming is a gift. An opportunity for Insight.<br />
Visualization is<br />
daydreaming<br />
with a purpose.<br />
~ Bo Bennett<br />
After all, what is a Vision Board without a Daydream first…<br />
If we can imagine it, see it in our minds eye and maybe feel it<br />
there too… then surely, as we well know, we can manifest our<br />
dreams into reality.<br />
We are often encouraged to start our day with gratitude or<br />
some self-reflection time and journaling. It sets a ‘tone’ for the<br />
day. Well, what if we could ‘dream’ the day into being? What if<br />
every day had a little vision board of its own. It doesn’t have to<br />
be huge or anything grand. Just a flavour maybe. This isn’t to<br />
say that everything will go as planned or that there won’t be<br />
some challenges. But it makes sense to invite Intention and<br />
vision into our day.<br />
To Imagine our day ahead.<br />
Logic will get you<br />
from A to B.<br />
Imagination will<br />
take you<br />
everywhere.<br />
~ Albert Einstein<br />

<strong>Alchemical</strong> <strong>Voice</strong> - L2M Issue 19<br />
Of course, Daydreaming has had a bad rep. It is rare that<br />
‘daydreamer’ is used in a positive context… BUT the science is<br />
out!!<br />
Daydreams can be a form of self-discovery. Helping us think<br />
positively, build self-esteem, understand conflict, and help with<br />
communication and healthy relationships.<br />
Studies have found that Daydreaming has multiple positive<br />
effects on our life.<br />
Nothing happens<br />
unless first a<br />
dream.<br />
~ Carl Sandburg<br />
Lowers stress levels and contributes to better sleep patterns<br />
Improves working memory and Increases creativity AND<br />
productivity.<br />
Opens up space for our ‘Aha’ moments<br />
And most beautifully, Increases empathy and our capacity<br />
for compassion and love.<br />
….Imagine just spending a short time daydreaming to put<br />
ourselves in someone else’s shoes, giving ourselves opportunity<br />
to feel connection and more understanding for others.<br />
Daydreaming can be the source of a new idea. An answer you<br />
were looking for. A poem. A release. A realisation.<br />

Before words, before visual representation, before the next<br />
music score… there is a daydream.<br />
A space.<br />
A beautiful space where something can grow.<br />
An explorative state of mind where we are free and safe to<br />
Imagine.<br />
An elegant practice that connects us to our very own soul and to<br />
each other.<br />
So, what do you say?<br />
Can we bring back the Daydreamer…<br />
I am and I hope you will too.<br />

MANIFESTING<br />
WITH CRYSTALS<br />
Sue Penney<br />
Spring the time of fertility and growth – the best time to work on<br />
achieving your goals and manifesting the things that you want in<br />
your life.<br />
THE BEST CRYSTALS FOR MANIFESTING<br />
There are lots of different types of crystals that we can use to help<br />
us manifest the things that we desire, depending upon what it is that<br />
we are looking to bring forth into our lives. Here is a quick guide to<br />
help you to choose the right crystal and some ways of using crystals<br />
to aid with manifestation.<br />
LOVE<br />
Rose quartz – it has to be, doesn’t it? The gentle, beautiful energy of<br />
this pretty pink stone radiates pure love and helps to calm your heart<br />
and soul. Whether you are looking to attract love into your life or<br />
simply needing help with self-love. This beautiful crystal will never<br />
fail to assist, its love is completely unconditional.<br />
Pink Topaz – this is the crystal you need to attract your soulmate. It<br />
promotes better listening and understanding and encourages<br />
unconditional love and friendship.<br />
Rhodonite – this is the stone for compassion. It clears away the old<br />
emotional baggage from the past and nurtures the soul. It is<br />
grounding and balancing and activates the heart.<br />

Issue 19<br />
HEALTH<br />
Quartz - The universal master healer, clear<br />
quartz is the only crystal that can be<br />
programmed to act in the way of any<br />
other stone that you may require but do<br />
not have. It will also send its healing<br />
energy to the source of the ailment and<br />
where it is needed most.<br />
MONEY/SUCCESS<br />
Green Adventure – Known as the stone<br />
of opportunity, this crystal will work for<br />
you making you aware of steps you can<br />
take to achieve your goals that you have<br />
otherwise missed. It soothes your energy,<br />
transcending stress to a place of calm<br />
helping you to see, act and think more<br />
clearly.<br />
Pyrite – This crystal is a fabulous<br />
protection stone, but it is also ideal for<br />
manifesting abundance, helping to attract<br />
wealth into your world. It also helps to<br />
break through your self-limiting beliefs to<br />
assist you in being able to take the<br />
necessary steps towards achieving your<br />
goals.<br />
HOW TO USE CRYSTALS<br />
FOR MANIFESTING<br />
Intention-setting – hold the crystal in<br />
your hand while you focus on having<br />
achieved your goal. Close your eyes and<br />
feel the shape and weight of the crystal as<br />
you do so.<br />
Wearing them – once you have help the<br />
crystal whilst setting your intent, you can<br />
then wear the crystal on your person, put<br />
it in a small bag around your neck, put it in<br />
your pocket or, ladies, you can wear it in<br />
your bra.<br />
Placing them in your home – put the<br />
crystal where you will see it every day,<br />

you could place it on a window sill or<br />
place it under your pillow.

Meditating with them – One step up from using them to<br />
set your intent, you can hold the crystal in your hand<br />
whilst doing a meditation. This will help to acquaint<br />
yourself more deeply with the crystal and incorporate<br />
more of its energy into your own body.<br />
Using them in rituals – Most of the rituals that I do, and<br />
have written about in this magazine, incorporate one or<br />
more crystals. I find that choosing the crystal with the<br />
right energy enhances any ritual that I am doing 10-fold.<br />
Cleanse your crystals - It really is so important to<br />
cleanse the crystals that you are using regularly. They<br />
absorb all of the nasty negative energies that are floating<br />
around in our lives. Cleansing your crystals will remove<br />
any blocked or negative energy and should be done<br />
regularly to ensure that they are at their most pure and<br />
effective.<br />
You can cleanse your crystals by any of the following<br />
methods. Just pick the one that calls to you. It will be the<br />
right one.<br />

ELEMENTAL MAGIC<br />
Jeanne Witt<br />
I remember when I was about six, I stayed in the middle of<br />
the countryside surrounded by corn fields in my aunt's old<br />
cottage, so old we had to pump water from the well in the<br />
front garden! On one of my summer visits, my aunt took me<br />
to the next hamlet to see a male witch, to remove warts,<br />
that covered both my hands. I have never forgotten it, but<br />
now I use magic, of a kind, with my work. It started with<br />
using tissues, to transfer the healing energy into which<br />
could be placed into my son's trainers to remove his<br />
verrucas, which worked when all else failed! These tissues<br />
could also be placed under pillows for healing during the<br />
night and inside pet's bedding, My healing was developing<br />
with my guides stronger and stronger.<br />
We were lucky to have a holiday home in a remote and<br />
lovely part of Somerset. It was by the sea, with a natural<br />
waterfall cascading onto the beach, surrounded by wild,<br />
natural, ancient woodland. As lovely as it was, for me it<br />
became, not so lovely! The spirit of the Grey Lady, from the<br />
big house nearby, was following me everywhere. I had<br />
constant nightmares of being hunted down by groups of<br />
people from the ancient harbour around the next bay, with<br />
burning torches, accusing me of witchcraft. I started to see<br />
several of my past lives as a witch, living in Somerset. This<br />
all hung over me, even when I returned home and went<br />
back to work, it was like a very dark shadow that was<br />
growing darker and darker, the more I stayed in Somerset.<br />
Again in Somerset, taps turned on by themselves, and the<br />
smoke alarm would start by itself if I sat underneath it, but<br />
this time I understood it was me. After what had happened<br />
in my home I understood more about myself, and what my<br />
energy attracted.<br />
One evening in 2009, whilst walking our dogs in the woods<br />
in Somerset, I saw a beautiful small green light by a row of<br />
three big old oak trees. As I looked, it was a small being, a<br />
green cloaked man holding a staff. He was so clear, but<br />
again, my husband saw nothing. This time however, I<br />
trusted what I could see. Once home, I wrote to Jenny<br />
Smedley, the angel expert from the magazine Soul & Spirit,<br />
about my experience. To my delight, my email with an<br />
answer, was published! Her advice, and future events with<br />
my healing, was correct.<br />
22
Since my elemental vision in 2009, my healing completely changed. I started to receive the essence<br />
of tree parts in my hands for the relevant ailments, or conditions, that a client had come to see me<br />
about. All the details matched and were correct when I researched afterwards. What was<br />
happening? I wasn't sure at that time.<br />
Next, the water element came flowing into my life. I had spent many hours alone on the beach in all<br />
seasons, sitting by the waterfall and just being at one with this natural beach. After a weekend away<br />
in November, I started to paint pictures, one after the other, until I stopped at twenty two! They<br />
were all female, some had fish around them, and as I looked into their eyes, I was told they were<br />
mermaids.<br />
It's such an incredible story I experienced with the water elementals, (my blog has all the details).<br />
During their presence, I trained as a crystal therapist and learnt about Reiki, the ancient art of<br />
seashell healing, and more. I'd worked in a school for years and trained as a child counsellor using<br />
the arts. I found the shells and water element particularly successful with autistic children.<br />
I became deeply involved in nature and nature spirits, and I felt very strongly that I had worked this<br />
way before, especially since 2009. I learnt about Wicca but developed my own way of connecting.<br />
My Indian guide "Running Wolf", became stronger and stronger. I have seen fairies in the house, tiny<br />
lights and orbs fluttering with stunning deep purple and blue colours. I sometimes see past life<br />
traumas and events. One of which where a limb, a leg, floated in to be reconnected with my client at<br />
the time.<br />
Now, finally some thirteen years later, (my favourite number) working with the trees, I fully<br />
understand the reason for the bedroom full of dried tree leaves. They were Alder tree leaves, which<br />
once dried were used to be placed inside bedding, to help sufferers with arthritis and painful feet.<br />
My husband, at that time, was just diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis at such a young age, and<br />
he does now suffer from painful feet! The leaves were a gift from the earth's elementals, for me to<br />
heal my husband.<br />
I have learned to work with my house, instead of against it, and I have been healing here for nearly<br />
thirty years now!!<br />
It's latest gift for me this year was ectoplasm on one of the walls, which again helped me. I have<br />
started to see really bright colourful auras when walking our dog..... my journey continues, and I feel<br />
my spiritual journey is not over yet. Not for me, in this HOUSE!<br />

DIVINE FEMININE<br />
Julie de Vere Hunt<br />
Why is Mary Magdalene an<br />
Ambassador to the Divine<br />
Feminine?<br />
The Divine Feminine is an energy that<br />
has been with us since ancient times.<br />
Human consciousness is basically<br />
divided into the ‘masculine’ and the<br />
‘feminine’ sides – we need both to<br />
achieve our highest potential.<br />
The Feminine represents the<br />
connection to the part of our<br />
consciousness responsible for nurture,<br />
intuition, and empathy, irrespective of<br />
gender.<br />
It is the aspect of the self associated<br />
with creation, intuition, community,<br />
sensuality, and collaboration.<br />
The Masculine brings insight,<br />
understanding, awareness, direction<br />
attaining goals, and carrying out the<br />
Divine plan. The Divine aspect is a<br />
connection with a higher source, or<br />
God, through your heart.<br />
We have recently moved from the Age<br />
of Pisces into the Age of Aquarius. The<br />
Age of Aquarius is associated with<br />
democracy, freedom, humanitarianism,<br />
idealism and philanthropy.<br />
More specifically, the age of equality<br />
between the Masculine and the<br />
Feminine.<br />
The Age of Aquarius is causing great<br />
turmoil around us as everything<br />
associated with Piscean values is<br />
unravelling; governments, corporations,<br />
and even personal relationships. The<br />
world appears chaotic...<br />
Fortunately, we are not alone... We are<br />
being assisted by ascended masters and<br />
mistresses...<br />
We need to reclaim the<br />
Divine Feminine within us<br />
both for our own spirituality<br />
and for the well-being of our<br />
planet.<br />
Many times before the world has been<br />
through an ecological crisis, and<br />
Mother Earth carries within her the<br />
memories and wisdom we need.<br />
But we need to listen..<br />
It is a state of awareness that is<br />
connected to the wisdom of the heart,<br />
to natural and divine laws, and to a<br />
loving, harmonious, and peaceful life.<br />
24
But how can we<br />
do this in our<br />
everyday lives?<br />
<br />
Feel your feelings<br />
To fully access Divine Feminine<br />
energy we need to fully feel and<br />
release our feelings without<br />
judgement. Our instinct is to run<br />
away from painful feelings - but they<br />
tend to follow you!<br />
Trust your intuition<br />
Intuition is a gift of the Divine<br />
Feminine. Intuitive impulses come<br />
from the heart, not the mind. They<br />
are often accompanied by signs and<br />
synchronicities in the outside world,<br />
so keep all six senses open to<br />
receive!<br />
Listen to your body<br />
The body knows before the mind<br />
what and who is toxic for you.<br />
Listen to your inner voice<br />
Creating regular times of quiet and<br />
meditation activates Divine Feminine<br />
energy. Our technological advances<br />
have encouraged us to seek answers<br />
from the outside – google, YouTube<br />
etc. We need to go back inside.<br />
Be positive, active and creative<br />
Neuroscience has shown that what we<br />
focus on grows. Focus on the positive<br />
aspects of your life and those of your<br />
colleagues, friends, and family. You will<br />
be amazed how it changes<br />
relationships.<br />
If we change our internal landscape the<br />
outer one will change also.. Synergistic<br />
efforts of the individual will change<br />
collective consciousness.<br />
So what does this have to do<br />
with Mary Magdalene?<br />
Mary Magdalene exemplifies the<br />
Divine Feminine and has been called to<br />
assist us to support this process, the<br />
merging of the opposites, the Divine<br />
Feminine (receiver of Divine<br />
inspiration) alongside the Divine<br />
Masculine (acting out the Divine plan in<br />
the world).<br />
According to the Gnostic gospel, The<br />
Dialogue of the Saviour, Yeshua called<br />
Mary Magdalene ‘The Woman who<br />
knew the All’.<br />
After Yeshua was crucified, she was<br />
steadfast in her faith and comforted<br />
the Apostles. Her spiritual connection<br />
with Yeshua continued beyond his<br />
‘death’, she started an egalitarian<br />
community where she wrote down his<br />
teachings.<br />
She dedicated the rest of her life to<br />
teaching ‘The Way of the Heart’, first in<br />
Egypt and then France.<br />
She has waited almost 2000 years for<br />
us to be sufficiently spiritually evolved<br />
to be able to receive Yeshua’s<br />
teachings.<br />
Now is the time to recognise this<br />
woman for what she was – a true<br />
ambassador to the Divine Feminine.<br />

VARIATIONS ON A THEME<br />
Martin Lewis, West Berkshire Kinesiology<br />
'Variations on a Theme' is 22mins long piece<br />
of music that works on your 11th chakra -<br />
Pathwork to the Soul.<br />
The eleventh chakra is your ability to<br />
acquire advanced spiritual skills (travel<br />
beyond the limits of time and space,<br />
teleportation, bi-location, instantaneous<br />
precipitation of thoughts and telekinesis).<br />
The eleventh chakra is the spiritual library<br />
of the individual, containing all that he or<br />
she will need to operate as a divine human<br />
being. Work on this chakra is much like a<br />
librarian in a library, putting things in order<br />
but not changing anything that is found.<br />

THE TRUTH<br />
Julie de Vere Hunt<br />
You may be wondering how I got involved with the<br />
Andromedeans?<br />
Trust me, I wasn’t looking for them…<br />
They came into my life when I started writing about Mary<br />
Magdalene in 2018.<br />
A series of synchronistic events led me to research and<br />
write three books on Mary Magdalene (see<br />
www.marymagdaleneslegacy.com )<br />
I was seeking the Universal Truth and in the process<br />
working on my HSD.<br />
A Kinesiologist has tested the Level of Truth of ‘Mary<br />
Magdalene’s Legacy’ and ‘Mary Magdalene’s Final Legacy’<br />
on Hawkin’s scale and they both score +700.<br />
Well, the Andromedeans didn’t like this at all… Fortunately,<br />
I saw the Kinesiologist regularly, who was able to rebalance<br />
me and protect me with symbols, affirmations, crystals,<br />
mudras, acupressure and nutritional support.<br />
I have kept notes on all my sessions over the last five years<br />
and there really is a book behind the three books! If the<br />
series of events hadn’t actually happened to me I would<br />
struggle to believe it! So I can understand a reader’s<br />
scepticism.<br />
I discovered the Gnostics when I was researching the first<br />
book, ‘Apostle to Mary Magdalene’ and I have been<br />
studying them for the last three years. They are available to<br />
read free online at www.gnosis.org.<br />
An earthenware jar containing 13 papyrus books bound in<br />
leather was discovered in the Egyptian desert by three Arab<br />
peasants in 1945.<br />
Written in Coptic (ancient Egyptian) they would<br />
become known as the codices of the Nag<br />
Hammadi Library, a collection of early Christian<br />
and Gnostic texts.<br />
The Nag Hammadi texts, and others like them,<br />
were denounced as heresy by orthodox<br />
Christians in the middle of the second century.<br />
Possession of such books was made a criminal<br />
offence and copies of such books were burned<br />
and destroyed. It is thought the Nag Hammadi<br />
texts were buried by monks from a nearby<br />
monastery in the 4th century.<br />
These texts range from secret gospels, poems<br />
and descriptions of the origin of the universe, to<br />
myths, magic and instructions for mystical<br />
practice.<br />
28
The most well-known texts are the<br />
Gospel of Thomas, the Gospel of Philip,<br />
and the Secret Book of John.<br />
There are frequent references to Mary<br />
Magdalene; in the Dialogue of the<br />
Saviour Jesus calls Mary “the woman<br />
who knew the All.”<br />
<br />
Saviour Jesus calls<br />
Mary “the woman<br />
who knew the All.”<br />
<br />
The Gospel of Mary was found earlier<br />
than and therefore not part of the Nag<br />
Hammadi Library, discovered in 1896<br />
near Achmim.<br />
In this text Mary Magdalene is<br />
portrayed as an enlightened spiritual<br />
leader who was the embodiment of<br />
Wisdom and the Sacred Feminine, as<br />
well as a conduit for the secret<br />
teachings of Jesus. Sadly, only eight<br />
pages of the ‘Gospel of Mary’ have<br />
survived, as pages 1-6 and 11-14 are<br />
missing, but we still see a very different<br />
picture of Mary Magdalene than than<br />
portrayed by the New Testament.<br />
It represents a radical interpretation of<br />
Yeshua’s teachings as a path to inner<br />
spiritual knowledge and challenges our<br />
romantic view of harmony within the first<br />
Christian groups.<br />
More significantly, we see Mary<br />
Magdalene not as a weeping submissive<br />
woman, but a strong, stable spiritual<br />
leader who, because of her understanding<br />
was privy to Yeshua’s teachings. As the<br />
first six pages are missing, the gospel<br />
opens in the middle of a post- resurrection<br />
appearance by Yeshua (referred to as the<br />
Saviour) to his disciples in which he<br />
answers their questions and offers a<br />
farewell discourse before commissioning<br />
them to go out to preach the gospel of the<br />
kingdom.<br />
But the disciples do not go out joyfully to<br />
preach the gospel; instead controversy<br />
erupts. All the disciples except Mary have<br />
failed to understand the Saviour’s<br />
teachings. Inner peace is nowhere to be<br />
found – they are distraught and frightened<br />
that preaching the gospel may result in<br />
them suffering the same agonizing fate.<br />
Mary steps in and comforts them and Peter<br />
asks Mary to recount teaching unknown to<br />
them that she had received in a vision. She<br />
agrees and tells them about the rise of the<br />
soul past the powers of Darkness, Ignorance,<br />
Desire and Wrath, who seek to keep the<br />
soul trapped in the world and ignorant of its<br />
true spiritual nature.<br />
When she is finished, she stands in silence,<br />
imitating the soul at rest. But the peace is<br />
disturbed by Andrew questioning the<br />
‘strangeness’ of her teaching. Peter<br />
challenges whether Yeshua would give<br />
private instruction to a woman, thus<br />
showing he actually preferred her to the<br />
other disciples.<br />
Mary begins to cry at Peter’s accusation.<br />
Levi comes quickly to her defence,<br />
reminding Peter he is a notorious hot-head<br />
and now he was treating Mary as the enemy.<br />
He admonishes them instead to do as the<br />
Saviour instructed them and go out to<br />
preach the gospel. The story ends here but<br />
the controversy is far from over. Andrew<br />
and Peter have not understood the Saviour’s<br />
teaching and are offended by Yeshua’s<br />
apparent preference of a woman over them.<br />
The Kinesiologist tested me in<br />
his clinic and it appears that<br />
Peter (and his brother James)<br />
were Andromedeans – this<br />
explains his problem with<br />
Mary Magdalene. Remember<br />
the A’s have been around<br />
since 9,000 BC so it is hardly<br />
surprising!<br />
Peter becomes the head of the<br />
Orthodox Church as Bishop of<br />
Rome. But it was the Romans<br />
who changed the face of<br />
Christianity – one man had a<br />
particular influence at the<br />
Council of Nicea in 325 –<br />
Emperor Constantine. Guess<br />
what? – all Romans were<br />
Andromedeans.<br />
The Andromedeans want to<br />
suppress the divine feminine;<br />
Peter founded the church and<br />
it became patriarchal.<br />

Transformational Life Coach<br />
A MESSAGE FROM THE ANGELS<br />
In asking the Angels what they want me to write. I was guided to draw these cards from the Angels of<br />
Abundance deck of oracle cards.<br />
God is your Source<br />
Whether you call Source, God, Infinite intelligence, the<br />
Universe – this highlights that everything is supplied by the<br />
Infinite. There is no lack, but plenty for all to share.<br />
When you worry about where your income is to come from,<br />
you are blocking your flow of abundance. Focus on the Infinite.<br />
Tell God whatever is worrying you and hand it over. You can<br />
ask Archangel Sandalphon to help here as he is the Archangel<br />
who takes our prayers/requests to God. Remember all prayers<br />
are answered.<br />
. . . This leads to the next card<br />
Gratitude List<br />
Feeling gratitude for what you already have helps you keep<br />
centred in your heart rather than the worries of your mind. If<br />
you are worrying the negative energies will attract more<br />
problems.<br />
By focusing on the positives in your life, the Universe will take<br />
note and you will attract more of what you are grateful for.<br />
Perhaps you could create a gratitude list daily, or name five<br />
things you are most grateful for as you go to sleep. It is all<br />
positive energy.<br />
30
It is Safe for you to Receive<br />
Are you keeping your heart open and allowing yourself to<br />
receive? If you are focused on your worries, then you are<br />
blocking yourself from the flow of abundance. Once you have<br />
asked/prayed then know your prayers will be answered. Do<br />
not worry about the “how“, leave that to God.<br />
There are many ways that God can answer our prayers for<br />
the best for everyone involved. So often we assume as<br />
humans, we know best but obviously do not see the whole<br />
picture.<br />
This card suggests “let go and let God“ and so we signal our<br />
trust in our Divine Creator. We will be open to receive and<br />
showered with bountiful gifts and blessings.<br />
Deservingness<br />
This is a reminder that you “deserve“ abundance in your life.<br />
The Angels want you to know that you are a unique child of<br />
God and will be provided for. The Universe and Angels do<br />
not provide us with wealth to just hoard in our bank<br />
accounts, but to use to support ourselves while we work on<br />
our life purpose. Many people feel trapped in employment<br />
they do not enjoy.<br />
This card enables you to affirm you deserve to receive<br />
abundance, as you will use it for yourself and the greater<br />
good.<br />
Affirm to yourself that you are worthy of the same goodness<br />
and opportunities as everyone else, and this releases the<br />
feelings of undeservingness. Acknowledging the abundance<br />
you have will realign your energy to receive blessings in your<br />
current situation (this works with the gratitude list).<br />
So if you put all these together, know that the Infinite is<br />
your Source, and ask Source for help. Focus on what you are<br />
grateful for and you will attract more of the same. Be ready<br />
to receive it, in whatever form and know that you are<br />
worthy to receive it.<br />
31
In four affirmations:<br />
I trust Source<br />
I am Grateful<br />
I Receive with thanks<br />
I am Worthy and Deserve abundance<br />
Your Angels, Archangels are always with you, giving you loving<br />
guidance.<br />
If you want further help/support in transforming your thinking/life<br />
then contact me. Love and blessings from the Angels.<br />

WHO ARE YOU<br />
John Sjovik<br />
With water dripping from my chin, I raised my<br />
newly washed face from the sink and met my<br />
own reflection in the bathroom mirror. I heard<br />
myself ask the question “Who on Earth are you,<br />
John?”<br />
Disregarding the cheesy style of that<br />
introduction, this is actually an important<br />
question.<br />
“Who are you?” is a question whose answer can<br />
be pursued on many levels. If you repeat it to<br />
yourself time and time again, you have to dig<br />
ever deeper within your subconscious and even<br />
unconscious. Your answers will shift from the<br />
physical to the metaphysical, from the common<br />
to the esoteric. Who you are is much more<br />
profound than what meets the eye and what<br />
first (or even second) impression you give.<br />
There are many theories and studies about The<br />
Ego, the Id, and other variations of “who you<br />
are”. If you do a search on those concepts you<br />
will find theories by such icons as Sigmund<br />
Freud and Carl Jung. Eastern religions and<br />
philosophies talk about Ego and even Ego Death.<br />
The idea of who you are, how you relate to<br />
other people, and indeed how you relate to<br />
yourself has fascinated people since the<br />
beginning of time.<br />
Different roles<br />
I have always been intrigued by the different roles we play. Imagine being in a job interview and you are<br />
asked to talk a little about yourself. Then imagine being on a date and you are asked the same thing. The<br />
answers you give will be completely different. Or at least I hope so! Yet, they relate to the one and same<br />
individual.<br />
We are our bodies, our minds, our egos, our dreams and wishes. We are the aspects of our spirits, the<br />
shadows we cast on a wall. We are the creator of footsteps, yet we often walk in those made by others.<br />
36
We are parents and grandparents. We are husbands, wives and partners. We are children, siblings<br />
and cousins. We are friends, team-mates and colleagues. And we are just ourselves. Yet, that last<br />
role is often forgotten even though it may well be the most important of all.<br />
I firmly believe that losing focus on yourself, not paying attention to the human being you inhabit or<br />
setting aside time just for you can cause loneliness, depression and even illness. It is not about being a<br />
narcissist but to acknowledge that you have value in your own right. Your value is not depending on<br />
your job title, the family you belong to or what friends you have.<br />
37
Yet, unless you live on a deserted island, you<br />
will belong to some kind of community,<br />
surrounded by other people, your family,<br />
neighbours and strangers. There will be a set of<br />
rules and regulations, of habits and expected<br />
behaviour. As a consequence, people will have<br />
an opinion of you, of who you are.<br />
In some personality tests, there are often<br />
versions of these two questions: 'How do you<br />
see yourself?' and 'How do you think other<br />
people see you?' The perception of the self is<br />
of great interest and importance to many<br />
people, particularly in Western society.<br />
The understanding of who you are is partly an<br />
aspect of culture. Many years ago, I moved<br />
overseas for work.<br />
Shortly after arrival, I joined a workshop on<br />
Cultural Awareness.<br />
I was amazed by the difference between my<br />
own cultural background and the one I was<br />
going to live in the coming years, especially<br />
concerning the relation between the self and the<br />
group.<br />
The understanding of who you are and indeed<br />
the answer to the question in the title of this<br />
article can vary quite considerably from one<br />
cultural setting to another. It is important to<br />
understand that, especially when you spend time<br />
with people who are steeped in cultures<br />
different from your own.<br />
In some cultures, the individual is placed in the<br />
centre and all other people and groups are<br />
around that focal point. In other cultures, the<br />
positions can be quite different, with family,<br />
tribe or community in the centre and the<br />
individual on the outside. The multicultural<br />
aspect of the global community is an advantage<br />
but can also be a challenge. It requires humility,<br />
respect and understanding.
You as a verb<br />
Try different emphasis on the words. There is a<br />
difference between 'WHO are you?', 'who ARE<br />
you?' and 'who are YOU?' Play with those three<br />
different versions and see what answers come<br />
to you.<br />
The question 'who ARE you?' is especially<br />
interesting. 'Are' is a verb, with the infinitive<br />
'be', 'to be'. A verb indicates motion. So the<br />
question 'who ARE you?' suggests a focus on<br />
you as a movement rather than as a being. The<br />
focus shifts from the stillness of a body to the<br />
action of a being, from the stationary to the<br />
moving. There is a transitory aspect to you.<br />
From one moment to the next, you do not<br />
remain the same person. Your senses<br />
constantly process impressions and your<br />
understanding of the world changes from one<br />
moment to the next. Everything is energy and<br />
there is a continuously ongoing energetic<br />
exchange between you and your surroundings,<br />
the planet, and even with the Cosmos.<br />
Even the cells of your physical body change.<br />
They develop as well as regress with every<br />
breath you take. Life is never completely still.<br />
Neither are you.<br />
It is said that the cells in your body have<br />
completely replaced themselves every seven<br />
years and there is a new version of you. Does<br />
that warrant a repetition of the question “who<br />
are you”? If the definition of You is reduced to<br />
your body, then yes, maybe it does.<br />
What about your soul? In many religious and<br />
spiritual teachings, the human soul is said to go<br />
through a process of development and<br />
refinement. Part of that process may be<br />
incarnations, where you learn from each life you<br />
live and from the periods in between, when you<br />
are pure soul or essence.<br />
Finding the answer<br />
So who are you then? I mean, apart from bone,<br />
muscle and tissue?<br />
39
In 1957, Ingmar Bergman directed the<br />
masterpiece “The Seventh Seal”. There is a<br />
scene in that film where a knight looks at his<br />
hand and speaks these words: “This is my hand.<br />
I can move it, blood is pulsating in it. The Sun is<br />
still standing high in the sky and I, Antonius Block,<br />
am playing chess with Death”<br />
That is a powerful statement by the knight, not<br />
only of being alive but also of being someone<br />
strong and resourceful enough to be able to<br />
play chess with Death, with his own life in the<br />
balance. It is a statement of who he, Antonius<br />
Block, is in that moment.<br />
Fortunately, you do not have to enter into a<br />
game of chess with Death, in order to feel alive<br />
and to sense who you are.<br />
As I see it, true insight is best attained by not<br />
deliberately seeking it. Challenging issues are<br />
often best resolved by approaching them in a<br />
roundabout way rather than straight on.<br />
40<br />
An image can be better appreciated by directing<br />
your relaxed gaze next to it. Answers will come<br />
to you only if you avoid seeking them. And<br />
remember that a good question is always better<br />
than an answer, regardless of how good the<br />
answer may sound.<br />
A good way to gain insight and awareness is to<br />
visit nature. You may feel drawn to the sea, a<br />
lake or a forest. Go to where you feel is home<br />
for you. Wet your feet, touch a tree, smell the<br />
ground. Allow nature to embrace you and speak<br />
to you. Open yourself to the wisdom of the<br />
place in that moment and allow time for you to<br />
just be without thinking or analyzing too much.<br />
Gradually you will become aware of a feeling of<br />
calm. Your heartbeat will relax. Your senses will<br />
be more acute. Time will slow down. If you avoid<br />
listening too keenly, your inner ear will begin to<br />
pick up the whisper of nature speaking to you.<br />
There will be a moment of true self awareness<br />
when you will feel who you are and how you<br />
relate to Mother Earth and the great mystery of<br />
existence. Hold on to that moment and preserve<br />
it in your heart.

The YOU who are you<br />
Continues your journey through the great mystery<br />
As you traverse the ever undulating web of the ancient Norns<br />
Take a sip from the well of Urd and climb the mighty Yggdrasil<br />
Fate, Future and Present all intertwine and when least you know it,<br />
One will have changed places with another<br />
The YOU who are you<br />
Will remain who you are<br />
As the past meets the future<br />
And the mirror reflects your shadow<br />
Cast off that which is of the moment<br />
Sieve off the grime to find that of golden<br />
Create your own alchemy<br />
And return to the YOU<br />
The YOU who you are<br />
Is not of the moment<br />
Look beyond the shore<br />
And discover the ocean<br />

THE GRIEF PROCESS<br />
Martin Lewis<br />
The grief process can be shown as a diagrammatical<br />
representation of a persons orientation when loss is<br />
experienced. When a person is in the grief process,<br />
and is unable (or unwilling) to move through it, this<br />
process is often used to explain ‘where one is stuck’<br />
in their healing journey.<br />
Human beings tend to see loss and therefore death<br />
as ‘an end’ of something, when in fact it is not.<br />
We tend to oscillate between loss orientated<br />
behaviour and restoration orientated behaviour, as<br />
we try to come to terms with the loss. For some this<br />
can be a lifelong issue, unless it is attended to.<br />
This oscillation can be seen (for example) in the<br />
medical profession where human life is ranked<br />
above anything else and huge sums of money are<br />
spent trying to prolong it.<br />
There is no acceptance of loss, no ‘letting go’, just<br />
the enormous amount of effort expended to<br />
suspend the inevitable. It is this influence that<br />
creates grief, and the other relevant feelings that<br />
accompany it.<br />
This influence can affect a persons attitude<br />
towards themselves (and others) and their own<br />
psychological function.<br />
42
<strong>Alchemical</strong> <strong>Voice</strong> - L2M Issue 19<br />
In spiritual terms death and loss do not exist, and as a<br />
result therefore grief is not required, as there is<br />
nothing to grieve about.<br />
The consciousness music journey called SnowFall<br />
contains ‘resonant frequencies - specifically 73.42Hz<br />
(note D2)’ that helps align you with Universal Truth -<br />
in this case that we are spiritual beings having a<br />
human experience.<br />
73.42 Hz empowers the Svadhishthana, the Sacral<br />
Chakra - literally the ‘dwelling place of the Self’.<br />
When the Sacral Chakra is imbalanced, it can make<br />
you feel emotionally and physically weak. Depression,<br />
being overly sensitive, and anxiety can all be signs of<br />
disturbed energy in this chakra. The fear of losing<br />
control in a relationship, and compulsive or obsessive<br />
behaviour is a sign of an unbalanced Sacral Chakra.<br />
It also affects the connection to physical things -<br />
which it is why it is so important to balance this<br />
chakra when loss is experienced. This energy assists<br />
in letting go, accepting change, and the acceptance<br />
of transformation in life.<br />
The sacral chakra benefits also from the colour<br />
orange, the colour of governance and acceptance of<br />
your own power, and this induces creativity and<br />
stimulates movement towards a healthier outcome.<br />
This is not about denying that grief is not felt. It is to<br />
help align with Universal Truth, and supersede<br />
oscillatory behaviour, so you can move through the<br />
grief process with the knowledge and understanding<br />
that is needed to resolve the trauma and enable<br />
letting go.<br />

present times from tens of thousands of years ago<br />
Part 1: Walking (May/June 2022)<br />
Part 2: The mighty river (May/June 2022)<br />
Part 3: “The gods are playing with us” (July/August 2022)<br />

Part 7: The sticks for the Grandmothers (this edition)<br />
Part 8: Gogogama speaks<br />
SUMMARY SO FAR<br />
These stories originated in a past life experience<br />
Kwekwe is an inspired leader and time spirit. He is leading us, his people, along the coast to where<br />
he believes the Sun God will be turning to our left when rising out of the sea instead of to our right.<br />
We reached a wide, mighty river with many small islands. We could not even see the other side of<br />
the estuary and decided to make camp. A group of elders designated one island with glee-glee trees<br />
and scrum-scum bushes as our sacred meeting place.<br />
Our medicine man Oo-oo-warawara has told the elders how animal spirits showed him that the tribe<br />
must climb high rocks upstream to find a crossing before a forest fire engulfs their side of the river.<br />
The strong men will carry the children up the rocks. They will not be able to carry all the old<br />
grandmothers and grandfathers.<br />
I, Ririjojo, am organizing the tribe to depart. I have come to discuss with grandmother Gogogama<br />
what must be done and what that means for the grandmothers and the grandfathers.<br />
PART 7: THE STICKS FOR THE GRANDMOTHERS<br />
I am looking at the ground.<br />
When I look up, Gogogama is looking upon me, clear-eyed and loving.<br />
“Please tell the other grandmothers to come here with me, to this our sacred island. I will welcome them.”<br />
She staggers to her feet and raises herself to her full height, spindly arms by her side.<br />
“Go now, Ririjojo, and make haste. You have been chosen today to do this work for our tribe. You will do it<br />
well. For the spirits of our ancestors, for the spirits that we will become and for our children’s children’s<br />
children. Ashay!”<br />
“Ashay.” I reply.<br />
44
Her words give me strength.<br />
Strength enough to hold the sadnesses that are coming.<br />
I start for the other islands to speak with all the old<br />
grandmothers and the grandfathers.<br />
And then I spot Oo-oo-warawara. He is pushing a line<br />
of small sticks into the sand of the beach of this, the<br />
sacred island that he has guarded, all along the far side<br />
from the mainland.<br />
I go up to him with a question on my face.<br />
“Good morning, brother. Yes, I have slept safe thank you.”<br />
He sees that my question face remains.<br />
“Nnghe, nnghe,” he moans and spits out some fragments<br />
of leaf.<br />
“These sticks are for the water.<br />
I dreamed last night about the rainy season.<br />
I saw the river rising.<br />
These sticks are to keep out the rising floods that I saw<br />
coming.<br />
For our sacred island.<br />
And for the grandmothers.”<br />
His voice trails off.<br />
I leave him to his work.<br />
What will happen to Gogogama and the other<br />
grandmothers and the grandfathers?<br />
Find out what happens in the concluding part “Gogogama<br />
speaks” in May/June edition of <strong>Alchemical</strong> <strong>Voice</strong>!<br />

ARCHONS<br />
Julie Adams<br />
Archon/Andromedean/Humanity Drama<br />
Triangle<br />
Humanity appears to be in a type of ‘drama triangle’ with<br />
Andromedeans and Archons with each ‘player’ acting out<br />
different roles with one another. Humanity is the only<br />
player who doesn’t know the rules…<br />
The Drama Triangle is a psycho-social state, first proposed<br />
by Stephen Karpman, which models the connection<br />
between personal responsibility and power in conflicts, and<br />
the destructive and shifting roles people play. He defined<br />
three roles in conflict: Victim, Rescuer and Persecutor.<br />
Karpman placed these three roles on an inverted triangle<br />
and referred to them as the ‘three faces of drama’.<br />
The Victim<br />
The victim’s stance is ‘Poor me’. The victim feels<br />
victimized, oppressed, helpless, hopeless,<br />
powerless, ashamed, unable to make decisions,<br />
solve problems, take pleasure in life, or achieve<br />
insight. The victim, if not being persecuted, will<br />
seek out a Persecutor and also a Rescuer who<br />
will save the day but also perpetuate the<br />
Victim’s powerlessness.<br />
The Rescuer<br />
The Rescuer’s approach is ‘Let me help you’. A<br />
classic enabler, the Rescuer feels guilty if they<br />
don’t go to the rescue; however their rescuing<br />
keeps the Victim dependent on them. Rescuers<br />
need to be needed. Therapists of all types are<br />
classic rescuers. When they focus their energy<br />
on someone else, it enables them to ignore their<br />
own anxiety and issues.<br />
Persecutor<br />
Rescuer<br />
The rescue role is also pivotal because their<br />
actual primary interest is really an avoidance of<br />
their own problems disguised as concern for the<br />
victim’s needs.<br />
Victim<br />
The Persecutor<br />
Persecutors insist ‘It’s all your fault.’ The<br />
Persecutor is controlling, blaming, critical,<br />
oppressive, angry, authoritarian, rigid, and<br />
superior. Narcissists are classic persecutors.<br />
They cannot be seen to be at fault, and will stop<br />
at nothing to foist guilt on the victim.<br />
These positions are not usually fixed and this<br />
model of psychotherapy is used in clinics<br />
throughout the world.<br />
46
However, in our scenario it appears Humanity is being kept<br />
in the Victim’s role, whilst the Andromedeans and Archons<br />
play out the Rescuer/Persecutor roles, with the Archons<br />
and Andromedeans involved in a power play over humanity.<br />
Archons manipulate humanity using our ‘leaders’, who tell<br />
us what to do and how to behave. They work through<br />
telepathy and suggestion, attempting to hinder our Higher<br />
Self Development (HSD). Their most successful technique is<br />
to use religious ideology as a form of control.<br />
<br />
Yaldabaoth – Yaweh Sebaoth – Jehovah<br />
According to the Gnostics, Judeo-Christian Salvationism is<br />
an Archon ploy. The chief of the Archons, Lord Archon or<br />
Demiurge is known as Yaldabaoth (pronounced Yal-da-buyoth).<br />
He is frequently depicted as having the face of a lion<br />
and the body of a serpent with a ‘fiery’ nature.<br />
In the Old Testament the name Yahweh Sebaoth occurs<br />
276 times as the title of the ‘father god’ of the Hebrews. It<br />
appears that Yaldabaoth is simply a variant of Jehovah.<br />
When Gnostics expressed their views on the identity of<br />
Jehovah to devout Jews, and to Christians who also revered<br />
the Jewish ‘father god’, they were not well received!<br />
Corruption and Evil<br />
Jacques Lacarriere, a French writer, studied Hindu<br />
philosophy and was a prominent critic, journalist and<br />
essayist. He suggested that Gnostics recognized,<br />
‘The fundamentally corrupt character of all human enterprises<br />
and institutions: time, history, powers, states, religions, races<br />
and nations.’<br />
The Gnostics believed the Archons exploit our tendency to<br />
let our mistakes go uncorrected. But when human error<br />
goes uncorrected it can turn into evil and work against the<br />
universal plan of life.<br />
Lacarriere also suggested that corruption occurs due to<br />
these uncorrected errors;<br />
‘The errors we make go uncorrected and go beyond the scale of<br />
correction. All power is a source of alienation…all institutions,<br />
laws religions, churches and powers are nothing but a sham,<br />
the perpetuation of an age-old deception.’<br />
47
We are living in an Archon ‘alien-nation’, kept apart from<br />
the true God (our higher self). The task we face is to<br />
reconnect through spiritual enlightenment.<br />
The gnostic text The Secret Book of John describes an<br />
Archon as ‘a dragon with a lion’s head and eyes flashing light<br />
bolts’.<br />
Other gnostic texts say Archons can take two forms;<br />
embryonic (Greys of modern UFO lore) or drakonic, a<br />
reptilian type, which can possess the bodies of human<br />
beings.<br />
The Serpent Power<br />
To Gnostics, the lion-headed serpent crowned with solar<br />
rays was not only the image of the Lord Archon, but also of<br />
the source of spiritual power that allows human beings to<br />
resist that entity. The lion-serpent image was represented<br />
on Gnostic amulets to ward off Archonic influence.<br />
Gnostics regards the serpent as a spiritual ally to humanity.<br />
In the Gnostic version of the Garden of Eden, Kundalini<br />
was the ‘messenger of salvation’.<br />
In Asian mysticism and Yoga, this reptile is known as<br />
Kundalini, the serpent power. Gnostics who practised<br />
Kundalini yoga were called Ophites, from the Greek ophis,<br />
which means ‘snake’. The Ophites were condemned by<br />
early Christians as pagan ‘snake-worshippers!’<br />
Arousal of Kundalini produces ecstasy, triggers super<br />
consciousness, opens the ‘occult’ faculties, and releases<br />
waves of healing energy that flush physiological and<br />
hormonal secretions through the body.<br />
Arousal of Kundalini produces orgasm, the sudden<br />
discharge of accumulated sexual excitement, experienced<br />
by human males and females. Orgasms are controlled by<br />
the involuntary or autonomic nervous system, and are<br />
often associated with other involuntary actions, including<br />
muscular spasms in multiple areas of the body, and the<br />
sensation of euphoria.<br />
In effect, they held Kundalini, the sexual-spiritual energy<br />
locked in the body structure, to be the main instrument of<br />
defence against the Archons.<br />
The ‘protection of the Light’ comes through activated<br />
Kundalini, often described as a lightning-like tide of<br />
electrified light that pours through the body.
‘Nymphion’ is a code word for the ambient cell of<br />
psychophysical protection generated by high levels of<br />
Kundalini.<br />
In biology, a nymph state is the ‘immature form’, which<br />
undergoes gradual metamorphosis before reaching its adult<br />
stage. A form of HSD…<br />
<br />
However, ‘nymphomaniac’ like behaviour is often frowned<br />
upon by society (particularly the Church), labelled by the<br />
medical profession as ‘hyper sexuality’.<br />
So, orgasm connects you with your true God – your true<br />
divine self, and a ‘nymphomaniac’ is just striving to reunite<br />
with his or her higher self!<br />

WISE LEADERS<br />
Silvia Siret<br />
How to become a wise leader<br />
Becoming a wise leader involves developing a range of personal and professional qualities that<br />
allow you to effectively guide and inspire others. Some key qualities of wise leaders include<br />
emotional intelligence, empathy, strong communication skills, and self-awareness.<br />
To develop these qualities, there are several steps you can take:<br />
Focus on developing your emotional intelligence.<br />
This involves being aware of your own emotions<br />
and how they can affect your behavior, as well<br />
as being attuned to the emotions of others. To<br />
improve your emotional intelligence, you can try<br />
practicing mindfulness or seeking out training or<br />
coaching programs.<br />
Practice empathy. Empathy is the ability to<br />

"Pulling out all stops in her debut work<br />
of fiction, Sue Penney’s Hidden in the<br />
Mist is a ghostly tale par excellence.<br />
Aware of her own personal<br />
supernatural abilities since the age of<br />
three, the author draws on real-life<br />
events she experienced as a child to<br />
give Hidden in the Mist an authenticity<br />
and scare factor that plays with your<br />
mind from the outset. Adding further<br />
to its spooky credentials, the front<br />
cover is illustrated with an image of<br />
the actual house in which the author<br />
first experienced the paranormal.<br />
Worthy of a solid ten out of ten for its<br />
accomplished plot, pace and the fear it<br />
evokes, Hidden in the Mist is most<br />
definitely one to read with the lights<br />
on full."<br />

Life behind<br />
the mask<br />
A compelling story of a young mother, happy in<br />
her first marital home, running her successful<br />
dance school. Everything changed one fateful<br />
night; following a severe car accident, her<br />
husband developed paranoid schizophrenia. A<br />
year of desperation, misery attempted murder, a<br />
shooting and a suicide followed.<br />
A second husband with rage issues, led to<br />
physical abuse of her son and a life of fear.<br />
Follow her fight to protect her children and<br />
explore the horrors they faced growing up.<br />
Years remaining silent for fear of reprisal and<br />
the guilt carried from seeing the effect it had on<br />
her children.<br />
Another near fatal car accident and the<br />
unexplained miracle rescue. An illness that<br />
drained her body, stole her career and left her<br />
bedridden. This is one woman’s battle against<br />
insurmountable odds. The will to survive,<br />
protect, overcome years of torment, fear and<br />
oppression and the day she discovered the<br />
strength within, to fight back and step out from<br />
‘BEHIND THE MASK’<br />
I spent most of my working life as a professional dance instructor, designing and<br />
producing theatrical shows for children. When a severe back injury resulting from a car<br />
crash forced me into early retirement, I started looking for new ways to be creative and<br />
find a new outlet in life to express myself. Writing filled this void and allowed me to<br />
clarify, accept and eventually script what has happened to me over the years, which<br />
makes for a compelling and at times, difficult read.<br />
For a very long time I tried to come to terms with what I have been through and how it<br />
has affected both me and my family. Having finished this book, I am now able to look<br />
back and reflect on my life in a way I never thought possible. The sheer number and<br />
variety of traumas I have experienced is almost incomprehensible and the horrors of<br />
some of the situations are a lot to take on-board. These have shaped me into the<br />
woman I am today.<br />
Within the book you will experience my life in its rawest form including a suicide, a<br />
ruined career, a lengthy lawsuit, a terrible marriage, an abusive husband, terrified<br />
children, a debilitating illness, broken families, dreams shattered, hope, fear, and<br />
impossible choices. Only when you are at your lowest, when you feel that life has taken<br />
too much from you, do you look deep inside yourself and make a choice. This story is my<br />
choice.<br />
