Oracle Card<br />

by Oriel Lux<br />

Struggle<br />

There is always a wish for a struggle-free path,<br />

one that is smooth sailing and without anxiety<br />

or worry. The struggle card reminds us though,<br />

that not everything we encounter need be seen<br />

as a struggle.<br />

Instead, most situations give us an opportunity<br />

for learning – in all things, there is room for<br />

reflection and deeper understandings.<br />

In this card, the fish is battling upstream,<br />

against the current of the river. Yet, above the<br />

fish is the star – shining brightly. This card<br />

reminds you that even when things feel hard,<br />

and you are struggling to keep moving, keep<br />

sight of your dreams and wishes. It is your grit<br />

and determination that enables you to use<br />

these struggles in a meaningful way, to<br />

empower you, develop you and help get you<br />

where you want to be. In many ways then, a<br />

struggle is only a struggle, if you see it that<br />

way.<br />

Soul Verse Poem<br />

by Sue Penney<br />

THE READINESS OF THE HARE<br />

Now look said the hare as he jumped through the night<br />

With the moon on his back as he took to his flight<br />

If you follow me now you can dance with me still<br />

The time to begin is now yours to fulfil<br />

<br />

It won't be much longer ’til the light starts to morn<br />

If you dance with me now you'll be in from the dawn<br />

You have still much to learn if you'll follow my ways<br />

You have much to teach those emerging from haze<br />

<br />

The moonlight cast shadows of just what would be<br />

That soon all the rest of the world was to see<br />

We haven't got long now to learn the hares dance<br />

As mankind does start to wake from its trance<br />

<br />

Mankind will need other hares to dance with<br />

This is the lesson the midnight hare gives<br />

You must learn quickly to be ready to go<br />

And show those now emerging what they must know.<br />

<br />

A Soul Verse reading is a message channelled by Sue in poetry<br />

form from spirit.<br />

These readings are totally unique and can be combined with a<br />

healing treatment.<br />

Ritual for Spring - Bring it in!<br />

This is the perfect time to think about starting new things<br />

that need energy and time. It is the time to plant seeds and<br />

watch them grow. The earth is starting to warm after the<br />

dark days of winter and with the lengthening days we are<br />

filled with renewed energy and motivation.<br />

If you want to start working on a new project or set some<br />

goals that will take time to achieve then choose a new<br />

moon in early to mid-spring. You will need the following:<br />

A green candle (choose one that can burn down safely<br />

over a shortish amount of time, such as a green<br />

tealight)<br />

Two pieces of paper<br />

A pen or pencil<br />

A piece of string or ribbon<br />

For this ritual, you need to spend a little time thinking<br />

about what exactly it is that you wish to achieve.<br />

Then write it down as if you have actually achieved it,<br />

thinking about how you will feel, what it will look like, the<br />

sounds associated with it.<br />

Get the picture clear in your mind and look at it through<br />

your own eyes feeling the excitement of achieving your<br />

goal.<br />

On the pieces of paper write down two copies of your goal in the present<br />

tense, i.e. I have written my first book and it has achieved great success,<br />

or I have started my new job and I am loving it.<br />

Roll up one of the pieces of paper with the string or ribbon and take the<br />

second piece and the candle outside.<br />

Bury one of the pieces of paper in the earth (a pot will do if you do not<br />

have a garden or go to a wood or park if you do not have a potted plant).<br />

Light the candle and burn the second piece of paper whilst saying these<br />

words:<br />

To the earth and to the sky<br />

I send my wishes deep and high<br />

Hear my words and thoughts of need<br />

And have them become true indeed<br />

Before this year has breathed its last<br />

Into reality they’ve passed.<br />

I know that you do hear and see<br />

So I ask you mote it be<br />

Leave the candle to burn down entirely in a safe place and watch your<br />

dreams grow into reality.<br />

Remember though, magic can only go so far, you need to also take action<br />

towards achieving your dreams and goals.<br />

Crystal selections for you!<br />

<strong>March</strong><br />

Chrysoprase emanates the soothing vibrations of peace and<br />

serenity, excellent for balancing the heart chakra and grounding in<br />

the energies of calmness and acceptance. It also helps when<br />

working on issues related to anger towards others or yourself as<br />

Chrysoprase helps to dissipate feelings of animosity, guilt or shame<br />

so you can see things for what they are and deal with or work<br />

through them in a calm and amicable manner, bringing in positive<br />

and empowering energies, self-love and self-belief.<br />

This crystal is perfect for working during the spring energies of the<br />

year. Its combination of greens and browns work in synergy to<br />

bring in the elements of earth and the new life that is begging to<br />

burst up from within her, just like our own awakening bodies, we<br />

begin to birth and start to make things real. Chrysoprase is also said<br />

to assist the body with detoxification. This crystal supports you<br />

during meditation and connects you to the energies of Mother<br />

Earth and the elemental kingdoms of the fairies, gnomes, and<br />

nature spirits.<br />

The channelled message<br />

“I am here to support you unconditionally, to nurture your emotions<br />

and set you free, for when you ask, I shall help you see, all the love and<br />

clarity that resides in thee and transform any anger into serenity, place<br />

me upon your heart for calmness and healing I shall impart. Keep me<br />

near when you need support or when looking for the fairy folk.”<br />

The Goddesses and Angels strongly connected to this crystal are:<br />

Gods: Venus, Artha, Gaia, The Green Man, Cernunnos,<br />

Archangels: Sandalphon, Uriel, Raphael<br />

<strong>April</strong><br />

Yellow topaz is also known as gold or imperial Topaz and has a vibrant<br />

zinging energy, bubbling with a warm lifeforce glow of optimism,<br />

happiness, hope and abundance. In ancient times Topaz was worn in<br />

the belief that it protected you from evil and having an accident to even<br />

giving you the power of invisibility if in danger.<br />

Yellow Topaz works well on the stomach, intestines and solar plexus<br />

chakra supporting one’s journey of self-realisation. It aids with boosting<br />

self-confidence and helps to regulate the nervous systems and clear the<br />

meridians and energy lines within the body. Yellow topaz also vibrates<br />

the energy of the sun and as the days are now getting longer, the sun<br />

warms Mother Earth, promoting growth from deep within her body.<br />

Yellow topaz can awaken your creativity and the parts of your<br />

emotional body that have been feeling despondent, lifting your mood,<br />

relieving depression. It helps to bring in light to re-ignite the feeling of<br />

hope and joy for you to move creatively forward into the season of<br />

spring feeling refreshed and ready to start work cultivating all the<br />

projects you have been planning. This crystal is also good to support<br />

someone in giving up an addiction, on both physical and emotional<br />

levels<br />

The channelled message<br />

"I come to enliven your body, to lighten the dark spaces<br />

and illuminate your soul.<br />

Draw upon my energies warm and strong as I hug you<br />

and nurture your waking form.<br />

All worries, sadness and grief will dissolve in my golden ray of joy,<br />

for now, you have connected with me a protective ally,<br />

I shall be, reawaken your creativity."<br />

The Goddesses, Gods and Angels strongly connected to this crystal are:<br />

Gods: Artha, Ostara, Ēostre, Persephone. God: Angus /Aonghus,<br />

Archangels: Jophiel and Haniel<br />

Festival of Ostara - Spring Equinox<br />

As the wheels of the year turn again, we now enter the new and<br />

fresh energies of spring equinox or Ostara, named after the<br />

Germanic Goddess, Eostre/Ostara the Goddess of light, who was<br />

sometimes depicted with the head and shoulders of a hare. The<br />

hare is sacred to the Goddess. Ostara is sometimes shown as a<br />

spring maiden carrying a basket of eggs - this is where the idea of<br />

the Easter bunny was appropriated.<br />

Eggs symbolise the perfect balance of male and female, new life or<br />

even the cosmic egg of the universe and all life. This is the first day<br />

of spring, the point between the year where light and dark are<br />

equal, bringing with it the energies of fertility, creativity, and<br />

rebirth. The God of Light known as the Oak King is victorious over<br />

his rival the Holly King God of the darkness, and the young Sun<br />

God begins to shine longer than the darkness of the night and the<br />

air starts to warm. The land comes back to life and the trees are<br />

now in bud, plants begin to shoot up from the fertile earth and<br />

grow. The daffodils and springtime flowers come into bloom and<br />

the animals come out of hibernation - the cycle of life begins again.<br />

It is said that the Christian celebration of Easter evolved from<br />

Eostre as in the Easter bunny. Incidentally, the name of the female<br />

hormone estrogen is derived from the name of Goddess Eostre.<br />

Also known as Vernal Equinox or Spring Equinox, the precise time<br />

it falls this year will be 15:32 on Sunday, 20 <strong>March</strong> <strong>2022</strong>. in<br />

Northern Hemisphere and will be Autumn Equinox or Madron,<br />

Mabon in the Southern hemisphere. The word equinox is derived<br />

from the Latin word “Aequas (equal) nox (night) meaning “equal<br />

night”. The equinoxes are the only times of the year that the sun<br />

rises in the east and sets in the west. The festival of Eostre was<br />

traditionally held on the first full moon of the Equinox.<br />

A good activity for this season is decorating hard-boiled eggs with<br />

affirmations or symbols that have a special meaning to you. Spend<br />

some time doing a ritual - visualise what you want as if it has<br />

already happened and energise it with all the positivity and success<br />

it brings. When finished ceremonially shell the egg, eating the<br />

contents and burying the shell into the earth to sow your intentions<br />

ready to fertilize and grow. A vegan option would be to use a<br />

recycled cardboard egg, following the same steps and burying it<br />

once your visualising process has taken place.<br />

Another empowering activity is either physically or ethereally<br />

walking a labyrinth, letting go of that which no longer serves you<br />

and inviting in your dreams and wishes, saying YES to all of them.<br />

Make seasonal cakes and bread to share with family and friends<br />

and enjoy getting back out in nature again.<br />

See below a link to workshops that include rituals, guided<br />

ceremonies and meditations.<br />

This season brings in the energy of balance and excitement making<br />

you feel fizzy and bubbly... Increase your intuition and sensitivity so<br />

you can see the magic around you. Bring in new and wonderful<br />

fresh beginnings, full of inspiration, positivity, fertility, and<br />

creativity. Ostara is about awakening the energetic fire in your<br />

belly, drawing on the loving guidance of the Goddess and God of<br />

this season and having the courage to take back your power and<br />

stand strong, to rise up and bring to life the projects you have<br />

seeded and dreamed about up till now. Learn to grow personally<br />

from the lessons and challenges the rest of the year may bring with<br />

confidence, grace, and heart centred love.<br />

Bespoke Crystal Chairs<br />

The story of the Dragon chair (shown in the photos)<br />

This chair was commissioned by a wonderful family in Hampshire. The<br />

wood used to create it used to be bannisters at a sports centre which<br />

were then utilised as a fireplace surround in a kitchen 15 years ago and<br />

again used to create this lovely chair. Reuse and Recycle!<br />

We felt a beautiful dragon theme would work well for this family.<br />

Dragon energy is gentle and highly empowering. The crystals used<br />

were Amethyst, Opal, Ghost Eye Imperial Jasper, Dragon Vein Agate<br />

Blue, Aventurine Quartz, Yellow Jade, Agate Orange, Kambaba Jasper,<br />

Dragon Blood Jasper, Dragon Vein Agate Dark Blue.<br />

All the crystals with our intentions were infused into the chair as it was<br />

being created. This chair excudes calmness, peace, spiritual expansion,<br />

protection, emotional and physical balance, courage and strength.<br />

​Well "the proof is in the pudding" as they say. As soon as the chair was<br />

in place, next to the fireplace, the family's Bengali cat was immediately<br />

drawn to the big energy field around it. Cats are spiritual beings and<br />

are drawn to higher realms and vibrations. They connect to people and<br />

items that match their own energy.<br />

Do you know who Kuan Yin is?<br />

Kuan Yin (also spelled as<br />

Quan Yin or Guan Yin) is<br />

a Goddess in Chinese<br />

mythology and is known<br />

as the Goddess of<br />

Compassion.<br />

In Sanskrit, she is called<br />

'Padma Pani' which<br />

translated means 'the<br />

one who holds the<br />

lotus'.<br />

14


In Chinese mythology, Kuan<br />

Yin is a Goddess who has<br />

dedicated her life to bring<br />

enlightenment to all. She<br />

made a vow to bring mercy<br />

and compassion to<br />

humankind.<br />

She is normally found sitting<br />

or standing on a lotus<br />

flower, holding a willow<br />

branch and a water jar.<br />

The lotus flower symbolises<br />

purity, enlightenment and<br />

self-regeneration.<br />

The willow branch signifies<br />

fertility and new life.<br />

The jar of water represents<br />

divine nectar of life used as<br />

a blessing.<br />

Hold Kuan Yin in your<br />

prayers to ask for her help<br />

and support.<br />

STAGE MEDIUMSHIP<br />

Glen Charles & Abraham<br />

Where do you even start with an article about being a Medium.<br />

As I write I’m hoping that my guide will come in and make a grand entrance<br />

as he normally does, he is just as proud of me as I am of him and we are<br />

constantly learning from each other.<br />

I close my eyes, discourage my thoughts, breathe in deeply and relax. I<br />

open a space in my mind and open my third eye. I then begin my challenge<br />

to make sure the amazing energy I feel is my guide. In my mind’s eye, I hold<br />

aloft my shiny sword of truth, thick and heavy, the steel shining in the light.<br />

I then begin my Challenge of the energy!<br />

I boldly say in my open space “Are you ready to work for the good of God<br />

and of the Father, also the good of mankind and humanity. I wait for a firm<br />

yes or no - a 'yes' is a positive energy, they will take my sword and step<br />

forward. I then ask for their signature. My Guide Abraham steps to my left<br />

as it is my weaker side and I feel his Green Emerald ring hand on my<br />

shoulder. He is my support and teacher to allow the energy of others to<br />

come through that I may be a MEDIUM using my body and voice as a<br />

grounded point for the beautiful energy that comes through that wish to<br />

speak to loved ones that have passed to the other realm.<br />

I can hear you asking, “What if the energy says no or is silent?” I then say<br />

“Step away you are not of the light respect my aura (beacon) and love.<br />

Thank You."<br />

There is never any evil or negative energy but... some energy can be a bit<br />

mischievous not the sort I wish to work with anyway!<br />

The energy of our souls merge as one, entwine and dance together hand in<br />

hand. I get different feelings, body emotions, symbols and pictures. I begin<br />

to feel the characteristics of the passed person, on occasions I get words.<br />

Then my work has begun, my guide is there to support and give spirit’s<br />

message as is, I must trust what is given, is to be given. I also need to find<br />

the receiver for the messenger that has come through. Sometimes it’s<br />

about elimination within a crowd of people from a stage, other times I feel<br />

or see a light switch on over a person in the audience and that is where I<br />

am supposed to be.<br />

The Mediumship platform is only one tool in the box, one to one readings<br />

and also use of the Tarot. When I use tarot then it is a gift exchange system<br />

from spirit through me to you, all I ask is to give what you can afford, if you<br />

can only afford £1 then that’s a fair exchange if you can give more then<br />

do... a vegan cake, that’s a fair-trade, I love homemade Cake!<br />

My journey began when I was 38, I felt deep down there was more to life<br />

that I had yet to learn. A yearning from within, a feeling of higher purpose.<br />

Through personal tarot readings, spiritual circles I began my journey as a<br />

“fledgling” on platform with other mediums that would help lift and direct<br />

the energy. I was touring all around the counties, I loved the high, it<br />

became addictive like a drug, I realised then that I had an amazing supplier!<br />

I am but a humble servant of the father waiting to help.<br />

<strong>Alchemical</strong> <strong>Voice</strong> - L2M Issue 13<br />

Here is a poem inspired by spirit and written by me. Enjoy reading it as I had writing it!<br />

<br />

The Medium<br />

<br />

I feel him stand before me, a man 5ft 9, he's going grey, a little stocky<br />

the message not clear, the picture quite blocky.<br />

He holds out his hands so hard and worn, dry and old,<br />

A man of labour in mines so cold.<br />

He stands there proud, but his face shows strife<br />

Through his hardships of growth through modern life.<br />

A family man that could show no love,<br />

So difficult his emotions, cut into his layer so deep, kept all inside, no one could see!<br />

How do I see this as I stand, emotion and anger from a man so grand!<br />

I must show he's feeling in any way I can, through my voice and gestures with my hands<br />

He shouts his name, I cannot hear, my nerves and butterflies soon appear.<br />

I begin to sweat I feel on the spot, I begin to shake, "I've gone to pot"<br />

Out I look to an audience sombre, I stop and think I begin to ponder.<br />

This gallant man, a message bringing to, the news of his passing to a favoured few.<br />

He seems to fade, his energy thin, a breath I take I step back in.<br />

I begin to focus feel his vibe, the symbols appear, in my mind’s eye.<br />

He shows me a flower, an anniversary near, an emotion sets in I feel a tear.<br />

A sad moment I hear him cry, the day he had to say goodbye!<br />

A family loved, loved ones special, only communication is my vessel.<br />

A dad to two beautiful girls, a vision he shows of their soft bright curls.<br />

Times remembered, of days gone by, of woodland walks and apple pie,<br />

of scrumping and being on their bikes, while he holds the seat running behind.<br />

The sound of laughter screams of delight, the sun so high the vision so bright.<br />

I look out again to the people once more, a sniff, a cough, I need to be sure.<br />

Amongst the crowd she shines, a beacon of light, the silver cord that draws her tight!<br />

She looks, she smiles, she confirms, the memories that now have been returned.<br />

This man she once knew as dad has appeared again in mind, not sad.<br />

To learn that one day they will meet again, on a plane and land not far away.<br />

An overwhelming feeling comes; I almost fear my job is done.<br />

I close my eyes and link back in; I'll ask a question and allow him in.<br />

I allow the power to consume me; I feel spirits energy running through me.<br />

A current so strong the flow so deep, they’ve turned the dial, up goes the heat!<br />

Our souls explode with an ignited spark; energy grows wild with tremendous speed, spreading fast around my feet!<br />

The feelings rise, engulf my body; too late to distinguish<br />

It's out of control we are united together in our souls.<br />

The electric air crackles, the energy high, I'm as light as a feather, my soul it doth rise.<br />

It looks down to the ground and admires the view, an angel it sees, and I think it was you.<br />

Tears erupt, happiness, and smiles<br />

it’s come back down and disappears for a while.<br />

He said his piece and it's now been confirmed<br />

I see his face and see him turn<br />

Then he's gone “poof" as if by magic.<br />

He's passing no more, seems quite as tragic!<br />

I step from the stage to an open applause;<br />

I'm hoping the message, the message was yours!!<br />

CHOOSE A MONTHLY ARCHANGEL<br />

Carol Coggan<br />

I have mentioned Angelic prescriptions previously,<br />

whereby you place yourself in the centre of four<br />

Archangels when faced with a particular issue. For<br />

instance, Archangel Michael at the back right for<br />

protection, he has your back. Archangel Raphael back left<br />

for health. Archangel Gabriel front left for motivation, as<br />

you move forward and Archangel Uriel front right for<br />

inspiration and support. This is just an example of asking<br />

the Archangels for help and support for the day or if you<br />

have a project to tackle.<br />

Remember also your Guardian Angel, who is with you at<br />

all times, and you have access to all the other Angels, in<br />

fact, you are surrounded by an army if you choose to work<br />

with them.<br />

In the last issue I talked of you having a vision for the<br />

New Year, and by writing this vision down, you are telling<br />

the Universe and the Angels, this is what you would love,<br />

and this is what you want to manifest. We are now in<br />

<strong>March</strong> and <strong>April</strong> you can consider which Angels you have<br />

been working with and what part of your vision/dream is<br />

manifesting. You can also ask one specific Archangel to<br />

work with you for the month alongside the other Angels<br />

and this will tie in with your vision/dream.<br />

<strong>March</strong> is the time of spring/new growth/the equinox on<br />

the 21st, so I will specifically be asking Archangel Raphael<br />

to work with me and focus on my full healthfulness. This<br />

is health in all areas, spiritually, mentally, physically and<br />

emotionally. By focusing on full healthfulness in these<br />

areas,<br />

I will not think of any ill-health, as I wish to manifest full<br />

health. As you work with Archangel Raphael thank him for<br />

the full health you have and behave “as if“. This, at times<br />

you may find hard especially if you are in pain, but focus<br />

on what you would do if you are pain-free: run upstairs,<br />

go for a walk or sleep well?<br />

You decide and by taking the emphasis away from the<br />

pain you will be focusing on the life you wish to live. (I<br />

should say on health matters, I am not advocating ignoring<br />

your doctor's advice or not following any medication etc. I<br />

look on it and am very thankful that the Universe has<br />

given us doctors and often Archangel Raphael will provide<br />

healing through them, but we can help too in our thinking<br />

and outlook).<br />

<strong>April</strong> is the time of spring and further new growth. It is<br />

also my birthday month and there are the Easter holidays.<br />

I will be specifically asking Archangel Jophiel to work with<br />

me. Her name is “the beauty of God” and she enables us<br />

to see the beauty in everything. She also helps clear<br />

clutter so will help you have the incentive for spring<br />

cleaning. By seeing the beauty in everything, and thanking<br />

Archangel Jophiel for all of this, there is no space for<br />

judgement, resentment or any other negative energy. This<br />

will increase your positive energy along with working with<br />

the other Archangels and Angels and this way you can<br />

manifest your dreams/vision.<br />

What are you hoping to manifest in spring <strong>2022</strong>? and<br />

which Archangel will you be asking to work with you?<br />

Remember you have an army at hand.<br />

The Rubicon Point for Humanity-<br />

Apathy to action<br />

by Kathy Mingo<br />

As we peer onto the cavernous abyss that has<br />

been this convoluted life for the last few years, we<br />

are being asked not only to hold the light but to<br />

also expand our knowledge of the light and what<br />

it means not only for us, but for the consciousness<br />

collective.<br />

As we alchemise from one frequency to a much<br />

higher one we are reminded that we do not stand<br />

alone on our path, but we are conjoined with our<br />

guides, the angelic realms and also the quantum<br />

galactic energies as well. We will be working in a<br />

harmonic resonance that will propel humanity<br />

towards a more unified existence, old dogmatic<br />

ego beliefs will start to be devoid and, in its stead,<br />

a gentler framework for humanity to move out of<br />

the apathetic state it is in at the moment and in to<br />

action.<br />

No more hand-holding but self-governance and<br />

divine sovereignty.<br />

To move into higher super consciousness, we<br />

have to accept our grievances from the past, the<br />

societal need for perfection, the gilded cage and<br />

the kudos placed on success that is purely deemed<br />

from financial gains, and move towards neutrality<br />

and compassion.<br />

These requests from higher light seen at times an<br />

impossible ask, but slowly and surely as we adopt<br />

a gentler, kinder expression the discordant can<br />

become orchestral. The higher dimensional light<br />

has held us in their reverence since time in<br />

memorial, we fixate on time being linear, instead<br />

of spherical, there is no true time, just the illusion<br />

that we have time. That illusion means we<br />

procrastinate, we put off those things that are<br />

hard and do not, perhaps, prioritise those things<br />

that have true meaning.<br />

Apathy has ruled supreme, and joy has been<br />

diminished, it is time to reclaim our sovereign light<br />

and light that fuse on hope. We can cocreate a<br />

hopeful future for the next generation to help<br />

them take forward a new legacy for life.<br />

Life and living is the most precious commodity<br />

that we share, and though this neutrality will be<br />

hard to navigate, lets take this journey together<br />

into the proper brave new world and forge our<br />

Atlantis rising.<br />

Einstein said, “Reality is an illusion, albeit a very<br />

persistent one”.<br />

As the global narrative collapses around its matrix<br />

program, we as a human race are being asked to<br />

become a humane race<br />

Forgive those you cannot forgive<br />

Show love to those that have wounded<br />

Accept those whose narrative deviates from<br />

your own.<br />

Leading with Love<br />

Rehumanising the Workplace<br />

As we emerge from the pandemic, many have begun to raise deep<br />

questions about their working life. People are seeking meaningful work<br />

where they are valued and respected rather than treated as a cog in a<br />

machine. Increasing numbers of people are seeking greater work-life<br />

balance and are realising that their levels of wellbeing are significantly<br />

affected by the working environment. They want managers and leaders<br />

who are approachable and trustworthy and who can act as mentors and<br />

coaches in the workplace.<br />

This book presents original research based on leaders who were<br />

nominated by their people for leading with love. It shows that leading<br />

with love is something that is practised by leaders who are more<br />

emotionally, morally, and spiritually mature. Leading with love is a sign of<br />

psychological maturity, whilst leading with fear is a sign of hindered<br />

emotional and spiritual development. Fusing the research with ancient<br />

spiritual wisdom, as well as the latest findings in developmental and<br />

transpersonal psychology, the book presents a simple framework to help<br />

leaders develop their psychological maturity and offers practices that<br />

will enable them to lead with love.<br />

CONNECTING<br />

WITH THE<br />

ANCIENT<br />

A thin shadow moved across the paper as a scribbling<br />

sound announced the progress of the writing.<br />

He loved to write with pencils. The scent of the graphite<br />

brought back some of the few memories he had from his<br />

childhood. The hexagonal shape reminded him of<br />

honeycomb. When he sharpened a pencil, the thin flaky<br />

shavings of the wood was like waves on the ocean,<br />

undulating and twisting as they unwound from the<br />

sharpener and gracefully descended towards the floor in a<br />

lullaby motion.<br />

He remembered the notes his father would write. He<br />

typically used a badly sharpened stump of a pencil, the<br />

end of it roughly cut with a pen knife to a pointed shape.<br />

b y J o h n S j o v i k<br />

The writing soon collapsed into an unintelligible set of<br />

smudgy blots on the paper. Yet it carried the distinctive<br />

old fashioned style of his father’s handwriting and he<br />

loved it for that very reason.<br />

Writing had never come easy to him. It was a struggle; a<br />

battle that seemed ancient. Somehow he felt connected<br />

to times long forgotten, to ancestors long vanished, to<br />

places that no longer existed.<br />

26


He thought of caves he had visited, with writing on the<br />

walls. They were images of animals, hunters, gods, the<br />

night sky, the outline of a hand... For him, that was<br />

writing, even though words were never used, neither<br />

grammar nor the creation of sentences. It was writing, all<br />

the same, telling a story, negotiating anxiety, dealing with<br />

fears. It was a message to the spirits, to the heavens and<br />

the stars. He remembered a visit to such a cave. He had<br />

lifted his left hand to match it to the outline of an ancient<br />

hand, drawn on the rough cave wall some 10.000 years<br />

ago. By that simple act, he connected with his ancestors.<br />

He became a carrier of a tradition from Neolithic time. He<br />

became a messenger.<br />

He continued writing, now with regained confidence. He<br />

was painting with words, using graphite on paper when<br />

his predecessor painted with images, using soot on rock.<br />

He loved to create the shape of the characters of the<br />

alphabet. The jolly roundness of B, the sharp edges of K,<br />

the boldness of O and the close affinity of E and F. The<br />

shapes of characters brought nuances to the flavour of<br />

words. That way, he was not just writing words with<br />

intellectual content, he was also creating images when<br />

shaping the building blocks of words.<br />

Memories are really a kaleidoscope of feelings, emotions,<br />

thoughts and reincarnations of impressions on the senses<br />

as experienced at the time. When thinking back, he once<br />

again heard sounds, he felt texture and shape, he tasted<br />

sweetness and bitterness, he saw light and shadow and<br />

he smelled the wetness of asphalt on a rainy afternoon.<br />

He tried to envisage how he moulded and shaped those<br />

memories into the lines and curves that his pencil created<br />

on the sheet in front of him.<br />

The marriage of graphite and paper<br />

The renditions of memories through words<br />

The attempt at re-creating distant impressions on<br />

the senses<br />

Alas<br />

How futile is that?<br />

By closing his eyes and stopping for a moment...<br />

By pausing the flow in his mind...<br />

By letting go of the pencil and abandoning the<br />

paper...<br />

He dropped into Spirit and made connections<br />

beyond time<br />

Then became now and distance was nulled<br />

Once again<br />

Once again<br />

FAMILY<br />

CONSTELLATIONS<br />

A ground-breaking approach<br />

If you want to free yourself from negative<br />

patterns, behaviours and emotions, a family<br />

constellation can illuminate how you have<br />

unconsciously inherited them from your<br />

family system.<br />

Maybe, you feel that you are not living<br />

your life to your full potential; or you<br />

have a sense of being held back.<br />

You may have been feeling weighed<br />

down by persisting emotions of anger,<br />

anxiety, shame, low moods, guilt or<br />

mental health issues.<br />

You might keep experiencing unhelpful<br />

patterns, like relationship troubles,<br />

financial hardship, professional struggles,<br />

addiction, or self-sabotage.<br />

Most certainly, you will have learned a lot<br />

from books, events, and therapy; but you<br />

may still have not been able to break free.<br />

What if some of your issues came from<br />

something much deeper, namely from<br />

unresolved trauma from your family system<br />

that you have picked up subconsciously out<br />

of a very powerful love and loyalty to them?<br />

In family constellations we see that most<br />

issues are rooted in unresolved trauma or<br />

unprocessed emotions which one doesn't<br />

necessarily know about, passed down across<br />

generations. Once the hidden dynamics and<br />

family entanglements behind our issue(s) are<br />

seen from a completely different<br />

perspective, they are transformed; for us,<br />

our offspring, and future generations.<br />

Family Constellations is a powerful tool to<br />

create healing within your relationships in<br />

your family and friendships; with yourself;<br />

money; at work; and to transform your<br />

wellbeing by releasing you from the<br />

entanglements that are holding you back.<br />

What is this work based on?<br />

The so called 'Orders of Love' – established<br />

by the German psychotherapist and poet<br />

Bert Hellinger (1925 – 2019) – are operating<br />

in every family system. They are affecting us<br />

today in ways that most of us are not even<br />

aware of because they are working in our<br />

subconscious. They are:<br />

1. Acknowledging what is (was) –<br />

Acceptance helps to stop being in denial.<br />

2. Belonging & place – Everyone in the<br />

family system belongs and has a rightful<br />

place.<br />

3. Timeline – The order of birth (older has<br />

priority over younger); age is honourable.<br />

4. Exchange – Giving and receiving need a<br />

balance; and, parents give - children<br />

receive.<br />

28


A family constellation shifts the inner image<br />

we have been carrying of what happened to<br />

us to a new, empowering image that settles<br />

in our soul and creates transformation in our<br />

lives, instantly and over time. In group<br />

Family Constellations everyone in the space<br />

receives insights and shifts, whether setting<br />

up one’s own constellation, participating as a<br />

representative in others’ constellations or<br />

observing the process passively.<br />

HARMONISING HOMEOPATHY<br />

Vinciane Ollington MSC, LCH, MARH, Registered Homeopath<br />

Homeopathy will help whatever your age and level of health.<br />

Moreover, as it is complementary, it will help even if you are<br />

taking allopathic medication.<br />

However, people today are so toxic that I quite often find that<br />

homeopathy is only helping at a superficial level if the toxic root<br />

cause of ill health is not found and addressed first.<br />

Ton Jansen a Dutch homeopath created the Homeopathic Detox<br />

Therapy (HDT) in 1993. HDT, also called Re-balancing therapy or<br />

Harmonising Homeopathy is a new way to approach health<br />

problems. It is aimed at the detoxifying and recuperative process<br />

of the body at a cellular level. The treatment is mild and can offer<br />

a quick and lasting recovery. Ton has cured thousands of patients<br />

with this method of healing. I attended his seminars and have<br />

been using his system with confidence since July 2018. A detailed<br />

timeline of illness and medication will help to see what could be<br />

at the root of current ill-health, e.g. allopathic medication,<br />

synthetic hormones, hormonal disruptors such as bisphenol A in<br />

plastics, vaccines, antibiotics, heavy metals, narcotics, lingering<br />

virus (Epstein-Barr Virus) and more…<br />

The aim of HDT is to remove any lasting side effects, or even<br />

subtle imprints, left within your system from conventional<br />

medication and/or toxins. Sometimes this treatment is for<br />

medications/toxins you have received recently, sometimes from<br />

many years ago. It is quite likely that you are unaware of the<br />

effects left by the medication and these may have become just a<br />

background to you feeling not completely well or they could be<br />

contributing to your current symptoms.<br />

The homeopathic remedies used for HDT are made from the<br />

substance that could have caused the problem to be cured. The<br />

first principle of homeopathic prescribing is to treat “like with<br />

like”, i.e. a substance that can cause a discomfort in a healthy<br />

person can be prescribed in homeopathic potency when a similar<br />

discomfort is observed in a sick person. With HDT we treat the<br />

“same with the same”, i.e. a chemical that creates side effects in a<br />

person will be prescribed in homeopathic potency to stop these<br />

side effects. This is called “isopathy” and is part of homeopathic<br />

prescribing. Contraceptive hormones, allopathic medication,<br />

heavy metals, vaccines and more are diluted and potentised to<br />

make them into the homeopathic remedies prescribed in HDT.<br />

Do not be alarmed by the word “detox”. The detoxification word<br />

can bring to mind all sorts of harsh and difficult ways of<br />

eliminating from the body. This is not the case with these courses<br />

of homeopathic remedies. The aim is to bring a gentle<br />

improvement in your health and to rebalance what has been out<br />

of balance.<br />

A standard homeopathic detox course endeavours to detox one<br />

or 2 causes of ill health in a matter of 8 to 16 weeks. It consists of<br />

different homeopathic pills to be taken on specific days of each<br />

week and in ascending potencies in order to detox at deeper and<br />

deeper levels.<br />

You can stop and start your HDT treatment if you want a break<br />

from it (holiday, illnesses…) as the body will remember the imprint<br />

of what has been achieved before the interruption and will carry<br />

on detoxing at the level it was when you took a pause.<br />

Complete Homeopathy practice is located in the centre of Ripley<br />

BREAST HEALTH<br />

Martin Lewis, Kinesiologist<br />

Quite ironically, what may cause the most unhealthy<br />

restriction of the breasts is not found within the breast tissue<br />

but outside of them. Bras have been found to severely<br />

constrict lymphatic flow in the breasts and impede blood<br />

circulation. Indeed, because of this, bras may just be the single<br />

most important external factor behind the dysfunction of<br />

breast tissue. It is not just a coincidence that breast cancer<br />

rates are highly correlated to the bra’s cultural popularity (an<br />

invention solely promoted by fashion in the 1930s). They offer<br />

no real medical benefit, and even when they were first<br />

promoted, some health professionals spoke out against bras<br />

because of the possible restricting effects it has on the<br />

lymphatic network.<br />

Recent research seems to justify their concerns. A medical<br />

anthropologist, Sidney Singer, performed a very simple<br />

experiment, comparing the incidence of breast cancer in Fiji<br />

within two groups of women: those that wore bras and those<br />

that didn’t. Diet, lifestyle and environment were the same for<br />

both groups. Interestingly, it was discovered that those who<br />

wore bras had the same rate of breast cancer as women living<br />

in the United States, whereas those that went bras-less<br />

experienced little, if any, breast cancer at all. Later, it was also<br />

learned that wearing a bra some 12-14 hours a day actually<br />

increased the production of prolactin, a hormone that acts to<br />

decrease overall blood circulation in the breast.<br />

So, the facts are becoming clear. The constricting properties of<br />

a bra not only make it difficult for safe and healthy lymphatic<br />

flow but also decreases overall blood circulation. When both<br />

lymphatic and blood flow are unduly restricted, cellular debris,<br />

impurities, toxins, environmental pollutants, and pathogens<br />

cannot be safely excreted from the breast.<br />

This leaves a kind of ‘systemic garbage’ that the breasts are left<br />

to ‘stew in’ which, if left too long, could cause infectious<br />

blockages.<br />

If you think about it, it makes all the sense in the world! When<br />

bras are not worn, the breasts are allowed to move<br />

independently with the body, creating a natural and efficient<br />

‘pumping action’ that acts to drain the lymphatic network of the<br />

breasts regularly and easily. Unfortunately, bras restrict such<br />

independent movement of the breasts. Obviously, anything we<br />

can do to re-introduce or accelerate the body’s lymphatic<br />

drainage of the breasts, removing the toxins and carcinogenic<br />

compounds from within the breast tissue, will thus lower the<br />

risk of these compounds causing any problems.<br />

Unfortunately, the American Cancer Society state that: [in<br />

relation to] “underwire bras, internet rumours, and at least one<br />

book have suggested that bras can cause breast cancer by<br />

obstructing lymph flow. There is no scientific or clinical basis<br />

for this claim”.<br />

32


Looking to Breast Health for Answers<br />

While most observations have been highly selective in looking<br />

only for some outside, external agent as the cause, some<br />

research has been directed to looking at the breast tissues<br />

themselves and what may be going wrong inside them to<br />

allow dysfunction to occur. The fact is, it’s unlikely that it’s<br />

any one factor alone. It’s more probable that many elements -<br />

both external and internal are involved, not least the<br />

psychological impact of stress on aspects of caring and<br />

nurturing others - one of the most invasive stresses that is<br />

rarely held up for inspection!<br />

So, what to do?<br />

Bras are likely here to stay, despite their restrictive nature, so<br />

we need to look at ways of getting around these drawbacks,<br />

and help accelerate drainage of the lymphatic network.<br />

Choose the right bra<br />

Most importantly, if a bra is absolutely necessary or preferred,<br />

wear one that is not too restrictive or constricting and does not<br />

contain any wiring.<br />

It should offer support but not entirely interfere with the allnatural<br />

movement of your breasts when walking or moving.<br />

The more free your breasts are to move independently from the<br />

body, the more pumping action will naturally take place, and<br />

that means the more drainage that will naturally occur.<br />

Removing your bra when sleeping will allow the blood to<br />

circulate and lymphatic drainage to flow normally at night.<br />

Promote the release of "good" hormones<br />

Regularly stimulate the nipples by gently rubbing and<br />

squeezing them for a few minutes. This action will naturally<br />

release the hormone oxytocin within the breast tissue.<br />

Remember, wearing a restrictive bra causes the release of the<br />

hormone prolactin which acts to reduce the circulation of<br />

fluids within the breast (something you don’t want)!<br />

Oxytocin is a hormone which will naturally and safely reverse<br />

these effects, especially helping to release any build-up of<br />

fluids and toxins within the breast glands.<br />

Natural Lymphatic Drainage May Help Reduce the Risk of<br />

Breast dis-ease<br />

Your body’s largest lymphatic network stretches from the<br />

breasts to an area just under each arm. This area contains a<br />

network of filtering devices and pathogen storage areas<br />

which act to cleanse the breast and blood of cellular debris<br />

and toxins, and safely hold viruses, bacteria and other<br />

pathogens for destruction and removal by the body’s immune<br />

system.<br />

Such a filtering network is essential to a healthy body. Like<br />

plugged-up plumbing, if the network becomes blocked or<br />

constricted, lumps, cysts and infections can develop which, if<br />

not corrected can create a worsening situation.<br />

Ensuring that the lymphatic network within the breast<br />

remains unconstricted is of critical importance.<br />

It’s reasonable to conclude that restriction of the lymphatic<br />

network and circulation within the breasts could greatly<br />

increase one’s risk of developing breast dis-ease, as it allows the<br />

build-up of carcinogenic compounds without the appropriate<br />

lymphatic drainage. As stated previously, when the lymphatic<br />

network cannot be drained, the body’s garbage cannot be<br />

removed, so poisoning the breast tissue and allowing<br />

dysfunction to ensue. Therefore, anything which is found to<br />

restrict lymphatic flow within the breast is a contraindication of<br />

breast health and should be avoided.<br />

Finding the means to enhance lymphatic drainage could just be<br />

the safest, easiest and most effective way to reduce the risk of<br />

breast dis-ease, and perhaps even prevent it from ever<br />

occurring.<br />

Encourage lymphatic flow<br />

Get into the preventive habit of massaging each breast nightly,<br />

or at least 3 times weekly. Holding each breast gently, begin<br />

squeezing and releasing a small portion of the breast, in a sort<br />

of gentle pumping action, rhythmically working your way up<br />

from the base of the breast to the underarm, always towards<br />

and into the underarm, following the natural direction of<br />

lymphatic flow. Massage each breast in this manner for at least<br />

5 minutes at a time. This action of massage is most important,<br />

as it acts to accelerate lymphatic drainage of the breast tissue,<br />

pushing and pumping the lymphatic vessels clear of debris and<br />

unwanted materials.<br />

33


Be aware of the fact that as you massage each breast, toxins<br />

will be pumped back through the lymphatic network, actually<br />

returning back into your body’s circulation, allowing the body<br />

now to naturally excrete these toxins, or render them<br />

harmless. If your breasts have been storing toxins for some<br />

time, don’t be surprised if suddenly within the first few days<br />

or weeks of massaging, you begin to experience some form of<br />

reaction to the amount of toxins now being released. There is<br />

anecdotal reports of women experiencing mild to medium<br />

cases of hives, sinus pain and headaches, some cramping, etc.<br />

So, don’t be alarmed.<br />

This is actually a rather good sign that the toxins are finally<br />

being released from the breast tissue. Remember, toxins are<br />

not friendly chemicals. In sufficient numbers, they can cause<br />

allergenic reactions.<br />

If you are an individual that is sensitive to these problems,<br />

simply cut back on the amount of initial massaging you do,<br />

allowing the body to slowly get rid of your toxins, reducing<br />

the reactiveness of these chemicals in your body simply by<br />

reducing the amount of toxins the body has to deal with at<br />

one time. You may also wish to try a number of nutritional<br />

products which will help remove the toxins being released in<br />

the body, such as Magnesium, Zinc and Vitamin B6 which<br />

helps the body naturally counter the effects of histamine (and<br />

hence, the allergic reaction) build-up the toxins may have<br />

initiated.<br />

Stay away from pollutants and toxins as much as possible<br />

Avoid eating vegetables which have been grown with pesticides,<br />

and meats which have been raised with hormones and<br />

antibiotics. Low-strength antibiotics used in farm bred cattle,<br />

chicken and fish feed, lowers the effectiveness of your immune<br />

system, and can allow infections to worsen within the lymphatic<br />

network of the breast tissue. The pesticides and hormones in<br />

animal/fish feeds will greatly interfere with your endocrine<br />

system, introducing uncommon (non-human) oestrogen into<br />

your system which may prove carcinogenic when stored within<br />

the tissues of the breasts.<br />

If at all possible, try to abstain from synthetic oestrogens<br />

contained in some hormone replacement therapies, especially<br />

those which are derived from the urine of horses. These contain<br />

non-human oestrogens which have been linked with the risk of<br />

breast dis-ease in women. Non-plant based Hormone<br />

Replacement Therapy increases the risk of breast and other<br />

cancers in women, and further, that the risks of cancer increase<br />

the longer a women stays on the HRT.<br />

If a hormone replacement strategy is needed, use phytoestrogens<br />

which are plant based, completely safe and carry with<br />

it the added benefit of keeping the breasts healthy and actually<br />

increase anti-angiogenetic (tumor reducing) activities.<br />

Supplement with an all natural product<br />

Elderberry is a powerful anti-viral which will help to enhance<br />

the immune system activity so as to fight against any<br />

lymphatic infections occurring within the breasts. Foods that<br />

will also naturally help cleanse and flush the lymphatic system<br />

are raw (to slightly steamed) cabbage, broccoli and<br />

cauliflower, as well as squash. Garlic is also helpful as a<br />

powerful natural anti-oxidant and antibacterial, and best<br />

eaten raw!<br />

Also, the use of whole grains, fruits & vegetables, red and<br />

purple berries, and flaxseed contain wonderful substances<br />

called phyto-estrogens which are known to be anticarcinogenic.<br />

Include these regularly and amply within your<br />

diet. Indeed, a number of studies within the last decade have<br />

demonstrated that a diet high in phyto-estrogens have been<br />

strongly associated with a substantial reduction in the risk of<br />

breast cancer. You may also supplement with standardised,<br />

all-natural phyto-estrogens to ensure adequate phytoestrogen<br />

intake.<br />

Stop using antiperspirants and switch to natural deodorants<br />

Antiperspirants generally use chemicals which cause the<br />

underlying lymph node in the underarm to become<br />

constricted and subsequently block lymphatic drainage.<br />

34


Try abstaining from caffeine, theo-phylines and theobromines<br />

Naturally occurring substances found in coffee, tea, cola and<br />

chocolate, which are well known to stimulate overproduction<br />

of cellular products such as fibrous tissue and cyst fluid.<br />

Women who abstain from these products have generally less<br />

problems with cysts, especially during PMS. Also, make sure<br />

that your intestinal bacterial flora are constantly being<br />

renewed as this has been shown to prevent the re-synthesis<br />

of toxic oestrogen compounds, especially if you are a meat<br />

eater.<br />

And make sure that your bowel movements are regular and<br />

normal as a link between cellular abnormalities in breast fluid<br />

and the frequency of bowel movement has been found.<br />

Women having fewer than 3 bowel movements per week<br />

experience 4.5 times more fibrocystic breast disease than<br />

women who have at least one movement per day. Again<br />

removing toxins from the body is imperative in keeping the<br />

system clean. When the "plumbing" is backed-up, even breast<br />

tissue suffers.<br />

A study out of Sweden and Harvard, adds to the growing<br />

evidence that eating monounsaturated fats, the kind of fats<br />

found in olive and canola oils, may significantly reduce the<br />

risk of breast cancer. In a study consisting of 60,000 women,<br />

those women who ingested about 10 grams of<br />

monounsaturated fats daily (3/4 of tablespoon) cut their risk<br />

of breast cancer in half.<br />

The bottom line is: use and eat olive oil and canola oil. You can<br />

fry with them too, sparingly, and, use butter instead of<br />

margarine in all your cooking and eating needs, and even some<br />

lard (a saturated fat), which is safer than using margarine and<br />

refined cooking oils. Be sure you’re eating twice the amount of<br />

unsaturated to saturated fats in your diet (roughly twice the<br />

amount of olive/canola oil to butter), and make sure your daily<br />

fat intake is only 30% of your calories per day. If you’re worried<br />

about relying solely on your diet for your EFA intake, try<br />

supplementing with Salmon Oil, which contains essential fatty<br />

acids (EFA’s), that are indispensable for good health.<br />

Finally, be sure to share this preventative information with<br />

every female you know. Knowing these simple preventative<br />

procedures goes a long way in reducing the stress and anxiety<br />

caused by the fear of cancer onset. Breast cancer could be just<br />

this easy to prevent. Of course, please continue to follow the<br />

advice of your physician, and report to him/her about any lump<br />

or pain which remains within the breast for more than a month.<br />

Don’t wait to do something about your health right now,<br />

especially when it’s so easy!<br />

These results were similar to previous studies that looked<br />

specifically at olive oil, the main source of monounsaturated<br />

fat in Mediterranean diets. The study suggests that a balance<br />

intake of fats which include mono and polyunsaturated fats,<br />

as well as sources of saturated fats (in a ratio of 2:1), are<br />

essential to good health. Other recent studies also suggest<br />

that it is a good idea to keep away from hydrogenated fats<br />

(margarine and refined cooking and salad oils) as much as<br />

possible, since they generally contain the dangerous and toxic<br />

‘trans’ form of fatty acid, which are known to be a major<br />

cause of heart disease and cancer. The good news is that<br />

butter is really “in” again, being a needed saturated fat, and<br />

much safer than margarine, and tastes better too. But<br />

regardless of the source of fats, 1 gram of fat still contains 9<br />

calories, and studies suggest that the heavier you are, the<br />

higher the risk of breast cancer, especially after menopause.<br />

MARY MAGDALENE'S FINAL LEGACY<br />

written by Julie de Vere Hunt<br />

Chapter V<br />

T H E E S S E N E S , L A K E M A R E O T I S<br />

Out of cloud covered history came the<br />

Essenes. Their ethics and morals were<br />

respected above all people. Their word<br />

was their bond. They ascribed all things<br />

to God. They were frugal, virtuous,<br />

believed in immortality and spiritual<br />

evolution through an individual’s<br />

conscious and unconscious efforts.<br />

The Qumran Essene monastic community<br />

was formed around 200 BC. The Essenes<br />

inexplicably deserted the community<br />

around 31 BC, barely leaving a footprint<br />

in the desert. They returned in the year<br />

6, increasing their numbers and<br />

extending the assembly halls and<br />

baptismal pools.<br />

Around 200 years before the birth of<br />

Yeshua, the leader of the community,<br />

known as the ‘Teacher of Righteousness’,<br />

or the ‘One’, had a vision: an Angel told<br />

him that a great Avatar, the Messiah,<br />

would come to Earth through the<br />

Essenes.<br />

But for this to occur, they must follow<br />

certain disciplines in order to create a<br />

physical body capable of withstanding<br />

the powerful vibrations of the Christ<br />

Spirit, as well as a group energy powerful<br />

enough to open an "energy vortex" or<br />

"doorway" into this space-time dimension<br />

through which the Christ would enter.<br />

The Essene communities were the<br />

doorway, Yeshua was the Avatar.<br />

Yeshua grew up with Mary and Joseph at<br />

the Mount Carmel family community in<br />

Palestine. When he reached 18, he spent<br />

a year at Qumran in preparation for his<br />

ministry.<br />

The Angels also warned the Essenes of<br />

the imminent siege and downfall of<br />

Jerusalem which would take pIace in 70.<br />

Everything of value; writings, gold,<br />

treasure, was taken out of the city and<br />

hidden in the desert.<br />

In 68, the Qumran community once again<br />

disbanded. But not before their writings<br />

had been safely buried in the surrounding<br />

caves for future generations to discover,<br />

at a time when they would be safe and<br />

humanity was ready to receive them.<br />

The Essenes were founded by Enoch and<br />

reintroduced by Moses when he came<br />

down from Mount Sinai with two tablets<br />

of stone. Moses was the giver of the Law,<br />

the One Law.<br />

The Law governs all that takes place in<br />

the universe, and all other universes, all<br />

activity, all creation, mental or physical.<br />

The Law creates life and it creates<br />

thought. The sum total of life on all the<br />

planets in the universe was termed the<br />

cosmic ocean of life. And the sum total of<br />

currents of thought in the universe was<br />

called the cosmic ocean of thought. The<br />

cosmic ocean of life and cosmic ocean of<br />

thought form a dynamic unity of which<br />

man is an inseparable part.<br />

36


Every human being is an individualised<br />

part of the unity. This unity is the Law,<br />

the Eternal Light. Moses saw the Law<br />

broken everywhere. Despite Egypt’s<br />

great military and political might, there<br />

was no law of equality. Misery and<br />

slavery existed everywhere; rich and<br />

poor alike suffered from oppression,<br />

epidemics, and plagues.<br />

Moses observed that ignorance of the<br />

Law, of the laws of nature, was<br />

responsible for all evils, and that the<br />

rulers and the ruled were equally to<br />

blame.<br />

Moses concluded that everything created<br />

as a result of deviation from the Law<br />

destroyed itself and in time disappeared.<br />

Only the Law was eternal.<br />

The abstract idea of the Law was<br />

incorporated into the symbol of a tree,<br />

called the Tree of Life. It portrayed man<br />

as a unit of energy, with thoughts and<br />

emotions constantly communing with the<br />

totalities of energies in the universe.<br />

The Essenes added to the Tree<br />

Angelology - the Science of the Angels.<br />

The angels were the forces in the<br />

universe. The Essenes petitioned the<br />

assistance of these angelic Ones in all<br />

aspects of everyday life.<br />

The Essenes recognized only the positive<br />

and constructive forces in the universe.<br />

The Essene Tree of Life represented<br />

fourteen positive forces; seven heavenly<br />

or cosmic forces and seven earthly<br />

forces. The centre branch represents<br />

God, the centre root Mother Nature. The<br />

roots represented earthly forces and<br />

powers, the seven branches represented<br />

cosmic powers.<br />

Man, in the centre of the Tree, was<br />

surrounded by the heavenly angels above<br />

and the earthly angels below. Contact<br />

with the angelic forces was the very<br />

essence of their daily life. They knew it<br />

took conscious effort to contact them.<br />

The Essenes had the deep wisdom to<br />

understand that these forces were<br />

sources of energy, knowledge and<br />

harmony, and to put himself into<br />

harmony with the Heavenly Father and<br />

Earthly Mother was man’s most<br />

important activity in life.<br />

The Essenes believed that through raising<br />

their consciousness and teaching the<br />

minority who understood and obeyed the<br />

Law, mankind would one day come to<br />

know peace with humanity.<br />

To achieve peace in the world was the<br />

ultimate collective aim of all Essene<br />

communities, including Lake Mareotis.<br />

Empowering Meditation in<br />

Thunderbolt Pose<br />

A meditation to help you connect with your<br />

higher intuition and request guidance from<br />

divine.<br />

Either with your eyes open or closed, visualise<br />

a golden/white light coming down from above<br />

and entering your body through your crown<br />

chakra (just above your head).<br />

See this light spiralling down through and<br />

around your body, until it meets Mother Earth.<br />

Breathe into this connection and invite your<br />

energies to align with this light.<br />

As you inhale, you empower the golden white<br />

light, igniting and fuelling it, making it brighter<br />

and brighter.<br />

<br />

On your exhale allow all tension to leave your<br />

body, mind, spirit and soul. Cleanse and purify<br />

your whole self.<br />

Continue to do this for a few minutes until you<br />

feel you have made a strong connection.<br />

Then, ask Divine and Mother Earth for<br />

guidance to bring peace within your whole<br />

self. Allow messages to come to you.<br />

And now, ask for guidance so you are able to<br />

make the best decisions for your highest good.<br />

You can create an affirmation and continue to<br />

say it for the next few minutes. In time, you<br />

could extend the length of time you remain in<br />

this meditative state and ask specific<br />

questions.<br />

Perhaps you want to try one of the hand<br />

2. Distribute your weight evenly throughout both feet, and<br />

now lift your toes slightly off your mat. When you do<br />

this, focus on placing your weight on the sides of your<br />

heels, feet and the ball of your feet.<br />

3. Visualise a straight line through the middle of your body,<br />

helping to keep your posture straight. Tip: if you are<br />

finding it difficult to keep a straight posture, stand next<br />

to a wall - this will help you.<br />

4. Next, rotate your inner thighs outwards. Ensure your<br />

knees are not locked, keep them soft.<br />

5. Continuing to imagine the line through the centre of<br />

your body, visualise it going through your pubic bone<br />

helping you to bring your tailbone downwards towards<br />

Mother Earth. Ensure you do not arch your back. Pull<br />

your belly button inwards and upwards, lengthen your<br />

spine.<br />

6. Shoulders should be drawn downwards. Relax your<br />

forearms and hands. You can either keep your arms<br />

close to your body or slightly away from your body.<br />

7. Keep your chin parallel to the ground. Relax your face.<br />

The crown of your head reaching towards the universe.<br />

8. If you are an expert at this, close your eyes to go inwards<br />

and reach up with your arms. Do not arch your back<br />

especially if you struggle with back problems.<br />

Creates<br />

<br />

1. Stand in Mountain Pose and visualise roots growing out<br />

from your ankles and into the ground, just like a tree, the<br />

roots dig deep into Mother Earth. These roots are<br />

anchoring you into a strong sturdy position.<br />

2. Take a breath in and move your weight into your left<br />

foot. Ensure you are distributing all your weight evenly<br />

in your left foot (toes should be relaxed).<br />

3. Bend the right knee and draw it into your chest. Reach<br />

down and hold your inner ankle and place your foot to<br />

your inner left thigh (image on left). If you can't keep the<br />

foot so high on your thigh, place it below your knee - do<br />

not place it on your knee.<br />

4. Gently press your inner left thigh against the right foot<br />

and also push your right foot towards the left thigh.<br />

5. You may rest your hands on your hips or bring them to a<br />

prayer position.<br />

6. Feel yourself lengthen your tailbone towards Mother<br />

Earth.<br />

7. Pull your belly button in and upwards.<br />

8. Keep visualising roots holding you firmly grounded and<br />

strong. Helping you to maintain a good balance.<br />

9. Visualise an energy line going from the roots, in a<br />

straight line through the centre of your body and up<br />

towards the universe through your crown chakra.<br />

10. Soften your gaze.<br />

11. If you feel drawn to it, you can reach your arms up above<br />

your head, keeping them shoulder-distance apart and<br />

reaching up or placing your hands together in prayer<br />

position.<br />

12. After a few minutes, you can lower your right leg and<br />

then repeat on the other side.<br />

Artichoke Risotto<br />

Artichokes originally come from the Mediterranean and<br />

are known as unbloomed flowers. As well as peas,<br />

artichokes are one of the oldest vegetables to man.<br />

Artichokes are seasonal in the UK now, so let us make use<br />

of locally grown vegetables.<br />

Artichokes are low in carbohydrates and fat and high in<br />

fibre. As well as being a good source of antioxidants they<br />

are full of vitamins C and K, phosphorus, and magnesium.<br />

They have been known to increase the friendly bacteria in<br />

your gut to improve digestive health.<br />

Ingredients<br />

1 tbsp olive oil<br />

1 red onion (finely diced)<br />

salt and pepper (for seasoning)<br />

2 sweet red peppers (chopped)<br />

1 tsp chilli flakes (or less depending on your taste)<br />

300g brown rice (washed)<br />

1ltr of vegetable stock (have a little extra just in case)<br />

300g artichoke hearts (steamed for 20 mins and drained)<br />

Bunch of parsley and coriander (finely chopped)<br />

Steps<br />

1. Heat the olive oil and cook the onions until soft and<br />

transparent. Season with salt and pepper and then<br />

add the red peppers. Cook until soft.<br />

2. Add the chillis and stir in the rice. Increase the heat<br />

and add 2 cups of stock and bring to a boil. Simmer<br />

for 45 mins, adding the remaining stock a little at a<br />

time. Cook until the rice has absorbed all the stock.<br />

3. Gently stir in all the artichokes and turn off the heat<br />

once they are warmed through. Season as required.<br />

Cover the pan with a lid and allow the pot to stand<br />

for 10 mins before serving - this helps all the flavours<br />

to come together.<br />

4. Once plated, add the parsley and coriander.<br />

Who doesn't like hummus!!!<br />

Spinach is seasonal at the moment so let's use it in this<br />

lovely tangy lemony hummus. Spinach is really great if<br />

you are a practising vegan. It is packed with Vitamins C, K,<br />

A, B6, B12 and E.<br />

Add a couple of handfuls of spinach to your sweet or<br />

savoury smoothies, to help with cleansing your body and<br />

skin!<br />

Pine nuts are seeds extracted from pine cones. They are<br />

high in protein, fibre, and contain vitamins E and K,<br />

copper, iron and magnesium - just to name a few.<br />

Spinach Hummus<br />

Ingredients<br />

150g cooked chickpeas (tinned works well)<br />

100g baby spinach<br />

2 cloves of garlic<br />

1 large lemon (zest and juice)<br />

1 tbsp tahini<br />

60 ml extra virgin olive oil<br />

salt and pepper<br />

Handful of pine nuts<br />

Steps<br />

1. For approx 1-minute blend chickpeas, spinach, garlic,<br />

lemon juice, lemon zest and tahini.<br />

2. Slowly drizzle the oil whilst the processor is on high.<br />

3. If you want a thinner consistency, add a few<br />

tablespoons of water until you get the perfect<br />

texture.<br />

4. In a dry pan, toast the pine nuts until they turn light<br />

brown.<br />

5. Transfer the hummus into a bowl and sprinkle the<br />

pine nuts over the top. If you wish to, you can drizzle<br />

a little bit of extra virgin olive oil over it too.<br />

6. Serve with gluten-free toasted sour bread.<br />
