</div>
<div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a"><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Dear friends, today Thursday February 22 2024 and Saturday February 24 2024 bring a special kind of energy into our awareness. As the full moon energies approach, these two last energetic gateways in February are helping us to find a new and deeper point of inner balance.</span></div>
<div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">...</span></div>
</div>
<div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a"><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">On top of this, two new intense X class solar flares just took place in our Sun, triggering even more energetic processes within our systems. If you are energy sensitive - expect a few more symptoms to manifest these days.</span></div>
<div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">...</span></div>
<div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">As I mentioned in previous posts, the nervous system and the pineal gland are the main targets under these energetic waves, triggering possible migraines, dizziness, lack of focus and confusion, changes in body temperature, and many other visual and hearing issues. Please stay calm, well hydrated, and rest as needed. The energies are quite strong at the moment.</span></div>
<div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">...</span></div>
</div>
<div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a"><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The two energy portals today and on Saturday resonate with the vibrations of numbers 2 and 4. The energy vibration of number 2 is usually associated with polarities and duality: positive/negative, male/female, day/night, black/white, yin/yang. The number 2 symbolizes the principle of coming together and finding a new common ground.</span></div>
<div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">...</span></div>
<div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Number 2 emanates an energy of balance, peace and diplomacy, intuition, emotion and sensitivity. On the other hand, number 4 has a more practical aspect to it, since the attributes that resonate with this number are usually connected with organization, establishing order, and bringing ideas and plans into material form.</span> <span style="font-size: 12pt;">A number 4 vibration maintains stability within a system so we can make our dreams a reality.</span></div>
<div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">...</span></div>
</div>
<div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a"><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Today’s portal 2:22:24, and Saturday’s 2:24:24, brings with it an energy of inner balance so that we are not controlled by matter in the physical world, but are able to find a perfect balance between earth and heaven, reconnecting with the spiritual dimension that is always present within and around us.</span></div>
<div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">...</span></div>
</div>
<div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a"><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The energy of these portals will be with us this whole weekend as they potentiate the energies of the Full moon in Virgo also on Saturday. As you attune your consciousness and awareness to this particular numerical energy, your energy fields begin to resonate with the attributes of these numbers.</span></div>
<div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">...</span></div>
<div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This energy will be assisting us to unify within us the polarities that are preventing us from seeing a unified perspective of life. As we continue our path to empowerment during this 2024 Dragon year, we will eventually need to find a new place of integration within us, a new higher vibrational state that will allow us to fully express who we truly are.</span></div>

Where do you see yourself by the end of the year? What aspects of your inner self would need a deeper balance and integration in order to get there?</span></div>
<div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">...</span></div>
<div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">As you think about these issues, allow the 2:22:24 and 2:24:24 energies to merge with your awareness. Let this resonance do the rest of the work. Trust and have faith in this process, you are laying down the energetic foundations for a more stable 2024 timeline. All in divine timing and according to your soul’s journey.</span></div>
<div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">...</span></div>

This 2024 timeline activation will jumpstart your creative process, boost your self-confidence, and renew your spiritual strength.</span></div>
<div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">...</span></div>
<div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">These light codes will also open up your consciousness to the new possibilities waiting for you in your personal 2024 timeline. If you feel you still need to release some of the emotional aspects of 2023, you can use the “Cord Cutting” transmission in the Perennial Activations section, and the “Leaving the Past in the Past” transmission in Level II. Many people are reporting amazing benefits and deep releases by working with these particular activations.</span></div>
<div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">...</span></div>
<div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">You can also explore all the other activations in the library, simply let your intuition guide you:</span></div>

If there are deep shadow aspects that need to be balanced, they will be brought up to surface and may manifest as random body aches and pains, anxiety, and fatigue. Please listen to your body and rest as much as needed.</span></div>

<p>This coming Friday, on the night of February 10-11, there will be a special lunar eclipse taking place on a full snow moon. The eclipse will be visible for those in North America, Europe, Africa, and most of Asia, so sky gazers across the world can look up to watch it, weather permitting. During the eclipse the moon will appear to be cast in subtle, silvery darkness, as the Earth’s shadow falls upon it.</p>
<p>Lunar eclipses occur when the sun, Earth, and moon all line up in that respective order. As the moon passes behind our planet and enters into the Earth’s umbra, its shadow, the resulting alignment causes the shadow to fall upon the moon, making it noticeably appear a few shades darker. However, since this lunar eclipse is penumbral, rather than total or partial, the moon won’t actually enter the umbra. Instead, it just barely misses the Earth’s strong inner shadow and as such will be immersed in the outer weaker portion of the Earth’s shadow, which is called the penumbra. That’s why this eclipse will be much subtle, as compared to a total or partial lunar eclipse.</p>
<p>Check out this video below for a taste of what you can expect:</p>
<p></p>
<p>From a historical perspective, the full moon in February is traditionally known as a snow moon because the month is often both the coldest time of year and when snowfall tends to be the heaviest. However, what is even more interesting are the astrological implications of this month’s full snow moon and lunar eclipse taking place in Leo. The celestial events usher in a time for changes and new beginnings and the resulting shift in energy will have a profound impact on people’s lives. So while this month’s beautiful eclipse may be fleeting, in the weeks and months ahead you will end up feeling its effects in a very meaningful way!</p>
<p>Even though each and every one of us will experience a personal change, which may be slight or life-altering, here are the more significant ways in which this lunar eclipse may affect us:</p>
<p>Many of us will find a renewed sense of purpose and direction within ourselves, the type of which has been lacking in our lives lately. Eclipses are always times of powerful change and this one is highlighted by the fact that it occurs in Leo. As such, the fiery, passionate, dominant characteristics of the noble and courageous leader that Leo embodies will be at the forefront of even the most timid person’s personality. When the influential traits of Leo are combined with this new sense of purpose, expect a lot of people to finally take back control of their lives and futures.</p>
<p>Check out this video below for a taste of what you can expect:</p>
<p></p>
<p>On a related level, many of us will also begin to stop caring so much about what other people think of us and the decisions we make. We will let go and simply trust in the path we are choosing to push forward on. Where in the past we’d be held back by opinions and judgments coming from others, such things will no longer have any negative or preventative effects on us. With the shift in energy comes a shift in our thinking and we’ll start deciding things on our own, for ourselves.</p>
<p>Some people will be more confident and conscious of their choices. Whether it be a major life decision or a seemingly inconsequential one, they will go with their gut feelings and stick with whatever it is they decide. This will be due in part to a major re-focus in our self-awareness and a more balanced, internal centering that we will turn inwards on ourselves. As a result, we’ll be entering a much happier and more enlightened phase of our lives.</p>
<p>A lot of us will find that things are finally coming to an end and are being completed. This is a very broad and general effect lunar eclipses always seem to usher in, and as such the sense of finality may appear in essentially any area of our lives. It may manifest as a relationship that has finally burned itself out and now you can move on from it, or perhaps you’ll wrap up a project that you’ve been working on for ages. Regardless of where these endings occur, they will mark the last of things which are over and done with! It always feels good to say goodbye and now you can move on to bigger and better things.</p>
<p>Those are just a few of the stronger effects that the full snow moon lunar eclipse may have on any one of us. Overall, the lunar events mark the beginning of a number of transformations that we will each go through in the year ahead, and it has only just gotten started!</p>

<p><span>by Arjun Walia; </span><a href="http://www.collective-evolution.com/2017/01/31/the-legend-of-shambhala-a-hidden-land-that-exists-within-our-own/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Collective Evolution</a><span> </span><br/> <br/> <span>Shambhala is round but depicted as an eight-petalled lotus blossom, which is a symbol of the heart Chakra (</span><a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-haBIdRUwtMk/WJRzghx0fII/AAAAAAAAJLQ/MXDDMqaZ0RUo1_n18TWUygk0YZ4vFgQGACLcB/s1600/sham.jpg" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">represented in this picture</a><span>). </span><br/>
<br/>
<span>Many ancient texts refer to ‘magical’ and ‘mythical’ lands, which is fascinating, particularly when you consider how much of the writings in ancient Buddhism, Vedic philosophy, or other Eastern traditions is being confirmed by modern day science. Quantum physics in particular has gained a lot of momentum recently. One great example is the conundrum of consciousness, which is directly correlated with quantum physics and goes hand in hand with other realms of existence. Perhaps this is why some of </span><a href="http://www.collective-evolution.com/2014/07/23/the-influence-vedic-philosophy-had-on-nikola-teslas-idea-of-free-energy/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Nikola Tesla’s ideas were influenced by ancient Eastern philosophy</a><span>. Not many people know this, but most of our pioneering scientists were also mystics, including Issac Newton, who studied alchemy, among other subjects. </span><br/>
<br/>
</p>
<div class="separator"><a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-gbgU-nWrh0I/WJN0ZXEh0II/AAAAAAAAJLA/tYjArt8FzQgih7M5DNX45W68Lyhsyi3KQCLcB/s1600/The%2BLegend%2Bof%2BShambhala.JPG"><img border="0" height="418" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-gbgU-nWrh0I/WJN0ZXEh0II/AAAAAAAAJLA/tYjArt8FzQgih7M5DNX45W68Lyhsyi3KQCLcB/s640/The%2BLegend%2Bof%2BShambhala.JPG" width="640"/></a></div>
<blockquote>“Broadly speaking, although there are some differences, I think Buddhist philosophy and Quantum Mechanics can shake hands on their view of the world. We can see in these great examples the fruits of human thinking. Regardless of the admiration we feel for these great thinkers, we should not lose sight of the fact that they were human beings just as we are.” – The Dalai Lama (<a href="http://www.dalailama.com/news/post/905-quantum-physics---his-holiness-the-dalai-lama-participates-in-the-26th-mind--life-meeting-at-drepung---day-2" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">source</a>) <br/> <a name="more" id="more"></a></blockquote>
<p><span>This is precisely why we shouldn’t be so quick to dismiss other possible knowledge that remains hidden within ancient texts, especially when evidence is increasingly proving the strength of the connection between ancient wisdom and modern day knowledge. </span><br/> <br/> <span>We are surprisingly and inexplicably selective about which parts of ancient writings we hold to be true, and which we dismiss as fantasy. We might take, for example, a description of ancient Greek society written by a philosopher living at the time, such as Plato or Socrates, at face value, yet when confronted with the same philosopher’s description of an advanced ancient civilization, find some excuse to ignore it. We can take Plato’s description of things that are believable to the mind and accept them as fact, but as soon as we are confronted with something outside our known experience, our minds shut down, even in the face of mounting evidence lending credibility to many of these ‘mythical’ stories. </span><br/>
<br/>
<span>To read more about Plato’s description of the Lost Kingdom of Atlantis, </span><a href="http://www.collective-evolution.com/2016/01/19/a-detailed-description-of-the-lost-land-of-atlantis-the-real-reason-for-their-downfall/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">you can refer to this article</a><span>. </span><br/>
<br/>
<span>Shambhala</span><span> </span><br/>
<br/>
<span>Several ancient texts from various traditions mention beings from ‘another world’ that exist within our own. One such world, referenced in Tibetan Buddhist and Hindu traditions, is Shambhala, which is a hidden kingdom within our own planet, a place which we do not understand and is difficult to find. </span><br/>
<br/>
<span>It’s a “Spiritual” Place</span><span> </span><br/>
<br/>
<span>According to the Dalai Lama at a speech he gave in 1985 during the </span><a href="http://dalailama.com/teachings/kalachakra-initiations" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Kalachakra Initiations</a><span>: </span></p>
<blockquote>Although those with special affiliation may actually be able to go there through their karmic connection, nevertheless it is not a physical place that we can actually find. We can only say that it is a pure land, a pure land in the human realm. And unless one has the merit and the actual karmic association, one cannot actually arrive there. (<a href="https://www.google.ca/#q=Although+those+with+special+affiliation+may+actually+be+able+to+go+there+through+their+karmic+connection%2C+nevertheless+it+is+not+a+physical++place+that+we+can+actually+find.+We+can+only+say+that+it+is+a+pure+land%2C+a+pure+land+in+the+human+realm.+And+unless+one+has+the+merit+and++the+actual+karmic+association%2C+one+cannot+actually+arrive+there" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">sources</a>)</blockquote>
<p><span>This closely resembles descriptions of the spiritual principles that once guided Atlantis given by Plato and other scholars. According to Manly P. Hall, author, historian, and 33rd degree mason: </span></p>
<blockquote>Before Atlantis sank, its spiritually illuminated Initiates, who realized that their land was doomed because it had departed from the Path of Light, withdrew from the ill fated continent. Carrying with them the sacred and secret doctrine, these Atlanteans established themselves in Egypt, where they became its first divine rulers. Nearly all the great cosmologic myths forming the foundation of the various sacred books of the world are based upon the Atlantean Mystery Rituals. (<a href="https://www.amazon.ca/The-Secret-Teachings-All-Ages/dp/1461013135" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">source</a>)</blockquote>
<p><span>And according to the modern </span><a href="http://www.theosophy-nw.org/theosnw/ctg/s-sam.htm" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">theosophical tradition</a><span>: </span></p>
<blockquote>Sambhala, however, although no erudite Orientalist has yet succeeded in locating it geographically, is an actual land or district, the seat of the greatest brotherhood of spiritual adepts and their chiefs on earth today. From Sambhala at certain times in the history of the world, or more accurately of our own fifth root-race, come forth the messengers or envoys for spiritual and intellectual work among men.</blockquote>

<p><br/> <span>Edwin Bernbaum, Ph.D., a lecturer, author, mountaineer, and scholar of comparative religion and mythology, writes that Shambhala is round but depicted as an eight-petalled lotus blossom, which is a symbol of the heart Chakra (left). He also makes it clear in his book, The Way To Shambhala, that the way is not clear. Shambhala is a physical place existing within the human realm, but it’s also a spiritual, even supernatural place, which many also believe exists within another dimension. </span><br/> <br/>
<span>Michael Wood, a BBC journalist, based on his research describes it as a lost kingdom buried somewhere in the Himalayas, and writes about how the name Shambhala first appears in a text known as the Kalachakra tantra – or Wheel of Time teaching. This Kalachakra doctrine belongs to the highest level of Buddhist Mahayana teaching. </span><br/>
<br/>
<span>He writes that in Shambhala, the people live in peace and harmony, and are faithful to the principles of Buddhist. In this land, war, grief and sorrow were completely unknown. According to Michael, one commentator on the Kalachakra tantra puts it like this: </span></p>
<blockquote>The land of Shambhala lies in a valley. It is only approachable through a ring of snow peaks like the petals of a lotus … At the centre is a nine-storey crystal mountain which stands over a sacred lake, and a palace adorned with lapis, coral, gems and pearls. Shambala is a kingdom where humanity’s wisdom is spared from the destructions and corruptions of time and history, ready to save the world in its hour of need. <br/> <br/> The prophecy of Shambala states that each of its 32 kings will rule for 100 years. As their reigns pass, conditions in the outside world will deteriorate. Men will become obsessed with war and pursue power for its own sake and materialism will triumph over all spiritual life. Eventually an evil tyrant will emerge to oppress the earth in a despotic reign of terror. But just when the world seems on the brink of total downfall and destruction, the mists will lift to reveal the icy mountains of Shambala. Then the 32nd king of Shambala, Rudra Cakrin, will lead a mighty army against the tyrant and his supporters and in a last great battle, they will be destroyed and peace restored. (<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/ancient/cultures/shangri_la_01.shtml#four">source</a>)(<a href="http://www.pbs.org/mythsandheroes/tguide_shangrila.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">source</a>)</blockquote>
<p><span>Who Is Down There? What Evidence Do We Have?</span><span> </span><br/> <br/> <span>Who really knows? Legends speak of those who have wandered to the land and never returned, or have died making the journey, while more recently, connections have been made with the UFO/extraterrestrial phenomenon. You might not know this, but </span><a href="http://www.collective-evolution.com/2014/04/01/this-is-what-happens-when-a-ufo-is-tracked-on-military-radar/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">UFOs are commonly tracked on air and ground radar, while simultaneously watched by the pilots who are sent out to intercept them</a><span>. Thousands of documents are available for public viewing, and hundreds of high ranking whistleblowers have shared their stories. If you would like to learn more about the UFO/ET phenomenon and see some of this evidence yourself, feel free to explore the exopolitcs section of our website. As former </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yO0T05kQkbs" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">NASA astronaut and Princeton physics professor Dr. Brian O’Leary has said</a><span>, “there is abundant evidence that we are being contacted, that civilizations have been visiting us for a very long time.” </span><br/>
<br/>
<span>Based on my personal research into UFOs and extraterrestrials, which spans more than 10 years, stories of flying saucers coming in and out of the ocean are quite common. They are referred to as underwater submerged objects, and contactees, which today number in the millions, often speak of beings existing inside of our own planet — spiritual beings, ‘light beings’ of great intelligence. </span><br/>
<br/>
<span>In addition to these rumours, there are people who claim to have actually experienced this place. Admiral Richard Byrd, a high ranking officer in the United States Navy who received a medal of honour and </span><a href="http://video.nationalgeographic.com/video/antarctica_byrdexpedition" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">was the very first man to fly over the South Pole</a><span>, supposedly journeyed to the hollow Earth. Admiral Byrd also flew directly over the North Pole, writing that he saw an opening in the top. His diary describes his adventure into the opening, where he saw lakes, rivers, green vegetation, and more. He participated in many expeditions to the North Pole, with one being a government-backed program called operation </span><a href="http://www.airspacemag.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Highjump</a><span>. Organized by Admiral Byrd, its primary goal was to establish an Antarctic research base. He claims to have been greeted by a flying machine and this is when he first interacted with the beings that existed in a place that is known to many as “Agartha.” The beings told him they were concerned with the development of nuclear weapons and the overall well-being of the planet. </span><br/>
<br/>
<a href="https://www.google.ca/#q=nicholas+roerich+museum" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Nicholas Roerich</a><span> (1874-1947), a well known Russian explorer, also writes of Shambhala being located in the north. He travelled through Mongolia and China to the borders of Tibet, and says that, during a conversation with a Lama, he was told that the great “Shabmhala is far beyond the ocean. It is the mighty heavenly domain. It has nothing to do with our Earth. Only in some places, in the Far North, can you discern the resplendent rays of Shambhala.” He claimed the entrance was deep in the high mountains. The Lama also told Roerich: </span></p>
<blockquote>Shambhala is ever vigilant in the cause of mankind: he sees all the events of earth in his ‘magic mirror’ and the might of his thought penetrates into far-off lands. Uncountable are the inhabitants of Shamhala. Numerous are the splendid new forces and achievements which are being prepared there for humanity. <br/> <br/> <b>(Nicholas Roerich, Shambhala: In search of the new era, Rochester, VE: Inner Traditions, 1990)</b></blockquote>
<p><span>Based on my research, if there is an entrance, it’s in Antarctica or deep within several mountain ranges, including the Himalayas. And one common theme about Shambhala is that its secrets are well guarded, and cannot be reached unless one is called there. </span><br/> <br/> <span>Want To Learn More?</span><span> </span><br/>
<br/>
<span>My knowledge on Shambhala is next to nothing, and it’s hard to find credible sources for ancient stories such as these. A great place to start seems to be the work of Edwin Bernbaum. He’s certainly done his research, as mentioned in the J</span><a href="http://journals.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/index.php/jiabs/article/view/8587/2494" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">ournal of The International Association of Buddhist Studies</a><span>. That publication gives a description of his work, </span><a href="https://www.amazon.ca/Way-Shambhala-Edwin-Bernbaum/dp/0385127944" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">his book</a><span>, and a few other links that can get you started. He has conducted research and published on a number of topics, including listing and microfilming rare Tibetan texts in the Himalayas, Tibetan myths and legends of hidden valleys, and myth and art along the Silk Route of western China. </span><br/>
<br/>
<span>What Do We Currently Know Of Earths Core?</span><span> </span><br/>
<br/>
<span>Our current understanding about the makeup of Earth’s core is a theory, based on assumption that is taught as fact. The evidence for the composition of the Earth’s core is decent, however indirect. We have no means for directly sampling the deep interior of the Earth, humans (apparently, if they have we have not been privy to that information) have not been able to access that part of our planet. No one has ever ‘seen’ the inside of our planet, or any other planet for that matter. That being said, we do have instrumentation that can help us ‘see’ the unseen, but the theory of Earth’s core remains just that, a theory. </span><br/>
<br/>
<span>Again, perhaps the Hollow Earth idea is a dimensional thing, who really knows. Many great minds from the past up until the present day believe there to be something unconventional that lay beneath our feet. For example, Leonhard Euler, a Swiss mathematician and physicist. He produced a large portion of modern mathematical terminology and notation, more specifically the notion of mathematical function. He is considered to be one the greatest mathematicians of all time, and has approximately one thousand publications. </span><a href="http://eulerarchive.maa.org/hedi/HEDI-2007-04.pdf" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">He believed the Earth was hollow as well as inhabited</a><span>. </span></p>

<p> </p>
<p><span>Beautiful friend,</span></p>
<p><span>How good it is to know that we have the opportunity to connect in this way. There's a lot for us to catch up on, so let's get right to it.</span></p>
<p><strong><span>The Sacred Star Rises</span></strong></p>
<p><span>On April 15, 2016 at 1:11 pm ET / 6:11 pm GMT (World Time), a global unconditional love healing activation took place at the United Nations building, so that peace and compassion could sweep over the planet in a very real and palpable way.</span></p>
<p><span>Little did we know that much more than that was about to occur.</span></p>
<p><span>During the healing activation, a sleeping giant awakened, known as the Merkaba of humanity. More on that in just a moment.</span></p>
<p><span>Although the ground zero (middle point) of the global healing activation took place at the United Nations, it was the support of thousands of Lightworkers, Way-Showers, Healers, and Empaths from around the world that ensured the full awakening of the sacred Merkaba (also known as the Ascension Star) in the consciousness of humanity.</span><br/></p>
<p><span>This was unprecedented, because up until April 15, the Merkaba (or Mer-Ka-Ba) of most of humanity had lain dormant and nonfunctional, due to the fact that most people were still operating from the mind, rather than the heart.</span></p>
<p><span>This has now changed, and I'll share why a bit later in the forecast.</span></p>
<p><strong><span>What is the Mer-Ka-Ba?</span></strong></p>
<p><span>The word Mer-Ka-Ba comes from the ancient Egyptian term for Lightbody: Mer is Light, Ka is spirit, and Ba is body. The Mer-Ka-Ba is an electro-magnetic field, shaped in a uniquely configured pattern of sacred geometry.</span><br/></p>
<p><span>This energy field is found in all living things in Creation. Its pattern is formed in the shape of a star tetrahedron—a three-dimensional, eight-pointed star in the shape of two pyramids, one inside the other.</span></p>
<p> <img src="http://emmanueldagher.com/images/mt_01.gif" alt="mt 01"/></p>
<p><span>One of the main roles of the Mer-Ka-Ba is to align the mind, body, and heart. This alignment then allows the Merkaba to serve as the vehicle that transports the Spirit and the body into higher states of existence and higher dimensions. This usually manifests in several ways.</span></p>
<p><span>The Mer-Ka-Ba is often awakened through specific, dedicated meditative breathing methods and mindfulness-expanding practices. It can also be awakened through consistent acts and thoughts of pure love, service, compassion, acceptance, integrity, and kindness. The Self would also be included as one of the recipients of these gifts.</span></p>
<p><span>The Merkaba is the manifestation of the Sacred Union of the Divine Feminine and the Divine Masculine within all living things. The Merkaba also balances the Feminine and Masculine energy within all living things, creating an environment for a peaceful existence, which then becomes each being's default vibrational setting. It enables us to experience expanded states of awareness, and restores the full remembering of who we are as Spiritual Beings.</span></p>
<p><span>Even though each living being has its own Merkaba, together we also have a collective Merkaba.</span></p>
<p><em><span>Together, on April 15, 2016, thousands of us awakened the Merkaba of humanity.</span></em></p>
<p><strong><span>Humanity's Merkaba</span></strong></p>
<p><span>When the collective Merkaba is dormant, no matter how much of our time we dedicate to our spiritual practice, more often than not, it still feels quite challenging, like we're climbing a tall mountain.</span></p>
<p><span>But now that together we have awakened humanity's Merkaba, more and more people around the world will awaken to the truth of who they really are.</span></p>
<p><span>This will make it much easier for us to expand our own individual consciousness, remain steadfast in our spiritual practice, share our spiritual gifts openly, and feel more connected to our Higher Self than ever before. To those who are quite spiritual, this is the "Holy Grail" we often hear about from the ancient texts: "As above, so below."</span></p>
<p><span>In addition, the fear that the collective has been choosing to take part in will take a major backseat over the coming days, months, and years, as a result of humanity's awakened Merkaba. As this happens, feeling connected to our Spirit and to one another, and practicing acts of compassion for all of life, will take center stage.</span></p>
<p><span>Instead of just going through the mundane motions of the old day-to-day patterns of life, to just "get by," our desire and motivation to feel truly alive will emerge at the forefront.</span></p>
<p><span>Many of us are already feeling this now, and it's just the beginning! Can you imagine what the world will look like when people actually start choosing to feel alive through natural means, rather than numbing themselves through outdated patterns of fear and victim consciousness?</span></p>
<p><span>This is BIG. It will collectively move us even more quickly in the direction of holistic, organic, transparent, green living.</span></p>
<p><strong><span>How did all of this happen?</span></strong></p>
<p><span>Each person who was able to be physically present at the April 15 event at the United Nations served as an ambassador of peace and compassion on behalf of all humanity.</span></p>
<p><span>Each person who attended became a surrogate for the thousands of people around the world who joined us in Spirit at the exact time of the global healing activation.</span></p>
<p><span>Those who joined us in Spirit held the space of the "compassionate observer," serving as the I AM presence, and anchoring nourishing and healing vibrations of compassion, unconditional love, and acceptance for all of humanity, including themselves.</span></p>
<p><span>The observers acknowledged that humanity has simply done the best that it could with the amount of awareness that it has had over time.</span></p>
<p><span>Those who served as compassionate observers may have felt an overwhelming sense of joy, and may have been moved to tears due to the amount of Love and Life being poured into our collective consciousness at that moment.</span></p>
<p><span>Those of us who were physically present at the United Nations combined our energies to form an energetic global Unconditional Love and Christ Consciousness grid. ("Christ" as in the original Greek word christos, meaning "crystalline" or Light-based consciousness.)</span></p>
<p><span>We began by looking into each other's eyes and affirming the following:</span></p>
<p><span>"I see you, I love you, and I know who you really are. On behalf of humanity, I am so sorry that you may have ever felt otherwise. I see you, I love you, and I know who you really are. Thank you for seeing, loving, and knowing who I really am. We are One family. And so it is!"</span></p>
<p><span>We made sure to include all of our multidimensional selves from past, present, and future. We also included all of our ancestors, guides, and Beings of Light in service to the Law of One on all levels, lifetimes, and languages. The word "healing" in that moment became an understatement, as to what began taking place.</span></p>
<p><span>We then each visualized ourselves lovingly holding a miniature Earth in our hands, the size of a basketball. These mini-Earths acted as surrogates to our actual Earth.</span></p>
<p><span>We then visualized these mini-Earths being drenched with unconditional love and compassion from our heart space. We saw this love from our heart as represented by the Pink Crystal Light of the Divine Feminine, and the Emerald Green Crystal Light of the Divine Masculine.</span></p>
<p><span>We saw these luminous lights radiate outwards from our hearts, braiding themselves together and saturating every cell, fiber, and molecule of the Earths in our hands, and of every living being inhabiting the Earth.</span><br/> <span>We then held hands and merged our visions together, to anchor them into One unified Light field of Unconditional Love and Christ Consciousness. We affirmed that the heart and mind of every being on the planet now be fully restored to their most pristine and awakened state, in the highest and most Divine timing for them.</span></p>
<p><span>During this part of the global healing activation, many of us could feel the Earth beneath us move. Mind you, we were in a tall skyscraper, and I will share the significance of that shortly.</span></p>
<p><span>The amount of love in the room was very thick and palpable to everyone there. Something even deeper than what we had at first intended had just occurred, though no one could really put their finger on it ... yet.</span></p>
<p><strong><span>Amazing Synchronicities</span></strong></p>
<p><span>After the global healing activation was completed, many synchronicities began to occur. I will share the biggest one with you.</span></p>
<p><span>The following day, at my next healing event in New York City, one of our "peace and compassion" ambassadors who had attended the U.N. event shared the following with me.</span></p>
<p><span>As she is a local, she mentioned that Manhattan itself is actually a sacred vortex, because of the magnetic crystals underneath the city. She mentioned that the only way that the land is able to sustain so many tall buildings, like no other city in the world can, is because of these powerful crystals underneath it.</span></p>
<p><span>Many of us know that crystals are amplifiers of energy. But we hadn't realized that they would amplify our energy!</span></p>
<p><span>The "goose bump" moment came when that day, several of the guests who had also attended the U.N. event were mentioning the dreams they'd had the night before. Several of them were freaking each other out, because they were finding that they had all had similar dreams.</span></p>
<p><span>Now, I wouldn't usually get too involved in a conversation taking place among guests at an event, but I quickly realized that what they were sharing was almost exactly what I had seen and experienced in my own dreams the night before!</span></p>
<p><span>The shared dream/vision the five of us had had (and none of us had ever met before that day) was of a golden, sacred geometric, grid-like veil that came down from the sky and anchored itself over the whole planet, falling gently down upon the Earth and covering it like a golden blanket.</span></p>
<p><span>The way they were describing this grid-like veil was right in alignment with what I had seen in my own dream.</span></p>
<p><span>The pattern of this grid was in the shape of a star tetrahedron—the three-dimensional, eight-pointed star made from the combining of two pyramids.</span></p>
<p><span>A Merkaba!</span></p>
<p><span>Holy moly! We all freaked out with excitement and acted like little kids for a bit, giving each other the biggest hugs I think I've ever experienced.</span></p>
<p><span>I knew that this was the confirmation I needed to fully understand what had taken place the day before, at the United Nations event. It still blows my mind to think about it.</span></p>
<p><span>There were a few other confirmations and synchronicities, but this one was the most relevant and specific to the awakening of humanity's Merkaba.</span></p>
<p><strong><span>Connecting with the Merkaba</span></strong></p>
<p><span>If you would like to connect even more with the energies of the Merkaba, so that it can support your continued spiritual expansion, I recommend printing out a picture of one that you really enjoy, and looking at it several times a day.</span></p>
<p><span>You could also put this picture underneath your bed, so that its energies are present, lifting and expanding your own energies as you sleep.</span></p>
<p><span>There are also Merkaba pedants and other fun 3D version of them that you can wear or have in your home.</span></p>
<p><span><strong><span>The After Effects and the Five Retrogrades</span></strong></span></p>
<p><span>Of course, when the collective timeline shifts in significant ways, such as what took place on April 15, the after effects are not always a matter of rainbows and butterflies. The integration period can sometimes feel challenging, because the mind is being asked to literally stretch out of its previous patterns.</span></p>
<p><span>So if the past few weeks have been challenging for you, know that you are simply being expanded.</span></p>
<p><span>We also have five planets in retrograde right now, giving us the opportunity to completely shed the illusions and triggers that no longer serve our highest good.</span></p>
<p><span><strong><span>I will share a quick overview of what planets are currently in retrograde, and what that means for us:</span></strong></span></p>
<p><span><span><strong>Jupiter</strong></span> <span>– Jupiter is in retrograde until May 9. Since Jupiter is all about wealth, and being in our power, this retrograde may be bringing up opportunities for us to look at and heal any patterns of lack and of giving our power away that we may still be engaged in.</span></span></p>
<p><span><span><strong>Mercury</strong></span> <span>– Mercury is in retrograde until May 22. Since Mercury is all about communication, this retrograde may be bringing up opportunities for us to look at and heal any patterns of not communicating enough, or of communicating in ways that are not aligned with the most authentic, honest part of ourselves.</span></span></p>
<p><span>The key to moving through Mercury in retrograde is to speak the truth with kindness and compassion. If it is not expressed in this way, then the way we deliver or speak is probably something that we would want to look at and heal.</span></p>
<p><span><span><strong>Mars</strong></span> <span>– Mars is in retrograde until June 29. Mars is often associated with turbulence and combat, yet a more expanded perspective would be to see it as a type of fiery passion.</span></span></p>
<p><span>This means that during a retrograde, triggers that have been beneath the surface of our close relationships could come to light right now, so that they can be healed and resolved once and for all. The key to moving through Mars retrograde is to completely let go of pride, and to be open and vulnerable with those closest to us.</span></p>
<p><span><span><strong>Saturn</strong></span> – <span>Saturn is in retrograde until August 13. Saturn is often associated with karma. This means that during a retrograde, we are receiving almost a double dose of karmic intensity.</span></span></p>
<p><span>This doesn't necessarily have to be a challenging experience, if we allow ourselves to put out into the world the kind of energy we would like to receive back. The effects will be pretty immediate, in terms of how we experience the world around us, because our world is simply a reflection of how we choose to see and treat ourselves.</span></p>
<p><span><span><strong>Pluto</strong></span> <span>– Pluto is in retrograde until September 26. Pluto is often associated with transformation. This means that during a retrograde, we have the opportunity to recreate ourselves and make a new start. Big breakthroughs will be the theme, especially on a personal level.</span></span></p>
<p><span>We can experience these breakthroughs by remaining flexible, engaged, and focused on the inner guidance that leads us to take inspired action. This is the time to fully invest our energy in healing ourselves, and to introduce innovative concepts into our lives, so that greater fulfillment and expansion can occur.</span></p>
<p><span>Phew, that's a lot of retrogrades! However, once Jupiter moves out of retrograde on May 9, it will lighten the energies significantly, especially in conjunction with the effects of the other four planetary retrogrades.</span></p>
<p><span>Doors that felt closed will open up, and greater ease and abundance will show up for those who have been doing the inner work, helping them to let go of the need to identify with a lack mentality.</span></p>
<p><span>Overall, so much expansion is happening right now, for all of us. Drink lots of water, take good care of yourself, and know that you are loved beyond measure.</span></p>
<p><span>Till next time,</span></p>
<p><span>Peace and progress,</span></p>

<p>EarthSky News with Deborah Byrd for February 11, 2016. To say that this morning’s announcement of the detection of gravitational waves was <em>momentous</em> is an understatement. At the announcement in Washington D.C. this morning, scientists struggled to find powerful-enough words to convey their excitement. The gist of it was:</p>
<blockquote><p>When we observed the universe only with optical light, we thought all was serene. When we began observing with radio waves, we learned that there are events in our universe that are violently explosive beyond imagining. Being able to detect gravitational waves will let us observe the universe in a new way again … and we can’t predict what marvels might unfold.</p>

<p><span>By <a href="http://theconversation.com/profiles/david-hinde-124884">David Hinde</a>, <em><a href="http://theconversation.com/institutions/australian-national-university">Australian National University</a></em></span></p>
<p>In an event likely never to be repeated, four new superheavy elements were last week<em>simultaneously</em> added to the periodic table. To add four in one go is quite an achievement but the race to find more is ongoing.</p>
<p>Back in 2012, the International Unions of Pure and Applied Chemistry (<a href="http://www.iupac.org/">IUPAC</a>) and Pure and Applied Physics (<a href="http://iupap.org/">IUPAP</a>) tasked five independent scientists to assess claims made for the discovery of elements 113, 115, 117 and 118. The measurements had been made at Nuclear Physics Accelerator laboratories in Russia (Dubna) and Japan (RIKEN) between 2004 and 2012.</p>
<p>Late last year, on December 30, 2015, IUPAC <a href="http://www.iupac.org/news/news-detail/article/discovery-and-assignment-of-elements-with-atomic-numbers-113-115-117-and-118.html">announced</a> that claims for the discovery of <em>all four</em> new elements had been accepted.</p>
<p>This completes the seventh row of the periodic table, and means that all elements between hydrogen (having only one proton in its nucleus) and element 118 (having 118 protons) are now officially discovered.</p>
<p>After the excitement of the discovery, the scientists now have the naming rights. The Japanese team will suggest the name for element 113. The joint Russian/US teams will make suggestions for elements 115, 117 and 118. These names will be assessed by IUPAC, and once approved, will become the new names that scientists and students will have to remember.</p>
<p>Until their discovery and naming, all superheavy elements (up to 999!) have been assigned temporary names by the IUPAC. Element 113 is known as ununtrium (Uut), 115 is ununpentium (Uup), 117 is ununseptium (Uus) and 118 ununoctium (Uuo). These names are not actually used by physicists, who instead refer to them as “element 118”, for example.</p>
<p><strong>The superheavy elements</strong></p>
<p>Elements heavier than Rutherfordium (element 104) are referred to as superheavy. They are not found in nature, because they undergo radioactive decay to lighter elements.</p>
<p>Those superheavy nuclei that have been created artificially have decay lifetimes between nanoseconds and minutes. But longer-lived (more neutron-rich) superheavy nuclei are expected to be situated at the centre of the so-called “<a href="http://www.superheavies.de/english/research_program/highlights_element_117.htm#The%20island%20of%20stability">island of stability</a>”, a place where neutron-rich nuclei with extremely long half-lives should exist.</p>
<p>Currently, the isotopes of new elements that have been discovered are on the “shore” of this island, since we cannot yet reach the centre.</p>
<p><strong><br/>How were these new elements created on Earth?</strong></p>
<p>Atoms of superheavy elements are made by nuclear fusion. Imagine touching two droplets of water – they will “snap together” because of surface tension to form a combined larger droplet.</p>
<p>The problem in the fusion of heavy nuclei is the large numbers of protons in both nuclei. This creates an intense repulsive electric field. A heavy-ion accelerator must be used to overcome this repulsion, by colliding the two nuclei and allowing the nuclear surfaces to touch.</p>
<p>This is not sufficient, as the two touching spheroidal nuclei must change their shape to form a compact single droplet of nuclear matter – the superheavy nucleus.</p>
<p>It turns out that this only happens in a few “lucky” collisions, as few as one in a million.</p>
<p><iframe width="600" height="338" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/YovAFlzFtzg?wmode=opaque" frameborder="0"></iframe>
</p>
<p>There is yet another hurdle; the superheavy nucleus is very likely to decay almost immediately by fission. Again, as few as one in a million survives to become a superheavy atom, identified by its unique radioactive decay.</p>
<p>The process of superheavy element creation and identification thus requires large-scale accelerator facilities, sophisticated magnetic separators, efficient detectors and <em>time</em>.</p>
<p>Finding the three atoms of element 113 in Japan took 10 years, and that was <em>after</em> the experimental equipment had been developed.</p>
<p>The payback from the discovery of these new elements comes in improving models of the atomic nucleus (with applications in nuclear medicine and in element formation in the universe) and testing our understanding of atomic relativistic effects (of increasing importance in the chemical properties of the heavy elements). It also helps in improving our understanding of complex and irreversible interactions of quantum systems in general.</p>
<p><strong>The race to make more elements</strong></p>
<p>The race is now on to produce elements 119 and 120. The projectile nucleus Calcium-48 (Ca-48) – successfully used to form the newly accepted elements – has too few protons, and no target nuclei with more protons are currently available. The question is, which heavier projectile nucleus is the best to use.</p>
<p>To investigate this, the leader and team members of the German superheavy element research group, based in Darmstadt and Mainz, recently travelled to the Australian National University.</p>
<p>They made use of unique ANU <a href="http://physics.anu.edu.au/nuclear/hiaf.php">experimental capabilities</a>, supported by the Australian Government’s <a href="https://www.education.gov.au/national-collaborative-research-infrastructure-strategy-ncris">NCRIS program</a>, to measure fission characteristics for several nuclear reactions forming element 120. The results will guide future experiments in <a href="http://www-win.gsi.de/tasca/Default.htm">Germany</a> to form the new superheavy elements.</p>
<p>It seems certain that by using similar nuclear fusion reactions, proceeding beyond element 118 will be more difficult than reaching it. But that was the feeling after the discovery of element 112, first observed in 1996. And yet a new approach using Ca-48 projectiles allowed another six elements to be discovered.</p>
<p>Nuclear physicists are already exploring different types of nuclear reaction to produce superheavies, and some promising results have already been achieved. Nevertheless, it would need a huge breakthrough to see four new nuclei added to the periodic table at once, as we have just seen.</p>

<div class="entry"><p>Tonight, as you contemplate the stars, think about the way our local star, the sun, moves through our Milky Way galaxy. A friend from Australia wrote:</p>
<blockquote><p>I seek to find out what speed our sun is traveling at and also how many years it takes to circumnavigate the galaxy.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Our Milky Way galaxy is a collection of several hundred billion stars. It has an estimated diameter of 100,000 light-years. Our sun does indeed circumnavigate the Milky Way galaxy. In space, everything moves. There are <a href="http://hypertextbook.com/facts/2001/AngelaChan.shtml" target="_blank">various estimates for the speed the sun travels through the galaxy</a>, but its speed is about 140 miles per second.</p>
<p>Likewise, there are many <a href="http://hypertextbook.com/facts/2002/StacyLeong.shtml">estimates for the length of time it takes the sun to complete one circuit of the galaxy</a>, but a typical estimate is about 230 million years.</p>
<p>That period of time – the length of the sun’s orbit around the Milky Way’s center – is known as a<em>cosmic year</em>.</p>
<p>It so happens that astronomers know which star the sun is moving toward in its journey around the galaxy. Our sun and family of planets travel more or less toward the star Vega – and away from the star Sirius. Unsurprisingly, Vega and Sirius lie in opposite directions in Earth’s sky.</p>
<p>At this time of year from mid-northern latitudes, Vega star appears over the northwest horizon at dusk and early evening. Vega sets around mid-evening. It also appears low in the northeast sky in the predawn and dawn hours. It’s one of the loveliest stars you’ll ever see, <a href="http://earthsky.org/tonightpost/brightest-stars/vega-brilliant-blue-white-is-third-brightest-star" target="_blank">Vega</a> in the constellation Lyra the Harp.</p>

From mid-northern latitudes, as darkness falls on January evenings, the Summer Triangle sits close to the west-northwestern horizon.</p>
</div>
<p>Vega resides almost exactly opposite of <a href="http://earthsky.org/brightest-stars/sirius-the-brightest-star" target="_blank">Sirius</a>, the brightest star in the nighttime sky. If you have an unobstructed horizon, you may see Sirius low in the southeast, as Vega sits low in the northwest.</p>
<p>At mid-northern latitudes, you’ll possibly see both stars around 7 to 8 p.m. local time. Sirius swings low in the southwest sky by around 3 to 4 a.m., at which time Vega reappears in the northeast sky (at mid-northern latitudes). <a href="http://aa.usno.navy.mil/data/docs/mrst.php" target="_blank">Click here</a> to find out when these two stars rise/set in your sky.</p>

From mid-latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere, you might see Sirius low in the southeast, as Vega sits low in the northwest.</p>
</div>
<p>Our sun’s direction of motion (and thus our Earth’s corresponding motion) toward Vega has a special name. It’s called the <em>apex of the sun’s way</em>. Vega – the solar apex star – can be found in the eastern sky during the dawn and predawn hours throughout the winter season.</p>
<p>Bottom line: Our sun moves toward the star Vega as it revolves around the center of the Milky Way galaxy. One circuit takes about 230 million years, or one “cosmic year.”</p>

<p>We’ve all seen crepuscular rays, or sunrays, converging on the sun. They appear as columns of sunlight, streaming up from the horizon or down through gaps in clouds. Next time you see them … turn around. Look opposite the direction of the sun. You might catch a glimpse of elusive anticrepuscular rays. These rays appear to converge towards the antisolar point – that is, the point on the sky opposite the sun. If you want to see them, remember these 3 tips:</p>
<p><em>1. Look in the direction opposite the sun</em>, next time you see crepuscular rays extending from the horizon.</p>
<p><em>2. Look carefully.</em> Remember that anticrepuscular rays are fainter and more elusive than crepuscular rays.</p>
<p><em>3. Watch around sunrise or sunset</em> for anticrepuscular rays. That’s when they are are most frequently visible.</p>

<p>Les Cowley of the great website Atmospheric Optics says:</p>
<blockquote><p>Like crepuscular rays they are parallel shafts of sunlight from holes in the clouds and their apparently odd directions are a perspective effect. Think of a long straight road, it converges towards the horizon but turn around and it also converges to the opposite horizon. Crepuscular and anticrepuscular rays behave in the same way.</p>
<p>Anticrepuscular rays are not rare but they must be sought carefully. When ordinary crepuscular rays are visible, turn around and search for their opposite numbers.</p>

<p>Bottom line: If you want to see anticrepuscular rays – columns of sunlight, often with dark shadowed areas in between the columns – look carefully opposite the direction of the sun. They are most often seen at sunrise or sunset.</p>
