A Time-Free Transparent World
We are right in the middle of
astronomical and cultural cycles that are profoundly altering
the Earth, and most of us don't know where we are going.
The most critical cycles during this
period are,
-
the Dawning of the Age of
Aquarius
-
the ending of two ancient
Mayan Calendars in 2011 and 2012
-
seven squares between Uranus
and Pluto that were exact during 2012-2015, and are
still in the square within 10 degrees until 2020
These cycles have been fomenting
mind-boggling and confusing global changes with the
dysfunctional structures of the patriarchy crashing and burning
all over the world.
In the midst of this time-sensitive
revolution, I've been working with two practices that explore
time going back a hundred thousand years that I will describe
during this lecture.
Many of you, especially those who are younger than me, have been
tuning into the Paleolithic and Neolithic worlds through farming
and food - such as so many people adopting
Paleolithic diets - because you
sense archaic wisdom can help you to be in harmony with our
planet.
I now believe many of us are
transiting rapidly into a time-free transparent world.
We've contemplated deep human time,
and by doing so we're recovering repressed ancient skills - the
archaic hunter-gathering mind and magical mind of the
Paleolithic world, and the mythic mind of the Neolithic.
Before you get up to go chotsky-shopping
at this Expo, this is the most difficult concept I will offer
today! If you stay around, you will at least partially
understand your own part in this awakening of the planetary
mind, and also we will experience a guided journey with
the Pleiadians into Earth's
deepest structures.
To keep it simple for now, first I
will tell you the story of my quest, which I will relate to the
cycles and thoughts of other researchers.
Then we will go into the awakening
of the time-free transparent world, a beautiful concept from
The Ever-Present Origin by the German philosopher Jean
Gebser.
Some of you may have already read
his important book.
I have been discussing these main cycles of change for many
years. During this time I also searched for ways to describe the
radical processes we are experiencing today. I'm sure no one in
this room has escaped the crazy acceleration of time and the
out-of-control changes in the world.
At age 73, after years of deep
contemplation, I feel like I understand where we are going
- an awareness that avoids pessimism and gives me peace of mind.
I begin with explaining how I
discovered this awareness in my own research and writings, since
at least some of you have read my books or come to a workshop,
maybe even travelled with Gerry and me in Egypt, Greece,
England, or Mexico.
I came to a huge turning point at
the end of 2011 when I had completed my part in the intellectual
exploration of evolution in time.
-
my description of nine
dimensions of consciousness from the Pleiadians was
finished
-
my research on
the Mayan Calendar had
synchronized
-
Chiron was being used by
many astrologers to rule Virgo and the Sixth House as I
proposed back in 1987
-
most people knew that a
great cataclysm had caused a human regression around
12,000 years ago, my 2001 hypothesis in
Catastrophobia - The Truth Behind Earth Changes,
which was updated in a new edition in 2007 -
Awakening the Planetary Mind
In 2011, I completed my research,
so, where was I to turn in my creative life?
As you will see, I have turned to
writing fiction to further express these primary ideas about the
evolution of human consciousness. I will describe this creative
turn after I tell you my story.
When I was a young girl, my Cherokee/Celtic grandfather
repeatedly told me the story of our traumatic cultural
regression that was caused by a series of cosmic cataclysms
around 12,000 years ago.
We were reduced to a
multi-traumatized species seeking survival.
He told me how Earth's indigenous
people struggled to recover their ancient heritage over
thousands of years. He told we would recreate this
archaic/magical/mythical world during my lifetime, and now we
are witnessing its emergence.
I had a delightful time in my
grandfather's study as he moved his fingers all over a large
spinning globe, telling me about the movement of people and the
development of clan culture in tune with the plants, animals,
and rocks.
He was a Cherokee record keeper
taught by his mother, and then I received his legacy. But, when
I was six years old, I had to go to school where I was abused by
Western rationalism.
While I went through my education
that culminated in a master's degree in theology in 1983, I had
to parrot the rational paradigm back to my teachers just to
graduate. I also carried on a deep and continual search for the
remnants of my Cherokee wisdom in everything I studied.
I never lost my
archaic/magical/mythic consciousness because of my grandfather
and my Celtic grandmother. I couldn't exist without it today,
and I believe this is what many of you may be seeking.
I experienced a difficult mid-life crisis in my early forties.
My personality began to fragment because what I needed to know
did not fit with the acceptable paradigms in human culture. I
struggled to keep my sanity, which was not a pleasant experience
for a wife and mother-of-four. I was tortured by conflicting
voices in my mind, which made me realize I needed depth therapy.
Psychoanalysis was too
time-consuming and expensive for me, so I chose past-life
regression under hypnosis (PLR)
to discover what the inner voices wanted, and it worked!
My graduate thesis was a comparison
of PLR and Jungian analysis based on 100 two-hour sessions under
hypnosis, the material for writing the Mind Chronicles
Trilogy.
As you can imagine, writing this
trilogy from 1985 through 1992 triggered much more deep
exploration. These sessions were a gold mine because I had
time-travelled back through more than 100,000 years of human
consciousness.
Inadvertently, I fully activated my
archaic/magical/mythical time records, which has been the basis
of all my work.
The Mind Chronicles Trilogy came out
in three successive books starting in 1986 - Eye of the Centaur,
Heart of the Christos, and Signet of Atlantis - and then it was
published as one condensed book,
The Mind Chronicles, in 2007.
Craving to fuse with Earth's intelligence, I went into
anthropology back in 1993 at the Cuyamungue Institute near Santa
Fe, NM to train with the woman who discovered ecstatic trance
postures in 1977, Dr. Felicitas Goodman.
Ecstatic trance was a magical
practice that connected people globally to the Great Mother
during the Paleolithic and Neolithic world. It was their entry
into Nature, and it still is now.
Goodman discovered that holding a
specific body posture for fifteen minutes while in trance,
facilitated by rattling or drumming, allows anyone to take
journeys into the lower, middle, and upper worlds for healing
and divination.
This experience opens our full
creative mentality and attunes us to mother Earth.
I still use this practice and teach
it when I can, which will be posted on my website,
handclow2012.com. That is my story in a nutshell, and now I want
to relate this creative awakening to the fulfillment of the
Western rational mind, the revolution that is transforming the
world we live in.
I'm using Jean Gebser's
terminology, because he brilliantly described these fundamental
layers of human mental evolution way back in the 1940s when I
was born.
Considering the Western rational mind, its development begins
around 2500 years ago during the Golden age of Greece and
culminated during the Renaissance 500 years ago. The Western
rational mind is merely the most recent advance in human
consciousness.
Before rationalism, the mythical
mind first appears around 10,000 years ago and superseded the
magical mind around 5,000 years ago.
Back much farther in time, the
archaic hunter-gathering mind is the first emergence of human
consciousness around 160,000 years ago, which blossomed fully
100,000 years ago when humans developed art as we can see in the
Paleolithic cave paintings.
What is unique about
hunter-gatherers is they were totally fused with Earth's
vibratory fields.
They knew everything that was going
on in their habitat and even had global intelligence,
which is brilliantly described in the magnificent film,
Avatar.
Things changed profoundly around 12,000 years ago when a series
of cataclysms occurred that initiated our separation from
Nature. In a state of shock and fear, we detected our "self" or
"ego,"
and saw ourselves as outside Nature.
To cope with this changing status,
humans invented very potent magical skills to cope with the
vicissitudes of life, for example,
-
using spells
-
making powerful wishes
-
healing
-
travelling out of body
-
divination
Around 5,000 years ago, humans
created myths and stories to explain the past and the critical
events in their lives.
They wanted to know,
Where did I come from, where am
I going?
The Great Myth of Earth often opened
with the story of the near destruction of Earth known as the
Fall of Atlantis or the
expulsion from the Garden of Eden.
We were swept away in a grand
mythical story of life that fascinated us all the way up to the
Age of Enlightenment, which was the takeover by the rational
mind in the eighteenth century. Notice that each one of these
stages of our consciousness evolution further estranged us from
Nature, and then rationalism separated us almost completely.
Meanwhile during the Industrial Age
and the Age of Enlightenment, we did create physical comfort and
a modicum of political intelligence.
However, now most of us realize
rationalism is drying us up and destroying Earth, so the next
stage - time-free transparency - is urgently emerging. This is
the crisis of our times, the reemergence of ever-present origin.
In other words, the seeds of what is
to come next are always there within us and in Nature, and the
cycles I've described indicate this next stage is emerging now.
It actually is.
I've told my story of traveling into the deep past to recover
ancient mentalities because I think it reflects the attainment
of time-free transparency.
Also I've always sought safe and
useful ways to recover and use ancient wisdom. You may wonder
about the value of this quest in a world that is deeply troubled
by violence and atavistic behavior, for example,
ISIS nesting like hornets in the Middle
East.
In light of the horrible emergence
of this cruel group, I found myself questioning the validity of
today's lecture, since ISIS exhibits some archaic, magical, and
mythic traits that are covered over by misogyny - fear of woman
- and stifling rationalism.
So, I ask the hard question:
Is the awakening of time-free
transparency in our times actually creating things like ISIS
and/or rampant mental illness?
My answer is the American president
George W. Bush created ISIS
when he
invaded Iraq in 2003 and threw
Saddam Hussein's Republican Guard out on the streets or into
jail to be tortured.
Bush's insane rationalistic attack
is what created ISIS, not the rising need for human freedom.
Regarding rampant mental illness and
drugging, this is caused by the suppression of the more creative
aspects of our minds by rationalism, aspects of our mentality
that are reemerging now.
In other words, time-free
transparency is arising within us to integrate all the
aspects of our selves so that we can return to being at one with
our planet.
The archaic mind knows its sacred
territory and protects it, the magic mind can heal and divine,
the mythic mind comprehends the flow of time as our collective
story, and rational intelligence can create technologies in
harmony with Earth.
So, with these rich ideas in mind, what do the cycles mean to
us?
The Age of Aquarius has been flowing
in for more than a hundred years with the discovery of quantum
physics and IT, and actually what troubles us now is the ending
of the remnants of previous ages.
The more we understand how the
changes of the ages work, the more we will easily let go of old
patterns.
The Age of Pisces has been a
dualistic two-thousand-year period that developed organized
religion. Before the Age of Pisces, during the Age of Aries
around 2400 BC to 160 BC, humans adopted organized warfare for
power and control.
Both of these ages adored war and
were male dominant.
Unfortunately the war aspects of the
Age of Aries were adopted by organized religions two thousand
years ago, and during the Age of Pisces, people have been
mind-controlled to kill other people
in the name of God.
Now that the Aquarian ideals are
flowing in, many people are imagining the end of homo
agressus, and next we will become homo pacem, "man of
peace", which I proposed in 2007 in
The Mayan Code: Time Acceleration and
Awakening the World Mind.
In other words, the newest level of
our origins is coming forth.
The longest Mayan Calendar that explores 16.4 billion years of
human evolution, as proposed by the biologist Carl Johan
Calleman, completed itself in 2011.
Then nine waves of evolution began
flowing simultaneously, which is explored in Calleman's upcoming
book,
The Nine Waves of Creation.
I can see that the simultaneous flow
of all nine waves is creating time-free-transparency. It is very
subtle, it is happening, yet what is it exactly?
'Time-free transparency' is,
a spherical form of
consciousness that is holistic and embraces our ancient past
and our future potential by living in the present.
The seven squares between Uranus and
Pluto have pushed us to a new level of chaos that is imploding
the male-dominant world of the last 5,000 years and forcing us
to integrate all the dimensions of time in our consciousness.
We are plagued by horrific violence,
such as in Brussels a month ago. But if you can see these events
as dying conflicts from the aggressive Age of Aries that
transformed into wars for God during the Age of Pisces,
then clarity is available.
Astrology is the best way to read
archetypal transformations - "As Above, so Below" - so let's
have a last look at the Uranus/Pluto squares.
Since Uranus rules revolution and
creates breakdowns, and Pluto rules the deepest parts of our
psyches to expose power abuse, so these squares are creating
unrelenting pressure to transform. Uranus and Pluto came
together in the sky during the 1960s when people fought for
peace, freedom, love, ecology and equality, and now the need is
critical.
During these seven squares, idealism
was reinvigorated as reflected in Bernie Sander's
campaign. These seven squares also triggered deep fear and anger
because rationalism no longer works, as reflected in Donald
Trump's campaign.
With these rich ideas in mind, now it is time to tell you about
my debut novel,
Revelations of the Ruby Crystal.
Once my rational thought congealed in 2011, my left-brain
research was complete. Yet, I cannot imagine not creating all
the time.
So I thought about unleashing my
imagination by writing a novel.
One day I was stewing on that idea
in my writing room, and my inner voice told me to get out a
tablet and pen to write things down. In a few hours, I had the
names, professions, psychological profiles, loves and hates, of
all the characters in Ruby Crystal...!
I could even see them and feel them,
so I talked to Gerry about it, and he said,
"You must write a novel with
these characters! They are fascinating and compelling; I
want to know them!"
Gerry had never encouraged me like
this before, so I decided to give it a try.
I parked myself in my writing room
with my list of characters, and I just let it flow. I never
plotted it, and now that I'm writing the sequel, it is the same,
or shall I say the sequel is writing itself.
But, how does this connect to all
the ideas I've been offering today?
These ideas are highly complex to say the least. If it is true
we are in the middle of a huge transformation of our species,
then a trilogy that explores this transition could be very
valuable, even critically important.
What I discovered in writing Ruby
Crystal is that the sharing of these complex thoughts
between highly intelligent characters, such as,
-
Claudia Tagliatti a follower
of Calleman
-
Simon Appel, a New York
Times reporter in Rome writing about priestly sexual
abuse
-
Sarah Adamson, an early
Christian scholar wanting to know why she can't find
Christ in the Catholic Church
-
Simon's father, David Appel,
a Jewish magus,
...amps up the power of their
thought as they share what they are thinking among themselves.
In their contrapuntal relating, a
sphere forms that contains them.
Jean Gebser says the
time-free transparent stage is spherical, and this caught my
eye because the trilogy is forcing me to write spherically to
reveal all the facets of deep ideas that are emerging within us.
Because of this spherical holistic
quality, readers have been telling me that reading my novel is
like getting a Reiki session.
My past readers, who have resisted
my shift into fiction, say that this novel is a quantum leap
beyond what I've ever done. My last comment is that I've always
wanted to entertain my audience, and non-fiction frustrated me
because it is so much work for the reader.
Well, ninety percent of readers
report that Revelations of the Ruby Crystal is a
page-turner, that its storytelling is compelling and fun. So,
please consider reading it just for fun!
Carl Calleman and I believe that human cultures need to
realize that our planet has a midline at 12 E longitude that
creates what Calleman calls "The Winds of History."
He and I both think we will be
mind-controlled and victimized until we realize how this
terrestrial structure influences us.
Next, I am going to read a few
passages from Ruby Crystal where a few of the characters
discuss this midline which goes through Gabon, Tunisia, Rome,
Germany, and up through Scandinavia.
Right now, the effects of this
energy line can be observed in the movement of refugees out of
Africa and the Middle East, up through Rome and Germany with
many desiring to make it up to Sweden.
After reading these passages giving
you ideas about this midline, I will take you on a guided
journey into the planetary midline to awaken our understanding
about it.
Thank you for your participation in
this process.
