New World Rising

Although a Card Reader by trade, much of my “information” comes to me in darker hours, in the form of dreams. Often these dreams prove themselves with accuracy defying the odds. As I say in my book in regard to prophecy and the accuracy or inaccuracy of any given prediction, usually it is our interpretation of what is given where errors enter in.

A couple of days ago (late May, 2011), early in the morning while lolling in peaceful slumber, I found myself in a group of people, sharing prophetic information we had each received. I was listening intently, comparing mentally what I was hearing with predictions I had received personally. What I did not realize at the time was the prophecies shared by the group would quickly become my own.

There was talk abouut the Earth, and the new time we are entering as part of it. It was told that we will soon experience what is called World 12. Not much about this world was relayed, however; it was conveyed that the Earth and her inhabitants had previously experienced many other “Worlds” (World 4, World 7, World 8, were specifically mentioned) and that we had actually experienced those worlds a number of times. “World 12″ is different  in the sense that we on Earth have never before experienced it.

It was also communicated that the Earth would be coming into Her full maturity in this future, implying that as beautiful and copious as our Earth is and has been, there would be even greater marvels to behold from Her.

At this point I had to hold back my tongue, as I myself had received a very similar prophecy (about full maturity) a few months back.* I wanted to chime in with the fact that I, too, had received this same information, but decided it was more valuable to simply continue listening rather than risk side tracking the conversation.

Then I found myself with this same group standing on the shore off the state of Florida. We were allowed to witness a new land mass arising out of the water. It was a demonstration for the group of what will be happening as part of “World 12.” I asked if our group could be allowed to view what the completed arising of this land mass would look like. Following this request, we were escorted out to sea on a beautiful ship, captained by a being I experienced as Poseidon. He was a large presence with white hair, a long beard, and a marvelous sea-faring helmut atop his head.

We sat in silence, waiting for a vision in answer to the request. Ocean before us, finally I made out the silhouette of many, many other ships traveling along side us. It seemed we were entering a harbor!  I could see at the same time gigantic water mammals – the massive outline of a dark whale, and then more. There were large dolphin type creatures leaping into the air and filling the spaces of the water. It seemed no two were alike. So many variations I had never seen before. It was joyous! Then the misty outline of rolling hills atop the water. It was breath taking, large and sweeping across the horizon.

As we approached the shore, there was so much bustling activity! People everywhere, running and cajoling in a very lively manner. Clothing was very loose, draped in a way that reminds me now of what I have seen the Romans depicted in.

The dwelling spaces were colorful and connected together in tight rows, rooftops pointed skyward, and fronted by water canals, presumably for travel between locations.

It was beautiful!!!! So much life. Unexpectedly, I began uncontrollably sobbing, my whole body convulsing with the outpouring of emotion.

I awoke and lingered in the space of beauty. I recalled the details in my mind for recall later, and realized I had been given the name of this marvelous place arisen from the ocean depths. It was Panderia.

Panderia…

High Frequency “Medicine”

 

Being a student of the Shamanic traditions, I have now begun to view what I come into contact with as “medicine.” According to ancient Shamanic wisdom, for example, if you get bit by a spider you now have spider “medicine,” and it becomes a power and a gift that you incorporate into your being.
It has recently become a part of my awareness that all things I come into contact with have a “medicine” that I can incorporate into my being and gain energy from. Each moment a new offering, a new opportunity from Spirit. This being said, it also now becomes imperative that I be very good to myself and minister to myself as best I can, not indulging in influences that I do not wish to incorporate into my being. For example, I find it imperative to strictly moderate violent media (and mainstream “news” in general,) junk food, and time with people who I do not feel happy being with. On the contrary, there are influences I notice nurture me and contribute to a greater feeling of well being, and some of these I will share here.

In terms of food, I notice staying away from wheat and also milk makes me feel much better in so many ways. Cheese, yogurt, and grains other than wheat are fine for me. Mind you, these preferences have not come about because of any particular mental conviction but rather experiential conclusions. I also am finding it invaluable to stay open to changes in what feels nourishing and nurturing and allow myself to rewrite my rules at any time.

One recent discovery is dark berries crushed up in thick coconut milk with some high quality dark chocolate melted in. I eat it like a thick mash. I did not get the recipe from anywhere but followed my instincts and am finding it a necessary staple for me at this time. Today I had deja-vu while eating it and remembered eating it in a dream right after the Japan nuclear crises. In the dream I was looking for a food to protect me from radiation. I do not know if this food serves this purpose, but it was an interesting flash back.

My body also wants almonds now everyday and greens are also a daily “medicine.” When I am eating greens I feel so particularly satisfied.

Sunlight is huge for me. I feel an instant lift in frequency. I like to just sit in my yard in the sun (sworn off sunglasses*) and watch my dogs. Low key feels so much better to me now than anything else. Activities such as shopping or errands are ideally kept to absolute minimums. An hour or two now and then is plenty of crowd and traffic “medicine” for me!

If I am in real need of a recharge I will put my bare hands on a tree for a few minutes or in the dirt in gardening season. For a real treat, I love going bare foot. My animals are a necessary daily touchstone for me also. Meditation is, of course, maybe the most foundational practice of all and twice daily feels the best.

Surrounding myself with beauty, good people, nature, vibrant food, animals, peaceful surroundings, spiritual perspectives and spiritual practice are all medicines my soul soaks in and I feel starved and “out of sorts” without.

Maybe you have had experiences that correspond to mine. Maybe you know what it feels like to be “out of sorts” from a vibrational stand point. I have learned for myself I have to take care of me before I can be of use to anyone else on the level that I have personally been called to serve. This is because I am here to heal. This is square one. Now multiply exponentially.

*Spirit showed me in a vision how sunglasses starve the pineal gland (the third eye) of it’s “food,” which is the sunlight.

Retreat with Little Grandmother, Feb. 2011 (Day 1)

Little Grandmother, Santa Fe 2011

Day 1:  Today. A day of very big energy. Lots of good messages. I believe it is important to distill for the sake of impact, and also to write now while the day is fresh in my experience. Maybe the biggest message I want to share is that of a set meditation time for the planet. Please join in the worldwide meditation everyday for a few minutes at 12 noon Mountain Standard Time.

Please, I know there are lots of group meditation notices and it is so easy to just blow them off. I speak from personal experience! We are at THE critical transition point for the planet !  As Little Grandmother says, WE ARE MUCH MORE POWERFUL THAN WE GIVE OURSELVES CREDIT! This kind of group focus has the power to tip the balance of energy on the planet. It can change everything.

An interesting thing I found out about Keisha today (Little Grandmother) is that she is as big a fan of Tom Kenyon’s “Pineal Gland Meditation,” as am I. We all meditated to this soundtrack (at noon, of course!), as we were guided to focus on gratitude for the Earth and all She provides for us and then on a deep sense of rootedness and connection with the Earth.

Little Grandmother repeated more than once that meditating to this soundtrack was the most powerful meditation she has found. I believe that is saying something. Interestingly for me, this has been one of my all time favorites for meditating for a while now, along with some of Tom’s other amazing music, much of which he gives as free downloads on his website! Awesome!  (www.tomkenyon.com) The “pineal gland soundtrack is perfect for the noon meditation, as it is about 6 min.s long, just enough for a “quickie.” I have it downloaded on my iphone so it is always with me. Caution: It can make you very spaced out!!!

Other messages I would like to pass along: Time to switch to living from the HEART. LOVE IS REALLY THE ANSWER. Love makes us more intelligent. You will love yourself to enlightenment. This was maybe the most prominent message throughout the day.

Second: Words are extraordinarily powerful. We are the only creatures on this planet who have been given words. It is a power. Use them wisely. Also, you have the choice whether to take the words of other people into your being or not. If the words are not for your highest good, don’t take them in.

Next: Crystals hold information. Put your intention of love and healing into the crystals you have in your house and give them back to Mother Earth in water. She said we have taken enough out of the Earth, time to give back. Obviously keep a couple crystals if you like for your own purposes at home, but we don’t need so many. She said they can do the most good in the water outside. Here’s the sequence:  You put the intention of love in the crystal (by focusing on this feeling while holding the crystal,) the crystal holds the information. You put the crystal in natural water (lake, stream, well, etc..) and then the love gets communicated to and carried by the water. The water evaporates and gives the blessing to the air. It mixes with all the other water in the clouds and then rains down that same communication to the soil, plants, animals, people, EVERYTHING!  Then, (amazing magic,) it evaporates again and does it all again! She said it is the best way to use a crystal and I can see why. This is homeopathic quantum crystal love medicine!!! Dig it!

Also, regarding crystals, she said the crystals in the planet are now being activated and it is time to wear a clear quartz crystal around your neck, at the level of your heart. She said this connects us to the heart of Mother Earth. Also, put love and healing into the crystals and give them to your children to wear. Ask the child to hold the crystal and have a little “chit chat” with the child about what makes them happy and what they love. The crystal will then hold this vibration as well.

Well, there was lots more, but I felt these were some of the main points. Other highlights included the importance of connecting with nature, how each person chose to come here at this time and each soul has a purpose and a gift, how Star People are real and to expect planetary wide disclosure within the next year, how the planet has measurably tripled in frequency over the last two years, and how never before in the history of the Universe has a planet accelerated in frequency so quickly in such a short period of time as we are experiencing now on planet Earth.

She also said to buy organic seeds NOW and also rain barrels and a way to filter water. On these last points, she did not exactly elaborate (yet) on why, but did say that chemtrails are real and are making our water toxic, thus the filters.

So on the eve of my 2nd day with Little Grandmother, I actually hugged a tree in my backyard. I have to say it was amazing!! Lately I am very much noticing my own increasing awareness of energy and was quite taken by the extraordinarily tender soul of the tree, very aware of my presence there next to it. This was a very moving experience for me, demonstrating what Little Grandmother said about how important it is to put bare hands or feet on the earth everyday (since it is 22℉ here today, I opted for the hands!) Just 10 min.s will fill your energy completely.

More tomorrow….

Love, Ana

2012 and Your Card Reading Practice

(This post is a reprint from my May 2010 archives. Worth repeating.)

When speaking about preparation for 2012 I get interesting responses from different people. For some, no preparation is required at all. It is just another trip to the movies. For others, it is about stock piling food and supplies for some kind of apocalyptic scenario. And yet what is at the heart of this looming date?

2012 was calculated by the Mayan and other ancient civilizations and prophets as a time of great shift: The end of an old world and the beginning of a new. Chaos is foretold as familiar societal and planetary structures crumble, giving way to new, higher frequencies.
Whether you believe the prophecies or not, we can at least concede these are strange times, indeed. Global events are accelerating and intensifying as we enter a period of climate change, gigantic solar storms, and societal destabilization. What the new form of things will be as we become acclimatized to this vibratory makeover has yet to be seen and creates a feeling of unrest as we anticipate the unknown. Never before has such a transition as this been seen on our dear planet.
So back to the question of preparation…. And why oh why am I talking about this on a blog dedicated to the infinitely more simple (seemingly!) topic of Card Reading????
As we transition into a time of what Mayan Shamans are referring to as “the Fifth Age,” the best and truly only preparation is one of frequency preparation. Once you give yourself the rub-down energetically, you will also be in tune with your own guidance, intuition, and natural, God-given GPS system. You will know what to do and when to do it.
What is your practice for energy alignment? Do you do it every day? How can card reading be incorporated into this?

Surprisingly enough, the Playing Cards were created in accordance with natural and powerful energetic codes. The same energetics that the Mayans understood and used to create their calendar and calculate the year 2012.
I plan to make some sort of comparison chart to map this all out, but here are a few of the basics: The Mayan Calendar wheel is based on 52 year cycles and it is on these cycles that the year 2012 was predicted. 52 is the total number of cards in the playing deck and has been for as far back as we can trace it (before Tarot, which was an alteration of the original deck.)
There were 13 months to the Mayan (logical when you remember there are 13 lunar cycles in one solar cycle) and also 13 number Gods or “13 bearers of numbers.” Accordingly, there are exactly 13 cards or numbers in each suit of the playing cards (Ace thru King.) 13 cards in each of 4 suits = 52, the same as 13 lunar cycles each of 4 weeks and 4 seasons each of 13 weeks = 52 weeks in the year. Now we begin to understand why the numbers 52, 13, and 4 were sacred.
To the Mayan, the world was conceived as a great square with four directions, four “bearers of the year,” or four Gods. The playing deck too, is a “great square,” divided evenly into four suits that also correspond to the four directions, the four seasons of the year, and the four elements of nature. The Mayan were Masters of observation and conceived the nature of time as manifold circles, all meshing together perfectly as intricate cogs in some sort of mind-blowing clock.
I am not saying the deck is Mayan. I am not saying it is the same as the Mayan Calendar. It is, however; like the Mayan calendar in that it is a work of art based upon the observation of the natural world and the rhythms within it. And it is this that we must return to.
In the pursuit of true spirituality and our own personal destiny, we must eventually shake the dust off of the knowledge of who we are. Try as we might, we will never be able to make ourselves into what we are not. The only thing awaiting us is The Return.
So this is how the study of your Playing Deck can become a part of your own sacred preparation for the accelerated frequencies making their way to planet Earth. It is a practice in alignment, a sacred study of natural frequency codes that the moon, sun, and seasons must dance to, and so must we. In this practice, we undertake nothing less than the reintegration and healing of our collectively scattered soul, a sacred meditation on crystalline structures put into card form. Now is the Time.
As I mentioned in my related video, hang out with your Playing Cards and look at them as if you’ve never seen them before – as if you knew they were a book of knowledge, and watch the secrets unfold :-)
P.S. Get the book! What are you waiting for? (The Playing Card Oracles)
