For the past few years, the Beings of Light in the Realms of Illumined Truth have been telling us that the 2008 Presidential elections in the United States of America would be the most important elections we have ever experienced. They said this was true because of the urgency of the hour, and because of the incredible things that will take place on Earth during the next few years. The Beings of Light revealed that there was a powerful Divine Plan unfolding in reference to these elections, and that the end result would reflect the will of the people and the birth of a New Day on Planet Earth.

These Messengers of God never interfere with Humanity’s free will, so they would not say who would be elected as President of the USA. They did, however, ask us to invoke our I AM Presence for guidance and to listen to our hearts. In an amazing outpouring of hope and trust, literally billions of people all over the world held the sacred space for the fulfillment of this Divine Plan and for the highest good for all concerned in these elections.

Now the decision has been made. Barack Obama is our new president-elect. His facet of this mission is monumental, and he is going to need the assistance of every one of us in order to victoriously accomplish the healing and the transformation that we are now in the midst of in this country and around the world.

The Truth is, fundamental change never begins at the top. It begins with people joining together in grass roots movements. But, with the support of people at the top, the changes will take place infinitely faster.

Throughout his campaign, Barack Obama stated that he will not be able to accomplish the goals the people want him to accomplish by himself. He said again and again that he will need the help of all of us in order to initiate the changes that will move this country forward in a positive direction. Together, we can truly make this a government of "We the people." What a novel concept.

The patterns of perfection for the New Earth have been securely anchored in the physical plane. We are now experiencing the rapid expansion of these patterns through every person, place, condition and thing. This process seems to be occurring at warp speed. The obsolete paradigms of greed, selfishness, corruption and the abuse of power are crumbling away. The people involved with these destructive patterns are fighting tooth and nail to hold on to their money and their power, but their efforts will be in vain. Anything that is not based in reverence for Life and the highest good for all concerned cannot and will not be sustained in the frequencies of the New Earth. It is just that simple.

The presidential elections in the USA have ushered in a New Day on Planet Earth. Regardless of who you voted for, it is now time for us all to come together. We have an unprecedented opportunity to make a positive difference that will add to the Light of the world. This is truly the initial impulse of Divine Government: a government OF the I AM Presence of Humanity, BY the I AM Presence of Humanity, FOR the I AM Presence of Humanity, a government dedicated to the Oneness of ALL Life and the manifestation of Heaven on Earth.

In order to fulfill your individual facet of this unfolding Divine Plan, go within to the deepest recesses of your heart and ask your I AM Presence how you can be the greatest force of Light, right here and right now. How can you personally add to the Light of the world? What can you do to bring more love, joy, abundance and peace into your own life and the lives of those who are in your sphere of influence? You will be amazed at the answers you receive. This is your moment. Now is the time. Remember and KNOW, this is your purpose and reason for being on Earth at this time.

You have been preparing for this mission for aeons, and everything you need to God Victoriously accomplish your goal is already within you. Trust yourself, and get busy.

Together we will cocreate a heart-centered world where people everywhere revel in the Oneness of all Life, and delight in our diversities. We will cocreate a world that understands and accepts that the infinite Abundance of God is Humanity’s Divine Birthright and that Eternal Peace, Love, Joy, Happiness and every other Divine Quality of our Father-Mother God are the order of the New Day on this blessed planet.

As you read the following words, allow them to resonate in your heart-of-hearts, and remember who you are:

THE TRUTH ABOUT ME
As I breathe in the Love of my Father-Mother God, I begin to realize the Truth about me. I came into this world with a very specific purpose. I came to fulfill a mission. I came to Love Life free and to realize the Truth about me. I came to contribute to the salvation of this sweet Earth.

I AM part of God, and the fullness of my Father-Mother God abides in me. In the Mind of God, no one is useless or meaningless. Every single person is valuable and critically important to the balance and order of the Universe. Without me, God would not be complete. Without me, the Universe would lose its equilibrium.

All that I AM called to do, I do with happiness and enthusiasm, for nothing is too insignificant.

I AM now embraced in my Father-Mother God’s Love, and never again will there be a sense of futility in my life.

I AM overflowing with Gratitude for the opportunity to be on Earth at this time. I AM so thankful to be right where I AM, right now, serving all who come my way with love, joy, understanding and forgiveness.

Recognizing my true worth, I now go forth to fulfill my Divine Mission. With my Inner Vision I see the Loving and all-encompassing Light of my I AM Presence freely flowing through me. With my physical sight, I see lavish abundance everywhere.

I AM Peaceful, Powerful and filled with Divine Love, for I remember who I AM.

I AM a Beloved Child of God, and ALL that my Father-Mother God have is mine.

Many of us have now heard of the amazing work of Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len in the Hawaii State Hospital ward for the criminally insane: murderers, rapists etc. who were deemed unfit to stand trial. He went to work there, part time, as one psychologist among the many who came and went.

The ward was violent. Attacks occurred daily between inmates, and often by an inmate upon a worker. Staff members slid down the halls with their backs to the wall. The ward was always understaffed because so many took sick leave. Inmates were often shackled. There was little recreation and no outside work. The ward was in woeful physical condition.

Dr. Hew Len did not see patients one to one. Using an ancient Hawaiian Kahuna method expanded for our times, he would study the file of a particular inmate, and then begin to ask forgiveness of the divine that he saw violence in the world through this inmate. He took responsibility for creating this violence. He used the phrases “I’m sorry, please forgive me, thank you, I love you.” He would feel love for the inmate, sometimes voiced inwardly as “I love you, I love you, I love you.”

Dr. Hew Len became a member of the ward family, as he tells it. Others of the staff noted that he always seemed to have fun. And to the amazement of every person there, violence gradually began to subside. Inmates started enjoying outside recreation and doing some work, like washing cars. Shackling stopped altogether, even with those who had been the most violent. Some of them healed and went home. The ward slowly morphed into a happy, safe, loving place (which became overstaffed!). Eventually all but two of the original inmates became whole again. Dr. Hew Len stayed for about three years.

Joe Vitale, an inspirational author and Internet marketer extraordinaire, discovered Dr. Hew Len’s work and sent out an email in 2006, telling about it—an email read by millions. Joe became so intrigued by this story that he contacted the doctor and began to correspond with him. He took Dr. Hew Len’s classes and the two became friends. The result is an awesome book they co-authored, Zero Limits. I recommend it beyond any work I’ve read in a very long time. I would like to tell little enough so you are encouraged to buy the book, which is so much more complete than anything I can write here; and enough so you can do the bare practice without it. (Also, forgive me if any of my facts are incorrect; the book is here on my desk, but I don’t always find something I want to verify.)

A basic understanding of Ho’oponopono is that what has held each of us back, from loving as we long to, from creating as we wish, are the things that are not us: memories from our past, including programs and beliefs of present and past lives. New life experiences come either from memory or from inspiration.

When we get to “zero”, then we are simply ourselves, our divine selves, able to love wholly, be wholly loved, and create what springs up from the divine within us. We come from inspiration. The idea is that “cleaning”, or what we usually call “clearing”, to get to zero, is all we need to do. A quote from Joe in the book: “Zero Limits is about returning to the zero state, where nothing exists but anything is possible.”

When Joe attends one of Dr. Hew Len’s workshops, a fellow attendee is a salesman of luxury cars who makes a stunning amount of money. Joe asks him his secret. He tells Joe that he has no goal to sell cars; when people come to the showroom, he just cleans. He loves. Joe is flabbergasted because he has worked so hard (and written so many books!) on how to create through intention. This is an example of the teaching that all we need to do is clean.

One understanding in Ho’oponopono is that we do not know everything and cannot control the flow of life. Obvious, yes? Yet how many of us have deeply accepted this truth?

Another understanding is that it is not the conscious mind that creates. That’s why, as Joe says somewhere, we can say prosperity affirmations until we’re blue in the face “and still be broke.” The conscious mind often initiates an intention, but the subconscious is the creator. Cleaning clears the subconscious.

A central facet of the teaching is that we take responsibility for everything we notice in our lives, both pleasant and not. This is a hard one for most of us. Our outward sense impressions are carried to our brain and interpreted there; everything is inside us. We’re the creator at the center of our own universe. We’ve heard these things, and if you’re anything like me, the mind goes bonkers trying to wrap around it. I attended a talk by Dr. Hew Len, and he joked that “If there’s a problem, you notice you’re always there!” This means (if we know about it) that we are responsible for the war in Iraq; for George getting into office; for Barack Obama being elected (there’s one most of us can live with—hallelujah!).

I think the idea is that if we are totally harmonious inside, totally loving, we simply do not label anything a problem. We love; we allow. We can still act to change something.

When I was recently on a radio program, talking about Ho’oponopono, a woman named Julie called in to share her experience. She has a sister-in-law who seemed to hate all of her new family. Everyone was upset by this new person. Julie learned about the process, and began to say silently to her new relative, over and over, “I love you.” Within a very short time, family dynamics changed dramatically for the better. Now, if there seems to be some difficulty at a family get-together, Julie restarts her inner loving words and all becomes serene again. She was very excited about the endless possibilities of Ho’oponopono.

Cleaning happens in any number of ways. Dr. Hew Len says that because we are each different, different methods work for us. Many, including myself, balk at saying “I’m sorry, please forgive me” to the divine, even if it is only to help us—the divine certainly doesn’t need it! But “I love you,” and “Thank you,” feel excellent to most people— to the divine or to a person, a situation, anything that comes into consciousness.

Meditation is cleaning. Every spiritual teacher gives ways to clean. My own cleaning often involves being told about, even shown, past life difficulties by my spirit and going to work to forgive, empower myself, clear it all out and move on. We do it however we do it.

Dr. Hew Len lives, eats, and breathes cleaning. He has even trained his subconscious to clean while he’s asleep—he says you can talk to your subconscious and convince it to do this. Whenever he plans to fly, he begins cleaning the plane, the staff and the passengers to make sure all is well with the journey. He says “I love you!” to his food (he loves hamburgers) and then knows it is perfect for his body. Before speaking, he cleans on the group and the whole area days before he arrives. He loves to clean, and gives thanks when he learns about something that needs it.

This constant activity feels a bit fanatical to me; my own path seems a different one. But Dr. Hew Len has inspired me to silently say “I love you” and often “Thank you” to everyone and everything in my vicinity, as much as I can remember. Also to myself, my body, my food and my cats’ food. I often, and I know others who do this too, ask forgiveness inwardly of a person I have perceived as less than the Christ, and then affirm that they are indeed the Christ. These practices lift my energies, and I trust my love reaches all to whom it is directed. I don’t have miracles to report, I think only because I have been oriented to love, as best I can be, for a long time. But I do recognize that I can love a great deal more. Life seems to be more and more about seeing goodness and beauty (the divine) and loving it, in everything, all the time.

Ho’oponopono is a rare path that teaches eternal truths, unique and compelling. Dr. Hew Len is an evolving person in a baseball cap who’s promised himself a big ice cream sundae the first time he is able to make it through a day without judging. But he is also entirely himself, a being of love, compassion and humor, living pretty much 24/7 as A Course in Miracles tells us: use our life in a human body for the good of all life.

If you would like to hear a radio program with Dr. Hew Len, go to www.bbsradio.com, Station 1, and to the archives of the show “Miracles Happen, Dreams Do Come True” with Iris Jackson, for Monday November 3rd of ’08, 2:00 pm. (There’s a small fee, I think less than $5, to become a member and have access to the archives.) This show is wonderfully fun, full of laughter and enlightenment. The following Monday November 10th Iris and I, and caller Julie, talk about Ho’oponopono, and the miracles that abound around it.

When I channel Amma the Divine Mother, I rarely know will come through. Amma, as I channel her, focuses on love. She continually teaches about the importance of staying in the heart center and affirming that we and all those in our lives are Love Incarnate.

While giving a workshop in Japan, Amma gifted us with what is to be an element of the energy structure in everyone. This energy structure, known as the Heart Hologram, will be transmitted from person to person each time someone who has the Heart Hologram connects heart to heart with someone else.

The purpose of the Heart Hologram is to raise the vibration of humanity and assist in the assimilation of the powerful energies coming into the planet. This, of course, will faciliate raising the vibration of the planet. Just as the energies are entering the planet for everyone without the conscious permission of anyone, the Heart Hologram can be transmitted to anyone without permission. What they do with the Heart Hologram is totally up to them, just as the strengthening of the energy field is the responsibility of each person

You can receive the Heart Hologram right now. The process is simple and easy. Enter your heart center and ask Amma to please give you the Heart Hologram. Gently "Om" into your Heart three times. For those that can "see" energy structures, the Heart Hologram will a form of Sacred Geometry. Now "Om" three more times into your heart to strengthen the Heart Hologram. Everytime you "Om" into your Heart Hologram you will strengthen, not only your Heart Hologram, but everyone's Heart Hologram. I will Om into my Heart Hologram, out loud or silently, throughout the day. Although there may be many different sacred geometrical forms of the Heart Hologram, there is only one Heart Hologram. Humanity has different appearances, but we are still One.

Because I have had so much practice - I like to help others when the time comes to send our furry beloveds over the Rainbow Bridge. The following was created for Josie, an elderly Gordon Setter. Please adjust it for your own needs:

‘Do allow quality time for you and Josie to be together. Get up early if necessary. The previous days also. You will treasure this time, always. Make it a beautiful occasion for the people involved too. Gentle music perhaps. A candle, some lovely flowers - something symbolic of the season.

Explain to Josie all that you feel, what will happen and why. That others will be there to see her off, her other animal and human friends. That apart from the day she was born, this is the most important day of her life on Earth. Remind her of all the fun things she used to do as a young dog, tell her - very soon, she will be able to do all those things again, and more. She may get quite excited! Don’t get too carried away, one friend kept this up for days, and by the end of the week her ancient dog was whimpering and wriggling like a puppy. Treat this day as a Special Day. It is. For my darling Tiggy, an hour after her breakfast of roast chicken - she enjoyed tomorrow’s breakfast too! And she sat, one last time, in the garden - and enjoyed the amazing and interesting things that only she could see and hear. For precious Loreli, we dressed in our special white dancing clothes, and wore beautiful crystal necklaces.

Tell Josie you are planting something in the garden in her memory. You may like to have a large blanket or sheet handy, to place over or around Josie once she leaves her body. She had a good time in that body and it deserves respect. Loreli’s resting place was filled with fresh Rosemary. For Tiggy it was lots of small Pine branches. For Lorna and Lilly, it was a nest of dried grass mowings and flowers. For Princess Olivia, sunshine sprays of bright yellow Kerria, placed upon her own nest of sweet smelling grass mowings. Be sure to explain to the other members of the household what is happening. Even though Tiggy was so old and tottery - the other three dogs looked to her as their Wisdom Elder, their pack Leader. And they missed her greatly. On the morning of Loreli’s departure, Lorna wanted to be by her side, touching her, nestled up closely to her. If Loreli moved, Lorna moved with her. Candace on the other hand, had great difficulty accepting what was happening. She wanted to hide, she needed to be held. Tightly.

These thoughts seemingly gave Josie’s person ‘permission’ to make arrangements for Josie’s departure. She phoned the vet and went straight out to buy every white flower in town. By the time her husband arrived home, the room was filled with flowers and candles and all the dogs were ready. ‘Is something happening I don’t know about?’ he asked.

From now until January 1, 2009, I am offering Vibrationally Encoded Soul Portraits for just $245 (a hundred dollars off the normal price). A “Vibrationally Encoded Soul Portrait” contains tones, vibrations, colors and high frequencies of love and light to activate your mastery coding in your divine blueprint that will propel you to great levels of Ascension and enlightenment. It will help you connect with the greatest and most loving aspect of your soul and monad - so that you can express your soul purpose and fulfill the plans and contracts you agreed to do prior to incarnation on Gaia.

For instance, if you are coded to be a healer, this soul portrait will activate your healing mastery. If you are coded to bring to this world higher wisdom through books and teachings, then that mastery will be activated. In addition each of these images will bring you great healing. The highest level aspect of your soul and monad has a very high vibration and the more you are able to connect with this deepest part of you, the more joyful, happy and abundant your life will become.

Please realize that each and every one of you reading this message is a master healer. You just forgot this truth as you incarnated into this vibration of density. It is the love and sequences of light embedded into this magnificent soul portrait that trigger and awaken your inner healer to do what is natural to your spirit; to be healed, balanced and in harmony with all of Creation. And as you embody and express more and more of your inner divinity, sickness and illness can not exist. The mastery you are awakening to is as unique as your fingerprint. It is the mastery your soul encoded in your blueprint to be expressed in this lifetime that is awakened throughout your lifetime by great emanations of love from the cosmos. Each Vibrationally Encoded Soul Portrait is created using acrylic paints and is around 16" by 20" long on coated canvas textured paper (Canson Canva-Paper).

Let me introduce you to a Being of Ancient Wisdom you may not have heard of---Pogo. He lived in a swamp and through many Presidential elections in the US. Once upon a time the swamp decided to run a little Bug for President. This litte Bug could only say, "Jus' fine." I think he won.

Another Presidential race saw two characters, Tweedledum and Tweedledee. They had whirlygig devices on their beenies. I don't remember who won that race as they were mirror-images of each other.

When you read this we will already know who won this time. I have been voting since January by daily doing the Invocations for Divine Government. As God's Light is Always Victorious, the Right Man Won. On many levels this Good Man represents the highest and deepest of Pogo's Wisdom:

"We Have Met the Enemy---And He is US."

Sept, 2008 in Peru, for the 14th Annual Solar Wave.
We never know what we will experience in sacred sites, even if we have visited them over and over again. Sometimes they are pumping out powerful energy, and other times they lay still like silent sentinels. Sacred sites have their own time, and it is our challenge to be in sync with this cosmic timing. This is why each time we visit a favorite, sacred site, we always try to enter as if it was our first time. This way we are not closing our minds with mechanistic behavior of past expectations and experiences.

We have learned from past experience that just when we think we understand a temple site, it surprises us with sharing or offering something different than before. The Maya sites of Copan in 2007, and Palenque in March of 2008, began showing us that sites were shifting and opening in ways that I was shown in a vision over 18 years prior. We expected Peru to follow suit.

You don't have to be a gifted clairvoyant to understand there are many signs pointing to great change in the days ahead. These signs begin as shifts in spirit, or shifts in our collective consciousness. Once a shift is created in spirit, then it begins the process of becoming physical in the manifested world. The shift manifests as creative potential, or a message, that is anchored in sacred sites and vortexes all over the world. Once the energy is anchored this message slowly spreads across the planet for all of humanity to tap into. Most sacred sites were created for this purpose, to be an anchor and act as a conduit for all things created in spirit. This is the process of manifestation, or what we also know as the law of creation. I am sure you know by now that you are the ones doing the creating, by your thoughts, desires, hope and dreams.

It was on our recent trip to Peru that we witnessed huge, glorious, wondrous signs in the sky pointing to great change and possibly the birth of the fifth world. It was also a pilgrimage that we learned the absolute dramatic power of creation, and how intimately we are a part of it. New friends were made, and new messages were received. I received new messages from ones called the Original Ones. In Machu Picchu, I was contacted by ones I call the Machu Picchu Oracles. Lastly, I received a powerful message from what I can only say came from the spirit of the Peruvian Andes themselves, The Apus… along with Lord Meru (These messages will be coming soon in the next newsletter). But the most impressive and auspicious event on this journey was the repeated appearances of a phenomenon called Sun Dogs.

We saw our first hint of a Sun Dog in the Ancient Lumerian city above the village of Pisac. The sacred site of Pisac is unique in that it holds a piece of another planet. In the center of this site, is a huge meteorite from the planet Maldeck. For those that don't know about Maldeck, it was a planet that was the same distance from the Sun as the Earth, but on the opposite side of the Sun. When it was destroyed in eons past, it became the asteroid belt that we cross through each August. A lot of the debris from the destruction of Maldeck fell in South America. Some of Cuzco, Peru is built out of stones from Maldeck. You can still buy small meteorites in the markets. The main meteorite in Pisac was used as a hitching post/anchor of the Sun, called Inti Huantana. This is one of those sacred sites that the message of creation comes to first. It was at this Inti Huantana that Spirit allowed me to make my first Pisac Sacred Site Essence that would assist in bringing the Light of the Universal Sun into our hearts. As I was making the essence, I looked up, and saw the edge of a Sun Dog that was just becoming visible in the setting Sun. We felt it was a powerful message for the essence, and the group felt uplifted by being in the presence of it. (Go to our essence webpage for more information on this new Inti Huantana Sun Dog Essence).

Another Sun Dog that appeared during our journey was at a site called Ollantaytambo, at the other end of the sacred Valley of the Inca Masters. The name Ollantaytambo means "City of the wind". Ollantaytambo is a powerful site. It is a place where three canyons with rivers merge. Most places where canyons and rivers intersect are considered a power place, or a vortex. Again this is another sacred site that the message of creation is anchored. It is still speculation that the entire mountain sides have been carved into Peruvian spirits. The East view from the Temple of the Sun at Ollantaytambo faces a huge mountainside where Wiracochan has been carved. Wiracochan was considered to be a preacher of great wisdom, the master of time and space, and is a person with masterful qualities. In the afternoon hours, in a play of light and shadow, Wiracochan appears to wake up.

Ollantaytambo is a massive astronomical site which measures the extreme positions of the Sun by using the intersecting canyons themselves. On the mountainside, as viewed from the Temple of the Sun, the rising sun is lined up with the north edge of the mountain at winter solstice, and the south edge of the mountain at summer solstice. Sunrise at the center peak of the mountain marks both Equinoxes. The Pleiades, during the Winter Solstice (June 21 for the Southern Hemisphere) seems to appear right before Lord Wiracochan's eyes.

We were just entering the ancient city of Ollantaytambo when our second Sun Dog appeared. Usually Sun Dogs are visible only at sunset, but this time it was mid-morning and an odd time for a Sun Dog. Not only was the Sun Dog a full 360° circle around the Sun … but there also was a second Sun Dog creating a rainbow bridge between the two mountain ranges connecting the Lord Wiracocha with the giant condor, another powerful Peruvian spirit. It was particularly colorful and powerful. We knew this was extremely auspicious, and we felt quite elated. There is no question at this point where we were going to visit first. We headed right for the spot where the rainbow touched the condor.

Under the condor rock is a powerful altar that is a thick, long, flat stone . . . just the right size to lay down on. We call it the singing rock. When we pound on it, the singing rock sends out vibrations that clear out negative energy from the body, and replaces it with a higher frequency. It was here that we received the message to make the second essence of this pilgrimage (Find out more about the Singing Rock - Sun Dog Essence on our website). We climbed up the steep rock face to place the bowl filled with Ollantaytambo spring water atop the singing rock. We then climbed back down, and I shared with the group a message about this particular Sun Dog (The message we received at Ollantaytambo will be shared in the next newsletter).

While I was sharing the message, we had a visitor join our group. I didn't know who the man was, but I really liked his energy. He said that it was auspicious that our group had arrived at the moment the Sun Dog appeared. I also realized it was auspicious that he was here also. We invited him to join our circle, and he shared a few words of wisdom. When he left, I was told who this man was. It was Juan Nuñez del Prado who is a well-known anthropologist and Andean Priest. He has studied Andean tradition for 34 years and has trained with Q'ero priests. I just love the convergence of synchronicities on sacred journeys. This was a good one. It was wonderful we shared the energy of the Sun dog together.

Well, at this point we thought we could never see a more powerful and beautiful Sun Dog than the one that was in front of us at Ollantaytambo. We went on to Machu Picchu for several days without seeing another Sun Dog, and also not being called to make another essence (even though we carried the bowl around everywhere we went). As our days filled with other amazing energies and messages, the memory of the amazing Sun Dogs began to fade. We had a simple but powerful, Solar Wave Ceremony mid-day on the 22nd, and I had a nice meeting with new friends I call the Machu Picchu Oracles (The message I received from the Machu Picchu Oracles will be in a future newsletter).

For those of you that don't know what a Sun Dog is, here is a little 3D background information. A Sun Dog, also know as Sun Bows or Whirling Rainbows, are a phenomenon which creates a 360-degree circle rainbow around the Sun. They usually occur at sunset. An increase in Sunbow activity is considered auspicious as it can mark the entrance into the 5th World . . . the Age of Flowers. It can be a messenger of coming emerging understanding and awakening consciousness. In some indigenous communities, it is considered a great sign from the Creator. It has long been prophesized that times of great change and transition would be signaled by an increase in the number of visible Sunbows. Some say that these full-circle rainbows around the Sun may be understood as a sign to humanity of the necessity to live a life in respect and harmony with all the creations that make life possible: plants, animals, waters, minerals, winds, and other human beings of all races and religions. There are signs reminding us to wake up, pay attention, and be responsible for our creations.

By this point, it was clear to me that the energy had increased in Peru's sacred sites considerably from the past year. It was clear that the heart of Machu Picchu was amplified. Everyone in the group could feel the beautiful welcome from the three sacred mountains (Apus) surrounding the ancient city of Machu Picchu. Because of the heightened energy, we found that we were becoming physically and mentally tired more quickly than usual, and that we needed more down time. Spiritual pilgrims visit sacred sites for entirely different reasons than typical tourists. Because spiritual pilgrims intend to awaken their soul and expand their spirit, there is a lot of work that goes on that you can't see with your eyes, or hear with your ears. We explore the site, and take photos like other tourists, but our hearts are open to receiving on many other levels. It takes a great deal of effort and energy to stay open and receptive to be able to reclaim the subtle energies and ancient history that is anchored here.

After a visit to Machu Picchu, we headed back to Cuzco for a much-needed integration day. Cuzco is considered the Naval of the Earth. It was a good place for us to integrate the energy and messages that we had already received. The next day we planned to kick up the energy to another level by going to Lake Titicaca. Archangel Michael jokes and says Lake Titicaca isn't for sissies. The Lake is a powerful force in which one can be tested to the limit as we are called to walk and live our truth on all levels.

We had a beautiful crystal bowl concert by our new friend from Puno, Ernesto, at the Aramu Muru multi-dimensional doorway. This doorway is near the shores of Lake Titicaca in a region known by the locals as the Valley of the Spirits. Aramu Muru's dimensional doorway is carved into a huge, prehistoric looking, rock face. The local villagers are bit superstitious about the doorway. They share stories about people vanishing through the solid rock. This is the day that I really hoped I would lose group members. I am sorry to say that our headcount back on the bus was just the same as when we arrived. One of these days we plan to lose someone through that rock :-) . I hope it is me!

The next day we began a three hour boat excursion to Isla Taquile . . . my favorite place in the entire world. The locals and myself agree . . . we call it Heart Island a.k.a. Isla Corazon. Isla Taquile has a tangible quality of peace and serenity and also exhibits a superior model of conscious community. I feel Isla Taquile is a living model for the rest of the world to learn from. There is no crime, no competition and a great sense of belonging to each other. Everyone shares in the work of the island, from children to elders. Everyone contributes in the way that they can. It is a beautiful place to spend time in the temples of our hearts.

On the way across the blue waters of the lake, the third and most powerful Sun Dog yet began to appear over the boat. It was a double Sun Dog with a faint, third circle that created a Vesica Pisces. It was the flower of life in the sky! There was no mistaking how the Sun Dog made us feel. We were in disbelief and ecstatic all at the same time. It was so incredible that for a moment I even thought I was imagining it. It was clear we all felt greatly blessed. But this Sun Dog was different from the others. It was darker in the center than on the outside of the rainbow. It almost felt like a living spirit. Some even felt like it was a UFO hovering above us. Others felt like it was a portal to a new world. These are all the things our minds did with the ecstatic feelings we were having. But I was clear that this Sun Dog was sharing energy that was way beyond what our minds could conceive of in this moment. As we say "as above so below". It was definitely a peak experience that we are still trying to understand, and we are most excited to see it manifest as a physical reality.

Our boat arrived at a private area on the Lake. It was a beautiful pristine beach. We took the next hour to meditate with the Sun Dog, and wade up to our knees in the crystal blue water of the sacred Lake. It was here where we got permission once again to make an essence. I placed the bowl, filled with water from the lake, on a rock directly underneath the Sun Dog. I asked the energy of this Sun Dog, what we felt was a portal to a new world, to enter into the water. I backed away and let Spirit do its magic. I didn't see it, but someone said a V shaped cloud formed over the bowl, and bit by bit the Sun Dog disappeared into the water. It was done.

The next morning we hiked to the very top of the island. This is my very favorite spot on the entire island. We call it the Lord Meru Temple of the Heart. At nearly 14,000 feet above sea level, it is not an easy climb. I have to admit that I used wings from Red Bull to lug my physical body up there. Archangel Michael gave me some help also. It was worth it. About half the group made it to the top. Here we had our final meditation, ceremony, and message from Spirit, while in a sacred site. And yes, we had another Sun Dog. At this point, it felt like the phenomena of the Sun Dog was stalking us around Peru. The Sun Dog paparazzi maybe? The fact that the Spirit of the Fifth World could be stalking us was quite a compliment. But we knew we just happen to be in the right place at the right time. Thank the great creator for this. We did not want to leave the island, but the 3-D world has its own time. Even though our spirits are eternal, our physical bodies still have linear time to adhere to.

That afternoon we boarded the boat back to the mainland. We did not talk about it, but most of us did not want to leave the island or Peru for that matter. Halfway across the lake, a bizarre storm came to greet us. 10 foot waves crashed over the bow of the boat. It was almost like the waves were pushing us back to the island. Everything we had learned on our spiritual path we had to put into play in this moment. We had to face all our fears and remember to stay in the heart. We had to let go of everything. We even had to let go of the fact that we might not live another hour on this Earth. It was a strange feeling that this could be the proverbial "IT", but I also could see all of us continuing on, sharing all that we had learned, and see the birth of the fifth world.

The storm was relentless, even sinister, as it pushed us through all remaining negative emotions we could possibly have. We felt like we were not moving forward, or backwards. It did not appear to us that the mainland was getting closer. There was an eternal moment in which an unrecognizable line was crossed. It felt like a line between the old world, and the new world. It was a line between the past self and the future self. The storm shifted. It literally split in half. The storm waves were now behind us pushing us toward the safety of the mainland. The lake was working with us, instead of against us. By this point, we were all holding firmly in our hearts that we would arrive at the mainland. We were no longer saying in our hearts "I don't want to go home … I don't want to go home". We were saying "I want to make it to the mainland, I want to go home". Our boat surfed huge swells all the way to the safety of the mainland.

By the time I returned home, I realized the power of the lesson learned in the storm. It was a great confirmation that our group had collectively moved a step closer to self-mastery and co-creators of our reality. The Star Elders shared that everything we think, feel, and hold our hearts will manifest in the new energies of the fifth world. So… if we were saying in our hearts that we don't want to go home… we don't want to go home, what do you suppose the universe would do to manifest those feelings? Would it push us back to the island? Would it keep us from moving forward? Would it sink us right then and there? This is the great lesson we all must learn in the coming days and months as we move closer to shifting into the fifth world. Pay attention to what you are thinking. Pay attention to what you are feeling. Think about it. If the unconditionally loving and non-judgmental universe is listening to you, what would your thoughts and feelings create for you?

This is a powerful time. The birth of the new world is written in the sky. All that which has been birthed in Spirit eventually manifests in the physical world. The process of the birth of the Fifth World has begun. The shift toward the Fifth World can be felt by any one with an open heart. The fifth world will be what we wish it to be. It is a world that we will create together. It is time for us all to be completely conscious of every thought and feeling, because we are get in the next moment, day, weeks, and years, is exactly what we have asked for. We are becoming Masters. We are becoming Creators. Do you know what your heart will create for you?
