Dear Raphiem

This may well mark the end of the rule of dark forces … as of now.

MOMENTOUS EVENTS OF LAST WEEK:

I wrote recently as to whether anyone had noticed anything new "in the air" so to speak...

In my view, last week saw dramatic events, one that has been worked toward for some time now.  The main "fortifications" (think of a concrete-like shell) that has surrounded Earth and has literally served to isolate and imprison humanity/Earth for so long was literally shattered and removed. The more subtle aspects of this prison structure/control matrix are now in the process of being cleared. It is now possible for the highest levels of spiritual energy to reach humanity and Earth.

Before this event, such direct access to such higher levels of consciousness was extremely limited and short-lived. Last year through early portion of this year, these very high levels of Original Source have been probing and testing, trying to find the least risky way to reach us and effect the desired and needed changes.

Now it is possible for this to occur - and in a BIG way.

The energetic "skies" are now to a large part cleared and open.  The possibility of global awakening has never been greater.

Now the big task is the clearing of the worst that has been literally imbedded into the matter and energetic framework of humanity and Earth. Many dark entities who have been "calling the shots" from their Earth platform have been removed. The primary bulwark that has made up the control matrix is gone.

More of the "bad guys" and control matrix backup plans/codes/etc. will continue to be removed. Permanently.

This is still a dangerous time for people since there are very terrible plans in the works by those individuals who have in service to the dark force to make their power plays and grab all they can of the Earth and deny to the forces of Light whatever they cannot control.

Those who are conscious Lightworkers need to be aware of these dynamics and the likely events unfolding so as to best keep their wits -- and to be better able to help others through this most challenging time.

PLAN B:

I wrote sometime ago about "Plan A and B and C". Some aspects of Plan B will be needed to prevent the worst from occurring by these terrible individuals. I am referring to certain solar, atmospheric, oceanic, and tectonic events that will cause some physical misery for some, but will have the effect of sparing so many more the horrors of global conflicts and planned (man-made) harsh living conditions. Remember, the goal is global awakening/ascension.

777 (July 7)

Much has been said about 7-7-7 - The weekend of July 6-7-8 will indeed be a very powerful opportunity to "land" more of our higher planes of existence and make qualitative shifts. The more individuals who can do this, the more they in turn will be able to help many more.

There are also some attempts at counter efforts by residuals of the dark force that are timed to counter this powerful shift. These attempts will be to try to reinforce part of the old control matrix energy pattern. Hence, the best discernment is needed here.

I for one will be giving my attention to the 7-7-7 period and the development and strengthening of the New Earth higher dimensional grids and matrix - and welcoming in the new. Then we shall what is unfolding and what is next.

Subject: Hathors, April 18, 2007

From Tom Kenyon

The following message was given by the Hathors on April 15, 2007.
The ‘extreme wave activity’ they speak about began on April 12,
2007.

The information relative to the Holon
of Balance, and the message about Ecstasy and the Heart.

Wishing you the best,

May all beings be happy. May all beings be free.

The Planetary Creatrix

From the Hathors through Tom Kenyon, April 15, 2007

You are on the brink of an escalation of intergalactic energies
coming to you from deep space. As we have indicated in previous
communications, this wave activity, related to the expansion of
consciousness, is on the rise. Specifically, the expansion of
consciousness has to do with a greater awareness of the subtleties
and complexities of your life as terrestrial beings, but also as
intergalactic and interdimensional beings.

One of the effects of these waveforms of energy from deep space is
an increase in volatility, emotional volatility. As these waveforms
increase in both number and intensity, they will increase
irritability, sleep disturbances, irrational thoughts and
behaviors. These will most likely be acted out between
individuals, but also collectively.

These waveforms of energy from deep space are both a negative and
a positive. They are negative from the standpoint of your status
quo, of your habitual ways of being and operating, for these
waveforms will break these structures down at the most minute
subatomic and quantum levels. And they will create changes in your
physicality and psyches. These challenges to your psyches are a
result of your holding on to old ways of perceiving and being. The
collective effect of this can be quite devastating to the old ways
of living in this world.

The positive of these waveforms of energy from deep space is that
they create an opportunity, a choice point in each moment as the
waves pass through your solar system. The choice points occur as
the waveforms strike the very energetic structures of your body,
your mind, and your interpersonal relationships. The choice points
are a collapsing of your old habitual patterns and an opportunity
to rapidly and radically move in new directions.

In very real ways these waveforms of energy from deep space are
like messengers that unlock and throw open the doors of your
personal prisons. For a moment there is the opportunity for
escape, escape from your own self-made prisons, whether they are
personal, interpersonal, collective or global. The challenge, when
the prison door is thrown open, is to recognize the opportunity
for freedom. When the old ways of being collapse, when the charades
that you have been living are revealed to you, don't shrink from
the experience. The old ways of hiding will not work, for a new
energy is being released into the cosmos.

Your freedom lies in abandoning old ways that do not serve you.
Again, this is true at the very subatomic structures of your
being, through your ‘psychologies,’ and through your relationships.
As the waveforms become stronger, which they will, and as the period
between the waves becomes shorter, it will feel like the pressure
waves of consciousness are relentless, and in the face of such a
pounding, it can feel like insanity or madness. Feelings of
desperation will be on the increase.

But we wish you to clearly understand that your desperation is
self-created and self-generated, as it is a resistance to the
pressure waves of evolution, specifically spiritual evolution. If
you seize the opportunities, the choice points, when your prison
doors fling open, you will find a new freedom, a new way of living
with yourself and with the world.

Those of you who are most sensitive to energy will feel this first.
Those who are mired in the material experience of life and in
their animal nature will seemingly, at first, be less affected.
But as the pressure waves increase, so will their sense of
desperation. And nothing feeds desperation quite as clearly as
perceived threats to one's survival.

In previous communications we gave directions for how to use the
Holon of Balance. We strongly suggest you master the ability to
create them at will. Your experience of life, in so many ways, is
changing at an unprecedented pace. How you move through the narrow gate of chaos is determined not by the outer events of your life,
but by how well your internal compass operates, your inner
intuitive sense of direction.

In previous communications we have given suggestions for how to
create ecstasy or bliss. Our reason for imparting this information
is that ecstasy and bliss are vibrational fields that allow you to
escape the lower vibrational field perpetuated on your planet.
Residing in ecstasy and bliss, or at the very least, joy or
happiness, independent of external factors, allows you to slip
through the doors of your own prison.

From our perspective, which is from other dimensions beyond your
third dimension, your Earth is engaged in an acute struggle
between the forces that would imprison you and those that would
liberate you.

We say this to you with greatest clarity, you are in the midst of a
battle for your very souls, your very spiritual essence. For this
is the greatest treasure that exists upon your Earth, not the gold
or silver or diamonds, but the very ephemeral spiritual spark that
each of you possess. Whether you are aware of your spiritual spark
or not is immaterial; it is still of immense value. The forces
that have imprisoned this planet for thousands of years are
threatened by these waves of energy from deep space. They can be
expected to do everything in their power to continue their
domination of the human spirit. And yet, in the great dance of the
cosmos, there are others who wish to free you, for in your freedom
a great renaissance of consciousness can take place that will be a
great benefit to the entire universe; and so it is that many
beings from many realms, who hold human life as sacred, are here to
assist you. We are just some of them.

Because you are at the brink of this massive increase of
evolutionary pressure, this moment is a critical opportunity to
increase the strength of light, spiritual light, upon this Earth.
And so it is that we present to you our plan for the immediate
future, and if you feel called and aligned with our vision, we
invite you to join us.

We call this the Planetary Creatrix. It is based upon an
interdimensional physics by which we can, with your assistance,
send highly coherent and benevolent forms of energy into the
energetic matrix of your planet. This work is made possible by
something that occurred this last Easter when Magdalen called the
seven great Archangels, and they, through this invitation and the
co-creation of many people across the globe, descended from the
realms of light into matter imparting their highly elevated
vibratory fields of energy into those who participated and into
the Earth itself. Within the Earth they planted innumerable seeds
of light. They are scattered throughout the world. Some of them
are time-coded and will increase their amplification of spiritual
light over time. Some of them will be activated when specific
waveforms of energy from deep space pass through your world. They
are designed, intended to create choice points, opportunities for
increased illumination and spiritual awareness. They are a direct
counterpoint to the forces that would control, manipulate and
imprison all life.

For three days, beginning July 6 through July 8, 2007, we are
calling a gathering in Seattle, Washington we call The Creatrix.
At this event we will impart fundamental understandings and
techniques involving interdimenional physics and the ability to
manifest into the third dimensional world. On Sunday, July 8, from
2-4 pm Pacific Standard Time, using the techniques we have
imparted, all who are gathered will activate the Planetary
Creatrix. We shall be assisted in this by the two earth healing
sites we have established and by those individuals throughout the
world who feel aligned with our vision. During this time, Sunday,
July 8, 2-4PM, Pacific Standard Time, we shall activate many of
the light seeds that were planted by the Archangels this
last Easter.

Preparation

For those who wish to participate with us in the Planetary
Creatrix, but are unable to attend the event physically, some
preparation is needed. Essentially, what will occur during this
time period of Sunday, July 8, 2-4 PM, is that you will use the
central column of your subtle energy body to serve as a conduit
for higher dimensional light and energies to pass through you and
into the area of the Earth where you are located. This will
provide the entry point into the planetary matrix, for you are
standing wave patterns of Earth energies; and because your body is
of the Earth elements, you possess, by your nature, the right and
the inherent ability to impart energies to the Earth.

The more individuals who participate in this, the stronger the
imparting of these highly beneficial energies will be. During this
time period we ask that you set aside outer activities and for
this two-hour stretch of time, focus upon the central axis, the
central column of your subtle body and allow the higher
dimensional energies to enter through your crown and proceed
through your body into the earth. It is important, during this
two-hour period, that you create an alignment of your own energies
with the higher dimensional energies. This is done most
efficiently by placing yourself in the Holon of Balance and by
generating feelings of bliss and ecstasy using the methods we have
given previously. For your ease, we will place the information on
how to create the Holon of Balance and how to create ecstasy
through the heart at the end of this communication.

If you feel called to participate with us from wherever you live
upon this Earth, we ask that you begin to train yourself in
mastering the Holon of Balance and ecstatic states, so that during
this two-hour period in July, you shall reside in a state of
balance and joy or bliss as much as your current evolutionary
state allows you. For those of you who feel called to join us in
the Planetary Creatrix, we bow to you. We bow to the many
spiritual lineages that you represent and to the many
intergalactic beings that you are, and we challenge you to step up
to the higher vision of planetary service that this requires.

Practice and master the Holon of Balance. Master the ability to
create gratitude, joy and bliss instantaneously, without the need
for any outer condition. With these two dynamic fields of energy,
balance through the Holon and ecstasy through the path of
gratitude, you will be able to assist the imparting of these higher
dimensional energies to your Earth for the benefit of humanity,
and you will have a most interesting and compelling experience
during these two hours.

This is a great experiment, a bold action involving the
coordination of many realms of being. Nine days prior to the
Creatrix, on June 29, 2007, we will give further and more detailed
instructions for how to operate during this two-hour period of the
actual Planetary Creatrix.

The Hathors April 15, 2007

Thoughts From Tom on this Planetary Message

I thought I would share some information with you that is not in
this Hathor message, but which they (my group of Hathor guides)
gave Judi and me upon further questioning.

For one, as they say in the Message, the consciousness-inducing-
waves coming to us from deep space are now increasing in both
frequency and strength (amplitude). The current wave that prompted
them to give this message began to arrive in our solar system late
in the evening of April 12th. This wave will last for
approximately nine days (until April 21st). They told us to watch
the news during this period, as there would be increases in
irrational behavior, destructiveness and anomalies in our weather,
and indeed there have been. Shortly afterward, a new series of
waves will pass through our solar system and our Earth. According
to them, each successive wave (with a few exceptions) will be
stronger than the previous ones. In other words, we are not off
the hook on April 21st. There will be wave after wave of
consciousness-stimulating-energy that will pass through our world
for years to come, that's years to come, not months.

There are many ways to look at the effects of these messengers
from deep space. On one hand, they are evolutionary catalysts that
can free up immense personal and collective energy. The Hathors
use the metaphor of opening the doors to our personal prisons,
prisons being defined as our ways of living in relationship with
our selves, with each other and with the Earth. If we are going to
survive as a species, we must change how we are living. Period.
End of sentence.

This is a great potential being unleashed, but it is also
extremely disorienting. Perhaps you have experienced some of these
side effects for yourself, sleep disturbances, an increase of
irrational thoughts, unusual feelings of despair and/or
desperation, extreme sudden and unexplainable fatigue, as well as
emotional volatility. Important Side Bar: Some of these symptoms
can also be indicative of clinical depression, which might need
professional help. If these states of mind and body are not a
constant, seem to come and go quickly, then they are probably not
related to clinical depression, but may be due to the energetic
effects the Hathors are talking about. If, however, these symptoms
seem to have settled in, so to speak, do not come and go quickly,
you might indeed be suffering from clinical depression, in which
case you would do well to consult a mental health practitioner.

The Hathors don't mention it specifically in this message but
there are also feelings of physical disorientation occurring for
many. These include feeling like the world is spinning (which it
is of course, but in this case, the world spins or tilts at
unusual angles). In addition, one's usual sense of dimensionality
(our perception of physical space and interdimensional space)
seems to be changing or morphing somehow. If you don't know what I
mean by this, don't give it a second thought.

While it is probably good to know about these waves from deep
space and their challenging effects, that is not the main reason
for this message from the Hathors.

They are putting out a Clarion Call to the world spiritual
community. They are calling together in spirit, thousands, perhaps
tens of thousands, around the world to join together in what they
(the Hathors) are calling the Planetary Creatrix.

For those who join us in Seattle, Washington for the actual
gathering (July 6-8, 2007), the Hathors will prepare us for two
and a half-days with specific sound meditations and instruction in
the use of multi-dimensional awareness as a key to manifestation.
This knowledge of how to manifest will, I believe, be of immense
value to all of us, but on Sunday, the focus shifts from the
personal to planetary service during the actual times of the
Planetary Creatrix, which will occur on Sunday, July 8th from
2-4PM Pacific Standard Time.

My Thoughts On Preparation

For those who cannot attend the event in Seattle, the Hathors ask
that you train yourself so that you can create the Holon of
Balance at will (see instructions below). They also ask that you
begin to train yourself in creating states of bliss or ecstasy. If
you are unable to generate feelings of bliss or ecstasy at will,
then the Hathors have given a method for creating ecstasy through
gratitude and focusing at the heart (see instructions below). This
union of gratitude and focused awareness on the physical heart
creates a shift in awareness that eventually leads to ecstasy (if
you stay with it along enough).

Now here's the rub. For some people, due to unresolved emotional
conflicts held in the heart, focusing on the heart with gratitude
will often first bring feelings of sadness, anger, etc., to the
surface of awareness. If this occurs, I suggest continuing to work
with the method until the feelings are resolved or transformed.
Repetition is a key to mastery. Eventually, this method will bring
you to ecstasy, but you may have to work through some unpleasant
personal material first. This situation reminds me of the story
about a boy who was given a donkey for Xmas. He entered the barn
where the donkey was, but all he could see was a big pile of
manure. He said, ‘I can't see it, but I know there's a donkey
around here somewhere.’ So in other words, if you get a bunch of
shit coming up for you when you focus at your heart, know that
ecstasy or bliss is around there somewhere.

You have two options, depending upon where you are in your
training when the actual Planetary Creatrix arrives. If you have
discovered the pathway to bliss or ecstasy, then you would be
resting in these highly pleasurable states of body and mind for
the two-hour period. Most likely, if you are like me, you would
create it for a few minutes and then your mind would wander off,
and you would be out of it. Then you would just recreate it and do
so as often as required during the two hours.

If you have not discovered how to create ecstasy or bliss at will,
that is not a problem, so long as you have, at the very least,
learned how to create gratitude. Then during the Planetary
Creatrix, you would hold these feelings of appreciation or
gratitude as much as possible during the two hours.
Essentially what you will be doing during the Planetary Creatrix
is to allow higher spiritual energies to ground into the Earth
through a central energy channel that runs through your body, from
the crown at the top of your head down into the Earth. In other
words, you act like a tuning fork, anchoring these highly
beneficial energies into the region of the Earth where you live.
(As the Hathors mentioned, we will be assisted in this process
through the two Hathor sound temples, one in New Mexico and one in
Costa Rica). In order for this to work, you have to be in a
balanced and coherent state of energy. The Holon of Balance
imparts a sense of balance, and coherency is created by feelings
of ecstasy created through gratitude. If, when the time comes, you
can't create ecstasy through gratitude, then you can go into
gratitude. If you are unable to generate feelings of appreciation
and gratitude at will (see the instructions), then all that will
happen is that the descent of spiritual energy will not be able to
anchor into the Earth through you. Good intentions are not enough
here. A basic level of mastery is required for those who desire to
participate with us in spirit. And so, if you feel called to join
us, I ask you to begin practicing the methods below. I certainly am.

This invitation is being extended by the Hathors to all persons
who share a common vision as to the sacredness of life, regardless
of personal belief, religion, philosophy or life-style. If you
feel the truth of this undertaking, and feel called to participate,
we invite you to join us. As they said in their message, final
instructions for participation during the Planetary Creatrix will
be given at this website on June 29th.

The Holon of Balance

From the Hathor Message of February 3, 2007

We suggest you experiment with this; play with this, and master
this very simple geometry. Carry it with you in your conscious
awareness at all times so that you may create it at will, as
needed, both for yourself and those you are connected to.

It is called a Holon, and the specific one we refer to is the
Octahedron, or the Holon of Balance. Imagine yourself surrounded
by a pyramid of light that extends above you and a matching
pyramid below you. These are square-based pyramids, one pointing
up, and one pointing down. You are in the center of this. If you
are lying down, you are on the square, where the two halves of
pyramids touch, and the pyramid above you matches the pyramid
below you. You make this as large or as small as you wish, so long
as you are completely enclosed within it.

If you are standing or sitting, the axis of the octahedron
extends through the center of your body, so that if you were to
draw a line through the apex of the pyramid through the center
down to the apex of the opposite pyramid, this line would pass
through the center of your body. This octahedron balances energy.
It is the balancing of the male and female aspect of consciousness.
Do not let its simplicity fool you. It is a powerful tool for
balancing subtle energies.

The Hathors

Some Observations from Tom

The octahedron is one of five three-dimensional geometric shapes
known collectively as the Platonic Solids. The octahedron has a
total of eight sides, thus the root octa, meaning eight. The top
pyramid has four sides and the bottom pyramid has four sides, and
the bases of both pyramids meet to form a square. The Platonic
Solids can be found occurring naturally in nature, especially in
the form of crystalline structures, as well as atomic and
molecular configurations. Esoterically speaking, each of the
Platonic Solids has specific energetic effects. Some people have
emailed us and asked if the octahedron is the same as the star
tetrahedron, and no, it is not. The star tetrahedron consists of
two triangular based pyramids, and they are not joined at the base.
They merge into each other. The star tetrahedron also has
different energetic effects from the octahedron.

When I first received information about the Holon of Balance from
the Hathors, I thought it was pretty simplistic. But sometimes the
simple things are the best. There is no doubt in my mind that this
Holon imparts a feeling of balance and protection when it is engaged.

Further Elucidation on the Holon of Balance

We have received several emails asking us to clarify the Holon of
Balance. First of all, this information is for those who have said
they need a more basic understanding of this particular Holon (the
octahedron). It is not intended for the advanced student of sacred
geometry. I have purposefully kept this simple. And the reasons
are two-fold. For one, you do not need to have a complex
understanding of the Holon of Balance in order to use it. And two,
many people are turned off by complex geometries. Since this Holon
is highly effective and simple to use, I have chosen not to
complicate matters. In other words, I choose not to go into detail
about the subtleties between the various Platonic solids or the
intricacies of working with them esoterically.

An octahedron is basically two square-based pyramids joined at the
base. The Holon of Balance is created by forming an octahedron of
light around you through the power of your imagination.

It doesn't matter what color you make it. The color may change
spontaneously, depending upon your state of mind. Personally, I
make mine clear white light, but that is a personal preference,
not dogma. In fact there is very little dogma around this, thank
God, thank Goddess.

The main thing is to make sure that you are completely enclosed in
the space of the octahedron. If, for instance, you are lying down,
the base of both pyramids (where they meet at the middle of the
octahedron) will most likely be right underneath you. But you
could put yourself anywhere inside the geometry. You could hover
up at the top, or sink down to the bottom, or slide over into a
corner. It doesn't matter. And you don't have to orient yourself
to any direction in particular, like north, south, east, west, etc.
There are also no prayers, incantations or special breaths
required. The whole affair is quite simple. And this may be one of
its many saving graces, besides the fact that it works.

If you are standing or sitting, the axis of the octahedron (i.e.
the imaginary line that runs through the top of both pyramids to
meet at the center), would, most likely, pass through the central
axis of your body (running through the crown at the top of the
head, through the perineum). But you could imagine yourself up
near the apex of the top pyramid or down at the apex of the lower
pyramid. In other words, the central plane of the octahedron, the
place where the two pyramids meet to form a square, could be
aligned anywhere on your body. Perhaps you will have it aligned
with your heart, or maybe your head, or perhaps your feet. It does
not matter, at least as far as its balancing effects are concerned.
In actual fact, some alignments of the center square with your
body (i.e. where the square passes through you) may affect you
stronger than others. So I say, experiment! Find out what works
best for you. Although I am being redundant, let me say it again.
It doesn't matter where you put yourself in the octahedron, where
you orient it, or what color you make it. The main thing is to
make sure you are completely inside it.

One final point about the geometry, since some people have emailed
us with this question, is the octahedron the same as the star
tetrahedron? No it is not. They are distinctly different
geometries. Since I am purposefully not going into the details of
the differences, if you are interested in further information I
suggest using your Internet search engine to explore the
fascinating worlds of geometry and its complement, sacred geometry.
There's a whole world of information out there just waiting to be
discovered. And it's all at your fingertips with just a click of
your mouse!

In the message of Jan. 18, 2007, the Hathors gave some information
about sending the Holon of Balance to places or persons in
distress, in order to impart a balancing energy. In this instance,
creating the Holon of Balance (octahedron) is very similar except
for the fact that you are obviously not inside the Holon, the
person, persons or area of the world you are sending the Holon to,
is inside the Holon. In other words, if I send a Holon of Balance
to an area of the Earth, I imagine this area inside the Holon.

You can send these Holons of Balance anywhere on the Earth you
wish, or anywhere in the universe for that matter (if your belief
system takes you there). Sending Holons of Balance is a kind of
benevolent act, but there is a caveat, don't mess with other
people's reality. In other words, everyone has a right to his or
her own suffering. Just because you or I would like someone to be
in a more resourceful state, doesn't mean that they want to be. We
all have a right to be sad, angry, confused or whatever, for as
long as we want. Sometimes it gets a bit fuzzy. Maybe we have a
friend or a family member in distress, and we want to make things
better. But to project our intentions on others when it is not
what they desire, is, I think, a misuse of subtle energy. And so
my suggestion is to send the Holon of Balance not as an imperative
or an imposition, but as an invitation, a breath of fresh air so
to speak. If we send a Holon as an energetic offering of balance
to those who choose to accept it, without attachment that they do
anything, then we are, I think, sending Holons into the world in
the right manner.

My suggestion is to make learning how to create the Holon of
Balance a game. Play with it. Spin it maybe. Make it different
colors. Find where it feels best to you to place yourself inside
the geometry. Practice it at odd times in the day. Create the
Holon of Balance in all types of places. No one will know what you
are doing. Do it when you are shopping, taking out the trash,
feeding your pet, taking a walk, or during those damned
commercials when you're watching TV. The list of where and when
you can take a Holon break is virtually endless. The thing is to
practice it enough so that when you feel off-centered, emotionally
or energetically off-keel, you can, without thought, create the
Holon of Balance. Then it becomes a great ally. It will be one of
your best friends, and unlike a dog, you don't have to feed it, or
take it for a walk, and it won't chew up your newspaper.

Ecstasy and the Heart
Hathor Channeling 4/18/05

We wish to speak with you in this section concerning the
generation of ecstasy through focusing on the heart. We do not
speak of the heart chakra in this instance, but rather we refer to
the physical heart, the heart muscle itself.

This technique involves your focus, or attention, joined with the
emotion of gratitude, or appreciation, which ever you prefer to use.

As soon as you focus your attention on the heart, you may notice a
flow of subtle energy.

From our perspective, your focus of attention operates much like
the central point of an energy vortex. This is especially true
within your physical body and the field surrounding your body, your
energy field, what the ancients called the aura.

Your ability to create a focus of attention is not just a cerebral,
or brain, activity. It is an activity on many levels of
consciousness. Wherever you place you attention within your body,
or within the energy field of your body, there is an immediate
flow of subtle energy to that point, or area, which has an
enlivening effect upon the cells of your body, and/or the luminous
light fibers that comprise your energy body.

Your focus, indeed, creates a warping effect at the subatomic
levels, what you might call quantum field effects. These field-
effects create distinct flows of energy, geometry and harmonics
within you.

To alter the quantum field through the power of your focus is an
important ability we urge you to master. Its applications are
numerous, the cultivation of ecstasy being just one of them.

In this method, you use this ability to hold focus or attention,
joined with the emotion of appreciation or gratitude. These two
emotions have a coherent effect upon your energy field and upon
the rhythmic magnetic emanations of your physical heart. This
combination of focus and coherent emotion can be used to generate
high states of ecstasy.

As we have said previously, the generation of ecstatic states of
consciousness is an important evolutionary catalyst. We strongly
suggest that you learn to create states of ecstasy throughout
your day.

We realize that, for many of you, your daily life may not be
conducive to the cultivation of such states, but we urge you to
find times throughout your day where you can practice attaining
these states for at least a few minutes at a time. A little bit of
time spent in ecstasy is better than no time at all.

This practice will set up a harmonic or a relationship with the
Earth, as a conscious living being, and with the harmonic waves of
catalytic evolution that are flowing through your galaxy.

In this technique you focus your attention on the physical heart.
As you focus your attention on this area, you generate the feeling
of appreciation or gratitude. It is not the thought of
appreciation or gratitude, but rather the emotion. In this method,
thought will not activate the subtle energies needed to generate
ecstasy, only feeling is capable of activating the energy vortices
within you.

As you focus on the physical heart and generate the feeling of
appreciation, or gratitude, a waveform of energy begins to flow
throughout the body, carried by the magnetic fields of the heart,
which emanate outward from the physical heart to encompass your
entire body. As the flow of energy begins throughout the body,
there is a spontaneous arising of ecstasy, cellular ecstasy.

Experiment with this technique. Sense what happens in your body as
you focus upon your heart and generate these feelings of
appreciation and gratitude. Physically feel what seems to be
happening at the cellular level as the one trillion (or so) cells
of your body receive this coherent energy of gratitude
or appreciation.

Once you have established the ability to create ecstasy as
described above, and once you are able to generate ecstasy
whenever you desire it, at will, begin to experiment with your
energy field, what some call the subtle energy body.

In working with this method your attention is, again, on the
heart, generating feelings of appreciation and gratitude. And as
you sense ecstasy beginning to arise in your body, you shift your
attention to the field around your body. This field of energy
looks very much like a luminous egg when viewed clairvoyantly. The
wide part of this luminous egg shape is up around the shoulders
and the more narrow part is around the feet. There is a central
line or axis that runs through the center of this field, and it
happens to also run through the center of your physical body,
through the top of the head and down through the perineum. This
line is the central axis of the magnetic field that comprises the
subtle energy body. This body, or field, extends above the head
and below the feet a few inches, to a several feet, or even yards.
In certain highly charged energy states, the axis and subtle
energy body can expand much farther than that.

By shifting your attention to this central axis and to the field
surrounding your body, you allow the ecstasy to move out from the
physical body into the field. This is very positive and creates
powerful harmonic patterns that bring you into resonance with the
waveforms of accelerated evolution that are flowing through
your galaxy.

Do not underestimate the power of this technique. Though it is
very simple, it is profound and effective. It will bring you into
a higher state of resonance and vibration. And this is, from our
perspective, crucial in order to pass through the energetic
portals and transformational energies that your Earth is now
experiencing and will continue to experience.

There are things we would like to say to you about your nature and
your destiny, but they would, most likely, not be understood by
you unless you are, at the very least, in a state of ecstasy.

This is because the reference point for consciousness is
established not only by belief, but also by one's emotional
harmonics. And without you being in a state of ecstasy, it would
be like trying to describe a sunrise to a blind person who does
not have the ability to directly perceive what you are talking
about. To such a person it would be a make-believe world you are
describing. But if suddenly this person could see, he or she could
sense the sun directly and verify that your description of the
world was accurate. And what was once deemed to be in the realm of
myth will now be seen as real.

And so we leave you in this moment with what may seem like a myth,
but which we hold as self-evident. You are creator beings in the
midst of creating your future and the future of generations yet to
come. You hold within your heart a key to the Mystery of Mysteries.
And the threshold, the opening into this mystery is through your
capacity to enter ecstasy. Be bold and find your path, your way of
living upward into this elevated state of being. Do know, however,
the ecstasy is not the end of the way. It is simply the beginning.

Try the method we have laid out for you here. Experiment with the
methods we have given earlier and that we will give in the near
future. Enter ecstasy whenever you can. Know that when do so, you
enter into communion with all the elevated beings and masters who
have served and who are serving humanity. Know that when you do
so, you enter into communion with your Self.

A Few Thoughts From Tom For Those Learning To Create Gratitude

Some people can immediately go to the feeling of appreciation or
gratitude, just by recalling these feelings. However, some
individuals are unable to experience these feelings without an
outward ‘reason.’ Nevertheless, almost anyone can self-generate
these feelings, at will, with a little training. If you know how
to re-create the feelings of appreciation and/or gratitude,
experiment with creating them at various times throughout the day
so that you can use the method the Hathors have given for
producing ecstasy.

If you don't know how to create the feeling of appreciation or
gratitude at will, here are a few pointers. First of all,
gratitude is just a stronger feeling of appreciation. We are also
looking for the feeling here, not the thought about appreciation
or gratitude. Thinking about it will not create the required
energetics, only emotion will. Some people prefer one term over
the other due to their personal history. Go with the one that
feels more comfortable to you.

The first method of creating appreciation/gratitude involves your
memory. Recall something, someone, or a situation from your past
that made you feel appreciative. It doesn't have to be something
big. Anything that made you feel appreciative will work. As you
recall the memory in detail, the feeling of appreciation or
gratitude will arise. Then let the memory drop away and you will
be left with the feeling. Focus on the emotion and sense how it
feels to you. Repeat the process many different times so that you
get the hang of it. Eventually, you will be able to recall the
feeling of appreciation/gratitude without having to resort to a
memory.
For a few individuals, there is nothing in their past that they
feel appreciation or gratitude for. Believe it or not, this is not
a problem. Simply create a fantasy of something that makes you
feel appreciative. The odd thing is that your nervous system will
respond to both imaginary and real events in similar ways. And the
goal here is not to have something in your life that makes you
feel appreciation, but rather to be able to just create the
feeling (without having to have a reason). If you have chosen the
right fantasy, you will find that feelings of
appreciation/gratitude arise spontaneously. Then, just as with the
memory method, you let the fantasy drop away, and then focus on
the emotion. Practice this many times throughout the day, and
eventually you will be able to recall the feelings without the
need of the fantasy.

There is one more pointer in regards to the fantasy method.
Sometimes, a fantasy of having something to feel appreciative
about will bring up not just appreciation, but also feelings such
as sadness or anger at not actually having anything in your life
to feel good about. If this happens to you, then you must engage a
degree of mastery and allow the ‘negative’ feelings to be there,
while allowing the feelings of appreciation to arise. In other
words, allow whatever comes up to be there, while focusing your
attention on the feelings of appreciation.

For most people, one of these methods will eventually allow them
to create feelings of appreciation/gratitude at will. Practice the
method that works for you as often as you can. The attainment of
an appreciative or grateful state of mind and heart is the minimum
that is required to join us energetically in the Planetary Creatrix.

A Final Note About Workshops

The Hathor Creatrix, July 6-8 and The Sound Healing Training,
August 20- September 3, are the only two major workshops left in
2007. Right after The Sound Healing Training, we leave to teach in
Europe and plan to be out of the country for the rest of the year,
and well into the next. Tom will not be teaching the Sound Healing
Training in 2008.

In addition, we acquiesced to a strong request from Mary Magdalen
to take the work to the East Coast before we leave the country. We
will join several presenters at a Magdalen event in Norwalk,
Connecticut, July 27-29. Please note that we are not the
organizers for this gathering. Direct all inquiries concerning
this event to the contact person listed in the Calendar section of
our website.

The most merciful thing in the world ... is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents... The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but someday the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality... That we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.        - H. P. Lovecraft -

In a broadly interdisciplinary inquiry such as this, communication itself can pose quite a challenge. Typically, the greatest difficulties in communication will occur when one is questioning something already ‘known’ to be true. On matters of underlying principle, the confidence behind established ideas can be so high that discussion itself may seem quite senseless. This difficulty is aggravated by fragmentation of the process by which information is gathered and evaluated. The specialization of intellectual inquiry carries with it certain risks when assumptions within one discipline rest upon prior assumptions in other disciplines. No one can be an expert on everything, and when considering possibilities outside one's personal expertise, it is only natural to defer to what specialists in other studies claim to know. But what are the consequences of this when theoretical suppositions, though perceived as fact, cannot account for compelling new fields of data?

Given the extreme fragmentation of established science today it is difficult to imagine that the enterprise as a whole could ever ‘correlate all its contents.’ Yet extraordinary strides toward that ‘someday’ envisioned by Lovecraft may now be possible through a new approach - one in which electrical phenomena receive the full attention they deserve, and all appropriate fields of evidence are included. To some, the prospects may appear every bit as disturbing as Lovecraft imagined. But for those who instinctively seek out unifying principles, the new horizons will be at once breathtaking and hopeful.

For those with the courage to see clearly, the required ‘unlearning’ of fashionable ideas carries no real cost whatsoever. The terror Lovecraft envisioned is only the first rush of uncertainty, when ideas long taken for granted are thrown into question by facts and simple reasoning previously ignored.

The ‘piecing together of dissociated knowledge’ will only require us to confront the deep contradictions in things experts have long claimed to know. With the courage to see clearly, the adventure itself could well be ‘the most merciful thing in the world,’ adding new insights into the greatest dramas of early human history and vital perspective to humanity's situation in the cosmos. Lovecraft did not realize that the ‘terrifying vistas’ are but a mirage seen through an open door. The truth is always unified, and as such it can only be friendly to those who seek the truth first. As we pass through the door, it is not fear that goes with us, but the exhilaration of discovery.

Red: [narrating] Prison life consists of routine, and then more routine.

I could see why some of the boys took him for snobby. He had a quiet way about him, a walk and a talk that just wasn't normal around here. He strolled, like a man in a park without a care or a worry in the world, like he had on an invisible coat that would shield him from this place.

Red: [narrating] I find I'm so excited, I can barely sit still or hold a thought in my head. I think it the excitement only a free man can feel, a free man at the start of a long journey whose conclusion is uncertain. I hope I can make it across the border. I hope to see my friend, and shake his hand. I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams. I hope.

Here's where it makes the most sense. You need it so you don't forget. Forget that there are places in the world that aren't made out of stone. That there's a - there's a - there's something inside that's yours, that they can't touch.

Not to mention the 50+ year inmate Brooks Hatlen who hung himself for want of escape from the frighteningly unfamiliar world he was forced to inhabit after making parole.

I told them that I knew how to get them out of here and that they didn't have to go to hell.......

And I led them through a very brief energy shifting process where we lightened our vibration, and they could see a doorway to a beautiful, love-filled dimension.......

Unbeknownst to everyone, Andy has long been working on his escape. Each night he has chipped away.......

Red is eventually paroled and sent to a halfway house (the same used by the late Brooks). While Red is initially as despairing as Brooks, he decides to take Andy up on the offer made to him in prison. Red finds a box, hidden by Andy in a hayfield, that contains enough money for him to leave Maine and join Andy in Mexico.

Hope

A major theme of the film is hope, symbolized in the music, but contained throughout the story of the film (even more so than the novel). Using a subdued messianic motif, Stephen King uses Andy Dufresne to bring hope and redemption to the fallen world of Shawshank Prison and its convicted felons –  especially to Red.

The character of Brooks is in contrast to Red because the former had become ‘institutionalized.‘ Red says when discussing Brooks:

    ‘These prison walls are funny. First you hate 'em, then you get used to 'em. Enough time passes, gets so you depend on them. That's institutionalized. They send you here for life, that's exactly what they take. The part that counts, anyways.

Brooks had lost all hope and accepted life at Shawshank as normal, was unable to integrate into society when he was released, and consequently committed suicide. (Symbolically, the novel represented this concept with a bird that was raised in captivity but was found dead in the prison courtyard when it was released into the wild; a scene that was in early drafts of the movie.)

In fact, Red is headed down the same path as Brooks until Andy changes his course by bringing him hope. Andy is thus Red's redeemer (in the religious sense of the word) because he saves Red from the sad end that Brooks met.

As long as the inmates can remember what it is like to be free, and to feel the world on their own terms, they have hope. If someone is in the prison too long, like Brooks, the knowledge of freedom is lost, and a sort of dependence on the walls is formed that leads to Brooks' tragic end. Red initially resists Andy's admonitions and testimony in the power of hope, but by the end of the film he is convinced. The last line has Red confessing, ‘I hope,’ and the film (but not the novel) shows that his hope was well-founded because he finally rejoins his ‘redeemer’ in paradise.

Integrity

Roger Ebert suggests that the integrity of Andy Dufresne is an important theme in the story line, especially in this environment (prison), where integrity is sorely lacking. Andy Dufresne is an individual of amazing integrity (integrity, here, refers to adherence to a code of morality) among a host of individuals without integrity. It is his deep-seated belief in integrity that provides him with the moral fiber to be uniquely distinct from the other characters in the prison. This character trait is absent from both the inmates and the staff of the prison at Shawshank. Many believe that it is his integrity that provides the foundation for Dufresne's hope, persistence, courage, and self-esteem.

I saw an automobile once when I was a kid . . . but now they're everywhere. The world went and got itself in a big damn hurry!

I stood up and attempted to gather people around.  I told them that I knew how to get them out of here and that they didn't have to go to hell if they didn't want to.

When the German concentration camps were liberated, some of the captives were terrified to walk out the gate.

Having said all of this, this WWII POW survival story is a compelling study of what people do to survive. In a sense, we all become rats, with one as king. Much of the book studies the manipulations between folks vying for power.

The ending is perhaps the most frightening part of the whole book. The prisoners are freed at the end of WWII, and as they leave the camp, they must learn to be part of the world again, and not the world they created.
