A quick report-back after the event from the facilitator

10 April 2009

Greetings from Edna, and thank you for being part of yesterday’s event!

Yesterday, there were around 222 participants consciously tuning in from different parts of the world. The treatment began at 3.30 pm local time (6.30 pm GMT/UTC)and the first hour or so was spent connecting to all the participants, one by one, and to the collective morphic field of the planet, and starting the treatment process.

It went into “5^th gear” from around 4.15 pm local time (7.15 pm GMT/UTC) and continued for the next 3 hours, ending just before 6.30 pm local time (9.30 pm GMT/UTC)

I am including my own feedback below, as well as from our surrogates.

A quite extraordinary synchronicity occurred in that one of the participants saw two eagles in the sky on the day of the event, and two of the four surrogates who have reported back so far mentioned that they'd had a strong image of an eagle during the treatment process! Two out of four, or 50%, is too high to be coincidence, and dowsing confirmed that the animal spirit of the eagle had been with us during the treatment process, though this info was not given during the actual event yesterday. The Eagle represents Spirit, as well as renewal on all levels. See below for more info about the eagle.

Hope you are having a good weekend, and looking forward to hearing back from you.

Lots of love

Edna

Follow-ups for participants

At the end of the treatment process, our collective High Self and the beings who guided the treatment advised that it would be of great benefit for participants to do certain follow-ups in the days following the event:

For all participants: all of us are advised to spend a few minutes each day for the next 3 weeks, doing creative vizualisation while reading through our lists of dreams and visions i.e. picturing the outcome we desire as though it has already happened, and feeling that vibration as much as we can. Another good way to connect each day to the wishes on your list is to put the intentions consciously into a glass of water at night before going to bed, and then drink the water in the morning.

For all the adults who participated: it was advised that we would all benefit from regularly doing watercolour painting on paper.

For all the women and girls who participated: it was advised that all female participants would benefit from creating a ceremony or ritual of their own choice (using elements such as water, fore etc.) which represents the intention to manifest new dreams, and also the letting go of any energies standing in the way of manifesting those dreams, and performing it about 5 days after the event date i.e. 14 April.

For all the men and boys who participated: it was advised that male participants would benefit from doing a simple ritual at night, just closing one's eyes and connecting consciously to one's guardian angels, and asking for protection from them while sleeping. At the same time, visualise your auric field all around you in the shape of an egg, with the outermost layer of protective gold-white light becoming brighter and stronger.

For all the children who participated – it was indicated that the children and babies who were included in the treatment would benefit from being shown how to do simple exercises which utilise both sides of the body and thereby integrate the two sides of the brain. A good example is to draw something simple (like a circle) with the right hand, and then to do it with the left.

For the animals who were included – it was advised that they would benefit from any kind of body work over the next few days, gentle massage, lots of stroking, and so on.

More about the Eagle and the Snake

From Animal Totems:

EAGLE

American Indians see the eagle as a sacred messenger that carries prayers to the Creator and returns with gifts and visions. (So this animal spirit is particularly appropriate to our Extraordinary Blessings event!).We use eagles feathers to connect to this majestic and powerful spirit guide as we know the eagle feather holds cleansing and healing powers. The eagle is seen by many cultures as a symbol of courage, vision, strength and endurance.

EAGLE MEDICINE

Eagles need isolation in the wild to propagate and prosper. This teaches us that we have a singular walk in life and must face life on its terms.
Freedom is vital to the survival of the eagle and this teaches us that all people must be free to choose their own paths; to worship as the Creator leads them; and to respect the freedom of others.
As a lesson in balance and equality, both female and male eagles care for their young.
The Eagle teaches how to master the art of patience and how to move through life without material attachments from their ability to sit for long hours perched on a limb in meditation.
Eagles have excellent hearing and can hunt as much by ear as by sight. To those to whom eagle comes, the ability to hear spiritually and psychically will awaken.
Eagles have sharp beaks and strong jaws that can remove a finger in one snap. The eagle tells us to mind our words and how they affects others; to speak kindly without sharp rancor.
Eagles are renowned for their superior vision, ten times greater than human eyesight. This quality is a gift of vision and clarity that should be used to help others through dark and troubling times.
One who seeks the eagle spirit views situations and other people from a broad perspective for better understanding just as the eagle sees the world from a its great height.
The eagle is a creature of the air, but has strong legs to walk on the earth and often lives near the water for food. These qualities of the eagle teach us to maintain balance in all dimensions to achieve inner-growth. As we soar to spiritual awareness, we remain well grounded in reality as we purify ourselves with the cleansing waters.
The eagle teaches us to have the courage to strive for greater heights of spirituality. The Eagle is seen by American Indians as a connection to the Great Mystery - The Creator of all things.

SERPENT/SNAKE

There are 2,267 species of snakes living in the world today. Snakes have essentially the same organs as humans, but they do not have eyelids or ears. Usually, females are larger than males and most can travel three to five miles per hour. Some snakes are born fully formed, while others hatch from eggs and snakes in captivity have lived over thirty years. Snakes are fascinating creatures that deserve respect. Throughout history the snake has had many legends associated with it linking them to creation, fertility and transformation.

SNAKE MEDICINE

The snake has many symbolic meanings among various cultures across the world. In the Middle East, snake is seen as Mother Earth and immortality. To Christians, the snake is portrayed as evil, lust and temptation. In Asia, the snake is the life force awakened. To American Indians the snake is a friend who shares its secrets of the water element. Altogether, the tremendous symbolism placed on the snake makes it a powerful and worthy spirit guide.
Snakes regularly sheds its outer skin as it grows and a new layer of skin develops. Crawling out of its skin is an important aspect of snake medicine because it symbolizes ways we must move away from old and useless habits and thought patterns as we grow spiritually. It symbolizes death and rebirth.
A snake does not have ears or eardrums but instead has small bones in its head that conduct low frequency vibrations that travel through the earth. Among all creatures of earth, the snake is best equipped to hear the heart-beat, or magnetic resonance of Mother Earth and is therefore able to continually communicate with and be in perfect harmony or balance with Mother Earth.
As a symbol of renewal and transmutation, land snakes do not require food to generate body heat and they lay motionless and soundless against the earth absorbing the heat of the sun and the earth. To those lives to whom the snake slithers into, be aware of its subtle and silent messages. Before this may be possible, it is necessary to become balanced in your path and ground yourself to Mother Earth and all of its elements.
Just before the snake begins to shed its skin, its eyes turn pale blue or opaque giving it a trance-like appearance as if the snake is looking right through you. Snake spirit guides teach ways to look into the hearts of others and find ways to help them along their spiritual paths.

Two of our participants also supplied info about snake and eagle mythology:

The Sufi Mystic Inayat Khan mentions:

'One finds in Greek mystical symbology and also elsewhere the two wings of an eagle, and this is the symbol of consciousness. When the wings are open it means the expansion of consciousness, which can also be called the unfoldment of the soul.'

The Hindus picture prana (life force) as a bird which is named in Sanskrit Garuda, on which rode Narayana, the godhead. The prana relates to the breath which for the practising mystic is the vehicle connecting earth and heaven.

(Thanks, Hanna for this info!)

I have tried myself to find out more about the Eagle as a symbol. We tend to forget the snake, but in the oldest known story of Etana, the first king after the Great Flood (mentioned in the Sumerian King List), the snake and the eagle cannot be separated from each other.

As scientists found out, the story of a covenant between the snake and the eagle was known worldwide, going back at least 10 000 years to the early Neolithicum, thus being embedded deeply in the collective consciousness! Bits and pieces, which complete the Etana-story, known from Sumer, have been found recently in Central Asia (Kurakum). Because this story is quite revealing, I would like to share it with you.

In paradise (or the Golden Age), the snake and the eagle lived together in peace. But one day the eagle steals the eggs of the snake which becomes angry and locks the eagle up in the underworld. The Sumerian king Etana, who cannot father sons, makes a (new) convenance with the eagle. He will set him free when he can ride on his back into heaven. And so it happened. After the kings return to earth he fathers the sons he has longed for.

The latest story of Etana (being able to transform the snake to the eagle within) was written down by the Babylonians. When the king flies on the back of the Eagle and cannot see the land below anymore, he becomes deadly scared and commands the Eagle to return to the ground. Immediately Etana and his eagle fell down to the earth.

Afterwards only the highest Gods were able to fly on the back of the eagle, e.g. in Hinduism Wischanu, while in Christianity the eagle became a symbol for the Ascension of Christ!

(Thanks, Christa, for this info)

And regarding the subject of Rebirth and Easter,this info from one of our participants in Cape Town, South Africa:

Thanks for the slide show of the eagle. On the same issue of rebirth, I quote below something pertaining to Easter that appeared in L.'s Waldorf school newsletter. I thought of you while reading the last few paragraphs because you once said to me that you've realised that it's not what one buys one's children, but the time you spend with them, that's important.

A Gaia Waldorf teacher's summary of a talk she attended... about why we celebrate festivals in Waldorf schools:

"The archetypal thought surrounding the celebration of Easter is one of death and life, or death and resurrection. World religions have differing thoughts about death; some say that after death there is death, some say there is life, and some believe in a rebirth into another reality. What is life after death? We face this question in the Christian festival of Easter, where Christ’s life came to an end and three days later He was resurrected. This is celebrated because it is the archetype of our life. During our lives we face the cycle of death and rebirth often, although we use different words for it like burn out, depression or a crisis, but this is a form of death and the question is: how do we come out of it?

A 14^th century mystic once said, “Those who don’t die before they die, die when they die.” When we allow a part of ourselves to die, we’re most alive. We can die when we suddenly realize we haven’t done what we had planned to do with our lives. We ask ourselves “Who am I? What have I done with my life?” This is a kind of death, and rebirth comes with the realization that we have to change. We develop or evolve towards a form that we know we need to develop towards and during this process we go through periods of joy and despair, or life and death. On one level there is despair but there is also joy because we come out of it with renewed life, like the phoenix rising from the ashes. The blackness of death and the light of resurrection live together.

From the perspective of education we have to prepare children to ride the waves of their destiny, so that they don’t give up when they capsize for the first time. Depression is the fastest growing psychological illness in the northern hemisphere; Waldorf education strives to make children strong for life.

The science of resilience is a study into how human beings overcome stormy times and difficulties; some overcome them easily and others suffer their entire lives. Resilience research has found that the ability to resurrect yourself is not a genetic trait. The quality of resilience is facilitated through education, as well as through certain experiences, especially during the first ten years of life. These experiences relate to the quality of time, for example evening time has a certain feeling about it. This time is softened somewhat by the day that’s gone, while mornings are fresh and crackling with anticipation. This quality of time is experienced by a baby from its earliest days, and is reinforced with regular feeding times, and other routines such as bedtimes and so on.

The best way for creating the experience of the quality of time is through festivals. Easter feels different to Christmas. It is extremely important that children learn to celebrate festivals with adults. If you are raised with an awareness of the quality of time, in adulthood you will be in command of time and with this comes self-discipline."

Feedback from the facilitator

Friday 10 April 2009

For me, the treatment process seemed to start perhaps 24 hours before the official start yesterday. On Wednesday afternoon, I wrote my list of dreams and visions, for myself, and then also for the collective consciousness, in quite a lot of detail.

For a day or two before that, a friend had been communicating with me about the death of her old cat, particularly her feeling of remorse related to not realising that the cat was dying when it became incontinent (the feeling of remorse had also come up repeatedly for the collective consciousness during the 20 March Equinox event). Communicating with my friend had triggered for me some old memories and feelings, which I realised I had been 'holding onto' on some level, about the passing on of some of my own pets, and I experienced an emotional release.

At some point on Wednesday evening, I started to feel slightly nauseous but didn't think much about it and went to bed at my usual time (around 11 pm), slept fine, but woke up around 6.30 am with a queasy tummy. The 9 April also happens to be my parents' wedding anniversary. After getting up, I soon realised I was having quite a big detox before the event, accompanied by diarrhea, and a bit of a feverish and spaced-out feeling.

A short while later, 'out of the blue', I suddenly had a very clear memory of the course of events on the day of my mother's death almost 12 years ago, and along with the memories, a release of old sadness and emotion from that day.... so for me there was also a major detox on the emotional level, hours before the official start of the event. I realised that these old feelings around my mom's death, although there was no real logic in them, must have been holding me back from allowing myself to receive certain blessings, or to manifest visions and dreams on my list. Again, the feeling was one of remorse related to not realising she was going to pass on, the day that it happened.

Well, after that, I took the morning very slowly, and it was just as well that I was very organised in advance for the event, and there wasn't much admin left to do or e-mails still needing a response!

During the treatment process, I continued to feel in a slightly altered state of consciousness, and found myself yawning very often, which is usually a sign that a big release of collective old unneeded energy is taking place.

Within minutes of the treatment ending, I could feel that the 'detox' feeling that had been with me all day had lifted as well, and I went to bed at the normal time, had a good nights' sleep and have been feeling quite energetic and well today.

During the last hour of the treatment, I had not been aware of it becoming darker outside, and at the end, I went outside to be greeted by a gorgeous huge full moon rising up just above the rooftops! Today (Friday 10 April) I feel well and have not experienced any of the sleepiness which often remains with me for a few days after facilitating a group event.

Feedback from the surrogates

Thursday, 9 April

...Very peaceful and calm- aware of tingly sensations in my feet, and an image of joining hands with other surrogates and of being a conduit of light, and a strong image of mankind just simply choosing at this time right now, to actively make a higher conscious thought... To choose to think a level higher than the previous thought ...

Last night I was so sleepy around 9pm that I had to get into bed and rest... I set the intent for the Full Moon treatment and was very explicit about my role, as usual, that all I wanted to be was a conduit of love, harmony and peace universally. Immediately after that I had the fiercest pains around my heart...they were painful and then all went very still and I went into a deep slumber until 01h06 UAE time...

Straight away after waking up it was as if I was forced to go into a deep sleep againand there was a LARGE eagle flying next to me even though I was lying on the ground, and all around me on the ground were snakes and more snakes!!To me the snakes represent the transmutation that is significantly taking place planetary wise as well as myself and we all know what the Eagle symbolises. (Note from Edna - for the native Americans, the Eagle symbolises spirit.)

Abu Dhabi, Middle East

...At the beginning of our event (8.30 p.m. GMT), I greeted you and the other surrogates... Then I expressed my "miracles". After a while I had the feeling I should get up and make my reverence to the four directions, what I did. I got the image of an eagle circling the sky.

...I noticed that the air was very "transparent", looking almost like "water". It was as if I could reach through it to the beings of other dimensions surrounding me. There was nothing to be afraid though, it was a good feeling.

About 3/4 to one hour after the event started, I went into meditation. Immediately my whole body, from the feet to the head, felt highly charged. We were connected and I felt very light. No special images, besides the usual spiral of light in form of the eight. This took quite a while, taking me out of time, so I have no idea how long it lasted.

Afterwards I lay down, and for the first time during such occasions, I fell asleep. I slept through until midnight, got up, brushed my teeth, went to bed and slept through until the morning.

Now while writing this, I feel very good and relaxed. Not more thirsty than usual. There was only twice during the treatment a kind of tickling in the area of my epigastrium....

Zurndorf, Austria.

Yesterday I awoke at 3 a.m. and wrote down my personal dreams and goals and my vision for the planet. Was in a meditative state at 12:30 p.m here in Utah for the next two hours visualizing them as if they'd already transpired. What a glorious feeling came upon me as I focused.

What I gleaned during the event was that all action, thought, belief, word, and speech are movement makers. Thus, movement toward positive thought is ESSENTIAL, and I saw that we've had an entire human history of movement towards the negative..

We are the change agents, for we are descendants of the stars. To make people aware of this is probably our greatest service.

Awoke at my normal hour of 3 a.m. this morn so don't seem to need extra sleep like I did after the Equinox.

Sunday, 12 April

...I am SO tired, it's all consuming - I don't recall ever being this tired! I will write my synopsis as soon as I feel a bit more normal.

Near London, UK

Monday, 13 April

Yesterday (two days after full moon), I felt the strongest physical symptoms after the treatment. Very tired, in spite of a good nights rest, headache and toothache. (Later) yesterday, however, these symptoms were gone.

Zurndorf, Austria

Wednesday, 15 April

...It's been quite an intense week, and I felt too unrooted to write... The treatment itself was wonderful - a sense of the world being made up of fluid crystalline colour and potential.It was also clear that the collective libido was being vitalised... The feedback thus far has been very heartening and informative too.

But then I suppose what also happened - before and after - was a quickening of all the habitual and limiting beliefs, attitudes etc that prevent me from living in this new awareness.... So, the sensation of feeling as 'free as the wind' is starting to feel real -- at last! ...
