At the start of the Equinox event, we consciously connected to a total of 188 participants - individual people and animals in different parts of the world, with about half in Southern Africa (South Africa, Namibia, and Botswana), and the remainder in Brazil, Argentina, the Middle East, the UK, Germany, Austria, Norway, Australia, the USA, Canada. There were also a few humans and animals whose current location is unknown or they have passed to the ‘other side’, from where they requested healing on more subtle levels than the physical.

(the day before the event)

... I had quite an experience this morning. I was just making some breakfast and had some nice classical music playing in the background when all of a sudden I started crying. They weren't tears of sadness or happiness. It's hard to explain. It was more like tears of gratitude or love, I don't know – just that everything was okay, a feeling of being surrounded by love.

(Received just before the start of the event)

..Yesterday was an extraordinary day. There were six whales in the lagoon of Langebaan, South Africa, which I could watch from my bedroom window and balcony. They stayed there for most of the morning, it was spectacular. I had to take a swim later to share the energy, and just felt that it was a special day. After the mini tsunami and storms, we welcomed spring in that way. My friend picked up a sea star on the beach (very rare) and also commented that it meant good luck.... I slept yesterday afternoon and am just wondering if this Equinox day already started yesterday?

(Note from Edna: I also had felt sleepy at times the day before the event, as well as yesterday morning, so at the end of the treatment process, we used Gonzalo's arm to do some muscle-testing and ask when the treatment process REALLY began (on the other side) and when it was REALLY going to end, and we got that it began on Saturday and will end roughly 36 hours after the official end of the treatment i.e. only tomorrow morning!!!)

…Yesterday was Very interesting. I experienced many things. I spent some time outside laying in the sun looking up at the clouds. I'm a cloud watcher :-) …There was a point where I swear I saw a little dog. The clouds were darker and grey, which created the shape...just like the dog I had that had become sick and turned on me. I remember immediately knowing what it was and I started to cry because I felt like I was releasing all the sadness that I've held within because of that incident. I loved that dog very much and I knew that he didn't attack me because he was bad, but because he was sick. And I pictured him in the heavens, happy and free…. Around 3:40 pm my time, I was in my house with no TV or electronics on...and I heard a vibration very clearly, the sound of Tibetan singing bowls. I could not pin point an origin. But I heard it. I heard many different types of vibrations throughout the day. I have unusually sensitive hearing normally and I found yesterday it was heightened…. There are many things that happened yesterday, and yesterday will stand out in my mind for a very long time. I am so glad to be a part of it………………..

…..Yesterday I found myself walking around the house and at times I would realize I wasn't walking with my cane. I would just forget to use it. I would walk from the kitchen to my bedroom and think "where's my cane? " Also today I saw my Chinese doctor for acupuncture. When she put the needles in my hip it hurt...a lot. She was surprised at first. After doing acupuncture for over a year now, I know that when it hurts it means that I'm releasing. And the throbbing I felt while I was resting was just that. I do feel a difference today with how I feel.

Wow! I didn't know you used the Tibetan bells! Mama mia is right! I heard a lot of things yesterday, including distant voices....I have been studying the Mayans in depth for quite some time now. Originally my journey began with studying their healing practices...the curanderos in Mexico and the shamans as well. That was only the beginning for me. Yesterday I realized that this distance healing is right in line with how they healed and used specific alignments and days to harness the energy of the universe to aid in healing and balancing people and their communities as well. I wanted to learn these healing methods because my years working in western medicine made me see how ineffective it can be, and does not treat the whole person. But before I could learn, I would have to see through the eyes of the Maya. And that's what I've been doing every since. I began learning the language (yucatek maya) and started teaching myself to write in their hieroglyphics. Three months after that, I was doing full blown oil paintings of peoples’ names. Very strange for someone who has never been to Mexico and grew up in New Jersey, but I rediscovered myself with them. During this event many things came together for me with this also.

Its nice to meet someone that understands things like how the universe speaks. I've always considered myself weird and lived in my own little universe. I've gotten used to it over time, but usually keep it all to myself. I don't have many people to share these types of things with, only my friend L. & a few of my friends that live in Mexico. This distance healing also made me realize to a greater extent that there are others like me out there and I am connected with them. Plus talking to you has been just wonderful & has brightened my days….All the best to you and all that you do!!

I joined you in meditation very intensively during the first 3 quarters of the hour, from 7 p.m. (same time as in South Africa). It might be of interest what happened before.

I was out for a walk looking for nuts - autumn has begun very early this year. At about 20 minutes before 6 p.m. I could fell very intensive, quite destructive, at least oppressing energies, making me tremble inside. This lasted for about quarter an hour. I did not know at this time, that5.40 p.m. was the exact equinoctial point (5.40 p.m. our time). I knew that something quite extraordinary is going to happen. Well. Next morning, when I watched CNN I learned, that "Wall street" has changed for ever, bringing an entire era to an end. During meditation I experienced again the beams of light and this time the symbol of the earth, the cross within the cycle, came up. Afterwards I had a strange metallic taste in my mouth….Lots of Love to you,

…I had forgotten all about the equinox and treatment, I was away and not checking emails, and only realized on Monday that it was the 22nd. I was on a week-long trip … to visit some indigenous communities in northern Norway, and was driving between Karasjok and Kautokeino exactly at the time of the event. On Sunday the 21^st… (i.e. before the start of the event)…. while we were out, I felt one of my migraines coming on, around 3 pm (so about 4 hours before the treatment started). By the time I had to drive that evening, the headache was in full swing. Usually my headaches last for 2 days, but this one lasted for 3, is just going away now that I have arrived back home (I think that I get headaches almost every time there is a treatment)….The trip was so short and I had many appointments scheduled, so I just sort of swam through it all and tried to focus on the place and the people and not the discomfort. I had some very interesting insights into the place and the dynamics, and experienced very warm reception from people who have a reputation for being suspicious of outsiders (especially researchers). Environmental issues kept coming up, even though that was not really what I was looking at. I have also been having very intense dreams, over the last few days, some having to do with revolutions, rebellion, resistance……

…I get (the headaches) a lot and I'm not really sure what triggers them…I don't know if I always got them on the solstice, or if it just started with the treatments. I have been meaning for a long time to keep a record of surrounding events, circumstances, diet, etc., but have been too lazy or busy to do it. I think I will start now, with this one. Also, they are not unbearable migraines like some people get, they are dull aches and nausea that I can kind of function through. So they are not that terrible, just a nuisance.

Maybe I will try asking next time not to have one! I do remember that during the summer solstice this year, I both remembered the solstice and "expected" to have a headache, since I had gotten them most other times...but that one time I didn't! So, they seem to hit me when I am unprepared (either because I forget about the event, or I don't think about getting a headache). Don't know if that means anything.

I don't think I am processing anything on behalf of indigenous communities; I think that they are doing most of their own processing...and that whatever I am experiencing is maybe a kind of an empathetic release, or something. But it is interesting that I often find myself doing fieldwork or traveling in indigenous areas during the treatments, without having planned it that way (3 out of the 4 last treatments, I think - Namibia in December, Botswana in June, and now this one in September….

(This was sent by a healing facilitator who was trained by Edna in Cape Town, and uses Synchronization Harmonics, the healing method we use for the group distant healing events.)

Exactly at the time of your treatment I had to slot in an Synchronization Harmonics treatment for someone, as well as her house, which needed clearing…. I only had a suitable treatment space available at that time … The day before, she went into a hectic detox which was clearly part of the coming treatment for her…. The treatment felt to be on a very high level and it felt, although I was used for certain steps, as if the process was on auto-pilot. Archangel Metatron was present, and later also Merlin, apart from all the Synchronization Harmonics Light Beings.

The next day she reported back that she felt wonderful and that her house feels 'so much warmer'. We'll give it some time and let you know.

My personal affairs re selling and in the meantime possibly renting out my house will unfold. I feel clearer about it and know that I am being guided and helped….Much love and THANK YOU Edna! It is such a blessing to know you and be part of this work.

… I think you were so right on to ask if the treatment was longer than the time you set aside for it. This particular treatment felt as though it extended before AND after much more than the time I'd planned. In fact, I STILL feel dizzy,sleepy, and a bit ungrounded. On the very positive side, synchronicities are starting to happen at a rapid pace again, after taking some months of hiatus. I left the house after …(I) folded up our one tablecloth, just not wanting to use heavy textiles (it's getting hot here in Joburg). And outside the house, a man approached me immediately selling light, white lace tablecloths. Thank you, I bought one! …Same thing with work -- it's finally falling into place, and I got a call for an editing project I really will enjoy: writing a workbook for teens about HIV. Ahh…. Thank you for your amazing work. Peace,

…Looking back now at events before and after the equinox healing it has been difficult to know what affected what! My self growth has been speeded up over the last few months by a healer friend and mentor and just over the last couple of weeks, this has been quite hectic for me. So bearing this in mind I have been pretty tired before and after the event. Broken sleep…feelings of just too much going on on a personal and global level….On the day of the event, … went home to yoga which flowed into the healing session, which was lovely! It was fun to see that mid-way through the yoga I started feeling 'dazed' and thought ha! the healing has started, so must be 7 and then I checked the cell to see it was just about 7.25… wondered if we had started a little later, which you confirmed in your mail after the event! After a short meditation where I seemed to want to focus on abused children ( I don't know why) for this healing, I just pottered around the house, drinking lots of water… enjoying a beautiful calm and then feeling incredibly tired…went to bed just after ten….Even though I was tired, I still had broken sleep….This week has been up and down, culminating yesterday morning with a bit of a 'meltdown'…emotions riding very close to the surface. Thankfully though I am feeling more grounded today and plan to spend a gentle weekend!…Thanks Edna and team…Much love

I had lost track of the day and date, yet suddenly remembered just after 7pm at the start of the treatment. Went to my bed and lay down, tuning in quietly. That night I slept well. The next morning was my first outing to Robertson after 4 weeks due to my op (participant recently underwent surgery). Got a lift there… and then had stitches removed at the doctor. I ended up at the library, hardly believing that I was managing so well. I came home and rested that afternoon,but could feel that there had been a huge shift. Gone was the giddiness, the sense of feeling rather delicate and wary of over-doing things. I'm still resting and being careful, but I feel like a new person. Hooray! Much love...

Its great to read about other people's experiences with the Equinox. Something I've noticed personally is a difference in perception of my environment. I find myself able to put some pieces together that have eluded me for some time. I'm beginning to feel more plugged in (it is hard to describe). I feel calmer and not so scared. I have an "everything is going to be alright" feeling, despite how things may appear....As I told you before, I am deeply drawn to the curanderos and the Maya healers. I have wanted to go to Mexico to learn from them. It is in big part, what motivates me to get better and heal….When I understood what it is that you do, I realized that what you are doing and the concept behind it, is what I've wanted to do. ... I want to thank you for your feedback…You've helped me make some sense of things such as my clairaudience. I have no idea however how to develop any of this, it always "just happens" and I pretty much got used to it. It is rare when I get an actual validation...such as you playing the Tibetan bell. All the best to you!…With lots of love,

…What an incredibly powerful experience. I was visiting my parents and the blessing of the energy held us all in a place of deep healing. It really is such a time of purging the old sticky astral goo that has held us hostage for so long. The old belief systems are falling away and it can be easy to slip into fear. The healings that you facilitate are extremely powerful and full of love and blessing. I feel supported to do the deepest alignment possible within myself….On a physical level, my body is going through a detox and I feel the necessity of quiet and clean foods and lots of time outdoors,deep in the forests and the meadows. I only seem to want to be outside. Every scent of the earth is a precious healing and clearing experience….On a psychological level I am in a place of peace and gentle holding for the healing between men and women on this earth. A large piece of my old pain and my attachment to the pain which is even stickier let go this week. I am so grateful….Thank you Edna and everyone !!!

...it is quite amazing all those incidents that come together to the bigger picture. Thank you for sharing. I thought I have to share this with you, as I clearly relate it with my participation in your equinox event. On the 21.09 a snake goddess, Patthini Naga, came through me to clear my channels and heal - this was my first encounter with such an event. The very next day, the day of the Equinox event, I find the shedded skin of a cobra in our vegetable garden. I guess I somehow have to get this book now. Love and Blessings...Om Shanti

I have to tell you that I was having quite a problem with my neck & shoulders, due to a wrong computer setup. Since the Equinox healing, I have no more pain or stiffness!! Love & blessings,
