Happy Mayan New Year!

It's New Year's Day, according to the Mayan Sacred Calendar. This year's "energy signature" is Yellow Cosmic Seed, guided by the Star. The affirmation sounds like this:

I endure in order to target
Transcending awareness
I seal the input of flowering
With the cosmic tone of presence
I am guided by the power of elegance!


My interpretation: pay attention to what Spirit's asking you to walk through (endure) in order to stay focused on your goal. Go beyond 3-D mind and be present with the celestial choir, which is helping to water the seeds you've planted so they can blossom. Allow grace (elegance) to guide you on your way.

Everybody has a unique "galactic gateway" or "solar signature" with its own affirmation, which helps point the way to your planetary purpose. Want to know yours? E-mail me with your complete birth date (mo/dy/yr). I also do full Mayan destiny path readings.

In Lakéch ("I am another yourself").

R U Sirius? Hot Dog!

July 26th marks the annual heliacal rise of Sirius (meaning, with the Sun). This date heralds both the ancient Mayan and Egyptian New Year — for the latter, it also coincides with the flooding of the Nile, which Egyptians believed Sirius' rising caused.

Sirius has long been known as the "Dog Star". (Trivia: (1) Actor Keanu Reeves has a rock group called Dog Star, and (2) In the Harry Potter books, Sirius Black, an animagus who can shapeshift, transforms into a large black dog.) It wasn't until I happened upon Ellie Crystal's extensive metaphysical site, however, that I understood how the Dog Star also gave us the "dog days of summer":

Ancient Egyptians called Sirius the "Dog Star" because pictograms of the head of their god Osiris resembled a dog. In Egypt, Sirius shines for most of the summer, and since it's such a bright star, the Egyptians believed the additional light it radiated was responsible for the summer heat. This isn't true, of course, but the phrase "the dog days of summer" originates from this belief.

The Greeks named the star Sirius, which meant, "scorching or burning".

Wishing you one sizzling New Year, lightworkers...

9-1-1 Deja Vu? Or an Opportunity for Global Growth?

Five days ago, the entire planet collaborated in the largest goodwill concerts ever: Live 8, a call to end African poverty. The concerts presaged the G8 Summit, a meeting of the world's eight top leaders in Scotland, taking place now.

So here's the backlash: terrorist bomb blasts in London's Tube (underground railway) this morning, with a death toll at 45 and rising, and hundreds more injured.

Yet today is also a Stargate, 7:7:7, a portal for personal and planetary ascension. Archangel Michael says that holding peace at the center without judgment of self or others is our greatest challenge now. Read the full channeling from Celia Fenn: The 7:7:7 Energies: Integrating the 12 Chakra Multi-Dimensional Self in order to Create the Beauty of New Earth

I am moved to reprint the broadcast I sent out on 9/11/01. I feel I was just the scribe for these words, which are from Spirit. May the vibrations of peace and promise they carry infuse London and the globe with higher Love.

This IS A Test!

Dear Ones,

We are six days from September 17th, a date heralded as being an opportunity for planetary initiation. An initiatory crisis, personal or global, catapults us out of our prior way of life in an instant, and demands a creative response born of trust in the process. Crisis actually means "turning point," as well as opportunity. So while this morning's air attacks on key U.S. "nerve centers" (the World Trade Center Towers and the Pentagon) surprise me only in terms of form, the actions themselves were, in a sense, predictable. It was only a matter of when. The time is NOW. The question is, how will we (the United States, and the world) respond?

I believe it was Einstein who said, you can not solve a problem with the same level of thinking that created it. From stunned pain, shock and anger, the instinctive response is retaliation. The first person I talked with today, upon hearing the news, spoke of hoping the President would threaten a nuclear attack. This would clearly be the end of life as we know it.

Later, as I listened to reports on radio, I was struck once again by how rapidly people always pull together in an emergency to help one another. Tragedy is a great leveler. We all do need to come together, not to fight a common enemy (which is within) but to begin creating the Global Community we've been inching towards for decades. It's a spiritual emergency, as we emerge from the cocoon of complacency, the old paradigm, into a courageous new world.

We must now choose to go beyond the old, reptilian, limbic brain (the same impulse that drives materialism, separation, self-interest, and misuse of power) into the higher realms of consciousness, where love, wisdom and power are synthesized into service. This is a test of the highest order. It's not about who's at fault, who orchestrated the attacks, or whether we should now place sanctions against the Middle East or other groups. It's about recognizing this attack for what it is: a colossal wake-up call.

This event is a volcanic eruption, and in hindsight, the rumblings many of us have been experiencing the past few weeks presaged it. Several players on the path have been sharing stories of total strangers (as well as of acquaintances and friends) suddenly, savagely and inexplicably dumping truckloads of mental trash on them. Everyone has been feeling "the quickening" of these end times, but, since we're at different stages in our growth, those who have no context for what they're experiencing also don't know what to do with these volatile energies. The anger's been leaking out, and finally, here's the explosion.

It is, in a very real sense, a planetary birth process. Something old has to die in order for the new to emerge. Please understand, I am not in the least condoning the tremendous loss of lives or the tragedy itself, yet I do feel that some major catastrophe to serve as a worldwide summons to awareness was cued to occur. It also took place on a Tuesday, which correlates astrologically with Mars, the God of war. We are all learning how to transform the war within ourselves into spiritual warriorhood.

It is interesting that the attack on the Pentagon made it impossible for U.S. officials to meet in the Department of Defense, the War Room. Our old defenses have been dismantled, big time and instantly.

Consider, too, that the Pentagon is a five-sided structure. There's a lot of power in five, which configures a star. The number five, as the center of the Native American medicine wheel, signifies the place of transformational possibilities. Five symbolizes access to the Spirit world in the Mayan tradition. It is a unifying element in Tibetan culture. The Greeks called the fifth element quinta essentia, the pure and concentrated essence, or invisible connector that allows earth, fire, water and air to communicate. Five is, cross-culturally, a centering and balancing element. Think of the alchemical phoenix that could arise from this apparent tragedy...

The 13th century Sufi mystic Rumi wrote, "Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and right doing, there's a field. I'll meet you there." This is the field of higher mind, of creative possibility, of the One Love. The moment is now. This is a call to conscious unity. Sisters and Brothers of the Light, please join me.

May this Invocation, sent out from World Goodwill in New York City to commemorate World Invocation Day, June 5, 2001, inspire and support you now. Many blessings and much love to you all, Amara.


The Great Invocation

From the point of Light within the mind of God
Let Light stream forth into human minds.
Let Light descend on Earth.

From the point of Love within the Heart of God
Let love stream forth into human hearts.
May the Coming One return to Earth.

From the center where the Will of God is known
Let purpose guide all little human wills—
The purpose which the Masters know and serve.

From the center which we call the human race
Let the Plan of Love and Light work out
And may it seal the door where evil dwells.

Let Light and Love and Power restore the Plan on Earth.

The 51% Solution

I've been struggling with some internal demons lately, feeling a huge disparity between the woman I am in cyberspace and how I come across in 3-D. Some days it takes tremendous effort to continue plodding forward as a spiritual servant.

So it was a relief and a remedy to receive Patricia Cota-Robles' latest missive, reminding us that we need only attain a "critical mass" of 51% in order to empower a shift in consciousness. She says,

"When empowering a vision or thoughtform, the moment 51 percent of our energy, vibration and consciousness is in alignment with our vision, it reaches critical mass, and nothing can stop it from manifesting. The problem is that we never know just when we are going to reach that magical moment of critical mass. There are often no outer-world signs, and it may even look as if we are very far away from that instant of transformation.

"That is when we usually feel our efforts are failing, and we give up. Sometimes we may be just a breath away from reaching critical mass, but we don't realize that, so we get discouraged and stop working to reach our goals. Then we end up never manifesting our visions.

"In very practical terms, critical mass means that when we are striving to create prosperity in our lives, the moment our thoughts, words, actions and feelings are vibrating with 51 percent prosperity consciousness instead of poverty consciousness, our life circumstances will shift, and we will begin to experience prosperity. The moment 51 percent of our energy is aligned with self-esteem and love, we will magnetize positive relationships into our lives. The moment 51 percent of our energy is aligned with peace, harmony and balance, we will manifest those Divine Qualities tangibly in our life experiences."

So keep on keepin' on, magnificent co-creators! And when you need a supportive shoulder, please drop me a line: amara@liveyourlight.com. You can also subscribe to my monthly newsletter, What Shines.
