High Five!

The number 5 has long figured prominently in my life, beginning with growing up at 5 Romaine Court. In 1995, during my "dark night of the soul" journey, I received a Polarity bodywork session. At its conclusion, in a blissful state of heightened awareness in which I couldn't "feel" my body, I saw a door with the number "5" emblazoned on it. The door was tightly shut, and my Polarity therapist wisely suggested it was not yet time for me to open it.

As so often happens for me during this archetypal adventure I call "my life," what I assumed was about "me" was really a prescient call from out collective future. What follows is some fabulous "5" information from the brilliant near-death and Indigo children researcher P.M.H. Atwater. Unfortunately, her web pages do not have discrete links, so I can't link to this precise page, but here's the material (there's LOTS more!):

THE FIFTH WORLD – AN EXPLOSION OF FIVES

There can be no doubt that the Fifth World, predicted by revelators and prophets for thousands of years, is now here, and accelerating – moving into what is termed "ascension." Repeating "fives" are extraordinary. Most are discussed at length in the book (Beyond the Indigo Children: The New Children and the Coming of the Fifth World), but another, very important one was missed. I include it here – the fifth wave in communications – along with a brief overview. Here are the major fives. Be certain to read the book for in-depth descriptions:

Fifth World: polarities shift
Fifth Root Race: blue
Fifth Element: ether
Fifth Chakra: will power
Fifth Brain: the heart
Fifth Dimension: free from time/space states; intention rules
Fifth Ray: Venus (associated with mercy and Goddess Kuan Yin)
Fifth Communication Wave: personal computers
Five Senses: shift to higher modes, expand, enlarge
Five Types of Intelligence: kids excel in those that cannot be tested
Five: the number of the human family/the human species
Five<: the number of change and progress
14th Generation: Five, Millennials, the Shift Generation in the age of Shift

The five waves of communication in the human family:

1st wave: verbal communication, sign language
2nd wave: use of stele: inscriptions on markers, stones, pillars, flat surfaces/walls
3rd wave: the invention of papyrus: a paper-like material for writing on, scrolls, ancient documents
4th wave: printing from movable type: first book, the Gutenberg Bible
5th wave: personal computers: introduced in 1982, the very year the new children began to enter the earthplane en masse (the start of the Millennial Generation)

FIFTH BRAIN-WAVE FREQUENCY

Science showed us some time ago that there were four major frequencies of brain-wave function – beta, alpha, theta, delta. Recently, however, we learn that there are five. Thanks to a paper on Schumann Resonances (earth pulse) authored by Richard Alan Miller (DrRam@magick.net) and Iona Miller (iona_m@yahoo.com), we have this description of all five rhythms. For a more thorough and detailed version of the brain waves and for the article itself entitled Planetary Rhythms and Human Health, which is excellent, by the way, contact Dr. Miller directly.

Gamma Waves (25-60 Hertz)

– appear to relate to simultaneous processing of information from different brain areas, e.g., involving memory, learning abilities, integrated thoughts, or information-rich task processing. Gamma rhythms modulate perception and consciousness.

Beta Waves (12-25 Hertz)

– dominate our normal waking state of consciousness when attention is directed towards cognitive tasks and the outside world. Beta is a "fast" activity, present when we are alert or even anxious, or when engaged in problem solving, judgment, decision making, information processing, mental activity, and focus.

Alpha Waves (7-12 Hertz)

– are present during dreaming and light meditation when the eyes are closed. In Alpha, we begin to access the wealth of creativity that lies just below conscious awareness. It is the gateway to deeper states of consciousness. Aids overall mental coordination, calmness, alertness, inner awareness, mind/body integration and learning.

Theta Waves (4-7 Hertz)

– occur most often in sleep but are also dominant in the deepest states of meditation (body asleep/mind awake) and thought (gateway to learning, memory). Senses withdrawn from external world and focused on the mindscape. Theta is associated with mystery, an elusive and extraordinary realm we can explore (like a waking dream).

Delta Waves (0-4 Hertz)

– are the slowest but highest in amplitude. These waves are generated in deepest meditation and dreamless sleep. Suspends external existence and provides the most profound feelings of peace. Certain frequencies within Delta trigger the release of a growth hormone beneficial for healing and regeneration.

Those people engaged in dowsing who are also multi-sensory often register both high Beta (Gamma) and Delta rhythms simultaneously as if using their brain in a new way. I have noticed this "across the board" with the new children, which probably accounts for why it is so difficult to measure their intelligence using standard test procedures.
