11 Rabbit (Star)

Doors within doors to be opened today.

Gorgeous image created by our friend Kookie Birjukov
for one of the projects Laurence and I were working on several years ago.

11 Rabbit is a Stargate kind of day. Maybe it’s not ET contact of the fourth kind for you today, but you might feel the fertility and light that is infusing the day. Where does it come from? It is your monadic essence and it is in resonance and at one with beings throughout the universe.

Today is a doorway to spiritual abundance and/or what might feel like a collapse of the light or euphoria into the black hole. The reflection of the radiating light is the toroidal flow back into the centre. Rabbits surge out of their burrows and radiate in all directions, then they all disappear underground.

The control and structure of yesterday’s Grasp (aka Deer or Hand) gives way to diffuse and fertile light, which is flowing in toroidal form. And yesterday, being Day 10 of the Obsidian Timewave, manifested as a frozen moment, a manifest form of energy, which today (as ever on an 11 Day) dissolves…

The challenge is how to integrate this radiant cosmic energy without getting scattered. The energy of today is beautiful and subtle, and yet out of resonance with limitation, containment or practical concerns.

Creativity and destruction are mirrors. The sense of impermanence of our highs is a clue to the dynamic nature of creation. The cycle of creativity includes the fallow moments, which then lead on to new inspiration.

Explosion and implosion in every moment…

A good day to give praise to and accept the blessings of life.

The holographic nature of reality is revealed in the understanding
that the basic unit of all life is a toroid.
It is a fractal reality, where the form can be found
on every scale of creation.
The toroid is not static; it curves in on itself and twists into the centre
with an energy that is known as a torsion field.
The torsion field generates the spiral pattern of all growth,
as in the Fibonacci sequence

Here are some interesting links to contemplate today:
The electromagnetic field generated by the heart is the most powerful rhythmic energy field produced by the body.’

10 Deer (Hand, Grasp)

Today is all about holding on. What does that mean to you today?

What do you need to hold on to?


Composite created by Carey

Each moment has the potential to grip us; each period of our life is a manifestation of our multiplicity. Each moment offers us the chance to feel totally free and empty – and the idea of total freedom is transcendental. We are here to engage, but with some transcendence.

Quite often in our lives we are desiring and wanting – this is an existential fact of engaging with life, rather than an error. Most people, most of the time, want more – more freedom, sex, love, romance, excitement, adventure, freedom again, money, self-expression, recognition, privacy, or at least some of those. This is not wrong, it is just an existential fact.

Today, hold the moment lightly, knowing all is well and, yes, you really do want to live life more freely and yet more magnificently.

Wanting creates attachment, so we all have this paradox within us – wanting freedom and yet wanting more in life. The mind cannot handle the paradox, but somewhere in the heart and the psyche is the capability to create open structures or conduits; to create the space in which acceptance and vitality can flourish.

Are you gripped by Life? Are you gripped by the Divine Restlessness?

This is the Life Force – we cannot control it. So we might as well accept that we can be empty and happy in any day, yet during that same day feel an overwhelming sense of Divine Restlessness.

Today, hold on to something and yet allow your energy to flow through the centre.

A good day for controlling aspects of your life in a positive way.

9 Skull

Day 9 is always a day of realization and Skull brings the decisive acknowledgement of that which has to be cleared out.

You are a reflection of all that is, yet you have your own journey and your own being within the collective.


DNA strand, showing that even the most fundamental form of life
is continuously turning inside out (from Google Images)

Become clear about your boundaries, structures and axioms; release collective negativity (the lowest common denominator energy) and set a basic intention to be an agent for change.

Intend to transform, as and when it is appropriate, and make clean breaks from cultural pressures and fear-based scripts.


Navigate the streams of impermanence to your advantage. All situations can be turned inside out, just as life is continuously turning inside out.


We found this beautiful image in a Google search and have used it
for some of our workshop notes
to illustrate the toroidal nature of the Earth's energy field
(which is the same for all living beings).
Unfortunately I have not been able to find the original artist to add a proper credit.
My thanks to whoever created this.

[On 9 Skull of 9 June 2016, Laurence wrote:]
‘My research continues on the timeline change we are in the midst of. The portal is opening to the archaic past, namely the global empire of Atlantis. We are moving into resonance with Atlantis, as evidence of its existence from all sciences (kept out of the mainstream narrative) is becoming overwhelmingly convincing.’
 
Looking for an image on Google to help illustrate the texture and energy of today,
I found this, for a Crystal Skull Evening Workshop,
to be held in Oswestry, UK, on 5 September 2018, which also talks about Atlantis


[Extra message from Laurence to contemplate on 9 Skull:]
Today you can see the outcome of future situations and events, based on how things are unfolding from this moment.

A SIGNIFICANT ZONE OF CHOICE IS UPON US NOW.

For the next few days, envisage a better world and do not comply with mainstream media suggestions... DO NOT COMPLY with mainstream visions for the environment or global change...

Real change can only be seeded from the autonomous free-thinking individual, free from the global agenda being pushed in your face.

The world has never been more abundant. All of our environmental problems and energy problems already have solutions; these solutions have just not been released, but eventually they will. The tide cannot be turned back.

The challenge is to clear out any negative energy present at this moment in your field. Clear out the dross of negative expectations so as to affect the outcome and future manifestation more positively now.

Remember the saying: ‘It doesn’t have to be like this.’

8 Serpent

 
Created by Carey, using ouroborus image from Google

Hold steady.

Bringing intelligence into form requires daily discipline. Our intentions, desires and goals come with the challenge of living them day by day, paying the price to be paid and sustaining them long after the excitement has worn off.

The impermanence of excitement leads us to novelty addiction and confusion about what we actually want, as well as an apathy regarding what we really want due to the effort and illusory nature of all form, as well as the dissatisfaction we sometimes feel about what we get.

All entities are responsible through universal decree for their own survival and flowering. Survival and the perpetual game of creating one’s life could be viewed as a monotony.

However, the enlightening truth is that life is a constant celebration.

Today, make the effort to emotionally commit to keeping your party rocking through accepting that you need what you need.


Keep your party rocking!

[Note from Carey: In Hong Kong, the exact time of this Full Moon was at 0420 this morning, with the total lunar eclipse most visible between 0330 and 0514. (See yesterday’s post for more details.

Interestingly, there was also a total lunar eclipse on 8 Serpent of 15 June 2011. This is what Laurence wrote then, for that eclipse, much of which is still relevant to us for today’s 8 Serpent eclipse:]

The Eclipse
The caveat is a question: Are you in your power... enough?

Do you feel connected to the vital energy in your body? The truth is we are always needing to step more into our true power, incrementally. So today you may recognize that you need to commit to living a life that feels more vital. This is emphasized by the Eclipse.

The eclipse today … brings a disruptive energy. It is urging us all to aspire to be more and to live life with a greater vision. It promises to throw a light on our own areas of discomfort, where we know we are not living fully.


Image from Google

The full effect of any eclipse materializes gradually over the following few months. So today if you feel really uncomfortable and restless – if you feel that your life is stuck in a rebound effect of reaction, distraction and superficial entertainment – then call upon your power to emerge more fully over the rest of this year. Make a deep commitment to stop chasing your tail; be prepared to jump off the hamster wheel. Allow your life to be led by the inner knowing that is in accord with your vital life force: Survive and Flourish.

Give yourself a few months, rather than trying to do it today, which just sets you up for failure.

The Eclipse energy will unfold over the next few months up to the Winter Solstice, normal patterns are meant to be disrupted.

Tomorrow, 9 Skull, you should wake up knowing what has to change in your life.

7 Lizard (Seed)

Full Moon and Total Lunar Eclipse: See the end of this post for exact time and details.
 

Laurence's painting, 'Consciousness and the Plasma Brain',
used horizontally as a background and overlaid with an image of the planets

A day of harmonic resonance with your Master Template, your essential Divine Intent, your Life Purpose.

Today offers you a reflection of the basic intelligence – or the divine matrix for life – throughout existence.

You can tune into an aspect of your life purpose (or a general sense of your soul intention) by observing the underlying gnosis you feel during the day. Trust the connections you see, for they represent this unique matrix; however, do not over-interpret the future unfoldment of how the seed will grow.
 

I felt it fitting to reproduce this page, from the handbook for our
Life Purpose workshops, for use in today's blog,
to help illustrate the texture and energy of 7 Lizard.
I have also added this page as a downloadable high-res PDF file
in Laurence's portal website, under the section entitled 'More'.
You are welcome to download this for your own personal use.

Enjoy the sense of harmony you feel with the inherent intelligence of life and, more specifically, with the ever-present original intent for your life.

Lizards can regenerate lost body parts as the template of their bodies are particularly powerful. You can similarly restore the template of your life today, to some degree. 



Image from Google

The space you created yesterday allows for the light of the seed or template for your life, encoded before incarnation, to shine through. The seed of your life can be seen in a general sense through what is reflected to you from dreams or from the external world.

The resonance with your template will create the urge to move beyond the white noise and the distractions that have moved your life away from the potential of the original implicit purpose you were born with.

Just be conscious of that fact. Do not get into frustration; just be in resonance with the ever-present seed for your life.

[Extra message from Laurence to contemplate on 7 Lizard/Seed:]
Once into the womb, the house, the inner sanctum that is a fractal of the universal mystery (yesterday being a Foredawn/House day), today the Seed of Light appears as if by magic, through a resonance with the intelligent plan of Life.


[Extra message from Laurence about eclipses and the Mayan Sacred Calendar]
-->
Eclipses interrupt and change the flow of energy.

The eclipse cycle creates integration between the incoming cosmic or galactic energy and the solar system energy that shapes our environment, as well as the constant galactic pulse of this Mayan Sacred Calendar. 

There are three eclipses every 520 days; every 52 years the Mayan Haab (their civil Solar Calendar of 365 days, divided into 18 months of 20 days each and one month of 5 days) synchronizes with the 260-day Sacred Calendar. Five times 52 equals 260; seven times 52 (52 weeks) equates to a solar year. 

The 260-day cycle has been called ‘the Galactic Constant’ and is harmonically and fractally involved with many other planetary cycles, as well as being a fractal of our galactic cycle (approximately 26,000 years).

By allowing yourself to acknowledge the standard Gregorian calendar, the moon cycle and the energy of the eclipses, you are effectively integrating the higher frequency of this Sacred Calendar with the consensual world. 

By following the frequency of the 260-day cycle, you are tuning in to the Earth’s relationship with the galactic. The cycle of the eclipses is the major bridge that allows you to download from the galactic potentiality into the body.
 


[Information from Carey about tonight's Total Lunar Eclipse]
Full Moon and Total Lunar Eclipse
Tonight, and into the small hours of tomorrow, is Full Moon (exact time: 2020 UTC, or 9.20pm British Summer Time). In Hong Kong, the exact time of the Full Moon is at 0420 tomorrow morning, 8 Serpent.

There is also a Total Lunar Eclipse, known as a ‘Blood Moon’ simply because when the Moon is completely eclipsed, it takes on a red or coppery hue.

A lunar eclipse happens when the Earth moves directly between the Sun and the Moon, so the Earth completely blocks out all direct sunlight to the Moon.
 

While the Moon is in total shadow, some light from the Sun passes through the Earth’s atmosphere and is bent toward the Moon. The only light that can be seen is thus refracted through the Earth's shadow, and this light looks red.

The eclipse will be visible in large parts of Australia, Asia, Africa, Europe, and South America. Here in HK (weather permitting), we can view the main part of the eclipse from 0330 to 0514 in the very early hours of Saturday morning, 28 July.

Since this particular eclipse will occur near apogee, it will be the longest total lunar eclipse in the 21st century, lasting approximately 103 minutes.

6 Foredawn (Dark House, In the House, Dark Night)

Processing, clearing and creating space. Today is a day of movement in the subconscious and unconscious.

Connect to your inner sanctum. The deepest part of your soul is a place of mystery that serves the purpose of nourishing you with a potent emptiness and privacy.


Wherever we were and whatever we were doing,
Laurence always took time in the early mornings to connect to his inner sanctum,
to delve into the mystery of his soul, to let go and to create space.
His daily practice of tai chi, yoga and shamanic journeying nourished him deeply
and thus allowed him to deeply nourish others.
Here is Laurence in Koh Samui, Thailand.

Today, allow the potentials to reorganize themselves.

The different expressions of the psyche – the multiplicity of needs, desires, complexes, wounds, frustrations and considerations – organically self-organize as you gradually let go of trying to control life, releasing the need to know.

This creates the space.

Be at peace.

[Extra message from Laurence to contemplate on 6 Foredawn:]
The vast expanse of universal consciousness creates firstly by separating self from self through the Word, the activating Spirit of the Cosmic Breath, which is the Wind character in the Mayan Sacred Calendar (yesterday was 5 Wind).


Wind Daykeeper glyph by LjL

The next step is to create an enclosure, a womb, the centre of the holy trinity. The womb is the 'House' Daykeeper character of today. It is the all-important place of safety for us – our home, our inner sanctum. It is a place of mystery that serves the purpose of nourishing us with a potent emptiness and privacy.

On 6 Foredawn of 26 September 2010,
Laurence decided he would like to spend some of his day outside
with his paints, brushes and some canvases, painting in the open air.
Here he is at our friend Annie's.

5 Wind

LjL communicating with his beloved daughter Oceana in 2008

You are a nexus of communication. Your ideas are shaped to a large degree by the ideas you receive from others. The ideals of independence are fairly illusory; however, you are unique in essence, at the core of your being.

A good day to connect to your own essential voice and inspiration. Receive inspiration from Source today and convey that to others. Be conscious of the fickleness of the mind and the instant impulse to be an automatic transmitter of the collective clichés that abound in the atmosphere.


From Google images. Thank you to whoever created this.

Ask intelligent questions, rather than rushing to deliver a pleasing answer.

5 Wind is a good day to investigate and penetrate the informational field in which you live. Cut to the core of situations by questioning assumptions.

4 Crocodile

Sustenance
All of life sustains itself. Wherever you look, in any direction and in any realm, you will see life in its myriad forms sustaining itself.

Enjoy sustenance today. Surrender to the need for food, basic exercise, rest, time with the family, or whatever you feel is calling you to sustain the matrix of life within which you exist.


'Human Foetus In The Womb',

What do you need to feel sustained in this day?

4 Crocodile is not about forward motion or future concerns, rather it is about being grounded in the essential nurturance of your life.

What is the essential nurturance you feel you need today?



Allow it to be, receive and give the essential food of life to your life and to the life all around you.

Focus on the frequency of nurturing, sustaining, security, comfort and being-ness.

3 Flower (Sun, Lord)

A day of light and energy vibrating. Feel the body and the world as a vibration of light. 

'Vibrations of Light', used with very kind permission
of our friend and fabulous photographer and videographer, Ewa Wilkinson.

The emotions of anticipation will arise – do not let the mind jump ahead to a conclusion, an absolute, or the need for an outcome. If you grasp the energy, restlessness and anxiety will arise; stay with the anticipation.

Different aspects of the psyche, normally compartmentalized or shut off from each other, are able to cross-pollinate today. It will most likely be subtle, but you will feel energized.

Feeling is a form of subtle matter; it is the material that is most commonly experienced and yet is considered to be merely subjective, due to the shield of the mind. Today, light will pass over and through different aspects of your psyche.



Heartfelt thanks to our friend Robert Burton for this beautiful photo

The opportunity of the day is that you can enjoy the feeling of potentiality.

Do not get fixated on negative potentials, but come into alignment with your vision and your aspirations for your life. Stay with the feeling of potentiality. Move into that space without grasping; just enjoy the feeling that reminds you that life is mutable and that you are a co-creator who can attract more benevolent abundance into your life.

Allow yourself to move into that energy space of benevolent abundance.

2 Storm

The pull of opposites today can be exhilarating as you move into unexpected zones and experiences.

Energy ricochets back and forth; we are confronted with our polarities.


Storm clouds, used with very kind permission of our friend David Ogg,
on Instagram here and on FB here

Today is about the constant existential movement between being in the eye of the storm, enjoying stillness, and being caught in the midst of the cyclone of necessity (especially all that is associated with money), novelty, engagement and relating.

The desire to truly break free from the constraints of yourself can make you feel you are being pulled apart and/or give you the space to find some unexpected inner freedom.

A good day to recognize how you have created your life as it is; how the mixing bowl of your psyche, filled with all the divergent needs and desires, has resulted in the reality you walk in.
 
What's in your psychic mixing bowl?
Thanks to the extremely talented photographer and friend, André Eichman.

To find freedom in this day, accept the situation and your own duality. You then have the opportunity to enjoy and appreciate the novelty and variety that life offers you.

Consciously create some contrast in your day. Deliberately embrace some contrasting activities.

The potential result of this day is a genuine sense of refreshment, whilst accepting the existential pull of opposites.

1 Obsidian

A new 13-day timewave begins today: the Obsidian (aka Obsidian Mirror, or Etznab) Timewave.

Detail from 'The Crystal Ball' by John William Waterhouse
(although I confess I have altered her crystal ball slightly,
so that it is now an Obsidian ball)

In this 13-day period, look at the shadow with a clear perception. When you look into the smoking mirror, keep looking through the clouds until you find the clear sky.

The world reflects ourselves back to us, revealing a semblance of the totality of our desires and inner feelings. This timewave will reveal the shadow of your life – and it is a challenge to accept that which you see.

However, the greatest challenge is to not see the fuzzy distortion of the shadow as the whole truth – it is just part of the truth. The light, the bright, the good and the beautiful are more powerful and more pertinent to life.


You are not your shadow, so do not identify with it. Accept the shadow of your relationships, your culture and your world as aspects, forces and elements that make up the entirety of your reality.

This amazing aerial photograph of shadows cast by camels walking through the desert
beautifully illustrates Laurence’s reminder that ‘You are not your shadow.’
The black ‘camels’ are in fact shadows, while the actual camels
are little more than slim blonde lines.
Taken by National Geographic photographer George Steinmetz in 2005.

Acceptance is Love. See the shadow, then look beyond it, because the shadow is also illusory from the perspective of unity consciousness.

The opportunity afforded in this timewave is to be brave enough to open the heart that bit wider, with intelligence.

Open, accept and increase your connection to the essential awesome nature of life.

13 Earthmover

Connect to the Source by LjL

How does one keep up with the ‘million things’ that are in your life, all changing, growing and demanding attention?

You connect to the Source, from where all things grow and evolve.

The still point within you is the place where you connect to Source. From here, you are more able to respond to the emerging energy that needs your attention now. Though this is easier said than done, you can access that energy and consciousness today.

A good day to connect to the expanding web of synchronous interconnections that springs outwards in all directions from the ubiquitous centre of ‘now’.

Your life is interconnected to all reality and you can see or feel the force of the energy that is expanding out in all directions, through 360 degrees. Potentially, this is omnidirectional through almost infinite realms.


360-degree image of Lamma Island,
with heartfelt thanks to Lamma Gung of Lamma.com.hk
for kind permission to use his artwork

The life force in your body is the evolutionary impulse as it exists within you; it is a manifestation of the radial power that drives the world around you. Allow your awareness to become still, let go of compulsions to control your life, then respond to the impulse that springs from the stillness.

The kundalini is the manifestation of the collective unconscious will, the will of the whole human species. This will or impulse of evolution has two drives:

First: Survival, which gives rise to security, control, or, in some cases, manic power compulsion to manipulate and enslave.

Second: Transformation, which gives rise to the desire for the new, the restless urge to move on and surrender to new experience, or the death wish, self-destruction or self-loathing.

It is our power; if we own it, we flourish. If we consciously own it, we flourish in accord with the interests of the whole human species and life on Earth.

Today offers the opportunity to ascend to a new level of empowerment, to some degree.

12 Vulture (Warrior, Owl, Turkey)


Chakras and their corresponding glands, by LjL

A good day to understand the truth you need to live by in order to survive, flourish and be centred in your power.

Today, you can see how to organize your life so that it is compatible with the fulfilment of your true needs.

Step into the quietness of your inner self and see that the tenacity required to live with strength is inherent within you.

The inherent intelligence of the life force, the power that holds life in existence, is a strong, still protector – feel the power of your personal truth.


Image from Google

The Owl and the Vulture sit upright. The key for the Warrior is the spine, where the two dancing snakes of the kundalini rise. To be a Warrior of the Heart and to speak a truth that serves your own abundance, as well as the vitality and benevolence of the world, is a rare almost unheard of consciousness in the public domain today. 

The Smiling Warrior by Jose Garcia.
Note the Quetzalcoatl headdress
that is consistent with all the Native American tribes

To be a true Warrior of the Heart requires the connection of the life force from the base chakra all the way up to the crown.

A silent Warrior of the Heart would be connected from base to heart, but not necessarily at the throat or beyond. A fearless martyr Warrior may well be connected at base and the heart, but not necessarily at the sacral, or second, chakra, the place of basic nourishment and the needs of the self.

Where is your energy disconnected? Where is it connected? Today is a good day to understand yourself in this way.

11 Eagle

Eagle is a spiritual talisman of compassion combined with the clarity of the Sacred Warrior. Eagle flies between Heaven and Earth, scanning for the appropriate small detail to focus upon, in order to nourish itself.

The Plumed (or Feathered) Serpent: Quetzalcoatl,
one of the great Gods of Ancient Mesoamerica, is a synthesis of serpent and bird.
The quetzal was a sacred bird with very beautiful feathers
that were used in elite and ritual costumes. Image from Google

Today, ask yourself: ‘What needs to be integrated into my life? What detail have I passed over that needs focusing upon? What is appropriate?’

Eagle tells us that the ecstasy of spiritual flight is to be combined with the pressing needs down in the theatre of the world. Allow yourself to feel the lightness of your heart, be elevated, then be open to the specific aspect of your life that requires attention. However, if you cannot find the connection between Heaven and Earth, do not worry – just walk through the door that opens.



Uncredited image from Google

Within the manifest world today, a sky door opens for you. Enjoy the freedom, then remember to look clearly at the subtle fluctuation in your daily flow, for this is both a requirement and an opportunity. Zoom in and expand the picture. Allow the fuzzy, seemingly random occurrence, the minor discordance, the unexpected meeting, the lateral event, the moment of inspiration, the small delight, the unusual energy or the spontaneous call to expand into view, so you can see with clarity the significance of this in your life and to your life.

Today, something small opens up into something larger than you first realized, promising more freedom by attending to it.
 

Image from Google

[Extra message from Laurence to contemplate on 11 Eagle:]
As kundalini energy rises, the brow chakra opens up, for it is here that the wings of the bird appear in the caduceus; where the soul takes flight into other dimensions of reality.

Today is not about the integration of the dual writhing serpents, but rather the arrival of the serpents at the gate. What opens up for you today will be fully integrated later.

Take flight consciously. Explore a new energy, but if you cannot yet see the connection to the world below, do not worry, just ask the question. Step into an elevated awareness, utilize the visionary gateway and wait for a sign.
