Edgar Cayce

Shesat through Norma Gentile

So often in New Age circles, we speak of illness as “dis-ease.” It is true that there is usually a sense of discomfort in illness. It is not always in the exact location where physical disease may eventually manifest, but it may instead be felt as discomfort or imbalance in the lifestyle or emotions. Very often the physical body registers discomfort at a subtle level. This happens long before the disease has manifested in the body. The physical body registers sensations of what is going on all around us kinesthetically, two, three, four, five or six feet away from us. Often times when something begins to register as illness or noticeable discomfort, we look at the body itself. We forget to look outside of the body, where it is probably coming from – the subtle energy field two feet, three feet or more outside of the physical body.

In these surrounding spaces, we intersect with other people. Our energies intersect with those groups of people we have agreements with, such as our biological family, those who live in our neighborhood or city, coworkers and people we know from the school we attend or the sport we participate in. Most people have easily a dozen primary agreements between themselves and a group of people in their life.

These soul-level agreements are typically unconscious. But sometimes, particularly in groups we meet with daily, such as work partners, a group will bring to consciousness an unconscious agreement that does not serve the group well. For example, if an employer has allowed someone at work to behave poorly towards other employees, there will be pressure upon the unconscious agreement among the employees that allows this behavior. Either the agreement will be brought into consciousness and addressed, or the one who brings it into consciousness might be fired. The outcome depends on the agreement and soul’s journey of all those involved. It is not about one side being right and another wrong. It is about setting up situations that our soul desire can learn from.

We can see this play out on a national level as well. All those in form in Canada manifest a certain quality of energy. Those in form in the United States have a different quality of energy. People residing in these countries have agreements to resonate or tune their bodies to some portion of the energetic signature there. There are also agreements between these two larger soul groups as to how these energies will interact – or may interact – in the near future. Each person’s soul has an agreement with their own national consciousness and their soul has chosen a quality of energy that reflects its agreement with that larger national consciousness. Therefore, whether they live in Canada or the United States or China, each person’s physical body resonates with some aspect or national consciousness and each person affects that consciousness.

Generating Stillness

By simply being in a human body, you carry an agreement about the quality of energy that you will manifest. As long as you are in that body, the quality of energy that you have agreed to bring is present. The quality of energy resonated out and is perceptible to everyone. When you take time to sit in stillness and do nothing, you have the opportunity to turn within and find the vibration that your soul has agreed to bring into the Earth plane on behalf of humanity. In many cultures, this concept of simply being and allowing your presence to radiate out is not spoken of or thought about. Yet it is the most powerful way to be a resonant factor that has an influence upon events in the world. Take, for example, the rising use of adrenaline in your society. In the last twenty-five years you have embraced a lack of sleep into your culture and the addition of caffeine into your diets. Coffee and chocolate are ubiquitous. There is nothing wrong with it; it is a direction that has been chosen. But as a result, fewer people possess the ability to sit and feel the subtle energies. Ironically, just as the awareness of Spirit and healing energies has increased, you have also increased your intake of substances, that, when used beyond moderation, decrease your power to access to these same energies.

Is this not a bit funny? Caffeine allows you to purposely work in a linear fashion. Spirit works in more of an upward spiral. As you have greater access to the energetic tides of Spirit, the rise of consumption of caffeine continues. And even while you feel the impulse of honor the spiral creation of Spirit, your over consumption indicates a choice to create a linear fashion. Perhaps this is a last minutes rush to function outside of your connection to Spirit. However, I see that those things built in a purely linear fashion will not stand. They will not last.

Allow yourself to wonder. What is it that you have done in this linear fashion? What is it that you have simply pushed through, using your own will, rather than listening you how Spirit wanted to co-create with you? When we allow ourselves that quiet place to simply sit and listen to Spirit, what we manifest appears to take a little longer to complete, but the result is permanent.

Linear Creation Versus the Spiral Path of Spirit.

As more and more people within the Earth have embraced a linear way of creating, they have also embraced the idea that they can utilize their own personal energies to bring forth what they desire. This type of linear manifestation has led to rise in “trouble waters.” Spirit has to navigate these troubled waters, and in doing so there is not always an easy flow in its creation process with others. Any time the flow of creation is troubled by anyone manifesting in a linear fashion, it makes it just a little harder for us to easily hear what Spirit is suggesting as our next step. We become so accustomed to the troubled waters around us and to the constant subtle static in our bodies.

Continuing to force the body into linear behavior that is simply not in alignment with the soul and spirit eventually brings much tiredness and fatigue into the physical form, depleting the adrenals and kidneys. Because we are preoccupied with the success or failure of our other doings, we may miss the fact that our inner quiet is no longer really quiet. And it is this constant static that block our ability to heard deeper levels of what Spirit wants to give us naturally and easily. This block continues until we choose - - or we are forced – to take action that releases our insistence on moving linearly, we allow Spirit to move us along with it its own spiral path.

My guides remind me that peace is the result of inner stillness, connection to Spirit and knowing oneself. When we spend time being who we truly are, we generate a quality of stillness that makes peaceful actions more appealing to us than violence. Our unique quality of stillness resonates through our shared human consciousness and through that living quantum space within the atom of all form.

Allowing Spirit to Flow Into Religious Conflict

Many religions have arisen within the Middle East. Over and over, each of these religions has veered slightly from its original intent. Whether it was to help manifest cleaner bodies (Judaism), or whether it was to help to safeguard the integrity of the divine feminine (Islam), with linear creation there has been a misconstruing of the various religions. As we look now upon the Middle East, we see that something different might arise. Yet this one is one of the principle power points of the Earth. Eventually, something will resolve. The creative stroke of your own artistry and your ability to sit steady presence of Spirit.

Being reactive means you are not within the scope of Spirit. As you sit quietly and see the entire reaction-taking place now upon the Earth, being still within the body center, that stillness within you is then offered to whatever you behold. Each moment, each issue, each obstacle as you behold it, can no longer stand in the way of the flow of the creative waters.

Stillness Brings Remembrance

For many people, particularly women and men who are very sensitive to their feminine aspect, emotions play a huge part in how we create our reality. More and more, the outer reality that we observe can be affected by the inner reality that we experience. Your own stillness draws forth a remembrance of stillness from those involved in conflicts, wars and battles. It draws that remembrance of home through them, within the atoms of their bodies. Your stillness awakens the soul within their body, and reminds them of the communion they share with you as humans here upon the Earth.

In this manner we do not aim to force peace or to inflict an artificial straight line of resolution to conflict. Instead we offer that service of remembrance that each might be nourished and fed, simply because there are those who sit in silence and sit in alignment, which is true peace.

A Stillness Mediation

Even as you read these words, you may choose to allow your own stillness to move out to all those in your life. Let the still vibrations of who are move through you and therefore be audible to all those with who you have agreements in your neighborhood, your city, your country, and throughout the world. Do not inflict the stillness, but simply find it within your body, and so offer it as remembrance.

Know that as you listen in silence, what is truly your soul’s journey is dawn out from within you. As you meditate, know that your next step might be to the side rather than directly in front, following the spiral path of Spirit. Our blessings upon each of you.

Norma: I believe that singing, chanting, toning, prayer and healing are the same. We are creative beings, responsible for our bodies, emotions, thoughts and minds. What we give attention to – we give energy to. By connecting consciously and intestinally using sound, we discover ourselves as co-creators.

The Mother Earth has Her own Wheels… Her cycles. Some of them last so long that no human ever sees all of one cycle. She is always changing Herself. Sometimes, she added, “Mother Earth decides to change many things at once. She pushes up mountains, or makes mountains flat. Rivers disappear, prairies become lakes - everything changes.

We walk in two worlds - the outer and the inner world, the seens and the unseen – and they are in a constant state of evolution. This basic tenant of shamanism, that ancient, earth-tied belief system, is pervading our consciousness in these times of “walking between the worlds.” What we behold and regard is beholding us. The process of seeking experience and knowledge is actually becoming us, and we cannot separate ourselves from what we see and participate in. We are cogs in the wheel of tremendous, unprecedented change.

There is a physical and spiritual aspect to all things on Earth, even thought forms. All reality is based on polarity that is the male and female energies that circulate to create all life. As we learn to abide and walk peacefully through everyday life, we learn to walk within ourselves and awaken the inner landscape, and every day that we awaken, we have the choice to blend with the harmonies of nature or to swim against the tide. This is evolution and what the Hopi Elders meant in their message released in the early 1980s:

“ The river is flowing now very fast. Is is so great and swift that there are those who will be afraid. They will try to hold on to the shore.”

“The river is always the river because she knows how to change.” The patriarchal world view of clinging to outmoded beliefs and fundamentalism is yielding to an open minded view that perhaps that Earth Mother knows more than we do. She is much more complicated than our scientists and politicians can even fathom, and if we could learn to just stop and listen, as indigenous peoples have done for centuries, then we would understand not to fight the river of Earth’s paths, seasons and cycles of renewal. She will seek balance at any cost and has always communicated to those with eyes to see and ears to hear.

Wheels of Remembrance

When a human embryo forms, it grows from the heart outwards, drawing the heart back into itself as it develops into a fetus.

In this way, everything contains a heartbeat, like a star at its center that emanates in circular wavelengths outward and then back in again. It is a perfectly balanced and symbiotic system that absorbs energy patterns from orbiting spheres and the redistributes them back into the universe. Because we walk in two worlds, we are starting to realize that what we behold and regard is beholding us. As we gaze toward the winter sun or visualize the stellium at the heart of our galaxy, we are regarding our nativity and gazing at ourselves.

This is the same principle at work within the central fire councils of the Iroquois, passed down through some forty to fifty generations. The fires of their matrilineal tribes were circled by native people of both sexes and all ages. No one was considered less than anyone else, and everyone had his or her say in prophecy, healing and ceremony. Even those who we would consider to have mental illnesses were regarded for their insight. They gave to the fire their offerings, prayers and sacred rhythms. The fire gave them heat and spoke vision to their hearts, which assured their survival. This is where the lesson of preparing for the next seven generations came from; the fire wisdom taught them that what we do today reaches both our ancestors and our children.

The feminine understanding of the circular movement of time and space permeates shamanistic understanding as it has for, perhaps, hundreds of thousands of years. What began as a spark or dream in the heart of the Creator became the heartbeat of creation and the created world became the heartbeat of creation, and the created world blossomed like a flower. She poured herself into oceans upon planets and rivers amidst the stars. She stirred the light like embers to glow in dark places where the desire of life has never been felt before. Then when the light had tired and the need for dreaming outweighed the need for growth, she gathered the spirits of her children close to her and inside of themselves like seeds to weave a new journey through distant winds.

This is the greatest love story – the story of Father/Mother God and how worlds blow in and out of mythological grasp, carrying the embryonic seed of each preceding reality to a new place in the Sun. Memory circulates eternally; nothing is ever lost or wasted, and everything is connected to everything and on its way to becoming a part of everything else and always.

Tilting on the Wheel of Time

The evidence of life born and carried from love is found in circular archeology and artifacts; “wheels” that reveal matriarchal spiritual teaching such as campfires, peace pipes, baskets, rock and stone m monuments, Meso-American, Egyptian and Celtic calendars and so on. Time, itself is a circle. Some wheels of light in distant galaxies that we gaze at through the Hubble telescope are wheels of life that have long vanished, similar to the spiral petroglyphs carved on Anasazi rock face throughout the Southwest. And what we look at, digitally, on our watches is actually based on the Earth’s movement around the Sun.

So time is a wheel and implies a measurement of distance and travel, but that travel repeats itself in ever increasing, mathematical progressions. The fact that the long-count Mayan calendar is based on a date some 13,000 years ago tell us that we are approaching another monumental time in Earth’s history. We are approaching a monumental time, yes, in our Earth’s journey around the Sun and the Sun’s journey around our mother galaxy, but even with known cycles of time travel through space, this is a hard concept to grasp. Time is a spiral – it grows and develops – and even with all the artifacts, tradition and teachings that we know as the end of the Mayan calendar December 21 2012, the truth is that we have never been there before and will have to rely on our instincts and trust in the cycles of Earth mother to guide us.

There is intelligence in the cycles of the Earth Mother that only a few regard; it is being lifted to consciousness during the “end of time,” as the Maya refer to the present days. The tilt of the Earth that affects our seasons has a life of its own. The axis of the Earth has a wobble, much like a spinning top slowing down The slow rotation is referred to as the procession of the equinoxes and has to do with the drifting of the equinoctial sun backwards through he zodiac over thousands of years. For example, the Sun will be rising on March 21 of 2010 at the spring equinox is grazing the last degrees of the constellation of Aquarius. Approximately 2,000 years ago that same rising Sun grazed the waning degrees of Pisces. Hence the “precession” of the Piscean Age to that of Aquarius.

The Scales Tip

We are slowly waking to the realization that the rising equinoctial Sun carries ancient memory and consciousness of the civilization of Atlantis that came to closure some 26.000 years ago. This too, was a time of Aquarian sun, and the Earth has come full circle in its memory of a civilization that gave birth to our current indigenous tribes. The consciousness of that historic society now pervades our consciousness, and the same perils of life imbalanced by computers, high technology and scientific probing now challenge our concept of progress.

We can make the same mistakes and overstep our human desire for domination over nature, or will we heed the warning of our native people and seek balance between our heads and hearts? The answer is, and always has been, flowing quietly in the peaceful waters of our sacred land. That is where we were first stirred to life in the womb of our Earth Mother, and with or without us; she will keep the sacred balance.

We are approaching a time of enlightenment, a time of remembrance and a time for allowance of conscious change as our equinoctial Sun inclines ever more towards the center of the galaxy. The scales tip between darkness and light on the winter Solstice 2012 when the portal between heaven and earth floods our hearts and minds with the light of a thousand winter suns.

Will you join us in welcoming the unseen worlds to our earthly realm? With all this entails the appearance of the masters, the angels and the nature people, the release of the spirits of our ancestors trapped in the Earth due to war, climate and catastrophe and the reuniting of ourselves with our progenitors, the space brethren? Some tribes may be preparing to walk into a new dimension as all of creation takes a quantum leap. Some of us may choose to cross over to the spirit world without experiencing physical death. You can feel it, can’t you? Our world is stirring, like mist surrounding a mountain lake. We walk in two worlds with a river in between them and our hearts are the bridge.

Keeping The Sacred Rhythm

Tsunami, volcanic, earth vibrations and earthquake predictions will become commonplace, and we will all start to perceive these events prior to their likelihood, like native people and animals do. Sensations of suspended time will increase. These are kickbacks from the times of Atlantis when we could suspend time and space at will for the purpose of healing. Many new healers will emerge at this time that remembers the art of suspended state of healing trance. Remember to concentrate on breathing deeply from the solar plexus, which will always bring you back to the present moment. These are crossover episodes, stepping in and out of the fabric of reality through rifts in the fabric of the space-time continuum.

Sensitive people may see blurred energy in the shift between the worlds, as in a blurred photograph. Don’t worry, you are not crazy and you are not alone. You can tell people you are just magnetically challenged. The key to everything is to try to keep in sacred rhythm; communication and relationship to the Earth. These who do not regard her voice or do not choose to live in moderation will risk losing their sanity.

We will start to remember unconscious conditions from past lives, including remembrance of past life trauma. This is part of the Aquarian influence on our psyche that begins to free us of everything that we no longer need. Past life guilt, shame and self-denial can begin to fall away as we walk into the light of a new reality. That which we no longer need can be replaced with self-love, confidence and renewed abilities. This is the beginning of shedding earthy karma that will liberate us to our true life’s purpose. Yes, it is possible to actually get off the wheel of karma and to change your imprint, so to speak, or the astrological map that you came with. It is all part of the search for inner meaning that begins with self-forgiveness. Unresolved trauma will be dealt with in dreams and dissipated with the light of every new day. Possibilities to heal old wounds and lionesses abound.

A Time for Allowance

Those who practice the art of conscious dreaming will experience unlimited opportunities and abundance in their lives and will help to teach others to do the same. This is a time for allowance. We are opening up to the realization that whatever we can visualize for the greater good is tantamount to materialization. The object is not to underestimate the creative powers of the human heart and to use the power of love that is all around us. Allow yourself time out to dream, and dream big! Look for repetition and synchronicity, especially in dreams. Messages from the natural world will normally repeat three times is important. Become alert to your natural surroundings and the elements.

The more conscious we become, the more we will open up to that which we do not know. Super-consciousness is the door to true intelligence and the realization that we don’t know what we don’t know. That is to say, our leading astrophysicists don’t even know what questions to ask about the universe as her secrets unfold at an alarming rate. This is a humbling experience and necessary to keep our minds curious and childlike. It is as simple as that, so expect the unexpected.

Everything we do comes full circle. It is not for us to change the Earth or alter the processes of nature that we don’t understand. It is not our right to violate the rights of any living creature or to deny others a peaceful, fulfilling life. It is not for us to perpetuate war or genocide on other people or to subjugate those that we feel is less valuable or entitled than ourselves. When we do this, we only do it to ourselves. We must each sit alone in the darkness to weigh our own richness and self-worth. But don’t believe a word I say’ search and come to know it for yourself.

As I finish this column I am reminded of the words of John Denver who wrote the following words:

Now his life is full of wonder, but his heart still knows some fear

Of a simple thing he cannot comprehend

Why they try to tear the mountains down to being a couple more

More people, more scars upon the land

And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high

I’ve seen it rainin fire in the sky

I know he’be a poorer man

If he never saw an eagle fly

Rocky Mountain high

It’s a Colorado Rocky mountain high

I’ve seen rainin fire in the sky

Friends around the campfire and everybody high

Rocky Mountain High, Colorado.

John left the earthy world to begin a greater journey October 12. 1997.
