Dear Ones,

I have been having trouble with electronics lately … computer and mouse acting erratically or not at all, phone battery giving out after about 10 minutes of use. A friend said it might be the current Mercury retrograde. My alternate theory is the grand Incoming Light we have been experiencing lately, which causes fluctuations in the bodily electromagnetic field as distortions in our body of light are transformed to pure light. Be the cause as it may …

Someone suggested black tourmaline as a way to transmute dense lower energies to higher energies. I got a black tourmaline stone, which I used to cleanse my heart energy this morning whenever the computer started to jam. To my great relief, it worked for me.

I have read that, after the stone absorbs negative energy, it can be cleared of this energy by immersion in crystal salt or in moonlight. To this I would add it can be exposed to the dawn or setting sun for an hour (but not, I have heard, to the stronger Sun energy of the rest of the day.) I have heard there are other ways to clear stones too …

I have ordered some black tourmaline by the pound from Amazon.com … www.amazon.com …  today. Found a description, which I like very much …

Link: “Good Stone: Introduction to Meaning and Uses of Black Tourmaline,” by Susanna Galanis, in “Susanna Galanis Classical Education – Refine Your Spirit,” 3 September 2013 … https://susannagalanis1.wordpress.com/tag/black-tourmaline/ ..

When I read the web page, these interesting facts, among others, came to light …

  • Tourmaline is called the Electric Stone, because it carries a weak electric charge when heated or under pressure.
  • It looks to me like tourmaline is recommended to relieve the health effects of artificial electromagnetic fields.
  • As well, black tourmaline is recommended for mental and emotional stability.

In love, light and joy

Dear Ones,

I am still in semi-retirement from blog work, but just thought I would pop in with a quick word about what is up in my neighborhood …

TEMPORARY ALLIANCE OF CITIES OF LIGHT

I am trying a temporary alliance of cities of Light to bolster the local energy grid as needed. Of course, all Souls must agree, and any may detach at any time. Just so much fun!

CRYSTAL GRIDS TO CLEAR DENSE ENERGIES FROM EARTH

Check out this intriguing video …

Video: “Adam the Crystal Grid Maker – Web Grid, Removing Darkness,” by Daniella Garcia, 20 June 2013 … https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IK68KIgAHkk&feature=youtu.be ..

I note that on my viewing it had been seen by 172,000 people, and looks like it may be sponsored by a spiritual TV network! …

I found out about the above-mentioned video from Bill Ballard, of Pearls2U … https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCe5SWADvxgHKQgdJ-wqrWzA  …

On Avoiding Battery Drain and Electronics Flutter

The above-mentioned video also has a little in it about how crystal grids absorb battery energy and electronic energy, and how it is therefore important to avoid to stay away from electronics while doing crystal grid work.

Solar Events, Batteries, and Electronics

Note that the Light of our Sun has crystal qualities; thus when solar events occur on Earth, it is best to stay away from batteries and electronics, to avoid battery drain and electronics flutter.

In love, light and joy

Dear Ones,

This video is about ways to harmonize the vital body will with that of the Divine … in other words, to divinize the vital body.

It is a codicil to this blog: Link: “Vital Body Will and Personal Integrity,” by Alice B. Clagett, filmed on 1 September 2013; published on 2 September 2013; transcribed on 24 July 2018 … https://wp.me/p2Rkym-6Fj .. After the video are an Outline, and an edited Summary …

VIDEO BY ALICE

OUTLINE OF THE VIDEO

  • Be aware of the vital body’s will.
  • Traditional and nontraditional methods of uniting the vital body’s will to that of the Divine
    • Bhakti yoga, as practiced in India, to worship the Divine as beloved; for instance, a man might worship the Divine in female form, and a woman might worship the Divine in male form.
    • In the Christian tradition, celibate men sometimes venerate the Virgin Mary … This is the Marian tradition. Nuns sometimes worship Christ as their noncorporeal spouse.
    • In India, there is the worship of shiva lingam … which is a way of respecting the vast creative power of the second chakra as Divine. This is a good idea, I feel, as the idea of sexuality has been so degraded in Western society. It’s good to realize that the chakra which holds sexuality in a social context also holds vast Creativity. One way to do this is to worship the shiva lingam. For instance, a stone can be placed on one’s altar, or a poster hung up with a shiva lingam on it. This is also respectful to the Earth.
    • Then there is White Tantric Yoga, in the Indian tradition. Although this is not a sexual practice, it does take advantage of the attraction between men and women. Through chanting sacred chants, it raises that attraction to a sacred level.
    • There is also Red Tantric Yoga, but I advise against this as dangerous. This is because the power of possessiveness of the second chakra is just too strong for most people. Hence all kinds of negative emotions, such as jealousy and anger, come into play.
    • I do recommend walking in nature and chanting at the same time. This is good exercise, the vital body loves it, and the use of the chant brings in the Divine.
    • This merging of the vital body and sacred chant could take place in any physical activity … such as cooking.
    • Eating might be thought of as communion, in the Christian tradition, if practiced with prayerful devotion.
    • Saying a little prayer right before and right after sleeping, will divinize the transition of awareness. That then divinizes sleep, something very important to the vital body.
    • So the general instruction is:
      • Listen to the vital body.
      • Do something that both you and the vital body can agree upon.
      • And bring in the Divine, either through a visualization, or through a chant.

SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO

This video is a codicil to this blog: Link: “Vital Body Will and Personal Integrity,” by Alice B. Clagett, transcribed 24 July 2018;  published on 2 September 2013 … https://wp.me/p2Rkym-6Fj ..

On Uniting the Vital Body Will with That of the Divine

I got to thinking about what methods we could use to unite the vital body will with the Will of the Divine, because that might be really important, coming up very important.

Aside from the idea of simply being aware, the first thing to do is to be aware of the vital body’s will, right? … What it wants. But we have already talked about that.

So then I got to thinking of traditional and nontraditional methods of uniting the vast creative force of the vital body with the Divine. And I came up with a few to consider, and no doubt you will come up with others. Here is my little, short list …

Bhakti Yoga, as practiced in India, to worship the Divine as Beloved. So if you are a man, you would worship the Divine as the Beloved Woman. And if you are a woman, you would worship the Divine as the Beloved Man.

And along those lines in the Christian tradition, sometimes celibate people … priests and nuns … will, in the case of men, focus on the Virgin Mary (that’s the Marian tradition) … and amongst nuns, lots of times they will worship Christ as their spouse. So that is the Christian way of approaching this Union, through Bhakti Yoga, that is so frequently used in India.

Shiva Lingam. And then, also from India, we have the worship of Shiva Lingam. And that is a way of respecting the vast, creative power of the second chakra as Divine. And I think it is a very good idea to find a stone, or get a stone, and put it on your altar … or maybe a poster, something like that.

The idea is, because the idea of sexuality has been so degraded in Western society, it is good to realize that that chakra which holds sexuality, in a social context, also holds vast creativity. And that one way to do it is to worship the Shiva Lingam. It is just a stone; you can put it on your altar. And it is great. It is also an act of respect for the Earth. Quartz is nice, because it has those crystals in it. But of course, there are all kinds.

White Tantric Yoga. So those are two, and then you have White Tantric Yoga, in the Indian tradition … which is not sexual, but it does take advantage of the attraction between men and women. And through chanting sacred chants, it raises this attraction to the sacred level.

Red Tantric Yoga. And let us see … I know there are more. [laughs] … You have Red Tantric, but I consider that to be a dangerous thing to do, because the power of possessiveness, right now, with the second chakra, is just too strong for most people. And all kinds of negative emotions come into play, like jealousy, and anger, and all kinds of things. Some people go for that, but I am thinking it is a ‘not right now’ kind of thing … or maybe even a ‘never’ kind of thing.

Chanting While Walking. And … let me think … Here is something along new lines: For a while we have been talking about walking in nature, and chanting a sacred chant at the same time. That is a good example. It is good exercise, the vital body loves it, and the use of the chant brings in the Divine.

And that precept could be used in any context where there is a vital body ‘like’ that you can agree with, mentally, you know? And you can bring in a sacred chant. Chanting is great, because it uses the physical body, and it expresses a Divine notion.

Chanting While Cooking, or Before Eating. So you could do chanting with almost any physical activity: You could associate it with cooking. You could think of eating as communion, in the Christian tradition.

Chanting Just Before and After Sleep. A good thing to do right before and after sleeping is a little prayer. And that divinizes sleep, something really necessary to the vital body.

And so, the notion is just: Listen to the vital body. Do something that both you and the vital body can agree upon. And bring in the Divine somehow. It could be a visualization; it could be a chant. I am trying to think of more things, but I cannot. But I bet you will! Talk to you later.

In love, light and joy

Crystal Energy . by Alice B. Clagett

Written and published on 18 May 2013; revised

Dear Ones,

For this week’s meditation I was concentrating on the deep inner heart, the hridaya, while walking round in a maze. Then at the end of the sitting meditation, I had a wonderful experience of Christed energy descending … a very solid energy of love all around me, coming from the sky, rooted firmly in the Earth. I guess, just one of the many new energies coming in …

Dream About Changing Crystal Shapes . by Alice B. Clagett

Written on 29 January 2013; published on 31 January 2018

Dear Ones,

Two nights ago I sat up suddenly in the middle of the night with an image of a square set on its side popping out of my heart, like this …

It does not show it in the picture, but what I saw was the electric blue outline of a square, with nothing inside it. Instantaneously, the image expanded into a double parallelogram, like this …

Intuition told me this vision had to do with my crystal essence. I noticed the second diamond shape was a little squashed, misshapen, and the thought came that this had to do with karmic miasmic distortion, as described on Judy Satori’s website. (1)

That got me to thinking about how crystals can change shape – for instance, Imoto’s snowflakes changed shape (2), depending on the emotion-thought at the moment of their conception. I looked up a little info on crystals.

The cube is a very basic form of crystal. One crystal configuration is called “face-centered cubic” (FCC) or “cubic close-packing” (3) – this is the third example in this image …

Image: “Simple cubic, body-centered cubic, body-centered cubic (cubic close-packing)” … https://files.mtstatic.com/site_4334/37822/0?Expires=1625838553&Signature=cIpM0i8t7Yp-m6vuDgh2jNBOUWK5yn8YTNkLwyFTqBIEsddN69kiBfkZVS4jRVLncH-3zgGyLsuIF6bCX~hGBQSKmx6NGbKC-3MEeihVT5dvpCe0m-KY8w5yHL06Uo9tLfYt7CQNfCPWSNcMzGkIxTFBBmjBkokknGOTpWC-tyc_&Key-Pair-Id=APKAJ5Y6AV4GI7A555NA ..

Here is another image of the same …

Image: “Face-Centered Cubic Crystal Structure,” original pngs by Daniel Mayer and DrBob, traced in Inkscape by User:Stanner, 2 March 2007, in English Wikipedia … https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_crystal_system#/media/File:Cubic-face-centered.svg … CC BY-SA 3.0

Interestingly, rock-salt … the crystal version of sodium chloride, that is, salt, such as exists in solution in our bodies … can be regarded as a FCC structure.

An FCC crystal can be regarded as a simple square. But when the square is turned on end, we can see a hexagonal structure hidden within it (3) … http://www.chem1.com/acad/webtext/states/state-images/cubic_close_packing.png ..

The hexagon is a little hard to visualize, so you may wish to peruse the section “The Cubic Close-Packed Structure” … http://www.chem1.com/acad/webtext/states/crystals-cubic.html ..

What I got from this is that a crystal might be considered to be one shape on cursory glance … a cube. But with a shift of Awareness, it might be considered to be something completely different … a hexagon. Yet, in essence, it remains the same thing. Only my Awareness changed.

Also, here is something interesting about voids in crystals …

“A face-centered cubic unit cell has eight tetrahedral voids located slightly towards the center from each corner of the unit cell, for a total of eight net tetrahedral voids. Additionally, there are twelve octahedral voids located at the center of edge of the unit cell as well as one octahedral hole in the very center, for a total of four net octahedral voids.” (4)

So a simple rock-salt crystal has many ‘voids’ in it. Humm….

In love, light and joy
