Did you know that the basic structure of all reality is an atom? And, if you were to look inside this atom under an electron micro scope, you would find that 94.6% is empty space. The other 5% is physical reality. The 94.6%, is the spiritual and emotional nature of you. So, what becomes important? I choose the 94.6.
We are spiritual beings, and if we start looking at things from this perspective, we will begin to see clearly, because physical reality will never be more than 5%.
With this in mind, think about multi dimensional reality, or parallel universe, which is the multi verse theory. An example of this would be our cell phone. If I were to give you a cell phone, bury you in the ground, place a statute on top of you , and tell you at 7:00 PM, call this number to a bar on the other side of the planet and ask what the drink special is. Cell phones operate on micro waves that go right through you. They don't care about all the obstacles between you and the location of that bar. How many dimensions did the micro waves travel through to get the drink special? A DVD, or CD is an even better example, because it reads the plastic with light rays and the audio through color generating heat.
If you can imagine, your working with chemicals in a factory. So you wear these gloves, and for eight hours, your focus is on what you are doing with these gloves on. When your eight hours is up, you take off the gloves and go home. When you have the gloves on, your looking at the 5% physical reality. You take off the gloves and you are in the 94.6. We really live in heaven. We never left. We are only hear on a mission, and when we take off the gloves in a few hours, we're out of here.
Neat huh?
These are only a couple examples of the information I learned, {or shall I say remembered} from listening to a lecture by Dannion Brinkley, entitled, "The Changing Face of Time". You can find it on Google Videos.
Dannion Brinkley was struck by lightening in 1975, and was pronounced dead for 28 minutes. He came back to life with extraordinary gifts. He has been featured on Unsolved Mystery's ,and is the author of Saved by the Light and At Peace in the Light as well as his latest, co-authored by his wife, Kathryn, entitled, The Secrets of the Light: Spiritual Strategies to Empower Your Life…Here and in the Hereafter. Dannion’s first best selling book was made into a television motion picture by the Fox Network, in over 30 countries, since 1995. Currently, Kathryn and Dannion are working to develop a movie based on their book, The Secrets of the Light and the opening of the first Brinkley Light Center.
I will continue to write about his topics. His message of light and love, is invaluable as we near the year 2012 .
Check it out, you will be glad you did.

Sacred Desert
I've lived in the Sonora Desert all of my life. It was a play ground for my sisters, my brother, and me. With a few rocks, saguaro ribs, and a little imagination, we would entertain our selves all day. We hiked every inch of the desert for miles, rode horses, and in my brother's case, enjoyed catching rattle snakes in jars. The desert was all we knew, or so we thought.
For the next fifteen years, the desert was to be our school, and experience was our teacher. However, like most kids, I didn't appreciate this precious gift until I was much older.
In the desert, everything is a lesson that will challenge your abilities. It will test you, and force you to look deep with in yourself to find strength and endurance. You learn quickly to pay attention to where you are, and what is going on around you. It demands your respect to survive, as it's a dangerous place, and has no patience for ignorance.
It's a sacred place, and the energy is almost mystical. If you stay still and listen, you will begin to hear the spirit speak to you. This can come in many ways.
There is the obvious, if you take things for granted. The desert doesn't care about ego, and it will make a believer out of you. Animals, scorpions, and venomous snakes blend into the back round and you won't see them unless they want you to. Hopefully, they give you a warning by allowing you to see them.
There are violent lightening storms and flash floods that can be four feet deep, and they appear out of nowhere.
The temperatures in the desert are extreme. It's common to see high temperatures averaging 110 degrees during the day, and at sunset, they may drop 40 degrees. Every year, people that are not prepared are hospitalized from heat strokes.
The Hopi Indians say that man has forgotten the instructions on how to live in the desert. They believe that there is spirit in all things created and that we are all one. The land asks that you take only what you need. There are certain herbs that grow under trees that provide medicines for animals and people. These are communities in nature. Man has lost respect, and allowed greed to rule him. He cuts all the trees, there for, the herbs don't grow and there is no medicine. This is one example that is causing a serious imbalance in nature. The land reacts to this. Harmony must be restored if we are to survive.
Forty years have passed, and I still live in the desert. I now have an appreciation for this magical place. Life is extreme in the desert, and so is spirit and beauty.
The most magnificent burst of reds, oranges, yellows and purple fill the entire western sky at sunset. You experience the splendor of God's creation. The colorful formations of the clouds, will leave you memorized by their messages of healing energies.
The night sky is equally inspiring. The stars are so bright, and so many of them. They offer you a glimpse into their dimension and you experience a heightened awareness that will change your perception of how you see things. There is no other place like it.
To sit on a rock, on the side of a mountain, after a rain is awesome. Everything is so clean and crisp. The colors in the rocks and the wild flowers are vibrant. The sound of Cactus Wrens talking to each other, toads croaking, and most of all, the smell of the mesquite beans. It's sweet fragrance reminds me of home when I was growing up.
It is my sincere desire, that all people open their heart to the understanding that we are all one in spirit with Mother Earth. Her gifts to us are invaluable. As I said above, the land reacts to our intentions. Can you imagine how it would be if our intentions were to give back, out of love and respect ?

Booga Booga?
I woke up at 4 am to use the bath room and couldn't sleep, so I thought I would read the blog for a bit. The strangest thing happened. When I went to sign in on this blog site, I hit the key to enter my user name and my mother's email address entered itself.. and as I am writing this the "save now" link is flashing at me. Hmmmmm...... I would get the meaning more if it was Dad because he used to wake at this time to write. Any body know what she is saying?

The 12 or 13 Chakras
The second topic is chakras. Most people are familiar with the widely accepted seven major chakras of the human body. Please remember, these are only theories – it does not mean I am right, nor does it mean the others are right. You have to decide for yourself.
Many years ago, I ‘saw’ thirteen chakras – and was poo-pooed when I tried to bring up the topic.
My friend told me she heard about twelve chakras, so I excitedly Goolged “12 chakras”, and was sorely disappointed by what I found.
So I Googled thirteen chakras, and again, not quite what I was looking for. The closest I found was at the link below:
http://www.quantumretreat.com/chakra/pages/Eighth%20through%20Twelveth%20Chakras.aspx
The rest were very disappointing.
So, I will describe what most presented for the thirteen chakras followed by what I ‘see”. This, however, does NOT mean I am right!
Using a piano/keyboard as an example: the white keys (whole notes) represent the MAJOR chakras, while the black keys represent minor chakras.
What I saw in “google-land” was predominantly people identifying the twelve or thirteen chakras as: the seven major chakras (white keys) and then, using the half notes (black keys), filled in the other 5 or 6 chakras within the major (white keys) chakras.
Now to describe what I ‘see’.
The seven major accepted chakras, plus:
A peach colored chakra between the knees.
Another chakra at the base of the feet (no color here, but it does have the same vibration/feel as Mother Earth).
The other four chakras (as I see them when I am working on my chakras) progress, further and further, in distance beyond the crown chakra. Again, I have no colors associated with these other four chakras.
My friend believes she may have found the explanation of the other five chakras (based on a twelve chakra system). She found a description at “Bringers of the Dawn:
Teachings from the Pleiadians, Pt. 4”, YouTube link
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-5NaezgFKo&feature=related
Here they describe the 8th chakra as “realm of activity” and approx. one foot above the head; 9th as a “connection to the grid work” and located approx. above the earth; 10th a connection to the “solar system”; 11th connection to “galactic system”; and the 12th “anchored in the universe”.
I cannot say that I agree with the Pleaiadian channeling – but, again, it does not mean I am right! I am however, offering it up to you.

Ophiuchus - 13th Zodiac Sign?
Had a chat yesterday with a dear friend, and she brought up two topics which piqued my interest, and that I would like to share here: ‘Ophiuchus’ (13th zodiac) and Chakras.
(I am going to split these two up and enter them as two separate entries.)
My friend recommended that I Google this word - Ophiuchus - and found it is the thirteenth zodiac sign (or sun sign). During my Google-ing, I ran across the “YouTube” entry, “Lost Books of Nostradamus 2012 and Ophiuchus”. It was an interesting video (three parts) of the History Channel’s presentation – which explained that Nostradamus’ lost book consisted of paintings depicting the “end of the world” scenario/prediction, and included Ophiuchus’ role in this.
I am not a big fan of “doom and gloom”, so my point is not the end of the world; rather, it is what role Ophiuchus plays in the alignments and how it affects the human population.
If you decide to look into this, please share your thoughts/ideas on it.
