And this catches my attention. Our trip is slated to end with Niagara and not one to miss the synchronistic connection my seventh dimensional guides must have been working over time to get us two together. Her words connected me to a vision of the trip I had yet to perceive. Before coming on this trip while still in aurora Ohio I had to make decisions on what to bring. The only spiritual component of the trip I understand is that I am to bring crystals that need to be buried. This clue I learned from my first adventure in Sedona where it was explained to me that I was using crystals to create a grid of energy between these specific places I was to visit. Having no clue what crystals to bring again I stayed open to receive guidance. Two days prior to the trip I had a vision of selenite, wondering how much selenite I had I didn’t question until the day before when I packed the car. Needing at least four pieces of selenite I knew I had two long rods of the stuff, but wasn’t sure what else I owned. Not questioning the vision I simply packed the car and then went to my meditation room where hundreds of lovely crystals reside. Finding the two rods from my vision I walk around casing the place looking for the remaining crystals that are to make the journey. Hanging on the wall I find three selenite pieces I had completely forgotten about. They are as large as your hand from the wrist up. Each have flat bottoms and pointed tops raw on the bottom and carved into the pointed top. Grabbing these three I lay them next to the two rods and question how these five are going to partner together, but recognize I don’t need to know that now and acknowledge their connection will come through later in the trip. I also grab the Tibetan Tektite that has established itself as the connection to my frozen bodies and the ET race and grab four pieces of that as well. Sunday the car is loaded, the boys jump in and I walk from one side of the car to the other where I being to enter the driver seat. Something pulls me back and I walk as if I had forgotten something inside the garage. Walking back slowly I scan the open garage and shake my head, catching the planter box filled with trees I see the statue of Buddha we have sitting amongst some low shrubs. Last summer my boys and I put fairy stones around the statue to bring the fairies to our garden. Pausing I stare at the stones and say its not your turn. Having a direct connection to a fairy planet my timeline there reanimated and there was no longer a connection to that body on that planet, I was moving through this journey to connect to Uriel from the Planet of Fire. Confused I walked back to the car, and paused once again as my mental body tugged me back towards the stones. Surrendering I walked towards them and grabbed the four stones not understanding how they would participate but knowing its better to bring them and not use them to not bring them and want them.
Having the selenite and hearing the woman's words sitting next to me at the pool I get an instant flash that the waters of the great lake of Huron are going to somehow be a big part of this journey. Long lost memories of the great lake come into my mind and I can see how the magical energy is going to be supporting this journey. I can see the energy grid I am creating through the five different places and somehow get the feeling the lake and its energy will help to support all of which I am trying to create or help establish. Again having only a small piece of the puzzle it feels right and I thank the woman and man who are now leaving with their family. They have imparted so much more than they will ever know into my journey here. I am so thankful for these synchronistic connections as my path would have never found the connection to Tahquamenon Falls without her.
After another hour of pool play it is time to find food and move to our room. Relaxing into the hotel room the boys are happily watching cartoons and I decide it is time to finish my Solar Plexus chakra meditation. Asking the boys to not bother me I put the headphone into my ears and start the third meditation of the solar plexus chakra. Listening to the words I am fully engaged for about ten minutes before my own journey begins to take place. Moving quicker than normal energy begins pulling from all around me. Hearing only brief words form the recording in the background I am asked to bring in an archetype. I find myself staring at a mirror and a full body image of myself is staring back at me. My mental voice calls out to my angels and guides and Uriel and asks them to allow me to transcend this physical body I see standing before me. The voice again begs asking out that I relinquish my human agenda allowing my path to align to that of the divine. I feel the words all around me like a prayer being uttered from my own heart. Then my energy started falling and spinning the vision of what I had been staring at disappears and everything in the vision goes black. It feels as if my physical, and energetic body had been captured by a spider who was about to feed on me, the web began spinning around me and I spun around and around. Having a consciousness in my physical body in the room and also having a consciousness in all of my other bodies I could feel each body tumbling and spinning in different directions. I knew I was laying flat on the bed but could help but also feeling like I was in a never ending free fall. All of a sudden the intense energy simply stopped. I intuitively knew the crystals within my body had been aligned and the mental voice spoke again requesting that my DNA and chromosomes be updated, upgraded and activated. I felt all of my divine team surrounding me yet couldn’t see a soul all was still black. The frequency within the hotel room was palpable, my body was on fire it was vibrating so intensely. Letting go I know whatever had just happened was done. I was recalibrate and felt like I had found a new zero point for my human self. Again on some intuitive level as I opened my eyes I could feel any remaining bit of need to control this path this journey had gone. I had gained a level of 100% trust in this adventure, but not only here. This was a new calibration for my life. There was no need to control from the human agenda, transcendence from the human container has gone. I feel completely expansive and trusting in the void of what lies around me. Trust is gained and I am ready to move forward not knowing what is waiting for me in all areas of my life.
Coming fully back into the room, I find Camden and taylor are relaxed we are all ready for sleep. My agenda to see the northern lights is still present, but I recognize I can have trust and faith that if I am meant to awake and seek them out that I will be waken if and when the time comes. Settling in for sleep we all hit the hay by 9:21pm. Sending a final prayer out I ask that my guides, angles and Uriel wake me up if I need to get up, that way I don’t try and control when to go out and stress about what I am going to experience. Leaving everything up to the divine plan I lie my head down and settle into bed realizing that if I am awoken there will be something to experience and that if I stay asleep maybe that was the overall intention. Finding it hard to quite my mind, after a good few turns from left to right sleep finally comes.
10:21pm exactly one hour later my phone buzzes and wakes me from the part of REM where you almost feel sick in having to get up. Rolling over I check the time and grab my phone. Bryce my cousin has texted asking for a recap of my Peru trip from this time last year, he is 90% ready to go and needs the final motivation to buy his ticket. (not knowing it at the time, this text would perk up my subconscious allowing for deeper experiences later). Seeing the text and not replying I recognize the text was sent through a very sensitive individual to get me up and out of bed to proceed on my first late night adventure to find the northern lights. Rolling over I fight the urge to go back to sleep, my mental state is trying to ignore the synchronicity. The warmth of the bed and the heavy breathing coming from the two boys gives me every reason to ignore this intrusion, I had pleasantly requested before closing my eyes. Standing up I move towards the windows to see if the sky has any painted colors present. Black and dimly lit by the bridge overpass by our hotel, I debate in my mind one more time the benefits to going or staying. This being the first nights adventure to find the norther lights I hadn’t quite bought into the whole release control idea. Finally surrendering, I get dressed and start dressing the sleeping boys.
Taylor is much more compatible than Camden who fights every twist and turn battling on his pants and then shirt. Leaving the hotel room, I am carrying Cam and Taylor is walking like a zombie next to me. Taking the back stairwell we exit the side door and arrive at the car in no time. Having set up the back of the van prior to leaving Ohio it has been primed for this portion of our trip. There is a memory foam mattress, sheets, blankets and pillows, the perfect little sleeping space for late night light hunting. Cam immediately snuggles in and falls immediately back into sleep where Taylor cuddles up but stays lucidly awake. Diving the empty streets our hotel is only 25 minutes away from the dark park. The eerie setting of this empty seasonal town is a bit haunting. Yellow lights illuminate the road ever so often allowing the slick wet black road to take shape underneath us matching the sky above.
Arriving to the park the GPS gets the car only so far before the destination is over, this leave us at what appears to be the first entrance to the park. Following the sighs down a dirt path the road becomes bumpy and we slowly drive down what appears to be a sloping hill. Hoping this is not a foot path, andnot having done much research on how busy this place could be I drive 10 miles an hour and turn up the cars lights. Searching every twist and turn a light rain has been falling since we left the hotel, the wetness coats the trees in such a way that everything glistens leaving things almost dream like. Searching the path, the sky and the trees my eyes are scanning everything for as many clues as possible. Not knowing what my purpose here is, I am as open as possible to receive divine guidance wherever it might come from. Turning another corner something is spotted in the trees, first my eyes catch what I assume might be a plaque describing the trail, yet standing directly behind it I see a brief glimpse of what I think is a fully dressed solder! Having turned the corner my eyes only rest upon this figure for a second before the car passes. My heart starts pumping faster, and I can feel my breathing restrict. Did my eyes really see that? Was that a ghost? Is this part of my journey? Was that a hiker watching our car? Every possible question and solution moves through my mind. Wanting forever to see apparitions with my open eyes I wonder if this trip is where that talent will finally settle in?
Arriving at the bottom of the hill this seems to be our destination, there is a large sign at the bottom of a small turn around area. There is a gate to the side that says something about a cottage house and there appear to be paths to our front and other side. It is pitch black as soon as I turn off the car, having already adjusted the door lights at the hotel not to come on, we are left with nothing but the stars. When I started planning the trip I realized that this spring break adventure would take place on March 26th 2017 the day the new moon would start, meaning there was zero visibility from the moon in the night sky. Divine presenting itself once again, recognizing this again at this moment when everything was pitch black, I tried to trust in the adventure and however it was supposed to unfold.
Opening the car door, alerted Taylor to my intentions. “Mom, I am scared.” His words matched my feelings exactly. The vision of the person in the woods had startled me, and I could feel the residual fear in my body. Knowing that divine guidance won’t connect when you are in the energy of fear I tried to release the tension from my body and relax into the unknown space of what could happen. “Why are you scared, Taylor?” my voice was calm and intrigued open to hear what he was feeling. “I am not so sure, but I am scared that there might be predators out there looking to attack.” He was of course talking about animals, but his concerned matched exactly the internal state of what I had witnessed in the forest moments ago, and in my case the concern was fully connected to my ability to protect my vulnerable family from any physical predator.
Talking to Taylor about his feelings, I was trying to convince myself just as much as I was trying to convince him. “No animals are going to come for us, they would see us and know not to mess with us.” Questioning my own trepidation, I know that I am 100% protected by divine guidance right now, so why am I allowing so much fear to come in. That image shock me to my core, and made me question my physical safety. Planning this trip I had only prepared myself for our destinations and the midnight adventures, I didn’t allow my mind to wonder concerning anything else. I knew everything else would come through by synchronicity, like it had from the encounter at the pool earlier in the day, so why so much questioning in this moment?
Getting out of the car, I popped the trunk to be able to see and sit with Taylor in the back. The light rain was still falling and there were no visible lights in the sky. Moving behind the car, I did the only other thing I knew to do regarding the spiritual portion of this trip. Uriel came to me during a meditation experienced not to soon after Sedona. When he came through he explained that I needed to perform a sort of dance when I got to each of the places on my Northern Lights trip. The only way I can explain this dance is to review the body positions. I believe the intention is to create a type of vortex because there is clockwise and counter clockwise spinning. While spinning one arm is above your head with the palm face up and the other is below your waist with the palm face down, spinning in one direction you repeat with the same hand positions in the opposite direction. Then flipping the arm heights and palms you perform he spinning again in both directions. Once the spinning was complete I was to bring the palms of my hands together where I could see rainbow light pouring out of them and move into a low squat. That was it! So I performed this sequence and then jumped in the back of the car with Taylor who was asking me to come inside because he was still scared. Feeling the same, I did what he asked and then allowed his concern to guide me into leaving the park. Staying there no more the thirty minutes we had made our exit back to the hotel.
The next morning we gathered our items from the hotel and packed the car. Getting ready to go I told the boys we were going to go back to the dark park, because I needed to bury one of the crystals. Getting to the park we followed the GPS until it stopped and then followed the signs like the night before. Moving down the hill in the light of day I was amazed to see this path was only big enough for one car. Hoping there would be no other cars out exploring I moved cautiously down the path. Scanning the forest my heart skipped a beat when I saw the solder again. This time in full daylight I could see it was an erected cut out standing next to a sign apparently explaining more about the dark park. Feeling a bit silly it only took a moment for the totality of this journey to set in. The realization of what I was here doing became clear. Being a self proclaimed “balanced” human I recognize the amount of fear I held last night was completely out of balance for my normal constitute. My mind flashed to the selenite crystals I brought and the location of this adventure and I realized immediately that I am here helping to transmute fear! Getting to the bottom of the hill I see that the sign we parked in front of the night before talked about the beach below. Getting out of the car with the boy we walk the short path to the beach. Standing on the edge of the beach I realize we are at the exact point between Lake Huron and Lake Michigan. The water and its transmuting power becomes completely evident to me and my mind begins unraveling pieces already collected. Standing by the lake the boys and I find a tree that has corkscrewing branches signaling its connection to energy and a vortex and we decide this is the exact place we need to bury this first crystal.
The boys each put their beautiful energy into the selenite point and I take hold of it and allow all of the fear I held the previous night to flood back into me. Realizing that this journey is for me and humanity I recognize the amount of fear that our collective still holds attached to the physical world. Not having to deal with this in my normal life the previous night’s experiences brought up not only the deep connection to fear I had buried but also brought up the amount of fear evident in our collective connection to one another. All of my spiritual teaching have imbedded the knowledge that higher vibrational forces doing divine work will always be protected or in alignment therefore having nothing to worry about, so why did I allow myself to become susceptible to the energy of fear? I realize I was in a very physical place and living a very low vibration one that humanity typically experiences, therefore allowing my energetic field to tap into the vibration of fear. The experience of my meditation also floods back into my awareness and I realize I am being called to step out of what I have created and transform into the next level of my own divinity. IN doing this I have to 100% trust in divine and allow my way to be guided when I have no control and give in to the vulnerability of my path. This is much easier said then done, and I believe this Northern Lights journey will hep teach me these principals.
Layering the three stones, Tibetan Tektite to connect to the ET cords still present. The Fairy stone which I now understand was brought to help transmute the fear and imbed JOY, and the selenite crystal. We decide to bury the point facing up helping to pull that fear from the physical Earth and humanity and transmute it into the ether which lies above the physical. Doing the vortex dance now all three of us on the shores of Michigan we laugh together and then run back to the car, tucking ourselves in, ready to move towards our next adventure.
Upper Peninsula – Sault Ste. Marie US side.
This leg of the journey was only slated to take an hour and thirty minutes, but after meeting the local family I couldn’t pass up taking the guidance to explore the Tahquamenon Falls State Park which will detour us maybe two or so hours. Being a stop planned more for the hotel pool than the norther lights this will be a nice unplanned experience. Driving onto the upper peninsula it is apparent that this part of Michigan is also closed down for the season. Arriving right onto the highway we get detoured quickly towards what I expect to be the opposite side of the island. Driving we are scheduled to be on this same road for over an hour. The trip proceeds on and close to an hour in we have passed one truck and one gas station. The landscape is never changing and I feel like I am driving into some twilight zone opening. Signs warn to drive with a half full tank of gas, and watch for snow mobile traffic. Watching the sides of the roads still covered in snow I see recent carvings left by the proclaimed snowmobiles. The markings signal life once existed here yet boarded up shops and deserted streets beg otherwise.
Making our way to the opposite side of the peninsula we drive along streets that meet the lake, frozen waters kissing the barren landscape create an eerie ambiance and the isolation begins separating me from rational thoughts. Checking my gas tank the needle is hovering below the ¼ full mark and a sinking fear begins to settle in. What is it with this fear? Never feeling this trapped and alone my spiritual self begins analyzing the situation from a higher perspective. Where are these feelings coming from. Separating from the emotion of it all I begin analyzing the situation, being divinely guided I have nothing to fear, when and if something is needed I can trust the answer will present itself, so why do I still have so much fear?
Driving past a gas station, looking at the one exposed free standing pump and the flashing open sign my mind twists at the thought of stopping here. Scared emotions surface once again preventing me from turning in. Leaving the safe comfortable reality I am use to and heading into these back woods with their unfamiliar options scare me. Something didn’t feel right about the location so I continued on with less than 50 miles of available gas. Reassuring myself that I will be taken care of, I am beginning to question myself here in this isolated landscape and begin reviewing emergency options if something were to happen. Driving into the town settled outside of the falls I can see more civilization come to be yet everything is closed. Little mom and pop shops and food places sprinkle the streets all with closed for the season messages posted over their signs. Driving further into town we being our ascent into the state park and as the gas needle drops further towards empty I see over the hill a 76 orange ball come into view. Relief washes over me as I pull closer towards the drive way. Once in view I see this station is a replica of the last, one single pump and a glowing open sign. Realizing it is now or literally never I pull over and face the ego I had been holding onto. Parking the car, I carefully walk across the melting snow which has become slick ice towards the shop. A husband and wife team greet me as I walk inside. “Do I pump first or pay first?” part of my fear is that I have no clue how to deal with this kind of small town service station, and I didn’t want to do things wrong and look silly. “Pump and tell us the amount, we will charge you when you’re done.”
Performing the task as instructed, I proceed back into the store to pay when the husband asks if we are heading to the falls. My face softens as I answer him, yes. “I wouldn’t suggest going to the lower falls this time of year, they don’t plow the paths and its sure to give you trouble unless you brought your snow gear.” Understanding the reason for entering this gas station I ask a few questions about the upper and lower falls, not having known there were two to select from and thank the two for the kind help. Relieved at the kind openness of the two I head up the hill the remaining twenty minutes towards the falls. Passing a large obvious sing for the lower falls I send a silent thank you to the man who helped me avoid a complete disaster in coming all this way just to turn away when I found the paths un walkable. Without knowing there were two to select from and the signs not being of much help either I can see the reason for my gas dilemma.
Driving another 10 minutes after seeing the sign for the lower falls we make it to the upper falls. Walking the short fifteen minute track alone piled snow towards the viewing area, each new viewing area gives another little glimpse of the falls which are increasingly getting louder and louder as we move along the snow covered path. The last stop brings us to the 96 stair wooden descending platform which looks out over the falls. With new excitement the boys run down the stairs and I quickly follow behind. Standing on the lowest deck the energy of the falls roars and the electric energy fills the air. Understanding why we were guided here and understanding the cleansing power of this rushing water I lift my arms and release the tension, fear, worry and isolation I had let cloud my journey. The cool air married with the tiny dewy droplets of water kissing my face brought me right into a meditative space. Having used this image many times while connected into my sacred heart space I feel the heart beat of the world happen here and I find a release and vulnerability I had yet to tap into.
