The Awakening Tribe

Greetings Fellow Adventurers!
In 3 weeks, we will be “easin’ on down the road”…”followin’ the Yellow Brick Road,”  heading for the magical Enchanted Rock, setting up camp sites, preparing the “Space” and awaiting the magical 11-11-11. If you have never been to the Enchanted Rock State Park, TX or if it has been a long time since you were there, here are some web links you might enjoy:

Even though everything about the Awakening Tribe is “unscheduled,” here is a rough idea of the happenings set for Friday, November 11, 2011:

1.  For day trippers, the Park opens at 8 AM, and we are targeting 10:00 AM as a meet up time. When you check in at the Visitor Center and get your pass, ask where the camp sites for Robert Daniel are.  That way you will have a point of contact if you don’t see some of us in the parking lot.  There are limits on the number of people they admit to the Park so keep that in mind as you make your travel plans.

2.  We will be setting the stage for the magical 11-11-11 and establishing positions for the amazing soundings!  You will hear a gong when we begin the soundings and another gong when we move from OHMMmmmm into silence as the time moves past 11:11.  Cool–huh?

3.  We will gather for sharing (perhaps with Peter and the 12) and then have lunch.

4.  After lunch, is Talking Stick.  This Talking Stick is marking a very special “time” for each of us as we move into “Knowing Who We Are and What We Want.”

WHAT TO BRING IF YOU ARE THERE FOR THE DAY.. Not limited to, but including…

lawn chairs, blankets and/or pillows to sit on
warm clothing and rain gear (we will be meeting even if it rains)
your sense of humor – just in case
lunch, snacks, etc.
water
drums, rattles, etc.
ceremonial things for the altar
sun screen, binoculars, cameras,
hiking/climbing shoes
your 2 year old who still knows about FUN!

WHAT TO BRING IF YOU ARE CAMPING: NOTE: If you are camping and don’t know what to bring to camp, you will probably win the “best comic relief” award  

Get your camping pass at the Visitor’s Center when you arrive
Ask for Robert Daniel’s camp sites locations
Someone in the group will help you find the perfect spot for your tent
The sites are already paid for so just pick up your camping pass
Hold the energy space for those of us who will be there for Friday only

21 DAYS AND COUNTING!  Join us in person if you can and if not, join us in Spirit!

Love ya,

Kay and Jan

An invitation is being extended to join us at Serpent Mound, Ohio, as we Gather the “Ways” June 23-26,2011. These remaining days in the Old World are calling us to celebrate and do ceremony as we re-power the Mound structures around the globe. Whatever Myth, Metaphor, or Magic best describes your “Way,” plan on joining us.

In my recent meditations, I’ve come to know just how outside “Cause and Effect” these structures are. History would have us believe that each generation has its rise and then its inevitable fall. You can’t get a more “Cause and Effect” explanation than that. We are taught that Civilizations rose to greatness and then met with some disaster and had to start all over again. What if all the so-called ancient civilizations are in a state of “waiting?” What if all the Begin-Times stories, all the accounts of the Great Flood, for example, and even the sometimes prophetic tales of the End-Times found among the legends of various people are waiting for a final telling that will re-join, re-power the true destiny of “what it is to be Human?” What if these are the times for extraordinary change, of coming together, and we are the ones given the opportunity to merge, join together, re-power all the blips on the Time Line of Human History! We are, indeed, the ones we’ve been waiting for!

So, whether you are from Hopi Snake Clan, related to Peru’s Brotherhood of the Seven Rays, have ridden on Pharaonic Egypt’s winged serpent, or have played the music of DNA in Atlantis, we invite you to come play with us as we Gather the Ways into the Oneness that is our calling! Mark your calendars, e-mail us so we can keep you posted on plans, and prepare for an amazing adventure.

Dear friend, Sage, balances energy

Let’s check and see what’s happening on the Playground…

A lot of Mind/Body/Spirit focused on Dark Canyon.  In June, the Tribe will be traveling to Dark Canyon, Utah, to locate the 4th Pyramid of the Four Corners.  Peter says this one is called the Crown Pyramid.  In my musings, it is clear that we will be playing with “hidden chambers,” connecting passageways, and capstone location.

To set the stage, I picked up a copy of Louis L’Amour’s classic western, Dark Canyon.  Opening to a random page, I could feel the shivers playing with my spine as I began to read…

“…In the days that followed, Riley began his exploration of Dark Canyon.  It was a gorge from fifteen hundred to two thousand feet deep, so narrow that for miles the sun never reached the bottom except at noon when it was directly overhead… Much of the canyon bottom was choked with a thick growth of trees and brush, dotted with pools of clear, cold water…Here and there, the pools were fairly deep and were shaded with cottonwood, box elder, ash and ferns.  When sunlight touched the higher walls of the canyon it turned to amazing color the sandstone and limestone walls, stained by water, streaked by iron or salt.  Only one trail led to the bottom, a dim trail used only be wild animals…”

“Great boulders bulked among the trees; willows leaned over the still, cold pools.  There was no sound but the faint trickle of water and the hum of bees…”

“For several miles he worked his way cautiously along the bottom, finally leaving his horse at a small meadow among the trees, where the grass was luxurious and green…”

“Here, in the barren, rocky country of the southeastern corner of Utah was a veritable Eden, a place so lovely and so remote as to be unbelievable.  And from above, not a hint of it, so far below.”

Wow! The symbolism leaves me with even more questions.  I’m off to commune with my “Muse”… to contemplate the broad scope of what awaits us in June.
