At the Crossover: A White Stone . . . and a New Name
“We as individuals carry power and are part of a larger pattern in which power moves through earth and tides, seasons and thoughts and words.” —Rose Meeker

I HAD A DREAM A FEW NIGHTS AGO about the number 8. There was a large poster in front of what appeared to be a holistic healing center that read “DEEP EIGHT” and a large number 8 below the caption. The message I heard was that the vibrational essences in the top half of the 8 have descended and deeply penetrated the lower half energizing and renewing it. The implication was that we had reached the place in our spiritual movement and transformation between the New Heaven above the New Earth below where all power in Heaven and on Earth are given to us as a collective body of Man to bring forth the New Earth deeply into our planet. Not only bring it into planet Earth but to bring forth a new order into our Solar Entity. We have come fully into the crossover point between Heaven and Earth, the Fourth Dimension where I AM known.
The Human Race is at a crossroads: either we move up in consciousness to the “Fourth Dimension” or we perish in third-density existence. We are seven-dimensional entities . . . more than bodies with minds and hearts. We are Human Beings: spiritual beings who incarnated from out of the immaterial, invisible realms of Light and into the material, visible realm of physical matter — spirits in flesh bodies with minds and hearts that let us live and serve on the material plane of being. That’s four densities, or dimensions: Spirit, heart, mind, body — through which moves a mighty river of Love, of Truth and of Life. That makes seven dimensions . . . which comprise a whole new entity which may be described as God in action on Earth. At the fourth dimension, the crossover point, I AM present as a Human Being, spirit incarnate, at the crossover point between Heaven and Earth.
(The graphic below portrays several cycles and configurations, which I will not detail in this post; perhaps in a future post. What I wish to portray with this graphic is the “larger pattern through which power moves”— and of which we are a part — in the Creative Process that brings forth Man and the entire world of form. What I sensed in my dream was that the cycles moving in the “INNER PLANE” of the New Heaven above had moved down into the “OUTER PLANE” below where Man lives — where we live and have our being and co-create the New Earth.
Note that in the outer plane the cycle moves down on the left and up on the right, bringing down the patterns in the New Heaven for the New Earth into human consciousness, while disintegrating the old heaven in human consciousness and the old earth maintained by the disintegrating old heaven in consciousness, and on the right simultaneously integrating the elements that give form to the New Earth. Our role is one of stewarding this creative cycle, which has been moving long before the Awakening in human consciousness. We who have awakened to this cycle bear the greater responsibility for stewarding it.)

Since our fall out of the Garden state, we have functioned, in consciousness and in behavior, as third-density creatures on a third-density planet, not much more intelligent than our apian friends, though sadly more destructive. Our planet has begun its movement vibrationally to the Fourth Density where it will no longer be able to support third-density entities. So, we find ourselves as planetary inhabitants squeezed out of our comfort zone in third-density and being pressured to let go and move on up with the planet to a higher vibrational state: the Fourth Dimension. A critical number have already moved up and cleared the path for all to follow. “The Earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof; the world and they that dwell therein.”

I POSTED THIS THREE YEARS AGO and feel it is time to repost it. Each time when I return to this inspired writing, I am summoned once again to a place of remembrance of my mission and purpose. As I explore in my book SACRED ANATOMY– where spirit and flesh dance in the fires of creation, we have in our physical anatomy and endocrine physiology the equipment to transform and transmute our flesh bodies to higher vibrational frequencies. I write about this endocrine physiology of hormonal function, with its potential alchemy for transmutation of flesh, in my book. It feels timely now to revisit the chapter “The Spiritual Significance of the Pineal Gland.” For context, you would benefit by reading the post previous to this one: “The Pineal Gland, Crystal Portal for Incarnation.“

To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.” (Rev 2:17)
A STONE CUT OUT WITHOUT HANDS
Uranda’s reference in my previous post to the “white stone” as being the “renewed Pineal Gland” reminds me of another place in the Old Testament of the Bible where a small stone is mentioned that plays a pivotal role in the history of the Middle East. This reference is in the second chapter of The Book of Daniel. It is such a wonderful and pertinent story that I would like to consider it in all of its dramatic and significant details.
DANIEL AND KING NEBUCHADNEZZAR
It seems that Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar, having just besieged Jerusalem—something that occurred quite frequently in those days—had a dream which he summoned his soothsayers to not only interpret for him but to tell him the very dream itself, for he had forgotten it. All he could remember of it was that it troubled his spirit so much that it woke him from his sleep. Yet he could not remember the dream, so he summoned all the wise men of Babylon to remember it for him and interpret it. When they could do neither, he was so furious that he commanded that they all be destroyed, along with Daniel and his fellows, Shadrach, Mishach and Abednego — formerly known by the names, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah, respectively. To Daniel was given the name “Belteshazzar.”
Of course Daniel, who had not as yet had his chance at the dream, came to the king and did indeed tell him his dream as well as its interpretation. This pleased the king, who then acknowledged that Daniel’s God was truly “a God of gods, and a Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets,” so he showered Daniel with many gifts and made him ruler over all the governors of Babylon. He also placed Daniel’s fellows over the affairs of the province of Babylon, with its hanging gardens, one of the “seven wonders of the world.” (Near present-day Baghdad)
THE DREAM
The dream itself was of a great image that was fashioned of various ores. His head was made of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass, his legs of iron and his feet, interestingly enough, were made with a mixture of iron and clay. What likely troubled king Nebuchadnezzar so was what happened in his dream to this image when a stone, “cut out without hands,” smote the image upon its feet. The feet mixed with iron and clay crumbled and the whole image came tumbling down and all that the image was made of—the gold, the silver, the brass and the iron mixed with clay—was blown away by the wind so that nothing was left of it anywhere. But the stone became a great mountain which filled the whole earth.
Daniel interpreted the dream as a prophetical outworking that would see the rise and fall of several empires, including Nebuchadnezzar’s Babylonian empire, which Daniel said was represented by the head of gold. There would be other empires to come after the Babylonian empire, such as the Persian, the Grecian and Roman empires. All would rise and fall. The stone represented the kingdom of Daniel’s “God of heaven” which would be established during the reign of these kings and would remain to fill the whole earth after these other kingdoms had passed away.
King Nebuchadnezzar, for whatever reason, was not content to simply heed the message of his dream. He had a ninety by nine foot statue, or “image of gold,” erected “in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon” (Daniel 3:1). Now Babylon [today’s Iraq] was a province, or state—a collective, in other words, of many cities. In the Bible, whenever a city or state is mentioned, it may be seen as a metaphor for consciousness, so that Babylon could be seen here as relating to the collective consciousness of humanity in which the human mind plays a focal role as a lens to refocus the light of truth. The mind is historically thought to be anchored within the brain. So I think it’s interesting, if not significant, that this “image of gold” was erected in the “plain of Dura” somewhere in Babylon. The word “Dura,” as we saw above, is also used to identify the outer protective membrane of the brain and spinal chord.
In other words, this image could be seen as representing an image of gold held in the human intellect, gold representing love, but also what gold brings, namely power, as well as abundance and wealth. To Nebuchadnezzar this image of gold represented his many gods and the gifts of wealth and plenty these gods had bestowed upon him and his empire. Having erected this gigantic idol, he commanded that, upon hearing the sound of the “musick,” everyone, under penalty of death in the fiery furnace, should fall down and worship the golden image.
ONE “LIKE UNTO THE SON OF GOD” IN THE FIERY FURNACE
As the story goes, it was reported to the king that Daniel’s three companions were not obeying his command, so the king had Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego bound and thrown into the fiery furnace to honor his decree. So furious was he that these three friends of Daniel would not worship his gods that he had the furnace heated seven times more than it was wont to be heated. As we recall, the three men, who went into the fiery furnace singing songs of praise and thanksgiving to their God, were not burned by the fire but only their bonds, along with the men who had thrown them into the furnace, were destroyed, setting them free.
The king was suddenly “astonied” because of what he saw in the furnace:
“Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire ?” he asked of his counselors. “True, king” they answered him. “Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.” (Daniel 3:24-25)
Here is that vision again of the One standing in the midst of fire that is like unto the Son of God. There was a presence, in other words, that was of another dimension.
Daniel himself was favored by all the kings who reigned during his lifetime because “an excellent spirit was in him,” and because of his strong faith in his God. The Median King Darius later on would have to throw Daniel into the lion’s den to appease the Medes and Persians, who are known for their unalterable laws, only to spend a sleepless night fasting and in deep repentance hoping that Daniel’s God would surely deliver him. He arose early in the morning and went with haste to the lion’s den crying out remorsefully but hopefully for Daniel, whom he found quite whole and unharmed. He was “exceeding glad” and therefore commanded that those who had made the accusation against Daniel themselves be fed to the lions, along with their wives and their families. Further he wrote to all the peoples of the entire earth that had peace among them and decreed that “in every dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the God of Daniel: for he is the living God, and steadfast forever, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed, and his dominion shall be even unto the end.”
It is noteworthy here that throughout this story of Daniel he is placed first over other princes and governors because of his spirit, which was the spirit of the Lord God whom Daniel worshiped and sought to represent to the rulers and people of this great empire. It is also noteworthy that this king, along with others after him in the story, were constantly torn between their many gods—the gods of gold, silver, brass, iron, wood and stone—and this One God of Heaven that Daniel worshiped and obeyed. Whereas they could not deny the awesome power Daniel’s God bestowed upon him, particularly over secrets and dreams (it seems the kings of that era had a lot of disturbing dreams), they would resort to their traditions of placating the gods of their religions so as to assure their kingship, as well as the people’s homage, respect and obedience, as rulers of the world at that time.
It was always the accusations of the other governors against Daniel and his companions that caused the king to enforce his own decrees, only to hope in his heart that Daniel’s God would surely deliver them. This dynamic makes the story all the more interesting and relevant to human nature antics, which have not changed much. For even to this day do we worship the gods of gold, silver, brass, iron, wood and especially stone which we grind up to construct our buildings and highways. So do we also make laws that cannot be broken without paying either with money or our lives — the same laws to be used in bringing down those in high places of government, our leaders and elected officials whom we blame for our troubles, while praying to God for deliverance from them.
This was the empire where Daniel began to prosper and his God of Heaven was acknowledged as being the “God of the living” to be feared and worshiped by all peoples everywhere. The one just prior to this one, ruled over by Nebuchadnezzar’s son, Belshazzar, was the one represented in the dream by the feet made of iron mixed with clay. It had fallen, bringing all the empires of that era down into the dust of obliteration. But Daniel’s God and his heavenly kingdom, once a little stone, had grown into a great mountain which filled the whole earth.
Stay tuned for the rest of the story and its prophetic significance in my next post. Until then,
Be love. Be loved

The Torus Energy Biosphere

THERE IS A UNFIED CREATING FIELD enveloping our physical bodies. It’s a large part of who and what we are. In fact, this field IS who we are, and it’s at our command. Whether knowingly or unknowingly, we create our worlds and our physical forms by every spirit-imbued thought, word, intention and emotion we entertain and utter and every enactment we perform within our creating field.


I believe we are . . . ascending. At least the energy of the planet appears to be shifting to a higher frequency, and our bodies are very much a part of the planet, so they would also be ascending along with it. Is this an automatic process happening to us, or do we have any part to play in facilitating the process? I believe that both things are happening. Our bodies are being uplifted to a higher frequency and we have a part to play in the process—that is if we wish to take our bodies with us, which may well be possible one day, but not today. Presently, we can only take our spiritual bodies, our souls, with their subtle energy substance with us when we make our transition from the physical plane back to our origin in the realms of Light.

ACCORDING TO THE BIBLICAL RECORD OF CREATION handed down to us in the Book of Genesis, among the many trees in the garden planted “eastward in Eden” were the “tree of life” and the “tree of the knowledge of good and evil.” Both trees grew “in the midst” of the garden. Now, the garden is the heaven of consciousness, and the East is from whence our tomorrows come. A garden is where seeds are planted for tomorrow’s harvest. So this entire setting relates to the seeding of consciousness for tomorrow’s creations.
Now, let us think of the “tree of life” in our bodies as being the sacred anatomy of our endocrine system, comprised of seven hormonal glands that are under the control and direction of Spirit, the incarnate angel, differentiated into seven vibrational frequencies that nourish them. These sacred parts of our physical anatomy serve as “lamps of fire” (as John of Revelation describes the “seven spirits before the throne of God” set in heaven) that shine the light of Love and Truth into the world through our living. We can eat freely from the tree of life by giving expression to the spirits of Love, such as patience, thankfulness, compassion and joy, to name but a few. 
Eleven years ago, I began sharing meditations on the beauty and spiritual significance of our physical anatomy from my book 


IN BRINGING this series to a close, reflecting back on the period in which SACRED ANATOMY was written and published, between the years 1990 and 2005, those nine years during which I was compelled by Spirit to bring the image out of the heaven and into print were years of virtual withdrawal from the world and of dwelling “in the Secret Place of the Most High . . . under the Shadow of the Almighty,” as the psalmist declares.¹ It was a gift from Spirit, given as enlightenment and personal counsel, intended to be shared in book form.
