Awakening the Seed of Life, the song of the Dolphins and Whales... and Alchemy

I spent the day last Saturday with 20+ lovely ladies at a spiritual retreat in San Clemente.  The facilitator, Robbyne La Plant (WhiteWolfJourneys.com), has been a spiritual advisor to my awesome chiropractor and, on my last visit, she invited me to come along with her to this retreat.  Robbyne has been all over the world and has visited many spiritually charged locations and has studied the spiritual practices/philosophies of many cultures including Native American.  The focus of the group was the sacred power of the year 2014 (reduces to the number 7) and awakening the Seed of Life to usher in growth and change in the coming year.

As the ladies started to arrive, we were invited to stop at the cleansing bowl of water with rose petals, exhale into our hands to release any worries, concerns, or anything that is weighing heavy on our hearts - then wash our hands in the rose water to leave that energy at the door.  We gathered in a circle of the living room of our hostess' home - the coffee table turned into an "altar" of items placed by each of the ladies to be "charged" by the high vibrational energy about to be created by the group.  There were crystals, jewelry, statues, candles... I placed my silver Claddagh ring and my crystal from Sedona.

Our first of many meditations began with the question, "Am I living the best of me?"  Our focus was to work on opening up the chakras and raising our vibrational frequency to a lighter/higher state.  We studied the symbols the "Ankh", the "Pentagram", the "Seed of Life", and the "Vesica Piscis."  The healing Ankh of ancient Egypt is a powerful symbol to use at the New Moon.  It symbolizes the feminine (womb) and the masculine (phallis) and the flow of these energies.  This symbol can be used to send healing energy to someone by entering their name in the oval (womb), lighting a candle, and offering a meditation at the New Moon.  The Pentagram has a similar purpose; it's symbolism being a circle containing a 5 pointed star (triangles) creating a pentagon in the center.  The outer circle being water, the five points being air, fire, water, earth, love (elements).  The pentagon symbolizing the Goddess:  divine feminine energy.  Placing items (crystals, stones) into the center of the pentagon facilitates communication with other-worldly beings, guides.  The Vesica Piscis is a symbol of two circles intersecting with each other creating the shape of an eye; symbolizing the combining of the masculine/feminine energies and opening the "third eye" or intuition, creative energy.  We also studied the Seed of Life symbol; 7 circles intersecting creating a flower of life in the center.  All of these are symbols to elevate consciousness and vibrational frequency (harmonic vibration) to free you of emotional, fear-based energy while inviting guidance from higher consciousness/spirit beings.


Robbyne had several gifts for us throughout the day which she annointed with her oils which had been created while visiting various sacred, energy charged locations.  We received stones from the Ganges river in India - Shiva Lingam stones - prosperity stone - symbol of divine creative manifestation.  We received a Peacock Ore stone - known as the chakra stone, it cleanses and balances the chakras helping to calm your thoughts and resonates with the third eye helping you to rediscover forgotten, ancient esoteric knowlege.  We also received a Yew tree twig with yew oil and a pine seed - symbolizing longevity, strength, immortality, rebirth, change, divinity.

Seed of Life


2013 was a year of purging - releasing untruths, face fears, move through sudden and dramatic change.  2014 bringing transformation and manifestation of dreams.  We learned about the "Medulla Oblongata" or the dream center.  This is an 8th chakra opening your consciousness to ancient knowledge and your soul's purpose.  It regulates the connection your consciousness has with higher dimensions.  Oddly enough, I have been feeling a dull, achey, buzzing feeling on the back of my head in this area for about 6 months - also at my lower back.  Robbyne told me this is a sign that this chakra is trying to open.

We experienced the song of the dolphin and whale through tuning forks that Robbyne had custom made.  The frequency of the dolphin and whale "song" was created by a mathemetician and a musician.  She came to each of us, one by one, placing the tuning fork at certain points; third eye chakra, heart chakra.  She said that she spotted a whale spout at the surface that morning (beautiful ocean view at the hostess' home).  Later, she used a "Dragon" frequency tuning fork.  This was a very deep, resonating - almost a heart beat - vibrational quality which, I believe was to ground you with the earth's lay lines - energy grid.  We learned that the dolphin's fins when x-rayed look like a human hand (I also read that our brains are almost identical to dolphin and whale).  Their blow hole/spout is actually their dream center that remains open.  Swimming with the dolphins and experiencing their vibrational frequency realigns your chakras and balances energies - immediately.  It has been very therapeutic for people - including autistic children and those experiencing depression.  They are definitely very closely connected to humans.

We also learned the "Dolphin's Breath" exercise.  In times of stress or encountering negative energies or experiences - take one deep breath followed by exhaling 7 times, releasing air as a dolphin through its blow hole.  This will help you maintain energy balance and not be brought into another's drama.

It was a very interesting day.  I wasn't sure if I was going to be completely exhausted or charged up by the time I got home.  I think I was both.  Robbyne had items for sale - books, oils, and fire and ice crystals from Brazil.  They are super clear, crackled crystals with lots of rainbow colors when held in the light.  I bought one to take home and continue the energy work and meditation.  It was nice to be around such positive, spiritually connected people.  I want to investigate more into the Dream Center chakra since I've had this mysterious buzzing/aching in that area for some time.

2013 was definitely a year of change and growth for me.  Everything seemed to happen so fast.  The events of last fall are now like a blip on my radar.... but profound and powerful.  I am looking forward to the transformative power in the coming year.... and tapping into the power of manifestation of dreams.  I feel like I've already set the energy in motion with a few recent events.... and some exciting things in the works.  More on that to follow!

Namaste.
