Newest music CD - Beyond The Pale, Legends Of The Goddess II by Laura Powers

"The musical journey continues enfolding the listener in a place that is both ancient and new. Circle and soar over the moors with the "Sisters of the Wind", experience nature's wisdom (Answer Me With Silence) and smell the jasmine wind as the goddess of the sea guides you through unknown waters (Goddess of the Sea Mist). Enhanced by Celtic instrumentation such as uilleann pipes, tin whistle and Irish flute the music radiates a haunting beauty that captures the heart and soothes the spirit."

A Mist Rose Up From The Earth

א' בחשון תשס"ח

In follow-up to the previous post, Drawn From Satisfaction, describing my new unique pure quartz crystal ball, I note that my sphere has a diameter of 5 1/4 inches. What kabbalistic secret resting within the mystery of Chavah's original name (Chayah), enduring forever (Yenon), can be understood from this fact?

ויפח באפיו נשמת חיים; ויהי האדם, לנפש חיה

The numbers which comprise the diameter running through the heart of my healing sphere are 5-1-4. These numbers correspond to the letters of the word "hod" (הוד), except a letter aleph is in the position of the vav, making the configuration האד.

האד means "the vapor", "the mist". This is a "specific" mist, spoken forth in Bereshit 2:6:

... and there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.

Bereshit 2:7 follows the mist's rising which waters:

Then the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

Interestingly, at the supermarket yesterday on the way home from work, I bought a relaxation CD with beautifully peaceful music and background sounds of misty sea waves crashing into shore on it. I was listening to the mezmerizingly peaceful sounds emanating from this CD as I finalized the purchase of my crystal ball. What an amazing unplanned synchronicity with the sphere I also acquired yesterday!

Catch it.

Wrestling With Ruach Hashem

ג' בתשרי תשס"ח

In my entry Wrestling, Redeeming & Sanctifying Truth, I wrote of a mist which arose to seed the universe:

Simultaneous with the arising of the wrestling primal goddesses, I saw that the entire atmosphere became chock (חוק) full of dandelions releasing their seeds - so many that they looked like a whitish mist made of dandelion seeds being cast out from the place into the universe at large.

In addition to the dandelion symbolism I discussed in the linked post, the symbolism of the mist is significant.

In my vision, the mist arose from and hovered over the face of the waters where the primal goddesses wrestled toward unification.

"... and ruach Elohim hovered over the face of the waters." Bereshit 1:2

Jewish kabbalah teaches that this hovering ruach Elohim of Bereshit 1:2 is none other than the soul of messianic consciousness.

Mist in Hebrew is אד. A gathering of water (like a cauldron-pond) corresponds to the Hebrew letter mem ם. Together, the mist and the cauldron-pond form the word אדם (adam, in terms of mankind), a code for the 3 archetypal souls of mankind - Adam, David and Mashiach.

As discussed in previous entries, the two primal goddesses in my vision were wrestling in the cauldron-pond to bring forth a unified messianic consciousness. The mist of ruach Elohim hovered over them. The two primal goddesses in the cauldron-pond represent ruach Hashem wrestling toward unification of the Essential Divine Name and its expression into unified messianic consciousness.

Ezer knegdo phrases based on Bereshit 2:6.

"... there arose a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground."

"... there arose a mist from the waters, and seeded the whole face of the air" (see avir kadmon and it's relationship to mem/waters).

Ruach Hashem & The Birth Of An Anointing Prophet

Interestingly, the (ה) feminine vision of ruach Hashem (זה נבואה) occurred on second day of Rosh Hashanah of the year 5768 (see link for elucidation). The brit milah of Shmu'el ben Chanah occurred in a dream this morning, the shabbat immediately following Rosh Hashanah. Chanah is one of my Hebrew names and the birth and dedication of the prophet Shmu'el is in the haftarah for the first day of Rosh Hashanah.

Wrestling, Redeeming & Sanctifying Truth

ג' בתשרי תשס"ח

The afternoon of the first day of Rosh Hashanah, I performed a Jewitch tashlich. At that time I cast the ashes of rituals from the past year into a swampy green cauldron pond in the woods.

As I was waking this morning, I had a powerful mind-vision of two primal goddesses arising from the swampy pond waters (which were waist high on them) where I had performed my Jewitch tashlich. They were wrestling and they arose wrestling, as if the act of wrestling caused the "arising revelation".

Simultaneous with the arising of the wrestling primal goddesses, I saw that the entire atmosphere became chock (חוק) full of dandelions releasing their seeds - so many that they looked like a whitish mist made of dandelion seeds being cast out from the place into the universe at large.

Magickally, dandelions correspond to the Hecate and David archetypes, the planets Jupiter and Saturn, the Hebrew letter tav (through Jupiter), the Ogham letter ruis (through Saturn), the element of air, the channel from yesod to malchut, shabbat consciousness, and the powers of divination/nevuah, manifesting desires and spirit-calling.

Dandelion in Hebrew is שינן, from the shoresh שנן meaning "focus", "precise instructional tool", "directed speech", and "sharpen". Importantly, dandelion comes to "sharpen" the Hebrew letter shin שין, representing the consciousness of mashiach ben Yosef, into the consciousness of mashiach ben David.

With the wrestling of the two primal goddesses of the cauldron-pond, the two meshichim are becoming one.

Interestingly, the Ogham letter ruis corresponds to the color red (Esau, David, Adam) and is the thirteenth (אחד echad = one, with a gematria of 13) letter of the Ogham alphabet.

To mark this Rosh Hashanah vision, I've just created a new original incense recipe - Cauldron Of Creation.

First Skrying Attempt

Yesterday evening, my internet service provider was down all night, so around 9:00PM I attempted my first skrying ritual by candlelight. Wearing my Jewitch pentacle, after a few minutes of staring into the water contained within a complelely black bowl, this is what I saw:

A finger of white smoke-like mist came from the top left edge of the circle forming the bottom of the bowl. Then the entire circular bottom of the bowl became full of this smoke-like mist.

It transformed into what appeared to be the head and top part of a person holding his/her hands/palms up at the sides like scales as if balancing something. The scales were equally balanced.
