The circle is closed.

It is now a few days since our last ritual, we have made three ceremonies since I last wrote. After a week of resting, reconsidering, recreating the space we needed to proceed, the final work seemed to be over relatively quickly.

Our fifth ceremony took place last saturday, and was a ritual for the medicines of both San Pedro and Ayahuasca. On the following tuesday we walked to the waterfall called Los Leones, the Lions, and made a ritual with San Pedro, and the closing of the circle was that night with the mother Ayahuasca in the traditional site at Valentin's house in the mountains in Tabay.

So much has happened in that time that I am finding it hard to write of individual moments, there have been so many illuminating experiences in these final ceremonies. Imagine a wave of consciousness carrying you for 30 days through the entire visionary and emotional spectrum of these indigenous story telling medicines, and you can imagine the level of deconstruction, the nature of information, the velocity of expansion that has delivered an unknowable ambience to our very blood, our cells, our neural pathways and beyond. Yeah, Buzz Lightyear.

In this materialisation of the magical dance, as light moves over dark, are all its histrionics - the psychodelic wheeling of both visions and hallucinations bringing both ancestors and demons across the earth and skies to reconcile in the domain so meticulously held by Valentin's invocations to Nri Shringam Dev, and Shivas pantheon of illuminati. We have stood up and been surrounded by the indigenous warriors of the earth, and shed painful tears into the ground for all of us who know how sorry we should be.

From us all to the Mother Earth, we are so sorry.

In my personal battles through the last ceremonies, I have purged deeply and relieved my body of the energies of my past addictions and the energetic structures that are imbibed along with those un-inspirational drugs. The exorcism of an entity known to the Indians, in its translation, as The Demon of the White Bone, will be a moment of healing that I will never forget. Appearing as an over-electric blue and bilious green disincarnate waster, it fought hard, for some hours, to find refuge in my convulsing inner organs and joints. It hit me hard, at times ruling my form, nearly dislocating my jaws and feeling like peeling the skin back from my face. It ultimately left defeated, appearing as a solitary whorl in a puff of white dusty cloud. Hard night.

But of it all, this must be said.......

Shiva, ( 6 ) my dear friend Simon, has brought, in our time, a gift so rare that only faith will enhance its capacity. His work with me that night and in the space he has held in our month in circle, is literally of another universe. Lists of superlatives could litter the page here, and all miss their mark, and no doubt cause much embarrassment to this maestro of the unimaginable. I have learnt not to ask many questions, and for that I have been shown, with the gracious permission of 6, fields of information through the eyes of his seemingly indominable spectrums of influence. Words, in the languages we are restricting ourselves to, wont allow us any further than this.

From us and the Mother Earth to 6... Thank you brother, Ahom.

Well, of course its not all battles, some of our experiences are of the most extraordinary bliss, though here I will not attempt to share the rest. I will tell you about it when I see you.

In their blessing of our adventures, the spirits of the sacred animals of the South America have often been with me to show me how to best use the gifts that I have been given. As an energetic healer, I know what I have to do, and I am more than excited about creating the space with 6, Deb and Kerry in the coming times.

If any successful navigation is to be made through the encroaching wisdom of the End Time, then surely it will take devotion. In his permanent communion with his God, and his willingness to share the perceptions accorded to him through nearly 30 years of exploring the Shamanic Ecstacy of Consciousness, Valentin Hampejs, the man, the shaman, the story teller, the healer and the hero is, if he is any of this, the devotee. To me, his biggest gift was the lessons in Faith. Perhaps it was not how he would have me receive it, but then that is the point. Even he has to trust that others can understand the same ideologies and principles in another tongue, another set of dimensional plots, graphs and numbers. Through the teachings of this greatly humble man, I have been reminded deeply that in all the power available through the hands of humanity, it all belongs to God. In our faith in God we find peace. We are but servants to the the Divine Wisdom of The Nature of Things. All that we can contribute to the world, to the universe, to it all, is Goodwill.

Thankyou Valentin, what you have opened here will be nurtured and shared in the truly sacred and honourable way that you have taught us. As an initiation into the Shamanic Medicines, my time with you has proven to be a lynchpin for the holding of safe and protected spaces in which the four of us will continue to work toward the sharing and healing and awakening of many.

From Christopher, Lakshmi, Durga and Shiva.. muchas gracias hermano, Aho Metukuye Oyasin. To your beautiful family, Edna, Manuella and Sebastian, Alexandro and Emanuelle and we send our deepest wishes for happiness and the safe and easy return to Ecuador. Ahom.

So finally to you all, thankyou for the support you have sent and the way that you have been in your lives. There are many teachings to be found in our world, and so it is with the utmost of humility that I offer this instruction I received from Mescalito at ther Waterfall of Los Leones...

The sacred transmissions that are permeating new portals around the globe are not for the prisons of dogma, nor for the promulgation of the fear mankind already has of itself. Now is an end time for the salvation of the spirits of all sentient beings, and it is moving with increasing velocity. All information that you have known can be treated with suspision, there are new maps, new grids, new poles arriving at the horizon. Lead yourself there, trust yourself if others follow.

Peace and Goodwill on Earth

Aho Metukuye Oyasin
