The Winter Solstice Issue

December, 2009

We are happy to present new articles, videos and messages for the new issue of Spirit of Ma'at.

The Final Mayan Calendar Steps to 2012

By Carl Johan Calleman

Speculation on the Mayan Calendar has us looking at it from many different angles these days. As we decide for ourselves what makes the most sense it's always good to read up on whatever we can find on the subject — as a means to inform ourselves and as a way to cross reference multiple points of view. If you're interested in these things Carl Johan Calleman's synopsis of what he knows about our entrance into the Sixth Night will give you something to reflect upon.

The Magic of the Winter Solstice

By Stephen Thomson

During the month of December, we mark the Winter solstice, by celebrating with a wide range of observances. There are traditions in just about every religious and spiritual community that reflect a celebration of light. This month Steve talks about the magic this time of year holds for each of us and the spiritual opportunities awaiting us — including the idea held in some circles that the veil between worlds is now open. This is a time for us to attune with the Cosmic Masters. Get ready to make some plans for your own celebration. It's time to tune into the incredible energy and light affecting our world.

The Doorway of the 11:11

Sent to us by Sally Conway

Sally is a local Reconnection Practitioner who stays in touch with us on a regular basis. When the following article came to her attention she was quick to pass it on. Most of us are aware of the fact that we live in times of immense change. The Doorway of the 11:11 offers an interesting perspective on the why of things — one that will inspire you to open your heart.

A Case of Misperception

A Message from Golden Wolf

This message arrived on our desk a month ago. We have lost the name of the person who sent the information, but at the time what's written here really caught our attention. In a simple and well put letter a person who calls himself Golden Wolf speaks to the need to rearrange our thinking. We have no clue who Golden Wolf is but his words definitely ring a bell — and his thoughts on what's right in front of our eyes reflect things that all of us need to be thinking about.

Alignment of Your Heart

By Phoenix Rising Star

This month Phoenix takes us from the announcement of a mathematical proof that we are all one, to understanding why this is so hard to embody. Clearing our judgments of ourselves and others is essential to embracing unity and oneness. And it's easier than you think!

From Night to Light

By Julia Griffin

One of the initiations of the soul is the journey through darkness into light. When the darkness is identified as the outer world of the ego, it is possible to connect to our inner light to find the soul's path. The recent world changes have thrown many of us into this darkness, as we experience changes in the global system and our personal lives. According to Julia at this point of emergence it doesn't work to focus too much on what's falling away. Only by relying on the light of our inner wisdom, will we find the path that will take us out of the night into the light.

Stocking Stuffer Channelings

By CC Treadway

CC's channeling abilities were tapped into something playful and child-like on the day she came up with this piece. If her memories formed the inspiration for it she took them out of the vault and asked the Spirit of Christmas to open her up to anything her guides might have to say about what happens in our hearts every year at this time. If the child in you has always felt these things, CC's messages will remind your adult self to be open to finding out just how much they mean to you.

Healing from the Bottom Up

By Norma Gentile

How does your body want to naturally connect more fully and completely with those energies from which it was born? According to Norma's channeling and intuitive connections, our physical healing comes from reconnecting with those aspects of our soul in the first and second dimension. As we do so, our body has access to those original energies from which it developed, under the guidance of our upper dimensional soul.

Vaccine Warning — Pandemic Warning

By Ken Welch

The following article was sent to us by Bill Corey. It confirms rumors that began to circulate in May 2009. We all know about the vaccine fiasco. Like everything else, there is always more to know about it. Ken Welsh seems to be tapped in to more of the whole story than anyone we've heard from so far. If you're interested in a closer look at what the CDC has up their sleeve, take the time to inform yourself and read this article.

December — Sagittarius

By Cal Garrison

The heart of the holiday season is held in the energies that are embodied by the Sagittarian archetype. If 'The Archer' holds sway over our bio-rhythms, what is it that needs to come to life in us during the month of December? The ruler of every blessing as we cross the Solstice threshold, faith is the thing that becomes more important than anything else. Excerpted from Cal Garrison's, 'Old Girls' Book of Dreams' the following words will remind you that light and faith live at the center of the Sagittarian realm.

Self Love — the Bliss of Union

By Heather Fraser

What does self-love really mean anyway? What does it actually feel like? What would our world look like if we could experience the answer to these questions and begin living from that place? Heather's article takes us on an in-depth, deeply honest, personal journey through her challenges and her ancient memories of "home" into the heart of what she remembers self-love being all about, and the kind of world that created. According to Heather, there, we were One with the fullness of our Divine Being, we were One with the true nature of our deepest Self, and it these memories that are now re-surfacing in many, that will pave the way for a new world of freedom.

What Adversity Teaches us

By Heather Fraser

Many of us are feeling the effects of the old world paradigm crumbling and falling. Many are experiencing hardships, and suffering the mental anguish of letting go, living without much, and the fear of survival. In this article, Heather inspires us with her journey through adversity, what it has meant to her, and how we can let it teach us if we would only be open to the bigger picture of it's true meaning...that of Self-Love.

What is real, What is not?

By Heather Fraser

In this article, Heather shares her insights about how we are made in the likeness of God, the One Mind, and asks the question, "If God is perfect, and God is Love, then how can there be any other Truth?" She reminds us that we cannot be anywhere except in the One Mind, and when we forget this, we will despair and we will attack. She explains that this arrogance is the denial of love, as love shares, and arrogance withholds, and as long as both appear to be desirable to us, the concept of choice or duality — the split — will remain with us. Heather lets us know that quite simply, God Is, and that in her view, there is nothing else.

Message from Matthew

By Suzanne Ward

This channeling from Matthew is an overview of what's happening on the planet right now. In it he explains aspects of the Ascension process that many of us have wondered about. In light of the different perspectives on the subject Matthew's words offer us an opportunity to weigh what he has to say against what we've heard from others and our own experience. This may not be the whole story but for the discerning mind it will certainly hold elements of Truth.

Encounters With Orbs

By Manon Tromp

Every now and then, after a photograph develops spherical balls of light show up in the snap-shot. If you've seen them you know what we're talking about. Some say that these orbs are merely 'dust particles' or they get written off as a 'digital flaw'. What's harder to explain is why these mysterious spheres of light keep showing up in photographs all over the world. Manon is deeply attuned to the invisible realms and her experience with orbs seems to indicate that they are more than just dust particles. Check out her article; it'll make you want to get out your camera and see for yourself.

Winter Solstice — The Light Within

By Jo Mooy

As we enter the coldest, darkest time of the year, those of us in the northern hemisphere wonder if the light will ever return. Knowing that it's burning brightly in other parts of the world reminds us that the darkness is a temporary thing. Where do we find the light when every appearance leads us to believe that it doesn't exist? Jo Mooy looks at that question and urges us to summon the light with a little faith and a Solstice prayer.

MODULATOR-2 Immune Modulator

The recent Swine flu outbreak got us wondering what steps we could take to avoid coming down with the deadly virus. We put a call in to our friend Jim Hessinger and he recommended that we carry "MODULATOR - 2", an immune system modulator that responds supportively to any type of attack on the immune system.
