Mount Etna

As it has happened to me many times before, I realised a little while before going on this trip that there was something for me to do whilst I was there, and as always until the last minute I had absolutely no idea what it was.

Today was no different, I knew that I was going to Mount Etna, one of the most active volcanoes in the world, but I had no clue what I was going to be asked to do.

A few days ago before I left England I tuned in and received the information of exactly what I had to take with me for Etna. It was very specific with the exact crystals to be left on the volcano, the crystal skull who wanted to accompany me (the star being one on the “Air” card in my Wisdom from the Crystal Skulls deck), my newest essence from PipEssence “Star Vibrations”, and a little piece of meteorite, as well as a couple more bits and pieces, like my crystal skulls oracle card deck Wisdom from the Crystal Skulls.

So at 4am this morning when I woke up and couldn’t sleep, I knew that they were preparing me for what was to come. I couldn’t settle, my body was really fizzy and agitated. I could have got up and gone there and then, I was so wide awake, but I waited until dawn was just breaking to get up and sit outside to tune in and draw the cards that were to support the little expedition.

I have attached the photo of the cards. They told me to draw them then, because I wouldn’t be able to get the cards out on Etna, I just had to have them all in my rucksack with me but the spread couldn’t be done there. There would be too many people visiting, so my bit of work would have to be done fast. So I was to start a few miles away in Taormina at dawn and lay the foundations.

The cards were really important because they told me what it was all about. I was to realise that the volcano brought the four elements together. Air was shown by the skull which is the Air card in the deck, and the three cards of Water, Fire and Earth (represented by the mineral kingdom card because the earth in this part of the volcano is like a mineral with the lava covering so much of the surface of the volcano). The Water is right at the foot of the volcano, almost as if it is dipping its feet in the sea, and the fire is obvious with the lava bubbling inside the chambers so close to the surface. For the air, it was representing all the gases coming out in smoke rings, etc that were constantly coming out of the volcano. So the volcano was holding the four elements within. I had to honour this when I went and acknowledge the importance of the four elements in this very precise location of the globe.

Then the other cards were very significant, the Star Brothers and Sisters card as well as the Golden Ray. Although I have no idea if this volcano is a stargate/starportal, it felt like this was the “mission” for lack of a better word, in connecting this powerful and very lively energetic place on the Earth grid, which is constantly changing and evolving, as it is collapsing and growing and erupting and new craters are forming, all the time, with the stars above and receiving the Golden Ray codes.

So it felt that this mission was about seeing the state of the connection to the stars through the volcano and bringing through anything that could help the earth crystalline grid below with the Golden Rays to be anchored and to clear any pathways of the grid. When I was on the volcano, the sun was so bright in the bluest of skies, it felt like like the golden rays were being carried by the sun in the most powerful of ways down into the earth through the volcano's mouth.

The four cards in the four corners of the grid were there to show us that when the four elements are in balance, when we have a strong connection with As Above (with our Star Brothers and Sisters, the Central Sun and the Golden Rays) and So Below the connection to Gaia, to the depth of the Earth where the volcano draws its power and strength from, there can be Peace and Self Love on Earth, but this cannot be happening by giving our power away (hence the Roar like a Lion card) and in fact where I stood to do my little mission/ceremony was just above the Lion valley (one of the sides of the volcano, which I found amusing), and that we are protected by the Guardian Dragon (here the Etna Matriach, in Avebury, the Avebury Dragon).

The dragons have made their presence strongly felt over the past few days, starting on my way over to Sicily when I was flying. I channelled a poem about the dragons and the volcano in the flight that must have been to prepare the ground as it is. I felt that the volcano had one main dragon as its keeper and that this dragon was very fiercely protective, one not to mess with, but that would do anything for those she accepted.

Anyway, I am digressing.... I was shown again to use the Star Vibrations essence from PipEssence early in the morning during the card reading, and that I then would have to use it on the volcano, which I did several times to anchor in the Star frequencies into the Earth.

We made our way to Etna and decided to go to the less touristy side (the north side) to try to have a quieter time at the top. As it is mandatory, we had to join a group in a big 4x4 to the highest point you could reach by vehicle, at 2800m . (No one is allowed to go up to the top of Etna without a guide because it is an active volcano). We had an amazing view of the tallest point where the rings of smoke were coming out, but sadly couldn’t climb right up to it.

As we were part of a group of about 30 people and had to keep moving with the group, I was only able to snatch a few precious minutes of nearly quiet time, tucked tightly behind a lava rock, out of the wind, as it was so windy and chilly up there. There, in those precious minutes I connected in with the volcano, acknowledge the four elements, and anchored my energy deep into the Earth, in order to reach for the stars above, thanks to my clear quartz crystal skull which acted as a powerful portal. I left some Amethyst stones that I had been told had to be buried there, in two places and said some words that had been channelled by a dear friend of mine who has a strong connection to the dragon of Etna. I repeated them several times in both places and was then told, it is done! Just like a whirlwind, the codes had come in, been anchored, and it was done, it was done, it was done. As this unfolded I felt the presence of the dragon hovering above the open bit where the smoke was coming out of. I thought I was imagining it, but there was a gratitude that came with it that was so palpable that it really shook me.

That’s it. Here are a few photos for you to receive whatever you can from the images in terms of codes, frequencies, light, love, peace, self love, roaring like a lion. I don't think my words are truly able to convey properly the extent of what I experienced, but I hope that somehow this post will be encoded with the frequencies that need to be transmitted. I honestly trust that it will, because that is totally out of my hands and in the hands of the "gods". It truly was quite breathtaking in a “landing on the moon” kind of way, on Etna today, so I hope you will enjoy the pictures.

Much love and gratitude for reading this very long post. Sorry, but I know that some of you enjoy my crazy little adventures, so I think it is important to share them if you enjoy absorbing the energies. xxxx
