Across The Ages

“I am one who is witnessing the magical motion of the spiral through the greater and lesser cycles of time. In this timeless space, I am free”

Revisiting SoulCollage© Cards through the lens of Aura-Soma©

It’s been very rewarding  to look back through my SoulCollage®  cards and in retrospect visit the color correspondences of Aura-Soma®  together with my original I Am One Who’s…

(if you are reading about the SoulCollage®  and Aura-Soma®  connection for the first time please see additional writings by clicking HERE.)

Several weeks ago I drew a card for my daily practice draw called Butterfly Warrior that was originally created at my SoulCollage® Facilitators training in August 2010, and posted here on this blog in October 2010. It speaks about a very intense yet freeing journey of the Heart that has been a significant part of my life.

“I am one who emerges from a powerful

storm transformed having witnessed in the stillness at the eye”

Looking through the lens of Aura-Soma®  in August 2012, I chose 4 bottles for this card:

B100, B89, B55, B83

B100 Archangel  Metraton is the most prominent.   

Main Theme: The light coming into the shadow

Affirmation: I see all things as they are

“Connecting with what brings the possibility of wholeness from the depths of our being to alleviate suffering”

B89: Energy Rescue  

Tarot Correspondence: Return Journey of Strength

Affirmation: I am open to see the creativity in all aspects of life that present themselves to me

“A new window or portal; time-shift; gateway to a new understanding, a new possibility for enthusiastic well-being”

B55: The Christ

Tarot Correspondence: 10 of Swords

Affirmation: I awaken to the mystery of the body as love

“The energy to work with and for the light, Awakening to and Grounding the light within. The opportunity to see purpose”

B83 – Open Sesame

Turquoise and Gold 

Tarot Correspondence: Return Journey of the Hierophant

Affirmation: I am open to the wisdom that is revealing itself to me that I may share it from my heart

I open myself to the deepest joy so that I may share it with others

“The depths of wisdom expressed in a new way. Wisdom communicated through the feeling side of being. Old wine in new skins“

I am going to focus here on the last bottle, B83,  and its significance in the card and in my life. This color combination is found on the butterfly’s wings as it flies to freedom. Although only a small amount of this is showing , it feels extremely significant to the story and in its placement…and for the future

This is how I am choosing to work with color; by following my inner prompts as to what to use and when…

As I contemplate the many doors that have opened to me (open sesame) and the many things I’ve learned that I feel prompted to share I smile at the connection and realize that there is no turning back.

The Butterfly suggests that as well as it is a living creature whose DNA is actually altered through its phases of development.

The Journey into the eye of a powerful storm has brought me to a different place; a portal to a new understanding (B89) and has shined light into the shadows creating a new dawn in the inner world (B100).  I had been filled with renewed energy and have found purpose (B55)…and as I  share from the heart, many new doors have opened and are continuing to opening to me (B83)..

Venus: Creative Transformation and the Blending of Divine Masculine and Feminine

Actualizing the Potential for Individuation in Harmony with our Divine Purpose:

Venus is to the Earth what the Soul is to the Personality

June 5 (and 6 depending on where you reside) is the first day of Venus’s pass over the face of the Sun (the phenomena is called an occultation) Occultation’s occur in 2 parts (8 years apart) and the entire cycle of 2 parts have many years between them. The 1st part of this same cycle took place in June 2004. An Occultation of Venus and the Sun occurred before this in 1874 and 1882.

The zodiac sign this Occultation occurs in is Gemini, of which Venus is the Soul-Centered Ruler. It is said in the system of soul-centered (esoteric) astrology that Gemini changes, mutates and adjusts everything that is necessary for the evolution of the Soul, both individually and collectively (and indeed the two are related).

Gemini and Venus rule the Rainbow Bridge (antakarana), the vehicle through which the conscious connection of Soul and Personality occurs. In Gemini comes the awareness (Mercury, personality ruler) of the pairs of opposites that seek to blend harmoniously through the energies of Venus. Sun and Venus personify energetically the faces of Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine Archetypes as seen in the Major Arcana card of the Tarot “The Lovers”, linked with the sign Gemini.

Venus turned retrograde on May 15 at 23 Gemini 59.  Venus remains retrograde through June 27. The retrograde cycle of Venus (ruling Taurus and Libra on a personality level) directs the planetary energy within and often urges us to re-evaluate the nature of our relationships and our values. This includes all types relationships with people and also with our work, with money and possessions and our relationship with ourselves). Each individual alive will have a different focus and will be working through their own life issues and growing realizations.


It is the sincere inquiry and evaluation of what we see and find within that invokes the Soul level expression of Venus to acknowledge, accept, harmonize , and blend the existing duality in our lives. How do we become a truer expression of our inner life on the outside? How do we follow best the dictates of our own Hearts? Does the energy we expend in life reflect our values? Do our possessions and how we use them reflect our values? Do our relationships support our continued growth? What kind of relationship do we have with ourselves? How do we love ourselves and others unconditionally? These are some of the questions we might be asking ourselves and concepts that may be presented to us through situations in our lives. Collectively speaking what each one of us does to increase our consciousness and collapse duality has an effect on all of humanity. Venus in Gemini on a soul level sees the greater purpose behind any relationship.

June 5, 2012 is also Day of Yellow Galactic (8) Star according to the system of Dreamspell.

Yellow Galactic Star

I harmonize in order to beautify
Modeling art
I seal the store of elegance
With the galactic tone of integrity
I am guided by the power of free will

To me these 2 are linked (Venus/Sun Occultation and Yellow Galactic Star) through the 5 pointed Star that connects Yellow Star as Mayan Daykeeper and the Star (17) as Tarot Archetype traditionally linked with the sign of Aquarius (which is a sign on the 5th ray of Concrete Knowledge and Science) and sign of the “New Age”. Venus is also a 5th ray planet. Venus (in the Dreamspell system) is linked with Yellow Star. Yellow Star is the 8th Mayan Daykeeper. (1+7 =8)

The Five pointed star is also suggested to be linked with humanity becoming all we can be (consciously linking the Incarnational Star and the Soul Star within our subtle anatomy) to the Sacred Geometry of the Cosmos. {I’m imagining here the famous image created by Leonardo DaVinci}. The 8 year cycle of Venus, in addition, traces a five pointed star in the sky with its orbit.


And speaking of Stars, in the system of Aura-Soma®, Bottle 95, Archangel Gabriel (also called the Return Journey of the Star – return indicating the inner Journey) combines the colors designated by this system for the Incarnational Star (Gold) and the Soul Star (Magenta). The bottom section of an Aura-Soma® Bottle indicates a Soul Talent (conscious or not) While the upper fraction indicates a personality talent that supports the Soul and is a vehicle for the Soul Talent to express through. In bottle 95, the bottom fraction is Gold and indicating a Soul Talent of the ability to teach others to connect with their Inner Wisdom, and Magenta as a Personality talent is a vehicle for Grace to come through. In other words, I believe Archangel Gabriel is speaking to us now as Grace-Filled (Venus) messenger from the Stars, urging us to get in touch with our true purpose (Inner Gold/Sun) if we have not already. Now is the Time!

Archangel Gabriel - The Return Journey of the Star

Bottle 95 = 9+5 = 14 = 1+4 = 5

So what does this all mean?

As we straddle the cusps of the ages of Pisces/Virgo and Aquarius/Leo the Star symbol is particularly potent. Within each and every one of us lie that Star of Inner Awakening that links us to the Cosmos. The energies of this time are creating numerous gates and thresholds of opportunity whereby we can discover a greater sense of purpose and meaning in our lives and live inspired in a whole new way; the Art of Living!

Harmony and the Beauty Way can be ours if this is what we choose. December 21, 2012, marks the closing of a Cycle and the beginning of the new, according to the Mayan's. The return of both Quetzalcoatl (and his much less spoken about twin sister Quetzalpetlatl) harmoniously linked and rising in equality marks the turning of the wheel.

The Alignment of the Earth, Sun and Venus at this time is a powerful opening toward that new beginning and in reality a vibrational shift. Let us open our Hearts to the new day dawning and become the shining stars that we are!

"I think of Living as the process of painting a masterpiece: every breath, experience, and intention adds to the beauty of my blank canvas. The vibrancy of the colors of life are evident when I cherish myself unconditionally." ~The Nature of Infinite Love and Gratitude

Thanks, Sara, for sharing your amazing cards and IAOW's!!

Am I one who is sleep-walking through life? I don’t want to be.

I am one who wants to keep my eyes wide open and experience

the vibrant colors of my true authentic self. It is when I try to walk

in someone else’s shoes that I feel “strapped” in a confined space

unable to flip flop through each day. I am one who needs

a lot of wiggle room.

I am one who has lived a life predominantly shaped and

influenced by Art. The world is a colorful palette.

Everywhere I look I am inspired. When I am one within

my personal space I am inspired by the art that is Me.

When I look out the window I am inspired by the art of the world.

All the world is Art. I am one who is colorful, bright, vibrant,

intense, imaginative, creative, and moving art.

Wildflower Portal - Happy Red Earth Day

There are portals everywhere if we are open to seeing them -
open to a less overt path.



“ I am one who is opening to the magic of being vulnerable, trusting and allowing doorways to the infinite to become visible to me.

As I dance with veil drawn back I am informed by intuition, supported by Universal Life Force and held in Love by Earth Mother. I am a wild flower, delicate and strong.”

Dreamspell Day of Red Solar Earth

A Prayer

On February 26th, 2012, I created a SoulCollage card that I randomly chose today (March 29) as the card for my daily practice. As I reflected upon the card today it spoke to me (and had not previously in words) through an I Am One Who statement

~A Prayer

I am one who is witnessing the majesty of Universal Fire being received into the gentle yet strong arms of Goddess. This powerful alliance has the potential to harness the depths of emotion for the greater good.

I turn my prayers from those of asking for forgiveness for my transgressions to those of gratitude for all that has been given to me/us.

My devotion and focus turns to Passion and Loving more completely beginning with myself. As I do, I honor my own ebb and flow, and the ebb and flow of others gleaning a deeper understanding of the ebb and flow of the Ages.

As I become more aware of the wisdom painstakingly painted and lovingly woven into the ever-evolving landscape, I have greater access to that which is inherent within me. I Am/We Are threads in this fine design, a Sea of Suns shining brightly. Out of my/our chaos arises a new order; each dawn is a miracle of new Life.

May we all Realize and Radiate our True Natures

In La'Kech
