Happy New Year!
The simplicity of our interconnection is boggling to the ordinary mind. We can make it so complicated. We have all been searching at one time or another and when we begin to come into Unity Consciousness we realise that the connection is found in the simplicity…. And that simplicity is found in the open heart.  “The Diamond in your Pocket”, as Gungaji would say. 
For those who are disconnected, life can be a struggle. The grid connections are becoming instrumental in my practice of Spiritual midwifery. When someone arrives at my door, who is lost, I don’t have all the answers (they do) but the methods I use can be instrumental in reconnecting an individual who has not yet learned the simplicity of sitting in stillness.  

We are all ascended beings … because you are here, you are ascended. There is no discrimination in enlightenment. Just the sun shines on everyone, so does the light of our ascended self. It is our personal choice as to whether we sit in the shade or come out into the light.

The interconnection is the thread, which leads those who are lost… home. We will all find our way home... we just have to say "YES!".

Simplicity and elegance will be the lesson of the collective for 2009.

I wish you a year of peace, joy, love, laughter and prosperity.
En Lakesh,

Barbara

Axiatonal Alignment Therapy Background Information :
Axiatonal Alignment is more than a healing modality it is an initiation into Divine Awareness. As a healing modality it opens blocked meridians to allow the free flow of energies that may have been trapped due to our resistant or denial of a spiritual experience (every experience is a Spiritual Experience). As we open to the free flow of energy, we will release all cellular memories that we have been afraid to look at. This may result in memory flashbacks, so we can look at these moments from a different prospective. We may see that our judgment of these moments come from a distorted prospective and by looking at these experiences in a new light we can let go of what may be a distorted judgement. When this happens a healing happens at the cause level.

Throughout this Universe, all the Galaxies, our Solar System, our Planet and our bodies are Axiatonal lines. These Axiatonal Lines interconnect all things with Divinity. At a point in time, we humans chose to separate from our Divine Source. This damaged the Axiatonal Lines which prevented us from reconnecting to our Divine Source. Priests in the Order of Melchizedek have been working with Axiatonal Alignment to reconnect beings to the Divine Source before the first human ever walked on Mother Earth. Axiatonal Alignment will assist you to remember your Divine connection. The points that are lightly touched on the body are all the connecting points of the

Tree of Life

Things clients have experienced with this healing modality: deep profound relaxation, a sense of total peace within the body, a "lightness" as if all the weight of the world has been lifted from you, balancing of the male and female sides of the body, more focused, highly motivated, deep concentration, dreams clearer and more vivid- answers to problems being given in dreams, memory flashbacks, can be used alone or combined with any other healing therapy (when placed in front of any other healing modality takes that therapy into a deeper level), feeling a connection to the "ALL". Changes the lives of all that experience it... to experience this therapy once is to be a believer...

The Axiatonal Lines: The Axiatonal Alignment is a very subtle grid of light that is infinite in nature. It is the perfect blue print behind the severed, stained and distorted acupuncture grid and its meridians. Through the Axiatonal Alignment, on very subtle levels, the early instrument (human body) is re-aligned, reconnected and activated.

What does it mean for the average person or what it means to be connected to your "Overself"? It means something different for everyone, as we are all unique in our own way. It could be a simple as being more aware of your surroundings, seeing things you never saw before, feeling more attuned with the world, experiencing an increase in your senses, an enhancement of various types of initiative awareness, or feeling better physically, profound relaxation and a total sense of peace within oneself. Some people have reported an improvement of major illnesses. This is an intensive energetic technique that incorporates meridians and energy.

 Every living organism has an "axiatonal" system. Axiatonal lines control the renewing functions of our body. These lines connect with the cosmic lattice/grid that is everywhere in the Universe. When you extend the acupuncture lines of the body, and connect them to the cosmic lattice, you then align the body to the axiatonal lines of the living universe and the person's higher self.

Axiatonal is also connected to Sacred Geometry and the Star of Tetrahedron and the Star of David. At the workshop, I give you a booklet on the Sacred Geometry so you are able to read more about that, if you choose.

The word "Qabala" finds its root in the Hebrew word "Qibel" meaning to receive by oral tradition. This receiving refers to an oral tradition of esoteric or secret knowledge concerning "essentially" the mysteries of Nature, and more overtly, the hidden teachings concerning the Hebrew Torah. The Torah is, of course, the first five books of what Christians call the Old Testament, and the oldest surviving of the Judaic liturgical texts.

Meridians

 What is a meridian: acupressure vessels, or meridians, are located throughout the body. They contain a free flowing, colourless, non-cellular liquid, which is partly actuated by the heart. Meridians have been measured and mapped by modern technological methods, electronically, thematically, and radioactively. With practice they can be felt. There are specific acupuncture points along the meridian. The points are electro-magnetic in character and consist of small, oval cells called Bonham corpuscles which surround the capillaries in the skin, the blood vessels and organs through the body. There are about 500 points usually used in sequences or patterns.

We name meridians by the life function with which they seems to be associated with. Usually, the name is similar to the name of the gross organ we are familiar with. The Meridians bring energy to the major organ, glands and nerves within their zones. When there is a blockage of energy at any point in a meridian (or zone), the energy becomes unbalanced with excesses in some points and deficiencies in others, and the block results in dis-ease. Emotional, mental and spiritual dis-ease, as well as physical illness, result from a blockage of "Ki" or "Chi" to any organ or through any meridian. Axiatonal, Acupressure, Acupuncture, Shiatsu, Reiki and reflexology all work to release energy blockages in the meridians, opening a free flowing balanced energy and releasing or preventing "dis-ease".

Through understanding meridians and there relationship to the placement of all the organs, glands and nerves in the body, beginning and ending meridian points, and the ascending and descending energy flow patterns, you begin to see how Axiatonal Alignment integrates the Whole Body bringing it into balance and harmony. Each step of the three procedures first aligns the body's energy vertically, horizontally, and then finally in the last step sewing it all together, before finally giving it the delicate gift of golden light energy from the creator, into the crown Chakra, travelling through the body and reconnecting us with Mother Earth.

The book called "The Book of Knowledge: The Keys of Enoch" is a profound teaching given on seven levels "for the quickening of the People of Light". Dr. J.J. Hurtak was encoded with this information by Enoch, a great being "who works with Metatron and the other Lords in governing the lower worlds so that the truest unity and most perfect plurality of the Father's Wisdom may be bestowed." This happened while Hurtak was in his Lightbody and he published a book of this information in 1973. He writes:

"The Keys, thus, are to exemplify both the spiritual understanding and the scientific understanding that must converge if the right reality structure is to be shared by members of the human Race in taking a quantum leap forward into the New Age."

In Key 3.1.7., Hurtak writes about what Enoch told him about axiatonal lines:

There is at work within all biological systems a path of interchange ability to standardize unique vibratory levels. Our galactic body of creation controls its renewing functions through meridian axiatonal lines which are the equivalent of acupuncture lines that can connect with resonating star systems.  These axiatonal lines are not limited to a physical body or a biological creation, but are open-ended and connect the body vehicle with axiatonal lines that emanate from the various star populations. When Man can discover this connection between his life space and the axiatonal grids controlling the body through endless cell division, Man will have a new super-science known as medical astronomy. For the human body is a microcosmos or small space-time field within a larger field. If we can maintain this view, we can recognize that acupuncture is one of the first empirical demonstrations of biological scaling within the universe.

The human evolution is a "preconditioned experiment" within a world of happenstance relativity. Without higher evolutionary programming or direct programming by an Overself intelligence, the human biological system must go back into the over-all flux of Magnetic fields when the system is discorporated. When Man is directly programmed by an Overself, he is no longer kept in biochemical slavery within a three-dimensional consciousness by the "apparent realities" of the earth. In this case, the body is a grid of magnetic domains which moves between the primary blueprint of the Overself and the pattern angles of the human organs (i.e., the axial relationships). The lines which tie together these magnetic domains are the axiatonal lines. Acupuncture was cut off from the "progressive" higher star programming channels when the root races revolted against the programming of the Father. This caused the 12 biophysical meridians to be truncated from direct connection with the Overself.

The biological interconnection with the higher astronomy was lost at that time which requires the intervention of the Office of the Christ to restructure the axiatonal lines. In order to reconnect the biological interconnection with the higher energy planes serving the higher evolutionary programming, the acupuncture lines of the old program have to be attached to "new" axiatonal lines (at their intersections) if the cellular grids are to be in harmony with all physical manifestations permitted by the governing hierarchy.

The axial lines are part of a fifth-dimensional circulatory system combining color and sound, which are used to draw from the Overself body the basic energy used for the renewing functions of the human evolutionary body.

For the past 5 years my Reiki Kids materials have been sent to Reiki Masters all over the planet. It is my small contribution in assisting our children to stay awake and be co creatively empowered.

I was just watching the “Me to We “presentation on television and was given such hope. If you are not aware of this movement you can check out the details at www.metowe.org This is huge and will change things on a global level!

Assisting children to be empower and move into a heart centered involvement has been one of my main missions. The issue of bullying has become a serious concern for children these days.  We need to make sure our own children do not grow up to be bullies. We also need to be sure they have the tools and support they need if they become the victim of bullies.

Your child may be embarrassed or feel weak by admitting he or she is the victim of a bully. Signs to look for include the sudden appearance of bruises, missing belongings, or creating excuses or illness to avoid going to school.

Bullying can take many forms and often verbal harassment or threatening is often overlooked. When I was a child we used to say, “Sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” I would say this with great bravado, but inside I was hurt or perhaps humiliated by the unkind words or actions of another child. Inside hurts can be just painful as cuts and bruises. Anyone who bullies, threatens or hurts another child needs to be approached with love and a strong message that their behaviour is not appropriate. As well making sure that our own children and grandchildren do not grow up to be bullies, we need instil upon them that it is not okay to stand by and do nothing while another child is being bullied or harassed.

You can help you child by making sure that your school is supportive to your children and provides a responsible adult to report incidents to as well as a safe place to go to within the school if they need help. They should be encouraged to stand up for any child who is being bullied and given methods to assist without having to resort to violence.

One of my favourite stories of courage is about a grade nine student in a rural school in Nova Scotia, Canada, who was harassed and made fun of on the first day of school because he wore a pink shirt. He was called homosexual and six older boys threatened to beat him up simply because he wore a pink shirt. That night another boy in the same school got on the internet and asked all the kids at school to wear a pink shirt to school the next day. Then he went out and purchased 75 pink tank tops for the boys as well as pink material for armbands and headbands. He passed them out in the lobby before school and it was estimated that over half the school wore pink that day including the boy who was originally threatened. This story is a strong indication of how children can stand up for each other without perpetrating further violence.

The children who come to my Reiki Kids classes often feel isolated and different because they are sensitive and experience the world in a different way. They may be often clairvoyant or clairsentient. They love the Reiki Kids classes because they attract other children who possess similar qualities and it helps to let them know that there are other children like them.  A bully uses this sensitivity to try to disempowered these lovely children. When I am working with children I like to teach them ways of using Reiki to deal with bullying and harassment. They need to know it is okay to be different and individual so they do not shut down their ability. If they feel threatened they can visualize themselves surrounded in Reiki light. Rather than retreating or retaliating they can offer a blessing or compliment to the offender.

Children who bully often do so because they feel powerless or have been the victim of bullying themselves or witness it within their own homes. Have the child understand that someone who is mean and intimidating often does it out of their own insecurity. Sending Reiki or being nice to a bully is an unexpected way of dealing with them.

I encourage children to offer Reiki to anyone who is frightened or has been hurt. Because of bullying it is unfortunate that many schools have to implement a “Hands off” policy where any type of touch is not tolerated. Beaming Reiki or sending it with the eyes as in the Japanese Reiki method of Gyoshi-ho is a perfect solution to any hands off policy which might be in place.

In this technique you simply soften the eyes, meditate on the Reiki energy and softly gaze at the place you want to send Reiki to. Allow yourself to be relaxed and slightly defocused as you allow Reiki to flow. A few minutes of sending Reiki this way can bring a large amount of comfort to the person who is receiving it. The other benefit is that the sender also feels better. When we are able to assist with Reiki we do not feel helpless. It is a very empowering feeling to be able to do something, which is helpful and non invasive.

In the past, Reiki Teachers have given their students stern warnings about sending Reiki without permission. First of all I feel it is important not to touch another person without asking for permission, but when we send Reiki and are not touching it is like sending that person a special prayer. I do not call someone to ask permission when I say a prayer for them and I feel sending Reiki is very similar to sending a prayer. Every individual has free will and will receive only what they choose to. It is the same with Reiki. If a person wants it, they will receive it. If they are not receiving it, I usually just get bored and stop doing it. You cannot impose upon or harm another person with an energy which causes no harm.

Bullies often feel powerless or have been the victim of bullying themselves or witness it within their own homes. Have the child understand that someone who is mean and intimidating often does it out of their own insecurity and fear. While they may have developed many ways to intimidate another person, it is usually because they feel unloved and lack self esteem. Being nice to a bully is an unexpected way of dealing with them and there is a good chance they will respond to people in a kinder way if they are treated with compassion.

Situations where a child is bullied and feels powerless would be to encourage the child to send Reiki to the bully. They may be reluctant and question why they should send Reiki to someone who is being cruel to them, but if they can be convinced to do it they will be pleasantly surprised at how it will shift the energy between them and the perpetrator. A creative way to use Reiki would be to have the child create a drawing of the bully and themselves in a more positive relationship and have them bean Reiki to the picture they have drawn.

Teach your child tolerance, equality and friendship among all people regardless of any differences they have. If children understand the value of individuality they will not be controlled or intimidated by anyone trying to control them by making fun of them for being different or doing things in their own way. Give your child lots of praise and encouragement when he or she finds peaceful solutions to confrontational situations.

My son was hit in the face and had his nose broken by a bully when he was in high school. I was called to the school. I picked him up and took him to hospital where we were met by a police officer. The officer talked to my son, he let him know he had every right to have the perpetrator charged and encouraged him to do so. Later when I attended the court hearing for this boy, it came out that he already had quite a few other incidents of violence on his record. The policeman who had met us at the hospital, later told us that legally he could not tell us about the previous record but that he was glad we went ahead with the charges because this boy had been harassing and assaulting many others for a long time. He had been protected from many of these charges under the young offenders act, but now he was old enough to be criminally charged.

I remember sitting in the court room looking over at his mother. She looked so sad, disappointed and concerned for her son. I felt such compassion for her, as one mother to another. She could not even bring herself to look at me. Later that night, when my husband asked me what this kids parents looked like, I told him, “His mother looked like any other mother who was embarrassed and saddened by her son’s violent behaviour.”

My sons friends wanted to go beat-up this kid in retaliation for what he did to my son, but he convinced them it was not a good idea since it would not solve the problem. My son and I talked about how sad and lonely the boy who hit him must be and we speculated that perhaps he did this because he had experienced violence or neglect while he was growing up. Then with compassion in our hearts we sent him and his family Reiki.

Bullying is a serious matter. In a 2001 study by the Kaiser Foundation in conjunction with Nickelodeon TV network and Children Now, 86% of children ages 12–15 interviewed said they get teased or bullied at school––making bullying more prevalent than smoking, alcohol, drugs, or sex among the same age group.

An article in the Ottawa Citizen on August 28, 2008, Wendy Craig, Scientific co-director,
Promoting Relationships Eliminating Violence Network, states that, “Children and youth affected by bullying demonstrate poor attitudes, absenteeism, low grades, and high levels of drug and alcohol use. Those who bully are at risk for later criminality. Bullying should be recognized as a significant public health problem that undermines the healthy development of children and youth. Adults are responsible for the development, safety and well being of our children. This vital role requires courage, perseverance, and includes preventing bullying, and promoting healthy relationships among children and youth.”

Reiki offers many wonderful ways to empower children and their families, so that this can be solved with non-violence and constructive alternatives.  If you are a Reiki Master you might want to consider attuning your children and grandchildren to Reiki and when they are ready, teaching them how to use the Distance symbol and the Mental Emotional symbol to create a positive new behaviour.  The Mental emotional symbol balances the right and left brain replacing feelings of, anger, fear and depression with peace and harmony.

Children are born loving and innocent. We must look at the ways that we can nurture and foster compassion with this love and light we call “Reiki”.
