Alchemy Z ~ Waking Within Blog

Dear Friends, It have been a fun and abundant summer. You may have noticed that our meetup.com/alchemy group schedule has grown full and furthermore my own schedule is left with sparse sections of time for myself. Although, I am fully present everyday, creating something new and revealing something old and alchemical to my friends or students. I have being reading novels, learning languages, and studying reference manuals vigorously everyday...except for that delicate time of balance and discovery when I am on the road traveling the coast of California or the Spiritual South-west (without A/C in my car mind you!). I hope to release more tales of my understanding, awareness, and travels this summer and very soon. Know that I am working intensely on an awareness I have never had before, maybe something that only a few have ever had. I don't remember my childhood (it's a haze between doses of ADD medicine) but every time I set out on the road, I fun myself reaching into the dark v...

Dear Friends, We are so very happy as our community expands and the feeling of separation from "all that is," retreats.

Dear Friends, It has bee more than a month but I still remember the vision and the emotion to follow with supreme clarity. I am so grateful, and I am found in this world and I know my tribe with clarity of love and heart as all of my being pours out of my chest into the arms of the beloved. It was on the Friday after New Years day (western) sometime around midnight and I was sharing the evening with my beloved Kunti and listening to Snatam Kaur at my brother Dave's house in Cardiff, CA. I had a vision of Egypt...and I started crying but not in a controlled way...just water pouring out of my eyes and energy of love pouring out of my heartspace. I saw my chest open up and send light up to God and almost instantly light returned from the heavens to snuggle and nest in my heartspace. I cried and Snatam sang... "I bow my head to God. And God took all of me. Every imperfection - God took all of me. And every day God lives And breathes Through me Oh, my Beloved! Kindness of the heart...

Dear Readers, This is an interesting subject as many of our community members have been with us for more than two years now and have likely noticed some name changes or at least spelling changes among members. Has anyone noticed that these occurrences are rather frequent or at least fairly predictable? The latest name change (spelling) was our director for Waking Within Yoga and community member Trevahr (formerly Trevor Ryan). There are several reasons for these changes and will elaborate on a few person specific ones and then further explain astrological and numerological reasoning: Trevahr (or sometimes Trevaar) is an Egyptian name. Trevor is an angelo-saxon word or name referring to "settlement" or "large static community," just as Trevahr also refers to "settling or grounding with others." Both of these name are powerful names for business and community as you may or may not have noticed in the tendancies of the "trevors" around you in yo...

In the fall of 2008, I was feeling as whipped by storms – in my case, emotional storms -- as the coastal pine trees that surrounded me on Neptune Ave near the shores of Leucadia's Stone Steps beach. Barely aware of my environment as I struggled inwardly, I brushed away the spirit tears that dropped from the pine needles above me. My business partners' voice rang clearly through my cell, "For you, Trevor, regeneration is defined as a loss of your old path, and the spontaneous fulfillment of the void created in that loss through a new inspired idea." . The pine needles were dripping with water as if the tree itself were a rogue cloud. My business partners' voice rang clearly through my cell, "For you, Trevor, regeneration is defined as a loss of your old path, and the spontaneous fulfillment of the void created in that loss through a new inspired idea." Like all new beginnings, this one started with an end. An end to former beliefs as my true path beca...

We are packing up for this Weekend's retreat to Mammoth Mountain, the first of many more Donation Based spiritual retreats.
