Opening the Gates to the Mysteries

Life is a series of great mysteries.
How do we begin as a spark of light and become a human that grew into being inside another human?
How can we tell a house is our future home just on feeling?
How can we tell the intelligence of animals by the depth we see in their eyes?
Great mysteries surround us always.
So what is it that we seek when we venture into the unknown, the mysterious void that beckons us?
Trusting nothing but a feeling within, we bravely follow the knowing within us along a winding path of chaos, beauty, joy and challenge, calling it life.
With an inner compass in our hearts we trust that everything will eventually take us where we asked to go, even though we don't really know what we asked in the first place. Or if the vision was clear when it was seeded, the outcome is so very different. And so are we.
We move forward because we are being guided by our Soul - the essence of who we are, where wisdom and divine knowing is a part of us. The Soul gives the compass a direction.
When we take time to get beneath the questions, the experiences, the chaos and confusion, we meet the quiet realm of Soul, our gateway to the quietness of the divine.
The sanctuary where we harness joy, love, beauty and radiate it into our worlds.
Our ancestors sought answers just as we did, they created maps, treatises, and passed down rites and knowledge verbally to uphold the connection with the divine that they created and maintained.
Every ancient civilisation that left their mark on the Earth did so with visual clues of how to connect and co-create with more than just one another. They knew how to navigate life with nothing but a compass in their hearts and a fearlessness of the unknown.
Where can we connect with the wisdom left for us to remember?
How do we learn to apply cosmic law and ancient wisdom to a modern way of living?
We begin by seeing what we have, that they had. Our Sacred Vessel.
Each of us a human being, a sacred geometry unique from one another, birthed from the genesis of stars, sparked into form to Be, Live, Love, Feel.
To be the flesh of the gods, to let the Divine live through us so that the Divine can Feel, Live,Love.
The way we seek the answers to the mysteries, is to become the mystery.
To see that the path which spirals, breaks, dissolves, remembers, reforms - is the answer.
To see that what we are actually seeking is the sanctuary within which is our vessel for navigating such unknown waters.
I have lived through such mysteries, as have you.
Yet initially we were navigating them without the awareness of our sanctuary or our compass.
We spiralled and spiralled, feeling the cyclical cosmic nature as a labyrinth, a dam, a "tower moment".
Because the first mystery to uncover is the rhythmic nature of the cosmos and where it appears in our lives.
The Spiralling, cyclical path.
Seasons, moons, years, days, breaths, lives - they share a beginning, a peak, a harvesting spell, and an end.
Then the spiral begins again.
Why a spiral and not a loop?
Because, each spiral bears fruit, growth, wisdom.
We never begin anew from the same place.
We expand into deeper knowing, lived experience of the sublime mysteries in our DNA - slowly our experience and knowledge becomes our wisdom.
We remember.
We remember who we are, where we belong.
Where our sanctuary is, and how to listen to our inner compass.
We are more equipped for the next spiral round.
We hold all of this wisdom within us, we are all created from the same cosmic dust, we all have a soul and our souls have ethereal threads that weave together a wonderful tapestry of divine-human creation.
As we bravely agree to follow the living mysteries, we unravel the cosmic mysteries, and come closer to the Divine.
We live our lives as sacred, through seeing the mysteries around us as the divine expressions they truly are - the sacred keys to knowing who we are and how to remember our divinity, our purpose and our soul-filled potential.
When the next spiral round appears, we are equipped with more wisdom and a clearer echo chamber inside to hear the soul and its compass, as we embark on the next great voyage.
Wherever you are on your sacred journey, no matter the keys you've discovered, or the wisdom you have gained, one thing can always be certain....there is always another mystery to unravel.
Yet now, you have tasted each step, felt each delivery so the call to follow the soul into the depths becomes less unknown.
What you discover each time you journey round the spiral of your very own creation is that you become closer to the Divine.
Sometimes you simply see what was there all along. You. the You that has always been, that was buried below the stories, perceptions and weight of life.
How can you go back to an older version of yourself once you discover who you are?
Then, suddenly, you awaken to the wisdom that your mastery, your abilities, your gifts of being a soul in a sacred vessel are all you need to know.
You begin to move through life as the observer, the eagle eyed spirit watching your life through a purer lens.
The spiral of life stops feeling like a tornado, you make a choice to stand in the centre of the swirling winds of your life and take flight into the air streams that carry you where your compass leads you for the deepest growth and more revealing of your divine self.
You see that life is the school of the Great Mystery. You notice you have educated yourself through practical application, learning from others and your experiences, sharing your wisdom to help others when your spirals merge. You are the student and the teacher.
The Sacred Vessel is our body, our house of education. With many gates to walk through, each one a gentle separation to give a clearer feeling into certain aspects and qualities of life and how we interact with them.
The centres. Or, known to most as chakras, are our gateways.
Each spiral into the mysteries helps to reshape who we are, our centres included. We unlock a deeper chamber of each of our centres every time we grow in awareness.
The miraculous energetic resonance we radiate and transmit shifts most when we discover the truth behind one of our mysteries.
Our energetic make-up is our real skeleton, the real 'bones' of who we are. Our resonance, where we feel most connected to the Divine.
It is within the etheric realms of the human energy field that we can sense all energies that flow in and out, receive and transmit.
The etheric body touches the physical, mental and emotional planes of our Sacred Vessel, and it touches the ethers that are beyond our personal fields. The web that weaves us to the greater web.
After a certain length of spirals round the mysteries you discover the language of the etheric body and the Soul. You begin to know your own energetic language.
The teacher and student become the Sage, the Seer, the Priestess.
All within.
All connected to the wise ones of the greater webs.
The ascended masters, the gods and goddesses, the dragons, angelic ones, the infinite realms unseen.
We realise that walking through the gates of the mysteries is a co-creation.
A Sacred task taken on for the evolution of all beings within the cosmos.
Walking the Mysteries is an unknown path.
Yet walking it somehow fills every void within us that we have ever felt as empty.

If you are on the threshold of your next voyage into the deeper mysteries of life and cosmos I am opening a dedicated container for a group of us to navigate the next spiral together.
The Path of the Lotus Mystery School.
The first spiral through the Mystery School is the Sacred Vessel 'Know Thyself'.
We will take an Esoteric dive into the centres - beginning with our sacred vessel, yet deepening into the layers of our being.
Discovering the wisdom in our centres, cells and fields.
Whilst also meeting guides and deities of ancient lands who we will learn from.
So here is a heart-felt invitation into the Mystery School with me.
A seven-month spiral through the ancient gateways of your Sacred Vessel.
Each month, we step through a gate - one of the centres, or chakras.
We journey not to escape life, but to see it clearly.
To root, to listen, to restore.
To walk with our inner compass lit.
To become students of the Great Mystery together - awake, embodied, wise.
To weave a divine tapestry we can leave for our children's, children.
To turn our lives into paths of living devotion.
A sacred remembering.
A return.
If this invitation stirs something in your soul - a whisper, a knowing, a heart-felt breath - you are warmly welcomed to enter.
Class begins Friday 26th September 2025
