The Awakening

  THE EMERALD AND COPPER PATH

  Unicorn led Orla back to the path, which would lead her to the penultimate Crystaland world. The path progressed from the deep coral to a rich emerald green crystal flecked with the metal copper. The terrain either side of the path reflected the colours of the path forming continuous fields of crystalline powder. The beauty of the combination of the colour of the crystal coupled with the metal was both overwhelming and intoxicating. She felt as if she wanted to run deep into the landscape, immersing herself in the richness of the colours. In the distance she saw a large beautiful pure emerald green crystal structure – the size of a castle – glistening in the dazzling light from the white sun. This was larger than the other Halls of Experience and Unicorn suggested that for this part of the journey she should ride on his back to help her adjust to the very different energy she was going to experience. He bent one of his front legs, outstretched the other, and bowed his head so that she could clutch on to his thick mane to mount his back easily. Unicorn advised her to stay on his back until she was greeted by the beings of this world. The vibration of this world was very different from the previous worlds and she needed to be introduced to it gradually.

  As they went through the entrance, she was filled with the glory and beauty of the structure of the emerald crystal forms that appeared to embrace and envelop her. Beautiful geometric shapes were carved into the high walls and ceiling of the building, but within those geometric shapes were smaller shapes made from copper. On the outside, the walls appeared as sheer as glass but internally the building was a vortex of energy radiating from the shapes engraved into the surfaces. Unicorn explained that the addition of the copper boosted and stabilised the energy of the emerald crystal and, sensing the very different atmosphere, Orla realised that, had she not been on Unicorn’s back she would have had great difficulty concentrating and would have been physically and mentally overwhelmed.

  She was eventually welcomed by incredibly beautiful crystal beings with more human form than the beings from the previous worlds. They were luminous jade green in colour, with luxuriant deep golden shining hair and eyes the colour of copper. They greeted Orla and instructed her to dismount so that she could be led around the building. She dismounted Unicorn and was guided around the walls. The beings indicated to her to touch each of the geometric shapes on the walls, and with each shape she received a feeling which was something between a mild electric shock and a pulse of warmth, but she was able to feel it in different parts of her body. Each shape seemingly connected to a specific organ of her body. Unicorn, sensing that she was beginning to feel overwhelmed by the many sensations in her body, reassured her that this was the route of initiation, which was required before going into the main chamber of the building.

  After completing a circuit of the walls, she eventually entered the vast inner chamber. The walls were sheer so that they reflected each other creating a palpable cross exchange of energy. The vibration began to work through her body so forcefully that she thought she would begin to elevate. She felt the familiar feeling of confusion and resistance whereupon Unicorn encouraged her to surrender to that feeling. As she became accustomed to the vibration, she began to move but she wasn’t walking, she looked down and saw that she was hovering just above the ground which enabled her to move with more speed. In the centre of the chamber there appeared to be a waterfall that spilled over a gigantic emerald crystal into a pool of what looked like jade liquid discharging a neon glow.

  She approached the waterfall and two female beings dressed in fine green crystalline robes, removed her cotton dress and gave her a loose robe similar to theirs that had been manufactured from the powdered emerald crystal interlaced with strands of copper. Even though the cloth of the garment was spun from crystal and metal, it was surprisingly soft, and light as the finest silk. They led her into the pool and placed her under the waterfall. To her surprise, the substance was not heavy, or wet or suffocating, it just enveloped her entire body, seeping through every pore into the deepest parts of every organ, bone and muscle, until she felt that she was glowing all over, inside and out. She had never felt so well and vibrant. She was young and had very few ailments but, like all humans, she became tired at times, mentally and physically, and the growing experience had not been without discomfort.

  When it was time, she was led out of the waterfall and was given new robes. These robes were made from the same emerald crystal and copper and were to be used whenever she went into the crystal circle on Crystal Island. The combination of wearing these robes within the crystal circle would ensure that her physical body was guaranteed continued health even though she would be exposed to high levels of pollution, both mentally and physically when she began her work. Unicorn stared at her and smiled deeply from within his heart. He could see that this world had given her the cellular strength needed for the final journey. This world held the knowledge of the regeneration for all the atoms that formed Crystaland and every cell in Orla’s body had now been energetically enhanced far beyond that of humans. With that change came subtle changes in her physical appearance.

  THE GOLDEN PATH

  Unicorn once again gathered up Orla as it was time to continue on the final journey of Crystaland and he observed her changed appearance. Like all the young royal women she had porcelain skin, hazel eyes, and dark hair. Her skin was now becoming more transparent, her eyes losing the brown of the hazel and becoming more green, and her hair had a few strands of the telltale white which came about every time a royal human body went through an initiation. She was reluctant to leave but he reassured her that, because all that she had experienced was now active in her memory, she would be able to visit the different worlds of Crystaland at anytime. With that reassurance, she happily proceeded onto the final path, which began to change the further they walked. This time the path changed to a strong golden crystal and her spirits were immediately uplifted. This was a colour that she could not comprehend. She was familiar with the precious metal gold but this was gold crystal. Not yellow, orange, or red but gold. This crystal had a depth unlike any other of the crystals she had experienced – a cross between a metal and crystal. This was the pathway to the knowledge of all beauty, the beauty of Creation, the wonder of Creation, a true reflection of the creative process. This was where all the qualities of the previous worlds came together and performed in perfect harmony.

  The terrain either side of the path was also different. Instead of one colour being the theme of this world, all the different colour crystals from all the crystal worlds were present, moving with the sound that was bouncing from the landscape. The sounds were beautiful, the shapes were amazing, the colours incredibly pure and intense. Everything was a symphony of sound, colour, shape and light. There were no discordant notes, no odd shapes, only balance. She felt an overwhelming sense of splendour and beauty, which brought the young Orla to tears of joy. “This is truly perfection” she beamed.

  She stepped off the path following Unicorn and hesitated slightly to feel the reaction of the crystals in her body, but there was no interruption, she was able to walk off the path directly onto the crystal terrain. She moved fluently through the different colours and shapes as they were not material, they were an accumulation of different levels of vibrating vortices that created the crystals.

  Each colour gave her a different sensation, different information and a different perspective. She felt every cell of her body was resonating with every vortex of the universe. She was the colours, she was the sounds, and she was the shapes. She lost touch with her own body and became part of all and everything around her. Each colour pulsated its quality into her body. She was beyond flesh and blood and had totally activated her crystal memory. She was able to communicate to all the beings from all the different worlds without words. She could move the shapes with her mind and equally, change the colours of the shapes with her mind. Her mind reached out and touched the most ancient and sacred teachings
of the universe expanding exponentially according to her increased expectation, removing any vestige of human limitation. Every part of her memory system of both mind and body had been completely reprogrammed.

  A group of beings from this world came to greet her. These were the most human looking of all the beings that she had encountered on this journey. They were statuesque, with golden hair, luminous white skin, and silver-grey eyes. They explained that they were the beings that biologically integrated with humans and stayed on Earth guiding mankind through its infancy of Crystaland evolution. Orla stared intently at these golden beings and sensed a real familiarity with them, as if she had known them all her life. Then in flash of realisation she knew that these were her ancestors. The part of them that was within her had been completely awakened and she spontaneously hugged them with a deep sense of belonging. The gift they gave Orla was a large ornate golden crystal ring, which fitted on the middle finger of her right hand. The crown of the ring had a geometrical shape carved into it, which was a graphic representation of her name and her title. This was the ring of Responsibility that all female members of the royal family received after their first initiation. With this ring she was able to access and integrate all the knowledge from all the Crystal worlds and from now on would only conduct herself with pure Crystal Wisdom. She had successfully completed the transformation – 80 per cent Crystal and 20 per cent human.

  CHAPTER THREE

  The Gifts

  By this time in her journey, Orla was feeling a stronger sense of purpose. Whilst she had been in a totally receptive mode going through the different worlds, she was now eager to move on to fully understand how those creative qualities she had experienced were translated into the Crystal Gifts that were given to mankind.

  And so, without a moment’s rest she started on the next stage of her journey. Unicorn explained that she would now discover the unique gifts that the Crystalanders had created for planet Earth so that it could once again flourish and continue on its path of transformation. He told her that she needed to experience the gifts, not just watch them on a screen, as it was the experience that triggered the awakening of the gifts in her memory. Again her journey would follow a crystal path that would walk her directly through the story of Earth’s rebirth.

  THE GIFT OF ENERGY

  She mounted her Unicorn with eagerness and the golden crystal path began to deepen in colour and eventually changed to a deep, earthy maroon crystal. Either side of the path the terrain was magnificent, rich soil, lush plants, and tall strong trees similar to those that she had seen in the Secret Garden. Orla was walking through the first years of the fruition of the gifts. The Earth looked magnificent; nature was decked out in all her finery. As they travelled on the path Unicorn continued with the story of the Crystalanders’ arrival on the planet. The Earth had settled down from its chaos and the Crystalanders recognised that the soil was suitable for adding new minerals to increase its yield. There was an abundance of water on the planet; the regular rainfall washed through the rich soil taking with it the important minerals that would find their way into the springs and rivers providing rich healing properties for human bodies and also regenerating the soil. This, coupled with the seasonal balanced climate, was a perfect formula for creative life. And so the experiment began.

  As Orla travelled along the crystal path she saw that the Crystalanders had brought their own colonisation crystals to start the reprogramming. This diamond shaped crystal, when placed in the waters, released new minerals, which then bonded with the Earth’s original minerals and formed new compounds that were to form the new life on Earth. The young princess watched as the Crystalanders appeared on her island, surprised at how primitive it looked, and to her horror, the people looked equally primitive. But the Crystalanders took the large crystal diamond shapes and placed them in each lake or river on the island and, as soon as the inhabitants of the island drank the water, a change started to take effect in their bodies. The magic had begun to work. The minerals washed through their bodies and released the negative blockages in their cells allowing a pathway to be established for the knowledge that would eventually be given to them to be absorbed without resistance. The Crystalanders then took the large crystal columns, which were dotted in a haphazard fashion around the planet, and placed them in a circle on the Earth’s energy centres – these were places where the mineral formation was latticed in a more complex pattern – and finally added their crystals to boost the power of the indigenous crystals. The calibration of the energy centres was complete.

  Because of their vibrational structure, these supra beings could never leave a group behind to oversee the planet indefinitely. They would not have survived, as the planet’s vibration would always be too dense for the finely balanced energy of the Crystalanders. In Crystaland the smallest particle was a vortex of energy, on Earth, the vortices were encased in an atom with physical structuresso that its information may be utilised in a material world – a world of physical form. They therefore had to make sure that the gifts they gave Earth fulfilled all of the planet’s needs and were given in a way that they were never forgotten. So they set about identifying what these people needed, not just to survive but also to evolve into their universal intelligent potential.

  THE GIFT OF HEALTH

  The crystal path changed again, this time to a deep green crystal and around Orla the terrain became a sea of plants, flowers, bushes and trees which oozed resins and gums from their trunks. The smells were intoxicating; sweet, floral and musk notes competed with the bitterness of the herbs. Unicorn continued narrating Earth’s story. The Crystalanders had provided every plant for human health. They had recognised the primitive biological systems of the humanoid and seen how quite easily the cells degenerated leaving their bodies vulnerable to disease. At the point that the Crystalanders came to Earth, the average life span of a humanoid was twenty-one years, so it was necessary to provide for them plants for both nutrition and medicine.

  In this terrain, Orla recognised plants that she had seen growing on her island but these plants were more lush – even the plants in the Secret Garden could not compare with these first generation plants. There was one plant in particular that she recognised which would give humans all the protein they required so that they never needed to eat flesh; the flesh of anything – animals or themselves. Unicorn went on to explain that by eating the flesh of another animal, the memory of the way that animal lived and died was transferred into the memory of the human who ate it. By eating the flesh of the grotesque animals that were roaming the earth in the pre-crystalline days, the primitive programming was reinforced, which was just one of the many programmes that the Crystalanders needed to transform. To prevent the eating of animal flesh the Crystalanders had removed all the grotesque animals to another galaxy whose planets had a tougher terrain, more in keeping with the nature of these beasts.

  The Golden Crystalanders taught humans how to choose the correct place to grow each plant, how to work with the cycles of the weather and the moon for optimum growth; how to cook the plants for food, having shown them how to use the special heating crystal they had created for that purpose.

  The most important plant that they introduced to mankind was the tree. The trees were a direct connection to the Wisdom of Creation and stored within each of them was valuable information. They were the original bridges between the Earth and Crystaland. When the buds of the trees were used as remedies, it brought the physical and emotional qualities of Wisdom to whoever used them. Every plant that existed had its use, there were no weeds, there were no mistakes and there definitely was no waste. And, with the ingestion of the super water together with the plants, the physical transformation of humans started to take place. They lost the protective coarse body hair and their skeletal structure began to change, as did the structure of their brains and nervous systems. And, in time, their colouring became as diverse as the plants.

  The Crystal
anders taught them the technique of extracting the therapeutic qualities of plants by a process that used different parts of the plant: from the buds of trees and shrubs that gave the pure growth hormone of all plant life, to the other parts of a plant that gave specific qualities targeting different systems of the body. The specific part of the plant went through several stages of purification that ultimately produced powerful essences. These essences contained the concentrated therapeutic qualities of the plants that could then be enhanced by directing a specific intention into them thereby tailoring specific remedies for individuals. The Crystalanders had recognised the unique quality of the humans’ physical body in that each person had a unique configuration of genetic coding, the difference was very subtle but it meant that their degenerative process was completely individual and each person needed a plant remedy designed to address that individual. In order to maximise the potency of the extractions, the essences were mixed with the Earth’s super-water that was rich in minerals actively charged with energy from the crystal chargers. The result was a series of essences and mineral complexes that covered every aspect of a person’s health from birth to death, ensuring that the Wisdom of Creation would be protected and perpetuated in every cell of their body. There wasn’t a condition of mind or body that couldn’t be corrected should a degeneration accidentally occur.

  Culinary medicine was known by everyone, so that food was used purely for nutrition and energy. The introduction of plants and remedies had a dual action: not only did they help to prevent degeneration, but they also prepared the cells of humans so that they would eventually be able to access the crystal genetic information in their bodies more readily. All these factors assisted the humans to change physically so that they eventually lost their grotesque appearance.
