Hello Travellers. Its me again. Boy is life hotting up. Thank you for giving me this opportunity to share my ravings. I could keep them to myself but you just never know when someone just might find the contents of my life of value in theirs. After all connection is what its all about. So lets connect!
Last month I got a big stirring up and after a lot of soul searching etc. that you all know about, the tohu (signs) came through clearly. It wasn't for me to up stakes and go where I was more needed but to stay here and continue my work. Thank all of you who contributed to the conversation in so many ways and from so many different places. Thank you for your deep sharing of your own journeys. The offers for dinner have been stored away for the future so don't be surprised if you get a phone call one of these days. But I didn't starve. (Not that I expected to. That was metaphorical). But I did find a flow of creativity. Over my lifetime, I have come to know that there is a purpose for everything. Its just a matter of finding it and following.
In fact things started to shift almost immediately. I saw that I needed to lighten the load, clear out the excess baggage and prepare for the new. The new cannot come in unless we prepare a place for it at our table. I burnt 5 file boxes and 4 folders full of past paperwork and old journals (I still have a filing cabinet to go), sold a caravan, put my crash helmet and bike gear in trade me and started to feel great.. In fact I was really just on the lip of climbing over the rim of that pit when the next set of trainings arrived for me. Its about them that this newsletter is about.
Its been a year of sickness too, but the last bout didn't include fever so I could keep going. This time I was needed to take deep internal notice of the alternate realities and worlds that sometimes call me and I couldn't do that and work (or anything else. They get very insistent when they need to be heard, these allies of mine).
A shaman is a walker between the worlds. When it first started happening to me formally, I was reasonable unimpressed, preferring to be seen as a 'serious' transpersonal psychologist with shamanic leanings, rather than a serious shaman with psychological leanings, if you see what I mean. Not to mention that I was terrified. In the middle of a three week bout of grief over loss of love and community, as I had only been here a year, I was initiated as a shaman (whilst in the bath) with a visit from a Greyseal. Shocked right out of my depression, I determined that OK,ok, I was a shaman but what did that mean? If I didn't tell no one would know. And that's just the way I would have preferred it. So began the path of the reluctant shaman being dragged kicking and screaming out of the shamanic closet. Of course it didn't stay buried. "They" took great delight in outing me wherever possible. But I resisted....oh yes I did! I didn't go quietly. (And I still do resist, which is why I get resistant clients that also need to listen to where they are being guided and go where they least want to. That was a revelation that came a few days ago as to why my practice had been acting the way it had. It was mirroring me again. After all, I tell everyone else that resistance is a sign your on the edge of a big life changer (which is never as bad as we think its going to be). You teach what you most need to learn.
Not long after my initiation, I started getting 'downloads' of information at night instead of sleep. For years I spent most nights in alpha, like it or not. I was given the short shamanic course, a three year Psychosynthesis Course, and eventually two books over time. The next thing that happened was due to getting a horrible virus about 2001. Put me out for 3 weeks. Splitting headache and sick stomach that went on and on with this fever. Many a shaman has been made through a fever. In fact that is the root of the whole native American Sweat Lodge deal and the Irish people have a similar one. Induce a fever-slip between the worlds- and never be the same again.
In the middle of my 2001 fever, laying on my couch, I was visited by a Maori woman chanting strongly. She drew a symbol on my belly and round my head. The next day my recovery began. At the time she had told me her name was Tawira. Now that's what it sounded like to my Aussie ear, though it has since been suggested that it was probably Tawera. The initiation in the bath was enough like a visualization that I could fob it off with my cynic from time to time. Tawera was of a different order. Hallucination? Ah, there's a get-out. But I was better. Humm! Except that she came again in between sleep and wake some weeks later and asked me to marry her. Now that freaked me out! I have been gay for decades, but the concept of commitment to anyone but the woman I loved was strange and scarey. If I agreed, would I loose my physical love?? Could I ever get out of it, this marriage between the worlds? What if I defaulted? You get the picture. So I refused. What I turned down was the sacred union on this land, to this land and its people. The sacred marriage was a common rite in Celtic tradition. Its what gave someone the blessing of the land for a good harvest. The blessing of the Goddess. What fool I was, but I was not ready. She never came again.
Until a few days ago. I called her.
The virus I have had this week has been a doozy. In and out of mild temperature states. Lucid dreams-not making lots of sense but very real and chaotic. I had one about being in a boat in an underground cavern with the outlet blocked by a rock wall with a locked doorway in it. I realised I had to unlock the door to allow the flow but spent all night fading in and out of the task. I wasn't ready. The feeling reminded me so much of that fever that Tawera arrived in the middle off that I wondered. I called her and an old Kuia came. It was Tawera. I said, "you've aged", and she said " so have you' Right! I asked if she would heal me again and she said yes... for a cost. If she did, I was to agree that my DNA would stay in this land after my death. Guess what? Yep. scared again. After my recent thinking that I was perhaps to be sent back to Oz, what if I let her down ...again. But I realized that it was about commitment. That she wasn't asking me never to leave the country but to make sure my DNA stayed here and co-mingled with the land. To marry it.
Of course I agreed. Well, you would wouldn't you?
Next day they changed my antibiotics (helps when you get the right medication). They were a type that cuts bits out of the DNA of the bacteria and causes it to collapse. Poof! No more bacteria. Fever went on though.
I faded out and saw a rosette representing the new antibiotic and in the middle of it was the words "I am". I guess healing comes when you commit to who you are. Then straight away a Maori warrior with a Taiaha pranced forward as part of a formal Marae welcome and placed a dart before me in challenge. Now before I go on (Not much longer I promise, but you can stop reading any time your bored). As I said, before I go on there is something you need to know. I am dead against strip mining other peoples culture and becoming pseudo anything. I have a shamanic and indigenous heritage that it would take more than this lifetime to resurrect out of the grave assigned to it. I love and respect other peoples paths and ways but I don't have to become one because I'm not one., Sharing mutual understanding ..sure. When indigenous people come to me offering gifts I am not so ungracious as to say "Nah! No way!" I have been initiated into the Peruvian Munay Ki, I have been taught by a Waitaha mentor and had a mantle placed around my shoulders to work with Pakeha to ground them in the land. But I am always a little hesitant about what this means and not wanting to stepping over a line in the sand and being misunderstood by either side. So the Warriors challenge was asking me to step forward and pick it up. For those of you that don't know about Marae protocol, this is a good time to find out. Briefly, when the visitors (manahiri) come to a Marae, they have to show to the tangata to whenua (locals) that they are friendly or they wont be let in (of course). So they get challenged and must meet that challenge with their own warriors. If they do the protocol properly then they get to come in and party. If they do it wrong, all hell breaks loose. I was scared again. Sometimes I feel like a spiritual doormouse.
But I was beginning to get that they wanted me to rise to the challenge they have been setting me, for years I suppose, so I picked up the dart and was told that the first challenge was to accept the challenge. Deh! Now I said that quick but think about it. Its so profound it hurts. Unless we accept life's challenges there is no learning thereafter. Thank you, thank you. Honore ki te Atu o te whenua. Honour to the spirits of this Land. Nothing begins until we step up to the plate.
The next Dart was layed down for me. It was set down in the middle of the previous rosette with 'I am' inscribed within it. The lesson was that the DNA holds all the knowledge of our experience. If we do not have the courage to have the experiences, the DNA is not enriched, even if those experiences are not pleasant. This virus had not been a easy trip, but what I was being updated with was worth a fever blister or two. We build the strength of our immune system by coming up against things that make it stronger. While hygiene is good, sterility is not always the most appropriate way to conduct life. Coddled kids got all the colds. When knowledge is coupled with experience it becomes wisdom and makes us strong.
The final dart was placed. It was set down in the middle of a spiral carved by the taiaha. The message was that if the dart remained in the centre and was never taken up as a challenge, life could never have happened. The Big Bang would have been a non-event. We could never have happened. If everything stays potential at the centre of our lives but is never opened up to the experience of all, our personal life never happens. We can stand still forever, but its not a life. We carve life by taking the dart and drawing the journey that we send it on. It isn't about getting it right. Its about getting on with it! We have done whatever we have done to ourselves, each other and the planet. Now we get on and learn from that and keep drawing, keep picking up the challenges, keep learning, keep experiencing. We keep life going because that's what its here for.
The final bit was whether I should tell you all this or whether I was being an egotistical drama queen with elevated ideas of my own importance. Not to mention being an Australian cockney. But I guess that was the doormouse again, so here it is. Blessed Be. Jay Sparrowhawk Loudmouth Ray.

Jay's June 2011 Newsletter
Hi People.
This months newsletter is as much therapy for me as it is hopefully wisdom for you. I used to say to my Psychosynthesis trainees "you cant take anyone anywhere you haven't been yourself". On that basis I have been doing a good deal of soul searching and self examination of where I find myself. What has brought this about is the partial collapse of my practice. Its still functional, but not enough to keep the wolf far away from the door. So I have been going through a process of 'what I am doing to manifest this'. As I am doing it anyway, you might as well benefit. Self disclosure has always been good for the soul. These are some of my findings:
Firstly when I reach the end of my self recrimination for 'causing' this situation in my life, it came to me that in the world outside the human experience, all things go through a season change. Whether it is summer to winter, rainfall to drought, pestilence and predation, those affected have to change the steps to their dance to survive in order to be in life with the new. The seed that finds itself without water cant go 'Oh why have I manifested this?" but must find a way to survive long enough for the season to change again or to adapt itself and learn from that. A seed contains within it a signature to its personality and value however and cannot in its current incarnation become something or other else. It cant, for instance, make itself into a bird and fly to where water is. It must do the best it can with where it is at without resigning itself to disaster. In other words it must learn what it can to include in its genetic make up and to allow it to adapt. So based on that piece of wisdom from nature, I got off my own case for awhile and started to look at what was going on around me.
Reality check:
The economy is stink for many people and the government isn't helping.
The Earth is demanding a reshuffle and is throwing her weight behind it with volcanoes, earthquake, storms.
Human society can no longer rely on oil to make our manufacturing industry and so our current jobs flourish.
The structure we are used to is crumbling fast.
Therefore: People are pulling back, holding on, battening down in many ways.
However:
The change that we are having was always coming.
Crisis always comes before a new structure can be put in place containing the new learning we have had.
Many new ideas are spreading through the world that will revolutionize our way of life given time.
The world is heading for a cleaner more honest lifestyle.
The animal and plant world will love us for reconnecting with their needs.
That reconnection will spread to our own relationships and change the way we hold each other into one of co-operation and community-working together not competing.
In the meantime:
Like the seed, I must learn about whats happening inside me but also around me in order to adapt. At the age of 64 (birthday tomorrow so maybe this soul searching has something to do with that) I cannot now retrain to become an environmental engineer, nor would I want to. The pattern of my being speaks of my place in the greater scheme of things. I cannot go against that for economic reasons. I do however have to acknowledge that for some reason people are not wanting what I have to offer at the moment. So what have I to offer that is of any use to anyone??? Only my honesty. My emotional honesty. It is at the core of what I have taught and the basis of my therapy work as a psychosynthesis and as a shaman. But most of us have been trained to NOT be emotionally honest. Instead, we tell people what they want to hear for securities sake. We have been encouraged to shut down our truth (the truth about ourselves I'm talking about here, not what we think others should be). And we spend huge amounts of energy maintaining that facade for fear that if the truth is revealed, our world will come tumbling down around our ears. And it may! But if that is the case it was on shaky foundations anyway if it is based on self dishonesty. Its only by being true to ourselves, allowing it to crumble or dismantling it ourselves, that we can start from the clean foundation of ourselves and build a life we can be real in: a life we can LIVE in. We need to send each other honest feedback and receive that in order to have accurate information on which to base our decisions. No "yeah/no" will do.
And here's my problem. I want to tell you all the truth but fear tells me that if I do you will turn away. Fear tell me that I have to be 'positive' because that's what people need right now from me.They don't want to know that my practice does not have enough people in it right now to survive, or buy my food etc. But if I hide my situation from you I am living in duality with myself. That way leads me to not be honest with you. And I need my clients (and all of you) to know that whilst I need their money, I also am not willing to compromise on my integrity and will never do it just so I can pay the bills.
I try to see why I have not got the new influx of clients that always sustains me and allows me to sustain them. Is it because people don't want to look at the hard stuff right now in particular? Its too scary. And to come to Jay Ray means facing stuff that we are trying so hard not to look at for fear of the consequences?
Like the environment however, playing ostrich doesn't work long term. Sooner or later the crumbling earthquakes come, ready or not. We cant just put a positive spin on it and pretend that it wont happen because it will and it is. Having said that, its not about resigning to despair either. Like the seed we have to look within ourselves to see where the truth is and build on that. We must deal with the lessons of the past in order to not create the same again, personally or globally.
In the process of this self exploration, I started to wonder if indeed Dunedin has too many practitioners per head of willing population and that my particular brand of fire-eating/breathing was not what Dunediners want. And maybe that's true. I don't know yet where the way through all this is leading for me. I have thought about moving to Wellington where there are not enough therapists, I hear, to service the population, and people have to wait for ages to get in to see someone at all. I have thought of going back to Australia, where this type of self development has been well accepted since the 80's. Larger catchment areas provide more life-giving water to the little seed. But I love Dunedin, and I love NZ. Whilst I am willing to go wherever the Universe wants me and finds me a worthy purpose, as I was when I came here, I find it heart rending to consider leaving my turangawaiwai. So at this stage the internal jury is out. I have no idea where to go from here. I watch for the toru (signs) from my Higher Self and wait. I still have a practice and will keep it as long as there are people that find my work worthwhile. Conversely, if there are people in it that don't then they need to go whether it means my practice folds or not.
But I must eat. I am looking for jobs to supplement it but that is a process in itself. I came up with the idea of sitting in Centre City with a sign saying "Wise Woman who will listen to your problems and give wise counsel". Whilst it was a viable business when I did something similar in Sydney, I wonder how well people here would take to sitting down in public and sharing their pain.
So I ask myself once again, "What do I have to offer?" And still I come back to the phrase "Emotional Honesty". Being it, teaching it, helping others to find it. But people have to want it. If they don't, I am in the wrong place. It takes courage, as much from me as from those who come to enter into the partnership of growth with me in therapy. So it is,' putting my money where my mouth is' as they say, that I share my story with you in the hope that the more I model it, the more value that will be to others, and the more they will find a desire to work with me. If in that process, my honesty leads to the recognition that I cannot be of service to the people of Dunedin, then I will have to have the courage to go..
Why am I saying all this??? Not for your sympathy. Not for your charity. Not to make anyone feel bad (but if you do, don't forget to look at what's going on inside to make you take on my stuff . But because I don't want to lower my eyes from you when you say "Hows it going Jay?" and tell you that it 'great'. God only enters into equal partnerships so the 'Book of Runes' says, and I want that in my relationships with you. I am ready for whatever happens next. I am feeling the deep need to trust and stay centred in the NOW. Ultimately, if my Higher Self still wants me on the job, something will shift. If its got something else in mind, no doubt it will arrive when its ready.
I do hope that this self exposure helps some of you in your own courageous journey of self honesty. If not then thanks for listening.Blessings as always. Jay Ray!

The History of Worth and Why we Don't Believe We Have It.
Hello Everyone. Hope you are thriving during these times of change.
I have been working a lot recently with the concept of 'worth'. Its another of those words that are bandied about and used for just about everything. What it boils down to when someone asks 'whats it worth' is that they are asking the cost. We have come to believe that worth is about money exchange and status which is defined by money and goods accumulated. That, then, starts to translate into what we see as self-worth and most people don't feel like they have enough of it.
I have always been a student of history and believe that we cannot divorce ourselves from our own and our peoples past. We don't have to be a victim of it, but we do have to acknowledge and learn from it's part in shaping our parents who shaped us, before we could shape ourselves.
As most of us have some part of ourselves that goes back to early Britain, it's as well to look at what happened back then that still affects our own idea and sense of worth. And what happened there did in fact become a world wide trend, either in association with it, or independent of it. Britain, being a fertile island separated from the turmoil of Europe, became a sort after haven and a prize worth having. This started right back with the arrival of the Celts, followed by the Ango-Saxon hordes, the Romans, and the Normans, with a few interventions from the Vikings who made a mess but didn't really settle there en masse. So each wave of invasion created a 'foreign' authority layer that enslaved the locals. Then subsequent invasions continued to put pressure on from the top creating layer and layers of disenfranchised (slaves) people. Hence was the beginning of hierarchy in Britain. Those at the bottom where deprived of their material worth as well as their self worth as they felt they no longer were able to provide for their families or make decisions for themselves but were dependent on the next layer up for everything because they were required to give up everything to them and then ask for it back. Based on that, our forebears lost their sense of self being worth anything in the society that was inflicted on them by might.
And this is pretty much the way our society still operates. We still believe that if we are of the ruling elite we will regain our worth. But there are 99.5% of the population (everyone except you, actually) competing for your place at the top of (or wherever you have been able to get yourself to) the pyramid. This means you can never sleep on the job of becoming 'upwardly mobile' if you buy into this way of being. And we all do on some level. We even manage to turn our spirituality into a one-up-person-ship process with some being more evolved that others and issuing dictum's as to what we need to DO to become elevated. (Remember I am including myself in this ). Hence we all have low self esteem on some level and my practice is full of people seeking a way out of this catch 22 that is literally killing them. And I mean literally. Overwork, worry about what others think or might think if we did this or that, depression about where we are at in our lives, continual encouragement from advertising to purchase and consume and own more things that we are told are 'essential' to our rising out of our current emotional state.
But what we have forgotten with all the invasions (the final one being the invasion of the corporate moguls) is that, even on a scientific basis, we are all part of the raw material of life. Not one part of the Whole can be lost. We are part of it all no matter what shape or species we are currently in the shape of. After all, when we die, the matter that was us just becomes something else; compost, food for the next generation of something. As such we all have what I call 'intrinsic worth' just because we exist. And there isn't anything you can DO to increase or decrease that worth. It just is. Oh Yes, you can earn a million, that's fun if you want to put your time and energy into it. You can be an artist, a parent, a scientist, a beneficiary. Its not going to change your intrinsic worth one iota. You are part of the matter of Everything and that's that. So everything from then on is your choice to spend you time here on because it doesn't really matter. Your worth is already assured. We are just living out a nightmare created by others long ago and perpetuated because nobody stops to think about it. "Do what you will" the magical moto goes, because ultimately we all return to the pot of matter as we arrived in it. And I can hear some of you say, "if we did everything we want life would be chaos". Would it? If we all understood our worth was unassailable, I suggest that we wouldn't feel bad, therefore would not need to get angry. As a result we would have no reason not to be in accord with the Whole. Think about it. When we are OK we can afford to be generous, and we usually are. If we don't, its because we are afraid that by being so we will lose. But lose what?? Our status in society...and around we go again. I could go on about this for pages, but I hope this taste will be enough to set you thinking. YOU ARE WORTH IT!
If you doubt that, come and some sessions with me and we'll see what we can do to change your mind.

We have come to believe that worth is about money exchange and status which is defined by money and goods accumulated. That, then, starts to translate into what we see as self-worth and most people don't feel like they have enough of it.
I have always been a student of history and believe that we cannot divorce ourselves from our own and our peoples past. We don't have to be a victim of it, but we do have to acknowledge and learn from it's part in shaping our parents who shaped us, before we could shape ourselves.
As most of us have some part of ourselves that goes back to early Britain, it's as well to look at what happened back then that still affects our own idea and sense of worth. And what happened there did in fact become a world wide trend, either in association with it, or independent of it. Britain, being a fertile island separated from the turmoil of Europe, became a sort after haven and a prize worth having. This started right back with the arrival of the Celts, followed by the Ango-Saxon hordes, the Romans, and the Normans, with a few interventions from the Vikings who made a mess but didn't really settle there en masse. So each wave of invasion created a 'foreign' authority layer that enslaved the locals. Then subsequent invasions continued to put pressure on from the top creating layer and layers of disenfranchised (slaves) people. Hence was the beginning of hierarchy in Britain. Those at the bottom where deprived of their material worth as well as their self worth as they felt they no longer were able to provide for their families or make decisions for themselves but were dependent on the next layer up for everything because they were required to give up everything to them and then ask for it back. Based on that, our forebears lost their sense of self being worth anything in the society that was inflicted on them by might.
And this is pretty much the way our society still operates. We still believe that if we are of the ruling elite we will regain our worth. But there are 99.5% of the population (everyone except you, actually) competing for your place at the top of (or wherever you have been able to get yourself to) the pyramid. This means you can never sleep on the job of becoming 'upwardly mobile' if you buy into this way of being. And we all do on some level. We even manage to turn our spirituality into a one-up-person-ship process with some being more evolved that others and issuing dictum's as to what we need to DO to become elevated. (Remember I am including myself in this ). Hence we all have low self esteem on some level and my practice is full of people seeking a way out of this catch 22 that is literally killing them. And I mean literally. Overwork, worry about what others think or might think if we did this or that, depression about where we are at in our lives, continual encouragement from advertising to purchase and consume and own more things that we are told are 'essential' to our rising out of our current emotional state.
But what we have forgotten with all the invasions (the final one being the invasion of the corporate moguls) is that, even on a scientific basis, we are all part of the raw material of life. Not one part of the Whole can be lost. We are part of it all no matter what shape or species we are currently in the shape of. After all, when we die, the matter that was us just becomes something else; compost, food for the next generation of something. As such we all have what I call 'intrinsic worth' just because we exist. And there isn't anything you can DO to increase or decrease that worth. It just is. Oh Yes, you can earn a million, that's fun if you want to put your time and energy into it. You can be an artist, a parent, a scientist, a beneficiary. Its not going to change your intrinsic worth one iota. You are part of the matter of Everything and that's that. So everything from then on is your choice to spend you time here on because it doesn't really matter. Your worth is already assured. We are just living out a nightmare created by others long ago and perpetuated because nobody stops to think about it. "Do what you will" the magical moto goes, because ultimately we all return to the pot of matter as we arrived in it. And I can hear some of you say, "if we did everything we want life would be chaos". Would it? If we all understood our worth was unassailable, I suggest that we wouldn't feel bad, therefore would not need to get angry. As a result we would have no reason not to be in accord with the Whole. Think about it. When we are OK we can afford to be generous, and we usually are. If we don't, its because we are afraid that by being so we will lose. But lose what?? Our status in society...and around we go again. I could go on about this for pages, but I hope this taste will be enough to set you thinking. YOU ARE WORTH IT!
If you doubt that, come and some sessions with me and we'll see what we can do to change your mind.

Well Ken Ring was right. Christchurch, Twizal both got Earthquakes on the weekend. So it just shows that ancient science was perhaps as accurate as modern science is. At least now he can continue his good work freer of the criticisms of the doubters. Far from begin the gullible type myself, I have observed time and again how reluctant we in the West are to accept anything that doesn't fit in with our 'accepted' parameters. A friend recently said, "I get so sick of the Naysayers" and I have to agree. I read an article today poking fun at the Mayans and saying they were stupid and got it all wrong because the catastrophes are happening now rather than 2012. Duh! It was researchers in the West that came up with the 2012 date of alignment with the Mayan calendar, not the Mayans and yes, I think they did get it wrong-by about 2 years. But it wasn't a bad shot. Ken got it wrong by about 12 hours. That's an even better shot. Everyone gets it a bit wrong sometimes but that doesn't mean they don't know what they are talking about. Exact science is also limited. We fool ourselves if we think we can 'get it right' when we are living in a fluid world in a fluid Universe. But we can 'sense' things and be in the right ball park enough to be able to have the information we need to preserve ourselves and our species if we get over 'knowing it all' in our heads.
Like everyone else I know, shit has been coming up for me this last few weeks. Mini-quakes filtering up from the depth of my consciousness that I thought had long since gone. But they were ready to be stirred up along with the other seismic activity to be worked at again and have another sliver shaved off the issue and hopefully dealt with. And I have realised that I must deal with it because to not do so would be to become ineffective in my work of assisting others to do the same with their own stuff. There is no more time to take 5 year sabbaticals from life. We all need each other to be there for each other: warts and all. Its not about anyone being perfect (although God knows- I think a part of me would prefer it if I were), its about being willing. Its about mustering up as much self honesty as we can find in each situation to own our own stuff and hand back whats not ours. That takes courage, but right now is not the time to self flagellate or to go hide under a rock, both of which I have been known to resort to occasionally. Imperfect beings that we are, we need each others strengths and skills, every one of us.
And we all have things to offer. Whether its a listening ear, the ability to physically get stuck in, the knowledge of the Universe, or a good way with kids, we are needed and must value ourselves for that if we are going participate in the shift of the ages. If we are going to survive and thrive where the earth is taking us (wherever the hell that might be). There is a tool in Psychosynthesis called Unconditional Love and Forgiveness. Rather than it being about forgiving and forgetting, its about accepting the truth, learning from and then moving on from while sending Universal Love to the situation or person. Its something we must learn to do daily because its a bit like learning to walk, we'll be doing it everyday for a long time. It is needed wherever things have turned out differently to what we had expected and hoped for. It occurs when our boundaries have been violated and when we have violated someone else's. It occurs when people have disappointed us and let us done and we have done the same. Its not about suppressing anything. We must accept where we're at with it, learn from it and choose again based on the new information we now have. I recommend it as a tool worth carrying around with you as we move through these times where people and ourselves included are dealing with so much more than we usually have to and slip out of their center into the shit. But lets pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, learn, grow and move on through the next challenge until we find the safe harbour somewhere up ahead. It wont happen yet because we are only entering the tunnel of change. But it will happen.
I wish you all the strengths and courage, hoesty and willingness you will need to walk your own path through these times. Jay!

Hello Everyone and welcome to the next stage of transformation. Some time ago I mentioned that astrologers felt that the 2012 phenomena had been miscalculated based on a mistake that occurred at the crossover from Julian to Gregorian calendars, and that as a result, the phenomena actually occurred last year on the 21st Dec solstice. That seems to be truely born out by world events. Almost immediately we had the floods around the world and across the ditch which are continuing to cause evacuations as of yesterday in the far north of Queensland. We have had democracy being fought for strongly throughout anywhere there has existed a autocratic government, (and starting to reach China) and now we have our own dear Christchurch 'suffering the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune'. But everywhere there is the growth of co-operation and good will-the hallmark of the new paradigm. So despite the trauma and horror that seems inevitable as part of walking through what is required for both the Earth and the Human Race to change, there are signs of health hidden within the rubble. My love and heart felt empathy go out to all of you that are currently being acutely affected by these changes. Do not give up hope. Look again and see where the Universe is pointing you and follow your heart not your head and it WILL come good. It is definitely time for us to follow our inner knowing as all old ways of going about things will not work from here on in. What we think we know is less important than what we feel from here on in. The good news is that the worse case scenario depicted in the movie 2012 hasn't happened. We are moving on to a new plane of existence and that's exciting. Trust yourselves, Love yourselves and watch the changes occur. There will not be another generation with ring side seats for 26,000 years. Bless you all that you will be in the right place at the right time to receive you Good! Sparrowhawk

Happy New Year Everyone. First of all I want to thank you all for being who you are. The fact that you are interested in your souls journey, and want to make a difference is what this new time is all about. So pat yourselves on the back for a start!
Many of you know that I am an initiator of the Munay Ki, a Peruvian series of rites that are handed down to us by the Qu'ero people of Peru, and designed to prepare people for the times we are now in. Along with the Mayan and other peoples from Meso America, they knew about these times 3000 odd years ago and provide us now with the information about them and the way to walk through them. Because this is a 26,000 year galactic cycle that we are privileged enough to be part of right now.
What it is about is that at the centre of our Galaxy, The Milky Way, as with most other galaxies, there is a massive ultra-powerful black hole, out of which stars and planets are born. Just near the black hole is a huge bulge, like a pregnant belly, where all these stars cluster and begin their journey, moving away from the centre as a result of the expansion of the Universe. The Mayans refer to this as the Mother, the centre of our galaxy, and the black hole as the birth canal. Every 26,000 years our solar system and Sun lines up with this energy flow on the 21st December solstice. Those that have attempted to marry up our Gregorian Calender with the Mayan one, set that date at the solstice of 2012 and as you probably know there has been lots of excitement and fear around that time. Now it seems that the calendar 'liners-uppers' where out by about 2 years. It was really 21st Dec 2010. The astrologers are saying it, the Mayans always said it was more likely to be in 2011 and the **Pueblo people say that it was always set to occur along with an eclipse which occurred on the 21st of last month. Follow that up with the devastation that is 'flooding' the globe and I think we can safely say we are in it. But as *Edgar Winter says below, we didn't die, not masses of us anyway and certainly not yet. But something else is happening that is really exciting me. Goodwill. ***People are out there helping each other. Politicians are getting their acts together and being real and caring for a change. Love is being sent and spirits are up more often than they are down. I feel the energy has already changed and will continue to do so. If it takes disasters to do that they are well worth it. We just have to make those co-operative attitudes stick around for the long term. It is a year of new beginnings to follow the endings we have to have.

For me personally my little disasters are making me sit up too, but so far they are no where near what you will read below.
As some of you know, I had to put my dog down on the 2nd Jan after her 17th birthday on the 1st. Our cat has had to go in for major surgery 2 days later, and my relatives were on red alert in Brisbane waiting for the call to evacuate. It hasn't been pleasant but it is getting me off my bum. The overall message to me is 'get on with it Jay", so here is my programme for the year:

The overall message to me is 'get on with it Jay", so here is my programme for the year:
Talks:
I will be running a series of 8 talks starting Friday 4th February 7.30 until 9.30 at a cost of $10 per person. Registration will be required.
The First talk will be on "Trust v Fear- How to handle the world to come".
Second- "The Past and the Future are in the Present- Its what you do now that counts'.
Third- "What you see is the Physical, What you ARE is light- How do we live with that?"
Fourth- "Healing Starts Within -What your Doctor cant tell you".
Programme for the next four talks will be in the February Newsletter.
Munay Ki initiations:
1) I will also be offering another series of Munay Ki initiation training workshops on May 1st, 7th, 14th,21st,28th.
There are 8 rites and a further 9th rite when initiates are ready for it. These rites condition our energy field to cope with the changes in the worlds energy field that we are now undergoing. They give us assistance in healing ourselves and others, connecting to all life, and assisting in taking on the guardianship of the Earth with all other beings. They connect us the our ancestors, past lives, the animal kingdom, lineages of healers, Daykeepers of the sacred sights, other Planetary Beings, and the One itself. Cost of course will be $600 and a deposit of $150 is required at acceptance into course. Cost will include information handouts and audio on CD. The final rite is given separately in a one-on-one session of 90 minutes at a cost of $80 and includes a gem quality 'pi' stone which is the key to your multidimensional matrix, (which cannot be given until all 9 rites have been received) and a CD of the rites themselves. Participation in these workshops require an interview with me to assess candidates suitability for the initiations. This is not a place to start self development, but an acceleration of growth already commenced, therefore candidates need to have done work on themselves in some form to be eligible. There is no cost for this interview which will generally take about 30 mins.
2) I also offer initiation one-on-one over a period of approximately 3 months to those who wish to work more deeply on their own issues along with the Munay Ki training. This is recommended for those who have not looked into their own issues and cleared their energy field by resolving past trauma. Cost of session work is $80 per 90 minute session on a weekly or fortnightly basis.

Psychosynthesis Training:
As many of you will remember, I ran the Focus Psychosynthesis Training Course in Dunedin for 7 years offering a practitioner training. Whilst I no longer offer the full training, I am offering the first module of a new course for people wishing to gain tools in the their own psycho/spiritual healing using Psychosynthesis techniques and philosophies. This course is 12 weeks long with a one day workshop at the beginning and another at the end of that term. It will commence with a workshop "In the Beginning was the Belief" on Saturday June 11th followed by classes every thursday night from 6.30 to 9.30 commencing June 16th until Aug 31st. The final workshop is on Sat 3rd Sept and is called "The Power of Choice". Cost is $840.00 including a copy of my book "The Way Through-A Guide to Psychosynthesis in Everyday Life" which will be the text for the course. $200 deposit on acceptance into course.
This course is done in a small intimate group of usually no more than 6 students and also requires a free entrance interview for appropriateness for the individual students needs.The module offered is the first of three possible modules extending on from it, should the students desire to continue further studies.

N.B. For both Munay Ki and Psychosynthesis Courses, individual payment plans may be available. All number are kept small to increase participation so if you are interested now is the time to inquire in case the places fill up quickly.
Quantum Shamanic Training:
I am also taking on students in shamanic studies on a one-on-one basis. This is an intensive open ended training which includes self exploration work, teaching of principles and techniques, connecting with your ancestors and working with them, learning from the animal realm, communication with the Earth herself, walking between the worlds, journeying and much more. N.B. This is not Native American based shamanism. All peoples have had their own wisdom keepers. They live within our DNA and that wisdom can be accessed by us all if we understand how. This is an opportunity to link into your own no matter what your heritage is spiritually or genetically. In saying that, I honour our indigenous relatives who have held the knowledge in their own culture while we lost knowledge of ours. But we need to access ours too and stand beside them adding our wisdom to theirs. We are the missing link. They await our own shift in consciousness so the peoples of the world can become spiritually complete. Costs are the same as individual sessions below. Personal commitment to this work is required. Without it we would get no where.

Sessions
I am always available for individual session work with clients. Sessions are 90 minute long at a cost of $80 and require a minimum commitment of 3 months initial work on a weekly basis. There are no issues too great or small that you cannot grow from. I have had 27 years working as a therapist and 15 years as a practicing Celtic shaman. My work now also incorporates aspects of quantum mechanic and the way it facilitates a deeper understanding of the way our inner world works. If you are experiencing depression, anxiety, floods of emotion, are confused, frustrated or just plain curious about your path in life, come and see me.
I also have a Diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy and Psychology, a certificate in Human Sexual Behaviour and Psycho-pharmacology, as well as my Psychosynthesis.

*1) Good News / Bad News!! From Edgar Winters. Astrologer
THE GOOD NEWS! The world will not end on Dec 21, 2012.
THE BAD NEWS: The date has been moved up to Dec 21, 2010. :)
An astrologer, Victoria Peltz just wrote an article explaining that we are – or may be - two years off in our calendar because of the confusion back in the 16th century between the Gregorian and Julian calendar. In other words when we interpreted the end of the age in the Mayan calendar as 2012, it should have been 2010. “ Now what is so interesting about that is when I heard of the 2012 end of the world scenario, I immediately did a chart for Dec 21, 2012 and saw nothing. BUT, if I do a chart for Dec 21, 2010, I see a spectacular, powerful eclipse lasting over one hour. Also, in July 2010, we have a cardinal T-Square with Saturn, Uranus and Pluto in the sky that can be seen as a herald or portent of things to come.”
People have been predicting the end of the world approximately every couple of centuries since 2800 BC when it was written on a clay table in Assyria. And the Mayan elders have been trying to tell everyone that the end of a cycle on their calendar is not the end of the world.
Dec 21, 2012 is actually Dec 21, 2010
2010 is a WHOPPER! And is more the REAL 2012. The alignments of December 21,
2012 is nowhere near the power of December 21, 2010
More and more astrologers say this year is THE ONE. They were 2 years off !
It will happen at WORLD POINT 0 degrees Cancer, and have an effect the world over, it will also conjunct Hades.
ECLIPSE SMACK DAB ON WINTER SOLSTICE DAY.
On 21st December 2010 coincides with a total lunar eclipse. This is the only lunar eclipse that will occur over this period of 36 years or so during which the winter solstice sunrise is directly aligned to the Galactic Centre. The Mayans, among other cultures, have identified this dark rift in the Milky Way galaxy (between Sagittarius & Scorpio) as the cosmic source of all creation (and destruction) and they have specifically tied their mythological and calendrical traditions to its winter solstice alignment. It is the place to which the Mayan shamans have always ventured on their visionary journeys in order to gain wisdom and understanding. On Winter Solstice this year, thanks to the lunar eclipse, and for the only time during this period of solar alignment, the Moon, Earth, Solstice Sun and Galactic Centre will all be in perfect alignment.
“So far everywhere I have been reading online everyone is saying it is what the 2012 should look like!!! BUT 12-21-2010 that looks like it instead... All the astrologers say 2010 is a heck of a lot more crazy than 2012. Yeah its a countdown all right !

In other words when we interpreted the end of the age in the Mayan calendar as 2012, it should have been 2010. “ Now what is so interesting about that is when I heard of the 2012 end of the world scenario, I immediately did a chart for Dec 21, 2012 and saw nothing. BUT, if I do a chart for Dec 21, 2010, I see a spectacular, powerful eclipse lasting over one hour. Also, in July 2010, we have a cardinal T-Square with Saturn, Uranus and Pluto in the sky that can be seen as a herald or portent of things to come.”
People have been predicting the end of the world approximately every couple of centuries since 2800 BC when it was written on a clay table in Assyria. And the Mayan elders have been trying to tell everyone that the end of a cycle on their calendar is not the end of the world.
Dec 21, 2012 is actually Dec 21, 2010
2010 is a WHOPPER! And is more the REAL 2012. The alignments of December 21,
2012 is nowhere near the power of December 21, 2010
More and more astrologers say this year is THE ONE. They were 2 years off !
It will happen at WORLD POINT 0 degrees Cancer, and have an effect the world over, it will also conjunct Hades.
ECLIPSE SMACK DAB ON WINTER SOLSTICE DAY.
On 21st December 2010 coincides with a total lunar eclipse. This is the only lunar eclipse that will occur over this period of 36 years or so during which the winter solstice sunrise is directly aligned to the Galactic Centre. The Mayans, among other cultures, have identified this dark rift in the Milky Way galaxy (between Sagittarius & Scorpio) as the cosmic source of all creation (and destruction) and they have specifically tied their mythological and calendrical traditions to its winter solstice alignment. It is the place to which the Mayan shamans have always ventured on their visionary journeys in order to gain wisdom and understanding. On Winter Solstice this year, thanks to the lunar eclipse, and for the only time during this period of solar alignment, the Moon, Earth, Solstice Sun and Galactic Centre will all be in perfect alignment.
“So far everywhere I have been reading online everyone is saying it is what the 2012 should look like!!! BUT 12-21-2010 that looks like it instead... All the astrologers say 2010 is a heck of a lot more crazy than 2012. Yeah its a countdown all right !
(Editor feels that the 6 months effect of this Eclipse is potent and since Jan opened up just after that eclipse with devastating world floods and landslides floods, so more stuff , whatever, is still to come.)
Also, this somehow adds up with the 2012 Movie, "We didn’t get the Date right", the Movie is about the 2012 Theme but is taking place in 2010 or 2011 as I remember right from the movie. Of course they can be off. There are astrologers desperate to find stunning
alignments in 2012 but cant. All the whoppers are in 2010.
Also of interest…On December 21st 2010, the Solstice occurs on the same day as a Total Lunar Eclipse which takes place (astrologically) within 2 degrees of the Galactic Centre. That's a pretty big coincidence considering that an alignment with this area is central to the 2012 'belief'. Furthermore the total phase of the eclipse will last for the mystical number of 72 minutes. It will be
visible over the America's and particularly the west coast of America, Central America and South America - home to the Maya!

(Editor It would be interesting to see if the I month per I minute takes effect in mystical language and the next 6 years are in crisis)
**2) "This was the first time in almost 500 years that a full lunar eclipse fell on the Winter Solstice. The significance of this event was not lost on Mayan scholars who researched the dates of the Gregorian Calendar and the Mayan Baktuns. They suggested that 12.21.10 was in fact year Zero rather than 12.21.12. Their interpretations suggest the "end times" presented in the Mayan calendars happened during a lunar eclipse. The next time there's a lunar eclipse on the Winter Solstice is 36 years from now.
A message from a Red Shouldered Hawk which presented itself on the morning of the eclipse, was re-stated during the actual ceremony when another hawk flew over the gathering. The Pueblo people call the Red Shouldered Hawk the Red Eagle of Transformation. They say the hawk brings Visionary Power and Guardianship of the Sacred. Hawk asks us to see the bigger vision amid the smaller details."Jo Mooy Spiritual Connections Newsletter
