June Solstice Gateway

June Solstice Sun on the Galactic Cross

by Cayelin K Castell

An ancient “School of Prophets” understood much about the cosmos and used natural time-cycles to mark out the course of history. For them the cosmos seemed somehow much closer and more relevant than it does today.
Among other things they believed that there were specific doorways or gates leading in and out of “heaven”. These portals were believed to be located at the points where the ecliptic (the pathway followed by the Sun in its annual progression along the zodiac) crosses over the Milky Way.
Significantly the Sun now sits at one of these gateways at the solstices. By a process of analogy: “As Above, So Below”, this indicates that it is now that these “stargates” are opening. Adrian Gilbert

As mentioned in the above quote Summer Solstice Sun now rises on the Galactic Cross near the Galactic Edge letting us know we are at the Turning of a Great Age. This is an event that occurs in the current configuration about every 26,000 years and lasts for at least 72 years – as that is how long it takes the Sun to move 1 degree through the backdrop of the stars.
Using the 72 year window this shift began in 1962 and ends in 2030. When considering an entire 26,000 year Great Year of time – one degree on either side of the exact center point of the Sun on the cross is also reasonable. That creates a 144 year window, 72 years on either side of the exact point. The exact center point was calculated by astronomer John Muess as occurring in 1998. That means if we calculate 72 years before and after – the window began in 1926 and lasts until 2070.
At the very least we know we are still near the exact center point when the ‘stargate’ or ‘portal’ is wide open during the solstices. The Sun acts as a doorway to the incoming energies, illuminating and opening the stargate to other realms and dimensions as it rises, sets and tracks across the sky during the solstice time. As pictured to the left – you can see where the June solstice Sun is sitting on the Galactic Cross between the constellation of the Twins and the Bull. Solstice translate as stand still of the Sun and is exact for at least three days and is nearly exact for almost three weeks.
The Sun is a star light so gives off star light, and carries its own starry codes that help to activate the area of the sky it is passing through. The Sun is necessary for life in many ways and also has the ability to help us calibrate our own frequency to the higher frequencies available at this time – especially during a Solstice or stand still time as it concentrates the star energy from that part of the sky for several days. This can help with healing physical, mental, emotional and spiritual issues when applied with awareness and a loving intent.
Working with ceremony and intent magnifies the Solstice energy as we inform the mysteries as much as they inform us.

FIFTH MOON CYCLE OF TRUTH:  FROGS RETURN MOON  APRIL 20-MAY20

 

People born under this moon cycle have Beaver as their animal totem.

Theirs is the second moon of the East Gate.

Blue Camas as the Plant totem and chrysocolla as their mineral.  This stone is similar to turquoise in color; and is known to assist its wearer

To balance the elements of earth and sky within herself. It is considered a stone of good medicine that will help to bring good health and good in general to it’s owner.

People born under this moon have Earth as their element and are of the Turtle Clan.

Beaver people appear lucky, but usually their good luck comes from determination and hard work. They can enjoy good health and strong bodies especially  if they wear the Chrysocolla Stone that is sky blue in color.

The Beaver people are hard workers, they are loyal friends and tend to treat friendships and relationships in a way that seems pure and clean as though it comes from a purer time.

The Blue Camas flower is a member of the lily family and was a staple food for Native people, they cooked the bulbs which were sweet.

                                                                                          

The color for beaver people is blue which signifies tranquility

 And contentment stemming from a feeling of peace and happines.  They have the ability to sustain those whom they are associated  because their roots grow deep into the earth forming a solid foundation.
