Spiral

When I first began cataloging my experience in places There, I was either in the Theatre, a little pied-à-terre adjacent in Chelsea, which actually belonged to George and was very Art Deco and full of his Everest photographs, or in my little cabin, which was then 'out there' in a certain direction from the Theatre. Since I knew where everything was spatially in relation to where I was, it never occurred to me to draw a map. I knew how to get to the Town and the University, the other two learning centres I had frequent interaction with. I knew where the Welcome and Rest centre was. I knew where the borderlands were where people got stuck sometimes (and from which the hardier of our folk did retrievals.) I also knew there were areas that corresponded to what followers of major religions thought of as their 'paradise' or 'heaven'. I knew my location in relation to other planes (or dimensions, if you will.)

Initially, the Michael Teachings, from the original books by Quinn Yarbro, gave enough of an accurate accounting of location to satisfy my instinctive hunt for proof of what I knew. The entity Michael was a Causal (or, Mental) Plane teacher no longer incarnating in the 3D. I was already aware that people at the level 'above' me did not incarnate in the physical plane,
It wasn't until I came into contact with the Monroe Institute via my publishers in 1992 that I discovered that Robert Monroe had mapped all these areas more specifically. He called them by specific names, and then said to a friend of mine about those names, 'don't get hung up on the labels; I had to call them something.' Why was I late to the party? Because I had read Bob's Journeys Out of the Body, and was not very impressed because astral travel, ho hum, doesn't everyone know how to do this?

One of the first clues I had that Bob had been onto something was when my editor came back from their Gateway program saying, ' I was AT your Theatre. It's not a metaphor' and proceeded to describe a section of the theatre in familiar and vivid detail. Apparently, he had thought up til then that it was a metaphor, or that I had ' made it up.' Since he had 'never heard' of the Theatre, Green Room, University, etc., in any of his extensive readings, he thought it was a metaphor I employed. I was very amused at this naivete, and pleased to have been validated once again.
Later on, TMI graduates like Bruce Moen and Robert Bruce further mapped experiences There and I saw that they 'got it'. I was impressed.
For those of you interested, the 'Focus Levels' -Monroe Institute nomenclature for states of consciousness and areas of living beyond the 3D- are here explained:

 In the Theatre, we joke to our incoming people at the re-orientation tour that Hell can be found under our stage, and proceed to open the trapdoor. But there are areas There which can be thought of as hells, for whatever religion you are that believes in that. See the Belief Systems Territories.

For those preferring the scientific, the planes of existence and dimensions are well-described by Drake Stephen. The Planes chart corresponds to the 10 dimensions science has discovered to exist, and the Dimensions chart to the enfoldment of those dimensions (i.e. the 3D is within the 4th, which is within the 5th and so on.)

The Monroe material, with all its specific jargon, sufficed for some time in explaining matters to others. Then my friend Cathleen, to whom Bob Monroe had said 'Don't get hung up on labels' gave me the books of Dr. Michael Newton, and here not only was vast confirmation of my work There, soul levels, and how we are defined from Source, but a curious map of the learning centre(s) there, which looked to my eyes like the Fibonacci spiral. The map had the same curve of the main rooms and hallway of the Theatre.

Curious, I asked friends of mine at the University There, who knew that was their centre, to draw it for me, the buildings' location. And, there too, was the Fibonacci spiral. I looked at the Town, and all the other Centres related to life in the 3D -many of which don't deal with Earth incarnations - as well as the Life Council centre, and all were in the shape of the Fibonacci spiral.

The Fibonacci spiral numbers radiate at a vibrational frequency of 528 Hertz. This is used by biochemists to repair broken DNA. It is also the frequency of Gregorian chants. You can listen to a presentation with this frequency underlying here.

So, what does this 'mean'? To me, it is simply confirmation that we're all getting the same information based on our individual experiences, there is a specific plan to the conformation of not simply the 3D but to other dimensions as well, based on mathematics, vibrational and tonal frequency (and thus music), and that if you are seeking this information, the truth can be known. But it might not be what you have been brought up to believe.

For further exploration of experiences There, please have a look at Steve Beckow's compilation of some older automatic writings from people who have transitioned and are describing the landscape There. This will take some time to read, but do start with the section of accounts from those who are 'deceased'. New Maps of Heaven.

Ensemble Cast

Before recording any discussions, I thought I should introduce you to the main people with whom I interact, and my places. These are the people I work with, study with, study under, live with, visit often, and regularly encounter.

My work interactions happen in either the Theatre, which is a form of the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane in London; or in the Life Council chambers, which are in an area nearby, where everyone on Earth does their immediate past-life review and pre-life processing. Think Defending Your Life. That was a humourous take on the area, and not far wrong.

My "personal life" interactions happen in a cabin in the EcoVillage, which is a fairly new living area at the border between the Upper Astral and the Mental Plane, convenient for all who happen by; in the Villa, a Georgian house on Lake Geneva, inhabited by souls who were formerly Franz Liszt and George Gordon, Lord Byron; and sometimes at my father's house in the mountains.

For simplicity's sake, I will confine myself to the English names these folks have had. They go by other names, and it's best not to be attached to any particular name.

My most common interactions are with my Spirit, Oversoul, or Higher Self, Claire. She/I-There is the Assistant Director of the Theatre, a teacher, and a junior member of the Life Councils (which means "watch and learn and once in a while you will be allowed to ask questions".)

Next are my teachers/guides. I have a Senior teacher, Franz, and a Junior, George. Franz is now a member of the Life Councils and working with the Committee(s) who generate the Big Picture scenarios in the 3D; George is the Director of the Theatre, and is learning to "create roles", that is, lifetimes such as yours and mine. My other teacher is Madame (Maggie), who was my first teacher, of elementals, and from whom I learned to manage psyches, both in creating mind-states and managing people who are incarnating (something akin to a psychologist.) Presently, I am learning to take on her role in teaching the infant Spirits elementals - how to navigate in holoworlds under supervision, so to get their sea legs in terms of interacting with others.

The other person I interact with most frequently is Amy, our Stage Manager, with whom I personally as a soul and several of Claire's other "me's" have known in incarnations as friends, relatives, cohorts, and admired figures.

On a personal note, I frequently have conversations with my Dad (Ben), my mother (Natalie), both of whom have transitioned from earthly life. Less often I have conversations with my mother-in-law (Lorraine), my grandmother (Helen, or Mudd), and sometimes old friends Ed Carter and Johnny.

For now, this will do. The Grand Tour is next.

Welcome!

This blog will serve as a journal, both of present and past experiences and communications with what may be called non-physical entities and places. These go by many names, and one of the purposes of this journal is to unite all the names and structure systems I have encountered into a cohesive and unified whole, to the best of my ability. I wish to be inclusive, and while I have studied most of the major world religions and belief systems, and will endeavour to use neutral language, you, dear reader, should know from the outset that my primary orientation is to Jungian analysis, the broad view of the ethnologist Joseph Campbell, the work of Robert Monroe and others of his coterie, and that of Dr. Michael Newton. This may sound rather scientific, but I am not a sceptic. I come to this interaction from the space of being a natural, lifelong mystic, for lack of a better term.

Your own experiences and responses as a reader are a valuable part of the conversation,
