An Intense Activation
By Sue Greenwald
I was hosting a spiritual retreat in Sedona. The last day of our retreat, our group went to Shamans Cave in Sedona. Back then, this was a “secret” cave that was more difficult to access, and the first time, it was very hard to locate. It took me multiple tries to find its location. This cave was a sacred place, where the Native Americans convened with the Star Nations. Leaders from all the local tribes would meet there. The cave feels special, but a bit energetically depleted. In recent years, people haven’t treated the cave with reverence; rather, it’s a place to party for many of them.
We did ceremony to lift the energy of the cave. We were told to dance in the cave, which we did barefoot on the cold cave floor. My daughter led this particular ceremony and meditation. She talked with many of the crystal beings and the extraterrestrials, and it was very special. It felt so fulfilling to be there with my group of friends in that location! There are UFO’s under many of the rocks throughout the Sedona area, and the Native Americans often worked with the Star Nations.
Because of the difficulty getting to the cave, and the excitement of being there with a group, I had prepared to stay in the cave for much of the day, but the ladies wanted to go shopping, since it was their last day in Sedona. Reluctantly, I took them to Tlaquepaque, an outdoor shopping and dining area, to get their souvenirs. I was upset and disappointed about having to leave this special cave so quickly. I was kind of just walking through the gallery, not really looking, as I was so disappointed. I walked through the shopping area, ending up in a gallery that displayed beautiful spiritual art. I was still upset about having to leave the cave and was just walking through the gallery, not really looking, as I was so disappointed.
I turned the corner in the gallery, saw a painting, and almost lost my mind. I couldn’t even get a complete sentence out! I was in shock for a while, and finally walked up to the artist, who luckily happened to be at the gallery. I asked the artist, Bearcloud, specifically where I was, and learned that I was in the Bearcloud Gallery. A docent came over to me, and explained the details of the painting, and the surrounding paintings, which were “blowups” to further show more details from the larger, primary painting.
I was still flipping out, and they must have thought I’d lost my mind! I contacted my two friends and my daughter to come to the Gallery immediately to see the painting. My friends had the same extreme reaction, their eyes bugging out. My daughter hung back a little and laughed at us!
The painting is called “The Alignment” and shows a planet with 3 moons aligning. It was explained to me that when the moons align, they light up and activate all the sacred sites in the entire galaxy. There were other accompanying paintings, which were explained to me, as they further defined the larger painting. I’m calling the larger painting a depiction of home planet. It has a pyramid complex on it, and giant statues around them, that are like databases for all knowledge. You stand in front of the statues and the information that you’re requesting will automatically be downloaded to you. There was a piece that showed where creation occurred.
My friends and I had received a very profound activation. Our energy was expanded dramatically at that point! My friend actually purchased that painting, and we hung it in the lobby to my yoga studio so that others could experience the energy of it. When it was hanging in the yoga studio, people would either walk right by it, or stop and study it. Since then, I’ve talked with Bearcloud several times about that painting, and hope to someday own a copy of it.
An activation is when something you experience rapidly expands your consciousness, like it wakes you up at the cellular level. It’s something that speaks to your cellular memory. Unfortunately, activations can’t be planned or controlled. It’s interesting that I’ve received so many activations, especially in the last 20 years, that allow me to have an “inner knowing”. It’s a very exciting feeling!
