[DiosasAncianos2012] Stone People .. Crystal harmonies...

[Guest guest]

A few weeks ago, I posted a question to another group requesting 'stone people

stories' as there was some discussion going on about 'the standing ones 'a

commonly used phrase in the Native American culture for the trees. I was

curious about peoples stories about 'the stone people " . The answers were

interesting and exciting, each having a significant lesson or reminder for me.

I've been intending to post to this group and just hadn't gotten to it, but as

the discussion today is focused on this I will do so now. It is interesting to

note that in the NA culture there is no word for 'religion'. There is

considered no separateness as in Mitakuye Oyasin meaning 'All My Relations'

which includes mankind, the four-leggeds, the winged ones, the creepy crawlies,

the standing ones and the stone people. there are many names for the

Omnipresent force that unites creation including God, Creator, the All Knowing

and many more. If any one can add to this please do. Enjoy!

About crystals....

they are actually one of the few things here on earth mother that

are created as close to molecularly " perfect " by design... that is

why they have so many uses...they can channel and magnify light and

sound, and when one is of good balance they can also accelerate our

connection with the infinite. my Arapaho Cheyenne brother was

involved in a ceremony that allowed the participants to drink the

trapped water from inside a crystal...I told him he was lucky it was

water...some friends of mine have a huge white and clear quartz

stone named " bubba " ... weighs about twenty pounds...its an amazingly

jovial being... you can't help but laugh when you place him in your

lap...

a few years ago I bought a quartz crystal out of a new age hippy

shop for reasons only known to the crystal at the time, I have

several in a dream catcher so I didnt really need it...about two

nights later a huge storm kicked up in Mesquite Texas and I went out

on the pation and asked creator to put the energy of the

storm in-side the crystal...all that thunderbeing light and

beautiful cleansing water...storms are about renewal, not

destruction. I gifted the crystal to a woman I felt needed it as she

has a hard time real-eyesing her medicine, she had to have surgery

in a few days and I told her to keep the crystal nearby, she had a

very difficult surgery and the doctors actualy came out and said " if

you have anyone in your family who prays...pray now " ...I learned

about this the day after from her mother, and I asked her how the

weather was during the operation, after a few moments of thought she

said " there was a huge thunderstorm that came thru the area during

the operation " ...I never question spirit when it comes to compelling

me to do things I need to do when it asks, and it wasnt me who put

the storm in the crystal nor was it the storm that saved her life...

just the four letter word we sometimes miss in our original

instructions...L-O-V-E.

Namaste'

first profound stone entity experience came when I was in a

metaphysical book store and picked up a quartz cluster that would

not let me put it own. I debated over the idea of taking it home,

until guidance told me to put it over my head. At that instant a

column of light wider than my body came through me and I have never

been the same. When I don't understand the message that a

particular one is sharing I ask for a dream and low and behold, it

happens. They are so wise and so insistent when they have something

to share. The aspect of having a memory of all of Earth's history

intrigues me. I was just in a consignment store where I espied a

large coral cluster that got my attention. My first thought

was 'where can I display it with honor?' then realized that it

didn't matter, I could gift it to someone if need. The checkout

lady laughed and said the piece had only be out for ten minutes and

we both

happy that intuition led me into the little store. Coral is

considered a fossil and connection with the Ancestors, so I will

need to dwell on that until I understand the connection.

> Stomping Elk story about their importance in Medicine Lodge

reminds me of a time that we counted the elders (stones) many, many

times before lighting the fire trying to make sure that we had the

correct count. We knew that coyote had been hanging around and

wondered when he would show up. We all had a good laugh when there

was one extra stone in the mound and dedicated it to coyote and

thanked him for his playfulness.

says 'it is our stories that keep up alive'. I truly believe that

and always feel a sense of awe and joy when the words that make up

the story come alive and touch in me the sacred.

Ancient Ones talking, so slipping through the garden I would walk

some distance to sit at their feet.

standing there, at what appeared like the edge of the world staring

out into the universe, to the stars in the sky. They were Stone

People and they all had the appearance of Merlin's with their

pointed hats and gowns and staffs in their hands. I would just sit

there amongst them listening to the murmur of them talking, and in

my minds eye I knew them to be from another dimension, a dimension

in which they were from the council of Merlin's...

Mountain, right after the Stone People laughed and told me that I

left my memories in a man, I was asking for directions on where I

was supposed to go to plead my case and weep for the Mountain. A

little bird flew up and said 'follow me' So not looking where I was

going I followed that little bird to the edge of the Mountain and

then I was taken sideways across the Mountain until I found myself

sitting on a stone on the side of the Mountain. I began my prayer,

began weeping my tears for the Mountain, for the sacredness of the

Indian walk, for the ones who remember that this a Holy Mountain, a

Place of Peace where all the tribes used to come to for Ceremony

because something would happen to them when they were here (that I

believe is called sanctification)

became aware of an ommmmm noise. And the more I prayed and wept the

louder this Ommmmmmm became until it completely drowned out the

sound of my prayer and I felt like one little tiny voice amongst the

great Ommmmmmmmm. So when I finished my prayer I turned around to

see who had come to pray with me as I wept in my tears for the

Mountain and for all the Tribes of people who no longer remember to

come to her for the gift she bestows upon them when they come to the

Place of Peace, I turn and find that I am sitting right in midst of

a great Stone Amphitheater, so many there praying with me,

Grandfathers and Grandmothers, mothers and father, aunts and uncles

and little children, all with their faces pointed out on the edge of

world.

an aspect I had not considered. I think of them as wise teachers

and have been told that they are entities who have finished there

work on Earth and return only with love and not judgment. I once

had the experience of sitting in a group meditation where large

crystals circled a 'grid' where flickering candles caused the

stones to appear like a circle of elders. For the first 45 minutes

of the meditation a voice kept repeating itself. . 'We are not

separate from you, we are the same as you. . here to be of

service " . No matter what I did this same mantra repeated over and

over. The format of our meditation that a bell was tapped at the 45

minute mark. At that point the message changed to " Be human, be

happy, have fun, " . I still laugh when I think of how it took such a

profound experience to get my attention and remind me that I needed

to begin to play and laugh more often. Yes, it's a good day to

call DNA shift experiences when the Stone People have gotten their

attention in unusual ways. A book by Twyla Nitsch and Jamie Sams

called " Other Council Fires Were Here Before Ours " came to me some

time later sharing with me how deeply these stone teachings can

affect us. Again, Mahalos for sharing. Mitakuye Oyasin from the

heart. In Light )'( Skye

in another life, they can answer questions we might have from when

once before we spoke to them.. I had that happen a few years ago

when I was sent to Sacred Mountain to weep for her. Spent the whole

week climbing the mountain asking the trees and stones if the knew

where I left my memories from when I had lived here before.. and

after a week I found myself up on top of the Mountain, in the place

of the great Stone

in any life I would have thought I have to leave my memories

somewhere so that after the great sleep, when I come back to help

restore her I will be able to find them again... so I was telling

them this, laying my body across them in contemplation over where I

left my memories, knowing a spunky girl would do this, when they

said with a smile and a laugh, " You left your memories inside of a

man. " Then they showed me pictures of the time when we knew it was

time to leave the Mountain, the group who came to keep our memories

through the time of the great sleep were known as the Phoenix

Rising..
