Dooling Sacred space-time technology gives us the capacity to alter reality. Science is currently monitoring the decrease in magnetic fields, which hold the grids of concensus reality in place. As the magnetic fields are decreasing, the heart beat of Earth is pulsating more rapidly. We are dancing to a changing rhythm, a new frequency, reality is shifting more rapidly. When we are bring our full attention to our presence in the present, spirit incarnates through us. There are particularly powerful moments and places for this to happen. Working with sacred space, one becomes aware that if the space is powerful enough, time becomes a less important factor. The reverse is also true: that a particularly potent time can focus power in any receptive place. The combination of both is the juiciest. Earth is our sacred space and home center, the greater body and ground of our experience. Intimately related to this unique planet, we are wrapped in the glittering atmosphere of larger cosmic space. The sky is our sacred clock, timing the celestial choreography that spirals in longer and shorter cycles. As members of the local solar system, we on Earth are Sun dancers along with our planetary neighbors. The Sun as our common center and vital light, and our Moon, which reflects that light in inner and outer rhythmic tides, are primary factors in sacred timing. We know how powerful new and full Moons, Solstices, Equinoxes and eclipses are in ceremony and ritual.

Extractions: Archangel Michael My article in the Summer Solstice issue, " Of Spirals and Rings ," and this article are both adapted from my book, actually a work-in-progress, Empowering Yourself and Working with Nature through Dowsing, which I am writing to reveal my insights about the unseen world of subtle energies, how they affect the physical world we live in, and how we can "call in" these energies-working knowingly with God and with Nature. This article is a sequel to "Of Spirals and Rings," so I encourage you to read my earlier article if you have not done so. I hope this will turn into an ongoing series, which will be adapted excerpts from my book. If you'd like a personalized copy of a preliminary version of my new book, contact me or you can visit a beginning of a Web page Most illustrations have been created by Will Fahnoe. The graphic on the left, entitled "Archangel Michael", was created for me 10 years ago by a dear friend, Debbie Gillespie. Debbie is extremely intuitive and her art often seems to predict the future; I wasn't into spirals then, but alas, it seems that spirals now dominate my life. They are certainly abundant in Nature. I feel that all natural energies form spirals. In fact, I believe that the Universe was created with spirals, or, more accurately, with vortices. Although this piece of art doesn't relate specifically to this article, it does relate to all of my work. It is the art I use for the cover of my book.

Extractions: by Trudy J. Morgan-Cole As a perpetual student and sometime teacher, I shape my life around the rhythm of the academic year. September is the real New Year, the time of clean desks, fresh loose-leaf and resolutions. After the dark winter months, anticipation points me towards June with its long-awaited release into the lazy hiatus of summer. I live in a part of the world where the seasonal rhythm echoes that pattern: I luxuriate in warm, sunny summer days and begin the serious business of life as the air grows chilly and the leaves change color. Human beings need rhythm and pattern to their days. As C.S. Lewiss canny demon Screwtape puts it: The humans live in time, and experience reality successively. To experience much of it, therefore, they must experience many different things; in other words, they must experience change. And since they need change, the Enemy [God]has made change pleasurable to them . ButHe has balanced the love of change in them by a love of permanence. He has contrived to gratify both tastes together on the very world He has made, by that union of change and permanence which we call Rhythm. He gives them the seasons, each season different yet every year the same, so that spring is always felt as a novelty yet always as the recurrence of an immemorial theme. He gives them in His Church a spiritual year; they change from a fast to a feast, but it is the same feast as before. Neither the academic year nor the calendar year is specifically relevant to my spiritual life. Seeking a spiritual rhythm to my time, Im grateful for the Adventist heritage of a Sabbath-centered week. Seventh-day Adventists have been able to hold on to something that most Christians have lost: a week oriented around sacred time, with Sabbath at its heart. I read books like Lauren Winners Mudhouse Sabbath and Tilden Edwards Sabbath Time and recognize that many Christians are struggling to reclaim a gift Ive had all along.
Sacred Time | A Sermon By Jan Carlsson-Bull
We are called to observe sacred time in a calendar that is strange for some of us. At the heart of this sacred time is the notion of teshuvah.

Extractions: SACRED TIME by Jan Carlsson-Bull Rosh Hashanah September 6, 2002 We stand on the eve of the Days of Awe, Yamim Noraim , ten days, which illumine the Jewish calendar as a sacred time for reflection, prayer, and repentance. Tonight we observe Erev Rosh Hashanah, the eve of the beginning of the year 5763. Ten days hence we will observe Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. These Days of Awe commence with feasting and conclude with fasting. Such is the progression of the spiritual journey at the heart of what is also known as the High Holy Days. Rosh Hashanah is not just the beginning of a new year. It is a celebration of the beginning of the very Beginning of Creation itself. It is a time that matters profoundly to each of us whether we acknowledge it or not, just as God matters profoundly to each of us in whatever form we acknowledge, deny, or adapt the construct of God. We can all breathe more deeply when standing on a threshold of another chance afforded by a new year, by whatever markers that year is determined. And we can all sigh deeply when we consider that meditation, reflection, prayer, and repentance are needs that bind the human community. Of course I can never consider this holiday without calling forth the bond with my firstborn, whose very name is Shana. ‘You know, Mom," she said to me just a few days ago, "I know my name means ‘year’ and I always used to think, How boring to have a name that just means plain old year. But as I grow older, I love my name, because it calls to mind the cycle of seasons and time itself as a cycle. And I’m a woman; my bodily rhythms are cyclical. I love my name, Shana!"

FAMOUS CHURCHES, even when beautiful, are often disappointing: smaller than expected, more shopworn, and a great deal noisier. Whether it's Canterbury or St. Paul's, Notre Dame or St. Peter's, the dome is usually lower than you thought, the atmosphere more polluted with tourism. You begin to wonder whether such places can finally be used up, drained of the mystery that once made them electric. Then there is the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem. The guidebooks carefully prepare the visitor for disappointment (Bedaeker calls it "a church of moderate size surrounded by a confused huddle of other structures" , but there is simply no way to avoid the shock of an actual encounter. We can only imagine what Constantine built in the early fourth century, what the Persians destroyed in the seventh, what a Byzantine emperor reconstructed in the 11th and what the Crusaders restored in the 12th. An earthquake in 1927 inflicted terrible damage, but so too have the various moves toward restoration that since 1958 have been the joint responsibility of the six churches with historic "rights" to the Sepulchre: Latin Catholics, Greek Orthodox, Armenians, Syrians, Copts and Ethiopians.

Extractions: We all need space, we all need time to ourselves.In Exodus3:15- Word of God:When the Lord saw that Moses was coming closer, he called him from the middle of the bush and said: "Moses, Moses", he answered, "Yes, here I am"God said, " Do not come any closer. Take off your sandals because you are standing on holy ground." Indeed, one little corner, a fraction of time that you allow yourself can do wonders to your being, to get in touch with your inner self and give expression to your faith. A space that allows you to reflect onyour life, on your day, on what tomorrow may bring. A small place where you can shed a tear, or breathe a sigh of relief, quieten a troubled mind or savor a few victories. Sacred Space It is a place to reflect and contemplate on what is important to you, to allow you to connect with your inner self , without interference, and in solitude.It could be as simple as a table top, a corner of the bedroom, a place just for you to enjoy few precious moments alone. No, it does not require a whole room, or many hours. Is there a small table top, a spot on the dresser, an isolated corner , an idle spot that collects clutter and dust? If you are on the road a lot, would you not want to carry something to evoke that feeling of connectedness? Joseph Campbell has this to say about sacred time, sacred space:You must have room or a certain hour of the day or so where you do not know what is in the morning paper. A place where you can simply experience and bring forth what you are or might be.

Index Maaberuna The refuge of a large number of civilian citizens, among whom a few armed men, to the Church of the Nativity during the incursion of the city by the Israel Defence Forces stirred an international outcry that triggered a number of questions about the fact of seeking refuge in a place of worship for protection. I do not wish to trail, here, behind news reports, whose only aim is to highlight the thrilling and the unusual with a view to draw universal attention. The question is much more important and deeper than we anticipate. Therefore, I shall try to embark on the discussion of an idea that has long turned up over and over again in my mind. It is that of the sacred place, while leaving the concept of the sacred time aside, as I hope to lay a firm foundation for the idea of the sacred human being. In the Holy Bible we also find this concept in some texts that spoke about places of refuge for killers who did not commit a premeditated murder or the innocent who are accused, as they all could get there for protection so that their lives are spared and they avoid harm. In Deuteronomy , God said to the people: Thou shalt separate three cities for thee in the midst of thy land And this is the case of the slayer, which shall flee thither, that he may live; Whoso killeth his neighbour ignorantly God approved this law so That innocent blood be not shed in thy land, and so blood be upon thee. These were the cities of refuge. (Review Chapter 19: 2-10)

Extractions: SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER REPORTER Not long ago, the Islamic holy month of Ramadan would have passed unnoticed by most Americans. P-I GRAPHIC Ramadan: A Primer (pdf format) But in the wake of terrorist attacks and the subsequent bombing in Afghanistan, Ramadan has been catapulted into the spotlight. Some commentators have suggested halting U.S.-led air strikes in Afghanistan amid concern that they would anger Muslims and weaken the support of Islamic partners in the coalition against terrorism. "One would certainly wish that the operation would not go on in Ramadan," Pakistan's President Gen. Pervez Musharraf said this month. "It will have definite negative effects around the Islamic world." For the 15,000 Muslims in the U.S. military, Ramadan will be celebrated as usual, even as their leaders continue to prosecute the war on terrorism. Many say they simply don't see a link between warfare and observance of their religion.

Nor were the ancients disconnected from the earth's many natural cycles, as we are today, including those of agriculture or the animal world. Technology did not hold the ancients captive, nor ignorant. Holy days, (known today as holidays), planting and harvesting times, seasonal changes, and the start of the new year were all signaled by the ordered movements of the heavens.

Extractions: Islam had deep roots in the Ottoman Empire. The Koran provided a common worldview for everyday life, on the basis of which the natives interpreted both their personal and social experience. Religion also had the pragmatic role of constructing the daily work cycle of Tuna Vilayet. The inhabitants scheduled their day by the cry of the ' immaun' from the mosque. The prayer call served to determine what time it was, thus making time acquire a religious rather than a secular meaning. Christianity and Islam vary in what they teach about the importance or insignificance of time and the substance of temporality and eternity. These are concepts inseparably bound up with the ideas of life and death and the ceremonies accompanying giving birth and dying. The Ottoman traditions concerning the latter obviously impressed Barkley very much for he gives detailed information about Turkish funerals. His interest in graveyards is maybe due to his 'climate of opinion': Victorian England seemed to be preoccupied with funerals, cemeteries and corpses. Another reason was surely the irritating fact that burial grounds were all around the settlements. This either brought delays in the working plan when the line had to avoid them, or cost Barkley time and nerves to get a permission to build the railway straight through. Hullo! What' s up now?

Extractions: Within that linear perception, most Pagans acknowledge that time spirals, having a quasi-cyclical nature. Rather than each experience moment being completely different from the ones before and the ones after, there are these moments form cyclical patterns. Yet, we do not experience exactly the same moments over and over. In nature, these are conceptualized by the cycles of birth, death and rebirth of each life, the yearly cycles of seasons or star-pattern change, the monthly cycles of lunar phases, and the daily cycles of day and night. We experience temporal cycles in our domestic lives, in our work lives, in our community/environmental relationships, and in our spiritual lives. Our bodies have daily, monthly, yearly, and international rhythms. Our challenge is to be observant of those cycles and learn to live in harmony with these cycles. One of the ways we can do this is by constructing a personal calendar of our own meaningful dates and daily, monthly, and seasonal indicators. We can do this in two parts:

It is that of the sacred place, while leaving the concept of the sacred time aside, as I hope to lay a firm foundation for the idea of the sacred human being. When we use the word sacred (Haram in Arabic, the language of the land,) we mean to express respect due to a place or to a person because of the particular value of each, especially if that were related to a religious or divine importance or sanctity. The word also means protected, unassailable and inviolable or that which should be given special regard and extreme care. Haram, the word in Arabic, has the same meanings as in Latin languages as well. Therefore, we say el Haram el Sharif, The Noble Sanctuary, the sacred church and the sacred altar, and the Haram of the University meaning the inviolable campus, the Haram border areas, meaning no mans land as they remain inviolable and we name women as Hareem plural of Haram as they are protected and unassailable.
