Gather with a leader -- you need a leader or facilitator because
you cannot recall and direct at the same time. Lie comfortably on
the floor, breathing in and out together, merged in chaotic
meditation, which is to say no focus, no reaction: just like
staring into a fire.
Once everybody is comfortable, the leader sits up and lights
two white candles dedicated to memory. She burns a light
incense, such as frankincense or myrrh.
Leader: I (name) am calling the guides to lead us back
in time: Come Goddess in Your aspect of history, come
awareness before our birthtimes, come and reveal the
pictures in our minds, do not frighten us but heal.
Now the leader starts a countback in this way:
We are all going back to a year ago this time; meditate
and see what you see a year ago this time....
She describes each time period with a few well-known events
that we can all identify. For instance, 1980 was when Mt. St.
Helens erupted. The leader must be very sensitive to the space
of going back, also skilled in hypnosis because you have to use
deeper tools than conscious memory.
She leads you back five years, ten years and finally to your birth,
each time leaving enough silence to let the mind wander and
recall.
After she has led you back to your birthtime, there is a strong
tendency to rush the process and go to Egypt or Anatolia, where
the Amazons roamed, but you must flow, not race, with your
soul or you lose it.
We all go to the 19th century now...a time of revolution,
a time of artistic achievements (something like that, neither
too much nor too little). Where are you in 1890? 1880?
1870?
She leads back through the years, and sees if any episodes
come to mind. At this point she tells the participants to allow
their minds to pick up whatever messages may come forth,
and go with a vision if they get one.
This is a long and patient process, requiring at least a weekend,
so the leader should take a break after each century and let the
people write down what they experienced. Talking is forbidden
now; the silence is to be broken only by the leader. No food
should be eaten during this exercise. But do not push too hard;
it flows only if you remain calm.
After the exercise is complete, the participants should take a nap.
At this time many more things might come to them.
A modern discussion should not happen until the entire process
is finished, and everybody is enriched by the experience.
Returning: When the leader has reached farthest back in the
past, she tells the people it's time to return. She need not take
it step by step, century by century, as when backtracking.
She can simply say:
We have reached the end of our journey. Now we turn
back to our normal selves in the 21st century. We all
become as we were, a little smarter, a little more
compassionate towards ourselves.
Again, light the incense and the candles and say thanks:
Goddess of History, thank You for revealing to us
pictures of our older selves; we are returning now
to our times. Please bless us as we wake. We will
all feel refreshed and happy. It is done.
For those who love, time is eternity....
