Remember
Have you ever had one of those “AHA” moments? You know, when you read something,
or see something, or hear
something
that acts like a key in a lock, and the tumblers
just fall into place? A simple
phrase can open a realm of possibilities and
awareness. A while ago, such a thing
happened to me, and it made
a profound change in my perspective. Things I had known, and thought I understood,
became clearer and connected in such a way
that it was amazing I hadn’t seen the
correlations before. Yes, it was an “AHA!”
moment, but
it was also a “Duh” moment!
I had been at a workshop presented by a Pagan Psychologist,
and he took the entire group through a non-hypnotic Past Life Regression. It was interesting, and I thoroughly enjoyed the
experience, until he said to “turn around and go back!” Well, I turned around, but instead of
retracing my steps, I found myself
standing before a temple. It was shocking at first, not at all what I
had expected; yet it felt right that I was there. Entering the temple,
I saw a group of people preparing for Ritual.
My impression was that this Ritual was
for the purpose of sending forward, to future generations, the message
to “REMEMBER”. It was like tying a
string around our fingers, so that at a future time,
our reincarnated selves would have the knowledge of what our lives, and our
purpose had been in this ancient time.
As I left the
workshop, I knew something significant had
happened, but it took time to realize just how
much of an impact
this “memory”
had on my life. Talking with others, over the past year, I’ve
found many who have had a similar
experience. We’ve worked out some
possibilities, and maybe even some
probabilities, which seem to fit our awareness
of Craft teachings. We’ve come
to the supposition that in the Temples
of the Ancestors, they knew that their culture and lifestyle were
changing. They also knew that all things
come in cycles. So in their efforts to preserve the old ways,
and teachings, they devised a plan to impart their
knowledge by charging the practitioners with the responsibility of remembering
the old ways at a future time in their
reincarnations. We think that they used
astrological signs to trigger the memories. Over the centuries, there have been many
who kept the old ways alive by remembering,
and then researching, and passing on the awareness they found. Today, there is a great imperative
for more to find the old pathways, and bring
them forward into our future. The time is
now, to REMEMBER!
