These teachings, meditations and energetic transmissions were channeled by my friend Melinda during the years following 9/11. She held monthly gatherings which aligned with the cycles of the Moon, solstices and equinoxes.
I had the privilege of recording and transcribing these messages from the Spirit guides that spoke through her.
In looking back, I can see that they were preparing us for these times when our clarity and core strength is needed to move through the profound changes occurring on the planet into a new way of being.
Melinda died in 2010, and this is my tribute to her and the Spirit guides she channeled. It has been a labor of love to edit these recordings, and to distill out their messages of support, love, and empowerment.
Above all, these Spirit guides repeatedly say that we are not alone. The Sacred realms are here to assist us to the degree that we are willing.
The Spirit realm offers healing and support during times of challenge and sorrow. They encourage our connection with the natural world and the sacred elements, our own Higher Selves and Spirit guides. They invite us to cultivate a deepening relationship with the Sacred.
These transmissions carry their vibrations, and have the power to transform us to the degree that we are willing. Everyone who hears these words can receive their gifts.
Melinda began every gathering by calling in Sacred Space. However, only some of these invocations were recorded. So I have included a separate invocation here for those who wish to settle more deeply into a meditative state to receive these messages.
