The Activation Workshops are going to update the higher dimensional encoding and calibrations of the Divine Diamond® Sacred Star, Seed of Life, Flower of Life and Metatron Cube into our systems. Opening up our quantum abilities with a resonance pattern more closely aligned with the 5D and higher dimensional energetic Trinity alignment that is happening. This alignment is with our earth/solar system, galactic and universal system cores. Our work with the Divine Diamond® continues to align and connect us to this mysterious quantum non-dual core energy, the “One” that appears as a trine of energy. This trinity is in everything in creation, molecular, solar and galactic systems. This energy is known as a torrid. We in the Activation process are cultivating our relationship with this living conscious source energy through the Seven Sacred Attributes and their sacred geometric relationship with our hearts.

Workshops are 4 hours each and at completion of 4 workshops you will receive a facilitator’s certificate. (You will be laying down, come prepared and please bring a bottle of water).

Paul Selig Channels the Ascension Energies of the Word
Paul Selig

This evening Paul will bring through and attune people to the frequency of the Word, which Paul’s guides describe as “God in Action.” This is the elevated Christed energies now coming to the Earth, that have not been available to us before. The purpose is to develop and sustain higher levels of consciousness to move through the emotional and physical blocks that may be keeping you from manifesting your own divine nature. Paul’s work is deeply transformative, the energy he works with is extremely palpable.

Everyone will receive the attunement, where participants are supported in moving to the next level of personal and planetary evolution. “You are the first in a generation of conscious beings coming into form and you will make it possible for those that follow to exist more easily in the higher frequencies that are now available. This is a gift, but this is a massive change. It’s a tidal wave of light ascending into you as you ascend into it.” – from I Am the Word, a Channeled Text, by Paul Selig.

Friday, December 7th
Tao of Male and Female – Sacred Union
Rev. John Smith
7:00pm – 9:30pm

With the rapidly shifting energies of present time, we are acutely aware of the need to recall the Divine Feminine in order to balance the masculine energy that has been dominant for so many centuries. Yet, as our awareness evolves, we can see past the human duality of man vs. woman, and appreciate the Taoist perspective that opposition is a “surface illusion”, and the transcendent reality that the Divine Feminine and Divine Masculine require each other.

To truly bring balance to our planet and to ourselves, it is time to call in the potent spiritual potential of both energies. In this experiential and didactic workshop we will reacquaint ourselves with the beauty and power of both masculine and feminine energy from a variety of religious perspectives, and explore ways to balance these energies within ourselves and in our world.

John M. Smith, LCSW has been a practicing psychotherapist for over 33 years. In addition to his traditional training, John has developed skills in many areas of therapeutic intervention including Reiki, Psychodrama and Thought Field Therapy. He is also certified as a Laughter Yoga Trainer and Laughter Yoga Leader. John was recently ordained as an Interfaith Minister (2012) after attending the International School for Interfaith Studies (ISIS) in New York City, and he is the Director of the newly formed Inner Faith Sanctuary in La Jolla, Ca, offering counseling to heal religious trauma, and assisting individuals both to reclaim and embody their sacred path.

$50. Please RSVP to ISISinterfaith@gmail.com

We all play a role in the Rebirth of our planet. The power is within each of us to heal the planet as well as each other….through love.

Join us as we celebrate the Spiritual Rebirth of our planet through music and dance that is uplifting to your body and soul.

Day of – Alignment – Anchoring – Transformation (“Da’at”)

With Jodi Serota, Celia Fenn & Maryanne Savino,
Inter-Dimensional Music by Jonathan Sherrill
7:00pm – 10:00pm

A major vibrational portal is opening affecting the Earth & all her inhabitants. Transmissions of higher frequencies will infuse and shower us all with higher resonances of light, awakening us to a greater embodiment of our Divine Presence in physical form.

Da’at, in the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, represents the hidden mysteries and unification of knowledge and wisdom. This is a time of true revelation for full embodiment of the higher truths.

This evening of the 12-12-12 is another necessary energetic recalibration. This will continue to prepare us to hold the full frequency of love through the open heart, enabling us to gently allow for the necessary shifts for movement toward unity consciousness or open-hearted collaboration.
Join us as we gather together with The Hierarchies of Light, enjoying a deeper preparation for mastery.

Receive: *Higher Consciousness Transmissions of Love. *Soundscape Journey with Crystal Bowls, Ocean & Turtle Drums. *Group Channeling – Archangel Michael through Celia Fenn. *Sacred Awakening Temple Dance Ceremony – Maryanne Savino. *Channeled Vibrational Sound/Light Activations & Initiations through Jodi Serota. *Inter-Dimensional Music by Composer/Musician Jonathan Sherrill.

Wednesday, December 12th
* Special Star Gate Event *
“I Am Presence’ Alignment Workshop” (on the 12/12 Star Gate)
Facilitated by Anthony Citro
7:00pm – 10:00pm

This important moment in our collective history that is the 12/12 Star Gate can be likened to riding in a roller coaster car and pivoting at the top of the incline, the moment before the ride begins…the descension down the track, which can be exhilarating and enervating! This is the ‘moment’ we are in…when there is no turning back and the ride will progress, whether we close our eyes and scream through it, or throw our arms in the air and enjoy the g-forces at work as we travel along. And as we evolve, we can now shift our focus towards our own inner resources…our own individualized ‘GOD SPARK’ which resides within our High Heart Chakra, that which many call the ‘I AM PRESENCE’.

Here, through the Grace and Etheric Presence of Sanat Kumara and His Divine Complement, the Lady Venus, you will be encouraged to embrace a permanent openness of HEART…thus discovering and realizing a conscious alignment with your own Divinity. This is the road to empowerment – through the High Heart, living and feeling your I AM Presence as the Light shining and dispersing the Dark, transforming all to LOVE, being transparent and authentic in all things and in all ways.

Tonight, with the assistance of our Planetary Logos, who exude the quality and essence of Unconditional Love, you will receive an intense downloading of Galactic Light, unraveling dormant DNA and expanding your capacity to create a reality of Love, from the space of LOVE…for yourself, the planet and all sentient beings, irregardless of resistance from those not yet ready to do so.

* You may prepare for the workshop if you would like by viewing the ‘I AM PRESENCE’ video linked here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8O_dJUOK4Y

Exchange: $33.00. Register: AscensionLightSource@live.com / 212.726.2761.

A Whirling Night of Stars 9th Annual NYC Rumi Celebration
Whirling/Turn Class 6:45 pm; Zikr/Remembrance 7:30pm

“Now is the time to unite soul and world; now is the time for sunlight dancing, united with the shadows.” Mevlana Jelaluddin Rumi

Music, mystic poetry, whirling dervishes, and singing sacred phrases comprise this meditative evening. Everyone is welcome; no experience is necessary. Mevlana Jelaluddin Rumi was for many years America’s best-selling poet. As his funeral procession moved through the streets of 13th century Konya, Turkey, at sunset on a snowy winter evening, his family and closest colleagues were joined by throngs of Jews, Christians, and Muslims, all claiming that Rumi’s heart illuminated their sacred traditions. His spiritual realization continues; over seven centuries later whirling dervishes still turn toward their hearts, inspired by his example, inspiring friendship among those of many religions and paths worldwide.

“What will it take to get over admiring the jug and actually drink the water?”
Mevlana Jelaluddin Rumi

This event is part of a weekend-long “Urban Dervish Celebration” sponsored by NYC Sufi Ruhaniat Int’l and Nur Ashki Jerrahi Sufi Circles.

Information: (646) 924-9957; halway@comcast.net (Space contribution: Turn Class $5; Zikr $15).

Body Language – The Essence of Non-Verbal Communication
Megan Gouldner
7:00pm – 9:00pm

The Essence of Non-Verbal Communication: 
Non-Verbal communication cannot be faked. You may be familiar with information such as how to hold your body a certain way, steeple your hands or shake hands just so in order to appear confident and in control. But the truth is that such tricks aren’t likely to work unless what you are truly FEELING is confident and in charge. 
You cannot control all of the signals you are constantly sending out about what you are really thinking or feeling. Our deep subconscious thoughts effect the subtle energy of our bodies sending messages much louder than what our gross movements contain.

To truly understand Non-Verbal Communication, you must become adept at sensing, FEELING, the messages your own body sends out in response to others. And to learn how to communicate most effectively you must continuously master the art of listening.

Join Megan Gouldner for an enlightening evening as she discusses the subtle keys to effective Non-Verbal Communication.

Fee: Pre- register by November 30th – $30.00 – after 11/30 or at the door $45.00. To attend and register call Maureen @215-431-8838 or maureenmalone@earthlink.net

Angelic Circle of Peace – Celebrating the Winter Solstice and New Beginnings!!
Rev. Barbara & special guest Lloyd Strayhorn
7:00pm – 9:30pm

December is a month of going inward. It’s a time of reflection, releasing, clearing, gift giving, and making resolutions for the coming year. In this month the winter solstice, the element of Earth, is the exact same date the Mayan calendar ends… it’s an ‘auspicious’ date that we’ve anticipated as a milestone in planetary evolution. And, now it’s here!!! In addition, 12/12/2012 in numerology adds to the master number 11 which represents, among other things, the transformation from the physical to the spiritual… it’s also the number 2; the healer’s number. Clearly, now more than ever, we must understand that we are not the body, we are Divine in physical form. And, we absolutely have the power to heal our lives and allow our Divine Essence to be fully present as a Golden Age ushers in a new reality on Earth…. not an ending, but rather, new beginnings!

Join with others in this last circle of 2012 as we set the tone for the exciting years ahead. We embrace the winter solstice theme (death and rebirth) with a ceremony to help us release the things that no long serve us… we cannot move forward into a new consciousness with old patterns; they simply won’t fit. Attunements, inspirational Angel cards and Channeled messages for everyone in the circle will be followed by world renowned numerologist, Lloyd Strayhorn, who will offer insightful predictions for all.

Release, let go and be open to receiving, and as you do so you become a part of an expanding collective consciousness that is the light of LOVE and all that is good!
Feel free to bring your crystals or other personal items to place on the altar for a blessing. And, as this is a celebration, you’re invited to bring a pot luck dish to add to the festivities. We close the evening with a toast to the canvas of infinite possibilities from which we can all create new beginnings. We are the infinite light of OneLOVE!

Because this is a special event, please RSVP by December 17th.

$25.00 donation in advance is preferred online at www.sanctuaryofdivinelight.com/exchange. Or cash at the door. For more info contact Rev Barbara at (718) 863-1553 or bdominick55@hotmail.com.

The Art of Channeling Step I
Angela Aim
6:30pm – 8:00pm

Follow your longing and receive everything you wish for! Do you get guidance all the time but have trouble trusting it because you think you are making it up? Do you ever find yourself saying something to someone, without knowing where it comes from, only to find that it was the perfect thing to say? Do you have an inner spiritual knowing but not always able to put it into words?

Are you a healer who helps others with your intuition, and would you like to fine tune that gift? This workshop is designed to offer you practical guides and suggestions for ways of connecting to your Higher self and world around you.
We will learn How to: * Open up to receive and start the Channel; * Follow the flow and discover more treasures your way; * Let go and let the Divine transform your life; *Ground “the light,” and experience the present moment; *Raise our vibrations by transforming our lives.

We’ll also practice and learn how to trust and express ourselves, so after the end of the workshop you will walk away with a new found confidence in your own abilities. This workshop is suitable for beginners/students at all levels so everyone can unfold at their own pace.

Angela Aim is Graduate of Kairos institute of Sound Healing, Light Workers Association of Las Vegas, Sedona Shamanic School, and Power Brain Center of NY, she also has a Master Degree in Education and Psychology.
