Dolphins, The Chelas of the Seas
“Dolphins teach us that in attuning to the rhythms and patterns of nature, we can learn true communication with the wisdom of All That Is and share this wisdom with others.”
~Author Unknown
Dolphins are peaceful sentient beings. They activate and anchor Light grids of harmonic resonance, which are essential elements for the Earth ascension.
They are the Chelas, or guardians, of the Light Temples of the Sea since time immemorial.
Little is known about the interaction from the dolphins with Atlantis except that they were a connective and essential part of that civilization.
Dolphins are known to transmit healing frequencies and vibrations through their Auric fields. They have the power to heal and clean the dark spots that develop on other beings extra-physical bodies through a very gentle and loving system of Healing. This is why there are so many therapeutic “swimming with the dolphins” programs.
Dolphins open people’s heart and give lightness to their souls. Only with an open heart can a person can activate soul communication. The soul facilitates peaceful coexistence in the harmonic vibration of God/Goddess/All That Is: The frequency of Unconditional Love.
The Dolphins are our active Spiritual partners. They are Sentinels, keepers of the “old ways” guarding the place between the portals of space-time and time-space.
Dolphins are the Light beings that have been spiritually entrusted with:
- Elevating the vibration of the animal kingdoms
- Moving within the Ebb and Flow of Life
- Bringing Balance with the Light and the Dark
- Being the bridge between Humans and the Ocean
- Rescuing the souls of the Shipwrecked
- Mediating between the Living and the Dead
- Anchoring the Platinum Liquid Light
- Expanding your communication with all of your Being
- Bringing Joy and Self-awareness
- Turning Dreams into Reality
“It is an important and popular fact
that things are not always what they seem. For instance, on the planet
Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins
because he had achieved so much – the wheel, New York, wars and so on –
whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water
having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed
that they were far more intelligent than man – for precisely the same
reasons.”

Gnome
A gnome is a mythological / fictional humanoid creature characterized by its extremely small size and subterranean lifestyle.[1] The word gnome is derived from the New Latin gnomus. It is often claimed to descend from the Greek γνώσις gnosis, "knowledge", but more likely comes from genomos "earth-dweller", in which case the omission of e is, as the OED calls it, a blunder.
Paracelsus includes gnomes in his list of elementals, as earth elementals. He describes them as two spans high, and very taciturn.[2] It is possible that Paracelsus simply made the name up. Sometimes they are seen as a type of fairy, though at other times are seen as a distinct species in their own right.
Gnomes feature in the legends of many of central, northern and eastern European lands by other names: a kaukis is a Prussian gnome, and barbegazi are gnome-like creatures with big feet in the traditions of France and Switzerland. Further east, tengu are sometimes referred to as winged gnomes.
According to certain medieval beliefs, Gnomes were deformed, usually with a hunchback, and were led by their king, Gob, who ruled with a magic sword.[3]
Today, Gnomes are traditionally thought of as being small, bearded and wearing pointed, colourful, conical hats. They live in natural areas close to the Earth and care for wildlife. They are more benevolent than other folkloric creatures such as goblins. This traditional view is supported in such fictional works as The Secret Book of Gnomes.
Traditional gnomes are made from a terracotta clay slurry poured into molds. The gnome is removed from the mold, allowed to dry, and then fired in a kiln until it is hard. Once cooled the gnome is painted to the level of detail desired and sent to stores to be sold to consumers. More modern gnomes are made from schwau resins and similar materials.
Garden gnomes were first introduced to the United Kingdom in 1847 by Sir Charles Isham, when he brought 21 terracotta figures back from a trip to Germany and placed them as ornaments in the gardens of his home, Lamport Hall in Northamptonshire. Only one of the original batch of gnomes survives: Lampy, as he is known, is on display at Lamport Hall, and is insured for one million pounds.[5]
A more recent notable manufacturer of Garden Gnomes was Tom Major-Ball, father of former UK Prime Minister John Major. Folklore has it that Tom Major-Ball's favorite personal gnome was named Dennis Kaese as it was one of the shortest gnomes he created.
Garden gnomes have become a popular accessory in many gardens. They are often the target of pranks, known collectively as gnoming: people have been known to return garden gnomes "to the wild", most notably France's "Front de Liberation des Nains de Jardins" and Italy's "MALAG" (Garden Gnome Liberation Front). Some kidnapped garden gnomes have been sent on trips around the world (the travelling gnome prank; this later became the basis for Travelocity's "Roaming Gnome"). In 2008, a 53-year-old French man in Brittany was arrested on suspicion of stealing upwards of 170 garden gnomes.[4]
The practice of stealing garden gnomes is also sometimes referred to as "Gnome Hunting".
Gnomes are often depicted as having beards and are typically males, and usually wear red hats and are known to smoke pipes. They are made in various poses and pursuing various pastimes, such as fishing or napping.[6]
Gnomes have become controversial in serious gardening circles in the UK, and have been banned from the prestigious Chelsea Flower Show as the organisers claim that they detract from the garden designs. Gnome enthusiasts accuse the organisers of snobbery because they are popular in working class and suburban gardens.[7]
It has been suggested by some scholars that the garden gnome is a descendant of the Greco-Roman fertility god Priapus, whose statue was often found in ancient gardens.[8] Welsh rugby union centre Jamie Roberts has the largest collection of gnomes in South Wales.
There is a humorous[citation needed] style of garden gnome which incorporates garden implements, specifically gardening forks and spades. The fork gnome lies on the ground, face down, with the fork sticking out of his back, as though dead and impaled. The spade gnome is available in two forms, one similar to the fork gnome, but lying face up with an expression of anguish with the spade resting in his stomach, again as if impaled and stabbed. The other variant sees the gnome in the pose of someone ring to climb a fence, looking over its shoulder with an expression of agony mixed with fear, as the garden spade in its back. There is a similar variant for the garden fork.

History
Some confusion arises as the gnome is one of many similar but subtly different creatures in European folklore; mythical creatures such as goblins and dwarves are often represented as gnomes, and vice versa. A fairy tale describes little brownielike creatures called "Heinzelmännchen" as nocturnal helpers for mundane tasks dwelling in the city of Cologne, they may have set the paradigm for the garden gnomes with all their gardening tools. In the Book of Lost Tales by JRR Tolkien a race of Elves (the Noldoli) are also referred to as Gnomes.Gnomes feature in the legends of many of central, northern and eastern European lands by other names: a kaukis is a Prussian gnome, and barbegazi are gnome-like creatures with big feet in the traditions of France and Switzerland.

Garden gnomes
The first garden gnomes were made in Gräfenroda,[4] a town known for its ceramics in Thuringia, Germany, in the mid-1800s. Philip Griebel made terracotta animals as decorations, and produced gnomes based on local myths as a way for people to enjoy the stories of the gnomes' willingness to help in the garden at night. The garden gnome quickly spread across Germany and into France and England, and wherever gardening was a serious hobby.
Gnome manufacture spread across Germany with numerous other large and small manufacturers coming into and out of the business, each one having its own particular style of design. World War II was hard on the industry and most producers gave up then. Griebel's descendants still make them and are the last of the German producers, all others having moved production to Poland or China. Currently, there are an estimated 25 million garden gnomes in Germany.[4]Traditional gnomes are made from a terracotta clay slurry poured into molds. The gnome is removed from the mold, allowed to dry, and then fired in a kiln until it is hard.

Mythology of bees honey
| Since time began, honey and bees have been part of the great myths of humanity and have always been extraordinarily potent symbols. The birth of bees: According to the ancient Greeks, all of Nature's phenomena had divine origins. Bees were a source of great fascination, and their mysterious origins inspired the legend of Aristæus: Aristæus, the son of the god Apollo, had a beehive. But he wanted to seduce Eurydice, Orpheus' wife, who died from a snake bite because she had refused Aristæus' advances. In revenge, Orpheus destroyed Aristæus' hive. To appease the wrath of the gods, Aristæus sacrified four bulls and four heifers. From their entrails, new swarms suddenly appeared, so Aristæus was able to rebuild his hive and teach beekeeping to men. . This legend is told by Virgil, the great Latin poet, in his famous ''Georgics''. Like the ancient Greeks, he believed that bees were born spontaneously from animal corpses. In the texts of ancient Egypt, bees were born from the tears of Râ, the Sun God. When the tears fell onto the soil, they were transformed into bees that built honeycombs and produced honey. | |||||
| Bee symbolism: As the workers of the hive, bees are symbol of an industrious and prosperous community governed by the queen bee. They have therefore symbolized all that is royal and imperial , in France and in ancient Egypt (associated with Râ, the Sun God).Three hundred gold bees were discovered in the tomb of Childeric I (on the year 481), which showed that the hive was the model of an absolute menarchy. Napoleon I used bees as a motif on all his carpets, as well as on his coronation robes. | |||||
| As organizers of the universe between earth and sky, bees symbolize all vital principles, and embody the soul . In the Greek religion, the bee was sometimes identified with Demeter, the goddess of the earth and crops, who represented the soul sent to hell. The bee also symbolizes the soul that flies away from the body in the Siberian, Central Asian, and South American Indian traditions. | |||||
| Bees also symbolize eloquence , speech, and intelligence . In Hebrew, the word for bee, Dbure, has its origins in the word Dbr, speech. They settled on the mouth of the child, Plato, " announcing the sweetness of his enchanting soul " (Pliny) and also settled also on the lips of Saint Ambrose, the patron-saint of beekeepers. According to Virgil, they have a grain of divine intelligence and the famous Pythia, the priestess of Apollo, was called "the bee of Delphi". In some texts from India, the bee represents the spirit becoming intoxicated with the pollen of knowledge. Because of its honey and its sting, the bee is considered to be an emblem of Christ : it represents his mildness and mercy on one side and his justice on the other. | |||||
| Honey A basic foodstuff, but which can also be a drink - like milk with which it is often associated -, honey is a symbol of richness and sweetness in all traditions. In the sacred texts of East and West, milk and honey flow like a stream through the promised land. The Celtic traditions celebrate mead as an immortal beverage. In Greek mythology, in which honey is the drink of the gods of Olympus, it is the symbol of knowledge, learning and wisdom , it is a food reserved for the elect, the iniated, and to exceptional people in this world and the next. Greek tradition claims that Pythagoras ate nothing but honey throughout his entire life. | |||||
| All the great prophets refer to honey in the Scriptures. Speech is honey, it represents softness, justice, virtue and divine goodness. The Koran uses holy terms to talk of bees and honey :"Honey is the first blessing that God gave the earth". Virgil calls honey the celestial gift of the dew, dew itself being a symbol of initiation. Honey even designates supreme bliss and the state of Nirvana. Symbol of all sweetness, the honey of knowledge creates the happiness of mankind. | |||||
| The perfection of honey makes it a major element in many religions rituals. For the Egyptians, honey was the tears of the god Râ and was a part of all the religious offerings in pharaonic Egypt. In Islam, according to the Prophet, it restores sight, preserves health and resuscitates the dead. For the American Indians, it plays a great part in ceremonies and the rites of initiation and purification. A source of inspiration, honey gave Pindar the gift of poetry and Pythagoras the gift of science. | |||||
| In modern psychoanalytical thinking, honey symbolizes the "higher self" , the ultimate consequence of work on one's inner self. As the result of the transmutation of ephemeral pollen into a delicious food of immortality, honey symbolizes the transformation by initiation, the conversion of the soul, and the complete integration of the person. | http://www.lunedemiel.tm.fr/anglais/06.htm |

Five Helpful Tips On How To Forgive Others
Forgiveness is seldom easy for anyone. Studies show that bitter feelings can come from not forgiving others and actually cause health problems. At the root of all forgiveness is the need for acceptance. When a person is asking you to pardon them, they are seeking acceptance.
If someone has hurt you deeply, recognize that these wounds do not heal quickly. You will have to be willing to put some distance between you and the person that wronged you if you want to be able to truly forgive. It's normal to feel anger and a whole mix of emotions as you sort through your feelings.
We all make mistakes and need to be forgiven at some point in our life. Acceptance of this fact can help you to be able to pardon others when it is necessary to do so. This tip can really help especially if the offender is not asking for your forgiveness. Just keep reminding yourself of the damage that anger and bitterness can do to your body.
There will be days when you feel like you are suffocating from the pain or anger that you feel. Just put one foot in front of the other and keep on going. If you try to look at the whole picture, it might be too overwhelming. Instead, give yourself time to grieve. You must show acceptance to the fact that you are hurting.
Most people associate forgiveness with forgetfulness, but this is not the case. You can forgive, but you will most likely never be able to truly forget what happened. Some things hurt so deeply, that you will never be able to forget the wrong that was done to you. By showing acceptance to this simple fact, you will be able to move on at a quicker rate.
Don't wait for them to come to you. Once you realize how holding on to something can affect your body in a negative way, it can be easier to let go and forgive. Think of the health problems that can happen if you choose to be stubborn and hold onto what offended you. You can take back your power by acceptance of the fact that you were hurt very deeply and take action to step out and forgive. Forgiveness is a choice, not an emotion.
When you discover that you can make the decision to choose to pardon someone, it can make the process easier for you. Don't think of it as something that you have to do, but something that you are choosing to do.
By showing acceptance to the person that hurt you, you are one step closer to forgiving them. Whether the person asks you for forgiveness or not, you can show acceptance of the situation and understand that it can take a great deal of time to get over this type of pain.
