THE ASCENSION JOURNALS-
ME, MYSELF, AND MY CRYSTAL



  
   The following series of five editorials focuses on the next dimension and offers a realistic look at just some of the elements helpful for those who want to know more about what it involves. We call the series the ascension journals because it has been the desire from Karra and I to be on the same dimension at some point in our future. While she has spent my whole life doing her best to guide me in the right direction, I have only had an active role in the process since the age of eighteen. Funny enough, it was crystals that started our journey so it is only appropriate that they be the focus of this first journal. Before we begin, there is a question of perception that must be addressed. Paging down through my Facebook news feed will inevitably bring along a post about someone predicting a change of dimensions any day without a clear idea of what that will achieve. To bring some clarity to the discussion, the entire eight years of channeling sessions we have posted online in the Hades Base News is all based on that concept of meeting those who have actually ascended. What it is like on a higher dimension? What is expected of oneself once it is reached? What are the best ways of leaving the third dimension? We will answer the last question first since it’s the easiest of the three. Simply put, there is no best way and it is only through learning enough lessons from living and dying multiple times that ascension takes place in some next life. Now getting there isn’t as hard as people think and staying there isn’t as easy as people think either. That last part, staying there, and the two remaining questions above of how to get there and what it's like are the focus of these journals. Ascending to the next dimension is only half of the goal with a lot more information needed for those ready to change dimensions. Now, onto crystals.

      My foray into the world of natural energies began during a class on the Kabbalah I had taken which we have written about in a previous editorial. The teacher of the class explored various theories about the Kabbalah, one of which was that it was so old it was handed down from Atlantean teachers. From there, she introduced us to the great crystals of Atlantis and the various roles they played in the continent’s mysterious history. Especially fascinating to me were the tales of the healing crystals that could perform miracles in treating the ailments of the people when needed. That was enough to spark my interest and I began to read up on what the crystals of today could still do, if only on a smaller scale. Efforts to attain crystals of my own were not as easy in the seventies since rock and gem stores were not yet a thing except in personal collections and Amazon was just the name of a river in Brazil. That is what led me into taking a trip out to Santa Monica where a lady there had a number of crystals that she advertised for sale. Indeed she did and I was amazed at the variety and amount of rocks and crystals she had scattered about the main room as you entered. She could tell my interest was great so she devoted several hours to giving me a lesson in what was obviously a topic she could spend several days discussing. We went over record keepers, phantom quartz, healing crystals, energy crystals as well as some other types lying around like amethyst and rose quartz. For me, this was all I had been reading about and it was clear this was important information I felt a pull to learn. I bought a couple of energy crystals and an amethyst cluster to get started though she wasn’t quite done with me. She had a rule when selling crystals to make sure they went to a good home and would be cared for after they arrived. She taught her customers how to clean and energize their crystals which is what she did with me plus adding a free lesson in crystal awareness so that I could bond with my crystals. It has been a lesson that I continue to exercise whenever the spirit (or Karra) moves me to keep up the skill.

      She explained about natural energies, the aura, and how crystals were built around a six-sided quartz matrix which was how they were able to store the various forms of energy. She then ran her hand just above my arm and said it was so she could demonstrate being able to feel the energy of a person’s aura. She next instructed me to do the same over her arm and she was right, I could feel an invisible force inches above her arm. Next, she laid out a crystal she said she had charged while explaining that energy could be felt from the crystal if one tuned out all distractions except the crystal. To demonstrate, she had me close my eyes while she changed the position of the crystal. Keeping my eyes closed, I swept my hand over the space above the crystal and could feel heat in one spot I passed over with a coldness on both sides. Sure enough, the crystal was directly below my hand. She did it again with a different crystal and I found that the reverse was true, there was a chill as my hand passed over that particular spot. That trip to Santa Monica sparked a love affair with crystals that has stayed strong throughout the decades. I still practice the technique she showed me to maintain that sensitivity and to those still yet to learn about the family of crystals and their energies I would suggest trying your own experiment. Find any quartz crystal laying around, charged or uncharged, and set it in front of you. Putting your hand over your crystal, close your eyes and see if you feel an energy an inch or two from where it sits. Still can’t feel the energy? Run your hand a few inches above your arm to become familiar with the natural energy of your aura. Now return to the crystal and try again to feel its energy. Once you do, continue to leave your eyes closed and move your hand to find the crystal again just from that energy it radiates.

   The last section of this and the next four editorials is to explain higher dimensional life experienced by those on the base and Sirius to how it relates to the subject at hand. For this first look, we will focus on life on Hades Base, a place far from Sirius. That is the homeworld for most of those who have volunteered to help in the ascension of those of us on Earth looking beyond the third dimension. As if in anticipation of this editorial, my life partner and bond-mate Karra, gives an excellent description of home life on the base in the latest channeling session for August. Learning about dust, stains, and dirt being sucked out of the furniture to be recycled would be something out of our science fiction but for them, it is just how things get clean. Some choose not to take advantage of the technology in favor of cleaning their apartments by themselves while others choose the automation. In all things, the responsibility is on those making the choice on which option to use. Such systems would not be out of reach on this planet, nor would the ability to solve many of mankind’s problems if there was a unified goal. In a previous channeling session, Karra related one way in which crystals are used in the healing techniques on the base. When they have a broken arm or leg, they will incorporate crystals into the cast to speed up the healing. The original colonists in Atlantis were from Sirius and again we come back to where we started. Many people incarnating now on this planet possibly spent one life or more at some point breathing its air.  So it may be that the memory of crystals is calling to us through the ages, wishing to share again in the exchange of energies that would only be to the benefit of all. So many kinds of energy, so many kinds of crystals. When sharing energies with a crystal, you begin to know and understand it better. Conversely, the more a crystal shares with you, it begins to get to know and understand you better so that a friendship is born.

In love, light, and crystal wisdom,

Russ and Karra
