ElvenWorld Adventures Star Travelers: Mystical Nature

Soul Journeys in the Multiverse - Nature, Metaphysics, Mythology & The Arts

For a number of years now I've been slowing building a collection of jade carvings. Jade collecting takes a surprising amount of knowledge to avoid getting suckered by a bad deal.

The first thing an amateur jade buyer or collector needs to know is that many merchants have a tendency to call any green-looking stone "jade", when it may really just be serpentine, glass or even plastic. Sadly, a number of names for minerals are very misleading because they use the word "jade" but are not, in fact, either jadeite or nephrite.

Multi Dimensional Reality

The world as you know it - all that you see, taste, feel and touch, comprises only about 5% of all of the stuff of the universe. The other 95% is what we have considered "nothing" or the "firmament"  or dark matter or the heavens or mystic Other Worlds. This 95% is multi-dimensional and consists of potential realities that may be perceived.

A single thought...a mere whisper, ...... barely upon a breeze that catches a spark... all is tinder before the firestorm... and yet.
ONLY that whisper
ONLY that thought
 the world is forever changed beyond the fears and dreams of cardboard men.
Freedom and change starts within:
It is encouraged by truth and courage of people who love
Built by the respect of true beings standing as one before each other.
Lets us cross every man made borders
without fear stare into eyes and hearts of all our brothers and sisters: within our words without shouting,or force to hold each to our truths; and let us without fear freely share what works...

Archetypes and Facets of Self

Many of you know that I wrote the Elven World 20 years ago after a near death experience. I was while in heavenly realms, so to speak, asked to write books that carry on the lineage. Celtic and specifically Irish and Welsh culture was not written down and I was tasked with carrying on the spirit and wisdom of the ancestors.Anyway I wrote Elven World beginning almost the moment I go home from the hospital. I never really understood why and over the years I have learned more about the book that I…See More
