Marianna, a fellow school teacher in Brooklyn, came for a reading. We met in 1993 when her 19 year old son, Carl was diagnosed with sarcoma, a tumor behind his pancreas. Carl had leukemia when he was two and a half and the family had hoped he would remain in recovery forever. Carl was sick with the sarcoma for 9 months before he crossed over. Somehow the souls of young people always sense when they will cross over early and the lessons that have brought to their families.

Since Carl crossed over his mother sense when he is around. She has turned to metaphysics as part of her healing process and also goes and grief counseling. She hopes to open a center one day for people to come to relax and heal and be in peace.

Marianna has three other grown children, one son and two daughters. While astral projecting one day, Marianna met Carl, as well as her mother who died shortly after Carl's death. They were on a grassy hillside, telling her that it is not her tome to go to the top of the hill.

Four months after Carl died, Marianna had surgery and almost died. She suffers from Crohn's Disorder. During the surgery she had a Near Death Experience in which she floated above her body and saw the doctors working to save her life. She looked up and saw Carl surrounded by a white light. He was waving his right hand at her, saying, "Go back, Ma. It's not your time. You can't come now." Marianna woke up in the hospital bed.

Marianna says that she is more aware of Carl in her waking state than in dreamtime. She senses him riding with her in the car, in the house, they have conversations, and guiding her. She knows about the smells and touches that come from spirit.

Carl came to see me about an hour before Marianna arrived here and was actively involved in the reading especially as it was in the pyramid.

Marianna sat down in the middle of the pyramid. I told her to face in any direction that felt comfortable. Instinctively she sat facing magnetic north. I sat across from her during the reading which quickly turned into her initiation. Though nothing like this had ever happened to her before, she quickly moved into the energy of the experience.

Placing the three small crystals she wore on her neck, in front of her, Marianna quickly 'went' to another reality for her initiation.

At first I saw a red light (Earth plane) which quickly turned yellow and finally white. I was dizzy and things were spinning then they slowed down. I saw a peaceful place with greenery like a field and a small river with a waterfall. I saw a woman approximately 30 years old, with dark hair tied up. Her name was Arian. She wore a long white dress with gold braiding across the chest and waist. She was mischievous looking. She walked down three marble steps. She took off her garment and went into the water, where she stayed for a few minutes. She came out of the water, and then put her garment back on and walked up the steps. (This is part of many ancient initiations)

There were double windows made of stained glass. They opened after which she walk into a room, that had four marble columns. I went towards the left and walked through a plain glass door into a garden which had flowers of many colors. I sat down amongst the flowers, in the lotus position, with her palms turned up. A beam of white light shown down on her. The light went into her palms, her forehead, and her heart. I absorbed the power of the light. I raised my arms above my head and was bathed in white light. I stayed for a while, then went back through the door into the building with the 4 columns.

I went to a marble altar and lit a candle, then walked to the right. Slightly to my left was a window with white gauze curtains that blew in the wind. To my right was a pedestal. On top of it was a crystal ball, the same size as the top of the pedestal. The ball glowed in an emerald green color. A white light surrounded the crystal ball. I put her hands on either side of the crystal ball, its energies making me stronger and more powerful. With my hands facing upward I sent bolts of white light into my palms. I felt the heat and energy of the light fill and surround me.

Then I noticed my son Carl standing to my right. He was with an angel. Somehow I knew her name was Angelica. Carl placed his hand on my right shoulder. There was a swirling white light in front of me. Carl gave me a ring made of swirling rainbow light. It went onto my left ring finger and kept swirling up and down getting bigger and bigger until it went around my wrist like a bracelet. Then I saw a blinding white light. Slowly I returned to my body, as Carl watched.

Later, when I returned home, I lit three candles and burned sandalwood incense. I closed my eyes and found myself sitting against a rock in a cove of some kind with the ocean in front of me. I saw Arian run towards me, and then sit on me. Her body entered mine. There was a white snow tiger with green eyes sitting beside me to my right. I believe it came as a symbol of power, protection and caution. There were birds singing. A snake was lying beside me, but he was not threatening. I called Ellie, so that she may record this experience as well as the initiation in the pyramid. The energies of the experience remain with me. I can only imagine that once one reaches that height of Initiation, their life is forever altered.

The next day, a white tiger, I frequently see, returned in a meditation. He licked my right cheek and then morphed into my son Carl. He kissed my right cheek then back the white tiger again. The tiger walked ahead and turned to look at me beckoning me to follow him, which I did. We went through a dense forest and then come to a clearing. There was sand and the ocean, you could see to the horizon. The tiger wanted me to follow him to the right. I find prosperity; all my desires come to be. The white house, the metaphysical place. I'm hugging someone who is sad. I think it's a man. I get up and wrote down what had happened in this meditation. I returned to meditate and saw a white light around a rainbow, around the man, and me. He's crying and I'm comforting him. He smiles. I'm standing on the sand again in front of the ocean. The sun is huge and centered right across from me. It shines its bright golden light on me. I'm filled and surrounded by golden light. The vision of the sun covers everything in yellow and emerald green glow light. Arian and I are inside one another as one being inside the center of the sun. I don't understand all of what it means.

Love you,
Marianna/Arian
