Greetings from Okupu at the base of Te Ahumata on Aotea, or Great Barrier Island, New Zealand. Te Ahumata is believed to be the largest outcropping of quartz in the southern hemisphere, and I can't imagine a more awesome place to be during the very powerful conjunction of 'sacred moments in time' coming up over the next few days. I've been back on Great Barrier Island for about 10 days, and this past week was able to make excursions to visit two of the most powerful and beautiful places I know of here, Harataonga (where Liesbet and I camped out beneath a huge 'grandmother pohutakawa' tree for the transit of Venus last year) and Hirakimata (aka Mt. Hobson, an extinct volcanic peak, highest on the island at 621m).
Late July has always been important to me, as it was at this time of year in 1968 when I went outside on a summer's evening and had a sort of 'cosmic contact experience' where I almost felt as if 'someone' or 'something' had come down from the sky and 'touched' me spiritually. The power, mystery and enchantment of this night has stayed with me ever since. From that night on, all I wanted to do was to look at the stars. I went on initially to pursue a career as an astronomer in college until I realized that professional astronomers don't look at the stars much.
Then I received another related 'calling' from the work of Dr. John C. Lilly and his dolphin communication work, quit college, moved to California and got involved with his research group. My love of, devotion to, and advocacy and activism on behalf of cetaceans as well as all things astronomical have evolved and grown immensely during the 45 years since that starry summer night in North Carolina, but that's where it all began.
May the Great Spirit smile down and touch YOU over the next few days: it's a very powerful 'sacred meta-moment of time' involving three major cosmic dimensions, launched by a full moon, and with the Hunab Ku (the centre of our galaxy) at the zenith for austral midnight.

'RAISING THE DJED' on FLINDERS ISLAND, JULY 23 2011
The next few paragraphs are from a journal posting from when we were living on a remote seaside property on the northwest coast of Flinders Island, Tasmania in July of 2011. We had made our eighth medicine wheel and I constructed a Djed pillar. We raised the Djed on July 23 in honour of the Egyptian New Year.
"...The very first thing we did upon arriving was to erect a Djed pillar in honour of the positive dimension of ancient Egyptian cosmology. I know about the Djed from my wonderful friend Moira Timms, author of Beyond Prophecies and Predictions, who told me that the Djed is the most powerful of Egyptian symbols and was actually the focus of their most important ceremony called “raising the Djed” that was conducted at sacred and powerful moments in time. The Djed pillar is a symbolic representation of the back-bone of Osiris, who Moira likens to being 'the Jesus of the Egyptians.' The Djed represents the union of heaven and Earth, the forces of stability and regeneration. The Djed is also associated with the crown chakra. And the 'Djedi' are the 'spiritual body of Osiris', that is, those who are living in their highest consciousness.
I call ours the 'Uncle Djed pillar' because we’re using left-over materials like wooden cable spools, pvc piping, and an old ceramic insulator from a power-pole, plus the fact that where we are looks like where the Klampetts might have come from.
Coincidentally, we just happened to arrive at Balarnia just before the Egyptian new year, which is July 23, the 'heliacal rising of Sirius', which is the brightest star in the sky and the most important celestial being to the Egyptians after the Ra, the sun. July 23 is when Sirius becomes visible again after being in conjunction with the sun for 70 days. In perfect harmony with the cosmos, our 'raising of the Djed' was conducted on the Egyptian new year.
One of the ancient Greek scientists, Aristotle possibly, wrote about how dolphins all seemed to disappear around 'the time of the dog star', what they call 'the dog days' in America, which is in fact 23 July, Sirius being the 'dog star.' I’ve always felt there is some kind of connection between the whales and dolphins and the star Sirius. Also on the Egyptian New Year, Liesbet and I were down at the beach and saw a pod of dolphins for the first time ever here on Flinders Island. Another cosmic synchronicity.
Only a few days later the chem-trails started appearing, so we 'activated the Djed' on behalf of Mother Earth and requested that the chem-trails be banished. The next day these very interesting cloud formations appeared, and when another chem-trail was released, it looked as if these freaky cloud-beings actually moved towards the chem-trail and chased it away, causing it to dissipate and disappear."

* the actual precise 'heliacal' rising of Sirius varies according to latitude, longitude, and epoch; it can be as early as the June equinox and as late as the second week in August. 23 July is the date I have always associated with it.
THE 'DAY OUT OF TIME' 25-26 JULY
NOTE: Jose Arguelles believed that a six month 'window of beyond-time' began on 21 December 2012 and closed on 26 July 2013, at which time we will have achieved 'galactic synchronization'.

GRAND SEXTILE WITH LAST QUARTER MOON 29 JULY 2013
The Aspect Pattern
"The Grand Sextile is one of the most complex aspect patterns as well as rare. Looking at it is akin to a game of cat’s cradle where one pattern after another pops out at you the more you look. To get to the specifics, there are 6 trines, 6 sextiles and 3 oppositions contained within the pattern. Look again and you will see two grand trines, one point up, one point down overlapping each other and forming the ‘star’ pattern. Look again and you’ll see 3 mystic rectangles and 6 kites!
In this July configuration all the planets involved are in receptive, feminine signs
Moon in Taurus
Venus in Virgo
Mars – Jupiter in Cancer
Saturn in Scorpio
Neptune in Pisces
Pluto in Capricorn
Inherently, trines and sextiles are both considered to be flowing, ‘easy’ aspects and some say that whilst the Grand Sextile is beautiful, it is not necessarily very active. Certainly in the warm, feminine, earthy and watery signs there is something soothing about this aspect but to me it seems to contain the essence of what is possible. With Water and Earth being the featured elements, this is a aspect pattern that speaks to us on a very human level. We are moulded and shaped from clay and to the Earth we return."
