If I remember correctly this piece was made in the fall of 2005. I called it Birth of a Star but was a little frustrated because I didn’t know what it was supposed to tell me. I already knew that all of my creations are direct messages from the spirit world but what I did not know was that it sometimes takes years for me to understand them. Now I am more patient because I know that all will be revealed to me as soon as it is time. not sooner nor later.
Back in March of this year I went on a business trip to Hannover, Germany for a week where I stayed just outside the city in a small village. One night after returning home for the night, I stood at my window and looked at the beautiful night sky that was full of stars. The beauty of it made my heart open up and a rush of love towards this beautiful planet went through my entire being.
But what really caught my eye was a very bright, very big and very red star.
There was no mistake about it, it wasn’t reddish or kind of red or had a red hue to it, it was as red as a stop sign or a red light prohibiting people to cross the street. ..fire red.
The logical side of my brain immediately started searching for rational explanations and tried to tell me that I was tired or that it had to be some kind of warning sign on top of a tower or…. and then it gave up. It was just too high up and too clearly visible to have been anything other than a red star I had never seen before or anyone else for that matter. But that was not all to come. After staring at this new visitor in the sky for about 30 minutes, it started moving. First it went straight up and then it started moving in my direction and disappeared from my view above the house I was staying in. My whole body was tingling and I could feel the presence of my ancestor spirits around me and this was what made me “know” there was something going on that would be explained to me later.
Yesterday I got my explanation in form of one of the links I got sent to my email inbox via my google alert for “starseeds”. A blog called In Silent Mind provided me with the prophecy of Blue and Red Star Kachina by the Hopi Elders that were also interviewed by George Noory on Coast to Coast AM.
“The return of the Blue Star Katchina who is also known as Nan ga sohu will be the alarm clock that tells us of the new day and new way of life, a new world that is coming. This is where the changes will begin. They will start as fires that burn within us, and we will burn up with desires and conflict if we do not remember the original teachings, and return to the peaceful way of life…
Not far behind the twins (Blue Star Kachina) will come the Purifier The Red Katchina, who will bring the Day of Purification. On this day the Earth, her creatures and all life as we know it will change forever. There will be messengers that will precede this coming of the Purifier. They will leave messages to those on Earth who remember the old ways…
When the Purifier comes we will see him first as a small Red Star which will come very close and sit in our heavens watching us. Watching us to see how well we have remembered the sacred teachings…”
