Chakra is a concept referring to wheel-like vortices which, according to traditional Indian medicine, are believed to exist in the surface of the etheric double of man. The Chakras are said to be "force centers" or whorls of energy permeating, from a point on the physical body, the layers of the subtle bodies in an ever-increasing fan-shaped formation (the fans make the shape of a love heart). Rotating vortices of subtle matter, they are considered the focal points for the reception and transmission of energies. Seven major chakras or energy centers (also understood as wheels of light) are generally believed to exist, located within the subtle body. Practitioners of Hinduism and New Age Spirituality believe the chakras interact with the body's ductless endocrine glands and lymphatic system by feeding in good bio-energies and disposing of unwanted bio-energies.

Much of the original information on Chakras comes from the "Upanishads", which are difficult to date because they are believed to have been passed down orally for approximately a thousand years before being written down for the first time between 1200–900 BCE.

Derbyshire - Eyam Parish Church C8th Celtic Cross by Kimhaz - Here and There

The church of St Lawrence, Eyam is medieval with elements from the 13th and 15th centuries.

In the churchyard stands a striking Saxon cross in Mercian style, about 8 feet high. It was originally as much as 10 feet tall, but has lost a section of the cross shaft.

The cross dates to the late 8th or early 9th century and originally stood at Cross Low, west of Eyam, where it probably served as a wayside preaching cross. It was discovered beside an ancient trackway during the 18th century, dug up, and erected in the churchyard at Eyam. It is only Saxon cross in the Midlands that retains its cross-head.

The cross is beautifully carved with intricate interlace patterns on the shaft, with scrollwork and foliage, and figures depicting Christ, the Virgin Mary, and angels are carved on panels on the shaft and cross-head. It truly is a remarkable piece of pre-Norman art, and deserves a visit in its own right.

Eyam is a small village in Derbyshire.

Lying between Buxton and Chesterfield it is just north of Bakewell in the Peak District. Typically rural, most of its population were farmers. In the early 1660s it did not stand apart from any of the other numerous villages that lined the trade routes from London to the rest of England. And yet in 1665 Eyam became one of the most significant villages in England. The actions of its 800 inhabitants had far reaching and important consequences for the development of treatment of the plague.

1665-6 was the last major epidemic of the plague to occur in England. As was normal the plague concentrated in London. The movement of the rich alongside the normal trade patterns of England meant that the great plague spread quickly across the country. Rural areas that may previously have been safe from the diseases of urban areas were also exposed. The plague arrived in Eyam in late August 1665. It came in a parcel of cloth sent from London to the village tailor Alexander Hadfield. When Hadfield’s assistant George Viccars spread the cloth out by the fire to air, he found it was infested with rat fleas. He died a few days later with his burial being recorded in the parish registers on 7th September 1665.

Spread by infected fleas from small animals, the bacteria enters the skin through a flea bite and travels via the lymphatic system to a lymph node causing it to swell. This causes the characteristic buboes which typically appeared under the arm but could surface in the neck or groin area also. Combined with the black bruising under the surface of the skin, fever, vomiting and spasms, the plague was a truly terrifying disease that spread with a startling ferocity.

People of the 17th Century believed in numerous theories regarding the origins of the plague. Most believed that it was a punishment sent by God for the sins of the world. People sought forgiveness through prayer and by repenting for their sins. Eyam, a small village in the north, acted in a unique way. Their intention was to act decisively and prevent the spread of disease.

The Church’s dominance in the 17th Century was still supreme, even after the religious roller-coaster of the Tudor period. The local Reverends were pillars of the community, often the most educated people in the village. Eyam had two Reverends. Thomas Stanley had been dismissed from his official post for refusing to take the Oath of Conformity and use the Common Book of Prayer. His replacement, Reverend William Mompesson had worked in the village for a year. Aged 28, Mompesson lived in the rectory with his wife Catherine and their two small children. Both highly educated, it was the actions of Stanley and Mompesson that resulted in the outbreak of plague in Eyam being contained to the village and not spreading to the nearby city of Sheffield.

Silicone - Pleural effusion - Cytology specimen by Dr. Yale Rosen Atlas of Pulmonary Pathology

Bilateral ruptured breast implants indicated by short arrows

The sample is a pleural effusion cytology specimen. The effusion contains silicone, both extracellular and within macrophages.

The few reported cases relate it with abrupt mechanical trauma or chest wall defects that put the implant and pleura in direct contact. A few cases (such as this one) may be related to lymphatic transport.

Lab 11 Lymphatic System by alyssaeunice@sbcglobal.net

Healing Arts technique by Dana Los Angeles, California by Art Donna

The MLD process involves a light vibratory touch to encourage the lymphatic fluid flow toward the main lymphatic ducts and back into the blood system.

When the flow of lymphatic elements is reduced, the immune system weakens. Lymphatic drainage can help improve the production and flow of antibodies, thus better empowering the immune system and assisting in detoxification and relaxation.

Crescent houses to get Earth's energy meridian and vortex system Earth's energy meridian system. Gigantic Crystal? conjunction with astronomical..receiving station for stellar energies, at least in certain seasons…. sacred centers by Hughes Songe

Earth’s forces grid is made up of energies veins that distribute life throughout this crescent . It's sort of the earth's circulatory system, its network of blood vessels. It is through the energy grid that the health of the Earth is maintained.

The veins of the Earth circulate both in its depth and on its surface and excite the atmosphere, which is an integral part of the organic body of the Earth. There are main channels, which diffract in finer and denser gratings, fine grids within wide grids.

If you’re substituted the image of the veins awesome vital network of the body of the Earth is the equivalent of the nadis of the human body, and continues to keep this concept in a building, a housing environment, why not? It could be cool? Like Heaven Palast or Versailles or something for high levels….. not specifically for normal human like me 🤔

Versailles Garden is made up of subtle themes of little gardening themselves traversed by meridians and innumerable channels, the nadis (see Chakras and subtle gardens bodies). It is through these nadis that subtle energy circulates in the body’s way of the design.

The important crossroads of the nadis of the human body are energy distribution centers, the chakras. The chakras are conical or spherical volumes which cross the subtle bodies and connect the different vibratory levels of the body. Energy from the universe enters through the chakras. The body is not an isolated object adrift on Earth. It is connected to the cosmos by multiple circuits.

It is the same for the body of the Earth which is structured by its vital circuits and by crossroads of energetic flows. On some crossroads there are vortices. As we have seen (Planetary Grid), the grid is not only perceptible at the physical magnetic level, it exists on several levels dimensional. The vortices vertically cross several vibratory levels. Through its grids and vortices, the Earth is connected to the cosmos and receives impulses from the universe.

To live fully, the human being depends entirely on the good health of the terrestrial circuits. This is why in this project, a Geobiologist is assigned to the monitoring, operation and adjustment of the grids and this former industrial wasteland. The geobiologist is an engineer, guardian of sacred geometry, healers, hierophant priestess. This science is different from ours, much more subtle, deeper and more generous. She is in harmony with life, she works in harmony with it.

Regulation of flow by terrestrial acupuncture

Just as acupuncture puts the energies of our bodily meridians in order, so there is acupuncture to act on the meridians of the Earth. Earth flows are sometimes naturally chaotic, and earthly acupuncture allows them to be modified and directed. Fundamentally electrical in nature, the earth's fluxes are modulated like the electric currents in this project of housing residence.

It is the sacred constructions that serve as a needle. Menhirs strongly resemble stone needles, and this strongly suggests this function. They did fill it, at least some (Needles of Stone, Tom Grave), but not only them. We suggest to design penthouse-menhirs for location to improve the veins of the Earth.

Without necessarily being needle-shaped, other sacred centers, built according to precise geometric plans, are elaborate devices for regulating and connecting current. The set of sacred centers, temples, megaliths, simple earthworks, and ley lines, is therefore analogous to a vast printed circuit with its capacitors, transformers, transmitters and receivers.

When one detects magnetic fluxes which intersect in a sacred center of this purpose of crescent , one is tempted to deduce that the crossing existed before the construction and that it was implanted on it.

This is true, but not always. In some cases it is

the implantation of the housing itself which diverted the flow and attracted it to it according to a mastered science.

In England, John Foster Forbes was one of the first to note the links between particular engravings on the stones of a site and the constellations, or between the plan and orientation of the site and the constellations. By dowsing measurements, he realized that each of the sites vibrated according to energies related to the constellation on which it was planned. He claimed that the stone circles were built in conjunction with astronomical data to serve as a receiving station for stellar energies, at least in certain seasons.

If the sacred centers are (or were) devices of emission - reception of waves,

we can better understand that they were oriented or planned in relation to the sky and the stars. It is not to venerate the gods of these constellations but so that the place resonates with the corresponding cosmic energies. It receives cosmic energy and redistributes it to terrestrial flows, thus participating in the raising of the vibratory level and in the balancing, not only of the place itself, but of the whole circuit.

Places of healing and raising of consciousness

Another use of the grid energy was to create places for healing bodies and souls. People who are sensitive to the energy of menhirs and dolmens sometimes find that a certain stone acts in them in a certain part of the body, a certain chakra, while another stone acts on another chakra. This phenomenon is a rudimentary manifestation of a much more elaborate science using sacred geometry. In the temples (Egyptians in particular), rooms were arranged for specific healing purposes. The old centers were replaced by other cults which recovered the vibratory potentials of the places. With or without the complicity of the Christian Church, certain brotherhoods or certain orders have secretly transmitted their knowledge which has become "occult". In Europe, they knew how to use sacred geometry until the Middle Ages to build their buildings (cathedrals, abbeys, chapels, sanctuaries, calvaries). According to Georges Prat, at certain sites of ancient sacred sites or Christian sites which replaced them (England, France, etc.), the crossing of 2 or 3 metal flows is detected. In the chamber, the metallic vibrations act as the corresponding trace elements. Some places are highly beneficial due to their exceptional location where rare flows intersect. Other rooms or places are programmed to create spiritual connections with the higher planes. Their vibratory level promotes the elevation of consciousness. Each receives according to what he is, according to his faculty of reception. Staying in these places can provoke spiritual experiences, lead to

other levels of consciousness and convey information in the form of sensations, thoughts or visions. These sites also allow three-dimensional communication with the invisible for wizards and mages of all kinds, depending on the spiritual nature of the initiate and the power that is sought. Ivan Sanderson (1911 - 1973) was a biologist in the United States, but in addition he was interested in the study of strange phenomena, such as the abominable snowman and created the Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained. He also made a contribution to the study of the planetary grid in an article published in 1972 in Saga magazine: The 12 vines of the devil around the world.

He reports there the results of his investigations on the zones of terrestrial anomalies: magnetic anomalies, energetic aberrations, time distortions, disappearances of ships and planes and other strange phenomena. To collect the data and perform statistical analysis, it takes advantage of modern electronic data collection methods. It highlights 12 anomaly zones. The most astonishing is that they are equidistant and regularly arranged around the globe. Two of them are the poles and the other 10 zones are distributed on either side of the equator. The area that ranks first in these statistics is the area known as the Bermuda Triangle, east of Miami (Bahamas). It has an evil reputation because of the disappearance of planes and boats and the weather disturbances. Magnetism takes on an exceptional character: magnetic north is identical to geographic north; there are many failures of compasses, radios and control panels. This is point 18 of the Becker-Hagens grid (26 ° 36 'N 76 ° 48' W), which we will get to know later.

The Devil's Sea, in the east of Japan (point 14 of the B-H grid, 26 ° 34 'N 139 ° 12' E), located between the islands of Iwo Jima and Marcus, constitutes a second remarkable zone.

distortions, where planes and ships have gone missing. Grim events regularly take place there to the point that the Japanese government has officially classified it as a dangerous area.

Another is located near Hawaii (point 16 of grid B-H, 26 ° 34 'N 148 ° 48' W), an area of intense volcanic activity. Sanderson reports the story of a pilot whose guidance and communication instruments no longer worked in this area, and resumed working once out of the area, a failure over an area of 560 km, so for at least one half an hour maybe an hour. But the control tower recorded no interruptions, as if the crossing had lasted a second. It is a zone of time warping. Sanderson's results were taken up and developed by a group of three Russian scientists: Nikolai Goncharov is a historian, Valery Makarov is an electronics specialist, Vyacheslav Morozov is a building engineer. They add new points on the grid which take into account electromagnetic and thermal activities: magnetic and gravitational anomalies, zones of seismic fractures, ridges of underwater relief, zones of extreme climate, flights of migratory birds, sites of ancient cities. They thus arrive at a total of 62 points which include the 12 places already identified by Sanderson. In 1973, they set out their conclusions in an article entitled Is the Earth a Gigantic Crystal? published in the Soviet Science Journal Khimiya i Zhizn (Chemistry and Life). The American journalist and writer Christopher Bird made them known in a New Age Journal article published in May 1975, entitled Planetary Grid. They present a geometric network drawn on a world map. This regular network shows that a geometric structure is associated with the terrestrial sphere, either that it is superimposed on it, or that it underlies it. It is the visible imprint of an energy matrix implanted in the earth. The polyhedra that underlie the terrestrial sphere Goncharov, Makarov and Morozov noticed that the places highlighted are placed at the tops of two polyhedra which make the earth a vast crystal. Triangles are the faces of a unicosahedron and pentagons are the faces of a dodecahedron. A regular dodecahedron has 12 faces in the form of regular pentagons (dodecah = 12), 20 vertices and 30 edges. A regular icosahedron is an assembly of 20 equilateral triangles (icosa = 20) and has 12 vertices and 30 edges.

Plato's 5 regular polyhedra

The icosahedron and the dodecahedron are two of Plato's five volumes (or solids). Plato had explicitly referred to these polyhedra as symbols of the elements that make up the human body and the earth. This concept is probably very old. Kepler also attempted to put it back in honor by applying it to the solar system. Currently, they are rather known in geometry as being the only regular convex polyhedra. We say that a polyhedron is regular when its faces are regular and equal and its angles equal. Convex means that they have no hollow, unlike a star polyhedron. These polyhedra are writable in a sphere.@The other 3 Platonic solids are the octahedron and the tetrahedron, which like the icosahedron are made of triangles, and the cube, made of squares. However, we also find these three Platonic solids as an integral part of the earth grid. The cube exists in the dodecahedron itself, if we highlight some of its vertices. As David Wilcock notes, Cathie's grid reveals this cube of obvious way. Over time, the cube of the terrestrial grid could have been preexisting and then included by the dodecahedron, or the reverse, it stood out from the dodecahedron.@In Cathie's grid, we also detect the octahedron, made of 8 equilateral triangles. There remains the tetrahedron, a polyhedron with 4 triangular faces, which can also be described as a pyramid with 3 sides. Is it visible on earth?

The Earth being provided with an axis of rotation, the axis of the tetrahedron will coincide with the axis of rotation. One of the vertices of the tetrahedron is therefore on one of the poles, north or south. It follows that the base triangle will have its three vertices in the plane of a parallel, equidistant from 360/3 = 120 ° . What latitude is this parallel? If we take as a measure the side of the tetrahedron the value 1, its height, the segment which joins the vertex to the base will be 0.8165 (√6 / 3), which places the base at the latitude of 19.47 ° in the decimal system of degrees, or 19 ° 28 'in the system of degrees, minutes and seconds (sexagesimal). As the 2 poles are geometrically equivalent, we can expect to find 2 tetrahedra, one pointing upwards, the other downwards. It is a double tetrahedron, a figure brought to light by Johannes Kepler in 1609 which he named Stella Octangula, translated as a starry octangle. It is sometimes called the star tetrahedron. Its two-dimensional correspondence (on a surface) is the Star of David. Before Kepler, it was described in the Divine Proportion by Luca Pacioli, in 1509. Where are these peaks located at latitude 19 ° 47 '? The south parallel crosses the oceans, while the north parallel crosses several continents, and it is on this last that we meet 3 remarkable places.

Hawaii's volcanoes

The Big Island of Hawaii overlaps precisely this latitude, already encountered with Sanderson (point 16 of grid B-H). Its volcanoes are among the most active on earth, such as Mauna Kea located at latitude 19 ° 30 'North and longitude 155 ° West. Richard Hoagland, a former aerospace advisor for NASA, analyzed this terrestrial tetrahedron and designated Hawaii as the summit. He had started by detecting tetrahedra on other planets, Mars, Jupiter, Venus in the 1990s and had led an independent research team on lunar missions with NASA, the Pentagon and the former Soviet Union, benefiting from the data newly accessible following the lifting of defense secrecy.

The strip located on Giza

At 120 ° from Hawaii, at longitude 31 ° East, there is a whole vertical strip that runs along the Nile. According to Carl Munck (in his book The Code, 1997), all the pyramids of Egypt are located within a north-south longitudinal strip with a width of 1 °. The Nile is also contained within this strip. The great pyramid is located at latitude 30 ° North. Latitude 19 ° is lower in Sudan. According to Carl Munck, the geodesic coordinates of ancient monuments are inscribed in coded form in the monument itself. The code is quite complex and its rules seem to be the resurgence of an ancient science, gematria, the most elaborate forms of which have been lost and which remain to be rediscovered. According to this decoding, the longitudes are fixed with respect to a zero meridian which was not that of Greenwich as today, but a meridian which crosses the great pyramid of Giza. Old longitudes are deduced from current longitudes by subtracting 31 °. The great pyramid was considered the central point of the earth. Geographically, if we draw large circles passing through it, and oriented in any direction, they cross more land than can be done in no other place. It is the center of gravity of the land surface. Energetically, the place concentrates large flows of terrestrial energy. According to W. Becker (see his presentation below), the great pyramid is built on a very powerful energy point where the lines of the tetrahedron, cube, octahedron, dodecahedron and icosahedron intersect.

Energy flow grids

Apart from the statistical exploitation of geophysical data on a global scale, other discoveries were made by means of dowsing and feeling in the field in the previous article.

In the French community, the practice of energy measurements in the field by dowsing has spread widely since the 1930s with the highlighting of flows linked to megalithic sites and churches, then in the years 1950 by the dissemination of geobiology and the identification of networks, the best known of which remains the Hartmann network. Strangely enough, the reference to geobiology is generally associated with the harmfulness of certain places in a house or in a land where it is not good to stay frequently. It is a rather negative approach to vital flows which is perhaps due to the origins of its discovery by doctors.@In June 1940, a Parisian doctor, Dr Peyré, made a communication to the Academy of Sciences on his discovery of a network of North - South and East - West radiation coming from the ground. It is therefore not a question here of isolated points, nor of isolated lines intersecting each other, but of a geometric grid whose energy can be identified along the lines. Its characteristics are as follows: stitches whose side in both directions measures approx. 8 sts. George Prat, whom we will find later, identified that this network carried the radiation of copper. In a book titled Die Welt Der Geheimen Machte (1952), Siegfried Wittman states the existence of another N-S / E-W network of 16m x 16m side. He specifies that this dimension is only approximate since the N-S lines are meridians which merge at the pole and diverge towards the equator where the side of the square is 32 m. Around 1950, Dr. Manfred Curry, a German physician who worked with Wittman, discovered another telluric vibratory network (from the earth). This is oriented at 45 ° with respect to the North, therefore diagonally with respect to the Hartmann network. It is called the Curry network or diagonal net. Its average characteristics are as follows: square mesh of 3 to 16 meters with an average of 4 to 5 m in both orientations; strip thickness of about 40 centimeters. It carries the radiation of iron. It covers the whole earth. To give a realistic image, it should be noted that these values vary from one place to another. The meshes and the bands can be deformed locally. It should also be added that although it is measured on the ground, it also extends vertically like a set of thick curtains that rise from the nickel. Around 1950, another German doctor, Dr Ernst Hartmann (1925-1992) discovered almost at the same time a North-South and East-West vibratory network. Compared to the previous one, this network is tighter and its mesh is rectangular. It is called H or Hartmann network or global network. It covers the whole earth. Its mesh size is approximately 2 m (N-S) x 2 m 50 (E-O). It carries the radiation of nickel. The bands emanate from the depths of the earth and rise vertically with thicknesses of 21 cm on average. For all networks, the east-west dimension of the mesh narrows when one approaches the poles of the earth's axis (for mathematicians, proportional to the cosine of the latitude). On the other hand, the North-South distance between the parallels remains constant (see studies on this subject). Originally, the discovery of these networks is largely due to the observation that certain places are pathogenic. Certain line crossings of the network emit unfavorable energies. Normally neutral, the cross becomes pathogenic

when it carries anomalies due to the subsoil, such as certain electrical currents induced by groundwater or underground waterways, geological faults or unbalanced mineral deposits. Dr Curry and Dr Peyré have observed that harmful points of this type favor the appearance of cancer.

Metal nets by Georges Prat

We have already met Georges Prat, French architect and geobiologist. By doing his expertise in the field, he finds the networks previously named. But he discovers many others that vibrate differently. Seeking to understand their nature, he enlists the collaboration of an Austrian researcher who measures the radiation of the network by means of a scientific laboratory apparatus, and he identifies the radiation of these networks with metals (we unfortunately do not know with what apparatus the now deceased researcher proceeded, nor what type of measurement he carried out. However, the results can be verified retrospectively by dowsing). This is how Pratt identifies the Hartmann network with nickel, the Curry network with iron and the Peyré network with copper. According to him, the radiations coming from the center of the Earth do not come to us uniformly but in the form of networks of energy, like the meshes of a net ... Each metal has its own mesh whose dimensions depend on its quantitative importance. inside our own planet. Thus nickel, a widespread and abundant metal in the central core of the Earth, has a net of 2 meters by 2.5 m in European latitudes, while gold, the rarest metal, is not found under the same conditions as every 400 km (555 km at the equator). (G. Prat, Cartesian Precise of Geobiology)

sc7467ceb46111604.jimcontent.com/download/version/1416597...

Each mesh is unique in terms of the size and orientation of the mesh. For example, the network of nickel (Hartmann) is rectangular and the tightest of the networks. The meshes are delimited by vertical walls or curtains which rise in height and also have a determined thickness. Prat also highlighted the networks of cobalt, manganese, platinum, uranium, selenium, palladium, lithium, magnesium, antimony, titanium, siderite ... These flows are rarer. They are sometimes found in certain Neolithic temples where the crossing of several of them acts as a place of healing by trace elements.@Another remarkable feature of all metal mesh is that

the thickness of the vertical wall is doubled every 9 meshes. We can therefore consider that a network is "structured" by another network of the same nature, larger and more powerful.

The networks of platinum, silver and gold have very wide meshes, so that few of them are found on earth. Thus the platinum network has only 38 meridians cut by 36 parallels. Double networks are even rarer. That of gold includes only 3 circles from north to south, one of which is the equator and the other 2 parallels of either side of the equator. In the East-West direction, there are 4 large circles (ie 8 meridians). In total, they determine 26 crossing points. Gold and silver network in Europe and North Africa Thanks to G. Prat (© Précis Cartesien de géobiologie)

The silver network is coupled with that of gold. Although they are oriented differently, their crossing points are superimposed. It is the same with the networks of double silver and double gold. Thus, the 26 crossing points of double gold are also those of double silver.. This makes these points remarkable sites. Most of these crosses are located in inaccessible places or in the ocean. Only two are accessible and marked as high places: Chartres Cathedral in France and Potala Palace in Tibet. The crossing points of simple gold are also of great interest. It is on these points that the oldest temples are installed, often subsequently replaced by other temples and then by churches or cathedrals. The flow of lines of the eastern network connect famous centers: Moscow, Istanbul and Giza; Chartres, Toulouse and Ghardaia. Ghardaïa, in Algeria, considered as a tourist site of major importance because of its architecture and its history, is part of the world heritage. The synthesis of this information from various sources puts us in front of several energy flow systems of the earth. On the one hand, the location of geomagnetic anomalies led to the identification of the 120 polyhedron with its 62

points and its triangles. The lines are represented at first glance as geometric traces between the vertices, not as energy flows, although they probably are, as the existence of leys lines suggests to us almost everywhere on earth. On the other hand, the experimental measurements in dowsing reveal bundles of lines and grids of energy flows which cover the whole planet.

From these findings, questions may come to mind. The double gold lattice closely resembles the Sanderson grid and the Becker-Hagens grid but is different. Is there a relationship between them and which one? Why do some points on the Becker-Hagens geometric grid seem to be offset from a nearby sacred place? I will try to give answers to these questions insofar as it can open our minds to the reality of these grids. However, I will not try to answer with precise technical data which would require lengthy and unnecessary investigations. The aim of this article is to raise awareness of the existence and operation of the grid, even if we do not fully know how it is constituted. Kind of like you can benefit from a computer without knowing exactly its internal structure. I stay focused on my goal of understanding who we are and how we relate to the universe. Here are a few more concepts that take into account the complexity of grids. There is not a single grid, but several that are superimposed and connected; they do not follow a strict geometry like a computer drawing; they are alive, moving and adaptable. Our discovery of metal networks illustrates the fact that several networks, several grids coexist and interpenetrate. Each carries a different energy and therefore has a specific function. There are great grids which are the main life conduits of the earth. These large meshes are divided into smaller meshes, themselves subdivided into even smaller meshes creating a finer mesh. There are grids within grids, according to a hierarchy of scale that can be described as fractal. We can compare this interweaving of networks to the vital networks of the human body. The blood system is strongly coupled to the respiratory network, the lymphatic system and the nervous system, for example. It is itself made up of large main vessels, which branch out into finer vessels, and even up to the extremely fine capillary vessels.

In addition, the human body is made of the superposition of at least 5 energy bodies of different vibratory levels: physical, vital, emotional, mental and spiritual body (see article Chakras and subtle bodies). It is the same for the Earth. She has her own energy bodies. So the comparison between the human body and the body of the Earth is not just a convenient picture. It is a reality: the human body and the terrestrial body are constituted according to similar structures. Each body on Earth has its own circulatory system: it is a grid. The multidimensional superposition of grids has for example been described by Richard Leviton (Leys lines and the meaning of Adam). According to his vision, a certain form of energy structure was put in place in the early days of Earth's existence, in relation to the appearance of biological life. The original structure was made of straight lines connecting energy vortices in the form of domes posed on the surface of the earth. These lines were double, one carrying the vibration of gold and the other that of silver. These lines went up too vertically in a way to meet at a particular point on Earth, its navel in a way. That navel could be Avebury in England. It is interesting to note that other places on the planet have been named navel, such as the umphalos of Delphi in Greece or Cuzco in Peru. Levinton distinguishes 4 grids of different vibratory levels, corresponding to the energetic bodies of the Earth, located on the surface or in the atmosphere, up to approximately 3 km of altitude. One of them is made of 15 large circles surrounding the

earth above its surface, determining 62 crossing points and 120 triangles. The St. Michael's ley line in England is one of them. It is not limited to England, it goes around the world. Another grid, often parallel to the previous one, includes a multitude of secondary domes, in total 1746 domes which have become potential places of menhirs, megalithic centers or temples. Each dome carried the codes of light necessary to create life. Thus, the vital flows of the earth are distributed according to a system of multidimensional geometric grids whose structure is based on a combination of polyhedra inscribed in the terrestrial sphere, the Platonic solids and their fractal derivatives. However, these geometries are not immutable. The grids are alive and like any living being, they breathe and evolve. Their evolution is linked to

the evolution of the earth and of humanity. According to Levinton, every major change in the evolution of biological and human life has been accompanied by a change in the structure of the grids, for example at the time of the appearance of man on Earth. According to other authors, important modifications of the grids marked the beginning of the human experience of duality, that is to say the cut of man with his inner divine being and with the celestial hierarchies. But here we are again faced with strong modifications of the grids which have disturbing repercussions on our bodies and our minds, as well as on geology.

A New Day.... by Kira Westland

Lymp Node Transplants....

Breast cancer often spreads to the lymph nodes, so patients who have breast cancer surgery often also have a lymph node under their arm removed and examined. If cancer is found, more lymph nodes may need to be removed.

An unfortunate but common long-term side effect of this process is lymphedema, or swelling in the arm. It’s caused by fluid buildup in the arm tissue that occurs when the lymphatic system is damaged.

A new procedure done by a plastic surgeon can transfer lymph nodes from a healthy part of the body into the swollen arm helps the fluid drain appropriately.

Manual Lymphatics Drainage (MLD) is a form of soft-tissue mobilization. Our body’s immune system is highly dependent on the lymphatic system function.

The lymphatic system is located close to the surface of the skin and is composed of a fluid containing infection-fighting white blood cells, and vessels (ducts and nodes) that transport the fluid.

The MLD process involves a light vibratory touch to encourage the lymphatic fluid flow toward the main lymphatic ducts and back into the blood system.

MLD can effectively decrease post - surgical and traumatic edema (swelling). In addition it relieves symptoms of fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, fatigue, migraine headaches, stress and more.

Spring cleanse by L. Z.

Freshly pressed: horsetail, stinging nettles, cleavers and wheatgrass for our spring cleanse!

The younger daughter, the bravest of all of us, drank it without making a face. Mom was the second bravest... the rest of us followed...

Horsetail (Equisetum arvense) is one of the most diuretic plants. It is also effective in removing lead accumulations in the body. It contains silica. Silica helps to fix calcium, so that the body can store more of it and then use it to repair bones, collagen and other body tissues. It is also recommended for anemia and to treat deep-seated lung damage, inflammation or benign enlargement of the prostate gland and the removal of kidney stones. Its toning and astringent action make it of value in the treatment of incontinence and bed-wetting in children.

Stinging nettles (Urtica dioica) are the best blood purifier available and have an influence over the pancreas. Stinging nettles also assist in lowering blood sugar, treat anemia, arthritis and rheumatism, respiratory and urinary problems, eczema, asthma, sinusitis and rhinitis, enlarged prostate, protect against hair loss, kidney stones, allergies, hay fever, osteoarthritis, internal bleeding, uterine bleeding, nosebleeds and bowel bleeding, protect against enlarged spleen, diabetes, endocrine disorders, stomach acid, diarrhea, dysentery, lung congestion, cancer, wound healing.

Cleavers (Galium aparine) promotes lymphatic flow and lymphatic drainage of toxins and wastes so that they can be excreted via the urinary system. It is also excellent for skin problems, including eczema, psoriasis, acne, boils, abscesses, urinary infections. urinary stones and gravel, arthritis and gout. It has anti-tumor activity, particularly when in the skin or breasts, and the lymphatic system.

Wheatgrass is used for removing deposits of heavy metals, and cancer-causing agents from the body and for removing toxins from the liver and blood. It is also used for increasing production of hemoglobin, improving blood sugar disorders, preventing tooth decay; improving wound healing; and preventing bacterial infections. Wheatgrass helps in treatment of urinary tract and prostate, gout; liver; ulcerative colitis; joint pain; and chronic skin problems, cancer and arthritis.

The lymphatic system is part of the immune system where cleansing of blood, and the detoxification of our bodies takes place. A huge network of lymphatic vessels recycles blood plasma by removing fluid from the tissues, filtering it, and carrying it back into the bloodstream.

These are foods to add into your diet to boost the lymphatic system:

* Garlic

Garlic boosts immune function and combats harmful microbes. It improves circulation and aids in the cleansing of toxins. It boosts the function of your lymphatic system and contains antibacterial qualities.

* Citrus

Citrus fruits aid hydration, carry powerful antioxidants and enzymes, and help cleanse and protect the lymphatic system.

Manual Lymphatics Drainage (MLD) is a form of soft-tissue mobilization. Our body’s immune system is highly dependent on the lymphatic system function.

The lymphatic system is located close to the surface of the skin and is composed of a fluid containing infection-fighting white blood cells, and vessels (ducts and nodes) that transport the fluid.

The MLD process involves a light vibratory touch to encourage the lymphatic fluid flow toward the main lymphatic ducts and back into the blood system.

MLD can effectively decrease post - surgical and traumatic edema (swelling). In addition it relieves symptoms of fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, fatigue, migraine headaches, stress and more.
