Sacred Sites Cruise I
CCC Boat Cruise July 4, 2009 by Caroline Vrba

Our journey today is about how we can support the healing of the earth and bring peace to earth through faith and trust. And how we will find our own path by freeing up space, so that we can fill up that space with new solutions. We asked that the dolphin energy be with us as we ride the rhythmic nature of life in laughter and joy, just like the dolphins smile with the purpose of supporting the children of the earth.  It is the underwater cities connecting to the great star nations and our responsibilities of meeting the needs of the children at this new time that will support the new world and get us through these challenging times.

We gathered at the Deep Cove Marina and set off on a healing voyage aboard the Lady Selena to Saanich Inlet at 10 a.m. on Saturday July 4.  The word Saanich means, “the land of plenty”, according to our Caption Trevor, who graciously motored us through the waters of the Saanich Penninsula.

When looking on a map, we noticed the North Saanich Penninsula has a feminine shape that resembles a woman, with the brow chakra at Moses Point, the heart chakra at Yarrow point, and the root chakra at Hagan Bight.

Our first stop took us to Mount Maxwell, where Angela Tongue lead us through a visualization to open our sight as we observed the rock face at the top of the mountain and experienced rainbows, elephant faces, and a code of sorts that seemed to resemble Morse code.  The feeling at Mount Maxwell is of a feminine energy, especially her heart assurance and the strength of her will.

















We picked up our lunch, prepared by Bruce’s kitchen on Salt Spring Island, and headed to Cowichan Bay for our picnic. 
We enjoyed delightful sandwiches, pasta salad and cooked vegetables while sitting on the covered dock just off the shore.  Many of us enjoyed drinking the healing alkaline waters provided by a CCC member to help aid in raising our vibration and opening our consciousness.































































































We were blessed and received personal healing with the presence of the eagles, seals, jellyfish, sun circles, and rainbows as we passed by the chakra points of the North Saanich Penninsula, to receive a clearing of our own chakras.   Along the journey, we experienced the signs in the physical world that showed us our presence in the Saanich Pennisula was heard, seen, felt, and received by nature, the angelic realm, the unseen world, and the planetary consciousness that surrounded us on July 4, 2009, aboard the Lady Selena, as we supported the healing of the Earth and Earth’s Waters.
First Sacred Sites Cruise - a resounding success!

CCC, thanks to the generosity of Trevor May, owner of the Lady Selena - a beautiful, 53-Foot motor yacht - has begun offering Sacred Sites Cruises to key areas around Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands. 

This page is dedicated to our first Cruise, with stories, photos, and insights from those who took part in this magical day on the water!

Shortly after our departure from Cowichan Bay, Lisa Cole called in the directions and grounded the boat for us as we opened sacred space together. Peter Tongue brought in the angelic realm, the space brothers and sisters, the water creatures including the dolphins and whales.

Shortly after we opened our ceremonial space we experienced a circular rotating vortex of energy surrounding the boat and anchored in a strong light energy into the ocean’s floor beneath the center of the boat. 

We continued on and found a spot in the center of a five pointed star that Peter had outlined on a map for us of the area.
Here we blessed Pacha Mama with a wreath of roses that was created by the group and included feathers and two rose quartz stones.  We sent our prayers for our community and ourselves into the wreath and petals of the roses as they were placed into the waters of the ocean. 

After which, we experienced another energetic circle around the boat that carried a different energy and brought a connection to the etheric realm, especially the sea creatures located in the ocean.  At this time, we noticed a yellow light circle around the sun, more visible to the eye with sun glasses on, as we watched some jellyfish greet the roses floating on the ocean.

Our next stop was Todd Inlet in Brentwood Bay, where Peter would lead us in opening a clearing portal to help any earth-bound souls or light beings to cross over.  This was an area where old decaying boats and barges been abandoned and were creating some toxic build-up in the area. 

When we stopped, Peter asked Lisa where the portal should be opened.  At that moment, we all looked up and saw a double halo around the sun, one made of yellow light and one rainbow-colored.  Lisa didn't have to answer - we all knew we were already in the centre of it! 

After we had closed the portal, Leslie Black remarked that, “when you heal the templates of the ocean, the ocean can physically heal itself”.

Moments later, we dropped a yellow calcite crystal into the water, to bring in Archangel Azreal - “the angel of death” - to continue the clearing process for any any remaining stagnant energy, and to protect the area.

Ernie said that he saw a cone of light where the calcite entered the water and the impact of its presence affected over 2000 square miles immediately around the area.  We saw thousands of beautiful clear moon jellyfish in the waters of Brentwood Bay as we slowly left the area.
As we sailed on, Lisa Cole drummed for us and sent some of the participants on a meditative journey that took them to far away places.

As we reached our final sacred location at Moses Point, the brow chakra of “The lady of the North Saanich Peninsula”, we heard a singing eagle and basked in the vibrations of her song.  The eagle had shown us where to stop.

Based on a vision by one of our members, a  short ceremony took place to celebrate the three mountains-mount Maxwell in the North, Mount Newton in the East and Mount Baldy in the West. 

Peter Tongue added that the three diamonds we would release into the waters represented these three mountains and the three stars of Orian’s Belt Buckle.

According to Peter, who believes that when we pass over, our souls leave the earth plane through Orian’s Belt and this constellation is also where we access other dimensions of higher consciousness. 

After the three diamonds were placed in the water around the boat, we noticed that the boat rocked from side to side but there were absolutely no waves or wake around the boat!

Peter commented that the diamond shape represented the compression of all that we are-condensed into a diamond point, and that in fact we are the relics or the masters, that we have been searching for.

From Leonard Thornton:

The day was most perfect in all ways, starting with the beautiful, sunny weather and the opportunity to board the Lady Selena, much gratitude for Trevor!  Thanks to Peter for the foresight to organize our itinerary in such a way as to provided maximum opportunity for group ceremony and private reverie!

As I was sending my blessing to Mt. Maxwell and connecting to the Deva of the mountain, I sensed the Presence of a being calling himself, Maxi-millan'd (the "d" is very soft).  There was a sense of sadness at the state of the environment, but much more a sense of radiating joy and gratitude for our presence and our intentions.  I have personally been blessing the elementals on a daily basis for many years and was informed that such blessing is most needed and appreciated.  We are all encouraged to do so whenever we think of it!

After Lisa's wonderful invocation to the beings of the four directions and the appearance of the Elohim circle, I felt the energy of the whole area become lighter and even more uplifting as we were sailing away.   I was pleasantly reminded that the Spiritual Forces have unlimited abilities in this regard!

I could go on, but feel to limit myself to a final expression of gratitude for all who came and contributed their Presence and energies to a most wonderful service for the area and the planet.  You are all indeed blessed and a blessing!

From Ernie/Pontus

I asked 2 questions this morning re our trip, here they are:

1. Please comment on our energy work of the CCC yesterday, thank you.

Hatonn and St. Germain: "A 2000 mile circle has been activated."

2. What exactly have we accomplished, thank you?

Hatonn and St. Germain:  "As stated before, ALL celestial and etheric Beings need to be 'asked' (or empowered) to proceed with a specific mission(s). This was done collectively by the group. We thank thee all.
From Ernie's notes:

"What we saw in the sky as a 'halo', was inverted to encompass the 2000 mile diametres of the circle, forming a perfect diamond-shape in between."

Selena is the Greek goddess of the Moon. 
Angela’s friend, just a few days prior to the Cruise,
had a baby girl – and named her: “Selena”! 

Sacred Cruise Insights by Rob Mason

It was said by Mahatma Gandhi “we must be the change we want to see in the world”.  I am also reminded that he said in reference to the oft- quoted Old Testament scripture:  “eye for an eye will make the whole world blind.”

This may seem a strange way to introduce my experience while aboard the Lady Selena during the Sacred Sites Cruise- bear with me, please. The many references and information on the topics of Sacred Geometry, though fascinating, conjured for me spectres of junior high mathperhaps a matter to be brought forth duringa future healing ceremony.












I knew nothing of this prior to being on the cruise; I had simply been drawn to this particular pendant, the onlyone of many others the artist had created.

My prayers and meditation had been centered on my continuing to evolve, increasing my capacity to show up in the world in an open hearted fashion, realizing that peace begins with me as indicated in the openingquotation.

The change in itinerary that resulted in the alternative marina for our lunch stop (Cowichan Bay) also made possible my path to cross with that of my former wife (whom I have been separated from for the past year) and a young niece. The nature of the cruise, which led to this meeting.

It seems fitting that today, the same day that I wasrequested to provide a written account of my experience on the cruise, I also received a phone call to attend a meeting to sign the divorce papers. There was a great deal of love, mutual respect, honouring of our differences and acknowledgement that each create for themselves a world

Thank you Great Spirit for your guidance and inspiration thank you.
The presence of the eagles was not lost on me and the next synchronicity came in the form of the discussion re: Salt Spring Island being shaped like a dragon and then someone in the group raising the topic of turquoise.  It so happened I was wearing a necklace on the cruise purchased a month or so ago, the pendant being a pewter dragon upon a circular turquoise disc.

Some mental healing properties of turquoise include: serenity,creativity, empathy, sensitivity, and intuition.  Also known to benefit the heart chakra by opening it, forgiving,and receiving love.

Here are some things I've discovered:   

Jellyfish teach us about faith and acceptance, as they have very little ability to move on their own.  They surrender to the tides, flow with currents, dance with the moon.  They always have trust that they are moving towards their  sustenance.

The jellyfish is a very simple, efficient organism that is the same today as it was when it first made its appearance on Earth.  It has not seen any necessity to change its form over all of this time.  Therefore, we may look to it as a model to aspire to in our own process of evolution.  

The Jellyfish is completely transparent – we can see all of its inner workings; there are no secrets; it holds nothing in, lets life – water – flow through freely.  As we become more conscious, individually and as a global community, we become more and more transparent.  As we become more transparent, we shine even brighter.   

When we look deeply into a jellyfish's belly, we can see the electricity, the incredible amount of power it generates. It shows us how much light we have at our own center.  It shows us that we can always turn on that light bulb inside of us, no matter how dark it may be on the outside.

The jellyfish can show up in our lives at that moment when all seems lost.  It shows us that we carry our own source (and re-sources) deep inside of us.  We are more powerful than we realize.  Jellyfish wisdom teaches us how to claim our power and use it wisely.  

The jellyfish carries the medicine of the lightning bolt. Its stingers show us that even the most delicate and vulnerable organism can protect and feed itself, but only when  necessary.  The jellyfish can show up as a spark of insight – firing synapses – a Eureka moment!  It can come to energize us and light our path, just when we need it most.   

The moon jellies are the gentlest of all: no stingers, but pure, transparent moon-bodies.  We see so many on this day, especially in the Brentwood Bay area, literally thousands of them.  I am so intrigued by this phenomenon that I do some research.  What I learn is even more intriguing:  the proliferation of moon jellies (or Aurelia, as the species is called) is part of a growing trend – not only in Brentwood Bay, but world-wide

When I look up the Latin word "Aurelia", I find: "The chrysalis, or pupa of an insect, esp. when reflecting a brilliant golden color, as that of some of the butterflies."  I feel that, the Aurelia are coming as thousands of mirrors, thousands of bright - enlightened - souls, to show us who we are becoming – individually, and as an evolving collective consciousness.   

Jellyfish do not have brains because they share one mind.  These jellyfish depend on each other – their extended ‘family’ - for survival, and they have done this since the beginning of time.  They show us not only how to grow - but flourish - as a Community. 

And today, they appear to us as thousands of shining souls, celebrating our Ceremony, our Blessings, our Clearing of the waters.  Their bright and gentle existence reminds us how easily we can live in harmony and grace and beauty with each other, All Our Relations, and our sweet Earth. 
The Jellyfish Connection by Lisa Cole

Today, on the day of the Cruise, we see jellyfish everywhere we go. When we open the clearing portal in Todd Inlet, I see the Jellyfish Nebula in my imagination, a gigantic light bulb turning on.  As we leave Brentwood Bay afterwards, we see thousands of beautiful, transparent "moon" jellyfish…..  

I wonder what the jellyfish connection is.  The jellyfish totem is not one I have encountered before, at least not consciously.  But lately, they seem to be popping up everywhere, from the movie 7 Pounds to the new Ocean Discovery Centre in Sidney, to walks on the beach, conversations, documentaries on TV... Jellyfish seem to be streaming through our collective consciousness right now – why is that?
