We are entering the gateway of THE BEEHIVE CLUSTER (M44)

Sky Gazers and Gatekeepers !
As the sun moves along its ecliptic path through the sky, we turn our attention to the next stargate of the ecliptic....the Beehive Cluster (M44) in the Constellation Cancer The Crab.

The Beehive Cluster is a group of over 1,000 stars, connected by gravitation pull to each other.  This star cluster is one of our nearby neighbors.  In the Orion spiral Arm of our Milky Way galaxy.  Right down the road in galactic terms. 

The Beehive Cluster is associated with the pineal gland in the human body.  This association comes from the fact that in the midheaven (or top of the circle) of a traditional astrology wheel or chart, we have the zodiac sign of cancer.  Also, the location of the star cluster in relation to the body of the crab (as drawn by the stars) appears to be in the “forehead” of the crab. 

This cluster made itself known to me several years back, working with a stone chamber astronomical calendar site.  It is a Beehive Chamber.  Aligned to the setting sun on the June equinox (and many other settings too).  When I was exploring with Sky Safari (the app on my phone, and source for many of the screenshot pics shared in this post) at the Beehive Chamber, i noticed the sun moving in to the area of the sky with the Beehive Cluster.  Buzz Buzz BUZZZZZZZ.....

Many of us feel and sense and intuit that these beehive stone chambers were used as temples of sound.  For vocal toning and chanting.  The monks in Ireland built many temples and dwellings and spaces of worship out of this corbelled dry stack stone beehive shape.  One article I read talked about them being able to hold 10-12 monks standing shoulder to shoulder in a circle.  While the article did not state this, I got the strong and clear message that these chambers were used for (among other things) chanting.  Vocal toning.  Sound healing resonating chambers.
Buzz...buzz...BUUUUUZZZZZZZZ !

THE GOLDEN GATE OF THE ECLIPTIC
Unlocking the KEYS from the SKY TABLET OF TAL-QADI
 
My ancestors are from Malta (my birth name is Bonnici). The temples on Malta have been calling me very loud for many years. I feel like my natural proclivity for sound codes come from this lineage and DNA line of mine. One Maltese Temple in particular started projecting codes my way and calling to me super duper loud during this Mars Pleiades gateway. Tal Qadi Temple. In the ruins and wreckage of this ancient star temple was found an etched stone, that is thought to be a star map. This stone is considered by some to be the oldest astronomical tool or sky map, dated around 4,000 BC.
 
The Golden Gate of the Ecliptic is an asterism (recognizable grouping of stars) in the constellation Taurus that has been known for several thousand years. The constellation is built by the two eye-catching open star clusters of the Pleiades and the Hyades that form the two posts of a virtual gate at the two sides of the ecliptic line.
Since all planets as well as the moon and the sun always move very closely along the virtual circle of the ecliptic, all these seven orbiting bodies are regularly passing through the Golden Gate of the Ecliptic. 
 
I draw your attention today to this GOLDEN STAR GATE.  This stargate has held great significance for humanity since ancient times.  It is a section of the night sky that calls loudly to many of us, the Sirius, Orion, Aldebaran, Hyades, Pleiades region.  

​Uncovered on the Island of Malta in excavations of 1927 was an etched limestone tablet.  Now known as The Sky Tablet of Tal-Qadi, this tablet is an ancient star map and astronomy tool.  Used around 4000 BC, this sky map/tablet shows us the passage of the Sun, Moon and the five visible planets through the Golden Gate.

2021 Golden Gate Alignments
 
Mars – March 7-19
On March 7, 2021 – Mars entered this Golden Gate
We are in this illuminated gateway until about March 19 when the moon joins Mars in this Golden Gate.

This slideshow shows day by day alignments from May 3 - May 30, as Mercury, Venus and then the Sun flow through the Golden Gate inMay, 2021.  Screen shots from my iPhone app, Sky Safari.

Golden Gate in May 2021 
We have Mercury, Venus and the Sun flow through this gate:
Mercury          May 2 - 6
Venus             May 6 - 15
Sun                May 16 - 29
 
The Golden Gate of The Ecliptic also serves as a moon “observatory”.  As the Moon passes through the gate over the year, it moves through its various phases.  In fact, if you watch the moon pass through this gate through the 12 months of the year, it will highlight and showcase the progression of the moon through its phases.  I continue researching on the building of stone archeoastronomy calendars and tracking of Lunar Standstills and how our ancestors used this gate as a marker to design these lunar calendar sites.
 
There is a correlation between Chaco Canyon, New Mexico, Pilot Mountain, North Carolina and this temple on Malta.  All three sites sit around the 36th longitude parallel.  They all hold some crystalline coding along this parallel, and there is a correlation between the astronomical observation point of the Tal-Qadi temple on Malta, and the astronomical alignment stones set to mark the lunar standstill cycles in Chaco Canyon.

We have a powerful sky alignment and dance of the Sun, Venus, the Moon, and including Mercury and Uranus too. The Sun, on its ecliptic path in our sky, slid along the sky to the tail of Cetus beginning around the new moon on March 14.  The Sun and Venus traveled together, getting closer and closer to each other until they met up on March 26, in conjunction, right above the tail of Cetus in the sky!
​This auspicious sky alignment opened what I am informally calling the "Whale Window".

As Venus emerged from the sun's glare in the beginning days of April, Mercury came sliding in along the tail.  On April 11, the new moon joined the Cetus party. Mercury conjuncts the Sun on April 19, as the planet party nears the head of the whale.  ​​Here is where we bring in the coding and note the placement of Cetus A. (see previous blog post for more info).  

Friday April 23, Venus, Uranus and Mercury move close together over the head of Cetus.  
Then they make some cool weekend geometries as they code and dance around one another in the sky Saturday the 24th and Sunday the 25th.  Today (Sunday the 25th) Venus is directly under Mercury.  Anyone feeling a tug between head and heart?? This current alignment is indicative of these energies.

There is nothing to look at in the sky with this alignment window.  It is all happening quite close to the sun, and during the daytime.  This is a FEELING window.  Enjoy!

The WHALES came front and center for me again on Easter weekend.  I was celebrating at my father-in-law’s house, on the North Shore.  We had walked over to the fish market to get some for Easter dinner and were talking to the owner about lobster meat prices.  They were exorbitantly high, and we got to talking about it, and she said that lobster boats were mostly grounded now.  Only one could go out per day. As they were prohibited because of the whales.
 
Of course that piqued my interest, as whales have long been a steady shamanic presence in my world. I embarked on a renewed line of whale research, and the restrictions are to protect the endangered Right Whale. If you follow my Facebook page, I did a bunch of Right Whale posts that week, as I was researching. There are less than 400 of these whales left on earth, and the coast of new England and Canada is their spring early summer spot, after their southern migration to breeding grounds off the southern Carolina coast. They are in the Boston Harbor, and off the shores of Cape Cod this time of year, as they head North to Bay of Fundy for the summer.  The Right Whales are special to me, and I even saw one from the shore of Wellfleet last summer, and many on a whale watch years ago. The ocean researchers are so familiar with them, they have many of them named, by identifying patterns of barnacle growth on their backs, and seeing the same whales year after year.
 
Then, as it goes, I was seeing WHALE WHALE WHALE stuff everywhere!  It was like the whale song was calling to me, to re-awaken something in my soul.
 
Working as a “Galactic Shaman” – when an animal speaks to my soul like this, I often extend my research up into the stars and sky. Well, wouldn’t you know, the Sun is passing along the back of Cetus, the Whale Constellation right now!!!
 
Have you heard of Cetus?  It is not a super “popular” constellation, so you are in good company if you have not.  CETUS, the Whale, also referend to as sea monster or sea serpent, and is also known as the Dragon Fish!  Dragon Fish and Whale Constellation?? Ok, now you REALLY have my attention! ;-). One of the known Right Whales off our coast here is even named Dragon! Sadly, she is entangled in fishing gear and in poor health (see source article below for more).

Another thing of note in this constellation is Cetus A/Messier 77.  A barred spiral galaxy, like our Milky Way.  Of major “note” Cetus A has an active galactic nucleus (AGN), and is a strong source of radio emissions. Not all galaxies do this, so this one is “broadcasting”.  A galaxy that is “turned on” and broadcasting from its center, emits a huge jet that travel deep and far into intergalactic space.  If we (earth) are facing this jet, we are on the receiving end of the signal, and then these AGN are called radio galaxies, quasars or blazars.
 
There is a strong link here, the emitting active galaxies and the whale song.  Even portrayed and coded for us in the Star Trek movie, The Voyage Home.
Maybe the whales, in addition to all they do for us here on earth, are singing and communicating with distant galaxies.  
 
Whales awaken for us our own ability to “sing our soul song”.  The broadcast our signals HOME – to our star systems of origin.
 
Thank you whales, we LOVE you so!!!!

Venus becomes Dark Star today, as it conjuncts with the Sun. 
Dark...in that we cannot see it. However, the transmissions of Venus Codes are HIGH and strong. Remember how bright and captivating Venus has been in the evening sky? Today the Venus Light, the Venus power joins with the sun. So the Sun is “boosted” energetically as Venus light shines within the sun beams in this close alignment. 

Yesterday, last night, to me felt very much like Liminal Space. Threshold or transition. And I can phrase it no better than Jerry Garcia....
“Shall we go, you and I while we can
Through the transitive nightfall of diamonds?”

Venus and it’s diamond light codes. Transitive time. Transformative time. Diamond Squeeze continues globally.  Also from the palpably appropriate lyrics of Dark Star .... “Reason tatters, the forces tear loose from the axis”. 
Into the Dark Star we go!!
Venus is in exact alignment with Sun at 1:44 pm EDT today. 
​
Dark Star by The Grateful Dead
Dark star crashes, pouring it's light into ashes
Reason tatters, the forces tear loose from the axis
Searchlight casting for faults in the clouds of delusion
Shall we go, you and I while we can
Through the transitive nightfall of diamonds?
Mirror shatters in formless reflections of matter
Glass hand dissolving in ice petal flowers revolving
Lady in velvet recedes in the nights of good bye
Shall we go, you and I while we can
Through the transitive nightfall of diamonds?

​On June 3, 2020 Venus is in inferior conjunction with the sun as seen from earth.  This means that Venus is moving in its orbital path between the earth and the sun.  This is a powerful, powerful alignment.  It is “boosted” by the fact that two days later, on June 5, 2020 – we have a lunar eclipse.  So, this week, Sun, Venus, Earth and then the moon joins in to make an exciting “line up” in the solar system. 
 
Venus is now invisible to us on earth.  It is so close to the sun’s position in our sky, that it gets lost or “swallowed up” in the bright glare of the sun.  In ancient cultures, this was a very important cycle to pay attention to.  It heralded many changes and was so important that many cultures build huge markers and temples to honor and co-participate in this dance of Venus. Some ancient cultures believed the “god or goddess” associated with lights in the sky would visit the underworld during such periods of invisibility.  Many myths and traditions are rich with tales of these descents and ascents into and back out of the underworld.  Transformational things would happen for the culture and the beings in these myths around these times.
 
Venus has been such a constant bright light for us in the evening sky for the end of 2019 and all of early 2020. The last Sun Venus alignment was August 14, 2019.  It then climbed higher and higher into our twilight and evening sky.  The planet has had some speculator alignments with the crescent moon, always timed right during or before a big gateway.  It “visited” and code exchanged with many solar system buddies.
It conjuncted with Jupiter on November 24, 2019.  Then cruised by Saturn on December 10.  Made a spectacular showing with the Crescent Moon on December 28, and again Feb 27. Flowed right past Neptune on January 27, again with the Crescent Moon. Venus joined Uranus in the sky on March 7. Reached greatest elongation on March 24. Venus joined the Pleiades in the sky in a diamond display on April 3, 2020 – a once every eight years position. Venus was at its greatest brightness on April 27. Then nestled into a horn of Taurus the Bull with Mercury on May 22, as the Sun aligned with the Pleiades during a new moon.
 
We are in THE MOST powerful global realignment and recalibration and transformation in recent history.  When folks look back at our present moment, it will be the stuff of great stories of transformation and rising up, reemerging from a time of deep darkness into the light.  Just as you have all year, let Venus guide your way.  
 
The Rainbow Feathered Serpent was the Mesoamerican deity who was said to “midwife” and represent the rebirth and ascension of Venus back into light.  As the Morning Star.  Dawn Star. Heralded as a very powerful one.  Venus and its cycles and star light were very important and present for our ancestors.  Transcending the “fear” that we would be consumed in darkness, or that the world was falling apart or coming to an end.  Sound familiar? The return of Venus as a star in the morning sky gave some cultures a “relief” and a chance at rebirth.
 
For now….the next three days in particular…we are on the descent.  Moving with Venus into the depths, and the darkness.  Into the caves of creation within.  Remember that you will, we will emerge again.  INTO and AS the light.  

​Ancient cultures used this easily visible and distinguishable star cluster of the Pleiades to signify important seasonal markers, such as the spring equinox, the time to plant crops or the opening to seafaring season. 
 
In ancient myths, this was a time that these stars would descend into “the underworld” or below the horizon.  Astronomically, we know that the Sun has caught up with the Pleiades on its annual path across the ecliptic, the travel path of the sun and planets. On May 22 the sun moves to conjunct the Pleiades Star cluster in the constellation Taurus.  Pleiades are moving into the bright glare of the Sun, and rise and set with the sun, and for those of us viewing from planet earth they are not visible at night. 
 
When a star or planet lines up with the sun in our sky we say that they conjunct each other.  During this time, the sun amplifies and sends codes from this star system to us on earth.  We as gatekeepers conduct and welcome this energy and light and star encoded information into our own bodies, and then birth it onto earth and deliver it into the earth grids.

I am sharing this info with you, so that if you are called, you can actively work with this PLEIADES STARGATE AND GATEWAY energy.  Each of us will be called to work with the energy and star and sun light codes in different and unique ways.  Simply sitting out in the sun, and making an intention to connect with the Sun and Pleiades is "doing it".  You do it by being YOU.  If you are called to draw, dance or move, sing or tone, work with crystals or andaras, all that is amazing too.  Connect in, from your core, to the core of the sun, the core of each star.  Amazing things will happen friends.  You are the light conduit.  You are the light anchor and pathway.  You are a light conductor. Conduct away!!!
From the Source of ALL - to the core of our galaxy, out to each star, including or sun, to you, into the earth.

For those of us that are called to work with this Pleiades Stargate – here are the significant dates.  (and always remember, we work with quantum light and energy grids, so dates are less important than intention)

                  NEW MOON ​
                  NEW MOON CONJUNCTS PLEIADES
                   VENUS  CONJUNCTS MERCURY
 
JUNE 3 - SUN CONJUNCTS VENUS - Inferior Conjunction of Venus with the Sun is Exact on 3 Jun 2020 1:43:29 pm EDT in Gemini
 
 JUNE 4 - HELIACAL RISING OF PLEIADES - The Sun, Venus and Pleiades are in a line up - as Venus dances onto the other side of the solar plane - and at 4:07 am on June 4, the Pleiades peeks over the horizon in the predawn sky.  
 
JUNE 19 - MOON CONJUNCTS VENUS - The Moon moves between Earth and Venus, making a transit, and the moon is the sliver crescent moon, effectively "cupping" Venus as it rises at 4 am (EDT time). It happens within the Hyades, near Aldebaran.

Mercury is moving into superior conjunction with the Sun today, and into tomorrow.
Seen here from earth, Mercury is lining up in the sky with the sun, and sliding behind the sun and out of view. This astronomical alignment is called a superior conjunction.
So, for a day or two it is like the sun engulfs and consumes the other planetary body, and obscures and blocks us from seeing it directly.
Mercury is the plant closest to the sun. It is “quicksilver”, as it moves fast, and orbits the sun in 88 days. Mercury has been associated with messenger energy, known in some cultures as the “messenger of the gods”. It is also associated with the mind, perception, learning, thought and reason, communication, wit, wisdom, expression, intellectual adaptability, eloquence, mental flexibility, easy integration of knowledge, diplomacy.
The areas of the body Mercury is associated with are traditionally the lungs, the central nervous system, blood, arms, hands.
Conjunctions offer us a strong flows of energy and communication. When two celestial bodies align in the sky, they amplify each other. The boost each other. Expect more Mercury energy and codes coming through the sun rays today and tomorrow.

Hidden in plain sight!!!

​I’ve driven by this spot thousands of times over decades. 
Just last week these enormous split tower boulders caught my eye. I was all...what the blip are THOSE ?!? 
Got to go in on foot today. 
It is spectacular and full of alignments. At cursory scan with phone compass I say spilt is oriented to summer solstice set (270 deg). 
The large snake stone wall is direct north south aligned, and snakes around so that this split is at the “head”. The “small one” is a good 7 feet. Taller than me. The other two, hard to judge, at least 20 feet tall. Maybe more. 
So many features left to unlock and discover here!! I’ll be back!
