Chapter 6

Now it was dark, he was back in his body kind of, on raised mound next to the square hole. He was with a woman with long blond hair and they both were looking down the hole at the light coming out of it. He stood there next to her and looked in her eyes. She looked in his eyes. He heard himself say, “I recognize you.” This time she said nothing but just looked back at him and smiled. Then, he looked up and saw a star in each cardinal direction and another star in the center right over the hole. When he closed his eyes slightly he could see lines that led from the stars down into the hole. The lines were made of fire not bright more like candles in the darkening dusk sky.

Then, the two eagles walked from their perch on the rock and dropped down into the hole and quickly the dog followed. An energy came from the hole now that was more intense and powerful. Quite suddenly he took the woman’s hand and they walked to the edge of the hole and jumped into the red warm light. He did this without fear or hesitation, it was as if something moved his body for him and he surrendered to it as he breathed in. To his surprise they landed quickly on soft earth. It was not far down, they guessed about six feet, the ground was soft sand and they were not hurt. It was as if something caught them as they were falling. He looked around him. Now the red light had disappeared and it was completely dark. He rested for a moment and felt her and still in his. He got used to the dark and now could see faintly their surroundings. It seemed to be a huge circular room. He could not even see the edges, he though he could feel them but they seemed soft and far away, maybe even moving he thought. The roof which he knew was not far up now seemed very far away and he could see stars like it was not there. the hole they dropped through was nowhere to be seen. The floor was soft sand raked clean and there was a fire pit in the center. Suddenly the fire pit lit up and a strange fire ignited. It was not flames more like glowing rocks without much heat, like rocks glowing from energy within. The light was eerie like fairy light or star light.

He looked at the woman next to him. In the red star light she was beautiful. Her face was illuminated and seemed to glow from within. He could see her third eye open and her throat chakra open. In the strange red glow he could also see her body under her clothing like her clothing was transparent. It was as if she was illuminated and her clothing was no longer necessary or effective in covering her. It was as if here in this place nakedness was the truth of being. He looked down at himself and it was the same. His clothing no longer covered him and his body looked strong and healthy and like hers was lit up. Then, her body floated onto him and the two light bodies were superimposed on each other and merged with a popping sound. At the same time he saw his physical body and her physical body in their clothes standing next to each other and saw the merged light being between them like a phantom. Now, he turned to her and spoke, “Do you see?” She turned towards him in her physical body and said, “Yes, I see our merged light bodies. That is the Spirit Lovers core form. I know this vision, I have never seen it with my inner eye, but I have seen it in my soul essence.”

They stood together their physical bodies next to each other. They were still holding hands like children. They looked down at the pit where the red stones were glowing and looked up at the starlight above. Then he saw the star beams coming down and the red stones beams going up and they met in the center of the chamber and formed a bear kachina like the ones he saw in his dream. And then, the merged light being that was their two naked bodies as one slowly turned into a bear kachina and started dancing around them. As the dual being danced, they began to see beings forming from nothing appearing around them. They were in a large circle and doc and the woman were in the center and the light being kachina was hovering above them. The figures started to gather form and become women and men, elders in ancient Hopi costumes, children playing, all were sitting in a peaceful group in the circle.

One of the elders spoke. “ Welcome to our cememonial kiva. This is a bear ceremony. You have been brought here as a dual bear spirit being to do work. There has been a terrible happening here and it needs to be healed backwards and forwards in non time and non space. That will be your work together. We will teach you what you need to know, you will see it in visions and in dreams and you will know what to do. We cannot do this from spirit space so we have called you as dual bear spirit to come to us now. Thank you ancestors, spirit animals, spirit guides, teachers, lovers, grandmothers and grandfather of the four directions, Creator/ Mother Earth for this sacred meeting, the plan, and the work we will do together.”
