Conference speakers
Cameron Broughton - Master of Ceremonies
Cameron is honored to welcome all of you who join us at our 2008 Earth Spirit Conference and will be your host for the weekend, her fourth year as MC. Opening the event with an introduction she will weave together the presenters topics and how they relate to the theme of the weekend, Wisdom for Changing Times. She delights in holding the space for presenters and attendees, creating an atmosphere of unity and ease. Cameron and her husband Glenn lead tours of transformation to sacred sites and crop circles through Sacred Britain. She is also co-founder and one of the organizers of this conference.
Peter Knight
Thirteen Moons - Conversations with the Goddess
In this presentation Peter addresses how to reconnect with the Earth Spirit and sacred sites in a way that will benefit both the participant and the Planet. Ley lines, earth energies, creating your own reality, synchronicity and much more are covered. "Better than the Da Vinci Code", is how one reviewer described his book of the same name. Peter believes in personal experiential interaction with the landscape and its sacred sites and advocates that we must rekindle ancient wisdom and rediscover ways of living in harmony with the Earth - before it's too late. His message is hopeful and inspiring.
Peter Knight resides in Dorset, UK, and is well known for his inspiring and enthusiastic workshops, talks and field trips concerning our ancient spiritual heritage, sacred sites and ley lines. He is a Reiki Master and co-founder/chairman of the Dorset Earth Mysteries Group. He hosts the Conventions of Alternative Archaeology and Earth Mysteries, held annually in Dorset. In 2007 Peter spoke at Megalithomania, the Forbidden Knowledge Convention, both in Glastonbury, and the International Metageum Convention on Malta. His fourth book, on which this presentation is based, has received critical acclaim and will be available at the conference. www.stoneseeker.net
Peter will be conducting a post-conference workshop.
Meredith Holcomb
Crop Circle Visual Journey
We invite you to sit back, relax and disengage your left brain for just about 20 minutes as we inspire your heart through the awesome array of images of this summer's formations. A short Q&A will immediately follow.
Meredith Holcomb has been a passionate "Croppie" for the past 8 years, traveling in summer to Wiltshire, England to study and absorb what she believes is the most magical phenomenon happening on our planet. Having reached no scientific conclusions or any proof of how they are made, she feels that the significance of the Crop Circles lies in their ability to defy, transform and transcend limited human reasoning, wherein the gift of awakening to who we truly are can be inspired.
In addition, she enjoys a very full schedule as yoga instructor and Reiki Master - the avenues for her deep commitment to helping others access their wholeness and connection to the Divine. She runs a private yoga studio in her home town of Hood River, Oregon and travels the globe inspiring teachers and students. For more information, please visit M Yoga Studio.
Open Forum - new feature!
This year a new addition to the format is an Open Forum session. This space gives you the opportunity to share your 'wisdom for changing times' with the whole conference. Cameron will facilitate this sharing of news, insights and opinions from all those present.
Jane Buchan and Lynn Hartwood
Sacred Ground Dance
Jane and Lynn, facilitators of Sacred Ground Dance, invite you to experience the reverence and joy of dancing in community with the seen and unseen worlds. These 'sweaty prayers' require no previous dance experience, attune participants to the mysterious forces at work throughout the universe, and invite the open hearted connectedness that is the inspiration for all spiritual practice. Deeply moving, wildly joyful, and touched by the unexpected, these dances call us to deepen our experience as co-creators of this magnificently evolving universe.
Francine Blake
The Relevance of Crop Circles in these Changing Times
Everyone can notice that the world works according to the Laws of Change. Most people know now that we are at the end of a very long cycle, which was called the Great Cosmic Year, that will end in 2012. This is not just Mayan knowledge; it was also known in the Chinese, Indian and Greek traditions. Ancient texts mention that 'signs' will appear at those end times to give human beings the knowledge necessary to cope with the new energy. All over the planet, thousands of designs have been found, and continue to be found in fields and other ground covers, that have had the effect of making us reassess the way we see reality. Francine will go through the evolution of crop circle designs and show examples of the lines of symbols that she feels are important for humanity in this time of great change.
Francine has lived in the heart of the crop circle country in England since 1992. She has run the Wiltshire Crop Circle Study Group, organizes its annual Crop Circle Conference and edits the monthly newsletter, The Spiral. She is an internationally respected authority on the subject. www.wccsg.com
Glenn Broughton
Secrets of the Universe
Glenn’s journeying through ancient sacred sites and the modern mystery of crop circles has been a pathway to both universal truths and his own personal spirituality. He has found that such places of the Earth spirit have opened up access to the unseen world that underlies reality. There he has discovered many secrets held in the landscape that he believes have important ramifications for our lives and the world today. These ‘secrets’ have always been there on open view and now news of them is spreading from many sources and helping us realign with the Earth and our destiny. As always Glenn’s presentation will be full of passion, emotion and humour.
Glenn is a teacher, healer and tour guide and gives presentations on both sides of the Atlantic. He has set up and led a non-profit community arts center, Earth Mysteries groups and ethical businesses. With Cameron he leads people on journeys of transformation to sacred lands through Sacred Britain Tours: www.sacredbritain.com. He also co-organizes this conference, now in its seventh year.
Hugh Newman
The Psychic Children - 'Re-Evolution or Revolution'?
Hugh will explore the phenomenon of the Indigo children and how they are the first signs of the coming consciousness transition. Are they the new 'Root Race' incarnating on our planet and do they hold ancient knowledge that could also be the key to the future? After meeting some Indigo children in 2003, this led Hugh to research the Planetary Grid and how the ancients placed sacred sites around the world according to precise geometric and mathematical principles. The children work on harmonising the grids by conscious meditation and understanding the subtleties of earth energies, something that we are starting to learn again today. Hugh will also describe how ancient prophecies revealed the children would appear just before 'the shift of the ages' and how with their power they can calmly deal with the transitioning world. Unfortunately, our kids are being poisoned by vaccinations, Ritalin and harmful foods, which is now being properly exposed in the media, but the Indigo children go beyond this and have a power and wisdom that is getting them noticed.
Hugh Newman is an earth mysteries and esoteric science researcher. He organises the Megalithomania Conferences (megalithomania.co.uk), co-edits Avalon Rising magazine (avalonrising.co.uk) and is the Earth Energies & Divinatory Arts area coordinator for the Big Green Gathering where 20,000 attend. He has researched the Indigo child phenomenon first-hand and recently published a book on the subject - see psychicchildren.co.uk. He has spoken at conferences in the UK, Malta and South America and is an honorary member of The Antiquarian Society.
Graham Hancock
A Species with Amnesia
It's often been said that those who forget the lessons of the past are doomed to repeat them. But what if we have forgotten an entire, hugely important episode in human history? Myths and legends from all over the world insist that a great civilization that was technologically advanced, powerful and wise existed in deep antiquity but was wiped from the face of the earth when it "angered the gods". In this lecture, Graham Hancock makes the case for a lost civilization destroyed in a global cataclysm at the end of the last Ice Age around 12,500 years ago and argues that our civilization, too, despite its technological prowess, might be poised on the brink of becoming the next Atlantis.
Graham Hancock is the author and coauthor of a number of best-selling investigations of historical mysteries, including Fingerprints of the Gods, Supernatural, The Sign and the Seal, The Message of the Sphinx, Heaven's Mirror, The Mars Mystery and Underworld. His books have been translated into 20 languages and have sold more than 4 million copies worldwide. www.grahamhancock.com
Graham will be conducting a post-conference workshop.
Bearcloud
Timeless Wisdom, Endless Truths
Rod Bearcloud has spent most of his life as a vision-seeker, which reflects in his paintings and the stories he tells of ancient ways within them. He has spent 35 years deeply immersed with his traditions, connection with spirit and ceremonial ways. In 1997, when he became involved with crop symbols appearing in wheat fields of England, he felt he could understand much of what was being gifted because of the overlapping similarities. He saw deep hidden symbols within the Starglyphs that he realized were important for all of the people of Earth, and thus began a journey. Bearcloud uncovered geometry that left even the finest of mathematicians spellbound. All of this led to uncovering secrets of the pyramids of Egypt that had lain dormant, hidden within the stones of these monolithic structures for 5,000 years. Bearcloud has begun sharing those hidden secrets with the world. Wisdom of ancient peoples is timeless and universal truths are endless. All of this has led to a vision he calls The Chameleon Project, that Bearcloud feels is important during these changing times. www.starnationgallery.com
Jude Currivan
A Co-Creator's Guide to the Whole-World
|
During the Conference Jude will be offering a small number of healing sessions. If you are interested in booking a session with Jude please contact her at to arrange it. Life-changing, empowering sessions that take you beyond the personality level to directly experience your own highest guidance. Jude leads you into the 8th chakra of the Universal Heart, to heal any issues at a soul level. Sessions take you to the root of old issues (maybe lifetimes ago) to clear them at their source. Sessions last an hour and cost $140. |
We are living through an accelerating shift of consciousness that is taking us, both personally and collectively, on an incredible journey of discovery. At a critical time when we are also at the threshold of a global breakdown, the shift is expanding our awareness to enable us - if we choose - to co-create a breakthrough. It is enabling us to re-member who we really are and our true relationship with the whole-world.
Jude will share how our hidden heritage is now being revealed, how we are now able to become ever-more conscious co-creators of our realities and her understanding of our amazing cosmic destiny.
Dr Jude Currivan PhD is a healer, sensitive, cosmologist and Hay House author of The 8th Chakra, The 13th Step, CosMos (co-authored with Ervin Laszlo PhD), and Heart, Mind and Purpose, a double CD of her teachings and attunements. www.judecurrivan.com
