I have been listening to an audio this week that has made a profound impact on my heart and soul.

The book is called Anna, Grandmother of Jesus by Claire Heartsong. (you can find the audio book on YouTube) It is channelled through Claire from Anna herself, the mother of Mary and grandmother of Yeshua, and it reveals the hidden history of the Essene community that raised and initiated the Christ lineage.

I was raised in the Christian church. My mother was deeply active in it and I was there constantly throughout my childhood, but the mystical teachings were completely excluded.

The Essenes of Mount Carmel were practicing bilocation. They were working directly with ascended masters and light beings. They were doing vision quests. They were interacting with what we would now call galactic consciousness. They were working with plasma fields and practicing internal energy initiations passed down through mystery school lineages that stretch back through Egypt, India, and beyond.

These were the people at the very root of what became Christianity.

And yet it was all removed.

I am fascinated with the teaching in this book about Light Conception. 

Archangel Gabriel appeared to announce that it was time for the Divine to incarnate. A number of young Essene initiates were called forward at that time to prepare physically, mentally, and energetically in hopes to be the couple to bring the light of the Divine being who would be called Yeshua (aka Jesus) to the physical realm.

These were young men and women in the Essene brotherhood and sisterhood who had been prepared through years of sacred initiations. The initiated couples came together in tantric ceremony, not through physical union but through bringing divine light deliberately into their bodies, and through this sacred practice they conceived high divine souls into the physical plane. 

This is how Yeshua and his peers born in that same extraordinary window came into this world.  

Their lives were focused on practices to raise their frequency, work with light and light beings, calling in divine consciousness, communing with beings from other dimensions. Understanding the body as a vehicle for Divinity- they were practicing Embodied Ascension.

This is not "New Age" or alternative spirituality, this is the original spirituality, the OG, practiced by the very people Christianity was built upon, before it was systematically removed from the teachings.

I think about the child I was, sitting in church every Sunday, going to Sunday school, confirmation classes, so hungry for something real and not knowing what I was missing. I think about how different it might have been to have learned these teachings then, surrounded by peers also doing the work, and initiated adults who guided the way. 

Imagine growing up knowing that the grandmother of Jesus was a galactic initiate. That the conception of the Christ was a sacred light ceremony. That bilocation and vision quests and frequency work were not strange or forbidden but foundational requirements.

What we practice is sacred. It's not "woo-woo", it is ancient.

Perhaps that is why so many of us feel called toward meditation, energy healing, conscious breathing, frequency work, communion with nature, and direct spiritual experience.

We are not inventing something new, we are remembering what our ancestors knew that has been within us all along.

When we sit with the sacred... we are honoring our lineage and remembering who we have always been.
