"A dream is a piece of reality...whose meaning is pregnant but uncertain, and whose fate in the world of the waking-ego lies in our own hands. If we treat it with respect, it serves us. There is never any doubt as to its underlying concern for our ultimate welfare." James Hall
When I came across this website I was so excited to see the information provided on dreams and the Iroquois and its reference to Six nations and the Iroquois. The title of the page was "THE IROQUOIS DREAM EXPERIENCE and SPIRITUALITY " Immediately, I began deliciously devouring the stories, histories and connections to depth psychology and the dreams, practices and rituals of the First Nation's people. I felt that I was in my element, and my sense of purpose was full throttle. The stories and myths grabbed my fascination immediately and I realized how the "Great Spirit", the Creator brought this wonder to me. Thank you!!!
My first impression and connection was to the first mask. At once, my mind began thinking of the look of my new blog and its layout and how that intriguing picture would be "perfect". I didn't see the irony in this reaction until I later read the description of the mask "First Mask: False face"
Yes, there it was and it was undeniable. The persona, or the false face smiling back at me, laughing at me, the mask ridiculing me out of my awareness.
As a person who had to hide a key element of my ancestry while living a family life filled with much denial and shame, the mask or the face I project to the world has taken me along way. The lies I have told myself and others in order to be accepted, to "fit in" and to succeed, have been a heavy burden. The hurts I have caused and endured in order to "save face" have cost me in so many ways. Pretending, denying and blindly accepting non-truths in order to be accepted, liked, to succeed and "keep the peace" have caused me great damage over the years. And what for? The illusion of social acceptance, the illusion of being worthy and "good enough".
The Iroquois mask "The False Face" reminds me of the ridiculousness in believing or taking too seriously the masks I wear, and the importance of remembering that any mask is not secure or permanently fixed to the soul. It can come off at any time.

and it will show you the Hiero - glyphics = Sacred Symbols = Imagi -nation = Serpent ??????????????????? For thousnads of years, spiritual teachers of Jewish = Yewish or Hebrew IsRaElite traditions claimed that the five major Hebrew texts making up the Torah = Tarot = Truth were 'holy', of special significance, and of supernatural origin...and they were right. By producing an exact copy of the spiral shape of the Rainbow Serpent from plastic, brass, a strip of metal or a similar solid substance, its significance becomes apparent, and that item could be best described as 'light descended into matter'. It is the primary element of both the Book of Thoth and the Secret in the Bible and the precise twisty shape of the Rainbow Serpent provides the necessary form to physically demonstrate a major part of the Secret. When the plastic or metal reproduction of the Rainbow Serpent is slowly revolved, 22 different shaped shadows are cast from that one element, and those shapes directly make up the 22 seperate letters of the alphabet that the Torah was written in. Put in simplest terms, the alphabet in which the Torah of the Bible was originally and secretly written was one composed of a series of 22 cosmic glyphs that emanated with 'splendour and power in the form of a serpent' from a vertical spiral of light in the Benben on top of the Great Pyramid in Egypt. Evidence of that knowledge points directly at the undeniable input of a higher intelligence, a superior mind source."

Hey Seneca!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment.I am still trying to get it to show up on my blog! (my first comment thank-you)
I will check out your links!. Yes, as we both know there has been a great sublimation of history, especially religious history throughout antiquity and your reflection is important because, so much of the deeper more meaningful reflections of our learned spirituality is based on overlapping dogma. I am happy that you posted your comment regarding the ancient Torah texts, Jesus and the holy spirit under "False Masks", as it is clear that the intention of the "false face" has dominated religion and has been a profound barrier to the fuller connection to the light and truth within all of us.
with gratitude,
Colleen
