WWeellccoommee

Thank you for your interest in our book and joining us for this brief exploration of one of the world’s greatest mysteries known as the crystal skulls or what the Mayans refer to as the “Crystal Heads.”

We are Joshua and Blue Arrow Rainbow, your hosts. Both of us have been involved with the crystal skulls for a number of years now. We collectively take care of over 50 skulls (heads) ourselves which we work quite closely with. You will encounter a few of these friends, later within this e-book.

We believe that the very old crystal skulls (also called ‘ancient’ skulls) which are publicly known within our world today represent one of the most important artifacts that have ever been discovered within our recorded history. Furthermore, we feel that each crystal skull (whether of an older or more modern design) has a significant role to play in our future that will eventually assist Mankind in many ways that will help us create a more peaceful world.

This small e-book is just a short introduction about the crystal skulls and a little bit about our personal work with them. However you will find at the end, a few links to various other sources that you can visit to further your own personal studies or research. Additionally we have included an overview of our new and more comprehensive book that is will be available in the 2nd half of 2008 (or has already been released) entitled:

Journeys of the Crystal Skull Explorers

The first version of this work was released as an e-book in 2004. This specific book includes information that we have gathered from over 25 years of travels and experiences with the crystal skulls. It also recognizes and honors many of the different individuals who have played a key role in educating the public about the skulls.

Thank you for taking the time to explore this e-book and bring us into your home. We hope you enjoy your stay with us. In Peace, Light, Love and Joy always ….

Joshua and Blue Arrow Rainbow The Crystal Skull Explorers 1

An Introduction

“What is a Crystal Skull?” – Well as this name or term implies we are speaking about a skull shaped object that is made from various types of crystals (clear, amethyst, smoky, rose, etc …). Most of us are familiar with quartz crystal as this gemstone is a key component within all of our modern-day electronics; devices that we use each and every day (including the computer you are using to read this book btw). There are many people today who work with their personal crystals in order to re- energize themselves, for healing (physical or emotional problems) or even to assist them in their development of their inner or spiritual gifts.

However, when one begins to work with a quartz crystal that is in the shape of a human- like skull – other strange phenomena begin to occur around them. We have received numerous reports from people all over the world having some very special experiences connected to the crystal skulls. There are three different types of crystal skulls that are spoken about in the world today as follows1:

“NEW or CONTEMPORARY” – These are crystal skulls that are being manufactured by modern carvers. There are thousands upon thousands of such skulls in existence today. Since the middle part of the 1990’s, there has been an explosion in the interest about the crystal skulls. There are quite a few people now, in all parts of our world, who have acquired their own personal skull to work with and use. The contemporary crystal skulls come in all shape and sizes and are being primarily done by carvers in and China. These skulls can even be found for sale upon E-Bay.

“Portal de Luz” – a smoky quartz “OLD” – a crystal skull that was created between crystal skull created by a Master 100 years ago to about 1000 years ago. A Carver from Brazil. Caretaker – number of these types of skulls have been Joshua Shapiro discovered within or near ancient ruins in Mexico or Central America. In general, the appearance of these crystal skulls are somewhat crude in form and upon a close examination of the surface of an “Old” crystal skull, there are usually observed some type of tool marks left by its carver, similar to what can be detected with the newly made crystal skulls.

2 “ANCIENT” -- a crystal skull which was fashioned at least 1500-2000 years ago or was created long long ago. It has been suggested that some of these crystal skulls could literally be (hundred of) thousands of years old based upon the studies conducted by various researchers. Also, it has been suggested (or implied) through various legends or oral traditions of different indigenous peoples that the ancient skulls are very very old. Presently there are only a small number of such crystal skulls known publicly. As to the exact number of how many ancient skulls could exist, this answer is unknown. At the present time, we do not have an exact scientific procedure to be able to date when a piece of quartz was shaped into a skull however there are a number of different ideas and theories about how one can definitively identify a crystal skull as being “ancient” (or even “old”). Again, many of these types of skulls appear to have some type of link with different Mesoamerican cultures as well as possible ties with various Native American tribes or nations within North America. We have even heard rumors of crystal skulls that have been found or are known within South America and in other parts of the world as well.

In general, we are unable to detect tool marks upon the surface of an ancient crystal skull. The implications of this condition suggests that either this particular skull was done completely by hand (over a long period of time) or perhaps, there was some form of very sophisticated and advanced technology that was utilized to make the skull, of which we are not familiar with as of yet. Most of the so-called very old or ancient crystal skulls we have personally met have a very intense energy field that surrounds them, of which many people are able to sense or feel. This energy field can be quite strong and powerful.

There are a number of different theories that have been given as to explain how these ancient skulls may have been manufactured; some of which are quite fantastic in their scope. It has been difficult to trace the true history about where these objects as far as where they may have originated from or what parts of the world they have traveled through. Attempts have been made by various groups to work with trained sensitives in the presence of a crystal skull and record the impressions that they psychically receive. However this method does not always guarantee success as the historical information channeled by these psychics does not always agree and even can be conflicting at times.

History of the Crystal Skulls – The public first became aware of the crystal skulls during the later part of the 19th century. At this time, many museums of the world became interested in displaying antiquities from past civilizations (Egypt, Greece, , etc …). Thus, in the 1878, in the Musèe de l’homme (the Museum of Man) in Paris and in 1898, in the British Museum in London, each had a clear quartz skull on public display. It is believed that both of these crystal skulls originated from within Mexico (possibly connected with ancient ruins or tombs) during the 1860’s, at the time of the French occupation of this country. Eventually both of these skulls somehow came into the possession of a French antiquities dealer, by the name of Boban and eventually found their way to the stated museums.

3 During the research for our new book, “Journeys of the Crystal Skull Explorers” we uncovered that there were a few other old or ancient crystal skulls that also made their way into private hands during the 19th century. Within recent years, these particular skulls are now held by various individuals who have publicly disclosed their existence and in some cases, are permitting other people to sit with them in private.

As we entered into the first part of the 20th century, there was an © Blue Arrow Rainbow & Joshua Shapiro entirely different group of crystal skulls that mysteriously surfaced. Photograph of the crystal skull held by the Within this group of skulls, there British Museum since 1898. The first human- sized crystal skull placed on public display. was also a strong connection with the ancestors of the indigenous people living in different parts of Mexico or Central America. Please find next a short description about some of the most well known skulls that emerged at this time:

“The Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull”: named after famed explorer and adventurer, F. A. Mitchell-Hedges, discovered in Lubaantum, an ancient Mayan city in Belize in 1924. This skull is human-size and made from an absolutely clear piece of quartz that includes a removable jaw. It is an almost exact copy of our own modern bone skull. At the current time this skull is in the hands of his adopted daughter, Anna Mitchell-Hedges (since the time of her father’s death in 1959).

“ET”: discovered by a Mayan family near Guatemala while digging on their property in 1906. This crystal skull was obtained by Joky Van Dieten in 1991 through a crystal store near Los Angeles. It is the only known human-size ancient crystal skull that is made from smoky quartz. In appearance it has a resemblance to a type of “ET” shape with a slightly pointed chin and similarly pointed in the top part of the head. This crystal skull now travels the world with its caretaker who hopes to share it with other people (including world leaders) to meditate with for world peace.

“Max” -- an 18 lb (8.2 kg) clear quartz crystal skull purportedly discovered in a Mayan tomb in Guatemala between 1924-1926. The skull was gifted by a Mayan Shaman to a Tibetan-trained lama in 1970. It was housed within his healing center in Houston, Texas and used as a healing tool to assist numerous patients who came to the center. Upon the lama’s death, the crystal skull was gifted to his close friends, Carl and JoAnn Parks. Currently Mrs. Parks is touring (primarily in the U.S.) with her crystal skull, providing many people an opportunity to experience this ancient skull directly.

4 “Ami”, the Amethyst Crystal Skull: It is stated by its current owners that it was believed to have once been part of a collection of crystal skulls held by the Mexican President Diaz (from 1876- 1910). Another report we have heard discussed that this skull may have been discovered in the Oaxaca area (Mexico) and was handed down from generation to generation through an order of Mayan Priests. This is smaller than human-size skull and weights 8.5 lbs. (3.86 kg). “Ami” now resides in San Jose, California with a group of businessmen © Stan Chan & Al Ramirez who are offering it for sale. “Ami” – an ancient amethyst crystal skull; notice the circular indentation in the temple areas and its style of design.

So, why are the Crystal Skulls so Important? There is no simple answer to this question. The study of the crystal skulls is very complex and seems almost never ending. However, we would like to offer to our readers a few ideas or thoughts that we have gathered over the years from a number of sources, for your consideration:

“The Crystal Skulls function like our modern-day computers and were used in this capacity by various (advanced) civilizations in our past. They contain hidden knowledge and information that when it is time for this to be revealed, will ultimately assist humanity to create a Golden Age of peace and harmony upon our world!”

“They were a powerful tool for healing [Body Mind and Spirit] within such cultures as the Mayans, the or even the Atlanteans”

“Relative to today: We have witnessed many people’s lives being profoundly affected after having had an opportunity to spend time in the presence of a very old crystal skull. And even now, this type of phenomena is beginning to happen around the ‘Contemporary Crystal Skulls’ as well. Could the crystal skulls then be a type of mini energy vortex or better yet, a catalyst that is helping people to awaken to their true spiritual nature?”

In truth, the best way to truly understand what the crystal skulls are about and to appreciate them is to have your own personal experience with one. So if you have a chance to meet a crystal skull along your path, may we encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity and see what will happen to you? Feel free to contact us, as we would love to hear from you about your crystal skull encounters.

5 We hope this short article was helpful to introduce to you the crystal skulls. This has been one of the most fascinating subjects for us to be personally involved with as the skulls have and are continuing to take us on a grand adventure all over the world. We just never know what will happen to us next or where will be our next destination(s). Kind of exciting, don’t you think?

In the next section of our e-book, we offer a short biography about ourselves and present a few members of our collective crystal skull family.

7 Blue Arrow Rainbow

Blue Arrow Rainbow (formerly known as DesyRainbow) is a channel for a diverse range of Universal Healing Light energies. Working with these energies they will activate one’s own inner healing abilities and helps you to become whole again. Through special healing courses studied, Blue Arrow Rainbow was able to remember her individual healing gifts, she developed during other lifetimes. Also, she is an artist who creates special paintings that reflect the essence of a person that are directly inspired by the energy contained in a person’s photograph.

She is a guardian of over 40 contemporary crystal heads that she shares with others during her public work. “Mozes of Peace”, is a 3 lb. small clear quartz crystal head made in Here I am with the first ancient Brazil is her special healing friend. Blue crystal head (“Ami”) that I was able Arrow Rainbow has brought together several to hear loud and clearly say: circles of “12+1” crystal heads to work with in ”finally we will work the future. together again!” Blue Arrow Rainbow saw her first Crystal Head at the Wolf-Song IX gathering held in Holland in August 1998. In June 2001, she began to devote her life to working with the Crystal Heads as from this moment she began to work together with Joshua to offer public events and consultations in and North America. During these travels, she has had an opportunity to meet several ancient and old crystal heads in the world.

Blue Arrow Rainbow has been intricately involved and inspirational in the writing of the joint book with Joshua entitled, “Journeys of the Crystal Skull Explorers”. She wrote the translation for the Dutch edition of this book entitled “Kristallen Schedels” published by Akasha Publishing in the Netherlands (2006). She also has supported the crystal skull research conducted by the “World Mystery Research Center” located in the United States. At this moment in time, Blue Arrow Rainbow is creating her own book, which will contain special artwork she has painted over the last 8 years. Additionally she has created three circles comprised of 12+1 crystal heads of which one circle contains only rose quartz heads. Lastly, she is the proud mother of two wonderful children. Her daughter Marcella Blue-Eagle Wolf is also a Crystal Head guardian and takes care of a circle of over 40 crystal heads along with their joint crystalline family members with Blue Arrow Rainbow.

8 R. “Joshua” Shapiro Joshua has been involved with the crystal skulls since 1983 when he saw one made out of amethyst in northern California (“Ami”). He felt such a strong connection with this artifact that since that time he has devoted his life and resources to sharing the best information he can about these crystalline artifacts with other people all over the world and the future role they will play to help our planet.

He has had an opportunity to privately visit with a number of the well known crystal skulls in the world including: the "Mitchell- Hedges Crystal Skull of Love", "ET", the “British Museum Crystal Skull”, “Synergy” and “Ami”.

Since Blue Arrow Rainbow has entered in his life in 2001, they have been working closely together. The Explorers offer various crystal skull presentations (lectures and workshops) to the public as well as a unique type of private consultation with their personal skulls that combines their individual spiritual and creative talents. In the picture shown here, we see Joshua holding the Brazilian carved crystal skull known as “Portal de Luz” (Portuguese for “Portal of Light”), who has traveled with him all over the world.

Joshua is the author of various books including his first book about the crystal skulls entitled “Mysteries of the Crystal Skulls Revealed”, written jointly with Sandra Bowen and the late, F. R. ‘Nick’ Nocerino. This book was published in 1989 and there is also a Portuguese edition issued in Brazil in 1993.

Joshua is the co-founder of V J Enterprises, located in the Chicago area that has been in operation since 1992, dedicated to sharing the best information that describes how our planet will be transformed into a “Golden Age” by the year 2013. Additionally, Joshua has offered a number of other public talks throughout the world that discuss current information about UFOs, the Bible Code and the Hollow Earth. He is actively involved with the non-profit organization: the World Mystery Research Center. This foundation is dedicated to studying various world mysteries which are believed to inherently contain vital encoded information necessary to create a peaceful world. He has helped to organize a number of Crystal Skull Festivals in Europe and is the originator of a story for an action adventure film that portrays how world peace will happen by the end of 2012. 9

(Pictures of a few of our crystal friends and a brief description to acquaint you with their relative size and what could be the service offered by each of the crystal heads shown here ……. )

Note: the reader of this e-book may experience the energy of these crystal friends in a totally different way then how we understand them, but this is perfectly alright if this does happen to you!!

10 PPoorrttaall ddee LLuuzz

“Portal de Luz” (Portal of Light) weights 10 lbs (4.5 kg) and is the largest crystal head in our family. “He” is made of light grey smoky quartz crystal which was mined and carved in Brazil. His first initiation occurred at a Mayan Sun Rise ceremony conducted in Sedona, Arizona in 1999.

Since the summer of 1999, “Portal” has worked closely with Joshua participating in his lectures and private consultations. When an individual chooses “Portal” for their consultation (or healing session) this represents a person who is seeking more balance in their life or wishes to have a greater clarity about their life’s purpose. When “Portal” interacts with others, “he” will often change his weight and color. “He” loves to participate in our crystal skull research, and to work with the Natural Energies of “Mother Earth”. “He” is our musical skull who is often seen dancing with his “papa” (Joshua) during our public presentations.

11 UUnniittyy

“Unity” is a small 1 lb. (.45 kg) rose quartz crystal head. The quartz comprising this head was also mined in Brazil. This was Blue Arrow Rainbow’s first personal crystal head that she had an opportunity to meditate and work with. “Unity” was initiated on a warm sunny day as Blue Arrow Rainbow sang to her. Afterwards, this lovely small head spoke to her and said: “Only the wife of Joshua is able to open me up for my spiritual work”. “Unity” has helped Blue Arrow Rainbow in uncountable ways especially to heal the tears and pain in her heart. One of the abilities this crystal head has is teaching a person how to Love themselves first unconditionally, and then how to Love others.

12 MMoozzeess ooff PPeeaaccee

“Mozes of Peace” (Note: His original name in Dutch is: “Mozes van Vrede”) is a clear quartz crystal head that weighs 3 lbs (1.36 kg). “He” is one of the main crystal heads that Blue Arrow Rainbow works with as a channel for healing. The quartz itself was again mined and carved in the same part of Brazil as the two previous crystal heads. “Mozes” first came to Blue Arrow Rainbow in September of 2001. Prior to “his” arrival, the image of his face energetically appeared to Blue Arrow Rainbow in her mind’s eyes, even before the quartz was physically carved into its present shape, as seen above.

As soon as Blue Arrow Rainbow unwrapped the crystal head from the delivery box; “he” spoke to her and said:” I Am Mozes, Mozes of Peace and I will help you to get millions over the border.” By this, she understood “Mozes” to mean that he would help many people who would have contact with “him” in the future to be able to open up their Hearts to become more peaceful and spiritual.” “Mozes” is definitely our ‘healing head’ but this is just one of his many beautiful abilities he has. Just like his brother “Portal”, “he” is able to change his weight and color when he becomes activated and emits a very high frequency of energy. “Mozes” loves the healing courses that Blue Arrow Rainbow takes; the country of Peru; stormy and snowy weather plus “he” is very fond of bathing in lukewarm water.

13 XXiiaann –– AAddoonnaaii

“Xian Adonai” is a small dark smoky quartz crystal head and “she” weights less than a pound. “Xian” told Blue Arrow Rainbow that “she” has the ability to re-connect a person in many different ways. For example, “Xian” can help a person make a reconnection with a specific past lifetime gift or special ability that this individual used at that time. This crystal head also will help a person who is about to transit from this plane of existence into the next, to do so in a peaceful way. “She” also has a strong link to ancient Egypt.

“Xian” asked to be initiated during our wedding ceremony, held on December 21st 2002 in Chicago (ten years before the “Year Zero” according to the Mayan Calendar). One of the roles she played during this ceremony was to help us connect to a former lifetime from the 19th century and restored those energies (as we actually dressed up in the same type of clothes as we had in this former time), where we were in love but due to certain circumstances, were unable to stay together. “Xian Adonai” was able to assist us to complete this cycle and close the energy of this former time, so we were free to be together as husband and wife in this lifetime and move forward. When you strike the top “Xian`s” head, it can become as soft as if one touches a head of a new born baby. One is even able to feel a certain heartbeat knocking as if she has a fontanel soft spot there, like the newly born babies actually have.

14 KKoossmmoozz

“Kosmoz” is a crystal head made from Moon quartz mined in Brazil. “Kosmoz” is one of the smaller crystal heads in our crystalline family and weighs 150 grams. Since “Kosmoz” can fit into one’s pocket, Blue Arrow Rainbow has carried “him/her” everywhere (“Kosmoz” is more of an androgynous head). “He/She” really likes to experience everything!!! Whenever Blue Arrow Rainbow goes out, this head almost “demands” to tag along with her, even to the cinema or watching the fireworks on “Independence Day” in America. “Kosmoz” also loves flowers!

“He/She” is a very cheerful member of our crystal circle. “Kosmoz” will put a smile on your face and make you giggle or laugh as “he/she” works with the ‘Inner Child’ of a person. One of “his/her” jobs is to let individuals know they can use some more laughter and fun in their lives – this is one way to really LIVE ones life to the fullest.

15 CChhiinnZZoonn SShhiinnee

“ChinZon Shine” arrived in March 2003. “He” is a clear quartz crystal head with a “Galactic or Cosmic” appearance and weights less than one lb. Blue Arrow Rainbow saw him for sale on the internet (E-bay) and while she was gazing at “his” image on-line; “he” spoke to her and asked: “May I work in your crystal circle?” This crystal head really likes to watch (sci-fi) movies and was jumping up and down in Blue Arrow Rainbow’s hand during the film, ‘Star Trek Nemesis’ when the name “ChinZon” came upon screen (the name of the new Romulean leader). So, Blue Arrow Rainbow had no choice but to call him “ChinZon”. Then the last part of his name, “Shine” comes from the word sunshine, because “Zon” in Dutch means sun and “he” loves sunshine.

One of the abilities of “ChinZon Shine” is working to activate the 12 DNA strands in the human body. We have noticed that many young people (ages 10-20) are especially drawn to hold this particular crystal skull. Also his outer physical form seems to fascinate people. All we know is that there is an Asian carver who is making these types of crystal heads.

16

IInnffiinniittyy

Infinity is a 1 lb (.45 kg) rose quartz crystal head that comes from the same Brazilian mine and carver as “Portal”, “Unity”, “Mozes” and “Xian”. “Her” first initiation occurred in Holland in the summer of 2003 during Blue Arrow Rainbow’s first public crystal head talk. During this talk, she discussed some of her adventures with various crystal heads that she has encountered outside of our circle during our travels. So, “Infinity” insisted that “she” must be present at this presentation and that was that.

“Infinity” has an ability to assist other individuals to open up their throat (or 5th) chakra in order to enhance one’s capability to better communicate with others or more easily speak to groups of people in public. In addition, this crystal head facilitates a stronger connection between the heart and throat chakras which will allow an individual to more easily express their emotions and what they truly feel in their heart. She is what we call a “Traveler Head” which means that “Infinity” is traveling throughout the galaxy (etherically or spiritually) to assist other beings.

17 EEll –– II

“EL – I” was a gift to us from Susan Isabelle, who is the caretaker of two small heads which are believed to be very old crystal heads known as “El-Aleator” and “El Zara”. Susan initiated “El – I” by placing her next to her own crystal head, “El-Aleator”. “El-Aleator” was a gift to Susan by a Mayan Shaman in Belize with “EL Zara” coming to Susan at a later time. The purpose of El - I has not been revealed to us yet, but “he” is another head in our circle that has a strong link with the more indigenous and galactic ways to work with a crystal head. What do you feel?

(Note: At the time of the publication of this e-book, El-I is far more clear then when we originated received this head and in the back is a beautiful new Rainbow that just appeared over time.)

18 SSttaarrggaattee

Stargate is a 3 lbs. smoky quartz crystal head, who possess a firm kind of energy. He requested to sit with "Portal de Luz" for 10 days as he said to Blue Arrow Rainbow: "In the future when ‘Portal’ is not around, I will carry on forward with some of the energies he works with, which you would call the energies for publicity for newspapers, the radio and TV." Originally Stargate was meant to be given to another person, but "he" strongly requested that "he" preferred to stay in the Netherlands and work within our circle of crystal heads. One of the abilities that Stargate seems to have is "he" is like a scout, "he" knows what direction a person must go in order to find the answer to the question that this person is seeking and is asking of "Stargate".

19 BByyoouuxx

“Byoux” is a beautiful 1 lb., very clear quartz crystal head, from the circle of Marcella Blue-Eagle Wolf, who is Blue Arrow Rainbow’s daughter and personal helper and assistant. “Byoux” is created in a very different shape for a Crystal Head as compared to a human bone skull. The carver has shaped “her” after the main character in the `Alien` film series. Although “she” might seem to look quite feisty, she has a VERY soft and super gentle nature. One of “her” special tasks is to connect a person with the realm of all of the animals on this planet and in the Universe.

Also “Byoux” always says to the people “she” meets: “Don’t forget the Beauty” which means that one should never forget the small things in life which are there to be seen as they can make your life’s path a beautiful walk. Although “her” eyes are not fully carved, “Byoux” possesses a very nice egg shaped eyes which work more in etheric and energetic way. Can you see this too from “her” photo? We discovered that “Byoux” talks in her own specific language, which IS totally different than we are used to as humans.

(Unusual pictures derived from of our crystal skulls using a digital process.

See what images you can observe within the pictures in this section. )

21

Golden Dragonfly Grandfather

Images to Look For: Do you see at the bottom of this picture what appears to be two African or Australian-looking men with yellow paint around their eyes? Do you see an Angel at the top of this image and slightly below this is a dark man with a beard?

22

Golden Dragonfly Grandfather

Images to Look For: Can you see a Mayan girl at the very top of this image? If you squeeze or squint your eyes a bit, you will be able to see her more clearly! There are a lot more pictures and images inside of the crystal head that you can view in this image also. Can you find them?

23

Mozes of Peace

Images to Look For: In this picture you might be able to see a crystal head near the bottom and then we see two Angels near the middle at the very center. The small picture to your left is the same image as above but greatly reduced. We noticed when we view this image at this size that there is the face of a man. Could this be the biblical Moses of whom this crystal head is named after?

24

Mozes of Peace

Images to Look For: In this picture, it’s pretty obvious there is a spaceship near the bottom with a girl who is directly underneath it (you see this yes?). But do you also see a dark man with a helmet on, in the top part of this image and the Angels and horses in the very center? The Angels have wings!

25

ChinZon Shine

Images to Look For: Do you see towards the top of the picture a big bird? Additionally there are a few faces towards the very center and a circus tent. Finally do you see a big animal’s (like a beaver?) head at the very bottom of this image?

26

ChinZon Shine

Images to Look For: At first this image might look a bit blurry but if you look closely you can still detect many different kinds of faces all over this picture. If you move back a distance from your screen and look again, you might see the face of a man throughout the entire picture.

Portal de Luz

Images to Look For: The Alien eyes seen from the perspective of looking at the entire picture is obvious but can you find several faces that appear in the crystal heads’ eyes and other faces that are between the eyes?

28

Portal de Luz (zoomed view)

Specific Image to See: The Spaniard with his helmet on is very easy to be seen (appears in the teeth of “Portal”). Where could this image have come from?

Xian Adonai (zoomed view)

Specific Image to See: In Xian`s picture we find what looks like a Jewish man who is wearing his “Yamulke” (the Jewish skull cap religious Jews wear). Again this image shows up in the teeth of the skull.

Specific Images to See: Can you observe the little Cherub Angel, with her cute wings, in the middle of this image? Also can you see, a little bit towards the bottom there seems to be a type of spaceship? Then at the top of this image, can you find a man with a high hat? We believe that you will find many other interesting and beautiful objects here, if you just take a good look.

You might be wondering, “What is the source of these images that you have been seeing upon the last few pages of this e-book?” Each one was created from a digital photograph taken from one of our personal crystal skulls. Then we used a computer graphics program to perform a special series of processes upon it that produced the final result you see. We have read that the Mayans used a similar technique to study hidden messages related to some of their special symbols involving reverse images.

In our comprehensive book (Journeys of the Crystal Skull Explorers), we will take a much closer look at the details about this interesting imaging technique as we applied it to various pictures of some of the ancient crystal skulls which are featured there. As you may have noticed under each image, we provided for you some suggestions about what type of pictures or distinct images you might observe. Don’t worry if you are not able to see these images right away, it just takes some practice.

We would recommend however, that when you do have the proper time to really sit and gaze at these special pictures, that you will most likely see a great deal of other recognizable images (such as people, places, animals or certain activities, etc ...). If you stand farther away from your computer monitor, you may be able to observe other scenes or discernable objects that you couldn’t see close up. Another technique you can use is to adjust the magnification size for viewing the page within Adobe Reader® or Acrobat®, and by reducing or enlarging the image on your screen; you will see many other hidden pictures as well.

When we have shared these special images in our public lectures we always get “ooh-s” and “aah-s” from our audience. We decided to include this section in our free e-book because it is one of the most fun things we have uncovered to do with pictures of the crystal skulls. So sit back and enjoy!

31 A Suggestion for Working with the Pictures in the Book

We would like to offer to you a simple technique for working with the pictures in this book that various people in the crystal skull community use and are having good success with. This technique can be done with either a normal picture of a skull (such as one from our crystal family) or you can experiment with the special images from the last section.

First, just casually glance through this book and observe if any specific picture or image speaks to you; or if you find yourself strongly drawn to look at one in particular. Don’t try to rationalize why you feel this strong connection to the picture (or that specific crystal skull), just trust that there is a reason for this. Then print out this picture on your printer and take a personal quartz crystal (or crystal skull) and place it on top of this picture for 48 hours. If you don’t have a personal crystal to use, see if you can find one at a local or gem shop (but again don’t just pick any quartz crystal, take one that calls out to you and feels correct!).

The purpose of this exercise is to transfer a part of the energy that is linked to the particular crystal skull you have chosen into your personal crystal. It has been observed on numerous occasions that when a person links into any facsimile of a crystal skull (such as a photograph) they can experience to some degree, the essence of that object’s energy. We have personally worked with this system and done so with a number of friends and clients, and have been pleasantly surprised by the results that have happened.

Once your crystal (or crystal skull) has been charged, begin to work with it in some fashion. For example you can hold it during your personal meditations, sleep with the crystal under your pillow or just have it in your pocket when you go out of your home. It can be used as a healing stone or just to hold it when you are feeling low in your physical energy. You can even work with this crystal to protect yourself with a positive and strong energy field around you or to amplify and increase your vitality.

( A weekly World Peace Meditation working in alignment with the energy of the Crystal Skulls -- held each Sunday at various times … a description from Joshua. )

Today we live in very challenging times. Many people are concerned about our future and if humanity will ever be able to live together in peace and harmony. In our studies we have uncovered a number of different prophecies originating from various indigenous cultures in the world. The common theme contained within these various prophecies deals with specific warnings about potential disasters humanity could face in the future if we do not change our way of life. The best solution to prevent such a future, we believe is, for the people of our world to have a much greater awareness and become more responsible for the well-being of our planet (“The Mother Earth”). And also, to respect all life that lives upon ‘Her’. If we not do so in a timely fashion, according to these prophecies, this could result in severe and dire consequences that could end life as we know it. Now, it is not our intention by making such statements to create more panic and fear in our world, as we already have enough of this. However, at the same time, the prophecies act as a reminder that we live in a time where some very important decisions must be made for taking the proper actions which will transform our world in a positive way until we really can create a global peace. So the main question that we can each ask ourselves is: “Can we do something that will make a difference and truly prevent or diminish these dark forecasts from ever coming true? “ We believe that the answer to this question is absolutely “YES”!

Therefore, we invite you to participate with us in a special meditation (which was inspired by spirit) that can help us in creating a better world. We have been performing this mediation since the beginning of 2003 when it was initiated through our main crystal skull website. This meditation is a little bit different from similar ones in that we work directly with the energy of the crystal skulls. Of course, we recognize that any meditation which focuses upon sending of a good and loving energy to our planet and its inhabitants is worthwhile as each meditation that is performed it works synergistically with all the other groups who are offering a similar activity.

Over the years, we have had people join us for this mediation who are living all over the world. Most of these individuals have a strong interest in the crystal skulls but that is not a prerequisite to be able to participate with us. We have developed, what we believe is a simple method that allows anyone to be able to link into the energy and essence of the crystal skulls which we are using as our main focus. The crystal skulls definitely help us in amplifying the peaceful energies that we are sending out to the world during this exercise. In order to allow as many people as possible who wish to participate with us, we have setup the meditation to occur at three different time slots. Thus, no matter what time zone a person lives in, they can participate at a reasonable time. If you would like to join us for this meditation, you will find the instructions to do so

33 in the following sections. Even if you do not have your own crystal skull, you can still join us and are very welcome to do so.

Time for the Meditation

We recommend that you perform your meditation to last for about 10 or 15 minutes (or you can just allow the energy of the meditation to guide you for its duration). The three specific time periods we are conducting our meditation are shown below. Please check to determine which one is the best for you. The Local Time that is given is based on the perspective of a person living within the U.S. (EST- New York City); England (GMT) or the Time Zone in Sydney, Australia.

Meditation Time #1: 8 AM (EST); 1 PM (England); 10 PM (Sydney)

Meditation Time #2: 12:00 Noon (EST); 5 PM (England); 2 AM (Sydney, on Monday)

Meditation Time #3: 6 PM (EST); 11 PM (England); 8 AM (Sydney, on Monday)

Suggestion:

If for some reason, you are not able to join us on a specific Sunday during any of the times listed above; there is a special technique known as "Programming your Meditation Ahead" that could be implemented instead. How this technique works is that you go ahead and perform your meditation at a more convenient time during the current week, but that you setup in your mind the intention that the energy you will generate from your session will move forward in time so that it will coincide and link with the rest of us at the specified time period you chose from above. Thus by using this system, you will still be able to join us on the next Sunday and never miss a beat!

An Overview for the Meditation

Philosophy behind the Meditation:

On the very first day I had received the crystal skull known as "Portal de Luz" in 1999, "he" showed me an image in my mind about how all of the crystal skulls that exist upon our planet are interconnected through some type of etheric energy network. 34

“He” told me that within each piece of quartz, there exists the potential of an inter- dimensional doorway that can open up or become activated when this specific piece of quartz (or crystal skull) is awakened. Once the crystal is activated, it can begin to receive and project out various fields of energies and information that can originate from any crystal skull that is linked to this network. This is very similar to how the internet works, as all of the computers on the net are inter-connected and can send and receive information from each other.

Furthermore during the experiments we have conducted on behalf of our Research Center (see the full details of our tests in our new book to be released), we have received information that there might exist a very large clear crystal skull in rotation at the center of the earth (i.e. – this implies that our planet does not have a molten core at the center but could be completely hollow) which is the master skull to coordinate the flow of energy and information through this entire network. Since we believe that each crystal skull is unique until itself and specializes in certain specific frequencies of energies that ’he’/’she’ contains (i.e. -- for healing, awakening consciousness, activating one's spiritual gifts, a vessel of universal wisdom, etc ..), this large master skull can and will select the appropriate energies to emit through each individual skull depending upon the unique situation at the time. We believe that the determination of what energies this central skull will send through to the other ones is related to each skull’s current location and how that particular crystal skull is being utilized by its owner (or caretaker) at that precise moment (such as in our meditation).

Thus, if our understanding is correct about how this mediation is truly functioning, then each crystal skull that participates in this activity will emanate a powerful and peaceful energy through it. This energy comes from the crystal skull’s connection to the etheric energy network and is then sent out to the local geographic region which the meditator resides. The key for this process to work well is that a human being is required to activate and open the dimensional door within their respective skull (or crystal) in order for the higher spiritual energies from the network to be broadcast out through the skull.

Additionally we have experienced during the meditations that each participant will receive and channel a portion of this special energy through their own body which can be very uplifting, healing and electrifying. Therefore, one of the main goals we have for this meditation is that by working with a large number of people from all over the world, we are able to create many points of light which are all connected together at the same time. Can you visualize what we are describing here and see its potential?

How to Perform the Meditation

The second part of the vision that I had received from "Portal" was related to the crystal skull etheric network itself. I was shown a method of how a person could fully link into this network that involved a special device that looked like an antenna. Each participant has the ability to inwardly call for this antenna to appear in their location which is created by a special mental visualization. For example, for some people this antenna could just literally appear in front of you when they call it. This purpose of this antenna is to help a participant to more fully connect with the energy of the etheric crystal skull network and to bring a part of this energy into their individual meditation space.

If you will look at the diagram to your left, you will see I have provided a simple representation of what this antenna can look like which you can use as a reference point. One of the keys to the success of our medi- tation is to energetically connect with this antenna, so please just do your best to visualize it. The antenna itself is actually more spherical and round then the flat representation we have given here.

Instruction for the Meditation: To begin your meditation, first decide which room in your home you would like to conduct your session in. Then find a comfortable place to sit or lie down. Shortly, I will discuss how to hold or position the crystal or crystal skull you will use in the meditation.

Now visualize in your mind the etheric energy antenna and position it at the very center of your room. Again the reason for visualizing this (imaginary or invisible) antenna is so you are able to link into the crystal skull etheric network and then receive the special vibrational frequencies that emanate directly from the network. As you begin to move into your mediation, see an energy beam that shoots out from the top and bottom of the antenna and extends upward and downward to infinity. Also make sure that you see a somewhat smaller antenna that extends outward from the main one at the exact place where the main antenna meets the floor in your room (as 36 shown in the diagram above). This small segment or addition stands upward at a 45% degree angle.

For those participants who have their own crystal skull to work with during the meditation, here is our suggestion how to proceed: (Note: if you do not have a crystal skull, please view the next section for some alternative ways you may still be able to participate with us). Hold your crystal skull in your hands in any fashion that is comfortable for you in the moment. It is not important which direction the front part of the skull faces, only that the position of your hands feels correct. (Please note: each time you perform this meditation, the positioning of the skull can and will change over time.) For example, if you are in a sitting position, the crystal skull might rest comfortably on your lap or if you are in a lying down position, then the skull could be placed by your side or on top of a part of your body.

Further, we have found that it can be quite helpful if you are able to listen to a beautiful and/or peaceful music in the background during the meditation. The use of headphones can be handy as it will prevent outside noises from distracting you. We have discovered that when a participant adds music to this meditation, this can greatly amplify the energy present and the intensity of their experiences during their session. Now take a minute or two (possibly even before your meditation starts) to do a relaxation or breathing exercise to help calm yourself down and release any anxiety or tension from your day.

At this point, you are now ready to enter into the active part of the meditation. To begin with, first visualize a beam of light (in whatever color comes to you) emanating from the main antenna and touching your crystal skull in its third eye. Feel the energy begin to build up and expand within your crystal skull. Eventually the skull will emit a loving and peaceful energy within the room or space you are situated which will begin to travel and move inside of yourself until it flows throughout all parts of your body. Usually we find that if we visualize the energy coming from the antenna to be pink in color, this is quiet helpful and the most powerful (the color of pink represents the vibration of unconditional love).

Next, after a period of time (you will know of feel when this is), this powerful and harmonious energy that the skull has given to you will start to expand and move outside of your physical body. So, see or feel this loving energy fill the entire room you are situated in. Then after a minute of two, the energy will continue to expand and cover your entire home. Next, this loving and peaceful energy (which will be a specific color) will continue to expand and is now it is filling every part of the city you live in. Once again after another minute or so, watch as this loving energy continues expanding and is now covering your entire provincial area (i.e. -- your state, province or district). Eventually, visualize and observe this loving energy completely covering the country that you reside in. And lastly, watch this special healing energy cover our entire planet, touching all the living beings that inhabit our beautiful “Mother” (the plants, the animals, and the people). As you are going through this process, don’t feel rushed, take your time and move from place to place as it is comfortable to do so.

We suggest at this point during your meditation, that for just a few minutes you might want to remain with the vision of the Earth surrounded by this loving (pink) energy. 37 Then, just before you are ready to return to your physical body, pick one location on our world that you feel drawn to, where there is a great deal of unrest or confusion and send to this location a little extra light and loving energy. One quick note to offer and this is, when we are visualizing this peaceful loving energy being shared with our world, all we can do is offer this energy to all the living beings to choose how (they/he/she) and each must decide of their own accord in which way to utilize it. Now, after you are finished, begin to return to your physical body by retracing your steps back the way you came (from the view of the Earth, to your country, to your provincial area, etc ....). When you come back to your body, you may wish to take a few deep breaths to help ground yourself as well as feel your feet firmly touching the ground before you open your eyes. And then just take a few minutes to enjoy the special experiences that you just had.

Suggestion: If you happen to have more then one crystal skull, why not invite a friend, family member or neighbor to join us during our time together one Sunday?

What to do if you don’t have your own crystal skulls?

If this is your situation, you can still participate and meditate with us working with the energies of the crystal skulls. Here are a few suggestions about how you can do this:

1) If you have a picture of a crystal skull that you personally feel an affinity for (such as one shown in this e-book), you can stare at its image during your meditation to bring in the energy of the skulls into your room. Then visualize the special antenna that links to the energy network and imagine that you are holding in your hands the crystal skull you are gazing at. The rest of the mediation follows as we have described in earlier sections.

2) Alternatively, you can work with the piece of quartz that you have charged and activated with a picture of a crystal skull, (as we discussed earlier) and then hold it (as it takes the skull’s place of course) and do the meditation. Again you can pretend as if the crystal you are holding is a real crystal skull.

If you prefer to work with a picture of an older or ancient crystal skull, we have setup on our crystal skull website a page consisting of such pictures. Some of the people who have joined our meditation and first heard about it through our website, actually use these pictures. There are twelve different crystal skulls (ancient, old and contemporary) shown here and again, you can just print out this page on your printer and select the crystal skull that seems appropriate to work with for the meditation. Please see:

http://www.v-j-enterprises.com/skullpictures.html

38 3) Another option is to take one of your personal crystals that you have at home and try to see if you can find an actual crystal skull that someone has who lives close to your location. Then, just place your quartz crystal near their skull for a period of time (15 minutes at least is recommended) and let it be charged.

4) Finally, I have met some people who don’t need a physical crystal skull or quartz skull present but still have the ability to visualize one in their mind instantaneously or even at times, see a crystal skull that just appears right in front of them through their inner gift of clairvoyance. So this is just another option or method a person can use to participate in our group meditation.

Other Suggestions and Final Ideas …

We have found that the most important ingredient for having a powerful experience during this meditation is to not plan ahead or logically figure out what will happen during your session. Most people have discovered that as soon as they start to work with their crystal skull (or the energy connected to them); things have a habit of happening by themselves. We find this spontaneous approach is the best way to conduct your meditation and to fulfill the collective goal for sending out the most loving and peaceful energy to our world as we can, amplified by the energy of the skulls.

In reports we have received from various participants, some people have found the energy connected to this meditation to be quite powerful or conversely felt very relaxed when they finished. For others, they have received some type of healing or it has given to them a greater clarity about their lives. Some people tell us that they have had seen some interesting visions during their meditation. A number of individuals have reported that they feel a new energy inside of their crystal skull after the meditation is concluded. Either their skull or skulls seem more activated and/or that inside the quartz itself, the crystal has changed its form or become more transparent.

Of course, it is not a requirement that you must join us each and every Sunday. Feel free to participate as you are guided or inspired to do so. We also believe that part of the reason for performing this group meditation is not only will it help to more fully activate the energies contained within our personal crystal skulls but, that on some level it is setting up or enhancing the vibrational frequency within our planet to prepare for the arrival of other ancient crystal skulls that are currently being hidden for their protection. Thus if any of our readers do have a special contact or relationship with a caretaker of such a crystal skull who is unfamiliar with our meditation, please feel free to invite them to join us.

We truly believe that this group meditation can make a big difference in our world and is helping to link together the energy of the crystal skulls with the individuals who are 39 actively involved with them. So if you are able to participate and join us that would be simply wonderful.

Please feel free to contact us at any time if we can answer any questions about this meditation of if you might have some new ideas about how we could expand or improve it – Thank You and God Bless!!

A Special Idea – A Dream – A Possible Future Event -- what if we tried to create a certain day in which we invite every person in the world who is a caretaker/guardian of one or more crystal skulls, to join us for a meditation for peace where each hour on that day, a group of people are perform this meditation throughout the world. What could happen? As now, there are thousands upon thousands of new crystal skulls being carved – and now there are thousands upon thousands of people who have a crystal skull. If we decided to organize such a day, would you participate? Email us and let us know what you think, ok? But again, this is just an idea – just a dream – or is it?

(OK, finally coming up next is a quick overview of our new book on the crystal skulls, that you have been hearing so much about which will definitely definitely be released sometime in 2008. We are very proud of this book and we have tried to write it in such a way that it will provide the best information possible for every reader, regardless of their orientation. This book will include some of the most amazing and interesting stories and personal experiences people have had with the crystal skulls, perhaps even beyond what you can imagine. And of course, the book offers some provocative new insights about life and reality which these crystal friends wish to teach us or to remind us of that which we already know deep inside ourselves!!)

Crystal Skulls are human-shaped skulls comprised of various types of quartz crystals. A number of these ancient artifacts have been uncovered within various ancient ruins in Mexico and Central America. Who created these crystal skulls? Why did they make them? By which process were they fashioned, is a complete mystery. The follwing questions will be answered within this amazing book.

* Why are the crystal skulls resurfacing now? * What research has been conducted to better understand the crystal skulls? * Why are so many people desiring to have a personal contact with one? * What is there about the energy that surrounds the crystal skulls that is producing tremendous and profound changes within the lives of the people who meet them?

Join Joshua and Blue Arrow Rainbow, the Crystal Skull Explorers, as they take you deep into the secret world of the Crystal Skulls. Inside the pages of this book you will meet some of the most famous crystal skulls on the planet as well as the special individuals who are intimately involved with them. Find out why the authors believe the Crystal Skulls are one of the most important ancient artifacts that has ever been discovered and how these crystalline friends will ultimately take humanity into a time of “Total Peace.”

The Crystal Skull Explorers have dedicated their lives to the study of the Crystal Skulls as well as providing the very best information upon this subject through their public presentations, websites and books. Their crystal skull research is sponsored by the WORLD MYSTERY RESEARCH CENTER in the U.S. Joshua and Blue Arrow Rainbow are involved with a feature film that will present a powerful story regarding how the Crystal Skulls will play a key role in bringing fourth a time of total Peace for the Earth in our near future, known as “The New Dawn”.

Foreword

Book Objectives and Overview

Introduction

CHAPTER 1 – TIME FLIGHT OF DESTINY ( The book begins with a story – it starts during the time of the Mayans in Mexico in the 16th century as the Spanish Conquistador are beginning their invasion and looking for a “Talking Skull”. The story moves to our modern time where we see a crystal skull has recently been unearthed in a Mayan ruin after being hidden for almost five hundred years. The skull calls to a young man, whose soul was the one to hide it in this distant past. The skull has arrived just in time as our world is threatened by a deadly disease that only the crystal skulls can help to cure …)

43 Chapter 2 – What are the Crystal Skulls? ( In this chapter we take a quick look at the material of which comprises the crystal skulls -- quartz crystals and discuss their properties. We define the three different types of crystal skulls known to exist in our world {ancient, old and contemporary}. And finally we offer a brief history of some of the key moments that have occurred around the crystal skulls from the 18th century till present to bring them into the public’s attention. )

Chapter 3 – The Ancient and Old Crystal Skulls ( Chapter 3 introduces our readers to a few of the ancient and old crystal skulls that are known in the world presently. We provide a physical description and history, and offer comments from the guardians or owners where possible. The main crystal skulls that we discuss include (the type of quartz is in parenthesis):

ANCIENT: MITCHELL-HEDGES SKULL OF LOVE (CLEAR), “AMI” (AMETHYST), “ET” (SMOKY QUARTZ), “MADRE” & “RAINBOW” (CLEAR), “SYNERGY” (CLEAR) OLD: BRITISH MUSEUM CRYSTAL SKULL (CLEAR) AND THE PARIS CRYSTAL SKULL (CLEAR)

We also briefly discuss several other crystal skulls that are known publicly following into these categories, but there is not enough space in the book to give a full description.}

Chapter 4 – Contemporary Crystal Skulls, The Caretakers ( Next we take a look at the newly made crystal skulls also known as contemporary crystal skulls. Here we hear from seven owners {or as we call them caretakers} of such skulls to compare their stories and experiences versus the older ones. You will meet Marion Webb-De Soto from England, who has written the first book that focuses upon this type of crystal skulls. Additionally we hear from Jaap van Etten and C. Ravenia Youngman, who each have more than 100 crystal skulls in their personal collections. Two other good friends we introduce, who are working in the world closely with their crystal skulls including Wendy Willett and ShavatY. Next you hear from Blue Arrow Rainbow as she discusses her personal crystal skull, known as “Mozes of Peace” and Joshua introduces his 10 lb. smoky quartz skull, “Portal de Luz”. The last section is an honorable mention of other friends who are very active and work with their crystal skulls to share them with the public.)

Chapter 5 – Contemporary Crystal Skulls, The Carvers ( This chapter introduces our readers to three very special and talented carvers who have the rare gift to create a crystal skull. We hear from Carey Robbins in Oregon who has carved several human-sized skulls including a movable jaw. You will meet one of the special carvers that work in Brazil who has personally made over 1000 crystal skulls 44 of all sizes. Next, you meet Georg Brandt, a master carver from Idar-Oberstein in Germany, a place where some of the finest gemstone carvers in the world live. Lastly, we introduce you to “Moonhawk” (Gary Butler), who has been trained in the traditional ways to carve a skull that provides us a completely different orientation about what the crystal skulls represent to the indigenous people and their keys to activating them. )

Chapter 6 -- Our Personal Adventures with the Crystal Skulls (with Joshua and Blue Arrow Rainbow) ( Chapter 6 is our opportunity to share with the readers our most treasured stories and experiences with the crystal skulls. Joshua focuses about his experiences with the Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull of Love; “Ami”, the amethyst skull, “ET” {a human-sized smoky quartz skull} along with various visits with the British Museum Crystal Skull {including a very rare and private one with Blue Arrow Rainbow}. In addition, he speaks about the three journeys he has taken to Peru searching for a Blue Crystal Skull inspired by an inner vision in 1990. This chapter finishes with Blue Arrow Rainbow’s experiences at the Wolf Song Gathering in Holland in 1998, and her initial experiences with “Portal de Luz” and “Ami”. Finally she shares her experiences with two of the special skulls that “Moonhawk” uses for performing the sacred chants {that have been handed down over many generations} with his various healing groups. )

Chapter 7 -- Personal Experiences and Insights with the Crystal Skulls (from various sources) ( The goal of this chapter is to provide an idea of the type of experiences that can happen to a person who has contact with an ancient crystal skull. Here we hear the stories of various people from different parts of the world about what happened to them while they were visiting or had contact (at times indirectly) with the Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull, “Ami” and “ET”. The chapter finishes with a few additional stories around our crystal skull, “Portal de Luz” including the possibility of the existence of a gigantic crystal skull that may exist at the center of the earth? )

Chapter 8 -- How to Work with a Crystal Skull (Personal Techniques and Exercises) ( This chapter focuses upon our suggestions about how the reader can select the right crystal skull for themselves. We also share our personal process that we used to activate our own crystal skulls (one in which our skulls indirectly taught us). Additionally we included some personal stories about what effect our circle of skulls had upon people who came to our private sessions. Other topics discussed in this chapter include a simple system for protecting yourself from negative energy or thoughts and we discuss a bit more about the etheric crystal skull energy network. We provide some suggestions of how to prepare yourself when it’s your time to meet in person an ancient crystal skull and what are the differences between these older skulls and the newer ones. )

45 Chapter 9 -- The Indigenous Views of the Crystal Skulls ( Some researchers believe that if there is a group of people that live on our planet who perhaps truly understand what the crystal skulls are all about, this can be found within the various indigenous cultures. Some of these tribes {or nations} not only may have been guarding some very old crystal skulls for a long time but also have a prophecy or oral traditions {that have been passed down from generation to generation} which discusses the crystal skulls. Thus you will find in this chapter comments from seven different Native American sources from North America and a few other sources that provide the perspectives from the Mayans, Toltec and the Inca. )

Chapter 10 -- Crystal Skull Research (Part I – Research conducted before 2000) ( Chapters 10-12 contains some of the most important information for this book. Within these chapters the reader will discover a wide range of different scientific research that has been conducted over the years related to the skulls. Chapter 10 focuses upon the key research conducted before the year of 2000 by various individuals and groups. We include a summary of the special research done by Frank Dorland with the “Mitchell- Hedges Crystal Skull of Love” in the 1960’s-1970’s. The face created from a mold of the Mitchell-Hedges Skull organized by published author, Frank Joseph. The key work and investigation done by The Society of Crystal Skulls International {founded by F. R. ‘Nick’ Nocerino}; and finally the special research project conducted for the BBC documentary created by Morton and Thomas at the British Museum in London in 1996.)

Chapter 11 -- Crystal Skull Research (Part II – The World Mystery Research Center Experiments with electronic devices) (The World Mystery Research Center, co-founded by Joshua Shapiro, is a scientific and educational non-profit foundation. Its goal is to research from a scientific and perspective a wide range of subjects considered to be world mysteries including of course, the crystal skulls. Within this specific chapter, the authors focus upon their involvement in various experiments and tests utilizing a number of different electronic devices. The goal for performing these tests was to better understand the energetic effect that the crystal skulls have upon the people who have had a personal encounter with them. Such devices which were utilized included: Meridian Stress Test Systems, Aura-based machines, a Brain Wave detector, a special energetically- sensitived pendulum and another device known as a Lecher Antenna.)

46 Chapter 12 --Crystal Skull Research (Part III – The World Mystery Research Center Secret Codes and Crop Circles) (This final research chapter involves secret codes that may be related to the crystal skulls which can perhaps unlock their mystery. First we look at the messages given about the crystal skulls using the controversial Bible Code. Secondly, we present some other hidden information in a pictorial format that is contained within the crystal skulls themselves using a special computer process that works with digital images of the skulls. The last part of the chapter deals with our experiments in various crop circles in England and Holland, when we brought some of our crystal skulls into these circles and discuss what happened to us – some great stories in this section of the book.)

Chapter 13 -- Crystal Skull Theories (What is the Purpose of the Crystal Skulls? Who Created the Ancient Skulls and How were they Made?) ( Our final chapter takes a deep examination of various ideas and theories that originate from various sources with strong links to the crystal skulls which discuss: Why the crystal skulls were created and by whom; How they were made; and What might be their ultimatum purpose especially as it is related to our near future. You will hear the perspectives from a few well-known crystal skull researchers as well as discover what information has been received through various psychics or spiritual channels who have worked closely with a crystal skull. Next, we take a look at the possibility of the existence of a special set of 13 crystal skulls that belong together. There are many individuals who have a strong feeling that such a set of skulls truly exist as well as this legend has been revealed through various oral traditions of the Native Americans. We also look at a story told that states there is a unique set of crystal skulls that may have originated from a very advanced civilization that lives inside of our planet (The Hollow Earth). Additionally, in this chapter we review certain ideas given previously in the book to further answer the three questions we posed above collected from various indigenous sources or from the personal experiences of those who had a contact with one of the ancient crystal skull. The chapter concludes with some final thoughts from Joshua about what role the crystal skulls are serving in our modern culture.)

48 Crystal Skull Events with Joshua & Blue Arrow Rainbow

Since 2001, we have worked and traveled together to numerous places around the world in order to share key information about the crystal skulls with the general public. As you will read below, we offer various types of activities and events related to the crystal skulls as well as an opportunity for an individual to have their own personal experience and contact with one. As we move forward, we intend to continue our outreach into many new locations within the world and to work more closely with other crystal skull teachers and caretakers.

What does our public Crystal Skull Event consist of?

ˆ Public Lecture (2-3 hours) – a slide presentation that provides a brief history and discussion about how the crystal skulls first surfaced and which ones are publicly known today. We then delve in various theories about their true purpose and why the crystal skulls are important for humanity’s future. Lastly, we present the research we have been conducting with the crystal skulls through our World Mystery Research Center (based in the U.S.)

ˆ Workshop (includes the “Lightworker’s Toolbox”, 2-3 hours) – A continuation and further exploration into the key theories surrounding the origins of the crystal skulls with some hands-on work with an actual crystal skull and a discussion about the process that can bring your personal skull to life (or activate it). The workshop concludes with a talk about using (or finding) one’s true inner or spiritual gifts to discover your life’s purpose and help to create peace in our world.

ˆ Crystal Skull Healing and Intuitive Consultations – an opportunity to work privately with one of our crystal skulls, receive a universal healing energy through Blue Arrow Rainbow and/or to have an intuitive question and answer period with Joshua (who works with his spirit guides).

ˆ Meditation for World Peace – We offer throughout our event a meditation working with the energies of the crystal skulls to send out to the Earth a powerful energy for world peace.

ˆ Joint Events -- In 2004, we began to investigate working with other crystal skull caretakers, researchers, and teachers (including indigenous elders) which resulted in three small conferences in Switzerland and two Crystal Skull Festivals in the Netherlands in October of 2006 and another in Hungary in October of 2007. For 2008, there are two more festivals which will be held. Please feel free to contact for more details or visit the website at:

http://www.crystalskullevents.org

If you would be interested to bring one of our crystal skull events to your local area or have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to contact us. We believe that the message of the crystal skulls is very important for humanity’s future. Hope to meet you at an upcoming event …..

Joshua Shapiro & Blue Arrow Rainbow email: [email protected] / [email protected] 49 A SHORT DESCRIPTION ABOUT OUR CONSULTATIONS WITH THE CRYSTAL SKULLS (HEADS)

We thought it might be of interest for our readers to briefly discuss how we conduct our own consultations in order to give to you an idea about how a person can incorporate a crystal skull (head) into their own spiritual work. What we have done is to combine our individual spiritual gifts working in tandem with the energy that is held by each of our personal crystal skulls (heads).

To setup for our sessions we place on a table, all of our (working) crystal skulls (heads), facing forward, so that they are sitting directly in front of our client. We lay the skulls (heads) upon a special cloth such as animal fur. The other tool we utilize for our session is a portable CD player with headphones. All of our sessions begin with a meditation with music, while the client holds the skull (head) of their choice in their lap.

Essentially our consultations serve three purposes: First our client has a chance to experience the type of energies which are linked to a crystal skull (head). In some cases, this energy can act as a catalyst that triggers a personal transformation for them. This is the reason we ask each person to select which crystal skull (head) they feel the greatest affinity to work with as each of our skulls (heads) offers their own unique and individualized service. Second, our clients can receive a personal healing or just receive the appropriate (universal) energies that are necessary for them at that time. In general these healing energies are given during their meditation with the music. And lastly, our clients have an opportunity to ask questions about their personal life or at times we may receive some specific information or messages that are channeled that we are to share with them. Mostly, the type of information we receive deals with the potential creative or spiritual gifts the individual has or what is their life’s purpose.

As to the type of healing the client can expect to receive during their session, this can range from some assistance for various physical and emotional problems or a type of mental block; or it can be connected with a karmic (past-life) situation. For some of our clients, they require a certain period of time after their session for the healing energy to be completely integrated into their body (vibrationally).

We recommend for our clients that they bring with them a personal crystal. This allows their crystal to record and absorb the healing energies present during their session or whatever energy is being emitted by any or all of our crystal skulls (heads). In this way, a client can continue to work with these energies and the information given during their session in the comfort of their own home by having physical contact with this crystal.

Blue Arrow Rainbow and I believe that the presence of the crystal skulls (heads) during our sessions greatly assists us in creating a peaceful and protected environment in the consultation room. Furthermore, we feel clearer as channels so we can bring forth the most appropriate level of healing energies and information that will benefit each client. Additionally, we have observed on numerous occasions how our crystal skulls (heads) are able to help shift and balance a person’s energy in the precise manner that they require. We have noticed during some of our sessions, unusual phenomena which happen to and around our skulls (heads). For example, “Portal” or “Mozes” have a tendency to change “their” internal color (becoming lighter or darker) or we notice that when we hold them after the session has finished, their weight has changed too. 50 IInntteerrvviieeww wwiitthh BBiillll HHoommaannnn

Who is Bill Homann? (The New Guardian of the “Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull of Love”)

( Note: this is an excerpt of a recent interview we conducted with Mr. Bill Homann from Indiana. who became the new caretaker of the newly named “Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull of Love” in April of 2007 due to the untimely passing of Miss Anna Mitchell-Hedges. The full interview will be contained in our new printed edition of Journeys of the Crystal Skull Explorers – see contact list on page 57 for the official Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull of Love website.)

Q: Mr. Homann, can you tell us a bit about your life and background?

Spirituality and God have always been the center of my life as far back as I can remember. I went to a Christian school and religion was my favorite subject. After graduation I continued my studies in world religions and various spiritual pathways, always being open to the experience of a more holistic way of living and thinking.

In the 70’s and early 80’s I studied Eckencar and that was where I learned to go within for the ultimate truth. Since then I have worked with the Rosicrucian teachings which have influenced me until this day.

51

Q: When did you first hear about the Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull?

Bill: The first time I heard about the Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull was when I was in the air force while stationed at Panama in 1968. I remember seeing a picture of it in an article I was reading and I thought it was strange that I couldn’t take my eyes from it.

While in Panama I ended up staying at a base near the canal. The pictures of F.A. Mitchell-Hedges that were on the wall intrigued me along with the corresponding stories. One story is that F.A. was called to the canal to free it from a giant squid that had stopped all of the traffic. He had to harpoon it, carve it up in smaller pieces and tug the pieces out to sea.

While I was on the lovely island of Toboga off of the coast of Panama I stayed at a wonderful hotel on the beach. The owner told me stories of Mitchell-Hedges and his daughter Anna. They stayed at this hotel while sailing into the bay fishing for great sharks. These and other stories remained with me through the years.

Many years later I heard about Anna Mitchell-Hedges (Sammy) and the Crystal Skull from friends in Chicago. I called Anna and set up an appointment to meet with her and the skull in 1981.

Meeting Anna for the first time left me feeling like I have known her forever and we became instant friends. That feeling only grew stronger as we spent more and more time together and we both came to realize that our bond was karmic.

When I saw the Crystal Skull for the first time it felt like meeting with an old friend. There was a feeling of respect, connection and communication with it. I almost felt compelled to work with it.

Q: Can you expand a bit more about this special feeling or connection you had with the crystal skull when you first saw it. Did something special happen to you during this time or was it just a strong feeling you had that you really know the skull?

Bill: There was quite a bit that happened to me. If I think back to that time, it was like a major happening. That’s why I didn’t say more in my previous answer because I couldn’t remember exactly what happened to me then – oh, (but I do recall) there were dreams that took place (afterwards that occurred) during the Mayan times – and Sammy (Anna Mitchell-Hedges) was there and the crystal skull was there. I witnessed a big ceremony with the crystal skull. And this wasn’t just a passing dream; it was a powerful one as if I was right in it. Beside the dreams, well, I would have to really put my mind to it and unravel it and this is why I gave a simple answer before, because I didn’t want to go deep into my mind and try to remember it all. But it was a major happening. It was a life changing event. At that time, I was going in one way in my life and all of a sudden when this happened, it changed my whole curse and life direction. And I knew that this was my purpose and destiny (to be involved with the crystal skull) – it was like an awakening. 52

Q: And now Mr. Homann, you are the Guardian of this Crystal Skull, what does this mean for you?

In the last eight years of Anna’s life I had the privilege of having her live with me so that I could watch over her and take care of her. Because of our strong bond she has honored me by trusting that I will carry on her wishes concerning the future of the skull.

I believe the main message that the skull is trying to share with the world is for all of us to drop our egos and to work and support each other as if we are all one. That all living beings contribute to the whole and all are sacred. We are not separate from A photo of the Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull of each other; we are all connected Love taken after the research we conducted in through love. Rather than live in our Indiana on behalf of the Scifi Show (aired May 28th, own single minded consciousness 2008) entitled: Mystery of the Crystal Skulls. we need to embrace unity (Permission granted by Bill Homann, caretaker) consciousness.

Some of you may even wonder why I am now the keeper of this skull. I believe because of my past ties the skull is where it wants to be. It is multidimensional and would be gone if it didn’t want to be here in this reality.

I also feel that the crystal skulls are here to help man connect to a higher consciousness. That they work by connecting with the heart of man by breaking down the barriers that keep people from feeling oneness with each other. This is where the great healing takes place and this is why we are now calling this “The Skull of Love”.

World Mystery Research Center

In our world today exists many mysteries ... some of which remain unsolved and others which can not be explained by any kind of our modern day scientific theories. It is the goal of our center to utilize all known methods of research, both scientific and paranormal, to try and uncover the truth and the hidden messages or information which lay encoded within each of these mysteries. More importantly however, we believe that this hidden knowledge will ultimately provide vital information for the future evolution of humanity.

The World Mystery Research Center is involved in a number of key areas of research that include: Crystal Skulls, UFOs, The Bible Code, World Prophecies, Crop Circles, Indigenous Wisdom and Spiritual Healing. The World Mystery Research Center was founded as a 501c3 non-profit corporation in January 2001 in the United States based in the state of Illinois. The Center was started through the efforts of R. "Joshua" Shapiro, a spiritual author, investigator and speaker and is presently working to form alliances and associations with other like-minded individuals and organizations throughout the world. We hope to open up other branches in other countries in the near future.

54 Blue Arrow Rainbow’s Energy-Art

Blue Arrow Rainbow has been channeling energy art drawings (inspired by her spirit guides) such as these for the past several years. She is currently working on a new book that will share others examples of these drawings that she is creating. Above are two examples of the type of energy-art paintings she has done. Some people who have gazed at her paintings are able to observe a number of incredible and subtle images inside of them or will use these paintings to focus upon during their personal meditations.

Final Thoughts from the authors:

Because of what the crystal skulls could represent for the future of humanity, we believe that these ancient artifacts deserve a great deal more time, attention and study. Based upon our personal investigation into the skulls and from information we have gathered from numerous others, we understand the following:

These ancient crystalline tools or receptacles, known as the crystal skulls, contain very important information and knowledge that will assist our world through a transformational process that will ultimately bring peace for our planet and its inhabitants. It has been suggested through the Mayan Prophecy, that this process will be completed by December 21st, 2012 or what they call the ‘Year Zero’. This is not very far in our future. We have heard of other indigenous legends or oral traditions that also speak about such changes to our world, although they do not all agree upon the same specific date when this process will be completed. However, several of these sources also recognize the importance of the crystal skulls and the service they can and will offer to humanity.

Regardless of where or from whom these very old crystal skulls originate (i.e. – advanced civilizations in the past or brought here from other worlds?), it is very clear that their energy is having a significant impact on the lives of the people they touch. There are so many personal stories that we have received from others about how the skulls revitalized their health or their lives in some way. They are even a key catalyst for help people with spontaneous openings that occur related to their spiritual gifts or a hidden creative talent. Therefore, one may only conclude that the crystal skulls represent one of the most important tools of our time for helping to awaken the true inner potential within humanity. Perhaps they are the visible reminders on some level that we are all members of the same human family and now, more then ever, must unite together to create a better world that consists of more laughter and joy. We believe, that in the near future, all will be revealed so that we will be able to more fully understand what these fascinating and mysterious crystalline objects represent.

Thank you for joining us on this brief journey into the world of the crystal skulls. We look forward to sharing more with you in the future.

In Peace, Light, Love and Joy ……
