Peter Tongue's
Live Talk Show Schedule
I am delighted to offer you this wonderful package for Christmas! All four of my guests for December presented at the Science and Non-Duality Conference in San Francisco and brought forward absolutely superb information. I hope you have the opportunity to listen to all of them over the Holiday season!
December 7th
Shauna Shapiro and
Peter Russell
"Timeless Essence, Infinite Being"
Peter and Shauna will discuss one of our critical challenges today, which is to free human thinking from the limiting beliefs and attitudes that lie behind so many of our problems, personal, social and global. They will also discuss the role of mindfulness meditation and how it can liberate us from such limitations, as well as the awareness that consciousness is the fundamental essence of the cosmos. With consciousness as primary, everything remains the same and everything changes.
December 14th Florian Schlosser "The Infinite Rhythm of Love and Freedom"
In all of us there are two existential forces moving everything in life. On the one hand there is FREEDOM. It is the force that does not need, want or demand anything. Its inner quality is free of content. It is its own fulfillment and joy. On the other hand there is LOVE. It is the force that looks for unity, empathy and connection. Its inner quality is wanting to meet and being met. Feeling each other and savouring life as our own embodied experience is its natural expression. Florian will play with the infinite rhythm between these apparently exclusive opposites.
December 21st
Lynne McTaggart
"The Bond: Connecting Through the Space Between Us"
Best selling author of "The Field" and "The Intention Experiment", Lynne McTaggart will explain her latest findings that we are in constant relationship with everything and everyone. All living things succeed and prosper only when they see themselves as part of a greater whole and fully embrace the space between us; the relationship itself. The Bond. Lynne will provide the roadmap of how to live according to this new scientific story- a prescription for living based on cooperation and partnership.
December 28th
Dr. John Hagelin
"Is Consciousness the Unified Field"
Progress in theoretical physics has lead to the discovery of a single universal, unified field at the basis of all forms and phenomena in the universe. At the same time, cutting edge research in the field of neuroscience has revealed the existence of a unified field of consciousness. John will discuss these parallel discoveries and raise questions concerning the relationship between the two. John will engage us in a fascinating exploration of the vast range of human potential-an all-encompassing perspective of humanity that is both visionary and practical.

Turquoise
Turquoise is one of the oldest protection amulets, and was also known as a symbol of wealth in many ancient cultures. It is the power stone for Sagittarius, horses and riders and aids in travel. If given a turquoise by a loving friend, that stone would protect the wearer from negative energy and bring good fortune. The turquoise is the symbol of friendship. It also brings peace to the home. This stone is a very personal and meaningful stone to one who wears it. Turquoise takes on the characteristics of the owner. Turquoise carries great wisdom of basic truth within it. It is one of the oldest stones known. This is a stone that a person must learn to attune to instead of the stone attuning to the person. It is important that the owner of a Turquoise give it the proper attention.
Turquoise
- Neutralizes overacidity
- Alleviates rheumatism, gout, stomach problems, viral infections
- Increases growth, muscular strength
- Alleviates pain, relaxes cramps
- Contains anti-inflammatory and detoxifying effects
- Application: should be worn on the solar plexus
Turquoise is a stone that has been prized for many years. The ancient Egyptians used turquoise in jewelry. Turquoise is greenish-blue or pale sky blue. The name means "Turkish stone" as it came to Europe by way of Turkey. Turquoise was mined more than 6,000 years ago in Sinai. The best turquoise comes from Iran, but not much is exported now. Much turquoise comes from Mexico and the United States today.

A Glimpse Into the Fifth Dimension!
by Peter Tongue
Having completed the most challenging aspect of our work in the landscape zodiac through the downtown core in Scorpio, we felt free to enjoy the lighter side of town in our garden of Eden, Beacon Hill Park, for the 11:11:11. We knew this was going to be a potent and powerful day, connecting with the energies of the traditional Armistice Day as well as the numerous spiritual ceremonies that were taking place around the world. It felt like this massive wave of energy was flowing around the planet beginning in the East and moving West, connecting in with all of the sacred sites around the globe, the ley lines and crystalline Grid. What was the significance of this particular day? Why was it seen to be so important?
The first realization is that when millions of people consciously focus on a particular day or event, then it becomes important anyway. This has been clearly demonstrated through Global Consciousness Experiments previously. On this occasion, there were a number of intentions and activities coming together in this moment-a wonderful opportunity for conscious humanity to come together as one at 11.11am on 11:11:11, November 11th, 2011.
We chose a number of spots in our Beacon Hill Park to connect on this sacred day. We started at mile zero where the Trans Canada Highway begins and where there is a statue of our Canadian hero, Terry Fox. Terry ran 3339 miles, approximately half way across the country, running the equivalent of a full marathon, 40 km, every day on 143 consecutive days-an incredible achievement-even the more so on a prosthetic leg. Terry's journey finished near Thunder Bay, Ontario, as a result of his cancer recurring, leading to his ultimate death. His legacy lives on, however, as millions of dollars are raised for cancer research every year, through the annual Terry Fox runs held across Canada and the World every year. Terry represents the hero's journey that we are all undertaking. It is also relevant to start our journey at mile zero, as we were working with zero point energy coming through to us from the fifth dimensional realms
Our ceremonial spot for the 11.00am until 11.11am was at the rock cairns just below the Beacon Hill Look Out. These stone cairns represent burial sites for the indigenous peoples of this land. In our reflection, we connected with the Elders spirits, seeking forgiveness and reconciliation for the disruptions to their way of life, created by the arrival of the white man. We used this site to connect to the crystalline grid of the planet which was now being activated up to 92% through the crystalline ley line grids anchored in Lake Titicaca and then transmitted through great circles around the planet. We also experienced a portal opening into the fifth dimensional realms during this sacred moment.
Our next stop was the tallest totem pole in the world,  where we aligned ourselves with our own personal vivaxis, the place where we were born, the totem pole which aligns with the Axis Mundi of our landscape zodiac horizontally, and the center of the earth vertically. It will also align perfectly with the center of the Milky Way galaxy on December 21st, 2012. This opportunity aligns us with all that is, NOW, in preparation for this next year and the precise alignment to come.
We then moved into the center of the park under the auspicious arch of the rainbow, where we were symbolically moving backwards in time returning to the moment just before the first separation-Eve, the Apple and the serpent. We were all given a small, shiny, red majestic Apple to give back to the "Tree of Knowledge". It was wonderful to see this magnificent ancient tree decorated with these gorgeous red apples. This process took us back to before the first corruption, the first separation, relieving Eve of all of the blame that she has suffered ever since.
We were now truly in the Garden of Eden, enjoying the trees, ponds, ducks, peacocks, heron and other birds, as we walked a figure of eight around Goodacre Lake crossing the bridge to Avalon! Literally Avalon Street, where we visited the home and birthplace of Emily Carr, our representative of the transformed Scorpio Eagle in our landscape.
It was a magnificent day and since this initiation we have been given some remarkable insights into how our connection to the fifth dimension works.
We have come to the realization that within our group we have a number of gatekeepers to the fifth dimension. What has started to happen is that as people approach these gatekeepers, they open a portal of opportunity. Most people in this situation are unconscious of the opportunity that is being offered to them. You either choose to engage in an interaction which elevates you into your fifth dimensional-self, you choose to step back and remain in the third dimension, or you choose to step up and become a gatekeeper yourself. The communication at the fifth dimensional level takes on a very different vibration. It is quite surreal. It feels as if someone else is speaking through you and the other person you are with, but the information is profound and meaningful to the other person. This is, I believe, how we are going to communicate our thoughts and ideas in the future, from a higher place of knowing. We each have a free choice as to how we are going to proceed with this. It is better to be consciously aware, however, so that you can make good decisions for yourself!
We are living in extremely exciting times, which also prove to be very challenging as well. The key is to stay calm, peaceful and centered whatever is taking place in the world around you, both locally and globally.
Also feel free to get in touch with me if you are struggling to understand what is happening to you in your world, or if you want to advance to the next level of awareness in consciousness! Please contact me at descendingdove@gmail.com |

Scorpio Workshop
Metamorphosis-Keep Your Eye on the Eagle! 
The sign of Scorpio is one that most people pull back from and prefer to avoid. The reason is that the energy of Scorpio reflects back to you your shadow side- your unhealed aspects of self- those pieces of you that you don't really appreciate. Scorpio also offers you the courage to take a look inside and realize that it is not as challenging as you thought and there are some hidden gems awaiting your discovery. Perhaps not surprisingly, our Scorpio effigy wraps itself around the inner Harbor where most of the dark acts and skulduggery in history have taken place, in our more typically light and delightful city.
Without doubt this workshop was potentially the most challenging yet, both from an individual perspective and for our walk through the landscape. Scorpio rules the sex organs, death and regeneration, hence the challenge of the day.
We began at The Sculpture Studio, underneath the Johnson Street Bridge, where the owner David Hunwik and Ted Spiers had a number of their spectacular creations on view. The contrast of David's metal sculptings and Ted's wood creations makes the most appealing contrast www.thesculpturestudio.net One of David's latest creations is titled "Hercules", one of our heroes in the landscape.
Melanie and Mary gave us wonderful insight into the energies of Scorpio through the astrology, personalities and history of our downtown Victoria. Probably Francis Rattenbury epitomizes this dark Scorpionic energy best. As the architect of the Empress Hotel and Parliament buildings in our Scorpio, he was ultimately murdered by his mistress and her lover, having left our shores, returning to England in disgrace. In contrast, Emily Carr, who lived on the light side of our Scorpio in James Bay, painted two massive Eagles on the sloping roof of the attic in her "House Of All Sorts", reminding us that the transcendent aspect of Scorpio is the Eagle.
To go through the full transformation in consciousness, it is necessary to move through the shadow and experience the dark night of the soul. It is only a transitory stage, however, and it is essential to remember this, keeping the eye on the Eagle and avoiding the self-destructive downward spiral of the scorpion into the thick morass. Why is it necessary to go through this process? There are two reasons. If we don't clear out our shadow energy with understanding and compassion, then it will come back to haunt us when we least expect it to, or want it to-usually at some critical juncture in our lives. Secondly and perhaps most importantly, residing in the shadow are the most sensitive, valuable treasures of our true selves. They got buried there, the first time that we had to pretend to be something we are not. The first corruption of our true authentic selves. The conditioning that creates pretense. When we face our inner demons and dragons, we come to realize that in reality they are the protectors and guardians of our internal treasure box of gifts-our golden nuggets-our true sensitive self. We had a magnificent opportunity late in the day, during our walk, to make peace with and befriend our dragons. On the corner of Pandora and Government Street near the entrance to Chinatown, there is a giant Red Dragon, holding a golden ball aloft-offering a magnificent, tangible opportunity for us to make friends with this creature and retrieve our hidden treasures.
We also had the opportunity to face our fears through the old, dark energies of Helmcken Alley and Bastion Square, where the "Hanging Judge Begbie" sentenced people to death by hanging. The energy of fear, anxiety, sorrow and grief are palpable still today, but every member of our group overcame their fears and took part in a magnificent clearing of the energies during our walk through this dark area within our downtown core.
I continue to be amazed at how our team of Melanie, Mary, Zia (formerly Lisa) and Ted find the most compelling insights, stories, landscape features and activities of light to perform. It really is a magnificent co-creation and I am eternally grateful to them for their individual and collective brilliance.
Our journey next took us down the backbone of the Scorpion from its head, along its spine, curving around to the sting in the tail, which is in our Government House. The gardens at the back of the house are absolutely breathtaking and Zia led us in a ceremony to transmute the dark crimson-red energies of accumulated anger, rage and resentment into the golden elixir of life, to begin its flow of kundalini energy from the sting in the tail, back up the spine, through the head and out into the crown in the inner Harbor. Scorpio offers the opportunity for complete Metamorphosis from the Scorpion's sting in the tail, through the snake in the underworld of the belly, emerging as the Eagle through the heart and into the pure White Dove of the Holy Spirit in the Crown.
On November 1st, 2011, the 1:11:11 it felt as though the alchemical transformation of our city was complete, providing us with a safe, vital and energized container to continue our work of conscious co-creation, as we move forward into the Centaur of Sagittarius, King Arthur on his White Horse, in our next workshop on Sunday, December 4th. |
Sky WatchMonthly Constellation
Heroic Skies
The December night is nothing short of heroic in both its sky lore and actual appearance. Most of the brilliance and most of the constellations representing great figures in Greek Mythology are concentrated in a tall, giant wedge of sky centred in the east and running from the horizon to almost overhead. The quintessential hero is Perseus, now very high in the east. He's reaching up to the dimmer leg of Andromeda, the damsel in distress he rescues, near her mother Cassiopea. Not far from Perseus is a sight that has amazed and delighted people since time immemorial. It looks like a tiny dipper or teacup of glittering stars, but its popularly known as the Seven Sisters: the Pleiades Cluster.
For the planets this month; Mercury can be seen at dawn low in the south-east. Venus the bright, "Evening Star" shines low in the south-west during evening twilight and Mars in Leo rises in the late evening and shines in the south before dawn. Jupiter dominates the high south-east during evening and Saturn shines in the south-east before dawn far below and to the left of Mars. The star to its right is Spica. Finally the Full Moon has a total eclipse in Gemini, near the west coast, before and during dawn on December 10th.

Astrological Signs
Sagittarius 
Sagittarius is the ninth sign of the zodiac and the last fire sign. It is ruled by Jupiter and therefore carries many of the same qualities. It is expansive, optimistic, seeing the bigger picture without getting bogged down in the details. Sagittarius is letting fly the arrow into the heart of the matter, arrows carrying us to the stars. It represents our real purpose here on the planet, cutting through all of the short term obstacles and distractions. They will reject societal values in favour of a higher truth. The energies of Sagittarius transmute the fixed, powerful and controlling energies of Scorpio into aspiring, earthy, pragmatic Capricorn. There is tremendous honesty and purpose of belief. |

Monthly Animal Totem
Horse |  |
The horse has a very close association with Sagittarius as the mythical CENTAUR is half man, half horse. In our landscape effigy it is King Arthur on his white horse. The mythological horse sees the essence of a man's soul and enables the shaman to fly through the air and reach heaven. For humans, the horse offers freedom of travel and fleetness of foot. It is therefore a symbol of freedom, travel and power. This power includes wisdom and a balanced medicine shield through humility. Compassion, caring, teaching, loving, sharing your gifts, talents and abilities are the gateways to real power. |
