Open Your Ancient Eyes with Sharon Ramel

Your imagination might not be lying to you, it might be remembering. We sit down with Sharon Ramel, a fairy shaman and high priestess of the blue rose, to talk about the fairy realm as a living relationship with nature, spirit, and the unseen beings many of us sensed as kids before we were trained to ignore it.

We get practical fast: how to approach tree spirits and dryads with respect, how “permission” changes everything, and why the Fae care so much about truth, honesty, and deals kept. We also zoom out into the bigger map of reality and compare the physical plane with the fairy plane, the astral plane, and the Akashic field. Along the way we touch the tricky edge cases: what to do with mischievous energies, why fear can attract more chaos, and how to stay grounded without shutting down your intuition.

Then we guide you through two powerful practices you can try right away. First is “opening your ancient eyes,” a breath-led method that shifts perception so subtle light, color, and depth can emerge naturally. Second is Sharon’s “thinking cap” of light, linking third eye, visual cortex, crown, and heart to help restore visualization, inner listening, and clear speech. We end with stories that stretch across Sweden’s forests, Scotland’s waters, and a Selkie encounter off Ventura Beach, all pointing to one grounded takeaway: slow down, breathe, and relate to the world like it can respond.

If this sparked something in you, subscribe, share this with a friend who loves folklore and spiritual practice, and leave us a review with the strangest “nature is talking back” moment you’ve had.

Welcome And Meeting A Fairy Shaman

SPEAKER_05 0:21

Hello, hello, hello, and welcome to Rainbow's Rising, where we ascend together. I'm your host, Rainbow Raja. For the past three weeks, I have taken you on a wonderful journey through the fairy realm. And on this journey, we have now found a new fairy friend. And her name is Sharon Rammel. And I would love to introduce her. She is a fairy shaman and a high priestess of the blue rose. And I'd like to welcome her here today. Thank you so much for joining us, Sharon.

SPEAKER_02 0:59

Thank you so so much, Rainbow. It is my absolute honor to be here. So from my belly, from my heart, and from the soul to my mind, I am absolutely delighted to join you here on this path that is part of our lineage because we all have the ancient fairy and the modern fairy pulsing through our veins. But sadly, we've been educated out of it, and society society sometimes goes, oh, she's always talking about fairies, she's a bit weird. We need to educate her and send her to institutions and let her live in the real world rather than the imaginal worlds that we both know are true, and they're here to help us. And so thank you so much, Farembo, for inviting me on this magical journey with you here today. It is my honour, and I come from you from a very beautiful place called Yelling Up Western Australia. So Yelling Up the place of places. It was a place where people met, the ancient people used to meet. So we have gathered here on ancient lands of the Wednesday Bujar people, where the spirit meets the sea. So I'm absolutely thrilled to join you.

SPEAKER_05 2:17

I love that. I love how you spoke of the land where you are. That's such a beautiful image. Because we are meeting up. And for you, it must be early morning. For me, it's 10 10 p.m. at night.

SPEAKER_02 2:34

1 10 p.m.

SPEAKER_05 2:35

for me in the afternoon. 1-1-1-1.

SPEAKER_02 2:41

Because it's it's May 11th.

SPEAKER_05 2:43

It's May 11th for me.

SPEAKER_02 2:45

Yeah, um must be May 12th. According to the Watch Rules of the World, it is May 12th for me.

SPEAKER_05 2:53

Ooh. So that's what's what's also interesting about the fairies is the fairies exist everywhere and nowhere. As time and space don't seem to really apply to these magical interdimensional creatures. They don't.

SPEAKER_02 3:10

And the great thing is that wherever we are and wherever we move to, we have the opportunity to get to know a whole new bunch of fairies. Because I know that you like me, we were both heavily brought up in the Celtic realms, uh, because I can see that beats very deeply in your ancient heart, as it does in mine, mine very specifically through my maternal grandmother. Um, but my maternal grandmother, so we would talk about all of the amazing Faye, but then she would go, But we are here in Australia, and so come with me, darling. And we would race through the forests and talk to the to the tree spirits, to the dryads, and and they are some of my favorites. We I always have trees wherever I go, and and everybody, if you can find your own special tree, because you will see it twinkling at you, speaking to you, but approach it with

Tree Spirits And Dryad Etiquette

SPEAKER_02 4:10

care. So I always like to gently come up to a tree and and bow to it, to my third eye, to my heart, to my belly, and to open myself and ask, do you have any wisdom to give to me this day? And if the tree says yes, then I always circle it three times. And then I go back to my start point and I ask, may I humbly sit with you? And then I always feel a portal opening, and I walk there and I sit. Sorry, I'm dog sitting at the moment. I know that was that was so beautifully climbed.

SPEAKER_05 4:51

She's like, and then the portal opens. She's like, No, not the portal, not the port.

SPEAKER_02 4:57

And that dog is a bit skitty. She's she's she's she sees all of the creatures here, and I think it unnerves her because she's not from here, whereas our dog is used to it, and she's like, Oh, yeah, yeah, hi, how are you going? Yep, yep, yep, me too. So completely different conversations the dogs have with the spirits of this land. And so from then, when it's open, then I sit with the tree and I stay for as long as the dryad, the tree spirit is speaking with me. And you know, that is such a simple practice rainbow that anybody can do. Just ask the tree, do you have a message for me? And it will it will tell you very clearly, you'll get an energetic nope. Or a no yes, okay, and that you can open that sacred space with each other in any way you like. But because I was brought up a matrilineal witch from a very young age by my maternal grandmother, everything was the power of three. So motor will be, and that is a that's just so deeply ingrained with me. And again, when I close, I I close the circle by going around the other way, and then I I back out, I never walk away. I I back out and bow and thank. Because respect, we must respect the other realms, and even when you are new at this, respect is your key to enter. Because when you respect, they they pick up on it, don't they? They do.

SPEAKER_05 6:32

They do. And I I had brought up some of the the laws and the rules when working with the fairies, and because they have very strong moral compasses on truth, on respect, on honesty, on um deals kept, right? If you make a deal with a fairy, you better keep that deal. Um and I love that you shared that practice. It's very interesting. I don't know if I shared it here on this podcast, but I did share a very similar practice about connecting with the trees. And I also shared a story about this one time I was in Los Angeles, which is where I was I wasn't born in LA, but I was born in one of the cities around LA. And I was walking through LA, and they keep these trees in the they have a little hole in the cement that's about this big. And I remember walking past this tree, and I just was so overwhelmed with sadness, and I turned and I saw the tree, and I went up and I hugged the tree, and I was like, Are you okay? And the tree just I know they can't cry, but it felt like it was crying relief. It was like, thank you for seeing me. I am choked in this place. There's not a single tree on this entire block, I can't talk to anybody, nobody notices me, and the only people who notice me come to pee on me, and I don't know why. And I couldn't stop crying. I just remember feeling such deep sorrow for this tree, and I just I hugged him and I was like, I love you, tree. I'm so sorry, nobody pays attention to you. If I had power, I would remove you from this place, but I don't have power, but I see you, and I just sat and hugged the tree for a little bit and like told it that humans are silly, silly, silly creatures that don't understand what they're doing. And it was a really beautiful exchange, and it helped me realize that no matter where you are, like there are spirits, souls that are yearning to be connected with. Like, humans are so disconnected in and of ourselves, but I can only imagine how the fairy realm feels and how the trees and the plants, and it's we have created such a disconnected um I don't know, realm or or environment for all of us to coexist in.

SPEAKER_02 9:07

Yeah, and and from that we wonder why the world's in such a great mess. Absolutely. Uh and then yeah, and we think power and greed is uh you know, as we're seeing displayed globally. We won't get into politics because that's just rotting.

SPEAKER_05 9:24

Um you know we can get into politics another day on another show.

SPEAKER_02 9:30

Yeah, we can't hide from it, but we can try our best to mitigate it by in our own backyard, as you said, loving the trees, loving the plants, revering our our pet friends and our pet friends, as our the dog that I'm uh babysitting just showed, she does not like some of the the fairy friends that we have around here, and it's only because she doesn't understand them.

Realms And What A Shaman Is

SPEAKER_05 9:56

What I wanted to discuss with you is this season on my show, I am introducing the listeners and viewers into different realms. So we have the physical plane, which is where we exist, right? Then I am introducing the fairy plane, which is our topic of conversation, and we're also gonna be covering the Akashic field and the astral plane. So those are the different realms we're covering this season. And I wanted to get your perspective on the fairy realm and how it corresponds to these other realms, including the physical world, and if you think that they're the same or if you think they're separate um places, and how how how did our world come to have so many different um you know realms? As a fairy shaman, I'm I'm assuming you are quite versed in all of the realms.

SPEAKER_02 10:52

So, well, so your basic shamanism, and again, but that remember a shaman is only a person who believes in the ancient ways earth, air, fire, water, as above, so below, as within. There is nothing mystical about it, there is nothing magical about it. It is respect for the planet, respect for all living things. And all living things include the things that we commonly cannot see because we used to be able to see them and do freely interact with the fairy realm, usually until around the age of seven. I know a little bit about you. You actually managed to hold on to you were about ten until the medical industry by your parents caught hold of you. I was only saved, but I had to go into myself and became quite a fierce little girl because of it. Um and I was saved by my maternal grandmother who would always pull me back into the fairy realm very gently, very consistently, very patiently. She was just like this almost honey pouring over my body to soothe the wounds inflicted by my very strict Roman Catholic mother. She wasn't born that way, she found it in a suitcase.

SPEAKER_05 12:12

Found it in a suitcase.

SPEAKER_02 12:13

That's a cute way of saying it. That was my grandmother saying, don't know what she did. She found it in stuff, she found this thing in a suitcase and dragged it home. So I had the honey of my grandmother against the brutality, and I know that that religion is not brutal for everybody, but for me it was because my mother was trying to scratch and get out this awful, evil, fairy magic, because she lived in a brutal world with a suffer where she had to suffer. That's a good Roman Catholic thing, they like suffering. Um, and she thought that we all had to suffer to appease her variety of God, Great Spirit, whatever. I see God Great Spirit is a loving, beautiful, enveloping, in and we are sacred. Yeah, you know, we we we whiffed upon a star, we chose to incarnate, and even the scientists now know that we have fairy dust in our bones. We came from the stars. We came from the fairies, and that is indisputable. It was good that science finally came up with it and finally learnt it. Um would have helped me about 60 years ago, wouldn't have had any function.

SPEAKER_05 13:34

The truth always comes out, it comes out in one form of

Religion Fear And Naughty Spirits

SPEAKER_05 13:38

another. Now, what's interesting is you said your your mother being a Roman Catholic, she had started to really see this this fairy fascination that you had as kind of this demonic almost a demonic influence, right? No, something that I have recently, since I've been trying to anchor in more of my spiritual belief uh in Jesus and God, um, which I rejected a lot of my life, but I recently have been seeing the fairies have been showing me almost like historical events of the fairy timeline in how the unsealy court would do things and be perceived as demons, and because they're not actually demons, they wouldn't be cast out the way demons would be cast out, and they would continue to cause mischief and you know, but they're they're involved in they're involved in our society, they've interwoven themselves like the the more mischievous, maybe anti-human collective of fairies have been very aggressive with trying to push humans out of of the way. And I'm wondering if maybe a lot of people who are Christian or Catholic, if their experiences with fairy is just with the fairies that don't receive humans very well because of all that we've done to their realm and to our own realm.

SPEAKER_02 15:09

Yeah, uh yeah, maybe that maybe that is resonating and they feel that in their hearts. Um, I you know, I can't speak for my mother, and so I I wouldn't dare even ask her that. It wouldn't be met very well, not even today. Um, but yeah, you you make a very good point because there are definitely creatures in the other worlds or the underworld or the middle world, whatever you wish to call it, that are definitely mischievous and can be extremely naughty. So I I know, for example, in my fairy shamanism course, I actually give a link to a man that I trust very much. So if people are in trouble and they need a um they need some of these spirits removed from them because they've got a hook into them in some way, that they can do that safely and easily. So that's why I I mentioned before when you approach the tree, it doesn't matter whether it's a tree, whether it's a rock, whether it's a river, whether you see fairies playing in your garden, or you can see them in a paddock way, way over yonder. We must approach with respect. And this is also key with shamanism. We ask permission to enter the worlds, the upper world, the middle world, which is our earth plane, and the lower world.

SPEAKER_01 16:34

We always ask permission.

SPEAKER_02 16:36

These elements air, fire, various, various spirit animals, they from Australia, the United States, South America, Europe, everybody has sacred animals, sacred flowers that that are connected with the elements. And as when we create the sacred space, when we live in sacred space, we feel that beautiful dome of light. We feel those bands just wrapping around us, and we walk in strength and light knowing that we are safe. But I think too many of us, because I completely rejected my mother's Roman Catholicism, for example, uh, but I did have a time where I literally wandered the world's and you did feel attacked, and you did, and you didn't know what was going on. You particularly when you're away from people you've gone to foreign places because you're trying to get as far away from your upbringing as you can, realizing eventually that you can't escape yourself and it doesn't matter where you are, right? So yeah, yeah, yeah. So true. So I I think a lot of that comes back to yes, there have always been everything is to me, everything is in every realm. I can I can journey to the lower world and meet great big you know underground mountains in the sky that speak with me. I can journey in this realm in the middle world, the fairies. I mean, for me, people who see and and have a great connection with our faith and the elements here in the middle world, we are so blessed, so so blessed because they trust us.

SPEAKER_04 18:22

They do.

SPEAKER_02 18:23

You know, and they know that so many of our kin are mean and not even deliberately mean, just thoughtlessly mean.

SPEAKER_05 18:31

Thoughtless, absolutely. Now, something that I learned when I worked with you, um, that I had never heard anyone explain or express, and I've I've worked with a handful of shaman, and you started your fairy shamanism course with this practice called opening your ancient eyes.

Practice Opening Your Ancient Eyes

unknown 18:54

Yes.

SPEAKER_04 18:55

Yes.

SPEAKER_05 18:56

And it was simple and so wildly effective, and even being as sensitive as I am, and I've seen and interacted with fairies my whole life, you know, I I was shocked at how vivid it became after doing your practice a handful of times. So because at first you don't get a lot, it's it you just get little little tingles or whatever. But I did it every day for seven days straight. And at the end of the seventh day, oh I it was like you could see sparkles in the sky, you could really almost hear their music on the wind. It was so incredible. And I I just would really love if if you wouldn't mind sharing that practice with the listeners and viewers today, because being able to see fairies is so different than just blindly believing in an invisible imaginary friend.

SPEAKER_02 19:51

Absolutely. So, as our dear friend Rainbow said, you do have to practice, right? There's no getting out of that, and that is your biggest barrier. Oh, I tried it once. I tried it once. I tried it once, yeah. It didn't work. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So, first, I would like you to breathe into your belly. Fill up that creative center and let go. We'll do that two more times by the para three. Fill up your creative center, your belly. Receiving your breath, not taking it. And exhale. A third time, receive your breath from the universe. And as you exhale, feel the realms that you are connecting through all bodies of time and feel your way up to your heart center. If it helps to use your hands, connect them belly to heart. Now we're going to breathe into our heart three times, receiving your breath, inhalation and let it go through your mouth. Two more times. Inhale. Inhale connecting to the love of the universe. And on this exhalation, ah draw the creativity from your womb, your hara, the connection with the universe up to your third eye. And again, we're going to receive three breaths from the universe, receiving your breath, inhale. Close your eyes gently and exhale. Inhale and exhale.

SPEAKER_01 22:20

Inhale.

SPEAKER_02 22:24

And hold. And if you have your hands in front of your third eye, start to part them. And as you part them, open your eyes just a tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny amount. Looking through your eyelashes. Allow your hands to gently drop. Keep looking only through your eyelashes. Allow your gaze to wander through your eyelashes.

SPEAKER_01 23:05

It may seem dim. It may seem fluttery. You might start to see bands of light. Blues, greens, golds.

SPEAKER_02 23:26

Or you might just see one color. Right now I'm seeing a luminous silver. If you are feeling anything, be as an element, a colour, a twinkle in the star, a twinkle in your heart.

SPEAKER_01 23:49

Follow it through your ancient eyes. If you want to reach out a finger to touch it, see the band or the twinkle, the colour playing on your fingertips. Through your ancient eyes.

SPEAKER_02 24:20

What colour are your fingertips now? For many of you, they may have changed colour. They may be fading into nothing. As I'm speaking to you, mine are beginning to fade. If this is not happening for you, do not worry about it. Your experience is your experience stay with who you are. Especially if this is your first time. Keep peering through your ancient eyes, through your eyelashes. Be with it. Some of you may have found your hand has actually disappeared into infinity as just a vague outline. A presence. A beautiful presence. You feel the presence of your hand yet it is no longer a part of you.

SPEAKER_01 25:45

Breathe.

SPEAKER_02 25:51

And now open your hand to see if you can see through to infinity. Some of you may feel a vortex of light. And other of you might see just blindness, and others, you're still seeing the full face of your hand. Remember, this is an ancient practice, and it's called a practice for a very good reason.

SPEAKER_01 26:29

So wherever you are today, focus your attention on your intention.

SPEAKER_02 26:48

And now draw yourself back. Fold your hand up, closing out of the infinite realms. Back into this realm. Start to feel your hand as your physical presence. Bring your other hand to it and rub it gently to bring yourself back to now. And when you are ready, flick three times with your fingers and awaken your eyes into this reality. And if you have a sip of water, please take it. Wriggle your fingers and toes. Believing and knowing that this hand that you put in front of you disappears into infinity, into the other realms because it actually does. And you know it's there, but you can't physically see it. And when you open it up and you're in infinite realms, sometimes people will find that it's swirling, particularly with our magical beings, dragons, all kinds of wild, wild, wildness out there. Galaxies performing past lives, future lives. It can be a rolling vortex of so many things. It's a simple practice, and if you dare, as Rainbow did, you will find your body doesn't exist. It just is part of an infinite realm of wonder. We started this with a question about the different realms and where we all live and where people belong. We belong everywhere. We belong where we take ourselves, where we belong, and when we are feeling small and vowing, we belong where we take ourselves until we break ourselves out of that cocoon or trap. We belong everywhere and nowhere. And it doesn't matter whether it's the astroplanes, the planes, the acacia realms. And well, isn't it wild? When you can be, I was in a boat once, a rowing boat of all things, and we were asked to hit on the side boat, and the person that was behind us, he was delving into the acacia realms, and every one of us he told us our entire lives up until when he did not know us, and he told us every single major point of our lives and a few beyond. Like, okay, this is real. So we are everywhere and nowhere in answer to the rainbow.

SPEAKER_05 30:06

So let me let me get this straight. You just taught the viewers the main core message from The Matrix, which is there is no spoon. You you you remember, did you ever see The Matrix? Because it's a powerful movie, and that that scene where Neo is holding the spoon and he's like, How little girl are you bending it? And she's like, I'm not bending it because there is no spoon. And really, what working with the fairy realm helps you understand and recognize is that we are nowhere and everywhere, and there is no time, and there is no space, and there is no spoon, and there is no hand. And if you learn to just play in those vibrations and those feelings and those energies, and allow them to take you somewhere, which is what we were all discouraged as kids. You know, don't don't get get your head out of the clouds and and you know, you you're that's just your imaginary friend, like you're too old to have imaginary friends, you're too old to play pretend, but that's where this that's where real magic is, it sounds like absolutely that's where it is, and that's that's where we are.

SPEAKER_02 31:22

And and like and when we dare, it's all there waiting for us. We just have to, you know, like feel with you know, bring dream it into your creative sense or bring it to your heart, open your heart, open your third eye. You know, there's that other great one of your thinking cap.

SPEAKER_05 31:40

Yeah, you were you were show you had kind of talked to me about that. Would you mind sharing that practice? Because it sounds like that allowed viewers who haven't done a lot of fairy work to get in tune with their own ancestral fairy lineages and the fairies, you know, to actually like be able to communicate with them. And that that was a really cool practice

Practice The Thinking Cap Of Light

SPEAKER_05 32:01

you shared.

SPEAKER_02 32:01

So there's wonderful practice, and and you've all heard it. Put on your thinking cap. Right? Put on your thinking. Well, that actually comes from the ancient ways where we connected our third eye and our visual cortex in a band, beads of light, front and back, and then connected that down to our heart. It's a very simple practice. And so, wriggle my nose, get that ready. Because we also I also find it's like it's really important to breathe in the air where you are to really smell it and taste it and feel it, and that everything is working so well with us today. So come up, draw from the central town channel, so oops, so from your belly center. I like a lot of practices that connect our bellies and our heart, and come on up and rest here at your third eye. Start massaging around, you can close your eyes just to shut out the world that impacts us in so many ways. Look inside, and there's your third eye, and we are going to be open, and to do this, we are going to draw the bands of light. Slowly, you've been massaging your third eye. There's no tricks to it, just simply massage. It helps to open this ancient eye that's been closed for too long, and draw in a line with your fingers around the back of your head, and voila, you are here at your visual cortex. So the ancient ones all knew that there was a direct line from your third eye to the back to your visual cortex. Now join your third eye and visual cortex across the top of your head through your stargate. Draw a line with your fingers over the crown of your head. You can be either on your head or hovering above and feel your third eye. Now we're going to continue that. We are going to now massage our third eye again. We're going to draw beads of light around the back to your visual cortex, massaging that visual cortex, feeling it open. The cracks of light are bursting out, desperate to get out. Draw your visual cortex directly to your third eye here in the front. Really feeling now this thinking cap, these magic beads of light bursting out of your third eye. As you for the third time draw around to your visual cortex, smiling deep inside as you feel that light center opening, pouring light out the back of you, drawing now only one hand over to your third eye, the other still holding your visual cortex. Circle massage. And as you feel it, draw out, you'll feel your auric field expanding. If you're having trouble, if you don't have mobility, that's no barrier. Think it, just dream it, feel it energetically. It's just as real as touch. When you're feeling you're at your aura's edge, just gently feel all the way around your head. Feel this golden, gold, and helmet, these beads of light. Wow, just beautiful. Now coming around. I hope I'm not moving too fast for you around your ears, draw like a bonnet string down to your heart. And you can sit here in Anjali Mudra or place your hands over your whole heart chakra, it doesn't matter.

SPEAKER_01 36:41

And when you're settled in your heart, feel the bands moving out deep into your auric field, and feel the vibration of that.

SPEAKER_02 36:58

And as you feel that vibration, allow your hands or your imagination to flutter all around. This beautiful golden orbs of light, your thinking cap, which connect your visual cortex, your third eye, and your heart.

SPEAKER_01 37:25

Feel it.

SPEAKER_02 37:29

And now know that from your heart, when you were an embryo, the first connection was not heart to mind, it was heart to tongue. That's why we focus on the ear. The ancient, ancient connections of our tongue. The true messenger of our heart. So that is why we're thinking for me.

SPEAKER_05 38:51

Especially when you were talking about how our first connection to this physical body was our tongue and and our heart. And it's so common right now with a lot of the clients I've been working with and in a lot of my collective messages that I've been sharing, how we are being silenced in so many ways. And I I get I don't know if they're I you know, I don't like to label things but spiritual attacks, you know, but I get pain from my ears down into here so often, but I I do a lot of like chakra opening and clearing, and but it's I get clients who can't speak their truth, who don't even they have it's almost like being beheaded, like they cannot feel their own heart truth at all. There's so many people who can't visualize, there are so many people who don't know how to feel, and they claim that they this is just how they've always been. And it's shocking to me because it seems as if almost like humans have been like almost attacked, uh like our our ability to connect to source, our ability to connect with these other realms has been attacked at such a a core place.

SPEAKER_02 40:14

Yeah, and you're right, you know, you head they are headless, and sometimes we are too because we're cut off from our truth. And you know, we we see them all the time. People who are literally just talking heads, and like there used to be a heart there somewhere.

SPEAKER_05 40:32

Yeah, yeah, and so it's really like when you when you w draw the thinking cap and you're you're showing it, it almost to me looks like an iridescent like jellyfish with like pearls dripple dripping down, right? And once once we had completed the cap and we brought it down to my heart, and you were talking about the light of source of God coming in and like filling us up, right at that moment I felt that whomever is doing this with us, we were all being like anointed with like a royal, like this like very royal energy of like we were being like christened. I don't I don't know how to explain it, but it it felt like like either the fairies or source was just like blessing us all for taking the time to make you know to to do that practice because I think you had said that that was a really ancient practice that your grandmother had passed to you, right?

SPEAKER_02 41:34

Yes, yes, yes.

SPEAKER_05 41:36

So that was probably carried into your family line from like like centuries ago, because that's that was that the potency of that as someone who can feel energy really strong, like that, you are opening different realms when you're doing that practice, and I can I can feel them like doors like clock, clock, clock, clock, clock. It's a really like that's a very, very powerful practice you just shared with all of the viewers and myself. And I just want to thank you so much for taking us through it. It was really beautiful.

SPEAKER_02 42:10

I hope that nothing is nothing is that by the way, viewers, nothing scripted between us, it's just rolling where it's just going where it's just going wherever it wants to go.

Breathwork Slowness And Body Wisdom

SPEAKER_02 42:22

So I I'm I'm glad you enjoyed it because I I love to share because if we don't share, we die. And you know, fairies have had a tough time of it, and it's up to all of us to, you know, we know, right? We know that the more we breathe, the more we we receive. And that's another people. You know, so so many people today they don't breathe, they do this little shallow stuff in in you know, maybe this much at the top of their lungs, yeah, and you you actually say to them, you know, like inhale, and you're like no inhale and exhale you bring in, let go, bring in, let go. It's a primal system for us, this honouring the breath, and you know, if and receiving your breath, don't take it. Like that's that's one of the things that annoys me because we humans have taken too much, yes, and the element of air is our first friend, right? Like you come out, we've both given birth, it's such a magical for me. It was just the most powerful, magical, amazing experiences of my life were giving birth to my two beautiful sons. And and and I just remember that that that first moment where they received their breath and they were fully in this realm. We receive it. The element of energy. Gives it freely to us. We poison it and we do all kinds of ratchet things to it. Excuse me for swearing. But it's given. So don't take, receive. And receive with gratitude. And again, we spoke earlier about slowing down. Both of us have had periods in our lives where we've been run off our feet or we've been, you know, I had to walk slowly to not be like my mother. But then, you know, I had I've had times when I've been out, particularly on country with our Australian Aborigines, out very, very remote. You can look it up on a map somewhere in between Leonora and Laverton, two dots in Western Australia. They're two tiny, tiny little Aboriginal settlements. And I thought it was hotter than Hades out there. And I thought I was walking like a snail. And this beautiful, beautiful, serene woman is going, Why are you running? Like I'm not. She went, Why are you running? And I'm like, I'm walking slowly. And she went, No, you can't hear anything at that pace. And she had the most beautiful lilting walk, like she glided. And so I'm then trying to follow her. And then she's going, Okay, you're nearly getting there. Because they're very, you know, they know, and they're very much, we are your teacher. When you go there with an open heart to learn, if you don't go there with an open heart, they don't even speak to you, nor should they. And so you know, I had to get over the it was extremely hot. I was menopausal. I don't like the heat, but I wanted to know what this woman knew. I wanted to feel the country, and so I took up her lilt and slowly, and she's going, you're not breathing. Oh shit, I wasn't either because I was so hot, I was gasping. I say, okay, sorry. And I started to breathe slowly, and then my body temperature regulated. I wasn't hot anymore, I wasn't sweating anymore. I was still out in 40 plus, that's 40 Celsius, by the way, which is about 105, 106 in Fahrenheit. There's not a blade of grass in anywhere, it's just hot, but my body started to regulate, and I'm walking. I had to take my shoes off too, which was terrible because the ground was hot. And my feet started wasn't hot anymore. And then she liked getting, she knew it. She was like, Oh, you're starting to get it. And I was still looking for the real message of it, but the absolute message was slow down and your environment will be at peace with you. When you are not at peace with your environment, how can it be at peace with you? So that was I don't recommend you go out into the desert into a 170-degree, 107-degree heat, barefoot with no shade, and walk by the way. I did that with an elder of the community, and uh I went there thinking that I was going to learn true magic. Like I'm really going to get to the guts of what's going on and what's amazing about people. And I learned how to thermoregulate by breathing and walking slowly, which of course is an amazing gift, but I actually left there feeling a bit, oh, she didn't show me any ceremony. I felt a bit heaved.

SPEAKER_05 48:01

But I got that that is magic because so there's I I I think it's very funny that right now I'm just being shown like different book references or movie references. So I had the The Matrix one earlier, right?

SPEAKER_04 48:15

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 48:16

And right now there's this other reference to this kid's book called Molly Moon and the Book of Hypnotism or something like that. And in that book, in one of the books, because there were a couple of them, Molly Moon, she can stop time or something. And she learns how to regulate her the temperature of her body through her breath and through visualizing. Um, because when you slow when you stop time, um, everything is it's so cold. It is like inhumanly cold. And so she had to learn how to like stop her her body and get it like cold enough so that she could exist in this time zone, right?

SPEAKER_01 48:57

Yep.

SPEAKER_05 48:57

And so she thought to herself, I am an ice cube, and she like believed that she like she had to believe herself, she had to slow down her thinking, she had to like visualize being an ice cube and what being an ice cube would feel like. And if you are an ice cube, then even just being in room temperature would be sweltering hot to you, so hot that you're literally melting away. And so she visualized this, and through this visualization, she was able to survive in this timeless zone by becoming just as cold as the terrain she was around. And what you're demonstrating through that lesson that the those elders taught you is they showed you how humans have adapted through our ability to become the climate, to like turn into like the equal frequency of our climate. That is a very powerful gift because I don't believe that if our civilization really did like lose technology, we lost connection to modern society, if everything shut down, I don't think a lot of humans would have the capacity to deal with an ice age or the capacity to deal with some kind of solar flare that made everything like 15, 20, 30 degrees hotter. But you would, you'd be fine, and everybody watching this show would be too.

SPEAKER_02 50:27

They would be because they know that they can, and uh yeah, so seriously, I went there thinking I was going to learn ceremony and all cool all quite the new cool tricks, but that was the lesson, and um you know powerful lesson, it was really powerful.

SPEAKER_03 50:42

But it I at the time I was like it took it took until it took until later that that I was grateful for it. It's a white person, right? You want fireworks. Are you all about fireworks?

SPEAKER_05 51:00

I have learned that some of the most powerful magic in this world is the simplest and most times is taken for granted the most.

SPEAKER_02 51:10

Absolutely. Yeah, absolutely. Couldn't agree with you more, my dear sister. Could not agree more.

Sweden Elves And Reciprocal Living

SPEAKER_05 51:17

I know you've told me um in our correspondences that you've traveled like all over the world to like meet different fairies and like learn from their cultures and such. Do you have any interesting stories about fairies from other regions and continents? You you told us a little bit about your Australian fairy friends, but are there any other stories of your worldly travels of different Fae?

SPEAKER_02 51:45

Yeah, I have I have the absolute honor. I'm I'm married to a Swede. I got a meatball in my sweet meatball because he's very delicious and yummy. That's cute. You know, love making love with him. Even after 17 years, it's wild and wonderful. So we get to go to Sweden, and they, despite the technology, live in a more real world than we do. They still hunt, they still gather. You know, during the mushroom season, during the berry season, there are they are out combing the countryside, being with nature. And so I have gotten to both way, way up north and down south where my husband is from. I've been able to go out into the woods and to sit. And I did a practice one night, it's called sitting out, where you sit out all night long. Naturally, I chose to sit out when we only have one hour of night time because I'm white and I'm from Western Australia, and I thought I didn't think I could sit there all night in the dark. I thought that that would freak me out. Um, but I chose to sit for just an hour in darkness, and I was sitting by a river, and it's beautiful, it's warm, and I could really feel like the forest, and there are wolves, and people were going, You're crazy, you shouldn't be sitting out, you should not do this practice. The wolves will get you, and I'm like, the wolf's my totem animal.

SPEAKER_03 53:29

I hope they get me. I hope they get me.

SPEAKER_02 53:37

And I had the most beautiful, I described them as you know the little elves, the elves of Scandinavia. And they're the most delightful, empathetic, and they all came and they were sitting with me. And so then it was like, and then one of them said to me, You should have done this all night long, you should need to come back when we've got a few more hours of darkness, and we'll we'll play this game again. And so then I'm I'm just doing my hour, because that's the only dark we had, because it was 24 hours sunlight nearly, and I had the most enchanting. They were all just chattering. I could understand them even though they weren't speaking English or Swedish, which I I cruelly monster their language, and I feel completely entitled to, and the Swedish language that is, not the fairy language. And they were like the country. They were gentle there, and they were telling me that all the the gathers, the hunters, the gatherers, because the hunters there do not take, they don't hunt for sport. They hunt because they are going to use every part of that animal, including the skin. I even have an orthopaedic surgeon friend there. You know, he goes out once a year, he hunts, but he used that like the skin he makes, uh he gives to a local Sami for uh to make frame drums, and he gets the meat butchered, and that is meat for his family for most of the year.

SPEAKER_04 55:17

Wow.

SPEAKER_02 55:18

So they don't take, it's they're very reciprocal. And the same as the mushroom gatherers, they never take them all because they must leave the spores for the following year. And so like the elves were telling me that they work with the people and they're always walking with them, and they're telling them not, no, no, no, don't harvest there. We need that for the next no, that's not strong enough. You need to, and they they they said how they direct, they were just full of pushing us around to where we ought to be when they are out hunting and gathering. And he said, because they were talking about how because the people are more elemental, they are more connected to the land, they are easier to direct than somebody like me, for example, who you know wasn't didn't even know she was being taught a lesson out in the out back of Western Australia until later. Um, and they were so just so profound and gentle. And sadly, I haven't gotten back to go out and sit for seven hours or eight hours because we always go during the summertime where we have very little summer to be able to sit out.

SPEAKER_05 56:36

We should go because I'm I'm Swedish. I've never been anywhere but the United States. I want to go sit in in the forest with you to be the fairy. Ah, do we need to spinsk? Yes, let's go, let's go sit with the little fairy people, let's play with them.

SPEAKER_02 56:54

We'll play the outside game. Yeah, their elven law is phenomenal, it's so wealthy. And when you go up north and you sit with the Sami people uh who are their uh indigenous, their First Nations people, they have not been treated very well by Sweden, by the way, but they have a lot more rights than our Australian Aboriginals have, and probably more rights, I think, than most of your um your First Nations people, your Indians do in um uh in the United States, but still they're not treated as well as they should be. Um, if you can get to Sweden and spend time up north, I'm doing a 10-day retreat next year right up on the border of Finland and Norway, which I'm very much looking forward to.

SPEAKER_05 57:47

You hear that, all of you out there, you guys should sign up because I I'm gonna try and be there. You send me that information, I'm gonna drop it in. You guys can can check it out. You you save you saved me a spot, okay.

SPEAKER_02 58:01

Yeah, and so like I've been talking to them. I found it on a retreat place and it was incredibly cheap. And they went, well, no one wants to come up here. And if we tell them it's about Sami and Shamanism, nobody will come. So we made it look like a bit of a yogurty thing, but it's not really.

SPEAKER_05 58:17

I will be there. I want to learn shaman things.

SPEAKER_02 58:21

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So pretty cool. That's my that's on my agenda to reconnect for next year. So um Scotland. When we're walking the high mountains of Scotland with my beautiful Swedish meeple. I would like to go into Shadow. I had these uh that gnome type, I can only describe them as gnome-like, about half our height, just kind of would come out and peek out from out behind the the trees and and and they go, and then you go, hi, how are you? And they they'd come back and you go, okay, friend, not foe. And then they'd come back out. They were very, very curious about you because the area that we were we were in, not too many people walk in. They they go and that just looks a bit too difficult, so we'll we'll just just stick to the flatlands. But if you go and you get to walk in the mountains, particularly on the west side, I know the like the fairy were so so strong there, or the the gnomes. Um, and of course, you the selkie. I know that you you relate very well to Selkie waters, yeah. Um again in the waters there on the eastern side, there was huge, huge areas of water where you really felt the Selkie, and you you just wanted to sit by the water and hope. I never did, but just hope that you would would see. But of course, I was there in the day, and I think they would rather meet at us at uh sunrise.

Selkies Sharks And Ocean Curiosity

SPEAKER_05 59:54

I have to tell a story. I actually have I've met a Selkie. Um I went, okay, so it it was in a place you wouldn't actually think you'd see a Selkie. I was visiting California because my I grew up in California, and my mom and my daughters, and me and my current boyfriend, we all went to Ventura Beach, and I love Ventura Beach because it's one of the kind of like untouched beach areas of Southern California. And we my my whole family had posted up on on the shore, and my boyfriend was like building a giant dragon in the sand. Seriously, I don't I made a tiny one and he was like and then he built a giant dragon. I was like, that is so crazy. And then I I like was called, like called into the water. I was like, I I'm gonna go in the water now, and they're like, it's too cold, don't go out there. I was like, Oh no, no, no, I'm fine. And I went out, I went beyond all of the waves, as you know, you have to to meet a selfie. And I went out and I just was floating, you know. I don't so I have this weird thing. I don't know where I learned it, but I know how to float like like a seal, like without kicking your feet or moving, and just like floating there. And I was just floating there, and I had my head up and I was like, I was like looking around and I saw one pop up, and it was it was in its seal four, and I started speaking, so I know like a bunch of different dialects of light language, which can also be equated to like fairy languages, it's like spirit languages, right? So I know a bunch of different ones, and I know some merfolk ones, but just as I saw that Selkie come up, I started speaking a new new one that I hadn't heard yet. I was like, okay, I'm gonna just talk it. So I'm talking to it, and it popped down. I was like, oh, I scared it away, and then it popped up so close, I could almost touch it. I was like, and I could hear in my head, it's like, hi, it's so it's been so long since I've met a human who can interact with me. I was like, oh my god, yes, and I was just floating in the water, like super excited. And I I was out there for a really long time, just like telepathically talking to this, and I kept like yelling at it when it would like move away from me. I was like, no, no, no, come back, and it would come back. It would like play with me because it would pop down and it would pop up and it would pop down and it would pop up and it would just stare at me and we'd be like this, right across from each other. And I'm pretty certain it was a Selkie because after I got done talking to my my my boyfriend's calling me, he's like, Hey, it's it we're gonna eat lunch now, you gotta come in. And I like waved to it, and it had a human arm that came up and waved back at me, and I was like, it's like okay, nice to see you goodbye. And I like swam back to shore. This was just like a year ago, but it was so special. I was like, did you see, did you see the seal? And my boyfriend's like, yeah, you got really far out there. How did you do that? It's like, I just I don't know. I went out there and just floated. But beautiful. I I think that's something a lot of people if you saw a seal out there, you wouldn't think it's a fairy, you just think it's a seal. And then so many people are afraid of seals. They're like, the seal's gonna bite me. It's got vicious teeth or something, it's a vicious wild animal. And um, I told my daughters, it's like, you know, unless you're an adult, maybe don't swim beyond the waves. But if you're an adult and you know how to swim, um, you can go play with the animals. But that's a different story. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:03:39

Yes, yeah, yeah, be careful.

SPEAKER_05 1:03:41

Be careful. I'm that weirdo that likes to go and talk to the weird ocean little animals and find out that they're not actually animals, that they're actually fairies in disguise.

SPEAKER_02 1:03:52

We have a a little brown shark, but I'm I absolutely love these sharks. They're called gray nurse sharks. They've got little whiskers. Oh cute. They're so cute, and they're just so drop dead cute. And they're so curious about us. And they're so they like they're so, you know, ah, and they talk, they literally talk to you when you swim past them if you dare to notice them. But most of us here in Australia are so scared of sharks that we think it's going to eat them. And we're like, no, it's not. They just want they just come up to play with you. No, they don't, they're just curious. They're just curious, and they come up with their little whiskers and so cute.

SPEAKER_05 1:04:40

So you I've actually heard sharks are almost like giant water dogs. That even the more vicious kinds of sharks are really quite docile unless they are starving or unless you have like if you happen to have a cut or something, then you're kind of in trouble. But yeah, most of the time they're very they're not they're not there to hurt you. If you feel fear, they're going to go after you because just like fairies, they feel that fear and they're like, oh, find the bigger one.

SPEAKER_02 1:05:14

I'll win this game. Yeah, absolutely. There will be far more eaten than far more people eaten by them if they really did mean us harm. So I just think that until a shark's able to walk up to the front door and knock on it, I I'm not going to worry about them.

SPEAKER_05 1:05:33

Do you do you think they would be trying to like sell us uh shark Jesus? Oh, shark Jesus. You know, they walk up to the door and they knock and they're like, Would you like to hear about our Lord and Savior, Shark Jesus?

SPEAKER_02 1:05:53

We had a lot of religious door knockers in our area, um, Seventh day Adventist and the Mormons. And one other mob, I can't remember who knows. Olders Witnesses? Used to knock on the door a lot.

Witch Family Tales And Closing Blessing

SPEAKER_02 1:06:09

And my sons used to have a broomstick, like an old-fashioned one, which I which bought as a joke. And they would open the door and they would go, Our mother's a witch. And they get the bro the broomstick. And people would just run. Very funny. And they still tell funny stories about growing up with their mother and you know how they would use my witchiness to to um scare people away.

SPEAKER_05 1:06:40

And then that's very funny. My my daughters embrace like one of my daughters brought her little friend over um for like a play date sleepover thing. And her mom knows what I do, and she's you know, she's like, You have a good heart. I'm not afraid of what it whatever you do. And she's she's a Christian. And um her daughter came over and she was like, Christy says that you do magic for money. And I was like, well, not really, but kind of, yeah. Let's what what what are you getting at here? And she's like, I want you to do magic for me. And I was like, You want a session? And she was like, Yes. And I was like, okay. So I took her through kind of how my sessions go, which is I asked her what her her one wish was, because you kind of have to be like, hey, what's your goal, right? What's your goal for today? And the little girl was like, Oh yeah, I I really want to be able to do this. And I was like, okay, that's a cool goal. And I put her on my table and was like, okay, we're gonna do some magical magical things and see what's going on. And I think what she had really wanted to do was I can't really remember it. I know what I ended up doing. I had to extract a blockage out of her heart chakra, and she wasn't able to do this kind of magical thing that she really, really wanted to do because there was this blockage. And so I pulled the stuff out, I done some shamanic drumming to like for me to go do a soul retrieval for this little girl, and I like brought her soul back, and I drummed it in, I rattled it in, I did what is necessary, and then when we were done, I sat her up and I was like, Okay, how are you feeling? She's like, I feel so much bigger, and I was like, that's great to hear, and she's like, That was really cool, that's not what I thought it would be. I thought there would be like magic to see, but that was still really cool, and I do feel I feel different. I don't know what it means, but it I feel different. And ever since she has legitimately been like doing magic with my daughter at school, they've got like a little club, they do magic, and and she's convinced now. She's like, Yes, this is this is I make potions now, and I'm like, great, I'm I'm happy for you guys. But I just thought it was so cute. My daughter was so proud of me that she went and told her little friend and had her come over for a session. Yeah. I think that's a beautiful story. Thank you so much for your time. And uh, if if you have anything else beyond your workshop that you're going to be doing in Finland next year, what please let me know. Tell tell the viewers.

SPEAKER_02 1:09:23

Well, yeah, I'm just having a little bit of a quiet time at the moment because I've just become a grandmother. So it's a whole new world to to uh breathe some magic into. Um so yeah, I'll I'll still be sending out my usual notices and bits and pieces, but for now, no new courses that are that I'm imagining, so I'm just being enjoying I love that.

SPEAKER_05 1:09:54

Well, for all of you out there that are interested in working with Sharon, I do have her class that I took the fairy shaman from, and I will link her courses in the bio. And um, if you have a link for your trip that you'd like to share with me, I will also include that in the bio. I will go and dig it out for you.

SPEAKER_02 1:10:19

But for now, breathing peace and magic everywhere. Thank you so much. From my art to yours. Thank you.

SPEAKER_00 1:11:29

Awaken, rise anew. The golden dawn rises with you. The time is now. Awaken, transform through breath, let yourself feel the eternal rhythm, the rhythm of the cosmos, the rhythm inside your heart. You are the cosmic cords, vibrating life force, living light, breathing, carved from the stars. You are the living prophecy. Breathe. Breathe deep in the center of your heart. There, there you will find truth awaiting you. In the silence, you will find the key to remember who you are and open each eyes, I think, and it's a little bit more than a little bit. Deep in the center of your heart. The spirals of time open. Breathe in all that is you. Bring back all that was, all that is, all that was thought to be forgotten. You are on the shores of waking consciousness, consciousness, consciousness, consciousness. Evoke the knowing, evoke and embody the truth of every single cell of life that you are and always have been and always will be. Bring your mind in the center of your heart. Breathe, breathe love, embody love, real love for yourself, for others, and the source of all existence. There is only love, and love is enough. Deep in the center of your heart, you will find a truth awaiting you. In the silence, you will find a key to remember who you are and open ancient eye.
