Waking Dream: Beam

The last work I did with Sabine and her Photron device was a visit to the “Cloud Beings of the Star Nations.” During that session she told me about arriving in Santa Fe in August of 1987, relocating from Northern California. She had not heard of the Harmonic Convergence until arriving in town, the same as I. Driving in from the west, she observed a huge, vertical rainbow hovering above Santa Fe. A stripe of colored light. My precognitive dream of the Convergence had been of a giant energy beam piercing the earth. My vision, which I had shared in an early email, seems to have spoken to her.

My 2014 flight home from Santa Fe was on a very overcast Monday. Thunderclouds were building on top of the Sandia and Sangre de Christo mountains. Our pilot announced that we should remain seated, as we could encounter turbulence.

I am a fretful flyer on clear days, so I composed a half-serious internal prayer to the Cloud Beings for safe passage. I watched from my window seat as the plane climbed and climbed into the purple thunderheads. Then I looked down. A huge, horizontal rainbow stripe lay across the side of a mountain. A brilliant blanket of colored light. The flight was completely calm, with no turbulence at all.

Day notes:

On my trip to Santa Fe two years ago, my friend Anne and I were returning from visiting another sculptor in Cuba, New Mexico. We saw a stunning triple rainbow arc above Santa Fe as we drove in from the west.
