An ACIM-Spiritual Astrology-themed         GREAT SOUTHWEST      SPIRIT-QUEST 

Chaco Canyon - Chimney Rock - Canyon de Chelly    

 

Here's a great opportunity to visit great southwestern landmarks considered sacred by the Hopi and Navajo. Most likely you'll feel the same way after you experience these ancient sites. Chaco Canyon, located in northwestern New Mexico south, south east of Farmington, is one of the rare sites of the world where the wise men of their day  tracked the solar AND lunar cycles. Chaco was home to over 30,000 souls at certain times of the year. Roads were built radiating from the Canyon seemingly to nowhere. You'll have the opportunity to sleep at the area campsite and experience the vibrations from the ground as well as the starry, unpolluted, skies above. What did these ancients know then that has not been passed on to the masses. Definitely a chance for your intuitional self to shine.

After a night  in the canyon and exploring the ruins we'll be traveling north to Chimney Rock just over the border in Colorado. At this location, the ancients established solstice markers and honored the extreme lunar cycle by building a pueblo where by the moon would be rising between the two spires at the top of the mountain for a period of about three years out of the 18.6 lunar cycle. We'll be staying within a stone's throw of the Piedra River or Navajo Resevoir. This is an area where the citizens of the day hunted and farmed a thousand years ago. Some have labeled Chimney Rock as a masculine vortex.  Where is a feminine vortex you say? Just 17 miles east at Pagosa Springs. . We'll set aside a few hours for those who would like to take a dip in the mineral hot springs.

Canyon de Chelly, one of the most beautiful places on  earth will be the final stop of our spirit-quest trinity. A sunrise observance will take place at Spider Rock prior to our return to the Valley of the Sun. A Course in Miracles theme together with Spiritual Astrology  be served as soul food along the trek with the beautiful earth scenery as a backdrop.

Tentative schedule
