Stargate Meditation

Stargates are geometric structures that have existed for eons and function as inter-dimensional doorways through time and space.
The Stargate Project started in Colorado, Maui, and Europe in the early 1990’s. Tragom joined the Project in Zurich in 1994, and became a certificated facilitator two years later.
The Project built Stargates in various sizes. The first structures were built of copper and large enough for 4 people to sit inside. Second generation structures were gold-plated and small enough to sit on a tabletop. Eventually, the facilitators realized stargates do not require physical form to function.
 Stargate meditation helps us experience energy and new information flowing through our bodies

Essential oils are, “highly aromatic substances made in plants by  special cells but at this stage the material is not yet an essential  oil, but is called an essence. It becomes an essential oil only after it  has been extracted by distillation.”

Essential oils embody the plants from which they are extracted from  in a number of ways: Chemically, physically, aromatically, and  spiritually. Let’s break down each of those concepts briefly:

Chemically: Essential oils are a complex make-up of volatile  chemical components. These include, but are not limited to, phenols,  alcohols, aldehydes, and esters. Each chemical component contributes to  the overall therapeutic effect of the essential oil. An essential oil’s  chemical make-up may vary from the plant from which it was extracted  from due to its method of extraction; for example, distillation vs.  carbon dioxide extraction vs. expression.

Physically: Factors such as environment, altitude at which  the plant was grown at, geographical location, time and method of  harvesting of the plant can alter the chemical components of the final  essential oil.

Aromatically: The aroma of an essential oil may not resemble  the aroma of the plant as closely as you think because of the  influences mentioned above.  However, a true essential oil should be  subtle in aroma (unlike its synthetic counterpart) and remind you in  some part of the plant from which it was extracted from. Descriptors for  aromas of essential oils are vast but include minty, citrus, floral,  balsamic, green, earthy, and woody.

Spiritually: Ancient people, and through to Medieval times,  believed in the spiritual power of plants, rather than just the chemical  breakdown of its healing components. Each plant had a spiritual healing  element. For example, the plant rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) was used in Medieval times to drive out evil spirits.2 A sprig of rosemary, and other such plants, were often hung or planted near the door of the home to protect its inhabitants.

Although the Western world has for the most part now separated itself  from these beliefs, aromatherapy practitioners often incorporate the  spiritual aspects of the plant into their work with essential oils,  depending upon which plant the essential oil was extracted from.

Essential oils are powerful tools for the aromatherapy practitioner.
