Book 25
A Journey to the Sun

Of all of the journeys that Maria took to the etheric retreats, Maria remembered one journey in particular that was most glorious and extraordinary. Archangel Michael had come while she had fallen asleep and told her he would take her with the Archeia Holy Amethyst to the Temple of the Sun of Helios and Vesta.

Holy Amethyst approached Maria and Archangel Michael with her sheer, sparkling violet and periwinkle wings. Her beautiful gown was woven with platinum threads and amethyst flowers.

 

 

“I come to you in the flame of the Royal Mother,” said Holy Amethyst, “in a chariot of violet fire. Shall you step in with me? For we shall ascend to the heights of the sun, and our wings shall not melt. They have been fashioned of burnished gold and tried in the very heart fires of Helios and Vesta.”

“Yes,” said Maria. “I am ready,” as she entered the chariot of violet fire.

 

Maria and Archangel Michael and Holy Amethyst ascended over the tree tops and clouds and effluvia of the air. She could see the chariot rising higher and higher and entering the deepest blue of stellar space.

She was filled with the deepest understanding that God is everywhere, as she observed the celestial hues and angelic choirs and elementals who serve the outer reaches of space. She remembered the decree of the Goddess of Purity. “Sharing God and joyous prayer—beyond the Earth in outer space, expand the power of cosmic grace. Our God is there and everywhere, and where I AM, O thou art too, to increase awareness of thy truth and show me in my I AM eye, the holy beauty of the sky.”

 

 

 

Now, as the chariot drew closer to Helios and Vesta, Maria was surprised to see that there was not greater heat, but simply greater light with coolness and the delight of approaching God.

The chariot entered the sun according to spirals that formed cosmic highways for billions of lifewaves, angels and Elohim, on a pathway of golden pink light.

Now, the angels who had guided the chariot, brought them to a place of rest. They disembarked and walked the pathway to the inner temple and to the Great Throne Room.

Maria's heart was leaping with the holy expectancy and joy of meeting her Father-Mother God again. She could hear the anthem of freedom that was playing on the trumpets of the mighty Seraphim and Cherubim. Flowers of such great beauty that she had never seen before were all around her, and crystal lights shining in every direction.

 

Maria was coming to the very heart of hearts, the very heart of all beingness. She entered a golden stairway, and took her sandals off from her feet, because she was on holy ground. Then, she walked down a long corridor covered by a golden-pink flame pulsing beneath her feet. She could see standing in the center of the Sun, our beloved Father Mother God—twin flames of pink and gold, standing arms outstretched.

“Welcome, child of the light,” said Helios and Vesta. “Maria, we are so happy you are here.” Maria approached the arms of Helios and Vesta and received the kiss of Father-Mother God placed upon her forehead.

 

 

“Thank you for shining for us every day,” she said. Other children were gathered too, who had come on other chariots. They kneeled in utter adoration to receive the blessing of the infinite One.
“Please remember us each day by giving this little prayer when you see us,” said Helios and Vesta:

“O Mighty Presence of God I AM, in and behind the Sun,
I welcome thy light which floods all the earth,
Into my life, into my mind, into my spirit, into my soul.
Radiate and blaze forth thy Light!
Break the bonds of darkness and superstition!
Charge me with the great clearness of Thy white fire radiance
I AM thy child and each day I shall become more of thy manifestation.”

 

Maria then returned to the flaming violet flame chariot, and slowly returned to her bed and to her outer waking consciousness.

 

 

And what was anchored in Maria's heart that night for all eternity, was the music of O Sole Mio, with the most simple and powerful promise:

O my Father, O my Mother, I AM coming home.
