It’s been an interesting time recently—or perhaps I should say that time itself has been interesting recently? Over the past week, it’s felt to me as though there is not quite enough of it to attend to all the different things I wish to complete. Between personal admin tasks, the goals that I’ve set for myself, my daily responsibilities, staying updated on the state of the world, and the creative pursuits which I would like to spend time doing, it feels more and more impossible to take a breath. I’ve heard that others are feeling the same. Are you, too? Let’s all take a collective breath here, together.

In a conversation with one of the wonderful women joining us on both of our spring retreats, (we’ll call her M.P.), she spoke about something she had noted during the writing segment of one of our Quanta Circles some time ago. In the passage, M.P. described the motion of a spirograph, and how it retraces the same lines in order to create the final design. She said she had written, “It is beautiful and necessary to go over the same points and loop back over on yourself; that this can push you to higher evolution.” As she was relaying this to me, I recognized how the phenomenon she described was occurring in my own life.

Not only does it seem as though there is less time in the day than there used to be, but it also feels as though the normally firm boundary between the past and the present has become somewhat gummy. At intermittent times I have felt nearer to a younger version of myself than who I am today. Perhaps this is not an unusual experience, but it seems to have been happening with greater frequency. I love and cherish the past iterations of who I have been, but I have learned and grown with experience since then. When I find myself retracing old steps, I have the benefit of perspective and knowledge. I am able to see the patterns more clearly for what they are and change my trajectory towards evolution rather than repetition.

Spirographs patterns and time loops.

M.P. had also been experiencing the benefit of perspective and time working in conjunction. She’d had a hugely positive life shift and after her Quanta Circle in January, she felt compelled to review her work with Jane’s Dancing Hands. She searched for her “The Book of You” which all participants write during the Conversation with Source series, and then was moved to peruse her old journals from earlier Quanta Circles. Some passages leapt off the page. M.P. told me about overlapping information she received during both a Quanta Circle and while on our Aloha Rising Retreat, events many months apart in 2022, that remarkably danced together and are re-emerging here in 2024.  It seems seeds had been planted in the retreat and the Quanta Circle all that time ago, but some of the blooms didn’t burst forth until just last week. In a piece of automatic writing from that Quanta Circle nearly a year and a half ago, amongst many other notes, she’d scribbled: ‘“Volume 11, page 67.”  It was set apart on the page between other more complete thoughts, but on its own hadn’t made much sense at the time.

M.P felt moved to reach out to R.L., another recurring Quanta participant she’d met in our online dances but with whom she deeply bonded with great joy and levity on the Aloha Rising Retreat. R.L.., whose own visions in Quanta often dovetail with M.P.’s, was, as always, supportive. After their chat, M.P. felt Source encourage her to pursue searching the why of “Volume 11, page 67.” Lo and behold, like tumblers in the Quanta field combination lock, when M.P searched, a top result of her internet googling unlocked three words: “Edinburgh, Dublin, London,” the exact order of the main cities we’ll be visiting on our Magical Isles Retreat this coming May. We’re all a little blown away by this: A vision that was nudged to revisit in the January Quanta Circle was something that M.P. had numerically “seen” sixteen months earlier, even though Mum had not yet shared the possibility of Ireland or London as an addition to her Scotland Retreat until two months ago and hadn’t made the tiny London leg an official add-on until a month ago.

Similarly, M.P. had transcribed and shared a vision indicating a theme of rebirth with R.L. in that Quanta Circle in 2022. Within that space, they had both discussed the first retreat to Scotland in 2019, and M.P. had mentioned to R.L. how pivotal that retreat had been in her life. During the Quanta Circle in January, R.L., among many visions she received, had seen a bright peacock*. When Mum was searching for lodging in Scotland while simultaneously texting with M.L. in real time, funnily enough, the castle that appeared on the booking site was full of peacock art! And the next day when Mum was speaking to her best friend in LA, Mum’s best friend gave her a glimpse of the home she was visiting and what was behind her and in nearly every room as she strolled around? Peacocks! Peacock wallpaper, peacock sculpture, peacock rod iron, a stuffed peacock and golden peacock scones. After M.L. relayed this back to R.L. the signs were clear. Now, they will both be joining us in the UK and Ireland for more revelations.

((The story of M.P & R.L. continues, and we’ll share in our next newsletter more of how participants in our Sparkling Circle often bond and begin supporting one another in and out of circles, in the 3D and beyond.))

On Timing

Over the course of our chat, M.P. spoke of a couple of times in which she had felt or known on a deeper level that she wasn’t fully prepared for the information or the change that would be coming through. The first time this occurred was when she first purchased tickets but ended up not attending her first JANE’s Dancing Hands Circle in Texas. But she said that as soon as she attended the first JDH Circle, her life quickly changed direction to follow a new course that was more aligned with her best and highest good. M.P. feels that she wouldn’t have been ready for this to happen if she had attended the first circle, and that it all happened in the perfect timing. The second time that she now realises that she wasn’t fully prepared to understand was with the information that was delivered in 2020/2021 when she was going through the Conversations with Source Course. She relayed, “I was not (quite) ready. I wasn’t in the proper state of mind. I wanted to be there for Conversations with Source (and was)—I definitely got meaning out of it. I got comfort out of it during Covid. It was a communion, a connection, but mentally, emotionally, spiritually, physically… I just was not in a place really to absorb it all. And I knew it and I felt it and it kind of made me sad, but I also knew that this was a fabulous community, and I wanted to stay connected to Jane.” This is what Mum would call foundational work for the structure and knowledge ahead.

But perhaps the most interesting Cosmic winks in time for M.P. was a little over a year ago. She had been unable to watch one of the first Meta-tations in Mastery sessions and had remarked how disappointed she was to have missed it. It was suggested at the time that she may not have been ready to ingest that information yet. Over this past week as she has been collecting and organizing all the various pieces of this puzzle, M.P. decided to search through the emails that she had sent to Jane Sibbett and quite marvellously found an old note from Mum with an attached file. M.P said:

“And sitting right there in front of me in a subject line are the words:

‘This is for you to listen to when you are ready.‘

And I click on it, and it was the missed Meta-tation from the one that I said I was sad I missed. Right there. Just right there. And I watched it last night. I had written instructions for myself that said, ‘Go to the 59-minute mark and then listen to that and then watch the Meta-tation.’ And basically, Jane at the 59-minute mark said, ‘This is big. This is huge, but you have to be ready for it. You have to be willing to…’ but I wasn’t ready at the time, so it just missed me. It just went right over me. But apparently, I’m ready now. So, it was like spoon fed back to me. I was not looking for it. I didn’t even know that I had (the Meta-tation.) And so, I wasn’t ready at the time. And now it’s presented itself to me.”

Even five days after hearing this story, I am still shaking my head in awe of the perfect timing of everything. To have little breadcrumbs lined up for the present day that can be traced back sixteen months, or four years, feels like divine orchestration. By retracing our steps along the paths we’ve walked before, we may be opening ourselves up to receive information that we could not handle the first time. We allow ourselves to see the same world through fresh eyes—or a new world with eyes that are better adjusted to the patterns woven into it. We may choose the steps we take and the direction in which we wish to travel through life, but that does not deny us the pleasure of receiving encouragement, should we wish to see it. Or, as the M.P. then said:

“When you work with Jane, she’s the catalyst. And then…you take from that what you’re ready for, what your body is ready for, and then it’s kind of up to you, because she can’t do it—She can’t do it for you, but she can be the catalyst and hold the space for you and be with you on the journey as these things start to unfold. …I really believe, had I not gone to that Quanta Circle that day, I wouldn’t be sitting here right now. I think my life would look entirely different.”

We are so grateful for M.P.’s story. And to all who share so dearly to encourage this Sparkling Circle to expand with everyone’s sacred circle dance, thank you for being here. This adventure together is ongoing and there are many more stunning and inspiring stories within our community. Mum always wants everyone to know that even feeling just a tiny bit better, or a little bit held or seen in a wide world like this is the foot in the door for greater light. Please let us know how you are, what you’d like to see more of, and how we may serve the highest and best good beside you individually and collectively.

*Peacock animal medicine has many meanings across cultures, but broadly it signifies good fortune, compassion, psychic vision, beauty, and fortitude. They symbolize supportiveness. In Christianity, they also represent resurrection or messengers from the angelic realm. It is an encouragement to see beauty everywhere. In Shamanic traditions, the Peacock Animal Spirit is a healer. A great reminder it’s okay to shake your tail feathers occasionally and release your spiritual vision. (whatismyspiritanimal.com)
