Sedona Vortex Energies

Sedona's world-famous vortex
power spots. People travel from around the world to experience
Sedona's famed vortexes. Visitors scramble up steep red-rock
hillsides and crawl into forested canyons seeking a hit of vortex
energy. Some expect their skirts to blow up and their hair to
stand on end, but that's not really what a vortex does. So what
exactly do they find?
What is a power spot?
All around the world, the earth reveals her deepest energies
in areas known as power spots. Here the electromagnetic pulse
lines of the planet come to the surface, much as underwater
rivers surface to form geysers and springs.
The effects of power spots are not so readily
apparent to the senses; they play upon the more subtle perceptions
of heart and soul. Geomancy, the study of the earth's energy
grids, often uses pendulums and dowsing to uncover the hidden
ley-lines that lace the landscape.
Power spots around the
world. Many power spots have attracted the spiritual
attention of men and women throughout history. Areas where the
hidden realms break through into the human world have often
become the sites for chapels, temples, oracles and cathedrals.
From Macchu Picchu to the Great Pyramid of Giza,
from Lourdes to the Oracle at Delphi, power spots and sacred
sites can be found where the energies of heaven and earth come
into special alignment.
The size and scale of the
Sedona Vortex. In the vast and starkly beautiful Southwestern
desert, the Earth Mother bares her red-rock heart in the landscape
of Sedona. Here we are invited to enter her eternal embrace.
For several miles in every direction, from the
top of Oak Creek Canyon in the north to the sentinels of Courthouse
Butte and Bell Rock in the south, from Red Rock State Park on
the west to the Mogollon Cliffs on the east, the entire valley
is one huge energy vortex, pulsing with the lovesong of heaven
and earth.
Its
physical reflection is a landscape of staggering beauty for
all of the senses. Its impact on the soul is one of awe and
wonder. Its emotional effects can be intense and profound, heart-opening
and life-changing.
The energy saturating the entire valley is of
a higher, wilder, purer frequency. Sedona is a transformation
chamber, pulling up and spinning out whatever thoughts and feelings
have been stagnating in us. Sedona quickens energy, accelerating
the vibratory rate in everything that enters her great vortex.
Specific power spots in
Sedona. Within this larger landscape, there are many
smaller vortexes, each with its own distinctive character and
gifts. Most guide books list a half-dozen major vortexes: Bell
Rock, Cathedral Rock, Boynton Canyon, Airport Mesa, Indian Gardens,
and the Chapel.
Dozens more are scattered within and even beyond
the valley. Every local has found a special power spot that
speaks to them, that soothes or quickens their life journey.
Evidence of native ceremony and activity is found at almost
every major vortex.
Many locals differentiate between the "masculine"
or electrical vortexes, and the "feminine" or magnetic
ones. Some power spots blend these two elements. The energy
in some vortexes is challenging and fierce, while others lull
you with feelings of unconditional love.
What a vortex does.
Just as a magnet will line up metal filings, a vortex will bring
our emotional and spiritual bodies into alignment with the heartbeat
of the planet.
Just as electricity is raw energy that can power
many different devices (clocks, trains, radio receivers, etc)
so can vortex energy power and activate many subtle mechanisms
in the human body. Vortex energy can power changes in the chakra
system, the acupuncture meridians, the endocrine system, the
pineal and pituitary glands, unleashing psychic awareness, emotional
release, and spiritual unfolding.
How to get the most out
of the vortexes. It's always useful to be introduced
to vortex energy by someone who's familiar with its special
qualities. Our guides can lead you to the best spots, and show
you how to best experience their magic.
Tools like meditation, chanting, toning, guided
visualization, yogic breathing, prayer, asanas, and hands-on
energy work can gently open you to the subtle energies of the
vortexes.
Every body experiences vortex energy in unique
and individual ways, depending on their own sensitivity, psychic
gifts, emotional openness, and spiritual awareness. No matter
what you perceive consciously, though, the electromagnetic pulse
is at work on you.
What the vortexes can do
for you. No one who comes to Sedona with a pure heart
seeking spiritual growth will leave empty-handed. Whatever lessons
the vortexes have for you, whatever your own personal intentions,
Sedona and the special people who live in her embrace will be
delighted to assist you in coming home to your soul.
