We're literally buzzing here in the Openhand camp, because our Facilitator Summer School begins today, with 15 of us gathering once more near Avebury, UK, in what can only be described as 'crop circle grand central'. Openhand facilitation is all about learning to support consciousness expansions within people through the earth's Great 5D Shift. The shift is influencing all our lives, in our careers, relationships and general living circumstances. So by coming together and intuiting what stage the movement of energy is heading through, helps us be much more effective as facilitators. So what's involved in Openhand Spiritual Facilitation and what will the week be about? As always, we'll be running a daily journal so you may join in the energy...

Everyone here at Openhand is tremendously excited, Because today begins our annual, jewel in the crown, level 3 course "The Transfiguration". It's taking place at the lovely private estate of Openhanders Michael and Marielle Sabbe. Participants are flying in from all around the world to be here, to immerse themselves in the Openhand energy and thereby inquire deeply into the nature of their true self. It is for sure, a powerfully transformative event.

And we'd love all of you tuning in to join us!

So we'll be running a daily journal with photos, sharings, and suggestions as to how you might participate with your own exploration and inquiry, inspired by the energy we'll be radiating out to you. Come join the family, and activate your next big shift! Blessings from all the Team.

Openhand is moving with a new energy, heading in a new direction, a new location, in a new land. Where will it be? This week we've been hosting a small but dedicated team of Facilitator Trainees on the magical island of La Palma in the Canary Islands off North Africa. We've had such a marvelous time, not just in the learning and assimilation of the Openhand Spiritual Facilitation Processes, but also soaking up the very mystical and magical energy of La Palma. Far removed from the matrix, secluded and peaceful, it's got a strong 5D vibe. You can literally feel it all around you. Here's a taster of what the trepid Openhand Pioneers have experienced this week...

Those following Openhand will know that over the festive period Trinity and myself finally decided it was right to part company. It had been 'on the cards' for a couple of years, however it was still a fair wrench when the finality of it hit home. But you cannot avoid the path when it is clearly calling. And it also became abundantly clear that it should be me to leave what's been the Openhand Home these last 11 years, to allow Trinity maximum use of the sacred space to develop her Conscious Kitchen Venture...

So when I headed out to run the Facilitators Course in La Palma this week, with just my backpack and suitcase, not only did it feel I was leaving my marriage, but my beloved Glastonbury also. I can tell you a fair few tears ran down my cheeks as the bus departed.

So, you haven't managed to make our very international team flying in for the Chalice Well NewYear Retreat! Nevermind, you don't have to miss out. You can tune in and join us through the ether where distance is no object. And it's made all the more easy by the very special 'energy vehicle' we'll be working in. The Chalice Well in Avalon has been a place of spiritual pilgrimage for over 2000 years! It's been lovingly constructed and blessed with the divine feminine. The Magdalen energy is strong here, so is the Christ consciousness; and the Archangel Michael Line flows very close too. So it's a very special blend to help us unfold and realign for the New Year. Come join the rolling journal, and we'll be sure to involve you as much as possible in the meditation, exploration and celebration...

The path of the soul is one of continual unfolding, expression and evolutionary growth. In a universe of constant change, change is the only constant. And so souls that come together for joy, love and mutual exploration, will also, at some point, part company too. So it has come to pass for myself and Trinity. Having been a loyal and supportive partner to both me personally and to Openhand, the time has clearly now arrived for her to fully invest her energies in her own venture and see where the wave takes her. Parting will always be tinged with sadness where there has been such a wonderful connection. But also unleashed is great sense of adventure as the energies reintegrate and build in new directions. So it is for Openhand too...

The Breakthrough Tour is now down under in Oz. I was flying here during the US election voting, and didn't hear the result until collecting my bags at the carousel. It feels like the whole world has been turned upside down. Or is that just me? Somehow I don't think so! The election result for me gives the work another booster. There's now even stronger writing on the wall for why work like this is so necessary. The time for delay and procrastination has long vanished. The shift is getting very real now. For me that can only be a good thing. Come join the rolling Aussie Journal. Let it inspire internal shifts for you too.

Breakthrough has finally arrived! Open has been working away, with every spare moment over the last year, creating the all new Breakthrough Workshop which is set to travel the globe this month, starting off here in Avalon, before swiftly sailing over the pond to Europe. AND - deep, deep inhale my friends... as many of you already know, Open has completed his next book "Breakthrough" (which has actually been over 12 years in the making!). It's truly is an "epic journey of awakening", inspired to help others make that all important Spiritual Breakthrough that will change everything. Being involved in the design process, I've had more than my fair share of sneak peeks - so I am absolutely thrilled to announce it's release.

The Openhand Facilitator Summer School begins in Avalon today, with a lovely group of souls gathered, facilitators who've been involved in the Openhand program now for several years. It promises to be special (as always!), especially because of the timing. We're in the midst of crop circle season here in the UK, a time of heightened energy, where benevolence is clearly 'speaking' to those actively engaged in the Great 5D Shift of consciousness taking place across the Earth. Ultimately, that's what Openhand Facilitation is all about. Facilitators are developing their energy skills to assist one-on-one in people's personal evolutionary stories, but also, to help work the energy field at large. If divine service is what inspires you, then come join in the rolling journal we'll be recording...

Woohoo! It's here. Openhand's tenth annual "Transfiguration" begins today, here on the Isle of Avalon, a very special earth portal into higher dimensions of consciousness. As ever we have a wonderful group of lovely people flying in from all around the world. And because Openhand is a virtual community, and because you can touch the energy from anywhere on the planet, we're extending an open hand of invitation for you to come and join us. We're running a rolling journal through the course, sharing insight into what we're doing, so you may explore in your own way too. So come and connect up to the energy by opening your heart and mind to the sense of the space and what we're doing. It's sure to activate shifts in your consciousness too. You are most welcome...

The gloves are off. The time has come. No more pretense. No more half measures. It's time to fully dive into our immaculate home coming; to take centre stream of the soul and let it carry you to the ultimate destination - the continual connection with the divine light within. It's simple, but not always easy. Openhand's new Breakthrough Work is designed to cut to the chase - the deeper meaning of every moment in your life, the real purpose, the real joy. We know many of you have been tuning in to Openhand from the sidelines for years. Well now's the time to jump right in! Come join us for the excitement of a lifetime, the thriller that can last a lifetime! We're coming to a country near you. Where will you be?...

There's never a dull moment here in the world of Openhand. Following quickly on from Sleepless in Seattle, now we're sending bright etheric blessings from Bruges in the heart of Europe, for another deep exploration through the 5GATEWAYS - thanks to Openhander Alexia for bringing us back to this absolutely stunning centre. The weather is lovely once more, and as we waved goodbye to the White Cliffs of Dover on the cross channel ferry, it felt like we were opening a new chapter of exploration and growth. Just like everyone! Trinity's Conscious Kitchen will be joining me for this one, So come follow the "Blessings from Bruges" rolling journal. Let's see if we can't 'cook up' and etheric treat for you all...
