Since the first announcement of the Whale Week Retreat, many event have ocurred that have created changes in our original intention. The Oil Spill disaster in the Gulf of Mexico and the resulting damage to many forms of life has focussed attention on the Oceans, and the Human Partnership with the Cetaceans and the Elemental Energies.

The Cetaceans have asked us to use this opportunity to come together and to work with them for the Highest Good of the Planet and of All her Inhabitants. Many of you will be hearing this call to work for the Health and Well Being of the Oceans and to work with the Cetaceans, and we hope that you will consider joining us for this Sacred Gathering in September.

In January of this year, the Dolphin Pod at Eilat in the Read Sea initiated a Dolphin Matrix that has been a powerful source of Energy Transmission for the shift of the Planet and Humanity to the Fifth Dimensional Unity Consciousness. In September, the Southern Right Whales that visit the Walker Bay area will assist us to initiate a Whale Matrix that will have similar power to raise consciousness and be a vehicle for the coming major Shift in Consciousness on the Planet. This area has already been an "anchor" point for the Paradise Codes and the Paradise Grids in 2005, and now the Cetaceans call us to anchor the Whale Consciousness matrix at this point as well.

Africa itself is the "Mother" continent, the site of the original land of "Mu" and the place where Human Evolution through Conscious Creation with Spirit began. There is also a current anomaly in the Magnetic Field of Southern Africa that suggests that it will be the "seed point" for a new phase on Conscious Creation and Transformation. Africa is ready to come "online" and to be a part of the emerging New Earth Fifth Dimensional Co-Creative partnership. There are powerful elemental energies in Africa that, once activated, will contribute to the Rising of the Earth into the Higher Frequencies and the Higher Dimensions of Time and Space.

The Venue

Karen and Dave at Bodhi Khaya

Every year, from July to November, the Southern Right Whales visit the shores of Southern Africa. The Walker Bay area, which includes Gansbaai and Hermanus, is well known for being one of the best land based whale watching sites on the Planet. The steep cliffs and deep waters allow the whales to come in very close to the shore, and in the warm September days of Spring they love to bask in the Sun just off the coast. We will also have a Boat trip to Dyer Island to experience close contact with the Whales in their own environment, as well as to see Seals, Penguins and Great White Sharks that also live in the waters around the Eco Preserve of Dyer Island.

When we are not busy with our Spiritual activities with the Cetaceans, there will be time to rest, relax, meditate and write in your journal in the quiet setting of the gardens and water features of Bodhi Khaya, or you may choose to walk in the fragrant garden labyrinth, visit the organic vegetable garden or meditate in the Meditation Hall.

Here are some images of Bodhi Khaya, and please also watch our video.

In the Course of the Retreat you will be able to connect with the Cetaceans through Meditations and Activations, participate in Group activities including Movement and Sound, spend time in the Gardens and in personal meditation, as well as going on planned excursions with the Group.
