This recording contains a special interview with Samuel in which he answers questions about the ascension process as it relates to the 11:11 Gate-way. Using a question-and-answer format, Samuel covers many topics quickly. He discusses physical and emotional responses to 11:11; unity; the return of goddess energy; and Phoenix’s work in the community. He also talks briefly about the “Guardians of the 33rd degree.”

Powerful acts of recognition are the result of ascended awareness, and they allow you to rediscover your spiritual energy, realize your successes, and give credit to yourself and others. Recognition, says Samuel, is the first thing that every human being wants. “As long as you are Spirit working through Form, you will have an innate desire that you cannot resist, which wants your spirit to be recognized as it is . . . because you will then be associated with that wonder and that power and that goodness.” Also in this teaching Samuel outlines three versions of recognition that, as ascended beings, we need to put into our life in order to gain the kind of recognition we want from the world around us.

In this Sunday night meeting, Samuel responds to audience questions about the post-11:11 experience and ascended living. Topics include: abusive behavior, resistance to the ascended experience; new beginnings; illness; relationships; The Year Of Completion; Lexington as an “anchor city”; and more!

During this teaching, Samuel encouraged us to embrace our roles as healers and Light workers in our near future by reminding us that “your destiny, your thorn, your burden, as you know, is that you’re here to pioneer in everything you do.” He then challenged us to stop avoiding the responsibility that this destiny brings. Samuel used this meeting to proclaim 1992 as the Year of Completion and explained how to create completions in our lives.

In this session Samuel outlines the ritual pattern of 11:11 as the Gateway to Ascension. The good news is you don’t have to experience physical death to go there. You can create heaven here and now! Samuel teaches that the information we need for passing through the gateway is within us; and that we just have to remember it while living in the real world. Finally, Samuel describes the requirements for participation and explains the purpose of the synchronized body movements used in the ritual.

Samuel, as the loving taskmaster, continues his discussion of ascendancy and encourages us to cut the bonds around our ankles that keep us from Ascension. Starting with the Thanksgiving holiday, Samuel moves into a discussion of thankfulness, an aspect of manifestation. Being thankful for everything in one’s life requires an awareness of our partnership with Source. Samuel warns that the greater energy available with 11:11 is causing a disruptive influence which, in the big picture, is good, but it can also show up as conflicts in our relationships. The key, he says, is not being a victim. Conflict is the result of caring without communication, and Samuel addresses conflict in three areas: physical; mental, and spiritual, giving positive actions to take in dealing with each.

In this important and straight-to-the-heart session, Samuel focuses most of his answers on questions about 11:11, the opening of the Gateway, helping define what 11:11 is (and isn’t). He gives a perspective on teachings about this event and its significance to Hu-manity, and speaks of awareness as the key to Ascension which he defines as synthesis of the physical and the spiritual. Samuel explains that as the veil shrouding the planet is lifting, manifestation energy will increase, allowing the opportunity for more confidence, creativity and healing to help us do what we came here to do—assist and guide in the awakening of humanity. During this session Samuel also discusses jubilee and Christ Consciousness, and concludes with an exercise on “touching” with love.

The last tape in this series in preparing for the January 11, 1992, ritual focuses on the transition from life as we know it to life as we dream it can be. Samuel reviews how to master the Twelve Rays to become ascended individuals and discusses synthesizing self, mastering form, and moving into spirit. He explains how sound and vibration have a very strong effect on our physical body.

Samuel continues to assist with our preparation for opening the Power Gate on January 11, 1992. He reviews the changes that are occurring not only within us, but also with our earth, as we work to reach Sacred Status. He dis-cusses specific ways we can put the necessary spiritual foundations into our lives through meditating, journaling, sitting, visualizing, exercising, and setting ourselves up for success.

This is the first of a four-part series from Samuel discussing preparation for the January 11, 1992 “Power Gate” ritual. In Part 1 he guides us through an examination of the influence of the Second Ray energy of Love/Wisdom, our responsibility in the earth’s transition from masculine to feminine energy, and the discipline required of the mind, body and spirit for the successful completion of opening the Power Gate. Samuel emphasizes that one of the keys for preparing for this opening is the continual work of living a life of love consciously.
