Chac Mool Power Journeys
Join us on a Power Journey to sacred Power spots in the Mexican Yucatán. Stay in Mayan style Cabañas on beautiful tropical white coral sand beaches near the ancient site of Tulúm which lies south of Cancun.
From Tulúm we will journey to Pyramid of Kukulkán in Chichén Itzá. The Pyramid is actually two pyramids. The outside Pyramid, is the Sun Pyramid, and inside the Sun Pyramid lies the sacred Moon Pyramid. The pyramid has 91 steps on each of its four sides, representing 91 days in each season.
Once a year, during the Spring equinox, the serpent,
Quetzalcoatl climbs down the side of the pyramid.
The pyramid was precisely constructed so that the sun's would give the effect of Quetzalcoatl moving down its side. The Toltec Mayans believed that the seven centers of our physical bodies connect at this time with the Pleiades star cluster, "seven sisters" part of the Taurus constellation.

Connecting To Your True Self
There is a part of Self that lies deep inside of us that is wiser, larger and much more powerful than our
personality self. Toltecs call this our Dreamer. Our Dreamer carries our destiny and all of tools we need
for growth. How does our Dreamer communicate with us? How do we connect more fully to it?
The answer to these questions is simple and is very powerful. For a moment shift your awareness to your desires
for personal growth and transformation. What is it in you that motivates you to grow and evolve? Find and locate
these desires. Look back at your life and recall when you first started to get these desires for growth. How old
were you? Notice times they came into your life. For some, they enter our lives, and then seem to fade only to
reappear in greater force some years later.
In the beginning, our Dreamer communicates with us through our deep desires, or urges. These are not the same
desires as our surface ego desires. These are long term, deep desires. By focusing on and following these desires
back to their source we are able to connect more powerfully with that part of Self that is wiser. We are able to
connect with that part of Self whose essence is pure love.
Recall your desires for personal transformation and growth. Bring them fully into your awareness. As you go
about life recall them and bring their sensation into your inner and outer worlds. As you do this you not only
strengthen connection with your Dreamer, but you speed up your personal transformation process.
Love and Light,
Kris

THE
TOLTEC MASTERIES - Mistake! I only ordered your first CD - having listened to it over the weekend I am now anxious to listen to, and use, the rest of your course. It was an incredible listen. I was particularly impressed by the clarity of your message, but more importantly by the energy you have been able to transmit through the medium .The warmth and power that you convey has given me a fresh impetus which has lifted me out of the 'doldrums' that I have recently been experiencing on my path (do we sometimes have to experience a 'big' doubt before being able to find our way back through all the <mind's> detours on our road?) I asked for help in finding my way back during my dreaming/meditation, Kris, and, right on cue, there came your invite to subscribe to your newsletter. The Nagual works in mysterious ways! Many thanks for being there at the right time. I would most certainly be interested in an internet based course and will be ordering your second CD shortly. Love, Michael"

A True Experience of Life at Chichen Itza
by Kalyn
For someone who used to have great difficulty experiencing energy, I always get transformed the minute the plane touches the ground in Cancun. There is magic, wonder and vitality to this land. The air is crisper, cleaner and the sensation coming from the ocean and the jungles feels like real life! Cancun gives a one a true feeling and sensation of being alive.
As I approached the top of the pyramid of the sun I felt a cool breeze. Looking around, seeing the top of miles and miles of jungle, I was on top of the world. We are children of heaven and earth, and here I stood perfectly between the two. Here there are a few different rooms standing. The energy in these is light and crisp, inviting one to sit with the eyes closed and slip into an energy of bliss. It is now that you begin to feel truly alive, as every cell seems to awaken to a higher power, as the air you breath is bringing your lungs, blood and body to life. It is here and now that you begin to sense the incredible energy of this power place at Chichen Itza and where one comes to know a part of God, simultaneously looking upon this in-body process with love and gratitude for being truly alive.
The questions you have asked will be answered in a Supplement following this Newsletter. Please don't
hesitate to ask your questions.
If you have a question please email it to:
mailto:newsletter@toltecmysteryschool.com
In each issue of The Toltec path we will answer up to three questions from readers. If you have a question please email it to: mailto:newsletter@toltecmysteryschool.com

Where do you live?
Our tonal can be described as our structured parts of self. We are made up of structured (physical) and
unstructured (energetic: nagual, etheric body, etc...) parts. The tonal is made up of our mental body, our
emotional body and our physical body. All three are structured.
Our Mental Bodies are able to logically think. We have the capacity to put structure to something, manifesting it.
If you look to your ability to build anything you'll see your ability to bring structure: we create reports at work,
we write our thoughts down in a chronological order and we plan our errands so that we don't drive in more than one
circle. Our mental bodies are intended to bring our deep desires and urges that flow from deeper aspects of Self
into manifestation. We are intended to use our mental body to figure out and create a plan to make our desires happen.
Our mental bodies are being used properly when we use them for thinking functions at work or in our personal lives.
Our Emotional Bodies are able to feel this life experience. Our emotional bodies bring colors to our life.
As we go through life, they are "spice of life" allowing us to discern between our desires and parts of
life that are unpleasant. It is through our feelings that we are urged to follow our desires. The desire to become an
actor is fulfilling and feels wonderful when achieved. Owning a home makes one feel like the king or queen of
their castle because a desire is being fulfilled. Hugging your lover or best friend feels wonderful, fulfilling a
need for love. Our emotional bodies are being used properly when we are aware of and in tune with our healed feelings,
which come from desires.
Our Physical Bodies give us the capability to have this physical plane experience. We could not very well
function among physical objects without being physical ourselves. In
an out-of-body experience, we find that we cannot open a door because we cannot grab the doorknob. We just float
through the door. In our physical bodies we are able to make our bed in morning, type out our report for work
and communicate with other people. Being in the physical plane allows us to see and experience life from a slower
perspective. It allows us to fully get to know ourselves, our problems and to use our mental and emotional bodies to
work at and solve our problems -allowing us to grow.
Although the bodies and their intended functions may seem obvious, we often do not use the proper body for the
proper function. We often cross-function, using our mental body to try to figure out how we feel, using our emotional
body to determine what to eat - 'I feel like having a whole apple pie because I feel so sad'.
On the Toltec Path, the warrior first cleans, clears and heals his or her three bodies. Until a physical wound is
healed, such as a broken leg, we can't say whether or not we enjoy jogging because we have not been able to jog
before. Just same, mental and emotional wounds keep us from truly comprehending our bodies and truly knowing ourselves.
The most common and detrimental wounding is emotional. Our emotional wounds are not as visible as a wound on our
physical body, so they often go undetected. If we were to try jogging, not knowing that our leg is broken, then our
perception of jogging will not be accurate. How can it be? Jogging with two healthy legs is quite a different
experience than jogging with a broken leg. The same is true for our emotional wounding. If we are speaking with a good
friend and we hold a wound around being referred to as short, our friend can inadvertently talk about Napoleon and
his height. Because of our wound, we are now jogging on a
broken leg, causing us to take this personally and be insulted. Although our friend was not even talking about
us, we have now misperceived what our friend said, our experience, and our own feelings.
Within our societies, one body is revered over others. In society, emotional wounding is not acknowledged or seen
as an area requiring growth, healing or attention. We are thus conditioned by our parents and society to view
intelligence from the mental body as superior. Intelligence is harnessed, taught and rewarded- we spend years in school
developing only mental body. We are taught and greatly encouraged to put our feelings aside as well as our
physical body’s needs. A great scholar is given a prestigious reputation while an athlete is stereotyped as
being slow, but entertaining to watch; a person who is emotionally based is thought to be weak.
A warrior works on cleansing, clearing, healing and strengthening all three bodies. A warrior uses the Mastery
of Awareness to become familiar with self, to learn which body is the body that he/ she uses and relies upon most and
then works towards strengthening all three bodies, utilizing the proper body for the proper function. Strength
and balance are found when there is a balance of all three healed bodies and they are all used for their proper
intended functions.
Now, which body do you rely on and use most? Which body do you live in?
Love and Light,
Kalyn

Where there's a will there's a way
Being "lost" in our thoughts is the common state of men and women. It steals energy needed for awareness, and adds to living a mechanical live without intent.
One way to live with more conscious intent is to focus our attention on what Toltecs refer to as our
will center. In Japanese it is called Hara. Chinese call it Tan Tien. It is a point about 2 inches below our navel and about an inch inward.
As you go about your day hold a piece of your awareness on your will point. This not only stops us from walking about like an autotron, but also strengthens the will
necessary for personal growth.
