Energy Currents
New Energy Comes to Crestone by Katherine Parker & Steve Fillenberg
The home base of Resonance Alchemy has recently moved to Crestone, Colorado. A shorter version of this article will be appearing in the Nov. Crestone Eagle newspaper.
As a body worker, tai chi practitioner and long time resident of Crestone I have had the opportunity to experience many wonderful healing modalities, here in Crestone and elsewhere. But a few years ago when I reconnected with an old friend and heard about the new system of hands on energy healing that had been revealed through her, sourced by a group of Higher Dimensional Star Beings, I wanted learn more. When I experienced it, I immediately found the work to be profound and life changing. I decided I wanted to learn as much as I could about it, and began studying with my friend, Katherine Parker, in Denver.
After studying this new system for three years, which Katherine calls Resonance Alchemy, I have now become a practitioner myself, and am very excited about the transformation I have been experiencing not only in myself but in my clients who are receiving the work.
Just recently Katherine and her husband Mark made the move from Denver to Crestone, and I asked her if she would sit down with me and answer a few questions about Resonance Alchemy to share with the Crestone community.
Steve: Can you briefly tell the story of how Resonance Alchemy came to be?
Katherine: I can try! (chuckle) In the winter of 95-96 I had a spontaneous and completely unexpected out-of-body experience one night. I was aware of leaving my body and traveling into space, heading towards the Pleiades. Great beams of light came towards me from the Pleiades star cluster, and I found myself surrounded by a group of light beings. They produced three or four beautiful crystals, made of light, and placed them within my astral body. I was aware that they contained a profound information, but I had no clue at the time what that information was. A number of weeks later in meditation I was visited by three light beings, who began to open up the knowledge that was encoded in the crystals. After that time, the information and knowledge began to slowly and naturally unfold in my awareness. The knowledge has three parts: a series of sacred seed syllables that are of a previously forgotten universal language of spirit, a series of points on the body that activate various layers and aspects of the energy field, and a means of using the syllables and points for healing and spiritual awakening. I hasten to add that at the time I thought all this was pretty far-out. I did not doubt what was happening, but I treated it all with a healthy skepticism. My attitude was; I will work with this information, I will test it out, and if it proves to effective and beneficial, great! Well it did prove to be more amazing than I could have ever imagined, but it was subtle.
Steve: What would you say distinguishes Resonance Alchemy from other healing modalities?
Katherine: Well, it is unique, both in how it is done and also, I believe, in the scope of the work. It works on the principal of resonance, but it is the resonance of thought, not outer sound. The power of the work is in the vibrational codes produced by the thought-repetition of the syllables, which are fifth, sixth and seventh dimensional in nature. This is similar to the Reiki symbols, but the syllables are more varied, and are able to communicate many specific aspects of spirit. Also the use of the points makes the work focused and precise. It is a very comprehensive system, specifically addressing not only physical and emotional issues and conditions, but even more importantly working directly with the soul and the higher self, reconnecting or strengthening our connection to our higher self, clearing karmic blockages and patterns, retrieving soul energies, clearing soul possessions and the like. It truly addresses the whole human being, but focuses on whatever priority is most beneficial for the person at that time.
Steve: Resonance Alchemy has a strong spiritual component, as you have indicated. Would you say more about that?
K: Well, as I said, the healing power of the syllables is spiritual, activating aspects of our own essential nature through what the western traditions call higher mind, or Nous. A prominent channel confirmed that the syllables are angelic in nature. These higher dimensional vibrations activate the bodys innate healing capacity, for physical and emotional healing, or, if its the personal intention, for awakening and accelerating spiritual unfoldment and development.
The syllables activate our innate spiritual potential, and do not involve any particular belief system, religion or dogma. In this way they are universal, and can be used effectively by anyone regardless of their spiritual tradition, beliefs and other practices. I was instructed in the beginning to use the syllables in meditation, and found them to be extremely powerful. I had meditated for many years before, and using the syllables took my meditations to a whole new level. As you know, I encourage my students to use the Resonance Alchemy work for their own spiritual unfoldment, as well as a healing modality.
S.: You mentioned that the source of this information was a group of higher dimensional star beings. I guess it is safe to say that many ancient traditions claim to have been the recipients of information passed on to them by Higher Beings from the stars. Is the Resonance Alchemy work informed by any particular earthly tradition as well?
K: It is a universal and integrative system, so there are elements of the work that can be found in a number of different traditions. For instance, we work with the five elements that are found in the Chinese system, the 7 chakras of the Vedic tradition and the enneagram, which is more Sufi in origin. We also work with the planetary energies, which are central to many traditional systems. But I would have to say, probably the strongest linage informing the work comes through the western esoteric tradition, beginning with Thoth in ancient Egypt, the Hermetic and Alchemical traditions, and even Pythagorus and Plato. Thoth/Hermes has been one of my primary guides for many years, and one of the foundations of the RA work is a deeper understanding of the Caduceus. My guides told me in the beginning it is a teaching based on the original meaning of the biblical Tree of Life.
S: What are your plans for being here in Crestone and moving RA into the future?
K: I am very excited to be making Crestone the home base for the RA work. I find the natural energies and the people here to be very conducive to and supportive of this work. I look forward to continuing my private practice here, as well as to teaching Master Classes on a regular basis. I will be starting a class here most likely in January, but perhaps before. I have also been working on a book about RA, and plans for an integrative healing retreat center, centered around RA, but also including other healing modalities.
