ForewordIn this time of rapid transformation, many of us who work toclaim remembrance of the ancient wisdom of the crystalline en-ergy will rejoice in this latest book by Michael Eastwood. Herewe have the offering of an awakened elder, guide, mystic, teacherand initiator.

Through Michael’s personal experience, each Crystal Over-soul speaks directly to us, in many voices, but with the unifiedauthority and presence of the One. They remind us of our vast-ness, our true Soul potential, and our need to reclaim our an-cient Lemurian history.

In Lemuria we lived as our Soul, we used our knowledge andwisdom for the benefit of all. The Earth was purer then andcommunication between other dimensions and realms was eas-ier, flowing effortlessly; everything was pristine.

In this book, the Crystal Oversouls dare us to remember ouroriginal descent into matter, heaven sent, and on a mission asco-creators of this intriguing, magnificent world.

Through Michael’s guidance, you will see yourself and thepotential to be who your Divine self is meant to be and so muchmore. You will be guided through dimensional portals, intoworlds of indescribable beauty and bliss.

I first met Michael over twenty years ago, we have remainedfriends, crystal explorers and crystal pioneers ever since. So youcan imagine my honour and deep delight when I was asked towrite the foreword for this unique book.

IntroductionThis book is part of a childhood dream of mine. From early onI felt that there are many beings of otherworldly consciousnessliving amongst humanity and I knew this to be true because I saw and communicated with two large beings of light that ac-companied me and stood besides me during my bed times.

In my room I also saw many other beings apparently not ofhuman origin. These beings had the appearance of fine spher-ical layers of light and although we did not communicate Isensed that they were benevolent. Over time I started to talk withthe light-beings, asked them questions, from typical childhoodanxieties to questions of a cosmic nature, and somehow I knewthat they were with me on purpose.

They impressed upon me that they originated from starworlds, and sought to comfort, educate and remind me of myown star world heritage. They told me that I, and many others,are here in this lifetime for a specific purpose, that we are ancientmulti-dimensional luminous beings that in ancient days camefrom Lemuria and, before then, the stars.

What I understand now is that, since Lemuria, many of ushave been asleep, still incarnating but without our full capacitiesor knowledge of our vastness. This is mirrored in our chakraand auric layers.

“In Lemuria”, they tell me, “your vastness was reflected throughat least ten layers of your aura as well as ten chakras, awakened andfully operational. In this lifetime humanity, as well as all kingdomsof this planet, will awaken from this slumber through an initiation– the like that has not been since since Lemurian times. This initi-

11

622-0_Ten-Attunements_pages_Layout 1 28/04/2013 11:40 Page 11

Page 11: Unfolding Our Light

ation will activate the ten layers of your aura as well as all tenchakras. Through this you and humanity will remember union withthe wider universe. This human initiation will be keenly watchedby the inner planes as well as other star worlds – it involves themtoo.”

Later in life I started to meet other people who in differentways had received the same message and sensed that somethingimportant would happen to them and humanity in this lifetime.I discovered that there are, in fact, many thousands of peoplewho like me carry a similar dream of being ancient beings awak-ening to a higher purpose. I read the works of two visionaries,Ken Carey’s Starseed Transmissions and Solara’s The Legend ofAltazar and Star-Borne. These two writers and dreamers, espe-cially, inspired me to make a contribution to an emerging newconsciousness.

I have been trading, teaching and healing within the field ofcrystal healing for over twenty five years. Through my work Ihave sought to marry my childhood dialogues with the light be-ings within the framework of crystal healing, which led me intoresearching crystals, the human energy field and chakra system.

In this research I came across many references both in an-cient spiritual texts and modern day writers that referred to sevenlevels of the aura as well as seven chakras, which contradictedthe light-beings’ information I had received about having at leastten layers to the aura and ten chakra gateways. I started to un-derstand that my work was to explore this subject and ultimatelyoffer a model that reflected my own insight and understanding.

As I was piecing it all together I explored the relationship be-tween crystals and the human aura which led me to a profoundexperience. It was during this that I met and dialogued with anOversoul. This eventually led to the publication of The Crystal

Page 12: Unfolding Our Light

Oversoul Attunements (Findhorn Press, 2011). The dialogues Ihad with the Crystal Oversouls became the missing key that un-locked the door that enabled me to understand the ten layers ofthe aura as well as how to awaken all ten chakras.

This book is the result of my research – a navigation guidethrough the ten layers of the human aura as well as the tenchakra gateways, supporting us to an awakening into the vastluminous beings that we are. With the help of the crystal king-dom and the Crystal Oversouls, we are ready to expand our lightand so this book is titled Unfolding Our Light.

This book is also a journey – each layer of the aura and cor-responding chakra is approached with a series of attunementsthat are designed to expand and reorganize our aura and chakrasto a wider template befitting the collective initiation of our time.

With such a large and open map we can operate in multi-di-mensional awareness with ease, taking our rightful place in theuniverse. What I offer through this book is a way of making ourjourney creative, joyful; one that supports our inquisitive nature.

In case you are unfamiliar with the term Oversoul I repeathere the account of my first experience with Oversouls as givenin the accompanying book for the card deck The Crystal OversoulAttunements (Findhorn Press, 2011):

“My first experience of an Oversoul happened one day when Ihad started to write about Ajoite. I sat in front of my computerthinking about this particular mineral’s healing properties whensuddenly I found my awareness shifting and traveling at whatseemed like the speed of light out of my body. Somehow whateverwas happening to me seemed fine and I trusted in the process, al-though it was a completely new experience for me. I knew my phys-ical body was sitting in front of the computer and time was movingat its usual speed, but my inner travel seemed to last for ages.

13

622-0_Ten-Attunements_pages_Layout 1 28/04/2013 11:40 Page 13

Page 13: Unfolding Our Light

I found myself suddenly arriving at what seemed to be a spaceoutside the earth’s atmosphere. There in front of me was an enor-mous portal or mandala of the most vivid turquoise light. The man-dala seemed to be moving inwards and pulling my attention intoitself. There was an indescribable sound emanating from deepwithin its centre. I knew already that this was the oversoul of Ajoite.

Although I had no previous conscious knowledge of what anoversoul was or is, I knew that this presence wanted to tell me itsstory. I felt drawn inside and my consciousness dissolved into thelight.

After what seemed like an age, I found myself back on the outeredges of the mandala, covered in a residual light and full of infor-mation. I thanked the presence for my profound experience.

After a while, I was aware of having returned into my physicalbody, on earth and in front of my computer. I sat for a long timetrying to comprehend what had just happened and knew that Iwould need some time to process my encounter. This same experi-ence happened with each crystal I wrote about, and in time itdawned on me that each one would impress its story and trust inme to share its history.”

These encounters were not easy for me. After each one I wouldfeel like I had been electrocuted. In time though, the experienceeased as I adjusted to the Oversouls’ frequencies.

The colourful mandalas represent as near as possible my im-pression of each of the crystal Oversoul’s consciousness andspirit. I feel that these mandalas convey in a visual form eachcrystal’s personality.

By gazing upon or meditating with them a connection can bemade.

To my understanding an Oversoul is the collective soul or

14

622-0_Ten-Attunements_pages_Layout 1 28/04/2013 11:40 Page 14

Page 14: Unfolding Our Light

master that all individual crystals in its field will identify andcommunicate with. When we work thus, for example with anAjoite, we can communicate with its essential soul, its blueprint,its oversoul.

There is a quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson that encapsulatesthe oversoul idea:

“We live in succession, in division, in parts, in particles. Mean-time within man is the soul of the whole; the wise silence; the uni-versal beauty, to which every part and particle is equally related, theeternal ONE. And this deep power in which we exist and whosebeatitude is all accessible to us, is not only self-sufficing and perfectin every hour, but the act of seeing and the thing seen, the seer andthe spectacle, the subject and the object, are one. We see the worldpiece by piece, as the sun, the moon, the animal, the tree; but thewhole, of which these are shining parts, is the soul.” 1

One of the many questions I had while writing the oversoulstories was: Why tell their story now? What follows is my inter-pretation of what they impressed upon me.

“Crystal Oversouls are part of the fabric of cosmic creation. Theyhave their own destiny while at the same time their evolution isinter-linked with our own. The earth is undergoing an immenseinitiation the like of which has not been seen for thousands of years.This initiation doesn’t involve only humanity, all living creatures,but also all the elemental kingdoms. The initiation is of cosmic ori-gin, part of a great turning within the ever-evolving wheels of thecosmos. This turning in evolution involves, amongst other forces,the conscious effort of thousands of like-minded beings. Such beingsof immense awareness need to work as one unified consciousness,with the cooperation of the many other kingdoms taking part in theshift.

Page 15: Unfolding Our Light

The Crystal Oversouls once worked more closely with humanity.They were highly revered within the temples of Lemuria and sub-sequent times when communication between the inner planes wasstronger. As those times have faded in human memory, humanityhas also forgotten its history. The Crystal Oversouls hold keys to ourawakening. They did not create these keys but hold them in theiressence until such a time when we need reminding. They serve toexpand our horizons, to awake to our greatness, to be the beings oflight that we are.

As we awaken to who we are we start to see with a much widerperspective using sensory chakras and layers of our energy bodies,long forgotten and lain dormant for thousands of years. With thisawakened state comes the realization that we as humans are part ofan inter-galactic family that is evolving along with the cosmos it-self.”

In Unfolding Our Light I explore the Oversouls further,adding crystals as well as entirely new information on theeighth, ninth and earth star chakras. The attunements presentedhere developed from communications with the Oversouls them-selves. They seek to remind us of and to bring more depth towho we really are.

To understand an Oversoul we must first contemplate man-dala forms. When we walk into a sacred place, be it a church,mosque, stone circle, synagogue or any building of spiritual im-portance we often sense a special presence. This is due to theawareness of the builders of such places and their ability to distilland use sacred geometry, proportions and harmonic principlesin the design process, in order to enhance the energies that al-ready existed there.

The fine details behind the patterns refer to the relationshipbetween ourselves and our universe. The builders are seeking

16

622-0_Ten-Attunements_pages_Layout 1 28/04/2013 11:40 Page 16

Page 16: Unfolding Our Light

to expand and elevate our consciousness via the design to ahigher spatial level of awareness. The intricate details of suchplaces remind us of those principles and underlying patterns ofcreation that apparently exist within us and the universe itself.

These places serve to reflect back to us the sacred patterningof manifested creation. When we enter such places our aura feelsattracted, senses the awareness behind these designs and can, ifwe are open to it, align accordingly. These same principles applyto the Oversoul temples and templates. Their visual manifesta-tion as mandalas are purposeful. The intricate, never-endingand overlapping patterns within each temple are unique. Everyfine detail stimulates our consciousness to remember aspects ofour vastness; to reconnect with the awareness of our divine self.

Mandala is a Sanskrit word meaning circle. Nature expressesitself in many circular forms from shells, flowers, buds, to waterbubbles, the list is endless. The circular theme varies throughoutthe world creating a multitude of sacred patterns. Many ancienttraditions use mandalas to frame meditational, devotional andsacred ideas in a contained space. Mandalas focus not only usbut what we have invoked. When we create one for ourselves,another or a group, we create protection, not from somethingoutside of ourselves but from our own everyday distractions.Working with the mandalas in this way unlocks codes withinour being and DNA.

These codes have been waiting for a particular moment intime which align with many ancient prophecies that point to-wards our collective initiation. I believe that grand alignment ishappening right now and that many people are incarnate to wit-ness and participate in it. A mandala creates a space for our con-sciousness to be transformed.

Using this book practically, we offer ourselves to be attuned

17

622-0_Ten-Attunements_pages_Layout 1 28/04/2013 11:40 Page 17

Page 17: Unfolding Our Light

and the crystal Oversouls for each attunement serve this pur-pose. Once activated through a mandala, they will saturate ourbeing with their consciousness, and will help to elevate, attuneand balance whatever needs it most.

When we invite the Oversouls into healing or meditation,these intricate energies and principles are brought into our phys-ical reality and will adjust and expand it accordingly. We can, ifwe are open to it, participate consciously in the endlessly variedand dancing oneness of the universe. We can experience withour physical body the patterns of the stars, earth and the flowsof creation surging, moving exquisitely through us.

In these attunements it is crystals that play a central role astransmitters and gateways for the energy of the new. Follow-ing a series of meditations within the Oversoul temples I un-derstood that the Oversouls transmit themselves via a crystal ora crystals matrix. Within the Oversoul temples themselves arecrystal guardians that reflect the Oversoul’s awareness. Theseguardians are inter-connected with the mindset of the Oversoul.

They carry their mindset further, extending it into the con-sciousness of a crystal’s matrix. When we then work with a crys-tal we are intrinsically linked directly to that crystal’s Oversouland vice versa. When we participate in the attunements in thisbook we are linking in through the crystals and Oversoul cardsdirectly to the source of the temples and in doing so we drawthose exquisite vibrations in towards ourselves, into the deeperconsciousness of humanity. This is all part of a process wherebywe have, on a soul level, agreed to participate in not only ourown awakening but also humanity’s.

Crystal beings have always had a strong relationship with hu-mans. When we look at a crystal we might see beauty and orderbut if we also look further with our inner eye we may see beingswho themselves have their own evolution and consciousnessthat is independent of ours. Crystals are physical manifestationsand extended consciousness of an Oversoul on our plane of con-sciousness. A crystal is itself overseen by a Deva, an etheric formthat distills its intelligence via the crystal.

A crystal is the bridge, the conduit for the power to travel intoour world. When we direct our healing or intent through a crys-tal, it is amplifying the consciousness of an Oversoul and Devadirectly into our aura. This sacred energy then circulatesthroughout our aura and chakra system, eventually filtering intoour physical body. Through this action certain zones of our aura,depending on the crystal applied, can begin to expand to re-member their vast potential.

This process encourages us to unfurl, to awaken, to open thedoor of perception that allow us to dream our life into being ina far wider perspective. For example, an understanding of work-ing with Devas and an ancient healing power, anchored subtlyin the matter around us.

Lemuria retreated into the ethers thousands of years ago.Having served its purpose, this great civilization did not needto be material. No longer supported by the energies of Lemuria,the great temples and the beings of stellar dimensions that alsoinhabited this world, we became less than we were. In Lemuriaour chakra and aura system reflected a wider perspective of ourconsciousness. Our chakra centres of communication and sightwere greatly enhanced, we were able to see, speak with and heardimensions that have since become invisible.

19

622-0_Ten-Attunements_pages_Layout 1 28/04/2013 11:40 Page 19

Page 19: Unfolding Our Light

Within these dimensions were many beings that we still referto in myths and fables such as crystal beings, unicorns and ele-mentals. As we learn to work with our eighth, ninth and earthstar chakras and the corresponding levels of our auric field, wewill start to see what was once invisible.

The beings that occupy these dimensions are returning toour conscious awareness and with this returns a sense of sharedresponsibility that we carry for these kingdoms. We once took afar stronger role in supporting the previously unseen kingdoms.

As we see, hear and communicate with them they becomeallies in our collective journey towards a new wholeness. Thisis all a part of our collective initiation. What had to become in-visible will become, for some, visible.

How to use this bookEach chapter consists of an overview and a practical layoutwhich involves particular crystals and mandalas involving crys-tal Oversoul cards.

There are 44 Oversoul cards, which have been arranged insuch a way that all 44 are spread over all ten attunements. Foreach attunement in-depth information is provided on the auriclayers, colours, sound and characteristics of its correspondingchakra. Each attunement and its corresponding mandala isaligned with a specific combination of crystals that is also ex-plored.

Each chapter explores the attunements step by step, from thebase to crown chakra. The book contains completely new ma-terial on the eighth, ninth and earth star chakra and their at-tunements. Together these attunements support an awakeningof our vast potential.

Each of the following attunements is designed to be flexible,allowing for our expanded multi-dimensional awareness thatknows what to do for our highest good. The way I understandworking with the attunements presented here, is that the processwill be relative to the amount of inner work you have previouslyput in and continue to do. You can work from the first attune-ment upwards or start with whichever one you feel drawn to.

I would recommend coming back to the information fromtime to time as attunements are ongoing exercises and willchange each time we set out to begin them. The energy of anattunement follows divine intelligence in accordance with ourfree will.

Page 21: Unfolding Our Light

You can use the information in this book in another way too.There are numerous crystals for each attunement that, if youare drawn to, can be meditated on. The final chapter of this bookshows how to make essences for each attunement.

On the following pages there are some pictures that reflectdifferent ways of creating the mandalas shown in this book, fromgroup meditations to personal and Earth healing.

The above picture is taken from a workshop in 2012. Duringthe day I created a mandala with all 44 of the crystal Oversoulcards. Once the cards were in place I added numerous crystalsand then everyone else added any crystals of their own. I thenguided the group into a meditation attunement.

This creates an extremely powerful group energy whichgreatly magnifies the attunement process. There are many vari-ations for this exercise as each group will draw a unique re-sponse from the Oversouls depending on the needs of the group.

Layout for the First Attunement

If you resonate with this attunement read the following writingfirst. Familiarize yourself with as much of the information aspossible. You can do this process as many times as you like. Eachtime will be different because it affects another moment of yourjourney.

Decide if you are to lie within the mandala, sit or stand.

Lay the named crystal Oversoul cards in a mandala matchingthe position of your body.

Choose any of the mentioned crystals or all of them. All theones you choose will be drawn into the energetic mixture. An-other option is to decide different quantities of the same stone,for example six Malachite. Be creative and trust your intuition.Lay these crystals within the Oversoul mandala.

Once your mandala is laid out lay or stand inside the man-dala. The crystal Oversoul cards provide a gateway for the en-ergy necessary to protect, open and offer the created space forthe attunement. Relax, resting with the support of the crystalconsciousness and its innate ability to transport you to the leveland frequency that is correct for you. There is nothing you needto direct. The more you relax and allow, the deeper the processcan become.

It is difficult to say for how long the process lasts as this workhas a time all of its own. An obvious drop in energy can be feltwhen the process is complete.

First Auric Layer

Etheric —- Element: Earth

Each layer of our aura, al-though individual, is part of theintelligent web of life that servesour divinity.

As we move, extending awayfrom the physical body, we en-counter the etheric layer, which ra-diates out from the physical bodyby a couple of inches and sur-rounds it entirely. It envelopes andmirrors the body’s shape and sizeand has a luminous blue shine.

Through this body weave thechakras, meridians and chi life-force carry energy down from lessdense levels into the physical body.If this body is healthy it will radi-ate vitality. What determines thehealth and vitality of this part ofour aura is our attitude to health, exercise and nutrition. We alsoneed to take into account our genetic makeup.

At this level of our being we can effect its vitality by exercis-ing, eating well and treating ourselves with respect. If we neglectthis body we can experience loss of vitality, inertia and lack ofwill power. At this level the more we put in the more we get out.
