The other day, this poem, The Oldest Castle, sprang to mind when I was trying to explain to someone why you mustn't give up too soon when you are dealing with memories and trying to remember a genesis event. After much searching, today I finally found it - dated 5.6.1994.

Here's The Oldest Castle ... a story poem, and a metaphor poem for so many things ...

Playing games is the heart and soul of Project Sanctuary. Here is a simple, fun quest generator to make thousands of different habitats and innumerable different quests to get you started on a journey or a game or a story of your own.

Enjoy!

A crystal healing poem - The Crystal Kingdom.

The poem can be used as an energy evocation at a crystal healing workshop or as a starting point for a crystal meditation.

Once upon a time, in a land not as far away as we might think, there lived a fairy who was very sad indeed.

For it was so that all fairies there had wonderful long tails, very elegant they were and really helped to keep the balance when they flew; and there were sparkly, shiny tails of many colours and all the fairies took great pride in grooming, oiling and massaging their tails so they would be just as proud and shiny as they could be.

A visitor asked if I had any poems suitable for a funeral for a friend. I have three funeral poems here; God's Speed is a funeral poem for a friend; Pyramid for a lover, and Upward for the funeral of a person who had no friends and may not have been a good person in this life. Hope it helps some.

This is a very rare little book of poetry - Fairy Tales by Silvia Hartmann, May 1994. Only 24 copies were printed in the first place, and this is the last known battered survivor.

Fairy Tales contains 23 poems: Tarot - Spell - Silent Mirror - Pyramid - Ghost - Soul Hunter - Scylla & Charybdis - Bride of Christ - Message - Sleeping Beauty - Seagulls - Peter Pan - 100 - Wild Apprentices - Agenda - Sword - Castle - Candle - The Book - To Find The Child - Magic Carpet - Waterway - Bedtime. Enjoy.

To me, poems are a way to express oneself without having to look over the shoulder at ol' Granma grammar, without some teacher standing by with a rod to hit your knuckles if you says somming what they dunnot likes.

Freedom with words.

Do as you please, what you will; I sometimes do. Here's why I love Misty Mornings ...

A gentleman wrote: "I would love to write a love poem for my wife - it is our anniversary - but I'm no good with words ... Can you recommend a poem for a husband who can't write a love poem?"

So I wrote one specially for all those gentlemen out there who don't have the words, with material assistance from Lord Lucian, and on their behalf. Enjoy!

Rob Fox writes: I wanted to let you know about my first experience of giving The Gift. I was visiting my Mother, dropping off a DVD I had ordered for her. She seemed really down and complained of cold chills and an icy feeling in her stomach. She said she was feeling a little depressed too. I was about to ask her what she was depressed about when I thought it would be a great moment to try using the Gift.

In February, I set a special Project Sanctuary game for the members of StarFields VIP - to become a pure energy healer in Pertineri and to treat 12 clients, provided for you by your own energy mind.

This is a challenging game because it involves 12 personal and unique stories of healing to be played wholeheartedly; each person who plays it will of course be sent the exact right clients to help that one unique person evolve. Here are my 12 stories of healing, courtesy of Project Sanctuary, which really is the greatest game on Earth.

A fun little anecdote from a TGS afficionado has a highly strung fashionista girlfriend who was to attend a special event and throwing a tantrum over which one of four possible hair salons to choose for the perfect hair styling.

There's so many things you can do with the Genius Symbols - creative story telling is of course amongst them, and this can have many uses. A recent example is a story for terminally ill children, to inspire them and support them, created with the Classic Game by a student on the Genius Symbol course. Read the story, what the children thought to it and find out the contract that was used.

Dimitra Paraschou from Greece is a Genius Symbol and Project Sanctuary student who volunteers to help out with terminally ill children at her local hospital, talking to them and reading stories for them.

She created a lovely new story, using the Genius Symbols and the Classic Game, something that would entertain but also enlighten and inspire. You can read the story here and also what happened when she told the story of The Pirate's Treasure to the children on the ward.

Imprinting or charging water with intention is one of those things that divides the skeptics from the believers. However, if you are really smart, you'll realise that actions combined with intention have a powerful effect on the human psyche and can be used to bring about positive change, whether you believe in energy or not.

Here's an exercise to create a powerful "magic potion" using the Genius Symbols, your intention and a bottle of plain water that we will turn into Genius Water that money can't buy.

Here is a lovely idea from Dimitra Paraschou, who is a current student on the Genius Symbols Intensive Distance Learning Course:

The Genius Bath By Candle Light.

Enjoy :-)

The completely revised and updated new 2nd Edition of the bestselling The Genius Symbols has just been published.

Read this interview with Silvia Hartmann to find out what's new and different, and how the best book on Genius just got even better ...

I asked for a metasong to start off the new decade on the 1st of the 1st, 2011, and duely, The Time Chamaeleon was delivered to me.

As is the case with classic metasong, it wants to be spoken and heard rather than just read; so if you read the Time Chamaeleon out aloud, you will get more of a sense what it is about and why it is here ...

Today is Winter Solstice and it is cold.

Gather around the fire, and I will tell you a story ...

Infinite Creativity by Silvia Hartmann

"Give Me Something Beautiful Today ..." is an example of what you can say to your own energy mind to set the contract for a vision or a Project Sanctuary experience. This is a slightly more advanced version of the simple instant energizing habitats, healing habitats or sleep habitats as it goes beyond just taking in the energy of that world and into an actual threshold shift.

So here is the story ...

Time Sand is a short fantasy fiction story that was originally created as an illustration for The Genius Symbols 1st Edition - how to use the Project Sanctuary Classic Game to create a habitat and a story that plays within it.

But there is more to this story than meets the eye ... :-)

There is no doubt in my mind that Soul Pilot work reaches the aspects that other healing methods don't reach, and that doing Soul Pilot work has profoundly positive effects on a person.

These include ...
