Throughout 2009, I am collecting, collaging, copy n pastin’ all types of images related to “gates, gateways, doors, portals, openings”. I’ll spend my time getting lost online to locate such images. Also, when I visit Motherland Southeast Asia, I hope to have a camera handy at all times to take pictures of this inspiration/fascination of mines for 2009.

NOTES ON 11 YEAR – 2009 ENERGIES
From Winter Soulstice 2008 Gathering with Michael Dove in San Diego
The text below is a transcription of Michael Dove’s insights and “channeling” of Year 2009 as an 11 Year ~ a master number year. A few questions are interspersed between his sharings and clarifications. Perhaps, something from this “text” might help to inspire or clarify your journey during this auspicious year.
This is a year that truly deals with our souls, going deep into hidden places and spaces in our soul and bringing it forward and out. Like a divine cleaning agent. The kind of dramas and fears that already started in 2008 will continue for a while into 2009. This year is going to be especially critical, like how we indicated that last year would be a frightening year. That sense of fear becomes more acute for many.
2009 is a graduation year and contains the energy of ascension. With that ascension, it carries what we could loosely call Judgment Day. Judgment Day and Ascension. The fear is about Judgment Day. According to the archetype, all sins are revealed. Through it all, there is an ultimate possibility of ascension. We will experience that ascension in the last fourth of the year. Leading up to that point, for many, it will feel like death. It will feel like an existential fear. We have already sensed that and it will be even more intense and acute, but it is necessary to bring things forward and out. The ability and call to calm others down and be the stable guide is going to be even more critical. If you are the one with answers, people will come to you. They will actively seek our clarity, insight, and guidance. A similar circumstance was there in 2008. It becomes much more XXX in 2009. The quality of creative, nimble ways of thinking will be more sought after.
This is the time to really dream, create, present our fully developed vision, and people will come to actualize it. That’s the nature of the opportunity, the quality of it, the atmosphere of possibility. The sense of a miracle is that it happens in a way that 4 or 5 years ago would have taken forever to get together. The quality of this is that it happens much more quickly. The task as creative, innovative leaders is to put it out there. Take advantage of the opportunity that it is and take advantage of the ascension experience and the creative actualization experience!
Part of the challenge that people will be experiencing will be the threat of disease. It’s like a crystallization of stress, fear, and old fear coming to the surface. For some, the only way for them to deal with ascension and death (leaving the body to ascend) is through fear, because that is the only frame of reference they have. The good news is that we embody the ascension and can actualize immediately. Transformation can happen spontaneously.
Especially in the second half of the year, people will experience what I call a “Cloud of Divine Possibility” that hangs over all of our heads. It becomes real to a few but enough people. It is a collection of raw ascension energy. It will get clearly defined at the end of the year, like the clarity that we had at the end of the new One Year, i.e. new politics, new reality, new era). The technology that will come will be inspired, has been ascending for a while now. It takes on a special inspiration. The true nature of interconnectedness becomes more real. The possibility of relationship and harmony – we get to see that. The sense of an “Us” and a collective leap forward is something we conceptualize as a possibility. Toward the end of the year, it becomes less frightening and becomes a new understanding. It becomes a new “destructure.”
The new intra-psychic skill of managing the dreams becomes more accessible. Being consciously aware in dreams becomes a more common mode to be. Individuals that are able to be a guide in this realm, to awaken to the dream aspect, will be a recognized thing. More people will talk about it. They will generally be individuals who are more empowered as leaders.
2009 will be the time when we collectively take charge of the dream. We take ownership of it and let it be real. As all these things occur, with great deal of drama on into the spring and summer, we will find a way to collectively ascend. When we see the drama, we can hold fast to where it is heading and not get knocked off center by it. People will be afraid, feel like they are dying. But it’s actually ascension. There will be a major force to let go. This is the sense of the duality of the path: ascension and drama. It is an emergence of a new Us that occurs. It is through this drama and sense of trauma that creates and facilitates that. We get there through this gateway.
The One Year is like an intense birth. The Eleven Year is like two One Years. It is like the One Year amplified. It is a Gateway Year. A year of Collective Birth and Ascension. Births can be very dramatic before we move through that gate. The way to get through drama is through understanding it. Labor is tedious. A dramatically new world come out of it this year and does not get clear until the very last part of the year.
Throughout the process of birth, we can be the old experienced midwife, calm and centered. That is the challenge. It will be about calming everybody else down. As a practitioner, most of people’s challenges are transformations they are experiencing. We can help them by understanding the nature of the transformation.
This is a time that was very predicted and foreseen. The drama of it is like a burning off, clearing, deep purging of fear. We will find that you and your experience will become much stronger and, paradoxically, much calmer with this time. In a sense, it’s like it is our time in terms of people exploring an alternative, non-mainstream mode. All these qualities we developed for our survival all of a sudden become the skills people are seeking. It will be a dramatic flip that occurs.
QUESTION: The closing bookend to this Eleven Year is a gateway, as both an end and beginning.
It is about the Gateway and life stages that we are walking out of and into.
QUESTION: When was the last Eleven Year? (Maybe 1901.)
We are called to be more fully conscious midwives. We will be reminded of the Eleven Year, because people will be pulling on our energy, and we will have to not buy or play into things. Business may be down, but psychics are getting busier.
QUESTION: On being sober…
There is a force that throws sand in the eyes of the One Who Witnesses. That force will get shrill in a cartoon-like extreme. There is a call to cultivate the One Who is Sober, not the One who is hysterical and tries to sabotage the sobriety. Be the One Who Validates.
The essential point of this is that this is an Age of Collective Ascension. There is the Avatar that comes to move humanity forward and now we are moving into the Age of the Collective Avatar. We are arousing people from a nightmare. It is about connecting to the calm center point. It is about being the One. We are called on to be extraordinarily wise. We have to be especially careful. We have to be bold, experienced eyes.
QUESTION: Why our particular method of awakening?
We give the kind of healing that we want to experience. It is about giving what you wish. We give the healing that we most desire. That is where we get our medicine. With each mode, it gets more refined. That gracious mode which is almost exclusively joy is there on every path in every direction. You get to choose and define the kind of awakening you do, i.e. Dove’s Desert Awakening which is nice, fun, and colorful. You get to set the shape, form, and parameters. It is about accepting one’s identity as the Awakener and defining how we would like to do it and how we do not want to do it. This is where choice and free will does come into play. It is not a chaotic awakening. We are not helpless.
QUESTION: What is the Cloud of Divine Possibility?
It is Ascension Energy that hangs above everybody’s head, individually and collectively.
QUESTION: I have a fear of entering the wound. I see and know it as a barrier to creativity.
It is about the fear of inflicting wounds and feeling wounds. Art is a relationship to self and community. It is important to receive validation from the community, that it is with you. The validation gives permission for realness on an artistic level. Permission for authenticity.
QUESTION: Unconditional love is the most powerful form of medicine. Maybe this is about giving yourself permission for self-love and to be loved. Where did you learn that that was not okay?
This is about the challenge to step into the identity of the guide, the One who is the midwife. To understand that it is appropriate. We don’t have to second-guess that core soul level contract.
Eleven is a master number. It is not a puppy dog, and it knows it. It has a consciousness about itself. It is dignified and elevated. At the end of it, all of the real wishes, desires, goals, and dreams will be actualized. To everyone else, it looks like chaos, but the actual reaching of these inner goals are there. All of that which we’ve been wishing, our hopes, are here.
