7th Gate ANCHOR GROUPS

Since there are TWO 11:11 Gate Activations in 2004, this makes the dedication and focus of our 11:11 Anchor Groups more important than ever before.

11:11 Anchor Groups are essential to a successful 11:11 Activation. Without your participation, the Gateways within the Doorway of the 11:11 could not be opened. The 11:11 Gates are activated through an alignment into One Being of the Master Cylinder Group in India with the various Anchor Groups worldwide. The 7th Anchor Groups serve a very vital purpose as the anchoring pegs for the entire Master Cylinder.

As the Master Cylinder and the 7th Gate Anchor Groups form One Being, they make it possible for the new 7th Gate energies to enter the planet and spread all over the world. 11:11 Anchor Groups serve as vital anchoring points for the new 7th Gate energies. They work in close alignment with the 7th Gate Master Cylinder in Udaipur, Rajasthan, India.

First, the Master Cylinder brings the 7th Gate energies into the planet and anchors them into the earth. Next, a direct infusion of the 7th Gate energies are sent to the 11:11 Anchor Groups throughout the world where these energies are anchored and dispersed around the world.

Being part of an 11:11 Anchor Group is a powerful transformational experience. It is unforgettable and a great way of serving to anchor Oneness and the Greater Reality. We urge you all to participate in some way during this momentous event.

ORGANIZING A 7th GATE ANCHOR GROUP

Organizing a 7th Gate Anchor Group in your area is quite easy. An 11:11 Anchor Group can be composed of as few as two people. Here are some easy steps to organize an Anchor Group:

PUBLICIZING YOUR ANCHOR GROUP:

Once you choose to become an 11:11 Anchor, you can start by putting some notices up around the area where you live mentioning that you are organizing an Anchor Group for the 7th Gate Activation of the 11:11. You can contact any friends or acquaintances whom you think might be interested in participating.

It's also important to let us know about your Anchor Group as soon as possible so we can put you on the Anchor Lists on this website. Having your group on the Anchor List is very important because it's read out loud at the Master Cylinder and all the Anchor Groups worldwide so we can consciously align into One Being.

PUBLIC OR PRIVATE GROUP?

Some 11:11 Anchor Groups are private which means that they are not open to the public. This is usually done when there is an already existing group who have worked together for some time. By keeping their group private, they can hold to their focus and serve more effectively. The nice thing about public groups is that anyone can join; although they do often require more preparation.

PREPARATORY MEETINGS?

The next thing to decide is whether you are going to have any preparatory meetings before the 7th Gate Activation on October 30 -31st. There are already some Anchor Groups who have begun meeting once a week. The advantage of this is that the participants will be more bonded and have time to practice the Sacred Dances. They can also plan their Activation Ceremony together. But of course, this requires a bit more dedication and commitment. Or you could have a core group come together for a few weeks prior to the Activation.

YOUR 7th GATE ACTIVATION SITE

Next, you need to find the right place for your 7th Gate Activation Ceremony. This can be either inside or outside. You can do it within a building, out in nature, a private home, in a park or at a sacred site near where you live. The choice is entirely up to you. Often, the perfect location not only calls to you, but makes itself available. Find a really special place.

For the 7th Gate Activation, it feels really important that the Anchor Groups consciously choose the right location for their Activation Ceremony. It shouldn't be merely a matter of convenience. Just as the Master Cylinder site is very carefully chosen, so should be the sites of the Anchor Groups. Try to find a place in your area that has special energy; this will make your Anchor Group much more effective.

One thing that we do at the Master Cylinders, which are always held outside, is be prepared for any kind of weather. Even if it's expected to be sunny, we have a tarp ready for our sound equipment. And we are committed to completing our Activation Ceremony in whatever type of weather we are given. (Luckily, except for 6th Gate, we have always had fairly good weather.)

CREATING A SACRED SPACE

Wherever you hold your Anchor Group, you will need to create a Sacred Space. You can do this by cleansing, purifying, recalibrating and decorating.

If you plan to be outside, you can begin by cleaning up the area. (At the Second Gate Master Cylinder in Ecuador, we began our ceremony by cleaning up the cow dung in the field where we held our Activation. We did this in the most elegant, loving way possible and it actually added a lot to our ceremony. At 6th Gate, we began by picking up all the sharp rocks in our field.)

You might want to make a large circle with rocks on the ground and hold your ceremony within it. Or you might want to make a circle out of flowers, candles or bamboo torches. Do whatever feels right to you to create your Sacred Space. Talk to the land and explain what is about to happen. Ask for its permission and blessings.

If you are holding your ceremony inside a building, you will first want to clear the space of any unnecessary clutter. Make it as clean and empty as possible. Smudge the space and bring in the four elements and some candles. You might want to put flowers there or add some things of beauty such as bright colors or sprinkles of glitter. Do whatever feels right to you. Make it a beautiful, positive, inspiring, fresh Sacred Space.

Since this is a long Activation, you might want to create a rest area in a quiet place and ask participants to bring a blanket and pillow for short rests. Or bring chairs for those who are uncomfortable standing or sitting on the ground for long periods. That's all right as long as some of you keep the ceremony going.

(During the Master Cylinder in Egypt of the original 11:11 Activation in 1992, our ceremony went for 38 straight hours: 2 nights and 1 1/2 days. There were times when we just couldn't go on, so we would take turns lying down in the sand and falling asleep for an hour or two, when we would awaken and leap up and rejoin the always in progress ceremony.)

THE HOURS OF YOUR 7th GATE ACTIVATION

You need to decide on the hours of your 7th Gate Ceremony. Always, the strongest choice will be to have your Ceremony during the same hours that the Master Cylinder is doing their Activation. For 7th Gate, we will begin around 3:00 in the afternoon of October 30 and go until around 9:00 in the morning of October 31st in India's time zone. We may be dancing all night long or we may form a circle and go to sleep for part of the night since the keynote of 7th Gate is Seeing the Unseen and perhaps we are meant to spend part of the time dreaming. You also have this option....

If you do choose to sleep as part of your Activation Ceremony, please make sure that this is done in a very conscious, sacred way. People can lie in patterns like mandalas and be aware that we are still aligned as One Being all over the world. No matter what happens, we should not lose our focus of what we are doing.

If your group is in another part of the world and you don't want to make the commitment to stay up all night to align with the Master Cylinder, that's alright. Just remain focused on the Master Cylinder throughout the time of their Activation.

IF THERE'S MORE THAN ONE ANCHOR GROUP IN YOUR AREA

Sometimes, there will be more than one Anchor Group in an area. When this happens, the Anchor Groups can either choose to combine their groups or continue to hold their own unique focus. We are all part of our One Being whether we align together in large or small groups.

ORGANIZE WHAT YOU NEED TO BRING TO THE 7th GATE ACTIVATION

WHITE CLOTHES:
Everyone will need to find some white clothes to wear since we always wear white for our 11:11 Activations. White symbolizes the purity of our One Being and brings us into a heightened sense of Oneness. You can also wear some bright colors such as scarves with your whites.

MUSIC:
You will need something to play music for the Sacred Dances. You can also have live musicians playing.

BRIGHTLY COLORED SARONGS OR PAREOS OR SCARVES:
Ask everyone to bring a selection of brightly colored sarongs, pareos & scarves for the Dance of the 7 Elements. If you are meeting before the Activation, you can get this sorted out earlier. If not, you need to have enough cloth on hand for each dancer. See 7th Gate Anchor Preparations for a description of this Dance.

FOOD & WATER:
Food isn't necessary, but it sure is nice! If you are going to have a very short Activation, for around 2-3 hours, you won't have time for food. But if you're going to match the hours of the Master Cylinder, food will help. Potluck works well. You also need to have lots of water on hand or ask people to bring some.

Please remind everyone to hold the focus of 7th Gate while they are eating. Just because we're eating, doesn't mean it's time to slip into social chit-chat mode. At that exact moment, something incredible could be taking place at the Master Cylinder. They might really need your support or be sending some amazing energy your way. It's important to remain fully conscious at all times.

STUFF TO SET THE MOOD & DECORATE THE SITE:
Candles, flowers and the like. Wherever you are, create a beautiful, clean space.

LARGE MAP OF THE WORLD:
Of course, if you're a tiny Anchor Group you won't need such a large map, or maybe you don't need a map at all. We always have a large world map at the Master Cylinders. With the latest printout of Anchor Groups, (see:Anchor Group Directory for the list of the actual Gate.) we put bright stickers on the location of each group. It's a very effective visual to align us with all the Anchor Groups.

READ & PRINT OUT THE 7th GATE & 11:11 INFORMATION ON THIS WEBSITE

First, you can begin by reading the 7th Gate information on this website. You can print it out and share it with your group. The best place to start is the 7th Gate Ndex which lists all related 7th Gate material.

Items of particular interest are the Vision of 7th Gate, instructions for the Sacred Dances and the Master List of the 7th Gate Anchor Groups worldwide (see:Anchor Group Directory for the list of the actual Gate.) . It would also be helpful to familiarize yourself with the general information on the Doorway of the 11:11, including the keynotes of each prior Gate. Thus, you can get a feeling for the natural progression of these energies.

You could also read "How to Live Large on a Small Planet" by Solara and do some of the practices within it, especially the One Heart, the GO and the One Eye which can be incorporated into your Group's ceremony.

LEARN SOME OF THE 11:11 SACRED DANCES & ORDER THE MUSIC

Instructions for two of our Sacred Dances are on this website. (If I have time before going to India, I will also put the Lotus Dance Instructions on the website.) You can teach these dances at the Activation itself, or better yet, in some preparatory meetings.
The Starry Processional
The Starry Processional is the only Sacred Dance which has been performed at every one of the 11:11 Activations. It is powerful and deep and highly recommended.
The Earth-Star Dance
The Earth-Star Dance is very worthwhile to do if you have a focused group.
You can order the music for four of our Sacred Dances Now available on CD or cassette!
All the dance music is very good to set the resonance and stay in the 11:11 energies.

11:11 Sacred Dance Music Download:

(It's important to order these as soon as possible, since after October 14th, no-one will be available to mail your orders.)

LEARN THE GROUNDING PRACTICE CALLED "GO"

This simple practice is so helpful for getting your group in alignment with the One and keeping them there. You might want to incorporate it at the beginning of your ceremony and when needed. Whenever you feel the energy starting to waver, it's a good time to bring out the GO. Or if you have people in your group who aren't grounded, take them aside and have them do the GO.

IF AT ALL POSSIBLE, SEND SOMEONE FROM YOUR ANCHOR GROUP
TO THE MASTER CYLINDER.


This is one of the absolutely strongest ways to have a super connected Anchor Group. Always, these Anchor Groups which have a participant at the Master Cylinder are so powerfully connected to us. It really enhances the direct line between us. And for the next Activation, that person can share with your Group some of the things done at the Master Cylinder.

If you would like to organize an 11:11 Anchor Group for the 7th Gate Activation,
please email us so we can put you on the list.

Having your group be on the Anchor List is very important because it's read out loud at the Master Cylinder and Anchor Groups so we can consciously align into One Being.
