Description - The Veil Is Lifted by Bonnie Pike-Blake
Ten years have passed since Elizabeth's nearly tragic accident in the Superstitions sent her through a sipapu into an ancient Apache world. Now, without warning, the cancer that had once been in remission had returned with a vengence. In an attempt to find her way back through a vortex and find healing again, she leaves on a healing quest with her beloved dog, Ranger (A Dog Named No) and her newest shepherd Ruger.The Superstition Mountains is the home of vortexes - also called Sipapu's by some Native American Tribes. These are areas of high energy concentrations, originating from magnetic, spiritual, or other unknown sources. They are considered portals to other realms, both spiritual and dimensional. The Apache Indians believed the Superstition wilderness contained a hole leading into the underworld However, unlike other vortex areas, which are more or less permanent, easily sought out and experienced by crowds (such as the four Sedona Arizona vortexes, Mount Shasta, and the Oregon Vortex), the Superstition Vortexes are much more mysterious, subtle, and unstable. Always in a state of flux - they open and close at will and without warning. For those who believe in ghosts, the Superstitions are a good place to find them. Exposure, accidents, and violence have claimed the lives of many who followed the lure of greed or who disrespected the Thunder God of the Mountain by trying to take something away from the mountain. So, if you could pick a place to meet your maker, the saguaro-studded volcano crated Superstitions, surrounded by rolling grasslands, abrupt canyons and sheer cliffs would definitely make for a glorious sendoff. On the spiritual level, it is imperative that you maintain your attitude of respect. If you happen to wander into "dead zones" (places that make you feel immediately uncomfortable or even sick) then back out slowly. If you feel that something is not right, that some place might be dangerous, that you are being watched and the feeling becomes oppressive or if you feel presences you are uncomfortable with then it is best to leave whatever area this occurs in. If this means a detour, then so be it. Do not let your route dictate your safety and, if your navigation skills are not up to plotting such a route, simply go back the way you came. Discretion is the better part of valor in this area.When it comes to hiking in the Thunder Gods territory, your best defense is an attitude of respect. Just remember, many people have gone into the Superstitions - never to be seen again...
