     Ronald L. Holt is the 
      world director of the Flower of Life organization. He's also one of those 
      who is truly tuned in to the Sacred Geometry of All Life Everywhere and 
      can talk about it with passion and lucidity.
 Here, he describes the 
      Christ Grid for us, how it relates to the previous grid configuration, and 
      what this means for our future on Planet Earth.
 
 Julia: Can we 
      start with what a grid actually is? When did the grids come into being and 
      how do they relate to our being?
 
 Ron: In the 
      workshop called "Seed of Life," which is our advanced FOL workshop, we 
      look at similar questions. As far as my research goes, I found that the 
      grids were born at the moment of the Big Bang — at the time that the Void 
      was actually preparing for the birth of the physical universe.
 
 When 
      we speak about the Grid, many of us are reminded of what has been depicted 
      in some books: a matrix of angular energy lines extended above our planet. 
      Although this representation is accurate, there is far more to the Grid 
      than this.
 
 Grids are actually fractal and holographic. They span 
      all of Creation, including its many dimensional levels. They are not just 
      on Earth, but correspond to the entire Physical Universe. The Physical 
      Universe does not exist without these Grids.
 
 The Grids 
      appropriately distribute the life-force energy, provide the templates 
      needed for material Creation, and much more. They are not inanimate, but 
      are a blueprint of Consciousness itself, expressed in harmonic 
      form.
 
 The concept of Grids is easy to understand if one has done 
      some investigation of Sacred Geometry. For those who are new to Sacred 
      Geometry, let me first say that Grids are expressions of energy and 
      consciousness that follow proportions defined by principles of Sacred 
      Geometry, and that they span the entire multidimensional 
      universe.
 
 Sacred Geometry is the expression of geometry related to 
      the evolution of Consciousness: mind, body, and spirit in 
      geometric terms. True Sacred Geometry is not just about static, angular 
      forms. It is organic and living, and in constant evolution/transcendence 
      or devolution/materialization, ascending or descending from one form to 
      another.
 
 So the Grid of the planet is an actual geometric and 
      energetic expression of the principles of Creation that can serve as a 
      bridge between our planet's physical and energetic 
      manifestations.
 
 On Planet Earth, blueprints and templates for 
      construction and purpose of existence are needed if the smallest particle, 
      element, or compound is to congeal and materialize. The blueprint and 
      template for our planet is the Grid itself.
 
 The Grid serves as a 
      guide or blueprint around which muons, quarks, positrons, electron, atoms, 
      and, finally, compounds organize. The Grid ensures proper distribution and 
      alignment of the needed elemental components, which are the building 
      blocks for Creation. It also supplies the proper distribution and 
      alignment of life-force energy and the many frequencies needed to maintain 
      an effective energetic phase relationship of the planet's frequency 
      spectrum.
 
 So a stratification of Grid templates is needed for any 
      element to form. This stratification occurs from spirit to the 
      etheric, to the electrical, to the gaseous, fluid, and denser materials. 
      Consciousness moves through varying gradations of density in order to 
      affect each level, from the most sublime to the most dense.
 
 An 
      organizing Grid is needed for each of the 108 elements in the periodic 
      table in order to maintain order and functionality in the atomic 
      configuration. Without a Grid template, atomic configuration would soon 
      lose its ability to maintain self-organization. Likewise, a Grid is needed 
      for every species of bacteria, fungus, plant, insect, animal, and 
      mammal.
 
 Let's look at the electron diffraction pattern in elements 
      such as beryl and salt:
 
 In these two photos, we can see the atoms 
      stretched across the Grid in an organized fashion. These round electrons 
      line up to form a mandala pattern, just like a platonic solid or a 
      combination of platonic solids.
 
 If we look at Hans Jenney's work in 
      Cymatics, or the patterns created by sound, we can see examples of how 
      electrons form mandalas. If you place sand on a circular metal plate that 
      is capable of holding a musical tone, when you strike the plate, the tone 
      causes the sand particles to form geometric patterns for each note. These 
      are different for each note: Change the note, and you change the 
      pattern.
 
 When we look at Masaru Emoto's work in the book The Messages from Water, or Dr. 
      Lorenzen's work in his book Clustered 
      Water, we can see that there are geometric patterns in water 
      even at the atomic level.
 
 If we look closely at our 3D reality, we 
      will see Sacred Geometry in all things. Minerals organize themselves in 
      Sacred Geometric proportions and we can see this in most gem and mineral 
      books, which depict the respective geometric blueprints.
 
 The 
      planetary Grid is like a garden "trellis." The garden trellis guides vines 
      and other plants to stretch and grow out and up across the latticework in 
      a certain "shape." The two principal elements of a Grid are the 
      latticework and the fabric. Both have qualities or 
      characteristics.
 
 We could call the latticework the masculine aspect 
      and the fabric the feminine. Both work harmoniously with each other to 
      integrate the diversity of life. This is similar to the metal ribs and the 
      waterproof fabric of an umbrella. The metal structure allows for the 
      fabric to be stretched across it so its full functionality can be 
      expressed.
 
 With human beings, can draw a similar analogy. As 
      spiritual beings 
      in a human body, our spiritual aspect 
      is born of a fabric that is so all-encompassing and holographic that it is 
      literally connected with and spans all life and all of Creation.
 
 To 
      place the immenseness of all that into a physical body means that we have 
      to fold up the vast umbrella of our being into a kind of butterfly cocoon 
      and temporarily close it, awaiting the time when we unfurl our fabric and 
      remember who we truly are. Nested and folded within all of us is an 
      infinite expanse of fractal and holographic fabric of tremendous 
      interconnection with all of Creation.
 
 So the Christ Consciousness 
      Grid is the planet's version of this umbrella analogy: a fully opened 
      fabric of Creation that keeps us connected to our origins and stimulates 
      us to evolve forward into reunification. Consciousness Grids hold the 
      memory of cosmic interconnectedness, thus stimulating self-actualization 
      for those who attune to them.
 
 Julia: How 
      would you describe the Christ Grid for those who are not familiar with the 
      concept? Plato described the Earth as having a Dodecahedron Grid. How does 
      the Christ Grid differ from this, and what is it, 
      essentially?
 
 Ron: The 
      Christ Consciousness Grid exists around the Earth and is reported by 
      separate individuals at varying heights above the Earth. I believe that 
      the Grid is seen at these different levels because of its holographic and 
      fractal nature.
 
 The Christ Grid is anchored by its axis at 
      Cairo, in 
      Egypt, and at 
      Moorea, in the French 
      Polynesian 
      Islands near 
      Tahiti. Many of 
      its nodal points are on the surface of the Earth. These nodal points 
      correspond to natural energy power spots that many ancient cultures 
      pinpointed and utilized.
 
 This Christ Grid is different from the 
      Dodecahedronal Grid that Plato described. When you connect the center of 
      the dodecahedronal pentagons with the corners, using five more lines of 
      the same length for each of the twelve pentagons, this creates what is 
      called the Stellated Dodecahedron. This is the form that is associated 
      with "Christ Consciousness."
 
 There is a vast difference in 
      consciousness and experience between the Dodecahedron and the Stellated 
      Dodecahedron.
 
 To gain an understanding of the Christ Grid, it is 
      necessary to look at the preceding stages of consciousness Grids and 
      understand them. These stages are the geometric forms that precede the 
      Stellated Dodecahedron: the tetrahedron, cube, octahedron, icosahedron, 
      dodecahedron, and, finally, the integration of all the forms, the 
      Stellated Dodecahedron, representing the integration of all of our 
      aspects.
 
 The Stellated Dodecahedron, or the Christ Grid, holds the 
      template of all the preceding templates expressed as geometric forms. It 
      is an expression and model of integrated completion and coherent unity of 
      all the foundational templates. The fifth template, or the Dodecahedron, 
      builds the foundation of the Stellated Dodecahedron.
 
 The 
      Dodecahedron represents total surrender to Unconditional Love. This seems 
      to be a challenge point, as many people stop here and lose their way in 
      bliss, feeling as though there is no reason for continuing to 
      evolve.
 
 We wanted to identify the reason for "losing the way in 
      bliss," and we found a clue as we were constructing the Platonic Solids 
      out of tape and equal-size plastic drinking straws. Constructing the 
      solids in this fashion, we found that, because of the geometry, two 
      geometric forms were weaker than the rest and had a very difficult time 
      holding their shape or form. These two are the cube and the 
      dodecahedron.
 
 The Dodecahedron represents Unconditional 
      Love.
 
 Unconditional Love by itself is the sweetest blissful 
      experience. It is a necessary step toward realizing Christ Consciousness. 
      But however blissful, Unconditional Love is missing an important 
      element.
 
 That element is conscious awareness or "mindfulness." I am 
      not talking about being mentally focused. I am referring to mindfulness in 
      the Zen Buddhist description. Mindfulness — the practice of observing 
      one's habits, patterns, and choices — is essential to our 
      evolution.[Note] It is easy 
      to be melted in bliss and then become crippled and unable to be effective 
      in the physical world.
 
 We must clearly see our selves and our level 
      of responsibility, integrity, and impeccability in order to evolve. All of 
      these elements are what strengthen our Dodecahedron and turn it into a 
      Stellated Dodecahedron, enabling it to stand on its own and retain its 
      shape. This is why the Dodecahedron was not named the Christ Consciousness 
      Grid.
 
 The openheartedness of the Dodecahedron requires the internal 
      support of a trinity of personal commitments — impeccability, self- 
      responsibility, and integrity — in order to transcend into the Stellated 
      Dodecahedron or Christ Grid. It takes the integrity and responsibility of 
      honest self-observation and Zen Buddhist-type mindfulness to remain active 
      and aware of whether one is in the bliss state or in the struggle of 3D 
      reality. The Stellated Dodecahedron is about adding conscious awareness — 
      impeccability, self-responsibility, and integrity — to the open heart to 
      create Christ Consciousness realization.
 
 Without commitment to the 
      higher qualities stated above, unity becomes a transitory experience that 
      is dependant upon a leader, instead of being a natural, unfolding process 
      from the individual level. We have all frequently observed open-hearted 
      people who have the best of intentions falling prey to the agendas of 
      other people or to those of their own ego.
 
 If individuals do not 
      commit themselves to impeccability in their behavior, they fall prey to 
      the ego agendas of themselves or others. Openheartedness without conscious 
      mindfulness is an expression of Dodeca consciousness. The Stellated Dodeca 
      is the consciousness of a self-realized being, and that is why it is 
      referred to as the Christ Consciousness Grid.
 
 Christ, or any other 
      Master of this level, exhibits this self-aware consciousness: an 
      exceptionally high level of personal refinement that is practical and 
      attainable for all humans who sincerely discipline themselves to attain 
      it. It is so much more than chasing bliss. This is what is truly expressed 
      in Christ's teachings. He didn't want anyone to follow him. He wanted us 
      to become as he became, a self-aware, enlightened being. The Christ 
      Consciousness Grid exists as a reminder of our true nature and encourages 
      us to attain it.
 
 Julia: How 
      does the Christ Grid affect our consciousness?
 
 Ron: The 
      Christ Grid stimulates us to evolve into conscious awareness with our open 
      heart and with high levels of impeccability and integrity. The Christ Grid 
      also helps us integrate and harmonize a true group unity. The Christ Grid 
      is a unified collective consciousness. This means that we are also 
      preparing our internal templates to integrate and harmonize all of the 
      lifetimes we spent within each culture on this planet, setting the stage 
      to help us feel the oneness of all cultures simultaneously, without bias 
      or prejudice.
 
 There are sub-Grids for each of the seven root races. 
      They can be seen as seven Grid frequencies or colors comprising a rainbow 
      of Grid lines, frequency, and color. The rainbow races are coming into 
      aligned integration with each other as our personal consciousness 
      continues to refine.
 
 In the past, a form of surface tension between 
      colors, frequencies, and intentions separated us. This surface tension is 
      diminishing as we become self-aware and self-responsible for all our 
      actions. As we claim our personal integrity, we no longer project our 
      lessons upon others. This reduces the surface tensions.
 
 At this 
      time, the separation in frequencies creating the seven Christ sub-grids is 
      aligning to become one rainbow-colored Grid. Eventually, as we become 
      truly One, it will become a single, golden color that will eventually 
      evolve to the diamond or crystal-clear level. The crystal or diamond 
      children are already being born on this planet to help accomplish 
      this.
 
 Just as we had a lifetime or more in each culture of this 
      planet, we have also existed on other galactic worlds and cultures. 
      Holographically, we were born into all cultures, on all galactic worlds 
      simultaneously. The Stellated Dodecahedron is also representative of our 
      quest to integrate and harmonize all of our terrestrial and 
      extra-terrestrial lifetimes as a whole experience within this 
      Creation.
 
 Julia: The 
      Christ Grid pushes our negativity to the surface for healing and 
      transmutation, but it is easy to focus on the issue rather than the 
      solution. What attitudes or changes in consciousness do you recommend at 
      this time?
 
 Ron: In terms 
      of changes in attitudes or consciousness that would assist us at this 
      time, let me suggest the following. Most of us have had the experience of 
      feeling separate, alone, hurt, scared, ashamed, unworthy, or incapable. We 
      feel this even though we have always been an expression of the complete 
      fabric of Creation. In essence, we are already complete and 
      perfect.
 
 All of these conditions of self-doubt are attachments that 
      we choose and insist on holding, whether consciously or unconsciously. 
      These attachments, and our insistence upon holding them, distract us from 
      unfurling our holographic fabric and experiencing our true heritage. When 
      we detach and release mentally, emotionally, and physically from whatever 
      tensions we are holding on to, we become bright and free.
 
 This 
      begins with detaching from the merry-go-round of mental thoughts. 
      Developing the skill of "mindful observance" of our own self and our 
      choices means taking steps to honestly observe our destructive patterns 
      and making choices and actions to change them — before someone else forces 
      us to see our own reflection in a much more unpleasant way.
 
 I 
      recommend maintaining a good meditation practice that feels right for you, 
      as long as it does not provide diversion or entertainment away from your 
      own inner self. Deep heart-opening exercises that appeal to you, and 
      especially those that take place in nature, can take you deep enough into 
      the heart to help you release agendas and ego.
 
 I am currently 
      creating a meditation series on CD for the purpose of deepening the 
      open-heart experience in nature. This can provide a deep, experiential 
      reverence for all life where one experiences absolute oneness, and many of 
      the concepts we have discussed become known by the heart instead of 
      understood by the head.
 
 Julia: There 
      seems to be a magnification of energy at this time — whether harmonic or 
      disharmonic. How does this work in relation to the Christ Grid? What can 
      we do about it?
 
 Ron: It has 
      been stated that the Earth is waking up from the Kali Yuga and is 
      transitioning into a period of heightened frequency. It also has been said 
      that the Earth is raising its resonant vibration. People are experiencing 
      these heightened frequencies and responding to them as best as they can.
 
 Many people are also awakening to their Spirit and tuning to the 
      higher levels or possibilities that also increase the mass frequency and 
      the consciousness level. This creates a wave effect through humankind, 
      serving to stir the pot of awakening and focusing our attention upon what 
      really matters. As the frequency rises, it is experienced by whatever 
      polarized aspects within us — negative and positive — we have not yet 
      integrated into unity.
 
 Some people resist the internal pressure of 
      our unresolved personal issues that need to be processed. These issues 
      will continue escalating if they are not addressed, especially as the 
      planetary frequency rises. Often, individuals might then choose to react 
      by acting out and projecting their issues externally upon other people or 
      world situations instead of truly addressing them internally.
 
 The 
      only effective manner I know that can help us handle this increasing 
      pressure is to learn to respond to it instead of reacting. Responding is 
      conscious, and reacting is unconscious. Responding to the pressure means 
      being mindful of our personal habits and patterns and not being afraid to 
      see our dark sides. This helps us learn to carefully choose our actions — 
      mentally, emotionally, and physically. Sometimes this takes time and 
      patience.
 
 In relationship to the Christ Grid, the higher levels of 
      life have always made their frequencies available to everyone at all 
      times. After all, they are us in another form!
 
 As we awaken to a 
      higher sense of purpose and action, we naturally and eventually attune to 
      higher Grid levels until we reach the Christ Consciousness Grid and awaken 
      the Christ Consciousness within us. Life attempts to stimulate us to 
      achieve our highest potential.
 
 Julia: I get 
      that focusing on the light and its vibratory rate can aid in clearing 
      negative mental or emotional states. Is simply focusing on the 5th 
      dimension a solution for "being stuck" that many people seem to be 
      experiencing right now?
 
 Ron: The 
      sensation of being stuck is really a state of being unaware that one is 
      choosing to hold onto an issue rather than release it. This is easily said 
      and harder to realize in practice. We all do this, and we would be best 
      served by practicing detachment and release in the area needed, whether it 
      be the realm of the mental, the emotional, or the physical.
 
 We 
      attain the highest levels of our potential when we release totally and 
      become absolutely "nothing," mentally and emotionally. The Buddhists say, 
      "When we become nothing, we become everything."
 
 In this detached 
      state, there is still a keen sense of awareness and focus, but it is 
      different, and it is much more rewarding because you become more of your 
      true self. So the disciplined practice of detachment from the 
      busy-mindedness or the state of unbalanced emotionality, drama, and 
      neediness is highly effective in bringing absolute peace and 
      harmony.
 
 The practice of impeccability and the mindfulness of one's 
      actions, words, and choices is Christ-Consciousness-Grid-level work — work 
      at the level of the Stellated Dodecahedron — and it will lead to the 
      spiritual 
      development and clarity that most are seeking. Focusing upon a "higher 
      dimension," like the 5th, can often be used as a way to escape the 
      challenges of physical evolution — placing one's attention upon an 
      external idea. What is truly needed, instead, is a clearer focus upon 
      one's own inner choices, patterns, and actions.
 
 Julia: Are 
      there changes that will occur in the DNA because of the Christ 
      Grid?
 
 Ron: 
      Absolutely. And that has been happening for a long time now. Each step we 
      take in our own personal integration and evolution is being written upon 
      our DNA while being reflected around us in our reality. This allows us to 
      tap into more frequency bands of consciousness, thus raising our 
      awareness.
 
 The more we clear ourselves, integrate, and progress, 
      the more we activate our DNA packages. And that, in turn, helps us reach 
      our full potential as individuals and as a planetary 
      species.
 
 Julia: Will 
      the changes in consciousness cause movement in the Tectonic 
      plates?
 
 Ron: They 
      could. In fact, the movement of tectonic places is often really just a 
      reflection of our consciousness as a species. Usually, it has to do with 
      what we are resisting rather than what we are embracing. If you ponder 
      this, I think you will find some interesting insights.

 Note: 
      Ron recommends learning 
      and developing skills in detachment and release, and advises that any 
      number of Eastern-style teachers, as well as martial arts programs, can 
      provide training in this. For those who like intellectual stimulation to 
      help them release attachments, he recommends reading such books as Eckhart 
      Tolle's The Power of Now 
      and Osho's The Diamond 
      Sutra, as well as Neale Donald Walsch's Conversations with God and Lyssa 
      Royal's Millennium: Tools for the 
      Coming Changes.
