When I was Carolyn Brent in September of 1999 at age 43
Changing your name changes the game of your life. I was introduced to this idea in 1996 whenI met someone who had legally changed her name (and her life as a result) through the Kabalarians.
At that time name reports were NOT free but they had a special free name report offer going on when I checked their website so I took advantage of that way back then.
I was quickly amazed at how accurate the report was describing my life with all three of my legal names:
Carolyn Carter from my birth in 1956 up to 1978
Carolyn Van Cleve from 1978 to 1990
Carolyn Brent from 1990 to 2006
And I had this powerful sense come over me that I needed to change my name. It wasn’t practical then (married and busy Mom of four children) so I let it go but on the verge of my 50th birthday in the midst of my second divorce I realized it was the perfect time to change my name to something I was choosing for my self. I also decided it was important to choose as consciously as possible.
The only living family in my life at that time were my four children (now mostly grown – the youngest was about to turn 16) and when I asked them how they felt about me changing my name they all said they didn’t care because they would still call me MOM! Read More
Stay tuned for details on a super cool gathering of women coming soon happening in late 2021!
In previous gatherings we have celebrated and honored Nicole and all the priestess who have gone before including my MOM – Merilyn Helen Judd Massey.
Here is an interview I did with the lovely Dionne Ruff Sloane
about my Priestess Journey and how it Changed My Life.

Every month that has 31 days features three of the days of the week 5 times depending on what day of the week that month begins.
For example, in July, 2011 there were 5 Fridays, 5 Saturdays, and 5 Mondays in July that got a lot of attention probably because it represented the weekend days. I remember seeing several sources talking about it being a rare event that only occurred every 823 years. I was skeptical about this figure since what five days show up in the month of July are a feature of the numbering system of our calendar that tends to repeat every 6 years though depending on how these show up it can occur in 5 years based on our Leap Year situation.
So though I was skeptical back in 2011 it felt like a message to pay attention to because I had turned 55 earlier that year. So of course I noted it.
Contrary to the claims about this only happening every 823 years – this event played out again in July of 2016 and will occur in July 2022 and July 2028 as part of a regular pattern that repeats about every 6 years though it can be affected by a leap year as was the case in 2016.
May 2020 features 5 Fridays, 5 Saturdays, and 5 Sundays and 6 years later in May 2026 this pattern plays out again. For those who like numbers and love to figure these things out – you can do more research on the 31 day months and how they repeat certain patterns over the years regarding what three days are featured five times in a 31 day month.
Basically any month that has 31 days and begins on a Friday will have 5 Fridays, 5 Saturdays, and 5 Sundays. This goes for any day of the week the month begins in a 31-day month for example if the Month Begins on a Monday there will be 5 Mondays, 5 Tuesdays and 5 Wednesdays or if a 31-day month begins on Tuesday, it will have 5 Tuesdays, 5 Wednesdays, and 5 Thursdays featuring the days we consider the middle of the week.
Most months feature 5 in some way but unless it is a month with 31 days it is unlikely to have three days of the week show up 5 times in a month. Since our calendar is number based this doesn’t have astrological meaning however the number magic is worth noting.
A Different Example around Friday the 13th.
Another monthly pattern that has captured my attention in the past is noticing the months that begin on a Sunday always feature Friday the 13th. See Article on the Number 13
In 2019, 2021, 2022 , 2024 its only happening once. Two occur in 2020 and 2023 and three occur in 2026. More dates and details are HERE 2019 December 2020 March and November (Leap Year) 2021 August – 2022 May 2023 January and October 2024 December (Leap Year)
FIVE Number Magic
Five is the number of adventure, radical change and transformation. It seems to be a number with particular significance to our human bodies as the majority of us are born with five fingers, five toes and five senses.
5 is a prime number (as is 55) and one of the numbers of the Golden Mean or Golden Ratio (one the most predominate patterns found in nature showing up in many plants and flowers and even fruits have fivefold symmetry).
5 is one of the sacred numbers of Venus who forms a pentagram in the sky with 5 different helical risings over 8 years. The Venus cycle connects with the Fibonacci series of numbers 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, etc. where each number is formed by adding the previous two numbers.
5 Venus risings in 8 years just so happen to be linked with the Fibonacci series because in that 8 years Venus has also made 13 sidereal transits around the Sun.
Message of the Number 5
Some believe that when the number 5 shows up your guardian angel is sending you a message about changes on the horizon.
5 is a number that loves change, unpredictability, being independent in thoughts and actions – in essence a trickster that reminds us that life is ever changing and the one thing we know for sure is what we know or what IS now – will most likely change.
In keeping with the Number 5 here are 5 questions to ponder:
Are you open to change?
Do you resist change?
Do you change easily?
Are you willing to change?
How does change help inform your life?
Note from Cayelin: I have captured this information from the late Nicole Christine’s website and offer it here in honor of her vision and what she brought through from 2006 to 2008.
As a founding member of the Sacred Order of the New Earth Venus Templar’s and being tasked by Nicole to include the Venus Cycle in her Divine Creation High Priestess process that she asked me to carry on two days before she died (October 18, 2008) I offer this page that includes some of Nicole’s writings about the Venus Templars.
Many of us still work with this energy on the inner and by visiting the Temple Nodes on the Earth. If you would like more information contact me through my website at cayelincastell.com or visit magdalenemysteries.com.
My intent for the future is to add thoughts and insights about how to continue taking the seeds of what has already been created and giving them what they need to bloom!

Through the power of divine guidance and inner authority, New Earth Venus Templars are in service to Divine Creation in accordance with the Divine Design for their individual and shared lives.
On Magdalene’s Feast Day, July 22, 2006, Akashic Record Keeper Thoth, through Maia Nartoomid, revealed our priest/ess lineage’s ancient connection to Magdalene’s seven Venus Temples. The potent Venus Temples energies, through group synergy, activate the temple codes, which in turn activate and amplify personal codes.
Sedona Venus Temple Node and Ceremony Feb 3, 2007
These animating light body codes are seed points of our innate gifts, capacities, and passions that are pressing to the surface of consciousness for release at a time when it is essential for us to actualize our fullest divine human potential and co-creatively construct a New Earth. Corresponding, a Venus Temples Process emerged out of the work done by Magdalene Sisters who bridged the seven temples energies at the Temple of the Midnight Sun in France in September 2006 and 2007. (See the Venus Temples Manual by Nicole Christine available through Magdalenemysteries.com)
This bridging ceremony took place at La Pique, which is the center-point of this Venus Temple pentagram. La Pique overlooks La Val Dieu, the Valley of God, where according to a 1999 Akashic Record reading by Maia Nartoomid, in 1678 BC, I, two other priestess sisters (Cayelin Castell and Gina Gavaris), and the soul that was Mary Magdalene (prior to her historic incarnation with Christ) took vows to fulfill the planetary purpose of the soul of the Magdalene.
In that reading, Maia said, “Magdalene is calling you Hespara, which is derived from Hesperus, which means Venus. There is a strong energy of the Goddess principle of Venus connecting the two of you. She indicates that the point of recognition, fulfillment, and dedication you feel in your connection to her is anchored in the Temple of Venus in the Earth.”
By returning to our vow-making locale in 2006 (Cayelin and Nancy Safford returned with a group in 2007), that connection was reactivated and the next level of service to the planetary purpose of the soul of the Magdalene was charged. That level was anchored in the Ruby Fire Venus Temple in the USA on February 3, 2007 when thirty-five priestesses, priests, and partners initiated as founding members of the New Earth Sacred Order of Venus Templars (SOVT). Members of this order are in service to Divine Creation in accordance with the Divine Design and Divine Timing for their lives. This service includes attunement with Venus Temples that contain seeds of light that aid us in our planetary transition into the New Earth Star. Venus Templars willingly and appropriately: access and amplify the light codes within the planetary Venus Temples; tend the planetary Venus Temples, within and without; access, amplify, and express the Life Animating Codes in their Light Bodies and DNA; assist others in accessing, amplifying, and expressing their Life Animating Codes.
Precepts & Principles for the New Earth Sacred Order of Venus Templars
Code of Honor Restore honor among men and purity among women through the Wisdom of Divine Intelligence and the Power of Divine Love in Oneness With the All.
Venus Templar Treasure Knowing that the treasure is within. That everything we need to know, when we need to know it, is within and that heart-centered Divine Love is the key that opens the treasure chest.
Inner Temple Mysteries A considerable amount of Venus Templar work takes place on the inner realms through Dreamtime connections with one another, the Venus Temples Oversoul, and Divine Creation. Inner linkups also take place each Full Moon to inwardly tend the Venus Temples and to deepen bonds among members of the Sacred Order of Venus Templars.
The Venus Temples hold the keys to a large movement of celestial forces as they interact with the planet through the “Venus nodes” on the earth to reveal the “truth of the Sacred Wedding” in the heavens and Venus’ essence in her role of celestial guardian of love and beauty to us on Earth.
These temples are the wombs containing what could be called “Seeds of Light” for an Age soon upon us, when Venus, our Sister and Guardian in this solar system, will aid us in our transition into the New Earth Star. This process has indeed already begun! Temple names are in “Aloii”, the most ancient of languages, derived from the electrical waves in the brain, that when firing, create actual “fire letters”. This is true for the electrical impulses in the heart-brain (the neurons within the heart) as well.
A’ratu – Temple of the Golden Flame on the slope of Mt. Ararat, Turkey — holding the codes of the First Principle — the Word, Logos of the See. Golden Flame
I’uawa – Temple of the Pure Flame near Alexandria, Egypt—Bright Star —White Light Flame. Carries the Pure Essence of the Stellar Transmissions.
Manutansha – Temple of the Midnight Sun – The Temple in France is the place of Sanctuary, Still Point, Hope for the Future, Inverted Ray (Flame) of Midnight that will in the future release the GUIDING RAYS OF ESCHATON.
Esh’una – Temple of the Heart Tone – Beneath the Alhambra, in Spain – Heart of the Dove – Violet Flame of Divine Accord, Harmonizing the Rhythms through the Holy Tone.
Sichana’li’el – Temple of the New Covenant – Canary Islands* and is an Atlantean Venus Temple Node – Complete Hologram of the New Covenant – The Light Program Initializing of the New Earth Star – Blue Flame.
Ruha’keesh – Temple of the Ruby Fire – Sedona, Arizona is the Path of Qualifying The Nature of the Divine Feminine. It is the Ruby Fire… the burning away of all dross to see the true form.
Owii’nemkaka – Temple of the Gem Body – Kaua’i (underneath the San Marga Monastery grounds) – a Lemurian Venus Temple Node – Prima Matra – First Matter Arisen to the New Octave – Emerald Flame.
*The Atlantean Canary Island Venus Temple Node was activated December 27, 2007 through January 6, 2008 after being dormant for 40,000 years.
All the information on this page was on Nicole Christine’s website.
Initiation Through the power of divine guidance and inner authority, members of the New Earth Sacred Order of Venus Templars initiate in service to Divine Creation in accordance with the Divine Design for their lives. This initiation transpires in Living Ceremony, facilitated by a Venus Templar Guide and witnessed by one or more initiated Venus Templar members.
Initiation Preparation Potential initiates who have emerged as New Earth priests or priestesses engage in an orientation process facilitated by the Venus Templar Coordinator (VTC). Other potential initiates engage in Venus Templar Preparatory Process co-designed with the VTC.
Titles and Degrees of Initiation Titles held by Venus Templars represent functions they have agreed to fulfill. Degrees held by members represent the degrees of activational exploration of Venus Templar mysteries they have chosen to pursue. In the spirit of the Sacred Circle or Round Table, none of the titles or degrees is hierarchical in nature. In New Earth consciousness we co-create with Spirit and one another.
Initiations Initiation ceremonies take place at New Earth Sacred Order of Venus Templars gatherings held at a Venus Temple site, at Venus Templars regional events, and in privately arranged settings.
Venus Templars Logo During Magdalene Lisa Michaels’ trip to France in 2006, she saw the connection to the equal-armed Templar and Languedoc (Toulouse) crosses and the sacred geometry formed with the solstices, equinoxes, cross quarter points, astrology archetypes, and the elemental forces. The equal-armed cross, enclosed by a circle, shows the connection to the wheel of the year and the axis of the cardinal zodiac points of Capricorn/Cancer, the feminine axis, crossed with Aries/Libra, the masculine axis. Often inmystery school traditions the cross is shown with a rose at its center,letting us know thatthe hidden meanings lies “sub rosa” or under the rose. The rose is the sacred pattern that Venus makes in her celestial travels and shows the connection to the Venus Temple nodes. Together, Lisa and illustrator/graphic designerHigh Priest Prescott Hill co-created what was originally the logo for the 2007 Priest/ess Community Convergence. With their permission, it is now the Venus Templars logo and seal.
In 2008 I was going through a box and unexpectedly came across a newspaper article tribute to my Great Grandfather Hubert Osborn Judd in The Garden City Daily Telegram (Garden City, Kansas) dated in March of 1940 (the actual date was missing from my copy though he died on March 8, 1940.)
My great grandfather Reverend Hubert Judd died 16 years before I was born. Hubert was father to Dr Merrill Hubert Judd who was my grandfather and Merrill was my mother’s father. She was named after both her father Merrill (Merilyn) and her Mother (Helen) Judd Massey. By the time she died my mother’s name included my father’s last name and her second husbands last name – Merilyn Helen Judd Carter Massey. Of course she dropped the Judd when she got married and dropped the Carter when she remarried dying with her legal name being Merilyn Judd Massey.
The article I found included the last sermon Reverend Hubert O. Judd ever gave and it was published in honor of his death. This is the article as it appeared in its entirety. Read More
Me and Bella the new Tucson Jaguar on my birthday 2020
See Mayan Jaguar Days for 2020 below and an update to the Tucson Jaguar situation.
Ix (eesh) is Mayan for Jaguar
Since 1996 when I first encountered a Black Jaguar in a vision (story below) and most especially from early 2019 to early 2020 Black Jaguar has been growing in my field of awareness.
This sparked the return of Jaguars to the forefront of my awareness. I share that story below but here on February 13, 2020 I just saw this image of a black Jaguar posted on Facebook by someone in Olive Branch Mississipi. The photo was taken in 2016 but it just came across my screen of awareness today.
Jaguar Medicine
I was born on the day of the Jaguar according to the Mayan Calendar though I didn’t know it until April of 2005 when I had a session with Mayan Elder Don Alejandro. He is the head of the National Council of Maya Elders, a 13th generation Quiche Maya Spiritual Leader. At that same time, I also heard him speak at a conference in Tucson. He was quite clear that the December 2012 hype was not something coming from the Mayan elders. He explained that the Mayans had many Calendars for different purposes and there was not just one day in any of those calendars that would change it all. (More on that another time)
.
1996 Black Jaguar Appearance in my Awareness
During my session with Don Alejandro when he told me I was born on the day of the Jaguar – I felt myself slip into an altered state taking me back to a vision I had nearly 10 years earlier during a healing session. In the session I was surprised to see myself face to face with a Black Jaguar.
Many do not exercise their right to vote in elections – siting reasons such as: elections are rigged anyway so it is a waste of time, or there is no one that is trust worthy enough to vote for, or all the candidates are bought by corporations and those with money so that is who the politicians serve. All of this may be true (or partially true). That said it is still important to exercise our right to vote.
Many are discouraged from voting because it has become so difficult to do in person. However, most places now have the option to vote by mail (that is the one I chose because it gave me plenty of time to consider my vote) or early voting places are also available in most areas.
More people of voting age did NOT vote in the last election (2016) than did vote. Yes, there is discrimination and it is difficult for minorities and the poor to vote due to our unfair way of registering voters, creating districts and closing polling places. Yes the system needs a lot of improvement or maybe a complete overhaul. However, it also needs our participation. Just think how different our world would be if more of us took the time to share our voice through our vote.
I have been thinking about sharing this story for a long time now in support of others who have been through similar and even more challenging experiences. It is scary for me to do this and it feels important to honor those who have had the courage to step up and risk so much to bring what has been in the shadow for them – into the light.
With the September, 2018 current events playing out so dramatically I find I am deeply and powerfully affected in ways I had not imagined I would be.
It is Personal – Not Political
This is NOT about a political ideology. I do my best to stay out of the “this is right and this is wrong” political polarization I see happening, especially as it has escalated in recent times. Sharing my story is not meant to further fuel the polarization as that is not helpful.
What I am sharing is what I’ve experienced and how troubling it is we live in a world that continues to minimize the challenges of sexual abuse victims. In addition to the main story I am about to share – I have experienced sexual assault and harassment in other arenas listed in my timeline below.
Those in positions of power have had free reign to terrorize and abuse both men and women in many of the places where we should feel safe and protected including home, family, work place, government and religious institutions. Something that seems so striking to me is the denial of the abusers and the lasting impact these experiences have caused so many, including those in personal relationship with the victims. I was married to a victim (explained further on) and the effects were traumatic for him and ultimately his loved ones, children, family, friends and of course Me Too.
For me the question is – how to do we heal and forgive while also creating a climate of accountability for all involved? How do we do this without turning it into a political circus so genuine healing can occur? I don’t have answers and it seems the answers have been illusive. Yet, the courage of the women and men who have come forward to share their Me Too story is already having an impact in raising awareness around how prevalent this has been and continues to be. Often simply being heard, believed and supported affects a potent and under estimated empowering start to the healing process. Read More
This post is a way to honor and remember my Mom, Merilyn Massey. She died on August 18, 1998 just before her age 65 birthday. My Mom was born on September 6, 1933. The story of her remarkable transition and the gifts of her conscious death process are HERE
Merilyn had a bachelor’s degree in Journalism and a master’s degree in Professional Writing but somehow she never found the time to complete or publish her own writing. So in honor of her desire to be a published writer I am sharing the beginnings of a book she had written that I found on a yellow legal pad a couple of years after she passed.
I typed them up way back then and they are presented here exactly as she hand wrote them. I found it interesting to notice that she writes about many of the same things I do! I guess I am my mother’s daughter after all… Read More
One way to stay centered and connected to greater meaning, purpose and the transformational intent of these game changing times is through conscious breathing and intentional blessings. Conscious breath has had many names in different cultures including prana and chi. The Druids called it “Awen” (breath of divine inspiration). Read More
