Perhaps we need to bring back the old Conga-line, (one-two-three-four-kick!, one-two-three-four-kick!, and so forth) while we travel the labyrinthine path of the FOTCM symbol.
We could symbolically link arms across the planet.
Thanks for the visual of the Conga-line and the FOTCM symbol. I am thinking RX may have some good ideas too:
As for the mechanics,
- I still like the cadence of the traditional greek dances that you posted as well. The one thing that all of the greek dances have in common is the 5/4 rhythm and that may be important. The 5/4 rhythm is unusual ( at least here in Western culture) and has such a lovely meditative quality that I would keep it. Besides, why change something that may have worked in our ancient past- no point in reinventing the wheel so to speak.
It doesn't hurt to think it out so to speak. As far as planning a day like "Moon-day" I guess we might need to adjust it starting from one base location and determine the "time" zones in order to make it the same "time" for a more global event. It is an interesting idea to me. :)
Hey, I would really really really want to contribute in such fashion. I don't have anybody that I know willing to dance, so if somebody needs an eight member... I never have enough money to donate and I suck at English, so if I could give in this area I would be thrilled.
Plus I have good coordination :)
I’m currently experimenting with a one person version of this dance that I created for myself. I haven’t posted here in a long while but just a reminder that I am a dance teacher, choreographer and Shaman and I’ve been thinking about this dance technique on and off over the years since this thread was started because I ‘knew’ I could do something with it but no new insights ever emerged for me so I just left this experiment sitting on the back burner. Over the past month Ive felt soooo compelled and almost pushed to compose this and when I finally began, all of the elements started falling into place one by one in that lovely state of flow that all of us who are artists do our best work in.
I felt guided to look into vortex geometry in order to figure out how many times the spiral needed to be repeated, and I figured out how to harmonize the movements that I created for myself with the music, intention and vibration (I think that was why I couldn’t put it together before this because my own vibration wasn’t high enough to recognize and feel the energetic nuances; I wasn’t sensitive enough). I also understand how flowing water or ley lines need to be considered when you choose a place to create the spiral. The only thing that I haven’t tried adding yet are lyrics but I know they will really help focus the intention and make it easier to hold throughout the dance because it takes more than 30 minutes to complete and this is not a time for thinking random thoughts!
For music, I’m using a simple shamanic drumming on YouTube that I can easily put my dance steps to while I wait for my daughters boyfriend who is a composer to create the exact music that conveys the mood I‘m wanting -not holding my breath on that one cuz he’s 21 and easily distracted:) and there’s a Solar eclipse coming up that I refuse to miss.
Anyway, I know how this works now in a much more comprehensive way and I am very confident that I could facilitate scaling this composition technique up to include more people with a chosen intention as well as help create and fine tune all of the required elements like the music, dance steps and lyrics so that they harmonize and align.
Now that I’ve done it a few times, I really do get the sense that it is like a bridge to somewhere new and considering what our current reality looks like, I‘m feeling like this might be the perfect time to build it.

Wow...this is one of those "oldies" session bits that had been "ringing" in my ears for the past couple of weeks...so it is kind of funny to see that you have posted back in this thread...
It would be great indeed if we could find such dance...
There is a very cool spot where I live that would be great for that, a "circle" composed of 6 natural monoliths (about 2-3m high) and several oaks...very special place.
Update!
Over the last few years I've created and have been continuing to work on this spiral dance (even though I've been lousy at posting) and I'm very excited to announce some positive and very interesting results! I haven't had any genetic tests done to be able to confirm this but from what I've read, I would say I experienced some kind of DNA activation after performing the dance which I've done 9 times now. I've also noticed a very distinct magnetic anomaly at the very center of my spiral that is getting larger! I've been keeping a journal of how this dance has developed, the adjustments I've made along the way and how it's been affecting me that I'm happy to add here too if there is interest but for now, I'll stick to a few more noticeable highlights:
As far as my belief that it is affecting my DNA somehow; after three of the dances, I went from an energetic high after the dance, well into the evening to an extreme fatigue right upon waking the next morning that continued for days with no other reasonable explanation. I slept enough each night, wasn't overwhelmed with too much work or stress from any other circumstance and still suffered from a kind of fatigue that made the smallest tasks seem too exhausting to even consider. I've never experienced something like this before. My body temperature was also affected which was very surprising. I've always been a cold person and have been thankful to this forum for the research into Iodine thats been helping me regulate my metabolism and warm up my chronically cold hands and feet. But even with that, I began feeling too hot for days on end after performing this dance. I remember I even jumped in the car in a T-shirt one morning when it was 3C to take my kid to school! That is not like me. I'm usually the person curled up by the fireplace wearing wool sweaters. After another dance, I remember feeling hot, then chilled, then hot again with this repeating for days- so odd.
Beyond my personal experience, there is also a very interesting magnetic anomaly that has developed and is getting larger in the center of the spiral I created in my backyard. It seems to be permanent. I happened upon it when I was trying to align my spiral properly to magnetic North and my compass started acting weird at the center. At the time I first noticed this, it was a small area about the size of a quarter, dead center of the spiral that would pull my compass off magnetic North similar to what an electric current would do. Now that I've continued to repeat the dance, it's much larger and the area with the magnetic anomaly doesn't seem to be round: It's about 18" on the West-East axis and about 9" on the North-South axis.
I've actually had a friend and work colleague from the National Research Council of Canada come to try and figure out what's going on and he confirmed that there was definitely something with a strange magnetic signature in the center using the Phyfox app on his phone. He encouraged me to also get and take readings with the magnetometer. Unfortunately, understanding this kind of physics is NOT in my wheelhouse (Bio degree, dance teacher) so even though i've collected some energy signatures using this app, I'm not really able to interpret any of it very well and my friend is a very busy researcher so I haven't wanted to take up more of his time making him interpret my experiments.
This magnetic field doesn't go away either- it seems to be getting bigger and bigger. In fact, I left my experiment for 4 weeks and went to visit my parents where I began constructing another spiral because they have property near flowing water (this spiral seemed to be ineffective btw, and my intuition tells me that I didn't have it aligned properly with the flow of the water) and when i came back, the anomaly was still there even though I hadn't performed the dance for over a month!
I would love some help figuring out what the heck is going on because my best guesses so far are:
1. I somehow chose the center of my spiral to be located above an unknown buried metal object that is becoming more and more magnetized as I spiral
or
2. I'm creating some kind of current or standing wave with my continued spiralling
Anyway, SOMETHING is happening with this spiral dance technology and I would love to find out what is going on at the center of my spiral that is making my compass totally useless without having to dig up my backyard;)
Very intriguing....
-and if anyone out there knows how to decode info from a magnetometer- I have results I can share with you and I would love your help!

If this is the first time you are joining the Map Reading series, you should start from the first post. This time we are touching a slightly more complicated and technical subject: true north vs gr…

True north is generated by the earths rotational axis – as the planet rotates, it does so on an axis that can be imagined as running from the center of the North Pole, through the earth’s core to the center of the South Pole. The true north is actually the northern most point on Earth.
This will be slightly confusing, even more than the true north definition. The magnetic fields that generate the “pull” for the compass’ magnet is generated by solar winds and the earth’s rotation. The solar winds create a magnetic field in the northern cap of the planet, but magnetic north is not at the north pole. The magnetic force is slightly “off” relative to the geographical north and actually moves regularly. At the moment, magnetic north is around Ellesmere Island in Northern Canada.
For me this declination thing is difficult to grasp as it is gradually different from place to place and gradually changing. I am curious what exactly determines magnetic declination. I am blessed to live in London, where when you look at compass Celestial and Magnetic North is almost identical. Not everywhere that is the case. In most places it will be shifted either Easterly or Westerly. Again what determines this is a mystery to me.
So Celestial North is a constant value when Magnetic North is relative to the area one lives in.

Compass may still be quite useful in determining what happens within anomaly. I am wandering what it does exactly? Does it shift in certain direction, spins, moves chaoticly, etc...

I’ve been aligning it to magnetic North since the beginning of this experiment. It was the fact that I was using a crappy compass that led me to discover the magnetism in the center when I bought myself a proper compass actually:)
Here’s a photo of the spiral in my backyard covered in snow. It’s 18’ in diameter. I chose the center out of pure convenience since you can see my backyard is small. The fact that there just happens to now be something that causes a magnetic disturbance at the very center feels very synchronistic and important to check into. I’m really not wanting to start digging up my backyard to check so I’m thinking maybe a metal detector??? Not sure how to proceed exactly…
I have a short video of me with my husband (a scientist who is equally perplexed) when we first noticed the magnetic anomaly was actually getting larger but I’m not sure how I can post it. Here are a few screen shots instead of how the compass is affected. In the photo with my finger in it I’ve got the compass aligned north even though the needle is not. The faint white line that’s hard to see in the grass is the pathway I’m following when I do this spiral dance (which I’ve lovingly nicknamed named The Chariot)
Area at the bottom of the compass painted in red is called orienting arrow or "doghouse". When red needle is in doghouse that is when compass shows to magnetic North. (See attached). When I put compass next to metal object, needle will either move to or away from that object depending of polarity.
If you put two compasses next to each other they should show the same direction. If not, than one of them or even both are faulty. I didn't realize that my first compass had inverted magnetic arrow till I bought another compass and put them next to each other.
Please don't get me wrong. I am not trying to be smart or annoying here. I believe it is better to rule out any possible fault of compass as I had a lot of confusion with them before.
Interestingly, not only has the magnetic center remained there now year after year, it’s gotten bigger. I live in a cold Northern climate, and I refuse to dance around on snow and ice during the winter but even still, I find it there every spring.
I began using an app on my phone (Phyfox) with a magnetometer and I’ve been collecting data on the magnetic signature before and after my dance, then comparing those same two data points to a spot outside of the spiral that's still in my backyard.
Unfortunately, I have no idea what the x,y,z readouts from my magnetometer even mean -lol! It’s clear the values change when I take the readings before I do my spiral dance and after, but I’m really not sure why or how.
I'm still following the original instructions in the July 16th, 2009 transcripts where the
C's mention to begin the spiral dance on a new moon and repeat on mondays to keep it charged, so maybe that's working to keep it there over the winter? Not sure.
At this point I have MANY more questions than answers and will follow-up this post with some questions for the C's like, is the conduit they referred to a magnetic conduit created by using spiral movements to tap into the magnetic field of the planet?
What do I do now to properly scale this up and add more people? Are there dangers to be aware of when doing this? so many more...
So here's a sample of the data I’ve collected on this latest new moon solar eclipse (thought that might be an interesting time to try it out but it had to happen in the morning instead of the usual evening time).
What you're seeing below is the difference between values from my magnetometer app (x,y,z,absolute) taken at the center of my spiral before I do the dance and after. The second chart has the same measurements taken at a point outside of the spiral before and after that I use as a control. I've collected similar data on most of my other new moon/monday dances this season (May 19th-Oct 14th) that I can provide, including the actual data points just in case its needed, and the dimensions of the spiral too, but just to start:
Something is going on but like I said, I'm really not sure what and have no idea how to interpret the differences I'm seeing on my magnetometer app or if they are even relevant at all, so thoughts and expertise are VERY WELCOME!
Could (links to) the videos that were mentioned in the session of 16 July 2009 please be posted here by one of the people that has actually watched them during that session (just to be sure they are the right videos? So that would be @Laura or @ark or maybe G**, Scottie, C**, P L, Don D, Allen, A**, Joe (I don't know if the latter ones were physically present or online.
