Chapter 1 - Starmaiden
Our story begins in a lovely country setting where there lived a young woman who was quite beautiful and charming. She had no end of suitors coming into her life, but she always felt compelled to turn them away. Something inside told her that romance was not appropriate for her at this time, and that a special angel would be coming to deliver a very important message.
Late one evening, while peering out her bedroom window, our young woman saw what appeared to be a shooting star fall across the distant sky; its tail was all ablaze, lighting a shimmering path as it crossed the horizon. Immediately, our young woman felt that her angel was at hand.
Early the next day, she rode out on her horse in the direction where she had seen the star fall. There, up ahead, in a meadow, she saw a strange sight. It was not the trail of damage one might have expected to find from a meteorite coming to Earth, but a gleaming ship of a type she had never seen before. This space vehicle was adorned with all manner of lights, blinking and glowing, as if to say it was alive. "It was a sailing ship," she thought, "but one designed to travel to and from the stars, I suppose."
Our young woman was completely captivated with its appearance. Feeling no fear, she walked around the craft a few times, examining it from every possible angle. There appeared to be no opening with which to access the interior, yet somehow she sensed there was someone aboard.
She knocked on the hull a few times to see what would happen. All of a sudden a hatch, which previously she had not noticed, opened up. Out stepped a tall, majestic looking man, dressed in white and emitting a faint glow all about him. At first glance, he did appear to be human, yet he exhibited some unusual characteristics. He did not appear to notice her yet he seemed to be looking right through her. He stood there for a few moments, looking about the meadow, apparently drinking in every detail of the surrounding scenery. Turning his attention to her now, he seemed to absorb every characteristic of this lovely creature as she stood before him.
Without uttering a word, he asked her who she was. And before she could even think about a reply, in her mind, she answered "Genie."
"Then you are the special woman I've been looking for," he went on, again telepathically. "I am?" Genie repeated this time out loud.
"Yes, you are," he stated determinedly, and then proceeded to step away from his ship to get a better view of the landscape stretching out before him.
"Where am I?" he asked as he continued to look about.
"Why you are on Earth," Genie responded, unsure as to what to say really.
"Earth, this I know," he exclaimed. "What is the name of this location here on Earth?" he continued.
"Oh, I see," Genie replied. "What is this particular area called, is what you want to know."
"That is correct," he acknowledged.
"Well," she went on, "this is my home area here on planet Earth. It is called Lapis Land, home of the Mighty and Sweet."
"Indeed," he muttered. "Tell me then, why are you here with me now?"
"Well," Genie hesitated, "I saw a falling star last night and traced its descent to this area. This morning I decided to ride out here and see if I could find any evidence of its landing."
"I understand that," he reflected, "but, what in fact brought you to this location?"
"Oh, I see. You want to know if I felt some other form of attraction to this location, and was perhaps drawn here for reasons other than just pursuing a falling star."
"Go on." he stated.
"In all honesty, I really don't know." Genie paused. "I used to think that I would only follow my instincts if they made sense. But somehow, there seemed to be more going on this time. I just felt a need to be here and to touch this ship of yours. There was really no doubt or hesitation on my part. I just felt I had to be here."
"Good then! We understand each other," he stated flatly.
"We do?" Genie repeated, somewhat incredulously.
He looked at her and then turned away; still captivated it seemed by the glorious landscape that spread out before him.
"This is a beautiful country," he said as he continued drinking in every scene, attuning himself to the accompanying sounds. "Breathtaking," he added. "Very magical!"
Genie just watched and listened as her companion carried on admiring everything he saw and heard.
"Tell me, dear woman," he began again, "have you ever traveled to the stars?"
"Why yes, or no," she replied hesitantly. "By yes I mean in my imagination. By no, I mean not literally."
"What is literally?" he asked.
"Oh, I mean physically," she explained, "like on a ship such as yours."
She was feeling rather anxious now. This man continued to probe her for answers to very private thoughts that she had never shared with anyone.
"I am trying to learn about you," he continued, obviously reading her thoughts again, "and I am wondering what kind of magic you might weave?"
"Magic?" she repeated.
"Yes, magic," he went on. "In my home area, women are weavers of magic, capable of spinning many fantastic ideas and yarns. Not the kind you make clothes from mind you, but the kind you tell stories with."
"Oh, yarns, yes," Genie now understood. "Yes I do weave yarns sometimes to amuse myself, or to entertain children and teach a lesson or two."
"Good," he said, "then you will be very useful on our journey together."
"I will?" she repeated.
"Of course! Of what value would you be if you could not weave tales? Your world has need of stories to help its occupants find their way. They are lost and asleep, so many of them, and conventional methods of instruction have failed to serve them in their quest for truth. They have need of yarns, beautiful magical tales that can transport them out of themselves into a world of fantasy and magic, where they can perceive themselves from a different point of view."
Now Genie was aghast.
"You expect me to do all this?" she asked, feeling rather bewildered.
"Yes, I do," he replied. "For I am Stargazer and you are Starmaiden, and we have come together at this time to prepare you for instructing this race of people."
"But, these are my people," she protested. "I am one of them. Why are you saying these things to me?"
She was quite anxious now, wondering where all of this was going.
"A long time ago, when you were quite young," he began again, "I visited you one night. I whispered to you softly and told you who you were and why you were here on this Earth. I explained to you that I would return at a later time and the two of us would set off together on a very important journey. But first, you had to grow up in this environment and learn the customs of these people. Once that was accomplished, you would be ready for the challenges ahead."
"I see," Genie stated as she sat down to absorb all of what she just heard. "When I was younger I do remember being visited by a stranger who told me such things. This is coming back to me now. And he said he would return for me at a future time. That was you?" she asked, looking straight at him with a glint of recognition spreading across her face.
"That was I, dear woman. That was I," he repeated for emphasis.
"But I don't understand," she went on. "How could I forget all that and yet, still hear you in my head and know that what you say is true. I find this very confusing."
"Understandably so," he went on. "When you were young, you were open to magic and mystery. The Universe, the stars, all manner of life intrigued you. As you grew older, this material world pressed itself upon you and you forgot many of the teachings that were given to you at the beginning of this venture. These teachings were embedded into your cellular memory so as to never be lost. But your consciousness did lose sight of them. These will reawaken again, as we proceed on this journey together. Each step of the way, important facets of these earlier instructions will come back to you, and you will know that they are true because of the feelings in your heart."
"In my heart?" she repeated, covering her chest with her hand.
"Yes, in your heart," he repeated, "where all such truths are written. The Great Creator has written these truths in all of our hearts, to be found, and recovered, at key points in our lives."
"But, how is this to happen for me?" she wanted to know. "How will I find my truths?"
"By your own feelings will you know them," he proceeded to explain. "And by the reactions your whole body will show to any situation or event."
"Like I'm having right now, with your words?" she asked.
"That is correct. In this feeling state, you will know all such truths, as they will show an unmistakable marking to you in the form of a vibration. That vibration is a key to your personal knowledge. Each time that key, or vibration, is activated, you will have discovered some new and important information about yourself that will be undeniable. Do you have any further questions before we proceed?" he added.
"No, not at the moment," she answered. "But I do wish to know how I can go off with you and not say something to my family. They will be concerned about me and will want to know the details of who you are."
Stargazer pondered her reaction for a moment, and then offered this reply:
"Let them know that you have awakened to a new reality, that a quest has been thrust upon you, and that you must pursue it. This they will understand, as do all who have parented a very special being. They will release you to your tasks. Do not be concerned about that."
"Very well," Genie answered. "I will go to my home and tell my parents what I must do. Then I will return to you here tomorrow, to begin this journey together."
"Do you understand what this is all about?" Stargazer asked again.
"I only understand that I must go with you. I have been waiting for this for some time it seems. Now that you are here, it is time for me to proceed. This is all I know at the moment."
Genie then rode off in the direction of her home as Stargazer set about to camp for the night. He knew in his heart that he had come to the right place. He knew this for certain as soon as he saw Starmaiden standing before him. She was truly special, much as he had envisioned her to be; not at all like the child he had met so long ago. With that thought in mind he sat down to contemplate. He would go into a meditative state, where he could consult with the members of his army of thieves. They were not real thieves, but mischievous guides as they liked to be referred to, in keeping with their unpredictable ways.
As Stargazer sat down beside the ship, he imagined how life would be 1,000 years from this time, when travelers of all sorts would be wandering about the Universe, sharing, cavorting, and telling each other their yarns. Yes, it would be an amazing place then, this Earth. But again, it was always amazing this mystery called Life.
"Till that unknown future then," and he drifted into a meditative trance, to travel as it were, wherever his mind and guidance might take him. Who knew for sure? Only the journey itself would tell the tale.
