The past several months have sped by rapidly. It feels like the Wheel of Time has slipped off its moorings and is now spinning wildly out of control throughout the dimensional universe.
At the beginning of July, quarantine was finally lifted in Peru after three and a half long months ~ except for those under 14 or over 65. This doesn’t mean that everything is functioning normally; it’s not. Only some things are allowed to reopen under numerous restrictions. Our borders and schools are still closed and there is very little public transportation. The well established tourist industry in Peru has completely null zoned. There are many people here who have lost everything. And many who are struggling to eat.
There are several groups, both spontaneous grass roots ones and already established NGOs, who have stepped forward to bring food and blankets to those in need. In our small village, neighbors, both Peruvians and ExPats, have joined together to make sure that no one is going hungry. We are supporting all of these groups as much as we can. If you want to help, you can find links to some of these groups on The Heart of AN FB page.
During the quarantine, we hoped that we would be able to catch up with our work and that maybe I would have time to focus on my new book or create art. I’ve been able to occasionally write on my book and have really enjoyed working on it. But since there has been such an air of heaviness and distortion in the collective, that proved impossible. Instead, we have been doing much work to transmute the energies around the planet ~ which makes us incredibly tired at times. We have also been keeping up with needed maintenance on the land and planted our first potato patch.
Like many others, we have instantly lost most of the sources of our income ~ as all visitors and groups coming this year have cancelled. The Peruvian Post Office has been closed for four months, and has still not reopened, so we have been unable to send out any orders from our AN•Mercado. Up until last week, we were not even allowed to go to Cuzco. Yet in spite of everything, we feel extremely blessed to be here.
We are in the midst of a very warm, dry winter season here in the Southern Hemisphere. Now we yearn for rain to moisten and nourish the earth ~ that everyone’s crops may grow and flourish.
Strange and challenging times, indeed.
With True Love from the Heart of AN!

Guess who now LOVES their new ramada!

In the middle of May, Ilum returned and trimmed some of our very tall trees. Now our house receives more light and our view of the Apu has returned!

The pozo or water tank by our vegetable garden.

It’s winter here in the Southern Hemisphere. Right now, it’s very warm and sunny, but in late May, it got close to freezing at night, so we had to cover up our vegetable garden at night.
-
-
We created a potato patch near the Tower of AN. It also has a few new berry bushes planted at the far side.
-
-
The first potatoes should be ready in August!
-
-
Our new irrigation canal is a huge help in guiding water through our land.

In May, Pedro was finally able to visit his family in Yanamayo, after an absence of two months due to Peru”s strict lockdown. He went home for five days for a long overdue time there. That”s his house, surrounded by alpacas and cloud forest. Such a Timeless True World.

On Fridays, families from the remote Andean community of Cancha Cancha bring their amazing potatoes to Friday’s local market in our village.
-
-
Before we were allowed to drive our cars, every Friday, Emanaku would walk one kilometer to the weekly market in our village and come home laden with a heavy load.
-
-
After every market day, I feed the alpacas broccoli leaves which they love, especially Nima!
-
-
We finally resorted to putting a cone on poor Manzana after she wouldn’t stop chewing on her leg. Of course, she really didn’t like it and looked so sad. By the evening, she had managed to break it, so that was the end of the cone. Fortunately, after giving her much love and healing, her leg is getting better.

It’s been super dry here this year during our dry season. Our last rain was on June 6. We are really hoping for some rain soon.
-
-
Some very sweet mushrooms that look like fairy houses popped up in front of our house.
-
-
During our three and a half month quarantine, there was always a feeling of immense intensity and anguish in the planetary collective. It often felt like we were traveling through a huge distortion band.

The Full Moon Eclipse on June 5 ~ my birthday! It looks like a Full Moon within a Crescent Moon.

Leo and Luna are our role models for sleeping all day. Then is when we wish that we were cats.
-
-
This view from our Art Studio is always inspiring.
-
-
After a few months at home, we started taking artistic photos of what was around us. View looking upwards of our capiz shell lamp over the dining table.
-
-
I love how everyday objects can reveal hidden worlds within them. Here’s another photo of the capiz shell light above our dining table.

On June 28, there was a live online concert of the brilliant Mongolian band ~ the HU. Luna and Manzana seemed to be HU fans and listened intently. This is the closest they have ever sat next to each other!!
-
-
Manzana and Emanaku loving each other during the HU concert.

On June 8, we had a new truck load of firewood delivered.
-
-
It always feels good to have our wood bins filled to the top!
-
-
Even though we couldn’t drive our car for over three months, La Perla’s radiator developed a leak. Fortunately, near the end of the quarantine, we found a mechanic who could come and repair it right on the land.
-
-
At the beginning of July, our friend Ilum returned to repair one of our wood benches that had completely collapsed.
-
-
These trees, which unfortunately I can’t remember their name, are full of very pretty, pale orange seed pods.
-

A week and a half ago, I made my first trip off the land since the middle of March to the weekly market in our village. The market has a wonderful selection of super fresh, organic produce.
It was good to see some of our neighbors, as well as some dear friends from Chinchero who were selling potatoes, instead of their usual weavings. It was my first time wearing a mask and I found it very difficult to breathe with one in this very high altitude of over 10,000 feet / 3,000 meters.
-
-
The world around us has been drastically altered. The usually thriving Urubamba Market has been closed every other day for disinfection.
-
-
My second outing since March! On July 4th we went to Kampu in Urubamba to have some delicious Moroccan tajine with chicha morada. We had the entire restaurant to ourselves.
It”s strange going out into the world. Everything feels so dream like and surreal. It kind of appears the same as before, but it”s not at all the same. Everything and everyone has been indelibly altered.
-
-
Even though it is a super dry season this year, the grass is being well watered from the irrigation canal.
-
-
The Alpacas of AN ~ Nima, No’e and Rit’i ~ stare at us from the far side of the Octagon. They knew that I was bringing them some broccoli leaves.
-
-
For some reason, the sunsets are extra beautiful this year.
-
-
Here’s our awesome Apu with a fresh dusting of snow from our last rain on June 14. Since then, it’s been warm and sunny during the day and chilly once the Sun sets.
-
-
Emanaku has been making incredible photos of the Milky Way above us.

This is the Heart of AN on July 5, 2020. It’s been a challenging year, but the energies of the New Reality of AN are still streaming in.

The Full Moon Eclipse on July 5!
Greetings from Prague from the Czech Republic,
our beloved family from Peru.
I send many Love and Blessings to Peru and Heart of An.
From the heart of Mystical Prague, Wisdom and Light are spreading for the whole Planet and Humanity. I share with you the Vibration of the consciousness of the new age of humanity, creatively manifested in images.
https://www.doreanmaster.com/new-mystic-prague/ With love, Ján and Monika
Belated best wishes you, dear Solara!
And thank you for these insights!
I am going through a complicated process of awakening and really asking myself what it is to be a Light worker in this world. I no longer, and have not for some time, been able to live in ordinary society. I don’t even know how to begin as I am currently awaiting disability for several issues mainly related to trauma. Any insight is much appreciated as to how to live again once you have died a thousand deaths.
