The Mouth of Miriam’s well/ the crystal omer/seed

We are now counting daily the omer seed grain to number and remember the journey from liberation from Mitzrayim at the Passover, to illumination at Shavuot on the Har/Mount Sinai. There we receive the holy tablets. Involved in all this are the ten things spoken of in the last post, from the ancient Hebrew legends/aggadah. Everyone knows the story of the shattered first stone tablets but it is only through the oral torah and teachings that we may understand why Miriam had the stone that was the well of water and wisdom for the people in their journey to illumination and people hood. The written torah tells us that when Miriam died, the mouth of the well closed up and the people were thirsty in the desert. This means that a great wisdom apparently died with her(or went underground!), a wisdom involving how to carry and treat the sacred stone given to the people. This is where the famous striking of the rock with the scepter of Moshe/Moses, another of the ten things created in the twilight of the first Sabbath, comes on the scene. For those who know the mysteries, this scepter is itself made of a sacred rock, called a sapphire, a play on the word sepher which also means book in Hebrew. In the ark of the covenant held in the mishkan, the tabernacle, we are told three items were contained therein. The tablets from Sinai, the scepter of Aaron, and the flask of manna. All of these were listed in the list of the TEN things created in the twilight. And all are related to the crystal seed called the shamir, the smallest of all the listed items. The shamir was needed to build the beith HaMikdash, the Temple of Solomon. The word shamir has the same root as the word for shomer,- keeping or guarding something sacred as the Sabbath. Yes indeed here we have the holy of holies of the initiatory lineage involving the kedoshim, the sacred vessels from the Temple. This is the greatly guarded and kept secret of the received kabbalah. The word shamir also contains the word Shem, the Name, a sacred name of the Divine Mystery. So where is Miriam involved in all this? She who was and is the keeper of the neshamah of the Earth, the Shekinah herself, knew something about how in community the special crystal seeds need to be carried and kept so that the mouth of the well of wisdom would flow for the people. The count of the fortynine of the Omer from liberation to enlightenment and the gates of understanding opening within person to person, gives us a hint at what we might do with the crystal gates in order to make a little more visible the third holy house. This is the long awaited third Temple which actually encompasses the entire Earth now in this special forty year period of time. The calendar and holy days are giving us some interesting synchronicity in this special work of making a world at peace. All the five Christian calendars have coincided this year in their simultaneous celebration of the Easter holiday. This is actually happening at the sixth day of the Pesach festival. A hint at how important the Christian prayer form has been in this past fifth and sixth millenium. read the past post on how this prayer form has ensured the bringing in of the Angel guardian of Rome into the hebrew lineage tradition. This is now contained in a sense in a microcosmic form, encompassed within the eight day festival of the Pesach. A hint at the global resurrection that the haftorah of Ezekiel, which was chanted on the Sabbath, gives us a view of happenning in our times, right now. The opening of the mouth of the well of Miriam, the return of the sacred crystal shamir/seed is enveloping a global reawakening to a world view that contains the being realm as a primary player in the universe. We keep praying for peace - all around the world.
