LIGHT PORTAL & MIDDLE EARTH GATEWAY OF LASTOURS, SACRED CATHAR SITE, BLACK MOUNTAINS LANGUEDOC

Updated: Mar 19, 2021



This image above is of Lastours and it is super powerful and sacred. It wants to be shared with the world. It is one image that I just managed to capture on a plane before going into the cloud, and that same image has been edited in different ways in this text.


Lastours is ready to be known by Lightworkers. She calls. This is a powerful Cathar and Mary site, of water and of crystals, and of the ancient ones, and she is now open again. I invite you all to connect to this portal, to journey there in your meditations. I invite you to go there and do your light work, and prayers, to see her re-open, to bring in the light age, and also to transmute the recent attacks on this most sacred rock. She survives, and she rises again. She now opens her doors again and in sending her healing, she will send you the purest healings and blessings of the Light.


I have just returned from another trip to Languedoc France where I was staying over the snow moon weekend in LasTours the home of 4 Cathar castles on a sheer rock, north of Carcassonne. Lastours has been calling me for sometime now and I have have been a few times, but never climbed up to the top. This trip was all about doing just that. As soon as I committed to doing this then a Lemurian type guide came in who was an ancient MER wizard rather like Merlin, with a staff, in white, as well as a great water energy of MERmaids, the Marys.

There are several legends about LasTours, and her mythical tunnels and caves, and the Kings and Princesses, some of which are sung about by the troubadours. They include fairies guarding treasure of lapis, silver and pearl in a cave below Lastours. Some of the tunnels are said to link to Carcassonne and the nearby huge crystal caves of Limousis. One legend includes the beautiful she-wolf Blanche or Loba, who is sometimes called Saurimonde, who was a creature with a goat’s body and a woman’s head or otherwise a woman associated with goats, who lived in a cave below the castles of Lastours, and she carried a golden comb. When she cried, it rained; when she played the flute she announced the coming of spring. She is believed by some to be evil and by others to be good. For me, she is a beautiful Water Priestess (associated with goats), and the dark times of the inquisitions twisted beautiful stories to become fearful superstitions. The legends of Saurimonde are incredibly similar to those of the Goddess Mari of the nearby region of the Basque. Both lived in caves, were beautiful, naked and had long red hair or dressed in reds. Both were priestesses of waters. Just like Magdalena who wore red or had long red hair or was depicted naked, in caves in France. Lastours is said to have a tunnel connected to Carcassonne and to the other caves nearby, all dating back to prehistoric times. These include the discovery in the 1960s of the burial of the so called Princess of Lastours which dates to 1500 bc, covered with objects among of which were amber pearls and jewels which were said to be Mycenian or Egyptian. So archeology also proves that this place as been inhabited for thousands of years and has a history way more ancient than that of the Cathar, wh perhaps dwelt there because it was very spiritual place.


Lastours is just near the caves of Limousis, which dates back to neolithic man and is made up of 8 chambers, the last chamber houses an exceptional mass of aragonite crystals, known as the Chandelier, 4 metres in height and 10 metres round. It is said to be connected by a tunnel to the nearby temple caves of Gouffre Geant de Cabrespine. Lastours itself just nearby is a rock in the black mountains said to contain 40 caves and connecting tunnels. Whenever I go to France I meet my friend and love, who is a local and know the whole area well. He remembers many more tunnels and caves and running between them as a child, which have since been closed or covered over. Lastours castles was one of the main centres for Cathar activity and a thriving village and community of peace up until the 13th century when they were destroyed during the inquisition, details of which you can read about online elsewhere.

The mining for gold commenced in the area many hundreds of years ago and the mine, called Salsigne was one of the biggest gold mine in Europe. Two millennia of mining history here of both gold and arsenic. Workers were deep in arsenic dust, wives washing their clothing, children playing in huge piles of it. Other poisons were brought in to purify the gold, unsafe concentrations of lead, arsenic, cadmium and mercury still exist in Salsigne, and piles were dumped carelessly in mounds without care. Many workers died in their forties and the mines were forced to close causing financial ruin as well as death. Recent flooding only last year took the arsenic into the rivers. The rivers are now poisoned, unfit to swim in, and a high percentage of the children in the local school have high levels of arsenic in their system.


Did the ancients know about the gold? Why did they choose this place to build for LasTours? How does gold connect to these light portal? It seems interesting that the 2 Light Portals that have come to me in 2020 are both connected to gold - Mount Ural, and here at Las Tours. It is also interesting how the legend of Saurimonde's comb links to stories about gold in the area. Gold has spiritual properties and is an energy conductor helping people to assimilate star energies.

So we have 2 devastating events to clear here from recent history (recent being just the last 800 years) : the inquisition and brutal atrocities of the catholic invasion and genocide of the peaceful Cathars, as well as the more recent environmental hazard and removal of the gold. Now gold is going up in price, talks have commenced to reopen the mines in these sacred lands. There is also of course atrocities from both the French revolution and second world war that happened in this area too. Yet before this, this rock was a great great place of spiritual power.

When I arrived late at night in Lastours & went to bed, I immediately had a vision of my guide and he was standing before the most incredible white pillared temple. It was a most pure, beautiful and sacred vision.

Climbing the castles and spending the day there led to many more insights, and clearing meditations. I saw how this thriving Cathar civilisation was just the very end of a much longer and far more ancient one spanning thousands of years that extended underground into Middle Earth through the many tunnels and caves of the area. I saw inner chambers. Entrances to Agartha and the underground civilisations, as well as ethereal temples above the mountain, as above, so below.


I have also experienced this in the Provence area of the Magdalena caves where I have 'seen' caves and tunnels leading out from the main central cave of St Baume. Bugarach Muntain is also similar. There seem to be many places through these regions of France from Northern Italy, through Provence and the Languedoc into the Pyrenees and down to Montserrat, that are littered with underground caverns and tunnels and chambers.


And I can clearly feel and see how this place of LasTours is a power Light portal and entrance way to the inner Earth, the infra terrestrial, and the outer earth or the extra terrestrial, there is a veil to cross between the worlds here. The whole area within is brimming with a white light. No wonder this was chosen as the main centre for the Cathars once upon a time. Montsegur is famous as it was the last one to fall to the brutal inquisition, but it was LasTours that was in fact one of the main centres.

There is a crystal gem within the heart of this rock, and tunnels and chambers leading deep down. This was once an ancient civilisation that is not recorded by your historians. They came to destroy but the truth can never be destroyed and it lives on in the hearts of the souls of those who remember. Those who see. This civilisation did indeed span for many thousands of years. It was peaceful and connected underground peoples with those above. These beings still exist there. There are some who are partly physical but mainly they exist in the ethereal realms.”

When I write this I feel very emotional, an ancient sadness descends and I cry. It is both sadness for what the inquisition did and for what they are now continuing to do to cover up the caves and truths; as well as sadness of longing for and now finding home, for the purest love is here.


I see beings now in white. They are tall, a few with long heads and very long long hair. They are depicted as fae people at times. They say they are connected to the Mers and this is indeed why MM came to this area and why the Cathars thrived here, for the tribe of MM and the Mers worked with them and were of them, the same tribe. Yes there are links to the Egyptians, of course. I am told, it is same tribe. Same energy. They had the same ways. And that we are born again, and yes we know one another just as was stated in the Cathar Prophecy (see below). They show me there is an inner chamber with a pure white fountain running with the purest white water. You may go there and imagine that you drink from it. It will purify your energy field and aura. You will feel it. You may feel a white star in your forehead as you do. This place is most sacred and most divine. There is also much magic here so the light will shine upon that which you need to release. There is a great great peace here. People who enter the mountain face the truth of who they are in their soul. And that is why the inquisition were unable to enter within. The Princess of Lastours that they found was said to be an 8 year old girl, but the white being that I meet who is a Priestess of these realms, like a fairy princess, and she is tall, so tall, and she is white with long long hair. You may go to meet her and receive your blessing.


This reminds me of a story I once read by Earlyne Chaney in her book Beyond Tomorrow, where she mentions getting lost in Loltun cave in Yucatan when a light came towards them that was a torch being carried by a blind hermit who clairvoyantly knew they were lost. Despite being blind he guided them back. He told them he lived in the cave and came to the surface every now and again. He said he was cared for by the Middle Earth people. He stayed long enough to have a photograph taken the disappeared back into the cave.


I can see monks coming in and out of the mountain caves, and I can see how a few of the Cathar priests were between worlds of the inner chambers of the middle earth, the ethereal temples, and the surface 3d worlds.


Whilst I was there I also saw a hooded man and at first I was a little afraid as he looked just like the grim reaper without a sickle. Then I realised he also looked exactly like the hidden Jedi monks in cloaks from the inner mountain caves. I could not see his face, but he was definitely male. There was an aura of deep mystery around him so hidden and mysterious. This was of course a Cathar monk, and there are many deep in the hills and the Jedi monks perhaps allude to them. Like the Nazarenes they wore cloaks with hoods, just as we do as priestesses today. I wondered perhaps the fear based myth of the grim reaper that appeared in the 14th century may have been yet more twisted misinformation to make people afraid of these holy men and the holy ways of the true Nazarenes, just like Magdalena, the 13 or Pan the horned God or the Goddess Mari / Sarimaunde etc

The next day I was worried about flying home in Storm Chiara and Kim Ora a Rose Sister sent me a message to find a Mary Isis site (or church which are usually built on sacred sites). We looked at he map and knew it was Aragon. So on the way to the airport we took a detour to this tiny unknown village that was a Cathar settlement, and holds much water and Goddess energy. The church was closed but we found the lady with the key. As Luca unlocked the door with the huge ancient key, I recalled how MM once said that he was a key for me. There was much Goddess energy here, and of course I noticed the link of the name Aragon, not just with the Aragon kingdom and family, but with the Aragonite crystal of the nearby caves (also found in the kingdom of Aragon). The energy here was very MER indeed.

I then flew home on a cheap flight and was fortunate to be randomly selected a window seat. As my flight took off from Carcassone I looked down to see that we were flying directly over the very castles themselves! I reached for my phone which happened to be on, and on camera mode, and I caught it just once before we entered thick cloud.


The image is super powerful and sacred. It wants to be shared with the world.

I invite you all to connect to this portal, to journey there in you meditations. She survives, and she rises again. She now opens her doors again. She will bless you with her light in return.


I invite you to go there in meditation, and drink from the inner fountain, and receive your message from her. As you do you may do your intuitive light work, perhaps say a blessing prayer, to see her open, to bring in the light age, and also to transmute the recent attacks on this most sacred rock. See her restored and she will bless you in return with so much Light.




Thank you in advance for your light work upon this area, and love light blessings to you all, May the 144000 step into the sovereignty now and bring back the light, Love Ishtara xxxxx

❤️❤️🌹🌹

THE CATHAR PROPHECY OF 1244 CE THE CHURCH OF LOVE It has no fabric – only understanding. It has no membership – save those who know they belong. It has no rivals – because it is non-competitive. It has no ambition, because it only seeks to serve. It knows of no boundaries for nationalisms are unloving. It is not of itself because it seeks to enrich all groups and religions. It acknowledges all great teachers of all the ages who have shown the truth of Love. Those who participate, practise the Truth of Love in all their daily being. There is no walk of life or nationality that is a barrier. Those who are, know. It seeks not to teach but to be, and by being, enrich. It recognises the collectivity of all humanity and that we are all one with the One. It recognises that the way we are may be the way of those around us because we are that way. It recognises the whole planet as a Being, of which we are a part. It recognises that the time has come for the supreme transmutation, the ultimate alchemical act, the conscious change of the ego into a voluntary return to the whole. It does not proclaim itself with a loud voice but in the subtle realms of loving. It salutes all those in the past who have blazoned the path but paid the price. It admits of no hierarchy or structure, for no one is greater than another. Its members shall know each other by their deeds and being and their eyes and by no other outward sign, save the fraternal embrace. Each one will dedicate his or her life to the silent loving of their neighbour and environment and the planet, whilst carrying out their daily task, however exalted or humble. It recognises the supremacy of the great idea which may only be accomplished if the human race practices the supremacy of Love. It has no rewards to offer, either here or in the hereafter, save that of the ineffable joy of being and loving. Its members shall seek only to advance the cause of understanding, within whichever church, group or family they happen to be. They shall do good by stealth and teach only by example. They shall heal their neighbour, their community and our Planet. They shall know no fear, and feel no shame and their witness shall prevail over all odds. It has no secrets, no arcanum, no initiations save that of the true understanding of the power of love and that, if we want it to be so, the world will change but only if we change ourselves first. ALL THOSE WHO BELONG, BELONG, THAT IS THE CHURCH OF LOVE. 🌹🌹❤️❤️ BACKGROUND TO THE PROPHECY Much has been written and speculated about the Cathars who settled in the Languedoc region in France during the eleventh century; there is no clear evidence where they came from but clues in their belief and practice point to extremely early Christian origins, and in all likelihood they spread from the Byzantine Empire to Bulgaria, and on to the Balkans and Northern Italy. Although they called themselves Christians, the Catholic Church called them Albigenses, or Cathars. In the Fortress of Montségur, the Cathars maintained a church hierarchy yet rejected any idea of priesthood or the use of church buildings. They believed in reincarnation and refused to eat meat or other animal products; they regarded men and women as equals and had no doctrinal objection to contraception, euthanasia or suicide. It follows that the Catholic Church condemned them as heretics. Following that logic, the infamous Inquisition proceeded to massacre them in their usual zealousness, wiping out every single one of them; the Cathar’s last stronghold was the fortress of Montségur which was entirely pulled down by the victorious royal forces after its capture in 1244." In 1978 on a visit to Montsegur in the Cathar country of SW France, Colin Bloy had dowsed in a meadow where 300 Perfecti were burned alive in 1244. The dowsing revealed a Latin text which referred to the rebuilding of a church in Andorra in 1986. In March 1985 Colin was prompted to write the proclamation of the Church of Love - he says the words were not his - and this Church was proclaimed in Andorra on Good Friday, 28th March 1986. Colin says: “This was written by my hand, but I would not claim authorship, it was taken down in ten minutes - just like that.."

MYTHS AND LEGENDS OF LASTOURS

There are several legends about mythical tunnels and caves and Kings and Princesses, some of which are sung about by the troubadours. One includes the beautiful she wolf Blanche or Lupa, who is often confused with Saurimonde, and her golden comb, who is believed by some to be evil and by others to be good. For me, she is a beautiful Water Priestess (associated with goats), and the dark times of the inquisitions twisted beautiful stories to be the work of the devil. The legends of Saurimonde are similar to those of the Goddess Mari of the Basque. Both lived in caves, were beautiful, naked and had long red hair or dressed in reds. Both were priestesses of waters. Just like Magdalena who wore red or had long red hair or was depicted naked, in caves in France. Lastours is said to have a tunnel connected to Carcassonne and to the other caves nearby, all dating back to prehistoric times, including the burial of the so called Princess of Lastours which dates to 1500 bc so this place as been inhabited for so long.
