I have been drawn to things of an esoteric nature from a very young age, from as far back as I can remember. The stars in the night sky have always fascinated me, along with such things as ghosts, aliens and UFOs. I have never been attracted to mainstream religion. At the same time, I don’t really fit into any specific category of occult philosophy. I was raised in a conventional family and can recall feeling quite hostile each Sunday because my sister and I were sent to Sunday School and yet our parents did not attend church. Something did not seem right.
During my late teens, I became drawn to books of an unorthodox nature. I devoured 'The Third Eye' by Lobsang Rampa and Erich von Däniken’s 'Chariots of the Gods'. I attended a séance where a man went into a trance and spoke in an altered voice. With a group of friends, I played around with the Ouija board and was amazed at the powerful force that could send a wineglass shooting around the board at incredible speed. Friends later told me that whenever I was absent, the force was weak. Although I was captivated, at the same time I was a little uneasy about dabbling in such things.

Around 1996, while gazing at the stars one night, I was suddenly overwhelmed by an intense awareness that there was so much more to life than our mundane existence and that everything was connected to the universe. As I stood there, insignificant beneath the vast and majestic grandeur of the celestial canopy, I seemed to be poised at the edge of infinity with the cosmos as my temple.
During the early 1990s, I began to experience something that at the time seemed rather odd, and also a little freaky. I would suddenly glance up and see the numbers 11:11 on a clock. These sightings were utterly random and would happen all over the place, anywhere there was a digital clock. I would see them in the car, on the oven, the microwave, the computer, and sometimes on such items as dockets or cash register receipts. There was something very compelling about these numbers and I would find myself staring at them, completely transfixed. The sightings became so frequent that deep inside I knew there was a deeper meaning attached. However, it was not until some years later that I learned of the Harmonic Convergence and the writings of Solara.

For many years the numbers 11:11 have been mysteriously appearing to people all over the world. Often appearing on digital clocks, the sightings of 11:11 tend to occur during times of heightened awareness, having a most powerful effect on the people involved. This causes a reactivation of our cellular memory banks. There's a stirring deep inside, a hint of remembrance of something long forgotten. The appearance of 11:11 is also a powerful confirmation that we are on the  right track, aligned with our highest Truth. 11:11 is a pre-encoded trigger placed into our cellular memory banks prior to our descent into matter which, when activated, signifies that our time of completion is near. This refers to the completion of duality. When the 11:11 appears to you, it is your wake-up call.

― Solara, '11:11 - Inside The Doorway', Star-Borne Unlimited, 1992

I still see 11:11 frequently. More often than not, it is at a very appropriate moment.

In 1996, I was encouraged by a friend to visit a well known Psychic and Astrologer. Although I was a little hesitant, I made an appointment. I was absolutely astounded by the accuracy of the reading. Shortly afterwards, I began studying Astrology. I am sun sign CANCER, moon sign SCORPIO, with an AQUARIUS ascendant. My life path number is 9.

Life threw many challenges my way. In 1997, an extremely traumatic event (my 'Tower' card in the Tarot) was a major catalyst for healing and spiritual growth. As time went by, I was able to let go of my attachment to the darkness of the past and see this event for what it truly was. Divine Intervention ― the ultimate gift of release from within the confines of an unhealthy, oppressive and abusive relationship.
The following year, I was guided to the teachings of Kryon, channelled by Lee Carroll. From the moment I opened the first Kryon book, I could literally feel the love pouring out through the pages. I experienced a deep soul connection, a powerful sense of coming home. Kryon also speaks of the significance of 11:11. I subsequently attended Kryon seminars in Sydney and Canberra and, on a visit to America in 2008, in San Antonio in Texas.

On the
Kryon website, I experienced two synchronistic connections to like-minded souls who have had a large influence on my journey. The major one is my soul mate, who is now my husband.

My Tarot studies commenced in 1998 and it quickly became my major focus. It is what I most enjoy doing. I have in recent times completed a diploma course with Tarot Professionals, a wonderful Tarot organisation in the UK, and am currently expanding my knowledge through their degree-style Hekademia course.

I am sometimes asked whether I am psychic. We are all psychic. Nobody is more or less psychic than anybody else. Each one of us has the ability, although we do not necessarily use it. Some draw on their psychic abilities frequently, while others are more gradually opening to the knowledge that there is more to life than our physical reality. Then there are those who scoff at the mere suggestion of such 'foolishness'! Psychic impressions are not something you can call up on demand, but rather those sudden insights, that uneasy feeling in the pit of your stomach. And it is in this that we should place our trust. I have experienced many moments of psychic awareness and have learned to trust my intuition. On the occasions when I have ignored those flashes of insight, it has always been to my detriment.

I have witnessed a UFO in the skies over Canberra, had a number of out-of-body experiences, and experienced other 'unexplainable' events.

I am Australian born and bred. I grew up on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria. In the early years of my first marriage, I spent a year in Woomera, followed by many years in Canberra. In 2005, I moved to Cairns, where I now live with my second husband. I have a son in Cairns and a daughter in New York.

I have spent many years researching my family history. During my research, I made the amazing discovery that my father’s branch of the family had been traced back through Swedish nobility to the 15th century. My 12th and 13th great-grandfathers were Kings of Sweden. This was absolutely unexpected and, of course, extremely exciting. However, I am not entitled to inherit a castle or the crown jewels! And just to get me down off my  pedestal on that one ... I also have a convict in the family.

My other main interests are writing and piano. I have achieved minor success in short story competitions. I am in the process of writing my family history and my life story.
