People as Portals and Places - Amnivara - The Temple of Song is Open
[00:00:00]
Jennifer Taylor: Good morning, Tava Baird.
Tava Baird: Oh, good morning, Jennifer Taylor. It feels like forever since we've been on doing this, I know it's been a busy few weeks.
Jennifer Taylor: It has, and I am so excited for today. And welcome to everyone who is joining us today. We are really super excited because we've been postponing a conversation that is apparently going to blow my mind so much so that Tava would not tell me what Samael has been telling her because she wants to see me in per my response in person when she tells me and my brain tries to take it all in
Tava Baird: as usual, Samael started dropping very large, uh, what would you call it?
Wisdom donuts. I guess nuggets just sounds, [00:01:00] you know, I don't know. I don't like that. Well, let's call them wisdom donuts. Um, big fluffy concepts with a hole in the middle that we have to get to. Uh, while I was driving my car yesterday, and actually even a little bit, I think it was the day before that where he started talking about people as portals and places, and I went, do, do dude, like, I don't have a pen and paper.
And, uh, so I've gotten a little. snippet of what he wants to speak on, but apparently quite a bit of it pertains to Jen. So, uh, I was hoping, Jen, maybe you could sing and I'll try to get this seraphim to put all his thoughts in a coherence on the page here.
Jennifer Taylor: Alright. Absolutely. Here we go.
[00:02:00] Ooh.[00:03:00] [00:04:00] [00:05:00] [00:06:00] [00:07:00] [00:08:00]
(Singing a joyful sounding song)
Tava Baird: SO freaking amazing.
Jennifer Taylor: Yay. I
Tava Baird: mean, okay. That song, that song, as soon as someone hits your website, that's so amazing to hear that. [00:09:00] Oh my God.
Jennifer Taylor: Wow. Yay. Oh, I'm so glad.
Tava Baird: Uh, now I'm just dying to read you what he said.
Jennifer Taylor: Oh, I'm so excited. I, I so cannot wait. I'm wondering, should we give the listeners a little bit of background so they understand,
Tava Baird: So here's what he did. He starts talking and in this he basically makes a place where he wants you to tell the story and wow. And then he comes back and explains
Jennifer Taylor: Nice. He is really getting this whole, what we need to do a podcast thing.
Tava Baird: At one point he says, in here, tell your story singer. And then there's like, one more paragraph and then he had me draw a little spiral design. I, I really get the feeling, and this is sometimes we have podcasts where I'm sort of like chopped liver. I'm the secretary bringing stuff in. [00:10:00] I really feel like this is gonna be a conversation between the two of you today.
Jennifer Taylor: alright. Well, yeah, it sounds like he has a grand plan. So let's follow it.
Tava Baird: let's try the Seraphims way and see if it makes sense.
Jennifer Taylor: And by the way, chopped liver does not bring through messages from Seraphim. Just, just, you know, to delineate a little bit, a differentiate.
I'm the secretary.
Tava Baird: Yes, I'm the secretary. The prophet. The prophet. Oh my God, that's such a weird word to have. we have to talk about the oracle deck on a different episode. 'cause there's a prophet card in it that says, Umshallah up the side. Oh yeah, yeah. Um, alright. This is what he said as you were singing, let us speak of place.
Friends, you think of yourself as limited stopping at the skin, or perhaps the room sending your magic forth with great effort. This could not [00:11:00] be further from the truth. You are expansive, timeless, and you may also act as a portal and a place not in the conventional sense. Tell your story, singer. Then I will explain how the temple of song is already formed and how the populace already cries out its name in gratitude and praise.
I have been a place as well, Azazzle, Azazzle, a scapegoat, a sacrifice, a mountain. I am myself. I am a gateway for purification. I am a tower of rock in the desert. Holy, holy, holy.
Jennifer Taylor: Wow. Okay, [00:12:00] so time to tell my story, huh? Yes. Okay. So, a few days ago, my husband and I were watching something on the Gaia, network on divine science, I believe it's called, or, and they were talking about lucid dreaming.
And so I was working on doing this process of as I drift into sleep, and I'm in that, you know, liminal, hypnogogic state to kind of program myself to go into the dream, but either remain lucid, or wake myself up so that I am lucid as I'm as I dream. And they were saying one of the best ways to be able to lucid dream is to simply have a really, really strong reason why you want to do it.
Like something you need to receive. that will be life changing for you. And so I've been really, really struggling with what to call the temple of [00:13:00] song, because it's like this body of all the work and all the things that I'm meant to bring through and the space that kind of holds all of this and all of the healing.
And we'll be hearing about that later. But Sam Yel from the beginning has been calling it the Temple of Song, and it turns out there are multiple other things like that that, you know, in the human sort of world have been, trademarked and all those things and other businesses that are using it.
But I've been so stuck on, we've been calling it the Temple of Song now for at least six months and trying to figure out what do I call it? how do I call it something else? And so I thought, okay, that's my lucid dreaming, desire. That's what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna go into my dream and I'm going to connect with either an aspect of my remembering self or a divine guide who can give me the name that will completely embody all of the energy and the [00:14:00] complete essence of what the temple of Song is and will be a beacon to all those who are in alignment with it, in alignment with the work, the teachings, my energy, all of that, that will be the word that holds the energy of all of it, so that when they hear it, it will act.
like this beacon calling them to this work because this is exactly what they need, where they are on their path. my, my husband always gives me a hard time because, you know, he's like, oh, you know, so you didn't pick anything big. You were just like, oh, we'll just start small. I'm like, oh, of course.
You know, 'cause that's me. So I'm laying there and I'm repeating over and over the mantra to try to get myself to stay lucid. And I was really holding that question of what I wanted, that word, that embodied all of that. And as I am really kind of slipping into that liminal space, I heard the word Amnivara and [00:15:00] it was so clear.
And I was thinking, that is not a word as far as I'm aware, that exists in, at least in the English language, I've never heard of it at all. So I need to hold it. But I didn't want to come out of the space. And so I was doing everything in the world to make sure I would remember it.
And it was interesting because I was trying to figure out, do I spell it with an A or an O at the beginning? And I kept going back and forth and just settled on a, I was like, I, as long as I remember the rest. So the word was Amnivara. And so I wrote it down and then the next day I'm Googling it and googling it.
And there is no Amnivara. anywhere. And I thought, I know exactly. I need to ask Tava to see if Samael has ever heard this word. Because in the past when words have come to me like that, they were actual words that were like used in a civilization a long time ago. They're no longer words that are being used.
And there was a wealth of information that came out about it. So I left [00:16:00] Marco and, was like, okay, what about this word? Oh, and I, I also texted you, I think you actually got the text first before the Marco because she had started texting me and saying, Samael wants to talk about to us about portals and how we can be a portal and a place, and something about that.
All of a sudden it brought up the Amnivara thing. I was like, I have to ask you. I don't know why this is related, but it is. And so I will let Tava take it from here.
Tava Baird: So at that point, Jen texted me and said, has Samael ever heard this word before? And she spelled it with an A and wrote it down.
And I took a moment and sat down and asked him to come look. And the response was very, oh yes, of course. But it was interesting because he pronounced it. Slightly differently as though he was saying it with an accent [00:17:00] from a different language. But he does that a lot because I mean, there are a lot of words that he uses and phrases and things that he chants that are in languages.
I do not speak, I'm pretty sure some of them are in Hebrew. I know for a fact some of them are in a language called Amharic. I think it's spelled A-M-H-A-R-I-C, which if I understand correctly, is a similar language to the language that was being spoken around the time of Jesus preaching in that region.
Um, and then there are times he just babbles in God knows what, right? and he's generally pretty good about offering some sort of translation, but sometimes I will say something to him and you get this reaction of like, oh yes, I know that. And then all of these things start coming out and there just is no explanation.
So I asked him to look at the [00:18:00] word and he immediately was, oh yes, oh yes. But he was saying Eva, like almost like there was an H in it later on and an almost like an a OE or an a EO like ra. And so. Uh, I texted back to Jen that yes, he absolutely has heard of this. And then he said a bunch of other things.
I would have to look on my phone for something about the place where animals speak in a place of stones, I think.
Jennifer Taylor: Yeah. And the first thing was the wild. The wild. The wild. Yes. Yep. And it, that he was connecting it.
Tava Baird: He was connecting it to the divine. 'cause he calls The wild the divine a lot.
He says that, that that is where God can be found is in the wild.
Jennifer Taylor: Yeah. The or place of stones where animals speak greatness and song
Tava Baird: greatness and song. So then, [00:19:00] I can't remember if it was right. Yeah, it must have been right before that he was talking about people as places and portals. But then the next day I'm in the car driving around and I was on my way back from volunteering at a dig at the blue ball in.
I'm driving along on these country roads and I'm about to get on seven and he starts chanting it
over and over again. And next thing I know it's just irresistible. I start doing it too. So I'm driving along in my Jeep, chanting this along with him. And then finally he, his voice sort of fades out and I don't know, he's off to do other seraphim things. And then I played a Marco that I saw was there from Jen, and in the Marco, she starts talking about feeling like this, the word is part of a chant.
And I [00:20:00] lost my composure, um, because I'd just been chanting it along with Sam, and I can't remember where in the day this happened. It's all kind of fuzzy, but at some point he said something about people chanting it in the streets. It is how they spread the word. The temple is open. You might have to look at, I don't remember exactly what I texted.
Jennifer Taylor: Yeah, you, I think it might have been in a Marco. And you were, yeah. You were saying that you were chanting and you were like, wait a minute. What are we doing? And you said he painted this whole picture of like the temple bells ringing and the people who were closest to the temple and could hear it started chanting it and then people would hear them chanting it and would started chanting it and it would start this sort of ripple effect out through the community.
And people would be singing it to let everyone know the temple is open and kind of call them to the [00:21:00] temple.
Tava Baird: Yes. And that's when things started to get weird because then I started asking questions. Wait a second, wait a second, Jen. Is, is assembling a temple of song right now? What people are you talking about?
Like nobody's like, we've mentioned this on the podcast, but not in depth, like we haven't done a whole episode on it or anything. What people on what street are you talking about? And that's when he said to the next thing I'm about to read you that made me pull over my car.
Jennifer Taylor: Yeah. And when it's funny 'cause when you said that, I was thinking, oh this is from some other like, you know, maybe in ancient Tibet or you know, in some like Middle Eastern place where the temples, I was like, this is maybe some ancient culture where this used to happen because I tend to remember things.
From, you know, hundreds of years ago. [00:22:00] I was like, oh, it's just some other culture because it's another language. It's some other culture. Like that's, that's what he's describing. It sounds like that is far from the truth.
Tava Baird: Hold on to your pants kids. Uh, 'cause this is what the Seraphim had to say. So he says, Aoemniva'hra the people, echo its name began in an angelic language, and we'll talk about that later.
But then he says what you call the power of story, and this is addressed to you, Jen, what you call the power of story. It is a lesson that the creation of music and tales creates an actual energetic place. Yes,
Jennifer Taylor: yes.
Tava Baird: We talk about platforms and things, right? So we've talked about that. When you sing, when you dance, when you paint, when you tell a story, you are creating an [00:23:00] actual energetic place.
People can visit together. And here we go. How many times have you sung Singer? Where did the songs go? They built the temple Aoemniva-hra. It progressed as you progressed. It has drawn unbodied visitors. They have waited for its baptism and now you have named it. Its doors are open. All that remains is its growth and the walkway to it built so the embodied here can join the others. The temple has had many incarnations just as you have. It rises again and again. There is much rejoicing that its space [00:24:00] is being returned to the people once more. So here's the thing. We've been going, Jenn is going to create this thing called the Temple of Song, and you've been looking through all of the different things that you've learned over the years in assembling your songs.
He claims that from the minute you started singing in this incarnation. So the temple has stood before and then it has at different times fallen into disrepair. If you had lifetimes where you didn't remember it, if you had, you know, lifetimes where your attention was elsewhere, but that the temple itself has a history started with your first incarnation.
And it was built out of all the energy you raised and all the songs that you sung and that it was a place of healing and the unbodied were [00:25:00] drawn to visit it. Right? Sometimes they might hear you sing in this plane. Sometimes they were in other places, who knows exactly, but was on their map. But then you passed out of this life and we don't know exactly what you did in between.
And so perhaps it wasn't as maintained for a while. Then you had another life where you began to sing again and the unbodied started gathering around and putting it back together. It became an active place again. And this temple each time raises and grows more raises. Sort of like when you look at cathedrals.
They start off as a small, like as one building, and then people start adding things on over the years until it becomes a complex. What he's saying is that from the first song you sang to someone else in this lifetime that started the rebuilding of the temple [00:26:00] and that the unbodied, who already visited and know it and revere it and know its history and may have visited it before, got excited.
Every single time you have sung, every time you did a healing session for someone else, every time you were adding to that platform, those songs were going along the theory of the power of story. They were creating not a million tiny separate places, but they were coming together in the power that was you and the people that visited have been watching it being rebuilt.
But now you have become aware of its presence. You have started gathering all of your history together. You have given it its name, you've remembered its name. In doing that, the word is now [00:27:00] starting to spread through the streets. The temple is active, that you are aware of it, that it is going to grow. So this name, this Amnivara that you are remembering started off as a name for this place a long time ago.
And I believe Michael, other Angels, the word came from an angelic language because the place needed a name. But now that you've remembered it, you've essentially gone, boom, the doors are opening. And so the word is being passed. That's the people in the streets that he's talking about. The temple is open again, and that you are now going to be present in it again, almost like a deity returning to a temple, right?
Your divine creativity is now in line, you know, [00:28:00] aware of this place. And so what he's trying to say is that you don't have to build anything from scratch. What you are working on now is building a bridge between this holy place that has been birthed by you over all of your lifetimes. You are building a bridge so that the embodied can visit it by listen, you know, working with you here and journeying things here.
But the thing that blew my mind about that is I never connected the power of story to all the times that you had sung before. I never thought about where did those songs go? What did they do? Every single one of those we know had to create something energetically, according to what Samael says about power of story.
So if that's true. The temple's already up [00:29:00] and functioning. And what you are really trying to do right now is figure out how to build a bridge so that the embodied access, the lessons there. And that's the work that you're doing. there's already an entire populace out there that visits this place and knows it and remembers you, and remembers.
And you are at once. Jennifer Taylor, earthly human. You are also the energetic divine being at the center of the temple. You are a place, right? And if you could put together your lessons here to allow the embodied here to access the things that the unbodied to already visit that platform can access, you'll be acting as a portal [00:30:00] for them to visit it.
Now, Samael says he has also been a place, and this was one of the things, so he said the name, name, Azazzle, Azzazle. And I looked Azazzle up. 'cause you know, in all of my Googling of angels and stuff and old stories, I've seen the name pop up and I thought, eh, it's an angel. If I understand correctly, and if there is someone listening to this podcast who is of a Jewish background, and I know there's at least one, because I'm very good friends with you, please correct me if I'm wrong, if I understand correctly, there is an old, old, old Hebrew tradition where they would take two goats out into the desert once a year.
And one it says, I think it might still say it in the Bible. One goat was for God and the other was for [00:31:00] Azazzle. And the idea, this is where the concept of a scapegoat comes from, the idea was that one goat would hold all of the sins of the people and then it would be driven off into the desert to die as a sacrifice.
And the other goat, which was now pure and everything, because the other one had gone off with all the sins attached to it, basically, I don't know if it you'd call them sins. All of the impurities of the people had gone off. This other goat was pure and could be sacrificed to the Lord. Right. Well, so you look at that reading of One goat is for Azazzle.
There are some biblical scholars who say that Azazzle was a demon, and that's where those were going But there is also a mount, [00:32:00] Azazzle near, I think it's into Israel. And so other biblical scholars say, no, Azazzle is a place, it's the place where the goat was driven to that mountain for sacrifice.
So Azazzle could be a person or an entity, a demon, and a place. And on further research, guess who Azazzle is linked to in the old texts? Samael.
Jennifer Taylor: Wow.
Tava Baird: Yes. So when Samael and I read that and I went, I had never heard that before about him. So back here in our first section, he says, I have been a place as well, Azazzle, Azazzle, a scapegoat, sacrifice, a mountain.
I am myself. [00:33:00] I am a gateway or a portal for purification. I am a tower of rock in the desert. He's a mountain. Holy, holy, holy. He's three things. And what he's pointing out is that you are the same. You are yourself. You are a gateway for healing with your work with the Temple of Song on this plane. You are also a temple in this energetic space.
Holy, holy, holy.
Jennifer Taylor: Wow.
There's a profound response for you. Uh, and
Tava Baird: that's the face I was waiting to see yesterday.
Jennifer Taylor: Yeah. Just, uh, kinda like I've been smacked upside the wow. Okay.
Tava Baird: So I know you're like, I might need to go lie down. Comcast is over for today. Do lots
Jennifer Taylor: of things. Might like it. It's like you know, the, emoji where it shows the [00:34:00] brain and then it's like exploded and there are all these pieces of it floating out in space.
I feel like that's what's happened and I'm trying to grab the pieces and kind of pull 'em back together so that I can make sentences.
Tava Baird: So, so we should have gone slower. I'm sorry.
Jennifer Taylor: No, it's fine. Was it too excited? It didn't matter how long it took it to go in, it would still have, I think, had the same sort of reaction.
It's, it does make sense. It's just that I never would've thought of this. Like ever. And it is really incredible to me. The idea that every song I have ever sung was going to. Adding to and creating this temple of song like that is just mind blowing. I mean, I, it's like, I think of this work as not having started until maybe the last year or maybe the last like six [00:35:00]years or so, that I've been really deeply like, you know, day in, day out, immersing myself in all of this, but not that like from the time I was three and taking voice lessons and singing in these little recitals and, you know, singing, you know, you take the high road and I'll take the low road and I'll get to Scotland before ye, you know, that that was great song, you know, that was building the temple.
And like every, every song I've sung in any sort of way, I mean, it's almost like I'm seeing this like quick life review of all the different times and different ways I've sung. Like, you know, I used to drive between Wake Forest and Virginia Tech where I was dating somebody and I would drive in like the middle of the night because you know, that's the kind of idiotic thing you do when you're in, in college.
And there was a point in the road where I would get afraid [00:36:00] because it was the middle of nowhere. There was no such thing as cell phones. I was by myself and I would get afraid and I would start to sing. And there were these certain songs that I would sing over and over and over, and it would banish the fear and it would clear everything.
And I knew nothing about energy work and nothing about these things. And it's like, I think about the songs that I, and I wrote and sang in church, or songs that I sang in the many bands that I was in. And it's just incredible that all of those, all of those were creating the Temple of Song, not like the spiritual ones, you know, or the ones that I started singing.
Like it, it's easier to take in the idea that, okay, since I've started recognizing sound as healing and have been, you know, intentionally channeling healing song, it's like, okay, well that kind of makes sense that those would be going into it. But the idea that every song, you know, every song I sang to on the radio or [00:37:00] karaoke in the basement or Lullaby by Kate, by Sang, yeah, yeah.
Ditched by Kate. You know, it's like all these, all of these songs that seemed so disparate, you know, All of them were building. The Temple of Song is really, I think, possibly even more mind blowing than the idea that I am a person, a place, and a portal.
Tava Baird: Well, and I mean, and he started, and I, I can ask him to do this more, but he started talking about, if you think about our last couple of podcasts, we were talking about stones holding the energy, and saves, holding the energy of who had passed by them.
And one of the things he was singing the other day is that the people are picking up the stones. Like almost every song you've ever sung, every story like it, it's a separate stone in building the temple. Again, he doesn't want you to get overwhelmed. He [00:38:00] said, I wish to offer it as a comfort singer. Your work is already well underway.
He's trying to illustrate when you're like, oh my God, I have so much to do, or I'm never gonna get this off the ground. Oh, it's off the ground. Like it's ready to open in one area already. He said everything led to the opening of the doors, all of it.
Jennifer Taylor: Yeah. It, it is a great comfort and it is definitely, my mind is definitely not blown in a bad way or an overwhelming way.
Like it is a huge comfort. The idea of like, how am I supposed to build this grand thing that he's described in so many amazing glowing kinds of ways? The idea that it's already there and that. And you know, when you think about it, it takes a lot of pressure off when you think that
Like I've been building it for my entire life, not even knowing it. [00:39:00] So being aware of it and consciously connecting and adding to it makes, it makes life seem a lot easier or this whole task seem a lot easier. And that, and if I'm understanding it correctly, it's not that my work is to build it, my work is to simply help
people in bodies connect to it? Because yes, if I am, again, cr understanding it correctly, the temple is already up and running and people are already in it receiving healing and transformation and growth and lessons and remembering. so it's already a place where all this is already happening.
I just need to help people connect with it.
Yes. And
that seems a whole lot easier than the idea of constructing it there and here. And the idea too, that it's not so much a place that I am building here is I'm building like the loading dock, you know? Yes. and connecting [00:40:00] people to it as opposed to Yeah.
You know, it's now my words are starting to disappear.
Tava Baird: Well, and I also, when we go back to guys, if you have not listened to the podcast on the power of story, I highly recommend doing that as a maybe stop in prerequisite, go back, do that one and then come back. Remember, he also talked about that once a place was constructed for the power of story, that the people who visited it bring their energies and help it grow and change.
So this temple has gone up and then started to crumble when you weren't in residence and then gone up and then over time, right? It keeps getting rebuilt bigger and grander. But in between all of those times where you may not been aware of it, like when you were eight years old, your songs are still going there to support it and build it.
But it's surrounded by these unbodied entities, by what we might call angels [00:41:00] or goddesses or ancestors or what have you, who do remember it's lifespan who visited it before who are coming back as part of a pilgrimage. And when they are there, if you are not aware of it, they put the stones in and they sing and they tend to it.
What they're celebrating now when passing through the streets is you in this incarnation remembering the name and starting to chant it and suddenly being like, oh my God, there it is. And they're like, she's is back. She's in residence. Bigger work will now happen. Pass the chant through the streets, Aoemniva-hra, Aoemniva-hra, that she has a memory of this holy place and they are flocking back to it to help you [00:42:00] expand it so that you can not only offer your energy and your connection to the divine and your healing powers to them, you can reach out and make it accessible to those non remembering folks here who are embodied and don't remember their own divinity.
Jennifer Taylor: So that is absolutely amazing. Like, so incredible. And I, I think about it. So, and I remember at the beginning when the Temple of Song was just kind of being, Revealed again. and Samael was just kept saying, it is the temple of song. Like we would, we would do things and he will say, it is the Temple of song, and I'll, you know, I'll tell you something else or an idea I have.
And he's like, it is the temple of song. And you know, before, like when he was just starting to mention, and drop the temple of song words here and there, [00:43:00] and he was talking about this, he was talking about that I would lead people to each of the four cornerstones.
And that at each cornerstone there would be like a series of kind of like lessons and things that I would teach them, and then also a collection of guides that are there that would help people that I would kind of introduce them to, or that they would continue work with that would support it.
and there were, , a series of, like nature, lessons and and. the last one was the ancestors and all of these lessons. So it sounds like part of my building that bridge is, is teaching these lessons because these lessons help people to make energetic connections.
Yes. To feel, to learn how to feel the energy, learn how to work with energy and manipulate energy in this earthly realm so that then they can enhance these connections, help to feel into [00:44:00] these and be able to access the guidance and the healing and I guess, be able to kind of get to the temple of song where the energies and the beings will continue to help them on their journey.
Is this sounding like it makes sense? Yes.
Tava Baird: when he was talking, and it was funny because when I first like pulled over the car and went What? He was like, power of story. It's a song builds an energetic space. Where did you think all her songs went? And I went, uh, I don't know. He's like, if they're all creating something and her life's work is the temple of Song across many lifetimes.
What did you think they were like? It was, to him it was just like, well, yeah, how come you didn't think about this? And I just hadn't, um. But yeah, the way he was describing it to me is, okay, imagine you're an angel, you're a being of energy. You can [00:45:00] pop to the energetic place and visit it very easily.
And, you know, it's, it's its own platform. It's its own world. It's its own sacred space. And that's what we've, we're trying to create for people here with the power of story at the, fertile ground gathering. Right? And in these recordings we've been working on this summer, Samael basically says, when we are embodied here, we forget our connection to the divine.
We choose to come down, be in a body, forget the majority of that connection so that we can explore new patterns and help the all expand. And, you know, those get fed back to Metatron and that's an entire, another podcast. But if you think about it, these people, we we're in body, we don't remember, we are essentially, it's similar to as if you were bringing somebody to a place who had mobility issues.
Right. You know, like the energetic beings don't care [00:46:00] about the flight of stairs up to the temple. But somebody like me with a bad knee, absolutely cares about those stairs, right? It's harder to get the embodied forgetting there because we have a body, we're very grounded in thinking a lot of times that this world is all there is.
And a lot of times we have difficulty connecting to the divine because, and that's by design, that's part of our incarnation. So essentially you are building a wheelchair ramp for us. That's what your work with the lessons and all the meditations and the singing and all of that is, is your making this ramp up there so that we can go around and walk the path of pilgrimage with the others.
We can be part of the group. We can get a little closer to remembering divine connection, and it will [00:47:00] sustain us while we are incarnated so that we have the strength to do the work that we need to do. So I think Samael wanted to tell you this, A, I think he was just like, what do you think the songs went, but B, when you were having to worry about I have to raise a cathedral from the ground myself, he's wanting to tell you that holy site is there.
It's been in various states of repair over time, it has had a flux or influx of visitors. Those visitors, even when you're not in residence, continue to treat it as a holy site. They will bring stones of their energy and their place to contribute. They assemble the stones of song that you have sent there.
Every lullaby you sang, your daughters, every fairy story that you told them became part of it. And what they're excited about now is you have turned [00:48:00] around and gone, oh my God, it's already standing. I just gotta put the ramp on. And Samael is hoping that this will be a comfort. And I think that's why all along he's just been like, it is the temple of song.
As to him. He's already been there. He knew the word because somebody many, many, many, a long time ago, some angel gave a name so that people could refer to it. And the name has changed and shifted a little bit over time as people said it and chanted it and passed it on in their own languages. They recognize it.
And so the fact that you went, wait, well think I know the word basically triggered this response on that energetic platform of she remembers us. Now we will go through a period of rapid expansion. New people will be able to access it, and they are singing in the street. [00:49:00] Ra the temple is open,
Jennifer Taylor: so. Word wise.
I know you were saying that. So this is an angelic language word.
Tava Baird: It started that way. Yes, it
Jennifer Taylor: started that way. So at the very beginning, like maybe at the, you know, the, the dawning of my soul.
Tava Baird: Yes.
Jennifer Taylor: Um, and it said, it sounded like you said Michael maybe have given it his name. I, it might've
Tava Baird: been Michael. He men mentioned something about Michael.
Can I ask him? Yeah. Michael.
Jennifer Taylor: Wow. So boy we go way back,
Tava Baird: yeah.
Jennifer Taylor: To the dawning of my soul. And at that point he gave this temple that it sounds like is really the entire, like, soul's purpose that has gone through for, from the very beginning of my soul. He gave it this name that may, have [00:50:00] shifted and morphed over time.
And so when I asked for that name, I, I'm still, and this should not surprise me, this kind of thing happens all the time. But I'm still amazed, like when I asked for that name and I was in that hypnogogic state, I heard it like I was really actually given the name, that was the name that was given to it.
From the beginning of, you know, the sense of that I have time and from Michael, and it really does then, I mean, surely that holds, I mean, you know, we talk about, I've talked about so much that there are certain languages that hold within the language, hold the entire essence of what something is, and I am quite sure that an angelic language would do that.
It's like, I, I'm so overwhelmed with like [00:51:00] gratitude and excitement and just amazement that, that I actually received the word, like I actually heard the word and it was an angelic language word that really holds all that is the temple of what, Samael's been calling the Temple of Song.
Tava Baird: Have more information for you.
Jennifer Taylor: Oh, yay.
Tava Baird: He said that when you were a child in your first incarnation, there was a time when you were upset just before you sang your first song and Michael came and sat with you and offered you words of comfort in one of the languages that he speaks in an angelic language. And one of the words that he said as he held you.
Was, it's a word of comfort. And you [00:52:00] started to sing the word, and he saw it as a blessing and took that word and named the place, created by your first song after that word of comfort. And then it became called that by others.
Jennifer Taylor: Wow.
Tava Baird: You, he says, you sang it. He gave the child a blessing, a word of comfort before your first song, he sang it with you.
It is a word you said.
Jennifer Taylor: Wow.
Tava Baird: So it sounds like Michael was trying to comfort you in his own language, and then you started repeating the word as young children do, and it was the root of your first real song. So the word not only encompasses [00:53:00]everything you have learned and your particular energy, but it is also has its roots in a word of angelic comforting.
Jennifer Taylor: Wow. That is, that is the sweetest thing. I mean the, the image of Michael sitting and. You know, speaking to me, words of blessing, trying to comfort me as like this, little baby before I sang my first song and then naming it after that. Like that is the sweetest thing. And the idea that Michael has been with me all this time
Tava Baird: just realized, because Samael has, we, I know before on the podcast we've talked about, Samael said that he has been there at the moment of all of my births, like in a lot of lifetimes, I never acknowledged, I never understood that he was even there.
Jennifer Taylor: Yeah,
Tava Baird: apparent. But we've never asked how long Michael's been with you. [00:54:00]
Jennifer Taylor: And apparently he's been there. It had occurred to me a little while ago. I was like, why do I always say Archangel Michael as opposed to just referring to him as Michael At this point, I say Archangel Michael all the time and I was like, well, there are a lot of Michaels in my, like my dad's name is Michael.
My husband's middle name is Michael. My middle name is Michelle, which is the female version of Michael. We named our daughter. We gave her the middle name of Michelle. So Michael's name is embedded in so much of my family and the people around, and I was thinking. I wonder if this is, I mean like by design, like the idea that my father first name and my husband's middle name was Michael was pretty amazing.
Tava Baird: Yeah.
Jennifer Taylor: I [00:55:00] mean, I was like, it seems like too much of a coincidence, but I was like, I mean, that goes back to when my dad was named, you know, was my grandmother connected to that? And then I was thinking maybe he's sort of been around for my larger family. Like, I don't know, maybe it's, it's not necessarily just me, but sort of a greater group that's been coming together.
But for all these, versions of Michael, to be in the names of the people around me is pretty amazing.
Tava Baird: He has been around you for a very long time, and I'm also just struck by this idea of an angel holding child, and Samael says, it's hard to fall. You fell into a body from a divine place, a fallen angel of sorts are the embodied all not fallen [00:56:00] angels, which redefines for us what a fallen angel is, I guess.
Jennifer Taylor: Yep. Yeah. Yeah. And I keep coming back to that. it totally echoes that Neil Donald Walsh book where in it God is talking, you know, to that baby. Oh, I highly recommend that book. I know I've talked about it before, the Little Soul and the Sun, and he says, I have sent you only angels it's like basically when you go into this earthly body and you, experience the forgetting
He's like, remember, I have sent you only angels. And it's really amazing to hear every time Samael says that, I think, yeah. How incredible is that? And it makes me wonder too, you know, given that I, I sometimes forget that we are not in a private conversation. That is just what is happening when we're doing this.
You, for the sake of others who are listening and going, oh my gosh, I [00:57:00] wish I had an angel with me from the beginning of things. I have a feeling that Samael might have some words for others who are listening and going, okay, so, you know, Tava gets Samael, who's been with her from the beginning of this. Jen has Archangel Michael who's been doing all this.
You know, what about me? I think it would be really helpful to get an understanding from Samael of something that would help others to. See that I cannot believe, I do not believe that we are the only, that we are an exception to a rule by any means.
Tava Baird: Hold on. He's saying something right now.
all right. So this is what he has to say in response to that. They are, here we are, here we come. According to your work, what you each must do is discover that work. So [00:58:00] Jen has spent her whole life moving towards being a person who could bring through the divine in order to heal, in order to help people grow.
He has been able to find that first rung on the ladder and start to climb. And one of the things we've been marveling about lately is this. If you listen to podcast episode one and two, it is nothing like this podcast. And that was just over a year ago. We started in August of last year. Right. And at that point we were just, we felt like we'd been through a lot and we had.
But we were in a completely different place than our lives are right now. And the, the way that we move now, and I mean the trajectory has been a very, very, very sharp upward. We [00:59:00] found our work, what it was that we needed to do, which was help connect people to the divine. And then we had to go through an entirely long period of, wait, I'm not worthy to do this work.
And that's where most people get stuck. Then you had a quote a couple of podcasts ago that was talking about self-worth being the biggest obstacle for growth or something like that.
Jennifer Taylor: Yeah. I'm trying to remember. It was
Tava Baird: right before you went on retreat or right around the time you went on retreat, you had a quote that was about that, that it's, it's the stories we tell ourselves that we not worthy prevent us from having spiritual growth.
So, and I mean, you guys got to listen to us go through that in real time. I mean, you still hear me describe myself as chopped liver today. Right. You know, like self-worth is a huge thing that we deal with. [01:00:00] And all the work that Sam has me doing with Lilith, and in the name of Lilith right now is all about that.
Um, and then we started to hold onto this idea. That, you know what we needed to get past this worth idea because we had work to do. And so what Samael is saying is you all have ancestors around you. You have angels around you. You have gods and goddesses around you, fairies, butterflies, whatever it is you wanna call them, right?
You have the divine around you. But as long as you believe that you are not worthy, or as long as you let yourself get bogged down in the television news and Facebook or you know, okay, I'm on Facebook too, but you know, the, whoever's arguing with whomever in your comment section and you're putting yourself in a position where, you forget that there is a connection and there are [01:01:00] ways to access and connect the divine to the divine, and you stop working towards that, that's when you can't hear them.
So if you can discover what your work is, you know, I have a very dear friend who, has now discovered what, you know, she knew it. Now she's actually moving into, working with the, you know, she's a death doula. She is working with home funerals. She is now really stepping into her role, and I know she's listening.
She's one of the first people that listens every week. But to watch her sort of take that step forward into really wholeheartedly being able to do the work and she's just watching all the doors fly open. Now she's hearing her guides come in stronger than ever before. Right. And Jen, to look at where we were last year versus this year and how many [01:02:00] more guides and how much more inspiration and how many more connections we have.
They're there people. They are there. You just need to get to a place where you can hear them better.
Jennifer Taylor: Thank you so much to all of you for joining us again here today. As usual, our conversation became two podcasts, so this is the end of part one, but as I didn't sing again until the very end, I didn't want to leave you without a song. And so what I've decided to do is. Include here a song that, I have recorded and put out on band camp called Blessings of Place.
this is a song that I recorded in two parts. The first part was a recording that I made in conscious communion with the beings of this amazing place in the mountains of Vermont. It was in the forest and [01:03:00] by the river. And the hermit thrush was singing and I asked the beings there, the beings of place to please share their energy in this recording so that others would be able to benefit and experience it, who couldn't be there physically, and they came through in spades.
and then I brought it home and I channeled those same beings along with the stones that I brought back with me that you've probably heard me talk about in other podcasts that have really become a companion and guide. And I channeled those through my voice and overlaid it with the recordings of the forest and the sounds of the water.
So I hope that it is as much of a blessing for you to receive it as it was for me to make it. if this is something that would be beneficial for you to access again, I'll put a link to it in show notes where you can go to band camp and find it and be able to get [01:04:00] it there so that you don't have to scroll through all the way through, the entire podcast episode, just to be able to listen.
So. Many, many blessings to you throughout the rest of your week, and I really look forward to continuing our conversation next week.
[01:05:00] [01:06:00] [01:07:00] [01:08:00] [01:09:00]
