Native  legends  speak  of  Crystal Skulls  as  an inheritance from ancient times.  Said to “talk and sing” they are believed to carry messages for all humankind,  including  what  may  be discovered when we overcome our fear of death.

"The first layer of working with any crystal skull, including Synergy, is "to remember."  This is the first layer - and this layer has many other layers within it.  What you are to called to remember is who you really are.  It's so easy to get caught up in the daily things and forget that each life is short and sweet, even with the difficulties. The real you is a Being of Light. You are a Spiritual Being, inside of a physical body.   Remember..."   Sherry W. Merrell


About Sherry - in her own words

"I guess you could say that intuitive abilities run in my family because just about everyone, on both my mother's and father's sides, have a fairly strong "sixth sense" of some sort. I just seemed to get a bigger "dose" of the family 'juice'.   I was never given an undue amount of attention for any psychic abilities.  It was just an accepted part of life by my family.   I can’t remember a time that I couldn’t see and hear ‘things’ that other people seemed unaware of.  I’ve routinely experienced things that our language and culture have no accurate words to describe. I can't remember a time when I was 100% alone. I’ve always been aware of “Beings of Light” that are with everyone. 

At school I realized that others didn’t have experiences like mine.  I grew fearful that I was delusional.  At 16  I decided to “make the crazy things stop happening.”   So, I went to various churches, looking for help.  Some told me I had a ‘gift’ and would discover how God wanted me to use it.  But I just wanted to give it back.  Since church couldn't stop my experiences, I tried psychiatry. 

I felt I must be psychotic.  I saw a psychiatrist and begged him to 'fix' me. After extensive testing, the Doctor  told me I didn't have a brain tumor and explained it was his professional opinion I was having ‘ESP type’  experiences, not psychotic episodes.  He suggested I meet with other clairvoyants.  I also met other medical doctors and researchers who assured me that there was, indeed, a scientific basis for what he was telling me.   Eventually, I learned to trust this Doctor -- and he began to help me to accept myself.   I ended up working for him for a while as an "in‑office psychic".  A second doctor later helped me accept that this is "normal" for me.
 
During the last 30 years, I've had my own business and done well.  My journal’s helped me to see that the information I receive is solid, practical and always of benefit.  I’ve learned about self‑mastery, rather than the mastery of others.  My journey hasn't been easy, but then, nothing worthwhile in life is…I have also learned that some of these techniques can also be used by people wanting to open and expand their consciousness.   So, when I have the time and energy, I share some of these  simple techniques to increase spiritual awareness.   An important thing I've learned is that being "psychic" neither means being "crazy" or "spiritual" either.  There are beautiful, loving souls with psychic abilities and also  power hungry, lying manipulators.   The path of power or the path of love is a personal choice. Opening psychic realms can become a  trap, if power is what you focus on, instead of love."

Synergy  is the quality that this skull is said to represent and its name.   Synergy means "the cooperative action of two or more entities, to bring about a total effect that is greater than what either can do alone".  Anyone who has experienced this crystal skull when it is active will tell you that these combined energies are incredible.

Synergy was in a South American village when it was acquired in the 1980s by a European businessman while hiking in the Andes.  A native elder gave it to him, saying the skull itself had chosen him to take it to the West to someone who would know what to do with it.  He was told it had been the property of a local Catholic nun who considered it a symbol of the transcendence of Soul over death.  She said that it carried the message of immortal life and the illumination that we may discover when we lose our fear of death.  A jewelry designer, the European used it as an accent display for his jewelry for a over a dozen years until he brought it to the Tucson Gem Show in February 2001.  There he met gem-stone expert and recognized intuitive counselor, Sherry Whitfield Merrell.  After she admired it, he found himself telling her “I think you should have this.”  He felt the crystal skull itself wanted to go with Sherry and so he followed his heart and gave it to her.   After thinking about it overnight, she accepted, having no thoughts of what she might do with it.  It was their hearts’ decision, not logical or rationally considered.

Sherry began “listening” to Synergy when dealing with clients who came to her for intuitive spiritual counseling.  She also displayed it at some local shows.  Then, in 2005, a man from an island in Micronesia, who’d seen a photo of Synergy in a newspaper, visited her, and bought a small modern amethyst skull that had been in Synergy’s energy field.  He felt it was a “reunion” for them both.  Later, after corroborating his feelings with his tribal elders in the Pacific, he told Sherry a most-unusual story of how Synergy had once belonged to their tribe, having been brought there from the Americas thousands of generations ago for safe-keeping.  This Native tribe still reveres other ancient skull artifacts today.  These elders told their Westernized traveler that in fact the skull Sherry calls Synergy had long ago “spoken” to their ancestors, requesting to be “sent out” as a messenger of their reverence for life and collective wisdom.  Thus they’d returned it to the Americas, where it eventually was given to the Spanish nun, then to the Andean village elder, then to George, the European jeweler, and ultimately to Sherry Whitfield Merrell.     Sherry firmly believes that this ancient talisman has reappeared at this time to help those who seek deeper connections to ancestral and Earth wisdom and so she took it to Europe and to the Four Directions Wisdom Gathering of Native elders in Sedona in May 2007.  Now she’s agreed to bring Synergy to Sedona again just for a few private Shamanic Healing Sessions with Kallista Snow on Saturday + Sunday, March 7-8, 2009.   

 

A limited number of Private Sessions are available during the day on Saturday and Sunday -  March 7 - 8, 2009

Clients will have the opportunity to experience the unique energy of Synergy through a variety of Shamanistic and energy techniques that serve to facilitate, as well as, intensify the experience.   Clients will also receive a short reading.   Different levels are accessed when Synergy works with the combined energies of Sherry & Kallista.   Kallista's  Citrine Crystal Skull: Gaia-Luz  will also be available during all the private sessions.   
 
Each session will last approximately 20 minutes and will include being able to touch Synergy.   Please bring appropriate crystal or small precious objects to put in Synergy's energy field.  As space is very limited, advance appointments are required. 
Each session costs $60.  If space is available, you may book 2 "back-to-back" sessions for more time with Synergy, Sherry & Kallista.  We will inform all who register of the time & place of their private session.    There will be NO public lecture this visit.
