A few words from Andrea Mikana-Pinkham,
Director/ Founder of Sacred Sites Journeys
andreapinkham.jpg (21592 bytes)
Since 1994 my husband Mark Amaru Pinkham and I have been blessed
with the honor to operate and lead spiritual journeys
to many of the world's powerful sacred sites.

During these last fifteen years, I've seen those who have traveled with us
make profound connections with the still-palpable mystical energies
at these ancient power spots.
They've strengthened their connection with their own Inner Guidance
and grown on all levels during the journey...as well as after.
And quite a few of them are repeat travelers who journey with us each year. 
It's our joy and passion in life to support you to experience this too!

I invite you to travel with us on an awe-inspiring transformational Sacred Sites Journey!
I assure you that there will be life before your spiritual pilgrimage
and life afterwards...and that they won't be the same!
You will be changed forever in many positive ways
as you encounter and engage
the ancient energies and esoteric wisdom at the sacred sites you will explore.
They are calling you! Will you open your heart and mind and heed their call?

Let us Support You to Manifest Your Sacred Travel Dreams!

We invite you to follow your intuitive guidance
and gift yourself with a Sacred Sites Journey
to one or more of these spectacular power places!

There was a general understanding prior to the brief centuries of our present culture, that the earth was alive, with subtle but powerful forces flowing through its body, the land. These concentrated at various points that came to be regarded as totemic spots, sacred areas, power places, or temples...Each of these locations had its own quality, tutelary deity or "spirit of place". They were points of geographical sanctity.  Paul Devereux, from Places of Power

SPECIAL EVENT!

World Congress of Initiatic Societies
Macerata, Italy
April 17, 2010
IOGT Grand Prior Mark Amaru Pinkham

Sponsored by The International Order of Gnostic Templars
and The
OSMTH Templar Order of Italy

Delegates from Secret Societies from all over the globe will come together to discuss their common origins and the possibility of reuniting now in a World Alliance for Planetary Enlightenment. These groups originally began as part of the Underground Stream to both practice and guard the primal gnostic-alchemical path. That goal has been attained. Now it's time to reunite for the even greater mission of spreading this important path and its teachings worldwide. If prophecy proves correct, this is the point in history when it's time for the patriarchal theology that stagnates human evolution by affirming that Spirit exists outside the human heart to finally step aside and allow all people to realize the fullness of their innate divinity.

The last time a conference of this genre and caliber occurred was in Paris in 1785. It was attended by St. Germain, Cagliostro and many other high-ranking Secret Society leaders. The goal of that gathering was the same as the upcoming one - to throw off the yoke of patriarchal control in a campaign for spiritual freedom. However, that gathering ended in the violence of the French Revolution. Times have changed, and we can now acknowledge the futility of resorting to violence in a quest for world peace. Instead, we simply want to extend a hand to those persons in the world who are thirsting for the inner peace of gnosis.
