I am Michelle Many, a Chippewa Indian from the Turtle Mountain Clan. I have been researching various Native American sites. I began visiting Chimney Rock in Southern Colorado a few years ago and return quite regularly to visit with the big rock. On one of my visits, I visited Chimney Rock from a nearby forest and took a few pictures of the Cosmic Telephone.

I visited the rock in 2006 and had taken the tour with a wonderful and friendly ranger. Chimney Rock is an ancient temple that was designed by ancient people much as the pyramids of Egypt were. The tour showed me some interesting things about the rock and its ruins. 300 kiva's lining the ridge on the way up to the main kiva that was entered after passing a "guard shack", as the ranger called it or perhaps it was a final smudging station before entering the great kiva at the top of the hill.

The architecture utilized cornerstone technology that was not usually known to the kind of ancient stone age people that the ranger was describing. 300 ceremonials kiva's for different clans who gathered at the rock for their star ceremonies were not homes as the ranger described them, as they were no bodies found there according to an answer that was given by the ranger to one of my pertinent questions. These were place to gather group clans for prayer with each clan before all clans joined together in the Great Kiva

I could feel the ancestors dancing beside me as I walked up the path and passed the final gate and went into the Great Kiva. I saw star dances and night rituals to the planets and the moon. I saw that all roads led to Chimney Rock the way all roads lead to Chaco and Fajada Butte, another ancient temple. I saw that these two places were ancient star gates and were part of our connection as Earth beings to other planets and star beings.

I thanked the ranger for being a caretaker of such an important site and told him that his respect for the place was appreciated by all. He took us back to the ranger station and put me on the phone with a marvelously intelligent and tuned in ranger named Victoria White. Victoria and I talked for nearly an hour. She was wonderful and answered all of my questions. She told me that the rangers and caretakers knew more than they were telling the tourists, mostly because the local Native tribes had asked them to keep certain things quiet. I respected that and we shared some secrets. It seemed that she was an angel sent to protect the star gate.

When I visited the rock the next time in 2007, I sat with the rock and asked all of the questions that had been on my mind since my visit last year. As I sat a distance away and could view the whole feature at once, I was given visions of this great ancient temple as it was before it became an inactive ruin.

Chimney Rock is a galactic star gate, a major Earth temple that needs to be reactivated so that we can regain ancient knowledge that has been lost and once again communicate with the other worlds in our galaxies and universe.

Here is a picture that I took of Chimney Rock in September 2007. The sphinx is quite obvious here. I also saw that the head of the sphinx is the head of an Indian who is the ancient of days. His body is encased in the pyramidal mountain that supports the rock. I saw the rock in back as the actual star gate transceiver. These ancient temples around the Earth hold the key to our transition to the new world as the old world collapses with the climactic changes that are occurring as Mother Earth cleanses herself and the stars and the Earth realign to form new patterns that affect this little blue body that orbits our Sun and create a new world cycle for planet Earth.

It is a big universe and many galaxies reside within it, certainly there is life out there and they are probably watching our channel once in a while. This is a note to open our hearts and minds to the possibilities that may exist outside of our normal parameters. To open to the knowledge that in our heart resides the frequency of love and that is the frequency of evolution for the beings of the Earth no matter which tribe they are from.

The Lunar Standstill

 The lunar standstill at Chimney Rock in October of 2008, was one of the most amazing things that I have ever experienced in my life. Thank you to Victoria White for making that happen for me. The standstill lasts every 18.6 years and lasts for only a short period. At the time of the standstill, the moon rises between the two spires that comprise the rock formation. This place marks the 18 phases of the moon. The Grand Kiva aligns with the sun on the solstice. The early Natives to this land would utilize this sacred place and these sacred times to do ceremonies to the Moon, the stars and to the Earth.

As I sat in the dark with a dozen other lunatics and witnessed this magical event, I could see the two towers of rock vibrating like two gigantic tuning forks, bringing in the cosmic energy from the moon and stars. I could feel things shifting inside of me and all around me as these cosmic waves of moonlight filled the land of this sacred site and also filled my being.

I spent some time exploring these sacred grounds on the following day with Victoria, a ranger and an archeo-astronomer for the area. I did a star dance in the grand kiva to reset the energy and replaced some stones. I stood on the altar and saw the place in my visions as it had been in ancient times with the tribal chief saying prayers to the stars. I could hear the voices of the ancestors and their songs. I could feel their dancing footsteps shifting me through dimensions of time and space.

My feet were bare as I sat on the altar rock and touched Mother Earth through her ancient temple. As I walked down the hill to the parking lot and back to reality, I could feel my footsteps walking and dancing in the footsteps of the ancients.
