An overview of Order Of The Twelve Mushrooms.

Introduction

Order Of The Twelve Mushrooms logo

“In the grass I discovered twelve mushrooms arranged in an arc between two trees. Upon further inspection and intuitive analysis I realized that the mushrooms were positioned and arranged in six groups which elegantly represented the stages of life. Together with the two trees they were between, the mushrooms gracefully represented the entire life-reincarnation cycle.”

“I later discovered a series of meaningful geometric connections… Amongst them include a set of internal psycho-spiritual States of Ascension that correspond to the outer Stages of the Mushroom Synchronicity.”

The Memphis Mushroom Synchronicity (MMS)

In the summer of 2017 I witnessed an incredible synchronistic phenomenon. On August 22 - a day after the β€œGreat American Eclipse” - I stopped by in Memphis, Tennessee on my way back from a road trip to see the totality. I was feeling irritable and drained from driving through civilization, so I decided to take a long break in nature.

I spontaneously explored a park right on the Mississippi River, where in the grass I discovered twelve mushrooms arranged in an arc between two trees [Figure i].

The arc shape by itself was not surprising. These mushrooms most likely made up a β€œfairy ring”, a typical growing pattern in mycelium fungal networks. However it was their orientations and relative positions which were special.

Upon further inspection and intuitive analysis I realized that the mushrooms were positioned and arranged in six groups which elegantly represented the stages of life. Together with the two trees they were between, the mushrooms gracefully represented the entire life-reincarnation cycle [Figure ii and iii].

As evidence of the significant nature of this discovery I made in the park, upon β€œconnecting the dots” I experienced an incredible feeling of rapture and ecstacy- a whole body-sensation characterized by numbness, tingling, crying and profound joy.

Connections to sacred geometry

To my delight, further study and meditation in the weeks that followed led to several very interesting theological discoveries linking this vision with archetypal patterns from many world spiritual traditions, particularly the Fruit of Life [Figure iv].

The Fruit of Life is significant in that it is derived from/derives many other symbols of Sacred Geometry, including Metatron’s Cube (shown above), the Flower of Life, Seed of Life and the Tree of Life. These shapes have been purported for centuries as metaphysical building blocks of creation. Their use across major religions and esoteric traditions throughout time suggests a common deeper knowledge of the origin and structure of our reality.

The Mushroom Vision overlaid onto the Fruit of Life illuminates several symmetries and complementary relationships between stages. These are gone over in detail in the free PDF Guidebook.

Framework of Connectedness: Geometric Correspondences

After the synchronistic Fruit of Life discovery I was convinced that geometry played a significant role in the form of the vision. I dove deeper into this and discovered a series of meaningful geometric and astrological connections that are summarized in the wheel and table below.

Amongst the discoveries include a set of internal psycho-spiritual States that correspond to the outer Stages of the Memphis Mushroom Synchronicity. The States and Stages are related in the Wheel and Table and are explored in more detail in the Oracle Card guidebook. The Stages and States make up the two sides of the oracle deck which you can purchase here!

About the creator - Ash Mystic

Ash Mystic portrait

Greetings, starseed! I am so excited that you are exploring this magical portal of nature wisdom I have curated. It is my deepest hope that the Order Of The Twelve Mushrooms deck and story fills you with as much peace, joy and wonder as it has for me.

The Memphis Mushroom Synchronicity was a major turning point in my spiritual awakening and journey through the Dark Night of the Soul. It was a reminder at just the right time that I am here for a reason and that I am loved by a divine intelligence. I aim to pass on that deep knowing to you: You are loved; You have a purpose in this life. Even if you don’t see it or feel it or believe it, please trust that it is there - beneath the surface waiting for you to remember…

There are many pathways to remembrance. I come from a very logical and skeptical background, so the keys to my spiritual awakening in my mid-20’s came through the exploration of sacred geometry, fractals and nature in a deep way. Now I am passionate about the integration of science with spirituality, logic with intuition, and the metaphysical with the physical. All is one; all is sacred.
