APRIL
On April 2, 2026, I learned for the very first time that Wilmington, Greenfield Lake, and the Sacred Tree sat on the Serpent Lei Line and the Magnetic Grid Line, which were part of something I had never heard of before, the Pilot Mountain Wheel.
I thought back to the 1980s when I worked for Piedmont Airlines and lived in Winston-Salem, NC. I visited Pilot Mountain often. It was my go-to place for hikes and spending quality time in nature.
Then, in 2005, after living in Washington, DC, for nine years, I drove through Moundsville, West Virginia, on my journey west. Moundsville was also on the Pilot Mountain Wheel.
Then in 2010, I returned to Pilot Mountain, North Carolina, on Day 58 of 72 Days of God, and Washington, DC, during my visit to The Awakening sculpture on Day 69.
And lastly, the out-of-body experience or dream on September 7, 2016, during The Ninth of Av, that reconnected me with the Winston-Salem, High Point, Pilot Mountain area.
The Dream From September 7, 2016: I knew I was somewhere above the earth, and with people or beings I had never met. I felt very much at home and at peace. There was this one being that I had a powerful heart connection with. It was a male figure, and he had dark hair. We sat across from each other, staring into each other’s eyes, and I could feel this incredible wave of pure love wash over me, a depth of love that I had never experienced before. This feeling went on for a while, and it felt like he was transferring some energy to me the entire time.
Once complete, he asked me, “Are you ready to return?” And I said, “Yes, but can you come with me?” And as soon as I said those words, I reached out and rubbed his forearm. He looked at me, removed my hand from his arm, and said, “No, I can’t go with you, but we will see each other again. Look for me! You will recognize me.” And just as he removed my hand from his arm, I began fading into nothingness. My body began dissolving into small pieces of shimmering Light, and I could feel myself slowly fading away as I looked deep into his eyes.
Suddenly, I found myself traveling down this long tunnel, or what appeared to be the inside of a swirling vortex. A few moments later, I exited the tunnel over High Point, North Carolina. I’m not sure how I knew it was High Point, but I knew without a shadow of a doubt. As I approached Earth, I continued to glide through the air until I came to a clearing in a vast forest. I could feel myself descending towards the ground. And just as I was about to land, my consciousness returned to my body, which was lying in my bed in Phoenix, Arizona. I woke up saying to myself, “Oh my god! Oh my god! Oh my god!“
I had been doing work on the Pilot Mountain Wheel for decades.
Pilot Mountain, known to indigenous peoples as Jomeokee (“Great Guide” or “Pilot”), represents a sacred, protective, and navigational landmark in North Carolina. As a monadnock rising alone, it is viewed as a “sentinel” bridging the earthly and spiritual realms, often associated with guiding people to “their place” of peace and providing a connection to the stars and the divine.
Key Spiritual and Cultural Meanings:
The Great Guide (Jomeokee): The Saura Indians and other indigenous peoples used the distinct quartzite peak as a beacon for navigation, trade routes, and finding their way home.
Celestial Connection: Legend links the mountain to the “Star Man,” a guiding figure from the heavens, marking the mountain as a point of contact between Earth and the cosmos.
A “Sentinel” of Peace: The peak serves as a protective guardian, often seen as a place of refuge where, according to lore, one can find a “place of peace”.
Sacred Pillar: Its unique, solitary shape is seen as a “pillar” connecting the earth to the sky.
Transformation & Grounding: Modern spiritual interpretations suggest the mountain acts as a powerful energetic site for grounding oneself while expanding consciousness, often described as a “gift of God” or a site for inner peace.
Pyramid Symbolism: During the equinox, the mountain casts a notable pyramid-shaped shadow, adding to its mystique as a focal point of cosmic energy.
The Serpent Mound, resembling the shape of a large penis, however, was now trying to get my attention. It begged the question: Was this the meaning behind all of the sexual dreams six months earlier, and was all of this somehow related to the three MUST-SEE videos mentioned in February and March?
The Great Serpent Mound in Ohio is a 1,300-foot-long prehistoric effigy representing a massive serpent, holding deep spiritual significance as a place of worship, ritual, and cosmic alignment. Built by indigenous cultures, it likely represents a sacred guardian, symbol of renewal, fertility, or a guide to spiritual enlightenment, featuring seven coils often interpreted as spiritual stages.
Key Spiritual and Cultural Meanings:
Spiritual Transformation: The seven curves are viewed by some traditions as “seven gates” or steps that must be passed to achieve enlightenment or become a healer.
Renewal and Life Force: The serpent, often paired with the cosmic egg, represents a potent symbol of transformation, life-giving power, and connection to the underworld or water spirits.
Celestial Alignment & Cosmology: The mound aligns with celestial events such as the equinoxes and solstices, with its head pointing to the summer solstice sunset, connecting the earth with the heavens and the cosmic calendar.
Ancient Mythological Figures: The mound likely depicts stories of a “Great Serpent” or, according to some narratives, the union of the serpent with the first woman.
Connection to Earth Energy: Many visitors and researchers associate the site with “ley lines,” representing a nexus of healing energy between the earth and the cosmos.
Scholars generally believe it was a place of worship or a ceremonial site rather than a burial mound, designed for rituals linked to astronomical phenomena.
Returning to the present day, I embarked on my next ride around Greenfield Lake on Friday, April 3, 2026.
The azaleas were in full bloom. Azaleas spiritually symbolize temperance, passion, femininity, and care for loved ones. Often associated with abundance and refinement, they represent a “wish for love that never dies” and are used to convey delicate romance or to encourage self-care. Their vibrant, fleeting blooms also evoke themes of beauty and change.
I spent the next several rides around the lake connecting with nature, visiting the Sacred Tree, and at night, browsing YouTube. That’s when I discovered the three MUST-SEE videos, which I went back and added to February and March. It was interesting how the videos fell into place quite perfectly.
On the evening of April 14, 2026, I watched all of the Madonna shows that I attended between 2001 and 2016 on YouTube. There were so many good performances. It was fun strolling down memory lane, thinking back to where I was on my journey during each show.
On April 15, Madonna announced July 3, 2026, as the release date for her next album, which was near the end of my Judgement year.
On the morning of April 16, I dreamt I was struck by lightning while standing in a strange living room. I could distinctly recall wondering whether or not I would live. To see lightning in your dream signifies sudden awareness, insight, spiritual revelation, truth, and purification. Alternatively, lightning implies a shocking turn of events. There are many forces governing your life that may be beyond your control and even destructive. To dream that you are struck by lightning symbolizes irreversible changes occurring in your life. You are undergoing a permanent transformation. To dream that you are in the living room represents the image you portray to others and the way you go about your life. It is representative of your basic beliefs about yourself. Alternatively, the living room represents your freedom and space. The living room is a symbolic boundary between your personal self and your public self. And when I looked outside, I noticed it was raining, the sun was shining, and I had left my bicycle outside the night before. To dream that you are watching the rain from a window indicates that spiritual ideas and insights are being brought to your awareness. It may also symbolize fortune and love.
At approximately 3:00 AM on April 18, 2026, Madonna posted the first single from that album, Confessions On A Dance Floor: Part II. The name of the track was, I Feel So Free. The following screenshot was taken from the official visualizer video at the 03:15:22 minute mark. (Click on the following image to watch the video.)
As I listened to the lyrics, Thanks for coming. Sometimes I… like to just hide in the shadows. Create a new Persona. A different identity. I can be whoever I wanna be. Create a new Persona. Honestly, I wish I could be like other people. And just not care. I thought about the fact that my story, although fully accessible to the public for over twenty years, had been hiding in the shadows and, over time, had created a persona I never discussed with any of my family or friends. They were aware of the story, knew how to find it, but as far as I knew, had never taken the time to read it in its entirety. It was never discussed or brought up in conversation. My Sun residing in my 12th house of astrology, under the sign of Cancer, I never made a point of mentioning, promoting, or bringing it to anyone’s attention. And so it sat here in the shadows.
And then this song comes along, extending an invitation to rejoin Madonna on the dance floor, the place where I joined her at the beginning of my story. This new invitation stated that I couldn’t turn my living room into a dance floor like before – It’s dangerous with just one person. That’s not a nice feeling. But out here on the dance floor…. I feel so free. I can’t explain. On the dance floor…. I feel so free. My only option was to go to a club. Suddenly, I missed living in a large city with access to great nightclubs. And the lyrics Been so lonely I can’t take any more resonated very deeply. I wasn’t sure if it was my age or the town that I lived in, but I was very lonely at times. A crowded dance floor sounded like the perfect remedy.
Oh, by the way, it all started like this!
Later that day, I watched video footage of Madonna performing with Sabrina Carpenter at Coachella. Midway through their performance, Madonna spoke about astrology and sang a small snippet of Get Together. (Click here for the video short.) That stuck out to me for obvious reasons. It reminded me of when she held up 1 and 2 fingers at the Maluma concert back in May 2022. In my mind, the numbers 1 (The Magician) and 2 (The High Priestess) represented Madonna and me. (Click on the following images to watch that performance.)
I had no other choice but to interpret these subtle messages as inspiration to keep going. And so I did.
