Galactic Heritage Cards

The Galactic Heritage Cards were first introduced in Japan, where hundreds of Lyssa's students have since used them with profound results.

USING THE CARDS: The overall concept of the cards is to explore the journey from unity to fragmentation/polarity and back to reintegration. Since each of us is part of the same one consciousness, this is a holographic "journey" that unifies us all. The card system uses the holographic concept that we are experiencing both unity and separation simultaneously. The components of the cards explore this journey in a variety of ways, including:

SPECIES or STAR SYSTEM: Twenty-one different species or star systems are represented in the cards to symbolize the main archetypal groups who have influenced the development of our galactic family.

TIME STREAM or "SUIT": Four "suits," or time streams, are recognized -- past, present, future, and parallel. These time streams are not meant to imply time periods in a rigid way but instead refer to the "era" of evolution from which the energy of each card is derived.

THEME: Each card has a theme or lesson that is connected to the civilization it depicts. Contemplative text and deeper commentary are presented for each card to help users understand how to apply this wisdom in their current lives.

ARTWORK: The architect of these cards, the multidimensional consciousness Germane channeled through Lyssa, also assisted Hong Kong artist David Cow in the channeling of the images. Contemplating the artwork allows more information and energy to be transmitted that goes beyond the text for each card. The art works deeply with the subconscious and adds a powerful dimension to the user's inner work with the cards. In addition to the individual card art, an underlying image spans all the cards when they're laid out on a grid with 18 cards per row. This image represents our journey back to integration, and thus each card carries an embedded energy of unity even within the uniqueness and "separate journey" of each card. When the final card was channeled, the total number was 108 -- a sacred number in many traditions that reflects the idea of wholeness and completion.

GETTING STARTED: In the accompanying booklet we offer more information, the text and commentary for each card, and several recommended spreads to help you get started.

Lyssa Royal Holt holds a B.A. in psychology and is an internationally known channel and lecturer from Arizona. In 1979 she had a clear UFO sighting with her family that triggered a profound interest in extraterrestrial phenomenon. This experience led to a series of dreams in which she was told that she would be a channel. Lyssa studied channeling in depth in Los Angeles and developed her natural talents before beginning to channel publicly in 1985. Since then she has traveled worldwide, giving seminars and sacred site tours. She is the co-author of a number of books (published in many languages) including Visitors from Within, Preparing for Contact, and Millennium: Tools for the Coming Changes, as well as the Galactic Heritage Cards, a divination system of 108 cards. She has been seen on numerous national and international television shows, including the Discovery Channel. Though Lyssa often works with extraterrestrial information through her channeling, the practical application of her channeled information is of utmost priority to her. She is both a student and teacher of yoga as well. Currently, she lives in Arizona with her husband Ronald Holt. Her website is www.lyssaroyal.com.
