Moderator note

No active Second Sky protocols outside Second Sky Watch. Begin with grounding. Do not practise while distressed. Meridian is cited here as source material, not as endorsement — members may describe experiences, but not present personal impressions as Meridian-validated evidence.

Featured excerpt

"Janus Mudra is not a symbol you perform at the world. It is a way of holding the world at the solar plexus: Primary above, Counterplane below, the palms allowing opposed resonance without forcing contact."
