Lucy Barna, Advanced Marconic Energy Practitioner and Certified Marconics Teacher, presents a discussion on the new wave of Ascension, happening now! Lucy explains how Marconics, a full-spectrum, multidimensional Ascension Energy modality, recalibrates the Holographic/ Light Body for the embodiment of 5D and higher! Learn how the body heals and repairs itself through Marconics, activates Higher Spiritual DNA, and brings all aspects of fragmented Self into Unification with Source, through the alignment of multi-dimensional holographic body templates.
“I’m a multi-faceted, multi-dimensional being of light who is continually expanding. I’ve dedicated my path to seeking and exploring the many layers of my truest self and my divine nature. Along that path, I discovered Marconic Energy, and knew in an instant this was the most direct access I’ve ever had to aspects of my Highest Self. Since childhood, I’ve tried just about every modality. They offered a taste, a connection to my knowing that I could never quite embody fully. Ultimately, I felt limited – limited in access to my Highest Self when I knew it was there, asking me to step forward and just trust. The moment I experienced Marconic Energy, it was truly a jolt back “home” – an instantaneous return to my Self, a return I had been seeking for decades. It was clear energy, MY energy, my Highest Self in its Highest Form. What was also clear was that I was meant to assist in offering this energy work to others.”

As someone who has always enjoyed doing many things, I have always done my best to maintain a balance between what was necessary for survival and what served no other purpose than to bring me joy and pleasure. The ultimate goal, of course, was to create a balance in which all that I did brought me that joy and pleasure. It is an ongoing process that is always open to change, and I’ve found that the process itself has its challenges and rewards.

Deanna is a fully transitioned transgender woman who came out in November 2011, announcing to the world that she could no longer live and be seen as a man. Born in 1949 and starting life in the 1950’s, she had no clue as to why she could never fit in with her peers of either gender. Not having a real understanding of why she was so different from the other boys, she struggled right up to her coming out in November 2011, trying to fathom why she was so different.
At puberty, she began cross-dressing in her bedroom at night, putting on women’s lingerie she had surreptitiously acquired from sources she has long since forgotten. She would practice this secret ritual through college and even through her marriage. Her beloved wife was battling terminal cancer in 2011 and 2012, and Deanna was living separately from her, due in part to Deanna’s mobility challenges during her convalescence from double hip replacement surgery in July 2011. Seeing an interview of Chaz Bono on the David Letterman Show, she began to see the possibility of having her lifelong fantasy fulfilled.
Her talk highlights some of the struggles she faced growing up as a transgender girl assigned male at birth.

Having grown up in a conservative Christian religion, I had never questioned why there were no female figures worshipped in my faith. All that changed for me when I discovered the Divine Feminine in earth-based religions as Mother Earth and other Goddesses. Also, Buddhism and Hinduism are filled with female deities.
My talk is of my own journey with the Divine Feminine of all cultures on our planet. But specifically I expand upon my journey with the Buddhist Goddess of Compassion and Mercy, Kuan Yin. I will also share how my recent journey with Guru Amritanandamayi has manifested in Santa Fe as I find myself on a new path, living in a Hindu ashram.
