SPIRITUAL SITES IN BIMINI. This page was created for those metaphysical minded people who are interested in Bimini as a healing and spiritual
center. Several books have been written about Bimini to prompt people from all over the world to visit the Island. The book Sacred Journey to Atlantis by Norma Milanovich touches on the Vortex at Bimini and how use this energy in healing of Mother Earth as well as discovering what your karmic role is in this lifetime. There are several books written about Edgar Cayce's trances where he keys in on Bimini, in particular Edgar Cayce on Atlantis. In his sessions he goes into detail about Bimini history 20,000 years ago. Listed below are some of the more important sites on and around Bimini. ATLANTEAN ROAD - BIMINI ROAD. These large
flat boulders lay in formation under the crystalline water near Bimini. As Edgar Cayce, the renowned profit, had predicted the stones were discovered in 1972 and have been attributed to Atlantean builders prior to 10,000 B.C. Were they part of a large pier, standing monoliths like Stonehenge, or mere bedrock? The controversy continues. A natural well of water enters into a
pool in this natural setting. The water contains significant amounts of lithium, sulfur, and alpha radiation. It has been called the healing hole by the local inhabitants. It is the only site to date that has been discovered of the many wells described by Cayce which have various healing qualities. His visions were of temples dedicated to each of the curative waters. In the 16th century Ponce DE Leon was requested by Queen Isabelle of Spain to go to Bimini to the fountain of youth and bring back some of the water. The Queen had heard of this water from her slave hand maidens captured in these islands. This fountain has been discovered and through
channeling activities has been termed the feminine energy with the lithium well being the masculine energy. In 1992 Dr. Norma Milanovich visited Bimini with 34 people. Norma was
channeled information about a vortex located 35 miles east of the island by the Master Kathumi. She was directed to go there with her group, locate the precise spot and meditate. Prayers for the healing of mother earth, peace for all man/woman kind and love of the population of this planet. The gift in return to all who partake in this quest with a good heart is to learn the knowledge of your chosen spiritual goal in this incarnation. Many seekers have also had buried memories of their times in Atlantis come to the surface.. Norma relayed all of this information in her book SACRED JOURNEY TO ATLANTIS by Athena Publishing. The master Kuthumi spoke of this site with instructions on finding it. It overlooks the azure water of the Gulf Stream. There is such tremendous energy at this location that some visitors have literally thrown themselves down on the ground, begun sobbing and had vivid memories of temples and priests in Atlantis. Located on the northern portion of Bimini is a vortex similar to the one in the water but much easier to visit.. This site was a gift during extensive
channeling sessions with Archangel Michael. Several rituals were suggested for assisting those who arrived on the island without the preliminary fasting and meditation that Norma and other groups have practiced. Some of the groups who have visited this vortex have noted that the water in this area had turned a golden color with aqua marine water surrounding it. The land vortex has been an excellent substitute for those who could not visit the water vortex because of the expense or the rough water at sea.
