Hi…. My name is not Earl,... no it’s Pete
aka Lumos….
I was not always the caring
spiritual “child of the universe” I am now.
No excuses, I made
some mistakes, nothing big, just little mistakes, part of my
learning process. If we are honest with ourselves, all of us have at some point.
My life has changed considerably; I have now learnt my lesson and am
working to redeem myself in my own eyes.
Rather than a list of
wrongs to undo I am working to help others who need help,
usually complete strangers. My advice and time I give free to
those who want it, as a drum circle facilitator I help create
and support drum circles, as a crystal healer I run workshops,
give advice and often a crystal free to those who I feel need it
but can’t or won’t buy it.....
I define myself as "an
Energy Junkie", that's why I enjoy playing with Crystals, Drums,
Fire
and Singing Bowls, etc.... we are all Energy Creatures, some
more so than others.....
 I enjoy working with and
helping those who realize they have a problem and need help,
admitting to your problem is not easy, I help them to see their
problem and help them overcome it.
Occasionally one of our
customers will come back and make a point of telling us for
example how since their child has put their chosen crystals
under their pillow they have had no bad dreams, this is a
wonderfully satisfying feeling that reminds me how great life
can be......
I am a
founding member of the Magick Earth Committee and regular
organiser of Magick Earth (MEF) Events in the upper North Island
As one of
those who encouraged Polli and Ed to create an alternative to
the NZ Pagan festival when it went into hibernation in 2004 I was happy to be
involved in the organisation of Magick Earth
Festivals, when it was decided to create a committee to oversea
this growing event I was very happy to become a part of it. One
of the things that makes Magick Earth different is that
different people are involved in organising events around the
country, anybody can be involved in this project, the different
teams help to minimise 'organiser burn out' and give each event
a different feel. I continue to organise these wonderful events
every year. With the founders closing down Magick Earth I have
been given their permission to continue running the events with
the same loving community feel and energy but a different name, it's now
called MEF.
I am a
member of the Kiwiburn 'Excom' organising committee
My first
Kiwiburn
was 2008 and I immediately found myself at home, this was a
festival that is based on many of the same ideas I live my life
by, I spent a lot of time creating a photo log of life on the
paddock and have continued this each year. In 2009 I took over the job of Pirate Captain,
bringing the Pirate ship back to life and adding a small
outboard motor so we could venture out into the lake. I also
supplied drums and ran drum workshops with Chewy. By the 2010 event I had joined
the Excom as well as doing shifts as a Black Sheep Wrangler
(our Rangers), MUDFOP (Mug Under Pressure, Finger On Pulse, our event superintendent), and again reviving the
Pirate ship. In 2011 I created a small 'Pagan Theme Camp', built
a bigger and better replacement pirate ship (after most of it
was stolen) and enhanced the lakefront with some shade space. I have plans to be even further involved
in this my favourite festival.
I am one of
the 4 Regional Representatives for Burning Man here in NZ
After meeting
Maid Marian and Megs (key players at BM inc) at Kiwiburn 2010 I
put my hand up when the call for people to help out Yonderman in
his role as the NZ regional rep, spreading the Burning Man word. I
had already been doing this in an unofficial role but this gave
me access to people, ideas and information to make the
job easier.
Witches and Me
The Early Witch was a healer who lived in the village and used
herbs/oils and other natural energies to help heal.... that's me
also.... They can be male or female, I have many friends who are
witches and they are lovely people who like me work to help
others...
Like many I follow the 'Law of three', 'What you give out
you receive back 3 fold'......
I find this also fits well with the 'Pay it Forward' idea that I
also follow, Make an effort to help complete strangers with no
thought of repayment in any form from them, and encourage them
to help other complete strangers..... and the universe will 'See
you right'.
This has given me amazing events in my life as the Universe paid
me back for helping people I have come across all over the
world, often while just standing next to them in a queue
Me and Druids
 To
me Druids
were the Original 'Tree Huggers', they can be male or female and
they work with Natures energies, if you have ever stood/sat
beside a tree or rock formation and quietly soaked in that
awesome energy given off by it then I believe you have some
Druid in you....... and that's me also...... I have friends who are
Druids and they are lovely people who like me work to help
others...
The Druid was also a story teller of old and who here doesn't
enjoy a well told story, the story often had a message behind it
as that was, and still is a great way to get your message thru to
the young and not so young...
