Hi there,

My name's Maya and I would like to tell you some more about Mayastar Academy of Natural Healing & Spiritual Development was founded in 2004 and over this time it has developed and grown with new many courses being added year on year (at present there are about 180 courses available. Almost 700 students worldwide have received tuition in over 1300 courses in this time! (currently 2009)  A great testament to the quality of Mayastar's courses I think you'll agree - so many students returning to take additional courses through Mayastar.

The ultimate purpose of Mayastar Academy is to enhance each students' life experience by facilitating their development spiritually so that they grow in confidence of their own abilities. In turn, it is hoped that through the skills they attain, they will in turn enhance the life experience of others - whether it be through healing, teaching, counselling or simply living as an example to inspire others!

Many people have wondered where the name 'Mayastar' came from...and the name came about before I checked into the meanings it might have and here's what I found!...

Maya is the name of one of the stars that make up the Pleiades (or Seven Sisters) –  and many people and Pleiadian light beings feel a close affinity to those of Maya in particular :-)

Maya is also a name from Greek mythology; Maya (or Maia) is a Greek goddess of Spring, Rebirth, Love and Life. The month of May was named after her.

Maya was also the mother of the God Hermes, who is the Greek god of intellect, inspiration, communication and acts as a messenger of the gods.  His symbol is the Caduceus - a winged staff entwined with two snakes that represent the dual creative forces. The Caduceus is a symbol of healing, peace and balance and is used nowadays as a symbol for homeopathic medicine.

Interestingly, Maya is also the name of a Hindu Goddess and the mother of Buddha.  Maya, the Hindu Goddess wore a necklace comprised of the seven colours of the rainbow; her association with the rainbow is in her capacity to remove illusions and expose the truth – the colours representing these various layers of illusion that ultimately will be removed to reveal the inner mystery.  An apt and highly congruent stroke of synchronicity at work there too!

From this little analysis, we hope you can get a feel of Mayastar and what it's about.  There is much synchronicity in the name that wasn't revealed until afterwards. And ultimately the hope is that Mayastar Academy will bring light, healing, inspiration, balance, love and life to all its students.

Mayastar would like to emphasize something here though: Mayastar is NOT religion or cult or anything like that. None of the courses taught are either. They are simply spiritual development systems and healing techniques. In that way, you should find that they don't 'clash' with any existing religious belief you hold.

If you consider the basic premise that there is one Universe – and most people think there's an intelligence behind it – some call it 'God' – some call it other things like 'Universal Life Force' or 'The Power that Moves the Universe' etc - but essentially, there is a Universal power that permeates all of creation...and we are part of that creation!

This is the energy we work with; the natural energy of the Universe. And each system works with a different 'facet' or unique vibration that forms part of that complete Universal Energy Spectrum. So we're not dealing with anything dodgy or dangerous here; it's simply facets of 'neutral' life force energy that we can be attuned to; the energy that everything in existence is made from; and that's what makes it feel so natural to work with :-)  In relation to this, you may be interested to read an article included on the site: THE SOURCE & THE MULTI-DIMENSIONAL NATURE OF THE UNIVERSE

On a soul-level, there is a perfection and completeness inherent in every person at some level that we rarely, if ever experience.  We often spend a lot of time trying to ‘see the good’ in others but neglecting to see the good in ourselves – and until we know what ‘good’ looks like, how can we recognize it in another?  The Mayastar philosophy emphasizes empowerment of the individual through recognition of the potential that every individual carries within them. 

If there's one thing you do today - just try to be true to yourself a little bit more.  Then do it again tomorrow...and so on.  You can't lose!  But don't mistake the ego for 'yourself' or you'll become unbearable!

I hope that through their work with Mayastar, my students will take a step closer to recognizing and expressing that inner ‘grace’ and realizing their potential.  And that in turn, through the joy and peace they ‘find’ (more accurately, 'remember'!) within, it is my hope that they will inspire others simply by living in a state of ‘congruence’; a state of harmony with 'The Power That Moves The Universe' where the truth of the inner spirit is freely expressed and manifested in day to day life.

I am ordained in the ULC and have a Doctorate of Divinity through them too.  If you are interested in Ordination, or feel called to ministry in The Light, you may want to look into the ULC ordination through Mayastar's special package, please follow this link...

Mayastar has to be registered as a business, but it is much more than that to me.  I take my role as a Lightworker and Spiritual Facilitator very seriously and it's my whole life; and a very fulfilling one at that!

And now a little personal information...as well as Mayastar Academy, I also run two additional businesses www.mayamagickal.net  and www.aurorahealingarts.net  

Through these I (combined with Mayastar) I am able to express and use all of the knowledge and experience I have gathered over the last 20 years I've spent working with spiritual development systems...from meditation...to Wicca...to shamanism...to Reiki...and beyond!
