Central Virginia IONS Community Group Program Title:

“A Book About You! Numerology: Ancient Wisdom for Our Modern World.”

Our July 15, 2017, Central Virginia IONS Community Group program will feature a talk by Shay Martin, Richmond-based Numerologist, Intuitive, Empath, Certified Reiki Healer, Certified Holistic Health Consultant and aspiring author.

Shay will explore the language of words and numbers and how they affect your life. She will share how numerology can help you understand the meaning of life, your purpose and how to achieve it. She will share this ancient science in a way that is easy to understand and use in our modern world.

Shay offers a Numerology Profile she designed herself that tells the story of who you are, what you are here to learn, and what your purpose is. Numerology is a tool that uses numbers to help us recognize, organize and read patterns of energy.

Everything that exists is simply energy, and there are three basic energies that unfold into nine dimensions. Once we understand the meaning of energy, we can organize what we perceive and read the patterns like a book.

All our technology is based on patterns of numbers and every day we are either working for numbers to put into our bank accounts or using numbers to buy the things we need to live.

Everything can be reduced numerically, including the letters in your name. The energy vibration of your name reveals your innate talents and skills, and the numbers of your date of birth determine the trajectory and circumstances of your life. Your name and date of birth each reduce to one number and these two numbers represent what you are here to learn to achieve your life purpose.

Join us as Shay shares practical knowledge and ancient wisdom that will make your life easier to understand, more meaningful and more fun. You will gain powerful insight into our modern world, learn what is out of balance and have access to the tools you need to enjoy a happy, successful life!

About Shay Martin, Our Richmond IONS Presenter:

Shay Martin has spent over ten years studying religion, philosophy, quantum physics, metaphysics, psychology, sociology, habits, the law of attraction, healing and physical health.

When she discovered Numerology, she was amazed how her name and date of birth confirmed that, although a creative and artistic person, she is meant to focus on gaining knowledge and wisdom and sharing it with others in this life. Numerology gave her clear insight to move forward with confidence for her mission to update the traditional Pythagorean method of Numerology for practical use in our modern world.

Shay has now spent more than five years developing a profile that makes life easier to understand, and gives insight into the purpose of every individual’s life and how to achieve it. You may visit her website at www.shaymartin.net.

Central VA IONS Group Meeting June 17, 2017

Featuring a talk by Artist Vandorn Hinnant, moderated by AnaMaria Walle

Where: River Road Church – Baptist, 8000 River Road (NW corner of River and Ridge Roads), Saturday,

Saturday, June 17, 2017, 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon, followed by potluck lunch at conclusion of program.

Central Virginia IONS Community Group Program Title:

“Sacred Geometry, Art and the Effects of Shapes on Consciousness.”

Our June 17, 2017, Central Virginia IONS Community Group program will feature a talk by artist Vandorn Hinnant, Durham, N.C. painter, sculptor, poet and educational consultant, moderated by his wife, AnaMaria Walle.

From an early age, Vandorn Hinnant consistently endeavored to translate his inner visions and other-dimensional experiences into something shareable with the world.

In 1989 he began his formal studies of Sacred Geometry under the tutelage of physicist and inventor Robert L. Powell, Sr., who became his mentor.

Since that fate-filled day, Vandorn Hinnant has developed a body of two and three-dimensional works of art, painting and sculpture, that some recognize as more than art. Many have encountered them and experienced transformative and expanded states of awareness.

Drawing inspiration from naturally occurring geometries and utilizing the Golden Ratio (also known as The Golden Proportion or Section), Vandorn Hinnant creates elegant compositions that embody fractal phenomenon. In doing so, he joins a long line of artists from Leonardo da Vinci to Salvador Dali who have used empirical methods to achieve aesthetic ends.

Vandorn Hinnant: Before We Knew

“Before We Knew: From The Mother of Everything” – Artwork by Vandorn Hinnant

AnaMaria Walle began her studies of metaphysics in 1973 and never stopped. She tracked down Vandorn when she saw an image of one of his works, entitled “Voice,” on a postcard while on the West Coast.

Her immediate response was, “I must meet whoever created this work of art.” Now together 15 years (married for 3), they continue to collaborate exploring inspirations they encounter in the realm of the metaphysical.

Join Vandorn and AnaMaria in conversation and entertaining questions posed by the audience as they share images of his work, creative explorations they have pursued such as pyramid power, meditation chambers and more!

About Artist Vandorn Hinnant, Our Richmond IONS Presenter:

Vandorn Hinnant received a BA in Art Design from North Carolina A&T State University in Greensboro, N.C., and studied sculpture at UNC-Greensboro. His works of art are in private collections in Africa, North America, and Europe, and in public collections across North America.

He is co-author (with Robert L. Powell Sr. and Jr.) of the book The Rest of Euclid. He has served as guest curator of exhibitions, as juror of many fine art competitions, and guest lectured at colleges and universities. He serves as an independent arts educational consultant working with both youth and adult learners.

Central VA IONS Community Group Meeting February 18, 2017

Featuring Robert Bushman, Ph.D.

Where: River Road Church – Baptist, 8000 River Road (NW corner of River and Ridge Roads)

When: Saturday, January 21, 2017, 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon, followed by potluck lunch at conclusion of program.

Central VA IONs Community Group Program Title:

“Exopolitics in the 21st Century and Beyond.”

Exopolitics is a relatively new term referring to our relationship to those outside our planet, that is, to extraterrestrials (“ETs”). It is formally defined by the Exopolitics Institute as “…an interdisciplinary scientific field, with its roots in the political sciences, that focuses on research, education and public policy with regard to the actors, institutions and processes associated with extraterrestrial life, as well as the wide range of implications this entails through public advocacy and newly emerging paradigms.”

Robert has studied exopolitics extensively for more than a decade, attended conferences and participated in study groups on the topic. He also has interviewed experiencers and contactees, and discovered a treasure trove of little known information he will share at this meeting.

His in-depth study of this subject has opened a window of insights into a broad spectrum of human concerns and aspirations, including noetics.

Robert will explore questions such as: Are we alone? What is the evidence we are not? Who is visiting us and how long have they been visiting? What are or have they been doing? What do they want? What are they like? What can exopolitics teach us about human history, identity and potential?

Does our government have dealings and/or agreements with ETs? Why does our government not tell us about it? What is the U.S. doing in space that they are not telling us about? Are ETs involved in our current global power structure? How reliable is information on exopolitics? What are we learning from ETs and how can we make personal contact with them? What is the outlook for the future? How can I learn more about this?

These questions and more will be addressed, and this is one program you won’t want to miss if you ever spent a moment wondering about these subjects.
