The Rodan Foundation's Publication for the Metaphysical Center of Enlightenment, February 2026
In 1981, Reverend Clarke Carraway founded The Rodan Foundation with the intention of creating a powerful, growing community of awakening beings who experience love, peace, prosperity, unity, healing, harmony, and revelation through learning and service. The Rodan Foundation, recognizing the Law of Cause and Effect, expresses gratitude for the many blessings it reaps from the community's experiences.
Welcome! Join with us in our dynamic weekly services where we discover our true purpose in an emerging world. Experience the revelation of our collective awakening to the power of love, the wonder of our multi-dimensional capacities, and the joy in reclaiming earth as our home. Sunday mornings provide the opportunity to celebrate life with like-minded beings and experience personal reassurance and empowerment through the spiritual messages of Reverend Carraway's mediumship. We look forward to your participation enhancing our community.
PHOENIX ALCHEMY: RISING FROM THE ASHES AS THE ILLUSION THAT KEPT HUMANITY SMALL BURNS AWAY
It is time to play with fire, again. There comes a moment, quiet, undeniable, sacred, when the soul whispers, Enough waiting. No more waiting to heal. No more waiting to be ready. No more waiting for permission, or for the world to calm down. This moment marks an unprecedented opportunity for humanity to leap in consciousness and burn away illusion.
With the Lunar Chinese New Year on February 17, 2026, we cross a powerful threshold, from a deep, slow, earthy year of the Snake into a fast, catalytic Year of the Fire Horse. The Snake stripped us. It shed old skins, pulled us inward, and asked us to release identities, relationships, beliefs, and time-lines that could not move forward.
Now the fire arrives, not to continue the shedding, but to purify. What burns becomes fuel. From the ashes of the past, the future is born. Your life has been an initiation, building strength, completing old stories, preparing you for your next flight.
Fire Horse Energy, Speed, Strength, Sovereignty - The yang Fire Horse does not hesitate. It bursts forward, decisive, powerful, alive. This is a year of momentum, clarity, courage, and embodiment. Structures that cannot hold truth will fall away. Illusions rooted in fear, lack, and judgment will collapse. What remains will be real, aligned, and alive. This year asks something essential of you. Stand strong in your own power and path. Embody peace regardless of what unfolds around you. Listen deeply, and live from the heart of your unique soul vision. The phoenix does not rise despite the fire. The phoenix rises because of it.
Across time, birds have symbolized Spirit, the bridge between worlds. The dove, eagle, hummingbird, and swan remind us of our innate spiritual nature. The phoenix carries the ancient teaching of resurrection: you are eternal, regenerative, and capable of rebirth at any moment.
The Illusion That Kept Humanity Small - We have been conditioned to live inside narrow definitions of right and wrong, lack and struggle. Culture, family, institutions, and belief systems taught us that power exists outside of us.
That illusion burns away now. Here is the core truth reemerging. You are the creator of your reality, and you are always speaking it into existence.
Words are spells. Thoughts are instructions. Emotions are solar fuel. The ancients called this alchemy. They encoded it into temples, calendars, myths, and mystery schools, not as stories, but as living technologies of consciousness. Nothing is being withheld from you. You are not waiting for anything. Everything is waiting for you.
The Sacred Mystic Arts, Now Required - The Fire Horse year requires focus, willingness, surrender, and mastery. This is why the ancient mystic arts return now, not as concepts, but as lived skills remembered through the soul.
Alchemy, transmuting pain into wisdom, fear into clarity, trauma into power. Telepathy, deep listening, heart-to-heart knowing, communion beyond words. Divination, reading energy, timing, symbols, and cycles, so you move with life. These are not external tools. They are inner powers, mastered through conscious use of three forces.
Word, what you speak into being. Thought, what you repeat and believe. Solar emotion, the fuel that powers creation. This is conscious creation. This is living from Spirit. This is your nature.
The Return of the Sacred Feminine - The Fire Horse accelerates the sacred feminine, not as gender, but as frequency. Intuition expands. Telepathic awareness sharpens. Vision clarifies. Multidimensional perception awakens. This is the priestess path returning, woven through the Maya, the Celts and Druids, and the Egyptian and Greek mystery schools. Different languages, one truth, pure power wrapped in love, prosperity born of coherence, grace available to all. This is not power over. It is power within.
Choose Resurrection - This year invites a clear choice. Continue recreating the past through unconscious words and beliefs, or use the fire to purify your inner world so the past no longer regenerates itself. Judgment, blame, and lack of consciousness cannot survive fire. They are not bad; they are a portal to power. Enter their wisdom, rise from the ashes. Phoenix alchemy resurrects not old identities, but true purpose, rooted in peace, expressed through joy, prosperity, and service.
Create a simple sacred fire or candle altar as a ritual of release, purification, and rebirth. This ceremony is an offering of gratitude for all that has been, including the darkness that protected your luminous soul seeds while they matured. Through fire, you consciously release what has completed its purpose, outdated identities, limiting beliefs, vows and agreements carried across life-times and family lines, old pain, programs, and attachments.
As the flames rise, you call in the Spirit of the Horse, a guide of freedom, strength, instinct, courage, grace, and focused power, to help you move forward with clarity and sovereignty. This ritual marks the transition into a new cycle where what is true ignites and what is false falls away.
The Fire Is Not Against You - This year will be fast, intense, and powerful. You cannot slow it, but you can ride it consciously. The Fire Horse burns illusion, purifies intention, and ignites the sacred flame you carry in your heart.
This is the year to remember. To reveal. To rise. Become the creator you came here to be; it is already done. Live from Spirit, it is your true happiness and prosperity. Let the phoenix waiting in your heart lead you through light.
A Closing Invitation - This is the year the priestess path reawakens, not as myth, but as embodied remembrance. Alchemy becomes conscious creation. Telepathy becomes natural heart listening. Divination becomes clarity in motion. Ancient lineages, Maya, Celtic, Egyptian, and Greek, converge into a modern path of power wrapped in love.
If you feel the recognition in your bones, trust it. That is not curiosity, it is memory. There are moments when transformation asks for immersion. Sacred mystery retreats have always offered this threshold, stepping out of the familiar world into a living field of ceremony and remembrance. When we gather across cultures and lineages, we anchor a global community in peace, love, grace, and joy, raising the frequency of the planet and opening the doorway to a new world rooted in harmony and heart.
