Quetzalcoatl Dreams

This book was made possible by a grant from the universe, which ended my job. This generous gift of time left me free to write. If we allow it, the universe will help make all our dreams come true. If we look with eyes of wonder we will see the spark of magic that makes this happen. And if we walk our authentic path, the universe will sing to the rhythm of our feet.

This is a work of fiction, but it is based on the whisperings of those who dwell just beyond our range of seeing, beyond the veil. They show me pictures of the coming time, which I have translated into a story. This book is a continuation of Dance of the Jaguar. While it can be read alone, those who read the first book will find the familiar characters have returned.

This is a book about awakening to our truth and our power. Here is a short summary.

At a remote Mesoamerican site, a carving of the ancient deity Quetzalcoatl awakens from the stones of a pyramid. Quetzalcoatl is the feathered serpent of the wisdom traditions of the Americas, and there is only one person to see him as he stands up in his full splendor—Martha. She has come in search of ancient wisdom for a new age, but her studies with a jaguar shaman have not prepared her for what to do at this moment. She must follow her guidance and intuition. As her fellow students at the Ancient Wisdom School wait for her return, they are faced with unsettling developments of their own. Each of them holds a piece of the puzzle, but how all the pieces will fit together is a mystery. All that is known is what the prophecies say: when Quetzalcoatl returns, it is to dream a new earth into being.

This is Martha’s journey, as well as the journey of all of us, into the new world that we are creating. There is truth in this pages as we follow Martha on her adventure into a new time.

This novel was an International Book Awards winner.

Comments from readers:

After thoroughly enjoying your first book, I was highly anticipating her new one. Quetzalcoatl Dreams did not disappoint. I could not put it down. It is compelling and marvelously uplifting. Each page draws you in, not as a reader or even a viewer, but as a participant. I could literally feel the energy pass from the scenes on the pages through to my core. Quetzalcoatl Dreams shares keys to self-empowerment and spiritual transformation to assist each of us in our quest for purpose, joy, and connection. Thank you Terry!

You are such a wonderful storyteller! I already know, I’m going to want at least 16 more chapters! What FUN I am having with your book. Not knowing the ending of this one yet, I believe there should be VERY MANY MORE!

I love it!! I couldn’t put it down!

The Dance of the Jaguar was like drinking a fabulous drink through a straw. And Quetzalcoatl Dreams was like drinking a fabulous thick rich shake through a straw. I wanted to slurp it down fast but I just had to slow down and savor it. So I reread Dance and am rereading Q Dreams oh they are so yummy. Thanks for sharing these two works with all of us on the planet.

Well, I fully expect another writing award will be coming your way! I finished your book a few days ago, and I appreciated it immensely. I enjoyed the fine continuation of your first story, AND I paid close attention to your thoughts on how to best prepare for and live in the times that are upon us. Your books are a lovely way to teach.

I want to tell you how much I enjoyed reading your book Quetzalcoatl Dreams. I’m ready to enroll at the Ancient Wisdom School and learn to fly! Hopefully, you are working on your third of this series, so I can see what happens with Martha and Ned. Your books are a portal for me, as I totally escape from all things and travel with your characters on their life-affirming adventures. I feel as if I am now part of the New World and live with an open mind and heart. Thank you Terry for sharing your gifts!

Thank you so much for your sharing your wisdom and knowledge with us. It felt to me like the book and the shift that Martha & friends were going through is exactly what is happening now in my world.

Queztalcoatl Dreams excerpt:

Right now, we are awakening to our true nature. We are connecting to the mystery held deep within and discovering the dormant power we have never used. The seeds were planted long ago. Our destiny is here.

Aurora stared at the letter she had just received. It was written in Spanish, but she translated it without thought. The truth of the words went straight to her heart, like an arrow shot from an ancient bow that had squarely hit its mark. A shiver ran completely through her as she realized who had written it.

His name was Francisco Ix. Don Francisco, he was called. She had met him years ago in the small city of Taxco. He was a stranger, but he said he had been waiting for her. She had no idea what to think. Her experience at that time with the world of shamans was limited. But she had dreamed about a pair of silver earrings in Taxco, and he knew about the dream; indeed, he had dreamed it too.

She moved to the open window, where a slight breeze played in the jasmine, and inhaled deeply of its calming fragrance. “Our destiny is here,” she murmured, touching a white blossom. She had anticipated this moment; she had known it would come. Pulling herself back to the present, she returned to the letter that seemed to have floated into her hand a moment ago.

No one knows how the awakening will manifest. We have the indications, but not the answers. This is the time to begin to share what we have never said. We can no longer live in the land of our ancestors. The transition is before us, and we are sailing into it in this ship we all share, the beautiful planet we call home.

Looking out over the placid, aquamarine water of the swimming pool, she felt a wave of excitement move through her. Her destiny—indeed the destiny of everyone on the earth—hung in the balance. She had prepared as much as she could. There were still things to do, but perhaps her list would never be completed. It was time to honor her future by readying herself for change. She plucked a solitary jasmine flower. As she dropped it into a small bowl of water on her desk, she heard a splash in the pool.

Steven’s dive sloshed water on the concrete walkway. As he swam the length of the pool underwater, Aurora felt a tinge of trepidation. Their world, like the tranquil surface of the pool, was about to be disrupted in ways that no one fully understood.

But it was the last line of the letter that surprised Aurora the most. I am coming to talk to you about an important matter. As she placed the letter in her desk drawer for safekeeping, she wondered when he would arrive. He didn’t say. As a shaman, don Francisco lived outside the structure of traditional time. He came and went according to the unseen turnings of the great mystery.

His timing, however, was impeccable. The new session of the Ancient Wisdom School, which Aurora had founded several years earlier, was beginning this morning.
