Death gave Birth to Almendras Blancas

August 8th 2025, the Lion’s Gate Portal. 



13 years ago, I was in hospital visiting my mother at her 67th and last birthday. 
Her dying and death was the beginning of a life changing experience in which I got overwhelmed with … joy. A joy that exploded in ecstasy. The closer she come to her passing over, the more connection I could feel between our souls. As if layer after layer of our egos was peeling off. When a mental connection with words was no longer possible, our true selves could finally meet in a field beyond space and time. 

 My parents had a big bakery. As my mother gave birth to me on December 17th -one week before the busiest 14 days of the year-, I was left in maternity and collected 2 weeks later. 
I took me years to realize that that’s where I grew an unconscious, perpetuating belief that I was not welcome, not worthy, not good enough … 
With her dying and letting go of the limiting norms of our society, I felt finally seen and accepted for who I truly was. My old, disempowering belief was about to crack. 

August 14th 2012, my mother stepped out of relative reality and woke up in the expansion of the absolute. And as she did, every cell of my body could feel it. My heart imploded and exploded at the same time. I was overwhelmed with grief and joy. I was ecstatic. And with it came an explosion of synchronicities. The world of the unseen started to unveil that I am (just as every other soul on this planet) a divine being. Whenever I had the courage to step out of my mind and surrender to the passion of my heart, the universe would deliver me circumstances in which I could experience what I needed on my path of evolution … .

 August 15th 2012, 24 hours after my mother died, I was in a session of Bodyflow. A white, almond shaped light opened up in front of me. A transparent, radiant, Jesus-like figure stepped out of this light and stepped into me. My chest opened up, my head fell backward and my body started to shake. As if it was being filled with pure, loving, divine energy. My ego and my body contracted and expanded at the same time until "I" finally surrendered. My body fell backward, knowing in full trust that someone would catch it.
 The expansion I experienced was from another world. The protective layers around my heart, were cracked. “I” had allowed my “defense mechanisms”, “my safety officers”, my “ego structure” to take a rest. Everything I thought I knew collapsed. For an eternal moment, I felt free from worldly nonsense, connected with the expansive, radiant vibration of source. 

The portal of the Mandorla, (or call it the Vesica Pisces, the Birth Channel, ... ) changed my life. My fear of death transformed, and with this came the invitation to let go of my fear of living. An invitation to live a full life, an authentic life, a life worth living. My survival mode slowly dissolved and bit by bit I learned to accept my birth right. 



Almendras Blancas Full Moon during Lion's Gate Portal

My experience of 13 years ago was the seed that gave me a rebirth. The chronic breathing, sleeping and focusing problem I had, disappeared. 
Synchronicities in life guided me to a magic place at the foot of the Sierra Nevada: Órgiva. At this moment I am a guardian of Almendras Blancas: 18,5 ha of high vibrational land with its own private source and with a big variety of trees, plants, wildlife. 
A safe haven where visitors truly reconnect with their higher selves, with the other, with nature and with “all that is”. We observe people come here and reclaim their physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health. Visitors describe it as “paradise”, “home” or “a place of miracles and wonders”. And this is in alignment with the experience we want to bring whoever feels the call: Almendras Blancas is the Mandorla, the Vesica Pisces, the Birth Channel, the portal to experience a higher, non physical presence. Even if it is just for a moment. 
For we know that once there’s a crack in someone's protective layers, the light is determined to find its way in …
