vortices and their energy as her invisible circulatory system. Just as we have blood that runs through our arteries and veins, Mother Earth relies on her own ‘blood’—this unseen energy. Without it, she would die.”
    “Interesting analogy,” Wes said, trying to grasp her concept.
    Diana pointed to the west. “I can feel something over in that direction.”
    “That’s Boynton Canyon.” Officer Thomas spoke up, trying to make amends for his faux pas. “They say there’s a vortex in that canyon, ma’am.”
    “Thank you, Officer.” Diana smiled over at Wes.
    “So you can feel them?” Wes was impressed at Diana’s ability to sense the presence of another vortex.
    “Yes, anyone who is sensitive can. Animals can. Insects and birds certainly do.”
    “Do you think Ruth Horner knew about the vortices? That she might have come here for that reason?”
    “I don’t know. If she was as psychic as you say she is, then I’m sure she felt them just as I now feel them.”
    “What do vortices do?”
    “Most release energy, but some have other special functions.”
    “Yeah,” the officer put in, eavesdropping on their conversation, “they say the one over on Bell Rock is a physical vortex that can heal you, and the one in Boynton Canyon brings back past-life memory recall.”
    “Exactly,” Diana said. She pointed to Wes. “In the Hindu religion, as well as many Far Eastern religions, they recognize that we humans also have an invisible energy ‘circulatory system,’ with major centers called chakras. They look like wheels with spokes in them, and they rotate. We have one on top of our head, one at our brow where the ‘third eye’ is located, one at our throat, our heart, our stomach, our abdomen and, finally, at the base of our tailbone. These chakras turn, like spinning propeller blades on an airplane, drawing in the invisible energy that surrounds us. The Hindus called it prana which is another word for life.”
    Scowling, Wes nodded. “Okay, so far so good. I follow what you’re saying.”
    Diana smiled a little and gestured with her hands. “ Prana is sucked up into our chakras by the spinning blades and then distributed throughout our aura, that electromagnetic eggshell that surrounds everything, including human beings. If the chakras are open and running, we are healthy. If they’re closed or blocked, we can get very sick.” She placed her fingertips against Wes’s chest. “When my mother hugged you, healing energy flowed to your closed heart chakra, and it flew open. The blades started to spin, and that’s why you can feel again. You aren’t numb any longer.”
    Wes gave her a strange look. “How did you know I felt emotionally numb?”
    “My mother taught us that when the heart chakra closes down and stops spinning, you are cut off from your feelings, Wes. When it’s open you can feel. Don’t look at me like that. What I’m telling you is the science of metaphysics—those things that exist beyond the reach of our naked eyes.”
    Ruminating over her explanation, Wes pondered her impassioned plea. “So these vortices—how are they connected with our chakras?”
    She smiled, pleased by his grasp of her information. “Vortices are Mother Earth’s chakras.” She held her hand about six inches away from Wes’s heart. “You see, each chakra spins, and as it spins, it creates a flow and releases energy. You can actually feel it in the palm of your hand if you’re sensitive enough.”
    Wes felt something. Although Diana’s hand was well away from his chest, he could feel heat radiating from it. “I feel warmth.”
    She smiled. “Yes.”
    “What’s going on?”
    “My hand is making contact with the energy being sent out from your heart chakra, that’s all. It’s a nice feeling, isn’t it?”
    He nodded, more than a little impressed, but not willing to believe all of it quite yet. “Do you think Ruth Horner was out here to investigate these vortices?”
    “I don’t know. Sedona
