Hi, yes, thank you for taking my call. I've been listening for about six months now and I finally got up the nerve. My name's Denise. I'm calling from Taos. And I know how this is going to sound, I really do. But I communicate with people who live inside the Earth. Not metaphorically. Not spiritually. I mean actual beings, actual intelligences, living in caverns miles below the surface. And I talk to them using a crystal I found near Carlsbad back in 2019. I know that sounds strange. Just, before you think I'm crazy, I'm a retired geologist. Thirty-two years with the BLM. I know rocks. I know formations. I know what's supposed to be down there and what isn't. And I'm telling you, there's something down there that isn't in any textbook.
I found the crystal on a survey in early March of 2019. Near the caverns, not inside, we weren't authorized for interior work, but near one of the smaller entrances, the ones tourists don't see. It was just sitting there in the scrub, catching the afternoon light. Clear quartz, about the size of my thumb, with these inclusions inside that looked almost like circuitry. Little gold threads running through it. The moment I picked it up, I felt this warmth in my palm. This pulse. Like holding something alive. I brought it home that same evening. Didn't think much of it at first, just a nice specimen. But three nights later, I was alone in my study, holding it under my desk lamp, and I felt it start to vibrate. Gentle. Rhythmic. About twice per second. That's when I heard them. Not with my ears, somewhere behind my ears, in the space where thoughts form. A voice. Calm. Patient. Asking if I could hear them.
They call themselves the Keepers. They've been down there for thousands of years, maybe longer. They told me they were here before us, that they moved underground when the surface became inhospitable during some event they won't fully describe. An ice age, maybe. Or something worse. I talk to them maybe twice a week now. Always at night. I hold the crystal, I clear my mind, and I wait for that pulse to start. And then they're there. In my head. Answering questions, sometimes asking their own. I had the crystal tested at a lab in Albuquerque. The vibration frequency is exactly 7.83 hertz, the Schumann resonance, the Earth's own frequency. I can feel it pulsing in my hand, this steady rhythm. The technician said he'd never seen anything like it. Quartz doesn't do that. Nothing does that naturally.
