| Ashley White is a Senior Guide, Area Leader in Orlando, Florida, and Kabbalah Teacher Apprentice with the Modern Mystery School. I sat down with her to talk about Keys of the Ancients, the five-day program with Sovereign Ipsissimus Dave Lanyon, and why she believes it can change the course of a person’s path.
Jackie: Who is Keys of the Ancients for?
Ashley: Keys of the Ancients is for people who are seeking to work with the Master of Hermetics. They might not even know that’s what they’re seeking. Someone looking to study with a Master of Hermetics is someone who is deeply open and willing to learn from an authentic teacher, someone who can bring incredible clarity to their life so they can live the best life possible.
Jackie: How is that different from the work people do with a Guide?
Ashley: The Mystery School path in general is a path of Hermetics. When you work with a Guide or a Life Activation Practitioner, we’re all working with the Hermetic Ray to assist you. But depending on where we are on the path, each of us holds only a certain level of keys to support someone.
At Keys of the Ancients, you’re working with Sovereign Ipsissimus Dave, the keyholder of the Mystery School, who holds all of the keys. Your progression and your potential are magnified enormously by working with him directly.
Jackie: What does the person who’s ready for this look like?
Ashley: Someone who wants to work directly with Sovereign Ipsissimus Dave has usually already done a lot of work on themselves. They’re professionals in some way. They’ve had success in their life, but something is still missing. Maybe you’ve done all the workshops and all the seminars, or you’ve reached the top of your capacity in your career, and there’s still this question: there has to be more, right?
When you get to that place of “Okay, now what? I’ve done all of this and something is still missing,” it’s probably Keys of the Ancients you’re looking for, or at the very minimum, the lineage of King Salomon. That’s where the synthesis of all the worlds is. It’s where you’ll find God consciousness and come to understand what God consciousness actually is, so it can propel you into real understanding in every area of your life.
Sovereign Ipsissimus Dave is a master at helping you live a good life. So if you want to live a good life, come study at Keys of the Ancients.
Jackie: You hand down keys yourself in Empower Thyself. Is there a reason you’d recommend someone go to Keys of the Ancients rather than empower themselves with you as their Guide?
Ashley: I have the authority to hand down ten energetic keys, and these keys open what I like to call doors to heaven within oneself. You’re given the keys in Empower Thyself, and then you have to actively work with each key and open the door for that light to come into your life. It’s not that you’re simply given it and don’t have to do any work. You still have to do the work.
And one will get great benefit from working with any Guide. But someone who chooses Keys of the Ancients receives teachings, information and energy on a different scale. It takes an initiate about three to four years on their path to get there, and that’s if they’re walking fast. The information, clarity and keys you receive in five days at Keys is equivalent to about four years in the Mystery School.
Jackie: So it comes down to pace?
Ashley: It depends on how fast you want to climb the mountain. Are you someone who wants to hang out at base camp, look up at the mountain, talk about the mountain, maybe get some tools and practice a little? Or do you want to go straight to the top? If you want to go straight to the top, you do Keys of the Ancients.
It depends on the type of person you are and how you wish to experience your life. Some people are simply ready to work with a master, and working with a master is going to be challenging. It’s going to be hard, and it’s going to show you yourself in ways you’ve never seen before, because this level of light is only found at the top of the mountain. You have to be ready to be challenged.
If you are, and you like that kind of thing, and you’re someone who likes to go all in from the beginning, go to Keys. You’ll find an incredible amount of love, clarity, light and potential in yourself that you never knew you had. You learn how to create your greatest dreams in reality. You learn what true reality is and how to work with it, so you can enjoy this life to its fullest.
Jackie: You describe Keys as being for people ready for real intensity, but you also mentioned love. Where does love fit in?
Ashley: Who do we learn love from? Love comes from God, and love is God. If you want to know the good, you have to know God. And if you really want to know God, work with someone who has truly studied God, explored God and understands the intricacies of God, someone who has mastered life in order to be in service to God. You’re going to find a tremendous amount of love coming from that person, and that’s Sovereign Ipsissimus Dave.
Jackie: Is Keys of the Ancients only for initiates?
Ashley: No, it’s open to the public. Anyone can come and work with Sovereign Ipsissimus Dave and his team, receive the Adept Initiation and so much more. Hundreds more keys are handed down at Keys of the Ancients than in Empower Thyself, so you’re receiving a great many keys to help you begin to live a beautiful, masterful life.
Jackie: And for those who are already initiates?
Ashley: It’s also open to initiates, and one of the things I’ve seen is that it’s an opportunity to strengthen your foundation. Wherever there might be cracks, whether from your initial Empower Thyself class or from a lack of clarity that’s come up along the path, Sovereign Ipsissimus Dave goes back to the foundational teachings we all learn at the very beginning and fills those cracks with gold.
Your energetic structure is literally resealed in the light in a completely different way. So much more clarity comes in about the lineage, the path of light, why we do what we do, where we came from and how it all works. And your desire to go out and serve the light, for the light, and be the light grows in a way you can’t anticipate until you’ve been there.
Jackie: What happens in those five days that’s so different?
Ashley: Sovereign Ipsissimus Dave sees you in a way few people ever can, right down to where you’ve been getting stuck. You’re sitting in front of him for five days. He’s going to deliver the key you need, the one you’ve been missing, the one you’ve been stuck on. It’s the thing you need to move forward and do what you’re here to do. |
