Riambel Vortex Experience
Under the guidance of the Beings of Light, Cathy Muller was instructed to uncover 14 energy vortexes around the world, the first of which was activated in Mauritius on 31 July 2007.
The role of these vortexes, unique in their vibrations and virtues, is to allow interactivity between the different dimensions, including our own.
This vortex is intended to heal thousands of people and those who have meditated there have been able to verify its energetic power. Mediators are on hand to advise and guide. We will be happy to welcome you there. You can also benefit from the virtues of the vortex by connecting to it remotely during your meditations and prayers.
