In February 2003, Barbara Allys received the insight that each of the 118 Atomic Elements has a deeper meaning; each Element brings its own unique Personality-Gift and Healing Energies to humanity; and each Element’s Atomic Personality Patterns can be described in words (“Atomic Messages”) to help people more easily connect to and use these Personality-Gifts and Healing Energies in our daily lives.

(Note:   “Elements” can also refer to the “4 elements—Earth, Air, Fire, and Water.”   However, this website is not about those “4 elements.”   It is about the spiritual meanings of the 118 atomic elements which scientists arrange in the “Periodic Table of the Elements.”)

In order to bring these insights into the world, Barbara worked with a group of Boston-area psychics and energy healers to establish The Open Table Foundation (TOTF) (our original name--now changed to the Atomic Messages Foundation). Our goal was to communicate with the energetic patterns of each Atomic Element in order to understand and verbalize each Element’s unique Personality-Gift and Healing Energies for humanity.

Over the next few years, members of TOTF psychically tuned-in to and interviewed each Element; learned how each Element’s Atomic Personality Pattern is expressed in our human personalities; how we often express these personality characteristics in a distorted, or Imbalanced way; how the Elements’ Personality-Gifts and Lessons for humanity (Atomic Messages) can help us heal and transform ourselves and more fully develop our innate potentials; and how we can use these gifts for ourselves, or to help other people. TOTF also discovered how the Atomic Messages can give us spiritual guidance; help us interpret the deeper spiritual meanings of historical and current events; and have many other exciting applications.

As members of TOTF shared this new information through public presentations (such as at the Boston Theosophical Society and the American Society of Dowsers), we received enthusiastic responses to this work, and gained additional insights for how to use and present this material.

In 2014, we changed our name to the Atomic Messages Foundation, to more widely publicize the deeper meanings and Healing Energies of the 118 Atomic Elements, by developing educational programs, publications and other activities through which people can consciously interact with the Elements’ Personality-Gifts and Healing Energies. With the publication of our new book “The Atomic Messages of Peace, Love, and Healing” and the creation of our Element-Cards, the Atomic Messages Foundation now offers a variety of resources to make these wonderful energetic gifts available to you!
