Sorry Charlotte, but you've gotten hold of pure New Age fantasy here..... this is about 10% Hopi tradition warped by 90% lies invented by UFO nutcases & Antediluvian catastrophists.
I suggest you read Frank Water's classic "Book of the Hopi", it's NOT perfect, but at least he didn't invent much on his own (goes astray mostly on interpretations).
