Here and Now...What's Happening?

Posted by Belle (here)
Saturday night went to the 80th birthday party of a man I've worked with for many years. I rarely go to parties, but this man is such a beautiful soul I couldn't stay away. If not for him and a couple of other people, I wish I had stayed away.

I had some unusual feelings of being among walking, talking zombies....like I was in color and everyone else was in black and white...or like they weren't fully there and I could walk right through them. I can't explain it....it was so very strange. Maybe the best way to put it was.... they were so deeply programmed it was like they were walking through this life totally unaware of each other or their surroundings. I mean, they conversed, but never really said anything...just empty words. And these were all people I've worked with on and off down through the years that I thought I knew fairly well.

I did socialize...I talked and played the piano for a bit...even sang a couple of songs, but it didn't feel right. Even the food tasted as tho' it had no life in it.

The more I try to process it and put it into words, the greater difficulty I'm having. Has anyone else ever had such an experience?

Have I ever? I have used the very same analogy of color and black and white. Stranger in a strange land is another. So people like us come to a forum like this and then refine it to this thread and finally feel among kindred spirits.

Living for half a year at a time in a holistic community not only helps me to feel comfortable it also allows me to experience a higher functioning society. It allows me to know that those who are not growing are choosing to do so. Like cleaning up after ourselves, some do and some don't. With similar ramifications. The rest of us are left with a mess we didn't make. And so it goes.

Prayer and Blessing for the Changes

Beloved Father/Mother God
That which I AM
That which is within
Come forth, come forth, come forth
Fully illuminate and fill my aura with your divine love, joy, bliss, wisdom and protection
Sever all psychic bonds, all karmic ties and send a thousand light beings down any of these connections to heal in the light of forgiveness any unresolved issues or unfinished business.
Teach them Love, the universal laws, how to manifest without trespass on others or in acts harmful to Earth.
May all go forward in Universal Peace, Brother/Sisterly Love, Individual Freedom and Prosperity for All.
SO BE IT.

Pass it on co-creators

This was given to me in deep meditation. It is a powerful prayer and blessing to be used individually and collectively. I take no credit or blame for its invocation.

hehe...Calz came here on foot, to deposit his prayer message, only to find it was already in place.
Benevolentcrow got there first.
It's called 'as the crow flies'....

No hair-pin bends through the rabbit hole.

If only all of us could have wings...

I'm seriously considering getting out of my kitten suit now.
Whatapity- all the eagle suits have been taken...
So how about this one then:

Yes indeed ulli ... I was going to post that here (and now). You are very perceptive.

As the crow flies indeed ... although days off time with the family had some bearing.

[and when you are a smurf ... walking in fresh one foot snow tends to slow you down as well]

Good thing I took the time to catch up with the thread first.

Like the feathered friend look


Perhaps I can get my co-creator juices flowing enough to "catch up".

So now Netune is in Pisces and we have entered a Water Dragon year.
Here is a watery card for our resident Dragons. Who else is a dragon, besides Modwiz and Carmody?

Happy Neptunian Dragon. This card was the most watery Dragon card I could come up with...

Until your dream of flying is realized I'll let you ride on the back of my neck.

Or would you rather be inside a pouch, dangling from my beak??

Here and now some thoughts:

The dynamic of my Winter working environment is very interesting. As a massage therapist I am an independent contractor. I show up, take my client into the room provided and take it from there. I bring my own space heater so that I can provide as warm a room as the client might want without asking management to give it to me. I bring my own music. I set the the environment to the best of my ability to provide the client with a safe and comfortable environment. Music and temperature can be modified at their request. Then there is me.

Conversations often happen. Some are very involved and some go in spurts. What is interesting in these exchanges is where differing realities meet. Whenever a comparison of realities ensues one thing is usually quickly apparent. I have invested far more time in examining and understanding my world than they have. Much of the information they have they got from TV and is only a few millimeters thick. A few scratches and it breaks through. I have every interest in my clients feeling comfortable with me, so the conversation drops off as soon as makes sense. I am then free to apply my skills to them as energy passes from my hands into them. This allows me to be in my sovereignty and power in almost every situation. They are too, which is as it should be.

Corporations are truly the sickest of all work environments. Their very structure is set up for illness. A body that has parts that cannot communicate with other parts, will surely be diseased.

Was this OK?

Interesting verbalization of that which I expect we all experience to varying degrees.

As to "walking, talking zombies" ... we must add "driving" to the list. Yesterday I pulled up in back of a car with the "custom or prestige" license plates where you pick your own unique combination of letters and numbers of ...

... you guessed it ... "ZOMBIE"

There is a lot I could say but, then I would be revealing things that shouldn't be revealed.

When I go into public places I wear polarized sun glasses (even at night), cover up -wear heavy clothing and braid my hair and sometimes wear earplugs & a hat. This helps with sensing or seeing "too much."

Sometimes hard for me to get the words out.

Everything and everyone has a vibration -a sound this helps me to not get lost in the words. I'm not a character letter creating words person either -never have been. I was around 9 yrs old when I realized that most people talk and write to communicate. I was about 5-6 when I learned to talk. Everyone thought I was retarded. -don't laugh Modwiz. I used sound and thought..... it freaked people out that I could read their minds so I stopped replying to what thoughts they threw out.

There are a lot of spirits coming here and a lot are raising up and out.....exponentially...

Yes Belle there are many many people, who don't get it and are holding very tightly to the illusion. People may do a lot of things we don't agree with, get angry, violent; keep imposing their reality on those who are shifting or do get it.... they think this reality is "real" -the ego is a precious thing to them. As Carmody said, things may have to come to an Orwellian critical point -en masse- to evoke a shift or change....to go beyond the current collective....

My own life is a very strange dichotomy.... I'm working on my ego and karmic life events, experiencing the earth shift through the cosmos and watching all of the different energies going to and fro.... and doing my best to take direction from Spirit. Grateful for this thread.

Love

Nora

we are all related

Blahdy blah blah blahdy blah. Hey there, hi there, ho there. Not to mention, ipso facto ad hominem and hummina hummina gobblety guk.


I think I got a piece of why our Village stays relatively consistent. Little or no drama. No 'food'. Interesting, eh?

I wanted to hide the first sentence from the posting tree.

In some homage to Nora,

We are all elated.

OK ??? All your contributions are OK...why are you asking?
You share from your being, like all Villagers. Everyone can benefit and hundreds of people come by every day to read what you have to say. Some might even consider quitting their corporate career after reading your post. Stepping into their freedom and learning to rely on the eternal provider.

I wanted to make sure lengthy inner musings were not too personally indulgent. Thanks for asking.

I'd tell you how much I love you, but Dan33 would just make some sh!t up again.

I just found this joke about congress:

A driver was stuck in a traffic jam on the Washington DC beltway. Nothing was moving. Suddenly, a man knocks on the window.
The driver rolls down the window and asks, “What’s going on?”
“Terrorists have kidnapped Congress, and they’re asking for a $100 million dollar ransom. Otherwise, they are going to douse them all in gasoline and set them on fire. We are going from car to car, collecting donations.”
“How much is everyone giving, on average?” the driver asks.
“About a gallon!”

Since we have had CME's as of recent and it is 'unusual weather', I thought of this tune, just right now.(I heard a song that probably has his bass work in it. 7 string fretless, IIRC)

I love his work. My son was conceived to it. A Windham Hill sampler.


A crappy skype picture. That smile can't be hidden. Makes me melt.

Yeah, and he'll want to inform my husband, using me as his courier. It will get complicated....

Nope not where I live ...

How would you like to chip the ice off this baby and make it to work on time Monday morning???


A man walks past an ice covered car on the frozen waterside promenade at Lake Geneva in Versoix, near Geneva, Switzerland, early Feb. 5. The death toll from the vicious cold snap across Europe has risen to more than 260, with the winter misery set to hit thousands of those seeking to escape it as air traffic was hit.
