    6:55 am Costa Rica Independence Day from Spain. 190 years ago.
    Woke up later than usual and came straight to this thread to see what's happening.
    Thinking of how similar our domesticity feels all around the world,
    especially homes which are run by cats.
    As a write this one of my two cats walks in and jumps onto my bed followed by the kitten
    who appeared mysteriously in April four months after the old master cat had died.
    This kitty was so wild it took nearly one month to tame her.
    Now she controls everyone in sight and has taken over all the spots in the house
    which used to be occupied by the cat who died.
    He was 17 years old when he died and had been with me since I rescued him as a stray kitten.
    I am forever grateful to him as he helped me with my culture shock.

    I have had a strong compulsion to build a pyramid out of cardboard, taking the measurement of one base side and multiplying it by the golden ratio to make the diagonal. It's supposed to cause remarkable effects, one of which is to charge water to create a substance to cause profound healing effects.

    Sorry for the off topic post, I can't get off this screen to pm my friend, pickle. I thought he ought to hear that, and maybe somebody else out there should, too. I'm building mine out of mat board and packing tape. Non conductive materials are key. The smaller the pyramid, the longer you charge the water, I think. Pickle, don't lose hope, my mom *had* systemic lupus, which is a very aggressive auto immune disease that is usually controlled with powerful steroids and is genetically based and therefore treatable but not curable. Notice I said she *had* the disease.

    Pickle, I'm so sorry to hear about your Mum. (She sounds kinda like my Mom.) I am holding you and your Mum in a healing space. I know you will do her proud.

    EFT tapping technique works well when you are feeling overwhelmed with emotion. It's easy to learn, is free and you always have it available. I'm happy to help if you need assistance.

    All love,
    Marianne

    In my daily life I have a strong interaction with the PTB of the furry, feline kind. Illustrated by one in the lap, two in the chair across from me, one on the floor to my right and another in the chair curled up in that position that makes you want to disturb them. I can hear another crunching away on some of that high dollar cat food in the kitchen, and the fridge cuts on. The one in the lap insists that I can type this one handed.

    in order of age, the rulers of the world, in my reality are:

    Calliope

    Rama and Sita

    Vishnu, Lakshmi, Hanuman, and Ayonih

    Wild Thing

    and last but very not least my latest stray kitten adoptee now ruling the roost: Ishtar

    Emailing difficult client, how to say 'get a life' in polite business speak. Meh. Greed makes me mad. Wonder if he'll get the 'what goes around comes around' message.

    Found this post from you PurpleLama, and Junebug's too. Thanks to you both my friends. Goosebumps again.

    Was just thinking about a wacky dream from the weekend - 3 brothers and sisters (felt like) from somewhere out there, one not so clear to see, another tall, white hair, warm smile, oozed kindness. The other, blue skinned, cat-like hair and eyes, telling me off but nicely, we'll see each other soon. Keep getting a giggle from it.

    In wonder about this place. Ulli, what a great thread - thanks to you.

    Peace,

    Pyramid power...I studied astrology in 1979 sitting inside a pyramid
    made of 8 bamboo sticks, linked by copper tubes that had been welded together at the right angles.
    The thing is you dont even need the walls for it to work, just the frame.

    Sending energies to Pickle now, to give to his mum.

    Pickle, the person in your dream who is not clear could be the client you are currently e-mailing. The greed thing is about fear of poverty and want and perhaps the two other dream characters are your worldly self and your cosmic self, who with kindness help to wake the third one from his greed.
    I always say there are no coincidences and the fact that you placed both your email job as well as your dream in one single post must be seen as a sign. This is what this thread is about, the here and now brings together all that which was separated before, in one single spot.
    We are all journeying to that one place, where the One God resides and all dreams come true and are reality.

    Ulli, it just struck me... Wow....

    You saw the dreams I posted, where the dream woman is now my wife, well....

    When we first made contact over MySpace, her "name" was none other than:

    Here and Now

    I'd not paid close attention to your thread title, and then it hit me.... Wow!

    This round of synchronicity is on me, goosebumps enough for everyone!

    Yup, caught the goosebumps PL!

    Pickle, will be thinking of your mom today and sending love and healing. Wade's name came up in the thread and I remembered he had a friend with a severe illness. They were trying to get him this new treatment. Maybe you could find out about that? Just popped in my head - hope it helps.

    Well, did yoga. Neck feels somewhat better but still stiff - got a bit of headache. Released a lot of emotional charge in hips and upper thighs. If I was thinking I'd dwell on why...

    Gotta go for my lunch date with 42.

    Peace out!

    It's lunch time here... had thought to pop out to the health food store, but now I feel like staying in, as usual. The north wind blew in cool weather last night and I'm still in sandals and shirt sleeves.

    The IT guys installed a new computer for me while I was away yesterday. Nice to have a faster one, and the keyboard is great, good mouse ... but had to set up all my preferences again. But I'm getting over it.

    Had to get dressed up for a burial, husband's aunt died, in her nineties, so she must have felt it was time to go.
    Dear Gladys, I will pray for your soul.

    My husband has at least fifty first cousins, between father and mothers side,
    and this funeral will have hundreds of people attending
    most of who know who I am, but I don't remember half of them.

    As time goes by there will be more and more funerals.
    My granddad lived to 89, and his entire social life in the last 10 years was funerals,
    as he had to attend burials of family and friends.

    sitting here trying to find the thread where I spoke on the idea of being able to see through time, in the immediate sense.

    (Head rush from eating a quarter of the ultimate guy food: Pumpkin Pie. It isn't no ordinary sized Pie, either -it is a 2kg pie)

    I was going to include this link, and I still might, if I have the time to find thread. But in the meantime, I've got to run....


    Professor Solomon, author of the indispensable How To Find Lost Objects and a history of Coney Island, now introduces us to JW Dunne, an Irish aeronautical engineer who in 1927 published a curious essay titled "An Experiment With Time." The gist is that the past, present, and future are all happening simultaneously. But the core of the book is Dunne's description of a simple experiment he performed involving his dreams to test his theory. Interestingly, the book seems to have been quite influential, having been referenced by everyone from TS Eliot and Aldous Huxley to William S. Burroughs, Robert Heinlein, and CS Lewis. From Professor Solomon:

    Experimenttttt Dunne had been bewildered by a series of precognitive dreams. In one of them, he had dreamt of the eruption of a volcano on a French island and the death of 4000 islanders. When the newspaper arrived, it headlined the eruption of Mount Pelée on Martinique and a death-toll of 40,000. Seemingly, the horrifying dream had been prompted by his later reading of the newspaper account. Of his predictive dreams, this one was the most dramatic; but all were perplexing. They seemed to violate rules far more fundamental than those of contract bridge.

    His experiences led Dunne to make a study of the relationship between time and dreaming. He went to sleep each night with a notebook and pencil under his pillow. And in the morning he quickly recorded his dreams, before they faded from memory. When he compared their images with the occurrences in his daily life, Dunne made a startling discovery. Generally, a dream derived its imagery from vivid or unusual happenings within a space of 24 hours—24 hours in either direction.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/An_Experiment_with_Time

    Just finished reading Eckhart Tolle's book , 'the power of now', this morning.

    It makes no mistakes.

    Sitting in front of the computer. I smile. What a thread!. Simple and deep.
    7:55 pm. I hear Charlie Sheen in the next room.
    I ordered a Jack London book for my girlfriend's son, Hugo.
    I cooked.
    I washed clothes in the washer. It does not work. if I put the spin, she (her name is Limpita) pulls smoke.
    I read an article about Bud Schulberg.He discuss his collaboration with F. Scott Fitzgerald. "Few people survive to success."

    Ulli Thanks! That's not "Inception" in real time, it's Avalon in Real Time

Deep, muffled base guitar and drumming sounds coming from adjoining apartment. People talking beneath my window, not loud enough to be annoying. TV is turned off, a nice temperature, my right hand is aching as I type, half bottle of water waiting to be finished on my desk.

    I had lunch with 42.
    He is a very nice, sincere man.
    I hope he and I become friends and meet regularly.

    Ulie, earlier you mentioned doing a sun salutation. Thanks, for some reason I'd forgotten that one. Will try it tomorrow. It is a very good all-round exercise.

    You know what? I wonder how one of Bill's days looks like. It would be so cool for him to post here, just once - for fun.

    Smoking again, after lunch. I managed not to over eat in spite of the powerful subliminal that Carmody put out. I am feeling very reflective right now on how everything flows in the now.

    Last christmas we decided to help a friend in need, rather than exchange gifts, my wife and I. It may have even been the christmas before. Well, today, the money got returned, which was never expected. I am so broken, financially speaking, at the moment, thanks to a flood in my kitchen, that I can only say Wow Thanks. Synchronicity abounds more and more with observation, I am observing, now.

    I've just answer an e-mail from Liliane. She is an astrologer, traveling in Sweden. I had never talked to her. We are reading the same books. Synchronicity on demand.
    Hugo is bored (11 years old) and I've done a Tony Christie's imitation to him. Laughs a lot.
    Time to cook dinner.
    Later, Inés and me we'll see a movie. "Priest" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0822847/)
    Barcelona. Temperature: 23 degrees. Humidity: 63.

    The imitation is focused on the scene where Tony dances on the corridor.
