    Not to be a nit-pick but, Steve Beckow doesn't actually channel exactly. He is known to sit in with channels and ask questions to Arch-Angel Michael via the channeler/medium thoughby to said ascended master.
    Well, although Steve Beckow is not an official channeler, he was the progenitor of the "black limousine galactic joyride", which did not materialize, and he agreed to go quietly into the night of obscurity, but it appears he has recovered quite nicely just like Blossom Goodchild did with her failed prognostications.

    Apparently nowadays, in the internet age of all things digital, it is okay to make predictions, move the goalposts, use "sources" as being accurate and credible, miss deadlines, make egregious statements, and generally lead people down the primrose path without any pomp and circumstance, and still remain credible.

    Interesting phenomenon to say the least, which makes me want to start a website, copy and paste a ton of glossy photo's with link attachments, and make presumptions and ask for donations, and then go out onto the seminar circuit. This working for a living is getting pretty old in the fiat debt system of slavery and I really need a new angle.

    That is quite deliberate to do that so a false standard as to what true intuition, true inner knowledge is presented and people will attempt to live up to that false standard instead of doing what is necessary to allow the real article to express.

    It is unfortunate but true that when Drake and Wilcock did their interview to let the world know of plans for arrests, they were made to sound like it would all happen in just a few days or so. Drake believed that too. He was since told -- maybe two months ago? -- that the arrests will be "one-by-one." That the strategy had changed.

    As disappointing as it was to hear that the mass arrest scenario was not going to play out, it was immediately apparent to me that the "one-by-one" approach was much saner and would not risk "freaking out" the populace in the way "mass arrests" would.

    No the bad guys are arresting all the bad guys to make room for the good guys who can't find their arse with both hands.

    People seem to perceive the banking cartels and the ptb in general as this vast wall of darkness united against the little guy personally.

    In actuality there is nothing control drama and power struggle within the structures of power, everyone scrambling for dominance.Families and bloodlines caught in ages old enimity, banking cartels all scrambling for the last buck, the edge, the means of getting to the top of the pyramid. While we have the potential to be quite a threat to them, in the more immediate moment, they are threatening each other.

    Arresting each other--not the same as meteing out justice.

    OK, for some reason and it could be just me but, this mass arrests or 100 arrests sounds absurd to me.

    Who is doing the arresting? Where are the arrested being im-prisoned? How can we document/prove these arrests? Can we interview the arrestors and the arrested?

    The 100 arrests listed above would surely have happened within the current corrupt system and it is implied that the bad guys are arresting the bad guys. How does that have any impact for change? It doesn't make any common sense to me about the corrupt announcing they are arresting these scapegoats.

    I was thinking all along the "mass arrests" were going to be accomplished by some super-natural group. Maybe I have been "away" too long?

    Can anyone explain to me the consensus Avalon working hypothesis for who is in charge of these mass arrests? I mean after 3,400 posts on this thread it must be clear who the arrestors are by now, right?

    Not to be a nit-pick but, Steve Beckow doesn't actually channel exactly. He is known to sit in with channels and ask questions to Arch-Angel Michael via the channeler/medium thoughby to said ascended master.
    Well, although Steve Beckow is not an official channeler, he was the progenitor of the "black limousine galactic joyride", which did not materialize, and he agreed to go quietly into the night of obscurity, but it appears he has recovered quite nicely just like Blossom Goodchild did with her failed prognostications.

    Apparently nowadays, in the internet age of all things digital, it is okay to make predictions, move the goalposts, use "sources" as being accurate and credible, miss deadlines, make egregious statements, and generally lead people down the primrose path without any pomp and circumstance, and still remain credible.

    Interesting phenomenon to say the least, which makes me want to start a website, copy and paste a ton of glossy photo's with link attachments, and make presumptions and ask for donations, and then go out onto the seminar circuit. This working for a living is getting pretty old in the fiat debt system of slavery and I really need a new angle.
    I was wondering if you had an agent yet? If not, I would be glad to represent you to numerous publishers of science fiction as well as to some talent scouts who can get you gigs writing screen plays. Let me know! justonenewageconnector

    The 100 arrests listed above would surely have happened within the current corrupt system and it is implied that the bad guys are arresting the bad guys. How does that have any impact for change? It doesn't make any common sense to me about the corrupt announcing they are arresting these scapegoats.

    I was thinking all along the "mass arrests" were going to be accomplished by some super-natural group. Maybe I have been "away" too long?

    Can anyone explain to me the consensus Avalon working hypothesis for who is in charge of these mass arrests? I mean after 3,400 posts on this thread it must be clear who the arrestors are by now, right?
    Let's look at the math -

    100 people in one month out of 7 billion is... .0000014% of humanity put on ice for awhile

    at this rate in one year we will have .0000171% out of the picture

    in five years that makes less than .0001%

    you have got to be kidding me if anyone thinks that this tiny % of humanity taken out of the picture will make any difference (much less when we consider the 10 wanna be scammers waiting to take each one's place).

    get real... please

    now back to our regular programming

    Not to be a nit-pick but, Steve Beckow doesn't actually channel exactly. He is known to sit in with channels and ask questions to Arch-Angel Michael via the channeler/medium thoughby to said ascended master.
    Well, although Steve Beckow is not an official channeler, he was the progenitor of the "black limousine galactic joyride", which did not materialize, and he agreed to go quietly into the night of obscurity, but it appears he has recovered quite nicely just like Blossom Goodchild did with her failed prognostications.

    Apparently nowadays, in the internet age of all things digital, it is okay to make predictions, move the goalposts, use "sources" as being accurate and credible, miss deadlines, make egregious statements, and generally lead people down the primrose path without any pomp and circumstance, and still remain credible.

    Interesting phenomenon to say the least, which makes me want to start a website, copy and paste a ton of glossy photo's with link attachments, and make presumptions and ask for donations, and then go out onto the seminar circuit. This working for a living is getting pretty old in the fiat debt system of slavery and I really need a new angle.

    Well, my inquiry has led me to ask the question: What is really going on behind the obvious drama we are being presented with here?

    The answer has something to do with the Moloch prophesy, the last pope, the ultimate pentagram, the last grand human sacrifice, and the New World Order agenda. I know, not quite as exciting as the Drake mass arrest phenomenon, but widely discussed in other threads, the ultimate theory has been postulated that the elite are leaving the planet and abandoning the experiment. The question still remains, do they intend to "reset" the population and do the grand ritual to Moloch for one more word from this god before they leave, in the hopes of salvaging the experiment? Why has Moloch abandoned the elite and been silent for at least 100 years, and why has the 800 year prophesy played out the abandonment of these elite?

    Every time I think I've gotten closer to the big picture, a whole new layer opens up.

    Uh, Moloch v Gaia would not make a good hypothesis, as Gaia and the energetic grid ley lines of Gaia have evolved into the energetic entity known as Pi. This energy has shifted from the Himalayas to Lake Titicaca and the location of the crystals from Atlantis, and the other aspects of the ancient knowledge hidden in South America, known as the divine feminine. It has been wrongly supposed that the entire preservation of the ancient knowledge was held in the monasteries high up in the Himalayas, and this is true to some extent, but the energy shift for the golden age is anchored in South America.

    You see, those who survived the deluge went both directions, some to Tibet and others to South America. It is now the unity of these two energies and ancient teachings which can now unify that which has been severed, labeled, judged, and made into archetypes to foster an agenda of patriarchal beliefs, anchored in Tibet. Now both polarities can be brought back into wholeness.

    So, my bet is on PI, with both Moloch and Gaia disintegrating as polarities and melding into unity.

    Well, I just want to move away from the "meme" that the final act play is a war between good and evil, with good being triumphant. To me, this is still part of a consciousness of separation and divisiveness, which severs and sequesters energies from the whole. My hypothesis would integrate these energies, by removing them from their current polarity we label evil, and unifying them into a new synthesis.

    We need to completely abandon the old archetypes, beliefs and pyramidal power structures in order to begin to see this vision for the future. It is the only energy which can overcome the cabal and break the patriarchal curse.

    That won't happen as long as people keep clinging to the current systems.... which are just replicas of the old system.

    Grip - you are On It Man! In fact, the Dragon guards the gate to South America in the form of Panama which, as we can see is a "baby dragon" with budding wings when rotated 90 degrees...

    Name:  Panama - Dragon.jpg

    And to add to Panama's significance is the fact that if you follow the Ley Line (Dragon Lines) that extends southwest from Stonehenge, it bisects Panama and that is why the Elite built the canal where they did as they wanted to interrupt the positive energy generation and isolate South America.

    Glad you are "in the know" and wish you would share which channel has been the most helpful for you in your journey through the maze of disinfo.

    Also, this is the real reason George H. W. Bush invaded Panama but perhaps I am going too far there as that information is not supposed to be released to the public yet.

    Getting back to seriousness - that's a great post and one which I agree with 100%. I am as certain as one can be what you just posted is the one and only way out of this global mess. Thanks Gripreaper... justone
