Here and Now...What's Happening?

[modwiz]

Just noticed the stats for the Here and Now thread...can't believe my eyes.
We passed 150,000 views today.
It's growing beyond my wildest dreams.
Where is this heading?

I love it that more people are participating yet am also a bit worried
about losing the continuity of the conversations due to too many posts.

If this Village keeps growing any faster it will lose it's Village character,
and suddenly we have city lights, and a work hard- play hard atmosphere.

Should I change myself and open up to such a possibility becoming reality?
Inviting opinions.

Should? You should breathe. It's really good for your health. You may want to trust that the Village is healthy and that means its' immune system is operating very well. Keep your center and know "It's all good".

Just want to thank you for starting this thread. I so got tired of all of the ill-feelings that were posted elsewhere, people jumping ship etc. There is that friendly, helpful aspect of this thread that we all want to see PA get back to. That was what was a draw in the very beginning for me, then things seemed to go crazy. I having been circling in the air for awhile now and just now found a place to roost.

Ice storm cometh, (note to self keep iPhone charged)

Ummmmm...You do it by pm Calz....and give the Spanish Dan a BIG benefit of the doubt and Spanish-English cross translations...sometimes crossing a language bridge we can run into unknowing detonation of cross culture explosives : ) : ) : )

Haaa... You know, i've never been in a "plaza de toros". There are forbidden in Barcelona.

Take 2------ "Oh, my God, i can't believe.... it'sss John!!, the presenter from CNN News!"
Take 3------ The very first thing a bull watch before "attack" is:
if the torero has his penis turn on the left side, the bull waits.
if he has his penis turn to the right, the bull runs towards him.

Thanks Calz_ and Eaglespirit. :)

I know i'm a bit "swearing" all over. I've just went to the supermarket, chuckling all the way thinking in Calz_ and Eaglespirit. :) Thinking on the CNN, and other stories that came to my mind. This channel would not be the same for me.

Take-----4. John and Jenny making funny with jokes about farts. They farting instead of laughing. They have attached a little micro in their asses to catch every "laugh". Sennheiser was the brand.

here and now,
using the infrared lamp to get some relief.
Seemingly the only thing that helps at the moment.
Otherwise feeling very tired and off-key thru the 'jam'.
Actually had enough of it, long ago.

I thought the same thing this morning. Ulli spent one or two months
reading astrological charts, and now this huge thread.

I do not know. Wait and you'll see. I would like to see this question on Tarot, but i have not at home right now.

Do not worry by numbers, and of course, thank you for the thread.

[modwiz]

Congratulations to us for having such a well regarded thread. Nice place we have here.

try this one when you feel up to it. Put some table salt into a pillow case, maybe 1 cup or so.
Knot the end of the pillow case so the salt can't fall out.
Heat it in the microwave oven on high for about three minutes.
Put that bag on your pain, when it's nice and hot.
You don't want to burn yourself, of course.
Anyway, the tiny salt crystals radiate a heat wave that penetrates deeper into the tissue than a normal heat pad would.
Be careful, this thing becomes addictive...you could soon be treating it with more love and care than your cat, just because of the pain relief it gives.

You may need Vitamin B Complex in high doses now, to heal the nerve.

Rather interesting tidbit today.

I left a duffle bag full of belongings in NC, about 55 lbs worth...shipped back here by my friend by fedex .

Truck arrives at front of house a couple hours ago...I go out to carry the bag from the street.

Meet driver at the back of truck while he opens door, we introduce ourselves, I say I came to carry the bag as I know it is rather heavy.
So Dave says, "Thanks Dan, I'll get it"...he's about 6' 2" and in pretty good shape and throws it on his shoulder and says , "You know, I've been doing this kind of work for many years now,,,and you are the third person today that has come to the truck and offered help...I have NEVER had that happen before, never had one person offer never mind 3...isn't that something?!"
I go on to share that there are alot of 'changes' going on...ya know, 2012...we're right smack in the middle of it and I point to my heart.
He smiles...we have a few more words and when we shake hands at the front door I simply say the good is going to shine in people as never before and he says "That is what I'm feeling...time to be as good as we are able and help one another!"
Now, once again...I could not have invented this little script of a playout in the now any more wonderfully...
Interesting, Ain't It : ) : ) : )

Love your "spunk" (american term I believe).

As the designated Libra on duty ... I would venture to guess that what has been expressed by some is a *bit* more subtlety (caution) on ... ummm ... colorful language.

Doesn't bother most ... but we have to consider many people visit here and some are quite sensitive.

Comprende???

I actually feel ... umm ... foolish for saying this if modwiz can drop his drawers and instead of anyone objecting all the lovely ladies here give us their best look ...

always digressing I am.

Dan as clearly as I can communicate (short of using a language translator program) is that your intent and spirit is greatly appreciated here (and now) ... but perhaps a bit more candor, caution, carefullness, consideration etc regarding your words.

Not coming from me ... I am the (on duty) Libra mediator.

... and I love you all :wub::grouphug:

Please send me a PM if you wish to :)

Always happy to hear (and now) from my friendly villagers :thumb:

[eaglespirit]

Thank You, Calz...and Dan...we love You, man...just a translation thing.

I experienced the same thing when I was in Malta and lived and connected and helped some People, mainly from France.
The f word was used rather loosely when they spoke to me in broken english...it was unsettling and I had to let them know...and I'm a construction guy.
I simply said we do not use the word like that that often ...it was basically dis-coloring their delivery and they just didn't know.

I turned my back on Europe when I became bored by the decadence there.
My battle against the bourgeoisie ended during my twenties. Since then I am not focused on an enemy like hypocrisy, unless I discover it in myself.

I was searching for a different type of society; one where the sublime was appreciated, yet without the dogma of organized religion, or worse, the theocratic governments of Islam. Enforced religion is even more boring than it's permissive alternative.

Much of European cinema is still working hard at bringing down the towers of those ancient church institutions as a lot of people are still deeply immersed.
Only a small intellectual elite has been experimenting, in it's hope of discovering something that will replace the old doctrines.
The entire 20th century was about that, yet the best results came from those who trekked to the East to look for alternatives.
I happen to love the teachings of Gurdjieff and Osho.

[9eagle9]

I will go visit Europe when all the Europeans have moved on, then ;)

I've always been more interested in the village or farmer class of people there I have many friends and clients in Europe and save for one who a member of the former royal family of Spain (with a village mentality though) there are just plain folks. Of course excess has always fascinated me, as long as I get to be the observer. I don't mind it in small doses as long as I don't have to be involved in it. Or at least not involved in it very long.

Weirdly, excess energy depletes me. Being around excessive people who throw money at everything to fix it, drains me. Very weird.

I know people who spend a small fortune on magazine subscriptions they don't read that could feed a family of four for a week. I'm not sure why stuff like that irks me. I suppose if they were enjoying their magazines it wouldn't but its sorta like ....what is the point?

Thoughts of Safety Your Way, Nora!

[Marianne]

Nora, picturing you in safety and love... no worries.

I came home a little early today. On the way, I recalled I had a misty dream last night, of the village and all people here. Everything was misty, foggy. I seem to recall Neptune being associated with fog? It seemed important... wish I could remember it.

[PurpleLama]

My coworker had a dream that also involved mist, that calmed, that emanated from the earth after the crescent moon was seen to slip down rapidly below the horizon. Everyone was in the woods and wearing white, and with the mist's influence they all began to move together in the same direction. Hmmmm....

I can tell where Modwiz has been hanging out.
The competition at Ishtar has been pulling out all the stops, I see.
Understandable- this IS The Year AD 2012, after all.
When all of you brave knights return to the lovely maidens here in the Village
we'll put you all to work to build us a deep, protective moat and fill it to the brim with crocodiles.

I must admit people who know how to switch between the Great Inner Truth and the Great Outer Truth (GIT & GOT) are rather clever
I prefer working the Inner Truth, so I'll be sticking to my role as thread owner right Here and Now.
Call me a coward, I don't care.

Neptune is dreams, fog, mist, fragrances, whiffs, stuff that vanishes, glamour, illusion, inspiration, deception, fantasy, transcendence, elevated states of consciousness.....

Up at the Ranch just hit 100,000 views with only 50 pages (as opposed to 300+ here).

[/COLOR][/SIZE]


That's because this thread has become an interactive thread, while the thread you mentioned is an informative thread.
At first the idea was to give people a chance to talk about their 3D reality but it soon became filled with dialogue,
a development I actually welcomed.
It's all good.

Put Down the Gun is a video song about the times we now live in and are passing through. As MAN (the potentially unkind) evolve into Humanity ( the respectful, kind and non-imposing fruit of this Earth) then violence will naturally cease to be. The gun will be put down.

Hope you enjoy this little journey.

Just back from visiting my mom. Been neglecting her lately, sorry to say. She will need knee operations soon, and I hope to help her during recuperation. It's hard to get her to slow down, but I think knee operations will do it, during the healing phase.

Eating grapes for supper. Then going for a walk down the road ... it's so beautiful outdoors tonight! Clear sky, bright stars, and only a little cool. There's that pretty crescent moon too.

Dan, that's a great song... thanks.

We are expecting rain tomorrow.....this is good as long as the winds do not kick up and shift around -become variable. My cats have been driving me crazy....they finally settled in the window by the plants.

This in response to Modwiz video..... very good

Dialogue is good...... what i like so much about the Here and Now What's Happening?..... is that it calls forth and commands presence.

When we are not "present" then the dark ones and other unmentionables....and their cohorts will exert their power....ie our society or..... take peoples' spirits and souls.... and also help create a collective of fear/victim.... where everyone is in fear of not having the baser needs fulfilled. So now our motivation is driven by our low self and feeding only low self or basic needs or desires.

This is why aligning oneself and (being present) -the lower energies and higher energies with Spirit.... is critical to changing the current structures.

The clouds, mists, layers..... ask them what they are? or tell them to clear, remove or dissolve so that I may see/sense what is there or going on.

I found this video through the latest John Lash recorded talk. He played a part of it that was very powerful. I had not watched the whole thing when I posted it. Might be a tad strong, but the words are those of Les Visible, a writer who has a few blogs that I read when Rense links to them, so the material and thoughts are familiar to me. On his site there is a lot more back info that balances out the tone of this video.

This video has nothing to to with Ishtar. I don't even know if it is up there. Been here (and now) most of the day.

I had heard it before, but I realize now that I could not quite remember where.
I was sure it was something from an LS thread, which is why I thought immediately that the conversation was being continued over on his new forum.
I have had so many people pulling at me since the early nineties to become a holocaust denier...
also investigated all the background history of the Rothschild families' rise to power and grip over the financial scene of the world, Zionist lobby in DC, you name it.
To be coerced into a movement or taking a stance just because something is 100% true is just not my thing.
I have my own personal agenda, which is a blend of truth, transcendence, creativity; keeping my heart open with a focus on my maker, (who is NO WAY an Annunaki alien) and spreading my light and love, without being a part of the love and light agenda, if you know what I mean.
I do like John Lash...up to a point. He doesn't have to whole picture either. Who does?
The main thing is direction....

Getting ready to go into class.
Cleaning, clearing energies, calling in spirits.

Feeling pretty good despite dealing with some

I remember now that when I started doing classes or new age or shamanism, I went to an astrologer. We talk and .... when she asked me something, I do not remember now ... I felt like watching me from outside, my speech slowed, blank ... .... and suddenly I kept talking. Lost time ?... May be one minute. Even i had notice the strange lap, i did not tell her anything.
Then, we were friends for some time. Rita, that was her name, was Rosacrucian and Freemason. The course I attended was in a Masonic lodge for women.

It was like an hypnotic... in 2 seconds.

Have anyone feel a situation like this?

imho Ulli...we are each that 'movement' unto ourselves. That is why this thread has the life it has. There are Others around all around with this same demeanor it is just that a number of us have gathered here and it is a very good thing. It is a wonderful lesson that anyone and everyone can bring something of higher value to the table in these accelerating times of change. We help one another with our own flow and the whole flow...and it is this that helps the ebb and flow progress on a rising bell curve and strengthens the higher connections and we do not have to solve the puzzle...for we each are a puzzle piece and interlocking in a way that brings more 'glow' to the whole picture we are painting on an endless canvas.
That other stuff of 'follow the leader' and grab THE cause just ain't gonna cut it nooo more : )
Each One of Us are the Cause and the Effect!!!

A Freemason lodge for women would be an Order of the Eastern Star. They have a separate order. There are always breakaway movements of any establishment but Freemasons are a fraternal order as far as all official standing goes.

I skipped through almost all of it. I went there to read about the current monetary system revamping not read his opinions on history. Is was like he lost the plot and meandered off onto some strange path. If I find a link and am bored I might revisit it. The little I read was like eating mcdonalds.

There is a fair amount of theater and allegory in the rites. A mundane and/or misinformed reading of it is misleading. Ones opinions are valid, but they are just opinions.

I found this part: http://www.divinecosmos.com/start-here/davids-blog/1023-financial-tyranny?start=1

to be an interesting overview, revealing Freemason/Illuminati documents with enough links for a very thorough study. But, I am starting from a point of knowing very little about this subject.

I didn't know about the availability of the documents describing the rites of different degrees. Such as:

90: All Masons above the third, or Master’s degree, are sworn to keep inviolate the secrets of a brother, murder and treason excepted, up to the seventh, or Royal Arch degree.

In the oath of this degree the candidate… swears to keep all the secrets of a companion of this degree, murder and treason not excepted. All Masons of and above this degree are solemnly bound to do this….

After swearing to the same points contained in previously taken oaths, the kneeling candidate, with hands on the Holy Bible, proceeds: “I furthermore promise and swear, that I will aid and assist a companion Royal Arch Mason when engaged in any difficulty, and espouse his cause so far as to extricate him from the same, if within my power, whether he be right or wrong.”

And, on from here through other degrees to the highest religious rites of the Palladium.

I apologize if anyone feels this doesn't belong in this thread, but I noticed you were discussing Freemasons and I have been pondering the global financial situation. You are the only Mason I know that I am aware of.

I remember now that when I started doing classes or new age or shamanism, I went to an astrologer. We talk and .... when she asked me something, I do not remember now ... I felt like watching me from outside, my speech slowed, blank ... .... and suddenly I kept talking. Lost time ?... May be one minute. Even i had notice the strange lap, i did not tell her anything.
Then, we were friends for some time. Rita, that was her name, was Rosacrucian and Freemason. The course I attended was in a Masonic lodge for women.

It was like an hypnotic... in 2 seconds.

Have anyone feel a situation like this?

A Freemason lodge for women would be an Order of the Eastern Star. They have a separate order. There are always breakaway movements of any establishment but Freemasons are a fraternal order as far as all official standing goes.

Wow, but things do move quickly in the Village. So many posts now that it would take me an hour to go back & cut & paste quotes to thank everyone...been there done that :) I think I'm getting motion sickness from the speed lol.

Little bits of each and every message about my frustration is so appreciated. I absorbed them all, and I found every single one helpful. "Thanks" just seems inadequate.

I think I have figured a couple of things out. When eaglespirit says I'm already there, I think that means that it isn't me that needs to move, it's the cloud of unknowing that needs to be released. So, in that sense, I am. I get it when I look at it that way. And it helps me to relax the struggle. My struggle goes back to being. I need to be, not to act. It is also a matter of perspective, in that when you interact with a small group of people who "get it," and you work with them intimately, share with them very private situations and insights and struggles, it is easy to forget that the majority of humanity isn't even to this point yet. I'm certainly not in the forefront, but I know I'm on a different frequency than the people outside my windows. Also, it is extremely - there is not an adjective better, but I wish I could find one - extremely helpful to me that some of you have opened up about the beginnings of your journeys. I don't understand all the dynamics here, and I don't know what people are talking about sometimes...I still love it here and read the stuff anyway. Because I can feel the energy from the posts, and the love or the compassion. (Thanks for the roses-I adore them as well!!!)

Here and Now...the dang-dong debate between potential Republican candidates in running in the background. How much easier can they make it to see who is in the pockets of the elite? Eegads. Ridiculous and quite annoying.

Worrying about the solar flares, wishing I could bubble everyone at home so they don't go berzerk.

Apparently, I am still a sucker. If this is a lesson, I hope that will be clear and I will start saying no. But this young man has been beaten repeatedly emotionally and physically for the past 5 years. His parents have thrown him away. He has such good energy, which is almost nonexistent here. Hubby says his aura is a beautiful blue, sometimes pink. He's a good kid. I just couldn't tell if my misgivings were fear on my part, or the memory of the long-ago event, or my need to be alone. Any way I slice it, I cannot...just...not love him. And I can't leave him behind, honestly he would be dead before he could figure out the process of finding a job by himself. No parenting done there. I can't leave a lost soul who wants help. I suppose I could if he didn't want help, but he is such a sponge. Wish me luck.

Much Love,

oh-there is one other thing :) I think what I am seeing, or receiving, are little bits of information and they just don't make sense.......yet.

Just found out the Forestry Dept. is conducting a "controlled burn" to rid the area of dangerous potential fire hazards -suppose to last until tomorrow. The smoke is pluming through the valleys and visibility is about a half mile. There isn't any wind but it's cold tonight. So we are in the blue for now.

What do you think about Part 2 of Part 3 - the documentation of Masonic/Illuminati rites at various degrees in DW's article of last Friday? Accurate in your opinion? And, the Pallidium?

I skipped through almost all of it. I went there to read about the current monetary system revamping not read his opinions on history. Is was like he lost the plot and meandered off onto some strange path. If I find a link and am bored I might revisit it. The little I read was like eating mcdonalds.

I find this all distracting and just more conspiracy to titillate and confuse. I want to know about the the restructuring of the money system and he wants to talk about degrees that the majority of Masons will never rise to. The smear brush here is identical to the Jewish meme. Most Masons and Jews have no part in any conspiracies and go about their lives as common people. Master Masons are the sand on the beach to the few stones and driftwood that represent other degrees. Despite what one might say in an oath, it is just words and does not make one an accomplice to something one has never been privy to. Criminals are just that first and foremost. Whatever other details may fill in their personal lives is just color. Being a Royal Arch Mason is not more an indictment of conspiracy than a Jew being president of a company, large or small. Criminals are attracted to opportunities and seek them out. They may end up being higher level Masons or members of a specific religion, but it all boils down to criminality and not orders and/or faiths/tribes.

I smell misdirection by him. In light of his soiled underwear, I can understand and sympathize. I cannot take him seriously though.

If he decides to get back to the real story that seems to happening out of sight, I will be more than happy to read it.

You are so on the right track. You are showing signs that you "got it".
It's about just being. Not being impatient with oneself, but being there when a need arises.
It becomes harder of course when many different needs arise, as then you discover that you have to choose.
Make priorities. At this point you have to ask yourself what you REALLY want to be doing.
The important must give way to the most important.
Each one must decide for themselves what that is.
When you have made the right choice then you can start feeling better.
Your own feelings will give you that confirmation....
the sense of having a clean conscience.
Gurdjieff used to say: God is conscience.

I found it interesting to learn that Rothchilds 25 point Illuminati stategy of 1773 was made public due to the currier being struck by lightening and that it is so pertinent to our situation today:

Carr’s book alleges that Mayer Rothschild convened a meeting of twelve other wealthy men at his home in Frankfurt, Germany as of 1773 – back when his family still lived under the Green Shield in the ghetto.

From there, they created a 25-point strategy for Rothschild’s new group, “The Illuminati.”

Let's not forget that the higher degrees of Freemasonry had only been created in the late 1760s.


DIVINE INTERVENTION REVEALS THE PLAN

In a seeming act of Divine Intervention, lightning struck a courier who was riding to the meeting on horseback, carrying the full 25-point strategy in his inside jacket pocket. He was killed instantly.

The authorities went through all the courier’s belongings and were shocked to find this document. All 25 points are published, in full, on various websites, such as this one.

I'm not going to list all 25. You can read them at the above link. I have specifically chosen the most shocking and, I believe, important ones so you don't get distracted as you read it.

Remember – this is not a conspiracy theory; the seizure of this document was an established fact, causing extreme concern in the Bavarian government.

#1 Use violence and terrorism rather than academic discussions….

#4 Any and all means were justified, on the grounds that a moral code left a politician vulnerable….

#6 Remain invisible until the very moment when it has gained such strength that no cunning or force can undermine it….

#7 Use Mob Psychology to control the masses. "Without absolute despotism " one cannot rule efficiently

#8 Advocate the use of alcoholic liquors, drugs, moral corruption and all forms of vice, used systematically by "agenteurs" to corrupt the youth

#9 Seize property by any means and without hesitation, to secure submission and sovereignty.

#10 Foment wars, but direct the peace conferences so that neither of the combatants gain territory. They would be placed further in debt and therefore into our power.

#12 Choose candidates for public office who will be servile and obedient to our commands, so they may be readily used as PAWNS IN OUR GAME

#13 Use the Press for propaganda to control all outlets of public information, while remaining in the shadows, clear of blame

#14 Make the masses believe they had been the prey of criminals. Then restore order to appear as the saviors.

#15 Create financial panics; use hunger to subjugate the masses.

#16 Infiltrate Freemasonry… "When the hour strikes for our sovereign Lord of all the World to be crowned, these same hands will sweep away everything that might stand in his way."….

#18 a Reign of Terror is the most economical way to bring about speedy subjection.

#19 Masquerade as political, financial and economic advisers to carry out our mandates… without fear of exposing "the secret power behind national and international affairs."

#20 ULTIMATE WORLD GOVERNMENT is the goal. It will be necessary to establish huge monopolies, so even the largest fortunes… [will] go to the bottom together with the credit of their governments ON THE DAY AFTER THE GREAT POLITICAL SMASH."

#21 Economic War. Rob the Goyim of their landed properties and industries with a combination of high taxes and unfair competition.

#22 Make the Goyim destroy each other so there will only be the proletariat [poor] left in the world, with a few millionaires devoted to our cause, and sufficient police and soldiers to protect our interest.

#23 Call it THE NEW ORDER. Appoint a Dictator….

I have just read Modwiz' response and I will end my inquiry here. Perhaps we can think good thoughts and make this all go away.

Just came out of a Journey where, Louis had a classic dismemberment
initiation. He was stripped back to his bones and rebuilt into a much
stronger dog, with full power. He then sat up and looked at me,
his energy totally shining.

Very powerful, I'm still coming out of the trance.

Starving now too, lol.

[1inMany]

astrid, I'm so sorry to sound like an idiot here. But that sounds terribly painful. Do you mean...well, what do you mean exactly? Is Louis the 3d dog different somehow after your journey?

[astrid]

Not painful at all, im talking non- ordinary reality,
not 3D here, Its where us on the Shamanic path do our work.
The healings then translate into 3D . Everything is energy,
spirit, before it is matter, so it's in those realms we can
facilitate deep and profound healings.

And yes he will be different , the changes might not
happen straight away, but they will happen.
He now has his full power back again.

Oh my heavens! I want to do that! Wow! Well...I don't know what to say...congratulations? :)

Hi Cottage Rose...Wishing You Well : )

I feel most of us here know about all we need to know about them...those few that perpetrate madness.
It is said and done and revealed.

And it simply comes down to what 'we say and do, now'...each of us that have taken up 'our own cause' of bringing it all to a close and opening the doors of a new way of being...sovereign souls showing that it is no longer their way but it is now Our Way...helping each other move away from it all once and for all!

[ulli]

I had heard it before, but I realize now that I could not quite remember where.
I was sure it was something from an LS thread, which is why I thought immediately that the conversation was being continued over on his new forum.
I have had so many people pulling at me since the early nineties to become a holocaust denier...
also investigated all the background history of the Rothschild families' rise to power and grip over the financial scene of the world, Zionist lobby in DC, you name it.
To be coerced into a movement or taking a stance just because something is 100% true is just not my thing.
I have my own personal agenda, which is a blend of truth, transcendence, creativity; keeping my heart open with a focus on my maker, (who is NO WAY an Annunaki alien) and spreading my light and love, without being a part of the love and light agenda, if you know what I mean.
I do like John Lash...up to a point. He doesn't have to whole picture either. Who does?
The main thing is direction....

imho Ulli...we are each that 'movement' unto ourselves. That is why this thread has the life it has. There are Others around all around with this same demeanor it is just that a number of us have gathered here and it is a very good thing. It is a wonderful lesson that anyone and everyone can bring something of higher value to the table in these accelerating times of change. We help one another with our own flow and the whole flow...and it is this that helps the ebb and flow progress on a rising bell curve and strengthens the higher connections and we do not have to solve the puzzle...for we each are a puzzle piece and interlocking in a way that brings more 'glow' to the whole picture we are painting on an endless canvas.
That other stuff of 'follow the leader' and grab THE cause just ain't gonna cut it nooo more : )
Each One of Us are the Cause and the Effect!!!

Well said, eaglespirit.
Once we are aligned with the highest plan all we have to say is Be! and it is. And the highest plan is in no way in agreement with a tiny geopolitical elite enslaving souls whose destiny was to become sovereign beings.

O Son of Spirit
My first counsel is this: Possess a pure, kindly and radiant heart, that thine may be a sovereignty ancient, imperishable and everlasting.

Pondering the whole idea of what shadow work is, and how it would be beneficial. It sounds like taking a good, long look at yourself. Except, I don't know how it could ever be....complete. After all, we grow and develop every day, so who we see changes from day to day. That would mean....that who we see in the mirror changes every day...which sounds to me like just always trying to be the best you can. If you change every day, then even the memories you have will be seen from a different perspective. It's like watching the same movie repeatedly but seeing different things each time. Do you suppose, those of you who are focusing on that at this time, that shadow work is purging old negative paradigms, or present/past behaviors and/or emotions?

Much Love,

Oh, dear, did that make sense?

[astrid]

Totally blown away by today's class. words escape me .
3 Journeys in 2 hours, and mind blowing experiences.
In the last one i met up with a spirit teacher, that I'm going
to have to take some time to fully get my head around,
and that's an understatement. Seriously wow and pissed
off at the same time, and no i can't explain any more than that,

Hello 1inMany :)

I have a group on this forum dedicated to shadow work. I absolutely LOVE it and have found it to be truly amazing. I haven't been posting to this forum in quite a while, but lately have been feeling to pull to be more active here again, i have missed my Avalon family. :) Would you like me to add you to my group? I will share one of the posts here so you can get a feel for it.

So here is the basic philosophy about the shadow:

Let me paint a picture for you, imagine that a few years ago you broke your foot. It was very painful and so you took painkillers, wrapped it up, and over time it stopped hurting. Thinking that it was healed because you were no longer in pain, you started to walk around again and returned to your normal routine. A few years go by and you have now completely forgotten about your foot as ever being broken. One day a close friend comes over to give you a hug and accidentally steps right on the old wound in your foot. Screaming in pain you step back and yell at your friend, "how could you hurt me like that!" Your friend is baffled as they really didn’t intend on hurting you, they had only wanted to give you a hug. Neither of you had any awareness of the still broken bone in your foot, your friend didn’t know it was there, and you had totally forgotten about it.

In this analogy, the broken bone is the ‘shadow’. The shadow is any part of yourself that is wounded, fragmented, broken or hurt and then repressed, forgotten about or rejected in any way.

To put this in worldly terms your shadow is very much like your real shadow, it is there when the light can not get to it, and most of the time not thought about or given any attention to. Yet when you put it in direct light, it vanishes instantly. Anything in life that you feel separate from in anyway, is most likely a shadow aspect of yourself. The reintegration I have done is about merging with the totality of life and also reuniting with the aspects of life that i resist, avoid or deny.

In practical terms: when someone gets under your skin they are probably stepping on an old would that you have long forgotten about, and the person doing the stepping has no knowledge of your wound even being there.

The beauty about doing shadow or integration work is that it starts to become a good thing when someone rubs you the wrong way. I know that sounds a little odd, but for me this has become a reality and a way of being.

It’s just like when you try to look at your nose, you can’t see it no matter how hard you try until you look in a mirror. Shadows are the blind spots in our psyche, the aspects of our self that we have a hard time seeing, but other people can see. When a person in your life annoys or upsets you it can be a sign that they are revealing your shadow to you, when a person is acting in a way that triggers you, makes you irritated or upset, those are your golden moments to do integration work. These are the moments when the unconscious is rising up to the surface to be seen through with the light of awareness. The key to seeing clearly is willingness and self love. Being able to look closely at a shadow is not always easy, and often will be wrapped in feelings of shame or guilt; this is where the willingness to forgive yourself and love and accept the shadow aspect comes into play.


Here is the process:


Step 1: when someone does something that makes you react, triggers you, or brings up a response of anger or frustration look at that as the golden opportunity. Instead of looking at them as something to fix, educate or change, stop and investigate what YOU feel. This is key.

Step 2: see if you are projecting. In my example above, projection would have been ‘look what my son has done, he is such a bad kid.’ In doing that, I project an image onto the person so that I don’t have to own, feel, and accept what I am really feeling.

Step 3: don’t take it personally. To de-personalize what you feel gives the space to allow the feeling to be there open and revealed. This way the skeletons in the closet can be seen, exposed, and healed.

Step 4: allow, honor and embrace what you FEEL. Often in interpersonal disagreements, things get heated and aggressive because each person is in denial of what they feel. In addition to that each person wants to protect the strategies they have in place for dealing with their broken zones. Just like in the above example, I had a strategy in place for avoiding the feeling of ‘bad mom’ in coming up. My strategy was that my son simply had to be a good kid, all the time. Clearly this strategy wasn’t going to work forever, (and eventually I would see that,) but until I was ready to see that, I would fight tooth and nail to protect this strategy because it had become my life line.

Step 5: bring it all into conscious awareness. As soon as you are genuinely willing to see, embrace and allow your honest feelings to emerge, the light of awareness will shine on these qualities. Just like a real shadow, as soon as they are brought to the light of conscious awareness, they vanish instantly. These unconscious fear, beliefs, or tendencies just need to be seen for what they are. As soon as that happens, they stop being a problem.


The beauty of really doing this work with yourself is that you start to see other people in your life change. The biggest change I have seen is in my interpersonal relationships. I talk to people, relate to people and honor people now in a whole new way, because I do not see them as a threat. Being willing to reveal your own broken zones means your relationships and interactions with people change. I can attest to a huge huge difference in my relationship with my son. Because I am not projecting my fears onto him, and putting pressure on him to be a certain way, (so that I can avoid a feeling,) means he is free to be himself. And because I am not in avoidance or resistance to feeling something, I can actually be present to him, and honor who he really is. I can’t think of a better gift to offer someone than to simply allow them to be exactly as they are.

[eaglespirit]

[1inMany]

Oh my gosh. (Note to self-I use this phrase or variations of this phrase WAY too much...)

Okay. I have no idea how to say this or what it will sound like so I am going to just blurt it out. I've been doing shadow work for a long time and had no idea what it was. Oh. That wasn't so bad. Thank you Starsha for verbalizing this process so clearly. Without your words, I would have never been able to identify it. I am down to a few of those types of situations/people. I think it is going to be waaayyyyy coooooolll next time this certain person ruffles my feathers, because I can put the process to work!!!!! I can't believe it.

This is how stuff happens for me, really. I completely identify with - oh, shoot I can't remember who said it now - that I have to learn this language. I've known I am different, felt different, behaved differently than other people. When I read a systematic definition or process, and then put a name to that, and then see if that process with a name describes something I know or have gone through - MAJOR reassurance, light bulb moment, and relief!

Get out of town! In one day....I flipflopped. I'm gonna enjoy this ride because now I know how quickly it might flipflop back....YYIIPPPPPEEEEEEEE......

Much Love,

[Ernie Nemeth]

Hi Starsha, nice to see you here, and now.
Missed you too.

Started dreaming again. Took a nap and the dreams started. All chaotic. I saw the people controlling reality behind the scenes and when they saw me they turned their energies on me. I was tossed out of my dream, and woke up. Went back to sleep and the same thing again, and again. Restless sleep. Got aches and pains now for no reason. My calves hurt - for no reason I can determine. What could it mean? No idea, like most dreams I remember, they stir me up but leave me none the wiser. Will have to get used to it I guess. (update: Realized the problem is that for lunch I bought a meat patty. Asked for mild - got hot. Me and hot do not mix. Took pepto Bismol, which always bungs me up and I usually feel it in my calves if its bad enough.)

Had an avocado salad with homemade dressing using the most amazing olive oil I have ever tasted. Got the bottle from one of my customers a few months back. He said the oil came from Lebenon - 2000 year old trees, yummy. Bottle is now finished. Boo hoo. I wonder if I can ever find a similar tasting olive oil in all of Toronto - I have my doubts. And if there is I probably can't afford it. Makes other brands taste like, well I don't know - dregs from the bottle of the barrel, and not real olive oil.

What was all that about Jenny the CNN reporter? Totally went over my head.

Got my first review ever of one of my books. A few have read it but no one has ever had a comment - and I never asked for one. The comment: very convoluted, must have a rich fantasy life.
Oh well, such is life.

[astrid]

There you go, you had it sorted all along,
but just didn't realize it. Which is very much how it works.
Great work!!

See how a shift in perception changes EVERYTHING??

[1inMany]

Oh yeah! :)

[1inMany]

Hey Ernie, I'm curious. (Sorry that your sleep was fitful, that's the pits). Do you think you were really dreaming that stuff? Or do you think stuff that we eat can have an effect on the experiences during sleep at all? Did you feel like you were dreaming, like normal dreams?

we'll put you all to work to build us a deep, protective moat and fill it to the brim with crocodiles.

I must admit people who know how to switch between the Great Inner Truth and the Great Outer Truth (GIT & GOT) are rather clever
I prefer working the Inner Truth, so I'll be sticking to my role as thread owner right Here and Now.

Getting ready to go into class.
Cleaning, clearing energies, calling in spirits.
Looking forward to whatever comes my way.
Feeling pretty good despite dealing with some
heavier issues right now, just surfing the energetic waves.

I have been working a fair bit with the energy of fire lately,
its been load of fun.

LOVE that Picture, Astrid : )

Absolutely :)

[Cottage Rose]

Carmody, You offered to post a list of your recommended movies a while back. Could you post that list when you have an opportunity?

Also, somewhere you posted a link to a site that had free energy generator plans and a lot of other inventions. I planned to go back and purchase the CD. Do you have that link handy?

[astrid]

Speaking of fire, in between journey 2 and 3, i took a brief break and passing my bedroom door i saw flames.
A candle that i had going earlier as part of my clearing ritual had burnt down and was a blaze at the
base, about to start work on the timber sewing table it was sitting on.

Whoops.......

[astrid]

I second that on the film list, always on the look out for great movies i have missed....

[Ernie Nemeth]

Yes, definitely my dreams were guided by what I ate. But dreams are dreams, no? Are there different types of dream state? Don't know. Would have to ask one of our experts here in the village on the subject...

Hi Ernie,

nice to see you too. :) How are you ?

I am not an expert on dreams, but if i answer based on some personal experiences i would say yes, there are different types of dream states. Some of my dreams are visitations, some are 'manipulated' and some are just normal random dreams. Some dreams are also transcendental states of consciousness that start out as a dream, and then shift into an alert 'abiding' in that state.

[onawah]

A third request here for the movie list, Carmody.

[Guest]

Rose and anyone who is interested

here is a link to a book store that has a collection of publications of topics referenced on the forum; they also sometimes get in some rare gems or nuggets from time to time.

Today for me...
Mercury Sextile Neptune
That explains ALOT.

"Dreaminess.
This influence stimulates the imagination in a very positive way.
Your sensitivity to and awareness of the subtler aspects of the world
around you is greatly increased, and your intuition is much stronger
than usual. Sometimes this influence accompanies a period of dreaminess,
in which you spend much time fantasizing. In your contacts with people,
you have a much clearer sense of what is going on in others' minds.
If you can keep your perceptions straight in your head,
you will be astonished by the insights about people that this
influence can bring. However, during this time it is often difficult
to keep your intuitions sorted out. Clear thinking is not one of
your strong points today, and in fact you should try not to use your
rational mind very much. Rely more on your inner senses and feelings. "

[ViralSpiral]

6 pages since my last visit?!? Ulli, did you invite the village next door? ;)
What a wonderful, eclectic and lively bunch we are!

Last night, what I thought would be a light 'n fluffy dinner with a friend whose husband is away on a business trip, turned into something much much deeper and intense.
Whilst helping her do shadow work, my own wounds of disappointment and anger from recent relationship events arose ....... it was both painful and cleansing. I acknowledge that a deeper surrender and forgiveness needs to happen.
Its snowing, finally!
Not sure who mentioned that they like snow. Me three. I find it spiritually cleansing.
That's my here and now.... let me now go back and see the gifts the village brought

[Cottage Rose]

I had this dream last night:

I was in a building that had the ambiance of a metropolitan parking garage but there was a business area on the top floor. I was attempting to conduct some type of transaction. But, all through the dream, I was unable to speak... 95% speech paralysis. Every now and then I could barely get a word out. I felt completely out of sync with my surroundings. I was attempting without success to communicate with someone at a front desk. A manager came out of an office to assist, but could not understand me. Then, very near where I was standing, a huge cargo vehicle sped out of a bay and down the ramps of the building. My little dog, Tonto, was at my side. He lurched when the truck sped by and ran down the ramps after it. I was dressed in business heels and could not run on the steep ramps. At each level, I stopped at the guard station and frantically attempted to ask if they had seen my dog, but I could not speak. Outside the building was a very large field with shoulder high weeds and an old residential area in the distance. It was a desolate, unfamiliar area far from home and I was extremely saddened to think I might have lost my dog in such a place. Finally, in desperation I fell down on my knees in the mud. Then I managed to speak Tonto at a volume barely over a whisper and soon he stepped out of the field from the direction of the neighborhood carrying some object he had found. I was extremely relieved he wasn't lost and the dreamed ended.

[ViralSpiral]

Now if the lover could have looked ahead, he would have blessed the watchman at the start, and prayed on his behalf,
and he would have seen that tyranny as justice; but since the end was veiled to him,
he moaned and made his plaint in the beginning.
Yet those who journey in the garden land of knowledge, because they see the end in the beginning,
see peace in war and friendliness in anger.[/SIZE]

I see.
Now how to step out of the valley of love without attachment to it...

I like the story Ulli. Timeous. And not just for me then huh? lol




My son's aunt always has a boyfriend, no matter what. 1 day, 1 month or years. She stays 'active'.

Fweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep. My mantra would be: never has a boyfriend, no matter what. 1 day, 1 month or years. She stays 'in-active'.
That's what ya get for projection! Bah! Did make me laugh though.

ES, I LOVED your duffelbag story!! His joy will now be spread to other people, who have the opportunity to wake up! Cause and effect ♥


Nora, I keep you in my thoughts. Where fires burn, others are being flooded. Mojo started a thread about flooding in his area. Be safe!


Very meaningful message here.



This an example of a video that didnt appear in the post.
When replying to the quote, woosh, hello.
That man also reads Rumi! Trays oooh-la-la. He should be reading more of that instead of bashing the dreadful few.

http://projectavalon.net/forum4/images/smilies/pound.gif

Used to read Smoking Mirrors. He be funny and clever. Was spewing a little too much, sapping energy, so stayed away.


Here Patrick Willis shows his other side:


NXlvW1PPa0g


look at love
how it tangles
with the one fallen in love

look at spirit
how it fuses with earth
giving it new life

why are you so busy
with this or that or good or bad
pay attention to how things blend

why talk about all
the known and the unknown
see how the unknown merges into the known

why think seperately
of this life and the next
when one is born from the last

look at your heart and tongue
one feels but deaf and dumb
the other speaks in words and signs

look at water and fire
earth and wind
enemies and friends all at once

the wolf and the lamb
the lion and the deer
far away yet together

look at the unity of this
spring and winter
manifested in the equinox

you too must mingle my friends
since the earth and the sky
are mingled just for you and me

be like sugarcane
sweet yet silent
don't get mixed up with bitter words

my beloved grows
right out of my own heart
how much more union can there be


p.s. Calz /flirt!

[ViralSpiral]

here and now,
using the infrared lamp to get some relief.
Seemingly the only thing that helps at the moment.
Otherwise feeling very tired and off-key thru the 'jam'.
Actually had enough of it, long ago.



As they say in sunny South Africa: EISH!

Earth school aint for sissies. The next time, a time wave (warp) appears, I may hop onto it with my surfboard to see my other self. ;)
Perhaps she is already in Costa Rica, visiting Ulli and her cats!

[meeradas]

CAUTION: some Graphic language following


Just came out of a Journey where, Louis had a classic dismemberment initiation. He was stripped back to his bones and rebuilt into a much stronger dog, with full power.

Hey, sounds familiar... only it wasn't my dog, it was...
"me". This was quite sth...
The indignant egoic part was somehow half left in the body,
whilst perceiver-I was outside & inside and watched the procedure.
I haven't ever seen something more painful-looking and ...thorough.
Every part of the body was neatly disassembled from the other,
including the skin...
by metallic relentless precision machinery, on sth looking like conveyor belt...
the somehow toughest to watch & feel, was the steelbrush cleansing of
raw skinned muscle tissue and bones.

All I can tell you that I haven't forgotten this [obviously].
It happened during sleep; and i didn't ever consider to mistake this as a mere dream.
Only, i didn't know the significance back then [maybe 15 yrs ago?].


Oh my heavens! I want to do that!

Really?


Speaking of fire, in between journey 2 and 3, i took a brief break and passing my bedroom door i saw flames.
A candle that i had going earlier as part of my clearing ritual had burnt down and was a blaze at the
base, about to start work on the timber sewing table it was sitting on.


Astrid, careful.
I do not know the journeys' content, but careful please.

I had to wake up to my hand in flames, plus the mat i was lying upon on fire, once...


You may need Vitamin B Complex in high doses now, to heal the nerve.

Ulli, thank you for the salt thing - seems i have to get a microwave, after all the resistance...

Just got a Vitamin B-complex supplement in the local supermarket here,
'cause i remembered you.
Strange thing that happened:
As I was reading the package, i saw red pulses of light on it, about once per second.
There was nothing like it around, only white lights in the store.
Strange, really. I asked a clerk, if she could see sth, too -
she gave me sth like this :suspicious:...
but there must have been some invisible device up there, over this specific rack;
when i turned around and tried looking at the pack somewhere else, the pulsing was gone.

Can i see infrared now??:shocked:

PS: Carmody, please do think about your movies-list

[eaglespirit]

Well, it's time for me to come clean, Can't hide it any more !

I've fallen in love with our new pup, Purdy !

A beautiful puppy soul she is : )

No, no, no...don't get a microwave. I suggested it in case you had one already.
Alternatively you could pour a bag of salt into a frying pan, but it must be clean...no oil should be left.

Then just heat your salt in that. It just takes longer. Pour the hot salt onto a kitchen towel, made of cotton, and fold it like an envelope. Not as secure as the pillow case method, you have to handle it with more care so the salt doesn't fall out... place that on your pain...try it out and see what happens.

[dan33]

Good morning, Calz, Eaglespirit, Ulli and of course everyone.
Sunny day, temp 14 c·. etc.

Just readed Sport http://www.sport.es/es/
Waiting for the new washing machine that i'd bought yesterday, while i was chuckling to myself about your comments.
Later, at 16:30, i have to buy a new pc (the one i'm working with... smells like... i don't know... bull****). It's a PC not a MAC like has Ulli ( la señorita Ulli tiene un MAC último modelo... pues mira que bien. :))
I hear the bell
the new washing machine is wornking now. It's an intelligent being, i think. We'll be friends in a short time. I remember my cat, years ago, inside the washing machine while i was "putting" clothes in. I saw movement inside, it was her. Get out!.

and now i'm going to watch CNN News or what is the same... John and Jenny. The other day, John was reading the news with his back to the camera during the entire program.

I have to write down one of this days a regression. In one i was an egyptian priest who had sex with women to see the future. He sniffed a green powder. The other i was in Ireland and the vikings were "burning the woods"!... i was burned in the stake. And the third one it was like the movie Dancing with Wolves (i think the movie interferred with the regression)

Daniel, you are very witty or chatty... or wathever

[meeradas]

No, no, no...don't get a microwave. I suggested it in case you had one already.

Don't worry, Ulli!
I heard they also serve as Faraday cages....

Thanks for caring so much - most appreciated!
Have thought about alternative heating methods too...
Will be heating salt, whilst infrared session goes on...
and then go to sleep.

I'll report later on.

Mercury sextile Neptune is perfect for shamanic journeys. Also for dreams...movies...

[astrid]

yes i thought the same thing myself when i read that,
and it's certainly been a monumental day, Shamanically speaking,
I'm still processing it. My teacher was sort of speechless.

Dismemberment is classic Shamanic initiation, and incredibly powerfuI.
I have been reading up more on it tonight, i only knew the basics before.
Interestingly and I'm sad to say that poor Louis had a pretty hard day after
that, he really seemed to have physical symptoms from it.
But fingers crossed that he will now get much stronger.
I did a very intense Reiki session on him earlier and he is now in a deep sleep.

[Marianne]

The village has been busy while I was asleep.

Starsha, thank you-thank you-thank you for your words on shadow work! I am deep into it.

ViralSpiral, thinking of you.

I am feeling tender, but doing better today. Got a chunk of lepidolite in my pocket, thanks PL for the tip that it soothes the emotional body.

Venus conjunct Jupiter is supposed to put me in an infectious good mood today, whooppee, I hope so!

1inMany, you are a gem. Meeradas, hope you are doing better. Astrid, shine on ... you inspire us.

Eaglespirit, thanks for all your wisdom... have fun with your puppy! Nora, your presence blesses us.

Thanks to all... Calz, Modwiz, Dan33, Ernie, Benevolent Crow, Rose, Belle, LisaB, and of course Ulli... who am I missing?

Have to go make some juice and go to work .... TGIF.

Good morning, Marianne. Good evening Astrid.
I'm predicting now that as most social interaction is being transfered to the Internet these greeting terms may soon become obsolete.
Buying gas has become a solo adventure as no more attendants run around your car while the tank is being filled. One less person to greet.
Shopping means more isolation with only a cashier to confront, someone who has no idea what eye contact is, let alone a greeting.
Lots more examples out there of how we are gradually becoming more isolated, while the machines are taking over our lives.
However, I hope I never lose the technology that connects us Villagers.
Here and now, brilliant morning sunlight making the trees outside look like gigantic green and yellow flowers.
Cold air, going to put my arms back under the blanket as soon as I finished typing this.

What happened today allready for me is, ( and the day is far from over).


* A good learning experience being a noob( just found out what noob meant, i asked and got my anwser, and agree with the fact i am an obvious noob,and am not ashamed of this at all, if no questions are asked no anwsers are given)

* I learned i still respond very emotionally and fast, to information thats completely new to me, and discovered i am quite capable of making an ass out myself when reading back my responses half an hour later.( so in fact i do learn fast)

*It is really easy to go along with a story presented ( even if they did a poor job of presenting).

* I am sure i am not the only one who went through this proces, so how did you guys handle all of this stuff on Avalon, and how do you cope with this?

665 Plumber,

Just BREATH!! I think most people new to Avalon go through a learning curve.

You are in the best place, here and now, to be encouraged in your experiences and sharing.

Give yourself time to respond. We'll still be here half an hour later.

Welcome to the village. Let me know if you want to learn how to embed youtube videos.

Marianne

[jcocks]

I just posted this on another thread, and realised that I may have just brought up something quite important for the coming times - that are quite literally just around the corner. I don't normally cross-post like this. I'd like to know what your thoughts on this are?


How long are we going to have to wait? Not long I imagine...

There's something at play that is really causing everything to come bubbling up to the surface like never before. I have never felt so down as I have in the last few months. Now I think I understand, we have a short period of time to try and clear away our emotional baggage before we have, to put it rather mildly, a lot more on on our hands. Personally I'm looking forward to it, but in the meantime I'm left pondering how I am to process this down energy I'm currently feeling.... And this is a personal process, as it is for everyone. If you have a strong emotional reaction to anytthing posted in this forum, then maybe you have to take a break and look at what lies beneath. And, trust me, it is in your best interests to DEAL WITH IT NOW!

Now, it is personal baggage....but soon, it will be the baggage of a civilisation that has been decieved and controlled for millenia.... And, BOY, if THAT going to be interesting - and painful....
And, there'll be NO getting around it, it will have to be dealt with...


I think I'm close to me breakthrough. I'm not there yet, but I *THINK* I can at least - finally - see the path for me to walk laid out ahead of me....:)

Thank you Marianne,

I will keep up the breathing and keep sharing, i have seen most of the Camelot an Avalon interviews etc, and some make sense and others have to many open ends and questions atached to them, great stories with often little factual evidence to them, they can give great hope or bring great concern, and just by reading the responses of many many people to them they still apear to be a mystery to many of us and just remain hear say stories to me, i am sure a lot of people do agree with this hence the ongoing discussions on many of the presented subjects.:twitch:

I would like to take you up on the embedding offer.:o

Thanks for your good advice and i am happy to be part of the family and the village

[Marianne]

I would like to take you up on the embedding offer.

Youtube videos have an 11-digit code... it's typically after v=

Copy this code

In the reply box where the video will be, click the Youtube icon. This will place text into the reply box, with the cursor in the middle. Paste in the 11-digit code.

Post your reply.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Really?
Yeah...to have an intimate working relationship with the energies that can make that kind of difference. I have been fascinated with that kind of work for a while, but it doesn't feel like that's where I'm called. Actually, don't know what I'm called to do...yet...just called to be I suppose. I have also been researching trying to find a Native American medicine man for at least a year. Alas, they aren't listed in the yellow pages lol. I know I need to connect with a Shaman type of person, somehow there is some energy work that I need, but our finances, though they are better than many, don't allow for it.

Marianne...I'm a gem? Awwww, thank you for the warm fuzzies on a morning where I feel more like a grumpy ole bear. <3

Here and Now...solar flares bigtime. Should be hitting my area any time. And boy howdy, this will be a doozy. Seriously, any ideas on what we can do here to minimize the negative effects? Maybe there is a crystal...a stone...something?

I bought a bunch of black obsidian, jet, and black tourmaline...what...a few weeks ago? And, boom, they're all gone. Gave one here, gave one there, my daughter has I don't know how many under her bed & in her pocket... I'm comfortable they all made to where they needed to go, where they were needed. Guess I better scrape together some money for another order lol.

Today I dread the task at hand. I honestly dread it. Tomorrow is an annual corporate function for my husband, I lovingly refer to it as the B.S. Banquet. He's an exec, and I "the exec's wife"...blick. So, I have to go out into the world of retail looking for some stupid dress or sparkly apparel items...I told him this year I am going as me and just wearing jeans. I told him I would wear a bustier and a suit jacket to a more dressy version of me. I chuckle, he liked that idea. I was joking though, well, at least half joking. No one wears jeans to this stupid thing.

One of my all-time favorite movies is The Red Violin. I would suggest movies to watch, but it would be a waste of time without knowing the taste of those who want a list. It's a movie that illustrates many, many spiritual truths, has many layers. There is the 3D layer, too, and the stories it contains are absolutely beautiful, imo. On the surface it is the story of a violin that moves through, or survives, many generations...changing families and cultures and timelines and languages and lives. I LOVE the ending...where it finds its final resting place...or resting place for this generation. Over the past couple of years, each daughter has now seen it, my hubby has seen it...everyone that I know that has seen it has enjoyed it whether they pick up on all the deeper layers or not. I highly recommend it. Since there are so many languages spoken here, I offer this piece of information...which I usually do not share because it is such an important piece of the story as it unfolds...but...the movie is offered to an English speaking audience. There are many parts in the movie in which different languages are spoken, and for those times English subtitles are included. If you speak the other languages, it seems to me it would be an even more moving experience.

Much Love,

I always return to salt, its the best for anything. I've seen it cure open ugly wounds that no antibiotic will touch. I got a nasty gash on the palm of my hand last week. It was below my thumb so it kept re opening, and it got infected. I half-arsedly horsed around with it for a week , and it more aggravated and more inflamed. Stuck it in a pain of hot salt water, just once, until the wound softened up and two days later its closed., healing , no infection.


Great for toothaches too.







You may need Vitamin B Complex in high doses now, to heal the nerve.

Ulli, thank you for the salt thing - seems i have to get a microwave, after all the resistance...

Just got a Vitamin B-complex supplement in the local supermarket here,
'cause i remembered you.
Strange thing that happened:
As I was reading the package, i saw red pulses of light on it, about once per second.
There was nothing like it around, only white lights in the store.
Strange, really. I asked a clerk, if she could

PS: Carmody, please do think about your movies-list

No, no, no...don't get a microwave. I suggested it in case you had one already.
Alternatively you could pour a bag of salt into a frying pan, but it must be clean...no oil should be left.

Then just heat your salt in that. It just takes longer. Pour the hot salt onto a kitchen towel, made of cotton, and fold it like an envelope. Not as secure as the pillow case method, you have to handle it with more care so the salt doesn't fall out... place that on your pain...try it out and see what happens.

Mercury Sextile Neptune
That explains ALOT.
Boy, do I wish I could do a quick google or something and have that kind of information available in the morning. Horoscopes are more of a thought for the day than anything informative.

Oh my heavens! I want to do that!
Really?
Yeah...to have an intimate working relationship with the energies that can make that kind of difference. I have been fascinated with that kind of work for a while, but it doesn't feel like that's where I'm called. Actually, don't know what I'm called to do...yet...just called to be I suppose. I have also been researching trying to find a Native American medicine man for at least a year. Alas, they aren't listed in the yellow pages lol. I know I need to connect with a Shaman type of person, somehow there is some energy work that I need, but our finances, though they are better than many, don't allow for it.

Marianne...I'm a gem? Awwww, thank you for the warm fuzzies on a morning where I feel more like a grumpy ole bear. <3

Here and Now...solar flares bigtime. Should be hitting my area any time. And boy howdy, this will be a doozy. Seriously, any ideas on what we can do here to minimize the negative effects? Maybe there is a crystal...a stone...something?

I bought a bunch of black obsidian, jet, and black tourmaline...what...a few weeks ago? And, boom, they're all gone. Gave one here, gave one there, my daughter has I don't know how many under her bed & in her pocket... I'm comfortable they all made to where they needed to go, where they were needed. Guess I better scrape together some money for another order lol.

Today I dread the task at hand. I honestly dread it. Tomorrow is an annual corporate function for my husband, I lovingly refer to it as the B.S. Banquet. He's an exec, and I "the exec's wife"...blick. So, I have to go out into the world of retail looking for some stupid dress or sparkly apparel items...I told him this year I am going as me and just wearing jeans. I told him I would wear a bustier and a suit jacket to a more dressy version of me. I chuckle, he liked that idea. I was joking though, well, at least half joking. No one wears jeans to this stupid thing.

Much Love,

You do write such wonderful posts, 1inMany
About your calling...I'm sure it's still mum stuff, at least for a few more years. But you are being prepared for that next phase of life, by your awakening curiosity about what else is there to do for you.
Take it one step at a time...first find out what really is your thing.
Somehow I don't think it is astrology, although it is quite easy to get a daily reading online...
all you have to do is go to www.astro.com then look for the free charts button, and put in your birth data.
You'll be surprised how much info you can get for yourself.
But you want to keep working with kids I think. The answers always appear as soon as the question has been clearly defined. That is the hardest part.

[Marianne]

Marianne...I'm a gem?

Indeedy you are, 1inMany!

But I would encourage you to look closer at astrology ... you will find it's much more than a thought for the day ... it's exceedingly informative!

Here's a website that has good information, and you can get a free transit each day. On Thursdays you can see all the transits.
www.astrodienst.com or www.astro.com

Love to you,
Marianne

PS: I see Ulli has already given you that website!

[1inMany]

I love you, Ulli.

& Marianne ;)

Now, isn't that a sight. One yay, one nay. :kiss:

update: went to that website and got a natal chart. Um....there sure are a lot of lines on that thing, aren't there? Well, I have it now. No doubt will take me yeeaaars to figure out what it says lol. Thanks, guys :)

p.s. to update: Here's this...Moon Square Mars, exact at 18:54
Moon in the 5th House, from 08:08
Moon Trine Ascendant, exact at 09:32
Moon Square Chiron, exact at 03:54
Would you please tell me if that is really, really personal and I shouldn't put it "out here"? And, if anyone has any comments, I would really love to hear them.

Much Love,

Now, isn't that a sight. One yay, one nay. :kiss:

I was only speaking of astrology as a tool for self knowledge... looks like Ulli is speaking of astrology as a possible calling for you.
:hug:

Go to the daily horoscope page too ... that will give you the day's transit.
And look through the free stuff ... there's a report there that explains your chart, in words you can understand!

Much Love,

What you have there are the transits by the moon to your natal planets, and during those times there will be emotional moments that stand out a bit.

For instance, when the moon is square Mars there could be an event that heats you up...you might feel anger. Mars is the planet of action and even war.
Also a square aspect can be a bit of a test.
But since these are only moon transits, which only last a couple of hours it shouldn't be a big deal.
Moone trine Ascendant signifies a pleasant moment.

I pay more attention to the outer planets' aspects. For example when Pluto makes a square to your sun, which happens only once in a lifetime, and can span a period of up to two years, that's what you might need a bit of coaching for.
When Pluto squared my sun, for instance, from 1979 until 1981, massive changes took place which ended with me moving to another country. During that time also I gave birth, and my father passed away. Pluto is associated with life and death and rebirth, and major upheavals.
Each planet has distinct qualities which set the tone of the events that transpire during a transit.
These are the names of the angles: a trine is 120 degrees, a square is 90 degrees, a sextile is 60 degrees, a semi square is 45 degrees, an opposition is 180 degrees, a quincunx is 150 degrees. Those are the main ones. Some astrologers also divide the circle by 5, or by 7.
So then you get angles called septile (51.5 degrees) or quintile (72 degrees)...but these are mostly ignored.
However when I used to pay attention to them I was quite amazed at the accuracy of the mathematics of the heavens and how our lives really parallel these sacred geometry laws.
The wonderment never ends.

Here is another quote from the Seven Valleys of Baha'u'llah:
From the Valley of Wonderment:

"Indeed, O Brother, if we ponder each created thing, we shall witness a myriad perfect wisdoms
and learn a myriad new and wondrous truths.
One of the created phenomena is the dream.
Behold how many secrets are deposited therein, how many wisdoms treasured up,
how many worlds concealed.
Observe, how thou art asleep in a dwelling, and its doors are barred;
on a sudden thou findest thyself in a far-off city,
which thou enterest without moving thy feet or wearying thy body;
without using thine eyes, thou seest; without taxing thine ears, thou hearest;
without a tongue, thou speakest.
And perchance when ten years are gone,
thou wilt witness in the outer world the very things thou hast dreamed tonight."

Much Love,

Those are the transits based on the birth information you entered, so if you put in your birth info, then they are personal to you. Most of them change daily. Some last a week or two, some are months (you'll see the long term ones at the bottom of the page ... pay more attention to them)

I've noticed most of the moon transits are 'weak and transient' so are not going to impact you as much as the planets.

One of the transits will be selected each day by the computer, and you'll get the full report on that ... usually a paragraph or two. The others are just listed there for you. You can get more info on them by googling them. Or you can buy a subscription and see them all at anytime... that's what I did after fiddling around for years. It's about $45 a year.

Update: didn't know Ulli was on... just replying to give you a little bit.

[astrid]

3.55 am .Woke up after a dead sleep
checking thread updates . 1inMany good you found
Astro.com it's a very handy site .Left hand site click on
The Free link and then go to daily report .

Salt I also use a lot for everything also , lately I'm using
Celtic sea salt which has 84 different trace elements.
We mostly mineral deficient thanks to our food being
so badly messed with . Something else noticed with
my diet changies is that I have been eating a lot
of different spices then I find out what their properties
are and it's totally sychronicious . Cinamon is an
excellent blood sugar regulator a friend was telling me
on the phone yesterday and I just so happen to be using
a heap of it in my green morning smoothie. No hunger at
all anymore .and wheat grass is insane for giving you a boost
of energy in the morning all that chlorophyll . And totally easy to
grow not to mention fast and cheap . 3 teaspoons of organic
wheat seeds yields you a lot of grass in just a few days .
Inside window sill easy as , chop of a handful into your
morning blender mix and viola !! My energy levels in the
morning so much improved .

I listened to a 2 hour talk our astro YouTuber Tom did on
2012 and Uranus and Pluto yesterday, he went through
all the houses describing how these transits are going to
effect us individually I found it a good listen . You have
to have you chart ready to get full benefit though.
I will post link up here later when I'm on big Mac.
So check back this post if you are interested .

Louis here snoring away. The images of that journey
still so vivid and I'm still tryIng to integrate it all, one
of those times when i need to chat to someone more
advanced than me to debrief a little . My trainer is in
the middle of moving house too so can't really bother her.
I'm totally fine it's no big deal it was just a very ntense day.
One of the rare times when being alone sucks somewhat
you don't have that constant someone to debrief with
Time for more sleep

It’s just like when you try to look at your nose, you can’t see it no matter how hard you try until you look in a mirror. Shadows are the blind spots in our psyche, the aspects of our self that we have a hard time seeing, but other people can see. When a person in your life annoys or upsets you it can be a sign that they are revealing your shadow to you, when a person is acting in a way that triggers you, makes you irritated or upset, those are your golden moments to do integration work. These are the moments when the unconscious is rising up to the surface to be seen through with the light of awareness. The key to seeing clearly is willingness and self love. Being able to look closely at a shadow is not always easy, and often will be wrapped in feelings of shame or guilt; this is where the willingness to forgive yourself and love and accept the shadow aspect comes into play.

Wonderful post on shadow work, Starsha. Thank you.

Being raised Roman Catholic, my shadow work has mostly involved feelings of shame and guilt. For a long time as shadows appeared, I would quickly try to bury them, but the feelings of embarassment, guilt and shame would remain.

A funny thing happened when I tried to ignore them...they would pop into memory more often and at the most inopportune times. And so the work began...looking them straight in the 'eyes', examining the wound to the point of reopening it...slashing open the wound to let the pus out so healing could begin. But the shame and guilt remained...causing pain from the open wound and stop healing from occurring.

It was at one of my lowest points, totally depressed and almost hating myself for being such a monster, that I was introduced to Ho'oponopono...I'm sorry; please forgive me; thank you; I love you...and learned to forgive myself. For some reason, forgiving others came easily, but forgiving myself had been almost impossible...ho'oponopono was the final step I needed to take in order to complete my shadow work.

[astrid]

Yes tres excellent posts on shadow work everyone for
sure absolutely no accidents there. It's more important
than ever to do this work .And to be as open as you
possibly can to change is goong be the difference for
many many people between having a great 2012 to
having a very rough time . Right attitude so crucial
now . This thread becoming more important than ever
for he wider audience also . Some of this recent info
is real make or break stuff and that's not being dramatic .
Having cleaned our your baggage means that energy flows
much more fluidly and the external drama just does not
stick to you anymore it's kind of cool . Something might
upset you briefly when it happens then it's over and done
with, no dwelling, no calling 20 people over it making it
everyone else's drama as well, just peace and faster
processing .

Totally agree with you about the microwave.

What happened today allready for me is, ( and the day is far from over).


* A good learning experience being a noob( just found out what noob meant, i asked and got my anwser, and agree with the fact i am an obvious noob,and am not ashamed of this at all, if no questions are asked no anwsers are given)

* I learned i still respond very emotionally and fast, to information thats completely new to me, and discovered i am quite capable of making an ass out myself when reading back my responses half an hour later.( so in fact i do learn fast)

*It is really easy to go along with a story presented ( even if they did a poor job of presenting).

* I am sure i am not the only one who went through this proces, so how did you guys handle all of this stuff on Avalon, and how do you cope with this?

Feeling light and happy today. Such a beautiful day...sun shining in deep blue skies and puffy, billowy white clouds.

After becoming more and more disgusted with Whole Foods, I finally found a 'grocery store' I just love...Trader Joe's. Have passed by it hundreds of times, but finally went in this morning.

It's charming...like an old time store with wooden check out counters, lots of helpful and friendly people, and filled with all sorts of wonderful things that are GMO free with no additives, artificial flavors, colors or preservatives, and lots of organics. And the prices were surprisingly low.

I must have had my mouth hanging open when walking the aisles...had several employees stop to say "You must be new. Let me know if I can help you with anything." I even got a free bouquet of flowers at check out...the clerk rang a brass bell hanging nearby (no piped in music or pa system) and the manager presented me with the flowers. Definitely will be shopping there from now on.

[write4change]

Okay it has been one hard fast week and while I have read some, I have written very little.

I found my keys after 12 hours on the couch for those who wrote that and how I could not find them for 12 hours beats me. I also found a very important paper a couple of days ago that also appeared on the top of the pile of my desk.

Finding the keys allowed me to get to court the following day without having to get up at 5 AM to do it. This is the second time I have been to criminal court as a witness and spent hours with police officers getting to find out who they really are. I have learned a lot about vice which I needed to know. This was a preliminary hearing before the trial. Theft part thrown out. Interesting how hard it is to prove theft. My part stayed in and the trial will be in about a month. The prosecutor was a wuss and never even talked to me prior to putting me on the stand. The defender was a tiger and really trying to trip you up prefacing questions like you were invited in and I would have to correct I was not invited etc.

I am writing right now because I need to vent. I read with interest much of the treac about why I would or would not give you a job. I helped for a month a young man of 25 and then he went back to Texas and came back out here Friday and I picked him up at the train station. So we have been together a week. Lots of things bothered me about him before but I felt he was young, bruised and indecisive. Sort of extended vacation mode. I felt when he came back that he would step up to the plate as an adult. From my perspective, he flips back and forth between everything. I know I am going to have to speak to him but I keep trying to get into a more grounded and centered place about it.

So this morning after he leaves, I see he left this little book out on the couch which I have just finished reading. It is called the Under Achiever's Manifesto: The Guide to Accomplishing Little and Feeling Great. by Ray Bennett, MD of Seattle, Washington.

It explains all my problems with him. Like everything there are some elements of truth in it but the big picture is not there. It is more like a power point presentation without context, background, historical data, or any facts discussing both sides now.

This time he has made himself very visible and already caused a lot of problems with my neighbors--so he will be gone in 30 days or less. Tonight we will talk about this book. The crux of which is easy come, easy go; and since he is striving for nothing--he really has no skin in the game. I don't think he is a representative of all young people but he is typical of a lot of the young men at Occupy LA--I just never had it spelled out for me like this in black and white.

I am writing this now to get i off my chest. While I think about it.

Good to see You and hear from You, Write4change...Thanks for sharing and venting!

Glad you found your keys, Write4Change....
The whole under-achiever thing is a knee-jerk against corporate dogma.
The fierce competition game of the corporate world has replaced the warfare of earlier centuries.
If you can just get him to see that joining the opposition is still just the same coin...except it's flip side...he might become aware that he needs to look for option number three.
The midpoint between the two sides.
Then his eyes will open to what it is he really wants to do.

I meant to reply about the 'movie list'. I've went to make one and then stopped at the last minute. My reasons for doing so is that it is like a question asked under hypnosis. It is a true, real and deep answer. If anyone wanted to truly know the child that walks in my boots..book lists and movie lists are a good way of getting information on the innards of my psychology.

Which is a card, I have decided..that I will keep close. For the moment.

[Lisab]

Its not a life changing film or anything but the film that resonates with me at the moment with all the shadow work, is David Lynch's Wild At Heart. It soooo reminds me of the role I played when I was 16 with me as Lula and Diane Ladd my psychopathic mother. I got the hell away from my mother straight into a dysfunctional relationship with an older guy(not quite the Nicholas Cage character of Sailor unfortunatley, but not far off). My best friend, since school remembers the day I left my mother's house like it was yesterday. She met me round the corner, me with a bin liner full of my stuff, her a bag of nerves ( she was more scared of my mother than I was). She says that as we walked up the street together, towards my new life, I turned to her and said "is my lipstick on straight?". Lol

But that quote of Lula's...This whole world's wild at heart and weird on top......still gets to me. Reminds me of me, so much. Damn Archons!!!!

Unbelievable day in work today. Cant seem to post what happened yet. Feel sick.

I meant to reply about the 'movie list'. I've went to make one and then stopped at the last minute. My reasons for doing so is that it is like a question asked under hypnosis. It is a true, real and deep answer. If anyone wanted to truly know the child that walks in my boots..book lists and movie lists are a good way of getting information on the innards of my psychology.

Which is a card, I have decided..that I will keep close. For the moment.

....only for the moment... ok? I'm anxious to read your list. :)

I have a fantasy from years ago. I will love to see, for example, "2001: a space odyssey" for the FIRST time again. Could be possible with hypnosis?. Delete or block the "memory" and start the session without any clue that you are going to see. Would be wonderful.

Its not a life changing film or anything but the film that resonates with me at the moment with all the shadow work, is David Lynch's Wild At Heart. It soooo reminds me of the role I played when I was 16 with me as Lula and Diane Ladd my psychopathic mother. I got the hell away from my mother straight into a dysfunctional relationship with an older guy(not quite the Nicholas Cage character of Sailor unfortunatley, but not far off).

Thanks Lisab.

The opening of the film is stunning. I remember at the cinema, the music so intense and all the fire.

One thing about shadow work. It has to be done slowly.
Please, everyone, take it easy, especially with the dark movies.
The moment stuff comes up stronger that one can digest it is a good idea to turn one's attention to something more soothing,
or else there will only be new trauma piled on top of the old.

Where the focus goes, energy flows.

Here is a guy who designs gardens that yield fruit all year round:
http://www.nextworldtv.com/videos/permaculture/forever-food-in-the-garden.html
Bill Mollison's Garden

Bill Mollison from Tasmania, Australia, is a researcher, author, scientist, teacher and naturalist. He is considered to be the 'father of permaculture'.

He takes us on a tour of his garden here and explains that permaculture is a way to develop a system that can go on forever. "Your work in planting is done after a year or so, and basically after that you become a forager."

Doesn't that sound great? He says: "Nature doesn't contain such a garden. It's incredibly rich in functional plants and in yields- higher than a monoculture system or nature itself."

"There is always something to eat, any time of year" he says, hand picking his next salad. Of course he is in a tropical climate- but growing food with these principles, on any scale, in any climate is well worth learning more about.

Ok here goes. Most of you here know I work part time. The team I work with in the call centre is the part time team. Basically, apart from the odd young'un in college, were a team of mother's, who used to be full time in the office but prefer now to stay at home with our kids. Even tho I'm a loner and no matter how different we are as personalities we are known in the call centre as a pretty tight team. If one of the girls is "off" or not getting on with the boss etc we're all there for each other. To cut a long story short one of the girls, who has a pretty tough home life tried to commit suicide in the toilets a few weeks ago. Knife to the neck, a few hours missing, blood everywhere, the girl who found off her with counselling. For some reason theyve let her come back to work (too soon in my opinion,no suicide watch). And well last night she took tablets and overdosed, but is still alive. Her daughter is 8, no partner, awful parents who rule her life. Im not going to go into more detail, there's alot more going on.

BUT here's the flip side, another girl on my team is waking up and it's the loveliest, funniest thing to see. Its all a bit fluffy at the moment....indigo kids, archangels etc. But the great thing is, is she's a hindu in a horrible arranged marriage. We've been friends for a few years, but she's always just laughed at me and my 'insights', but she's finally decided to follow her own path and to hell with her brothers and their views. I'm so proud of her. I gave her rose quartz about two years ago and she still carries the same piece around with her.

Hope Im making sense. Tired tonight. It's been hectic.

Ulli thanks for your post. I havnt actually seen that film in years, but has always reminded me of, as I said a 'part' of my life. With shadow work I think its good to own everything not just the dark stuff as in old relationships etc, but also the cringy aspects, like the jealous me, the inferior me, the stupid me etc etc ....and that's what Im working on right now.

[Lisab]

The strange thing about this whole affair......when the first suicide attempt happened I kept it out of the village and lit candles for my friend etc. But I wanted to share tonight because of the polarity events of my friend waking up. Bizarre. In another twist, our team we're split into two today and I wont be on the same team as my friend waking up. We both looked at each other scared and horrified, but I realised later were to hold the light separetely on each team!

You also gave yourself a new avatar recently, a character called "Death"...
if I were you I would consider avoiding all sensationalism and drama right now,
especially as there are people around you are on a suicide trip.
It is harder for the water signs to create a stable atmosphere in the midst of turmoil, but us earth signs can help with that.

I know! And had thought it myself. She's not even a dark character, far from. But the coincidenses have really made me think today. But isnt that wonderful. I mean there's still a beauty in there somewhere, isnt there? A lesson of sorts. Love my avatar though. But I know exactly what you mean.

she may not be a dark character, but behind the story there is a writer who gave her that name, and no creativity is accidental.

Anyway, I don't want to make a big deal out of this, just pointing out that as we are the balancers
we must remember that different conditions demand different energies.

So when life is dull it's a good idea to inject a bit of drama,
but when it becomes too dramatic, as in people trying to kill themselves, then the opposite approach may be the better remedy.

Gulp, that's a toughie Lisa :(
Especially since a small child is involved.
Reading Carmody's astrology thread, I saw this:



People were wondering in the other thread, why they feel expectant, why it feels so... well..read the title of the other thread.

I responded with the information that Neptune was about to enter Pisces, and thus..change the energetic flow, polarization, and frequencies that are timeless... and that our existence is based on and influenced by.




We are entering extreme times, and some wont cope....
I hope, for her sake, she seeks help.

Loved hearing about your other friend. The beginning of the journey is very angelic. Its great that you're around, when uglier "truths" emerge.

Here and Now...I hate the mall. I loathe the mall. And I'm done with it today. Black it is. Ended in a compromise...pants & jacket...a form-enhancing (teehee) black shirt with some silver on it. See? I threw in shiny, sparkly stuff just for the occasion. I'm done with being what someone else wants. If I have to go, them I'm integrating who I am in what I'm wearing.

Glad to hear about your keys, Write, and I rather enjoyed your sharing today Lisab. Of course, I don't mean I enjoyed the despair, but I was able to identify with you & see some of myself in you, and those connections are cool.

Much Love,

[Lisab]

Ulli remember a few weeks/mnths or whatever, ago when we had drama in the village, over certain people feeling insecure over the more negative traits of their horoscopes being out there. Can you remember me saying dont ever be afraid to tell me the truth as you see on my natal, I can take it. I really meant that. You came back with an accurate prediction of my upcoming aspects, but what I really meant was my personality as you saw me. Im ok with it. I want to work on it. Im not half as sensitive as I used to be! I get what your saying and I appreciate it and I love you for it. There are never any coincidences in my life.

Jeez, took me ages to get that avatar up! Ok Il wipe the signature for now and sort out another one. Ive got a lovely fairy painted by someone I admire. Then we'll put up me!

I dont want drama. The last thing I want is drama. I know Im a Pisces, and I know Ive got a lot of water on my chart, but I really think Im sooo over it!!!

[1inMany]

I haven't even ventured into other threads lately, so I don't know about the "why you won't give me a job" thing...but, Write, I am soooooo hoping the young man we just committed to doesn't turn out to be like your young man. I will say, though, that I think I will be able to give this one a 30-day notice if he proves himself wanting to go nowhere. I don't/won't give up on all young people either. There's a song by Garth Brooks called The Change. Paraphrasing here, people point to him and ask why he even tries to help just one, you may not change anything. But his reply is, "I do this so this world will know it will not change me." Maybe it isn't about changing the world, just staying strong in who we are. Whatever young people (or anyone whose lives we touch) learn or gain from us, it will not leave them so our time is not in vain.

Much Love,

Mars is currently in Virgo, and any moment will stop there, before going retrograde.
All this is happening within one degree of your natal Uranus, so it will be a bit of a ride, at least until the end of February. Added to that Uranus on your Saturn...Uranian energies are going off like little dynamite sticks all over.
It is a good time to freshen up on your computer and astrology knowledge, as those two areas are associated with Uranus.
But you will get all sorts of quirky ideas pop into your head.
Uranus also rules alarm clocks, so it is definitely a time for wake-up calls...to you and those around you.

This is my current dream, my little perma-culture garden. Am currently locked in a battle with local residents, against a developement here, more trees to be cut down for multi million pound properties, that ironiclly NOONE will be able to afford. The developer is the father to one of the kids in my little uns class. Britain is now the most thinly wooded country in Europe. Breaks my heart. But the campaign is going well.

The luxury of staying in bed is hopefully not called lazy, unless it truly is. The slave lives we have led on this planet put some very unfair programming into our heads. Make sure you are truly lazy and not just playing a program. We work and we rest and the clock is not the final arbiter of it. Our choices and discretion are.

[PurpleLama]

Laziness should be treated as an art form.

[Anchor]

I'm in my weekend place - on my farm. I have decided to have a lazy day, I need a rest. I will do some more work on my final solar project. Then later this afternoon when the storms that are due roll in I will watch them.

I had a rough week, and the drive to the farm last night finished me off. I have aches and pains everywhere - and my head hurts :)

I will get dressed in a minute and go and see if any of my olive trees have olive lace bug on them. If so, and if there is not too much sun, I will doom them all with some organic pyretherins - Mwahahaha

[astrid]

The laziness dig i had at myself was very much tongue in cheek.
I should have added a :p.

I can proudly attest to turning being " lazy" into an art form
by finding many ways of doing the maximum amount of work
with the least amount of effort. This my friends is why we have
magic, and it will be soon be the rule for most rather than the
exception, IMHO anyways , At least in the new dimension that
some of us are already residing in.

John, did you find any lace bugs? I have toyed with the idea of making my own pyretherin from the daisy that contains natural pyretherin.

[jcocks]

Feeling light and happy today. Such a beautiful day...sun shining in deep blue skies and puffy, billowy white clouds.

After becoming more and more disgusted with Whole Foods, I finally found a 'grocery store' I just love...Trader Joe's. Have passed by it hundreds of times, but finally went in this morning.

It's charming...like an old time store with wooden check out counters, lots of helpful and friendly people, and filled with all sorts of wonderful things that are GMO free with no additives, artificial flavors, colors or preservatives, and lots of organics. And the prices were surprisingly low.

I must have had my mouth hanging open when walking the aisles...had several employees stop to say "You must be new. Let me know if I can help you with anything." I even got a free bouquet of flowers at check out...the clerk rang a brass bell hanging nearby (no piped in music or pa system) and the manager presented me with the flowers. Definitely will be shopping there from now on.

Wow. Now THAT'S customer service. I'd definitely be a repeat customer after that :)

[Anchor]

John, did you find any lace bugs? I have toyed with the idea of making my own pyretherin from the daisy that contains natural pyretherin.

Unfortunately yes, rather a lot. The storm came early so, change of plan.

I still have some of last years Pyganic - this is an organic source of pyretherins made from Chrysanthemums. Its expensive though... but contains 13g/L. With that you add 2ml to 1L (water or white oil, if also treating scale) - I use a 200L spray pack as I have a lot of trees. 400mL of Pyganic is about $70 !!

It's enough to make you tempted to go non-organic...

Here and Now...I'm def not an expert, so all I can say is that solar flares wreak havoc. Plain and simple. At precisely 3:25, I got a booming headache out of nowhere. Same time, grandson is complaining of stomach ache, and sure enough had a fever. 2 hours at the dr, xrays...good news, the penny has passed...bad news, has pneumonia. While at the dr. the young man's mother, whose phone number is now blocked on every one of our phones, sends a text to someone who forwards it to my teenage daughter...and the text says that she has filed harassment charges against hubby. Now, if that isn't freaking convoluted enough, I can certainly go on. Sheesh.

I had an opportunity, and I took it, to use my old friend from my old life, prayer. Because of old religious programming, I've never been able to get myself comfortable calling on spirits or other beings or archangels as many would have had me try at one time or another. But, today I found a variation that I am more than comfortable with...and it worked. I simply started by saying, in my head, "Okay. I know I have someone with me helping to guide me through this mess. Please help me to feel the Source energy flowing through me and please help me to know I am not alone. I can handle this if I let the energy flow through me. Source is/has unlimited strength and goodness and bright/light energy. I am a very tiny and humble expression of Source, therefore I must have access to that strength and energy. Please let me feel as much as I can, as much as I need. I know I have an angel with me, so, Angel, Higher Me, Beings of Light that want to help, I'm asking. Please let me be surrounded with bright, potent energy. Please let me know my family is surrounded, (and I named a few people I knew were going berzerk) and that they will be okay. I know they will be okay because they are surrounded with the most beautiful light I can imagine." I, in my head, expressed so much gratitude for all those who are with me and are helping me, thanked them for being here even though I don't know who they are and I don't see them or hear them.

And guess what?! All the goings on this evening that could have each been a catastrophe, peacefully went on their merry way(s). Now, I'm not going into details because that would be a novel, but I seemed to stand still while all the world was moving around me...and it went as well as it could have imo.

Hmmmm. I really like this. It isn't really fake it til you make it...it's more like practicing. I decided to be. I acknowledged that I was feeling anxious, stomach doing looptyloops, head hurting. I didn't question why. I didn't get frustrated. I didn't own anyone else's drama...and I didn't give it life.

I share all this because there are times when I really don't understand the process when someone suggests it. So, I figure, if I'm a little fuzzy on how to do something, maybe someone who visits the Village after me might able to see what worked for me...and maybe it will help someone else, too.

Much Love to you all, my online family :)

Well thanks for sharing that.

I find a lot of people who turned their backs on their religious indoctrination, quite rightly, also sometimes turned their backs on some of the diamonds in the rough - the actual worthwhile bits of that "forced" learning. Turning ones back on all the "sin" and "guilt" and "fear" are probably great, but how many of us who went through this found we turned our backs on too much of it - even the good bits :)

I am reminded of this:
If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done. And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

I mean in modern times that last bit is "The Secret" right? (probably a bad example as that work itself has its debatable parts) Or what I usually refer to as manifestation, through the law of attraction.

Then I realise that this is how it is meant to be - we knew all along there would be challenges, but lets not forget the massive help we have along the way - just right there for the asking.

I think so long as we are doing and dont expect it to all get done for us, asking for help is valid, and I have never known a sincere request for aid be turned down with no real explanations.

Anchor.. I have been hearing good things about neem oil as a pesticide from folks that have been trying it out. It costs about $100 per 5 ltrs.

I read it this past Summer. Mainly in the Sun at our lake where I am for 6 months. I have a hard cover annotated version with copious side notes and many illustrations. Tolkien's own and ones from the releases around the world by artists of many countries. Reading it with the renditions of scenes as you read made for a very enjoyable 5th reading of it for me. I wanted to reread it in preparation for the theatrical release this coming December. Provided the Earth is still roughly the same. LOL

What a day in the Village.....Lisab I hope the lady is going to be ok....

Made the trek down the mtn and through traffic -am visiting with some friends on the coast. The slow moving storm made its way here raining and misty.
Had some bodywork done today and feeling pretty tired. Still not eating meat and taking the colloids and I have a raw foods smoothie once a day.....feeling sensitive; the body work helping to release toxins and energies out.

Love

And that, 1InMany, is the rhythm of 'already there'...and as Anchor's reply called out, we can indeed move mountains when riding a higher wave in humility and gratitude and an 'allowing and decisive' action of being in the present bringing in the light...we are the ultimate conduits/antennas in these changing times and, imho, exactly why many of us are here...to simply step into it and help step it up : )
Everyone has their role...and when things happen so smoothly that it, well, astonishes us...we somehow just know the 'higher connections' are right there with us helping the moments in front of us become all-empowering for all that are there...wherever they happen to personally be in their own transitions.

Nora, hope your toxins move along smoothly. Have fun with your friends.

Meeradas, try fixing your salt bag so it's soft ... it should be pliable enough to mold to the shape of your neck. I love the idea of salt for this, new to me... I used to make similar using whole dried corn (the kind used in horse feed) which is also wonderful.... corn has soothing properties. I sewed a little bag and measured the corn so the bag had the right amount. Some use wheat berries.

Mark, lovely to see you online. I hope you are improving.

Lisa, my loving thoughts to you and your friend. Thank you for sharing with us.

John, sorry about the lace bugs... yes, it was a chrysanthemum and not a daisy now that you say it. That's pricey all right. There's a certain one that has a higher percentage of pyrethrin, and I'll bet they would grow as wildflowers if you started them on your property. An easy source ... plants release their constituents easily into water, so you could harvest the flower heads and dry them, then make a strong 'tea' as needed.

Love to all the village,
Marianne

[Marianne]

Spiritual awakening ... am finding it wonderful in many ways, but some of it's hard to adjust to. Like, I no longer have an interest in what I used to do. Don't want to shop or buy anything except the bare necessities. Hobbies I used to have, I've lost keen interest in. Not even interested in going out to eat, food as a social event isn't fun anymore. My job, oh my... just can hardly stand to be there anymore. Working on how to deal with that. I break into sobs suddenly for no apparent reason, and sometimes with a reason, as a release. This is so different from the way I used to be. Dream recall is returning to me, for which I'm so grateful.

The only thing I want now is interaction with my family and loved ones. Growing and learning. Doing the shadow work (slowly, as Ulli advises). Learning to call on angels and guides, as I used to many years ago. Learning to be strong within myself.

I like the village.

Feel that my life has been turned up and shaken well. Am trying to keep faith that all will be good in the end.

Love,
Marianne

update: And then, there are the moments of feeling newly alive. There's a huge lightning/thunderstorm going on this morning. Standing on the back deck just now, with lightning flashing in the sky, I feel all is as it should be. Lots of fear is gone.

Falling snow in grey skies this morning, tiny flakes that seem to be piling up quickly. The forecast is for 4-6 inches in my area...not much, but enough to cause a few driving problems. Would love to stay snug and cozy inside, but have to play a wedding this afternoon in the thick of the storm...hope all goes well and everyone stays safe.

Brought my microwave oven to the dump years ago after learning what microwaving does to food and people. For those unaware of the dangers, some good information at this site: http://www.relfe.com/microwave.html

I read a book by Greg Braden in which he tells the story of going with a native american friend of his to "pray rain" during a drought in New Mexico...not to pray FOR rain, but pray rain. In it, he followed his friend to a place that was 'sacred ground' to him; and once there, it took but a minute or so when his friend said he was done and they headed back to town. His friend told him that when you pray FOR something, you imply lack...in praying rain, he saw it raining in his mind, heard the patter of rain on the ground, smelled the fragrance of it, could feel its cool drops upon him. Sounded like the law of attraction, but somehow different. Now where did I put that book?

Can we ever be finished with all the shadow work in our lives? Or do I just have that much junk to clear out? Been at it for the better part of twenty years, and situations still arise that need work. Like in everything else, I don't go looking for it...it presents itself to me, mostly when I least expect it...and it takes as long as it takes to integrate/clear it. I'm not sure how one could hurry it...although I must say I long for the day when all the work is done and I am totally integrated, and free and clear of all my shadows.

So crazy this week, with snow storms, ice storms, now lots of rain with flooding predicted! Grateful we are up a little higher so we don't have to deal with flooding! Now wind storms are headed our way! I hope not more power outages! Three of my beautiful 28 year old red bud trees suffered damage, large broken branches! Over a foot of slushy snow in my driveway. Got stuck and knocked over my recycle bin! Luckily Ridgeline gets around pretty good.

I managed to go out to an awesome estate sale and find lots of vintage items for this vintage body! I think I must had a past life in the Victorian era as I have recurring dreams of being in old houses loaded with antiques. Estate sales, tag sales, thrift stores are a treasure hunt for me. My heart gets racing, a very fun thing to do with my two daughters as they both got hooked on the adrenalin rush yesterday! Can't wait to see what the day holds for me, life is so ever changing. I am enjoying the ride, challenges as they be here in the Great Pacific Northwest! I hope all of you are too! CAW!

Just yesterday I was pining after those fun days. At one estate sale in England right at the end they held up a box which was called "Lucky dip", and I bid on it without knowing what was inside but I was feeling adventurous.
When I opened it there were pieces of metallic lace, unlike any I had ever seen before, and a pair of white gloves, which had ER ll embroidered on the cuffs, in beads so fine that you needed a magnifying glass to recognize it was bead work.
They had belonged to the Queen of England.
In Barbados during the eighties I started going to plantation house sales. I became so addicted that I opened an antique shop just to have a place for storing everything.
The biggest disappointment of coming to Costa Rica was that here this kind of thing does not exist. I still have a lot of my West Indian mahogany furniture from back then...can't sell it here at all.
I would just love to jump back into the adrenaline pool of estate sales.
Ohhh the fun I had....At the and of the day organizing a truck to take all those goodies I had purchased to my store and then arrange everything in an attractive way....driving myself way beyond exhaustion.
I loved everything about it. I would even give up the Village for it...that's to show you how addicted I am to that scene.

He put that into one of his dvds too. Very cool scene. Don't remember the title as I lent it to a friend whose wife was fighting with some serious cancer. Dvd had another scene where some healers from China were able to dissolve a cancer tumor shown with ultrasound in only about 3 minutes.




We finally have some decent cloud cover nice dark thick clouds.. but we never get rain anymore,(Austin Texas) we are dry as a bone here, plz help and pray for rain

According to an American Indian who appeared on one of the Gregg Braden dvds, the way to do it is FEEL with all the emotion you can muster the GRATITUDE for the rain and FEEL it dropping down upon you.

Not a "asking for something to happen" ... EXPERIENCE it happening to you in the MOMENT and being GRATEFUL from the heart.

Use as many of your senses to the greatest degree possible. SMELL the fresh scent of rain in the air. HEAR the sounds of rain hitting the ground.

You get the idea.

:rain:

PS - if you get a flood contact Gregg. Don't shoot the messenger. :stop:

Thanks, dear Crow, I might take you up on that offer even though you are rather a long way away.
The ideal way to do an antiques biz in the US is doing the buying at sales in Florida, like Tampa, Clearwater, St.Petersburg. Many of the retirees who live there, when they leave this world find their children have zero interest in their antiques. So they just put all the stuff into estate sales. As the market is being flooded the prices are really low there.
Then you get a van and sell in a big city, like Atlanta, GA, where the money is.
That won't make you a fortune, but $2000 to $3000 a month would be possible. And who needs more than that?

Mornin peeps, need a little help here. At astro.com I found some information on saturn square mercury. I googled it, and there are too many different interpretations for me to be able to make sense of what that means. Mostly, the explanations are extremely negative, and I don't like that because nothing is all negative. Any suggestions?

Much Love,

[Ernie Nemeth]

Hi everybody.

Would like to reply to about a dozen comments here but, hey, it's the thought that counts.

Spent yesterday in transit. Took buses, subway, more buses and more subway. Did not get home till after ten. Estimates, all over the greater Toronto area (GTA). Landed one for sure, prolly the other two will call and confirm during the weekend. One is a connection to a whole lot more work as he is a tradesman (heating/cooling) too. So all's good.

Reading a book I got for Christmas from my ex, Shantaram. About an escaped convict from AUS that finds his way to Bombay (Mumbai) and lives in the slums where he makes a name for himself. Very good read. Reminds me a lot of my own life these past eight years, living in the, not worst, but pretty depressed area of TO. I've seen shootings, muggings, beatings, riots - all sorts of nasty stuff. But, that is just on the surface. I also made a name for myself and people would seek me out for spiritual help and cleansing. I got quite a name for myself. I could go where others feared to tread, in perfect safety and peace. Until one day, a crazed individual beat up both my good friends and I had a lapse and put the guy in the hospital for his travesty. A few days later he came and appologized (his head was all bandaged and he had a noticable limp), but he also sent two thugs to get even with me. I deflected their animosity by buying them drinks until they were nice and drunk, then I slipped away unnoticed. Soon after, I took me and my woman and moved out of the area. I hear people ask after me to this day. But my heart is not in that space anymore.
What made me share that, here and now, I wonder? Oh yeah, the book I'm reading. The point is that people who have nothing to loose are usually the ones with the biggest hearts, and will give of themselves above and beyond what moneyed people would even dream of. There is a lesson there I think I need to learn.

Really cold here, tomorrow it will be twenty degrees (C) warmer! Imagine, such a swing in 24 hours.

Best and warmest regards to the village.

Oh dear! I thought it had to be something like that when you shared yesterday.
I'm already soooo not looking forward to my next Saturn Mercury square, wondering how to protect myself in advance. One never knows exactly what it will bring.
It's a real bummer, if you ask me. It's pure lessons time...negative negative negative, especially if you are a feelie person.

But boy, when it's over- the relief is amazing. And you will be surprised at yourself as you found out that you had an inner authority that you never thought existed.
But your survival depended on it and also that of loved ones. It's about the discovery that some things and people are best let go of.
You may not like to be harsh, or thought of as harsh, but that's what Saturn wants you to learn now.
You can go back to being your normal gentle self as soon as it's over, but for the time being a certain degree of reserve, even aversion will serve you well.
Put your foot down, and make two fists, and place them firmly on your hips with your elbows sticking out.

Hi everybody.

Would like to reply to about a dozen comments here but, hey, it's the thought that counts.

Spent yesterday in transit. Took buses, subway, more buses and more subway. Did not get home till after ten. Estimates, all over the greater Toronto area (GTA). Landed one for sure, prolly the other two will call and confirm during the weekend. One is a connection to a whole lot more work as he is a tradesman (heating/cooling) too. So all's good.

Reading a book I got for Christmas from my ex, Shantaram. About an escaped convict from AUS that finds his way to Bombay (Mumbai) and lives in the slums where he makes a name for himself. Very good read. Reminds me a lot of my own life these past eight years, living in the, not worst, but pretty depressed area of TO. I've seen shootings, muggings, beatings, riots - all sorts of nasty stuff. But, that is just on the surface. I also made a name for myself and people would seek me out for spiritual help and cleansing. I got quite a name for myself. I could go where others feared to tread, in perfect safety and peace. Until one day, a crazed individual beat up both my good friends and I had a lapse and put the guy in the hospital for his travesty. A few days later he came and appologized (his head was all bandaged and he had a noticable limp), but he also sent two thugs to get even with me. I deflected their animosity by buying them drinks until they were nice and drunk, then I slipped away unnoticed. Soon after, I took me and my woman and moved out of the area. I hear people ask after me to this day. But my heart is not in that space anymore.
What made me share that, here and now, I wonder? Oh yeah, the book I'm reading. The point is that people who have nothing to loose are usually the ones with the biggest hearts, and will give of themselves above and beyond what moneyed people would even dream of. There is a lesson there I think I need to learn.

Really cold here, tomorrow it will be twenty degrees (C) warmer! Imagine, such a swing in 24 hours.

Best and warmest regards to the village.

Hmmm, and I'm reading Phases of Gravity, by Dan Simmons, about a former astronaut who had walked on the moon, and now has to go to India to find his son who had followed some guru.
Coincidentally I was just now reading about his experiences of the slums of Calcutta.

"Basti, chawl, whatever the Calcuttans called it, it was the ultimate slum. Stretching for miles along the railroad tracks, the maze of tin-roofed shacks and gunnysacks tents was penetrated only by a few winding paths which served as both streets and sewers.
The density of people was almost beyond belief. Children were everywhere, defecating in doorways, chasing each other between huts, and following Baedecker with the light-footed hop of the shy and the barefoot.
Women looked away as Baedecker passed, and pulled up the cloth of their saris to cover their faces. Men stared with open curiosity verging on hostility. Mothers squatted behind their children, intent on pulling lice from matted hair. Little girls crouched next to old women and kneaded cow dung with their hands, shaping it into properly sized patties for fuel..."
.etc..it gets worse
So, what can I say?
And we here at Avalon want to organize the planet, after we saved it from the PTB.(W)
I guess Modwiz has made the right start, at least he is living in a tent already.
And Astrid knows all about starvation already....
This is the way to go about it...there is no other way.

I'm reminded of Onawah's dentures story. When the people have lost all their stuff, how are they going to feel? Grateful!

I have worked since I was 14 in an ice cream shop during summers in High School up until 2 years ago in the graphic arts. I was then forced into an early retirement due to big corporate restructuring. Since then I have sent out countless resumes to no avail. Out with the older higher paid employee and in with the younger set that will work for less kind of thing going on in today's business world.

I have decided to do what I love to do, to young for Social Security, and I must keep busy. Momma always said busy hands are happy hands! Ulli, if I could make 2 to 3k a month I would be happy. Just enough for a comfortable living. My goal is not to buy anything new this year, they just made things better way back when. No Walmart for me! Find things I can sell in a click store and dream of opening a brick store someday! A little motivation from S.Jobs Better late than never!!! Caw!

Oh dear! I thought it had to be something like that when you shared yesterday.
I'm already soooo not looking forward to my next Saturn Mercury square, wondering how to protect myself in advance. One never knows exactly what it will bring.
It's a real bummer, if you ask me. It's pure lessons time...negative negative negative, especially if you are a feelie person.

But boy, when it's over- the relief is amazing. And you will be surprised at yourself as you found out that you had an inner authority that you never thought existed.
But your survival depended on it and also that of loved ones. It's about the discovery that some things and people are best let go of.
You may not like to be harsh, or thought of as harsh, but that's what Saturn wants you to learn now.
You can go back to being your normal gentle self as soon as it's over, but for the time being a certain degree of reserve, even aversion will serve you well.

I don't know what to say to that. That's awful. Astro.com says that's for the longterm...how in the hell am I going to survive that? And I'm already thinking that based on that, this young man was the wrong way to go.

Eegads.

Is "Saturn square Mercury" the same as "Mercury square Saturn"?

[eaglespirit]

I will confirm living with nothing(no material attachment) can gather everything(all that we need).
And I can deliver this confirmation...because that is all I have been experiencing the past five years.
It has been an unbelievable ride and I could not have or would not have 'delivered' this without personal experience.

And we truly are provided for when we do the things we are prompted and we 'inner' know we are capable of and the help will be there,

I am going to slow down on my posts of proclamations but the 'wows' of synchronicity that keep happening keep me sharing at here and now.

Just went to look at a used truck to purchase privately about 25 minutes away that was just set up this morn by phone after having already been looking for a few days and had found one 2 1/2 hours away but the snow slowed that connection down as the seller plows. Now there are gifts that I have received because I did not have that much reserve cash on hand and I was doing my best to keep the cost reasonable and the gifter actually offered a new truck to me and I just could not go that way. Well, I just came from the home of the current truck I found at 1/2 the cost of the original used one I found and that is not the half of it because the owner is selling it for his Dad that is retired and that owner is living on a beautiful pond just over the canal that has intense Indian rhythm and that has been his and his wife's home for 20 years and he was given a picture of the pond when he was young that he loved and had no idea he would be living in a house later in life that has that exact same view from the backyard. Now...I went to look at a truck and test drive it, mind you, and what ensued was a 10% talk time on the truck and a 90% talk time on sharing blips of our lives and happenings and current going ons and well it was so beautiful and intense in a 'light' way that I could write a couple pages on the occurrence. Parallel life happenings and experiences and well...you all know the rest of the story : ) There was a hand shake and a hug when I left and the truck is secondary and our meeting person to person was primary.
It all just keeps coming and coming and coming...
This is going to happen to everybody listening this year more and more and more...
Love! Love! Love!

The influence is the same, but the time scale is very different. Saturn square Mercury lasts longer but happens far less often.

Mercury square Saturn means the angle that moving Mercury is making to the position Saturn occupied in your birth chart is a right angle...90 degrees. The energy flow has to make a hard corner, hence it's flow is hampered.
Since Mercury is a fast-moving planet this causes little upset...just one or two down days, where communication (Mercury) is affected due to Saturn's restrictive and blocking influence.

On the other hand Saturn square Mercury can last between 2 weeks and two months. Right now Saturn is sitting on the last degree of Libra, having come to a stop, before slowly going retrograde over the coming weeks. So if your natal Mercury is at 29 Cancer you can expect this influence to last until mid February. What degree exactly is your Mercury at? 27, 28, or 29?
If you direct your mind (ruled by Mercury) to Saturnian things now, and do so consciously, the negative effect will be diminished. What Gurdjieff called "voluntary suffering" ...as you yourself accept and and control it the suffering feels diminished. Also you know to what end it is happening and can therefore be more accepting.

[modwiz]

Provided the Earth is still roughly the same. LOL

*Guffaw!*
I note that the release is 14th December. So yes, Gandalf, you'll have time... just ;)
After reading it 5 times, are you really sure you want to see the film adaptation?

Peter Jackson and all of the others involved with these films are Tolkien lovers. The ways they play with storylines is fine with me and most of the other LOTR fans. So yes, I look forward to viewing the film adaptation.

BC,

Love-love-love your post!! A perfect sync today. Go for the antique-vintage thingy for yourself! I love Victorian things too, prob not to the same degree as you but adore the look and lovely lifestyle Victorian evokes. A simpler time.

I am struggling with my job and hope to leave it soon. It's a hard decision because if I stay 3 1/2 more years, I'll have 10 years in and would get a small retirement. I've stayed this long because of it... but something in me won't let me do it anymore. There's something else for me, and feels like I won't find it until I step away from the old into a void. Hard to do, but harder still would be to stay.

Eaglespirit, your have the most amazing stories! Please keep sharing them, the more the better... no one gets weary of hearing great stuff like that. You are a living example of how we can be, what we are moving towards.

I'm missing Nora ... she's having fun with her friends.

1, hang in there. You can do it!

Love,
Marianne

[modwiz]

Falling snow in grey skies this morning, tiny flakes that seem to be piling up quickly. The forecast is for 4-6 inches in my area...not much, but enough to cause a few driving problems. Would love to stay snug and cozy inside, but have to play a wedding this afternoon in the thick of the storm...hope all goes well and everyone stays safe.

Brought my microwave oven to the dump years ago after learning what microwaving does to food and people. For those unaware of the dangers, some good information at this site: http://www.relfe.com/microwave.html

I read a book by Greg Braden in which he tells the story of going with a native american friend of his to "pray rain" during a drought in New Mexico...not to pray FOR rain, but pray rain. In it, he followed his friend to a place that was 'sacred ground' to him; and once there, it took but a minute or so when his friend said he was done and they headed back to town. His friend told him that when you pray FOR something, you imply lack...in praying rain, he saw it raining in his mind, heard the patter of rain on the ground, smelled the fragrance of it, could feel its cool drops upon him. Sounded like the law of attraction, but somehow different. Now where did I put that book?

Can we ever be finished with all the shadow work in our lives? Or do I just have that much junk to clear out? Been at it for the better part of twenty years, and situations still arise that need work. Like in everything else, I don't go looking for it...it presents itself to me, mostly when I least expect it...and it takes as long as it takes to integrate/clear it. I'm not sure how one could hurry it...although I must say I long for the day when all the work is done and I am totally integrated, and free and clear of all my shadows.

I am thinking that there will always be some form of shadow maintenance because of ego, even in the most positive of ways. The only way there will be no shadow is if you are completely centered and still, being the light. As soon as you move into something other than complete light, you create an angle to it. However slight the angle is, a shadow will result. Awareness of this is the 'work', which is not really work unless one finds being aware, 'work'. Furthermore, the quality and content of the shadow can be very acceptable. It just seems that certain energies find a safe haven in shadows and will then lend their qualities to them. Knowing thyself is a great asset here because what is 'not you' will be perceived. So shadow awareness will always be a part of having any sort of ego. I do not find that fact a problem. Since I refer to my ego as my dog, keeping it clean allows for 'it' to get patted on the head and called, "good dog". It likes that.

This post is based in the semi-mythic psychological land of having dealt with all of ones inner wounds and traumas. I have found the understanding and application of true forgiveness is the best way to deal with the villages of wounded ego fragments that can populate our shadows. This forgiveness is a two way street, if not a super highway.

[ulli]

ulli and her ego.

I love my ego!

[Lisab]

That's funny because sometimes if my ego gets a bit much, I'l say in my mind "down ego down!" But yes I give it a pat too. Lovely pic Ulli.

[Marianne]

Agape started a thread with a link to the nicest place on the internet. I have it on now, hugs galore. Gotta smile!

http://thenicestplaceontheinter.net/

Ulli, love the picture.

I remember a dream I had years ago, of my shadow. It was before I even knew what a shadow was. But the dream made a profound impact on me, and that's when I found out what it was. I lived in a big two-storey house in northern Vermont, doing lots of creative work,writing and giving art lessons to children and in school... no TV, small children, a very nice time but no time/inclination for introspection of darker things. Had this dream of a beautiful but very scruffy and dirty young man, with a beard and wild hair. I saw him near the window, he slipped out and was hanging around the outside eaves, not wanting me to see him. He was devastatingly shy and wounded.

[meeradas]

He put that into one of his dvds too. Very cool scene. Don't remember the title as I lent it to a friend whose wife was fighting with some serious cancer. Dvd had another scene where some healers from China were able to dissolve a cancer tumor shown with ultrasound in only about 3 minutes.

That should be "the lost mode of prayer", Cal.

[ViralSpiral]

GORGEOUS pic Ulli
I love your ego too :)

Ok,finally i take the Tarot and "see" which road is taken Here and Now... It's very synthetic.

http://yanarasunluz77.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/kt-tarottab.png

Three cards: TOWER XVI... breaking walls, egos, earthquakes , seen the unseen finally now
TEMPERANCE XIV... equilibrium, balance on the village, little adjustment
HIEROPHANT- the Pope... consulting or "channeling" in a high rate. Good source
or multisource, everyone talks and finally going at the same step.

The Role of Ulli... The World XXI. Control of everything, good work, smooth work.
The MAGICIAN I. All the same as above. Skills to "rule" the village.
The JUSTICE XI. Balance, impartiality, grat vision all over,separation of one- self and make non-judgmental views

A Game, the villagers....

Ulli- The Fool I. (Liberty, free of spirit, the dog is the ego.... ha, ha. Uranus)

Modwiz- The Hanged Man XII (see the world upside down, see the truth. Neptune)

Calz- The Force VIII. (diplomacy)

Eaglespirit- The Judgment XX. (Awarness, wake up... fly :))

Carmody - The High Priestess. ( Subconscience, Moon, equilibrium, sephirot, only the chosen ones can acced to the wisdom)

Nora- The Lovers VI. (choices, decisions. Take the right path or field. )

Lisab- The Moon XVIII. (Subconscience, Piscis... :)... work with your fears. good card, yes)

Marianne- The Chariot VII. ( Starting a new journey)

Astrid- The Death XIII. (Starting to see a new Astrid)

Meeradas- The Empress III. ( Venus. Imagination, art, being pregnant of new ideas moment after moment)

ViralSpiral- The Ermit IX ( Self study, recharge energy, "be in the middle", justice, stop the time)

1Many- The Emperor IV (Information, capacity to control the situations, the king)

Ernie Nemeth- The Devil XV (be aware of his own limits, walls, fears and be aware that they are only mental constructions, break the chains)

Benevolentcrow- The Sun XIX. (Energy, liberty, open like a child to new boundaries, no fear)

Newlyn- The Star XIV. (Changes, connections, Sirio, balance of karma)

Write4achange- The World XXI. (Stable situation, wait, rest for the news events)

9eagle9- The Justice XI- (Justice above all! :) the Damocles sword above others and above oneself too)

...Dan33- The Wheel of Fortune X. (Duality, 4 elements, luck, energy circling , spheres.... the most dificult to interpret in the atmosphere of the thread.....me......i coluld say Las Vegas or Casino ...ha)

That was a game, and Tarot is a game too, serious game.
Each card is a chip or pen drive with all the information an energy about astrology, tree of life, archetypes...
Sorry about the people i forget.

Un beso a todos .... and to John and Jenny from CNN News :)

[dan33]

..also there was game too. Where am I on the Map?

Ulli is above all. The Fool.
1Many(IV) is between Meeradass(III) and Nora (VI). Nobody is on the Pope (V).

1, it's also possible to transcend or at least minimize the astro influences .
For one you can make things so much worse by freaking out and going into
fearThe danger is it can all become self fulfilling and you will tie yourself
in knots worrying . I will go back to my post on emotional processing
which is a way, my way of dealing with the shadow.
What that looks like when you do it, is things flow through you much
more easily and quickly, you don't dwell overly on things nor create dramas.
The result being calm when things are tough and you are more riding
through things than feeling like the energies are controlling you.
Staying in the present is also crucial to making things easier for yourself .
And focusing on the positives in every situations. Even when things are
at their darkest the positives are that you are learning your greatest
lessons and will grow like never before.

It's all growth all of it , and you always have a choice how to respond
to what is in front of you here lies your power.
You can freak out and turn things into an even bigger mountain
or you can get into your feeling self when it hits you and work
out processing that so it moves through you. That way you still have
the issue but no freak outs, just a calm head to work out how to
respond to it. Your fight or flight brain, the one that freaks out
and goes into survival mode when activated stops our higher human
mind from working at all , in short we just can't make good choices
when we are in freak out mode .
Saturn is a great teacher, everything is slowed down so you can
take a very good hard look at your life . It's a big self learning time,
I have had a few people I'm working with going through Saturn transits
recently so i understand the angst . I found the best way to help them
was to help keep them aware but out of fear, and to always look at
things from true big picture learning perspective .
I hope some of this make sense.
I personally think Saturn gets a bad wrap. If you wanting to learn and
grow and evolve your soul Saturn is an excellent teacher .
Tough love, sure but these are not lessons you ever forget .

1in Many you are exactly where you need to be. doing exactly what
you need to be doing even if it doesn't seem that way now .
When you look back you will see it better
Keep sharing here between us you have loads of guidance
on hand, but this is also an excellent time to get to know
your own personal guidance better, they are just waiting
for you to call on them .

Hugs
Astrid

Dan, thank you for that. And yes, I always pick the Fool for myself, my favorite card.
My role in the Here and Now Thread...those three cards you picked are also very accurate, I must say.
All the others are pretty spot-on as well, but most of all Modwiz as the Hanged Man...
he would agree with that...as a typical Uranian he sees things the way they really are, upside down.
The whole world is upside down and back to front.

[Marianne]

Dan33,

That's quite a tarot spread you did. Thanks. It will be interesting to see if others feel their cards are significant for them.

The Chariot ... I have never drawn that one for myself. I got some interp for it online. Interesting about the journey by car. If I leave my job soon, I'll be going by car up north in mid February. Leaving my job would be the start of a new journey, figuratively and literally.

Confidence as well as unity of purpose and control is needed, and, most especially, motivation. The card can, in fact, indicate new motivation or inspiration, which gets a stagnant situation moving again. It can also imply, on a more pragmatic level, a trip (usually by car).

The querent who gets this card is likely dealing with a lot of contradictions in their life. Maybe arguing people, or a variety of different feelings. The card says that they must become the driver of the chariot. They must decide on a goal, take control and get all the contradictions to ignore their wants and go where the querent wants.

How can the querent do this? By being confident. The one who has unwavering faith in their convictions is the one who can make others put aside their differences and do as asked. Likewise, such a person can overcome their doubts and uncertainties and achieve victory.

The Chariot is a marvelous card in that it can assure the querent success no matter the odds. But the card also warns that the drive toward this victory might lead to ruthless, diehard behavior, to a desire to win at any cost. The querent should be reminded that winning isn't everything nor "the only thing." It is, rather, the start of things.

Here now there is nothing like enjoying a really great glass of Merlot and some wonderful Bach. The smell of the wine, like flowers on the wind, the way it rolls in your mouth activating every taste bud and the tingle it leaves on the bitter recieving buds and then watching it drip slowly down the sides of the glass, like think molasses. Acompanied by a wonderious book, such as "Way of the Bull" or the one i am now reading "The Prophet" by Gibran. ill get back to you all on this book I have heard alot about it. Good night to you all.

Love you all

[astrid]

Dan very very cool spread there, you are becoming our
resident Tarot expert. I'm really enjoying reading your posts.

The Death card i have pulled many times, especially in the last year,
and yes, totally relate. It was actually a Tarot reading that i had about
12 months ago that gave me a real heads up. I didn't much like change,
and i was told to get ready for LOTS of it, so i had been working really
hard to do just that.

Even the dismemberment that Louis went through on Friday,
him being an aspect of me, was all about death and re birthing a
stronger self. Right now things are really like "holy crap" for me,
In a good way, but the speed of growth is almost getting
silly. I have of course been asking for this, and for a long time
so I'm not sure why I'm surprised. Maybe i just never felt like i was
going to get there as it has all been such a freaking long time coming.

I keep poking at things with a stick to make sure it actually real, lol.

I joined a Shamanic forum a while back and i have been reading through it
over the weekend, I was interested to see there was drama and in fighting,
over " my god is better than your god" type of stuff, which is very very odd,
as Shamanism is all about your spirit teachers teaching you, what they say goes.
So that was a bit disappointing to see, i always watch and listen before i bother to
engage saves me lots of time energy, again, lazy libran likes to only act when she
knows that acting is for a darn good reason.

This page says it all as far as I am concerned and your reading...that hill happening in '07 made me do, in the extreme, just what is laid out in the link so that I may help others in my life with what they are ready to face and move on and up and do the same things if they so choose as a progressive happening of growth and awareness...this is the year. The fool and, of course, the sun are deeply woven in my journey here on earth.

Thank You

Dan33,

That's quite a tarot spread you did. Thanks. It will be interesting to see if others feel their cards are significant for them.

The Chariot ... I have never drawn that one for myself. I got some interp for it online. Interesting about the journey by car. If I leave my job soon, I'll be going by car up north in mid February. Leaving my job would be the start of a new journey, figuratively and literally.

Confidence as well as unity of purpose and control is needed, and, most especially, motivation. The card can, in fact, indicate new motivation or inspiration, which gets a stagnant situation moving again. It can also imply, on a more pragmatic level, a trip (usually by car).

The querent who gets this card is likely dealing with a lot of contradictions in their life. Maybe arguing people, or a variety of different feelings. The card says that they must become the driver of the chariot. They must decide on a goal, take control and get all the contradictions to ignore their wants and go where the querent wants.

How can the querent do this? By being confident. The one who has unwavering faith in their convictions is the one who can make others put aside their differences and do as asked. Likewise, such a person can overcome their doubts and uncertainties and achieve victory.

The Chariot is a marvelous card in that it can assure the querent success no matter the odds. But the card also warns that the drive toward this victory might lead to ruthless, diehard behavior, to a desire to win at any cost. The querent should be reminded that winning isn't everything nor "the only thing." It is, rather, the start of things.

Take The Chariot, see it and enter in, feeling that you are the charachter, feel the weight of the armor, the smell of the Sphinx .... make a magic circle With Your fingers like a laser, in the direction of the clock. Will change your voice:) It depends on how energy you "put" or try, it works better ... But it works.

Go off the card making the inverse movement With Your Fingers. Let rest the subconscious.
A game, but serious game. :) every card is a world, with an egregor of thousand of years.
Like a videogame, there are shortcuts, hidden places, bridges... in every card.

The intention, the energy you "put in"... i remember The Mists of Avalon, the Prologue of Morgana..... marvelous. If i find, i'll post it.

THE MISTS OF AVALON

Prologue

Morgaine speaks...

In my time I have been called many things: sister, lover, priestess, wise-woman, queen. Now in truth I have come to be wise-woman, and a time may come when these things may need to be known. But in sober truth, I think it is the Christians who will tell the last tale. For ever the world of Fairy drifts further from the world in which the Christ holds sway. I have no quarrel with the Christ, only with his priests, who call the Great Goddess a demon and deny that she ever held power in this world. At best, they say that her power was of Satan. Or else they clothe her in the blue robe of the Lady of Nazareth -- who indeed had power in her way, too -- and say that she was ever virgin. But what can a virgin know of the sorrows and travail of mankind? And now, when the world has changed, and Arthur -- my brother, my lover, king who was and king who shall be -- lies dead (the common folk say sleeping) in the Holy Isle of Avalon, the tale should be told as it was before the priests of the White Christ came to cover it all with their saints and legends. For, as I say, the world itself has changed. There was a time when a traveller, if he had the will and knew only a few of the secrets, could send his barge out into the Summer Sea and arrive not at Glastonbury of the monks, but at the Holy Isle of Avalon; for at that time the gates between the worlds drifted within the mists, and were open, one to another, as the traveller thought and willed. For this is the great secret, which was known to all educated men in our day: that by what men think, we create the world around us, daily new. And now the priests, thinking that this infringes upon the power of their God, who created the world once and for all to be unchanging, have closed those doors (which were never doors, except in the minds of men), and the pathway leads only to the priests' Isle, which they have safeguarded with the sound of their church bells, driving away all thoughts of another world lying in the darkness. Indeed, they say that world, if it indeed exists, is the property of Satan, and the doorway to Hell, if not Hell itself. I do not know what their God may or may not have created. In spite of the tales that are told, I never knew much about their priests and never wore the black of one of their slave-nuns. If those at Arthur's court at Camelot chose to think me so when I came there (since I always wore the dark robes of the Great Mother in her guise as wise-woman), I did not undeceive them. And indeed, toward the end of Arthur's reign it would have been dangerous to do so, and I bowed my head to expediency as my great mistress would never have done: Viviane, Lady of the Lake, once Arthur's greatest friend, save for myself, and then his darkest enemy -- again, save for myself. But the strife is over; I could greet Arthur at last, when he lay dying, not as my enemy and the enemy of my Goddess, but only as my brother, and as a dying man in need of the Mother's aid, where all men come at last. Even the priests know this, with their ever-virgin Mary in her blue robe; for she too becomes the World Mother in the hour of death. And so Arthur lay at last with his head in my lap, seeing in me neither sister nor lover nor foe, but only wise-woman, priestess, Lady of the Lake; and so rested upon the breast of the Great Mother from whom he came to birth and to whom at last, as all men, he must go. And perhaps, as I guided the barge which bore him away, not this time to the Isle of the Priests, but to the true Holy Isle in the dark world behind our own, that Island of Avalon where, now, few but I could go, he repented the enmity that had come between us.
As i tell this tale I will speak at times of things which befell when I was too young to understand them, or of things which befell when I was not by; and my hearer will draw away, perhaps, and say: This is her magic. But I have always held the gift of the Sight, and of looking within the minds of men and women; and in all this time I have been close to all of them. And so, at times, all that they thought was known to me in one way or another. And so I will tell this tale. For one day the priests too will tell it, as it was known to them. Perhaps between the two, some glimmering of the truth may be seen. For this is the thing the priests do not know, with their One God and One Truth: that there is no such thing as a true tale. Truth has many faces and the truth is like to the old road to Avalon; it depends on your own will, and your own thoughts, whither the road will take you, and whether, at the end, you arrive in the Holy Isle of Eternity or among the priests with their bells and their death and their Satan and Hell and damnation... but perhaps I am unjust even to them. Even the Lady of the Lake, who hated a priest's robe as she would have hated a poisonous viper, and with good cause too, chid me once for speaking evil of their God. "For all the Gods are one God," she said to me then, as she had said many times before, and as I have said to my own novices many times, and as every priestess who comes after me will say again, "and all the Goddesses are one Goddess, and there is only one Initiator. And to every man his own truth, and the God within." And so, perhaps, the truth winds somewhere between the road to Glastonbury, Isle of the Priests, and the road to Avalon, lost forever in the mists of the Summer Sea. But this is my truth; I who am Morgaine tell you these things, Morgaine who was in later days called Morgan le Fay.

Anyhoo ... I thought I would bounce this one out here for everybody and see what they think.

Click to it—Going Sideways

Posted on January 21, 2012 by Stuart Wilde

If you stretch out your right arm and point, there is a celestial heaven world in that direction that I call “90-right”. It’s 90 degrees round the compass towards east if you are facing north.

I discovered some years ago that the higher your evolution or vibratory rate, the more of your etheric life force energy will be going sideways, this fact was later confirmed by other, especially, Khris Krepcik, he’s a top notch visionary in the world today.

A narrow person is dogmatic and usually stiff and angry, their rigidity affects their etheric protection, so they feel threatened by forces they can’t see.

When a person is very free and they have gone wide by say, meditating and letting go, and they are calm, their energy can 30-40 yards wide either side of them. A great sage or warrior lady might be several hundred miles wide to the right and the left. So let go.


12897
Merlin’s Light

Think of one thing you could drop today: a fight with your mother, irritations with a loved one, a bad habit, a silly fear that makes no sense, and/or a illogical rule you have imposed on yourself that restricts you.

Let things go, be fluid—come sideways and you’ll start to tap the heaven world that’s to your right.

Well, calz, I can't speak to a heaven being to your right. I simply don't know. But I agree that the energy fields are much wider around those who have let go, those who have become spiritually stronger and full of Source energy. :)

I will say, though, that it is on my right that I see things in my mind. There is a place-but-not-a-place that I describe once in a while that is sort of above me and to my right. And I also see in my mind, on my right but it would be lower than the place-but-not-a-place, that extends into vastness. I don't feel or sense or see with my mind anything on my left. Of course, that sounds like I've lost my mind, lol, and that doesn't really speak to the heaven on the right...but, in the mood to share so you got that. lol

Much Love,

[Calz]

Hey peeps. Gonna share this one with you. I have done this a couple times before and need to do it again. Last two times I tried my willpower waned so I am putting it out here to share and hopefully help make it happen.

Nothing as dramatic as what astrid shared with us ... but needs to be done.

Couple of weeks in the later half of February to coincide with Neptune/Pisces and a few other things.

The Lemonade Fast

By Khris Krepcik
Published: November 20, 2011

Posted in: The Method, The Public Writings

12898

I fasted for 12 days at the end of October and the beginning of November, going 12 days straight with absolutely no coffee, no food, no nothing, just a lemon-water drink—six times a day. I’ve always called it, “the Lemon-Water Fast”, but it’s also known as “the Lemonade Tea” or “the Master Cleanser”. I used to do the 3-day lemon-water fast, every now and then. The first time I did the full-on, 10-day Master Cleanser version was back in the 90’s. I never went back to eating red meat after that, and then eventually ditched white meats as well. It’s a good way to become vegetarian, if you’ve been having trouble doing so.

Most people can’t do 10 to 12 days of fasting, and I’m not necessarily recommending that you should, because that would depend on the individual person and their specific nutritional needs. You have total and complete responsibility for yourself and your own actions, and you have to do whatever is best for you. The funny thing is that what is best for you and what the ego wants are two totally different things. So, you always have to determine between whether you’re following what is best for you, or whether you are just following the laziness of your ego. Fasting challenges the ego, and the ego doesn’t like it. If you have never fasted before, then it’s best to try 3 days to build and develop the inner power it takes.

First and foremost, the Lemonade Fast is a deep physical cleanse. It cleans the crud out of your physical system. It’s way better and safer than a colon cleanse. Shoving strange stuff up the exit-only areas of your body is not natural, nor healthy. This more natural cleanse can also help you to lose weight—but you have to understand that you have to change your eating habits and lifestyle afterward—otherwise you’ll just put the weight back on. The Master Cleanse is not meant to perpetuate your eating habits and lifestyle, it’s meant to help you change your perpetual eating habits and lifestyle. It’s funny when people fail their diets and then blame the diet as being a failure. Well, it’s not the diet that fails. It’s the person that fails, when they fall back into the weakness of the ego, old habits, and lifestyles.

The Master Cleanser has been around for years, and there’s tons of info out there about the benefits and effects it has on the physical body. There’s tons of skeptical info out there, as well. So, I’ll leave that to you and not cover it here, but would rather cover the benefits and effects that the cleansing fast has on the emotional, mental, and spiritual energy levels.

Emotional energy builds and stores in the belly and stomach. Nothing calms emotion down faster than doing something physical, to where you simply focus on something, rather than dwelling in the churning of emotion and mind. Calming emotion isn’t necessarily processing emotion. In regards to the Lemonade Fast, it cleans everything out physically, along with whatever dark emotional energies have been storing up. Emotions may surface, because they have to, in order to be released. The amount of emotion you go through during the fast is directly related to how much unprocessed emotion you have. Don’t blame it on the fast, blame it on your unprocessed past. Look at things, process things, and let things go. Emotional energy can jump into your belly from others, so the cleanse also clears away stuff that you’ve absorbed from others that isn’t even yours. Constant purification is vital, especially if you’re in any healing-related field. But everyone absorbs the energies of others, so constant purification is vital for everyone.

When someone has too much unprocessed emotional energy, the first thing I tell them to do, is to get more exercise and to lose some weight, because people don’t necessarily understand how to process and transform their emotional energy. But your body and your energy are reflections of each other. Transform your body, and you transform your energy. Transform your energy, and you transform your body. Fasting is just another physical discipline that assists in the transformation of clearing emotion and mind.

The fastest way to make progress in developing inner power and perception is to silence the ego and the chattering inner dialogue of the mind. When you fast, it forces the ego and your chattering mind into a silence and stillness—serenity. The ego usually complains the first couple of days, but if you’re dedicated and don’t give in to the weakness of the ego, the ego realizes that you are serious and eventually shuts up. The ego goes quiet. The mind becomes calm and still. You become present in the eternal moment.

The real benefits of the Lemonade Fast are that, after you’ve silenced the ego, emotion, and mind, you begin to experience more energy. One would think that going 10 to 12 days without food would be a bit draining, but the digestion process actually slows your energy down, naturally. The heaviness of emotion and mind slows down your energy. As you clear things out of your digestive system, calm emotion, and silence the mind—your energy speeds up. Most people are in a constant state of digestion—once you’re not, it gives you an idea of what it actually feels like to vibrate faster, lighter, and brighter. Once you’ve experienced that lightness of being, you become more sensitive to anything that slows you down, and it is through that sensitivity that empowers you to eat things that are more healthy and natural, as well as eating in the proper amounts. More than anything, it’s about enhancing the quality of your energy.

The most fascinating thing about the Lemonade Fast, is that after 2 or 3 days—any etheric hits you’ve taken and have been suffering—fade away. If you’re not familiar with what etheric hits are, it’s basically the ability to sense the dark projections of people’s disdain and their pain. Such things actually hit you on an energy level, and they can actually be felt physically. Etheric hits cause knots in your muscles or a nausea in your stomach. The fast doesn’t stop such things from hitting, but it does speed up your energy to where you vibrate faster, and the etheric hits and artifacts burn away. Inner power has very little to do with the mind, and everything to do with being able to vibrate faster than anything projected at you.

The Lemonade drink is a mixture of freshly squeezed lemon juice, spring water, grade B maple syrup, and cayenne pepper. The fast involves going 10 days of drinking at least six, 10-ounce glasses of the lemonade, per day, along with a lax tea or mint tea in the evening, and absolutely no food. Then two days of drinking orange juice, with vegetable soup in the evening on the 11th and 12th days. You have to ween yourself back onto solid food, after not eating and living on nothing but liquids for so long. For the proper recipe and instructions, search the web for “Master Cleanse”.

Here and Now...went to the B.S. Banquet, and it was true to its name. What a freaking waste of time. All these egos gathered in one place...white russians kept me sane. I'm human, what can I say. This is one of the two or three times per year I drink anything alcoholic. As a matter of fact, I usually down a couple of beers while I'm drying my hair while I'm getting ready. I skipped that step because I forgot about it, and this thing was flat out boring...boring and irritating. Yep. Glad that's done.

Wondering about power animals atm. Someone told me my animal totem is/was a dragonfly. And researching that, it was spot on. But that isn't my spirit totem anymore, I know it somehow. So I went kind of looking around the internet, and was repeatedly asked the standard animal totem questions...which animal do you go to see every time you go to the zoo? Which animal has fascinated you all your life? Which animal would you like to have as a pet (to which my answer is, of course, none...) Which animal figurines do you/would you have around your house or collect? I keep coming up with elephant, giraffe, and angel. Isn't that funny! Angels aren't animals, but I have been attracted to them forever. Hmmm...

Much Love,

[Guest]

Hey JB. I'm here....

Still on the coast and the storm has passed another one is moving in.

And Dan ....very thoughtful of you.... The Lovers -I have some deep inner work to do.... And I do pull a few other cards a lot -they remain a mystery for now

Returned to the body worker today for a post check -sleep on it for a night and move out what I have neglected or packaged up and put in the closet eons ago.....feeling it and giving the emotions the recognition they desire and deserve....

Love

Nora

We are all related

Ya know what, Calz? I really appreciate you posting that master cleanse thing. I hear about people fasting all the time, and I have never understood the draw there. I always wonder how doing without food helps anything spiritually. Your post helps me to begin the process of understanding...which might lead, at some point, to choosing to fast myself. And...I would be more apt to drink a type of lemonade than many other things....so....thanks :)

Much Love,

Here and Now...venting...I ventured out into other threads, just an instant of losing my mind. I am reminded that there are people who say that good/bad(i.e. evil) don't exist. Well, of course they do. They exist because all things exist, and nothing exists. They are duality. In unity, it isn't that they don't exist, they do exist-they are integrated. It is kind of like this (I'm talking to myself here.) Source is. In source, all things are, including nothingness. Yes, there are benevolent and malevolent forces, they exist in the possibility of all ... in Source ... as all things exist.

End vent.

Oh, and yes...much love, :)

[astrid]

Fasting big time helped me with losing attachments,
and zoomed me ahead with my spiritual path.
But i think its something you have to prepare for, and
be ready for, in order to get the most out of it.

I have decided to do it twice a year, to bring in the
equinoxes, it seems to make sense. But then it links in
with my Shamanic work and initiatory experiences.

Power animals you will have a few but one or two main ones.
I have a zoo these days, but i just ask which one is the one
who wants to work with me on project _______ and one or two
step forward. Sometimes you might get two that work together,
like i have right now.

Interesting to me:

The Return of the Divine Feminine
If you feel different, its cause you are... Perhaps there is only one of you from your star system or dimension, that came here, or maybe just a few. Maybe you feel and embody everything to the point of not knowing separation, so you feel like One person, but made up of everyone and everything that ever existed. In those moments Wholeness restores everything that has fragmented, splintered and felt the illusion of separation. Our Wholeness therefore sends those rays out and transforms the World... Sometimes no one or nothing makes sense because we are so unique - and there is where we find the common thread that is made of Universal Love... Knowing Oneness is diversity in Harmony, like all the organs of the body, the Web of Life and our connection to Source - Oneness itself is the Love and Harmony that the Unified field is made of...

Ok,finally i take the Tarot and "see" which road is taken Here and Now... It's very synthetic.

http://yanarasunluz77.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/kt-tarottab.png

Three cards: TOWER XVI... breaking walls, egos, earthquakes , seen the unseen finally now
TEMPERANCE XIV... equilibrium, balance on the village, little adjustment
HIEROPHANT- the Pope... consulting or "channeling" in a high rate. Good source
or multisource, everyone talks and finally going at the same step.

The Role of Ulli... The World XXI. Control of everything, good work, smooth work.
The MAGICIAN I. All the same as above. Skills to "rule" the village.
The JUSTICE XI. Balance, impartiality, grat vision all over,separation of one- self and make non-judgmental views

A Game, the villagers....

Ulli- The Fool I. (Liberty, free of spirit, the dog is the ego.... ha, ha. Uranus)

Modwiz- The Hanged Man XII (see the world upside down, see the truth. Neptune)

Calz- The Force VIII. (diplomacy)

Eaglespirit- The Judgment XX. (Awarness, wake up... fly :))

Carmody - The High Priestess. ( Subconscience, Moon, equilibrium, sephirot, only the chosen ones can acced to the wisdom)

Nora- The Lovers VI. (choices, decisions. Take the right path or field. )

Lisab- The Moon XVIII. (Subconscience, Piscis... :)... work with your fears. good card, yes)

Marianne- The Chariot VII. ( Starting a new journey)

Astrid- The Death XIII. (Starting to see a new Astrid)

Meeradas- The Empress III. ( Venus. Imagination, art, being pregnant of new ideas moment after moment)

ViralSpiral- The Ermit IX ( Self study, recharge energy, "be in the middle", justice, stop the time)

1Many- The Emperor IV (Information, capacity to control the situations, the king)

Ernie Nemeth- The Devil XV (be aware of his own limits, walls, fears and be aware that they are only mental constructions, break the chains)

Benevolentcrow- The Sun XIX. (Energy, liberty, open like a child to new boundaries, no fear)

Newlyn- The Star XIV. (Changes, connections, Sirio, balance of karma)

Write4achange- The World XXI. (Stable situation, wait, rest for the news events)

9eagle9- The Justice XI- (Justice above all! :) the Damocles sword above others and above oneself too)

...Dan33- The Wheel of Fortune X. (Duality, 4 elements, luck, energy circling , spheres.... the most dificult to interpret in the atmosphere of the thread.....me......i coluld say Las Vegas or Casino ...ha)

That was a game, and Tarot is a game too, serious game.
Each card is a chip or pen drive with all the information an energy about astrology, tree of life, archetypes...
Sorry about the people i forget.

Un beso a todos .... and to John and Jenny from CNN News :)

That was aaaaaaaahsome!
I wear the 'ermits robes with great honor, acknowledging the inner work this lifetime: I have been a monk before, who took a vow of silence for many years. At least now, I have a voice ;)
I see the opportunity as being able to ask for help this time around, which does not come naturally. Its easier to give. I still have much to learn

(...) I hear about people fasting all the time, and I have never understood the draw there. I always wonder how doing without food helps anything spiritually. (...)

It does!
There are also fasts with food...
i know of a Sufi method, where you take 500 grams of grapes per day, that's all.
Plus, it's 12 days in complete darkness. In a soundproof cave or hut, built for that purpose.
Nothing to see or hear from the outside.
Total deprivation of sense impressions, so to say.
I do sympathize with the thought of doing this once...

I have seen the impact it had on two women, who shared the experience.
One of them obviously had 'got it' thru fasting that way.
Her eyes were, her voice was ... shining.
Like a pristine lake in the mountains.


Fasting big time helped me with losing attachments,
and zoomed me ahead with my spiritual path.
But i think its something you have to prepare for,
and be ready for , in order to get the most out of it.

That's essential.
All internal signs must be on "go", otherwise postpone/ drop it.
Can't force it.



...white russians kept me sane (...)

Will you share one of your favourite poems from it? Haven't read any Ramprasad before.


I was chatting to Ulli the other day about loneliness/being a loner.
Ulli postulated that everyone gets lonely. I agreed, to a degree.
Extroverts seeks stimulation from other people whereas an introvert's replenishment comes from this solitude.
The one feels empty, the other gets satisfaction and pleasure from solitude.
The problem arises when both become extreme.
At times I get overwhelmed by the vast amount of humanity around me and would be quite happy not to have to interact for 2 weeks, or more.
I see increased interaction as gaining social skills not increasing pleasure therefor, my work is actually an exquisitely painful catch-22.

The Sufi fast looks delicious!! ;)

O small self, you are a sparkling fish
___ at play in the ocean of consciousness,
and your life is swiftly coming to its end.
Death will skim above you and throw its sharp net.
You will not be protected by your watery world,
for selfish actions have kept you in the shallows.

The fisherman's fatal net will surround you suddenly.
Why do you remain so near the surface of relative existence
___ where Death is granted its fishing grounds?
Yet there is still time.
Leave the dangerous shoreline, mundane mind,
and plunge into silent profundity,
the black waters of Mother Kali's mystery.

"Won't go back to public relations". ROARING at the hermit sketch.

Dan The Moon card so spot on for me and totally Piscean. The correlating number to the Moon is 18, which reduces to 9. Being the last of the single numbers, nine represents the final stage of the seeker. My fate no is 9, so that's interesting. Im also entering a 9 year in March.

Like the Hermit, the image of the Moon is one of isolation and subjection. The seeker must continue his journey down a dimly lit path. Here, his senses are of no use to him. He now must rely on his inner light, the light of his intuition. The Moon requires great courage, as its path is a daunting one. However, if followed, the path can lead to the doorway of higher consciousness.

This is the decisive turning point for the seeker. Should he become mesmerized by the moon's mysterious beauty, he will remain stuck. He will lose sight of the final stage of his spiritual development. If he forces himself forward, however, he will enter the kindsom of light. His final task includes discerning what is an illusion and what is truth. In a Tarot reading, the Moon always encourages us to expore areas where self-deception has blinded us from our true path. Like the seeker, we must have the courage to trust our intuition.

Another element of the Moon tarot is the principle of reflection. The moon reflect both the light of the Sun (higher consciousness) and human intelligence (the creative consciousness). The Moon often refers to the concept of cause and effect. It reflects our behaviors and instincts back to us. It is at this point we are confronted with an opportunity to evaluate whether our behaviours are aligned with our value system. We are forced to either transend or remain stagnant. Often the Moon suggests that behaviour modifications may be necessary. In a Tarot reading, the Moon beckons us to make a decision. Do you want to rise into higher consciousness or remain attached to the deception of your illusions?

Interestlngly, in Osho's Tarot this card is Past Lives. Thanks Dan. Being born a Pisces was never gonna be an easy one!! But I have to say, when Im not falling into illusion, I do love it so. Im here to learn and learn I shall. Love it.

[Marianne]

Good morning to the village.

I agree that the alone thing is a theme/meme lately.

Calz, you are planning to do the lemonade tea cleanse in February? I'm in ... let me know when you are starting. Had a friend who added chlorella powder to her lemonade cos it has lots of protein.

I'm juicing in the mornings, but still have food at lunch (usually a salad) and then for supper either fruit or whole grain/vegs. Fruit should be eaten on an empty stomach, then given 30-60 minutes to digest out of the stomach.

I agree that exercise is vital in processing emotional fallout. I've walked my feet sore at times, and always felt better. Outdoors in nature is best, but indoors on exercise equipment helps too.

Astrid, love the vids you posted. Thanks to all ... love seeing what everyone has contributed.

I'm going to skype with a gifted healer soon, to get some insight and healing ... time to move along.

Love to all,
Marianne

Reading "The Prophet" and while it is a short book and I have not yet finished I will say this about it..........WOW!!!!!!!! This is a book that was writen in 1923 and what I can so far only call truth in print!!!!!!! Gibran saw this coming of age and gave the directions for a new world. The truth in this book will make your eyes cry and your soul sing!!!!!! After reading this book a simple truth becomes so aparent that we are all as he put "a boundless drop in a boundless ocean". Wonderful book of truth and it is just what this world needs. It is an expression of the deepest longings in the human heart. It may well be a bible of the new age and tells of the truth that should be and is to come.

love you all!!!!!!!!!!!! xoxoxoxo...........

[Ernie Nemeth]

Hi friends.

Devil, eh? If you only knew what this brings up for me. Without reading up on it further, just the word itself has produced a lot of "stuff". And not so much directly but on tangents. On life themes. I've often wondered if I am on the right team, since the work comes in fits and starts on this side, with apparently little help from those higher beings who could help. This has often made me think I am not wanted by this team, or that I am not on the right team at all.
But more importantly, since I refuse to believe that I am for the other side, I continually wonder what makes me so unworthy of aid.

And this spins out into my predicted death at age 56. This I have lived with since about age ten, when someone with predictive powers told me so. I did not think much of it beyond curiosity until age 28.5 when I learned of Saturn's influence on my life. I think they call it "the return", I forget. It was a traumatic time and I found the coincidence rather hard to ignore that 56 is two full orbits of Saturn - two "returns". It eerily makes sense. And I don't like "eerie". Not that I'm afraid of death, only, I don't like to think my life has been so patterned and that sad fate awaits me - and there's nothing I can do about it. I have surrendered myself to this fate, made peace with it, knowing I at least get to live through 2012. I so want to see what happens. After that, I don't care. My job is done here.

And the devil inside of each man is something I very much understand. I can always "see" how I could be as evil as the most obviously "evil" amongst us - how little separates us all from such extremes. Sometimes I wonder how can I understandsuch things unless I am also of that ilk. It is why I can always forgive another - because I could just as easily have made the same mistake, given the right circumstance. These thoughts plague my conscience at times.

Now I will go down to storage and dig out my Tarot books. I will see what the devil card truly stands for.

Also, Dan, by using only the 22 cards of the major arcana invalidates some of the otherwise more powerful intent of the cards, since you are not using the "shadings" of the minor cards. This is me trying to lessen the impact of this "nasty"-seeming card you picked for me.

From what this has brought up for me, and considering how I am focused on the material 3D aspects of life at the moment, I'd say this card is spot on in terms of current life issues.
That might change once I peruse my reference books. We'll see.

[eaglespirit]

Ernie...You are a Wayshower!!!

Ernie Nemeth- The Devil XV (be aware of his own limits, walls, fears and be aware that they are only mental constructions, break the chains)

You know how to know when others in your life need to do what you have already done and show the way for them to decide to make their own way!

You decided to stop doing 'wrong' things of any nature a long time ago...You got the 'goods'!!!

[PurpleLama]

at age fifty-six, death is not of the physical vehicle, but of the mental emotional constructs your identity has been built from, at fifty-six the illusion is pierced and the true self shall shine forth from the wound, ( a door slamming shut, so hard that the door frame itself shatters, all limitations removed, what was closed is now open and cannot be shut again)

our resident horay astrologer can chart this, if he is willing, and confirm or deny this reading.

HAHA i do believe that's Mod's broom at the end, lol.

Funny. Also quite true. Reminds me of a hermit I met. She lived up the mountain behind us, gone now.
She walked for miles every day. A writer, born in Zimbabwe, Africa, went to London, became a Playboy Bunny, went to LA, became a B movie actress, ran a guesthouse in Hollywood, which had 250 stained glass windows she had collected over the years and put in.
Then she decided to get a bicycle and rode solo through Europe and the Middle East. Twenty countries. All her belongings in two bags on the back wheel.
One morning, while getting out of her tiny tent somewhere in the vast steppes of Hungary, or Romania, can't remember, she saw a single man approaching her tent. Was wondering if she ought to prepare herself for some self defense action, but as he came nearer he introduced himself in English...he was the man who was walking around the earth alone.

Her name is Megan Timothy. She is back in LA, I believe. Incredible life story which is worth googling...she had a brain illness later and couldn't say anything for four years, except for one single sentence: F**k that chicken. She told me herself, that part is not on any website. She also wrote a book which sold quite well..."I want to die laughing".

Here and now checking my astro aspects for today

"Venus Trine MC
Creative activity
This is a good time for any kind of creative activity. If you are active in a creative field, you should be unusually productive today.
Under any circumstances this is a good time to get involved with the arts or any other activity concerning beauty.
It is also an excellent time to redecorate your home and make your personal surroundings more attractive.
Your taste for beauty is aroused, and you are much more sensitive to the aesthetic nature of your surroundings.
This is also a time when you feel very affectionate and have a great need to express your affection for others.
You want to give and receive love. Usually this is a very pleasant influence, because you are pleasant to be around.
Others can sense how you feel about them, which makes them feel good in return. "

Sounds about right, i have been moving back into creative pursuits for a while now, but this week i have been more
focused in this area, setting the stage for things to move forward. These ideas feel much more supported than
they were 6 months ago.

[9eagle9]

After all that I'd want to hermitze for a while too.

Ernie, I was supposed to choke to death on a fish bone at age 23. Didn't happen. Mind you, it might have helped that I avoided eating fish that entire year.

The second Saturn return, which happens around 56 to 58, depending on Saturn's forward or retrograde motion at the
time of birth, is like all Saturn transits, a period of becoming more responsible. Many people start becoming more active in their community with the second Saturn return.
The seven year itch also has to do with Saturn. Each right angle takes seven years to complete....at age seven come the new teeth and more school work and less play. At age 14 or thereabouts the hormones kick in, puberty, etc, at 21 enter life, education time is over, jobs are more demanding, and at age 28 the burden becomes still heavier as there are kids and family concerns. And so it continues.

Each Saturn angles tests resolve. Harder for Pisceans than other signs as their memory of heaven is strong and they want nothing to do with this dimension, even though they initially agreed to jump into the cold pool of an earth life.
All Pisces kids should become aware of their great gifts and talents early so that they can make their first million before they are 25... Then at least they have the means to live in the kind of sanctuary they need in order to recharge their batteries every night before taking on the challenges of the coming day.
