Here and Now...What's Happening?

[benevolentcrow]

I will follow the sun and it is not in front of my Mac. So outside I go for the rest of the day. Sunny and in the 70's today and BLUE SKY! Yay!

I know to much cuteness! Cute goes a long way with me!

I've been helping my daughter with her move. All of the furniture and most boxes is going in storage. My basement is also being used as storage for the delicate stuff and winter clothing. They found a really good deal and bought an old (1978) camper which they have installed on the land. Work on the house was delayed until last week because of the legal proceedings, so they will be camping for the next 2 months until they can move into their home. They are still a bit nervous about everything, but my daughter has the faith that can move mountains. All is well.

Missing Calz too. I know he is spending quality time with his family and this makes me happy for him.

Happy Solstice to EveryOne

Happy Solstice, Villagers.
The veil today is thinner than ever so it's easy to connect with our dearest guides, ancestors, saints and God(desses), right across all the dimensions.
And not to forget with one another.

Here we are having a picnic at Stonehenge.

One of my favorite, at least funnest, insects is the hummingbird moth you have here. I see a few every year here once the actual hummingbirds show up. The moths are much more sensuous in their probings. They take more time. The birds are more darting and frenetic in their feeding.

Just saw one yesterday, but here's some from previous garden times:

are you of the other kind?


:suspicious:

I come from a place where the mosquitos are so big, that they have landing strips and full airports in the deeper parts of the woods.

After a time, the immunity builds, regarding antibodies. over the years.

Now, I barely suffer a small bump, at the start of the season, on the first bite. After that, virtually nothing.

The other requisite aspect is...body hair. Body hair gives warning, like cat whiskers.

Heya Brother, I tend to babble on, but perhaps some will be served, eh.

I don't usually pay much attention to my dreams as some do, but had an interesting one last night. I walked into a store to pick up some item, but ran into a robbery in progress. A gunman had shot and killed two patrons, and as I entered, he grabbed me, threw me to the ground, and held his gun at my head. I think it was a 9 mm, from the muzzle feel. He indicated that he was going to shoot me, since he wanted no witnesses, and besides, he liked the feel of killing.

I was somewhat alarmed at the development, but soon got over it, and prepared myself to exit the mortal coil. During the time I had my head pressed to the floor, I first noticed some fleeting images of nice spots I had visited in the past, but then became aware of the guman's hesitation. He seemed to be undergoing an internal process which involved synching up with my own consciousness. Consequently, I decided to take him for a ride, and plunged into a deep place of utter letting go and surrender, which confounded him to such an extent that, after about 10 minutes, he relented and let me go. As he walked out the door, he said, "There -- use that for your next poem!"

Well, I surveyed the room, and decided I should go and find a cop. When I went out on the street, I saw waht looked like a cop, and approached him, but he told me he was from Mississippi, and just here on vacation (I think I was in San Francisco). I was going to ask him if he knew you, but thought that I better find a local cop first. When I finally did, instead of letting me tell him about the robbery/murder, he went into a long spiel about some domestic issue of his own, which I had to listen to before I could relate my tale.

When I awoke, I felt a tear in my eye for the gunman. I told Mazie about it, and she was glad I wasn't killed!


(oops, sorry, Ulli, hadn't seen your post above)

[onawah]

Is this a mosquito? No. It's an insect spy drone for urban areas, already in production, funded by the US Government. It can be remotely controlled and is equipped with a camera and a microphone. It can land on you, and it may have the potential to take a DNA sample or leave RFID tracking nanotechnology on your skin. It can fly through an open window, or it can attach to your clothing until you take it in your home. Given their propensity to request macro-sized drones for surveillance, one is left with little doubt that police and military may look into these gadgets next.

And for all you who automatically say "fake" because you don't think your glorious government is funding this... do some research.

Happy Summer Solstice


Solstice Mid-Summer Litha

http://earthlorenews.files.wordpress.com/2010/05/litha.gif?w=477 (http://earthlorenews.files.wordpress.com/2010/05/litha.gif)June 20th-23rd is the celebration of Summer Solstice, also known as Litha. The Summer Solstice marks the longest day and shortest night of the year. The night of Summer Solstice has long been revered as a time of magic and manifestation, when the sun is at the height of its power in the shadow of the waxing Moon.


http://www.razbointrucuvant.ro/wp-content/uploads//2008/11/big-bang.jpg

In old Celtic traditions, the Summer Solstice festival usually spanned several days and focused on outdoor events under the open sun by day, and ’round a large bonfire by night. Solstice marked the official start of Summer when crops were ripening, and trees and bushes were starting to produce fruit. It was a time of giving thanks to the Gods & Goddesses of the Sun, Fire, Fertility, & Abundance.

Whether you are flying solo this Solstice or celebrating with a group, take some time to connect with the energy of the Sun, and the Spirit of the new season. The exact days and rituals of Summer Solstice vary from culture to culture and country to country, so be creative. Put together your own Mid-Summer altar or festival. Keep in mind this is a celebration of the Sun and the abundance of Summer.

It did just so happen, that the universe conspired to have Playdo at my house, last night, in the Solstice Eve. There was much Fae revelry to be had, and all is, indeed, very well.

As an aside, I do wonder who, besides ulli and myself, has actually read the entirety of this here thread. Please answer only if affirmative. It's just a random thought.

One must needs sift through the internal dialogue when it arises, as the subconscious, as it were, will sometimes encode messages therein. Such is the vehicle of inspiration. So to cut right to the heart of Avalon's conflict, sometimes Wisdom discounts Inspiration, and likewise Inspiration often gives no heed to Wisdom. I personally have a great love for Abob and Songs, and they have each been gifted by me. It is what it is.

I quite enjoy life.

I wish I could say the same. For me with my addict personality
life is enjoyable only when it is moving so fast that it makes me dizzy.
Most of the time I am aware of two parallel sensations:
survival instinct and death wish.
Always aware that I am trapped in a body.
Last night Carmody posted a video of a car moving along a dark and empty country road.
I watched it full of nostalgia, as nothing like that exists here where I live,
yet my youth was all about those long drives at night.

Germany had great highways, and so did England where I could afford Alpha Romeos and BMW from the time I was 23
and I was always speeding. I got stopped a few times but let go without a ticket.
Having money then meant changing every two years to get the latest model, and I was very flash.

Now our cars are between 10 and 20 years old, 2 SUVs and a 1993 750iL BMW,
not much fun driving here as the roads are full of pot holes.

So here I am, with my inner speed freak longing to be let out again.
Life's enjoyment for me is now mostly in my head.

Hi PurpleLama,

I'm unclear of what you are speaking about. But I can share this:

I didn't get it up fast enough for Bob to see. But the post where I thanked him for the "Vanishing Breed", Robbie Robertson song and vid, I added the link you provided and said that I cut and pasted his post. It's now one of my inspirational pieces.

One post that I didn't understand was the one's with numbers from Anchor.

Just a couple of days ago, I also went through the beginning with post #!, to when I entered the scene on the "Here and Now" thread last March.

I discovered a picture of Ulli in her flower garden. I discovered that 9eagel9 use to post. I read the conflict that Calz went through and left and returned. He was also left off the team that was designed a couple of weeks back. I felt bad for him. He voiced this in an M&M benched picture. I am also aware that Calz was by Songs side when many needed a break. No judgement on any one. It speaks to his character. Too, same on the "Up At The Ranch (James Gilliland and Trout Lake)". Cal is there for many, many people. I am grateful. He's encouraged me to post when I was blown away by dark comments. PurpleLama, I would include you in many of this. You also have an innate knowing when some one needs a kind gesture. A gentle prodding.)

I discovered Modwiz's broom, and some cool animations from viral spiral like the party balloons that I've use a couple of times now. Yes, I can say that I have read through the thread.

I also worry about leaving people out. Oh, and one last thing, some of Carmody's post are beyond what I can understand.

As for Songs, this is the post I had all set to post, but didn't because I felt like may need to stop being so hoggy. My plan was to wait one more day. It was originally going to be added to Nora's post. So I'll keep as I had intended:

Hi Nora,

This is an invitation that Songsfortheanotherkind (see avatar below) has extended. So my essence will be with them off and on over the three days:

"On the 21st our family will be gathering by the sea to send out a lantern for Krystal, one for Lydia, one for our son Rune and one for my twin daughters Savannah and Sirocco, and our Songs of love and blessing for wherever they are in the multiverse. On the 23rd, the same is done but by sending the paper lanterns into the air over a giant bonfire, so that they leap up and become upward flying sparks.

I would consider it a privilege to send out a lantern for Michael, one mother to another, with your blessings and permission, if you would like that. "

I'm hoping he'll send a feather thanks to Songsfortheanotherkind and Family.
Peace,
WhiteCrowBlackDeer

I expect a culmination of Light Vs Dark in 2012 and by that I mean forces/energies/moods of two apposing polars. I expect this to come at the time of the olympics as very astutely pointed out by Rik Clay.

Ulli (love the word play btw!) is there any significant (by which I mean huge) astrological event due between 27th July and 12 August 2012? This is when the olympics are scheduled for and there's evidence to suggest this will be the time of the holographic ET false flag in London (New Troy) when the entire world is watching. I believe this will be the final tip in the balance.......

I'd really appreciate your astrological input here if possible?
Ok, I had a look. Yes on July 19th, 2012 there is indeed a T-square, and an extremely volatile situation will begin.
Uranus and Pluto are forming a right abgle and on that day Mars comes into opposition to Uranus, forming a right angle with Pluto.

If this was coming up in my personal chart I would be preparing for it by closing a few channels, by praying and meditating.
And in the past found that it diminished the impact.
Astrology can protect individuals, nations and the planet as a whole, the way a good weather forecast protects farmers or fishermen.

You should see what my chart looks like.

Egads!


At least the Pluto Uranus square left you alone. Poor people who have planets at the 8th degree of the cardinal axis.
But I agree, Saturn is still hovering, and Venus has just finished squaring your Virgo stuff, some of which I witnessed hitting you today.
But on the whole I would be careful now not to miss the opportunities being presented by the trine from Pluto...
which will still be around after Saturn has finished trampling all over you.
You'll be fine.

That's my birthday.

None of the angles affect your chart. You'll be fine.
If you are really worried find out at www.astro.com where your Ascendant is;
you need your birth time and place to find that out.
I checked 7/19/50 figuring that as your data.
You only have Venus square Saturn around that time, no other squares at all. Venus square Saturn moves fast
and might only cause a few hours of sadness. As an angle it occurs several times a year, so no biggie.

Libra has 30 degrees. Unless you know the exact degree it means nothing in this context.
but if your Ascendant is at 8 degrees Libra then you will be affected by the Pluto/ Uranus square. Lets hope not.

I was aware of Lilith since the early eighties when I met a woman who had written a book called Dark Moon Lilith.
I followed it faithfully for year or so, but could never see any correlation.
The same went for the Part of Fortune and other minor points. I ignore them mostly now.

Meanwhile having two Yods does mean something. Another name for Yod is "Finger of God",
and it means you have been bestowed with special gifts.

The few times that I thought I was being followed, surveilled, etc. also happened to be the times
that I was investigating all kinds of top secret materials.
So I found out that is how EVERYTHING in the universe is wired.
The moment you stop investigating that stuff, all those MIB disappear.
They put on their sunshades and flash that little thing at you.
And you find yourself in a different time line, having your nails done, having a picnic in a park....

mmm.....interesting posting.

I pretty much stay inside these days (for various reasons...not interested in going into in this posting). Last time I was out, on a lengthy trip away from home, I felt the presence of a spy and it un-nerved me quite a tad (about a year and half ago). It was at a private resort type spa facility (alternative, clothing optional one...so new age people, hippies and ex-workers hung out there). And it happened after I started sharing about remote viewing and healing with a couple who suddenly where very interested in me.

I ran like crazy. All I am saying. You think you can stand up to them and then you find out you are scared. Who knew? ...that they had gotten into our sub-conscious that way.

I have made conscious effort to balance the curiosity of my adventurous mind with expressing what I felt was building a better world. Once I dropped that whole conspiracy investigation and decided to go on with normal activities forgetting that "they" exist everything started to glow in a most wondrous way.
Nowadays I only have one desire: to make everyone aware of the powers of their own self awareness. And the best way to do this is through my own example. Like now. Where focus goes energy flows. Then one can go out again, having forgotten about "them" and they are no longer there. Like they never existed in the first place. No fear.

Just a few notes to add. I didn't have paranoia (...just saying...wasn't in my conscious thought patterns to be afraid of being spied on....till it happened).
And remotely (with remote viewing), I get into trouble regularly. And have learned to deal with/handle situations that I never ever thought existed.

I am sort of thinking that there is so much going on, that we are not aware of, that everyone would be in total meltdown if they knew. So maybe not a good idea if the veils (between this dimension and the ether) dropped. There just seems to be more bad ones (than goods ones) in the ether (time).

When I was studying the Gurdjieff teachings I came across his term "buffers" quite regularly.
Buffers are what humans put up to protect themselves from truth, because according to G. if we were to access all truth we would die in an instance.
What I never understand is how sensitive people can expose themselves to harsh realities, and how they cope with the suffering.
But I guess it is all relative.
When I consider how brave some people are I feel quite ashamed.

Still, there is this mystery of manifesting one's wishes,
which seems to be happening more and more these days, in my case. It's as if I live in a world already where there are different rules.

I'm perceiving these two processes at work, especially since around 2000: the old world is crumbling and a new world is emerging,
and each one of us can choose which of these two processes we wish to take part in.
There is no judgement here, I just thought that maybe I could point out the options.

[Guest]

While driving to an appointment today had an inner prompting not to go. Called to see if I could change the day -no problem.
I ended up going to the farmers market to buy some raw honey and vegetables. Got in my car to leave and then felt compelled to pray.
So I sat in the parking lot, head back eyes closed praying and then 2 guides showed up and took me to another land with another sun.
What they showed me was not a big wow or some spectacular realm.... but that the old is being transformed & moving into the new and that there is a new beginning starting.
After I came back I drove up the mountain and made & ate my dinner. Then I set to pray in the way I do..... for the people, people who have asked for healing and for our earth.
One of the things that came to me during prayer was that many people do not know exactly of this new beginning of life.... this is what prompted me to post on the Solstice.

WhiteCrowBlackDear what a beautiful post.... I do share similar events in my life as you do -although I do not post most of it. Between 2006 and 2009 I lost 5 people -3 family members and 2 mentors all of them women.
I also lost a child but I was 4 months along....(many years ago) I have been so blessed and graced with so much... and each of them are such blessings in my life all of them beautiful lanterns of lights.

It did just so happen, that the universe conspired to have Playdo at my house, last night, in the Solstice Eve. There was much Fae revelry to be had, and all is, indeed, very well.

As an aside, I do wonder who, besides ulli and myself, has actually read the entirety of this here thread. Please answer only if affirmative. It's just a random thought.

One must needs sift through the internal dialogue when it arises, as the subconscious, as it were, will sometimes encode messages therein. Such is the vehicle of inspiration. So to cut right to the heart of Avalon's conflict, sometimes Wisdom discounts Inspiration, and likewise Inspiration often gives no heed to Wisdom. I personally have a great love for Abob and Songs, and they have each been gifted by me. It is what it is.

I quite enjoy life.


The Universe conspiring is my favourite part of enjoying life (especially when playdo is involved!) :love:

Researchers identify protein required to regrow injured nerves in limbs

The finding, in mice, has implications for improving recovery after nerve injury in the extremities. It also opens new avenues of investigation toward triggering nerve regeneration in the central nervous system, notorious for its inability to heal.

Peripheral nerves provide the sense of touch and drive the muscles that move arms and legs, hands and feet. Unlike nerves of the central nervous system, peripheral nerves can regenerate after they are cut or crushed. But the mechanisms behind the regeneration are not well understood.

In the new study, published online June 20 in Neuron, the scientists show that a protein called dual leucine zipper kinase (DLK) regulates signals that tell the nerve cell it has been injured – often communicating over distances of several feet. The protein governs whether the neuron turns on its regeneration program.

Heya Brother, I tend to babble on, but perhaps some will be served, eh.

I don't usually pay much attention to my dreams as some do, but had an interesting one last night. I walked into a store to pick up some item, but ran into a robbery in progress. A gunman had shot and killed two patrons, and as I entered, he grabbed me, threw me to the ground, and held his gun at my head. I think it was a 9 mm, from the muzzle feel. He indicated that he was going to shoot me, since he wanted no witnesses, and besides, he liked the feel of killing.

I was somewhat alarmed at the development, but soon got over it, and prepared myself to exit the mortal coil. During the time I had my head pressed to the floor, I first noticed some fleeting images of nice spots I had visited in the past, but then became aware of the guman's hesitation. He seemed to be undergoing an internal process which involved synching up with my own consciousness. Consequently, I decided to take him for a ride, and plunged into a deep place of utter letting go and surrender, which confounded him to such an extent that, after about 10 minutes, he relented and let me go. As he walked out the door, he said, "There -- use that for your next poem!"

Well, I surveyed the room, and decided I should go and find a cop. When I went out on the street, I saw waht looked like a cop, and approached him, but he told me he was from Mississippi, and just here on vacation (I think I was in San Francisco). I was going to ask him if he knew you, but thought that I better find a local cop first. When I finally did, instead of letting me tell him about the robbery/murder, he went into a long spiel about some domestic issue of his own, which I had to listen to before I could relate my tale.

When I awoke, I felt a tear in my eye for the gunman. I told Mazie about it, and she was glad I wasn't killed!


(oops, sorry, Ulli, hadn't seen your post above)

And the night before last, I went on along jaunt, in a city, with water and puddles. We jumped in puddles and made big paper airplanes, and threw them very far. And had more fun playing in the puddles, and the city.

I think it was Ernie's young relative. She was about that age, could have been her.

(one of three for that night)

IRL, we have put in a garden, and have been playing in puddles in the yard every day that occur where the water hoses have holes in them, and my wife has made several big paper airplanes, which I see at this moment strewn about the yard.  

As an aside, after putting in my own vegetable beds, for the first time, I see myself farming instead of framing a year from now.

The paper planes are upwards of a foot and a half to two feet long.

Why do we "block" this regeneration?

The blocking might well be to do with same energies that damaged the nerve in the first place, as the subconscious created the conditions to become bedridden, or wheelchair bound for whatever reasons. My guess is that when the legs are incapacitated one can then start reading more books, thus developing the upper chakras.
All part of a bigger picture.

Good to hear PL, gardening, especially food gardening is SO goood for da soul.
It pulled me out of a sticky depression, reminded me what life was really all about,
and was an ever faithful friend that returned my efforts 100 fold with gifting me
fantastic clean food. Seed saving is a good practice too, i love how one tiny
lettuce seed, produces a plant that then gives you thousands of new seeds.

I bet we are the only ones although not too sure if Calz might not have. There have been quite a few changes and people have dropped out whle new ones joined.
Sometimes things moved too fast to take in everything that happened. It really had to think hard before I remembered that Dan33 had forgotten to include Calz on that soccer team.

Hi guys, hope you are all well.

Started to do more meditation now, only a novice and yesterday been working on the third eye.

I have have the vivid purple and feel the strong pressure so hopefully it wont be too long before I get inner vision but I will wait patiently.

Any how just wanted to share that last night during solstice I had a dream of many many star craft flying overhead in the night sky, it was wonderful to see, no.fear felt just joy. In fact as I write this my hearing was rereplaced with a high ringing and bless just flooded my body, a sign it was more than a dream perhaps x

Hi Ulli, just wanted to say (re the first bit in bold) I wonder how many lurk that used to post often?.... I read The Village every day and really miss taking part (I'm pretty sure I've read the whole thread at least once). I feel part of The Village but seem to have lost the what-ever-it-is to write, I think I know what it is but words don't come... I admire WCBD, Flasky, Norma and many others for their posts about their past, I can't, hence being the lurker I am. But, I'd love you all to know how much you do for those like me, peeking in, The Village is such a beautiful example of how life should really be.

My love and gratitude to every one of you.

John

So you want me to think less? What do you suggest I do? Have my frontal lobes removed?
Only by thinking hard can I even begin to understand some of your cryptic messages, and so far the one about the "tasty razor blades" I'm still clueless.

Forum fatigue would be a side effect of too much pub crawling, so I can see what might have happened there.

I bet we are the only ones although not too sure if Calz might not have. There have been quite a few changes and people have dropped out whle new ones joined.
Sometimes things moved too fast to take in everything that happened. It really had to think hard before I remembered that Dan33 had forgotten to include Calz on that soccer team. Maybe only those people who connect on the thread at the same time really can form lasting bonds. Or only those who send each other PMs. This thread has kept me so busy that I hardly PM at all any more, only sometimes when someone wants a clarification.

Hi Ulli, just wanted to say (re the first bit in bold) I wonder how many lurk that used to post often?.... I read The Village every day and really miss taking part (I'm pretty sure I've read the whole thread at least once). I feel part of The Village but seem to have lost the what-ever-it-is to write, I think I know what it is but words don't come... I admire WCBD, Flasky, Norma and many others for their posts about their past, I can't, hence being the lurker I am. But, I'd love you all to know how much you do for those like me, peeking in, The Village is such a beautiful example of how life should really be.

My love and gratitude to every one of you.

The way I see it is that you get to know yourself here. Get in touch with yourself. That's all you have left when you leave this world. So to find that you can write here what's going on with you at the moment of writing. You get to choose what you want to say of course. You might be sitting on the toilet while writing on an iPad, something which was not possible in the old desktop computer days, but you don't have to share that. Guard your privacy.
But maybe some of us then can respond to whatever you do write, even if only with a thank you. And with that response others learn about what it was about your post that they could identify enough with to be prompted to write back.

And so it goes on. Even in the most intimate settings one can only get to know oneself, the partner is there, and shares thoughts once in a while but in partnership there can ultimately only be mutual maintenance, but never full knowledge of the other person's inner processes.
My husband has no idea about what I'm writing here, while he is clicking through his various local TV channels, and I can only guess at his thoughts, assuming, perhaps, but never knowing what they are.
So jump in, even if only to talk about the weather. Or your garden, or your pets. All of that is our human reality.

I cant read it all, its just impossible. I just trust I will read the bits I need to read when I need to read them :)

Love to all.

This is definitely a scroll thread. And sometimes one has to lift a ton of dirt to find a diamond.
Yesterday I did some practice runs with the Avalon search engine which resulted with some surprise discoveries.
One only needs to know what one is searching for... then it is easy.
So, having discovered what I want from life and what I want to offer in return my motto is now:
"first find your own agenda, people!"

I know I don't have to tell you that, as I can see you are already well on your way.

OK, here comes a diamond:

I also wanted to clarify the earlier statement of mine:


This is definitely a scroll thread. And sometimes one has to lift a ton of dirt to find a diamond

Just so that no one thinks that I was thinking of their contribution as "dirt"- I was not.
I value all contribution that is not deliberate spamming with malicious intent.

What I was really thinking of here was the space taken up by the original quotes we are responding to,
when they become longer and longer, and one is not deleting the older irrelevant stuff.

I am one of the guilty ones, but am now trying to remember to be more conscious of what baggage a post is carrying
when I hit the "send" button.

For the gardening post a few post back.

I support local organic farmers and I am working on my own organic garden. Love the feel of dirt between my fingers. I can't bring myself to wear gloves. Dirty fingernails. Guess you would say I am low maintenance.

I do scroll down through the post, occasionally landing on something that interest me. I would be here and now all day if I let myself. I will read short post, sometimes long ones. I love the photos and allow myself to watch a video or two.

I try to thank everyone for their contributions, if I miss someone it is not that I don't appreciate your thoughts.

This thread is large and in charge!

There is a whole big wide world out there and I do try to enjoy it!

When you're smilin'....keep on smilin'
The whole world smiles with you
And when you're laughin'....keep on laughin'
The sun comes shinin' through

But when you're cryin'.... you bring on the rain
So stop your frownin'....be happy again
Cause when you're smilin'....keep on smilin'
The whole world smiles with you

The great big world will smile with

The whole wide world will smile with you

I’ve written how no matter where I go, were all together. I’ve always had a Group since I came to the planet. Now, our Avalonian Family and beyond come together 24/7. That’s not a metaphor. The greater the number that gather, the larger the Light essence. Which attracts more of those ready to ramp up their essence.

All of this is an outward manifestation of Inner Soul’s play.

The energy signature is all one in the same. Integration of all past and futures are in the One Soul. Another way to see this is that the parallel lives awoke to see there is no dividing lines. Aspects work in unison for no specific purpose. Only what is assign to these cut out paper dolls.

Why the paper dolls? To gather experiences all to awaken inner knowing that “this body” and the “parallel play worlds” is One Soul creating experiences. All spidering out in endless play.

What’s the purpose for the paper dolls? None. We assign purpose and play it out which ends up taking us on journeys. It’s neither good or bad. It’s just play. There’s no itinerary. Just a journey of our own making because we are co-creators. It’s a natural state. We turn away from what it really Is:


Subject + verb + object = Light/Oneness/All/God/Absolute

Light Lighting the Light

Then to
Light Light Light

Finally
Light/Oneness/All/God/Absolute

Scene from "There Will Be Blood". Dramatic, hilarious... or both.
I love the acting, specially if you had seen the movie.
I wonder what says Daniel Day Lewis to Elia on 3:29.

Hola Dan. Is this what it feels like to you every time you visit the Village? Hey, maybe practicing this stunt by Jim Carrey...
might relieve some stress, too.

iuqRrG7H_d8

Daniel, an oil tycoon, he should be baptized as a payment to buy a land rich in oil. This is the tension of the scene. Daniel hates Elia, the priest.

No, Ulli. I don't feel like this in the Village. (but "something" in me, makes me (?) run away when i´m in a "spiritual place". "Run or you'll be caught and locked".
I was "educated" in a religious school (Opus Dei...scary), so this kind of scenes make me laugh a lot. I see on Daniel Day Lewis character ...the Yes and No!! at the same time. Great actor. "Gangs of New York" is not a dramatic picture, NO, it's a Terror Movie just because of him.

There's another angle from the movie "Elmer Granty". Burt Lancaster Such a Wonderful Actor.

Besides, although some tunes punch holes in my allegorical aura I do not forget that, even in no-mind, the shadow stalks.......

Posted once before, but addresses your question:


Using the mind to look for reality is delusion. Not using the mind to look for reality is awareness. The mind that wants to free itself from all programs is itself a program, just as that which wants to dispel the mind virus is itself an expression of that very virus, the disease of the mind.

There is no “original” thought, nor is there any such thing as an “original” deed. Every thought that any being could possibly entertain has already been thought innumerable times over, and likewise any action. This universe of phenomena is a grain of sand on an infinite beach, and this beach is but a grain of sand in the totality of manifestation, which is itself of the same nature as last night’s dream.

Furthermore, in this so-called realm of apparent phenomena, there is nothing but delusion, which itself is utterly empty of any inherent self-nature. Upon careful inspection, some other phenomena apart from the delusion of human beings cannot be supposed nor demonstrated. Because that is so, all apparent phenomena are only delusions. There is no truth, only dreaming.

Moreover, it cannot be proven that, having removed delusion, there is no delusion. Because delusion is pure by nature, it is self-illuminating. Because that is so, all phenomena are actually perfect props in the dreamy projection of mind called self and world. Because that is so, phenomena appearing in various ways simply represent the synchronous opera of the phantom body and mind – the engaging delight of That which is dreaming all of this.

Likewise, even the apparent Awakened of the past, present, and future cannot transcend the complete purity of delusion, since it is nothing but a virtual reality, a non-binding, transient, and empty modification of consciousness itself, so when the fist is opened, what is there but empty air?

Except in the degree of sense of humor, a difference between ordinary deluded beings and the so-called Awakened cannot be distinguished by the nature of phenomena. Just as the causes and results of a dream appear individually, under the power of complete imputation, determined by one’s angle of vision, filters, memory associations, preferences, and so forth, the individual appearances of the intellect are only flowers planted in the air, consisting of nothing enduring or substantial.

I was really just wondering who else may have read this thread from start to finish

I'm in it for the tunes!

Actually, I started reading it a few months ago, and liked what I found, so decided to chip in. It's really a quite remarkable group assembled here! I've participated in various alt forums for a decade and a half now. What one typically finds are similar patterns emerging, regardless of topic. The latest issue with Songs and the pubsters is like a deja vu in that respect -- a charismatic personality with a few word hooks comes along, a clique is formed, a club house, and then the old us vs them theme that Fred pointed out. After you've seen this a few times, it gets rather wearying, which is why this Village is such a relief -- to find caring people without chips on their shoulders who can intelligently explore a variety of pertinent topics without rancor, and relate their everyday experience in a compassionate and vulnerable manner, with lots of support and humor. Pretty rare, but much appreciated!

Blessings to all!

Although Avalon is my first experience with a forum, I recognize this thread as remarkable and unique to the forum and the net as a whole. Me own experience is somewhat limited, as far as it goes, but me intuition says "yeah".

I'd say it's an excellent blueprint for the compassionate non-localized community in which both healing and real transformation can occur. Such a prototype can both point the way and also serve as an anchor in the midst of the looming shift we've entered. We're fortunate to have been drawn together, as I'm sure most here will agree!

Exactly so. For whatever such a statement may be. Quandary exists in understanding such, and the two (motion toward clarity) tend to happen in a conjunctive manner. I consider the use of 'tend', as there are no absolutes in a situation where perception is it's own petard. Translation and transmittance then become a core issue.

One might wonder why this one might then desire to play in the water and shoot paper planes, with the setting sun glowing in the puddles, to hop and skip through them...or to 'go to war' (in hard reflection) with the forces that try and slow human advancement, to fight with the beings in the system, as they misinterpret the motion and move, and hold to things that do not exist.

While driving to an appointment today had an inner prompting not to go. Called to see if I could change the day -no problem.
I ended up going to the farmers market to buy some raw honey and vegetables. Got in my car to leave and then felt compelled to pray.
So I sat in the parking lot, head back eyes closed praying and then 2 guides showed up and took me to another land with another sun.
What they showed me was not a big wow or some spectacular realm.... but that the old is being transformed & moving into the new and that there is a new beginning starting.
After I came back I drove up the mountain and made & ate my dinner. Then I set to pray in the way I do..... for the people, people who have asked for healing and for our earth.
One of the things that came to me during prayer was that many people do not know exactly of this new beginning of life.... this is what prompted me to post on the Solstice.

'May the waters of feeling from deep within, be my guide through the changes before me.'

WhiteCrowBlackDear what a beautiful post.... I do share similar events in my life as you do -although I do not post most of it. Between 2006 and 2009 I lost 5 people -3 family members and 2 mentors all of them women.
I also lost a child but I was 4 months along....(many years ago) I have been so blessed and graced with so much... and each of them are such blessings in my life all of them beautiful lanterns of lights.

These days, my son generally has paint somewhere on his person, every day when I get home from work. And we are usually playing in puddles when the sun is setting, as the garden gets it's water and the old hoses make random puddles across the yard.

I contend that many of us, not just you and I, are having our here and nows mixed together like so much temper paint, on the flip side. I seem to be observing this both on the forum and in life all around. I have witnessed more psychic phenomena in the last few months than all the years previous. At the moment I am remembering Neptune in Pisces.

For me the H+N is the heart of Avalon. It's now got to the point where even my sister and best friend ask "wots happening in the village today?!"

Read Bob's post just after reading this....
The world of matter is a relative world, and an illusory one, illusory in the sense that we do not see it as it really is. The way it really is cannot be communicated verbally,but in the attempt to talk around it, eastern literature speaks repeatedly of dancing energy and transient impermanent forms.
This is strikingly similar to the picture physical reality emerging from high-energy particle physics. Buddhist literature does not speak of learning new things about reality, but about removing veils of ignorance that stand between us and what we already are.

[ulli]

Maybe I could add this to the conversation about the mind.
Many people operate totally from the mind, relying on it, not yet aware enough that it is merely a tool.
And that there is a higher entity, which is hidden, not as a shadow, in a shadowy world, but a real being.
This being is the passenger in the carriage, of which the coachman represents the mind.
Removing mind would mean leaving the carriage driverless, and perhaps relying on the horses to find the way.
Brought this image up before and have yet to find a better metaphor.

It's about the orderliness of everything...Tom Lescher was talking about that this week.

When the mind is used as a tool it can be maintained and used as is necessary...
silences can be used with equal ease as humour, or colloquialisms, or public lectures.
Even planning.

I, too, have become a lurker...stopping by when I can to send healing energy when requests appear and to linger over posts that make me think, give thanks, and laugh.

I seem to have run out of words and found myself with little to nothing left to say. Perhaps it was a feeling that many here have found their "niche"...Ulli with her knowledge of astrology and Ba'hai teachings, Astrid sharing her path of shamanism, Carmody, Modwiz, WCBD, anotherBob and so many others rich in their own knowledge of different paths...whereas I have never followed a particular path to such depths.

Such is my life. I enjoy "being", allowing things to unfold as they will moment to moment, and discovering the presents/presence along the way...following this path for a while until another reveals itself as ripe for exploring. I know a little about a lot of things...just enough to be dangerous, lol. :rolleyes:

I may simply prefer experiences and discovery over knowledge. Or maybe I just like things to be simple.

No matter. I always return to the same place...that love is all that matters, that all traces of fear need be eliminated, that energies are rising exponentially, that it's an amazing ride I don't want to miss a minute of, and that all else is just 'gravy'. What a great time to be alive!

I may not post very often, but I feel a connectedness to all in the Village Here and Now and appreciate each and every one of you for being and sharing.

Love you all.

And we love you, too, Belle. Ok, I admit the initial rules have been changed.
If I were to follow them I would again mention the noise of the river, the humming of the fridge, the fact that I feel no aches and pains at this moment....
but overall am experiencing a sense of peace and comfort that I feel everytime Anita, my weekly maid, is here and cleans house for me.

This may then get censored by another part of me that is compelled to contribute something new to the other Villagers,
so as not to bore them. After all, we have something good going here, and entertainment does factor in when it comes to unity. As does mutual support.

I think it is nice that we are discussing these issues, especially as we just yesterday passed the 400,000 views mark and I didn't even notice until now.

This came to mind: 1983, "Out on a Limb," Shirley MacLaine where she lets go of the steering wheel on a winding road. That was confirmation of knowing the impossible was possible.

That Shirley MacLaine metaphor is a bit different altogether,
as it is designed for people who are still inside their social programming.
That's who Shirley MacLaine was trying to reach and wake up.
To introduce her ideas of letting go, and trusting higher spirit.
This is a phase everyone has to pass through...empty the old cup, before adding new wine, or coffee or whatever....

My metaphor is for those who have already connected with their spirit,
let go of parental and societal control...
and are now studying the self as is, and exploring self awareness...
so that they can learn to distinguish between body, feelings thoughts...etc.

In the end the entity studying becomes the real self, in charge, and can take over from the ego driven driver.

So they are two entirely different things and mixing them misses the point each one wants to make ...
as there are different levels.

Talking of levels...most misunderstandings on a forum like this stem from levels being mixed up....

even two people with years of spiritual training might be talking at each other,
and yet one is still speaking with their 3 D self, trying to make a valid 3 D point,
while the other comes from stratospheric heights. So it is hard for them to be on the same page
unless each announce to the other where they are coming from.

And just a short while later their roles are reversed, they have switched positions.
Because no one is in any given dimension for long these days.
We just have to watch out where we are in the here and now, and who we are talking to.

[ulli]

Buñuel and Philip K. Dick became friends.


Wow, Dan33, where do you find these things?
And this shows exactly the point I was trying to make just now...when different dimensions get mixed up.

[RunningDeer]

This being is the passenger in the carriage, of which the coachman represents the mind.
Removing mind would mean leaving the carriage driverless, and perhaps relying on the horses to find the way.
Brought this image up before and have yet to find a better metaphor.


Beautiful metaphor, Ulli.

This came to mind: 1983, "Out on a Limb," Shirley MacLaine where she lets go of the steering wheel on a winding road. That was confirmation of knowing the impossible was possible.

That Shirley MacLaine metaphor is a bit different altogether,
as it is designed for people who are still inside their social programming.
That's who Shirley MacLaine was trying to reach and wake up.
To introduce her ideas of letting go, and trusting higher spirit.
This is a phase everyone has to pass through...empty the old cup, before adding new wine, or coffee or whatever....

My metaphor is for those who have already connected with their spirit,
let go of parental and societal control...
and are now studying the self as is, and exploring self awareness...
so that they can learn to distinguish between body, feelings thoughts...etc.

In the end the entity studying becomes the real self, in charge, and can take over from the ego driven driver.

So they are two entirely different things and mixing them misses the point each one wants to make ...
as there are different levels.

Talking of levels...most misunderstandings on a forum like this stem from levels being mixed up....

even two people with years of spiritual training might be talking at each other,
and yet one is still speaking with their 3 D self, trying to make a valid 3 D point,
while the other comes from stratospheric heights. So it is hard for them to be on the same page
unless each announce to the other where they are coming from.

And just a short while later their roles are reversed, they have switched positions.
Because no one is in any given dimension for long these days.
We just have to watch out where we are in the here and now, and who we are talking to.

It was just a visual that popped in my head while reading your metaphor. No comparison. It's just how this brain works. A stream of clicking ideas and visuals. Good information here.

[Carmody]

These days, my son generally has paint somewhere on his person, every day when I get home from work. And we are usually playing in puddles when the sun is setting, as the garden gets it's water and the old hoses make random puddles across the yard.

I contend that many of us, not just you and I, are having our here and nows mixed together like so much temper paint, on the flip side. I seem to be observing this both on the forum and in life all around. I have witnessed more psychic phenomena in the last few months than all the years previous. At the moment I am remembering Neptune in Pisces.

Question: is the difference between sidreal astrology and tropical astrology significant?

http://projectavalon.net/forum4/attachment.php?attachmentid=17013&d=1340302275

I know sidreal astrology is based upon the current location of the stars while tropical is not.

http://projectavalon.net/forum4/attachment.php?attachmentid=17012&d=1340302275

I would really hate to have to get rid of the scorpio tattoo on my back.

Question: is the difference between sidreal astrology and tropical astrology significant?




Keep your tattoo...I'm sure you are Scorpio.
The constellations were just road signs at the time astrology was first introduced to humanity.
The real basis has nothing to do with the labels pinned on a few fixed stars, as the energies are far greater...going all the way to infinity.
The spring equinox with 0 degrees Aries is when the astro year begins...and it's all geometry from there on.

I use sidereal as I found it the most accurate. It' so long ago that I now can no longer remember exactly why I do.

The best way is to practice on people whose lives you know really well, like relatives. Then you find out how it works...and can check your findings against your observations of their lives.


I found this page, and had a quick glance...but don't have the time to read through it all.
Looks like it gives a more detailed explanation than I could have come up with.

I have an astrology question Ulli. I've been looking at my chart as a way to learn astrology, and I noticed an oppositional transit on my natal chart.

Uranus 0 degrees 34' retrograde Cancer, opposing Jupiter 29' 23 degrees Sag. The blurb I found on it says, "Uranus Transits Opposition Jupiter
*Daily concerns and worries fade during this time period, and you become motivated by the need to become free of restrictions, obligations, and responsibilities.

+A restless time, which could find you trying new and unexpected ideas at the expense of the status quo, especially your career. You may feel like breaking out, getting away from the path you have taken up to now. Sudden breaks from the routine."

(Can't quite see that my daily worries and concerns fade ... ) (but yes, I was damn glad to retire early from my "career" LOL! )

Also what does it mean that it occurs in my rising sign, Cancer?

Thanks, Sierra :hug:

Thanks, Sierra :hug:
The way to understand transits is like this: you take your birth chart...something which is fixed for life. Then you look at the planets as they are today, or any day you wish yo examine
and then you compare the angles to the birth position.
So since you were born with Uranus right at the beginning of Cancer, and the sun is now entering that sign, the sun will be conjunct your Natal Uranus. Not opposite. No opposition in your chart at the moment. The sun passing one's Uranus like this will happen once a year, and nearly always just after the summer solstice..every year it's the same.
Then take a list of Uranian key words like
Uranus=Aquarus
Uranus =innovation
Uranus=surprises
Uranus=shocks

the list is a bit longer, but just to give you an idea.
During this transit there will come to play any one or even all of those issues, but will only last two days at the most.

I checked and the current Pluto/Uranus square will not affect you directly.
Saturn has also passed your sun, which should come as a relief, but is at the moment making a right angle
to your natal Jupiter, and that can make you feel a bit confined and down, but don't worry...it won't last long.

[Belle]

And we love you, too, Belle. Ok, I admit the initial rules have been changed.
If I were to follow them I would again mention the noise of the river, the humming of the fridge, the fact that I feel no aches and pains at this moment....
but overall am experiencing a sense of peace and comfort that I feel everytime Anita, my weekly maid, is here and cleans house for me.

This may then get censored by another part of me that is compelled to contribute something new to the other Villagers,
so as not to bore them. After all, we have something good going here, and entertainment does factor in when it comes to unity. As does mutual support.

I think it is nice that we are discussing these issues, especially as we just yesterday passed the 400,000 views mark and I didn't even notice until now.

Imo, this thread has evolved organically, as it well should. All things must grow and blossom or stagnation sets in and a slow, lingering death occurs.

I was trying to share the reason for my lack of posts, obviously poorly done. I must say that it did take a while to understand why I had so little to contribute. But it comes down to the fact that so many Villagers have so much to teach and add, and I am not one of them....and that's okay. It's just a matter of who I am and how I function.

Of what interest is there that I've noticed the leaves on all my plants are raised much higher toward and following the sun, like they were receiving something extra that they wanted more of...and that I'm beginning to feel the same way. Or that, though I've noticed the suns movement across the sky changing a bit for the last few years, this year I have had to move my garden since the areas that were once in full sun now get mostly shade. Or that what I focus on is manifesting at an incredible rate of speed. Or that when I raise my vibration before encountering others, dark shadows speed past me and leave the area.

I don't understand what causes these things to exist and I don't really need to understand. I'm happy just to observe as objectively as possible, and remain in awe of the many connections between nature and spirituality, for the energies of both are growing and changing.

I don't feel "left behind"...I am grateful that the evolution of this thread has caused a part of myself I hadn't understood before to be revealed.

At risk of sounding cliche...it is what it is and it's all good.

I think there are many of us who might express something similar.

[Mark]

You explain it all so wonderfully Ulli. Thank you!

To the extent that personality is malleable and the zodiacal chart is like the physical wiring of the body which is like our hard-drive, while the mind and will-power is the software that can over-ride the hardware if it becomes necessary, I have always 'fit' my Natal chart, being Sun and Ascendant in Scorpio, Moon in Libra with about 3 more signs in Scorpio throughout. Learning about Sidreal astrology and that, in that system, my birthday on November 1st would be considered Libra, put me in a sort of a panic as to whether or not it was some sort of sub-conscious 'patterning after the template' sort of thing, as if I purposefully became a Scorpio as a choice rather than biology.

A related question, one I've never found an answer for except in a book on Astrology I read many years ago, is how the body is physically imprinted with the pattern for personality structures that the zodiac represents. I've read that it occurs at conception. According to that theory, it said that the sun has 4 electromagnetic patterns that it goes through in one of earth's solar years - something about the sun's rotation on its axis, it's di-polar magnetic field and other aspects of its energy output - each of those broken down into 3 distinct sub-patterns, and the 12 stages of energetic emanation that then bombard the earth during the year result in the imprinting of the fetus with what amounts to the patterns of the zodiac. That was a theory I've never seen repeated anywhere else. Most things I've read state that our signs are determined at the moment of birth.

I don't knoooooooowwwwww ... but I wannaaaaa ....

Hi Belle, excuse me for c'ing my way into an a b convo but something you said caught my eye:

Do you see them out of the corner of your eye? Or rather, the outer ranges of your vision, maybe above, to the side or even below? They flit really fast? Even in sunlight or bright indoor light?

I don't know either, and I don't wanna know...I'm too old.
Like saying palmistry works....which it does....
but not my path.
How does it all work?
Ask Carmody.
The "as above, so below" rule reigns supreme, and as long as any system is wholeness-based
it will reveal truth.
The only thing one has to do is follow the path with heart, not just mind.
And then try and find a valuable application, one that helps.

this supposed Uranus (in Cancer) opposition Jupiter (in Sagittarius)
First of all, it is not a transit.
They are both in your natal chart, also called birth chart.
Then there is this glitch, your natal Jupiter is not at all at 29 Sag, but at 23 Sag...hardly an opposition.
Unless one allows for an 8 degree orb- not advisable with outer planets.

So you were born this way. One thing I am sure of, IF that opposition had really been exact I doubt
you would have stayed on Avalon longer than 5 days as it makes a person hyper-active and restless to the point of neurosis.

Hi Belle, excuse me for c'ing my way into an a b convo but something you said caught my eye:

Do you see them out of the corner of your eye? Or rather, the outer ranges of your vision, maybe above, to the side or even below? They flit really fast? Even in sunlight or bright indoor light?

I used to see them in my peripheral vision, like they were kind of flitting here and there, but staying in the area. In the past year I've begun see them quite clearly, but rather than stay in the area, they leave. They flit, almost fly, depending on the form, fast but not so fast that I can't get at least an outline of them. And, yes, I can see them in any light or dimness.

For example, the first time I saw one clearly was when I was filling in for a friend at a small concert being held in a fairly large church. The accoustics were amazing, and as I was warming up on the piano, a very large dark grey, almost black, bird-like figure suddenly appeared in the upper rafters in the loft area, flew straight at me at a fairly high rate of speed, swerved away just before it would have come in contact with me, and continued to fly out the side door. I had already felt a negative energy coming from that area which caused me to raise my vibration, so it didn't take me completely by surprise or make me flinch, but the fact that I could see it so clearly did. The whole while I continued playing like nothing was happening...all I'd need is for the guys to think the newbie to the group was losing it. No one else saw anything.

There are also "opal" colored energies I see in my peripheral vision at times, but have not seen them clearly yet, and I haven't sensed negativity from them yet. There are some dark shadows that exude negativity, but not all. The ones that take form and leave tend to be negative.

Still don't know what they are, but interesting, yes?

Are you beginning to see them as well, Rahkyt?

Where the sun don't shine....

[1inMany]

This has been a momentus day. Life-changing. M remembered who she is. Who she really is. I have never experienced anything so inspiring and so beautiful in my entire life.

We were talking in the car on the trip to the city. She is an amazing person, and sometimes car trips avail themselves for deep conversations. She asks me tons of questions, and depending on my own situation I can let the answers flow or, well, not. She always leads, I follow. Today's questions started with good and evil and what I would call lower vibrational people who she has experienced. That led to an introduction for her about the Law of Free Will, how this law was sidestepped, and how it will be re-established. She is trying to make sense of painful events in her life which has been impacted by those not adhering to the Law of Free Will. This led to her powerful intuition, and educating her on the power or exercising her own Free Will. We touched on the fact that beyond good and evil is their Unity in Source, but she isn't ready for that yet. So we backed up to Free Will. That led to questions and discussion about who she is verses what she does. Nothing she has ever done or that has been done to her, no decision she has made or that has been made for her in her human life, has any impact whatsoever on who she is.

That led to who is with her in spirit form. That led to how much love they feel for her, and that judgment is absent. Who she is...is a beautiful, loving, light. And she is never, ever alone. She became overwhelmed with emotion, she could not contain the tears. I had goose bumps several times, and she had funny flittery feelings in her stomach. That led to her figuring out that the funny flitters and tears are her angels touching her, her spirit helpers...her higher self. She, apparently, has been attacked psychically on many occasions, but now has identified the physical and spiritual sensations of this and knows what to do should it ever happen again. And, she knows how to contact who she needs should she not be able to fend it off by herself.

Becoming the channel for loving beings and messages was the single most rewarding and wonderful experience EVER! Things starting making sense...something a woman said to me several years ago...an event in my life here, a memory there...an energy once felt...

I hope with all that I am that this doesn't go away. I want to be able to do something like this-be this person- that enables all the pieces to fit together for me, but that is so unexplainably bigger than that.

I will not wonder today. I know. Things are changing. And they are more beautiful than the most vivid imagination can perceive.

So Much Love,

[another bob]

So Much Love,

I cheer for you, Sister, in your realization! How wonderful to experience this priceless treasure of our own true nature!

Remember, trying to hold on to any experience creates a sense of dilemma in the mind, so rather than clinging in fear that it might be transitory, just allow it to reveal itself for what it is, and let it change and modify itself too. In this way, the expression will evolve and be a continual source of revelation, rather than a happy memory you spend years trying to recapture, once it dissipates.

All Blessings to you today, on this excellent occasion!

Oh, I wish I could describe this experience. There is a vast expanse of living, organic existence just beyond the five senses. It is not visualization or imagination. It is not timid, but waiting patiently...silently. I can see it. I know it is there. It is beautiful. I'm the one in awe. I know there are no words, because while I rather pathetically substitute slang for English, there is an extensive vocabulary from which to draw. There are no words.

I was conscious of driving the car, but my consciousness was in this vast body of beauty and love. And in an instant, I understood what was being said, relayed not by me but through me. The movement through me has left me both exhausted and exhilarated. This plane of existence...I cannot touch it with my hands, for I can only touch height and depth. This place, these beings, are just beyond that. A floating place...

Oh, I am left with the desire to never leave...

I had already felt a negative energy coming from that area which caused me to raise my vibration, so it didn't take me completely by surprise or make me flinch, but the fact that I could see it so clearly did. The whole while I continued playing like nothing was happening...all I'd need is for the guys to think the newbie to the group was losing it. No one else saw anything.

There are also "opal" colored energies I see in my peripheral vision at times, but have not seen them clearly yet, and I haven't sensed negativity from them yet. There are some dark shadows that exude negativity, but not all. The ones that take form and leave tend to be negative.

Still don't know what they are, but interesting, yes?

Are you beginning to see them as well, Rahkyt?

i have been able to see such things since I was little. Well, let me amend that. I can remember being in bed as a small child and sensing a presence in the room with me and knowing it was the shadows. I never thought it was monsters, I knew it was the shadows that were the source of the consciousness that was close by. Those memories correspond with the onset of sleep paralysis, when I was about 8, 9 years old. Repressed the memory of that knowledge for decades but relatively recent events have opened me up again. Now I see all kinds of things out of my peripheral vision, things flying overhead, things sitting in corners, things going in and out of walls. My meditation sessions get all hazy white, the ground moves, furniture bends shapes energetic forms come out of the floor and go through the roof, milky things float past me (I generally meditate with my eyes open) and, when I close my eyes, geometric patterns and waves and blobs of energy do all kinds of crazy gyrations. Very helpful in my energy work, but it can be a bit distracting when you're doing or saying something then whip your head around to catch what apparently cannot be seen directly.

On the tv show, Fringe, Dr. Bishop once said that dimensions are different degrees distant from direct vision, he said 90 degrees, I think, which means that seeing things out of the corner of our eyes means we are seeing into the next closest dimension or something to that effect. I've read that elsewhere as well, but I went looking for the source a couple weeks ago but couldn't find one. Maybe someone here knows?

I don't know what any of the stuff I see is for sure. But I know a lot of it is conscious and intelligent.

The "as above, so below" rule reigns supreme, and as long as any system is wholeness-based
it will reveal truth.
The only thing one has to do is follow the path with heart, not just mind.
And then try and find a valuable application, one that helps.

Yes!

You explain it all so wonderfully Ulli. Thank you!

To the extent that personality is malleable and the zodiacal chart is like the physical wiring of the body which is like our hard-drive, while the mind and will-power is the software that can over-ride the hardware if it becomes necessary, I have always 'fit' my Natal chart, being Sun and Ascendant in Scorpio, Moon in Libra with about 3 more signs in Scorpio throughout. Learning about Sidreal astrology and that, in that system, my birthday on November 1st would be considered Libra, put me in a sort of a panic as to whether or not it was some sort of sub-conscious 'patterning after the template' sort of thing, as if I purposefully became a Scorpio as a choice rather than biology.

A related question, one I've never found an answer for except in a book on Astrology I read many years ago, is how the body is physically imprinted with the pattern for personality structures that the zodiac represents. I've read that it occurs at conception. According to that theory, it said that the sun has 4 electromagnetic patterns that it goes through in one of earth's solar years - something about the sun's rotation on its axis, it's di-polar magnetic field and other aspects of its energy output - each of those broken down into 3 distinct sub-patterns, and the 12 stages of energetic emanation that then bombard the earth during the year result in the imprinting of the fetus with what amounts to the patterns of the zodiac. That was a theory I've never seen repeated anywhere else. Most things I've read state that our signs are determined at the moment of birth.

I don't knoooooooowwwwww ... but I wannaaaaa ....

Some forms of astrology are designed around the moment of conception.

Moment of conception or variation of conception as related to gestation time (conception to birth), varies by approximately +/- 7% or 8%. Or, a swing of 15% as a sum total variation.

Astrology has an accuracy hit rate of 85%

Note the close correlation of the two numbers....

Good Night Village,

p.s. we'll see if I can sleep after such an amazing day...

[Guest]

Today for about ten minutes I felt little earthquake tremors.... enough that the curtains moved and the house creaked.
ten minutes is a long time considering large earthquakes usually last 30 to 60 secs.

I have 3 Saturn transits -2 squares and an opposition -feeling a little moody
and a Venus square -minor just not over indulging....

Belle, in the book "The Active Side of Infinity" by Carlos Castaneda, Carlos and Don Juan have a dialogue about the "shadows" they call them flyers. The Old Seers discovered them and said they are a foreign entity to this plane -3rd dimensional astral-earth-plane. If you haven't read the book it's really good.

Anyway...later ...alligator.

[modwiz]

I don't feel "left behind"...I am grateful that the evolution of this thread has caused a part of myself I hadn't understood before to be revealed.

At risk of sounding cliche...it is what it is and it's all good.

I just want to say thank you to every single statement in this post. And add one more thing...in view of this theory that not only is beauty in the eye of the beholder, so also is everything else. And you noticing organic growth here means that you have grown as well, and knowing that just "made my day", to stay with the theme of cliches.

I hope Modwiz gets a good laugh out of this when he comes back, and doesn't take it " the wrong way"... Hehe....

:p I will concede there is excellent usage of cliche when the cliche is mindfully chosen with some degree of awareness instead of the tedious habit many employ of using cliche in lieu of forming a thought of their own in response and/or conversation.

My pique at overmuch cliche usage is because I see it as part and parcel (a mini cliche for you Ulli) of the "Great Somnambulance" that allows for a tiny group of psychopaths to enforce so much misery on us and Gaia.

Many years ago I went to see a well known astrologist. The days when boyfriends/jobs/wealth were all consuming. She is very thorough and the day before my appointment, her assistant called to tell me that my chart was a little wonky and wondered if I had the exact time of birth, and couldn't I please check. I advised her that I have my birth certificate and the time was indeed correct. I did not share that I had a twin, then. The next day, when I arrived, it was her first question. Natural birth, I am 7 minutes older. Overlapping happens.
Anyhoo, even though we may look the same, enjoy similar things, and are best friends, our energetic signatures differ. And we did not have parallel experiences.
Having both attended the same enneagram workshop: Revealing the strategy of the ego, we were allocated different labels too: me the social 8, and my sister the social 6.
So my theory is: its a seed pattern, illustrating an individual’s potential. Facing contrasting challenges, we experience diverse lessons. Choices also define the path.

Hi Carmody, thank you for this,

Note the close correlation of the two numbers....

My only issue with conception-based astrology is that people don't always come in 9 months. My son, for instance, was supposed to come October 31st, the day before my b-day, but came early, Sept 30th. So no scorpio boy b-day on Halloween, instead a squawling Libra, loveable and loud. I guess it's not really an issue, just seeking clarity and making sure he is what he is and we all are what we are.

Which, according to Ulli - corroborated by my inner resonance engine - is always the case anyway. Guess it's the technician in me always wanting to know the nuts and bolts ...

Hi Nora, thanks for this note. That is one of my favorite books of his, one that quite a number of us here in PA have discussed over the months and years I suppose. In discussions over the past while, some few of us came to wonder if Castenada's Flyers were the same as the Archons since the definition of them both as being inorganic and other similarities existed. And recently, a lot of the channeling folks are saying that the Archons are gone, vanquished, kaput, at least in the near-Astral. I don't know what's going on so I'm refraining from defining or stating for sure that I know what the shadows are, although my tendency is to go with you and Casteneda ...

Thank you VS, sounds good to me! So conception was the same instance, I suppose, and birth time was the only difference. So I take it you come down on the side of the birthers? LOL As opposed to the conceptioners?

i have been able to see such things since I was little. Well, let me amend that. I can remember being in bed as a small child and sensing a presence in the room with me and knowing it was the shadows. I never thought it was monsters, I knew it was the shadows that were the source of the consciousness that was close by. Those memories correspond with the onset of sleep paralysis, when I was about 8, 9 years old. Repressed the memory of that knowledge for decades but relatively recent events have opened me up again. Now I see all kinds of things out of my peripheral vision, things flying overhead, things sitting in corners, things going in and out of walls. My meditation sessions get all hazy white, the ground moves, furniture bends shapes energetic forms come out of the floor and go through the roof, milky things float past me (I generally meditate with my eyes open) and, when I close my eyes, geometric patterns and waves and blobs of energy do all kinds of crazy gyrations. Very helpful in my energy work, but it can be a bit distracting when you're doing or saying something then whip your head around to catch what apparently cannot be seen directly.

On the tv show, Fringe, Dr. Bishop once said that dimensions are different degrees distant from direct vision, he said 90 degrees, I think, which means that seeing things out of the corner of our eyes means we are seeing into the next closest dimension or something to that effect. I've read that elsewhere as well, but I went looking for the source a couple weeks ago but couldn't find one. Maybe someone here knows?

I don't know what any of the stuff I see is for sure. But I know a lot of it is conscious and intelligent.

I, too, have always seen and felt presences...conscious, intelligent and aware. Some of what I 'see' I believe are disincarnated beings or people who have passed on...I can feel their personalities as well as their presence.

The energies that dart about in my peripheral vision I believe are multi-dimensional beings/energies who are perhaps functioning at a higher vibration or frequency than we tend to be. It may be why I see some of them when I raise my vibration...but who knows. I no longer try to follow their movements...it can drive you nuts!

This is another thing that I accept and allow to be....it's less distracting that way.

Hi Astrid,

Please forgive my complete ignorance but I have heard in the past various slurs on his holiness.
To that extent, in your opnion, which I can guess seeing as you have posted this event, is he in any way connected to the cabal please?

There I said it, yes I am being stupid no doubt but disinfo abounds, if I am aware then so are others so hopefully your response (gentle I hope) , will help to put things straight for the record.

Incidentally I have been to Inverness a few times, beautiful!

I had a troublesome night. Now I know why. I'm so sorry.... Thank you Paul. More often than not, I have no words to express what I am feeling as things are so intense. Times are changing and like EagleSpirit says, we are going Higher and Higher. Love, Love, Love.

Moving more big things today went smoothly
And the highlight was my industrial sewing
machine finally gets to be back in action
My new work room is the master bedroom which
means i get to have my millinery , fashion and lighting
projects all together. And the undercover back porch has
room for my furniture making . So far it's shaping up
to be a fun space , all it needs is me .

On his holiness , yes I have read bits and pieces on
the rumors surrounding him but I'm still interested to
hear what he has to say . I came across that post and
if felt right to share here

I guess take what you may from it
I remember watching kundun when it came out and
I thought it was a simply amazing movie
Scorsese did a superb job I thought .

Must sleep now
Tomorrow I'm building gates and fixing fences
with my ex and asking for a calm but productive
day

Love to all

Hey, Mark,

Everybody is connected, good, bad, beautiful, interested and indifferent. I think the DL is a polite fellow who doesn't like to say anything bad about anybody. To those interested in sowing seeds of doubt and discord amongst those spiritually inclined, his tendency could be misconstrued to reveal active allegience when simple positive tact was all there really was. I hope it's ok, offering my thought on the matter, when someone else's was asked for.

I've stepped in to shield my siblings from the physical blows of a madman. Learned how to deflect the pain in my mind while the physical body stumbled about. But I never mastered the art of shielding my heart, at least not for long. And still today it is the case; even more so these days.

It hurts when there's disharmony. But I also know it's all part of these ending days of darkness moving into Light of the New. So I will not take sides because it is not my way. Love and healing pulsate out to All. It's not something I'm 'doing', it's an awareness of what's happening.

Blessings,
Paula

Good Morning my family,

It's beautiful outside. The sky is clear blue after a storm overnight, nature is creating its music. The sun is out and not too hot yet. No chair and stick needed as all the creepy crawlies are sleeping in. Peaceful.

My former students, including the little boy, N from my dream, have been hanging in mind. He was about 10 at the time he was my kiddo, special education being my area he was safe under my wing. Like every one of my kiddos, he had emotional problems-labelled as a behavior problem. My creativity and genuine love for these kiddos usually overcame the difficult situations if I could see them coming. Having my coffee this morning, I'm chuckling at my own unorthodox teaching methods.

He was introduced to "x" in math, and it rather confounded him. He was not the only one, I had high school students who shut down at the mention of "x" as well. I was one to always, always try to find a real life application for academic concepts for the kiddos. One day I had a table full of kiddos who would moan loudly and shut down at the mention of "x." I helped them out of their respective funks by substituting other, real-life things for "x"... N was deep off into video games, and Mario in particular. The older kids, remember some were gang members, some slept on the floor so as to avoid random bullets through windows and walls, and they all shared quite a distaste for school (which came from feeling stupid for a very long time.)

For N, I substitued "y" (yoshi-a character in mario) and "a" (apples-what yoshi ate for points) for "x" and "y"...so it went something like, "If Yoshi needs 500 points, and each apple is worth 100 points, how many apples did he have to eat?" (100a=500) He was doing algebra immediately.

For the older kids, who never came to school with drugs in their systems and gladly left all bandanas at the school door out of respect for me, I had to be a little more creative. I tried and tried, and finally just got obvious. It went something like this, "Let's say, for the sake of conversation, that you have something you want to sell. We will call this "j." And, let's say for the sake of conversation that one of these "j" things is a quarter..." Well, the whole table of them cracked up laughing, and immediately they were engaged...because it was what they knew, something they could relate to...and of course I had to correct that amount...which I knew I would (the very reason I threw out the figure of 25 cents)...

Lo and behold, everyone walked into my room that day hating algebra, not having a clue what it was, and left doing polynomials. I will add here that they also left feeling masters of a concept some of their peers were having trouble with - confidence aplenty!

This, my friends, is why I will never teach again. I let my certification expire. I cannot imagine any other school in the world allowing this, but truly it is the way these particular kiddos became algebra wizzes...

And, if I cannot figure out the meaning of that dream with the self-dosing machine for pain and death, I fear I will be carrying N with me for a while...along with alllllll my other kiddos.

Back to Here and Now...needing to mow today. I wonder if I will lol. Also needing to pull into my shell, and I have a hunch that will win :)

Wishing all your needs are met today.

Much Love,

Oh, sorry. There are certain practices that would be frowned on, and chances are good that I used every one of them. They work. Things like allowing my students to hug me, ruffling their hair, allowing them to entrust troubling thoughts or situations to me without fear it would get anyone in trouble. Of course I reported actual child abuse, but there were kids who needed to tell their stories and I allowed them a safe outlet.

For example, in my leadership/mentor program, we spoke about what makes a good leader and used many in the gang hierarchy as examples. Their qualities were charisma, honesty, ambition, passion for what they believe in...etc., etc. In the example I gave here, "j" in algebra stood for "joints", marijuana cigarettes which they all, no doubt, had on their person for after school. And trust and respect were all important to these kids. Word got around school - I honestly don't know what the "word" was - but one day a girl came into my classroom and said, "Ms. Jinjer? I know I am not one of your students, but I really need to talk to someone and I cannot talk to my Mom about it because she is always drunk and she would kill me. (and sometimes this was literally the case.) I need some help. I think I'm pregnant and I don't know what to do." In this situation, she needed practical, logical advice. First? Get a pregnancy test. Second? Here are some phone numbers of agencies who can help you. Third? Don't report what she just said...because if I had, many students who truly needed an adult's perspective would never get it. Never.

The way that I would have to refrain from all the unacceptable methods would kill me. I couldn't be in a situation where I know what would work, and not be able to use it. I think I would explode lol...

I could see what NO ONE else could see. A boy, Jn, who was around 13 or 14, was schizophrenic. His voices told him to do really awful things, and oh! the struggles that poor soul had...every moment of every day. You know what he had in him? The ability to do intricate blueprint-like drawing. He could have become a very successful architect. Everyone else - even the adults - saw a freak, someone who needed to be hospitalized and didn't belong around all these other kids. Jn's younger brother, C, was what they labelled a "selective mute." Oh, the things he had seen and experienced at the age of 10...a life's full of trauma I suspect. I looked in his eyes, the very first time, and I saw the sweetest soul. Childlike and afraid. And I reached out my hand and he hugged me. Day one. And in the few short months I knew him, he was making such strides based solely on trust and feeling safe. He was communicating with me...oh, he hadn't spoken verbally, but he was communicating. Nodding, giggling, letting me know his preferences....

And, the boy "B"...who became one of the most loving mentors to the younger kids in the school. He tearfully handed me a piece of paper one day. Front and back were full with his handwriting in pencil. He poured out his heart about the first time he killed someone...was, if memory serves, in the Latin Kings gang, quite violent and cruel they were. You see, given the chance, these kids would give so much of their hearts to the younger students with the intent that the younger students NEVER join a gang. And they came to these places in their lives because I did not judge them...the drugs, the belonging they felt/did on the street...I told them, every one, "Who am I to judge you? You do what you need to do to survive every night of your life. And because you survived, you are here in front of me today." Not a single one of them would have chosen the streets, the streets chose them. But each one had a talent and a drive, and they were being steered back into feeling loved and valued for who they were...not thrown out like yesterday's garbage.

Eek...I apologize...I am rambling. I'll stop now lol...

Well, shart, okay...

These souls were capable ... are capable ... of showing their light to the world. First, they need help realizing there is truly a light in there... One time, my own daughter was the victim of a crime at the hands of a teenage boy. One of the students in the school, in the leadership program but not one of "my" students, came and asked, "Ms. Jinjer...you know who did this? You want me to take care of it for you?" EEEEEEKKKKK....N-N-N-N-NOOOOO."

I almost went back and deleted these posts. I am struggling with this because I am a little off the thread focus...

In two years, the district had never received ONE SINGLE complaint about me. No one here probably realizes this, but that is absolutely unheard of. Every special education teacher or coordinator gets a complaint now and then. Nope. So, what did the district do? They came to me with the instruction to go through the students' files and re-code them. The coding of students was/is, of course, tied to the funding of the school.

First of all, that's illegal. Secondly, there is no way in hell I was going to stop loving these kids and providing exactly what they needed. So, they retaliated...took away special education services from one of my daughters (which is also illegal) and took away high school credits earned from my other daughter (which was illegal)...and that was only the beginning.

I fought for my kiddos until the day I was fired. I fought until I could fight no more. The governmental department that oversees all school districts (Texas Education Agency) was on my speed dial. The district got violation after violation. And I was invited to attend a forum in Austin about the process...only a handful of people from across the state were invited.

In the end, the school had to make many, many changes....and had to be educated in legal practices. And, I was awarded back pay. And every single student I had paid for it.

That, my friend, is why I don't teach.

Oh, gosh, I am mentally kicking myself for coming back to this keyboard. If you please, indulge me in one last? I promise to stop, I do. This is a story of the power of love. The power we each have to make a difference. To just one human being, it illustrates how you never know how your words or your touch will effect someone. So, please, just for today, smile at someone...look at them so they know someone sees who they really are.

J was a teenage boy, 17 I believe. Had a jail record. He came to school reeking of pot, but only on a rare occasion would he be high. He did not take care of himself, usually looked and smelled like he could use a shower. And, oh, did he need to brush his teeth. I saw him doodling one day, he was drawing skulls and marijuana leaves and guns dripping with blood. The kid could draw. I asked him what he wanted to do after high school. He thought maybe do tattoos. So, I asked to see more of his work. He brought in all these scraps of notebook paper, ripped off of all kinds of papers. I gave him a 2" blue binder and some sheet protectors, and we made a portfolio. I asked if was looking at any tattoo places to see about internships. He didn't have a clue what these were, and became...well...excited at the prospect. He didn't care if he would be paid, and was really excited that he could have a future...especially one he would enjoy and make money at doing.

I asked about this future he had just imagined...where would he live? He talked of leaving the ghetto, living maybe even in a little house. He wanted to leave the apartments his family lived in because he was tired of finding his friends shot or stabbed to death, police noise and ruckus in the middle of the night, always worrying about his sister. As we talked, I led him through what it would take to realize his dream. He first thought money. But, money's everywhere, that's not what is stopping him. I asked if he would fit in, no changes to him self, no personal growth, with where he wanted to live and the life that his heart longed for. He said no, and we talked about what changes are within his power to make.

About a week later, J came in and I almost didn't recognize him. He had been clean and sober for several days, hair was wet from a shower, and he had quite a pungent cologne on. I didn't want to embarrass him, but said he looked nice. A couple of weeks later he started coming to school every day with new injuries...a bandaid here or there, a new black eye...always something. I asked him about them finally. He had gotten a job at McDonalds a few blocks from his apartment. And every day on the way to work and on the way home he was jumped, because the only way to get there from home was by going straight through an area where rival gangs lie in waiting.

A few days after that, he brought in his first paycheck. It was $67 if memory serves, and the boy looked like he had one the million dollar lottery. And, he was boasting, he had been sober for 32 days.

I still get goose bumps.

When I was packing my desk into boxes and rushing them to the car, a man waiting to escort me from the building, I found J's McDonalds name badge. I cried. I still have it.

After I left, he returned to the previous life...family never knows where he is...and I found out that his mother died shortly after. Cancer. The pot smell was from her.

It just takes seeing what is inside.

Much Love,
and I quit!

I, too, have always seen and felt presences...conscious, intelligent and aware. Some of what I 'see' I believe are disincarnated beings or people who have passed on...I can feel their personalities as well as their presence.

The energies that dart about in my peripheral vision I believe are multi-dimensional beings/energies who are perhaps functioning at a higher vibration or frequency than we tend to be. It may be why I see some of them when I raise my vibration...but who knows. I no longer try to follow their movements...it can drive you nuts!

This is another thing that I accept and allow to be....it's less distracting that way.

LOL Yes, it can drive you nuts or at least make you look crazy! The thing is, the quick movement sometimes looks like birds in the sky or animals in the grass or on the street or in the house, but I`m starting to get it now. This conversation is taking me back to childhood and my first memories of this, and also, why I repressed it. I can remember lying in the bed at night on the military base, Iraklion Air Station, on the isle of Crete, Greece, lying facing the wall with my back to the open space and feeling a consciousness there, observing me. Absolute terror, knowing something was there but that it was not physical. On top of that, to begin experiencing sleep paralysis, my body going numb, vibrations filling me, if lying on my back, a weight seeming to settle on my chest. All of this taken together, it is little wonder to me now that I spent years following that fighting sleep paralysis and totally repressing the memory of watching the shadows dance and knowing nobody would believe me.

I`m sure you`re right about what the energies are, although I wouldn`t say that I can see ghosts, I don`t get that sense. They always feel alien and inscrutable, I don`t feel noticed at all, it`s as if I am just observing the regular passage of time, watching the traffic as it goes about its business, beyond my ability to understand. I can understand why such siddhis have often been considered distractions to a spiritual path, especially if the key of understanding is eventually included in the experience.

Many years ago I went to see a well known astrologist. The days when boyfriends/jobs/wealth were all consuming. She is very thorough and the day before my appointment, her assistant called to tell me that my chart was a little wonky and wondered if I had the exact time of birth, and couldn't I please check. I advised her that I have my birth certificate and the time was indeed correct. I did not share that I had a twin, then. The next day, when I arrived, it was her first question. Natural birth, I am 7 minutes older. Overlapping happens.
Anyhoo, even though we may look the same, enjoy similar things, and are best friends, our energetic signatures differ. And we did not have parallel experiences.
Having both attended the same enneagram workshop: Revealing the strategy of the ego, we were allocated different labels too: me the social 8, and my sister the social 6.
So my theory is: its a seed pattern, illustrating an individual’s potential. Facing contrasting challenges, we experience diverse lessons. Choices also define the path.

i have been able to see such things since I was little. Well, let me amend that. I can remember being in bed as a small child and sensing a presence in the room with me and knowing it was the shadows. I never thought it was monsters, I knew it was the shadows that were the source of the consciousness that was close by. Those memories correspond with the onset of sleep paralysis, when I was about 8, 9 years old. Repressed the memory of that knowledge for decades but relatively recent events have opened me up again. Now I see all kinds of things out of my peripheral vision, things flying overhead, things sitting in corners, things going in and out of walls. My meditation sessions get all hazy white, the ground moves, furniture bends shapes energetic forms come out of the floor and go through the roof, milky things float past me (I generally meditate with my eyes open) and, when I close my eyes, geometric patterns and waves and blobs of energy do all kinds of crazy gyrations. Very helpful in my energy work, but it can be a bit distracting when you're doing or saying something then whip your head around to catch what apparently cannot be seen directly.

On the tv show, Fringe, Dr. Bishop once said that dimensions are different degrees distant from direct vision, he said 90 degrees, I think, which means that seeing things out of the corner of our eyes means we are seeing into the next closest dimension or something to that effect. I've read that elsewhere as well, but I went looking for the source a couple weeks ago but couldn't find one. Maybe someone here knows?

I don't know what any of the stuff I see is for sure. But I know a lot of it is conscious and intelligent.

Well, in my personal experience of crossing the barrier between dimensions and time, the geometric patterns are key.

The energies cross through the dimensional boundaries by being frequentially and vibrationally connected. Oscillations, differentials. So the essence is the geometry of music or organized data, or organized intelligence.

It's vortex in, and vortex out, and they form a 'quanta'. And this is frequentially and geometrically related to the next quanta, and across dimensions.

Seeing geometric patterns is, in my experience, a key component. IMO, This is why the Freemasons have a black and white tiled floor in their temples.

Well, in my personal experience of crossing the barrier between dimensions and time, the geometric patterns are key.

The energies cross through the dimensional boundaries by being frequentially and vibrationally connected. Oscillations, differentials. So the essence is the geometry of music or organized data, or organized intelligence.

It's vortex in, and vortex out, and they form a 'quanta'. And this is frequentially and geometrically related to the next quanta, and across dimensions.

Seeing geometric patterns is, in my experience, a key component. IMO, This is why the Freemasons have a black and white tiled floor in their temples.


Tesla dreampt of geometric patterns and mandalas, every time he closed his eyes.

He was witnessing the engines of creation in their raw form.

I`ve drawn them as doodle since I was small. In class, sitting listening to things, idle mind fill. My fingers and the pen would begin drawing geometric shapes comprising larger forms, circles, triangles, flourishes. But it wasn`t until I was older that I recognized the connection between my doodles and what I would see behind closed lids. Is there a way to consciously interact with these figures, I wonder. Do they respond to conscious attempts to manipulate them. I must confess, I`ve never tried.

I wonder, Carmody - or anybody else - if you`ve ever had the experience of looking up into a clear blue sky and, at the center of your vision`s focus, seeing a vortex spinning, like a tunnel leading away from you and into the infinite, conforming to rules of perspective and the vanishing point. If you look elsewhere, the tunnel then appears there after a few moments of focusing. It seems to me to be an artifact of some sort of perception, it is comprised of dark lines and, again, geometric patterns, moving, spiraling away from me and into the distance. I`ve considered the possibility that something may be wrong with my eyes, as I do wear glasses, but I`ve never heard of such a thing reported anywhere before.

My sincere apologies for the disturbance, Folks! It was certainly unintended, but I take responsibility for it, and will be more circumspect in future comments.

Another bob deserves to be heard, too.
I objected to the court hearings happening on the Village Green,
so now they are happening at a Different Happening...Now and Then.
Still, I have to add a few words to those who glimpsed what went on here:

Since it is my policy to find the win-win ending I decided to visit the Pub.
Things are coming along, and so far communications haven't broken down.

The reason I visited the Pub and actually posted there is because comments about me were made there...
the very same type of thing Another bob is being accused of doing in the Here and Now.
My sense of justice is rather subtle and not always am I inclined to turn the other cheek,
as that would leave unresolved residue behind.

So my thing here is an eye for an eye. Better than a life for an eye.
We can give support to whoever we believe deserves it....
I understand that Songsie gets support because of her rough childhood, and that is all well and good,
and I also am taking that factor into account.

Meanwhile I support another Bob because he has been a gentleman
and really not anywhere near as bad as he has been made out to be.

Neither has Carmody, who despite severe provocation managed to walk away from the scene without taking the matter further.
Carmody is just as sensitive as the best of us, and didn't deserve to be treated the way he did.
The pub people need to learn fair play, and apply their ability to forgive to everyone involved, not only to themselves.

So another thread was opened for another happening....a Different Happening...Now and Then...
good title if you ask me.

[Belle]

LOL Yes, it can drive you nuts or at least make you look crazy! The thing is, the quick movement sometimes looks like birds in the sky or animals in the grass or on the street or in the house, but I`m starting to get it now. This conversation is taking me back to childhood and my first memories of this, and also, why I repressed it. I can remember lying in the bed at night on the military base, Iraklion Air Station, on the isle of Crete, Greece, lying facing the wall with my back to the open space and feeling a consciousness there, observing me. Absolute terror, knowing something was there but that it was not physical. On top of that, to begin experiencing sleep paralysis, my body going numb, vibrations filling me, if lying on my back, a weight seeming to settle on my chest. All of this taken together, it is little wonder to me now that I spent years following that fighting sleep paralysis and totally repressing the memory of watching the shadows dance and knowing nobody would believe me.

I`m sure you`re right about what the energies are, although I wouldn`t say that I can see ghosts, I don`t get that sense. They always feel alien and inscrutable, I don`t feel noticed at all, it`s as if I am just observing the regular passage of time, watching the traffic as it goes about its business, beyond my ability to understand. I can understand why such siddhis have often been considered distractions to a spiritual path, especially if the key of understanding is eventually included in the experience.

Wow, reaching back into the recesses of memory, I am remembering some things long forgotten.

They never frightened me...rather, they felt more of a comfort and delight than anything else. I have memory of a time at about 3 years of age attempting to get to sleep and trying to picture how large or small I was in comparison to this earth...after learning about planets that day. The energies began 'swarming', almost like a cluster of gnats, and I began to envision a large dark closet and I being a teeny tiny dust mote within it. The 'closet' grew until I could envision the vastness of space and universes, and I still was that teeny tiny dust mote within it. I have no words to explain the expansiveness I felt or how wonderful the feelings that I was a part of something so great.

After that first experience, I found I could recreate it on demand whenever I felt like I didn't belong, didn't fit in here.

Interesting.

That begs the question, was it the energies that led me to the envisioning or something else? If it was the energies, that would open up the possibility that they can communicate on some level.

Thanks, Rahkyt, for opening the door to that memory.

Those are the teachers that are called to the principal's office to hear justification as to why you went off script. Where they, the establishment, twist each word of Truth to be use against them.

For me it was being called into the office of the head of the department. I used to show `what the bleep do we know`, `zeitgeist`and various other movies to challenge the students knowledge every semester. The classes were Introduction to World Geography and Introduction to Physical Geography. Videos about Inner Earth Agartha, the newest research on climate and the sun and space weather. It was wonderful seeing the eyes light up of many students, but, invariably, almost every semester I would get at least one complaint from a student or group of students that were offended by something they`d seen in a video I`d shown. Usually it was the part of zeitgeist that talks about the astrological connections of Christianity and the solar savior. One student even told me that it was a plot of the devil, even though the other solar Christ figures came `before Christ`.

The devil must be a time traveler.

Funny that you mention mandalas, Carmody. I see mandalas, shifting, morphing, almost like a kaleidescope, especially when I meditate. And I've doodled vortexes always, without thinking.

Rahkyt, yes, vortexes comprised of geometric patterns in layers of different colors, black, white, blue, red and yellow, spiraling away and almost shifting as it flows into the distance...easiest to see while looking into clear skies, and once seen appears to remain in place. Someone once said they thought it was a visual migraine, but that never set quite right with me. I've sometimes felt that if I could fly, I would enter the vortex and find out where it comes out.

[RunningDeer]

1inMany, I just want to acknowledge your beautiful, soulful tales and your compassionate and giving heart. as an ex-educator myself, who left the academy once i realized what i would have to give up to belong, i feel your pain.

Most of us probably have already seen Jill Bolte Taylor's "TED" talk about her experience with a stroke - that shut down her left brain and allowed her to break free from her body's little envelope. (If you haven't seen it, well, there are not all that many videos that I place in the "must see" category, but this is one.)

For those of us that have seen it, perhaps it is time to re-visit?

[Sierra]

Well, shart, okay...

These souls were capable ... are capable ... of showing their light to the world. First, they need help realizing there is truly a light in there... One time, my own daughter was the victim of a crime at the hands of a teenage boy. One of the students in the school, in the leadership program but not one of "my" students, came and asked, "Ms. Jinjer...you know who did this? You want me to take care of it for you?" EEEEEEKKKKK....N-N-N-N-NOOOOO."

I almost went back and deleted these posts. I am struggling with this because I am a little off the thread focus...

In two years, the district had never received ONE SINGLE complaint about me. No one here probably realizes this, but that is absolutely unheard of. Every special education teacher or coordinator gets a complaint now and then. Nope. So, what did the district do? They came to me with the instruction to go through the students' files and re-code them. The coding of students was/is, of course, tied to the funding of the school.

First of all, that's illegal. Secondly, there is no way in hell I was going to stop loving these kids and providing exactly what they needed. So, they retaliated...took away special education services from one of my daughters (which is also illegal) and took away high school credits earned from my other daughter (which was illegal)...and that was only the beginning.

I fought for my kiddos until the day I was fired. I fought until I could fight no more. The governmental department that oversees all school districts (Texas Education Agency) was on my speed dial. The district got violation after violation. And I was invited to attend a forum in Austin about the process...only a handful of people from across the state were invited.

In the end, the school had to make many, many changes....and had to be educated in legal practices. And, I was awarded back pay. And every single student I had paid for it.

That, my friend, is why I don't teach.

You are not off thread focus. This is a very important piece of ... why we are going down in flames. The blasted system is more important than the kids. My sister has gone through the same bitter ostracism process. There are cameras and microphones in all the classes now, and she announces to the class (when she substitutes, since they forced her out of her full time job) the cameras and microphones are illegal. She works in a system where the superintendent tells principals they will be fired if they allow bi-lingual teachers in a predominantly spanish speaking poverty stricken area. She withholds permission slips from the parents that want to move their children into classes where the teacher speaks both English and Spanish.

One of the things most of the teachers do is DROP the scores of their seven worst students when they do that blasted national test. My sister NEVER drops a student and STILL her student's scores are the highest in the district. Students come to her for help with their troubles outside the system as well. And the other teachers blast her for helping. She has been in the Who's Who of teachers twice, and the other teachers hate her for it.

It was interesting house hunting with her. SO many people wanted her for a tenant, because she was a "teacher". Little do they know, most teachers (according to my sister) are horrific abusers to the poor farm worker's children.

Ugh. Have to hold back tears, and slow my heart rate.

I could tell you some pretty funny gossip re the grand jury and the -----, but that would identify and nail my sister's hide to the barn door ...

Squashing you 1. :hug:

After a morning of sweltering heat. We had some Incredible storms with intense lightning and thunder here in The East. Things have gotten a little cooler since. The scorched greenery here in NY accepted this nourishing nectar from above drinking each raindrop with gratitude. The lightning drained my batteries a bit, but most sensational to watch the fireworks in the sky. God I Love The Delicate Sound Of Thunder. Its Time to sit back with a book and enjoy my blissful moments. Nature doesnt cost a thing. I like free vacations.

Enclosed is a free HD rock concert as an extra added bonus! Enjoy the Thunder.

Thanks, Rahkyt, for opening the door to that memory.

LOL Back down memory lane. Going back that far, to the youngest ages, I have different experiences. What happened to me in Greece was at about the ages of 8 or 9 and it was the conjunction of the knowledge of shadow consciousness and sleep paralysis that began my life of insomnia. I`ve read descriptions by other people who have experienced it and describe it as the consciousness itself actually trying to kill them because that is what it feels like experientially. You sense a consciousness and, all of a sudden, your body starts to go numb. It seems as if it is coming from an outside source to a child. It exists in every culture. Some people call it the hag, a demonic visitation, evil ghosts, you name it. Mind you, I never read about these things until I was in my early 20s, imagine my surprise to find entire books about it. As I`ve mentioned elsewhere, Robert Monroe`s book, Journeys Out of the Body was like a bible to me for a while there. LOL

I understand now, through experience, that the two are separate. That there is sometimes a consciousness associated with the sleep paralysis, which is the precursor to the OOBE state, but that consciousness is more like a guardian, a sentinel, a test that must be passed to go further. Absolute control of the emotions, i.e. fear, is mandatory to explore the astral. Any strong emotion will return you absolutely and immediately back to your body. It took until my 40s to learn that though. At least I got an early start. :)

Now, at the YOUNGEST ages, 4, 5 years old, I remember groups of dolls with needles chasing me and owls. Dream-state, perhaps. Also, lights in the night and moving apparitions in the darkness. It`s all just high strangeness and beyond mundane discussion. I remember a teacher asking the class in 8th grade if anyone ever experienced anything strange before. I mention the sleep paralysis and the entire class goes off laughing except for one girl who liked me crooning, Ì haaaaaaaveee .... `

I was so embarassed I didn`t care at the time but she probably did.

Bringing a snippet from the past I found of Montallks...in accordance with going ons with You Lovely Here and Nowers, My Internet Family : )

...it is truly going to be a 'summer of awakenings', I feel...as more and more will be stepping into Their Own Knowing : )

...
We first get to fully know ourselves. This is difficult if we are always reacting to life through the filters of our conflicts. This is being in the world and of the world – everything you witness is in terms of how it affects you – you witnessing you. After a lifetime or two of conscious self discovery, we become sovereign. Knowing yourself as a sovereign being allows you to focus your inquiry away from yourself. Manifesting thought to hand is the most complete way to know yourself as sovereign, requiring a short amount of time and comparatively little effort. Once sovereign, you enter the state of selfless-self: individuated actualization focused into the world as a resource for all life – you radiate the joy of liberation into this realm from the First Moment. In this state you are no longer in the world and of it, you are observing the world as it responds to itself through all its forms. Nothing is personalized or objectified, just simply known as the fulfilling dynamics of the First Moment’s First Vision.

Manifesting thought to hand is the natural state for Souls. Instead of utilizing physical matter, etheric energy is commanded to form to satisfy a purposeful need.

The dream last night or this morning, was that I was stuck in an office, with long convoluted hallways, a bit stuffy and older, it was. And there was door after door of open office, and I was trying to escape. In each, was a single person, looking self important and shuffling papers.

Finally, I saw someone I knew, outside, through a window in this convoluted hallway.

I found a side/backdoor to the hallway, and stepped outside to join them. escape! Freedom!

And I went to the square and played with my friends.

On the way there I tried to fly, but found that I was weak, almost exhausted, and could only jump up a bit. No flying.

But I was in the square, gathered around the fountain/sculpture, and we spent some time there.

In case anyone one wants to send me some energy...I'm happy to receive it.
Something inter-dimensional happened today, and I haven't figured out yet what it was all about.
I find it a bit unnerving that none of the Villagers are posting...I must have done something very wrong...
This thread has more content than many forums. I know I'll never ever catch up, and then again, if I tried, I guess I would be reading about the 'past', not the 'here and now.'

I rarely post here, partially because it is such a time commitment to read back through the previous 5 (or so) pages to try to catch the pulse. I allow myself "zingers" (fun, not mean), and coming in from left field (like the Jill Bolte Taylor video), because that "all I got" (without sincerely reading enough to have a strong sense of the current pulse.)

But, I did happen upon this request, and I am now tapping on my keyboard the latitude and longitude for you in Costa Rica, and I am turning the Higgs Boson Energy Mirror 5000 in space to reflect some moonlight to you. There. That should do it. You are now bathing in moonlight and good vibes. Anything else I can do while I'm commandeering the controls?

I had some weird dreams last night too, was pursued by a drug dealer who was trying to sell me drugs and ran to my car. He followed me and jumped into the back seat and wouldn't leave. A police officcer showed up reached into the car and took the drugs away from the dealer. The officer got into the car and we drove away.
feeling a bit tired.

Just now found a very large poisonous spider in my house. I put it in a jar and let it go outside; told it it's not welcome in my home.
