From the song "United States Global Empire" by Mason Jennings
Freedom is not competition
I believe that freedom's got to come from within
Yes it does, not with the gun
Freedom's the ability to feel love for everyone
When one is released from the prison of self, that is indeed release, for that is the greater prison.
When this release takes place, then one cannot be outwardly imprisoned.

Sitting in bed with laptop. No mind function really, feelings subdued. I'm feeling a sense of release, that my husband will be at group 9-3 pm five days a week for a month. I need the time to rest. Not be on edge waiting for the snap. I've been merciless in response to the snap lately. You snap, I bite. He is taking my attitude with remarkable meekness. It is so fast, so involuntary, it is after the fact I become aware of what I've done. And then I scold myself for laying extra burdens on him just as he is getting started on his journey. Hey ho way to go Sierra, what is that about? I should be fading like a Boojun, only to re-apparate at my sister's house now so close down the way. And if it gets destructive, I will. Probably as he changes, I change, that is the way of it. Not sure about this change though.
I've been sleeping day and night, while my husband has reorganized the pantry, moved all the spices to racks he has labeled that slide out in the pantry, hired two workers, moved rugs and furniture, fixed one of the sprinklers in the yard ...
I live on the edge of a canyon, a precipice. The garden is bowl shaped, and there is a thousand foot drop in a little ways, down to the Butte Canyon Creek. It feels vertiginous at all times living here. Hard to describe. On the deck, I face five ridges covered in trees and there are pine trees marching up both sides of the garden bowl. It is so quiet. At night star gazing, I literally cannot stop smiling, at the beauty laid before me. The black pine trees feathering out to the sky clearing over the garden bowl, the dark blue sky, the stars glittering and slowly wheeling their way to dawn, the lessening of dark at the horizon, I've done it again, stayed up to watch the night pass.
Eyes are funny. There is a branch of the pine tree, that looks like an eagle, legs out stretched, head stooping, ready to land on the deck railing. No matter how many pictures I take, I cannot see the eagle in the picture. Only with my eyes.
Exhaling.
I'm in awe of Peanut. I'm in love with Peanut. She is fierce, and quick. :)
Anchor, you are creating a wake with the speed in which you are moving and I am surfing. Thank you. :)
Love, love, love to you all, Sierra

Jorge Strunz and Ardeshir Farah have been an acoustic guitar duo for some 25 years. Strunz, a Costa Rican, and Farah, an Irani, brought together a fusion of Middle Eastern, Latin, and Mediterranean music before world fusion music was commonplace.
Rainmaker, from the 1990 album Primal Magic, features a traditional Tarahumara chant from Mexico, courtesy of wind player-percussionist Luis Peréz.
The slides are of several rain deities, Tlaloc (Aztec), and Chac (Mayan), in addition to rain ceremonies from other parts of the world.

Ok, so I am going to put a request out here for some "help" / good intent vibes....
Tomorrow, the DA will be questioning my son to see if going further in pressing charges against my husband is a viable option...now I have come to the point that the personal consequences my husband receives are not the issue...for me, the main concern is that my son can be at peace with his response and that he stays safe from further abuse....
This will be the first time we have had to officially deal with this ongoing issue since my mother's recent passing late June. I must admit that even though both Jonathan and myself know her to be "with us" I do find the lack of her physical presence to be more difficult than I'd like to admit. She had been there from the 1st moment the abuse was disclosed and remained more of our support system than I knew until she died.
My son told me a few days after she died that grandma chose to go to heaven and take his pain with her and so she could be with him during the routines when he would have to talk about "it"...what profound wisdom for a child! Now I just need to keep that with me and remind him of his own words tomorrow....and just let him know whatever the outcome is, it is ok, and he is perfect and without fault ....
So if you could keep us in your thoughts tomorrow 4pm est, we would truly be grateful.
~blessings,
Amanda

Hello Village! I've been out of town on work for a while, I've finally just now caught up with the thread. Earlier, a few pages ago, Carmody and Amandapoet shared their dreams, and I don't think this is related, but it was within the same time frame, and I thought I'd share my recent dream. It's out there, and to restate, this was only a dream, of course:
So, I was living back in my hometown with my family and parents in a large spacious, office-like home that bordered a parking lot of the local College (PL, you know the reference here). We were having a festive moment, and through the large windows of the spacious living/dining area, we saw and heard these small crafts/ships hover through the yard into the parking lot. The craft were shaped like the now retired space shuttles, but were the size of the hover craft that Luke Skywalker flew around in in Star Wars. The craft held only one pilot/occupant. They were blue and gray and with USAF insignia emblazoned on them. Three of them flew over the parking lot, but only one of them began its work, while the others hovered and maintained the perimeter. Some type of plasma beam shot out from underneath the craft that was hovering around twenty feet in the air, totally pulverized the asphalt into dust. This happened in a quadrant and revealed the earth underneath it. Not having found what they were looking for, the craft continued the same procedure by turning the asphalt to dust in large rectangles and exposing the earth in search for something. It was on about the sixth or seventh attempt that they found what they were looking for. Each craft made a formation and beamed down below, and we watched in disbelief from inside the house as this truly enormous crystal rose from the earth and was then lowered onto a covered truck bed and driven away. The only way I can describe it was a 20' X 10' X 10' piece of black tourmaline that glimmered with opalescence as with opal or labradorite. After the truck left, we were immediately visited by some brass. Along with them they had visitors. The fact that we were threatened not to talk about what we saw was not weird; what was strange was that there were three mutant like humanoids with them, the visitors, each grotesque and frightening in their own manner, and they were the ones who threatened us. As vivid as the dream was, the details of these creatures were left out of my memory, because they were so threatening and grotesque, that I realized the dream and awoke within it, blew the whistle and exited the menagerie.

October 2012 Magical Almanac:
If you have an accustomed mode of prayer, then just pray the way you usually do. If not, then you can adapt this formula to suit your own taste and needs: "Spirit – please bring me (whatever you are asking for), and please bring it to me really soon! Thank you!" It's important that you say "really soon", or else any contradictory subconscious agendas you may have will use this loophole to defeat the spell. It's also important to say "thank you" at the end, as a reminder that the Spirit doesn't owe you (or anybody) anything. After all, the Spirit has given you life; after that anything else is gravy.

Hi Ulli : ) had to grab something from the link for Here and Nowers and Anyone waking up entirely to their own true being through intent and self responsibility and action now...
Most people believe that things just happen; or else that an omnipotent God could make things happen if you could somehow fake God out. Magicians believe that they must take full responsibility for making their desires come true. That's what intent is – taking full responsibility, leaving nothing whatsoever to chance. Casting spells is not at all like sitting on Santa's knee and dictating a list of what you want. Most people are addicted to some fantasy like winning the lottery, or marrying Mr. or Ms. Right, or meeting a true guru, and then all their problems will be over forevermore. These kinds of fantasies are useful in that they can provide a feeling of hope (false though it may be) to help get through the really hard times. However, addiction to such fantasies tends towards irresponsibility. It dissipates the very intent needed to find true happiness in life. Permanent change requires hard work and infinite patience. The final stroke of success may occur suddenly and even unexpectedly, but the preparation and toil take years and years. That's the difference between the magicians' way and average people's way. Average people are looking for a quick fix and a free ride, whereas magicians know there ain't no such thing. Casting spells is not done to dictate to the Spirit. It's done for yourself, to strengthen your intent: to commit yourself, irrevocably, to the realization of your desires. When a spell is cast, it always comes true. The problem is that, if you have been lying to yourself about what you really want in your heart, then you won't see the opportunity when it does pop up.
...that 'years and years' is reduced to a flash of lightning in these times of accelerated change
just felt the need to add that higher note tonight, here and now : )

Here and now, filled with gratitude and very thankful to be home again, settling back into meditative routines. Outside, the refreshing rain from the recent cool front is forcing the torrid summer into subsidence, and the equinox is right around the corner. Though this song is technically jumping the gun a bit, the cool weather is catapulting me into nostalgia. This little diddy is a harbinger of the coming changes of the seasons, in all its many minute imperfections. Enjoy if you will:

This week end I went back to New Hampshire to see my friend and pick up some help for dieting. I was with my daughter who had not seen her for 3-4 years. My daughter had never met my friend's husband.
So there we were, and on Saturday we went on the beach (45 minute drive) to walk around - we had a great time pulling and pushing each other - and went outlet shopping in Kittery - bought blouse, boots and shoes and blouse for my daughter.
Saturday night, my daughter went to see a rock concert in Concord (Steve Vai) with my friend's husband. My friend was sick with a bad cold and as she has had cancer last year and that they ruined her system with chemicals (so much that she now have painful neuropathy all over), her immune system is weak so she was very sick. She gave her ticket to my daughter who truly enjoyed the show. I stayed with my friend, chatting and letting her rest while I read.
On Sunday my daughter had her baptism on a motocycle, first time ever. Finally she played piano and sang a few song she wrote in the past and we left. On the way back we stop at a Mexican restaurant, yum, delicious.
And finally we had a real good time making jokes when we pass two towns: Middlesex and next to it, on the same sign, Moretown. LOL
I love having time with my friends and with my daughter.

Friend of mine has turned Faith Healer - Pro, so we'll see how that goes for him. He's gathering steam. I know, as a person, that he is for real, a good person, so we'll see how this goes for him. I received an email about him today, so this came to mind. A closer friend, another....he decided to retch all over it, he finds it disturbing.
I'll have to remind him to read that book I gave him, called 'The Field', by Lynn Mctaggart. I snuck it stealthily into his life by giving a copy to his partner. But first I gave her...'The secret Life of Plants', and 'The Field' was the clincher. He was supposed to read it, but...he stopped reading.

This was in the midst of bona fide magical activities. What you see me wearing is my white magician garb. We are Universal, not pagan exactly, but there is a group of solitary practitioners of various paths, serious adults with real practical magical experience who tend to come together and do group rituals together around the holy days. This was taken at my friend Tracey's house the same night I married a an Asatru couple, and as I waved my wand down to their joined hands, a shooting star traced it's point across the sky.

Another reason to leave home early.
P.S. went over to check on the new thread...the Daily Hammer.
Lots of people nursing that baby already, so no worries.
And they are all being really hammy.
When googling hammy which supposedly means dramatically comical I found all sorts of other meanings for that expression. But I also found Hammy the Hamster...

Ok Bob, a big thanks to you for the Shiva gospel. About three fourths of the way through, it occurred to me to burn a candle, and when I stood up, the video froze, I went and got the candle, lit it on the altar, lit some incence, then the instant my butt hit the chair the song resumed of it's own accord. Nice.

last night I had the same ol' dream
I was running through fields of green
being chased by a little boy with a gun
I turned around and I saw his face
a shot was fired and the dream erased
I woke up burning on a funeral pyre
standing over me was my only son
swinging down his hammer 'til his work was done
turning this body to bones
and these bones to dust
taking this dust in an old birds nest
out in the water up to his chest
sinking this birds nest down in the river bed
out through the river, out to the sea
until the storm cloulds call for me
fell like rain on the soft, southern soil
up from the bottom on the first down beat
up through the congregation's feet
up like the wind that shakes the leaves on the trees
up through the fingers of the gospel singers
up through the songs where the dead live on
up
up
up
what did you lose? My friend.

As I explained before: the boring part is by design. Keep out the riffraff.
Glad you made it through the smoke screen.
Posting picture from the web is done like this
1) choose your picture
2) click the right mouse button on "copy image address". (I have a Mac so that's what comes up)
3) on the area where you compose your post there are icons above, click on the icon next to the icon that looks like a letter envelope. A window will come up into which you can paste the address of your image.
4) be sure you erase the http:// part as the image address already has it.
This was a stumbling block for me at the beginning.
If this is different for PC hopefully someone else will give you instructions. There is also a thread called the sandbox thread where you can find loads of instruction posts.

Posting picture from the web is done like this
1) choose your picture
2) click the right mouse button on "copy image address". (I have a Mac so that's what comes up)
3) on the area where you compose your post there are icons above, click on the icon next to the icon that looks like a letter envelope. A window will come up into which you can paste the address of your image.
4) be sure you erase the http:// part as the image address already has it.
This was a stumbling block for me at the beginning.
If this is different for PC hopefully someone else will give you instructions. There is also a thread called the sandbox thread where you can find loads of instruction posts.
Thank you Ulli, this is what I am doing. ( although I have a PC )
And no matter which picture I try and post, it turns into a little red cross...
Will spend some time later in the sandbox until I figure it out.

Ok, so I am going to put a request out here for some "help" / good intent vibes....
Done though perhaps too late - stuff it, I'm sending that mojo back in time :)
for me, the main concern is that my son can be at peace with his response and that he stays safe from further abuse....
Intent thusly set.
Also... am I am sensing here the contemplation of a viable forgiveness ?
My son told me a few days after she died that grandma chose to go to heaven and take his pain with her and so she could be with him during the routines when he would have to talk about "it"...what profound wisdom for a child! Now I just need to keep that with me and remind him of his own words tomorrow....and just let him know whatever the outcome is, it is ok, and he is perfect and without fault ....
That is the most profound thing I have read for a long while from a child.
I feel I want to open up a line of thinking here on Karma. It occurs to me that whatever the DA concludes will not in anyway affect the total reckoning of any "karmic balance", but whichever way the decision goes it will simply affect the manner in which the balance is restored.
So if you could keep us in your thoughts tomorrow 4pm est, we would truly be grateful.
~blessings,
Amanda
These are indeed challenging times for you and your family, Amanda. What I will say is that I think that your son is very lucky to have you as his Mom :hug:
I will also add that he is very lucky to have you as his mum, and before she passed your mum as his gran.
As we languish behind this veil that prevents us seeing the true cycles of cause and effect through lifetimes after lifetimes, we can not really know the immense exchanges of karma that happen with such tragic actions.
What do we really know?
Where does our faith pin us in this matter?
Is it even possible to forgive the self and other-self - no matter how heinous the sin and extreme the betrayal?
These days I am reluctant to quote the law of one in polite conversation, but this set from that work is so strongly relevant in my mind, I hope neither you or anyone else minds:
--
http://www.lawofone.info/results.php?s=34&v=e&sc=1&ss=1
34.4 Questioner: Thank you. Would you define karma?
Ra: I am Ra. Our understanding of karma is that which may be called inertia. Those actions which are put into motion will continue using the ways of balancing until such time as the controlling or higher principle which you may liken unto your braking or stopping is invoked. This stoppage of the inertia of action may be called forgiveness. These two concepts are inseparable.
34.5 Questioner: If an entity develops what is called a karma in an incarnation, is there then programming that sometimes occurs so that he will experience catalyst that will enable him to get to a point of forgiveness thereby alleviating the karma?
Ra: I am Ra. This is, in general, correct. However, both self and any involved other-self may, at any time through the process of understanding, acceptance, and forgiveness, ameliorate these patterns. This is true at any point in an incarnative pattern. Thus one who has set in motion an action may forgive itself and never again make that error. This also brakes or stops what you call karma.
34.6 Questioner: Thank you. Can you give me examples of catalytic action to produce learning under each of the following headings from the last session we had… Can you give me an example of the self unmanifested producing learning catalyst?
Ra: I am Ra. We observed your interest in the catalyst of pain. This experience is most common among your entities. The pain may be of the physical complex. More often it is of the mental and emotional complex. In some few cases the pain is spiritual in complex-nature. This creates a potential for learning. The lessons to be learned vary. Almost always these lessons include patience, tolerance, and the ability for the light touch.
Very often the catalyst for emotional pain, whether it be the death of the physical complex of one other-self which is loved or some other seeming loss, will simply result in the opposite, in a bitterness, an impatience, a souring. This is catalyst which has gone awry. In these cases, then, there will be additional catalyst provided to offer the unmanifested self further opportunities for discovering the self as all-sufficient Creator containing all that there is and full of joy.
--
Ra's words require reading closely and with the linguistic precision of a contract lawyer. Each word is chosen and deployed with laser sharp accuracy. They appeal greatly to my analytical mind, but at the same time I understand that these are not my words and I don't want to come across as proselytizing.
My feeling - is the depth of the tragic circumstances that has cast you adrift from all your former "safety systems" and comforts, will not end up being something that is unbearable - even though I cant imagine the pain that has been involved in all concerned.
But.... there is a light in your son that appears to be cranking up to power.
It is possible to heal.
It is easily possible, that he will, despite any fears you (may) have, be able to heal - but that does not mean it will be free of test and challenge.
I realize that I do not have any hard practical knowledge of the kinds of mental/emotional/physical modes of the kind that your son may have encountered, but I am encouraged buy a hunch that there is sufficient power in him and you to overcome these incredible challenges - with one of the biggest being the "braking or stopping" of the wheel of karma.
Seriously I hope this little chapter (with the DA) closes with the best outcome, as little harm as possible, and the coming years bring complete healing to all concerned.

Much Love,
Hi 1inMany
You don't feel like exchanging some channelled information passing off as personal testimony? Too bad eh.
A clique is an apparent closed shop seen from the outside. The Village has a smoke screen, but it is not a closed shop. A more homely metaphor would be those plastic strips you put in a doorway: the door looks shut to keep out draughts and heat, but you can walk straight in. Easy when you know how.
The other side to a clique is a maze, which is a seeming closed shop seen from the inside. A maze is a prison with no door. The Village is the opposite of a maze: it is a labyrinth, i.e. with no branches, and the only route is in or out. As a one-dimensional walk in a two-dimensional space, it gives a taste of paradox: a long path through a short space.
So a clique is just a mirage for monoscopic eyes that fail to see a whole dimension where there is no inside/outside. But as our friend Marcel Proust says, "We don't receive wisdom; we must discover it for ourselves after a journey that no one can take for us or spare us."
Talking of signature quotes, my Byron thing is all wrong, for this thread; time for a change perhaps. Love is a sinecure in the Here and Now.

In my neck of the woods, it is pouring down irritations. And my umbrella is apparently broken.
In Science class, Em is learning about the atom, the periodic table of elements...and how God created them, accompanied by Bible stories.
I asked her if this woman is also teaching about the Big Bang theory and Darwin's evolution theory.
She said the teacher mentioned the big bang, but has not mentioned "that Arwin guy."
sigh
Em and I had an impromptu discussion about what a positive it can be to learn the contents of the Bible, as well as other spiritual works. We talked about how the truth can be gleaned by the discerning eye and heart. I used PL's description of Jesus being an ET redneck, and she thought that was pretty cool. And I suggested maybe Jesus did reiki to help people heal, or maybe he did magic...food for thought.
But the whole thing really, really pissed me off.
On the one hand, this teacher is as much One as I am. The teacher is me. The teacher is making choices and seeing where they lead. I can love her and appreciate her as part of Myself for following her own path.
On the other hand, can she not stfu when teaching the periodic table, influencing young minds with such bias?
And so it goes...
Much Love,

And on top of that, this type of situation at school has typically driven me right into a teacher's classroom to have a chit chat. (After all this emotion has settled, I really can be tactful and diplomatic, handling things from the information gathering standpoint and expressing the desire to be helpful.)
Like when Peanut was in the fourth grade. On a test, she was asked to name the three branches of US government. She wrote, Executive, Judicial, and Congressional. And the answer was not marked as incorrect. So, I asked her the three branches myself, and got the same answer. I explained that there is no congressional branch, that the third branch is Legislative. The teacher had taught the class it was called congressional.
Well, I really don't know why this put a burr in my a$$, but it did. I had a chit chat with the teacher, told her I was unaware the Constitution had been changed. I was quite interested, and wondered if she had a copy of the new Constitution.
You get the idea...the fourth grade teachers discontinued the use of their newly created congressional branch.
And so, my girls have seen me stand up for things I have felt strongly about. They have learned, I know this because I have talked with them about it, to stand up for what they believe in...and they have learned that I do this.
So, I am tempted to march my little butt up to that school. Alas, I will not. I don't fight much any more. Plus, in this small town I would likely be labeled a Satanist or something. That's no exaggeration...

the dream, this morning, was of a chase through undergrounds and wreckage, and also a set of twin towers that fell (no 9/11 connotations, just largish buildings near each other). while we were in them, chasing someone. And in the end, after the chase seemed to reach some indefinable conclusion, we were underground again, in a complex landscape, above and below, with many portals to move into the upper surfaces, from the below area. Basically almost as many or as many portals as there where inhabitants in this underground. One just had to find one, and rise. (in awareness, is the conclusion--there are many doors to awakening--choose one, find one) (when you see through time on some level, what grammatical sense does where and were mean? Not much... so I tend to have a problem with that one.)
And in one situation, at the end.. I was on a platform, with another..we where rising..and rising..and rising....one, whom I was amazed to see, someone akin to the one I've been looking for all this time. I asked that one, if we could have that thing I'd been looking for, all this time.
They said that there was no reason for that, as they.... where me. (as in unrecognized as such)(find and know the difference between male and female as an avatar being occupied with it's associated filters...and then you can express the balance point in between)
Then this exact post this morning:

thus, precognition, does indeed work, but how it forms in you, what it is shaped as, is the real question.
Back to the story of the two sleep periods people had, before the industrial age. Where we had a chance to interpret our dreams between sleeps, dreams which do indeed have and echo our real world timeline, then it goes back to vortex and dimensional mechanical and how dark matter expresses itself within our 3d reality and our connection to all of that. ascendants, planetary umbras and van Allen belts ,astrology , looking glass, yellowbook, pyramids, I could go on forever here on the exact design, wiring, construction and so on of the mechanics of dimensional connection.
If any of you might recall the story of the scientist who worked with some aliens and he knew their time of working together was coming to an and. he asked their honest opinion of him and humans. And the aliens said the biggest problem was the dimensional or psychic stench that came off of humans, was horrible to deal with, in close proximity, and in general.
Thus, people might ask me why I might want to smoke the odd bit of weed and blunt my sensitivities. Well, maybe you might then see why. It's like having to live in the core of a never ending horrific accident. Standing there and seeing a fairly large part of the picture (as compared to the awareness of others) can be quite difficult, and the comparison is valid, regarding what one has to deal with.
That which is evil (if we can call it that), will seemingly not care, and take advantage, with no concern of outcome. That which cares (if we can call it that), will try to aid in raising awareness. If you think of the idea of dark bardos being near the earth, dimensionally and that humans, when dead, move through or past them, on their way to the light or they remain trapped in the bardos for some time..well..I hope that becomes a bit more clear. No judgement, just a simple reality of a cumulative vibrational outcome in the given life on the planet earth, as we call it.
This thing of other being me, could be that I'm to seek comfort in the idea and expression of helping others. (which is what I've been doing from the start, regardless) That the essence of what helps others survive this space, the idea of having partners, that this is not available to me in this life...that this would be an aspect of hiding for this one, this time around. That I might use that comfort zone as a method and way of hiding from the world, regarding fully blown interaction.
For in the progressions of a given being, regarding incarnations, there finally comes a time when the partners of lives past are not available, as one is on their own, doing work on their own, that does not involve the self, regarding comforts. And that the place that peace exists for those ones, is in the act of the repair or forwarding of this world/space, and nowhere else.
To a large extent that has been my conclusion from the beginning*, but the body always holds out hope, as that is it's basic design, it's basic drive and directive.
*I was asked this as a question, when I was 6.5-7 years old or so, under hypnosis. I was asked what my future was, that I saw. I saw then, what is in front of me now. (in the overall sense)

It still might happen, Carmody. There might be someone to come into your life who plays the role of a partner or soul-mate or twin-flame. I rather think the twin-flame energy can only become truly manifest when a person has reconciled their own personal male-female split. Before that happens, sure, we can meet soul mates. People have plenty of those. We each do. Folks we resonate with and have traveled with before. Any soul-mate can become a twin-flame if and when they each reconcile that inner split. Of course, pre-destiny determines that we each have one, but the potential is there for anyone who does the work. I wrote about it in detail here (http://rahkyt.wordpress.com/2012/06/03/the-twin-flame-maitreya-in-the-age-of-aquarius/).
I read echoes of an evolutionary stage in your most recent post, as if you have gone 'beyond' having a partner in your life. Is that truly an evolution when we are all One? When partnership in the material world is an expression of that fundamental unity we all possess and attempt to reconcile during the course of incarnations? Can't partnership, done correctly, healthily, when both are in search constantly of the highest potentiality, become a mirror of the Divine? Become an aspect of perfect union below, in reflection of perfect union above?

When partnership in the material world is an expression of that fundamental unity we all possess and attempt to reconcile during the course of incarnations? Can't partnership, done correctly, healthily, when both are in search constantly of the highest potentiality, become a mirror of the Divine? Become an aspect of perfect union below, in reflection of perfect union above?
Wow, brillant post, Rahkyt.
To add further....
Having a partner does have so many opportunities for growth,
not the least of which is the chance to get rid of one's idiosyncrasies,
in order to serve the whole. As a sacrifice, sorta.
It's not really about serving the other...but both parties..it is about that midpoint between two individuals.
Which means the self is still included, it cannot be separated.
When this is understood in a monogamous partnership, on the physical level,
then one can rise to the next level, and create emotional bonds with friends and family and community.
And ultimately create idealistic, mental bonds with all of humanity and life as a whole.

New Moon Phase - Moon in Libra/Scorpio
The energy is quite unique - elegant, regal, and aristocratic (in the highest sense of the word, not the elitist sense). We are securely wrapped in the arms of the goddess today and she is engendering a "knowingness." You can easily feel this today if you open to it. Today is the last day of the New Moon phase and Gaia/Sophia has been closeby. In order to fully experience the bounty of the deepening connection with her this month, it is important to intend the stronger connection now, during the New Moon phase. New Moon phases always set the tone for the remainder of the month. Thoughts and intentions carry the power of longevity, so maintain a high degree of integrity and intend to feel her presence. On the practical level, there is no need to rush anything today. Whatever you face today, do so with composure and respect because what we put out will come back on us before the month is out. Sharing your time with people who quietly know and understand you will bring peace of mind. The position of Venus today is going to cause many to come to a deep realization about themselves and the state of their lives. This realization is going to transform lives, but it won't happen today. But we are really lucky with this day. It's sublime and I can't quite express it. Just purely beautiful, graceful, and elegant. You are going to want to take this one in and bathe in it. Let's remember it.

It still might happen, Carmody. There might be someone to come into your life who plays the role of a partner or soul-mate or twin-flame. I rather think the twin-flame energy can only become truly manifest when a person has reconciled their own personal male-female split. Before that happens, sure, we can meet soul mates. People have plenty of those. We each do. Folks we resonate with and have traveled with before. Any soul-mate can become a twin-flame if and when they each reconcile that inner split. Of course, pre-destiny determines that we each have one, but the potential is there for anyone who does the work. I wrote about it in detail here (http://rahkyt.wordpress.com/2012/06/03/the-twin-flame-maitreya-in-the-age-of-aquarius/).

To find the parts in existence or analysis that are missing, one has to go beyond the point that is not seen, around the corner that has not been traversed. in order to do that, the situation may need be irretrievably broken, so that no hope of any kind remains. In the same way that to leave this place, to rise to the surface..to finally even reach neutral buoyancy...your pockets, existential and otherwise.. must be emptied of every single grain of sand. Let go of everything, even hope, it can also be and many times is a false anchor.
Two lives back, in the civil war, it was my desire to not loose my partner, to not loose my life the simple one I had and the life expected to come, that had me bowing to, or agreeing to the conscription of the southern government. Even though I believed in not one single bit of their cause.
I quickly rose in the ranks as I was someone with a quick mind and capable of being responsible to and for others. and I estimate I killed many, directly, personally...in the act of saving the lives of the other men in my command. And that all my men where dying as they were unwanted sacrificial cattle, being french and Indian and so on, mixed blood, like me. I was so torn and angry afterward, that it is my recollection that I seeked out and eliminated the most violent of the racists that where around me, in the south, in the aftermath. They would continue to kill...and I began to eliminate them. By myself. One by one. What happened to Joe-bob racist, the newly freed black family killer? Nobody knows.........one day, he just turned up dead. These are not solutions. In the end, they are just responses, from an unknowing space and condition, created by similar ignorance.
In this life, the echoes remain. Grandfather was apparently..AMT IV/A4, in one of his incarnations...and I am once again, of mixed blood.
Then the between life, on this alien planet that had no hope whatsoever of any future, and in that one the stubbornness was not broken, after 40 years of being a slave and beaten, for the most part, all the time. not even anything like clothes. born like a dog on a wheel, providing power, energy -that's all. Take the cotton fields and make it worse, if that is possible - I found out it was. I died defiant and unbroken. All I could do, was tel people that there was something better, to look up, to look inside. And that was the source of my constant beatings, that I would not conform to perfection as an animal in slavery. At any price. What price love? What price fear? What price anger? What price freedom? And so on......
Echos of both those lives live on in this one. which re-enforces all those things we think we know about dimensional connections and so on. Timelines, recursive looped existential existence, it all plays out in it's manifold layers.
in this life, i saw the cascade of potentials, and expectations of what I could have been... in front of me. And this time, I tore it all down, beginning when I was 13. in the south, I wanted that life and I paid dearly for it, as I had to go through the war to reach it. This time, I tore it all down, so none of it's potential could reach me.
So when the man came and sat in our living room when I was 16 years old and offered me that life that he did, I said no. That I was going my own way... and that entire scenario, that entire potential life had been torn down, purposely so. I suspect that maybe... she was in the life I tore down.

I can understand the limitations imposed upon a life by the genetic cellular database and by the astrological web that we incarnate into. Both of them serve their purpose, but at the same time, it seems that both of them are there to be transcended.
The purpose of Enlightenment, of self-realization and consciousness evolution is to throw off the chains of past lives, of karma, and of the stars, and to become totally free of these influences in a life while becoming a direct conduit for Source to express the highest potentiality of the Now, of each instant, through our every thought and deed. This is of course a journey, a passage through time and space, tested through experience, honed by the fires of pain, heartache, drama and conflict.
To have come to an incarnation where the stage of Enlightenment is set and all of the pieces are on the table, i.e. the capacity to know one's past lives, the clarity to be able to understand one's one basic motivations and intentions, the insight to be able to see into others, the ability to think multidimensionally, is the opportunity that we have all been waiting for, that the Buddhists call a "Free and Well-favored" existence. To take advantage of that opportunity which may not arise again for many millennia if ever, seems of paramount importance.
I'd concur with Ulli that the Divine Partnership exemplified by two souls at a similar stage of emotional and spiritual development is a pre-requisite to a true and realized understanding of unity consciousness at the collective level. It's like the difference between a Pratyekabuddha and a Bodhisattva. One has reached a certain stage but lacks true compassion and so the entire Path has not yet been traveled. But, because they have reached a certain level where they have learned to quiet the mind, have experienced Nirvana and enter into Samadhi at will, the end of the path, compassion and help for all sentient beings, is inevitable.
Once the choice is made, it is inevitable. A Divine Partnership can only help and is probably one of the greatest teaching experiences we can have along the way to opening the heart of compassion, subduing the ego and truly becoming physically representative of the Divine on earth.

New Moon Phase - Moon in Libra/Scorpio
Hellooo Free Will, fellow Carpicorn! In conjunction with the New Moon Phase, today is day 66 of the Tzolkin and a new Trecena, Cimi, has begun:
"This Trecena starts with 1 Cimi (Death/Transformation) – surrender, forgiveness, discipline, fortitude, self-actualization, empowers staying in the moment. Every transformation offers us another beginning – another step up the pyramid to our Soul’s True Destiny."

It "could" go without saying that ALL experience is valid, that being obvious to all who have seriously contemplated life and living. So of course you are right, both sides of any discussion, belief, observation, can and should be fairly represented by their mention. Thank you for pointing it out and standing in as opposition. :)

About three fourths of the way through, it occurred to me to burn a candle, and when I stood up, the video froze, I went and got the candle, lit it on the altar, lit some incence, then the instant my butt hit the chair the song resumed of it's own accord. Nice.
Yes, funny how that works . . . at a certain point it seems that most everything is that way. Mazie & I spend a lot of time these days going "See . . .!!!" and then cracking up! I swear we've never laughed so much!
The rational mind ran its white flag up the pole quite some time ago, so what's left these days is mostly mirth and wonder, praise and gratitude for this Mystery, and big, big love -- love that swallows us whole and burps up light.

Very nicely articulated, Brother!
I've heard some say that we can't truly return to Source until we have re-united with our other half (twin flame). I recall in fact quoting the great Tibetan adept J. Tsongkhapa to that effect, and I do have a lot of sympathy for that notion, based on personal experience. Until I met my Beloved, I simply had no way of understanding that at all. Only after our reunion did I realize why I even took this birth in the first place, and it was only at her limitiless loving touch that this heart fully opened. Her selflessness awakened my own in return, otherwise I would have wasted this opportunity of human incarnation on trivial pursuits. How could I have known? I simply had no experiential basis for comparison.
That is not to say that there were no heart openings before, but try as I might, they had no real way to stabilize into a constant re-alignment at the emotional level, and so became mere fragments, rather than fully penetrating the contraction at the core. As you know, the whole cumulative karmic program needs to be taken down brick by brick, and that will just not happen serendipitously. It's like a fine sword being forged and beaten and refolded and submitted to the fire, and then beaten and re-submitted, until at last a worthy blade is produced that can cut through the nearly impervious armor of the egoic persona. Only then can surrender be true and genuine.
Having said that, we can consider the matter further -- for example, the above still reflects a certain dualism, implying that we could somehow be in any kind of position or condition that is separate from Source in the first place. Now of course, we are entering into the absolute/relative truth arena, but it doesn't hurt, surely, to be reminded of our fundamental nature, which is a priori indivisible.
Paradoxically, the only way I was able to re-cognize that prior union was through relationship, and the relationship had to be utterly mutual in submission to the fire of love. This is also, I intuit, why the celibate Xtian mystics, for example, needed to project a separate Christ-meme in order to experience that union, for after all, is it not all a projection of the One Mind Itself, mirrored in Its multiple expressions in the form of apparent individuals? So too with the Asians, and their Guru devotion. I see it all as the same motive and movement of self-transcendence based on relationship. Even those who speak of uniting with Source through the agency of the Higher Self Matrix are basically describing the same functionality.
Anyway, don't want to ramble on, so will leave it at that for now, at least until the Devil of Poetry snags me again and I start going on and on . . .

And please don't get me wrong ... I gravitate to the dark to try to bring light -- this has been me my whole life, and without the re-affirmations from those people in dark places that tell me how I have helped them, I'd just be lost in that darkness myself. It's a fine, and tough line to walk. Most reasonably enlightened people have to keep themselves ground to stay real -- I need to ground myself in energy like this thread provides, so I have a chain to pull myself out of the depths with at times. I have gotten lost there many times, but oh! there are so many that just need that little push to get over the fence ... maybe just one extra tool provided to them. (It is very difficult to be able to relate to someone who is not on your level .. so something has to adapt)

Well, I did my best to get rid of it. I really, really did. And I continue working on it to this minute. Sometimes, something really-really bothers me, and it is almost always concerning one of my girls.
I took a bubble bath with lavender oil and cups of sea salt while I listened to beautiful chanting. I felt so much better. And, damn if it didn't hit me again. That darned teacher with her hatred and ...you know... the memory of that conversation with Em this morning just kept coming back.
So, I tried talking to my friends, the higher ups. And it keeps bugging me still.
I want this out of my system. I am not an angry person, you all know that. So this is truly an uncomfortable place for me, and it doesn't help anybody.
I guess there is a possibility that I need to address this crap with the teacher, but I have to weigh that very carefully because dealing with teachers in a small town is completely different from dealing with them in the city. I could complicate things considerably and still not accomplish anything, perpetuating negativity. That's the opposite of what I would like to accomplish.

Just divide your time. If you can divide a 24 hour day into three parts...8 hours work, 8 hours sleep, 8 hours play, then also you can divide your company time. Hang out with people you love, then you can be better equipped to do the service you feel called to do.

Regarding partnerships, who's to say what is and what is not, is my opinion. IMO, to think, that in the given life that the given attachment is critical to all, is a potential problem, and to think that it is not, is a potential problem. I've gone around the corner of clearing the self, back to birth and beyond in this life.... thus in my case, it may have been an essential part of the game, this time around. Something I had to learn to let go of, as it was central to my issues from two lives back. The problem is in the translation between us here - the idea of Love being centric or inseparable to the given partnership that is either extant, or absent, depending on who is experiencing. Not fully fleshed out, but I hope one gets the idea.

Despite my repeated requests it took me one month to get a particular appointment with some 'authorities'. Today I went there and was told, that I have to go elsewhere, which I intended and requested all along, but I was sent to this other place. Anyways, the guy I met only now got back to work after he broke his hand and he was genuinely intruiged by what I had to say. He expressed his sincere appreciation and it really seemed, that it made a difference for him. I told him about my work, the shifting momentum and how everyone can perceive and deal with subtle energies. I would not have met him under 'normal circumstances' or if I'd have gotten the appointment as I wanted to have it. It feels like this meeting today has been set up on higher levels. There are no mistakes in life. The only thing I'm sad about now is, that I didn't shake his hand, because of my old programming of being apprehensive with 'officials', they even got guidelines for everyone to read that say that you must not shake hands because it can spread diseases. But a touch can be so wholesome.

Well, I did my best to get rid of it. I really, really did. And I continue working on it to this minute. Sometimes, something really-really bothers me, and it is almost always concerning one of my girls.
I took a bubble bath with lavender oil and cups of sea salt while I listened to beautiful chanting. I felt so much better. And, damn if it didn't hit me again. That darned teacher with her hatred and ...you know... the memory of that conversation with Em this morning just kept coming back.
So, I tried talking to my friends, the higher ups. And it keeps bugging me still.
I want this out of my system. I am not an angry person, you all know that. So this is truly an uncomfortable place for me, and it doesn't help anybody.
I guess there is a possibility that I need to address this crap with the teacher, but I have to weigh that very carefully because dealing with teachers in a small town is completely different from dealing with them in the city. I could complicate things considerably and still not accomplish anything, perpetuating negativity. That's the opposite of what I would like to accomplish.
I'm going to try ho'oponopono (sp?) tonight.
Much Love,
You gave it to your friends the higher ups, and still it keeps bugging you....
You didn't go to the top.
Real power is only at the top where all is one.
Only God is all-knowing.

Thank you, dear Swan. What a beautiful flower, and it even has a spirit living in it...which I nearly missed.
But such is the nature of spirit; to see it one has to be discerning and alert.
This gift can only be developed in a noisy setting....where there is more determination to get past the noise.
Because without will and determination those higher qualities remain elsewhere...in others, but never the self.

Yes, Marianne, it did help ;)
I feel so much better this morning. The anger is completely gone, but the irritation remains. Irritation is not as strong as anger, but it is still something I want to expel, work through I suppose so that the issue is settled not just muffled or lessened. I simply feel like it is what it is. I accept what it is. But it still rubs me the wrong way. I can't shake the feeling that what is behind her, the forces at work, are selfish and full of hate. And that rubs me the wrong way. Incense and candles will be lit today, and a prayer of peace.
PL, that's a sobering thought. I hope I have the wisdom to know what to do with/as that ...um...warrior looking guy. Yesterday, for a while in the afternoon, I felt like he was busting out of my body. Like he was being born inside me and wanted to come out. I would say that's a scary thought, but scary is not the right word. Sobering is the closest I can get. Startling maybe.
I just want to help whomever or whatever I can. I'm unsure how to do that as of this morning.
And Carmody, I am trying to apply the thoughts you shared to my situation. From what I surmise, you are saying that who knows what has been arranged. It might be incorrect to assume that all situations come from predestined "missions" if you will. I'm trying to understand, and I'm pondering what you shared...

I share that understanding about the leg-work.
They follow the promptings from above, not below.
So if I'm down here and I need something, I go to the top, AKA God. God does not take orders from anyone, only pleas.
Once God decides to grant a request, and when, then there is a chain of command.
It's all rather orderly, the way it works.

Much love to our village,
Dear 1inMany, I am glad to see you are managing to cool off a little. Irritation is much better than anger to be sure, but the school year has only just begun, and you are going to need to move on into a longer-term mode to deal with this situation. It is probably going to involve some form of patience.
When my daughter started school over 20 years ago now, she had probably read more with her parents than some of the other kids have done to this day. She had a teacher, a country girl straight out of college, who told her to draw and colour in pictures whenever she’d finished her work, which was most of the time. By the end of the year the poor child was bored out of her mind, and still remembers it as having been a pretty awful experience.
The normal procedure would be to try the child in the next class up for a while and see how it goes, which was done successfully with my son at a different school. But here, the head teacher would not hear of a system that had not worked for her own progeny. There was no alternative but to stick it out, and carry on as normal at home. Apart from the memories, there seem to have been no other side effects. My daughter later made some good schoolfriends she might otherwise not have had. She has done very well academically - not become an artist :).
Although you didn’t sound too happy with the idea, I think the attitude of “do-what-it-takes at school and we’ll talk it over at home” is probably going to be your best bet. Also you need to factor in the possible negative effect on the child and her friends’ attitude to her mother’s confrontational approach to school – not easy.
School is all too often just a child-minding service, and not a very good one at that. And when they are teaching stuff, there is a great deal of involuntary indoctrination, even in subjects and at schools that might seem OK. A critical attitude is necessary at all times anyway.
Best wishes to you and to your lovely daughters.
Edit: just seen as epigraph to chapter 17, The Tesla-Hutchison Effect, of Judy Wood's Where did the towers go? :
"I never let schooling interfere with my education. Mark Twain" :)

Ok, 1, lets talk shop for a minute. There isn't any what not to do manual, ha. Only two things are seriously discouraged in our brand of energy work, and one of those I just picked up from one of my new students in Hattiesburg. That being, one should not ever use one's own body as a surrogate for doing distance work. Use a doll, a statue, a photo, a drawing, or use the persons energy in a chair, which I prefer, but don't use your own body or you will find yourself taking on the other's condition and clearing it in a direct, and uncomfortable, fashion.
The other thing is in the handout I sent (must remember to send those to JB), don't "booger bust" and channel at the same time. That's common sense, but a lot of people out there learning energy work aren't exactly full of that, haha. One holds themselves centered and shielded when dealing with offending thoughtforms.
Use HS and call in "any negative entities or thoughtforms associated with so and so" just like you would doing any other distance. When the funk appears, draw CKR on it a few times until it settles down, if it's squirmy. Say, I am sending this energy back to the light for further re-education, then start swirling energy around your hand, wrapping it in a white cloth of energy and binding it tightly, careful you make it so it passes through your hand- not sticking to it, then draw STC and seal it, then hold out your hands and blow, like you scooped up a handful of sawdust and are blowing it into a cloud.
If one suspects funky juju, it's never bad to do this before sending reiki to someone, and you will find removing the offending thoughtforms will free up your flow of compassion when dealing with things of a personal nature. People create thought forms constantly, and some do so very efficiently albeit unconsciously. Like Cayce said, Thoughts are things. So, we treat them as such. We don't ever converse with them, it's not wise to do so, for thought forms are ever eager to attach to someone, so few people understand this so the issue is epidemic. Many disciplines treat this in various ways, but the technique we use is especially efficient, and lends no power to the offending energies, at all. The mindset of thoughts and thoughtforms as objects is very helpful in this regard.

MIRABILIA REPORT
(Mirabilia n. events that inspire wonder, marvelous phenomena, small miracles, beguiling ephemera, inexplicable joys, changes that inspire quiet awe, eccentric enchantments, unplanned jubilations, sudden deliverance from boring evils; from the Latin mirabilia, "marvels.")
* The National Center for Atmospheric Research reports that the average cloud is the same weight as 100 elephants.
* The seeds of some trees are so tightly compacted within their protective covering that only the intense heat of a forest fire can free them, allowing them to sprout.
* With every dawn, when first light penetrates the sea, many seahorse colonies perform a dance to the sun.
* The sky not only isn't falling—it's rising. The top of the troposphere, the atmosphere's lowest layer, is slowly ascending.
* To make a pound of honey, bees have to gather nectar from about two million flowers. To produce a single pound of the spice saffron, humans have to handpick and process 80,000 flowers. In delivering the single survivor necessary to fertilize an ovum, a man releases 500 million sperm.
* Kind people are more likely than mean people to yawn when someone near them does.
* There are always so many fragments of spider legs floating in the air that you are constantly inhaling them wherever you go.
* "The average river requires a million years to move a grain of sand 100 miles," says science writer James Trefil.
* Because half of the world's vanilla crop is grown in Madagascar, the whole island smells like vanilla ice cream.
* Your body contains so much iron that you could make a spike out of it, and that spike would be strong enough to hold you up.
* Robust singing skill is correlated with a strong immune system in songbirds. Male birds with the most extensive repertoire of tunes also have the largest spleens, a key measure of immune system health.
* Bali has 80,000 temples.
* In an apparent attempt to raise their volume above the prevailing human din, some nightingales in big cities have learned to unleash 95-decibel songs, matching the loudness of a chainsaw.
* Bluebirds cannot see the color blue.
* Gregorian chants can cure dyslexia.
* Bob Hope donated half a million jokes to the Library of Congress.
* The most frequently shoplifted book in America is the Bible.

Thankz for that, PL. Very synchronicitous for me and my lady Sira. We were in a discussion about distance work and a new way of processing the energy of clients that keeps us 'out of the mix', in that she doesnt process the energy through herself as she used to .... bad experience with some famous workers who cord and vamp their students has led us int a seemingly endless process of removing the energy of the offending energy working teacher, who uses the energies of some of her more powerful students and claims them as her own ... nasty ultradimensional business. Were getting to the end of that I think and moving forward into the new energy with a more sovereign and 'tough love' kind of perspective. Im more of a 'seer' and 'sentinel' in that I can see into fields and past lives, tell where inserts, attachments and implants are, Sira and our other partner, Shannon, do most of the clearing although I will also support them with extra energy and protection form 'outside influences' while they work.
No more clients who want you to do all the work either. Energy sucking cord collectors.

I went looking for information on thought-forms. I was a little leary, as I don't "do" negativity. I found the most awesome, uplifting webpage full of what they call "Statements by the Tibetans." It is quite empowering, not to mention it answered a lot of my questions. Good positive reinforcement for the day, imho.
http://www.esoteric-philosophy.net/thoutforms.html
Here is a taste. On Thought-Forms, it says:
"Man is constructing thought-forms all the time, and is following unconsciously the same method as his Ego pursues in building his bodies, as the Logos follows in building his system, and as a planetary Logos uses in constructing His scheme.
A man speaks, and a very diversified mantram is the result. The energy thus generated swings into activity a multitude of little lives which proceed to build a form for his thought; they pursue analogous stages to those just outlined. At this time, man sets up these mantric vibrations unconsciously, and in ignorance of the laws of sound and of their effect. The occult work that he is carrying on is thus unknown to him. Later he will speak less, know more, and construct more accurate forms, which will produce powerful effects on physical levels." (A Treatise on Cosmic Fire, p. 786)
And on Thought Power, it says
"Only when Spirit, by the power of thought, controls the material vehicles, does the subjective life assume its rightful place, does the God within shine and blaze forth till the form is lost from sight, and "The path of the just shine ever more and more until the day be with us." (A Treatise on Cosmic Fire, p. 140)

To add, we like to think about this world being some sort of hatchery for evolution. It would be unreasonable to think that part of that function is not to be a sieve of some sort on some levels and ways, as any hatchery must, to some degree, aspect or level, also serve as the same.

Hi All...took some time for an I Ching reading today on my next steps...seems fitting : )
...
Hsiao Kuo / Lying Low
Thunder high on the Mountain, active passivity:
The Superior Person is unsurpassed in his ability to remain small.
In a time for humility, he is supremely modest.
In a time of mourning, he uplifts with somber reverence.
In a time of want, he is resourcefully frugal.
When a bird flies too high, its song is lost.
Rather than push upward now, it is best to remain below.
This will bring surprising good fortune, if you keep to your course.
SITUATION ANALYSIS:
There is no profit to striving here.
To be content with oneself is the greatest success imaginable.
The enlightened person has nothing to prove to himself or others, and thus may always operate from a position of sincerity, with no pretense or posturing.
His humility is guileless simplicity.
His mourning is selfless compassion.
His frugality is an unshakeable faith that he is but a conduit, letting what is needed flow through him to others, with no loss to himself.

Consider that God and Lucifer are not enemies. Everyone needs to get rid of that - that is a human construct. My 2 cents. Just because they are opposing forces does not mean they are enemies, although within the construct of language it is easy to see how that idea has become prevalent.
Without the force of separation, Source could not create Creation - do these forces sound like enemies? 2 cents ;)

asked if good changes are accelerating more and more on Mother Earth and is a strong culmination nearing...
here We go Here and Now!!!
...
Ku / Repairing the Damage
Winds sweep through the Mountain valley:
The Superior Person sweeps away corruption and stagnation by stirring up the people and strengthening their spirit.
Supreme success.
Before crossing to the far shore, consider the move for three days.
After crossing, devote three days of hard labor to damage control.
SITUATION ANALYSIS:
You are blessed with an opportunity to resuscitate that which others have abandoned as beyond repair.
This ruin wasn't caused by evil intention, but by indifference to decay.
Just by addressing yourself to the problem, you exhibit a new awareness, a fresh perspective.
This is a time of recovery, renewal, regeneration.
Ta Chuang / Awesome Power
Thunder fills the Heavens with its awful roar, not out of pride, but with integrity; if it did less, it would not be Thunder:
Because of his Great Power, the Superior Person takes pains not to overstep his position, so that he will not seem intimidating or threatening to the Established Order.
Opportunity will arise along this course.
SITUATION ANALYSIS:
The Awesome Power available in this hexagram stems from what the Taoists call your Te, a term not perfectly translated into English.
Roughly, it is your Integrity -- not in the Western sense of honor -- but more in the psychological definition of a full integration of Who You Are.
This Awesome Power is achieved only by fully embracing both the good and the bad, the strong and the weak, the masculine and the feminine -- all polarities within you.
Such self-knowledge spawns a Mastery tempered with the humility necessary to rein in and harness this Awesome Power.

I have to share this documentary gem with everyone. By far the greatest documentary ever made. It's the funniest, sincere documentary I've ever seen. I saw it once maybe a decade ago, and found it again on You Tube and watched it today, and could not stop laughing. I searched for it because I have a co-worker that has an irrational, deathly fear of frogs and toads (ranidaphobia, I had to look that one up). She refuses to watch it. Go figure, huh?

Consider that God and Lucifer are not enemies. Everyone needs to get rid of that - that is a human construct. My 2 cents. Just because they are opposing forces does not mean they are enemies, although within the construct of language it is easy to see how that idea has become prevalent.
The beginning of the Book of Job reveals little enmity between the two. In fact it looks more like the two rich guys making a bet at the start of the movie, "Trading Places." LOL

Ya i'm just a little skeptical that Source actually contributed directly to that book, or Lucifer for that matter. Some human had to put any concept into an expression restricted language to start with, then of course like any good "director" would add their own particular flair. ;) ;) What human can express Source with language accurately?

Ok, 1, lets talk shop for a minute. There isn't any what not to do manual, ha. Only two things are seriously discouraged in our brand of energy work, and one of those I just picked up from one of my new students in Hattiesburg. That being, one should not ever use one's own body as a surrogate for doing distance work. Use a doll, a statue, a photo, a drawing, or use the persons energy in a chair, which I prefer, but don't use your own body or you will find yourself taking on the other's condition and clearing it in a direct, and uncomfortable, fashion.
The other thing is in the handout I sent (must remember to send those to JB), don't "booger bust" and channel at the same time. That's common sense, but a lot of people out there learning energy work aren't exactly full of that, haha. One holds themselves centered and shielded when dealing with offending thoughtforms. .
Use HS and call in "any negative entities or thoughtforms associated with so and so" just like you would doing any other distance. When the funk appears, draw CKR on it a few times until it settles down, if it's squirmy. Say, I am sending this energy back to the light for further re-education, then start swirling energy around your hand, wrapping it in a white cloth of energy and binding it tightly, careful you make it so it passes through your hand- not sticking to it, then draw STC and seal it, then hold out your hands and blow, like you scooped up a handful of sawdust and are blowing it into a cloud.
If one suspects funky juju, it's never bad to do this before sending reiki to someone, and you will find removing the offending thoughtforms will free up your flow of compassion when dealing with things of a personal nature. People create thought forms constantly, and some do so very efficiently albeit unconsciously. Like Cayce said, Thoughts are things. So, we treat them as such. We don't ever converse with them, it's not wise to do so, for thought forms are ever eager to attach to someone, so few people understand this so the issue is epidemic. Many disciplines treat this in various ways, but the technique we use is especially efficient, and lends no power to the offending energies, at all. The mindset of thoughts and thoughtforms as objects is very helpful in this regard.
ttyl :)
But then we get into the whole thing of both God and lucifer each announcing at some point..that they each need our belief and support, via our thoughts and actions....in order to exist. The difference between thought and thought form becomes blurred just a tad, no? Thus this need to be careful.
Windmills built out of wimdmill food/juice.
Now, does god say, "you too can be a windmill, iffin' youse tries enough."?
And does lucifer say, "don't think, as a matter of fact I'll get (or make/help become) me some buddy wimdmills and we'll collectively make sure you remain windmill juice." ?
To me it is pretty clear that God has no needs.
With infinite abundance at their disposal who even needs creatures?
It is the creatures and the creation that need God,
whether they want to admit it or not. And that goes for Lucifer as much as for everyone else.
God only allows Lucifer a free reign so people can pick and choose their direction.

Hey Eaglespirit! Happy Midweek to you too! I have actually been to this website and resourced it. Very informative and helpful, although I am looking for a text to procure to carry with me, especially when internet is not available. Also, I would like the text to have to teach my kids when the time comes and to pass on when the time comes. The I Ching is one of the exceptional texts that does not, to my knowledge, contain negative distortion as compared to, lets say, the Bible. Therein lies my purpose to find a really good translation, because I sure don't read or speak Chinese.

Thanks Ulli, I'll look it up.
So, keeping myself busy tonight, I found while walking through the neighborhood three large rosemary trees/bushes that someone uprooted as a weed and threw out onto the street with a bunch of chinese privet for the garbage truck to pick up. It never surprises what treasures people throw away. "One man gathers what another man spills."
Anyway, the picture attached shows the processed and unprocessed rosemary that I am working on currently. That is one fifth of what I gathered out of the trash. I gave the over four fifths of it to the chef of a local restaurant. I'll dehydrate, freeze, and chop up what I have for our own culinary and medicinal purposes!!!! Goldmine find!
The other picture is an early fall harvest of Cayenne that I am dehydrating for spicy consumption. In total, that is the fifth large harvest of cayenne so far this season!

Without the force of separation, Source could not create Creation - do these forces sound like enemies? 2 cents ;)
Perhaps..that was my entire point, insofar as even having a direction to walk in or think in, as ultimately all that is just as suspect as it is true. As in valid for the point it needs to be valid for, and not when it is not.
The point was to bring the moment of cascade of thought to the place you have gone. or something like that. Or not!

That'll be the foreword in which Jung gives a wonderful demonstration of how wisely the I Ching comments on its own publication, which i think was the first edition in the west.
My version is in French, Yi King by Daniel Giraud. Checking out #11, Ulli are you sure this says hold back? I see it as a (peaceful) thumbs up:

In regards to the God vs. Lucifer...
My impression of the concept, and I think I am pretty much echoing the same idea as other posters..is that it is a construct created to demonstrate the duality of dark and light for the purpose to eventually lead the consciousness back to integrating into Oneness.
My own experiences, and observations of history and literature reveal that light and dark are dependent on each other to validate their own existence. In the presence of extreme darkness do we then have the ability to see the brightness a a single light...if that light was never exposed to the dark conditions, that light may never demonstrated its own brilliant illumination. Yes there is evil, yes there is good...and we have all have seen times when Good intentions led to bad circumstances and tragedy is responded to with great acts of compassion.
Living in this construct of duality with the awareness of their intertwined coexistence and having the free will to choose how you react when exposed to varying intensities of light and darkness/ good and evil, that makes the human condition so unique . And the journey into applying that knowledge to everyday life becomes our work in progress a we ascend/ evolve/ transcend into our spiritual potential ...
Now I really am off to bed....apologize if that was not too coherent...but I could not resist the urge to comment as this has been the perspective I have held onto and give credit to saving my sanity and illuminating the way through the darker tunnels of my life....
Blessings,

PL, while I agree with this statement I find it's truth so obvious that it makes me wonder about you making such a statement in the first place. Then I remembered what you had for breakfast yesterday. Poor PL. Confusion sucks, that's for sure.
Anyway, if one wants to avoid confusion one only has to make the right choices.
Like, avoid shops that offer 20 different types of mustard. Equally, avoid substances that allow too many impressions coming into one's mind, making it hard to decide what comes first, sh!t, shower, or shave.

Well, what I meant is that confusion as a state can bring such discomfort that it triggers a search for clarity,
and clarity as a state is never permanent as one's desire for novelty manifests fresh mystery which will then appear in a blink of an eye.
The speed with which these two states follow one another depends on the strength of a person's spirit, but also their discomfort with confusion, as well as stagnation.
Those who cling to either state are just too comfortable where they are, or they are scared of change.

Embracing confusion accelerates the process, for what is life but the utmost manifestation of improbability. So much just flies in the face of logic and common sense, striving to make sense of it all just deepens the inability to know, for what is there makes no sense to the human mind at all.

Good morning,
Made use of my anchor several times yesterday. Clinging like nobody's business. Several bouts of heart racing, headache, tendency to bark. No brain zaps. I'm so grateful for the chain, which is heavy and stable. Awaiting the EG. Day two...
Did some busting yesterday. Must report the absence of any worry or fear, and the absolute effectiveness of the technique. :)
Contemplating today's pep rally and whether I will go. Can't decide if I want to voluntarily jump in the middle of all that...will clothe myself well if I do. Probably will since I haven't attended one yet. Contemplating the volunteer packet at the school...same thoughts on that. I'm such a hermit any more...but I can't let that translate to Em that she is not important...
Busy morning, birds all singing, pond bubbling, lots of road noise. Cool breeze, last of the coffee. Thoughts and need-to's racing and buzzing. Shhhhhh.
Much Love,

Another beautiful end-of-summer day. Feel like writing. Which is nice because I havent lately other than what Ive contributed here and at ToT. Feeling change in the air as the season changes. Contemplating what it will be like to be back in the states after two years in the great white north. What it will be like to be back in Academia. Possibly teaching again, definitely researching, writing, finishing what I started in what seems like another lifetime ago.
This is some time to return too. Right when things are supposed to blow up. Jumping back into the cauldron that is the USA will be like jumping from a nice, warm bath into a boiling hot jacuzzi but its time. Well, i wouldnt have felt right if I missed the fireworks anyway. Being an ex-patriot felt like a nice little illusion but, as Drake told me not so long ago, theres no such thing, really.
So Im going to enjoy these last couple of months here. Enjoy the forests, the culture. Watching Sira and the boy as they look forward to a new experience and place. Looking forward to them getting to know my side of the family in person rather than on a phone or skype video.
Canada is so like the states and yet so different. Its refreshing, like whenI lived i Germany for four years, to experience a different culture, to bear witness to the unity of humanity firsthand in our similarities. To see once again how we are all more alike than different. It has been a wonderful space to lick my wounds and recover from the trauma of a life turned upside down, a nurturing space for an emotional and spiritual rebirth. To prepare for the next stage of life.
I feel ready for what is coming next.

Quote of the day: Love is what we are born with. Fear is what we learn. The spiritual journey is the unlearning of fear and prejudices and the acceptance of love back in our hearts. Love is the essential reality and our purpose on earth. To be consciously aware of it, to experience love in ourselves and others, is the meaning of life. Meaning does not lie in things. Meaning lies in us......Marianne Williamson

Is it awesome that one is happy and one is sad? No, not at all. Is it awesome that one happy and one is sad? From the right vantage point, one might say yes, but it would be an incomplete statement, dangerously so, if expressed to one who has not traversed the given gap between the two. What exactly is that differential seen, and why is it there? What does it mean? Thus it is presented as query. Which leads to the cascade.

Which is the dogmatic fault that occupies science right now, to some dangerous degrees. it cannot correct for faults, as it is hell bent, (in some critical ways) in holding on to conclusions and then basing all further considerations in front of it, on that older pattern. The inevitable is that some new pattern of observation will not fit the old systems, yet they refuse the data as it does not fit. Their presumption is that all old has been studied to bits and is provably correct, which is scientific dogmatism.
They fail to remember that the entire scientific method is based on the precept that all is theory, there are no facts, and all theory is subject to change, based on new data and new information, new observation. They turned the basis inside out, and failed to see it, they brought the emotional dogmatic mind into science, as few 'hard science' scientists of any kind have experience in esoteric thinking and psychology/philosophy.
Which is that thing I told a friend about 5 years ago, "judgement is a fools game, it anchors one in the self lies of their own past."
Which brings us back to the whole point that this form of science was borne only a few miles from and a few years from the exact place and time that Weishaupt created the Bavarian Illuminati. This particular item is known as 'the German school of thought' (rote teaching without critical reasoning) regarding teaching and scholastic aspects. Most specifically, the training of all scientists who engage in theoretical analysis and became the backbone of universities and thus all scientific exploration. That science, and universities, developing from that time forward... and thus all explorations in science...cascaded into being heavily top weighted with secret society types and their agenda. A worm was inserted at the base of the neck, as the thing was formed, within those critical formation points and times.
Thus the entire system of exploration was twisted so that it would appeal most specifically to philosophically ignorant and blunt linear types. That they would populate it's ranks. Which is what you see today.
That is, apparently..from my investigations... the exact spot and way that the trick was turned.
Philosophy and exploration was removed, dogmatism was inserted, with the type of minds involved which were purposely put there in form and function - in order to keep it that way, from that day forward, with little capacity to see or find the break where it turned wrong.
Recall: The average university/college IQ is estimated (I read once) to be about 125.
Now, what happens when persons with IQ's in the 175-190-200+ are running the show, from the backdrop? Can they even be seen?

Here is something more about the subject....
some exchange on enlightenment and a few letters I shared on a theosophy forum twelve years ago...

I know it sounds weird, and one cannot get to that state without first understanding love in its fullest meaning. But once you are there, there is something else going on, something non-emotional.
And that is what I meant.
Here is what Baha'u'llah says about "enlightenment":
This is the realm of full awareness, of utter self-effacement. Even love is no pathway to this region, and longing hath no dwelling here; wherefore is it said, "Love is a veil betwixt the lover and the beloved." Here love becometh an obstruction and a barrier, and all else save Him is but a curtain.
For this is the realm of Absolute Command and is free of all the attributes of earth.
The exalted dwellers in this mansion do wield divine authority in the court of rapture, with utter gladness, and they do bear a kingly sceptre. On the high seats of justice, they issue their commands, and they send down gifts according to each man's deserving. Those who drink of this cup abide in the high bowers of splendor above the Throne of the Ancient of Days, and they sit in the Empyrean of Might within the Lofty Pavilion: "Naught shall they know of sun or piercing cold.
Concerning this realm, there is many a tradition and many a verse, of broad or special relevancy, but two of these will suffice to serve as a light for men of mind and heart.
The first is His statement: "O My Servant! Obey Me and I shall make thee like unto Myself. I say `Be,' and it is, and thou shalt say `Be,' and it shall be."
And the second: "O Son of Adam! Seek fellowship with none until thou hast found Me, and whenever thou shalt long for Me, thou shalt find Me close to thee."
-- Bahá'u'lláh, The Seven Valleys and the Four Valleys
I found that these words confirmed what I had experienced when I was there.

Hey Eaglespirit, or anyone else, can you recommend a particular translation or edition of the I Ching?Have You tried this one?
http://www.ichingonline.net/index.phpI went there, and asked whether we should start construction of our house now.
And I got no. 11.... Peace
I guess that means to take it easy, for the time being....
To Ulli: You got a simple "no"? What it really straightforward and obvious, or did you have to do much interpretation to reduce the answer to "no."
To All: I haven't looked at the I Ching in nearly 40 years. I guess I didn't give it credence or understand it enough to hold my attention. Just out of curiosity, what do you, dear reader, think of what comes through the I Ching? Obviously, when we get advise that tells us to be more forgiving, more grateful, drink only pure water, stand up straight, etc. then we recognize the advice as good advice, yet generic, and we use it as a reminder. But what if the advice would create a very big change in your life...would you follow the advice? "Should I marry that person?", or "Should I build that house?" is a very big decision, how much would you allow the I Ching to guide you on your path?
In curiosity, I decided to ask a question.
(Background info: Because all signs point to a major financial collapse very soon, and the US wants yet another war - this time to subjugate and pillage Iran - it seems that the project that I have been working on for several years, The Reset Button, will have no chance of being accomplished. The financial collapse and hyperinflation will draw most people into survival mode, not in a mode where they could unite for this project to come to fruition. So, I have been emotionally and mentally vacillating between just going ahead because it feels as if it is the "right action", and dropping it and putting my attention in helping friends, family and neighbors prepare for the effects of the economic tsunami that appears to be quickly "nearing our shore.")
OK, so now you have the background for my question. I apologize that this will be long, but I'll post the question and the results here. I don't know how much of a bearing the "Changing Lines" and "Transformed Text" have, but I'll post them too.
Quite honestly, with my heart and soul, I would love to believe that the answer I got is real. It brought tears to my eyes.
=========================
Question: Should I keep to the path of offering The Reset Button as my primary offering?

50 - Fifty
Ting / The Caldron
Fire rises hot and bright from the Wood beneath the sacrificial caldron:
The Superior Person positions himself correctly within the flow of Cosmic forces.
Supreme Accomplishment.
SITUATION ANALYSIS:
Your needs are coming into harmony with the requirements of the Cosmos.
Blending brilliantly with the Dance of Life, you are becoming an actual element of Cosmic Law.
Your goals will now be realized because you no longer cut against the Cosmic grain; you are no longer swimming against the flow of the Tao.
You are acquiring an intuitive sense of what can and cannot be, and aligning your efforts accordingly.

Changing Lines:
There is One Changing Line.
Hexagram Fifty/Line Two:
Your caldron contains a hearty meal with plenty to go around.
Your rivals are jealous of your ability to provide, but they can't harm you.
Good fortune.

Transformed Hexagram:
56 - Fifty-Six
Lu / The Wanderer
Fire on the Mountain, catastrophic to man, a passing annoyance to the Mountain:
The Superior Person waits for wisdom and clarity before exacting Justice, then lets no protest sway him.
Find satisfaction in small gains.
To move constantly forward is good fortune to a Wanderer.
SITUATION ANALYSIS:
You are a stranger to this situation.
It is your attraction to the exotic that has led you here, but you will move on to a new vista when this one has lost its mystique.
Because much of this environment is foreign to you, you must exercise only the best judgement.
You don't know the custom here, and it's too easy to cross a line you don't know is there.
Because you are the foreigner in this setting, you have no history to acquit you.
Watch, listen, study, contemplate, then step lightly but decisively on.

Like everything else, it all boils down to the beholder. The book only assists in giving one the options, and even then there can be errors due to whim.
If I interpreted yesterday's oracle as a No it was because in that instance I was reminded that construction periods feel like war, and the interim periods feel like peace.
Don't believe me?
Come to Costa Rica, and see how it is done here....
from the corrupt officials at the municipality, to the hardware stores and the way they try to cheat you out of extra cash, to the workmen who hang your dining room lamp in the bathroom, even though you told them where it was meant to go.
Right now I cherish my interpretation of NOOO!
Sigh of relief.
Peace.
Dennis...I only now read the full reading...and your question...the part in the box.
Your reset button is admirable and definitely gets the message across that a solution is necessary...the name alone is already a great message in that it conveys the need to start over.
The answer the book gave you is perfect in my opinion.
Lots of people who are sensitive have seen that these times have special requirements, and even come up with great solutions. All slightly different, as filtered through their own perspective.
But there is one solution that is all-comprehensive and that one only the Almighty has access to...
meanwhile what is needed is that individuals stay tuned to those signals from above and trust that they will KNOW exactly at what point their service and which particular kind of service is required ...
So while none of us have the full picture of the future, we each can only increase our willingness to serve the greatest possible outcome...one in which Wade Frazier's Godzilla is not the ultimate winner.

Which brings us back to the whole point that this form of science was borne only a few miles from and a few years from the exact place and time that Weishaupt created the Bavarian Illuminati. This particular item is known as 'the German school of thought' (rote teaching without critical reasoning) regarding teaching and scholastic aspects. Most specifically, the training of all scientists who engage in theoretical analysis and become the backbone of universities and thus all scientific exploration. That science, and universities, developing from that time forward... and thus all explorations in science...cascaded into being heavily top weighted with secret society types and their agenda. A worm was inserted at the base of the neck, as the thing was formed, within those critical formation points and times.
Yes, science, like religion before it, like politics, economics, medicine, education, and the making of money, has been largely captured.
The bastards in power, Godzilla as Wade calls them, know of
a supremely sophisticated science with which they can dominate and subjugate the earth. But to reconstruct it, on the scale required and implied by their enterprise itself, will require that virtually the entire planet and its resources must be at their disposal.
These bastards trace their lineage back to "gods" who descended to earth and sired children of human mothers.
Perhaps they seek, ultimately, to return to the stars.

Cleaned two bathrooms, something about scrubbing toilets is humbling. Scrubbed bathtubs, walls, sinks, took a break then back to sweeping and mopping the floors.
Glad to have two bathrooms, like the end result of sparkling clean!
Yes, when all else fails, scrub the floor on hands and knees. :) it helps reconnect to what is and what is not. Distract the body - clear the mind.
Which is, in all likelihood... part of why I went off and did 40 years of relentless hard labour between two human embodied lives.

And the circular logic that closes their gap into a state of comfort is the dogmatic, emotionally polarized and blinkered mind. Which they do not understand was and is them, they themselves (lucifer's angel of the dawn, the ascendant, the rose colored glasses,and so on), that was purposely put there, to block the door, to understand that they themselves are the limit that confines them.
They seemingly cannot get to the point around the confinement, to step beyond the psychological version of Godel's incompleteness theorem that confines them. The sheer necessity to be suspended in the highly uncomfortable moments of extreme uncertainty of Russell's Teapot; that contemplation and then cascading reason..that is so fundamental to getting past this issue.

When I was still an elitist and striving for wealth and exclusivity I used to have a recurring dream about living in something like a space needle...a tall TV tower like the one in Toronto.
Then some tiny leaves of ivy started to grow up the wall, from the bottom...the first signs of life.
Later when I moved to Costa Rica and within the first week experienced my first major earth quake...at 3:33 am...Waking me up with a bang I knew I had come down to earth at last...making it shudder with the impact of my fall.
It's been all good.

Thanks for this discussion, Carmody, as I announce I am going back to Academia. LOL
Everything is compromised. Everywhere.
That is the nature of this world. The way it is supposed to be.
Your attacks against science Carmody are true, as they are also painting a broad brush when there are many scientists, like yourself or myself or many here and everywhere, outside of the context you speak of. Beyond it. You're speaking of one particular, culturally-contextual expression of an overarching way of looking at the world that has gained ascendancy and, like all things that rise, must someday fall.
It's a new day. Within our lifetimes, the paradigm will shift. Hell, within the next decade, the paradigm will shift.
It is time.
Science is as ancient as thought. As spirit and manifestation upon the material plane. Call it what you will, in its essence, it is the crux of our physical experience of the totality of Reality, within and beyond this matrix.

Embracing confusion accelerates the process, for what is life but the utmost manifestation of improbability. So much just flies in the face of logic and common sense, striving to make sense of it all just deepens the inability to know, for what is there makes no sense to the human mind at all. The avatar has no tool for reconciling anything, but has every appearance of doing so, it's a trick!

ohmigosh I can't keep up!!
Hope you all are doing well.
Update on the "inoperable tumor" in my girlfriend situation. Communication meltdown...she claims she never said that (I heard it), also that she doesn't know English word for "unexplained/unidentifiable growth"...so maybe she did say it...either way, she was SUPER bent at my attitude/questioning the doc, kicked me out of the room...so STILL no straight answer to WTF is going on in the physical plane on all that mess, though did get to the bottom of the thought form that I will have to conclude attract the "demons" and psychosomatically induced her crippling vertigo: Her fear of not getting excused from work.
So silly to not see the obvious, I had given up looking for her own responsibility, destracted by the supernatural side-show that we probably BOTH created. I find that she is more a magnet for weird ED sh!t (and am convinced her hiatus would have been perfect for to get in touch with her powers--I think fear of that is another part of it--from what I can tell, dead people WANT to talk to her a la the psychics you see on TV--john Edward types...she'd be good at that)...anyway, she draws 'em out, I seem to strengthen them. When I can "let go", and give up focusing my intent on "solving the problem" (that I am inadvertently strengthening if not causing), then everything seems to fall into place...she starts taking responsibility, things start looking up.
Getting a balance from the dark horus-ra thread with this wonderful (thanks WAKY for the heads up!!) thread helped me look at everything from a different angle, so that when a key piece became apparent, i was able to see it for what it was, rather than focus on secondary stuff.
So excuse the interruption of wherever the discussion (that I have not yet gotten up to speed on) was going...just had to thank Ulli for starting and Wakytweaky for pointing me here and everyone else involved (Dedukshyn & whitecrow pop to mind in particular)....but thanks to all, much love.....Carry on!!

This is where it all hinges...each time someone let's go of their own burden, or compulsion...that's when the outer world gets sorted out. It's really such a simple thing, but nothing can be harder and it takes years to perfect...its such a slippery territory, and slope, even.
Everyone here is helping the next guy to stay on track, to remember how it works. We can't rush to help physically, so it's our energies doing the work.

I hear you, man. There are quite a few thoughts running around in my head right now about this, so I'm going to air them in a very personal way using my life and experiences, hope you don't mind, it's not direct at you but at the larger picture and circumstances, just in response to what you've written here. And thanks for opening up the space of discussion.
Is it possible to re-breath the same air twice? Or is the air different every time we take a breath, even if it looks like we're standing in the same place? Are we the same person we were when we took that first breath? Or have we, and the air we are breathing, become something totally different?
There's a thread running around here about Ben Fulford's latest adventures (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?48487-Benjamin-Fulford-s-Latest-Adventures). Good thread, the guy has been spot on with many predictions, especially lately. Anyway, there's a relevant quote:
The head of the medical research team, for his part, promised to discreetly check from a scientific standpoint, if it was really true that SARS and other recent diseases were man made bio weapons. However, he may find that too much diligent research will lead to a visit from alphabet agency heavies or from the people controlling his grants. We shall see. This award winning researcher and his team were one of many who had their funding cut off in recent years until they agreed to stop further research into life extension. Instead he is now being forced (by fear of losing financing) to do research into diseases that will require expensive drug therapy to “treat.” If his team can find alternative funding he says they will go back to life extension research.
In my 15 prior years in the Ivory Tower, I met hundreds of scientists, interacted with dozens in project or conference-related instances and an individual basis. Most of them are just like Ben describes above. Normal people who want to do the right thing but that are paralyzed by the Institution and by fear. Fear of the unknown. If given the chance to do good research that will help people and do so while being able to support their families and achieve success in their given fields, I think quite a few will make that choice.
Sure, there are those who are a part of the agenda to discombulate and mislead. Some of those are psychopaths who are doing it consciously and don't care and others are regular people whose consciences mess with them every night because they know they are doing wrong. This is the individual's choice, that we talk about so much here, as to what path of spiritual growth they want to follow, or at the very least, what path of ethical or moral outcomes do they want to see manifest in their lives and the lives of those they profess to want to help?
I've got one sister who is a _________________ with a specialty in __________ and another sister who is a _____________________, who runs a corporation that studies and makes prescriptions on Public Policy and interacts at the highest political levels with actors that many here in PA would consider part of the problem rather than the solution. To boot, she's married to a ___________.
Does that mean that my sisters and others who take part in the System, as part of the System, are cut and dried evil? That they comply with the Cabal, work the Illuminati will through their everyday actions, doing what they are trained, as Scientists, to do in order to help as many people as possible?
Because one sister is a _____________ who deals with a broken system every day, does that make her a tool of the system? Because the other is a _______________ who deals with the political system every day, does that make her a tool of the system?
I know their hearts and they are scientists, as I am. As you are. The paradigm conforms to the people in individual cases, rather than the people conforming to the paradigm, especially when you are speaking about people whose base understanding, perception and way of dealing with the world comes from outside of the mainstream. When those people come from traditions that may pit them against the mainstream as a natural course of a culture's more intolerant expressions.
From that perspective, passing go from the first instance was an exercise in overcoming obstacles too great for the majority of people like them, us, whose people come from the red dirt of W. Texas, whose parents picked cotton and taught them the value of an education. There is no stale air to re-breath because we have to keep moving forward, we cannot stop or the System will destroy us. Because we are, inherently, not a part of the system, rejected by the system, and only play specific roles within that system as we may be in it, but can never be of it.
Sometimes, and this is where I am right now, escaping something means going through it. Bursting through the glass ceilings like a Rahkyt and ascending into the heavens with flames spitting behind you, laughing all the way to the next realm of existence. ;)

dang, I'm getting old.
Forgot to play this album
Same time each year....
b3Km9rq1MtM
The top comment echoes my thoughts:
my annual ritual... I listen to this song in each 1st of september...
prepares me for hard times.
winter is coming.
The sun shines high above
The sounds of laughter
The birds swoop down upon
The crosses of old grey churches
We say that we're in love
While secretly wishing for rain
Sipping coke and playing games
September's here again
September's here again
~~~~~~~~~~
Standing firm on this stony ground
The wind blows hard
Pulls these clothes around
I harbour all the same worries as most
The temptations to leave or to give up the ghost
I wrestle with an outlook on life
That shifts between darkness and shadowy light
I struggle with words for fear that they'll hear
But Orpheus sleeps on his back still dead to the world
Sunlight falls, my wings open wide
There's a beauty here I cannot deny
And bottles that tumble and crash on the stairs
Are just so many people I knew never cared
Down below on the wreck of the ship
Are a stronghold of pleasures I couldn't regret
But the baggage is swallowed up by the tide
As Orpheus keeps to his promise and stays by my side
Tell me, I've still a lot to learn
Understand, these fires never stop
Believe me, when this joke is tired of laughing
I will hear the promise of my Orpheus sing
Sleepers sleep as we row the boat
Just you the weather and I gave up hope
But all of the hurdles that fell in our laps
Were fuel for the fire and straw for our backs
Still the voices have stories to tell
Of the power struggles in heaven and hell
But we feel secure against such mighty dreams
As Orpheus sings of the promise tomorrow may bring
Tell me, I've still a lot to learn
Understand, these fires never stop
Please believe, when this joke is tired of laughing
I will hear the promise of my Orpheus sing

Chose the pep rally, and had a blast. Not one iota of negativity. I asked my "friends" (those beings who have allowed me to know they are there) to put up a shield for me. I figured I had nothing to lose in asking. I did not want to walk into a large group and become overwhelmed, as almost always happens. Too much energy, too much emotion coming at me, etc., etc. And it must have worked. I felt at home, seriously, like I was still at home. Oh, I am going to ask more often, because if I can take "home" with me wherever I go, I will not shy away from some of the opportunities to interact with people. I'm taking the girls to the city for the weekend, and maybe they will help me there! :) Oh, I cannot tell you what a relief it was to be out in the world, but unaffected by it. I can not remember a single instance of this happening to me, ever.
Ah, gratitude!
I took the opportunity to have a chat with my friends. I don't understand how they communicate, if they do or if they are. I know "My Angel" strokes my hair and she nods, once in a while I will catch her smiling. The rest of them, though, I just don't hear or see their communications so I'm not even sure if they are... Anyway, they liked that I was talking to them, I know that much. I know that I will continue to talk to them, out loud, though it sounds to my ears like I am talking to myself. They know.
Sharing my love,

Embracing confusion accelerates the process, for what is life but the utmost manifestation of improbability. So much just flies in the face of logic and common sense, striving to make sense of it all just deepens the inability to know, for what is there makes no sense to the human mind at all. The avatar has no tool for reconciling anything, but has every appearance of doing so, it's a trick!
I learnt the hard way that logic and common sense aren't everything.
But once that lesson was learnt I rediscovered it...
seeing those same patterns being used by a higher hand.
So I didn't throw out the baby with the bath water, at least not more than once...
It's all just too awesome.
Which is what I was saying with my comment about the happy person and the sad person: spot the difference. And then the chain of logic and thought goes through the given process, emotions and all...
Is it awesome that one is happy and one is sad? No, not at all. Is it awesome that one happy and one is sad? From the right vantage point, one might say yes, but it would be an incomplete statement, dangerously so, if expressed to one who has not traversed the given gap between the two. What exactly is that differential seen, and why is it there? What does it mean? Thus it is presented as query. Which leads to the cascade.
And you are alluding to what I wanted to say just now in that taking something like "confusion" for example - is best looked at as a dynamic. Confusion itself is just a state. They way one looks into the confusion or the interpretation of it is what is important. If one looks at it as good because of X mechanisms of action - then that was the view required. If one takes an opposite view, then that view was most required - one of these may seem more comfortable or "right" than the other to the observers and vice versa - as thus it was most valued for them to have the observation this way (All is Well!)
There is only one Song. The song of Life that is a constant - it never changes - this song is the Tonal (tone - the "Word" of God) -- the potential that exists outside the Nagual (the nameable). All is merely the different expressions and interpretations of that One Song, and there is value and experience in ALL those varieties of these expressions of Tonal regardless if some of those appear to be opposite.

Made use of my anchor several times yesterday. Clinging like nobody's business. Several bouts of heart racing, headache, tendency to bark. No brain zaps. I'm so grateful for the chain, which is heavy and stable. Awaiting the EG. Day two...,
I am happy that is working as designed.
Chose the pep rally, and had a blast. Not one iota of negativity. I asked my "friends" (those beings who have allowed me to know they are there) to put up a shield for me. I figured I had nothing to lose in asking.
Intent and faith. Powerful combination.
"I had nothing to loose"
Does this not sound like surrender - and by that, I mean the good kind.
I took the opportunity to have a chat with my friends. I don't understand how they communicate, if they do or if they are. I know "My Angel" strokes my hair and she nods, once in a while I will catch her smiling. The rest of them, though, I just don't hear or see their communications so I'm not even sure if they are...

They do know.
People forget to ask them for help, and they want to help, but they cant unless asked. Asking for help is doing them a big favor - but we often may feel its wrong to do it because we have not yet reckoned with that out of vision concept of infinity and why this means that there is, there really is, abundance whenever necessary. We are held back by our programmed in constructs of scarcity - dont take more than you fair share!!! Feel bad, feel guilty, feel shame.... one man's gain is another mans loss and on and on the guilt trip circus.
Its all bollocks. Nothing more than a control lever of the elite, and its one we all really need to smash.
KJV Matt 14:16-21
16 But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat.
17 And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.
18 He said, Bring them hither to me.
19 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.
20 And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full.
21 And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children.

Later when I moved to Costa Rica and within the first week experienced my first major earth quake...at 3:33 am...Waking me up with a bang I knew I had come down to earth at last...making it shudder with the impact of my fall.
It's been all good.
Ulli, because we share a similar number, I can't help but remark that 3+3+3=9. Three is my lucky number and so many synchronicities abound in my life surrounding it and its multiples. Just the other week while in a hotel on a work conference, I was being issued my key and room number. My cell number has 5 sixes out of a possible ten, 668 being the second series. The Concierge says your room number is 668. I laughed out loud, and pointed out the synchronicity with my phone number that they had on record, and she was quite surprised. But for me, that happens all the time. Ha!

Sounds like hubby's stress could be one of your triggers. Just say no. When he needs energy, he'll ask. Until then, let him stew.

Anchor, would it be possible for me to use my anchor for more than just the discontinuation symptoms?
I cannot answer this because I don't know what you have got in mind, but the question sets me thinking.
The thoughtform-object (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?30405-Here-and-Now...What-s-Happening&p=552729&viewfull=1#post552729) (chain connected to immovable block) as created was as an aid for stability in times when it may be felt that stability was going to be hard to achieve.
It is a subtle point, but when I was imagining it into being, I had thought it would be an aid to cope with the symptoms along the way to their ultimate reduction to zero - but not actually be the agent of their reduction - that part is down to you.
The symptoms are expected to reduce as you re-adjust your body-chemistry so that it ultimately it functions well without the pharmaceutical assistance. I had not thought that it would be a method of actually discontinuing the symptoms - please say if this is not clear, because it seems important now you mention it this way.
The mechanics around the thought-chain's creation are not fully understood by lower-me - it was a bit of a surprise when it came up to be honest and higher-me is now silent on the issue. There is probably a good reason for this, but it is beyond me as to what it is. Sorry.

I meant to answer this earlier. That numbers thing is so prevalent with me that I start worrying if there is a day when it doesn't happen.
It's a reminder that I live in a different reality now from the one I was born into.
I don't ever want to go back to that earlier consciousness where there were no numbers to give me little signals.

Today was a sad day for me. I lost one of my chickens her name was Irene. It was sudden with labored breathing last night and then she was gone this morning.
I let them free range for a couple of hours before dusk and then they all go back in the coop. The night before we had a chicken hawk come to visit. There was a ruckus out there and my son said he saw the hawk. Not what I wanted to see. So I put a baby monitor out on the back deck so I could hear what is going on. Don't really know what happen to her. I sang her the first verse of the song below. She was one of my favorites.
by Huddie Ledbetter, aka Leadbelly
first recorded in 1933
Irene good night, Irene good night,
Good night Irene, good night Irene,
I'll see you in my dreams.
Last Saturday night I got married,
Me and my wife settled down,
Now me and my wife we are parted,
I think I'll go out on the town.
Sometimes I live in the country,
Sometimes I live in town,
Sometimes I take a great notion
To jump in the river and drown.
I love Irene, God knows I do,
I'll love her 'til the seas run dry,
But if Irene should turn me down,
I'd take morphine and die.
Stop rambling, stop your gambling,
Stop staying out late at night,
Go home to your wife and your family,
Stay there by your fireside bright.

OK, ok, the chat you had with with the angels in reference to shielding you at the pep rally worked like gang busters, so why not apply the same concept to your husband? He is cranky, stressed, refusing your energy work (which is still a relatively new thing to him) so, without permission reiki doesn't work as well. But, you didn't use reiki at the pep rally, see? Call your friends in for a little chat, tell your friends to bring all *his* friends (mostly unknown to him?) and have a little sit down, heart to heart, with the whole menagerie. You can't violate anothers free will with your energy work, sure, but when your kids have serious problems with other kids at school, you don't go tracking down those other kids, do you? Heck no, you call on the other kids *parents*, the same principle applys her, make no mistake. Every person has their angelics coming along with them, and you, my friend can use this with anybody, it's not everybody who can speak and have angels listen, like they do with you. Give it a try, you will be surprised.

Would you believe it? This is exactly what I did! I think I am getting better at this! And the worry that accompanies his apparent suicidal tendencies did not effect me. It blows me away, I tell ya, that I could so easily accept that I cannot fix this for him, and that the higher good will be served.

Yes, Anchor this is exactly how I used it when I was experiencing the symptoms of lowering the dose of Effexor. I hadn't thought of using it to reduce the symptoms. What struck me though, when I was holding on to the chain, was that there are times that I'm "all over the place" and I am unsure if the cause is the same. So, what I am asking about is whether or not I can use it for all those "all over the place" times, any time I need stability. I figured that since it was a gift from you, I would ask permission to use it at other times, too :)

This could be funny, if this wasn't exactly what I'm worried about. When he makes statements like "F*** This. I can't deal with one more thing. I'm out." Or "Everybody would be better off if..." I tend to downplay the situation when it's a permanent record out in the cyberworld. But, it does cause me worry. It is a tough balance to find, between supporting him and trying to pull him out of the deep water enough that he can get a good breath of oxygen, and allowing his processes whatever they may be.

Today is going to be especially challenging for me. Little One got a fever of 103 yesterday, and can't go to school. Peanut will get fired from her (sucky) job if she misses any more time. Hubby flipped out at the thought of missing work (really, really flipped out - lord knows the building will blow up if he's not there, ugh). So, that means I will drop my girls off at school, drive the hour and a half to pick up Little One, sick, and bring him out here with me (another hour and a half). We will have about an hour before I pick M up from school, another hour before I pick Em up from school, then another hour and a half drive back to the city for the planned weekend.
That is a lot for me. A LOT.
Yippee, then we get to spend the weekend there. With Hubby. And since Little One knows we are coming for the weekend, it will be past my abilities to tell him he cannot stay with us at our house there. There are no toys, no extra beds, and this is going to send Hubby to the moon, if he weren't already there I suppose.
This is a challenge that I'm putting everything I have into. I don't need "big" help from you all, I'm trying to rely on the resources, the gift, I have been given.
Still, though, a little prayer for me would be appreciated. You know, a good thought once in a while through the day...er....weekend.

Hello 1inMany, you many find this vid on Angels helpful and uplifting. These are the phrases Kyle suggested. (I may have paraphrased some):
- Thank you, Angels, for revealing to me what I need to know.
- Thank you, Angels, for reminding me of your presences.

I can guarantee you will see miracles and get everything you want well below the price you had originally intended to pay.
Other bidders will find themselves mysteriously distracted and forget to bid.

There are no "what iffs"...at least not yet.
She is the only enlightened one there.
There!
Unless those other enlightened beings realize that she is the only one amongst them in the process of stocking a brand-new shop,
so she needs all the help she can get.
In which case they'll all hold back, out of kindness.

Number 3
“Numerology and the Divine Triangle,” by: Faith Javane and Dusty Bunker
3 AS A SOUL NUMBER - page 24 (in part)
You are very conscientious in regard to duty. You are well aware of the law of the Trinity, and know that inspiration and imagination will bring the best results with used to help others. The could easily become your philosophy of life. Follow your urge to create and expand the activities that interest you.
3 AS THE PATH OF DESTINY NUMBER - page 33 (in part)
If you wish to be a success, use your time wisely. Do not scatter your energies in too many directions at once and thus postpose the accomplishment of a worthwhile destiny. Promote friendship among your peers by being a friend when a friend is needed. You spread joy and sunshine through your ability for self-expression. Keep optimism as your trademark.
3 AS A PERSONAL NUMBER VIBRATION - page 129 (in part)
3 is the number of the performing arts, and you are a performer. You love life, the joy of social contacts, entertainment and new experiences. Your bright active nature radiates like the Sun to warm the lives of others, and your ease with people draws them to you like a magnet. You will always have many admirers.
TAROT SYMBOLISM: Key 3 The Empress - page 131 (in part)
The Empress is also an aspect of the subconscious mind. While the HIgh Priestess, number 2, is memory, in number 3 we find the subconscious response to that memory which produces growth through the imagination.
In contrast to the virginal High Priestess, the Empress appears pregnant, as does the landscape around her. The Empress produces. She is the great mother surrounded by love, beauty and growth. The conscious mind, key 1, cannot produce; the subconscious mind, key 2 cannot reason; it takes a combination of 1 and 2 to produce manifestation, or key 3.
ASTROLOGICAL CORRESPONDENCE: Jupiter (and Venus). pages 131-2
From the foregoing delineations of number 3 (Jupiter) and key 3 (the Empress, Venus), you can see how the attributes of Venue and Jupiter work in conjunction to bring about productivity. Venue seeks to bring harmony and beauty into whatever environment she appears. Her keen sense of justice manifests through a fine symmetry, and her loving nature seeks to make others as well as herself comfortable.
When Venus unites with Jupiter, who desires to expand serves for humanity through orderly growth, an extremely productive and fertile situation results. This productivity is distinctly recognizable in number 3 individuals. They are extremely sociable and indulge not only themselves but also their family and friends. They work to bring about social harmony by using heir very expressive and creative talents in such fields as acting, social work, counseling and the law. Their honesty, generosity and affability make them extremely popular with almost everyone.
Later when I moved to Costa Rica and within the first week experienced my first major earth quake...at 3:33 am...Waking me up with a bang I knew I had come down to earth at last...making it shudder with the impact of my fall.
It's been all good.
Ulli, because we share a similar number, I can't help but remark that 3+3+3=9. Three is my lucky number and so many synchronicities abound in my life surrounding it and its multiples. Just the other week while in a hotel on a work conference, I was being issued my key and room number. My cell number has 5 sixes out of a possible ten, 668 being the second series. The Concierge says your room number is 668. I laughed out loud, and pointed out the synchronicity with my phone number that they had on record, and she was quite surprised. But for me, that happens all the time. Ha!
The above is a quote, more or less, from the closing words of Joseph P. Farrell's Babylon's Banksters: The Alchemy of Deep Physics,High Finance and Ancient Religion (http://amzn.com/1932595791).
I've been following Joseph P. Farrell's vids for a couple of years now and find him to be the best of all the researchers.
What a guy. (I messed up the quotation here, but I am too lazy to go back and fix it. Do forgive my indolence.)
I mirror your sentiment exactly. I have been listening diligently to all the Farrell interviews on The Byte Show with George Ann Hughes. I've posted it before, but I recommend all to go and listen, and if possible donate.
http://www.thebyteshow.com/JosephPFarrell.html
I've been saving up to buy his entire repertoire. I'll get their eventually. Ulli, d'ya mind if I slip into the Village bank and partake in the abundance for the sake of my intellectual enrichment? ;)
But again, I really resonate not only with Farrell's research, but his speculation as well.
The Village bank is there for all. No need to ask.
Just keep it tidy in there...those neat stacks make counting easier.
I just got news that the barn will be enlarged soon, so that there will always be enough for all.

Oh, that one's easy. If enlightened, then they'd know to step aside so Benevolent Crow keeps to her budget. Because part of her life's mission is to bring smiles and light and healing to all those who are drawn into "Revel & Fancy" to purchase her and the daughters' wares. (It's a nice balancing exchange, and it happens without the "doing".)
Peace,

Just came back from a major supermarket. I went there to get a specific bag of chips.
while there, I went to the breads and pastries section.
while looking at the -50% priced yummies (pastries cakes, pies, etc)...I found an entire roll of their custom 50% off price stickers. About 500 stickers. Ouch! so I found the guy who lost it (who was still marking stuff down), and gave it back to him. I told him that I was tempted. For a whole 2 seconds. Damn. I always imagined what it would be like to find that roll of stickers...and I give it back. Shoulda known. And I did know that I would have given it back. Can't even dream about that one anymore.
This particular supermarket chain does about $40B a year in sales, and never would have missed it. However, it's the principle of the thing.
