    Thanks, Ulli, and somewhat complementing this blog but in a different way -
    (Excuse the language, mind the message)

    The dimensional veil of separtion - Sethikus Boza

    once we know what the **** were actually dealing with here the better off were going to be.., I can't even get into the real solution because most are not willing to see reality as it is still.., I wish it wasn't real and wish that I didn't have to face the horrors that I have on this path.., but you can't make this **** up.., and were dealing with much more than all the Hegelian Dialectic Horse **** that keeps perpetuating it'self in thrall to the Ouroboros in systems of manipulation that reach far beyond any mind controlled slavery here in 3D.

    This is Shaman ****.., and is what is missing from culture.., Earth is the ****ing Alamo you guys.., and we have to ****ing TAKE IT back from those that think they own us and use us to feed into their systems.., and when I say that I mean YOUUUUU!!! You need to take YOU back.., all of you.., this also is where those that are ready to graduate come into this.., and you would not be here or have read this post if you weren't.., this Life is the Test.., all of it.., and I didn't come back to this **** hole to watch any of you fail.., and though there be much beauty in Nature.., I'm here for the ones that really.., and I mean reeeeally give a **** and here to assist in that and getting myself and those into the place of being ready for the solution.., it's a matter of choice.., despite the pain and trial it takes to get there.., we decide what we want.., and there are different levels of knowing when it comes to things.., if you have not come into the concept of the 9 veils yet it may be difficult understand what I'm getting geared up to bring forth on my Youtube channel: Black Earth Productions.., but this is not for everyone.., and it comes to those to whom it chooses and is meant to.., and is protected.., we don't cast pearls before swine.., and me and my beloved are resting on what seems to be at least 10 years worth of output that was downloaded to us when it comes to what is really going on.., what is meant to happen.., and what to really do about it.., certain things have worked and still work up to the point that we have come to but we need to keep taking the stair case.., those that are slave in common culture don't know who their masters are or know that they are slaves.., and in the worst cases they love it knowing the difference.., but more has to be unveiled.., this is what the Apocalypse ****ing is.., the unveiling.., and ya it's all ****ed you guys.., even with the other beings in the parallel earth timeline and universe we are in that is literally using humans to harvest their soul genetics.., why.., because they are disconnected from Source.., and they can never re-connect to it.., they are in decay.., and want our soul spark which is is why we need come within the vortex of connection and route these ****ers out.., frankly.., if it were up to me I would just download the **** out of everyone in an instant., but I can't do that.., I don't get to decide self actualized initiation for anyone..

    most turn back because they are not ready to deal with reality as it truly is and surrender to Higher Self.., thing is though that Higher Self dose not care about our circumstances.., in fact.., it expects us to overcome that ****.., it did not give us this power of knowing for nothing.., ya see the difference here.., cause I deal with it just as much as anyone else.., the denial.., yet I still remain at the helm of it all as much as I can as long as it depends on me and for those that all of this means something to.., alone at times this feels., but I'm not.., and we'll keep sounding the ****ing horns for this generation and the next generation and show them how to light the torch and flame within them., so for me to go on and on about things without it having the effect that it needs to is nothing that dose not come with consequence to this.., there is no hiding from it and pretending like it's not what the **** is really going on.., and I'm not going to let up on it because nothing has changed yet in the way that it needs to.., look at all the **** that is STILL going on you guys.., it's not going to ****ing stop.., ever.., not until we come into the place of knowing how the **** this game really works and you know who you really are via gnosis.., and knowing how your energy systems and multi-dimensional bodies and mechanics and the heart and mind actually work.., you must know where your true power comes from and how it's been manipulated.., and taking it the **** back and making this playing field even.., then to crush this ****............................., I stand at the gate.., as I am.

    our inner teacher appears when our inner student is ready.., there is no avoiding this war... it can only be postponed to the advantage of the enemy.

    Thanks for sharing, Limor. And there is this enormous difference, between those who have lived and experienced horrors in this life, and those who are only horrified because we heard about it second hand. And then there are those whose memories take them back several lifetimes and whatever torturous experiences where handed to them there.

    Yet, the world is what we make it...and this was the biggest surprise and discovery for me, and is also what has been hidden from us, during our indoctrination phases.

    So it is either us, (who tread gently and wish no harm), or them, (who feel entitled to invade even the most precious aspects of the universe, small, innocent children).
    Who will take the creative ball and run with it?

    The here and now is a blissful place, as it means we can be sitting peacefully with our computers and share with others whatever comes to mind. This to me is freedom. We just have to know how to write down the thoughts we wish to share.
    And there is something to be said for attempting to give others hope.


    There is no such thing as false hope, unless one sets up a trap.
    Real hope is the vision of one 's being able to _DO_ something- to better the human condition, and to help the virtuous to become even more virtuous.
    And this does something to our DNA, and a person lights up like a Christmas tree, and shines.

    And that then can provide them with protection, far more than living in blissful ignorance ever can.
    Blessings to you.

    Great blog:
    http://www.visibleorigami.com/2016/0...abet-soup.html

    Snippet:
    "The world I see is a madhouse. Does that mean I am mad because it is what I see? I could see it many ways. It could look sane to me. Would that mean I was sane but... if the world really is a madhouse I would prefer not to be one of the inmates. This is one of the core things I have to think about. Agendas are lumbering on a rampage like drunken elephants through a shopping mall. Some of them are dressed up like those painted boys who were kept in the mansions of some dissolute marquis or manufactured royalty in pre-revolutionary France. Some of them had them in dozens. Today they got them in the hundreds and thousands in Hollywood. Would that be pre-revolutionary Hollywood? Another lumbering elephant is the race wars and then there are the culture wars, the language wars, the immigrant wars, the economic wars. The worst of the wars is the war of lies against the truth and worse than that is the size of the army that serves the military industrial complex of lies. Maybe it isn't such a big deal if you are part of it and it seems real to you but it doesn't seem real to me and therein is the conundrum. It's okay, I guess, if you are skating on non existent ice, as long as you believe the ice is there. If you know there is no ice, then putting on a pair of skates seems ridiculous but... not to the people who believe the ice is there. Do I submit to the general fantasy and agree that there is ice, even when I know that there is not? Do I buy into global warming when it seems to be getting colder? I'm not a scientist in the first place. I am a scientist actually but not that kind of scientist."
    There it is.. yet no-one looks.....

    The erasure of the illusion of the ice, it's reality and non reality, in one fell swoop.

    Very interesting, the world is quantum, the ice is quantum, and we are quantum. It means that we can move in many more directions than we think, getting many more options and having many more results than we are meant to believe - should we put our quntum mind on the quntum side of things with our expended quntum understanding together.

    Such a carlinesque way to live. The mind in full wander mode. test fitting everything into everything.

    Outside working on cleaning up some found recycle bins.

    Washing the ugly goop from them ....and me brain says, out of the blue.... "Banana Dostoyevsky"

    The internal dialogue stops for a second, and continues..."It's the obvious thing, when out of Rum and Triple Sec for making Banana Daiquiris. Just sub in some complimentary reflective socialist vodka, and use Napoleon brandy..and there it is....one Banana Dostoyevsky."

    Interesting what our mind construct programming comes up with. Is quantum only the mind, or is it that conciousness/awareness is playing a trivial part in it. And why are we (humans) are being used for our quantum qualities for others manifestation's use.. and why is it that we were never sufficiently been educated about it.

    And what role does our heart play..

    Thank you, Ulli, I find this to be a very apt post. I think this is perheps what caused the Avalon server to be down : )

    The tortoures experiences of the past loop themselves and we continue to reconstruct it and live it again and again (talk about quantum!). The thousands of years perpetrators knows it very well (trusting our ignorance in the laws of the universe, physical or otherwise) and use it to their benefit, and so we find ourselves both personally and collectively playing the same roles, only in a more modernised version each time UNTIL we acknowledge, and release the 'story'. Easier said than done, but certainly posssible. And as they say, there is no time like the present.

    I feel affinity with your words above, as if they were meant to me. Some relevancy that I needed to hear. Sometimes we vocal words that come from somewhere that are meant to disrupt, sometimes words that are meant to assist. And sometimes there are blockages deliberately put to not be able to say anything at all, especially if there are some interesting conclusions from certain experiences of the horrors of this life. And sometimes it's truly us : ), How versatile our world is. So much more to learn.

    All the good things to you, Ulli ~

    The puns never end, it seems. I have the windows open the sun is shining and the wind blows through the house.

    I load the front loading washing machine and put a scoop of detergent in, and in the back of my mind, the song starts up....Roger waters. I start the laundry machine and it begins turning. the song begins.

    Oh..oh ..oh..the tide is turning.

    Detergent foam clears the stains and helps to move through the tide, when the heart participates in the service and where there are no fake guides

    We better be clear (and cleaned : ) about that

    When I watched this movie in the early nineties I got an Aha! that lifted me out of my seat.
    Mainly how to access my subconscious more frequently, and deliberately.
    Too slow for anyone who is not on such a path.
    I think I will watch it again now, on this lazy Sunday afternoon.

    Less than a half hour ago, I finished “Childhood’s End”, by: Arthur C. Clarke. Currently processing. It’s timely that you posted “Mindwalk". I'm downloading it now.

    Mindwalk - Trailer
    A US politician visits his poet friend in Mont. St. Michael, France. While walking through the medieval island discussing their philosophies of life they happen upon Sonja, a scientist in recluse, who joins in their conversation. The two men listen to the ideas of this brilliant woman and discuss how her ideas can work in their own politician and poet lives.

    In the Mindwalk movie they talk about the turning tide at 1:35:00.

    I didnt remember that part.

    The other thing...my husband walks into the room I'm watching this movie on my ipad, sees the image of Mount Saint Michel, and says he just left the room where he had been watching TV with that same image, as the Tour de France bicycle race began there at that moment.

    Lazing in Epsom salt, reading the Village.

    We came out of retroactive Mars in Scorpio (Mars in Scorpio in birth chart), July 1st and not a moment too soon. The big aha in the snarling dog eat dog, mental, months long donnybrook was, I've been blaming my husband who is not to blame. Very difficult to think with Mars dragging up the kitchen sink, so I was so grateful to latch on to this particular game changer.

    It's the battles about emotional housecleaning that exhaust me, while I am trying to find my way in the deafening ego din, does this or that constitute a responsibility or old baggage? And meanwhile the retro Mars grumpiness must be controlled (no point whatsoever triggering PTSD in my husband), another strain on my system.

    Without a word said, so yes, that swirly stuff around you *does* permit communication, my husband clearly feels freedom and relief from my previous habitual, automated, judgement. So do I.



    Retroactive Mars in Scorpio is very good for life review exercises, lol.

    Pauler, singing with the wind in your space, so clear, so much room. I too, think of the Villagers all the time.

    Nora, I've been thinking about you, well, I almost feel as if I am sitting with you, and a moment here, a moment there, a continuous being that breaks into my awareness every so often as a thought of Nora, which its not, just love and care.

    Marianne, happy belated birthday dear heart, and thank you SO much for the reminder to use the mat! I space out when my body can't move, hard to remember to take care of myself. I've walked around the block these last two days, woohoo. Come home safe.

    Mike, love you, you big European mutt. It is so cool you and your dad are having a blast golfing.

    Lolly, I am glad you are here, enjoy getting to know you, and I enjoy your joy.

    Violet, ick on chaos, do what you gotta do. My sister had to lock the refrigerator and cupboards, and put up a steel door to the bedroom when puberty, and serious anger outbursts ensued, testosterone is no joke.

    Woofs to PL, Playdo, Araucaria, EagleSpirit, Carmody, and Meeradas, keen seers all.

    Blessings to Flash, and this is what I said to the mod team after reading her email to be posted to the SP thread:
    Quote Wow. Impressive. Way to go. Extract the benefit, ignore the dross, align to good, and hold to love.



    In terms of life path, life task, Flash is a raving success.
    Lol, Onawah, that's our job, to be driven nuts.

    Blessings to all shamans, to all little autistics and their families, to all Villages of love and friendship.

    Love, Sierra a nutcase as usual, rooting through Ulli's lovely store, and stopping to hug her every five minutes just because I can... (Go quantum!)

    And while listening I'm reminded of a conversation I had with Ferry (yes, I had many chats with him, as well as Eno and Phil Manzanera, who had never met any girl before who knew what a syncopation was. I miss those days with these geniuses)
    Anyway, I am reminded of how transparent Ferry was about his inner life. He told me in 1988 that listening to the old Roxy Music songs made him cringe with embarrassment.
    And here I am, blown away again by how good he was.
    Geez....


    Wondering what we would have been served had he and Brian Eno never split up.

    Less than a half hour ago, I finished “Childhood’s End”, by: Arthur C. Clarke. Currently processing. It’s timely that you posted “Mindwalk". I'm downloading it now.
    Paula, I still have a tattered version of the book. Brilliant book. I quoted from it before, I believe.
    This is the cover, which was copied by the producers of Independence Day.
    (Hey, isn't that supposed to be tomorrow?)

    A guy hikes from Mexico to Canada on trails and films one second each day.
    For nature lovers.
    That made me homesick for the high Sierras.

    Here is another one, one second per mile on the John Muir Trail:

    I got homesick watching that one too, and started researching horse packing, and hiking, where you can be old and arthritic, not carry anything, get fed and put to bed, lol:

    Yes, the 4th of July is officially tomorrow. As I write this, there are fireworks going off in several places. Last evening too.

    Childhood’s End was good. I did a speed read with the last two chapters so I wouldn't scoot ahead to the ending. The more Sci Fi and ET books and movies I get caught up on that others reference, I better understand people's posts/POV. Between no TV or music in the home growing up and then off in the world as a youngin', I've got big gaps.

    From an interview given by Zora Burdan, rock journalist, artist, and wife if Doors singer Jim Morrison, on having "the gift"

    "PKM: They weren’t encouraged at all! My family was very strict Irish Roman Catholic, though the little gifts like Sight did sneak through, from both sides of the family tree. But we never discussed it. One gift I could do without: precognition of deaths. I had a vision of Jim the night before he died: he was standing by my bed, so real that I could smell his indefinable scent; he bent over to kiss me and was gone. A few years later, I woke up screaming from a nightmare of my sister being killed in a car crash; the next day, my mom called to tell me that my sister’s fiancé had been killed in a car crash. I had a vision of my beautiful Irish wolfhound jumping on the bed as she used to do, again so real the bed sagged under her; the friends who had her called the next day to tell me she’d peacefully died. And of course there’s the earthquake precog … It never tells me anything nice, like winning lottery numbers, and I kind of wish it would stop. Being warned isn’t much fun."

    Being warned isn't much fun...so true.
    Nor is there any fun in being the warner, a role one can easily identify with if one has astrological knowledge.
    It is a real dilemma.
