Here and Now...What's Happening?

What I envision is that this other place is room to give space so our lively spirits can grow, where eveyone is welcome and no one is compelled by anything but the forum guidelines, although we crazy villagers have been known to stretch them hopefully not too far.

We mods are still discussing this ... but at first blush, this feels to me like an attempted end run around our request to tony not to participate in this thread after he returns.

sure , no problems,

But things are getting really, really freaky
around here.

Well everywhere actually,
time is folding inwards too.

And that is how the synchronicity starts, how it really picks up speed... You begin to turn the timeline sideways (from seeing just a bit of it head on-it 'flowing by') and then the whole scope of it is laid out to the breadth and width of your visage. One begins to be able to see things like timelines, without being able to form the words to describe it. For there is no descriptor for it in human language. We can only wax poetic on that one.

And if one continues in that direction, one may end up being able to finish people's sentences, before they even arrive to have the conversation.

The complexity comes when you try to relate that to others, for they have not the position nor the reality nor the language to understand it. This is the use of both hemispheres of the mind, in a balanced way. You may begin to feel the energies moving through your cranium, like a heat, pulsing both hemispheres in sync.

How about kundalini? I've got lots in my chart, energy wise, so It's like my stater engine and the force of the drive, as well. i find that getting the kundalini to go from the base through to the crown, in a controlled stable manner is a good exercise, regarding finding balance in this sort of 'headspace'.

Thanks for that explains it much better than i could have.
Right now and for some time I'm getting answers to things
before i have the question or problem to solve.

Some random thing pops into my head or crossed my path
And later that day of the following days I have an
issue arise that requires that EXACT thing .
Often its a solution to a problem that someone close
to me has . Even more freaky is when I have one person
in one chat window struggling with an issue and someone
in another window just so happens to have the perfect
solution through a random link idea or experience .
Note that those two people do not converse or
know of any of each others
issues through reasons of confidence .

Kundalini yes.
Always had too much of it to be honest
But I think now I'm more wiser I can start to
really work with it in a more controlled way .
I'm getting constant rushes up my spine and up
and down my body . I usually have this but fasting
is for sure highlighting it. Spending lots of time in
the garden or having frequent showers or baths a big
help to ground things .

Today with dad may be rougher than it I hoped
as I hardly slept at all last night . And I'm a person
that really needs their sleep .
So will be calling extra help in to get me through
from all levels .'

You have my support, but you already know that.
Nugget.

The Here and Now is my favourite thread too. Banter can get out of hand in any thread, Ive seen it happen so many times and nearly always around the full and new moons!!! Disagreements are a part of life and good for growth. Im not sure altho it is a good idea. Need to think.

PL Ive got cancer rising too!

The nice thing about the thread is the ability to pop in and out of it like the alternate reality it is. There are times I have come here with little to say and feces are being flung around and I just quietly leave. Othertimes I come into the same situation with something to say and say it. You know, like what I am doing here and now.
There are times that may be a non sequiter to the moment but still germane to the thread theme.

The ability to come and go in peace and accept the moment will let us know how well we are doing with our core Self. I actually like keeping it all in this thread, agreeing with Ulli.. I understand PL's concept and honor him for putting it out there as a way to keep the peace and welcome more aboard. I welcome all, but you have to be able to resonate with the thread. When attempts are made to make things more 'user friendly' it sometimes results in dilution of the original sauce.

Not everybody like Jack Daniels or Scotch, but messing with the taste?

Well since Mercury is slowing down soon going retrograde i envision some communicationproblems if we make this split, but of course we've got the free will to do it. Maybe we should make a "poll" and vote??? Or is it possible to reach consensus.....

One can always vote with their 'feet'.

[markoid]

I personally am for keeping things all in one thread. The varying content or 'flavours' if you will are still about the here and now, surely. For instance I did not get involved in the gender banter simply 'cos that ain't my thang, but I still read them and sometimes got a laugh and enjoyed the perkiness. Some times I noticed the bits that made me feel 'ooh, that was a bit too far' and had to look at what gave me that feeling... a lesson in itself. The situation with Ulli and Tony was a huge contrast to what had gone on previously in the village and for sure left both with some serious bruises, but surely that is the stuff of life.. no? Ulli appears to have come back shining brightly (and hopefully Tony will too). The village has bunch of new people interacting and has a yet another rich and vibrant flavour. Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that the village thread is a 'slice of life', organic and mutifarious (sp) and should be all in one place, not compartmentalized ... my 2c
I always feel like a noob at Avalon and no less so here in the village and I thank you remarkable wizards and wise women for the sustenance..... you feed my soul.

Well thunder24 that was a description of my life at the moment, and exactly the thoughts i had today while meditating by the sea with 2 friends at 11:11. I had brought pictures of my beloved dog Pajazzo that i had to put to rest in august and one was the shadow of me and my dog.

I post in the "What did you do with your 11.11.11 thread" and there's this still video with STATIC playing with his dog on the beach after meditating and this pic of the shadow of him and his dog!!!

Also happened to post at 00.11

You ain't seen nothing yet...this village is a tourist attraction...minus the tourist traps.

So it can only get bigger and better. No realtors, but homes can be found via a small notice board.
There will be B&Bs and guest houses.

Everyone here offers hospitality to the weary travelers.
There are no wolves in sheep's clothing.
Even if there are still some wolves, that's ok.
We will know them for what they are and they can have their space.
We will enjoy them when they howl at the full moon at nights.

The lions are sleeping with the lambs. The swords have been made into plough shares.
There is fun and games, without heavy competition. Outdoor picnic lunches, by the village lake.
The kids will have a ball here. And not to forget, the laundry room is a Margarita lounge.

Even though you will live a long life, by the time you are reunited with your beloved Pajazzo you will feel like you were never apart.
I have a list of questions lined up for the kitties I have lost, and I know one day the answers will be provided.

Ulli made a place that I can kick off my shoes, and throw my hat on her coat stand (I always miss) - that's more than unique, it's special.

This place has been one of tranquility for those of that fit anywhere on the spiritual/human spectrum, without judgement (ok, there's always the odd hiccup). The ebb and flow of how deep and shallow it has been is a real pleasure, a simple pleasure, so I'd vote to keep it as it is. The content that is real and from our imaginations has made it so special.


Peace,

John

Peace, Thunder and I am glad you are pulling out of it. Take a load off.

Just had some food I've been craving but have avoided for the past decade, due to how things are now 'done'.

and that was some Leinsamenbrot with a heap of coarse liverwurst.... and a bit of mustard on top.. Maybe some German salami on the Leinsamenbrot next time....topped with Havarti or Swiss..or Gouda...

I could eat that stuff all day.

Which is entirely the problem.

Astrid, the fasting takes the vibrations that are NOT yours out of the body. Like taking that last pebble out of your pocket....that gets you to finally have *just enough* buoyancy to breach the surface of the water.....you are given the opportunity to look around.

And that is what I mean, that if one wants to actually breach the surface of the illusion, then... they must go ----all the way. No short cut or falsification will deliver.

Ulli said: And grace leads to a permanent state of gratitude. Thank you.

Here an now, as a visitor to this little village it is so wonderful to be able to type a few words towards the end of my day. I am so grateful to be a part of this dream in this moment.

Now it is dark and very cold outside in my rainy little beach town. The cars outside on the highway are noisier than usual as their tires throw up the water on the pavement. Next to me Volker makes soft buzzing sounds, with his little Dremel grinding wheel, as he prepares the electronic boards I am to stuff in a moment. In the background the soft sounds of music and bird calls on the computer speaker remind me of spring days and green sunlit meadows, so that my mind throws up pictures of days it remembers in the mountains from the past.

The warm stone is still there for my feet. My body enjoys alternately warming its feet, then putting them on the cold floor for contrast until they ask to be warmed again.

Tonight I have dressed my body in a moss colored shirt and the fabric feels soft as it cuddles me. My tummy is full of warm soup, I am safe, I am grateful.

Goodnight little village. Next I am going to spend a few hours building widgets while I listen to a movie before going to bed. So grateful to have a little home business that is peaceful and allows me to sit in quiet meditation while my fingers fly.

Here and now... its 04h49.

Age or frequencies....

I love how this village has evolved.

I add my 2 Zimbabwean cents in requesting that we keep one thread.

Carmody, you can thank Ulli for her subliminal beef jerky...

Stop talking about food !! Lol
What you mentioned also a big fav of mine .
I'm going to attempt to switch
over to 80%raw 20% cooked
after fasting to continue the good
work .

I'm happy to go all the way have the time and "space"
to do it now I have another session coming up this week
With a second shamanic practitioner this time
it's for me only .
It's all spirit driven her name was
mentioned by the person I worked with last week
and I googled it a couldn't find her.
But I'm reading a core teaching book
right now from another of my favorites in
this area and I was checking out his site.
On his links page there she was.
So that was enough of a sign for me
to check her out .
So next tues we clean up some
more stuff .

The dad thing is over with .
He was ok, majorly stressful on no
sleep though . My energy is all over the place,
Im very hyper.
I gave him loads of food seedlings enough
for 3 months at least .
One of the projects I have going,
getting people back into food gardening
again . Dad was always a big gardener
but with mum being so ill he's not been
doing much.

The sleepless state doesnt sound like
It would work too well for me.
I have always really needed my
sleep any small changes and I'm
wrecked.,
Speaking of which I'm totally exhusted
hopefully enough to crash out .
Hopefully I sleep I'm feeling pretty
Ragged . Still on fast though
Day 8 and back onto just water

Synchronous that I am posting right below Astrid

I am sitting here typing through tearfilled eyes at what just happened. I have always been very alienated from my family and have been doing regular internal forgiveness work around the issue with my mum and dad, both passed and my brother. I see my brother and sister about once a year and talk to them by phone maybe 4 times a year, my sister 'gets' me but my bro thinks I am pretty much of a loser, we don't dislike each other but live 'on different planets'. I respect him but there is no brotherly 'connection' between us. The last time I saw him, as we parted and had a hug, 'love ya' just came out of my mouth quite spontaneously and he had a sort of stunned mullet look on his face . As some of you know I have some surgery coming up that is going to cost several thousand dollars, which I can afford but would use a good chunk of what little money I have. Just now he called me and said very genuinely that he would REALLY LIKE it if I would let him pay for my surgery. He is very well off and like many who are he hangs on to his money very tightly..... I AM BLOWN AWAY!!!
