    Hey Ulli,

    Quote Here in Barbados they sell elderberry cordial in the supermarket, and I have been adding just a little to my drinking water.
    I've never made elderberry wine, but it's supposed to be very good. My father in law Maurice gave me his five-gallon carboy several years ago, and I've intended to make elderberry wine and also dandelion wine (made with the yellow flowers).

    My dad made wines about twenty years ago, and they were absolutely wonderful. Very dry and flavorful. I remember walking with him, just the two of us, and talking about his skill at it. He had stopped making wine and I asked him why.

    He had two reasons. One was that he enjoyed learning about something and totally immersing himself in it, following it for awhile, and then found his interest waning once he'd learned what he wanted to and had enough of the experience. At that moment, I realized how much I'm like him. I've done the same all my life, collecting skills like charms on a bracelet, then tucking them away. It pleased me to be like him; my relationship with my mom wasn't especially good until years later.

    The other reason he gave for stopping was that my mom thought it was a sinful thing to do, that there's no good in alcohol, even recreational drinking. She was raised a southern baptist with a strict way of living life. He was resigned to it, as he is to many things.

    I can see her point, alcohol when abused makes for misery; the moderation needed isn't possible for some people. But it seems to me her insistence on no alcohol whatsoever was the other side of the coin of too much.

    So here's to a little elderberry cordial in your drinking water.

    JB

    Psychological effects of CMEs (coronal mass ejections) are typically short lived and include headache, palpitations, mood swings, and feeling generally unwell. Chaotic or confused thinking, and erratic behaviors also increase. Solar storms can drive our emotions and maximize it to both good and bad side – the point here is to be aware of it.
    Little Lambie's overdosed on CMEs. He's in agreement with the effects.

    Good Morning, Village

    Off to the city today. Wondering what things will occur to me on the drive, lol. Here's what is in my mind and heart this morning....



    Much Love,
    One, this is my sister's favorite song. I think your and her idea that there are angels among us is probably true. For her, maybe that's why she's still with us after many years of living with a condition that could've taken her long ago. Through fatigue and pain, she continues to live a life filled with love and beauty.

    Thanks for reminding me of her today.

    I hope you had a good trip to the city and find all you need.

    Love,
    JB

    Have an update on Candace.

    She is feeling and doing much better and says thank you to everyone and for the letter from Flash's daughter means a lot and thank you for caring. Right now she is making healthier decisions/choices and moving from where she is living now. Your prayers and the letter really made a difference.

    Happy to be back in the forest and in the mountain air.
    The solar flares have affected me too. There were days that I had a lot of
    energy and others, felt like I could fall asleep where I was standing.
    I have been sleeping more deeply and soundly too.
    I have 3 planets in Leo. Sun, ascendent and Venus.

    Love

    Nora

    I should be sleeping, really. Been up since two am.
    Bright Garlic's thread reminded me of Baha'u'llah's prophecies.
    The Bahai teachings affirm ETs and that's one of the reason's I became a Bahai, plus endless Major
    Synchronicities.
    Here is a Wikipedia page about Bahai prophecies:

    UK receives first F-35 stealth fighter jet from US

    Quote It has been a long and expensive wait, but Britain has now been handed its first Joint Strike Fighter jet, also known as the F-35.

    Defence Secretary Phillip Hammond flew out in person to the searing heat of Fort Worth, Texas, for the official handover ceremony from its US manufacturer Lockheed Martin.

    He says it is "the best warplane money can buy". But it is an eye-watering sum - the current cost of each jet is more than £100m.

    After watching Britain's first F-35 take to the skies, Mr Hammond said "this is money well spent".
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-18919388

    Meanwhile Public Toilets continue to be closed at an alarming rate. Now that's eye-watering !

    Thanks , ulli, that thread has been a little while in the making,
    i have been chatting to BG for a while back channel and he was torn
    whether to post or not what he has known about for some time now.
    But in the end he agreed that it was better " off his chest" and ppl can
    take it or leave it.

    As for me, I have been watching the " signs" for a while now, and they
    seem to be stacking up in one direction. And while it can be overwhelming to
    start thinking of all the possible survival options to go into, i personally think this
    is what we are here for, and it's an amazing time to be alive. This "waiting around "
    feeling is coming to an end, and soon...

    I for one will not be "heading to the hills", but staying put to see if there are things
    that i can assist with. No accidents that all i really want to do right now is plant more and more
    food, and get more chickens. As for the potential loss of power grid preparations... i have a fair way to go.
    So i will be looking for tips and help there, but that said, I'm sure as i can be.. that we will see loads more
    clever and simple gadgets that will just happen to appear right at the exact moment they are needed..

    SHTF in my workaday world, but last nights dreams were the Mornings reminders, and I pulled out the High John oil I've been making since Winter time. Burned a little, with a little ol' spell, and I feel much better now. The owner of the business I work for seems rather comical when viewed through the goggles of ol' Jean de Conker, I must say.

    Well the Mars- Uranus- Pluto T-square hit right on time...
    somewhere something had to give.
    The Denver shooting today was the valve...
    Sorry for those who were directly involved.

    I just hope that there will be no further incidents.

    I wish for all Villagers to band together in a united healing excercise for Bright Garlic.
    We all know we have it in us, so let's do it.
    Since Bright Garlic himself has indicated that he wants to be healed I see no obstacles.
    Today this Village will send a powerful CME his way,
    so that very soon he can enjoy blooming health once again.

    Fasten your seat belt, BG.

    Hi Astrid,
    I agree, my plan it to say right where I am. Below are some items that can be used at home or from a car. One possible suggestion to begin research for price comparison and models.

    Water Bottle

    Berkey portable water filters are easy to use and very effective. Berkey portable water filters remove virtually all contaminants and bad flavors from water. Even pond water can be made drinkable with Berkey portable water filters.

    Refill Capacity:
    Water from any source -160
    Municipal Water - 640

    At 22 ounces and weighing less than 1 pound, the sport Berkey bottle is lightweight and easy to use. No pumps, or breakdowns to worry about either.  When encountering a lake, pond, or stream, just fill up and start drinking.”
    "The exclusive filter also incorporates proprietary absorbing media that are impregnated into the micro-porous filter for the IONIC absorption of pollutants into the filter such as aluminum, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, mercury, and other dangerous heavy metals.
    "

    Eliminator - 1500 watts

    What I liked about this is portability and you can plug it into your car. The downside like all back up equipment, you can’t expect to run a lot of things for long periods of time without recharging. You have to factor in the recharge time. There’s a vid demo at the link above.

    The Eliminator is a backup power system that can supply up to 1500 W of household electricity and is an excellent alternative to a generator. It’s quiet and has no fumes, fuel or moving parts, making it safe for indoor use. This mobile workhorse can also be used outdoors, and operates a wide variety of electronics including communication devices, power tools, full-size appliances and more.

    I had an interesting experience last night. Around 23:30 I went outside to my little garden to do my thing. As I looked up at the stars, I suddenly had the urge to ask for a sign from my star family. I had never seen a UFO, but some people very close to me were followed on the highway by one back in the late 70's, so I believe. I remember asking to be spared such an experience as I did not want to get scared. My request was granted. So, last night, I asked for a sign, to see one. I looked up at the sky for a couple of minutes and then headed to the door. As I walked up the stairs, I heard "look up to the East", so I did. There was nothing there, and suddenly a big white orb flashed me, and then nothing again. I was estatic ! Thanking them for this sign, swirling around in my yard. It made me so happy, and still does.

    I read Bright Garlikc's post this morning, because some people I trust pointed it out. I'm ok with that as I know of these times. Whatever will be, will be. I have made some preparations for me and my family, and will not go crazy on it. When the time comes, I will help anyone that needs me. Whenever I can, I tell people of these times, so that they are not taken by surprise when it happens. At least, they will have heard of it before.

    What comes to mind always, as I live North is my friends Jesus' words : Pray that these things to not come in winter. So I do.

    Living in fear hinders my Peace. I get off-centered and this is not good as I have as much dark in me as I have light. I choose Love over fear. Life is good and I intend to live every moment as if it were my last, because it could be.

    I KNOW that when we are done with these coming days, our experience here on Earth will be very close to Heaven !

    Sending much Love to BG.

    Thanks WCBD.
    I have just had a glorious day in my garden, planting and planning my spring crops.

    Considering that i have been "involved" in that thread, I'm feeling pretty dam good,
    the more i process this information,- which is hardly news to most of us, the better i feel.
    Today my whole being was vibrating at a whole new level, kind of like a switch was flicked.
    Feeling it mostly in my crown and my heart chakras, but pretty much all over.

    Bring it on i say.

    If I were to know everything that goes on just in the street in which I live, behind closed doors, it would most likely overwhelm me completely.
    What the MSM is good at is to press the public's emotional buttons.
    When I was still in transition between being a sheep and being more in control of who triggers me emotionally
    and was still watching TV news, albeit with more discernment I started to study how editors play the game of impacting the public. And I found out that the consciousness behind that is very callous and cold. Like screen writers who write with the intent that in minute 37 of their movie they want every movie goer on the edge of their seats, and in minute 88 they want them holding hands with their partners. The art of making others gasp and cry.
    They know very well how hard it is for a caring person to ignore these events,
    and that's when they turn on their manipulative controls to top levels.
    So now I flat-out refuse even to look at MSM headlines.

    What goes on in my mind at all times is the full knowledge that birth and deaths are happening all around,
    that some happens in the presence of respect and some happens due to cruelty and manipulation.
    But I am taking care of myself when it comes to guarding my own inner state...my equilibrium, my energy field...
    Because the moment I get triggered emotionally I become quite useless, so the least I can do is chose who I allow to trigger me. This keeps my connection to my maker, the Almighty, free from interference and static.
    Just sharing.

    Yep, one things for sure is that watching TV is a danger to your mental health,
    i have had to deal all day with ppl with PTSD getting majorly triggered by this
    latest shooting. And my best advice is always the same,
    turn off the TV .

    Good Morning

    Back in the country....ahhhh. This trip I took advantage of the city. Got my hair cut, which is alone a fun thing sometimes, but when added that N has become a friend that I have missed....coool! After I left the salon, I made the observation that the older I get, the blonder I get. Also went to a favorite store, Earthbound. Got a beautiful incense holder and some lavender incense. Also found coal tablets for my sage! Yessss!!!!! And, taking advantage of a sale, bought my first salt lamps. Oh, I'm cookin' now! New to incense, coal tablets, and salt lamps. Fun stuff!!! Sadly, they do not carry essential oils There is always online...

    Em called me the night I was away to say goodnight. That warmed my heart. And, of course-who doubted?-she was absolutely fine. Thanks, guys.

    No major revelations on the trip this time, but I have to say I am glad. So much to process in the last week that I am...almost overwhelmed. So much is coming to me. It's very exciting!

    I kept up with Village happenings, but I am so glad to be back to my computer!

    Much Love,

    i believe
    Life is a road we don't travel alone. But everyone's on their own journey home.
