    turns out it was three juvenile/adult racoons bouncing around on my front steps, crusin' for food n' stuff. So I turned the light on and stood there. No response. Then I tapped the screen door glass. No response but to look at me. then I started to tap the glass strongly. they became agitated like a dog waiting to get in, being teased by their owner. so I opened the door a bit and verbally shooed them. Go Away, I said, we got one already!

    they tried to come INTO the house, when I opened the door. No fear of humans, at all. I was eating a bit of a sandwich, so I tossed that out there and they pounced on it immediately.
    When they damaged your house did you get cross with racoon kind?

    Could there be a minor bit of karma playing out here?

    Why did you feed it if you want it to go away Slippery slope to adoption - LOL

    There were a lot of LOLs at my end, too, when reading this post.
    No fear of humans? What he means is "no fear of Carmody".
    At least not YET.
    We'll see about that one, but may need his permission.

    Carmody, would you like the Villagers to teach those raccoons some respect?

    And the way they pounced on that sandwich he had tossed out there...

    That reminded me of how some Avalonians pounce on the posts he "tosses" out.....

    Passing the synchro-cup, last night, as you posted this, my mother was enlisting my wife's help in posting a picture on FB of the racoon that has taken residence up in their yard, hanging out with the cats and enjoying the bounty of cat food. I had to laugh, waking up this morning and seeing this.

    Heard a scritching noise by the front door about three minutes ago. So I snuck up on it, thinking it might be a mouse. The front door was open, with the screen door being closed.

    turns out it was three juvenile/adult racoons bouncing around on my front steps, crusin' for food n' stuff. So I turned the light on and stood there. No response. Then I tapped the screen door glass. No response but to look at me. then I started to tap the glass strongly. they became agitated like a dog waiting to get in, being teased by their owner. so I opened the door a bit and verbally shooed them. Go Away, I said, we got one already!

    they tried to come INTO the house, when I opened the door. No fear of humans, at all. I was eating a bit of a sandwich, so I tossed that out there and they pounced on it immediately. Maybe their mother died, but I'm the last person in the area they should be coming to, as I just had the landlord repair the roof from a raccoon intrusion, if any of you recall that bit.

    bye the bye, Just before that, I had a call from my father, which is unusual, but a happy thing.

    Anyone care for another cup of synchronicity?

    The caption they put on the photo was something to the effect of Meet the cats' new BFF. Yes, my mom is corny to the extreme.

    Weather and Mass Consciousness are manifestations of one another. Weather modifacation is weather magic with a bigger apparatus. One heart in the right place does have the potential to bring nefarious machinations to naught.

    JB can work it a little different than you, Play, she being an air element, like myself. Let the energy of your own aura expand on out into the storm, feel it out, push and pull and stop the spin. A little simplified, but that's the gist of it.

    As for Archangels, when we enlist with the Most High, them boys work for us.

    Tornado warning sirens are sounding, the sky is dark. Someone told me how to collapse a tornado ... I connected with one, but have a feeling there are more than one out there. These ones are wrapped in rain and hard to spot on radar. Doing it by feel.

    PL, Playdo, anyone out there who does weather wizardry, would love your help. There are four different areas in Alabama with potential tornadoes.
    Has the weather passed?
    I'm getting a map out now and putting calming balm on those weather disturbances.
    I think the tornado threat is all but over ... it has cooled down enough now, so we're just getting lots of rain, thunder, lightning, wind. It still looks severe on the map, but no rotating winds.

    Thank you Ulli and everyone! :D
    Hey Marianne, I'm just now catching up on the Village, so I missed your request at the time. I am glad to hear all is well by your post above. My method, in a tornado or severe weather, different from tropical behemoth storms, is to go outside and directly communicate with the storm. I first state protection for my home and family and expand that outwards to the city/vicinity, etc. I visualize the energy coming down from above and also up from below (Gaia, the earth) to utilize the torsion field, and then I harness that energy and state and visualize that energy pushing the system from below and raising it up higher and higher so that the system does not touch the ground. In scarier situations (the last time I did this was during the colossal tornado storm that leveled Smithville, MS and Tuscaloosa/Birmingham area in April of 25-28, 2011), I have performed the Lesser Banishing Ritual,

    [url]

    to request help and protection from the archangels, though this practice may be very unorthodox in formal magick. But for a redneck, I say what the hell! It's your intent that is vital. Regardless, doing this with the intent of service to others and protection for flora and fauna, I have found this effective. Also, I must add that I learned this from Purple Lama, so he may have more to say on this. I hope this helps.

    Racoons... I had a dream about them last night, and I have my regular visitors. Turns out that the raccoon that came in my house earlier this spring was a mama. She has since introduced her 4 kids to me. One night, two of them spent a couple of hours playing on my princess balcony (from my bedroom). I have a blanket there for Romeo. They had a lot of fun on that, and then one of them had a little nap. Cute to watch. They have no fear of me whatsoever, light, shoo shoo, banging on the door, seems to amuse them more than anything. I don't forget to bring Romeo's food inside for the night anymore...

    Well... this is officially my first day of work. Nothing better than to start it off with a paid holiday ! hehe... No more anguish or bouts of depression. I am calm and ready for the challenge. I will do what I do best : shine ! I do have an intuition that something has been brewing there while I was enjoying my time off. I'll know soon enough.

    Welcome Mitzvah! Please have one of those fresh figs "au naturel" for me and Flash, will y'a ?

    Love to All.

    This is exactly how I see it.
    Which was the initial purpose of this thread...to have something at the collective level that will alleviate collective fears, and calm the stormy seas. And it can only be done by people who know how to BE in the Now, and the Here.
    And you have never let me down. Thank you so much for understanding.

    The Bahai prayer for protection was written by the Bab, in his own hand, in the shape of a five pointed star.



    The five-pointed star in astrology forms five angles of 72 degrees each.
    In occult teachings this angle denotes protective cosmic energies.
    Hence they built the Pentagon that way, too.

    So the rituals PL shared here are in line with these higher principles.

    By the way, PL, Abdu'l-Baha was a Gemini, born on May 23 rd, 1844, the exact same day the Bab declared he was the herald of the promised messenger of peace.
    And I just found the horoscope online...surprises never end.....

    In my adaptation of the LBR, I actually invoke the six directions, adding a seventh, The archangels being east, south, west, north, and adding Father above, Mother Below, and Child within. The Pentacle is used to seal each direction.

    There is great power in the Bab's prayer, no doubt about it.

    Had dreams of survival last night, people in hiding only come out to scrounge for food. It was a little unsettling. Always glad to wake up from those dreams.

    Playing catch up after having my grandsons, quiet around here

    Enjoy your holiday! Peace to the village!

    There is great power in the Bab's prayer, no doubt about it.

    Here is a translation of that prayer:
    http://www.bahaiprayers.org/protection7.htm

    In the Name of God, the Lord of overpowering majesty, the All-Compelling.

    "Hallowed be the Lord in Whose hand is the source of dominion. 
    He createth whatsoever He willeth by His Word of command “Be,” and it is. 
    His hath been the power of authority heretofore, and it shall remain His hereafter. 
    He maketh victorious whomsoever He pleaseth, through the potency of His behest. 
    He is in truth the Powerful, the Almighty. 
    Unto Him pertaineth all glory and majesty in the kingdoms of Revelation and Creation and whatever lieth between them.  Verily, He is the Potent, the All-Glorious. 
    From everlasting He hath been the Source of indomitable strength and shall remain so unto everlasting. 
    He is indeed the Lord of might and power. 
    All the kingdoms of heaven and earth and whatever is between them are God's,
    and His power is supreme over all things. 
    All the treasures of earth and heaven and everything between them are His, and His protection extendeth over all things. 
    He is the Creator of the heavens and the earth and whatever lieth between them,
    and He truly is a witness over all things. 
    He is the Lord of Reckoning for all that dwell in the heavens and on earth and whatever lieth between them,
    and truly God is swift to reckon. 
    He setteth the measure assigned to all who are in the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them. 
    Verily, He is the Supreme Protector. 
    He holdeth in His grasp the keys of heaven and earth and of everything between them. 
    At His Own pleasure doth He bestow gifts, through the power of His command. 
    Indeed His grace encompasseth all, and He is the All-Knowing.

    Say: God sufficeth unto me; He is the One Who holdeth in His grasp the kingdom of all things. 
    Through the power of His hosts of heaven and earth and whatever lieth between them,
    He protecteth whomsoever among His servants He willeth. 
    God, in truth, keepeth watch over all things.

    Immeasurably exalted art Thou, O Lord! 
    Protect us from what lieth in front of us and behind us,
    above our heads, on our right, on our left, below our feet and every other side to which we are exposed. 
    Verily, Thy protection over all things is unfailing."



    When Bahaullah appeared 9 became the main number.
    Nine assembly members, at local, national, and international levels,
    nine Holy Days.
    The nine-pointed star, or enneagram, became the main symbol, and is even used on Baha'i grave stones.

    ”...I have had my grandsons for 4 days now. I have felt like they should be placed in a bubble to protect them from harm. I wanted no broken limbs or other injuries to happen to them. One is severely allergic to mosquito and spider bites. Epi pen close by for an emergency, thankful I did not have to use it. A fine line to be walked when to let them be kids and when to intervene in certain activities.

    Lorax, Chicken Little, movies were a safe choice for me. I was told by there mother not to let them go in the bushes or dig holes etc. I thought that was what they were suppose to do, must be that generation gap again. Oh well, their other set of grandparents get to take over today. Thankful nothing major happen on my watch! “
    Thank you to the mosquitoes and spiders for co-operating with Benevolent Crow and her grandsons. Oh, and the bushes and the holes undug (or not).

    Thank you for nothing happening on Benevolent Crow’s watch.

    Had dreams of survival last night, people in hiding only come out to scrounge for food. It was a little unsettling. Always glad to wake up from those dreams.

    Playing catch up after having my grandsons, quiet around here

    Enjoy your holiday! Peace to the village!
    It depends what type of food they were looking for....
    And if you could welcome them to a free banquet
    Maybe could be fun...
    A party!

    Wow thanks for that WCBD.

    I have to now add my experiences as well, as we live on a second floor walk up where our door is, leading to our third floor apartment. We have a cat that lives outside during the summertime and there is a trio of raccoons, a mother and 2 of her kids, that love that cat food more than life apparently. They are not afraid of the girls that live in the apartment downstairs and will walk up and over to the cat dish to eat no matter who is out on the balcony relaxing. The girls downstairs have learned to close the door at the foot of the stairs in the evenings now and we have to manually go out and get the cat to bring him up to feed him, he can jump off the balcony into trees or a high fence to get down. It seems to be working, but if someone forgets to close the door and the sun goes down ... the cat food becomes raccoon food without fail.

    One night I was out with Rae and he was eating. He looked up and at the passageway leading down to the door and hissed and of course, here come the raccoons, marching to the food even though I was sitting right beside it! I had to yell at them in what had to be raccoon language in order to get them to leave! It's a futile effort though. I know they've gotten upstairs whenever I come down in the morning and all the food and water is gone, since Rae doesn't eat all of his food in one night and the raccoons always leave dirt in his water dish.

    I'd expect creatures with hands to be a bit more fastidious.
