    This NextWorldTV thing is about decluttering a house

    Thanks, Ulli.

    I thought the write up was worthy of posting here, at least in part...

    "Lighten Up Your House, Lighten Up Your Spirit

    It's all about energy. You block new things from entering your life if you hold onto old things cluttering up your space. They detract from the available energy in the seen, and unseen sphere of your life.

    We all know how great a clutter clearing of the house or office feels. This video, which highlights the Feng Shui perspective, explains that objects do not just take up space and make it harder to have an orderly house: they actually make us tired because they reflect old, tired and stuck energy. We are obligated to them in ways that we feel as well as see.

    It is a distraction for your soul, even if the house is big enough to hold the stuff. The sense of being impacted and stuck is there even if the items are arranged in an orderly way....

    ...A book case full of only books that we really love and resonate with, and want to refer to again, by contrast,is very pleasing to behold.

    Every item you can recirculate back into the world gives you not only that space on the shelf back, it releases the energy that is attached to it. You can liberate your life with less stuff and make room for your NOW energy.

    --Bibi Farber"

    I read in one of your comments Ulli the "s"trolling possibility and I hope that if you or anyone ever feels I am trolling (or that I might be a troll), tell me and I will do my absolute best to adjust (even further) than I already have.
    Time for lunch. Be back later, Chester
    Chester, you have reached such a high level of authenticity, in my opinion, that trolling could never be an issue here.
    The word "strolling" was yours, and I wanted to emphasize how welcome such an activity is,
    and that those two activities can never really be mixed, as they cancel one another out.
    You might want to listen to the "don't worry, be happy" song as your next homework assignment.

    Chester, you have reached such a high level of authenticity, in my opinion,
    I second that. You drill up to a certain point into a bar of gold, and if you see no tungsten you know it is pure gold all the way through. Chester is coming from somewhere maybe none of us have ever been, but we recognize him as the genuine article.

    Why is there so much fake gold bullion in the world? Because there are so many tungsten people in disguise, yes, and so many pure gold people who don't let you drill down. Thank you Chester

    OK... here is my attempt at clarifying the matter of the known facts about these cycles of asteroids/meteorites pummelings:



    I think that too many cyclical events are being correlated to ONE companion star to our sun and inferred to be a dwarf star named "Nemesis."

    One type of cyclical events is illustrated with this "clock":


    A PLOT OF DATA ON LIFE EXTINCTIONS, COLLECTED BY DAVID RAUP AND JOHN SEPKOSKI AT THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, SHOWS PEAKS IN THE EXTINCTION RATE OCCURRING AT 26- TO 30-MILLION-YEAR INTERVALS, AS INDICATED BY ARROWS

    The above from: http://www.lbl.gov/Science-Articles/Archive/extinctions-nemesis.html

    Check this java applet to get an idea on the long-period orbit of such a "companion":

    http://astro.ph.unimelb.edu.au/central/Mirrors/binary/binary.htm



    The other is given by the 26,000 year cyle of the precession of the equinoxes:

    http://binaryresearchinstitute.org/bri/research/introduction/theory.shtml






    Due to the existence of both type of "clocks", and accordingly, that makes our solar system a TERNARY star system with one star called "Sun" and TWO companion stars BOTH named NEMESIS.

    There lies the confusion!

    Wasn't it Arthur Neuman who said something like: "The real trouble is that everything is happening at the same time!"?
    Now that the main "clocks" are disentangled:


    Keeping with the train of thoughts of some of the magnetic reversals being due to falling skies on people's heads... here is the illustration suggested by the Binary Research Institute for the existence of the Oort cloud Sheer Edge:



    Now, that's quite a pool (billiards) game!



    That particular 26,000 year clock would have it's "midnight" every time this solar system gets bombarded with these asteroids.


    It therefore seems like the "elite" have gotten a pretty good idea on when that "midnight occurs, earth-time wise.


    This is also the scenario promulgated by Laura Knight-Jadzcyk and the "Cs."

    Thinking of it though, it doesn't really matter where one goes in hiding within this solar system when all of it is going to be pummeled like Dresden during WW II... unless their secret space program is really about getting out of this solar system for a while...
    Now... on the other hand, every time one of these cycle completes, there are LESS and LESS of these asteroids/meteorites left as potential projectiles against this solar system ... which make it easier to focus and deflect the remaining ones!




    To corroborate with the Dogon cosmology there are these other interesting recorded cylces about Sirius:


    From: http://binaryresearchinstitute.org/srg/SiriusResearch.shtml


    Quote Mr. Homann concludes below that:
    "These observations clearly indicate that the so-called 'precession of the earth' is NOT a scientific fact, and that the Sirius system has a noticeable gravitational influence on our solar system."

    INTERPRETATION OF THE DATA:
    Significant time deviations in earth's period of rotation, as measured with respect to Sirius have occurred over certain months (e.g. in the spring of 1989, when Sirius A, Sirius B and the sun were in direct conjunction). Some minor, but nevertheless distinct deviations appear at regular yearly intervals (usually around March). Since these deviations occur annually, the gravitational influence of the moon or perturbations caused by other planets in the solar system can be excluded. Since such deviations from mean sidereal time CANNOT be caused by an increase or decrease in the speed of earth's rotation, I suspect a combined 'gravitational' effect of the sun and the Sirius system on the earth's axis of rotation. In my article "Some more thoughts on gravitation" I have tried to describe how the Sirius system might be responsible for a 'curvature in space' that can reach as far as to our solar system. As we know, the revolution of Sirius B and Sirius A around their common center of gravity over a period of about 49 years proceeds in an almost vertical plane relative to the planetary plane of our solar system. This motion could cause a periodic fluctuation in the curvature of space, similar to an ocean where a calm wind would create long-stretched waves. If a ship were to sail on such waves, its mast will gently swing back and forth. Likewise, during the earth's orbit around the sun the axis of the earth would 'oscillate' due to these periodic fluctuations of the space-curvature between sun and Sirius. Although the speed of earth's rotation remains unchanged (!), a positive or negative time-deviation from mean sidereal time can be measured, depending on the magnitude and direction of the oscillation of the axis, the sidereal point of reference and the latitude on earth from which the measurements are taken. As a matter of fact, the International Earth Rotation Service observes significant daily variations in earth's sidereal rotation period.

    It is also very important to remember that despite some major variations in earth's period of rotation, the mean time interval of the sidereal year or earth's complete orbit period basically remains constant.

    Even more surprising is the observation that the mean time interval of the sidereal year, as measured with respect to Sirius is nearly identical (by less than one second) to the time interval of the tropical year. According to the theory of 'precession', a yearly time difference of about 1223 s is supposed to occur between a sidereal year and the tropical year.

    The meridian transit measurements of Sirius have shown that neither a time difference of 6 × 1223 s, nor a difference of 6 × 3.34 s has occurred over the 6-year observation period from April 1994 to April 2000.

    These observations clearly indicate that the so-called 'precession of the earth' is NOT a scientific fact, and that the Sirius system has a noticeable gravitational influence on our solar system. Obviously, Newton's laws of gravitation cannot explain Einstein's universe. In that respect, it requires further study to see if the 49 year cycle of the Sirius system can provide us with an explanation of the large fluctuations and annual irregularities in earth's rate of rotation that have also been observed around 1941 by experts at the US Naval Observatory.

    Additional Comment:
    Two other phenomena should be mentioned that took place during the conjunction of Sirius A, Sirius B and the sun around the beginning of February to the end of March 1989, as the function of the time deviation entered from the negative into the positive range (see Graph 1). During this time our outermost planet Pluto, whose revolution period of 248.421 years is exactly 5.0004 to 1 in relation to the Sirius B - Sirius A's orbit period of 49.68 years, went through the perihelion of its very eccentric orbit. On 23 March 1989 an 800 m long 'rock' came in strikingly close proximity to our earth at a speed of about 70.000 km/h. Missing our earth by only a few hours - thereby sparing us a gigantic catastrophe - it also went through its perihelion between sun and Sirius. Thanks to astronomers, who discovered it as it already disappeared again into the vastness of space, a major widespread panic was avoided. These celestial phenomena are not subject to plain coincidence, but are lawful celestial mechanical events. In fact, the Sirius system determines the second (empty) focus point, which is essential for the elliptic orbits of these and other celestial bodies in our solar system. Keep in mind that even our earth has its perihelion around January 2, as it passes through the conjunction of sun and Sirius each year

    According to how records have been deciphered, Ancient Egyptians were VERY obsessed with Sirius. That was their chronometer/clock.
    Thank you Amzer Zo for an amazing eye-opener of a post. I shall need to give this more thought thought but right now the following few comments come immediately to mind.

    Robert Temple's The Sirius Mystery, amazing in its own right, needs to be reread in light of this interconnection bbetween the Sirius system and our olar system, notably in mathematical terms. I would like to see what a Terence McKenna-style graph would produce, i.e. substituting the Sirius date for the I Ching data. Maybe the I Ching is a Sirian-based technology.

    This could also be a possible mechanism whereby the speeding up of time passes from a subjective impression shared by many to an objective effect produced by the acceleration of the sun in its orbit as it passes these nearby stars.

    I would also like to see how these data compare with the Nibiru 3600 year scenario. This would be interesting, not fomr the viewpoint of obtaining corrobarative data, but to see how the one could be used as a mask to wallpaper over this other story.

    Once again, thank you Amzer Zo, for joining already known dots into a new constellation.

    Before anyone else gets sucked in by the Cassiopaeans I advise them to go to Jay Weidner's site and see what they find there about Laura Knight.
    Here is an excerpt...(thanks Calz, for bringing her up earlier, so that this could come out)



    Quote The main reason that Laura attacks me is because I know all about one of her big con jobs which I call :
    The House Raffle Scam.
    http://web.archive.org/web/200211060...ouseraffle.htm

    In 2002 Laura raffled her house (see above link). I watched via the internet as she sold tickets to the house raffle. Claiming that her home is Port Richey Florida was worth three times more than it actually was, Laura never declared a winner and she and her husband Ark soon mysteriously escaped to France with all of the money.

    Later Laura sold the house to the Swanson family for $95,000.00. This is clearly an illegal act. This is clearly fraud, grand theft and larceny.

    No one knows but Laura how much she scammed in the House Raffle Scam. Sources close in say $150,000.00 in tickets were sold. When you add on the sale of the house the scam could be as high as $250,000.00.

    Laura has never offered to give the money back to the ticket buyers. As usual she blames everyone else for the criminal activity while taking all of the money for herself. Until Laura comes forth with the truth about the House Raffle Scam we have to assume that the higher figure is correct.

    Here and now, decided to perambulate through the village....

    When I was in high school I wrote for the school paper. The paper's editor, now my sister-in-law, and the teacher in charge of the paper, were constantly rejecting my ideas and they would never publish my articles. Around that time, I came across news in the media about impending doom and probable asteroid events in earth's future, and how scientist were coming up with ways to defend the earth against an asteroid strike. So I wrote a satirical piece about a possible defense solution called the Galactic Prophylactic (I didn't coin the phrase http://snltranscripts.jt.org/82/82apopeil.phtml), wherein the most massive and strongest rubber would be made and attached between to two ginormous poles extending into outer space. The incoming asteroid would be caught within the gigantic rubber and would stretch and stretch and stretch until it bounced back to launch the asteroid back from whence it came. And you can probably guess at this point, they refused to print my article.......

    You would have been better off had you sent it to SNL directly, as a sequel story. Those guys love continuity....

    (By the way, in outer space there is no such place as "whence it came"...as everything shifts, never to be repeated again.)
    So here we can see the difference between earth matters and heaven matters.

    Going out on a limb a bit here.... but I think that other realities or galaxies are possibly imposing (merging) themselves on this one -at least grazing it; another possibility is that a whole entire (multi) universe (very near ours) may becoming unstable and having a quantum to physical effect on our galaxy. If this is what is occurring my question would be, what is the cause of this instability?

    Just a couple of theories..... not based on Astro-physics or Astronomy but founded on experiences I have had through the years. I have watched a moon rise on several occasions much further south than our moon rises and on several other occasions watched the sun rise in the west and set in the east. All of which left me in a place of looking around my surroundings to make sure i was still standing on planet earth....

    Have fun......
    Ever since you posted the ripple tank http://www.falstad.com/ripple/ months ago on another thread.....I used it to study to see what effects (if any) it would have on eye and ear conditions. I am partiallly blind and deaf and have extreme skotopic sensitivity.

    I have been changing the color, dimensions, speed and incorporating sound..... to see what the effects would be on the optic nerve, fore brain, mid brain, old brain the limbic system and pineal gland. Also, thinking about what kind of effect this kind of sound and light therapy would have on the diseases Alzheimer and Parkinson and stroke patients on the quantum to physical levels.

    The ripple tank then led me to natural fractal geometry and sound using the same methods to see if there was any effects on my sight and hearing. I can say there has been an improvement -using both the ripple and fractal geometry. I don't wear contacts or glasses as much and my hearing is improving.

    Hehe, Calz, did you hear that? Frozen chunk of poopie, like everything else from Laura's website, and a few others.
    (...excuse me for spelling it out here, since they seem to have frozen Calzie's brain too...)

    and besides I hold her responsible for misbalancing another friend to the point that she fell off a chair and broke a bone in her hand.
    I wouldn't mind putting her into that giant slingshot of Playdo's and sending her to some place that really needs to be decluttered. Sorry if this gif offends any Japanese....it's meant to look like Laura Knight.

    Behind the barn there is now a cellar door. We have just received a delivery of special shields, one each, plus a few for the larger teams.
    Calz, you are first...go and get yours.







    Not that one, Calz. That was the wrapping, duh!

    Last bits of data regarding these meteorites/asteroids periodically visiting this solar system:


    Little bits of iron in favor of the meteorite hypothesis:

    The mystery of mammoth tusks with iron fillings
    By Ned Rozell

    A giant meteor may have exploded over Alaska thousands of years ago, shooting out metal fragments like buckshot, some of which embedded in the tusks of woolly mammoths and the horns of bison. Simultaneously, a large chunk of the meteor hit Alaska south of Allakaket, sending up a dust cloud that blacked out the sun over the entire state and surrounding areas, killing most of the life in the area.


    Embedded iron particles surrounded by carbonized rings in the outer layer of a mammoth tusk from Alaska. Inset photo shows how an object ripped through the tusk. Image courtesy Richard Firestone.

    Such is the scenario envisioned by Rick Firestone, a staff scientist at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California. Firestone and his colleagues have found mammoth tusks and a bison skull with nickel-rich iron particles in them on one side, suggesting the metal fragments all came from the same direction.

    Firestone's theory emerged when his colleague, Alan West of Dewey, Arizona, saw at a Phoenix gem and mineral show a mammoth tusk peppered with tiny bits of metal. Intrigued, West and Firestone looked at tusks owned by the same dealer in Calgary. By passing a magnet over mammoth tusks in Calgary, Firestone and West found seven mammoth tusks collected somewhere near the Yukon River and a bison skull from Siberia that had tiny iron fragments burned into them. The fragments also contained nickel.

    "One in 1,000 tusks had this material in it," Firestone said.

    Then, this last one that occurred 12,000 -- and change -- years ago:

    Meteorite storm 'smashed the Earth 12,000 years ago and killed off a prehistoric people'
    By Daily Mail Reporter

    PUBLISHED:09:49 GMT, 12 June 2012 | UPDATED:15:01 GMT, 12 June 2012
    • Scientists find 'melt-glass' in 12,000-year-old rock
    • Melt glass forms at 1,700 degrees - equal to atomic bomb
    • Meteorites thought to have triggered a cold snap that killed off early civilisation and giant animals
    Scientists have found compelling evidence that a meteorite storm hit the earth more than 12,000 years ago, and is likely to have been responsible for the extinction of a prehistoric people and giant animals including mammoths.Evidence of the meteorite’s intense heat was found on two continents. The researchers believe the huge cosmic impact triggered a vicious cold snap, which caused widespread destruction.

    The international team found a substance known as melt glass, which forms at temperatures of 1,7000 to 2,200 degrees Celcius and can result from a ‘cosmic body’ hitting the earth.

    Extreme heat: The meteorite impact caused the 13,000-year-old quartz found in Syria to melt and boil, creating features including burst bubbles and flow textures

    The material was found in a thin layer of rock in Pennsylvania and South Carolina in the US, along with Syria. Tests confirmed the material was not of cosmic, volcanic or human-made origin.

    ‘The extreme temperatures required are equal to those of an atomic bomb blast, high enough to make sand melt and boil,’ said James Kennett, professor of earth science at UC Santa Barbara.

    The melt-glass appears identical to other material found in Meteor Crater in Arizona, and the Australasian tektite field, and also matches melt-glass produced by the 1945 Trinity nuclear airburst in New Mexico in the US, Professor Kennett said.

    The team's findings support the controversial theory that an asteroid impact occurred 12,900 years ago and triggered the start of an unusual cold period on Earth, leading to widespread extinction of human and animal life.

    In the cold period, known as the Younger Dryas, North American megafauna including mammoths and giant ground sloths disappeared forever, along with a prehistoric civilisation called the Clovis culture.

    The Clovis people used distinctive bone and ivory tools and are regarded as the first human inhabitants of the New World.

    Match: Melt glass, known as trinitite, formed during the Trinity nuclear airburst in New Mexico in 1945 when rocks melted. The scientists say the melt-glass is similar to that found in the 12,800-year-old rock


    Evidence supporting the theory has now been found on three continents, covering nearly one-third of the planet, from California to Western Europe, and into the Middle East.

    Syria is the easternmost site yet identified in the northern hemisphere, but the researchers have yet to find a limit to debris field of the impact. Melt-glass has been found in rock layers of the same age in Arizona and Venezuela.

    Scientists found the melt glass - evidence of the meteorite's intense heat - in Pennsylvania and South Carolina in the US along with Syria

    The three sites found in the latest study were separated by 1,000 to 10,000 kilometers, suggesting that ‘a swarm of cosmic objects,’ either fragments of a meteorite or comet, had hit the earth, Professor Kennett said.

    Professor Kennett added that the archaeological site in Syria where the melt-glass material was found –– Abu Hureyra, in the Euphrates Valley –– is one of the few sites of its kind that record the transition from nomadic hunter-gatherers to farmer-hunters who live in permanent villages.

    ‘Archeologists and anthropologists consider this area the “birthplace of agriculture,” which occurred close to 12,900 years ago,’ Professor Kennett said.

    ‘The presence of a thick charcoal layer in the ancient village in Syria indicates a major fire associated with the melt-glass and impact spherules 12,900 years ago,’ he continued.

    ‘Evidence suggests that the effects on that settlement and its inhabitants would have been severe.’

    The study was published today in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

    That melt glass reminds me of what is being marketed as " Gaia Stone"
    which is supposedly from the Mount St. Helens volcanic eruption of 1980.




    I found it hard to locate a supplier of the "real thing"
    but i can vouch for it being a very good stone for energetic
    workings, especially healing and nurturing in times of stress and
    trauma.
