    Thanks everyone for the Black Panther wisdom.
    Today is a "within" day for me, that's for sure.
    With Saturn square my AC there isn't much choice.
    Even if the mind were willing, the body is totally out of it.
    But at least I'm not sick, like one of my friends....
    (who I will text now to send her get-well wishes.)

    Also using this quiet down time to send comforting acceptance thoughts to dear Thunder.
    But it's about a week after the funeral that reality of parental loss will really start to sink in,
    when life returns back to "normal", yet there is no such thing...

    lol yes it is.


    and the comments that come at me since I became vegetarian, from people that still pay for and consume toxic "food" from fast "food" chains and insist on eating a lot of meat are bewildering sometimes. "You need the protein, your hair might fall out." "You could lose your memory or your brain might dry up." "I heard that New Agers don't eat meat, are you one of those?" What does one say? There are times I want to say to them I don't want to be food for Archons or a house for Demons or support the war on terror.... or kill or eat anything that has a consciousness -group or otherwise.

    My natural tendency was to not eat meat in the first place. When I was child there were times I couldn't even palate it all or look at it. I really need to go with what is natural for me. My own conscious has also been a key factor in not consuming meat. There have really been some positive side effects too in the last year for me on all levels. I'm much clearer and experience the world much more clearly too, which sometimes I would rather not to be honest. But with new levels of understanding & (with soulspirit awareness) comes complete responsibility for one's thoughts and actions -which takes your conscious & (consciousness) to a whole other level and gives ethics a whole new meaning.

    Justone, I totally support you in what you are doing. it's been over a year now for me. I still struggle once in a while with the body. But I have been going into cellular memory and some of the darker areas of my soul spirit memory and letting it go & working it out; this has helped me with the body and it does get easier.
    I just want to support life and do my best.

    Thank You - I am beginning to experience all that you wrote about above. It is amazing when one gets to the point that one can observe every single thought. But it is possible. In the observation, I am able to examine where the thought comes from, especially when it is a thought I prefer not to have. Going deeply into the foundational matter has allowed me to discover why I would have such thoughts and then, I would be faced with the opportunity to change my mind about my point of view. Then, everything seems to change.

    I find that keeping my life as simple as possible (especially when it comes to things I think I need - whether it is physical things OR (and perhaps far more so) when it comes to expectations I have of others) - the less I require of others... the less I think I need this or that physical object, the far, far, far more peaceful each and every moment becomes.

    At the same time, I am able to examine more and more the larger picture (most of which I do not have first hand experience with - such as Satanic Ritual Abuse and the practice of Human and Animal "sacrifice" as well as the abduction phenomena) I am able to explore these things in a new, less attached and less emotional way. At the same time, I am able to examine more and more the heart of these matters and am in process of working out possibilities I could be of help with regards to others evolving in a direction where we can individually and collectively gain sovereignty of our Spirit(s) which somehow suggests to me the opportunity to unify our "soul" component with our mind and body components such that our Spirit can become whole.

    I came down with perhaps the worst flu I have ever had. It started a few days ago. I am already on the upswing fortunately. In a strange way, I have this feeling this flu event is somehow cleansing something out of me... but that is just a feeling. I hope my recent clarity returns as I was really enjoying the benefits of my cleanse / diet and this flu seems to have set me back a bit.

    Love to All - Chester

    Another great post there, Chester.
    I hope you'll feel better soon.
    All flus are cleansing opportunities, and even if that is not true,
    it is still a positive way of looking at illness.
    And it didn't set you back, it put you right here and now, where you were meant to be.
    It happens whenever we are ahead of ourselves...

    As for me, my bad tooth has been pulled. Hurts a little but I'm relieved it came out with no problem.

    Going within today
    I find myself in a garden.

    Which reminded me of Baha'u'llah's words:
    "In the garden of thy heart plant naught but the rose of love....."

    Here and now...some garden images for all

    Your garden photos Ulli, reminded me of the Butchart Gardens, Vancouver Island BC, Victoria. Also that I need to work in my own garden, let part of it go the last couple of months -pull some weeds, prune back some bushes.... the Rosemary has gone wild this year and the bees are enjoying all of the purple flowers I don't dare touch it.

    Took a trip up the Olympic peninsula, rain forest, glacier lakes into the North West coast of Washington state and side tracked from Port Angeles to Victoria then took the ferry back and drove up to Anacortes and over to Oak Harbor. Wonderful unplanned vacation.

    The Butchart Gardens are beautiful

    Funny, in France we have the stories of Arsène Lupin, the "gentleman burglar", who sometimes gets into some pretty esoteric situations...

    Oh yes, Arsène Lupin, really liked that serie.

    Talking of garden, my mom is selling hers. It is beautiful and was an inspiration to my daughter. She would imagine in the sparce space on the land that the dinausores were living there and would come to us from the cleared out forest. Me, I grew up there - don't know why, it never seems as an inspiration when you are right in it. Although I remember the tiny flowers in the underwoods and the wild strawberry flowers in June, avoiding to walk on them.

    Thank you for the gardens, Ulli. They are so beautiful and uplifting.

    This morning I played a most difficult funeral...double funeral actually...mother and son.

    Bryce was 23 years old and killed by a town policeman two weeks ago...many stories circulating about what happened...lots and lots of questions...no straight answers.

    The next day his Mom Karen, 52 years old, had a heart attack and ended up in a coma...until she died a few days later.

    The family that is left (Bryce's Dad, younger brother and sister) is devastated.

    I'm one of the few that don't mind playing funerals...it helps those that are grieving...and I usually "see" the spirits that have passed along with others who gather with the living. Today, the church was filled.

    How I wish the family could have seen what I did...it would have given them much comfort....so much "light" and "singing" and peace.

    Of course, I cried like a baby...usually do. Not good for playing...wet, tear filled keys are a bit slippery. My heart gets so full...between the pain and the joy.

    As I read what I just wrote, it sounds crazy...I sound crazy. Maybe I am. I really do feel like I have a foot in both worlds at such times. Hard to explain.

    Dear Belle:

    I truly honour your work. I happen to feel comfortable at funerals. I sense and 'see' so much there also.

    What a gift you give. A dear friend of mine works at hospice...she feels more comfortable there than anywhere else.

    She lives "between the worlds"....


    I suppose we who are on this path are the ones who are priveliged. I can remember way back when these concepts were never spoken of, where everyone I knew considered them taboo...

    It was lonely.

    I am grateful today.

    Anastasia
