Here and Now...What's Happening?

[araucaria]

Interesting comment by a descendant of Bulwer-Lytton, whom many claim to be the worst writer ever; he says that being the first person "to have penned a cliché was a mark of genius".

http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/book...-bulwer-lytton

‘Bulwer-Lytton also invented the sayings "the pen is mightier than the sword", "the great unwashed" and "the almighty dollar"’.

Clearly there is a time issue with coining a cliché and the difference between a genius and a failure is a question of timing.

Here is another new expression that I would like to see become a cliché. It’s from our own justonechester: “I am a psychopath”.

I am a psychopath and so I believe I have insights about psychpathy that others may not have. Not all psychopaths have to manifest the evil side and I can say with all truth and honesty, I have been a very, very good psychopath for quite a long time now (several years).

If I saw that in a novel, it would be bad fiction, because that is something no psychopath would ever say. Much of their incurability has to do with their inability to admit that they have a problem. Speaking as truthfully as he can, Chester has invented the concept of the self-aware psychopath, and in being “a very, very good psychopath” he is opening up a path towards the concept of the curable psychopath.

This is Chester’s great original contribution to this forum and beyond. I am not saying anything new here, I am only helping to build justonemorecliché

Well, yes, timing is everything.
I'm a psycho, too. Lets all start a mutual admiration society of cliche making aware psychopaths.

Well actually, I was thinking more in terms of ex-psychos, which is something of a miracle. Chester is into miracles right now. I’m into synchronicities, which are minor miracles and make for bad fiction. Paul Auster’s use of them in his novels is much criticized, and his defence is that they keep happening and he is just telling it as it is. See his The Red Book for some pretty amazing examples.

A while back I sent a friend a long piece I wrote on this very subject. Last night I got an email from him saying he had had a synchronicity of his own in this connection while my thing was still in the post. So that was rather neat – predictable and predicted, not as to the detail, but as to some such event happening. When something gets predictive like this, it becomes somewhat scientific, and the closest we are likely to get to the ‘objective evidence’ people keep clamouring for.

Hello Villagers, stopping in to read some posts. Hey Paula is Rad really coming back soon? If so wonderful news, this place is missing him to say the least. I Hope all is doing well here in the village.

I feel and see he's close. With a couple more of us feeling/seeing him, I'm guessing what... a couple-three weeks?

Modwiz is smiling out there somewhere...

Maybe he should join The United People forum....Chico and the boys could tell him if he's really a psychopath! Lol.
Ok feeling naughty, Modwiz must be on his way back!

Didn't Gore Vidal as well as Kurt Vonnegut write about them? I don't remember which novels they were, but the Gore Vidal one had his musings about Rudolf Steiner, and subsequent synchronicities, and I remember clearly how Kurt Vonnegut called them "road signs".

My next stage was the discovery that every time I read about synchronicities they started to multiply in my own life, which made me realize that choosing where I directed my attention opened a kind of a life feedback with pleasant surprises.
Conscious choice to what impression I wanted to be subjected to.

Just finished reading Graham Hancock's Entangled. Bloody brilliant (very bloody actually! And a bit scary). Had me on the edge of my seat. Couldn't put it down.

Modwiz just sent a thanks message...says all the recent Here and Nowers energies were an inspiration and he is making music again. Who knows how good this is gonna get?

Full moon tonight,
Making some lunar crystal essences,
potent stuff.

It's midnight and I'm wide awake,
powerful energies

The full moon tonight, is only one degree off my natal sun,
so intense for sure.

[Kiforall]

Not sure who/what I'm in battle with at the moment but there is alot of comradery, especially when I use the ultimate weapon (love/source) a respectful laugh comes my way, then the next counter-attack creeps up on me.

There is a dark energy but no more frightening than a sibling I don't fully understand.

I have no blood relative brothers or sisters in this life but feel like this presence is a brother of a deep, dark past. He doesn't like Love but that is all he is getting from me (once I know he is there) then he retreats, I feel a loss when he goes, there is a definate attraction.

It doesn't feel right to use the words love and weapon in the same sentence but I'm hoping the more I use it to fight against the negative aspects the more I'm able to tap into it all the time.

I'm finding a rewind button I didn't know existed, I feel like I can go back one page, add an attatchment and proceed changing the thought reality that had occured only seconds ago.

The nicotine habit seems broken

New addiction is now Minecraft

Hello Gripreaper,

A synchronicity for me...your posts from an unvisited thread from before I was a member. I downloaded, "Anna, Grandmother of Jesus" by Claire Heartsong. It's on my list of things to do today. Thank you.

Posted by gripreaper (here)
Read "Anna, Grandmother of Jesus" by Claire Heartsong to find out the true story of when Yeshua walked the planet, straight from the eyes of she who was there. This book is in the top 5 books I've read in my entire life, and I've read thousands of books, and I highly recommend this book.

So, what made this book so important for you? Did it share anything proven factual that could be verified

This book, juxtaposed through the lens of empiricism and the left brain of the polarized patriarch, will not resonate. One of the edicts of this paradigm is that time is linear and that reality is viewed sequentially and can be verified through the five senses, and is relative to the 92 elements in the periodic chart, as solid, with the ability to either combine them, or change them.

In the photonic quantum field energetic matrix of all that is, time is spherical and all energy resides within that matrix in the present moment, and reality is malleable as light packets oscillating between two polarities, at different velocity, which causes animation and matter to appear.

So yes, Claire has tapped into this energy and "channeled" Anna, and the energy is "encoded" to touch each individual who reads it right where they are. I've read this book at least six times, and each time, it touched me differently based on my own awakening.

So, if you are looking for empirical proof, this book is not for you. If you can filter this book through your own energy field, specifically your heart chakra, with a mind that has both hemispheres in balance, then it may resonate with you. It did for me.

Posted by gripreaper (here)
During this Equinox transit, I express as clearly as I possibly can, my deepest core intentions, and send them out into the great divine Sophia, the space of "all that is" with as much particularity energetically as I can, with as much specificity of focus as well as amplification as I have ever done in my life.

Welcome to the golden mean, the nexus of opportunity, and the presence of all creation standing with us.

Still reading "Anna, Grandmother of Jesus" by Claire Heartsong. I make myself put it down so I can reflect and get other things done. My reward is I get to read more. It's triggered body sensations, and memories that are just out of reach. My dreams are different. New places. I'm waking up to recall them because I hear instruction to do so from Higher Self, and go right back into them.

Anna assures that we are all capable to do what she and her group did/does. It makes me feel both inadequate and encouraged. It makes me see how much time I'm wasting on petty fears and judgements about myself and others. My alignment of purpose and balance is renewed.

Thank you, Gripreaper.

Much Love,

Even unintentional giggles have intention behind them

If no one else has an Uncle Bob, well I had one, although that was a very long time ago.

And I'm still auracaria (nice: aura) or auricaria (golden aura) or something unspellable like that. My apologies to the dyslexics out there, but I'm not changing it to tree

Edit: 'Bob's your uncle' is a phrase that may not travel very well. It is just a kind of verbal exclamation mark (or point)

Golden aura. The name suits you. Araucaria = tree. Thanks Wikipedia.

Here and Now...enjoying some fresh air. It is quite cool, but at least there's no snow and ice. Our first rose bloomed. I read recently that the rose is the flower whose vibration or frequency is the highest, spiritually speaking. I wonder if that's true.

Looking at this creation of Mike's.



All that's left is to hang the spouting around the roof. I'm impressed, I must say. Maybe not the prettiest, maybe not the most efficient, I couldn't say. But it's impressive to me.

Oddly, Kiforall, I sort of understand what you are saying. I vacillate between the different views on these energies, and I do so wish I could settle on one. It would make my life simpler.

It's not that dark energies are bad, or evil. But that said, I see what I would consider evil all over the place. Sure, I see it in the big world, other countries and such, but I see it close to home, too. I see rape, murder, hard drugs, abuse and neglect of children and adults both. All in my own little circle. And that's a partial list.

I also see beauty, maybe the problem is that what I sense is much bigger than what I see. So when my sensing is failing me, possibly in shadow temporarily, the beauty does not seem to balance the ugliness much less outweigh it.

I see beauty in that first rose, I inhale it's sweet perfume and there is nothing else on earth like it. The fresh air is a welcome soul boost after the chemical fogs have lifted. When Little One smiles, or when Em laughs (she is such a silly girl)... that kind of beauty fills up the soul, too. This Light...these small miracles...I have to look for more of these.

I've been sleeping a lot lately, and resting even more than that. The other day, I listened to literally hours of Kryon. And the message delivered was basically uplifting. I just don't have connections like I did.

I'm grappling with how to handle these darker moments of life. I'm told this is an opportunity for growth. I'm told to greet these darker moments with compassion. I'm told resist them. I'm told to fight them, accept them, acknowledge them, feel them and allow them to pass. I don't know if I'm communicating it right, but it seems that all the instructions are contradicting. In this case, of apparent contradiction, best advice I would give someone else is to follow intuition. Somehow telling myself that is more difficult as the intuition comes with the connections, which are not as apparent.

What to do? Here and Now...going back outside to soak in the rose, listen to the birds sing in the silence, watch the trees sway. And finding gratitude for this day, this moment.

Much Love,

[Eram]
