Here and Now...What's Happening?

From recent post I've read on threads, I see that it is easy for people to think I am coming from ego, or over posting, or whatever I could not begin to imagine. If that is the case:

I Love You
I'm sorry
Please forgive me
Thank you

Peace,
Paula

Same here.

This last trip exhausted me. Not only because I was sick, but because it was so short, and so much had to be crammed into very little time. That deadline thing...to have everything packed and stored by a certain moment...brought an anxiety factor into my normal serene state of being that now that I'm home again with no particular time pressure to worry about, had me collapse into endless naps. Every time I woke up from another nap there was this sense of disorientation...powerful dreams which could not be recalled, three cats with nearly human determination to nail me down on this bed forever, and a changed Avalon and Village atmosphere that reminded me of a ghost town.
Where is everybody?

Question: Where is everybody?

My opinions: In United States, there was a three day weekend. May/June is filled with commitments of exams, graduations, pre-wedding and wedding festivities. Some of the astro reports said there'd be misunderstanding in communications this month. I see it on the forum, therefore people are weary to post.  

The June 1st dead-line for major Earth changes may have spooked some. And there's a feeling like waiting for the other shoes to drop. Non-stop events around the world. People are shell shocked and need reassurance. They come to the forum only to be reinforced on how bleak things are out there. Perhaps, people see the only way to remedy is to log off and go within, enjoy family and friends, work with/on the things they can.

Also, some are unaware of the alignments. It's a time for good-byes, break-ups, and physical relocations. Which in turn causes displaced anger and hyper-sensitivity. So we see an increase of people leaving threads, the forum, or aspects of their lives.

And of late, the scientology threads and off-chutes, trigger the last vestiges of hidden fears to be released. For sometime, we've learned that each takes personal responsibility for their life choices. But with these threads, there's lots of miscommunications and parallel talk on one successful way.

My pet-peeve is the subtle and not so subtle word play, where there's 'potential' for a bait and switch, sales pitch. It's so incremental that it's missed, but our higher selves are helping to awaken to these energies. The reality like you and many here and on threads point out, we already use our natural gifts. We don't need a program that is not in alignment with our awakening DNA. It's just not a map that works for many of us.

I know I've over simplified it. That there are different levels of understanding to the whole scientology concept. But I work best from a real simple model. Yes, I want to make this a better world, but don't tell me how I will do it.

Jim, if you read this, it would help if you got to know us. I'd rather you share ideas rather than a program. And if you are sharing ideas and not a program, I’ve missed it because I’m only a spot visitor on those threads. I mean no disrespect. I’m choosing to align with what I came here to do. (see quote below)

Topic change:

Oh, I know how I’m going to die. Eating garlic. Yes, apparently it’s poison. A helpful thread would be one on what I can eat because I like food too much to become a breatharian. Not pointing fingers, I am the first to say, I upload harsh reality posts. Not to instill fear, but to help everyone prepare. But see that’s the conundrum. Many would say, I live in a Pollyanna world. But for forty-five plus years, it’s belief and inner knowing that what I see is what I create. Now, I actively do that for the larger world.

A quote says it succinctly from, “Ann, The Voice of the Magdalenes,” Claire Heartsong:

“To prove or disprove - to argue and contend is a waste of precious time. Contention is not my way - awakening to our Infinite Nature is. There is more to be accomplished than to fabricate another history or Grail romance, whether based in truth or fiction, which distracts you from the true enlightenment of your mind.”

Seconds after I sent my post, there was a crash just outside my place. A woman swerved to miss a speeding car coming in the opposite direction in her lane. Her's rolled over twice before hitting a telephone pole. She wasn't wearing her seat belt so she ended up in the back seat. The other car didn't even stop.

By the looks of the car, she's lucky to be alive. Maybe it was good she didn't have her seatbelt on. Car's all squished. She's got some Big Angels. Her neck hurts, but the time the ambulance came she felt the rest of the pain in her back, too. The telephone pole is dangling. So, I'll loose electricity again to replace that one. Better send this off....

Sending this out to Rita and Higher Self to choose to accept it. She was willing and grateful for the company while we took care of business.

Wow, Paula, I knew I shouldn't have posted that car crash gif...
but it was the balloons that popped out which made me do it.
Maybe you have yet to get those....

Oh, dang! Lost that post. Electricity went out again. Four trucks total. Two erecting pole. The short version was that I’ve been up since 3:00 am. I was thinking how the grid might go down and concerns for these last three days of 90+ degrees.

After the accident, I put it “out there” for a smooth transition. They’ve never turn on the electricity for a while, and then go to work. Thank you... So I snuck another pot of coffee on.

Better get this post out... While the balloons still float. Ha!

I heard that if you eat a lot of garlic you lose all your friends and you die of loneliness.

I’m working against the electricity clock, so this is a three-fer-one or is it one-fer-three? No time to discern....

Paula and Ulli
Everyone has at least some ego till the final door of enlightenment is gone through
You both perform a valuable service which is much appreciated by myself and many others.
I don’t think your posts are prompted by ego--you are sharing what interests you.

With love chris

Thank you, Chris. I’ve finally come to the realization that I’m not here to seek enlightenment. But I will welcome it when I go through that door. Still figuring out what I’m here for. Something about living my passion and Love.

Paula, you do post a lot. joined in February 2012, posts over 4,000!

And such excellent content, with links and graphics and a successful thread, a needed thread for the newcomers.
Who cares what people think. I think you are great!
So there.

Thank you, Ernie. 4,000 post, dang it! ....that’s what too much coffee and a lot of hot air will get ya!

Ha! funny Orph.

Well the first part has happened, but I only started eating lots of garlic. So I can't blame it on that. I've added big chunks of garlic to my fermented veggies. I couldn't eat it before without getting heartburn. As for dying alone that's a possibility, but not of loneliness. I love my life. For now, I live alone but I am not lonely. Anyone else in it is extra garlic sauce on top.

PS I know you were joking.

Good Morning, Village

My facebook share for the day.



And mindless humming, I could add.

I'm surprised I don't have a hangover, here and now. I'm not feeling tip top, but far from the misery I should feel. Mike built an outdoor fireplace out of cinder blocks out in the back. And I have discovered I am a fire goddess, haha. Mike splits the wood and then comes to find me so that I can play fire goddess. Apparently our new nightly activity, when he is here anyway, will be sitting outside by the fire, watching the red coals, watching the flames, listening to the pops and crackles, mesmerized by the red sparks that shoot like firecrackers and then disappear. Hours pass like minutes. So far, the heat of the day has subsided enough by dusk that it is the perfect temperature to sit by a campfire. And last night, wine by the campfire was heaven. We listened to thunder roll in, watched the sky as lightning gave us a wondrous show. And came inside in time for me to pass out (not literally) and sleep like a baby.

Ahhhhh. A moment of relief, release, wonder, and gratitude.

Much Love,

[thunder24]

High Weirdness all around me. That's what it is.

Yesterday was Em's first day of "work" at the herb shop. What a day she had. I went into the shop to pick her up at 2pm, and of course she didn't want to leave. Ended up, she stayed another few hours. But, for the high weirdness...

I had a very odd experience in my sleep about a week ago. Sorted it out, then left it behind. Until yesterday. I went in the store to pick Em up, and there was no one in the shop. I sat down and waited for Em to gather herself and people started coming in. First a couple, then a few more, and within five minutes the store was packed. People milling around, browsing the yummy smells and tastes and sensations. And one...being...came in and sat down at the table. A very...odd...being.

My subconscious beat my consciousness over to examine...her. Mind you, I looked around and watched the hub-bub in this shop of fascination, and I noticed each person or couple or group. But this...woman...caught the attention of my subconscious in a way the others did not. Something wasn't right.

A woman...60's it appeared. Bleached hair, botched job there (sorry, I'm still a woman, no?)...Even sitting down, I could tell she was unusually tall. Easily over 6 feet. And big, she was. Not big in size, big in build. But her head was easily twice the size it should have been. And I sat there, it felt like scanning every thing about this woman, and I wasn't even looking at her. And then she spoke. And, oh yes, this was a man. But it wasn't. A man's voice, a man's being, in the shape (roughly) of a woman. This was not a transvestite, believe me I've lived in Dallas. This was not a case of a male energy in a female's body. This was not a case of a gay man or woman. Please don't ask me how I know this, I don't think I could explain. This was a being disguising itself in a human body, but didn't get it right.

And when it spoke, it used words in English but said very odd things. It said it came in to sit down and cool off and get a bottle of water. But had no water. And said that the carrots it had bought at the market this morning were already wilting in it's car. That it ate the tops.

But never once, I repeat, never once, looked me in eye. Having a conversation with me, it thought. And my attention was fully on this being, scanning every inch, while I was reading the book "Back to Eden" that was sitting on the table. I can't say that I understand how that was happening either. The book all but fell open in my hands to a page where Bible scriptures were quoted...scriptures about the body and the mind and the difference in how to care for each...the difference in each.

And at some point I left the shop. Picked Em up later, and she was full of wonderment about her day...all the people she met, interesting people she said. Haha. She met the mayor, a real slimeball she said. And she started in about having met a transvestite. So I asked if she was talking about this being. She answered, "No, that wasn't a transvestite, that was an energy sucker."

Well, that's not something you hear every day from a 14 year old. She said she and Susan had to smudge the shop when it left. And I said, "well, not only that, but it wasn't from around here, either. It wasn't from here." And as I heard this coming out of my own mouth, at once I knew that to be true.

Em said, "No, she, or he, was from Ft. Worth."

Well, I had to laugh out loud to that. It cracked me up. I said, "Oh, is that what they call it? Yeah, um, actually, from a little farther out." And Mike was sort of chuckling at the same time, further validation to me that what I spoke was true.

And then later, reflecting on this...wondering what it was I was to glean from this, thinking about Em's safety in such a shop with weird energies coming and going. It hit me like a ton of bricks. This was the same essence of a being that I had met in the dream experience. In the dream, same size, same awkwardness in trying to wear a human body. Same refusal to look me in the eye. Same difficulties with making sense. Same....everything. But different color of hair.

I have no answers. But I swear to you, this was not my imagination. And this was not a person struggling with gender issues or body issues or sexual orientation issues or any other manner of human issue.

I was never scared, never felt any fear, not even a whiff, for even a split second. But somewhere inside me I was alert in a way I cannot explain. I did not consciously put a defense up, I did not consciously (or subconsciously) ready for some kind of battle or brace myself for any kind of confrontation. At all. But there was something about this...and having met two of these, whoever/whatever they are...within a week of each other, one in the physical world and one not...only creates more questions.

There it is, Here and Now. High Weirdness, I say.

Much Love,

[Orph]

TV Series "THE IMMORTAL".

I remember recording the music introduction with my General Electric Cassette Recorder. I recorded with a microphone.Then, my Grandmother (her name was America Diaz Nava) said something like "What are you doing?" and i become mad because her voice was mixed with the Inmortal Opening. I had to wait one week for the next chapter and try again.
Later, my father, ordered an audio output from the tv, in order to recording without micro. That was magic.

...and you'll still know nothing 'bout me


"Epilouge (Nothing 'Bout Me)"

Lay my head on the surgeon's table
Take me fingerprints if you are able
Pick my brains, pick my pockets
Steal my eyeballs and come back for the sockets
Run every kind of test from A to Z
And you'll still know nothing 'bout me

Run my name through your computer
Mention me in passing to your college tutor
Check my records, check my facts
Check if I paid my income tax
Pore over everything in my C.V.
But you'll still know nothing 'bout me
You'll still know nothing 'bout me

You don't need to read no books on my history
I'm a simple man, it's no big mystery
In the cold weather, a hand needs a glove
At times like this, a lonely man like me needs love

Search my house with a fine tooth comb
Turn over everything 'cause I won't be at home
Set up your microscope and tell me what you see
You'll still know nothing 'bout me

Right now ive done the Inelia Benz meditation for reconnecting with the spirit of money, and the first image that came to my head was an opening flower of light with thing long petals, it was faint but a bit purple, I was very happy that I got a positive image the first time I am trying this meditation, I think as I progress on this meditation the petals will enlarge and the image will become clearer, that is the feeling I have now that I have finished. I often find it hard differentiating what actually comes from my ego and what the money is truely saying, I reasure myself that the images coming to me are only the ones that are being expressed by the money and that it is ok to have them and be open to receiving them, I feel happy and greatful for the interpretation that my imagination has given to the message, it is a true gift to be able to listen with acceptance and peace. Goodnight my loved ones.

High weirdness, continued.

Today when I picked Em up from the herb shop, S (the shopkeeper) and I talked about how Em is doing up there. I mentioned all the interesting people that come and go. S asked me if I heard about the one person, yes, the one I just posted about.

She had a few things to add to my sense of the person. And she was absolutely shocked at how I read the situation, how much detail I gave her about the...being. She had a few very basic impressions about the being, and it was a great surprise to her that our descriptions jived so well.

Here is the problem. S apparently needs to be able to shield herself and her shop a little better. Not that she would keep anyone out of the store, that's not it at all. It is the energies that come and go. Apparently, she projected her energy around Em the whole time the being was in the store, no thought required, and wouldn't leave her in the room alone with it. But she also became very drained.

My only idea was PL's, er, Reilly's, candle...Thou Shalt Not Pass...I do not know that will work for sure, but she did write it down to try. She is willing to try any amulets, charms, what have you...she and I just don't know any other things to protect the place. It is different now that Em is there, more pressing a need.

So, anyone have any ideas?

Much Love,

Hi 1inMany,

These are some of my techniques and views on Beings:

I ask them to show me their Light. I also bring out/up my Light to show them their world does not match mine. I tell them they are not invited and to leave now.

If my own Family of Light hangs around like I know them too, the bad guys don't even bother. Though, it's my call every time to make the decision to allow them in or not.

I use a combination of intuition, inner eye, inner ear, sensing and peripheral vision. How I know them to be of the Light is that I only feel Love and Peace wash over me. And it’s part of my daily maintenance, to nurture the Light within through Tai Chi, reflection, right foods, reading, etc.

There were a couple of times in the last nine months when guidance didn’t feel pure as I know it to be. When I asked to see their Light, it wasn’t brilliant. Which meant it’s not someone that I choose to accept guidance from. They weren’t negative, just not high enough to allow them to stay. I ask them to leave and as fast as they came in, they left.

Love,
Paula

Hmmm ... There is a group that make orgone cones, and then place them where needed. Apparently they put one outside a prison, and the violence and hostility dropped dramatically.

I've also heard marking every door, every window, every opening with a cross prevents negative energy. It can be as simple as a cross marked in pencil on the top of the door jamb where it won't show.

Love, Sierra

[1inMany]

Very good advice, Paula. I wonder...have you ever said those things to beings in the physical? I mean, here we sit in a God-fearing, Bible-thumping community. She was open in that shop for a good 6 months before religious fanatics quit coming in and yelling at her to leave, or that she was going to hell for who she is. I think they would have burned her at the stake were it not that some preacher or another came in and asked if she believed in Jesus. She said yes, of course she did not clarify how or why or who that is exactly.

This woman is drawn to plants, right? I mean, as far as all outward appearances, she might be into natural cures to illnesses or teas to calm. That's about it. But these people had decided she was a "witch" and they were the "Salem."

It is better there now. But if there are people in the little shop, it's your typical environment. People milling about, she might be helping someone with an herbal remedy, etc., and there happens to be something amiss, someone not of the highest light...well, there is the issue of how to handle that in front of a shop full of (possibly) small town religious folk.

What would you do in that situation? Maybe the direct approach like that is still the best one, I really don't know.

Thanks, Pauler

Much Love,

¤=[Post Update]=¤

Oh, Sierra, that might do it also. I know she printed some of the book of Psalms and put it by her door a long time ago, something that was important for personal reasons, and she says that helped with the feel of the place.

Thank you! Now getting a notepad and making a list to pass along.

Much Love,
