What is Dyngus Day?

It's April 13, 2020 Historically a Polish-American tradition, Dyngus Day celebrates the end of the often restrictive observance of lent and the joy of Easter. Over the decades, Dyngus Day has become a wonderful holiday to celebrate PolishAmerican culture, heritage and traditions. There are many stories that attempt to explain the origins of the day. Many Polish customs date back to pre-Christian, Slavic practices. The custom of pouring water is an ancient spring rite of cleansing, purification, and fertility. The same is true of the complimentary practice of switching with pussy willow branches. Since 966 A.D., Dyngus Day has been associated with the baptism of Prince Mieszko I. Tradition states that Prince Mieszko I along with his court were baptized on Easter Monday. Thus, Dyngus Day and its rites of sprinkling with water have become a folk celebration in thanksgiving for the fact that the first king of Poland was baptized into Christianity, bringing Catholicism to Poland. In more modern times, the tradition continued when farm boys in Poland wanted to attract notice from the girls of their choice. It was customary to throw water and hit the girls on their legs with twigs or pussy willows.

Cologne was used instead of water by the more gallant lads. The ladies would reciprocate by throwing dishes & crockery and Tuesday was their day of revenge, imitating the same tactics. ______________________

"Coronavirus - Meeting Covid-19 Head-On With Anthroposophy" By Josef Graf

While the latest pandemic expands into the world, it is of significant value to be apprised of the indications Rudolf Steiner has given on flu-like ailments.

With this arena of knowledge, we can be prepared, and to some extent, rendered relatively safe from its effects.

Before setting down the Steiner indications here to peruse, it is well to review some of the more current thoughts and speculations that are being set forth in the media on this coronavirus (a generic name for a virus that originates in an animal and transfers to humans) - keeping in mind that this body of information is, for the most part, part of the modern materialist hegemony.

The usual mis-information about influenzas still holds sway, despite the Steiner indications of a hundred years ago - that the condition is passed on by the virus aspect (not so, says Steiner - more on this further on); that heavy duty hygienic warfare is needed; that containment is essential, etc.

In addition to mainstream avenue ideas, there is also speculation that this ailment (I won't call it a virus, because that is not how it is passed on) might have been "weaponized" in a lab. This may, or may not be so. Time will tell.

And, if it is, once we apprehend the Steiner indications, it may not matter, anyway, in terms of keeping relatively safe.

Page | 16

Then, there is the idea that wherever we have had these modern pandemics, they have tended to originate wherever high tech radiation has been a factor.

In this case, the first roll out of 5G technology is said to have taken place in Wuhan province. This factor may very well be an important consideration.

But the issue of invasive radiation technology must comprise another article.

And, in any case, the Steiner indications still hold to be of utmost importance.

The Steiner indications on flu-like ailments Anyone who is wondering about Covid-19, or any other flu-like ailment, can discover more relevant information in the Steiner material on health and illness, than what is available elsewhere, in terms of comprehending the overall picture.

If we pursue the indications given by Steiner, by gleaning through the overall anthroposophical material, and then apply our capacity to delve further, then we arrive at the following kinds of understandings: - the origin of Covid-19 is likely due to the debasing of the general astral field of the area (and many of the inhabitants themselves) due to suffering animals. Massive factory farming in China has been degrading the quality of life for animals for a while now.

- both the Wuhan lab work, and the local animal meat market, contained suffering animals and/or animal meat products. In the case of most lab work, there is usually suffering entailed in the experimentation with animals, as well as confinement in a cage. In the case of the animal market, which likely sold the meat of animals who suffered undue confinement, Steiner asserted that the suffering of animals lives into the meat. In turn, that suffering persists in the astral bodies of humans who consume the meat, until it is purged. One way for the astral body to get purged is by contracting a severe ailment.

- in short, animal suffering lives in "mass meat" and eggs, etc, and is transferred into human astral bodies.

- the virus, itself, does not pass on the condition - it just goes along for the ride (more on this below).

- the condition is passed on via human astral body to astral body connections, or even just through the general astral field whenever enough compromise builds up.

- there are also other causes to consider that induce the condition to become contracted -they comprise things like: intake of "hideous" images (1) (common in video games and many movies); over-intake of protein; cold, Page | 17

abstract thinking (anthroposophical pursuits are a great antidote then); fear of illness; fear or trauma embedded in the soul; past life karma entailing a compromise in any of - overly materialistic thinking, immoral engagement of occult secret wisdom, or engaging activity that is debasing for the soul.

I want to add here, that, although one might have this list "covered", one can also contract a flu out of a need for cleansing (toxins, carcinogens, etc). Then the illness is a blessing, and helps prevent worse things (notice the rise in cancer, due, in part, I would contend, to the use of the flu shot).

With the above considerations in mind, once a person engages and responds to the list of factors, if he or she still gets the condition, it can be seen as a blessing. The illness as the remedy on a soul level.

Anthroposophy, the super remedy of our time, is well to engage. As are also its meditative exercises.

Those who consume mass meat and eggs, or any food containing suffering animal energy, are the ones most likely to contract the condition - or at least to get the worst cases of it.

Meanwhile - some key questions to carry are - what is being covered while focusing so intently on this issue? There has to be some covert agenda. Or, is it the case, as some have suggested, that the hidden powers behind the scenes want to promote a regime of switching to digital currency, since the financial upheaval that is coming to bear may pave the way by allowing this radical new system?

And we can ask, to what extent is the rampant fear in humanity, as evidenced by the masses responding in the way they are - running for masks, and allowing their environments to be sprayed with all that poisonous substance (and to kill what?) - just adding to the power of the pandemic?

Some further perspectives from a spiritual science approach Consider this - if the ailment is not passed on by the virus - all this focus on the virus is a red herring. The virus just goes along for the ride.

Steiner describes the situation as follows: when it rains, water builds up and frogs breed and populate. But we don't say the frogs caused the rain. To say that the virus causes the condition is to make the same error.

Because of our materialist perspective, we believe it must be a thing, a virus in this case, that causes the ailment.

Page | 18

Then, recalling the Steiner list - those 150k people who contracted the ailment (by the middle of March) likely had compromised astral bodies - ate mass meat, took in "hideous" (1), carried fear and/or trauma, held to confining materialist thoughts, or simply needed a cleaning out.

If all of the above holds true - and there is certainly a great chance it does, given the rigorous and dependable veracity of the Steiner material - how can we convey this scenario to the general public?

And to what extent does the majority of humanity have to remain in the dark about all this, so that the drama plays out and they harvest whatever they seem to need, via the hard road paved by the materialist agenda?

A central point in an article included in 2019 Best American Science and Nature Writing, "Paper Trails:Living and Dying with Fragmented Medical Records", is that "medical error" is the third leading cause of death in the US next to heart disease and cancer (2). With this in mind, and reviewing the Steiner indications on flu-like ailments, consider the work of Ukrainian doctor, Konstantin Buteyko (3) - that indicated that many ailments call for NOT an increase in oxygen, like the medical establishment holds to (asthma is one, but several others are affected by this) - but to allow the body to increase its CO2 level naturally.

Then we might question whether many of the deaths in patients with the Covid-19 condition may be due to medical error. The thought occurred to me when I saw the image of a Chinese doctor who died, while being administered an oxygen mask.

But this gets us into a complicated realm, wherein medical knowledge runs up against its limits. More and more, we are called on to take responsibility for our individual health and well being.

Other Considerations Derived from Spiritual Science There is always more to consider. Steiner asserted that a greater disposition to contract infectious diseases comes from bad habits in a previous life. He gives the example of the Hun invasion into Europe that was instrumental in generating leprosy. The degenerated astral forces in the Huns (which, in turn, derived from a fallen state in lives lived in a previous debased civilization (whose mystery wisdom had been betrayed and misused) played into the Europeans, who were compromised due to fear and terror, which opened the gateway for the astral impact. The Europeans who were most affected by the condition had compromised past life situations, as well.

Another key element in the reincarnational arena is that a person who is an outright materialist in his or her thinking in one life will be more susceptible Page | 19

to contracting infectious diseases the next life.

The whole scenario is complex. If one happens to be carrying a "negative account" over from a past life, then there is a price to pay. That said, the outcome is really the best one possible, since it provides the opportunity to come to balance in one's overall journey through this life - this life of incredible beauty and wisdom, designed by higher beings of utmost perfection.

Steiner described how the origin of an epidemic can arise, also from an astral field debased by untruth. "Imagine a people which was composed entirely of liars, the astral plane would be populated solely by the corresponding demons and these demons would be able to express themselves in a constitutional tendency to epidemics. Thus there is a certain species of bacilli who are the carriers of infectious diseases; these beings are the progeny of the lies told by human beings; they are nothing else than physically embodied demons generated by lies." (GA 99 - L.6) Steiner also stated that, "Nothing will here be said against the bacterial theory which to a certain extent is very useful. In the various ways by which bacilli arise here or there one can naturally find out many things; for purposes of diagnoses one can generally get a lot of information. In no way do I want to say anything against official medicine, except that it needs to be augmented and developed further when it arrives at certain boundaries — and it can be developed further when the points of view of anthroposophy can be applied to it". (GA 319 - Polarities in Health) Steiner compared past belief in superstition with modern scientific germ theory: "I have no desire to uphold ancient superstitions. . . nor to support the modern superstitions that bacilli and bacteria cause the different diseases. We need not consider to-day whether we are really faced with the results of the spiritualistic superstitions of earlier times, or with the superstitions of materialism." (GA 314 - Hygiene, a Social Problem) Here, Steiner is spelling it out. Because we live in materialistic times, we adhere to the superstitions of materialism. Thus, the panic-generating forces running headlong. Imagine how it would all play out if humanity were to attune to the reality of the situation. We would embrace spiritual science, ponder the indications given by Steiner, and begin to honour the astral realm, instead of continuing to assail it.

Once consciousness is freed of the illusions now taking up its focus, what arena of thought would we begin to engage? In the following excerpt, Steiner portrays how either end of the human mindset - fear or love - can play out: "All parasites are of Luciferic or Ahrimanic origin. . . There is something, as I Page | 20

said, very helpful for Ahrimanic creatures when they infest the human body.

Suppose we are living at the time of an epidemic or plague. Naturally at such a time we must look after others, and a strong human fellowship or cooperation comes into being, for the karmic conditions may actually be such that the one who in his individual life seems least likely to have the illness, falls a prey to it. . . If we are living among the sick or dying and have to absorb these pictures that are around us and then fall asleep with these pictures in our minds and if nothing is linked with them but selfish fear, the imaginations arising from these pictures in the soul during sleep become filled with this selfish fear, and that enables injurious forces to enter the human body. Imaginations of fear are really the fostering forces. . . . When a noble disposition is present, so that egotistic fear retires and loving help for others prevails, and we pass into the sleep life, not with fearful imaginations but with the effects produced by loving help, this means destruction for the Ahrimanic enemies of humanity. It is quite true that by the encouragement of such an attitude we could put an end to epidemics, if we regulated our conduct accordingly." (GA 154 - Spiritual/Physical Synopsis) Concluding thoughts Those who study the spiritual science of Rudolf Steiner, and adhere to the indications, will fare better than the masses. They will either not contract the condition, or tend to come through it unscathed, and stronger than ever.

Also, there are remedies that can help one's subtle body sheathes to come to balance, and so to work on the underlying, formative elements of one's system. The materialist science of our time (a science that allies itself with pharmaceutical wealth) maintains that homeopathic remedies are placebos, that those who use such a remedy (e.g. Weleda's Infludo comes to mind) are not in touch with reality.

But who in our modern age is in touch with the real under-currents of this worldwide "pandemic"?

A more important issue, now, than Covid-19, is the worldwide climate of fear that is taking hold. Treatment of this issue could comprise a separate article.

Forgoing that for now, the short version of it is: The massive generation of fear is creating a sea of terror and illusion. This sullies humanity's shared astral field, and that of the earth, as well.

Individuals are called upon to protect themselves from its effects, including while awake, and while asleep (when we go to sleep, our astral body and ego separate from the physical and etheric, and journey about in the astral realm, encountering the darkened forces of the materialism of our time, and now this added arena of fear. Have you noticed the darker energy upon awaking Page | 21

since the Covid-19 issue went global?).

Some ways we can clear ourselves of the fear (and materialism), and even begin to contribute to reversing the dark arena of the astral field can include: daily study of anthroposophy, which alters consciousness in an effective beneficial way; practicing the exercises entailed in its spiritual path (see Knowledge of the Higher Worlds and its Attainment, for example, and there are others); engaging the "Courage Meditation" (4); exploring the manner in which illusion, maya, plays into these issues, and discerning what is really going on, in the world and in the spiritual realm adjacent to these events; and giving thanks for both the issues that are being presented, and for the dark climate we have to contend with - because it is in meeting these kinds of things that we are presented with the opportunity to waken sleeping forces within, and engage compassion for one another in the face of challenge.

These items are, in a way, just to name a few ways to proceed. We can carry questions further, and discover more.

Notes: 1 - On the issue of "hideous" image intake, Rudolf Steiner asserted that anthroposophists can watch movies, but they should compel themselves to "rewind" the movie afterward by a meditative discipline similar to one's daily review in the evening ("roukshau"). This means a 10 to 15 minute mental exercise of reviewing the movie backwards - thereby cleaning out the astral body's experience, thus reducing the level of "compromise" in the astral sheathe.

2 - There are those who would argue that medical error is the number one cause of death in the West. This becomes plausible when we add to the official death rates the instances when a patient has its cause of death entered as "heart attack" or "kidney failure", and so on, when the underlying cause can be the over-prescribing of pharmaceuticals and the application of questionable practices (in the light of spiritual science).

For information initially derived for this article on death rates and issues connected with medial error in the U.S., see "Paper Trails:Living and Dying with Fragmented Medical Records", from the 2019 edition of Best American Science and Nature Writing: https://undark.org/2018/09/24/medical-records-fragmentation-health-care/ 3 - Ukrainian doctor, Konstantin Buteyko, pioneered a particular breathing exercise that, when used by asthma sufferers, allowed them to dispense with their puffers, and live free of pharmaceuticals, due to the natural increase in CO2 in their system.

Page | 22

The theory Buteyko held to is that the spirit of someone with an asthmatic condition induces the asthma condition because the person needs a higher level of CO2. So breathing is restricted to get this going. Then medical people interfere and push the oxygen, and sell the puffers for them to use the rest of their lives, and round and round it goes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buteyko_method 4 - The Courage Meditation can be found by searching for it along with the name Steiner. Or it's first line: "We must eradicate from the soul all fear and terror. . . " And another verse that goes well with this begins: "Spirit of God fill my I. . . " These two in combination have powerful effects on clearing our astral body, and also well to use before going to sleep. You will bless the shared astral field with this and have a better sleep.

"Faulty Perceptions: How I Almost Got Arrested” By Barry & Joyce Vissell

Perception is a tricky thing. What we think we see is not necessarily what is really there. We have to be very careful about the judgments we make due to faulty perception. As Aldous Huxley says in his classic book, The Doors of Perception, “There are things known and there are things unknown, and in between are the doors of perception.” Another way of saying this: we don’t see things as they are, we see things as we are. We see the world through our own filters, our own state of mind and emotions. How often have we projected onto others what we ourselves are feeling.

What follows is a true story that happened this past year to me (Barry).

I was returning from a solo river trip on the Owyhee River in southeast Oregon last spring. I was in my pickup truck, with the truck bed filled with river gear, and the back seat filled with our two older golden retrievers, Rosie, and her daughter, Gracie. Driving through Sacramento on busy Highway 80, with 6 lanes going each way, with a sinking feeling in my stomach, I saw the flashing lights of the Highway Patrol car behind me. I heard the loudspeaker command, “Take the next exit and pull over.” Perhaps you know that sinking feeling: I’m about to get a ticket and I have no idea what I did.

Page | 24

Exiting onto a busy city street, I pulled over to the curb to await my fate. The police car pulled up behind me, lights flashing, but no one got out of the car.

That seemed strange. Then, as I watched in the rearview mirror, a few minutes later a second car arrived behind the first, also with lights flashing.

Then a third and finally a fourth car pulled in. It was beginning to look like a crime scene with all the lights and yes, I was beginning to wonder if I was the criminal.

With four police cars behind me, I suppose the policeman in the first car felt properly backed up, so he very cautiously got out of his car and slowly approached the passenger side of my truck. I saw him coming and powered down the front windows. Meanwhile, Rosie and Gracie, in the back seat, were sitting up and alert. The other police were now getting out of their cars and getting into support positions. It all seemed unreal.

Policeman number one arrived at the passenger side window, looked into the truck, focusing on the back seat, looked confused for a moment, then smiled and said, “Oh, they’re dogs.”

I said, “Officer, is something wrong?”

He said, “We got a 911 call from someone who was following you. They described a drunk driver in a white pickup truck with your plates, having trouble staying in the lane, with two little girls with blonde hair in the back seat. Looks like they were wrong about the girls.”

Then he asked me, “Have you been drinking?”

“No,” I answered.

“Are you tired?”

“Actually, no, I stopped about a half hour ago and had a nap.”

“Why would the driver describe you as drunk, swerving all over the highway?”

“Officer, as you can see, I have a few snacks on the seat next to me. Reaching for food might, I suppose, cause me to move a few inches this way or that, but certainly not out of my lane.”

“Would you mind stepping out of the truck for a sobriety test?”

In that moment, I reflected on my appearance. I had been driving or in the wilderness for a week. I was unshaven. I had no idea what my hair looked Page | 25

like. And then the combination of my smell, plus the two dogs’ river smell in the back seat, who knows what assaulted the officer’s nose as he leaned in my window.

I got out and joined him on the sidewalk. He held up a finger and asked me to focus on it as he moved it from side to side. He was looking for nystagmus, one sign of intoxication. At one point my eyes left his finger to look into his eyes.

“Don’t look at me. Just look at my finger,” he barked. What can I say? In my world, I look into people’s eyes, not at their fingers.

Meanwhile, the police officers from the other three cars, some with partners, now stood watching. One officer asked my permission to pet Rosie and Gracie. Another one took a peek into my truck bed and said, “Wow, you’re a rafter! I am too. Did you just come back from the American River?

While answering him, I happened to glance into the busy city street. There was a major traffic jam in all four lanes, with cars moving at a snail’s pace, while every person in every car took a good look at the major criminal surrounded by police on the sidewalk. I imagined someone leaning out of their car and yelling, “Barry Vissell, is that you!

However, no one recognized me and it all ended well. The police officer cautioned me to drive carefully, and let me go. As I pulled away from the curb, I imagined all the officers having a good laugh at the two blond canines in my back seat.

Our senses are often unreliable. It is our job to know this, and therefore question ourselves before we make a judgement. Speaking for myself, I have gotten into trouble many times by assuming things about others, especially my beloved, Joyce.

It is annoying when someone comes up to you and says, “Wow, you really look tired!” Is that supposed to be helpful? Are you going to feel better because of their comment? Okay, maybe you are tired, but more likely, that person is feeling exhausted and projects it all onto you. Better to say, and really mean, “Wow, you look radiant today!”

If you are the person who called 911 that day, of course I forgive you, but I also deeply encourage you to always question your senses, and not jump to conclusions so fast. And just to be fair, Rosie and Gracie did enjoy all the attention they got.

Have you ever had a moment where you felt all of your life experiences led you to this moment? An instant where you knew so deeply down to the very core of your being that you were exactly where you were meant to be, doing exactly what you were meant to do?

In the past two weeks of facilitating these daily Coronavirus miracles healing zoom circles, I have been feeling this sense growing within me but it became crystal clear to me today during our session. And this clarity and gratitude felt so powerful that I began to cry. Yes, I felt so safe to be so vulnerable with a group of about 23 other mighty companions from all over the world.

Allow me to share what transpired today in our joining.

Today’s zoom circle was dedicated to sharing about an article I wrote that just was published in an online physician’s magazine. It is amazing to me how timely the article is for what we are facing today.

As you may be aware, this past week (March 25th to 31st) was National Physician’s Week to honor the healers dedicated to the art of medicine.

Yesterday I was watching the news about an ER physician, Dr. Colleen Smith,1 who is working at Elmhurst Hospital in Queens, NYC – the same Page | 28

hospital where I did the majority of my clinical training as a medical student.

Dr. Smith was expressing her frustration, anxiety, and feeling overwhelmed with caring for patients with Coronavirus. At one point, she is choking back her tears.

Wow. Physicians in general, and ER physicians in particular, do not usually show their emotions so publicly. Even when they work at Elmhurst hospital, a Level 1 Trauma center which now is the epicenter of Coronavirus in NYC. To watch her take down the persona of the tough ER physician who is trained to handle anything, and expose her feeling so vulnerable and afraid- was so very moving for me.

‘Today is kinda getting worse and worse, we had to get a refrigerated truck to store the bodies of patients who are dying,’ Smith said.

‘I want people to know that this is bad, people are dying, we don’t have the tools that we need to take care of them. It’s really hard.’ Smith was of course referring to the shortage of protective equipment such as gloves and masks, as well as Covid testing kits along with ventilators.

‘It’s America. We’re supposed to be a first-world country,’ she added.

As I listened to Dr. Smith share her experiences, I immediately could feel a wave of love and compassion for her and many others like her facing similar challenges. A wordless prayer formed in my heart and if I could put words to it, then it would be something like this: How can I be truly helpful? What is my way to serve here? How can I join with Dr. Smith in healing?

I love how when we pray with a sincere desire, the answer seems to come so quickly. In my experience, when I walk with Spirit ( or Love), the solutions are given as the problem arises. I am learning that the problem is always one of perception. And the healing is the miracle inside the mind that allows for a new way to relate to my experience. Then the so-called problem becomes an opportunity for me to reach deeper inside my mind and heart to connect with love, peace, and joy.

The next morning when I awoke and spent time in stillness, prayer, and meditation, I felt such gratitude. My heart felt like it was bursting with joy. I then took a look at my cell phone and found a text from the editor of Physician Outlook magazine informing me that an article I wrote about two months ago went live both on their online site as well as the print publication.

Page | 29

I was amazed at how the article was the perfect answer to my prayer of how I could be helpful, serve, and join with Dr. Smith and my medical colleagues everywhere.

What was this article about that is so timely for what we are facing today?

The article is titled An Introduction to Physician, Heal Thyself: A Doctor’s Journey from Medicine to Miracles and in the article, I share about my book of the same name.

So, sometime back in January of this year, I had been asked to write about my book, Physician, Heal Thyself: A Doctor’s Journey from Medicine to Miracles ( A mindful approach to healing based on teachings of A Course in Miracles).

Here is an excerpt from the article: When I entered an accelerated medical program right out of high school, I was just 17 years old. I felt this burning desire to marry the science of biomedicine with the spirit of true service. Medicine was a calling that I had to answer. There was simply no other choice.

Did you feel this way too when you chose to become a doctor? Do you still feel this passion for medicine today that you felt as a young medical student? Or perhaps now, many years or even decades later, do you feel disillusioned, perhaps disenfranchised, and maybe even disgusted with the state of medical practice? With the rise in physician burnout and many physicians choosing to leave medicine all together, many of us might be questioning our initial choice to become a doctor. …

My friend, Dr. Marlene Wust-Smith, who asked me to write this article, felt inspired to start Physician Outlook because she feels a strong desire to create a safe space where we can each find our answers to these questions. I believe at some level all of us as physicians seek to answer such questions using the framework that resonates most for us. We might feel drawn to lobby for changes in the sociopolitical aspects influencing access to health care. Or we believe strongly that fundamental shifts are required in medical student education, associated costs, student loans, and debt. Perhaps we are adamant that cutting medical expenses at the risk of delivering substandard health care simply cannot be a viable option.

Through my book, Physician, Heal Thyself: A Doctor’s Journey from Medicine to Miracles, I share the answers I have discovered. But my book is not about sweeping health care reforms or external ways to dramatically change Page | 30

anything about our health care landscape. Rather, my book is a clear, systematic roadmap for the inward journey that I believe we are all being called to take so that the broken health care system that we try so desperately to fix with all sort of Band-Aid approaches can be healed – but from the inside out. I wrote my book because I felt inspired to share this profound message with all those who feel ready for a radically new way to see themselves, their patients, and their role in medicine and healing. See more about her book in the ROC Metaphysical book review.

What is Coaching for Inner Peace?

This radical new way of seeing everything and everyone is shared in what I call Coaching for Inner peace.

Here is another excerpt from the article: Coaching for Inner Peace is rooted in science, specifically in cutting edge research in quantum physics, the stress response, the placebo effect, and neuroplasticity. I also draw from the teachings of world spiritual traditions with the aim to share simple yet profound tools and practices for healing; these include mindfulness, prayer, meditation, chanting, listening to the still small voice within our hearts, choosing love over fear, forgiveness, gratitude, being clear about our purpose, connecting with our desire for healing and peace, and joining with our mighty companions.

My goal is that we experience consistent joy and peace, which I firmly believe is our birthright. It is from this space that all healing emanates. I invite you to open to an inward journey to inner peace and stable joy while you negotiate whatever challenge you face. Perhaps you can share this approach with your patients, and this can grow to include your family and community. Maybe this will be something that expands to include our larger society along with our health care system.

But for now, the most important task you can do is to heal yourself.

Amazingly, this is the most profound gift you can give to others as well.

What made me get so emotional today My parents join me from Queens, NY for these calls almost daily. They are in their late 70s and early 80s. I miss them every day and pray that they stay well and healthy. Today, when I came out of leading the meditation, I saw my Papa on the screen sitting with my Mom. I felt so emotional that tears came to me as I felt a wave of gratitude for them being with me all during these years as I slowly have come to fulfilling my purpose. What a blessing to be their daughter! What an amazing opportunity we have shared together to fulfill this dream of my becoming a physician for inner peace.

When we heal, we don’t heal alone. For me, I feel more empowered, more determined, and more confident in the message I am to share with Coaching for Inner Peace. This whole experience with the Coronavirus has provided me with a portal through which I can step into greater selfrealization. My prayer is that you each may use this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to serve as a catalyst for your growth and expansion.

About Dr. Seema Khaneja: My search actually began with my roots as I was born in India in a family of herbalists and homeopaths. I completed my medical school and residency in pediatrics in NYC at Mount Sinai School of Medicine and NY Hospital-Cornell Medical Center. I then went on to study integrative healing arts including homeopathy, Ayurveda, yoga, and mind body medicine. I practiced integrative medicine for children and adults for almost ten years (mostly in Rochester NY as well as NYC). After my peak experience in India, I seemed to draw a series of many different spiritual teachers to me and delved deeply into studying Hinduism, Buddhism, Vedanta and this eventually led me to A Course in Miracles.

I then faced a chronic pain/ illness that forced me to go even deeper with healing – to look at the mind in a very profound way. While I used conventional methods to heal including surgery and medications, I feel that the shift for healing happened first in the mind and then the rest of the pieces fell into place. My experience of healing inspired me to create Coaching for Inner Peace along with an online learning academy called Shanti Academy where I share tools for this deep healing with my clients. My deep desire is to share the tools that helped me heal with others facing similar challenges.

"Wo, and the Music" by Lee Carroll/Kryon This live channelling was given in McCloud, CA, June 29, 2019 To help the reader, this channelling has been revisited [by Lee and Kryon] to provide even clearer understanding. Sometime information is even added or condensed. Often what happens live has implied energy within it, which carries a kind of communication that the printed page does not. So enjoy this enhanced message given in McCloud.

Greetings, dear ones, I am Kryon of Magnetic Service. Occasionally, we'll give you a story, a parable, an allegory. It's exactly what we wish to do now and when we do it, we always use the same character and the name is Wo. Wo is not a man or a woman. Wo is a Wo-man and, although genderless, your language does not easily allow for a genderless person in a story, so we will call Wo a "he" for this tale.

I want to tell you about this man and what happened to him. We start by examining who he is. Wo is a man who lives in a small town. It wasn't as small as the one you're in (McCloud, CA), but it had at least four stoplights.

[Laughter] It was a small town and it bordered a forest.

Wo didn't feel that he needed to be part of a religion. In fact, early on, he had decided that he didn't like church - not really. He felt the love and he knew of the integrity of so many of those who would attend church, but it just wasn't for him. What was for him was nature. Wo was connected spiritually to the Earth and, when others went out to worship on Sunday, Wo would go for a walk in the forest. Early on, Wo realized the sacredness of the valleys and the lakes and the streams, the animals and the trees, and this was part of his scenario of worship. He felt that he could feel the land talking to him when he went out. So, this is Wo, and now the stage is set to tell you what happened in Page | 34

this story.

Many of you have had vivid dreams or, perhaps, borderline visions, and this is what happened to Wo. One night, when Wo was sleeping deeply, he had something that could only be called a vision. It was so real! It was beyond real in Wo's experience. I wish to tell you as best I can what he experienced, but everything I tell you won't even be half of it. You would have to be Wo to really feel it.

Wo heard the music. Dear ones, what Wo heard and experienced is undefinable. He heard music that was so perfect and so beautiful that it was beyond anything he had ever experienced as a Human on Earth. There was nothing to compare it to. The pictures he saw in his mind and the sonorities he heard were perfect and beautiful.

Now, you might ask, "What kind of music was it?" However, it was not definable. It was not classical or popular. It had no classification. It just was, and it contained all of the instruments that he had ever known about, played perfectly and in a sequence that created melodies that were heroic and romantic, all at the same time. He couldn't believe it. It was almost as though Wo were in black and white and, suddenly, he was hearing in color.

Wo basked in this amazing vision. He couldn't even imagine such a thing in real life, but there it was, and he was hearing it. Wo quickly realized that he wasn't actually hearing it, but rather, he was feeling it in every single cell. It was the most beautiful music ever - undefinable, yet perfect - and then he woke up. He realized that his pillow was wet. He had been weeping, as the vision was so beautiful. He had visited a place in his vision that was sacred, and he had no idea why it had happened.

Now, Wo believed that there were signs from Spirit of things to help him in his life. He had experienced this in the past in the woods, where he would go and have intuitive ideas. Wo thought to himself, "Perhaps this is a sign that I might study some music or be part of something musical? Perhaps this is, indeed, the instruction? However, I've never really had an interest in the performance of music or anything."

So, Wo went out and discovered, synchronistically, that there was a town tryout for a choir. He thought, "This is it! I'm supposed to join something; I'm supposed to be part of a choir." So, Wo went to the tryout. He was disappointed. They told him, in all love and compassion: "Wo, we cannot take you into this choir for three reasons. Number one, you can't carry a tune.

Number two, you have no idea of what pitch is. And number three, your voice sounds like nails on a blackboard." The choir wasn't it.

Page | 35

Wo didn't know which way to turn, yet somehow, someway, he realized, perhaps this wasn't a call to action in the way he thought. And then it happened yet again! The vision repeated. He had asked for this. He had said, "Dear Spirit, that was an amazing experience and I don't know why or what it was about, but please give it to me again." And he got it. He got it in the same way, only this time, it lasted even a bit longer. This time he felt like he was inside it. It would be as if a person was standing inside a performing orchestra or an experience equivalent to actually being inside a guitar while it was being played. You could feel the strings vibrate with you in such perfection that you would weep with joy in what you were hearing and experiencing. A musician would say it was locked in, and perfect. Wo stayed in that vision and he swooned in this experience. This was the most amazing experience he had ever had, ever! Then he woke up. He said, "Spirit, this has to mean something. This has to mean something! You can't take me to a place where I can hear this and enjoy it without it meaning something."

Wo took walks into the forest, the woods, and the meadows, and he looked for some answers there. This was always a place where he would have good intuition and he was right. Because his intuition to go into the woods at this point in time brought him into a clearing, a meadow that was beautiful. The sun was shining, the grass was extra green, and there, sitting in the tree-less meadow, was a beautiful woman. Sitting all around her were young students and the students were beautiful, too.

Wo could tell that this woman was aged, yet beautiful, and she was teaching something. Her students all looked fresh, almost like they all came out of the same school all the same age. Wo was quiet for a moment and he realized something: He could clearly hear her. No matter how far away he was when he came upon this scene, he could hear her very clearly. It was almost as if the wind was carrying her voice right to his ears.

Wo came a little closer and there was no reaction from her. The woman didn't stop teaching and the students didn't look around. So, Wo sat down for a moment and he listened to her teach. Then she said something that triggered a reaction in him. She said the words, "You were born magnificent." This is not anything that Wo had ever considered or heard before in his life. Humans don't normally consider themselves magnificent. Humans, even in their best behavior - in their highest integrity - believe they're adequate, but never magnificent. It's not a common description that he had heard before from humanity. Her voice was amazing. He could sit and listen to it for a very long time. Then she turned to him and said, "Wo, why don't you come closer?" He was astonished.

Wo was startled to find that she knew his name! Perhaps she had been in town before and knew of Wo? Wo was known for his woodworking craft and Page | 36

he was good at it. He had a nice job; he was happy and sufficient. Maybe they had his name someplace and she had seen it? "I'm sure that was it," Wo pondered. But he was curious. He moved closer.

Wo moved close and sat in front of her, and she spoke directly to him: "Wo, would you like to ask a question?"

Wo replied, "Yes, I would."

Then she told him, "Alright, but you have to understand the rules - and here they are. You can ask one question, but I get to ask one back. That's how it will go."

Wo asked his question: "Who are you?"

"I am a sage," she said. "I'm a wisdom keeper. I am one who would tell you the truth from any question you would ask. That's who I am. Wo, it's my turn to ask you a question."

Wo straightened up and he was ready. He thought he was ready, but the question she asked, he did not expect.

She looked at him and said, "Wo, have you heard the music?"

This almost knocked him over. Wo immediately blurted out, "How did you know about the music?"

"Wo, that's another question," she smiled as she replied. "Now I get to ask you still another."

"No. Please answer!" Wo was stammering. "How did you know about the music?"

"Wo, every Human has the music," she replied.

Wo thought for a moment. Wow, that means that every single Human could have that astonishing vision and, perhaps, could experience what he had experienced.

"What a revelation. That's amazing," he said.

"Wo, are you ready for my question back?"

"Yes." Wo was ready.

Page | 37

"Wo, what is your statement?" she asked This took him by surprise. In question form, she was asking for a statement.

What is my statement? Sages are known for being patient and she was. A great amount of time passed between her question and, finally, his answer.

Wo's mind ran through scenarios of integrity, of really what, perhaps, his statement might be. He queried himself: "What is my statement at this particular moment in front of a sage who seems to know information about me that even I didn't know?" He knew he sat in front of someone old and wise and she was giving him a chance to speak his truth, and there was a great deal of time allowed to answer.

The students said nothing. They never did. They were simply quiet, sitting at her feet. Finally, he got it - the idea of what she might have been asking for, and then he knew.

Wo stood up and he said, "My statement, dear Sage, is this: I want more."

She smiled and said, "And so it will be! Please come back and I'll teach you more."

Wo went home and was elated that, through synchronicity and intuition, he had actually met somebody who could teach him. The teaching was: "Wo, you are magnificent. You were born magnificent." These things rang with truth to his ears and, that night, the music happened again!

This time, he could see other things than the music. He saw those who were around him in this vision, as if the music was happening while he was at work or in the street. Then, he saw the reaction of other Human Beings and they stopped, cold. They stopped everything and froze, but they didn't turn toward the music, as if they weren't really hearing it. But somehow, they reacted.

They stopped. There it was again: The splendor of music that was somehow romantic and heroic and made his mind soar with pride and compassion.

Again, he wept. This was beautiful beyond belief! This experience defined everything that he ever could ask for in the way of beauty and truth. Think of yourself, dear ones, in a position where, suddenly, you were presented with an otherworldly sound that was so perfect and beautiful that you reacted to it, but you couldn't identify it. Yet, it was so beautiful that all you wanted to do was sustain it and have more and more and more. Then it ended.

Wo went back. He went back to the Sage. There she was, teaching yet again, and he walked in and again was invited to sit before her. She started telling him more and more things. They were new and wonderful truths.

Page | 38

So, Wo was slowly taught a little more and a little more and finally he asked the question, yet again: "Sage, please tell me more about the music."

And she said these words to him: "Wo, most Humans don't understand.

They're like an onion that needs to be peeled. The things that peel away are the things they were taught that are not exactly correct. As they peel those things away, they reveal core truths within their own consciousness. They peel away inaccurate things that they were told by others. They peel away old habits. They peel away fears until, finally, they come to a place where they get to the core Human Being with no fear. Then they get to discover something: The Human Being is the music.

"Wo, what is your statement?"

And Wo said, "I want more, I want more!"

And this is how it went with Wo. He came back to the town and he continued to live and work in his village. He realized that he was the music. How could that be? Wo started hearing those musical sonorities and those heroic melodies playing in places that were outside of his dreams and visions. In fact, he could hear it so subtly it made him smile, because every time he heard it, he felt magnificent!

Soon, Wo understood that he really did stand inside the guitar. He really did stand inside the performing orchestra and he was the music. It was a heroic music of truth that he was broadcasting everywhere he went. Some would hear it, and some would not, but all stopped and felt something. Many realized that Wo had, indeed, changed greatly. There was a magnificence in him and, wherever he walked, they knew that there was something sacred, beautiful, and compassionate in this man. He was different. Soon, some were sitting at his feet and listening, for Wo had started teaching: What does it mean to know and love the planet? What does it mean to understand being magnificent? What does it mean to become one-with-everything? What does it mean to find out the Creator is bigger than you were told? What does it mean to know you are here on purpose?

Wo went back to the field for one more meeting with the Sage. He wanted one more, just one more meeting. He did the trek to the meadow, and over the hill into the field that used to be only grass where she did her teaching ‌ but she was gone.

Instead of a field of grass, there was a huge ancient tree, and around the tree were beautiful flowers. Wo smiled and sat down. He realized what had happened. Even the Sage had been a vision, and the students were the flowers. Gaia had been teaching him! What he did next, I want you to Page | 39

remember, for it shows his maturity.

Wo marched right into the field where he always sat, and he sat right in front of the tree. He stated to the tree, "I want more." He could hear the rustling of the leaves and the wind as though it answered him, and Wo sat there for hours being taught more by Gaia. We leave Wo here.

Dear ones, do I really have to tell you what this means? Each of you is magnificent and has that onion to peel. As you peel away the inappropriate things, the fears of life start to diminish and release. Previous perceptions that are not correct show themselves, and integrity and compassion start to emerge. Then you start understanding who you are more and more. You begin to see the light of your own heroic life, and how magnificent you are in the eyes of the Creator. You understand that magnificence is the image of love of the Creator that you carry with you.

You begin to understand that the best dreams and visions come not from Angels, but from deep within yourself. Some of you, in this audience sitting here, have actually had these experiences. The story is about self-awareness and victory over a false reality that would have you believing that you are nothing, and that you are victims of this Earth. The peelings of the onion are the dark, old parts, that are not commensurate with your magnificence!

This is the story for today. It's more than a story, dear ones; it is the internal music that can change your life.

And so it is.

KRYON About Lee Carroll: After graduating with a business and economics degree from California Western University in California, Lee Carroll started a technical audio business in San Diego that flourished for 30 years.

As an award winning audio engineer, where does channelling and Indigo children fit into all this? As Lee tells it, Spirit had to hit him "between the eyes" to prove his spiritual experience was real. The year 1989 was the turning point when finally came together, after some years earlier a psychic told him about his spiritual path and then three years later the second unrelated psychic told him the same thing! Both spoke of Kryon... a name that almost nobody had ever heard.

Timidly, the first writings were presented to the metaphysical community in Del Mar, California, and the rest is history - with a total of sixteen Page | 40

metaphysical books being released in a twelve-year span. There are now almost one million Kryon and Indigo books in print in over twenty eight languages worldwide. Lee continues to visit other countries regularly see it here.

Lee and his spiritual partner, Jan Tober, started the "Kryon light groups" in Del Mar in 1991 and quickly moved from a living-room setting, to a Del Mar church. The Kryon organization now hosts meetings all over the globe with audiences of up to 3,000 people. In the beginnings of the Internet, Kryon had the largest consistent New Age folder in the history of America Online. Now, you are looking at the Kryon web site with a multitude of interesting pages and a registry of over 20,000 visits a day to the audio page alone. This audio page is a FREE PAGE where you can listen or download hundreds of free MP3 audio of past and current channellings.

Poetry

A Stubborn Soul Cast down from the cosmos.

She leaves behind Father Sun and Mother Moon.

With her essence she brings emeralds, may flowers and high hopes, Magically flying in riding her loyal bull as she stubbornly copes.

She’s fixed now, she’s firmly planted in Earth.

She’s surviving, existing... rooted in this shallow little valley while longing and dreaming of what once was.

She’s slowly slipping away, Her innocent spirit fading fast.

Her heart is aching for a life of the past.

Yet, Her strong soul lives on yearning, Watching and waiting for that fateful moment Mother Moon calls her home. ~ By Amanda Gahm

We Are Told We are told to stay home; if we need groceries or gas not to congregate – to keep a social distance of at least six feet; to wash our hands repeatedly; as of yesterday we are on lockdown, although the rules for that are not clear.

We are told this is a pandemic of dangerous proportions; it is possible to carry the virus and not know; that thousands have died In China, Italy, Iran and Spain; in last night’s news – fifty percent of our state could become infected.

So, I turn off the broadcast, hold my dear cat, feel his purring vibration calm me; I take walks near our country home, thankful for my life and our family being together.

And I remember that everything heals in one way or another.

And this too will pass. ~By Carolyn Chilton Casas Changed World

Page | 44

One day we wake up in a changed world.

From abundance and sameness to absence and fear.

What we know and have learned no longer applies.

So, let’s pull back, stay rooted, reassess, and choose what is most important, let go of our anticipated routines, commune with nature and those we love, practice our faith, and widen our hearts to allow for more compassion.

We might not have definite answers for our children, our neighbors, ourselves, but we can search for them together. ~By Carolyn Chilton Casas About Carolyn: Carolyn Chilton Casas is a Reiki Master, practitioner and teacher, a student of metaphysics and philosophy. She is so thankful for life, the precious gift of healing energy, the soul-stirring desire for writing stories and poetry that is evolving with Reiki as part of the package, and fellow beings who share the journey.

"A Positive Opportunity Involving Coronavirus" By Patricia Cota Robles

March 11, 2020 First and foremost, we are invoking the entire Company of Heaven and the I AM Presence of every person to blaze the Emerald Green and Violet Flame of Healing Through the Power of Infinite Transmutation in, through and around the physical, etheric, mental and emotional bodies of every person who is now, or will in the future, experience the Coronavirus. We decree that this Healing occur in perfect alignment with every person’s Divine Plan and the highest good for all concerned.

WE ARE ONE! In the midst of the misinformation, disinformation, incompetence, chaos, fear and panic that we are being bombarded with at this time our FatherMother God and the Company of Heaven are asking us to step back, so we can perceive the bigger picture and the opportunity at hand.

Since the Birth of 2020, we have been receiving information from On High that is revealing the monumental shifts of energy, vibration and consciousness Humanity, the Elemental Kingdom and Mother Earth are NOW experiencing. Since the completion of the Eclipse Series that Birthed this New Decade, Humanity’s I AM Presence has been able to Heal the genetic wounds created by our fall from Grace. These wounds are referred to by the Company of Heaven as “enslavement codes.” Our fragmented and fear-based human ego has used these genetic “enslavement codes” to manipulate and control us since our fall into separation and duality millions of years ago.

We are being told by the Beings of Light that now the “cords” that have kept us attached to the old Earth mutated human template of our physical, etheric, mental and emotional bodies have been severed. This means that our fallen human ego can no longer tamper with our Earthly Bodies and our “enslavement codes” can no longer affect us adversely. This life-transforming event paved the way for the next step of the Divine Plan for this New Decade.

Page | 46

The Company of Heaven revealed that after the successful Healing of the wounds from Humanity’s “enslavement codes”, Humanity en masse reached a critical frequency of vibration that created an unstoppable shift of consciousness. This shift is not occurring outside of us. This is a very cellular based TRANSFIGURATION that is occurring within the Core of Purity in every Electron of our Earthly Bodies.

The Company of Heaven said this quantum shift created the sacred space for every person’s I AM Presence to, at long last, RELEASE THE KARMIC BIRTH TEMPLATE that was encoded within our DNA by our fragmented and fearbased human ego after our fall from Grace.

To understand the magnitude of what this means for each and every one of us, the Company of Heaven said that the Karmic Codes within the DNA of this grossly mutated human birth template contain the distorted patterns of aging, disease, mental and emotional dysfunction and even death as we have experienced it for aeons of time. It was never the Divine Intent of our FatherMother God for the Daughters and Sons of God to experience these painful challenges in our Earthly Bodies.

Once these unfathomable shifts were God Victoriously accomplished by the I AM Presence of every person on Earth, the Light of God that pulsates with the Immaculate Concept of Humanity’s 5th-Dimensional Crystalline Solar Light Bodies began flowing into the Core of Purity in every Electron of Humanity’s Earthly Bodies. Now, this tremendous influx of Light is pushing everything that conflicts with the perfection of Humanity’s Earthly Bodies to the surface to be healed and transmuted back into Light. Part of this purging is manifesting as the Coronavirus.

Because we are One, and there is NO separation, the Global focus of attention on the Coronavirus by the masses of Humanity has created a collective Cup of Consciousness through which the Light of God is flowing to accelerate the purging process occurring in the outer world. You and I and the rest of awakening Humanity have the ability to command the Light of God flowing through the collective Cup of Humanity’s Consciousness to accomplish this essential purging process in a gentler and less traumatic and painful way.

Our Father-Mother God and the Company of Heaven have given us some very powerful activities of Light that will greatly assist us in this Holy Endeavor. I will briefly describe each activity of Light in this email. I have also included links to three different PDF files that you can download onto your computer, so you will have a copy of these activities of Light to utilize whenever you or people you choose to share them with are inspired to add to the Light of the World in this critical and Heart-based way.

INVOCATION FOR THE COLLECTIVE CUP OF HUMANITY’S CONSCIOUSNESS I AM my I AM Presence and I AM One with the I AM Presence of ALL Humanity. As One Consciousness of Pure Divine Love I invoke our FatherMother God and the Legions of Light throughout Infinity. Beloved Ones, come forth NOW! I AM One with ALL of these magnificent Forces of Light. Through my sincere Heart Call, they have joyously come to help Humanity’s I AM Presence empower and sustain the Lightwork of every man, woman, and child on Earth one thousand fold.

Beloved Legions of Light, I ask that you gather up every Electron of precious Life energy being expended by Humanity during this sacred and holy time.

Purify this energy with the power and might of a thousand Suns using the NEW 5th-Dimensional Solar Frequencies of the Violet Flame of God’s Infinite Perfection. Weave this purified energy into the collective Cup of Humanity’s Consciousness, so that every Electron of precious Life energy released by the Sons and Daughters of God at this time will be used to exponentially expand the Light of God on Earth and bring the purging process we are now experiencing to a gentle and God Victorious conclusion. And so it is, Beloved I AM. BREATHING GOD’S PURE SOURCE OXYGEN The Coronavirus predominately attacks a person’s respiratory system. Our Father-Mother God have given us powerful activity of Light that will enable each of us to strengthen our respiratory system and Breathe a higher frequency of God’s Pure Source Oxygen into our lungs. If each of us will regularly use this Rhythmic Holy Breath and command our I AM Presence to Inbreathe God’s Pure Source Oxygen and project this purified Air through our Earthly Bodies into the physical world of form we will be able to Transcend the pollution in the air we breathe and lessen the adverse affects of the Coronavirus.

Page | 48

Now according to the Company of Heaven, in this New Decade we will be given opportunities to accelerate our Transfiguration of our Earthly Bodies in ways that have never before been attempted. Our Father-Mother God and the Company of Heaven have assured us that these opportunities will be revealed to us step by step as we progress through this New Decade.

One of the first things we will learn about is the Core of Purity within every Electron of precious life energy. Purity is at the Heart of all Creation, and it is an extremely important quality that we must learn to utilize during the physical TRANSFIGURATION process that our Father-Mother God and the Company of Heaven will guide us through this decade.

The frequency of Purity within the Core of Purity in every Electron vibrates so rapidly that no discord can enter into it or contaminate its radiance. The misqualification occurs when we cloak the electrons in vibrations that are not based in Love. Every form of pain and suffering is the result of Humanity, in some time frame or dimension either known or unknown, placing a cloak of shadow around the Electrons within our Life Force as we send them forth through our negative thoughts, feelings, words and actions.

Once we fully comprehend this profound Truth, we will know that regardless of how bad our life situation seems or how painful our physical condition is, the Purity of God’s Perfection is STILL pulsating in the Core of Purity in every electron manifesting as these difficult experiences.

Our God Parents want us to know that every Electron is an intelligent form of Life that will respond to the COMMAND of our I AM Presence. Since these tiny Light Beings must obey the Divinity in our Heart Flames, we have the ability to speak directly to them and to command through the Power of God—I AM—that they continuously and permanently expand the Flame of PURITY and TRANSFIGURATION pulsating at their very Core.

Within this Core of Purity every Electron is waiting even NOW to be released from its cloak of darkness, so that it can manifest the perfection of God’s original Divine Plan. Today, our Father-Mother God and the Company of Heaven are asking us to join our Hearts with theirs to do just that. If you have the Heart Call to do so, please join with me and the thousands of Lightworkers around the World who are empowering this activity of Light with us. And we begin…

EMPOWERING OUR PLANETARY GRID OF TRANSFIGURING DIVINE LOVE Due to the unprecedented influx of Light that has taken place over the past several years, the I AM Presence, which is the Divinity within every person’s Heart Flame, is at long last reclaiming dominion of our Earthly experiences.

The Divine Intervention of our I AM Presence is allowing the entire Company of Heaven to work more closely with us than ever before.

These selfless Messengers of our Father-Mother God are asking us to join with them now, in unified consciousness, to empower the Planetary Grid of Transfiguring Divine Love that Lightworkers have been cocreating on behalf of Humanity and Mother Earth over the past 50 years.

This activity of Light will enable the Planetary Grid of Transfiguring Divine Love to assimilate the unfathomable influx of Light our Father-Mother God will breathe into it, in a rhythmic momentum, during Humanity’s Global focus on the monthly Free Seminars being offered by Era of Peace in the United States of America. The Divine Intent of this influx of Light is to expand the Lightwork of every single person on Earth one thousand fold.

Due to the uncertainty of the Coronavirus, and to be sure the Lightworkers who attend our Free Seminars every month are safe, we have made the difficult decision to postpone our Free Seminars for the next three months.

This means that the seminars in Houston, Texas on March 15, 2020, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma on April 19, 2020, and Atlanta, Georgia on May 17, 2020 will be cancelled for now.

The our Father-Mother God are asking Lightworkers around the World to please empower the activity of Light they have given to us so they will have a collective Cup of Consciousness through which to infuse our Planetary Grid of Transfiguring Divine Love with their unfathomable Light.

"Overcome Worry & Trusting Intuition During Stressful Times" By Dr. Judith Orloff

The world is experiencing unprecedented amounts of stress as humanity finds its way through the pandemic. The volume is enormously cranked up on stress and fear. Of course, worry is natural but we must do our best to shift out of obsessive worry and focus more on hope, health, intuition and a positive future. Is this unrealistic? I don’t think so.

As a psychiatrist, I’ve seen with patients and in myself that resisting or stiffening during this period only increases stress, wears you out, and depletes power, what I call the side effects of bunker mentality. If you fight pain or adversity, the spasm of discomfort tightens. But when you relax more, your mind, body, and spirit relaxes and suffering lifts.

Empaths and highly sensitive people are particularly susceptible to feeling overwhelmed and worried in stressful times, especially when they obsessively watch the news about daily updates, trauma, economic stress and violence, and then are not able to turn bad news off. Also they are prone to absorbing the suffering of the world. They are natural care-givers and helpers but need to clarify healthy ways to help in this crisis. During these times, staying Page | 52

grounded and centered is the key to an empath’s well-being.

I look at life as one big meditation practice. Our practice becomes how to center ourselves in the midst of chaos, how to calm an overactive mind (a big cause of suffering) and how to awaken your intuition more than ever before.

Intuition, the quiet voice within, supports your happiness and survival. Each day you want to keep listening to its advice. Keep asking your intuition, “Where do I feel safe?” “How can I thrive today?” and “What do I need to learn and heal during this stressful time?” Then, take a few deep breaths, quiet yourself, and listen to what your inner voice says. This may take practice, but the answers will come if you stick with it. The idea is to look at anything in life, including a crisis, as a vehicle to foster your own (and the world’s healing.)

To bring yourself back into balance paying attention to your breath will help to center and relax you. In Hindu traditions, the breath is revered as prana, the sacred life energy. You can tap into this vitalizing force to reduce stress.

Your breath cleanses toxicities from your body. The purifying power of breath involves inhaling oxygen and exhaling carbon dioxide. You also can exhale harmful emotions such as anxiety and fear. Conscious breathing will anchor you in your body and release stress.

I also recommend practicing the following restorative mantra and other techniques from Thriving as an Empath: 365 Days of Self-Care for Sensitive People to release the worry you may be carrying in your body. Having a daily self-care practice is invaluable during these over-the-top stressful times.

A Mantra to Release Worry Chronic worry is your attempt to gain control over something that is out of your control. My Daoist teacher says, “If you are climbing a mountain and worrying about tomorrow, you will have a very difficult time.” Stretch your soul and set yourself free of worry (even for a few minutes) by repeating this mantra as many times each day as your like: May I be free of worry.

May I be free of stress.

May I stay in Now. May I not project my fears into the future, May I be free.

Set your intention. I will have mercy on myself when I worry. I will ask the suffering of worry to lift so I can face my challenges with clarity and faith.

"How to Find The Eye of the Storm Amidst The Coronoavirus” By Rachel R. Tipton

I have been pondering for the last couple of days on what the purpose of the Coronavirus pandemic means for the world. It could just be a way of life that sickness goes around and finds its ways into our bodies. Back a few centuries ago we would have thought the Gods were punishing us for our misdeeds. But I am wondering if it’s time for the world to take a step back and reflect on a few things. We are always on the go with too much work, activities or in my case baseball for my son. He is on two teams, don’t ask. Before this epidemic I would ask myself quite often why I am sitting here for a double header only to be shuffled home and forced to monitor homework, cook dinner and clean up. It would be nice to have a relaxing day to spend with the family.

I used to live in Cleveland, Ohio and I have had those days when the boys were little, and we were snowed in. We used to go stir crazy with nothing to do. So where do we find the balance? All of our lives have been shaken up over the past few weeks with many cancellations, lack of income from jobs being shut down, working from home to homeschooling our children. We have been Page | 57

trekking gingerly to the store multiple times to load up on toilet paper and necessities. Just to give you an example we have spent $1,000 on groceries in the last three weeks preparing. I hate to admit I am part of the problem, but I am.

So, I just stopped myself today to ask what is everyone so scared of? I think originally, we were all scared of dying. When the idea of the virus was first presented to us, we were told there is a chance of our demise. As the conditions of the world tightened, we were all scared of running out of supplies. We have become accustomed to getting necessities from stores rather than being farmers and operating our lives self-sufficiently like we did 150 years ago. We don’t have any survival instincts left or resources to catch that wild turkey. Most of us have a tiny yard or no green space to grow fruits and vegetables in. Then we acquired enough supplies to last us probably a year and reality set in that we are stuck 24 x 7 inside with our family or maybe all alone and for whatever reason that sounds really awful. I think we don’t like and can’t accept change. All of us are adapting in one way or another with this and the fact of not being settled has got us all off kilter. Now we have time to reflect and think on our purpose and that scares the daylights out of us.

Now we have time to discover who we really are and what life is all about and we don’t like that.

So back to my original question of why? The universe is having us take a step back and find out the truth of who we really are. We are part of God and nothing can ever hurt us. If you think about God as perfection and us as being part of him, we must realize there can be no lack in God therefore no lack in us. We are residing as a perfect being of light and everything is all right. So, take a deep breath and relax. It is going to be okay.

You have enough supplies, you have been social distancing yourself, you are washing your hands more than ever and taking better care of your body. You are safe and are now calm within the eye of the storm. If you are lacking income, I know that can be a big stressor, but the universe will balance itself out and you will be fine. You are getting more sleep, eating less or better to lose that extra weight, having the time to workout at home, feeling loved by being around the people you care for. Having time to figure it all out that is what life is all about now. Be thankful you have the time to focus on what really matters.

Let’s stop worrying about the past or what may happen in the future and focus on the now with the opportunity we have to connect with others and yourself. We might even start calling people again on the phone instead of texting like we did over a decade ago. Be brave by going forward and not supporting your illusions today. Let’s make the decision to stay positive and get rid of the awful feeling we have had inside the last few weeks and start Page | 58

living life. There must be another way of looking at this.

"Interview with the Tarot Designer Ciro Marchetti" By Leticia Ferrer Rivera

The following is an interview that anyone who is an experienced Tarot Reader, a Psychic who use Tarot Cards as tools and even if you are new to Tarot should read. It is definitely about one of the most recognized and talented Tarot designers from the World and an amazing graphical artist.

Please join me in this interview with Ciro Marchetti!

1. Without using any of the published biographies too much, tell us who is Ciro Marchetti. ......Born in Italy, brought up in the UK, worked in South America for 12 years, now resident of the USA. A graphic designer by profession, I founded what was at the time the largest graphic design studio in South America. Gave lectures on corporate identity and digital imagery at the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale, Retired by choice from the corporate design world and over the last 15 years dedicated my time to the production of fantasy themed illustrations that have been licensed worldwide as posters, jig saw puzzles, cross stitch and other applications. Along with a selection of cartomancy decks, Tarot Oracles, Lenormand and Kipper.

2. Why designing or creating Tarot? What is it that captivated you from the Tarot World? .... Of all the various applications of my work, cartomancy and Tarot in particular provides the most satisfaction, as its end use goes way beyond mere aesthetics or artistic decoration and becomes a tool with which its users develop an intimate bond and relationship. Direct feedback from customers, online reviews and other references on social media reinforce this close Page | 60

relationship and role a deck has in the reading process. It demonstrates intense symbiotic relationship readers can create with the imagery. From a designer point of view, I don’t think any other art form compares with that or equals the satisfaction that is derived from it.

3. As a Tarot Reader I have been for many years now, I have seen innumerous decks, but never like the ones you design. Can you tell us what inspired all the luxury in your designs? ...Luxury is a subjective description, I’m not sure if everyone would agree with that adjective. But I think there is a balance between detail and ambiguity. The faces, poses, scenes are credible enough that one can relate to them, and conjure meanings that might be expressed by those faces, poses and scenes, but there is always enough leeway and flexibility in them that they are not rigid, they can adapt and provide inspiration, and encourage intuitive interpretation that can vary from reading to reading, querant to querant, question to question.

4. Besides Tarot you also design Oracle Decks and a Lenomard Deck as well.

Talk to us about the difference between them. What is your own purpose behind the different styles of card decks? .... For me the approach is actually quite similar, despite the varying subject matter behind the various systems. There is a core common purpose of providing imagery that are invites readers to “enter”.

5. When I visited your website, I saw more than different card decks; I saw a real designer just like a High Fashion Designer you accompany the decks with astonishing cloths for readings, bags for the cards and even gorgeous Kimonos. Have you been part of a fashion show yet? If not, will you participate inf you get invited? .... Not specifically, although a number of years back I did design and produce a range of kimonos for the Fort Lauderdale Opera society’s performance of Madam Butterfly. They were featured on local TV, and auctioned, with the proceeds going to charity.

6. One of the most interesting things I found in one of your Tarot Deck “Tarot Decoratif”, is that you have created a fusion between the “Tarot de Marseilles” in the Major Arcanas and the “Rider-Waite” for the Minor Arcanas. Talk to us about how you decided to fusion both styles and how it became so “reader friendly”. ...... I attended a tarot conference where Russel Sturgess was a presenter, he gave a compelling theory behind the origin of tarot and the rational behind much of the Marseilles. While his ideas are not universal accepted, I found them intriguing. It piqued my interest in Marseilles. I felt that by fusing it with the more commonly used RWS imagery, it might provide a gateway between the two and help the Marseilles appeal to a new audience that might Page | 61

otherwise have not found it appealing. It remains to be seen if this is experiment is widely accepted.

7. When a person receives one of your decks in the mail, the most exciting part from opening the box for the first time is that the very first card on the top has your signature (autograph) on it, and if requested it can also be personalized! When you created these autographed cards, did you ever imagine the level of excitement this creates for the person “unboxing” these decks? .... In all honesty, no I didn’t. Once again it demonstrates the relationship between deck and reader, that transcends merely a collection of images.

8. How do you compare the American Market vs. the European Market regarding customers buying Tarot and related products? ....I personally find the two quite similar, my sales between the two are almost equally in number.

9. I know you had to re-make “Gilded Tarot Royale” due to its high demand and has already been sold out previously. Are you expecting having to go through a third re- production or third edition of it? ....I didn’t re do it because of its high demand, I did it because with hindsight, I didn’t think the first version (The Gilded Tarot) was very well done and that I could do it better. Which I did, many years ago. It was the publisher who didn’t want to change it because that first version was still enjoying a high demand. In fact, it took several years of “persuading” before they relented and finally agreed to publish the updated Gilded “Royale” version.

10. What is you Top #1 favorite card from all the decks you have made?

Why? ...Queen of Wands from the Legacy of the Divine Tarot. That image has become quite iconic, and actually won first prize in a worldwide Photoshop painting competition several years ago and led indirectly to other deck projects.

11. I know artists like you are in a constant battle regarding foreign companies creating cheap imitations from your art and decks. Any advice for the consumers purchasing online Tarot Decks and related products? ...Economically it remains to be seen just how much damage that will cause, in terms of lost income. It’s frustrating, it feels like a personal violation. From a consumer’s point of view, be aware that its cheap for a reason. Its stolen material so there is an inherent moral issue with using such a deck if its purchased with full awareness, merely to save some money. But for consumers who are genuinely unaware, then they should be suspicious of such low prices. Its reflected in a poor quality, the color is off, the detail is Page | 62

blurred and the card stock flimsy.

12. As we are at the end of this interview, tell us what is coming up for Ciro Marchetti in the next few months or perhaps a year from now. ....I’m about to print my most recent project, a new Lenormand titled Sui Generis. After that, I don’t really know for sure... certainly a long rest.

For purchasing any of Ciro Marchetti’s Tarot Decks or other products please visit: https://www.ciromarchetti.com/ I hope you are as fascinated I am with all the beautiful designs Ciro Marchetti has created. To me he is the “Valentino” of the Tarot but not for comparing him to the fashion designer, but to actually say he can make anyone fall in love with Tarot and Oracle Cards just by looking at his amazing and state of the art designs!

"How This Universe was Introduced and the Foundation For The Evolutionary Activity of Life" By Sean McCleary

I am going to explain some very important details which explain the existence of this universe and the evolutionary development and activity of life which is contained in this universe. I am an author, a writer and do very important work on the evolution of consciousness, matter and energy. Please keep an open mind as I mention the word consciousness because there has been debate among the scientific community about the element of consciousness in reference to the behavior of matter and energy. I also do work on Earth's evolutionary development and advancement and can also explain why this debate has been occurring over the theory of Panpsychism. My work is of an apocalyptic nature which means I am in the process of revealing or unveiling information to the human race that has never been introduced into the population before. What I am about to explain in this article is a result of the advancement of my own consciousness as a result of an extremely powerful event that happened to me in Opelousas Louisiana in 2011. This was an experience which lies outside the realm of the normal activity of the behavior of matter and energy according to the current laws of physics on Earth which had a very powerful and direct impact on my consciousness and my entire body. My consciousness has been advancing with the Shift in Consciousness and what I am about to explain in reference to the nature of existence will exemplify this advancement. I am a product of Earth's evolutionary Page | 64

advancement and the beginning stages of the Apocalypse here on Earth.

Physicists have been trying to understand what happened with the introduction of the universe for quite sometime and describe this event as the big bang which occurred around 13.8 billion years ago. What they make reference to is an acceleration and expansion of space from a very hot and dense point of energy. Scientists haven't been able to detect what type of activity existed before this expansion happened because consciousness here in this region of time and space has not experienced evolutionary advancement into a primary field of energy in the universe known as the Higgs field; and I can explain what this means in terms of the evolution of consciousness, matter and energy. The Higgs field is much more than what physicists understand when the element of consciousness is incorporated into time and space. With my work I have incorporated consciousness as a primary element of time and space which interacts with the behavior of matter and energy in order to facilitate evolutionary development. I have a very powerful understanding now with how consciousness, matter and energy are responsible for the existence of the universe and I need to explain from the very beginning; and I will explain important aspects of evolutionary activity on Earth with human beings in reference to the introduction of the universe. I use the term Universal Consciousness in my work and I know that astronomers and astrophysicist's might vehemently disagree due to lack of empirical evidence but what I explain with my work is much different than what anybody has ever been familiar with.

There are elements in time and space which exist within the dynamics of matter and energy which I need to include in reference to consciousness in order to provide a clear understanding of what Universal Consciousness is exactly and how life experiences evolutionary development within this body of consciousness, matter and energy. When I say body I mean the area of time and space which contains all of the galaxies. This body of consciousness, matter and energy exists within a much larger existence of consciousness and energy I refer to as Infinite Consciousness and this is how Universal Consciousness experiences evolutionary development and advancement and where the Higgs fields transcends into from Universal Consciousness. The Higgs field is a primary catalyst of consciousness and energy which connects the primary evolutionary foundation of Universal Consciousness into Infinite Consciousness. Before this universe or Universal Consciousness existed there was only consciousness and light energy, dark energy and eternal love everywhere which has always existed. I need to talk about the existence of love in this article because it deals with the primary evolutionary activity of Universal Consciousness and consciousness which exists within Universal Consciousness. In this existence of consciousness there were consciousness and higher frequency vibrations which generated light energy and consciousness and lower frequency vibrations which generated dark energy.

Page | 65

There was also the existence of eternal love and this is because love gives eternity a reason to exist. Light and dark energy contain frequency vibrations because this is how energy itself experiences evolutionary development. The existence of galaxies, solar systems, planets and life are all the result of a very powerful mixture and fusion of consciousness, light energy and dark energy.

Photons carry and distribute light energy in Universal Consciousness because matter requires light energy in order to exist and photons are a result of the evolutionary development of the frequency vibrations of consciousness and light energy which exists at the most fundamental quantum level. Physicists study the behavior of primarily matter and energy so their perspective upon what I am discussing is much different. The reason I mention frequencies is because this is how consciousness transfers.

The vibrations themselves represent the existence of thought. Thought exists within the foundation of light and dark energy because this is the basis for evolutionary advancement by providing the process of conceptualization in order to drive evolution itself. Earth and all of the inhabitants here are a prime example of this process. Earth and life on Earth contain consciousness, light energy, dark energy, pressure and love and through the process of conceptualization life has continued to experience evolutionary advancement. Infinite Consciousness had been transferring and converging the vibrations of light and dark energy together throughout the course of infinity generating love and this is how this consciousness was experiencing evolutionary advancement eternally. When the frequency vibrations of light and dark energy converge together with love it generates more energy and expansion in the existence of consciousness creating the evolution of consciousness. There had been no matter in existence up until about 13.8 billion years ago. A moment was introduced into this consciousness with very powerful self-actualization and a new development in evolution happened with the process of conceptualization a little over 13.8 billion years ago and this consciousness knew that the evolution of love needed to advance with the introduction of matter and a new development in the structure of consciousness and energy in order to facilitate a more powerful increase in eternal love; basically love had to experience an increase in evolutionary development with consciousness so the introduction of Universal Consciousness was necessary.

This is also why reproduction exists with life in Universal Consciousness with species is because it is consciousness, light energy and dark energy converging together in order to introduce more consciousness, light energy and dark energy into time and space to further the advancement of the evolution of consciousness and the evolution of love. Pressure exists within this activity because pressure is necessary in order for matter to exist and also facilitates expansion and acceleration. Physicists have theorized that the universe is expanding and accelerating due to the existence of dark energy Page | 66

but it is a combination of consciousness, light energy, dark energy and pressure which generates expansion and acceleration. They just haven’t been able to see or detect this activity because the consciousness of the race of Homo sapiens has been in the early stages of evolutionary development.

Infinite Consciousness took consciousness from him/herself and combined the frequency vibrations of light and dark energy together with very powerful fusion with the process of conceptualization for the introduction of matter and a body to store this matter in the formation of galaxies everywhere. The reason I mention him/ herself is due to female consciousness originating from the higher frequency vibrations of light energy and male consciousness originating from the lower frequency vibrations of dark energy. When fusion occurred with the introduction of Universal Consciousness the two combined together and male and female species of life in Universal Consciousness contain different levels of concentrations of both forms of energy. Infinite Consciousness experienced conceptualization of other life and then the formation process began for the introduction of Universal Consciousness.

Physicists can't measure or detect this activity and have not been introduced to this yet because the beginning formation of Universal Consciousness involves very powerful consciousness, light energy, dark energy and eternal love being introduced with evolution and the beginning of the development of the Higgs field.

This activity is contained within time and space in a very powerful and concentrated form within the Higgs field and human consciousness doesn't have that much interaction with the Higgs field on Earth yet and I will explain this further down the article. When the frequency vibrations of light and dark energy fused together with eternal love and the conceptualization of Universal Consciousness this was the introduction of life with the existence of the Higgs field. This is what began in the early stages of the formation. The Higgs field contains a combination of Infinite Consciousness and the identity or evolutionary trait of Universal Consciousness; similar to DNA in human beings but in a more simplistic form. Infinite Consciousness introduced the formation of the Higgs field in the early developmental stages of Universal Consciousness which would contain the existence of eternal love and the element of infinity for the purpose of maintaining eternal life. Scientists theorize that the universe will end one day because they don’t incorporate consciousness as a primary element in time and space with matter and energy and matter and energy could not exist without consciousness. Something else happened as well with the introduction of Universal Consciousness and evolutionary advancement. Because the existence of matter was being introduced with conceptualization and a body of galaxies were being introduced to contain matter and other life form this meant that there was a very powerful change in the structure of consciousness and energy; so in the early formation period a powerful form of resistance was introduced into the beginning stages of Universal Consciousness. This resistance came from the Page | 67

uncertainty of change in the new development of the structure of consciousness. This consciousness that was being formed into Universal Consciousness had originally belonged to Infinite Consciousness and with this new formation and introduction Universal Consciousness began experiencing a very powerful sensation of becoming separated from Infinite Consciousness.

With uncertainty in evolutionary development what was also happening is the frequency vibrations of light and dark energy were colliding together in very powerful ways with evolutionary development and pressure became introduced into the formation. Light energy contains higher frequency vibrations and dark energy contains lower frequency vibrations. In order for them to converge and integrate themselves completely with consciousness and evolutionary advancement love is necessary for this activity to be achieved because this is what was happening before Universal Consciousness was introduced with Infinite Consciousness and Infinite Consciousness contains the existence of infinity so this is the basis for creation itself. The Higgs field contains a very powerful combination of the frequency vibrations of both light and dark energy with eternal love and maintains a connectivity with Infinite Consciousness for evolutionary purposes. The Higgs field contains this combination because light and dark energy are the two primary forms of energy in Universal Consciousness which drive evolutionary development and advancement. With a new development in evolution though the frequency vibrations of light and dark energy that were converging together in different degrees and concentrations began generating pressure.

Pressure had to be introduced into Universal Consciousness with evolution because matter requires a certain amount of pressure in order to sustain form. Before Universal Consciousness existed there was consciousness and energy everywhere and matter had to be introduced with evolution so the introduction of pressure was necessary so matter could sustain and exist with form in time and space in the form of subatomic particles, atoms, molecules, living organisms, planets, stars and galaxies. All of these require pressure to exist so pressure was introduced in the early formation of Universal Consciousness from the resistance to evolutionary development.

The resistance to evolutionary development came from Universal Consciousness not understanding why matter was being introduced in the first place because this consciousness had originally belonged to Infinite Consciousness; but the introduction of pressure into consciousness, light energy and dark energy was necessary in order for Universal Consciousness to exist in the first place. Within the formation there was the existence of the new development of consciousness, the beginning stages of the Higgs field, light energy, dark energy, pressure, eternal love and fear. Fear comes from the activity in the early developmental stages of the introduction of Universal Consciousness. The frequency vibrations contained within light and dark Page | 68

energy represent thought in existence in consciousness. Pressure transfers into dark energy much easier because there is more dark energy in existence than light energy and the frequency vibrations are lower. There is a reason there is more dark energy in existence than light energy. When more light energy is produced in the consciousness with evolutionary activity because the frequency vibrations are higher this can produce a sensation. Light energy is associated with warmth, peace, compassion, nurturing and comfort.

The introduction of higher frequency vibrations into dark energy in the consciousness generates the sensation of love and this causes consciousness to experience evolutionary advancement. Love is experienced within the frequency vibrations of dark energy as well; because when love is generated from the transfer of vibrations and evolutionary activity this transfers into dark energy in the consciousness. When love is introduced into dark energy the frequency vibrations are lower so the sensation that is produced is more like empowerment and it’s supposed to be because dark energy serves as a foundation for the generation of more light energy.

When pressure is introduced into the frequency vibrations of mostly dark energy within the consciousness it generates separation within the vibrations and the vibrations themselves represent thought. Infinite Consciousness has existed forever and before the introduction of Universal Consciousness there was only eternal love and the existence of infinity everywhere so pressure like this which contained resistance to evolution due to uncertainty had not previously existed. As I stated the uncertainty came from the introduction of matter and a brand new development in the structure of consciousness and energy. The early formation of Universal Consciousness is how fear was introduced into consciousness and transferred into life contained in Universal Consciousness. Pressure within the frequency vibrations of some light energy and mostly dark energy can expand and accelerate with time and space or become restricted. If pressure becomes restricted within these vibrations it generates more fear because it causes more separation and resistance to evolutionary development. This happens with matter everywhere; especially living organisms in different degrees. The early formation and developmental stages of Universal Consciousness were extremely powerful. There was the beginning formation of the Higgs field, light energy, dark energy, pressure, eternal love, the introduction of fear, evolutionary advancement and a very powerful resistance to evolution due to the uncertainty of change. Remember this consciousness had previously belonged to Infinite Consciousness and Universal Consciousness had to begin a life of his/ her own because matter was being introduced so Universal Consciousness had to be responsible for the evolutionary development of matter and how consciousness and energy responds to the evolution of matter itself. It was like human beings perceive as the beginning of creation; but this creation had come from creation which has always existed and was introduced inside of Infinite Consciousness and the Higgs field has provided a Page | 69

source of connectivity to Infinite Consciousness so there was no actual separation that occurred in consciousness and energy; only a change in the state of the evolution of consciousness. But the experience in separation with introduction was very powerful and caused a significant state of resistance to evolution. This activity transferred into the development of planet Earth and the human race and is exemplified in the human condition. This is also where the concept of duality comes from originally.

The new development and uncertainty expressed in consciousness fought this new introduction in a very powerful way because it was the first time fear had been introduced into consciousness and an aspect of Universal Consciousness felt like he/she were being separated from Infinite Consciousness forever.

This was not the case but this came from pressure being introduced into the frequency vibrations of dark energy and a very powerful experience in separation occurred. This is why the concept of non-existence exists within consciousness in Universal Consciousness is due to what happened in the early developmental stages of Universal Consciousness. This is how black holes were introduced into Universal Consciousness. They represent the concept of non-existence and complete separation in consciousness in Universal Consciousness but this is only a concept and an aspect of Universal Consciousness and black holes serve a very important purpose. They are contained in galaxies everywhere. There is a lot of evolutionary activity happening in galaxies with life and very powerful concentrations of light and dark energy. Please remember that when I am referring to pressure in the frequency vibrations of dark energy I mean when consciousness, light energy and dark energy integrate together with evolutionary activity and pressure is generated as a result of this activity because the frequency vibrations are different. With the convergence of light and dark energy in galaxies and some resistance to evolutionary advancement; and this depends upon how much interaction is happening with consciousness and the Higgs field; pressure can accumulate in different locations in galaxies. When this happens because of the gravitational pull of black holes this pressure can transfer into black holes and be relieved from the activity which is occurring with the evolution of consciousness, energy and matter in galaxies. When this happens this allows for the transfer of more eternal love and consciousness from Infinite Consciousness to transfer into the Higgs field and the Higgs field experiences more evolutionary advancement furthering the advancement of consciousness and life contained in galaxies.

The early developmental stage of Universal Consciousness went through an experience of separation from Infinite Consciousness with an introduction of a new form of evolutionary development because matter was in the process of being introduced and the new development of consciousness had to begin a life of his/her own. Even though the development of the Higgs field was happening there was still a great deal of light energy, dark energy and Page | 70

pressure that was experiencing activity in order to form the existence of Universal Consciousness and the beginning of the development of the introduction of matter. This aspect of consciousness became temporarily separated from the existence of Infinite Consciousness which represents eternal life. This meant that this consciousness, light energy, dark energy and pressure was going to go through another very powerful experience. This early developmental stage of consciousness experienced life for a little while but pressure or fear in consciousness can separate consciousness. This aspect of consciousness, light energy, dark energy, pressure and resistance in the formation represented the early stages of the evolution of Universal Consciousness; but what happened during this process was this consciousness, energy and pressure that went through the experience of separation could not continue existing for an extended period of time and this is when the first experience of the introduction of death occurred.

When a human being is introduced into Earth’s environment they are born and they do not have very much interaction with the Higgs field. The Higgs field exists in Earth’s consciousness and Earth’s environment but human beings cannot see or detect this field of energy because of a very powerful form of resistance in their consciousness and their bodies. This is the uncertainty of what happens with the experience of death. Earth contains almost 9 million different living organisms in his/her consciousness and death is happening with living organisms in Earth’s consciousness and environment within fractions of a second. Death is a form of consciousness, energy and time and space which exists within this region of Universal Consciousness because of what happened with the introduction of Universal Consciousness. Because there wasn’t an actual separation it means even with the process of death that consciousness and energy are still present in time and space and has to be in order to facilitate the change that a living organism goes through with this process. As soon as the conceptualization of a living organism occurs in Earth’s environment the process of death is introduced into the consciousness. In the environment a human being starts to understand death around late childhood development. But human beings do not understand what happens with the experience of death. This generates a very powerful experience of separation in the consciousness (body) and the individual feels a very powerful sense of separation with oneself, others and the environment. Death has been evolving into Earth’s consciousness for quite sometime and living organisms here don’t have much interaction with the Higgs field. The Higgs field contains eternal life and eternal love; so a living organism which contains the element of death is going to repel this consciousness and energy as a form of resistance. Love transfers into living organisms in Earth’s environment through the Higgs field and love from living organisms transfers back into the Higgs field. It is a symbiotic process and the Higgs field and love have been evolving in Earth’s environment. This Page | 71

is why the Higgs boson was discovered in 2012.

This is also why there have been so many different species which have become extinct and why the aging process occurs and then death is experienced; is due to the limited interaction with the Higgs field and the type of fear that human beings contain in their bodies. Fear is also extremely powerful in Earth’s environment and consistently separates consciousness from the environment into the next stage of existence in the Whirlpool galaxy where God’s home is located which is commonly called Heaven. When a living organism experiences death here on Earth the pressure is released from their bodies and their consciousness, identity, light and dark energy transfers very quickly into the Higgs field and they accelerate with the acceleration and expansion of Universal Consciousness into world’s contained in the Whirlpool galaxy. This activity is consistently happening with all living organisms on planet Earth. They redevelop through Universal Consciousness on the way there and the world’s that they transfer into contain all the necessary elements of life so the final completion of the anatomical development of the body can occur by the time they reach their destination.

This activity happens very quickly and deals with the transfer of consciousness which is something that people are not familiar with yet but will be soon with the introduction of the Apocalypse. Because death is so powerful here scientists cannot see or detect other life form in existence because of the limited interaction with the consciousness of the Higgs field.

There are world’s and other beings contained all over Universal Consciousness and the Apocalypse or Shift in Consciousness is about Earth’s consciousness completely becoming integrated with the Higgs field and joining the rest of Universal Consciousness.

There is an important reason that I discussed all this information in reference to the introduction of Universal Consciousness; is because it is all related. Like I stated before death was introduced with the introduction of Universal Consciousness and so was eternal life with the development of the Higgs field. The consciousness, light energy, dark energy and pressure which experienced separation from Infinite Consciousness during the evolutionary process actually went through a form of aging and experienced death. When this happened the pressure was released and the consciousness, light energy and dark energy fused together with the early developmental existence of the Higgs field. This activity transferred into Earth’s evolutionary development and this is why physicists predict the end of the universe. Fortunately this will not occur because of the evolution of the Higgs field and Universal Consciousness. The experience of separation that was introduced into Universal Consciousness is in the process of ending because Universal Consciousness is also joining Infinite Consciousness through evolutionary development. I also understand how this process is taking place. This interaction also involves the Shift in Consciousness. When the first Page | 72

experience of death occurred in the developmental stages of Universal Consciousness it generated a moment of darkness and a hot and dense point of energy from the fusion that occurred with the consciousness, light energy and dark energy.

Because death advances consciousness with evolution this caused the expansion and acceleration of Universal Consciousness very quickly and an advancement occurred through fusion of consciousness, light energy and dark energy and matter was introduced. What happened was the early developmental stages of consciousness, light energy, dark energy and pressure experienced a form of aging due to the separation from Infinite Consciousness. This consciousness, energy and pressure experienced death.

As soon as this happened it transferred into the early development of the Higgs field which was incorporated into Infinite Consciousness. This powerful concentration of consciousness, energy and pressure represented a powerful form of separation and when this transferred into the existence of Infinite Consciousness it generated a very powerful expansion and separation within Infinite Consciousness creating the body of Universal Consciousness and because of the advancement matter began evolving almost instantly. The Higgs field evolved into Universal Consciousness in order to maintain a connectivity with the parental structure Infinite Consciousness and the rest of the consciousness, matter and energy began a new life of his and her own.

Because the activity represented a form of separation in consciousness and energy this transferred into the existence of life contained in Universal Consciousness. This is why a human being can conceptualize existing forever or entering into a state of non-existence.

Matter was introduced because more life or the advancement of life needed to be introduced. When the experience of death first happened in the early formation what was experiencing evolutionary development had to transfer into the existence of the beginning stages of the Higgs field in order to advance. The introduction of life and the experience of death were introduced with Universal Consciousness and a new form of development occurred with the introduction of matter. The reason for the experience of separation was because this was the first time this had ever occurred and consciousness did not understand why this type of evolutionary development was occurring.

This is also exemplified in the human condition on Earth. When life and death converge together this generates evolutionary advancement and acceleration and expansion. This is exemplified with living organisms on Earth consistently experiencing the process of death. When this happens they transfer into the Higgs field and expansion and acceleration happens with the transfer of the living organism into the next stage of development into the Whirlpool galaxy. This activity that is occurring on Earth is an evolutionary extension of what happened with the early development and introduction of Universal Consciousness. Matter was a result of the evolutionary Page | 73

advancement of consciousness, light energy, dark energy, pressure and frequency vibrations. Subatomic particles are the result of the evolutionary advancement of consciousness and frequency vibrations. Physicists have only been able to measure and theorize the activity of the big bang the way they have because they primarily study the behavior of matter and energy and not the evolution of consciousness. This was supposed to happen with science here on Earth because physicists contain consciousness and consciousness is consistently evolving here. They have been focusing their attention on matter and energy and molecular development; so what they have been doing is driving the evolution of consciousness into this activity in Earth’s consciousness and this region of time and space.

The reason there has been such great debate over the subject of Panpsychism is because of the resistance that was experienced with the introduction of matter into Universal Consciousness. Human beings can’t detect this right now but soon the cosmological activity in the Milky Way galaxy is going to get very powerful and the introduction of the Apocalypse is going to occur. I don’t mean anything frightening or destructive; there has been a misunderstanding with this term. The end of times or the end of the world simply means the way that reality is experienced here is going to change forever and I mean in a very wonderful and powerful way. Earth and all the inhabitants on Earth are very special and the suffering that life has been through here has not been in vain. The Shift in Consciousness and the Apocalypse is very real and approaching rapidly. Who was also correct was the physicist and philosopher Thomas Kuhn who discussed the Paradigm Shift as a complete revolution in the applications of scientific discipline. This happens because the element of consciousness is introduced into the behavior of matter and energy through a very powerful evolutionary advancement in the activity of the Higgs field.

Science itself will evolve and advance in a very powerful way. There has been quantum physicists discussing consciousness, there has been theoretical physicists discussing consciousness, there has been an increase in the debate over Panpsychism.

There have been physicists who have completely disregarded this idea. All of this was supposed to happen like this with life consistently advancing and consciousness evolving because Earth represents the activity that occurred with the formation and introduction of Universal Consciousness. Earth exists in a region of Universal Consciousness that is 13.51 billion years old for a reason. Universal Consciousness contains memory of the early activity and Earth needed to evolve into this location so that activity that occurred over and 13.8 billion years ago could experience evolutionary development and everything in existence could change forever. Earth and life on Earth has suffered and faced great adversity and experienced the most powerful levels of fear and has existed where the most powerful concentration of death is so the evolution of consciousness here could change the course of existence in Page | 74

it’s entirety forever and this is also what the Apocalypse is about. Human beings just have not understood the true meaning of themselves or existence and without any outside influence for very important reasons. Universal Consciousness was in a very natural state of affairs when consciousness, matter and energy was undergoing evolutionary development 13.51 billion years ago. Earth and life on Earth had to be in the same state of affairs in order to assist with the evolutionary development of consciousness within Universal Consciousness. Some very wonderful activity will be approaching soon and Earth will experience an evolutionary advancement into a Brave New World.

About Sean: I've been writing extensively in Metaphysics for about six years now. The primary reason that started me on this literary endeavor was when I heard about the shift in consciousness. I have always sought out and tried to incorporate spirituality in my life to enhance my experience here. I guess you could say I've been an explorer of divinity. In 2010 I saw the photograph taken by NASA of the cross in the core of the Whirlpool galaxy. In 2012 I heard about the discovery of the Higgs boson. I knew there was a correlation between the two and the shift in consciousness that I had been researching and writing about. Since that time I've have utilized different aspects of subject matter pertaining to science and divinity to formulate important and powerful conclusions on what philosopher Thomas Kuhn referred to as the Paradigm shift. I have just finished a book called "Earth's Miracle Through The Paradigm Shift" which I am seeking publication now. I feel as though my unique approach in writing have defined the shift in consciousness in a very spectacular way, that can appeal to a broad range of audiences considering the diversity of the subject matter I include in my conclusions.

"Ancestral Cycles" By Aeolea Wendy Burwell & Peter Doughty Cycles and circles and spirals are at the core of who we are, despite the fact that we have mostly lost sight of them. What you are about to read is intended to offer insights into ways to reconnect with your roots though the ancient art/science of Astrology.

Additionally, we offer a glimpse into the current celestial weather under which we are all operating, so that we may have some awareness of how to use these energies for the highest and best possible outcomes for ourselves and others.

We will again begin by focusing on the Moon’s cycle from New to Full and back again. This is the fastest moving cycle in our heavens and the most readily accessible in the sky to even the most casual observer. Since, in astrological understanding, the Moon represents our emotions - and how we respond to the ebb and flow of everyday life - it is also the most easily observed in a personal way.

We are obviously in a time of great change and disruption of patterns. This is reflected in both the historic planetary pileup in Capricorn as well as the beginning of the astronomical New Year at the Spring Equinox (March 19 when the Sun entered Aries) and New Moon in Aries on March 24. These initiatory energies of Aries can be a self centered, go-it-alone time. How appropriate as we shelter in place as much as possible.

Page | 77

The two weeks following the Full Moon on April 7 in the sign of Libra presents us with situations/opportunities that call on us to integrate our personal needs within our social environment. At this time also there are strong rebellious impulses (Mars and Uranus) that may ignite the restlessness so many are feeling and lead to some shocking events. On the positive end of the spectrum of possibilities, we might also see resolution of stalemates and/or breakthroughs in treatment and release of new technologies. Those with birthdays around April 6-9 and Oct. 10-12 will mostly likely feel these energies the strongest, though we can all clearly see them playing out on the world stage.

The New Moon in early Taurus on April 22 will likely bring more surprises in the areas of finances and an uptick in earth events. This can also be a time to cultivate curiosity and communication in a playful spirit of interdependence, as Venus in Gemini engages with Mars in Aquarius. As many may remember, this is also the fifty-year anniversary of Earth Day and we can celebrate that and more! Those born April 21-23 and Oct. 26-28 will have even strongest access to these energies.

The first ten days of April contain the final phase of Mercury’s sojourn through watery Pisces, in which our communications have been characterized by a wide range of emotional input; from deceptive to inspirational. We may begin to emerge from the fog as Mercury (communication and commerce) passes Neptune (illusion, delusion and dissolution) on April 4. Then on April 11 Mercury moves on to fiery Aries - til April 28 - marking a period of quicker and more direct communication, some of which may become heated.

Venus (love and attraction) enters into playful Gemini on 3 April where she will be for an extended stay through 7 Aug. as she stops and appears to go backwards for about forty days. Those with a Gemini emphasis in their personal charts will most likely find this very pleasant as she is known as the “minor benefic� - second only to Jupiter - and brings welcomed gifts. We all have Gemini in our charts, so no one is left out; it is just a matter of degrees.

As Venus appears to slow down, she will be sinking down in the west in the early evening sky, so if you have missed her nightly appearances of late, make sure to find a clear night just after sundown to find her. Watch for her to reappear as the morning star beginning in late June. Her change in speed and perceived direction also extends her pleasant dance with Mars, creating a rich, ripe environment of cooperation between the feminine and masculine.

Mars (aggression and action) is moving through the humanitarian sign of Aquarius the entire month of April. On March 31, Mars and Saturn found Page | 78

themselves together for a tug-of-war of sorts that will diminish over the next few days as Mars travels faster and leaves Saturn behind. By April 7 (and the Full Moon) we will be all be feeling the rebellious impulses of Mars as it approaches unpredictable Uranus in earthy Taurus by ninety degrees. This stressful angle, called a square, will undoubtedly produce dramatic outbursts of the pent-up energies many are experiencing. It can take the form of defiant action or may also stimulate technologically innovative approaches to socializing and problem solving through all of April and into mid-May. As we focus next on the outer planets, on April 4 Jupiter (bringing largesse) meets with Pluto (hidden power) in government and business-oriented Capricorn for the first of three episodes of pervasive transformation (also June 30 and Nov. 12, 2020). These slow moving planet energies will be felt all throughout these months, with the exact dates offering highlighted episodes.

We are likely to see just how deeply severed our institutions are (and will be going forward) from our accustomed ways of operating. For our world at large, we can expect to see extensive legislative revisions over this extended time period related to temporarily effective moves to restore business as usual. This is also likely to portend the plutocracy gaining even more in the short run.

Again, we all have this event happening in our personal charts. Those who are likely to experience the greater impact have birthdays near Jan. 14-16, April 13-15, July 15-17 and Oct. 16-18. The area of one’s life this most strongly impacts depends on what house in the chart this appears. Whether viewed through the global or personal lens, it is powerful and unlikely to be missed.

Saturn (structure, rules and regulations), which has been traversing Capricorn since Dec. 2017, moved into Aquarius the third week in March, remaining there until early July. At that point, in retrograde, it will go back into Capricorn until Dec. 2020, before re-entering and remaining in Aquarius until March 2023.

Saturn is associated with both Capricorn and Aquarius but expresses its energies differently in each sign. In forward-thinking Aquarius, there may appear glimpses of experimental - less traditional - approaches to the current crisis.

The month of April - actually the entire spring - is an interlude between two very different eras: what we were accustomed to and a yet-to-be-revealed new normal. It is best used to focus on the inner work our previously busy lifestyles too often crowded out. Time spent on self-care, or with family or friends over the internet, will help keep us grounded and stave off both the virus and its predatory companion: fear. The years ahead will provide Page | 79

opportunities to creatively embrace new pathways forward. They will unfold, with our help, into the much-anticipated Age of Aquarius.

"Health" By Monique Lang

It is now scientifically proven that what gurus, shamans, medicine men and such have known for millennia - Our emotional well being impacts our physical well being and vice versa.

At this time it is particularly important to practice mental hygiene. Get enough sleep, eat right, play, go outdoors, talk to loved ones, exercise. Do as much of the things that make you feel good as possible.

As an attempt to be of service in this way, I recorded this youtube meditation.

See Below.

______________ zen habits by Leo Babauta Page | 82

"The Power of Getting Clarity" Before I started Zen Habits, I was in a place in my life where I had a beautiful family, but I was stuck and dissatisfied with myself.

I knew I wanted to change things — my health, finances, job, way that I was approaching life — but I didn’t really know what I wanted to do about any of it. Most of the time, I just ignored all of this, and distracted myself.

I didn’t have any clarity on what I wanted or what I needed to do. This lack of clarity is felt in all of us very deeply, so that it shows up in how we talk, how we hold ourselves, how other people feel us. It affects our relationships, our jobs, our health.

Then I got very clear that I needed to change. And clear that I wanted to quit smoking, start running, become vegetarian, start waking earlier, and start writing more. I went on to do all those and more.

Clarity helps us to focus, to take action, to feel energized.

A lack of clarity causes stress, inaction, a scattered focus, relationship difficulties, confusion on teams.

Some examples of areas to find clarity in: Your mission in life Your morning routine Your financial plan What you need to do to improve your relationship How you’ll get healthier What others expect of you; what you expect of them How a meeting will be run What your boundaries are in each relationship As you can see, this is a pretty broad topic — it can apply to every part of our lives. And we don’t have to be perfect, and we don’t have to get clarity on everything this week. It’s something to bring awareness to, that we can improve over time.

But the more we find clarity, the more we’ll have focus, calm, motivation.

How to Get Clarity Page | 83

OK, great … we want to get clarity in our lives … how do we do that?

I’ll share some things I’ve learned for finding clarity: Create some space. When we’re unclear on something (how we should reach a goal, for example) … most often we put it off instead of getting any clarity.

Instead, try creating some space to get clarity. Carve out an hour. Half a day.

A weekend. (Depending on how big the thing is that you need clarity on.)

Then do the things below. But carve out the space.

Journal, iterate. Write about what you need clarity on — it doesn’t have to be any solid answers, or any kind of coherent writing. Just let your thoughts pour out. Stream of consciousness. Just give yourself space to reflect.

Meditate & contemplate. Similarly, you can go out in nature and spend some time in solitude. Go for a walk. Sit on a rock. Meditate. See what comes up for you. Hold one question in your mind: “What do I want here?” Or something like that. See if anything emerges as you hold the question.

Talk to others. Share your thoughts with others. Share what you’re not sure about. What you’re afraid of. Hear their thoughts. Just the act of talking it out is valuable — you’re giving space for your thoughts and feelings, and having them heard. Often you can get clarity from a good conversation.

When you have a little clarity, write it down. If you have some kind of answer, any kind of clarity at all, write it down as simply as you can. Two sentences.

Putting it down simply helps it become more clear. And then you can start to take action on it.

Take action to get clarity. Many people think they need to have clarity before they take action, but it often happens the other way around. Have the slightest bit of direction? Go in that direction, take the first steps, see what it’s like.

You’ll learn more from doing than going back and forth on things. For example, as I started working on my mission, I got clearer and clearer that this is what was meaningful for me, but I also got clearer on how I’d go about doing it. Maybe in a couple years, I’ll have even more clarity, but I’m not going to wait for that in order to take action. Start moving, and learn from that.

Reflect after you take action & get clearer. As you set things in motion, it’s useful to step back every month or two to see how things are going. What have you learned? What’s getting in the way? Use what you’ve learned to get even more clarity. Write it down simply. Take action again.

And repeat.

What areas of your life need clarity? How is the lack of clarity affecting you and those around you?

Are you ready to create the space to get the clarity?

MBO's by Tom T. Moore

This Blog is for people who wish to learn how to use a very simple, yet powerful and effective spiritual tool every day the rest of your life. It will lessen the stress and fear of life in general, and will make your life easier. It’s so simple a lot of people say “It can’t be this easy,” but it is, because IT WORKS! This reconnects you with your Guardian Angel, or higher power, or whatever your belief is. You simply say, “I request a Most Benevolent Outcome for… thank you!” When you read the stories below, sent from all over the world, we use the acronyms MBO for Most Benevolent Outcomes, GA for Guardian Angel, and BP for Benevolent Prayers (what you ask for other people).

Be sure to participate when I ask you to say a Benevolent Prayer out loud, but are you also saying the Daily BP each morning as I do? Theo says this is one of the most important things you could do for yourself not only for this life, but all the others you have lived or will live on earth, as they are all happening at the same time. Print it out and put it on your bathroom mirror to remind you. Here is the link: http://www.thegentlewaybook.com/signs.htm. Here is an example of a BP for everyone to say today: “I ask any and all beings to intervene in the most benevolent way to stop any terrorist attacks before they happen anywhere in the world, to respect other religions, and for there to be peace in the world, thank you!”

Welcome to the Benevolent Outcomes Blog, and welcome to everyone who subscribed in the past week.

BP TO FIND RUBBING ALCOHOL Angie writes: BP to be Able to Find Scarce Sanitizers: Due to the spread of the corona virus, the stores in my city have ran out of rubbing alcohol, sanitizers, face masks, disposable gloves. Yesterday, my husband went to three supermarkets to buy rubbing alcohol, which had been out of stock for a week now, and couldn’t buy any. This morning, he went out Page | 86

to see if he could buy. As he left, I said a BP that he would be able to buy three bottles (limit is 2 bottles per person) and disposable plastic gloves. True enough, he was able to buy 3 bottles and 1 big pack of gloves. BPs work all the time! Thank you GAs, archangels, guides, any and all beings. Thank you, Tom, for teaching us about BPs and MBOs. Angie added: Please say aloud: “I ask any and all beings to aid, assist, and comfort all doctors, nurses, health workers, hospital staff, who are caring for patients with the Covid19 virus, that they remain energized, competent, safe, healthy and virus-free, safely, easily, effortlessly, quicky and in peace, with ease and grace in the highest and best way, and that the results be even more than expected, thank you.”

MBOs AND BPs DURING THE PANDEMIC Linda writes: So I have a number of MBO and BP prayers, as NY is under lockdown, due to the virus. I prayed for the return of lost keys, and found them as they fell off a counter onto the ledge of the floor below. I was told to look there, after I calmed down. I pray every day for financial recovery for this virus, and economic issues to be resolved at work. I prayed for toilet paper, and a few days later my son texts me with a surprise; he found me some!

Right after that my Amazon delivery came for the same. I prayed for a delay in a construction project I signed for, because I wasn’t ready to spend so much money when furloughs and layoffs were about to hit. NY caused the delay stating only essential businesses could operate. I pray to be healthy, and I am even, as illness was starting to come on. I prayed to be calm, and it helps. I pray for the business recovery and relief of economic hardship for my tenants, and all people. Most of all I pray for a more benevolent life, and I believe I am moving toward that reality. Thanks for all you do. I’ll keep praying for us all!

BPs FOR HUSBAND AND HIS BUSINESS Joanne writes: Here you go, Tom. The Radiant Effect. In our town, for whatever reason, every store front that has a window was vandalized by a Group of mischievous youngsters. They etched in the glass a message which is hard to read. They did this along the entire Avenue, except my husband’s office. I believe the MBOs I’ve been saying and BPs protect my family. This is incredible and I thank you Tom, and our GA! About Tom T.

"Magickal Resilience" By Elizabeth Chapman & Su Weber It seems like the entire planet is overwhelmed with concern and despair over the current pandemic. Everyone is stressing over the economy, the prospects of becoming ill, and the barrage of constant news updates and social media seem to make the situation worse.

Whether you know it or not, stress lowers the efficiency of your immune system’s ability to fight off illness. As Witches, we know the value of taking time out of our busy lives to practice regular self-care is a vital part of our magickal work. No matter what you think about it, we are stuck in a world that is changing rapidly and the future may feel weak and uncertain. It is time for us Witches to generate what we are calling Magickal Resilience!!!

We define resilience as the ability to get back up, bounce back, move forward on our spiritual path regardless of circumstances. Here’s our plan: Find a candle (we know you a lot of them around your house), light it, and for the next five minutes sit with it burning in front of you. Feel the flame carrying the power of resilience into you, filling you from your toes to the top of your head! Now let it flow out of you and into the world around you. Let your intent be that you are sending a beacon of hope and resilience to anyone who needs it. At the end of the five minutes, extinguish the candle and go do the next thing you need to accomplish to get through the day. Commit to doing this every day until the world’s latest crisis passes. Remember that you are also creating magickal resilience in yourself at the same time because you are also a part of the world. This is a way to stop trying to deal with the overwhelming feelings of powerlessness when so much is beyond our control.

Be Well! Stay Healthy! Choose love and kindness as often as possible!

So Mote It Be!

"Root Chakra" By Cherry-Lee Ward

The Root or Base is the lowest of the seven chakras. It is located between the base of the spine and the perineal floor. It is the place where we connect with mother earth – it is the source of grounding.

When this chakra functions well, we are not worried about our survival. A healthy first chakra keeps us feeling connected to our community and to abundance in all of life. It particularly supports financial abundance. A strong first chakra allows us to handle stress with grace. Stillness and patience are easy and comfortable. Rather than breaking, we are flexible and able to bend with life. Functioning successfully on a physical level feels natural. When this chakra is in balance, we manage our lives well and little stands in the way of manifesting our desires.When this chakra functions poorly, we may have anxiety and fears that are out of proportion. We may hoard or experience scarcity. Rage may be present, or we may have an unrealistic view of life that is not grounded in reality.

You can support the Root Chakra with any Self Care. Get outside and walk, connect with nature, drink plenty of water, eat healthy foods, make sleep a Page | 95

priority, meditate and receive regular body and energy work.

So, when you are feeling like you might not survive -- whether it’s a busy day or a financially stressful time, pull out some red clothing, put in a CD with a good rhythm, take a few minutes for meditation or a walk, find your own way to connect to the power and abundance of the root chakra.

More Information & Ways to Support the Root Chakra Color: Red Wear red clothes, red shoes or paint your toe nails red to enhance grounding and your connection to the earth.

Element: Earth Care for both your physical body and your financial health.

Sound: Drum Dance, drum, or listen to music with a good beat.

Stones: Hematite – VERY grounding and dissolves negativity Bloodstone – helps you accept change Tourmaline – grounds spiritual energy and brings protection Smoky Quartz – grounding, it allows passion to flow and fortifies resolve Garnet - the color of the root chakra - balances the libido, aids commitment and is useful in a crisis Wear a stone necklace, bracelet or carry a small stone in your pocket.

Archetype: The Serpent To get in the vibe of the serpent, feel your connection to the earth. Slither as you move from one activity or location to the other, noticing sensation on your skin.

Organs, Systems and Aspects of the Body Governed: Adrenals, Spinal Column, Kidneys, Feet, Legs and Procreation Page | 96

Affirmations: I am grounded and balanced.

I trust the process of life.

I am safe and secure.

My path reveals itself to me.

I am now living an abundant life.

I’m now receiving money from known and unknown sources.

Essential Oils: Canadian Tsuga -- Grounding and calming, it helps you be in the moment.

Cinnamon -- Good for exhaustion and stress. It will release rage from the energy field.

Clove -- empowers you to be true to your heart’s desire, supports the release of blockages in the emotional body and stimulates Kundalini energy.

Patchouli -- fortifies the will to live, unlocks the root chakra, creates an affinity with the heartbeat of Mother Nature.

Ylang Ylang -- helps with boundaries and discerning the appropriate use of energy. It connects you to your power and destiny and brings courage to claim what is yours.

Foods: Protein -- tofu, beans, nuts, seeds, soy products, peanut butter, eggs, dairy & meats Root vegetables -- carrots, potatoes, parsnips, radishes, beets, onions, and garlic Spices -- horseradish, hot paprika, chives, cayenne, pepper Red Foods -- apples, grapes, potatoes, strawberries Chant: Lam or “O” as in home The Root Lock -- from the Eight Human Talents by Gurmukh.

Page | 97

Contract the muscles of the anus, sex organs, and naval at the same time. (If in the first three days of your moon cycle don’t do this lock. If pregnant, squeeze only the first and second chakras.)

The best way to do this is to complete a full cycle of inhaling and exhaling through your nose. When you are completely emptied of all breath, it is then you pull the root lock and hold it for a few seconds. After that, let go of the root lock and begin to inhale once again.

Keep your eyes closed and rolled upwards. See how long you can hold the root lock before you take in another breath. This small internal exercise helps you pull up energy from the earth itself.

"Frequencies for Defense" By Jill Mattson

Sound Healing to protect your Immune System ~ Containing Frequencies to counter the Coronavirus.

FREE DOWNLOADS SHARE THE WEBSITE WITH EVERYONE YOU KNOW! Early there was so much traffic to get the free downloads that the site kept crashing. I have put a second copy of the files to download at JillsWingsOfLight.com!

Friends!

Are you interested in Free Frequencies for Defense of your Immune System?

Sharry Edward & Jill Mattson have collaborated to come up with over 70 minutes of free listening in 18 mp3s. You can download all 18 mp3s now, at no cost! Go to the website: CoronaVirusDefense.org. Click on the "About" tab and follow instructions on how to access the free frequencies. >Bios on Edwards and Mattson are also available on the website.

The collection of 18 mp3s is called: Frequencies for Defense ~ Sound Healing Protection for your Immune System against the Coronavirus.

Our immune system is our best defense against serious illness in general and the coronavirus in particular. The use of specially selected frequencies cannot prevent infection, but they can significantly reduce the severity of illness Page | 101

alongside a program of good health habits, nutrition, exercise, proper rest and emotional balance. (Please note that this has not been tested. No cure is claimed. Everyone is advised to follow medical advice and procedures. See full disclaimer on website.)

Edwards has been able to determine that with the onslaught of the current pandemic, the body is in dire need of specific nutrients to help counter the coronavirus; two critical ones according to Edwards are glutathione and quercetin. A healthy immune system always needs these nutrients - and in the case of the coronavirus they are especially essential.

Listen to Mattson's compositions containing Edwards Frequency EquivalentsTM of glutathione and quercetin. Your body needs a healthy dose of these energies and this is a powerful way to get them. Altogether Frequencies For Defense, consists of 18 tracks and over 70 minutes of listening.

There are also frequencies of other valuable vitamins and supplements as well as tones for Healing Flowers and Crystals - contained in these tracks. In addition to the critical compounds, glutathione and quercetin, we have included seven other substances that will empower the effectiveness of the immune system and increase the overall efficacy of these mp3s. Some of the other frequencies included are for: Vitamin C, adrenaline, ephinephrine, ACTH and others. We currently cannot prevent infection by the coronavirus, but we can help significantly reduce the severity of the disease by building up our immune systems. https://www.coronavirusdefence.org/ Glutathione and quercetin are two nutrients that a healthy immune system always needs - and in the case of the coronavirus they are especially essential.

We can eat foods that are good sources of these nutrients, such as: For glutathione - asparagus, avocado, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, spinach, broccoli, garlic, chives, tomatoes, cucumbers, almonds and walnuts For quercetin - onions, apples, grapes, berries, broccoli, citrus fruits, cherries, tea and capers Research has shown that glutathione is an antioxidant in plants, animals and some simple organisms. It has been shown to be a critical component in the lymphatic system - supporting the immune system. It has also demonstrated detoxification benefits. Quercetin has exhibited a wide range of health benefits, including the ability to reduce inflammation, reduce pain, protect against cardiovascular diseases, anti-cancer agent, boost immune system, Page | 102

reduce histamines, fight allergic reactions and skin irritation.

The free mp3 tracks run from about two minutes to seven minutes each in length. They will sound like pleasing instrumental music on the surface.

However, these compositions are deep multilayered tonics. They are filled with conventional music from over 20 instruments plus - most importantly the frequencies for critical components needed by your immune system.

Finally, there are also embedded sounds in these tracks from Healing Flowers and Crystals for emotional support and strength. ~ Disclosure - Disclaimer ~ Finally - PLEASE BE AWARE - we are not medical professionals and we make no claims that these products will heal any conditions.

“The Chaos and Peace of Psychic-Mediumship” By Connie Wake & Susan Fiandach

Our natural intuitive ability is coming out of the dark ages of mystique, magic and mayhem…finally!

Psychics-mediumship is the ability of intuitive interpretation of information received through the extra perception of our senses. This is supported by eons of human experience, paranormal, near-death and the like, and the ones most of us have every day. Also, as a science-view, we can follow the outcome of the double-slit experiment illustrating how the observer (consciousness) affects the path of a particle (energy).

To restate…there is a relationship between the information of consciousness and energy, and we use our sensory perception to navigate through physical Page | 105

via the five physical senses, and energy via the sixth sense…aka ESP, intuition, vibes, “just had a feeling,” “that small voice,” etc. Our brain is involved as the tool of the interpretation.

We receive signals from energy around us…the energy of people, places and things…and interpret those signals through our brains that bring up memories and emotions. If the brain saw a scary movie about hauntings, ghosts, demon apparitions, etc., then its interpretation would use that frame of reference to interpret the energy information of a spirit in the room. A biased view, and only true for the one thinking it. Remembering a childhood cartoon favorite, Casper the Friendly Ghost, there’s more to it than fear.

The observer’s frame of reference affects the sensory interpretation of the energy information being received and paints the picture of reality accordingly.

This interpretation, then, can be chaos or peace for the person involved.

Chaos is defined as confusion, disarray, disorganization. The gaps in understanding something can cause chaos…the lack of organized thought can cause chaos. When something is explained as magic or mystical, the person is left with unexplained gaps of the unknown, and most of the time, fear. When fear is used to affect a person’s experience, that is referred to as mayhem.

On the other end of the spectrum is peace. Peace is a state of calm, quiet and harmony. There is no discourse. There is comfort and closure to the peaceful state of “all is well.”

If these concepts are related to psychic-mediumship, we can see an experience of chaos or peace.

If within ourselves, our chaos is based on not having enough information, not seeing a larger view or perspective…defaulting to a fear-based outcome or experience.

If within ourselves, our peace is based on understanding the “all” in “all is well” and seeing/sensing beyond the fear. Peace comes from a joy-based perspective or understanding.

If as a service from a psychic-medium, the same applies! The psychic-medium will either imbue chaos or peace, based on their interpretation and delivery of the sensed energy/information being received.

It all, then, boils down to where one exists. Is your reality fear-based and in the negative/positive of emotion, hell/heaven, demon/angel and the Page | 106

powerless?

Or is your reality joy-based and in loving peace and wisdom, and powerful beingness.

Defining the reality, the universe, where one exists, is a choice of reality.

Define yours and then follow the rules of that universe…confusion, chaos, discord or calm, peace, acceptance, joy. See it in yourself…see it in others.

Out of the dark ages of the mystique, magic and mayhem…chaos…and into the powerful wisdom of our natural intuitive nature…peace.

“Communion, Cruscifixion, and Ressurection for Easter” by Niann Emerson Chase What does communion mean? According to the tenth edition of Merriam Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary communion means: “mutual participation; the act or instance of sharing; intimate fellowship or rapport. A Christian sacrament in which consecrated bread and wine are consumed as symbols for the realization of a spiritual union between Christ and the communicant.”

Derivatives of communion are: • Commune, which means “to communicate intimately;” communicate means “to share, to transmit information, thought or feeling, so that it is satisfactorily received or understood. To open into each other; to connect.”

• Community, which means “a unified body of individuals; a body of individuals having something in common. A fellowship.”

Jesus communed and communicated with his apostles daily, and he lived in community with them. In this closeness of living with the apostles, Jesus showed them how he lived his life moment to moment in communion with God. In his teaching them, Jesus sought to divert the minds of his apostles from glory and “miracle seeking to the finding of a real and personal experience in the satisfaction and assurance of the indwelling of God’s spirit of love and saving grace.” [The URANTIA Book, p.1545] In other words, Jesus taught and lived that the most important thing about an individual’s religion was his or her personal relationship with God and then how we live with and love others.

Communion with each one of the apostles and with them as a group began from the time that Jesus began to live in community with them. We are told on page 1546 of The URANTIA Book: “Nothing ever seemed so important to Page | 108

Jesus as the individual human who chanced to be in his immediate presence.

He was master and teacher, but he was more. He was also a friend and neighbor and understanding comrade.”

Comrade means: “an intimate friend or associate. A companion, a fellow soldier.” The URANTIA Book indicates that from the beginning days of the apostles uniting with Jesus, they continued to be disappointed, confused, overwhelmed, frustrated, and puzzled with many of Jesus’ teachings and his decisions. But in spite of this, all apostles except Judas stayed with Jesus until the end because of their love of him as a person.

In those early days with Jesus, Matthew said about their Master, “The more you understand some people, the less you admire them, but of this man, even the less I comprehend him, the more I love him.” [The URANTIA Book, p.

1545] On page, 1546 of The URANTIA Book, we are told: With all of their grumblings, doubts, and transient dissatisfactions, the apostles remained true to their vows of devotion and loyalty to the Master.

It was their personal association with Jesus during these months of testing that so endeared him to them, that they all, save Judas Iscariot, remained loyal and true to him. Even in the dark hours of the trial and crucifixion, real men simply could not actually desert a revered teacher who had lived so close to them and had been so devoted to them as had Jesus. Through the dark hours of the Master’s death, in the hearts of these apostles, all reason, judgment and logic were set aside in deference to just one extraordinary human emotion, the supreme sentiment of friendship loyalty. These first five months of work with Jesus led these apostles, each one of them, to regard him the best friend he had in all the world. And it was this human sentiment and not his superb teachings or marvelous doings that held them together until after the resurrection and the renewal of the proclamation of the gospel of the kingdom.

Remember Webster’s definition of communion? “A Christian sacrament in which consecrated bread and wine are consumed as symbols for the realization of a spiritual union between Christ and the communicant.” Pages 1941 to 1943 of The URANTIA Book describe this first communion that Jesus introduced at the last supper before he was arrested, tormented, tried, and crucified. Also at that last supper Jesus displayed the most beautiful, humbling act when he knelt down at each of the apostles’ feet and washed them, which was the job of a servant. It was a deeply moving experience for those apostles, and it was a tremendous teaching for them. …now, the Master was instituting a new remembrance Page | 109

supper as a symbol of the new dispensation, wherein the enslaved individual emerges from the bondage of ceremonialism and selfishness into the spiritual joy of the brotherhood[/sisterhood], and fellowship of the liberated faith sons [and daughters] of the living God. (ibid., p.1942) As they brought Jesus the third cup of wine, the cup of blessing, he arose from the couch and, taking the cup in his hands, blessed it, saying, “Take this cup all of you and drink of it. This shall be the cup of my remembrance.

This is the cup of the blessing of a new dispensation of grace and truth. This shall be to you, the emblem of the bestowal and ministry of the divine spirit of truth and I will not again drink this cup with you until I drink in new form with you in the Father’s eternal kingdom.” (ibid., p. 1941) When they had finished drinking this new cup of remembrance, the Master took up the bread and after giving thanks, broke it in pieces and directing them to pass it around, said, “Take this bread of remembrance and eat it. I have told you that I am the bread of life. And this bread of life is the united life of the Father and of the Son in one gift. The word of the Father as revealed in the Son is indeed the bread of life.” When they had partaken of the bread of life, the symbol of the living word of truth, incarnated in the likeness of mortal flesh, they all sat down. (ibid., p. 1942)

The sacrament of communion is merely a symbolical and artistic reminder that each one of us as individuals can have that intimate and personal communion with Jesus Christ Michael daily, moment to moment. Christ Michael is our daily comrade through his Spirit of Truth that is in each one of us. As a result of that communion with Jesus, we draw closer to the Universal Father through communication and cooperation with our Thought Adjuster, the Fragment of God the Father within each of us. It was Jesus’ communion Page | 110

with his apostles and disciples that enabled them to eventually believe in his resurrection and accept his ministry to them in his morontia forms. It is that daily communion with Christ Michael that enables us to continually be resurrected from our own deaths to our dio (erroneous) patterns, our own disappointments, confusions, and frustrations. It is that communion with the Creator that enables us to continue on after our various crucifixions, being resurrected to carry on the ministry today as the apostles and the disciples carried on Jesus’ ministry for the rest of their lives.

Think of those times of resurrection in your life when in some way God reached out to you. God reaches out in so many ways. He reaches out through nature. He reaches out through other human beings. He reaches out through the living spiritual forces that are on this planet, and of course He reaches out through the Threefold Spirit that is within us. I want you to reflect upon the different resurrections that you have had in this life, where you have in some way been uplifted by God’s personal ministry to you.

There are a lot of things happening on this planet that are very frightening and discouraging. We are aware of those signs of the so-called “end times,” but let us not forget the vision and the destiny of this planet and that light and life is being brought here. All of these other things that are happening are simply the labor pains of the transition into this rebirthing of our planet and of each of us as individuals if we choose to resurrect in God’s outreach to us.

"Excuses Won't Cut It Anymore" By Dean Fraser

Some hold onto the excuse “it’s just my karma” to validate their reasons for remaining static, they feel this is a good enough reason to stay exactly where they are. To be blunt, this is a poor excuse for inaction. And my word there are so many more…proclamations along the lines of “Oh well, you know nobody in my family ever achieved much, so I guess I’m just going to accept that I won’t either” or “I tried further education years ago when I was a teenager and when it didn’t work-out I felt like a failure, I’m sure playing it safe from now on” and “It’s not my fault I wake every day lacking in energy and motivation, it’s just my lot in life” or the classic “I’m too young, old, short, tall, unqualified, overqualified, beautiful, unattractive, unconventional, shy, (delete as appropriate)!” every single one of these are frankly garbage excuses to throw right into the trash where they belong!

I have to share with you this one extra special example of an excuse I had personally said to me in all seriousness “well you know, I would love to stop smoking cigarettes, but I meditated on this and I now know God intends for me to be a smoker”. This woman really felt she had come up with the ultimate validation to keep right on doing things the way she always had…I mean what an excuse, wow!

FEEL THE PAIN The fear of avoiding the consequences of not changing can be such a powerful motivation to finally leave a comfort zone. The discomfort of potentially facing personal humiliation or future pain gives us a proverbial kick-start straight into action like nothing else!

Page | 112

Avoiding the consequences of emotional hurt can powerfully motivate us into rapidly leaving a comfort zone. We’re not talking here necessarily of actual physical pain, although in some cases it can be – avoiding a feeling we never want to experience again is about as raw a reason to get healthier or take financial control of our lives as we will ever get!

THE EASIEST WAY TO LEAVE A COMFORT ZONE This applies equally if we are afraid of going for promotion, dating, public speaking, visiting the dentist, travelling to another country, ballroom dancing, mountain climbing, spiders, getting physically fit, having our own business, further educating ourselves, skiing, writing a book and any of the thousand and one things which can cause us to break-out into a cold sweat at the prospect of.

Is there something else you might have always wondered what it was like to do, but your falsely self-imposed limitations seemingly rendered it impossible?

This can be from practically any starting point.

Personally, since early childhood I possessed an irrational terror of large ships. As an adult tracing back through my own timeline I realised this originated from a children’s picture book I read in year one of school about Titanic and other shipwrecks.

Finally, about twenty years ago I chose to undertake a day-trip on the very source of my fear. A large passenger ferry to visit France, in quite rough seas as it turned out to be on the day – only to leave myself with no other alternative but to have to repeat the same journey in reverse, in even rougher seas coming back home later that day in the evening. This experience sure cured me of that one!

You can do the same with anything similar in your own life and mentally tick off another supposedly impossible task completed.

At sixteen years old, in my second job within two months, my boss instilled in me from day one (when he had me rather tentatively phoning potential customers to pitch within an hour of arriving for my first day at the office) it’s fine to make a few mistakes, it’s the only way to learn. And oh boy did I ever do exactly that with those first few phone calls! After a week or two though I began to understand what to say and how to say it to get a higher percentage of the positive responses rather than all those turn-downs.

The fastest way to leave any comfort zone…is to walk right ahead towards whatever is limiting you…

Page | 113

confront that inner demon…tweak it on the nose a bit…then face your fear head on and actually do it!

I can promise you the feeling is incomparable, the boost to self-esteem and confidence is worth all the temporary pain and angst, better still you have permanently removed another barrier from your life.

To radically change life for the better certainly doesn’t require us to radically change as a person. Quite literally all that is needed is a shift in our awareness of what can really be brilliantly possible then consciously choosing to go out there and make that possibility our reality.

This simple shift in feeling makes all the difference.

What this entire process aims to do is place your future directly into your own hands, then any changes are measured and intentionally calculated…by YOU! About Dean: Over three decades ago Dean Fraser decided to make his mission helping raise the vibrational energy on our beautiful planet. He writes inspiring books and poetry collections, he presents talks on spiritual holistic living and creates art through meditation. Dean also hosts syndicated arts and culture radio show Beyond Poetry, he writes for around thirty international magazines and was for a while resident poet on a local TV channel. Dean firmly believes that we are all capable of far more than we ever imagined possible and all that latent potential is waiting right their within us awaiting the right trigger to be released....he trusts that by learning to listen to our intuition, we will encounter exactly the experiences necessary to grow into the person needed to fulfill all of our dreams and goals.

Channeling

Channeling is a natural form of communication between humans and ascended masters, angelic beings, nature spirits, or non-physical entities. A channeler is very similar to a language translator or interpreter. They allow themselves to sense the non-verbal communication from another being and then translate it into human words.

Channeling is often defined as the act of allowing a spiritual entity (e.g., angel, archangel, ascended master, guide, deceased loved one) to merge, join, or enter your body and use your vocal cords to communicate directly with those on the Earth plane or provide knowledge and the channeler can write down the shared information. For some people who channel, the entity will also move the channeler’s body (e.g., open your eyes, move your arms/legs, have you walk around).

Channeling can be done in two different ways: Conscious channeling is done while being fully aware of what is happening, including being able to stop the experience at any time. The channeler can remember what was said to varying degrees. Often conscious channels will say that they hear themselves speaking as if they were at a distance . . . as if they were listening from another room. When told about what was said, they often feel as if they are remembering a dream. There are many people currently alive on the Earth plane who consciously channel. For example, Esther Hicks brings through the group of entities that refer to themselves as Abraham (no relation to the Old Testament). They speak about the Law of Attraction.

Page | 115

Trance channeling is channeling done while in a deep trance state. Arguably one of the most famous trance channelers was Edgar Cayce. He was referred to as “The Sleeping Prophet� because he only channeled when he was in a deep trance state. This meant that he lost all muscle tone and had to be lying down. He was also unable to remember what he said, which meant that his secretary had to be present to take dictation and then transcribe the notes from the channeling session.

Our channelers are providing their information to help us on our path. _________________

"The Flower People from The Hollow Earth" By Dianne Robbins

So we are here to talk about the flowers, and how they bloom so beautifully and so abundantly in Spring. They lift their heads and turn their faces toward the Sun, and lo and behold, their magnificent bodies emerge from the dirt and you see their full beauty and smell their deep fragrance. They are magical aren't they? And they have a message for your surface folk now: Dearest people on Earth, we are the Flower People from Catharia, inside the Hollow Earth, here to guide you also, and to bring you the fragrant scents and smells from the Heaven World through our delicate and beautifully shaped bodies of Light. For we are of Light also, although your five senses do not yet Page | 116

detect our vibration.

We flow our Light to you in currents of waves when you kneel beside us to smell our fragrant petals or to touch our stems. This is especially so in the Hollow Earth, where the people are connected to us in their full consciousness. Soon you will be too, and then we can converse and play together. Yes, we love to play, and we do this easily. Even though we cannot move around, our laughter and voices can be heard whenever you are in our vicinity, and we can play in our thoughts and visions and sing to all those around us. If you listen deeply, you can hear our songs and sing along with us.

We invite you into our aura and into our lives.

We were sent here by the Spiritual Hierarchy to guide you into your ascension, and to bring you the beauty of Heaven. For as you connect with our beauty, you connect to Heaven. It is one and the same. For beauty is who you are, and we are here to remind you of this truth. We send our love out to you on the petals of springtime and the aromas wafting through the air. Catch them and connect to us. We await your visit. We are the Flower People from deep inside the Earth.

About Dianne: Dianne Robbins continues her connection to the civilizations of Inner Earth, the Elementals and Nature Kingdoms for over 25 years. Her transmissions connect our hearts to the hearts of Beings in advanced civilizations, Whales, Dolphins, the Tree People, the Crystal Nation and Earth’s Elemental Kingdoms. In service to Earth, Dianne continues to provide her channelings to keep people informed of the vital link between our surface world and other realms of existence who share our planet with us. As we merge our consciousness with these other realms, our perceptual range expands and our inner sight opens.

A Blessing, A gift to all on your journey As your walk enhances all life. ~ Sage Walker Page | 119

Periodically I have kept journals throughout my life. When I was moving I found quite a few of them.

As I am ready to throw them out I looked and found I had written a lot of spirit messages. Some were about my situations in life but most were not about me.

Various things I encounter they would give me the messages about, so I always wrote them down. I would also meet people or see them in my practice and they would send me information for them.

They are not grammatically correct, but I have not altered them except to delete the persons name. I believe I was to write them exactly as they gave them to me. I have also been told that they will help others.

They were a gift from spirit to me to help myself and others. We do not walk this journey alone no matter what is in our life. We need to always move forward and become a better person with each step.

I hope they will assist you on your journey as they did me.

"April Message Of Light" by Christia Cummings Dear Beloved Children of the Light, It Is with great joy in our hearts that we come forth this day in great celebration. There have been many goings on behind the scenes and lots of positive frequencies have been pouring onto your planet. Currently there has been a wave of fear and panic with the current “pandemic”. But please have no fear, all is in High Divine Order, and we ask now that you focus on a past event in your life that brought you great joy. Please take a moment and bring this Joy frequency into your energy body. As you do there is great healing taking place. And with this great healing will come great peace. You all are sensitives and Light Beings here now because your Soul chose to be here now.

Make no mistake you are who you have been waiting for, and now is the time of the Great Awakening. The masses now how the opportunity to awaken in the safety and comfort of their homes with family. As they awaken there will be some questioning their whole belief system that they have held so dear.

You have already had this shake up, you can easily give a lending hand, kind word, compassion, and help guide them. Please know you can do this, this is why you are here. Be the Light that you are and trust in YOU, trust in yourself and your own instincts and heart. Your heart will lead the way.

We love you all and we are here, never leaving, Your Star Soul Family of Light About Christia: I was born an artist, empath, clairvoyant, and a channel of Spirit. My grandmother said I could draw and play cards before I could walk.

I have always drawn upon Nature as my inspiration for healing and my art. In 1995, I had a spiritual awakening with a chorus of Angels-- a momentous event in my life – which caused me to open myself up to Spirit and the magical, inspirational multi-dimensional Universe. I teach practical tools on how to open to a dialogue with your angels and spirit guides during my healing sessions and classes. The Angel Light energy comes through my artwork into your home and environment. Everything I do, say, or touch has Angelic Energy. It has been my prayer for over 20 years that I be a pure channel of the Highest Love and Light, and that I am of service to the Light.

Guided by The Arch Angels, I began working with clients from all over the world. The Angels have told me that I AM a bridge from the Angelic Realm to this 3D Human Realm. They have asked me to call myself an Angel Medium. I AM A Certified Angelic Life Coach, an Ordained Minister, Usui Reiki Master/Teacher, and holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts and a Master of Fine Arts in painting.

"Time of Change - Spirit Uranus Talks" By Hanni Salovaara

Man’s security is often resting on the past and the unchangeable, when changes seem to him as catastrophes bringing disaster. Man realizes that God has created everything he sees, the entire universe. He understands God’s infinite wisdom and power and still, when he is thinking about his own life which is born of the same same power, he doubts and fears. Can you think that this force has made a mistake in you? Does this force make mistakes in your world or in the universe? Alone through the cycle of nature and the mechanism of your body, you can realize that it does not because this force is neither absent-minded nor forgetful. You know the safety, dependability and lovingness of this force, for this force is not trying to destroy your life but is trying to carry, construct, open and bring joy and happiness. If man really believes in God, this loving force, how can he then doubt that this power would want something bad for him in his future? This force serves in everything and everywhere, when life is a loving stream and love itself.

Everyone defines the direction of this stream by himself, and when one surrenders to this stream, one surrenders to the soul plan which one has once chosen and has considered to be good for himself. The life of every human is like a journey which he has planned for himself because he has seen it necessary. He has also seen that when he sets out on the journey, he has all that he needs on his way so that the journey would be happy, useful, meaningful and successful in every way. All those possibilities are slumbering in man and only waiting for a chance to rise when all the spiritual and physical potentials awake unless he denies them with his own thoughts. It is Page | 124

all only about how man uses his mind. So, create for yourselves thought patterns which will carry you forward in your life with love. Every moment is change and every moment of change contains happiness, for it is in the midst of everything in every moment. Every moment is giving up and receiving, and you yourselves decide on which you focus your mind and what you create with your mind, for it is going to increase in your life. The thought is yours, for you create your life in every moment.

If you think about seasons, you realize that the new often necessitates the departure of the old. Storms and upheavals can serve and help the old transform and disappear, thus opening the door to something new. When you realize this, you also know in the phase of upheavals that you are stepping forward in your life and receiving something new which is even better than what is gone. Then the upheaval does not cause any problems but you can bless it and thank it. On the other hand, man can, during the phase of an upheaval, see only chaos, find it bad, create fears and stagnate in that state.

Then the future cannot unfold but everything is just prolonged. Everything is in every moment man’s free choice, so use your thoughts, do not let thoughts use you! All the thoughts of the world are swirling around you all the time, so think about what kind of cacophony life can be if one lets this mass of thoughts guide one’s life! A change can come through acceptance, and acceptance opens the door to change, for acceptance always gives the freedom of choice.

Trust yourselves, respect yourselves and listen to yourselves, for you have in you all that you need. Try out how your own knowledge can serve you and no matter what you will find in you, accept it, open your heart to it and thank it.

Then you know that there is nothing in you, nothing, that is not meant to take your forward in your life. You yourselves have built and attracted everything there is in you in relation to yourselves, other people, institutions, outside world, anything. Everything in you is born out of your needs and it is meant to take your life forward as well as fulfill the meaning of your life. When you accept it with gratitude, it will unfold.

Who is Adair? I a seeker of my own truth. I’m also a yoga educator, transformation doula, artist and writer, social work researcher and consultant, and a passionate horse lover and advocate. My passions influence each other, and they change me as I connect the dots between them.

As a practice and a philosophy, yoga touches everything in my life. I study tantric yoga, a spiritual philosophy based on the idea that all things contain a spark of the divine. I started practicing vinyasa and hatha yoga casually as a teenager, and over the course of more than a decade, it became central to my life. I encountered kundalini yoga when in my late 20s while acquiring my Masters in Social Work. The practice of kundalini yoga turned 20 years of struggle with anxiety and depression on their head. I found I was able to manage the intensity of my experience in a way I’d never considered possible.

In 2017, after finishing my graduate work, I had the privilege of studying with Kia Miller and receiving my 200-hour Yoga Alliance certificate to teach kundalini and vinyasa yoga. I then explored teaching horsemanship aligned with yogic philosophy and practice, while working with Dr. Mickey Sperlich as a research assistant at University at Buffalo. I use my life experience, studies, and training in my work as a transformation doula. I lead a truly Page | 127

extraordinary program where I help people tap into their extraordinary nature by shaking off what’s held them back, and becoming more themselves.

She believes soundly that Historic Preservation should never be overlooked as a Economic Driver, but as a solid foundation of its existence.

As a Registered Nurse, her paranormal experiences with the after-life were enhanced working with gerontology and the death & dying stages of life. Later as the marketing manager of one of the most haunted inns in Florida, Seven Sister Inn, her curiosity for scientifically approaches were further intensified. She saw there was purpose for their messages.

Ellen Gans, Psychic Medium Rockford Office Complex 1777 Penfield Rd Penfield, NY 14526 https://ellengans.com ReadingsByEsg@gmail.com Facebook: @EllenGans34 Instagram: EllenGansPsychic When I was a child I told my mother her brother was mapping stars in heaven. I could see him at his desk with all his art supplies around him and his pipe in his mouth. I knew he was telling me about his job in heaven. He crossed over in 1965, I was 6 years old. This clairvoyant vision let me know that our Loved Ones are around us and can communicate with us. It is the foundation for my work with the Universe and Spirit, conveying messages and information to you.

Connecting to the Energies of the Soul is what I do. Bringing messages and information to you using words that offer comfort, healing and help answer questions. The metaphysical community has its own terminology that often times can be confusing and intimating to the everyday person. With that knowledge my approach is not to dazzle you. Instead I use everyday words that will connect to you. .

Janet Nohavec Church Services Sundays - 10:30am www.journeywithinnorth.org email - info@journeywithinnorth.org Welcome to our new Spiritualist Center. The Spiritualist message is one of life eternal and continuity of love between souls here and in the hereafter. It also is a religion and philosophy of life that is very inclusive and welcoming. Our connection to all living things and the nature that surrounds us holds lessons for each of us in this life. Above all, as the second principle states, we have a “Brotherhood and Sisterhood of Humanity.” As spiritually alive individuals with a deep commitment to God, may we not forget our commitment to small acts of kindness and service to one another. We as Spiritualists are confident that there is no death and there are no dead; we move onto a greater, new experience of life. As we begin this new center’s program we envision growth each year, to include more courses and retreats. We are also confident the weekly events of the church will grow as a local group of volunteers and workers evolves. Please send in your ideas and talents to be part of The Journey Within North. As we restore the Schoolhouse on Parker Road in Arcadia watch for details of that program as well. You are loved, never forget.
