Happy Valentines Day or Week!

How did Valentine's Day 2012 go? It is the Day of Love & I was so busy that no blog got done! The hormones and neurotransmitters in the brain are still working, though...
I read that most people are celebrating on the weekend, especially since this weekend is long due to presidents day weekend. So, I thought why not have a Valentine's Week this year!

Leo Full Moon

This is the night of the Leo Full Moon! Still roaring? The blowing snow has been for the last few days here in Colorado! It's all about the ego in the emotional realm. The Lion has a BIG ego- being the king of the jungle and all that... which tells us we can tame our ego now if we want to, or we can choose to be egotistical! More later...

2012- Year of the Water Dragon

Tomorrow is the Chinese New Year, The Year of the Water Dragon. See http://www.granthealthseminars.blogspot.com/ for a seminar on this special year!
Many people know how powerful this year (2012) is for our new intentions, the year of the dragon is always powerful for intention & manifestation- below, Suzanne Metzger relates how the dragon symbol is assisted by Feng Shui:

Dragons are known to have supernatural powers. They are the ultimate symbol of success and happiness. In China they represent the emperor and power. They move like lightening and are totally unpredictable. Like the Dragon, this year will be filled with drama, energy, and vitality that wasn't present last year. This is a Water year and the Dragon's natural abundance of the Wood element is fed by Water, which will increase the Dragon's natural strength and energy. The Water element will also add spirituality and intuition to the Dragon's power.
Meditation and other practices that unite you with Universal Oneness and strengthen your connection with all beings will soften the strong characteristics of the Dragon and help you to listen to the thoughts and opinions of others before making headstrong decisions.
On the economic level, we can expect improvement. However, it's important not to overspend, both personally and nationally, without careful consideration.
Before making important decisions that involve risk, take a deep breath, slow down and consider all of the possibilities carefully.
Dragons are sky creatures, related to heaven. They are known for bringing the attributes of Heaven to Earth. To access this power, visualize and focus on what you really want. This can help make even seemly unattainable dreams come true with dragon-like speed this year.
Dragons are also concerned with truth. If there's something you're holding back in your relationships, this is the time to open up and share your feelings and concerns rather than having them revealed suddenly without warning.
The Helpful People area of the Bagua symbolizes heaven in Feng Shui. Placing a Dragon in this area can help you to strengthen your relationship to the heavens and connect you more deeply to your spirituality.
To help you prepare for the Water Dragon
from a Feng Shui perspective:
* Clean your house before the 23rd. (Don't forget your stove!)
* Take care of neglected home repairs-or at least schedule them.
* Toss or fix anything broken or that's no longer used.
* Pay off old debts (or be clear and in communication about them).
The above actions will help you to release any
residual energy from last year--especially if
you've experienced loss or bad luck.
(Please note: If you can't complete these actions,
at least try to set them in motion.)
* Place a symbol that represents what you want to create for yourself on your front door. Traditional symbols are a fish for abundance, a dragon for power, and seeds or melons if you wish children. You can also create a personal symbol for whatever you are trying to manifest.
To strengthen this intention, also place a similar symbol in the area of the Bagua related to what you are trying to create. You'll get the best results if you focus on one important goal rather than several at once.
The days before the 23rd are an excellent time to begin or take even one small action toward anything you expect to begin before mid-April such as:
Beginning a new project or scheduling dates for future events.
Taking one or two steps toward handling your taxes.
Starting a new health regimen or fitness plan
Purchasing or selling expensive items
Hiring an employee
This will be a great year for people who are a bit flamboyant, dramatic, love social connection, and are attuned to the Dragon-and anyone who is willing to step into the energy!

Friday the 13th

The 1st Friday 13th of the new year-2012! This year there are 3 Friday the 13th's, which makes 2012 have triple luck! Are you feeling lucky? I sure am! Freya is the Norse goddess who Friday is named for, and 13 is her lucky number. Freya means Lady, as a fertility goddess, she is linked to the full moon. Furthermore, Cancer is her sign, and we are still in the energies of the Cancer full moon. It is said that when Freya cries, her tears turn to gold over the land & amber over the water, as they fall to the earth. Her necklace holds 4 stones of amber in gold, it is called the jewel whose power cannot be resisted- Brisingamen. Brising means fire- the fire of the enlightened mind, men means jewel. The winter constellation, Orion was called "Freya's Gown" by the Norse, the stars of Orion's belt is her girdle, or her crown, depending on the source of the legend- these are ancient legends. She rides a chariot drawn by blue cats given to her by Thor and takes fallen warriors to her palace in Valhalla. She is a goddess of beauty, truth, love, fertility and wealth. That's Lucky! She is the patroness of those women who attain wisdom, status, and power, since the Valkyries had been first ordinary women, then priestesses, and after being Valkyr became Norns, the Great Goddesses who weave the fates & histories of people and nations. Freya is the "Daughter of Time", who is also a patron and protectress of the human race.

1st Full Moon of 2012

The 1st Full Moon of 2012 is in the sign of Cancer. It was very big and yellow tonight. It is called the Wolf Moon. The wolves may be at the door most years at this time of year, due to the snow and cold, but this year, there have been record warm temperatures here in Colorado. The snow on the ski slopes in the moutains is minimal so far, this year. The wolves may be howling at the moon, but the cold is not biting, making them not so hungry as there is plenty of food for them outside. The squirrels and other small animals are still scurrying around.

Major Meteor Showers of 2012

Major Meteor Showers (2012)

Quadrantids
Comet of Origin: 2003 EH1 Radiant: constellation Bootes Active: Dec. 28, 2011-Jan. 12, 2012 Peak Activity: Jan. 4, 2012 Peak Activity Meteor Count: 120 meteors per hour Meteor Velocity: 25.5 miles (41 kilometers) per second
Notes: A waxing gibbous moon will set at about 3 a.m. local time, allowing for several dark-sky hours of observing before dawn. This shower has a very sharp peak, usually only lasting a few hours, and is often obscured by winter weather. The alternate name for the Quadrantids is the Bootids. Constellation Quadrant Murales is now defunct, and the meteors appear to radiate from the modern constellation Bootes.
Lyrids
Comet of Origin: C/1861 G1 Thatcher Radiant: constellation Lyra Active: April 16-25, 2012 Peak Activity: April 21-22, 2012 Peak Activity Meteor Count: 10-20 meteors per hour Meteor Velocity: 30 miles (49 kilometers) per second
Notes: A new moon on April 21 guarantees a dark sky in the late night and early morning hours, making this year ideal for observing from 10 p.m. to dawn. Lyrid meteors often produce luminous dust trains observable for several seconds.
Eta Aquarids
Comet of Origin: 1P Halley
Radiant: constellation Aquarius Active: April 19-May 28, 2012 Peak Activity: May 5-6, 2012 Peak Activity Meteor Count: 10 meteors per hour Meteor Velocity: 44 miles (66 kilometers) per second
Note: While the shower peaks an hour or two before dawn, the year's closest and largest full moon will be out all night, resulting in a moonlit sky that will wash out all but the brightest meteors. Meteor watchers in the Southern Hemisphere stand the best chance of seeing any meteors.
Delta Aquarids
Comet of Origin: unknown, 96P Machholz suspected Radiant: constellation Aquarius Active: July 12-Aug. 23, 2012 Peak Activity: July 28-29, 2012 Peak Activity Meteor Count: Approximately 20 meteors per hour Meteor Velocity: 25 miles (41 kilometers) per second
Notes: It's not a good year for the Delta Aquarids -- light from the August full moon make them nearly impossible to see.
Perseids
Comet of Origin: 109P/Swift-Tuttle Radiant: constellation Perseus Active: July 17-Aug. 24, 2012 Peak Activity: Aug. 12, 2012 Peak Activity Meteor Count: Approximately 100 meteors per hour Meteor Velocity: 37 miles (59 kilometers) per second
Notes: Moonlight won't be as big a problem as last year, as its waning crescent won't rise until after midnight, and the shower peaks from about 10-11 p.m. local on the night of Aug. 12.
Orionids
Comet of Origin: 1P/Halley Radiant: Just to the north of constellation Orion's bright star Betelgeuse Active: Oct. 2-Nov. 7, 2012 Peak Activity: Oct. 21, 2012 Peak Activity Meteor Count: Approximately 25 meteors per hour Meteor Velocity: 41 miles (66 kilometers) per second
Note: With the second-fastest entry velocity of the annual meteor showers, meteors from the Orionids produce yellow and green colors and have been known to produce an odd fireball from time to time.
Leonids
Comet of Origin: 55P/Tempel-Tuttle Radiant: constellation Leo Active: Nov. 6-30, 2012 Peak Activity: Night of Nov. 17, 2012 Peak Activity Meteor Count: Approximately 15 per hour Meteor Velocity: 44 miles (71 kilometers) per second
Note: The Leonids have not only produced some of the best meteor showers in history, but they have sometimes achieved the status of meteor storm. During a Leonid meteor storm, many thousands of meteors per hour can shoot across the sky. Scientists believe these storms recur in cycles of about 33 years, though the reason is unknown. The last documented Leonid meteor storm occurred in 2002.
Geminids
Comet of Origin: 3200 Phaethon Radiant: constellation Gemini Active: Dec. 4-17, 2012 Peak Activity: Dec. 13-14, 2012 Peak Activity Meteor Count: Approximately 120 meteors per hour Meteor Velocity: 22 miles (35 kilometers) per second
Note: The Geminids are typically one of the best, and most reliable, of the annual meteor showers. This year's peak falls perfectly with a new moon, guaranteeing a dark sky for the show in the nights on either side of the peak date. This shower is considered one of the best opportunities for younger viewers because the show gets going around 9 or 10 p.m.

Happy New Year!

Happy 2012! This is THE YEAR we all have been waiting for! Yes, we have been waiting for EONS! The Mayan Calendar, which was discovered in the ruins of the Mayan Pyramids of Mexico in the 60's is the impetus for this year, leading up to 12-21-12, when the Mayan Calendar ends. This, then is thought to be the end of the world, since the Mayans could not fit anything else on this megolith stone tablet! Of course, it is NOT the end of the world, but the beginning of a much BETTER world for us all! We are free of the Mayan Calendar on 12-21-12, and the next type of timekeeping will be much improved.

Even the Gregorian Calendar, which is what the world uses now, will be upgraded, and refined for the betterment of all the world. The Gregorian Calendar was decreed by Pope Gregory in 1582 because the Julian Calendar had drifted out of sync 10 days. The Gregorian calendar is so precise in tracking the solar year is is only off 26 seconds per year, it takes 3,323 years for the calendar to drift one day.
The deficiency of the Gregorian Calendar is that it is only tracking time from a solar perspective and has very little regard for any other cycles and seasons. This is evident when we consider our current calendric system arbitrarily begins on January 1 each year, which is 2 weeks after the winter solstice so it is not directly connected to a solar gateway. By creating a calendar that tracks the solar cycle it has the effect of fixating our consciousness on a very linear reality including the added benefit of connecting it to commerce as well…like when to pay taxes. The end result is a calendar that is a series of numbers in months of varying numbers of days that tell us what time it is in a primarily linear fashion.

We currently are not only linear people, we are now multidimensional beings, therefore it is fundamental that our calendric system be again upgraded to include the solar cycle, as well as other important cycles. Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas in 2011! This year has been full of Blessings that I am very grateful for~ the fact that we live free in the USA is high on the list! I am also very grateful for family, friends, health and wealth! The gifts given at this time of year are the symbols of appreciation for the present (time). Even though these seem to be hard times, the feelings of being blessed, loved and appreciated are accepted with the greatest gratitude, and are timeless!

Christmas Eve

Here we are at Christmas Eve already! The New Moon in Capricorn tonight is very auspicious for powerful intentions and manifestations to move out of this "old" year into the new year, smoothly, easily and effortless! Any new moon is great, but this one is especially spectacular because Santa is coming (even now he is being tracked by radar at NORAD) and we are all getting gifts. The present is always the gift we recieve...

Happy Winter Solstice

Tonight is the Winter Solstice! Also known to be the longest night of the year in the northern hemisphere, longest day of the year in the southern hemisphere. We have a long, cold, snowy night here in Colorado. Happy Solstice to all and to all a good night! Time to snuggle inside and hibernate until tomorrow...

The Geminids & Mercury Direct

Today, the Geminids are in the night sky, and Mercury goes direct, after being retrograde for 3 weeks. The meteors from the Geminid shower are slow moving in December and peak on Dec 13-14, with the highest intensity in the early morning of Dec 14. This shower seems to be intensifying every year and recent showers have 120–160 meteors/hour with optimal conditions, around 2am to 3am local time. Geminids were first observed only 150 years ago, much more recently than other showers such as the Perseids and Leonids. In those days, the Geminid meteor showers, arriving so close to Christmas, were revered by people as signs of peace and the prophecy of rebirth, some thought the Geminids brought fear, representing cleansing the human experience by our creator. With Mercury going direct and forward, maybe there was some Mercurial technique of how we have always been and continue to be "guided to our Soul," since Mercury, or Hermes, is known as "The Guide of Souls." Also known as the "Divine Trickster" giving the ability to coordinate, organize, put things together, understand the whole and the parts, seeing the process and the larger cycles of life. The better to see what is really important during this season!

Full Moon, Lunar Eclipse

Early today was the last Full Moon Lunar Eclipse of the year! It is said to be a powerful one. The Moon looked vey large again.

Happy Thanksgiving

A very happy Thanksgiving to all of USA! This is an important day in the overall scene of life as we know it. Gratitude comes before anything else. If we are not grateful for what we have already, how or why can we wish for more?

Mercury Retrograde

This is the last Mercury Retrograde of this year! Starting today, just in time to retrograde back to our families for Thanksgiving! It is a hit for Thanksgiving, but also a miss for the biggest shopping day of the year- Black Friday. Remember- buy no electronics, and travel safely.

11-11-11

Today is Veterans Day, as well as 11-11-11- a day we have all been waiting for, at least for a century!

Veterans Day is the anniversary of the ending of World War I. It ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month. It was intended to end all wars! We remember and honor all those who served in all wars.

Standard Time

Finally off the daylight saving time schedule! It really throws us all off for over half the year, every year. I find that the older I get, the harder it is to recover from these ridiculous time changes. When are we ever going to get back to the REAL time? Our body clock knows what the real time is, otherwise we would really be lost in time/space. Yes, next we will be changing space with time/space travel...

Snowstorm to sunshine

From the Colorado snowstorm to the Florida sunshine again! I love the changes of weather, just had to pack for several seasons. It was great to get out of the snow... We will see plenty of it later in the season. With Halloween over, past the turning of the leaves on the trees, we can look forward to the Holiday months. I have my Christmas list, do you?

11-1-11

11-1-11 is All Saints Day! When all the saints come marching in... maybe with the snow, which is also marching in today here in Colorado. Honoring the saints who came before us is to honor ourselves & even to aspire to being saints!

Happy Halloween

Spooky night it is tonight! BOO! The weather has been great here for the little trick or treaters! Usually it snows, but we had that last week. Sorry for the people in the northeast, who got a terribe snowstorm and since power lines were down, they had to cancel all the Halloween activities. Maybe they will have them next week. I love links to the past NASA Halloween images and the history of All Hallow's Eve. Here is something different for Halloween from Molly Hall Astrology:

After leading tours through the town promoted as "America's Most Haunted City" for a few years, I've heard, and occasionally seen first-hand, all the ways that spirits make their presence known. Using some of the well-known ghost stories of Savannah, GA, along with some imaginative "specter-lation," here's a breakdown of ghosts by their Sun signs, and their likely haunting style.
Aries Don't stand too close to the fire with an Aries specter afoot. Beastly faces appear in the flames, and a random flame singes off your eyebrows. Candles are mysteriously blown out, only to be re-lit moments later, the smoke still rising off the wicks. This ghost asserts dominance, won't want to peacefully co-habitate with the living, and is not easily appeased.
Taurus With the memory of its earthly earthiness, this ghost makes tree branches reach out and grab you, or ground roots wrap firmly around your ankles. One trick is making the ground sink under you, absorbing your body into the landscape. Taurus ghosts send all kinds of smells wafting through the air, for good and ill. While some use this as a weapon, to chase you away, others send a comforting message. One of my friends smells apple pie baking from time to time in her apartment, for example.
Gemini With the Gemini ghost, listen for disembodied voices, perhaps with pieces of a tragic story to tell. This specter might etch letters on the wall, as one ghost in Savannah did, on the brick chimney. The letters were SCR NW -- can you guess the message? Always eager to communicate, this ghost will ring the phone, only to lose their nerve when the living pick up. They'll also be just as frightened of the embodied, as you are of them!
Cancer At the four-star Kehoe House B & B in Savannah, a motherly ghost will tuck you in at night, or give you a Goodnight kiss. The Cancer ghost has a sentimental streak and may have emotional ups and downs. Here's the one that sobs at night, or has a fit of the giggles under a full Moon. Children can easily see this specter's moony face, which has a bluish glow. This ghost gives great hugs.
Leo At the Marshall House, a Union officer greets hotel guests in the lobby, dressed in full regalia. A Leo ghost will wear the adornments and high fashion of his or her era. They'll also appear in their prime, as if frozen at their peak in life. One theory is that ghosts show images through telepathy, and a Leo ghost goes the extra mile for good PR. Such a regal spirit being shows up at holiday and birthday parties, galas, and the monster mash.
Virgo During Sherman's occupation of Savannah, the Marshall House was a hospital for the Union army. And guests say there's a nurse still making her rounds, pressing her hand firmly across the forehead to take soldiers' temperatures. The Virgo ghost haunts the workplace, just trying to carry on with their duties. One former bank employee of 30 years, still opens the vault doors of the safe, but only for those that follow procedure to the letter! The helpful Virgo apparition returns small missing items so your day will flow better.
Libra At the Owens-Thomas house, "The Horseman" walks through walls, and strikes a pose by the fireplace. Seen by three men at a cocktail party once, all remarked on his dashing looks and mid 19th-century riding finery. The Libra ghost may appear as a luminous being, and likely hovers above the ground. Listen for the sound of clinking glasses, as with toasting, or that of a distant pianoforte, as Libra knows how to entertain in the afterlife.
Scorpio There are Western medieval legends of demons that come in the night with one lusty goal in mind. The incubus (male) and succubus (female) took hold in the imaginations of those obsessed with sex as sinful. The evolved Scorpio spirit would never overtake another psychically. But a disturbed one potentially has the power to do all kinds of dastardly deeds. Some might end up as energy vampires, preying on those with weak auras. A compassionate one warns living friends of hidden dangers, or helps solve a mystery by dropping clues on the path.
Sagittarius This playful apparition has a way with animals, especially horses. Dogs and cats following air around the room are watching the antics of the Sagittarian spirit. Sagittarius is truly the "friendly ghost," striking up an immediate rapport with the living, and causing minimal fright. This ghost travels through time, curious about other cultures and eras. If a random spirit goes through a wormhole, and shows up on the other side of the world, it's likely a Sadge.
Capricorn The Capricorn ghost may not do his own haunting, but assign this task to underlings. At the Dresser-Palmer House, one woman woke to see white-capped maids from another era, who sternly asked her to leave this instant. "Mr. Palmer is very angry with you!" they said. The ghost of the prosperious, authoritative Mr. Palmer had spectral staff to do his bidding! Listen for the sound of gold coins being counted, like at the Olde Pink House, circa 1771, and perhaps it's the worldly weath of an otherwordly Capricorn.
Aquarius When a streetlight flickers on and off in Savannah, it's not blamed on bad wiring -- a ghost is saying hello! Aquarius ghosts use electricity more than most, sending elevators up and down with phantom riders, and blinding people with a sudden high-wattage beam. At the Juliette Gordon Low birthplace (founder of the Girl Scouts), staff has constant trouble with adding machines and computers turning on and off. Some ghosts love technology, and maybe they're just curious about these newfangled devices.
Pisces An etheric being in life, the Pisces ghost has a shimmery glow, along with exquisite celestial sound effects. Some jump up and down to be guardian angels, making their presence known in subtle, loving ways. The face in the water is definitely a Pisces apparition, along with illusory morphing of your own reflection in the mirror or a window. Here's the ghost that steps out of your dreams and into your bedroom, that presence at the foot of the bed. A playful Pisces ghost enjoys sculpting clouds into animals or words, messages meant to enchant, not frighten.

The Mayan Calendar Ends

Today is the day, according to some Mayan experts, that the Mayan Calendar ends. Is this the end of the world? Some think so. Carl Callemen is the main expert who thinks this is true. He has been writing about it for years. The Mayans, themselves don't think so, however.

New Moon Coming!

Yes, the new Moon in Scorpio is rapidly approaching! This smart, sexy sign of the autumn! My own mom is a Scorpio, so birthday time for her!

Orionid Meteor Shower

The Orionids are here! The meteors have been visible since last night in the northern hemisphere. They are derived from their radiant, near the constellation, Orion (one of my favorites). The belt of Orion constellation is made up of 3 stars which exactly line up with the 3 pyramids of Giza, as well as other pyramids in the Mayan ruins.

WEEKEND METEOR SHOWER: The Orionid meteor shower peak on Saturday, Oct. 22nd, when Earth passed through a stream of debris from Halley's comet. As many as 26 meteors per hour are visible from rural areas, according to the International Meteor Organization.

Autumn Equinox

On the Autumn Equinox, Night is equal to Day, Dark is equal to Light= BALANCE! It is always very interesting to me that every year at this time, the Sun is in the sign of Libra, the BALANCED Scales! The balanced scales of Justice, for example, stiking the right balance for the highest good of everyone involved. The ancients really knew what they were doing! Yes, we have technology and education, etc but they had the stars, sun, moon, planets, nature and each other to keep them balanced, in peace, harmony & fairness, always moving forward. At this equinox, the sun rises directly in the east and sets directly in the west (equal). In the northern hemisphere, before the autumn equinox, the sun begins to rise and set more and more to the north, and afterward, it begins to rise and set more and more to the south. The Autumn Equinox begins at 00 Libra, a time souls seek balance. This equinox solar affect may produce a reduction in the magnetic field of the Earth, providing easier access to other dimensions beginning around 24 hours prior, and ending around 24 hours following the exact Equinox time. The ancients taught that doorways or thresholds into the mysteries are more easily accessed during the equinoxes and when we consciously engage this timing we are taking advantage of the opportunity to further activate our own experience of these sacred timings and what they have to offer us. This is a great time to be on the land, in a power spot that calls to you, whether that is in a forest, near a body of water, on a mountain, in a sacred site or in your back yard. What is important is to create the time and space that supports a direct experience of the mysteries that are ready to reveal themselves to you.

Full Moon, Harvest Moon

This full moon is the Harvest Moon- it casts enough light for farmers to do their work late into the night. Above, Lady Liberty also works by the light of the full moon! This picture is celebrating two Goddesses- Liberty and Luna! The full moon closest to the Autumn Equinox is called the Harvest Moon, because all harvesting is usually done by the equinox, getting the earth ready for resting in fall and winter. This harvest moon is very close and bright! It was really bright for my night drive to Denver- showing me the way! This time of year is perfect for moon-watching. We watch the moon, as well as the moon watching over us...

9-11

New 911 Memorial

Prayers for 9-11 have been written & repeated every year now for 10 years. This decade has been the decade of pain, mourning and grief.
Today, the mayor and president will not even allow prayers to be said at the 10th Anniversary of 9-11! Also, they have limited gratitude or remembrance of the 400 firefighters and police officers that were killed while saving others. This has been called a clergy ban, or religion ban by some in the media. That's too bad, many religious leaders of many faiths have stood at ground zero and wept while saying prayers, including the Pope. We Americans are a faithful people- this ban is an unspeakable injustice to us all!
Ground Zero is only a zero to the politicians; it is Hero Ground to all of us Americans who felt and still feel today the stinging pain of an incalculable loss- the loss of thousands of innocent people, as well as hundreds of rescuers- our Heros of 9-11.
"Monitor your thoughts, for they become your words. Monitor your words, for they become your actions. Monitor your actions, for they become your habits. Monitor your habits, for they become your character. Monitor your character, for it becomes your destiny."
Photos from 9/11

Labor Day in the USA

How is your Labor Day? Mine is always a Labor of Love... working in the garden, around the house, on relationships, or on myself! Out of the office for a day doesn't equal out of touch. Labor Day in the USA usually means catch-up time for most of us, especially with almost everyone taking their work home with them, or carrying the virtual office at all times to plug in anytime! Love the extra time to do whatever, though it is still not enough time!

New Moon

August New Moon always changes everything! This one tonight is in Virgo. We all will appreciate the way we grow younger at this new moon and try new things again, those same things that maybe we tried in our younger years, or possibly brand new ideas from this current period of time. Of course, Virgo is timeless- so we are as well right now!

Hurricane East, Earthquake West

Weather is the only news, it seems. Hurricane Irene traveling up the east coast, and in California, another earthquake- and along that same latitude- 37

The people on both coasts are used to these earth changes, but it is still mind boggling. These will be cleansing, so there can be new beginnings, but very difficult to get through to that point. Stay safe, stay aware, stay away from the fury, until it is over and all is well again.

Earthquakes, Earth Changes

Another earthquake in CA, on NV border, again on the same latitude! We now have east, midwest and west earthquakes along the same latitude bisecting the USA. The Japan earthquake was also along this latitude. I do not know what this means, if anything, but it sure is strange...

Earthquakes & Hurricanes

Last night, an earthquake in Colorado, which was the strongest in over 40 years! Today, another in Virginia, the strongest since the 18oo's! Both about the same latitude, but different longitudes. Serious events happening on our Mother Earth right now.
*See the USGS IRIS Earthquake Monitor at the lower right of this blog for updates anytime.*
Now, we hear about hurricane Irene coming up the east coast- where it lands, nobody knows. Weather experts can only guess, people can only watch and prepare to evacuate! Stay tuned and pay attention!

Full Moon, Meteor Shower, Mercury Retrodrade, Oh My!

This Full Moon is the Aquarius, Red Moon, the Meteor Shower is the Perseids, the Mercury Retrograde is in Mars! Some assortment! Our emotions are all over the board, as well as our physical well being! Look to the tried and true to unwind, or risk of overwhelm is, well, overwhelming.

Vacation or Staycation?

Which do you prefer- vacation or staycation? I am currently on vacation, I vacated my city and traveled to another to visit and see the sights (in Florida). I am also attending a fun party and going to theme parks and the beach! Most of my time off, however, I must admit is spent on staycation. Staying home in my house or staying within my own city. My staycations are usually filled with activities, but sometimes I just have a spa day at home. You know, stay in bed all morning, get a massage, go out for brunch or lunch (depending on how long I sleep), do some gardening, or other at home creative project. Have time for friends that I hardly ever see anymore, visit family, or just run errands that have been on my list forever...

Last of July already?

I can't believe it is the last of July! Where has this year gone? Where has the summer gone? Everyone is getting ready for school starting already! I say, let's enjoy the rest of summer and not rush the fall- it will be here soon enough. Watching the clouds go by, going to the beach or swimming pool, letting the mad rush pass by you, sitting on the porch, drinking lemonade, watching the world go by- whatever lets you slow down and savor the summertime! More living in the moment of time, rather than letting time run away from us- time is just an illusion, anyway...

Summer Vacations

Back from the mountains, ready for the beach! In between I will be moving my office location... not exactly what I would call a vacation, but I am excited to be moving forward and upgrading! Lots of happenings for everyone after the summer eclipses changed everything. What is changing in your life? New job, new baby, new relationship, new business, new ideas, new residence- or like me, new office? I will also be developing new seminars for depressed, anxious & bipolar sufferers- part of the new ideas!
Take some time out for yourself, a true vacation for R&R before the fall starts up again with school, work and other responsibilities close at your heels. REALLY relax this time, it may be the last time for a long time, as time itself is moving ever faster into the future- get ready for 2012!

Independence Day in the USA!

This is Independence Day in the USA, 4th of July Celebration! Happy 4th! Freedom & Liberty are the order of the day! Fireworks, Family, Food, Fun and Friends are the Focus of today!

Summer Solar Eclipse

This, the 3rd Summer Eclipse, is a Solar one, during a New Moon, so ALL new experienes of our choosing~ made to order from the universe are coming our way! Choose wisely, for this choice will be with you for a few years...
What you choose depends on what your choices were in the past- either pain, misery and procrastination or life, love and happiness based on our all important attitude. Either these change suddenly with this eclipse into the best one, or live with the consequences of the bad one for a very long time. Either regression or progression- which will it be?

Summer Solstice

Tonight is Summer Solstice! The next 90 days (13 weeks) will be the manifestation of your dreams or the consequences of your actions! Depending on your state of being these last 90 days... you have already made the choice.

Tonight is the shortest night of the year, longest day of the year- in the northern hemisphere. It is exactly opposite in the southern hemisphere. This relates directly to the opposite hemispheres in our brain- totally balanced today!

To the Native Americans the solstice is the marriage of the Sky and the Earth. A festival of light. Bonfires are lit to celebrate the Sun at its height of power and to ask the Sun not to withdraw into darkness. It is time to reflect on the growth of the year. Seeds planted in the Earth as well as within our own our souls.

Whatever you dream tonight will come true! See what happens...

Happy Father's Day

AngeLady Laurie Grant wishes Happy Father's Day to all the fathers who lovingly raise children like a well tended flower garden, not just letting them grow up like a patch of weeds!

Full Moon, Lunar Eclipse

"The longest lunar eclipse in more than a decade turned the moon blood red, yielding a rare visual treat for stargazers across a large swathe of the planet from Australia to Europe" Physorg.com
It was a great BIG yellow full moon seen from the USA- beautiful!

Eclipse Eve

This is the Eclipse Eve of the 2nd eclipse in the trio of eclipses of this summer. The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse. Now we pay closer attention to our dreams, sleeping as well as waking. What are waking dreams? The ones that wake us up to feel inspired suddenly out of the blue. Eclipses do that- suddenly change things, inspire ideas, spark the fire into life- our life! As most Lunar Eclipses, this one clears things out of our lives, and clears up ambiguity- especially in our past (Moon). Then, this new opening can automatically attract ideal circumstances, people, employment and many other things so that we can develop better skills to help us deal with the next eclipse of the sun!

New Moon Solar Eclipse

This is the New Moon, Solar Eclipse in Gemini. It is a time of fresh, new inspiration, new seeding of ideas while enjoying the ageless, timeless part of our Divinity. A time to be in peaceful balance, out with the old, in with the new-balanced with make new friends, but keep the old, one is silver and the other is gold.

Memorial Day

Happy Memorial Day! May we always remember the ultimate and so final sacrifice our soldier heros have made for Americans to have our Freedom, Liberty, Honor & Justice!

A SOLDIER DIED TODAY

Originally Titled, "JUST A COMMON SOLDIER"

by A. Lawrence Vaincourt

©1985

He was getting old and paunchy and his hair was falling fast,

And he sat around the Legion, telling stories of the past

Of a war that he had fought in and the deeds that he had done,

In his exploits with his buddies; they were heroes, every one.

And tho' sometimes, to his neighbors, his tales became a joke,

All his Legion buddies listened, for they knew whereof he spoke.

But we'll hear his tales no longer for old Bill has passed away,

And the world's a little poorer, for a soldier died today.

He will not be mourned by many, just his children and his wife,

For he lived an ordinary and quite uneventful life.

Held a job and raised a family, quietly going his own way,

And the world won't note his passing, though a soldier died today.

When politicians leave this earth, their bodies lie in state,

While thousands note their passing and proclaim that they were great.

Papers tell their whole life stories, from the time that they were young,

But the passing of a soldier goes unnoticed and unsung.

Is the greatest contribution to the welfare of our land

A guy who breaks his promises and cons his fellow man?

Or the ordinary fellow who, in times of war and strife,

Goes off to serve his Country and offers up his life?

A politician's stipend and the style in which he lives

Are sometimes disproportionate to the service that he gives.

While the ordinary soldier, who offered up his all,

Is paid off with a medal and perhaps, a pension small.

It's so easy to forget them for it was so long ago,

That the old Bills of our Country went to battle, but we know

It was not the politicians, with their compromise and ploys,

Who won for us the freedom that our Country now enjoys.

Should you find yourself in danger, with your enemies at hand,

Would you want a politician with his ever-shifting stand?

Or would you prefer a soldier, who has sworn to defend

His home, his kin and Country and would fight until the end?

He was just a common soldier and his ranks are growing thin,

But his presence should remind us we may need his like again.

For when countries are in conflict, then we find the soldier's part

Is to clean up all the troubles that the politicians start.

If we cannot do him honor while he's here to hear the praise,

Then at least let's give him homage at the ending of his days.

Perhaps just a simple headline in a paper that would say,

Our Country is in mourning, for a soldier died today.

Enjoy today and Thank a Veteran/Soldier! They are responsible for the many freedoms we have in our great country, USA! That is why we memorialize these Heros on Memorial Day. Go to a National Cemetery and notice the headstones- most of our Warriors who gave their life were very young, notice that they also teach us about time, and timelessness!

Eclipses of the Summer

Eclipse Season is here! These eclipses are the Eclipses of the Summer. There are usually two pairs of eclipses in each year, with two eclipses in each pair. This summer brings three eclipses:
Solar eclipse June 1st ~Good
Lunar eclipse June 15th ~Better
Solar eclipse July 1st ~Best
Fun, Fun, Fun!

Each one brings changes into our lives, each has different ways and means. The astronomy, astrology, science & spirit of eclipses are well known throughout the ages. The New Moon Solar Eclipse of June 1 will bring truthfulness to light and shine like a laser beam on new things in your life, this is good. Then the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse of June 15 will bring sudden endings, this better. The July 1st Eclipse will be a more difficult one, but will bring the Best rewards, which is the end of this round of eclipses. Save the best for last!

Springtime in the Rockies

The Ski slopes are opening up fo the weekends, since we have so much snow! We can go skiing on Memorial Day weekend this year! I do remember years were we went skiing on the 4th of July! This is what Springtime in the Rockies is all about! Let it snow!

No Doomsday, No Rapture

No doomsday or rapture yet... we are all still here! It is true that NO ONE knows the day or the time of the end of this world, or even the end of our own life, let alone anyone else's. The good preacher who wrongfully predicted this day as the end of days, is also still here- so far. Personally, I don't look to others for prophecy, since I have enough intuition to make my own prophecies, if I were so inclined- as do we all. It takes intense focus & concentration to be in touch with your inner self and your Highest Good or God. Not very many people want to have that level of focus from what I can tell. Most people don't even have the desire to attain the focus. Intuition is a natural ability, and is also a natural investment, and needs to be practiced, perfected, protected and tested often. The rewards are great, as in living life to the full, instead of predicting death to the world.

Medicines of Light

We have all been talking more about our water, how to get it purified of toxins, use for protection and healing, etc. Here is a blog by Tom Kenyon about this same subject. Reiki Masters and other Healers have been aware of Medicines of Light for awhile, but the majority of people have never heard of this. It is indeed our birthright as Human Beings to use water in healing; consider Holy Water used in Sacred Rituals...
Some would sell you expensive purifiers and "alkalizing machines" which I have NO COMMENT about. Just know you have this method within you always and forever!
~Laurie

Medicines of Light: Protection and Healing from Radiation Poisoning, Neurotoxins, Bacteria and Viruses. from the Hathors of Venus via Tom Kenyon posted 3/16/11 With the earthquake in New Zealand, followed by the earthquake in Japan, it is clear that you have entered a more complex phase of the Chaotic Node. We wish to impart a method for protection and healing from radiation poisoning as well as other physical conditions. We call this Medicines of Light.This is obviously related to current events unfolding in Japan, however, as future earth changes unfold, you may face similar challenges in your near future from other locations around the world. This method will assist you to both protect and heal yourself from exposure, not only to radioactivity, but also to neurotoxins and to mutating forms of bacteria and viruses. From our perspective you can expect to see an increase of these in your near timeline. The method involves connecting to your Celestial Soul, the BA. This action is to connect to the realms of light that are a part of your being. Everything that exists in your cosmos can be viewed as a qualification or energetic expression of light-even your densest forms of matter are essentially a form of light. In this method you connect to your Celestial Soul, holding the intent and expectation that it will impart to you an energetic that protects and/or heals you. You send this intent to your Celestial Soul with the emotional vibration of appreciation or gratitude. This is simply the vibrational resonance that activates this higher aspect of your being. Once you send this intent conjoined with appreciation or gratitude to your BA, you shift your awareness into your heart chakra, receiving the energetic of healing or protection into the heart chakra. You might experience this energetic as a form of light, or as geometric patterns, or you may feel the sensation of a descent of energy. You may also experience this energetic simply as a thought/feeling. Once the energetic is received in the heart chakra, it is ready to send. For this phase you will need some pure water, since water holds this type of information extremely well. Holding a container of water in your hands, through intent, you send this energy that is in the heart chakra down the arms into the hands and through the chakras that are in the center of each palm. The energetic enters the water through this pathway. We suggest you amplify this energetic by repeating the procedure three times, for a total of three times-two more times in addition to the first. You then drink the water. The water permeates the water element of your body, and the healing and protective qualities eventually enter every cell. Through this action you are qualifying light, causing it to descend through the central pathway of your body into your heart and sending it into the water element. The consciousness of the water receives this energetic, and when you drink it, the body receives it. If you find yourself in a situation where you have been exposed to radioactivity you would engage this procedure as we have described it, qualifying the energy that descends from the BA to protect and heal you from any possibility of radiation poisoning. If you have other means to protect yourself, you should obviously engage these as well, but even if you are left with nothing but the tools of your own consciousness, you can protect and heal yourself. If you have been exposed to neurotoxins you would do the same. If you are in the midst of an epidemic that involves bacterial or viral infections, we advise you to do the same. As you collectively enter more deeply into this more complex and intense phase of the Chaotic Node, bacteria and viruses will mutate faster. This method will allow you to protect and heal yourself from these mutating life forms. It is important to understand that you are creating the protection and healing through the powers of your own consciousness. You have direct access to your own light realms. You have the sovereign right to engage the light realms on your own behalf and on the behalf of your loved ones. If you find yourself in one of these difficult situations we have described, we suggest you take the Medicine of Light-which is the water that you have charged-several times a day, as your intuition guides you. The physical ramifications of the earthquake activity in Japan and the resulting tsunami are very difficult to deal with. But we wish to shift our attention from the physical to the mental, emotional, and spiritual effects created by such a disaster, Due to the fact that you are in a Chaotic Node and energies from deep space conjoined with solar flare activity are affecting your energy bodies, you, as a collective, are more affected. What we mean by this is that witnessing the suffering of your fellow humans shatters the heart. There is a recognition that their predicament could easily be yours. This recognition can create an opening in your heart, and it is through the heart-your heart-that higher states of consciousness are realized, and so the earthquake in Japan is, in many ways, an earthquake of the collective heart. The times before you are not easy. From our perspective, increased earth changes are upon you. But one result of such events is that you are shaken to your roots and the mass hypnosis pauses for a moment. And in such utter and surrealistic devastation, many of you see very clearly that your civilization rests on tenuous grounds. We mean this both literally and figuratively. And so our advice for this phase of the Chaotic Node is to learn and master the ability to create Medicines of Light for yourself, so that when the time arises, you know how to engage this power of protection and healing that you possess in your very nature. And we suggest you navigate through these times not only with your minds, but with your hearts-and let your hearts be touched, for it is through your hearts that you will ascend the spiral pathway to your own greatness. The HathorsMarch 16, 2011
Tom's Thoughts and ObservationsI have been channeling the Hathors for about twenty years now and started posting their Planetary Messages in February of 2003. And in all that time I have never sensed in them such an urgency to post one of their communications. Usually, I am given several days to dwell on and contemplate their messages before writing my comments. But that luxury does not exist in this moment. They have asked Judi and me to post this particular message as soon as possible, and so I will make my comments brief and to the point. The central message here is that all human beings have the ability to create what the Hathors call Medicines of Light. And this type of medicine has an inherent capability and potential to protect and heal us not only from radioactive poisoning, but also from the effects of neurotoxins, as well as bacterial and viral infections. The method is simple and to the point. Since some of you reading this may be new to the whole idea of a Celestial Soul (or BA), let me clarify its location and how to engage it. The BA, or Celestial Soul, is an aspect of your own consciousness that is outside the constraints of time and space. Some of you might refer to the Celestial Soul as the Higher Self. But whatever you call it, your Celestial Soul exists in what the Hathors call the light realms, and this aspect of you is engaged whenever you send it appreciation or gratitude. Your BA does not have a location in time and space since it is transcendent to both. But it does have an entry point to your energy field, which is about arm's distance above your head. If you were to raise your hands over your head and touch your fingertips together, your fingers would be in the vicinity of this entry point. And this is where you place your attention in the first phase of their method for creating a Medicine of Light. (Do note that placing of your hands above your head is only for orientation purposes. You do not actually put your hands over your head when creating the Medicines of Light). Once you place your awareness in the area of your BA point, you hold in your mind the qualification of light you wish to receive. Let's say, for example, that you have been, or will be, exposed to dangerous forms of radioactivity and are in danger of radiation poisoning. After focusing your attention on your BA point above your head, hold the intent that the energy that descends from your BA will be an energetic of healing and/or protection from radiation poisoning. You then send the feeling of appreciation or gratitude upward from your heart chakra to the BA point above your head-as you hold the intent or qualification that the energetic imparted to you from your BA will protect and/or heal you from radiation poisoning. Next you shift your attention from your BA point to your heart chakra (in the center of your chest beneath the sternum) and then wait to receive the energetic of protection and healing from your BA. Those of you new to this may need to send the intent or qualification along with the feeling of appreciation or gratitude to your BA several times before you notice a response. But just keep sending this intention joined with the feeling of appreciation or gratitude upward to your BA until you feel a descent of energy. When you feel the descent of energy from your Celestial Soul, shift your awareness to your heart chakra. Allow your heart center to receive this energetic of protection and healing. You then place your hands around or over a container of pure water and send this energetic received from your Celestial Soul into the water. The energetic of healing and/or protection that has entered your heart center will move down your arms and into the water through the two chakras that are in the center of the palm of each hand. Repeat this process for a total of three times. Then drink the water. If you are in a precarious situation, the Hathors advise that you create a Medicine of Light several times a day and drink it according to your intuition. As the Hathors point out, Medicines of Light have many more applications than just protection and healing from radiation poisoning. You can use these to protect and/or heal yourself from neurotoxins, as well as bacterial and viral infections. Although they did not mention it, I asked the Hathors after they gave this message if the method would work for other physical challenges such as cancer. And they said that Medicines of Light could most definitely be created in the same way to deal with this type of situation-as well as others. Obviously, if you are dealing with a serious situation such as radiation poisoning, exposure to neurotoxins, and/or epidemics of bacterial and viral infections, you will want to avail yourself of all medical remedies. In other words, this method is not meant to replace medical or public health solutions, but is meant to be an adjunct, something you can do yourself-for yourself. After giving their message, I asked the Hathors about making Medicines of Light for those who are unable to do it for themselves, like children and pets. They said that you would use the same method, except for the fact that you would qualify the intent for the child or animal you are going to give the Medicine to. For example, if you were creating a Medicine of Light to protect or heal yourself from radiation poisoning, you would send the thought that the energetic you are going to receive from your Celestial Soul is for your own personal protection or healing. If you were going to do this for a child or a pet, you would send the thought that the energetic you are going to receive from your Celestial Soul is for the protection or healing of the being you are going to give the Medicine to, i.e. your child or your pet. It is here that I would like to interject something. It is far better to teach someone how to create a Medicine of Light than to create a dependency. The ability to create Medicines of Light is an inherent ability in all human beings. It is part of our multidimensional legacy. And to empower someone to do this for him or her self is a service to his or her mastery. I would personally hate to see this method being used by "healers" to create Medicines of Light for others under the guise that they have some special powers that others do not. This method for creating Medicines of Light is a human birthright, and my feeling is that it should be shared with all persons. There is much that I would like to share about this simple method for creating Medicines of Light, but philosophical and metaphysical observations will have to wait for another time. The Hathors are insistent that we post this information and circulate it as quickly as is possible.

HAPPY EASTER!

Easter Blessings to ALL! The Easter Egg Hunt is always fun, the Easter Brunch delicious and the fellowship fantastic! I love the symbology of the empty tomb, Christ rising from the dead so we all can live fully and be with Him in Paradise when our living here is done!

Pyramids- Mayan

Pyramids are and always have been very important in the evolution of the consciousness of humanity. They are one of my favorite structures! Used for healing, preserving, and many other things, they are as ancient as it gets- as well as modern as it will be in the future! Here is great information on the Mayan Pyramids from the expert on the Mayan Calendar and Pyramids, Carl Johan Calleman from Sweden:

The Nine Underworlds of the Cosmos and their corresponding levels of Consciousness

According to ancient Mayan beliefs the Cosmos was made up by Nine Underworlds. This fundamental idea was expressed very powerfully through their most important pyramids, the Pyramid of the Plumed Serpent in Chichen-Itza, the Pyramid of the Jaguar in Tikal and the Temple of the Inscriptions in Palenque, which were all built with Nine different stories. Now where are these Nine Underworlds? the modern person may ask. Being currently unable to observe this aspect of reality people have in recent centuries for the most part tended to dismiss such ancient myths of different worlds as mere myths or fantasies. If we seek to dismiss the idea of the Nine Underworlds as a mere myth it however becomes difficult to dismiss such ancient myths of different worlds as mere myths or fantasies. If we seek to dismiss the idea of the Nine Underworlds as a mere myth it however becomes difficult to explain that the number Nine seems to have been regarded as a Holy number of fundamental importance in so many different cultures, cultures that certainly did not enjoy extensive contacts. Thus, in the Far East Nine-storied pagodas are commonly occurring, among the Jews there were Nine doors to the holiest part of the Temple and there are Nine arms of the Hanukkah candelabra. Among the Muslims the Holy month of Ramadan is the Ninth month of the year and in Viking mythology the Cosmos was described as being composed by Nine worlds. Thus people in different parts of the world all symbolically expressed the holiness of the number Nine. Maybe then there is some kind of universal truth underlying this number, some profound reason that it has independently in different cultures come to be considered as holy. When the Christian missionaries heard about the Nine Underworlds of the Maya they interpreted these as Hells, but this seems to be way off the mark. If these were Hells, or some locations below the surface of the earth as some have inferred, why then would the Mayan kings have climbed to the top of these supposed Hells to perform sacred rituals on the pyramids. Rather than a hierarchical structure of Hells the Mayan pyramids were viewed as World Mountains - symbols of the Cosmos. And since we ourselves are living in the Cosmos it thus seems more reasonable that the Underworlds are located right here in the physical world "Below" - where we ourselves are living our lives. Why then Nine Underworlds? Why not just one Underworld? To answer this we need to look at the longer cycles of time described by the Maya and see how these conform to the facts and datings for key steps in Cosmic evolution provided by modern science. We should then first note that similarly to the pyramids raised by the Maya their calendrical system is also hierarchical in nature, and in the Table above there are Nine different time cycles linked to the 360-day year, the tun. A sequence of Thirteen such time periods would then make up a creation cycle of Thirteen Heavens with the specified durations. Thus, each of the Nine Underworlds was created through a sequence of Thirteen Heavens. To exemplify, the longest of the tun-based time cycles was the hablatun of 460 800 000 000 days = 1.26 billion years. Thirteen such hablatuns makes up a creation cycle of a total duration of 13 x 1.26 = 16.4 billion years that created the lowest, the first Underworld. This is a curious finding since this time period, 16.4 billion years, is very close to the age of the universe, 15 billion years, the time when matter first emerged from light (Big Bang) The beginning of the creation of the First Underworld thus coincides well with the current best estimate of the beginning of Creation. This is a fact with very far-reaching consequences, since it means that all we today know to exist - all that has come into existence in the universe since the Big Bang - is included in the time span of the most basic of the creation cycles, the cycle of thirteen hablatuns, which creates the first of the Nine Underworlds. Mayan calendrics and the Mayan cosmology of Nine Underworlds and Thirteen Heavens is thus a tool for exploring all of creation! Upon this the most basic of the Nine Underworlds, are then built eight other Underworlds each carrying and developing a special frame of consciousness for the life that it creates. In this way a hierarchical nine-leveled structure is created where lower levels of consciousness provide the foundation for new and higher levels. Each of these nine creation cycles thus gives rise to a specific Underworld and each of these Underworlds is characterised by a certain frame, or dimension, of consciousness. This frame of consciousness is then created in a series of thirteen steps, through the sequential influence of Thirteen Heavens. The beginnings of these sequences of Thirteen Heavens are marked by crucial events in cosmic evolution such as we know them from the datings of modern science, and such initiatory events are listed in the Table above At the present time we are beginning to enter the eighth level of consciousness of the cosmic pyramid, based on the foundation provided by the seven lower levels. This eighth level may be referred to as the galactic frame of consciousness as it will step by step lead humanity to identify primarily with the galaxy. The highest level of consciousness, the Universal, will be attained through the workings of the Ninth Underworld in the year 2011 and will result in a timeless cosmic consciousness, and a citizenship in the universe, on the part of humanity.

In the middle column are listed the phenomena that initiate the evolution of these different Underworlds and to the right of these the types, or levels, of consciousness that they serve to develop. While the evolution of the Four lower levels of consciousness are all expressed as biological evolution the Five highest levels of consciousness carry the evolution of the cultural, technological and spiritual aspects of the human being. At the present time human beings are also beginning to develop a meta-consciousness, an awareness of the evolution of consciousness, that allows her to look upon creation from a higher perspective than the "frog perspective" of everyday human life. The Cosmic Consciousness of Universal Man as prophecised in many spiritual traditions is increasingly becoming a real possibility.
