Today is a day to focus on justice. Justice, fairness, equity – all of these are aspects of the balance of the universe. I do not need to enforce justice, I do not need to decide what is just. I do not worry about what I think is unfair. I keep myself balanced and deal with everything and everyone around me in a just manner, and allow the energy of the universe to maintain balance.
~ A Daily Book of Pagan Prayer by Megan Day
I have quite the active astral life. Most of which I have absolutely NO understanding. The learning process is one in which my own misunderstanding causes judgement to rise … judgement which I am in practice of releasing.
This world and the life it holds is all I have to compare these otherworldly experiences to, and often I believe I misinterpret what I see and experience … yet, perhaps this too is a misunderstanding.
Maybe life on and in all worlds is basically the same, only on different evolutionary paths or levels. This is what makes it seem so different, for many of these patterns are no longer seen in this world, in these times.
Think of the canine … the wolf and the coyote.
At one point in time (and still in certain areas and circumstances) these would eat us in a heartbeat, we would have to defend ourselves, set traps, and outsmart them in order to not be food for them. Nowadays, for the most part, the canine is our friend and companion, we’ve bred and trained the beast out of them.
When visiting other worlds, it is the same. Untamed territory, prehistoric beliefs about sacrifice and appeasing the gods, protection and defense, protector and defender.
We still have the mindset of protector and defender here in our current scenarios. But do we truly understand the meaning of defender vs protector?
If someone or something attacks me or those I love, I defend. But what if I threw the attacker a bone, a nugget of choice to distract and satisfy its primitive behaviors and needs? What if I did that instead of kicking it, or trying to kill it? What if, instead, I worked toward making it friend?
A difficult process when understanding is lacking. Even more so when the effort to understand is completely left at the wayside and combat embraced and utilized as the go-to for survival.
We see today, in the USA and indeed the whole of the world, people coming against each other.
Warriors who fought for peace, when in fact they were taking the ability for peace and freedom from others. The mind was trained to believe a certain thing, the body trained to endure it … yet we see many veterans who cracked … because it is not natural. The subconscious, the inner psyche knows it is not right to kill or maim in an effort to bring peace.
It is an absolute contradiction which tears the mind apart, or deadens the heart.
We have veterans now who are getting ready to step up and defend against domestic terrorism … orchestrated by the string pullers, the jar shakers, those who control life from behind scenes.
Many people will be harmed, simply because they lack the willingness to hear, in a peaceful way, each other …
Rather, they are being steered into battle.
It is important to remember that where attention goes, energy flows. That which we focus on grows.
Yes, some are destroying life as we knew it. The water wars are beginning now, as wall street prepares to trade water rights …..
So what is the solution?
It seems obvious that governments must be deconstructed and reconstructed as a unified presence … unified because the people participate in the solution rather than empowering the potentials which cause separation.
There is enough for all, should we stop warring and actually think about solutions rather than who has the most, who is hording, ugh … empowering greed with our very own attention.
So many are creating solutions NOW. Ways to clean the oceans, different light source medical relief and treatments, vehicles which run clean and in such a manner that cause less stress on the planet and atmosphere, ways to collect water from the very air we breath, the dew, which I know the planet needs, but they are trying to find beneficial ways to live, that bear little impact on our world. It is that effort, the unified thinking processes of ALL people which can assist life instead of tearing it down. (let us toss aside the faulty ‘voting’ processes and go to a truer way of communicating our inner most connections with Source, sharing and caring with each other, as a unit.
Leaders schmeeders …. they are only as powerful as their base, and the base is crumbling … the people are crumbling ….
The solution providers are where the energy must be placed. Those who not only are able to help themselves, but are able to help others, empowering each other to empower the planet and all life upon it.
The potential of being the solution provider for other worlds is upon us. If only we could embrace the solution for our selves, rather than the problems. The problems which are created and perpetuated by those who desire control and power.
That is such an old way of being ….
We can continue on the path of overpowering everything that we encounter, or we can befriend it all, working out harmonious ways to satisfy the needs of all.
Is it going to be easy? My mind says no …
But reality says yes, it really is that simple.
To simply decide to be solution rather than separation and problems.
Ultimately, it is the people who choose war or peace.
“Don’t be afraid to cry. It will free your mind of sorrowful thoughts.”
~ Don Talayesva, HOPI
Human beings function from choice. We can choose to stuff things, or we can choose to let go of things. If we choose to stuff things, then we will feel a heaviness, or sorrow, self pity or fear. Sometimes we feel the need to cry. Sometimes we are taught it is not okay to cry. The creator designed the human being to cry. Crying is a release. This release allows us to let go of thoughts that are not helping us so we can open to new thoughts that will help. Crying is natural for women and men.
Grandfather, if I need to cry, let me realize it’s a natural process and help me to let go.

Human beings are perceivers, but the world that they perceive is an illusion: an illusion created by the description that was told to them from the moment they were born.
So in essence, the world that their reason wants to sustain is the world created by a description and its dogmatic and inviolable rules, which their reason learns to accept and defend.
~ Carlos Castaneda “Tales of Power”
Oh We’re tying the stars to the mountains
The mountains to the stars. We are so high
That we can see beyond the wall of our own horizons
Waywayah. Waywayah
Cords that Knot & threads that bind
Tell the tale of Humankind
From long ago into future returning
All wisdoms from lifetimes learnt
Out of the cave the Shining Ones rise
A hope awoke in their eyes
We weave a new myth into the Timelines
Oh We’re tying the stars to the mountains
The mountains to the stars. We are so high
That we can see beyond the wall of our own horizons
Old Basket Maker tends to her net
Gathering up all the ones who have leapt
Smooth our way into The Emergence
Oh I Am who I Am Oh I Am
Reflecting all that you see I am
Generosity flows from our hands
Enough talk now it is time for deeds
Oh We’re tying the stars to the mountains
The mountains to the stars. We are so high
That we can see beyond the wall of our own horizons
Waywayah. Waywayah
Strip out of any illusionary attire
Into the smoke of the eucalyptus fire
Pounding our feet in the rising dust
In freedom & wonder, Creator we trust
We restore balance through our reverence of life
Quivers full of courage & our blood lightening
Alhamdulillah (Praise be to God)
Oh we’re tying the stars to the mountains
The mountains to the stars. We are so high
That we can see beyond the wall of our own horizons
Waywayah. Waywayah. Tying the stars to the loom.

If you’re like me, you were trained to be apologetic, to feel small, and to say and do things to keep you feeling that way.
It took a few decades before I put my foot down to this behavior. I will no longer apologize for who I am … yet I will always look for ways to be grateful for, and to, the people in my life who help me on the way.
It is difficult to change (never break) habitual patterns that were taught to us as children and young adults. These are our most formative years, and one reason why the memories of youth stay with us so long … even for those who suffer dementia.
Yet changing habitual patterns is necessary if we wish to change our reality.
As Dr Joe Dispenza states, “Your personal reality is formed by your personality.”
It is important to do things differently if we wish to experience a shift in our personal reality.
Skip the coffee in the morning, have juice instead. Drive a different route to work. Pack a lunch rather than going out. Sit under a tree and eat it, or go to the car and listen to soft music while you eat. After work, go to a hot-springs for a soak rather than going home to sit in front of the television … read a book, or color, or zentangle … get your creative skills going. Change the time you eat, the foods you choose, fast for awhile. If you take sleeping pills, skip them a few days, as much as you can stand … let the mind wander and ‘put up with’ a few sleepless nights … much can be accomplished should we allow our hidden consciousness loose for a time. Much will be revealed … scary things we can then ponder on and work out, lovely things we can grow in mind …
These are only a few ideas, of which I put into practice on a regular basis, not all at once of course, but I choose at least one thing in the day to do differently.
Being predictable can lead to many problems when it comes to our relationships with others, and even more detrimental, with our selves.
If you are having a bad day, consciously make it a point to start creating a list of things you are grateful for … any and all things that come to mind. It will shift your perspective fairly quickly, seriously. It will make it easier to process through whatever got you in a funk in the first place and rather than dwell there, you will be able to move on, into the next idea, thought form, or practice. And don’t just visit the list next time you’re in a funk, create a new list … because this list changes over time.
Mostly, stop apologizing for being you, stop making yourself small, giving away your power to stand tall and strong …
I’m not saying to become agressive, or overpowering … becoming that which has held you down for so long …. I’m suggesting a rising …. to heights originally intended for you … for we.
It is not a chosen few who get to occupy these spaces of strength and personal authority. It is you, it is me, it is we.
“If you are blaming people, they are holding you captive — and you are never going to change.”
~ Pershlie Ami (Hopi)
As most of us are busy trying to create a reality for ourselves that is healthy, happy and whole, there are others working against us.
You see, their goal is to manipulate the reality of everyone around them … in this way, they manipulate their own.
Two kinds of players …
The honest, who keep to themselves,
And the greedy, who get a kick out of disrupting the lives of others. This gives them a sense of power … and it may even be rewarded by those higher up in the game, doing the same.
The question is …
Are we aware of this fact? Or are we being pulled here and there, at the whim of another, or others.
It is easy to tell ourself we will not be manipulated, but are we telling ourself the truth? How can this be truth when we cannot see the bigger picture? The game … the hoopla … the hoops we continuously jump through at the guidance of others?
Reality …. it’s tough, especially when we cannot see it.
I did not watch the debate more than 15 minutes last night. Two grown men, calling each other liars …. like arguing children. And people are caught up in it as if it is the most important thing in this world.
Who is creating reality? Arguing children, or you?
It’s plain to see should one step back and simply observe without getting emotionally entangled. It takes practice … and time is short.
Stepping back now would be the wise thing to do.
Stop the drink, the drug, the mind altering substances which inhibit clear thinking.
Unless of course you enjoy being played ….
Then by all miens, continue.
Realities are being designed, right now. The one you buy in to will be yours for some time.
Choose wisely.
I say these things for my benefit, as much as yours.
What you choose now will be your reality for years to come.
Step away from the players, be the Creator.
I can be sitting here minding my own business and something will happen to make me think “you should be careful of what you say” … “you should not say that” … “you have no idea what is going to happen to you” ….. or some such chatter.
And I think … are these really MY thoughts, or an impersonator, or imposter, trying to implant suggestions which cause paranoia, or fear of retribution, simply for being me?
So I kick back, usually rebel, and think more of the same … at first. Then I listen to what I am saying. Is it beneficial to me? Am I just chattering away to hear my self talk? Do I ever think before I speak? Who is listening … really?
Surely by now all of us are aware there is always someone listening, even if they are invisible. No thing goes unnoticed, no thing is hidden.
The question is, if these ones are sitting in a seat of judgement, without the unobstructed introduction of self and status, or authority, should any of it be taken seriously? Any instilled sense of doubt?
I’m currently of the mind that if it doesn’t go against my own moral code, then no … however, perceptions change, and so does that code, so being open to new ways of thinking is critical for growth …
Even if the listeners are still only just invisible.
Call them angels … demons … aliens … or the more common (I believe) psychics …. having been around for millennia, secretly ruling the world from behind veils … which are now lifting for a better view … for them … and for we.
Perhaps I am not the only one who has wondered these things.
Maybe you too have been receiving visitors in astral land, what some still call ‘dream time’.
Being as conscious in the subconscious and unconscious as we are during the waking states is difficult … or is it really any different, given the many distractions we are constantly chasing around?
Oh the mind … a crazy, crazy thing so few know much about … even the so-called professionals.
How often are our actions intentionally drawn up, and coordinated? How often are we willy-nilly flipping through the channels of life until we land on something interesting, a distraction for a time?
Sounds like a dream.
Even while awake.
Here for a moment, and in an entirely different place in the next. If not physically, then inside the mind.
