"We do not know there are laws until we break them"

~ Manly Palmer Hall ~

These men were sledging at the back of the meeting.  They will have the full power of the Abyss loosed upon them and their families.  They probably will not join the dots but their actions were detrimental to themselves.

When we break them, we discover to our sorrow that we have not been very good.  As long as man is not full of self interest because if he is this way  the full power of the abyss is let loose over us.  Be still and do in peace all good deeds in the name of one sovereign good that we are ordained into.  We are never punished for what is right.

"Each hurdle we go through in life makes the next one easier."

~ A.D. Williams ~

When I make something as in created a work of art or a masterpiece as I call it, there is always room for improvement at every turn.  By the time I have completed three of the same thing I then have it all down pat. 

I have changed the process accordingly.   Each time I carry out the task,  I always find a more efficient method to carry out what I need to do.  This never ceases to give me a buzz.  I am hard on myself though.  I always want to do the best I can possibly do. 

To do this, I usually I go back to the first one and re-do it or pull the stitches undone and have another go at what ever it is.    I am more proficient with what I am doing then and it is easy. 

I get busy doing so many different things so starting again can be a little hectic.  I am kept very busy while others are perfectly bored with so much time on their hands.  I worked out that I am actually really happy while creating and playing as I call it. 

I call it play because as a child I did not play very much and I never played with anyone else.  Edith forbid me to have anything to do with anyone else.  This made it easier for her to abuse me.  It made it easy for her to keep it a secret all of  what she did to me.  No one ever knew because I was not allowed to talk to others. 

School was an issue to Edith's tyranical reach though,  it posed a threat to her control.  When I was 12 she sent me to a Children's Home to live and I became a Ward of the State of Queensland.  I was no longer her responsibility.  I was unwanted.  I was abandoned for the second time in my 12 short years.  Oh Gosh I remember how much that hurt too.  I had become a government kid.

For as long as I can remember it was a trick of mine to stay busy to make the time pass faster.  I guess it was a skill that has saved my life.  In the home I busied the other girls when certain nurses were on duty to make chocolate fudge in the old kitchen down stairs in the old part of the children's home.  Oh what fun that was too.

I love doing this kind of thing still today.   I have a great ability  to keep busy.  I find that I can make any time pass happily and quickly  as long as I am busy with something!   "Something", could be anything because my mind has the capacity for many interesting things to take place at once.   Keeping my mind occupied is the trick to it all.

The quicksilver mind of the person born with the sun in Gemini and Mercury in my house of communication must communicate.   I have found a myriad of ways in which to do this.   I was forced to become resourceful to save the very essence of who I am or I  fear I may have simply died of brokenness.  I photograph and I paint, I garden and I sew, I crochet and I write, I cook and I make things from junk, I collect seeds as a hobby and I love to walk,  I dance and love music, I play guitar like a novice but I love it.  I am a lover of poetry, music and drama.  I am a lover of wood.  I  dislike Injustice in the world of any capacity.

Being brought up by Edith at this time in my life was an injustice to the world as I had a great capacity to learn and to create change and I have been held back held down and shut up and shut down and each time I rise like the phoenix from the ashes to become great once more.  Why get down about where things are at now in my life.  Nature knows whats going on and so I must relax and let God be God and let go and just drift on the whimsical air of creativity and to where ever this takes me.

Peace, Love and Light always to all of my rainbow tribe brothers and sisters I am walking this journey with.

We call upon the waters that rim the earth, horizon-to-horizon, that flow in our rivers and streams, that fall upon our gardens and fields; and we ask that they teach us and show us the way.

Chinook Indian Blessing

 

Today I would ask solemnly for wisdom from nature surrounding my questions on vibration and the sound that the act of living resonates while one is a living, breathing entity.  If the emotion is the key-switch that switches on and off the codes of our DNA .. is that the reason why in biblical terms the word says and it is  written - God held my tears in a bottle.  The Tears are important therefore and for some reason they are being written here in the Old Testament  as held in a bottle, and for such a time as this . 

What are the tears being held for?  It could well be because the emotion is what is holding the earth together.  With zero emotion the world would crash and burn completely.  A baby that has no love cannot thrive.  A world with out emotion is the same, our world would shrivel and die.

This is proof to me that what I say is correct.  The emotions have a vibration, this vibration is more than important to the human as a being on earth.  Woman are more apt to be the emotional connectors but men have to learn emotion from a different level.  These creatures are not the same as woman in this respect.

Emotion of woman primarily is what is holding the earth in the place where she is right now,  this is why its important for us all to ascend to a higher level of communicating in love.  That single higher vibration can achieve miracles.   If we were to resonate at 538Hz then we too can perform what others call miracles... this is the creative part of God within us all. 

The Catholics so don't want us all to know this though.  They continue to practice their astrology ( our occult) and keep our true power from us all as peoples.  They are responsible for so much of the entire worlds issues to date for the last couple of thousand years plus.  Trying to use us against ourselves.

Good move Romans.   You did a great job for a couple of thousand years. Guess what? - time is up!  You are exposed.  Your sexual and physical abuse is rancid and rotten.  There are too many of us now,   you have lost your grip on the people,  you are going DOWN!  Yayayayayya, I have waited for this moment so  finally it can ascend us all higher.

Onward and upward for us all now.  No more war and no more lies!  No more hiding  the crowd sighs!
Life is about to change and really all I am doing is trying to explain it in laymen's terms for those that find it difficult to come to terms with.

Very beautiful and spiritual people have been had and its a scandal and absolute scandal.  One that will go down in history for the next two thousand years.  But what will be known in history is it was this time that exposed you for real finally.  You ran out of world finally.  Now to get things back on track again. 

I love all peoples of the world and it is high time for the Rainbow Tribes to expose themselves now and take back the true vibration and unleash  the vibration of love upon our world.

 This is so true, I  call this the Butterfly Effect.   I love butterflies but at times I don't like the effects.  This is a true statement of us all.  None of us like the ill effects of our behavior.  None of us like to actually feel this pain ourselves, so why do we inflict this on others then?  Good question!  One that I have zero answers to either. But I will always draw a lot of inspiration from the humble butterfly.  One whose life is spent in 24 short hours and he never complains,  I haven't heard a butterfly complain, have you?

“We have not wings we cannot soar; but, we have feet to scale and climb, by slow degrees, by more and more, the cloudy summits of our time.”
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Twenty four years ago today I went into labor for the very first time ever and I was in labor for 36 hours so Jesse's Birthday is not until tomorrow.  It is nice to think back and remember those fun times of how Sheena got lost and was gone with the heater for three hours.  When she returned I didn't need the heater then.  So this is the  eve of another birthday I won't have to opportunity to wish him happy birthday.   This effects me in a strange sort of way.  It hurts my heart so deeply.  I really don't understand why such a misunderstanding could be carried on for so long.
I think it is very sad and I think that all three of my children need to look at this a little more carefully.  They are being very standoffish and they are feeding off each others negativity in the situation.  By now I am sure I have two heads in their imaginings. 

Montana is so worried to stand up to them as well.  This is what she tells me.  She says they intimidate her too much regarding me and its all too hard for her to deal with to keep them all happy.  So in order to do that she does what she does.  Fair enough.  I am no one.  I have nothing they need and I rent so therefore according  to them I am a loser.

• Hurt ! You Think- You Decide - You Say ! (landoffun.wordpress.com)

Where are you From?

 Those from Sirius make loyal, trustworthy friends, but expect the same in return. They become hurt and disillusioned when these expectations are not met. Sirians do not share the inner personal self with others easily, and may have difficulty sharing emotions and expressing feelings and needs. To be fully accepted and trusted as a close personal friend of a Sirian means that you have been carefully scrutinized. Sirians may have difficulty in relationships and friendships when they expect to be treated in a certain way, but do not share their expectations with the others involved. It is important to work with sharing expectations, ideals, communicating needs and desires to avoid being hurt and disillusioned. This often occurs as a result of lack of communication or lack of mutual understanding and clarity in relationships.

Those from Sirius tend to be future oriented, and do not enjoy focusing on the past. They may become defensive if forced to focus on the past by others. This is due to the fact that past pain and emotion is held within, denied and repressed rather than being dealt with at the time of occurrence. Due to this there may be large amounts of old emotion in need of being dealt with and released. Sirians do not enjoy confrontations or open expressions of anger but if forced into an argument will defend themselves and their beliefs fiercely. This is particularly true if honor of themselves or loved ones is involved. One of the lessons many Sirians have chosen to work with in this lifetime is the importance of releasing old pain, forgiving self and others, and moving on.

Sirians have a very unique and strong sense of humor, which often is only seen when they are with those they trust and feel at ease with. Sirians may be considered dreamers by some. This is due to their active, vivid inner life. This can cause forgetfulness and a tendency to not notice trivial third dimensional things in the present. They may at times appear to be uninterested, or inattentive, but in actuality they are simply somewhere else. They may not realize that others are unaware of their inner activity. Although they appear very calm, quiet and reserved on the surface, there is much activity within. As children, Sirians may often be thought to have learning disorders or thought to have problems with their attention span.

This is due to the attraction of the inner world, which is often more interesting than that which is taught in Earth schools. They do best in learning when visual methods of teaching are used, and they are allowed hands on types of learning with freedom to move around and explore. These are children who benefit greatly from alternative schools, the are very intelligent but strong enough within to feel that if something does not interest them, they should not be required to learn about it.

Those from Sirius have a deep connection to the Earth and energies of nature. Many Sirians have had numerous lives as American Indians and maintain close ties and memories of these lives. They are very visual, both in their ability to see things which others do not, and in their manner of learning.

Girl, you gotta love your man, take him by the hand.

Jim Morrison ( The Doors)

Trees feel when another tree suffers a severe mishap.

 We are in a world that can be beautiful and it can be dangerous.   We, as humans, are all trying to stay above the fray, above the destruction of ourselves.  We are all out there doing the best we can to survive this onslaught that life serves up to us as people of the 21st Century.

I know longer feel that I have to have a bigger and better  latest feat to impress my son.  I remember that I was always trying to impress him with what I could do or what I knew about something.

This is a classic case of  just wanting to be accepted by someone.  It is clear now that even before there was any trouble, I would often ask him - "Do you Love Me"?

When he would show his disapproval of my hair or my cloths or my friends or my desires, it hurt a great deal.  I felt he just disapproved of me and my word in general.  Jesse was a very fussy boy.  He liked things clean and neat and tidy and I tried to do that and super-size it.  I was alright with this because I liked things this way also.  I was inadvertantly as his mumma, trying to take him by the hand and educate him and prepare him for his life.

Both Jesse and myself have Mercury as our ruling planet.  The planet of communication.  Gemini and Virgo.  But do they get along?  It can be hardcore at times when anything is in the hands of a Virgo.   They can expect a great deal from those around them.  These perfect Virgoan's amongst us set the bar very high for others,  usually not so high for themselves though.

I don't think that Jesse ever really accepted me as a viable human being.  He was so used to seeing his father walk all over me in decisions that were made.  He was used to seeing his father hopelessly drunk and angry.  He was used to seeing the abuse of a female as the norm.   I know this will effect the perception he has of me and his perception of all mothers.

"The only thing I know is that I paint because I need to, and I paint whatever passes through my head without any other consideration."
~Frida Kahlo~

To sit and paint with a brush or to create with beads or flowers or seeds or rubbish like these can lids above I painted, whichever medium you choose, this will be a meditation time.  If only others understood the great benefits from sitting and creating and letting the mind have a rest and concentrate only on a small stitch or a tiny dollop of paint in a single dot.  This is meditation in action and if you allow your mind to be filled with the work you are doing and the story it tells it is healing to your spirit.
This is beautiful spirit work when it happens.  For me it is like I go to another place and I welcome the moments when I feel overcome to paint symbols.

True Simplicity Rules Karmic Paths

When a bird is alive it eats ants, yet when it dies, the ants eat it. 

Circumstances can change at any time and the tables usually turn over a period of time.

Fire nourishes and Fire kills

Do not oppress, despise or hurt anyone during your lifetime. 

You may be powerful today but remember, time is more powerful that you!

 Just like one tree makes a million match sticks, yet when the time comes then only a single match is needed to burn a million trees.

What is Karma in a nutshell?
Answer: कर्म Karma is not punishment or retribution but simply an extended expression or consequence of natural acts. Karma means "deed" or "act" and more broadly names the universal principle of cause and effect, action and reaction, that governs all life. The effects experienced are also able to be mitigated by actions and are not necessarily fated. That is to say, a particular action now is not binding to some particular, pre-determined future experience or reaction; it is not a simple, one-to-one correspondence of reward or punishment.

What else do I think Karma is?
I think it is magnetic.  I think all things in the universe are magnetic and thoughts and feelings and words are magnetic.  They are alive with a positive or negative charge and they attract or repel.  To negate something is to take it down to posit something is to place higher.  So therefore the Heart of a person is the most alive part of themselves and it generates the  power in the body and it is magnetic in nature. It has two valves and an engine is similar with its inlet and outlet valves ie. so is an air conditioner but it far less spirit filled.

Aristotle distinguished between four causes, or four explanations, that each answer the question "why?" in different ways. These various means of explanation can be divided into four general types as follows:

• The material cause is the physical matter, the mass of "raw material" of which something is "made" (of which it consists).
• The formal cause tells us what, by analogy to the plans of an artisan, a thing is intended and planned to be.
• The efficient cause is that external entity from which the change or the ending of the change first starts.
• The final cause is that for the sake of which a thing exists, or is done - including both purposeful and instrumental actions. The final cause, or telos, is the purpose, or end, that something is supposed to serve.

The Heart Has Its Own “Brain” and Consciousness

IMG_4989, a photo by Images @ Melonpopzdropz on Flickr.

Heart Fields

Many believe that conscious awareness originates in the brain alone. Recent scientific research suggests that consciousness actually emerges from the brain and body acting together. A growing body of evidence suggests that the heart plays a particularly significant role in this process.

Far more than a simple pump, as was once believed, the heart is now recognized by scientists as a highly complex system with its own functional “brain.”

Research in the new discipline of neurocardiology shows that the heart is a sensory organ and a sophisticated center for receiving and processing information. The nervous system within the heart (or “heart brain”) enables it to learn, remember, and make functional decisions independent of the brain’s cerebral cortex. Moreover, numerous experiments have demonstrated that the signals the heart continuously sends to the brain influence the function of higher brain centers involved in perception, cognition, and emotional processing.

In addition to the extensive neural communication network linking the heart with the brain and body, the heart also communicates information to the brain and throughout the body via electromagnetic field interactions. The heart generates the body’s most powerful and most extensive rhythmic electromagnetic field. Compared to the electromagnetic field produced by the brain, the electrical component of the heart’s field is about 60 times greater in amplitude, and permeates every cell in the body. The magnetic component is approximately 5000 times stronger than the brain’s magnetic field and can be detected several feet away from the body with sensitive magnetometers.

The heart generates a continuous series of electromagnetic pulses in which the time interval between each beat varies in a dynamic and complex manner. The heart’s ever-present rhythmic field has a powerful influence on processes throughout the body. We have demonstrated, for example, that brain rhythms naturally synchronize to the heart’s rhythmic activity, and also that during sustained feelings of love or appreciation, the blood pressure and respiratory rhythms, among other oscillatory systems, entrain to the heart’s rhythm.

We propose that the heart’s field acts as a carrier wave for information that provides a global synchronizing signal for the entire body. Specifically, we suggest that as pulsing waves of energy radiate out from the heart, they interact with organs and other structures. The waves encode or record the features and dynamic activity of these structures in patterns of energy waveforms that are distributed throughout the body. In this way, the encoded information acts to in-form (literally, give shape to) the activity of all bodily functions—to coordinate and synchronise processes in the body as a whole. This perspective requires an energetic concept of information, in which patterns of organisation are enfolded into waves of energy of system activity distributed throughout the system as a whole.
Basic research at the Institute of Heart Math shows that information pertaining to a person’s emotional state is also communicated throughout the body via the heart’s electromagnetic field. The rhythmic beating patterns of the heart change significantly as we experience different emotions. Negative emotions, such as anger or frustration, are associated with an erratic, disordered, incoherent pattern in the heart’s rhythms. In contrast, positive emotions, such as love or appreciation, are associated with a smooth, ordered, coherent pattern in the heart’s rhythmic activity. In turn, these changes in the heart’s beating patterns create corresponding changes in the structure of the electromagnetic field radiated by the heart, measurable by a technique called spectral analysis.
More specifically, we have demonstrated that sustained positive emotions appear to give rise to a distinct mode of functioning, which we call psychophysiological coherence. During this mode, heart rhythms exhibit a sine wave-like pattern and the heart’s electromagnetic field becomes correspondingly more organized.
At the physiological level, this mode is characterized by increased efficiency and harmony in the activity and interactions of the body’s systems.
Psychologically, this mode is linked with a notable reduction in internal mental dialogue, reduced perceptions of stress, increased emotional balance, and enhanced mental clarity, intuitive discernment, and cognitive performance.
In sum, our research suggests that psychophysiological coherence is important in enhancing consciousness—both for the body’s sensory awareness of the information required to execute and coordinate physiological function, and also to optimize emotional stability, mental function, and intentional action. Furthermore, as we see next, there is experimental evidence that psychophysiological coherence may increase our awareness of and sensitivity to others around us. The Institute of HeartMath has created practical technologies and tools that all people can use to increase coherence.
Heart Field Interactions Between Individuals
Most people think of social communication solely in terms of overt signals expressed through language, voice qualities, gestures, facial expressions, and body movements. However, there is now evidence that a subtle yet influential electromagnetic or “energetic” communication system operates just below our conscious awareness. Energetic interactions likely contribute to the “magnetic” attractions or repulsions that occur between individuals, and also affect social exchanges and relationships. Moreover, it appears that the heart’s field plays an important role in communicating physiological, psychological, and social information between individuals.
Experiments conducted at the Institute of HeartMath have found remarkable evidence that the heart’s electromagnetic field can transmit information between people. We have been able to measure an exchange of heart energy between individuals up to 5 feet apart. We have also found that one person’s brain waves can actually synchronize to another person’s heart. Furthermore, when an individual is generating a coherent heart rhythm, synchronization between that person’s brain waves and another person’s heartbeat is more likely to occur. These findings have intriguing implications, suggesting that individuals in a psychophysiologically coherent state become more aware of the information encoded in the heart fields of those around them.
The results of these experiments have led us to infer that the nervous system acts as an “antenna,” which is tuned to and responds to the electromagnetic fields produced by the hearts of other individuals. We believe this capacity for exchange of energetic information is an innate ability that heightens awareness and mediates important aspects of true empathy and sensitivity to others Furthermore, we have observed that this energetic communication ability can be intentionally enhanced, producing a much deeper level of nonverbal communication, understanding, and connection between people. There is also intriguing evidence that heart field interactions can occur between people and animals.
In short, energetic communication via the heart field facilitates development of an expanded consciousness in relation to our social world.
The Heart’s Field and Intuition
There are also new data suggesting that the heart’s field is directly involved in intuitive perception, through its coupling to an energetic information field outside the bounds of space and time. Using a rigorous experimental design, we found compelling evidence that both the heart and brain receive and respond to information about a future event before the event actually happens. Even more surprising was our finding that the heart appears to receive this “intuitive” information before the brain. This suggests that the heart’s field may be linked to a more subtle energetic field that contains information on objects and events remote in space or ahead in time. Called by Karl Pribram and others the “spectral domain,” this is a fundamental order of potential energy that enfolds space and time, and is thought to be the basis for our consciousness of “the whole.” (See heartmath.org for further detail.)
Social Fields
In the same way that the heart generates energy in the body, we propose that the social collective is the activator and regulator of the energy in social systems.
A body of groundbreaking work shows how the field of socioemotional interaction between a mother and her infant is essential to brain development, the emergence of consciousness, and the formation of a healthy self-concept. These interactions are organized along two relational dimensions—stimulation of the baby’s emotions, and regulation of shared emotional energy. Together they form a socioemotional field through which enormous quantities of psychobiological and psychosocial information are exchanged. Coherent organization of the mother-child relations that make up this field is critical. This occurs when interactions are charged, most importantly, with positive emotions (love, joy, happiness, excitement, appreciation, etc.), and are patterned as highly synchronized, reciprocal exchanges between these two individuals. These patterns are imprinted in the child’s brain and thus influence psychosocial function throughout life. (See Allan Schore, Affect Regulation and the Origin of the Self.)
Moreover in a longitudinal study of 46 social groups, one of us (RTB) documented how information about the global organization of a group—the group’s collective consciousness—appears to be transmitted to all members by an energetic field of socio-emotional connection. Data on the relationships between each pair of members was found to provide an accurate image of the social structure of the group as a whole. Coherent organization of the group’s social structure is associated with a network of positively charged emotions (love, excitement, and optimism) connecting all members. This network of positive emotions appears to constitute a field of energetic connection into which information about the group’s social structure is encoded and distributed throughout the group. Remarkably, an accurate picture of the group’s overall social structure was obtained from information only about relationships between pairs of individuals. We believe the only way this is possible is if information about the organization of the whole group is distributed to all members of the group via an energetic field. Such correspondence in information between parts and the whole is consistent with the principle of holographic organization.
Synthesis and Implications
Some organizing features of the heart field, identified in numerous studies at HeartMath, may also be shared by those of our hypothesized social field. Each is a field of energy in which the waveforms of energy encode the features of objects and events as energy moves throughout the system. This creates a nonlocal order of energetic information in which each location in the field contains an enfolded image of the organization of the whole system at that moment. The organization and processing of information in these energy fields can best be understood in terms of quantum holographic principles.
Another commonality is the role of positive emotions, such as love and appreciation, in generating coherence both in the heart field and in social fields. When the movement of energy is intentionally regulated to form a coherent, harmonious order, information integrity and flow are optimized. This, in turn, produces stable, effective system function, which enhances health, psychosocial well-being, and intentional action in the individual or social group.

Heart coherence and social coherence may also act to mutually reinforce each other. As individuals within a group increase psychophysiological coherence, psychosocial attunement may be increased, thereby increasing the coherence of social relations. Similarly, the creation of a coherent social field by a group may help support the generation and maintenance of psychophysiological coherence in its individual members. An expanded, deepened awareness and consciousness results—of the body’s internal physiological, emotional, and mental processes, and also of the deeper, latent orders enfolded into the energy fields that surround us. This is the basis of self-awareness, social sensitivity, creativity, intuition, spiritual insight, and understanding of ourselves and all that we are connected to. It is through the intentional generation of coherence in both heart and social fields that a critical shift to the next level of planetary consciousness can occur—one that brings us into harmony with the movement of the whole.

THOUGHTS and WORDS

SAM 7535 - Painted sky, a photo by Images @ Melonpopzdropz on Flickr.

 SUBVERSIVENESS and SEDITION?   Thoughts are always subversive and words could always be termed seditious.

Only people who do not think are not subversive. Thinking is a crime. Jesus is crucified, Socrates is poisoned, Gautam Buddha is stoned. These people have not harmed anybody. They were the most loving, most compassionate human beings possible – but they committed a crime, and the crime’s name is thinking.

No society wants any of its members to think.
Thinking is dangerous.

The society wants robots who simply do whatever is told to them, who cannot say no – that is impossible for them. They are machines.

It is not accidental that every developed society is replacing man by machines. Machines are obedient, never subversive. Have you ever heard of any machine being a revolutionary or a rebel?
It has not happened up to now that we had to crucify a machine.

I am not a machine.

And there is no way of thinking, other than being subversive.

The Earth keeps us alive along with the Sun.  We must respect the earth with the utmost respect and not listen to politicians who have forked tongues and gouge this earth for everything she has! It is RAPE

Even trees fall in Love

At the Christmas holes at the Promised Land Gleniffer just up the road from where my children grew up , the trees look like they are cuddling each other. a lot of the trees are two trees growing together. Like they are joining forces against the forces of itself.
This is an interesting analogy to human relationships and to life itself.

We had many many fun times here.  I remember being pregnant with Tilly and Montana here and swimming in amongst the most perfect beauty nature can offer up!

Everything out here appears to love each other so beautifully and so symbiotically it was very moving.
