Dolphins and Planet Earth

On February 27, several thousand dolphins fled California’s coast, as you’ll see in the video above. The man speaking in the video guesses that some sound or a predator spooked them. Now, that might be true, but from what we’ve seen of dolphin behavior in the past, it may also be true that they are sensing shifting in the planet’s magma.

Here’s a list of quakes for February 29. These temblors aren’t the huge killer quakes that we saw in Japan or Chile last year. These seem to be reminders: a 5.6 near the east coast Honshu, Japan; a 3.9 in the Dominican Republic region; several in the 3s in southern California; a 3.0 in Oklahoma; a 4.8 in Colombia and so on. They’re happening all over the world, but nothing massive.   Coupled with the horrible, devastating  tornadoes in Missouri and Illinois – in February??-  and the generally strange weather that’s affecting certain types of crops, it seems the planet is stressed to the max.

In Texas, drought is affecting rice crops; a mild winter in the Northeast US is affecting maple syrup producers; winter wheat in Russian has been damaged by frost. Nearly 60 percent of the contiguous U.S. is dry and more than 36 percent is in drought conditions.

Here in Florida, we’ve had an unusual winter. Today, February 29, the temperature hit 84. Usually, the temperature at this time of year is in the 50s or 60s at night and in the low 70s during the day.  We’re approaching a drought. In the western area of the county where we live, we’ve gotten less than half an inch of rain so far in 2012. Our county overall is 8 inches of rain below normal.

Then there are the strange sounds that are apparently being heard around the world.  Some of these sounds resemble those of trumpets, so it’s not surprising the phenomenon  have been called a warning of the impending apocalypse. Whitley Strieber has written an intriguing journal entry on these sounds.

Even when you remove the end times stuff from this picture, it does seem as if the Earth is speaking, protesting, crying out. Are we listening?

Apparently the dolphins are listening closely.

On the Rocky path

Posted on February 29, 2012 by Trish and Rob

The day after returning from Toronto, a mini-cool spell followed us from the Northlands. So as the temps dipped toward the high 50s, we decided to build a fire in the firepit in our little courtyard. We were out of wood and Trish said she didn’t see any at the grocery store. So I called up Rocky’s Ace Hardware and was told they had half a pallet of bundled logs.

So off we headed to Rocky’s Ace Hardware. We reached the exit of our development when Trish picked up an e-mail from a friend of ours, also named Rocky. I had borrowed his heating pad months ago after I strained a muscle, and now he’d done the same and wanted it back.

Trish called and said we’d be home in about ten minutes and he could pick it up. We got our wood, and when we got back, it occurred to me that I should deliver Rocky the heating pad. After all, I was the one who borrowed it. So I looked up his number, called him. He answered, saying that he had just that moment pulled into our driveway.

A couple hours later, as we sat by the fire, soaking in the warmth, it occurred to me that we’d experienced a synchro and had nearly missed it. Not only did the two Rocky scenarios come together simultaneously, but each involved heat.

We consider that one an ordinary everyday type of synchro, but nonetheless interesting and another reminder for us that we’re on the path we’ve chosen – even if it’s a rocky one sometimes.

Feedback on Dream Symbol

Posted on February 28, 2012 by Trish and Rob

Here’s the stone that inspired Bruce’s dream, which we wrote about yesterday. Mysterious and enchanting.

 

Here’s the symbol from his UFO dream.   We sent it to several people before the post went up and asked if they recognized it or had any insights into it.

And here’s a sketch of the craft that Gypsy saw last year. Eerie similarities in shape,

but no face!Other people’s insights/impressions:

From Natalie:

Well, I get the feeling it relates to the structure of our belief systems, and how there will be no boundaries and no ‘time/space’ as we know it. I keep seeing a world where everybody is emotionally translucent, and there is only truth, and only Now.

I feel the cross, though simplistic, represents Source and those of a higher, teaching type vibration available for guidance and assimilation during the changeover. Vibrations feel faster, more translucent. Almost like a baby Guppy…. clear with a little dark bit inside. I see this darker bit near the brow chakra. It just feels like the next step to me, and personally, I am looking forward to it. Perhaps a bit like the upper astral realms?

From Debra

The winged bird-serpent on the stone is a symbol of Heaven meeting Earth within the human body: higher and lower natures unified.

This is what Jung called a “Big Dream”. It will continue to unfold and create synchronistic ripples throughout Bruce’s life.

The (Mother)ship is luminous, in the yellow spectrum w/ orange. This means something pure is trying to incarnate, to “come down to earth”. The orange means there is still purification to be done within the earthly nature. Orange is the desire nature. When unchecked it is materialism and greed. Heaven can’t touch earth– yet. The ship moves in a square, which represents Earth. Then it proceeds to move so fast it’s a blurr. It can’t land here –yet This represents the new possibilities that are just out of our sight- until purification. It finally dissolves, leaving the symbol.

Visually, the symbol looks similar to a pyramid viewed from above it’s apex.

This is the point where heaven/sky and earth meet. It is also one half of the Merkabah: a 3-dimensional, 6-rayed star. This represents the human spirit purified. It’s alight-ship that our consciousness can travel with. (It is said in that the old Kabbalistic Masters could build one of these through purification and meditation. They could then travel inter-dimensionally. I am referring to the authentic literature,and not the modern pop-cult.) The symbol also represents an inter-dimensional gateway.

It is orange, yet needs to become yellow, or golden. The 6 little ships represent humans. In this dream we are told that we do not carry the golden light: we are not self-luminous. We can only reflect light. We have to become luminous, become Wisdom-infused bodies. Wisdom creates the “glory” or the luminosity that will light us up from within. We are also told that we can be different. We don’t have to all look or be exactly alike.

The repeated “6” (600 sq. feet, 6 little ships, the implied 6 rayed star) also represents Creator meeting Creation, or Heaven meeting Earth.

So the work here is for each of us to create a space where heaven meets earth, both individually and collectively.

From Math:

In terms of the meaning of the dream itself, my initial thought, that hasn’t changed, is that it wasn’t a “dream” but was, instead, a direct contact experience….either out of the body as it ‘slept’, or an actual in the body experience with the entities in the UFOS. I may have this thought because some of my encounters have happened in such a manner, but were definitely within this third dimension.

Another thought that crosses my mind is that he may have been experiencing Future Memory, or a precognitive message of things to come. Another possibility is that he was actually Time-Traveling to a future experience OR to a parallel dimension where the entities exist. There’s always the possibility that it was a PAST MEMORY and that the symbol was a reminder of something he already knows but has forgotten. But no matter what thoughts come to me in his regard, I do not have any sense that it was a “dream” and was instead a lucid, tangible experience in which he was participating.

Dream or Contact?

Posted on February 27, 2012 by Trish and Rob

 

We ran into Bruce Gernan recently, the pilot with whom Rob co-authored The Fog, the story of a time travel experience Bruce had some years ago in the Bermuda Triangle. Every time we see Bruce, the conversation is invariably intriguing. This time, he related a dream he’d had recently.

His friend, Kathy Doore, had loaned him an ancient, sacred stone from Markawasi, Peru and told him to place it under his pillow to induce dreams. The symbol at the top of the post is what Bruce saw in the dream and we would love all feedback and insights into what the symbol might mean. Here’s Bruce’s dream:

++

My friend Kathy Doore loaned me a strange stone she said was enchanted and sacred.       It was carved by someone from Peru many thousands of years ago and it had a strange looking bird with a lizard’s tail on it. She told me to put it under my pillow when I go to sleep and I would dream something special. I tried it and absolutely nothing special happened. I had the same type of boring and senseless dreams I usually have.

Three days later I gave the stone back to Kathy and just before I woke up the next morning, I had an incredible dream. It was about a space ship. I have never dreamed about UFO’s.

We were at a large gathering of tens of thousands of people. It might have been an air show like the one every year at Lakeland Florida. It was at night and the show was just ending when this incredible event took place. Out of nowhere, a gigantic space ship appeared directly overhead and hovered about 500 feet above us. It was huge- about 500 feet long and 250 feet wide. It was similar in shape to the famous Star Trek space ship except it was more streamlined and integrated. The entire ship was glowing a yellowish orange color.

The crowd was gasping and people were mumbling what it could be. It was obviously a UFO. After hovering for a few minutes it slowly started to move, then began some incredible maneuvers. It made square turns with no radius and went up and down with the same precision. It moved faster and faster until it became difficult to follow and looked almost like a blur. This went on for almost ten minutes and everyone was spellbound.

Finally it slowly climbed up to about 2000 feet and hovered. Then it slowly disintegrated and the symbol appeared. It was about 600 feet square, glowed bright orange and lit up everything – the sky, the ground. Dangling below it were six flying saucers of different shapes shapes that were lit up from the symbol above them. Then the symbol disappeared and the show was over.

When I awoke I was excited to realize I may have seen a future event that was the first official contact with extraterrestrials and our world.

++

Here’s Kathy Doore’s response to Bruce’s dream:

That strange stone you placed under your pillow (instead of meditating with), was a rare, authentic “Ica Stone” from the private collection of Dr. Javier Cabrera. It was gifted to me by the doctor himself a few week before he succumbed to cancer.

I’d visited him at his hacienda home on several occasions in the city of Ica, Peru, where he lived, worked, and housed his massive (11,000+),  collection of ancient engraved stones. This  was the last visit we would have together before he passed over on December 30, 2001.

++

From Kathy’s website about Markawasi:

We sent the symbol to several people who gave their interpretations, so we’ll follow up with a post on what this symbol may mean.

Gypsy drew a diagram of a craft/object she saw last year which seems similar – but no face!

Hoax or the Beginning of Disclosure?

Posted on February 26, 2012 by Trish and Rob

I first ran across this video on Strieber’s Unknown Country.  When I stopped by his site today, he had additional information about it, from a video expert.  As he notes, there’s something creepy about this.

Michael Talbot

Posted on February 26, 2012 by Trish and Rob

Darren alerted us to this video on Mike Clelland’s  blog. Michael Talbot was a brilliant writer whose Holographic Universe came into my life at a time when I needed to know that I wasn’t nuts for believing what I believed. His book impacted me at such deep levels that language is inadequate in describing the ramifications.

Doors to Perception

Posted on February 25, 2012 by Trish and Rob

When we travel, we move away from what is familiar and known and  the uncertainty creates a fertile environment for synchronicity. During our weekend visit to Toronto, we experienced so many synchronicites that Rob made a list of them and we talked about who would write what.

At one point in the weekend, I remember opening my eyes, orienting myself to daily life, and thinking, OK, Rob is sitting over there in that chair reading Stephen King’s most recent novel, 11/22/63,  time travel, JFK, I get it.  But suppose I am time traveling too?

When two  writers are married to each other, weird environments surface. Some are great, others are blind spots. This story is about a blind spot.

Our first morning at the Pantages, we went downstairs to the restaurant for breakfast and discover it’s $12.99 – let’s call it 13 bucks, higher if you’re paying with America dollars – for a rather sad buffet of cereal, yogurt,  toast. Or, as Rob put it – the sort of continental breakfast that is often free of charge at business hotels. We’re already annoyed because  the production company hasn’t paid for the $12 daily charge for internet for our room or  for any of our meals. Yes, we’re also at fault here, we did not negotiate  beforehand.

Rob is really irritated by the price; right then, I’m frankly too hungry to care. He orders scrambled eggs, and that’s what he gets – eggs, nothing more. I go for whatever is in sight, the cereal, the toast, the yogurt.   We bite the bullet and vow to find a less expensive place for breakfast the next day.

After the interview for Weird or What? the director, Stephen Grant, asked us where we were staying. When we told him, he said, “Oh, you’re very close to Fran’s, a local hangout that’s open 24 hours and serves breakfast day and night. You should go there.”

The next morning, in fact, we asked the woman at the front desk for directions to Fran’s. She looked at us sort of oddly and pointed to double doors on the far side of the expensive bar/restaurant. “Right through there,” she said.

So, about 30 feet where we had sat the morning before, griping about the price of the buffet breakfast, lay the alternate universe called Fran’s. It was as if time at Fran’s had stopped around 1950. The menu offered a lot more food than the hotel’s buffet and at half the price.

We had seen those double doors the morning before and I thought they led into the hotel kitchen or some other employees only place, even though there was no sign to that effect. So our lack of curiosity about where those doors led, our limited perception, had kept us out of Fran’s until it was recommended by the director at Weird or What?

For me, it was an important lesson about exploration, something we usually do well when we’re traveling. But for some reason, with those double doors, we wore blinders that blocked our peripheral vision, our doors to perception, as Aldous Huxley put it.

So after we ate our fantastic, inexpensive breakfast, we left through Fran’s front doors and snapped some pics. That’s Rob, peeking around the edge of the building like some time traveler from the 1950s who has dropped in for a peek at 21st century Toronto.

The Assault on Women’s Health

Posted on February 24, 2012 by Trish and Rob

https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=0dKsIvJZ4vc

Imagine it. You’re a woman, single or not, who has made the difficult decision to have an abortion.  But before you can have the procedure, you are mandated to have a transvaginal ultrasound, where a probe, a wand,  is inserted into your vagina. According to Medline Plus, “this probe sends out sound waves which reflect off body structures. A computer receives these waves and uses them to create a picture. The doctor can immediately see the picture on a nearby TV monitor.”

The point of such an unnecessary procedure, of course, is to get the woman who wants the abortion to look at the ultrasound image and change her mind about the abortion. It’s one more weapon in the right-wing arsenal to overturn Roe V Wade. In Florida, in fact, if you refuse to look at the ultrasound image, it will be noted in your medical records. So, let’s say fifteen years later you’re in the midst of a bitter divorce and custody battle and your spouse’s attorney requests that your medical records be submitted as evidence that you’re an unfit parent. She wouldn’t even look at the ultrasound image.

The most recent battleground over this issue was Virginia. According to the Washington Post:  “In Virginia, the bill began muscling its way through a legislature that recently came under the rule of GOP conservatives. It moved ahead despite an outcry from women and Democrats, including a female lawmaker who called it ‘state-mandated rape’ and another who made her point with a failed amendment requiring rectal prostate exams for men seeking Viagra prescriptions.”

Nearly 1,500 women silently protested this bill in Virginia’s capitol and presented Governor Bob McDonnell with petitions that had than 30,000 names  protesting the bill. Then the bill was lampooned on Saturday Night Live and uh-oh, suddenly the popular culture was informed. And apparently the Republican  politicians realized they were on the wrong side of this bill. The governor backed down. Maybe it finally dawned on him that the majority of voters are women.

The Guttmacher Institute, which researches abortion-related issues, is keeping close tabs on this issue. Here’s how they break down the ultrasound laws around the U.S.:

Existing laws: Alabama, Arizona, Florida, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas

Enjoined laws (not currently in effect): North Carolina, Oklahoma

Bills pending that require ultrasounds: Alabama, Iowa, Kentucky, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Virginia

Bills pending that require doctors to offer ultrasounds: Iowa, Illinois, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey

Even in conservative Mississippi, a bill that would have banned most forms of contraception, was dropped.

This assault on women’s health and choices is appalling and horrifying. We live in the 21st century and Roe V Wade has been federal law since  1973. And what’s with the attempts to ban birth control?

As Rob has said repeatedly, to a Republican, you’re a person only until you’re born. After that, sorry, you’re on your own. You can’t have health insurance, we’re going to take away your public education, we’re going to make life so hard for you that you’re going to wish you were just a fetus again.

Is this the reality we desire for democracy??

More 11s!!

Posted on February 23, 2012 by Trish and Rob

We never tire of synchros involving 11, 111, or 1111. This cluster of 11s comes from Vicki Watt, whose blog is here.  It does seem as if some of us are shadowed by these numbers. In the tarot, card 11 is Justice. In the I Ching, hexagram 11 is Peace. Perhaps there are hints in these two divination systems about Vicki’s synchro clusters involving 11s.

++

I saw your 11 post earlier in the week and wondered what you make of this – my own week has been full of 11s, or 111s.

All this week, my partner and I have been watching Lord of The Rings.  I noted that Bilbo’s Birthday Party was for his 111’th birthday.

Yesterday,  I realized that the Valentines post on the blog I was working on was my 111’th post.

Later in the day, I was working on my partner’s music blog and glanced at his Facebook ‘Like’ box.  He has 111 likes.

Today, I realized on my walk along the coast to a neighboring fishing village, that it’s the 11th of February 2012.

If you break down 11 02 2012 into 1s, you get  111 111 111  (Also, this total’s 9 – my numerology birth number)

Later, as I detoured from my usual route, I walked up through an old lane in the village and glanced at an old door, the number on it was 11.

Also, a few days ago, I saw the book Chocolat at a friend’s house and asked if I could borrow.  I briefly glanced at it and noticed that each chapter began with a date in February.  I thought that was cool because this is February – and it’s also my birth month.

However, I’d completely forgotten about this detail today, as picked up where I left off, a couple of pages into Chapter 1.

As I finished the first chapter, I realised that Chapter 2 begins ’12 February’.  So,  I looked back to see which date was given to Chapter 1.  11th February – today!
