More magical water

After seeing our New Year’s Day post on Emoto’s water, Peter Durant of New York wrote us with an interesting water tale. He sees it as a synchronicity in that he had been thinking about his well and it’s ‘magical’ qualities the night before our post went up. If Peter’s tale is true, then I’m sure that millions of men over 50 would be very interested in drinking from his water source. We’ll let Peter tell his story, which is somewhat quirky, but never strays far from the water theme.

***
 “I am very fortunate to have a 150 foot deep well below my basement with water that has magical properties.
“That said, let me put my story in perspective. You see, I live in a highly repressive district situated between the Rockefeller estate to my direct east, in Westchester County New York, and the former Harriman estate to my immediate north. These two fabulously wealthy and powerful families have played and continue to play an enormous role in shaping American and world history. The historic presence of these two families looms large in how this local area has developed into a cutting edge district featuring strict controls. One prime example of those controls, it’s almost impossible to drill private wells and enjoy your own source of water. Well diggers attest that these controls are driving them out of business. 
“In the post 911 era, control is a word that, in my humble opinion, characterizes our new way of life.
The control by a few over the many has been a reoccurring theme throughout the history of mankind. From the English speaking world, two documents shine as expressions of emancipation away from the control of the few over the many. They are the Magna Carta and the Declaration of Independence.
“These two expressions of liberation have ensured us the freedoms associated with life as we have known it. However, change has occurred and continues to unfold, and they are forewarning us of a return to an era where the few exercise total control over the many. We could be entering a period of neo-feudalism as these controls spread.
“I could cite many forms of control that are emerging but I will focus solely on one. That is for me, probably the most ominous and relevant to your water post of January 1, 2010. Water is being used by the few to control the many. It is the most obvious choice because of its extraordinarily vital nature.
“After many years of struggle with the local agents of control vis a vis my water consumption, I have reached these conclusions: One, the municipal water supply is clearly tampered with. Besides the obvious chlorine and fluorine, something else, possibly a radioactive substance is being added. How does one explain the rapid rise in frequent and urgent urinating symptoms? Is it really prostate troubles? I think not! Women also are experiencing these frequent and urgent urination symptoms.
“Two, the bottled water phenomena has been raging now for years. People are always carrying bottles of water, and for years I spent a small fortune buying bottled water. Until recently, practically all the bottled water was unadulterated. However, I believe now that a substance is added to bottled water that can be remotely activated, resulting in a need to urinate frequently and urgently. So much for that ominous bit of speculation.
“Returning now, to my well. Last night I was reflecting on how all my troubles with insane urination have magically disappeared since I reopened my well. It was dug 60 years ago by the original owners, but had not been used for 40 years.We stopped using the well back in the 1960’s when I was a young boy because during the summers, especially during the month of August, the well would run dry. It was a major inconvenience. Consequently, we hooked up to the municipal water company and our troubles were over…or so we naively believed.
“During the 1960s, ’70s, and even the ’80s, water was not controlled by the powerful few. However, as time went by, I detected a rise in the occurrence of urination problems that I theorized was from contaminated drinking water, and other drinks, soda pop, juices, whatever. I began a Spartan regime of isolating drinks to determine which were being tampered with until it seemed that everything was tampered with.
“After reaching the end of the road, the end of unadulterated drink, when my options had run out, a strange event took place. My well began to overflow after heavy rains. I cannot remember this well overflowing in the past, even during the heaviest of rains. Considering my obsession about water, this occurrence was a clear synchronicity for me.
“I became curious and looked much closer at this neglected well . The water was almost magical. It’s crystal clarity was speaking to me. “Here I am, silly fellow.” So I’ve indulged and overcome this frequent urge to urinate, and I can only attribute my recovery to the absolute beauty of this crystal clear water from my private well.
Peter

***
I remember telling Trish years ago that I wondered if the abundance of bottled water on the market was part of a scam. “Maybe it’s a mafia enterprise and there are guys in New Jersey filling bottles with tap water.” That was a joke, and I didn’t have any more facts to support it than Peter has regarding his baffling contention about bottled water. Then again, from his personal experience, his well water has proven to him all he needs to know.

Mind Over Matter


                                                               

Masaru Emoto  is a visionary Japanese researcher and author who has clearly demonstrated the way the mind effects matter. Specifically, his work is with water, showing how water exposed to various thoughts,words, toxins, prayers and photographs is altered at a molecular level. His work is documented in several stunning books. In the first photo, the crystal  was formed from thoughts of love and appreciation.

This mess? Thoughts or a photo of or just the word Hitler

This one? From “thank you.”

Heavy metal music

This crystal was shown a cherry blossom

Since the human body is mostly water, his work has important implications for the power of intent, prayer, and thought in changing our realities.

Emoto’s work is documented in several books: The Hidden Messages in Water, The Miracle of Water, The True Power of Water. When you read even one of these books, so beautifully illusrated with photos of the water crystals, you become much more conscious of the contents of your thoughts and words – and you never approach a glass of water in the same way again!

Sea Lions on Pier 39

  If you’ve ever been to San Francisco, then you undoubtedly stopped by Pier 39 to see the sea lions. When we were there several years ago, there were so many they were stacked three and four deep on the pier. In fact, last month (November 2009) scientists counted 1,500 sea lions on the pier, a record number since the sea lions first appeared 20 years ago and took over Pier 39. But the day after Thanksgiving, they left in droves and this month, there are between 10 and 40 sea lions left on the pier.

So where did they go? Why did they leave?

Scientists speculate they are following a food source. But as we’ve noted in previous posts, animals often act as oracles in predicting global events.   They are far more attuned to the environment than we are and there’s plenty of documented evidence about how animals have fled an area hours, days, even weeks before a disaster strikes.

Let’s hope their departure was attributable just to food. Besides, Pier 39 just won’t be the same without all the sea lions!

PS Musing egret left a comment about this story  under yesterday’s post without knowing we were going to post it today. She has additional information.

Karma Yoga

 

The term karma yoga typically refers to acts of service to others. I recall one of my first yoga teachers talking about karma yoga after class on days when he was looking for volunteers to stuff envelopes or do other menial tasks for him. But I’d already performed my service for him, bringing him many students.So talk of karma yoga, for me, became a signal to head for the door as quickly as possible.

But I’m using the term here in this somewhat catty post in a slightly different frame of reference. So here’s the story.

There’s a famous yoga teacher in the U.S. who became quite notorious as a womanizer. Actually, there are several of these guys. But the one I’m thinking about was notorious enough to be written about in Yoga Journal  a few years ago in an article about yoga teachers who step across the line and bed their students. And he more or less admitted his transgressions to the interviewer.

Around that time, I remember him saying in a workshop that he could easily quit yoga and go live in a cave in India by himself. Well, that didn’t exactly happen. Not yet, at least. Instead, I now I see him quite often on television advertising mattresses, of all things. There he is seated in a lotus position on a bed, alone, no yoginis in sight.  Hmm. Karma. Synchronicity.

Schubert and Terrorism

 Jung considered psychic phenomena to be a facet of synchronicity. This group would include telepathy, psychokinesis, clairvoyance, remote viewing, and precognition. Precognitive information can some through any venue – a dream, a hunch, even clues in our daily lives. 

On Christmas Eve, author Peter Levenda wrote us about a series of such clues in his life that he felt might portend an attempted terrorist attack involving planes. Here’s the email:

+++

I had been writing a novel this past year concerning a Rhode Island family named Angell.  This is based on the Lovecraft story, “The Call of Cthulhu”, in which a professor of Semitic languages — George Angell — becomes aware of the existence of a Cthulhu cult.  The action in the Lovecraft tale takes place in the 1920s.
My novel is present-day, and involves a descendant of George Angell, one Gregory Angell (a Biblical scholar) who must reaquaint himself with his weird ancestor due to the war in Iraq and Afghanistan and the possible resurgence of the Cthulhu cult.  My fictional Angells are related to a very real Angell family, one of whom died on 9/11 as his plane struck the North Tower (and this is a tie-in, which is mentioned in the novel).

Okay.  Recently, a melody by Schubert has been running through my head at odd hours of the day and night.  It’s his Piano Sonata in A.  Slowly,  I began to realize that this was the theme music for a TV sitcom, Wings,   produced by David Angell, the man who died on 9/11.  He was perhaps more famous as the producer of Cheers and Fraser.


Fraser was still on the air when 9/11 occurred, although there was no direct reference to it in the series.  However, the episode that was shot after 9/11 has Niles Crane playing the Schubert piece on the piano: a quiet homage.  He will also name his fictional new-born son David after the producer.

Okay … all this is fine.  But I have not been working on the novel for months now (can’t find a publisher … same old story … so I put off working on it).  The music has come back to nudge my consciousness for some reason.  I associate the Schubert piece with David Angell and 9/11 … what I am saying is I hope this
 is not some weird presentiment of a new terrorist attack.

It may be nothing more than my subconscious insisting that I finish the novel … but I thought I would mention this strangeness just … in case!

Considering the events on the Northwest flight Christmas morning, it looks like Peter read the clues accurately. Fortunately, passengers and crew prevented the perp from carrying out the deadly deed.  But now passengers will be subjected to the fallout.

Synchronistic Clues At the Bookstore

 

Today (12/18) Megan and I went out to do girl stuff – hair, shopping – and of course we stopped at Barnes and Noble. While she was cruising the music aisles, I went over to the science fiction section. I walked up and down the aisles, hoping a title or author would jump out at me. I had been reading the Robert Moss book – specifically about environmental clues and signs that can answer questions. So I asked: Is there any book here for me today?

At that very moment, a woman sitting in the magazine section was talking on her cell phone. Well, not exactly talking. She said only one word, three times. “No. No. No.”

Could it get any clearer than that?

I walked out of the science fiction to go look for Megan and we went home.

The Power of 10

Painting by Nicole  Cutt 
The Goddess of Fire Night Magic

 This next synchronicity came to our attention through our Google alert for the word synchronicity. Nicole Cutt is an artist, writer, and clinical psychologist who also leads vision quests. This synchronicity was originally posted on her site.
+++

Jung offered synchronicity as conclusive evidence for his concepts of archetypes and the collective unconscious and felt that it described a governing dynamic that underlies the whole of human experience and history–social, emotional, psychological and spiritual.

On the journey of living  my Vision I have had many intense experiences of synchronicity. I could, I guess, dismiss them as mere coincidence but I see them as clues to my destiny, signs that I am on the right path.  According to one of my favorite teachers, Deepak Chopra, “When you live your life with an appreciation of coincidences and their meanings, you connect with the underlying field of infinite possibilities.” He calls this state “Synchrodestiny” and says that when you are in this state it becomes possible to achieve the spontaneous fulfillment of our every desire.

The Power of 10-Tuesday night was one of those times of intense synchronicity.  I was facilitating a Women’s Vision Quest session in Charleston, WV. It was a particularly powerful night and you could feel the energy in the room. I sat with a group of 10 women sharing their visions with one another. They came from all different walks of life and had very different visions but there were so many themes that kept coming up again and again; following your dreams no matter what, overcoming fear and inertia, a drive to find their purpose, fear of success/failure, the struggle between putting others first vs themselves.

But there was also another theme that kept cropping up; 10. Woman after woman kept saying things like, “it was 10 yrs ago”, or “I’ve known you for 10 yrs, or “I thought about this 10 yrs ago but have only acted on it now.” We all started to notice this and began commenting. 10 just kept coming up again and again.  We noticed that there were 10 women in the group, then I recalled that 10 had been my magic number, the number of women I hoped to attend!

What does this all mean? Is it merely coincidence?  I might say so except for the fact that whenever I am experiencing a high degree of synchronicity it is always a sign that I am firmly on the right path. Everything feels right and a magic hangs in the air. As I drove home the next day through the gorgeous mountain terrain I also decided to take this as a sign that 2010 is going to be a great year!

A Healing Dream

In an earlier post, we talked about Robert Moss’s book,  The Three “Only” Things, Tapping the Power of Dreams, Coincidence, and Imagination.  This story is in the dream section, where there’s a wonderful story about the healing power of dreams.

An author,  Wanda Burch (She Who Dreams) asked a doctor to look at a mole on  the sole of her left foot. He determined that the mole needed to be removed. Even though it was just minor surgery, it would mean she would have to stay off her feet for several days. So before her scheduled surgery, Wanda posed a question as she was falling asleep: Why did she have to go through this? Wasn’t there another way of dealing with the mole?

In her dream that night, she was inspecting the mole on the bottom of her foot. “Then a hand appeared from out of nowhere – as if out of a cloud – holding a large black pencil. The hand drew a circle around the mole, and the mole popped off and disappeared.”

The next morning, Wanda looked at her foot – and the mole was completely gone.

Has anyone else had an experience like this?

Merry Christmas!

 A bit of Christmas day cheer – notice the lights on the house on the right. Ditto, indeed.

And here’s one little holiday synchronicity. A couple of days ago, we left Noah, our new golden retriever, at home for an hour. When we came back, he had snatched one of the Christmas cards from the book shelves where they were displayed. He put a few teeth marks into the card and battered it a bit,  but we were still able to see that it was from – Janice Carlson, who just happens to be an animal intuitive from Minneapolis, who specializes in dogs!

What were the chances that he would pick that one?
+++
And that leads to this heart-warming doggie tale.
 

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO EVERYONE!
