the Buddhists warn against. It can be mis-used and may bring terrible karma. Ego wants and wants and wants and never gains enough. Chasing desire creates demons.

However, for those who understand that surrender to God is the finest path, more asides:

-I was taught in visualization to hold the image or sentence you desire on the mental screen, within a decently wide red circle. This locks it into the mind. "I WILL lucid dream" is an example. "Joy to the World" is a far better example.

-Shakti Gawain's book "Creative Visualization" is excellent.

-Emmet Fox's "The Sermon on the Mount" amounts to what the Christian Scientists call Malpractice, in that it has encoding which activates the mental screen. As warned above, also about Kundalini, Tantra, and Kriya Yoga, if you have any residual negativity in your chakras, you will learn about it very, very quickly. Do not use if you tend toward depression or any negativity. Even if you are fooling yourself about such. Do not screw with these things if you consider yourself anywhere near a beginner, or if you tend toward anger (denied or not).

And be certain that what you want is what you want.

I note that fear, being the opposite of love, is one of the first things bubbling up in everyone as the Shift increases. I have in the past caused fear in others to keep them at a distance (I am horrifically sensitive with nearly no boundaries, and saying "no" to people only causes them to jab at me all the more fiercely), and their fear is steadily increasing, even though I am past that sort of behaviour and planning nothing other than my own recovery (and a satisfactory distance from those who choose fear, and to act on it). It is to shrug. Perception is reality, unfortunately, and we may expect increasing fear, and people acting out on fear, as it either clears or erupts in each and every one of us.

The other night, the "Flaming Moe" Simpsons episode re-ran. I noted, during Homer's hallucination sequence, that he repeated "mmmMoe" over and over, two syllables.

In WALL*E, there is a character M-0. Who pronounced it with two syllables.

I note Brad Bird's involvement in both.

Yes, in Wall*E I've already noted the two Alien references (Sigourny Weaver as the computer voice, nice irony, and the alternating flute tones referring to the soundtrack) and of course the 2001 references...interesting to possibly have a Simpsons reference!

If I only had the ability to set the two clips side-by-side for comparison...

Why yes, I am a sound geek. Worked in the sound design industry for some 25 years... (shakes cane at young whippersnappers)

Synchronicity, Syntony, Synergy. Keep a watch out as many blatant exceptions to the ordinary may relate spiritual information. Especially if your attention is drawn, over and over, to any particular item.

I hope that you are guided to understanding. (You -can- ask for explanations...for energy, insight, support, perspective and experience...so tell us what these things mean, to you..

The Shift will at some point become noticable to the average Jane and Joe. It's already visible, if you correlate the number of celebrity deaths occuring right after the very important summer solstice. (Oh, what a writhing can of worms has just been opened...)Also, the increase in Muckers is telling. (Read John Brunner's classic and prophetic "Stand on Zanzibar"!)

And that they also have commercials, so the injury is on top of the insult?

And there's still nothing on to watch?

Pink Floyd were optimistic with "13 channels of shit on the TV to choose from...".

Well, how about a "Teh Lounge" channel, for us? That would be...something

I am not talking about myself.

If you payed attention to my blog, which is very basic yet entirely empiric through my own experience/insight, it is not possible to continue surviving much longer if harboring these sorts of determined, deep negativities. Period. If it -is- possible, it will be with increasing distress. I am working on recovery and simply wish to be left alone. I do not expect to be believed (and obviously will not be), yet allow the actuality to be the proof of the pudding. If I can survive, I am changed and dedicated to positive change. There it is. Sit back, watch, take it in and leave me alone as my words are found to be true.

Excellent question, and it is currently mine as well.

I'm very sorry about your old relationship. Once bitten, twice shy, for good reason. You need to understand that you do indeed have good reason to be shy. This validates your need to be safe and stable, and honors your own value. You are already honoring your own value through taking these actions. Be certain to remember this, as it builds strength at your core. "I am already taking steps that honor myself." If this makes any sense...which segues nicely into your quote/question...

My ability to trust has been smashed, and smashed again (typed "shamed" instead of "smashed"; definitely Freud in the House..we blame ourselves for others' attitudes and damaging behaviour...Let go of self-blame and shame at vulnerability. Admit to hurt and vulnerability, and it begins to heal.). I once could hear my heart clearly, and it was always correct. I've ended up second-guessing it and going in the wrong direction for so long, that it's now completely silent. My angels do overtime with guidance, to compensate...it requires being quiet, asking for help, and being willing to receive the help when it comes, especially if it contradicts what the mind and emotions want (even beg for). Especially again, if we are up the wrong tree and the intuition/guidance states this; we must be open to the potential that we are wrong, and be willing to make a change (and sometimes to acknowledge that we are wrong, if we're good at hiding behind what we want in the face of facts to the contrary).

Sit, breathe, send love, and ask for assistance on specific questions. Spend time helping others and the Universe will automatically help YOU. Spend time with the things that give you joy, and you will clear your worries, allowing for greater ease and flow (and also, pray for ease and grace regarding your big questions and suffering). God be with you!

In the movies, if you hack off a tit, it's rated R. If you kiss a tit, it's rated X.

We love murder and violence and hate sex and our own bodies. At least, that's what any archeologist would conclude from studying our media.

the timing seems...oddly guided.

Thanks for the encouragement.

I remember a very good short science fiction story where a Japanese Artificial Intelligence formed an underground network of people who would help others, at the AI's direction. If the AI noted someone in distress, it phoned the nearest networker and directed them to be of specific aid: "At xxx and xxx streets, there is a man sitting on a bench, holding his head in his hands. He was fired today and has recently lost his wife. His favorite drink is a large latte with whipped cream and a cherry." The networker walks up and hands him the drink, which he recognizes as his favorite. He's stunned, and it significantly changes his day for the better. This is my vision of how people should be helping people. Peace..

if there are negative intentions.

I for one would find it far more likely that lifeforms rather unlike us would be the first to make contact. Or at least, it would be far easier to swallow. Any group going to great lengths to make us comfortable (or drop our guard) would be more likely to have negative intent. Aliens faced with both the interest in meeting others/trading experience -and- the barrier of earing trust due to patent dissimilarity, would be most likely to earn my initial trust. It would take humility to work at cross-understanding on both our parts. To see ourselves in something dissimilar, and to learn from it, would be wonderful, especially if it went both ways.

It is always important to say...beware Greeks bearing gifts.

The ethics and social repercussions of meeting the Other would be indescribably significant. There are still those who raise the rebel flag against the North winning the Civil War, and freeing the African-American. We've seen blatant racism in the Katrina debacle, straight from the Bush pod, as well as against Obama during and after the election. It's still there, despite what Lincoln did for us. So, imagine what effect the Significantly Other would have.

I've read many excellent books on the subject, but wonder if any of them would truly capture the extent of such an event and its aftermath. Part of me longs to see; part of me fears it. If I have fear, then others may have terror, or not enough security in weltanschauung for it to be considered safe.

I just don't know.

technology has been, and has been seen, as being larger than we are, as individuals. It is no longer controllable by a single individual. We have built something larger than ourselves, at least concerning contained power (versus large buildings, etc.). Terminator is another iteration in this philosophy. Note in the film, the number of times humans are slaved to technology, or something as simple as the Walkman utterly removing a human from perceiving survival-level signals from its environment. And how even technology smashes itself.

Scary movies have always been about our most recent gestalt-level fear. This time, it's "Machines: Servants or Master?".

The musical group Kraftwerk ("Power Plant/Station") have long expounded upon these ideas. At what point does technology cease serving and begin demanding? Hint: It already has. Especially if you are on a computer, reading this.

(Cue Terminator =synthesizer= soundtrack...tum tum ta, ta tum...)

Good luck.
