Understanding the Separation
What we need comes to us at just the right moment. In the past few weeks what I needed in order to fit the pieces together and create at a level of conceptual understanding arrived, one, two, three. Much gratitude :) In this video interview of Dolores Cannon, she gives the simplest, most straightforward explanation of the separating of the old Earth and the New Earth.
It's kind of contradictory to be writing about reaching for such a realization, when I wrote a few days ago about the importance of accepting the unknown. And at the same time, it is really important to be honing in on Truth. I've always found that if I understand the particular process of transformation I'm undergoing, it makes it easier to adjust to the twists and turns along the way and to handle the dark passages. Even when I don't know which way is up and which way is down, I can still keep my internal balance if I know what road I'm on. Comfort in recognizing how far I'm come on the journey. We're entering the most challenging phase of the transition, and so I hold on to a few things that bring comfort and grounding.
The Dolores Cannon interview followed closely behind a few other descriptions about the physical separation of the planet as it shifts fully into the 5th dimension, leaving old Earth in physical form in the 4th. It's a difficult concept to grasp, as she points out. Took a good while for me, a gradual process in keeping with the gradual nature of our Ascension. Now the pieces all come together in my mind. Still lots of unknowns, yet I have a conceptual framework. We've already separated to a large extent. It occurred back in September 2008, just before the fall of the markets. It's become more and more apparent that a minority of us are operating on a different channel from the rest, the sheeple. We no longer understand their channel and they don't even know ours exists.
I'm also very relieved that at some point in the next few years, exactly when we can't be certain, we can leave the craziness, violence, greed and manipulation behind. I'm so tired of all the unkindness to each other and to our planet. So very, very tired of it all.
And it's getting crazier out there. Now 30,000 more human being will be ordered into war to kill and destroy. (Yeah Wikileaks for revealing the Truth! You're my heroes) More lies and cover-up about the still leaking oil and methane gas. HB 5741, just introduced and referred to the House Committee on Armed Services, will establish mandatory service, either in combat or for "Homeland Security" for all adults ages 18 to 42. I posted this on Facebook and not a single person commented on it???? This is reestablishing the draft!!!! With no means to be excused. Just as predicted by No Eyes back in Phoenix Rising, and the Web Bots, and on and on. I'd say they'll never get that through, but Congress does what they're told by the Illuminati government, not the people. Moving close to the Canadian boarder, with my daughter and son-in-law in tow, looks better and better even though I don't like cold climates.
I can get all riled up when I see what the dark forces are trying (specifically chosen word) to do. And I'm full of glee when their plans backfire, and backfire they will. I trust. I trust, and trust, and trust. The Light forces will prevail. We are transitioning to Oneness in New Earth.

Just Show Up
Over the years since then I tried to do work that made a difference in people's lives. Not because of the memory, but because if I was going to work, then why waste my time and energy on something that earned me money but didn't contribute to the overall good of the world. I ended up worked in areas most people avoided; assisting people with HIV/AIDS, people transitioning at the end of their life in hospice, advocating for adults and children leaving abusive relationships. It felt worthwhile to work in ways that helped people. At that same time I always knew none of these endeavors were the work I came here to do. That part I still didn't understand.
Over the years I received guidance that it really didn't matter what profession I chose, it was up to me. That I came here to assist and there are many ways to assist. Many ways to assist, hmmm. Over time my understanding of the ways we assist has expanded greatly. At first I thought assisting meant helping to make things better for others in a very concrete way. Actually assisting covers a broad spectrum. Gradually, I've learned to understand this.
Many times in my life I've triggered other people's buttons without meaning to at all. It used to cause me great sadness because my intent was well-meaning, my feelings those of kindness. And here was another person all flipped out and either shunning or ranting at me. A few years ago I finally saw that it was one of the ways I assist. In these situations without intending to, I was raising another person's unresolved issues so that they could deal with them, if they so chose. While never conscious on my part, and usually not on theirs either, I was assisting them just the same.
One of the most profound ways we assist each other and the planet has rarely been recognized until recently. It is our presence. We've all, including me, been well conditioned and dulled from an awareness of the power of our energy. Such a crock. We make a big difference just by showing up. The simple, yet not so simple fact of our individual energy being present on the planet alters and raises the vibration. We assist by our presence in the community we live in, we assist by our presence in the room. Just by being here, I change everything. And so do you.
When It's Excessively Hot Outside, Treat Yourself Well
Today is the second day in a row it's been 100 degrees, with humidity making it feel like 115. This is my answer: Gazpacho served with fresh baked Focaccia...
Gazpacho
3 very large, ripe tomatoes
1 1/2 cucumbers, partially peeled and seeded
1 1/2 green peppers
1 sweet red pepper
1/2 small red onion
2 cloves garlic, pressed
1/3 cup chopped cilantro
1/3 cup wine vinegar
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon sea salt
lots of fresh cracked pepper
Chop the vegetables into large chunks. In a food processor, pulse the tomatoes. once they are well chopped, spoon about half out into a large bowl, then process the remainder until it's a smooth puree, add to the chopped tomatoes. Repeat with cucumbers, peppers, and onion, combining with the chopped/pureed vegetables when done. Add the crushed garlic, chopped cilantro, vinegars, oil, salt and pepper, stirring until thoroughly combined. Cover the bowl and refrigerate until chilled. Taste and adjust seasonings before serving. Gazpacho gets better as the flavors meld together.
Focaccia
1 1/2 teaspoons dry yeast
1 1/3 cups very warm water
1 teaspoon sugar or honey
3 cups white whole wheat flour or bread flour, divided
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons fine sea salt
1 -2 teaspoons coarse sea salt
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
Sprinkle the yeast and teaspoon of sugar over the warm water in a two cup measuring cup. Let sit for five minutes. It will get foamy. Pour the yeast mixture into a large mixing bowl. Stir in 2 cups of white flour and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and set in a warm place to rise until doubled, about an hour to an hour and a half.
Stir in the salt, 1 cup of whole wheat flour, then stir in enough white flour to make a firm dough. Knead the dough on a floured board for five minutes. Form into a ball. Place the dough in a clean bowl, coat the dough with olive oil, cover with the damp cloth. Let rise until doubled, about an hour.
Punch down the dough, knead briefly. Cut the dough in half. You can either make two 9" x 9" Focaccias, or freeze half the dough for later.
Roll or pat the dough into a 9" square. Place the dough into a 9" x 9" pan oiled with olive oil. Coat the top of the dough with more olive oil, cover with the damp cloth and allow to rise. After about 45 minutes, preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
When doubled, make indentations all over the dough with your finger tips. Sprinkle the top with the coarse sea salt and the chopped rosemary. bake for 15 minutes. cut into squares or rectangles. Serve with olive oil mixed with salt and fresh cracked pepper and/or grated Parmesan cheese for dipping.
Note: this dough makes wonderful pizza crust too, provided you have a baking stone.
Pizza
Preheat oven and a baking stone to 500 degrees.
Roll roll half the dough into a rough circle. Sprinkle a little corn meal under dough on the bread board. Then top with a thin layer of your favorite tomato sauce, a layer of fresh spinach leaves or scattered dabs of pesto, grated mozzarella cheese, and sliced peppers, mushrooms, artichoke hearts, crumbled feta. Carefully slide the pizza onto the hot baking stone. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, until bubbling and slightly browned.
Accepting the Unknown
"Part of the biggest step is for those who have chosen to expand to be able to walk without needing to know, and this is not to be confused with true knowing which comes from trust and faith in a perfect universal order. To know that there are no certain answers, that the unknown is the basis of all creativity, and that all need to accept the unknown in order to discover and develop to their full potential."
Accept the unknown; Basis of all creativity; In order to discover and develop our true potential.
During the late 1980's, I worked at a small grass-roots organization in Washington, DC doing case management and counseling with people living with HIV/AIDS. It was early in the epidemic, AZT was the primary antiviral drug, the average life expectancy was 6 months, a number of long-term survivors made it two years or more, despite the toxicity of AZT. Four months after I started working there, all three of my coworkers had died of complications from the disease. The Chairman of the organization's board of directors begged me please not to leave, they were searching for replacements.
But I had not considered leaving. You see, there is a major benefit that comes from working with people dealing with a terminal illness. We have only right now. None of us can count on what will be tomorrow. Clear up your relationships. Each day do what matters and makes a difference in the world. Do not wait for another day to express your feelings or to tell someone what they mean to you.
My clients role modeled this each day. Working there kept me in the now. Because we don't know. What will happen is always unknown and when I accept this, I am always rich in the moment and my days are filled with joy and appreciation for all that I am given.

Re-Direction Energies Towards Expansion
I know, both in my heart and mind, that I am Divinely protected. Many of us are. My guidance clearly stated that I am safe here for now, they are working on assistance to ensure this. Though the time to move is near, I do not need to rush. This may only mean the difference between moving in three months as opposed to six weeks, though in this bit of extra time I sense that more good will flow from me and to me throughout the transition. Any protection extended to me will also extend to this wonderful community of people I live amongst. Whatever benefit my energy provides as I move about the community can have it's effect. Giving a little more time allows for the gathering of whatever I will need in whatever new place that I'm headed. All is in Universal Order.
I have great and deep love and care for humanity. Part of me wants to warn and alert people to what is unfolding. However, the other part of me knows this is not my role, and it backfires on me whenever I start telling anyone about the need to watch what is really going on. They don't want to hear. It's better for me to recognize that each person has their own process of awakening, even if they have to be shaken by events in order to wake up. So here I am this morning reminding myself about the wisdom of trusting the process, for me and for all others. Trust the Process. I don't have all the answers, nor do I really know what will transpire, even when I look at what is taking place right Now and can see what is a logical course to follow.
Rather than add my emotional energy to the collective energy pool swarming around the issues of what will happen next, I am making the conscious choice to focus my energy on expanding my inner awareness. Some days I'll be better at this than others, I'm sure. By increasing my receptivity to my inner prompting, I can pick up any information I need to navigate through the rapids of this great shift. And that's the goal for each of us anyway, to expand our powers of awareness into multidimensional mode.
To this end, some more old emotional gunk acquired as a bi-product of life recently surfaced to be examined, resolved, and released. Just when I think I'm about done with this clearing process, here comes a few more issues to deal with. Actually I'm grateful this is happening. Each resolved and released issue is one less weight to carry, and one less thing to alter and sometimes distort my perception.
I'm getting to the foundational layers of the internalized messages that have told me I'm not worth noticing, I'm not deserving, I'm not worthy of respect. The legacy of a childhood of inattention, disregard, criticism, judgment, and no affection. Passed on by parents who received the same in their childhoods. Many, many years I've worked on peeling through the layers of Self to cull out these messages that wove themselves through my being. Is this the last layer?? I sincerely hope so, and if it's not, then I'll just keep peeling away until I've discarded the last remnants of this pack of lies. I'll know I've succeeded when I no longer catch myself responding with explanations and attempts to justify myself in the face of someone's subtle judgments, as I did the other day.
All the self work pays off, believe me, it's the most important work we can do. At least IMHO. My daughter told me once that she has never doubted for a moment that she is loved, respected, and valued unconditionally. One of the greatest gifts I've ever received was hearing that. It means I broke the destructive patterns that ran through my bloodlines. Of this I'm immensely proud. Perhaps one day in the future every person will know without a doubt that they are of immense value, worthy and respected, and deeply loved for who they are. Imagine the difference in our world then. We will have created Utopia.

Readying to Be of Service As The GulF Oil Disaster Unfolds
Often in the midst of a challenge a gift comes to us unexpectedly, and the gift changes our interior landscape. Our inner tone shifts, heaviness vanishes, and our perception clears. I share what appeared as a gift to me the other night, "The Relationship To Gaia".
I'm reminded of the last time I traveled by plane. I flew from Asheville, which is nestled in the juncture of the Blue Ridge and Smoky Mountains. I had a window seat. As we ascended, I looked down at the mountains with their carpet of millions of green trees. The expansiveness of our Earth grew in my vision as the plane rose. Inside I felt the Earth speaking. How much she loves us all. How she provides everything we need, presented to us amidst the miles and miles of every stretching beauty. Gaia loves us so very much.
Each day I stand barefoot in the grass, reach down placing my palms upon Earth and tell her how I love her throughout my being.
This morning I am incredulous. It has seemed to me as the disaster in the GOM grows and the intentional poisoning of the waters and air proceeds with such stealth, that people would finally begin waking up. Is this not large and glaring enough???? Yet I hear statements such as these almost daily... "People can't leave Florida! They'll never be able to sell their houses." "What's corexit?" "I really don't want to hear all about what's happening in the Gulf. I prefer to just send my love and prayers to the dolphins and turtles." Well what has to happen before it matters to you!!!!
Waters flow. Winds Blow. They circulate and permeate. Water and air. The two most basic requirements for life. Everything is interconnected. Everything is interdependent.
There is no mistake in the name given to this dispersant. Corexit. Core Exit. They've now dumped "OVER 42 Million Gallons of Corexit into the ocean" according to a Federal government witness at the hearings taking place in New Orleans. Corexit will usher many out of the planet.
The malevolence continues until people pay attention to what is going on and stand up against it. There is the mis-perception in the New Age community that paying attention to negative things happening in the Now makes them manifest. Well they are already here! They've manifested here now because of apathy and inaction. They've manifested here now because people abdicated and signed over their Free Will, rather than defend their right to choose how the Earth, their home, is treated. Not paying attention to what is happening right now is Denial.
I'm beginning to comprehend that most people will not wake up until their individual life is irreparably altered. Until they are faced with the situation of having no money and/or no food and/or no water. The malevolent destruction must appear in their own small world before they take notice and realize they could have done something to prevent it. It makes me sad. I'm deeply disappointed that oh so many, many people have forgotten how to be Human Beings. I've always held such hope for the peoples of Earth.
After two years of existing in a holding pattern of sorts while waiting for the shift to really get underway, it's now time for me to move into action. First downsizing significantly so I travel lighter, then a quick relocation to where I'm needed next. The holding pattern had become a draining way to live from day to day. It's with much relief and growing excitement that I prepare now for the move north. Intuitively, I now know the placement, the place where I'm being called into service. The details of getting there always fall into place like clockwork when we're headed in the necessary direction. Work awaits me. There will be much for many of us to do as the turbulence increases in the coming weeks and months. I focus now on being in placement and ready.
Many years ago I had a reading which told me I would eventually work finding homes for many displaced people. Couldn't imagine then the path that would lead me there, how this would come about, or what would cause many displaced people. Clear as day now. The displaced will be arriving very soon, in droves. And I intend to be in place and ready when they they arrive. Many basic needs to be met. Systems to be designed to meet those needs for shelter and food. Spirit speaks from within. I do my best to listen and act.

Channeled Message with Encouraging Words About the Oil Disaster
This message was transmitted by Commander Soltec, Head of Scientific Division of the Ashtar Command, through his scribe Dr. Edwin M. Young. It accurately reflects the current thinking at the etherian level. ~Ashtar
Ceres Anthonious "Toniose" Soltec: The Big Squeeze ~ 6/27/10
Received by Dr. Edwin M. Young
An exceptional message from Commander Soltec about the Gulf Oil Spill:
Good evening, my scribe. Yes, it is your longtime friend and scientific colleague, Toniose. And yes, you have been hearing parts of this message for many days now, as certain ones, more attuned than most to Truth, have been moved to ask you about the mess in the Gulf. The question indeed compels the answer. Thank you for taking the time to write for me, that we might provide insight for a wider questioning audience.
By all means, I would expect nothing less than that you demand a proper identification of my energy, no matter how familiar my energy signature might seem: I am more formally known as Ceres Anthonious “Toniose” Soltec. I am the Geophysical Commander of this present Earth Transition Project. I am of the team known as the Host of God. I come in the Radiant Light of the One who created All That Is, in service to those who seek Truth. My domain of expertise and responsibility reaches far beyond what is known as the science of geophysics on your planet, since your current level of understanding lacks much in the way of appreciation for the CONSCIOUS nature of great and compassionate planetary beings like your Mother Earth.
Many ones at various stages of spiritual awakening are asking at this time for insights about the tragic situation unfolding in the Gulf of Mexico region of your
As we of the Host have told you many times in our past messages, this is an era of The Great Awakening and The Great Cleansing, when important lessons in spiritual growth would play themselves out in your physical arena in an accelerated and sometimes intensely blunt fashion. This exercise applies as much to the Dark Energies, who are valiantly attempting to hold onto their longstanding planetary control mechanisms (especially money and energy), as it applies to those of you operating in more of a Lighted manner.
The more aligned with the Light you are, the more comfortable you will become as the incoming Light continues to increase in both intensity and frequency. In response to this present challenging environment, you have, for some time now, been constantly making adjustments in the underlying energy structures which support and maintain your physical, mental, and emotional bodies—especially as you shed buried emotional scars left over from past lessons in this Earth schoolroom. Like a tennis ball thrown into a swimming pool full of activity, you may get jostled around a lot, and temporarily even get submerged now and then, but you’ll find yourself generally floating to the water’s surface, so to speak, due to the buoyancy that results from your Light. As we have long suggested, making an effort each day to be quiet and connect within to Source will go a long way toward bringing a measure of balance and inner peace to offset the outer chaos that may be unfolding all around you as matters intensify between the Light and Dark.
That outer chaos is largely the result of how the incoming Light is bothering the Dark Energies. Like the melting of snow-men and their elaborate snow-forts as the seasons move into the warmth of summer, these Dark ones are experiencing the gradual yet utter dissolution of all that they have worked so diligently to achieve over many centuries of clever manipulation of humanity. Thus you are observing (and perhaps even experiencing firsthand through such as economic hardship) their roaring tantrums over this losing situation.
Their anger is often vented through stepped-up manipulation of negative-impact events, carried out mostly through various worldwide human puppetry, some of whom you recognize as the so-called elite controllers of your planet and their international corporate minions. These shenanigans are typically designed to generate outpourings of fear and anger from the masses (especially hoping to pull down you highly Lighted ones) since the more low-frequency energies they cause to be sent into the planetary ethers, the more that helps to buy them time by keeping the “temperature” cooler in terms of the energy climate they need to remain comfortable and effective. So the less YOU become caught up in THEIR shenanigans (through contributing any outpourings of negative emotions), the less they can continue to tolerate remaining around you or this planet.
My scribe had quite a laugh a few weeks ago when, in response to a friend’s question, I first shared a mental picture of where these Dark Energies and their puppetry are stuck at this time in the unfolding events of your planetary transformation: Perhaps you have seen comic-relief video clips on the evening news of some “unfortunate” thief, who had been intent on robbing some closed convenience store in the middle of the night, but who had managed to get himself royally stuck in an air-conditioning ceiling vent that was supposed to be his clever route of entry into the store. Consider the point in his plight shortly BEFORE he finally has to “cry uncle” and pull out his cell phone to call 911 for help; it is a point of the most sickening frustration, then anguish, and finally, realization and acceptance of the inevitable. Once he makes that call his game is over, as he and his intentions become exposed for all to see on the next day’s local news.
It would be useful to keep that picture of the ill-fated thief in mind—stuck, as your expression goes, “between a rock and a hard place”—as you watch what is going on with the extremely toxic oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico (among other unravelings of the Dark Energy power structure). Intense and profound spiritual lessons are underway on many levels. Let us consider a few of the perhaps less obvious ones:
First of all, the very corporate arm of the elite who have consistently (and often ruthlessly) suppressed, for most of the last century, all of the so-called “free-energy” modalities gifted to your planet through various inventors, that would have rendered oil (a natural fluid of Mother Earth’s circulatory system) unnecessary ever as an energy source, are the ones squarely and quite publicly “on trial” at the center of this mess in the Gulf. And all attempts to soften the situation through expensive media PR campaigns have only backfired on them.
But such “poetic justice” is hardly the end of their dilemma. Those who operate under Dark control are never known to exercise any degree of intelligent or moral balance in their pursuits (think, for example, Bernie Madoff), and this case is no exception.
So you have a situation that, on nearly all fronts, is actually beyond your present human technology to fix. Various attempts that have been paraded on your news programs are more like dog-and-pony shows, meant to give an illusion of engineering competency. Of course the fervent hope is that you-the-people aren’t technically savvy enough to see through such charades, especially with the media’s lapdog collusion. But while such deceptions may buy some time, do you perhaps see a parallel between this jam and that of the thief stuck in the air-conditioning vent?
So now I ask you a question to ponder: WHO do you suppose these stuck, oil-soaked thieves will eventually—if begrudgingly—have to call for 911 help? Hint: It’s certainly not the first time we of the Host (and our Galactic Federation brotherhood) have been called to respond to dangerous matters that have gotten out-of-control on your planet (think, for example,
Yes, the call (911 or other) most certainly compels the answer. But what form that answer takes is yet to unfold in the fullness of lessons of most value to the spiritual growth of all. I leave you with more than enough to ponder for now.
I am Commander Ceres Anthonious “Toniose” Soltec of the Host of God of Light and Creation. My duty is that of friend, teacher, and wayshower to all who search for Truth as a path to Wisdom. Salu.
Love to All!

Learning to Accept the Unknown
My plan for moving north is taking shape and at the same time, as more news comes in, feeling more urgent. To be honest, this is all feeling very surreal. Two weeks ago I intended to stay here long term. I was planning to buy the house I'm living in. I was visualizing all the raised garden beds completed, full of rich soil and lush green plants. I was mapping out a fruit orchard and planting hedges of raspberries, blackberries, and trellised grapes. I had no desire to move and didn't see the need to. I've quickly made the mental/emotional switch and accepted that here we go again! Pack up and off to yet another place I don't know and have no connection to anyone. The past three moves were good preparation, I'm not afraid of relocating to an unfamiliar place. If you're facing this, it's not so hard as it appears. It can be a really good experience. The unexpected can turn out to be awesome. There are kind, good people everywhere.
Today I'm at the stage of taking a deep breath before plunging in on selling furniture and unneeded possessions, and packing up. It feels completely overwhelming in one way, and not so bad in another. At least I know where to begin. Photographs and posting on Craig's List.
I had a reading done last week asking for clarifications about my prompts to relocate. I received much guidance about listening to what comes through the ethers and to be accepting of being in a state of unknowing, rather than to seek certainty ahead. That we all must accept the unknowing. It's a big part of our growth through these times. I find myself walking a tenuous line between gathering news of what is currently going on in the world and keep myself from being sucked into the emotions of what is being said by others. A challenge to stay clear as to my own feelings and inner promptings and not be swayed by others' emotions. It's the goal for each of us going forward - stay tuned to your own inner voice, your heart, and your feelings. Feelings carry massive amounts of information with them, if we listen.
There's another transition going on within me at this same time, actually there are many, but I'll focus on this one. Over the past three years I was given the opportunity to heal and center back into who I am after a long period of intense work, little time for reflection, and much sadness in what occurred, which left me greatly burnt out and way out of balance. It was a huge gift from the universe to receive the space to rejuvenate and recoup, to release issues and feelings stored in my emotional, mental, and physical body, to ground, recenter, and expand. I benefited greatly from this time and space, and am extremely grateful. Before this gift, I had never had the time, space, and financial resources to withdraw totally into myself, to just be, to stay primarily in isolation.
That period is over now, I know this. Though I'm having some difficultly emerging back into a more active life. I welcome the resurgence, and at the same time, struggle against a too familiar inertia from the past three years. Anyway, it's got to end now, there's too much to do today, and tomorrow, and the next day. Feeling my energy moving in action is what feels best now. Two things would really help though. First is a drop from the mid-90 degree temperatures and oppressive humidity that have been here for the past month. I like warm weather, but it's just too damn hot. Second is to have some company in this endeavor. Having not lived here long, I don't know a lot of people, least not the kind one can call and say, "Hey, can you help me with packing?" There are no long-term friends or family nearby. Many hands make light work. I wish my daughter and son-in-law 2b were here. That we were doing this together. It is our time, the time for all of us to pull together.
Where I'm relocating to hasn't come into focus yet. It will, that I have no doubt. This trust feels good. After much inner work, much learning and growing, here is the chance to put all the learning into action. To live with the unknown and trust that we can stay fluid, holding the vibration of joy and appreciation, and knowing that the right doors will open for us as we need them.

If We Tense Up, We Can't Dance
What I realized that settled my decision is that I will not be comfortable living from day to day watching the winds. I received guidance that I would move by November. That's only four months away. Moving now feels right. Waiting doesn't. My ease of decision surprises to me in a number of ways. I just moved here 8 months ago. I'm in a beautiful area and a wonderful piece of land, one that is perfect for creating my Domain, as envisioned by Anastasia in the Ringing Cedars books (see link on side bar). After a number of relocations rather close together, I imagined that I was in a place where I could settle in, really put down roots, and remain, without further upheaval. Well the picture just changes shape. Yet having made the decision to move, I'm not experiencing any of the sadness and resistance to releasing my attachment to this place that I would have expected. Interesting observation. I've changed.
I don't know exactly where I'm headed and that feels OK, which is another very surprising aspect. I'm one of those people who always has to have all the details of the path worked out before I would decide to head down that new path. or I used to be. I see I'm different now. This time I'm content to focus on what needs to be done today, like making a list of what I want to sell or give away, placing ads on Craig's list, sorting through old files to be shredded. As to where to move, I've started a list of options for consideration. This time I'm trusting that the perfect option will present itself, even if it's a temporary one, while I allow the pieces to unfold and come together for the longer term destination. This is a new way of approaching things for me. And you know, it feels really good.
After much work, I find I really, finally, understand and trust that I don't have to force and wrap up the conclusion. Instead, if I put out what I want to appear for me, like a new job where I can be of assistance to others and a living situation that meets basic criteria for me and my dogs, and I trust they will emerge from one of the options before me, what I want will be there. I get to create what I want and need in this way. When I try to sort out every detail of the full solution, as I used to do in the past, I was actually interfering with the Universe providing what I asked for. Like trying to get a seedling to grow quickly by prodding the soil, rather than Knowing it will sprout and grow. We just need to plant the seed, add water in the form of flowing trust, continue forward taking all actions that support our vision, and allow the Divine Creator to take care of the growth into blossoming.
Since making the decision, my energy has made a complete shift. I feel like the On switch was just engaged. I'm re-energized. That's an indication, the best indication, that I've chosen a good coarse for me.
As the shifting increases in the days and months ahead, it will be important for all of us to accept uncertainty and unknowing, where before we may have felt a sense of certainty. In reality, nothing is certain except the present. We can no longer pretend that things are going to be the same tomorrow or next week, or six months from now. Many are going to have a very difficult time with this as their reality of "the way things are" suddenly isn't there any more. Yet it's from the unknowing that creation takes place. If we let go, accept the unknowing, and flow with what's here now, knowing that we create what appears round the corner through our intent and vision, our trust and faith, we'll flow through each shift and bend. Flexible strength is a good thing to aim for. If we tense up, we can't dance.

Trust and Faith in Our Response-Ability
As the crow flies, it's 450 miles from the GOM to the town where I live. It's only 250 miles from the GOM to where my daughter and future son-in-law live. Air currents move generally north to northeast up from the Gulf. Given how high the chemical levels are along the Gulf coast, and these levels are continuously fed by the millions of gallons of oil and millions of gallons of dispersant being used. Logic says that the toxic chemicals are spreading with the air currents.
It's clear the federal government is not planning to initiate evacuations. They are keeping a lid on the situation, distracting the public with EPA's false air quality reports. They're waiting for people to begin to catch on by themselves to the need to relocate north, and in the mean time allowing people to be exposed to deadly levels of hydrogen sulfide, benzene, methylene chloride, and whatever other chemicals are at harmful levels. This example of extreme disregard for fellow humanity highlights for me what matters, we are each and all divine beings deserving of respect, appreciation, kindness, and love.
What I still find somewhat difficult in situations like this, is differentiating between my intuitive promptings and inner guidance, and the churnings of my monkey mind. I try to go with what comes forth when I first wake up, because we're closer to our higher level of knowing when we first come back to a conscious awake state from sleep. And I also get very strong messages while doing the dishes or some other routine chore, or while driving. But still, I find myself unsure as to the safety of my present location, and I want to make the right decisions. I'm aware that after moving three times in the past three years, I hold a strong desire to settle now that I'm living on a wonderful corner of the Earth. The thought of moving again is not a welcome thought. It's a lot of work.
I am a mother, with a mother lion's instinct to protect my offspring. Also myself. But first and foremost, my daughter.
I listen to my inner guidance. Asking for any guidance that can be provided. This past weekend I talked with my daughter and son-in-law about the need for them to come north. Wondering if the air is, and will remain safe where I live in the weeks and months ahead. We tentatively worked out a plan of action we can take if we need to head north on short notice. We agreed on a few initial steps like bringing their belongs that they want to keep up to my home in the next couple of weeks. They will keep their antennas on alert for signs that things are unsafe where they live. I feel it's coming sooner then they think. However, they are now tuned in to the possibility of needing to leave their home quickly. At least I hope so.
There are signs that my daughter and son-in-law know at a higher level what is coming. They've come up three weekends in the past month and a half to help get the vegetable garden created. Much more often than previously. This past weekend they told me they had decided not to start their own garden this summer, but instead to contribute to the garden at my house for their vegetables, not that we live within easy distance for me to drop off their share of the produce on a weekly basis or anything. I trust their intuition and their ability to read and respond accordingly.
I want them with me as we go through this most turbulent phase of our Great Transition. We have such joy and love together. Besides, the three of us make a good team for navigating through the unknown before us.
Ultimately, what I choose to do, is settle into the present Now. We have the ability to respond to circumstances as they present themselves. We are only able to respond in the present, not the future, which we never know with any certainty. I choose to trust the messages that come through my heart and feelings. They have never failed me. My inner compass guides me always in the perfect direction. If I happen to miss an important message from my heart, there will be another, and another until I get it. Trust and Faith. These times provide us with the marvelous opportunity to deepen our Trust and Faith in our selves, our response-ability, and in the Divine to lead and guide us through to our greatest heights.

In the Midst of Crisis, Universe Sends Us Some Humor
Following through the link to NC's response page and on to a few federal agency pages left me unsure whether to gag or burst out laughing. What trite dribble!! I'm sitting here wondering whether my eyes/ears/mind have grown especially attuned to blatant falseness, or whether our government officials have just gone way over board in their condescending placation of the public. Especially humorous is the fact that a link on NC's page to "List of Experts" opens to a blank page.
Thank you Universe for sending us humor in the midst of planetary catastrophe. :)
North Carolina's Response to the Gulf Oil Spill
Gov. Perdue on Tuesday joined officials from the N.C. Department of Crime Control and Public Safety, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources and the U.S. Coast Guard to discuss the state’s ongoing preparations in the event oil were to reach North Carolina shores. A briefing in Emergency Operations Center in Raleigh was held for state legislators and another session for local elected officials, local government managers and public safety officials from coastal counties.
Gov. Perdue stressed that experts, including the Coast Guard and U.S. Environment Protection Agency, believe there is only a remote chance that any oil will reach North Carolina shores. If any oil were to reach North Carolina, the state is prepared. North Carolina had a plan in place to deal with an oil spill long before the situation in the Gulf, and that plan is being updated to handle the current situation. Gov. Perdue reminded participants that North Carolina beaches are clean and open for business this summer season.
“I believe North Carolina has the best emergency management team in the country. We have proven over and over we can handle whatever emergency comes our way,” said Perdue. “No matter how small the chance that oil could reach North Carolina, my goal, as always, is for us to be prepared.”
Additionally, the N.C. Department of Crime Control and Public Safety has launched a web page dedicated to providing information and useful links regarding the Gulf oil spill. The page is located at the department's home page at www.nccrimecontrol.org (notice how NC's Dept of Crime Control and Public Safety's website is just titled NC Crime Control!???!!!- LK) and can be reached by clicking on the Gulf Oil Spill tab.
Lights Connecting to Usher Out of the Darkness
How many times have I heard.... You're too sensitive. You're too much of a rebel. You're too emotional. You're too much of a free spirit. You're too idealistic. You're not rational. You don't know what you're talking about. You're out of touch with reality.
Really??? The time that will tell is dawning. Can't you see the first shafts of light shooting up from the horizon?
In the not quite four months since starting this blog, I ventured out more in reading others' blogs as I hadn't done before. Here and there I find a kindred spirit. We are finding each other! Finally, we are finding each other. As we've known deep in our hearts, there are others out there who Know and understand. And steadily we are connecting. We connect based on our shared vision and perception, without knowing one another's age, location, identity, and sometimes even gender. These things don't matter. What matters is sensing the true heart. There is huge comfort in knowing we are not alone, and we are finally connecting.
We, the Light Bearers, are here, dotted all around the planet. Our numbers growing. Our light shining brighter. The connections springing up across the miles and oceans and political boundaries. Connecting into a magnificent web of Light encompassing and embracing, anchoring the Light throughout the planet.
Take Heart. We are at the moment just before the pot starts to boil. The little bubbles formed all around the sides of the pot. Surface shifting and swirling. The watch pot that will most definitely start it's boil in just a split second. Boiling, purifying, clearing out all the impurities that led life on this planet so astray. This is time we came here for. Much work is before us. There will be much sadness and also immense joy and appreciation as we progress through the turbulent storm before dawn. We are so well prepared and ready with our web of Light carrying the vibration of love to usher in life on Earth as it was always meant to be. And in the process we will be recognized for who we truly are.

Serious Toxic Level of VOC's all around Gulf Coast Region
The facts he shares in this interview, which were revealed consistently by more then one source, are:
The conservative, (though not revealed to the public) estimate of BP and government officials is 4 million gallons of oil per day is flowing into the Gulf of Mexico. It could be more. The line is ruptured deep below the wellhead. Oil is leaking through fissures in the rock and leaking out in plumes up to 20 miles away.
The pressure of the oil that well tapped into is 20,000 to 70,000 psi. Normal oil well pressures are around 1200 psi, according the Lindsey. The pressure in this well is at levels beyond which there is technology to contain it. His contacts indicated that they have now idea how to stop the leak given the immense pressure. They are very fearful. They offered that a nuclear detonated explosion may be the only solution to stop the flow, yet admit that a nuclear detonation could also act to open the entire oil deposit up rather than fuse it closed.
This information is being kept from the public, it total disregard to the massive health/death risk to the residents around the Gulf. Last week's EPA readings of air quality in the Gulf coastal communities found enormously toxic levels for the following volatile organic compounds (VOC's) emitted with the flow of oil:
Hydrogen sulfide this week's level 1200/parts per billion (ppb), EPA safe levels are 5-10/ppb
Benzene this week's level 3000/ppb, EPA safe levels are 0-4/ppb
Methylene chloride this week's level 3000 - 3400/ppb, EPA safe levels are 61/ppb
The video of part one of the interview follows bellow or through this Link
Health effects for hydrogen sulfide from the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry:
- Hydrogen sulfide is a mucous membrane and respiratory tract irritant; pulmonary edema, which may be immediate or delayed, can occur after exposure to high concentrations.
- Symptoms of acute exposure include nausea, headaches, delirium, disturbed equilibrium, tremors, convulsions, and skin and eye irritation.
- Inhalation of high concentrations of hydrogen sulfide can produce extremely rapid unconsciousness and death. Exposure to the liquified gas can cause frostbite injury.
Acute Exposure
Hydrogen sulfide's can cause inhibition of the cytochrome oxidase enzyme system resulting in lack of oxygen use in the cells. Anaerobic metabolism causes accumulation of lactic acid leading to an acid-base imbalance. The nervous system and cardiac tissues are particularly vulnerable to the disruption of oxidative metabolism and death is often the result of respiratory arrest. Hydrogen sulfide also irritates skin, eyes, mucous membranes, and the respiratory tract. Pulmonary effects may not be apparent for up to 72 hours after exposure.
Children do not always respond to chemicals in the same way that adults do. Different protocols for managing their care may be needed.
Health effects for Benzene from the Agency for Toxic substances and Disease Registry: Breathing very high levels of benzene can result in death, while high levels can cause drowsiness, dizziness, rapid heart rate, headaches, tremors, confusion, and unconsciousness. Eating or drinking foods containing high levels of benzene can cause vomiting, irritation of the stomach, dizziness, sleepiness, convulsions, rapid heart rate, and death.
The major effect of benzene from long-term exposure is on the blood. Benzene causes harmful effects on the bone marrow and can cause a decrease in red blood cells leading to anemia. It can also cause excessive bleeding and can affect the immune system, increasing the chance for infection.
Health effects of Methylene Chloride from the Agency for Toxic substances and Disease RegistryIf you breathe in large amounts of methylene chloride you may feel unsteady, dizzy, and have nausea and a tingling or numbness of your finger and toes. A person breathing smaller amounts of methylene chloride may become less attentive and less accurate in tasks requiring hand-eye coordination. Skin contact with methylene chloride causes burning and redness of the skin.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has determined that methylene chloride may cause cancer in humans.The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) has determined that methylene chloride can be reasonably anticipated to be a cancer-causing chemical.
The EPA has determined that methylene chloride is a probable cancer-causing agent in humans.
If what Lindsey Williams said in the interview is even part way accurate, it is perhaps the most despicable act by the government yet. Millions of people are being exposed to extreme levels of these chemicals. Shortly after the oil volcano started there were reports about high levels of the toxic gases, Hydrogen Sulfide and Benzene. There were reports of workers being taken ill and being transported to the hospital. Then reporting on the toxic gases and related illnesses was shut down. Some have questioned why they have not released any info on current air quality testing. Well the EPA posts spill related testing, but it doesn't seem to jibe with health problems that are being reported anecdotally on the web. I doubt its accuracy. What is so tragic is that the public is not being advised about the deadly air quality conditions in the Gulf Coastal area. And how far does this extend inland considering air currents. Lindsey wanted this information out and for people to be warned. Please share this widely.
Another Alert An email received from "BP Insider"at Above Top Secret. As ATS indicates, they are unable to verify the source. Take it for what your internal True/False monitor tells you.
After listening to the interview and reading the BP insider email, I reread the most recent Web Bots report (vol. 0, issue 5) in relation to what Lindsey Williams shared. The info he provided appears to fit exactly the predictions about the effect of the oil volcano leading to diaspora and feeding the revolution. The next Web Bot report is due out June 25th.
I don't know what else to say now. I'm drained. Speechless. Outraged beyond describing. Deeply saddened
