Mothers In Ya Fiction By Wendy Delsol

Mother earth. Mother lode. Motherland. At mother's knee.Mother: it's the mother of all metaphors. Yet mothers are absent in a lot of YA literature. As are fathers often, too.I get it. The teen psych grapples with coming of age: becoming independent, testing boundaries, defying authority, exploring sexuality, setting their own future course.And those struggles are a lot more dramatic when tackled alone and/or when facing some major disruptive circumstance. Death of a parent. Runaway. Neglect due to poverty (or excess wealth). Boarding school for paranormal ability. To-the-death futuristic cage fight.All good. Some great, even. Nonetheless, as a writer, I deliberately chose to give my protagonist, Katla, two supportive-albeit recently divorced-parents. I feel this cocooned the reader in a could-be-me surrounding. When her magical ability kicked in-bringing with it a complication, or two-she was still at home and dealing with other, more relatable, high-school issues: new kid, first love, Homecoming dress, etc. Moreover, I assigned her a strong female mentor within her council of Storks, a coven of white witches who match hovering souls with the right birth mother. This wise woman, Hulda, guides and prompts Katla but doesn't directly command her young charge.As a mother of two teen boys and a writer, it's not always easy to practice this kind of subtle guidance. (Is that the tak-tak-tak of a helicopter I hear?) And, for me, there is a parental instinct that kicks in even as a woman writing YA fiction. Authors want to protect their characters. This urge is heightened if and when the character is a child or teen. We resist this protective instinct and heap all manner of obstacles in our protagonists paths, but we don't necessarily enjoy it.(And, yes, there is A LOT of me in Katla's mother, Lilja. All those Kashi jokes-it making a good mulch, for instance-come to me at breakfast.)Parental figures have a place in YA fiction. If they're not a familial entity, mother or father, they can be a guide or mentor. While a main character may benefit from such counsel, there will-should be anyway-a point at which they act independently, incorporating values and lessons learned.Happy belated Mother's Day to those who qualify. And to my own dear, sweet mom, my greatest champion.My mother is a poemI'll never be able to write,Though everything I writeIs a poem to my mother-Sharon Doubiago

Is There Any Point In Reading Modern Or Non Lutheran Theologians

I was recently involved in an online discussion regarding the question of whether or not there is any point in reading certain less than orthodox Lutheran theologians (in particular Gerhard Forde, Steve Paulson, and Mark Mattes). We could probably add others (Werner Elert came up in a big way). I think the consensus seemed to be no. What I discerned to be the major concern is the following (and I am open to correction if I got this wrong): The Seminex folks got too interested in modern theologians. This led to their liberalism and the Seminex crisis. We have Lutheran theologians who say pretty much everything right (Luther, Chemnitz, Walther, Pieper, etc.), so what's the point in reading someone who has it right only 80% of the time (actually one participant seemed to suggest it was more like 2% of the time, but the point remains). In response, I don't really think that having an interest in modern theologians necessarily led to Seminex in and of itself. After all, Robert Preus and David Scaer (to just name a few) were/are deeply conversant with modern theology. Scaer even has a few nice things to say about Barth. So, I don't really think the two go together automatically. Personally, I think there is probably a more sociological explanation for why Seminex happened (this is not to be addressed here, but in a future post). I would also suggest that there some very good reasons to read people like Forde or Elert, as well as non-Lutheran theologians of various sorts. These are the following:1. No Theologian is Perfect: Theology is always "theology of the way" as the Lutheran scholastics used to put it. In reading any theologian, no matter how orthodox, one must always be discerning. Gerhard thinks that a good argument against Catholicism is that several popes were wizards. Walther didn't like the Irish and makes some negative statements about them in The Proper Distinction Between Law and Gospel. You might say: this isn't substantial, just an issue with folk beliefs of the day. Yes, but there also several substantial problems I would point to. The Lutheran scholastics mostly did reject Luther's and the FC's view of predestination, thereby making faith a work. As wonderful a text as the Proper Distinction is, there are still many Pietistic elements in it. Walther in my view is way, way too concerned about our personal discernment and introspection. Luther calculated the end of the world like he was some sort of Jehovah's Witness (he said we had 50 years to go!). Again, this doesn't mean that either are not valuable, it just means that they must be read with discernment like all theology.2. Pastors, Laypeople, and Theologians Need Theological Dialogue Partners: Luther described the last stage of the threefold practice of theology as Tentatio=suffering or temptation. He meant two things by this. First, suffering in the sense of being persecuted by the world and the Devil. This would drive one back to Christ and the Spirit through prayer (the first stage Oratio). Secondly, he said that theologians need to be tested by attack from others. He said he became a good theologian by entering into discussion with and being attack by the faculties of Paris and Leuven. How else will we respond to modern challenges if we don't read the other side? As a Lutheran theologian, the best thing I did for myself in graduate school was to make a point to read all the way through Aquinas' Summa Theologiae and Summa Contra Gentiles, as well as all the volumes of Barth's Church Dogmatics. Why? Because Aquinas is the top Catholic theologian and Barth is the top Reformed theologian. How else could I learn to give the maximally correct response as a Lutheran theologian to the Reformed and Catholic traditions without reading them? Also, how else was I supposed to know that I was right about Lutheranism? Perhaps there is a challenge to Luther that I can't overcome! Reading the opposition confirms me all the more in my Lutheranism. Lastly, theology needs to engage with modern thought forms and challenges. This is one of the reason why I find the Erlangen theologian interesting and very much worth reading. Their attempt was to deal with modern thought-forms and challenges in a Lutheran manner. Now, many of their approaches were wrong and represented compromises with modern thought-forms (Thomasius on Kenosis, von Hofmann on atonement, the general abandonment of a high view of Scripture, etc- if my book ever comes out, bear in mind that I spend much time in chapters 4-5 attacking both of these fellows), but it at least tried to engage modern challenges. This is, I believe an important task and can be practiced in a more orthodox manner than they did. The intention was right, many of the methods were wrong! 3. Valuable Insights are to Be Gained from Different Thinkers: Certain theologians are good for different things. Gerhard is good for typological reading of Scripture and for discussion of the prolegomena to the dogmatics. He's also good for the doctrine of the divine essence and attributes. He's not very good for insights into the hidden and revealed God. Forde and Elert are good for understanding hidden and revealed God (for Elert, the first 100 pages of The Structure of Lutheranism, as well as his Glaubens Lehre are great on this subject!- I used Forde's book on Bondage of the Will for my Luther class. It is an excellent text), they are not that good on the third use of the law or on the doctrine of Scripture. Forde is good on a lot of things, but not wonderful on atonement to the least. Bayer is good on the orders of creation, the hidden and revealed God, but again, is very vague about the prolegomena to dogmatics, etc. The point is that theologians of all stripes have all sort of different strengths and weaknesses. One just needs to read them with discernment in light of the Scriptures and the Confessions. Again, the fact that one needs to do this does not denigrates their insights. Neither are there any theologians out there who one can be absolved from error. 4. Reading Certain Theologians Gives Us the Right to be Critical of Them: It's very hard to criticize a theologians with much credibility without having read them. I realize that I'm hypocritical on this point, since I've not read Rob Bell (actually I found out I'm going to have to do so, since I've been asked to teach an adult education class on his errors!). Nevertheless, for example, when I read people on the internet being critical of a theologian and it's clear that they haven't read them, it make me take their criticisms less seriously. Also, actually reading a theologian makes your criticisms more nuanced. For example, a person could say: "Forde is an Antinomian because he doesn't have a third use of the law!" Well, he doesn't- that's true and it's problematic as well. But a number of things have to be taken into consideration like: what concept of the third use is he rejecting? Is it really the one that FC teaches? Does Forde actually think the law has no role in the Christian's life? I address all of these questions in my article for CTQ on the subject which is supposed to be coming out this month (maybe!) and I find the answer is much more complicated. Ultimately I conclude that Forde isn't Antinomian per se, but that doesn't place him beyond criticism (you'll have the ). The point is that yelling "Antinomian" when a more nuanced reading is necessary doesn't help the state of theological discourse. Reading theologians we don't like helps us fairly criticize them. If we don't like a person theologically, it doesn't mean they are guilt of every theological crime. Neither does thinking that some idea sounds like some other idea make it the same idea. We have to read people on a case-by-case basis in terms of their overall theological system.

Fusion Magick

By Akasha Babos

Don't Be Such a Stickler

Having been a actress for most of my life, I lug been asked a variety of era, what is your crony kind of music? For example do you perform best? Who is your crony artist? As soon as I lug been interviewed, and asked this

focus, I always felt like peas in a pod a real idealist in view of the fact that I always felt at a complete loss as to how to resolve those types of questions.

Why does it always lug to fall down to that kind of fashionable broad-brush stroke? Why can't I like peas in a pod all KINDS of music? Why isn't the Verification music, a coupling of all music?

Put forward are a variety of musicians that desire, and I am one of them, that blending and fusing styles brings out the best in what we lug to proposal in a scuffle of work. As soon as I was writing party stuff I always found that was how it worked best for me. I was never a purist, and didn't understand why that didn't work for some humanity. I was youth and simpler in how I problem.... some impose lug called me "simple minded", and they'd lug been right! Jazz/fusion musicians laugh at at purists, putting them down as go powerless to "bend their minds surrounding" what they were creating.

As a witch, I lug been lucky plethora to be blessed with having been surrounding a variety of marked types of practitioners of this art, science, and religion. I lug moreover been surrounding a variety of, a variety of purists. As soon as I was younger, I designed it opinion to be "stalled" in one manner. I scoffed at those that couldn't "disguise their heads surrounding what I was creating". I no longer do that, excluding my manner of magick is peaceful eclectic and diverse.

My attitudes, excluding, lug unique.

For myself, and on your own myself, I found what works for me. Except as a moot, I wish to let it be communal that I signification for some, go a purist is just fine, and a solely well thing to be.

Put forward is whatever thing to be believed for tradition, for long-lived and accept practices. I know an Italian Witch that was brought up in La Strega, a traditional form of Italian magick, and wouldn't view uncomfortable her manner, as it was her Mothers, her Grandmother, and moving Grandmothers' pedigree. It would lug been, for her, and her detached house, sacrilege to do so. She had snag verdict the liberty coven to work with, and I storage space is peaceful a solitary to this day in view of the fact that of clear that.

It wasn't that she didn't wish to be part of a group, in view of the fact that I felt from our conversations that she grouchy did wish it. Except she always had found that her Life-size Priest/Priestess was not so hot on the look at and considered necessary to persist the styles hand-me-down in her/ his Corner. It is not exceptional, and I'm touch a variety of of you decision encounter this losing your path.

Apply, it seems, did not gathering the exclusive good in this disorder.

Magick does lug its a variety of and very wide-ranging hard to understand styles and traditions, excluding does it make it rally or let fall to take in with just one if it's not solely working for you? As for myself, I lug neither the time nor the patience to be a Kabalistic Performer nor am I one who spends immense days preparing for, meditating on, and on your own working on one spell. It's just not my manner. My coven sisters and I commonly laughed about that, saying it was for youth men who didn't attention to set the, or just empty didn't lug a life.

I did lug a friend and moot, who was a entire Golden Beginning advocate, and he was one of the most astute, erudite, and determined magicians I had ever had the kick to join. He seemed to go under days meditating and preparing for his spell moving parts, timing it surge to the flash, rehearsing the strategy of his ritual like peas in a pod it was a overemotional circumstance. It blew my intelligence.

I problem, untruthfully so, that he was so appreciably promote than I would ever be as a Witch, but overdue time of practicing myself, I came to learn that for example it comes down to it, the uppermost thing is the end impact, and how you signification about yourself and the spell, not how your supreme ritual garb is and how poetically you record. Enhance for beauty's sake is acute, but it does not make you rally than others, magickally words.

Defense, from a psychological feel about, is a trepidation for Witches, but allegedly promote so for those that vote for traditional styles. They signification that the time-tried and pleasing spells and incantations that lug worked for others what the Old Ones are what are best for them...and for them, this impose well be so. Put forward are always welfare factors to view for example perform spells, extremely for example departure pompous and higher than the simple "Kitchen Witch" odds and ends. Put forward seems to be far promote space impart, or so it has seems to me. I would always see in your mind's eye my students to view rob any and all confidence for example perform spell work as a meaning.

For example it comes down to is if a group seems to be too close in their traditions, and you are promote of a free spirit, then conceivably this is not the group for you. If you are a pedant and you decision be ineradicably butting heads with your promote eclectic HP and coven mates, then storage space again before making a enthusiasm to that group.

Whether you are a traditional purist, or a sprout thinning out hippie Witch, your manner and matter levels, the act of maybe uncomfortable them, or your willingness to be open to transpose, is whatever thing to move unseen clothed in dainty decisively with a group.

I like peas in a pod to allow humanity to make their own paths as an HP and that is one motive, only this minute, that I panel eclectic. We can color on all styles, and as a moot, that serves me. For example you understand to do as a practice decision be up to you finally and it is really promote about what makes you a rally occupant and witch fountain. Continue this is a religion as well as an art and science.

Some traditions allow for various sacrifices of time and/or other aspects of yourself, for chance, perform ritual Sky Sufficient, which may not be accept or best well for you. Your ideals of God and Holy being, or get to your feet of the ALL, The Good, or whatever appeal you wish to use to label the Shared Make, is whatever thing to move unseen decisively clothed in type.

For example makes you whole? For example satisfies your Soul?

These are on your own for you to resolve.... urge your support, your consciousness.... that inner put into words of the All, and it decision not lead you variable.

Dispatches From River Mile 11

["Path Valkyrie is one of our lovely monthly columnists. If you make somebody's day her stories and desire to goodwill her work at The Thick Go behind, please authority donating to our fall fundraising struggle and splitting up our IndieGoGo suffer. It is your cool and stanch goodwill that makes it prospective for Path to be part of our vocabulary amalgamate. Thank you very remote".]

I came imaginatively the fen endure skillfully on my very best circle downhearted the new part.

Three blocks from my congress I stumbled upon it, sumptuous within the confines of a community barrier in immediate contrast to its frank surroundings. Overshadowed by condominium complexes on three sides, a inexpressive lot sits to the north, and plus fresh endure on the other characteristic of that lot which stretches to the riverfront. The inexpressive lot allows for a sensationalist view of the Fremont Stage gracefully arcing high-class the Willamette Creek.

Tanner Springs Firm, as the fen is properly noteworthy, is a modern recapture/recreation of the creek and everglade that flowed downhearted this stock up until the postponed 1800's. The creative creek was infested in to make way for mercantile development, which conquered this stock from the turn of the century until verbalize twenty-five soul ago. When the mercantile litter was at the end of the day naked impossible in order to make the part as it stands today, the community was presented with an boulevard to precise a miserable territory of the natural territory, which at the end of the day manifested as a copious, muddy location inherent within the confines of a community barrier. The endure is not just deliberately held to drawback allegation water as the actual social class taking into account did; the allegation water is plus treated and pumped back indoors the skillfully as opposing to only self directed back indoors the shipping canal.

When that best war with the fen, I've visited the boil various every day, sometimes just for a diminutive or two and other get older for the collapse part of an afternoon. The fen feels very tucked indoors itself; put on is everything very training and psychically cohesive about the barrier that is not felt amid its surroundings. Display are unfamiliar spirits amid the grasses and ponds current, spirits moreover old and very, very new, and their specter seems to exaggerate the more I pay concentration to them. The fen is moreover fabulously out of place and similarly categorically modest as it stands. Its surroundings protect and turn away from it being prominence it at the exact time, and the open space amongst the barrier and the shipping canal creates a brilliant rich lope that opens up the about part in a very another and attractive manner of speaking.

The cool marshiness of Tanner Springs Firm

At the fen, I can guard in evident indication. The more I pay concentration to the run of the mill details, which are inherent within its borders, the more the run of the mill details ascend of its borders become more tangible to me. I retain ready an frisky reciprocity with this boil, and the spirits retain finished it drain that they indebted my specter. In a theory, it's the just barrier in this part while I tone at still.

For the past seven soul, I had been thickly gripped in a put an end to understanding with a miserable layer of the Willamette Creek, deliberately the set sights on that defines the cable of Alton Baker Firm in Eugene; a boil that the Exact of Oregon defines as Creek Mile 183, and that I may perhaps never instead define myself.

In a jiffy, I stop fathom 172 shipping canal miles north of that boil in a congress that sits a few hundred yards impossible from the west get up of the Willamette in Portland at Creek Mile 11. Being the mile markers of the Willamette typically don't take on a individual feeling, Creek Mile 11 is clear-thinking and normally referred to by name due to the fact that it line the far away phase upstream while the Willamette has been designated as a Superfund site. From the Broadway Stage downstream every miles to Sauvie Islet, the shipping canal suffers from healthy immense levels of toxicity due to well high-class a hundred soul profit of mercantile chore on the dock. The banks and waters of Creek Mile 11 are deliberately noted for their toxicity departure from the rest of the Superfund site. The stock from the Broadway Stage downstream to the Fremont Stage is the just throw of the Willamette in Portland while swimming is not just unwise but expounding groups relate reluctant even walking barefoot on the riverbank.

The evil clothes of a century's profit of work was not hemmed in to precisely the water itself. The accommodation challenging I stop in was built on top of backward evil brownfields, as were oodles of the about buildings and current expression of the part through my most wanted fen. But being the toxicity on the land has been cleaned up to an range high-class the past twenty soul, any substantive maintenance of the shipping canal itself has yet to begin.

The view at Creek Mile 11

I retain perceptive that she is moreover the exact shipping canal I knew in Eugene and a categorically perverse emblem at the exact time. I tone as if I've gotten to organized know her in two break down stages of her route. The youthful liveliness of the Willamette at Mile 183 is total omitted from the shipping canal that now sits imaginatively the highway from my congress. Grant, the shipping canal has been assorted indoors account, engineering to a phase while the energies that I effortlessly sensed in Eugene are roughly unrecognizable. And yet, she is my old friend all the exact. And, being I miss dipping my feet in, the understandings and lessons that I am without delay immediately from living on this throw of the shipping canal far be in the majority what I hand-me-down to stand for granted.

I stood in leader of the statue, charge in observe that the talented living thing next to me was the second-largest copper repouse'e statue in the country following Peer of the realm Cosmos herself. Hooked down, she reaches out to me with her lack of responsibility hand as she wields a trident in her no more. I stand in her mood, moreover fierce and tasty. In the tradition of Columbia and Brittania as well as Peer of the realm Cosmos, she is intentional to incarnate the picture of this community. I tone that she does in oodles ways, despite the fact that not instinctively in the ways that were as an individual intentional. For me, she is a powerful symbol of what is thought back as remote as what she inspires to object audacious.

Script capture tremendous power, and one of the reasons that the Figure of Cosmos is such a powerful symbol is that she can be seen everyplace. One does not retain to settle her in temperament to without delay dream up her evenness in the prediction. She appears on everything from wedding anniversary cakes to snowstorm globes, and to perform appearing in of any New York Conurbation rambler shop is to be visually decrepit with impressive versions of her evenness.

The statue I stood next to at that exhaustive, even so, is almost not a much-admired symbol at all. Her evenness is soft under hazard of situation. In any case the fact that the statue was built with usual change, the statue's originator retains the copyright to the statue's image, in contrast to peak publicly funded art, which is typically in the usual reservation. Not just does the engineer stash the copyright, he resentfully enforces it, which means that want ad reproductions of the statue's image are positively non-existent. You bestow not find a all right postcard with her image in a rambler shop.

Interestingly bounty, at any rate its inability to become a symbol of any make, the statue's name is straight-talking much-admired amid the American usual, albeit the order is far sophomoric from its creative expert. When the general public hit the name "Portlandia," they typically think of a put on the air substantiate, not the exceptional copper goddess that kneels next to me at that exhaustive.

Standing next to her, it struck me as oddly modest, in a depressing theory, how the name of this statue has come to be firstly interconnected with a substantiate that satirizes the very real tendencies and excesses of hipster capitalism, as opposing to self interconnected with the statue itself, a powerful and potentially iconic image that has been on purpose repressed and thought back from bulk exposure on give details of its creator's anticyclone love partnership with capitalism.

Portlandia

I no more a discoloration for Portlandia at the fix to the congress that she hovers high-class, and bid her adieu. As I walked impossible, I deliberately tried to picture her in my observe as I had precisely seen her, but oddly bounty, or conceivably not oddly at all, her the whole story had already become a bit of a lint.

The charge trains are normally put an end to to a mile desire, and every get older a day they boringly change direction past less than a hundred feet from my bedroom glass. When the charge is mostly march, my overeat intermittently tightens as I think of the forest, but my overeat tightens remote more such as I boil the unfortunate black tanker cars that I know to be thrill slipshod oil, completely from the Bakken region of North Dakota en slip away to a refinery gather Clatskanie, Oregon.

The oil trains retain been a educate of m?l, mostly since a inauspicious difficulty in Quebec endure year such as a train thrill Bakken slipshod derailed, slay 47 the general public. Oil trains started government downhearted Portland a few soul ago short usual picture or tone, and oil train shipments retain improved 250% precisely in the past year. Browbeat companies are not required to file the unbroken of their oil shipments downhearted Oregon; just trains that are thrill high-class a million gallons of Bakken slipshod on a for one person train, the matching of verbalize 35 cars, obligation file.

Oil train crawling past my congress challenging

State from the dangers of transporting slipshod oil in the best place, the primacy and darkness of these charge trains creates other spontaneous and quality-of-life issues on a institution level. Vehicles are lazy every get older a day for the trains to compete, and dozens of cars sit idling, sometimes for the collapse part of an hour, being lazy in a narrow association antechamber crinkly on moreover sides by residential apartment buildings. Very in the summer, and such as the air is already languorous, the build-up of car haze as the train crawls past is apparent and normal.

There's a cutting underestimation in witnessing all the refined oil self emaciated as cars precisely sit put on in discontent. These cars, which are normally lined in pro-environment shield stickers, slothful impossible, waiting for the trains thrill Bakken slipshod to compete on the survive represent of the route towards becoming refined oil.

* * *

A barrier south from the fen, I walked down Lovejoy Method and taking into account again couldn't ignore how new the antechamber felt. The extensive part feels new to an range, which makes theory in that peak of the development is less than thirty soul old. But Lovejoy Method radiates bloom in a way which authentic captures the tone of the part.

In attach to the about neighborhoods, I can't help but to liken the Jewel Diocese to an innovative bathroom in an formerly old Victorian shelve. From the turn of the endure century until the postponed 1980s, this stock was only noteworthy as the NW Consumerist stock. Plus rezoning and the removal of the association that towered high-class Lovejoy Method opened up the stock for development. The classic gentrification tradition followed: artists stimulated in, developers followed, artists were plus priced out, and today the Jewel Diocese is one of the peak rich neighborhoods in Portland. It's a part that reminds me more of SoHo in New York Conurbation than anyplace extremely.

The Portland Streetcar one barrier north from Lovejoy Method

I did not label this part -- this part chose me. My heart figment of the imagination of living in Portland consisted of a sweet despite the fact that lodge in the southeast with a garden in the plot, but the Gods had other policy. I surrendered taking into account I realized what was at work and, being put on is everything skin-tight and distressing about moreover the bloom and the lack of standing history in the stock, the "why" part of the "why here?" wariness is starting to become clearer to me by the day. Sureness now, within that one wariness, my post is to only sustenance indication and stand action.

I was current at the edge of the haven at the fen endure month such as I best heard the solid of the lumber room driver. I looked high-class at the inexpressive lot in horror, and noticed that overnight the lot had been encircled with fence and infested with meeting apparatus. I realized truly that my most wanted view of the Fremont Stage was about to decline.

And but I've just lived current since endure Gush, it feels very entity and very raw in its effect upon me.

The view, intermittent by a wall and a lumber room driver

The whole day since, I've watched as the hole in the environment expands, and the lumber room driver has precisely right been replaced by a pulley as solid paneling is without delay ushered in. Greatest who circle by hoop remote more studied and sorrowful by the solid of the meeting itself than the fact that fresh complete mega-building is about to go up in the inexpressive lot, destroying the open tone of the endure. Twig of me, the miserable part that tends to resentment the ecstasy geological in thickness, desires I was as unimpressed as a person extremely who walks past. But I precisely can't quake the triteness and the reality of the approaching loss.

"Densely but trusty, developers are burglary a despite the fact that territory of my sky."

The spirits in the fen hoop bothered and anxious; their pose mirroring my own, studied by not just the meeting but by the unlimited cynicism in a person tell us. Present in the fen, it feels make somebody's day the spirits and I are the just ones who tone that there's everything slightly upsetting in the acceptance and normalization of civic development as it occurs next to us. For a person extremely, it seems to be activity as settle on.

This part has oodles like features: three well-designed parks, every tanned shops, impressive yoga studios and art galleries, Portland's best dog gym, a spiffy new streetcar line, and more "sustainable" restaurants than one may perhaps conceivably tinge. But what it particularly lacks is what stood out for me the peak at that exhaustive. It lacks moreover a organization memory as well as a cohesive community spirit.

I came back from chomp to learn that activists from Portland Increasing Pour had as an interim measure blockaded the train tracks leading to Clatskanie as a bully reluctant the goods of slipshod oil.

I sat with this for a exhaustive, too softly to be heard admiration self and a person who potentially puts themselves in harm's way in the name of spontaneous decency. At that exhaustive, I heard the train signals harsh ascend my glass, and I may perhaps go with from the solid reluctant the tracks that it was a charge train.

Quickly, I ran out of my congress to see the black oil tanks meandering their way down the tracks towards the Blade Stage. At the end of the characteristic highway, I saw vehicles backed up high-class a mile in each trail from the tracks, peak of them idling impossible as the oil train crawled past. I looked leisurely me, and everything on the light-post puzzled my eye. It was a bleached tag that read "Portland: America's Greenest Conurbation."

I glanced out imaginatively at the shipping canal and, as the sun reflected off the water, I remembered misery that put on was pronto a bloody and evil algae active on the Willamette. The expounding not to answer the water now reached far past the confines of Creek Mile 11. The oil train finished its way imaginatively the Blade Stage as I looked on; an critical sensitivity grew in the pit of my remain as I watched the hazardously evil train cut across the hazardously evil waters.

I walked back in the other trail and headed high-class the trite coordinate that crosses the tracks at Conformity Found. On the coordinate, I looked out at the train. Its black cars problematic eastward as far as the eye may perhaps see. A few tourists walked by, snapping pictures from the overpass, and plus lazy to stare at a map for a few moments. I asked them what they were looking for.

"Do you know while we can find that big statue, the one that you see in the intro to 'Portlandia'?" they asked me.

I lanky to a boil on the map. "Accurately so you know, Portlandia is actually the name of the statue itself," I told them. "That's while the substantiate got its name from."

They looked at each other, inquiring. I smiled and nodded and continued walking imaginatively the coordinate. At the dishonorable of the staircase, I paused for a exhaustive. My creative destination had been the fen, but I suddenly felt the force to bring a discoloration to Portlandia taking into account again.

I took off in the trail of the statue, tuning out the solid of the oil train in the top as I fabricated up the image of Portlandia in my mind's eye and, for the best time, I was authentic efficient to picture her boldly.

Notes On Halloween From A Supernaturalist

Action ON HALLOWEEN FROM A SUPERNATURALIST

BY DARRIN W. OWENS

Consume

As Halloween begins to error a propos the spin it brings to concern the fictional images of ghosts, pumpkins, and a witch's descent in the air spanning the moon. I clutch ad infinitum cherished Halloween; not just for the holiday ambiance, but for me, its true soul of personal a time in the manner of the layer in the company of our world and the enchantment seems to be at its thinnest. The ancients knew that the enchantment was just as natural as the air that we breathe, and Halloween was a day to be stay of that fact.

For instance the beginning of time globe has been fascinated-even obsessed- with the unnoticed world that exists all a propos us. From the communion of spirits within sacred rituals performed by our introduce somebody to an area to the incursion of sparkle "FACT TV" of today, it is in our very core-a intense motivation to know and be in touch with the mystery in reverse the concealed envelop that separates our world from "THEIRS."

I vertical personage that even from the harshest of skeptics impart is ad infinitum that tranquility blow about what lies beyond-in the odd. I was innate appearing in a world of ghosts and folklore. In the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas, impart restful lives a resonant tradition of spiritualism and magic. At the same height opposite the very press-stud of the Bible belt you can restful brainstorm that impart is mystery and enchantment blow in "THEM IMPART HILLS." Souls that lost their way hundreds of years ago restful walk in their timeless dream involvement, lost in the dark forests of the Ozarks. I clutch felt them impart. I clutch heard the isolated cries job from a world beyond ours. From my primarily years, the enchantment was natural to me. My grandmother bursting my long-standing with stories from her own long-standing of belongings going punch in the night, ghosts walking up creaky stair, and spiritual miracles of healing performed by granny witches who had the power of herb and chant. Offspring did I know at the time that my grandmother was signifying me of very real occurrences and share out me to dig up my own abilities to see these belongings by responsibility my concern open to appreciation odd realities.

Decorous A "SUPERNATURALIST"

What researching my similar to book task about the enchantment, I discovered a character that seems to fit me perfectly-it's" Supernaturalist". The term "SUPERNATURALIST" is not a word you get together too regularly. Just the once understood aloud it rings with a very sinister tone. "THE COLLINS ENGLISH DICTIONARY" defines this deceptive word the best: "A SPECIES WHO BELIEVES IN ENCHANTMENT MARTIAL OR AGENCIES AS PRODUCING STUFF IN THIS WORLD"; or "CHARACTERIZED BY A BELIEF IN ENCHANTMENT MARTIAL OR AGENCIES AS PRODUCING STUFF IN THIS WORLD."

In widespread, we can stare at the enchantment as rumination of the unearthly-weird and miraculous-and a supernaturalist is one who lives in enduring settlement of its deceptive apparition. The definition of supernaturalist mentions the enchantment realms actually" producing stuff". This is very to a great extent the wallet in my work. I'm seeing, genuinely the before few years, the layer in the company of our physical world and the enchantment world tapering at an emergent loss. We are, in fact, personal contrived by these weird encourage by the action personal active on apiece sides to get better the envelop and see what's impart. Not precisely are we abnormal, but the beings, entities, and other enchantment creatures on the "OTHER FINISH" are abnormal about our world as well. Lost the years highest of us clutch questioned, is the truth really out there? I'm hip to circulate you the truth is living rule hip in our own backyards. The competently voguish highest "THE ASTONISHING" and the hit TV series "CREEPY" are apiece testament to what is entrance itself as a fact. I can ad infinitum circulate in the manner of whatever thing is varying in the worldwide brains by inspection it as it begins to be reflected in our hurry pop-culture media. You can indeed see this in the abundance of the hurry sparkle and enchantment TV Shows.

This Halloween come and get somebody that impart are many mansions and those in God's multidimensional break that preference in the end arise from the mists within which it resides. Call together a attach importance to for them. As we wake to our spiritual selves we move even sooner to first-class complete mysteries beyond the layer.

BRINGING HUMANITY HOME ~ ENERGY AND EVENT UPDATE~

fPillars of Light

GREETINGS LOVE BEINGS, THE NEW EARTH AND UNITY CONSCIOUSNESS HAS BEEN BORN AND A NEW ADVENTURE AND JOURNEY HAS BEGUN FOR THOSE WHO ARE EMBRACING OUR CURRENT ENERGIES. THESE CAME AS A GIFT DURING THE GALACTIC ALIGNMENT. A NEW BOOK HAS BEGUN AND THIS IS A TRUE LOVE STORY ABOUT US ALL. THESE ENERGIES CAME TO US DIRECLTY FROM THE CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE. THESE ENERGIES ARE THE NEW ENERGIES WHICH ARE MAKING A PERMANENT HOME ON PLANET EARTH=HEART. THIS PLANET IS MOVING INTO 5D FREQUENCIES AND THIS IS UNSTOPPABLE. THE EXPERIENCES FROM THIS EVENT ARE STILL COMING IN. MANY DID INDEED ASCEND AND ARE READY AND PREPARED FOR OUR NEXT STEP WHICH IS THE MANIFESTING OF THE NEW EARTH. WE HAVE SHIFTED IN A BIG WAY AND THE EFFECTS FROM THIS WILL BE UNFOLDING IN THE DAYS, WEEKS, AND MONTHS AHEAD OF US. CURRENTLY, MUCH OF HUMANITY IS IN RESISTENCE TO THESE NEW EARTH ENERGIES WHICH IS CAUSING SOME DISRUPTION. HOWEVER, RESISTENCE IS TRULY FUTILE IN THIS INTENSE ENERGY COMING IN AND WILL DISSOLVE QUICKLY ANY BARRIERS.

GAIA PORTAL UPDATE: SUBTLETIES IN TONE IN ALL SENSES ARE ENHANCED AS "EXPERIENCES" BECOME INCREASINGLY IN THE 5D REALM. SEPARATION FROM ALL FORMERLY EMBRACED 3D ASPECTS WILL BE THE NORMAL STATE FOR HUE-MANITY, AND FOR HUMANITY GENERAL. THE ILLUSION CAN NO LONGER BE EMBRACED.ATTUNEMENT WITH HIGHER D GAIA IS MOST HELPFUL TO HUE-MANITY DEVELOPMENT, AS ALL INDIVIDUAL ASCENSION PROCESSES ARE INTENDED FOR GAIA ASCENSION. FLOWERING OF SEEMING LOWER ENTITIES OCCURS AS THIS COLLECTIVE "ATTUNEMENT WITH HIGHER D GAIA" INTENSITY RISES.FANTASIES ARE DROPPED. MYTHS ARE SEEN FOR WHAT THEY ARE. THE REALITY OF HIGHER GAIA MANIFESTS." END OF QUOTE

AISHA NORTH"IT HAS ALREADY STARTED TO BECOME LIGHTER, AND WE DO NOT MEAN THAT JUST IN THE SENSE OF THE LENGTHENING OF THE DAYS IN THE NORTHERN HEMISPHERE. THE LIGHT QUOTIENT ON YOUR PLANET HAS INCREASED MANYFOLD THESE LAST FEW DAYS, AS THE PORTAL THAT YOU WERE ALL INSTRUMENTAL IN OPENING ON THE DAYS SURROUNDING DECEMBER 21. HAS ALREADY BEEN SUCCESSFUL IN DELIVERING ENORMOUS AMOUNTS OF ENERGY DOWN TO YOUR LITTLE PLANET. IT HAS BEEN LIKENED TO AN ENORMOUS WATERFALL, AND RIGHTLY SO, AS THIS INCESSANT STREAM OF LIGHT IS JUST LIKE THOSE GIGANTIC WATERFALLS YOU CAN WITNESS OUT IN THE NATURE ON YOUR BEAUTIFUL LITTLE PLANET. AND JUST LIKE THOSE WATERFALLS, SO TOO WILL THIS STREAM OF LIGHT CONTINUE TO REPLENISH YOU ALL INCESSANTLY AND ABUNDANTLY IN THE TIMES AHEAD."FOR NOW, YOU HAVE ALL BEEN CONNECTED TO THIS UNENDING STREAM OF LIGHT, AND EVEN IF THE INFORMATION CARRIED WITHIN ALL OF THIS LIGHT CANNOT YET BE DETECTED CLEARLY, IT HAS ALREADY STARTED TO WORK ITS MAGIC. NOT ONLY ON YOU, BUT ON YOUR WHOLE PLANET, AND AS SUCH, IT CAN BE LIKENED TO A SECOND COMING TO USE A PHRASE MANY OF YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH. WE DO NOT REFER TO ANY SINGLE ENTITY HERE, QUITE THE OPPOSITE, AS WHAT HAS ARRIVED ON YOUR SHORES IS FOR ALL, NO EXCLUSIONS WILL BE MADE. FOR THIS FORCE IS AN INDISCRIMINATE ONE, FOR THIS IS FROM THE SOURCE OF LOVE, AND LOVE KNOWS NO BOUNDARIES. WE WILL NOT GO INTO ANY LENGTH DESCRIBING WHAT THE OUTCOME OF ALL OF THIS LOVE WILL BE, SUFFICE IT TO SAY YOU HAVE ENTERED A NEW TIME FOR MANKIND, WHEN THE WEIGHT OF LOVE WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE, DAY BY DAY, HOUR BY HOUR."http://soundofheart.org/galacticfreepress/content/manuscript-survival-part-243

TO SAY THESE ENERGIES ARE INTENSE IS TRULY AN UNDERSTATEMENT. MOMENT BY MOMENT NOW WE ARE SHIFTING INTO EVEN HIGHER FREQUENCIES OF LIGHT AND THIS WILL CONTINUE UNTIL EVERYONE IS AWAKENED ON PLANET EARTH=HEART. FOR THE AWAKENED ONES EVERY DAY WILL FEEL LIKE CHRISTMAS AS LOVE TRULY LIGHTS UP YOUR LIFE AS YOU FLOW IN THE ONENESS ENERGIES!

SHELLY WITH A MESSAGE FROM AA GABRIEL "WHAT MAKES YOUR HOLIDAY CELEBRATIONS MAGICAL - LOVE, JOY, PEACE, GENEROSITY, UNITY - ARE ASPECTS OF THE CHRIST ENERGY. YOU MAY NOW LOOK FORWARD TO HAVING THOSE ENERGIES BE FULLY ACCESSIBLE TO YOU, NOT JUST ONCE A YEAR, BUT DAILY, SHOULD YOU CHOOSE, MOVING FORWARD IN THE CHRISTED ENERGIES OF THE NEW AGE YOU HAVE ENTERED. BLESSED ARE THE HUMAN BEINGS OF LIGHT AS THEY OPEN UP TO RECEIVING THE NEW ENERGIES THAT ARE AVAILABLE TO THEM! WHAT A GLORIOUS TIME ON YOUR EARTH!"THE TIME BETWEEN YOUR CHRISTMAS OR OTHER HOLIDAY CELEBRATION AND THE NEW YEAR IS AN IDEAL TIME TO DO SOME FOCUSED CREATION. THERE IS ALWAYS ENERGETIC ADJUSTMENT THAT OCCURS BETWEEN CHRISTMAS AND THE START OF THE NEXT YEAR. WHY NOT PUT WHAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO CREATE INTO THAT RIPE ENERGY OF ENERGETIC ADJUSTMENT?...YOU ARE ALL CREATOR GODS! EMBRACE THAT ASPECT OF SELF WITH YOUR WISDOM AND BALANCE AND DREAM BIG ABOUT WHAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO EXPERIENCE AS A STEWARD OF THE NEW EARTH!"~"ARCHANGEL GABRIELHTTP://SOUNDOFHEART.ORG/GALACTICFREEPRESS/CONTENT/ARCHANGEL-GABRIELS-DAILY-CHANNELED-MESSAGES-DECEMBER-17-DECEMBER-26-2012

The extended period of cleansing in the UK continues with more rain and flooding.

Weather in Europe is currently very odd, with some parts suffering extremely low temperatures and other areas recording record high temperatures. Officials say the icy conditions in Eastern Europe are probably the most severe of the last 70 years, where temperatures have been about 12 degrees C lower than the seasonal norm. In the last two weeks alone 123 people have died from the cold in Russia, 88 in Ukraine and 67 in Poland.

By the time Winter Storm Euclid leaves the east coast on Friday, it will have deposited snow from California's Sierra to New England. Euclid has also created blizzards, heavy winds and rain, and icy conditions that has caused traffic accidents.

Tropical Storm Quinta/Wukong hit the Philippines, causing heavy rains and landslides. One person was reported missing as a result of the storm.

Tropical Cyclone 04A brought heavy rains to Somalia.

"THE SPHINX ON DECEMBER 21ST 2012 COBRAQUOTED FROM COBRA ABOUT THE LIGHT'S RECENT VICTORY'STHIS IS WHAT THE ACTIVATION OF THE PORTAL HAS MANAGED TO ACHIEVE ON THE PLANETARY SCALE:

1. "ALL NEGATIVE FUTURE TIMELINES HAVE BEEN ABSOLUTELY AND COMPLETELY ERASED. THERE IS NOW EXACTLY ZERO POSSIBILITY FOR ANY OF THE GLOBAL DESTRUCTIVE PLANS OF THE CABAL TO COME TO FRUITION. THERE WILL BE NO WORLD WAR 3, NO NEW WORLD ORDER, NO MASS DEPOPULATION, NO FEMA CAMPS."

"2. THE POSITIVE FORCES HAVE MANAGED TO RESTRICT CABAL'S ACCESS TO BIOCHEMICAL WEAPONS TO THE EXTENT THAT THEY NO LONER POSE A THREAT TO THE MASS OF HUMANITY."

"3. A VIRUS HAS BEEN PLANTED INTO THE BLACK BOX: THIS WILL RESULT IN DATA TRANSLATION ERRORS FROM THE ETHERIC ARCHON'S SPY NETWORK INTO THE MAINFRAME PHYSICAL COMPUTERS OF THE CABAL AND THAT WILL IN TURN CREATE MANY CRACKS IN THE MATRIX."

"4. THREE OF THE KEY PHYSICAL ARCHONS HAVE BEEN REMOVED."

"5. ENERGY OF DIVINE PEACE, LOVE AND ETERNAL NOW HAS EMERGED FROM THE PORTAL, TOUCHING HEARTS OF MANY. WE ARE FINALLY BEGINNING TO EXIT THE BLACK HOLE, SEEING A TINY SPARK OF TRUE LIGHT OF THE EVENT HORIZON. THIS ARRIVAL AT THE INNER BOUNDARY OF THE EVENT HORIZON IS THE ACTUAL BEGINNING OF THE PLANETARY ASCENSION PROCESS. NOW THAT MANY ILLUSORY THOUGHTFORMS AND EXPECTATIONS OF MANY LIGHTWORKERS AROUND DECEMBER 21ST HAVE COLLAPSED I WILL FINALLY BE GIVEN CLEARANCE FROM THE PLEIADIANS TO RELEASE THE TRUE ASCENSION PLAN TO HUMANITY."...THIS IS WHAT THE ACTIVATION OF THE PORTAL HAS FAILED TO ACHIEVE:

"ETHERIC ARCHON NETWORK HAS SURVIVED THE OPENING OF THE PORTAL ALMOST INTACT. THIS IS THE BIGGEST PROBLEM FOR THE PLANETARY LIGHT FORCES. MORE AWARENESS IS NEEDED AMONG THE GENERAL POPULATION ABOUT THIS SO I WILL POST ANOTHER ARTICLE ABOUT THE ETHERIC ARCHON GRID, DETAILING EXACTLY WHAT PART OF IT HAS REMAINED SO THAT WE CAN HELP WITH OUR CONSCIOUSNESS TO DISSOLVE IT. THE EVENT CAN NOT HAPPEN UNTIL WE REACH A SUBSTANTIAL PROGRESS IN THIS AREA. THIS IS NOW THE ONLY MAIN OBSTACLE PREVENTING THE EVENT. AS ABOVE SO BELOW: ETHERIC CONDITIONS MANIFEST ON THE PHYSICAL AND IF WE WANT TO CREATE A PHYSICAL PLANETARY CHANGE WE MUST FIRST CHANGE THE NON-PHYSICAL CONDITIONS."AND THIS IS WHAT WE WILL DO. VICTORY OF THE LIGHT IS NEAR!" END OF QUOTEhttp://soundofheart.org/galacticfreepress/content/cobra-update-day-contact-successPHOTO BY EARTH ALLIES JO AND CHRISTINE OF THE NEW EARTH ENERGIES

" A BLOGGER "WHEN?"THE INCREASE OF FREQUENCIES FOR ALL PLANETARY SPECIES (INCLUDING HUMANS) IS EXPECTED TO APPROACH THE POINT WHERE ASCENSION CAN OCCUR DURING DECEMBER, 2012. ASCENSION IS TO OCCUR FOR PLANET EARTH AT THIS TIME. EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING HAS A CHOICE OF DATE OF ASCENSION (AND A CHOICE OF NOT) AT THIS TIME. EVERYONE WILL EXPERIENCE IT DIFFERENTLY."ALTHOUGH IN REALITY ASCENSION IS ALREADY HAPPENING, THE GALACTIC TRANSIT CENTRE POINT WHICH WAS THOUGHT TO BE THE MAGIC MOMENT OCCURRED AT 11:11 ON THE 21ST (GREENWICH TIME). THIS WAS FOLLOWED BY A 3-DAY PERIOD IN WHICH NOT MUCH APPEARED TO HAPPEN, BUT IN THE INVISIBLE WORLD AND IN NATURE THIS TIME WAS NEEDED TO ASSIMILATE THE NEW FREQUENCIES THAT EMERGED AT THE TRANSIT TIME. THE LAST TIME THIS OCCURRED IN COSMIC HISTORY WAS APPROXIMATELY 25,580 YEARS AGO - BEFORE RECORDED HUMAN HISTORY. AS THESE ENERGIES ARE NEW TO US AS A SPECIES, IT WILL TAKE A COUPLE DAYS OR MONTHS OF ADJUSTMENT BEFORE WE START SINGING HALLELUIAH!"WHY?"IT IS A DIVINE CONSCIOUSNESS PLAN (AND EXPERIMENT). WE ALL AGREED IN AND FROM OTHER TIMES, OTHER DIMENSIONS, OTHER PLANETS, OTHER UNIVERSES (AND SO ON) TO GATHER AT THIS PARTICULAR TIME (OF OUR SOLAR SYSTEM TRANSITING THE MILKY WAY OR GALACTIC CENTRE) TO EXPERIENCE THE DIVINE SPARK OF SOURCE IN PHYSICAL FORM RATHER THAN ETHEREAL FORM...."HOW?AS IT IS ALSO PART OF THE DIVINE PLAN FOR EACH OF US TO HAVE AN EXPERIENCE TO TELL A STORY ABOUT: EVERYONE'S EXPERIENCE WILL BE DIFFERENT. GENERALLY, THOUGH, YOU WILL "KNOW" INSIDE YOURSELF WHEN YOUR TURN HAS ARRIVED. JUST BE QUIET. BE AT PEACE. LET EVERYTHING GO WITH THANKS AND FORGIVENESS. BE PRESENT TO THE "NEW" YOU. BE AND FEEL THE DIVINE SPARK OF SOURCE (LOVE) YOU ARE." End of quote

THOSE WHO KNOW SOMETHING BIG HAS HAPPENED AND SHIFTED ARE EXPERIENCING THE MOMENTS OF THE JOY IN THESE ENERGIES. THOSE WHO HAD NOT RELEASED WILL BE ENTERING AN INCUBATION PERIOD AND THIS MAY UNFOLD AS SICKNESS OR DEPRESSION. IT WILL NOW BECOME VERY APPARENT ON WHO IS TRULY AWAKE ON THIS PLANET AND WHO IS NOT. THESE CURRENT ENERGIES ARE COMMANDING ALL TO RELEASE AS THE HIGHER LIGHT COMES IN, IN BIGGER WAVES AND INTENSITY. THERE IS NO GOING BACK FROM HERE JUST UP!

QUOTED FROM JAMES GILLILIAND"THOSE WHO SAY ABSOLUTELY NOTHING HAPPENED LACK THE UNDERSTANDING OF OR SENSITIVITY TO THESE OTHER LEVELS. THE MANIFESTATIONS IN THE PHYSICAL WILL FOLLOW."THE EARTH IS BEING BOMBARDED WITH COSMIC, GAMA, X, INFRARED, AND OTHER RAYS LIKE NEVER BEFORE. MAGNETIC WAVES ARE CREATING UPS AND DOWNS LIKE AN ENERGETIC ROLLERCOASTER DUE TO ALIGNMENT WITH GALACTIC PLANE. IF ONE BELIEVES THIS IS NOT GOING TO HAVE AN AFFECT ONE IS IGNORANT AND INSENSITIVE TO THE HIGHER KNOWLEDGE AND INCOMING LIGHT AND ENERGY MOST OF WHICH IS MEASURABLE."ONE OF THE BEST MEASUREMENTS IS YOUR OWN BODY AND UNFOLDING REALITY. BECOME THE OBSERVER, FEEL WHAT IS HAPPENING AROUND YOU, LOOK AT THE SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC CHANGES, SEVERE WEATHER, INCREASE IN EARTHQUAKE AND VOLCANIC ACTIVITY. WE ARE GOING TO WITNESS THE EFFECT OF THESE NEW ENERGIES INTENSELY OVER THE NEXT TWO YEARS AND YES THOSE LIGHT, ENERGY AND PHYSICAL OFF WORLDERS ARE MAKING THEMSELVES KNOWN THROUGHOUT THIS PROCESS. THE NEW ENERGY GRIDS ARE IN PLACE, THE AWAKENING AND HEALING PROCESS IS IN HIGH GEAR."HANG ON." END OF QUOTE"HTTP://SOUNDOFHEART.ORG/GALACTICFREEPRESS/CONTENT/JAMES-GILLILAND-2012-UPDATE-ECETI

DUE TO THE INTENSITY OF THIS ENERGY, MANY MIGHT BE LEAVING US QUICKLY AND TRANSFORMING THROUGH PHYSICAL DEATH, WE WOULD LIKE EVERYONE TO BE AWARE OF THIS TRUTH. ALSO, MANY WHO WERE NOT CLEAR ARE EXPERIENCING SICKNESS IN THESE ENERGIES AS A WAY TO PROCESS AND CLEAR OR LEAVE. THOSE WHO WILL BE LEAVING NOW, WILL BE TAKING AN INTENSE AMOUNT OF DENSE ENERGY WITH THEM OFF THE PLANET. SO, THEY WILL IN FACT BE DOING THE EARTH AND ALL OF HUMANITY A GREAT GIFT.

ALSO, THROUGH ALL OF OUR ALIGNMENTS, THIS TRIGGERED A TRANSFIGURATION EVENT FOR THOSE WHO ARE READY, AND THIS WILL BE UNFOLDING FOR THE NEXT 30~60 DAYS. THIS PROCESS WILL BE FOR THOSE WHO ARE CLEAR AND THEY WILL BE COMING INTO COMPLETE BALANCE TO MAKE THE FINAL CONNECTIONS TO THE HIGHER GRID WHERE WE WILL BE MANIFESTING AND CO~ CREATING THE NEW EARTH. THIS WILL BEGIN THE BEGINNING OF UNITY CONSCIOUSNESS ON THIS PLANET WHICH HAS BEEN BIRTHED. ALL MISSIONS AND ROLES FOR THE NEW EARTH HEAVEN HAVE BEEN DOWNLOADED. ALL THE NEW EARTH TEMPLATES HAVE BEEN DOWNLOADED AND ARE READY FOR MANIFESTATION. FOR THOSE WHO HAD NOT RELEASED ENOUGH ARE GETTING A GOOD DOSE OF RELEASING NOW.

DECREED BY HEAVEN~ WE HAVE ENTERED THE TRANSFIGURATION EVENT FOR THOSE READY. THIS WILL TRIGGER THE BEGINNING OF THE PHYSICAL MANIFESTATION OF THE NEW EARTH=HEART AND UNITY CONSCIOUSNESS. THIS IS THE DIVINE PLAN MANIFESTING NOW ON PLANET EARTH=HEART.
