You do not need to become a vegetarian or learn to walk on
water. You do not need to start wearing saffron robes and chant
every evening. You do not need to change your lifestyle which
may include sex, drugs and rock'n'roll. You do not need to
change anything - although if you change the way you see things
- a spiritual life will bring so much joy and contentment
- and you will change. |
IF A SITUATION SEEMS NEGATIVE, OR SOMEONE
SEEMS TO HAVE WRONGED YOU... LOOK UP ALL THE FACTS BEFORE
YOU MAKE JUDGMENT... YOU WILL PROBABLY FIND THAT THE
SITUATION HAS GROWN OUT OF INNOCENT AND UNAVOIDABLE
CIRCUMSTANCES
ALWAYS LOOK AT ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS FROM A
POSITIVE ANGLE
NEVER TRY TO CONTROL A SITUATION OR AN
OUTCOME ESPECIALLY IF THE SITUATION HAS ACTUALLY ARISEN
THROUGH SOMEONE ELSE RATHER THAN YOURSELF
LOOK WITH LOVE ON ALL THINGS, AND A POSITIVE
OUTCOME WILL ALWAYS BE ACHIEVED ONCE YOU LET GO OF CONTROL
LOVE IS THE ANSWER TO ALL THINGS AND BOY,
SOMETIMES THAT CAN SEEM SO HARD - AS WE LIVE IN A VERY
FEARFUL SOCIETY THESE DAYS WITH MUCH DANGER AND STRIFE AND
WE ALL NEED TO LEARN SOME FORGIVENESS - FOR OUR OWN ACTIONS
AS WELL AS OTHERS, BEFORE WE CAN ACHIEVE INNER PEACE.

Portugal's Prince Henry the Navigator is now praised
as the one whose vision and sailing innovations made
possible the great Atlantic explorers that rounded
the Cape of Good Hope and discovered America - and
the one who made his efforts because his status as a
noble required him to "carry out very great deeds."
The truth is less inspiring - he and his successors
sent forth sailors down the coast of Africa to bring
a trading fortune to the king, thus launching the
very first of what became the Atlantic/West African
slave trade. Worse, this enormously profitable slave
trade was justified as an essential part of new
Great Crusade against the Moors, 'the infidel' and
the 'sect of Mahomet' (Muhammad). And the
heartbreaking misery of slaves was justified because
their souls were to be saved as they were converted
to Christianity:
"Prince Henry wanted to make a name for himself as a
Crusader doing battle with the Moors, and by sending
his men against the Africans of the Sarahan coast,
and by describing his battles with them to the rest
of Europe as a succession of triumphant conquests
against the Moors, he could do just that. [A 1441
voyage he commissioned] represents a landmark event
in history: the moment when the official Portuguese
slave trade in Africa can be said to have begun. ...
"Later that year, after the first small cargo of
African slaves had arrived in Portugal (ten of them,
probably Berbers), Henry recognized that his sailors
had opened the door to something big. ...
"As Portuguese sailors began bringing slaves back to
Europe, Henry realized that he stood to make great
profits by eliminating the Arab and Genoese
middlemen who had for so long dominated the North
African slave trade with Europe. [His hagiographer]
Azurara claimed that Henry also had a loftier goal
in mind as he began to oversee the capture and
enslavement of more and more Africans: 'salvation
for the lost souls of the heathen.' Henry was doing
his captives a favor. 'For though their bodies were
now brought into some subjection,' Azurara
explained, 'that was a small matter in comparison of
their souls, which would now possess true freedom
for evermore.' " ...
"Skeptics in Portugal who had previously complained
about the great expense of Henry's African ventures
developed a sudden change of heart when they noticed
'the houses of others full to overflowing of male
and female slaves'; overcome with envy, Azurara
wrote, they had to 'turn their blame into public
praise.' ...
"The easy pickings along the Saharan coast [soon]
disappeared. Africans living along the Saharan coast
knew to flee inland at the sight of Portuguese
ships. Slavers and profit seekers sponsored by Henry
therefore had to press farther and farther south in
search of unsuspecting victims, and the result was
inevitable. In 1444, a Portuguese squire named Diniz
Diaz put out to sea and, according to Azurara, 'he
never lowered sail till he had passed the land of
the Moors [now Morocco] and arrived in the land of
the blacks [the modern-day countries of west
Africa].'
"But it wasn't just merchants and sailors who had
noticed Portugal's African discoveries. For decades
the Portuguese had worked hard - and successfully -
to convince the Church that their raiding trips
along the West African coast were part of an
organized Crusading campaign against the Moors.
Prince Henry was instrumental in this effort, and
indeed nobody in Portugal had better credentials for
the job. From 1419 until the end of his life, in
1460, he led Portugal's branch of the Order of
Christ (a successor organization to the Templars),
and in that capacity he wrote to the Church in Rome
repeatedly with reports of his valiant efforts to
wrest West Africa away from the infidel.
"The news from Portugal pleased the Church. During
the first half of the fifteenth century, a
succession of popes issued a series of official
decrees, or bulls, giving religious sanction to the
Portuguese conquest of all African territories not
already in Christian hands."

John's
comments: It seems there are no ends to which
the church has stooped in its eagerness to dominate
the world and save souls in the name of Christ, just
as long as they were on the winning side and it was
a gain to them financially and in sheer numbers
converted. Regardless of black or white, it
was all about numbers and being the dominant
religion, the biggest, the most followed,
the best, and anything else was considered
damnation. This gained them power over anyone
and everyone and to hell with the actual truth of
what Christ said and to hell with actually offering
true love and a conviction of basic humanity,
kindness and love;- unless you consider
enslaving innocent millions with cruel and inhuman
treatment where beatings, torture and murder
were all facilitated in the name of Christ.
This church, this institution, the barbaric madness
done in the name of religion is pure evil and the
church, in its way, is no better today. The
Pope disagreeing with the UK's laws on equality and
how gays are not worthy - is pure evil. the vile and
hate filled agendas of this nasty little man is
evident through his words and actions and if ever
there was an Anti Christ - he resides in the Vatican
and always has.

When the Bible was put together as a ‘library’ – or as a ‘collection of books’ –
which is what the word Bible means, it was massively edited. (around 200 - 400
BC) Many of the biblical documents were disliked by the founding fathers of the
church and simply thrown out,
 and
some have since been found in 1947 – The Dead Sea Scrolls and the Gnostic
Gospels. What was left was massively edited and many aspects of Christ’s
teachings were simply changed and distorted to suit the church. For a start -
Reincarnation was taken out, and Hell and Satan were put in. Sexuality was also
demonized and we have had almost two thousand years of hell and damnation
surrounding sexuality, and it is no wonder society is so screwed up when it
comes to this aspect of human nature.
This was done in order to
gain control over people so that the Christian church could rule supreme above
all other religions, however entrenched in the human psyche they were at the
time..
Prophets were revered as
long as they were dead – and as you couldn’t edit what someone was still
preaching, the church saw live prophets who wouldn’t keep to the edited versions
of the teachings, a threat, and called them evil witches.
The church actually turned
their backs on the very people that just a few generations earlier, they had
revered.
Most of the prophets were
women and gay men and throughout the world, women and gay men were often the
Shaman, healers, sooths and holy person, as they share similar bridges in the
brain that allows for an intuitive connection to God, and the church feared this
direct connection, and so saw fit to burn these people at the stake claiming
them to be speaking the words of Satan. .
The church actually denied
the word of God and murdered those who God spoke through.
---------------------------------
In the middle ages, people
lived in small hamlets and villages and countries like England were covered in
thick dense forests. These prophets – these healers – knew about herbal remedies
to help with pain and bleeding etc. and the local people would visit in times of
need and respected and befriended these odd balls who often lived apart from the
community – deep in the woods, and when they spoke their wisdom’s, the locals
listened. The church in their fear of trying to keep people in the towns and so
not hear any pagan or alternative truths compared to their edited versions,
hunted down and murdered these people for generations, just to stop anyone from
hearing something alternative.
Stories
like Hansel and Gretel were written in order to frighten children from
venturing into the woods to play and so enabled the church to garner a strangle
hold on what they were taught. By keeping them in the hamlets and villages, they
would not meet the pagans, the alternative gypsies, and would not hear about the
older religions.
T he
‘witch’ was then placed at the top of the fire while the gay men were bundled
together and put at the base of the fire with the bundles of kindling wood and
all were burned alive.
Anyt hing
that is bundled – is called a Faggot, and over the years the word has come to
stand for homosexual.
Mothers told their
children to hide any special gifts they may have had otherwise the church would
come for them, and within a generation women and little girls had forgotten, or
switched off, their intuitive gifts, and gay men went into the closet and nailed
the door shut behind them.
The Biblical writings were
then edited and the claim was made that God hated homosexuals, which is NOT what
the Bible originally said at all, and any claim otherwise is simply wrong.
Biblical writings never mentioned homosexuality, at least, certainly not in a
negative aspect.
The book of Leviticus is a
guide book of health given by the Rabbi’s to the tribes as they wondered around
the deserts dying out from food poisoning, to much inter breeding and bad
hygiene. In order for the tribes to become strong, they needed good diets, good
sanitation and strong families making strong babies. Gay men don’t make babies,
and the Rabbi knew that this had to change in order for the tribes survival
Leviticus was edited
accordingly and has been changed several times over the centuries, and in 1947
the word ‘homosexual’ was added to some of the English translation Bibles, but
DID NOT replace an older word in translation as the ancient languages never had
a word for homosexual. So it’s admission into the Bible is an abomination.
According to Leviticus,
eating crab, lobster, rabbit and pork, is an abomination. Touching dead pig skin
– growing more than one crop in a single field, interbreeding different cattle (
from which – 95% of the world milk comes from ) and even having your beard
trimmed in a specific manner, are all abominations. Wearing a fabric made from
two different blended fabrics, is as much an evil and two men fornicating
together, ( according to the Bible ) and when the Born Again’s or the Jehovah
Witnesses come banging on your door and start swallowing their tongues when you
tell them you are gay… just remind them that their cotton and polyester shirt or
sweater is just as much an abomination as anything else in the Bible, and that
being selective in their belief structure,- is not what God intended. If the
Bible truly is the word of God, then no man should be selective in what they
choose, or not, to believe.
As that is not very
Christian.

BUDDHISM
From modest beginnings in India in the sixth century
BCE, Buddhism spread through Asia and along with it
arose a vast chain of Buddhist monasteries that by the
seventh century CE provided commercial and diplomatic
links throughout the Asian world. This network of
monasteries extended from Persia (Iran) and Afghanistan
through the steppe country to India, China, Korea and
Japan, and then south to Java (Indonesia). Some
monasteries housed more than 10,000 monks. Yet within a
century, most Indian kings were patronizing Hindu gods
and temples, and Buddhism began to disappear from the
country of its origin, though it continued to flourish
elsewhere:
"In Buddhism, the individual monk was responsible for
his own progress toward enlightenment. It was up to him
to seek knowledge, study, and find the correct path. In
[the sixth century CE], the institutional structure for
this search was the chain of monasteries across much of
China. ...
"Buddhism spread steadily within India and out from
India along both land and maritime trade routes. By the
first centuries of the Common Era, Buddhism was the
predominant religion in the sprawling Kushan Empire that
stretched from Central Asia through Pakistan and
Afghanistan to the plains of India. Monasteries were an
important part of every oasis town on the caravan routes
from Afghanistan to China. Some monasteries were built
in isolated places to accommodate caravans whose
traders, in turn, donated money for their upkeep. Along
water routes, Buddhism spread from India to Sri Lanka,
into Southeast Asia, and eventually reached coastal
China. ...
"Buddhist monasteries provided practical benefits for
both a king and his subjects. The chain of monasteries
was an infrastructure that promoted trade. Wherever
Buddhism flourished, traders were prominent patrons of
shrines and monasteries. One incarnation of the Buddha,
the compassionate Avalokiteshvara, became a kind of
patron saint of traders and travelers. In a world of
disease and death, monasteries were also repositories of
medical knowledge. ...
"Everywhere Buddhism flourished it was supported by
royal and noble patronage, supplemented by pious women
and traders. Across the chain of Buddhist institutions
moved teachers, ritual objects, texts, medicines, ideas,
and trade. Curiosity and hospitality were hallmarks of
the system. Although specific practices might differ,
all Buddhist travelers, whether monk or layman, found
similar settings and symbols in Buddhist monasteries and
rest houses."

Genesis - Chapter 19
/ Leviticus - Chapters 18 & 20
Judges - Chapter 19
/ Romans - Chapter 1
1 Corinthians - Chapter 6
/ 1 Timothy -Chapter 1
Jude / Reflections
The term dates from the late 19th century, when human
sexuality began to be studied as a science.
There is no term that means homosexual orientation
in the original Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek texts of the Bible. The
authors of the Bible did not understand sexual orientation and thus did
not write about it. Biblical authors had little or no understanding of
same-sex committed relationships. Rather, they assumed that everyone was
heterosexual, but that some heterosexuals engaged in sex with persons of
the same gender. Thus, when you see one of these words in an English
translation of the Bible, it is important to dig deeper and find what
the original Hebrew or Greek text really means.

Today is a new beginning for you. The energies being transmitted to and from
Mother Earth and humanity have changed,- they have gone up a double octave, and
humanity now has the ability to vibrate at a much higher level than it has ever
done before. Your Lightbodies can create a balanced harmony wave between the
physical and the etheric and this links the soul and the physical mind in order
to transmit these frequencies throughout your physical world of matter and the
mental world of thought.
In bygone days when individuals
increased their vibrational energy levels and yet were still living in the lower
– more dense environment with their fellow man, it was hard and many could not
accept the life they were forced to continue living. Some went mad. Some were
hunted down by the church and those who feared them and burned or drowned, and
some, quite literally, managed to ascend and leave the lower levels behind and
continue on with their journey unencumbered by those who would deny them the
truth and by their heavy physical bodies.
These energies are used in forming
matter from energy in the creation of what you perceive to be reality, and the
higher the level, the purer the thought, the more you manifest Heaven on Earth
and so move into the light. With the coming of the Aquarian Age comes great
responsibility for humanity as s/he struggles and fights against change whilst
knowing it is inevitable. The few, it seems, are ready and are making a huge
song and dance for everyone else to witness and to open their awareness as to
what is happening, and although many consider this to be crazy and inhuman,
their eyes will be opened, their minds will expand and they will all become
fully open and ready to embrace the change that started to take place a long
time ago.
These are the final days, my children, these are the exciting times that many of
you have been waiting for, planning and working hard towards, and there is
little for you to actually do, now, but wait, sit back and watch, enjoy and
wonder at how easy – how magnificent and how majestic is the power of the ‘All
That Is’ and how you make that power work.
For it is you. The energies you call
God, are you, and without you, nothing matters as nothing exists, not even what
you dream of in your wildest imaginings, as nothing is being created without
your matter mind to create it.
God can imagine and create anything –
but only in consciousness – and matter does not reside in consciousness. Matter
lives in a deeper, more dense world that inhabits a lower frequency band, and it
is here that humanity has found a home for many millions of years – and it is
here than the conscious mind has become trapped and imprisoned, partly because
of the lower energy but mostly because you, as free will beings, have chosen
this level of understanding and imprisonment as your home, for fear of change.
The church and society has been so well maintained to hide the truth from you
concerning the reality of reality, that for you, the reality is what you see,
feel, taste, hear and smell, and you have allowed your 6th sense to become
dormant and little used. There have been those who have stood forward and made
statements through this 6th sense and these people have been persecuted and
destroyed in a bid to keep humankind in its emotional and psychological prison.
But the time is at hand when a jail break has been slowly commencing and more
and more people – more and more minds – have escaped – have grown wise, and have
found a journey out of the quagmire of your own making and have moved into the
light.
It is happening more and more each
day. To people around you and to those you meet. Some are aware, while others
are not. Some are helping while others resist. Whatever they choose to do, is
their choice and we respect their decisions. For nothing is ever wrong. It may
seem so, but the outcome of every situation – EVERY SITUATION – is guaranteed
and known before the thought that creates the situation has even been had by the
mind that ultimately, in the human form, created it. It may seem like a jumble
of confusion, pain and anguish, love and joy, ups and downs, but the Divine Plan
is in action at all times and in all minds – regardless of how it may seem to
you.
Trust and all will be revealed.
Believing is seeing.
The time is at hand for all to know
the truth and I can only ask that you be who you were born, this time, to be,
and do what is in your heart. Nothing matters. Your ‘job’ as you see it – is to
do your best – and we ask nothing more, in fact, we ask nothing at all. You are
creating your own destiny for yourself, your fellow man and your world and how
you choose to follow that path is and always has been, totally up to you and
no-one else. Many pray to God for help and advise and guidance – and God is
always there to help and assist, and it is your conscious thoughts that create
the answers to your prayers and your own physical matter that creates the
answers. Not what you perceive to be God.
Be of the light. Be aware of the new
energies and realize them in your body mind and soul.
They are here to help bring you home.

I found this piece on my computer some months after writing it and was
surprised to see that I was up and channeling at 8.30am.
When I read it, it moved me dearly,- for although written in my style, this
piece came through me by the energy known as the Archangel Michael, which is the
first time I had ever channeled in this manner before.
I hope you enjoy it.
8.30am/28/04/03
....................................
These are truly trying times for you, my children
and I am here today to remind you that nothing new is occurring
on your planet at this time that you yourselves have not
manifested into reality, and that which you have chosen to see and live by.
.
Yet the time is right for you to see a different path, a different angle on
your worlds problems and anxieties;- for by continuing to concentrate your
energies on 911, the war in Iraq and all the other warring factions that
predominate your news bulletins and media with amazing repetition;- will it
continue.
.
For your thoughts are very powerful, and in keeping your mind trapped in
negative thoughts of death and destruction, of murder and persecution,
conspiracy theories and manipulation, lies and deceit; will it continue.
For you are creating it.
That is not to say you must ignore and turn the other cheek in order to pretend
it does not exist and so live out your life, your reality, in a cocoon of
innocence and positive thought while those around you are hurt. Nor does it mean
that you are to blind yourself to the pains and anguish on your planet at this
time;- for there is much of this being created by so many;- yet you alone can
change it.
These changing times. This painful age for many. As you say, the shit is
hitting the fan, and only by concentrating on the positive, the good, the
honest, the truth and the loving, will anything ever change. Does that seem like
a long shot in the dark, a dream, a fantasy of unrealistic possibilities that
has been imagined by someone with high hopes and a misconceived illusion for the
future? Someone who has high hopes for humanity maybe far higher than you
personally believe capable ?
.
Maybe. Maybe not.
Perhaps the one stumbling block in all of this is your belief structure.
For many believe that nothing can change, that they are victims that they
cannot alter the world and the multitudes of people because, after all, they are
just one.
Yet the power of one is the power of all that is.
.
The universe as you know it evolves around the thoughts
of just one person, you.
For no-one else sees it quite the way you see it;- no-one lives life quite the
way you do; no-one else has the potential for change quite the way that you
have, and no-one has the power within themselves to manifest honesty, truth and
love into the world in quite
such a way, as you.
.
Collectively you can do this. Collectively you HAVE done this,
as this war, this fear based place you find yourselves
living within since 911,
has in fact been manifested by you alone and no-one else.
.
Strange as that may seem.
.
For collectively your fear based emotions have generated a being, a fellow
human being into existence, to facilitate great angers and great fears in order
to manifest more of the same, and you have contributed towards this. Each of you
who live in fear and anxiety for your daily lives and for the future of
humanity..
You want to rid the world of great evil, and when you try to do this with
tanks and bombs you find it creates a whole new vista of evil you had no thought
or awareness of beforehand, and those you are liberating see you as an equal to
the evil you are trying to rid. All of humankind are equal and all of humankind
understands the concepts of love and freedom, yet many deny this to others as a
way of freeing them, yet are enslaving in much the same way as the regime they
are removing.
.
For limiting and denying another the freedom of will, and the freedom to
live, behave and believe in their own religion in their own way, is denying them
the rights as human beings and as spiritual souls to their own version of
freedom and free will and denying another this basic spiritual law of
understanding, is denying the soul its journey forward - especially now. The
time has come for all of humankind to take a step out of this darkened place it
has dwelt under for so long, and move into the light of understanding and love.
Only through the realization that one man, one woman
or even one child,
can and will change this world of yours,- forever.
.
Only through seeing with different eyes. Only by changing the basic
premise of your thoughts. Only by willing something to happen and having faith.
Only by having a belief. Only by trusting in the power of what is right and only
by listening to the truth that you know to be the truth that dwells within your
heart, will you change your thoughts and ultimately change the future for all of
humankind.
.
You understand my words as you read them and you know that what is said
is true. Your ego mind may deny as your freedom of thought will struggle to
accept. Allow the truth to wash over your consciousness and allow it to rest for
a while within your being. Be with it and make friends with it. Allow a
different picture to manifest within your minds eye and permit a different dream
to form within, manifested through acceptance and love. For all that is - is in
perfect order at all times.
.
It may not seem so and it may seem wrong to you, but the only thing in
all of this, the only thing that will ever need to be changed, is not a
warring nation or a dominant and cruel dictator or the armies of an enemy, or
any such thing. No-one will ever change your world in such a way , and no notion
or political ideology will ever work;- nor any religious, cultural or endemic
belief will ever be of any use to a single one of you, if your thoughts are
trapped within your head in a negative fashion.
.
Only by thinking in a different way.
.
Only by changing your views on the world and on what
you perceive to be reality,
will you ever transform anything..
Positive thought is the most powerful weapon you can ever choose. More powerful
than anything your scientists or armies, church or priest, have ever possessed.
.
So be at peace within yourselves. Take responsibility for all that you
say and do and watch out for those damning words, those spiteful thoughts and
those moments when you think we should just go bomb the hell out of them.
.
Read. Listen. Discern truth from untruths and if it does not serve
humanity as a whole, then it is an unsound path to follow.
.
When a nation takes up arms against another and hides its reasons behind
lies and mistruths in an attempt to rid the world of what it perceives to be an
evil, then that nation is as wrong and as evil. When one nation states that 'You
are either with us, or against us' - this denies others the freedom of thought,-
the freedom of will, and the freedom of being an independent soul on its own
journey.
.
Send loving thoughts for Saddam, Bush and Blair. Send loving thoughts for
all those you fear and surround these beings with loving energies from within
your soul. For they are you.
.
Be at peace within yourselves and the world will be manifested accordingly.
In peace
Michael

Dear Friends,
Life is a beautiful interplay of
imagination and manifestation. Known in other ways as
feeling and thought, feminine and masculine, yin yang, each
requires and adds to the other. In an amazing dance that
allows us to create and recreate our world, these energies
continuously merge into each other to form a union that
brings wholeness to our expression. Inspiration held with
determination is what creates our physical experience and
when this process is conscious and balanced, great
manifestations result that benefit all.
Identified simply as our feminine and
masculine aspects, these forces combine to make up our
innate creative potential. Although often exemplified by our
gender, we must take care not to confuse this strictly with
being male or female. Both of these potent energies are a
natural part of each of us and provide the very mechanism
for our ability to exist. They are our right and left brain
functioning as one, with love and logic in perfect harmony.
For millennia, cultures have held a
fundamental focus and tendency towards the masculine aspect
having dominion, where physical manifestation is at the cost
of suppressing our intuitive, holistic, and imaginative,
feminine energy. This ongoing and increasing imbalance has
formed a great rift from our once splendid ability to create
with wisdom, universal vision and magnificence.
Thus we find many men using their will
to make things materialize regardless of cost to the whole,
while subordinating their feminine equal into roles that
ignore and trivialize the nurturing and imaginative aspects
so vital to life. Likewise, many women deny their ability
to fully realize their creations in manifest form and
perpetuate the dilemma of subservience to male domination.
In recent times, we have born witness
to a re-awakening of the feminine energy. For many females,
this has been a necessary reclaiming of their “goddess”
energy or divine feminine, which in reality is their
embracing the fullness of both aspects essential to
manifest, including the masculine will. In men, however, we
often find confusion and frustration as this loving energy
begins to percolate throughout their existence. They are
beginning to feel once again, and yet with so few examples
as to what this means, there is a tendency to remain in the
only perspective they have known for so long.
Life always seeks balance. With an
increasing awareness of cause and effect, we are quickly
seeing that what happens in one part of the world instantly
affects the whole just as our thoughts and feelings work
together in our personal experience. We are coming to
realize that it is up to each of us to embrace our true
creative potential and ensure that we balance the feminine
with the masculine. Nowhere is this more evident than with
the men who have been constantly using their unbridled will
without regard to consequences.
It is time for the divine masculine to
emerge through love. What does this mean? It is a wakeup
call for each to embody their highest potential of masculine
energy. Rather than perpetuating an imbalanced approach to
creation that ultimately leads to destruction and chaos, it
is our distinct opportunity to embrace and express our
integrity, honesty, dignity and compassion. It is allowing
the rising feminine energy to blend with our masculine to
make enlightened and loving choices. By consciously
acknowledging and incorporating our imagination, intuition
and feelings, with courage, strength, and an open heart, we
birth a new world where love, wisdom and power are always in
balance.
Love, light and peace,

Grandma is eighty-eight years old and still drives her own car.
She writes:
Dear Grand-daughter,
The other day I went up to
our local Christian book store and saw a
'Honk if you love Jesus'
bumper sticker ..
I was feeling particularly
sassy that day because I had just come from a
thrilling choir performance,
followed by thunderous prayer meeting.
So, I bought the sticker and
put it on my bumper.
Boy, am I glad I did; what an
uplifting experience that followed.
I was stopped at a red light
at a busy intersection, just lost in
thought about the Lord and
how good he is, and I didn't notice that the
light had changed. It
is a good thing someone else loves Jesus because if he hadn't
honked, I'd never have
noticed. I
found that lots of people love Jesus!
While I was sitting there,
the guy behind started honking like crazy,
and then he leaned out of his
window and screamed, 'For the love of
God!'
'Go! Go! Go! Jesus Christ,
GO!'
What an exuberant cheerleader
he was for Jesus!
Everyone started honking! I just leaned out my window
and started waving and smiling at all those
loving people. I even honked my horn a few
times to share in the love! There must have been a man
from Florida back
there because I heard him
yelling something about a
sunny beach. I saw another guy waving in a
funny way with only his middle finger
stuck up in the air. I
asked my young teenage grandson in the back seat what that
meant. He
said it was probably a Hawaiian good luck sign or something.
Well, I have never met anyone
from Hawaii ,
so I leaned out the window
and gave him the good luck
sign right back. My grandson burst out
laughing. Why even he was enjoying this
religious experience!! A couple of the people were
so caught up in the joy of the moment that
they got out of their cars
and started walking towards me. I
bet they wanted to pray or ask what church I attended, but this
is when I noticed the
light had changed.
So, grinning, I waved at all
my brothers and sisters, and drove on
through the intersection. I noticed that I was the only
car that got through the intersection
before the light changed
again and felt kind of sad that I had to leave hem after all the
love we had shared. So I slowed the car down,
leaned out the window and gave them all the
Hawaiian good luck sign one
last time as I drove away. Praise the Lord
for such wonderful folks!!
Will write again soon, Love, Grandma |
This Simbol(Yin-Yang) represents the ancient Chinese
understanding of how things work. The outer circle
represents "everything", while the black and white
shapes within the circle represent the interaction
of two energies, called "yin" (black) and "yang"
(white), which cause everything to happen. They are
not completely black or white, just as things in
life are not completely black or white, and they
cannot exist without each other.
While "yin" would be dark, passive, downward, cold,
contracting, and weak, "yang" would be bright,
active, upward, hot, expanding, and strong. The
shape of the yin and yang sections of the symbol,
actually gives you a sense of the continual movement
of these two energies, yin to yang and yang to yin,
causing everything to happen: just as things expand
and contract, and temperature changes from hot to
cold.
Yin and Yang In Medical Theory
The concepts of Yin and Yang and the Five Agents
provided the intellectual framework of much of
Chinese scientific thinking especially in fields
like biology and medicine The organs of the body
were seen to be interrelated in the same sorts of
ways as other natural phenomena, and best understood
by looking for correlations and correspondences.
Illness was seen as a disturbance in the balance of
Yin and Yang or the Five Agents caused by emotions,
heat or cold, or other influences. Therapy thus
depended on accurate diagnosis of the source of the
imbalance.
The earliest surviving medical texts are fragments
of manuscript from early Han tombs. Besides general
theory, these texts cover drugs, gymnastics, minor
surgery, and magic spells. The text which was to
become the main source of medical theory also
apparently dates from the Han. It is the Yellow
Emperor's Classic of Medicine, supposed to have been
written during the third millennium BCE by the
mythical Yellow Emperor. A small portion of it is
given below.
The Yellow Emperor said ''The principle of Yin and
Yang is the foundation of the entire universe. It
underlies everything in creation. It brings about
the development of parenthood; it is the root and
source of life and death it is found with the
temples of the gods In order to treat and cure
diseases one must search for their origins.
"Heaven was created by the concentration of Yang,
the force of light, earth was created by the
concentration of Yin, the forces of darkness. Yang
stands for peace and serenity; Yin stands for
confusion and turmoil. Yang stands for destruction;
Yin stands for conservation. Yang brings about
disintegration; Yin gives shape to things....
The pure and lucid element of light is manifested in
the upper artifices and the turbid element of
darkness is manifested in the lower orifices. Yang,
the element of light, originates in the pores. Yin,
the element of darkness, moves within the five
viscera. Yang the lucid force of light truly is
represented by the four extremities- and Yin the
turbid force of darkness stores the power of the six
treasures of nature. Water is an embodiment of Yin
as fire is an embodiment of Yang. Yang creates the
air, while Yin creates the senses, which belong to
the physical body When the physical body dies, the
spirit is restored to the air, its natural
environment. The spirit receives its nourishment
through the air, and the body receives its
nourishment through the senses
"If Yang is overly powerful, then Yin may be too
weak. If Yin is particularly strong, then Yang is
apt to be defective If the male force is
overwhelming, then there will be excessive heat. If
the female force is overwhelming, then there will be
excessive cold. Exposure to repeated and severe heat
will induce chills. Cold injures the body while heat
injures the spirit When the spirit is hurt, severe
pain will ensue. When the body is hurt, there will
be swelling. Thus, when severe pain occurs first and
swelling comes on later, one may infer that a
disharmony in the spirit has done harm to the body.
Likewise, when swelling appears first and severe
pain is felt later on, one can say that a
dysfunction in the body has injured the spirit....
"Nature has four seasons and five elements. To grant
long life, these seasons and elements must store up
the power of creation in cold, heat, dryness,
moisture, and wind. Man has five viscera in which
these five climates are transformed into joy, anger,
sympathy, grief. and fear. The emotions of joy and
anger are injurious to the spirit just as cold and
heat are injurious to the body. Violent anger
depletes Yin; violent joy depletes Yang. When
rebellious emotions rise to Heaven the pulse expires
and leaves the body When joy and anger are without
moderation, then cold and heat exceed all measure,
and life is no longer secure. Yin and Yang should be
respected to an equal extent.
The Yellow Emperor asked, "Is there any alternative
to the law of Yin and Yang?"
Qi
Bo answered: "When Yang is the stronger, the body is
hot, the pores are closed, and people begin to pant;
they become boisterous and coarse and do not
perspire. They become feverish, their mouths are dry
and sore, their stomachs feel tight, and they die of
constipation. When Yang is the stronger, people can
endure winter but not summer. When Yin is the
stronger, the body is cold and covered with
perspiration. People realize they are ill; they
tremble and feel chilly. When they feel chilled,
their spirits become rebellious. Their stomachs can
no long digest food and they die. When Yin is
stronger, people can endure summer but not winter.
Thus Yin and Yang alternate. Their ebbs and surges
vary, and so does the character of the diseases."
The Yellow Emperor asked, "Can anything be done to
harmonize and adjust these two principles of
nature?" Qi Bo answered: "If one has the ability to
know the seven injuries and the eight advantages,
one can bring the two principles into harmony. If
one does not know how to use this knowledge, his
life will be doomed to early decay. By the age of
forty the Yin force in the body has been reduced to
one-half of its natural vigor and an individual's
youthful prowess has deteriorated. By the age of
fifty the body has grown heavy. The ears no longer
hear well. The eyes no longer see clearly By the age
of sixty the life producing power of Yin has
declined to a very low level. Impotence sets in The
nine orifices no longer benefit each other....
Those who seek wisdom beyond the natural limits will
retain good hearing and clear vision. Their bodies
will remain light and strong. Although they grow old
in years, they will stay able-bodied and vigorous
and be capable of governing to great advantage. For
this reason the ancient sages did not rush into the
affairs of the world. In their pleasures and joys
they were dignified and tranquil. They did what they
thought best and did not bend their will or ambition
to the achievement of empty ends Thus their allotted
span of life was without limit, like that of Heaven
and earth. This is the way the ancient sages
controlled and conducted themselves.
"By observing myself I learn about others, and their
diseases become apparent to me. By observing the
external symptoms, I gather knowledge about the
internal diseases One should watch for things out of
the ordinary One should observe minute and trifling
things and treat them as if the were big and
important. When they are treated the danger they
pose will be dissipated. Experts in examining
patients judge their general appearance; they feel
their pulse and determine whether it is Yin or Yang
that causes the disease.... To determine whether Yin
or Yang predominates, one must be able to
distinguish a light pulse of low tension from a
hard. pounding one With a disease of Yang, Yin
predominates With a disease of Yin, Yang
predominates When one is filled with vigor and
strength, Yin and Yang are in proper harmony.

From modest beginnings in
India in the sixth century BCE, Buddhism had
spread through Asia and along with it arose
a vast chain of Buddhist monasteries that by
the seventh century CE provided commercial
and diplomatic links throughout the Asian
world. This network of monasteries extended
from Persia (Iran) and Afghanistan through
the steppe country to India, China, Korea
and Japan, and then south to Java
(Indonesia). Some monasteries housed more
than 10,000 monks. Yet within a century,
most Indian kings were patronizing Hindu
gods and temples, and Buddhism began to
disappear from the country of its origin,
though it continued to flourish elsewhere:
"In Buddhism, the individual monk was
responsible for his own progress toward
enlightenment. It was up to him to seek
knowledge, study, and find the correct path.
In [the sixth century CE], the institutional
structure for this search was the chain of
monasteries across much of China. ...
Buddhism
spread steadily within India and out from
India along both land and maritime trade
routes. By the first centuries of the Common
Era, Buddhism was the predominant religion
in the sprawling Kushan Empire that
stretched from Central Asia through Pakistan
and Afghanistan to the plains of India.
Monasteries were an important part of every
oasis town on the caravan routes from
Afghanistan to China. Some monasteries were
built in isolated places to accommodate
caravans whose traders, in turn, donated
money for their upkeep. Along water routes,
Buddhism spread from India to Sri Lanka,
into Southeast Asia, and eventually reached
coastal China. ...
"Buddhist monasteries provided practical
benefits for both a king and his subjects.
The chain of monasteries was an
infrastructure that promoted trade. Wherever
Buddhism flourished, traders were prominent
patrons of shrines and monasteries. One
incarnation of the Buddha, the compassionate
Avalokiteshvara, became a kind of patron
saint of traders and travelers. In a world
of disease and death, monasteries were also
repositories of medical knowledge. ...
"Everywhere Buddhism flourished it was
supported by royal and noble patronage,
supplemented by pious women and traders.
Across the chain of Buddhist institutions
moved teachers, ritual objects, texts,
medicines, ideas, and trade. Curiosity and
hospitality were hallmarks of the system.
Although specific practices might differ,
all Buddhist travelers, whether monk or
layman, found similar settings and symbols
in Buddhist monasteries and rest houses."

How can
your Imagination help you receive Intuitive messages?
Research has found that the exact same areas of the brain light up whether
we are viewing an actual physical object, or the same object imagined.
Science reasons from this that our brains can’t tell the difference from the
actual thing or the imagined thing. Therefore, when we are thinking about
something either real or imagined we are transmitting that same vibration.
The Law of Attraction
The Law of Attraction says that which is like unto itself is drawn, in other
words, whatever we think about whether it is a real object or event, or an
imagined object or event, the same vibration is being transmitted… and
objects or things of a like vibration are drawn to you.
Your Guidance System
Whenever we are thinking about, or acting upon, or talking about something
that IS in harmony with our higher intentions for this lifetime, then our
higher selves offer a good feeling in response. However, when we are
thinking or doing or speaking about something that is NOT in harmony with
our higher intentions then we are given a not so good feeling in the moment
of that thought. This let’s us know clearly when we are walking our Path and
when we’re not.
Which Feels Better?
When attempting to receive an answer to a question you might have about a
decision you must make, try this… First, think of one of the choices you
could make. Think about what you would be doing if you made that choice, and
while doing this notice how you feel. How does your stomach feel? Does it
feel queasy? Tense? Nauseated? If so, this is your guidance system telling
you… better not choose this way. Then, think of another of the choices you
could make, continuing the process of thinking about it and then checking in
with your feelings.
Which choice feels better? Which one
brings you a sense of peace? When you can answer these two questions
affirmatively about the same choice, then you have your answer!
Checking in with your feelings is beneficial when standing at a crossroads
of decision making.
I played a similar game with a friend of mine one time where we both went to
a tree-forested park arriving in different cars and parking in different
lots, with the intent of trying to find each other by using our feelings to
give us a sense of direction. While doing this, I thought about whether to
go on this path or that one, and then I would check in with my feelings
while considering each direction independently. I discovered that I always
received a better feeling when I was thinking about moving in the correct
direction! It didn’t take long to reach my destination! I walked right to
him in a park the size of a square mile!
Fine Tuning
If you have trouble, you might want to reconsider daily meditation as a way
to sensitize yourself to these feelings which are your guidance system.
What do your ‘feelings’ tell you about the benefits of meditation? If you
realized that meditation would sharpen your focus and clarify the guidance
you receive from your higher self, would
you find the time to practice daily?

Something fun and light below...
One of
our favorite jobs has been leading junior church. We try to do more
than baby-sit our church's beloved little ankle-biters during their time
in our special junior church facility. We aim to give them a solid
background in biblical history. At the end of each year, we give them
pencils and paper and ask them to chronicle what they have learned. This
assignment never fails to elicit some intriguing responses. In case
you're a little foggy on your biblical history, let our junior church
students help you with this complete overview of the Bible, compiled
from their essays:
In the beginning, which occurred near the start, there was nothing but
God, darkness, and some gas. The Bible says, 'The Lord thy God is one,'
but I think He must be a lot older than that. Anyway, God said, 'Give
me a light!' and someone did. Then God made the world. He split the
Adam and made Eve.
Adam and Eve were naked, but they weren't embarrassed because mirrors
hadn't been invented yet. Adam and Eve disobeyed God by eating one bad
apple, so they were driven from the Garden of Even. Not sure what they
were driven in though, because they didn't have cars.
 Adam
and Eve had a son, Cain, who hated his brother as long as he was Abel.
Pretty soon all of the early people died off, except for Methuselah, who
lived to be like a million or something. One of the next important
people was Noah, who was a good guy, but one of his kids was kind of a
ham. Noah built a large boat and put his family and some animals on
it. He asked some other people to join him, but they said they would
have to take a rain check.
After Noah came Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Jacob was more famous than
his brother, Esau, because Esau sold Jacob his birthmark in exchange for
some pot roast. Jacob had a son named Joseph who wore a really loud
sports coat.
Another important Bible guy is Moses, whose real name was Charlton
Heston. Moses led the Israel Lights out of Egypt and away from the evil
Pharaoh after God sent ten plagues on Pharaoh's people. These plagues
included frogs, mice, lice, bowels, and no cable. God fed the Israel
Lights every day with manicotti. Then He gave them His top ten
commandments. These include don't lie, cheat, smoke, dance, or covet
your neighbor's bottom (the Bible uses a bad word for bottom that I'm
not supposed to say. But my Dad uses it sometimes when he talks about
politicians.) Oh, yeah, I just thought of one more: Humor thy father and
thy mother.
One of Moses' best helpers was Joshua, who was the first Bible guy to
use spies. Joshua fought the battle of Geritol and the fence fell over
on the town.
After Joshua came David. He got to be king by killing a
giant with a slingshot. He had a son named Solomon who had about 300
wives and 500 porcupines. My teacher says he was wise, but that doesn't
sound very wise to me.
After  Solomon there were a bunch of major league prophets. One of these
was Jonah, who was swallowed by a big whale and then barfed up on the
shore. There were also some minor league prophets, but I guess we don't
have to worry about them.
After the Old Testament came the New Testament. Jesus is the star of
the New Testament. He was born in Bethlehem in a barn. (I wish I had
been born in a barn, too, because my mother was always saying to me,
Close the door! Were you born in a barn?' It would be nice to say, 'As
a matter of fact, I was.')
During His life, Jesus had many arguments with sinners like the
Pharisees and the Republicans. Jesus also had twelve opossums. The
worst one was Judas Asparagus. Judas was so evil that they named a
terrible vegetable after him.
Jesus was a great man. He healed many leopards and even preached to
some Germans on the Mount. But the Republicans and all those guys put
Jesus on trial before Pontius the Pilot. Pilot didn't stick up for
Jesus. He just washed his hands instead.
Anyways, Jesus died for our sins, then came back to life again. He went
up to Heaven, but will be back at the end of the Aluminum. His return
is foretold in the book of Revolution.

In the
beginning God covered the earth with broccoli,
Cauliflower and spinach, with green, yellow and red
Vegetables of all kinds so Man and Woman would live
Long and healthy lives.
Then using God's bountiful gifts, Satan created Dairy
Ice Cream and Magnums. And Satan said, 'You want hot
Fudge with that? And Man said, 'Yes!' And Woman said,
'I'll have one too with chocolate chips'. And lo they
Gained 10 pounds.
And God created the healthy yoghurt that woman might
Keep the figure that man found so fair.
And Satan brought forth white flour from the wheat and
Sugar from the cane and combined them. And Woman went
From size 12 to size14.
So God said, 'Try my fresh green salad'. And Satan
Presented Blue Cheese dressing and garlic croutons on
The side. And Man and Woman unfastened their belts
Following the repast.
God then said 'I have sent you healthy vegetables and
Olive oil in which to cook them'.
And Satan brought forth deep fried coconut king prawns,
Butter-dipped lobster chunks and chicken fried steak,
So big it needed its own
Platter, and Man's cholesterol
Went through the roof.
Then God brought forth the potato; naturally low in fat
And brimming with potassium and good nutrition.
Then Satan peeled off the healthy skin and sliced the
Starchy centre into chips and deep-fried them in animal
Fats adding copious quantities of salt. And Man put on
More pounds. God then brought forth running shoes so that
His Children might lose those extra pounds.
And Satan came forth with a cable TV with remote control
So Man would not have to toil changing the channels. And
Man and Woman laughed and cried before the flickering
Light and started wearing stretch jogging suits.
Then God gave lean beef so that Man might consume fewer
Calories and still satisfy his appetite.
And Satan created McDonalds and the 99p double
Cheeseburger. Then Satan said 'You want fries with
That?' and Man replied, 'Yes, and super size 'em'.
And Satan said, 'It is good.' And Man and Woman went
Into cardiac arrest.
God sighed......... And created quadruple by-pass Surgery.
And then .......... Satan chuckled and created The National Health
Service.
THE FINAL WORD ON NUTRITION
After an exhaustive review of the research literature,
here's the final word on nutrition and health.:
1. Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
2. Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
3. Chinese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks
than us.
4. Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine and suffer fewer heart
attacks than us.
5. Germans drink beer and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer
heart attacks than us.
6. The French eat Foie-Gras, full fat cheese and drink red wine and
suffer fewer heart attacks than us
CONCLUSION: Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently
what kills you.

1. QUIT WORRYING
Life has dealt you a blow and all you do is sit and worry. Have you forgotten
that I am here to take all your burdens and carry them for you ? Or do you just
enjoy fretting over every little thing that comes your way?

Something needs done or taken care of. Put it on the list. No, not YOUR list.
Put it on MY to-do-list. Let ME be the one to take care of the problem. I can't
help you until you turn it over to me. And although my to-do-list is long, I am
after all, God. I can take care of anything you put into my hands. In fact, if
the truth were ever really known, I take care of a lot of things for you that
you never even
realize.
3. TRUST ME
Once you've given your burdens to me, quit trying to take them back. Trust in
me. Have the faith that I will take care of all your needs, your problems and
your trials. Problems with the kids? Put them on my list. Problem with finances
? Put it on my list. Problems with your emotional roller coaster ? For My sake,
put it on my list. I want to help you. All you have to do is ask.
4. LEAVE IT ALONE
Don't wake up one morning and say, "Well, I'm feeling much stronger now, I think
I can handle it from here." Why do you think you are feeling stronger now? It's
simple. You gave me your burdens nd I'm taking care of them. I also renew your
strength and cover you in my peace. Don't you know that if I give you these
problems back, you will be right back where you started ? Leave them with me and
forget about them. Just let me do my job.
5. TALK TO ME
I want you to forget a lot of things. Forget what was making you crazy. Forget
the worry and the fretting because you know I'm in control. But there's one
thing I pray you never forget. Please don't forget to talk to me - OFTEN! I love
you. I want to hear your voice. I want you to include me in on the things going
on in your life. I want to hear you talk about your friends and family. Prayer
is simply you having a conversation with me. I want to be your dearest friend.
6. HAVE FAITH
I see a lot of things from up here that you can't see from where you are. Have
faith in me that I know what I'm doing. Trust me, you wouldn't want the view
from my eyes. I will continue to care for you, watch over you, and meet your
needs. You only have to trust me. Although I have a much bigger task than you,
it seems as if you have so much trouble just doing your simple part. How hard
can trust be?
7. SHARE
You were taught to share when you were only two years old. When did you forget ?
That rule still applies. Share with those who are less fortunate than you. Share
your joy with those who need encouragement. Share your laughter with those who
haven't heard any in such a long time. Share your tears with those who have
forgotten how to cry. Share your faith with those who have none.
8. BE PATIENT
I managed to fix it so in just one lifetime you could have so many diverse
experiences. You grow from a child to an adult, have children, change jobs many
times, learn many trades, travel to so many places, meet thousands of people,
and experience so much. How can you be so impatient then when it takes me a
little longer than you expect to handle something on my to-do-list ? Trust in my
timing, for my timing is perfect. Just because I created the entire universe in
only six days, everyone thinks I should always rush, rush, rush.
9. BE KIND
Be kind to others, for I love them just
as much as I love you. They may not dress like you, or talk like you, or live
the same way you do, but I still love you all. Please try to get along, for my
sake. I created each of you different in some way. It would be too boring > if
you were all identical. Please know I love each of your differences.
10. LOVE YOURSELF
As much as I love you, how can you not love yourself ? You were created by me
for one reason only - to be loved, and to love in return. I am a God of Love.
Love me. Love your neighbors. But also love yourself. It makes my heart ache
when I see you so angry with yourself when things go wrong. You are very
precious to me. Don't ever forget that!
With all my heart, I love you, GOD
Religion is for those people who
believe in Hell.
Spirituality is for those of us who have been there.

I found this book at a festival some
years ago and Christine herself was behind the counter. We spoke and she was
absolutely charming. She later came to my home in Hammersmith to give a talk on
the subject and we had about 20 guys turn up for it.
We were all fascinated.
Her book is an easy to read guide showing you how to apply simple techniques to
improve and enhance your home and workplace, and by following some of the things
mentioned, it was amazing how the energies in my home changed. The most
interesting thing for me, was the house numbers, detailed below, which was spot
on for my London house and spot on for Hamilton Hall, and I wish to share that
bit with you here.
THE NUMBER OF YOUR HOUSE , where
you add all the numbers of your house together until you end up with a single
number, and that’s the number you check against the list below. So – my old
address was 61 Southerton Road, and 6 + 1 = 7 : so the number for me while at
that address would be 7.
In a house where there are letters in
the address, such as 15A Clapham Avenue, the letter is regarded as a number and
counted accordingly… A = 1 : B = 2 : C = 3 etc.
So a house at 15A would be 1+5+1 = 7.
See how you make out from the list
below:
House number 1:
This is about openness, independence and
self development. People attracted to this house are usually on solitary
journey. It can be good for individual creative careers. Although there can be a
tendency to isolate in this house it is also good for self-reflection and
getting in touch with emotions. It is a good place to begin to understand the
next step in life’s destiny.
House number 2:
The two house is where we find balance
and harmony. A place to discover others as mirrors of ourselves. A place to
understand relationships and partnership ventures. We learn to surrender to the
opposite and find ying and yang balance.
House number 3:
The three house is about bringing
spirituality into our lives, connecting mind, body and spirit. A good house for
creating openness, growth and optimism. This is a place where different cultures
can live together easily. It is a good house for parties and socializing. A good
house if wanting to start a family. A positive house.
House number 4:
A house for gaining security. Here we
have the meeting of the four elements. Good for establishing roots and future
foundations. Good for group gatherings but not parties. Nurses, or those in the
helping profession are usually attracted to these houses. There can be a
tendency to over work and take life too seriously.
House number 5:
The number five house is about freedom.
It is a very lively and active house. It is ruled by Mercury and therefore is
about communication. Often chosen by journalists and those in the media. It is
ideal for travel and exploration. However, it is a house for free spirits, much
partying and romantic flings. Therefore, it is not ideal for close couples.
House number 6:
This house is good for family and
children. People in the caring profession, counsellors and co-dependants are
often attracted to this house. A good house for establishing close
relationships. Ruled by Venus, it is a house where strong emotions are felt.
House number 7:
In this house you can work easily with
the mystical side of life. Although not a good house for gaining wealth and
relationships , it is a good place to connect and commit to a spiritual cause.
Clairvoyance, intuition and psychic energy can be felt here.
House number 8:
This house is good for creating
abundance. Leaders and those guiding or in authoritive positions will do well
here. Good friendships can be established here. As there is a lot of activity in
this house and much to be gained, there needs to be a focus of energy, otherwise
friends may get neglected and will feel exhausted.
House number 9:
The nine house is about completion.
Ruled by Mars which inspires, leads and generates. This is a good house to
connect with world preservation causes and to gain knowledge of a global kind.
Spiritual leaders do well here and will find that people will take note of them.
All work previously undertaken will come to fruition here.

a book to change your life - with Nealle Donald Walsch and God
editorial by John Bellamy
Some years ago now, a man was really
pissed off. His life seemed to be going down the toilet, and late one evening, he chose
the rather redundant idea of writing a letter to God complaining about his lot
in life. If nothing else, it might make him feel good or as a ritual, might
change his viewpoint somehow.
He sat and he wrote for some hours,
a five page letter getting it all off his chest. Job. Money. Family.
Relationships. Life. Death. The lot just poured onto the paper, and when he
finished, he sat there with the pen in his hand and relaxed.
But his hand moved across the paper
and wrote something extra that he was not in control of.
It said – “Which question would you
like me to answer first.”
Being a little confused, and
probably tired by the lateness of the night, he wrote in answer –
“Who is this.”
And once again, pen in hand, it
wrote
“God of course. You wrote. Did you
think I wouldn’t reply.”
This grew into a most unusual
correspondence between the man, Neale Donald Walsch, and God, and we have had
the pleasure of this conversation in the first of several books entitled
‘Conversations With God’ which was number one in the New York Times Best Sellers
List for OVER 18 months when it was released some years ago.
In the book, God talks to us all as a
kindly parent would, just speaks about all the points that Neale had written
about and that effect every one of us daily. Work, Relationships, Money, Sex
etc.
Of all the books I have read, and of
all the books I have promoted as a
MUST READ, Book One in the trilogy is the most important and easiest read
you might ever find in your entire life, and although you can continue reading a
hundred other spiritual / religious books to find your journey, this one book
has all the answers you are ever likely to need. It has changed many peoples
lives for the better. Mine included.
I wept as I read it. I highlighted
great sections and underlined prophetic points. I re-read chapters twice because
of the implications and ease in which God lays it all on the line. And I felt I
was having a very personal relationship – my own conversation, with God.
I can’t even begin to tell you how
delighted I was to find this book. To learn how God views us, and how we have
all been misinformed about what God is, and how God sees things and how – to be
honest – evil – God has been made out to be by various institutions whose jobs
have been at stake, and the control of mankind through its damnable vision of
God, which couldn’t be further from the truth.
For God loves us unconditionally, and
in the book God states that even Hitler went to Heaven, as there is nowhere else
he could have gone. Hell doesn’t exist ( it was invented by the Roman Church to
garner control over our souls )
I fell deeply in love with God – for
the first time – really – and have had my own conversation with God ever since.
Sadly, many don’t even like the thought of there even being a God at all, as
after 2,000 years of dogmatic rhetoric from the various church’s damning our
souls to the hell-fires for just about anything they could think of and claiming
it was all being done in the name of God, many have turned, or are turning, away
from anything to do with God, which is a shame, as this book, this marvelous
book, enlightens your soul and welcomes you back to a God who loves you
unconditionally.
Completely.
