Chakra Cleansing

Here is an exercise to keep cleanse the chakras. This is often necessary if you think of all the different energies which are floating around; all the negative energy worked up in an argument or by someone being horrible to you. All these things stay around you like a metal is attracted to a magnet.

Make sure you are relaxed, you can lie down or sit in a chair, then take some deep breaths.

Gradually sink down where you are, imagine your feet feeling relaxed and limp.

Imagine your legs doing the same, going up through your solar plexus and up to the base of your neck.

Let it go down your arms into your hands and to the very tips of your fingers, then go back to the base of your neck, let your shoulders go all limp, then up to the top of your head, now you should feel totally relaxed.

Visualise roots coming out of your feet, let them go into the ground, visualise them going to the very source of the earth's energy.

Visualise deep red energy and put your roots into it, then start drawing the energy up through your roots, like a tree does with water.

Then visualise a bright golden light above you, breath the light into your lungs, like glittering air.

Draw both of these energies into your groin, which is your ROOT chakra point. Visualise a RED disc, you should be able to see if it is dirty. Let these energies wash over it like a wave against cliffs, washing the dirt away. When you feel that it is done move to your STOMACH chakra, which is ORANGE, and repeat the process. Do the same to your solar plexus, which is YELLOW, then your HEART, which is GREEN, your THROAT, which is BLUE, then your THIRD-EYE which is VIOLET and lastly the CROWN which is a brilliant WHITE.

Now imagine your aura see it all around you feel it look at all the colours swirling around, and if you feel or see any junk or dirt floating around get the red and golden energy to flush it out never to come back again. When you have finished that visualise your roots drawing back into you, do not worry about the energy that is left inside you, either store it or send it into them world.

Today has been a time of great reflection and contemplation. The opportunity to meet with like soul minds was a gratifying experience. Feeling refreshed and with renewed vigour I prepare for this current working. With no specific 'focus' planned I adapt the method of an open channel once more.

A close friend, of mine, who passed many years previous, moves in close. She was a healer in her day. An Irish mystic with a powerful love for life. She moves in close with a gentleness and a fearlessness. A valour which she wishes to be extended to the material plane. There is no need to fear. Fear is an illusion, brought to the earth plane by those who wish dominance over fellow man. Without fear, they have no hold. This appears an exercise in generating fear. A time of healing now comes to help release those shackles created by fear. Ireland is most surely the key. It provides the link with those who are close at hand to where and when little Maddy disappeared. She says she can watch the little girl. A glowing light around her. Full of LIFE. Very much alive; many spirits are looking after her sent by psychics and mediums around the world. It is time to hold in your heart to forgive and heal those who were behind the disappearance. Unlock the barrier of fear they use to control. Mystics unite and will them to release this little girl. This girl is safe and is kept safe. NO harm has befallen her. She sees the little girl Maddy play in grassy meadows with soil on her clothes and wind in her hair. Her hair is not quite the same as it was, it has been cut a different way and the colour is slightly different but it is the same girl. Others who are around her know and are sworn to secrecy. Maddy's chair is a wooden high chair ... which scrapes on wooden floorboards. There is a wooden dresser nearby. A woman like a housekeeper wears a skirt with a predominately green tarten pattern. She talks with a southern lilt which she recognises as being part of her own part of the country. County ..... (withheld). There is peat bog close by and a range rover which drives into the nearest town. There is indeed a building like a castle nearby. High stone walls ... stained glass windows out of which the little girl looks out. They are tarnished with age and there has been much rain. She looks out to water and boats and gulls. She still smiles. She carries her family in her heart and in her mind. My friend hears what spirit has to say about them conveying to the little girl she is safe. The general feeling is she is bound to be returned. They who hold her play the waiting game. They know the attention this story commands. They know too that she is to be moved again. Back south. Back to close to where she was taken. There is to be no fear of eyes stalking these words. Those who hold her already know ... but can comprehend that intelligence keeps them safe because Maddy is there in plain sight ... held by links to such a powerful family. Through the profession of Gerry & Kate there is a direct link. That intelligence have been canny with their planning and with the way they were able to establish a link within the ranks of those close to the McCanns and it has not been discovered as yet. My friend's presence now fades .... leaving me once more alone ...

Those who link have property investments in several countries. There network is hidden behind smaller businesses of blank faces. The phone line will prove to be a helpful cause but also a helpful smokescreen for those who implicate Maddy's safe return. Most surely Spain features and has featured in their plans. Their influence stretches from Portugal, through Spain and France; as well as Eire and other European countries. The careful intelligence keep attention fixed firmly on the significant eye without drawing undue attention from the rebel faction of the open eye.

The cunning fox is seen in the foreground of the Page of Beasts once more. The Page still holds the empty bowl despite all the efforts to till the soil. No dividends or rewards as yet for all the continued efforts of the search ... all the stones unturned and all the investigation. The cunning fox continues its mesmerising jig in the foreground and nobody is any wiser with regard to the 'tilling of the field'. True facts are still hard to find. The trickery of the cunning fox by way of the media speculation keeps everything hidden. The cunning fox suggests a hand in the proceedings and a keen eye to know where to guide the attention of the observer away from what is going on.

To the left the 7 of Birds - dishonesty - we cannot trust or believe much of what it related to the situation via the media. We should have learned of this by now. Disregard the jig of the cunning fox ... step back and realise it all for ourselves. There is a great deception here.

The Warrior of Fishes is the outcome ... the prayer answered. The pathway which is being denied by the cunning fox and the tales woven forcing everyone to expect the worst.

Note the circuit of stones which have fallen on the 8 of Birds reversed and the 9 of Serpents ... the latter the card of endurance. It means the situation has gone around and around the same circuit. Run the saw course a number of times. It moves from the start forwards back to the star again. Much like going back to the start of the circle. Surely this cannot go on much longer ... someone somewhere has been stringing this out ... keeping it firmly in the news without actually providing any solid evidence. I know I've mentioned this before in the past ... but on reflection I realise it must be said again.

There are too many lose ends here amid the secrecy laws. That which is portrayed on the outside is not the real news. The Universe image indicates there is a shell or glamour around the true picture ... the hermaphrodite figure in the image is seen to symbolically emerge from within from the core of the truth ... to emerge in the public eye ... as characters in the story which the public are bought and sold by ... The Page of Fishes indicates something is being resolved most surely behind this vow of secrecy. Something of the highest high appears to be within the core ... events and discussions and concerns not for the general public. Something on the drawing board long planned and most surely executed ... something well underway ... something that may never been known. Even after the time Maddy has been returned. A sense that October fades and November arrives. Into December and there is fresh ideas. Fresh news. Different opinions. New faces on which to muse. Arrival at a crossroads ... literally ... back in the late July time when something key was disregarded it can be revisited once more again. All those sightings not reviewed or taken seriously must surely be looked at once again. New clues.

Sekhem Scepter

Many types of batons and scepters share the above determinative in written Egyptians. It is relatively difficult to differentiate between the various scepters and their respective offices. However, the glyph is generally understood to represent the sekhem scepter. The scepter appears to have originated in Abydos and as a fetish of Osiris.

The sekhem scepter denotes the concept of "power" and "might". The word sekhem could also refer to divine beings, and even the stars, as "powers". The name of the warlike goddess Sekhmet means "Mighty One". The god Osiris was often called, "Great Sekhem" or "Foremost of Powers". Therefore, the sekhem was often used as a symbol of the underworld deity. Due to its association with the underworld god, the scepter also became an emblem of another mortuary god, Anubis. The scepter was often shown with the reclining god, as shown above.

After the 3rd Dynasty, the sekhem appeared in the royal names of the pharaohs, and later in the titles of queens and princesses as well. However, from the earliest times, viziers and other officials of important rank held the sekhem. Such officials were often portrayed holding the scepter in the course of performing their duties. The classic Egyptian funerary statue depicted the deceased with a staff in one hand, and the sekhem in the other. As a scepter of office, a pair of eyes were carved on the upper part of the staff.

The sekhem was also utilized in temple and mortuary offering rituals. The officiant who presented the offerings often held it. In such cases the scepter was held in the right hand and was waved four or five times over the offerings while ritual recitations were being made. A gilded sekhem scepter was found in Tutankhamun's tomb. On the back of this scepter were carved five registers depicting a slaughtered bull, which may indicate that the scepter was waved five times over the offering.

Death Threats?

Gerry and Kate McCann are having panic buttons installed at their home after the parents of missing Madeleine received a string of death threats.

They were given a police guard when they arrived home in Leicestershire, days after being quizzed by Portuguese detectives after being declared official suspects seven weeks ago.

But a family source has revealed the 24-hour protection has now been withdrawn and panic buttons linked directly to their local police station will be used instead. (Daily Star)

The 'Life Line'

Your Life Line starts on the edge of your palm, in between your index finger and thumb. It extends down your palm. Situated below your heart and head lines, this line will tell you about the quality of your life.

How to read your life line:
A life line that runs close to your thumb indicates that you are often tired. If your line is curvy, you have a lot of energy. A long, deep lifeline indicates that you’ll have a long, healthy life filled with vitality. If the line is short and shallow, then it may indicate that you let others control your life for you. If the line swoops around in a semicircle, you have tremendous strength and enthusiasm. If the line is straight and stays close to the edge of your palm, you are cautious when it comes to relationships and often hold back from love. If you have two or even three life lines, then this means you have extra vitality and positivism around you.

Variations on the life line: A circle in your life line indicates that you were hospitalised or injured. A break indicates a sudden change in lifestyle, such as an accident, illness or heartbreak. If you have lines that extend up and beyond your life line, then you are good at recovering from bad situations, but if you have lines that extend below your life
line, you tend to waste energy.

Blair 'scared to fall out with Bush' in run-up to Iraq war

Tony Blair was too worried about falling out of favour with George Bush to warn him of the perilous consequences of war with Iraq. That is the damning portrait of the former Prime Minister that emerges from the highest level of the British and American governments in the latest extracts of a new book by political biographer Dr Anthony Seldon.

The attacks are led by former US Secretary of State Colin Powell who, according to Blair Unbound, secretly plotted with ex-Foreign Secretary Jack Straw to restrain Mr Bush and Mr Blair.

They will do little to help Mr Blair shrug off claims that he was Mr Bush's "poodle". (Sunday Mail)

McCanns face agonising wait to clear their names

Kate and Gerry McCann may have to wait nearly a year for details of the Portuguese police case against them. They had expected to be given access to the files on November 14 so they could begin preparing their defence.

But police have applied to the investigating judge to have the deadline extended because they are still awaiting the results of forensic tests from Birmingham. And they have yet to question some of the so-called Tapas Nine, the McCanns' friends who were with them on the night their daughter Madeleine, now four, disappeared.

If the judge, Pedro Frias, grants the extension and gives the case "special complexity" status, it will mean the couple will not learn exactly what they are accused of until May at the earliest, and possibly much later.

It represents a serious blow to the McCanns, who were hoping to have their status as "arguidos" (official suspects) lifted early so they could concentrate on searching for their daughter. (Sunday Mail)

Ain Soph

A divine Ray exists within the human being. That Ray wants to return back into its own Star that has always smiled upon it. The Star that guides our interior is a super divine Atom from the Abstract Absolute Space. The Kabbalistic name of that atom is the sacred Ain Soph.

The Ain Soph is our atomic Star. This Star radiates within the Absolute Abstract Space full of glory. Precisely in this order, Kether (the Father), Chokmah (the Son) and Binah (the Holy Spirit) of every human being emanate from this Star. The Ain Soph, the Star that guides our interior, sent its Ray into the world in order to become cognizant of its own happiness.

Happiness without cognizance of happiness is not real happiness.

The Ray (the spirit) had cognizance as a mineral, plant and animal. When the ray incarnated for the first time within the wild and primitive human body, the Ray awoke as a human being and had self-cognizance of its own happiness. Then the Ray could have returned into its own Star that guides its interior.

Disgracefully, within he profound bosom of the voracious and dense jungle, wild desire gave birth to the “I.” The instinctive forces of nature trapped the innocent mind of the human being and the false mirage of desire emerged.

Then, the “I” continued reincarnating in order to satisfy its desires. Thus, we remained submitted to the Law of Evolution and Karma.

Experiences and pain complicated the “I.” Evolution is a complicated process of the energy. The “I” became strong with experiences. Now it is too late. Millions of people have been converted into monstrous demons. Only a tremendous revolution can save us from the abyss.

When the human being dissolves the “I,” then there is a complete revolution.

Human beings will stop suffering when they are capable of dissolving the “I.” Pain is the result of our evil deeds.

Pain is Satan (the psychological “I”), because Satan is the one that makes the evil deeds. The Abstract Absolute Space, the Universal Spirit of Life, is absolute happiness, supreme peace and abundance.

The “I” is dissolved with Alchemy. Desire is the root of the “I.” Desire is transmuted with Alchemy.

If you want to annihilate desire, you need to transmute. Sexual desire is transformed into willpower and willpower is fire. Miserly desire (greed) is transmuted into altruism. Anger (frustrated desire) is transmuted into sweetness. Envy (frustrated desire) is transmuted into happiness for the good of others. The words of desire are transmuted into words of wisdom, etc.

Analyze all the human defects and you will see that they have their foundation in desire. Transmute desire with Alchemy and desire will be annihilated. Whosoever annihilates desire dissolves the “I.” Whosoever dissolves the “I” is saved from the Abyss returns into his own interior Star that has always smiled unto him.

Only with the Holy Alchemy we can dissolved the “I.” The fundamental base of Alchemy is the Arcanum A.Z.F. The Angels, Archangels, Seraphim, Potencies, Thrones, etc., are the exact outcome of tremendous interior revolutions.

We already passed through an involution (the descent of the Spirit into Matter). We already suffer horribly in the evolution (a complicated process of the energy). Now a complete revolution is urgent (the dissolution of the “I”). No one can be happy until reaching his interior Star. We return to the super divine Atom based only on internal revolutions; little by little, we pass through the Angelic, Archangelic, Seraphimic, Logic, etc. states until finally the Ray will fuse with its Star, the Ain Soph that shines with happiness.

The Abyss is terribly painful. The horrible antithesis of the Ain Soph is the abyss, the Klipoth of Kabbalah. The Klippoth are atomic, tenebrous, they belong to the lunar path.

Magick Journal

First Entry

It is necessary for every magician to keep a diary or journal of all his or her experiences. A record of every phenomenon however big or small. A journal of methods and insights.

It acts as a means of checking back on trails travelled previously. A means to assess experiments in the magic field ... a way of checking back; a means of going back to the start to redevelop the variables to try for a different result.

In future days and weeks a magical journal will be written in A Light In The Darkness ... there is nothing new under the sun they say ... but each and every day has something new coming along. New phenomenon or fresh approaches to old ways. Visualisations or insights that need to be recorded.

Hence ... the need. Intuit decrees it is vital at this time. Especially with the manifestation of an intense raising of energy at this time. Soreness around the neck .. swollen glands ... intense headaches ... as the energy is raised up the spine and reaches a bottleneck in the head. With comprehension this bottleneck will be widened and the cobra permitted to pass. The burning and fizzing at the back of the tongue is the clue something subtle is required to breach the obstacle at these gates once more. The energy is higher than the last time but it is a venture round the same but at a different perspective this time.

Only written experiences will explain ..

Order Out Of Confusion

"Order Out Of Confusion"

Crystallomancy (Crystal Ball Divination)

The Maya used the crystal which was sacred to the Sun God Tezcatlipoca and his temple walls were lined with mirrors. Apache Indians gazed into crystals, not only to discover if an expedition would be successful but to find the location of property and ponies stolen by other tribes.

Crystal ball divination became popular in Europe in the fifteenth century when it was believed that spirits or angels would appear in the glass. Rituals were long and complex. One in a sixteenth century manuscript included purification rituals as well as invoking protection from God and the good angels: ‘First say one Paternoster, one Ave Maria, one Creed, then say Vobiscum Spiritu, God of Abraham, God of Isaac, God Of Jacob, God of Elias . . . who hast given virtues to stones, woods and herbs, consecrate this stone.’

One of the most famous scryers was Sir John Dee (1527-1608) who was astrologer to Queen Elizabeth I. On November 21, 1582, he bought a crystal ‘as big as an egg, most bryght, clere and glorious’ and through this sphere he communicated with his angels. These not only gave him all kinds of knowledge, but, he believed, protected both the Queen and England. He called his crystal his ‘shew-stone’. It was not a clear crystal, but an obsidian, a stone through which light can be seen when held to the sun. It is said that this crystal provided forewarning of the Spanish Armada.

Although the crystal ball is the most mystical of all divinatory forms, it is quite accessible, whether you use a conventional sphere of deep blue or yellow beryl or clear crystal quartz, a household mirror or a clear glass, paperweight or even a large spherical glass such as a brandy glass.

Crystal Balls can be used as oracles of divination by those who are clairvoyant. They come in many sizes, shapes, colors, types of crystal, with varying inclusions that sometimes allow a psychic to see things within the images created by the crystal itself, or more to the point, use of a clear quartz crystal ball with few inclusions or imperfections, and watching holographic images appear within. "Within what?" you ask. Within the psychic's mind as guided by spirit or the client's soul imprint.

Psychics are generally attracted to the crystal ball they will use, based on the frequency of the crystal. As with any crystal, the larger the crystal ball, the stronger the energies and viewing area. Gazing into a clear crystal ball opens the third eye and allows the psychic to see images. As with all crystals that come into your life, the right crystal ball just seems to call to you. There is something in the frequency of the crystal that feels right.

To use the crystal ball, place the crystal ball on a stand on a table that has a clear surface. To begin the reading, some psychics have rituals, while others, such as myself, just gaze into the crystal ball and wait for images to appear. These images are produced by the third eye of the psychic. Images within the crystal ball may appear as stationary or move around as if viewing a hologram. Two people gazing into a crystal ball at the same time, may see different images.

As with all forms of divination, images often appear as archetypes, whose interpretation is left for the reader or the person having the reading. The larger the image appears in the crystal ball, the closer the timeline for it to manifest in third dimension, and the more significant the information. Images my appear stationary, or move about. They may appear two dimensional or holographic. If you cannot 'see' anything in the crystal ball at first, be patient and keep trying. At the very least a crystal ball will bring energies to the room in which it is placed.

Man Utd 4-1 Middlesbrough

Wayne Rooney scored one goal and superbly set up another as Manchester United overwhelmed Middlesbrough to move to the top of the Premier League.

United went ahead on three minutes when Nani drove in a cracking shot from 30 yards but Jeremie Aliadiere soon equalised with a precise header. Nani robbed Stuart Downing and played in Rooney, to smash United's second. After the break Carlos Tevez slotted in after a sublime Rooney back-heel and he added a fourth with a deflected shot.

United knew a win would see them overtake leaders Arsenal - at least until Sunday when the Londoners play Liverpool. And the hosts, who had Owen Hargreaves in their starting line-up for only the fourth time, wasted no time in setting about their task.

Nani decided to take the direct approach after picking the ball up deep in Boro's half. He skipped two challenges as he cut inside and then launched a dipping shot from 30 yards which beat Mark Schwarzer for height and pace. It was a dream start for United but a nightmare for Boro, who went into the game desperately short of confidence after failing to win in their previous six matches.

And the visitors still appeared shell-shocked when Tevez broke through the middle but the Argentine did not quite get his attempted lob right and Schwarzer made a comfortable catch. But Tuncay clearly felt a re-write was in order and promptly delivered the perfect cross - after turning stand-in left-back John O'Shea inside-out - for Aliadiere to head into the bottom left corner.

It was Aliadiere's first goal for Boro and it served to galvanise them. For the next 10 minutes, Boro held their own as United's early fluency deserted them. The visitors even missed a great chance to take the lead as frequent threat Tuncay crossed in for Downing to head just wide of the right hand post.

Still, you felt once United smoothed out their now-stuttering approach play, Boro could find themselves in trouble once more. And so it proved, as Ronaldo went close with a low shot from the left side of the box as United slipped through the gears.

Then Downing tried to trick his way past Nani on the edge of his area but had the ball nicked from his toes and played into the path of Rooney who smashed the ball home.

For the rest of the half, it seemed it was a matter of time before United scored again, particularly through Ronaldo. But the Portuguese winger could not convert Nani's cross and later side-footed straight at Schwarzer after a slick passing move.

Immediately after the break, Rooney fizzed a drive just too high and wide and once more it seemed United were about to turn the screw. Middlesbrough might have prevented it had Edwin van der Sar not been equal to Lee Cattermole's rising shot. But after Rooney produced an exquisite backheel for Tevez to slot the ball into the bottom corner on 55 minutes, the contest was over.

Ronaldo started to stretch his legs again, twisting and turning the Boro defence but not finding a finish to match. United took off Hargreaves for Darren Fletcher on 66 minutes, and later took the chance to give Rio Ferdinand an extended rest ahead of next Sunday's visit to Arsenal.

It barely affected the pattern of the game, although Boro almost cut United's lead when Downing went close with a curling free-kick. But instead, Tevez rounded things off for United with 15 minutes to go when his shot looped off Andrew Taylor and beat a disconsolate Schwarzer.

It was the fourth match in succession they had scored four goals - equalling a record which stretched back to 1907. (BBC Sport)

Quick insights for the immediate future. What can be anticipated on the road ahead?'

'A light bulb'
A light bulb?

'A light bulb will come one for something else to be seen in a clear light. It's already been told that things will become clearer in the weeks ahead. Read between the lines to understand what follows on this road.

The location of the 8 of weapons ... centrally placed in this image ... the focus of all the 'attention' ... is 'The Secret' ... the biggest secret. Between the Empress and that central image is the black stone of secrets and the agate shard which is best interpreted as 'moments of despair'. Thus The Empress is totally innocent and unaware of that locality.

The crystal casting fell around the sides and the bottom of the central image. Forming like a protective barrier around the 8 of Weapons. Interestingly on the other side of the 8 of Weapons we find The Star. On the bottom right of the 3 of Crescents - 'birth' - we can peruse the 'eye' stone. Beside the 3 of Crescents is the Ten of Staves reversed. It depicts a character imprisoned in a wooden cage. Reversed it confirms the Empress's innocence ... it confirms she was wrongly accused. But it also indicate that Maddy's release is relatively close. The Sun image is a reminder of everything right in life; an indication I feel intuitively of the need for a celebration. This complex trail (depicted by the network of crystals) is a baffling scenario to those on the outside who are deliberately kept confused and none the wiser. Kept 'entertained' by the false speculations and the trail of false leads and pointed fingers. But for those on the inside looking out; those who are aware of the truth behind this matrix ... the scenario cannot be simpler. The top three images which have no crystal cast upon them ... the 6 of Staves, Judgement, 7 of Weapons ... here we have the concealed elements of the matrix. Those quarters kept away from all the scrutiny. Judgement appears to be here .... note thus the exchange of the bundle of six swords for the one flaming sword. The 6 of Staves indicates the sense of achievement which will come.

The pink crystal to the right of the Empress ... it has a small indent on its side. Intuited the stone represents the full lifespan of Maddy ... the tiny indent indicates her four years to date. It is makes but a small percentage of the total area of the crystal in truth. Thus ... it represents the fact that Maddy has her whole life ahead of her still; that she is still very much alive ... with it on the left shoulder of the Empress ... it indicates that Maddy will be returned to spend her life at the side of her Mother. I sense that as the meaning without doubt.

I do not see what it is I want to see with the insights ...I say what I am told is there... remember I am Medium too ... I hear as well as see. I merely repeat what is placed in my consciousness to say. I pass forth the insights which are there in my consciousness ... I could convey the same information in the Daily Merlin insights without any tarot spread or any other divination aid. I harness the aid of the Tarot to provide some visual representation of the information which I receive.

**Update 11:10pm**
Difficulties are still outlined ahead. A 'gap' in time appears to be of relevance. Several things will all seem to come at once. Bombardment of the channels. Confusion reigning with so many 'bees' buzzing at once. It will be so hard to determine which trail will lead to the Star in the end.

It seems from the casting that the locality of the 8 of Weapons is perhaps a place that the Empress has previously travelled to. A location of which there is familiarity to Maddy. A building with walls lined with antique paintings, ceremonial swords and armour? Wooden floors. Loud music played drifts through into the part of the house where Maddy plays. An elderly man frequents this building and sees her. All appear to know the mystery ... are aware of the signficance of keeping her hidden. Hidden = safe. Hidden does not mean taken for abuse or cruel deeds. There is a sense of gentleness and concern for her with those who are her custodians. I have this again; over and over again this emanates from those around her. She misses her real family, she asks after them ... they console her that in time she will return but there is nothing she can do .... time moves quickly for her but not they ... they call themselves extended family to her. To her they are familiar ... it appears she met them before she was taken.

Front Page News

Daily Express Front Page for Saturday 27th October 2007 'Be Kind To Kate; says: 'The mother of Kate McCann made a desperate appeal to the public last night. Susan Healy insisted her daughter was not on the brink of a nervous breakdown but begged: “Please be kinder to her. She has enough to cope with.Yes, she is distressed at times and she can’t smile that often at the moment but she is very strong and she is going to fight on to get Madeleine back."

The heartfelt plea came after an astonishing attack on GP Kate by a Spanish psychiatrist, who claimed she was unbalanced. The “vile criticism” prompted Mrs Healy to speak out in defence of her daughter. “People are saying she’s at breaking point but she’s not going to have a breakdown,” she said.

But Mrs Healy, 61, said: “You couldn’t get a more heartfelt interview than that. I’m her mum, I know, and yet people still don’t believe her. Kate and Gerry can’t win either way. Kate was speaking for herself in that interview – there were no restraints on her at all. Yes, she was very distressed at times but she can’t be blamed for that.”

She said a phone poll in which nearly 70 per cent of callers said they thought the couple were lying was yet another smear campaign. She insisted her daughter would not be cowed by it, adding: “Kate is strong and will continue to remain strong. She will not allow this to have a great effect on her."

Talking about 39-year-old Kate’s perceived calmness and coldness and waif-like appearance, Mrs Healy said: “That is just the way she looks. Sometimes she looks gaunt but her stature and her facial expression are like that. She can’t smile that often at the moment, unless she’s with the twins. But she continues to be criticised by certain areas of the media, backed by the public.”

The 'First Painter' Syndrome

Who taught the first painter to paint? What practical book of oil painting or watercolours was around when the first time urge came to illustrate a tapestry with a colourful representation of what was on the artist's mind? Nothing. No teacher was there to criticise or point out the right or the wrong. The first one was the he or she who did what came instinctively. They let it flow naturally. The did what felt right ... free from the criticism of others. Then down through the ages, as recognised styles developed ... it became more and more 'wrong' to express a 'free style' and it became more of the norm to have to paint exactly as it is taught or it is written in books.

It is exactly the same at times with mysticism. With clairvoyancy in particular. From bitter self experience I found the world of self development a world lacking in free styles. It is a world where the mystic is expected to follow the same road as all of those who have gone before. If he or she doesn't then they get 'shackles' tied to their ankles and they get criticised. They get operantly conditioned that they are 'not old enough' to read professionally; they cannot have the abilities they claim because they have not followed the pathway that has been apparently laid down as the only way to develop as a medium or a clairvoyant.

The same can be said with The Tarot. With Tarot card reading. The norm dictates that tarot cards must be studied intimately and their 'book readings' .... the 'norm' on what they mean and what they can 'only mean because so and so said so' ... learned parrot fashion. There appears no room or acceptance for freestyle anymore.

Remember, that which is written is only an opinion. It is only what someone else has interpreted what the image means. It doesn't make that meaning as being cast in stone. That first interpretation could have been wrong. It may have worked for the first person who created the image. The first who laid down the pathway at that time. It doesn't automatically mean it is right for each and everyone.

No. I walked away from the world of the Psychic Centre and the Spiritualist Church. There is no room for a freestyle mystic there. Freestyle Mystic can read as a chaos magician, but I don't really care. I have methods which I have developed ... the 'first painter' syndrome in other words ... methods which work extremely well for me. Methods which have reaped uncanny accuracy time and time and time again. Methods I do not force on others because I visualise we manifest in a freestyle world. Each and every one of us has freewill and the right to self expression. In that freestyle world we are all entitled to our own self expression.

Applying this therefore to my freestyle method of divination. To my long sojourn as the 'professional tarot reader' ... I have a deep respect for the 'book meanings' of the tarot images. I respect the subconscious images which are contained within the tarot. I do not begrudge anyone who read the tarot in that way ... but for me I interpret the tarot differently. I find the way which is right for myself .. for my own self expression. It is from this slant that I practice divination. I respect therefore that there will be many experienced tarot readers out there ... who will view my Daily Merlin insights and obtain completely different meanings to what appears in the workings. It does not mean what I have seen is wrong. Remember thus that the primary use of the Tarot is as a key to open the door to the super conscious part of the psyche. It is an aid and a springboard ... nothing more. Tarot is designed as the means to access the altered states of consciousness ... this is why I use the tarot ... as the means to the end like the key to open the door. They are not the end result. They are but the start, the beginning of the projection. They are thus my connection between this world and the others ...

Without A Net

As we create the life of our dreams, we often reach a crossroads where the choices seem to involve the risk of facing the unknown versus the safety and comfort of all that we have come to trust. We may feel like a tightrope walker, carefully teetering along the narrow path to our goals, sometimes feeling that we are doing so without a net. Knowing we have some backup may help us work up the courage to take those first steps, until we are secure in knowing that we have the skills to work without one. But when we live our lives from a place of balance and trust in the universe, we may not see our source of support, but we can know that it is there.

If we refuse to act only if we can see the safety net, we may be allowing the net to become a trap as it creates a barrier between us and the freedom to pursue our goals. Change is inherent in life, so even what we have learned to trust can surprise us at any moment. Remove fear from the equation and then, without even wondering what is going on below, we can devote our full attention to the dream that awaits us.

We attract support into our lives when we are willing to make those first tentative steps, trusting that the universe will provide exactly what we need. In that process we can decide that whatever comes from our actions is only for our highest and best experience of growth. It may come in the form of a soft landing, an unexpected rescue or an eye-opening experience gleaned only from the process of falling. So rather than allowing our lives to be dictated by fear of the unknown, or trying to avoid falling, we can appreciate that sometimes we experience life fully when we are willing to trust and fall. And in doing so, we may just find that we have the wings to fly.

When we believe that there is a reason for everything, we are stepping out with the safety net of the universe, and we know we will make the best from whatever comes our way.

Kate set to sue

Angry Kate and Gerry McCann may sue over claims this week’s emotional TV interview was “staged like theatre”.

Kate, 39, was blasted as being like a “poker player” – and her heartfelt tears were called “part of the act” by a psychiatrist. And Gerry, 39, “controlled” Kate in the Spanish TV broadcast, Jose Cabrera claimed.

Last night a pal of the McCanns said: “When the time is right they will take action against anyone who they feel has overstepped the mark. He is one more person on the list to sue.The people who criticised Kate when she managed to hold it together are now attacking her because she couldn’t.”

Kate and Gerry think daughter Madeleine, four – who vanished from Praia da Luz, Portugal, on May 3 – may be in Spain. (Sky News)

Of The Nine

'Of The Nine'
Sigilart by Matthew James

Inspired by the Daily Merlin insight on 22nd October 2007. It appears to relate to the 'group mind' of the Tapas 9. The background of the image is interesting. It was initially a mixture of green and yellow ... on Paint Shop Pro which I use to create the images ... there is a 'negative' function with creates a negative of the colours in the background. The above colours are a result of this function. The purple and the mauve indicative of higher mind activity. Of strong perceptions relating to the energies of the sigil which is representative of the 9.

The cyclic pattern in the background is another interesting creation. Totally unintentional. By using the sharpen function several times the four pointed cross-like pattern begins to appear. It is further accentuated by use of the median function. An interesting shape relating to the group. It has the striking similarity to a Maltese Cross does it not?

Remember the theory of Sigils have it they are formed to activate the sub-conscious to provide information or an outcome relating to the spell contained within the sigil. It is a two way process ... the higher mind able to pass information through the sigil to the lower mind. Sigils contain a truly potent energy force ... that is the theory. The practice won't always be accepted by those of sceptical mind ... it could be coincidence the background appeared in this way. It could .. but symbolism has been my forte for decades now. I look for these specific instances.

The crystal casting was explicit with the appearance of twelve crystals ... as if the Tapas Group was actually twelve in number ... three more than the alleged Tapas Nine.There is a clear purpose behind that night.

These Dreams

Classic song by Heart



A favourite track which is a timeless classic. A real track for walking down memory lane back to those halcyon days of the 80's.

You have many more abductions than Portugal, but nobody talks about that

An ambassador’s postbag usually consists of a few gold-edged invitations to state occasions – instead, Antonio Santana Carlos is swamped by emotional letters from the British public about the disappearance of a little girl.

After Madeleine McCann went missing, the onslaught was overwhelmingly negative. Now, he says, it is mixed – the impassioned camp of Portuguese-blamers, joined by those who condemn the parents, with a lunatic fringe unhealthily excited by the case and who think that they know where the body is. Six months on the mail keeps coming.

Perhaps initially it was some relief for Mr Santana Carlos to come to London after years of conducting highly sensitive negotiations over the hand-over of Macau to China. But only six months after he arrived in Britain the McCann case broke and he was back in a diplomatic minefield.

Some reports in the British press branded the Portuguese police as lazy, inept, secretive and drunk and, in the hysteria, an impression was created that the place was a haven for paedophiles. Relaying these reports back to his home country gave Mr Santana Carlos a heavy heart – they caused uproar among his fellow citizens.

The drowning of a group of British holidaymakers in the Algarve this week has added to the tensions. Britain and Portugal have, as he said, “the oldest alliance in the world” between two states, dating back to 1386, still flourishing in the form of two million British tourists visiting Portugal every year. Now things are looking jittery.

Although he appreciates that both countries have a free press, Mr Santana Carlos is concerned at the hostile tone of some of the coverage of the Madeleine investigation, with insults bandied back and forth. (Times On Line)

Boy Racer Beats Police With Go-Kart

Seven police cars were caught up in a Wacky Races-style high-speed chase when they found themselves in pursuit of a boy racer - in a go-kart.

The 18-year-old driver led them on a wild goose chase for three miles through the winding streets of Moenchengladbach, the birthplace of Formula 1 drivers Nick Heidfeld and Heinz-Harald Frentzen.

After a breathless chase he ducked into a vacant garage to lie low but was discovered by police (Sky News)

The Path of Heh

The Path Of Heth is the 15th Path which is the Constituting Intelligence, so called because it constitutes the substance of creation in pure darkness, and it is said of these contemplations; it is that darkness spoken of in scripture, and thick darkness a swaddling band of for it.

The Hebrew letter "heh" means "window," (literally wind-door). The window admits light (knowledge) and air (spirit - prana) into the house of personality. The window also permits outlook, survey, supervision, and control. The window is a frame, focusing attention. It is transparent; this alludes to the mind of the Magus. "Heh," or "ha," is also the Hebrew definite article "the." This defines, locates, particularizes, and characterises.

Sight is the sense function attributed to Key 4. Vision, examination, analysis, vigilance, attention, and investigation are all related. Insight is another form of seeing.

Constituting intelligence is a traditional way to describe this key, as in composing, framing, or authoring. This is the originator, the inventor, the founder, the generator, begetter, architect and builder. The constitution is the law, and order - what we call the "laws of nature" are definitions, and observations. This is ability to see the big picture, the Gestalt of a situation.

The Path of Heh has a special relationship with the art of ritual magic. Like the Paths of Zayin & Cheth, it serves as a connection between the Ruach and the higher centres of the self, but its endpoint is in Chokmah, not in Binah; it connects with the primal source of Force rather than pf Form, and what descends it is thus power rather than perception. In a broader sense, the Path of Heh deals with the whole relationship between power and the self. Heh is the hebrew word for window as has been already discussed, and in the days before effective indoor lighting windows were the most important way of providing light in buildings. Windows are not, however, light sources; they simply allow light from the sun to pass through walls to illuminate the rooms within. The symbolism is exact. Some magical theories identify the source of the magician's power as the magician's own self - in the Kabalah by contrast ... stars, planets and the like are not seen as sources of power but as power through which power passes and the source of the power is identified with the unity of the Supernals in its active form which is Chokmah.

The Tarot correspondent to Heh is The Emperor. 4, the number of the Emperor, is the number of "elements" that are controlled by the 3 "conditions," or "states," shown by Key 3, the Empress. The Empress (3) and the Emperor (4) work together to create 12. Four ram's heads adorn the Emperor's throne, referring to the four sides of a square, the four seasons, the four elements, four compass points, four rivers in Eden, and Aries. The foursquare order of this key traditionally associates it with the Cube of Space.

The Emperor's throne is carved stone; in Hebrew stone is: "aben." "Ab" is "Father," and "ben" means "son of," so the word "aben" joins "father-son." Throne symbolism is deep, and is studied in Malkuth; it is the idea of preparing oneself as the throne for the Holy Light, purifying ourselves to receive the spiritual fire into our material bodies.

The steel armor shows the warlike nature of Mars, as well as the regal red robe, with its Ram's Head shoulder emblem. This is the carrier of the historic values of human experience in law, morals, and custom.

The Emperor holds his arms in a subtle version of the "coagula/solve" position - meaning "coagulate (or join) - and "dissolve." The "coagulation" is a drawing-in of energy. The "solve" is the use of the energy to dissolve, or cut like a laser.

The Emperor differs in that he holds the sphere of the world in his left hand, weighing it down. The golden ankh in his right hand is the sceptre of dominion, also bringing his hand to the level. His position in the above card shows his legs in a suggestion of an inverted alchemical glyph for sulphur, the chemical assigned to the Emperor card, and the number 4 is also a symbol of "Accomplishment of the Great Work-" a successful transformation of lead into gold, and is the position of the legs of Key 12, the Hanged Man.

Here I Go Again

Classic Whitesnake



My preference however is for the original version of "Here I Go Again" which appeared on the Saints An' Sinners album. It is much better than the later version which appeared on the '1987' album.

The 'Dreamtime'

The expression 'Dreamtime' is most often used to refer to the 'time before time', or 'the time of the creation of all things', while 'Dreaming' is often used to refer to an individual's or group's set of beliefs or spirituality.

For instance, an Indigenous Australian might say that they have Kangaroo Dreaming, or Shark Dreaming, or Honey Ant Dreaming, or any combination of Dreamings pertinent to their 'country'. However, many Indigenous Australians also refer to the creation time as 'The Dreaming'.

What is certain is that 'Ancestor Spirits' came to Earth in human and other forms and the land, the plants and animals were given their form as we know them today.

These Spirits also established relationships between groups and individuals, (whether people or animals) and where they traveled across the land, or came to a halt, they created rivers, hills, etc., and there are often stories attached to these places.

Once their work was done, the Ancestor Spirits changed again; into animals or stars or hills or other objects. For Indigenous Australians, the past is still alive and vital today and will remain so into the future. The Ancestor Spirits and their powers have not gone, they are present in the forms into which they changed at the end of the 'Dreamtime' or 'Dreaming', as the stories tell.

The stories have been handed down through the ages and are an integral part of an Indigenous person's 'Dreaming'. (Dreamtime.net)

The Aborigines

Member of any of the 500 groups of indigenous inhabitants of the continent of Australia, who migrated to this region from South Asia about 40,000 years ago. Traditionally hunters and gatherers, they are found throughout the continent and their languages probably belong to more than one linguistic family. They are dark-skinned, with fair hair in childhood and heavy dark beards and body hair in adult males. There are about 228,000 Aborigines in Australia, making up about 1.5% of the population of 16 million.

There were about 300,000 Aborigines living on the continent in small kin-based groups at the time of the first European settlement in 1788. Decimated by diseases new to them and killed by settlers, their number dwindled drastically.

The Australian Aborigines have a rich oral tradition of legends, songs, rituals, and bark and cave paintings concerned with their Dreamtime, a primeval era when humans were first on Earth. Tribal totem ancestors of Australian Aborigines include the eagle-hawk, kangaroo, and snake. About 40% still follow the traditional hunter-gatherer way of life and live mostly in the remote desert areas of Northern Territory, the north of Western Australia, and in northern Queensland. About 12% of Australia is owned by Aborigines and many live on reserves as well as among the general population; (65% of Aborigines live in cities or towns). Others work on cattle stations, and a few have entered the professions and government service.

Augury

Augury is an ancient form of divination. The practice was performed in ancient Rome by priests called augurs. It entailed the interpretation of auspices, that is the movement of birds and/or the movement of animals.

Also included in this form of divination was the interpretation of the significance of thunder and lightening. Those signs on the augur's left or east side denoted a favorable outcome, while those on the right pointed to an ill-omen.

This method of divination was practically unknown in ancient Mesopotamia and Palestine

The Augur (pl: augures) was a priest and official in the classical world, especially ancient Rome. His main role was to interpret the will of the gods by studying the flight of the birds (flying in groups/alone, what noises they make as they fly, direction of flight and what kind of birds they are), known as "taking the auspices." The ceremony and function of the augur was central to any major undertaking in Roman society--public or private--including matters of war, commerce, and religion.

Amongst the most remarkable of natural occurrences must be included many of the phenomena connected with the behaviour of birds. Undoubtedly numerous species of birds are susceptible to atmospheric changes (of an electrical and barometric nature) too slight to be observed by man's unaided senses; thus only is to be explained the phenomenon of migration and also the many other peculiarities in the behaviour of birds whereby approaching changes in the weather may be foretold. Probably, also, this fact has much to do with the extraordinary homing instinct of pigeons.

But, of course, in the days when meteorological science had yet to be born, no such explanation as this could be known. The ancients observed that birds by their migrations or by other peculiarities in their behaviour prognosticated coming changes in the seasons of the year and other changes connected with the weather (such as storms, etc.); they saw, too, in the homing instincts of pigeons an apparent exhibition of intelligence exceeding that of man.

What more natural, then, for them to attribute foresight to birds, and to suppose that all sorts of coming events (other than those of an atmospheric nature) might be foretold by careful observation of their flight and song?

Augury was extensively cultivated by the Etrurians and Romans. It is still used by the natives of Samoa. The Romans had an official college of augurs, the members of which were originally three patricians. About 300 B.C. the number of patrician augurs was increased by one, and five plebeian augurs were added. Later the number was again increased to fifteen. The object of augury was not so much to foretell the future as to indicate what line of action should be followed, in any given circumstances, by the nation.

The augurs were consulted on all matters of importance, and the position of augur was thus one of great consequence. In what appears to be the oldest method, the augur, arrayed in a special costume, and carrying a staff with which to mark out the visible heavens into houses, proceeded to an elevated piece of ground, where a sacrifice was made and a prayer repeated. Then, gazing towards the sky, he waited until a bird appeared. The point in the heavens where it first made its appearance was carefully noted, also the manner and direction of its flight, and the point where it was lost sight of. From these particulars an augury was derived, but, in order to be of effect, it had to be confirmed by a further one.

Is This Maddy Being Taken?

The Sun Headline; says: 'A TINY figure wearing pyjamas lies still and quiet in a man’s arms – in an image thought to show the abduction of Madeleine McCann. Parents Gerry and Kate hope the chilling picture – drawn from an eyewitness account and released last night – will bring them closer to the truth about their daughter.

Swarthy, aged around 35 with black hair curling round his collar, the slim, 5ft 6in suspect was spotted hurrying away from the McCanns’ holiday apartment by Kate and Gerry’s friend Jane Tanner.

On the night of Maddie's disappearance in May, Jane, 36 – checking on her own daughter, who had been sick – thought seeing the man carrying the child was “strange”, but assumed he was the girl’s father. She returned to join the McCanns and other pals at a tapas bar in Praia da Luz, saying nothing.

The horror only dawned later, when her description of the girl’s pink and white pyjamas tallied with what Maddie had worn that night. Jane gave Portuguese cops a detailed description of the man, who had the tot wrapped in a blanket, but no e-fit was ever issued.

In desperation, the McCanns, both 39, called in the FBI-trained British forensic artist – who spent hours with Jane putting together a likeness.

Jane, from Exeter, did not have a clear view of the man’s face, as he turned it away from her. But she did get a good look at his hair and clothing – a maroon shirt, camel coloured trousers and black or brown shoes.

Clarence Mitchell, the McCanns’ spokesman, said: “We hope this will go a long way to proving the independent eyewitness account that she was taken by someone and that the police’s focus on Kate and Gerry as potential suspects is wrong.

“We hope this is another element in the overall amount of information which will lead to them being eliminated from the inquiry in due course. We believe it does show Madeleine in his arms. The description of the pyjamas is accurate enough to believe that is the case. The forensic artist spent a long time with the eyewitness to make sure it was right.”

The Bowstring

'The Bowstring'
Sigilart by Matthew James

Another in the series of sigils inspired by Daily Merlin insights. The sigil coincides with the latest Daily Merlin. 'The spin' keeps spinning ... and on that surface the bowstring bends. Placed on the weaver's web ... all the actors and the players stand on the stage ready for the curtain to be raised and the next act to be enacted. To those who look down all is just a game of moral chess anyway ... the interest of the higher places has not been lost. Nearly six months is a long time in manifest plane terms. Sufficient time for doubt and second thoughts ... for changes of stances ... but for those on the higher realms who are not subject to the same time restraint; nothing has changed in the slight passage of awareness they acknowledge to the superconscious which joins with them. It was only a moment before that they were asked ... and they confirmed that indeed she was safe and alive. Impatiently they provide communion again ... to them barely a second has passed since they were last asked. Now is as then for us on this earth. Nothing has changed. Given that then they informed that she was indeed alive and well ... nothing has changed is what they see ...

Without distraction now. The focus a current media photograph. A gaze now at the situation by way of an overview. My mind opening its doors ... grateful now if the connections come'

Commencing from the tiny shell to the right of 'Suspension' is a major swing or shift in direction. A significant curve in the road ahead. As was anticipated the move now is from death to life ... from speculation Maddy was dead to a path which will lead to growing evidence Maddy is indeed alive.

Tiny shell .. tiny stone of communication. Titbits initially ... a slight trickle in the early stages ... then some bigger communication maybe ... however it appears that this is where we may be at in the current time; there is a stone of frustration and apparent 'ill health' beside the communication stone ... alongside the announcement by the campaign 'spokesman' there is one persona apparently frustrated and annoyed and another who's mental stability is questioned. That is where we are at today is it not? Or is this in truth more of the same to come ..?

Moving to the end of the trail ... there is the black stone of secrecy and concealment ... I assume this relates to 'the biggest secret' of all ... what happened in truth to Maddy? The card of Aeon to its right depicts a character musing in the foreground .. ignorant of the activity in the background. The 'realisation' is to come it appears ...

The 6 of Swords atop the three card pillar ... the momentum and the change ... the swords of Damocles swinging now barely reach the figure now at all ... the direction is very much under the characters control ... in a different direction to the one anticipated by the 5 other swords. Across the channel the figure leads ... note there is a sense now of attention being focussed once more away from where the true investigation is. Eyes of the character of the Aeon are on a horizon different to where all the commotion is taking place. Thus watch ... where the media attention causes its usual loud and over-the-top commotion ... know that is not where the truth really is at. The truth is somewhere else ... known by those personalities who are seen to be apparently disinterested by all the carnival frenzy!

The Page of Swords indicates a figure climbing out of the cleft stick it found itself in. A bird is seen to rise out of the valley below ... its plight catching the attention of the climbing bearer of the sword.

To the left and a pillar denoting someone who is feeling secluded ... and isolated from the other side of the family depicted by the right hand pillar. Left out and locked out. Immersed in the emotions and not privy to the information which the other side has to hand. Feeling the distance and feeling that something is not what it seems. But knowing that the other side ... that other pillar cannot be entirely trusted. Aware that the 'goalposts' have shifted ... apparently unable to cope ... very protective of her other two young children who are still very reliant on her. Using her powers of reason and rational thinking she appears to be able to understand what it is that is going on. The Two of Cups indicates the coming together of two minds somehow ... a meeting with someone she can most truly trust ... a friend and a confidant ... a journey perhaps to somewhere like Southport or even on the Wirral (Bromborough perhaps?). There appears much to be gained from the sharing of an afternoon 'high tea' though the urge could be for something stronger ... there is a relevant meeting here it seems.

The central image of 'Art' ... the coming together somehow of the two opposing sides ... the time in the future when after a while of their being two parallel storylines ... there can only be one from thereon. There is a definite 'anvil' of control placed deep. Suggestions and impressions. Keywords ... called something else but just as ominous as 'mind control'. A sense that the Charioteer is behind all this subterfuge ... all the deceptions. Deliberately to hide 'the man with the torch' ... the man who bore the arrows ... the directives which led to 'the paths of the arrows' along which Maddy was taken during her time of concealment. There has been more than one locality in which to hide her. Those behind her disappearance appear to have many 'mansions' in which to conceal her ... plus a team of clever intelligence to hide the trail within. The man with the torch appears to be he who Maddy was handed to ... who took Maddy to concealed safety that night ... there is a clear screen wall that hides the events of that night. A clever decoy permitting this man plenty of time to get her away from the place ... before ever the alarm was raised ... the pressure appears somewhere between the two pillars to somehow keep this decoy firmly in place .... it is perhaps better then that the left pillar is ignorant perhaps of this reality .,.. but perhaps becoming mindful that certain individuals in the right pillar have more understanding of this decoy and the mechanisms behind Maddy's disappearance ... than they let on. It seems someone of the left pillar has connections which could unearth it all ... if it ever came to light.
