A Word on 'The Watchers'

The history inside the Bible, in Genesis, tells how the sons of the Gods, (The Anunnaki), seduced the daughters of humans on the Earth, and they produced a rare race of people known as the “Nephilim”.

The “Nephilim” taught man about agriculture, cuneiform writing, mathematics, sacred geometry, war, astrology, and occult magic.

"Nor is it to be thought that man is either the oldest or the last of earth's masters, or that the common bulk of life and substance walks alone." - The Necronomicon

"We convoke the Nephilim and they come to us, strangers with the eyes of men..." -- The Coming of the Watchers.

The mysterious passage quoted above, one of the Old Testament's most evocative and tantalizing, shines out of the dust of Genesis. It can probably be taken as an attempt by the Bible's authors to explain, and legitimize, the countless tales of gods and heroic demigods which far pre-dated the Scriptures in the ancient Near East and around the world. These mighty beings, Genesis would have us believe, have no connection with older, rival gods and goddesses; they are descended from the One God, fathered by his angels on human women.The Bible, however, has seen many changes in its few centuries, and many translations throw different lights on the same material. The word given as "giants" in most modern versions is not always so. In several, notably the New English Bible, it is rendered in the original Hebrew: “Nephilim”.

Translation and reinterpretation have not been the only causes of change in the Bible. A wide body of material which was originally accepted as canonical was excised by the Councils of 633 and 637 CE for various reasons, mostly censorious. (For example, the Council banished the Infancy Gospels, wherein a cruelly arrogant Christ Child kills several innocent townspeople who merely got in his way.)

Much of this material survives under the collective name of Apocrypha - from the Greek apokryphos, "hidden secret" - under which name it was commonly included as an appendix in Bibles up to about the year 1600. We are fortunate that it does, as it is not only fascinating work of great antiquity but reflects traditions far older than itself. It is within the Apocrypha, notably the two Books of Enoch (not to be confused with the Liber Logaeth of Dr. John Dee, sometimes called by that name, about which more later) and the Book of Jubilees, that we find the full legend of the “Watchers” and the “Nephilim”, banished by fearful and bigoted Church Fathers from the Bible in use today. The Apocryphal books tell us this: Originally the angels, or Sons of God, all surveyed the world and its beings from on high, and among them were those called the “Igigi” (Grigori) or “Watchers”.

"The Watchers" can be translated with several shades of meaning, and depending on the translator means "observers" or "sentinels, sleepless ones"; whether they are vigilant or simply curious, they watch. Some texts say they were tempted by the beauty of human women ("the Sons of God saw the daughters of men, that they were fair..."), while others grant them a compassionate Promethean urge to guide and teach or a touching desire for family and companionship; There were, we're told, no female Watchers.

Whatever their motive, two hundred of the Watchers, led by the great angel Semjaza-Azazel, (Anu), defied divine direction, descended to Earth and took a personal hand in humankind's creation and education.

Crafts and sciences, arts and letters, and the many skills of magic - all of which are described as "secrets...made in heaven", intended only for the Celestials to know - were shared with our distant ancestors."

And Azazel taught men to make swords and daggers and shields and breastplates...bracelets, and ornaments, mining and the metals of the earth, and the art of making up the eyes and beautifying the eyelids (angels invent eye shadow). (Read More ...)

'Euthanasia by the back door': How doctors give 2,500 patients drugs to accelerate their death every year

Some 2,500 patients a year are given drugs to accelerate their death in what critics claim is euthanasia by the back door. A survey has found that the lives of one in 200 terminally-ill patients are ended in this way. Of that number, at least 10 per cent die up to a week earlier than they would have.

More than 80,000 are subjected to deep sedation, where they slip into a drug-induced coma before dying. Supporters of assisted dying warned of a 'slippery slope' of patients being helped to die even though it is illegal. They called for the practice to be legalised to ensure the deaths are regulated.

However, the poll of 4,000 doctors found that only 34 per cent would support a change in the law proposed by former health secretary Patricia Hewitt last week. The survey was carried out by Clive Seale from the Centre for Health Sciences at London's Queen Mary University, and published in the journal palliative Medicine.
Professor Seale said: 'This research shows stark differences between public opinion and that of doctors. Elsewhere in the world, opposition among doctors has been a major factor in preventing the legalisation of euthanasia or physician-assisted suicide.

'The Dutch medical association in the late 1980s and 90s was moving towards the view that euthanasia was an acceptable way of dealing with certain forms of suffering. Dutch medical opinion was influential with the government.' He added: 'Cases of euthanasia in the UK are very rare. Instead, end of life treatment decisions are often taken with input from patients and family, and it is rare for such decisions to have shortened life by more than a day.'

Soapbox Comment: Having sadly gone through the experience of my late Mother deteriorating with Terminal Cancer, I was relieved for her sake (and the family's sake too) that her dose of painkillers were gradually increased, so in the end she did not feel the terrible pain she would have done without them. I was so grateful to the Hospice for the way she was looked after ... and also grateful she slipped away in her coma sleep without any suffering ...

A Word From Beyond?

"There seems to be a Melissa around her who sits on a bench and watches the world. Dreamy eyed ... the child has her vision set firmly on home. Her real home and not the home she has had in recent months. The year (and months) haven't changed her, she still remembers the faces, the smells and the sights which she knows is her real home. Doubtless a family has been in care of her, from time to time, keeping her out of sight ... hidden from all those prying eyes who appear to have known the score right from the very start."

A Word on 'Porcupine Magic'

The Porcupine is generally a solitary creature, preferring to wander about at night, on its own, foraging for food in the woods. The only time they den with others of their kind is in the cold winter months when it is practical for them to do so.

They have very poor vision, but possess excellent hearing and a keen sense of smell. Their quills are actually very sharp, stiff hairs and they cover much of their body, including their tails. A fully mature Porcupine will have in excess of 30,000 quills on their body. They are capable of swinging their tails quickly in a predator’s direction covering it with the sharp, and painful quills. The predator becomes so startled and occupied with the task of removing them that the Porcupine usually slips away unharmed and un-pursued.

The Porcupine possesses many animal virtues that are powerful and valuable and which any person would be wise to emulate or divine. One who has the power of the Porcupine will see enhanced solidarity, wonder and joy, allowing one the ability to use childlike qualities in their everyday activities.

The Porcupine has very powerful medicine: that of faith and trust. You can move mountains with these powers. A Porcupine totem reminds you not to get caught in the chaos of the world, where fear, greed and suffering are commonplace.

Its medicine is relief from the seriousness of life. Open your heart to those things that gave you joy as a child; remember fantasy and imagination and bring into your life again.

If a Porcupine is your totem you might be overly sensitive to criticism from othersor overly critical of others. Perhaps you are allowing barbs from long ago to still effect your life now. Porcupine people often crave and overindulge in salt intake. Beware of this and watch your intake. The Porcupine is a good natured animal and are known to have a sweet childlike disposition. They carry their defense around with them in the form of sharp quills that cover their bodies. The quills do not shoot or fly from the Porcupine, but rather they release themselves only when the animal is touched and feels threatened by something or someone. The Porcupine has few natural enemies. This unassuming little creature has much to teach humans about the joyful animal spirit.

Interesting Book Quote

Taken from 'Otherland - Vol III 'Mountain Of Black Glass' by Tad Williams:

'You said we could not use the device to destroy the system any more than a key could bring down a house. But a key can bring down a house. It unlocks the door, and then others can come in, either those who will rob and ruin the house or those who will see what has been hidden there and can overcome it.'

Fresh Appeal For Help

Madeleine McCann's parents have launched a new appeal for information about their daughter almost two years after she went missing in Portugal.

The appeal focuses on the area in the Algarve where the family were staying at the time of the youngster's disappearance. About 10,000 leaflets will be handed out and posted through letterboxes in Praia da Luz, Lagos and Burgau over the next fortnight. The campaign will be backed up with billboards and advertising on three buses and a van. Family spokesman Clarence Mitchell said the appeal was "very localised" with the aim of collecting the vital clue that could lead to Madeleine being found. The official Find Madeleine Fund said in a statement: "At the time of Madeleine's disappearance the emphasis was placed more on international appeals. "It has been recognised that the local Portuguese residents of Praia da Luz and the surrounding areas have never been properly asked about information they may have to give. "The purpose of the current campaign is to do just that - ask the local Portuguese residents for information to help to find Madeleine." (Sky News)

North Pole .... satellite image?

Is this satellite image of the North Pole the real thing or a hoax?

It appears to suggest there is some kind of 'northern gate' at the top of the Earth ... which permits access to the inside of the planet.

It appears to support the Hollow Earth theories ... or does it? If the image is real, surely there is some other rational explanation for this imagery?

It can be found quite openly and easily via Google with the search 'north pole aerial view'. So that in itself suggest hoax maybe? NASA are apparently shocked with the size of the hole at the northern end of the planet? There is a correspondent hole at the South Pole?

It sounds like a few lines out of a science fiction magazine ... but just imagine if it is true and this image IS the real McCoy. There is so much image tampering and disinformation out there these days it is really hard to know what is truth and what is fiction. This seems too far fetched to be taken seriously ... but the ancient legends do tell of Agharti ... but then it cannot be true, can it?

The Hollow Earth - Fact or Fiction?

If the Earth is hollow, where does all that magma spewing out of all those volcanoes come from? Somebody must have a half-convincing answer to that question, presumably that handful of people who still believe the Earth is an empty shell. The idea seems quite ludicrous now, but in pre-scientific times, it at least appeared to make sense: if Heaven was a place in the skies above, where else would Hell be than somewhere deep below our feet?

Harder to understand is why the idea survived several centuries of scientific progress, including the powerful notion of nature’s horror vacui. In a 1692 scientific paper, Edmund Halley – yes, he of comet fame – put forth the idea that Earth consists of a shell about 800 km thick, and of two inner concentric shells and an innermost core with about the same diameter as the planet Mars.

Halley did have scientific grounds for his rather bizarre thought-construct. It tried to explain why compass readings could be so anomalous: each of the inner spheres had their own magnetic poles and rotated at differing speeds. To compound his error, Halley proposed that the inner spheres might be inhabited and that the inner atmosphere was made up of luminous gases that, when escaping outward, cause the Aurora borealis.

Later theorists came up with variations to Halley’s model. In the seventeenth century, Leonhard Euler proposed a single-shell hollow Earth with a small sun (1.000 km across) at the centre, providing light and warmth for an inner-Earth civilisation. Others proposed two inner suns, and even named them: Pluto and Proserpine.

In the early eighteenth century, American John Cleves Symmes Jr supplemented the theory with the suggestion of ‘blowholes’: openings about 2.300 km across at both poles. Symes apparently was utterly convinced by his own theories: he campaigned for an expedition to the North Pole. The intervention of president Andrew Jackson was needed – to stop it, that is.

Quite unbelievably, the hollow Earth idea persisted into the twentieth century, when the study of plate tectonics and the like made it obvious that the Earth couldn’t be hollow. Yet hollow Earth books and theories multiplied, many based on Symmes’ work. In 1913, Marshall Gardner wrote A Journey to the Earth’s Interior, even built a working model of his hollow Earth – and patented it.

More recent theories suggest a hollow Earth inhabited by the creatures that fly UFOs across our skies, or by dwarves, dragons, other ‘lost races’ or ‘ascended masters’ of esoteric wisdom. Some proposed new ‘blowholes’ are located in Mount Shasta (California), Mammoth Cave (Kentucky), the Mato Grosso (Brazil), Mount Epomeo (Italy) and the pyramid of Giza (Egypt).

A Great Teacher

The journey of water as it flows upon the earth can be a mirror of our own paths through life. Water begins its residence on earth as it falls from the sky or melts from ice and streams down a mountain into a tributary or stream. In the same way, we come into the world and begin our lives on earth.

Like a river that flows within the confines of its banks, we are born with certain defining characteristics that govern our identity. We are born in a specific time and place, within a specific family, and with certain gifts and challenges. Within these parameters, we move through life, encountering many twists, turns, and obstacles along the way just as a river flows.

Water is a great teacher that shows us how to move through the world with grace, ease, determination, and humility. When a river breaks at a waterfall, it gains energy and moves on, as we encounter our own waterfalls, we may fall hard but we always keep moving on. Water can inspire us to not become rigid with fear or cling to what’s familiar. Water is brave and does not waste time clinging to its past, but flows onward without looking back. At the same time, when there is a hole to be filled, water does not run away from it in fear of the dark; instead, water humbly and bravely fills the empty space. In the same way, we can face the dark moments of our life rather than run away from them.

Eventually, a river will empty into the sea. Water does not hold back from joining with a larger body, nor does it fear a loss of identity or control. It gracefully and humbly tumbles into the vastness by contributing its energy and merging without resistance. Each time we move beyond our individual egos to become part of something bigger, we can try our best to follow the lead of the river.

A Word on 'The Black Nobility'

These people earned the title of "Black" nobility from their ruthless lack of scruple. They employed murder, rape, kidnapping, assassination, robbery, and all manner of deceit on a grand scale, brooking no opposition to attaining their objectives. These all have immense wealth. And money is power.

The most powerful of the Black Nobility families are located in Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Britain, Holland and Greece in that order. Their roots may be traced back to the Venetian oligarchs, who are of Khazar extraction, and married into these royal houses in the early part of the twelfth century. (Following a great Khazar victory over the Arabs, the future Emperor, Constantine V, married a Khazar princess and their son became Emperor Leo IV, also known as "Leo the Khazar". The Medecci popes, and Pius XII (Eugenio Pacelli) were Khazars, as is the present Pope, John Paul II. Not all Black Nobility are royal houses, and many of the royal families no longer have kingdoms. According to researcher and author Dr. John Coleman, a "Committee of 300" was established early in the eighteenth century, "although it did not take on its present form until around 1897", (when the China opium trade was legalised)

Documentary proof as to the existence of the Committee of 300 is not forthcoming, and it may be no more than a convenient phrase to describe certain key players. Socialist politician and financial adviser to the Rothschilds, Walter Rathenau, writing in the Wiener Press (24 December, 1921) said, "Only 300 men, each of whom knows all others govern the fate of Europe. They select their successors from their own entourage. These men have the means in their hands of putting an end to the form of State which they find unreasonable." Exactly six months after publication, Rathenau was assassinated.

Most if not all the crowned and uncrowned heads of these dynasties enjoy huge incomes from ground rents. All favor Global 2000 Report to the President that's calculated to end all industrial progress, and by famine, disease and wars, eliminate the excess population industry supports. All oppose nuclear power that can produce clean cheap electricity, the key to economic development and prosperity in the Third World. They ardently desire a return to the feudal system where they will once again be absolute rulers.

In 1815 the Jesuits and their Freemason allies among the crowned heads of Europe held the Congress of Vienna, whereby Swiss neutrality (already sanctioned by the Peace of Westphalia in 1648) was forever guaranteed; and no matter how many wars are provoked in which the common man has to do the fighting, the money of the Nobility in Switzerland should always be free from plunder. It's part of Rothschild's meticulous long-range planning, and why Switzerland exists to this day. But that doesn't mean to say your money would be safe. Some US$280 billion p.a. in flight capital and drug money flows into the Swiss accounts of the Black Nobility.

The place of Freemasonry in the power structure of the Elites is quite evident as they carried through Adam Weishaupt's conspiracy to avenge the Jesuits after their abolition in 1773 by short-lived Pope Clement XIV as "immoral and a menace to the Church and the Faith". By launching the French Revolution and directing Napoleon's conquest of Catholic Europe, and by revolts against the church in Mexico and Latin America, they cut-off Vatican income.

Nathan Rothschild's financing of Britain resulted in the defeat of Rome's enemy Napoleon, (as well as being the source of his wealth and influence). Since Gregory XVI conferred a Papal decoration on Kalman Rothschild for loaning the Vatican five million pounds in a period of difficulty, the Rothschilds have been the fiscal agents of the Vatican. With Vatican interests at heart, the Rothschilds extended their financial and political dominion in the United States. The Vatican's interest in the US was clearly revealed in the secret 1822 Treaty of Verona between Austria, France, Prussia, and Russia whereby the Jesuit Order pledged itself as the price of reinstatement to destroy "the works of Satan" it had established in setting-up, by revolution, representative governments such as the republics and "democracies" of France and the USA, replacing them with the only form of government approved by the church, rule by "divine right", as declared by the Vatican (Daniel 2:42-43; Revelation 17:12-13).

The Committee of 300 now call themselves World Government Founders for the NWO. A reference no doubt to their hereditary claim to the "Divine Right of Kings". It is imperative that we realize that privately, the Black Nobility refuse to ever recognize any government other than their own inherited and divine right to rule. They believe the United States still belongs to England. And work diligently behind the scenes to cause conditions whereby they might regain their crowns. Every royal and so-called noble dynasty past and present of Europe have seats on the Committee of 300, most often by nominees. There are just too many of these "royal" families for them each to have representatives on the Committee of 300. Precedence is determined by rank: first royal family members, then dukes, earls, marquises and lords, then finally "commoners", who usually get the title of "Sir". (Source: Illuminati News)

Archangel Raduriel

Archangel Raduriel (Radueriel, Radweriel, Vretil), serves as an Archangel of the Third Ray of Harmonics Restoration; as well as, the Cosmic Benefactor Archangel Chieftain of the Environment Omniangels.

Archangel Raduriel comes to this local universe after many millenium of distinguished service as an Archangel in another local universe that has always been aligned with Divine Will, Divine Harmony, Divine Authority, Divine Love, Divine Light, and Divine Power.

Archangel Raduriel was known for awhile by her birth name from another local universe that of Archangel Vretil. Now that Cosmic Archangels are being distinguished from this local universe's Archangels (who have a seven letter name), by using an eight letter name, she has decided to be known by one of her former appellations in this local universe.

As a higher heavens realms Adjudication Registrar, Archangel Raduriel (Radweriel) was a Cosmic Chronicles Recording Angel who was notably gifted with a powerful bounty of co-creative poetic wisdom. She was also the Mentoring Counsel angel of the poetry and song muses, as well as, the celestial choral singers.

Archangel Raduriel was the Chief of the Phoenixes angelic order. The Phoenixes attend the Earth as it takes its chariot ride around the sun, continually greeting the rising sun with melodious, sweetly sounding songs, as elemental sunshine radiance blesses the landscape in different planetary locales.

As Vretil, she was considered the wisest and most knowledgeable of the Archangels, so the heavenly spheres treasury of sacred books, scrolls, treatises was entrusted to her safekeeping.

Referred to in the lore of Ezra and 2 Enoch, Vretil was depicted as a knowledgeable heavenly spheres scribe. Enoch wrote down what she revealed to him in many books over the course of many days. Archangel Raduriel serves as the Cosmic Benefactor Archangel for the Environment Omniangels and is Co-Chieftain Mentor of Archangel Zadkiel.

As an Archangel Raduriel brings vigilant purity, friendly divinity, and pristine storytelling to the Third Ray of Harmonics Restoration.

She watches and inspires seekers of sagacious epics with poetic mastery, as they proceed, step by step, from solo happenstance singularity to choral concurrent unanimity... (Source: archangelswisdom)

A Growing Orgonite 'Clan'

.... a.k.a 'my current creative pursuit' in these 'difficult times'. Having just learnt the art of Orgonite-making, I am now witnessing a growing group of orgone structures throughout the house!

At the same time, subtle changes have been occurring in our home environment. Positive improvements. My sciatica which has been troubling me constantly for the last 7 years has eased to a point I forget my painkillers and most days now I have cut my dose to almost zilch.

Kristine has been a light sleeper for the last few years. She now sleeps through most of the night ...

Minor improvements in niggly situations around us have been noticed. The house environment feels much lighter and energetic. There has been a good response from our new found friends to the presence of our orgonites in their own environments ...

The only drawback I've noticed is the need to go 'tip crawling' for moulds ... the smell of the resin in the garage ... !!

Passive Aggressive Behaviour

If you’ve ever found yourself repressing your anger and behaving in other ways to get your point across, you may be someone who is adept at engaging in passive-aggressive behavior. Although passive-aggressive behavior is recognized as a psychological disorder, it also describes the behaviour that many people use to cope with confrontational situations. Such behavior has the outward appearance of being peaceful, yet it is really an attempt to express oneself in seemingly passive ways—usually without accepting responsibility for doing so.

For example, someone who doesn’t want to attend an event with a partner might engage in behavior that causes them to be late or miss the event without ever admitting to their partner that they never wanted to go to the function at all. Procrastination, inefficiency, stubbornness, and sullenness are some of the many ways that anger can be expressed indirectly. It is important not to judge ourselves when we engage in passive-aggressive behaviour. You may want to consider that you are not owning your feelings or your expression by indirectly expressing yourself. Perhaps you are judging your feelings and needs as wrong—which is why you are expressing yourself indirectly. You also may be worried that others will judge you for feeling the way that you do. Remember that anger and every other emotion are never good or bad. They can, however, become toxic of you don’t express them in healthy and proactive ways. When we express ourselves directly, we are more likely to be heard by the other person. It also becomes easier for us to ask for and get what we want. Once we learn to be honest with ourselves about our feelings, we can begin to directly express ourselves to others. By learning to express ourselves directly, we prevent misunderstandings, hurt feelings, and resentment from cropping up in our relationships. We also learn to communicate with others in healthy and productive ways. It is never too late to start working on ourselves and our behaviors, just take it one day at a time.

Mystic Insights - an RV Journey

Remote Viewing 'Experiment'

Initially an unknown location. Merely a sequence of digits provided, a deep breath and a familiar sense of bilocation.

First comes a feeling of something hidden, and a place of great secrecy. Floating towards a destination then. A lake. A pier.

A cluster of buildings around then a complex with many roads. This feels like many miles away from a nearest town, but there are hundreds and hundreds of people here.

Very high tech feel to this place.

A symbol then like a bottle with three small black squares and a bigger square (symbol to the right) is sensed on the ground. Tall white buildings open to the sky and much activity below the ground? Wait, the place as long tall structures (antenna) and there seems much in the way of clutter on the ground? Seen like piles of waste perhaps? There is a feeling of concealment here.

Many presences seem to watch things leave from here? Sitting close by observing the proceedings. So strange, not all the observers seem human?? This place is weird and hard to comprehend. I cannot make sense of the situation. Who is in control here?

There is construction work being undertaken. Strange sights and strange phenomenon? Have I lost it here ...?? What is this place? There are space crafts here arriving and leaving ...???

After the return to this awareness, I was shown the piece of paper with the location matching the sequence of numbers .... Area 51.

Thousands to get lessons in how to spot terrorists as Smith warns of random attacks

Sixty thousand British civilians are being trained by the Home Office to spot terrorists, Gordon Brown has revealed. Huge numbers of staff on rail networks, at shops, public buildings and major sports venues have been picked out by MI5 and the police for the special training - teaching them to watch for 'suspicious behaviour' and respond swiftly to an atrocity.

The ambitious scheme was announced as the Home Secretary prepared to publish what she claimed would be the Government's most detailed counter-terrorism strategy document to date. The plans are likely to spark questions over the effectiveness of such a huge army of amateur and lightly-trained 'terrorist watchers', including concerns that they will swamp the police and security service and inflame community relations with spurious alerts singling out law-abiding British Muslims.

The Home Office would not provide any details of their training on security grounds, but said it centred on increased vigilance and improved response to terrorist attacks, including evacuation and crowd control procedures. Officials said MI5 had helped draw up the training course. Gordon Brown, writing in a Sunday newspaper said: 'Tens of thousands of men and women throughout Britain - from security guards to store managers - have now been trained and equipped to deal with an incident and know what to watch for as people go about their daily business in crowded places such as stations, airports, shopping centres and sports grounds.'

MoD 'informed ministers' about UFO sighting over Scotland

Photographs taken of a UFO hovering next to an RAF jet over Scotland were treated very seriously by military investigators, newly-released Ministry of Defence files showed today. Witnesses saw the mysterious large diamond-shaped object hanging in the air for about 10 minutes before it ascended vertically at high speed.

Military experts concluded the aircraft was a Harrier, but could not identify the UFO despite apparently commissioning detailed line drawings of it

Fearing there could be significant media interest, the MoD took the unusual step of briefing ministers about the sighting. The incident also discloses that British military intelligence officers tasked with investigating UFO reports took a close interest in claims the US was developing a top secret spy-plane.

The sighting is included in military UFO documents made available online today by the National Archives. (Source: Daily Mail)

Paul Scholes and Wayne Rooney were sent off as Manchester United's title hopes took another shock blow at Fulham. Scholes saw red after 18 minutes for handling Bobby Zamora's header, Danny Murphy dispatching the penalty.

And as United pressed for a second-half equaliser, Zoltan Gera struck on the break with a superb control and finish. Seconds later, Rooney threw the ball away in frustration to earn a second booking on a miserable day for United, whose lead could be cut to one point.

It was a historic result for Fulham, as it was for United - although not one they will look back on with any fondness. Fulham had not beaten United at home in 45 years, while the visitors, beaten by Liverpool last weekend, had not lost successive league games since 2005.

Lights Down Under UPDATE

"Lights Down Under" is currently under 're-design' ... much has changed since it was originally conceived. It has been a long time in getting off the drawing board, I know, and I apologise for this. There has been a change in personnel behind the scenes ... new faces and new contacts now connected with who are more linked to what the original design concept of 'Lights Down Under' was intended ...

So please, please, please bear with us as Lights Down Under MK1 is recreated ... originally it was to be a web site in itself, but due to the financial squeeze this has been postponed. Instead its genesis will be another Sister blog to A Light In The Darkness, until it is financially affordable to launch it as a web site ...

Lights Down Under is planned to include e-mail readings, live phone and Skype readings ... by Matthew James and another Clairvoyant, who will be announced at a later date when the sister blog is finally launched (and possibly a third who doesn't know it yet) ...

'Lights On The Road' tour is currently being planned ... so please watch this space for more info!

Totem Animals ...

A number of personal totem animals 'made themselves' known today at Gold Creek during the Autumn Equinox Festival which I was participating in ...

A lone Magpie made its presence known to me almost immediately as I was setting up the stall.

An orange and brown Butterfly flitted around the general area of my Stall.

A Wren was flitting in and out of the undergrowth in front of where I was sitting.

A large Lizard was in the undergrowth to the right of where I was seated at the wooden Gazebo ... it then proceeded to 'hide itself' underneath the wooden rafters of the Gazebo.

A White tail spider appeared on one of the wooden struts of the Gazebo, before scurrying out of sight. A moment or two later I observed the spider scurrying into our carry bag ... before proceeding to scurry out of the bag and then out of sight moments later ...

Porto in the Quarter Finals

Reacting to the match-up with Porto, United boss Sir Alex Ferguson said: "This is a good draw for us. We've met Porto before and obviously we respect any Portuguese team.

"We have had a huge Portuguese influence in the club, firstly with Carlos Queiroz but now with Cristiano (Ronaldo) and Nani, so we understand Portuguese football." United will play the second leg in Porto but Ferguson insists that should not be a problem. "You sometimes wonder if being at home first is a good or a bad thing, but I think in this modern-day competition there is no indication of what is better," said the Scot.

"The only thing you hope is that you don't lose a goal in the home tie. We are happy with the draw and we are looking forward to the next round." And, referring to the 2004 defeat to Porto, United defender Rio Ferdinand added: "We have a bit of unfinished business with them.

"It's a decent draw for us. Emotionally and physically it's perhaps more draining with playing another English side. We know that from playing Chelsea in the final. (Source: BBC Sport)

Today's Comment (or 'On The Soapbox')

Every cloud has a silver lining. Life will never be the same

It's a second 'venue' in a week tomorrow. The third day of being back at the front line so to speak ... out of retirement at last. Being the conduit once more between one world and the next.

Had three instances of good feedback too this week so far ...

I also undertook a telephone 'interview' successfully today, and I'm commencing a new venture on Monday with regard to phones both metophorically and physically.

Been a good response for the Finding Your Potential workshops. Numbers will be very limited by the middle of the week I imagine.

Strange how in the course of a week so much has changed. New friends and acquintances are coming out of the woodwork ... and I have the chance to don the 'druid gown' so to speak tomorrow ... as the venue is being run by a practising Druid. Been a long time since I can be publically Druidic again. It is a personal and silent path I walk as a druid. A wander of solitude through the valley scape of the muses so to speak. My arts I cherish as do my connections and my connections to the other realms ...

It is becoming a magical experience this sojourn at this time. Very different to a few weeks back when it was looking unlikely I would be working as a mystic again.

My mind is still focussed on Madeleine. I have not forgotten her in all of this illumination. If anything, the path I now walk should give me more time to connect with her living and breathing consciousness. God bless her and her family. They have suffered so much at the hand of 'emotional terrorists' ... cruelly picking on them because of who and what they are; what Madeleine represents ... in my opinion anyway ...

The Shining Star still endures, this I feel strongly still. In safe hands she lives and breathes. A strong and resilient girl. A brave family to cope with the shite that has been dropped on them. Okay, yes, Gerry has influence ... he has strong connections in many quarters, but its no excuse to single out him and his family for such a cruel charade. They were desperate for a child and I feel it was not their fault they unwittingly opened a 'trap door' into the seedy underworld. It was not their fault their connections stumbled upon the gutter!

More DMI's are planned. I can focus more these days ... I intend to construct a special Orgonite for Madeleine and her family in the coming weeks. A special little space cleanser with which I can remote view and dedicate some moments to their situation. They need healing and strength. They need some kind of barrier between them and the terrible minds which bated them in the recent past. They deserve a time of healing and recuperation in truth ...

Anyway, another cycle of controversy arrived in my lap in recent days. Strange images which have been added to the blog from time to time. Physical confirmations of remote viewings I'd undertaken of a distant place I'd been doing over the last few decades. Images of landscapes I was very familiar with in truth. It's Pandora's Box and it's the potato which is slightly too hot to hold ... but it was landed on my lap by the other realms and I have to proceed with it ... like modelling clay it will be shaped in to a usuable form gulp!

It's a busy day tomorrow. It's getting late. My Orgonite creations are safely packed ready for tomorrow ... as are my divination tools ... my runes, tarot, crystals ... etc ... it will be a busy day in more ways than one ...

I am currently toying with the idea of resuming distance readings ... readings by e-mail, telephone, Skype etc ... and I may well add an advertisement here in the near future. I'm just concerned about the wolves and the lions who might ridicule me for this direction. But then again, I have been a professional mystic for umpteen years prior to A Light In The Darkness ... and it is my pathway too ... I'm a servant of the light and my role and spiritual profession is to help troubled souls ... so that is what I am doing once more ...

Maple Tree Symbolism

Maple tree symbolism includes balance, promise and practicality. Maples are important as source of syrup and wood. Dried wood is often used for the smoking of food. They are also cultivated as ornamental plants and are beneficial for tourism in the autumn.

The Deep-Rooted Symbolism of Trees

Forests have always had deep-rooted symbolic meaning in virtually every culture on earth. Forests are the abode of the nature spirits. Forests are a refuge from danger as well as a source of dangerous wild animals. Forests are mysterious and constantly changing.

The symbolism associated with trees and forests contains multiple mythic qualities. The deep-rooted symbolism of trees is apparent in common metaphors such as the Tree of Life and our ancestral heritage depicted in family trees.

In Vedic philosophy, the symbolism of wood claims this element as the primal material of the universe. Christian art symbolism depicts Christ as the cosmic carpenter and His ultimate sacrifice is represented by the symbolism of a wooden cross. The Jewish depiction of the Kabbalah is in the form of a modified tree and explains the mystical teachings of Judaism.

Specific trees also have their own symbolic meanings. For example, the oak is the mightiest of trees and symbolizes strength and courage. The ancient Romans thought oak trees attracted lightening and thereby connected the oak tree to the sky god, Jupiter and his wife, Juno, the goddess of marriage. Thus, the oak is a symbol of conjugal fidelity and fulfillment. The oak tree was regarded by Socrates as an oracle tree. The Druids likewise ate acorns in preparation for prophesying. In addition, the Druids believed the leaves of the oak tree had the power to heal and renew strength. (Source: livingartsoriginals)

A close encounter of the blurred kind: Tourist snaps 'UFO' cloud

Swooping high over snow-capped peaks against a stunning sky of blue, it looks for all the world like an invading alien saucer. But there's no need to run for cover or call up Mulder and Scully just yet. For the meteorologists, of course, have a more prosaic explanation. It turns out the 'saucer' is nothing more than Altocumulus Lenticularis --a rare lens-shaped cloud that forms when moist air flows over mountains.

Diane Bowers took the photograph while on holiday at the Sierra Nevada mountain range in Spain. Mother-of-two Mrs Bowers, 45, said: 'I couldn't believe my eyes when I spotted this cloud. The sky was so clear, just a pure blue, apart from this one cloud that looked just like a flying saucer. It was one of those moments that I will never forget.'


The photo now takes pride of place in Mrs Bowers's living room at her home in Peterhead, Aberdeenshire.

Buddhist Inspiration for the day

One should follow a man of wisdom who rebukes one for one's faults, as one would follow a guide to some buried treasure. To one who follows such a wise man, it will be an advantage and not a disadvantage --- Dhammapada 76

Remembering Who We Are

Most of us are familiar with the idea that we are not human beings having spiritual experiences; instead, we are spiritual beings having human experiences. We hear this and even though we may experience a resounding yes in our bodies, we may not take the time to really acknowledge the truth of these statements. Integrating this idea into how we view ourselves can broaden our sense of who we are and help us appreciate ourselves as brave spirits on an important mission to learn and grow here on earth.

As spiritual beings, we are visitors in this physical realm. The fact that we came here and lost all memory of what happened to us before we were born is one of the many reasons that it takes so much courage for a soul to incarnate on earth. This is why spiritual inquiry so often feels like a remembering—because it is. Remembering that we are spiritual beings is part of the work that we are here on earth to do. When we operate from a place of remembering, we tap into the wisdom that our spirit accumulated even before we stepped into this lifetime. Remembering who we are can give us the patience to persevere when we become overwhelmed or frustrated. It can give us the courage to work through the most daunting challenges and help us trust the ancient wisdom we carry that is offered to us by our intuition. We have chosen to be on earth because there is something we want to learn that can only happen by inhabiting a body. Some of us are here to repay a debt, learn about love, or teach forgiveness. Most of us are here for a combination of reasons, we carry this information in our souls, all we have to do is remember. As you go through your journey, try not to forget how brave you are, being here now. Honour yourself.
