Florida Entanglement … Part 2

Concentrations of markers imply entanglement vigor: … the greater the concentration, the stronger the network. Established patterns imply coherency. Florida's markers - sound sequence and word duplication - are strong and correlative.

The A-Lee Sequence
Caylee … Immokalee … Haleigh. Saying the words out loud gave me shivers. The visual similarity between Caylee and Immokalee reinforced my discomfort.

Confession: … when I began collecting data, my bias was that I expected to verify a female-exclusive entanglement. My myopia! My bad!

In quantum situations, questions shape answers. Ask if light is a particle, for example, and you'll get an affirmative reply. Ask if light is a wave and you'll receive equal validation for that. Entanglements exhibit quantum's propensity to please interrogators.

To neutralize my bias, the data had to make its own statements; I added boys and girls alike. Even so, I didn't expect overt markers relating to males to be interwoven with those of females. Instead, I rather anticipated finding two separate entanglements. Adji Desir from Immokalee applied the brakes to my female-only prejudice.

The Exact Marie Factor @ 60%
Marie is a popular name; according to pokemyname.com, 8.98% of Americans claim it. That's 1 in 111. Florida's 2007 population estimate was 18,251,243; females accounted for 50.9% of the total. Using rounded numbers to guesstimate, half of the state's population - roughly 9,000,000 - is female. Out of that nine million, 810,000 (9%) are likely to be named Marie.

My homemade spreadsheet has 5 cells for child names and 5 for the names of their mothers. Since 9% of 10 = .899999+, one Marie on the list would be about right. Two wouldn't be unusual.

Instead of 1 or 2, however, the Marie tally is 6 … and 60% flatly defies the odds.

Although 60% is steep, it's possible that the true percentage is higher. While Cindy Marie Anthony was Caylee's biological grandmother, she functioned as a surrogate parent. She even referred to herself as Caylee's mom. Adding her to the mother column would bring Marie appearances up to 70%. I won't do that but I may add a couple of grandparent columns.

Florida Entanglement … Part 1

The horrid murdered and missing child situations in Florida have my attention.

In 2007, I yammered on about recurrent elements and how they are characteristic of entanglements in my post: Repetition = Key to Identifying Astral Networks. The events in Florida underscore that notion.

Normally, I would not use names to make a point but there's no way around it because sound sequences and names are the prime attention grabbers. The unmistakable phonetic resonance of Caylee and Haleigh turned my head. The fact that the girls resided in Florida was interesting. When I found they shared the middle name Marie, I had little choice but to follow up.

The table below is cut from the spreadsheet I'm compiling. The start date arbitrary; provided my hypothesis* is correct, the entanglement process will predate 2005. Likewise, affiliated incidents will not be relegated to Florida alone.

Looking only at names, two things are apparent:

... (1) in the ten cells allocated to identify missing children and their mothers, the name Marie pops up six times;

... (2) tonal resonance ~ the A-Lee sound ~ is embedded in fabric of the words Caylee, Haleigh and Immokalee.

* My premise is that entanglements of the negative sort are trespassers using guerilla tactics to take advantage in/of 3d reality. Typically, an incident surfaces, siphons energy and then slips below the radar. An entangled episode may appear to be stand-alone event; this is deceptive. It is the nature of entanglements to network and energies taken from one episode are used to fuel others.

LightWorker Charge

... for those who wade the river between worlds …

... who comfort and guide the dead …

... the task is great, the need ongoing …

Namaste

Amid the darkness of smoke, through rubble and surrounded by the sounds of fear …
Walk tall that those you seek will see you.

Move purposely, with open heart, that those you serve will understand your presence …
Speak softly your words of comfort.

Offer your hand, in pure love and compassion, to those you will not pass …
Carry the crippled and support the lame.

Lead from destruction into Light those who suffer in confusion and pain ...
The path of Light shines before you … In the silence of the aftermath, open wide the way.

On the wings of angels … Into the arms of guardians, commit the helpless …
The choirs of all Heavens are singing souls home … Walk tall and light the way.

Feng Shui Kismet

I'm on the move ... a field of synchronicity opened a portal to Feng Shui adventure!

Reality: … I don't have a reliable history of swiftness when its come to identifying fields of opportunity. Often by the time I've snapped to, the only things in my rear view mirror are dead-end side-roads. 'Use it or lose it' is a statement that rather annoys me but it holds truth: … if you wait long enough, possibilities slip-slide away.

While I can't deny laziness or obstinance, the trait that confounds me most is my downright dense streak. I have a remarkable ability to overlook the obvious. To make matters worse, when I catch an intuitive glimpse, I tend to grind it to micro-dust by over-thinking its implications.

At any rate, I finally ~ and earnestly ~ asked the Universe to sidestep subtle messaging. I needed spelled out, in my face communication. I requested signals be repeated as necessary. The only major limiting parameter I included was that neither myself ~ nor any one else for that matter ~ be injured.

My part of the agreement was ~ despite fears, questions and reservations ~ I would take action. I stopped short of vowing blind commitment … that would have to wait until I got the hang of messages again. (Yes, this was a mode of interaction I once trusted.) Out of practice on the trust platform, I added a cya caveat: … action could be as minor as examination. Baby steps, the plan.

So I was blumping along ~ my "bang the drum, get my attention, shine a spotlight on possibilities" request far from the forefront of though ~ when I rented a dvd … Feng Shui, Wellspring Media, 2000. The Universe came through ... drums sounded, my attention pricked and, in the blink of a proverbial eye, a world of opportunity materialized.

The result is bigger than a baby step … Feng Shui questing is underway and I'm on the path to certification! Although I don't know the ultimate scope of the adventure, I've engaged destiny … and I'm feeling pretty darn good about it!

Return of Saturn

Sometime ago, I lost the ability to feel my brain hemispheres communicate. It wasn't a faculty I pondered much, just something I couldn't help but notice: … it felt like a little horizontal electrical shock zapping across the median of my brain.

It was always in the same place: … directly in line with the center of my nose, a little forward from the top of my head. I don't remember when I first became aware of it exactly; I was in my late twenties or early thirties when I identified it.

Anyway, I was thinking about it recently, wondering what it meant and why it went away. My current conclusion is that it activated in response to changing brain function; it was a developmental trait. I suppose, in a fashion, it was an artifact of a brain war. I am certain it had everything to do with integration.

The electrical passageway switched into operation during contemplation ~ when I thought about idea implications or tried to reconcile discrepancies. Sometimes I was in philosophical mode and sometimes I was troubleshooting equipment malfunctions at work. The subject didn't matter.

Despite the infamous Christmas Erector Set gift ~ when, with all good intention, my father determined my five year old self had what it took to replicate the Eiffel Tower on our living room floor ~ my formative disposition was laissez-faire weighted and my tendencies were intuitive.

The need to function with and within structured parameters came much later ~ when joining the workforce became a matter of necessity. Until then, analytical thought wasn't a requisite survival skill. When it became necessary, I needed a new neural network.

The zaps, imo, were symptoms of a restructuring syndrome whose overall purpose was balance. It was kind of magical in that triggering was more organic than conscious … maturation processes automatically kicked in when I hadn't the tiniest a clue they were dormant!

What happened to me wasn't at all unusual, I think. The times of life when "… circumstances conspire to make us reconsider our past and devise new structures for the future" are called the Return of Saturn. Returns occur when Saturn re-presents itself in the position it held when we were born. Orbital time is 29.5 years.

Official citations for the effects of Saturn's reappearance are somewhat plastic. The first is generally pegged between the ages of 28-31 with an average age of 29.5. While I can't speak for today's generation, I know women used to experience it before men. Second returns are said to take place around age 60. My personal observation is that both windows are flexible. I've watched first returns start as early as age 24 and as late as 34 … I've seen second return onsets as early as 55. I haven't looked into thirds yet.

Interestingly, recent scientific studies indicate first Returns of Saturn have organic anchors. As per Dr. Jay Giedd of the National Institute of Mental Health:
"Consider the lobes at the front of the brain. The nerve circuitry here ties together inputs from other parts of the brain. … In short, the frontal lobes are key for making good decisions and controlling impulses. … Brain scans show that the frontal lobes don't mature until age 25."

I'll be amazed if eventual research doesn't validate similar physical conditions for the later returns. Science following in the footprints of astrology aside, Saturn is often deemed the Lord of Karma, the Lord of Time and the Great Teacher … it's affiliated with responsibility, discipline, organization, security, science, authority, commitment, culture and tradition.

If you google Saturn's Return, you'll get a ton of references to turmoil, grey hair, painful lessons and general existential agony … basically the picture of a puritanical overlord comin' to whop us. Well, maybe … maybe not. The way I see it, it's relative.

The karmic element is the revealing key … what Saturn has to work with ~ the choices we've made, our karma, and our disposition ~ greatly shades interpretation. I completely agree with Jacquelyn Archer (Between the Pillars, February 2005):

"One of the mistakes as a young astrologer I made was to interpret Saturn’s energy as placing LIMITS and RESTRICTIONS on us. A gross misunderstanding of the potential energy this planet offers. Saturn illuminates for us where and how we RESTRICT and LIMIT ourselves. This energy employs us to literally think outside of the box we have put ourselves in. … During Saturn’s retrograde it’s back to school on learning new ways to approach life. TIME to bring to the consciousness the unconscious."*

Right on!

The Gift Tree

Natural rhythm sets the stage for opposition: … day > night … hot > cold … up > down … alive > dead … here > there.

From sensory experience, we extrapolate: … love > hate … happy > sad … wise > stupid … just > unjust … good > bad.

Between opposites are the grey scales:
… day > morning - midday - afternoon - evening > night
… hot > all kinds of warm - all kinds of cool > cold
… love > like - indifferent - dislike > hate
… happy > content - hanging out - uneasy > sad.

If something doesn't peg absolute polarity but is related to a given duality, it gets a designated spot on middle ground. Perhaps this pattern has something to do with the cross-cultural underpinning of the number 3. I've got that on my list of things to look into; for now, I want to stick with the subject of opposites.

The notion that we have to experience things in opposition to know the things themselves, makes me wonder. I often hear the admonition ~ we're sad because that's the only way we can know joy ~ as rationale for bad things happening to good people. While (1) I don't find it an especially comforting thought and (2) I perceive an undercurrent of arrogance in it, I have to ask: … is it true?

Could we, for example, be happy and stay happy without knowing sorrow? It makes sense to me we could. Conditioned as we are to evaluate in terms of duality, it's difficult to imagine we could rate our degrees of contentment or appreciate our lack of sorrow in the idyllic state. It's likewise easy to assume, without a sliding continuum of opposites, that it would be static. But would we be at loose ends? Would the state really be static?

Let's look at things that don't require opposites. Take trees, for instance. They don't have polar opposties. Sure, there are places where there are no trees ~ regions where trees once stood, treeless areas where they can't or don't take root ~ but non-tree as a polar opposite isn't a viable notion. We perceive trees; we don't perceive negative trees.

Hmmm … tree - no tree vs. happy - sad … one is physical and the other is emotional. We've got 3d trees that don't depend on duality ~ pecan, orange, maple, willow, etc. We use tree analogies to understand and explain what we cannot see. We've got ordained metaphysical trees ~ the Tree of Life, the Tree of Knowledge. Add to these the archetypal World Tree and we've got ourselves a dimensional forest!

I began this blog planning to shift my earlier astral discussion to its proper etheric footing and, as you can see, I got stuck in the bushes. Because I kept getting hung up on duality and the judgment that comes with it, I couldn't help but think something else was trying to manifest. Time to shift focus.

Judgment is a Tree of Knowledge attribute and it points to a Garden of Eden quest. Now, it's not that Eden is verboten or invalid … rather, it’s a traditional concept with baggage. Since my oveall contention is that we need new eyes as humanity moves forward, the idea of getting snagged in a thicket of same-old thought forms was irksome, frustrating. It was identical, however, to what was happening with my blogging attempt.

I noted the parallel but I was still miffed. The plethora of systematized interpretations dealing with the fall of man, the nature of good and evil, free will and the right of choice, the nature of serpents in mythology, even the ontology the intuitive feminine: … hmmm ... Tree of Knowledge branches keeping vision locked in collective place. They were keeping me from blog progress, as well.

Doctrines bind thoughts. They shape and color notions. They project boundaries that are difficult to transcend. Even propositions rooted with good intentions create barriers. The popular adage ~ think out of the box ~ enjoins us to do what is simply one of hardest tasks we can undertake.

However, thorns of indoctrination ~ accepted interpretations that generate patterns of thought and emotional responses ~ are precisely what we have to recognize and question. We need to do this from a non-polarized perspective. Some baggage has outlived its usefulness. Where is the fresh wind? How does it make itself known?

I was daunted, brain-locked, going in circles in the shade of the Tree of Knowledge … when there was a knock at the door. Talk about synchronicity! It was FedEx with a package from an outfit called The GiftTree.

The box contained all the fixin's for a New Year's celebration … all of the ingredients for a party of beginnings! While it arrived two days late as per the calendar, it was flawlessly timed with its message! The Universe offered … I accepted.

The Gift Tree … a new tree in the Garden? a new name for an existing tree? or a new way to envision? I don't have a firm answer but my plan is to tend the symbolism and keep it in the forefront of my consciousness.

The new wind blows! Next time I'm stuck, I'll be making a bee line for The Gift Tree!

Astral Awareness and Paradigm Tweaking

Calls went out in the fall of 2006 when an astral node blew and a shooter began killing children in a rural school. Healers and facilitators felt the urgency and responded. As mentioned in an August 2007 post, a healer and journey worker friend of mine and I were among those who gathered.

Spiritual disaster work isn't always clear cut and obvious … it certainly wasn't for us that day. Because our customary roles involved interaction with participants, our thoughts focused on tending those in need. What happened was more like watching a movie at a drive-in.

From a distance, we saw concentric circles of protective light surrounding the devastation … within the circles, workers administered to the casualties, their families and community. Except for my friend's tenuous connection to one of the children, we stood back.

Our expectations differing from the reality, we were measurably disoriented. However, we trusted the validity of the call we'd received and we knew the event wasn't trivial. Repeatedly we re-grounded and re-balanced.

Best we could determine, we were called to witness … exactly what we were to see, we didn't know. Lack of an overview was of no consequence; we committed to provide, do, whatever guidance disclosed. It was with acceptance of the unfamiliar and alignment with greater intention that we became aware of the furious, terrible hole in the ground beside us.

It's an understatement to note the hole was an unexpected anomaly. It was a dreadful aberration. It felt as if it contained legions of horrors … some recent, some from times past. We could hear it raging ~ filled with sounds of gale force winds and echoes of screams. We could see it squirming ~ frantically sucking the emotionally charged atmosphere. We caught glimpses of the system's interior … we felt its ferocious greed and determination.

Bizarre as it was, we didn't pause to mull its implications, much less consider why it was on the periphery, where it had been or what it had been doing before we saw it. In the moment, all we knew was that it was a component of the tragedy.

We snapped to: … perception of the astral opening was only a partial task. The system needed to be disengaged from 3d and the hole sealed.

Using an etheric disk equivalent to a massive manhole cover, we severed the connection. It held. The sounds subsided and the quaking ground around the opening calmed. There was no pleasure in our action … truthfully, we didn't know if what we'd done had any affect on the immediate circumstances, on the injured or the healers and workers involved.

We were, at most, only semi-relieved. The disk wasn't a permanent solution … it was an adequate solution for the current incident but it didn't address the fact of the manifest hole or the massive amount of energy the system behind it wielded. What was it? Where did it come from? Why did we see it? Clearly, this experience would require more than a little debriefing.

Astral Buzzsaws & Axial Ages … The Boat of Reality is a-Rockin'

Without interference, energies in motion continue until they atrophy. Astral networks perpetuate and propagate. They avoid deterioration by using energies from manifest events to fuel themselves and create offspring.

If everything is part of the Greater Whole, is it right to thwart these things? That's a razor's edge question. Make no mistake: … for healers, psychopomps and warriors alike, it is a spiritual determination. Not to be wishy washy, but: … the answer is yours.

Resolution to service is chock full of variables ~ ethical, personal, mechanical. Mere recognition is a form of participation. In a sense, then, we all handle astral events … some just more consciously than others. Observation we can regulate somewhat. Attendance is a commitment.

Middle ground meddling is neither prudent nor advisable … it plays to and with weaknesses. The lure to dabble can begin in innocence, as a product of curiosity. It can be insidious ... sans the counterbalance of understanding, it can lead to very ungrounded behaviours and manifestations.

Calls are deep knowings accompanied by feelings of responsibility. They often produce physical agitation and a sense of urgency. When dealing with calls of attendance, we function from our strengths.

Just as event groups vary, individual callings differ. It's not unusual for them to come progressively, in stages with each new summons building on its predecessors. There's wisdom in the process … paths to commitment follow the lines of our development. We may spend years, decades even, wending our ways through unseen matters before we accept the charge of facilitator.

Know thyself. Evaluate yourself clearly, without the rose colored glasses of personal or external expectation. Declining the role is not passport to damnation and it doesn't make us bad people. I may fully appreciate a welder's art and craft … I may learn all I can about it … but my path may not be that of a welder.

That said, numbers of us do engage in the tasks of astral impingement. Many of us work alone ~ more correctly, alone in 3d ~ and we work without a standards manual. In my opinion, any how-to handbook for dealing with everything astral would be questionable.

I say this because I believe the times they are a-'changin'. It's not that what worked in the recent past ~ in recorded historical times ~ is invalid … rather, I think there is a very big possibility it's insufficient.

German psychologist and philosopher Karl Jaspers, when he published his work The Origin and Goal of History in 1949, released the notion of 'axial ages' into the collective. The term he coined referred to pivotal times of transition in which "… the spiritual foundations of humanity were laid simultaneously and independently …"

According to theory, the first axial shift occurred in the period from 800 bce to 200 bce. It gave rise to the foundations of civilization ~ economic, social, and political ~ and it birthed the world's religions. Since public introduction of the idea, axial age reality has been bandied about … some dismiss it; others have expanded it, suggesting additional axial ages as well as the fact we are either in one, or on the cusp of one, now.

I suspect multiple axial ages have occurred ~ some poking into larger time frames like overlooked little ice ages … some so ancient as to be evident only in trace memories of Atlantis and Lemuria. I also agree with the premise that one is underway. Entire new sets of conceptions and behaviour are taking shape.

What does this have to do with astral entanglement? Two things:
(1) I suspect astral consciousness is aware of the change, fully intent on taking advantage of diminished institutional holds on 3d reality.
(2) I believe it's foolhardy for us to rely solely on past definitions and models. Now is the time to envision with new eyes.

The #3 … Triskele Formation and Buzzsaws in Consciousness

In his 1938 work, Medieval Number Symbolism, Vincent Hopper noted: … a single occurrence is of no statistical significance … a second occurrence might be coincidence … a third, however, gives the impress of law.

Across civilizations and for who knows how long, the number three has been crowned special. Contrary to what some writers say, the significant triple is not exclusively a western concept … the I Ching's hexagrams, for example, are composed of two figures of three lines each ~ double trigrams.

Since the why and the how of threes may well have practical application with a quantum twist, let's try to get a handle on the number's mannerisms and techniques.

We all have repertoires of stock concerns keeping our minds busy ~ family matters, jobs, finances, health issues, favorite interests, must do lists, want to do lists, etc. We're conditioned, voluntarily and involuntarily, to ignore what isn't pertinent.

These walls-pass-not are defense against incoming data to help us maintain focus. Advertisers spend bookoo bucks trying to break through our liminal barriers. Current marketing wisdom holds it takes a minimum of 3, sometimes 6, but most generally 9 exposures to a product for a potential buyer to notice and form an opinion about it.

hm-hm-hm-hm-hmmmmm … 3 or a multiple of 3. Could it be that humanity is hardwired to heed the number and its multiples? Nothing's impossible and some things are probable. What is clear is that three is a trigger.

By function, it appears astral energy spikes from invisible astral batteries/nodes (just like propaganda and sales campaigns from behind the scenes mind control specialists) have purpose:
event #1 = The Harbinger … fixes an astral hook in the physical;
event #2 = The Setter … establishes the relevant field of operation;
event #3 = The Activator … breaks through the threshold of consciousness.

The symbol that best approximates this triple whammy is the triskele … this is the venerable three armed, three legged, three appendaged image associated with rotating movement. This motion-oriented template is especially meaningful … because a thought or intention of any origin loosed into the collective absolutely has the ability to hack through it like a buzzsaw.

Several months ago I mentioned I was harping on astral matters because I felt they are an unacknowledged element of entanglement in modern society and that it behooves those of us whose purpose is to assist in transformation processes to know the circumstances and characteristics of the realities we encounter.

I still feel that way. Detecting harbinger events is a first step toward thwarting havoc wrecking, astral-serving destruction ... knowing astral intrusions strive for buzzsaw status is a new informational tool.

Whether we deploy as warriors at the outset of an astral series or later as healers, there's a quantum catch: … the observed and the observer have a relationship ~ to insure we don't further fuel matters, we must function consistently with clarity and without responsive passion.

Admittedly, we're walking a fine edge here but I truly believe it is possible to follow the admonition of the Roman physician, Galen: … Above All ~ Do No Harm.

Repetition = Key to Identifying Astral Networks

In the astral entanglement quest, what do we have so far?

In the astral, we've got a network of holding cells. The purpose of the cells is dual: … they collect energies from 3d events … and they release energies into new events. This process creates cycles.

In normal 3d reality, we've got seemingly unrelated hairball events happening over time which contain like ~ and sometimes identical ~ energy signatures and patterns.

Depicting an astral network as it appears from the astral plane is the easy part … delineating it from the 3d perspective is something else.

Astral entanglement indicators in 3d defy logic. More often than not, they are patently, convolutedly, implausible and dubious ... they're routinely discounted as figments of fertile imaginations. Nonetheless, coincidental flukes and statistical anomalies are hallmarks of astral provocation.

And just what would these flukes be? Well, this is the tricky, messy part … they can be anything. Physical objects as well as the notations used to identify them ~ names, numbers, dates, modes of transportation (airplanes), types of buildings (schools), etc. ~ are easily spotted. Less visible are embedded sequences ~ alliterations, numbers in series ~ and the frequent presence of objects or images, of words or phrases, of colors or shapes.

Whatever they happen to be, they're detectable by virtue of their repetition.

Repetition is cardinal. In addition to signifying astral entanglement activity, repetition reveals something about the nature of the networks themselves: … while they appear disjointed, astral networks are not altogether chaotic. This is precisely what the German root word for entanglement ~ verschränkung ~ implies.

Good examples are things in threes: … three planes crash … three celebrities die … three friends take ill ... three cars wreck at an intersection. Trilogies aren't solely an astral standard … but triple-manifestation is one modus operandi.

Astral Nodes … Anatomy and Feeding

Nodes are points marking intersections where two or more objects or phenomenon converge … this is their simplest description. In astronomy-speak, they are points where orbits cross planes.

In organic contexts, they are more than points: … they are points+. In botany, nodes refer to joints in stems and branches on trees … the plus being a visible product of growth.

Anatomically, they are knot-like masses of tissue … they are either part of a structure, like the lymph system, or seemingly stand alone encasements, like cysts. This anatomical plus refers to node capacity to collect and hold some volume of matter.

These scholastic definitions hold true for unseen realities as well. Thought nodes arise whenever notions intersect. Without energy input, thought nodes amount to little more than minute dots in the ethers. Thoughts invigorated with any type of feeling, however, constitute a horse of a different color … interest adds pluses to points.

By way of a highly unlikely example, if I bothered to ponder Paris Hilton's behaviour for a day, the trail of thought nodes I'd generate would require a microscope to track. That's because I really don't give a hoot ... I cannot muster any enthusiasm for things Paris.

The only node that might stand out from the bulk would be the one created the moment I kicked my doofus butt for wading around in absurdity … there's a real possibility that chastising thought would flick out as an emotional spike with a touch of substance!

To the eye of the publicity hungry whale of a machine that is the PH syndicate, these doppy musings might resemble a cloud of delicious plankton. My self-disciplining emotion spike, in all fairness, might equate to a morsel of embedded krill. Regardless, the entire set of nodes would have little density ... they'd be a fog of astral fodder.

The point is: … greater feelings at intersections create proportionally more vitalized nodes. Like the battery and 3d plug example earlier: … the process is interactive. The difference is that when we do the thinking, we are the batteries providing juice. Node umph is very much a matter of personal investment, of passion and emotion.

Altered States of Consciousness and Perception

Normal 3d states of consciousness routinely morph into altered states of consciousness during energy work. ASCs vary in nature and depend most heavily on the natural attributes of practitioners.

Healers, for example, who are medically intuitive may perceive visuals ... images of a person's body with color highlights indicating areas of malfunction. Where one sees in color, another equally adept practitioner may sense via objects or sound … heavy metal contamination may look like an anvil or a frying pan, pinched nerves may sound like fingernails scraping a blackboard.

An intestinal blockage may make a healer feel like s/he is lugging a belly full of golf balls. Yet another may recognize the acrid aroma of dis-ease or catch whiff of an herb the body needs to augment its immune system. Many receive guidance from higher consciousness and angelic helpers.

There's no set standard in ASC perceptions … as a consequence, decoding them is a lot like interpreting dreams. With practice, however, workers become familiar with their personal penchants and develop repertoires for future reference.

My primary bent is toward the visual with auditory assists. What has become evident to me as well is that my role is often on the periphery. I work with environments surrounding subjects ~ which often turn out to be not people but the functional energies manifest in circumstances enveloping them.

One example of this is end of life transitions. In these settings, I am regularly an auxiliary facilitator, tasked with clearing emotional fields, subduing charged energy barbs and providing support in terms the individual as well as his/her relatives and friends accept.

While the calls I receive are sometimes local, the preponderance is non-local. 911 was the pivotal event that made me aware of my general propensity … it was also where it dawned on me that the supporting niche I fill includes assisting others also called to help.

There is no question whatsoever in my mind that many of us experienced analogous epiphanies then. It does not matter whether we are acquainted in 3d or cyberspace ... it's of no import if we are complete strangers from different lands ... the etheric connections created at that time, I have zero doubt, now serve as our operational templates when need arises and calls got out.

Dynamic Astral … Nodes ~ Batteries & 3d Plugs

Collective subsets are invisible and real … they are also dynamic.

In a collective subset, there are two aspects of dynamic to consider: … (1) between individuals and (2) between 3d and invisible astral anchors. We've touched on the first; now let's look at the second.

The simplest illustration is the connection that sets up between two points or, more properly, nodes. In the bare bones example above, the invisible astral is represented by the battery and the 3d complement by the plug. Although it's not neat and tidy, the entire subset could be called a field or a sphere.

In this arrangement, energy from an astral storage cell wouldn't have a problem hauing pattotti to an engaged receiver. Batteries, though, are famous for running out of juice … which brings up the question of how an astral set up might gather sufficient energy to perpetuate itself.

I believe this process is what I witnessed at the site of the school shootings a year ago. I was called to the location in what I thought at the time were psychopomp and healing contexts. Once there, it was apparent those roles were attended and I had been called to serve in another capacity ~ as best I could tell at the time, I was supposed to observe a hole in the ground.

To save you the boredom of reading back, here's the abridgment:
" … the hole opened into a tube with a multitude of forked off, smaller branches. It wasn't red but it reminded me of the body's circulatory system. It's inaccurate to say it wasn't pumping anything into the 3d scene because it may have been ... it was laboring to hold its field of manifestation.

However, its primary objective was to drain the scene ... it was a furious energy sucking vacuum cleaner. Instead of funneling into a central canister, the energy acquisitions surged ~ harum-scarum and at breakneck speed ~ through tunnelettes. I couldn't see where any of them were ultimately headed but I felt sure they wouldn't end up in dead end receptacles."

What this means to me: … astral systems collect emotional energies from violent 3d events. The systems have windows of opportunity in which to do this. Energies syphoned from a brutal scene are funneled into resonant astral storage cells ~ batteries ~ where they are held until another 3d node plugs itself into the invisible system or field.

This astral collection and distribution model sheds light on the seemingly improbable connections between event groups. They are not copycat events … they are alike because each one utilizes the energies provided by another.

More importantly to my mind, this explanation offers potential strategy to quell negative energy flows. For lightworkers, healers, shamanic practitioners, energy workers ~ all who attend the human condition in the etheric ~ knowing the feed lines can be severed is more than a little significant.

The Greater Whole & Collective SubSets

The notion unseen networks of thought and emotion affect human behaviour isn't novel.

Everything that exists is a part of The Greater Whole. That Which Is, indeed, is the grand and awesome Totality, the Mystery worthy of ponderment … knowing It is the goal of mystics, of science and religion alike.

That Which Is ~ the universe, multiverses and all of creation anywhere and everywhere ~ isn't easy to think, though … it's really, really, really big! In normal consciousness, size alone renders it impossible to fathom.

What people do, instead, is focus on smaller units, on countless sub-collectives. For the most part and without passing judgment, we rely on subsets borne of cultural affiliation ~ local, regional, national ~ religion, politics, class, gender, appearance, etc. to define and position ourselves.

Resonant bonds between individuals within subsets are products of agreed upon, communally honored, foundational thought forms that underpin peer groups and societies. Despite invisibility, subsets are quite real.

The moment a sub-collective takes precedence in thought over The Greater Whole, there is division. Division + human capacity to categorize and judge = oft certain birth of polarity.

Besides effectively easing the onus of personal inquiry into the vast Everything, polarity creates framework through which we can easily identify who we are, here and now, in terms of recognizable relationship. We know which end is up, who's who in the pecking order and what to expect … these are is polarity's practical conveniences.

Within the boundaries of collective thought forms, we can find comfort being one of the better these instead of one of the less desirable those … it's flawed, yes, but still one honkingly seductive rating scale!

Quantum Model ~ Template for Event Groups?

Can quantum models serve as templates for larger forms of manifestation? I think they can.

The hole in the ground experience mentioned in Astral ~ Why Go There? Part 3 demonstrates a method ~ an entanglement ~ by which energy from one event can be syphoned and routed elsewhere. If this is viable, the possibility of 'event groups' is a reality.

An event group of the hairball type can be defined a collection of happenings that share communal energy. Because the energy tunnels connecting them are not obvious, individual eruptions appear to arise in isolation.

While there's nothing to say it's impossible for group events to manifest simultaneously, the ones that have shouldered into my awareness present in series … varying from rapid fire, with one event following another within days or weeks, to slow fire, which allows up to a year or more between occurrences.

Despite separation in time, event groups exhibit eerily similar, multiple energy patterns. Readily recognizable, common hairball elements include: … forms of abuse, individuals targeted, staging locations and types of weapons.

Even though copycats and hairballs differ, the possibility of an event group exists whenever there are parallels in occurrences. In copycat events, perpetrators consciously seek to replicate previous incidents.

Copycats employ conscious scheming … basically, they purposefully manipulate reported energies into new settings. Hairball violence outbursts, on the other hand, carry intentions of 'purity' … they are embraced by perps as specific, unique, one of a kind occurrences.

The feasibility of hairball energy fields being wired to and fueled by an unseen and unknown system of supply ~ of being astrally entangled ~ reveals a reality that's both ironic and deceptive.

Quantum Definitions and a Pile of Salt

When it comes to communication, things quantum are crazy makers … they are for me anyway. I hear about quantum this or that and my truth bells start ringing. I experience an instant of synchronized brain harmony. It doesn't matter if a concept originated in the mind of an Einstein or the mind of God. I'm there ~ I'm connected … soaking up insight and happy dancing.

In these twinkling states, I greet quantum on equal terms. Aware these points of awe are fleeting, I make mental notes to pursue quantum nuances when I come to ground. Once back in normal consciousness, I pull out the research and resource tools.

Whappo! Talk about getting smacked down like a fly headed for pie! Reality check: … I'm so not a scientist. I'm not much of a messenger, either ... carrying data from an altered state to daily life is a skill I have yet to master.

It's not a completely lost cause, though. One thing my logical and intuitive mind-sets agree on: … truth is where you find it. Intuitively, I understand ... it's my intellect that needs assistance. To help my logical self over the hurdles, I make notes ~ it's sort of the mental equivalent of pacing the floor.

Quanta:
… plural of quantum

... small, distinct units

Quantum:
… from Latin meaning 'how much'
… refers to the smallest amount of a physical quantity that can exist on its own

Quantum Packet:
… a single amount of quantum energy is identified as a packet
… light waves, for example, contain multiple energy packets

Quantum System:
… an organized grouping of recognized principles and peculiarities relating to a quantum observation

Quantum Physics, Quantum Theory, Quantum Mechanics:
… these terms are often used interchangeably

… read slowly when encountering them

Quantum Physics:
… branch of physics that deals with matter on the atomic level ~ ie, it's the physics of the very small
… describes and predicts properties of a physical system based on quantum theory discoveries

Quantum Theory:
… group of general propositions used as principles of explanation for quantum phenomena
… explanation(s) of matter and energy that views energy in small, distinct units ~ quanta ~ which are released and absorbed
… says all matter displays properties of both waves and particles ~ as does light

Quantum Mechanics:
… how quantum things function
… another way to say = deals with the operational qualities of matter
… suggests the behavior of matter and energy is inherently probabilistic
… indicates an observer of a physical system is part of the overall equation ~ ie, there is a relationship between a physical system being observed and the observer her/himself

Quantum State:
… deals with quantum relationships
… a defined environment that describes the conditions in which a physical system exists
… not all quantum states are alike ~ they vary
… states are based on properties like energy, motion and magnetics
… in addition to identified quantum states, new ones are emerging ~ gravity is one of the recent additions
… state(s) are delineated scientifically sets of numbers ~ which sounds like a remote viewing protocol

Ouachita Celebration!

Views of Queen Wilhelmina Lodge and the Ouachita National Forest that surrounds it.

Blog pause: ... I'm heading up this mountain, Rich Mountain, for a few days 'cause that's where daParty is! B's birthday was last week … the celebration is this weekend!

It's a big deal for us ... quite without warning and with zero grace, B fell into the River Styx in 1996. Getting him out of there, oh that was a to-do ... but a mission accomplished! It's time to make happy!!!

Entanglement Word Morph

Having danced with astral terminology, let's waltz with entanglement:

… the act of entangling
… the state of being entangled
… something that entangles; snare; involvement; complication*

Oh, for pete's sake, is it too much to ask a definition to exclude versions of the term it's defining?

Okay … let's take the backward step and look at entangle:
… to twist together or entwine into a confusing mass; snarl
… to complicate; confuse
… to involve in or as if in a tangle**

That's closer … no cigar, but closer. Obviously, the word entanglement isn't out of morph mode yet. In the mid-1930s, entanglement ~ as applied to quantum activity ~ was christened. The father of this baby: … Austrian theoretical physicist and winner of the 1933 Nobel Prize in Physics, Erwin Schrödinger.

The word Schrödinger used, however, wasn't entanglement … it was verschränkung. As per The Center for Quantum Computation, there was loss in the translation:

"Entanglement" and "Verschränkung" are examples of translated words that indeed conjure up different images in their respective languages.

The German "Verschränkung" translates literally into English as "folding" or "crossing over", as in the folding or crossing of one's arms or legs.

The English "entanglement" translates literally into German as Verfangen, which is often used to describe a tangle of strings or of cables.

Both, it seems, bring out the correct notion of inseparability: the binding or linking of two systems in some physically fundamental way.

However, the meanings of these two are undoubtedly quite different."***

Quite different, indeed. German verschränkung implies far less anarchy than English's balled up entanglement version. It's important, ultimately, to keep this in mind because the bottom line is the difference in hodgepodge and harmony ... and that's a matter, whether we ponder the nature of the void or not, that underpins our personal world views and determines how we structure our lives. It certainly had an effect on Albert Einstein.

Einstein, who believed God didn't play dice with the universe and who had his own baggage when it came to quantum entanglement's non-local implications, objected. His take on the concept:

Spukhafte Fernwirkung ... aka ... Spooky Action at a Distance.

Well, spooky may be correct … but spooky doesn't mean it isn't true.

Astral ~ Why Go There? … part 3

Ask and ye shall receive

I'd asked … it took a hole in the ground for me listen up.

At first it was mildly interesting ~ obviously relieving but not captivating ~ to note I wasn't called to every atrocity I heard about. Thinking back, it was a good half a year, maybe more, before it dawned on me these brutality alerts weren't guiding me to individuals … they were about the dots, the events themselves. *Big Duh Moment*

When that light bulb switched on, I did the decent compulsive thing … I decided to track the calls. My plan was to identify hairball markers … my hope was they'd shed light on the links ... my goal was to discover whatever it was I kept missing, to find the why behind the calls.

That meant spreadsheets, monstrous spreadsheets. In addition to regular data ~ names, ages, times of day and criminal backgrounds ~ I plugged in natural events ~ phases of the moon, solar flares, concurrent earthquakes and storms.

I sought out feng shui pathways and obstructions ~ rivers, aquifers, highways, intersections, mountains and molehills … any discernible line of flow or holding pot that might foster energetic effects.

I'm easily dazzled by details. One day while clicking along in data entry mode, I realized my method was faulty. The mapping approach was equivalent to diagnosing small pox by poking each little lesion.

Air out of my sail, I stood down from the spreadsheets to reevaluate. Popular advice was: … go within. Fact of the matter, I was reluctant to enter an altered state with nasty astral on my mind. I didn't know what to do … but I didn't worry for long.

In the autumn of 2006, soon after I hit the pause button, a friend ~ an experienced healer and journey worker ~ and I responded to a shooting. We weren't lone attendees … a multitude of workers had been called.

Amid the gathering of lightworkers and facilitators, something else was visible: … a big hole in the ground.

To my perception, the hole opened into a tube with a multitude of forked off, smaller branches. It wasn't red but it reminded me of the body's circulatory system. It's inaccurate to say it wasn't pumping anything into the 3d scene because it may have been ... it was laboring to hold its field of manifestation.

However, its primary objective was to drain the scene … it was a furious energy sucking vacuum cleaner. Instead of funneling into a central canister, the energy acquisitions surged ~ harum-scarum and at breakneck speed ~ through the tunnelettes. I couldn't see where any of them were ultimately headed but I felt sure they wouldn't end up in dead end receptacles.

I didn't like it and I wasn't pleased to see it … but there it was, bigger than day and un-ignorable. It had my attention and ~ ratso fratso damn ~ it pointed in the one direction I didn't want to go: … toward the astral. I whined before I considered the trail of clues.

Underground was symbolic … this was a dimensional portal, replete with pathways. To say it was angry would be an understatement … my take was that it was steeped in bloodlust and malice. Moreover, that the entire network was a conduit, frantically transmitting highly charged emotions and thought forms, meant it existed in relationship to something other.

The hole marked a hairball dot ~ a terminal of manifestation in 3d. The system's branches demonstrated how the invisible links operated. The driving force that permeated the vision was a great sense of urgency. That sense was key to my understanding. *Big Eureka Moment*

The system had a limited window of opportunity! It had a quantum structure! This was entanglement ~ astral entanglement ~ in action!

Astral ~ Why Go There? … part 2

As to the other question ~ Why scrutinize the astral? Why not let the sleeping dog lie? Perhaps I could if it was resting … but I don't think it is.

'Things always happen in threes!' … Is this a superstition? an expectation that's fulfilled by waiting for semi-comparable incidents to occur? an acknowledgment of similarities noted coincidentally? or does it have a somewhat mysterious, yet bona fide, basis in fact? I believe it's the latter.

In fact, I believe beyond the three-in-sequence scenario: … I believe many presumably unconnected events are 'somewhat mysteriously' bound together. It wouldn't surprise me to know there are legions of invisible links. The ones I can name off the top of my head are:

• consequential … these fall into the obvious "if this, then that" category;
• archetypal … these are restagings of great romantic legends and cultural dramas;
• hairball … these don't appear to be consequential and they don't cater exclusively to standard themes. They come in waves but they do not fit a classic copy-cat theory.

Several years ago, hairballs began grabbing my attention. The uncomfortable truth is: … I've been drawn to some really ugly incidents. Primarily these involved abuse and slaughter of innocents. My interest wasn't relegated to rubbernecking … it was more like a calling. The nature of the calling, though, was unclear. It had a high weirdness factor and I was repulsed.

I did the normal thing ~ I ran through the checklist of possibilities: … Was I careless? Had I allowed myself to be caught up in media frenzies? Were unrecognized karmic wounds popping open? Was I undergoing a complete identity rewrite?

With each gruesome event, those questions were never far from the top of my mind. Never far below the surface was something else as well: … a deep feeling of responsibility. I knew I had to pay attention … there was something I was to witness, to ascertain. But what?

When it comes to end of life transitions, my role is customarily indirect … that is, while I offer support to the ones who are passing forward, my job is to secure peace in the environment surrounding them. This, then, is what I began doing with real time transpersonal hairballs.

When called to an incident, I offered the tools in my care … at the very least, it beat gawking.
