Anyone having difficulty with a room for November in Teddington (as the Lensbury is fully booked), might like to look at this place - seems nice and accommodating.  He has a kitchenette and tea/coffee/microwave etc.

I’ve booked myself in, and have some room if anyone needs a lift to the Lensbury Saturday morning (I’ll be arriving Saturday morning not Friday night).

He says he has more rooms available if anyone else needs one…

How about this for a complex and very clever viral movie marketing campaign.

Check out www.theihm.com www.aerospaceroboticscorp.com and the googles for dr soren ulfert.  

A great opportunity to develop awareness of the messages and language that is being spun into us and the pattern of creating fake realities. 

This campaign is somewhat murky because it does with the current emotions already being stirred around the economic situation, climate change, peak oil and apocalyptic interpretations.

And of course in passing this on I am doing exactly what they programmed me to do. I will see the movie 2012 at some time and I will see it from an observer point of view, noticing if and how it pulls me in, what paradigm it might create in viewers and more.

For the record I do believe the world is in the throes of a healing, shifting and emergence and that we will all be affected.  I also believe that we will survive when we can see the possibility of what can emerge in the aftermath.  I don’t necessarily think this will come in the form of an apocalyptic event, we’re having them all the time in small waves.. but I do think we will see an accelerated amount of energy pulling in two directions.

One will be the energy that tells us to scrabble for a share in the lessening booty, to cling to what is, to hold onto, amass, build quickly our fortune so that we can stay safe and sheltered from the shifts.

The other will be the energy that says, let go, go inside and find the spirit of YOU devoid of patterns and beliefs that limit you and soar towards a new awakening and emergence.   It is the energy that reshape our awareness of abundance and leaves us being in a state of rather than always seeking for.

We may prepare ourselves by considering the value of a simpler life, living more closely to nature, becoming more self sufficient and sustainable, creating more localized community, reviving old-time survival skills and facilities, embracing alternative/natural wellness strategies and lessening our dependence on gas, gadgets and gloss and being prepared to adapt to the exponentially increasing rate of change.

Take heart, if you are experiencing the rumbles... this that we are all undergoing through waking up to a greater awareness and more global consciousness is the hard work of emerging from the shedding of the skin... the letting go... the rising up to quell the conflict between the old programming, deeply embedded and the new that we are embedding into ourselves through this work and other schools of practice and the ongoing maintenance of a connection to the world pulse and a refining of our intent in contribution to it.

The Mayans did not predict the end of the world in 2012.  They predicted the end of a stage of consciousness shifting.. a point where emergence will take place.. and it is up to us to shape what is going on through our own energies and create a world worth living in and leaving to those that follow behind us...I suspect this will be a very different world than that which we were taught to dream of...

With love

I don’t know if any of you are on Facebook, but I was recently invited to a group – one of many that are emerging abundantly like little seedlings popping out all over the place. Including Farmville.. but more of that another time...

This group is called Letter to the Future.  You write a letter to the future in whatever form you wish, saying what you want... and post it.  Now, imagine for a moment, that you set yourselves up to create a future worth living, not just for you now but for the generations of life that will come after us... the next caretakers and symbiotic synergizers of this planet.... what energies could you set up and direct into the future... from a place of intent, not just for yourself, but for the universe...

Right now there’s a lot of energy generated in disturbance, apparent change, unusual weather patterns, economic challenges and we are all aware of this.    To me what’s going on is that we are smack bang in the middle of a time of great evolution for the human species and all life on earth... We are being catapulted by the combination of our total energetic composition, each one of us contributing to what IS by every nanonano signals we are sending out.  And we all know that we are like a tangle of signal facilities and energy transmitters which are easily led astray...and can easily become confused... if we don’t smooth them out...

Last night I watched Milk.  Sean Penn plays Harvey Milk, the first openly gay man to be elected to public office in the US.  He begins first in rage and becomes an activist.. and slowly he shifts to play the system, to play the people and to show that his cause extends beyond one minority but to all of those who are not able to fully exercise their rights.. as per the Constitution.    At one moment his opponent told him that it was all very well for him to have things to be against and complain about but he had to stand FOR something.. Like Martin Luther King, Milk was prepared to give his life for his cause and he did. Yet in the one year he was in office, he had his intent and focus yet was ever aware of the opposition and forces working against them. He was playing the moves to get his message out there.  And at the same time he found common links between many other groups of hippies, seniors, even the Teamsters union... and he pulled them together to create a more humanly just system.

So there’s this fine line between the extremes of refusing to even acknowledge world events, living in bliss ninny la la land.  [you may ask ‘what does she mean by that?’.] and living in total fear and doomsday mode.   It seems to me that we all need this balance.   The people who roamed and existed with and on this land here were well aware of the dangers, they sensed the shifts and changes of the winds and seasons and predators as well as how to find the meat, where to build the lodge and what part of the stream to gather water from.    They just didn’t think about them all the time.    They had this flow, a feel for the movement, an ability to sniff and track a facility to acknowledge what is and ADAPT.

I think people need to be prodded to find out for themselves what’s going on, become aware, sense it from a remote position so that we can size up the next move. Like a chess player, aware of many options resulting from each move yet setting up to counteract the others moves.

And some people don’t want to wake up, and others do and get scared.  I do believe that we are all in some kind of varying level of asleepness and awakeness. We are fed and nurtured into beliefs about things we really need to investigate further to seek out the truth.   Some of us just close down the door and bury our heads in the sand. And each of us has to some degree and in our own personal way begun to wake up to the reality of the world... the systems, the illusions, the addictions, the consume, discard, don’t care that is part of how people are when they are asleep to the fact that we are all ONE system and capable of superb symbiosis...

As events, natural, man made, quantum generated take hold and run their course and as we notice how quickly things evolve compared to ten years ago, say, we are all reacting moment to moment...and sometimes we lose our sense of direction, self and other... You understand, I am sure, otherwise you wouldn’t be here that I am talking in varying degrees.  We are all evolving very quickly.  The information age has provided us access to so much data and virtual real-time experiences... It has connected people across the universe, weaving a diverse and ever thickening and complex web being generated by people with focus... both on maintaining the systems as they are and on finding a new way of living in this world...thought memes are crisscrossing, connecting.. and we direct what goes into those thoughts...

The fine line exists between being ready and being paranoid.... It might be fine to stock up with items.   important to our basic needs.. we may lose our electricity at times or find food shortages. Growing some measure of food at home and aving candles and a place to light a fire or other means to heat and feed is just common sense..and learning it is fun too!

This can happen but instead of being afraid, with this awareness of one potential, we can prepare ourselves, and set in motion a different potential by learning to ADAPT and EVOLVE.   It makes sense to me that I have storage for water [when the pipes froze last winter we were waterless!] It makes sense to have supplies of staples, wellness remedies, health drinks, spices herbs and staples that will allow me to create delicious meals with very little bought from the shops and lots of flavor and texture. It makes sense to me to have huge piles of wood stacked up because collecting wood in the snow is tough!...And if we have to we will...

For me knowing that we will be able to live healthily as we focus our energy on shifting and flowing in the moment, being ready and anticipatory, yet calm...Fear tingles a little but it serves as an adrenalin generator in the right quantities to propel us forward...Energy changes in the moment when we know what we’re emitting and thus being and we can shift ourselves in that moment.. when we are AWARE.

I see great hope.  I see a future where the energy of those who care for all life as part of the whole and recognize their part in CREATING A NEW UNIVERSE...will have seeped into the very groundswell..surging upwards to feed new life... new attitudes... new ways of being in this world.   A place where we have once again become pioneers and stepped into the wilderness and tangled undergrowth and debris of what was and blazed a trail...where we have found a way to adapt ourselves no matter what we have or where we are...and we have learned to live in harmonic peace with all that is... and where balance is a natural course of life, and where seasons are accepted and blessed .. a life where we have truly returned to the earth.   That’s my dream... in outline...and you will have yours...

That we can stand on the edge of our safety net and find a way to know and trust that if we are true and in integrity in our intent  is wow.  And when it is fired by a desire to be part of the emergence and evolution, we can influence the planet in subtle and sometimes obvious ways... so that we evolve humanity towards becoming a caring, sharing, loving, selfless, community minded, generative, giving, creative, ecological, greater good focused human wonder...

As I write this the Thanksgiving turkey gifted to us by Jim is in the oven and I’m making ‘dressing’ and the sun is blazing across the fields, through the trees and melting the crisp air into warmth, I am considering and basking in the bounties that come from simply being and following our intuition, going about our experience, seizing moments from the air and going with the flow... deepening connections... just because it’s the feel-right thing to do.. 

We have spent three days barnbusting as we call it.. breaking down an old barn for wood.   It’s a long story and for another time... but suffice it to say that we have found ourselves planted into the soil and growing with help and tender nurturing.. and through connecting...and just flowing.... people emerge.. things appear... and we have wood piled for the winter and a divine wood stove that heats the entire house..

And at the same time there’s always this background context of the rumblings... the native Americans didn’t ignore the sounds they heard from afar of lightening or thunder or disturbances in the forest... they were always alert to them... aware and ready to react... prepared.. like Castaneda’s warrior...

So I will continue to alert people to political manipulations, to injustices, to dangers in food and chemicals, at the same time as I alert them to what’s possible... what alternatives are available and nudge them towards adaptation...

I am beginning to find the balance, noticing how when I’ve focused too much on what is going on and which is injust or greedy or any other thing I might judge it to be, I absorb that energy, it reflects back to me and reflects from me.. and it’s a case of finding the door to open out again... aware, yet not afraid...prepared and ready to ADAPT.. that’s what it’s about.. ALIGN, ADAPT, ALIGN, ADAPT...and breathe..

So I’m grateful for the piles of wood we have to keep us warm all winter and I’m grateful for the Turkey and I’m grateful for the people who have helped us and whom we have been able to help.. and I’m grateful to stand in this air and breathe the energy of the forest, to hear the orchestra of nature and to breathe the pine wood fumes, the damp grass, and the fungus smell of leaves and damp and mulched earth..and I’m grateful for my companion and partner and Suki the cat and Lush Kale and Mustard leaves in the garden and so much more.    How can I not be grateful for every moment.. even the one where I burned the bread cubes.. and always of being able to feel this and transmit it in an instant...

So happy thanksgiving for the bounty of life delivered in so many ways..

Let us ensure that we clear the tangled overgrowth, turn the soil and plant new seeds of hope that may not mature until we are long gone from this physical form..but our energy lingers on and mingles now with the world entering what we label the future... and co-alchemising anything.... it’s in the air... it’s happening already...and there are a lot of people out there who need help and who are willing to offer help...and to energise ourselves into a breave new world... sound trumpets, play music... in whatever forms your imagination takes you...

With love
