Blue Moon August 31st: The Master Maker

In keeping with my morning tradition, I pulled a Wisdom of Avalon Oracle card today: The Merlin. This card emphasizes magick and support in forging dreams into reality. On a Blue Moon (the second full moon of the month) approaching the third third of 2012, a little extra magick seems like a wonderful thing, indeed.

But that’s not all. Apparently, the Faery Realm wanted to share some comments, too, in this case via Brian Froud and Jessica MacBeth’s The Faeries’ Oracle deck. I’ve learned not to argue with the fay, since they are most persistent creatures! Here’s what they had to say about the August 31st Blue Moon:

“Card 22 ~ The Master Maker

“Skill, Craftsmanship, Magician, Moral strength, Invention

“The Master Maker is the master of the forge, upon which we create our futures and forge our own souls. He sees the world beyond the otherworld, the world of first causes. Through his magic, he brings them into his own world of Faery. From his world, these concepts trickle down into our own, through dreams and visions picked up by artists and craftsmen everywhere. Be he makes the first, the original. He is the great inventor, and the sign above his door reads: Practical Problems Solved Here.

“He sings as he works, and, as in all faery magic, his song does as much to shape objects as do the blows of his hammer … The master of fire, air, earth, and water, he adds the faery element of moonlight to everything he creates. He would be the first to tell you that superb craftsmanship, however magical, is hard work — joyful and energizing hard work, but always challenging. As the Master Maker reminds us, ‘No job is too small to do beautifully.’ …

“Bringing ideas into excellently crafted reality can only be done when we, like the Master Maker, are willing to plan meticulously, begin carefully, and persevere through difficulties, learning still more of our craft as we work. Craftsmanship is also a labor of love. We must be willing to tackle difficult challenges and have a determination to surpass previous achievements. …

“We grow more like the Master Maker each time we do the best we can — and then stretch ourselves to do a little better than that.

“… This card speaks of long-lasting achievement, creative problem solving, and confident action. It may suggest cooperation with others, especially form a position of responsibility, or of teaching one’s craft to others. Success comes from practical application of traditional principles, in life and in work.” ~excerpted from The Faeries’ Oracle, one of my favorite decks of all time 🙂

My take? The elementals continue to offer their partnership with humans willing to support the Earth and heal Nature. (I was at 444 words just as I planned to type how Faeries are Earth angels. According to Doreen Virtue “444 — Thousands of angels surround you at this moment, loving and supporting you. You have a very strong and clear connection with the angelic realm, and are an Earth angel yourself. You have nothing to fear — all is well.” Love the synchronicity, but back to messages from the Faery Realm!) They want to help us heal the Earth, which will have side benefits of healing humans and faeries.

We can return to a world of beauty, organic and wild foods, harmonious living with all creatures and the environment, and a deep connection to the Source of all abundance. Full Moons amplify intentions. On this special Blue Moon, take a few moments to remember who you are — a being intimately connected with everyone and everything in the Universe. Empower the dream of a healed planet and healed lives, and then commit to doing your best to support that manifestation into our realm. We have the support of other realms in our endeavors. We can work and play together for the Highest Good of All. When we do this, by beautifying ourselves and our own environment step by dedicated step, we will see that dreamworld made manifest.

One More Day for August Specials

“I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting station, through which God speaks to us every hour, if we will only tune in.”

AUGUST SPECIALS

Half-Hour Rune Readings for $77

Most people think of Runes as a form of divination, and yes, this is true. But Runes are also building blocks of creation, potent packets of energy and light that can be used to amplify intentions or deepen healing. This half-hour Rune Reading will draw upon my personal study and use of Runes, looking at various Runic, energy healing and manifestation traditions to help you find greater clarity and support for the challenges you face right now. This special can be doubled for the full hour.

The 45-Minute Raph Session is back by popular request. Most local Madison and Milwaukee area clients know I offer private “Raph” (pronounced “Rawf”), aka Archangel Raphael Sessions, but people from further away have been asking if I can do these over the phone as well. Yes, yes, yes! I have worked closely with Archangel Raphael since researching my honors thesis in 1994. Although AA Raphael always advises me in Medical Intuitive and other sessions, I had never thought to try channeling until it happened spontaneously in January 2011.

Raph has an accent, a gentle and wry sense of humor, and strongly healing, loving and supportive presence. Since January 2011, I’ve offered many private channeled sessions as well as public events. As a healer, Raph’s primary intent is to connect with individuals who wish to embrace their own healing and freedom on all levels. As individuals seek, find, love, and move beyond their own blocks and blinders, they free others to do so, too. Raph welcomes questions about your personal life or global issues.

$133 for 45-Minutes, in-person in Madison or by phone. (Yahoo Instant Messenger sessions are not available for channeled sessions.)

August Specials are valid if prepaid by 8/31/2012, but they can be scheduled after this date.

Feel Inside (And Stuff Like That)

After yesterday’s scientific videos, today’s selection is more for fun. Flight of the Conchords interviewed school children for ideas about how to write a song to raise money for sick kids. They then combined exact quotes and ideas from the children into this exuberantly goofy song that tugs on your heartstrings and really makes a lot more sense than most of ye olde 3Dality. 😉

David and I have been having so much fun with this song all day that I thought I’d share. Guaranteed to make you smile at least once and have your heart giggling by the end!

Interviews followed by the song:

The lyrics incorporate interviews with school kids that were recorded before they wrote the track.
The song, produced by the legendary Printz Board, was recorded at Roundhead Studios in Auckland, New Zealand and features numerous New Zealand artists.”

Joe Dispenza: The Three Brains That Allow Us to Go from Thinking to Doing to Being

In keeping with today’s theme of biology and belief, here’s another fabulous video. Thanks to my friend Ingrid for digging up this little gem. Joe Dispenza talks about how synapses wire and rewire as we learn, then apply, then become new skills, thoughts and beliefs. He mentions creating a holographic brain, which is exactly what I encourage and help other brain injury survivors to do for themselves. You don’t need your own brain injury to benefit from watching this video, though. What Joe shares applies to all of us in our everyday lives as well as in the radical evolution birthing in and through the potent 2012 portal.

You Can Heal Yourself: The Biology of Belief

Thanks, Caro!

Dr. Wayne Dyer & Dr. Bruce Lipton offer a fascinating and empowering discussion of the Biology of Belief and how perception alters environment and biology. Metaphysicians have long known this, but now science supports the claim: you can heal yourself.

“Your body has these reserve cells and … they will repair or replace anything that your attention is focused on. … You’re not limited by your genes. You’re limited, if anything, by your perception and your belief about the world that you live in because that’s the information that’s going in and affecting the genes.” ~Bruce Lipton

A Fork in the Road

“There is a road from the eye to heart that does not go through the intellect.” ~Gilbert K. Chesterton

“Hope is like a road in the country; there was never a road, but when many people walk on it, the road comes into existence.” ~Lin Yutang

“Not all who wander are lost.” ~J.R.R. Tolkien

Where are you wandering? Which path do you choose?

“If you overesteem great men,
people become powerless.
If you overvalue possessions,
people begin to steal.

“The Master leads
by emptying people’s minds
and filling their cores,
by weakening their ambition
and toughening their resolve.
He helps people lose everything
they know, everything they desire,
and creates confusion
in those who think that they know.

“Practice not-doing,
and everything will fall into place.” ~Tao Te Ching

Oracle Report ~ Saturday August 25 – Sunday August 26 2012

Mists of Avalon? I had to post this one. It’s particularly timely after some Glastonbury Tor synchronicities yesterday with a client and later with Angels of Atlantis cards. Thanks to Gillian for the link.

Oracle Report | First Quarter Moon Phase – Moon in Sagittarius

This weekend’s energy is like walking through the mists of Avalon. There is a predominance of mutable and watery astrological energy, which heightens intuition and creativity, as well as strengthening links with the spirit realm. It is wonderfully calming if you are one who goes with the flow, but if you are trying to structure or control things, it will cause emotional difficulties.

The best bet is to be on a mental vacation this weekend because the energy favors escapism. Be careful of overindulging in anything (especially alcohol) because it is easy to get lost.

This weekend’s energy is highly emotional. Feelings will run the gamut and can spill out like water. But as we span the emotional spectrum, the spectrum of the colors of the rainbow are forming. The planet is using this energy to reform and correct things (situations in our lives). Last month was the Turning Point and this month is The Reformation.

We are witnessing a great master painting her masterpiece. The keyword is “painting” – as a verb, meaning that it is in process. It can be unsettling when we want things settled. But we want the best possible outcome so we must float along while it’s happening. Resistance is futile this weekend, so continue to let go and let Gaia and don’t force anything.

What Are You Watering?

Your imagination plants seeds and grows realities. Which seeds and realities are you watering? Do you like what’s growing in your life? If not, then take some time today to tend your inner garden. Fertilize your dreams with the rich compost of things that no longer serve. Pour your emotions (water) over your favorite seeds and nurture them to maturity. Green is the color of gardens, Nature, your heart chakra, love and healing. Just for today, go green. Let yourself flow!

West Nile: They’re Lying to You Again

Thanks, Lucas! Couldn’t have said this better myself. Yep, it’s a real eye-roller, just like it was in 2004 when I lived in Mesa, AZ during the supposed “epidemic” there. Please don’t believe everything that the CDC or media tells you.

These are the same people who claim vaccines will save your life, even though the US government has been secretly buying off families of vaccine injured kids to keep their mouths shut. We live in a period in which even Merck virologists admit to vaccine fraud. Follow the money, or else just choose health, wholeness and freedom.

Jon Rappoport – West Nile – They’re Lying To You Again – 23 August 2012

The government PR machine has swung into high gear promoting West Nile disease. It’s a “national outbreak.” 1138 cases in 38 states. 41 deaths. Planes are spraying toxic aerial pesticides.

Never mind that the US Centers for Disease Control claims 36,000 people die every year from ordinary seasonal flu—and there are no announcements of an “epidemic” or an “outbreak.” Never mind that the World Health Organization (WHO) claims between 250,000 and 500,000 people die every year from ordinary seasonal flu—and this isn’t called an “epidemic” or an “outbreak.”

If you added up the death count from all the hyped and predicted epidemics of the last decade, including West Nile, SARS, bird flu, weaponized smallpox, and Swine Flu, the total would come to about one year of deaths in the US from ordinary flu.

But who cares about facts? What’s important is how much fear can be generated. That’s the statistic that counts, when you’re talking about the CDC or WHO.

And when it comes to the public, it seems that some people feel a morbid attraction for viruses. Every time a new one is announced, they rub their hands together and say, “This is the big one! It’s going to spread like wildfire!”

Other people, involved in natural health, who reject huge amounts conventional medical wisdom, nonetheless make the mistake of buying the virus of the moment. They automatically accept it as real and then figure out how to treat it naturally. That can be a big mistake.

Have researchers ever actually isolated (found) the West Nile virus? You should be asking that question.

You should always question what the CDC tells you.

The deepest form of medical-research chicanery comes when scientists claim they’ve found a new virus and they haven’t. They haven’t nailed it down. They say they have, but that’s not true.

People have a hard time fathoming this. They will accept the fact that a medical drug touted as miraculous really causes heart attacks, strokes, and death, but for some reason The Virus is sacred territory. “Scientists would never lie about that.” Really? Why not?

Do you think discovering a new virus is like dipping a tweezer into a dish of liquid and picking out a little critter who is shaking his legs? And therefore, nobody can lie about it, because it’s either there or not? No, that’s not the way it works.

A new virus is discovered by taking a tissue sample suspected of harboring it; then that sample must be transferred to a fine filter that will trap the virus. That’s how the initial all-important isolation process is begun.

In the case of West Nile, this was attempted in 1999. It was called a success, but there was a major problem. As I stated in a previous article:

Researchers claim the West Nile virus is 0.04 micrometers. At the same time, they admit that the original fishing expedition for the virus employed filters that were 0.22 micrometers. The obvious conclusion? The filter was too porous. It was nearly six times larger than the virus.

http://abcnews.go.com/Health/story?id=117258&page=4

In fact, Robert McLean, director of the National Wildlife Center of the US Geological Survey, told ABC’s Nick Regush, “We don’t have a purified form of the [West Nile] virus.”

A stunning admission.

The late ABC reporter, Regush, followed up on McLean’s pronouncement with this: “I find no evidence anywhere in the scientific literature that the rules of virus purification and isolation were thoroughly followed [in the case of the West Nile virus].”

People respond to these assertions with an accusatory tone: “Then what’s making people sick? Why are people dying?”

People getting sick and dying doesn’t necessarily have a connection to why health authorities are telling you they’re dying.

If a newspaper reported that a hurricane in Missouri killed 12 people, and then you discovered there had been no hurricane, would you insist on pretending there was, because 12 people died? No, of course not. You would assume the people died for other reasons.

It’s the same situation with West Nile. People get sick and die all the time. If the virus that supposedly is causing an outbreak of illness has never been found, you look for other causes.

Again, from my previous article:

There are some good reasons people in the Dallas area are getting sick. These reasons have nothing to do with “West Nile.”

A decade ago, independent journalist, Jim West, launched an original investigation into the so-called “West Nile epidemic” in New York City.

http://www.naturalhorse.com/archive/volume4/Issue6/article_8.php

West correlated clusters of human and bird “West Nile” cases with several factors; among them, nearby polluting oil refineries, other air pollution (certainly exacerbated by hot summer weather), and the presence of toxic MTBE, an additive that makes gasoline in cars burn cleaner.

There are listings for at least eight refineries in the Dallas area. There are also reports of increased air pollution coming from natural gas production in the Barnett Shale. The 2012 summer has been hot. As of of the year 2000, Texas refineries were producing 75% of all the MTBE in the United States.

And since this has been a very hot and dry summer in other areas of the US, high-air-pollution locales have intensified.

Am I saying that the never-isolated “West Nile virus” might be functioning as a cover story, to conceal what is really making people sick? Absolutely.

As an illustration, the medical history of the African continent is replete with such cover stories. Over and over, germs have been heralded as the cause of people dying in great numbers.

Centuries-old causes of ongoing death in Africa were intentionally overlooked: contaminated water supplies; horrible sanitation; overcrowding; generation-to-generation malnutrition and starvation; stolen farm land.

Most Americans automatically assume the arrival of western doctors with drugs and vaccines is a good sign for Africa. Nothing could be further from the truth. The doctors are sent there to cover up the truth.

Why? Because many interested parties, powerful players inside and outside of Africa, want the true and persisting causes of illness and death to remain, in order to keep the population weak and controllable. It’s easy to hide this agenda by advertising a fake disease-cause and a fake medical remedy. Medical intervention will never cure what’s ailing Africa. If you walked through a swamp of filthy contaminated water every day on your way to work, do you think a course of antibiotics would keep you healthy?

Here in America, when various toxic environmental causes of illness bring people down, there needs to be a cover story as well. The most believable cover is The Virus. It works. People stand up and salute it. They’re saluting it now in Dallas and other places.

I don’t care how many pictures of how many mosquitoes are adorning television screens and newspapers. “Oh, the mosquito carries the West Nile virus!” Really? Even if no one ever found such a virus?

Buy the virus story if you want to. Everyone has that freedom. But science is supposed to be about proof, and in the case of West Nile, it’s all supposition and presumption and lying.

The medical PR machine will grind on. New stories will appear. “The worst summer ever.” “New deaths from West Nile.” “More mosquitoes carrying the deadly West Nile virus found.” “The very young and elderly at greatest risk.” “Medical experts try to discover why West Nile returned with a fury.”

How many people will give in at each new barrage of propaganda and accept the virus story?

Remember Swine Flu? The whole planet was going to go down. In the end, WHO announced the total global death figure as 20,000. Then, in a mindless burst of revisionism this year, the total was changed to 580,000.

Here’s a number for you. Three maniacal spokespeople from the CDC, backed by five major television networks, can brainwash the public about a virus in seven days.

Medical Intuitive FAQ: Can I Have a Session for Someone Else?

Well meaning friends and family members often ask me questions about other people in their lives who would not themselves be inclined to schedule their own Medical Intuitive or Soul Reading; however, I’ve noticed a major uptick in this trend during the past 24 hours. Because I know this issue comes up during sessions and emailed inquiries, I thought I’d post my general policy here.

My parameters for doing a session for a person through someone else include at least one of the following:

a) Expressed permission from that family member or friend to discuss whatever comes up.

b) That person would need to be a child or otherwise unable to express themselves or participate in a session (i.e. in a coma, autistic, no use of vocal cords, etc.).

c) I can do a session for you, but we would focus primarily on helping to support you in dealing with the family member or friend in question. I would not simply provide you with their reading.

d) In the case of past life or soul readings, we can discuss that person’s history and issues as they pertain to your particular relationship in this or other lifetimes you have shared together. I will not provide their comprehensive past life reading and put together soul patterns or tell you someone else’s life path without their permission — except to the extent that those patterns or life path directly involve you (or your soul in shared previous lifetimes).

It’s an ethical fine line that I don’t feel right divulging someone’s (often very private, intimate) past life or medical root causes to other people, even well meaning family members, without permission. Each person has his or her own process, and illnesses and challenges can serve them in ways that may not appear clear to outside observers. To the extent that such information directly helps the process of whomever I’m doing the session with, I will share the information. Satisfying curiosity or codependent tendencies is not the same as providing direct support for your own process as it relates to another person.

Having your own session can help in healing parts of yourself and your relationship with the other person. In some cases such healing opens the door for that person to accept the challenge of having his or her own session, but that decision needs to come from a place of taking personal responsibility for one’s own health and experience. Again, this is different than having another person find the answers to questions that person may be too afraid to ask. Since people mirror to one another, having sick or disabled people in your life likely brings messages for you, independent of whether or not they choose to heal.

Intense energies continue to flood our planet, offering lots of people quite pressing choices about whether to embrace or resist the new energies. Those who continue to resist are having major physical and emotional symptoms, and most are considering exiting the body. Those who have interest and openness to the changes stand to experience life in a richer, easier, more flowing and fulfilling way. We all have support on this journey, and that support can come in a variety of forms, including intuitive sessions, angelic help, cooperation with the elementals, and general empowerment of bodies, hopes and dreams. How and if people choose to accept the incoming support remains a wild card.

I’ll leave you with two of my favorite quotes, which both apply here:

“We must be willing to get rid of the life we planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us.” ~Joseph Campbell

“We must become the change we want to see.” ~ Mahatma Ghandi
