Conscious Living on Empower Radio

Lights in the Dark -- Contactees: Mike Oram

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Sat, 09 May 2015 02:21:00 +0000

Each day - an adventure in being. Extraordinary possibilities, creation presents. Answers are relative. Curiosity liberates. Mind on fire. Soul of wonder. Evolution in progress. Welcome to Conscious Ascension.

I have had several opportunities to interview Mary Rodwell about her work with Contactees. The latest of those is in the Archives on Empower Radio. We talk about Star Children and the upgrades to consciousness.

Mary, by now, has documented accounts from some 3 thousand individuals who have reported their encounters. Here is her 2014 video presentation with an overview.

One of the most visible and vocal of those she mentions is Mike Oram. His experiences began in childhood and he has published books and written articles to offer follow-up perspectives and include new information. I love the cartoon perspective he offers up in Ben.

He presented "Does It Rain In Other Dimensions?" at the Extraterrestrial Communication Conference, 2012, held at the Static Gallery in Liverpool.

These experiences and Mike's efforts to share his perspective - though more detailed and extensive - resonate for me.

The short list: I have personally experienced time shifting, telepathic contact, an electrical encounter that burned my eyes, another one that made me cry as a warning to encourage me to leave a certain space, unexplained healing, a presence in my room that spoke in a mechanical voice, a circular-red-and-green-lighted-hovering-object in the bedroom (I reported that one to MUFON in 2013.).

When I tried to focus to better set the image in my memory, it immediately went through the solid wall and hovered for a moment outside the window before vanishing.

My experiences are varied (many are also in non-threatening dream environments) and subtle but I have been told I am being given contact in a way that I will accept and that will help me to gradually acclimate to their presence.

I did not pursue this interaction, it was a gradual process and (in the early 90's) I chose to categorize it among dreams and altered states of awareness. They have stated they do not - under any circumstances - wish to frighten me/us. In some very real physical sense we are not quite compatible to their energy/vibration and that can cause discomfort, nausea, muscle pains, and the like. (Same thing happens with ghosts.)

So the process now seems to be a global expansion of contact events and enhancement of etheric energy to better prepare those in this dimension, on this sphere of awareness less distress in advance of eventual, mass contact.

My channeled content for Talking to Nightlights - when I asked The (non-corporeal being) Energy for a name - gave me a source that presents as a collective: Messengers of Light. I was advised by them at the outset to avoid jumping to conclusions or trying to define the source of the information until I became better acquainted and schooled in the wide variety of options in/of non-corporeal/telepathic/channeled contact. The term they prefer is Trans-dimensional.

At this time it is clear that much of what has long been designated "paranormal" also has quite a lot in common with UFO sightings and ET contact. There are too many similarities to be discounted. When I experience contact, there are several physical indicators that help me to identify it as such.

To counter that, the presence of my nightlight energy is constant and there is no discomfort with that. Each has his own method of determining resonance or validating reality and those indicators do need to be ingrained via personal experience.

In 1998, I entered into a decade long process of intentional energy shifting and that may also have contributed to increased tolerance. My experience involved a tremendous amount of self-initiated consciousnesses expansion and energy balancing, a process that doesn't have a designated conclusion or predetermined outcome.

My guides offer ongoing support and interactive engagement. Popping me out of body was a very effective method of demonstrating their influence. Inducing a transformative bliss state was another successful tactic. Those acts however, are given as carrots to encourage my pursuit of conscious awakening and ascension. I am responsible for continuing to do my homework.

7 Keys to expanding and upgrading consciousness include meditation, emotional self-healing, deprogramming social constructs designed to distract one from individual pursuit of mind/awareness expansion, understanding fear, eliminating negative thought patterns, increasing empathy, activating telepathy.

Conscious Ascension: When operating within the manifest realm, one learns to understand how attention goes where mind flows. One can upgrade creation via infusion of fluid light essence to facilitate multidimensional awareness in solid state.

The power to transcend this particular dimension is and always has been within. Like Dorothy
in The Wizard of Oz, as the mind flows, we remain home. The challenge is to wake up to intention and claim our innate presents as quantum creators. Know yourself.

That's where Trans-dimensionals excel.

Exploring Consciousness, UFO, Ghosts, NDE, OBE and Paranormal - Conscious Living on Empower Radio

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Mon, 02 Feb 2015 04:34:00 +0000

Conscious Living with Wendy Garrett is produced by Empower Radio and featured on empoweradio, iheart, itunes, stitcher and various independent youtube channels. Programs cover a wide range of Mind-Body-Spirit/Alternative Awareness/PSI topics, including: Consciousness, UFO, Metaphysics, Paranormal and Energy Medicine.

Ongoing personal experiences with extraordinary and unexplained seen/unseen phenomena underscore my belief in a world abundant with wonders we haven't yet begun to fathom.

Experiencers, via their unique encounters, give us glimpses and clues to what potentials creation has yet to reveal when we are willing to listen to the call of the muse and curious enough to table our fear and explore the unknown inner and outer limits of being.

And the answers are there, teasing us in quirks, quarks and fantastic anomalies.

My proof - and that is the whole point of this reality thing being very personal and unique to the individual experiencer - the light beside me goes off for a moment and then comes on again as I am composing this introduction, underscoring the "quirk" factor and the representation of the ever-present, unseen support in this adventure.

Thank you for your interest and thank for listening. I hope you enjoy the shows! - wendy ... and the nightlights ;)

Shows are daily at 9 pm central time - Join me for a world of wonder.

Conscious Living Schedule for 12/15/14

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Fri, 19 Dec 2014 05:32:00 +0000

Ever curious. There are things going on here that we haven't the slightest idea how to articulate yet we feel the connect, the energy shift, the vibe lift and the frequency amp up. We know something amazing is happening. That something stimulates a sense of anticipation and wonder, maybe even a bit of concern.

No matter what sense is triggered, change is underwritten into this scenario and change is coming. Trust you are where you need to be, resources will be provided when needed and information offered in perfect time. All flows in divine form.

It's nice to be able to offer a weekly rundown of Conscious Living shows now filed in the archives. If you do miss the nightly airing at 9pm central time (USA), then search the title and you'll find the episode on the Empower site or on iheartradio or itunes.

Most of the time, I will try to give you a cheat sheet like this, but when I don't there will be a link on the Empower site to find out what is running. The new show this week is Sonja Grace. We've spoken before but it's nice to reconnect.

Time flew!! This is the final new show for 2014. I'll take a break for the holiday and resume with a new show after the 1st. Lots of fun stuff to look forward to. I am booked through April.

DECEMBER 15 (MONDAY): "The Virtual Reality Lab" with Ross Holcomb. One of my favorite sources for information on Crop Circles, here's a vid with background on a tour. Here's the Ancient Megalithic Structure Top Ten Most Intriguing list Ross shared.

DECEMBER 16 (TUESDAY): How about this for a hobby? Edd Edwards likes to play with lightning. Spend a few minutes with Edd and find out how you can recharge your own energy system or connect with Edd and let him give you a "tune up".

DECEMBER 17 (WEDNESDAY): New Interview with Mystic Healer Sonja Grace. Becoming an Earth Angel.

DECEMBER 18 (THURSDAY): When the 4 men in robes visited Penny Kelly in the 80s, they gave her some insights about our future. Some of it, pretty grim stuff, has actually come to pass. They also shared what we need to do to set a course correction to avoid a worst case scenario. More info from Penny's website:

[Robes – A Book of Coming Changes is a book of global dimensions. In 1980, a group of little monk-like men in brown robes began to visit Penny Kelly, always asking her to “look at some pictures.” Over the next year and a half, the little men visited her regularly, each time showing her pictures of the future and emphasizing that humans needed to take responsibility for the world they were creating. This is the story of what she was shown, and an amazing commentary on the ongoing evolution of the human being.

From the blog Robes Excerpt #2:

“Each individual is a unique filter of the frequencies that surround the human body/mind system. Each human brain is a radio receiver responding to the matrix of waves and energy flowing through and around it.

“The brain’s job is to help the human body respond appropriately to the ocean of frequencies it lives in, and be a tool by which you explore those frequencies and the possibilities within them. To do so is literally to explore the possibilities of the Self. The process is meant to be shared with others in the way you used to share when you were children by saying, ‘Hey, look what I found… Hey, look what I can do… You can probably do it too.’]

DECEMBER 19 (FRIDAY): "Kids in Spirit" with Hollister Rand: clairvoyant, clairaudient, and clairsentient medium, regular contributor to InfiniteQuest.com, the website launched by John Edward. Preview her book, I'm Not Dead, I'm Different.

DECEMBER 20 (SATURDAY): "Exploring Visions" - called to a location for the sole purpose of Divine Revelation. Is that what I was told to get me there? Nope. I was shown after I arrived - the second time. The first time was the carrot. What an extraordinary life this is. Talking to Nightlights.

Schedule - Conscious Living 12/8

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Mon, 08 Dec 2014 17:02:00 +0000

The work of art in creation: manifesting reality. Be mindful of your thoughts and note how that reflects in the language and words you use. Start noticing the subsequent events as they transpire, colors, imagery, encounters: people who are drawn to and/or away from you and the synchronicities will began to stand out in your environment.

You are the creator of your reality experience. Do it with purpose and intention and the results will astound you.

best wishes on your creations,
wendy & the nightlights

The shift also appears to be relaxing some of the rules we apply for manifesting our reality. Join us in conscious exploration!

NOVEMBER 21 (FRIDAY): "Alternate Realities" with Trish LeSage - What if your reality changed - right in front of you? People and places were somehow different ... Their memories and yours didn't match. Would you make the connection that you had traveled to a different time-line or a parallel universe?

NOVEMBER 22 (SATURDAY): "No Such Thing as Coincidence" with Wendy Garrett - No such thing as Coincidence – engaging Higher Awareness. Hemi-Sync as a tool for mind expansion. Rather than linear, consciousness connections are more likely to appear unrelated or random. We can learn how the dots connect when we open our minds to imprint a new energetic template for intentional creation and allow source to be multidimensional, rather than limited to the manifest plane.

Transmute, Transform, Transcend - The road to Self-Empowered

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Tue, 09 Sep 2014 02:04:00 +0000

"Nature loves courage. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up.

This is the trick. This is what all these teachers and philosophers who really counted, who really touched the alchemical gold, this is what they understood. This is the shamanic dance in the waterfall.

This is how magic is done. By hurling yourself into the abyss and discovering its a feather bed."
~ Terence McKenna

So - what might be a demonstration of courage? This Mongoose can show you -

You have within you the ability to create the life you desire.

The challenge is to believe in your creation ability and enhance your imagination to eliminate the gaps in the manifest plane. The most important obstacle you will ever overcome - even beyond fear: Doubt.

Homework: Eliminate Doubt.

And that's a start on the road to Fearless Self-Creation. No doubt.

Energy, Frequency and Crystals with Tina Erwin

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Tue, 24 Jun 2014 06:11:00 +0000

“Our exclusive dependence on rational thought and language has obscured our natural ability to sense the flow of energy.” - Ilchi Lee, Brain Wave Vibration: Getting Back Into the Rhythm of a Happy, Healthy Life

If you haven't heard the show, Tina Erwin had a lot to say about the power of crystal energy. She shared a few stories about some well known gems and talked about how some gems might be so high in frequency they would be impossible or, at the very, least create a challenge for anyone who might try to wear them.

Tina is a great guest, and I really enjoy talking with her. She'll be on again in the fall when her new book is ready to launch. Here's the link for our most recent interview and links to her videos and other blog entries are at the bottom of this post.

In an earlier interview, we talked about Ghosts and had an interesting challenge: the show stopped. What was the topic? We were talking about frequency and the connection dropped. It took several minutes to reestablish the link and what had been a live interview segued to a recorded show. And so it goes... Ghosts with Tina Erwin on Conscious Living.

Here is a post from her blog --

A Lesson in Frequency Part 1

The Bahia Emerald by Tina Erwin

This is a multi-part series on the frequency of certain stones. Sometimes winning the worst lottery in the world would be to own an outwardly gorgeous jewel, before discovering that you don’t have the correct frequency to actually own that jewel.

I love emeralds. I lived in Medellin, Colombia, one summer when I was in college, and I remember the thrill of shopping for emeralds on my extremely limited college student budget. However, in 1971 there will still bargains to be found. I learned all about the two most famous emerald mines, the Chivor and the Muzo.

The stones that come from the depths of the earth in these mines are a vibrant blue/green, so beautiful, so alive that it feels like a privilege to own one. Each mine has its own color signature. The clearer the stone, the deeper the blue/green the more valuable the stone and the more pronounced the ‘personality’ of each piece.

Emeralds are soft, (not unlike Tanzanite), so cutting and polishing them require great care, especially the extremely expensive large stones. The larger the stone, the more pronounced the ‘personality’ and the higher the frequency of the stone. It is the frequency of the stone that really tells the story. So let us talk for a moment about The Bahia Emerald.

The behemoth that is the Bahia Emerald was found in Bahia, Brazil in 2001. Bahia, Brazil is a tiny village in the northeast corner of Brazil inland from the Atlantic Ocean. Almost all quality emeralds come from Colombia, but not this one. This one was found in Brazil. Let’s take a moment and look at the staggering statistics that describe this stone:

- 24/01/12 – The 400 Million Dollar Bahia Emerald – Premiers on 29th Jan on NGC

-The stone and its granite matrix weigh in at 840 pounds.

-It has been valued at between $400-900,000,00 (yes that’s four -nine hundred million dollars.)

-The granite matrix of the stone contains the largest single emerald crystal ever found.

-The size is roughly 4’x4’x4’ making it the largest uncut emerald in the world.

-The estimated karat weight of the shards in the stone range from 180,000 to 1,900,000 karats!

-No one currently owns it despite numerous claims.

-It is presently housed in the Los Angeles County evidence locker, awaiting adjudication by a
Los Angeles County Judge if that is even possible!

Stay tuned for Part 2: The ownership saga of the stone.

The Extraordinary story and prophecies of Paul Dienach

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Fri, 16 May 2014 06:05:00 +0000

“...for he had acquired, as time went on, the firm conviction that any thought, even the most audacious, that any fiction, even the most insane, can one day materialize and see its fulfillment in space and time.” - Stefan Grabiński

I ran across this piece in 2013 and found it utterly fascinating. The gist is simple. It's based on a true story, one that requires us to accept some fantastical events that draw deeply from the realm of science fiction. Maybe the most fantastical thing is the time of the event: 1922.

The story: In 1922, after a year-long coma, Paul Dienach awoke and wrote down everything he could remember about his experience of living in his future incarnation as physicist Andreas Northam in the year 3906.

Lacking the confidence to allow his tale a public reveal, he held onto it and, before his passing, gave the manuscripts to one of his students (George Papahatzis) who became Dean at Panteion University, founded in Athens in 1927, and published the story in 1966.

That story is - The Valley of the Roses

Nassos (Athanasios Komianos) presented the Paul Dienach story at the Virginia Beach Friends of IANDS. Fortunately, he saw a post I had referencing information that was circulating about the story at that time and offered to share his notes to supply me with a more accurate account.

Nassos has permission from the publisher to present the Dienach story in detail. That information is available on a DVD and can be purchased through VBIANDS. For information, please call (757) 470-3697 or email Elana Viada at eviada@cox.net

In a very brief offering, here are details from those notes. After reviewing the material, it is incredibly mind boggling to know that the source manuscript for this information was compiled in 1922.

Overview: Introduction of the two main characters who are in fact the same man living in different timelines.

In May 1921 the Swiss teacher Paul Amadeus Dienach slipped in a rare state of consciousness, called narcolepsy or lethargic sleep for almost a year. When he recovered he came back with memories of another person (actually his future embodiment).

The physicist of the future (3905) had an accident involving an NDE and when he “recovered”, he had been possessed by the personality of our twentieth century teacher (or actually his own former persona).

The Love Story:

In essence, Nassos says Dienach’s story is the love story with the love of his life Anna.

The last time he met her: in their secret place by their village, close to a lake, they exchanged promises of eternal love and dedication. Anna was married without her consent to a wealthy man and died at a very young age.

Dienach met Sylvia in the 40^thcentury and recognized her as the reincarnation of Anna. It was then that they fell in love and concluded what had not been concluded in the 20^th century.

The most intriguing part of the story concerns information regarding the timeline. While in the future embodiment of the physicist who undergoes a near death experience, it is finally apparent that this man is indeed a personality from the 20^th century and they try to teach him what has happened in those 20 centuries.

That method is referred to as Reigen-Schwage -- special three-dimensional holographic chambers that are usually used as the basic means of teaching history.

Highlighting the 20^th and 21^st centuries:

The dominance of the European continent falls apart and after World War I the Americans gradually take over.

Emphasis is now given not in spiritual or intellectual matters but rather on technological and economic development with massive production of products and an affluence unprecedented in history.

And while the standard of living is greatly improved the cultural improvements are conversely proportional.

Low quality mass productions for the masses are distributed.

Classic education is abandoned in favor of technical and practical training.

During this dehumanizing period of the era of mechanization the way or treating workers even supervisors and managers was degrading and inhumane.

These people were always under pressure in a real frenzy led some people to psychic and mental diseases that even led to suicide.

In that era of the New World Order those totalitarian states were fighting over which tendency will govern the right, or the left in terms of social conditions.

In the human agent these people could only see numbers, productivity, power and profit. Their view of the world was anthropocentric, geocentric and had no value for the other living creatures.

People that were valued in this time…

Were not Goethe, Da Vinci, Dante, Pasteur, Einstein, or Wagner but instead they were other newly introduced Idols. Comedians, dancers, boxers, soccer players, ruthless Croesus's, escorts and ragged, unclean, unkempt, scruffy instrument players.

The Valley of the Roses is a fantastic adventure - offering a window into future timelines and the potential to glimpse an alternate reality in an entirely unanticipated and highly unconventional fashion.

Certainly, if one person can experience such a state, the word impossible no longer applies.

What if we could learn from some of the miss-steps from this story and create a better future than the one Dienach foresaw? Might it be the ultimate purpose for allowing that information a vehicle in the first place? Questions .. the story is a catalyst.

In The Valley of the Roses we are informed about dramatic realignment and world change through the years up to 3905 -- And that information is what Nassos shares in his *DVD.

Prophetic? The 20th and 21st centuries are a bit too close for comfort.

He who knows the future can change history.
Or can he?

Time out -- updating the About Me

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Thu, 15 May 2014 02:11:00 +0000

Thank you for finding/following my blog. Here's a quickie update. If you like the blog - there is an entire library of shows to check out featuring more of this content on Empower Radio.

The Bio -

Conscious Living is on Empower Radio, iheartradio and itunes. My focus is metaphysics, consciousness, energy healing, transcendent experiences and other sorts of life adventures.

I am not a skeptic. I continue to experience paranormal/unexplainable events. My nightlight interaction is 24/7 wherever I go. This Energy interaction is not me. The Energy is a separate entity and that is another topic. I address it in Talking to Nightlights.

Reality is unique to the individual - and multidimensional.

Once one has had this type of energetic shift, it becomes quite clear "reality" is beyond our ability to define. It took me at least 10 years to get a grip on all the changes my experience triggered and it continues to enhance my awareness. When we are engaged with our divine nature - we are limitless.

Talking to Nightlights - is the intro to how contact with the unseen energies of the nightlights began in 1997. Wonderfully beyond definition, it launched a steady stream of metaphysical adventure and became my rock for all things being connected. We are incredible in our potential.

My lights are ON. (Smile.)

Artist - Blogger - Intuitive - Mystic, Talk Host at Empower Radio: Conscious Living explores Metaphysics, Consciousness, Paranormal, UFO, Near Death, PSI, Alternative Healing and creative living topics.

Sample Guests: Dr. Eben Alexander, William Buhlman, Mary Rodwell, Master Sio, Laura Alden Kamm, Marta Williams, Leslie Kean, Kathleen Marden, Penny Kelly, Richard Gordon, PMH Atwater, Tina Erwin, Annie Kagan/The Afterlife of Billy Fingers, Lori Toye and Eva Herr. Energy Healer Edd Edwards - an enigma. Some have reported results in listening to the program. Becki Hawkins shares eye opening NDEs from her 30 years of hospice work.

My Presentations include Everyday PSI, Spirit Guides, Channeling, Intuitive Readings,
Intervention for ghosts/Haunted houses, and Animal Communication (I do occasional work with a farrier to assist in horse care).

One of the fun events I have been doing for the past few years is the Ghost Stories of Weston (Spring and Fall events) -- Ghosts are everywhere .. but there are more elements in the unseen realms that are vying for our awareness. Not everything that goes bump in the night, walks the halls unseen, plays with the electricity or rattles windows and doors is a ghost. We have to keep asking better questions, explore beyond our "knowns" and continue to upgrade our answers.

There are beings among us who would like to encourage that activity. When you do the work - they connect with you.

A few words for Hemingway the Turtle

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Sun, 11 May 2014 12:00:00 +0000

"An animal's eyes have the power to speak a great language." ~ Martin Buber -

Totally out of the blue, I got a lesson on Red-Eared Slider Turtles.

We met Hemingway on a recent trip to the Ozarks. Hemingway is the resident pet and greeter at a book and toy store and he loves his job. What does he love?

Plain and simple: Hemingway loves being the center of attention.

How did he get this cushy gig? We asked the folks behind the counter who told us he actually started out thinking he was a dog. Named Fido, he palled around with several canines before finding a home at the store.

When I connected with Hemingway, I asked if he liked his home? At first he didn't respond but after a few seconds he sensed me and gazed in my direction. He replied, very surprised. "You are talking to me? No one ever talks to me."

I rephrased my question and asked if he liked his space. I projected my thought to him and let him know I would try to hear him and, yes, I was talking to him. He said he yes, liked his space and told me there were some who fed him more than others. I asked how he came to the story and he told me he ran away and they caught him.

I ended the conversation at that point and walked away to shop.

We came back to check out and started talking about the turtle and the comment was made that he might be better in the bigger tank at Bass Pro. I suggested having an Animal Communicator connect with Hemingway to ask him about himself. The response was simply to know what food he liked.

So I asked him. We thought together for a moment and he gave me an image of flakes or dry stuff it seemed to be a shrimp flavor. YES. He likes the shrimp food. They hadn't given him any recently.

What happened then is how it helped us to see that he was an active participant in the exchange. Hemingway became animated. He knew I was trying to help and moved from the perch he had been sitting on to swim directly in front of me and then quickly returned to the perch and look pointedly at the two women standing behind his tank as I spoke for him and said he liked "gummy worms." It made no sense to me but they immediately responded. Yes, he gets worms in his diet.

As we spoke, he was directing his actions toward them, moving his head to nod at each one, saying - "Do you hear this? Are you listening. She is telling you what I said."

His behavior at this point was in direct contrast to the activity he exhibited earlier when we came into the store. Before we began talking with the clerks, he had been quietly sitting on the floating station in his tank.

At the mention of who feeds him more, one person admitted to forgetting on occasion. He didn't have anything negative to say about that other than to say he knows the difference in his caregivers. Also explains the occasional missing shrimp, goldfish, etc. He eats when he is hungry and he considers it a game.

Is there anything special that he likes? He says he likes to run. (At that time, I didn't know he had been raised with dogs.) And the clerks told me he loves to entertain the children and swims for them. Hemingway agreed. He loves being the center of attention and seeing the activity is fun for him too. He feels the energy and the excitement.

Although the bigger space at Bass Pro might sound like a good alternative, if Hemingway can remain in his special area, he really does have a better life. He has been raised as a pet. The world he knows is interactive and humans are part of his tribe. He is given constant care, attention and interaction.

Losing that would be stressful and could actually make him depressed at the loss of his "friends". However, his keepers will have to determine the best home for Hemingway.

I wanted to help Hemingway so this is what we did. We donated a book on Red Slider turtles to offer tips on diet and habitat and health information. And we donated a tarp and fence to give Hemingway a chance to get out and romp around (like he used to with his canine pals) and for a playtime diversion and exercise.

He is a wonderful animal care advocate and mascot for the store and could be very helpful if he were incorporated into presentations or mini-sessions on pet care, environment and ecology. Giving him a job description and an employee status in the Public Relations and Marketing Department provides funding for his care and habitat.

I really enjoyed meeting Hemingway and kept my questions to a minimum. He does like his space and wants to stay there. The concern was that his tank would be too small. So we got the book to address some basic care issues.

Hemingway, rather than relocation to a place where he would lose his special status, could benefit from a few improvements. But that doesn't come from me. It's all in the turtle care book.

We learn so much when we connect with our animal kin. The presence of Hemingway, the red-eared slider turtle - who knows he is unique, gives us an incentive and an opportunity to learn more.

We can also better appreciate the importance of preserving an environment where nature can survive and humans and animals can thrive.

Animals appreciate it when we learn how to listen and hear them. I tried to talk to him and just let him choose to respond or not. When we did connect he requested that I maintain eye contact. He wanted to read my energy and reaction to determine for himself if I was really paying attention to him. Truly, a king in his world.

Only love -- and Reality

If you want to awaken all of humanity, then awaken all of yourself. if you want to eliminate the suffering in the world, then eliminate all that is dark and negative in yourself. Truly, the greatest gift you have to give is that of your own self-transformation. – Lao Tzu

And if that sounds like a small task, let me be one in a long line of self-transformers who can reassure you it isn't. Transformation is not for the easily distracted or the faint of heart. As soon as you determine to intend that your "reality" has a hidden door, the outer world loses hold on you. And that other magical realm begins to assert itself.

The world of competition for attention, possessions, titles and external trappings of self-worth gently fades from view as the real world - where nothing is what it seems - becomes incredibly dense and complex and effectively commands center stage.

Life becomes an extraordinary adventure that no tall tale can capture and even your own attempt at re-telling lacks the brilliant technicolor you have born witness to. It locks hands and stands right beside you and only those who are on the same transformational plane can see the world now laid bare before you. Some are in spirit and some are in the flesh.

The frustrating lack in the ability to translate, relate or share on broad scale, the phantasmagorical events that now brighten your days, nights, minutes and hours, simply makes it all the more compelling to live - even as the heightened sense that one develops fosters an ever increasing desire to let go of all elements of this fragile, superficial plane and merge with that other fantastical, timeless realm.

There is no match for it here - in this hollow, shadow state - but, then again, that's why our time in this package is temporary ... and thankfully so. When one truly discovers the multi-dimensional, mind blowing realms of eternity .. work here, is a walk in the park .. emotions are the crutch ... not the out clause. No waiting to find a perfect life to exhale, no worrying about who got caught and busted for daring to inhale an adventure of miscreation...

Upstaged by authentic creation, the identification with drama evaporates. No judgement is accurate or relevant. The big picture reveals significant details that were intentionally designed to remain missing for the duration of the exercise.

Here, we clear and quantify our vision and dust off the karmic flotsam from past adventures while setting our priorities straight. Love is the only game that is real. Everything else is simply an adventure in diversion. We rediscover that other incredible, technicolor realm is beyond dreaming. It is REAL.

Can you keep your focus on the prize while the game throws tremendous illusions designed to tether you to the manifest fabric, convince you to withhold your love and keep you from navigating your divine being?

What is real? The only real thing here is you. Everything else - no matter what illusion it presents - is window dressing created to assist you (however that may best apply for your particular state of being) in working yourself up to the next level: ascension.

Does it end? It has no beginning. You are the creator. Enjoy your time and remember: while you are learning how to play, you are also learning how to love. Kindness matters. Every being here is exactly like you .. engaged to create, within a very brief dot of eternity .. a vision where reality requires all to spend time in manifest form.

The day will come when all in present creation return to the same home and in that moment .. all are once again born in love.

Reality is relative. Only love is real.

When reality wears an invisible cloak ...

Before beginning a Hunt, it is wise to ask someone what you are looking for before you begin looking for it. - Winnie the Pooh

Connecting dots when one has no idea they exist.

I wake up and realize I have been following along in a lesson. The lesson was how the twitter feed changes with each additional post.

I know I am being guided and tune in to ask if my teacher is a spirit guide.

Correct.

Are you a spirit guide?

I am spirit. I am a guide.

Are you a guardian angel?

No wings.

Jack needs to go out to potty and I take him outside. It's warm and clear and beautiful. Spring finally fills the air. The Big Dipper is hanging bright and center stage -- over the house.

- Earlier, Gracie would not follow Andy back into the house and I had to go out to get her from the backyard. She told me: "I am afraid of "him".

- Andy asked if that meant him. No. She is seeing someone else.

Now that I am up, I realize I too saw someone but it was so subtle and innocuous I simply discarded it and continued to write at my computer. Andy had come to talk to me and I thought he was walking in front of me because I saw an invisible movement of someone walking in front of me when I turned my gaze. He went the other direction.

The description is to compare it to a ripple in the scene. It is like the movement of something behind a mirror when the surface warps. That is what I saw before my eyes focused and blocked it out. I also had a sense of movement. But --- this is the thing --- since there was no one and nothing in my sight view .... I changed my focus and stopped paying attention to it.

- That was the being Gracie says she is afraid of.

Earlier in the day, Andy and I had been talking about almost seeing things and not knowing what was seen but being aware there is something else there. The brain fills in the blanks and makes it hard to see something one has no basis for. One has to figure out a way to not know and not connect dots to see something entirely new. How does that happen? – the entire scenario is an example of how that plays out in my world. Moving forward back .. the dots connect ..

From my guides .. and my unseen guest at the moment:

[Now you understand why it is so difficult to teach. You have no idea we are here and we cannot be seen in your realm. However, we are present and you are doing the work. But we are not, as you say, Angels.

We are simply beings who have your best interest at heart. You have to improve your abilities to intuit and to keep your thoughts at a higher level. Much of what you (as social beings) do as a pass time is very detrimental to the whole of your species because … at best … it is idle thought.

To change that, more must become aware of the power and the beauty of the mind and how it can change and elevate your existence when you harness that awareness and begin to use it for creative endeavors other than how to get a million dollars in the lottery or the best chick on the block.

Many/Most are engaged in thought that is concerned with worry, fear and entertainment that involves the debasement of other humans. As such, there is little promise for an evolution…and more likelihood of a devolution.

And that is how it goes throughout the cycle. Some will move forward and others will simply cycle through again and again. Reveal there is more and that has the potential to increase the odds for an upgrade. There you have it … your homework.]

My nightlights are my reminder ... Some things are simply unknown. As we do the work and pay attention, our connections fall into place.

Constant, my goal - even as I go about my daily events in the world - to strive for higher ground ... and a lighter way of seeing/being in the world.

Reality Check - "We ARE here."

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Tue, 06 May 2014 16:59:00 +0000

“Well, I hate to admit it, but it is possible that there is (one) such a thing as telepathy and (two) that the CETI project's idea that we might communicate with extraterrestrial beings via telepathy is possibly a reasonable idea--if telepathy exists and if ETIs exist. Otherwise we are trying to communicate with someone who doesn't exist with a system which doesn't work.”
― Philip K. Dick, The Dark-Haired Girl

I hear "them". They tell me they are directly above the house and I can come outside and see them. This is how it goes with that telepathic thing. Some messages are crystal clear. Others require a bit of sleuthing.

Being in a curious disposition and wondering what I might see above my house, I give in and opt to leave the housework and writing and enjoy some sun. It's midday. Our weather has been a quirky mix of cold, cool and almost warm. Today feels more like one would expect for an early Spring day.

Ready to begin the exercise, I park myself compliantly in a lawn chair on the patio and stare at the blue sky above me. Wisps of clouds drift overhead. I scan the space in all directions but nothing seems unusual enough to catch my eye. Two butterflies, beautiful, bright yellow, flutter around, above and across the rooftop. Darting in uneven circles, they mirror one another.

I telepathically broadcast my thoughts to "them"... "Are you bugs? That's what you are because that is all I see out here. I see bugs who look like butterflies sailing in the air above me."

Agreeably, they answer, "Yes, we are bugs."

Okay, right. I was half joking and I don't quite buy my own comment so I keep looking.

Eventually, a plane flies above me, to the east. Interesting because it parallels the exact east-to-west direction I am stationed in my chair. Within a few more minutes, another plane traces that same path but from the opposite direction, headed west.

So I say to "them", "Okay, I get it: planes. You can make yourself appear to be planes. That's all I see above me now, planes."

Again "they" answer in that same agreeable fashion, "Yes, we are planes."

Right. Jokers. I mull it over. I was called outside to see bugs/butterflies and planes because that's all I have seen. "They" can be anything and I wouldn't know the difference. Is that what this is about? Maybe it is. I give up. It was interesting. It's always something new to learn in this little adventure. I go back inside and continue about my day. And there it ends.

No, it doesn't.

Later in the day, Andy is home and he calls out to me to meet him at the front door. He let the dogs outside and we haven't spoken more than a few words as he has just come home. He motions to me to stand where he has been standing, just outside the house at the front door. Then he tells me to look directly above us in the sky overhead.

Surprised at this interesting note of direction from him, I look up to see clear, blue sky. It's just before 8pm central time and the late day sun is still bright.

Alone in the space he has mapped out for me, I see it. Inquisitively, he prompts me, "Do you see?" Excitement sparkles in his eyes.

Wow. This is a complete surprise. Staring up at the sky, I offer my astonished reply. "I see a star," I say, as I look at him in stunned amazement. What has just happened?

"Good," he replies. "Sometimes I point stuff out and no one sees it."

I quickly run to the chair on the patio and look up from that vantage point. Sure enough, directly above me beams that fabulous, only star.

We both know it isn't a star. Wrong time of day and wrong position in the sky. (I checked again after dark to affirm there was nothing in that space.) Keeping tabs on that bright spec for about 20 minutes is easy: It doesn't move.

We rush around in a giddy frenzy, trying to get a picture and knowing we don't posses a camera capable of capturing an acceptable image to represent it. Frustration aside, we take pictures anyway and just let that be our proof. That's when I share with him my experience with "them" from earlier in the day. Curious, the timing.

The whole thing is amusing. This isn't our first encounter. Others have been just as perplexing and unpredictably synchronistic. I think we humans must be some sort of project for them.

Might it be that our growth and learning is key to a grand plan and they too are part of this equation? "They" - in my experience - are patient and persistent.

Today I learned I could believe anything I wanted of them and it would be true. Or, if I let the events play out, the rest of the story would eventually be filled in.

Then again, the rest of the story is still playing out - for me. On some plane everything is connected: Butterflies, Planes and Stars. I am the observer, the participant and the creator.

Or is this scenario a representation of our evolution? If we are butterflies and they are stars can we find a plane of connection that provides a middle ground? I have to keep working with this puzzle.

I do know the task before us is grand. They keep showing up to remind me to connect my dots as best I can. Beyond those dots is an even greater equation where nothing is what it seems.

We tend to think what we see is as it is represented. And yet, when I put the pieces of this puzzle together I remember: What we saw wasn't a star. Where does that leave the planes and the butterflies? And where does that leave me?

I already know. But I keep playing anyway .. at my role of seeking the answer.

Star ...or not. The bright spot you can hardly see. (Center/1 inch down)

Welcome to my reality. There is so much here to explore and learn that one cannot possibly consolidate everything into one lifetime. So we come back - not because we have to. For some and many, we return because this adventure is worth doing and worth being present for.

Life is simply amazing in whatever form it happens. And our sphere of engagement is an incredible place to learn, love and play. Once you find your magic, endless doors open from there. What does it take to find that magic? Try curiosity and wonder.

Curious, I wonder about a star that isn't a star. ...And a nightlight that isn't a nightlight.

Communicating with Animals - the best film you will ever see

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Wed, 30 Apr 2014 20:37:00 +0000

“Some people talk to animals. Not many listen though. That's the problem.”
― A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh

Heads up on this. Maybe you have heard about pet communicators but have not had a chance to work with one or see how their world works. Pet communication is also called Inter-species communication because it really goes beyond pets to include all forms of animal life.

This film may or may not be available in your area. If you have time, watch it now before the link goes away. It might change your view about what is possible in our relationship with our animal kin and how we can expand our knowledge and awareness as we simply make an effort to learn more about them and how they communicate to each other and with us in the best way they know how.

In my own experiences, working as an intuitive with people and pets, I know the methods are unique to each individual but the bottom line is that we all have to allow a greater role to the animals and stop viewing them as lesser beings. We are learning to listen in new ways as we expand our awareness of how to make better connections with all life forms. (Hemingway the Turtle)

This film offers instruction and insight through the observation of one very talented person who is demonstrating what can happen when we stop expecting animals to act like us or limit them to trying to reproduce our language - and simply allow them to present their interactions as guidance we can learn from and follow.

The tide is turning and more people are demonstrating and successfully engaging these communication skills. To that end, we are learning to give animals the opportunity to show us how we can better understand and more effectively connect with them. Finally.

A curious thing, Channeling

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Wed, 23 Apr 2014 06:49:00 +0000

Everywhere ... and here, I AM.

When I actively engage with my nightlights, I channel. The constant blinking presence is a reminder that all continues no matter how I choose to use my time. I can choose to connect or not - and I am still "connected"... ... ...

The guides suggest the state is similar to choosing to be an awakened and interactive participant vs. a sleepwalker or, as referred to in the current stream of creative overload flotsam: a zombie.

Humor is a good thing to take along for the ride.

Channeling prepares and awakens one to the finer points of telepathy and introduces the practitioner to the challenges of sorting through the varied levels of content to discern the difference between creation, projection and reflection.

Telepathy is such an efficient way to convey information. It would seem to be a sort of universal knowing without a traditional language form – thus, there are few words loaded with baggage to muddle the message.

Some bits of information are so incredibly dense there is no language to relate them. They are received in a process that might be described or compared to osmosis or implantation. Some refer to it as a download. The knowing is simply available without effort, desire or request on the part of the receiver.

While channeling does impact and involve a metamorphosis in the essence of the individual, it is primarily an extraordinary mind/consciousness adventure. Some channels are more publicly known while others work outside of mainstream view.

(An example of one channel who has a higher public profile: Bashar. The link connects to the film "Bashar - The Legacy" on Vimeo)

Euphoria in the connection is beyond compare and the temptation to allow that relationship to become a substitute for living is a very real pitfall. While the experience is unique to each individual – given the level of the channeled connection – desire for external sensory distorting or enhancing stimulation of all kinds – dissolves.

There is no need to amp it up because it is self-sustaining and energizing beyond our capacity to duplicate at this level.

For the seeker, there is so much information available when in that energy stream it can be difficult to separate or step away and continue with life in the former sense because one has become illuminated to a greater awareness and a larger sense of knowing.

At the onset, reluctance to separate can be due to fear that the connection will not be restored or is a temporary state. Reestablishing balance in the present life engagement will be a challenge.

wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d4/Keplers_supernova

Illumination that can be delivered via channeling is intense and transformative. Awareness floods into knowing without impediment. Expansion liberates one from the illusory confines of separation and ALL is revealed as ONE.

Transcendence is instantaneous and permanent. Likening it to the burst of a Supernova, nothing remains that has been untouched by this multidimensional reconfiguration.

It takes years to integrate the experience and even then residual enlightenment nuances continue to rise to the surface when triggered in the fluctuation of energy of the moment.

How to go about life as usual when one has found a connection that reveals a portion of the inner workings of the mystery, when life is now seen as extraordinary and miracles are part of the equation rather than exceptions to the “rule”. Each determines his own path.

A common hurdle - getting caught up and allowing something or someone else (an outside or external source) to hijack and assume the primary leadership role in one’s life, abdicating free will and transferring personal power to another simply because that source seems to have better answers for living. It can be very tempting to let something else call the shots. But it doesn’t get one off the hook for his own karma.

No matter how brilliant, how beautiful, how loving the nature of the content, channeling is a tool, an information stream, a refresher, a renourishment, a teaching one can tune into and choose to allow, deny, refer to or dismiss and not a source to worship or lay blame upon.

One is still accountable for his choices, actions and methods of relating, conveying, and transmitting whatever wisdom comes about as a result. And one remains a human on the path, engaged in his own journey of awakening, learning and unlearning, acquiring and releasing. Life lessons are still the focal point.

The seduction is very real, given this wondrous connection, to step back and away to simply sit and bask and avail oneself to engage the enigma of the stream for as many hours exist in the incarnation, the euphoria in the linking with that non-physical, divine source element is that ecstatically intense and spiritually profound. Rapture is an understatement.

The alternative is to assimilate and integrate the life enhancing sustenance in the abundant flow of source energy given, share what is relevant, life supporting, liberating and empowering and weave it into individual creation as each continues to grow, expand, transcend, ascend; to simply allow that perfection has called that which we see as manifestation into being to explore ONE through ALL unique manner and form of awareness.

Lessons abound and magic is everywhere, waiting to be recovered. Channeling can be a crutch or a liberator. Via channeling, one can tap into the siren call of the soul – singing the spark home to the light of being – while dancing in wonder all the way. There is no right way to be or do, there is simply evolution in the knowing: no thing lasts forever, and yet, ALL-that-IS/ONE … is eternal.

That’s the ride I signed on for. To understand … is to live! Aloha!

Adventures in the Afterlife - William Buhlman Interview revisited

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Tue, 15 Apr 2014 11:01:00 +0000

From my Guides - All is as you see it. To change anything real or unreal…change your focus and it will appear as you have seen. All is not what it seems. It is shifting and moving as the wind. You just have to allow what you want to appear and know it is coming…no matter what the current face. All shifts with your thoughts. As above - so below. The first shift is you.

I happened to stumble upon this info when trying to track one of my posts on Shamanism and was surprised to see the comments. William Buhlman is one of my favorite interviews from 2013, so - here it is - prefaced with a complimentary and informative comment.

[ -- "This is a fantastic interview. Especially because the interviewer herself experiences OBEs and the conversation is a two way discussion of the experiences. Mr. Buhlman says this new third book Adventures in the Afterlife is his first in 12 years, and I went to look inside his first book Adventures Beyond the Body (published in 1996) and The Secret of the Soul (published in 2001) and now look forward to the third book. (Still not finished with his first 2 books, but I read multiple books at the same time.)

I listened again this week to his audio How to Have an Out of Body Experience, and have also started Mr Robert Monroe's audio as well (unfortunately I have only fallen asleep each time on disk 2). The two audios seem to have entirely different styles, with Mr. Buhlman doing some talking about the OBE experience on various cds, followed with assorted styles of guided meditations, and so far on the 2 cds I've used from TMI (The Monroe Institute), the first CD was Robert Monroe talking about OBE and the second CD was entirely to be an OBE exercise, starting with the ocean wave sounds, instructions to get comfortable, some other faint background sounds?, the affirmation and some instructions . . . ZZZZZZZZZ . . . then waking up to hear him do a numerical countdown. Since I have fallen asleep each time I've listened to the second Robert Monroe OBE CD, I intend to listen to it while doing chores outside, and maybe I will get to hear consciously the exercise on the second CD.

But, I want to thank you for providing a link to this excellent interview with William Buhlman introducing his third book, this is an exceptionally interesting interview because the questions asked are so pertinent and the conversation is so organic and not just some interviewer going down a list of questions." -- ]

The quick overview: America's leading expert on out-of-body experiences, William Buhlman says OBEs allow people to discover they exist beyond the physical plane. Death is not an ending.

Learning he could ask for help in the non-physical state, he did exactly that to heal from Stage 4 Cancer and shares that story in his new book, Adventures in the Afterlife.

The connect with this and why it was triggered by my search. Shamanism teaches the same thing (as do my guides). We get outside our body to access healing and return in that upgraded vibration to set it into the manifest state. Healing himself from Cancer is a solid testament to the power of the mind. The best result from that: he is sharing the process --

Thank you! @ Information Machine

Mind's Eye/sci-fi thriller and a new UFO show

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Wed, 19 Feb 2014 06:31:00 +0000

“Stuff your eyes with wonder, he said, live as if you'd drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It's more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories.”
― Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451

One of the adds on my twitter subscriber feed looks interesting. This film actually touches on some of the stuff I have had to navigate since 1997. Haven't seen the film just the preview but it does underscore my view that reality is NOT linear.

My reality has unlimited bandwidth, unfathomable depth and extraordinary dimension, filled with unseen and unmappable quirks, every missing link and quantum blank serves a purpose.

My first experience of time-shifting threw out any old school notion of reality being a thing one can quantify. It is much, much larger. The mind cannot process it all, but we work with the bits and pieces we can and assume that is all there is to it. And that is where we are wrong. There is simply more.

What that more adds up to depends on the individual. Other personal experiences include OBE, multiple varieties of spirit beings, guardian angels, separate awareness-es, ONE-ness, Christ Consciousness, visions, premonition, telepathy, shape-shifting, energy healing, portals, mediumship, hauntings, cleansings, ghosts, non-corporeal beings, transdimensional beings, Divine intervention, ET phenom -- it all runs the gamut from drama to comedy. But that's just me.

This movie might be fun to check out ...to see how creative they get in framing their mind game.

MIND'S EYE - a metaphysical sci fi thriller. The set up: A young high-school musician, Mattie Carver, is on a strange and unpredictable journey through the looking-glass world of the mind’s eye. Joined by her science teacher, the school psychologist, two mysterious men in black, and her closest friends, Mattie must find the truth in a constantly morphing reality before it slips away from her forever.

MIND'S EYE - a metaphysical sci fi thriller, deals with the paradoxes of time and memory, trauma and loss. Starring Dean Cain, Natalie Distler and Izzie Steele, and featuring Malcolm Mcdowell. Appearances by Monte Markham and Aaron Perilo.

Other news highlights -- A new UFO show is set to take a bow.

Details: John Ventre had no interest in unidentified flying objects until he decided to write a science fiction book about 17 years ago. The deeper he went in his research, the more evidence of UFOs he found.

His thoughts on the subject now? He says, "I am 100 percent convinced it is a real phenomenon.” Ventre is Pennsylvania director for the Mutual UFO Network and one of the stars of “Hangar 1,” a new History Channel series about UFOs.

“Hangar 1” debuts Feb. 28 at 10 p.m. after “Ancient Aliens” on History Channel's H2 station.

Valentine Two-fer plus a haunting Phantom

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Fri, 14 Feb 2014 16:23:00 +0000

“The world is full of obvious things which nobody by any chance ever observes.”
― Arthur Conan Doyle, The Hound of the Baskervilles

I love this little guy. Activated by sunlight, we found it at the dollar store and I snagged it for my Valentine ... Andy chuckled. He said, "I pictured you saying this when we were younger." ...

I looked at him in complete surprise. "No way? ... Really? ... Is that what you thought?" My reply was immediate but maybe a bit too quick. I thought it over for a few moments and then I had to concede a point or two. In hindsight, there might be something to that perception...

It was complicated. We met at a summer conservation camp and became pen pals for 4 years. Snail mail. Those were the days. Until he had to break a date - not his fault - his Mom made alternate plans. I didn't know that Mom part and I got mad at him.

At the same time, I was going off to college and my Stepdad intervened and, without my knowing, threw out his letters to me. He also informed Andy that I was getting married. I wasn't.

I just figured we had parted ways. And there our story paused. Divine intervention from both home teams, as it were.

30 years later, we finally reconnected and Andy told me the rest of the story - what happened when he stopped by the house with a friend to hand deliver a letter. He gave it to my Stepdad and watched in complete disbelief and horror as it was promptly shredded.

Interestingly enough, at times, we had each tried to check in but there were missed opportunities and false trails.

Fate turned a page and several chapters. We met again - discovered the twists and turns. No surprise that he wasn't frightened by my ever-present nightlight companions.

He reminded me of the blinking lights he pointed out and tried to tell me about at camp. I remembered and also remembered I told him not to talk about stuff like that or people would think he was crazy. We spent a lot of time talking and looking at the stars. I was impressed because he knew the constellations.

Full circle. How could I have known the blinking lights were a sign? I wasn't supposed to - until the reconnection - and recollection of a marker that, long ago, had been set in place. There is so much more going on here than we can fathom. That's what makes it all so special.

Andy had no intention of letting my delightful, little winged-pig get the last laugh. He added one more gift for me to find at my desk.

Andy showed up again in my life when I really needed a friend who knew me before all of my detours and then after, when the nightlights joined the journey. There had never been a kiss between us. We were friends and something more. That something more was the cement. What a trip this life is!

Now, here's a haunting Phantom -- with all the drama, romance, detours, novelty and a few extra quirks that make it even more outstanding .. unforgettable too.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Change - front and center - It's about TIME - part 1

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Thu, 13 Feb 2014 17:02:00 +0000

“For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much—the wheel, New York, wars and so on—whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man—for precisely the same reasons.” - Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Awoke to the sound of the electronic thing again. Not a voice, a sound. It's happened enough that by now I know it is simply a trigger. Time for me to connect a few more dots.

I gave a presentation for the local MUFON group Monday. The timing of that and Gracie shifting into an agitated mode on Tuesday and again this morning reminds me to simply remain focused and look for the messages that speak to our highest good.

Two elements seem to find connection at this moment. Time and Change.

I did an interview with Iva Peele on her powerful journey featured in the film The Road to Q'ero We had a great conversation and she shares insight into how her world changed and indeed how her life path was dramatically altered as a result of her experience. Her interview is here. It helps set the tone for anyone ready to make a dramatic life shift.

At the MUFON meeting, we talked about shifting time and how that might work. I have experienced in my ET contact very real instances of altered states of time.

In 2009, during active telepathic contact with what I was told was an ET element, my landscape of colorful cars shifted into a world where there were only black, silver, white, tan -- neutrals. I was told to avoid contact with anyone and not to telegraph what I knew to avoid sticking myself to that alternate timeline. It was mind expanding. I was not then nor do I now take medication or substances that would induce such a state. The experience suggests we might not have considered some other options in regard to how we manage and navigate our experience of time.

But ponder this: How does one reconcile awareness that others are here among us who can, have and will shift our reality at any time? I am still working on it.

Several years ago, I bookmarked and saved some information on time shifting/warping. My experience was different but this information is a recipe for personal time bending. The article is printed as I found it. The website it sources is no longer active. -

These techniques came about serendipitously during teleportation experiments that ran from September to November 2004. While the teleportation experiments met with very limited success when it came to actually moving through space physically, there were some very interesting effects related to experimental procedure.

The first indication that something might be happening was a clock, sitting about five feet from the experimental platform (That is, the sofa I was sitting on) that stopped during the second experiment. It started again on it's own after five hours, and within 12 hours had caught up to the correct time.

At the time it was written off as faulty batteries and new ones put in the clock the next day.
During the third experiment the clock slowed by seven minutes. This slow-down happened only during the teleportation attempt. Again it corrected itself by the next morning. Even though watched, the clock showed anomalous effects only during the procedure.

To test the nature of this effect I placed a small digital clock on my person, sat next to the wall clock that had been showing irregular effects in approximately the same position as before, and placed a third clock at the far wall of another room.

I attempted to teleport as before. The two clocks closest to me had a variance of twenty minutes and thirty seconds from the control clock in the other room. When I checked with several outside clocks the variance of the control clock that was in the building was less than one minute.

This happened at some approximate level during each teleportation experiment that was checked for differences in time.

Things that I noticed during these episodes:

The variance in time was directly proportional to my own perception of meditative state. The deeper I went, the more time skewed.
Time effects went away when I focused my mind on non-space warping topics, with one exception, regardless of mental state. That exception was, naturally, when I focused on time itself, rather than space.
If I allowed myself to dwell on time rather than space, I could direct the warping of time to move more slowly or more quickly in my local area, out to about seven feet from my body. The area of effect fell off greatly after that until about eighteen feet away the effects faded to a level that could not be determined with the equipment at hand.
Time seems to have an elastic quality that causes it to catch-up or wait for the rest of local time. In other words, if you bend it, it will snap back into place. The effects of these experiments seem, by and large, temporary.

From this I learned to bend time, to warp it, with consistent results. During further experiments I learned that for some reason it is far simpler to warp time while moving in space. Now before anyone runs out and buys a space ship, I am talking about travel in planes and automobiles, not some interstellar expedition. While this effect may work well under those conditions as well, I have not had the opportunity to try at this point.

I mention this not because it is needed for the effect to be used, but rather, because this effect is the only real use I have found for this particular skill. Getting places faster by changing local time coordinates. The idea is tricky to hold in your mind, but works very well, when you get the hang of it.

I have successfully altered time with the following technique by twenty minutes faster and slower subjective time as opposed to external time. I would recommend testing it with clocks of differing sorts, to prevent simple psychokinetic effect on a given kind of clock from skewing your data.....

Part Two in the next post ....

Reflection Illuminated

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Wed, 12 Feb 2014 15:20:00 +0000

When you find the way
Others will find you
Passing by on the road
They will be drawn to your door
The way that cannot be heard
will be reflected in your voice
The way that cannot be seen
Will be reflected in your eyes
- Lao Tzu

Reflection

And when indeed they find you
nothing need be said
You are no longer represented
as external projection.

In arriving, they see they have no reflection
as no thing here is real, simply a shadow of the One
-- a playing field where soul cavorts in creation
until the time comes to shift and rise up
to the next level of the charade.

When one finds himself
in a home he never left
he remembers to laugh
and honor the projection
of all-that-is illuminated in being and non-being.

Quietly resumed, the role of gatekeeper,
he stands at the ready
poised in perfect awareness
illuminated without knowing
the traveler in reflection.

Top Ten Most Intriguing Sites - Ancient Megalithic Structures

“Reality is frequently inaccurate.” - Douglas Adams, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

I have had several opportunities to talk with Ross Holcomb about his interest in Crop Circles and Hidden History.

In our most recent interview (Link), we talked about some of the things that simply don't make sense when it comes to our current school of thought in regard to the age of our civilization and the mysteries that are not finding their way into our history books.

Afterward, Ross told me he had a list of favorite sites to visit to provide food for thought and I asked if I could share it. Here is his list, along with background information and photos, including one of Meredith, on site. I added links for extra credit. Enjoy! - wendy

Ancient Megalithic Structures
Top Ten Most Intriguing Sites
Ross Holcomb

Over thirty years of research has led to my fascination with ancient megalithic sites located on nearly every continent on earth. Clearly, there were those before us who chose gargantuan stones as their material of choice to construct these intriguing sites, which is the primary reason they persist today.

Modern human society finds wood, brick, concrete, steel, and small stones to be the building material of choice and accounts for nearly every modern structure. And for good reason, as these modern materials are much easier to work with and allow individuals or small groups of people to build nearly any structure anywhere.

Despite the difficulty, from our current perspective, these ancient ones were able to put together structures that have lasted for thousands of years, many with incredible precision, detail and extraordinary levels of masonry that we would struggle to match today.

In fact, I doubt that we could duplicate several of these sites even with the most modern technology available. So how did the ancients do it? Why such large stones? Why such precision? Why were they located in some of the most unusual places?

In nearly every circumstance, conventional wisdom credits the oldest known civilization in each region for constructing these sites. The problem with this is three-fold:

- Since the oldest human civilization known to man was the Sumerian (according to modern history) and that occurred roughly 6000 years ago, nothing can be older than that. And most appear to be...

- These megalithic sites appear to be the oldest in the region, meaning that the local indigenous people achieved feats that their descendants haven’t come close to replicating. For which there is no logical explanation...

-In most cases, when the oldest indigenous oral and written history are forthcoming, they unanimously admit that these structures were here before they were . . . attributing them to even more ancient ancestors. Which modern historians inexplicably disregard...

Operating under these false assumptions and narrowing filters, we have been offered up a bevy of mythical tales and unsubstantiated stories as to who, how, when, and why these sites were constructed. In most cases, these theories are offered up as fact with little or no supporting empirical evidence and passed off as History!

When they are challenged, or evidence comes to light that pokes irreparable holes in the theories, usually, the evidence is disregarded and the challenger is discredited or marginalized by the gatekeepers of modern history.

While many of the thousands of ancient megalithic sites are small or have little left to examine, there are still dozens of spectacular ruins around the world. Most have been systematically taken/broken apart as early human civilizations (and, unfortunately, modern man) found them to be much easier to quarry than actually digging up, cutting, and transporting new stones.

This is further evidence that the megalithic structures were in place long before humans began to settle in these regions and should be credited with dismantling the sites (whenever possible) rather than constructing them.

Despite the passing of thousands of years and the ignorant desecration by humans, dozens of enigmatic sites persist. While any one site seems to be explainable by conventional wisdom, the vast body of evidence as a whole creates entirely new problems for conventional wisdom to explain away.

Not to dismiss the importance of any one site, I have created a dynamic list of my top ten most intriguing, in order to give those of us who have been kept in the dark, a place to start. My list changes nearly every year as new evidence is uncovered, or, I stumble upon information that has eluded me thus far.

As of 2014 my list includes a variety of sites, any of which, punches holes into the current theories on its own, and collectively, makes them laughable.

These sites, all attributed to early civilizations, that rarely involved more development than “hairy men and women in deerskins” who lived in stick and mud dwellings, can not have been created with the tools that conventional wisdom assigns them.

No amount of manpower, ropes, rolling logs, or ramps can really answer the questions of Who, Why, When, or How.

10) Olmec Heads and Costa Rican Spheres

- 19 heads, 25-55 tons each with unusual facial features >3000 ya

- 300+ spheres up to 7 ft diameter/15 tons

9) Standing stones of Carnac, France

- 3000+ standing stones up to 21 ft tall/350 tons >5300 ya

8) Wiltshire, England – Avebury Circle and Stonehenge

- Largest ancient stone circle in world, up to 12 ft/150 tons remain

- 150+ stones (from afar) 4-50 tons, astronomical/energy alignmts

7) Rapa Nui (Easter Island) - Moai statues and Ahu

- 900 statues 10-165 tons, full bodied, carved, polygonal walls

Easter Island (Rapa Nui). Some of the Moai statures were recently excavated, to reveal full bodies!
Much larger, heavier, and older than thought.

6) Underwater Structures – India, Bahamas, Cuba, Yonaguni

- Non-natural structures corners, edges, lines, pyramids, etc

5) Gobekli Tepe, Turkey

- Recent discovery, 10,000+ yrs old! Buried on purpose.

4) Peru – Cuzco,Machu Piccu, Sacsayhuaman, Ollantaytambo

- Polygonal walls, no mortar, exquisite masonry, 300 tons, energy

Meredith Holcomb at Sacsayhuaman, Peru. Note the enormous polygonal stones, tightly fitted with no mortar.

3) Egypt – Pyramids, Upper Nile,Scattered stone work

- Amazing pyramids, best ones oldest, technology, masonry

- 1000 ton blocks, statues, walls without mortar

- Precision cuts, holes, balance in hardest stones

2) Tiwanaku and Puma Punku, Bolivia

- Pyramid, underground channels, detailed masonry

- Precision cuts, holes, inset 90 degree corners, hardest stones

1) Baalbek, Lebanon

- Huge platform underlying Greek/Roman ruins. 20 ft high tunnels

- 1200 ton, precisely cut, transported, elevated, no mortar

Baalbek, Lebanon. Ground level view, NW corner of the "platform" below the Greek and Romans temples. The megaliths in this view are an estimated 1200 tons, raised 20+ feet off the ground!

My presentation offers telling photographs and insight into the discoveries, both told and untold, from each of these sites. There are many ancient sites that are not of megalithic construction, and still others that are carved out of the solid earth and stones, which are not included in this particular topic. These are no less intriguing, but constitute a separate presentation.

Perhaps the most incredible facet of this subject is that any reasonable person, without degrees or titles, can see the fallacy of the historical fictions presented to us as fact. Why can’t the archaeologists see this?

And, more importantly, why do they so ardently defend these theories against all-comers as if their very identity and livelihood depend on guarding against the discovery that the Emperor has no clothes on? Most disturbing, but worth investigating, is the idea that this “fabricated history” is being perpetuated on purpose.

Most of the people who attend this presentation have not heard of at least half of the sites on my list. Why isn’t this being presented for consideration in our schools and mass media? What are the implications regarding human history?

Is it time to revise or wholly rewrite the timeline? What else is science proclaiming as fact that really amounts to the “theory of the day” or outright propaganda? How would we be empowered by knowing the hidden truth about the world?

Ross Holcomb is a Metaphysical Consultant who has spent much of his life researching, exploring, and teaching hidden knowledge which describes how the Universe may actually work, often in contradiction to what we are taught by conventional education.

“We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams.” - Roald Dahl

Life offered me a fascinating new view when the nightlights made known their presence in my world. I try to explain what that is and I am at a loss. But here we are - trying to explain it or describe it - and I need the right words. I hear my guides and they want equal time. I open my mind to engage them and we charge on.

If I give it words, I might say the view exploded. It became quantum.

And this is where they are vying for the floor. They give me images, math I can not translate, symbols, shapes and colors. I am happy calling it quantum. It seems that isn't enough. They have a better term.

They insist upon "quantum fractals". What? Does that make sense? I google. Wow! Turns out this is something really good. I should know better than to doubt but it is a habbit of mine to try to find substantiation or evidence that helps to validate their case.

At least this time - unlike the stuff they gave me on black holes and Mr. Hawking - which is still finding a form in which to gel, the scientific basis is present to better illustrate my description.

I am endlessly fascinated at how they can give me stuff I would never have thought to hook up.
I do admit it is the best surprise to see the butterfly - the symbol I showcase in my signature work of art. So many levels this connects.

It is hard to limit entertainment in the form of curiosity and wonder to the linear plane when the divine mystery refuses to stop tap dancing on your head.

In search of .. I

When I get distracted or otherwise focused on a material pursuit, to the point where I am on the verge of setting out in search of a new career, passion or cause to champion, the lights in my office or at the foot of the bed blink, flicker and pop on/off.

They do that everyday anyway but somehow they manage to get me to shift my attention and listen to them again.

"Redirect," they say. "Remember your call."

Drat!

It seemed endless, the loop, the years of trying to "remember" that call. What the heck was it that I knew but could not tell myself until I came to center and awareness in being?

For years, I thought I was already there and it was about the pursuit. Or I told myself something like that.

It felt secure, a solid state in unknown knowing. Like everyone says, "It's the journey." Turns out the answer is not the journey. And it is not in the pursuit. Not. At least, not for me.

The clues have been here all along. The guides have been patient, loving, supportive ... creative and tenacious.

What could it be that I forgot? I seemed to know it in bits and pieces. I had full awareness and crystal clarity in visions and dreams only to have it yanked from my being - really - and having been jolted so strongly I had no choice but to awaken from that state to the state of hazy awareness.

Comfortable but something feels to be missing. It finally dawns and it was so simple I realize that the jolt WAS the wake up. It just took some time and living to kick in.

What is it that keeps me going, seeking, tracking, connecting, surfing, exploring, celebrating, dancing in the eyes/I's?

I didn't come to work, I came to learn. I NEVER would have shown up if I thought it was work. That's the fine print. (Underscores the reference to the devil in the details.)

I learn best when I am at play. I am curious. I thrive on wonder, joy, mystery, magic and whimsy. I was called to remember the heart of spiritual evolution requires a state of allowing, of trust and faith in being, of appreciation and gratitude that no matter what our limited view of this awesomely indescribable wonder in being, all is a celebration in creation.

The big picture is designed to win. Even in our worst failure and our darkest misinterpretations of sacred, we cannot ruin the big picture - because it is BEYOND us. All is right with creation.

Here we are in the work of a lifetime, after lifetime, after lifetime ... playing to win better. (And wiser.)

These beautiful energies who animate themselves in my nightlights ... Alive, vibrant and thriving, they patiently persist in calling me to attention, with no goal other than to encourage me to share the story of the ever-being light in our space, the light to which we are to aspire/expire/inspire.

I feel the warmth. They love us in all our goods and bads, beauty and faults. We are loved in so many ways by so very many beings. Wow! Wow! Wow!

What a rush!

Their presence is a constant and designed to coax one into desiring self awareness. What we do
is up to us - but they continue with purpose - ready to celebrate the day humans, as a species, claim their divine right in loving creation and being and once and for all remember their call happens in the moment.

It wasn't about the journey and it wasn't about the pursuit. It is about the moment.

We are all that is and more the moment we lose the fear and trust the knowing we carry within to remind us - this is our time. We claim our right to wonder when we dare to seize the moment and shake it up!

The room is a-burst, a celebration of creation. My thought is bearing fruit. Quantum Fractals go everywhere! I was called to bring light into being. And so I am.

Developing insight - conversations with Nightlights

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Tue, 28 Jan 2014 21:06:00 +0000

Welcome. The Nightlights are talking. I listen and begin the process of conscious channeling.

Being in silence is not about creating a void without noise - rather, it is shifting focus from sensory to extrasensory ..

exposing the tones, notes and tunes of the inner realms ..

engaging awareness ..

accessing guidance ..

Are you ready for higher knowing? You are here. Then, so you are.

See and be seen.

.. developing tools to navigate the quantum state.

I will share with you the notes in passing of my companions in the non-form state.

They are many and one and they entertain me each and every day in the dancing of the nightlights.

Names don't stick - that creates an energy block
- so we/I simply give the essence a listen

and allow that which resonates
to be called to a moment of awareness.

Each is charting his own course. I listen and follow my light.
All is love and learning
and we are part of that
as we pass this way to the higher realms of being.
Works in process of illumination.

The conversation begins:

As we have said, many are being gathered. You think the body is all there is and when one disappears, one is dead. That is really beyond anything you are able to fathom – the soul is what is being gathered.

It doesn't come from here. It simply decides to shift and realign and all changes. What is seen on the physical plane as a death is a necessary exit to allow for a departing and a new arrival elsewhere.

What happens?

They are wiped clean. No memories to allow for a smooth transition and no baggage.

Is this agreed to?

Yes, at a higher level than we are able to access. It is not a hostage situation. Each is willing to shift the energy for the greater good. Awareness is more broad in the higher levels. They know and allow the karma to be lifted for a moment to do another job and then come back to the train.

Aloha.

I expect to take a break but the conversation continues.

As we have said, the best and the brightest, not the smartest and the prettiest. The worthy.

They know and are here for a moment to help, then to shift their light to a greater calling. None are recognized to allow the work to be done. Each is wearing a mask and a funny hat. And so it goes. Some leave and some stay and the greater picture goes on.

All is light.

Now we take a break.

Life - the journey I mistook to be me

noreply@blogger.com (Wendy's Coffeehouse) — Sat, 25 Jan 2014 04:13:00 +0000

Set your intent to reveal the future and it becomes the present. - Wendy's Coffeehouse Oracle

Journaling has commanded a large role in my life. Invaluable tool for charting personal progress and growth, it has given me clarity, direction, comfort and support when I needed an accurate account of events and objective insight into situations I could easily have misread.

It has also provided entertainment. Knowing we are a curious lot and others with whom I shared my space might be tempted to peruse my personal notes, I kept several notebooks in various stages and form.

Trying to find those and put them back together? I laugh. I created a puzzle for me as well. Each has a bit of the story but it makes for a tangled trail. Why? It was sometimes easier to write the moment and let it go than to worry about chronology. Fractured tales in journaling. Or is it fractured journaling in tales.

In reviewing my notes, I find it sometimes took years to connect spiritual dots. Some stuff I still can't believe happened. Awe doesn't diminish with time.

As the path continued to unfold, leading me further down the rabbit hole, I would sometimes feel distracted or that I was following a blind lead but that experience later proved necessary in offering a vital detail or connecting me to person I would not have sought out who delivered an important clue.

The treasure is having it in writing - the experience of mapping out everything - even my own false projections (outlined in scribbled detail). It very much helps to be able to read the emotion and the need of the moment to better appreciate the purpose was the journey and not the outcome.

Reflection

What becomes real in that knowing is that, no matter what we believe to be the outcome or final endpoint, ending isn't real.

Real is ongoing flow, happening now. When we get caught up in our fabrications of the outer world, we miss that magic we are within.

Here is a great place to be. Here is where it happens.
Here - I AM - Free. Free to flow, fly, create!

No matter how real it looks to me, even my journal is another fantasy. I have learned in all these years of writing and in reading those results, it is best to write with a view in mind of a reality I dream of rather than one I dread.

At the time, I thought that my dreaded (fear) view was realistic. It was actually a projection. Light bulb!

Given our power as manifestors and creators, each potential outcome is given viable form in the vision. I don't know the future. I do know what I dream now can become if I shift my view to empower my energy as a creator vs. witness or projector.

Did I spend days, moments, hours on that winded path? Only if the test was minor. Major tests required unfolding drama on multiple levels...and years. Dreams worked into the equation and reality followed suit.

In journaling, I found myself - wrestling the illusion. I flew high and I plumbed the depths. Such is the process and nature of learning, of becoming, of being. It happens in curves, loops, leaps and dives, and - in all ways - now.

My path was/is a zig-zag with hairpin curves, where some of those I thought closest to me faltered and bailed when they saw my/our path took us round the bend. They couldn't see the trail and that is a hard thing to take for granted as known by another. And/or even-more-so when the path you CAN see appears to lead into an empty void. Scary stuff. They left and I continued to trust.

Newsflash_ that black/white/empty_ void is where creation thrives. Only when one is ready to jump in are the hands that guide offered and the unseen support given to make the landing stick. Only when you finally allow yourself to be alone do you discover you are not.

There is a higher plane of being from which we see all separation is temporary. Parting of ways allows revelation. We all meet again, albeit, in different form.

If you remember, you know. If not, you can. There is no rushing or forcing - the path for each is unique - made up of all one's past, future and present with personal signposts dotting the way.

The traveler can call it - if he/she can remember that - and the journey will be so much more dazzling. No matter how real it all appears. Each and every being on your path is a reflection of creation.

The true path is revealed when one relates to himself in such a way he can dodge past the detractors and distractions to engage that which resonates to a higher frequency or reflects an empowering note.

To be that incredible void - where the colors spill out in ribbons and the mind boggles when trying to assign the experience in linear terms is to know we are at the threshold of a greater awareness.

What did I want to achieve with my journaling? Insight.
I have. And so much more.
I am connected to my Nightlights.
Set free the wings on your heart and follow the bubbles up.

An angel came to me in the waking dream...and gave me a vision.

I was so far down ..
                                         down ..
                                                                   down ..

.. drowning in a toxic relationship.

The soul work was necessary and had been done
but I had no strength to pull myself out
nor did I have a direction.

In the vision, a large, brown-skinned arm reached down from a cloud to offer me a hand up
and I was given the image of something that looked like a hook.

At the same time, a friend told me to listen to IZ ... a signpost. Thank-you.
