One radiant, creative life, consciously using the heart or throat centres (authentic voice), can carry inspiration to hundreds." ~ Alice Bailey

Summer Solstice
Integration into the Now

An authentic message from Spirit is always one in the theme of unity--of an ever widening heart. This year’s summer solstice message is about increasing awareness to wholeness--wholeness within our selves in relation with the Kosmos & the Earth body; in our love and family relationships; and with the collective “other.” It is all about an increasing connection to unity and our undivided presence. We always begin and end in the eternal present. If we dwell in the past or project into the future, we lose. Presence is a gift of the moment where our true nature in clarity dwells.

So, in exploring this learning curve to unity consciousness—expressed as trial and error in life, we come against roadblocks that represent our level of resistance to what is. Our resistance points directly to areas that need growth in the expansion of our realities.

Essentially, the energies of the Summer Solstice bring awareness to all this and how we may better relate to one another in the arena called life. Today marks a pivotal period of alignment and the integration of our experiences from wherever we are, which requires presence.

Maintaining presence is the necessary healing balm for transformation. Living in the eternal now we uncover our pain without sidestepping it. In letting go to what is, we may feel lousy for a while, but at least there is light at the end of the tunnel as we accept and move through our emotional baggage. When we feel the fear and do it anyway we realize that what we feared was not so scary after all, that our beliefs manufactured a particular reality that was false. And that falsehood did not represent the truth.

Observe beliefs for inner conflict. Heal beliefs, judgments and their perceptions. It will change the world within and the world that we abide in begins to heal before our very eyes. As the hermetic phrase states,“As within, so without, as above, so below!”

There are myriad opportunities that await us. Go for it--the psychological timeline of life is short. There is a Kosmic implode whose origins arise from deep within …seize the energy, use it to heal the body-mind & spirit. This integration phase is vitally necessary in humanities transformation from divided consciousness with self, the human family, the Earth body and Kosmic overlight.

A CRUDE AWAKENING: THE OIL CRASH
We've built our civilization to depend on it. We consume as much oil in a single day as it would take to fill enough barrels to encircle the entire planet. It's our achilles heel, and geologists and economists agree there's a major problem on the horizon. Have we hit our peak, and what massive implications will that have on our lives in both the short and long term?

Reducing Electromagnetic Frequency Exposure May Improve Your Health-In September 2007, the EU's European Environment Agency (EEA)1 and the country of Germany2 both issued warnings to their citizens advising them to avoid the use of WiFi and cell phones until further long term studies are conducted, citing fears that the ubiquitous use of wireless technology has the potential to become the next public health disaster on the level of tobacco smoking, asbestos, and lead in automobile gas (as reported by The BioInitiative Working Group3). Israel’s Knesset recently banned the placement of cellular antennas on residential buildings4. According to Canadian Underwriter, Lloyd’s of London is already "preparing for the next big liability action — for personal injury damages based on the use of cell phone technology."

Why mobile phone masts can be more dangerous than the phones- So how does this form of biological feedback relate to mobile phones and their masts? Put very simply, because of the extreme sensitivity of at least some living cells to weak non-ionising radiation, the question is not why the weak radiation from a distant mast does so much damage, it is why a handset next to the ear doesn’t do very much more. The answer lies in our own negative feedback systems.

CBS NEWS & NEW YORK TIMES POLL CONSUMERS ABOUT GE FOODS

53%: Percentage of polled Americans who say they won't buy food that has ingredients from genetically engineered (GE) plants.
65%: Actual percentage of products on grocery store shelves that contain unlabeled GE ingredients (usually soy or corn derived).
90%: Portion of U.S. grown soybeans that are genetically engineered.
99%: Estimated likelihood that the U.S. sugar supply will start to be sourced from genetically engineered plants this year.

Take Action against GE Sugar

As dietary supplements become more popular and threaten the bottom line of traditional medicine and Big Pharma, we see more and more studies and articles that try to convince the public that dietary supplements are useless, unregulated, or even deadly. Often these studies are superficial and if you scratch the surface you can see the bad science and inaccurate reporting. This is in response to the Cochrane review.
Neuropsychiatric Genetics fails to find cause of mental illness--Psychiatry is looking for biological mechanisms to explain what it defines as "mental illness" to justify biological treatments, such as electroshock and mind bending pharmaceutical drugs.

Temperature Monitors Report Widescale Global Cooling (PDF)- There has been a one-year trend of cooling temperatures globally, as verified by the major temperature tracking stations, in 2007. It is too early to say if this is a reversal of the warming observed for the last decades, but it certainly is dramatic and it's unexpected. Global warming is not as clear-cut a thing as we are expected to believe, nor is the theory that says the warming we observe is due to human-generated increase in atmospheric CO2. Evidently, the global warming debate is far from over. But the important point is not whether there is, or not, global warming, neither is it whether that warming is caused by human activities. The really important point is that our industrial activities are polluting our environment (air and water) in a completely untenable way. Planet Earth is becoming slowly uninhabitable for human life, because of dirty technologies polluting the environment both chemically and electromagnetically. THAT is the problem, not global warming.

A Call to Your Conscience

You can help make tomorrow's world by Acting today.

STOP BUSH'S BIOTECH BULLYING!-According to the Chicago Tribune, the White House is attempting to force famine stricken countries, mostly in sub-Saharan Africa, to plant genetically engineered (GE) crops, as part of a $770 million aid package. Untested and largely unregulated GE crops are controversial, not only in Europe and other industrialized countries, but in the developing world as well. At least 40 countries around the world have restricted GE farming and ingredients in foods by requiring mandatory labeling, while a number of nations and regions have banned genetically modified organisms in agriculture altogether. Beyond health and environmental concerns, and contrary to industry propaganda, GE crops do not significantly increase yields, but rather force farmers to stop saving their seeds and instead buy toxic chemicals and highly priced patented seeds from biotech companies such as Monsanto, Syngenta, Bayer, Dupont, Dow,'s and BASF. Please take action today and urge your members of Congress to reject the Bush Administration's force-feeding of biotech crops to impoverished nations:

Bush Impeachment Hearings-hold the Bush/Cheney Administration accountable. Congressman Dennis Kucinich introduced the first Articles of Impeachment ever to be introduced against President Bush. It includes, in total, thirty-five Articles detailing this Administration's blatant abuse of power. Today, I enthusiastically co-sponsored this vitally important bill.
