Inwardly and Outwardly -5th December, 2023

The seas of energetic interplay roll over and under the back-tides of past history.

War is nought but a back-tide and sometimes its force will drag and draw many with it, as it recedes- back the old pathway into the heavens, to become in the world no more.

There are always those who would become kings of fate: they choose to try to attempt to mark and shape a humanity - as with the face on the coin - they would put their face and their stamp as demi-gods or would-be gods.

And it could be said that most tyrants suffer from a physical malady whereupon their own system is overrun with those invading infiltrates - for many times one’s common perception can mirror the physiology they bear. The consciousness often times goes inward, usually in the night hours, and it knows much of what the body endures and if there is a corruption to the body the being of the individual within that body is aware to some extent of the dis-regularity, or disharmony of the condition.

And most naturally we would want to right any ills and restore health to the body that we are in - not always is it fit for purpose from birth moving on - for the physical body in many respects follows its own course. Some speculate that illnesses as a cancer manifest due to emotions of the consciousness within, however in observation this is not the case. It may be that health is aggravated sorely but it would be too simplistic to lay blame in this way. And yet the forces welcomed to both the soul and the body that it is invested in - the cosmic forces - do nourish and maintain the physical frame.

And nightly the soul will peer in, as it were, inspecting or just getting to know the condition of their beloved body and it is not unusual for the physical frame to vary its conditions and to host all manner of ancillary beings - minute in size — communities to their own - that life on life does travel.

And the would-be dictator can suffer an esotericism that takes them into themselves. Extreme egotism can do this also. And the world is perceived as the inside out, as nonsensical as this may be found, it is completely sensical, and this is the point. Sometimes if we cannot look outwardly to the world and its stories and are focused only upon ourselves it becomes that we see the patterns of ourselves everywhere, and even can begin to enact them.

If Napoleon had eaten more sugar he would have been a far different man.

Sugar inspires joviality within the body and without; it devours a certain parasite, it qualms the complaints, it stills the emotions, and it buffers the relationship of ego to body. Sugar takes a perspective outside of the body, and outside of the self for a time.

And whilst it is never advised to over-do or indulge in great quantities, one can understand that it is the action of the sweetness introduced into the body that alleviates the stresses of conferring with the living situation within and without. 

Wild Horses- 26th November 2023

If one has ever seen the Brumbies on the plains galloping in unison, feeding from the sweet grass, muscular, with heads erect, taut, and ready to run … their spirits are not wild- nay they are perfectly aligned with the nature around them … their instincts are as they should be. Their lives are fulfilled, and often as one great body they live and breed.

Why then would they ever consent to becoming tamed as they do, to live a life of subservience, to only run when commanded, to become brittle in bone, and fed on chaff, without the company of their beloved kin, never more to choose for themselves, and then and thereafter generations would be born into this service of slavery?

And so whilst it is a beautiful vision to behold a man on his horse, it is in truth a sad one as well.

Men themselves very easily become as the horse: they may forfeit their true natures and even their breed, to be in the service of another.

Graciously we may serve one another willingly in the spirit of charity, generosity, and compatibility: cooperation is archetypical to the higher realms and this of itself, when willingly and consciously executed is over-lit with joy - however subservience and brokenness perishes yet further the will and the striving, and leads ever yet to an inertia whereby the individual can no longer move forward or back, and slowly but slowly begins to die.

From an early age children are encouraged into compliance by various means and are taught to accept their role in life as being merely one of a group, or of an order, of a predestined future.

But what is really required is that freedom is nurtured within the mind, the will, the soul, and cared for, that freedom is described and shown and proven, where possible. Of course it is not appropriate or wise for a small one to make big decisions or be allowed to go where they choose; however this is not really what freedom is about.

The true spirit of freedom is the acknowledgement of identity: that one is not part of any group.

There are those who say that they favour uniqueness and with good reason they push back against the enclave, and in this struggle they are saying very loudly that they want to be themselves; which may not really be revealed by a paint-pot or a change of name, yet it is the cry for the human spirit to be able to feel the freedom that Christ and Father God has endowed.

There can be no meaningful change in the spiritual realm for the many who are born to conform into ideologies and faith that deny them their own souls.

We are coming to a time where in many ways and many regions this innate sense of free-spiritedness will regain its composure regardless of the outer pressures, and this may manifest in many different ways, but know that this will be the cause of disruptions and seeming absurdities, yet overall and until it shall be.

The Energetic Thinker-19th November 2023

Out from the breaches of the innermost city, scurry our thoughts, in and out, with preponderance, questions and doubt … this metropolis of thought vies for the attention of the soul.

And the inner man discriminates as well as he might in contrast and competition to that which impedes the consciousness from without. It is not a struggle, yet it is a contest.

And only the energetic thinker may succeed within the modern world today.

One might have imagined that the process of thinking and the receiving of thought would have been clarified as the individual gains knowledge of self, and his comprehension grows accordingly. However, the conditions of the outer world have somewhat changed and it is as though the frequencies have been altered.

The bearings of a man (although the same as they ever were) now need to adjust in order to understand and interpret what lays all about him.

And to ask if this has been an organic change, or even one in which the gods have contrived, the honest answer to this would be no, no - this is an interference of sorts.

One often may wonder where has the commonsense gone? Why is it that individuals have lost their bearings when it comes to a simple morality, a plain decision, a generous heart?

And one of the answers no less moderate is that their very thinking has been interfered with to such an extent that they do not know what they know, they cannot see what they see, they cannot hear what they hear.

The majority of individuals within the world are confused and derelict. The light does not shine on morals as it would, nor on the spirit and soul of others, for everything and everyone is a fraction, just a fraction, divorced from their true selves.

And so with what ordinarily would have become natural - i.e. to find goodness in the light and in the food, and to perceive through eyes of knowledge and of love - these natural talents God-given need to be rediscovered whilst walking this world.

In the spiritual worlds however, things are as they are, and have always been, and the difficulties just described do not exist.

Given half a chance the spirit comes to many realizations simply, emphatically, and magnificently and does not need to toil to arrive at the most wondrous portals of further knowledge.

And so this seeping disconnect between the consciousness in worldly life and the consciousness beyond, brings about a certain sadness and loneliness in all.

It is a state of discontent most natural to the problem just described.

And of course the more one leads a spiritual life with contemplations that take the consciousness up and out and into that realm the more one finds their coordinates to truth and to beauty and to wisdom.

The greater picture involves the kingdoms of Man to regain their bearings within the world and to stop the interference coming in from without.

There is a veritable noise that comes from the demonic infiltration sadly … it is not a noise to be heard as such, but it is as a noise that is disharmonious, interruptive, and overbearing.

For the weak-minded such interference is painful and overwhelming and often leads to further corruption.

This topic is not an easy one, but it cited in order that we can understand the difficulties of modern man today when one wonders about the confusion and loss of soul.

There are short term remedies and further on we will adjust. For the while we may steady ourself going forth with honesty as this will give one a firm railing to hold when the bearings are confused; and generosity as this is the work of the heavenly hierarchies (all heaven) when we give to one another in kindness, in thoughtfulness, in sharing.

It is not goodness for goodnesses sake alone (which of course will carry one well regardless) but goodness also for practicality in an environment that is waylaid with the heaviness of selfishness and confusion.

Goodness is not sentimental, nor for winning the favour of the higher realms - goodness is the direct passport into the higher realms - and it is the only way to save this world.

Finding One’s North Star- 5th November 2023

Both bearings and polarities shift continuously within the individual in relation to time and place; and these polarities relate not only to circumstance, but to those issues of health and to strength, resilience, vitality, wellbeing and to also conditions where there maybe too much vitality directed or misplaced inwardly, outwardly, or insufficiently - and added to this, even a virtue can become too much depending on the axis and the polarisation that occurs.

Similarly in life our personal coordinates readjust continuously. That is to say that our destinies are never static: they are dependant upon choices made daily, hourly, and minute by minute - and none of these are ‘bad’ choices we may add.

If a soul withdraws to heaven it is a choice that they themselves have made, and a happy one. However and not forgetting that this does not apply to murder, for murder is not a choice and nor is it karmic, and it does most definitely cut short a plan by which the starry overview has considered and hoped for eons prior to the incarnating individual.

All warfare is murderous regardless of the site so chosen or the falling one.

Defence is not however murderous by intent or action or consequence, yet retaliation without direct causation is.

Death can be confusing to the soul who has hitherto planned a long and good life and had it cut short so.

For every child who has been taken too early, there is an angel to cradle them immediately, soothingly, who delivers them into the arms of their loved ones in the spiritual worlds.

The children themselves are barely conscious in young life and in many respects this is a blessing when it comes to a premature death … for their recollection, if any, is very small, and their knowledge of what has befallen does not mark or mar the individual going forth.

Our physical bodies tremble, and have far more consciousness than is realized.

If you were to communicate with the brightest of the animal kingdom and befriend and raise them and then walk together, and feed the beast … as with, for example, the horse who becomes compliant and then a friendship and an understanding follows - or the humour of a dog with playfulness, and the accord, the shared astrality, the sympathetic resonance, the defensiveness - yes think of the astuteness of an animal you may have known, and then realise that your physical body, the animal body, is far far more intelligent, reasonable, cooperative and literally awake and aware, as it accommodates you within this earthly realm.

Added to this, everything we do impinges upon and within this animal. Our habits, what and when we consume, and then, most subtly, our personal tides of emotion, as well as the higher impulses of striving, of wondering, of virtue.

Our animal body is happiest when we are happy, and it is quick to be sad or inflamed when we are so.

And to picture this animal body with its acquired wisdoms, its working intelligence, parallels many of the attributes a toddler might have. It does not hold a cunning or an observation that extends past the feelings or the nature of the indwelling spirit - it cannot independently operate within the world of its own - but its understanding and its nature and responses do hold a sophisticated intelligence towards the soul within.

There exists an elevated, almost angelic nature, in so far as the body itself gives over to the soul, and its purpose is one of the greatest of cooperation generally.

It can though, just as a rabid dog in some circumstances - particularly with those of addiction or severe astral impairment - turn upon the soul within and be in conflict.

Remarkably, surprisingly, and confusingly and wonderingly, the very bodies of animals can be viewed in a similar light - in so far as they host a spiritual being who is not fully incarnate or representing themselves completely in the world - and there are two coinciding intelligences.

Physical matter of itself is the most mysterious to be had and it becomes ever more mysterious when it is imbibed with warmth and movement dancing throughout life in cooperative force.

And there are ever yet more distinctions with the interactions of a tree trunk, tree leaf and breeze and bird; insect and flower; sunshine and bee and blossom - it is not a linear relationship - and quite so also in relation to our health, our physical health in the world.

None of the things that we take into ourselves in the form of medicine and food works within us in just one particular way. Not only is quantity and quality and pedigree of importance, but also so do the coordinates of time have a bearing in relation to the spheres and their influences, the seasons and so forth - affecting the animal body and the soul - and all of these things change throughout the day and the year.

And whilst certain habits can provide a strength to conform with, it is most remarkably true to say that every individual will react at different times to different things in different ways accordingly from one another.

And so the role of the physician is never absolute. In relation to food and medicine we are always pleasing two masters: both the soul within and the body without.

The physical body generally has great instincts as to the foods it would consume and often the consciousness of the indwelling individuality can experience through the body what the body tastes etc but can be partial to its own likes and wants and needs because it is collecting subtle forces as well from the experience of the food - unless of course it has little value. And in this circumstance the understanding is not entirely mutual. But there is the possibility of the occasion for the individual within to ignore the needs of the body - this maybe for sleep for example, and in this circumstance there is a measure of hardship which follows.

None of ill health is to cast blame for the discord experienced or the failure or the breakdown of the body itself. There is a saying: “we live in an imperfect world” and it is most definitely true that this physical world is evolving and improving and adjusting in a most wonderful way. It is because of this evolving that we often come to an impasse - a conjuncture - where there are opposing forces or conflicting circumstances and the physiology breaks down. This is by no means a fault of the body or the soul: it is a consequence of living.

If we wanted permanence we would walk as spirit, but this remarkable etherial project of the physical world has many more mysteries that we at present do realise. Its prospects are so exciting because the collaboration of the realms and the various participants is an orchestration of Creation that has not been cosmically witnessed before: where the many beings of the hierarchies mix and mingle participating together with a sharing of experience like no other.
