390-IS THE NEW AGE REALLY COMING? | View Thread

Posted by Cynthia on February 2, 2013

I first heard of Ascension last fall. I think it was mid October when I stumbled on the matter while researching something completely different.

I was skeptical as first, even though I had meditated on and off for about 20 years. But the more I read, the more I became excited at the prospect. I was even having Ascension symptoms prior to knowing about Ascension.

I really questioned myself about the symptoms I was having. Were they just a convenient excuse to steer me away from what I thought I should be focusing on? Were they permission to get into some pretty weird behavior?

I decided I really had nothing to lose by participating in the increasing energy to create a better world.

But the more I participated, which was daily, the more I found myself transforming personally. I didn’t expect to “leave the planet” but simply wanted to join in its transformation. I felt honored just to be a part of it.

I notice other results. My acknowledgement and acceptance of the spiritual realm becomes more solidified daily. I’m much kinder to myself by allowing my imperfections, so to speak. I’ve accepted that I and everyone else can be spiritual and still have what is often described as very human flaws, although they really aren’t flaws.

They’re just areas for growth and that growth is guaranteed and unlimited.

I willingly asked for and received guidance and healing. I also received moments of grace and presence that served to validate my experiences. I’ve felt the intense energies and the lulls. I’ve been sent what I think of as signs for my personal reassurance, one of them being coins come upon serendipitously. (I’ve always intuitively considered that finding coins was the universe’s way of telling me that abundance is on the way.)

I think my background in Psychology helped prepare me to accept the miraculous and was a precursor to a heightened level of spirituality because of the link between forgiveness and healing, and accepting others exactly as they are.

But that was just the starting point, because adding spiritual practice accelerated my entire healing and growth process in ways that were truly awesome. As Marianne Williamson has said, “it doesn’t matter where we start.” We don’t really earn it based on what we have or haven’t done in the past, but we do build upon it.

I felt the conflicts of attempting to live in the so-called real world but somehow knowing internally that there had to be a better way to exist, to get things done, and improve conditions on the planet. There had to be a better way to influence and help others and the political situation, and move humanity forward and include the needs of everyone.

There is. And they range from reinforcing critical mass through meditation to expressing our voices through political activism to extending love and gratefulness out into the world. All of these, I’m learning, are far more effective than I earlier suspected.

	Ute Posegga-Rudel: Message from Our God-Self – Your Soul is Always Happy! Posted by Alice C on February 2, 2013 As channeled by Ute Posegga-Rudel – February 01, 2013 http://radiantlyhappy.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/from-our-god-self-your-soul-is-always.html VIDEO (recommended) MY BELOVEDS! I AM YOUR GOD-SELF! The wisdom of the ages is now arising in the heart of mankind. I AM Arising! Every heart is being now ignited by Me, but it takes time for many to recognize Me in their awareness! My Divine Love is now fully present on Earth and can be received by everybody that desires so. Those who turn their attention to the old times of separation and suffering will continue to experience this instead of My Bliss and the Light that is now given to all. Therefore be aware of your creator power! You who are already in tune with this great Divine Change are now given the task (if you wish), to help humanity to SEE and FEEL what is in fact happening! Those who desire to be happy, must learn to receive in their hearts My Light and My Love that is already here. They must be educated that they are the masters of their own Happiness in any moment. As soon as they merge with My Presence and the new Consciousness on Earth, their life will change dramatically, first inside and than outside. They are asked to perceive (or at least to presume) the Divine in all things, to allow all things and situations and beings to be illuminated from within, as they themselves recognize It in everything and everybody. If you do not do this you just continue the old ways of separation and of judgement! This is the time to recognize where you judge and where you have judged! But by all means not in a manner to judge yourself because of it, but only to notice, to love and accept yourself and let go, and allow your heart of love to shine forward instead! Beloveds, it IS a process in Consciousness and old habits must be given up consciously and be gone beyond! Do this in every moment! This is your service of Love, your service to the Light! It is all a matter of being aware of patterns that do not serve Me, your Own Divine Self. What counts are not the failures in this process but the Happiness in your Heart that wants to serve. Whatever happens in the near future, even if dramatic, can only be understood rightly beyond your point of view of duality and the conceptualizing mind. Because all that happens has been designed in your own Heart and follows your Soul’s plan to experience. You are not victim, but your Reality is Radiance! There is no good or bad, it is mere experience. A Soul’s development depends on those experiences and what counts is the prior invulnerability of the Soul, as the Soul is always happy as It always inheres in Me. It is the Soul that desires to experience and to know that there is nothing that can harm or even destroy It! And even what the mind perceives as misfortune is only a way of experience from the Soul’s perspective! This is the time where your Soul’s victory prevails, because all the means are given to you and all mankind! The forward-coming of your Soul is ending the illusionary dream of separation from your own Divinity. The old dark dreams of the lower mind are vanishing, and the Light of your Heart is shining forth! That is what you have been yearning for! And this is the time where your desire manifests! Beloveds, this is a process from inside out! If your perception inside changes, the experience of your outer world changes respectively! The state of the world that you see outside, is only a reflection of yourself. Even if you don’t yet understand! There is no coherent world in the realm of duality! This kind of coherence is illusion! Coherence only exists beyond or prior to duality at the Divine Heart! When your vibration rises, there is light everywhere. If not, then the lower mind is interfering! It is your greatest teacher and tells you where you still need to shift. It teaches you where you need to see the world with your Divine Heart. That’s how you prepare for the New World That Is Me. I AM your God-Self! Message conveyed by Ute Copyright© 2012.

	Quote: How Phobos was Determined to be Artificial Posted by Steve Beckow on February 2, 2013 How does one arrive at the conclusion that a “moon” is in fact an artificial construction? Thanks to Roth. We Are Not Alone – European Space Agency Phobos, the Martian moon is artificial claims European Space Agency Michael Tellinger, Unbuntu, Feb. 1, 2013 http://www.ubuntuparty.org.za/2013/02/we-are-not-alone-european-space-agency.html The prestigious European Space Agency (ESA) has declared Phobos, the mysterious Martian moon, to be artificial. At least one-third of it is hollow and its origin is not natural, but alien in nature. The ESA is Europe’s counterpart to NASA. Could this revelation motivate NASA to release the secrets it is harbouring? Don’t count on it… because if it’s artificial an alien civilization must have put it there. Russian astronomer, Dr. Cherman Struve, spent months calculating the two Martian moons’ orbits with extreme accuracy during the early 20th Century. Studying the astronomer’s notes, Shklovsky realized as the years progressed into decades, that Phobos’s orbital velocity and position no longer matched Struve’s mathematically predicted position. After lengthy study of the tidal, gravitic, and magnetic forces, Shklovsky came to the firm conclusion that, “ No natural causes could account for the origins of the two odd moons or their bizarre behavior, particularly that exhibited by Phobos. The moons were artificial. Someone or something built them. During an interview about the mysterious Martian moon Shklovsky explained: “There’s only one way in which the requirements of coherence, constancy of shape of Phobos, and its extremely small average density can be reconciled. We must assume that Phobos is a hollow, empty body, resembling an empty tin can.” For decades most of mainstream science ignored Shklovsky’s breakthrough work, until the ESA began to take a closer look at the odd little moon. ESA study declares Phobos not natural. The ESA study abstract that appeared in the peer-reviewed Geophysical Research Letters reveals that Phobos is not what many astrophysicists and astronomers believed for generations: a captured asteroid. “We report independent results from two subgroups of the Mars Express Radio Science (MaRS) team who independently analyzed Mars Express (MEX) radio tracking data for the purpose of determining consistently the gravitational attraction of the moon Phobos on the MEX spacecraft, and hence the mass of Phobos. New values for the gravitational parameter (GM=0.7127 ± 0.0021 x 10-³ km³/s²) and density of Phobos (1876 ± 20 kg/m³) provide meaningful new constraints on the corresponding range of the body’s porosity (30% ± 5%), provide a basis for improved interpretation of the internal structure. We conclude that the interior of Phobos likely contains large voids. When applied to various hypotheses bearing on the origin of Phobos, these results are inconsistent with the proposition that Phobos is a captured asteroid.” Casey Kazan writes in ESA: Mars Moon Phobos ‘Artificial,’ that “…the official ESA Phobos website contained explicit scientific data, from multiple perspectives, which strongly ‘supported the idea that this is what radar echoes would look like, coming back from inside ‘a huge…geometric… hollow spaceship’. In fact, they were the primary source of the decidedly ‘internal, 3-D geometric-looking’ radar signature. The concurrence of all three of these independent Mars Express experiments- imaging, internal mass distribution, (tracking) and internal radar imaging, now agreed that the interior of Phobos is partially hollow with internal, geometric ‘voids’ inside it. Meaning that Phobos is artificial.” In other words, Phobos is not a natural satellite, is not a “captured asteroid,” and is hollow. This is exactly what Dr. Shklovsky found back in the 1960s. Phobos was artificially constructed and placed into Martian orbit by…who? (Taken from a weekly report by George A. Filer – MUFON Director) Hi Miguel, This is an amazing discovery. I wonder if NASA has already come to this conclusion and if they already have plans for the MARS Rover to study it more closely. This is probably the most important discovery made and I am sure that NASA has already made plans to study it further. I believe that both organizations work very closely together and have probably already divised plans to do firther studies on it. GOD BLESS YOU ~Mike~ http://www.countryvalues65.com

	This Is What a Humane Economy Looks Like Posted by Stephen Cook on February 3, 2013 (Photo: Popicinio / Flickr) This Is What a Humane Economy Looks Like By Inés Benítez, Inter Press Service – February 2, 2013 http://www.ipsnews.net/2013/02/this-is-what-a-humane-economy-looks-like/ Malaga, Spain – The severe crisis crippling Spain is also sparking some creative responses, such the Okonomía project, a teaching initiative that helps individuals and communities to understand the workings of the economy and make more informed decisions to manage their finances. “Things have gotten so bad, with people out of work, losing their homes and watching their savings vanish, that something has to be done to economically empower people,” said activist Raúl Contreras, one of the academics behind this initiative that in February will open its first school in Benimaclet, a multicultural neighbourhood in the southeastern city of Valencia. Contreras – an economist who also heads the company Nittúa, which sponsors this project – spoke with IPS about the powerlessness and fear that is taking hold of many people who do not understand how the economy works and how it affects their lives, and are thus made vulnerable to manipulation. “Doubts, ignorance and fear – in some cases spread intentionally – lead to mistakes, anxiety and difficult situations that could be avoided if people are better informed and equipped to make decisions or choices,” Nittúa’s website reads. One out of every four economically active persons is currently unemployed in Spain, where dozens of families are evicted daily from their homes for failure to meet their mortgage payments, and the measures implemented by the right-wing government of Mariano Rajoy to address the crisis involve huge cuts to health, education and other basic services. Hundreds of thousands of people in Spain fell prey to “preferential shares” and other financial product schemes and lost all their savings. As the crisis deepened and banks became desperate for cash, they convinced more and more savers to buy these products, taking advantage of their lack of understanding of the ins and outs of investment, and using misleading and distorted sales pitches. Okonomía – which is financing its start-up needs through a crowdfunding campaign – calls itself a “popular economics school” that “develops dialectical educational processes, building on the reality and economic knowledge of each participant, to enable participants to understand their economic situation so that they can make informed and conscious decisions, both individually and collectively, that will lead to the transformation of society through economic empowerment.” The school is formed by professionals from the fields of economics and education and its activities include training multiplying agents who will spread their newly-acquired knowledge in their immediate social environment. “The school won’t solve people’s problems, but it will provide a toolbox to help individuals make more informed decisions based on their specific needs,” Contreras explained, highlighting the project’s cross-cutting approach to solidarity economy, as it emphasises sustainable alternatives. While the head of Nittúa stresses the solidarity aspect of this economic model, he says it is not the school’s intent to preach any one model or solution. Rather it seeks to give participants an understanding of economics in general, including a range of economic alternatives, such as ethical banking, responsible consumption, fair trade and the cooperative model. “A large part of society has realised that a different way of teaching economics is needed,” Carlos Ballesteros, a lecturer on consumer behaviour at Madrid’s Comillas Pontifical University, told IPS. “Ninety-nine percent of the world’s business schools stick close to the neoliberal paradigm,” which is profit-driven and based on maximising earnings. Ballesteros said that while Okonomía’s target public is civil society as a whole and its main objective is to teach and inform, on the understanding that “the economy is everyone’s responsibility,” it also aims to gather and systematise knowledge on solidarity economy practices that may prove useful to people working in that field. Okonomía offers semester courses, with in-person classes held every two weeks. The methodology is based on the popular education model developed by Brazilian educator Paulo Freire (1921-1997), who believed that “to teach is not to transfer knowledge but to create the possibilities for the production or construction of knowledge.” In each session an issue is presented and material is provided to facilitate reflection. “The learning process is a group activity. The classes are not lectures, but rather dialogue-based and interactive,” Contreras said. He added that after each session the conclusions drawn from the group’s discussions are published online and posted in an intranet, which will form a database of the school’s results, a sort of “Wikipedia of Popular Economy”. Economist Arcadi Oliveres, one of Okonomía’s advisers, said this project is valuable because it “seeks to reveal to the people the underlying workings of the economy” and “because we’re really in the dark” when it comes to the financial world, he told IPS. Oliveres, a professor of applied economics at the Autonomous University of Barcelona, believes that “people don’t know that there are alternatives to the traditional economic system” and calls for critically aware citizens who can make informed decisions. Independently of how financial markets and governments behave, the actions of common citizens also have an impact on the economy, so that people must be conscious that they too can make irresponsible choices as consumers or that their deposits can go to financing environmentally-harmful corporate activities, the economist argued. “We have to start asking ourselves where our money goes – what do I do with my savings, where do I deposit them and why? – and learn to take control of our finances,” Contreras said. The aim of the school is to help people “understand and then make free, but conscious decisions,” he added. The expert noted that he has not found similar projects anywhere else in the world and that Okonomía, which combines a methodology inspired by Paulo Freire with social innovation methods, has the potential to be replicated outside of Spain “with the support of the social fabric of neighbourhoods and communities”.
