Fairy Tales: October 2012

Terence McKenna
*"Only psychos and shamans create their own reality"
Janice Joplin
*B eing an intellectual creates a lot of questions and no answers.
*Don't compromise yourself. You are all you've got.
Joseph Campbell
*Follow your bliss and don't be afraid, and doors will open where you didn't know they were going to be. The bliss is the message of God to yourself.
*All you can learn is what your own inward life is and try to stay loyal to that.
*No one in the world was ever you before, with your particular gifts and abilities and possibilities. It's a shame to waste those by doing what someone else has done.
Eckhart Tolle
*Some changes look negative on the surface but you will soon realize that space is being created in your life for something new to emerge.
*Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness. How do you know this is the experience you need? Because this is the experience you are having at the moment.
*Whatever you fight, you strengthen, and what you resist, persists.
*I am the hole on the flute that Gods breath flows through.
*The primary cause of unhappiness is never the situation but your thoughts about it.
*You are here to enable the divine purpose of the Universe to unfold. That is how important you are!
Seth Speaks
*You are not the creators of the universe, but are the creators of the physical world as you know it.
*YOU create your own reality.
*Thought is energy.
*To apply to reincarnation relationships this is all is highly pertinent to your current daily experience. If you hate another person, that hate may bind you to him through as many lives as you allow that hate to consume you.
*You draw to yourself in this existence and all others, those qualities upon which you concern your attention. If you vividly concern yourself with the injustices that you feel have been done to you, then you attract more such experience, then it will be mirrored in your next existence.
*... you project your own energy out to form the physical world. Therefore, to change your world, it is yourself you must change. You must change what you project.
*If you imagine dire circumstances, ill health, or desperate loneliness, these will be automatically materialized, for these thoughts themselves bring about the conditions that will give them reality in physical terms. If you would have good health, then you must imagine this as vividly as in fear you imagine the opposite.
*Physical life is not the rule. Identity and consciousness existed long before your earth was formed. You suppose that any personality must appear in physical terms. Consciousness is the force behind matter, and it forms many other realities besides the physical one. It is, again, your own viewpoint that is presently so limited that it seems to you that physical reality is the rule and mode of existence.
*In your system of three-dimensional reality you are learning about mental energy (also called thought energy or psychic energy) and how to use it.
*The intensity of a thought or image largely determines the immediacy of the physical materialization. All such images or thoughts are not completely materialized, in your perception, as their intensity may be too weak.
*If the ego were aware of the constant barrage of telepathic communications that impinge upon it, it would have a most difficult time retaining a sense of identity.
*A negative thought, if not erased, will almost certainly result in a negative condition. It does not do to repress negative thoughts, such as fears, angers, or resentment. They should be recognized, faced and replaced.
*If you would have good health then you must imagine this as vividly as you fearfully imagine ill health.
*A man's thoughts and dreams are more far reaching than he knows. They exist in more dimensions; they affect worlds of which he is unaware. The are as concrete, in effect, as any building. They appear in many guises within many systems, and once created cannot be withdrawn.
*There are also shared or "mass" dreams. In these mankind deals with problems of his political and social structure. In these man dreams individually and collectively of ways in which change could occur. These dreams actually help bring about the resulting change. The very energy and direction of these dreams will help change the situation. The solutions reached are not always the same as those he accepts in the physical world.
*In larger terms there is no evil, only your own lack of perception.
*Each of you exists in other realities and other dimensions, and the self that you call yourself is but a small portion of your entire identity.
*For its own purpose, and because of its limitations, the ego chooses a single event from all the probable ones. Until the ego experiences the event it is only one of all the other probable ones. It becomes actual in your reality only when it is experienced by the physical self.
*No event is predestined. Any given event can be changed not only before and during but after its occurrence.
*What you call God is the sum of all consciousness, and yet the whole is more than the sum of Its parts. All portions of All That Is are constantly changing. All That Is is constantly seeking to know Itself, for seeking itself is a creative activity and the core of all action.
*The Inner Senses reveal to us our own independence from physical matter, and let us recognize our unique, individual multidimensional identity
*When every young man refuses to go to war, you will have peace. You do not defend any idea with violence.
Yefim Novikov
*Reality is purely the perception of the individual mind. It follows, that since no two minds are alike, no two perceptions of reality are alike. It further follows, that what reality is to one, may seem complete madness to someone else.
Buddha
*We are what we think, all that we are arises within our thoughts. With our thoughts we make the world.
*Believe nothing, no matter where you read it or who has said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and common sense.
Jesus
*And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
*For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?"
*Judge not, that you be not judged.
*You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.
*Know the truth, and the truth will set you free
*Neither shall they say, See here! or, see there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
Gandhi
*"NO" uttered from the deepest conviction is better than a 'Yes' merely uttered to please, or worse, to avoid trouble.
*A small body of determined spirits fired by an unquenchable faith in their mission can alter the course of history.
*Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well.
*Be the change that you want to see in the world.
*Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is the truth.
*First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.
*I am prepared to die, but there is no cause for which I am prepared to kill.
Carl Jung
*There is no coming to consciousness without pain.
*The least of things with a meaning is worth more in life than the greatest of things without it.
Margaret Mead
*I was wise enough to never grow up while fooling most people into believing I had.
*I must admit that I personally measure success in terms of the contributions an individual makes to her or his fellow human beings.
Mary Baker Eddy
*Disease is an experience of a so-called mortal mind. It is fear made manifest on the body.
*Spirit is the real and eternal; matter is the unreal and temporal.
Thomas Edison
*I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.
*Non-violence leads to the highest ethics, which is the goal of all evolution. Until we stop harming all other living beings, we are still savages.
Albert Einstein
*A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.
*Education is what remains after one has forgotten what one has learned in school.
*Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.
*I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.
*If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough.
*Imagination is more important than knowledge.
*Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
*Intellectuals solve problems, geniuses prevent them.
*It is strange to be known so universally and yet to be so lonely.
*No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it.
*Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.
Mother Teresa
*I was once asked why I don't participate in anti-war demonstrations. I said that I will never do that, but as soon as you have a pro-peace rally, I'll be there.
*It is easy to love the people far away. It is not always easy to love those close to us. It is easier to give a cup of rice to relieve hunger than to relieve the loneliness and pain of someone unloved in our own home. Bring love into your home for this is where our love for each other must start
*I see God in every human being. When I wash the leper's wounds, I feel I am nursing the Lord himself. Is it not a beautiful experience?
*I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much.
Agartha
*Power on a larger scale: The world needs to learn of group dynamics in order to move into its new course of harmonious realignment with spirit. The actual units of energy generated, increase in direct square proportion to the size of the group. The actual units of power to change and create thoughts and actions grow in a great proportion when in a harmonious group than in an unintegrated group.
Group power equals the square of the number of people within a group. If there is a group of 100 people who share a common vision and interact to achieve that goal, then the number within the group (100) squared equals the group's power (100 X 100 energy units) or 10,000 units of generated energy.
It is also possible to effect the necessary planetary changes through combining smaller but already aligned groups. The key is man considering himself in the broader context of planetary being and working toward this end rather than seeing himself as only one insignificant part of a fragmented world."
Eleanor Roosevelt
*Great minds talk about ideas. Big minds talk about things. Small minds talk about other people.

Actually, the coming Mercury retrograde should prove to be a fairly productive time with many things coming into very clear focus around elimination, purification, and regeneration through organized action, leading us all to translucidity and the ability to tune into higher knowing. What follows begins the exploration about why.
Now that Venus and Saturn have been moving forward things have been proceeding with more precision and momentum since June. The last Mercury retrograde in July-August helped us retire from many old dramas and quarantined us from situations so we could learn to play or be more naturally creative.

Right now the only planets that are RX are Jupiter and Uranus, with the latter about to go stationary direct in mid-December. That means for the next few weeks, just about every planet is moving forward, either into unknown zones or re-tracing familiar zones to get perspective, as in the case of Neptune and Pluto......

As Mercury is squaring Neptune now through mid-November, remember to get clear about where you stand relative to the various stages and phases of things that are happening in your life. Please refer to the recent article on“Order of Priority.” Knowing that can make things go more smoothly in this time.

That aspect also shows we cannot afford to lose focus and put ourselves down or allow ourselves to be taken for granted. Train the mind and speech to express ONLY your ideal, and no lesser fogs and confusions. This is a time to cultivate the ability to express subtleties and your understanding of how the hidden side of life works. Cultivate discernment of knowing what is core and what is peripheral, how the parts show us the whole, and open to discovering that which is under daily life and its currents......
For now, be very alert to what happens November 7-11, since that’s when the Sun will septile Pluto as it transits the future Mercury stationary direct degree. You may see what’s coming in late November through January very clearly. Another time to keep your eyes and ears open will be December 3-7 when Venus finishes the transit of the Mercury SD degree.

Overall, we’re moving into a period where we’ll experience a lot of compression, showing us what to eliminate and how to reorganize our magnetism. Explore the concept of translucency during the coming weeks, since that will be a major theme in how we express our wisdom, poise, and calm understanding.

Sometimes getting out of our own way is the best thing to do, as well as reduce our density so that more light can pour into our vehicles. Though the coming weeks may bring aggravations, it will also show us how to get focused as we prepare to ride out the major league Yod, or “Finger of God,” in December. I’ll be writing about that sometime in November. For the rest of the article....
