I smell the fear that reigns inside, encouraging that Voice to keep whispering negative platitudes, sowing the seeds of doubt, paralysing you with lethargy and binding you fast with procrastination. ‘Don’t sign this… don’t make ‘that’ arrangement… don’t listen to ‘him’ as he is not telling you the truth or ‘he’ is unsure himself… don’t start that enterprise… the timing is not right… you don’t have the full information, yet… you’ve been misled.. nothing good will come  of it’. The list is endless, and ironically (hopefully unintentionally) exacerbated by those who read signs without any deeper and real understanding of the nature of those signs.

It has been going on for as long as humans have divined meaning, but has proliferated in the aftermath of the printing press, when dumping the unhealed interior of someone’s mind onto a wider and under-educated field became possible. Seeking to make a name/ a living/ to survive the more drastic the prognosis the more almanacs were sold, regardless of whether what was being forecast was apt, accurate or purely a projection of an individuals state of reality, spoken as it is was coming from the authority of the gOds.

And so it continues to this very day, in the aftermath of the explosion of ‘free speech’ on the internet – unintentional fear based comments that draw people away from the real truth, that continue to perpetuate people to live conditionally, chained to an ever cycling Wheel, never truly growing or expanding their consciousness and awareness.

There are those who continually try to remind people of the deeper and self-responsible process of living co-creatively with a deeper consciousness. But those messages are not sexy, dramatic and sell well. And so the fear-paradigm continues under the guise of ‘helpful’ information.

Of course there are times when reflecting on whether the way that you are thinking/ writing/ speaking is apt and perhaps you need to take time back and poignantly engage silence as opposed to uttering words for the sake of them; and of course there will be times when things will not work out as smoothly as your ego desires them. But those times are individualistic and not times wherein all 8 billion living souls experiences them right here, right now. But hey, who I am,  but another one of those deluded souls, peddling a living by encouraging you to look above and without, instead of below and within…

Welcome to three weeks of communication hell, folk, as the universe always intended to make things go awry for nine weeks of every year, just to keep you on your toes and to mess with your minds.

There maybe another meaning, but that would require process and time, and who has that anyway. Besides, that would be encouraging, supportive and empowering, and that, my friend, is dangerous, freeing and awakening, and we cannot have that. Can we?
