Becoming more Profound and Increasing in Frequency December 27, 2006

Aloha and good evening, it’s another coffee driven late night blog entry sponsored by none other than Bong Brothers (big up to the BB), on lovely Mamalahoa Highway, definitely a store worth stopping at when in South Kona and needing nourishment and/or palatal satisfaction.  BUT…

BUT.

My coffee consumption is leading to detoxification, the likes of which have manifested as pimples on my face.  That leads my ego into a bit of a caffiene driven mini anxiety attack which results in an increased heartrate, a burst of adrenaline, and a strong desire to quit drinking coffee.  It’s a vicious cycle, and I will bring it full circle somehow.  In a manner that leads to the greatest potential of infinity, amen. 

But enough about me, let’s talk about you.

And me.  Because we’re all one.

Or we could move past the whole unity thing and take it back to an individual level, in which case I want to draw attention to our tendency to isolate ourselves in the face of unity. LOL.

Not really. 

I want to take a minute and give a big “hooray” to my daughters father and his wife (as of next week sometime, that is), for concieving!  My daughter is hoping for a girl so she’ll have a brother and sister, Blessings to them and lot’s of love. 

Hope everybody had a wonderful solstice, hope you were blessed to recognize it in some way, and use the energy to slingshot yourselves into your greatest potential.  I know I did.  LOL!

This Holiday Season has been full of Jubilation and Celebration and my circutry has been so stimulated by all the Spirit abounding.   I had the honor of meeting a gentleman who is said to have completed Einstien’s Unified Field Theory, also known as the Theory of Everything.  As you read this, I am manifesting the honor of speaking with him again and learning what I am supposed to  from his teachings.  Do me a favor and throw some love into it.  OOOOHHH.  I felt it. Thanks…..

I also want to take a minute give some love to my homie and fellow goddess, Zhenya Delate, she’s the One who inspired me to write this Blog and helps me with my computer when I need it.  Did I mention that she allowed me to pirate her internet access when we were neighbors?  She also invites me to all the cool parties and loves me for who I am.  I love her more than I care to elaborate.  (sigh)

Anyone seen Borat yet?

Much love to you all, I think I’m out of space to type, but I’m overflowing with space to time.  So I’m going to work with what I have and fill it with all the Love and Angels it will hold.  and so it is, amen.

WoOa-HOooo! December 21, 2006

So i’m going out, man, going out of my twenties.  Heading into the thirties.  Supposed to be married by now, aren’t I?  Supposed to have been married AT LEAST once by now, eh?????

(sigh)

I’m in heaven.  I live in Paradise, the food is wonderful, the air is thick with the Spirit.  SPIRIT! There are beautiful people everywhere, and the water is…..so freaking blue I want to scream.  Thank you Divine Love.  Thank you , Thank you….

So what I’m wondering is where did all the faith go?  Faith in a One True God (which also goes by the name “Infinity”), faith in other people, faith in Love, faith in Our Selves.  When did the world fially let go of the hope.  When did we stop believing in our Fairy God Mother?  Even yet, when did we stop acknowledging our faith, when did we cut off it’s flow of love? Is that the programming of early childhood, when we learn that magic is of the devil and women are weaker than men?   Like an arm that has fallen asleep in the  middle of the night, I’ve woken up in the middle of my life and I couldn’t feel my heart.  I’m so glad that I’m not afraid to love life with the level of passion that I do, so thankful that it didn’t take me longer to realize what a precious gift I’ve been given. 

If there is any one thing I would reccomend to everyone out there, it would be this:

-Forgive yourself of anything you’ve ever done “wrong”, and see the situation as a learning opportunity.

also: 

-Follow your hearts dream and keep your intentions in the best place as much as possible.  If you fail at any time to do so go back to the first reccomendation.

-Don’t settle on love.  If you fail to do so at any time, it’s gonna hurt, take a moment and go back to the first reccomendation.

-Forgive others of their wrongdoings, we’re all human and perhaps your forgiveness will serve as an inspiration.  If you fail to do so…..you know, the first…

Life is a big journey.  Thank You to Whom It May Concern, for giving me such a blessed path to travel. 

Amen.

So Sunday I went with my daughter, her friend, and my roomate to the New Thought Church in Kealakekua.  They have different speakers every week talking about SO many different things,  soooo many different perspectives, that’s what I like about the place.  Sunday there was a woman doing a shamanic “journey” , we started off with a smudging at the door, she brought like twenty or so handmade drums and rattles that we played for about ten minutes.  She taught about the four directions, the spirits and meanings  of them, we were a big circle and took time to greet each direction appropriately.   After a while we all lay down on the floor (there was a large assortment of pillows to choose from) and had a big naked orgy.

Just seeing if you’re still paying attention.

No really, we lay around in a circle, our feet pointing out and she played a drum and walked us through a personal journey to find our spirit animal.  To make a long story short……I found myself in a cave, surrounded by animals, and none of them was mine.  I came out of the spiritual adventure sans spirit animal and I’m okay with that.  We got up and “danced our animal”  while shaking rattles and moving in a circle.  I just danced. 

So, I’m turning thirty in a couple of weeks, I’m still sleeping around and praying for my soul mate.  I really thought it would be over by now.  And yet I’m glad it’s not and that ’s probably why I’m still not settled down.  Not to mention the fact that I hang out with a bunch of non comittal, unattached, single men who average five or so years younger than me and have NO children.  Duh.  Really, there are some sweet single fathers out there, but I only know one and there’s a waiting list.  

My best friend on the island went out on a date with the father of my youngest child last night, and I babysat her son so she could do it.  This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius, friends, all bet’s are off.

I’m gonna rip my friends CD’s to my computer and check my email.  Then I’m going to pack my daughters travel bags, she’s flying to Arizona to hang with Granny for a couple days, and going to Idaho for almost a month to be with her father and their family.  My angel’s been downhill skiing since she was three years old.  That’s my girl. 

I’m rambling, I’m searching for something that’s on the tip of my tongue.  I want to grab  you by the arm and give you a big hug.  Blessings and I’ll see you on the flipside.  AMEN

Day of the Fairy Queen, Saturn, and Ops December 18, 2006

Greetings all!   I was looking in my “witches almanac” and found that today is not only the beginning of Saturnalia, but it is also called the “day of the fairy queen”.  While I’ve found no other resource that cared to delve into the “fairy queen” subject, there was plenty on Saturnalia.    

December 17 Saturnalia
The Roman festival of Saturnalia was celebrated for seven days beginning on December 17th. It honored the corn-god Saturn and his consort, Ops, the goddess of plenty. Normal activities were suspended during this time period. No wars were fought. No business was conducted. Schools and courts were closed. People spent their time gambling and feasting. Roles were reversed with masters waiting on their servants. Everyone was free to say exactly what they pleased without fear of the consequences, so this was a time for great ventilation of feelings and political satire. For an ancient account of this day, and the Roman calendar in general, Blackburn and Holford-Strevens recommend reading Macrobius who describes an imaginary debate among pagan intellectuals taking place on Saturnalia, possibly in 383.

A Lord of Misrule was often elected to mock the role of authority and direct his followers in ribald and humorous activities. Some folklorists (Frazer and Graves) believe he was a stand-in for the King, whoand was sacrificed at the end of the time period in the King’s place but during his brief reign of thirty days, he assumed the king’s perogatives, dressing in royal robes, doing anything he wanted and commanding obedience.

Ever heard the phrase “king of the bean”?

The Greek God equivalent to Saturn, is Cronus. Saturn carries a sickle, like the Grim Reaper. Cronos, who ate his own children rather than let them surpass him, gives his name to terms like chronological. Both are Time-Gods, who bring death and limitation and may fight to preserve their reign, even though they know it is time for them to be replaced with new life, just as the old year must die to give way to the new, a struggle depicted in many winter solstice customs .

People gave gifts to each other, usually small items, like candles, terra cotta dolls, sprigs of holly, which symbolized wishes for the new year.

December 17 Sow Day
In Orkney, a sow was killed on this day. The pig has long been a significant animal at this time of year, a symbol of abundance, especially in the north .

here’s an interesting wikipedia link that i found while researching saturnalia…..

A Kallikantzaros (Καλλικάντζαρος) pl. Kallikantzaroi is a malevolent goblin in Greek and Cypriot folk tradition. They dwell underground but come to the surface from 25 December to 6 January (from the winter solstice for a fortnight during which time the sun ceases its seasonal movement).

It is believed that Kallikantzaroi stay underground sawing the World tree, so that it will collapse, along with Earth. However, when they are about to saw the final part, Christmas dawns and they are able to come to surface. They forget the Tree and come to bring trouble to mortals.

Finally, on the Epiphany (6 January), the sun starts moving again, and they must go underground again to continue their sawing. They see that during their absence the World tree has healed itself, so they must start working all over again. This happens every year.

There is no standard appearance of Kallikantzaroi, there are regional differences on their appearance. Some Greeks have imagined them with some animal parts, like hairy bodies, horse legs, or boar tusks. Others see them as humans of small size smelling horibly.

The Kallikantzaroi are creatures of the night. There were ways people could protect themselves during the days when the Kallikantzaroi were loose. They could leave a colander on their doorstep: if a Kallikantzaros approached for his evildoings, he would instead decide to sit and count the holes until the sun rose and he was forced to hide. The Kallikantzaroi also could not count above 2, since 3 is a holy number, and by pronouncing it, they would kill themselves. Another method of protection is to leave the fire burning in the fireplace all night so that they cannot enter through there.

Legend has it that any child born during the twelve days of the Saturnalia (17th through 26 December) was in danger of transforming to a Kallikantzaros for each Christmas season, starting with adulthood. The antidote: Binding the baby in tresses of garlic or straw, or singeing the child’s toenails.

In Greek language Kallikantzaros is also used for every short, ugly and usually mischievous being. If not used for the abovementioned creatures, it seems to express the collective sense for the English words leprechaun, gnome and goblin.

you know, i was born on december 30……i’m small(ish!), can’t count above two, a bit on the hairy side (if i don’t tweeze, shave, and wax), and a tad mischevious………hmmmmm.  it’s all making sense now. 

Holy Guacamole`! December 14, 2006

Goodness Graciousness!  What a busy week, this whole “worldwide irrigation” mission is intimidatingly large.  So much to know, and I’m learning as I go along about the entire concept.  Also, I printed out the book that I’ve been working on since last May.  Getting it edited (edited enough to take to an editor-REVRUND!) , and writing in all the blank spots between.  It’s my passion and I’ve enjoyed every minute of this experience….sigh……..

Passion……I’m unable to speak of the passion that fills my soul……..it’s too much right now…..

And the children, eh?  They are so beautiful, no?

The other day my daughter went to a birthday party in Kealakekua.   She arrived with friends of hers, their mother being a personal friend of mine.  Anyways, when I got to the party to gather my child I found all the children out in the large farm area playing on a huge homemade slip and slide that ran down a hill and ended in a giant pool.  It was too much fun, really, and the children were loving it.  I checked in with my baby girl, and left to look for some grown ups.  What I walked into was a monthly meeting between members of the Waldorf School Community, and I couldn’t have been happier.  I actually tried to leave, but knew too many of the people attending,  someone got me a chair and before I knew it I was giving my opinion on the new Charter School they’re beginning.

I mentioned that I intended to enroll my son when his speech was more mature, and wondered it they had a speech therapy program that might help him…..

It was perfect timing.  The Waldorf School is, in fact, capable of helping Joey now.  They can also take him as soon as January for at least a couple of days a week.  If anyone out there isn’t familiar with the Waldorf School, you are encouraged to check them out.  

Much love to all who check in every now and then, my heart is on fire.  I pray that this month finds you in good standing with destiny, and the recipient of many blessings. 

My roomate and I made some Wassail, an old holiday beverage.  It was a practice run for the next batch.  You know, I turn thirty on the thirtieth.   Lord help us all. 

Prayers and Incantations like Ressurecton and Reincarntion. December 8, 2006

Is it me or are they both pairs of similes?  Am I taking it too far?  No, not even close, I’m just putting it into perspective.  Life is like a painting, we’re all standing around the same picture and looking at it from our chosen location.  Perspective….It’s relative, and that’s whats so refreshing because relativity is broad.  Real broad. 

For what is a prayer but an incantation?  Repetition and requests.  Pray to God, pray for strength, pray for help, it’s a request to the Divine Power that governs your Dogma.  That you allow into reside in the Creator box. 

Or don’t believe in God.  Believe in nothing but Chaos, this infinitely large energy force (sound familiar) of “nothingness”, and manifest creation via your will.  Where is the intent?  Verbal Manifestation is verbal Manifestation, call it what you want.

Believe that the Earth is alive and that all residing including the minerals and plants are conscious co hosts in this big movie of life.  Recite your intentions to the cells around you, breathing life into the Void.  Pagan creation.

There is no difference in these things, aside from technicalities.  Same result, a simple provocation of the environment, practiced with varying intent and general purpose-technicalities. 

And yet people have spent considerable amounts of their own (and others) energy to detract from the personal power of fellow humans for possessing a perspective that is different in such a manner previously mentioned.  Am I rambling????? I am, aren’t I?

Please say something if I do it again.

Ressurection and Reincarnation, very much related to the Divine Interpretation of your liking, is to me the same thing with different names.  Did you know that Early Christians believed in Reincarnation?  Until other members of the church started killing them.  Then they stopped.

Moving on…..Done some research on Global Warming, Irrigation History and Methods,and am continuing to play phone tag with the INEHL.  It’s hard to play phone tag when I don’t have a phone.  Like playing tag all alone. 

But I’m onto something, and I’m wondering how one goes about developing an organization that focuses on inland irrigation, drinking water producton, and power generation. 

There is so much potential there.  And I’m not going to covet this amazing idea, if anyone out there could develop this faster and better than me PLEASE DO!!!!!  AL!  OPRAH!  Hello, haven’t they heard about this website yet?

Meanwhile, this two weekend project is turning into a three weekend project.  And I like it.  

DID YOU KNOW that every year our ocean rises two millimeters?  Not that long ago it only rained one millimeter in a year, but global warming has changed that. 

There are Ninety Five Trillion gallons of water contained in one millimeter of the oceans water.  This was calculated based on the surface area  of the ocean reported by Wikipedia.  We get that much EXTRA in one year.

And we’re a decade into this excess so that’s like nine hundred fifty trillion gallons of water that we could use and the earth wouldn’t mind a bit.  We could fill up a couple lakes with that.  Maybe some bottled water.  And power a house or two.  You might even be able to power an entire hippy commune with nine hundred fifty trillion gallons of hydroelectric power. 

So much love going out to all of you reading this, and your families. 

Divine Inspiration…….Or how I learned to love the NELHA December 1, 2006

When my ex and I were first deciding whether or not we wanted to pack our things and move to the Big Island we did a ton of research.  We studied the economy, weather, school systems, colleges, etc, and in my studies I found a particular interest in the Natural Energy Laboratory of Hawaii Authority (check out www.nelha.org).  I remember seeing it on a map of the island and saying to my ex , “Man, I’d like to work there someday” , just the idea of a Natural Energy Laboratory was inspiring.  At the time my mother and stepfather were in Alaska for work, and we were house-sitting for them, so we used their Internet access to research this place (my ex also used it to download tons of porn-which consequently jammed my mothers computer-we had to get a professional in to unlock it  LOL).  When I saw all of the things they were doing at the Lab I was blown away, and then I had an idea.  What if we created a series of canals and pipelines along with a slew of Natural Energy Labs all along the coastline of America and used them to irrigate our drought infested landslide?  This place also creates bottled drinking water and that’s another issue that would be helped. 

You can’t tell me there couldn’t be some government program created to aid in this venture.

Anyways, I could go on, but I have a play-list to create for tomorrows show and it’s already nine at night.  I’m going to cut to the poop, so to speak.

Tonight I watched “An Inconvienent Truth”, the movie by Al Gore (remember him?), and I was floored at the information he presented.  Basically, the world is melting, and the ocean is rising.  Oh yeah, and droughts are getting worse.  He’s looking for answers and perhaps this may be something to help……….We’ll see.

I don’t have the energy to create an entire show on the subject that could be ready by tomorrow morning (102.5  KCOF!!!)  but I’ve already contacted the Lab and plan to schedule a meeting with someone about the topic.  My goal is to put together a show along with relevant information and send it to Mister Gore.  If anyone has any information that might help in any way, feel free to share, my ego is not attached to this.  If someone wants to go over my head and do this exact same thing before me- HAVE AT IT.  I just want to see a happy ending, I’m not worried about the technicalities.  BARON!!!!  

P.S.  Many prayers and blessings going out to the people in the freezing Midwest, may you find warmth and safety.  Also much love and light going out to the Phillipines, these typhoons are wild.  It aint over, everybody, it’s only beginning to get weird.  Praise and love to you all.
