Losing Faith in Spirit – What Does it Mean?
Read More: Losing Faith in Spirit – What Does it Mean?Recently, I have had many people tell me that they are struggling to keep their faith in Spirit during these challenging and changing times. Some of these are long term followers of spiritual traditions and people who have strong practices. They are wondering why, even if they pray or meditate every day, their lives are so difficult and why many of the life experiences they pray for just never seem to come about. It appears timely to address this challenge at this juncture since it seems to be an epidemic. What makes the doubt so important is that without a spiritual path at this time, you are most likely toast.

New Moon Update ~ September 14, 2023
Read More: New Moon Update ~ September 14, 2023The New Moon in Virgo is Thursday, September 14 at 7:39PM Mountain Daylight Time (MDT). Dear Friends, This New Moon marks a turning point from a place that may feel like everything has come to a still point where choices can take you in any direction. This is a preparation for change and an opportunity to practice Recapitulation and Release as we reflect on the past, where we have been, and where we wish to go in the future. Make sure you find time for this inner process and trust your intuitive wisdom especially where the outer world can make little sense. It is also a good time to take a practical approach to organizing, and catching up especially around finances, projects and the calling in of the support you need.

Discovering the Power of Perception
Read More: Discovering the Power of PerceptionIn this article we are going to revisit the topic of perception and how important changing our way of looking at the world and ourselves is in order to cope with new realities…. Some of the things I am going to say now reflect my own bias based on what I believe the long-term prospects of life on this planet will most probably be. Despite what appears to be much evidence to the contrary I believe that, come what may, the human race has already decided to have a future on this planet and that we will find ways to thrive and transform ourselves as a result of and because of a radical elevation in consciousness that is already beginning to occur.

When interest in some of these plants and chemical compounds like MDMA and LSD in the nineteen sixties and seventies arose showing much promise as healing compounds, great fear among conservative government officials and other traditionalists rendered most of these them illegal and they were made schedule one drugs, a felony if someone had possession or consumed them. Researchers were no longer allowed to study them and they were off limits in every way for quite a few years.

5 Year Cycle
Read More: 5 Year CycleMany of you have shown interest in the Trends talk reference to a special five-year cycle of change that begins in 2023 or, in other words, this year. Not being an astrologer, I cannot speak in those terms about the next five years so I will use my own way of describing the cycle which can best be characterized as change, change, and more change. As we pointed out in the Trends talk, 2023 is a year dedicated to cleaning up all the of the emotional and energetic detritus that has been brought to the surface by the big challenges we have faced in recent times…
