“Eastbound and Down”

“Loaded up and a truckin’, we’re gonna do what they say can’t be done.” A song by Jerry Reed, made famous in the soundtrack of the 1977 movie “Smokey and the Bandit”. An iconic film with defiance as its theme.

This catchy tune is making a big comeback as the Canadian Convey is rolling its way across Canada. A massive gathering of big rigs, peacefully converging on the City of Ottawa to protest and request abolishment of Covid mandates. Peacefully, with no reports of disruptive actions, but with determination. These hard-working Canadians, who bring the goods needed to stock store shelves, are standing up to their government and demanding that they be allowed to freely move about. They are not against the jabs, just the mandates that require them, along with a “medical passport” and unnecessary quarantines. They believe in and represent the freedom of choice.

I have a lot of respect for people that can roll thousands of pounds of steel down a highway. Who can back up 65 feet of truck into a skinny alleyway. Who can spend days on the road, mostly alone, just to transport fresh food for us to enjoy. These people are necessary to our survival and should not be hampered by unnecessary rules. Think of the money, not to mention – rotted food, that is being wasted. You know those beautiful raspberries that turn moldy an hour after you bought them? Probably got held up at the border because someone breathed on another human.

Your personal opinion regarding Covid and the jabs, is just that: personal. A mandate of anything related to that takes away your personal choice. Medicine began with the oath of “do no harm” and patient autonomy. Your health, and that of your minor children, is your decision. For a long time, people have been making the choice to opt out of potentially life-saving treatments due to personal choice. What if you had cancer, but were unwilling to have surgery because the risk was too great – but the doctor told you it was mandatory, did the surgery anyway, and you died? Oh, the shit would hit the fan. There’s a reason why medical treatment is a choice. So why is This suddenly different? Did we all get dumb all of a sudden? Are we too stupid to know what’s good for us?

If you are okay with allowing someone else to tell you what you HAVE to do with-or-to your body, what’s next? Maybe MREs to eat, because the trucks are no longer allowed to deliver fresh food. You think I’m joking or crazy, but you ever eaten one of those things? Freeze-dried goulash and cardboard bread. You’d be happy to eat a half-moldy raspberry after that.

This convoy isn’t a bunch of half-crazy addicts about to mow down the country with thousands of pounds of steel. They are driving on behalf of you and your ability to get fresh, nutritious food (and other goods) quickly and easily. They are people trying to make a living and feed their families, just like you. They don’t care whether you get jabbed or not, only that you – and they – can choose. Because without choice, we are nothing. God gave us Free Will when we were placed upon the Earth. Do you really want to disappoint God?

P.S.: remember, there was a follow-up song “West Bound and Down”. Success in Ottawa might send those big rigs in another direction.

Happy 2022 – The Year of YOU

Forget the “I’m gonna do ___” resolution nonsense. It does nothing but provide you with an endless loop of procrastination, and things to blame. It is time to walk the life you only talk about. Go into your Heart Center and figure out what that means. How do you want to live? What are you passionate about? What do you enjoy? What steps do you need to take to live as the person you want to be?

Well, so-and-so says. . .. Do they live your life or do you? There is nothing wrong with doing research on something that interests you, and maybe a method of learning how to do it. But ultimately it needs to feel good and right for you, and not just because someone else says so.

We have been living in a time where many so-called experts tell us how, what and when to do something, regardless if it is a good thing or not. THEY ARE NOT YOU. You get to decide what you do. (Note: I’m not talking about criminal actions or being an asshole. Good thoughts, good things only, People.) And how about those of you who are too lazy to take charge of your life and constantly say someone or something is going to “save” you. How’s that working for you? No one is going to save you. I know I’m being a hard-ass, but I get really tired of listening to people who give their power away instead of taking responsibility for themselves. Get off your dead ass and do something for yourself! Say NO to things you don’t want, and YES to things that stir your heart.

Remember, we are each a Child of God. We were created as humans, but with a Divine Spark within us so that we remember WHO WE ARE. Put a torch to that Divine Spark, get off your lazy ass and build yourself a life of meaningful activities that bring you abundance, prosperity and contentment. Create it! Honor your incredible human body, use your amazing complex thought process, love yourself with intensity, and listen to the Divine Guidance within your soul.

Now if that’s not the best way to start the year, I don’t know what is.

Don’t Kill Spiders

What?! Aaak!! I read a cartoon this morning that went something like this: That spider you just killed probably thought of you as a roommate. Did you know that? No, you respond. See, you only ever think about yourself.

That cartoon speaks to me in many ways. First, I have a fear of spiders. I know they are necessary for eating bugs, but I don’t want them inside my home. Cleanliness helps to eliminate bugs, along with dirt and debris that can draw in other pests like mice and rats. So the spiders gotta go.

It also speaks to me of my belief in “Do No Harm”. That could mean don’t kill the spider in spite of the fact that they eat bugs. I can also equate this to the current mood of many people telling YOU that you MUST do this “thing” in order to protect THEM. Isn’t that like giving spiders free run of your home? Aren’t these people causing YOU harm by not allowing you the ability to care for yourself – or in this case – preventing your home from being invaded by other more troublesome critters? And, by you not killing those spiders, how is that going to protect these other people? They don’t live in your home!

So, if you decide to agree to someone’s demand that you do something to protect them, or allow your home to be overrun by spiders, you might want to take a peek at their behind and see if a twitching little tail is attached. Rats and mice do not care about your wellbeing, and will completely take over if you let them.

Fill-er Up!

Remember the days of full-service gas stations? The attendant would come out and put gas in your car, clean the windows, check the oil and put air in your tires. Sigh. Would that those services come back, although if you ask nicely, the guys at the tire shops will air up your tires. But a full tank of gas is a blessing indeed.

Your inner fuel tank also needs to be kept full, and I don’t mean your tummy. Your essence, your Inner Light, is your most important fuel tank. It keeps you going when times are tough. It brings inspiration when you are problem-solving. It brings peace when you are stressed. And now more than ever do we need to keep that tank filled up.

We are living in trying times (well, that’s an understatement, Lorrie). Yes, but I’d rather not go into detail about those “trying” times, as they can be controversial and most of you know what they are. Everyone has their own viewpoint, and version of the truth, but the reality is that things are heating up. It’s quite likely that more of those “trying” topics will be revealed, so filling your inner tank is kind of like stocking up on toilet paper. You never know how much shit will come out. The thing is, if you aren’t internally prepared, you may experience a level of disbelief, outrage, depression or other intense emotions that you will find difficult to process. There may be some intense jubilation, but what happens when the party has run out of confetti? How will you feel inside? Good? Ready to help out? Or will you feel completely fucking empty?

Many years ago, I went through intensive energy healing sessions. I later took classes on how to do the same work. Energy healing very often involves clearing your emotional layer of devastating external events that you never processed at the time they occurred. If the emotional reaction is not released through physical action: shaking, crying, screaming, then the energy can stay in your physical body and create illness. The process of clearing can take some time if you have experienced similar subsequent events. You might have internal dialogues with the people involved, which can clear them too, even though they won’t know it. Your energetic body (the aura) may also need some repair. A good energy healer can help remove blocks, implants and repair tears in your aura. They may even need to perform soul retrieval, as sometimes a portion of your soul will pull away if the trauma was severe.

Once your energetic body has been cleared of old trauma, you will feel lighter, maybe even joyous. You’ll think “great, I’m done, I can go”. Wait up there, Buttercup, you don’t want the swamp to rear its ugly head again. The most important aspect of healing is filling up your inner tank with pure Divine Light. You see, if you don’t fill up the empty holes left from the clearing, something will find its way back in, and it might not be what you want. Invoke The Violet Flame and allow it to pour into you with the intention that you are Whole, Complete, Healthy, Loved and Divine. This will keep you centered and peaceful when the shit hits the fan in the outside world.

The World Stage is presently a battle of Good vs Evil. Oh, it might play out as politics, economy, health, or specific names and faces, but it’s still ultimately the time when Spirit is reclaiming the Earth. We’ve lost our way, and act like throwing out all our stuff is how we’ll feel better. Sure, if you know that stuff was bad for you, but what if you thought it was good and you find out it wasn’t? Like a perfect red apple, that cut open, has a rotten core. If you place all of your happiness on the achievement or release of something external, where does that leave you?

Basically, empty and probably fucking hopeless. Time to fill-er up.

External events are lessons, tests and initiations to bring you back to the God-spark within you. They don’t define you; they teach you to remember. Go within. Fill yourself with Divine Light. Remember who you are: a beautiful, loving spiritual being experiencing learning events in a physical body. When you do that, you will fear no evil. You’ll see the truth in all situations and you’ll live your life with joy and abundance.

And you might want to wash that windshield so you can see everything clearly.

Firewalker

I listened to this excellent video from Lorie Ladd: Facebook , where she speaks of learning to “stand in the Fire and not get burned”. What does this mean?

The Ascension energies are ramping up and moving through every aspect of life. You are being shown your inner demons, wounds, unresolved trauma, everything that has held you back from being your highest and best self. And you know what? There is no longer any place to run to and hide. No more putting this off, ignoring, denying or enacting any other coping mechanism. It is time to dig deep and heal once and for all.

It’s not easy, which is why you’ve been in denial all this time. But it will be worth it. No one can do this for you. No one can tell you how to do this. It must come from within. You can access your spiritual guides for assistance, but because of free will it is still up to you.

You may be triggered in all areas of your life. What is the common theme? Do you always feel “less than”? Work from within, not “well, this person needs to act this way”. So why do they act this way towards you? Is it because you have let them cross your boundaries? Do you let them tell you what to do? Only you are in charge of your body, mind, heart and soul. Healing yourself into assertiveness is not becoming a bully – that’s just another layer to heal.

Running away only delays the healing process and will continue to put you in situations until you do. “Same tune, different words.” It is time to face the Fire.

The Calling (reposted)

It’s 1984. The George Orwell version. A recommended read and eerily prophetic. Shhh, someone might hear you thinking.

I am starting with a music file for you to listen to: Mike + The Mechanics – Silent Running (On Dangerous Ground) (Official Video) – YouTube Recorded in 1985. The lyrics “can you hear me calling you” seemed to be an important message. So let that run in the background while I explain.

Much like the dystopian world created by Orwell, 2020 started a cycle of breakdown. Every aspect of our lives is being affected, and even controlled: physical and mental health, economy, politics, religion, government, medical systems, media, families, children, relationships, you name it, everything is a shitstorm. It has become difficult to decide who or what to trust anymore. Organizations and media, once the purveyors of information, openly dispense misleading propaganda. Many of them create fear and division by condemning anyone who questions what they promote. We have been trained to be afraid and filled with hate for a perceived threat that has no basis in fact. Do you even know what you are fighting for?

Like the Phoenix bird, the old outdated structures must burn to ashes before it can be reborn. I’m not speaking of a literal fire, so please do not go out and buy matches, lighters and flamethrowers. Even if you like roasted chicken.

We know that the Great Awakening has begun. We know that getting rid of what is not for our Highest Good is part of the process. We know that we are moving into Service to Others (compassion, cooperation) and out of Service to Self (ego, corruption). We understand that we are going through an energetic spiritual shift. But I think we are missing the true meaning. We are hearing The Calling.

The Calling is the invitation to return to God. Not by death, but by connecting. Returning to God is not about joining a church or religion. It is acknowledging that you are a Divine Child of God and that God is available to you at all times.

That may not be an easy task. Until recently, I know that even saying “God” was very difficult for me. I grew up in a religious family. I was taught that God was a fire-eyed, white-bearded, old guy up in the clouds who would rain down hellfire and lightning if you even gave someone a dirty look. I was not worthy to speak to God. It took me several decades of study and research to work through religious belief cultures. I developed spiritual beliefs and could reach God by speaking to the Angels. If you have been following me and have read my books, you know that I use the words “Spirit” and “The Universe”. That was mainly to keep things generic, as there are many name translations of “God”. However, deep down I still harbored the fear of saying the name. Why has this recently changed? It is because of the Great Awakening. Our Divine Creator has decreed that Earth shall be freed of the negative, dark controlling energies that have run rampant for centuries. God has placed a great number of Light Warriors upon Earth to fulfill this task. It is God’s Plan, not human’s plan, and is happening as it was decreed. If there has ever been a time to have Faith, it is now.

In a time when everything seems to be falling apart, you must look within yourself. Everything you are experiencing is God’s way of helping you to realize that you are a Divine Creation. God is helping you to release a lifetime of negative programming. If someone or something triggers your fear, anger or grief, dig deep and discover why you feel that way. You have to give yourself the time and space to experience those feelings. Stuffing them down got you to this point, so they won’t go away if you continue to do that. It’s okay to get mad. Go beat up a pillow so you don’t harm someone, but get it out. Have that epic meltdown; tears release stress hormones. If you are afraid, put yourself in a safe zone. Get those feelings out and start talking to God. Ask for help. Ask for a miracle. Ask to feel safe. Ask for whatever you need. God already knows what you need and has been waiting for you to ask. Nothing is off the table, except the desire to cause harm. NO ONE gets to do that.

When you develop a connection to God, you develop your sense of worth. With that comes discernment. You will know within you what is right, wrong, good, bad or whatever. You will begin to trust yourself and receive guidance from God. Then you can look out around you and know what is for your Highest Good. God’s messages come in many forms. Maybe song lyrics will hold a message (are you still listening to “Silent Running”?). Maybe you’ll find spiritual teachers who resonate with you. Or you’ll read an article or passage in a book. Whatever form that takes, you will know inside you that the message was meant for you.

Remember that you are part of the Human Collective, and your energy contributes to the overall energy of Earth. You have a choice and it is time to pick a lane. First of all, be in the driver’s seat of your life. Secondly, choose your navigator – God or Satan (there are only two choices). Third, what energy do you want to contribute to the planet? Majority rules, you know. Quit being a victim unless you want to be miserable forever. Once you have made your choice, stand your ground. Unless your choices include harming activities, no one gets to dictate to you what to choose. Standing your ground is not easy and you’ll have days when you want to crawl into a hole and never come out. Take a break, do some self-care, but get back up and dig deep for your faith. God has your back and will help you. But only if you ask.

Can you hear God calling you?

I Want It Now!

This video message may or may not resonate with you. If not, just close it before you get heartburn. It is a very thought provoking message by Juan O Savin: Juan O’Savin – A summary of what is going on. – YouTube

If you know who Juan is, then you will understand the message. If not, it is about the Plan of current events. Again, this may not be for you.

The message is simple: have patience and trust God’s Plan. This past week had many folks upset, because certain actions were expected. It wasn’t the right time. Yes, we want it now, but you want everything to be completely finished so we don’t have to ever go through this again. 2020 Deja vu? HORRORS!! Think about the people who have planned this and have dodged bullets and bombs for the last 20-60 years. You can damn well bet they want this over and done. Maybe a month’s long vacation in Tahiti or someplace after they have banished evil for good.

We are ready to move forward into the New Earth. We want to clean up the mess and begin to rebuild society into a marvelous, abundant, happy and peaceful place. I can’t imagine anyone not wanting that. It is our transformation into the 5th Dimension. Notice that I wrote “begin to rebuild” and “transformation”. This is not a “won and done” situation. Like anything it is a process, and part of that process is cleaning up the shitpile inside of you. “You can’t take it with you” is very appropriate.

God and all the spiritual beings are helping you with this process. How many triggers have you encountered in this past year? Have you experienced the “Dark Night of the Soul”? Maybe more than once? Maybe you encountered health issues. Maybe around safety and security needs. Maybe your relationships became strained or even separated. Instead of going into victim mode, give thanks that your soul wounds are coming up for healing.

And maybe you thought you had already healed your “stuff”.

Think of your wounding as layers of an onion. The original trauma occurs and then as you grow older, layers build up each time you are in a situation that mimics the original wound. So healing happens in layers as you keep peeling back each one. I, too, thought I had “fixed” everything, but my relationship just hit a boil.

I have been in a romantic relationship for 13 years. I have been previously married. I am an Empath, and like most of us, put my needs last and attract narcissistic partners. Empaths often have childhood trauma of abandonment and unworthiness. I hate conflict and when things get bad, I leave. Early on in this relationship, there were some commitment issues but I thought they had been worked out. I overlooked some of the flaws, because overall, we got along well and had fun together. I shoved down my resentments of lack of support, and in typical Empath fashion, overcompensated by giving too much. I taught myself how to back down on that. I retired last year and he picked up more of the financial support, so I thought that was okay. I took on more of the household responsibilities thinking that evened it out. And then April arrived with all the “you know what” Thing. Just so you know, I am a researcher and truth seeker. I have been like that since I was a child. Being newly retired, I had ample time to dig in. And I did. And I learned far MORE than I ever could have imagined. Some of it horrific and almost unbelievable. (Cognitive Dissonance) And then I determined that I like Orange better than I liked Blue, but my partner absolutely hates Orange. I think you know what I am talking about.

I am not the type of person to push my opinions or beliefs on others. I will “test the waters” and see where you might stand on an issue. If it doesn’t resonate, I’ll let it go. No worries. If it does, then I’ll talk to you about it and share the information I have discovered. So I did that with him. That’s what you do in a relationship. Normally, if it doesn’t resonate you’ll get “I don’t agree, but I love you anyway”. Not so in this case. Name calling and shaming was what I got in return, to the point of being told that I was insane and that my opinion was wrong. He has distanced himself from me (within our house), and even wrote an email listing my supposed insane beliefs.

And that was my wake-up call from God. We all know that opinions are like a$$holes and sometimes they both stink. But they are just personal opinions and we have the right to have them, with the only exception of those that would cause deliberate harm to someone or self. Other than that, NO ONE gets to tell you what to think. I am not a parrot. This was a wake-up call to teach me to stop giving my inner being, my worth, my validation to someone else. That I am a Divine, Sovereign Child of God. That I am deserving of all of God’s gifts. That I have the right to be treated respectfully, with honor, and be in a supportive, loving, balanced relationship. That all my life I have attracted little-boy men who would have temper tantrums if I didn’t give in. Why? Because I never learned to love the little girl within me. That because she was unwanted, and had to serve penance in the form of not being a burden to them and letting them have what they missed out on. (as my mother so often reminded me)

W.T.F. I thought I had worked through all that. I did the inner child therapy and learned how to nurture myself. But what I have just realized is that – while all good – it was just another mechanism of self-sufficiency so someone else didn’t have to support my inner child. WOW. As I said, healing comes in many layers. So my spirit guides pretty much had to shove me to the wall and make me face my “teacher” in order for me to learn how to teach others how to treat me. So I have been doing a lot of praying and asking for guidance on this. I have to continuously fight my behavior pattern of leaving the situation as They have told me I’ll just keep going through this pattern until I stop and face it. (Read about dealing with narcissistic people for more info.)

Now he’s not a bad man, but he does have some level of narcissistic traits, and I have enabled him to run wild with that. Think eight-year old spoiled brat. I never had children so I lack the necessary skills of preventing this behavior. However, it’s never too late to learn.

So the point of this very soul-baring message is don’t ignore your triggers. They are God’s gift to help you see the Divine within you. You don’t need to carry your soul wounds around with you anymore. You are totally and completely worthy and deserving of everything. Welcome to the Ascension.

Focus!!

Right now, it is very important to FOCUS on what you WANT in your life. Ignore the fear porn going on around you. Put your attention and your thoughts into creating POSITIVE things in your life. Want to stay healthy? Focus on that. Need a job or money? Focus on what that looks like. Good relationships? Put your thoughts into action.

Watching external events is like being stuck in The Matrix. Channel your inner Neo and step out of it by putting your attention into positive action.

You’ve got this!

The Pressure Is Building

Today is December 14th and the Solar Eclipse. The energies today feel like they are pressing down upon us, sort of like squeezing a boil. (I know, gross.) Anger and frustration might be rubbing on your nerves. Breathe. Take as many quiet breaks as you can. We’ll get through this.
