The world looks for superlatives. Who is the fairest of all? Who is the smartest of all? Who is the most foolish of all? Who is the biggest? Who is the smallest? Who wins what in the Guiness Book of Records? Who becomes Miss America in one year and then is forgotten soon enough?
 
What does any of this matter? What is all this but a passing fancy. Enjoy as you enjoy, yet what matters any of this to your soul? Now, listen, your soul likes you. Your soul enjoys you. In this way, your soul enjoys your distractions. It makes the best of the ride you take together. All the while, your soul beckons you toward a grander frontier. Will you come?
 
You carry your soul within you, yet you can also consider that it is your soul who carries you. Your soul jaunts off with you beyond the commonplace. The soul – your soul – is not always nourished in this land of Earth that sometimes feels far away from even acknowledging the existence of soul. Your soul doesn’t weigh much in terms of the gravity-filled world. You can’t wrap your soul in gold. You can’t even wrap your soul in aluminium foil.
 
Your soul doesn’t have interest in gold or food or all the matters - even the serious life-saving matters - that your mind and body are presently indentured to. Your mind and body are alert to danger and risk. Your soul is alert to God and a whole realm that you hardly dream of.
 

The healing properties of music were well known to the peoples of the past and they made considerable use of it. Among primitive peoples songs and musical instruments such as the drum and the rattle were used not only in order to increase the effect of herbs or drugs, but also as independent means of healing. Such practices have persisted until the present among American Indians. Paul Radin, in his essay on “Music and Medicine Among Primitive Peoples,” reports that “among the Ojibwa, for example, the so-alled jessakid practitioners are supposed to function simply by sitting near the patient and singing songs to the accompaniment of their gourd rattles. Similarly, among the Winnebago, those who have obtained their powers from the bear spirits can heal wounds by merely singing their songs.”

It was known by the ancient civilizations that music has healing properties, and they deliberately used it for such purpose...

As the new light and vibration comes to your Earth, you may find those around you moving to opposite ends of the spectrum. One side will be full of fear, guarded, defensive and gravitate to those of like mind. The other will continue to be and send Love regardless of the situation. Neither is right or wrong….it just is.
Each of you have ‘triggers’ from your life experiences and most will react accordingly. Be different! Before you act, take a look at why you are feeling what you are feeling, where that feeling comes from and if you are truly being attacked. Give yourself the space to contemplate the reality of the situation and act from a calm space. Sometimes, that extra moment will allow a change that was meant to happen all along. ~ Creator

HJ: In every sense, your dreams are just as real as your waking reality.  However, dreams take place on a higher plane — the astral plane, where the normal laws and rules of physical reality don’t entirely apply.  This allows reality to become much more maleable and responsive to your thoughts and whims.  And furthermore dreams are reflection, in large part, of the contents of your subconscious mind and so they seem random, but are really just the symbolic expression of forgotten memories and beliefs and patterns.

What is the Intervention Agenda here on Earth?

Increasingly, spiritual community sites are talking about an Interdimensional Intervention that’s been taking place here on Earth. Such discussions are met with anything from courageous support, quiet agreement or with resistance and outright incredulity. “Where are they?” is often asked “Where’s the evidence?”

Well firstly the Intervention can be observed by its effects – the creation of a synthetic reality of control. But if you actually want to ‘see’ these entities, it is with the inner eye that you must look. We must be fully tuned into our feelings and thoughts. It is only then that the patterning of behavioural experiences yields a top down, multi-dimensional view. From this perspective, what might the Intervention Agenda be?…

There’s a lot more to be said about the spiritual benefits of music than we covered in part one, and we’ll continue our discussion here. Like I said before, I think music’s spiritual value is mostly unappreciated in our society, and most of the mainstream music we’re subjected to is void of any real awareness or spirituality.

That doesn’t mean there isn’t a lot of genuine, valuable spiritual music out there, but you have to search to find it and you’ll probably be disappointed if you look for it in the mainstream.

Music was never meant to be something hollow that pleases the senses but offers little else in the way of spirituality or upliftment, and I think it’s an important helper for anyone who wants to spiritually evolve.

A look at the psychoactive brew that brings users a spiritual payoff for their “work”.

Just before dusk, 18 strangers entered a yurt on a Midwestern homestead. Peruvian tapestries decorated the walls of the large, round structure, and rattles stood poised for ceremony.

The participants — professional men and women ages 35 to 65 — put on comfortable clothing and set up sleeping bags, pillows, and blankets. Everyone got a plastic bucket, cheerfully colored in green, red, or blue. “It looks like a big pajama party,” joked the host, Kim. The shaman, a North American who had trained in South America for more than a dozen years, took a seat at the front and led the group through a conversation about what to expect.

This month is marked by the third of four total lunar eclipses separated by approximately 6 months - tetrad - which will occur at 12:00 UTC on April 4, 2015. The Moon will gradually get darker and then take on a rusty or blood red color. The eclipse will be visible throughout most of North America, South America, eastern Asia, and Australia. 

Some shooting stars associated with the Virginid meteor shower are expected to be visible each night from April 7 to 18, however, this shower will reach its maximum rate of activity on April 12 when the Moon will present minimal interference. The maximum rate of meteors expected to be visible from a dark location is around 5 per hour (ZHR).

Lyrids, an average meteor shower, usually producing about 20 meteors per hour at its peak will reach its maximum rate of activity on the night of April 22nd and morning of the 23rd. These meteors can sometimes produce bright dust trails that last for several seconds. The first quarter moon will set shortly after midnight, leaving fairly dark skies for the what could be a good show.
