Inundation
What suffering! The inundation of devastation is very unbearable.
Hurricane Katrina's effects are beyond the pale. Ole Miss is ravaged.
New Orleans is ruined for some long time to come. Mal temps roulez???
Even the Blues has got the blues. In Iraq, aside from the usual
grinding insanity, someone yelled - bomber - as religious throngs
jammed a bridge over the Tigris. A thousand people died hideously by
trampling and drowning. There was no bomber. Fear marches on.
America's oil gluttony is getting a karmic shot in the gut. More lack
attack shadows the addictive greed. The tsunamic waves rippling and
ripping through the economy will be exponential in their effects. Is
the economy as robust as the pundits purport? Some recent figures from
the Feds: real income has decreased for most Americans over the last
five years; over one million people joined the poverty strata in the
last year. The Feds don't put the cost of buying a home in the consumer
price index; the monthly mortgage is included, but not the cost of
buying. Do you think living is costing more? Housing drains people's
savings into their investment. What if the investment shrinks? What if
many thousands chronically don't make their mortgage payment because of
spiking energy costs. Watch what happens. The squeeze is pulsing below
the surface and now it rises loud and feared. Remember to breathe; take
walks; talk. But most importantly claim your own consciousness and
begin directly clearing your own karma. The spin is dizzying,
disassociative and so sufferacious if you are busy realizing the mind.
Realizing your higher self, higher consciousness, Nirvana, soul and all
the other variations of projection of the mind won't get it done.
On the karmic wheel, there is a rapid amplification of causes and a
rapid amplification of effects. This is what I have been adamantly
writing and speaking about for some years. My talk entitled: Beyond the
End Daze speaks to all of this. Catch me on tour this fall as I present
in NE, CO, CA and AZ (or anywhere else you'd like me to come). In a
nutshell, the End is going to wash up on the shores of the mind in the
Dream over and over and over again. Sinking or swimming will not cure
the noise of it all. Going higher or more pure or into the Silence or
the All One or heaven or Doing Your Work or refining the ley lines or
or or........ it's all just changing seats on the Titanic. Do you see
that?
You are not your soul, your mind, your body, your energy or any and all
of the fractured projections of the Dream of Creation. You are your own
being, your own consciousness. You are not Consciousness, Higher
Consciousness, Divine Consciousness, God, Love, Chocolate or whatever.
All of all of That is projection. It is the stuff of the mind. It's all
mind, from rocks to Cherubim, and it ain't you. Are you done yet? Don't
say hallelujah. Claim your own being and clear your own karma. You'll
actually be more useful to sufferers, much more than if you are all
hooked in, gooed in the connections of co-depended loveola. Being
present doesn't get you tsunamied with those that have been tsunamied.
You'll just be with them and all parties involved can make more real
time, clear and even caring decisions.
The noise of it all is ramping up beyond what you can
imagination........ but you are already feeling it, down in the belly.
Hanging on, climbing up, hunkering down ain't gonna git it like it used
to be got. You have a choice. If you identify in the mind, all aspects
of the mind high and low and All, you will have a destiny rather than a
choice. The storm surges of destiny have begun. Don't buy it. Dissolve
it for you. Your suffering will not be helpful to others in a great
deal of suffering. Hiding and denying are suffering too. Compassion, if
it is worshiped, creates more suffering because it is grotesquely
identified and sucking on the suffering. Just give cuz you want to
give. Help cuz you want to help. And drop all the goofy, hooky stories
of LOL, Service and other projective blatherings. Be. Choose. Express.
You'll be able to hear what folks want and be able to perhaps meet them
with some assistance. No strings attached. Suffering folks are having a
hard enough time as it is without getting gagged on do-goodisms. I'm
writing at some length about this because we're going to have more and
more layers of old destruction and devastation karmas echoing out of
the bilge of the deep psyche at the end of the Piscean Age. At a point
you gotta let it go and that is individual and unique to the moment for
everyone. Take care of yourself so that you can be there for folks
without losing yourself into their cycle of karmic spiral. We finally
can't save anyone. Being present can make all the difference though.
Pluto goes direct on the 2nd at 6:44 am EDT. The New Moon in Virgo is
on the 3rd at 2:54 pm EDT. The 4th brings Mercury entering Virgo at
1:52 pm EDT. After shaking off the shock and numbness, folks will get
quite generous. Greed however is going to be a dominant theme. Don't
get caught up in the giving/taking thing. A lot of karma is coming down
for the old patriarchal greed barons. They've been getting theirs. Now
they'll be getting theirs! And the world will see. Offer what you want
to those in need but stay out of savioring projections. That's just
spiritual greed. The more folks let go of overlaying projections, the
sooner the karmic swings will settle. It seems however that this will
take a couple of decades. Doing Good must always manifest the Bad
doings. Choosing to give cuz you're choosing is simple, direct and
doesn't leave a nasty residue that begets more of the old loopy same.
If you like: what goes around, comes around and it's all good. Rotsa
ruck. Be directly intentional and cut out the refractive suffering.
Love at last sight is up. Unrequited love undertows are up in the
collective psyche. Let go of making it all real. Say hi; embrace if you
like, but don't bite into the rusty hooks while fishing around in the
sea of karma. You can appreciate those you have loved and have loved
you without the snaggery. These are still great days for manifesting
what you want. Let the fears burn off. Go for it. There can be some
grousing around. Let the grouses fly away to their victimage. It's
their problem and you need not have it foisted upon you. Go easy with
everything these days. Pushing pulls you into what you are afraid of.
Who needs it? Who kneads it? Not you. You are fine even if life is a
bit messy for you at this juncture. Enjoy yourself despite the noise.
Peace be what you are,
Mark
