2021 - Ringing in the New and Pondering the Bold; Quantum Space, Sci-Fi, Miracles and AI

“Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters too large for some of us to see.” - C. S. Lewis

"There is a theory which states that if ever for any reason anyone discovers what exactly the Universe is for and why it is here it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another that states that this has already happened." - Douglas Adams

There is always the possibility of a miracle. - Mom (One day I will get her to draw a diagram of her non-accident.)

Isaac Asimov's "Three Laws of Robotics"

• - A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
• -  A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
• - A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

And those laws - it turns out - may be unworkable. The alternative: 

"Instead of laws to restrict robot behavior, we think robots should be empowered to maximize the possible ways they can act so they can pick the best solution for any given scenario." - Scientific American

The time has come to shift gears. Reviving my wordpress blog. No set schedule. I can set a writing agenda but paranormal isn't a pony show. Life has a unique rhythm and timing. Often, the stuff I write about forces me to step back and play with it before giving it definition and words: Conscious Living & Wendy's Coffeehouse.

Might have a few more speed bumps working up to 2021. (Astrology suggests eclipses will be a factor. Also the Great Conjunction in Aquarius playing a role. I have a sense there will be a burp around December 12. Usually a good call to pay attention to the stars and planets.) Bustle/Astrology December 2020.

John Foster added a footnote to my interview with his daughter Kindra Foster. I've included that information in the show notes. John said a Native American woman told him the tribe had received a message about Kindra on the day before she was born. He asked how that message had been given. She said a voice spoke from a disc or light over the campfire. That interview is posted in the archives. 

Cheers!

Are we there yet? Covid, UFO and Halloween Headlines

"When I was two or three years old, another young boy and I were told that they (the mysterious intelligences) were here to change humankind and the way they did it was to enlist help from people like me (or us).

It was a voice who spoke at different times as a common man, a tall lizard-like being, a small alligator being, from a certain place in the atmosphere, and from inside my head." - John Foster, Eminent Discovery Vol. 1, Living Within and Beyond the Five Senses. Amazon

My second interview with John Foster is available in Wendy's Coffeehouse archives. Link. (The email correspondence has been posted in two parts on John Foster's Blog (Part 1) and I added that to mine as well. Link. We are continuing our exploration of this interaction by the hidden forces among us. Their activities continue. For what purpose? How do we connect? Why can't we see them?)

Decades ago, Experiencers like John Foster got a preview of future events, including some now playing out. As an example, John says a time travel experience he remembers from the 50's previewed events that transpired in the 70's.

Interestingly, one of the most distant imprints of the future presented buildings in the Midwest built and dedicated as housing for orphan immigrants from Central and South America.

In his 80s now, John is not convinced he will live

long enough to see how all he was shown will play out. But some events now on the horizon do appear to be in sync with the timeline he saw.

I continued to correspond with John after our earlier conversation and our interview included questions

we covered in the emails. However, the time was too short to include all of my questions so John agreed to let me post our email correspondence. You can find it at this site. 

From UFO Eminent Discovery Volume 2: 

"If you compare the mysterious cultural, scientific, and religious events of history with UFO Eminent Discovery, it will surely expand your knowledge of human life on earth. It is a story that will provide you with astonishing revelations concerning the true nature of UFOs, as well as an expanded view of the nature of our vast eternal universe." - Bob Teets, best selling author, investigative journalist, researcher, editor, publisher – former representative of the Human Potential Foundation.

FYI: Bob Teets is author of UFOs and Mental Health. The following quote is included in the High Strangeness Interview Transcript with Patrick Huyghe.

"My book is based on the briefing Laurance presented to Pres. Clinton's science advisor . . . a year after that, President and Mrs. Clinton vacationed with Laurance (Rockefeller) at his ranch in Wyoming."

~ ~ ~ 

Following up with John Foster - I had some additional questions referred to in our email correspondence.

Our conversation continues on my other blog. John has two blog posts that include our email Q&A: TalkingtoNightlights. 

I want the fortune cookie that foretells a future where the present isn't overwhelmed working out the kinks from the past.

“It can be very dangerous to see things from somebody else's point of view without the proper training.” - Douglas Adams, Mostly Harmless/Amazon

 
Reincarnation and past lives are the topic of my recent conversation with Dr. Bernie Siegel, posted in Wendy's Coffeehouse archives. Link. 

Author of several books, Love, Medicine and Miracles was the initial best seller. In his first book of fiction, Three Men, Six Lives, one of the characters was developed from his own past life memories. 

We also talk about how his current life experiences include an uptick in paranormal encounters since the death of his wife. He says he feels her as a constant presence.

Stories Bernie shares from his patients and his own life are proof that, while we don't have all the answers for why some people heal and others don't, we do have proof that miracles can happen. Because they do. 

  

2020 headlines are delivering a delightful serving of weird, odd, offbeat and fringe.  

• A Witch was it? Apparently, one gave the President Covid. For real? Vice.
• Navy says UFOs are real - still dogged by little green men asides. NPR. 
• Toxic Caterpillars that look like toupees. Don't touch. Nope. AOL.
• Loch Ness Nessie buzz: "The most compelling sonar images of a 32-foot long object, some 500 feet below the loch's surface." Inverness Courier.
• UFO curious: The Calvine Incident. Release blocked by MoD until 2072. And the question: "By the time the world gets to see the file, the two witnesses will be dead. It is crazy. What are the authorities trying to hide?" The Sun.
• Ahead of the game: Guy who patented the UFO. YouTube. 2018 worth repeating.
• Eddie Van Halen died. Outstanding 2017 interview demonstrates his guitar skill. YouTube.
• Covid safe. Flaming Lips concert audience will be in bubbles. Rolling Stone.
• FYI - Neck gaiters got a bum rap. University of Georgia study in what "seems to be the first actual face mask and neck gaiter study." Best result: Gaiters made up of two to three layers (polyester and spandex) provided a 96 percent reduction in respiratory droplets. Yahoo. (Bias: I own the Eddie Bauer version.)

Missing 411.

Cases involving missing children who claim to have been helped by large dog or bears are curious. David Paulides notes a couple of those and says he isn't ready to draw any conclusions. No doubt, they remain fascinating.

 

- Working on another interview with Experiencer John Foster. 46 years of contact and interaction with UFOs is an incredible database. While there seems to be great interest in the topic and in nuts and bolts UFOs, there is still an avoidance or simply a lack of awareness regarding those who have reported lifetime encounters. 

John's background as an engineer makes him uniquely qualified to add insight into the machinery or lack of machinery manifested during an encounter. Will update when I have more information to share.

- Seeing footage of the Ariel school children included in James Fox's newly released film The Phenomenon is a reminder that the film about that incident is still waiting in the wings - now titled Ariel School Phenomenon - it has been a work in progress for several years. 

Film is finished but no public release date to note. However, there is increasing activity and promotion on the Facebook page. Link. 

 

- After the conversation with Bernie Siegel about Carl Jung, I discovered an interesting prophecy. Jung's Prophetic Visions are listed here. Here's hoping the deathbed vision is several decades further out.

Astrologer, Linda 'Moonrabbit' Zlotnick, Sci-Fi Short Film: CTRL Z, plus a nod to all excellent Time Travelers

The only way we can fix and solve the problems of the world is by changing consciousness. You can’t do it by laws or infrastructure of the past. But if you raise somebody’s consciousness, then the laws change accordingly — the way we do business changes, and the way we treat each other as humans changes. - The Edge Magazine, A Frequency Catalyst: An Interview with *Mas Sajady

An Election Forecast with Moonrabbit. Expect the unexpected. Wendy's Coffeehouse Interview.  

Linda Zlotnik's personal story offers concrete evidence of Astrology at work in the everyday life. Moonrabbit/Linda's chart readings of her relationship with her deceased twin Lou Ann offer corroborative information validating the ability of an Astrologer to highlight assets, faults, talents and limitations and identify potential hardships, challenges, life-lessons and successes by "reading the stars". 

Our previous conversation about her book, Star Sisters is in the podcast archives. 

She writes about her recovery from grief. The takeaway for me is Linda's re-birth and healing. That interview begins with an LSD trip epiphany. Linda is liberated from a self-limiting box. Reality is an illusion.

In reconciling the soul-shattering, mid-life death of her twin, a discovery is made. Linda learns to do Death Charts and realizes her atypical chart reading can also benefit others. Related information in a previous post. 

The focus of our conversation this time [with a definite nod of approval from the twin on the other side] is on the political arena and the indication of continued chaos for the remainder of 2020.

What are the contributing planetary influences? Moonrabbit identifies several sources. Two major players in the election are affected by a solar eclipse in December. For President Trump, Moonrabbit says the chart suggests hidden revelations and out-of-the-blue surprises between now and the end of January 2021. 

The influence for Kamala Harris appears more overt and positive. Whatever the outcome, results will soon be visible for both in the headlines.

Wendy's Coffeehouse Interview, 8/9/20/Sunday is Natalie Sudman.  Application of Impossible Things, Amazon.

Archaeologist for the Bureau of Land Management. While working for the US Army Corp of Engineers in Iraq, the vehicle she was traveling in hit a roadside bomb. Natalie was blown up. 

During her NDE, she says she encountered beings who seemed like old friends. Their interaction included determining what parts of her body to heal and what issues to leave for her to work through as part of her recovery.

When she volunteered to work in Iraq, Natalie said she did consider the potential danger. A surprise was that others around her had not. And, in talking with Natalie, it becomes apparent that she thrives on diverse scenery and might easily become bored without a certain element of risk in her environment. The risk was all too real. And the reward? She says it was worth it to be able to check in and validate some of her assumptions.

Natalie shares her story here (Intro by Dolores Cannon - now deceased).

 

 

Natalie also does readings but is booked through the rest of 2020. Try for 2021 if you are interested.
