New Hearts and Stars

Words fail on this day, September 11th, the day the world heart broke open seven years ago. I've faced my own fear of the Orcs, and will be standing with candles in our city park, with the simple intention to believe in the power of the heart. What kind of soul force, or heart force can break the hypnotic, almost otherworldly spell we're living under? Ever get the sense that we're facing a global demonic force with terrible power? Movies like Zeitgeist and researchers like David Icke have done much to pull back the veil. There's an exciting new back to the Constitution movement in America, with sites like Break the Matrix.com and Reclaim.org.

But there's a metaphysical element to what's going on that makes us vulnerable to highly advanced black magic mixed with righteous greed and destruction. There is both crisis and opportunity, because the very nature of reality is fluid these days. As my friend and hair stylist said, "More and more, I wonder, 'What is reality?'" There is a sense that real evil, or a predatory demonic force is afoot and just like in the Lord of the Rings epic, the world has fallen into shadow. At the same time, many are acting on an urgency to add light to the world in all kinds of ways. And some are climbing the steep learning curve to explore hidden knowledge of the ancients, in order to understand how to transcend this shadowy, but more and more overt control.

Dr. Christopher Holmes is a Canadian professor-author, and has been studying modern physics, ancient knowledge and the multi-dimensional nature of reality. His work on the Zero Point Hypothesis is dedicated to the awakening of humankind before the completion of the nightmare parable and their enslavement. From his site: Dr. Holmes maintains that each individual is thus such a star—with a divine source emanation established within the higher dimensional space of the heart. To face the real beast of modern times, we need a New Heart, writes Dr. Holmes. These are dizzying times, but here's a scholar and metaphysician that has garnered the wisdom to be a guide, to shine light on this dark time.

It's often said that we're more powerful than we realize. Back in 1989, I witnessed the Berlin Wall coming down, while an exchange student in Germany. Just days earlier, we had peered over the mines and barbed wire at fully armed East German soldiers. The turning point came when 1 million people gathered in Leipzig, just adding their presence, which became a palpable soul force. Americans can draw on September 11th as the moment that the world was present as witnesses. We sometimes forget it was a global event. An unprecedented focus of the world heart to one place and moment in time. And it can be a bridge to our global coming together, to urgently affirm our humanity, the capacity to empathize and reach out. The act of showing up is the powerful, persistent hope of the human heart. Fear not the path of truth for the lack of people walking on it. Robert F. Kennedy
