A Time of Dire Beauty
Many are sensing that we're on the edge of some big events, a series of October surprises of some kind. There have been predictions of a frequency change, an atmospheric anomaly, and of course all kinds of doomsday visions that can scare the living daylights out of ya. I'm fascinated by the Timewave Zero theory, the work of psychedelic shaman, Terence McKenna. If these last years before 2012 have time moving into a spiral, then time becomes more compressed, and we experience as a rush of memories, past life impressions, collective trauma (flood dreams) and on and on. Some look at his Timewave graph, based on the I-Ching, and see us at a point before a steep free fall into the spiral. What that'll feel like, I guess we'll find out. Said McKenna, "The spiral is tightening. The thing is getting nuttier and nuttier and nuttier."
As the entire Age of Pisces is compressed into an atomic dimension, we experience the resonance of the whole shebang, in replays and overlays of events. A good friend of mine, for example, is reliving the French Revolution. I'm starting to meet a lot of Americans that are turning to their native roots, searching into the ancestry to learn some of the lost tribal arts. It all has an urgent, exhilarating quality, as Caroline Casey calls it, a time of dire beauty.
So apt for the epoch of the Fishes, McKenna said it's our destiny to dive into that collective sea, and bring back good ideas that elevate consciousness. He said, We must each become like the fishermen, and go out into the dark ocean of the mind, and let your nets go into that sea...our world is endangered by a lack of good ideas...our world is in crisis because of a lack of consciousness. Uranus in Pisces stirs the awakening to our role as deep-sea divers, able to each bring back some bit of magic from what's swirling and being replayed in the collective. We don't have to figure it out as a logical series of events. But become like artists by experiencing what's happening, and having the eyes to see the beauty in the chaos.
Thank you for the introduction to Terence McKenna, Molly. When I first saw your posting I had him confused with British hypnotist Paul McKenna, but soon realised my mistake.
I’m so sorry to read that T. McKenna died in 2000. What a loss!
I don’t pretend to follow everything he says in this and other videos, but I get the general idea – intriguing! Especially the spiral theory.
Hi Twilight,
so good to hear from you! I feel out of touch since AstroNews went down. I’ll visit you soon, see what you’ve been thinking about.
Here is something I found on a dreams and prophecy board that I found inspiring (about the coming spiral of events):
We live within a shared reality construct that is made of many different elements, fields upon fields of information. We are also heading into a very major transformation that will either succeed in the redefinition of the entire human experience, or possibly result in the end of the human experience as we know it.
Many people are getting horrific images of incredible disasters. I received a very specific warning in the late 1970’s that there was a titanic energy shift coming. It would be preceded by the onset of deep chaos and upset, and that the actual break in energy would itself be more like a reflecting “wall” than anything else in that very few people would be able to see the wall but that many would see reflected from the wall their own worst fears, nightmares and various beliefs including religious beliefs about the end of the world or Judgement or so forth.
I mention this again (having mentioned it several times before) that this is the time to steady your mind and stabilize your thoughts. Your mind and your own spiritual development will determine what and how you navigate the coming events that will seem to explode and engulf reality as you once knew it.
Be very calm and be very careful. For truly, fear is the enemy.
Well said, Molly
Hi again, Molly
Yes, the Astro News widget is a loss- I haven’t quite got into the rhythm of using Elsa’s new version yet, not to its full potential anyway.
Hmmmm – interesting thoughts there. I agree that fear is our enemy. I’m thinking more and more that, even if we have dreams or visions of catastrophic happenings, it might be best not to voice details, other than with our nearest and dearest. Doing so could hasten things on,(via the collective mind) or at least brew up a kind of hysteria which would be counter-productive.
I’ve said myself, more than once, that nothing will be done to right wrongs, politically or environmentally until a catastrophe forces it. But being afraid isn’t the answer. In a way we should be glad (but a little tremulous)
