"Positive thinking on a surface level always fails...You need to re-write your sub-conscious thinking. Rewrite how you think about yourself and your beliefs on a sub-conscious level. What we believe determines what we make true. Alter a belief and you can change the reality you experience. Through your beliefs you form your reality."

"As our world rapidly moves towards ever greater spiritual, environmental and political challenges there is an urgent need for us to listen to the voices of respected healers, seers, visionaries and shamans whose wisdom, insights and leadership will inspire and guide us to make our planet a healthier, more peaceful and equitable place to live. For over two years, the author met and entered into profound dialogue with such remarkable people."

It's THAT DAY again.
Robbie Williams' friend writes on their trip to the Laughlin UFO conference (which I have also written on - several times) and the meeting he had with Ann Andrews...and more. Great article.

Ahahahhahhaaaa...Oh...stop it, please! What a hilarious headline! Don't! My stomach's hurting..."Shouldn't they have seen it coming?" The originality of it! ..hahahaha
Look, we all know that there are shysters preying on vulnerable people in every EVERY field of human endeavour. If these detractors are so intent on their messianic cause of stopping people being hoodwinked, scammed and abused why pick on such soft targets? There are far more serious (though nearly always more dangerous) opponents to tackle.
Wiseman says that psychic phenomena can't be repeated so therefore it's tosh. Well, can another Wiseman be repeated? I don't think so (and I hope not). What does that make him? And anyway, I think that Wiseman is shifty because I know that psychic phenomena is real... Nah, nah, nah nahnah!. He's talking bollocks but he means well. Always such a well-behaved boy at school! Psychic phenomena cannot be, and is not proven to be fantasy, illusions, or anything else that septics like to dream up. We do not know everything that there is to know and they certainly don't. Until then the intelligent course is to investigate without recourse to beliefs and their bedfellows conclusions.

In the same location as the money-haemorrhaging bell tower (that spawned 911) the Darkness has ordered its agents to erect a money-losing ferris wheel. The Premier, former scribbler and TV talking head - with the Chosen One name 'Alan Carpenter' (and born on a 4 day - for adept researchers info) loves ferris wheels he says.
And talking about erections - what do you reckon to the foreskin development proposal in the same environs in the City of Lights? ..Dah! Dah!

A message to readers from Paul Brandon:
'One of the main purposes of the article is to make the public aware the BBC statement that Dr David Kelly was Andrew Gilligan 'principal' or main source doesn't necessarily mean he was his one and only source, as is the common understanding. The article seeks to demonstrate there may well have been other sources.'

"This is what I watched with my own eyes. This woman is amazing, she can sing, draw and paint… and all of her talents tie in to ‘the other world’ as we know it….. can't believe that they are actually airing this on Monday night for all to see. (Although only the ones in the know ‘will really SEE’). Her drawings are amazing of the other worldly beings as in demons, and of course the others being of angelic form….. a paradox as always. Viewers are seeing her as mad, as we see something entirely different." ~ Julie
"Heidi Everett - a young woman and songwriter who struggles every day just to stay in the world. Heidi's angels and demons are, to her, very real and often terrifying. As she describes a psychotic episode with devastating clarity, Heidi takes us inside a world where it's often hard to know what is real."
Thank you for sending this along Julie.
Folks, this is a truly remarkable piece of film. I am so glad I was able to watch it. Andrew Denton does a great job.
I'm watching the whole thing right now. It really is eye-opening, and instructive - particularly part 3. One gets an incredible insight into what it must be like for people who hear voices, schizophrenics rather than mediums and channels etc. Scroll down the page and you can see and hear Heidi's astonishingly insightful artwork and music. ~ Ellis

Being the woos that I am about things like this I squinted through just-opened eyes when I clicked the link that Julie sent to me - and yep... there is a picture that doesn't appeal to the squeamish. I'd heard about the story before, as I am sure many of you have, but it's a personal account of something very, very, wonderful about being a human in this world. It reminds me of episodes I've had in my own life, especially when I was very young.
~ Thanks Julie

"BBC Radio 4 is to air a documentary about UFOs co-presented by the unlikely pairing of the pop star Robbie Williams and the documentary-maker Jon Ronson.
The pair have collaborated on Robbie Williams and Jon Ronson Journey to the Other Side, in which they visit a UFO conference in Laughlin, Nevada, for three days.
Radio 4 will broadcast the 30-minute documentary on May 6."
I sat not 6 foot away, with Paul Andrews, while Robbie Williams and Jon Ronson interviewed Ann Andrews at the Laughlin UFO Conference around midday on 28th February 2008. Robbie asked most of the questions while Jon listened and occassionally interjected to clarify details, as well as to ask questions of his own. They both asked intelligent questions treating Ann with diligent respect. Forget about newspaper dissing, Robbie behaved like a consummate professional interviewer which was enhanced by a sincere and obvious empathy with Ann and what she was saying.
Prior to this interview, which took place immediately after Ann's talk at the conference, Ann had been questioned pretty rigorously by one of the members of Ronson's and Williams' crew (unbeknownst to everyone in the room) during question time. Robbie Williams evaded recognition for quite a while in his 'Castro' uniform and beard. I did almost immediately that I sat down, but other than whisper to Paul I respected his privacy recognising he was there to do a job. Many of the Americans at the conference didn't know him from a bar of soap anyway - once they did though they were all over him like a rash - as were some of the Brits present. I don't think anyone, other than me, recognised Ronson - he looked a lot younger than I would have expected.
At the end of the interview, Ann, bless her, says to the guy who is interviewing her, "Do you know...you don't half look like Robbie Williams?" It was an unforgetable moment, entirely in keeping with Ann's wonderfully naieve nature. Mind you, it's sure to be a family joke for quite a long while to come. Robbie Williams, patently charmed by this refreshingly real moment, and entirely honest lady, asked her if he could have his photograph taken with her.
It appears that the crew particularly chose this day because Ann would be speaking. It seems too that Nick Pope was involved in setting it all up.
This will be an unmissable programme.
You can see one of the pictures, I took at the time, of Ann, the sound recordist (sorry I didn't get his name), Jon Ronson and Robbie Williams in the middle slideshow in my Silence Through the Grapevine article

"...there awoke in me a passion for Antarctica. I decided to continue my searching, something did not feel right, something about the scientific interest in it and at the same time how little attention is called there, how quiet it is. I live in one of the closest countries in the world to this continent, but it is seldom mentioned. Attention is always directed 'up, up, up' to the rest of the world - America, Europe, China, Russia - they're all 'up'. Even on many world maps you don't see her, she's 'the invisible woman'."

WooHoo, its a very special 23 day!
The frequencies that number 23 describe are at home in the inner realms - the domain of the Goddess. For it is here where She nurtures our inner child with inspiration and imagination; away from the marauding alpha male - 1 - the one-eyed, clubbing tyrant of intellectual surety - with its gormless condescension and dull withering spent futures, expecting, naye insisting, that we kneel to it.
Number 23 returns dragons - creatures of water and air, 2 and 3, Aquarian creatures - consorts and champions of damsels and princesses their gentle characters besmirched by those who would lock their Goddess (feminine side) away in cold stone towers (1s) and call upon Saturn looking sharp in the masks of such as Sts George and Michael.
To celebrate we have new attire, a new page too... and if you look within you will see 2 dragons, sometimes 3, peeking wistfully at you from behind these words. I photgraphed them a few years ago at the top of a sacred hill. They are presence.

GUILTY!
Faith in British justice was restored today as the jury in the Diana-Dodi inquest unanimously agreed that they were both murdered.
The under-manned jury of 5 men and 6 women stated that members of the Royal Household, the security services, and several leading figures in the British Government at the time, have very serious questions to answer. The judge, clearly impressed by the jury's integrity and forthrightness, made it very clear to everyone present that not one person in this country is above the law. He ordered that every single person, who it is suspected are involved in the crime, no matter even if they be a member of the Royal family, a past Prime Minister or a serving member of the British Security Services must front up to the court and that if they are unwilling to do so they will be arrested and made to. No longer, he said, would such people be allowed to get away with the atrocious behaviour they have instinctively resorted to for countless centuries.
YEAH RIGHT!
Who ever thought that that would ever happen?
You believe that members of royalty, spooks and government leaders would have inconvenient people disposed of? Are you mad?
Come on now! Move along! Nothing to see here...
