A NEW
DIRECTION
Today,
January 20th, the US inaugurates its 44th President, Barrack
Obama. Plenty has been written about the significance of the US
electing a black President, so I'm not going to repeat it here.
What's significant to me, is that the population of the US shifted
its consciousness enough to choose a new direction, one
that gives the nation hope.
That might not seem like a big deal,
but it is. It's our feelings
that are shaping what we attract into our lives, individually,
community-wise and nationwide. When we have hope, we attract better
situations than when we we're in fear, despair, cynical, angry,
anxious, or stressed.
Astrologically, there's a very
significant set of factors that is rare - rare as in it's
occurred twice in 3500 years. This situation is shown by Jupiter and
Neptune (co-rulers of Pisces) in Aquarius together, with Uranus
(ruler of Aquarius) in Pisces. The meaning of this rare
configuration is that these planets are in each other's sign and
able to help each other out. In this case it could mean that we will
get enough of a "false recovery" to buy us enough time to get to a
real recovery. That's one possibility. We could also discover
solutions to the energy and environmental crises to help
stabilize the economy, as well as possibly grow it. We could find
ways to start creating a sustainable economy.
Some of you have asked me what a
sustainable economy looks like. First of all, a sustainable economy
is based on investment, not
consumerism. Consumers can never sustain an economy indefinitely.
That game will always be limited, due to the over-use of
natural resources and debt required to maintain
consumerism.
Plus it harms both ourselves and
the Earth when we create and use toxic products. (See the
Story of Stuff www.storyofstuff.com for a more
complete explanation.) What we most need to invest in at this
point is green business, green products, and green ways to live and
work. We need to reinvest in our economy so it supports and
nourishes ourselves and the Earth. This choice will make a huge
difference.
Second, because we're in such a
challenging situation, we need everyone to be focused on working
with their passion and in joy, so we can more easily find
the solutions to the challenges we have. This is very key, since we
create more positive situations when we're in passion and joy than
we can possibly create when we're in stress and anxiety or other
negative emotions. Even "survival" mode is not what we need or want
to solve these challenges.
Third, a sustainable economy will be
based on using debt in a different way. Most consumer debt,
especially credit card debt, is for "consumables", meaning that
debt is not secured or backed by a major asset like a car, house or
land. This kind of debt will tend to decrease substantially in a
sustainable economy, and instead consumers will buy products with
money they have instead of future earnings.
Fourth, the Federal Reserve
must change dramatically. This is a complex topic, but suffice it to
say that the US can never get out of debt when a private corporation
(The Federal Reserve, which is neither federal, nor a reserve) is in
charge of issuing the country's money, and charging the US interest
on every dollar it creates. This set-up is at the heart of the
corruption in the system. Some of the wealthiest private citizens
make a fortune on the US government's money and we taxpayers pay for
it. As long as we continue to allow this situation, the US can never
get out of debt and become a sustainable economy. Only two ways are
possible to change this: either nationalize the Fed so we
taxpayers no longer pay private citizens interest on every
dollar created, or abolish it altogether.
There's plenty of evidence that the
Federal Reserve has not helped our economic cycles at all, and
rather it's actually worsened the economic ups and downs. This
country went without a central bank until late December 1913, and
it's possible it could survive just fine without one again.
This might be the ideal solution, but it seems more likely
that we might get the Fed nationalized, and that would
stop a lot of the corruption.
Fifth, we have to create a different
type of banking system or different rules for our banking system.
The one we have is known as fractional, reserve banking. This means
that banks are required to keep only a small fraction (2-3%) of the
amount of money in the bank that's deposited in it. The rest can be
loaned out. That may be doable, but the laws have been changed
so that banks can sell their loans and reloan out the same deposit
12- 20 times. This creates inflation, since there's no productivity
behind all those excess loans (beyond the first one). Money is
created by loaning it into existence. We don't need to get this
rampant and uncontrollable money-creation machine (our banking
system) under better control.
Sixth, we need a currency that is at
least partially backed by gold, silver or both. It might be that the
new dollar will only be backed by 10-20% of gold, but that's enough
to stabilize it and stop it from devaluing to nothing. There has
never been a successful fiat currency (money that's not backed by
gold or silver, or some metal) in the entire history of the Earth.
So it's important to make this change as soon as possible.
Lastly, or perhaps most
importantly, we need leadership which will support the growth
of a sustainable and nurturing economy for all of us. If you missed
my radio show with Lee Carroll on January 9th, he talked about how
Obama is an Indigo (already experienced!), and how the Illuminati
has now left the US alone. (please listen to this show for more
details, see below). This means the opportunity ahead is even bigger
than most people believe. It's all possible due to the shift in our
consciousness and we must continue shifting it until we get the
economy and the country that we want.
So a hearty welcome to President
Obama and his team! Blessings for your journey ahead. And a hearty
congratulations to all who helped to make this new direction
possible. We're off to a great new journey
together! _________________________________________
ANOTHER TAKE ON THAT PLANE
CRASH
I'm bringing to your attention a
very good insight from David Wilcox (www.divinecosmos.com) related to the
plane crash we had last week. He noticed the metaphoric similarity
of the country's situation and the plane's situation. The passengers
believed they were going to die. They could see the flames coming
out of the engines. They were descending very quickly. They were out
of time. And yet that miraculous landing by the pilot saved
everyone's life.
David Wilcox argues that the same thing
could happen to the United States economy and he sees it as a sign
of what's to come with our new leader. A lot that occurs in this
economy will depend on us and how we feel about it. We can just as
easily see ourselves standing on the wings of a recovery, even
a false one, to get us through to a real recovery, instead of
drowned in debt and other financial catastrophes.
So paste
up those photos of the plane floating with the passengers standing
on the wings and see the economic situation receiving the same rapid
help that greeted those passengers. If enough of us do this, it will
be easy to create it. _________________________________________
REMEMBER: GOOD ENERGIES THIS
WEEK!
Between January
17th and 30th, peaking on January
24th, we get a period when we can re-make some
connections that will bring us growth. Do you have an idea for
expanding that you’ve considered before, but perhaps you didn’t have
enough time to fully pursue it? Now would be an excellent time to
try it again. During January 17th – 24th
we get a triple conjunction of the Sun, Jupiter
and Mercury. Tuesday January 20th is especially good after the
Time-Out. If you have alliances or partnerships you’ve tried to
create before, this could be a good time to re-investigate them. We
still have energy for high growth through January 30th.
These planets are together in Aquarius, so let your ideas take you
to new places.
This period can also
be an excellent time for reprinting, republishing, or re-promoting a
book or CD. It can also be a good time to revisit a location to
which you want to return. Remember not to start or end the trip near
the beginning or end of the Red Communication period. That’s when
Mercury is stopped, and it’s the hardest time for
travel.
