   <content type="html"><![CDATA[<img src="http://www.newciv.org/pic/nl/artpic/76/208/mj.jpg" title="" align="right" hspace="20" vspace="10" border="0"  alt="picture" /> I have just read, 'The Michael Jackson Case,' by Anet Star. The cover image is of a briefcase and once opened, 'Top Secret' file folders are the holders of chapter pages. I found the format and presentation to be novel and entertaining as the pages turn like a real hardcopy book. For me it was much easier on the eyes to read than the common pdf file, as with that format I often lose my place when attempting to scroll down to read each page.<br/><br/>In this remarkable book, Anet shares that she has been in telepathic communication with the deceased pop star, Michael Jackson. A New Zealand Telepath/Intuitive, Anet has the ability to communicate with those who reside "on the other side" in the spirit realm. The book introduces readers to telepathy, what it is, and how it can be utilised. I felt that through sharing this, Anet assists people to get a grasp on what this skill entails so the reader can understand the author and how she has been able to communicate with the soul of Michael.<br/><br/>Many individuals find it difficult to believe in this type of information and so they won't be interested in the book; and that's okay because its not for everyone. However, over the years there is a growing number of people who believe that these types of communications are genuine, especially since many more people are having their own direct experiences and can relate to others accounts.<br/><br/>Many of the well known publishing companies are publishing books with this type of content now. Over the past 15-20 years there has also been an increase in the number of televisions shows and a wide selection of films relating to psychic phenomena and the occult. Viewers can turn on their television sets to see shows about angels, ghosts, reincarnation, extraterrestials, and even psychic detectives who assist police agencies to solve crimes. The number of people exhibiting extraordinary psychic or healing abilities is growing and the wider public are certainly showing an interest.<br/><br/>Having introduced telepathy, Anet goes on to explore "conspiracy theory," outlining how this phenomena has been utilized as a tool by those in positions of power. She gives examples how an authority figure as someone in a position of social influence, will fabricate a story about an event because they have their own agenda, an agenda which involves the concealing of facts, or specific truths surrounding circumstances. Some examples of movies based upon true "conspiracy" stories are: The Pelican Brief, Conspiracy of Fools, the Watergate Conspiracy, and The Amelia Earheart Conspiracy.<br/><br/>The "conspiracy theorist" label is often used (abused) to deter curious people like us, from questioning those in positions of power who may have been involved in wrong doing. The consequences of such questions can come at great cost as the conspiracy theorist label is regularly applied when ''the powers that be'' do not want secret information or the facts about a real event made known publically.<br/><br/>I feel that Anet did a great job at providing a comprehensive definition of this concept and tool as a way of preparing people for the messages from Michael. The reader is assisted to understand how "conspiracy theory" has been utilized in Michael Jackson's death.<br/><br/>To continue to read the full article please visit <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?The-Michael-Jackson-Case---A-Conspiracy-Revealed&id=3745715" id="posts_0x1_000076-000208_outside_link" target="_blank">Ezine Article.</a> And scroll down to the 7th paragraph.]]></content>

   <content type="html"><![CDATA[<img src="http://www.newciv.org/pic/nl/artpic/76/204/aquarius.jpg" title="" align="right" hspace="20" vspace="10" border="0"  alt="picture" /> I was just telling Max a couple of mornings ago that God had told me that with the Lunar Eclipse energy of the current cycle and astrological influences we are collectively being uplifted in a major way, then a couple of nights ago I personally experienced a major magical experience. <br/><br/>Well the other morning when I read my emails I found the following one that affirmed what I knew to be true from within, being communicated from a member of the community. Below is an excerpt from that email.<br/><br/><br/>Astrologers are very excited about this as are we! YIPPEE!<br/><br/>Jude Currivan PhD is a cosmologist, sensitive, healer, Hay House author, futurist and educator. Growing up as the daughter of a coalminer, she is now based near Avebury, England.<br/><br/>From Jude Currivan; In mid February, we are offered cosmic support to this re-membering of who we really are, by a rare astrological concentration that brings together a number of planets together with the North Node – denoting higher purpose - in Aquarius. And which energizes and inspires the possibility for transcendental breakthrough and healing.<br/><br/>The Dawning of the Age of Aquarius: A Rare Astrological Concentration<br/>Jude Currivan, Ph.D.<br/><br/>The most profound spiritual traditions of ancient times perceived the manifest world, at all scales of existence as being generated and pervaded by a cosmic trinity of active, passive and neutral principles – the divine essence of the masculine, feminine and child. The Vedic sages of ancient India saw the male/active life-force energy they called the pingala and the female/passive energy they called the ida weaving around and through our chakras and the child/neutral energy they called the shushumna as channeling up through them.<br/><br/>When these divine masculine and feminine energies are balanced and so able to fully ‘birth’ the divine child energies within us, the ancient sages saw the so-called kundalini energy that otherwise lies dormant at the base of the spine, surge through us enabling us to fully embody our divine nature.<br/><br/>The purpose of the sacred marriage between the divine feminine and masculine that the ancient peoples, such as those of Malta, enacted in their temples was thus not only to bring cosmic harmony and fertility to their land but within themselves. For such balance enables the energetic activation or ‘birth’ of the divine child within us and the attainment of enlightenment.<br/><br/>When this cosmic trinity of consciousness is harmonized and fully expressed within us, we are truly ‘healed’ and ‘whole’ as embodied by the universal symbol of the caduceus as a representation of healing from earliest times.<br/><br/>For millennia, only the highest adepts understood and have attained such wholeness. But elders and mystics around the world are saying that now is the time, when we have evolved to a point where we are all able to awaken our inner divinity.<br/><br/>This is our spiritual destiny at the dawning of the Age of Aquarius. <br/><br/>End of This Age, courtesy of San Francisco Sentinel<br/><br/>In mid February, we are offered cosmic support to this re-membering of who we really are, by a rare astrological concentration that brings together a number of planets together with the North Node – denoting higher purpose - in Aquarius. And which energizes and inspires the possibility for transcendental breakthrough and healing.<br/><br/>We measure our global sense of both space (longitude) and time (universal time - UT or GMT) from the prime meridian located at Greenwich, England. We can perceive the collective influence of this momentous astrological event by looking at the alignment from this globally ‘centered’ perspective. When we do, something extraordinary and exquisite emerges.<br/><br/>At dawn on 14th February the day dedicated to St Valentine, the patron saint of Love, the Moon in Libra enters the seventh house of relationships. And Jupiter and Mars are aligned in Aquarius in the twelfth house of spiritual transformation.<br/><br/>Forty years ago, the intuitive words of a song called Aquarius, brought the dawning of the new age into our collective awareness:<br/><br/>When the Moon is in the seventh house<br/>And Jupiter aligns with Mars.<br/>Then peace will guide the planets<br/>And love will steer the stars.<br/><br/>At dawn on 14th February the Cosmos actually embodies this perfect alignment to support our collective manifestation of love and peace and the dawning of the Age of Aquarius. <br/><br/>The Aquarian chart of 14th February reveals an incredible concentration of cosmic influences blending with the energies of Aquarius in the twelfth house. Expansive Jupiter and energetic Mars are aligned with the higher purpose of the North Node. The presence of Chiron the wounded healer offers us the opportunity to heal the schisms that have separated us for so long. Neptune emphasizes collective humanitarian movements and the co-creation of social justice. And the presence of the radiant Sun enlightens the entire alignment.<br/><br/>Mercury also in the twelfth house but just beyond the cusp in Capricorn, allies with transformational Pluto to communicate and anchor the Shift throughout our global structures and institutions. <br/><br/>The Moon in Libra in the seventh house emphasizes harmonious real–ationships.<br/><br/>Venus in Aries in the first house energizes and empowers dynamic co-creativity.<br/><br/>And whilst Saturn the great task master in opposition to Uranus the unexpected awakener is suggesting an ongoing confrontation as the dregs of the unsustainable old paradigm reluctantly give way to the untested hope of the new, their placements in Virgo and Pisces brings practical altruism and visionary inspiration to the transition. <br/><br/>***See Image of Alignment view from the horizon at the very bottom of this text.<br/><br/>At 7.25am on 14th February – and for the 18 minutes of the alignment, I invite you, in the universal heart, to add your own intention for love and peace and to co-create the dawning of the Age of Aquarius to that of the Cosmos. In whatever way feels appropriate for you, you may choose to align with7.25am (UT) or 7.25am your own local time energizing a wave of intention that will surge around the Earth.<br/><br/>Having searched for over a thousand years, I can find no other alignments in the past of this incredible significance. But amazingly, at one moment in time nearly fifty years ago, the collective voices of our ancient ancestors seem to have been given such a cosmic voice to energetically seed this coming Age and the birth of the Aquarian human.<br/><br/>In 1962 at the same time on the same day, as 2009, Jupiter and Mars were in Aquarius in the twelfth house and the Moon in the seventh house. But then the awesome concentration of planets that energize the 2009 alignment was missing. <br/><br/>And instead of the North Node (higher purpose) being aligned with Jupiter and Mars as it is in 2009, it was in opposition.<br/><br/>What this means is that back in 1962 it was the so-called south node rather than the north node that was aligned with Jupiter and Mars.<br/><br/>The south node represents what we bring in from the past. So in 1962 the potential for us the birth the Age of Aquarius came through from our collective race memory - but only now are we able to fully manifest its higher purpose. <br/><br/>In 1962 we essentially took a collective in-breath of possibility and now with the cosmic support of the Aquarian alignment of 14th February 2009 we are able to take the out-breath and make it happen.<br/><br/>The second verse of the song Aquarius is;<br/><br/>Harmony and understanding<br/>Sympathy and trust abounding<br/>No more falsehoods or derisions<br/>Golden living dreams of visions<br/>Magic crystal revelation<br/>And the minds true liberation<br/>Aquarius!<br/>Aquarius!<br/><br/>For an <a href="http://www.judecurrivan.com/media-articles/" id="posts_0x1_000076-000204_outside_link" target="_blank">Overview</a><br/><br/>To know more: <a href="http://www.judecurrivan.com/media-articles/articles/the-aquarian-alignment-14th-february-2009/" id="posts_0x2_000076-000204_outside_link" target="_blank">See Article</a> <br/><br/>www.judecurrivan.com<br/><br/>Update: 11:02pm Valentines Day (night in New Zealand):<br/><br/>THANKS TO THOSE GORGEOUS, KEWL AND GROOVY BROTHERS AND SISTERS THE FIFTH DIMENSION, WE JUST WATCHED THEM WHEN WE CAME HOME TONITE! <br/><br/>Just got home from a special Valentines Day (night) out with my one true love, and we went to a WONDERFUL restaurant and vineyard with marvelous wine and scrumptious dinner which was exquisite!

   <content type="html"><![CDATA[<img src="http://www.newciv.org/pic/nl/artpic/76/203/goddessbirth.jpg" title="" align="right" hspace="20" vspace="10" border="0"  alt="picture" /> <img src="http://www.newciv.org/pic/nl/artpic/76/203/mayasky.jpg" title="" align="left" hspace="20" vspace="10" border="0"  alt="picture" /> My intuitive take is that we are in for a 'kick butt' year when much is coming to the head. As much more comes apart, the Light will increasingly be meeting the Dark eye to eye, and heart to heart in support of individuals and groups being/doing their perfect part. We have long prepared for these times, and I know that we have much spiritual power as we come together to meet what comes. Let us remember that with love, and through I AM Presence all things are possible!<br/><br/>It surely is time for the communities to come together over this next cycle as many discover and open to share the abundant resources that will carry us through the many changes yet to come. <br/><br/>5th "Night" Nov. 19th, 2007 - Nov. 12th, 2008<br/>(The end of manufactured lack)Key words: Challenge/Destruction<br/><br/>6th "Day" Nov. 13th, 2008 - Nov. 7th, 2009<br/>(Consciousness surpasses technology)Key Words: Flowering/Renaissance<br/><br/>From Carl Johan Calleman: <br/><br/>The Mayan calendar is associated with nine creation cycles, which represent nine levels of consciousness or Underworlds as symbolized by the Mayan pyramids. This pyramidal structure of consciousness development can explain things as disparate as the common origin of world religions and the modern complaint that time seems to be moving faster.<br/><br/>Time, in fact, is speeding up as we transition from the materialist Planetary Underworld that still governs us to a new and higher frequency of consciousness, the Galactic Underworld, in preparation for the final Universal level of conscious Enlightenment. The Mayan calendar is thus a spiritual device that enables a greater understanding of the evolution of consciousness driving human history and the concrete steps we can take to align ourselves with this cosmic evolution toward Enlightenment.<br/><br/>What makes the Mayan calendar fundamentally different from other calendars in existence in the world is that its various symbols are reflective of the evolution of consciousness in the cosmos. This is in contrast to calendars from other cultures or religions that are based on astronomical cycles in our own solar system, such as the solar year or the moon cycle. It is from this that the Mayan calendar derives its immense importance at the present time as we have entered the Apocalypse and may want to understand what is happening around us.<br/><br/>To know more I encourage you to listen to the programs below because they are very informative and encouraging about the days ahead. Also the articles are great too!

I thought I WAS going to write about that stuff; however I'm really more interested in the upcoming cycle of the Sixth Day and the clarifying energy it brings.<br/><br/>For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, I can briefly summarize that there are just a few basic cycles in the Mayan Calendar however they operate at different scales of time.  The creative "tones" or the numbers 1 - 13 that we've talked about before operate on a daily basis (the trecena) as well as on larger and larger scales.  One of these affects 360-day periods right now. <br/><br/>Since November of 2007 and until November 12, 2008 we are in the tenth of thirteen 360-day cycles and it is sometimes referred to as the Fifth Night because #10 represents the energy of challenge.<br/><br/>I can say all that I care to say about the challenge of the Fifth Night in one paragraph so here it is.  Something very dear to you will be challenged during this period.  No doubt about it.  There's nothing good or bad about this challenging time.  These are the energies of challenge to what was budding in the previous cycle.  You just need to use all the tools at your disposal to meet the challenge with skill, grace and expanding consciousness.  There are no special instructions from my elders other than to just be the best human being I can be during this time.  And I can personally attest to losing at least two things from my life so far that were dear and precious. That's it.  I'm much more interested in and will write much more about the period that is coming up.  <br/><br/>The Sixth Day which is the energy of 11 or CLARITY for the 360 days following November 13, 2008.  There's nothing good or bad about clarity.  It just is.  Our mission, if we choose to accept it, will be to navigate it with grace and skill.  And, of course, be the best human beings we can be. <a href="http://daykeeper.typepad.com/mayan_calendar_days/preparing_for_2011_and_beyond/" id="posts_0x12_000076-000203_outside_link" target="_blank">To Read more</a><br/><br/><a href="http://www.heartstory.co.nz/transitioning/articles_transitioning/hunab_ku.htm" id="posts_0x13_000076-000203_outside_link" target="_blank">Hunab Ku</a><br/><br/>Mayan Calendar SIGNS – Energy for the day: Mayan Portal<br/><br/>From Ian who was a colleague to Carl Johan Calleman Each glyph and its quality Calendar Day <br/><br/>Listen to Audio: Cariel's Heartlink, 12-12-2007, MP3 <br/>(January 2, 2008 and Dec. 12, 2007)<br/><br/>Cariel interviews Barbara Hand Clow – Show January 2, 2008 and December 12, 2007<br/>(Barbara is an Internationally acclaimed ceremonial teacher, author, and Mayan Calendar researcher) <a href="http://cabiz.net/radio/Cariels_Heartlink_2007-12-12.mp3" id="posts_0x14_000076-000203_outside_link" target="_blank">Program</a> <br/><br/>NOTE: If you would like to purchase Barbara’s book directly from Amazon:<br/><br/>To purchase Barbara’s book thru Amazon, Copy and paste the following title: The Mayan Code: Time Acceleration and Awakening the World Mind – then pop the title into the top search box <a href="http://www.heartstory.co.nz/resources/articles_tools/mayan_calendar.htm" id="posts_0x15_000076-000203_outside_link" target="_blank">HERE</a> (give a few minutes for the Amazon shop to load).  <br/><br/>Barbara Hand Clows numerous books include The Pleiadian Agenda, Alchemy of Nine Dimensions, Catastrophobia, Liquid Light of Sex, The Mayan Code, and The Mind Chronicles. <br/><br/>The end date of the Mayan Calendar - 2011/2012-approaches Earth like a strange attractor in the sky. It heralds the completion of the Nine Underworlds as described by the Swedish biologist, Carl Johan Calleman, and the alignment of our solar system with the centre of the Milky Way Galaxy. We feel great excitement in our bodies as our hearts open; we are being flooded by divine energy. Also, many of us feel over-energized, ungrounded, and disoriented by living during the last stages of time acceleration; such a convergence has never happened on Earth before. Since 1995, Barbara Hand Clow has been teaching Journeys Through Nine Dimensions led by the Pleiadians star beings from the Pleiades-with her partner Gerry Clow. <br/><br/>We are in the midst of an evolutionary critical leap that inspires us to heal our bodies, transmute our emotional blocks, clarify our minds, and discover our souls, and Barbara and Gerry assist students with this growth. Barbara is well known for her work as an astrologer, especially for her groundbreaking study of Chiron. In light of the building galactic alignment, she has written The Mayan Code, Time Acceleration and Awakening the World Mind based on Carl Callemans Mayan Calendar hypothesis and her own study of Earth's alignment with the Galactic Centre in 1998, which intensified time during the Galactic Underworld-1999-2011. This book helps us maximize the high spiritual energy flooding Earth. <br/><br/>Video Programs at Conscious Media Network <br/><br/>And last but not least, listen to a great interview with Barbara Marciniak as she talks about the current cycle <a href="http://www.consciousmedianetwork.com/members/bmarciniak.htm" id="posts_0x16_000076-000203_outside_link" target="_blank">Listen to Program</a> (38:26 Minutes in Length) <br/><br/>Barbara seldom ever provides interviews so this is a special treat indeed!<br/><br/>Barbara Marciniak is an internationally acclaimed trance channel, inspirational speaker, and best-selling author of Bringers of the Dawn, Earth, Family of Light, and Path of Empowerment, which collectively have been translated into more than twenty languages and have sold over five hundred thousand U.S. copies.

A must read document!!!<br/><br/>First Briefing - Excerpt -<br/>“The Extraterrestrial Presence in the World Today”<br/><br/>It is a great honor for us to be able to present this information to all of you who are fortunate enough to hear this message. We are the Allies of Humanity. This transmission is being made possible by the presence of the Unseen Ones, the spiritual counselors who oversee the development of intelligent life both within your world and throughout the Greater Community of Worlds.<br/><br/>We are not communicating through any mechanical device, but through a spiritual channel that is free from interference. Though we live in the physical, as do you, we are given the privilege to communicate in this way in order to deliver the information that we must share with you.<br/><br/>We represent a small group who is observing the events of your world. We come from the Greater Community. We do not interfere in human affairs. We have no establishment here. We have been sent for a very specific purpose—to witness the events that are occurring in your world and, given the opportunity to do so, to communicate to you what we see and what we know. For you live on the surface of your world and cannot see the affairs that surround it. Nor can you see clearly the visitation that is occurring in your world at this time or what it portends for your future.<br/><br/>We would like to give testimony to this. We are doing so at the request of the Unseen Ones, for we have been sent for this purpose. The information that we are about to impart to you may seem very challenging and startling. It is perhaps unexpected by many who will hear this message. We understand this difficulty, for we have had to face this within our own cultures.<br/><br/>As you hear the information, it may be difficult to accept at first, but it is vital for all who would seek to make a contribution in the world.<br/>For many years we have been observing the affairs of your world. We seek no relations with humanity. We are not here on a diplomatic mission. We have been sent by the Unseen Ones to live in the proximity of your world in order to observe the events we are about to describe.<br/><br/>Our names are not important. They would be meaningless to you. And we shall not impart them for our own safety, for we must remain hidden in order that we may serve.<br/><br/>To begin, it is necessary for people everywhere to understand that humanity is emerging into a Greater Community of intelligent life. Your world is being “visited” by several alien races and by several different organizations of races. This has been actively going on for some time. There have been visitations throughout human history, but nothing of this magnitude. The advent of nuclear weapons and the destruction of your natural world have brought these forces to your shores.<br/><br/>There are many people in the world today, we understand, who are beginning to realize that this is occurring. And we understand as well that there are many interpretations of this visitation—what it could mean and what it could offer. And many of the people who are aware of these things are very hopeful and anticipate a great benefit for humanity. We understand. It is natural to expect this. It is natural to be hopeful.<br/><br/>The visitation in your world now is very extensive, so much so that people in all parts of the world are witnessing it and are experiencing its effects directly. What has brought these “visitors” from the Greater Community, these different organizations of beings, is not to promote the advancement of humanity or the spiritual education of humanity. What has brought these forces to your shores in such numbers with such intention are the resources of your world.<br/><br/>This we understand may be difficult to accept at first because you cannot yet appreciate how beautiful your world is, how much it possesses and what a rare jewel it is in a Greater Community of barren worlds and empty space. Worlds such as yours are rare indeed. Most places in the Greater Community that are inhabited now have been colonized, and technology has made this possible. But worlds such as yours where life has evolved naturally, without the aid of technology, are far more rare than you might realize. Others take great notice of this, of course, for the biological resources of your world have been used by several races for millennia. It is considered a storehouse for some. And yet the development of human culture and dangerous weapons and the deterioration of these resources have caused the alien Intervention.<br/><br/>Perhaps you might wonder why diplomatic efforts are not established to contact the leaders of humanity. This is reasonable to ask, but the difficulty here is that there is no one to represent humanity, for your people are divided, and your nations oppose one another. It is also assumed by these visitors that we speak of that you are warlike and aggressive and that you would bring harm and hostility to the universe around you despite your good qualities.<br/><br/>Therefore, in our discourse we want to give you an idea of what is occurring, what it will mean for humanity and how it is related to your spiritual development, your social development and your future in the world and in the Greater Community of Worlds itself.<br/><br/>People are unaware of the presence of alien forces, unaware of the presence of resource explorers, of those who would seek an alliance with humanity for their own benefit. Perhaps we should begin here by giving you an idea of what life is like beyond your shores, for you have not journeyed afar and cannot account for these things yourself.<br/><br/>You live in a part of the galaxy that is quite inhabited. Not all parts of the galaxy are so inhabited. There are great unexplored regions. There are many hidden races. Trade and commerce between worlds are only carried on in certain areas. The environment that you will emerge into is a very competitive one. The need for resources is experienced everywhere, and many technological societies have outstripped their world’s natural resources and must trade, barter and travel to gain what they need. It is a very complicated situation. Many alliances are formed and conflicts do occur.<br/><br/>Perhaps at this point it is necessary to realize that the Greater Community into which you are emerging is a difficult environment and a challenging one, and yet it brings great opportunity and great possibilities for humanity. However, for these possibilities and these advantages to be realized, humanity must prepare and come to learn what life in the universe is like. And it must come to understand what spirituality means within a Greater Community of intelligent life.<br/><br/>To Read <a href="http://www.alliesofhumanity.org/chapter1-allies-of-humanity.php" id="posts_0x2_000076-000198_outside_link" target="_blank">More</a><br/><br/>Second Briefing - Excerpt -<br/>“The Challenge to Human Freedom”<br/><br/>Humanity is approaching a very dangerous and very important time in its collective development. You are on the verge of emerging into a Greater Community of intelligent life. You will be encountering other races of beings who are coming to your world seeking to protect their interests and to discover what opportunities may lie ahead. They are not angels or angelic beings. They are not spiritual entities. They are beings who are coming to your world for resources, for alliances and to gain an advantage in an emerging world. They are not evil. They are not holy. In that, they are also much like you. They are simply driven by their needs, their associations, their beliefs and their collective goals.<br/><br/>This is a very great time for humanity, but humanity is not prepared. From our vantage point, we can see this on a larger scale. We do not involve ourselves with the daily lives of individuals in the world. We do not attempt to persuade governments or to lay claim to certain parts of the world or to certain resources that exist there. Instead, we observe, and we wish to report what we observe, for this is our mission in being here.<br/><br/>The Unseen Ones have told us that there are many people today who feel a strange discomfort, a sense of vague urgency, a feeling that something is going to happen and that something must be done. Perhaps there is nothing within their daily sphere of experience that justifies these deeper feelings, that verifies the importance of these feelings, or that gives substance to their expression. We can understand this because we have been through similar things ourselves in our own histories. We represent several races joined together in our small alliance to support the emergence of Knowledge and Wisdom in the universe, particularly with races that are on the threshold of emerging into the Greater Community. These emerging races are particularly vulnerable to foreign influence and manipulation. They are particularly vulnerable to misunderstanding their situation and understandably so, for how could they comprehend the meaning and the complexity of life within the Greater Community? That is why we wish to play our small part in preparing and in educating humanity.<br/><br/>In our first discourse, we gave a broad description of the visitors’ involvement in four areas. The first area is the influence on important people in positions of power in governments and at the head of religious institutions. The second area of influence is on people who have a spiritual inclination and who wish to open themselves to the greater powers that exist in the universe. The third area of involvement is the visitors’ building of establishments in the world in strategic locations, near population centers, where their influence on the Mental Environment can be exercised. And lastly, we spoke of their program of interbreeding with humanity, a program which has been underway for quite some time.<br/><br/>We understand how troubling this news may be and perhaps how disappointing it may be to many people who had high hopes and expectations that visitors from beyond would bring blessings and great benefit to humanity. It is natural perhaps to assume and to expect these things, but the Greater Community into which humanity is emerging is a difficult and competitive environment, particularly in areas in the universe where many different races compete with each other and interact for trade and commerce. Your world exists in such an area. This may seem incredible to you because it has always seemed that you lived in isolation, alone within the vast emptiness of space. But really you live in an inhabited part of the universe where trade and commerce have been established and where traditions, interactions and associations are all longstanding. And to your benefit, you live in a beautiful world—a world of great biological diversity, a splendid place in contrast to the starkness of so many other worlds.<br/><br/>However, this also gives your situation great urgency and poses a genuine risk, for you possess what many others want for themselves. They do not seek to destroy you but to gain your allegiance and your alliance so that your existence in the world and your activities here can be for their benefit. You are emerging into a mature and complicated set of circumstances. Here you cannot be like little children and believe and hope for the blessings of all whom you may encounter. You must become wise and discerning, as we, through our difficult histories, have had to become wise and discerning. Now humanity will have to learn about the ways of the Greater Community, about the intricacies of interaction between races, about the complexities of trade and about the subtle manipulations of associations and alliances that are established between worlds. It is a difficult but important time for humanity, a time of great promise if true preparation can be undertaken.<br/><br/>In this, our second discourse, we would like to speak in greater detail about the intervention into human affairs by various groups of visitors, what this may mean for you and what this will require. We come not to incite fear but to provoke a sense of responsibility, to engender a greater awareness and to encourage preparation for the life that you are entering into, a greater life but a life with greater problems and challenges as well.<br/><br/>We have been sent here through the spiritual power and presence of the Unseen Ones. Perhaps you will think of them in a friendly way as angels, but in the Greater Community their role is greater and their involvement and their alliances are deep and penetrating. Their spiritual power is here to bless sentient beings in all worlds and in all places and to promote the development of the deeper Knowledge and Wisdom that will make possible the peaceful emergence of relations, both between worlds and within worlds. We are here on their behalf. They have asked us to come. And they have given us much of the information that we have, information that we could not collect ourselves. From them we have learned a great deal about your nature. We have learned a great deal about your abilities, your strengths, your weaknesses and your great vulnerability. We can comprehend these things because the worlds that we have come from have passed through this great threshold of emergence into the Greater Community. We have learned much, and we have suffered much from our own mistakes, mistakes that we hope humanity will avoid.<br/><br/>We come then not only with our own experience, but with a deeper awareness and a deeper sense of purpose that has been given to us by the Unseen Ones. We observe your world from a location nearby, and we monitor the communications of those who are visiting you. We know who they are. We know where they come from and why they are here. We do not compete with them, for we are not here to exploit the world. We consider ourselves to be the Allies of Humanity, and we hope in time that you will consider us to be such, for such we are. And though we cannot prove this, we hope to demonstrate this through our words and through the wisdom of our counsel. We hope to prepare you for what lies ahead. We come in our mission with a sense of urgency, for humanity is way behind in its preparation for the Greater Community. Many earlier attempts decades ago to make contact with human beings and to prepare human beings for their future proved to be unsuccessful. Only a few people could be reached, and as we have been told, many of these contacts were misconstrued and were used by others for different purposes.<br/><br/>Therefore, we have been sent in the place of those who came before us to offer help to humanity. We work together in our united cause. We do not represent a great military power but more a secret and holy alliance. We do not want to see the kind of affairs that exist in the Greater Community perpetrated here within your world. We do not want to see humanity lose its freedom and its self-determination. These are real risks. Because of this, we encourage you to consider our words deeply, without fear, if that is possible, and with the kind of conviction and determination that we know resides in all human hearts.<br/><br/>Today and tomorrow and the day after, great activity is underway and will be underway to establish a network of influence over the human race by those who are visiting the world for their own purposes. They feel that they are coming here to save the world from humanity. Some even believe they are here to save humanity from itself. They feel that they are in the right and do not consider that their actions are inappropriate or unethical. According to their ethics, they are doing what is considered to be reasonable and important. However, for all freedom-loving beings, such an approach cannot be justified.<br/><br/>We observe the visitors’ activities, which are growing. Every year, there are more of them here. They are coming from afar. They are bringing supplies. They are deepening their engagement and involvement. They are establishing stations of communication in many places in your solar system. They are observing all of your initial forays into space, and they will counter and destroy anything that they feel will interfere with their activities. They are seeking to establish control not only of your world but of the area around your world. This is because there are competing forces here. Each represents the alliance of several races.<br/><br/>Now let us address the last of the four areas that we spoke of in our first discourse. This has to do with the visitors interbreeding with the human species. Let us give you a bit of history first. Many thousands of years ago, in your time, several races came to interbreed with humanity to give humanity a greater intelligence and adaptability. This led to the rather sudden emergence of what we understand is called “Modern Man.” This has given you dominance and power in your world. This occurred long ago.<br/><br/>However, the interbreeding program that is occurring now is not the same at all. It is being undertaken by a different set of beings and by different alliances. Through interbreeding, they are seeking to establish a human being who will be part of their association yet who can survive within your world and who can have a natural affinity with the world. Your visitors cannot live on the surface of your world. They must either seek shelter underground, which they are doing, or they must live aboard their own craft, which they often keep hidden in large bodies of water. They want to interbreed with humanity to protect their interests here, which are primarily the resources of your world. They want to have human allegiance assured, and so for several generations they have been involved in an interbreeding program, which within the last twenty years has become quite extensive.<br/><br/>Their purpose is twofold. First, as we have mentioned, the visitors want to create a human-like being who can live within your world but who will be bonded to them and who will have a greater set of sensitivities and abilities. The second purpose of this program is to influence all those that they encounter and to encourage people to assist them in their undertaking. The visitors want and need human assistance. This furthers their program in all respects. They consider you valuable. However, they do not consider you to be their peers or their equals. Useful, that is how you are perceived. So, in all whom they will encounter, in all whom they will take, the visitors will seek to engender this sense of their superiority, their value and the worth and the significance of their endeavors in the world. The visitors will tell all whom they contact that they are here for the good, and they will assure those that they have captured that they need not fear. And with those who seem particularly receptive, they will attempt to establish alliances—a shared sense of purpose, even a shared sense of identity and family, of heritage and destiny.<br/><br/>In their program, the visitors have studied human physiology and psychology very extensively, and they will take advantage of what people want, particularly those things that people want but have not been able to gain for themselves, such as peace and order, beauty and tranquility. These will be offered and some people will believe. Others will simply be used as is needed.<br/><br/>Here it is necessary to understand that the visitors believe that this is entirely appropriate in order to preserve the world. They feel that they are doing humanity a great service, and so they are wholehearted in their persuasions. Unfortunately, this demonstrates a great truth about the Greater Community—that true Wisdom and true Knowledge are as rare in the universe as they must seem within your world. It is natural for you to hope and to expect that other races have outgrown deviousness, selfish pursuits, competition and conflict. But, alas, this is not the case. Greater technology does not raise the mental and spiritual strength of individuals.<br/><br/>Today there are many people who are being taken against their will repeatedly. Because humanity is very superstitious and seeks to deny things that it cannot understand, this unfortunate activity is being carried on with considerable success. Even now, there are hybrid individuals, part-human, part-alien, walking in your world. There are not many of them, but their numbers will grow in the future. Perhaps you will meet one some day. They will look the same as you but be different. You will think they are human beings, but something essential will seem to be missing in them, something that is valued within your world. It is possible to be able to discern and to identify these individuals, but in order to do so, you would have to become skilled in the Mental Environment and learn what Knowledge and Wisdom mean in the Greater Community.<br/><br/>We feel that learning this is of the utmost importance, for we see all that is happening in your world from our vantage point, and the Unseen Ones counsel us regarding things we cannot see or have access to. We understand these events, for they have happened countless times in the Greater Community, as influence and persuasion are cast upon races that are either too weak or too vulnerable to respond effectively.<br/><br/>We hope and we trust that none of you who may hear this message will think that these intrusions into human life are beneficial. Those who are being affected will be influenced to think that these encounters are beneficial, both for themselves and for the world. People’s spiritual aspirations, their desire for peace and harmony, family and inclusion will all be addressed by the visitors. These things that represent something so special about the human family are, without Wisdom and preparation, a sign of your great vulnerability. Only those individuals who are strong with Knowledge and Wisdom could see the deception behind these persuasions. Only they are in a position to see the deception that is being perpetrated upon the human family. Only they can protect their minds against the influence that is being cast in the Mental Environment in so many places in the world today. Only they will see and know.<br/><br/>Our words will not be enough. Men and women must learn to see and to know. We can only encourage this. Our coming here to your world has occurred in accordance with the presentation of the teaching in Greater Community Spirituality, for the preparation is here now and that is why we can be a source of encouragement. If the preparation were not here, we would know that our admonitions and our encouragement would not be adequate and would not be successful. The Creator and the Unseen Ones want to prepare humanity for the Greater Community. In fact, this is the most important need of humanity at this time.<br/><br/>Therefore, we encourage you not to believe that the taking of human beings and their children and their families has any benefit for humanity at all. We must emphasize this. Your freedom is precious. Your individual freedom and your freedom as a race are precious. It has taken us so long to regain our freedom. We do not want to see you lose yours.<br/><br/>The interbreeding program that is occurring in the world will continue. The only way that it can be stopped is by people gaining this greater awareness and sense of inner authority. Only this will bring these intrusions to an end. Only this will uncover the deception behind them. It is hard for us to imagine how awful this must be for your people, for those men and women, for those little ones, who are undergoing this treatment, this re-education, this pacification. To our values, this seems abhorrent, and yet we know that these things occur in the Greater Community and have occurred since before memory.<br/><br/>Perhaps our words will generate more and more questions. This is healthy and this is natural, but we cannot answer all of your questions. You must find the means to gain the answers for yourselves. But you cannot do this without a preparation, and you cannot do this without an orientation. At this time, humanity as a whole, we understand, cannot differentiate between a Greater Community demonstration and a spiritual manifestation. This is truly a difficult situation because your visitors can project images, they can speak to people through the Mental Environment and their voices can be received and expressed through people. They can cast this kind of influence because humanity does not yet have this kind of skill or discernment.<br/><br/>Humanity is not united. It is broken apart. It is in contention with itself. This makes you extremely vulnerable to outside interference and manipulation. It is understood by your visitors that your spiritual desires and inclinations make you particularly vulnerable and particularly good subjects for their use. How difficult it is to gain true objectivity regarding these things. Even where we have come from, it has been a great challenge. But for those who wish to remain free and to exercise self-determination in the Greater Community, they must develop these skills, and they must preserve their own resources in order to avoid being required to seek them from others. If your world loses its self-sufficiency, it will lose much of its freedom. If you must go beyond your world to seek the resources you need to live, then you will lose much of your power to others. Because the resources of your world are rapidly diminishing, this is a grave concern for those of us who watch from afar. It is also of concern to your visitors, for they want to prevent the destruction of your environment, not for you but for them.<br/><br/>The interbreeding program has only one purpose, and that is to enable the visitors to establish a presence and a commanding influence within the world. Do not think that the visitors are lacking something that they need from you other than your resources. Do not think that they need your humanity. They only want your humanity to assure themselves of their position in the world. Do not be flattered. Do not indulge yourself in such thoughts. They are unwarranted. If you can learn to see the situation clearly as it really is, you will see and you will know these things for yourself. You will understand why we are here and why humanity needs allies in a Greater Community of intelligent life. And you will see the importance of learning greater Knowledge and Wisdom and of learning Greater Community Spirituality.<br/><br/>Because you are emerging into an environment where these things become vital for success, for freedom, for happiness and for strength, you will need greater Knowledge and Wisdom in order to establish yourselves as an independent race in the Greater Community. However, your independence is being lost with each passing day. And you may not see the loss of your freedom, though perhaps you may feel it in some way. How could you see it? You cannot go outside your world and witness the events that surround it. You do not have access to the political and commercial involvements of the alien forces operating in the world today to understand their complexity, their ethics or their values.<br/><br/>Never think that any race in the universe that travels for commerce is spiritually advanced. Those who seek commerce seek advantage. Those who travel from world to world, those who are resource explorers, those who seek to plant their own flags are not what you would consider to be spiritually advanced. We do not consider them to be spiritually advanced. There is worldly power, and there is spiritual power. You can understand the difference between these things, and now it is necessary to see this difference within a larger environment.<br/><br/>We come, then, with a sense of commitment and strong encouragement for you to maintain your freedom, to become strong and discerning and not to give into persuasions or promises of peace, power and inclusion from those you do not know. And do not let yourself be comforted into thinking that all will turn out well for humanity or even for you personally, for this is not Wisdom. For the Wise in any place must learn to see the reality of life around them and learn to negotiate this life in a beneficial way.<br/><br/>Therefore, receive our encouragement. We shall speak again concerning these matters and illustrate the importance of gaining discernment and discretion. And we shall speak more about the involvement of your visitors in the world in areas that are very important for you to understand. We hope that you can receive our words. <br/><br/>3rd Briefing, A Great Warning: (An excerpt)<br/><br/>As we have indicated in our previous messages, the world is being infiltrated and the Mental Environment is being conditioned and prepared. The intention is not to eradicate human beings but to employ them, to have them become workers for a greater “collective.” The institutions of the world and most certainly the natural environment are valued, and it is the preference of the visitors that these be preserved for their use. They cannot live here, and so to gain your allegiance, they are employing many of the techniques that we have described. We will continue in our description to clarify these things.<br/><br/>Our arrival here has been thwarted by several factors, not the least of which is a lack of readiness of those whom we must reach directly. Our speaker, the author of this book, is the only one with whom we have been able to establish a firm contact. There are a few others who show promise, but we must give our speaker the fundamental information.<br/><br/>From the perspective of your visitors, as we have learned, the United States is considered the world leader, and so the greatest amount of emphasis will be placed here. But other major nations as well will be contacted, for they are recognized to hold power, and power is understood by the visitors, for they follow the dictates of power without question and to a much greater degree than is even apparent in your world.<br/><br/>Attempts will be made to persuade the leaders of the strongest nations to become receptive to the presence of the visitors and to receive gifts and inducements for cooperation with the promise of mutual benefit, and even the promise of world dominion to some. There will be those in the corridors of power in the world who will respond to these inducements, for they will think that there is a great opportunity here to take humanity beyond the specter of nuclear war into a new community upon the earth, a community which they will lead for their own purposes. Yet these leaders are deceived, for they will not be given the keys to this realm. They will simply be the arbiters in the transition of power.<br/><br/>This you must understand. It is not so complex. From our perspective and vantage point, it is obvious. We have seen this occur elsewhere. It is one of the ways that established organizations of races who have their own collectives recruit emerging worlds such as yours. They believe firmly that their agenda is virtuous and for the betterment of your world, for humanity is not highly respected, and though you are virtuous in certain ways, your liabilities far outweigh your potential, from their perspective. We do not hold this view or we would not be in the position that we are in, and we would not be offering our services to you as the Allies of Humanity.<br/><br/>Therefore, there is a great difficulty now in discernment, a great challenge. The challenge is for humanity to understand who its allies really are and to be able to distinguish them from its potential adversaries. There are no neutral parties in this matter. The world is far too valuable, its resources recognized as being unique and of considerable worth. There are no neutral parties who are involved in human affairs. The true nature of the alien Intervention is to exert influence and control and eventually to establish dominion here.<br/><br/>We are not the visitors. We are observers. We claim no rights to your world, and we have no agenda to establish ourselves here. For this reason, our names are hidden, for we do not pursue relations with you beyond our ability to provide our counsel in this way. We cannot control the outcome. We can only advise you as to the choices and decisions that your people must make in light of these greater events.<br/><br/>Humanity has great promise and has cultivated a rich spiritual heritage, but it is without education regarding the Greater Community into which it is emerging. Humanity is divided and contentious within itself, thus making it vulnerable to manipulation and to intrusion from beyond your borders. Your peoples are preoccupied with the concerns of the day, but the reality of tomorrow is not recognized. What profit could you possibly gain by ignoring the greater movement of the world and by assuming that the Intervention that is occurring today is for your benefit? Surely there is not one amongst you who could say this if you but saw the reality of the situation.<br/><br/>In a way, it is a matter of perspective. We can see and you cannot, for you have not the vantage point. You would have to be beyond your world, outside the sphere of your world’s influence, to see what we are seeing. And yet, to see what we see, we must remain hidden because if we were discovered, we would surely perish. For your visitors consider their mission here to be of the utmost value, and they consider the Earth to be their greatest prospect among several others. They will not stop because of us. So it is your own freedom that you must value and that you must defend. We cannot do this for you.<br/><br/>Every world, if it seeks to establish its own unity, freedom and self-determination in the Greater Community, must establish this freedom and defend it if necessary. Otherwise, domination will certainly occur and will be complete.<br/><br/>Why do your visitors want your world? It is so very obvious. It is not you they are interested in particularly. It is the biological resources of your world. It is the strategic position of this solar system. You are useful to them only insofar as these things are valued and can be utilized. They will offer what you want and they will speak what you want to hear. They will offer inducements, and they will use your religions and your religious ideals to foster confidence and trust that they, more than you, understand the needs of your world and will be able to serve these needs to bring about a greater equanimity here. Because humanity seems incapable of establishing unity and order, many people will open their minds and their hearts to those whom they believe will have the greater possibility for doing so.<br/><br/>In the second discourse, we spoke briefly of the interbreeding program. Some have heard of this phenomenon, and we understand there has been some discussion about this. The Unseen Ones have told us that there is a growing awareness that such a program exists, but incredibly people cannot see the obvious implications, being so given to their preferences in the matter and so ill equipped to deal with what such an Intervention could mean. Clearly, an interbreeding program is an attempt to fuse humanity’s adaptation to the physical world with the visitors’ group mind and collective consciousness. Such offspring would be in a perfect position to provide the new leadership for humanity, a leadership that is born of the visitors’ intentions and the visitors’ campaign. These individuals would have blood relations in the world, and so others would be related to them and accepting of their presence. And yet their minds would not be with you, nor their hearts. And though they may feel sympathy for you in your condition and for what your condition may well turn out to be, they would not have the individual authority, not being trained in The Way of Knowledge and Insight themselves, to assist you or to resist the collective consciousness that has fostered them here and given them life.<br/><br/>You see, individual freedom is not valued by the visitors. They consider it reckless and irresponsible. They only understand their own collective consciousness, which they see as privileged and blessed. And yet they cannot access true spirituality, which is called Knowledge in the universe, for Knowledge is born of an individual’s self-discovery and is brought into being through relationships of a high caliber. Neither of these phenomena are present in the visitors’ social makeup. They cannot think for themselves. Their will is not theirs alone. And so naturally they cannot respect the prospects for developing these two great phenomena within your world, and they are certainly in no position to foster such things. They only seek conformity and allegiance. And the spiritual teachings that they will foster in the world will only serve to make humans compliant, open and unsuspecting in order to garner a trust that has never been earned.<br/><br/>We have seen these things before in other places. We have seen entire worlds fall under control of such collectives. There are many such collectives in the universe. Because such collectives deal with interplanetary trade and extend over vast regions, they adhere to a strict conformity without deviation. There is no individuality amongst them, at least not in any way that you could recognize.<br/><br/>We are not sure that we can give an example in your own world of what this could be like, but we have been told there are commercial interests that span cultures in your world, that wield tremendous power and yet are governed by only a few. This is perhaps a good analogy for what we are describing. However, what we are describing is so much more powerful, pervasive and well established than anything that you could offer in the world as a good example.<br/><br/>It is true of intelligent life everywhere that fear can be a destructive force. Yet fear serves one and only one purpose if it is perceived correctly and that is to inform you of the presence of danger. We are concerned, and that is the nature of our fear. We understand what is at risk. That is the nature of our concern. Your fear is born because you do not know what is occurring, so it is a destructive fear. It is a fear that cannot empower you or give you the perception that you need to comprehend what is occurring within your world. If you can become informed, then fear is transformed into concern and concern is transformed into constructive action. We know of no other way to describe this.<br/><br/>The interbreeding program is becoming very successful. Already there are those walking your Earth who are born of the visitors’ consciousness and collective endeavor. They cannot reside here for long periods of time, but within only a few years, they will be able to dwell upon the surface of your world permanently. Such will be the perfection of their genetic engineering that they will seem only slightly different from you, more in their manner and in their presence than in their physical appearance, to such a point that they will likely go unnoticed and unrecognized. However, they will have greater mental faculties. And this will give them an advantage that you could not match unless you were trained in The Ways of Insight.<br/><br/>Such is the greater reality into which humanity is emerging—a universe filled with wonders and horrors, a universe of influence, a universe of competition, yet also a universe filled with Grace, much like your own world but infinitely greater. The Heaven that you seek is not here. However, the forces that you must contend with are. This is the greatest threshold that your race will ever face. Each of us in our group has faced this in our own respective worlds, and there has been a great deal of failure, with only some success. Races of beings who can maintain their freedom and insulation must become strong and united and will likely withdraw from Greater Community interactions to a very great degree in order to protect that freedom.<br/><br/>If you think of these things, perhaps you will see corollaries in your own world. The Unseen Ones have told us a great deal regarding your spiritual development and its great promise, but they have also counseled us that your spiritual predispositions and ideals are being greatly manipulated at this time. There are entire teachings being introduced into the world now that teach human acquiescence and the suspension of critical abilities and value only that which is pleasurable and comfortable. These teachings are given to disable people’s ability to access Knowledge within themselves until people reach a point where they feel they are completely dependent upon greater forces that they cannot identify. At that point, they will follow whatever is given them to do, and even if they sense something is wrong, they will no longer have the power to resist.<br/><br/>Humanity has lived in isolation for a long time. Perhaps it is believed that such an Intervention cannot possibly take place and that each person has proprietary rights over his or her own consciousness and mind. But these are only assumptions. Yet we have been told that the Wise in your world have learned to overcome these assumptions and have gained the strength to establish their own Mental Environment. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.alliesofhumanity.org/chapter3-allies-of-humanity.php" id="posts_0x3_000076-000198_outside_link" target="_blank">To read More</a><br/><br/><br/><b>Declaration of Human Sovereignty<b><br/><br/>Regarding Contact with Extraterrestrial Nations and Forces<br/><br/>We, the People of Earth, extend greetings to all races in the Greater Community of the Universe. We acknowledge our common heritage before the Creator of all the Universe, both visible and invisible. We declare the planet Earth as humanity’s Planet of Genesis, our Homeworld, and our sacred inheritance. We pledge henceforth to sustain and preserve the Earth for all generations to come. We call upon all humanity to treat all races everywhere with wisdom and justice, here on Earth and throughout the Universe. <br/><br/>Fundamental Rights <br/><br/>We, the People of Earth, regard the need for freedom to be universal. Therefore, we hold that all individuals in all worlds are created equal and are endowed by the Creator with sacred and inalienable rights. Fundamental among these are the right to live as a free race on their Planet of Genesis, their Homeworld; the right of self-determination, self-sufficiency, and creative expression; the right to life without oppression; and the right to pursue in life a higher purpose and a higher calling that the Creator has provided to all. <br/><br/>Before the Greater Community of the Universe, we, the People of Earth, do now invoke these fundamental rights for ourselves and for our Homeworld, along with certain rights that naturally derive from them, including: <br/><br/>-The right of sovereignty. The People of Earth shall be self-governed and independent, neither subject to nor dependent upon any other authority. No extraterrestrial force shall contravene or abrogate the human sovereignty of this planet. <br/><br/>-The right of planetary sanctity. As our Planet of Genesis, the Earth shall be free from extraterrestrial intervention, intrusion, interference, or exploitation, both mental and physical. No extraterrestrial force shall make close approach, or assume close orbit, or make any landing, or engage in trade, except openly and with the expressed consent of the People of Earth achieved through a democratic means. <br/><br/>-The right of sanctity of biological and genetic material. No extraterrestrial power shall take, possess, or manipulate human biological or genetic material for any purpose whatsoever. <br/><br/>-The right of occupation. As the native people of the one known inhabited planet of this Solar System, we claim this Solar System as our sphere of influence. No extraterrestrial bases may be established on bodies or stations orbiting the Earth, nor on other planets or bodies of this Solar System, except with the expressed consent of the People of Earth. <br/><br/>-The right of peaceful navigation. We claim the right to travel and explore within our Solar System without interference or restraint from extraterrestrial forces, and maintain the right to deny access to this Solar System by any extraterrestrial forces. <br/><br/>We, the People of Earth, consider it our rightful responsibility to assert and defend these fundamental rights, and to give and receive aid consistent with these rights. In the case of any dispute with extraterrestrial forces, the burden of proof of innocence shall fall on those who are not native to Earth. <br/><br/>The Assessment <br/><br/>When in the course of their evolution it becomes necessary for the native people of a planet to unite, to transcend the conflicts and differences that have separated them from one another, and to assume among the powers of the Universe a separate and equal sovereignty, a respectful consideration of that sovereignty requires that they declare the causes which impel them to this present course of action. <br/><br/>Although the Earth has undergone a long history of extraterrestrial visitation, the current situation is that the People of Earth are now suffering the effects of a global extraterrestrial intervention into human affairs. This intervention employs a strategy of deception, manipulation, and exploitation, the goal of which is control over humanity, which will result in the loss of human freedom and self-determination. It is now the sacred right and duty of the People of Earth to oppose, resist, and repel this extraterrestrial intervention, to declare and defend our sovereignty, our freedom, and our independence from all extraterrestrial forces. <br/><br/>Let these violations be considered by those supporting the cause of freedom throughout the Greater Community: <br/><br/>-Intervening extraterrestrial forces have refused to openly disclose and reveal the nature and intent of their activities on and around Earth. This extraterrestrial presence is clandestine, covert, uninvited, and unapproved by the People of Earth. These extraterrestrial forces have concealed their own identity, their political or economic alliances and allegiances, as well as the authorities and powers which they serve. <br/><br/>-As is becoming increasingly apparent from their actions, extraterrestrial forces intend to exploit the Earth, its resources, and its people, and are engaged in a systematic program of colonizing humanity into a subservient client state to be ruled by agents of these extraterrestrial forces. The extraterrestrial intervention and occupation seeks commercial gain, economic power, and the strategic advantage offered by this world in relation to other worlds. <br/><br/>-Extraterrestrial forces have repeatedly and with impunity violated national and international laws of the Earth’s people. These offenses, which still continue today, have included violation of restricted airspace; abduction and transportation of humans without their consent; murder, rape, torture, sexual abuse, interbreeding with humans, and cruel experimentation; theft and trade of human biological and genetic materials; theft and trade of Earth’s natural resources; covert mental and psychological influence; mutilation of humans and animals; tampering with and disabling of military defense systems; and clandestine infiltration into human society. <br/><br/>-Extraterrestrial forces have secretly negotiated treaties and agreements with human individuals and groups, without the informed consent of the People of Earth. <br/><br/>-Extraterrestrial forces have systematically attempted to persuade and mislead humans through extending false hopes and promises of wealth, power, and protection; rescue from planetary catastrophe; membership in a “galactic federation”; and spiritual salvation and enlightenment. <br/><br/>-Extraterrestrial forces have exploited and exacerbated human conflicts to serve their own ends. <br/><br/>-Extraterrestrial forces have been disempowering humanity by leading us to believe that we can only survive with their help and their advanced technology, thus fostering our complete dependence upon them and denying our ability to ensure our own survival. <br/><br/>Demands and Declarations<br/><br/>Accordingly, we, the People of Earth, do hereby declare all previously existing agreements or treaties between any human government, group, or individual and any extraterrestrials to be forthwith null, void, and permanently suspended. We demand that any such previously existing treaties or agreements be fully and publicly disclosed. Any future agreements or treaties between human governments, groups, or individuals and extraterrestrials must be negotiated only with the full consent of the People of Earth, publicly and openly expressed by an international democratic body representing the nations and peoples of Earth. <br/><br/>We demand that all extraterrestrials now cease all operations and activities and immediately vacate and depart from the Earth and its surroundings including the Sun, Earth’s Moon, and all planets of this Solar System. This includes vacating any natural or artificial satellites, as well as all space within the Solar System. <br/><br/>We demand that all extraterrestrial organizations who have established or operated bases on the Earth, its Moon, or anywhere else within this Solar System, dismantle these bases and fully disclose their nature. <br/><br/>We further demand that all living humans who are now in custody of extraterrestrials be returned immediately in good health; further, we demand a full accounting of all humans who have been taken or held by extraterrestrials, including those who have died in captivity. In addition, we demand that all human biological or genetic materials taken from any individuals be accounted for and destroyed, and their intended use be identified. Any devices implanted in living individuals must be identified so that they may be safely removed.<br/><br/>We demand full public disclosure of the purpose and details of the extraterrestrial hybridization program, including the location, identity, and activities of all living human-extraterrestrial hybrids, whether on Earth or elsewhere.<br/><br/>Be it known throughout the Universe that from this time forward, extraterrestrials may only enter our Solar System, approach our Earth, fly in our skies, set foot on our soil, or enter our waters with the explicit consent of the People of Earth.<br/><br/>We, therefore, do solemnly declare that the People of Earth are and should be a free and independent people; that all humans are hereby absolved from all allegiance to extraterrestrial powers, and that all political and economic connections between them and the People of Earth are totally dissolved; that as a free and sovereign race in the Greater Community of the Universe, we assume full power within this Solar System to conclude peace, levy war, contract alliances, establish commerce, and to undertake all other actions which a sovereign planetary race may rightfully and ethically do. <br/><br/>Concluding Statement<br/><br/>Let it be understood that in making this Declaration of Human Sovereignty, we, the People of Earth, affirm our future and destiny as a free race within a Greater Community of intelligent life. We recognize that we are a part of this Greater Community and that we are destined over time to encounter many different races from beyond our world. <br/><br/>To them and to all others, we hereby declare that our intention is not conquest or domination in space. We declare that the rights and privileges that we affirm here for ourselves, we also affirm for all races of beings whom we might encounter. <br/><br/>In making our Declaration of Human Sovereignty, we proclaim our rights, responsibilities, and privileges as a free race in order that we may pursue greater unity, peace, and cooperation within the human family without unwanted or unwarranted intrusion and interference by any outside nation or force from the Greater Community. We make this proclamation as an expression of our Divine right and honorable intent for the human family and for all races in the Universe who seek to be free.<br/><br/><a href="http://www.humansovereignty.org/" id="posts_0x4_000076-000198_outside_link" target="_blank">Declaration of Sovereignty</a><br/><br/><a href="http://www.humansovereignty.org" id="posts_0x5_000076-000198_outside_link" target="_blank">Website: Human Sovereignty</a><br/><br/><a href="http://www.newmessage.org/books/steps-to-knowledge.php" id="posts_0x6_000076-000198_outside_link" target="_blank">Steps to Knowledge Book</a> <br/><br/><a href="http://www.humansovereignty.org/" id="posts_0x7_000076-000198_outside_link" target="_blank">Declaration of Sovereignty</a><br/><br/><a href="http://www.alliesofhumanity.org/interviews-marshallsummers-alliesofhumanity.php" id="posts_0x8_000076-000198_outside_link" target="_blank">Listen to Interviews</a><br/>]]></content>

I spoke and listened to groups of Americans from all walks of life. They told me new and always harsher stories of state coercion.<br/><br/>What I had called a "fascist shift" in the United States, projections I had warned about as worst-case scenarios, was now surpassing my imagination: in 2008, thousands of terrified, shackled illegal immigrants were rounded up in the mass arrests which always characterize a closing society; news emerged that the 9/11 report had been based on evidence derived from the testimonies of prisoners who had been tortured -- and the tapes that documented their torture were missing -- leading the commissioners of the report publicly to disavow their own findings; the Associated Press reported that the torture of prisoners in U.S.-held facilities had not been the work of "a few bad apples" but had been directed out of the White House; the TSA "watch list," which had contained 45,000 names when I wrote my last book, ballooned to 755,000 names and 20,000 were being added every month; Scott McClellan confirmed that the drive to war in Iraq had been based on administration lies; HR 1955, legislation that would criminalize certain kinds of political thought and speech, passed the House and made it to the Senate; Blackwater, a violent paramilitary force not answerable to the people, established presences in Illinois and North Carolina and sought to get into border patrol activity in San Diego.<br/><br/>The White House has established, no matter who leads the nation in the future, U.S. government spying on the emails and phone calls of Americans -- a permanent violation of the Constitution's Fourth Amendment. The last step of the ten steps to a closed society is the subversion of the rule of law. That is happening now. What critics have called a "paper coup" has already taken place.<br/><br/>Yes, the situation is dire. But history shows that when an army of citizens, supported by even a vestige of civil society, believes in liberty -- in the psychological space that is "America" -- no power on earth can ultimately suppress them.<br/><br/>Dissident Natan Sharansky writes that there are two kinds of states -- "fear societies" and "free societies." Understood in this light, "America" -- the state of freedom that is under attack -- is first of all a place in the mind. That is what we must regain now to fight back.<br/><br/>The two societies make up two kinds of consciousness. The consciousness derived of oppression is despairing, fatalistic, and fearful of inquiry. It is mistrustful of the self and forced to trust external authority. It is premised on a dearth of self-respect. It is cramped. People around the world understand that this kind of inner experience is as toxic an environment as is a polluted waterway they are forced to drink from; it is as insufficient a space as being compelled to sleep in a one-room hut with seven other bodies on the floor.<br/><br/>In contrast, the consciousness of freedom -- the psychology of freedom that is "America" -- is one of expansiveness, trust of the self, and hope. It is a consciousness of limitless inquiry. "Everything," wrote Denis Diderot, who influenced, via Thomas Jefferson, the Revolutionary generation, "must be examined, everything must be shaken up, without exception and without circumspection." Jefferson wrote that American universities are "based on the illimitable freedom of the human mind. For here we are not afraid to follow truth wherever it may lead, nor to tolerate any error so long as reason is left free to combat it." Since this state of mind is self-trusting, it builds up in a citizen a wealth of self-respect. "Your own reason," wrote Jefferson to his nephew, "is the only oracle given you by heaven, and you are answerable not for the rightness but the uprightness of the decision."<br/><br/>After my cross-country journey, I realized that I needed to go back and read about the original Revolutionaries of our nation. I realized in a new way from them that liberty is not a set of laws or a system of government; it is not a nation or a species of patriotism. Liberty is a state of mind before it is anything else. You can have a nation of wealth and power, but without this state of mind -- this psychological "America" -- you are living in a deadening consciousness; with this state of mind, you can be in a darkened cell waiting for your torturer to arrive and yet inhabit a chainless space as wide as the sky.<br/><br/>"America," too, is a state of mind. "Being an American" is a set of attitudes and actions, not a nationality or a posture of reflexive loyalty. This tribe of true "Americans" consists of people who have crossed a personal Rubicon of a specific kind and can no longer be satisfied with anything less than absolute liberty.<br/><br/>This state of mind, I learned, has no national boundaries. The Tibetans, who, as I write this, are marching in the face of Chinese soldiers, are acting like members of this tribe; so did the Pakistani lawyers who recently faced down house arrest and tear gas in their suits and judicial robes. Nathan Hale, Patrick Henry, and Ida B. Wells, who risked their lives for liberty, acted like "Americans." When the crusading journalist Anna Politkovskaya insisted on reporting on war crimes in Chechnya, even though her informing her fellow citizens led -- as she knew it well could -- to her being gunned down on her doorstep as she went home to her fourteen-year-old daughter, she was acting like an American. When three JAG lawyers refused to sell out their detainee clients, they were being "Americans." When Vietnam vet David Antoon risked his career to speak out in favor of the Constitution's separation of church and state, he was being an "American." When journalist Josh Wolf went to jail rather than reveal a source, he was being an "American" too. Always, everywhere, the members of this tribe are fundamentally the same, in spite of the great deal that may divide them in terms of clothing and religion, language and culture. But when we quietly go about our business as our rights are plundered, when we yield to passivity and switch on the Wii and hand over our power to a leadership class that has no interest in our voice, we are not acting like true Americans. Indeed, at those moments we are essentially giving up our citizenship.<br/><br/>The notion that "American-ness" is a state of mind -- a rigorous psychodynamic process or a continued personal challenge, rather than a static point on a map or an impressive display in a Fourth of July parade -- is not new. But we are so used to being raised on a rhetoric of cheap patriotism -- the kind that you get to tune in to in a feel-good way just because you were lucky enough to have been born here and can then pretty much forget about -- that this definition seems positively exotic. The founders understood "American-ness" in this way, though, not at all in our way.<br/><br/>And today, I learned as I traveled, we are very far from experiencing this connection to our source. Many of us feel ourselves clouded within, cramped, baffled obscurely from without, not in alignment with the electric source that is liberty. So it is easy for us to rationalize always further and more aggressive cramping and clouding; is the government spying on us? Well...Okay...So now the telecommunications companies are asking for retroactive immunity for their spying on us? Well...Okay...Once a certain threshold of passivity has been crossed, it becomes easier and easier, as Benjamin Franklin warned, to trade liberty for a false security -- and deserve neither.<br/><br/>What struck me on my journey was how powerless so many Americans felt to make change. Many citizens I heard from felt more hopeless than did citizens of some of the poorest and youngest democracies on the planet. Others were angrier than ever and were speaking up and acting up with fervor. I felt that all of us -- the hopeless and the hopeful -- needed to reconnect to our mentors, the founders, and to remind ourselves of the blueprint for freedom they meant us to inherit. I wrote this handbook with the faith that if Americans take personal ownership of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, they can push back any darkness. The first two sections of this refresher guide to our liberties recall what America is supposed to be; the last third is a practical how-to for citizen leadership for a new American Revolution.<br/><br/>There are concrete laws we must pass to restore liberty and actions we must take to safeguard it. You will find them in the last third of this handbook. But more crucial than any list of laws or actions is our own need to rediscover our role as American revolutionaries and to reclaim the "America" in ourselves -- in our consciousness as free men and women.<br/><br/>Do we have the right to see ourselves this way? Absolutely. Many histories of our nation's founding focus on a small group, "a band of brothers" or "the Founding Fathers" -- the handful of illustrious men whose names we all know. This tight focus tends to reinforce the idea that we are the lucky recipients of the American gift of liberty and of the republic, not ourselves its stewards, crafters, and defenders. It prepares us to think of ourselves as the led, not as the leaders.<br/><br/>But historians are also now documenting the stories of how in the pre-Revolutionary years, ordinary people -- farmers, free and enslaved Africans, washer-women, butchers, printers, apprentices, carpenters, penniless soldiers, artisans, wheelwrights, teachers, indentured servants -- were rising up against the king's representatives, debating the nature of liberty, fighting the war and following the warriors to support them, insisting on expanding the franchise, demanding the right to vote, compelling the more aristocratic leaders of the community to include them in deliberations about the nature of the state constitutions, and requiring transparency and accountability in the legislative process. Even enslaved Africans, those Americans most silenced by history, were not only debating in their own communities the implications or the ideas of God-given liberty that the white colonists were debating; they were also taking up arms against George III's men in hopes that the new republic would emancipate them. Some were petitioning state legislatures for their freedom; and others were even successfully bringing lawsuits against their owners, arguing in court for their inalienable rights as human beings. This is the revolutionary spirit that we must claim again for ourselves -- fast -- if we are to save the country.<br/><br/>When Abraham Lincoln said that our nation was "conceived in Liberty" he was not simply phrasemaking; our nation was literally "conceived" by Enlightenment ideas that were becoming more and more current, waking up greater and greater numbers of ordinary people, and finally bearing on our own founders, known and unknown, with ever-stronger pressure.<br/><br/>Key Enlightenment beliefs of the colonial era are these: human beings are perfectible; the right structures of society, at the heart of which is a representational government whose power derives from the consent of the governed, facilitate this continual evolution; reason is the means by which ordinary people can successfully rule themselves and attain liberty; the right to liberty is universal, God given, and part of a natural cosmic order, or "natural law"; as more and more people around the world claim their God-given right to liberty, tyranny and oppression will be pushed aside. It is worth reminding ourselves of these founding ideas at a time when they are under sustained attack.<br/><br/>The core ideals, the essence, of what the founders imperfectly glimpsed, are perfect. I am often asked how I can so champion the writing and accomplishments of the better-known founders. Most of them were, of course, propertied, white, and male. Critics on the left often point out their flaws in relation to the very ideals they put forward. John Adams was never comfortable with true citizen democracy. "Jefferson's writings about race reveal that he saw Africans as innately deficient in humanity and culture." When a male slave escaped from Benjamin Franklin in England, Franklin sold him back into slavery.<br/><br/>But the essence of the idea of liberty and equality that they codified -- an idea that was being debated and developed by men and women, black and white, of all classes in the pre-Revolutionary generation -- went further than such an idea had ever gone before. It is humanity's most radical blueprint for transformation.<br/><br/>More important, the idea itself carries within it the moral power to correct the contradictions in its execution that were obvious from the very birth of the new nation. An enslaved woman, Mum Bett, who became a housekeeper for the Sedgwick family of Massachussetts, successfully sued for her own emancipation using the language of the Declaration of Independence; decades later a slave, Dred Scott, argued that he was "entitled to his freedom" as a citizen and a resident of a free state. The first suffragists at the Seneca Falls Convention, intent on securing equal rights for women, used the framework of the Declaration of Independence to advance their cause. New democracies in developing nations around the world draw on our founding documents and government structure to ground their own hopes for freedom. The human beings at the helm of the new nation, whatever their limitations, were truly revolutionary. The theory of liberty born in that era, the seed of the idea, was, as I say, perfect. We should not look to other revolutions to inspire us; nothing is more transformative than our own revolution. We must neither oversentimentalize it, as the right tends to do, nor disdain it, as the left tends to do; rather we must reclaim it.<br/><br/>The stories I read and reread of the "spirit of 1776" led me with new faith to these conclusions: We are not to wait for others to lead. You and I are meant to take back the founders' mandate, and you and I are meant to lead. You and I must protest, you and I must confront our representatives, you and I must run for office, you and I must write the opeds, you and I must take over the battle. The founders -- the unknown as well as the well-known Americans who "conceived" the nation in liberty -- did not intend for us to delegate worrying about the Constitution to a cadre of constitutional scholars, or to leave debate to a class of professional pundits, or to leave the job of fighting for liberty to a caste of politicians. They meant for us to defend the Constitution, for us to debate the issues of the day, and for us to rise up against tyranny: the American who delivers the mail; the American who teaches our children; ordinary people.<br/><br/>In my reading, I went back as if to contact our mentors. I looked for practical advice and moral support from those who had stood up for the ideal.We need a strategy for a new American uprising against those who would suppress our rights; we need what Lincoln would have called "a new birth of freedom." As readers of Tom Paine's Common Sense had to realize, we are not declaring war on an oppressor -- rather, we have to realize that the war has already, quietly, systemically, been declared against us.<br/><br/>Today we have most of our rights still codified on paper -- but these documents are indeed "only paper" if we no longer experience them viscerally, if their violation no longer infuriates us. We can be citizens of a republic; we can have a Constitution and a Congress; but if we, the people, have fallen asleep to the meaning of the Constitution and to the radical implications of representative and direct democracy, then we aren't really Americans anymore.<br/><br/>So we must listen to the original revolutionaries and to current ones as well, and explain their ideas clearly to new generations. To hear the voices of the original vision and the voices of those modern heroes, here in the U.S. and around the world, who are true heirs to the American Revolution is to feel your wishes change. "[Freedom] liberated us the day we stopped living in a world where 'truth' and 'falsehood' were, like everything else, the property of the State. And for the most part, this liberation did not stop when we were sentenced to prison," wrote Sharansky. "I was not born to be forced," wrote Henry David Thoreau. "I will breathe after my own fashion. Let us see who is the strongest...they only can force me to obey a higher law than I." You want to stay in that room where these revolutionaries are conversing in this electrifying way among themselves. It feels painful but ultimately cleansing and energizing. You want to be more like them; then you realize that maybe you can be -- then finally you realize that you already are.<br/><br/>Our "America," our Constitution, our dream, when properly felt within us, does more than "defend freedom." It clears space to build the society that allows for the highest possible development of who we ourselves personally were meant to be.<br/><br/>We have to rise up in self-defense and legitimate rebellion. We need more drastic action than e-mails to Congress.<br/><br/>We need the next revolution.<br/><br/><br/>********************************************************************************<br/><br/>"Naomi Wolf's End of America is a vivid, urgent, mandatory wake up call that addresses momentous issues of tyranny, democracy, survival: Who are we now? How did it come to this? Government by decree, torture by decree, secret prisons, disappeared prisoners. Others before us have lived in a rule-by-one, no checks and balances, security-imprisonment state that ended habeas corpus, due process of law, the right to know and access to information. But this is America! What about voting rights? Will there ever again be a paper trail? Can democracy be restored? For enlightenment and hope, we would all do well to carry about and give to all our allies Naomi Wolfs profound and urgent essay. It is the book we need to carry with us as we regroup and rally for the return of justice and political sanity."<br/><br/>—Blanche Wiesen Cook, author of the three-volume Eleanor Roosevelt and distinguished professor at John Jay College<br/><br/>New York Times Bestseller!<br/><br/>In a stunning indictment of the Bush administration and Congress, best-selling author Naomi Wolf lays out her case for saving American democracy. In authoritative research and documentation Wolf explains how events of the last six years parallel steps taken in the early years of the 20th century’s worst dictatorships such as Germany, Russia, China, and Chile.<br/><br/>The book cuts across political parties and ideologies and speaks directly to those among us who are concerned about the ever-tightening noose being placed around our liberties.<br/><br/>In this timely call to arms, Naomi Wolf compels us to face the way our free America is under assault. She warns us–with the straight-to-fellow-citizens urgency of one of Thomas Paine’s revolutionary pamphlets–that we have little time to lose if our children are to live in real freedom.<br/><br/>“Recent history has profound lessons for us in the U.S. today about how fascist, totalitarian, and other repressive leaders seize and maintain power, especially in what were once democracies. The secret is that these leaders all tend to take very similar, parallel steps. The Founders of this nation were so deeply familiar with tyranny and the habits and practices of tyrants that they set up our checks and balances precisely out of fear of what is unfolding today. We are seeing these same kinds of tactics now closing down freedoms in America, turning our nation into something that in the near future could be quite other than the open society in which we grew up and learned to love liberty,” states Wolf.<br/><br/>Wolf is taking her message directly to the American people in the most accessible form and as part of a large national campaign to reach out to ordinary Americans about the dangers we face today. This includes a lecture and speaking tour, and being part of the nascent American Freedom Campaign, a grassroots effort to ensure that presidential candidates pledge to uphold the constitution and protect our liberties from further erosion.<br/><br/>The End of America will shock, enrage, and motivate–spurring us to act, as the Founders would have counted on us to do in a time such as this, as rebels and patriots–to save our liberty and defend our nation.<br/><br/>[b]Ten Steps To Close Down an Open Society[/b]<br/><br/>Posted April 24, 2007 | 12:07 PM (EST)<br/>Breaking Home News<br/><br/>Last autumn, there was a military coup in Thailand. The leaders of the coup took a number of steps, rather systematically, as if they had a shopping list. In a sense, they did. Within a matter of days, democracy had been closed down: the coup leaders declared martial law, sent armed soldiers into residential areas, took over radio and TV stations, issued restrictions on the press, tightened some limits on travel, and took certain activists into custody.<br/><br/>They were not figuring these things out as they went along. If you look at history, you can see that there is essentially a blueprint for turning an open society into a dictatorship. That blueprint has been used again and again in more and less bloody, more and less terrifying ways. But it is always effective. It is very difficult and arduous to create and sustain a democracy - but history shows that closing one down is much simpler. You simply have to be willing to take the 10 steps.<br/><br/>As difficult as this is to contemplate, it is clear, if you are willing to look, that each of these 10 steps has already been initiated today in the United States by the Bush administration.<br/><br/>Because Americans like me were born in freedom, we have a hard time even considering that it is possible for us to become as unfree - domestically - as many other nations. Because we no longer learn much about our rights or our system of government - the task of being aware of the constitution has been outsourced from citizens' ownership to being the domain of professionals such as lawyers and professors - we scarcely recognise the checks and balances that the founders put in place, even as they are being systematically dismantled. Because we don't learn much about European history, the setting up of a department of "homeland" security - remember who else was keen on the word "homeland" - didn't raise the alarm bells it might have.<br/><br/>It is my argument that, beneath our very noses, George Bush and his administration are using time-tested tactics to close down an open society. It is time for us to be willing to think the unthinkable - as the author and political journalist Joe Conason, has put it, that it can happen here. And that we are further along than we realise.<br/><br/>Conason eloquently warned of the danger of American authoritarianism. I am arguing that we need also to look at the lessons of European and other kinds of fascism to understand the potential seriousness of the events we see unfolding in the US.<br/><br/>1 Invoke a terrifying internal and external enemy<br/><br/>After we were hit on September 11 2001, we were in a state of national shock. Less than six weeks later, on October 26 2001, the USA Patriot Act was passed by a Congress that had little chance to debate it; many said that they scarcely had time to read it. We were told we were now on a "war footing"; we were in a "global war" against a "global caliphate" intending to "wipe out civilisation". There have been other times of crisis in which the US accepted limits on civil liberties, such as during the civil war, when Lincoln declared martial law, and the second world war, when thousands of Japanese-American citizens were interned. But this situation, as Bruce Fein of the American Freedom Agenda has noted, is unprecedented: all our other wars had an endpoint, so the pendulum was able to swing back toward freedom; this war is defined as open-ended in time and without national boundaries in space - the globe itself is the battlefield. "This time," Fein says, "there will be no defined end."<br/><br/>Creating a terrifying threat - hydra-like, secretive, evil - is an old trick. It can, like Hitler's invocation of a communist threat to the nation's security, be based on actual events (one Wisconsin academic has faced calls for his dismissal because he noted, among other things, that the alleged communist arson, the Reichstag fire of February 1933, was swiftly followed in Nazi Germany by passage of the Enabling Act, which replaced constitutional law with an open-ended state of emergency). Or the terrifying threat can be based, like the National Socialist evocation of the "global conspiracy of world Jewry", on myth.<br/><br/>It is not that global Islamist terrorism is not a severe danger; of course it is. I am arguing rather that the language used to convey the nature of the threat is different in a country such as Spain - which has also suffered violent terrorist attacks - than it is in America. Spanish citizens know that they face a grave security threat; what we as American citizens believe is that we are potentially threatened with the end of civilisation as we know it. Of course, this makes us more willing to accept restrictions on our freedoms.<br/><br/>2 Create a gulag<br/><br/>Once you have got everyone scared, the next step is to create a prison system outside the rule of law (as Bush put it, he wanted the American detention centre at Guantánamo Bay to be situated in legal "outer space") - where torture takes place.<br/><br/>At first, the people who are sent there are seen by citizens as outsiders: troublemakers, spies, "enemies of the people" or "criminals". Initially, citizens tend to support the secret prison system; it makes them feel safer and they do not identify with the prisoners. But soon enough, civil society leaders - opposition members, labour activists, clergy and journalists - are arrested and sent there as well.<br/><br/>This process took place in fascist shifts or anti-democracy crackdowns ranging from Italy and Germany in the 1920s and 1930s to the Latin American coups of the 1970s and beyond. It is standard practice for closing down an open society or crushing a pro-democracy uprising.<br/><br/>With its jails in Iraq and Afghanistan, and, of course, Guantánamo in Cuba, where detainees are abused, and kept indefinitely without trial and without access to the due process of the law, America certainly has its gulag now. Bush and his allies in Congress recently announced they would issue no information about the secret CIA "black site" prisons throughout the world, which are used to incarcerate people who have been seized off the street.<br/><br/>Gulags in history tend to metastasise, becoming ever larger and more secretive, ever more deadly and formalised. We know from first-hand accounts, photographs, videos and government documents that people, innocent and guilty, have been tortured in the US-run prisons we are aware of and those we can't investigate adequately.<br/><br/>But Americans still assume this system and detainee abuses involve only scary brown people with whom they don't generally identify. It was brave of the conservative pundit William Safire to quote the anti-Nazi pastor Martin Niemöller, who had been seized as a political prisoner: "First they came for the Jews." Most Americans don't understand yet that the destruction of the rule of law at Guantánamo set a dangerous precedent for them, too.<br/><br/>By the way, the establishment of military tribunals that deny prisoners due process tends to come early on in a fascist shift. Mussolini and Stalin set up such tribunals. On April 24 1934, the Nazis, too, set up the People's Court, which also bypassed the judicial system: prisoners were held indefinitely, often in isolation, and tortured, without being charged with offences, and were subjected to show trials. Eventually, the Special Courts became a parallel system that put pressure on the regular courts to abandon the rule of law in favour of Nazi ideology when making decisions.<br/><br/>3 Develop a thug caste<br/><br/>When leaders who seek what I call a "fascist shift" want to close down an open society, they send paramilitary groups of scary young men out to terrorise citizens. The Blackshirts roamed the Italian countryside beating up communists; the Brownshirts staged violent rallies throughout Germany. This paramilitary force is especially important in a democracy: you need citizens to fear thug violence and so you need thugs who are free from prosecution.<br/><br/>The years following 9/11 have proved a bonanza for America's security contractors, with the Bush administration outsourcing areas of work that traditionally fell to the US military. In the process, contracts worth hundreds of millions of dollars have been issued for security work by mercenaries at home and abroad. In Iraq, some of these contract operatives have been accused of involvement in torturing prisoners, harassing journalists and firing on Iraqi civilians. Under Order 17, issued to regulate contractors in Iraq by the one-time US administrator in Baghdad, Paul Bremer, these contractors are immune from prosecution<br/><br/>Yes, but that is in Iraq, you could argue; however, after Hurricane Katrina, the Department of Homeland Security hired and deployed hundreds of armed private security guards in New Orleans. The investigative journalist Jeremy Scahill interviewed one unnamed guard who reported having fired on unarmed civilians in the city. It was a natural disaster that underlay that episode - but the administration's endless war on terror means ongoing scope for what are in effect privately contracted armies to take on crisis and emergency management at home in US cities.<br/><br/>Thugs in America? Groups of angry young Republican men, dressed in identical shirts and trousers, menaced poll workers counting the votes in Florida in 2000. If you are reading history, you can imagine that there can be a need for "public order" on the next election day. Say there are protests, or a threat, on the day of an election; history would not rule out the presence of a private security firm at a polling station "to restore public order".<br/><br/>4 Set up an internal surveillance system<br/><br/>In Mussolini's Italy, in Nazi Germany, in communist East Germany, in communist China - in every closed society - secret police spy on ordinary people and encourage neighbours to spy on neighbours. The Stasi needed to keep only a minority of East Germans under surveillance to convince a majority that they themselves were being watched.<br/><br/>In 2005 and 2006, when James Risen and Eric Lichtblau wrote in the New York Times about a secret state programme to wiretap citizens' phones, read their emails and follow international financial transactions, it became clear to ordinary Americans that they, too, could be under state scrutiny.<br/><br/>In closed societies, this surveillance is cast as being about "national security"; the true function is to keep citizens docile and inhibit their activism and dissent.<br/><br/>5 Harass citizens' groups<br/><br/>The fifth thing you do is related to step four - you infiltrate and harass citizens' groups. It can be trivial: a church in Pasadena, whose minister preached that Jesus was in favour of peace, found itself being investigated by the Internal Revenue Service, while churches that got Republicans out to vote, which is equally illegal under US tax law, have been left alone.<br/><br/>Other harassment is more serious: the American Civil Liberties Union reports that thousands of ordinary American anti-war, environmental and other groups have been infiltrated by agents: a secret Pentagon database includes more than four dozen peaceful anti-war meetings, rallies or marches by American citizens in its category of 1,500 "suspicious incidents". The equally secret Counterintelligence Field Activity (Cifa) agency of the Department of Defense has been gathering information about domestic organisations engaged in peaceful political activities: Cifa is supposed to track "potential terrorist threats" as it watches ordinary US citizen activists. A little-noticed new law has redefined activism such as animal rights protests as "terrorism". So the definition of "terrorist" slowly expands to include the opposition.<br/><br/>6 Engage in arbitrary detention and release<br/><br/>This scares people. It is a kind of cat-and-mouse game. Nicholas D Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn, the investigative reporters who wrote China Wakes: the Struggle for the Soul of a Rising Power, describe pro-democracy activists in China, such as Wei Jingsheng, being arrested and released many times. In a closing or closed society there is a "list" of dissidents and opposition leaders: you are targeted in this way once you are on the list, and it is hard to get off the list.<br/><br/>In 2004, America's Transportation Security Administration confirmed that it had a list of passengers who were targeted for security searches or worse if they tried to fly. People who have found themselves on the list? Two middle-aged women peace activists in San Francisco; liberal Senator Edward Kennedy; a member of Venezuela's government - after Venezuela's president had criticised Bush; and thousands of ordinary US citizens.<br/><br/>Professor Walter F Murphy is emeritus of Princeton University; he is one of the foremost constitutional scholars in the nation and author of the classic Constitutional Democracy. Murphy is also a decorated former marine, and he is not even especially politically liberal. But on March 1 this year, he was denied a boarding pass at Newark, "because I was on the Terrorist Watch list".<br/><br/>"Have you been in any peace marches? We ban a lot of people from flying because of that," asked the airline employee.<br/><br/>"I explained," said Murphy, "that I had not so marched but had, in September 2006, given a lecture at Princeton, televised and put on the web, highly critical of George Bush for his many violations of the constitution."<br/><br/>"That'll do it," the man said.<br/><br/>Anti-war marcher? Potential terrorist. Support the constitution? Potential terrorist. History shows that the categories of "enemy of the people" tend to expand ever deeper into civil life.<br/><br/>James Yee, a US citizen, was the Muslim chaplain at Guantánamo who was accused of mishandling classified documents. He was harassed by the US military before the charges against him were dropped. Yee has been detained and released several times. He is still of interest.<br/><br/>Brandon Mayfield, a US citizen and lawyer in Oregon, was mistakenly identified as a possible terrorist. His house was secretly broken into and his computer seized. Though he is innocent of the accusation against him, he is still on the list.<br/><br/>It is a standard practice of fascist societies that once you are on the list, you can't get off.<br/><br/>7 Target key individuals<br/><br/>Threaten civil servants, artists and academics with job loss if they don't toe the line. Mussolini went after the rectors of state universities who did not conform to the fascist line; so did Joseph Goebbels, who purged academics who were not pro-Nazi; so did Chile's Augusto Pinochet; so does the Chinese communist Politburo in punishing pro-democracy students and professors.<br/><br/>Academe is a tinderbox of activism, so those seeking a fascist shift punish academics and students with professional loss if they do not "coordinate", in Goebbels' term, ideologically. Since civil servants are the sector of society most vulnerable to being fired by a given regime, they are also a group that fascists typically "coordinate" early on: the Reich Law for the Re-establishment of a Professional Civil Service was passed on April 7 1933.<br/><br/>Bush supporters in state legislatures in several states put pressure on regents at state universities to penalise or fire academics who have been critical of the administration. As for civil servants, the Bush administration has derailed the career of one military lawyer who spoke up for fair trials for detainees, while an administration official publicly intimidated the law firms that represent detainees pro bono by threatening to call for their major corporate clients to boycott them.<br/><br/>Elsewhere, a CIA contract worker who said in a closed blog that "waterboarding is torture" was stripped of the security clearance she needed in order to do her job.<br/><br/>Most recently, the administration purged eight US attorneys for what looks like insufficient political loyalty. When Goebbels purged the civil service in April 1933, attorneys were "coordinated" too, a step that eased the way of the increasingly brutal laws to follow.<br/><br/>8 Control the press<br/><br/>Italy in the 1920s, Germany in the 30s, East Germany in the 50s, Czechoslovakia in the 60s, the Latin American dictatorships in the 70s, China in the 80s and 90s - all dictatorships and would-be dictators target newspapers and journalists. They threaten and harass them in more open societies that they are seeking to close, and they arrest them and worse in societies that have been closed already.<br/><br/>The Committee to Protect Journalists says arrests of US journalists are at an all-time high: Josh Wolf (no relation), a blogger in San Francisco, has been put in jail for a year for refusing to turn over video of an anti-war demonstration; Homeland Security brought a criminal complaint against reporter Greg Palast, claiming he threatened "critical infrastructure" when he and a TV producer were filming victims of Hurricane Katrina in Louisiana. Palast had written a bestseller critical of the Bush administration.<br/><br/>Other reporters and writers have been punished in other ways. Joseph C Wilson accused Bush, in a New York Times op-ed, of leading the country to war on the basis of a false charge that Saddam Hussein had acquired yellowcake uranium in Niger. His wife, Valerie Plame, was outed as a CIA spy - a form of retaliation that ended her career.<br/><br/>Prosecution and job loss are nothing, though, compared with how the US is treating journalists seeking to cover the conflict in Iraq in an unbiased way. The Committee to Protect Journalists has documented multiple accounts of the US military in Iraq firing upon or threatening to fire upon unembedded (meaning independent) reporters and camera operators from organisations ranging from al-Jazeera to the BBC. While westerners may question the accounts by al-Jazeera, they should pay attention to the accounts of reporters such as the BBC's Kate Adie. In some cases reporters have been wounded or killed, including ITN's Terry Lloyd in 2003. Both CBS and the Associated Press in Iraq had staff members seized by the US military and taken to violent prisons; the news organisations were unable to see the evidence against their staffers.<br/><br/>Over time in closing societies, real news is supplanted by fake news and false documents. Pinochet showed Chilean citizens falsified documents to back up his claim that terrorists had been about to attack the nation. The yellowcake charge, too, was based on forged papers.<br/><br/>You won't have a shutdown of news in modern America - it is not possible. But you can have, as Frank Rich and Sidney Blumenthal have pointed out, a steady stream of lies polluting the news well. What you already have is a White House directing a stream of false information that is so relentless that it is increasingly hard to sort out truth from untruth. In a fascist system, it's not the lies that count but the muddying. When citizens can't tell real news from fake, they give up their demands for accountability bit by bit.<br/><br/>9 Dissent equals treason<br/><br/>Cast dissent as "treason" and criticism as "espionage'. Every closing society does this, just as it elaborates laws that increasingly criminalise certain kinds of speech and expand the definition of "spy" and "traitor". When Bill Keller, the publisher of the New York Times, ran the Lichtblau/Risen stories, Bush called the Times' leaking of classified information "disgraceful", while Republicans in Congress called for Keller to be charged with treason, and rightwing commentators and news outlets kept up the "treason" drumbeat. Some commentators, as Conason noted, reminded readers smugly that one penalty for violating the Espionage Act is execution.<br/><br/>Conason is right to note how serious a threat that attack represented. It is also important to recall that the 1938 Moscow show trial accused the editor of Izvestia, Nikolai Bukharin, of treason; Bukharin was, in fact, executed. And it is important to remind Americans that when the 1917 Espionage Act was last widely invoked, during the infamous 1919 Palmer Raids, leftist activists were arrested without warrants in sweeping roundups, kept in jail for up to five months, and "beaten, starved, suffocated, tortured and threatened with death", according to the historian Myra MacPherson. After that, dissent was muted in America for a decade.<br/><br/>In Stalin's Soviet Union, dissidents were "enemies of the people". National Socialists called those who supported Weimar democracy "November traitors".<br/><br/>And here is where the circle closes: most Americans do not realise that since September of last year - when Congress wrongly, foolishly, passed the Military Commissions Act of 2006 - the president has the power to call any US citizen an "enemy combatant". He has the power to define what "enemy combatant" means. The president can also delegate to anyone he chooses in the executive branch the right to define "enemy combatant" any way he or she wants and then seize Americans accordingly.<br/><br/>Even if you or I are American citizens, even if we turn out to be completely innocent of what he has accused us of doing, he has the power to have us seized as we are changing planes at Newark tomorrow, or have us taken with a knock on the door; ship you or me to a navy brig; and keep you or me in isolation, possibly for months, while awaiting trial. (Prolonged isolation, as psychiatrists know, triggers psychosis in otherwise mentally healthy prisoners. That is why Stalin's gulag had an isolation cell, like Guantánamo's, in every satellite prison. Camp 6, the newest, most brutal facility at Guantánamo, is all isolation cells.)<br/><br/>We US citizens will get a trial eventually - for now. But legal rights activists at the Center for Constitutional Rights say that the Bush administration is trying increasingly aggressively to find ways to get around giving even US citizens fair trials. "Enemy combatant" is a status offence - it is not even something you have to have done. "We have absolutely moved over into a preventive detention model - you look like you could do something bad, you might do something bad, so we're going to hold you," says a spokeswoman of the CCR.<br/><br/>Most Americans surely do not get this yet. No wonder: it is hard to believe, even though it is true. In every closing society, at a certain point there are some high-profile arrests - usually of opposition leaders, clergy and journalists. Then everything goes quiet. After those arrests, there are still newspapers, courts, TV and radio, and the facades of a civil society. There just isn't real dissent. There just isn't freedom. If you look at history, just before those arrests is where we are now.<br/><br/>10 Suspend the rule of law<br/><br/>The John Warner Defense Authorization Act of 2007 gave the president new powers over the national guard. This means that in a national emergency - which the president now has enhanced powers to declare - he can send Michigan's militia to enforce a state of emergency that he has declared in Oregon, over the objections of the state's governor and its citizens.<br/><br/>Even as Americans were focused on Britney Spears's meltdown and the question of who fathered Anna Nicole's baby, the New York Times editorialised about this shift: "A disturbing recent phenomenon in Washington is that laws that strike to the heart of American democracy have been passed in the dead of night ... Beyond actual insurrection, the president may now use military troops as a domestic police force in response to a natural disaster, a disease outbreak, terrorist attack or any 'other condition'."<br/><br/>Critics see this as a clear violation of the Posse Comitatus Act - which was meant to restrain the federal government from using the military for domestic law enforcement. The Democratic senator Patrick Leahy says the bill encourages a president to declare federal martial law. It also violates the very reason the founders set up our system of government as they did: having seen citizens bullied by a monarch's soldiers, the founders were terrified of exactly this kind of concentration of militias' power over American people in the hands of an oppressive executive or faction.<br/><br/>Of course, the United States is not vulnerable to the violent, total closing-down of the system that followed Mussolini's march on Rome or Hitler's roundup of political prisoners. Our democratic habits are too resilient, and our military and judiciary too independent, for any kind of scenario like that.<br/><br/>Rather, as other critics are noting, our experiment in democracy could be closed down by a process of erosion.<br/><br/>It is a mistake to think that early in a fascist shift you see the profile of barbed wire against the sky. In the early days, things look normal on the surface; peasants were celebrating harvest festivals in Calabria in 1922; people were shopping and going to the movies in Berlin in 1931. Early on, as WH Auden put it, the horror is always elsewhere - while someone is being tortured, children are skating, ships are sailing: "dogs go on with their doggy life ... How everything turns away/ Quite leisurely from the disaster."<br/><br/>As Americans turn away quite leisurely, keeping tuned to internet shopping and American Idol, the foundations of democracy are being fatally corroded. Something has changed profoundly that weakens us unprecedentedly: our democratic traditions, independent judiciary and free press do their work today in a context in which we are "at war" in a "long war" - a war without end, on a battlefield described as the globe, in a context that gives the president - without US citizens realising it yet - the power over US citizens of freedom or long solitary incarceration, on his say-so alone.<br/><br/>That means a hollowness has been expanding under the foundation of all these still- free-looking institutions - and this foundation can give way under certain kinds of pressure. To prevent such an outcome, we have to think about the "what ifs".<br/><br/>What if, in a year and a half, there is another attack - say, God forbid, a dirty bomb? The executive can declare a state of emergency. History shows that any leader, of any party, will be tempted to maintain emergency powers after the crisis has passed. With the gutting of traditional checks and balances, we are no less endangered by a President Hillary than by a President Giuliani - because any executive will be tempted to enforce his or her will through edict rather than the arduous, uncertain process of democratic negotiation and compromise.<br/><br/>What if the publisher of a major US newspaper were charged with treason or espionage, as a rightwing effort seemed to threaten Keller with last year? What if he or she got 10 years in jail? What would the newspapers look like the next day? Judging from history, they would not cease publishing; but they would suddenly be very polite.<br/><br/>Right now, only a handful of patriots are trying to hold back the tide of tyranny for the rest of us - staff at the Center for Constitutional Rights, who faced death threats for representing the detainees yet persisted all the way to the Supreme Court; activists at the American Civil Liberties Union; and prominent conservatives trying to roll back the corrosive new laws, under the banner of a new group called the American Freedom Agenda. This small, disparate collection of people needs everybody's help, including that of Europeans and others internationally who are willing to put pressure on the administration because they can see what a US unrestrained by real democracy at home can mean for the rest of the world.<br/><br/>We need to look at history and face the "what ifs". For if we keep going down this road, the "end of America" could come for each of us in a different way, at a different moment; each of us might have a different moment when we feel forced to look back and think: that is how it was before - and this is the way it is now.<br/><br/>"The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands ... is the definition of tyranny," wrote James Madison. We still have the choice to stop going down this road; we can stand our ground and fight for our nation, and take up the banner the founders asked us to carry.<br/><br/>From "The End of America: A Letter of Warning to a Young Patriot," Chelsea Green Publishing, Sept 2007<br/>************************************************************************************<br/><br/>UPDATE FROM NAOMI ABOUT ARMY DEPLOYMENT<br/><br/>Concerns about deployment of military on U.S. soil growing mainstream media silent<br/>Attention<br/><br/>Naomi Wolf<br/>Buzz Flash<br/>Tue, 21 Oct 2008 21:52 UTC<br/><br/>The following is the spin of military spokespeople in response to questions about the deployment of the First Brigade on US soil for the first time in over 200 years.<br/><br/>The Army Times initially reported that the First Brigade would handle domestic crowd control and subduing 'unruly individuals' and that they had 'lethal and nonlethal technologies' to do so. Then it issued a correction declaring that the 'nonlethal' package was not for domestic crowd control. Then after a hue and cry was raised by many citizens, Northern Command (NorthCom) offered a wholesale revision of their mission - and the mainstream media is eating it up. Here is an excerpt from the articled linked to in the previous sentence:<br/><br/>Despite conspiracy theories that this could be a first step toward martial law in the U.S., there won't be tanks on Main Street or active-duty troops putting down demonstrations. That is barred by federal law banning the military from being used on U.S. soil for domestic law enforcement.<br/><br/>    Instead, the soldiers of the 1st Brigade, 3rd Infantry Division at Fort Stewart, Georgia, have been training to back up civilian authorities in providing medical care and dealing with chemical, biological, high explosive or nuclear attack. <br/><br/>Not only does this entirely contradict the first Army Times reports, it also egregiously misrepresents to readers the status of US law in regards to this deployment. Yes, there are laws against military policing on US streets -- they are part of both the 1807 Insurrection Act and 1879's Posse Comitatus Act -- but the Defense Authorization Act of 2007 gutted them.<br/><br/>Congress restored some limitations on the President's ability to deploy troops to engage in military policing in 2008 -- but President Bush issued a signing statement declaring he did not feel bound by those limitations. He also can direct these troops -- and the National Guard, and Blackwater -- to engage in military policing of civilian populations simply by verbally and unilaterally declaring a national emergency of whatever kind he wishes.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, the US Army spokespeople are parsing their words and misleading us. And, whatever the stated mission is today, the fact remains that military up the chain of command report to the Commander in Chief -- not to Congress or to you and me, and not to the Governors as most of the National Guard do.<br/><br/>Why do I insist on raising an alarm about this deployment in spite of a great deal of opposition and criticism? (Though I am grateful, too, for a great deal of support.) I insist on raising an alarm because I am aware of world events and not just blinded by American recent history.<br/><br/>In Zimbabwe, a nominal democracy, President Mugabe sent troops to harass, arrest and even kill voters during a closely contested election. Mugabe's challenger called off his own supporters, telling them they should not risk being killed just in order to vote.<br/><br/>In Sierra Leone, a nation I visited shortly after elections, during a fragile democratic voting process troops and militias were both deployed by the contesting political parties to intimidate, beat and arrest voters. In Azerbaijan, troops were sent to intimidate the opposition during the elections -- and now there is no meaningful opposition. Don't trust me -- ask Human Rights Watch or Amnesty International. Troops are sent by leaders in power, even in weakening democracies, to intimidate voters, arrest and harass opposition leaders in tightly fought elections, all over the damn world.<br/><br/>And nothing, nothing, nothing prevents the First Brigade from being positioned around poll locations, intimidating or silencing or threatening or worse those who challenge their voting outcome or their having been purged from the rolls. This at a time when Prof. Mark Crispin Miller of NYU and Robert Kennedy and many others are documenting MILLIONS of voters being systematically purged from rolls -- overwhelmingly by Republican actions -- and early voting is already showing machines flipping selections from Democrat to Republican, and voters becoming upset.<br/><br/>I am having a surreal experience with the mainstream media, as well, as I try to raise questions. A source at The Philadelphia Inquirer says that nothing has appeared on the wires about the First Brigade -- so they can't cover it. A source at The New York Times says they are 'looking into it' -- but no coverage yet. "The Today Show" asked if I was a 'fear-monger' and 'paranoid' for raising alarms and reproduced NorthCom's soundbite intact about the First Brigade being here to help with communities affected by weapons of mass destruction -- but did no independent reporting of their own. I know from hearing from citizens across party lines that I am not the only American concerned about what information the Army may have about such threats to lead to this deployment now -- the first time since the Indian Wars that troops have been sent onto US soil.<br/><br/>If you would like to see how average Americans are responding to the news about the deployment of the First Brigade, check out some of the posts from readers on a military-oriented Web site that posted the recent Colorado Springs Gazette article on the subject:<br/><br/>    'Since 9/11 the Department of Homeland Security has spent billions to prepare civilian law enforcement, local fire departments and civilian agencies to deal with such [crises]. This smells of despicable mission creep for the Armed Forces. In the late 1980's, I participated in several exercises focused on "counter insurgency" operations that specifically dealt with demonstrators and civil unrest. Backing up law enforcement officials is a end run around Posse Comitatus and this should be exposed for what it is, unconstitutional.'<br/><br/>    'Just why is a combat brigade being tasked for these scenarios and not Chemical, Biological and Nuclear Warfare commands? Medical Commands? Construction Battalions?<br/><br/>    'This seems much too similar to the use of troops to put down the Bonus March of WW I veterans in which Army Troops fired on and killed veterans in DC protesting the government's failure to pay their promised [bonuses].'<br/><br/>    'This job can AND SHOULD be handled by National Guard troops (domestic issues).'<br/><br/>    'This smells...no, it stinks. Posse Comitatus is in place for very valid reasons. This looks like pre-positioning equipment in preparation for a fight.<br/><br/>    'The Defense Authorization Act of 2006 empowers the president to impose martial law in the event of a terrorist "incident," if he or other federal officials perceive a shortfall of "public order," or even in response to antiwar protests that get unruly as a result of government provocations.<br/><br/>    'The terms "incident" and "public order" are left wide open to interpretation under the Military Commissions Act...'<br/><br/>    'Just why is a combat brigade being tasked for these scenarios and not Chemical, Biological and Nuclear Warfare commands? Medical Commands?<br/><br/>    Construction Battalions?'<br/><br/>    'Back in the late seventies I was apart of a force that had a similar responsibility, except we were trained to handle "civil disturbance", thank god we were never needed. This is not the first time something like this has happened, the only difference, we were Arty. Every Batt. had to train so many troops, from Inf. to Medical. I enjoyed it, we all did because for the time we were apart of it, we were exempt from all duty. To have the troops on stand-by is not a problem, to deploy the troops to take over civil responsibilities is...'<br/><br/>    'This is quite disturbing. 4000 troops may not be enough to impose martial law on an entire country, but they could do it to a moderately sized city.'<br/><br/>    'There is already a group to do this its called the National Guard Civil Support team. They are all over the country and are more trained than these rotating people will ever be.'<br/><br/>    'As a former member of the 10th Civil Service Detachment/Weapons of Mass Destruction, I do feel a bit insulted. The unit is a full time National Guard unit that was in place for two years before the 9/11 attacks. We were trained to do exactly what this article says this combat brigade is being trained to do. Is this another example of the services not talking to each other, or are these commanders really that ignorant of the world around them?'<br/><br/>    'Reorganize FEMA and keep the Combat Military out of the picture. Our Combat troops are for Combat. SeaBees are Construction Battalions that have the expertise for disaster related occurrences. They understand support missions and are the best in the world when it comes to Can-Do.<br/><br/>    'If the Combat Military has to become involved, it means Martial Law is a scribble away with the pen.<br/><br/>    'If we actually need this Brigade, take it away from the Combat Army and assign it to the SeaBees.'<br/><br/>    'Did anyone catch the articles in the Army Times in September about this. The first article on 8 Sept. mentioned the Oct 1 deployment was to be prepared for any civil unrest during the election. The Next article I read on line around 26 Sept Changed 3 times in one day. From explaining about the extensive training they have received in IRAQ, the new non lethal weapons for use against (American Citizens) for civil unrest to a final article of they just here to help for emergencies.'<br/><br/>    'Despite conspiracy theories that this could be a first step toward martial law in the U.S., there won't be tanks on Main Street or active-duty troops putting down demonstrations. That is barred by federal law banning the military from being used on U.S. soil for domestic law enforcement.'<br/><br/>    'Did you read the Army Times article?<br/><br/>    'Have you read the Military Commissions Act 2006?<br/><br/>    'Have you read the Military Budget Act of 2007?<br/><br/>    'Have you read the Patriot act?...<br/><br/>    'What they are saying is that the local, state and federal police departments can't handle a crisis?'<br/><br/>    'If you're reading these posts, you've already read the words "mission creep," "end-run around Posse Comitatus" and "unconstitutional"'.<br/><br/>    'I joined the Navy to make sure NO GOVERNMENT WOULD NEVER DEPLOY TROOPS ON OUR SOIL. Why did you join? I believe every Governor should recall all National Guard troops to defend your states.... This detachment must stand down. This is an illegal order.' <br/><br/>So don't take the warning from me. Take it from many these patriots in military circles. <br/><br/><br/><img src="http://www.newciv.org/pic/nl/artpic/76/196/naomi.jpg" title=""  hspace="0" vspace="0" border="0"  alt="picture" /> <br />]]></content>

   <title>Boriska Boy from Mars - Indigo Child</title>

   <summary type="text">The little boy with gigantic lively eyes was about to tell a magnificent story about the Martian civilization, about megalithic cities, their spaceships and flights to various planets, about a wonderful country Lemuria, life of which he knew in details since he happened to descend there from Mars,...</summary>
   <content type="html"><![CDATA[<img src="http://www.newciv.org/pic/nl/artpic/76/191/Boriskasm.jpg" title="" align="right" hspace="20" vspace="10" border="0"  alt="picture" /> <img src="http://www.newciv.org/pic/nl/artpic/76/191/boriska_cover.jpg" title="" align="right" hspace="20" vspace="10" border="0"  alt="picture" /> Image with comment I extracted from a video I recently viewed, because I was so taken with this young Indigo boy, his loving presence and his wise words. I edited the article down a bit, you can visit websites at bottom to read more and to view video.<br/><br/>Edited Article from Gennady Belimov.<br/><br/>Sometimes, some children are born with quite fascinating talents, unusual abilities.<br/>I was told the story of an unusual boy named Boriska from members of an expedition to the anomaly zone located in the north of the Volgograd region, most commonly referred to as “Medvedetskaya gryada”…<br/><br/>“Can you imagine, while everyone was sitting around the campfire at night, some little boy (about 7 years of age) suddenly asked everyone’s attention. Turned out, he wanted to tell them all about life on Mars, about its inhabitants and their flights to earth,” shares one of the witnesses. Silence followed. It was incredible!<br/><br/>The little boy with gigantic lively eyes was about to tell a magnificent story about the Martian civilization, about megalithic cities, their spaceships and flights to various planets, about a wonderful country Lemuria, life of which he knew in details since he happened to descend there from Mars, had friends there…Logs were cracking, night's fog enveloped the area and the immense dark sky with myriads of brightly lit stars seemed to conceal some sort of a mystery. His story lasted for about an hour and a half. One guy was smart enough to tape the entire narration.<br/><br/>Many were stunned by the two distinctive factors. First of all, the boy possessed exceptionally profound knowledge. His intellect was obviously far from that of a typical 7-year-old. Not every professor is capable of narrating the entire history of Lemuria and Lemurians and its inhabitants in such details. You will be unable to find any mentioning of this country in school textbooks. Modern science has not yet proved existence of other civilizations.<br/><br/>Second of all, we were all amazed by the actual speech of this young boy. It was far from the kind kids his age usually use. His knowledge of specific terminology, details and facts from Mars' and Earth’s past fascinated everyone.<br/><br/>His birthday is January 11th, 1996. (Perhaps it will be helpful for astrologers). (Capricorn)<br/><br/>His parents seem to be wonderful people. Nadezhda, Boriska's mother, is a dermatologist in a public clinic. The boy’s father is a retired officer.<br/><br/>-After Boriska was born, I noticed he was able to hold his head in 15 days, recalls Nadezhda. His first word “baba” he uttered when he was 4 months old and very soon afterward started talking. At age 7, he constructed his first sentence, “I want a nail.” He said this particular phrase after noticing a nail stuck in the wall. Most notably, his intellectual abilities surpassed his physical ones.<br/><br/>-How did those abilities manifest themselves?<br/><br/>-When Boris was just one year old, I started giving him letters (based on the Nikitin’s system) and guess what, at 1,5 he was able to read large newspaper print. It didn’t take long for him to get acquainted with colors and their shades. He began to paint at 2. The boy possesses exceptional memory and an unbelievable ability to grasp new information. However, his parents soon noticed that their child had been acquiring information in his own unique way, from some place else…<br/><br/>-No one has ever taught him that, recalls Nadya. But sometimes, he would sit in a lotus position and start all these talks. He would talk about Mars, about planetary systems, distant civilizations…we couldn’t believe our own ears. How can a kid know all this? Cosmos, never-ending stories of other worlds and the immense skies, are like daily mantras for him since he was 2.<br/><br/>It was then that Boriska told us about his previous life on Mars, about the fact that the planet was in fact inhabited, but as a result of the most powerful and destructive catastrophe had lost its atmosphere and that nowadays all its inhabitants have to live in underground cities. Back then, he used to fly to earth quite often for trade and other research purposes. It seems that Boriska piloted his spaceship himself. This was during the times of the Lemurian civilizations. He had a Lemurian friend who had been killed right before his own eyes…<br/><br/>-A major catastrophe took place on earth. A gigantic continent was consumed by stormy waters. Then suddenly, a massive rock fell on a construction…by friend was there…, tells Boriska. I could not safe him. We are destined to meet some time in this life. The boy envisions the entire picture of the fall of Lemuria as though it happened yesterday. He grieves the death of his best friend as though it was his fault.<br/><br/>One day, he noticed a book in his mother’s bag entitled “Where do we come from?” by Ernst Muldashev. One should have seen the kind of happiness and fascination this discovery triggered in the little boy. He’s been flipping through pages for hours, looking at sketches of Lemurians, photos of Tibet. He then started talking about high intellect of the Lemurians…<br/><br/>-But Lemuria ceased to exist minimum 800 000 years ago…, I uttered in response to his statements. Lemurians were 9 meters tall! Is that so? How can you remember all this?<br/><br/>-I do remember, replied the boy. Later, he began recalling another book by Muldashev entitled “In Search of the City of Gods.” The book is mainly devoted to ancient tombs and pyramids. Boriska firmly stated that people will find knowledge under one of the pyramids (not the pyramid of Heops). It hasn’t been discovered yet. “Life will change once the Sphinx will be opened,” said he and added that the great Sphinx has an opening mechanism somewhere behind his ear (but he does not remember where exactly).<br/><br/>The boy also talks with great passion and enthusiasm about the Mayan civilization. According to him, we know very little about this great civilization and its people.<br/>Most interestingly, Boriska thinks that nowadays the time has finally come for the “special ones” to be born on earth. Planet’s rebirth is approaching. New knowledge will be in great demand, a different mentality of earthlings.<br/><br/>-How do you know about these gifted kids and why this is happening? Are you aware that they are called “indigo” kids?<br/><br/>Something is going to happen on earth; that is why these kids are of importance. They will be able to help people. The Poles will shift. The first major catastrophe with one of the continents will happen in 2009. Next one will take place in 2013; it will be even more devastating.<br/><br/>-What do you know about multiple dimensions? Do you know that one must fly not on straight trajectories, but maneuvering through the multi-dimensional space?<br/><br/>Boriska immediately rose to his feet and started to pour all the facts about UFOs. “We took off and landed on Earth almost momentarily!” The boy takes a chalk and begins drawing an oval object on a blackboard. “It consists of six layers,” he says. 25%--outer layer, made of durable metal, 30%--second layer made of something similar to rubber, the third layer comprises 30%--once again metal. The final 4% is composed of a special magnetic layer. “If we are to charge this magnetic layer with energy, those machines will be able to fly anywhere in the Universe.”<br/><br/>-Does Boriska have a special mission to fulfill? Is he aware of it?- I pose these questions to his parents and the boy himself. -He says he can guess,- says his mother. He says he knows something about the future of Earth. He says information will play the most significant role in the future…<br/><br/>-Boris, how do you know all this?<br/>-It is inside of me.<br/><br/>-Boris, tell us why do people get sick?<br/>-Sickness comes from people's inability to live properly and be happy… You must wait for you cosmic half. One should never get involve and mess up other peoples’ destinies. People should not suffer because of their past mistakes, but get in touch with what’s been predestined for them and try to reach those heights and move on to conquer their dreams. (These are the exact words he was using).<br/><br/>You have to be more sympathetic and warmhearted. In case someone strikes you, hug your enemy, apologize yourself and kneel before him. In case someone hates you, love him with all your love and devotion and ask for forgiveness. These are the rules of love and humbleness. Do you know why the Lemurians died? I am also partially at blame.<br/><br/>They did not wish to develop spiritually any more. They went astray from the predestined path thus destructing the overall wholeness of the planet. The Magic’s Path leads to dead end. Love is a True Magic!<br/><br/>-How do you know all this???<br/>-I know…Kailis…<br/>-What did you say?<br/>-I said “hello!” This is the language of my planet…<br/><br/>Articles and Video:<br/><br/><a href="http://www.projectcamelot.org/boriska.html" id="posts_0x1_000076-000191_outside_link" target="_blank">Project Camelot Articles and Video</a><br/><a href="http://english.pravda.ru/science/19/94/377/12257_Martian.html" id="posts_0x2_000076-000191_outside_link" target="_blank">Pravda Article</a><br/><br/>Note: Farout I found another article and link about Boriska, I thought I would add here...check it out:<br/><a href="http://english.pravda.ru/science/19/94/378/16387_Boriska.html" id="posts_0x3_000076-000191_outside_link" target="_blank">Another great article</a>]]></content>

   <summary type="text">I am proud to announce the re-release of Source Love, the revised edition. I am in the process currently of writing the companion handbook.   This is a very deep and yet simplistic book, one that supports an individual to open their mind, body and heart to the living Presence of Source Love. Sou...</summary>
   <content type="html"><![CDATA[<img src="http://www.newciv.org/pic/nl/artpic/76/188/SLcoversmall.jpg" title="" align="right" hspace="20" vspace="10" border="0"  alt="picture" /> <img src="http://www.newciv.org/pic/nl/artpic/76/188/Source-Love-DownloadNOW.jpg" title="" align="right" hspace="20" vspace="10" border="0"  alt="picture" /> A Personal Message from Alana Tobin:<br/><br/>During this time as humanity and Earth move through a process of profound transformation, many of us are opening to explore new ways of accessing and expressing ourselves, and new ways of relating and co-creating within creation. We as evolving beings who are being spiritually called to return home, to return to the knowing of the heart. <br/><br/>The Heart is the Telepathic Bridge to the Soul. <br/><br/>My heart tells me that long long ago we more fully utilised telepathy to communicate. Our heart is naturally telepathic, and directly connected with Source as well as with the whole of creation. The heart knows. Therefore the heart is unfettered by thoughts, beliefs and conditioned ways of perceiving and relating within our world. <br/>At various times humanity is introduced to new language patterns which present us with new opportunities to expand beyond our old ways of thinking, perceiving and relating to our world. Language is power-full!<br/><br/>In my view, when humanity started writing down and recording history, we became dependent upon mind to communicate concepts, and over time we lost touch with our innate ability to utilise telepathy in a more conscious and intentional manner. We also lost touch with our ability to navigate through life as fully conscious and heart centred people. So much so, that our mind and ego became the primary driver of our life. However, the mind has taken on board the challenge of limited beliefs, perceptions and judgments about the self and the world in which we live. Limited mindsets often have us reacting to life with fear and result in establishing communication barriers.<br/><br/>The Heart as Compass Aligns and Divines our Course.<br/><br/>At times throughout the writing of Source Love, the information and the language style challenged me as the receiver, to open my mind as well as my heart to reflect upon things in a much more expanded manner. Over time, the flow of telepathic information came to feel very natural and flowing, especially since by nature I am a poet and song writer and can appreciate having a play with words. Source and the Master Thoth, intentionally facilitated Max and myself, to step outside of the boundaries of limited thinking, and therefore established patterns of language. <br/><br/>The loving Source Presence and the Master Thoth enjoy bringing concepts home to the heart and will often do through rhyming patterns. Even as in days of old, within the Earth centred religions and throughout the many indigenous tribes, certain invocations and stories are created, and the lineage and the history of a people is shared and preserved through songs as well as thru poetry. Invocations and prayers were written down and then spoken aloud as a way of calling forth guidance, spiritual support and engaging the forces of creation to call in a specific reality. Many of these invocations rhymed because they were much more easily recalled and remembered.<br/><br/>Isn't that the journey we are all on, the remembering?<br/><br/>To you, the reader of Source Love, I invite you to take your time and to create for yourself a relaxed and nurturing environment as you read. Allow yourself to savour the wisdom as you would savour delicious food at a banquet. As you allow your mind to gently accept and integrate the knowing, surely your heart will resonate with the flowing... of Love and wisdom that is current as it is expressed through Source Love.<br/>Much 'Aroha', (Love) to you all,<br/><br/>Alana Tobin<br/><br/><br/>Read what others have to say about Source Love:<br/><br/>"Source Love is highly informative, it has the ability to expand peoples knowledge as well as challenge their current thinking, which in turn may lead to positive life style changes too. This book offers people a great opportunity to strengthen their connection to Source if they let it, and where the benefits of this can lead, well the individual options are limitless. I have felt more aware of and connected to Source as well as other nature energetic elements. This has helped me feel more interconnected with the Divine, nature, people and life in general. I have felt a stronger connection to the Source and this has been growing ever since reading the book."<br/>Melanie, Child Care Professional <br/>Auckland NZ, 2007<br/><br/>"In a world full of people seeking peace and spiritual connection, a book like Source Love can provide new insights and gentle blessings. Read this book slowly, savor its message and its beauty. I felt a surge of peace and love as I read it. You will too."<br/>Lynne Klippel <br/><br/>Author, publisher, host Web Sorority Talk Radio <br/>St. Peters MO, US, 2007<br/><br/>In addition, we provide a monthly newsletter which we call the Relationship Report, and provide information and resources to support the community moving through the current transition in as much ease and joy as possible.

And finally...  <br/><br/>* IMAGINE this device being available EVERYWHERE on the planet: from the apartments of NYC, to the desert communities in Africa, and even to your favorite camping destination... <br/><br/>"Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution." - Albert Einstein <br/><br/>But do not confuse these exciting possibilities with mere wishful thinking.  <br/><br/>These are very REAL technologies that exist RIGHT NOW!  <br/><br/>What needs to be done is to quickly develop these technologies into actual products you can buy at a local store, allowing you to unplug from high monthly bills and unsustainable, polluting utilities. <br/><br/>Many of you know I have been working together with scientists, inventors and leaders in society to advance a new, clean technology energy system for 17 years. My vision for The Orion Project is to provide free renewable energy for everyone.  <br/><br/>We're getting so close to a solution, and I need your help today. <br/><br/>So how can YOU be a part of this? <br/><br/><a href="http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=00191vLrRBWk28mFYWfCgaBIDzvD_WDZNJcXDrHfd7axu2hb7Akgf27B2fpZwQQdIcnNFrj6uc1VJ0BFI0MSgWYUNrQFkBr0c8xrqKWxnhj3TsjWv2Q5MsLRQFNco7uPJ4r38k6gKSfKpA2nVsUjxr14A==" id="posts_0x1_000076-000187_outside_link" target="_blank">DONATE NOW</a> to join us on this incredible endeavor!<br/><br/>SPREAD THE WORD by forwarding this message to 10 others! <br/>Copy and paste this link into your email to pass this message along and people can then take advantage of the live links here to read all about it right here in this blog. <b><a href="http://www.newciv.org/nl/newslog.php/_v76/__show_article/_a000076-000187.htm" id="posts_0x2_000076-000187_outside_nl" target="_blank" >Donate</a></b> <br/><br/>Your donation of $30 or more will make a huge difference. <br/>Referring 10 friends will help us reach our goal of $3 Million in a very short time. <br/><br/>We currently have 6 different technologies under development. Any of them is potentially "the one" that will be the breakthrough we need.  <br/><br/>Once we have rigorously verified the results, it's a straight sprint to optimization and production. But, this is currently being done on a shoestring budget! To make this occur in 12-18 months versus 12-18 years, we need to be able to bring these scientists together. And, we need to give them the necessary tools and assistance to develop multiple technologies that will provide free energy perpetually for all people. <br/><br/><b>:(</b> Imagine $10/gallon in less than 5 years. <br/><b>:(</b> Imagine having to forego heating in the winter or A/C in the summer. <br/><b>:(</b> Imagine families having to decide between eating and being able to drive miles away to work. <br/><b>:(</b> Imagine having more and more pollution in the water, in the air, in your food, everywhere... <br/><br/>It's not a pretty future... that is why we need you now to generously <a href="http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=00191vLrRBWk28mFYWfCgaBIDzvD_WDZNJcXDrHfd7axu2hb7Akgf27B2fpZwQQdIcnNFrj6uc1VJ0BFI0MSgWYUNrQFkBr0c8xrqKWxnhj3TsjWv2Q5MsLRQFNco7uPJ4r38k6gKSfKpA2nVsUjxr14A==" id="posts_0x3_000076-000187_outside_link" target="_blank">Donate NOW</a> as much as you can to develop these new technologies as quickly as humanly possible! <br/><br/>Cleaner than solar energy, but as free as the air you breath!

   <title>MESSAGE FROM KUTHUMI</title>
   <link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.newciv.org/nl/newslog.php/_v76/__show_article/_a000076-000186.htm" title="Full Article"/>
   <summary type="text">Hello All,  I felt that this message really conveys what we have been experiencing and perceiving to be true and being it is articulated so well...felt to pass it along.  Affirming Heaven On Earth!  Alana  Heartstory Website HeartMagic Blog </summary>
   <content type="html"><![CDATA[<img src="http://www.newciv.org/pic/nl/artpic/76/186/kuthumi.jpg" title="" align="right" hspace="20" vspace="10" border="0"  alt="picture" /> <img src="http://www.newciv.org/pic/nl/artpic/76/186/blav.jpg" title="" align="left" hspace="20" vspace="10" border="0"  alt="picture" /> <a href="http://www.crystalinks.com/kuthumi.html" id="posts_0x1_000076-000186_outside_link" target="_blank">An Interesting Reference</a> about Kuthumi<br/><br/>Also this image is quite fascinating: <br/>Madame Blavatsky, Kuthumi, El Morya, St. Germain (BL)<br/><br/>Madame Blavatsky was the Founder of the Theosophical Society. One day she was having her photo taken. As her photographer was developing the film, Ascended Masters Kuthumi, El Morya and St. Germain "showed up" on the film. They were not visible as the photograph was taken. This occurred in the late 1800s.<br/><br/>MESSAGE:<br/><br/>I am Kuthumi and I come forward upon the rays of Love and Wisdom to greet each of you at this time and to bring unto you the blessings of equilibrium, truth, faith and serenity.  Greetings beloved ones.<br/><br/>And it is with great joy and pleasure in our hearts that we may gather with each of you upon this day as we hold you firmly within the heart of Christ and securely upon the hands of God.<br/><br/>Beloved ones you are standing in the midst of yet another level of extraordinary change. The energies that you are magnetically drawing towards you are creating shifts on not only a grander scale but within the minutest fibres of your being. Everything within the microcosm and macrocosm are undergoing change. This is a critical time as we lead all of you into the light of your own power and in so doing assisting you in recognising who you truly are, the you that exists beyond the programming of belief systems that have been fuelled by insecure lower egos. I cannot not even begin to explain to you how extraordinary these changes are, everything that comes your way now is pushing the boundary, it is forcing you to step outside of the mould, to shatter every single belief system that has created a system which feeds inhibition, everything that sustains limitation and fear.<br/><br/>During the time of the 20th and the 21st of March the crone energy, whom we also refer to as The High Priestess, is wrapping her energy around planet earth. She is also enfolding each of you in her energy and it is her wisdom that nurtures and comforts you through this time of release, uprising and stepping beyond everything that represents the comfort zone of the structure that you have called life up until this point. The second ascension wave which anchors the full extent of it’s energy on the 21st of December 2008, and will continue to affect humanity until the 21st of December 2010, is coming forth with an energy that may be considered ruthless. There is nothing ruthless about it precious ones, what you are perceiving as ruthlessness is simply authenticity, truth, the real deal so to speak. You have asked that the universe show you the truth about God, the truth about yourself, life and everything that makes up the paradigm that you have become accustomed to as being the life you live in, therefore everything that is and represents the illusion is going to shatter.  The shattering moves the shutters away from your heart chakra and the moment the shutters are shattered over the heart chakra, all the chakras beneath it and above it undergo precisely the same process. All the minor chakras in your physical and energetic bodies undergo an incredible symphony of healing. This is part of the Easter ceremony of death and re-birth and isn’t it rather delightful that the Easter celebrations are over the time of the equinox?<br/><br/>These energies have been brought together for a very specific purpose. This is an opportunity to ensure that those who are linked to the winter (autumn) equinox begin understanding what the journey of introspection for this period entails. Those of you who are experiencing the equinox of the Northern Hemisphere you need to know what it is that you wish to bring to life. So both are vital. I have said before it doesn’t really matter if you are living in the Southern Hemisphere or in the Northern Hemisphere, you are still affected by both the spring and the winter (autumn) equinox because genetically you are connected to both hemispheres, even if it is on a subtle level you will experience those connections.<br/><br/>The crone also known as The High Priestess brings you the incredible power of mysticism, the mysteries of life that elude you, the mystery of self that you are ready to embrace. However, the mystery that she brings is the perceived mystery as a result of her wisdom.  Because of her level of wisdom she is a powerful observer therefore the gift she presents you with is the gift of The Wise Observer, the part of you that can choose in any given moment exactly how a situation will turn out. In many instances you will need to use your wisdom to be still, to step back and watch what is playing out around you and wait for the appropriate time to step in and drop the cat amongst the pigeons so to speak. Other times you will be the cat amongst the pigeons, but it is your wisdom that will require of you to play that role.<br/><br/>Wisdom is an aspect of unconditional love. A wise one knows exactly when to act and never reacts immaturely and by this I mean in both aspects of that word. The immatureness that I refer to is immaturity on a psychological level and on a spiritual level.  I have spoken before of emotional or psychological immaturity that not only impedes but, often temporarily halts a Lightworkers journey, and perhaps it is important that I mention this again for those of you who have not heard me say this before. It matters not how advanced anyone is on a spiritual level. They can be a great teacher, a guru with all the metaphysical, esoteric and spiritual knowledge of the world inside of them but if they are psychologically immature what they have intellectually means absolutely nothing.<br/><br/>Psychological emotional maturity is the central core point of maintaining balance. It is the core stabiliser of every soul choosing to walk the path of the spiritual warrior. Ignorant Lightworkers are more dangerous than the average ignorant man or woman on the street that knows nothing about metaphysics, esoterics, philosophy or anything else, so bear that in mind. The High Priestess invites you into her Sacred Chamber of Light where she tempts you to challenge the immature aspects of self. She tempts you to challenge all the areas of your life that you have chosen to be complacent about, turn a blind eye to, turn a deaf ear to and she is enticing you to stir the pot, to bring it to boil because in that place you find truth.<br/><br/>The wise master never nurtures an illusion. The wise master stands and observes and knows precisely when to act, the action being the catalyst to shatter the illusion. Please bear this in mind for all your days on earth. No true wise master or being of light or true love who walks the authentic path will ever, ever nurture an illusion, yours or anyone else’s.  When you feel instinctively inside of yourself something in your life is an illusion or you know you are in denial about something and your guides or whomever it is you are working with encourages you to remain in denial or nurture that illusion, then you know you are in trouble and best you fire them on the spot so to speak. You are on the pathway to becoming a fully empowered soul in human form therefore every illusion that exists must and will be shattered, you determine how long that process will take. Step away from situations and people that choose to nurture illusions and honour the truth. Be the wise master and observe if you must, otherwise walk your talk and know that when the time comes for those who nurture the illusion to experience something different and they make the choice to experience something different, their feet will find your path and will call to you and you will be in a position to present them with what they need and they will be in a position to accept your offer. Do not ever try and convert those who are not ready, you are fighting a losing battle, just be, live your truth, speak it, be it and everything around you will fall into place.<br/><br/>The rise in love reveals to you that every step you take is a revelation in itself and the death and rebirth process that you will shortly undergo is in fact not one there to debilitate you as I have said so many times before, all it is, is an opportunity to bring your attention to what needs your attention. I need to reiterate that it is vital that all of you do not lose yourself in petty irritations and I spoke about this in the message for the recent key date activations a few days ago.  Petty irritations are the egos, the lower egos way of distracting you from what is important therefore choose wisely what you will give your power to. When you get caught up in those petty irritations and petty squabbles you are giving your power to it and this time of the equinox, the energy that the crone combined with the energy of The High Priestess bring you is an energy that asks you to rise even higher in love, love for self, love for life.<br/><br/>During the energy activations of the 20th and the 21st of March there is another matrix that is being dismantled. It is a holographic projection that has influenced everybody and is influencing children at younger and younger ages. Some children as young as four years-old are already being severely influenced negatively by this holographic insert and this is related specifically to the illusion around the physical body, what it should look like, it’s size, it’s shape and so on and so forth. This has been one of the most debilitating holographic inserts or implants if we can call it that rather that humanity has had to deal with. Everything in the third dimension has brought your attention to focus on externals. The pattern is to seek confirmation outside of your self, to seek approval, love, comfort, nurturing and security outside of the self. Some years ago women were groomed to be the perfect wife in order to catch the perfect husband who could protect her, provide for her and make sure that she was safe. That is no longer the image that you need to uphold, however genetically it is still there.<br/><br/>At midnight on the 21st of March we begin pumping the new energy into the DNA codes of every man, woman and child on your planet. This is a planetary and collective DNA flush relating specifically to this hologram that has been created. It will take approximately twelve to sixteen weeks for the implant to completely dissolve and for you to flush out those imprints that lie within your DNA. Some of you have been feeling the affects of this implant because we have already been preparing the energy to remove it. Do you know that when you feel that you are ugly, unlovable, unattractive, fat and all the other labels you give yourselves, you are being distracted, you are being played with like a pawn? Because the worse you feel about the self the more dis-empowered you are, the less love you feel for yourself the stronger your fear is and you become a mechanism that nurtures that hologram, that matrix that I have spoken of.<br/><br/>The 21st of March is a time where portals to the dark worlds are closed and there are many. Every year we work with shutting down more and more. The more empowered each of you become the easier it is for us to shut these systems down but it is vital that all of you work with us, therefore I ask you the minute you feel unattractive, unlovable and downright disgusting remind yourself that you are being toyed with. The beauty of your soul, your heart and the light that you emanate is so much more powerful than the looks of a physical body. Yes you are all working towards reversing the aging process. How long that will take is debatable. In the meantime you must nurture that inner spirit, that inner quality of light and of beauty.<br/><br/>There is an exercise we want all of you to perform and this I suggest you do with everyone that you know. Every person you know needs to sincerely write down everything about you that is beautiful, nothing to do with your physical body, the you, that inner soul quality. What is it about you that attracts them, that keeps them in your space and you are to do the same with them, this is to be a joint project and those of you here please ask this channel to make this a worldwide project for everybody to do this. It is not just limited to the group we are working with right now.<br/><br/>The more you feed the light of self, not the ego, we are feeding the light of self, the stronger you become and that inner glow shines through. You have felt it in yourself, you have seen it in others - there is just something about them, that is what we are wanting you to connect with, to focus on. That is what will nurture the love amongst all of you.<br/><br/>The crone offers you the offering of not only wisdom, not only maturity, but the treasures of self discovered and owned. The crone in the form of The High Priestess knows exactly what she is capable of. She has pushed the boundaries, she has explored, she has ventured into realms where perhaps only fools will tread and in so doing she has learnt about herself.  Let me at this point say I am referring to a her because of The High Priestess and crone archetypes, but she exists within every man as much as she does every woman. Embracing her energy will accelerate the process of recognising the treasured qualities that you as yet have not owned. I assure you when you move beyond the surface and exteriors and you penetrate the depths of the true essence, the wisdom, the light, the power and the love that exists within every soul, transformations beyond your grandest imaginings will take place. Your energy will shift and change, the way you feel about yourself and life will change dramatically. The way you see yourself, the way others see you will also be very different and in that space by that I mean in that frame of mind. In that space of love you will be utilising the powerful “magic” in inverted commas of quantum mechanics.<br/><br/>There is a science to everything. The scientific fact is that energy exists everywhere. Energy can never cease to exist. It is transformed or transmuted but can never not exist, therefore using the science of the mind you are able to transform the way you use the science of energy within your body and within your external world, therefore during this time now celebrate the fact that the crone, The High Priestess, is prepared to stand before you and guide you into the realms of the authentic self, to those places where the treasures of you await you. So let us not delay any longer, it is time for you to meet your crone.<br/><br/>Close your eyes if you have not already and open your energy to breathe in the light and power of Infinite Source and as you exhale just let go of everything inside your body that may be causing you stress or concern. Every time you breathe in breathe in Infinite Source and breathe out everything that causes you stress and anxiety. Another deep breath in filling all the major and minor chakras in your body with the infinite energy of light and relax.<br/><br/>Imagine an exquisite wise old woman manifesting before you. You see The High Priestess qualities inside of her. Looking into her eyes you can see the wisdom, you see the all knowingness that exists deep within her and you are humbled by the power that pours out through her eyes and through her heart, a power that you in fact have been pining for, for many, many years. It is your divine right to realign with this energy consciously. You have earned the right to channel this power into every area of your life regardless of your current earth age.<br/><br/>Place the palms of both of your hands against the palms of the crone and feel her energy penetrating the chakras on the palms of your hands moving into your body and simply experience connecting with this part of you. The High Priestess understands the Sacred Language of Nature. She is one with Mother Earth and Father Sky. The Sacred Marriage of the Divine Feminine and Masculine have taken place within her and there is an inner core strength that few have experienced. It is that inner core strength that you are now ready to absorb into the DNA of your current body, and when you are ready take a deep breath in opening your energy consciously and allowing it to move into the cells and into the DNA of your body.<br/><br/>This is the power of you balanced in power - Spirit and science in perfect equilibrium. You know your truth, you have embraced many aspects of the authentic self and the world is seen very differently through the eyes of the crone.<br/><br/>While this is happening she becomes fluid and begins to become one with you. This fluid energy is able to flow through you unhindered connecting with every aspect of you that needs her light, her wisdom and her power, her maturity on a spiritual and emotional level and she teaches you how to be the wise observer. The energy of The High Priestess settles within your heart chakra. She will teach you the magic of love as expressed through the wise ones. She brings you a greater understanding of unconditional love and it is the combination of these two energies working through you and with you that will bring about great change shattering the illusions, tearing down the shutters, leaving you with only one thing and that is truth, the truth you have called for.<br/><br/>Continue to breathe in deeply and exhaling fully as these energies need some time to settle inside of you. Feel the presence of Mother Earth supporting you, the presence of Father Sky overlighting you, watching over you and their energies combined protecting and guiding you.<br/><br/>Mother Earth and Father sky work hand-in-hand. You are also being prepared for the energies of the coming of the Sacred God. This is the energy we will be working with next.  During this particular time of harnessing the wisdom of the crone you will be in a position to understand your own masculine energy. Right now you are seeing the power of your feminine self, the goddess, the temptress, the warrioress, all of those combined energies, the mother, the maiden, the nurturer, all of this is inside of you and you are discovering which of those aspects are your strengths, which of those aspects are in truth your truth and who you truly are. The moment you accept that and you love yourself as that, you will be able to see the power of your God-self, your masculine self in his truth.<br/><br/>Take a moment now to call in any other energies you require at this time to support your healing or your release, whatever it is you choose.<br/><br/>Know that during this specific time of the Easter your higher self will choose what you will die to and what you will be rebirthed into. This is being done for the purpose of overriding the lower ego.  All you need do is observe what you are going through at that time and you will know, surrender to it and allow it to be.<br/><br/>I, Kuthumi, now create a powerful golden shield of light around you. This shield begins projecting vibrations into your body that will support the dislodging of the implant that is connected to the hologram we have spoken of that feeds your fear of not being enough, of not being perfect, not being thin enough, rich enough, pretty enough, intelligent enough.  Enough is enough! No more of that! It is now time for authentic beauty to shine through and that is the totality of what the crone represents. In human physical terms she has lost the plumpness of youth yet she is still exquisite, therefore her exquisiteness has nothing to do with her physical appearance and everything to do with her inner beauty, this is why this exercise is so important.<br/><br/>Take another deep breath in exhaling fully as the energies now come to settle calmly inside of you. Give thanks to The High Priestess and the crone energy for merging with you. Acknowledge that you have consciously and willingly embraced that core stabilising power of the all wise self represented by the crone and High Priestess. Acknowledge that you have consciously and willingly chosen to become the wise observer and act only at the right moment whether it (you) be the cat amongst the pigeon or the one throwing the cat amongst the pigeons. That is part of the role you are playing at this time. You are the destroyers of the illusion rising in love. The reason why you are rising in love is because you have made the choice not ever to nurture an illusion ever again. Give thanks to yourself for choosing to serve in this manner. It is often considered not an easy position to be in however it is a mighty one to be in because you are the greatest catalysts of change - the shatterers of the old matrix.<br/><br/>More and more of you are being called to service now to step in to shatter illusions, to be the catalyst because of the second wave of ascension coming. The less illusion there is the greater chance of more and more souls moving through this gateway. The longer the illusion is maintained the more strenuous and strained the window of change will appear to feel like at the end of this coming year, therefore the less there is to wade through, the less non-sense there is, the easier it is to move through all the levels of your ascension, and every time you have a revelation, every time you have insight and every time you master an aspect of yourself, you ascend. Therefore ascension essentially is a moment-to-moment experience. The ascension wave we speak of is a mass collective process where there is mass insight, revelation, change and the choice to move into another realm or way of living life, each time becoming more simplistic.<br/><br/>I want you now to ground yourself in your body and imagine your feet actually sinking into Mother Earth’s body. Imagine her energy firmly connecting with the chakras of the soles of your feet and with the two of you connected in that way. Your processes are divinely supported and Father Sky, the overlighting energy, watches over both of you, holding both of you and bringing everything you need to ensure that illusion no longer distracts you.<br/><br/>Know that this energy will stay with you for the next seven days, during this time you are shifting and changing the feminine qualities inside of yourself, connecting on a more conscious and deeper level with your true feminine power and the aspects of femininity that are in truth the authentic you.  After that period your energy will begin preparing for the first stage of integrating the God energy, which takes place on the 4th of April.<br/><br/>April is a month that brings some of the most forceful energies of change in terms of your external reality. Let me explain this in detail so no one has a panic attack! March is the feminine quality and intensive as it is your attention is within. It is related to the power of the Goddesses, it is related to the Goddesses ability to nurture the inner child, so it is about discovering what is inside of you, what it is authentically, and then in April everything that has been inside of you emerges in your external reality. The masculine force that takes action and things materialise, structures are set in place and what you have been working towards from January up until the 4th of April suddenly takes root, and it may appear that your life is in upheaval but all that is happening is what you have been working with internally is now manifesting externally. Therefore look forward to some truly wonderful change in your life because now the energy is moving, you will have the sense of your life is moving and you can get going.<br/><br/>All of this is your choice otherwise you would not be listening to these words or for those who may read these words in the future you have brought this upon yourself because you are ready for it. You have earned this right to know who you truly are, what you are capable of, and the position you are in to make great change.<br/><br/>I, Kuthumi, stand amongst all of you and I stand with you alone. I can do this because we are all one and not separate. You are on a journey of taking full responsibility for yourself, owning every aspect of your truth and moving through, cutting through if you must every illusion that distracts you from the truth or tries to convince you that you are dependant on a source outside of you in the form of another human, another belief system, perception, attitude, projection, whatever it is. Listen to your own heart, listen to your instinct and you will always know the truth. Some will try and convince you that I, Kuthumi, and the other Masters are of the dark, if that is case then you know that already and then what are you doing here? If you have ever had an inkling, a strong feeling that we are dark I ask you again what are you doing here? Why are you not honouring your truth? If it is indeed the truth!<br/><br/>So beloved ones I will leave you with that one to ponder upon. There is only one very powerful truth that exists that everyone can know and will know, and that is that which exists inside of you, that core part of you, and the more you shed the old ways and focus on breaking out of every matrix in existence that nurtures the illusion then you are heading in the right direction.<br/><br/>May the light, the truth and the love of all that is, the highest and purest light, truth and love reveal itself to you and reveal all truth to you and if we are dark as others have said then that truth will be revealed to you too. Either way I love you! Peace and blessings be with you.<br/><br/>I am Kuthumi, Chohan of the Golden Ray of Love and Wisdom and I greet and bless you in love.  Adonai.<br/><br/><Link|www.http://thelightweaver.org><br/>]]></content>
