When I was growing up the population of the whole of Australia was 9million
And the majority lived in the eastern states
The suburbs in South Australia were basically small country towns
We moved from Northfield to Salisbury
Which still had horse troughs in the main street and there were still farms with return veranda houses
We didn’t lock our homes or our cars
In the hot weather we slept on the front lawn
Small businesses treated people as valued customers
The bus driver would drop children off at their front door if it were raining
I could phone home from a public phone box even if I had no money
I just asked the operator to put me through
Everyone was friendly and they helped each other
Salisbury is now the suburb from hell
When I first moved to Goolwa it was basically a country town





Everyone said “Hello” whether they knew you or not
And small businesses treated us like valued customers and friends
These days no one says hello unless they know you
People are rude and impatient and only a few small businesses have been able to afford to stay in business
The meaning behind my story is that the human plague isn’t just bad for the ecology and other life forms it is bad for humans too

A SHORT STORY ABOUT HEALING THE BLUE PLANET
I wrote and published this sci fi short story a few years ago (under the above title) when the human population was only 7.4 billion:
(1st published 4th April 2017)
It is now 8 billion.
Our cultural norms and the Protestant Ethic are causing the extinction of all life.
I wrote this as social satire and sympathetic magic
I realize my writing style doesn’t fit what people expect
My excuse –I majored in sociology not literature 😛
I wanted to put my idea that humans are not indigenous to the planet
A few lines from this short story:
“Most humans think that those who live in harmony with the environment are primitive and inferior. Actually they don’t think.
They just mindlessly conform to what those in power and their entertainment media tell them.
They are really stupid but consider themselves superior to all other life forms because they talk:
They think if something or someone doesn’t talk they don’t understand.
They thoughtlessly destroy everything. They call some creatures vermin, when humans are the vermin. They kill insects and destroy all the trees despite the fact that insects and trees are essential.
And everything literally goes down the drain polluting the oceans instead of nourishing other life.”
CREATIVE CONSCIOUSNESS MEDITATION
This is a visualization meditation
You create a sacred space which you use for healing
talking with friends
solving problems
creating anything that you wish
I recorded this guided meditation for a psychic development group that I was running, at participants request
I have put it in writing to bring down your guides for the first time as it isn’t included in the audio
And there is a mistake in the audio near end of meditation
The colours and numbers take your consciousness to alpha.
MEDITATION
Relax: centre: and protect yourself.
Breathe deeper and slower that you normally would.
Visualize the colour RED and know that you are becoming more relaxed.
Now visualize ORANGE
YELLOW
GREEN
BLUE: you are very relaxed and calm now.
INDIGO
VIOLET
You are now on a beach. Feel the sand between your toes. Smell the sea air. Hear the seagulls and the thunder of the waves. Stay here a while relaxing.
You see an hole in the cliff face and start walking toward this.
You enter and find yourself in a cave lit by phosphorescent fungi.
There are steps going down.
You descend these steps.
12;11;10;9;8;7;6;5;4;3;2;1
There is a door in front of you.
You open this door.
This is your sacred space:
You create this yourself.
The more that you use this meditation the more powerful it will become.
Have an elevator to the right at the back to bring people down for healing; problems solving; or just to talk to.
Always send them back up.
The first time you go to you sacred space you bring down a male & female guide.
They stay here. You do not send THEM back.
visualize the lift/elevator going up
then coming back down
as the door opens your female guide steps out
notice how she looks
ask her name
ask her to stand by you while you send the elevator back up
and then down again
as the door opens your male guide steps out
notice how he looks
ask his name
spend time talking with your guides
create your sacred space
Create a door to the back left to go on astral journeys.
A clock and calendar to change the date & time. — or these days a computer would do.
Anything that you feel that you require for healing
Anything you wish
I have a “natural” mineral pool because I like nature:
You could have a spar
Or a medical bed like they have in Star Trek 😛
Remember that your guides stay in this sacred space awaiting you.
When you are ready go back the way that you came.

AHIMSA
In our culture we are judged by the way we look
A cultural attitude that I am not immune too
I am self-conscious of being old; over weight and disabled
We think attractive people are intelligent and the good guys
This is mostly because of the movies where the hero or heroine is always very attractive
This is a dangerous concept because most sociopaths and psychopaths are attractive people
At least empaths and clairvoyant mediums can sense who people really are
This blog was motivated by a something that an 84 year old lady told me
The CEO of an in home help company was coming to see this older lady and she told the CEO that she wasn’t available after 2-45-pm (1445) and this CEO arrived at 3pm (1500)
My friend had a dental appointment
The attitude and manner of this CEO implied that my friend didn’t know what she was talking about
It is time for Elders Liberation!
In the 1970’s I was in Women’s liberation”.
Women had no rights and no status.
Ones status came from one’s husband.
All women were expected to be virgins and all men were expected to be promiscuous.
I never understood how that worked?!

Before the Industrial Revolution one’s status went up with one’s age.
Elders were respected!
Post-Industrial Revolution we see new things as good and old things as no good and this transfers to people.
My generation brought about changes for the better. Equality for the sexes
Equal rights for Afro -Americans; indigenous Americans and our indigenous Australians.
Acceptance of non-heterosexual preferences.
Rights for people with disabilities.
Great music:
And there is more.
We were “The Flower Power” generation yet I notice young people think we know nothing of sex.
Really!

Remember you will all be old one day unless you don’t live that long.
Fortunately, where I live most shop staff are respectful to the elderly because there is a large majority of retirees here.
Lately if someone patronises me I have started saying to “I am old not stupid!”
Namaste
I love the meaning of this word
The quote is from chopra.com
One of the most common translations of namasté is “The divine light in me bows to the divine light within you.”
AN HEALTHY BLUE PLANET
When I was in primary school we were asked to write an essay entitled “My wish”
I wrote that I wished that people cared more about the environment and other life forms than money.
In high school, at lunch break; in the days when women had no rights and no status; I said that there were double standards re women. My same sex peers shouted me down, saying things were meant to be this way!
At least this has changed.
I would like to think that eventually after I die, humans will become true communists and share with one another and other species. ( contrary to what you are lead to believe Karl Marx advocated everyone share = communism!) ( Russia has state capitalism not communism– I researched this for a sociology “paper” in 70’s)
Humans treat those that live in harmony with the planet /environment as inferior/primitive.
Some how striving to collect money; owning things; destroying the environment and killing non human life forms; makes one superior?
P.S. Just turned on idiot box and a scientist creating an embryo to save white rhinos – he said it would be preferable if humans to be more responsible –rather than science having to provide solutions – Asimov wrote a sci fi about this in n1972
I wrote this short story as social satire and sympathetic magic
The idea that we were genetically engineered is from Mayan writings plus my belief that humans are not indigenous to the planet
The concept of translocation was once a practice pre Roman Empire and apparently still is in some so called primitive cultures
He idea that humans were livestock for the gods is mine but am sure others have thought this
I chose Ophiuchus because I was I was drawn to this constellation
I chose Kunapipi because I respect and admire the wisdom and spirituality of indigenous Australians
I tried my best to practice ahimsa before I was aware of this word/concept
Impossible in a culture that believes only humans have a soul and only money matters
I fed the local birds for 25 years when i lived at Goolwa –not accptable now that I am in a retiement village
When i lived in Goolwa mindless automatons told me
“Do not to feed the birds -they are meant to find their own food”
It doesn’t occur to them that the human plague (of 8 Billion) has destroyed the homes and food sources of all other life – making so many extinct.
The larger birds (carnivores) kill the smaller birds for food because thanks to homo sapiens there are not enough mice worms or small reptiles for them to eat
A couple of years back in Australia they started culling the kookaburras to stop them killing the smaller birds
I feed the crows too –one neighbour complained about their noise
The other told me that she likes the Ibis but not the crow.
Crows like many other life forms are disliked because of cultural programming
The crow I fed, fed the baby before she? fed herself
I wasn’t able to take a photo because the baby flew away when I walk outside – came back when I went in.
Humans have this effect on me — have said I am anthrophobic for decades – don’t think it is an actual word)
It upsets me that people use poisons and insecticides
Kill snail s —-I was upset this morning by a post about killing snails
And label rats and mice vermin
And then there are kangaroos which most farmers consider vermin and kill them
In the 1970s I was a member of the original Greenpeace
We were labelled dangerous radicals
I was ridiculed and abused for being in Animal Liberation and a vegetarian
This has changed
These days I am abused for caring about insects moths and spiders
And told that insects are vermin and dangerous to my health
Humans are dangerous–
Considering all the positive changes in my life time I am optimistic that
the caring, intelligent people will prevail and stop all life from becoming extinct.
Enjoy your day

These babies were run over a couple of days after I took this photo.
Look at the date on this photo!
It was 2012 and I was at the computer reading something about 2012 being the end of the world and thinking what a load of crap! — When —
2027 appeared on my computer screen in huge numbers.
No idea why. Some sort of error I guess:
But part of me tries to put a meaning to this:
As in is 2027 the end of the world?
I would like to think it is when humans change and respect other life forms
AHIMSA
I re blogged Magic post yesterday partly as a self-reminder not to give power to resentments –as our thoughts create reality
A lady moved into this village toward the end of last year who is clinically depressed
And I have noticed that she has to endure stupid remarks from mindless automatons
telling her to get over it
cheer up
and all the other stupid remarks that I had to endure over the decades
I have had an anxiety disorder for as long as I can remember but was almost fifty when PTSD was diagnosed:
despite spending a fortune on psychiatrists and psychologists from the early 1980’s onward.
PTSD and PND were not acknowledged in my day
So I am just going to state the following without giving my power away and consider it closure never to be mentioned again
I am listing some of my traumas and I know that anyone who has suffered trauma doesn’t judge others
Being shut in the wood burning part of a wood stove when it was lit (aged four)
Being bashed regularly and for no reason because the person doing so felt like it
Being chased by someone wielding an axe
Coming to under anaesthetic unable to move or communicate because the body is “Frozen”
Coming to with the hospital bed perpendicular –severe chest pains – and told that they nearly “didn’t get me back”
Being in a two seater aircraft when the engines are cut and it was spinning downward
Being regularly punched in the face and having teeth knocked out
Being in a car accident (hit by a drunk driver) and not knowing who I was etc when I came to
Being frequently criticized by strangers for being horrible to my mother whose told lies so she would be the centre of attention
And there is more but here endeth the whinge
noun
1.
the power of apparently influencing events by using mysterious or supernatural forces.
“suddenly, as if by magic, the doors start to open”
******************
The first page of my Book of Shadows which was started in 1983

“Eight words the Wiccan Rede fulfil
An it HARM NONE
Do what thou will”
Despite training “would be witches” last century and earlier this century I stopped believing that we create our own reality.
I’m back to knowing that we do
Western culture has us believing we are powerless
Yet what we emotionally give power to manifests
Hence PLACEBOS and NOCEBOS
The Witches Pyramid “says” To know: to Dare: to Will and TO KEEP SILENT
I used to tell neophytes that it is intent that matters and emotion that empowers.
Most people would be aware of the idea of a self fulfilling prophecy:
“A self-fulfilling prophecy is a prediction that directly or indirectly causes itself to become true, by the very terms of the prophecy itself, due to positive feedback between belief and behaviour.” Wikipedia

The power of suggestion –When I am in too much pain to cope or my anxiety disorder kicks in I say to my self “RELAX” and “SMILE”.
Try saying smile to yourself and see what happens 😀
A few years ago a wise young lady suggested that I was an empath.
I initially thought “More New Age crap” but the concept fits me.
I have always been able to tell if people were lying and as a child thought that everyone could.
After typing the following I realize that I have gone off on a tangent. Oops!
There is so much available on magic and spells these days:
My favourite is Marion Weinstein’s “Positive Magic”

And this is a quote from Doreen Valiente’s “Natural Magic”:
“Believe in the possibility of what you intend to do, hold it strongly in your mind, and it will happen.”
A spell from my very old book of shadows.
When I collect the leaves from the Bay Laurel I thank both the tree and the leaves.

Bay Leaf Spell
Prepare a container with live coals or charcoal blocks:
Scatter crumbled bay leaves over them:
concentrate on the wish you are making:
Chant:
“Bay leaf burn fire
Draw to me my heart’s desire.”
Speak of your wish aloud:
And repeat the ritual thrice.
**************
Blessed be
and be kind to non- human life forms.

A SHORT STORY ABOUT HEALING THE BLUE PLANET
I wrote and published this sci fi short story a few years ago (under the above title) when the humanI was
only 7.4 billion:
(1st published 4th April 2017)
It is now more than 8 billion.
I wrote this short story as social satire and sympathetic magic
The idea that we were genetically engineered is from Mayan writings plus my belief that humans are not indigenous to the planet

In the following book I hope to help those who wish to develop their clairvoyant abilities.
In “The Clairvoyant Experiences Of A Sceptic” I told a few of my clairvoyant experiences.
Listening to others similar stories made me realize that
it is so much better if you can have these experiences first hand.
Kung fu tz (Confucius) say “Perseverance prospers”
So don’t give up – you will succeed
And use the recorded meditations in my blog
The clairvoyant Experiences of a Sceptic is not a literary masterpiece
but a true story. I majored in sociology not literature
I dont know the meaning of life:
nor understand the nature of reality:
I do know physical death is not the end.
And there are so many amazing stories omitted so as not to break client confidentiality.
The second part I wrote as therapy and had not intended to include.
It wasn’t included in the original l publication
( I started shaking when I tried to write about the abuse so it is badly written and a great deal omitted)
I tried my best to practice ahimsa before I was aware of this word/concept
Impossible in a culture that believes only humans have a soul and only money matters
I get upset when people kill insects
I stopped being friends with a man who stomped on an insect that was crawling past us when we were sitting outside.
Imagine the damage done by 8 billion humans needlessly killing insects
And also the damage done by this species poisoning “weeds”
I fed the local birds from when i first moved to Goowal (1998)
Mindless automatons told me
“Do not to feed the birds -they are meant to find their own food”
It doesn’t occur to them that the human plague (of more than 8 Billion) has destroyed the homes and food sources of all other life – making so many extinct.
I feed the crows too –one neighbour has complained about their noise
The other has told me that she likes the Ibis (that I feed) but not the crow.

I wasn’t able to take a photo because the baby flies away when I walk outside – comes back when I go in.
Humans have this effect on me — have said I am anthrophobic for decades – don’t think it is an actual word)
I have always been a misfit in a culture –
Where sociopaths are successful
Psychopaths glorified
And it is necessary to be a mindless automaton to fit in.
Considering all the positive changes in my life time I am optimistic that
the caring, intelligent people will prevail and stop all life from becoming extinct.
