ELDER’S LIBERATION

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?!

!cid_76219CA3-0AC6-4C6F-815D-B365B657BA0B

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!”

I decided to include pictures of older actors that I admire.

I only chose four and there are many more.

goldie hawn

michael caine

shiley naclaine                                            robert deniro

Seeing Goldie Hawn’s picture remined me –

In the 1980’s the mother of one of our residents told me that I looked like a young Goldie Hawn.

I never understood why she said this because Goldie and myself would have only been in our thirties then.   And Goldie is only a few years older than me.

 

 

 

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.”

ANZACS

for the fallen

We used to say “For The Fallen” at school assembly

Always brings tears 😦

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We will remember them.

On the morning of 25 April 1915, Allied forces landed on the Gallipoli peninsula in Ottoman Turkey. The British Army landed at Cape Helles. Troops of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) landed north of Gaba Tepe (Kabatepe) headland, on a beach later called ‘Anzac Cove’.

We used to say “For The Fallen” at school assembly

Always brings tears 😦

 I remember a teacher telling us that from a strategic view point the Aussies and New Zealanders were considered gun  fodder

WE WILL REMEMBER THEM

THANKING OUR BODY PLUS CHAKRA BALANCING

This is from  a meditation group that I attended in 1980 – the man running the group played the tape and I was able to get a copy

Unfortunately I no longer have this tape so cannot credit the lady who first recorded it

Me with my granddog 😛

Most chakra balancing that you will find online start at the base and work up

This one which I have been using since 1978 starts at the crown and works downward ending with “grounding”

 The sound is poor on this (don’t know why) 

so you will have to turn it up -sorry

“The Medium is the Massage” with apologies to Marshall McLuchan.

media massage

This blog isn’t about the book, although it was required reading when I was a teachers college in the nineteen seventies.

I actually chose it because I just couldn’t think of an appropriate title for this blog.

I have avoided reading or watching the news for decades and rarely have the television on.

Last century I would be abused for not “taking an interest in current affairs”.

The media doesn’t necessarily give us accurate information.

Reporting crime in detail and ad nauseum causes the increase of crime from both a socio psychological point of view and from a “magical” point of view.

Multinationals rule the world and the media only tells the masses what the “powers that be” want us to know.

An acquaintance of mine who was a Spiritualist minister was interviewed by one of our television stations in the 1970’s. They edited the interview to make her look stupid.

Early this century a friend’s son fell off the balcony of the local pub after drinking too much at “Schoolies”.  Because his mother considered it more important to get him into an ambulance than speaking to the media they published a story saying that this boy had tried to commit suicide.

And then there was Lindy Chamberlain whose life the media ruined.

I was abused for defending her;

The mindless masses said

”She doesn’t cry!”

“A dingo wouldn’t kill a baby”

The media blames cats for killing wildlife:

Real-estate development, mining and humans generally are responsible for making non human life extinct.

More than 8 billion humans make up 99 percent of the planets population and we are destroying the homes and food sources of all other creatures.

As humans believe that humans are the only species that matters, we will soon make all life extinct, including ourselves.

In the1990’s when the so called new age stuff became popular a television station ( at a wiccan conference) asked to interview me because I was an high priestess

A radio station left a message on my answering machine to interview me re clairvoyance

And a magazine wanted to interview me regarding clairvoyance

I refused all three

The media/movies also has the average mindless automaton believing that attractive people are intelligent and the good guys which is dangerous because psychopaths are often very attractive people

We are programmed to believe that money is all that matters

And objects that are status symbols are important

not yours4

Blessed be

and be kind to non human life forms.

Magic

From “on line” Dictionary –
magic

“/ˈmadʒɪk/Submit

noun

1.

the power of apparently influencing events by using mysterious or supernatural forces.

“suddenly, as if by magic, the doors start to open”

“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 now acknowledge that we do but that there are other variables influencing this:

not the least being the thoughts and words of other homo sapiens.

Plus we are programmed to believe we have no control over our lives and  that there are experts –

(Ex spurts = unknown drips under pressure)

that know better than  us

Hence 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.

We draw energy by chanting and dancing (the cone of power).

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

self fulfilling prophecy

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 😀

Another thing about magic is

 that it our subconscious

–we witches  call younger self

–that communicates with our higher self—

which I personally call my true self

and our subconscious takes everything literally

 any good psychologist or hypnotherapist will tell you this

Since I was seven I remember being able to sense my
“true self”

this is difficult to explain

it isn’t like transactional analysis — It doesn’t  feel like a “parent” or “adult”

but something wise and powerful

I am mentioning it because I know others feel this

I believe that our culture programmes us to feel powerless –

But won’t go off on a tangent about this

There is so much available on magic and spells these days:

My favourite is Marion Weinstein’s  “Positive Magic”

pos magic

And the following  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. I may seem weird to others but I don’t care.

bay 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.

I just wish I could wiggle my nose like Samantha  and the house would be clean and dishes washed  😛

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.”

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)

VEGAN

Seeing James Cromwell on “Sunrise” —morning television

motivated  me to re post this

He was saying how visiting an abattoirs in the mid 1970s  caused him to become vegan

I am so happy to know that so many humans care about other life forms

I have stopped watching television but if I  chromecast from same I see ads re eating parts of the corpses of animals that have been factory farmed and production line slaughtered  or creatures that have been boiled alive

(I also object to using insect spray – so don’t like these ads either)

I have been vegetarian since the 1970s and when I was younger used to cook meat for my family but this century I have refused to cook meat


I found this picture years ago but do not know who to give the credit to.

In South Australia in the 1970’s and 80’s vegetarians and vegans were not catered for.

There was a cafe on the corner of Hindmarsh Square and Rundle Street Adelaide, called “Carrots” :

one restaurant that catered for vegans

and  a Lebanese restaurant  that offered a vegetarian platter.

The only vegetarian food one could buy was by Sanitarium

which was, and am guessing still is, owned by the Seventh-day Adventist church.

(And very much appreciated — Thank you Seventh Day Adventists)

We were ridiculed and abused by those in pubs, restaurants and people generally.

I made my own burghers using lentils, vegetable and bread crumbs and at a surprise birthday party for my (now ex) husband all the carnivores were eating these:

not realizing they had no meat.

I didn’t insist my family were vegetarian

I would make a vegetarian dish to share

and also cook meat.

If I ate meat I would have night mares about being an animal in a slaughter house.

I object to factory farming and production line slaughter.

Of course the reason the setup is this way is there are way to many humans.

I didn’t want to eat meat as a child:

for refusing I received a bashing from  my mother:

she threatened to have me put in a mental institution

and served me the same meal for breakfast lunch and tea until I ate it.

I have allowed myself to eat meat on a few occasions over the years usually because I was anaemic

The night mares return plus my digestive system doesn’t handle meat.

In this day and age when there are so many vegans, I never expected to be ridiculed but it has happened on several occasions.

I complimented one woman on having soy milk in her coffee and she abused the hell out of me:
Said that she wasn’t vegan (which according to her is worse than leprosy ) she had soy milk because she liked it.

It is important to me that I am always honest so I must confess that sadly  I have only been  a part time vegan— but still vegetarian:

Hoping this time around I will stay vegan.

If I ate eggs I bought those produced locally as I have been to the farm where the chickens are and I would live where they live  😀

I cannot watch cooking shows:

Haven’t cooked meat for anyone since 1998

I am horrified that people think eating creature that is boiled alive is a treat.

A friend asked me why vegans avoid dairy :

I explained that the cows are kept continually pregnant:

the calves go to slaughter and their mothers know.

In my opinion the drug companies are worse than the meat industry.

In 1982 the husband of one of my staff asked me to report that suckie calves were left to die of dehydration & starvation.

I was told by someone who bought stock that

all new borns are just left to die that way.

In 1982 I reported what was told to me to the RSPCA who called me a liar and a trouble maker.

I put something inwriting but it was ignored.

Animal Liberation told me to write to my politician.

Nothing.

Years later an acquaintance who had worked in the abattoirs told me that the drug companies ask for this.

And my podiatrist  (an animal activist) told me that the drug companies collect hormones from this type of death.

People just don’t want to know.

SAW THIS ON FACEBOOK — THIS IS ALSO MY OPINION

On the 4th April 2017 I published my sci fi short story as an eBook – I later made it a paperback and have published 2 more books

All I have received in 6 years is $27

A friend who put his music with Amazon  never got much in royalties and said they come up with costs and expenses not listed

They have exclusive rights to my books so I cannot remove same

I didn’t write them for the money

The sci fi is social satire

And the clairvoyance is to tell some of my experiences

But these days when I am struggling to buy groceries and not well enough to do readings  it would be nice to have a little extra money

“Let them eat cake”

Seeing James Cromwell on “Sunrise” —morning television

motivated  me to re post this

He was saying how visiting an abattoirs in the mid 1970s  caused him to become vegan

think i will repost my vegan post too

Wiser and well known people have  advocated for other life forms and the ecology long before me.

Peter Singer

Albert Schweitzer

John Newton  (wrote Amazing Grace)

Irving Stowe and Dorothy Stowe, (founders of GreenPeace)

Casey Affleck

Alec Baldwin

James Cromwell

David Attenborough

And many many more

And there were movies

“The Day the Earth Stood Still” (re make)

And “Avatar’

“Let them eat cake”

a famous quote attributed to Marie-Antoinette, the queen of France during the French Revolution. As the story goes, it was the queen’s response upon being told that her starving peasant subjects had no bread.

Most people have this attitude and response to starving wild life.

e.g.                                                                                                                  

I am often told

“don’t feed the birds they have to find their own food”

People don’t realize that humans in western culture have destroyed the homes and food sources of all other life forms.

Our norms and attitudes are causing the extinction of all life.

In our culture we don’t share with one another; never mind other life forms.

Karl Marx who advocated sharing – communism – is seen as evil.

And please know China and other so called communist countries have “state capitalism” not communism.

(I wrote a paper on Karl Marx when I majored in sociology)

Some one told me not to go on about the ecology because there is nothing that they can do:

but they and you can:

Do what you can in the microcosm

Feed the birds even if your neighbours abuse you because they don’t want the noise and the poop.

Don’t chop down trees

Trees don’t light fires

humans do

Makes more sense to get rid of arsonists rather than trees

Google eco friendly homes and gardens for ideas:

Don’t use poisons:

Try your best to adhere to ahimsa

Don’t kill insects and mice etc

EASTER WAS A PAGAN FERTILITY FESTIVAL

The Church of Rome adopted all the pagan festivals because the people wouldn’t give them up.

Christmas was midwinter: Yule:

Easter, spring equinox. A sabbat dedicated to the goddess Eostar.

“Eight words the Wiccan Rede fulfil

The concept that witches were evil began at the inquisition when the Church of Rome was trying to get rid of  the Old Religion and the women herbalists.

witch hunts

The Satanists, who we are sometimes equated with, got their ideas from Malleus Maleficarum, which is about  how to torture people to get them to say they are witches and not about witchcraft as it says if you Google!

Our rituals are similar to American Indian rituals –at least the one I am aware of, which is Sioux tradition.

I will not kill anything — Not spiders: mice: insects: trees –

I believe everything that exists has consciousness and deserves respect.

I have cried on many occasions because I haven’t been able to save a bird: animal or  reptile that had been  hit by a car – at least I move them off the road so that they are not continuously run over.

I get upset when moths throw themselves at the window to get to the light.

This doesn’t mean there are not people out there calling themselves witches and killing animals.

Male witches are called witches,

so if someone claims to be a warlock be suspicious.

RE INCARNATION

Watch the second video –fast forward one hour and nine minutes to Gwen McDonald –this is the most amazing

As you can see this is an old book of mine:

Australian psychologist and hypnotherapist, Peter Ramster created a television documentary in 1981 He also wrote a book that was published in 1980 Called “The Truth About Reincarnation” where he regresses subjects to past lives for which  he is able to check details.

The following video is an hour and three quarters

If you don’t want to watch it all fast forward an hour and nine minutes to Gwen McDonald –this is the most amazing

I have experienced many past life regressions am only going to share the first one and a funny one:

The first past life regression that I experienced was at a psychic group at Kent Town SA. (I think it was 1980)

Instead of a guided meditation the man running this group took us back to our very last life.

Only four of us achieved this and everyone else complained that it was supposed to be a meditation.

I wrote mine down in an exercise book as soon as I got home.  I kept this book for years but it disappeared last century when my 2nd husband moved out. Pity!

I still remember much of the information from this regression.

I was an American Marine in Borneo either during or just after the Second World War. At the time I had no idea the war went to Borneo. I checked all the information that I could in the library. I also didn’t like the “Yanks” back then so had no desire to be one. I have since visited the USA and know how friendly and welcoming Americans are.

I died when the b12 I was in (I was the gunnner; not the pilot) was shot down.

(This sensation of spinning downwards to my death was brought back to me in my present life when a pilot friend took me up in a Victor (two seater aeroplane)  cut the motors and spun the plane downwards without warning me. -He was trying to show off.)

 I was 19; male and the middle child of three boys. My name was Harold. I saw my home but not my parents. 

As I was born this life in February 1949 I would have come straight back after I died. But knowing that I do not understand the nature of reality and accepting that linear time is an illusion anything is possible.

A friend of mine took me to a past life.

I was walking toward a well in a cobblestone courtyard.

As soon as I appeared everyone else scattered.

Immediately I came back to waking reality and couldn’t stop laughing.

I said “I don’t know who I was but they didn’t like me.” (I may have been a leper?)

FOLLOWING IS A PAST LIFE REGRESSION/MEDITATION

If you don’t “see” just trust the concepts that come into your head

I have used this “meditation” with my Wiccan groups

and my psychic development groups

I believe the regression is possible because linear time is an illusion

I asked “clairvoyantly” about “the meaning of life” which strangely enough isn’t 42 (Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy)

The answer I got was more a concept than words but translated:

I was asked if I could conceptualize NO LINEAR TIME and when I said “No” I was told that “they” couldn’t explain.

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.”

I took this on Kangaroo Island last century

 In the following book I hope to help those who wish to develop their clairvoyant abilities.

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.”
