Find Out About the Origin of Halloween - The Night We Have Loads of Fun

By Doug O Taylor 

When it comes to celebrating holidays with imaginative costumes, nothing can surpass Halloween. As the day approaches every year on October 31, the excitement around Halloween tends to mount. It is the celebration of the things associated with the dead and the supernatural elements related to it such as ghosts, witches and other spiritual beings. However, the celebration of the haunted night is not without a meaning or justification and has roots of its own. The history of Halloween shows it to be a coinciding festivity of pagan rituals and Christian faith.

Origin of Halloween: With changing times, the celebrations and its meanings have changed. Now, Halloween is a secular community based holiday where kids get to do a lot of fun and tend to begin preparations from weeks ahead. Yet the roots of the festivity remain unforgotten. It dates back to over 2000 years ago when Celts had dominance. They celebrated their New Year's festival "Samhain" on October 31st every year. It was to celebrate and mark the end of summer season. They also believed that it was the day when the dead arise from their sleep and wander the land to possess the earthly souls. Thus to stay protected and secure from getting involved in any paranormal activity, the Celts dressed up as monsters, ghosts, witches and other supernatural elements they could think of. They put out all lights in their homes and went out as mischief makers. The basic idea was to stay protected from being haunted or possessed. The Celtic priests would also build bonfires and offer sacrifices. These rituals have faded leaving behind the carving of pumpkin and the costumes only for today's generation of Halloween traditions.

Honoring the supernatural: With the pagan rituals having toned down, the day found its new roots in America through Christianity when Irish celebrations of Halloween or the Hallow 'en (evening of the Hallow), celebrated on November 1st gained popularity. The word 'Hallow' in old English means 'saint'. Thus it is also known as All Saint's Day. It is a day when all the Christian saints are honored. While the next day is marked as All Soul's Day which honors all Christians who no longer live and were not saints. On All Hallows Eve or on Halloween, the Irish beggars went asking for money or food. Those who refused to give were threatened to be destroyed by the evil spirits and paranormal entities. This ritual of asking has continued invariably as today children wearing costumes carry lighted ornaments and go to people's houses to collect treats. The whole concept of trick or treat thing, telling haunted stories  makes it more fun and of course no one dares to forget to keep themselves stocked with soul-cakes, currant buns, chocolates, candies, pastries and goodies when they come knocking on the doors.

Thus it is not only coming up with new ideas for desserts, costumes and themes for Halloween party, it is the essence of respecting the dead as well as celebrating life that should be inculcated. We wish everyone a happy Halloween all year long!

The Love Frequency - Law of Attraction

By Luke Russell Broad 

Why is it that news channels report all of the bad in the world but very little of the good? Why is it that newspapers compete for the most dramatic headline? Why is it that television programmes and films mostly involve murder, revenge, violence and depression? Why is it that soap operas increase their ratings by showing more dramatic storylines? Why is it that the mainstream media and television programming shows nothing that suggests you are a free, miraculous being of unconditional love that is connected with all that is? Why is it that the mainstream media and television programming does not highlight all of the healings that take place and all of the examples of love that people show one another in various ways? And why is it that the mainstream media and television programming does not acknowledge that we are powerful creators?

The mainstream media and television programming seem to only disempower people and it seems as though the masses are drawn to disempowerment. In other words, the masses are drawn to drama, depression, violence and chaos. This shows the general mindset of the masses. They are drawn to drama, depression, violence and chaos only because they have a mental programme that causes them to perceive reality in the way that they do. Their existing perception of reality perpetuates their existing mental programming and their mental programming perpetuates their perception of reality. This is the cycle. What are you drawn to? What is your perception of reality? Do you continuously see examples of unconditional love and unity, or of separateness and limitation? Whilst examples of separateness and limitation exist, there are far more examples of love and unity. But what you see more of depends on your mental programming.

In order to see something different, either in our lives or in the world, we must first believe in something different. This is where many people go wrong. The average person will say, "Show me something different and then I will believe in it" and so they do not see anything different because their mental programming has not changed. When we truly believe in something different, however, then we have changed our mental programming and we will see something different.

What this means is that in order to see more unconditional love, forgiveness, harmony, peace and unity in our lives and in the world, we must truly believe in unconditional love, forgiveness, harmony, peace and unity. And saying that you believe in something does not mean that you actually believe it. True belief is not expressed through words, it is expressed through a frequency. All emotion is expressed through a frequency and we all unconsciously pick up on one another's frequencies.

Studies in recent years have shown that the heart emits a frequency - a three hundred and sixty degree electromagnetic pulse. When we feel love, the heart's electromagnetic frequency is high. When we feel anger, the heart's electromagnetic frequency is low. Belief and unconditional love is a frequency in which we must learn to operate. When we operate in the frequency of unconditional love and belief, we will see things that match that frequency - we will see more examples of unconditional love and more reasons to believe.

The more people that operate within the frequency of unconditional love, belief and harmony, the more examples there will be of unconditional love and harmony and the more reasons there will be to believe. Imagine millions and millions of people worldwide operating in the frequency of unconditional love, belief and harmony. Imagine how much will change in the world. We can offer physical help to people in whatever way we can, but on a larger scale, we can help people and positively influence the world from wherever we are - we are that powerful and it's time that we start waking up to our true power. In reality, we can positively influence the world and help people simply by operating in a high frequency of unconditional love, belief and harmony and encouraging others to do the same.

So, the question to ask yourself is, "Am I ready to stop accepting the low frequency (the low consciousness) reality shown by the mainstream media and television programming and begin operating in a higher frequency (a higher consciousness) by believing in something different?" If you believe you are ready, then switch off your television set, stop reading the newspapers and start changing your belief system.

The Quantum Physics of Relationships

By  Ali Bierman 



One person can save a failing romantic relationship. No couples therapy necessary.

Huh?

Quantum physics tells us that everything is energy. Thoughts are energy. Emotions are energy in motion. Put those two concepts together and you cannot refute the fact that your thoughts lead to your emotions that lead to your unique world, the reality each individual creates.

You know the question, "Is the glass half full or half empty?" Your response reveals how you run your head.

Do you see the good side of life or the bad side?

Does your focus hone in on what serves you and brings you happiness and health? Or do you misuse your imagination thinking about painful past events and create pictures of even more frightening and disappointing circumstances in your future?

Whichever you choose to see is the one you will live. Guaranteed.

Ah yes, quantum physics further explains that the observer influences the result. The mood you experience when you make your observation totally determines the outcome.

Think of it this way...

In a scientific experiment the scientist poses a hypothesis, predicting a specific outcome of the experiment. Then he observes what happens, interprets his data, and writes up the results he observed.

Two things to know:

1. The scientist sees what he expects and accepts to see and literally is blind to other outcomes--not intentionally. just how the mind works unless a conscious effort is made to include ALL possible outcomes, including those never anticipated and seemingly unrelated to the issue under scrutiny.

2. The scientist, by having a desired expectation, influences the result, increasing the chances of verifying his hypothesis.

How do you apply that knowledge in your own life?

Did you ever know someone diagnosed with a tumor (it showed up in a number of tests) who, on the way to the surgical procedure envisioned herself as all healed and then, when final tests were done just before the surgery (to verify where to operates) all tests showed negative? No more tumor. Remarkably the tumor previously revealed on earlier tests also disappeared.

Your mood influences what you will read in the unopened letter, in the status of the gift you sent across the ocean, on the phone call you've been waiting for, in the diagnosis from the doctor, etc.

In fact, scientific tests showed that item A, placed in a package and mailed overseas, somehow mutated during shipment into an item B matching the item B at the receiving end which was originally an item A BEFORE the package shipped.

That research is not new. Many similar experiments verify what quantum physicists verified over the years. Thoughts, as conscious or subconscious intentions, are powerful energies that affect outcomes for people, objects, and events.

Now you know why you do not need couples therapy to move a failing relationship to an amazing one of partnership. Only one person does the work and influences the other just using her own energy to heal herself and send love both to him and to the relationship as a separate entity.

And when you are ready to create the proven winning habits that move you forward on your spiritual journey

The Castle Ghosts of Wales - Real Life Welsh Hauntings

By Ben H Wright 

There are many castles in Wales that have acquired a reputation for being haunted. These castles were often the settings for terrible crimes and immense suffering, their long and troubled histories inevitably providing fertile ground for paranormal phenomena. The following looks at some of the hauntings associated with these castles, including Margam Castle, Powis Castle and Gwydir Castle.

An entry in the diary of John Hay Williams from 1829 relates how a human skeleton was once discovered during renovation work at Bodelwyddan Castle in North Wales. No one could ascertain the identity of this skeleton so it was re-interred into the walls of the castle, where it remains to this day. The unsettling presence of this walled-up skeleton has led to it becoming connected with two phantom females occasionally seen at the castle, one called the Blue Lady and the other the Victorian Lady. Among the other ghosts at Bodelwyddan is the 'Cellar Man', a malevolent spectre believed to reside in the castle's labyrinthine basement. Apparently this ghost is of a somewhat misogynistic bent, being in the habit of regularly terrorizing the female staff at Bodelwyddan Castle.

Margam Castle near Port Talbot in South Wales has a reputation for all manner of unearthly happenings. This distinctly Gothic mansion is situated in Margam Country Park, sharing land with the ruins of a 12th century abbey, itself reputedly frequented by ghostly Cistercian monks. The house itself is rumoured to be haunted by the vengeful spectre of a former gamekeeper who was murdered on the grounds by a poacher in 1898. His ghost has been witnessed ascending the central staircase. The spirit of Emily Charlotte Talbot, a former owner of Margam Castle, is also said to still walk the grand halls and eerie corridors of this creepy Victorian mansion.

A powerful family in Welsh history was the Wynn dynasty whose ancestral home was Gwydir Castle, a fortified Tudor manor house in North Wales. A Wynn baronet is said to have made a startling deathbed confession where he admitted to having murdered a young woman in his youth, burying her remains behind a wall at Gwydir Castle. This unnerving revelation relates to accounts of a Grey Lady who has been occasionally glimpsed at the castle since the 19th century, one of a number of phantoms said to haunt the castle. Witnesses describe encountering this apparition within a room known as the 'Ghost Room' as well as an adjoining corridor. They say that she is accompanied by a severe drop in temperature and the most unholy stench, like that of a decomposing corpse.

There have been numerous reports of supernatural activity at Powis Castle over the years, although arguably the most intriguing story is that of an interactive ghost. In 1780, an itinerant spinner was staying at this 13th century stronghold. The woman had been lodged in a large room on the ground floor and soon after she had finished admiring its handsome furnishings, a well-dressed man suddenly entered her chamber. He walked around a while before exiting the way he arrived, leaving the woman somewhat confused as to his identity - the family being currently away from the castle. When the mysterious stranger reappeared the woman became convinced he was an apparition. On the third time he entered she apparently mustered the courage and actually spoke to the spirit, claiming he answered back. Other hauntings at Powis Castle include a sinister woman in black and the dulcet tones of an unseen piano.

Regarded as one of the most haunted buildings in Britain, the huge Victorian-Gothic mansion, Craig-y-Nos, is allegedly home to numerous ghosts. The main part of the castle was built in the early 1840s for the Powell family who were plagued with illness and tragic accidents. In 1878 Craig-y-Nos was purchased by the acclaimed soprano Adelina Patti whose ghost has apparently been witnessed throughout the whole property. The castle is also supposedly haunted by the opera singer's second husband, as well as the Italian composer Gioachino Rossini. Patti died in 1919 and the property became a sanatorium for tuberculosis sufferers a few years later. Some of the spectres at Craig-y-Nos are thought to be the ghosts of former patients who perished at the castle.

Quantum Physics - How Manifestation Manifests!

By Amit A Desai 

The whole universe is brought into being by the participation or observation of those who participate and observe. Wealth is brought into existence by you and us looking at it. Your certainty of it, faith, and your attention of it, creates it.

In reality, it already exists as a probability wave. But by giving it sufficient attention with faith, certainty & expectation, you now cause it to be a definite thing, an event in a point in space and time. It goes even deeper than that. In fact, it already exists as an event, but your perception of time makes it look 'away' and 'separate'.

Einstein was one of the few physicists who refused to believe that all this happened randomly or by chance. He said that he refused to believe that 'God plays dice'.

Know this: The quantum world is the real world. The world you see with your eyes is simply an imperfect perception of a group of quantum activity. Yet the quantum activity is caused by you - you are First Cause. Never think that what you see with your eyes is First Cause - it is just an effect.

All this has now been proven by Quantum Physics but as a matter of fact several thousand years ago, various spiritual teachers told us the same thing that we came from light. You are light. In fact, your body is over 99% 'space' were you to examine it under a microscope. The rest of it, the solid part, is just a collection of the exact same things that light is made of, the same sub-atomic particles.

Actually, even the 'space' that we see all around us is full of energy. Your mind, from your spirit, keeps your body 'together' as a 'solid' unit. And your mind does the same thing with other things around you. All matter is put together using information from your mind and the minds of those around you and the rest of the universe.

The sub-atomic world is not static at all. It is an amazing dance of never-ending creation and destruction. Particles destroy themselves and, in that very destruction, give rise to new ones. Most sub-atomic particles have an unimaginable short life (generally only billionths of a second). The whole universe is forever being re-created anew.

You can imagine it all being wiped clean and restored, just a little differently, every trillionth of a second or so. Also, when a particle is created, it is instantly traveling at the speed of light! Quite literally, we did come from light, as many creation stories go. One more thing to know is that, particles can move forwards and backwards in time.

There is no such a thing as empty space. All 'space' is filled with energy. The energy that makes you up, also makes up everything else. It is just that your five senses of sight, sound, touch, taste and smell do not detect the many varied other types of forms that exist in the universe. In other words, you can only detect forms that are identifiable to the five senses you possess (unless you have developed other senses as well - We have already discussed about this in our previous article).

What it means is that that these humanly detectable forms, physical forms, are not the only things that exist in this universe. Think of the universe as a hologram. Anyway, the whole point of this is to know that you are part of one huge ocean of energy and, literally, nothing separates you from anything else. The only 'separation' you see is an illusion caused by the limited five senses you have.

Quite literally, we are all One. We are one large organic whole whose parts are changing all the time. Each part can look at the other parts and each part has its own level of consciousness and awareness. Yet, the whole acts exactly as a whole, while the parts act as a part of the whole, with individual and whole properties.

The physical universe of matter represents only a tiny fraction of the universe of energy and vibration in its entirety. All energy is influenced by thought and structures itself into taking form as an observable effect.

Everything that has ever happened, happens and will happen in the entire Universe, first originated as a thought originating from the Mind of a Being. This thought in turn also had a corresponding effect on Energy and became a corresponding and potentially observable Effect.

What Exactly is Dark Energy

By Robert Kernodle



Could the Whole Universe Have Originated from Dark Energy, The Sustainer of all Creation?

It is a fact that dark energy (zero point energy or ZPE) is an all-pervasive antigravity force behind the expansion of the entire universe which also prevents it from collapsing back in on itself. I believe dark energy is what keeps electrons from collapsing into the nuclei of atoms, it is that which provides a reality or substance to everything by giving it a quantum motion or vibration without which nothing can exist or interact. Dark energy (or prana) is that which maintains all the energy in the universe. As the source of all creation of both dark matter and physical matter, it is the ether, first cause and primary etheric substance of all things. It is the zero point field (see The Field: The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe) of all virtual particle creation and dissolution.

So profound is the relationship of dark energy to the existence of all matter in the universe that if all quantum "movement" were to suddenly stop, all the atoms in existence would collapse into infinitesimal specks of nothingness. There would then be nothing to stop the whole universe, including all space and time from collapsing or tightly curling back into a singularity under its own weight where all the higher dimensions reside. Zero point energy (see also the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle) is the bedrock or foundation of all energy and creation. Not only does ZPE keep electrons from collapsing back into the nuclei of all atoms, but also acts as an antigravity force throughout the entire universe that maintains its expansion so that galaxies don't all gravitationally collapse back into a single unit while keeping a relatively even distribution of galactic clusters throughout the entire universe.

Dark (or Quantum) Energy Originates in the Subatomic World of Five Dimensions

ZPE is a very fine universal vibration of chaotic spacial and temporal movement (in five dimensions) on a subatomic level caused by the Uncertainty Principle which I believe is the very ultimate cause of all energy and matter (matter is made of energy) in the universe. The source of all quantum energy has its roots in the fifth dimension's limited extension (its range stays tightly curled, through gravitational collapse, to within subatomic distances, but not as tightly as the higher dimensions). Because the fifth dimension is the realm of all probabilities (a sort of intersection of parallel universes), at the level of the subatomic, everything becomes "blurred" so that nothing remains stationary and there is a constant jiggling around into all four dimensions of time and space, but only within a very limited range, which is critical to how smoothly the logical flow of natural phenomena runs down through the river of time. Time, otherwise would not be linear.

Quantum Physics Can Create the Strangest Effects that Anyone Could Ever Dream of

The following may sound more like a flight of fancy far beyond the bounds of standard scientific thinking. However, if somehow the strength of quantum (dark) energy grew much larger, or one could "shrink down" one's world into sub-atomic scales as in the "Quantum Cafe" portrayed in Elegant Universe, the influence of entropy on energy systems might grow far less. Life could start to behave in bizarre ways because any possibility could be experienced. Even though time may generally go forward at the usual rate, time would stop, start and go backwards, yet jump forward. In other words, it would be as if an extra dimension of time and space has opened up for all to exist in, making it possible to walk outside of time! All possible motions would come into one's experience as all of the most likely scenarios would try to play themselves out.

From all my years of research into quantum physics, I believe anything five-dimensional is thought responsive. I therefore speculate that actual exterior manifestations of one's intentions or desires could pop into and out of existence if a wide enough range of five-dimensional "space" existed. This situation might very well be a metaphysician's wildest dream come true as all one's wishes become externally and temporarily manifested. One may even be able to teleport into any desired location; just as time need no longer be an obstacle, distance can also be overcome as one is able to "tunnel through" or directly connect to other times and places via higher dimensional portals. One could then by-pass the standard limitations of the distance-time continuum, travel back and forward through time, and even walk through walls.

The electromagnetic spectrum would go berserk as it is flooded with massive quantities of random (white noise) background radiation at all frequencies. Everything would glow mysterious colors and space itself would have a strange luminosity to it, so much so that night, instead of complete darkness, may seem like a long twilight, and stars may shine forever, because whatever exists in five-dimensions never runs down, time just jumps back and forth in "probability" which is a timeless source of energy throughout the universe.

Even sounds in the air may be affected in a similar way as spontaneously created musical notes vibrate the atmosphere orchestrated by an ever present, spontaneous universal intelligence from even higher dimensions of consciousness that govern all reality. Miracles would be commonplace. Just as electrons do now on a subatomic level, a spinning toy top might just keep on spinning indefinitely, humans might be able to live without food, and being subject to the force of gravity may only be optional, not required. This "paradise" could be an ideal but flukey world, yet never really chaotic or terrifying, basically controlled and regulated by a universal, consciously aware intelligence (God?) quite naturally and deeply embedded in all the higher dimensions of reality. Remembering that all life is governed by timeless mathematical principles, there is great order, beauty and intelligence in all the deeper fields of reality. Therefore adding an extra dimension to life may very well lead to far less chaos and suffering, much more fulfillment and happiness, and much, much more time, energy, and opportunity to experience whatever one's mind wants one to experience.

Does this state of existence sound very much like those of lucid dream states, astral projection, and/or some levels of the afterlife where finer states of matter tend to manifest all possibilities and/or be influenced by one's attitudes? There is a profound connection between anything mystical and the five plus higher dimensions. Only quantum theory (which completely depends on having at least five dimensions) can begin to explain why the universe is as strange as it is: how it is possible to remote view, harness free energy, experience the future, channel other entities, astral project, and tune into another person's thoughts.

Universes of Baryonic Matter May be Far More Restricted than Universes of Dark Matter

From what I have learned from various channels such as Bashar, most other universes or existences tend to be far less limited by the constraints of linear time and causation, and therefore behave more like what I have described above, depending on the rate or level of vibration one is attuned to. The realms of the afterlife (consisting of dark or astral matter) are more or less free of all the major constraints and daily difficulties modern human beings must face in the physical universe. In our physical (baryonic) reality, it is as if a whole dimension such as the fifth dimension has been cut away, or at least most of it, from our reality so that only a "bare bones" essential sliver of it remains as the quantum field scientists are learning about today. Our entire lives have to be crammed mainly into the tight and unforgiving restraints of four-dimensional or linear space-time where energy becomes sparse, budgets have to be managed, and priorities carefully juggled.

Why is this so? It is because the density of physical matter is very heavy and collapses much sooner than higher vibrational states of matter such as astral matter whenever it tries to "extend" in five dimensions (directions) or try to gather information from outside of the space-time continuum. The astral worlds consist of finer particles that are even less subject to the limitations of space-time while being even more liberated by the influences of higher dimensions. The universe we are living in today is perhaps a very limited version of what most universes may actually be like. This is because the type of material/physical world we exist in is made of particles of baryonic matter (instead of dark matter) which are at such a heavy, low vibrational state, they cannot "stretch" or "span" into an extra five dimensions very far without collapsing under their own weight. We are therefore "grounded" in a very tightly bound and physically restricted "thermodynamic arrow of time" continuum where entropy becomes a huge factor. Most universes made of dark matter in contrast, have much more access to the blessings of the "five-dimensional" freedom naturally inherent in most of the realities of existence. Most of these universes of dark matter (heavens) are not obligated in any way to the disappointing and disheartening trials and tribulations of entropy or old age.

Again, these concepts are not standard scientific thinking, however someday, I hope more and more scientists will come round to fully realizing the reality of these great mystical truths.

The Law of Attraction and Quantum Physics

By Kate Corbin



"If thoughts can do that to water, imagine what our thoughts can do to us." - from the movie, What the Bleep Do We Know!?

The Law of Attraction teaches that we attract into our lives whatever we focus on. Quantum Physics teaches that nothing is fixed, that there are no limitations, that everything is vibrating Energy. By understanding that everything is Energy in a state of potential and by applying the Law of Attraction to bring into our lives what we focus on, it is never necessary to feel stuck with an undesirable life.

We are Creators of the Universe. The classical physics of Newton takes a material perspective in which the Universe is composed of discrete building blocks, solid and unchangeable. Quantum physics takes a spiritual perspective in which there are no separate parts, in which everything is fluid and always changing.

The physical world is a sea of Energy constantly flashing into and out of existence. It is through our thoughts that we transform this ever-changing Energy into observable reality. Therefore, we can create our reality with our thoughts. With quantum physics, science is leaving behind the notion that human beings are powerless victims and moving toward an understanding that we are fully empowered creators of our lives and of our world.

With Newton, we were insignificant cogs in the Universal Machinery. With quantum physics, we are Creators of the Universe.

Everything is Energy. Einstein's 1905 formula E = mc2 explains the relationship between Energy and matter, i.e., that Energy and matter are interchangeable - that, in reality, everything is Energy - dancing, fluid, ever-changing Energy.

This Energy is influenced by our thoughts. It is shapeable, formable, and moldable. As Creators, we shape, form and mold the Energy of the Universe through our thoughts. We transform the Energy of our thoughts into the Energy of our reality.

The Physics of Possibility. The popular movie, What the Bleep Do We Know!?, clarifies that quantum physics is the physics of possibility. We have been conditioned to believe that the external world is more real than the internal world. Quantum physics says just the opposite. It says that what's happening on the inside determines what's happening on the outside. It says that our world is shaped by our thoughts.

Since nothing is fixed and everything is in a state of potential, everything is possible. As we understand that everything is possible, and as we focus our thoughts on what we want to attract, we can literally call into existence whatever we desire.

My ten-year old neighbor loves the expression - "It could happen!" He probably doesn't know much about the physics of possibility, but he practices it with his great attitude. He reminds me to entertain possibility. He reminds me that nothing is impossible.

Dreams into Reality. The Universe exists as infinite potential in infinite abundance. As we focus our thoughts, we have the power to bring our desires into existence, our dreams into reality. As we focus our thoughts, we have the power to be and do and have whatever we desire.

The Metaphysical Nature of Personal Histories

By Dave Almeida 


Most of us take the past to be a relatively straightforward matter. We see our personal histories as sequential events. These are lodged in our memory banks for all time. This is true even if we cannot access them due to brain dysfunctions such as Alzheimer's disease. Because memories are mental, they are subject to the laws of the universe. Personal histories are like any other manifestation of the infinite multiverse. We can manipulate histories. Histories may be freely accepted or discarded at our choosing.

Each event comes with a history. I like to call the history of an event a downline. This is not an MLM scheme. Downlines are the past events that led up to the present event. Each situation has its own downline. All of these downlines intertwine into a vast network. In the end, all events link to one another by a matter of degrees. Some of the relationships may be remote, but they all on each other's downline. Here's an example:

When a woman enters into a romantic relationship, she is accepting the entire history of the other person. Some people call it baggage. Each person has a different story or downline. When the woman forms a relationship with this person, the partner's downline becomes part of her own. This includes the partner's family. Each member of the partner's family has a downline. All of these lines become part of the woman's downline.

This process is not exclusive to people. Animals and objects also have their stories. Events also appear chronologically. Many of us can recall the events that led up to the 9/11 tragedy. That terrible day did not just happen out the blue. The perpetrators carefully planned their attack over time. That is the event's downline. These histories are built-in. Every future possibility comes with a history. Every time we make a choice, we are bringing a new set of experiences into our lives. It's easy to see that the future is commingled with the past.

In order to experience life, we agree to accept a certain kind of amnesia that keeps us from knowing the truth. This amnesia allows the master plan to unfold. Because of this, we believe in the illusion of our chronological histories. We believe in our downlines. We allow downlines to become part of our past without questioning them. The downlines do not have to be accepted. What we don't realize that if an event didn't happen, then neither did the history. It doesn't become part of your downline. It never happened in the reality you are experiencing. It is nonexistent. At least in this reality. Since histories are bundled with future possibilities, they only manifest when we consciously or unconsciously choose them.

This concept gives us a great deal of power. We can change our lives with this information. We may even able to avert the consequences of poor decision making on a global scale.

How Feng Shui Predictions Are Made for 2013

By Kartar Diamond 



Feng Shui annual predictions come from a variety of sources. We can talk in very general terms when it comes to global predictions, or directionology as it relates to the individual house, as well as some observations specific to the person based on their own birth date.

In the Year of the Snake, it's bound to be a good year for some people, but not necessarily those born in the Year of the Snake, such as the years 1953, 1965, 1977, or 1989. For example, we have five different types of Snake people (Water, Wood, Fire, Earth, or Metal Snakes). If it sounds a bit like Chinese Astrology, that is because the two predictive arts work really well with each other. In a general way, we can say that the Year of the Snake may be even more challenging to people born in the Year of the Pig because those two signs are always in opposition to each other.

On a larger scale, we can refer to the Snake and Pig directions as being more vulnerable to accidents or mishaps in the Snake Year. When referring to any kind of map, these directions are relative to the center point, so of course there will be overlapping influences. The Snake direction is S/SE and the Pig direction is N/NW. If you did not know before, now you know that the zodiac signs relate to both time and direction!

If you were trying to locate these directions in relation to the country you live in or the state you live in, these directions would be relative to the geometric center of the country or state.

These predictions can be taken down to an individual city or in the common domain of a Feng Shui practitioner, your very house or business.

While Chinese Astrology imparts a 12 year repeating cycle inside a grander 60 year cycle, in Feng Shui we have a 9 year repeating cycle as well as 20 Year Eras. So for instance, the same annual energy which will come to your bedroom in 2013 is the same energy that resided there in 2004. If your bedroom is in the southeast, then 2013 may be more romantic encounters. The annual Five Yellow Star is residing in the center (not technically a direction) and this has many Chinese metaphysicians concerned because the 5 Yellow Star is associated with disasters and pain in the current times we live in. To have that kind of energy in the center of every structure or in the center core of every city or country, it can suggest a tendency of more upheaval, arguments, strife or accidents. And since we live in Period 8 (from 2004 until 2024), this combination of "earth" energies can also suggest a higher incidence of earthquakes or other natural phenomenon related to the earth which could include drought or landslides or anything extreme related to the earth.

The 5 Yellow Star is related to set-backs or delays and yet we can't honestly say that everyone on the planet will be harnessed to this kind of energy with no escape. This is where the individual destiny and the individual house come into play. For example, one person may live in a house where the annual 2 star of sickness and health may be at their front door in 2013 (Southwest) and their prospects for the year may not be as good as someone whose front door welcomes the annual 8 wealth star (Northeast) in 2013. In Xuan Kong Fei Xing (Flying Star School) the age of the house may still determine more of what the occupant's experiences will be than the annual cycles. But annual cycles will act as a trigger for more dormant energies. As a theoretical example, the direction of south will be associated with a greater potential for a fire accident in 2013 and if that annual force joins an area of a floor plan already vulnerable to a fire, then the annual cycle may just be the last straw. In contrast, the annual 9 fire star could join positive energy and actually bring great fortune to someone. This is why a competent and comprehensive evaluation has to be performed, discovering the uniqueness of each property.

One aspect of uniqueness to 2013 will be that the annual "star" in each direction will match the inherent element for each of the eight basic directions. For example, the annual 1 star will be in the North in 2013. Both the 1 star and the North resonate with the water element. The annual 7 metal start will be in the west and west is inherently a "metal" type direction. What this is going to do is intensify both positive and negative influences of each direction.

Historically, these passages of time were taken so seriously that the Chinese emperors would wear robes in the color associated with the season or grander cycles of the time. My best advice for anyone really interested in their potential for the year, is to enlist the services of a highly trained astrologer, Feng Shui master or Nine Star Ki diviner to look deeper into the stars and what they have to say for you personally, transcending the superficial. Otherwise, the general predictions are just that, general.
