    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;As I cross through the threshold&#xD;
Entering this shortest day&#xD;
Passing this longest night&#xD;
My mind travels through dimensions&#xD;
Reflecting the myriad crystals of Eternity&#xD;
&#xD;
Their beauty and perfection is Breathtaking&#xD;
And the story of the greatest years on Earth&#xD;
Resonates my Sacred Purpose inside me&#xD;
For I know that the Time has come&#xD;
That all Ages have long awaited&#xD;
&#xD;
To be here in this Gift of Transformation&#xD;
And stand for the Light of Life and Love&#xD;
My eyes turned to the Spectral Stars&#xD;
Greeting a Family I once bade farewell&#xD;
Holding hands with Family I've found again&#xD;
&#xD;
Can you feel the bridge that is open Now?&#xD;
The Truth that resonates from this Gate?&#xD;
Prophecy is fulfilled and Love is Growing&#xD;
Like a tide that no breaking wall can stem&#xD;
And we all remember we knew this was coming&#xD;
&#xD;
Not as a storm of death and destruction&#xD;
Not as a cataclysm of loss and forgetfulness&#xD;
This change is coming sure and sweet and True&#xD;
As the sudden rainbows of flowers in Spring&#xD;
As a flash of Satori that will thunder for a Millennium&#xD;
&#xD;
So brush off your canvas and clear your crystals&#xD;
Repair your cloak and finest magic robes&#xD;
Stretch and strengthen those beautiful muscles&#xD;
Let dance your Body and Spirit and Soul&#xD;
Let stream the flow of your Mind and your Heart&#xD;
&#xD;
Take up those tasks that you've been awaiting&#xD;
Lay down those weights you've been carrying&#xD;
Remember that you are a gift to this World&#xD;
And its time that you shared it with Everyone&#xD;
Including your Self&#xD;
&#xD;
This is your Wealth&#xD;
This is your Glory&#xD;
Step out of the Cave&#xD;
And write your True Story&#xD;
&#xD;
Blessed Solstice&#xD;
My Dear Family&#xD;
&#xD;

    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;Deeply Quickly&#xD;
Falling into the Storm&#xD;
Spun like a Hurricane&#xD;
Left dizzy&#xD;
&#xD;
A Strong Drink&#xD;
Intoxicating by smell&#xD;
Hallucinating in taste&#xD;
A purr to the touch&#xD;
&#xD;
Blinding Light&#xD;
Refracted in Brilliant Purpose&#xD;
Scintillating through Myriad Medicines&#xD;
Piercing a quiet Heart&#xD;
&#xD;
Slow down...&#xD;
Too deep...&#xD;
So fast...&#xD;
Too much...&#xD;
&#xD;
Lurching Tide&#xD;
Sweeping everything forward&#xD;
Leaving nothing to the reef&#xD;
In swells of Passion&#xD;
&#xD;
Looming Space&#xD;
One step opening a Mystery without end&#xD;
The folly freeing and fairly fantastic&#xD;
And you hope it lasts forever&#xD;
&#xD;
Slow down...&#xD;
Too deep...&#xD;
So fast...&#xD;
Too much...&#xD;
&#xD;
How do I stem&#xD;
The rushing wind&#xD;
The pumping blood&#xD;
The streaming light&#xD;
The churning seas&#xD;
The endless depth&#xD;
Of my Love?&#xD;
&#xD;
Tell my Heart&#xD;
To stop Beating&#xD;
&#xD;
Tell my Breath&#xD;
To stop Heaving&#xD;
&#xD;
Or at least slow down&#xD;
Tell me How...&#xD;
&#xD;
The sands keep pouring&#xD;
And the further I go&#xD;
The farther I get&#xD;
From being able&#xD;
To dam this river&#xD;
&#xD;
It wants to sweep me away&#xD;
And everything I have&#xD;
Into a Love Song&#xD;
That consumes&#xD;
Everything&#xD;
&#xD;
Yet Saturn speaks&#xD;
And time is essential&#xD;
More space is so necessary&#xD;
And we must...slow...down...&#xD;
To catch up with ourselves...&#xD;
&#xD;
Please, Brother of the Rings&#xD;
Show me how I can contain this Fire&#xD;
Teach me the Art of transforming my Passion&#xD;
Lead me through my fingertips and lips&#xD;
Let them dance my silent Prayer&#xD;
&#xD;
How can my Flame Grow&#xD;
And not boil away the Water&#xD;
How can my Heart Flow&#xD;
And not set my blood Afire&#xD;
&#xD;
How can my Water Feel&#xD;
And not freeze under a Storm&#xD;
How can my Wind Breathe&#xD;
And not be too cold or Warm&#xD;
&#xD;
Hear me Starwalker&#xD;
I dance the Rings tonight&#xD;
Crossing from this Lunar Dragon&#xD;
Into the Electric Wind's White&#xD;
&#xD;
The falling Crystals Sing&#xD;
And I'll sleep under their Song&#xD;
And may this night I Dream&#xD;
Of a Love so Perfectly Right&#xD;
That no Act of its Light&#xD;
Can ever be Wrong&#xD;
&#xD;
Slow down Raindrops&#xD;
The time of floods has Passed&#xD;
May the falling Stars Teach Us&#xD;
Of a Love that Everlasts&#xD;
&#xD;
For even Winter ends&#xD;
And sprouting Spring begins&#xD;
But what of the Turning Sun&#xD;
And the days when the Universe begun?&#xD;
&#xD;
Where whirlpools of Stars gather&#xD;
The Heart is there in Fire and Water&#xD;
Sounding rhythms through Life's Chain&#xD;
Evolving Souls and Bodies Again&#xD;
&#xD;
Yes dear, it is violent at Times&#xD;
And yet in the chaos are simple Rhymes&#xD;
Of Giving and Receiving&#xD;
Letting go, letting Flow&#xD;
&#xD;
Somehow through it all, We Know&#xD;
There is a Peace behind the Tides&#xD;
And through Falling in Love&#xD;
We learn to Die&#xD;
&#xD;
Born Again&#xD;
In the Solace of Monsoons&#xD;
Born Again&#xD;
In the Waterfall Lagoons&#xD;
Born Again &#xD;
In the River's Bend&#xD;
Born Again&#xD;
At the Delta's End&#xD;
&#xD;
Our water Grows as Love Flows&#xD;
And the swells become Tsunamis&#xD;
But rest now dear Lover&#xD;
Let the Sea absorb your Tears&#xD;
&#xD;
Float out into the Deepest Ocean&#xD;
Let the Mother drown your Fears&#xD;
Keep falling until there is no Bottom&#xD;
For all you were seeking is Here&#xD;
&#xD;
You are Loved more&#xD;
Than you Can imagine&#xD;
And you Have More Love&#xD;
Than that...&#xD;
&#xD;
What is fast for one&#xD;
Is slow for another&#xD;
And that is simply fact&#xD;
&#xD;
When you're on your knees&#xD;
And this love is your Last&#xD;
Just remember the Past&#xD;
&#xD;
When you need to share&#xD;
And your fire is there&#xD;
Someone always needs to Receive&#xD;
&#xD;
I Believe...&#xD;
&#xD;
Yes...&#xD;
&#xD;
I Love You&#xD;
As Slowly&#xD;
As Time&#xD;
&#xD;

&#xD;
Indigenous grandmas nearly kicked out of Vatican&#xD;
&#xD;
Posted: July 18, 2008&#xD;
by: Rob Capriccioso&#xD;
&#xD;
ROME - They went to pray. They went to see Pope Benedict XVI on his home&#xD;
turf. They went to ask that he rescind historic church doctrine that played&#xD;
a role in the genocidal onslaught of millions of indigenous people&#xD;
worldwide.&#xD;
&#xD;
For 13 indigenous grandmothers, accomplishing only one of their three goals&#xD;
wouldn't have been so bad - had they also not been harassed by several&#xD;
Vatican policemen who claimed the women were conducting "anti-Catholic"&#xD;
demonstrations.&#xD;
&#xD;
The elders, formally known as the International Council of Thirteen&#xD;
Indigenous Grandmothers, convened in the morning hours of July 9 at St.&#xD;
Peter's Square. After setting up an altar cloth, candles and sacred&#xD;
objects, including feathers and incense, they began holding a prayer and&#xD;
ceremony circle. Nine-year-old Davian Joell Stand-Gilpin, a direct&#xD;
descendant of Chief Dull Knife of the Lakota Nation, was brought along by&#xD;
one of the grandmothers to participate in traditional regalia.&#xD;
&#xD;
Soon, however, four Vatican police offic&#xD;
ials asked the women to stop the&#xD;
prayer ceremony, claiming their prayers were in contradiction to the&#xD;
church's teachings - despite the two crosses on the alter cloth and some of&#xD;
the members being practitioners of the Catholic faith.&#xD;
&#xD;
The officials told Carole Hart, an Emmy and Peabody award-winning producer&#xD;
and filmmaker traveling with the grandmas, that the group was in violation&#xD;
of Vatican policy. They said a permit Hart had obtained in order to&#xD;
document the prayer gathering was only relevant in terms of filming, but&#xD;
did not allow the women to pray, sing or burn incense.&#xD;
&#xD;
The police said the actions of the grandmothers were "idolatrous."&#xD;
&#xD;
Through the course of obtaining the permit, Hart had written to Vatican&#xD;
officials explaining that the grandmothers would be conducting a prayer&#xD;
ceremony at the site.&#xD;
&#xD;
"We stuck to the fact that we were legitimately there with this permit,"&#xD;
Hart said. "The grandmas did not back down."&#xD;
&#xD;
Still, the police urged the grandmothers to move on; but Hart and the group&#xD;
appealed the decision to a higher authority. Finally, the police brought&#xD;
back a law official who assessed the situation. Upon seeing 13 indigenous&#xD;
elder women and hearing one of their songs, the official concluded there&#xD;
was no problem with the ceremony.&#xD;
&#xD;
The official also ultimately invited the grandmothers to enter St. Peter's&#xD;
Basilica to rest and pray.&#xD;
&#xD;
Despite their short-term success, the ultimate goal of the grandmothers -&#xD;
to hand-deliver a st&#xD;
atement to Pope Benedict XVI, asking him to rescind&#xD;
several controversial papal bulls that played a part in the colonization of&#xD;
indigenous lands - was thwarted.&#xD;
&#xD;
Documents from the 15th century, such as the papal bulls, show the papacy&#xD;
played a role in the genocidal onslaught that affected millions of&#xD;
indigenous people on the North American continent. In 1455, for instance,&#xD;
Pope Nicolas authorized Portugal "to invade, search out, capture, vanquish&#xD;
and subdue all Saracens and pagans" who had previously made their homes in&#xD;
North America.&#xD;
&#xD;
Just a short time before the grandmothers left for their long-planned&#xD;
journey to Rome, Pope Benedict XVI announced that he would be leaving the&#xD;
Vatican to rest at his summer home, called Castel Gandolfo, in preparation&#xD;
for a trip to Australia.&#xD;
&#xD;
The pope had originally been scheduled to be in residence July 9. Laura&#xD;
Jackson, the grandmothers' publicist, described the pope's decision to&#xD;
leave the Vatican as a "sudden cancellation" and noted that the grandmas&#xD;
held tickets to a scheduled public audience he was to have held that day.&#xD;
&#xD;
While Castel Gandolfo is less than 20 miles away from the Vatican, the&#xD;
grandmothers ultimately decided not to make the journey to the pope's&#xD;
summer getaway despite some in their inner circle encouraging them to pay&#xD;
an unexpected visit.&#xD;
&#xD;
Hart believes the grandmothers chose to focus on St. Peter's Square because&#xD;
it's part of the Vatican and is a strong symbol of the pope.&#xD;
&#xD;
"As women of&#xD;
 prayer, I think they felt that bringing their prayer there, on&#xD;
the very ground on which the church as an institution stands, as close as&#xD;
they could get to the heart of the church, would have a great effect on&#xD;
what will happen next," Hart said. Additionally, the women had no guarantee&#xD;
that they would even be able to enter the grounds of the pope's summer&#xD;
residence.&#xD;
&#xD;
Instead, the elders left a package with one of the pope's personal guards&#xD;
at the Vatican. The package contained a written statement the women had&#xD;
sent to the Vatican in 2005 decrying the papal bulls, to which the Vatican&#xD;
never responded. It also contained a new 632-word statement to the pope&#xD;
asking him to repeal three Christian-based doctrines of "discovery" and&#xD;
"conquest" that set a foundation for claiming lands occupied by indigenous&#xD;
people around the world.&#xD;
&#xD;
"We carry this message for Pope Benedict XVI, traveling with the spirits of&#xD;
our ancestors," the women said in their new message. "While praying at the&#xD;
Vatican for peace, we are praying for all peoples. We are here at the&#xD;
Vatican, humbly, not as representatives of indigenous nations, but as women&#xD;
of prayer."&#xD;
&#xD;
The package was given to the pope's guard via a traditional Lakota manner,&#xD;
by extending it to him three times with him then accepting it on the fourth&#xD;
attempt. The entire process was captured on film, and is expected to be&#xD;
made into a documentary by Hart in the coming year.&#xD;
&#xD;
It is unknown whether the pope h&#xD;
as yet personally received the package, but&#xD;
legal scholars and Native activists in the U.S. have nonetheless been&#xD;
paying close attention to the grandmothers' journey.&#xD;
&#xD;
"I think the trip is very significant," said Steven Newcomb, co-director of&#xD;
the Indigenous Law Institute and author of the book, "Pagans in the&#xD;
Promised Land: Decoding the Doctrine of Christian Discovery," and an Indian&#xD;
Country Today columnist.&#xD;
&#xD;
"These are women who are very much grounded in their own languages and&#xD;
traditions. They're able to raise visibility of the issue in ways that&#xD;
others are perhaps less effective."&#xD;
&#xD;
The grandmothers from the U.S. who sit on the women's council are Margaret&#xD;
Behan, of the Arapaho/Cheyenne of Montana; Agnes Baker Pilgrim, of the&#xD;
Takelma Siletz; and Beatrice Long Visitor Holy Dance and Rita Long Visitor&#xD;
Holy Dance, both Oglala Lakota of Black Hills, S.D.&#xD;
&#xD;
All of the grandmothers are currently in private council in Assisi, Italy,&#xD;
and are expected to be returning home by early August.&lt;/div&gt;</description>

										&lt;div&gt;It is Time&#xD;
&#xD;
When all has fallen&#xD;
Shadows receding like tides&#xD;
Tattered seaweed and sifting sands&#xD;
Glass broken and slicing shards&#xD;
Softened to smooth stones&#xD;
&#xD;
The Sun kisses the Sea&#xD;
The First Breath swells into Me&#xD;
Heart pounding through the Stillness&#xD;
Until the Endless Silence crashes in foam&#xD;
&#xD;
Bubbles of Memories and Sensations&#xD;
Cascading over yearning pores&#xD;
Gates to Lightning in my Blood&#xD;
Unlocked in a single Thought&#xD;
&#xD;
It is You&#xD;
&#xD;
Blinding me with the clarity of your reflection&#xD;
Leaving me stammering to fill your pointed ears&#xD;
Driving me through the rainstorms and dense fog&#xD;
And Awakening the Trembles of Transformation&#xD;
&#xD;
My eyes constantly seek your Grace&#xD;
My ears strain to hear your Prayers&#xD;
My nose flares with your Spices&#xD;
My lips linger for your Honey&#xD;
Such sweetness&#xD;
You Are&#xD;
&#xD;
I am clearly consumed&#xD;
Gambling all my Heart Chips&#xD;
Playing my cards with brash candor&#xD;
Knowing no bluff can survive this table&#xD;
&#xD;
Yet I have lost it all&#xD;
So many dear times&#xD;
What is it to play for broke?&#xD;
&#xD;
I am already Lost&#xD;
Cast to the Winds of Destiny&#xD;
Pouring Forth my Faith&#xD;
Flying Freefall&#xD;
Favorably&#xD;
&#xD;
At least by Memory's Measure...&#xD;
&#xD;
Perhaps you will Love me Tonight&#xD;
Perhaps you will Leave me Tomorrow&#xD;
&#xD;
Perhaps you will &#xD;
Always be Here&#xD;
Perhaps you will &#xD;
All Ways be Divided&#xD;
&#xD;
Perhaps it is my Choice&#xD;
Perhaps it is Yours&#xD;
Perhaps Not&#xD;
&#xD;
Either Way&#xD;
I'm already diving&#xD;
White cliffs streaking&#xD;
Past in Perfect Detail&#xD;
&#xD;
The Water Comes&#xD;
To Embrace Me Completely&#xD;
Whether in Death or in Birth&#xD;
I have Yet to Discover&#xD;
What Lies Beneath&#xD;
The Frothy Surf&#xD;
&#xD;
Either Way &#xD;
The Tide is Turning&#xD;
&#xD;
And Growing Wings&#xD;
Is not out of the question...&#xD;

      <description>&lt;a href="http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/c024e05c-9852-49a3-8087-6f7a6328258a"&gt;  						          &lt;img class=" picThumb" src="http://images.tribe.net/tribe/upload/photo/364/462/36446235-5ac7-4102-ae09-d3124d7a8687.thumb" width="65" height="45" alt="" /&gt;
    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;...2:22am...&#xD;
&#xD;
As Scorpio rises, and the Ancient sign of the Dragon comes forth, Pluto enters Capricorn for the first time in over 200 years.  Pluto, Hades, keeper of the Gates of Death and Rebirth, calls for the Structures that have both supported and bound the people of the Earth to fall, and calls forth a new state of Wisdom from the Ashes...a Phoenix to match the Dragon...&#xD;
&#xD;
Now, in this same Moment, a Great Trine shines forth: the Moon in Libra suddenly balancing our deep emotional flow, and Mars in Gemini igniting our dedication to Truth...both are empowering and strengthening the energy of a massive Conjunction in Aquarius...  Mercury, Speaker of the Stars; Neptune, Lord of the Oceans of Love; Chiron, Zen Master of the Key...they together forge an alliance of powerful Communication of our Deepest Awareness, with the Patience and Wisdom of an old Teacher.  They call forth Visions of the World to Be in the Aquarian Age, and as the Phoenix and Dragon meet, we must let fall our fear of the death of the old ways...&#xD;
&#xD;
The Sun trails this Trinity, steadily charting the course of our Path ahead through Aquarius.  It will cross both Chiron and Neptune in the next Two weeks, bringing a "solar flare" of the consciousness they hold to the Earth, along with the energies connected to them.  Here we may see the deep spiritual visions of the Aquarian Age unveiled...for a time...&#xD;
&#xD;
Yet this is not all that unfolds on this Sacred Night...  Pluto is not alone in his crossing into Capricorn, but slips closer to Venus, whose brilliant beauty magnifies his light and force like a gravitational lens...or one of Love...depending on your interpretation of Gravity.  She calls for his transformational power to come through the Goddess, calling for even young women to take on the charge of Capricorn's banner, that of the Wise Elder.  To do this, they must go deep within, to the Cave of the Self, and emerge victorious from the Ancient Mirror.&#xD;
&#xD;
They are not alone, however, as Venus has another companion...  Jupiter rests to her other side, guiding the way like a Beacon of Light...of Faith.  To follow this guidance, she, and all women who would step into their True Nature, must face their Fathers...  Whether Sinful or Saintly, whether Physical or Astral, whether of Blood or Belief, this fatherly Guide holds the key to Ceres, the embodiment of the Grain Goddess, and the Earth Healer who resides in Taurus.  She can bring her abundance to this family, and deep knowledge of the Living Force of Earth, if the brilliance of Jupiter's Faith can guide the way.&#xD;
&#xD;
Even Saturn, retrograde in Virgo, offers his aid to this Family in a triple Trine, clearly instructing the need for careful steps and responsible choices to be made by Lady and Father alike.  He also is shining with the reflection of Uranus in Pisces, calling forth quick and potent awakenings of our Soul's Past and Path through Pluto...but to be applied with Perfect Precision.&#xD;
&#xD;
Still, there are a couple undercurrents that challenge this delicate dance of dreams, as the Moon squares Jupiter and dampens our inner feeling of Faith when we are called to apply it.  Like a Mother who offers balance (Libra) and caution to the Father who would lead the way, the Moon does not block the path, but reminds Venus and the awakening Goddesses that there are Great Wheels turning, even outside their Initiation Process.  The Keys of Spiritual Wisdom and Clear Channeling are at hand through the Chiron, Neptune, Mercury conjunction, and she calls for that recognition and the associated Soul transformations NOW.&#xD;
&#xD;
From the other end of the sky, the Grain Goddess Ceres offers similar caution to those who would leap to the Aquarian Age now through the apparent Portal the Sun creates, and challenges even the Zen Master to look at the source of his strength and wisdom.  As she squares them both, she asks, "Where is your Source? Is it in the Future?  From the Past?  From the Heavens?  From the Earth?"  As she aligns and Trines Jupiter, she would say, "It is from your Faith.  The Faith in your Creation, and all that has Given Birth unto You."&#xD;
&#xD;
Look inside yourselves this night...this day...  What do you have Faith in?  What do you Trust?  Can you recognize the changes happening inside you at this moment, even though there may yet be doubt as to where they might lead?  Open your eyes and look around... at your family... your community... your lands... your Planet...  &#xD;
&#xD;
Watch carefully, and seek deeply.  &#xD;
&#xD;
How does Gaia fare? What is the State of the Union, or lack thereof? Where is the Path, your Path, and to what Future does it lead?  Who would you call upon to help you get there?  What aid do you already have that you have not accepted?  In others?  In yourself?&#xD;
&#xD;
Remember that you are not alone...&#xD;
&#xD;
The Universe conspires to aid you this night; the Stars wink and twinkle bright.&#xD;
&#xD;
...3:33am...&#xD;

    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;"Stop thinking this is all there is.&#xD;
&#xD;
Realize that for every ongoing war and religious outrage and environmental devastation and bogus Iraqi attack plan, there are a thousand counter-balancing acts of staggering generosity and humanity and art and beauty happening all over the world, right now, on a breathtaking scale, from flower box to cathedral......&#xD;
&#xD;
Resist the temptation to drown in fatalism, to shake your head and sigh and just throw in the karmic towel.&#xD;
&#xD;
Realize that this is the perfect moment to change the energy of the world, to step right up and crank your personal volume; right when it all seems dark and bitter and offensive and acrimonious and conflicted and bilious... there's your opening.  &#xD;
&#xD;
Remember magic!  &#xD;
        &#xD;
And, finally, believe you are part of a groundswell, a resistance, a seemingly small but actually very, very large impending karmic overhaul, a great shift, the beginning of something important and potent and unstoppable."&#xD;

      <title>Farewell, Buffalo</title>
      <link>http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/f1f00bb3-876d-40e0-9f59-0939fa03067a</link>
      <description>&lt;a href="http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/f1f00bb3-876d-40e0-9f59-0939fa03067a"&gt;  						          &lt;img class=" picThumb" src="http://images.tribe.net/tribe/upload/photo/18d/e24/18de24ba-c90e-4620-8624-23a5213cb341.thumb" width="65" height="48" alt="" /&gt;
    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;Sometimes when one crosses to the other side in surprise, in chaos, they end up looking around going, "What the f**k just happened?"&#xD;
&#xD;
In the dawning, there is a sense of shock, the same as we experience here.&#xD;
&#xD;
I felt this dear Brother pass today, and couldn't fully understand my sense of disruption and distraction that kept me from putting my full attention on the conversations surrounding me...  When I received a call from Eneleia, everything suddenly clicked into place.  Immediately, I was filled with this dear Brother's presence, his crossing field, his uncertain glances around at this strange change of state.&#xD;
&#xD;
My heart overwhelmed with Love, I prayed to my Step-Mother who passed from this world many years ago.  She has always been there when I needed her, arriving to offer an extra healing hand, a little assistance from the other side...a lot of Love...a Guide.&#xD;
&#xD;
She filled my awareness like a comforting blanket of brilliant Light, and I asked her to help this dear Brother of ours to see his road clearly.  She smiled at me like a winking constellation, and I saw Master Buffalotus being sheltered under her cloak of Light, Guidance, and Love.  He looked upon all of us who were looking at him with awe and more than a little confusion, but this soon faded as he began to accept that his time had come.  For one Beautiful Sister in particular, his Soul lingered so long...&#xD;
&#xD;
Yet this Brother has other work to do, in other realms now.  His choice was made, his path taken, and though we may not always understand the timing, the perfection of this Transformation could not have happened in any other moment.  Fear not, family, he will be around to help us in our times of change during this journey ahead, as he comes to know his new form.  Perhaps, if it is the Will and the Way, he may come back as one of the Children of our Startribe...  Until then, I'll see you in Dreamtime, Buffalotus.&#xD;
&#xD;
...&#xD;
&#xD;
I remember the day I met Buffalo Bill...  I had arrived at the Dreamtime Festival in Colorado early, after a sweeping series of adventures to the Far North.  I entered a small yurt, and there were a few people passing a pipe and chuckling the night away after a hard days labor.  I sat next to a red-haired man with a huge heart-field, and felt right at home.&#xD;
&#xD;
He looked right at me, a grin splitting his face in two, and asked my name, his voice full of husky warmth.  "I'm Buffalo," he replied.  We ended up talking about Crystal formations and Sacred Geometry, and time seemed to vanish.  There are a few beings who have the gift of bringing the timelessness of the Astral Realm to this one, and Buffalo is one of those...  &#xD;
&#xD;
I am so thankful to know him as my Brother, now and Always.&#xD;
&#xD;
With Justice&#xD;
In Honor&#xD;
For the Truth&#xD;
::: LOVE :::&#xD;
With Respect&#xD;
In Peace&#xD;
For the Joy&#xD;
&#xD;
I Am ::: We Know&#xD;
&#xD;
For Buffalo&#xD;
&#xD;
Aloha Ke Akua&#xD;
Blessed Be&#xD;
In Lakech&#xD;
Wopila&#xD;

      <title>Lakota Delegation declares Independence from US</title>
      <link>http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/882d5ac8-4e93-4340-bd64-bd949ce8c109</link>
      <description>&lt;a href="http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/882d5ac8-4e93-4340-bd64-bd949ce8c109"&gt;  						          &lt;img class=" picThumb" src="http://images.tribe.net/tribe/upload/photo/8c8/2ea/8c82ea22-e100-4136-a02b-13290b117636.thumb" width="65" height="48" alt="" /&gt;
    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;WASHINGTON - The Lakota Indians, who gave the world legendary&#xD;
warriors Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse, have withdrawn from treaties&#xD;
with the United States.&#xD;
&#xD;
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,317548,00.html&#xD;
&#xD;
"We are no longer citizens of the United States of America&#xD;
and all those who live in the five-state area that encompasses our&#xD;
country are free to join us,'' long-time Indian rights activist&#xD;
Russell Means said.&#xD;
&#xD;
A delegation of Lakota leaders has delivered a message&#xD;
to the State Department, and said they were unilaterally&#xD;
withdrawing from treaties they signed with the federal government&#xD;
&amp;amp;lt;http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,317548,00.html&gt; of the U.S.,&#xD;
some of them more than 150 years old.&#xD;
&#xD;
The group also visited the Bolivian, Chilean, South African and&#xD;
Venezuelan embassies, and would continue on their diplomatic mission&#xD;
and take it overseas in the coming weeks and months.&#xD;
&#xD;
Lakota country includes parts of the states of Nebraska, South&#xD;
Dakota &amp;amp;lt;http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,317548,00.html&gt; ,&#xD;
North Dakota, Montana and Wyoming.&#xD;
&#xD;
The new country would issue its own passports and&#xD;
driving licences, and living there would be tax-free&#xD;
- provided residents renounce their U.S. citizenship&#xD;
&amp;amp;lt;http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,317548,00.html&gt; , Mr Means said.&#xD;
&#xD;
The treaties signed with the U.S. were merely "worthless words on&#xD;
worthless paper," the Lakota freedom activists said.&#xD;
&#xD;
Withdrawing from the treaties was entirely legal, Means said.&#xD;
&#xD;
"This is according to the laws of the United States, specifically&#xD;
article six of the constitution,'' which states that treaties are&#xD;
the supreme law of the land, he said.&#xD;
&#xD;
"It is also within the laws on treaties passed at the Vienna&#xD;
Convention and put into effect by the US and the rest of the&#xD;
international community in 1980. We are legally within our rights&#xD;
to be free and independent,'' said Means.&#xD;
&#xD;
The Lakota re-launched their journey to freedom in 1974, when they&#xD;
drafted a declaration of continuing independence - an overt play&#xD;
on the title of the United States' Declaration of Independence&#xD;
from England.&#xD;
&#xD;
Thirty-three years have elapsed since then because "it takes critical&#xD;
mass to combat colonialism and we wanted to make sure that all our&#xD;
ducks were in a row,'' Means said.&#xD;
&#xD;
One duck moved into place in September, when the United Nations&#xD;
&amp;amp;lt;http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,317548,00.html&gt; adopted a&#xD;
non-binding declaration on the rights of indigenous peoples -&#xD;
despite opposition from the United States, which said it clashed&#xD;
with its own laws.&#xD;
&#xD;
"We have 33 treaties with the United States that they have not&#xD;
lived by. They continue to take our land, our water, our children,''&#xD;
Phyllis Young, who helped organize the first international conference&#xD;
on indigenous rights in Geneva in 1977, told the news conference.&#xD;
&#xD;
The U.S. "annexation'' of native American land has resulted in once&#xD;
proud tribes such as the Lakota becoming mere "facsimiles of white&#xD;
people,'' said Means.&#xD;
&#xD;
Oppression at the hands of the U.S. government has taken its toll on&#xD;
the Lakota, whose men have one of the shortest life expectancies -&#xD;
less than 44 years - in the world.&#xD;
&#xD;
Lakota teen suicides are 150 per cent above the norm for the U.S.;&#xD;
infant mortality is five times higher than the U.S. average; and&#xD;
unemployment is rife, according to the Lakota freedom movement's&#xD;
website.&#xD;
&#xD;
=============================================&#xD;
No law compels a work eligible man or woman to submit a form W-4 or W-9(or their equivalent) nor disclose an SSN as a condition of being hired or keeping one's job.  With the exception of an order from a court of competent jurisdiction issued by a duly qualified judge, no amounts can be lawfully taken from one's pay (for taxes, fees or other charges) without the worker's explicit, knowing, voluntary, written consent.http://www.preferredservices.org/NonconsentualTaking.html&#xD;

      <title>AdamApollo.info Launch: Conjunction at Galactic Center</title>
      <link>http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/c6d2718d-dca1-406c-9256-0cf6f6192d8e</link>
      <description>&lt;a href="http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/c6d2718d-dca1-406c-9256-0cf6f6192d8e"&gt;  						          &lt;img class=" picThumb" src="http://images.tribe.net/tribe/upload/photo/269/5a0/2695a0a6-451d-455c-8ac8-b4392e57de18.thumb" width="65" height="35" alt="" /&gt;
    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;In case you didn't know, today Pluto, Jupiter, Mercury, the New Moon, and the Sun are all conjunct (together) in the sky right around the location in Sagittarius that is the direction of our Galactic Center. It is a beautiful time for Rebirth, awakening of new Faith, clear Communication, deep Reflection, and alignment of Soul Purpose with our philosophies and adventures.&#xD;
&#xD;
This morning, as the light is slowly emerging outside, I'm launching the first Phase of a Sacred Knowledge Library I've been building for a long time.  It will be a continually expanding record of writings, art, experience, and knowledge.  With your help, it will continue to grow, and I hope that you will join me in this co-creative process of sharing key information that can aid Humanity in this time of great transformation.&#xD;
&#xD;
I've also created a Newsletter that I will be releasing with each site upgrade, but to receive it, you will have to either send me your e-mail address or subscribe directly from the website.&#xD;
&#xD;
Thank you all for your Love and Support.&#xD;

      <title>As to the Hero's journey...</title>
      <link>http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/914cd62e-16c6-4378-ac8f-6130d9742deb</link>
      <description>&lt;a href="http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/914cd62e-16c6-4378-ac8f-6130d9742deb"&gt;  						          &lt;img class=" picThumb" src="http://images.tribe.net/tribe/upload/photo/760/2a1/7602a1ed-bb49-4c84-ab95-b0e62f92e8c1.thumb" width="64" height="78" alt="" /&gt;
    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;The truth is, one doesn't become a Hero and simply retire one day.  One doesn't become Enlightened and take the day off.  In fact, I have experienced Oneness to the point that time simply stopped, and I laughed and God laughed, and we started time back up again.  You see, the Hero's journey is the same as it always has been, it is only that so few actually have had the experience of becoming a Hero, and so the story often suffers greatly in the translation.&#xD;
&#xD;
So how do you become a Hero?  Well, it starts the moment you recognize that you ARE one.  What made Achilles different from every other warrior?  He knew that everything he did was Perfect.  God can't make a mistake, so how could ANYTHING he did be a mistake?  This is the art of the Magi.  This is the Faith of the Hero.  The journey, dear Family, is to test yourself at every opportunity, forging your Trust in your fathomless capability.&lt;/div&gt;</description>

      <title>Deja Vu &amp;amp; Resonance in Spacetime</title>
      <link>http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/5dc0dbd5-7455-4283-b578-e64aa6ef9d29</link>
      <description>&lt;a href="http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/5dc0dbd5-7455-4283-b578-e64aa6ef9d29"&gt;  						          &lt;img class=" picThumb" src="http://images.tribe.net/tribe/upload/photo/d69/001/d6900100-3adb-4953-ba30-0ac22a11e0b9.thumb" width="65" height="44" alt="" /&gt;
    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;&#xD;
You were there before.&#xD;
&#xD;
If for a moment you let fall the judeo-christian idea of a terminal nature to the Soul's experience on Earth, and even begin to consider the concept of having a continuous spirit body, it becomes quite apparent to many people that they would have very likely chosen to come back and be born into another body, even if it meant forgetting most or all of it while the new physical brain developed from new information...&#xD;
&#xD;
...Even if you want to hold on to some of the judeo-christian terminology, just look at the relationships between the "fires of hell" and the "fires of rebirth" in many other cultures, or just look at all of the endless symbolism of fire.  Transformation, death, birth, cleansing, clearing...  One might guess that if you don't get it right, maybe you've got to come back and try again.  After all, Eternal and damnation are simply not words that functionally work together, since damnation is part of duality in this context.  The only other context I know that is does work in is spelled like this: "Damn-Nation."  A useful term when referencing a military-industrial enslavement complex that has co-opted the governing body of a State.&#xD;
&#xD;
The other aspects to understanding some of the more tricky deja vu experiences come from looking more closely at my statement:&#xD;
&#xD;
You were there before.&#xD;
&#xD;
To say that you "were there" suggests that you were in a certain state, not necessarily in a certain place.  You may have been experiencing nearly the exact same state of body chemicals, mental processes, emotions, and physical sensations as you have experienced in another time.&#xD;
&#xD;
"Before" is the other interesting word here.  If we consider for a moment that all the brilliant physicists, cosmologist, astrophysicists, astronomers, and other scientists who have suggested that time is not linear may be right, "before" could simply be at any point before our current experience on any of many multidimensional cycles of time.  This is to say that some experience you may have in the future "was" so powerful that it sent shockwaves through time, which reside in other certain key points in your timeline, one of which you just came across, giving you deja vu of a future moment in time.&#xD;
&#xD;
I like to look at this experience on all levels as a "resonance."&#xD;
&#xD;
When you are in a pool of water, you can create a wave by pushing your hands forward.  This wave doesn't last long however, and quickly dies.  However, if you wait until the wave comes back, and push it forward again just as it bounces off the wall behind you, it gets bigger.  This is easy to experience in a bathtub, as a simple "rocking" of your body can soon have water sloshing out of the tub (and a lot of it when there are two of you in the tub).&#xD;
&#xD;
The speed of your rocking is the resonant speed for the size of the bathtub, and it is slower and longer depending on the size of the container.  Okay, minds out of the closet now people...you're welcome to return in just a moment. Consider swinging on a swingset.  The longer the ropes or chains, the more time you must wait between each "wave" or push, to go higher.  &#xD;
&#xD;
When deja vu occurs, you have just "pushed" at the right moment, in the right waters, raising the energy level of your experience and allowing the original "wave" to be experienced even stronger now.&#xD;

When you consider that many of our experiences may very well be physically "vibrational" in nature, the actual resonance occuring is more like a symphony playing next to another symphony when the two songs they are playing suddenly come into harmony.  Say that one symphony is playing your experiences, with different instruments for each of your senses, thoughts, and emotions.  &#xD;
&#xD;
This same symphony that is you was playing Mozart 400 years ago.  In the midst of your current journey, the universe suddenly starts placing itself in just the right positions, and leading you through just the right pattern of similar situations, and suddenly...Mozart.  But now, it's not just the Mozart it was when you first felt it, its more somehow, like an echo in time...and everything is intensified, including the feeling of Mozart you have now.&#xD;
&#xD;
As Tesla used to say, "Resonance is everything."&#xD;
&#xD;
I agree...  It's Deja Vu too.&#xD;
&#xD;

      <title>3rd to 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th Dimensions Explained (Reprise)</title>
      <link>http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/9141f47a-1db2-44bb-8bb6-a28e09827153</link>
      <description>&lt;a href="http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/9141f47a-1db2-44bb-8bb6-a28e09827153"&gt;  						          &lt;img class=" picThumb" src="http://images.tribe.net/tribe/upload/photo/540/fc6/540fc67d-ec43-494f-91c4-55f9b3f30ef5.thumb" width="49" height="78" alt="" /&gt;
    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;A 3rd to 4th Dimensional shift can be looked at as a very specific Energetic transition in individuals from a Solar-Plexus centered awareness to a Heart centered awareness...Individual Mind to the Eternal Gateway...Transcending the Mind... This is the leap to the 4th Dimension as it is often described (and more often misinterpreted). &#xD;
&#xD;
In a sense, this is simply an awakening of an awareness that accepts Being out of Time, or Being All Time. Such a shift is such a huge leap for some that it takes a long time to process and integrate all the ramifications of being able to send and receive information beyond the perceived limitations of space-time.  This state is also the bridge point, where an individual suddenly realizes that they can experience themselves and another simultaneously.  This is the gift of the Heart, to unite the Self and Other in a state of Union.  On this Dimensional layer, this experience may not be understood, nor may its origin even be perceived, it is simply felt.  This initiates a new cycle of unlocking the Throat, Third-Eye and Crown. &#xD;
&#xD;
The Throat Center or Communication Center is about recognizing the True meaning of Communication. Our relationship to all existence unfolds through the Language of Consciousness, and when we learn this Language, we begin to discover perfect patterns inherent within every "conversation." This is 5th Dimensional consciousness, recognition of Divine Will, and Communion with It.  On this Dimensional layer, we begin to recognize that we are not only connected to Others in a very Physical sense through swimming in the pool of spacetime together, but that our actions ripple through these waters.  We begin to recognize that our Voices resonate both inside of Time, and outside of the boundaries of Matter.  Our ideas can be shared instantaneously, and our actions perceived physically, even by those who are thousands of miles away.  We even begin to see how our actions in the distant past can affect us in the Present.&#xD;
&#xD;
The Third Eye or Spiritual Center unfolds through our awareness of the Spiritual Vibration infusing all of the crystalline fabric of space-time. This awareness gives us a sense of the Song of Existence, and we suddenly Feel the flow of the Universe in its many permutations. This feeling allows us to directly relate to the Source through our own Emotional Vibration, and deepens our Trust or Faith in its Divine Love.  This Dimensional layer opens our awareness to each Other's vibration, and we begin to perceive the way that slight changes in our emotional field ripple through the fabric of consciousness.  We begin to tune into the frequency changes of others, both in our local space and in distant places.  We start to see ourselves constantly in communion, naked in this shared emotional space.  This is a transition of great vulnerability and transparency, and is a powerful point of choice when one decides to either remain open, Honest, and transparent, or cloak themselves in shadow, trying to hide what is within them from others, and often from themselves.&#xD;
&#xD;
Finally, the Crown or Singularity Center (as I often call it) aligns us with the complete state of Absolute Truth and Trust in everything in every Moment. This Trust goes beyond a feeling, or a confirmation externally, it is simply Known. This Knowing preceeds all feeling and manifestation, and continuously blooms further and further as we are willing to allow ourselves to dissolve in Divine Mind.  On this Dimensional layer we begin to perceive everything in it perfect patterns.  We notice the Divine speaking to us through signs, showing us our Eternal Destinies reflected in each and every thought, feeling, and physical experience that comes our way.  All doubt that everything is perfect fades, and this knowing flows forth from us in the radiance of confidence, awakening the Core of our Solar Plexus.  This is the space where all of our minds are in communion, and where all knowledge can be known.&#xD;
&#xD;
In Truth, this is an awakening of 7th Dimensional or Celestial Consciousness, and all further Dimensional awakenings are actually facets of its Eternal Unfolding, and always relate to a higher-harmonic of one of the lower Dimensional centers.  8th Dimensional consciousness is simply a bridge between these experiences of awareness in the Past and Future.  9th Dimensional consciousness links the Past and Future back in to the Eternal Present, weaving every experience ever had into every experience being created.  Eternal Self.&#xD;
&#xD;
10th Dimensional consciousness once again bridges the Eternal Self with the Eternal Mystery of the Other, while 11th Dimensional awareness begins to identify and define that Mysterious Other into an actual Eternal Presence and Being.  12th Dimensional consciousness connects back to 6th, where interaction with that being is experienced in Time.  13th begins to Unify the experience in Time through Mental perception...and so on and so forth, cycling back through each of the basic principles activating multiple layers simultaneously.&#xD;
&#xD;
This is a very simplified exploration, but I trust it weaves some of the principles to aid in understanding these transitions, and translating the often obscure definitions we may come across in our learning journey.&#xD;

    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;&#xD;
I watch the Sun set&#xD;
At a thousand miles per hour&#xD;
As I ride this Surface&#xD;
Sitting Still&#xD;
&#xD;
So gentle...&#xD;
&#xD;
It falls on different Waters&#xD;
Of the distant horizon&#xD;
Every single day&#xD;
As the angle&#xD;
Of the Earth&#xD;
To the Sun&#xD;
Changes&#xD;
&#xD;
Slowly...&#xD;
&#xD;
Around 67,000&#xD;
Miles every Hour&#xD;
Or over One-Thousand&#xD;
Miles every Minute&#xD;
&#xD;
And they Say&#xD;
New York is Fast&#xD;
&#xD;
And I can only tell&#xD;
That we're in Orbit&#xD;
Because of that &#xD;
Old Palm tree&#xD;
The Sun Set&#xD;
Just Past&#xD;
Today...&#xD;
&#xD;
Then the clouds&#xD;
Catch on Fire&#xD;
And the Ocean&#xD;
Turns Velvet&#xD;
And so Soon&#xD;
The Sky is Full&#xD;
Of Endless Stars&#xD;
&#xD;
And that Place There&#xD;
What the Maya called&#xD;
"The Origin of All&#xD;
Movement and Measure"&#xD;
The Hunab Ku&#xD;
Galactic Center Station&#xD;
We all travel around you &#xD;
At only 500,000 miles every hour&#xD;
Solar System and All&#xD;
&#xD;
Seems perfectly Still from Here...&#xD;
&#xD;
And they say You dance&#xD;
Spinning in Celestial romance&#xD;
With our "Local Group"&#xD;
Galactic Family&#xD;
With a couple Star Clouds&#xD;
And a few beautiful Nebulas&#xD;
Giving Birth to New Solar Systems&#xD;
And doing the Tango at 90,000 &#xD;
Miles every single hour&#xD;
&#xD;
Quiet as Eternity...&#xD;
&#xD;
And this whole Family&#xD;
Blasting through the Universe&#xD;
Somewhere between&#xD;
900,000 miles an hour&#xD;
And 1,350,000&#xD;
Depending on which&#xD;
Direction we're headed in&#xD;
And who you're asking&#xD;
&#xD;
Either way, I can't tell&#xD;
On this perfectly smooth ride...&#xD;
&#xD;
So as this Sacred Equinox passes&#xD;
And I reflect on the Nature of this Moment&#xD;
Balanced between the Day Force and Night&#xD;
Somewhere between the Dark and the Light&#xD;
And the Speed of Everything seems so Slow&#xD;
I discover the Eternal Life I am gifted to Know&#xD;
For even a Million Miles traveled in an Hour&#xD;
Or a Million Meters passed in a Second&#xD;
Can flow around my Life like Honey&#xD;
Golden Dewdrops of Perfect Time&#xD;
&#xD;
So Infinitely Precious&#xD;
So Eternally Expansive&#xD;
So Perfectly Present&#xD;
&#xD;
Right Here&#xD;
On Spaceship&#xD;
&#xD;
Earth&#xD;
                                          &#xD;
( O )     o)                   &amp;lt; &amp;amp;lt;O&gt; &gt;                                                                 (            (  &amp;amp;lt;•&gt;  )              )                                            ∞&#xD;

      <title>And Like That, She’s Gone</title>

      <description>&lt;a href="http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/86cce87a-9142-4fb2-9530-d375f9a0841d"&gt;  						          &lt;img class=" picThumb" src="http://images.tribe.net/tribe/upload/photo/cc4/133/cc413349-da42-4fa7-a8ef-13548ddbc253.thumb" width="50" height="78" alt="" /&gt;
    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;A miracle&#xD;
A mystery&#xD;
Just slipping through my History&#xD;
I let her go&#xD;
And Bless it Be&#xD;
&#xD;
Why was she here&#xD;
Inside of me?&#xD;
&#xD;
To know the tearing force of Love&#xD;
When one is willing to sacrifice&#xD;
Their innocence and common sense&#xD;
Letting ignorance suffice?&#xD;
&#xD;
Time’s a teacher&#xD;
She’s a creature&#xD;
With old wounds&#xD;
And Typhoons&#xD;
Of Passion&#xD;
&#xD;
Imagine this&#xD;
Ancient Warrior&#xD;
Magi Priest&#xD;
Angelic Beast&#xD;
Tossed and turned&#xD;
In a bile of self-destruction&#xD;
Volcanic eruption with a&#xD;
Bondage induction&#xD;
&#xD;
But why kneel on this Sacred Earth&#xD;
Watching the Stars&#xD;
For the Promise of Star Birth&#xD;
In front of a Queen&#xD;
Who cannot Bare Her Self&#xD;
Let alone bear Another&#xD;
&#xD;
Tangled in old sheets&#xD;
And slowly peeling off scabs&#xD;
That long ago should have fallen Free&#xD;
But the same pattern repeats&#xD;
When we fail to look&#xD;
And don’t want&#xD;
To See&#xD;
&#xD;
Sometimes&#xD;
I’m talking about Me&#xD;
And thee and he and she&#xD;
Made-In-Space, Trinity&#xD;
&#xD;
This Tale is Old&#xD;
Bought and sold&#xD;
So fold the moldy&#xD;
Papyrus prefect&#xD;
&#xD;
Reset and redirect&#xD;
To a new envisioning flow&#xD;
Of the Infinite Self in full Glow&#xD;
Calling the Forces on Light Horses&#xD;
Gaia’s Body bathed in Love Bubbles&#xD;
Orgasmic pulses popping control cables&#xD;
Cities holding communion with Stars&#xD;
Knowing no Galaxy is too far&#xD;
&#xD;
And neither is my Lady&#xD;
Nestling into my neck&#xD;
Whispering Poetry&#xD;
Projecting Tantra&#xD;
Into the Folds&#xD;
Of my Mind&#xD;
&#xD;
She finds me&#xD;
Somewhere in the midst &#xD;
Of my Ancient Call to Hearts&#xD;
And takes my Breath Away&#xD;
Again and Again until&#xD;
I can only Breathe&#xD;
The Goddess&#xD;
In Her&#xD;
&#xD;
This Day&#xD;
Excites Me&#xD;
As the ripples&#xD;
From the Future&#xD;
Return to Me Now&#xD;
Somehow revealing&#xD;
And still concealing&#xD;
The women I Know&#xD;
And those unknown&#xD;
&#xD;
It is better this Way&#xD;
As I return my Focus&#xD;
To the task of the Day&#xD;
&#xD;
Manifest Destiny&#xD;
&#xD;
Any How&#xD;
Any Way&#xD;
&#xD;
(((O)))&#xD;

      <title>Two Kinds of Magic</title>
      <link>http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/5c0f0210-e3d0-4675-bc0b-3154c8d54938</link>
      <description>&lt;a href="http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/5c0f0210-e3d0-4675-bc0b-3154c8d54938"&gt;  						          &lt;img class=" picThumb" src="http://images.tribe.net/tribe/upload/photo/cbe/f1a/cbef1a39-b475-4a34-94d9-1158f485e6fb.thumb" width="56" height="78" alt="" /&gt;
    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;Its not so simple, anymore&#xD;
And yet it is, but in a sort of &#xD;
Satorical Simplicity&#xD;
The kind that strikes you&#xD;
Moments after deep thought&#xD;
When you’re sure you don’t know&#xD;
The Answer…&#xD;
&#xD;
I remember learning Magic&#xD;
Finding the mind has tools&#xD;
That weave space and time…&#xD;
When the mere innocence of&#xD;
Discovery…or Memory&#xD;
Gave it power beyond measure&#xD;
&#xD;
Its not so simple, anymore&#xD;
And Magic is not Lost…&#xD;
No, it runs our economy&#xD;
Constructed our cities&#xD;
Insures National Security&#xD;
Encourages your vote&#xD;
Increases your productivity&#xD;
Entices buying what you need&#xD;
And of course, what you don’t&#xD;
&#xD;
Its been hundreds of years&#xD;
Since our country began&#xD;
Alchemically conditioning&#xD;
Coins to react with our skin&#xD;
Releasing Pheromones&#xD;
And the smell of Blood&#xD;
&#xD;
But since many of the “Magi”&#xD;
Were burned for centuries&#xD;
For knowing Herbology&#xD;
And much less&#xD;
This can’t be Magic&#xD;
Or the work of Witches&#xD;
Its science and psychology&#xD;
Mathematics and politics&#xD;
&#xD;
Well the curtain is drawn, OZ&#xD;
And its about time the people&#xD;
Began to recognize&#xD;
They are Under a Spell.&#xD;
&#xD;
But this is where we level up&#xD;
I’m not here to throw up&#xD;
Or blow up what you know&#xD;
I don’t have to tell you &#xD;
Or sell you what’s on the show&#xD;
&#xD;
Yet there is a little more&#xD;
I need to underscore&#xD;
If we’re gonna make it through&#xD;
With ship, crew, and stew&#xD;
&#xD;
There are many kinds of Magic&#xD;
One finds if they look hard enough&#xD;
But it ain’t about the kind&#xD;
Its in-twined in deeper stuff&#xD;
&#xD;
1. Build your Chi&#xD;
2. Raise your Force&#xD;
3. Manifest,&#xD;
4. Be Eternal Source…&#xD;
&#xD;
Wait…&#xD;
One of these is not like the others&#xD;
One of these just doesn’t belong&#xD;
One of these is not like the others&#xD;
Otherwise I wouldn’t be singin’ &#xD;
This song&#xD;
&#xD;
“Let’s take a closer look…”&#xD;
&#xD;
…&#xD;
&#xD;
I build my Chi&#xD;
I work it see &#xD;
Just don’t cross me&#xD;
Or I’ll Blast thee!!!&#xD;
&#xD;
…&#xD;
&#xD;
(darth vader)&#xD;
Yes my son&#xD;
Give in to your Anger&#xD;
Let the Dark Side of the Force&#xD;
Rage through you&#xD;
&#xD;
…&#xD;
&#xD;
(swing style)&#xD;
Manifesting money&#xD;
Manifesting love&#xD;
Manifesting greed’oh&#xD;
I can’t get enough&#xD;
&#xD;
…&#xD;
&#xD;
Be Eternal Source&#xD;
Be&#xD;
Eternal&#xD;
Source&#xD;
(hmm)&#xD;
&#xD;
…&#xD;
&#xD;
You see something happens&#xD;
When you fight Vampires&#xD;
…&#xD;
Yes, Real Vampires&#xD;
You know the kind that basically&#xD;
Suck the lifeforce out of someone&#xD;
Until they don’t know&#xD;
Themselves…&#xD;
or much of anything&#xD;
Anymore…&#xD;
&#xD;
There are more than you think.&#xD;
&#xD;
Have you ever been in an argument&#xD;
And knew that no matter what you say&#xD;
The other person is not going to change&#xD;
Their mind?&#xD;
&#xD;
That’s not Vampiric necessarily&#xD;
By the way…&#xD;
That’s stubborn.&#xD;
&#xD;
But that’s also the age-old example&#xD;
Of a stalemate between “Good and Evil”&#xD;
How can Good win&#xD;
Without destroying&#xD;
If Evil is stubborn?&#xD;
&#xD;
Did any of you see the movie&#xD;
“Thank you for Smoking”?&#xD;
&#xD;
Ah, but the answer lies within!&#xD;
&#xD;
The whole point of the movie&#xD;
…or one of them…anyway…&#xD;
Is that the only way to win&#xD;
An argument EVERY time&#xD;
Is to transcend the argument&#xD;
&#xD;
If you can get beyond the&#xD;
This or that&#xD;
Yes or no&#xD;
Good or evil&#xD;
Then you’re no longer&#xD;
On an even playing field&#xD;
&#xD;
Basically in Magical Terms&#xD;
The difference between&#xD;
Infinite Energy&#xD;
And ANY OTHER AMOUNT&#xD;
Of Energy&#xD;
(even a whole super massive mighty ancient powerful uber-googleplex amount of it)&#xD;
&#xD;
Is Infinite.&#xD;
&#xD;
The difference between&#xD;
Infinite Energy&#xD;
And ANY OTHER AMOUNT&#xD;
Of Energy&#xD;
Is Infinite.&#xD;
&#xD;
What’s funny about our whole&#xD;
“Battle to Save the Planet”&#xD;
Is that it is only a battle&#xD;
For the losing sides&#xD;
If you’re battling&#xD;
You missed the point&#xD;
Or you never got there&#xD;
&#xD;
Anyone who needs to take&#xD;
From anyone else&#xD;
In any way&#xD;
Obviously lacks a Conscious &#xD;
Connection to an Infinite Source&#xD;
&#xD;
...&#xD;
&#xD;
So Magic?&#xD;
&#xD;
I'm down with it...&#xD;
But am I any good at it?&#xD;
Only when it's Infinite&#xD;
&#xD;
And Then&#xD;
Its Always&#xD;
All Ways&#xD;
&#xD;
A Gift.&#xD;

    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;Just Listening In&#xD;
Where do we begin&#xD;
&#xD;
These stories must be told&#xD;
Before we grow old&#xD;
Remembering&#xD;
Re-Membering&#xD;
&#xD;
Why do we open up our eyes&#xD;
Just to forget what lies behind&#xD;
We enter this dance&#xD;
Without the steps&#xD;
&#xD;
Finding each other&#xD;
As some foreign other&#xD;
What of the time we spent&#xD;
What of the feelings inside&#xD;
Can we really forget&#xD;
Or just deny?&#xD;
&#xD;
Is it so we can discover&#xD;
More of the Life and Beauty&#xD;
Emerging in our Lovers?&#xD;
&#xD;
Is it so we can reveal&#xD;
The myriad mystical dimensions&#xD;
Latent in our fields?&#xD;
&#xD;
Is it so we can renew&#xD;
Exploring more spaces and embraces&#xD;
Between me and you?&#xD;
&#xD;
It’s not that I don’t know&#xD;
Some things are illuminated&#xD;
Right from the get go&#xD;
&#xD;
But its in the Re-Minders&#xD;
As we Re-Member&#xD;
That Render&#xD;
Truth&#xD;
&#xD;
How else can Her face&#xD;
Melting from Sister&#xD;
With her Ancient Bow&#xD;
To my Mother&#xD;
Lady of the Duke&#xD;
Bearer of the Gift&#xD;
Of my Three Half-Sisters&#xD;
Not tangle my space&#xD;
In a mind-twister&#xD;
But instead ground me&#xD;
In myself even deeper&#xD;
Knowing who I truly Am&#xD;
&#xD;
How else can He stand&#xD;
Younger than I as Man&#xD;
Yet my Father by the Magic&#xD;
Of the Dragon's Song&#xD;
And once long before&#xD;
When the lizards came&#xD;
To our Desolate Planet&#xD;
And our Souls would never&#xD;
Be the same&#xD;
&#xD;
How can She&#xD;
This torrent of energy&#xD;
That shakes my very bones&#xD;
With her Dragon body&#xD;
Be so small and soft&#xD;
Embracing Me&#xD;
A Mother indeed&#xD;
&#xD;
And the Kiss of a Woman&#xD;
Become the kiss of my Daughter&#xD;
And not shatter my conception&#xD;
Of the Now in an instant&#xD;
But instead unfold&#xD;
My Heart&#xD;
In Endlessness&#xD;
&#xD;
And my other Daughter&#xD;
Egypt in her every Breath&#xD;
Sitting on my lap crying&#xD;
My Soul exploding&#xD;
In Pure Joy&#xD;
To find her again&#xD;
&#xD;
And this Beautiful Bird&#xD;
Sister of the Sphinx&#xD;
Bearing my Nephew&#xD;
Who I would pass&#xD;
This Ancient Staff&#xD;
Along Unto&#xD;
&#xD;
And here another&#xD;
A Lady of Avalon&#xD;
Standing before me&#xD;
In the Stone Circle&#xD;
As I kneel to receive&#xD;
A Coronation&#xD;
&#xD;
And here another&#xD;
An Ageless Knight&#xD;
Kneeling before me&#xD;
In the Stone Circle&#xD;
As I touch his shoulders&#xD;
With my Sword&#xD;
&#xD;
Then there is One&#xD;
Who weaves through&#xD;
So many memories&#xD;
As Lover and Sister&#xD;
And so much more&#xD;
At the bleeding edge&#xD;
Of the knowing of names&#xD;
That would solidify our bodies&#xD;
Into the timeless potential of Now&#xD;
&#xD;
There are so many more&#xD;
And the tales will emerge in time&#xD;
As our Souls confirm each other&#xD;
In this Sacred Eternal Rhyme&#xD;
&#xD;
For who we have been&#xD;
Always gives rise&#xD;
To who we can Be&#xD;
&#xD;
If we have spent a lifetime training&#xD;
In the Art of Swordsmanship&#xD;
Or the Dance of Politics&#xD;
Why train again?&#xD;
&#xD;
Why not simply Re-Member&#xD;
And gain those many years&#xD;
Of knowledge and development&#xD;
In a single moment of “oh yeah”&#xD;
&#xD;
They say “better to forget the Past”&#xD;
And “focus only on the Present”&#xD;
But what is the Present&#xD;
If not the culmination&#xD;
Of Every Moment?&#xD;
&#xD;
I say it’s better to Remember&#xD;
To understand the Mysteries&#xD;
Of why we feel the way we Do&#xD;
And discover each other&#xD;
As more than one another&#xD;
&#xD;
Do you remember me?&#xD;
Were we here once before?&#xD;
Do you see what I’m seeing?&#xD;
How do you feel in this memory?&#xD;
What in your life aligns with this?&#xD;
Has that time period always resonated for you?&#xD;
What part of you Now is afraid of who you were?&#xD;
Are you ready to become all that you Are?&#xD;
Can you forgive yourself for the Past?&#xD;
Will you open to your Potential?&#xD;
Can you Know Yourself Now?&#xD;
&#xD;
It is time, for there is no other&#xD;
If we are to accomplish this mission&#xD;
We must relinquish that which holds us back&#xD;
And begin to listen more deeply&#xD;
To each other and everything&#xD;
&#xD;
For Discovery of Self&#xD;
For Healing of Gaia&#xD;
For Love of Being&#xD;
&#xD;
And Knowing our Paths are woven&#xD;
In a Perfect Synchronized Dance&#xD;
From the Beginning to the End&#xD;
This Divine Romance&#xD;

      <title>Inside Gravity, Into Light</title>
      <link>http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/d07bcb3f-2171-4107-92c6-34c758405f6f</link>
      <description>&lt;a href="http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/d07bcb3f-2171-4107-92c6-34c758405f6f"&gt;  						          &lt;img class=" picThumb" src="http://images.tribe.net/tribe/upload/photo/5b2/db1/5b2db1e9-15d1-4e9e-b007-372375b970dc.thumb" width="65" height="39" alt="" /&gt;
    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;I have been through yet another stage of a deep transition in myself, and am beginning to know even more clearly what my path ahead holds...  My Birthday and the following days were full of potent pain and transformation, and I was truly disabled from work to discover a new approach to my action and organization.  I'm still reeling from this, but gaining ground again today, and my head seems to finally have cleared from the fog and a piercing vise.&#xD;
&#xD;
Part of the beauty, and mystery, of this challenge was that it was without any noticeable single trigger.  I feel obvious links between reformatting my Digital Brain (computer), preparing my car for many repairs, reorganizing my data and that of many projects, discovering so many things of which I am ready to relinquish, unveiling the many movements I will be making in the near future, and clearing my body and mind of old stagnations...  Sometimes pain is a great purifier, and helps to illuminate where release and balance are needed.&#xD;
&#xD;
I'm quite sure that I had been so busy accelerating, getting faster and faster, that I began to burn Energy at an incredible rate and gained a huge amount of weight in return.  This weight settled into my body, particularly my head, shoulders and back, and I found myself feeling like Atlas...but still trying to run faster and faster while carrying the world.&#xD;
&#xD;
The greatest momentum exists when one ceases to accelerate, and takes full presence in inherent speed...that is to say, inherent stillness.  I often teach in my workshops that as long as you accelerate, you warp space-time.  This warping is stress, pressure, and tends to separate you from other relative positions and perspectives.  I suggest that if we could move without acceleration, we would be able to travel faster than light, because we would have no resistance.  In fact, we would simply step inside a Singularity, able to access any point in space-time.  This has been softly resonating within me, and come back to haunt all my recent focus on "acceleration."&#xD;
&#xD;
Einstein taught us that acceleration is Gravity...they are indistinguishable...  If you accumulate Gravity or acceleration, you gain mass, or weight.  This is a miracle in itself, since it is this weight that keeps us in orbit around our great Sun, and keeps us in a spiraling dance with the brilliant Moon.  Indeed, through Gravity we will eventually become physically one with all Stars in the Galaxy, through the supermassive Black Hole, or Singularity, at the Milky Way's center...&#xD;
&#xD;
I take this to mean that we use acceleration to gain "leverage," or weight (Gravity) with those we want to partner (be in Orbit) with...  We must be able to "get up to speed" with others, and this takes energy...  Energy is needed to make more Mass, or Gravity...  (E=MC^2)  ...and Energy becomes Mass through the Speed of Light...  What does that mean?&#xD;
&#xD;
If we want to increase our Energy and our Mass, we must do so by becoming deeply tuned to our Superluminal Selves...that part of us that is already at the Speed of Light, in perfect stillness in space and time, at every opportunity.  When we bring this Radiant Stillness into our matter, our mass, our bodies, we generate incredible amounts of Energy.  Indeed, if the greatest stillness is a Singularity (or a Black Hole), notice how TRILLIONS of stars and star-systems gather in a perfect dance when such a Center is present.&#xD;
&#xD;
The Key is keeping focus in the Stillness, because it is from this "open space" that we determine how much Mass, or how much Energy we embody.  We can easily convert Energy to Gravity to create leverage, then change the weight generated back to Energy in a single Breath...  In fact, I think this is the whole purpose of Breathing...&#xD;
&#xD;
I did not mean for this to become a physics lesson, or even a meta-physical one, but it seems we all learn when we just let go and let Flow.  I do mean this to be a Prayer.  For the Singularity within All, and the Infinite Energy within each of you.  This is where we must reside, in the Center of the Merry-Go-Round...otherwise we will feel the G-Force of acceleration and get FLUNG off the Ride.  So...let's get further inside, and drive this Spinning Space-Ship from the CORE of our Sacred Ore, recognizing our greatest strengths and wealth, and start Giving THAT to each other.&#xD;
&#xD;
...And every once in a while, when you're feeling too much Mass, too much Gravity...just stop.  Get still. Quiet everything.  Close your eyes.  Breathe...&#xD;
&#xD;
Dissolve all that Mass in your Liquid Light, and feel it bloom into Energy.&#xD;
&#xD;

Blessed Be&#xD;

    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;Why do we fall?&#xD;
Maybe we've stood too long&#xD;
And miss the Heart&#xD;
Of Rebirth&#xD;
&#xD;
...&#xD;
&#xD;
Nut Brown Ale lingers on my tongue&#xD;
After a day...glorious and deafeningly quiet&#xD;
Somewhere in the lines between work&#xD;
Lethargy...and Peace&#xD;
&#xD;
When you spend every day dedicated...&#xD;
Driving from the beginning till the breaking&#xD;
Maintaining the tightly tuned focus&#xD;
Necessary for Global coordination&#xD;
&#xD;
What do you do with a day for you?&#xD;
&#xD;
Wanderlust or wander Lost&#xD;
I ponder my past and dangle on the edge&#xD;
Projects almost begun and work shunned&#xD;
Constantly redelivering myself from myself&#xD;
&#xD;
I'm sure this is how I felt in Heaven&#xD;
And the millenia of inconcievable Blessings&#xD;
Spent in the systems of the Galactic Council&#xD;
After the last twenty-six thousand year turning&#xD;
&#xD;
Will I ever be content with Eternal Balance&#xD;
Or will I dive into the fires of Hell again&#xD;
Wings outstretched and Sword Blazing&#xD;
To meet the challenge and spark Transformation&#xD;
&#xD;
I am also reminded of God Realization&#xD;
Knowing in the space of Infinite Knowledge&#xD;
Eternal Power and Consuming Bliss&#xD;
That I will not choose to stay there...&#xD;
&#xD;
I must go back, be Born Again&#xD;
To weakness and limitation&#xD;
Forging further my myriad Bodies&#xD;
In the Art of Awakening Souls&#xD;
&#xD;
Aggh, let me but jest at myself&#xD;
And take another swig of me Ale&#xD;
For tis a dance of the few in reckoning...&#xD;
What sane Soul seeks a Hell to grow Heavens?&#xD;
&#xD;
Well, there's time yet to this Trial&#xD;
And perhaps my Suit will change...&#xD;
But today I complete another orbit of the Sun&#xD;
And I still draw the King of Spades&#xD;

    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;Somehow&#xD;
These gentle memories&#xD;
Cascade back to me&#xD;
One by one&#xD;
Pearls&#xD;
&#xD;
I find My Self&#xD;
Reconfigured and Reformed&#xD;
Cradled in the Water-Fire storms&#xD;
Stretching new wings in dreams&#xD;
Riding the streams&#xD;
Calling Springs&#xD;
&#xD;
Tickled as they grow&#xD;
From deep beneath the winter flow&#xD;
My memes seem to know this dance&#xD;
Growing vines of a Divine Romance&#xD;
That I slowly fold into&#xD;
My mind the tail&#xD;
In You&#xD;
&#xD;
This is no game of chase&#xD;
I swam these waters in my place&#xD;
Dreaming the World anew&#xD;
Cracking the Egg of One&#xD;
To Become Two&#xD;
&#xD;
At times it all seems turbulent&#xD;
But each reflection is Heaven's scent&#xD;
Each confection of my direction meant&#xD;
To assimiliate my full extent&#xD;
Like a Heaven Bent&#xD;
Hierophant&#xD;
&#xD;
Some say there are no Heroes&#xD;
But something deep within me Knows&#xD;
That when the Gateways come and go&#xD;
Someone has to show the Way&#xD;
Whether etched in Hieroglyphs&#xD;
Or taught in work and play&#xD;
&#xD;
The time has come&#xD;
An Egg is laid&#xD;
My heart unfolds&#xD;
The secrets fade&#xD;
&#xD;
My children drift away&#xD;
Memories to return someday&#xD;
Somehow the path is the same&#xD;
Magnified in Vision's name&#xD;
The thousand eyes&#xD;
Can cast no blame&#xD;
&#xD;
For deep within&#xD;
The roiling change&#xD;
Lies a Sacred Flame&#xD;

      <description>&lt;a href="http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/23d41138-11c2-44d2-97a6-20aa7bbe9788"&gt;  						          &lt;img class=" picThumb" src="http://images.tribe.net/tribe/upload/photo/d7f/f05/d7ff05eb-e449-4df6-b713-00ab53bdd550.thumb" width="65" height="48" alt="" /&gt;
    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;ARTHRITIS: A daily serving of fresh fish or fish oil capsules helps to give relief of arthritis and other joint pains. _3-4 walnuts eaten daily, on an empty stomach, will help. __&#xD;
&#xD;
ASTHMA: Mix 1 tsp. honey with 1/2 tsp. cinnamon and take it at night before going to bed. Avoid taking aspirin, as this may invoke an asthma attack. __&#xD;
&#xD;
BLADDER INFECTION: Take a bag of fresh or frozen cranberries and boil them in water (they will fall apart). Cool and drink. Don't add sugar! This remedy is also useful for people with kidney problems. __&#xD;
&#xD;
BLADDER STONES: Boil 2 figs in 1 cup of water. Drink daily for a month. __&#xD;
&#xD;
BRUISES: Slice a raw onion and place over the bruise. Do not apply this to broken skin. __&#xD;
&#xD;
COLD AND FLU: Here is a delicious recipe for a cold and flu soup: Sauté 6 crushed cloves of garlic in 1 tsp. vegetable oil until golden. Pour in a quart of beef or chicken stock and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and whisk in 2 egg whites. Beat together 2 egg yolks and 2 Tbls. distilled white vinegar; pour this mixture into the soup. Season with salt and pepper and top with croutons, if desired. __&#xD;
&#xD;
COUGHS AND ASTHMA: Steep 3-4 cloves of garlic in a cool, dark place for 2 weeks. Use several drops at a time, several times a day for coughs or asthma. Garlic is an exceptional cleanser for the body and has antimicrobial action similar to other antibiotics. __&#xD;
&#xD;
DANDRUFF: Pour distilled white vinegar onto the hair, as close to the scalp as you can manage; massage into the scalp; and allow to dry for several minutes before washing as usual. Repeat daily until the dandruff disappears, usually within a few days. __&#xD;
&#xD;
DRY SKIN: Combine 1 cup oatmeal, 1 cup warm water, 1 Tbls. vanilla extract, and 1/2 cup baking soda in a blender or food processor until you have a smooth paste. Pour this paste under the running water while drawing the bath. Very soothing to dry, itchy skin. __&#xD;
&#xD;
EARACHE: Steep 1-2 tsp. chamomile flowers in boiling water for 10-15 minutes. Strain out the water, and apply the hot flowers in a cloth for alleviation of the earache. __&#xD;
&#xD;
ECZEMA: Rub a whole nutmeg against a smooth stone slab with a little water and make a paste. Apply on affected parts. __&#xD;
&#xD;
FATIGUE: Take a glass of grapefruit and lemon juice in equal parts to dispel fatigue and general tiredness after a day's work. __&#xD;
&#xD;
HAY FEVER: Steep 1 tsp. fenugreek seed in 1 cup water, covered, for 10 minutes. Drink 1 cup a day to help hay fever symptoms. __&#xD;
&#xD;
HEADACHE: Eat 10-12 almonds, the equivalent of two aspirins, for a migraine headache. Almonds are far less likely to upset the stomach. __&#xD;
&#xD;
INSECT BITES: Mix water with cornstarch into a paste and apply. This is effective in drawing out the poisons of most insect bites and is also an effective remedy for diaper rash. __&#xD;
&#xD;
MORNING SICKNESS: Mix 1 tsp. each fresh juice of mint and lime, and 1 Tbls. honey. Take 3 times a day. __&#xD;
&#xD;
MUSCLE CRAMPS: Apply clove oil on the affected body parts. __&#xD;
&#xD;
NAUSEA: Boil 1/2 cup of rice in 1 cup of water for about 10-20 minutes. After it is boiled, drain the water into a cup and sip at the rice water until symptoms are gone. __&#xD;
&#xD;
OVERWEIGHT: Effective at getting rid of fat, drink up to 3 cups of green tea daily. Regular tea can also be used with a lesser effect. __&#xD;
&#xD;
PAIN RELIEVER: Mix 3 Tbls. of honey in boiled water and drink. Honey has natural pain-relieving powers. __&#xD;
&#xD;
SORE THROAT: Mix 1 tsp. lime juice and 1 Tbls. honey. Swallow tiny amounts slowly 2-3 times a day. __&#xD;
&#xD;
SPLINTERS: Lay scotch tape over the splinter and pull off. __&#xD;
&#xD;
STOMACH ACHE: A simple cure for a stomachache is to dissolve 1 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon in 1 cup warm water, cover and let sit for 15 minutes, then drink it like tea. This remedy can also ease diarrhea and flatulence. __&#xD;
&#xD;
STOMACH ACIDITY: Drink coconut water 3-4 times a day. Have a plateful of watermelon and/or cucumber every hour. __&#xD;
&#xD;
TOOTHACHE &amp;amp; MOUTH PAIN: To ease toothache or other mouth pain, make a tea by boiling 1 Tbls. fresh peppermint in 1 cup water and adding a little salt. Peppermint is an antiseptic and contains menthol, which relieves pain when applied to skin surfaces. __&#xD;
&#xD;
VARICOSE VEINS: Take 2-3 tsp. black strap molasses orally daily. This also treats all kinds of circulatory ailments. Capsaicin, the primary ingredient in hot peppers works well for thinning blood, and reducing inflammation. It comes in capsules, or you can do it the old fashioned way, and eat hot peppers. __&#xD;
&#xD;
VOMITING AND NAUSEA: Sucking a piece of ice controls vomiting. Eat 1/2 tsp. ground cumin seeds. Cinnamon and sliced ginger work by interrupting nausea signals sent from the stomach to the brain. If you are an herbal tea drinker, simply sprinkle cinnamon on the tea and drink. To make ginger tea, simmer a few slices of ginger in hot tea water. __&#xD;
&#xD;
WARTS: Try taping a slice of garlic to the wart. Be sure to first protect the surrounding skin with petroleum jelly. __&#xD;
&#xD;
WRINKLES &amp;amp; SKIN FRESHENER: Combine 2 Tbls. vodka, 1 Tbls. fennel seeds, and 1 1/2 tsp. honey. Stir well and allow to sit for 3 days. Strain mixture. Use full strength or add 2 Tbls. water to dilute. Use a cotton ball to apply to face as a toner. Apply coconut oil on the portions of skin and face where wrinkles set in and gently massage every night at bed time. __&#xD;
&#xD;
YELLOW TEETH: Mix salt with finely powdered rind of lime. Use this as toothpowder frequently. _&#xD;

    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;After many years of being forged in fires that burned me so badly, when all I wanted was to escape and free myself from the torture of death, one unfailing Truth emerged.  When I was in so much pain I had nothing left, and was more than willing to die in that moment, something happened.  I embraced it.  I dove further and further in, opened my self to the pain, called for the death, asked for it with all my will and force and anger.  Suddenly I realized that I actually had nothing, that I was nothing, and yet there was still SOMETHING inside of me.  There was a fire that could not be quenched; a light that could not be put out.&#xD;
&#xD;
Once, that Light was Strength, that when all my armor was gone, I had Nothing Left to fear.&#xD;
&#xD;
Once, that Light was Love, that when all my connections are broken, I am with Everything.&#xD;
&#xD;
Once, that Light was Truth, that when all the walls fall down, you can See Forever.&#xD;
&#xD;
Always, the turning point came when I finally stopped resisting my destruction, resising the pain, and started running towards it with everything I had.  Now, when I start to fall, I dive faster than the fall and my wings catch new wind.  When the tsunami is coming, I start swimming out to surf, riding the water as it is sucked from the reef.&#xD;
&#xD;
In this night approaching, the Gates of Transformation will be swung wide open.  Will you enter, with your teeth bared (in a grin), sword in hand (holding Truth), and chalice in the other (remembering Love)?  Or will you run from the barbed gate, and be caught by the brambles that close around you, forcing you closer to the precipice?&#xD;
&#xD;
Either way, my Heart goes with you on this Sacred Samhain.&#xD;
&#xD;
Be Blessed.&#xD;

      <title>Unified Dimensional Harmonic Matrix</title>

      <description>&lt;a href="http://people.tribe.net/adamapollo/blog/fb7a0ee6-c768-41df-b3c3-530f3dbd4f17"&gt;  						          &lt;img class=" picThumb" src="http://images.tribe.net/tribe/upload/photo/443/13e/44313e9d-c231-4078-9845-ce8a7b2a9956.thumb" width="65" height="63" alt="" /&gt;
    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;When I was 15, I had a vision that began as a single Eye, then spread to see the full interconnections of the body, land, continent, Earth, Earth-Moon Orbit, Solar-System, Galaxy, Galactic Cluster, Universe, then almost infinite Universes forming threads of energy weaving a stable waveform structure, this structure growing to have rotation and spin creating a stable sphere, this sphere (Quark) dancing with two others forming a Proton, protons and neutrons clustered in the nucleus of an Atom, Atoms forming Molecules, Molecules aligning into strands of DNA, Chromosomes, a Cell Nucleus, a Cell, Tissues, and finally, an Eye.&#xD;
&#xD;
After deeply exploring this vision, facet by facet, I ended up doing my Senior Project in High-School on "The Fusion of Science and Spirituality through Unified Field Theoretics."  The posters and collages I created to explain aspects of String Theory, General and Special Relativity, and my ideas of Dimensional Harmonics fell apart in short order.  After a while, I started creating digital collages representing each layer of my presentation, which eventually manifested into this set you see here.&#xD;
&#xD;
The newest addition are the Vibrational Fields, mapping every line connection between the points of the Geometry of the Chakras.  As you can see, there is a massive amount of 3D information in these 2D structures, which is part of the foundation of my theory.  If 3D information can be resident in a 2D structure, 4D, 5D, and higher dimensional energy and information can also become present in a 3D, or even 2D structure.  This is the key to Zero-Point Energy, creating Gravitational Envelopes for travel without accelleration (Zero-Point Gravity), and also Molecular Realignment systems which would allow the fundamental atomic structures of objects to be rearranged through focused Vibrational Matrices.  Most of my revelations concerning these technologies became confirmed realities when I started to study Loop Quantum Gravity, the real Holographic Theory (much more than what you commonly hear about), and theories of the fundamental structure of Space-Time.&#xD;
&#xD;
Each of these are also tools for mediation, and linking the body to the natural Universal Harmonics of existence.  Each layer represents a Chakra, a level of Consciousness, and a Dimension of the Universe.  There is much more than can be mapped here, but I will provide more as I have the time to make it graphically available in easy to absorb formats.  &#xD;
&#xD;
The text along the bottom is simply references to aspects of different areas of study that relate to these harmonics and layers of the Universe.  There are plenty of other key-words, and you can even fill in your own, but these are intended to be a starting point.  &#xD;
&#xD;
Feel free to send me questions, and Trust that more information will be coming soon...  Feel free to share this, but please do not cut off the text at the top or bottom.  This is over 10 years of my work!  Thank you!&#xD;

Aloha Ke Akua&#xD;
