How the Atlas Network is shaping your life, even if you've never heard of it

 https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-01-26/atlas-network-mont-pelerin-society-neoliberal-think-tanks/105700628

It’s called picking up the bullshit stick and walking with it or the old Jedi mind f**k. The ordinary citizens of the world were never in the position to influence anyone, and certainly not politicians, the clergy or anyone else of influence. This is a rich man’s creation just like communism is, be wary of anything with “ism” attached to it because it’s all the same poo and a different shovel. It’s all about power over the masses and manipulating the minds of idiots in powerful positions like politics, business and education, who also have a desire to manipulate and control people. Look how easily Karl Marx impressed politicians in the UK and the US. Too easy because they are no rocket scientists, just a collective of cunning rats out to look after themselves at the expense of humanity. 

Talk about using the dripper method to get into the psyche of would be intellectuals, this is appealing to their ego’s so of course they will lap it up. They don’t want to look foolish or ignorant when someone smarter comes along and blows smoke in their faces, so they get onboard with it. Power baby, power! 

These individuals don’t like to be criticised or told they are wrong or they have a total meltdown. This whole thing is a narcissistic obsession and highly toxic. It’s even better when you can peddle an ideology and get paid for it by the tax payers, so why wouldn’t they exploit fools.

To be honest I just can’t understand why people can’t see this, well actually they don’t want to see it, because it makes them uncomfortable and they may be ignored by their friends and colleagues if they discuss such things. Yet they are happy with their child changing gender, just like domestic violence was acceptable in the past and still is with some people. This world is the devils playground after all and nobody wants to change that.

Wes Penre: Q AND A SESSION 2, 2026

 https://wespenrevideos.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Q-A-Session-2-2026.pdf

I printed off the entire works of Wes’s writings so I have the complete 6th  level of learning which is a full ream of photo copying paper (500 pages). Wes did advise everyone to make copies of his work just in case it was taken down by someone. He was very serious about this and has had numerous cyber attacks on his website and his YouTube channel pulled many times. At least now people can buy his works on Amazon, either the paper format or digital. Paper can last forever but not digital. What happens if there is a national, regional or world wide cyber attack and you can’t use the internet? Factor this in because that time will come for many people, if you look at the war in Ukraine. Many people are without electricity and water because the Russians are bombing the power stations and utilities. If you don’t think it can happen where you live one day, you’re living in a dream world. Utilities are one of the first things to be attacked in a country where there is conflict along with water. People forget this was done in the war in Iraq multiple times by the US. 

Re Q1, I totally agree with Wes, there are mechanisms in place to prevent us from leaving, not just our chakra system that anchors us into this reality but also an anchor to stop us suiciding. Yes, some people are still able to do that, but they have exit points in their astrological chart that shows where it is possible. We don’t know why this is though. I was told many years ago by a spiritual teacher that people who have a history of suicide in many lifetimes have a mechanism that deeply anchors them into this reality to prevent them suiciding again. She never explained what that was though and probably didn’t know herself. The reason being is humans are prevented from knowing what is really going on with the spirit world and how it really works. We have every right to know because it affects all of us, but knowledge is power so it’s withheld. 

Re Q2, These ascended masters, Wes has previously said they were inside the matrix and that implies within the 7 astral levels or dimensions. How do we know if all of this is factual, how does Wes know there are ascended masters out side of the 7 dimensions? I am hesitant about this to be honest I will keep an open mind and see what happens at the end of my life in this reality. It’s very judgmental and who gives these beings the right to judge us? They probably have never been through the suffering that many humans have been through over multiple lives. The trauma from all those lifetimes is still there on the akashic records. We would not be allowed to see or know if these ascended masters have akashic records themselves and if so, what experiences did they have. To me this still doesn’t give them the right to rule over us like gods. That to me still feels like a form of  a matrix construct. I understand the need to keep violence out of the Orion system but how do we know if there is or isn’t any violence there? 

We are only getting limited information here that cannot be corroborated. How much of what Wes says is influenced by his previous experience with Scientology? He says he broke away from Scientology, but surely it would have left some beliefs that still resonate with him? Religious beliefs are very hard to shake off. No disrespect to Wes, I am just pondering this information. I do have great respect and adoration for his work. 

I myself repeatedly tell you that I am not an expert on anything but simply a way shower. I read things and share with others, but it’s up to the individual what they wish to accept or dismiss. We have the right to change our opinions too. Just keep an open mind and when in doubt sit on the fence, that’s all anyone can do without any firm understanding in anything.

My heart goes out to all those who lost their lives in Bondi and to their loved ones who have lost their dear ones.

I pray that we never see another atrocity like this in Australia, let people be, let us all live in peace and harmony. 

Miss Ruby has serious health problems at present

 Poor Ruby has been having health problems since just before Christmas time, including a tumour on her body which has been bleeding profusely two days before Christmas. The Christmas holiday season has impacted her being able to see her vet, who is on leave at present. Thankfully there is a stand in vet that will see her tomorrow morning. 

I don’t hold out much hope given her symptoms which I am not disclosing here. To say we are heartbroken is an understatement, she is the most beautiful and loving little girl and a huge part of our lives. She is lucky to make it to almost 15 years old, that’s good going for a Jack Russell. 

Update: 22/1/26 Awaiting blood tests for Miss Ruby, on a good note, as we were talking to the vet I could see green and yellow in Ruby’s aura which is good. That means she is very loving, loves people and very intelligent. It also tells me she is happy, that is a very positive sign for me.

I can’t thank the people responsible for this enough for sharing this information. It is very helpful for people that love crystals and to improve their knowledge of crystals. 

Starting the year with laughter

 

Tarot Card of the Month: February 2026, The Fool

 

As the new year finally kicks in and we are over the silly season, February gets right down to business.

New beginnings, new opportunities, fun and spontaneity are highlighted. In this card we see a bright sunny sky takes up most of the card, but don't let that fool you. The sun being a great luminary shines the light on everything including deceptions so pay attention. 

The young man in the card is seen wandering aimlessly with his head in the clouds daydreaming. At his heel his dog is barking to warn him of clear and present danger in front of him. In his mind the young man is thinking, how great am I. Not for much longer if he doesn't snap out of it and heed the warning of the cliff edge in front of him, one more step and it's goodnight Gracie. Naivety is something to avoid for February if one know what's good for one. 

This is a warning to world leaders to think first and act later, heed the warning and read the signs because they are well lit up for all to see. There is no excuse for stupidity, naivety or the ego. Lives are at stake here and arrogance is unbecoming in any world leader, politician or anyone in authority. Solid foundations we do not have, as the sands keep shifting. 

Greenland is one headache that could be avoided if this gets out of hand this cannot be undone. I feel that in his need for power; President Trump may seriously damage US relations with Europe and NATO for a very long time or beyond repair. There is without a doubt a rift open between the US and Europe, and the US will be on their own politically. Warnings ignored and friendships suspended over greed for mineral resources. This does not align with long term loyal allies, it's America first baby and sod everyone else. This is not the fault of ordinary American citizens, as we all know the general public of any nation never get any real say in their own lives when it comes to politics. We must not be antagonistic towards each other, live and let live. 

Iran shall still be on the brink of regime change and to US interests yet again, but this does not help the people of Iran as 1979 repeats itself. But this is a very long history going back to the discovery of oil in Iran and a quest to secure and control the oil at all costs. Regime change is imminent, but this does not change the lives of the Iranian people much, its same horse different jockey. Keep in mind this is a number 1 year and the year of the fire horse so expect Iran to have a new leader soon.  

February is a critical month of illusion and deception, as this is the influence of Neptune, which governs this card. Pisces ruled by Neptune is also the ruler of  half of February too. So we have the tail end of Aquarius/Uranus (sudden and unexpected and often violent/ humanitarian and the freedom urge) and the head of Pisces/Neptune influencing the month too. Think humanitarianism meets the old Jedi mind trick of deception and illusion. Neptune not only covers lying to others but believing your own lies too. 

Petty jealousies, drama and severe weather are also indicated for February. No changes in Gaza or Ukraine.

Infrastructure will also be in the spotlight this month as will the economy, crime and violence, government news (this includes military/defence) politics and the CSIRO in Australia, mainly to do with agriculture. 

Mr Albanese will feel the sands shifting under his feet, as he faces more criticism due to his poor leadership and inaction in critical decision making. He must learn to listen more and take advice from those that know better than him. It's a poor leader that fails to listen and take advice and act on that advice.  History will not be kind to Mr Albanese, he would be well advised to take advice on national security, prevention of terrorism, radicalism of any sort, public safety and foreign  interference in Australian politics. 

There is joy and spontaneity indicated; however one must keep one's eyes open and stay alert because one may quite easily fall under the dangerous illusion of safety with this deceptive Neptune (including Pluto and Mars) energy around.   Always factor into any reading/ prediction the fact that Pluto is going to be in Aquarius until 2044. So; the key word is safety and especially around water and travelling, particularly overseas travel. Pay attention to  travel warnings because they are not given out lightly.

We all know the world is a very dangerous place right now, so use your brains and heed the warnings. Your irresponsible actions don't just affect you, they affect those around and close to you. They also affect a person trying to rescue you, especially in a life threatening situation that could have been avoided. That rescuer has a life and a family to that is affected by the flow on effects of your actions.

So please think about that, people must stop having an entitled attitude of I can go wherever I want to. That comes from a position of ego. Remember this phrase, Test the assumption, then take not of the results. 

Water and ice cold conditions in the northern hemisphere, take extra care due to the high risk of accidents and adverse weather conditions.

People need to keep their emotions under control and avoid conflict this month. There is also an upsurge in people consulting astrologers and psychics, wanting assurance of safety and worrying about the future.

The element of air is inspiring thinking and deep reflection, meditation is highly beneficial here. Especially for grounding and connecting to others. Keep focus on humanitarianism, but please be aware that there are others with political agendas and political ideologies that are interfering here for evil agendas. Be very mindful of deception being used as a spiritual weapon of mass illusion and deception, which is governed by Neptune/ Pisces (rules spirituality and religion). This is not in humanities interest one bit, it is only for political indoctrination and control of your mind. Neptune is also the ruler of liars and deceivers, spirituality has no place in politics or ideologies. 

Please stay safe and look after yourselves and loved ones including your fur babies.

Warm and fuzzy hugs

Alex

UPDATE : I ran on the brink of regime change as predicted back in April 2025

From April 2025 tarot card of the month 

https://psychictarotreadingwithalexfulford.blogspot.com/2025/03/tarot-card-of-month-april-2025-knight.html

Crystals and essential oils for protection

 A lot of people feel the need right now for spiritual protection but may not know how to go about it. Most importantly setting boundaries around themselves and their homes to ward off negative energy from toxic people or from psychic attacks and energy vampires is a must do. 

There are plenty crystals, herbs and essential oils that can be used to evoke positive energies, block negative energies and even assist in unblocking your chakras. 

With crystals, to start with I recommend buying a one or two large (10 to 14 cm in diameter) selenite charging plates, especially if like me you have a lot of crystals.These are used to cleanse and recharge crystals. Selenite is a high power crystal which is self cleaning and never needs to be charged. There are cautions though, never allow it to get wet or it will be damaged permanently. This is a soft crystal of only 2 on the  Mohs scale, so handle with care. Pick a room to keep your selenite charging plates and leave them there. Put your crystals on the plate to clean and reenergise them, which can be from 3 hours up to 24 hours. This includes crystal jewellery such as rings, pendants, bracelets earrings, chip necklaces and bracelets. 

Some people say don’t put hematite on the selenite though or you can lose the energy of the hematite, it’s best to charge in the moonlight. There are a few conflicting recommendations as to the right way to charge or clean hematite, so you will need to work that out for yourself. When unsure google what crystals should and should not be cleansed or changed in whatever manner. There are variations and some people have strong opinions on the subject. Don’t trust AI overview either because it can and does contradict itself often. 

Kyanite and Citrine never need cleaning or charging either. Soft crystals can be smudged with Sage, Palo Santo or Cedarwood incense sticks. Generally you only need to smudge these crystals for 30 to 60 seconds if you do smudge them. 

Never put opposing crystals together on a charging plate either, calming crystals versus energising crystals is not a good mix and you can lose the powerful energy from your crystals. Angelite must never get wet either or it can dissolve like selenite and hematite. Keep them away from your kitchen and bathroom. 

Essential oils for protecting and cleansing 

The following help you with setting boundaries, learn to say No, But you must learn to change the subject if it’s triggering or highly sensitive. Keep away from people who are chronically complaining too as they will drain your energy and bring you down. 

Thyme, Juniper, Palo Santo, Cedarwood, Tee Tree, Laurel Leaf, Blood Orange.

Other oils and herbs are, Lavender, Rosemary, Frankincense, Lemon, Eucalyptus, Bergamot, Ylang Ylang.

Rosemary clears and shields, Frankincense and Tee Tree clean and protect, and good old Eucalyptus cleans and uplifts. By the way Australian Aboriginal peoples use Eucalyptus leaves for smudging or smoking ceremonies to ward off evil spirits and cleanse the environment for spiritual purposes and protection. 

Do look up the spiritual uses for each essential oil online to work out what ones you need. 

Crystals 

Black Obsidian (used for shielding, powerful psychic protection, clearing negative psychic energy and energy attachments, ), Selenite towers and generators (purification and protection, improves intuition, clears blocked energy), Amethyst (psychic protection), Lapis Lazuli (opening the third eye, stimulating the higher mind, ) Angelite (calming, boosting psychic abilities, enhancing spirit communication, activates the third eye, throat chakra and crown chakra), Black Tourmaline(repels negative energy) Lepidolite( contains Lithium, calming, healing, balances the third eye and heart chakras, psychic awareness ),  Labradorite (protection from psychic attacks, grounding , connections to spirit world , intuition, transformative energy )Rose Quartz ( healing, loving energy , ) Smokey Quartz (grounding, helps with fear, anxiety, cleansing and protection), Shungite(protection, grounding, purification, emotional stability), Moonstone. (Improves intuition and psychic abilities, clairvoyance), Aventurine ( helps the thymus gland, the nervous system, mental clarity)Black Onyx (releases blocked energy and removes toxic energy) 

Meditation (grounding, gold, white light protection) 

This is very important and I can’t stress this enough, simple and effective meditation exercises that only take minutes to do. Setting the intention is number one, not just with the meditation but with the crystals cleansing and charging or energising, the use of herbs for smudging AKA smoking and the essential oil uses. These all must have sincere intentions, your thoughts are powerful and must be taken seriously when working with these tools. Otherwise you are wasting your time, and if someone is actually directing negative thoughts as in a psychic attack at you, then you need to be able to stop them in their tracks quickly. 

Sometimes you may need to do a thorough smudging throughout your house or even your body to remove heavy energy. There  are also space clearing essences available to mist yourself and your house. I prefer the Australian Bush Flower Essence , Space Clearing Essence.  Occasionally a house may need both smudging and a space clearing essences. That would be highly recommended if you move into a rental property, giving you a nice fresh start in your new home. You need to open up the windows and doors if you are smudging the house because it is very smoky. 

New comers to this area will realise there is a lot to learn about energy clearing and reenergising. When smudging for instance, you need a dish or a good sized Abalone shell to use your smudge stick. Some people put a layer of sand in the shell to extinguish the smudge stick, others prefer salt, especially Himalayan salt or Sea Salt rocks. I use Sea Salt rocks. Then an Eagle feather to waft the smoke around the body and aura to cleanse and protect. The same is done in a house or building, going room to room and going around the corners, windows and doors. Not forgetting mirrors, tv screens and computer monitors. 

For energy or spiritual protection such as putting up a defensive shield around yourself or your loved ones, this is a meditation. Which is best to start with gold light protection around your entire body and aura. You may also want to gold light your home, a room, your car, your workplace. Again it’s by intention that makes this work, this is energy in motion and is thought reactive. You don’t need to be physically present in the area that you are gold lighting because you are working with thought forms. You visualise the place you want to protect and do the meditation exercise. Spiritual or psychic protection has been around for thousands of years around the world. Different cultures have their own methods, but you need to pick what resonates with you. 

After this you must ground yourself, the golden grounding cord meditation (which is a yoga practice) is first,  followed by going down your chakras and grounding, I do this daily. If you are doing any spiritual activity you should gold light the room before and after meditation to close down the room or you can attract unwanted energy or entities. 

Next pick the crystals that you want to use and buy from a reputable dealer. Cleanse and energise them as soon as you get them and sit them where you need them. Heavy energy from absorbing negative energies means you must clean the crystals regularly, such as doing energy work which may be daily. If they are for occasional use then maybe monthly charging. Learn what crystals do and how to care for them. Not all crystals can be in sunlight or near salt, salty water or water as they can be damaged. Some crystals do not like smudging either, so some people do sound baths using Tibetan Singing Bowls. The energy from the bowls penetrates the crystals. 

Towers and generators are probably something that you should consider especially selenite and black tourmaline towers for protecting the energy in a room, you can place them in your bedroom, lounge room or office. It all depends on what you use them for. To keep the energy positive it’s a good idea to place one or two in your lounge room or family room along with rose quartz and amethyst geodes, you don’t need huge geodes though. Just something that you can lift and move easily, placing selenite next to it helps to clean and energise your amethyst. 

Some people like to make an energy grid using black tourmaline in the corners of a room and place a selenite tower in the middle of the room to counter negative energy. Again this depends on your lifestyle and what your intention is. Beneficial plants can be incorporated into your home to promote positive energies too. Some ideas are Ribbon or Spider plants, Pothos, Ivy leaf geraniums with the rose fragrance, Jade, Peace Lilies, Aloe Vera, Mother in Law’s Tongue. Most plants are highly beneficial although spiky plants are not usually used as they are a no-no in Feng Shui practices.  

The idea is to have a happy, healthy and peaceful environment and restful sleep at night. Thyme is also said to be put under the pillow to stop nightmares. 

As for wearing crystals there are many to choose from and their purposes. Wearing them on your left hand side or right hand side. This is to do with defending or receiving energy coming in to you or leaving you. The left hand is receiving energy and here one must be careful, is it negative energy sent to you or healing energy? This is the feminine and passive side of the body or Ying energy. 

Your right hand is the giving or Yang/male energy. If you are returning negative energies back to someone then you can put a Selenite and Black Tourmaline bracelet on your left wrist to protect yourself. You are sending the negative energy away from you. On the right wrist the same bracelet is taking in protective and cleansing energy if that is the intention you have set. An Amethyst bracelet on your left wrist helps open up your psychic powers, a Rose Quartz bracelet will help bring more loving and healing energy into your body. You need to shop by intent of purpose when choosing your crystal jewellery as well as the crystals you choose for your home. The standard crystals people buy are Clear Quartz, Amethyst, Rose Quartz and Smoky Quartz. But again there are many to choose from and they have multiple purposes. 

Some people like myself can hold their hand over a crystal and feel the energy coming from it. This is a way to work out which one you are attracted to. Sometimes you will automatically feel a strong pull to a particular crystal without knowing why. Trust that feeling because that is your body telling you that you need that crystal in particular.

GOLD LIGHT A ROOM 

https://psychictarotreadingwithalexfulford.blogspot.com/2021/02/how-to-gold-light-room.html

GOLD LIGHT YOURSELF , there are different ways to do this so go with what feels right for you and yes you may change that from time to time however it’s the sincere intention that makes this powerful the same as any form of spiritual protection. 

https://psychictarotreadingwithalexfulford.blogspot.com/2021/02/how-to-gold-light-yourself.html

GOLD LIGHT SOMEONE 

https://psychictarotreadingwithalexfulford.blogspot.com/2021/02/how-to-gold-light-someone.html

I do recommend buying The Crystal Bible by Judy Hall. Both volume 1 and 2mfor a basic go to book but also google the spiritual purpose of each crystal that you are interested in as there is so much information out there from various sources. Most importantly enjoy your crystals and attune to their energy. 

A link to places that I buy crystals from, you will find some good deals on these websites. 

https://psychictarotreadingwithalexfulford.blogspot.com/2024/12/jewelry-and-crystals.html

Always check the Mohs scale of hardness when dealing with crystals, so that you know how durable they are. https://www.gemrockauctions.com/learn/additional-gemstone-information/a-list-of-precious-and-semi-precious-gemstones-and-their-treatments

Wes Penre: Q and A Session 1 2026

 https://wespenrevideos.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Q-A-Session-1%5EJ-2026.pdf

The first Wes Penre Q and a for the year, and important if you are new to his work. 

Personally, I don’t watch these spiritual videos, and I am always skeptical of others, due to having seen some operators that leave a lot to be desired. I do my own thing as there so much garbage out there. What both Wes and this man Bashar do not mention is; when humans are incarcerated in physical bodies we are dead spiritually. This is a realm of death, it doesn’t get any lower than the third dimension other than the demonic second dimension or realm! We are cut off from pure source or pure spirit because this dimension is so heavy and dense. 

Those Ascended masters are archons, they do not have our best interests at heart as Wes often reminds us. Those humans that do supposedly end up working with these beings must follow the rules set out, yet the overlords break the rules constantly as Wes has often pointed out too. Do these ascended humans ever question what they are told? We have no real answers to that, and we know very little of what is happening in the spirit world because there are blocks in place to prevent us knowing. We get fed information to suit the agenda only. 

Not one spirit being or any being from the non physical world has ever seen god, nor do they know what he is or isn’t. There are many illusions, deceptions and manipulations going on that we are very confused and conflicted. What benevolent beings deliberately sow such deceptive and manipulative information? Believe me I have been involved with spiritual matters for many years, including childhood experiences, as mentioned on this blog. 

I also feel that a person or spirit who is inherently good is always good, however when they are in our world there are influences that do affect these individuals and depending on the individual’s astrology chart there are planets, asteroids etc as well as the aspects of their chart that affect the person’s thinking and actions. But with a strong sense of doing what is right they will generally live a good honest life with the odd little things that may be naughty.

One’s birth number and time of birth also affects these individuals individual as does their parents charts. There is so much that is packed into every single person on this earth that can literally make or break you. 

Karma, for a start is an artificial construct designed to enslave humanity so that we never get out of the spiritual debt. It’s fake 100% and I refuse to accept this BS. This is a world of lies and deception designed to harvest our spiritual energy or loosh. Most people are totally unaware of this and if they follow a religion or even atheist coming from a scientific mindset there is no way these people will ever entertain the possibility. Best thing to do is always be honest, tell the truth and shame the devil and you can't go wrong.

The golden grounding cord meditation mentioned is a good grounding technique, which I do every day along with gold lighting myself. Spiritual protection should never be underestimated.

Spend your time with those that that nourish and support you

You don’t need to be around people constantly, know that it’s ok to be alone, it’s ok to be you and not having to compromise who you are. Sometimes we must protect our energy from toxic people. 

Sometimes we just don’t fit in, but ask yourself do you need or really want to fit in with those that disrespect or ignore you?  What are you really getting from that group or society? If it causes pain then it’s not good or right for you. Walk away and find your own path. Yes, it may be quite, it may be lonely but, you are protecting yourself and your energy. There are other ways to find happiness and fulfilment. 

Fulfilment doesn’t always mean being popular. Happiness comes from within and not from the environment around you. Speak to your heart and ask your higher self to guide you to  achieve that happiness within. 

Spend time with animals and nature to learn inner calm. 

Know that your thoughts and feelings are valid and not to be traded to be accepted. 

Alex's 20th Anniversary today

Wow, Who would have thunk it, I have been reading the tarot for exactly 20 years today. I had no idea all those years ago when my first client came to see me, that this would turn out to be such a fantastic journey for me. I have read for some truly amazing people globally over all those years; and helped many on life's often difficult journey. 

I would humbly like to thank every single person that has chosen me to read their cards. It is a very personal thing to allow a stranger to look into your private life. The reader must have respect and great sensitivity when conducting a reading assuring absolute confidentiality. I am forever grateful and appreciative of my clients time and willingness to open their lives up to me for a brief  period of time.

I do hope that I have many more years to come and help many more people in my service to humanity.

 Thank you everyone

Easter Island has been a source of fascination since its discovery and with modern technology such as aerial photography and drones we get to see a bigger feel of the landscape and layout of the statues and quarries. An outdoor time capsule unravaged by time and the elements.

New Year Laughs 2025/26

 He who laughs last, laughs the longest! Well here we are on the last day of the year so I am squeezing a couple of laughs in at the last moment. I hope everyone has a wonderful New Year and stays safe. 

Know where your loved ones are if they are out celebrating, especially younger ones. They aren’t always going to be sensible, so make sure their phones are fully charged and they have money to get home etc. 

Thank You Everyone

I wish to thank everyone that had readings from me throughout 2025, and in fact the past now 20 years, I thank everyone that has followed my blog and reading my posts, psychic predictions and tarot card of the month. You mean the world to me and I appreciate every moment of your time. I appreciate the fact that people have allowed me the privilege of giving you a reading and clarity where needed. My service is only ever about you; the client and not about me.

Your higher-self guides you to me for a reason that only you can know. My job is to humbly do the best that I can to assist you in your quest for guidance and my service to humanity. You are the ruler of your own destiny and I pray that you find strength, grace and peace for 2026. 

Thank you from my heart to your heart

Lake George hides an earthquake fault zone, and scientists are using your road noise to see it

Very interesting information on Canberra region’s Lake George, which is famous as a disappearing lake. 

And haunted too, many people have had scary experiences driving by Lake George. 

I remember an earthquake tremor back in the early 2000’s. I thought it was a truck in the street, as we had a truck driver living up the street from us. I was reading in bed one summer night and I suddenly felt the rumble and never thought anything of it, until my husband came through and asked did I feel the earth tremor. 

Tinsel and Home Alone back in style as TikTok seeks comfort in #90sChristmas

I think most people would reminisce about their childhood Christmas experiences regardless of age or era. Decorations  from their parent’s  or grandparents homes are usually treasured memories, and many people may want to recreate that nostalgia. This is a personal thing, I know that I do, I loved my paternal grandmother’s Christmas decorations and the 1950’s and 60’s fairy lights that came in all sorts of different colours styles and each bulb was different. There was always the testing of the fairy lights every year too, and without fail one or two would have burned out. 

Then it was a rush to the shops to get replacements. Just one light bulb not working would cause the set of lights not to light up. There were Santa faces, churches, reindeers, bud shaped bulbs of various colours, swirl styles and much more. I loved these bulbs as they were so colourful and varied in style. The lit up the lounge room window which looked great from the street at nighttime. 

The wall decorations are not so good nowadays as the quality has diminished as well as the length of the decorations. Original store bought decorations were a colourful tissue paper type in a honeycomb design, that stretched across the room. They lasted much longer than the foil decorations. The individual paper ones such as bells , Santa, snowmen or stars were two or three times the size of that is in the shops today. Unless you were a child prior to 1980, you may not have seen these particular types. You can of course see them in vintage style magazines and antique magazines that show old photos of the old days. 

When I was getting married I came across some glass ornaments similar to some of my grandmother’s and just had to buy them. That was back in 1988, lol, back in the day when we actually had quality products, and I still have them to this day too. I also have a few from my parents and my husband’s parents. 

I must admit that I love the old Home Alone 1 and 2 movies and watch them every Christmas. Not to forget the Muppets Christmas Carol and Miracle on 34th Street. I even have DVD’s of the original Frosty the Snowman, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and old Christmas cartoons from the 1930’s. I still listen to the original Christmas music by Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra etc. These were a staple of my childhood Christmas memories and I introduced them to my children. I loved the old style fairy light bulbs and the smell of cigars at Christmas too, especially in Scottish winters as the air was cold and the aroma hung in the air. 

There is a special warmth from old memories, which are important in human memory and a foundation of our collective belonging and feelings as we grow up. Then we have our own children to share our experiences with as part of their family heritage. I don’t think the times are actually the reason for this resurgence, it’s cyclical and nostalgia. Without any experience from the past we have nothing to form a future no matter what the situation is. Humanity needs a history or past to make a future.
