True dat, ain’t no way that I am giving up chocolate. Just can’t take the risk.

Neurodiversity and Astrology
https://oxfordastrologer.com/2023/04/neurodiversity-and-astrology.html
I thought that this would be a good article to share with everyone and being slightly neurodiverse (ADD) myself …oh look a squirrel. I do like to save information of all kinds that is useful until I find a use for it. So I generally have interesting information stored all over the place, just waiting for it to come in handy. Virgo and Mercury and helpful Libra, I like to be useful and share information.

Atlantis awakening
Yesterday afternoon I was looking at my tarot cards for myself and as I tuned in to the cards, I heard a voice within me saying, “ Atlantis is awakening within you ”. I don’t think the Atlanteans were very moral people and that doesn’t sit well with me. I don’t know what to make of this message, but I definitely do not go in for any new age stuff. I am strictly spiritual in my own way.
What a weird thing to experience and just so surreal. This coming year for me is about spiritual transcendence on a personal level. Letting go of the past and opening up to a new experience. Where I go with that is unknown. I don’t generally go with the flow because I am a very cautious individual who doesn’t take risks. So for a change I am open to what the new year brings me on a spiritual and personal journey.
2025 is a year of transformation globally and affects everyone on the planet one way or another, especially those on a spiritual path.

A Common Sleeping Pill May Reduce The Buildup of Alzheimer's Proteins, Study Finds
As someone who suffers from insomnia this interests me. I do believe that we will have a significant breakthrough in this treatment in my lifetime. It may start by stripping something from the drug and using a combination treatment. I am only going from intuition here as I know absolutely nothing of medicine.
Long term medication does harm the liver, but it’s quality of life that matters.
The original light bulb moment, 124 years of continuous use
https://www.sciencealert.com/this-is-the-worlds-longest-burning-bulb-and-it-could-outlive-us-all
Wow, talk about a light bulb moment. In reality though, manufacturers don’t want light bulbs to last indefinitely or many years because they don’t make money if people don’t need to but them very often. So planned obsolescence is a must to keep the money flowing in. But how amazing is the little light bulb to survive 124 years of use. It has seen so much change in technology over the years and hopefully it will continue to function for many years to come. A great testament to its inventor, it makes me wonder how many bulbs were made at the time this one was made and how long they lasted.

50th Anniversary of Cyclone Tracy hitting Darwin
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclone_Tracy
Tomorrow morning at approximately 5.30am Australian EST, it will be 50 years since the terrible cyclone Tracy hit Darwin. I had just turned 11 years old at the time and new to Australia. I had no idea what a cyclone at first, and I had only been in the country for 13 months, so everything was new to me.
On Christmas morning my brother and I woke up and went to open our Christmas presents around 5.30 am, as kids do. We had our little transistor radios with us and were listening to the news when the cyclone was reported.
I remember the shock when hearing of the destruction and deaths. I felt so guilty because I was safe in my home opening up my Christmas presents, and other children and adults had lost everything. How could I get my head around this? It most certainly put an end to any happy Christmas for me when I knew what had happened, Darwin was flattened. I ran through to my parent’s bedroom and woke them up, to tell them what had happened. I don’t remember their response other than just being woken up after a few hours of sleep. I remember the song, Santa never made it to Darwin, which came out after the tragedy. It gave me the chills and I couldn’t listen to it without being very distressed.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Never_Made_It_into_Darwin
I will never forget this terrible day as long as I live, and all this week cyclone Tracy has been on my mind, not actually realising it’s now 50 years ago. But just a feeling of foreboding and worrying about a disaster happening on Christmas morning again was bothering me. Let’s hope that is not the case, it’s more likelihood that the energy of the event that is being picked up on and I being very sensitive to the energy.
W or upside down M on the Ace of Cups
The upside down M on the Ace of Cups is a mystery to most people, who usually look to the religious mythology, but what if that M is a W? As in the constellation of Cassiopeia. It’s a female image upside down in the northern hemisphere sky. That makes a lot of sense when one delves into the esoteric mysteries the RWS Deck are infused with deep symbolism.
There are 5 stars in the constellation of Cassiopeia that form a W or from the Southern Hemisphere it is an M. In mythology she is the queen Cassiopeia and the mother of Andromeda
A blurb on the myth of Queen Cassiopeia and Andromeda.
The Dove in the card can also represent a constellation called Columba not just the allegorical dove in biblical stories each image within a card is a symbol. There is much more to the images and mythology that is incorporated into the Tarot deck. Apart from the conventional Christian, Greek Mythology, the Tarot is infused with Astrology, Greek, Roman, ancient Egyptian, Mesopotamian and Persian mythology, Numerology, The Kabbalah, Ancient history and Astronomy. Then there is the language of colour symbolism. There are multiple layers of wisdom that are only imparted to certain metaphysicians that is carefully guarded and
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columba_(constellation)
I do feel there is a strong case for this being a hidden meaning that most Tarot readers have perhaps overlooked. My rule of thumb is always check the skies with myths and if I can't find anything that sounds right then I hold off. But the more I think, and rummage around online I find other things that make me think, oh wait; I need to make notes on such and such. We never stop learning when we step into the realms of the esoteric and metaphysics any you can never know enough no matter how long you have been a reader.
Five Christmas story elements that don’t appear in the Bible, from the little donkey to the inn keeper
Start looking for the answers in the night sky, it’s astrology pure and simple. The manger, the donkey, the cradle are all astronomical and astrological. It’s all mapped out and predates Jesus by thousands of years. The birth of Jesus is no different to other mythological and historical figures, and the narrative is repeated all around the world in many cultures.
The Beehive is also another name for the Manger which is connected to ancient Egypt is also in the night sky, it’s also the name for the New Zealand parliament building.
The donkey in the biblical stories is also astrological, sitting in the constellation of Cancer. It’s called Asellus Borealis which is next to Asellus Australis, both are known as the donkeys.

A little bit more information about the Corona Borealis. ⬇️
You will notice the mention of three Mary's in the Wikipedia page about the Belt of Orion The bible also mentions three Mary's. Jesus’s mother was a Mary as was one of his sisters, however that sister is the Mary Magdalene, and there is either a double up of her or a deliberate obfuscation of her role and identity. Not all researchers agree on this though. Jesus was an actual king historically speaking and Mary Magdalen ( Mary of the Towers more interesting connections with her in Europe including being alluded to in the fairy tale Rapunzel ) was his sister wife. The Jesus family had connections to ancient Iran, Parthea according to the writer Ralph Ellis, who has written extensively on the history of Jesus and his family bloodline. The books are available on Amazon. Raplh Ellis also informs us about Jesus being an Astrologer as well as a high ranking Freemason.
I am finding myself drawn to study this along with my astrology studies. It's a lot of fun when you delve into this and it's great to learn new things and it is so much better than sitting in front of the tv for me.
I am the sort of person that could happily divide my time between nature and a library and I just love to share information with likeminded people. As I come across more information I will update this and perhaps you may be curious about the amazing information. The power of the age of Aquarius is unfolding as we live and breathe and this is written in the stars.

Tarot Card Of The Month: January 2025, Knight of Wands
Insight, Quick action, Quick thinking, Travel Inspiration and foresight
Element: Fire
Zodiac Signs Aries, Leo and Sagittarius
Mars goes retrograde in January
Welcome to January 2025 Tarot card of the month and a brand new year.
January's energy is fast, enthusiastic and quick thinking mercurial energy combined with the element of fire and Aries energy, which is dynamic action. We see flashes of insight and communication to kick of the month. There is also explosive energy involved for January, I feel cold steel as in weapons here, this also covers naval vessels in the news. January has a strong military energy, as we know this is to be expected from here on in.
Trump hits the ground running and ideas may be only half formed. January's energy is all fired up, as they say and youth crime is highlighted. There are challenging aspects politically, in business and finance for January and communication needs to be addressed clearly.
Capricorn rules the start of January, and the ruling planet of Capricorn is Saturn, the teacher (restricting energy, its effects are slow and long lasting) discipline and leadership. There are two cardinal signs here which adds power to the mix Aries and Capricorn, so this is pointing to leadership issues.
Capricorn is the ruler of the 10th house of the zodiac, and 10th house is about your reputation and public life. Aquarius being the ruling sign for the second half of January and the ruling planet is Uranus, representing the freedom urge, which covers the future, yet the knight on the card is facing left which is looking to the past. So this is something from the past being brought into the current world circumstances. Which is a political issue returning to public awareness. I do feel that a challenge is being issued on a global leadership level. Aquarius is the ruler of the 11th house of the zodiac and is about friendships.
Military power as I said is part of the theme for January with Ukraine/Russia, Israel/Palestine, China/ Taiwan and the waters in Houthi conflict zones. The US will be up against anyone that doesn't agree with them. This includes faction fighting within the US government that strongly disagree with what is proposed.
Children are highlighted for January so please keep an eye on your children, especially for accidents, going missing, getting lost, youth violence and murders committed by youths. Keep an eye on children near water too. The energy of Uranus is sudden and unexpected (which can be violent) so please watch your children like a hawke including teenagers getting into danger. I also connect poverty and war this warning for children.
Angry young men are definitely highlighted with violence and murder, so you need to talk to your kids, it's too late when the police get involved. How to deal with violent youth will be covered by the media though I do not see a decent outcome to crime prevention and sensible sentencing for violent crime.
2025 is a transformative year in many ways, there is a strong spiritual and religious energy for the year ahead. Focus and forward thinking and action is a must to transform the world into a more positive place. That though will take many years to achieve.
The card shows a clear blue sky, no clouds or luminaries are present. This means no clouded thinking and the road ahead is clearly visible. There are disruptive energies afoot from the Eastern hemisphere to the Western hemisphere indicated. This is political and emotional energy which is a volatile combination and not what we need for communication and peaceful understanding. Please think things through very carefully and choose your words wisely because there is no room for error. Hot Mars energy is messing the communication channels.
Facts and only facts is the only way to examine all that takes place this month. There are deliberate destabilising attempts being employed with the deliberate attempt to sabotage hopes of peace.
Do not accept what is mere hearsay, especially in the media and even from the Trump camp. Political factions are keen on causing deliberate destabilisation to sow confusion among ordinary people to keep the masses divided. It is wise to sit back and wait for more information rather than react without the full facts and the truth.
Hearts and minds and being manipulated during January and people are being played for suckers. Hot fiery tempers are not helpful, they just add fuel to the fire. So leave well alone, step back and wait, you will be glad in the long run or you may just end up in court.
More protests are highlighted in January, again I stress people are being manipulated. Ask yourself who benefits from this disruptive behaviour? Look behind the smokescreen. Revelations will shock and astound so please be very careful.
Some people have a need for adventure in January, inspiring them to get outdoors and traveling. Mountain climbing may be popular though care must be taken for sudden changes in the weather like heavy snowfalls, strong winds, heavy rain etc. In Australia, or other hot countries factor in the heat affecting you and make sure you have plenty drinking water with you and block-out sun cream.You may find yourself trapped on a mountain, so check the weather beforehand and keep monitoring the weather while you are doing outdoor activities in the countryside. If possible carry a distress beacon and let your loved ones know exactly where you are going and when you expect to be home. Any delays, then phone and keep loved ones updated. Make sure that you have a full charge and phone credit too.
I wish everyone a safe and peaceful 2025
Blessings and warm and fuzzy hugs 🤗
Alex

Merry Christmas 2024
Wishing everyone a wonderful festive season and all the very best that life can bring to you in 2025. To me Christmas is about just being with those you love, whether it is family or those that we care about, animals included.
It's an opportunity to relax if possible and have some fun. It is also an opportunity to thank people for their hard work, service to others including postal workers, trades people and retailers, those that rescue and look after animals, charity workers and all of those amazing people that work tirelessly for others, including parents and carers. I thank you for your service.
Blessings and warm and fuzzy hugs

Selenite Crystal
Selenite is a great crystal and especially when it's a generator crystal. I keep one in my bedroom and one in my office. Some of the properties of the ethereal selenite are, removing toxic energy or blocking negative energy, blocking negative entities and psychic attacks especially when used with black tourmaline in energy grids. Cleansing the aura and balancing the chakras are part of its uses, as is enhancing one's psychic abilities and is used in healing work.
Selenite is good for preventing nightmares, calming the mind and de-stressing. It is very important in spiritual work, use Selenite for emotional healing, mental clarity and focus. Selenite is connected to the crown chakra and the 5 chakras above the crown chakra. A word of caution in regards to the 5 chakras above your crown chakra. the first three are safe to use however the 4th and 5th can be used for connecting and communicating with non terrestrial beings or alien beings. I am not in favour of communicating with such beings and I feel this is not a safe or healthy pursuit.
Caution should always be employed when dealing with the unseen world as carelessness can be very harmful to one's mental health. Do not mess with things you cannot control or understand, one should only communicate with one's higher self, anything or anyone communicating with you via meditation must go through your higher self as a safety filter. Even then it is up to your discernment as to whether to allow the communication. This beautiful crystal is have guardian to keep by your side in this activity and other powerful protective crystals.
I strongly recommend you use rose essential oil on your main chakras, wrists, both the palms and backs of your hands, on your ankles, the top of your feet and the souls of your feet when meditating, or doing any spiritual work because rose essential oil has a very high energy and is very good for spiritual connection and protection. Blue Idaho Spruce is the highest energy of all the essential oils but it may not be available as easily as Rose. Rose is my favourite due to the fragrance and its spiritual uses.
Use Selenite to cleanse and energise other crystals, it is a must have crystal in your crystal tool kit. It is a beautiful crystal just to own with is loving warmth, purity, ethereal power and appeal. Do not get Selenite wet as this will damage the crystal.
You will see a list of Australian crystal retailer websites on my blog under the headings of crystals and bling and crystals. Enjoy your crystals and their energies in your life.
Warm and fuzzy hugs, Alex
Miss Ruby's Doggie Advent Calendar And Spreading Her Love
I bought the first doggie advent calendar this year for Miss Ruby. I have just never been lucky enough to find them in the shops until this year. So every morning Ruby has her Schmacko treat when she wakes and an extra seasonal treat. I sit on the floor so that she can see the little doors being opened and sees the treat inside. She gives the calendar the vacuum cleaner sniff of sniffs to examine the calendar and wonders what it's all about. The problem is what happens the day after the treats are gone. Will she think she is being gypped out of treats? I can assure you she definitely is not lacking in treats and goodies, she is spoiled rotten every day.
Ruby wishes to send her seasons greetings to all fur babies around the world spreading her love. Ruby hopes one day that all animals (fur babies) of the world will have a better life and have equal rights enshrined by law globally to be free from hunger, sickness, homelessness and abuse, and that no animals ever suffer.

Find your mantra
Each person needs a good mantra to recite to themselves and to live by. To uplift themselves, restore their spiritual equilibrium and raise their spiritual energy or vibrational frequency. It’s not for others to benefit from, it is for you, because your soul needs nourishing. It is for you to ground yourself when life throws you a curve ball that pulls your heart and soul down.
We all know suffering, we all know loss, we all know what it is like to be disempowered, lonely, hurt, and alone even when we are living with our family members. We all know what it feels like when someone says hurtful and cruel words. Having a mantra to live by gives us that boost to lift ourselves up and keep going when we feel downtrodden, stressed and discouraged or disregarded.
Living with grace and inner peace, with detachment from negativity is a tonic that we need each day. Give yourself the gift of a mantra that stops the negativity in its tracks and empowers you like medicine. Giving you the power to face the day with detachment and humility.
It’s not easy by any means but with constant practice we can achieve the best possible results. Be your own spirit physician and uplift your soul.
Making your own mantra is important because it carries your unique spiritual energy or frequency, it’s meant for your use only.
Repeating a mantra three times is important and makes it powerful. The number three being significant in spiritual matters. It relates to wisdom, harmony and understanding. Not just that, it relates to the three levels of consciousness. Completeness, divine wholeness and perfection is another interpretation. The number three also represents spiritual guidance and protection. Rituals are said three times like the expression, third time’s the charm.

Clearing space on my iPad and came across this from 2022. Rather thought provoking and it reminds me of the ant people the native Americans people spoke of after the cataclysm. Our planet is full of underground tunnels that go right across the world from the Middle East to Europe for example.

The first Anniversary of my father's death
It a whole year today since I lost my father, it still feels so surreal to me. I vividly remember the phone call and what I was doing at the time. His passing was expected but still it is difficult when the moment arrives.
It's the anniversary of one of my favourite uncles too. My father's brother in law died in Scotland on the same day. I lost 3 uncles and my father all within 3 weeks and it was a rollercoaster of shock to me.
Memories are something that I have to treasure along with the laughs, we do have the same sense of humour which will always be a bond between us.

The Mother Crystal
I have never felt such a strong connection to a crystal like this before. I do feel the energy of a crystal when I put my hand close to it. This energy feels like a strong tingling sensation similar to when doing spiritual healing. So this is how I intuitively feel the right crystal for me, the energy frequencies are important when buying a crystal. So if you are able to feel the energy emitting from a crystals that is a great sign.

Home fragrances impact indoor air quality, and the health risks are alarming
A better option for fragrance is using an oil burner with essential oils and not a fragrant oil which is chemicals. I have used an oil burner since the 1990’s and the fragrance wafts through my house. I have one in my office and one in my kitchen and family room. Never leave an oil burner unattended for safety reasons especially if you have children or fur babies.
I do have some scented candles too though which I don’t use too often. I did invest in air purifiers 4years ago to help with health issues and they are running constantly. I highly recommend investing in good quality air purifiers if possible.
You can buy Frankincense and myrrh essential oils easily, these also help with spiritual cleansing. Cedar wood is a great essential oil to use at Christmas time it’s one of my most used oils. I use my oils for spiritual reasons mostly but I also use them for relaxing and promoting a calming environment. Please be very careful with using essential oils around pets because some are toxic to animals.
I only burn incense outside after a lady told me about how harmful it is to use indoors. So I am very careful with that. I like to burn incense at my back door and my front door creating a cleansing and spiritually uplifting environment.
I buy my essential oils from Essentials of Australia https://www.escentialsofaustralia.com/ the prices are fantastic and Max has good quality oils. I used to buy his oils when he lived in Canberra years ago. I recently reconnected with him thanks to John from Bonvale Connections when he retired as John had recommended him to his customers. Check out the prices of the oils and you will be delightfully surprised.

Wes Penre: Q and A Session # 1 December 2024
https://wespenrevideos.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/QA-Session-1-December-2024.pdf
I can’t say that I agree with Wes on who the ascended masters really are. Originally he said they were mostly archons and some humans. I sure as hell wouldn’t have anything to do with ascended masters, especially because they are under the control of beings that are no friends of humanity nor truly spiritual beings. Wes has said in the past, that humans have to adhere to En-Ki’s school of thought to ascend and that it was a sort of like a draconian system. There may well be some benevolent beings in the ranks, and they may or may not know what is really going on. Also Wes did tell us that these human ascended beings don’t get to stay permanently in the so called spirit realm, they do come back again to reincarnate. We have the right to refuse to reincarnate, it is not in our best interest to be in a physical form, because we are entombed in the flesh and our spirit is very suppressed as are our natural spiritual and psychic abilities.
Humanity has been deliberately put in to a living hell in the third dimension and this was not to benefit us from the beginning. The purpose being to traumatise us and harvest our loosh.
There is no way that a benevolent god would do such a terrible thing to humanity. I also feel that a good soul would always be a good soul, it is what is our core essence is after all.
Life on this earth can be very painful for those that are good because the people that are negative in their moral character sniff out anyone that is good or sensitive or different. They home in on them, bully and mistreat the innocent victims. Even children in primary schools are capable of sniffing out a vulnerable child and bully them mercilessly. This is because the core essence of the child is not good to begin with. Not all beings incarcerate from the “good” side of the spirit world. There are lower realms that we call the dark side, think about psychopaths and other dangerous people otherwise the world would not be the way it is. This is free will choices being made, to become a bad person is easy enough if the will is there.
As for psychic people, not all of us want to teach anything nor are we all wise and all knowing on spiritual matters. I don’t consider myself a teacher of anything, may be a sort of way shower or just someone that likes to share what I know. Not everything can or should be shared either. Because some people are not ready for spiritual wisdom. Some people may also use this spiritual knowledge in the wrong way and use it to manipulate and control others.

RIP Maggie Tabberer 1936 to 2024
Oh Wow!, What a surprise, Maggie was an big Aussie icon and very well respected. Condolences to her family.

Silent Night or Still the Night?
Singing this hymn used to do my head in as a child. In Scotland we sing Still the Night not the English version called Silent Night. The words are similar but there are little differences, and when I attended school in Australia I would get confused because the words weren’t quite right. One of my music teachers in high school said to the entire class that everyone knows the song. Not so, there are multiple versions of the song.
I remember asking my dad about this and he said we sing the German version in Scotland. That was what was taken as a given, however the wording is slightly different again, perhaps due to translation.
This is the Wikipedia page for the German language and English language versions.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silent_Night
It turns out the version I know is one of the Presbyterian versions. We used a Scottish Hymnal or hymnary of the Church of Scotland in our schools and churches when I was a child. I remember my parents buying my brother and I our own hymnaries (Hymnals), when we started school. I came across these books when my father was moving into the retirement home a few years ago. Old memories came back in a flash and it all seemed like a million years ago.
http://forum.ship-of-fools.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=print_topic;f=70;t=024981 #1
https://mudcat.org/thread.cfm?threadid=41727 #2
Above are two an interesting discussions on the history of the song and the confusion surrounding the wording.
Some of the words that I remember are below.
Still the night, holy the night (the opening line)
Sleep in heavenly peace / heavenly rest (part of the chorus)
In the version that I knew we sang, “Christ the redeemer is here”, at the end of the song.
It’s all as clear as mud to be honest, but the Scottish versions are much closer to the original German version. These days I am more familiar with the English version when listening to Christmas music, but I still mentally insert the Scottish version 🤣🤣🤣🎄🎄🎄
I hope everyone enjoys the silly season. I personally do not observe the religious side of Christmas. To me it is an ancient winter season celebration in the northern hemisphere countries and the winter solstice which much older than Christianity. But what ever floats your boat is what matters.
Warm and fuzzy hugs

BOOKS: The Lore of Scotland
https://www.thenile.com.au/books/sophia-kingshill/the-lore-of-scotland/9780099547167
The Nile is an Australian online bookshop that has many hard to find books in its extensive booklist. I recently purchased this 2009 book, The Lore of Scotland by Westwood and Kingshill, on Scottish folklore and it has an extensive bibliography and reference index. So if like me you love Celtic mythology and folklore then this is a good addition to your collection. The chapters are laid out in regions of Scotland for a quick reference. Might be a good Christmas prezzy for someone special if you are stuck for something to buy.

Wes Penre: Q and A Session 3, November 2024
https://wespenrevideos.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/QA-Session-3-November-2024.pdf
Q 1. One has to check the credulity of some individuals. Not for one minute do I find this credible. I have known of some people who channel “spiritual beings” to make predictions and they turn out to have absolutely no substance whatsoever. I have known individuals that channel ET’s and I have serious doubts and concerns about them.
I am able to channel myself, but I am very against this activity as you will see on my blog. It is unreliable anyway and it can be very dangerous. This is a classic example of mess around and find out the hard way.
Q 2. We know at the point of death that we are dead if we know it’s coming, especially if we have been ill or we are old. The soul prepares us regardless and already is in the stage of disengagement from the body weeks before death. However the conscious self is usually not aware until near the end of life if they are ill and so they are prepared for death. The body starts to power down and a calmness comes over the person. Their breathing also changes to assist the process and other beings in spirit are around the person at that time too. Ready to guide them to the other side. I see them myself when someone that I know is dying.
A person that dies suddenly also has people in spirit who know that the death is coming too. Any loved ones that have psychic abilities may also be aware of this too. Not in every situation though, but it happens, and I am speaking from experience with family members dying and a couple of friends. One particular person I knew years in advance of their death coming. Not how they died but knowing their time was short. That is something that I would rather not have known too.
I get precognitive dreams warning me of a death in the family, but not every single person in the family who dies. That may be down to how close I was to the person dying though.
Death is not something to spend your time dwelling upon, live your life as best you can without worrying.
Q 3. As Wes says strengthen your boundaries, keep your aura or energy field high by holding firm but positive thoughts. I would also suggest avoiding negative people and energy vampires in your life.
There are crystals that can assist in protecting your energy from psychic attacks and there are essences and essential oils that also help. Gold light protection can also be used as well as the grounding techniques.
As for psychic protection in your sleep, use the same psychic protection techniques just prior to going to bed. But also put crystals like black tourmaline and selenite on your bed side table. You can also put crystals under your pillow to repel negative thoughts, negative energy and protect your aura.
Space clearing essences can also be used to cleanse your aura and remove negative energy. Such as Australian Bush Flower Essences like space clearing essence, which is spiritually charged essence. 7 squirts on and around your body are to protect your chakras and your aura from negative energy. This spray can be used on humans and animals safely. It is also used to clear energy in rooms just like white sage. Most importantly, don’t keep dwelling on negative thoughts and fears because you will draw it to you.
I use psychic protection daily as part of my spiritual practice. I also do a spiritual cleansing in the shower each morning. You should also think about psychic protection around your home, car and workplace. That is if you feel that you are under a psychic attack or black magic. Personally I don’t believe in black magic but many of my clients do believe in it. That negative energy can only work if you believe in it and you can protect yourself by avoiding the sort of individuals that do such things.
You have power within you to protect yourself, develop a strong sense of self first and foremost. That is not negotiable, you must be responsible for your own welfare.
Q 4 I think using a pendulum is a much better option, as it is tuned in to your energy field and your higher self. I use my pendulum to help me but I am aware that I am asking my higher self for help. What ever floats your boat peeps and if you are confident with that choice then it is all good 👍
Yes, everything is inverted in our reality and our reality is dualistic by design. I am glad to see Wes also mentioned the fact of the physical body is like a tomb. We are dead when in a physical body and even the bible alludes to this as I have mentioned before in other posts. We are not meant to be here and we are not meant to be in a physical body.
The spiritual game of life
I had an interesting experience a couple of days ago when doing mediumship on a Skype call. The image I was shown was like a VR game with the gamers looking on from above. This was relatives of my client who are in spirit, showing me from their perspective how our world looks to them. They were looking down into a circular chamber almost like an auditorium and we are the players in the venue going about our lives. Those on the other side of life watching on like spectators. I could see the long drop down from where there spirit beings were standing, down on to what looked like green grass similar to a football pitch and people just walking around totally unaware that they were being watched from above by these spirits. Kind of like the movie, The Truman Show.
It looked very much like a simulation like when people play console games. As I observed the vision, I noticed the characters, meaning us living in our world were superimposed on top of my tarot cards on the table. Though this is not the first time that I have seen spirit beings overlayed on my tarot cards. It did remind me of the Shakespeare statement, all the world is a stage. Which some people correctly take as a hint at the metaphysical reality of the world we inhabit. The expression as above, and so is below is still valid, but it is a multiple meaning expression.
I wish that I could psychically share what I saw with everyone. Because it was just like 3D and I could look right through the people shown to me like they were just holograms. Not all spirit beings show the exact same type of images to explain what we look like to them. I don’t believe that there is any real set way in which we are perceived by non physical beings either, or even how we psychics and clairvoyants see spirit beings. We all decode with our brains whatever is imparted to us whether by a physical person or a spirit person. So we don’t pick up and interoperate the information the same way.
I also don’t feel the description above of the spirit beings watching us from above is 100% correct either, it’s just an analogy. The spirit world is all around us just on a different multiple frequencies out of the range that we humans can’t perceive with our physical senses. I see people in spirit often and sometimes it’s just them standing next to me or someone else. Other times it’s seeing the spirit through my third eye clairvoyantly. I generally have a tingling warm sensation around me when a spirit is present, though it's not always the case.
I believe it is down to individual spirit beings and their own individual knowledge or awareness, beliefs and individual language of communication, to try to inform us of how they perceive us. Just as we in our world perceive them is snot always the same either. It seems more a visual and cognitive language more than a spoken language spirits beings communicate with when trying to contact us, which is the best way that I can describe things being communicated from spirit to us. However spoken language is used too with a range of emotions.
There are scientists and researchers etc, who are now of the opinion that we do live in a simulated world too. Scientists have been trying to find a way to explore other worlds for decades in the area of Noetic science, which is an offshoot of physics. I believe that it is more likely that the scientists need to find a frequency key, to answer the question though.
I personally, have also seen a different version of incarnations done using a set up like being in black sensory deprivation chamber type of enclosures or pods, which were linked with what looked like big black corrugated tubes. All of the pods that I saw were placed in a circle with the heads pointing to the middle of the circle and the black tubes running from the head part of the pods to something in the middle of the circle. The lighting was very dim in the room or laboratory type environment; so I could not see much else. I was aware that someone was standing beside me as I saw this vision. Perhaps it was my spirit guide, but I have no idea to be honest.
This was long before the movie Avatar came out, but having seen that movie at the cinema. I was stunned to see what I had been shown by spirit, in the actual movie, which is a hint of our reality and how this world functions, including the archonic overlords, although the movie portrays us humans as the evil overlords when in reality we are the victims. This of course leads in to a much deeper metaphysical question of the soul trap and creation by intelligent design and what all this means on a deeper spiritual level.
Reading the extensive information by researchers such as Wes Penre and Anton Parks leaves us with a very deep subject to explore on the reality of our world and other realities and the two way relationship between us. How we perceive each other and what actually is reality, which becomes quite subjective the more one investigates the subject. No answers will be forthcoming any time soon, and they will most definitely be highly questionable sources. Verifiable information will not be easy to obtain in our world because human understanding is very limited in the third dimension due to the dark heavy energy that makes up this dimensional frequencies.
I reserve my own judgement until after I depart this world because we can very easily have our opinions and beliefs clouded by other peoples views and we operate within a reality framework that is quite limiting. Consciousness doesn’t truly expand until we are no longer in the tomb of the physical body. Keep an open mind about reality and do not have a set expectation because what one thinks is what one manifest, whether in the physical reality or the spiritual reality, everything is thought reactive regardless of where we are. We must be free of influence both externally and internally. Most importantly is we must be fluid in our beliefs, what one believes currently on any subject can change quickly and so should our spiritual understanding.

Hospital reveals the 10 Most common objects that kids stick up their noses
It’s not just up the hooter, they also shove things in their ears too. I remember sticking beads in my ears when I was around 3 years old. I wanted to wear earrings like my mum.
Luckily my mum put some oil into my ear to massage the ear and out popped the bead. Two minutes later, I did it again and I put it deeper into the ear, lol. She was not impressed with me obviously and she went to find where my beads came from and put them in the garbage to prevent me trying to do it again. It was a necklace that had broken and me being a rather active child, thought that I could put the beads in my ears.

Hello Possums
❤️❤️ Greetings Possums ❤️❤️
I have noticed more hits on the blog, mind you a lot have been bots from Hong Kong, but hey it means more of a boost for this blog. It has been slow to get to where my old blog was.
It’s been really nice for people visiting from many countries that I did not expect either. So welcome my little Possums, and I hope you have a good laugh, find things that interest you and there may be something that inspires you to pick up the Tarot cards or just enjoy learning a little something different.
Don't forget to read my Psychic predictions for the world and predictions for Australia too every year and my Tarot card of the month.
Big warm and fuzzy hugs to all of you and thank you for stopping by.
Note: For those not acquainted with the affectionate term, “possum”, in Australia to call someone possum is a term of endearment. No doubt many have heard of the Australian comedian Berry Humphries and his alter ego Dame Edna Everage and the greeting of hello possums.
Mysterious King Arthur Monument Found to Be Over 5,000 Years Old
https://www.sciencealert.com/mysterious-king-arthur-monument-found-to-be-over-5000-years-old
I doubt if we will ever find an answer to this. But is it possible there is not only an astronomical purpose and an astrological purpose to where this is situated? A one of a kind structure that archaeologists know of so far, no doubt it is also on the ley line that runs through the area, which would mean its location is very important for either of these purposes. Whomever built this would have knowledge of such things to build here if this is on a ley line. Ley lines are the earth’s chakras being a living entity no different to any living beings.
Regardless of that ancient history is an amazing subject as is archaeology. I always find the UK an exciting place for both mystical and historical studies. I do miss my homeland when I read anything historical or even of the natural world and wildlife. Similar to Australia with magic in the air at sacred sites.

Here is a lovely article about Cornwall and the mystical history including Bodmin moor where King Arthur’s hall monument is located. I wish I could visit this place and enjoy the mystical atmosphere. Not to mention the beautiful scenery and wildlife.

Probiotic Delivers Anticancer Drug To Gut
https://www.miragenews.com/probiotic-delivers-anticancer-drug-to-gut-1361941/
This looks promising, but the body needs to be alkaline to stop disease too, when the body builds up acid it becomes sick. Life is pretty hectic for the average person as it is, and trying to afford a healthy nutritious diet is getting more difficult for people especially if they have a family to feed. Probiotics are expensive for many families too, and you need top quality probiotics that are kept refrigerated. Anything else is not worth buying, so do your research before buying anything. Natural yoghurt is a good start as are fermented foods, though not everyone can eat these for health reasons such as allergies to these things or an intolerance. Talk to your pharmacist about probiotics for people who are lactose intolerant as there are alternatives.
This is where those that can afford to, need to use a naturopath as well as their family doctor. Learning what is nutritional and what is immune system enhancing. With the changes in our world these days we owe it to ourselves to learn nutrition and preventative natural medicine to work together for optimal health.

Police track down unlikely shoe thief from Japanese kindergarten
LOL, I just had to share this one. What a cute little stinker, lol. I love the expression used at the end of the article. My late cat Tolstoy had a thing for shoes, he would steal them and sniff them, sometimes we found them under the bed. He was a funny little guy.
What's the difference between a weasel and a stoat? A weasel is weasely recognised and a stoat is stoataly different
Tarot Card of the Month: December 2024, 8 of Cups
The number 8 astrologically speaking is about endings and transformations, money including inheritance or other people’s money, death (liberation of the soul), sex, regeneration, taxes, partner’s resources. The 8th house is ruled by the sign of Scorpio, which is a water sign and the planet Pluto, which is responsible for breaking down and rebuilding. Pluto has a 12 to13 year cycle.
Element is Water
Mercury goes retrograde on 25 November to 15th December.
Welcome to the last TCOM for 2024, which is a number 8 year and the last card is also a number 8.
Looking at the card we see the sky is clear yet the sky is dim with the moon partially covering the sun. This shows us there is some illusion happening in December. It is out with the old and in with the new.
December is charged with emotional energy, as is the times that we are currently experiencing, which will be for a long time to come. Individually this card is about finding one's self by looking inwards and examining our feelings, questioning our life direction and even our spiritual beliefs, political beliefs, wrong versus right. Acknowledging the shadow self and making life changing decisions.
So this card tells me, we will see people looking for understanding of themselves, and what is happening around them. Do they fit in with the crowd, family values, spiritual or religious beliefs etc.
Emotions are highlighted again in December globally, clearer thinking is essential and removing illusion and deception relating to issues that cloud one's judgement and thinking
December is about transformation, endings and new beginnings, foreign lands, deaths, rebirth, money, and communication on all levels. So pay attention to what is being said, what you read, what you say. Don't make ambiguous statements, or say things that can be misunderstood or taken the wrong way. Clarity of communication is a must, as is clarity of thought and removing illusions that cloud our judgement and thinking on many issues is in the spotlight. Care is also needed in how we react to the news, in regards to religion, politics, belief systems and our sub conscious programing.
Things will come to the surface emotionally (the moon) that will be challenging to accept, acknowledge and deal with. Honesty is the best policy in such matters. Nobody is perfect as we all make mistakes. But do we really learn from the mistakes? It is advisable to keep emotions in check this month due to the high emotional energy combined with deep seated emotions that rise to the surface.
Support may not always be available for you, so you may have to rely on your own emotional reserves. It is time to look into one's heart and see what is really there.
Jumping from one situation to another is part of the December energy. Travelling long distance is indicated, including people moving from one nation to another, due to fears of conflict and war increasing. These people are seeking sanctuary, but where will they find it? Not everyone is welcoming to strangers on their soil or doorstep. Instability and insecurity are driving factors in this along with poor decisions by governments.
I hear the words, battle lines are drawn, this relates to the US, UK and France mostly. I do feel the UK is singled out emotionally in December. Public anger, political upheaval and money problems are centered around England, in the south of England especially. Protests, new arrivals to the country (legal and illegal) and government indifference towards the ordinary people drives this unrest. Starmer has sown division within his party, which makes the public look back to the Torries. However neither party is better than the other. Meanwhile the social divide is increasing.
The US is getting ready for action as Trump prepares to take office. This is not a smooth transition and something nasty is just around the corner, currently lurking in the shadows. I do feel a downfall is imminent politically speaking and betrayal is in the air. Can the government head this storm off?
This has a feeling like something or someone crossing the water and on the shores of the US, under the cloak of darkness unseen and unexpected. This is about leadership, hearts and minds. A political "ally" going from his country to the UK, to the US. There are deep emotional convictions involved with this man. This feels like Zelensky of Ukraine.
This is to shore up defence, but there a hint of illusion or deception here. I also feel that Trump is getting ready to do something that will divide the US. China meanwhile is on guard watching how things play out in Ukraine but won't show their hand. They are too busy in their own back yard with Taiwan and the South China Seas with naval exercises and trying to build up buddies to team up with. Xi is doing the rounds to see who is on his team. There will be swings in his allies camp, jumping between China and the US. These nations are afraid that the US and Australia cannot protect them, and factoring in the length of time that it takes for the military to arrive to help them.
I do feel something military is happening around water throughout December, (South China Seas, and a middle Eastern region) I hear the word Shoal or shoal of.
Looking at the man in the card, I notice what looks like smoke next to the figure's left foot. Which makes me feel that it could be a target near the western coastline ( England?) The target looks like it has been bombed or burned. The ground where the figure is standing looks like the south west of England.
The figure himself looks to be on a mission of some sort, both for himself and a country. Seeking help and higher ground and asking for sanctuary, this again feels like Zelensky. The question is will he get his sanctuary? That all depends on the deal that's struck. Either way he has to deal with Trump.
As I look at the cups stacked up in the foreground, I observe the gap between the cups on the top row. Wiggle room! That's a very big gap here to slip through, not to mention either side of the top row. Freedom of movement, thought and enlightenment. This is a choice that is available should a person look inwards and examine the truth of any matter on their mind. It also shows political wiggle room for adjustments.
For business, this card indicates goods being redirected, redistributed (aid?) Transportation of goods sitting at docks or distribution centers.
I wish everyone a lovely Christmas season and all the very best for the New Year to come. Take care of your loved ones and do not take un necessary risks.
Warm and Fuzzy hugs to everyone wherever you live
Alex
