.  the state of the human there is a mess.  what a muddle for the muddles.  what a tangled absurdity and still wreaking havoc.  the war in heaven, whatever EXPLANATION (of the players) is THE DEAL. as u have outlined.  we differ in the sense that i think/feel/know (went out on a limb with that one  by saying 'know') that indeed, NOUS somehow, some kind of instigated nous and and epinoia, injected in occurs somehow after time all the above events u outlined, in certain sectors, for some of the humans, and and an overall lifting to another realm reality for the ex-human or human players occurs in a slightly greater number.  and with slightly difft forms. all that matters not though.  humans have to keep evolving somewhere, since they were so engineered and i think nous breaks them out of the mold, that they eveolved anyway even tho it wasnt planned, or expected and they shed that engineered role.  get/become higher in the herarchy as a breed, a species.  and im partially a de-humanist.  (they can be so disappointing).   its  so worn out how the cycling goes.  i think the warranty is out/up on it.  i say this after reading the Pistis Sophia, the padgett channelings more recently.   altho skewed they had the master backing uop much u said.  now, the kumaras (are they truly brothers?) and could u explain more on that for us here,  please?

several works (lots gnostic), myths legends explalin this ascension phenomena.  i looked up Barbelo and was amazed at how these players in this cosmic gam are known to mankind and to other beings from interplanetary courts and schools.  history has stored all this.  all can be found.  i think some will definitely make it past many realms, really jumping them and not in order like the egyptians have said, and im thinking some wiser egyptians way knew better.   i cant see tho how ppl that dont know who they are will, since i think the plan is imprinted on some, in some, to do so.  and that that decision was made and installed by that being somehow.  as its been seen and done already kinda sorta.   the reality will change here for these humans, more than suspected is what im thinking.  in the whole sector.  so that the games like they have cant be played as rotten again, as overall evolution keeps speaking and this is so worn out, here.

It feels good to be swept up in the updraft of the mighty Zen's blouse, oh thou monumental one, thanku for your kind words....  I would actually have written a book if my previous post had gone on for much longer.  It had to stop somewhere and  that was only a thumbnail of an even bigger picture.  May i fly straight into it? 

The 4th root race on earth fell (in consciousness and vibration) from the etheric plane and progressively took on denser bodies until they too were physical.  They then intermarried with human beings who were already in a very low state of consciousness.  The "sons of god married the daughters of men" as it is written in scripture and this inter- breeding accelerated their own decent in consciousness.  Also, the 5th and 6th root races are here on earth in various states of spiritual awareness.  Then there are the UFO beings here on earth and in the astral plane.   As i understand it, souls have been incarnating on earth in various planes for a vast period, so this has all taken place during vastly different epochs.  This planet is crowded with "evolutionary variety" because of those diverse origins and because relatively few souls have awoken to the indwelling Presence of God and ascended.  But at the end of another Great Cycle (now) some on earth are ready to ascend.  At the other end of the spectrum, others are wearing out their welcome on this planet.  I'll explain what i know of that a bit further on.

I agree Zenden, that "nous" must come and is coming.  It is being injected again as the solution to all this pathos unfolding on planet earth.  The earth and her evolutions desperately need personal and planetary solutions and that's what this current 'wave' of the holy spirit is all about.   It is not simply a way of escaping a world in decay, but is an opportunity to anchor the light of spirit, first in ourselves and then in our world.  A Golden Age is planned.  The players on the chessboard are being repositioned and some are being removed.  Nevertheless, a Golden Age is not guarranteed.  We must ratify the plan of hierarchy by playing our part and that means consciously remembering and becoming who we really are.  For us, that "nous" you speak of is a remembrance of our divine consciousness... something we already are at inner levels.  Way way back, a measure of that "nous" was first "breathed into" early man after long cycles of evolution through the lower kingdoms.  The intelligence of spiritual intellect was bestowed, and with it, the faculties to realise the fullness of that gift of life, through self- mastery in matter and eventual ascension into spirit.  At that early stage, the home-evolutionary-run had just begun and eventual union with spirit was in evolutionary view.  But that divine act of will was curtailed [in at least one of these evolutionary epochs by at least 2 separate evolutions of 'angels'] by the genetic and psychic tampering with those souls for reasons pointed out earlier. 

Throughout that process of tampering and conflict all "nous" was lost by everyone including the angel devas who were provoked into defending their field of action.  [I use the term "nous" as it relates to the "divine reason" of the "divine mind" in man and woman... ie.. "numinous", which is not merely the human reasoning faculty of the lower intellect or lower mental body]. The fallen angels who came and provoked all that conflict, had already perverted their "numinous" into a self serving shadow of true selfhood long before they came to earth.  They were very familiar with destruction as a philosophical approach to life and had totally destroyed "Maldek" their home planet before coming here.  Evidently, they literally blew it apart.  It is now an asteroid belt in a 'trillion' pieces.  Nice work.  They are called the "laggard race" because aeons ago (must have been before Maldek) they failed to keep up (in evolutionary terms) with the evolutionary cycle on their home planet and they failed to ascend with that planet and with the souls who ascended with it.  For them, knowledge (and all it's corrupted uses) has long replaced wisdom/numinous and they are here on earth still outplaying the old deep conflicts within themselves,, still playing demigod in the footstool kingdom.  But the soul's opportunity is not eternal.  They will soon meet their maker again and be called to account for their crimes against humanity.

This incarnation is the end of the left handed path for them [the path of STS] and it does not lead to ascension.  It leads to soul death at the Court of the Sacred Fire or, if they so choose, something almost akin to demonhood in the lower astral worlds.  That will be the only choice left to them at the end of this life.  Their misuse of freewill and consciousness has finally brought them to this ultimate nemesis.  During their final incarnation on earth, they are not likely to suddenly accept the spiritual breath of life and the path of the ascension in this final opportunity afforded by the law.  And if they did it would be a long road home.  They want nothing to do with surrendering the lower- ego, (and all it's accouterments of power) so once again these evolutionary 'laggards' are virtually certain to be left behind [and go to judgement] as earth rises in vibration.  The spiritual breezes are again blowing through all life and forcing choice on all the inhabitants of earth.  Christ or antichrist?  Who will reign on the throne of each heart?  For some, [the laggards] this is a final choice, and if antichrist is chosen (again, as it is being chosen) then they will be taken from the planet at death and no longer allowed to incarnate here.  In the custody of Archangelic beings of light they will be taken to the "Court of the Sacred Fire" (see revelation) and given one final choice.  They will be confronted with the record of their entire incarnational sojourn in matter (on this and other planets) and shown the unmitigated crimes they have committed.  As a witness to their infamy they will see the path of destruction they have revelled in for aeons.  They will then be given a choice.  Either, they will choose self oblivion and the instant cancelling out of soul identity (by the sacred fire) or they can choose a lower evolutionary path in a lower realm.  Either way they won't be returning to earth. 

When these beings first rebelled against the law (of loving service) they "swore enmity against the woman and her seed forever" (see Revelation).  The "woman" is the mother light within us.  It is the kundalini fire that, if gently disciplined in devotion and loving service, can rise from the base chakra to the crown chakra, giving birth to the christ- consciousness on the way.  "To him that remains faithfull unto the death (of the lower- ego) i will give the crown of life" (Revelation).... ie... "I" (the inner- Christ) will fully open the crown chakra and flood the soul in the golden light of divine illumination.  This initiation of the souls of light is what the fallen angels fear.  For ages, they have dedicated their lives to preventing it's manifestation in us.   They have waged war by all deceptive means and that includes offering their own appetites to cause souls to squander and misqualify the mother light..... the kundalini energies within us.

The fallen angels have made that light in us, their enemy.  If they can steal it, it is their "friend".  But if that light rises up within us and illumines our souls, it is their enemy.  So they do not wait for that light to rise up (in us) from the base chakra to the crown...  Because if that happened we would be able to see straight through incarnate evil and we would be empowered (in sufficient numbers) to dethrone them.  So the power elite have done everything in their power to prevent it.   If they can keep us spiritually blind, we are unable to dethrone the usurper in our own hearts (the vibration of anti- christ).  If we can't do that, then we have no power to change the world either.  We know that we must first change ourselves in order to change the world.  The problem has always been that the power elite know it too and they've done everything possible to prevent our awakening.  And so they have remained in positions of power everywhere.  Since their rebellion and fall these laggard fallen angels have devised many ways (some enjoyable and desirable and some painfull and traumatic) to pervert and steal the light from us before it can rise up and empower us in the strength of true being.  Christ is our true Self in spirit and the seed of christ is within our hearts, ready to blossom into a full externalisation of divine Selfhood..... the fullness of the incarnate 'word'.  That is why that seed of light has been attacked at it's inception.  The "woman and her seed" have been attacked (see Revelation) because if the mother light were allowed to rise up within us and activate the seed of the christ- consciousness, then the fallen angels and all their corrupt systems would be no more.  They would have no power over us.  Without blind, eviscerated participants, their systems of control would collapse.  [These fallen angels are referred to in the Edgar Cayce Atlantis material as "The Sons of Belial" who were at constant odds with "The Children of the Law of One"...... Today, nothing has changed in that regard.  This war of deception has been waged against the souls of light ever since the "fall' of the laggards (in vibration and consciousness) and their physical incarnation on earth]

Here are just a few allegorical references in "The Book of Revelation" chapter 12 which illustrate what i've written about the false hierarchy of laggards in the physical and the astral planes and their war of persecution against our souls and the kundalini light within us...ie...the "woman"  :

"And the great dragon was cast out -(Lucifer and the fallen angels were cast out of the higher realms)
  That old serpent called the devil and satan -(with bands of fallen angels including Satan)
  Which decieveth the whole world -(perverters of truth in everything on earth)
  He was cast out into the earth -(due to rebellion they were cast out of heaven and took on bodies of flesh)
  And his angels were cast out with him"- (millions of angels fell into gross materiality with Lucifer and Satan)

And :

"Woe to the inhabiters of the earth -(the physical plane) and of the sea- (the astral plane)
  For the devil is come down unto you -(the fallen angel's arrival on earth and the astral)
  Having great wrath- (filled with hatred and revenge against the word incarnate... us)
  For he knoweth that he hath but a short time" - ( their opportunity to bend the knee
                                                                                 to the law of loving service to others
                                                                                 would 'soon' end)...(now)
And :

"And when the dragon (the laggards) saw that he was cast unto the earth (plane)
  He persecuted the woman - (the kundalini mother light in the souls of light)
  Which brought forth the manchild - (the rising kundalini light gives birth to the christ- consciousness)

And :

"And the dragon was wroth with the woman - (fallen angels hatred against the mother light within us)
  And went to make war with the remnant of her seed- (war by all means against even the potential of
                                                                                         the christ- consciousness wherever it appears)

See what this warfare is about?  It's been described in many ways by ancient and modern authors including some here at NR.  It's about the theft and plunder of the light of the soul in order to trap souls in materiality under the dominion of the fallen angels.  That explains why souls of light on this planet have been so manipulated and persecuted at every hand.  [Read all about the modus operandi of the fallen angels which is exposed in many of the topics on Noble Realms forum].  The fallen angels have prosecuted a war of lies and deception as an unending "persecution of the saints" in order to fulfill their ancient pact of sworn enmity against us.  Their hatred of the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit and the Mother has found expression against the 'word' incarnate on this planet.  They fear the christ- consciousness because it is a far greater power than their own evil.  For their unmitigated hatred and persecution, and for turning the light within themselves to total darkness, and for cavorting with astral demons in plots against the souls of light, they are about to face their final judgement.  A "Dividing of The Way" is now taking place on earth.  Their time is now very short.  For all of earth's evolutions, three doors are open.... 

1) The ascension for a minority- [a number of the souls of light]

2) The final judgement for a minority- [The laggard fallen angels who will get one final choice]
                                                            [Re- incarnation on earth will not be an option]

3) Re- incarnation for the majority on earth, free from the gross influence of the laggard fallen angels.     

This is "the dividing of the way" or "the judgement" which has been prophesied for so long.  The time has now come for Spirit to separate the real from the unreal.  In the book of Acts it says :

"And it shall be in the last days -[last days of the age of pisces and of the Great Cycle of 25800 years... Now]
I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh -[the earth and everyone will recieve the higher spiritual vibration]
And your sons and daughters shall speak the revelation of God - [will see the truth and speak it]
Your young will see visions and your old will dream dreams" - [as the soul faculties awaken to inner- spirit]

In part, all this is the fulfillment of the plan of hierarchy and is hierarchy's solution to the impasse on planet earth, where the darkest souls still hold the most temporal power and abuse it to the destruction of the weak.... and ultimately themselves.  The laggards have always been the power elite on earth.  By their mutual re-inforcement of an interdimensional false hierarchy they have almost always maintained control of earth and her evolutions.  But that game is up now.  The beggining of the end began with the coming of Sanat Kumara ages ago.  The plan of hierarchy for the saving of a planet swung into action and continues to this day.  It was only the coming of Sanat Kumara and the 144000 to earth, that "numinous" was re- infused into some among humanity.  It was essential at that time that someone with enough attainment of the light of the heart might hold the balance for the total darkness (energy) of all of humanity.  Sanat Kumara came here to hold the balance until humanity could walk again in their own light.  He consciously sent light rays from his spiritual heart to every soul on earth as a gift for who-ever might respond to that subtle call to come up higher in consciousness.  For some, it was irresistable. 

There are 7 Kumaras and as far as i know, only the names of 2 Kumaras have been revealed.  A definition of "Kuma- Ra" means "Guardian of the Divine Fire".  The other Kumara is "Sananda Kumara" mentioned in the Theosophical literature.  He does not communicate to earth souls by way of channelling.  The "space brother" entity that goes by the name of "Sananda" is an imposter of Jesus and it goes without saying that he is not Sananda Kumara.   Jesus and the true brotherhood (and sisterhood) of Adepts do not travel around in spaceships.  They have no need for physical means of conveyance.

This information was collated over the years of researching the works of the Brotherhood in various offerings since the 1800s right through to the past few years of the 21st century.  Much of this is collated in various ways in various places and is now also on a site called : www.askrealjesus.com     If you can get past the religious symbolism on the homepage and actually read the discourses which are in the form of answers to direct questions (24 topics appear at the bottom of the home page) you will find solid information there straight from the 'horse's mouth'.

SYMBIOSIS and synthesizing crystallization as DIAMONDS it IS Rhyotion.  we're all worn down (i loved that--it says so much) BUT as YOU  said -- still got "IT" in you/us.  yes yes.  let's spark it forward.  keep lighting 'it' up.  a good thread for the master game playing tactics to be  honed sharper.  diamonds cut carbon better than anything.   u got it.

I see, thank you, that spark took awhile to register. Everything is starting to work out, still a few catches though. I understand also, it think's itself funny you know; but I'm finding these games are getting quite old.

let's just say super conditioning, it is ridiculous. Really easy to detect now.

I enjoyed your epic post, Nexus. So there really is a "War in Heaven" (if you take "heaven" to mean the astral plane)? I guess the solution is to transcend the whole duality game, rather than getting tricked into fighting for either so-called "good" or "evil"?

Thanks Daisy, Zen.   It looks like there really is a war in the "heavens" and true, it is engaged in the lower astral and lower mental planes.  The dark powers can't get beyond those lower regions into the upper astral and upper mental planes nor into the etheric planes, all of which are much clearer and lighter and populated with a more evolved calibre of soul.  We don't want to gravitate to the lower astral or lower mental planes after 'death', so it's essential to progress our spiritual growth while we're in this physical body.  By transmuting the negative energy in our personal energy field, we give ourselves the best opportunity to rise above all strife in this world and in the spheres beyond after 'death'.  If we do a fine job refining our soul while still in this body, we can consciously realise the etheric realms (the "Tushita Heavens" in Buddhist lore) while we are still in this body and we can easily consciously awaken in the etheric plane at 'death'.   Then from there, when the requirements for ascension are met we can fully ascend into the I AM Presence in spiritual planes.  But certain requirements must first be met.

I've seen it written around the place that if we are 51% STO we fulfill the requirements for ascension.  I think that comes from the 'Ra' material (from the 1980s) and David Wilcock and others are passing it along, perhaps also from other sources subsequent to Ra, (the 'Cassiopaeans?) i don't know.  But i think that concept it is a misunderstanding of an earlier dispensation given in the 1950s or 1960s before 'Ra' appeared on the scene (i think it was released through 'The Summit Lighthouse').  I believe that the source of the Ra material, whoever that is, has simply taken the 51% concept and grafted it on to their own work in a way that shreds it of it true meaning.  The true meaning being actually, that if we balance 51% of our karma (those misqualified energies sown by the soul in ignorance during all incarnations) we will have fulfilled just one of the requirements for ascension and will no longer be compelled to take physical embodiment again. (the remaining 49% of karma can be balanced from higher planes).  That is a fair bit different to what the 'Ra' material is saying.  Personally i don't accept the Ra material as a very accurate source of information on a few important things and that is one of them.   

Think about it.  If we spend this lifetime devoting 51% of our interactions with people in a sevice to others orientation (as Ra says we must do to ascend), will that necessarilly balance 51% of the karma we have ever made in the earth planes?  To me, they are two very different concepts.  For instance, if i have a heavy karma, lets say i had positions of power many times and failed to use it in service to others,(say i used it in STS)  and let's say i was responsible for the unnecessary suffering of many people, could i expect to just cheer up today, behave well 51% of the time in STO (and behave selfishly 49% of the time) and leave my karmic responsibilities behind?...  Merrilly off to ascend?  or, as some would have it, to hit the ground running in an entirely different timeline?  My many victims perhaps ignorantly self- imprisoned on a worse timeline?  My many victims uncompensated by the law?...  Myself the rightful instrument of that law of compensation? ... off to another timeline? ... never to cast a backward glance at my victims? 

While it's hard to believe from appearances, we live in a universe of justice and compensation.  The 'criminal' always compensates the 'victim'.  Anyone with a modicum of remorse and respect for free will, will do that by agreeing to reincarnate in order to bring balance to old conflicts at the scene where they happened.  That is where honour comes in.  Right where we find ourselves in the here and now.   Like standing now on the beaches of Normandy, we are now at the scene of old karmic "battles".  No more asking ourselves... "Why am i here?"  We're here to honour our obligations, and more.  "Noblesse Oblige" is the motto of service.  We have each been 'vic' and perp' over and over and so we do have obligations of a karmic nature.   So the law compells us to honour our obligations to life through reincarnation.... by service to others.... until honour arises naturally within us and changes the orientation of our interactions with life from within.  So obviously, we are not just talking about a reorientation of outer behavior.  A dawning realisation of love and forgiveness is a grace that arises from within and it changes everything.  By that grace, the whole game can be transcended.   This whole opportunity we have at this time (to catch the wave of the holy spirit and to re- integrate with it and ascend) is the grace of a lifetime and should be taken with both hands.

It is true that in prior dispensations in prior ages we haven't had this grace very often.  We have had to experience our karma "by the sweat of the brow".  We have experienced what it is like to be on the recieving end of our own actions in multiple incarnations.  That karmic law has necessitated more incarnations than we care to think about.   Karmic lessons were among the main lessons we had to learn....  How does it feel to recieve what we have dealt?  And how to develop compassion in the midst of such toil?   And in each of those incarnations, fresh karma has been created and increased our obligations.  More heedless deeds were performed.  These really were not the lessons we came here to learn.  The lessons of negative karma have only been necessary because without grace, we often continued to offend others.  We chose to damn the flow of love and thereby damned ourselves (by our actions) to constant rounds of "lessons".  These "lessons" are only needed while one has a need for them.  Sounds simple.   But that can be a hard road if one keeps needing them.  And one only has a need for karmic lessons while one is engaged in the karma making activity of misqualifying energy in service to self.   To my mind, the term STS is very broad and inadequate to describe the infraction of the law because it seems narrowly to deal with human behavior.   It is deeper than behavior.  It is the misqualification of spiritual energies.  While the qualification of energy is linked to behavior it cannot be remedied simply by manning the soup kitchen downtown .... although that is a noble endeavour if done in the right spirit.  A reorientation of the flow of energy and consciousness must accompany the service to others (and ironically, much of this can be accomplished in solitude) if outer service is to accomplish more than the breaking of bread with others....what ever one's bread may be.

                     "Man cannot live by bread alone  [man cannot live on mere external physicalities]
                       but by every word  [the holy spirit of inner christ- consciousness]
                       that proceedeth out of the mouth  [that flows out from the 7 chakras]
                       of the lord"  [the 7 rayed christ- consciousness]                                           (Jesus)

The violation of freewill is also cited as the ultimate sin by the 'Ra' material.  True, but there are also countless activities of personal license (which violate the freewill of no- one) but which misqualify the personal lifeforce.   These are karma making insofar as those energies must be redeemed (at least 51%) before one requirement of ascension is fulfilled.  And that "ascension" is firstly to higher more subtle planes where the rest of the requirments for ascension need be  fulfilled. (ie... the balance of the remaining 49% of karma by redeeming / transmuting that energy too)

I realise that some consider these concepts of karma to be archaic and innacurate.  But i believe karmic responsibility results from our personal expressions or ommissions in this and other incarnations.  Since our first incarnation in matter each individual soul has 'spent' an allotment of personal energy which has streamed forth from the higher- Self through our chakras and 4 lower bodies into the material planes. That energy is 'stamped' with our personal identity and is identifiable as our own.... because it is actually ourself..... the stream of consciousness of self.   Energy which we have qualified in spiritual harmony blesses all material life, then rises back to spirit to increase the causal body.  The causal body, in spiritual planes,  is comprised of the spheres of consciousness on the 7 rays (and the 5 secret rays).   It is comprised from all spiritual energy which has been qualified harmoniously by the evolving soul in matter and (having no karmic weight) that energy has risen back to spiritual planes to increase the causal body.   This is how spiritual energy is supposed to flow freely between octaves.   The causal body is our "treasure laid up in heaven" as the scriptures record.  It is also written  "One star differeth in glory from another".  This refers to the 'star' of the causal body of each individual.  Some have greater manifest attainment of God consciousness than others and that is why "one star differeth in glory than another."   

I understand the other requirement for the ascension is the balance of the heart flame of love, wisdom and power.  At the etheric level of the heart chakra, there is actually a tiny spiritual flame which is the soul's contact at inner levels with the  christ- Self and I AM Presence. The christ flame is a 3 fold flame with each plume being one of the primary colors.  This 'fluer de lis' in the heart is colored with one pink plume (love) another yellow (wisdom) and the other blue (power).  Most people who have a manifest heartflame have it out of balance.   ie... Some people have developed power with too little love....  or love without enough power to carry it properly into action.  Or, some are more loving but lack enough wisdom to guide love's expression.... And other combinations of inbalance.   So we also need to bring these divine attributes of the heart into balance in our lives as another prerequisite for the ascension. 

I didn't intend to go into most of this.  I wanted to reply also to some points Zenden and Antaeus brought up but it's 3am.  Over the next couple of days for sure.

From the Crone Chronicles: "I knew with a kind of precocious certainty that only when I was old would I be released from the nonsense that goes along with being female in this society. I couldn't wait to be freed from the focus on "appearances," so that I could become fully myself, inside and out." (yep, definately me.)

The Crone is a troll boss in the Opera House in Karazhan, who follows Dorothee, Roar, Strawman, Tinhead, and Dorothee's pet Tito. http://www.wowwiki.com/The_Crone (yep, hee, hee, that one too.)

CRONE WAYS
In Praise of the Ancient One

The Crone is the ancient holy one. She is grandmother, witch and hag. She has been ignored, trivialized, blamed and feared, for she holds powers that others deny. Powers of time and transformation. Powers we may fear, but would do better to understand.
The Crone is the Mother of all Mothers. She knows all your bedtime stories, and all your worst nightmares. (yep)

Tarot of the Crone. She is the One Who Knows Death. She will introduce you to your shadow. She can free you from your fears. The Crone is She Who Has Gone Beyond. (yep)
   
She has lived many years and many lives. Her feet know the paths of the Ancestors. Through her we can touch those who have gone before. She has lived for love, for power, for grace. Now she lives for herself and her journey. She travels new roads and dares the unknown. (yep)

She is ancient, but not always aged. She may be beautiful, but she's not pretty. She Who Has Gone Beyond goes beyond our idea of what a deity or a woman may be. http://www.croneways.com/
(yep)
     
In the Tarot of the Crone, a hooded figure opens her cloak to reveal - nothing. Emptiness. The void at the center of the soul. In the midst of that dark, infinite space, a tiny star of light swirls. We fall into the vacuum, become the point of consciousness at its center, and feel the full emptiness, bareness, and possibility of being spirit stripped of form. http://www.tarotpassages.com/crone-ttl.htm  (yep)

The Court Cards are referred to as Face Cards - each being a different "face" of the Crone as expressed through the elements. They are how we express our own Elemental power.

The Face Cards are defined as follows:

Beast: The primal instinct of the power. The wild and whole expression of the element.

Witch: The focused use of the power concerned with fulfillment and expression of self.

Grandmother: The mature expression of the power concerned with family and community.

Shadow: The element's overdone, destructive and transformative powers.

Amazons at Elderflower

Amazons are the protectors of women's mysteries. An Amazon is a defender of all women and of Mother Earth. Fierce as the lioness, and gentle as the deer, Amazons are Witches and Warriors. An Amazon can also be in any phase of the Triple Goddess - maiden, mother, or crone. "We band together as women-identified women in our Sacred Amazon Sisterhood." (yep, that would be us!)

dont worry Prances Frances--u RIDE ONWARD with the pack.  communication will continue, as expected.  we leave no rider warriors behind.  just like the KT.  they never surrendered, left no soldier behind, no hostages allowed to be taken.  one of the first anti-terrorist groups around.  we are anti-terrorists and we band/stay together.  as the wave approaches.

the state of the human there is a mess.  what a muddle for the muddles.  what a tangled absurdity and still wreaking havoc.  the war in heaven, whatever EXPLANATION (of the players) is THE DEAL. as u have outlined.  we differ in the sense that i think/feel/know (went out on a limb with that one  by saying 'know') that indeed, NOUS somehow, some kind of instigated nous and and epinoia, injected in occurs somehow after time all the above events u outlined, in certain sectors, for some of the humans, and and an overall lifting to another realm reality for the ex-human or human players occurs in a slightly greater number.  and with slightly difft forms. all that matters not though.  humans have to keep evolving somewhere, since they were so engineered and i think nous breaks them out of the mold, that they eveolved anyway even tho it wasnt planned, or expected and they shed that engineered role.  get/become higher in the herarchy as a breed, a species.  and im partially a de-humanist.  (they can be so disappointing).   its  so worn out how the cycling goes.  i think the warranty is out/up on it.  i say this after reading the Pistis Sophia, the padgett channelings more recently.   altho skewed they had the master backing uop much u said.  now, the kumaras (are they truly brothers?) and could u explain more on that for us here,  please?

several works (lots gnostic), myths legends explalin this ascension phenomena.  i looked up Barbelo and was amazed at how these players in this cosmic gam are known to mankind and to other beings from interplanetary courts and schools.  history has stored all this.  all can be found.  i think some will definitely make it past many realms, really jumping them and not in order like the egyptians have said, and im thinking some wiser egyptians way knew better.   i cant see tho how ppl that dont know who they are will, since i think the plan is imprinted on some, in some, to do so.  and that that decision was made and installed by that being somehow.  as its been seen and done already kinda sorta.   the reality will change here for these humans, more than suspected is what im thinking.  in the whole sector.  so that the games like they have cant be played as rotten again, as overall evolution keeps speaking and this is so worn out, here.

that was a great epic post nexus.  laughed at the bar bit at the end and didnt expect it.   u have to know the tab's on me.  ur additions to posts and threads are monumental.  the knowledfge u've disseminated.   ur billy crystal new yorker schtick was delightful.   u r so brilliant and well read.  (we can picture it and hear it when ur son visits--that was cool and funny and a good share).   i think this should be the time, that if u have more of ur views--tell it.

Speaking of making drinks tonight (good idea, lyra you up for more pina coladas? lol)

Credit sinaptix, it was his idea!    Although he only mentioned it because in the past I'd be on there sipping my makeshift colada from pineapple and coconut rum on ice with half and half.  haha

ahem, anyway, back to Ascension.  (puts on serious face.)

i need ur email and u need mine.

I better be getting in on the action with some of these email orgies, people!  I might not post enough... but I can't imagine not having all of your wonderful words to read and quote in my notebooks.  Great stuff in here zen, pj, nexus and the rest of ya.  I'm gonna really try to spend some time digging through my stuff and kicking out a few decent posts before all is said and done... but I noticed zenden and a few others don't have their email on the site so I wanted to mention it somewhere.

I've been really sad too, Z - my eyes have been crazy puffy ever since I found out.  I think they're finally starting to recover but mah face still don't look right lol   Speaking of making drinks tonight (good idea, lyra you up for more pina coladas? lol) Last night a few of us got back on the ol' IRC and it really made me feel a lot better - which I was needing.  So anyway Zenden, and the rest of you guys who are sad you should find a way to pop on tonight because I'm pretty sure a few of us are gonna be back in there later on.  If you have trouble getting IRC going just send me a message and I'll help you with it.  Will be fun if you get a chance.  If not I'll be sending you big hugs and lookin out fo' your email in the ethers.  We'll get it all figured out though, I'm slowly feeling better about it after the initial shock.  Can't wait to talk more ?

It's all about symbiosis baby!
Taking the carbon and making diamonds!

I'm pretty worn down, but I still got it in me. It's this peaceful elation right now, words cannot even express.

You guys are awesome! I've just been a spectator of all of this insanity!

i need ur email and u need mine.   we will get it straight.  we have some time, altho short (for Now). i wish u werent in Manhatten but hey, and was going to say this the other day-- I know somebody COOL in manhatten.  way cool.   id love to meet ur mother.   is she still in the Alzheimer's place?  will hang on this thread as its so fantastically interesting and i want PJ to teach me more stuff.  its all unreal.  aint it tho?   ha.

no hangover but felt that tired feeling after tears.  i didnt make 'er strong ENUF!!! Maybe, and how could that have been?!  crap vodka was/is one reason.  ever the chintz.  will mix a badass one tonite (at work right now) and think of us all.  i havent even read nexus's stuff up there but jumped on quick to the post box to get this done.  been on the mind.

im loving "this" in a difft way.  im starting to see possiibilities.  AND I JUST HAVE TO SAY this--as guardians, gatekeepers, anchorers,  ive never been the middle of anything in all my life.  im an extremist.  BUT im beginning to think the MIDDLE path is a combo/ result/amalgamation of the other ends of extreme.  one MERGES these attributes, takes ALL into consideration, and rides a pathway right down the middle.   as both 'side's then (dark and light can be inserted here);  have been accessed.  im LIKIN' it.  right down the freakin' MIDDLE.   hmmmm

For example even now there are very spiritually evolved souls in the etheric plane of earth, only some of whom will incarnate again on earth. (These are the hardiest boddhisatvas.)  A perpetual Golden Age of soul satisfying 'perfections' is in full swing in the etheric plane (which is the highest material plane.)  It acts as a preparatory step for the ascension into spirit and as a shoolroom for earth souls to visit during sleep (and between incarnatiions if the soul is vibrationally prepared) there to be tutored by advanced souls and Adepts.   Not all souls on earth are participating in that because not all are ready yet.  I am writing this paragraph last because i want to point out that many of us could be closer to the (personal) ascension than we think.  In consideration of that real possibility, i think it could be helpfull for each of us to have a little understanding of our current evolutionary status.  An accurate appraisal of that is not a simple matter considering our current lowly estate in the flesh.  The density of our vessells hampers memory to a large degree.  That's why i believe at least a cursory understanding of who's who on earth (in broad evolutionary terms) can begin to open our understanding of our own origin (how we got here to earth) and our history on this planet.  The true record is written in every soul and it is accessable.  While i don't think it is something to obsess about, the truth about it can come to our conscious awareness in dreams and intuitions so it's worth contemplating at least a bit.  Having a thumbnail on a page like this could help trigger a deeper awareness and bring hope that the opportunity for ascension is real because we have surely originated in higher planes.  To those planes we shall return.  And ever beyond.

As i understand it there are several distinct evolutions of beings, criss crossing planet earth today.  Humans look the same, but they are not the same.  That is pretty certain to my mind and might even shed light also, on the fundamentally different psychological profiles of the many people who have passed through the Noble Realms over the past few years, ourselves included.

The true history of the earth reads a bit like a fantasy but, considering what is actually happening on planet earth, the truth seems worth considering as a possibility.  I've seen some elements of that history discussed here in various terms so it's not all new to NR.  It's what i found in different places in my own search, including my intuitions and confirmations of parts of this picture.  Whoever reads this might consider that you might have originated from any one of these distinct evolutions on earth today and chances are, given that you're seeking, you are not soulless and not entirely indigenous to the earth either.  You may already have risen to enlightenment in the deep 'archives' of cosmic history but may have subsequently gotten ensnared here on earth in one of several ways.  When i use the term "angel" i'm not thinking wings.  The wings are symbolic of the "air" and "flight" which symbolises mental power.  The attainment of divine mind is what it's about.... and because that mind can be expanded infinitely through spiritual evolution, there is always a new "angle" of Divine Mind to discover and new dimensions of it to become.  Thus....'angels'.  If an angel is not real then just maybe, you yourself are not real.  So consider that possibility in light of earth's past, present and future.... however you believe that timeline plays out.

Beings of different origins are inhabiting physical human bodies on earth today and obviously, are not all on the same page.  Firstly, there are souls that have arisen over aeons to inhabit, finally, human form and human soul evolution.  These have come through the evolutionary 'ranks' of the mineral, plant and elemental kingdoms.  These souls are on their way up the evolutionary ladder and over aeons, move from sphere to sphere in this solar system to gain experience.  They are here on earth today.

Then there are the spiritual beings who fell from higher realms into the lower planes and now wear physical human bodies.  They got here by a circuitous route having destroyed other planets in their quest for power, before targetting earth.  These beings came here with evil intent to make earth their kingdom, independent of any higher power.  They moved in to take over and control it by severing the chord to spirit on planet earth by many devious means.  So these fallen angels are here today too.  Having fallen with great metaphysical and scientific knowledge they are "wiser in their generation than the children of light". They are totally self- interested, dangerous and cunning.  They are self- programmed to the ways of death and they seek control by programming others in the same ways.  They come bearing gifts, inducements (for us to share their appetites) threats and war as the grossest of their tools of coersion.  They are still here today on earth and in the astral planes.  They form a false hierarchy spanning both planes.

Also, many of the angel devas in etheric realms, who were tending the earth and her evolutions, responded badly to the fallen angels gate crashing the earth and engaged their powers against them.  It was a war fought at psychic levels and eventually included the psychic domination of the earth souls evolving here .  Consequently, the angel devas also fell into duality consciousness, but did so foolishly at first, in defense of their earthly charges.  Eventually, blinded by revenge and hatred,  both sides in this epic battle of 'giants' had 'conscripted' earth humans in their service and both sides were phycically dominating earth souls for their own advantage.  Both sides threw themselves at each other with all psychic and physical means, using infant humanity as fodder.  Humans were genetically altered to limit them ... make them more controllable and useable and, as i understand it, both sides participated in this sacreledge to create the "well engineered fodder" needed to defeat each other.  After falling under the psychic influence of dark, selfish forces, human souls became  willing, faithfull pawns in their "fodderhood" just like they are today.  Easily fooled by appearances and highly pliable.

[The term "fodderhood" gives new meaning to that paternal command you can still hear at my house when my son visits me and i greet him in good humour at the door..... arms outstreched and with a heavy bronx accent..... "give ya fodder'a hug.... cummun... gimme a hug".  I imagine i look more like Billy Crystal doing a zombie.   I dunno, something about the way he runs in mock fear for his life when he sees it... ..straight past me to the refrigerator.]

Sorry, back to more light hearted matters...

Anyway, that epic battle between 'angels' (of different evolution and origin) has all happened in the physical and astral planes and has happened/ is happening over vast cycles of time and space.   Everyone involved has been karmically reduced in power and potency yet war continues on earth in it's many psychic and gross forms.  The karma for genetically altering humanity, was for the warring bands of angels to reincarnate into those genetically altered bodies themselves.   And so they are here today too.   And everyone walks past each other in the street looking pretty much the same to the eyes of flesh.  Human.   But their souls are from different evolutions.  These parties also produced clones who were soulless.  These multiplied and they also are still here today.   If it wasn't for the mindmush of masses of soulless and dumbed down human beings , all the 'left / right' games on every concievable issue could not succeed.   Humans are easily divided because most are divided in their own beings.  All the psychological wounds have produced deep divisions within each individual and these are projected outward in infantile displays of affection for their enemies and pre- judice against their friends. 

Clones were just one tool produced as fodder in a war for the conquest of a planet on which divide and conquer is the main game.   The war rages to this day, in every area of life.  It is obviously not just a war of explosions and physical death, but a war of ideas, soul imprisonment and even soul death.

Lastly, another evolution of souls is on earth today inhabiting human bodies and looking pretty much like everyone else here.  I descibed them in my last post.  They are the 'newcomers' (angels too) who arrived in numbers (legend has it) in an attempt to re- ignite the fallen souls then on earth with the inspiration of their divine identity.  While it can truly be said that "you save yourself", once beings totally lose the heartflame of divine awareness they are lost and have no options left for rising again.   They are totally caught in the loops of duality consciousness, and without a lifeline, they cannot even see the possibility of a higher way.  When all the divine attributes of consciousness are snuffed out and replaced with animal passion, death is the inevitable consequence.... barring a compassionate intercession.  Legend has it that at that time every last soul incarnate on earth had severed themselves from the interior spirit and were living like animals.  A decision was made to give those souls ( the ancient warring parties) an opportunity to truly live and to reach their original estate again.  Those who came to earth in this rescue mission, volunteered to the request from one among them who had the greatest attainment of the divine mind.  That Divine Person had greater knowlege of how earth and her evolutions fits into the greater cosmic scheme and understood the great loss which would ensue and the great suffering that would continue if earth and her evolutions remained adrift in maya, illusion and perpetual conflict.  That compassionate being has been called different names in different cultures.... called "the ancient of days" in the Book of Daniel, and called "Avalokitesvara" in the east ,and today known as Sanat Kumara.

As i wrote in the last post, even that mission has had failure.  Many of these angelic souls who came to assist humanity also fell into duality consciousness and, although many have already risen, many more are still finding their way out.  But the divine memory is returning with the divine self in this cycle and souls are awakening to a new opportunity for ascension.  And many will succeed even in this life.  But very few, if any, will fully master the energies of self in the earth plane, so virtually no- one will consciously dissolve the physical body to ascend.  Only a few have ever done that.  For the majority of those who fulfill the requirements for ascension (ie... the resurrection of the lower- self and the balance of the heartflame of love, wisdom and power) the physical body will still get old and die.  I say, don't be overly concerned about that.  So long as we are balancing the energies that we have sown in ignorance and balancing the heart flame, we will be purging the soul and etheric body (called the "wedding garment" and the "deathless solar body") and raising our vibration in preparation for ultimate union with spirit.  As the physical body withers and dies, the etheric body can still shine during this incarnation and be adequate at 'death' to propell the soul to the etheric plane.  That's the preparation we need.  It is that body of light which is our ticket to the central SUN of being after we pass on.   

But the etheric body is now scarred with the karmic records of all human incarnations.  The grooves of that trauma are now also  impressed upon the mental and astral bodies causing people to get set in their ways and to repeat old patterns.  But love "covers a multitude of sins" and love has arrived in this wave of the holy spirit.  It is gently awakening us to our divine identity and to our heart friends of the ages.  We can now begin to rise above our programming in our interactions with all life and by loving service, transmute the old records of karma.   Stumbling at first we have taken a breath of inner freedom and we know we cannot turn back.  We cannot turn our backs on our inner- God in this cycle of increased opportunity (which will pass) so we are willing to be lead through the valley of the shadow to fulfill the law.  Later we will meet at that bar at the end of the universe (guess who's) and we will take a draught of the greatest love this world has ever known.  We will do that because we will bring it here first.  But even that may not always be recognised for what it is.  So, with a heart for any fate ... onward to the I AM Presence and victory in the ascension... whatever happens just around the next bend.
