I received this from my friend Nigel Taylor:  The Year 2012 according to Sai Baba. An extract from a 2010 conversation between a reporter and the social and spiritual reformer of India, Sathya Sai Baba.

Question: “Have you heard of the year 2012 like a year where something will happen?”

Baba:  The truth is that the planet has been changing its vibratory state, and this change has intensified since the year 1989 where the magnetic poles have moved the last 20 years more than the past 2000. Well, in one way there are several prophecies that signal this date like a term or important conclusion in the history of humanity, but the most significant is the end of the Mayan calendar, which prophecy has been interpreted in different ways. The most negative ones think that during this year the world will end, but it will not be like that, it is known that during that year a new era will start, the Age of Aquarius.   Continue reading →

Last night’s full moon was dubbed a Supermoon, thanks to a fluke of orbital mechanics that brought the moon closer to Earth than that it has been in more than 18 years.  It really did look bigger.  I was just completing final layout on the April Horizons Magazine and really wanted to get down to the beach to watch the moon rise, but I just could not make myself get in motion to leave the property.  This is when I appreciate my humble jungle here, where I have room to roam and explore and don’t have to dress to go out and be prepared to socialize.  Don’t get me wrong, I am as gregarious as they come, but I talk to a lot of people during the course of a day.  At the end of the day, I am usually talked out and don’t want to hear another voice, especially my own.  So when I can escape into the silence of my oak woods under the light of the full moon, I jump at the chance.   Continue reading →

Joan Crawford

Last night I did something on a whim that I’ve never done before.  I shaved my eyebrows off.  Completely.  I figured they’ll grow back in a couple of weeks.  It makes it easier to draw them on while I am experimenting with finding a light enough brow color to wear.  My brows are getting more sparse as time goes on, and I’ve been wearing brow color at times to define them.  Even using the lightest shades, I end up looking like Joan Crawford because my natural brows are so high and wide.   In the 90′s, a hairdresser friend wanted to wax my brows, so I let her.  I figured they would grow back.  Well, they really didn’t.  The good news is I only have to tweeze about 6 stray hairs every few months.  The bad news is that she waxed so much underneath the brows that they have ever after been the thinner brow that I don’t care for.   But I’ve gotten used to it and it’s no big deal. By age 55 they began coming in again.   Continue reading →

I wrote earlier at My experience with Cansema, a natural skin cancer remedy that I was ready to begin a new session of treatment with it.  On Thursday, February 24, 2011 at about 8:00am I applied to to a spot on my right leg, below and to the outer side of the knee.  By 8:45am I could feel a slight burning.  Oh, I should have taken a photo of that mark before I caked the Cansema on it…  It just looked like a flat mole that was just a little bit darker than the skin around it.  I applied Cansema on it in 2003 and it reacted big time but I wondered if there was any more in there.  We’ll see.   Continue reading →

I just bought some Amazon Salve, formerly known as Cansema (bloodroot.)  I used it in 2002 and 2011 for some facial skin cancers with great result.  It’s a thick black paste which you apply to the spot.  There are no adverse reactions and it cannot harm healthy skin.  But on cancerous cells, it turns all black and weird and crusty and if you don’t read about it beforehand, you’ll freak yourself out.   I found my notes from 2002 and wanted to share my experience with you.  (My notes from 2011 are here.)  Also below you will find the instructions for using Cansema.

They have machines that tell where the “pre-cancers” or actinic keratoses (sun damage) is, but I saw mine in my aura and that told me where to apply the paste. Everywhere I had one, it reacted, so my self-diagnosis was accurate.  In 2-6 weeks, it pulled out the diseased tissue and turned into a black cornflake on my face then fell off. I had one on the tip of my nose, and looked like a panda for 2 weeks. One below my knee took 6 months to heal because it is below the heart and has less circulation than my face.  Here are my journal entries about it:   Continue reading →

My friend Domino said to me the other day, “I’m real good in a crisis situation.  I know how to take charge and get things done.  If it was the end of the world, I’d help everyone stay calm.  I’d save everyone. I’d be like Will Smith. “  I thought that is all well and good if someone announces on Tuesday that the end of the world will be here on Friday.  But that’s not how it happens. Maybe we just wake up one day and have no power and no cable and no internet and no phone and have no way of knowing what’s going on.  We keep thinking it will all be back on in a minute.  Maybe after a few days of that, we step outside and begin talking to our neighbors.  Maybe we find out they aren’t so annoying after all.  Maybe we make a new friend and it feels good to have a friend when we’re in an unknown situation.  It feels good to support each other in this.  Maybe we begin to hear rumors that it’s the end of the world and we see that some people are very afraid and beginning to panic.  We can help by turning their thoughts to more pleasant things.  We can remind them that no matter what’s going on, it will pass soon and we’ll be on the other side of it.   We can ask them to talk about hopes they have for the future, once this situation has passed.  We can ask them to recall the happy times in their lives, and get them vibrating in a better feeling place.  We can help them be hopeful, because when we are hopeful, we attract a more satisfying experience to ourselves.   That’s the most important thing  we can do in a crisis.   Continue reading →

I’m like everyone else.  The Universe is sending me messages all the time but I’m not always in the receiving mode, so I don’t always “get it.”  Only when it comes back around again and again and again in the form of different people do I finally drop my blinders and begin to see what’s been playing out in front of me.  I have to laugh at my own blindness because it reminds me to be more aware in each moment.  That every moment contains so much more than I can quickly grasp, unless I’m paying attention.  And, as it turns out,  that’s what it’s all about.  Paying attention in each moment.
