Seven Cosmic Laws = Seven Design Principles

I began the second rewrite of my book since I have a better way of organizing it. I’m still debating whether or not to make this book simple and to the point, making it more of an art book with text, or a book that is basically a research paper that’s been published. Many of the books are of this format, taking a concept/thesis and then expanding it and backing it up with research. Unfortunately, a lot of the time the information gets recycled and is written about in different ways. I just finished Tuning the Diamonds: Electromagnetism and Spiritual Evolution by Susan Rennison and it was very similar to David Wilcock’s The Source Field Investigations. Although I suppose the point is that I learned something new from both books. Anyway, I’m leaning towards the art book model because the book is about design principles being applied to the universe; macrocosmically.

 

While researching this past week, I wondered if the esoteric tradition had anything like principles or laws about the cosmos that they followed. Sure enough, the Hermetic tradition has 7 so-called Cosmic laws, and amazingly so they mirror or match the seven design principles I’m working off of! SO I have rewrote my book to be outlined via these laws/principles and I am going to find the research that backs up these laws and put them into these laws/categories. I think that’s the best way to go about this book, since its so complicated in its’ nature. How do you make a model of the universe easy to read and comprehend to those who can’t see inside your brain?
Below is what I have summarized about these laws in my book’s intro:

According to the esoteric Hermetic tradition there are seven cosmic laws. Eerily they mirror or equal the seven design principles that I have applied macrocosmically. These seven cosmic laws are; the principle of SPIRIT (space), the principle of Cause and Effect = Karma (balance); the principle of correspondence or analogy (contrast); the principle of resonance or attraction (emphasis); the principle of Harmony and balance (harmony and proportions); the principle of rhythm or vibration (movement); the principle of Polarity and Sexuality (unity).

I got so very excited!

Weekly Tarot Reading #7

seven of swords – seven of wands – six of cups – fool

Logic, communication, taking a stance/position, the past – return of a friend/lover, risk taker – new start – new beginning.

Seems like I’ll be taking a stance using logic and communication regarding the return of a friend/lover that will harbor a new start. Yes, these things did happen! A project that was put on the backburner took off and the client and I began talking about the project again. Not sure what the seven/wands was pointing to but perhaps it just meant assuming a leadership role.
Next week’s reading –

four of swords – queen/wands – nine.cups – three of cups

Seems like a reconciliation will happen. Something I’ve wanted will come back into the picture, but this event will want me to think about some things before acting.

Moving on…?

Not to make this blog become “emo-centric” but its’ been about three months since I’ve had my heartbroken for the 100th time. I keep asking myself why do I even bother letting my heart feel, if its’ only ever going to end up being broken if I follow those feelings? One of the worst things in the world is still having feelings for someone who certainly doesn’t seem interested in you or at one point did, and isn’t admitting to their feelings. How do you move on from that? How do you get closure for a bond that was once so close and intimate? You can’t. You can only hope that they’ll choose to follow those feelings and come back to you. And so far its’ looking pretty bleak and its hard to say that they’ll come back; but at least the cards say they will. It doesn’t help that whenever I’m away from them it makes me miss them and want to be near them even more. Its’ becoming quite clear to me that I’m not supposed to find the love I seek in this life time and rather it seems like I’m dealing with a bad karmic cycle. Cause this isn’t the first time something like this has happened, it just gets worse and worse each time it does happen. Whatever I did in a previous life must have been pretty bad. One can only hope that they will come back one day….

Employment Mandala

I designed an employment mandala to use in my meditative work to encourage and channel these energies. I seriously need all the encouragement/help I can get. Why not ask the energies to help me out too?

I followed the traditional way to create a mandala using this tutorial and included symbols from the 36 tattvas such as, “Moving” and “Desire”. I included symbols to represent moving, as well as my field (CMYK) and added the skyline from the city I want to work. Let’s see if it does something!

Weekly Tarot Reading #6

5.pentacles – knight.swords – ace.cups – six.swords

Hardships – message/conversation – expressing an emotion – move, travel, distance

Funny how 5/pents came up again. Its been really present cause I am indeed going through a hard time. I am in limbo in so many places in my life and its stressing me out. I also just want to move out really bad :( anyway, the five/pents here could mean that I may get help from and outside source (knight.swords) that will make me happy? and it will cause me to be able to move forward and away from something.  Indeed this reading seemed to be on par with this week. Although the six of swords I think has been labeled as Science before and the internet. We def had problems with the internet. A conversation via email did take place and emotion was expressed.

 

Next week:

seven of swords – seven of wands – six of cups – fool

Logic, communication, taking a stance/position, the past – return of a friend/lover, risk taker – new start – new beginning.

Seems like I’ll be taking a stance using logic and communication regarding the return of a friend/lover that will harbor a new start.

Repertoire of the Cosmos

I read everything I can get my hands on about the cosmos these days. Some of it is pure fiction but some of it has a good vibration and reads as non-fiction. I seem to be attracting more and more people who claim that they are not of this world and need guidance in learning what this feeling means. I have never felt like I was “apart” of this world (if that makes sense) I was always much more mature than my generation and could never really connect to my generation and only to those who are a bit older than I was. I didn’t mind, as I hated drama anyway. Its always weird trying to tell someone you’re close to that you’ve had this otherworldly feeling about yourself since childhood and could never fully explain it, so the internet has help lots in finding like minded people and it seems like more and more people are “waking up” realizing that they too may not be from this world. There is a reason! The major consensus is that earth is undergoing energetic changes and these changes if not gently handled, would have significant problems for humans, energetically. Therefore, higher evolved beings are called to be reincarnated onto earth to balance out these energies and this is why we are sometimes confronted with children who are wise beyond their years, simply because they are! at least their spirit. Anyway, I was one of these children and since childhood I had become determined to figure out what this feeling is and why I am feeling it. Some odd 10 years later I am grateful to have been so determined to finding out otherwise I may not have had that spiritual awakening or found myself better. I have only begun reading more into this after my spiritual awakening as it made me believe that I am seriously being pulled in a specific direction in my life! Sounds crazy I know, but I don’t know how else to explain it. Anyway, here is a repertoire of the cosmos I have started to put together and will continue to add to it once I finish reading a book, watching a documentary or reading an article! >> Repertoire of the Cosmos

 

While reading Tuning the Diamonds I came across a Hindu phrase and I am seriously adopting it once my research become more established, “Paramanu – beyond the atom”. How perfect for a lab that investigates phenomenon beyond the physical??

Is Heaven Real?

An article on thedailybeast.com caught my eye today, titled: “Heaven Is Real: A Doctor’s Experience With the Afterlife” and it was very compelling. Many alchemical woodcut drawings from the 1700’s – 1800’s depict a sky opening and leading up to a place; or a land of light. In William Henry’s book, The Secret of Sion, discusses the existence of a land of light that’s been termed “heaven” in Christian terminology. The doctor may indeed have discovered something truly profound. As one commenter said that what this experience does prove that the doctor has experienced a realm of consciousness that exists outside of the brain – as the bacteria that infected the part that created conscious reality was ultimately inactive, this meant there there is a realm of consciousness interacting with reality. Is this heavenly destination the very same place that is depicted in these alchemical drawings? The skeptic may point out that the alchemical drawings were drenched in symbolism and the alchemical knowledge was actually stored in the images but conveyed in symbolism. Quoting the doctor he describes beings he saw while at this heaven-like place, Higher than the clouds—immeasurably higher—flocks of transparent, shimmering beings arced across the sky, leaving long, streamer-like lines behind them. Depicted in the alchemical image to the left there is a dove at the center top of the image according to Henry a Dove has a cosmic meaning, If we think of John instructing Jesus in some form of stellar knowledge it opens us to the possibility that he was infusing Jesus’ consciousness with the light of certain stars or star systems. In particular, following the flight of the dove will lead us to the Mother Star, Sion. “ Earlier in the chapter Henry states, …Before the cross gained prominence in the fourth century, the second-century church father Clement of Alexandria urged early Christians to use the dove or a fish as a symbol to identify themselves and each other as followers of Jesus. In the alchemical image to the left the dove here may in fact be the cosmic meaning and embodiment of stellar knowledge and thus the center of Sion; the land of light – or heaven. At one point in his book Henry states, For the awakened Gnostic, Christ is a being of light and the Christ narrative is an allegory of a universal internal spiritual experience, the Way of Light.[…] This is the ancient spiritual journey of the Wayshower, Jesus demonstrated. We follow (and will complete) this light path both individually and as a species… The doctor further in the article anaylizes  his experience by saying, Before my experience these ideas were abstractions. Today they are realities. Not only is the universe defined by unity, it is also—I now know—defined by love. The universe as I experienced it in my coma is—I have come to see with both shock and joy—the same one that both Einstein and Jesus were speaking of in their (very) different ways. No matter what way you look at it, in the end it seems we all will be bathed in an explosion of light, color, love, and beauty!

 

I think I may have found my next book too – Proof of Heaven; Eben Alexander – after I finish reading Tuning the Diamonds.

Weekly Tarot Reading 05

5.pents – 9.chalices – moon – 2.pents

hardship – wishes – confusion -decision

Well yes reading this way seems to be better. There was definitely more hardships and hardcore wishing going on. I also had a lot of premonitions/dreams this week (moon) and the decision pointed to what to do about the family bible since I personally thought no one claimed it. But apparently someone may have a connection to it.

 

Next week’s reading:

 

5.pentacles – knight.swords – ace.cups – six.swords

Hardships – message/conversation – expressing an emotion – move, travel, distance

 

Funny how 5/pents came up again. Its been really present cause I am indeed going through a hard time. I am in limbo in so many places in my life and its stressing me out. I also just want to move out really bad 🙁 anyway, the five/pents here could mean that I may get help from and outside source (knight.swords) that will make me happy? and it will cause me to be able to move forward and away from something.

 

Have you ever just really, really, missed someone and you’ve tried everything you can do to distract you but all you can do is think about them? Its making it really hard to move on if all you can do is think about them. I so much want things to get better but as each day goes on and I don’t hear from this person and/or hear from a job opportunity I get more and more convinced that I won’t go anywhere in life and that’s just sad. 🙁

Working with life-form archetypes

Did not write this copied from a PDF

On June 15th 1989 the Swiss company “CIBA-GEIGY” (Basel) got an European patent (No.0351357): without genetic modifications, just with electrostatic fields they can create fossil forms of fish, fern, mushroom …today nobody remembers these experiments anymore…

BACKWARDS IN EVOLUTION:
Heinz Schürch, who watched over the experiments until 1992, shows us some pictures with strange looking plant archetypes of wheat and corn.

The wheat doesn’t grow high, it crawls on the ground, just the tip of the culms (where the spikes are) grows =20cm high.

The corn looks more like the modern corn we know today although it’s much smaller and it has not only two big but up to eight little corncobs growing out of the stem.

The amazing thing is: these archetypes were grown out of grains of the modern plants.

It’s no alchemy or gene technology, it’s just experimenting with plants and electrostatic fields (stress fields, no electric current).

Electric current, would produce a direct biochemical alteration, an electrostatic field does not.

Test arrangement:

Aluminum Plate

Wheat or corn For three days

Aluminum Plate

direct current between the two of them

After three days the grains grow in a pot or a greenhouse like every other plant.

These three days at the beginning of the germination process are enough to set the archetypes.

Electrostatic fields are regulative fields. Nature comes out of chaos; it needs regulative structures to manifest something. This is the idea behind it; a certain electrostatic field brings a certain structure into nature, that’s what we know out of the experiments. But we do not know of any legalities so far. We cannot tell how strong a field it needs (electric field strength) to go back to a certain time in evolution. We don’t even know how it really works. Our theory is, that the plants in the field get information, which makes them go back to the archetypes i.e. the wheat remembers it once was a grass. (In Peru you still can find this type of wheat). “The “new-old” wheat contains new” etc.

This type of wheat could be used in regions where there is a short spring and summer (the modern wheat couldn’t grow there at all): you wouldn’t need to use pesticides or herbicides.

The pest cycle is the same as the one of the modern wheat life.

They would not yet be developed when the “new-old “ wheat is already harvested after 4 to 8 weeks.

The germination rate of the grains is much higher as well.
The “new-old” species could be used to grow plants, which are healthier and more resistant to pests (cross with modern plants).

FERNS:

Heinz Schürch shows us a bowl with something green in it. A look under the microscope reveals “seedlings” of a fern-archetype. They have grown much longer under an electrostatic field than the wheat or the corn. They stayed in the field for approximately one month: the bowl has been kept closed for three years.

These “seedlings” (protallium) are important for the reproduction of ferns. Today there is only one “seedling” per fern-leaf, which becomes pubescent. The other ones are falling to the ground and die. The “seedlings” of this “ur-fern” behave different. They are all connected through a grid-type network. That’s the reason that there is more then one “seedling” which is able to become pubescent. Still we don’t know exactly how this network works. A close look with the microscope shows us this amazing network. The connections between the single “seedlings are always the shortest possible way. It almost looks like somebody created it with the intention to save material. The tubes between the heart-shaped plants are ultra-thin, very straight and are shining, silvery.

There is no information about these tubes in any scientific literature. We assume they are used to transmit information between these plants. But we don’t have a clue what kind of information this could be. More secrets are to be found in the growing process of the fern itself. The “seeding” of a common worm fern grew into another type of fern after being in the electrostatic field. Instead of pinnate leafs it had rounded ones (like tongues). Since these leafs are known from fossils, the new-old fern was named “Ur-fern” (ancient fern). The spores of the ancient fern were examined and they didn’t show any similarities with “modern” ferns. Scientists still didn’t believe in the possibility of altering plants by use of an electrostatic field.

In the following years the ancient fern grew different leafs every year, it nearly looked like, the fern remembered that it was created out of a worm fern. It seemed that the fern was going through the whole process of evolution in his growing process. We examined all it’s new spores, they were all the same. But out of them grew different kinds of ferns. There were: worm ferns, beach fern, some south African leather ferns, …The ancient fern seemed to be able to develop every kind of fern. The biggest surprise awaited us, when we came to analyze the chromosomes. The worm fern had 36, another one had 41. In all of scientific literature we never heard of anything like this. Another amazing, new, not- fern-like thing was, that every evening the fern would emit scents.

Many ferns are dying out these days. That makes the ciba-Geigy-experiments extra valuable. For example in Germany there are more than 12% endangered fern-species. Ferns are extremely sensitive to environmental pollution. A possible explanation (the reason for that) might be, that the atmosphere of the earth used to be different back in the days when ferns ruled the world. There were more and stronger thunderstorms and the electric fields in the earth’s atmosphere changed often. It could be, that every time we use an electrostatic field with the ferns, we create a condition of a time long ago when this field did exist. But this is only a theory.

If I can change the set of chromosomes and grow ancient (long dead) plants just by using a simple electrostatic field, I have to pronounce the question whether all the information about the shape of creatures is really in the genes, the DNA, the nucleus? I think the electrostatic charging of the atmosphere is also a factor.

The memory of nature seems to go back to the very beginnings of life. BRINGING BACK THE SAURIANS?

Out of a drilling-core, which came from depths of 140m. In a 200 million year old Rhine- salt-mine, was taken a probe. Analyzing this probe under a microscope shows us bazaar crystal forms out of which grows tiny creatures. These are mushrooms, which came back into life through an electrostatic field. All experiments to bring them back without the field didn’t work out.

Heinz Schürch shows us a patent, the only announcement of the company in which they talk about the electrostatic fields.

We didn’t want to experiment with plants only but also with animals. But we got the strict instruction not to mess with the germ line of animals. That’s why we thought of taking the eggs of a rainbow trout and put them into a field for four weeks after their impregnation. After four weeks we put them into aquariums and raised them. The result are fish, which are much stronger and robust than our rainbow trout. They have more teeth and a different color. Grown males have a hook-jaw (like wild salmons). They behave wilder and more aggressive. We needed to heighten the fence around the aquarium because the fish would jump higher. They are an archetype of our trout’s, dead since 150 years (they were identified with the aid of old drawings).

The flesh of the fish is firmer and more delicate. The fish are more resistant to disease. That’s why there is no need to put antibiotics or pesticides into the water. There is a standing joke in the company about bringing back the dinosaurs.
Heinz Schürch: “It is just a joke. I wouldn’t dare do it. You can’t control a dinosaur. We would just have to use bird-eggs, for the birds are the descendants of the saurian.

But we don’t even know how these fields are working.”

Answers to this question will still have to wait, as the CIBA-GEIGY-team doesn’t exist anymore.

EUROPEAN PATENT APPLICATION Improved Fish-Farming

A new procedure is described, based on the short-term application of electrostatic fields, which results in useful and desirable qualities of fish.

Description:
Aquariums (insulator) with fish-eggs are put between two electrodes of a capacitor. The direct voltage can vary from 1 to a couple of 10000 volts.

Because there is no electric current, the chemical identity of the system “fish” is not altered.

The eggs stay in the field until the “little” fish start to slip. Then they are brought into bigger aquariums and raised. These fish are more vital and grow up earlier than the ones, which were not put into an electrostatic field. The most used voltage varies between 100- 10000V(most special: 300-3000V) the distance between the electrodes depends on the size of the aquarium, but preferable it should be between 1-10cm.

Frustration/Rant

Okay. I’m gonna go and rant about how frustrated I am about not finding a job. I AM SO FREAKING FRUSTRATED.

First, I don’t know what to do to make me stand out even more. I don’t even get called to an interview and yet, I match all the descriptions in the job listing.

That’s what’s frustrating. Each day goes by and I keep wondering if I’ll ever move out of my parents’ house and be on my own.

I want a job not only to fulfill a childhood dream, but I want a job so I could move out and move back near my friends. Being isolated 6 hours away doesn’t do me any good.

And no I’m not impatient, this will be my second year straight of applying to jobs and I haven’t really gotten any calls. I was so damn close with the SBT job but that slipped through my fingers and they hired someone else last minute.

I apologize for a whiney post, but I really can’t take it anymore. I apply to about 3-5 jobs daily/weekly and I don’t even get a call. I want to do something with my life but if I just sit around and do nothing that doesn’t really motivate me much. I even compare myself to my classmates that are hired… how in the world did they land the job and I didn’t? What don’t I have that they do? Experience probably… but even then the most common rejection note I get is that my background is impressive but I don’t match the company image!! What the hell! Don’t they know designers are supposed to be known to be adaptable to change and other styles?? Isn’t my work varied enough that I do have my own style as well as a clean style??
My goal was the end of the summer and I almost made that goal, but now my other goal is to find a job by Thanksgiving. I want nothing more right now than to move out and finally be on my own.

Weekly Tarot Reading 04

Recap:

6/swords – 8/chalices – world – knight chalices

 

SIGH. it looks like I’ll be moving forward with something. Something will come to an end by a message with good/romantic intentions. Again, this can only point to one thing and one thing only, but after the last two fails of predicting it, I doubt it will be this week. But who knows, I’m not really sure how else to predict it. Perhaps it’ll mean something else. Hmm, this could be pointing to the fact that we traveled (6/swords) to cape cod today, a place (world) we were missing (8/chalices) and loved (knight of chalices).

 

Next week’s reading:

 

5.pents – 9.chalices – moon – 2.pents

hardship – wishes – confusion -decision

 

Gonna read a bit differently and write down what keywords come to mind when the cards are drawn.

 

2012 Cosmic Convergence

This is the design I did for the 2012 Cosmic Convergence Festival that Giorgio A. Tsoukalos (from Ancient Aliens) and his goonies are hosting. I hope I win. I doubt it but this is what I came up with. I don’t think the colors are what they’re after but I think the theme is appropriate enough. I find out next week.

 

I’m glad it seems like my skills aren’t slipping through my fingers. I just really haven’t been motivated, energized or inspired enough to do much freelancing. Being constantly rejected from employers doesn’t do well on my confidence in my work. I just seem to have lost everything that was going for me during the last semester of college. Its frustrating, I just hope that sacrificing a good portion of my social life for my future career doesn’t go to waste and I end up landing a job at someplace awesome soon. Sigh.
