Clap your hands! Life is good! If this statementdoes not feel right to you….read on. Imaginationis the birthmother of hell or heaven. Imaginationis an activity of mind that has the power to formreality after reality. If you allow your mind to roamthrough the darkness of negativity, then hell is yourreality. If you allow yourself to imagine happiness,health, abundance, then heaven is not only possible,it is inevitable. In the midst of the world, there isplenty of room for you to create your world ofcomfort, happiness and peace. Life is good if yousee the good!

There is a new wind moving, do you feel it?

From our readersDear Whole Person Magazine, In reference to “The Fat Blunder” article in the April 2013 issue: “The Eskimos mostly ate their meat raw. It is the cooking at high temperatures that makes meat bad for you (scientific explanation at www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/factsheet/Risk/cooked-meats). High tempera-ture is defined as 300 F, so cooking in a slow cooker or stew below that is okay. The book “The Vegetarian Myth: Food, Justice, and Sustainability” by Lierre Keith is an eye opening discus-sion on meats and fats and how they effect health of the human and the planet.” ---

WP: Eric, your youth, will you share a bit with us about what was it like?

EP: I was smaller.

WP: [Laughs] Indeed.

EP: God, I was trouble.

WP: How so?

EP: I wanted to do what I wanted to, and I did what I wanted to do.

WP: Did you grow up on the East Coast or out this way?

EP: New Jersey, South Jersey, and I was just a, just….

WP: …a handful!

EP: To put it nicely, a handful.

WP: Maybe two handfuls.

EP: [Laughs] Yes, two handfuls and a spoon full of sugar.

WP: And family life, mom, dad? Were they the primary caregivers?

EP: Yes I grew up with my parents. When I was two and a half my mother was preg-nant again and gave birth to twins. When delivered, she brought one home and one had to stay in an incubator for about two weeks because she was a little smaller. So one was home and two weeks later another one came home and suddenly I felt that I wasn’t getting ALL of the attention that I was used to.

WP: That must have been very traumatiz-ing.

EP: Yes, I remember, I was not happy and my mother said to me, “Well you said you wanted a little brother and a sister.” I re-member until this day putting my hands on my hips and looking way up high at her because I was two and a half and I said, “I want a little brother or a sister. Take one back!” But she would not do it.

WP: No. That is a cute story. May we jump to schooling, was that back East?

EP: I grew up in mostly Cherry Hill, New Jersey. I went to schools there and when I graduated I wanted to go to school in Cal-ifornia. We had a big loud argument about it. My mother did not want me outside of her control. But my grandfather had moved to Florida, so she let me go to school to Florida; big mistake. In Florida my grand-father told me that if I wanted to go to school in Israel for a year he would send me there. So I went to Israel which is much farther away than California. I got there not expecting anything, and that year turned out to be the most beautiful and exciting of my life.

WP: Very nice. Whereabouts in Israel?

EP: I was in Jerusalem, one year there, then I came back and I finished my third and fourth year of college here in the U.S. Then I came to California. I had no idea what I wanted to do. In not knowing what I wanted to be, I ended up being intro-duced to a chiropractor who explained its concept which is that when the brain and nervous system are not communicating properly with the body, those areas of the body function at less than 100%…there-

fore people become sick or “dis-eased”; and when you remove the interference from the spine so that the brain and ner-vous system flows normally with the rest of the body, they become well again. So I said that makes so much sense, I think I will do that. I practiced as a Doctor of Chi-ropractic here for twelve years and then the healings had begun.

WP: Let’s expand on this. I remember reading your earlier book “The Reconnec-tion” in which you shared that you had your practice, and suddenly there you were in your office and magical things started happening. I’d like to come to that point because it was a revelatory place. People were saying it felt like you were working on them but you weren’t in the room, those kinds of experiences.

EP: Yes, it all pretty much happened at once. I was upstairs here at my house. I was awakened in the middle of the night by a very bright light and I opened my eyes to see what it was. The lamp next to my bed decided to turn itself on. I figured it was electrical. But I felt as if I were being watched. I told myself that it was my imag-ination. One day when I went into my of-fice, seven of my patients independently of one another, started telling me that they were feeling people in the room with them. That they were being watched and could feel multiple sets of hands simultaneously. Their eyes would dart back and forth; they were seeing colors, smelling flowers.

That’s when I started reporting healings. People in wheel chairs, poor vision, people with epilepsy, cerebral palsy, could walk run and play, speak normally, not have sei-zures anymore not needing medications. A wonderful thing about Reconnective

A glimpse into Dr. Pearl and an introduction to his new book (ten years since his previous), “Solomon Speaks on Reconnecting Your Life”, co-authored with Frederick Ponzlov. Dr. Pearl shares about the new information he has received as channeled by Mr. Ponzlov and how Reconnective Healing is expanding. IntervIewed by tony CamaCho

Reconnecting Humanity Dr. Eric Scott Pearl

�Healing, is there are no adverse side ef-fects. People started asking me to teach this. People in their families started having real dramatic healings from that also. So I decided I would agree to teach this. But I had discovered something prior to that which is what led to the book “Solomon Speaks”, and that part I was not really tell-ing a whole lot of people.

WP: Prior to that, had you considered yourself a spiritual man?

EP: Not particularly. I like to go out and have a few too many drinks and tell some off color jokes. I was not planning on giv-ing up my worldly goods, walking around in a loin cloth with a staff by my side and…no thank you!

WP: So you had this experience, now people were healing…and then you decide to embark upon a strategy to begin teach-ing it.

EP: Well, I was trying to figure out why it happened to me. I would not have picked me, except maybe for the fact that I discov-ered that I have an ability to talk about it. I was able to talk to the people on the beach wearing earrings and turbines around their heads, and I was able to put on a nice jack-et and a tie, pull my hair back in a ponytail and talk to doctors and researchers. People can look at me and see their shortcomings and say, “If he could do it, I could do it.”

WP: I always think that those individuals, who have these experiences, have the abil-ity to look back over your shoulder and in the wake of whatever carnage might be there, use the enormous amount of wis-dom from it all to bring to into your pro-cess then a wonderful gift that you get to share. This brings me to something you shared earlier that I would like you to touch on. The idea that there was some informa-tion that you came upon that you had not fully come forth in sharing before recent-ly.

EP:Yes. I have had this patient Fred Pon-zlov who had gone out of town. Now somewhere during the time when he was out of town, the healings had begun. And I held my hands sort of near him to feel the healing frequencies that I started feeling. He did not know anything about them. His head jerked, his eyes rolled back up into his skull, his mouth open, arms were out to the side started moving just a little bit, started swaying. His tongue was mov-ing in a way that was clearly forming vow-els‒speaking except that I could not really hear him besides an air sound that escaped

through his mouth. Well I watched, and I played with that for a while. I was able to get the air sounding louder and softer, it was kind of fun.

WP: [Laughs] You could turn up the vol-ume as you chose.

EP: Yes, but I could not hear the words. I realized that the other patients were wait-ing for me so I had to stop. So I said, “Fred, I think we are finished now.” He opened his eyes; I didn’t know what to say.

WP: So you thought you were done, and next patient…

EP: When he came in next, same thing happened. This time the air condensed it-self into a voice. The voice said, “We are here to tell you to continue doing what you are doing. What you were doing is bringing light and information onto the planet.” Fred jumped up off the table, stood with his arms out and his back against the wall blocking the wall from me because he thought I was going to call the mental hos-pital. He explained this voice has been try-ing to come through him since he was young. So I thought alright. Three days lat-er three other patients came in, eyes jerked, heads rolled, mouths opened, tongues moved, air came out. I knew that on their next visit they would speak also, and they did.

WP: Did you interpret that as these indi-viduals were channeling?

EP: I don’t know whether I would have known that term. It was clear that the voice that was coming through them was not theirs. Because the three other voices said the same first two phrases that Fred said, “We are here to tell you to continue doing what you were doing. What you were do-ing is bringing light and information onto the planet.” Then two of them added, “What you were doing is reconnecting strands.” One of them added, “What you are doing is reconnecting strings.” Then Fred came back a few days later and con-fessed about some automatic handwriting. I asked what it wrote. He shared that they said “Do not underestimate the powers of Dr. Eric Scott Pearl. What he is doing is reconnecting strings.” Two of the patients said strands and one said strings. I knew already that strands had to mean DNA so I thought it was a mistake. So I asked Fred if he was sure it said strings. He said “I think so.” Half of the people were saying strands and half of the people were saying strings.

WP: Or they were synonymous?

EP:Yes, synonymous is what I was think-ing, and a few years later I found out about string theory’s simultaneous planes of ex-istence. So now I go with DNA strands simultaneous planes of existence. Again years later, I found out about some re-search and I was privileged enough to lis-ten to it and meet Lynne McTaggart who wrote “The Field”.

WP: A great read and awesome info!

EP: I started talking and looking at the research that she had been studying and found more on the work of Doctors Karl H. Pribram and Karl S. Lashley who show us that the brain does not work the way we were taught. We recognize today that the information in our brain is diffused throughout the brain and not sequestered into little circles of described areas. And we also access that information from what science calls Zero Point Field. The field of information that we are all in, and is within us. We are in the field of information. So people who are in the field…people who are geniuses…people who are psychic…and people who are healers…it is not all that different.

WP: Rupert Sheldrake comes to mind.

EP: Yes, I know Rupert.

WP: He’s done a lot of work at that level in terms of connecting. Someone is sens-ing that someone is staring at them or communicating with your pets and so forth. It has been remarkable informa-tion.

EP: So strings and strands, later on we found out through a lot of research, I think six independent studies internationally so far, have shown that Reconnective Heal-ing actually restructures, or as I like to say, reconnects our DNA, and changes the light emissions to a higher and more coher-ent vibration. So here we are in a few strands. Think for instance how a comput-er works. So if our brains are our hardware and our DNA are our software, what we are doing, which our studies demonstrate and confirm, is the equivalent of a human software upgrade allowing for better ac-cess to the information within the brain and more comprehensive access to that multidimensional Zero Point Field. We hen interacting with the Reconnective Healing frequencies, we are facilitating for others, and receiving for ourselves at the same time, this upgrade.

WP: How would you explain this being connected to our level of awareness or our expanded consciousness?

EP: Well, by becoming more aware of the field our attention goes there and since we go where our attention goes then we are becoming more multidimensional beings in the process. It eventually gives us insight into it. I talk about this at the end of the book, that this shows up in the form of physical healings because that is what we allowed ourselves to recognize. It is like the smell of Mrs. Fields cookies when you walk by, because they leave their door open and they have a fan that blows the scent of the cookies out and a white chocolate mac-adamia nut grabs you by the nose and pulls you in. Get inside and they have other goodies too. The physical healings are what attracted us, and they are highly valu-able but they are only one tiny, tiny, tiny micro percentage of the gift of this. They were the indicators of the gift like the dash-board is the indicator that the car is work-ing, but the dashboard is not the car driv-ing. The real gift is that I believe that we are standing as humanity on the precipice of the next level of human evolution, and that human evolution is us reconnecting to the truth and essence, purity and beauty of

who and what we are. Call it our God-selves , call it love, call it the intelligence of the universe. What we tend to experience may be in-between life times. We are re-connecting with that…and learning how to bring that into our lives to manifest that here and now in physical form.

WP: So many terms for the God part of us or our divinity. How do you, or do you see that correlating with the Kundalini en-ergy in you?

EP: Kundalini energy is really just an in-dicator that you are stepping into this space. Part of the problem that I found in the beginning when I did this work is that I would go asking the experts, looking out-ward, to explain what it is. I would share what was going on in peoples bodies mov-ing around, voices coming through them; and the healings are happening and all of these different things and physical re-sponses to it and what I noticed, was that everyone tried to fit this into their own box. They could not take it out of their own box. I went to the top people in the Kabbalah, they tried to fit it into the Kab-balah box. I went to the top Yoga and Yo-gis, they tried to fit into that box. People that work with chakras tried to fit it into

that box. People that work with Kundalini tried to fit it into that box. The thing is this is so huge, it is so immense, that all of those boxes fit into this. So it as if each of those were little tool boxes and they all had their little tools on how to do it and they kept looking at this and trying to and to figure out how this was another tool that can fit into their little tool boxes. What they don’t realize is that all of the tool boxes fit into this. And it took me so long to understand that. I just knew that people were not get-ting this.

WP: What led you to that understand-ing?

EP: Witnessing without judgment. Wit-nessing what it was without labeling what it was or defining what it was, it began to demonstrate itself as what it was. You see the healings, and people’s chakras spin. You see the healings, the Kundalini hap-pens. You witness the Reconnective Heal-ing and people tend to come out of saying I don’t know where I was, I was not awake I was not asleep I was somewhere so much more real‒saw red lakes, gold lakes and purple lakes, smelled the flowers and there is just more!

WP: Yes, it is an amazing process. And

has it evolved into more than what it was 10 years ago?

EP: It continues to expand because more and more of it is making itself present and accessible to us. Here is a sort of analogy. I’d like to find one that does not have the limitations of this, but if you will. It is like stepping into the pool that you are filling with water and the water is up to the an-kles, but it keeps filling so then it comes up to the calves then it comes up to the knees and then it comes up to the waist, chest, so by that time when people step into the pool it does not start at the ankle level for them because there is just more in the pool. So people who learned this work in the 90’s, people who learned this work in 2005 and people who will learn this work in 2015 when they get there, they are going to step in and the pool will be higher and higher and higher so the people in 2015 won’t know necessarily have to start where the people in 2002 started.

WP: Would you attribute that at some lev-el to the notion of the whole frequency of the planet being elevated and in turn as a result of that the invitation that you or I, in the general public are also being invited to move into that space.

EP: Time is expanding. As time expands,

Every person on the planet is born with both an egoic and spiri-tual identity. The egoic identity is the one most of us presume our-selves to be, while our spiritual identity often remains hidden, or even if it’s obvious to us, it is not the self we l ive through most of our l ives. Experiencing our en-lightenment – meaning our com-plete identif ication with our spiri-tual selves – is demonstrated by responding to every experience with love. Since this love (or God beingness) is already inside us, it means that each of us is born al-ready enlightened. The key is f ind-ing a way to l ive through this ex-pression of love in every moment we can. So with this uncovering of enlightenment in mind, here are three exercises to make our spiri-tual selves our primary identity while relegating our ego to a back-seat position.

1– Slow Down. Recognize that l iving with our egos is l ike driving a car 90 miles-per-hour, almost all the time. We are so accustomed to l iving our l ives this way that things become a blur because we are mov-ing so fast that we don’t realize what we’re consciously thinking

and doing. As everything races by, we miss the important details of l ife and instead are obsessed with our need to control our future and repair our past. In addition to our personal ego, we also share a group ego, and in our society this in-cludes an inordinate amount of rushing. Our days are planned in advance and even our personal meditations are scheduled events with specif ic time periods.

Our ego does not want us to slow down and allow us to identify with our spiritual center. Instead it wants to f il l our time and mind ev-ery day and all day long. That’s why emptying our thoughts in medita-tion can be diff icult. Our ego mind does not want to be quiet and just observe and be objective. It’s al-ways got to be somewhere other than where we are now, but in real-ity, our Godly mind knows there is no such thing as time – and very l ittle purpose in rushing. As long as our ego can prevent us from liv-ing in the present, it obscures who we really are and hides our enlight-enment from us.

2 – Be more conscious. As we slow down, we experience that consciousness gives us the abil ity

to more objectively observe our thoughts, feelings, motivations, goals and actions, etc. Daily medi-tation, or the observing of our thoughts during a specif ic time pe-riod, is only part of this exercise, which many people f ind diff icult. Indeed, daily meditation requires a leap towards enlightenment, but small steps can be more effective.

One key concept is to always be observant of even the sl ightest negative feeling or upset we feel. Let’s say a co-worker or a mate says or does something that makes us angry. As we recognize the upset in our body, it becomes a signal to practice being conscious. The up-set itself can be very sl ight but should be fully experienced as op-posed to being pushed away. Then as our feelings subside, look at the situation and objectively ask, “What just happened?” This ques-tion allows us to move away from simply blaming the other person and instead allows us to observe what is going on inside ourselves. Remember… DO NOT FOCUS ON THE OTHER PERSON!

Even the sl ightest negative feeling is to be carefully examined. We may feel only mildly annoyed but

Three Steps to Enlightment

stil l must be honest with ourselves and look at the very deep and real feelings that l ie beneath a minor annoyance, which might mean we feel belittled, not good enough, or unloved. Just considering these feelings, rather than simply mov-ing on, means we are able to ob-serve a situation in a way that we haven’t before.

In my experience counseling peo-ple, it’s almost universal that a per-son dismisses the idea that they’re experiencing any negative feeling unless it’s overwhelming. Instead of dealing with the dismissed feel-ing, they rationalize that the inci-dent that caused their discomfort is so minor that it does not warrant a negative feeling (as if emotions work that way). However, when we do acknowledge the feeling, the re-sult of our observation is incredi-bly l iberating. Even if we’re not ready to forgive the person who disturbed us, we get a glimpse into our reaction and that opens the door to other possibil it ies. Just looking at other ways of reacting to a situation is a step towards lov-ing ourselves, and the more we practice observing, the more layers of old patterns and ego are re-moved, bringing us closer to un-derstanding and obtaining our en-lightenment.

3 – Recognize that I am the l ight of the world. God, or what-ever terms we might use to de-scribe our spiritual selves, has cre-ated us in its own image and therefore we deserve respect and reverence. This Godly part of us serves as a l ight unto the world. This may sound highly egoic and

the opposite of humility, but in re-ality it’s just a fact. If we believe a divine force creates us, how can we not ref lect that divinity?

Recognizing that we are God’s presence in this physical world means accepting who we really are rather than identifying with our self-created and constantly crit ical ego. This gives us greater mean-ing, respect and responsibil ity in our l ives. Our true reason for be-ing is to bring this divine l ight into the physical world, however we might express it. It doesn’t mean we have to give up our current l ives and devote them towards sav-ing the planet. Rather it’s as simple as doing all the things we are al-ready doing, but acting with our new perception of reality. If we consider ourselves as a l ight unto the world, we move closer to rec-ognizing our true, enlightened, spiritual self.

There’s a Talmudic saying that as we walk down the street, angels walk in front of us, harking to the world, “Behold, here comes the creation of God.” Accepting this as who we are means remembering our true identity, and through this recognition, we peel back our ego-ic selves and reveal to us and the world, the enlightened being of God that we are, have always been, and will remain for the rest of our l ives and beyond.

On July 4th we celebrate Indepen-dence Day with fireworks, march-ing bands and picnics. An annual reminder and op-portunity to appre-ciate the freedoms we enjoy as indi-viduals and a na-tion. Conversely, the recent shooting rampages, bomb-ings, and scandals regarding person-al privacy vs. pub-lic safety are urg-ing a dialogue about where the fears about domes-tic acts of terror be-gin and personal

freedom end.

Having spoken with thousands (and possibly millions) of spirits during my lifetime, I’ve come to understand that although we think that our thoughts and actions are completely our own, they’re not. The spirits are adding their com-munications to the barrage of wireless data streams moving through and around us at all times. Just because we don’t always re-ceive the messages clearly, doesn’t mean that the spirit network and the information on it aren’t always present and available.

If we’re will ing to consider that the spirit and body and heaven and earth aren’t polar opposites but can exist together at the same time in the same network, we can allow freedom and independence to coexist with responsibil ity and interdependence. It is this con-cept which inspired me to write The Spirits’ Declaration of Inter-dependence.

BY MEDIUM HOLLISTER RAND

The spirits are aware that we are fearful people (which could be why they often use signs and sig-nals to communicate rather than stun us with sudden appearanc-es). The spirits also understand our human need to organize the world in a simplist ic Sesame Street way: up–down, bad–good, l ife–death. However, rather than supporting the increase in polar-izat ion, the spirits continual ly suggest a third way. . . the mid-dle road of interdependence.

The Spirits’ Declaration of Interdepedence Your Loved Ones on the Other Side are Still Part of Your World

21

We hold these truths to be self-evident:

1. That we remain interested in the details of your l ife: noticing the new dress you bought for a special occasion, the “to do” list that needs to get done, the leak under the kitchen sink, the hob-bies that we enjoy with you.

2. That we notice what you do for us in love: carrying a photo, l ight-ing a candle, creating a charity, sharing stories with friends (and we’ll even allow you to exagger-ate a bit).

3. That we hear you when you talk to us before going to bed and in the car while driving to work. We answer sometimes through a song on the radio or the inspired words of a stranger.

4. That we want you to laugh knowing that your returning joy is a celebration of our l ives, and grief needn’t be the only expres-sion of your love.

5. That when we come to you in dreams, it is a real visit and not your imagination.

6. That by healing the diseases of addiction, the betrayal of abuse in your own lives, and forgiving us for fail ing you and ourselves, wholeness touches us here and

changes the path of those who come after you.

7. That although we won’t inter-fere with your free will or that of others, we can help guide your decisions and work from this side to bring harmony instead of dis-cord (we can’t rewrite wills yet from the other side, so don’t ask for that one).

8. That we will be there for the holidays, the birthdays, the fam-ily reunions. We will walk you down the aisle at your wedding and share the joy when a baby joins the family. We especially l ike smiling at the babies who smile back.

9. That your love and thoughts don’t keep us from moving on, but give us wings to f ly to the farthest reaches of the universe while stil l keeping us close to you. We can be in two places at once, you know.

10. That no matter how we passed, even if we ended physical l ife by our own hand, we will be waiting for you. And, yes, we will be to-gether again . . . someday.

God is as close to you as your next breathSoul Transcendence is becoming aware of yourself as a Soul and as one with God, not as a theory but as a living reality. Your Soul is who you truly are; it is more than your body, your thoughts, or your feelings. MSIA provides tools and techniques for experiencing your Soul and your own Divinity. We focus on how to incorporate spirituality into everyday life in a workable way. We call it “practical spirituality.” It allows you to tune more and more to your Soul and to increasingly live from that awareness.

“All that you want to be, you already are. All you have to do is move your awareness there and recognize the reality of your own Soul.”

s a peer mentor, peer advocate and educator, I’ve worked with people aspiring to erase the stigma involved in mental health and realize their full potential. During the process, I have learned that to truly realize our high-est potentials, we need to engage in transformative interactions with other people who share our aspiration to evolve. One way to do this is through peer support such as mutual support groups and peer mentoring.

These are ways to bring down the walls that isolate us. Mutual aid means we listen to and support one another as a commu-nity of equals, without any professional trying to define who we are. Each of us is an expert on our own experience, and each of us is the center for our decisions…and we are not alone.

In today’s “modern” world indepen-dence has become almost a religion and the idea that we need other people for anything seems l ike a “weakness”. The reality is that we are social crea-tures and our abil ity to co-exist with one another depends on our will ing-ness to abide within a matrix of shared values and agreements about what is important, and most importantly, what is acceptable behavior. As individuals, we resemble the meadow f lower in that though we are distinct as people, we are not separate. While our expres-sions of l ife f luctuate, we can stil l be a

part of the lustrous whole by recogniz-ing our interconnectedness and inner beauty through self-awareness and community building.

and our responses to other people in the moment. It is through sharing our insights and understandings that we come to strengthen our community amid potentially al ienating environ-ments and circumstances, that we pos-itively build on the self in the manner of spiritual alchemists who turn the lead of experience into the gold of re-alization and awareness.

The alternative approaches to mental health, with peer support groups and peer mentoring, are growing today more than ever, with Vet to Vet, Re-covery International, Wildf lowers’ Movement, The Icarus Project, Alco-holics Anonymous and other 12-Step groups, etc. These groups, or aff il ia-tions, are organically born out of deep, holistic understanding based on mu-tual experiences. They transcend ac-cepted notions of normality in favor of the wild color that is diversity grown from compassion. In vast meadows thriving with l ife, f lowers bloom as a natural consequence of the environ-ment. While perhaps of the same spe-cies, each blossom retains its own na-ture, and opens its colors to the sky as if offering to the great cycle of exis-tence. Let us embrace our diversity.

Transcending Normality, Embracing DiversityPeer Support and Mentoring Bring Down the Walls that Isolate

by denIse maratos, ed.m.A

Self-awareness is having a clear percep-tion of our personalit ies, including strengths, weaknesses, thoughts, be-l iefs, motivation, and emotions. Self-awareness allows us to understand oth-er people, to be aware of how they perceive us, to understand our attitude

People are like meadow flowers: distinct, but not separate, rather interconnected and part of the lustrous whole.

L ike a musica l note seek-ing un ion with the harmony of itsel f , the sou l returns to hu-man form, to ear th, in order to hea l and integrate into a more perfect remembrance of the d iv in it y of love it a l ready is . The sou l , on th is plane of rea l-it y, innocent ly expresses itsel f through the lens of the body ’s DNA. Th is cr ysta l l ine pr ism holds the harmonic records of our sou l’s evolut ionary jour-ney toward en l ightenment .

A l l thoughts, lov ing or fear-fu l , are arch ived onto th is re-cord. In Sanskr it , the oldest recorded language, the Hindus refer to th is as the Akash ic Re-cords. Imag ine the Akash ic Records i f you wi l l , as your sou l’s cosmic c loud memory. Each and every thought and exper ience is recorded and be-comes impr inted onto our DNA. As our thoughts advance towards g reater love so does the DNA hel ix , back and for th, in ref lect ion of th is awareness. The g reater our consciousness

of love, the more d i rect and clear we receive and t ransmit in a l ignment with the d iv ine.

Cer ta in spi r itua l texts remind us that the d iv ine, or k ingdom of Heaven, is w ith in. They re-mind us that we may not enter th is k ingdom of Heaven unt i l we become as a ch i ld , a meta-phor ica l reference to a con-sciousness of innocence. In such innocence we are able to f ind st i l lness from which we know the creat ive power of our God-self w ith in.

Toward th is u lt imate state of awareness, imag ine i f you wi l l , your sou l’s record is l itera l ly impr inted onto an old v inyl re-cord. From bi r th, the need le of our awareness is dropped (gent ly or otherwise) on the outer edge of the sou l record of th is par t icu lar t ime and space rea l it y. The need le both plays and records each note of our l i fe’s symphony. L ike a l l records of th is t ype, the nee-d le t racks from the larger/out-er radius of our heart song toward

Healing Your Soul’s DNA

re-traCk the needle on the akashIC reCords,

the inev itably smal ler/center of our rad ica l en l ightenment .

Through love and grat itude we become aware of the rhy thmic f low of our sou l’s g rand melo-dy. Through fear and judg-ment , we f ind the need le sinks into a g roove of d isharmony and unpleasantness; d iscordant notes that pa infu l ly repeat over and over aga in. In San-skr it , such grooves in con-sciousness are ca l led “sans-karas”.

Stuck in these self-created grooves, the need le of our awareness d igs ever-pa infu l ly and deeper into the record of

2�

our subconscious. We become at tached to d isharmony, beg in to suffer and adjust to the d is-cordant notes as being normal . At tached in th is unconscious-ness and suffer ing our hear t ever-longs for the melody of our sou l’s joy.

Th is crossroads of uncon-sciousness and joyfu l long ing awakens our intent to rejoin the symphony of our l i fe song. M indfu l of the d isharmony of fear and lesson of g reater love, we drop the awareness pebble of the ho’oponopono (accord ing to Wik iped ia , “an ancient Hawa i ian process of reconci l i-at ion and forg iveness” ) into the g roove to interrupt the monotony of d iscordance and pa in. At its myst ica l core are the elements of menta l c leans-ing, put t ing th ings r ight , and rect if y ing errors. At tend ing with th is awareness is the rec-ogn it ion that we are a lways 100 percent at cause and re-sponsible for any problem. Simi lar ly it is def ined that we are a lso 100 percent capable of rect if y ing any and a l l er rors. In the ho’oponopono, four shor t phrases act ivate the pro-cess of th is hea l ing and release us from the g roove of suffer-ing : “I ’m sorry. Please forg ive me. Thank you. I love you.” Through the melody of these words we t ransmute and t ran-scend the error of thought and now co-create an inspi red new hear t song.

Now, as the need le beg ins to t rack back through the old g roove of unpleasantness, the pebble now serves to bump the need le back onto the record surface. A new and evermore gorgeous melody beg ins to play. Our hear t feels l i f ted, and we are inspi red by a song of new possibi l it ies.

Fra i l in th is new moment , the need le runs ever-close to the edge of our old g roove and the ear is tempted by the d iscord we were t ra ined to f ind so fa-mi l iar. If our resolve is weak , the need le is pu l led back into the g roove and its depth and darkness wi l l g row with st rength. If our courage is st rong, the need le cont inues to f loat on angel ic notes that pro-cla im our symphony of en-l ightenment .

“Consciousness is somehow a by-product of the simu ltane-ous, h igh frequency f i r ing of neurons in d ifferent par ts of the bra in. It ’s the messing of the frequencies that generates consciousness, just as tones from ind iv idua l inst ruments produces the r ich, complex, and seamless sounds of a sym-phony orchest ra .” - - - Francis Cr ick , co-d iscoverer of DNA

One of the many prima-ry reasons why the Crop Circles are here is to evidence, to demonstrate, and to express co-creation. And as a human you can be aware that you are part of it. There is such a won-derful wake-up going on! People are becoming more aware of the el-ements, working with the elemen-tals, working with earth energies, oh so many wonderful energies, de-vic energies, unseen friends, etc. co-creating, co-creating. So here we can see that Crop Circles are functioning to show you co-cre-ation in action.

There is a level of humility that true co-creation asks of you, and a level of wonder. Most of all true co-cre-ation asks you to be in an aware lev-el of love. You see…a certain level in your unified field functions pri-marily with the energy of love. The strongest attention and intention come essentially from that energy and consciousness – that is the dy-namic, the movement, of love.

For us to say, ‘Well, there is a very physical thing that happens to make a Crop Circle happen. It’s a few lit-tle men that sit at a computer some-where…’ would greatly limit the love, would limit the co-creation, would limit the unified field, and would make the phenomena so much less than what it truly is. But if you can begin to open to the na-ture of the true oneness of the uni-verse and Universal Intelligence, then you can begin to see how you are a part of it.

The collective unconscious goes far beyond planet Earth. The collective unconscious includes more than people. Now you are becoming aware that the collective uncon-scious is a part of a unified field that is co-creating a new paradigm of the future for humanity.

You as an individual, as a human being, are a part of a universal in-telligence and a universal love that makes miracles, beauty and magic.

Crop Circles and Co-Creation: What’s Love Got to Do With It? (Everything!)

PART II - FROM TORAH CHANNELING THROUGH SHAWN RANDALL

You are a wonderful species. There are a lot of other wonderful species too. There are so many in-tel l igences within the unif ied f ield that you are now beginning to open up to, to expand, and to embrace. There is an otherness coming in. You’re not going to read about or hear about it in the media in the usual ways. You’re not going to see it in movies, on the Discovery Channel or the BBC. It won’t come that way for you to understand. It wil l come out of your experiences – maybe in a Crop Circle. It’s happening in consciousness, it’s happening in miracles, it’s happening in the f ields, and it’s happening in some of the scientist’s laboratories. String Theory, get the book, read about it. Unif ied f ield, quantum physics. Instead of science gett ing farther and farther away from the sacred and the divine, it is gett ing closer to a new paradigm includ-ing them.

The Crop Circles are a part of this evolut ion here with you as your intention and attention to grow. You are a co-creator of the Crop Circles col lect ively and individu-al ly in some cases. But that is not information for the small ego. That is meant to be part of the greater mystery, part of the won-der and part of the beauty. It is a truth. Co-creat ion is a truth which includes the other universal intel-l igences creat ing Crop Circles

with you – though you are cau-t ioned not to label and thus l imit them ( l ike cal l ing them Mr. and Mrs. ET or Mr. and Mrs. Deva or some such thing). Remember ev-ery t ime you reduce co-creat ion (and co-creators) in this way by project ing l imited images and hu-man agendas upon them you are l imit ing your own thoughts, your own vision and your own possi-bi l it ies.

So we recommend you stay in the wonder, in the love, in the mys-tery of it. Explore the many theo-ries of the Crop Circle phenome-na; explore your feel ings, let yourself feel the miracles, the magic the mystery as you explore what co-creat ion might mean for you. You are a co-creator for your own l ife as wel l. How can you co-create in your l ife more happiness, more joy, more fulf i l lment, more creat ivity?

How beautiful that you have Crop Circles to give you an example of the wonder of unif ied f ield, inten-t ion, attention, manifestat ion, and co-creat ion!

Foods, Moods & Diet Theories By Dianne Rini

chance. No one diet theory is good for everyone. When you become more aware of what foods you like and which make you feel better, you are more likely to come up with a list of foods that are good for your unique body.

So, try it for a week. One way Rosen-thal’s book explains how to listen to the messages from your body is to for seven days, write down what you eat for breakfast each day and how you feel both right after the meal and then again two hours later. i.e. Breakfast

Day 1: Scrambled eggs - (Right af-ter eating I felt... Two hours after eating I felt...)

Day 2: Scrambled tofu (or if you are like me -my body doesn’t tolerate tofu- you can replace it with tem-peh, which seems to work better for me. (See http://www.fitsugar.com/Difference-Between-Tofu-Tempeh-1034188)

Day 3: Oatmeal

(Right after... Two hours...)

Day 4: Boxed breakfast cereal


Day 5: Muffin and coffee

It is so important for us to be aware of how the foods we eat make us feel, how our moods change, our energy increases or de-creases and why it should matter. When you start to ask yourself these questions after you eat scrambled eggs, oatmeal, fresh fruit, or a muf-fin and coffee, you will become more aware of which of these foods make you feel full of energy and which make you feel you have to “peal yourself off your chair” two hours later. Once we understand how our own body works, we will be able to consciously choose the right foods that fuel and satisfy our own unique body system.

Do you like the idea of eating more and weighing less? Now that might seem almost impossible, but it really isn’t. Once you understand how this can work you will see that it’s true. The key is eating as much as you like of foods that are nutrient-rich and low in calories, while understanding Caloric Density or volumetrics. I will take an example from Joshua Rosenthal’s book “Integrative Nu-trition: Feed Your Hunger for Health and Happiness” (free down-load on my website www.allwithin-

nutrition.com). One package of Oreos, which has 2200 calories. For the same amount of calories we could consume one pound of car-rots, one pound of papaya, one pound of apples, one pound of on-ions, one pound of lettuce, one pound of kale, one pound of tofu, one pound of 2% cottage cheese, two pounds of cantaloupe, two pounds of celery and two pounds of cucumber.

Are you starting to follow where I am going with this? You see, your body needs a certain volume of food each day. Its focus isn’t weather the bowl of cherries you are eating is 100 calories or 1000 calories, it’s the volume. So by choosing foods that have low caloric density, you can feel full without adding that love handle around your waist.

Most diet theories out there have one common goal which is to lose weight. While some are out there to truly help you eat healthier or to heal a certain condition. They have a lot of ideas on what foods they think we should eat to reach these goals. You will see those you might be able to do, and others–not a

��


Day 6: Fresh fruit


Day 7: Fresh vegetables


Once you get this rhythm down you can expand it and include your whole day’s food intake. You can also add in your water/liquid intake. Do it week by week, experiment, and eventually you will notice how your body feels and how each change of diet affects your moods and energy.

Eventually, you will create the diet theory that works for you, eating the foods that you enjoy, that are satisfying and that make you feel good. And what else... oh yeah... those love handles disappear!

To give you a better idea, below is the Caloric Density (CD) of several com-mon foods. Caloric Density is the number of calories per pound for each food [©Integrative Nutrition].

Foods, Moods & Diet Theories By Dianne Rini

Creator, that I already am prosper-ous and that this prosperity is mate-rializing around me. I give thanks that it is so, and SO IT IS!”

– FEEL it to already be so; envi-sioning helps to feel it.

– Repeat this affirmation (silently to yourself or out loud) and process of feeling it at least three times each day and regularly throughout the day (esp. in place of that “negative chatter” that plagues the minds of many of us). Each time you do, you are further influencing both your mind and spirit to attract physical and spiritual Prosperity.

Notice the prosperity coming your way. Don’t let a single smidgen get by unacknowledged. Voila! And So Prosperity Is!

We have many soul mates. These are soul friends we’ve journeyed with in other lifetimes and often recognize in this one. We’ve loved them, learned our soul lessons with them, been their parents or children, held them while they’ve died, or made promises to them that reached through time.

When we meet these soul mates to-day we often have an instant recog-nition, an instant bond. And though we may not have much time togeth-er, the connection is felt, often by both if they’ve reached a certain sensitivity of awareness. Sometimes they are our deepest allies in life, giving us comfort simply by their presence. Other times the lesson is far more difficult and interwoven into the soul connection as blue-prints to be learned through separa-tion and disharmony.

The wonderful news is that if we learn the lesson with willingness and surrender, we can transcend the difficulty and transform the rela-tionship into highest love and un-derstanding.

Either way, soul mates are our mirrors. We attracte them into our lives to draw out of us the lessons

Soul MateS & twin FlaMeS:

Reflections of the heights of affection and connection or our deepest pain and insecurity, but always providing life lessons.

by Cherie Kalisher

our souls are seeking, and the un-healed aspects of ourselves we need to bring to the surface for our attention. The other –the soul mate– is only the catalyst, the mirror.

While the twin f lame, is the ulti-mate mirror. They ref lect to us with greatest intensity both the heights of love and connection and the deepest pain and insecurity we hold within.

Twin f lames are two beings or indi-vidual souls who share the same soul essence. They once were one but chose to split into two at some time in their history. Whether it be due to trauma, soul lessons, or for the sheer joy of experience, they are now on different journeys. Twins can be in two different bodies here on earth, or they can be in com-pletely different planes or dimen-sions of the universe. At the core of it, however, they are the same soul, with the same ancient issues buried within. And some future day, be-cause they are the same soul, and like attracts like in the soul world, they will again be together as one.

Though twin f lames are of the same soul essence, it doesn’t mean they will have the same beliefs or ideals in this lifetime. Other aspects of be-ing human also come into play such

“

as personality, life experience, ances-try, astrology, and biochemistry to name a few. And twins have likely been on different journeys for life-times, gaining different lessons and soul strengths. However beneath the outer layers, many of the core issues are the same, as are many of the pref-erences and gifts.

Since at the root, the two are of the same, a sensitive friend or intuitive can look at the eyes of both twins and feel the same soul “fingerprint”. And looking into your own twin f lames’ eyes is like looking into a soul mirror. We see love radiate out, experience deep intuitive and emotional connec-tion, and can feel their unresolved is-sues as if they are our own.

Twin f lames can be at different levels of soul evolution, depending on where and how they spent their time. When they are united, however, their deep level of connection allows for lessons one learned to be transferred to the other with remarkable speed. If the twins allow it, they can bypass life-times of difficult lessons that the oth-er already experienced. When asking for downloads of divine wisdom, it’s a good practice to ask that one’s twin f lame also receive them, for their best and highest good, in accordance with divine light.

When twin f lames come together, the relationship can be devastating or healing depending on their journey and level of evolution. Usually it is some combination of both. When there is a thread of anger, fear or in-security in one soul, that same thread exists within the twin, and when they come together they can mirror that unresolved issue back and forth with intense results.

There are a few commonalities among twin f lame relationships. One is that there is a very close energetic

connection. It feels like there are ab-solutely no boundaries between twins, and what one feels, the other feels. There is no hiding feelings, hurts or grievances. You often imme-diately know if your twin f lame felt slighted by something you said, and they can feel the same about you.

Another is a feeling “of every particle in one’s being vibrating” when around one’s twin f lame. When I touched my twin f lame’s arm for a split second, only minutes after we met, I felt this electricity. It definitely caught my at-tention because I had never felt that with anyone before. It is incredibly healing and deeply nourishing for the soul. Such a high vibration also brings about the surfacing of deep wounds and soul traumas and if the two are ready, these can be processed lovingly and released.

Another is seemingly infinite soul love and compassion… which can turn into emotional devastation if one twin is not as willing to do the work of the relationship. It often starts out where the offending twin can do no wrong in the other’s eyes. There is so much love and connection that one overlooks the warning signs that would usually call attention. When the offenses build up, hurt and anger enter the picture, but it often takes much more to reach that point. And when it does, it can be shattering and difficult to forgive because it centers on the deepest, most painful issues. Again, it depends on each one’s jour-ney and level of evolution.

we access more of what always exists in the universe. Let’s say all of this space all around us is the past and it is a multidimen-sional universe. We have existed in this lit-tle 4-dimensional bubble of height, weight, depth and time. So the cell is height, weight, depth and time. The interior is energy, so when we focus in with an energy tech-nique, we focus on that portion or that subset i.e. Reiki, QiGong… But, step A, how to access more, is to transcend the technique then we access the entirety of that energy. Simultaneously time is ex-panding, moving faster in all directions at once. So our bubble is expanding and will encompasses more and more of what has existed outside of this bubble of time, so it is not old. It has been timeless. But now all that is within the bubble, so now it is near new. This is what the researchers are un-derstanding about the Reconnective Heal-ing as being new. And as time continues to expand, the water in the pool rises, you could say. So we are accessing more and more of this.

WP: So in the sense of expanding and ac-cessing more, is the process much more powerful now?

EP: It has always been so highly effica-cious anyway, but it is more expansive. So we move beyond the little subsets of ener-gy like Reiki and QiGong. We are moving beyond the entirety of energy, outside of our bubble of energy comprised of light and information, but not just within what we consider to be the energy spectrum. So we are now accessing energy, light and in-formation on a different level. “We are here to tell you to continue doing what you are doing. What you are doing is bringing light and information onto the planet.” Now, what would happen if we said yes I can access all of this now, now I want to do so better by adding a technique to it. But we would suddenly then reduce ourselves down to that little subset of the technique again, even though there is more here than

before. So the first step is we have to tran-scend, at least the techniques anyway. Then we access not just even the energy that was here before, but this new spectrum of en-ergy, light and information. It is like train-ing wheels on a bicycle. The training wheels help you discover your balance, but once you have mastered the bicycle with training wheels you don’t add more train-ing wheels and try to master them too. That’s pretty silly. The true gift of the train-ing wheels only comes once the training wheels are removed. It is the same thing with our energy healing techniques. We keep trying to get more tiny little subsets of energy; learn this technique and this tech-nique and this technique. While the tech-niques help us to develop a sense of bal-ance in the energy healing world, to make the discoveries we can say, but then they become the glass ceiling of limitation until we remove or transcend the technique it-self. People will say well how do I honor my energy healing technique teacher if I transcend the technique? And I say truth-fully, if you learn from a teacher, they will probably not feel honored because they want to teach you more and more. But if you learn from a master, masters don’t teach, they allow you to evolve. The master recognizes that the only true way to honor the master is to transcend the techniques. You have not been placed here to be a Reiki Healer or a Qigong Master. You have been placed here to become a healer, not to master a healing technique, but to master healing yourself.

WP: You have really come here to con-nect with the all of you, which is far greater than we imagine or picture. Most only see ourselves as tiny little people. So it is really opening up a different mind-set for a lot of people, for most everybody.

EP: Yes to step out of the approaches and into the manifestation into the full mas-tery. We are not that foolish on the physical plane when we can see the training wheels.

But on the energetic plane our egos at-tracts us to wanting to put up certificates on the walls, that say I have these training wheels and these training wheels and these training wheels…because we don’t allow ourselves to recognize that they are train-ing wheels.

WP: Well it diminishes us if we see them as training wheels; our egos would be upset.

EP: Yes, some people, if viewing this con-cept through ego, will see the concept of referring to energy healing techniques as training wheels as minimizing. But if they allow themselves to step out of the ego for a moment; say if you have a small child who is set on learning the bicycle. Really, is there anything more valuable than a loving parent and a good set of training wheels so that your child can learn and develop his sense of balancing on the bicycle without coming home broken, bleeding and bruised?

WP: Yes, your job as a loving parent is too support them.

EP: Okay. So the training wheels are very valuable. But when does your child receive the true gift of the training wheels?

WP: Once he has mastered it and he real-izes that they are no longer needed.

EP: Yes, so once the training wheels come off. That is the point. If you were looking at your child today of sixteen years old and you see him riding out on the street with his bicycle with eight sets of training wheels, would you say, “I am so proud of my son, he didn’t just master one set of training wheels he mastered eight.” That is silly. That is what we do in the healing world.

WP: That is a nice metaphor, the eight sets of training wheels. What do you see

how lazy the mind is, while will organi-cally enable you to implement even more discipline. Use more intuitive knowingness than ever to avoid mind desires and unful-fill-able expectations that it wants to hang onto. The Source within is your strongest ally, way more than all the outside support and love. Going within, way beyond what you know, will reveal an inner voice of the deepest and purest love. This is your salva-tion, your guide and your best friend.

Gemini - 5/21 – 6/20 Trust is the central energy for you this month. It is how you have had the break-throughs that you enjoy and want more of. Trust what your gut, your intuitive know-ingness, tells you when you are not looking. Your inner voice has so many subtle layers of guidance; infinite. Also trust the delicate aspects of the chemistry in your life and notice that All is actually You. This will cul-tivate a deeper respect, love and even adora-tion to that Mystery; that You Are. Freely show that respect, love and adoration. This Is beyond Ego! In the depth of your trusting, your in-ner guidance will be moved to do some ma-jor breakthroughs. This means a new route (maybe even some traveling), same goal though. While this new route may appear solitary at first, hang on, there are many there with you. One moment…did you hear that quiet voice that said, “I can never do that!” Hang on and you will see! You are on your way to some beautiful maturity.

CanCer - 6/21 – 7/22 Living moment-to-moment is the key and the expression of the current reality of you. Keep on keeping on. You are aided on your path in part by the wisdom you are gaining that compromise is MUCH more than a partial loss or distasteful acceptance. When truly seeing, compromise is most oft abundant with sweet compassion giv-ing another an opportunity to have a win where you can ‘give in’ without any loss to you; a win for another and an expression of compassion and love for you. Wow! However, there is much work yet to do. You Cancers have quietly stored within and/or are picking up on so much anger and hostility in the world. Ghosts from the past, yours and others have caused you

aries - 3/21 – 4/19 Your old friend ‘being in control’ has raised its head for a look around to find out if surrendering all, once and for all, is safe. While you know that it is a new vision of What Is, that will guide you. The old para-digm: your born, you live and you die has to go. Your inner voice has the path and teacher to follow and the activities to par-ticipate in, all indicated by a ‘yes’ or a ‘no’ from within. Your inner voice is way more than what you think, or what you think you understand, it is a deep, perhaps subtle, vis-ceral intuitive knowingness. It is the tallest lily in a field of lilies. While you are way more advanced than most, your ‘modus operandi’ is to do just enough to be comfortable. Don’t get stuck in the trap of comparisons, they are a waste of time, unfair and totally useless. It’s time to step up gears. When you were young you felt a special connection. This connection you know today as consciousness, spirit etc. So, what happened to the bright, unflinch-ing, wide-eyed participant in the whole world? While you can see beyond illusion, which is remarkable and a gift, to answer this we are back where we started, you are held back by the NEED to be ‘in control’. Vast healing occurs with the awareness that your NEED to be ‘in control’ is merely the mind’s NEED to Understand. Now hold onto your receptivity to the flow of grace and blessings, as you let go of the NEED to Understand.

Taurus - 4/20 – 5/20 Your creativity is screaming to partici-pate. She is the sweetness of Mother’s milk, life-giving beauty, the softness of a dove talking to you, and a willing to participate with you. While aware of the void and the infinite possibilities within, are you ready? The Creator within is strong, bright and is undyingly patient and supportive of your pace and timing. Reach in a little more and know the experience beyond words! Your creativity is stifled some by your mind, in which there is salvation and/or damnation. The only hope to escape dam-nation is to discipline the monkey-mind. As the grace in life unfolds, release and surrender the cause of all grace and bless-ings immediately, or the monkey-mind will take credit. As you uncover more and more of your inner world, you will discover just

to armor yourself in a silly and futile at-tempt to protect yourself. Begin to deeper than ever before, commit to letting go of all fear, and commit to the way of love. Love is born out of the place where ‘All Is In Diving Right Order.’ Embrace this like a drowning man clings to a life preserver, minus the fear. It is your conditioning that can distract you with what you ‘think’ you understand about circumstances along the way and what those circumstances mean. The ultimate meaning can only be found in the silence, in surrender. Go their often and be. In perfect time, you will let go of all thoughts, tendencies or even consideration to need to armor yourself, put on a show, to pretend you are busy, talented, to make noise/drama to be heard etc. Because in your deepest depth, love is what you ‘truly’ know.

Leo - 7/23 – 8/22 Transformation is happening. Some-times so subtle it is hard to notice or appre-ciate. This is why journaling can help gain perspective, so that you can relax into the process. Most try so hard, thinking effort always yields results. Grace is an unearned blessing, so sometimes just Be with What Is. Faith is more than efforting. This does call for patience, which you already have had lessons and tests about. Note that pa-tience over an extended period of time can be difficult if you have been suppressing what is there to face, accept and process. Make a decision to face all that is important to face right now. Pray that you will contin-ue to have exposed that within you that is in the way of your purpose. Ask and you will receive. It is your conditioning and karma that lead you to behave, show up, think and be-lieve as you do; and it is your conditioning that has guided you to the transformations that you have experienced. Yet it is your conditioning that you must completely break free of to truly succeed! Your mind is the biggest hindrance and asset all at the same time. When it appears to be on fire, it is the closest to becoming the biggest as-set and support. Apply the friendliness you have for others, toward your mind. Invite it to play, to be a loving partner, adore the di-vinity within and know that we are made in the image and likeness of G-d. Know this

�1and take the actions that your path and your tradition prescribe; then go beyond that. This may appear to be foolish to some, but instead it is an unrecognized (as yet) expres-sion of the way things are supposed to be. That expression creates a way that is no-way knowable through and from what is already known.

VirGo - 8/23 – 9/22 Compromise can be grace as you see its benefit to another. The seeing required here to produce the grace is from, to and through the depth of your heart of hearts. Gracing compromise must be in the face of all the sorrow that is there, and then as the Master within knows, the success comes by itself on its own, as if the result of something. There is a debate within just below the surface of your attention with all sorts of faces participating from disappointed desires and dreams from the past. This is compounded by your habit to compare your process with others’. You are com-ing to realize that this is a waste of you as it ONLY yields faulty conclusions. When you notice yourself comparing, stop in your tracks and embrace “What Is” in the flow of your life. Being grateful for what you have will stop fueling the need to com-pare and give you the courage to see behind all masks. Your heart of hearts has only one desire, and that is to benevolently love and connect in (or share as called for) the fruits of knowing!

Libra - 9/23 – 10/22 Now is the time to step out of the shadows, to carry flowers into open space, to see through the veils of what is pos-sible. It is your innocence that carries you through the apparent danger to the Light. Be committed to uncovering that inno-cence within; for it has always been there regardless of what has happened to you or what you have done. As you find that innocence, you must trust it even when there is no reason to. This awakens an inner knowing of your divinity. This is maturity. Cease suppress-ing your Light under the guise that you are protecting yourself; when actually you are binding yourself all up and depriving your-self and others of you. To help this process along, from your innocence, practice be-ing as friendly as you can be and enjoy the friendliness of others. Intimacy in the spirit is available to you from within and from within others.

sCorpio - 10/23 – 11/21In the middle of your third eye, the place where intuition and knowing evolve, is from whence you may see beyond illusion. Open to the flutters of energy there. Sit in

the center of centers of your being, and participate in all of life from that place. Let all things be as they must, as you do. The illusion is real to those that hold it to be so. Without regret, smile on any thoughts, de-sires and friends as you move on, or join with them without making them uncom-fortable, no judgment. Share with those that can eat and just be with those that have no appetite. Even as you begin to see beyond the il-lusion there is still living that goes on within. Being receptive to those pieces that com-pletely disrupt and shift all that you know and count on is one of the highest blessings coming to you. Let that be your grace and unbounded blessings come to you.

saGiTTarius - 11/22 – 12/21 Take off all masks and ask all guidance to take off all masks, and you will awaken to a light that will lead the way. The dream that you had as a child will emerge again in this light and you will know the way as you see it. The rebel within is the companion that helps you step out from behind all masks, the hero who will aid you in getting beyond the need to protect yourself. There is a misguided voice masquerad-ing as the voice of reason suggesting you to: be safe, take it easy and slow, to be private etc. This is fear, which while it is certainly holding you back, it is what you know, so work with it. Knowing that you are hold-ing yourself back, take a few extra steps that you would normally hold off on. Doing so will open to the great success that is awaiting you. The so called mistakes that are made are going to happen anyway because this is how we learn, and what you need to learn. The totality of All that Is, All that Was and All that Can Be is there for you once you let go.

CapriCorn - 12/22 – 1/19 Recognize your maturity. Embrace what Is. Enjoy the fruit of your labor, and notice that you are clinging to all that you have. This shuts doors. That is the case for all of us. The clinging happens so subtly and innocently, and until you notice, you are lost in ignorance. Not that there isn’t great success and joy as is, rather, that what you have is only crumbs compared to what is possible. The biggest piece that is available to you right now is creativity. Surrender all that you know, surrender all that you think you know, surrender all that you have heard is possible and just be open to ‘YOUR’ Truth, be open to ‘YOUR’ Creativity to come forth full force. Your maturity and ability to embrace what Is allows the cling-ing to what is known become so heavy and uncomfortable that you innocently back yourself into unloading this burden that is holding you back.

aquarius - 1/20 – 2/18 You know the beauty and creativity of Spirit already. Sit in that energy and al-low it to happen. The piece, ripe to come into your awareness now is an unconscious pocket of grief that calls to be lifted up into the Light. Use your gifts to open to that grief: insist, ask, beg it to come into the Light of your awareness so you can finish that which is blocking a lot more break-throughs for you. Each time you address what is hidden, space opens up for grace and Light to come in. The thing that has kept you from com-pletion is the suppression of those aspects of the circumstances of life that you think are bad, embarrassing, reflecting poorly upon you etc. The energy expended in sup-pression uses a lot of juice and causes you to think poorly of yourself, a self-perpetuating program shaped long ago. Realizing that is not you will allow you to plug into your in-ner guidance in a way that will re-wire this aspect where your knowing beyond doubt will prevail.

pisCes - 2/19 – 3/20 Share what you have and more comes your way; it is the fruit. Innocence is the awe within, and as you reflect on life with that awe, your inner doors open. Begin to know that innocence in many and varied ways as there are so many known and unknown keys to the doors of liberation. Find it in nature and in others. The success of your life is knowing what is already there for you to know. Reflect deeply with what is right in front of you, and from there is a huge opening to success. It is your desire to participate in the Highest for All that balances what you give and what you keep, and the natural timing of that. One side is open, and one side is closed – a dynamic balance; this is Life. Meditate on the pattern to learn the inner workings. As you tap into that you will have to hold and let go of the collective sorrow of unfulfilled hopes and dreams. The only way to survive and to get past their sorrow is by your inner guidance. That will show you where your conditioning blinds you in the field of suffering. Remember, ‘It’ is all divinely choreographed for you to have the highest opportunity to spiritually progress. It is up to you to navigate your way through circumstances and to learn what those cir-cumstances hold for you. There is gold in them and that gold is for all the people of the world. Buckle up to participate for the Highest Good for All.

happening, where do you see us going, rel-ative to our evolution, the increase of our awareness, discovering our ability to do enormously fantastic things in terms of self-healing and so forth?EP: I believe we are here learning to man-ifest our God -selves. Now I just scribbled myself a note. Let me see if it applies and if it does I will read it to you. “These frequen-cies are our relationship to, and as source they are not separate from, us. When we learn to feel for it, find it and stretch it [which is a part of what I teach in the sem-inars], it is really us interacting with yet a further extension of ourselves.”

WP: On the note of your teaching, I was reading, I am not certain if this number is accurate; that you have taught this process to over 70,000 people?

EP: I think somewhere between 75,000 and 100,000 so far, in full weekend semi-nars.

WP: And that is not just here in the states, it is abroad as well.

EP: Yes, all around the world. I am on the road for about 45 weeks a year. I recently spoke at the United Nations. Very exciting! And then I taught a seminar in Vienna and one in Miami. Then off to Paris but first I stopped in Philly where I saw my family for a few days.

WP: Oh, very nice.

EP: The impetus to fly there at that time was to attend an Ester Hicks seminar. I love the work of Ester Hicks, the Abraham work. To me the Abraham work and the Solomon work are the two highest chan-nels right now. They are the pinnacle work.

WP: That’s exciting. I am curious, how

receptive to the whole process are people in other countries?

EP: Highly receptive.

WP: So they are very open to learning it and exploring it?

EP: Oh, yeah. My seminars usually have anywhere from about 300 to 900 people for full weekend. We have got one teaching assistant for approximately every 18 to 22 people. So every small group has their own private teaching assistant while I am eagle-eyes on the stage.

WP: That’s great. So the launching of this new book “Solomon Speaks” is all about your connection and the information that comes through this channeling process, through Frederick Ponzlov?

EP: Yes, and the unfolding. Fred didn’t always like channeling Solomon. Fred had this voice trying to come through him since he was young. But then the same voice, and the same what I call the “the six phrases” or initial six sentences, comes through over 50 different patients. Some of them were frightened some of them were angry and some left my practice. Some of these were patients of mine for 10 or 12 years, others were people who came on the very first visit. But I could gently coerce Fred into bringing the voice through him at times. Fortunately, I had the mind-set to tape record them. The first time I tried the tape recorder broke. I kept the re-cordings and sent them off to a medical transcriptionist. I think the beginning of the transcriptions started around February of ‘94 or ‘95. Eventually we decided it was time to put it all together in a book to share the information. The information was also spoken specifically to me. Not to Eric Pearl the human being, it was spoken to me Eric Pearl who was sort of like the first doorway opening of bringing this infor-

mation through, to bring this level of heal-ing onto the planet. I only had to teach them how to utilize it. You cannot teach it. You transmit it in an interaction, and then you teach how to utilize it.

WP: Powerful stuff.

EP: We are going to teach Reconnective Healing in Sacramento, I am going to give five seminars in North America, maybe six. The first Solomon workshop was on June 29th. We might do one in Germany and that is the only one there for this year. We will start regularly doing them in 2014.

WP: Excellent. Our closing question, since the magazine is called the Whole Person, is Dr. Eric Scott Pearl a whole person?

EP: I believe that we are all whole people, but do we always step into occupying or experiencing our wholeness? In other words, you could move into a beautiful vil-la or castle somewhere, but you also might find that you only live in three rooms. It is up to us, how much of ourselves we allow to come into our consciousness or our awareness to experience in our lives. We have to choose to step into the next room or the next room or the next. But everyone is a whole person.

WP: Yes, a nice a description showing how we are just this little part of us, or we can occupy the all of us. Very appreciated. I thank you for giving your time, your en-ergy, and sharing wisdom. It has been a delight. I feel honored to have met you. I hope we meet again.
