Do You See What I See?

This is one of the more difficult posts as it’s stirring painful memories.

“Do you see -?”

“No!”

You Don’t See?

We were at a window looking out at trees.  

We being a sales rep who became friend and mentor.

Describe It To Me.

Ever the engineer he wanted to understand.

Well, It’s Like This.

As had been the norm from post-brain surgery at 10-years I described the colorful flickering “dots” for lack of a better word that had been a part of my visual life.

Curious and kind he asked questions, listened as I described that after I recovered my sight…

The brain bleed left me blind, paralyzed on my left side, and in a coma.

I saw the world differently.  Specifically, it was as if I was looking through a curtain of shimmering colored dots.

What Does It Look Like?

To best explain I’ll share a scene from Analysis: A Metatron’s Army Book

Ryn and Cirhce are doing research in a cave on the planet Isolar.

“What does it look like if you aren’t scanning?”

“It’s very weird.  It’s as if there’s a grey film over everything but since I can still see -.”  She let out a sigh.  “I’ve learned to adapt.”

Sideways Vindication

My sight was restored such that after being blind I initially saw only in black and white – which terrified me and drove me to endless 10-year-old tears in spite of the neurosurgeon’s assurance I would eventually see in color.

Truth was, he had no idea but he had a daughter my age and went to great lengths to help me through a nightmarish experience.

The Medical Guinea Pig

In the weeks and years after I was subjected to scary traumatizing tests including countless tests testing my vision.

No one seemed to understand what I was talking about by seeing the dots – so there must be something wrong with my vision right?  Only there wasn’t.

For years I was subjected to a variety of vision tests. Each time nothing problematic turned up.

My vision was fine.

Driver’s Ed – Enough is Enough!

Just after getting my driver’s license I put my foot down.  No more vision tests.

Hell, if they hadn’t found anything wrong in 6 plus years there was nothing wrong to find!

40 plus years later

It’s hard to articulate feelings upon reading  I’m not the only one on the earth to see the world differently.

Per the article I don’t have difficulty discerning reality nor do I believe any of the other symptoms applicable. Yet I can’t help wondering if the brain swelling and damage from the bleeding didn’t have a hand in a condition that isn’t so unique.

Though I suspect my experience is.

I Can See Clearly Now

It’s been years since I’ve seen the shimmering dots that gave me that unique peek into the fabric of the universe.  

A peek that inspired a Sci-Fi series.

As Roberta put so eloquently…

The Rain is Gone

They Were Kind To Me

Set Up

After reading an article about Icehouse playing their 87 album live decided to listen to a tune I used to dance to in high school – Electric Blue.  

My mind wandered to friends with me on the dance floor.

We loved going to Spanky’s on Fridays after a week of school – and working after school.

One friend in particular stood out not because of our relationship so much as my relationship with his parents.  I imagined what I’d say to him if I were able to chat with him at this moment.

They Were Kind to Me.

It’s something I’ve found myself saying quite a bit lately.  

Too often when referencing someone who passed away.

He/She Was Kind to Me.

I wasn’t treated too well at various periods of my growing years which makes it so a few people really stand out because …

They Were Kind to Me.

Without getting overly sentimental I can attest for the idea that when we’re pushing daisies what will be remembered isn’t our possessions or our titles but how we made people feel.

Treat People Kindly.

Be Well.

The Science in the Fiction X 2

For a myriad of reasons I’ve been debating whether to add to The Science in The Fiction after reading an article that mirrored reality with something I totally made up.  After a second article appeared echoing a major plot device in an entirely different series I decided to go with it.

The first is from Shadow of the Gods, second in my Dragon Core series.

The Science:  From New Scientist 8/12/26 Breast-augmentation method uses your own fat in dissolving scaffolds.

The Fiction: “I can use this connection I have to the universal web to accelerate the healing.  It should reduce the pain.”

“How?”

“I’ll pull some of the web material from the atmosphere and meld it into your body where it will act as scaffolding while your muscle tissue rebuilds itself.”

“Will the outside feel different?  When I touch it will I notice anything?”

“The first few times you take a shower you’ll notice it feels odd.  As your body builds out the repair the filament structure will dissolve.

From The Metatron’s Army series

The Science:  From the Scottish Sun: Volt From the Blue: Police Scotland Officers to be armed with new powerful ‘super Tasers’ that can fire ’10 darts’ from 45 ft away.

The Fiction:  As written in Bind:  Christine crouched by Dacan who was convulsing on the ground.  He’d taken enough of the emitter blast to be in danger of shorting out. 

The Power of 2 – Or 3

It started as an experiment. 

A few years ago I went through a pretty big health challenge related to post-Covid burnout.

Landed me in the ER.

Slow Steps

An avid walker I chose to walk a path back to health.  Aided by homeopathy and nutrition I did not accept prescription medication.

Day after day, often multiple times a day I walked with a focus on nothing more than trying to get away from my own overly cluttered mind.  During this time I stumbled on a unique approach to healing.

Texting.

A Friend in Need

As members of my family were also dealing with post-Covid stress I searched for a way to heal that wouldn’t add to their burden.  Walking did about 75% of the work as it allowed me to think about nothing.

Is A Friend Indeed

During these months I began texting with a friend I’d known for decades.

Worked with him in tech, stayed friends long after I’d left the company and moved across the country.

Peas in a Pod

At the time he was facing his own challenges.

My family was empathetic and caring to what he was dealing with and consistently passed on their support and well-wishes.

An Experiment

Walking mile after mile 7 days a week regardless of weather helped me regain my equilibrium. Eager to move forward I searched for a way to redirect my thoughts so I didn’t regress.  The answer – surprisingly – came from the mundane.

“How’s the weather?”

This simplistic small-talk was a way for us to stay in touch and not flood the other with something out of their control.  

Compassion is wonderful but it can lead to burdening the empathic/ sympathetic – something neither of us wanted to do to the other.  

Small talk kept it real.

One morning I sent a text asking if he’d be up for a light-hearted experiment.  

Talk About the Weather

“Wanna see if we can draw energy to synchronize the weather?”

The intent was no different than someone who prays for rain or relief from snow and cold.  

The Key.

Our experiment would never stand up to the scientific method but that wasn’t the point.  It was two people trying to help each other through a rough patch by focusing on something mundane.

Our results were good enough I asked if he’d be willing to take it a step further.

To Help Others

I knew of a number of individuals who needed a bit of help with various aspects of life.  I asked my friend if he’d pool his good vibes/prayer energy with mine to see if our positive energy would have a positive effect.

I use the term prayer loosely as he was not brought up in any denomination though he has a solid sense of caring about others. I felt/feel his positive energy could only help.

Our results were consistently positive and soon we were pinging each other for various causes.  We were very choosy.

Valuing each other’s contribution we never asked unless it was important.  

We never wanted to overwhelm or unduly burden.  

There came a point where I roped in a family member, making our Two-man group into a Three-man group that occasionally focuses energy on a project that will help others.

Though each of us uses a different method, a shared philosophy of believing our pooled energies make a difference, alongside a sincere desire to help, fuels our successes.

Love caring and positive energy joined together can bring miracles.

Be well.

Life Creates Art Creates Life 3 & 4

For this final installment of Life Creates Art Creates Life I’m going to discuss two amazing coincidental parallels to plot elements in my Metatron’s Army series.

Background

While doing EMF Sensitivity research in Asia I came across a number of physical similarities to plot elements in a fiction story I began working on in high school.

 The Lounge

I had a routine wherein I would spend time in the hotel lobby working on EMF Sensitivity revelations.

On a particular day I looked up and was startled by what to most people would seem an ordinary if stylish table lamp.  

It stood out because the square base put me in the mind of a lamp the heroine is fascinated by while sitting in a study lounge.  

What alternately intrigues and disgusts her is for all the time she’s spent in the technologically advanced universe she has no idea how it remains lit given there is no electrical cord or anything else to suggest how it works.  An explanation is provided in Book 3 of the series.

From Positional Play

Alexander left, returning with a table lamp that resembled the one in the study lounge.  Just like the other, this lamp had no plug.

 “It runs on a rechargeable energy circuit.”  He lifted it up to show the bottom.  “It charges by setting it on the recharging surface.”

Though the table lamp in the hotel lobby was different in design I always visualized the recharging surface to be square.

And finally…

A Hero’s Real-Life Counterpart

I was fortunate to meet a couple who became friends of ours.  Over the course of our friendship I learned that like Shane Turner – a main character in the series – the husband protected his high-school friend (now wife) from a bad home situation by opening the window when she showed up frightened, not knowing where else to turn.

Christine does this with Shane, running across town at night and tossing rocks at his second story window to wake him up.  He lets her in and keeps her safe, trying to comfort her while she shakes.

On a side note:  The Turner house in Berkley, MI is based on a house around the block from a childhood friend of mine.

It’s been a bit surreal to see all these parallels to my fiction but for someone passionate about manifesting through visualization?  It’s also gratifying.

EMF Sensitivity and the Electrical System

I recently wrote how cool it is to have my work on EMF Sensitivity validated independently.

Especially when I’ve never met the scientists who used globally accepted standards of the “Scientific Method” for their research.

You can imagine my delight at seeing another article that not only validates my research and experience but that touches on the motivation behind my App and Workbook Destination Unknown: Explorations of the Paranormal.

My life has been touched by the paranormal for as long as I can remember and I have always looked for a logical scientific explanation even as I came to realize there isn’t always one.

Go figure.

It was this reality that motivated me to write the workbook that evolved to an app.  In short?  People all over the world experience phenomena for which they have no explanation and while various factors influence how they deal with it, most want some sort of explanation.

And tools to deal with it.

Factors include beliefs that are

  • Personal
  • Communal
  • Cultural
  • Religious
  • Political

When researching remedies and tools to deal with the inexplicable, I peeled those factors back and went for the scientific underpinnings that could provide reference if not an explanation.

Just as Erik Bard sought when exploring Skinwalker Ranch.

I’d never heard of Skinwalker Ranch but after learning of it? Given I’m a walking EMF meter I’d love to visit/explore.

Wouldn’t It Be Cool?

Life Creates Art Creates Life – 2

Life Creates Art

I’ve written about life events that inspired the Metatron’s Army series.

A series I worked on for decades.

Art Creates Life

I mentioned how an opportunity to do EMF Sensitivity research in a different part of the Ring of Fire led to observing the first of a number of startling similarities to scenes from various books in the series.

The first was the most startling and primed me for what came after.  Specifically?  Finding an uncanny similarity between my location and the city near the Dynamic Academy that plays a central role in the story.

From Bishop Pair

Having just arrived at the Academy that morning she had yet to get a lay of the land.  As she understood it, the campus was surrounded by Touring, a large city that was a cross between Manhattan and Star Wars’ Cloud City.

What’s in a Name?

I named the city for Alan Turing, a brilliant man who accomplished incredible breakthroughs.

There are additional similarities I’ll be covering in future posts.

EMF Sensitivity and the Immune System

For several years I’ve written about how EMF Sensitivity affects and is entwined with the immune system.  

Specifically, how exposure to various EM Frequencies in EMF Sensitive individuals unleashes a histamine response.

My remedies go to calm this response to relieve symptoms even as my follow-on books target the root cause to make it so individuals are no longer EMF Sensitive.

As it happens I recently came across a National Geographic article titled How do pigeons sense Earth’s magnetic field? Scientists say they’ve solved the mystery by Dino Grandoni.

From the article:  “Wikelski’s hunt began more than a decade ago after a chance meeting with immunologist Christian Kurts during a conference coffee break. Wikelski was studying avian migration while Kurts was doing research involving immune cells called macrophages that become sensitive to magnets after consuming old red blood cells and accumulating iron. “We had this eureka moment,” Kurts says.”

As I write in Wipeout EMF Sensitivity: The Challenge of Curing Autoimmune Disease, I discovered that heavy metal toxicity was the root cause.

I explain how it negatively impacts the immune system.

I outline the protocol I undertook to remove the heavy metals from my body and how within six months of starting what would be a 2-year process I was no longer sickened by EM Frequencies.

To have my work validated independently by individuals who likely have never heard of me is more than gratifying.

A link to the article is below though it may be viewable only to subscribers of National Geographic.

Why I included wordage from the article I felt relevant – the immune response.

Be well.

Life Creates Art Creates Life – 1

Life Creates Art

The summer before my sophomore year in high school I began writing what would become Metatron’s Army.  It was a way for me to sort through images and impressions from an NDE experienced at the age of 10 after I fell off a diving board and suffered a subdural hematoma.

I died three times in three days.  The first was in the ER where I floated over my body and looked down on my dad talking to the doctor.  

Some years later when I could bring myself to talk about it I told my dad what I saw and heard.  With tears in his eyes he validated my memory.

The second was a short time later when they were performing emergency brain surgery.  

This is when I had the NDE.

The third was cardiac arrest on the third day.  

I do not remember that one.

Decades were spent on plot, world building, and character development.

It became a living movie inside of me.

Art Creates Life

I was fortunate to have an opportunity to do EMF Sensitivity research in a different part of the Ring of Fire.  

One morning while at breakfast I looked up to see a scene from one of the books in my MA series directly in front of me.

I was shocked.

Scene From Book 3 Positional Play

Like I was at the time, two main characters are sharing a meal.

They wound their way along paths twisting through the forest.  “How is it warm in here?”

“The temperature is regulated in the normal fashion.”

“You mean these trees are growing inside?”

“The retractable ceilings are made of clear material you would liken to reinforced glass.  It allows light in but keeps the elements out.”

“I thought I saw wildlife in some of the trees.”

“You did.”

“So, it’s like a giant zoo and we’re part of the exhibit?”

“Freedom is not determined by the presence or absence of walls, Princess.”

Coincidence?

It was the first of a series of images that mirror scenes in the series.

EMF Sensitivity Research in Asia 3

Wrapping up EMF Sensitivity research in Asia.  I had a number of opportunities to test what if any EMF Sensitivity I may have while traveling around Thailand.  

Just as with Hong Kong I verified I’m no longer sickened by EM frequencies.  

The most telling was time in a laser museum where I walked through several rooms with amazing laser technology, including one room where if you pressed various images they would respond with sound and animation.  

I visited several temples where I was exposed to a variety of frequencies.

None of which were problematic.

When it comes to manifesting I’ve had a number of success stories but I believe this one is the most profound.

Be well.
