Disappearing Dots

Mo Illusions: If your eyes follow the movement of the rotating pink dot, you will only see one color- pink. If you stare at the black + in the center, the moving dot turns to green. Now, concentrate on the black + in the center of the picture. After a short period of time, all the pink dots will slowly disappear, and you will only see a green dot rotating if you’re lucky! It’s amazing how our brain works. There really is no green dot, and the pink ones really don’t disappear. This should be proof enough, we don’t always see what we think we see...read more>>>...

UFO-Paranormal connection: Pentagon's secret UFO program investigated 'poltergeist activity, invisible entities'

S.O.T.T: The investigative "I-Team" for CBS affiliate KLAS-TV in Las Vegas, NV has brought forward new documents related to the secret Pentagon UFO program first revealed by the New York Times in December. But even stranger than the documents, which delved into theoretical warp drive and extra-dimensional technologies, was the response provided to KLAS-TV by an unnamed "senior manager" within the program, who connected the Pentagon's UFO program to poltergeists, "invisible entities" and "bizarre creatures."

The new statement from BAASS (Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies) to KLAS-TV indicates the team contracted by the Pentagon delved into phenomena far beyond the UFO purview indicated in the NYT's original reveal, in some ways continuing the paranormal research begun by founder Richard Bigelow in the 90s...read more>>>...

The suppressed history and reality of giant humanoid skeletons

S.O.T.T: you step back and look-truly look, with eyes open - at the way human history has been managed in recent times by the established order, you will see an unmistakable pattern.

A certain perception has been pushed, selectively constructed from Darwin's The Origin of Species - the notion that the human race evolved up through the apes, in an unbroken, linear pattern of growth and adaptation, predicated on random genetic mutations; additionally, that the human race as we know it is the only intelligent species to ever inhabit the planet, and has never been in direct contact with intelligent species of any other kinds.

Testimonials and evidence from the past that don't contradict that perception of our history are commonly accepted as fact. Nobody seems to be challenging, for example, the notion that mastodons or dinosaurs once roamed the Earth...read more>>>...

Cycle of Life

Daily OM: As we walk through the world, the people we encounter appear so different from one another. We see babies, old men, pregnant women, and teenaged boys. We know couples on the verge of marriage and lonely widows. We interact with toddlers and the terminally ill. As different as each person seems, they are all living the human experience.

They are just at different places in the cycle that begins with birth and ends with death. Every phase of the cycle of life has its gifts and its challenges. Each stage is temporary and ultimately gives way to a new phase. This ephemeral quality makes each phase precious, because it will never last.

One of the wonderful qualities possessed by babies and young children is that they are unaware that a cycle of life even exists. They simply are present to wherever they happen to be right now, and they don't give much thought to the past or future...read more>>>...

Ghost Photographed Behind Son In Tree ... Genuine Or Fake?

Courtesy of Daily Mail
Is this photograph a genuine capture of the 'ghost' or is it a photoshop fake? The story appeared in the Daily Mail today, and is reported to be photograph taken by a Mother of her two children and their cousin in Plessey Woods Country Park, Northumberland on Bank Holiday Monday.

There was apparently nobody else with them. It only when she looked back at the photos on her phone that she noticed the black haired boy behind her son touching her son's shoulder.

The Mother claims she has not tampered with the photo in any way, and she was a skeptic of the paranormal until this incident occurred.

It all seems very genuine and plausible, until you examine the 'ghost' behind her son. It bears a striking resemblance to the cousin who is photographed above her son on the left, in the tree. The hair colour is the same, and they both share a similar complexion and shape around the eyes and hair line.

Coincidence? Or is this a fake. We will let you decide. We want to believe, but when we go out and investigate anything paranormal, we adopt the attitude of the skeptic. Its only when we have been able to dismiss all feasible and normal possibilities, that we then explore the paranormal possibilities. With this we want to believe, but there is too muck likeness between the supposed ghost and the cousin in the tree .... MJ

The Rune Jera

The rune Jera (Jara) literally means 'year'. It is predominately a rune of harvest; a reward for the right actions; a measurement of time.

Jera has everything to do with perfect time; 'whay you sow, you shall reap'.

The rune implies that the user has an understanding of the mysteries of time, and the psychological effect of dividing & managing time.

Jera can speed things up, and can also slow things down in accordance with what has been sown. If someone were to plant no seeds, and have no desire or intention in their thoughts, then Jera would reap an outcome that would reflect this lack of action.

The Custodians of the Ynys Wydryn Wyrd

Custodian of the Ynys Wydryn Wyrd - copyright Matthew James
The Wyrd survived that fateful day. It rested safely in the minds and the memories of the chosen four. Unbeknown to the clergy of that age, it had been foretold the lake would be drained, and a great sadness would fall upon the land.

Powerful eyes foresaw the need to protect the wyrd. No parchment would be safe, no charms would hide that secret from the evil that was purging the lands of the threats to its rise.

Thus, from an early age, these four were chosen and taught the ways of the ancients; taught the ways of the true magic of the land; told the true history of Albion; shown how to conceal the wyrd within their minds.

And on that fateful day, as planned, these four innocents were able to slip silently away. Never to be found by witchfynder general or mercenary. They were able to live their lives far away. Passing forth the knowledge and the power of the wyrd to children of their own. Who in turn did the same. So through generations the wyrd passed onward. Alive. A glowing incandescence of truth concealed from the church that control the lands once known as Albion.

And to this day The Wyrd remains concealed. The current custodians awakening now to the truth. And, aye, there are many. Not four. But numerous minds now have The Wyrd within them. Awaiting the time that The Wyrd decides to awaken once more. But ne'er again shall Avalon be here on earth; but a glade just much more powerful shall become known in years to come. For it was foretold back then, it would be so. Just when the darkness was all but complete; and the light almost extinguished forever, The Wyrd will open the gates once more to what was back then ... and the power shall return ... it will be so. - copyright Matthew James

Elderberries are a great natural remedy for the flu

Natural News: While getting the flu today doesn’t seem that threatening, especially if you can just head to the store for some medicine, if SHTF it can be more difficult to get drugs or immediate medical treatment.

However, preppers won’t have that problem because there are various herbal plants that have medicinal properties, such as the versatile elderberry.

When you have the flu, it’s up to your immune system to protect you from the virus. You can keep your immune system strong by eating a healthy diet.

But if you already have the flu, elderberries can help you feel better. Used by Native Americans for centuries, elderberry tea can treat both the flu and the common cold...read more>>>...

Using Yourself as a Pendulum

Daily OM: Learning to trust our intuition is something that can connect us with our higher selves. Sometimes it might not seem easy to do this. Our thoughts and minds often get in the way. But by accessing our innermost self, we will find that the information we receive is usually what we truly need at that moment.

One of the techniques that allows us to really get in touch with our deepest font of wisdom is using our body as a pendulum. The simple act of letting our physical being lead us in a certain direction can offer us extremely deep insights and help us find the answers we seek.

Many of us may have tried using a pendulum or crystal on a chain as a dousing tool to acquire the information we need to make decisions or even find lost objects. Using our bodies puts us much more closely in tune with our being. The process of using your body as a pendulum is to ask your higher self a question and wait for your body to respond in either a forward-tilting or backward-tilting motion.

The first step is to really understand how our higher self communicates with us by centering our bodies, asking ourselves the directions for "yes" and "no," and noting which way our body moves. For a lot of people a forward motion is "yes," and your body tilting backward is a "no" answer. It is easier to start with simple questions at first to understand how our higher self communicates with us....read more>>>...

We Know Its Name

What a real effort its taken tonight to get ANY posts onto A Light In The Darkness. Thanks to VIRGIN MEDIA and its snail-speed broadband, posts have been alarmingly difficult to prepare and upload.

It's felt like a force has been working against us tonight. It's the same every night, or most nights ... Virgin Media's totally useless service doesn't help with it's unbearably slow upload and download speeds.

We are already aware that computers are a primitive form of A.I. But they are still part of the archonic force, and can be overwhelmingly distracting to anyone who shines too much light. Sceptics say its just a computer glitch, or an internet provider issue. But, from bitter experience, we know it is not the case.

The computer itself appears to generate anger and hatred through its belligerent defiance; through its crashing or sticking for no apparent reason. The A.I force is harnessed and deliberately set to antagonise the user to bring out those negative emotions. Its a psychic attack and a very frustrating one.

Anything that is reliant on a silicon chip is basically a vehicle for the Archonic Force. Simpleton A.I forms - but Archonic nonetheless. And more advanced A.I forms within computers and tech are planned to be running off the consumer conveyor belt in a town near you very soon. Silicon chips vibrate on the Archonic frequency and are not for our convenience ... they are the means to imprison us .. and so far that is exactly what is going on; though we have too much brain damage due to Sodium Fluoride and sweeteners to notice it is the case. We are chemically lobotomised and too dumbed down to fight or care.

We are our own worst enemies and have only ourselves to blame. The damage is irreversible, and the advance of the silicon chip A.I's is unrelenting and none stoppable. We are virtually all before a computer or laptop screen some time during our day ... and that's the way it was planned. Now its free and unlimited WiFi everywhere ... and that too has been the intention all along. We buy all the latest technological versions (Am I the ONLY ONE who doesn't? And has an old IPhone 5S with faulty battery?)

Its time to stop and think ... and realise that we are at war with an unseen force ... and it has the advantage, or did ... because it is seemingly invisible  Not anymore ... we can see its face. We know its name ....

'Going Through The Gears'

Life is life, and has to be lived the way that you live it regardless of what people think (Or say) about you. It's not worth abandoning your path because others want you to, or try to force you to. 

That's been the problem since those halcyon days of regular Glastonbury trips. So much has changed since then, in so many ways. The bickering of the show ponies is behind me now. Their corbyantic howls are now little more than a whisper in my mind. I care not what they do, or what they say ... I only wish that mindset had awakened a year or two ago. They have never been worth the wasted energy. A distraction is all they have been. A brick wall at times, because their bitter jealousy towards me pre-empted me to waste time dealing with them; letting them into my head was a waste of space.

I wash my hands of those wasted thoughts. I can move on to where I was before .... well not quite. In truth, through serious illness and the show pony experience, I am now so much stronger than I was, and more self aware. Not a bad thing.

We can't turn back the clock to pick up what we once had. That's not how life works. Instead we must learn to adapt, by processing all that has been in this life time to date, to permit the now to be as industrious as it can be. It needs to be aware of the virtues and the vices of it's selves ... but not let those contrasts be anything more than inspirations ... that is all they are meant to be.

So here I am, 60 hours on from my last trip to Glastonbury, I'm still awaiting the recogniseable realisations, and energy surges, to kick in. To date its like a trickle feed compared to how it used to be. But then, it was a whistle stop tour this time round. I've drunk all my Red Chalice water ... and almost all the White Chalice Water I collected on Sunday. I've too much materialism to deal with ... to permit the kundalini-based energies to become overtly apparent. Its a strange thing ... but I'm not that person I was back then. He was by far more spiritual that he is now. He was more wild and more powerful with his abilities. Today he is very restrained and very conscious of his abilities. But I'm sure the opportunity will arise for me to use my 4th and 5th gear again! Throughout my time in Australia I rarely went above 2nd gear. Everytime I moved up into 3rd gear I would receive only hostility from those around me ... I let them control my path and their distraction tampered with the gear wheels so to speak. 

I need to let my physical fully recover from its health ordeal of 4.5 years ago before I crank my biochemical circuitry up again. My physiology is totally different to back then ... and its perhaps my wanton disregard, back then, for the physical effects of high level & high vibrational energies that maybe caused my illness - or contributed to it. My energy levels back then were incredible high. Even in 2nd gear my vibration proves too much for people. So imagine what 4th gear must have been like back then! Every time I hit 5th gear ... well you cab imagine.

Anyway enough of this ... I must let the ancient Avalonian energies settle before I discern what the next phase will herald .... 

Health experts say ALL sausage and bacon products cause diseases like cancer… is that really true?

Natural News: The new cancer guidelines laid out by the World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) have put bacon, sausage and other meaty treats on blast, declaring that there is no “safe” amount of these favorite foods.

But is it really the meat that’s to blame — or is it the chemicals and other additives Big Food throws in the mix that makes meat so toxic?

WCRF states that processed meats, in particular, raise cancer risk. Dr Giota Mitou, WRCF director of research, said in a recent statement, “The best advice is not to eat processed meat. The risk does increase with consumption.”

The WCRF also adds that when it comes to processed meats, “no level of intake can confidently be associated with a lack of risk of bowel cancer.” But you might argue that processed meats aren’t even really food — at least compared to what a real rack of bacon or fresh, homemade sausage are like anyways. The idea that the vacuum-sealed, sodium nitrite-laden, mass-produced composite meats you buy at the supermarket are in any way the same as grass-fed meats seasoned with care at home is really quite laughable.

While moderation is essential, the blanket banning of all things bacon is once again putting the onus on people instead of the real culprits — the food industry that’s been polluting the food supply with toxic additives for decades....read more>>>...

Is the Power to Heal Ourselves Increasing?

Waking Times: The science of Psychoneuroimmunology (PNI) is echoing what mystics and shaman have been saying forever which is that we have untold powers to heal ourselves!

All of this points to the innate ability our bodies have to self-regulate, seek balance (homeostasis), and heal. You would think that we would be eager to listen to our own bodies when they speak to us through symptoms, yet we usually do the exact opposite by numbing the pain or ignoring what we feel...read more>>>...

Mindfulness Quotes for the Day


Cutting Cords

"Risk" Light Of Truth Oracle artwork by Matthew JamesDaily OM: In every relationship, people are constantly exchanging energy that can become a cord connecting two people. This energetic cord forms just below the breastbone and can remain long after a relationship has ended. This unbroken cord may leave an open channel between you and another person, through which emotions and energy can continue to flow. If you are unaware that the cord exists, it is easy to feel the other person's emotions and mistakenly think that they are yours. Besides the fact that this can limit the amount of closure you can experience in a relationship, letting this cord remain intact can leave you with a continued sense of sadness while creating feelings of lethargy as your own energy is sapped from you. Cutting the cord can help you separate yourself from old baggage, unnecessary attachments, and release you from connections that are no longer serving you.

Finding and cutting unwanted cords is a simple, gentle process that is best done alone and when you are relaxed. It is important that you are strong in your intention to release the cord between you and someone else. To begin, breathe deeply and perform a simple centering meditation. When you are ready, visualize or sense the cords that are connecting you to other people. Run your fingers through the cords to separate them until you find the cord you wish to sever...read more>>>...

Ynys Wydryn

Just over a thousand years ago, the massacre of a group of peaceful people on Ynys Wydryn is long forgotten. The current land bears no resemblance to how it once was. A rocky outcrop surrounded by a lake - The Isle Of Glass also known in legends as The Isle Of Avalon. 

Sadly, these harmless and gentle folk were target of scaremongering and incitement. So much so villagers from surrounding areas, who'd lived with the strange tales around the isle for hundreds of years prior to the massacre, were fed lies to harness their fear to such a degree they were the ones responsible for the grisly murders that night.

The perpetrators of the incitement - the local clergy of the time - had everything to gain by ridding the land of these 'satan worshippers'. The harmless folk who were on the receiving end of the churches wrath, were practitioners of the ancient arts of the land that had been so for hundreds; if not thousands of years prior to the church's pillage and destruction of the lands of Albion.

Ynys Wydryn was a special place, once, the rocky outcrop we know as The Tor in modern times, is a hollow hill with reputed wonders below ground. After the massacre of Ynys Wydryn, the church took possession of The Isle and reputedly destroyed all the artifacts and wonders that were kept for safe keeping on The Isle. They plundered the technology that ancient beings has bestowed on the custodians of Avalon. Then to rub salt in the wounds, they built St Micheal's Tower on the tor as a arrogant symbol of their seizure of such a prized pagan site.

However, the magic and the power of the isle could not be destroyed, despite the church's best efforts. Its secrets may well be long destroyed, but its truths are written into oral legend and myth by those who are descendants of those massacred that night.
