HAPPY AND GLORIOUSLY FREE MEMORIAL DAY

Beloved,

I hope you have a happy and glorious Memorial Day! Let us remember
who we have to thank for our freedom to be who we are, our soldiers.
I honor all who serve in our military no matter what position they hold.
My deepest wish is that we will soon no longer need our military to
defend us with their lives and instead use their patriotism to inspire others.

I feel saddened by the Americans who do not give respect to our fallen
soldiers AND the loved ones they have left behind. So many enjoy the
Freedom that they gave us with nary a thought of thanksgiving. Let us show
our appreciation by enjoying this beautiful weekend with our loved ones
in HONOR of our brothers and sisters in the military. Do not be afraid or
shy to verbally have a toast to them so that all may give thanks.

There are several stories I thought you might enjoy but still not knowing
how to maneuver the gifts of the computer, I cannot shrink this down.

Luke AFB is west of Phoenix and is rapidly
being surrounded by civilization that
complains about the noise from the base
and its planes, forgetting that it was there
long before they were.. A certain
lieutenant colonel at Luke AFB deserves
a big pat on the back. Apparently, an
individual who lives somewhere near
Luke AFB wrote the local paper
complaining about a group of F-16s
that disturbed his/her day at the mall.

When that individual read the response
from a Luke AFB officer, it must have
stung quite a bit.

The complaint:
‘Question of the day for Luke Air
Force Base:

Whom do we thank for the morning
air show? Last Wednesday, at precisely
9:11 A.M, a tight formation of four
F-16 jets made a low pass over
Arrowhead Mall, continuing west
over Bell Road at approximately
500 feet. Imagine our good fortune!
Do the Tom Cruise-wannabes feel
we need this wake-up call, or were
they trying to impress the cashiers
at Mervyns early bird special?

Any response would be appreciated.

The response:

Regarding ‘A wake-up call from
Luke’s jets’ On June 15, at precisely
9:12 a.m . , a perfectly timed four- ship
fly by of F-16s from the 63rd Fighter
Squadron at Luke Air Force Base
flew over the grave of Capt. Jeremy
Fresques. Capt Fresques was an Air
Force officer who was previously
stationed at Luke Air Force Base and
was killed in Iraq on May 30, Memorial Day.

At 9 a. m. on June 15, his family and
friends gathered at Sunland Memorial
Park in Sun City to mourn the loss of
a husband, son and friend. Based on
the letter writer’s recount of the fly
by, and because of the jet noise, I’m
sure you didn’t hear the 21-gun salute,
the playing of taps, or my words to
the widow and parents of Capt.
Fresques as I gave them their son’s
flag on behalf of the President of the
United States and all those veterans
and servicemen and women who
understand the sacrifices they have
endured..

A four-ship fly by is a display of
respect the Air Force gives to those
who give their lives in defense of
freedom. We are professional
aviators and take our jobs seriously,
and on June 15 what the letter writer
witnessed was four officers lining up
to pay their ultimate respects.

The letter writer asks, ‘Whom do we
thank for the morning air show’?
The 56th Fighter Wing will make
the call for you, and forward your
thanks to the widow and parents of
Capt Fresques, and thank them for
you, for it was in their honor that
my pilots flew the most honorable
formation of their lives.

Only 2 defining forces have ever
offered to die for you….Jesus Christ
and the American Soldier. One died
for your soul, the other for your
freedom.

Lt. Col. Grant L. Rosensteel, Jr.
USAF

…conversation overheard on the VHF Guard (emergency) frequency 121.5
MHz while flying from Europe to Dubai.

Iranian Air Defense Site: ‘Unknown
aircraft you are in Iranian airspace.
Identify yourself.’
Aircraft: ‘This is a United States
aircraft. I am in Iraqi airspace.’
Air Defense Site: ‘You are in
Iranian airspace. If you do not
depart our airspace we will launch
interceptor aircraft!’
Aircraft: ‘This is a United States
Marine Corps FA-18 fighter.
Send ’em up, I’ll wait!’
Air Defense Site: ( … total silence)

God bless our troops. There is
something about a Marine that
makes other countries listen to reason.

Really interesting, and I never knew this
little bit of history:

Tour boats ferry people out to the USS
Arizona Memorial in Hawaii every thirty
minutes. We just missed a ferry and had
to wait thirty minutes.. I went into a small
gift shop to kill time. In the gift shop, I
purchased a small book entitled,
“Reflections on Pearl Harbor ” by Admiral
Chester Nimitz.

Sunday, December 7th, 1941–Admiral
Chester Nimitz was attending a concert
in Washington D.C. He was paged and
told there was a phone call for him.
When he answered the phone, it was
President Franklin Delano Roosevelt
on the phone. He told Admiral Nimitz
that he (Nimitz) would now be the
Commander of the Pacific Fleet.

Admiral Nimitz flew to Hawaii to assume
command of the Pacific Fleet. He landed
at Pearl Harbor on Christmas Eve, 1941.
There was such a spirit of despair,
dejection and defeat–you would have
thought the Japanese had already won
the war. On Christmas Day, 1941,
Adm. Nimitz was given a boat tour of the
destruction wrought on Pearl Harbor
by the Japanese.. Big sunken battleships
and navy vessels cluttered the waters
every where you looked.

As the tour boat returned to dock, the
young helmsman of the boat asked,
“Well Admiral, what do you think after
seeing all this destruction?” Admiral
Nimitz’s reply shocked everyone within
the sound of his voice. Admiral Nimitz
said, “The Japanese made three of the
biggest mistakes an attack force could
ever make, or God was taking care of
America . Which do you think it was?”
Shocked and surprised, the young
helmsman asked, “What do mean by
saying the Japanese made the three
biggest mistakes an attack force ever
made?

Nimitz explained:
Mistake number one : the Japanese
attacked on Sunday morning. Nine
out of every ten crewmen of those
ships were ashore on leave. If those
same ships had been lured to sea
and been sunk–we would have lost
38,000 men instead of 3,800.

Mistake number two : when the
Japanese saw all those battleships
lined in a row, they got so carried away
sinking those battleships, they never
once bombed our dry docks opposite
those ships. If they had destroyed our
dry docks, we would have had to tow
every one of those ships to America to
be repaired. As it is now, the ships are
in shallow water and can be raised.
One tug can pull them over to the dry
docks, and we can have them repaired
and at sea by the time we could have
towed them to America . And I already
have crews ashore anxious to man
those ships.

Mistake number three : every drop of
fuel in the Pacific theater of war is in
top of the ground storage tanks five
miles away over that hill. One attack
plane could have strafed those tanks
and destroyed our fuel supply. That’s
why I say the Japanese made three
of the biggest mistakes an attack
force could make or God was taking
care of America .

I’ve never forgotten what I read in that
little book. It is still an inspiration as I
reflect upon it. In jest, I might suggest
that because Admiral Nimitz was a
Texan, born and raised in Fredricksburg ,
Texas — he was a born optimist. But
anyway you look at it — Admiral Nimitz
was able to see a silver lining in a
situation and circumstance where
everyone else saw only despair and
defeatism.

President Roosevelt had chosen the
right man for the right job. We
desperately needed a leader that could
see silver linings in the midst of the
clouds of dejection, despair and defeat.

There is a reason that our national motto
is, IN GOD WE TRUST.

Love and light

INCREDIBLE TIMES

Beloved,

The beach itself has been rototilled and new sand
delivered and spread out. It looks so inviting to
just walk in this soft sand as it will harden as the
rain comes down. The boat launch has been redone
and new rocks delivered now all that is left to do is
to repair the dock and it will look brand new. The
storms of last year certainly did quite a job on it
but thanks to all the volunteers, it looks great.
And….we have had less rain so my lawn can be
mowed completely instead of having a good portion
of it too wet and then it looks like a marsh. I give
thanks to all I have and the joy I have when I look
out the bow window or sit on my deck. I am sure
you and I will look like that when this period of
intense releasing and purifying is over. Hurrah!

The effects of the Solar Eclipse is still being felt. I am not sleeping
as much during the day and my naps are shorter. My energy level
is slowly climbing back to normal and this message I came across
seems to express all that I would like to share with you. I received
many emails from last week’s newsletter expressing gratitude that
I shared my personal experience and also the reason why so many
of us (all of us?) are feeling so strange. I want to give you all the
opportunity to use this very short period of time to become aware
of all that no longer serves you so you will be exuberant for the
next round that is to come. I am doing a lot of reminiscing about
what happened 19 years ago and am surprised at the synchronisticities
that I am discovering. It is quite a revelation. Enjoy.

*IMPORTANT MESSAGE* Please Share.

Dear Light Friends,

We are in an intensely potent window of time right now, between
May 20th (Eclipse) and the following two weeks leading up to
the Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse of the 4th June. This two week
window we now find ourselves in is forcing to the surface
issues connected with the past that need to be finally released,
or which have come full circle and are now completing.

The May 20th Eclipse asked us to cast our minds back to
nineteen years ago and to what was taking place then in our
lives and to note any correlations to any similar themes
that are occurring in our lives and awareness now.
The May 20th Eclipse is inviting us to recognize that
what we are noting and noticing in this period of time
is not by chance, and that we are undergoing a critically
important release which directly relates to ‘then’ and ‘now,’
in terms of the process that each one of us is immersed in
throughout 2012, leading to 21.12.12.

For many of us the May 20th Eclipse is revealing how
we are experiencing a more refined theme/version of
what was occurring ‘back then’. Yet, nevertheless, a
‘theme/version’ that remains an active force and which
seeks a final resolution. So, my advice is to use this two
weeks until the June 4th Lunar Eclipse/Full Moon to
finish a process which really began nineteen years ago,
and seek a healing resolution for an historical/karmic
pattern that has become fully conscious and ready for
a final release. It may not be the actual events from
nineteen years ago that are seeking release, morei
importantly it may be the overall karmic theme that
has been active for lifetimes, and during the past 26,000
years cycle.

You may find yourselves feeling overwhelmingly tired to
the point of exhaustion, experiencing headaches,
hormonal problems, brain fog, dizziness, nausea, weak
limbs, sweating, shivering, or both at the same time, loss
of appetite, confusion, loss of interest in what you are
doing, inability to function or concentrate in your normal
manner, and finding yourselves immersed in spontaneous
memories of events, especially from the past nineteen years.

You may also find yourself in an unexpected life review, and
if so, it is a good idea to write down bullet points of what is
rising to the surface of your memory to seek a final release.

You may find yourselves with a feeling of needing to live your
life in absolute alignment with your truth, with what really
feels right for YOU, no matter how much it contradicts
what you have committed to, or what others expect of
you. The need to do so will be overwhelming and one
which you simply MUST follow.

I suggest that we each put aside time over these next two
weeks to consciously contemplate just what was occurring
nineteen years ago, and any general life review that is
insisting on being part of that process. This is an opportunity
to consciously reach back and bring this energy into our
current awareness. Let it become known to each one of us
just what is wanting to be seen, to be heard, to be validated,
to be acknowledged, to be healed, in order to become complete
during this auspicious two week window of time. Write it all
down, or type it and print it out, sit with it, feel it, love it,
appreciate it, understand it, forgive it, and prepare it for a
final releasing ceremony on June 4th.

The short time between June 4th and June 6th, (6.6.12 being
the Venus transit), presents a transitional moment – a limbo
state – from the conclusion of one cycle of experience to the
opening of another, (catalyzed by the instrumental Venus
Transit). This takes us to the penultimate Solstice of a
26,000 year cycle, leading to the final Solstice that is 21.12.12.

All that we are processing in these next two weeks, consciously
or unconsciously, in terms of our own deep healing process
of the past up until this very moment, is in preparation for
the profoundly auspicious and extremely rare Venus transit
on June 6th. I will write specifically about this transit and
its effect on the individual, humanity and the Earth in the
days leading up to it.

Let it be known that those of us who are consciously awake
are in deep, deep process for these next two weeks, and
that we MUST give time for moving back and forth across
the bridge that connects us to nineteen years ago when this
May 20th Eclipse last occurred. However, let us also
remember that the May 20th 2012 Eclipse has impacted
us way beyond anything we experienced nineteen years
ago BECAUSE it involved Alcyone, the Central Sun of
the Pleiades, a rare event which last occurred 26,000 years
ago.

2012 is the year that leads each of us into a ‘never before
human experience’ of the convergence of ALL timelines,
both inner and outer. We can observe how 26,000 years
of human history is coming to a close by understanding
the significance of this astronomical phenomenon.

Let us make no mistake, WE ARE on a ‘deadline’ in this
year of 2012. I am going to write more on this in the
coming weeks, however, suffice to say, WE ARE
against the clock in terms of our own momentous and
transformational consciousness shift and convergence
of all timelines within ourselves.

If any of us believed 2012 was going to be an easy year in
terms of our personal evolutionary process, we couldn’t
have been further from the truth! 2012 has a mission
to sound the Wake Up Call, and bring us to our knees
if this is what it takes, in order for us to implement
the necessary changes that will set us on the path
to a new paradigm experience both within and around
us post 21.12.12.

2012 is about Love, and that may be tough Love when
needed. Yet, rest assured that whatever 2012 is here
to do, it is here to support us to purge the past, and
cleanse, clear and purify in preparation for post 21.12.12.

The last Solar Eclipse at 0 degrees Gemini occurred in
May 1993. In that nineteen year period, wherever we
have become or remained out of balance, we have
until the Lunar Eclipse/Full Moon of June 4th to address
this and literally pull ourselves back into balance.
Fundamentally, it is during this period of time that we
are being given the opportunity to go inside and
LOVE OURSELVES. In essence, it is as simple as that.

2012 WILL break us down in order to support an
unprecedented breakthrough as awakened human
beings. NEVER before has such a breakthrough
been possible to enable us to embody the new
human template, (a template which has remained
dormant in most of us for millennia). We live in
incredible times. It is the greatest privilege to be
alive at this time, and the greatest opportunity for
an unprecedented leap in our evolutionary journey of
the Soul.

FIRE-ECLIPSE PORTAL

The energies are really playing havoc with out emotions and
physical well being. They, the energies, have really ramped up
and although we were warned they would, so many things are happening
in so many scenarios that sometimes it is hard to catch our breath
from one to the other. Could it be Spring Fever? I don’t think so.

I know just this past week, I have been taking 2-3 naps a day and
if I get to take only one, I sleep so soundly for a couple of hours
that I am groggy when I wake up. My naps are usually only 15 minutes
to a half hour long and I wake up refreshed. I have even taken cat
naps in the car. I pull into a parking lot of a mall, lock my doors,
push my seat back, lower the back of my seat and put a horseshoe
shaped pillow around my neck and take a catnap. Otherwise, I am
falling asleep at the wheel.

I was blaming it on the rain but I know in my heart it is the
energy we are receiving from the sun flares and also the Eclipse
Sunday as well as we are being prepared to release all that no
longer serves us. We are preparing to receive the higher
Christ energy that our solar system is sending us. I have info
on this below so as it is a long explanation, I won’t take up
more of your time just chatting.

MAY 20TH – FIRE-ECLIPSE PORTAL 2012

Some Native Americans believed that all tribes in North America came
from the Pleiades. That they were actually descendents and had been
given a task by the Pleiadians to keep the Earth safe.

Eclipses mean changes, good and everything in-between. Eclipses
always escort in significant events– They intensely magnify and are
living parenthesis forcing us to look at what we have turned our
heads away from. Solar eclipses mean new beginnings, (May 20, 2012)
and lunar eclipses (June 4, 2012) represent finishing things. These
are very powerful Eclipses each with there own gifts and own set of
rules. As the Pleiadian stellar connection renews itself, new
crystalline geometries will be birthed that compliment the
existing light connection.

This is an Annular Eclipse, which means that the Moon is positioned
further away from the Earth than at a Total Eclipse, so it does not
completely obscure the Sun, but leaves a ring (annulus) of sunlight
visible around the Moon’s dark disk. According to NASA’s Fred
Espenak, “annular eclipses have a special charm all their own. During
an annular eclipse, sunbeams turn into little rings of light. The
best place to see this is on the sun-dappled ground beneath a leafy
tree. Hundreds of circular shadows can be found there.

It seems that Solar Eclipses have a profound effect on the Earth’s
subtle energy grids and ley lines. All powerful events that occur on
Earth leave energetic memory imprints in the Earth’s energy grids.
These can become amplified and perpetuated by the energy flow through
the grids, which is fed by the movements of the Sun, Moon and planets
overhead. Powerful negative imprints, such as war, misuse of power
or emotional trauma can block or damage the energy flow in a
particular region of the planet, causing the energy to become
distorted.

Eclipses provides opportunities to release. This is a bit like
deleting an old computer programme, loading a new one, and then
re-booting the system.. So, it will affect the consciousness of the
whole planet.

This Eclipse marks the ‘point of no return’on our journey towards
the December Solstice 2012. The more we are each able to release
emotional attachments, thoughts and ideologies that hold us back
from experiencing full conscious awareness of our connection with the
Oneness of all Life, the smoother the transition will be for us.
The May Eclipse brings a golden opportunity to create Right Relations
In all aspects of our lives and stand fully in the power of who we
truly are and what we truly believe.

“The Great Pleiadian Eclipse Alignment” . Ring of Fire , Full Solar
Eclipse On May 20, 2012, for the first time in 26000 years, our Sun
and Moon and the constellation … You cannot miss this glorious
event! Gather where you can, meditate and open the heart to receive
this transitional energy…an energy bearing sacred codes!

On 20 May 2012 what will occur is nothing less than spectacular.
This Eclipse is spectacular, not only visually, but in it’s
mega-energy. The Sun and Moon ( New Moon) will be precisely conjunct
with the stunning Central Star of the Pleiades, in the constellation
Taurus.

The Pleiadian star system is in fact our core essence, our ancestral
home. That is why it has been recognized by the Ancients, from
LeMuria, Atlantis to the Hopi. revered cosmic objects in history,
poetry and mythology across all cultures. The Pleiades were
recognized in the language of many of the indigenous people of the
Americas, including the Maya, Toltec, Aztec, Ayameria, Lakota,
by the campestral & mystical societies all over the world, including
Australia, Africa, Asia, and the Americas.

All is quickening, time is accelerating as the Ascension draws
center within your individual & group experiences. The year 2012
will be intense and will have periods of calibration that may throw
humanity out of balance temporarily.

Accordingly as the duality planet recalibrates itself into the
Crystalline Field it will also reshape the experience of mankind,
of visible and invisible forces of nature and that of the face of the
Earth itself. Every astrological pattern , every date of Eclipse,
Solstice, Equinox and Lunar Phase is extremely powerful in 2012.
These are being exponentially amplified by Coronal Mass Ejections,
Solar Winds.

Humanity will feel the impact of these through what is termed
‘Ascension Symptoms’, and these may be experienced as mood swings,
dizziness, insomnia, anxiety, lethargy, apathy and fatigue. For
each advancing energy will require physical, emotional and mental
adjustment to the higher frequencies downloaded.

Take advantage of what we are being given, it is a helping hand
to where we wish to be. If it means taking naps then do that, if it
means doing something completely out of the norm for you, then do
that. Do whatever your body and spirit are guiding you to do and
you will be a winner, which of course you are already are.

Love and Light
