From yesterday,

The third interpretation is 7744.  This is 11 x 704 = Justice x God.  The 8888 completion is 1144 = 11 x 104.  This is another number in the N x 104 series of which 2184 = 21 x 104 is a prominent one for me.  The 10000 completion of 7744 is 2256 = The Major Arcana: The Minor Arcana.  This is a clear tie to the Tarot.  It is as if 7744 is the completion of the Tarot.  This is also connected to time.  22:56(88) is 1992.  Time for me begins with 4/8 in 22:22(88).  So this was my 34th year ... the year that these writings began.

22 x 104 = 2288.  If my reckoning is correct, that will occur in 1958 + 66 = 2024.  In base 88, 22:88 is 23:00 the completion of the 22 cycle of 88, and the beginning of the 23 cycle.  23:King of Wands = wayne.  Is this when the dawn of the Aquarian Age will finally be upon us?  The dawning has been occurring since the 1960's as prophesied in some of the popular songs of the time.  2024 is only one full cycle of 22 years away as of yesterday.

We have indeed chosen some exciting times to live.  There is a rush of energy that flows through me, even as I think about it.  The past century, and especially the past 22 years have brought immense change into our lives.  If I recall correctly, 1980 was about the time IBM came out with the PC that through its many generations has brought a revolution to information work.  During that time, the internet and WWW came out of the research and educational arenas and became a powerful communications medium for the masses.  I cannot even hazard to guess what exciting new breakthroughs will occur in this next cycle.  My sense is that we will see them in all areas of human endeavor ... but most importantly in the area of consciousness research.  This is the next great territory to explore.  Yes, our technology and communications tools will still be important.  However, even more important will be our ability to understand and use information effectively.  This requires awareness, at levels that many have yet to experience.

Filtering of information becomes a necessity.  We need to find ways to focus on the key information and filter out that which is irrelevant.  Futher, this needs to occur at other than conscious levels ... though it should be directed by conscious decision.  We have always operated in this manner.  Our belief systems form effective filters that limit what we experience as reality.  However, most of us have not been taught that things work in this manner; and hence have not done the self work to get our beliefs under control so that they truly serve us.  Yes, that is what it takes, self work; first to identify what our beliefs are and how they are related to one another, and then to remove the foundations from those we no longer choose to be governed by.  Some of these have strong foundations ... requiring very hard work to be rid of them; however, it is worth the effort.

Reality is created not so much by what happens as by what meaning we assign to what happens.  Note that there is a big difference.  If what happens is the only reality, then we are much more limited in what we experience than if we can choose how to interpret each event in our lives.  My sense is that what happens happens, and there is little we can consciously do about it other than to change what it means to us.  That doesn't mean that we don't have free will and the ability to influence the events which are drawn into our reality.  However, my sense is that we primarily do this through our beliefs.  We can desire that certain things occur, and we can take action and do things that might facilitate them occurring.  However, it always seems that there is an unknown that is part of the equation that we cannot control, try as we might.  It is this unknown that keeps life challenging and interesting.  We are gods in becoming ... but we are not gods in fact yet.  As such, we have some creative powers, but it is best if we use these in service to spirit and to others to the degree that we can.  The old saying "Be careful what you wish for, because you just may get it" comes to mind.  With our limited understanding, we often neglect to consider everything impacted by our desires ... so we do not generally express things so that the greater good is achieved.  Here, we can get better with practice and especially with increased awareness.

Interpretation of what events mean in our lives is another matter.  Here, many of us rely on beliefs ingrained in us as children.  However, there is a better way to do this.  We can consciously choose what events mean to us, and we can set up programs via belief systems to then continue to make these choices automatically for us.  It is a lot like learning to do something new.  We start by being unconsciously incompetent then become consciously incompetent, then with practice become consciously competent, and finally it becomes second nature and we are unconsciously competent.  This final state is the goal.  That frees our consciousness to take on whatever task we choose next.

For many people, belief systems are effectively their masters.  The rightful role of belief systems is as servants.  In particular, servants of the conscious self.  If the belief systems were a garden, most people would find theirs full of weeds, so much so that it would be hard to tell that there was a garden at all.  Missing out of this analogy is the fact that beliefs are like tables on legs.  The more legs that stand under the belief, the stronger the impact of that belief in attracting reality.  The fewer legs the more wobbly the table and the less impact of the belief.  Also, there may be conflicting beliefs that effectively cancel one another out each trying to attract opposite experiences.  Legs may be facts, or they may be statements made by people assumed to have authority (as for many childhood beliefs).  It is this later category that is particularly troublesome.  Many people are unaware of these, and even if aware, don't feel empowered enough to overrule the authority.

We fix belief systems by examing the core beliefs and their supporting "facts" and then questioning the validity and usefulness of what we find.  Utility is the key for beliefs.  They either serve us or they don't.  Those that do not serve should be eliminated and replaced with more empowering ones.  We fix belief systems one belief at a time.  It works fastest if we focus on the core beliefs first ... for we will find that when these are challenged, whole sets of related beliefs go with them. It is helpful to follow the links between beliefs to gain an understanding of the entire belief web.  This perspective allows us to perform surgery on whole sections of the belief system at once.  We need to be prudent gardeners and tend to our belief systems regularly ... pruning the weeds whenever they appear.  It also helps to be adventuresome, planting new beliefs, building the foundations under them, nurturing them, and observing and evaluating what results.  Beliefs are the playground of reality creation.  We need to be creative and playful in how we deal with them.

If there is one area of your life that is most worth examining ... that will cause the biggest difference in your life and the reality that you experience, this is it, BELIEFS!  This is where the greatest benefit results from the effort expended.  This is where we attack the cause directly, rather than only dealing with the symptoms.  Yes, it is indeed that powerful.  Know that there is nothing hidden so deeply that you cannot become consciously aware if you are vigilant and show the proper intent.  Be curious and ask that your beliefs be revealed to you.  Then, set aside time observe and question what comes up.  Focus on finding core beliefs and their supporting structures.  Then evaluate the soundness or the structures and the core beliefs along with the utility.  How does each belief serve you?  How does that impact the reality that you experience?  Is the result positive or negative in your life?  Only you can judge the utility of each belief.  It helps to do that from an observer frame of reference, if you can.  This doesn't have to be an objective observer ... just the part of you that is the higher witness of your life.

If you aren't aware of this higher witness part of yourself, that is another area that warrants attention.  You are a spiritual being experiencing reality through a physical body and mind. But, you are more then just the body and mind.  You are the spiritual awareness that animates the flesh.  This awareness has multiple parts, two of which are doer/actor and witness/observer.  Most people spend far too much time as doer/actor.  In fact, many have not yet become aware of the witness/observer.  There is also a third part, the creator, but this is generally subconsciously expressed.  It is not clear if there is anything that one can do to find the witness/observer part of oneself, other than meditate and sitting still and listening for the intuition to express.  For me, my mind went beyond itself over a period of about six months in 1993.  Prior to that, I had spent 18 years of indepth study into various aspects of metaphysics.  Even at that, it seems to have taken a special alignment of energies to birth a new expression of consciousness within and through me.  The creator self is still hidden and subconscious to me.  It springs forth and expresses from the unknown.  I am an active participant and observer, but my awareness doesn't stretch to the act of creation.

Awareness is the most important thing in the world.  It is the only thing that we carry forward from one lifetime to the next.  It is ever worth striving to reach the next step, and that will be different for each of us.  Oh, some aspects may be similar, but each of us is a unique being, a unique expression of the ONE consciousness.  Be whom that you are, as fully as you can, and express all that spirit can express through you ... that is the prime directive.  The name that Moses was given to address God was "I am that I am".  This is of the same format as was the Army slogan "Be all that you can be".  It is curious that this changed last year to "I am an Army of one"!  The sense is that this refers to the ONE consciousness somehow.  It is curious that the Army would choose to make this change. It is clearly a conscious move from a ME to WE focus!  Anyway, this is a very welcome sign that the mass consciousness is in the midst of major change.

I AM THAT I AM THAT YOU ARE!   Be Happy and Create Well!

LOVE,
