US Elections, Conspiracy Theories and Personal Power
I have had some very interesting conversations with my friend Ken MacLean on the Interview With Spirit Radio show recently.
As many of you probably know Ken channels (if that is the right word) a group of enlightened, fun, very wise beings called “The Guys” and Ken shares their wisdom each week on a various topics.
Ken has some quite strong political opinions and they have been quite a source of frustration to him over time. With being in the UK, I have got some very strong opinions on the European Union.
You can read some terrific information on how we Brits can quickly extricate ourselves from the EU on Christopher Story’s World Reports Newsletter.
We both have views on the idea that there is currently plans afoot by destructive mad-men and women to take over the world and form a “One World Government” where the elite few live in total luxury and the rest of us are bankrupt slaves.
I can tell you that when you allow yourself to get into the energy of any of that stuff, it very quickly drags you down and dissipates your creativity and personal power.
However much truth there may be behind these ideas, no-one really knows for certain and that is a matter of personal opinion. However the energy of it, along with discussions on the current world situation, is very heavy and very draining.
Ken and I have had a few discussions on these subjects and also the US Elections and were getting very bogged down in the negativity of it, so we decided to ask the guys their views on these subjects.
The answers were, well, surprising to say the least.
Three weeks ago we had the discussion on the subject of the US Elections on our weekly Interview With Spirit Show on Blog Talk Radio. You can hear the full conversation here.
US Elections- symbol of hope and change.
They key points that came out of this conversation were that people are ready for a change. They are ready for something new and different, new leadership, fresh faces and different ideas.
In a way that could be symbolised in both John McCain and Barak Obama. In many ways, it was irrelevant who won but what was significant was the huge numbers of people who made the effort to got and vote.
Interestingly, one of the points “The Guys” made was that this is really about Personal Empowerment. It is about making the choices to create your own reality.
We seem to be coming much more into a period where people are looking more to themselves and their own resources, rather than being reliant on politicians and governments to provide for them.
Barak Obama is an interesting person. He seems to have a real sense of calm, self-assured confidence about him. In my view, he does not seem to feel the need to force people to like him. He seems to have a very strong vision in his head and is very clear on where he would like to go.
I heard some remarks that Sarah Palin made, where she derided Barak Obama for already having written his “Winner’s Speech” months ago. I bet he had done that and had lived it, breathed it and internalised it to the point that there it was real in every fibre of his being.
It reminds me of a quote from my friend David Hyner of Stretch Development Ltd, who interview former boxing champion, Kris Agabussi. Kris said “Successful people should be LOOKED INTO and NOT UP-TO”.
There is a lot we can learn about a man who seems so at ease with himself. Whether Barak Obama ultimately makes a great President or not really depends on lots of facts, not less his ability to make his own decisions instead of following the instructions of the paymasters behind the scenes. (Ooopps, more conspiracy theories at work here!!!!)
Conspiracy Theories, the EU and the World in General.
It seems to me that we live in a very bizarre world at the moment. There seems to be chaos and destruction wherever we look and in my opinion, our leaders seem to be taking us down a path of total destruction.
I have got myself very worked up over this and especially over the apparent destruction of Great Britain, as our leaders prepare to hand over the last vestiges of our sovereignty to the unelected, corrupt bureaucrats of the European Union.
As least the folks in the USA got a chance to vote for change. We have no say in the ratification of the Lisbon Treaty, which effectively creates a total European super state.
Ken pointed me towards a brilliant article on the World Reports site, which shows just how much political and personal in-fighting there is amongst the ego-driven children in the playground (sorry, the leaders of France and Germany).
I laughed until I cried at the self-destruction of the EU caused by the squabble over “I’m the King/Queen of the Castle and I’m in charge”. Perhaps there really are greater forces at work with all this!
The guys again had a very interesting perspective on all this corrupt sleaze.
We live in times of great change. The vibration of Planet Earth is rising and many would say we are heading towards “End-times” or “Assencion” or the “Age of Aquarius”. There is more and more light pouring into the planet in order to facilitate this.
What this means is that all the old, murky, hidden stuff has to come to the surface to be cleansed, healed and released. It is always the same when you shine light into a dark corner- the unpleasant stuff reveals itself, in order to be swept away.
Politicians and governments who, previously, have been allowed to get away with lying, deception, corruption and personal pocket -lining are there to create the contrast, to show us the things which are no longer acceptable and which have to change.
The old ways are now being questioned and much as these people want to hang onto those old ways, people are no longer accepting them.
The Guys likened this to huge chunks of mud in a pond, which need to come to the surface for fresh, clear water to cleanse them.
They also had a lot to say on the meaning of the word “to conspire”.
To Conspire.
We tend to think of the word “conspire” as people plotting together for something negative and planning some sort of mischief or harm to others.
The word itself, actually, has a different meaning. It comes from the Latin con (with) + spirare (breathe). It literally means to breathe together, to work together and to co-create.
The suggestion from The Guys was to conspire together to create wellness and well-being. What a brilliant idea! They are great believers in Personal Power.
Really, we can only create a reality for ourselves in our own circles, with those people closest to us. We can choose how we react to the world around us, or we can choose to ignore it and create our own reality.
The Guys are so wise and I never tire of hearing from them.
You can hear all of these messages and the archived messages from the last 12 months on the Interview with Spirit site at blog Talk Radio.
Ken MacLean also has some terrific inspirational and uplifting resources, including free ebooks and movies on his site- www.kjmaclean.com
Remember, you control your thoughts, feelings and responses to your world. You can create your life exactly as you want it. The more you can stay in a high vibration place, the more you can impact your life and that of others.
Have a wonderful, self-empowered day.
With abundant blessings.
