In Suite on Transition there's a moment. It's at 5:48. It makes chills on my skin. It evokes some alien grandeur like the procession of a great queen. The tempo changes from wild to stately. Transition is a great great recording.

I think many of us have begun the looking in the mirror process.

People dismiss this stuff but, those same people cannot explain consciousness and all the various states of it that have been proven in unusual ways.

Ingo Swann was another very interesting character, employing altered states of consciousness.

Being open to things that are hard to explain is just as rational as rejecting them because they’re hard to explain. The key is in letting go of the preconceptions. That’s where the discovery occurs.

Well done. You even had me checking in with Google, where I discovered Cayce predicted 2025 would follow 2024.

Well that was some strange syncronicity that turned up in my inbox. Was Cayce the real deal or a complete grifter? With stuff that's impossible to quantify, who knows?

However, I think many empathetic people right now are feeling a socio-political and spiritual convergence of forces on this planet that is dense and disturbing. There's all sorts of speculation about what that is and what it means from individuals looking through a variety of different lenses, but it's still essentially opaque.

As far as malevolence masquerading as light? Same as it ever was. Vampires have always hidden behind a smokescreen of virtue signaling and moral superiority. High-functioning narcissists are as ubiquitous in an earnest nonprofit as in corporate HQ.

Was just listening to Coltrane's Transition recording earlier. Better than garlic.

Trane's "Transition" is my background music these days.

Transition, yes! Absolutely. Reading your article also brings me to the rise of the human. “Pithecanthropus Erectus” all over again. Pulling it up for a listen and then just breathe.🧘

Ha, I remember the hype about Edgar Casey: the doubters and the believers. There was a rumor in Monterey that he recommended almonds because he had an almond farm, but I just googled it, and that appears to be incorrect. There have been many correct predictions for the future over the years, why shouldn't his be one all the way down the line?

In any case, historically, the pendulum swings, que no? Better to work for it than resign to the chaos. Well said ,my friend!
