Sunday; 9Leucine; Evolving Beauty, Art and Elegance in Our Bodies


Artist; Chihuly

We land on Yellow 9 Star or Amino Acid 9Leucine Today and the vibe is luscious and good.

The analog is Blue 9 Solar Monkey or play, illusion and magic afoot. Artists are co-creators of a higher life and don’t objectify things or people outside of themselves and covet them in order to define their hollow souls as much as sink themselves INTO THEM passionately and then render art from their own soul. It’s a merging if you will whether it’s visual art, music, dance or otherwise.

The Guide Power this morning is Yellow 9 Solar Seed or the amino acid 9Valine. Seed kin are super aware of the earth and their bodies and are generally one with it unless they are terribly clever and wrapped in ego. There always seems to be some tension in the Yellow Seed kin I know between submitting to their flowering into the Higher Self or being grounded in the ID or ego from childhood. We all have an ego and need one for safety on the Earth but it’s best to spend most of your time outside of the ID.

The Antipode this afternoon is White 9 Solar Mirror or amino acid 9Tyrosine. This is a solar mirror; reflection, refraction, dualism, the sword that cuts both ways. In all art there is an antagonist and protagonist; someone who is making trouble or being antagonizing OR someone who is helping or at least is neutral. It’s easy to see it in theatre, movies, visual media wherever humans are on stage but it is in nature as well; predator and prey, hot and cold, the list is endless.

The Hidden Wisdom tonight is Red 5 Radiant Skywalker or amino acid 5Glutamine. I wish. Muscle definition is beautiful and glutamine and leucine are in charge of the muscles in the body. My personal trainer is Yellow Seed and I am Red SW, both in this themeplex. There is vanity which is easy to run when there is BEAUTY. It’s true that beauty is in the eye of the beholder though. As the song says, “I am a fool for beauty”. There’s nothing beautiful about foolishness and I catch myself all the time chasing visual beauty just to have a respite from the ugliness of error. I hope this oppression ends soon. It’s very hard on all of us.

The 5GForce is Yellow 5 Radiant Human. There we go. I was just reading an article on the obsession with Rebel Wilson simply because she’s lost weight. It’s happening to me now. I’m really thinning down and two of my female patients look at me derisively, furrowing their brow, jealous as all heck and said, “You’re really getting small”. I’m actually not small yet. I have at least 30#’s in the front of me to drop. Neither one of them re-scheduled yet giving lame excuses and they both need the treatment. I’m going to lose female patients because I’m thriving and happy as a single woman and they are both very unhappy married women not taking care of themselves.

A radiant human being doesn’t get jealous over someone else getting healthier and more beautiful! Just the opposite. They should be genuinely happy for you but most are not. A radiant human being doesn’t treat someone differently just because they change their body or their look to what they would prefer. We live on a zombie, mentally programmed planet that programs people by staring at media, to believe that the way you look is the truth about who you are and sets your VALUE. It lacks complete spirit awareness and intuition. I don’t make the rules of society but it’s not at all easy to escape them into true beauty that comes from the soul. Time is Art and artists can help escape the chaos.

The Human Body as Art…to some people.

Underground Healing Tech They Kept From Us?


Or they haven’t perfected it yet? Click on the linl on the post for the article.

It doesnt matter. Humans can heal their own DNA. Most have just foegotten how to do it.

You have to focus your mind on either your future self (when you’re old)back to the present self or yout past self (when you were young) forward to the future self.

Or…hack a past life timeline and ask Spirit to help you bring that into 3D. I just requested cellular memory from the lifetime when I had the healthiest eyes and brain. We’ll see if I can manifest that in my body.

Saturday; Blue 8 Galactic Hand. Mercury Goes Retrograde Through the Rest of Sun in Aquarius.


The Planet MERCURY. The mediating planet today is Earth but to me, Mercury looks a bit like Earth.

https://twitter.com/insta_science/status/1355470819195932672?s=20

Red Moon- White Dog is Methionine and Aspartic Acid. Since Methionine is THE start codon, events should be a little quiet humanly speaking to February 20. Maybe it means a blizzard freeze up too. Those are always fun.🥶🙈💨🌨❄.

Keep in mind that the Tzolkin is ONE with the earth. First the Sun emits the DNA alignment into the earth and then it hits our bodies. The weather is one way it aligns us. There are many levels of vibration as impetus to gene expression or mutating RNA.

Amino Acid Protein Isoleucine

Today is Blue 8 Galactic Hand which is 8 Isoleucine. The vibration of the number 8 is baked into earth, solar and universal order since our planet is dualistic and very divisible by 2 including our bodies; 2 eyes; ears, arms, legs, feet, brains and and more. It’s our DNA.

I Harmonize in order to Know.

Modeling Healing I seal the Store of Accomplishment with the Galactic tone of Integrity.

I am guided by the power of Magic.

The Tzolkin#47

The Analog is Yellow 8 Human or 8Isoleucine; a person with high integrity, balanced in personality, influential and wise.

The Guide Power this morning is Blue 8 Galactic Monkey or 8 Asparagine; an artist, spontaneous and innocent, transparent and communicative.

The Antipode Challenge this afternoon is Red 8 Galactic Earth or 8Phenylalanine; modeling evolution and integrity.

The Hidden Wisdom this evening is White 6 Rhythmic Wizard or 6Lysine. We’re balancing equality in order to be receptive to movement. Psychic, heart-knowing, concerned with spirituality.

The 5GForce is Red 6 Rhythmic Skywalker of 6Glutamine. This stimulates change and movement of which I spoke above; especially for people that are a bit stuck in their ways or habitual.

Short Update from Simon Parkes Yesterday


START at 3:40 to get right into the political business.

We have the SF, Space Force and SC, Space Command run by the Military, part of the Air Force.


If there’s nothing but planets and stars going on out in space then why are the top notch air force run by General Dickensen so serious? They know which stellar species have our backs and which ones don’t. That’s why. The military folks have worked face to face with E.T.’s for about 50 years or more. Probably more like 100.

Med Beds are Here from Stellar Species


http://www.blissfulvisions.com/articles/med-beds.html

This is an example of tech left here for us that has been disclosed. These beds will be used for many people but specifically for the children who are still alive but were tortured and abused underground by the D.S. While it’s true that we can heal ourselves and change the expression of our genes, these beds will help speed the process along for extreme cases.

I was meditating this morning and had very strong empathy and a vision of these children and their experience finally being brought into the open to the public. It’s going to be very rough for many people’s psyches to remember their own trauma in the their families and in the churches. My heart goes out to humanity for what we’ve been through and truly hope we can all turn things around and have a good, peaceful life. Sexual abuse happens to men and to women also. We have some years ahead coming to terms with this in the Human Family.

There is synchronicity here with Red Serpent and antipode Blue Eagle which we just entered 30 minutes ago.

Thursday; Balancing Equality Means Survival


We enter a new I Ching Harmonic today; #26; The taming power of the Great/Potent Energy. The nucleotide that MOVES the 4 amino acid themeplexes in this harmonic is ACG-Cysteine. There is no cysteine molecule in here at all but Cysteine or Red Dragon birthed Red Serpent so that aligns with Red Serpent as do the attributes. This is the last day of moving DNA in the N. Polar zone on Earth. Our DNA is ONE WITH the Planet and this is directly outlined in “Earth Ascending” by Jose Arguelles.

The issue of TENSION and balance between culture groups is somewhat of an issue right now only because the media runs with it. Divide and conquer. That method of creating survival tension in society will wane soon because human nature is to cooperate and create once we hit a certain threshold of higher mind in the group. We are reaching a tipping point worldwide. The attributes of Red Serpent have gene expression through the amino acid SERINE.

Once that point tips we’ll have more disclosure. We already have quite a bit. You may want to check out the Wilcock video I posted last night. He talks about it. Some humans have been working with a stellar species for 50 years! They’re just people. It’s no big deal to them.

The analog today is White 6 Rhythmic Wizard; the receptive shaman and timelessness. These attributes have gene expression through the amino acid LYSINE.

The Guide Power this morning is itself. Survival instinct, passionate, intimate and sensual, aligned with Scorpio and mediated by Maldek. Genetic expression comes through he amino acid SERINE.

The antipode this afternoon is Blue 6 Rhythmic Eagle; independent vision, creative, compassionate, believes in self, dreamer. Eagle goes well with the Sun in Aquarius which continues through to February 20. These attributes have gene expression through the amino acid ARGININE.

The Hidden Wisdom is Yellow 8 Galactic Warrior; questioning, fearlessness and intelligence, trustworthy and wise. These attributes have gene expression through the amino acid HISTIDINE.

If you watched the video I posted from Dr. Bruce Lipton on here you’ll understand what I mean when I say “gene expression”. Our DNA is fixed in the nucleus of each of our cells but the way in which the gene is expressed evolves and changes when affected by our environment and our own thoughts and feelings. That is the biology of belief. Our biology changes as our MINDSET changes but our genes don’t change. Gene Expression morphs and that is moved through the different types of RNA or ribonucleic acid.

I believe the tRNA is specific to what the Tzolkin addresses in the themeplexes.

There is also mRNA, messenger RNA, rRNA, ribosomal RNA, and srRNA, small regulatory RNA which is a generic name for small RNA molecules that act directly as regulators of gene expression. Most srRNAs act by specifically targeting messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules through incomplete base pairing, leading to mRNA degradation and/or suppression of translation.

This is a bit like psychological denial or shock due to trauma to the sensitive human CNS or Central Nervous System. Our bodies have an INNATE, INSTINCTUAL (Red Serpent) homeostasis mechanism that is unique to each of us, I think it’s based on unconscious ancestral memory that will filter out or SUPPRESS certain experiences and memories to PROTECT US! It’s interesting to ponder how much our bodies are DEDICATED to our survival and thriving. We are on automatic pilot and have big resistance from our bodies to self-destruct. There must be something deeply out of alignment in a person’s soul to want to commit suicide. Probably an inability to adjust to the energy of this planet which is very far out of alignment with the Local Universe. So be it. It is very rough here; not for the faint of heart. I’m here to help bring alignment.

The 5GForce is Blue 8 Galactic Eagle; Tone 8 models integrity and holds a vision of a paradigm they are exploring. Many people on earth are just observing. They aren’t ready to try to manifest a co-creation with Source. They haven’t figured out how it works here yet so there is no judgment of others who are not racing forward. But there are 5th density beings who stand at the ready to support humans ready to make a go.

Everyone has a right to any of those. We have to dream before we act. We need a detailed vision before we act. Once you join them, change happens. Everyone does this in their own time so don’t be goaded by the ambitious who think they know what’s best!

Wednesday; Yellow 5 Radiant Seed; VALINE


Overtone Seed has a confidence that is rarely wrong. They do their homework! Many are teachers and coaches and are all about empowerment, hard work, focus, and reaching your potential.

Valine, Arginine, Glutamic Acid, Lysine and Phenylalanine.

Yellow 5 Overtone Seed targets self-awareness and flowering. It’s an active dynamic, a spiritual creator, potentiality and leader, performer, and influential.

The Analog is Blue 5 Radiant Eagle; a commanding, radiant mind supports independence commitment and vision.

The Guide Power this morning was Yellow 5 Radiant Human. This is an empowered human being taking care of business in physical, a creator and holder of the chalice taking it up with both hands.

The Antipode challenge this afternoon is Receptive White 5 Radiant Wizard. He is preoccupied with timelessness, he’s psychic, aligned with Source, sensitive, a torch bearer and concerned with spirituality.

The Hidden Wisdom is Red 9 Solar Earth. This evening we are realizing our INTENTIONS, we’re Pulsing synchronicity and an awareness of navigation in the Matrix.

The 5GForce is Yellow 9 Solar Warrior; A strong awareness of Free-Will and the intelligence to execute it.

Have a great day!

Tuesday Reading; Blue 4 Self-Existing Night Alanine


I define in order to Dream.

Measuring Intuition I seal the input of Abundance with the Self-Existing tone of Form.

I am guided by the power of Self-Generation. I am a galactic activation portal…enter me.

Tzolkin# 43

The Analog is Yellow 4 Self-Existing Warrior; questioning, fearlessness, intelligence

The Guide Power this morning is Blue 4 Self-Existing Storm. We love the four walls of our house don’t we? Well, we have the chance and time to realign our toxic selves that just became GROUP TOXIC over time when we were out and about. If you have no belief and no spiritual life whatsoever and treat your body like a garbage dump you are a toxic human. We’re going on a year now that everyone has had to clean it up…themselves.

The antipode challenge this afternoon is Red 4 Skywalker; measuring form while exploring and being awake in space and time. How are the Red 4 SW’s using their accomplishments though? To be of service or for self-aggrandizement?

The Hidden Wisdom is White 10 Planetary Mirror; Perfecting a project, getting some level of it finished, creating order and reflecting on endless Time. Every morning we get up we think it’s TIME we’re IN but really it’s endless opportunity to CHANGE OUR BODIES TO OUR LIKING. The point of earth is to be a co-creator of the MANIFESTED DIMENSION in an orderly, beautiful manner. We each have been give 100% control over our mind and body to be an artist and USE OUR DNA by focusing our mind to create A LIFE, art, children, the list is endless. Time is not on a linear line that PASSES back and forth because of the Sun.

As you sit in your body right now, you are never ending. You are eternal in some dimension. Even if you decide, or by default programming our society tells you, “I’m 80 now, time to kill my body.” you will still be eternal somewhere else. You could be eternal HERE! Physical death is not necessary if your eternal MIND is AWAKE IN YOUR BODY.

I’m on the planet to teach that if Time is eternal, which it is, then the body we create (the light body) can also be eternal and we can just go from planet to planet switching things up in the cells and live wherever we want. Ah, I’m an outlier but I feel this ageless truth in my own body. I’m working on manifesting this right now.

The 5GForce is Red 10 Planetary Earth. That sounds a bit redundant. It’s the synchronicity of multiple dimensions ACTIVE in the Matrix manifesting in FORM on the planet. That is going on right now. Each person can see and feel it if they focus and pay attention.

Peace Out.

Time Innovation: History-Archeology-The secrets and significance of gold in MesoAmerica


Since Trump is going to attempt to return the U.S. to the Gold Standard I thought it would be interesting to see what gold meant to the Maya and how they used it. In addition, here is an article on how we would go about making the switch. I’m really questioning it and will have to ponder it further. It’s important to note that the single reason that this whole Plandemic is happening, the election rigged, and in 1963, Kennedy shot, was because they wanted to return to the Gold Standard. It’s social implications and history are very controversial. Yet…there is FAR, FAR more gold in our local system than anyone knows. We just have to mine it. -Corey Goode

Just in the last week, my cryptocurrency has dropped $100.00 in value.

Gold – Apr 14 – Glint 

From zoomorphic masks to the secrets of lost metallurgy, how and why did gold become such an important representation of wealth and power for Mesoamerica’s Aztecs, Mayans and Mixtecs?The Mesoamerican region and its cultural areas in the Pre-Columbian era

The Mesoamerican region and its cultural areas in the Pre-Columbian era

Mesoamerica is the region where North and South America meet, extending from contemporary central Mexico to Honduras and Nicaragua. Since 1500 BC it has been home to many great civilizations, including the Maya, Aztecs, Olmecs, Mixtecs, Toltecs and Zapotecs. Anthropological and archaeological explorations in the area have emphasized the importance of sculpture, pottery, textiles, precious stones, and gold to these peoples.

So, when is Mesoamerican goldsmithery dated from? In fact, compared to other ancient civilizations, the emergence of gold metalwork in Central America occurred relatively late, with distinctive works apparent in west Mexico from around 800 AD[1]. The region is unique for its interesting metallurgical technology. The Mesoamerican peoples’ interest in the sound, color and reflectivity of theirA golden Maya mask. 13th century

ornaments[2] informed the choices of their craftsmen who focused on making jewelry, display items, sheet metal breastplates, crowns and objects that could produce sound. All these items incorporated a variety of techniques developed by artisans and rendered in shadings, engravings and embossing.Golden Aztec-Mixtec pendants. Circa 1400-1515

Today, our most important source of information for the pre-Colombian Mesoamerican gold work and jewelry manufacture is the descriptions contained within the Florentine Codex (1548 – 1561), a tome written under the supervision of the Franciscan priest Bernardino de Sahagún.

In the ninth book of the codex, Sahagún describes and illustrates the manufacturing processes and technology employed by Mesoamerican goldsmiths to produce the artefacts by depletion gilding and a now lost wax casting technique, which involved the pouring of molten metal into a mold that has been created by taking an impression from a wax model. Once the mold is made, the wax model is melted and drained away[3]. The level of sophistication embodied by the gold artifacts and jewelry from the period is only replicable today using modern technology. The gap in our knowledge of how such pieces were made has led to a range of different theories, all trying to explain the lost secrets that allowed Mesoamericans to reach their remarkable levels of craftsmanship.Depiction of various crafts in the Florentine Codex, Book IX

Aztec Gold Work  

As tribute, the Aztecs were often gifted raw gold materials including powders, ingots and sometimes even foil. These were often brought from the Oaxaca and Guerrero areas. Interestingly, manufactured gold pieces (e.g. pendants) were also offered as presents to rulers, priests or elite warriors, although this was less common. Historical sources also show that goldsmiths from the Oaxaca region often worked in Aztec workshops to produce artifacts for Aztec rulers and ceremonies[4].A gold Aztec lip plug in the shape of a vulture’s head. Circa 800 – 900 AD

The Maya

Although gold was panned in the Guatemala highlands, it was not produced in great quantity. For the most part, Mayans traded for their gold with other Mesoamerican peoples[5]. The largest cache of gold and other precious metals found in the Maya territory were dredged from the sacred well at Chichén Itzá, the former Mayan city and flagship archaeological site located on the Yucatán peninsula and dating from the ninth century AD.Mayan temple of the Count at Palenque. Circa 600 AD

The gold found in this sacred hoard contained different zoomorphic pieces, pendants, bells and figurines cast via the lost wax process[6] as well as hammered discs with mythological scenes of human sacrifice and warfare. Judging by the style, shape and size of the artifacts, it is believed that this cache may well represent the first significant trade network of gold in Mesoamerica. It is also considered the biggest collection of gold work discovered in the region.

Mixtec goldsmithing

The Mixtec civilization developed in what is now the Oaxaca state of Mexico, thriving from 900 AD until the Spanish conquest in the 16th century. Mixtecs were the most skilled goldsmiths of Mesoamerica[7], and about 80% of the existing Mesoamerican gold artifacts belong to this culture. The gold collections found in their territory include chin ornaments or ‘bezotes’, a huge solar pendant (from the tombs of Zaachila) and various zoomorphic pieces rendered in bells, beads, foils, necklaces, rings and earrings[8]. Most of the items found are remarkable in terms of the quality of gilding techniques and the ornate depictions of animals, plants, gods and mythical beings. These pieces show the significance of gold metallurgy in the Mixtec comprehension of religious worship, ceremonial practices, mythology and warfare.A Mixtec gold pendant. Circa 1200 AD

By the end of the Mesoamerican Age, goldsmithing had become wide-spread across the lands of today’s central and western Mexico, although gold artifacts were accessible only to the elites who used them both as symbols of power and for ritual purposes in burials and ceremonial offerings. Only high levels of society were allowed to wear jewelry made of the precious metal – the great symbol of the Sun and the gods that represented it.

The gold found in this sacred hoard contained different zoomorphic pieces, pendants, bells and figurines cast via the lost wax process[6] as well as hammered discs with mythological scenes of human sacrifice and warfare. Judging by the style, shape and size of the artefacts, it is believed that this cache may well represent the first significant trade network of gold in Mesoamerica. It is also considered the biggest collection of gold work discovered in the region.

Mixtec goldsmithing

The Mixtec civilisation developed in what is now the Oaxaca state of Mexico, thriving from 900 AD until the Spanish conquest in the 16th century. Mixtecs were the most skilled goldsmiths of Mesoamerica[7], and about 80% of the existing Mesoamerican gold artefacts belong to this culture. The gold collections found in their territory include chin ornaments or ‘bezotes’, a huge solar pendant (from the tombs of Zaachila) and various zoomorphic pieces rendered in bells, beads, foils, necklaces, rings and earrings[8]. Most of the items found are remarkable in terms of the quality of gilding techniques and the ornate depictions of animals, plants, gods and mythical beings. These pieces show the significance of gold metallurgy in the Mixtec comprehension of religious worship, ceremonial practices, mythology and warfare.A Mixtec gold pendant. Circa 1200 AD

By the end of the Mesoamerican Age, goldsmithing had become wide-spread across the lands of today’s central and western Mexico, although gold artefacts were accessible only to the elites who used them both as symbols of power and for ritual purposes in burials and ceremonial offerings. Only high levels of society were allowed to wear jewellery made of the precious metal – the great symbol of the Sun and the gods that represented it.
