The Earthquake Demons

If you report the news these days then you certainly wouldn't have to wait too long to report any major event. Nor is it necessary to reshape or squeeze the membranes of sensationalism to satisfy even your most avid armchair voyeur. They seem to be pouring out of the seams.  With economic meltdowns, severe storms, severe flooding, severe earthquakes.The rise and fall of governments and dictators all over the world prevalent. You don't need to write the story writes itself. We are in total sensory and visual overload so much so that a new term has surfaced to identify these new events. Catastrophic!  A reminder that what is occurring in every part of our world has not been encountered before and a suggestion that it is more than likely to be the norm. With my interest in Zen and eastern philosophies I am beginning to notice something   arising out of all this which I allows me to meet this with some acceptance. Perhaps something has already been seeping into our psyche for some time and our perceptions are being altered at some other level. Whatever that might mean for me personally I am noticing that what we call the observer and what is being observed now appears to be merging. Events ! What happened yesterday and what happens tomorrow seem to be a confluence of just what is happening NOW. These are very familiar conditions with eastern & western spiritual thought and scientific idea now mounting and becoming somewhat indistinguishable. Sooner than not later both Guru and Scientist will be sharing the same language. 


I suspect we are reaching a zero point where we will no longer be able to distinguish the border between our personal self and story. Presently I am using a reporter for this treatment to represent what is happening. They are our eyes and ears and are planting us squarely in the middle of what is.  With all these concurrent disasters which now appears to be the norm we are breaching the Now itself.  The storyteller is discovering there is no longer a safe haven from where he can present the news as he now runs the risk of being the news. All these events running simultaneous. The economic meltdowns, catastrophic storm cells, severe earthquakes and now the nuclear meltdown in Fukishima. That Zen term which defines the spaces between our  thoughts    that space I would suggest is disappearing. Said from Science's point of view we are being cornered into zero point. I'm sure many are beginning to intuit this. 

Do you still remember the good old days? It was probably only about two years ago when something boring or unpleasant would transpire and you could just channel hop yourself out into another channel. Into another reality and you could quietly repeat the mental mantra “ It's not happening, It's not happening , It's not happening” . You just wait till all those unpleasant images go away. Till you could resume normal transmission and regain control. That's not happening now is it ? The spaces, pregnant pauses are disappearing from right under you. Images  are apparent not because of the better communication but because nature has cranked up the noise and taken it right to your doorstep. Demanding your total attention and wants it now in real time. It's probably good to remain optimistic in spite of all this. But take care with that. There is a fine line between optimism and denial. That fine line that space is coming apart. If you choose to still ignore the signals do it with some  CAUTION ! I suggest that while you sit there in the comfort of your TV chair flicking through channels it would be wise to err on the side of caution. Perhaps you should at least be wearing some flotation device and occasionally check just below your legs for rising  water. It could be just a leaky facet out in the laundry area but have a good look anyway.

                               Watching Japan the Microcosm in Collision Course with  the Macrocosm

Like most of you I was glued to the Japanese earthquake and tsunami events from its earliest point.Zero point  would soon follow with the nuclear reactors meltdown at Fukishima without respite. Before I continue let me mention the catalyst that kept me embedded with these events. I had only recently committed a little bit of my time to turning into a social twitter. I kept communication with a small group of people who share an interest in spirituality. My interest in Zen kept me in good stead with the 140 character restriction of twitter. So keeping dialogue short was becoming the norm for me. Ironically one of my fellow twitters is a Zen writer from Tokyo who by habit sends a single twit text weekly. That single word was  'earthquake'. Probably a mischievous shaking of the fist to a land known for its earthquakes. In the afternoon of March 11 at the time of the earthquake I received a simple twit but this time with just two words ' Great Earthquake ' Now that's what I would you call an  understatement. But sure enough a short time later the images came streaming in via television. A rushing torrent of water came laying ownership to land filling every bit of space till there was no distinction between land and water. The spaces where gone. A flotilla of cars, torn roofs, entangled debris,a plane punctuated only by a handful of boats slewing sidewards out of control. The images  just continued and did not seem to stop and the mind was busily trying to separate and identify individual objects with little success. My eyes were busily trying to contain and retain some distinct object to hold but they rushed passed with alarming speed. The seer and what was seen seem to merge and the brain lost locality. I recall twitting ' Beyond Words ' but this time the words held so much deep significance and it had nowhere to go but remain there.  As the events continued for some time I slowly felt self regain control and with somewhat  frustration. Other thoughts came intruding now.All the recent events from all over the world and so close to home. The recent floods in Queensland a  second devastating earthquake in Christchurch New Zealand. There was just no space any longer. No time to grieve. It was evident that historical time was now being played out in real time.
The gaps. The spaces disappearing. Time was no longer collapsing into history, in it's  familiar peaks and troughs. No highs nor lows all gone ! Then the Fukishima Nuclear meltdown came rushing in once again rattling the collective psyche I'm sure with no time for recovery. The horror still emerging at this very moment with the extent of real damage unknown. Already there are concerns all over the world and locally that its true nature will be witheld from us.By the people we have placed our trust with.


When the familiar mental spaces returned I began to consider perhaps that there was an unclear message here for us. Some redemptive opportunity to learn by what I am sure many as well are beginning to recognise. Real time disaster. Real time events. The NOW ! How can one make sense of any of this ? I felt a need to be on solid ground in order to try to define this experience to look for answers.Then I recalled the work of the late Terrence Mckenna and his theory with 'Timewave'. Timewave is simply a formal calculation which graphs the ebb and flow of an event which he called ' novelty '. Measurements are made within the confines of linear mathematics with assigned vectors plotted to produce an outcome. With Mckenna's Timewave he could plot future events by entering certain linear calculations.Interestingly, by plotting the historical events of mankind's progress from the Industrial technology to the present technology, Mckenna was able to plot time vectors and with some calculations conclude that time itself was compressing. I know this may seem hard to grasp for some. But in today's climate it is not.No fancy mathematical equations even with a rudimentary mental charting of technology you do come up with this startling conclusion. For example, just think back as far as the 70's and chart technology exponentially to the present day. You will find that it peaks in advancement from years, to months, to weeks and now to days. Mind boggling, and as we and time are intertwined we are feeling the effects.The effects of time compression.Maybe not everyone as yet but that comment " where did the years go " is now gone and its not uncommon to hear                       "where did today go ?"

So the question is this, if a large number of people are experiencing this today, this idea of NOW but not quite everyone then why is that ? Why is it that not everyone is connecting the dots?It is perhaps to do with consciousness.Without going into Rupert Sheldrakes idea with ' Morphic Resonance '. Perhaps we have just not quite reached critical mass to flip us over to a new mode of consciousness. Will it involve time? I think it will. It is to be recognised that historical time has to be ditched as ballast if we are being transmuted. And Off course along with that ego the time keeper.It is clear that time is not congruent with ' NOW ' and will vanish soon enough. Many spiritual leaders have raised these ideas for centuries so we are familiar with it. It is called The end of time. But like passages in the Bible and other religious texts with a shift of consciousness there is a shift in view. When read again the pages literally jump right at you. So it is with the words The End of Time. New awareness new view.   


So the assembling of these disasters may actually be an opportunity to see with new eyes.Nature has jockeyed herself into position and waiting for your move.I am suggesting that these events are somewhat part of the final delivery system being implemented to raise our consciousness.It has been slowly evolving over thousand of years of cyclical time emerging gently to begin with. Then now within our time as the convergence begins, crop circles, channelling, ancient traditional rites, discovery of ancient texts and so on. Now it is squeezing our timeline and time is slowly running out of space.Time is really running out .The reaction as we get closer to 'novelty ' off course becomes more violent as this new level of consciousness is being birthed. So what I am alluding to here is that with the compression of time the portals to awakening are becoming more violent. Even with the new vehicles the usual gentle female energies are now replaced with Katrina,Yasi has a sense of ugency along with the demonic earthquakes. Compelling you to not only change but to do so now. Let me make that very clear NOW ! This is not a benevolent
awakening but more so by the bootstraps. The so called mythological battlelines between good and evil are drawn.     



 
Mayan Calendar and Japan

The other evening someone drew my attention to the above image. The picture I am told appears on several internet websites. It represents the color banding spread of radiation emissions from the Fukushima nuclear meltdown. That is if and only if and also when, ' certain conditions prevail. So what it depicts in fact is its possible predicted direction and spread should certain variables manifest.The wind direction and temperature during this meltdown which will spew nuclear waste only a certain distance because they are heavy elements cannot travel very far. By air ! Sadly what remains of this fallout on land will make large areas of Fukishima inhospitable for many years. Notwithstanding the particles leeched in soil and spread by the underground water systems.      

I was quite taken by the pattern of banded colors and the appearance which seemed familiar to me.What attracted me to this image and this might be a long stretch is its striking resemblance to the profile of a parrot's beak and head with some unusual colors which immediately drew me to the Macaw parrot. I remembered the prominence of  the Macaw Parrot in the Popul Vuh the Mayan Book of Prophecy. I was not aware of the exact relationship in the story but remembered reading something about it. It was with the Seven Macaw parrot. So when I found this excerpt about the Seven Macaw parrot I was stunned. The Seven Macaw parrot according to prophecy will do battle between good and evil at a particular time. The Seven Macaw and his two sons Cabracan and Zipacna will orchestrate a battle between good  and evil. The two sons Cabracan and Zipacna are identified as earthquake demons. The fact that they are identified as earthquake demons made me stare at this image a while longer and there was no mistaking the resemblance. It was not something I pulled out of a hat. As I could not recall what the Macaw Parrot implied I knew that my information was not one contaminated by suggestion. Not some doomsayers wish. So I reread several available interpretations regarding the two sons and sure enough they were known as the earthquake demons. I took it further by actually contacting a prominent and respected Mayan scholar at the chance that he might reply which he did. He conceded  a striking parallel with this image and with the 'Seven Macaw returning to the Garden of Eden'. I don't quite know what that means so I will leave that to the experts. I will not mention the authors name out of respect and I'm  grateful that he took the time to look at this image and provide me with some of his insights. Two things I should add to this. The Popul Vuh seen as mythological does not fall under favourable light with historians.  We are fortunate that there many independent researchers who do not adopt the academia mindset and continue to pour over these works.


Interestingly with some interpretations is that it is not viewed as a doomsday scenario but a time for change. Off course this change refers to good from bad. The seeing in the error in our way. Part of the story refers to creation and advises when certain elements or condtions are ripe to make this change.But in life man is the rogue component who has the capacity to produce unfavourable and destructive outcomes. This is where the Shaman came in and played his role by collapsing time and bypassing duality the dichotomous glue that enforces rule in our three dimensional space. For movement in this reality choice is necessary. A yes or no, up or down,round or flat, good or bad. The Shaman had the capacity to not necessarily be right all the time but was respected for his ability to skillfully manoeuver himself into that stillness. In between a yes or no, a life changing decision and recommend the right time to take correct action. This he could do well because ego was not capable of entering stillness. Ego is a creation of Time

We are trapped in historical time where ego resides. We are caught in this dynamic and opposing tension the home of His Story. It is with His-Story the need for it to tell that ego needs to support historical time in order to preserve itself. In order to survive. It is an in built self preservation mechanism to prevent it's own annihilation. So how does one remove his-story? My intuition tells me that these energies rushing forward now somewhat intervene. A higher consciousness according to Carl Calleman is emerging with the Ninth Wave birthing itself on the 9th March 2011. This is truly is an important time but not as yet clearly understood. It is pointless to criticise or ridicule people that do not understand this as yet. As I believe this new energy being brought forward is designed to put them up to speed. The critical point is close and it is up to those who are already aware to work with it.


   







                      Stringing the Coincidences

After looking at the Seven Macaw nuclear image and later learning of a possible relationship with Mayan Prophecy I became more curious. I began looking at some of the current symbols to see what they were saying to see what else I could tie in between a past and present. 
   Flag for Fukushima Prefecture  
International Symbol for Radiation
Symbol for Fukishima City
The first is the official symbol represents the Fukushima prefecture the home of the Fukushima DaiiChi nuclear plants. The prefecture was unified with the Yamato province as a part of the nation of Japan in the 4th Century BC.  This part of the world is no stranger to myths and battles between good and evil. It is said that in the plains of the prefecture of Fukushima legend has it that there was an ogress called Adachigahara  that haunted the plains  killing travellers and keeping their remains. In this particular battle a Buddhist Priest was saved against ogress Adachigahara  by keeping his faith and praying to the Buddha and escaped with his life.

The Fukishima Prefecture is represented by this unusual symbol in that of its remarkable resemblance to the symbol for nuclear radiation.   


The Fukishima City flag displays the sun with nine solar rays on the outside and nine on the inside with what appears to be a solar wheel in its center.The oddity here is that the sun rays are generally depicted with 8 rays or 16 rays. 

It's with this third symbol the flag for Fukishima City that things started turning towards a higher probability of coincidence again Why nine ? I had a reasonable search of sun logos and emblems on the internet and the sun was mostly represented with eight or with sixteen rays.With the nine solar rays prominent my immediate thoughts went the nine levels of consciousness an article I had just read and according to the author this Ninth wave of consciousness Ingcommenced on the 9th March 2011. My lack of trust with the western calendar to support my thoughts are as a result of the changes from the Julian to the Gregorian during the course of history to gain correct perspective. Its noteworthy though to remember that the our current calendar the Gregorian is also known as the sun calendar so there's another symbol to consider. But I went to the Mayan calendar as my source for reliability. As it is a calendar which has never been altered. Looking for some corroborative support things started falling into place. The nine levels of consciousness are assigned to the nine steps of the Mayan pyramid. We are on the ninth level of  consciousness and on the ninth step of the Mayan pyramid represented as the universal cycle. And it is said this battle is between the Sun and the Seven Macaw.

Occasionally I found myself looking at these images again and again to plant myself more firmly with what I am seeing here. To keep me grounded and put further weight on this information. Yes all that information is there it won't go away.

Further to that the Sun get's more than it's share of mention with prophecy without entering the possibility of solar flares. But history is replete with sun symbols from myths to various religions and would fill volumes. We still carry this symbol into our future and as I am to understand from prophecy it is battle between the sun and earth. So what better way to end this story by combining an old myth with the symbolism of new myth.


Japan is known as the land of the rising sun so what better place to conjure up a new mythical battle that can be seen. Nippon or Nihon means origins of the Sun. Japanese flag carries the sun as it symbol. Japan is also known as the land of earthquakes. So Japan is no stranger to doing battle with the Seven Macaw and his two sons whilst being under the protectorate of the sun.
I leave you with the last two images which are modern in mytholigical time. One is the Japanese flag representing the sun. THe land of the rising sun as it is known. The second symbol is the peace sign almost resembling the sign for radiation. The sun doing battle with the earth you decide.
