WARNING: Aspartame Has Been Renamed And Is Now Being Marketed As A “Natural” Sweetener: Amino Sweet – Herbs Info

Aspartame has in fact been linked to seizures and a host of other major health issues including fatal cardiovascular events in women. Recent studies (we’ve found them!) have shown that not only does artificial sweetener intake have an association with diabetes, it also increases the risk for heart, kidney, and brain damage.

The Rub: Chef Robert Hesse and When Pigs Fly

CPM's avatarCook Plant Meditate

hesse boys wpfbbq

You have to have a good rub to start some good BBQ, and there’s some exciting news in the BBQ world! Two-time Hell’s Kitchen contestant and celebrity chef Robert Hesse is shedding his Executive Chef’s coat for a brand new one and starting a new venture – in BBQ. Chef gave CPM the rub.

Chef met up with the Zimmerman Brothers of the former ZeBro’s Harbor House in Westfield, NY and created a new restaurant – When Pigs Fly BBQ Pit. “I knew right away when I walked into ZeBro’s that it was time to make a change.” That change would be for Chef and for ZeBro’s.

ZeBro’s was a popular place at one time but became an identity lost in extensive zebra themed décor, prime rib, frog legs, and hot wings. Chef Hesse could see that the restaurant needed a lot of love and change. And Chef Hesse…

Tarot Contemplation – Three of Wands

tarot_3wands

You’re breaking through a significant barrier to your financial success today … and it’s been a long-time coming, but worth it.  Work is going well and is continuing in a very positive way.  Those relationships around you that are doing well will continue to prosper so long as there is a mutual exchange to maintain balance.  If you are in search of a partner, then making the time to develop your personal life now will provide the opportune moments that place you in the right space at the right time with that right someone.  Even though your finances are improving, continue to sock away funds for those rainy days and monitor your spending because these are the habits that will allow you to prosper financially.  Your health situation is improving because of the attention you’ve been paying to it lately, which adds to the feel-good vibe that Spring drifting into Summer brings.  But, don’t be afraid of change or new information and don’t hesitate to consider alternative ways to treat or deal with health and spiritual challenges. Realize that if you are paying attention at all, you are growing, and thus views can and ought to change and develop over time.

Jupiter Square Saturn 2016-05-26

First, you might want to peek at our analysis of this aspect on March 23, 2016 and August 3, 2015.  The perfection of today’s square is the third in a three party sequence, and we will not see a similar pattern repeat until 2024 / 2025.

Before we address the regular patterns, we should note some remarkable fifth harmonic activity.  Two triangular patterns composed of fifth harmonic activity are present.  One is formed by Juno (in Scorpio; trust v. betrayal, wives, sisters, daughters) at the apex and Sun in Gemini on one leg and Chiron in Pisces on the other.  This Jupiter / Saturn square has this particularly powerful pattern in play.  Jupiter/Saturn aspects are associated with changes in the financial markets, and we note that issues of trust (Juno) have become important (if you do not know this, then you need to watch “

Daily Words of the Buddha for May 23, 2016

Qi Zhi
Bahumpi ce saṃhita bhāsamāno,
na takkaro hoti naro pamatto,
gopova gāvo gaṇayaṃ paresaṃ,
na bhāgavā sāmaññassa hoti.

Much though one recites the sacred texts,
but acts not accordingly,
that heedless one is like a cowherd
who only counts the cows of others —
one does not partake of the blessings of the holy life.
Dhammapada 1.19

Meditate, Relax and Heal The Body at 528 Hz

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xpI00ShS4M

Wavelength of 528 Nm (#Emerald Seagreen)

Solfeggio is a music education method used to teach pitch, and sight singing. Guido of Arezzo (991/992 – after 1033) is credited with developing our current techniques for teaching, such as staff notation and the Solfeggio “ut–re–mi–fa–so–la” ( ♪ do–re–mi–fa–so–la) mnemonic, popularized in modern times by The Kodály Method taught in schools. The 6 note ascending scale’s names were taken from the first verse of the Latin hymn Ut queant laxis (To Be Loosened,) where the syllables fall on their corresponding scale degree:

396 Hz | Ut (Do) queant laxīs, ♪: http://is.gd/xNz3io
417 Hz | Resonāre fībrīs, ♪: http://is.gd/FL3TTn
528 Hz | Mīra gestõrum ♪: Miracle Transformation
639 Hz | Famulī tuõrum, ♪: http://is.gd/XecCSk
741 Hz | Solve pollūtī ♪: http://is.gd/nDLpEl
852 Hz | Labiī reātum ♪: http://is.gd/hhDNn2

The words of the hymn were written by Paulus Diaconus in the 8th century. Paraphrased:” Do let our voices, Resonate most purely, Miracles telling, Far greater than many; So let out tongues be, Lavish in your praises.”

The 3’rd note, Mīra gestõrum (528 Hz) is apparently the exact frequency that genetic biochemists used to restore broken DNA (basic light/ sound waves.) Confirmed by Biochemist Dr. Lee Lorenzen (BA in Biology from the University of California at Berkeley, UCI School of Medicine, Research Associate in the Department of Pharmacology, Biology at Cal State Fullerton, Metropolitan Collegiate Institute,) who’s been awarded two US Patents on Clustered Water™ technology. He and biochemist Steve Chemiski discovered that “6 Sided Water Clusters” vibrating at 528 Hz form the supportive matrix of healthy DNA.

The structure of DNA reflects Marko Rodin’s “Infinity Pattern” & features Solfeggio numbers. Ancient Pi was 3.142857 (△= Prism, π = Infinite Refraction.)

.142857142857142857142857142857142857142­857142857 ➀ (△π = 3.142857, decimals repeated)

528 cycles Up & Right, while 741 cycles in the opposite direction Down & Left. This is consistent with the “Devil’s Interval” designated in musicology as the dissonant combination of these two specific tones. Instruments can be tuned to A444(.09 or +16 cents) to play Solfeggio, with 528 Hz as Middle C.

Solfeggio also appears in Douglas G. Preston’s Toroidal Scale:

Nicola Tesla tells us, “If you only knew the magnificence of the 3, 6 and 9, then you would have a key to the universe.” When Dr. Leonard Horowitz’s additional 3 frequencies (174, 285, & 963) are added to the original 6, “completing the perfect cycle of sound,” the 3rd, 6th, and 9th frequencies become 396, 639, 963.

Pythagoras told us to reduce every number to 1 digit (i.e. 15 = 1+5 = 6.) We find the root vibrational #’s of Solfeggio frequencies are alternating 3’s, 6’s, & 9’s.

As Martin Rees, author of “Just Six Numbers” puts it, “These six numbers constitute a recipe for the universe.” He adds that if any one of the numbers were different “even to the tiniest degree, there would be no stars, no complex elements, no life.” (From Discovery Magazine.)

Tarot Contemplation – King of Wands

tarot_KingWands

The King is back around to check in with you yet again!   He’s boosting your confidence and ambition to do more at work and at play.  This King is ruled by Saggitarius, and we just enjoyed a beautiful Saggitarian Full Moon last Saturday.  Saggitarius is synonamous with the vibe of “I perceive”.  Your perceptions about the world and people around you reveal that you remain supported in your efforts and appreciated.  Progress feels good, doesn’t it?   Still toying with the notion of starting your own business, or some other entrepreneurial endeavor?  Perhaps the King will suggest an idea that will become a lucrative source of additional income.  If you receive the inspiration to head in that direction, do a little research and brainstorm the possibilities.  Going with the flow further expands your spiritual horizons.

6 Ways To Detox Fluoride – A Known Neurotoxin – From Your Body

For years, health experts have been debating about whether or not sodium fluoride is toxic to the human body. Small amounts applied topically may prevent tooth decay, but there is little evidence suggesting that fluoride improves health when it is ingested. In fact, according to the world’s oldest and most prestigious medical journal, The Lancet, […]

Recipe:  Banh Mi Spring Rolls


Banh Mi typically refers to a Vietnamese sandwich of grilled pork or chicken, pickled veggies and fresh herbs. For this dish, I did a quick pickling of carrots and Daikon radish, added some chicken breast seasoned with Chinese five spice powder and added in some fresh cucumber and mint leaves as well. It’s all rolled together in a spring roll rice paper wrapper for a meal that’s light, refreshing and perfect for summer.

Ah, onward and upward, and this Knight is the bearer of good news and positive vibes.  Things are beginning to smooth down for you at work and projects are proceeding better than you expected.  A definite improvement from the other day.  If you’re dating or looking, this Knight says you’re about to meet someone who’s going to sweep you off your feet!  In an established relationship, you and your partner are getting along much better and feeling very committed to each other.  Your finances are shaping up and good news is headed your way.  If you’re in the process of sorting out what you have on your books, be assured that your finances don’t look as bad as you might think.  Paying closer attention to your health is yielding positive test results, and that means you are beginning to accomplish your health goals.  Be sure to go into meditation today.  Take the time, because Spirit is bringing a message to you … either through circumstance or a person … that will further expand your spiritual understanding about the Way It Is.

Aloha kākahiaka e Hauʻoli lā Pōʻaono nā Kanaka. Aʻia i kā ʻolelo no ke ʻola, aʻia i kā ʻolelo no ka make. Ō kā maluhia no me ʻoe.

Good morning and Happy Saturday, People. In speech is life, in speech is death. In ancient Hawai’i, a kahuna ‘ana’ana could pray someone to death or counter another’s death prayer. The saying tells the Hawaiians that words can either be a source for healing or destroying and so we need to be careful with our words. Peace be with you.

Tarot Contemplation – The Hanged Man

Hawaiian_Tarot_HangedMan_12

We’re at a crossroads on our Fool’s spiritual journey … we must decide whether to expand our perspective, or not.  Yes, or no … in, or out … up, or down … what to do, and how to do it.  Don’t make rash decisions.  Stop, relax and look at the variables … breathe in your choices, breathe out confidence and trust in yourself.  How does your heart feel about the situation, or the person, in question?  Perhaps this is a moment where continuing to say if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it no longer serves your Highest Good.  Are you clinging to old ideas/ways because it’s comfortable, or are you now ready to let go?  Embracing change might be the precise remedy to your quandry.  The question is whether you best serve your interests in the long run to change.  Of course, we all say we know the obvious answer, but will YOU do it?  This time, telling yourself to let it go and let it flow might be the smartest direction.  If it’s negative, let it go.  Don’t settle.

Tarot Contemplation – Ten of Swords

10swords

Be wary of where and with whom you place your trust.  Whether you are questioning whether to believe in or trust an individual, or whether a situation is stable and can be relied upon, the answer is “no”.  However, remember the old adage, “as one door closes, another door opens.”  There are better opportunities opening to you further along on your journey, so take heart and trust yourself and trust the Universe that you are being guided to that new destination.  Relative to work, this sign indicates that your work situation is about to come to an end, so it’s best to prepare now to make a move.  You might have been treated badly by someone, but don’t waste your energies trying to even the score.  Move on and persevere.  Something is also amiss with your partner, therefore, don’t close your eyes and ignore it.  Deal with the situation now and, if it results in a break in relations, keep your head up, take a deep breath, and move forward.  Money matters may bring disappointment to you today, so don’t gamble or take any risks.  As with anything that goes up, it eventually falls and this is the valley you are in now.  Remember that you anticipate these situations and hopefully prepared accordingly.  Don’t beat yourself up; press on.  Similarly, on your health front, perhaps you overestimated (or underestimated) your actual body health situation by listening to another that gave you less than candid advice.  No worries.  Consider alternative treatment methods you uncover doing your own research now.  Spiritually, you feel you are able to disengage from long-held beliefs and ideas that now appear to be obstacles to expanding your understanding about the Way It Is.  Make the break from the past, and embrace the fact that this choice is a good thing in spite of any guilt or pain you might feel about that choice.

Greetings and Happy Thursday. “Do Not Disturb the Water That is Tranquil.” When you find yourself not enjoying the peace and quiet of a supposed relaxing day, remind yourself not to interrupt your own peaceful thoughts. It’s not always easy but it sure makes for a refreshed soul when life starts back up again. Peace be with you.
