Obamacare Is Less Pro-Life Than Anything We Were Told

Hālau ʻĀha Hūi Lanakila1 Comment

Millions of pro-life Americans don’t want their taxes subsidizing the killing of innocent unborn babies. This article uncovers President Obama’s lie that Obamacare doesn’t violate the Hyde Amendment, which bars federal funding for elective abortions.

One dot, that’s on or off, defines what is and what is not: one dot.
—”Growing Up” by Peter Gabriel

Tonight, the retelling of the story of the world begins. Tonight, celebrate the spark, the divine explosion, the first existence of the One.  One has not yet become Two—One is undifferentiated from Itself, yet has separated from the void of Unbeing.

Light the candle of potentiality. Stand on the threshold of wonder, the precipice of fragmentation, before the One explodes into infinite multitudes.

The kindling of flame
The kindling of the Wheel
The kindling of light and dark
The kindling of the Powers
May hope be kindled in the hearts of all
May your flame join the eternal Fire

Benjamin Fulford Update – Old reality fading quickly as pole shift now fully underway

Old reality fading quickly as pole shift now fully underway

http://benjaminfulford.net/

The collective story by which humanity has been herded into the future is undergoing a pole shift, and the old reality is fading rapidly. The story by which the world, especially the Western world, has been living in was one of a never-ending war on terror and an engineered clash between Islam and Christianity. The mass murdering criminals whose “social engineering” has perpetuated this story are being hunted down and killed or else are under house arrest or in hiding.

One of the most senior members of the cabal behind the atrocities in Syria and elsewhere, Bishop Javier Echevaria, the head of the fascist Opus Dei Vatican organization, was killed last week after he tried to overturn the election of Donald Trump as President of the United States, Pentagon sources say. The Vatican says he died of natural causes.

Pāli Word a Day for December 20, 2016 — anuṇṇata — not raised, not elated, not haughty, humble

Attā hi attano nātho;
ko hi nātho paro siyā?
Attanā hi sudantena,
nāthaṃ labhati dullabhaṃ.
One truly is the protector of oneself;
who else could the protector be?
With oneself fully controlled,
one gains a mastery that is hard to gain.

Tarot Contemplation – Four of Wands

It’s time to celebrate your accomplishments.  You’ve had success in your journey.  Take time to honor your hard work.  Today is a day for gratitude and celebration.  You are beginning to see the fruits of your labors.  Enjoy them!  Remember, you didn’t get to where you are all alone, so show your appreciation.  This card marks completion of some stage.  It could be a birthday, a wedding, a successful school exam, an anniversary, graduation, or the purchase of a new home.  Whatever has been completed, now is a time to look back on your accomplishment and take stock.  Give thanks to those people and for those things that have helped you get to where you are.  It’s also a time to look forward.  What has brought you this far?  What new things would you like to manifest as you move into the future?  The castle in the center of this card reflects your home environment.  Take this opportunity to reflect on what in your home enabled you to get to where you are now.  Give gratitude.  Think of ways to bring more of that supportive feeling in.  Notice the things in your environment that don’t contribute to the future vision you have for your life.  You now have the right attitude for making positive changes to your environment.  Lastly, you might need to mark a life transition with ceremony or ritual, even something small or private.  Bottom line:  celebrate yourself!

Pine Salt Infusion

Salt infusions are handy to keep around, and pine (or cedar*) is one of our favorites to make.  Both salt and pine are well known for their protective and purifying qualities.  But while salt is feminine and earthy, pine is masculine and tied to the air.  Combining these properties brings balance, creating a spell component that is more powerful then the sum of its parts.  And it’s quick and simple to make.

You will need coarse salt (usually labeled as kosher salt in any grocery store), fresh sprigs of pine, and a glass jar with a tight fitting lid.  It’s important to cut your pine sprigs from a wild tree. Not only for the connection to nature, but also because most commercially available pine is sprayed with pesticides and other chemicals for transport.  (Remember to take a moment and thank the tree for its gift.)  Place the fresh sprigs in the…

Monday 19/12/16 – Journey by the sea

Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

ladyMonday December 19th, 2016. Mercury in Capricorn goes into retrograde. Mars into Pisces. Mercury turns retrograde in the sign of Capricorn today, it will remain retrograde until January 8th. This  is the last time Mercury will be retrograde for the year and seeing it is in Capricorn it is a great time to revisit any plans that involve. Mercury is all about the way we think and when it’s in practical Capricorn we are in a good position to reevaluate professional or life path plans and goals. We may have little tolerance for small talk, as Capricorn isn’t about small nonsense chitchat. Today as Mercury stations itself, there can be cloudy thinking, judgment and misunderstandings. Think before you react today as you or someone you cross paths with today may be affected. …

It’s time for a new adventure! Anything is possible today!  Open your mind and say, “Yes!”  You’re only limited by your own doubts and fears.  So, today shake away your worries and take a chance.  Don’t make all the decisions about your path, or make assumptions about how it’ll be before you embark.  Stay open to surprises and unexpected opportunities.  Anything could happen if you leave room for possibilities.  Trust in the universe to keep you safe, then take the leap into the unknown!

Give generously, and not just to people you know.  The Spirit of the season is the same Spirit that thrives all year long … how sad that we choose to remember it’s Presence for a few scant weeks, and only around this time of year.  Resolve to cease BEing superficial now and from this day forward:  Walk your Talk.  Be Mindful and Compassionate every day of the coming year … and let it begin today.  Aloha kekahi i kekahi … Let’s love one another, now and always.  Mele Kalikimaka e Hau’oli Makahiki Hou oukou … Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, everyone.  One Love!
