What do YOU feel is happening?

[OneGrassRoot]

For those of us who believe there are indeed people who can "tap into" things many others (as yet) can't - regardless of whether they're called psychics, intuitives, reader, etc. - what is your takeaway about the last year?

So many people in the woo world (said with affection) were on the same page for quite a while, and they still get on the same page periodically, but - as least as far as I can tell - what they see or feel hasn't panned out in a significant way. I think it is just as disconcerting for them. I realize most have talked about how bad October is going to be. Sure seems like it won't ease up in November.

Every time a certain someone appears on the verge of passing, he revives. I know it doesn't take woo skills to see what is in front of us during outings that show signs of health issues. Still, there always seems to be some semblance of a rebound.

And the energies in general are just chaotic. It feels like we're on some sort of energetic white water rapid, crashing on rocks frequently, and every time we think we see calm water, it's an illusion. Is the chaos being caused by the regime impacting things in an energetic way that we haven't experienced before?

I miss Rick DiClemente's astrological takes; he always seemed to have a grasp on the bigger picture.

Even if things are still a clusterfuck and it's hard to see the light, I definitely believe everything can shift instantly. I can't say I feel that's what will happen, but I believe it can and am holding space for that.

Just wondering how you all are feeling these days about this stuff?

1. I'm no psychic at all, but I do think that some see things far ahead of the present.

I still feel that Trump is trying to create a disaster scenario
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100220295160

in which he can gain dictatorial power before the Epstein matter explodes and takes down his Trump/Epstein blackmail empire and all its victims, enablers and lackeys.

All the confusion you feel is deliberate, and relentless, to obscure the Epstein matter.

He's not "in the list", he's the master blackmailer!

I've often likened our situation to time traveling to the 1930's or so, with a chance to stop fascism.

Hitler did not have a worldwide criminal blackmail empire. He used the traditional "fascist playbook" as did Franco and Mussolini et. al.

The Fascists’ Playbook
https://www.counterpunch.org/2023/05/08/the-fascists-playbook/

Where Putin is involved, I can't completely figure. He may have separate video on Trump and his beauty contests and "modeling agency"

So, I see two large forces at play.

1. The blackmailing of a huge swath of wealthy and powerful people, which must be done in secrecy, else it's not blackmail,

2. The bursting of said secrecy, because truth (and more specifically, despicable dirt) cannot be held secret. It's just human nature.

Given that the extent of cover up has now shut down the government and resulted in diversions as large as blowing up foreign boats, destruction of the White House, and every insane, brutal and destructive act this year, this is enormous beyond imagination.

Andrew has already gone down, and he's the first domino to fall.

One pin down, and so go the rest.

2. Thank you, usonian!

I truly appreciate the thoughtful reply and links.

Like you, I absolutely believe that if/when the Epstein info breaks open, it'll be a domino effect. And I'm encouraged by the fact that so many on the MAGA side are pissed about Trump & Co. obscuring it and calling it a Democratic hoax. I'm glad you feel Andrew was the first domino. Logically I know he's significant but I suppose because we don't hear much about him here in the states, it didn't feel as impactful as I would have hoped. Virginia's book does feel like a powerful catalyst though, so any day could be full of breaking news in this regard.

I guess I posed my question because, personally, my mood changes wildly these days. Very hopeful one day (last Saturday's protests, for example), then the next day it's shattered. I know my personal challenge is to keep my own shit steady in spite of what's happening out there, but I do feel I'm losing it of late and the mood doesn't always correlate with the day's events. I also realize, as you said, that's exactly what they want.

I'm rambling and not making any sense. lol Anyway, thanks again.

4. I try to keep an even keel. (and good luck with that)

I block/trash a lot of posts and as I posted recently, just put Trump on trash.

It's too much. He's destroying the United States to protect his "secret", and is ramping up the insanity to cover it.

But Mike has put a giant exclamation point on the scheme. ONE reason only for his recesses and shutdowns.

The unfortunate thing is that by posting links to articles here, which is standard operating procedure, we are amplifying his noise machine which monopolizes the media.

If nothing else, I want to point out the forest behind all those trees.

Distraction is one of the big D's in their plan, Let me see if I can remember them.

Distract
Divert
Discredit

(searches the web) There are so many

Deny, Deflect, Delay, and Don’t put anything into writing.

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/deny-divert-discredit-trump-turns-his-scandal-playbook-once-again-n1057181
It goes like this:
Step one: Deny the reports while arguing that even if true, there is nothing wrong with what was done.
Step two: Divert attention to a subplot that implicates political rivals.
Step three: Discredit investigators by accusing those involved of a deep state or partisan witch hunt.

WOW!
Letter: Trump leans on 10 D’s of opposition tactics
Without fail, he uses: deflect, delay, deny, discount, deceive, divide, dulcify, discredit, destroy and deal.

Letter to the editor of Mercury News. Copied here:

Once again, President Trump spewed forth that the Mueller investigation team is a “disgrace to our Nation.” In basic Psychology 101, this practice is known as projection — blame-shifting by people to defend themselves against their own guilt or unpleasantness.

In Donald’s world, this behavior appears in many of the “Donaldisms.” Without fail, he uses the 10 D’s of opposition tactics against accusers (read “enemies”): deflect, delay, deny, discount, deceive, divide, dulcify, discredit, destroy and deal.

When responding to even the slightest criticism, Donald goes on autopilot into his defense mechanisms. He also uses the tactic of repeating catchphrases multiple times during a statement. Thus, he attempts to control the conversation while thinking about his next utterance.

Note the 10 D’s the next time you’re stuck listening to Donald. You also might reference “The Art of War” (Sun Tzu, 5th century B.C.) to better understand the cognitions of a megalomaniac.

3. I see the world as completely random

like a deck of shoveled cards. The only control I have is how I play the hand I am dealt.

I have an inner locus of control.

5. Yeah, I've gotta get back to hour by hour...

I perfected that during my decade-long cancer journey. I need to live in that space again, purely present.
